ign0ramuscjae, you should be able to click the swirl on the far right and then slide icons along the panel00:06
OceanwatcherA real newbie question: How do you check how much RAM there is in a computer when you are running Kubuntu? Also, is there a good application for doing the "inventory" of a system? Something that can collect data about all hardware?00:09
OceanwatcherI know about a couple of applications like that for Windows, but have not got that far in Kubuntu yet.00:10
ign0ramusOceanwatcher, the "top" command will show you RAM, as well as the command "free -m It"00:13
cjaeok what the widget called that does the mounting of removable media00:13
Oceanwatcherign0ramus: Thank you. Trying now.00:13
solifuguswtf is ubuntu 9.04 code named as?00:14
cjaeit looks like a cd usb combo00:14
ign0ramussolifugus, jaunty jackalope00:14
solifugus(so i can figure which panda3d .dev file i need to download for it)00:14
solifugusah.. ok00:14
ign0ramuscjae, device notifier?00:14
cjaeI think so thanks00:14
ign0ramuscjae, that's the one that notifies when you plug in a flash drive, etc00:15
cjaeyes00:16
cjaeok and the one that has workspace 1 2 3 400:17
cjaeI would call it workspace switcher00:17
cjaebut...00:17
ign0ramuscjae, is it 'pager'?00:17
cjaeoh that makes sense00:17
cjae thanks00:17
ign0ramuscjae, i think its a counterintuitive name, but that's what it is :/00:18
cjaeign0ramus, thanks for your help, I agree these are some not so easy to relate names00:19
ign0ramuscjae, np. i still wish we could agree to call them 'plasmoids' instead of 'widgets', but oh well.00:20
cjaewish there was a simple command that let you put this all back, without erasing most of .kde00:20
ign0ramuscjae, well now that you know what they're all called, it shouldn't take more than a minute or two ;)00:21
SerpardumAnyone alive in having some problems installing programs in kubuntu in VMWare00:27
cjaeyeah, should be able to00:27
SerpardumI don't remember the comand to see running processes. thought it was pu but not00:28
cjaeign0ramus, thanks again, would have taken me long time the other way : -)00:28
ign0ramuscjae, happy to help :)00:28
mandingoceodoes any1 know what kernel i can upgrade to under 710 to get a xfx geforce 8200 mobo chipset recognized00:29

phhmandingoceo: maybe just update the whole thing ...00:31
mandingoceothats the problem i cant00:31
mandingoceoim running linuxmce on it00:31
phhbuild the kernel by hand would be the easier way.00:31
SerpardumHmm..... changes ays Beneith-a-steel-sky  BROKEN (installed)00:32
mandingoceobut the kernel that comes with 710 install doesnt support my chipset00:32
mandingoceoim a noob so forgive me here but is there a patch i could just patch the kernel00:32
phhno00:33
Serpardum"Could  not commit changes - Adept Intaller"  There was an error commiting changes.  Possibly there was a problem downloading some packages or the commit would break packages.00:33
ign0ramusSerpardum, most likely dependency issues... what happens if you do a "sudo apt-get build-dep <packagename>" ?00:34
SerpardumI"m unsintalling them right now.  It seems that one used an engine that wouldn't download.00:35
Serpardumalthough it never gave me a message about that00:35
phhmandingoceo: try the 0810 beta00:35
ign0ramusSerpardum, that's why terminal is the best!00:36
mandingoceoman i have been fighting that for the longest its just not solid enough yet00:36
Serpardumignoramus, I would tend to agree.00:36
phhmandingoceo: then install it from a working and update the kernel by hand and then move the hard drive.00:37
mandingoceostill pnp problems etc and the journal writes to the drives kills playback under 81000:37

Serpardum*report00:38
ign0ramusSerpardum, it's most likely an issue on your side... best bet is to ask in their forums/chatroom etc00:38
SerpardumHmm.. seems it might be midi problems00:40
lessgov2007blogsHi everyone I have a question. I'm experiencing total freezes with Kubuntu Jaunty. I am thinking it could be from the way I was automounting my secondary hard disk, and having Amarok read this drive for my music collection. I added this to my fstab "/dev/sdb1 /home/haunted/40GB ext4 defaults 0 0" It did seem to read the hard disk very slow, can anyone tell me if this is wrong?00:40
=== _Whipper_ is now known as Whipper_
ign0ramuslessgov2007blogs, have you tried running the 'top' command to see what is taking up resources?00:43
phhand/or iotop00:43
lessgov2007blogsYes, actually I have it running now. But, it hasm't froze up yet since I started lol.00:43
ign0ramuslessgov2007blogs, well try reading/writing from the secondary HDD, and see if any processes go haywire00:44
ign0ramuslessgov2007blogs, rebuild your collection or something00:44
lessgov2007blogsI removed my automount, and it does read the hard disc a lot faster now. If it does not freeze, I'll add it again the same way and try to reproduce the lock up. My main question was what I added to the fstab, it was reading the drive very slowly, and I was thinking what I added was likely incorrect way of doing it?00:45
Serpardumapt-get --help and man apt-get did not show me how to list hte application names (sudo apt-get build-dep ScummVM responded ScummVM wasn't in list )  How can I see applicaiton names?00:45
ign0ramusSerpardum, 'sudo apt-get scummvm' then press tab key twice00:46
ign0ramus* 'apt-get install'00:46
Serpardumit was scummvm, nto ScummVM.  thx00:47
ign0ramusSerpardum, case is important!00:47
SerpardumHmm.. build-dependencies for scummvm could not be satisfied.00:48
Serpardumyes, but it was listed as ScummVM in Adept Installer00:48
SerpardumOkahy, it keeps trying to install libflluidsynth1.   gotta find out what's wrong with that.  time to google I guess.00:49
ign0ramusSerpardum, these are the dependencies i have listed for jaunty: http://rafb.net/p/4pNIDR21.html00:49
ign0ramusSerpardum, http://packages.ubuntu.com/jaunty/libfluidsynth100:50
SerpardumOkay, it's tryign to install libfluidsynthl, libfreebob0, libjack0, libjack0.100.0-0.  I cant' see why it won't in Adept Installer.  How do I find the problem?00:50
SerpardumI"ll try apt-get one at a time I guess *shrug*00:51
SerpardumI forgot the fun of linux :/00:51
ign0ramusSerpardum, use 'build-dep' in terminal... see where there's an issue00:51
SerpardumNothing is EVER easy00:51
Whipper_lol, its easy if u want it to be :)00:51
ign0ramusSerpardum, at least in Linux you can see why a program won't install00:52
Serpardumreally?  Adept Installer isn't showing me.00:52
ign0ramusSerpardum, use terminal!00:52
SerpardumAdept Installer is working worst than Windows Installer in this case ^^00:52
Daskreech_Serpardum: Some stuff must be easy00:52
lessgov2007blogsAnyone else had total freeze ups trying to install hplip? I had to install from console with kdm stopped, otherwise it would lock the system up?00:52
Whipper_yes00:53
SerpardumOkay, lets see.  Libfluidsynthl: depends: libjack0.100.0-0 (>= 0.101.1) but it is not going to be installed00:53
lessgov2007blogsNo worries, it's working good for me. Just wondering if it was just my system or anyone elses.00:54
Whipper_<ign0ramus> Serpardum, use terminal!00:54
Whipper_isnt this "ubuntu" thing suppose to be GUI ?-)00:54
ign0ramusWhipper_, it can be if you don't care what's happening and why00:54
Whipper_hm.. or thats what they say on theur web-site :)00:54
Serpardumwhipper, that's what it says in terminal.  I guess the apt-get is wrong in that it tries to install 0.100.0-0 instaead of 0.101..000:54
ign0ramusSerpardum, "sudo apt-get install libjack0.100.0-0    libjack0.100.0-dev" doesn't work00:55
Whipper_ign0ramus, i know, but if someone is newbie, then terminal is hard00:55
ign0ramusSerpardum, oh no - that won't work00:55
lessgov2007blogsOh I do have another question... kpackagekit, it gives me an error, I can't remember exactly what it says, something along the lines of a time out, need to fork!, something like that. Anyone know what's with this?00:55
ign0ramusWhipper_, in most cases, something a newbie wants can be done via gui00:56
Serpardumign0ramues.  It doesn't work, doesn't exist, yet libfluidsynth1 requires it00:56
Whipper_ign0ramus, well.. not totally true with Kub904..00:56
Serpardumso, scummvm is a bust.00:56
Serpardumnow gotta find out who to tell that it's borked00:58
ign0ramusSerpardum, libfluidsynth1 requires "libjack-dev" & "libjack0.100.0-dev"00:58
SerpardumNot according to my apt-get00:58
lessgov2007blogsOkay, here's the error kpackagekit gives me. The backend took too much time to process the synchronous request - you need to fork!00:58
Serpardumand I did apt-get update00:59
ign0ramusSerpardum, so what does "sudo apt-get build-dep libfluidsynth1" tell you?00:59
Serpardumyeah, just did that and thinking about tryign that right now, although I did try to sudo apt-get install libfluidsynth1 and it told me it needed 0.10101:00
Serpardumthis one doens't give me version numbers.01:00
Serpardumthe following NEW packages will be installed:01:00
Serpardumand it lists 3 lines worth01:00
ign0ramusSerpardum, so if they install, you can install libfluidsynth101:01

ign0ramusDaskreech_, well, they've been moved to 'archive'01:08
Serpardumlots of 404 errors :(01:09
ign0ramusSerpardum, is there a reason to stay on 7.10? it's reached it's EOL and you'll probably have better luck installing packages on a supported version with working repos01:09
Serpardumhopefully --fix-missing will fix it01:09
SerpardumI looked at the directory and that was the most current?  I'm running virtual machine01:09
Serpardumis there one > 7.10 vm?01:09

Serpardumokay, seems to be working  now01:10
ign0ramusSerpardum, :)01:11
Serpardumworked. ^^01:12
ign0ramusSerpardum, and so you now see how terminal rules.01:12
Serpardumyes, but in windows I wouldn't have to do this.  I'm not saying windows is better01:12
lessgov2007blogsyep01:12
Serpardumbut it would be better if a l inux installer actualy worked without the user having to edit files, etc..01:12
WalzmynThis is freaking ridiculous01:12
ign0ramusSerpardum, no, you'd get a cryptic "not a valid win32 application", with no clues as to where to begin :)01:13
lessgov2007blogsYou can do the sources list through the package manager if I'm not mistaken.01:13
Daskreech_Serpardum: you are on a distro where the servers have been shut off. :)01:13

SerpardumI mean there just ain't that many for linux01:24
Daskreech_Serpardum: oh wow.. ok01:24
Serpardumunless you run virtual machine for windows in linux01:24
Walzmynactually linux can do games quite well. The drivers we're left with can't01:24
Serpardumthis is actually runnign rather well01:24
Serpardumactually wurm works in linux01:24
Daskreech_Serpardum: There are hundreds of games for linux. There are not a lot of commercial games01:24
ign0ramustux racer is surprisingly addictive01:25
Serpardumyeah, I've played most of those games01:25
Walzmynlinux uses much less resources whan winders so it'll run better virtual than winders01:25
WalzmynSerpardum, does have a point. I miss Civ 4 and Diablo II01:25
SerpardumI acutaly had another box I was goign to install linux to but gave it to a friend, but it died01:25

moihallo!01:26
WalzmynHere's a secret though - blizzard writes their games in linux01:26
ign0ramusWalzmyn, SHHH!!!01:26
Daskreech_Serpardum: type sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade01:26
SerpardumI've heard that MacOS runs on linux/unix01:26
Walzmynor, rather on linux boxes, they're still written for winders01:26
Daskreech_Walzmyn: Yeah that helps us how? :-)01:27
ign0ramusSerpardum, Macs run on a version of BSD which is Unix-based01:27
Walzmynthe core of OSX is from BSD Unix, with their GUI on top01:27
ign0ramusSerpardum, different than "Linux", though01:27
Serpardumnothign Daskreech_01:27
WalzmynDaskreech_, well, it dosen't relaly help. but it does give hope01:27
Daskreech_Serpardum: When that's done try sudo do-release-upgrade01:27
SerpardumDaskreech_: : no files ther eto find.  0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded01:28
WalzmynSerpardum, does the virtual machine have 'net access?01:28
Serpardumtryign that01:28
ign0ramusd'oh!01:28
SerpardumI"m on the virtual machine here so I hope so ^^01:28
Serpardumit's reading stuff01:28
Serpardumlets find out what happens ^^01:29
WalzmynSerpardum, ok. t'was just checking01:29
Serpardumthjis would be cool if it works without tryign to overwrite my MBR01:29
WalzmynDaskreech_, you have any idea what I can do about my filesystem errors?01:29
ign0ramusWalzmyn, get your drive checked would be a good start01:29
WalzmynDaskreech_, there's a bug on launchpad where a couple other people are having hte same trouble01:29
ign0ramusWalzmyn, does it matter if you try ext3 or ext4?01:29
Walzmynign0ramus, i've done the fsck check, what else?01:30
SerpardumHmm.. installing linux-headers-2.6.24-16 as dep of linux headers-2.6.24-16-generic.  looking good01:30
Walzmynign0ramus, when i upgraded it was ext3, i've used ext4 on all the reinstalls01:30
Walzmynign0ramus, same results01:30
Daskreech_Walzmyn: what is the error?01:30
Walzmynslowly apps stop working, then when i restart i'm told the FS is currpted and i need to fsck.01:31
WalzmynWhen I fsck I will get a thousand errors01:31
WalzmynSometimes it's a thousand in / and a few in /home, sometimes reversed01:31
Daskreech_Walzmyn: do you have that log?01:31
WalzmynDaskreech_, of the fsck results?01:31
SerpardumHas there been any more talk about writing the linux core in c++?01:31
Daskreech_yes01:32
Daskreech_Serpardum: always01:32
Daskreech_Answer is always the same01:32
tekteenSerpardum, you shouldn't :-P01:32
Serpardumnew is a pain01:32
Daskreech_Go and do it and stop bothering us01:32
Serpardumit's all because of c++'s memory managment that makes it hard, I know01:32
WalzmynDaskreech_, i've still got the terminal window open (i'm on live cd) I guess i can copy paste it01:32
SerpardumWait, is that the answer now?  Go ahead and write it in c++ and quit bugging us?  that has changed01:33

WalzmynDaskreech_, i'm on an Xubuntu one right now01:37
WalzmynDaskreech_, i was tring different flavors to see if the problem was KDE01:38
Daskreech_Walzmyn: install smartmontools01:38
SevenhillDaskreech_: but there isn't any info for 9.04 -> 9.10 in those pages01:38
WalzmynDaskreech_, how?01:39
SerpardumI wonder if your hard drive is flakey Walzmyn01:39
WalzmynSerpardum, that e2fsck (is that the right command?) said everyting was fine01:39
Daskreech_Sevenhill: Duh. 9.10 :-) Why do you want to run 9.10 ?01:39
Daskreech_!info smartmontools01:39
ubottusmartmontools (source: smartmontools): control and monitor storage systems using S.M.A.R.T.. In component main, is optional. Version 5.38-2ubuntu2 (jaunty), package size 322 kB, installed size 804 kB01:39
WalzmynSerpardum, everything was working fine before i tried to upgrade, and winders is running just fine (damnit)01:39
WalzmynDaskreech_, how do i install that while i'm running a live cd?01:40
Daskreech_Walzmyn: fsck doesn't check the drive it checks the filesystem.01:40
Daskreech_Walzmyn: same way you install when you are not using the liv Cd01:40
Walzmynhuh01:41
SevenhillDaskreech_: because of intel video driver problems in 2.6.28 and i'm a newbei kde developer and i need some newer versions of libraries ( such as  boost 1.3.5 )01:41
WalzmynWhere's it installing them?01:41
Daskreech_Sevenhill: can I assume this is a spare machine that can be screwed up ?01:41
SevenhillDaskreech_: i got my /home directory in a diffrent partition if you ask that01:42
ign0ramusWalzmyn, into memory, i would assume.01:42
wereamiHEllo everyone01:43
SevenhillDaskreech_:  so reinstalling new verion (9.10) won't delete any of my files including my kde-trunk but i'm a bit lazy to reinstall it :) thats the why i'm asking if there is a way to just upgrade it via apt-get or someother things01:43
WalzmynDaskreech_, it's installed01:44
Daskreech_Walzmyn: open a konsole and run it on the hard drive01:44
wereamiI am new to linux (ubuntu) Running Kubuntu 9.0.4, I have found some stuff on the net like tutorials and it seems they all expect you have some knowledge of linux. is there a site with more newbie type info.01:44
WalzmynDaskreech_, smartmontools /dev/sda3  ???01:45
ign0ramuswereami, the (k)ubuntuforums, and here!01:45
Daskreech_Sevenhill: Honestly asking that question disqualifies you from running 9.10 currently I wouldn't suggest you run it on your main machine01:45
wereamisorry for the lame question but thank ignor01:45
Walzmynwereami, not a lame questoin, we all had to learn01:45
Daskreech_wereami: And here. We can answer newb questions awell01:46
Daskreech_Sevenhill: No offence01:46
wereamijust a bit rough from running windows my whole life01:46
Daskreech_wereami: IT is hard we understand01:46
WalzmynDaskreech_, $smartmontools is not a valid command, how do you call this thing?01:46
Daskreech_CDDW01:46
ign0ramuswereami, i feel for you.  i migrated 2 years ago01:46
Serpardumwereami: You'll find in all linux places a lot of people seem contemptuos of people who don't know linux.  They're really not, they may seem that way, and you just have to deal with it :D01:46
Daskreech_Walzmyn: type smart and press tab twice01:46
SevenhillDaskreech_: i have to install it :) otherwise i all need to compile some of libraries by manual and that makes all things mess01:46
wereamiyah thats not a big issue. I am the same way with things I am fluent with also01:47
* Serpardum shudders at tyring to compile libraries manually01:47
Daskreech_Sevenhill: ok You do understand that it's broken right?01:47
SerpardumI tried compling debian one time.  I still have nightmares about that.01:47
SevenhillDaskreech_: sure i'm using linux to live with bugs :)01:48
ign0ramusSerpardum, even gentoo now has a cute little installer... times have changed01:48
Daskreech_Sevenhill: can you survive without X ?01:48
Daskreech_for say two weeks?01:48
SerpardumI started on redhat years ago01:48
Serpardumbefore that I learned unix in a school01:48
ign0ramusDaskreech_, trying to develop for kde would be a little tough without X, wouldn't you say?01:49
Serpardumbefore that was DOS 2.001:49
Daskreech_ign0ramus: not always01:49
Serpardumbefore that IBMOS01:49
Serpardumbefore that wang basic ^^01:49
ign0ramusSerpardum, you been around :)01:49
SevenhillDaskreech_: i can survive but i couldn't test my code without X :)01:49
SerpardumI got lucky, lived a block from a community college that let a 10 year old kid in their computer room01:49
Daskreech_Sevenhill: then run sudo do-release-upgrade -d and note that you were warned01:50
* ign0ramus plays ominous music01:50
WalzmynDaskreech_, this thing is spitting out a lot of info, but there's nothing marked in the fail column01:50
Sevenhillby the way what is the problem about X in 9.10 ?01:50
Daskreech_Walzmyn: that's good so far01:51
Daskreech_Sevenhill: I don't know but history says there will be one in about 3 weeks01:51
wereamisomeone here help with a newb issue I am assuming01:52

epimethCoJaBo-Aztec: yes but for me it was buggy... I had to download the gnome packages, too.  This was back in gutsy tho so it might be improved?02:50
SerpardumOkay, well, the patch file is broken, stupid things like missspelling controller with one l02:50
Serpardumother things I can't figure out since the patch is rejecting it02:51
Serpardummaybe I can download kubunto .iso and upgrade from that?02:51
CoJaBo-Aztecepimeth: I guess not. The text entry fields in Jaunty are not even functional!?02:51
Serpardumlet me try "rebooting" and see what happens02:51
epimethCoJaBo-Aztec: let me see...02:51
astromme_laptopepimeth: hmm, I guess neon works. One issue is that it is completely separate from my normal kde02:52
astromme_laptopi.e. doesn't follow the theme, etc..02:52
CoJaBo-AztecTheres an option right in networkmanager, why put it there if it does nothing?02:52
Serpardumoh wtf, it changed my password I set?02:52
Daskreech_Serpardum: you can02:52
astromme_laptopCoJaBo-Aztec: The NM widget in Jaunty was pulled from the kde playground code repository02:52
epimethastromme_laptop: oh?  what do you mean?02:52
astromme_laptopIt is totally feasable that it might contain completely unfinished features, unfortunately02:53
SerpardumOkay, I"ll have ot wipe this one, copy the virtual machine again, reboot, download the iso, upgrade02:53
Serpardumsee you on teh flipside02:53
epimethSerpardum: adios02:53
astromme_laptopepimeth: I was just curious if there was one that replaced the current amarok package, all that. But it's right, this will do. Thanks :)02:53
* astromme_laptop wishes him good luck02:53
epimethahh... kay :-)02:53
CoJaBo-Aztecastromme_laptop: Any chance this trend will end in future versions?02:53
epimethCoJaBo-Aztec: did you install the cisco package?02:53
astromme_laptopCoJaBo-Aztec: yes. I hear murmurs of kubuntu pushing an updated version in jaunty-updates or something like that02:54
epimethThey are brining back KNetworkManager?  I thought we were sticking with the new plasmid?02:54
astromme_laptopCoJaBo-Aztec: And the widget itself will move out of playground in the future (not sure of a timeframe) in which case it will be held to higher quality standards02:54
CoJaBo-Aztecepimeth: No, just saw the option right in network manager, just assumed it would work. Guess thats yet another thing I need to put in a Windows VM?02:55
astromme_laptopepimeth: no, iirc we're sticking with the plasmoid (widget). It's just called the Network Management (NM) plasmoid02:55
astromme_laptopCoJaBo-Aztec: There is an experimental package that might have support02:55
epimethCoJaBo-Aztec: ??? cisco isn't installed by default tho... at least not for me!  Did you upgrade or fresh install?02:55
astromme_laptopCoJaBo-Aztec: actually, it's the cisco vpn? I should try that, I'm running it from sources02:55
astromme_laptopCoJaBo-Aztec: VPNC or OpenVPN?02:56
epimethoh...lol... vpnc.... my bad :-)02:56
CoJaBo-Aztecastromme_laptop: VPNC, the one that lists a "Cisco VPN" option in its non-functional config screen.02:57
epimethCoJaBo-Aztec: do you want to give me the login info so I can test?02:57
CoJaBo-Aztec...02:57
epimethI can enter info just fine02:57
astromme_laptopwtf02:57
astromme_laptopdon't give your info02:57
CoJaBo-Aztecepimeth: Does it save it?02:57
astromme_laptopCoJaBo-Aztec: do you mean in the "Optional Information" tab? Some fields are always greyed out for me02:58
CoJaBo-Aztecastromme_laptop: Required info does not save, and optional info cannot be entered.02:59
epimethof course I'll *understand* if you don't give me the info, I just don't know of any VPN I can test with!02:59
CoJaBo-Aztecepimeth: Put in fake info, and see if it is still there when you click edit again. Also see if the optional info can be entered.03:00
astromme_laptopCoJaBo-Aztec: not saved here. Looks like an unimplemented feature, sorry :(03:01
CoJaBo-AztecSo why leave it there for release?03:02
astromme_laptopCoJaBo-Aztec: Well, the applet hasn't been released by its developer, so it's fine that it's in from his perspective I'm sure03:02
astromme_laptopAnd Kubuntu didn't remove it03:02
astromme_laptopso I guess in a way the kubuntu devs could have edited the applet to remove that screen03:03
SerpardumDo I want the Desktop CD or the Live CD?03:03
astromme_laptopwhich might have been the right idea, but it didn't happen. dunno03:03
epimethCoJaBo-Aztec: yea, it looks like VPNC is still not supported in kubuntu... however, if it works like it did in prior versions then you just have to install the gnome network manager and when you save the info there you will be able to connect through the kubuntu one03:03
SerpardumI need to upgrade inside of kubuntu itself03:03
astromme_laptopSerpardum: either works? Live CD is probably what you want if you don't have lvm, raid03:03
astromme_laptopoh03:03
astromme_laptophmm03:03
astromme_laptopthat might be alternate cd03:03
epimethSerpardum: if you are already installed why don't you just upgrade straight from the repos?  you don't need to download the disk again.....03:04
epimethalso, I prefer the alternate cd myself03:04
Serpardumepimeth: the repos are broken, tried that03:05
astromme_laptop?03:05
Serpardumits becasue of the version I'm upgrading from03:05

Serpardumkay, cause the alternative is what I"m dling03:07
Serpardumso that's right?03:07

Daskreech_Which version ?03:07
Serpardumkay.03:07

Daskreech_That's going to break some stuf03:07
Serpardumother than alpha03:07
Daskreech_Yeah03:07
Serpardumwhat does it break?03:07
Daskreech_Ubuntu in general doesn't support random upgrades03:08
astromme_laptop7.10? 7.10->8.04 isn't a supported upgrade path03:08
Daskreech_it's either from a release to a release+1 or from a LTS to a LTS +103:08

Daskreech_Serpardum: You try upgrade Windows 3.1 to Vista and see what happens :)03:09
astromme_laptopSerpardum: You would either have to upgrade from 7.10 -> 8.04 -> 9.04 or install clean03:09
Serpardumwell, if I can get it working I can recompile if I have to03:09
Serpardumcan't install clean, this is a virtual machine03:09
Serpardumwhich is why it has to be an upgrade03:09

Serpardumthe upgrade one?03:10
Serpardumbecaue I have vmplayer, not vmserver03:10

epimethDaskreech_: yea, the 28 isn't in the bc43 driver yet... I modprobe -r all the wireless network then add wl and b44 and restart the networking daemon and it works.  However, it doesn't stick after a reboot... I guess I'll suffer till it gets fixed :-)03:11

SerpardumI guess I could go with ubuntu03:12
astromme_laptopSerpardum: I strongly suggest installing VirtualBox and using the LiveCd/Alternative install disk for 9.0403:13
epimethSerpardum: wait what?  why don't you "format" the virtual hard drive?03:13
Serpardumbecause I'm running a .vmx file03:13

Serpardumthat is what I create in virtual box won't work in VMWare?03:16
astromme_laptopSerpardum: no, it is not the same but it serves the same purpose03:17
Daskreech_You can get a converter I think03:17
astromme_laptopSerpardum: no, it will not work in vmware. But virtualbox will run its own images03:17
SerpardumOkay, as long as it works in vista I"ll switch to it03:17
Serpardumis there a kubuntu virtual machine out there?03:17
Serpardumfor virtualbox?03:17

astromme_laptopSerpardum[]: nah, VirtualBox will do that for you03:37
ahmoslibfprint03:37
astromme_laptopSerpardum[]: Just run the create virtual machine wizard03:37
astromme_laptopthen when you first turn it on it asks for an iso03:37
astromme_laptopahmos: dunno03:39
ahmos:) ok thank's any way03:39
Serpardum[]when it asks for OS, kubuntu is not listed but ubuntu is, do I just select ubuntu, or other?03:40
astromme_laptopSerpardum[]: ubuntu03:41
Serpardum[]thx03:41
astromme_laptopSerpardum[]: it asks because it sets up some custom stuff. The base of ubuntu is the same as the base of Kubuntu03:41
epimethaaaand back03:44
Serpardum[]Hmm.. for a 3gb machine whats a good base memory size?03:44

galvanizewhere are most of the applications stored?03:45
Serpardum[]it's suggesting 384MB but that seems kinda small for me, but is it okay for kubuntu?03:45
Gamarok__well its morning from where i am talking03:46
astromme_laptopSerpardum[]: I would do more if you can spare it03:47
astromme_laptopSerpardum[]: how much do you have in the host machine? I would suggest 768-1024MB of ram if you have greater than 2GB in the host03:47
Serpardum[]I have 3gb in the host03:47
Serpardum[]getting confused now by the hard drive thing03:47
astromme_laptopoh, reading backlog... yes, 1GB should be great03:47
Serpardum[]dont' understand the question03:47
astromme_laptopSerpardum[]: VirtualBox has a "virtual hd manager"03:48

Daskreech_!kvm03:52
ubottukvm is the preferred virtualization approach in Ubuntu. For more information see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/KVM03:52
SerpardumKVM switches, but your'e probably talking about somethign else03:52
epimethlol03:52
epimethDaskreech_: I'm reading that, but I'm hoping that maybe I can use it without hardware virtualization?  or maybe I have it but can't figure out how to turn it on?03:53

Daskreech_what cpu do you have?03:53
epimethintel core2 duo t640003:54
astromme_laptopHow nice of you all to return :)03:54

astromme_laptopepimeth: that should have hardware virtualization03:56
astromme_laptopMine does (it's a core 2 duo)03:56

Daskreech_astromme_laptop: not true It's a crap shoot with intel03:58
Daskreech_you can buy a CPU way more expensive and it won't have VT03:58
astromme_laptophmm, interesting03:59

Serpardumbut that would require new format04:18
astromme_laptopbut anyways, the same thing happens on my desktop (7200 rpM) when I have high disk io04:18
JabberWokkyAh, yes.  I see it in the scroll back now (missed it, sorry).  Nope, I've run into that in fuse reconnects and SD media, and know how to tweak those two.04:18
Serpardumhwo do you tweak them JabberWokky?04:19

JabberWokkyIf it's just a normal HD, I've only seen it get really slow when the app itself is doing something intensive.04:19

SerpardumI just googled for "install .deb file" and a how to popped up04:20

astromme_laptopJabberWokky: you don't ever experience super slowdown of the entire gui? All windows, the desktop effects, window redraw, etc04:20
JabberWokkySerpardum: No, actually, the fail and retry settings are, by default, fairly high.  However, fuse can actually functionally lock the entire mounted fs system as apps wait on the mountpoint to time out.04:20
CoJaBo-AztecSerpardum: Ah, dkpg, I was mispelling it... Thanks.04:21
CoJaBo-AztecEr, *dpkg04:21
JabberWokkyastromme_laptop: Not really.  It's slow when I'm doing something like encoding video over an sshfs connection, but that's a pretty hefty system load.04:21
* astromme_laptop frowns04:21
* astromme_laptop has it on any linux computer he has used. oh well. 04:22
* astromme_laptop is fine during high cpu loads04:22
* astromme_laptop just isn't fine during high io loads04:22
Serpardumthat is strange astromme, I've never expereinced that problem in linux04:22
JabberWokkySerpardum: If you use fuse and are having issues (especially with KDE apps trying to see if there's a .directory file pausing as they wait to time out), I can kick you my opts.04:23
CoJaBo-AztecOk, dpkg failed but at least it gave an error better than "A problem we were not expe"!04:23

JabberWokkySerpardum: You run the core on any computer, and then the client on any other computer.  My core runs on my home server, the client on any computer I happen to be on.  It allows me to look back when I reconnect.04:31

astromme_laptopcjae: For strigi: You access strigi through Nepomuk in 4.2.x04:45

astrobearaah04:46
astromme_laptopBut there is a bug.... with a java symlink04:46
astromme_laptopI had to google for help on how to fix it04:46
astrobearstromme is cool, sounds like pastromi04:46
astromme_laptophehe04:46
cjaeastromme_laptop, so would you recommend strigi04:50
astromme_laptopcjae: well, that is what Kubuntu will be centered around04:51
astromme_laptopbut you would need to manually do the java symlink fix04:51
cjaeshouldn't be too hard04:51
cjaeright04:51
astromme_laptopcjae: not too hard04:53
astrobearapt-get build-dep kde-icons-oxygen was the solution04:53
astromme_laptopiirc it was symlinking /usr/lib/javaimplementation/something/libjvm.so /usr/lib/libjvm.so04:53
astrobearit's a kubuntu bug that has been alive the entire life of intrepid04:53
astromme_laptopastrobear: the strigi?04:53
solidus-riverum, gcc is broken04:54
astrobearastromme_laptop: dunno04:54
solidus-riveri did an apt-get install build-essential and apt-get install gcc04:54
ichudovI find that I like a lot of KDE programs and, for the kicks, I want to04:54
ichudovtry KDE. However, I want to continue to use the familiar GDM, keep04:54
ichudovGnome as the default option for all users, etc. Anyone knows what04:54
ichudovpackage should I install?04:54
solidus-riveri have a program that is #include <iostream> using namespace std;  int main () {   cout << "Hello World!";   return 0; }04:55
astromme_laptopichudov: I think you should be able to install kubuntu-desktop and things shouldkeep their defaults04:55
solidus-riverthat program returns a ton of errors concerning iostream04:55
ichudovastromme, awesome, thanks, I will try.04:55
astromme_laptopat most you might have to do an apt-get reconfigure gdm04:55
ichudovOK, I will write it down just in case.04:56
astromme_laptopichudov: hold up a sec04:57
astromme_laptopwasn't quite the right command, I need to look it up04:58
ichudovinstall asked what should be the default display manager, to which I answered gdm. Very encouraging04:58
astromme_laptopyes, that's good04:58
astromme_laptopichudov: you might get the kubuntu branding during boot... there is a package to remove if you don't want it but I don't remember it off the top of my head04:58
ichudovI love especially krusader, konversation etc04:58
ichudovI would like to remove it to avoid confusion, I have a whole family04:58
=== k4v is now known as m4v
=== SJr is now known as SJrX
astromme_laptopichudov: ok, so it looks like if something goes wrong with kdm/gdm, the command is "dpkg-reconfigure gdm"04:59
ichudovOK, I wrote that down.05:00
astromme_laptopichudov: and it also looks like the usplash (booting screens) are called "kubuntu-artwork-usplash"05:00
ichudovI am rebooting that box and will soon walk to it to see05:00
astromme_laptopichudov: so you might want to remove that05:00
astromme_laptopand then do the dpkg-reconfigure usplash-theme-ubuntu05:01
astromme_laptopthat's if you see kubuntu branding at boot05:01
ichudovaptitude remove kubuntu-artwork-usplash prompts to remove kubuntu-desktop. That's OK, right?05:02
ichudovI think that I can set usplash theme from StartUp-Manager.05:02
ichudovI am not too worried about it.05:02
astromme_laptopichudov: sure, it is fine to remove the desktop metapackage05:03
ichudovOK, I will hold off on that yet05:03
ichudovI will go away for a few to try that desktop, it is upstairs05:03

astromme_laptopSerpardum[DM]: I think you need to install the vbox guest additions05:10
Serpardum[DM]virtualbox guess additions?  hmnm05:10
astromme_laptopSerpardum[DM]: when the vm is running, go to Devices -> guest additions05:10
astromme_laptopit'll mount a cd in the client05:11
astromme_laptopclick that05:11
Serpardum[DM]yeah, it did that05:11
Serpardum[DM]it mounted a CD05:11
astromme_laptopthen open a terminal (press f4 if you're in dolphin) and run 'sudo sh ./VBoxLinux-something-x86-something.sh05:11

astromme_laptopSerpardum[DM]: It mounted a virtual cd for the guest05:15
Serpardum[DM]ahhhhh05:15
astromme_laptopSerpardum[DM]: just run in the guest "sudo sh /media/cdrom/VBoxLinuxAdditions-x86.run"05:16

ichudovastromme, I am back in the basement. I configured boot to boot with ubuntu theme. Logged into KDE. I was totally astonished. This KDE stuff is so incredible, the eye candy is mind boggling and things look very attractive. So far I use FVWM (for the last 13 years), Gnome desktop (for the last 2 years) and now KDE. I have to say that for real high productivity programming, FVWM still cannot be beat, but where eye candy05:17
ichudovmatters, KDE rules!!! I will play with it to see how stable it is. If it is, I may switch my laptop to KDE.05:17

ichudovthanks, I will leave now so as not to clog this channel, thanks a lot!05:18

* Serpardum[DM] loks over at the 200+ users in this channels05:19
astromme_laptopichudov: KDE has made huge striides since 4.0 a year ago. I agree, it's quite nice now :)05:19
astromme_laptopSerpardum[DM]: compare that with 1300 for #ubuntu05:19
Daskreech14.3 Is a little nicer than 4.205:21
Daskreech1Sort of how 4.1 was a little nicer than 4.005:21
Serpardum[DM]much much better.05:22
Daskreech1sudo man are you asking for it05:22
* astromme_laptop is happy with 4.3. Lots of polish and some new exciting tidbits05:23
Daskreech1astromme: Ha ha That's where the deja vu is from05:23
Daskreech1You know something is done right when someone says "Logged into KDE. I was totally astonished. This KDE stuff is so incredible"05:23
astromme_laptopDaskreech1: yep :)05:24
Daskreech1I kept thinking I know this astromme from somewhere05:24

Daskreech1You do realise anytime anyone gives out a command in here well over 60% of the time the word sudo is in it right? Which means you get pinged05:25
Serpardum[DM]man I'm stupid.  I typed what you said without thinking.  I'm on AMD.  I better reinstall and hope it overrights.05:26
sudooh good point man i guess i will have to change my nick thanks Daskreech105:26
astromme_laptopSerpardum[DM]: on amd64 or on x86?05:27
astromme_laptopSerpardum[DM]: becuase if you installed the i386 the x86 command works05:28
froguyhey what the hell05:28
froguyi have the volume blasted05:28
* astromme_laptop chuckles05:28
froguyand youtube is not even loud05:28
Serpardum[DM]I'm on an AMD64 with Vista 3205:28
astromme_laptopSerpardum[DM]: ok, so x86 is what you want05:28
Serpardum[DM]but I just tried the AMD64 and it said that yeah05:28
Serpardum[DM]why?05:28
froguyyea me is think of putting vista back on this05:28
Serpardum[DM]why do I want x86 on an amd?05:29
froguythis linux crap sucks.05:29

froguyfirefox fails05:29
Serpardumyou'll get a chance to learn something05:29
froguywhen i closes it.  i still have to kill the pid05:29
froguyand then youtube get skippy after firefox has been running for a few hours05:29
froguyit never did that before05:29
SerpardumI gues syou haven't run vista lately05:30
froguyi thought software is supposed to get better with each successive version ?05:30
Serpardumall kinds of shit wrong with it05:30
froguyvista is fine.  i regret wiping it off.05:30
Serpardumfroguy: the problem is, new software = new features = new bugs05:30
froguyugh05:30
froguylinux crap.05:30
SerpardumAnd it takes 90% of the time to do the last 10% of the work05:30
froguywell is there a way to roll back to an older version of firefox ?05:30
froguycan apt do that ?05:31
SerpardumMeaning in 50 yars from now, there'll be bugs05:31
froguyhow do i get the last working version of firefox.05:31
astromme_laptopSerpardum: It's working because x86 is the platform that both amd and intel have05:31
froguyhow do i get the last working version of firefox.05:31
Serpardumbecause I'm running in vista?05:31
astromme_laptopSerpardum: and while the amd chips can support amd64 (i.e. x86_64) you're running vista 32 which is 32 bit (i.e. plain old x86)05:32
Serpardumfroguy: you try downloading it?05:32
Serpardumthen uninstall your current, install the other one05:32
Daskreech1froguy: Yes it can05:32
astromme_laptopSerpardum: you could also run a 32 bit linux distro, same deal05:32
froguywell what do i have to type to make it work.05:32
* Serpardum blinks05:32

astromme_laptopSerpardum: did that make some kind of sense?05:33
SerpardumOkay, my kubutu doesn't have that install program thingie the 7.10 had.  even though apt-get is better, apt-get doesn't let me see the list.  So how do I get that install program?  what's it's name so I can apt-get it?05:34
Serpardumastrobear: yes05:34
robin0800astromme_laptop: to be realy unhappy karmic alpha1 with kde is out05:34

froguyopera is not in apt like how it is in debian and gentoo05:35

astromme_laptopastrobear: rawr05:37
astromme_laptopfroguy: Opera has ubuntu/kubuntu packages on its site05:37
Serpardumthis is kinda funny: enumFromString ( Group ) : converted "unknown" to "Unknown" , enum value -105:37

kalorin_anyone else having issues with video drivers (gut feeling) on laptops in 9.04?05:41
kalorin_specifically the centrino chipset intel drivers/05:41
astromme_laptopkalorin_: yes, the situation in 9.04 is not pretty05:41
kalorin_lots of artifacts and flashing parts of the screen popping then lockups05:41
kalorin_yeah I'm in no hurry to upgrade at this point05:42
Serpardumwhat desktop am I using? (default)05:42
kalorin_maybe 9.1005:42
kalorin_we'll see05:42
astromme_laptopkalorin_: It was bad enough where I upgraded further to experimental 2.6.30 kernel packages and karmic 9.10 drivers05:42
kalorin_it just seems liek the video drivers aren't stable all the sudden, I'm surprised they changed honestly05:42
Daskreech1Serpardum: 9.04 ?05:42
astromme_laptopkalorin_: After I did that things work really well, better than in Intrepid, which bodes well for 9.1005:42
Daskreech1hi nightdrever05:42
kalorin_and it's a guess that it's video drivers, but it seems to locka dn hang a lot on video stuff05:43
nightdrever /msg c0ntract0r  hello05:43
kalorin_I upgraded my laptop from 8.10 to 9.04 and it's just been really unstable05:43
astromme_laptopkalorin_: yeah, they got stuck in a really bad transition stage (kms, dri2, etc)05:43
* kalorin_ nods05:43
kalorin_k well i'm glad I'm not alone in seeing that05:43
Daskreech1nightdrever: Might want to join #ubuntu :)05:44
kalorin_perhaps I'll try the higher kernel level and see where that gets me05:44
astromme_laptopkalorin_: if you are keeping your laptop on 9.04 and can't stand it, there is a thread that helps you install the experimental stuff which helped massively in my case05:44
astromme_laptopgoogle for it, ubuntuforums05:44
kalorin_yeah that'd be good05:44
kalorin_k thanks a ton05:44
astromme_laptopnp05:44
kalorin_that and knetworkmanager doesn't start on boot for some reason on that machine05:44
kalorin_runs fine if I pop a command prompt and fire it off05:45
kalorin_but just doesn't start on it's own05:45
kalorin_otherwise it appears to be good, from what I can tell between locks and whatnot05:45
astromme_laptopkalorin_: the plasmoid widget or the actual kde3 program?05:45
kalorin_if I don't start it in a command shell, it doesn't start, I get no netowrk05:45
kalorin_so i'm guessing the widget05:46
astromme_laptopthe kde3 program isn't installed in a normal jaunty install, that's probably why. You could put a symlink in ~/.kde/Autostart05:46
kalorin_ah05:46
kalorin_I'll give that a shot05:46
astromme_laptopkalorin_: if you run it with knetworkmanager then no, it's the kde3 widget from 8.10 iirc05:46
kalorin_haven't spent too much time running with it05:46
astromme_laptopkalorin_: you could try adding the plasmoid (it's like adding any other desktop widget, search for network manager)05:46
astromme_laptopbut the widget is kind of flaky05:47
kalorin_seldom used laptop just for upstairs when I'm watching tv05:47
astromme_laptopso if knetworkmanager works for you I would keep it05:47
* kalorin_ nods05:47
astromme_laptopespecially if you use a WPA2 enterprise network05:47
kalorin_heh05:47
* astromme_laptop found that out the hard way and currently uses gnome nm-applet05:47
kalorin_that'd be my preference, but anyone that comes over with their lame windowz machines can't use it then seems like05:47
kalorin_oh noes, sekurity!!!05:48
kalorin_fun for a good wasted afternoon05:48

Daskreech1What is ubuntuzilla ?07:05
ben__http://paste.ubuntu.com:80/173437/07:05
paul_Is the Ubuntu build of mozilla firefox and thunderbird07:05
ben__i think it just installs them07:06
Daskreech1What's your username?07:06
paul_I'm using kubuntu on a x64 machine and having some real issues07:06
Daskreech1paul_: The Ubuntu builds of Firefox and thunderbird are simply called firefox and thunderbird07:07
Daskreech1Just install them as normal07:07
ben__my username?07:07
Daskreech1yes07:08
ben__ben07:08
Daskreech1on the computer07:08
ben__yeah07:08
paul_Don't you need a x64 version?07:08
Daskreech1ok then sudo chown ben:ben  -R ~/.kde07:08
ben__so that would make me have permissons to everything07:09
Daskreech1paul_: If you are on the 64bit ubuntu it will automatically install any opensource application as the 64bit version07:09
Daskreech1ben: In the ~/.kde directory07:09
ben__ok07:09
Sevenhillben__:  ~/ means your home directory07:09
ben__ok this is just weird. now my home is back in the root. that is if i'm interpriting this correctly07:11
Daskreech1How are you figuring that?07:12
ben__in dolphin the home is empty but the home in root is no longer a shortcut just a folder07:13
Daskreech1so your home directory is empty?07:14
ben__well the home shortcut in the sidebar just puts me in /root07:16
ben__i think the partition is fine it's just dolphin is confused07:17
ben__if i right click and hit properties in the / folder dolphin crashes into signal 607:18
=== bdgraue_ is now known as bdgraue
Sevenhillben__:  i suggest you logout and relogin for to see effects of what you did before ( i mean chown )07:20

ben__well i did that but i had to restart instead because it locked up07:26
Daskreech1?07:27
Daskreech1Somethgn sounds funny :)07:27
ben__good news amarok works with out running it from bash bad news dolphin still displays some odd stuff07:27
Daskreech1What odd stuff?07:28
Viking667Hey there. I'm having a major issue trying to run the software updater - symptoms are - the software updater has its icon in the system tray, and says in a tooltip (for example) 22 packages updated.07:28
ben__like right click properties works fine in the home but it crashes dolphin in the / directory07:28
Viking667Problem is, when I bring up the window and try to click either "Apply" or "OK",or "Apply all available updates", I get a windoow popping up sayinc "Trying to start service", then it immediately brings up a second window in front saying "An internal error that we were not expecting has occurred ...." and in the details, it says: The backend took too much time to process the synchronous request - you need to fork.07:30
Viking667Now, what kind of an error message is that for John Doe User?07:30
Viking667I'm well versed with Linux in general, and even _I_ don't know what this message is referring to.07:30
Viking667It's only started occurring since I updated a machine up to 9.04.07:31
ben__wait i know why it didn't logout07:32
ben__it was my falt (again) amarok and firefox were the only thing that didn't close during the logout and i kinda started them with a sudo instead of a kdesudo07:33
Sevenhillif you started firefox with su you also have to type this  ->  sudo chown -R ben:ben ~/.mozilla07:35
ben__the number of things i can screw up never seases to amaze me07:36
Viking667lol. Never be amazed about the capacity to screw up.07:37
Gamarok__you are not alone on that one ben__07:37
=== ben is now known as ben__
Viking667so, anyone has a single clue about this "Software Update" problem?07:38
Gamarok__guys i cant get my bluetooth to run on kubuntu 8.10 can anybody help me with that07:39
ben__it never ends. i can now log out fine and firefox works (yes you just fixed a problem you didn't even know existed) but all my basket notepads are gone07:41
ben__and dolphin still crashes07:42
dmbkiwiViking667: why don't you update from a terminal?  See if there are any errors from there?07:42
Viking667no errors. That's the stupid thing.07:43
Viking667for what it's worth, it's "KDE Control Module" that throws its bathtoys out.07:43
Viking667i.e I can manually apt-get upgrade fine.07:43
dmbkiwiViking667: maybe stick with that for now then - don't think I've ever used the graphical tool.07:44
Viking667not a great deal of use to my "granny" user. She's only used to using the terminal to start her spreadsheet program. She uses the KDE desktop for pretty much everything else.07:45
Daskreech1ben: Why are you starting things with Sudo and kdesudo ?07:46
ben__i was starting firefox because it wouldn't start properly any other way (buttons and things didn't work)07:47
ben__i knew it was a permission problem but i didn't know how to fix it07:47
Daskreech1ben: try changing the permissions :)07:48
ben__hey wait /home/ben/.kde/apps is gone07:49
ben__which would explain the basket poblem07:50
Mamarokben__: that would be .kde/share/apps/07:50
Mamarokthere never was a .kde/apps/ folder07:50
ben__*feels dumb*07:50
ben__so /home/ben/.kde/share/apps/basket is empty07:52
Daskreech1ben: probably because you started it with sudo which makes it a root app07:54
Daskreech1so it's in /root/.kde/share/apps07:54
ben__i never started basket with sudo07:54
Daskreech1ok then I'm not sure then07:55
ben__i have it backup anyway07:55
Viking667hm. How do I find a jaunty key for security repo? (more to the point, how do I import the key too?)07:55
Daskreech1You should have the key already07:56
Viking667I _should_ have...07:56
Viking667I just tried to do a "apt-get update" and got this message (after a list of files that downloaded successfully): W: GPG error: http://security.ubuntu.com jaunty-security Release: The following signatures were invalid: BADSIG 40976EAF437D05B5 Ubuntu Archive Automatic Signing Key <ftpmaster@ubuntu.com>07:57
Daskreech1it will be on launchpad with the instructions on how to import it07:57
Viking667W: You may want to run aptsget update to fix these errors.07:57
* Viking667 is blank. What's launchpad?07:58
Daskreech1!launchpad07:58
ubottuLaunchpad is a collection of development services for Open Source projects. It's Ubuntu's bug tracker, and much more; see https://launchpad.net/07:58
Viking667how's that related to kubuntu and updating to Jaunty from Intrepid?07:59
Viking667I mean, if it does, I'm fine with that, I just hadn't heard of it, ever.07:59
Daskreech1It's how Ubuntu keeps a track of packages08:00
Viking667used to be adept and apt that handled that, wasn't it? At least from the client side08:01
HanHi, I want to try kde4.3 beta so I added "deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-ppa/experimental/ubuntu jaunty main" to my sources.list. I just can't find the key.  Does anyone know the whereabouts?08:01
Daskreech1Viking667: yes think of launchpad as the server side08:03
Daskreech1 hence where the keys are08:03
Daskreech1Han: 4.3 isn't packaged yet08:04
HanVersion: 4:4.2.85-0ubuntu2~jaunty2~ppa108:05
Hantimestamp: 16 may08:06
Viking667hrm. Didn't see anything related to official Ubuntu keys for the security "source" there...08:08
Hangot it :-) https://launchpad.net/~kubuntu-experimental/+archive/ppa08:09
Viking667I saw that too, but I'm not AFTER Personal Packaged Archive.08:10
Viking667I'm after the _official_ key to the Official Security source from Ubuntu.08:10
ben__i'm going to try to fix any remaining problems later. but now thier is only problem that i've spent way way way to long on. flash player in firefox. i've tried every adept flash plugin and like 20 other methods of installing flash player. and they all end up in thier respective folders just fine but firefox never recognises them.08:11

tzangerDoes anyone know what replaced the "archive web page" option that used to be in Konqueror's tools menu?14:57
robintzanger: there is a save page option, not sure if that's what you're looking for14:58
phhtzanger: archive web page, but you have to install konq-plugins14:58
tzangerphh: aha! a missing package is the source for my sad konq :-)14:59
tzangerrobin: close, but archive web page would save all images etc into a ".war" file (web archive)14:59
Matisse_which sound daemon am I using? (kubuntu 9.04914:59
phhMatisse_: most likely is pulseaudio14:59
BluesKajrobin, do you have all the codecs installed like the ones in kubuntu-restricted-extras , w32codecs , even libdvdcss2 which is not a codec but a DRM stripper , ffmpeg , libxine1-ffmpeg14:59
tzangerphh: I had to ditch pulseaudio when I installed wicd it seemed.14:59
tzanger(I went from ubuntu to kubuntu, there was a lot of stuff that changed)15:00
phhtzanger: ?!? it's networkmanager not pulseaudio15:00
BluesKaj!phonon15:00
tzangernetworkmanager stopped working outright, which is why I ended u with wicd15:00
ubottuSorry, I don't know anything about phonon15:00
tzangerphh: yes I realize that15:00
tzangerI know the two should be completely unrelated15:00
robinI have, I used to be play all media proberbly but since 9.04 only dragon player works, and I don't like dragon player15:00
tzangerphh this is awesome, I have my page archival tool back. thank you so much!15:01
phhrobin: try either -ao sdl, -ao oss15:02
tzangeris there a similar trick to getting my context menus working for the tab buttons on konsole? :-)15:02
phhtzanger: the what ?15:02
tzangerphh: in KDE 3.5 you could right-click on the konsole tabs at the bottom and get a context menu (particularly the "clse tab" for killing off unresponsive ssh sessions) -- I can do it through the file menu, so it's not a big deal15:03
phhtzanger: well, just click any where else than tab, and you will get it :-)15:04
tzangerphh: well shit, I didn't try that... hahaha you're right, thanks again15:05
tzangerdoes KDE have a graphical front-end to the Gnome ssh/gpg passphrase popup?15:06
ign0ramustzanger, ctrl+shift+w will also close the current tab15:06
tzangerwhen I was briefly using gnome, I would ssh over and since I have a DSA key that is accepted by the remote, a GUI popup asked me for my passphrase instead of the normal CLI "enter passphrase:" prompt15:07
phhtzanger: pinentry-qt ?15:07
phhbut afaik it's only for gpg not ssh15:07
tzangeractually I found ksshaskpass15:09
carpiitzanger, why dont you use public/private key for ssh ?15:11
carpiimeans you dont have to enter a password at all15:11
hydrogenyou still do15:12
hydrogen(which is what ksshaskpass is for)15:12
hydrogenunless you use a passwordless private key15:12
hydrogenbut thats just stupid15:12
carpiiyes, thats what i mean15:12
carpiiuh, no it isnt15:12
hydrogenyea it is15:12
carpiii mean its not what i mean :)15:12
tzangercarpii: I do, that's what DSA keys are15:14
tzangercarpii: and yes, if you use empty passphrases you don't have to enter one. I do that for backups and stuff but not for my general logins15:14
carpiiok, i think i do use an empty passphrase, but my servers are firewalled to my ip15:15

ign0ramushume, i don't think that feature has been implemented into Amarok 2 yet16:10
AdolaUnksi: So, Just to make sure, these are the video drivers for ATi cards right?  And about 2 weeks ago, they weren't there?  But now are?16:10
UnksiAdola: all i know about that is that packages.ubuntu.com states that there is a package with that name^16:11

swattoYou know the K menu taskbar at the bottom is it possible to move it at the top and fade it out a little bit?16:36
Gunnar_Eismannsometimes eth1 is the wireless intreface16:36
windowsg1ywell it's not. it's my ethernet interface16:36
windowsg1yin this case16:36
Sir_Brizzdoes anyone know how to make network manager connect to my non broadcasting wifi router?16:37
tzangerI gave up on networkmanager and installed wicd16:37
ign0ramusswatto, not sure if you can move the default panel, but you can create a new one at the top and add whatever widgets you want... also transparency will depend on your style/theme16:37
windowsg1ynetwork manager is not letting me type the ip address16:38
windowsg1yi clicked manual under the drop box16:38
Sir_Brizzheh16:38
eagles0513875windowsg1y: then hit add16:38
windowsg1yi did16:38
Gunnar_Eismannwindowsg1y: did you try to connect manually with ifconfig?16:38
windowsg1yok16:38
Sir_Brizzit's ironic because if I login to my gnome session the wireless will connct. If I then log out and back in to KDE it will also connect16:38
windowsg1yyea i can manually assing with ifconfig16:38
Sir_Brizzif my computer goes to sleep it breaks again16:38
windowsg1ybut im not gonna type those lines everytime i reboot16:38
phhswatto: left click on it, "configure panel", click and drop screen border & height for what you want16:39
Gunnar_Eismanni know16:39
ign0ramusSir_Brizz, have you tried using wicd instead of network manager?16:39
swattolast time i messed with that I screwed it up and had to delete some kde files to reset back to default16:39
ign0ramusswatto, was that in kde 4.0?16:39
swattoyep I think thats what is installed here16:40
ign0ramusswatto, o_O .... well i'd fix that issue first.  kde 4.0 is very... uh... not so great16:40
phhign0ramus: you mean the worst thing we can ever imagine after amarok2 ? :)16:41
Gunnar_Eismannwindowsg1y: btw, you will need an "auto eth1" in the interfaces file if you want it to work when you restart16:41
ign0ramusphh, lol. yeah :)16:41
windowsg1yugg16:41
ign0ramusswatto, you want at least kde 4.2.2 before messing with any settings16:41
swattohow can I find out what kde i am running16:41
ign0ramusswatto, an easy way to check is to go to Help > About KDE in any kde app16:42
windowsguyGunnar_Eismann: thanx that worked16:42
Gunnar_Eismannwindowsg1y: If you use /etc/network/interfaces instead network-manager, you need to add that line16:42
windowsguyi dont know why no one coulda just told me that.  ive been asking every day for like 50 times.16:42

swattoTrying to get this AWN thing installed, well ive installed AWN but trying to get the dock thing now, I have compiz up and running16:45
ign0ramusswatto, now, if you right click your desktop, and add new panel, you can add all your regular stuff back to that panel16:45
pasQuallehey guys, I hope someone can help me with my klauncher prob16:45
ign0ramusswatto, if you're satisfied with how everything is working, you can remove the bottom panel safely16:45
phhnightdrever: go on http://webmail.mozdev.org/installation.html and install the hotmail thing16:46
swattoI tried but cannot get the system tray thing to display correctly, it streches across the whole bar16:46
phhand the webmail thing too.16:46
pasQuallein nearly every program, i.e. k3b, where I need to open files or folders, I get a _cannot talk to klauncher_ message16:48
ign0ramusswatto, i've seen this happen before.. if you create a new panel, and add the system tray on the new one, is it still huge?16:49
swattoAhh I have managed to but the original taskbar at the top now16:49
ign0ramusswatto, that's what you asked for, right?16:49
swattoyep16:50
swattobut yes create new panel still makes the widget strech across whole panel16:50
ign0ramusswatto, :/  looking for a fix16:50
nate_hi16:52
nate_i recently upgraded to 9.04 and when i do an update it says the backend took to long and i need to fork....16:53
nate_what is this fork16:53
ign0ramusswatto, one workaround is to create a separate panel just for system tray and you can resize that panel for your needs... still looking though16:53
ign0ramusswatto, what if you add the Task Manager widget to the panel... does it properly resize the system tray?16:54
swattoill try16:54
nate_anybody know what 'need to fork' means16:55
ign0ramusswatto, try sliding it to different locations along the panel... it should resize the system tray widget16:55
swattoyep the task manager widget is resized properly when adding it16:56
ign0ramusswatto, does that solve your problem satisfactorily?16:56
swattoyep well its fine because I have moved the original bottom bar to the top now, thankyou for your help :)16:56

goshawk_corigo: probably you have to scroll it all down, and then click ok18:40
ign0ramuscorigo, use the right arrow key18:40
swattodoes that mean I can copy from there too18:40
ign0ramusswatto, should be able to... i never used wubi before18:41
robert__can they be auto accessed on start up so i dont have to do that so i can load programs from them without having to click to access them?18:41
swattoI dont understand, does linux mount on its own volume even though it was installed via windows installer18:41
ign0ramusswatto, because it uses a different filesystem that it must create to run18:42
ign0ramusrobert__, what programs would you like to run on startup?18:42
robert__Steam via wine and i have all my music on one of those partitions, and the rhytmbox gets stuck if dont give it access18:43
eagles0513875im having a weird issue sometimes firefox just closes itself same with a game running in wine any ideas as to the cause18:44
ign0ramusrobert__, ok for rhythmbox... you're saying it can't access the partition with the music on it until you click on it in Places ... right?18:44
robert__yes18:44
ign0ramusrobert__, ok, did you install ntfs-3g and ntfs-config?18:44
=== jordan is now known as Guest72895
robert__not yet ^^18:45
swattoHow do I see what running processes I have open so that I can kill them18:45
ign0ramusrobert__, ok get those 2, they make things much easier ;)18:45
ign0ramusswatto, "top"18:45
robert__i only found ntfs-config 0.5.518:46
robert__and it only "Enable write support for external device"18:47
corigosorry missed any responses... connection dropped18:47
robert__ill try google :P18:47
ign0ramuswoops... accidentally killed Konversation :/18:47
goshawk_corigo: probably you have to scroll it all down, and then click ok18:47
swattothanks :) think I can run steam from the NTFS volume using wine18:47
corigoI can see it, I can click it, nothing happens18:47
goshawk_corigo: it's keyboard based18:48
ign0ramusanyone else have an issue where ctrl+alt+esc kill icon doesn't disappear after killing a window?  I have to restart X...18:48
corigoah so18:48
goshawk_corigo: use tab to move into ok and then push return (OK)18:48
goshawk_press18:48
corigoYes, I think Keyboard based came just after I figured that out. thanks18:48
robert__ i only found ntfs-config 0.5.518:49
robert__and it only "Enable write support for external device"18:49
robert__ ill try google :P18:49
corigoI've several people complaining about KPackageKit... I'm going to have to add my voice18:49
ign0ramusrobert__, just type it in terminal "sudo apt-get install ntfs-3g ntfs-config"18:49
ign0ramuscorigo, it is very buggy and crashy18:50
robert__ntfs-3g is already the newest version.18:50
robert__ntfs-config is already the newest version.18:50
ign0ramusrobert__, ok good.18:50
ign0ramusrobert__, now "gksu ntfs-config"18:50
ign0ramusrobert__, I'm assuming you don't have kde installed18:50
robert__dunno, prolly not18:51
ign0ramusrobert__, enable read/write for all partitions18:51
robert__0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.18:51

corigoWhat I really want to know is if anyone can confirm having issues with plugging and unplugging speakers/headphones into their system. I've lost video and had to press the system restart button 4 times today due to plugging in my headphones18:51
kuruminalguem pode me dizer o q e isso?18:51
ign0ramusrobert__, huh?  you should get a window pop up when you run "gksu ntfs-config" ... do you see it?18:51
robert__yeah18:52
robert__already had that window18:52
ign0ramusrobert__, ok, so you enabled both, yes?18:52
robert__and it only says (button) "Enable write support for external device"18:52
robert__yeah18:52
ign0ramusrobert__, ok, good.  now for ntfs-3g... give me a minute18:52
kaddihi, my pc just froze (yet again -.-), the image is stuck, but the sound keeps playing... how can i get it unstuck?18:52
robert__done that now, so rhythmbox should be ok, and wine too right?18:53
ign0ramusrobert__, maybe not yet... we havent set auto mount yet18:54
robert__ah :)18:54
ign0ramusrobert__, what is the name of the partition with the music (ie, "/dev/sdb1")?18:54

robert__ign0ramus done19:00
ign0ramusrobert__, ok, now we will make a backup of your fstab: "sudo cp /etc/fstab /etc/fstab.bak"19:00
robert__Done19:01
ign0ramusrobert__, ok now clear your current fstab, and paste this one inside: http://pastebin.com/m79aedacb19:02
robert__okay19:02
ign0ramusrobert__, the line I added "/dev/sdb6    /mnt/ntfs    ntfs-3g    defaults    0 0" should now auto-mount this partition automatically when you start up19:02
ign0ramusrobert__, save and exit gedit.19:03
ign0ramusrobert__, if you want to test, reboot, and see if this partition is mounted on startup19:03
robert__yeah, can I self do it for other partitions?19:03
ign0ramusrobert__, yes, but I would check to make sure this works before adding all kinds of other stuff :)19:04
robert__haha, okay :D19:04
ign0ramusrobert__, again, if you want to use your old fstab, just take off the ".bak" file and let it overwrite the one we just created19:04
robert__gonna restart now, see you in a minute and check it...19:05
ign0ramusrobert__, k i'll be here19:05

dsmith_well linux recongnize 4gb memory?19:08
ign0ramusPhibes, now is that partiton automatically mounted and read for rhythmbox?19:08
Phibeshah, ill check19:08
corigodsmith_: yes19:08
dsmith_corigo: thx19:08
Phibesit disapeared completely!19:09
ign0ramusPhibes, huh?19:09
Phibeswell, its not in my places list anymore19:09
ign0ramusPhibes, do "sudo fdisk -l"19:09
ign0ramusPhibes, do you see it there?19:09
swattoAnyone know if there is a network info widget available?19:10
Phibesokay, it hasnt all but disapeared :p19:10
ign0ramusPhibes, phew! editing your fstab shouldn't delete partitions!19:10
ign0ramusPhibes, okay, but does it work how it should now?19:10
Phibes /sdb6 is still there but it doesnt show in places19:10
corigodsmith: and if you have 64bit system (and 64bit Linus) then much more as well19:11
ign0ramusPhibes, you should be able to add it back to the menu later if you want19:11
Phibesill just try on another partition (ext3) first19:11
ign0ramusPhibes, your ext3 partition (if you only have one), is the linux partition you're using now19:11
ign0ramusPhibes, it has to be mounted! (unless you're running on a livecd)19:11
Phibesyou sir, are incorrect, i have 2 (i think?)19:12
ign0ramusPhibes, that's why i said "if you only have one"... ;)19:12
Phibesaaah... I see, its now become a folder instead of a partition and is not in between 146! and the games partition19:13
ign0ramusPhibes, ext3/4 partitions will show as "linux" in the fdisk command19:13
Phibesokay...19:13
Walzmynhow can you move widgets on your taskbar?19:13
ign0ramusPhibes, but does it work how it should?  that's why we went through all this!19:13
Phibes/dev/sdb6             93241228  89071008   4170220  96% /mnt/ntfs19:13
Phibes/dev/sdb5             51472228  35588716  15883512  70% /media/Games19:13
Phibes/dev/sda1            153834852 100535584  45484852  69% /media/146!19:13
Phibesit does :D19:13
Phibessee at the end, mnt/ntfs means its mounted like i want to :D19:14
ign0ramusPhibes, so you are happy with the results?19:14
Phibesyes :D19:14
Phibesthx allot :D19:14
Phibesim gonna do the same to the others :)19:14
ign0ramusPhibes, np.... you had me sweating there for a minute!19:14
ign0ramusPhibes, do you know what you're doing?19:14
Phibeshaha :) well... lucky for you its not iraq :D19:14
Phibesill copy the line, change the number for sdb519:15
ign0ramusPhibes, very true :)19:15
ign0ramusPhibes, okay, you got it19:15
Phibesand for sda1...19:15
Phibesi dunno, its ext3 so...19:15
ign0ramusPhibes, keep in mind, the setting i gave it "default 0 0" are not very secure - they are globally readable/writable19:15
ign0ramusPhibes, leave the ext3 alone... it's already mounted when you start up linux19:16
corigoWalzmyn: click on the cashew at the end then select the widget and drag and drop19:16
Phibesokay... so that means 146! is ntfs...19:16
ign0ramusPhibes, anything windows would be ntfs (as long as its win2k or newer)19:16
Phibesyeah, but its just a folder with music (146!)19:17
Phibesill check it after the restart in a moment19:17
ign0ramusPhibes, well it is an entire partition (that is ntfs)19:17
Phibesi think ive got it now :)19:19
Phibeshttp://pastebin.com/m510ec53e19:19
ign0ramusPhibes, if you run "sudo fdisk -l" what is it's entry under "system"?19:19
ign0ramusPhibes, yeah, that should work :)19:20
ign0ramusPhibes, keep in mind what i said about permissions - that will make these partitions globally readable and writable...19:20

thehardmanhi.19:22
thehardmanI am running kubuntu 9.04 on a machine with 2 video outs. when it boots up it sees both monitors but I can figure out how to extended my desktop over to the other monitor instead of mirroring one monitor on another.19:23
thehardmancant figure out that is.19:23
thehardmando I have to edit the xorg.conf or is there a way to do it in the gui?19:24
ign0ramusdwidmann, you there?19:24
Phibesim sorry ign0ramus... but it doesnt work19:25
ign0ramusPhibes, they are not automatically mounted?19:25
Phibeswell, as said before, they are not in the places list anymore, and rhythmbox doesnt play the songs so no... i dont think so19:25
ign0ramusPhibes, you can change your mount point to /media where you have /mnt... that may put them back in Places (i don't use gnome...)19:27
ign0ramusPhibes, do you want to try that?19:27
Phibesyeah... ill try :()19:27

ign0ramusPhibes, oh, did you "sudo mkdir /media/ntfs" first?19:31
Phibesim back! and we are in iraq! with "You are not privileged to mount the volume 'Muziek'"19:31
ign0ramusPhibes, my fault for forgetting!19:32
kaddihi, my pc just froze (yet again -.-), the image is stuck, but the sound keeps playing... how can i get it unstuck?19:32
Phibeswell, i changed it under /media/Muziek now19:32
ign0ramusPhibes, you have to create a directory before you can mount to it... do all your mountpoints exist?  If not, you must create them with "mkdir"19:34
Phibesi ahev created mountpoits now /media/Muziek (/146! and /Games too)19:34
Dragnslcrkaddi- if KDE is completely frozen, ctrl-alt-backspace will force X to restart (you'll lose anything you haven't saved)19:34
ign0ramusPhibes, ok, can i see your fstab now?19:34
Phibesokay19:35
Phibeshttp://pastebin.com/m7385f13e19:35
ign0ramusPhibes, ok, provided you created the mountpoints correctly as you said, this should be good19:36
Phibesokay, then its of to another restart :)19:36
ezu5twhat is the kubuntu recommended program to use instead of "xnetcardconfig" ?19:37

=== jacob_ is now known as Guest95669
ezu5tmy hostname is lost, and and I have to ifdown ifup eth0 each time I reboot19:38
ign0ramusPhibes, if you run the command "mount", it will list all currently mounted devices ... your partitions should now be listed in there.19:39
Phibesyeah, 146! is the only one missing19:39
ign0ramusPhibes, cool! i was gonna mention that particular one...19:40
Phibeshttp://pastebin.com/m54e1a95919:40
ign0ramusPhibes, i'm not sure if the system correctly parses the "!" in the device name... not sure, but that may be why19:40
Phibesso i should call it 146 :P  and be done with it19:40
ign0ramusPhibes, sounds good.  but yeah, your other partitions are successfully mounted at startup now19:41
amorphous_nice kde4.  thanks :) --- anyone know what the best way to remove gnome from my system is? it wont allow me to remove gnome-desktop-environment... is there another?19:41
ign0ramusPhibes, if you still have issues with rhythmbox, it's not because the partition isn't mounted ;)19:41
Phibeswell, rhythmbox doesnt pick up 146! NOW19:41
Phibesoops, capslock19:41
ign0ramusPhibes, do your partitions show up in Places again?19:41
PhibesYou are not privileged to mount the volume '146!'.19:42
ign0ramusPhibes, try getting rid of that "!" first, and see if that helps19:42
Phibeshm, okay19:42
Phibesah!19:43
Phibes146! is ext219:43
ign0ramushaha!19:43
ign0ramusPhibes, yeah, ntfs-3g isn't going to help you mount an ext FS partition! :)19:43
* Phibes is ashamed19:43
ign0ramusPhibes, it's cool... i made quite a few mistakes along the way, too19:44
Phibeswell... can ext2 be mounted like the ntfs?19:44
Phibeswith a quick line in fstab?19:44
ign0ramusPhibes, i'm checking that now... (i've never actually had to do that with only one ext partition...)19:45
ign0ramusPhibes, "/dev/hda5 /media ext3 defaults 0 0" seems to be the proper syntax (of course, modify it for your setup)19:47
corigohow do I tell if I'm on 4.2.2. or 4.3?19:47
ign0ramuscorigo, go to Help > About KDE in any kde app19:47
ign0ramuscorigo, i think you would have to have added some separate repos to be running 4.3 (is that even out yet?)19:48
corigobeta 119:48
Phibesokay :)19:48
ign0ramuscorigo, ok, cool.. didn't know that.  I'm using 4.2.3, and it is pretty solid (compared to earlier iterations)19:48
Phibesso instead of ntfs-3g its ext3?19:49
ign0ramusPhibes, here's a good one for reference: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/mountlinux19:49
Phibesnot ext2?19:49
ign0ramusPhibes, wait, are you sure it's ext2?  that's fairly old...19:49
Phibesi am really really sure :D19:49
ign0ramusPhibes, you can tell for sure if you run 'gparted'19:49
Phibesi ran gparted19:49
ign0ramusPhibes, ok, then yes, use 'ext2'19:49
ign0ramusPhibes, i was just giving syntax - you make it work for your setup ;)19:50

nikolas_but why that happened?!?!?20:34
ign0ramusnikolas_, also, you may want to get rid of one junk line in there too... "title root"... that's not a valid entry20:34
kaddimark___ its jaunty with kde 4.2.3 ... It's been freezing a couple of days since yesterday afternoon... the only "special" thing I recall doing before was actually a reboot20:34
ign0ramusnikolas_, could be your fstab is incorrect (has happened to me before)20:34
kaddimark___ programs that would be running where a combinatino of konversation, kopete, firefox, thunderbird, vlc and/or amarok20:35
nikolas_shouldn't i correct fstab instead??20:35
ign0ramusnikolas_, well, when you can, pastebin it and i'll take a look20:35
nikolas_ok, i m booting on my desktop, gimme a sec!20:35
kaddimark___ the update on kde 4.2.3 is about 2 weeks old, the upgrade on jaunty 3-4 weeks. so that is nothing recent20:36
ign0ramusnikolas_, actually leave the "root" entry in your grub file.20:37
mark___kaddi...so you are running Amarok2 i assume?20:37
kaddimark___ yes, no choice there...20:38
Assurbanipalign0ramus: where is fstab to pastebin it?? it is nikolas_again20:38
ign0ramusAssurbanipal, /etc/fstab20:38
mark___i have also ran into some problems with Amarok 2 freezing up20:38
=== myrtilles is now known as kaddi
mark___hmm. ok20:39
Assurbanipalign0ramus:  http://pastebin.com/m745ce63520:39
kaddii'm running a memtest right now, just to be safe... looks good so far20:40
ign0ramusAssurbanipal, ok, it is not listed in fstab, which isn't bad, but then that's not the culprit20:40
kaddibut freezing also occurred while amarok wasn't running. IIRC20:40
ign0ramusAssurbanipal, do "sudo grub"20:40
ign0ramusAssurbanipal, then "find /boot/grub/stage120:40
ign0ramusAssurbanipal, what does it say?20:41
Assurbanipalgrub> find /boot/grub/stage120:42
Assurbanipal (hd0,1)20:42
Assurbanipal (hd1,0)20:42
Assurbanipalgrub>20:42
ign0ramusAssurbanipal, hmm... not sure why it gives you that.20:42
ign0ramusAssurbanipal, just type 'quit' to get out of there, and fix your grub file20:43
Eismann2 linux installations?20:43
Assurbanipalit must be finding an old installation on my other drive20:43
Assurbanipalbut i donnot boot from that hardrive20:43
ign0ramusAssurbanipal, right, but it's weird that (hd0,2) is what actually works20:43
Assurbanipalso what should i do to permenently fix that:?20:44
Assurbanipalshouldn't i fix fstub first?20:44
desuI upgraded to KDE 4.2.3 in Jaunty. Is there any way I can roll back to the default version of KDE in Jaunty?20:44
ign0ramusAssurbanipal, give me a minute20:44
kaddimarc___ I'll give it a shot without amarok.. if it really works that would be a great thing. :)20:45
mark___kaddi...does the same freezing occur when you run the same applications when running the gnome desktop?20:46
ign0ramusAssurbanipal, i'm not entirely sure how that happened20:47
kaddi_debugging would be so much easier if I actually had 1 machine that was working AND had a reliable internetconnection -.-20:47
ign0ramusAssurbanipal, i can tell you fixing your grub file will allow you to boot without problems, though20:47
Assurbanipaland what about fstab?20:48
kaddi_I haven't installed the gnome desktop, marc___, but I'll have a look :) the package is called ubuntu-desktop, isn't it?20:48
ign0ramusAssurbanipal, your windows partition isn't listed in your fstab20:48
mark___yes it is20:48
Assurbanipalshouldn't it be added?20:48
ign0ramusAssurbanipal, you can add it if you want it to be automatically mounted at startup20:48
Assurbanipali don;t know, i just want it to be right!!to be working without causing any problems in the future!20:49
mark___kaddi...you should have a choice of which seesion you want to use at the login screen is gnome not there?20:49
ign0ramusAssurbanipal, i had a similar issue that gave me incorrect info when reinstalling grub, but after I edited the grub20:50
ign0ramusAssurbanipal, ... i didn't have any other problems.  although i never did find out why it spit out the wrong (hdx,x)20:50
kaddi_mark___ i haven't installed the gnome-desktop manager, just downloading it now. I don't think both are installed by default, or are they?20:50
Assurbanipalso what should i do?20:50
ign0ramusAssurbanipal, "kdesudo kate /boot/grub/menu.lst"20:51
ign0ramusAssurbanipal, change line 110 to " root (hd0,2) "20:52
mark___kaddi...i suggest you try and see if the freezing occurs in gnome once you get it up and running and go from there20:52
ign0ramusAssurbanipal, then save and exit.  restart and try to start windows.  i am confident that this will work fine20:52
Assurbanipalok, i did it it should work now.hope won;t have aby problems in the future...tnx mate!20:53
ign0ramusAssurbanipal, i still cannot say for sure why the "find stage1" command gives something different, but with this, you will be fine20:53
ign0ramusAssurbanipal, np20:53
Assurbanipali think because it finds the file on my secondary hard drive that had an old kubuntu installation20:53
ign0ramusAssurbanipal, that could be... i didn't know you had 2 HDDs20:54
ign0ramusAssurbanipal, not at first, anyway20:54
sheytan_Hi everyone. Does anybody know if strigi indexing will work in Kubuntu with kde 4.3? now i have the better sesame backend installed, but even when i change in the config file redland to sesame2 it's still getting back to redland :/20:54

epimeth_sorry, alpha23:13
epimeth_You can install the beta of the native 64-bit version, it is available at the Adobe Labs site. You need to extract the file provided, and place it in the folder ~/.mozilla/plugins folder for each user who wants to use flash. Be aware that this is pre-release software and there could be bugs.23:13
