[00:00] well, if anything worked for you... maybe a fresh install === Kernel is now known as Wicked [00:02] I tried installing grub 2 on my install and it broke ubuntu :/ had to reinstall [00:04] are you sure that it was grub itself? [00:04] sure I had a lot of problems with grub [00:04] yeah. 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 soemthing [00:05] I would really like to go back to LILO.... grub is really a piece of software that never satisfied me [00:05] really really annoying [00:05] It might be possilbe to get 2.0 to work with kubunutu, but I don't know the details [00:05] how many distros are using grub? [00:05] anyone on kde 4.3 who can help me?? [00:05] I thinked LILO was dead... [00:06] grub documentaion isn't very good imo [00:06] !grub > Serpardum [00:06] Serpardum, please see my private message [00:06] check that out ;) [00:06] agreed [00:07] there is this grub-gfx [00:07] something like that [00:07] anyone who can help me with kde 4.3?? [00:07] that's well and good, but doesn't help me to boot to my own image, only linux === mikekap` is now known as mikekap [00:08] bonkour à vous tous !! ça parle français ? [00:08] fr | mouelede [00:08] shadeslayer: KDE4.3 is still in beta [00:08] !fr | mouelede [00:08] mouelede: Ce canal est en anglais uniquement. Si vous avez besoin d'aide ou voulez discuter en francais, merci de rejoindre #ubuntu-fr [00:08] Serpardum: so you can edit menu.list.... add same lines as linux with some mods.. [00:08] thank you [00:09] W4gn3r_: i know...:)...i get a segmentation fault at startup [00:09] mouelede, yw [00:09] is 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=active [00:09] W4gn3r_: kbuildsycoca4 [00:10] thats my problem...gives me segmentation faults [00:10] shadeslayer: is there any way to going back to 4.2? [00:10] W4gn3r_: i dont want to go back....im installing neon atm :P [00:11] btw there is...just remove the custom PPA and install kubuntu-desktop [00:11] I've heard a thing or 2 about neon, what is it? [00:12] "amarok neon" I think [00:13] W4gn3r_, that's most likely what he was talking about.. the Amarok nightly builds [00:13] anyway, I think there is no solution right now, you should report your problem to the devs [00:13] neon is just KDE for amarok? [00:14] W4gn3r_, http://amarok.kde.org/en/node/482 [00:15] hey, 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? [00:16] what's easiest way to find a file on the HD in kubuntu? [00:16] Serpardum, "locate" [00:16] locate. thanks. was tryign find [00:17] Serpardum, find is a good command too, but if you know the filename, "locate " is as quick as it gets ;) [00:17] I did locate stage2 and nothing came back [00:17] Serpardum, you are trying to repair grub? [00:17] no, this is new install [00:17] tryign to use it [00:17] following instructions [00:18] http://wiki.osdev.org/Bare_bones [00:18] stage2 is in /boot/grub right? [00:18] there it is, thanks [00:19] the 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) [00:20] Serpardum, strange, a "locate stage2" returns: "/boot/grub/stage2", along with 2 other entries [00:20] so no clue what size ot make it and grub documentation wasn't clear [00:20] ign0ramus: My locate database probably isnt' built yet [00:20] Serpardum, very well could be :) [00:21] let me try googling for grub stage1 stage2 pad and see what I get :/ [00:21] are you trying to install grub inside grub? [00:21] I mean, "sudo grub" [00:22] No. trying to make a boot image for grub to use [00:24] Why can't I see my local collection in amarok [00:25] lindenle: what version of amarok? [00:26] 2.0.2 on kubuntu [00:27] http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-get-atheros-ar5007eg-or-ar242x-wireless-cards-may-be-other-models-working-in-ubuntu-810-intrepid-ibex.html [00:27] ^ Doesent even work ! [00:27] what the hell is going on here [00:27] damn thing sucks. [00:27] frogman: try wicd - ALWAYS works [00:28] W4gn3r_: ^^ [00:28] frogman: it even connects to hidden wireless connections (ONCE you've set them up) [00:28] lindenle: Did you update your collection on the options window? [00:29] huh? [00:29] afair update colletion on the main window isn't working [00:29] it doesent werk [00:29] * frogman puts the xp cd back in. [00:29] where can I check the font encoding in kde4? [00:29] lol [00:29] W4gn3r_: did it from both and no go [00:30] can anyone recommend a good dvd/movie player? [00:30] rosco_y: mplayer [00:30] rosco_y, smplayer or vlc [00:30] frogman: "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 flawlessly [00:30] !info mplayer [00:30] mplayer (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 kB [00:30] rosco_y: SMPlayer [00:31] lindenle: then I would recommend you to downgrade to amarok 1.4 (wich I'm using) [00:31] rosco_y, we're all recommending the same thing - smplayer is the gui for mplayer [00:31] It looks like we have a winner -- thank you all very much! [00:31] W4gn3r_: do I have to add a special repo [00:32] wait a sec, I'll get it [00:32] lindenle, the PPA is this: https://launchpad.net/~bogdanb/+archive/ppa [00:33] frogman: 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] like ign0ramus said [00:33] =) [00:33] frogman: but I've never had a problem with Atheros drivers with Ubuntu [00:33] W4gn3r_, sorry for stealing your thunder, but I too advocate Amarok 1.4 (for now anyway...) [00:34] cool [00:34] thx [00:34] lindenle: don't forget to remove amarok first [00:34] i removed it [00:35] but do not have the 1.4 version when I do apt-cache search [00:35] lindenle, did you add the PPA repo? [00:35] ...and the key? [00:35] ah did not add the key [00:35] lindenle, also, you must update your sources [00:36] yeah i know [00:36] ex debian user... [00:36] lindenle, then you know all too well ;) [00:36] ign0ramus: did you tried the beta 2.1, they did a lot of work, it has almost everything amarok 1.4 had [00:36] W4gn3r_, does it have wikipedia integration? [00:36] broken [00:36] =/ [00:36] W4gn3r_, deal-breaker. [00:37] W4gn3r_, musicbrainz or equivalent? [00:37] yes [00:37] can 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? [00:38] ok, I don't know what it this musicbrainz, I just use some basic features amarok have [00:38] =P [00:38] Serpardum, dd if=/dev/zero of=file bs=394 count=1 should do it [00:39] and the lyrics thing, that is broken on the beta too === sebr_afk is now known as sebr [00:39] Serpardum, what alesan said. see here for more details http://cyberpanda.wordpress.com/2009/05/03/ubuntu-create-an-empty-file-of-any-given-size/ [00:40] innovate2000: you said it was flawless [00:40] innovate2000: damn thing sucks [00:40] my wifi is still not working [00:40] frogman, what are you referring to? [00:40] I goofed up and got gdm set as my default window manager (for login and such) how do i get kdm back? [00:40] wicd [00:40] i run it. and all it says is /var/run/wicd/wicd.pid [00:40] and my wifi still NOT working [00:40] W4gn3r_: exactsame shit in debian I was using the old amarok [00:41] frogman: did you see my last post? Is this a driver issue? Has it EVER worked in Ubuntu? [00:41] frogman_ run wicd-client, that gives you a gui [00:41] Walzmyn, sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm [00:41] I think wicd installs the client auto === neptune_ is now known as afroboweg [00:42] Walzman: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/purekdehardy [00:42] frogman_, what version of kubuntu are you running, and what card do you have? [00:42] that will give you KDE only [00:42] and remove gnome [00:42] lindenle: if you know amarok 1.4, do you know any plugin, addon or whatever that could show lyrics? [00:42] damn thing sucks [00:42] that didnt solve my wifi problems [00:42] ign0ramus: someone told me to do dpkg-reconfigure kdm before - it didn't work [00:42] why that was stupid [00:43] that didn't solve my wifi problem [00:43] innovate2000: don't want to get rid of it yet. I installed it so a friend could see it [00:43] Walzmyn, the command above will allow you to choose kdm or gdm, provided they are both installed [00:43] this is already wasting important busness time. [00:43] i think we'll stick with windows. [00:43] * frogman_ puts the xp cd back in [00:43] frogman: 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? [00:44] what card/device is it? [00:44] he left ;) [00:44] he gone, innovate2000 [00:44] Hey guys how do i enable the window switching effect that is compiz? [00:44] in kubuntu? [00:45] lindenle, enable desktop effects in System Settings [00:45] lindenle, these are kwin effects, not sure how they relate to compiz anymore (i never use them) [00:46] lindenle could have installed compiz, who knows [00:46] ok [00:46] lindenle, if you are using compiz, you'll want "compizconfig-settings-manager " too [00:46] i have cover flow set but i still get a silly list [00:46] I 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] if not, it's kwin effects [00:46] not too important for now [00:47] I only come here when I cannot find any solace with any info found online [00:47] innovate2000, i come here for surly chaps whose only threat is "I have an XP install disc in the tray!!!" [00:48] innovate2000, like a jumper on a bridge... :) [00:48] ign0ramus: LOL! exactly! [00:49] bah, bochs balked. [00:49] anyone familiar with bochs? [00:49] Serpardum, I used a german virtualization program called Das Virtuel Bochs [00:50] * ign0ramus groans at his own lame joke [00:50] I'm running bochs and getting panics [00:50] I LOVE (K)ubuntu! It rocks! I've converted most of my entire network from Windows - I only use Windows for Active Directory - but am slowly testing converting to Ubuntu LDAP - once my kung fu is strong enough - I will. [00:50] kubuntu fu? [00:51] kbuntfu? [00:51] everybody was kubuntu fighting [00:51] lol [00:51] YES! Kubuntu Fu! [00:51] rock rock to the planet rock! [00:51] well, Kubuntu for almost everything but Windows games [00:52] =/ [00:52] in bochs, anyone know what this means in english? >>PANIC<< dlopen failed for module 'x': file not found [00:52] the mysterious module 'x' [00:52] Serpardum, i hope someone can help, but this channel is for kubuntu support [00:52] Yes - 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] Serpardum: this is in grub? [00:52] is this in grub [00:53] bochs first [00:53] (sorry) [00:53] bochs error [00:53] !bochs [00:53] Sorry, I don't know anything about bochs [00:53] Serpardum, you'd probably have better luck posting on their forums or their irc channel, if they have one [00:53] * Serpardum thinks [00:53] Serpardum: I missed why you don't want to use virtualbox-ose [00:53] jesus! german errors? [00:53] I am using virtual box === yuriy_ is now known as yuriy [00:54] but I dont' have any isntructions for virutal box [00:54] Serpardum, there's an entire wiki, and lifehacker has a great tutorial [00:54] I"m just tryign to get a bootstrap to work [00:54] Serpardum, probably not much info on Bochs, though :/ (obscure) [00:54] Serpardum: It sounds like a 64bit/32bit mismatch kernel to libraries to virtualbox version [00:55] found 2 tutorials so far, followed instructions, neither worked. [00:55] I'm using virtual box to run kubuntu which I'm tryign to run bochs in [00:55] Serpardum: Vbox error? did you try "sudo /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup"? [00:55] Serpardum: O [00:55] bochs error [00:55] let me try to find another tutorial I guess. maybe I can find one with virutal box [00:55] Whenever I have problems with it - that's what I do...never had a prob... [00:55] !virtualbox [00:55] virtualbox is a x86 !virtualizer. A !free edition is available from !Gutsy as 'virtualbox-ose'. A non-free edition is available at http://virtualbox.org for most Ubuntu releases (help in #vbox) - Setup details at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VirtualBox [00:56] Serpardum: You should try QEMU without bochs [00:56] QEMU? [00:56] Serpardum: Bochs wants access to the real processor [00:56] !qemu [00:56] qemu is an emulator you can use to run another operating system - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsXPUnderQemuHowTo [00:56] aptitude show qemu;aptitude search qemu [00:57] guys, guys, do you know how can I change a file type icon? [00:57] they need installs. It would be easier if I just used another box, but dont' have one [00:58] Serpardum: Doesn't require a real processor and emulates other processors fully. You can probably run bochs under QEMU [00:58] right click, properties, right click icon [00:58] er, left click icon [01:01] on KDE4.2 it isn't working [01:01] Serpardum: qemu-img will convert a .VMDK image and virtualbox will convert a .VDI to a .VMDK [01:01] the hard way should work, the problem is I don't know the hard way.

[04:19] Greetings. Recently migrated from Ubuntu to Kubuntu. An app like Skype, for an example, have downloads specifically crafted for "*U*buntu". Are there any issues I should be concerned or is it ok to download and use those? [04:20] xp-killer: There is no downgrade [04:20] !downgrade [04:20] Attempting to downgrade to an older Ubuntu version is explicitly not supported, and may break your system. [04:21] this S*** [04:21] 9.04 is no good and slow and buggy and lest suportive [04:21] galvao: 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 version [04:22] Thank you, genii [04:22] xp-killer: 9.04 is an interim release between long term releases. It's not expected to be a polished release. [04:22] then they should worn people [04:23] genii: I remember Add/Remove in Ubuntu, but where can I find the related app in KDE? [04:24] galvao: In the newer kde4 it is completely different, if you use that (which I on't, currently) [04:24] I mean... KPackageKit would be the analogue to Sinaptic, right? [04:24] genii: I do *heh* [04:25] galvao: I *beliieve* it is then done by something called kpackage or so. [04:25] when 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] xp-ki http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/904 documents much of the known bugs, etc etc but people never read it [04:26] bah, left [04:26] genii: KPackageKit. But it seems to be "KDE's Synaptic" and not "KDE's Add/Remove" [04:26] Synaptic is right then [04:27] searched on it, nothing found... Skype's package (from site) is for Ubuntu 8.04... *sigh* [04:27] it's a .deb file tho [04:28] AustLaw: -u switch [04:28] huh? [04:28] I guess I'll have to close my eyes, click and wish for the best *lol* [04:28] -u switch on what? [04:29] AustLaw: If you for instance used something like: kate doc-1.txt ; kate -u doc-2.txt it will use only the one instance of kate [04:31] AustLaw: 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 it [04:42] Why is my KDE4.2 didn't not use DHCP by default?

I must call dhclient manually everytime I start my computer [05:03] sancho21: Did you at some time edit the /etc/network/interfaces file? [05:03] No genii [05:03] genii: there is no suck option when I click, " alsa-base,conf"? [05:04] lol sorry such [05:06] darrin: 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 kate [05:06] genii, how to fix this? I prefer GUI way to Terminal way so that I can promote Kubuntu as an easy OS to my friends [05:06] ok thank you very much. I apprecite it. [05:07] sancho21: 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 so [05:08] darrin: You're welcome [05:08] :) [05:08] !paste | sancho21 [05:08] sancho21: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu.com (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #kubuntu channel topic) [05:15] Hm, what's the default program for getting an image from a scanner? [05:16] hi 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 Rage [05:18] Dragnslcr: there's gimp and xsane... and kolourpaint if you like kde ones. [05:23] found 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 it [05:26] genii: Thank you again. That worked. [05:32] ok, ctrl-alt-backspace doesn't kill X anymore.. what's up with that [05:35] erichttp://kubuntuforums.net/forums/index.php?topic=3100383.0 [05:35] Bah [05:35] * genii goes back to bed [05:47] !dontzap | EricBlade [05:47] EricBlade: 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. [05:49] Hey, wondering if someone can help me out. What on earth do I do with a .install file? [05:52] okdonkey: where did you get an install file? maybe you're supposed to type ./install [05:53] well it appears to be a plane text file with some repository info in it === hemathor_ is now known as hemathor [06:07] ok.. 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. [06:15] i guess n/m on all that, looks like the livecd is completely useless anyway [06:20] yeah this is ridiculous [06:20] later === Quintasan_ is now known as Quintasan === retep is now known as ^peter^ [07:34] hello [07:42] hi :( [07:46] Mamarok: hey there [07:47] hi im installing neon on jaunty...what package do i install?? kde-nightly or the ones listed on their site?? [07:53] kdewallet keeps asking me for a password when I login for my wireless connection. I disabled the kdewallet, and now it asks for my wireless encryption details. is there anyway I can avoid typing in a password to connect to wireless? [07:54] guys can i install the gnome network manager on kubuntu 9.04 [07:58] shadeslayer: morning :) [07:58] Mamarok: hiii [07:59] Mamarok: just woke up?? [07:59] shadeslayer: well, all Neon packages would be a good idea [07:59] * uberadm likes shadeslayer 's nick [07:59] shadeslayer: nope, laundry and stuff to do :) [07:59] uberadm: thanks ;) [07:59] ubottu, [08:00] Mamarok: ah..ok so do i install kde-nightly or the package listed on theri home page ;) [08:00] lol, typo :-P [08:00] shadeslayer: well, you add the PPA repository to your sources.list, add the gpg key and then update your list [08:01] Mamarok: all updated...i thought i had to install a package?? its listed on their site [08:01] in kNetworkManager (9.04) there is a "system connection" box that is grayed out ... why? [08:01] what package would i need to install gnome network manager on kubuntu [08:01] Is there a way to implement an equalizer in Amarok 2? [08:02] Mamarok: haha W: The "upgrade" command is deprecated; use "safe-upgrade" instead. [08:02] shadeslayer: well, yes, you have to install the neon packages from the repositories of course :) [08:02]
