bravelCan I do a virus scan from the live cd and how?01:34
kaddibravel: do you want to scan your ubuntu partition from a live-cd or do you want to do a scan with a ubuntu live-cd?01:38
linuxguyHi I ned some help with getting Kate to work as root with ver 9.04 any helpues would be great please :)01:38
kaddilinuxguy: why do you want to run kate as root?01:38
kaddilinuxguy: from the commandline try "kdesudo kate"01:39
linuxguykaddi, so i can edit mt xorg.conf file.......i only know hpw to do that with kate from other distros01:39
kaddilinuxguy: kdesudo kate should do it :)01:40
bravelkaddi a fat32 partition before I I import those files to a windows box01:40
linuxguythaanks i was speklling kdesudo wrong............sil01:42
kaddibravel: you could do an onlinescan, I think kaspersky and panda offer online scans which will work with firefox, so you could run them from your browser, if you're looking for a one time scan. otherwise if you only have a couple of files to check you could upload them to virustotal.com or similar where they will be checked by multiple online scanners.01:42
linuxguyok thaanks I can do that and its ok, thanks, I am using a 1gb nvidia 9600 card and i was hoping to be able to add a 1290x1024 res to the xorg.conf file but its almost empty01:43
kaddibravel: if you want to install a antivirus: clamav seems to be in the ubuntu reps. (but this has no on access scanner) avira and avast are two companies that provide anti virus for free for linux as well, I could look for the links if you are interesed01:44
kaddilinuxguy: wait around, maybe someone more familiar with this kind of problem will help you, I can't help you with this :/01:44
ign0ramuslinuxguy, you may want to try here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution01:46
bravelkaddi interesting, I'll try clam, I had tried to install avast free linux as I've used it on my windows installs and have tried clam loaded from a usb stick, but the version I have crashes wine when I tried that to launch it01:46
ign0ramuskaddi, i thought you left :P01:47
kaddiIs it possible to view *.chm files with firefox/ an ubuntu-browser?01:47
ign0ramusbravel, bitdefender also makes a free linux version of a/v.01:47

ign0ramuskaddi, :)  https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/323501:48
kaddiof course, there had to be add-on for it. :D there's an add-on for everything :D01:48
ign0ramuskaddi, "there's an add-on for that!" :P01:48
kaddiha, I'm a genius, I can now view chm files. ;)01:53
ign0ramusdoes anyone know when Firefox 3.5 will be in the repos?02:03
kaddiin a couple of days?02:08
kaddithere is already a firefox-3.5 package from rc2, maybe if you install it, automatic updates will take care of informing you when it arrives?02:10
kaddi:D02:10
ign0ramuskaddi, yeah, i tried it, but it's very buggy. I have 3.5 final on my Windows partition, and it is awesome02:10
ign0ramuskaddi, i'm hoping the new javascript rendering will make java applets usable in kubuntu :P02:11

corigo2Any idea how I can find out which version of Guidance Power Manager is installed, and what version is the most recent?02:56
corigo2I'm having serious issues with Guidance, with it shutting down my computer on a full battery regardless of my activity.02:57
kaddicorigo2: do you know the name of the package?02:57
kaddicorigo2: try apt-cache policy guidance-power-manager in the command line it should tell you the installed version and the latest version in the reps02:58
corigo2kaddi: thanks, now how do I tell which version is distributed with Jaunty?03:01
kaddi_the latest version disponible in the reps is listed as candidate, if they are identical, you are up to date.03:02
kaddi_You could then maybe check out backports or experimental repos to find newer version, but I doubt they will be more stable ;)03:02
corigo2I'm trying to determine if I need to go back to 8.04 or forward to 9.04... At least 8.04 worked for sleep and did auto-shutoff my computer for no reason. I already know 9.04 won't sleep and wake up without crashing X03:04
corigo2(did not auto shut off)03:04
corigo2I see that in Jaunty Guidance is no longer used, but the replacement isn't mentioned03:05
kaddi_corigo2: I would think that this heavily depends on your hardware and the compatibilty to jaunty. I have not really used it, so I can't tell...On my pc it says version  4:4.2.0-0ubuntu2 003:06
kaddi_corigo2: that is quite possible I moved back to guidance, because I wanted to use it, lol03:07

BluesKajahh, very cool ...good idea , ign0ramus03:41
thechris"It is assumed throughout this wiki that you have Kubuntu 6.10 (Edgy Eft) installed. "03:41
thechristhe wiki also explains how to use apt-get to install the program that isn't working03:41
BluesKajthechris, maybe you need to enable some of your sources03:42
ign0ramusthechris, ok, lets start from the beginning... what version of kubuntu, and what kind of wireless card?03:42
BluesKaj!repositories03:42
ubottuThe packages in Kubuntu are divided into various sections. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Kubuntu - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecommendedSources for the recommended way to set up your repositories03:42
thechrisBluesKaj, i'm not using apt.  no network connection.03:43
thechrisign0ramus, this is x86 kubuntu, 9.04.03:43
thechristhe card is detected, and is an rt2600pci IIRC03:43
thechristhe network manager is able to see my AP, and allows me to click "connect"03:44
thechrisbut it doesn't attempt to connect, and times out a bit later03:44
BluesKajign0ramus, I'm going to leave this in your capable hands ...sacktime ..nite folks03:44
ign0ramusthechris, do you have the connection encrypted (password)?03:44
ign0ramusBluesKaj, gnite BluesKaj! :)03:44
thechrisign0ramus, while I do, it doesn't even attempt to connect -- the activity light on the AP would normally turn on03:45
thechrisign0ramus, also, the PW is set to the correct type and the PW has been verified on the AP.03:45
ign0ramusthechris, i would try it without a password, just to see if it will connect. Network Manager is nototriously fickle with WPA in particular03:45
ign0ramus*notoriously03:45
thechrisdoes kubuntu use wpa_supplicant?03:46
ign0ramusthechris, don't know about NM, but i know wicd uses wpa_supplicant03:47
thechrisi don't really care about NM, i just want wifi to work.03:47
ign0ramusthechris, then i would try installing wicd03:48
thechrisign0ramus, failed, no route to host03:48
ign0ramusthechris, do you have a flash drive?03:48
ign0ramusthechris, wicd .deb file is here: http://mirrors.kernel.org/ubuntu/pool/universe/w/wicd/wicd_1.5.9-2_all.deb03:49
thechrisI'll try wpa_supplicant out first.  That tends to work.  This flasy "works out of the box" stuff never does.03:49
thechriswell, 08.10 did03:49
ign0ramusthechris,  you can always manually edit /etc/network/interfaces03:50
thechriswtf is with the cruft in /etc/wpa_supplicant/03:53
ign0ramusthechris, don't know - never had to mess with it03:54
thechrisreally, i had hoped the new version of kubuntu would be better.03:56
thechrisI expect things to not work, and require some configuration in gentoo...03:57
ign0ramusthechris, kubuntu jaunty is a re-write of a lot of things... i'd say it's akin to a first-gen model of a car.03:58
ign0ramusthechris, for example, i have intel graphics, and the performance is *terrible* without some manual configs and workarounds... many of these issues are promised to be fixed in Karmic03:58
thechrisign0ramus, i essentially use *buntu as an install around 1-2 times per year.  in the beginning, it wouldn't even install.03:59
thechrismy impression is that its quirky -- things don't fail, but they don't work either04:00
ign0ramusthechris, what did you have to do to get it to install?04:00
ign0ramusthechris, kubuntu jaunty is definitely 'quirky'04:00
thechrisign0ramus, that was a few years back that *buntu wouldn't even install04:01
ign0ramusthechris, ah, i gotcha04:01
thechrisI had tried ubuntu 8.10 and within a day had found something like 13 bugs.04:01
thechrissome of which already had bug reports.04:02
ign0ramusthechris, that's the nature of a linux distro04:02
ign0ramusthechris, the difference is that in linux, you can report the bug to the person or team developing it, and it gets fixed04:03
ign0ramus(usually)04:03
thechrisign0ramus, well, a lot of the bugs were just "something is odd, no error messages"04:03

[ITA]mitticoooothx I already saw it, but i thought was installer version, not live cd :(09:46
kaddi__kubuntu is installed from a live-cd. :)  You download the iso, start the live-cd. If you like what you see, there is an icon on the desktop of your live-cd environnement to install kubuntu  to your pc09:48

[ITA]mitticoooothat is i don't know if the notebook is a 64bit or not09:52
kaddiyou should be fine with a 32bit version, even if your notebook has a 64bit processor. Kubuntu now recognizes a lot of wifi cards automatically, so maye you're lucky and everything will work fine :)09:56

[ITA]mitticooooBut i see from network settings, that wifi card is recognize because i can make a scan of wireless connection and select the mine10:52
kaddi[ITA]mitticoooo: Maybe you need to start it separately. I don't know the live-cd that well... Go to start->programs->internet and start knetworkmanager then you should get a tray icon for internet connection10:52
kaddi[ITA]mitticoooo: what happens when you select your wifi?10:53
kaddiIs it encoded? If so what protocol? WEP? WPA? WPA2?10:53

[ITA]mitticoooobut there is "automatically connect" after i scanned for wifi connection and put my wifi10:58
[ITA]mitticooooi figured pops out a window for inserting the password when I opened a browser, but not happens10:59
kaddi[ITA]mitticoooo: can you try typing knetworkmanager into your account? (But I'm really not familiar with the live-cd and I'm not familiar with knetworkmanager either)11:00
[ITA]mitticoooowhat means "into your account"? I tryed searching manually going throw the internet application, or by inserting knetw.... in the search bar11:01
kaddi[ITA]mitticoooo: sorry lapse of mind.. I meant "type into your terminal"11:01
[ITA]mitticoooobut seems there is nothing related with wifi11:01

kaddiit's a live-cd don't now if you can install things? (I'm really not familiar with live-cds)11:05
kaddi[ITA]mitticoooo: do a right click on your desktop, select add widget and see if you find a networkt applet in the list. There should be. :)11:06
[ITA]mitticoooook i try11:06
[ITA]mitticooookaddi: there is a network applet but doesn't play :(11:11
kaddi[ITA]mitticoooo: I'm sorry I can't really help you then. As Bou suggested wicd is a networkmanager which works pretty well for most jaunty users. But it is not included on the live-cd, you would have  to install and I don't if this is possible with a live-cd11:13

noaXesshow can i configur grub, so that it allways boot's from hd on sata1?14:22
