=== Kernel is now known as Wicked
SerpardumI tried installing grub 2 on my install and it broke ubuntu :/  had to reinstall00:02
W4gn3r_are you sure that it was grub itself?00:04
W4gn3r_sure I had a lot of problems with grub00:04
Serpardumyeah.  cause when I installed grub 2.0 it asked becausae I already had grub installed, kubuntu uses grub and 2.0 wasn't configured or soemthing00:04
alesanI would really like to go back to LILO.... grub is really a piece of software that never satisfied me00:05
alesanreally really annoying00:05
SerpardumIt might be possilbe to get 2.0 to work with kubunutu, but I don't know the details00:05
Serpardumhow many distros are using grub?00:05
shadeslayeranyone on kde 4.3 who can help me??00:05
W4gn3r_I thinked LILO was dead...00:05
Serpardumgrub documentaion isn't very good imo00:06
shadeslayer!grub > Serpardum00:06
ubottuSerpardum, please see my private message00:06
shadeslayercheck that out ;)00:06
W4gn3r_agreed00:06
W4gn3r_there is this grub-gfx00:07
W4gn3r_something like that00:07
shadeslayeranyone who can help me with kde 4.3??00:07

shadeslayerSerpardum: so you can edit menu.list.... add same lines as linux with some mods..00:08
moueledethank you00:08
shadeslayerW4gn3r_: i know...:)...i get a segmentation fault at startup00:09
ign0ramusmouelede, yw00:09
innovate2000is there a way to set a md device to clean (from active)? I've tried mdadm --assemble --assume-clean but only 4 of 6 devices are found - examine shows 2 devices as state=active00:09
shadeslayerW4gn3r_: kbuildsycoca400:09
shadeslayerthats my problem...gives me segmentation faults00:10
W4gn3r_shadeslayer: is there any way to going back to 4.2?00:10
shadeslayerW4gn3r_: i dont want to go back....im installing neon atm :P00:10
shadeslayerbtw there is...just remove the custom PPA and install kubuntu-desktop00:11
W4gn3r_I've heard a thing or 2 about neon, what is it?00:11
W4gn3r_"amarok neon" I think00:12
ign0ramusW4gn3r_, that's most likely what he was talking about.. the Amarok nightly builds00:13
W4gn3r_anyway, I think there is no solution right now, you should report your problem to the devs00:13
W4gn3r_neon is just KDE for amarok?00:13
ign0ramusW4gn3r_, http://amarok.kde.org/en/node/48200:14
agorhey, im having a problem with rubygems, I have tried installing rubygems, rubygems1.8 and rubygems1.9 - but when I type 'gem' in the terminal it just tells me that I can get 'gem' from rubygems1.8 or rubygems1.9... Does anyone know how I can solve this?00:15
Serpardumwhat's easiest way to find a file on the HD in kubuntu?00:16
ign0ramusSerpardum, "locate"00:16
Serpardumlocate.  thanks.  was tryign find00:16
ign0ramusSerpardum, find is a good command too, but if you know the filename, "locate <filename>" is as quick as it gets ;)00:17
SerpardumI did locate stage2   and nothing came back00:17
ign0ramusSerpardum, you are trying to repair grub?00:17
Serpardumno, this is new install00:17
Serpardumtryign to use it00:17
Serpardumfollowing instructions00:17
Serpardumhttp://wiki.osdev.org/Bare_bones00:18
W4gn3r_stage2 is in /boot/grub right?00:18
Serpardumthere it is, thanks00:18
Serpardumthe problem is that stage2 size is different than in the instructions.  it is size 121740.  Instructions say to make a pad file size 102400 - len(stage1) - len(stage2)00:19
ign0ramusSerpardum, strange, a "locate stage2" returns: "/boot/grub/stage2", along with 2 other entries00:20
Serpardumso no clue what size ot make it and grub documentation wasn't clear00:20
Serpardumign0ramus: My locate database probably isnt' built yet00:20
ign0ramusSerpardum, very well could be :)00:20
Serpardumlet me try googling for grub stage1 stage2 pad and see what I get :/00:21
W4gn3r_are you trying to install grub inside grub?00:21
W4gn3r_I mean, "sudo grub"00:21
SerpardumNo.  trying to make a boot image for grub to use00:22
lindenleWhy can't I see my local collection in amarok00:24
W4gn3r_lindenle: what version of amarok?00:25
lindenle2.0.2 on kubuntu00:26
frogmanhttp://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-get-atheros-ar5007eg-or-ar242x-wireless-cards-may-be-other-models-working-in-ubuntu-810-intrepid-ibex.html00:27
frogman^ Doesent even work !00:27
frogmanwhat the hell is going on here00:27
frogmandamn thing sucks.00:27
innovate2000frogman: try wicd - ALWAYS works00:27
lindenleW4gn3r_: ^^00:28
innovate2000frogman: it even connects to hidden wireless connections (ONCE you've set them up)00:28
W4gn3r_lindenle: Did you update your collection on the options window?00:28
frogmanhuh?00:29
W4gn3r_afair update colletion on the main window isn't working00:29
frogmanit doesent werk00:29
* frogman puts the xp cd back in.00:29
kaddiwhere can I check the font encoding in kde4?00:29
W4gn3r_lol00:29
lindenleW4gn3r_: did it from both and no go00:29
rosco_ycan anyone recommend a good dvd/movie player?00:30
lindenlerosco_y: mplayer00:30
ign0ramusrosco_y, smplayer or vlc00:30
innovate2000frogman: "you must do what you feel is best of course" - but if you "sudo apt-get install wicd" - this will replace the existing network manager - and will handle your wired and wireless connections flawlessly00:30
lindenle!info mplayer00:30
ubottumplayer (source: mplayer): The Ultimate Movie Player For Linux. In component multiverse, is extra. Version 2:1.0~rc2-0ubuntu19 (jaunty), package size 4340 kB, installed size 10120 kB00:30
W4gn3r_rosco_y: SMPlayer00:30
W4gn3r_lindenle: then I would recommend you to downgrade to amarok 1.4 (wich I'm using)00:31
ign0ramusrosco_y, we're all recommending the same thing - smplayer is the gui for mplayer00:31
rosco_yIt looks like we have a winner -- thank you all very much!00:31
lindenleW4gn3r_:  do I have to add a special repo00:31
W4gn3r_wait a sec, I'll get it00:32
ign0ramuslindenle, the PPA is this: https://launchpad.net/~bogdanb/+archive/ppa00:32
innovate2000frogman: if this is a driver issue - there MAY be a utility that will allow you to install the windows driver - I can't remember what is is right now - but I had a wireless usb  driver issue and used the windows driver with this utility and it worked well -00:33
W4gn3r_like ign0ramus said00:33
W4gn3r_=)00:33
innovate2000frogman: but I've never had a problem with Atheros drivers with Ubuntu00:33
ign0ramusW4gn3r_, sorry for stealing your thunder, but I too advocate Amarok 1.4 (for now anyway...)00:33
lindenlecool00:34
lindenlethx00:34
W4gn3r_lindenle: don't forget to remove amarok first00:34
lindenlei removed it00:34
lindenlebut  do not have the 1.4 version when I do apt-cache search00:35
ign0ramuslindenle, did you add the PPA repo?00:35
ign0ramus...and the key?00:35
lindenleah did not add the key00:35
ign0ramuslindenle, also, you must update your sources00:35
lindenleyeah i know00:36
lindenleex debian user...00:36
ign0ramuslindenle, then you know all too well ;)00:36
W4gn3r_ign0ramus: did you tried the beta 2.1, they did a lot of work, it has almost everything amarok 1.4 had00:36
ign0ramusW4gn3r_, does it have wikipedia integration?00:36
W4gn3r_broken00:36
W4gn3r_=/00:36
ign0ramusW4gn3r_, deal-breaker.00:36
ign0ramusW4gn3r_, musicbrainz or equivalent?00:37
lindenleyes00:37
Serpardumcan anyone think of an easy way to create a file of 396 bytes?  I know I could kate and type etc.. but can someone think of an easier way?00:37
W4gn3r_ok, I don't know what it this musicbrainz, I just use some basic features amarok have00:38
W4gn3r_=P00:38
alesanSerpardum, dd if=/dev/zero of=file bs=394 count=1 should do it00:38
W4gn3r_and the lyrics thing, that is broken on the beta too00:39
=== sebr_afk is now known as sebr
ign0ramusSerpardum, what alesan said.  see here for more details http://cyberpanda.wordpress.com/2009/05/03/ubuntu-create-an-empty-file-of-any-given-size/00:39
frogman_innovate2000: you said it was flawless00:40
frogman_innovate2000: damn thing sucks00:40
frogman_my wifi is still not working00:40
alesanfrogman, what are you referring to?00:40
WalzmynI goofed up and got gdm set as my default window manager (for login and such) how do i get kdm back?00:40
frogman_wicd00:40
frogman_i run it. and all it says is /var/run/wicd/wicd.pid00:40
frogman_and my wifi still NOT working00:40
lindenleW4gn3r_: exactsame shit in debian I was using the old amarok00:40
innovate2000frogman: did you see my last post? Is this a driver issue? Has it EVER worked in Ubuntu?00:41
kaddifrogman_ run wicd-client, that gives you a gui00:41
ign0ramusWalzmyn, sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm00:41
innovate2000I think wicd installs the client auto00:41
=== neptune_ is now known as afroboweg
innovate2000Walzman: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/purekdehardy00:42
ign0ramusfrogman_, what version of kubuntu are you running, and what card do you have?00:42
innovate2000that will give you KDE only00:42
innovate2000and remove gnome00:42
W4gn3r_lindenle: if you know amarok 1.4, do you know any plugin, addon or whatever that could show lyrics?00:42
frogman_damn thing sucks00:42
frogman_that didnt solve my wifi problems00:42
Walzmynign0ramus: someone told me to do dpkg-reconfigure kdm before - it didn't work00:42
frogman_why that was stupid00:42
frogman_that didn't solve my wifi problem00:43
Walzmyninnovate2000: don't want to get rid of it yet. I installed it so a friend could see it00:43
ign0ramusWalzmyn, the command above will allow you to choose kdm or gdm, provided they are both installed00:43
frogman_this is already wasting important busness time.00:43
frogman_i think we'll stick with windows.00:43
* frogman_ puts the xp cd back in00:43
innovate2000frogman: to say it sucks without more info is not helpful - I've asked you a couple of times whether this is a driver issue - has it ever worked in ubuntu?00:43
innovate2000what card/device is it?00:44
kaddihe left ;)00:44
ign0ramushe gone, innovate200000:44
lindenleHey guys how do i enable the window switching effect that is compiz?00:44
W4gn3r_in kubuntu?00:44
ign0ramuslindenle, enable desktop effects in System Settings00:45
ign0ramuslindenle, these are kwin effects, not sure how they relate to compiz anymore (i never use them)00:45
W4gn3r_lindenle could have installed compiz, who knows00:46
lindenleok00:46
ign0ramuslindenle, if you are using compiz, you'll want "compizconfig-settings-manager " too00:46
lindenlei have cover flow set but i still get a silly list00:46
innovate2000I am fairly new to ubuntu - and there's SO MUCH info online - but it is difficult when people come here and DEMAND help - and then just say "it sucks" -00:46
W4gn3r_if not, it's kwin effects00:46
lindenlenot too important for now00:46
innovate2000I only come here when I cannot find any solace with any info found online00:47
ign0ramusinnovate2000, i come here for surly chaps whose only threat is "I have an XP install disc in the tray!!!"00:47
ign0ramusinnovate2000, like a jumper on a bridge... :)00:48

ign0ramusSerpardum, i hope someone can help, but this channel is for kubuntu support00:52
innovate2000Yes - I still use Windows for many things - but I think in a few years when Ubuntu is strong enough - it will be easy to switch - there are a few issues (like OpenOffice is good - but *not quite* there yet...00:52

ign0ramusSerpardum, probably not much info on Bochs, though :/ (obscure)00:54
obladdaSerpardum: It sounds like a 64bit/32bit mismatch kernel to libraries to virtualbox version00:54

obladdaSerpardum: O00:55
Serpardumbochs error00:55
Serpardumlet me try to find another tutorial I guess.  maybe I can find one with virutal box00:55
innovate2000Whenever I have problems with it - that's what I do...never had a prob...00:55
Serpardum!virtualbox00:55
ubottuvirtualbox is a x86 !virtualizer. A !free edition is available from !Gutsy as 'virtualbox-ose'. A non-free edition is available at http://virtualbox.org for most Ubuntu releases (help in #vbox) - Setup details at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VirtualBox00:55
obladdaSerpardum: You should try QEMU without bochs00:56
SerpardumQEMU?00:56
obladdaSerpardum: Bochs wants access to the real processor00:56
Serpardum!qemu00:56
ubottuqemu is an emulator you can use to run another operating system - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsXPUnderQemuHowTo00:56

W4gn3r_guys, guys, do you know how can I change a file type icon?00:57
Serpardumthey need installs.  It would be easier if I just used another box, but dont' have one00:57
obladdaSerpardum: Doesn't require a real processor and emulates other processors fully. You can probably run bochs under QEMU00:58
Serpardumright click, properties, right click icon00:58
Serpardumer, left click icon00:58
W4gn3r_on KDE4.2 it isn't working01:01
obladdaSerpardum: qemu-img will convert a .VMDK image and virtualbox will convert a .VDI to a .VMDK01:01
W4gn3r_the hard way should work, the problem is I don't know the hard way.01:01

ubottuAttempting to downgrade to an older Ubuntu version is explicitly not supported, and may break your system.04:20
xp-killerthis S***04:21
xp-killer9.04 is no good and slow and buggy and lest suportive04:21
geniigalvao: First search through the Add/Remove Programs for what you want. If you don't see it there, then usually a .deb file from somewhere like Skype is safe to install, providing it is for the specific (K)ubuntu version04:21
galvaoThank you, genii04:22
geniixp-killer: 9.04 is an interim release between long term releases. It's not expected to be a polished release.04:22
xp-killerthen they should worn people04:22
galvaogenii: I remember Add/Remove in Ubuntu, but where can I find the related app in KDE?04:23
geniigalvao: In the newer kde4 it is completely different, if you use that (which I on't, currently)04:24
galvaoI mean... KPackageKit would be the analogue to Sinaptic, right?04:24
galvaogenii: I do *heh*04:24
geniigalvao: I *beliieve* it is then done by something called kpackage or so.04:25
AustLawwhen I open a text file from within dolphin, how can I make it so the current instance of kate is used instead of starting a new one?04:25
geniixp-ki http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/904 documents much of the known bugs, etc etc but people never read it04:25
geniibah, left04:26
galvaogenii: KPackageKit. But it seems to be "KDE's Synaptic" and not "KDE's Add/Remove"04:26
geniiSynaptic is right then04:26
galvaosearched on it, nothing found... Skype's package (from site) is for Ubuntu 8.04... *sigh*04:27
galvaoit's a .deb file tho04:27
geniiAustLaw:  -u switch04:28
AustLawhuh?04:28
galvaoI guess I'll have to close my eyes, click and wish for the best *lol*04:28
AustLaw-u switch on what?04:28
geniiAustLaw:  If you for instance used something like:  kate doc-1.txt ; kate -u doc-2.txt           it will use only the one instance of kate04:29
geniiAustLaw: So right click on the file to open, choose Open With.. then Other... then put in the command there of kate but with the -u on it04:31

rompstari used the kernelcheck app to download and compile a new kernel, do I need to update Brub ? or anything else, because after I re-boot, still only showing the old kernel choices in Grub Menu04:54
geniirompstar: That question is beyond the scope of this channel. PErhaps try #kubuntu-devel or #ubuntu-motu04:56
darrinHello, when I tried ubuntu there was a script that allowed someone "to right click a file and open as root". But I was wondering if there was a way to do rhis with Kubuntu? Thank you.04:57

sancho21No genii05:03
darringenii: there is no suck option when I click, " alsa-base,conf"?05:03
darrinlol sorry such05:04
geniidarrin: Ah. So likely at the moment it does not associate.conf with being something text. So try then instead: Open With... then Other   then type into the space there: kdesudo kate05:06
sancho21genii, how to fix this? I prefer GUI way to Terminal way so that I can promote Kubuntu as an easy OS to my friends05:06
darrinok thank you very much. I apprecite it.05:06
geniisancho21: Please pastebin your /etc/network/interfaces file and I'll take a look at it. My suspicion is there are entries in there for eth0 or so05:07

DragnslcrHm, what's the default program for getting an image from a scanner?05:15
EricBladehi all.. hope someone can give me some advice.. just running Kubuntu from liveCD .. computer has dual video cards.. one modern ATI x850, and one ancient ATI Rage II+.  How can I get X running on at least the Radeon, if not both? right now i'm stuck on the Rage05:16
doleybDragnslcr: there's gimp and xsane... and kolourpaint if you like kde ones.05:18
EricBladefound some instruction, but it includes "boot with one video card, run config on it, boot with other video card, run config on it." i'm not opening computer and pulling one card to be able to config it05:23

ubottuEricBlade: To re-enable the Ctrl+Alt+Backspace combination that restarts your X server, you can install the "dontzap" package and use the command « sudo dontzap --disable ». The combination Alt+SysRq+K can also be used to obtain a similar effect.05:47

EricBladeok.. back. .decided that was pretty much a lost cause trying to get it to run on a dual video card system.  next question, how the heck do you get Kubuntu to connect to a wireless network? I've got two computers, that it is apparently recognising the wireless on, as it says i have a wlan0 device, but i can't for the life of me figure out how to get it to actually do anything with it.06:07

shadeslayerMamarok: haha W: The "upgrade" command is deprecated; use "safe-upgrade" instead.08:02
Mamarokshadeslayer: well, yes, you have to install the neon packages from the repositories of course :)08:02
MamarokZengol: it has to be implemented in phonon, Amarok 2 doesn't handle sound at all08:02

VirkI recently added some ppa to my sources list, so as to be able to upgrade xorg to a higher version (the tomvolden ppa). However, it seems this isn't stable at all, so I removed the ppa from sources.list, but is there any way to revert back to the versions of the original ubuntu ppa?11:09
VirkThe only problem is I cannor recall the names of the packages11:10
umar__yes  iam using p4 3.2 intel pc  i just instal window ubuntu one and half year age its working very gud11:10

umar__ok tell me 8.10 is same like this11:14
Mamarokespecially if you are not used to do upgrades11:15
umar__or better from it11:15
Mamarokumar__: there is no same or better, those are different versions, and again, if your computer works and you can use it for all your needs, you should not change the settings11:15

RurouniJonesDoes anyone know how to get rid of that middle pane in Amarok2?13:00
RurouniJonesI just want the collection list and the playlist like in 1.413:00
shadeslayerMamarok: didnt work :(13:01
MamarokRurouniJones: you can drag the collection pane and the playlist pant to the middle so the middle pane doesn't show anymore13:01
shadeslayerMamarok: same package..kbuildsyscoa13:02
MamarokRurouniJones: else you will have to wait till 2.2 to see this change, eventually13:02
Mamarokshadeslayer: oh, hay :)13:02
Mamarokshadeslayer: same package, what do you mean?13:02
shadeslayerMamarok: as in same segmentation fault with kbuildsyscoa13:02
shadeslayerMamarok: also the kdebase was not installed again even thought apt said it downloaded it and installed it13:03
Mamarokshadeslayer: arghs, that sounds like a major dependicy problem, you should report that to Launchpad13:04
Mamarokshadeslayer: in the mean time you can run kbuildsycocy4 --noincremental13:04
Mamarokhope this helps13:04
Mamarokshadeslayer: what have you done now, upgrade to 4.3 beta1 or Neon?13:05
RurouniJonesCheers Mamarok. I can't seem to be able to drag the other ones to the middle pane, guess I'll have to wait and curse whoever thought Amarok2 could do with a UI overhall13:05
RurouniJonesoverhaul even13:05
shadeslayerbash: kbuildsycocy4: command not found13:05
MamarokRurouniJones: drag each one separately13:06
Pconfigshadeslayer: kbuildsycoca ;)13:06
MamarokRurouniJones: also, if you are running 2.0.2, this is quite old...13:06
Mamarokshadeslayer: typo or really not found?13:06
shadeslayerMamarok: it runs :)13:07
PconfigMamarok: you made a small typo ;)13:07
Mamarokshadeslayer: oh, great!13:07
shadeslayerMamarok: just this Warning: kbuildsycoca is unable to register with DCOP.13:07
MamarokI did? oops, sry13:07
Mamarokshadeslayer: no wonder, there is no DCOP in KDE 413:07
Pconfigshadeslayer: don't forget the 4 in behind13:07
Mamarokit uses DBUS13:07
RurouniJonesMamarok: Yea, I can't drag the other ones. Nothing I do appears to work.13:07
shadeslayeroh wait i ran it without the 413:08
MamarokRurouniJones: then it's your version, this is quite old, I'm sorry13:08
shadeslayerMamarok: crashed :(13:08
Mamarokshadeslayer: you will have to put that 4, else it tries to look for Qt3 :)13:08
Mamarokshadeslayer: you have all the Qt4 packages installed?13:08
Mamarokthe necessary ones I mean13:09
Mamarokbesides CLI bindings, -dev and -dbg13:09

ahmedi installed AdbeRdr9.1.1-1_i386linux_deu.deb by gdeb package installer i want to uninstall it how i do that13:11
ActionParsnipsudo dpkg -rP AdbeRdr   is my guess13:12
Mamarokshadeslayer: oh, Neon? I was looking elsewhere13:13
ActionParsnipahmed: the name of the package may be different, you can read     dpkg -l | less   to see what its called13:13
shadeslayerMamarok: is kdeedu needed??13:13
rachidh13:13
Mamarokshadeslayer: the easiest would be to install everything in Neom13:13
ActionParsnipahmed: it may all be lowercase (linux is case sensitive)13:13
Mamarokshadeslayer: not really, no13:13
shadeslayerMamarok: i did i did...13:13
Mamarokshadeslayer: you have to run Neon as a different session, you know that?13:13
shadeslayerMamarok: i installed the kde-nightly meta packagae..it pulled everything else in13:13
MamarokI was wondering if that error was not just the same as before13:13
shadeslayerMamarok: yes....'13:14
BlueAidan_workfor some reason, I am not seeing any of the xscreensaver screensavers in kde4's systemsettings dialog.13:14
MamarokBlueAidan_work: because the xscreensavers are a different package13:14
shadeslayerMamarok: it was different...but since i cant copy the bactrace13:14
BlueAidan_workI have kscreensaver-xsavers installed13:14
Mamarokshadeslayer: still, that's an error you get when you start a kde-NEON session?13:14
shadeslayerMamarok: yes13:15
BlueAidan_workand there is a glmatrix.desktop in /usr/share/kde4/services/ScreenSavers13:15

MamarokBlueAidan_work: it's not part of KDE, so no, that dependency is rightly not existing13:32
MamarokBlueAidan_work: but you can install it if you like13:33
BlueAidan_workMamarok: you're not understanding me... the kscreensaver-xsavers package purportedly installs support for xscreensaver in kde. it depends on xscreensaver-data, but you cannot actually use the xscreensavers in kde unless the xscreensaver package is installed.13:34
MamarokBlueAidan_work: well, adding support for something doesn't mean you *have* to install it, and you already have the kdescreensaver13:35

afeijoBluesKaj: no, windows seeing my music folder on a ntfs partition (if the partition type matters)15:31
geniiBluesKaj: However, for some reason the default set of packages only has the smbclient (client) and not samba(server) so normally this means you can browse to Windows shares from Linux but not other way around. Also for some reason the smbfs is not always installed. So even if you can browse to the Windwos share, can't always mount it successfully15:31

BluesKajafeijo_BR, you're wecome ...I hope it continues to work for you . Sometimes  the connection might drop off , so you may have to start over . Windows vista LAN networking is not very stable.15:52

Guest19980there's something on kde-look for that15:53
trancekaddi: What exactly is the problem? I'm not understanding15:54
geniitrance: The usage you did is fine, except remember also that everything is case-sensitive. The issue is likely more something like you have an Adept or Synaptic window open or are running the "Automatic Updates" at the same time you are trying to use the apt-get command.15:55
Guest19980kaddi: here: http://www.kde-look.org/content/show.php/I+HATE+the+Cashew?content=91009 Never tested it15:55
kadditrance: I removed the k-menu and would like to get it back. I tried lancelot, application launcher menu and application launcher, but they all don't look like the default k-menu I got with kde 4.2. This is why I wondered how the k-menu is called15:56
trancegenii: Alright thanks. I appreciate all your help thus far. If I can't figure out anything I'll just reinstall it's not that big of a deal right now anyway. T15:56
Guest19980kaddi: "the traditional" menu would be the Application Launcher plasmoid15:57

colton_I guess my question is analogous to "where do executable files go when you install a program?"17:19
colton_Perhaps it's a matter of just adding the directory of the executable to the path . . .17:19

bobmarleyi did try everything, still the same Prob i cann t restart or shutdown w/o to use Alt+SysRq+R+S+E+I+U+B22:04
bobmarleywith 2-6-24-(22,23,24) got no Prob, just the new kernel 2-6-28-11 is making trouble22:06
evolabhello22:09
BluesKajbobmarley, choose the recovery version at bootup , then choose fix broken packages...then once the dialog comes back choose normal boot22:09
WalzmynI installed gnome, and ignorantly told it to make GDM as the default window manager. I tried to get it back to KDM and now I get none - have to do cli login and sudo kdm to get to graphical login22:09
BluesKajWalzmyn, do you want to keep gnome ?22:10
bobmarleyi did the Prob Blueskaj, even the recovry mode of 2-6-28-11, i can restart and shutdown w/o a prob22:10
WalzmynBluesKaj: for at least the end of the week22:10
evolabwhat's this22:11
evolab?22:11
WalzmynBluesKaj: but gnome is set to default, so if i just "startx" i get ga-nome instead of kde :(22:11
evolabexit22:12
Walzmynevolab: what's what?22:12
BluesKajWalzmyn, not sure whether this will work or not , sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg22:12
WalzmynBluesKaj: will try, its different than the last thing i tried :)22:12
WalzmynBluesKaj: do i want to use kernel framebuffer device interface?22:14
BluesKajnot sure , sometimes it works sometimes not22:15
leonardo____ist22:15
leonardo____list22:15
WalzmynBluesKaj: that only delt with the keyboard, nothing to do with default window manager22:18
BluesKajWalzmyn, one suggestion , if you have synaptic installed , click on edit/fix broken packages22:19
WalzmynBluesKaj: ok22:19
BluesKajlooks like you have a dependency problem22:19
BluesKaj!X22:20
ubottuThe X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type « sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart » in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution22:20
WalzmynBluesKaj: i think it's a config problem. I found something calling in gdm, so i changed it to kdm - dind't work. I22:21
Walzmyndamnit22:21
BluesKajnogdm is the gnome window manager22:21
WalzmynI've ran some manager-setup thing someone suggested , but it didn't work either22:21
BluesKajare you getting a login screen at boot up?22:22
WalzmynBluesKaj: synaptic took .1 seconds to fix pacakges, i'm assuming i dind't have any22:22
BluesKajdid you click on the green check mark in synaptic22:23
WalzmynBluesKaj: no, now it's going straight to cli login. If i use startx, i get gnome, i can sudo kdm and get the standard graphical login, then get kde22:23
WalzmynBluesKaj: check didn't light up22:23

BluesKajWalzmyn, you could try to remove gdm reboot and reinstall22:28
Spleegerhoffenhow do i get on a channel to get help?22:29
WalzmynBluesKaj: is that going to fix the problem that it's not calling in KDM like it's supposed to? I mean, kdm is on there now, but it's not using it until i tell it too22:29
WalzmynSpleegerhoffen: you are22:29
Spleegerhoffenokay22:29

WalzmynSpleegerhoffen: start a name, and hit "tab" to auto complete22:34
coreymon77Spleegerhoffen: easiest way to do it, type the first few letters, and then press tab22:34
WalzmynSpleegerhoffen: i'm not sure about your plasmoids moving around22:34

blueyedSpleegerhoffen: don't know about your problem, though.. sorry.22:35
coreymon77Spleegerhoffen: sorry, my computer isnt quite powerful enough to run kde4 reliably22:35
SpleegerhoffenWalzmyn: I don't know what i'm doing22:35
Spleegerhoffenit's okay22:36
coreymon77i have kubuntu on an old dell desktop box22:36
SpleegerhoffenI don't know what I'm doing22:36
SpleegerhoffenKDE is something new to me22:36
coreymon77works great, but too old to run kde4 very well, so im still on an older version of kubuntu with kde322:36
SpleegerhoffenI've always used the gnome interface22:36
WalzmynSpleegerhoffen: kde4 is new to all of us22:36
coreymon77so, i havent really had much time to play around22:36
Spleegerhoffenis KDE 4 a lot different than KDE 3.5?22:37
coreymon77quite22:37
* coreymon77 is on a mac atm anyways22:37
WalzmynSpleegerhoffen: they pretty much started over for KDE422:37
Spleegerhoffenwell, I've done it once before, and I might do it again. I'll just play around untill i mess something up, then I'll reinstall22:37
coreymon77even though i am using konversation as my irc client22:38
Walzmyni'm really liking this new quassel22:38
SpleegerhoffenWalzmyn: can anyone else see these messages?22:38
coreymon77Spleegerhoffen: yup, everyone22:38
Walzmynok, i'ma reboot and see if this fixed anything22:38
Walzmynyes22:38
SpleegerhoffenWalzmyn: because sometime I've got 3 people saying the same thing22:38
Spleegerhoffen:P22:38
WalzmynSpleegerhoffen: that's 'cause we were all typing at the same time22:39
SpleegerhoffenWalzmyn: lol22:39
Spleegerhoffenwell, I guess that I'll keep messing around, then I might reinstall it again22:39
Spleegerhoffenfun stuff22:39
Spleegerhoffenit looks good anyway22:39
SpleegerhoffenI like the looks of KDE22:39
SpleegerhoffenAlthough, I don't like Konqueror22:40
Spleegerhoffenso I installed Firefox22:40
coreymon77i'm currently waiting for konversation to be upgraded to kde4 native so that a mac native version can be made22:40
SpleegerhoffenLinux rocks22:40
Spleegerhoffenbye bye22:40
coreymon77because while x11.app has come a very long way, it is still not perfect22:41
coreymon77:P22:41
ign0ramus coreymon77, there is a kde4 version of konversation22:41
coreymon77ign0ramus: its still the kde3 version22:41
ign0ramuscoreymon77, the konversation team has had a kde4 version for a while now, but it is not included in the kubuntu repos22:41
coreymon77even if there is, its not fully stable yet22:42
coreymon77and until it is stable release, a native mac version wont be made22:42
serpicohi22:50
LeeJunFanIs there a way to get dolphin to browse 7z archives in the way it browses all others?22:52
ign0ramusLeeJunFan, don't think it will integrate within dolphin, but p7zip will allow you to browse 7z archives22:53
ign0ramusso i've added a script to adjust my mtrr (intel graphics) in /etc/init.d ... how do i know this script is actually being run on startup?22:54
sparrow_sorry got dropped... as soon as I sent this... "I am trying to get kdm to appear on second display of a dual-head nvidia GEForce 6200... I only get the standard X cursor on one display but the correct arrow and "desktop" does display on the other window"  Any ideas?22:56
geniiign0ramus: Did you do something like: sudo update-rc.d /etc/init.d/scriptname.sh defaults              ?22:59
Barridusargh, how do i get the menu bar back in KRDC?23:13
white_pelicanif i wan the control panel in kde 4 and want to run it from the command line, how do I do that?23:21
white_pelicanwant23:21
LeeJunFanign0ramus: yeah, ark will browse them too, but I like the way dolphin handled browsing .tar.gz and .tar.bz2. With those compression formats I can compress html e-books, etc and treat them like they were a filesystem basically.23:23
LeeJunFanign0ramus: owell, maybe in 4.3.1 or something.23:23
