| skierpage | katoda, Thanks. It would sure be nice if KPackageKit showed what PPA caused a particular package or update listing. | 00:00 |
| Zorael | togetic: Does your /usr/sbin/update-openoffice-dicts exist, to begin with? | 00:00 |
| Zorael | togetic: also, have you tried simply renaming your home folder to something else and have your DE recreate its files? | 00:01 |
| togetic | one sec, need to chown into the system since i'm using a live cd atm | 00:01 |
| Zorael | just mount it :) | 00:01 |
| togetic | right | 00:03 |
| togetic | but to use apt-get i'll need to chown | 00:03 |
| Zorael | I imagine you mean chroot, but yeah, point taken | 00:04 |
| katoda | re | 00:04 |
| katoda | does anybody with kde 4.3beta2 confirm disappearing of restart icon (K->Leave->Restart)? | 00:04 |
| togetic | I mean chroot | 00:04 |
| togetic | and i am chrooted so... let's look for the file | 00:05 |
| Zorael | right, /usr/sbin/update-openoffice-dicts | 00:05 |
| togetic | Zorael: no, the file doesn't exist | 00:06 |
| togetic | i used locate and looked myself | 00:06 |
| togetic | i haven't tried renaming it | 00:06 |
| togetic | it == my home folder | 00:06 |
| togetic | how would the DE recreate the files, you might have to explain that one a little further | 00:07 |
| Zorael | first of all, do you have the dictionaries-common package installed? (apt-cache policy dictionaries-common) | 00:07 |
| * tr_hawk waves goodbye | 00:09 | |
| Zorael | katoda: No, I have the icon and I'm on 4.3b2 | 00:09 |
| togetic | Zorael: no i don't | 00:09 |
| togetic | needed? | 00:09 |
| katoda | Zorael: and do you have "administrator mode" in kde system settings? | 00:10 |
| togetic | do i need dictionaries-common or dictionaries-common-dev? | 00:11 |
| Zorael | togetic: well, iirc the package that refused to configure was an openoffice package, and openoffice seems to depend on that dictionaries-common, so seems like a broken dependency. try installing it; sudo aptitude install dictionaries-common | 00:11 |
| Zorael | katoda: No, been missing for quite a while, I think? | 00:11 |
| katoda | Zorael: AFAIR in 4.2 it was availible | 00:12 |
| Zorael | katoda: Maybe, I've been running it with kdesu for quite a while though | 00:13 |
| katoda | Zorael: ok, nvm, i want my restart icon back! ~~ ;-) | 00:13 |
| togetic | http://paste.ubuntu.com/193065/ | 00:14 |
| togetic | Zorael ^ | 00:14 |
| togetic | and anyone else willing to help ^ | 00:14 |
| Zorael | togetic: sudo aptitude reinstall openoffice.org-hyphenation-en-us dictionaries-common+ | 00:15 |
| Zorael | (last + important) | 00:16 |
| togetic | what does the plus sign do? | 00:17 |
| togetic | that worked whatever it was | 00:18 |
| Zorael | it installs dictionaries-common and reinstalls openoffice.org-hyphenation-en-us | 00:18 |
| togetic | interesting | 00:18 |
| Zorael | quite! | 00:18 |
| togetic | now i can't even recall why i needed apt to work :P | 00:19 |
| togetic | anywho, need kdm fixed now i suppose | 00:19 |
| Zorael | for your WM, do you get as far as to the login screen? | 00:19 |
| togetic | maybe it has to do w/ permission | 00:19 |
| togetic | kdm is as far as i get | 00:19 |
| togetic | and i can login through a tty screen, but no X | 00:19 |
| togetic | ..i think.. | 00:19 |
| Zorael | kdm, as in the greeter, right? | 00:19 |
| togetic | let me reboot into the machine to find out | 00:19 |
| togetic | si senor | 00:20 |
| togetic | yes | 00:20 |
| Zorael | Anyway, try creating another user | 00:20 |
| togetic | i could use one of the several already there right? | 00:20 |
| togetic | i haven't tried them yet | 00:20 |
| togetic | will reboot now | 00:20 |
| Zorael | if the permissions of your home directory is botched (though we fixed /home itself earlier), creating a new one should make it work for him/her/it | 00:20 |
| Zorael | Several already there? o.0 | 00:21 |
| katoda | Zorael: I'm here :P | 00:21 |
| katoda | give me my restart icon back! :D | 00:21 |
| Zorael | katoda: It's mine now! | 00:21 |
| * Zorael runs off, laughing hysterically | 00:22 | |
| katoda | Zorael: you have stolen it from me! | 00:22 |
| * katoda thinks how it happens | 00:22 | |
| * katoda doesn't use IE though | 00:23 | |
| Zorael | katoda: Tried reinstalling the icon packages? sudo aptitude reinstall kde-icons-oxygen kdeartwork-theme-icon | 00:23 |
| terettes15 | i need help with this codecs i just down loaded. | 00:24 |
| katoda | don't have kdeartwork-theme-icon installed :P | 00:24 |
| katoda | maybe it'll help | 00:24 |
| Zorael | perhaps it's something I installed, omit it | 00:25 |
| katoda | Zorael: maybe it'll help ;) | 00:25 |
| Zorael | Ah, yeah, it's a part of the kdeartwork bundle | 00:25 |
| Zorael | katoda: can't hurt :3 | 00:25 |
| katoda | Zorael: can you locate somehow the path of the icon? | 00:26 |
| Zorael | katoda: hum. | 00:27 |
| katoda | Zorael: got it | 00:27 |
| Zorael | katoda: Ah, cheers | 00:28 |
| katoda | . /usr/share/icons/oxygen/64x64/actions/system-restart.png | 00:28 |
| katoda | but it still doesn't show | 00:28 |
| terettes15 | can anyone help me please | 00:28 |
| katoda | I think it is something in config | 00:28 |
| Zorael | It's supposed to be named system-reboot.png | 00:28 |
| Zorael | katoda: so reinstall the package | 00:28 |
| katoda | terettes15: what happened | 00:28 |
| katoda | Zorael: I've done this | 00:28 |
| Zorael | mmkay, then make a symbolic link. :3 "ln -s //usr/share/icons/oxygen/64x64/actions/system-restart.png /usr/share/icons/oxygen/64x64/actions/system-reboot.png" | 00:29 |
| terettes15 | i dl this codecs and it opened up on wine now i cant close it out | 00:29 |
| togetic | Zorael: alright, so... any other use can login except for my own | 00:29 |
| togetic | s/use/user* | 00:29 |
| katoda | Zorael: I have kde-icons-oxygen from 4.2.4 | 00:29 |
| Zorael | Sorry; "ln -s /usr/share/icons/oxygen/64x64/actions/system-restart.png /usr/share/icons/oxygen/64x64/actions/system-reboot.png" | 00:29 |
| katoda | yap | 00:29 |
| Zorael | togetic: Yeah, so something wrong with the permissions of your home dir | 00:29 |
| katoda | terettes15: what codec? | 00:30 |
| togetic | so what i would like to know is how to, after creating a new user... transfer all my files to that user's home | 00:30 |
| togetic | brb | 00:30 |
| katoda | Zorael: karmic // jaunty? | 00:30 |
| Zorael | katoda: Jaunty | 00:30 |
| Zorael | with 4.3b2 from ppas | 00:30 |
| katoda | Zorael: what version of kde-icons-oxygen do you have? | 00:30 |
| terettes15 | its a avsvideo converter | 00:30 |
| Zorael | katoda: Regardless, yours is named system-restart, right? And it doesn't show for you. | 00:31 |
| katoda | I have 4.2.4, not 4.2.90 | 00:31 |
| Zorael | katoda: Mine is system-reboot, and shows. | 00:31 |
| Zorael | 4.2.85 | 00:31 |
| togetic | so, instead of creating a new user, maybe we can try figuring out what's wrong with the permissions | 00:31 |
| Zorael | togetic: can you create files in your home dir now? | 00:31 |
| togetic | Zorael: i can create files | 00:32 |
| terettes15 | to be precise its avs video converter6.2 | 00:32 |
| Zorael | togetic: can you navigate into directories? like, cd ~/.kde? | 00:32 |
| togetic | Zorael: yes | 00:33 |
| togetic | but again, my paths are screwed, and for each screen i have to "export PATH=/usr/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin" | 00:33 |
| Zorael | ah, right | 00:34 |
| Shadoze | Does anyone know if there a foss alterantive to the nvidia drivers? | 00:34 |
| togetic | Shadoze: yes, but for their drivers work better | 00:34 |
| togetic | unfortunately | 00:34 |
| togetic | -"for" | 00:35 |
| Zorael | togetic: You do have a PATH defined in /etc/environment, I assume? | 00:35 |
| katoda | Zorael: which kde ppa do You use | 00:35 |
| togetic | sure, and i have them set in .bashrc | 00:35 |
| Shadoze | In what way? Better 3d support ect..? | 00:35 |
| togetic | oh wait | 00:35 |
| togetic | nm | 00:35 |
| togetic | no i don't will have to do that | 00:36 |
| togetic | anywho, so that's resolved | 00:36 |
| togetic | now... user permissions | 00:36 |
| Zorael | well, my .bashrc doesn't have any PATH definitions, either | 00:36 |
| togetic | btw, i can't think you enough for taking the time to help me Zorael | 00:36 |
| katoda | Shadoze: what's wrong in binary nvidia drivers? | 00:36 |
| Zorael | I just inherit from /etc/environment | 00:36 |
| Zorael | (et al) | 00:36 |
| Zorael | :3 | 00:36 |
| togetic | i don't know why it's not inheriting them | 00:36 |
| * togetic may go for a good game of open arena after this one | 00:37 | |
| Zorael | katoda: I use a bunch, not really sure what's from which, heh | 00:37 |
| Shadoze | The less closed source blobs i have on my system the better, i was curious into the alteratives | 00:37 |
| Zorael | togetic: I imagine you can read files from your home dir, as well? I mean, cat ~/.kde/share/config/kdeglobals | 00:38 |
| togetic | Shadoze: the drawing of the graphics is much better all around w/ the nvidia drivers | 00:38 |
| Shadoze | Sadly i didn't buy the pc i'm using so i didn't get to choose it's hardware either :S | 00:38 |
| togetic | yup | 00:38 |
| togetic | Zorael ^ | 00:38 |
| Zorael | togetic: Can you write into /tmp? | 00:39 |
| katoda | Zorael: zw, I'll try to relog | 00:39 |
| togetic | Zorael: yes | 00:39 |
| terettes15 | i need to close something out but its not letting me closeitout | 00:39 |
| Zorael | I'd try renaming .kde to .kde-backup, and let kdm recreate its settings. | 00:39 |
| togetic | alright | 00:40 |
| Shadoze | Hmm, that's sad to hear :( | 00:40 |
| Zorael | togetic: If it works, then you at least have a DE running | 00:40 |
| Zorael | I mean KDE recreate its settings* | 00:40 |
| katoda | Zorael: I have my icon back :) | 00:41 |
| * katoda thanks Zorael for his help :) | 00:41 | |
| Zorael | katoda: There you go :3 | 00:41 |
| togetic | Zorael: i did that and it still went back to the login screen | 00:41 |
| Zorael | togetic: So you get to the login screen, log in, and then it returns you back to it? | 00:42 |
| togetic | right | 00:42 |
| Zorael | and this is with .kde renamed? | 00:42 |
| togetic | right, Zorael | 00:42 |
| terettes15 | nevermind i got it | 00:43 |
| LoreCaster_Nappi | is anyone able to help me figure out how to run a canon imageCLASS d760 printer in linux (even with base-functionality), with no linux-drivers built for the device? | 00:43 |
| togetic | there is.. | 00:43 |
| togetic | ~/.kd4 | 00:43 |
| togetic | ~/.kde4 | 00:43 |
| togetic | i should rename that | 00:43 |
| === LoreCaster_Nappi is now known as LoreCaster | ||
| Zorael | togetic: which release are you running? | 00:43 |
| togetic | same results | 00:43 |
| togetic | hmm, lsb_release says 'no lsb modules available' | 00:44 |
| togetic | jaunty | 00:44 |
| togetic | i upgraded about 2 weeks ago | 00:44 |
| katoda | LoreCaster_Nappi: won't be possible | 00:45 |
| togetic | does kdm have a log? | 00:45 |
| Zorael | togetic: /var/log/kdm.log | 00:45 |
| katoda | LoreCaster: there is no info about such printer in openprinting.org, what means it doesn't work | 00:45 |
| Zorael | togetic: and Xorg.0.log | 00:45 |
| togetic | right, i had found it | 00:45 |
| togetic | nothing there so far | 00:46 |
| Zorael | togetic: well, something is making it crash or otherwise log out. *I* would try to migrate your settings over to a new user, since you said that only your user seems borked somehow | 00:46 |
| togetic | right | 00:47 |
| togetic | but would i just do cp -r ~/.kde* /home/newuser | 00:47 |
| Zorael | togetic: starting by copying the whole .kde folder | 00:47 |
| togetic | after creating it | 00:47 |
| togetic | i'll try that | 00:47 |
| Zorael | togetic: cp -rv /home/olduser/.kde /home/newuser | 00:47 |
| Zorael | togetic: add the v to get it to be verbose and show you that it's actually doing stuff | 00:48 |
| Zorael | and | 00:48 |
| Zorael | you'll need to change ownership after that | 00:48 |
| Zorael | togetic: sudo chown newuser:group /home/newuser/.kde -rv | 00:48 |
| Zorael | sorry; -Rv | 00:48 |
| togetic | chown invalid option --r | 00:51 |
| togetic | invalid option -- 'r' | 00:51 |
| togetic | ** | 00:51 |
| togetic | it doesn't understand -r | 00:51 |
| togetic | Zorael ^ | 00:52 |
| Zorael | make it capital R, so -Rv | 00:52 |
| togetic | ah, too late | 00:53 |
| togetic | i already did 'sudo mv ~/.kde* /home/newuser' | 00:54 |
| togetic | guess i need to change the permissions so that the new user can access the files... | 00:54 |
| Zorael | togetic: Well, works too, though you won't have a backup | 00:54 |
| Zorael | togetic: yeah, sudo chown newuser:group /home/newuser/.kde -Rv | 00:54 |
| togetic | done | 00:56 |
| togetic | now i need to add the new user to the sudoers | 00:56 |

| togetic | carolija: oh, okay, make a backup if you are inclined to do so because you are about wipe your disk, then do sudo fdisk /dev/<yourhdd>, use 'd' to delete any partitions you have on the drive, then do w and hit enter through all the prompts to write to the entire hdd, not sure if you are wanting to boot from the partition, but if you are, you will need to make it bootable in fdisk as well, write your changes using "w" and quit, then you do mkfs.ext3 | 01:00 |
| togetic | gracias Zorael | 01:01 |
| carolija | togetic, Okay ill do that | 01:02 |
| carolija | thank you, so it's not so easy | 01:02 |

| carolija | i must ? | 01:06 |
| carolija | there is no other way to put the movies and music on same safe place ? | 01:06 |
| carolija | because there is a lot :| | 01:06 |
| Serpardum | you can copy them | 01:06 |
| Serpardum | move them | 01:06 |
| carolija | where ? | 01:06 |
| Serpardum | How many partiions do you hav? | 01:06 |
| Serpardum | *partiions | 01:07 |
| Serpardum | grrr. partitions | 01:07 |
| carolija | Just Volume (ext3) | 01:07 |
| Serpardum | so what is this little here little there you were talking about? | 01:07 |
| carolija | and wan i click on it he ask for password | 01:07 |
| Serpardum | different folders? | 01:07 |
| carolija | i hate that one too lol | 01:08 |
| carolija | yes | 01:08 |
| carolija | diferent folders | 01:08 |
| Zorael | togetic: I'm off, good luck. | 01:08 |
| Serpardum | Oh, then don't partition | 01:08 |
| carolija | they are like same, but diferent data is in it | 01:08 |
| Serpardum | yes. folders keep data seperate, easier to find | 01:08 |
| carolija | for example if I made into /home/ dir movies | 01:08 |
| Serpardum | music goes in like /user/me/music etc.. | 01:08 |
| Serpardum | right | 01:08 |
| Serpardum | those are called "folders" | 01:08 |
| Serpardum | Now, what is the difficulty you are having with your folders? | 01:09 |
| carolija | i will see the /home/movies/ into Volume (etc3) also but without movies , just the folder | 01:09 |
| Serpardum | mkdir just maks the directory | 01:09 |
| Serpardum | then you have to copy or move the files | 01:09 |
| Serpardum | mv soemfolder/* /home/movies/ | 01:09 |
| Serpardum | that will move them | 01:09 |
| Serpardum | copy woudl be: cp somefolder/* /home/movies | 01:10 |
| Serpardum | sometimes it's better to copy and delete and then move | 01:10 |
| Serpardum | er, than move | 01:10 |
| carolija | ok | 01:10 |
| Serpardum | wow, I just can't talk today | 01:10 |
| carolija | the main problem is that i want all the space to be in one place i don't need little bit in here and little bit in there | 01:11 |
| carolija | what i told you about mkdir | 01:11 |
| carolija | that happening in my deafault /home/ and i see the same folder in other HDD but with no files in it | 01:12 |
| carolija | so i don't need that other HDD to be separated | 01:12 |
| togetic | Zorael: so after doing sudo mv ~/.* /home/newuser and then doing sudo chown newuser:newuser /home/newuser/.* -Rv i have the same problem of logging into that user using kdm | 01:13 |
| carolija | i'd jkust like to use all space in /home/ directories | 01:13 |
| carolija | if you understand me now ? | 01:13 |

| tomsdale | how can I override a dns entry for my browser? The /etc/hosts don't work. | 01:46 |
| Telengard | tomsdale : Can you 'ping localhost' ? | 01:48 |
| tomsdale | Telengard: thx for help. I've been on this for 3 days now. Yes I can ping localhost. responds with 127.0.0.1 | 01:49 |
| tomsdale | I can also ping the hostname I put in the /etc/hosts but all kde apps seem to just ignore it. | 01:49 |
| Telengard | Then /etc/hosts must be working, because that is where 'localhost' is defined. | 01:49 |
| Telengard | when you ping the manually entered hostnames do you get responses from the expected IP addys? | 01:50 |
| tomsdale | yes, I just added a bogus name behind IP and it responds also. Everything seems fine with the base system, just not the desktop apps. | 01:51 |
| Telengard | Which apps are not behaving as expected? What are you inputting? | 01:52 |
| tomsdale | background is that I need to recover a hacked website adminpanel which has been blacklisted. But I can't access a vhost by it's IP address. It needs the domain name to respond. | 01:52 |
| tomsdale | with blacklisted I mean it has been marked by google and removed from all DNS server I know. | 01:53 |

| tomsdale | vivek: check the /etc/init.d/Xorg.1.log for clues what happens on logoung | 02:05 |
| vivek | there's no file named Xorg.1.log in /etc/init.d | 02:12 |
| vivek | do i need to enable logging somewhere? | 02:13 |
| vivek | found it in /var/log/ | 02:14 |
| nikitis | So how do i go to init 3? | 02:20 |
| tomsdale | vivek: sorry - I meant /var/log | 02:26 |
| tomsdale | vivek: you have an intel card? | 02:27 |
| tomsdale | There were problems with the current intel driver but there is supposed to be a driver update soon. I had problems on NVidia as well but rolled back a version and since then it'S stable | 02:28 |
| vivek | yes | 02:28 |
| tomsdale | TBH I don't know how drivers work in intel land. I thought they were included in Xorg | 02:31 |
| tomsdale | I think I read there was some sort of update on the way which is supposed to fix a lot of intel issues. | 02:34 |
| vivek_ap | hopefully that fixes it! thanks! | 02:36 |
| Zorix | Where can I get a newer build of Kopete for Kubuntu 9.04? The msn support is real bad and I would like to try newer code | 02:39 |

| t3rminat0r | guys, in orfer for a script to be bootable | 02:43 |
| t3rminat0r | it should be at the /etc/init.d/ | 02:43 |
| t3rminat0r | only? | 02:43 |
| tomsdale | Zorix: did they do it again. msn seems to have to change their protocol everytime. | 02:43 |
| Zorix | tomsdale, well its just that certain people can't message me it only shows they are typing and never shows up on my screen..made me believe for about 2 months that certain people were ignoring me | 02:44 |
| Zorix | i read somewhere that wlm support was rather poor | 02:45 |

| pulaski | Hello, I'm also on the kde channel but I can't get a response. I'm running jaunty and kde4. I've removed the kicker panel along the bottom of the desktop in error but panel help does not offer a clue how to restore it. Can anyone offer any suggestionS? eg where in help to look for something like this or better yet has anyone had to do this before? | 03:13 |
| Zorix | its a plasma widget | 03:13 |
| Serpardum | right click, add widget | 03:15 |
| oobe | simple work around mv ~/.kde ~/.kde.old the restart the desktop | 03:15 |
| Serpardum | er, add panel then add widets to it? one of those | 03:15 |
| Zorix | you lose all settings that way oobe | 03:16 |
| oobe | yeah i know | 03:16 |
| Serpardum | oooh, I have a ~/.kde/Autostart? cool | 03:16 |
| Zorix | pulaski, if you dont have the panel, right click on desktop and add panel, then right click on panel and add widget to add all the widgets back if necessary | 03:17 |
| pulaski | Zorix: Thanks for responding. I have a panel to which I can applets but I can' put applications on it. I understand icons to run applications can only appear on the "Kicker" panel. I need to make the panel behave like the Kicker panel. | 03:21 |
| Zorix | right click on application and select add to panel | 03:25 |
| halberd | could someone do me a favor? please open konsole, start a screen session, open emacs -nw, and press ctrl-left | 03:32 |
| halberd | does it output funny characters? | 03:32 |
| pulaski | Zorix: Thanks I've solved my problem. It seems it the panel appears on the bottom portion of the desktop that seems to designae it as the "Kicker" panel. This must be true becaues I can add and remove applications as well as applets from it. | 03:35 |
| Serpardum | no, ikt tells me emacs is not installed :D | 03:35 |
| Serpardum | let me install emacs | 03:36 |
| pulaski | Problem solve. Goodnight for now. | 03:36 |
| Serpardum | I run emacs -nw I press ctrl-left arrow and it just jumps to top/left corner | 03:38 |
| Serpardum | it goes to the start of hte previous word | 03:38 |
| Serpardum | although I never loaded a file | 03:38 |
| Serpardum | nwo I have to remember how to exit emacs :/ | 03:39 |
| Serpardum | got it | 03:39 |
| halberd | hmm | 03:40 |
| halberd | that's not the problem I'm having | 03:40 |
| halberd | when I do it, it outputs the text "5D" | 03:41 |
| Serpardum | *shrug* | 03:41 |
| Serpardum | sounds like it's screwed up for you | 03:41 |
| halberd | yes but I want to fix it | 03:41 |
| Serpardum | why don't you uninstall emacs and resinstall it? | 03:41 |
| halberd | I think the problem is screen | 03:41 |
| halberd | because it doesn't happen when emacs is run outside of a screen session | 03:41 |
| Serpardum | define "screen session"? | 03:42 |
| halberd | ah... before you enter emacs in the konsole, do the command "screen" | 03:42 |
| Serpardum | I don't know what a screen session is so maybe I didn't do it | 03:42 |
| halberd | then type emacs -nw | 03:43 |
| Serpardum | now ctrl-left does nothing for me | 03:43 |
| halberd | but you don't get the 5D? | 03:43 |
| Serpardum | 5D where? | 03:44 |
| halberd | entered into the emacs window | 03:44 |
| Serpardum | I never loaded a file | 03:44 |
| Serpardum | oh, wait ^5d? | 03:44 |
| nikitis | what all do i need to do to get flash working with konquerer? I downloaded and ran flashplugin-installer. Do i need to turn on javascript? | 03:44 |
| Serpardum | is it ^5D or soemthing | 03:44 |
| halberd | on mine it's just 5D | 03:44 |
| halberd | with no caret | 03:44 |
| Serpardum | I think that screen mode isn't handeling the ctrl-left, so it's accepted as character scan codes | 03:44 |
| Serpardum | which happen to be 5D | 03:45 |
| Serpardum | since I don't have any editing going on, I dont see them, emacs ignore them | 03:45 |
| halberd | you'd be in a scratch buffer | 03:45 |
| halberd | so if it was producing them you would see them | 03:45 |
| Serpardum | I have the help text on line | 03:45 |
| Serpardum | "Welcome to GNU Emacs..." etc.. | 03:45 |
| halberd | well try ctrl-x b, then type *scratch* | 03:46 |
| Serpardum | yep, now I get the 5D | 03:46 |
| Serpardum | like I said, in screen mode emacs obviously isn't accepting ctrl-left arrow as a command, so it accepts them as characters. | 03:46 |
| Serpardum | ctrl-up would do it too | 03:47 |
| halberd | yeah all the arrow keys | 03:47 |
| Serpardum | those numbers are the scan codes being interpreted as characters | 03:47 |
| Serpardum | Or hex or soemthing | 03:47 |
| Serpardum | since emacs normally handles them it doesn't mask them | 03:47 |
| Serpardum | So the moral of the story is: don't hit ctrl-left in emacs in screen mode ^^ | 03:48 |
| halberd | well, it's a problem for me because that's a navigation command I want | 03:48 |
| Serpardum | you might have to do somethign like enter vt100 mode or something | 03:48 |
| halberd | looking in the screen manual it says that ctrl-up, for example, is translated to \033[A | 03:49 |
| halberd | and ctrl-left to \033[D, and so on | 03:49 |
| halberd | er i mean just left, and up | 03:49 |
| halberd | not ctrl-left or ctrl-up | 03:49 |
| Serpardum | \033 is escape. | 03:49 |
| Serpardum | those are ANSI codes | 03:49 |
| Serpardum | <esc>[A | 03:49 |
| Serpardum | what does -nw mean anyway? | 03:50 |
| halberd | it means no window, ie no graphical mode | 03:50 |
| halberd | any idea what I might do to fix this? | 03:51 |
| Serpardum | try google "emacs screen ctrl-left not working" | 03:51 |
| halberd | it's odd that it doesn't output 5D or whatever if I do it from a bash prompt | 03:53 |
| halberd | or from in nano | 03:54 |
| Serpardum | Here you go: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bash/+bug/89235 | 03:55 |

| e-jat | Serpardum: im reinstalling the kdelib5-dev .. | 04:07 |
| e-jat | hope it will help | 04:08 |
| halberd | Serpardum: hmm this is a similar problem but I don't think it's exactly the same | 04:08 |
| Serpardum | did you try their solutions? | 04:08 |
| robotgeek | e-jat: try reinstalling the phonon libraries, and the dev packages | 04:08 |
| e-jat | robotgeek: ok .. thanks .. reinstalling it .. | 04:08 |
| BluesKaj | gonna be a while , ForgeAus..google is looking for lotsa feedback from open source devs before giving us anymore | 04:08 |
| robotgeek | e-jat: not sure if it will work, but it is worth a shot. maybe something funky happened during the first install | 04:09 |
| halberd | yes Serpardum | 04:09 |
| halberd | the export INPUTRC=/etc/inputrc doesn't make a difference | 04:09 |
| halberd | my problem is not precisely the same, it has to do with the combination of emacs + screen | 04:10 |
| halberd | it's not bash or readline | 04:10 |
| halberd | I don't think emacs uses readline | 04:10 |
| ForgeAus | BluesKaj, unfortunately I'm not an opensource dev.... | 04:11 |
| e-jat | robotgeek: ill try .. thanks | 04:11 |
| halberd | maybe it's an emacs configuration thing | 04:11 |
| ForgeAus | (it looks as if they've gone GTK+ too which is bad) | 04:12 |
| halberd | because I'm in irssi now and I don't have the problem they described | 04:12 |
| ForgeAus | I'm starting to think linux is suffering by not having a single basic widgetset :(... | 04:12 |
| robotgeek | ForgeAus: choice is good :) | 04:13 |
| ForgeAus | robotgeek I agree... for the most part, at least generally... | 04:13 |

| Serpardum | apt-cache search vmware doesnt' come back with vmware. can we use it? | 04:47 |
| ForgeAus | you can... | 04:49 |
| ForgeAus | you might need to download it from vmware's site itself | 04:49 |
| Serpardum | yeah, now I remember, only vmware player is free | 04:49 |
| ForgeAus | go to #vmware for more information, I think its just not a part of Ubuntu repositories | 04:49 |
| ForgeAus | (serp not even sure the player is in the repos anymore) | 04:49 |
| ForgeAus | there are free versions of vmware however it isn't opensource afaik... (maybe the player is I don't know) | 04:50 |
| ForgeAus | I know for vmware server itself you can get a free version, however you need to register | 04:50 |
| digdeep | may try vritual box | 04:50 |
| ForgeAus | yeah virtualbox is another option that is free | 04:50 |
| Serpardum | I have virtualbox running in vista (that's what I'm running kubuntu in) | 04:51 |
| ForgeAus | (although since sun took that over I didn't really like virtualbox) | 04:51 |
| Serpardum | I"m thing is tryign to get a native video driver going for some vm I can run in linux | 04:51 |
| ForgeAus | lol Serp, you want to run an os inside an os inside an os inside an os? | 04:51 |
| Serpardum | no, just an os inside an os inside an os | 04:51 |
| ForgeAus | lol | 04:51 |
| Serpardum | The reason is when I run my OS in virtualbox, virtualbox locks up eating up 50% of my cpu and wont exit until I reboot | 04:52 |
| ForgeAus | hmmm I should try running something like Amstrad CPC inside a MacOS inside Win98 inside Linux inside WinXP inside MacOSX ... or something | 04:52 |
| ForgeAus | ouch | 04:53 |
| digdeep | why? | 04:53 |
| ForgeAus | virtualbox should eat up a chunk of ram, not sure about cpu thats possible... but I don't like it not exiting... | 04:53 |
| ForgeAus | I think to exit you have to first stop the virtual machine | 04:53 |
| ForgeAus | (ie shutdown the guest OS to exit virtualbox) | 04:53 |
| ForgeAus | virtual machines don't tend to like quitting while the guest is still running | 04:54 |
| Serpardum | yeah, but I think I'm not shutting down my os properly and virtualbox doesn't like that | 04:54 |
| Serpardum | qemu doesn't care | 04:54 |
| Serpardum | I just do a "hlt" right now | 04:55 |
| ForgeAus | why is there so many different packages for sun's virtualbox, one for different kernel versions, etc... :( | 04:55 |
| ForgeAus | Qemu is better imho, only you need to have some understand to be able to use it... for the most part... | 04:56 |
| ForgeAus | if your in MacOSX ever I recommend using VMware Fusion (only its commercial) in Unity mode... | 04:56 |

| tomsdale | uuups - I just accidently upgraded to KDE 4.3 beta ... | 05:20 |
| Serpardum | wtf, why does konqueror display a .rar file intead of asking me to save it/ | 05:22 |
| tomsdale | Konqueror seems not to be getting much love these days. | 05:24 |
| Serpardum | now konqueror crashed | 05:25 |
| tomsdale | what do you have under Settings file management - File associations. search for rar on the left | 05:27 |
| tomsdale | I don't use Konqueror anymore - I think Dolphin is better for file management. But never got deep into Konqueror either. | 05:28 |
| nikitis | my only issue with conquerer is it's speed. could use some speed improvements | 05:29 |
| nikitis | konq* | 05:29 |
| tomsdale | I think it's single threaded which weights on it's performance. | 05:29 |
| Serpardum | I find no rar in associations | 05:30 |
| tomsdale | try creating one and associate it with ark. | 05:30 |
| Serpardum | okay, I searced for rar and I found x-rar, x-shared-libary-la, x-shardlib, x-psflib | 05:30 |
| tomsdale | yeah - that's it. | 05:31 |
| tomsdale | should have ark as application to open it with. | 05:31 |
| DarkriftX | i installed google chrome, and on the install page it says that it installs the "repos" so that it can update itself. I assumed it meant apt repos but I dont see anything that looks like them in adept under the 3rd party software tab. anyone know where I would find them? | 05:31 |
| Serpardum | and x-rar is associated with ark | 05:31 |
| DarkriftX | kubuntu 8.04 btw | 05:31 |
| DarkriftX | "Installing Google Chrome will add the Google repository so your system will automatically keep Chrome up to date. (If you don't want Google's repository, do "sudo touch /etc/defaults/google-chrome" before installing the package.) " | 05:33 |
| tomsdale | Serpardum: If I do this with a .rar file it brings up a dialog and asks me to open it with Ark. | 05:33 |
| tomsdale | I just upgraded accidentally to Kde 4.3 beta though as well. but here it seems to behave | 05:34 |
| tomsdale | actually there are some nice details in 4.3 . Nothing mind blowing so far but looks like some usability improvements. | 05:36 |
| DarkriftX | if I am on kubuntu 8.04 would "deb http://dl.google.com/linux/deb/ stable main" work or should i change "stable" to "hardy" to match the rest of mine? | 05:40 |
| oobe | Possibly niether | 05:41 |
| DarkriftX | it said this requires ubuntu 8.04 or later so it should work | 05:42 |
| DarkriftX | i just dont know enough about the repo config | 05:42 |
| DarkriftX | i opened the install script, found the key and installed that from adept, but not sure how the repo line should look | 05:43 |
| oobe | stable is debian like | 05:43 |
| oobe | but that might work | 05:43 |
| DarkriftX | would that work though? | 05:43 |
| DarkriftX | oh | 05:43 |
| oobe | http://www.google.com/linuxrepositories/apt.html | 05:45 |
| tomsdale | what is a good dock mac OSX style in KDE? Wanna give it a try | 05:45 |
| DarkriftX | W: Failed to fetch http://dl.google.com/linux/deb/dists/hardy/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz 404 Not Found [IP: 74.125.95.93 80] | 05:47 |
| tomsdale | DarkriftX: it's simple, the url does't exist. try the debian .deb if you have to have the version or search on getdeb | 05:48 |
| DarkriftX | i installed it via the .deb but it gets updates almost daily | 05:49 |
| tomsdale | http://www.getdeb.net/ | 05:49 |
| DarkriftX | for soem reason instaling hte .deb didnt seem to add the repos like it said it would | 05:49 |
| DarkriftX | i am trying to fix that | 05:49 |
| tomsdale | you probably have the PPA of development branch. | 05:49 |
| DarkriftX | nice, think i got it | 05:50 |
| DarkriftX | picasa is installing now, so i think so | 05:50 |
| tomsdale | getdeb allows you to download binaries without having to add additional repositories | 05:50 |
| DarkriftX | i want the repos though. i want adept to tell me if there is an update daily | 05:51 |
| ForgeAus | I don't understand, why isn't adept showing me kde3 modules, (Apt-get recognises them but adept doesn't??) | 05:52 |
| DarkriftX | thanks oobe and tomsdale | 05:54 |
| DarkriftX | its working and there are already updates from a few hours ago | 05:54 |

| bazhang | ubuntu__, you just want to install mplayer ? | 10:26 |
| ubuntu__ | no i want to get avi files to play | 10:29 |
| bazhang | ubuntu__, did you install the kubuntu-restricted-extras package yet | 10:29 |
| ubuntu__ | not sure | 10:30 |
| ubuntu__ | i think i did | 10:30 |
| bazhang | you may also wish to grab the w32codecs from medibuntu.org | 10:30 |
| shanipribadi | ubuntu__: what kind of avi files are they? | 10:30 |
| ubuntu__ | how do i do that | 10:31 |
| shanipribadi | bazhang: w32codecs is only for mplayer | 10:31 |
| bazhang | with the -extras package, and the w32codecs, most everything will play | 10:31 |
| shanipribadi | bazhang: he needs to install mplayer first right? | 10:31 |
| ubuntu__ | tv shows shanipribadi | 10:31 |
| shanipribadi | ubuntu__: im sorry, what i mean is what format is it? divx? xvid? | 10:31 |
| ubuntu__ | yeah | 10:32 |
| bazhang | shanipribadi, just installing kubuntu-restricted-extras and w32codecs did it for me | 10:32 |
| shanipribadi | ubuntu__: i only installed kubuntu-restricted-extras and it runs those videos fine. | 10:32 |
| bazhang | ubuntu__, sudo apt-get install kubuntu-restricted-extras from the konsole | 10:32 |

| shanipribadi | ubuntu__: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-restricted-extras | 10:33 |
| ubuntu__ | it cant find the package | 10:34 |
| shanipribadi | ubuntu__: if it still does not work, then perhaps you have to install w32codecs (i already have them cos im using mplayer for transcoding, perhaps that is why many formats work.) | 10:34 |

| e-jat | how about .3gp ? can play but without sound :( | 10:35 |

| ubuntu__ | i havent installed it on the pc | 10:36 |
| ubuntu__ | just running it of the cd | 10:36 |
| shanipribadi | e - jat: 3gp is a bit problem, the easiest fix is installing mplayer, google for "medibuntu" and follow the gudes | 10:36 |
| Mamarok | ubuntu__: you will have to install it and activate the repos, there is not enough space on the CD for everything | 10:36 |
| shanipribadi | ubuntu__: i see, you need to enable the extra repository first, open System Settings --> Add and Remove Software --> Settings --> Edit Software Sources | 10:37 |
| shanipribadi | ubuntu__: but i think youll need to install first | 10:37 |
| shanipribadi | ubuntu__: because im not sure you can install things if youre running from LiveCD | 10:37 |
| makdaknife | shanipribadi: afaik you can install things... but they will only be installed temporarily until you reboot | 10:39 |
| shanipribadi | makdaknife: then it's a waste of bandwidth and time ^_^, better instaling first to HD | 10:39 |
| ubuntu__ | shanipribadi i went to the edit souces screen what do i change in there ? | 10:40 |
| makdaknife | shanipribadi: indeedy... I guess there are a few times that you might need to do this without an install... but to play a video... no... | 10:41 |
| shanipribadi | ubuntu__: you need to check the Software restricted by copyright or legal issues (Multiverse), then you can try instaling kubuntu-restricted-extras, but thing is, if youre running from LiveCD, you'll have to do it after every time you shutdown the computer | 10:41 |
| bazhang | ubuntu__, you are trying to do this on a live cd? ie not an install? | 10:42 |
| Mamarok | bazhang: read above... | 10:43 |
| ubuntu__ | yeah of a live cd | 10:43 |
| shanipribadi | bazhang: sorry, i was wrong, apparently xine uses w32codecs too. if he's going to watch avi's then he needs those codecs too. | 10:43 |
| ubuntu__ | guess im gonna have to install kubuntu | 10:43 |
| shanipribadi | ubuntu__: here's guide for w32codecs from medibuntu https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu | 10:44 |
| ubuntu__ | just wanted to play around with it before i installed it | 10:44 |
| bazhang | ubuntu__, not much point as a restart of live cd will erase everything; best to install first then activate the appropriate repos | 10:44 |
| shanipribadi | ubuntu__: suggestion from me, if youre going to install it anyway, then it's better to install first, so you dont need to go throught the hassle twice. | 10:44 |
| ubuntu__ | yeah true shani | 10:45 |
| ubuntu__ | didnt think it would be so complicated to install codecs | 10:46 |
| kraves | any idea whats the easiest way to remove kde4.3 beta and get back to 4.2.4? :p | 10:46 |
| ubuntu__ | wish they had them installed by default | 10:46 |
| shanipribadi | ubuntu__: it had to do with patents, canonical cant do it legally. so that's why we have to do it ourselves | 10:46 |
| shanipribadi | kraves: try checking the forum ,i remember someone made a guide about it. but the basic steps were remove the kubuntu-backports ppa, and then force downgrade things | 10:47 |
| ubuntu__ | i read that linux mint has them installed by default how can they get away with it ? | 10:48 |
| kraves | already removed backports ppa, i'll check the forum, thanks :) | 10:48 |
| shanipribadi | ubuntu__: what im sure is that if canonical included those packages by default then their lawyers would panick ^_^ | 10:50 |
| shanipribadi | ubuntu__: anyway, kubuntu-restricted-extras is a metapackage for several packages, you might want to install only parts of it, just read the package description. You'll also need medibuntu too, especially for DVDs, there's alot of guide about this on ubuntuforums.org, and medibuntu.org | 10:53 |
| yao_ziyuan | update-notifier-kde sucks. use update-notifier. | 10:54 |
| valgaav | the issue here is things like dvdcss or w32codecs are illegal in the USA | 10:55 |
| valgaav | dvdcss also in France ;) | 10:55 |
| shanipribadi | why in France? does France still make it illegal for crypto things? | 10:55 |
| Mamarok | folks, this is getting offtopic, please take that discussion to #kubuntu-offtopic | 10:55 |
| ubuntu__ | thanks for all your help shani gonna install kubuntu now | 10:56 |
| shanipribadi | Mamarok: oh, right.. ok | 10:56 |
| dwidmann | kraves: you could probably remove the sources.list for the ppa, set the pin priority for main/updates/backports/security to be >1000, and then update and dist-upgrade. Downgrading like this is potentially risky though. | 10:56 |
| shanipribadi | dwidmann: what is pin priority? and how do i set it up? | 10:57 |
| dwidmann | shanipribadi: in /etc/apt/apt.conf or /etc/apt/preferences, I forget which | 10:57 |
| dwidmann | shanipribadi: yeah, it's /etc/apt/preferences, do man apt_preferences for a good overview of it | 10:58 |
| shanipribadi | dwidmann: okay.. ill check it out. | 10:58 |
| dwidmann | shanipribadi: and after you see what it's doing, what you'll need to do is something like "Package: *\n Pin: release jaunty\n Pin-Priority 1001\n\n Package: *\n Pin: release jaunty-security\n Pin-Priority: 1001" and so on, you'll see. | 11:01 |
| shanipribadi | dwidmann: so the packages from jaunty-updates have a higher priority than kubuntu-backports right? | 11:05 |
| shanipribadi | dwidmann: might better to use kubuntu-updates ppa, it's got kde 4.2.4 | 11:05 |
| dwidmann | shanipribadi: dvdcss was ruled illegal in the us because I think it was using keys that were hacked out of some software or such. Worked very well, but you could see where that might be illegal. libdvdcss2 works differently and hasn't been taken to court, so its real legal state is unknown. (I think it's more of a brute force attack against the keys, which is sane only because the encryption is really weak) | 11:06 |
| dwidmann | shanipribadi: well, basically you want everything other than the ppa with 4.3b to be pinned >1000, so it can force downgrade. I don't know which "release" the ppa for 4.3b is, and I also don't know whether you should be using origin instead in that case. I know what I mentioned above should work though ... that would bring you back down to 4.2.3 though. | 11:07 |
| dwidmann | shanipribadi: (I really don't downgrade often ... usually when I'm trying something new/experimental I'll be compiling from source, just in case the packages give me trouble enough that I would have to downgrade, if you know what I mean) | 11:08 |

| Mamarok | dROg: behave! | 11:16 |
| dwidmann | shanipribadi: oh, with regards to pin-priority, you might think you'd want different priorities for release, updates, security, backports, but not really, you wouldn't. If you set them all the same it'll be determined normally (ie: by version) | 11:16 |
| dROg | sorry, i'm using konversation :) and when i transmit a mass message on another network it transmits globally :) | 11:16 |

| sheytan_ | Hi all, there's a new nvidia driver released. Do kubuntu updates drivers automaticaly? There's no new drivers on the updates list and in the 'hardware drivers' module. Maybe should i upgrade it by hand? | 11:32 |
| dwidmann | Any supported one, anyway | 11:32 |
| dwidmann | Mamarok: like for images you could have columns for the dimensions or whatnot, or for mp3/ogg files artist/album/etc columns ... sorting by those and whatnot ... was very handy. | 11:32 |
| naught101 | dwidmann: exactly - I'm trying to compare images in two separate folders.. | 11:34 |
| Mamarok | dwidmann: hm, you are right, I can add comments and tags, but those do not show | 11:35 |

| shanipribadi | dwidmann: i didn't get it, luckily. only find out yesterday when there's many people asking how to downgrade | 11:42 |
| dwidmann | shanipribadi: I'll take that as my cue not to upgrade right now | 11:42 |
| Mamarok | shanipribadi: well, it's never a good idea to rush into a beta upgrade... there are 300+ packages which can take days to co mplete a PPA | 11:42 |
| sheytan_ | so, nobody know how to upgrade these drivers? | 11:43 |
| shanipribadi | dwidmann: it's nice though that there is a way to downgrade with the priority thingie. | 11:43 |
| shanipribadi | does ubuntu automatically update binary drivers? | 11:43 |

| rmrfslash | maniel: you need to add the karmic repos to your sources list | 14:03 |
| shanipribadi | declanpwalsh: im not sure. perhaps that's why alsamixer does not work for you, because it does not know the right device. but since you were saying that there is a faint sound, then the sound Is working, but there's some wrong config somewhere | 14:03 |

| ForgeAus | nikitis maybe ask in #KDE ?? | 14:12 |
| ForgeAus | just a thought... | 14:12 |
| drurew | tzanger: you have to stop your wlan activity , set the card into adhoc mode then start wlan again | 14:13 |
| tzanger | drurew: the card is not in use | 14:13 |
| tzanger | drurew: if I click on the networkmanager systray icon I can see it wants to connect to an available AP, but the empty adhoc network I created is not there | 14:14 |
| drurew | ifconfig will tell you :terminal :sudo ifconfig wlan(#) stop / start | 14:14 |
| tzanger | you mean iwconfig? ifconfig doesn't know anything about wireless | 14:15 |
| tzanger | drurew: and ifconfig/iwconfig do not accept stop/start | 14:15 |
| drurew | tzanger: ifconfig to see which card you would like to put into which mode ifconfig (card) down , change your settings (adhoc) and restart the card with : ifconfig (card) up | 14:18 |
| tzanger | drurew: ahh okay, I'll give that a shot. then networkmanager will let me join an ad-hoc network? | 14:19 |
| drurew | tzanger: i thought you wanted to create an adhoc network | 14:19 |
| tzanger | drurew: yes | 14:19 |
| tzanger | drurew: as I said, networkmanager lets me set it up, but I cannot select that network in the list | 14:19 |

| Mamarok | nikitis: no, why? you are not going to build a deb file :) | 15:16 |
| nikitis | how do I check | 15:17 |
| tomsdale | sourcemaker: from what I can gather there are some quirks but it's relatively stable. I had 1 Kwin crash and I had to redo my widget list - it reverted back to default once I installed the beta. | 15:17 |
| Mamarok | nikitis: aptitude show kwin | 15:17 |
| Alcapond | Mamarok: the problem is that KUbuntu does not have a seasme2 backend - and without this nepomuk is basically useless :( | 15:18 |
| Mamarok | sourcemaker: if you can handle ocasional dependency issues... | 15:18 |
| Mamarok | Alcapond: wait, I'll check what I installed | 15:18 |

| Mamarok | Alcapond: make sure you have the soprano-backend-sesame installed | 15:19 |
| Mamarok | nikitis: well, yes, is it installed also? | 15:20 |
| tehboriz | what's so good about the new kde? | 15:20 |
| Mamarok | tehboriz: works better, more options tha previousley | 15:20 |
| _nix_ | tehboriz: solid and phono | 15:20 |
| tomsdale | sourcemaker: If you are eager and can live with the occasional crash and fix problems yourself give it a try. On the other hand there is nothing mind boggeling so far I have found in the release, more usability improvements so you might as well wait for the official release. | 15:20 |
| Alcapond | Mamarok: well I did install that package - and I did a reboot afterwards | 15:20 |
| _nix_ | tehboriz: phonon* | 15:20 |
| Mamarok | tehboriz: and KDE 4 is work in progress, so you get new stuff on every update | 15:21 |
| Mamarok | tehboriz: but if you are not an experienced user, do not use the beta packages | 15:21 |
| tehboriz | i think i got kde 4, or whatever came with 9.04 | 15:21 |
| Mamarok | Alcapond: in systemsettings -Advanced Tab - Desktop search, enabled strigi? | 15:21 |
| tehboriz | i am an inexperienced user. | 15:21 |
| nikitis | Mamarok: Says kde-window-manager is installed | 15:21 |
| Mamarok | tehboriz: that is 4.2.2 then | 15:21 |
| Mamarok | nikitis: how did you install Jaunty? | 15:22 |
| tehboriz | oh i also have a huge issue with the plasma networking widget... it always cuts off the wireless networks i'm looking for | 15:22 |
| nikitis | Mamarok: alternate text CD. I have a complicated LVM setup. I had to use it | 15:22 |
| Alcapond | Mamarok: it is enabled - this is where I get the message that "Strigi service failed to initialize..." | 15:22 |
| nikitis | Mamarok: I manually installed nvidia drivers. The latest | 15:22 |
| Mamarok | tehboriz: tha is another issue, you shoudl upgrade to KDE 4.2.4 then | 15:22 |
| Mamarok | nikitis: that might well be the problem... | 15:22 |
| tehboriz | so the .0.0.2 makes a big difference then huh? how do i upgrade | 15:23 |
| Mamarok | nikitis: what package manager do you use? | 15:23 |
| nikitis | Mamarok: i need them though... It fixes problems with xinerama | 15:23 |
| tomsdale | tehboriz: +1 for the networkmanager. I still have this in 4.3 beta. I wonder if there is still a setting somewhere in my home directory back from the alpha 5 days. | 15:23 |
| nikitis | apt-get | 15:23 |
| nikitis | Mamarok: i was getting GLX_BAD_Drawable errors with previous version of drivers, | 15:23 |
| Mamarok | nikitis: try synaptic, it shows you the dependencies much better | 15:23 |
| _nix_ | I'll have to add the ppa repositories to get kde 4.2.4? does it mean I'll be exposing myself to whatever fireworks goes on in ppa? | 15:24 |
| nikitis | Mamarok: what am I looking for? It shows the dependancies installed | 15:25 |
| Mamarok | _nix_: well, then don't and wait patiently for Karmic | 15:25 |
| Mamarok | nikitis: it will show you all the kde packages you might be missing | 15:26 |
| * Mamarok will have to go soon... | 15:26 | |
| _nix_ | Mamarok: its a bugfix release right? | 15:26 |
| Mamarok | _nix_: yes, and it's from a tested PPA made by the Kubuntu developers | 15:27 |
| Mamarok | _nix_: check the topic | 15:27 |
| nikitis | Mamarok: it's all installed as far as I can tell, but still no composite extensions. | 15:27 |
| Mamarok | nikitis: then I don't know, it might well be the Nvidia driver you installed from elsewhere | 15:27 |
| vorian | _nix_: yes, if you want unsupported packages - the ppa is the place to be | 15:27 |
| _nix_ | I was wondering if it'll eventually figure in the "usual" updates being a bugfix | 15:28 |
| vorian | 4.2.4 will find it's way to -updates in jaunty, it just takes time to make it there | 15:29 |
| _nix_ | vorian: ok, thanks. | 15:29 |
| vorian | no problemo | 15:29 |
| vorian | I have an Xorg/kwin question (sad I know) | 15:30 |
| vorian | Failed to activate desktop effects using the given configuration options. Settings will be reverted to their previous values. | 15:30 |
| vorian | Check your X configuration. You may also consider changing advanced options, especially changing the compositing type. | 15:30 |
| vorian | what's that about? | 15:30 |
| vorian | my card is more than capable of compositing, so I've really messed something up | 15:30 |
| Mamarok | vorian: what card? | 15:31 |
| vorian | it's a geeforce 8800 | 15:31 |
| vorian | http://machinecrusade.net/100_2694.JPG <- that's what it looks like | 15:32 |
| Mamarok | vorian: hm, don't know about Nvidia, but a few people seem to have problems, there is probably also a bug report in Launchpad about that | 15:32 |
| vorian | crap, it was just working too! | 15:32 |

| declanpwalsh | hi, I'm having trouble with a sata harddisk that doesn't let me write to it. Am i doing something wrong? I've plugged it in and rebooted. | 15:46 |
| tomsdale | Quintasan: exacly. Like in gnome by default. | 15:46 |
| Jack8899-2 | Quintasan: worked :) , is there a better tool then the system monitor which can kill processes? | 15:47 |
| Quintasan | tomsdale: a) right click on title bar and you should have Move to desktop (or something like that, using Polish) and pick where you want to have it | 15:47 |
| Quintasan | tomsdale: b) activate the Visual Effects in System Settings -> Desktop and press Meta(WinKey)+E and drag your window | 15:48 |
| tomsdale | Quintasan: I know this and I even have a shortcut set. But dragging would be nicer. | 15:48 |
| tomsdale | ah - that'S something new | 15:48 |
| Quintasan | Jack8899-2: Do you know about signals? | 15:49 |
| Jack8899-2 | Quintasan: what is it, a program? | 15:50 |
| Quintasan | Jack8899-2: the command I gave you kills the process without giving it chance to save documents etc. | 15:50 |
| Quintasan | Jack8899-2: hence SIGKILL | 15:50 |
| declanpwalsh | when i try to open the harddrive it seems to open but i can't write to it; says access denied: could not write to... | 15:51 |
| Mamarok | Alcapond: sorry, neglected you, will be back in some time only :( | 15:51 |
| * Mamarok goes to fetch her car | 15:51 | |
| Quintasan | Jack8899-2: you can try right-clicking on a process -> Send signal -> the position with (KILL) [sorry for no translation but I'm using polish lang atm] | 15:52 |
| Quintasan | Jack8899-2: in system monitor OFC' | 15:52 |
| declanpwalsh | anyone have any ideas? | 15:52 |
| nikitis | Okay, does KDE not allow 3d Desktop effects with Xinerama enabled? | 15:52 |

| reagleBRKLN | something happened to my kate (3.5.10) highlighting. I have the python file installed, and for a flash I can see it highlight, but then it show with no highlighting, any hints/clues or way to get debug info? | 23:53 |
| Zengol | Dragnslcr- Yeah, i just recieved the 9.04 in the mail. But i am not sre wether i want to chance losing what i have done so far. | 23:53 |
| Dragnslcr | What do you have installed now? | 23:54 |
| Zengol | Dragnslcr- I tried 9.04 awhile back and it had major problem's with just the desktop lagging out on me. | 23:54 |
| Zengol | Dragnslcr- I am running 8.10 | 23:54 |
| Dragnslcr | Yeah, that'd probably be the Intel graphics drivers | 23:54 |
| Zengol | Dragnslcr- The only problem i have with 8.10 is that i get kicked back to teh login screen upon resolution changes. | 23:54 |
| Zengol | Dragnslcr- I know it has to do with the advanced desktop effect's that run under OpenGL. | 23:55 |
| Zengol | Dragnslcr- I have switched it off before and it ran fine, i have also switched to Xrender ad it ran fine. | 23:55 |
| Dragnslcr | You might try checking the forums for more information about the Intel drivers, see if there's been any progress | 23:55 |
| Zengol | Dragnslcr- By my luck probably no luck at all. Even so. Last time i installed a driver manually i had to re-install Kubuntu completely. | 23:56 |
| Dragnslcr | Heh | 23:56 |
| Zengol | I have OpenBox, and Gnome installed here as backup's incase my KDE lock's itself in a resolution chage again. | 23:56 |
| Dragnslcr | The good thing is that since the Intel drivers are open, it shouldn't take quite as long for some developers to get it fixed up | 23:56 |
| Zengol | When i ran 8.04 i was able to do quite a few thing's, i could een play WoW at about 16-25 FPS. | 23:57 |
| Zengol | I ran 9.04 off of teh live CD last night and it didn't seem to show any sign's of the desktop lagout that it had in the beta. | 23:58 |
| Zengol | Bt i am still wary of actually installing it and losing all of my progress. | 23:58 |
| Zengol | I might delete my ms partition and try it. | 23:59 |
| Zengol | I need to re-format that partition anyway due to spyware, haha. | 23:59 |
