ubottukscd (source: kdemultimedia): audio CD player for KDE 4. In component main, is optional. Version 4:4.2.2-0ubuntu2 (jaunty), package size 428 kB, installed size 1596 kB00:09
=== Jorjao is now known as Ursinha
Bauldrick_ActionParsnip: i put disk in - ask to play it with kscd - kscd starts but does nothing. as if it can't see device00:10
Bauldrick_/media/cdrom0 is linked to /dev/scd0 which is linked to /dev/sr0 (the device i guess00:11
ActionParsnipBauldrick_: is there an option in kscd to set the cd device?00:11
Bauldrick_ActionParsnip: no - the only option is to eject cd when finished!!!!!!00:12
ActionParsnipBauldrick_: does it have a man page?00:12
ActionParsnipBauldrick_: what app would you like to play cds in?00:13
Bauldrick_i'd like to put a cd in the tray and it play, so kscd - do you think it's the symlinks? why does it goto /dev/scd0 and that link to /ev/sr000:14
kingjereBauldrick_: Your problem rings a bell. Try tail -f /var/log/messages in a terminal then play a cd00:14
ActionParsnipBauldrick_: /dev/scd0: symbolic link to `sr0'00:15
ActionParsnipBauldrick_: is the optical drive a sata drive?00:16
ActionParsnipor is it pata?00:16
Bauldrick_ActionParsnip: sata - played a cd after 'tail' - __ratelimit: 8 callbacks suppressed00:18
Bauldrick_^^ in vlc ofcourse00:19
ActionParsnipBauldrick_: thought so: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kdemultimedia/+bug/35558100:19
Bauldrick_ActionParsnip: cheers, i'll look through that link on buttom bug page00:23
Bauldrick_ActionParsnip: simple, or not! (for me atleast) kscd looking for /dev/cdrom. but that wasn't there, only cdrom2 was, so ln -s cdrom2 cdrom, it works!00:35
ActionParsnipBauldrick_: sweet move bro00:35
miyaviDoes anyone know how to speed up the key repeat and shorten the repeat delay?00:48
JontheEchidnamiyavi: in System Settings, go to the Keyboard and Mouse section00:49
JontheEchidnaon the first page there should be rate and delay settings00:50
miyaviI must be blind, because I checked there twice00:50
JontheEchidnahmm... maybe it's because I'm running KDE 4.3 beta00:50
miyaviThat might do it00:50
miyaviI'm on the stable one00:50
drbobbJontheEchidna: nope no such thing there00:50
drbobbwell not in the standard jaunty version00:51
JontheEchidnaThis is what it looks like in 4.3: http://imagebin.ca/view/iOJhIjv.html00:51
drbobbmiyavi: xset can do that00:51
miyaviJontheEchidna: http://i41.tinypic.com/zmyviu.jpg This is what I've got00:54
JontheEchidnayeah, must be new in 4.3 :(00:55

miyaviYou need help with that? o.o01:01
drbobbmiyavi: xset r rate N M01:01
drbobbN is the delay in milisecs, M the rate of repeats per sec01:01

miyaviWhy did you get a webcam in the first place?01:08
sylvanus_so I could maybe make some friends and connect with people01:09
miyaviYou'll probably wanna head over to stickam.com then01:09
miyaviIt's a site like myspace/facebook, where you set up a chatroom of sorts01:09

sylvanus_is it safe to use a webcam is there anything I should know?01:10

bdizzlehi, I was wondering if anyone could help me diagnose a very annoying problem of 9.04 freezing up every 10 to 15 minutes on me02:38
super-captain-reim quite the noob when it comes to linux, could someone perhaps give me a pointer as to how to run an update when i do the update in a terminal and it says to run the update to fix the issues02:39
bdizzlesuper-captain-re: sudo apt-get update02:40
super-captain-reyeah but then it says you might want to run the update to fix the problems02:41
super-captain-rei did it again, and it said the same thing02:41

Jcklusb stick nor keyboard nor usb serial04:14
iivvign0ramus: yeah, and those fonts all work (i'm using consolas right now), but the default anti-aliasing is too fuzzy04:15
iivvbut when i turn it off, everything's too jagged04:15
ign0ramusiivv, then you can adjust anti-aliasing in System Settings > Appearance04:15
slackerare you using a PS2 keybaord04:15
ign0ramusiivv, > Fonts04:15
Jckli was tring to get my usb to serial converter to work which it did work before upgrading to 9.0404:16
iivvign0ramus: i have, and while that does tweak things a bit, its still too fuzzy. so i tweaked .fonts.conf and now some fonts are a bit spaced out04:16
Jcklthe keyboard is a usb wireless keyboard i connected to test it04:16
slackernot sure about the serial adapter, never used one04:17
ign0ramusiivv, you should be able to restore your config... if you've edited the file, there should be a .bak file created04:17

BoostedR36MK3also my wireless shows up as eth1?06:55
alakhiaBoostedR36MK3:  i suppose you already tried the settings?06:56
BoostedR36MK3if i set the wired connection in a terminal i can get it to connect06:57
BoostedR36MK3but i cant get network management to do anything with it06:57
BoostedR36MK3ande for the wireless i cant scan for networks at all06:57
alakhiai don't think i'll be of much help ... last time i had problems i hacked my /etc/rc.local to get it to work06:58
BoostedR36MK3what did you do to it06:58
alakhiai added: /etc/init.d/networking restart06:59
alakhiabasically, i restarted networking after logging on06:59
alakhiathat somehow got things working07:00
alakhiai also had to restart networking after a suspend07:00
BoostedR36MK3hm07:00
alakhiaso i also added the same command in /etc/acpi/sleep.sh07:00
BoostedR36MK3sudo iwlist eth1 scan works07:00
BoostedR36MK3so now i just need to figure out what is wrong with network management07:00
alakhiai bypassed network manager all together07:01

alakhiayou might try a live cd of 9.04 and see if your networking is better? I found that upgrades sometimes mess things up07:05
alakhiaif the live cd is better, you might wish to do a clean install07:06
BoostedR36MK3maybe i probably should have reinstalled it lol.. i had no panels in kde or nothing after the upgrade07:06

Mamarokserpico: well, he might get used to it if he tries a few times? Once a second user is loaded it's quite easy to use the shortcut, and that's should be possible to associate to a desktop icon10:13

Mamarok{DC}Ken: beware though, if you edit it with your admin rights which is default when you login in recovery mode11:33
{DC}Kenok I tried logging in in recovery and it logged me in but I still didn't have permission11:34
Mamarok{DC}Ken: you have to change the ownership back to the user after that11:34
Mamarok{DC}Ken: you don't have to log in at all, starting in recovery mode gives you sudo rights by default11:34
{DC}Kenok11:35
Mamarokand the default editors around are either vi or nano AFAIR11:35

kaddi_how can I enter a folder whose name begins with a $ in shell?11:42
Mamarokkaddi_: you can't, the $ is not an allowed sign in file or folder names11:43
Mamarokas it is used for environment variables11:43
desukaddi_: cd \$foo11:43
makdaknifeescape the $ with a backslash11:44
Mamarokstill not allowed, you really should avoid that sign in names11:44
makdaknifeMamarok: it is allowed... I just tested it11:44
makdaknifeMamarok: not ideal... but it works11:44
Mamarokmakdaknife: well, it shouldn't then11:44
desutechnically, you can have ANYTHING except '/' in file names11:44
desulinux and most of the filesystems allow everything except '/'11:45
desu*linux kernel11:45
kaddi_desu that doesn't work in my case... :/11:45
desukaddi_: you're doing it wrong11:46
desukaddi_: what error are you getting?11:46
Mamarokwell, it still is a reserved character and therefore it should not be used in file or folder names, escaping it is in XML or LaTeX or scripts11:46
kaddi_my bad... desu,wrong tab... :/11:47
desuMamarok: well, the OS allows it, the filesystem allows, most of the apps allow it...11:47
desuthose apps which do not, need to be fixed11:47
kaddi_Mamarok, tell that to Microsoft :p I'm lurking in my windows-wastebin ;)11:48
Mamarokdesu: this doesn't change the fact it is a reserved character, so allowing it is not a good idea IMHO11:48
desuMamarok: reserved character or not, it is still allowed... neither the OS nor the FS care which shell you're using and whether you need to espace that character :P11:50
desu*escape11:50
Mamarokcheck your linux books, guys: http://tinyurl.com/rescharacters11:50
kaddi_autocomplete won't work on \$RECYCLE.BIN though, it only offers the variables. Which is why I thought that backslash didn't work11:50
Mamarokkaddi_: yes, I know, Windows allows a lot of stuff that shouldn't be *sigh*11:51
desuMamarok: neither the OS nor the FS care which characters your shell considers "reserved".11:52
kaddi_In fairness: they don't use $ for their variables either, so I suppose they didn't really see a problem in allowing them... I've never tried to name a file %comspec% or similar on Windows ... should be fun though :D11:52
desuso, yeah, they're perfectly legal and perfectly normal.11:52
makdaknifeMamarok: I just read through the chapter in your link to the Linux cookbook... there is nothing there to say that these characters are illegal, only that they are reserved and if you want to usethem they need to be quoted or escaped... our advice to kaddi was to escape the dollar sign, which is exactly what the linux cookbook tells you todo11:59
Mamarokmakdaknife: well, bad wording on my side, but reserved means they should not be used elsewhere12:02
Mamarokespecially if one wants to use a script that points to filenales or folders, it makes your work more compilcated and error prone12:03
Mamarokso unless you really have to, I would suggest not to use it, the alphanumeric character set is wide enough for folders and filenames12:04
makdaknifeMamarok: point taken... generally I avoid even using spaces in filenames etc... but that's because I'm a lazy coder... unfortunately if you want to script anything that is beyond the scope of your own usage and conventions, you need to accept that some people just do stupid things because those things are still permitted...12:06

EruaranHi, I have a notebook system with Kubuntu 9.04 on it and it just wont connect to some wireless routers13:55
AceKingDarkTan: I'm not sure how to do that. You'll need someone with more experience.. Sorry13:55
DarkTanok13:55
EruaranSome it has no problem with, but others it just loops, repeatedly asking for your password13:55
Eruarananyone know what to do ?13:55
DarkTanrun Xfce on those routers13:56
DarkTanerr... when conecting to those routers13:56
DarkTanI've had the same problem since 6.1013:56
DarkTanKDE won't connect, Xfce will. I don't know why13:57
EruaranWhat does Xfce use to connect ?13:57
Eruaran(can't I just install the part I need ?)13:57
DarkTani'm not sure, would have to log out to find out. but it does have it;s own network manager13:57
Eruaranah13:57
Eruaranfixing problems on linux is fun13:59
DarkTanindeed13:59
Eruaranthere is always a solution one way or another13:59
DarkTanso, you kow how to install programs rom tar.gz files?13:59
EruaranWindows on the other hand, makes me want to kill myself13:59
EruaranIn general yes14:00
EruaranAlthough most that I've installed that come like that tend to not need anything but to be uncompressed (like Skype)14:00
DarkTanwell. i think wine needs more than that14:01
EruaranAre you using Kubuntu ?14:01
DarkTanyeah, but i need an older version of wine14:01
EruaranNot using the one in the repositories ?14:01
Eruaranah i c14:02

DarkTanfree MMORPG14:04
Eruaranyes14:05
Eruaranhmm I've only got Wine 1.0.1 in the repositories here14:06
DarkTani got an older one directly, just don;t know how to install it14:07
Eruarancould force install it14:08
Eruaranand deal with the broken packages as you go14:08
Eruaran:P14:08
DarkTanhow does that work?14:08
Eruaranmight be a bit of a pain but might still be ok14:09
Eruaranjust a sec14:10
EruaranIt will require some bash commands14:12
EruaranI'm a novice with bash but with a bit of googling its still doable14:12
DarkTanok, will fiddle later14:13

SanityInAnarchySo... what happened to WPA in 9.04?14:25
SanityInAnarchyAnyone? Because I'm starting to feel like I should expect basic things to stop working in Kubuntu. First bluetooth, and now this...14:26
kaddi_SanityInAnarchy: I think there is a bug with the knetworkmanager, but both the gnome nm-applet and wicd should be able to connect to WPA14:26
kaddi_installing wicd will uninstall networkmanager though. just as a warning14:27
GodHandHi, im making my own kubuntu live cd using UCK. doe any1 know how to change the default plasma theme while rooted??14:27
SanityInAnarchyAh, alright. Just like the solution for bluetooth in 8.10 -- use something from gnome.14:27
kaddi_I think wicd isn't gnome... but maybe check that with the other people here. ;) And I found it works much better than nm.. but that's opinion :)14:28
SanityInAnarchyWell, true, wicd probably isn't. But you know, this worked in 8.10.14:29
kaddi_yes I know... and there where many other things that worked back in 8.10 :) I really regretted upgrading at first, but after overcoming these problems, jaunty is actually quite nice :)14:29
SanityInAnarchySeems par for the course in kde4 -- take the perfectly working kde3 network manager app, port it to kde4, and drop features.14:30
kaddi_networkmanager never worked for me in kde3, lol14:30
JontheEchidnayeah, networkmanager sucked in kde3 too, but in different ways14:30
kaddi_hehe, don't make the same problems twice, eh? ;)14:31

ign0ramusspeedj, are you using a Kubuntu install disc or an Ubuntu install disc?23:07
mihalisi will have to give it a try because even if apparmor ships with kubuntu 9.04 Crispin Cowan (lead programmer) was hired by MS and it will be abandoned...23:07
speedjSo, I download the paquets "Langage Fr" (with sudo apt-get...), but my applications are again in english23:08
mihalisspeedj try download the original iso from kubuntu site23:08
mihalisand install from there23:09
ign0ramusspeedj, in System Settings, there is Regional & Language... have you tried specifying votre langue there?23:09
ign0ramusspeedj, Once you change your language, log out and when you log in once more, your system should be in your preferred language23:11
speedjThat's a good idea, but I want Gnome+KDE, and I suppose that if i install Ubuntu and after Kubuntu, it may become a problem for the partitions of mondrive disk...?23:11
speedj*on my drive disk23:12
mihalishoe did you install kubuntu once again ... ?23:12
mihalis*how23:13
ign0ramusspeedj, if you are installing 2 OSes on 2 separate partitions, simply select your language using the install procedure23:13
ign0ramusspeedj, if you are using gnome and kde on a single install and switching between the two, make sure each environment is set to your language in each environment23:14
mihalisign0ramus shounldn't he install the kde 4 packages on the same partition?23:14
mrrHello23:14
mihalis(an opinion)23:15
speedjBy the "gestionnaire of paquetages" (i'm sorry, i don't know the word in english for "gestionnaire")23:15
ign0ramusmihalis, it depends on what he is trying to accomplish...23:15
ign0ramusspeedj, your "package manager"23:16
speedjyes23:16
speedjI search "kubuntu-desktop" in my package manager, and i install kubuntu23:17
luigihello23:17
speedjand now, i have a problem with the language of kubuntu23:17
ign0ramusspeedj, yes, and when you log into kde, you can change the language if it is not what you want ... in System Settings23:17
luigiidem23:17
=== cnu_ is now known as cnu
mihalishave you  installed your specific language packages ....?23:18
speedji know that, i try, but...impossible, my applications stay in english23:18
ign0ramusspeedj, did you log out of kde, and then log in again?23:18
speedjyes, i installed the package in fr23:19
speedjyes23:19
speedjbut nothing23:19
ign0ramusspeedj, do you have23:21
ign0ramus"kde-l10n-fr23:21
ign0ramusinstalled?  (stupid enter button)23:21
speedjah, no, maybe a solution23:22
ign0ramusJontheEchidna, you here?23:23
speedjand i install this by the command "sudo apt-get kde-l10n-fr" ?23:23
ign0ramusspeedj, ouai23:23
speedjok, thank you23:23
speedjthank you ignoramus23:24
ign0ramusspeedj, hope this helps you23:24
ign0ramusspeedj, pas de probleme :)23:24
speedjmerci :-)23:24
ign0ramusspeedj, then try to apply your language again in kde and log out and log in... you *should* have your apps in your language then.23:25
speedjok, i try this now23:26
speedjand so, i must be quit IRC, because I have on Gnome this23:27
speedjgood bye23:27
trappistif I play video in any app, including flash, as in youtube, every couple of minutes it seems to have a minor siezure, the audio and video skip a few seconds.  this is ever since the upgrade to jaunty.  anybody else seeing this?23:29
ign0ramustrappist, what kind of graphics card?23:30
trappistign0ramus: ati, but I talked to a guy earlier who had the same issue with nvidia23:31
trappistI was hoping to find him here again to ask him if he's running compiz23:31
ign0ramustrappist, does it work better if you are not running compiz?23:31
trappistign0ramus: I don't know, it's a bit of a pain to shut down compiz, and I may have to watch 20 minutes of video to test.  was hoping to find more issue-friends before going through all that.23:32
trappista pain because I have a zillion apps running, and they don't usually handle the transition well23:32
trappistbefore you say it, though, it does still happen with all those apps shut down23:33
ign0ramustrappist, i don't have ati, so i cannot duplicate... my only advice would be to checking compositing (compiz) and your ati drivers23:33
trappistign0ramus: well I got confirmation earlier that it's not ati-specific.  also not amd-specific and a bunch of other things, but it may be compiz-specific... my compiz performance suffered a lot with the upgrade too.23:34
trappistmaybe I could log in with gnome and see if it still happens.  that's a pain too though, so maybe tonight I'll do all that at the same time.23:35
ign0ramustrappist, Jaunty has a lot of video regressions (especially with Intel graphics)... it would help to narrow down your issues by doing things like disabling compiz and seeing if you have the best driver for your graphics first... .0223:35
gmiernickianyone else having problems with linux-rt hanging the entire system a few minutes after logging in?23:35
gmiernickilinux-rt seems VERY unstable :(23:35
trappistign0ramus: yeah that's what I want to do, narrow it down - preferably by finding somebody with the same problem and a somewhat similar setup, but I'll gather more info here and come back to whine some more ;)23:36
ign0ramustrappist, we'll be here :)23:36
trappistgmiernicki: I wouldn't recommend running linux-rt unless you're like running a nuclear power plant or something23:37
gmiernickiits supposed to be used in DAW's23:37
gmiernickifor realtime audio in jack23:37
trappistah that - yeah that's another good use :)23:37
gmiernickiof coz, its pretty frustrating when the system hangs for no apparent reason23:38
trappistI would imagine you'd have to be careful what kind of resources you have competing for realtime execution23:38
gmiernickiand the #linux-rt ppl have nothing good to say about the ubuntu linux-rt package23:38
trappistthey probably know what they're talking about23:39
trappistyou could build your own rt kernel23:39
gmiernickiyes, they develop the real kernel patch23:39
gmiernickiapparently the ubuntu team did their own, and it sucks :(23:39
gmiernickisorry i cant be more apathetic23:39
trappistI wouldn't be surprised if there's a bunch of other (maybe unnecessary stuff) in the ubuntu rt kernel that may conflict with its realtime-ness23:40
trappistmy advice would be to file a bug and build your own rt kernel23:40
gmiernickiu got me there, i dont know much about how the ubuntu kernel team works23:41
gmiernickiim not sure building my own kernel would be the best approach, as i would have to go with 2.6.2923:41
trappistI don't know much about the team, but I know distro kernels in general and ubuntu kernels in specific are chock full of non-mainline features that are nice for most systems but not so nice for others... including, apparently, realtime systems23:41
gmiernickiprolly cause all sorts of fun problems with 9.0423:41
trappistI wouldn't expect that to be a problem at all.  in fact I just saw an announcement of a repo that provides daily builds straight from the git tree.23:42
gmiernickicould you post the link to that?23:42
trappistlet me dig it up...23:43
nightdreverhow do i get a room list?23:43

trappistgmiernicki: I'm not sure how you'd fashion your sources.list, but here's the announcement: http://blog.redvoodoo.org/2009/05/daily-upstream-crack-of-day.html23:45
ign0ramusnightdrever, /list is one way, but it may flood your connection23:45
trappistI think /list takes a filter argument23:46
DasEinightdrever: /list                   in your irc client23:46
trappistthere's a bazillion channels, you don't want the full list23:46
ign0ramustrappist, it can, but if you are looking for a complete list, no filters necessary23:46
nightdreverthankz23:47
trappisttrue, but the complete list is probably too long to be very useful for most purposes23:47
ign0ramustrappist, touche :)23:47
solipcystHello everyone.  So, I'm trying to nail down why my boot takes so long, and I installed bootchart from the official repos, but it doesn't seem to be working? (no trace of bootchartd on my system).  Any help?  General boot speed help is much appreciated as well.23:48
ign0ramussolipcyst, have you turned off usplash to see what operations are being performed at boot?23:49
solipcystign0ramus: no i haven't.  i've tried switching switching around my views with ctrl+alt+function-keys, and one of the screens says something to the effect of "loading hardware..." while it hangs23:50
solipcysthow would i temporarily turn off usplash?23:51
ign0ramussolipcyst, edit your "/boot/grub/menu.lst" and take the word 'splash' out of the string you boot from23:51
ign0ramussolipcyst, this is probably your quickest and easiest way to troubleshoot long boot times... you should start there first.23:52
solipcystign0ramus: i'll give that a go.  any clue about my original question regarding bootchart.  a quick search turned up a lot of dead ends regarding bootlogging in general other than bootchart.23:52
ign0ramussolipcyst, never used bootchart :/23:53
solipcystign0ramus: no problem.  i probably should have tried a simpler route such as the one you suggested first anyway.  i'll likely be back here soon :)23:53
ign0ramussolipcyst, best of luck!23:54
DasEisolipcyst: check your /var/log/syslog for errors,  do a: dmesg > dmesg.txt in trml an check the txt file, install bum and pick out uneeded services23:54
DasEi!bum23:54

phoenixzHow can I let SSH ignore the knownhosts file? I have some weird problem with a program that keeps replacing the knnown host file and with that it messes up its own ssh calls.. I want to configure ssh to ignore the known hosts file for the moment, just to be able to continue testing. How do I do this?23:54
