[00:06] it still says set pspdev [00:06] which means it wants u to pacifecally add it to the certain login script [00:08] where is the kubuntu login script??? [00:09] harjot, what did you name your script? [00:10] startup.sh [00:10] harjot, did you make it executable? [00:10] yup [00:10] w8 just a sec [00:12] thanks it worked just had to logout and in again [00:12] harjot, i knew it would :) [00:12] harjot, and the word is 'specifically'. specifically. [00:16] here's a question... if i were to buy a print-server device... a device that allows a USB printer to be attached to a network, making it a network printer... could i then just attach my linux computer to that print-server device without drivers? [00:17] usually you'll need the driver for the printer still, the print server will just forward requests to the printer [00:18] another question... could I use a windows XP computer to run all of my printer devices, and share out the printer on THAT computer on my network... i've got a junker around her somewhere... could my linux box run that printer then? (no drivers exist -at all- for my cannon onlinux) [00:18] as long as you get the server running cups [00:19] most printers will work with the default "postscript" driver too [00:19] !print | LoreCaster, have a read of this [00:19] LoreCaster, have a read of this: Printing in Ubuntu is done with cups. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Printers - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsPrinters - http://linuxprinting.org - Printer sharing: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NetworkPrintingFromWindows [00:24] oh i was typing too quick to spell [00:26] Does anyone know how I can boost the sound on my computer? I have all the dilas all the way up and I can barely hear anything [00:26] dials [00:30] Daskreech, i had a similar issue on Hardy, that was somewhat improved by downloading the latest alsa drivers, but I'm not even sure that works anymore :/ [00:31] how much better? [00:31] Daskreech, from "whisper" to "library talking" [00:31] Daskreech, i use scientific empirical measurements only ;) [00:31] Ok I'm about library talking now wouldn't mind a Folk concert upgrade [00:32] THough a polka concert will be acceptable [00:32] Daskreech: turn the amp on? :D [00:32] Daskreech, haha! to this day, the sound is considerably better when i boot into windows on this lappy (Intel HD sound) [00:32] I may have to buy one if this keeps up I can't work without music [00:33] Yeah it is [00:33] But then I have to go and download drivers from the Manufacturere everytime I reinstall windows [00:33] Which is an ungodly number every 1/4 year [00:34] Daskreech, that is a pain, but a computer without good sound is only 1/2 a computer (imho, anyway) [00:34] Preaching to the silent chior over here [00:34] Daskreech, desktop or laptop? [00:34] Desktop [00:34] Daskreech, what sound card? [00:34] my computer just died and someone loaned me one [00:35] some AC97 VIA chipset [00:35] Daskreech, hmmm... widely supported... [00:35] But quietly ignored [00:36] that is the problem with a kernel that is a jack of all trades [00:36] Don't they do regression testing? [00:36] and vendors that hate OSS [00:36] Daskreech, if you had Intel Integrated Graphics, you would swear they didn't. [00:38] Daskreech, i assume you ran alsamixer or equivalent to check all levels, yes? [00:38] Or ignoring that can't Ubuntu stop using the latest kernel and opt for one that works? [00:39] kmix but in the past kmix has been a direct interface to alsamixer for me [00:39] Daskreech, well, that's the thing... with the advent of PulseAudio, I'm not even sure how sound really works in Jaunty. [00:40] Daskreech, it took me forever, but I finally had a good config using Gutsy/Hardy, and I skipped Intrepid altogether [00:40] Kubuntu doesn;t use pulse [00:41] Daskreech: but it is installed by default on jaunty [00:41] Can you run alsa mixer and tell me the DB offset for master at 100% [00:41] I d say first point of call to remove it [00:42] Not installed [00:43] Kde doesn't use it so neither does Kubuntu [00:43] Daskreech, jussi01: what exactly do i need PA for at all then? [00:44] Near as I heard it someone asked that exact question and couldn't get an answer which is why Kubuntu doesn't ship with it. CD space is too precious for that [00:44] Daskreech, i'm on a fresh (dvd) install, and I most certainly have PulseAudio... [00:45] I'm on a CD Install with no Gnome products and I don't [00:46] see the release notes Daskreech [00:46] * jussi01 is now headde to bed [00:46] Daskreech, as it was installed by default, i assumed it had taken over much of the piping/mixing that ALSA does, and so didn't mess with it. But the more I hear about it, the less it seems like it serves much of a purpose... [00:46] Thouh if it had an Equalizer that I could push up the Db ... [00:46] jussi01: What sound card do you have?

If I remove the plasmoid and reinstall knetworkmanager, I can connect to the Verizon, but not to wireless networks. While I truly enjoy apt-get, I would love to have 1 location for managing my network connections. And chance of that happening?

Para ayuda en Español, por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es o #kubuntu-es. [01:51] jpedroza: try wicd [01:51] anyone used oss 4 ? [01:52] Daskreech: Will that handle Broadband (CDMA) connections? [01:52] jpedroza: And hopefully the KDE network plasmoid will be more and more capable as it moves forward it's in Alpha right now (It's still not released) so there is a good chance of that. The plan is whatever NM supports it shall as well [01:54] Daskreech: But will it work with ppp connections like knetworkmanager. The web site just talks about wired and 802.11 [01:54] jpedroza: I can ask if you like [01:55] I just droped in [01:55] dropped that is [01:56] Dropped in? [01:56] sparr: Hello [01:56] Daskreech: To #wicd [01:56] Ah :) [01:57] Daskreech: No mobile broadband [01:57] so it looks like I will be switching back and forth for the forseeable future. [01:58] jpedroza: I will try and find out if the KDE network plasmoid will have the functionality soon [01:58] Is there any reason knetworkmanager would not connect to 802.11 wireless networks? [01:59] That is the only thing keeping me from using it full time. [02:03] Or is knetworkmanager depreciated to the point that I can't use it? [02:03] For wireless that is [02:03] jpedroza: it should still work [02:03] but AFAIK almost all development is for the network manager plasmoid [02:04] what does afaik mean [02:05] AFAIK = as far as I know [02:05] xjjk: My issue is that I can connect to wireless with NetworkManager, but not knetworkmanager. I can connect to my Verizon Broadband connection (CDMA) from knetworkmanager, but not NetworkManager. [02:05] jpedroza: that's interesting... [02:05] jpedroza: you mean, GNOME's nm-applet when you say NetworkManager, right? [02:05] xjjk: I have been running into the same issue since 9.04 was released. [02:06] xjjk: No, the Plasmoid NetworkManager [02:07] too many projects with the same name =) [02:07] jpedroza: have you tried GNOME's nm-applet? [02:07] xjjk: I have not. [02:08] jpedroza: the package's name is nm-applet [02:08] xjjk: Can't find it... [02:09] xjjk: Well, apt can't find it [02:09] jpedroza: sorry, I think the package name is network-manager-gnome [02:09] the actual program is called nm-applet [02:13] xjjk: Looks like I can connect to wireless with it [02:14] xjjk: Testing MobileBroadband [02:14] Anybody else have a problem with the update notifier saying there are 8 updates, even when there aren't any?

[02:49] hi all, What is the name for the preferred kubuntu package manager? [02:50] The default program in 9.04 is KPackageKit, but pretty much anything that uses apt (Adept, Synaptic, aptitude, etc.) will work fine [02:50] okay :) [02:51] Btw, how do I use knetworkmanager? [02:51] I wanted to add a widge, but there is no networkmanager widget [02:54] There should be [02:55] for KDE??? [02:56] how do I stop kubuntu from auto detecting eth0 and configuring it? [02:57] I want to use my own /etc/network/interfaces [03:00] AussieGuy: if you have a stanza for eth0 in /etc/network/interfaces, then NetworkManager/Ubuntu won't take control of it [03:00] AussieGuy: it will however keep NetworkManager watching (but not managing) the interfce, to send D-BUS events on link up/down events [03:00] solved teh problem where kontact was not able to sign/encrypt messages [03:01] gpg-agent was not running. I manually added it to .kde/env/ butmaybe there is a "supported" way to have that automatically happen [03:02] ive got a bridge [03:02] with eth0 connected to the bridge [03:02] and the bridge connected to the internet [03:03] AussieGuy: mmm [03:03] AussieGuy: AFAIK I think you can still define eth0 in /etc/network/interfaces, but however tell Ubuntu to not do anything with it [03:03] virtual machines also get connected to the bridge [03:03] yah I understand the problem [03:04] I usually have such setups only on servers, which won't have NetworkManager installed [03:06] so you can uninstall it? [03:07] AussieGuy: yes, easily [03:07] AussieGuy: er, actually, if you're running a desktop, maybe so easily [03:07] will it run if I was to shut down kde/gnome completely [03:07] I think kubuntu-desktop depends on it [03:07] and gdm/X [03:07] AussieGuy: yes [03:07] NetworkManager is good at being annoying [03:11] done it, seems to work now, eth0 has no IP, bridge has one, bridge is connected to the net [03:11] and eth0 to the bridge [03:12] what did you do?
