thesandman Ign0ramus: can you tell me how many root servers am I suppose to have ?00:07
simon__oh. thanks. is it just alsa now?00:07
simon__ign0ramus: or what is it now?00:08
ign0ramussimon__, i believe it is OSS -> Alsa -> Pulseaudio00:08
ign0ramussimon__, although Pulseaudio is currently pointless (and detrimental) in Kubuntu (or KDE in general)00:08
simon__oss...? thought that died once ago..00:08
ign0ramussimon__, i'm just reciting from memory, but i believe OSS is still present in Jaunty00:09
ign0ramusthesandman, what do you mean? (what are you trying to accomplish?)00:09
plaguehivok, still having problems whit my driver.00:09
thesandmanwell I was looking at some of thoses commands in the bash command link you sent me and I saw a lot of root servers present and was wandering why so many and just in general was someone there that was not suppose to be00:10
simon__ign0ramus: --00:10
simon__ign0ramus: ... as i just mentioned i used debian befor kubuntu... there, oss was not used... so far i know00:11
ign0ramus!sound | simon__00:11
ubottusimon__: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ARTS is running, by going to K Menu -> System Settings -> Sound System and making sure "Enable the sound system" is checked. If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP300:11
ign0ramussimon__, OK, dont listen to that... that's old info :/00:11
ign0ramuswe should really fix that one ...00:12
ign0ramusthesandman, for all intents and purposes, 'root' on the cheatsheet is really just 'superuser'00:13
ign0ramus!kdesudo | thesandman00:13
ubottuthesandman: In KDE use « kdesudo <program> » (or « kdesu <program> » for Feisty and earlier) to run graphical applications with root privileges when you have to. Never just use "sudo"! | See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to find out why00:13
thesandmanIgn0ramus how do you change your replies to red?.....i been trying to learn how to change my font color in here for a while now...even though someone tried to tell me but it still want work for me for some strange reason00:14
ign0ramusthesandman, if you're used to Vista, it's like running with Administrator Privileges00:14
thesandmanok00:15
ign0ramusthesandman, depends on your IRC client.  I use Konversation, and when someone types my nick, the font is red, and a sound plays. I set this in Settings00:15

vltHello. I ran a cpu intensive bzip2 job on the console. After a few minutes the kernel began to print the following message every 10 seconds: "BUG: soft lockup - CPU#0 stuck for 11s [top:6635]". When I hit SysReq+e (terminate) I got a large kernel dump w/ a last line: "kernel panic ... not syncing ... fatal exception in interrupt". Any idea where to look for the problem?01:09

MJackHey does anyone know how to DISABLE the auto-alignment of Widgets in Jaunty 9.04 ?01:40
FanfareMJack: auto-alignment?01:43
MJackFanfare: ya the widgets won't align perfectly and auto-move to be at least 1/8th of an inch from the sides of the screen01:44
FanfareMJack: u mean window/dialog placement?01:45
MJackFanfare: yes... like the Sticky Notes widget in the desktop won't align perfectly along the side of the screen... I put it there and then 1/2 second later it moves away from the edge like 2cm... all widgets seem to do this and it's annoying, lol.01:46
FanfareMJack: ok, u mean Stick, minimize, maximize, close buttons in titlebar?01:49
MJackFanfare: no the titlebar that pops out on hover is fine and goes away when the mouse leaves... I'm talking about the WHOLE WIDGET moving away from the side of the screen after I place it there... kind of like it has an "auto-align to grid" thing... like you know how your Desktop auto-aligns folders/files to the box/grid? Well it's doing that with the widgets and I want to disable it and put widgets EXACTLY where I want them...01:52
FanfareMJack: ur talking bout plasmawidgets / plasmoids?01:54
MJackFanfare: I'm talking about the plasmawidgets that come installed with Kubuntu 9.04 Jaunty... Kubuntu 8.10 they were called plasmoids but I think they are just called widgets in the 9.04 Jaunty version.01:59
Fanfarewell, now we are talking bout the same, lets call em plasmoids afaik thats theyr (new) name02:00
Fanfarehm, yes i ve seen that behaviour too, but cant right now reproduce...02:00
Fanfareok, reproduced near screenborders02:01
MJackWhat version of OS are you using?02:01
MJackI just installed the fresh copy of Kubuntu 9.04 with KDE 4.2 named Jaunty and the plasmoids auto align themselves to the sides of the screen which is something I want to DISABLE... but I can't find a setting for it.02:03
Fanfare4.2.90-0ubuntu1~jaunty1~ppa102:04
Fanfarethats 4.3-beta02:05
FanfareBut u can move these plasmoids!? And the should remember positions02:06
MJackYes... you can move them, and they do remember their position... problem is I'm not able to move/align them perfectly along the side of the screen as they always want to be like 2cm from the edge...02:07
FanfareMJack: ok, 2cm thats heavy.02:08
Fanfarewich theme do u use? all oxygen?02:08
MJackyes..02:08
MJackCould it be a theme thing? or a Plasmoid thing? I can align FireFox and Quassel perfectly along the edge of my screen and they stay,,, but the plasmoids are unable to be aligned perfectly along the edge... they stick out like 1-2cm no matter what I do...02:10
FanfareWell, i use oxygen and i dont have that prob...02:13
MJackFanfare: interesting... well I'll keep looking into it... thanks for trying to help. Cya.02:13

jetBuild appears successful but since it's the source for a plasmoid I'm actively using I don't want to overwrite it, just run in some sort of sandbox04:30
jetI got the new version of plasmoidviewer from neon; it's supposed to be able to run right out of your build directory but it's not happy with mine04:33
tmerriam_can you give it different name? mypluginv2 ?04:33
jetSure, if that's the right approach.  Which file do I hack for that? Thanks.04:34
tmerriam_i dont know, its just a suggestion. ive never hacked plasmoids. i assume theres a makefile or some equivalent that sets the target filename04:35
jetthanks anyway.  Wish there was a good source of info on the build process.  Everything I've found so far appears incomplete or out of date04:39

Naddixi never telenet before04:45
tmerriam_you most likely want an nvidia. radeon isnt quite there yet with 3d yet.04:45

Naddixthat are being offeres=d04:46
Naddixyes i understand that04:46
asobiwell, i want something easily compatible as well04:46
Naddixbut the problem is the other way04:47
Naddixme sending him a file04:47
tmerriam_ive heard nvidia has good support. it is a binary blob, but the packages are in ubuntu, and it will probably work04:47
CPrgmSwR2Yes, in order for you to send him a file, he has to listen on a particular port04:47
asobithanks04:47
CPrgmSwR2If you can telnet to that port, then that isolates it down to the porgram04:47
tmerriam_right now compatibility and performance are at opposite ends of the spectrum, sadly.04:48
CPrgmSwR2if you can't than its an issue with your friends network setup04:48
Naddixok04:48
Naddixi did personally set up his router04:48
Naddixremote connected to his router and set it up myself04:48
tmerriam_quite a shame really, i think the radeons are a better value than a lot of nvidias offerings04:48
CPrgmSwR2If you can recieve files suggest the program is working just fine, btw are you using the kde4 version or kde3 version04:48
asobiso i should get budget card04:49
CPrgmSwR2tmerriam_: radeon has been improving quite a lot04:49
CPrgmSwR2tmerriam_: before my computer crashed the radeon card I had worked pretty well, this included composite support04:50
tmerriam_it has, ive been folowing the development04:50
tmerriam_ive never had fglrx working. good riddance imo04:50
CPrgmSwR2what version is your card, mine was an r30004:51
tmerriam_r58004:51
asobiis nvidia more compatible than ati?04:53
CPrgmSwR2asobi: yes04:53
asobik04:53
tmerriam_ive heard good, but my experience with proprietary blobs, fglrx and other, has been very negative04:54
tmerriam_my rule of thumb now is if the driver not in the kernel, or xorg or whatever, expect trouble04:55
=== DOOM777 is now known as doom777
asobiwhere do you check for that04:55
tmerriam_if the kernel supports a specific driver?04:56
asobiyea04:56
CPrgmSwR2The sad part was it took over a year before the fglrx driver was any good for the r300 chip set04:56
asobihttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsVideoCardsNvidia is the best i found04:56
tmerriam_http://kernel.xc.net/ this site is good04:56
Naddixwell i can telnet to his file fine but its the other way im having issue04:57
asobidoes gnome or kde matter?04:57
* asobi runs kubuntu04:57
CPrgmSwR2interesting04:57
Naddixvery weird04:57
tmerriam_i use kde. my girlfriend uses gnome. i think kde uses the compositing more by default04:57
asobithat kernal link is over my head04:58
CPrgmSwR2Naddix, can you telnet to 172.0.0.1 across that port on your pc04:58
CPrgmSwR2127.0.0.1 is a loop back address04:58
Naddixok04:58
Naddixi will try this04:58
Naddixty CPrgmSwR204:59
tmerriam_lol. it shows the entire configuration for the whole kernel. you can load the full config and use Ctrl+F to find the device you want.04:59
tmerriam_http://kernelnewbies.org/ this site is good too, though i dont use it very much05:00
asobii don't even know which kernel i am using @_@05:00
tmerriam_2.6.2805:00
tmerriam_err.... jaunty right?05:00
asobihardy i think05:01
asobi8.0405:01
tmerriam_type 'uname -r' at the console05:01
NaddixCPrgmSwR2 im not able to connect to the share05:01
tmerriam_dont want to upgrade or do you want the LTS?05:01
asobilts05:02
CPrgmSwR2kde is starting to shape up quite nicely05:02
Naddixhow would ubuntu be blocking thi s05:02
Naddixor is it the app05:02
Naddixbut i could not send in xchat either05:03
tmerriam_@CPrgmSwr2 yeah, im using the beta for 4.3 its really slick. i think ill stick with stable versions after this, though05:04
Naddixbut i used my router assigned ip and it worked05:04
CPrgmSwR2tmerriam_: same here05:05
CPrgmSwR2Naddix: the telnet worked?05:05
Naddixyes it did05:06
CPrgmSwR2tmerriam_: I update so I am on the release canidate of kde 4.305:08
CPrgmSwR2tmerriam_: I just wish they would release kopete05:08
tmerriam_whats the deal with the highlighted lines? are you doing something special, Cprgm?05:09
CPrgmSwR2Naddix: In your router, do you have port forwarding setup05:09
Naddixyes i do05:09
CPrgmSwR2Naddix: it sounds like your router is blocking the connection05:10
Naddixi would have had to go though my router to telnet05:10
Naddixi used my router assinged address to connect05:10
CPrgmSwR2because a telnet to 127.0.0.1 does not go through anything but your computer05:10
Naddixwouldnt it05:10
Naddixno i telnet using 192.168.2.305:10
Naddixwhich was asigned by the router05:11
Naddixi wanted to test the ports05:11
CPrgmSwR2if thats your computer IP address, that will work too05:11
CPrgmSwR2127.0.0.1 is a special ip address05:11
Naddixloopback05:12
CPrgmSwR2tmerriam_: that has to do with me putting your screenname in the text I am typing05:12
CPrgmSwR2tmerriam_: what irc client are you using05:13
tmerriam_CPrgmSwR2: like this?05:13

Naddixok05:14
Naddixthe thing is i wonder if the dsl modem is in anyway internfering05:15
Naddixthere is no firewall setup on the modem05:15
Naddixi have that turned off05:15
NaddixCPrgmSwR2 what program do u use05:15
kubuntuuserI should probably ask for help here instead of #ubuntu :)05:16
tmerriam_CPrgmSwR2: me neither. im new to using IRC, and i use Quassel cimply because it came with kubuntu05:16
Naddixok05:16
Naddixi tried xchat and same thing05:16
Naddixit got to be that modem somehow05:16
kubuntuuserare there any good xorg managers?05:16
tmerriam_xorg managers?05:17
kubuntuuserI seem to have hosed mine somehow thorugh installing compiz-fusion and the latest proprietary ati drivers05:17
kubuntuuserso I get graphics glitches and I don't know how to fix it being a linux noob05:18
tmerriam_what do you mean by xorg manager? ive never heard that term05:18
CPrgmSwR2Naddix: prehaps its being blocked by a software firewall05:18
Naddixnot on my machine05:18
Naddixnot sure about the clients05:18
Naddixmy friends i did turn off his windows firewall05:18
kubuntuuseroh, I thought that by now there might be a sane xorg.conf manager to figure out what I have and not mess it up05:19
CPrgmSwR2kubuntuuser: I would try downgrading to the previous proprietary ati drivers05:19
Naddixhe has the same router as me , i remoted to his router in order to open his ports05:19
Naddixim going to try to get my friend to telnet to my file05:19
CPrgmSwR2kubuntuuser: its not what you messed up but probably has to do with the latest drivers released05:19
CPrgmSwR2kubuntuuser: its not uncommon for ati to release drivers with graphics glitches05:20
kubuntuuserare there any good laternatives?05:20
CPrgmSwR2kubuntuuser: take a look at www.phoronix.com in the forums they usually take about the issues05:20
kubuntuuserok05:20
CPrgmSwR2kubuntuuser: there are at times opensource alternatives but they don't work quite as well as the closed source drivers05:21
kubuntuuserit's like my monitor's trying to be in two modes at once, not good for the eyes either05:21
tmerriam_....for some things.05:21
CPrgmSwR2Naddix: are you using Konversation?05:22
Naddixyes05:22
CPrgmSwR2because I see the default port range is 1026 to 700005:22
Naddixyes05:22
CPrgmSwR2So it could be any of those ports05:23
Naddixi can see which port the file is shared on05:23
Naddixit alwasy starts with 102605:23
CPrgmSwR2ah okay05:23
Naddixwhen u share the file it says the external ip and which port its on05:23
kubuntuuserone question, should xorg.conf have two monitor sections and two display sections?05:25
CPrgmSwR2kubuntuuser: depends, it can have one or two05:25
kubuntuusernever had a 2nd monitor attached or anything05:25
kubuntuuser2 monitor, 2 screen, 2 device sections*05:26
CPrgmSwR2WOW rafb.net/pastebin has been shutdown05:26
Naddixmy friend tried to telnet to the share and was not able to05:27
CPrgmSwR2hmm...05:28
CPrgmSwR2can you put your freinds pc direct onto the internet line05:28
CPrgmSwR2so its not behind a router and try it05:28
Naddixvery very strange05:28
Naddixyes i will try that05:28
Naddixi did do that on my side05:28
CPrgmSwR2Naddix: Yes I know, but what about your friends side05:29
Naddixim going to do it right now05:29
CPrgmSwR2kubuntuuser: there is a way to have the ati utility configure your xorg.conf file05:31
CPrgmSwR2I wish I could remember the command05:31
tmerriam_i think it was fglrxconfig or something....05:32
Naddixdoes envy-ng work in kubuntu for these ati guys05:32
Naddixi know there is a gtk version but a command based too05:33
tmerriam_not sure that applies to me... support for my card was dropped from the proprietary driver a while ago05:34

Hystoriker_can anybody please help me?07:20
alba_maybe you could try in #kde Hystoriker07:21
alba_fg56xfd,  maybe you could try to install in text mode and see what happens... it might be a problem with the cd/dvd reader?07:22
alba_then you can install the desktop with apt-get install kubuntu-desktop i think that could be an option (as long as you can install in text mode07:23
alba_besides, did you try to just check the option "try kubuntu without any changes to your hard disk"?07:24
fg56xfdalba_: But I need a gui to do some partition editing, otherwise I might accidently delete the wrong one.07:24
fg56xfdAnd yes, i tied the "try kubuntu" same thing, errors, then a terminal.07:24
alba_hmmm do you have a lot of partitions?07:25
alba_because its essentially the same than with a gui, just without it... they are easily recognizable unless  you have a bunch of them07:25
alba_i.e i have one of 80 and one of 30... so i know for kubuntu is the one of 3007:26
AdolaHi!  I have 3 kernels, I want a different one other than the default to be the one it loads.07:27

AdolaHey um, how can I ping a machine on a local network to see if it's connected?07:38
agathaping computername i guess Adola07:40
agathaor ping the ip adress of the machine07:41
AdolaHow do I get the ip of it?07:41
agathaifconfig (on the machine) or check the dhcp in the router, that will give you the ip adresses07:43
agathaifconfig, in the terminal of the machine you want to get the ip adress from that's better07:44
AdolaIt doesn't show the ip, ifconfig doens't.07:44
agatha   inet addr:192.168.0.18207:46
agathathat's my ifconfig, and for sure is the adress of this machine, remember you need to do it in the other machine, not in the current one07:46
AdolaOk, um, I see an inet addr for my ppp0 (Which is my dial-up) But, my eht0 is only an inet6 whatever that is, I need to fileshare, and I need to do that through ethernet of course.07:48
agathathen adola do you have a router?07:49
AdolaYessir.07:49
agathain most of routers (if not in all) there is a section for the dhcp07:50
Adolaeth0, lo, ppp0 , that's all I see.07:50
peabodyok so if I boot into a recovery shell, everything is normal. But once KDM loads, when I try to open text-based terminals (tty1 etc) my monitor errors : Input Signal out of Range how do I fix this?07:50
agathathere should also give you the computer names, with their ips (or the mac adresses with ip)07:50
agathabut in which computer you are doing it adola? because ifconfig will show you the ip adress of the computer where you are asking it. not the other one07:51
Adolaagatha: Yes, I know.07:51
AdolaOk, wait, what is DHCP?07:51
AdolaShould it be listed when I an ifconfig?07:51
agathanope its something the router does, assign an ip to each machine in the network.. i will try to find a 'better' explanation07:52
agathasec07:52
agathaAdola,  i can explane it with my words or give you the wikipedia article... whatever suits you better...07:53
agathayou tell me what you prefer07:53
AdolaWords please :)07:54
AdolaI'm unable to file share between these two ubuntu machines.07:54
Adola(One is Kubuntu, the other, UNR)07:54
agathaok so when you have 2 computers in a network, each of them has an internal ip adress, to be identified on that network, dhcp is the service which assigns an ip to each machine in such network. Normally in the router, there is information about this07:55
agathathats why i am telling you to check the ip's in the router07:55
AdolaOk, how can I go about doing that?07:56
agathayou need to access the router...do you know the default gateway and username and password?07:56
AdolaUm....I don't believe it has one....07:57
agathaum?07:57
agathaare we sure you are using a router?07:58
AdolaOh noes, it's a workgroup switch.07:58
agatha-.-07:58
agathado you know the computer name of the other machine at least Adola ?08:00
Adolaagatha: Yes!08:00
agathaso try pinging it08:00
agathai guess that should do... ping computername08:01
agathatry ping -c 3 computername something like that Adola08:02

agathaand check the computer name first :)08:06
AdolaYes, one is adam-desktop, the other is adam-laptop08:06
agathaok which is the one you need to ping/08:06
AdolaOk, so, from desktop08:06
agatha?08:06
AdolaI was able to ping laptop..08:06
agathaaha08:06
AdolaBut not visa-versa08:06
agathathat means that one of those the unknown host is not in the network08:07
agathayou should be able to ping A from B and the other way around08:07
AdolaI can only go A-B not B-A08:08
agathathen for some reason, b cannot see a08:08
agathai dunno if it might be related to the workgroup switch, i am not familiar with those08:08
AdolaGod, I thought I was buying a router...THE PICTURE WAS SO SIMILAR>08:08

^peter^phant0m_  GUI is Grapical User Interface  mouse and screen, rather than keyboard.09:38
scott2211Coyote`: download the firefox.tar.gz from their website09:38
alakhiaif you know the package name, you can run: dpkg -L <package_name>09:38
Coyote`and compile it ?09:38
alakhiathat will give you all the files contained in the package09:38
scott2211Coyote`: you just have to download and extract it. then put the folder wherever you want and run the firefox executable inside09:39
alakhialook for either a man page, html docs, or something in bin directory to run directly09:39
phant0m_yes pete thts kinda what i was expecting a gui that i can run the scan with09:39
Coyote`scott2211 > ok i'll try now :)09:39

amikwhile we're on the topic, does using the restricted drivers gui thing just do an apt-get or is there something else to it?13:48
BluesKajamik you choose which driver is recommended and then it uses that13:49
BluesKajit=HAL13:49
amikBluesKaj: but does it use it just by installing the package normally or does something more complex?13:51
BluesKajit has to do with the kernel and graphics driver support13:52
BluesKaj!HAL13:52

amikBluesKaj: in other words, if I want say nvidia 180 drivers, does selecting it in that gui and apt-getting it result in an identical system?13:52
flithmHey all, when I try to play anything through my soundcard the app just freezes.  The module is loaded fine, alsa appears to be working, I can control the mixers, but sound output always freezes. Anyone have any idea what might be going on?13:52
BluesKajamik , the drivers are sort of held in escrow , ready to be called  when you make your choice , but choosing a driver which isn't recommended may break your system.13:54
BluesKajamik but apt-get installing the right driver works too :)13:55
afeijowhy apt-get isnt offering the update to firefox 3.5 ?13:55
BluesKajafeijo, because it's not an official release13:56
amikBluesKaj: so they're all installed (as in downloaded and available), but only one of them actually gets loaded and used?13:56
afeijoare you sure? thats weird, it is official, its on the main page, and all articles about it13:56
BluesKajamik , yeah, that's about right13:56
amikFF 3.5 was officially released a couple days ago afaik13:57
afeijoyep13:57
flithmhttp://www.ubuntusolutions.org/2009/07/installing-firefox-3-5-the-right-way-on-ubuntu-jaunty.html13:58
amikmy windows boxes are updated, but kubuntu is still waiting...13:58
BluesKajafeijo, if it was official then FF would have auto-upgraded13:58
amikI thought the ubuntu FF package disables the built in auto-update mechanism, and uses only the regular distro repos, no?13:59
afeijoBluesKaj: it did on all windows that we have here, but our linux machines that Check for Updates menu item isnt even enabled13:59
flithmBluesKaj: Ubuntu doesn't put the newest version into backports.  Firefox 3.5 is definitely official, but that doesn't mean they'll backport13:59
afeijoamik: that what I was thinking, only thru distro13:59
afeijobut distro isnt updated yet to 3.513:59
flithmthey might soon because it's a high profile app, but usually they don't13:59
BluesKajthe linux version isn't ready13:59
flithmyes it is BluesKaj13:59
afeijoBluesKaj: I downloaded the tar.gz file13:59
BluesKajwell then go for it14:00
amikI agree - it's very high profile, and will hopefully be available as soon as they package it (apply the ubuntu patches etc.) and make it available in the repos. I hope :-)14:00
afeijoI always installed it thru apt-get, not sure where to unpack it14:00
afeijoI'll wait14:00
flithmyou can install from the mozilla nightly ppa repo14:00
BluesKajdownloading the tar file tells me it's not official for linux yet ,  it's not an official upgrade in linux14:01
afeijoif the file is on the firefox site, its official enough for me lol14:01
BluesKajtar file means it's still testing on linux14:01
amikI'd love to upgrade too, but to be honest, it won't make any difference for the time being ;-)14:01
BluesKajwell afeijo , have fun14:02
afeijoyou too14:02
BluesKajI've read poor reviews for FF3.514:02
afeijoamik: its faster, and better memory management, it will make lots of difference to me I hope, as FF here after 5 hours under use go over 1 gb ram14:02
flithmBluesKaj: where does it tell you that?  I don't see aything about that14:02
BluesKajflithm, checkout techrepublic14:03
flithmBluesKaj: you said "downloading the tar file tells me it's not official for linux yet" -- I don't see anything about that in the tar file14:04
canenisn't there an easier way to clean up kernels than manually removing them?14:04
flithmthe download page makes it look like it's out and never mentions anything about testing for linux or anything like that14:04
afeijolol14:04
amikhttp://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/3.5/releasenotes/ - looks official to me, linux included14:07
BluesKajflithm, if FF was "official" for linux , the next time you used FF , it would auto-upgrade to the latest version without having to compile from source14:07
afeijoits just the folks who deal distro need more time to update it14:07
amikBluesKaj: afaik ubuntu disables the FF build in updater, so that all updates go through the repos14:08
flithmBluesKaj: that's absolutely not true.  Mozilla team releases firefox, and ubuntu packages it.  Mozilla doesn't package for Ubuntu.  And Ubuntu does not automatically put new versions of apps into the package repo14:08
flithmnew versions must go through the backports procedure14:08
BluesKajamik, yes that's a given , that you have the repos in your sources list14:08
flithmBluesKaj: I am the author of an app that in the ubuntu repos so I know how it works14:09
phant0m_anyone got any advice on how to view rkhunter log it wont let me in14:09
phant0m_permission denied even as root14:09
BluesKajwell bully for you , but it's still isn't official14:10
amikBluesKaj: the point is that the FF auto-upgrader is disabled in the ubuntu packages.14:10
amikI just hope they package it up quickly, so that it remains shiny enough when we get the upgrade!14:10
flithmBluesKaj: please provide a source for your information.  I think you just don't understand how packing works on Ubuntu.  Just because it's not in the ubuntu repos doesn't mean a release isn't official.  Those two things have nothing to do with one another!14:11
phant0m_anyone ? rkhunter?14:11
* BluesKaj wonders how he got FF3.0 without a repos deb14:11
amikphant0m_: what permissions does the log file have?14:11
phant0m_?14:11
phant0m_root14:11
phant0m_i launch from terminal as root14:12
phant0m_and then when its done it tells me to access log file14:12
amikphant0m_: if u run 'ls -lk' on the file you're trying to access, what's the result?14:12
phant0m_when i try to it tells me to get lost basically14:12
phant0m_ok hangon ill try it14:13
amikanyway, I think there's just confusion over the semantics of 'official'. There's Mozilla's official FF 3.5 release, already out. Soon there will be an official FF 3.5 ubuntu package release.14:15
BluesKajflithm, official for windows maybe, in linux if it isn't in the repos, it's not official IMO14:15

Sakamocchican I set it with krandrtray?14:19
BluesKajfrankly  flithm why should we care about "official in other distros" , they don't count here anyway14:19
amikphant0m_: now what happens if you run 'sudo less /var/log/rkhunter.log'?14:19
flithmBluesKaj: no worries, I know it's confusing.  If we want to get really pedantic, FF 3.5 is already available in Ubuntu 9.10's repos.  The Ubuntu MOTU team is just really cautious about putting new releases of stuff directly unto the Universe repo.14:20
phant0m_k brb14:20
flithmBluesKaj: the whole point is that the FF 3.5 linux release IS official, done, final, and out.  And that it is not available in 9.04's repos.14:20

amikBluesKaj: almost true - except for the fact that once the original developers made a realease, it means it's *possible* to make an ubuntu package release. before that, it's not possible. so it serves as a sign a sign that it's just around the corner, not waiting for anything other than package maintainers to wrap it up.14:21

ubottutwinview is a feature provided by nvidia cards, which can be configured with nvidia-settings14:34
phant0m_soz amik btw?14:35
flithmphant0m_:  it's probably because those files have changed after a system update or something.  Are they changes relating to system files?  You can update rkhunter's database by doing "sudo rkhunter --propupd" and should probably do "rkhunter --update" then "rkhunter --check" to run it again14:36

tsimpsonno, we actually say "soz", verbally14:42
phant0m_you see how long ive been under windows even effecting my slang terms lol i should sue14:42
amiktsimpson: like 'sauce' with a z?14:42
amikthere we go offtopic again... so I'll repeat an unanswered question from earlier:14:43
amikat what point during startup are DNS services (client-wise, not server) available?14:44
phant0m_i aint a clue what your talkin about14:44
tsimpsonamik: not quite, start saying "sorry" (the "so" bit), but end with a 'z', like the end of "buzz"14:44
phant0m_lol14:44
amiktsimpson: yeah, I realized my question was silly, coz u say 'sauce' differently too :-)14:45
BluesKajhmm offtopic ... ?14:45
flithmamik: depends, are you using DHCP?  if so, then the DHCP client usually sets /etc/resolv.conf from the info it gets from the DHCP server.  In Ubuntu's case this is typically done whenever NetworkManager connects14:45
phant0m_we dont say it funny we spawned english language14:45
amikphant0m_: of course. It's english language itself that's funny. others just try to fix it :-)14:46
phant0m_lol yeah spose they do14:47
amikflithm: I've gotten that far, but still stuck: I see that resolv.conf has a comment saying it's generated by NetworkManager. I see NetworkManager being started as S50NetworkManager (with no corresponding K, btw)14:47
BluesKajif you spoke any of the scandinavian languages (except for finnish)  then you'd know that english merely another derivative of old norse :)14:48
amikflithm: but when I start james as S51, I still get errors (I actually added a printout of resolv.conf to the beginning of the init.d/james script - which shows a blank resolv.conf)14:48
flithmamik: no K part is fine... what's the actual problem?  I missed the beginning of the problem I think14:48
phant0m_flithm this is what i got [14:43:07]   Checking for local host name                    [ Found ]14:49

FloodBotK2phant0m_: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.14:49
liberfiascoI've upgraded to RC1 in backports.. and there are no windows in task manager, the only way to switch between windows is alt-tab.. anyone knows anything about that?14:49
amikflithm: I'm trying to run Apache JAMES (their Java mail server) as a daemon on startup. When run manually - no problem. when run during boot - I get errors looking up DNS stuff.14:50
liberfiascoit's such an obvious bug.. it could't have gone missed like this :S14:50
liberfiascoespecially since they focused on task manager in the beta..14:50
amikflithm: so I figured the network (whatever that includes) may not be set up yet. so I set it up to start after NetworkManager (S51 after S50), but still - nada14:50
amikflithm: and I think NetworkManager does have something to do with it, because resolv.conf is generated by it, and gets emptied by it during boot (that's the symptom I see) only to be filled again with the nameserver by the time the system is up and running.14:52

phant0m_/dev/shm/pulse-shm-3121711648: data14:52
flithmamik: the problem is that network manager may not connect until you log in depending on how it's set up.  Do you use wireless or anything?  have you tried putting it in /etc/rc.local?14:52
phant0m_suspicious file types according to rkhunter14:52
flithmrc.local is guaranteed to run after everything else14:52
flithmphant0m_: those are fine14:53
BluesKajnetwork manager is flaky , wicd works well here on 3 machines , both wifi and eth014:53
liberfiascomeh brb14:53
amikflithm: no wireless14:53
phant0m_so why has it had me on a wild goose chase14:53
amikflithm: I followed instructions of using update-rc.d to set it up. what's rc.local?14:53
tsimpsonphant0m_: because rootkit hunters are not perfect and will almost always throw up at least one false-positive14:54
flithmphant0m_: it's just being cautious.  shared memory files can be a cause for concern but pulse creates those for a reason.14:54
phant0m_right ok ty14:54
flithmamik: rc.local is the init script that runs last.  You can use it to run things at startup that you know need to run after everything else14:54
flithmamik: it might be a good way to test... put like "cat /etc/resolv.conf > /tmp/TEST" in there, reboot, and see what's in there14:55
amikflithm: is there anything network related that gets set up after NetworkManager?14:56
amikflithm: I will. that's exactly what I did at S51, which I expected to be ok, but it was still empty (i.e. before NetworkManager filled it in - even though it ran after NetwrokManager!)14:56
amikThat's one thing I think linux makes way too wierd and error prone. in windows, there's just explicit dependencies. u can mark for each service what it depends on, and everyting just works by itself.14:58
flithmamik: what is the dependency information you put in your S51 script? Did you say networking and network manager need to start before it?  Try renaming it to S99 just for kicks14:58
flithmamik: I suspect you might have got the dependencies marked wrong14:58
amikflithm: quite possible... what/how should it be?14:58
amikI actually thought the Snn numbers determine the order, and thus implicitly the dependencies14:59
amikis there some good tutorial on this whole business? couldn't find anything helpful15:00
flithmamik: not quite.  They determine the desired order.  The init system is much more complex now than it used to be, it can even start services in parallel.  Thus the dependency system.  You should have "X-Start-After: networking NetworkManager" in there I think.  And you created the script in /etc/init.d/ right and then symlinked it to rc3.d and rc5.d?15:02
=== reinhold is now known as reinhold_away
amikyep, a manual "/etc/init.d/james start" works correctly, and I used update-rc.d to set up the levels15:03
flithmamik: the X-Start-After should be in the comments at the top of the file.  Have you manually verified that the script is in rc3.d rc5.d?  (good to be sure it's done the right thing)15:04
amikso doesn't that mean anything S51 will run after S50? why the explicit X-Start_after? is that a script command?15:04
amikthe scripts are in rcX.d, and everything does run. just with these dns errors.15:04
amikwell I suppose now I have a new google term to search for (x-start-after). I'll read up and see what I can learn...15:05
amikthanks!15:05
flithmThe numberings still matter yes15:06
flithmMy theory right now is that when S51 is running NetworkManager has started but the DHCP client hasn't finished getting an address yet, so resolv.conf hasn't been written to yet15:06
amik... or maybe not. googling linux x-start-after gives nothing.15:07
flithmIt could be wrong, but that's my guess15:07
Gargoyle76doom777: i have set all that up...it works well...sry yes nvidia card...i want to run it as a separate x screens15:07

fg56xfdIve tried everything i can to get my Atheros wireless to work. Some times when I boot up it sees my network and all the networks all around me. But most of the time when I boot up it dont see any of them, and when i manually enter the ssid to my router it says there is no signal (even though its less than 6 inches away) Ive tried almost every guide on the ubuntu wifi page and none of them work. And most people with atheros cards report them16:19

Thesilentwarriordarkreech, i am not normally a linux user, i use linux on this one, because its too slow for windowsxp for example, and kubuntu works much better and looks alot nicer16:57

Tm_Tthat's not for regular users20:52
cjaewell windows open on wrong screens and separate x screens doesnt work at all, is that enough reason? not trying to be rude btw20:52
Tm_Tcjae: are you sure that driver would fix this?20:53
cjaeyes says so in release notes20:53
Tm_Thmm, you can try, but has no warranty (:20:54

cjaeFixed XineramaQueryScreens to return 0 screens instead of 1 screen with the geometry of screen 0 when XineramaIsActive returns false. This conforms to the Xinerama manual page and fixes an interaction problem with Compiz when there is more than one X screen.20:55

aaa_hi!21:05
Daskreech!Hi21:08
ubottuHi! Welcome to #kubuntu!21:08
AloneaDaskreech: ok, sorry, had lunch as well. how big is swap? 1.5 the amount of ram?21:09
DaskreechAlonea: for 2 GBs if you aren't doing heavy things .5 -1 times the size is good enough21:09
AloneaDaskreech: ok. no, all I do in linux is program and see how much drama I can create by trying to do things like compiz and wine. I sure make my life difficult21:11
AloneaDaskreech: it was odd when I could do compiz with no issues but any application in wine would crash like no tomorrow. Complete black screen, total freeze. have to hold down power button.21:12
DaskreechAlonea: What makes that odd?21:13
AloneaDaskreech: really just the fact that 3d accel works ok in os, but any applications in wine freeze that requires it...its a problem with the card/drivers. Its even bad in windows. That and I probably just don't understand whats really going wrong21:14
DaskreechAlonea: Ah yeah I know that it's annoying21:14
DaskreechHooray I got 3D games working in Kubuntu now to play some through wine21:15
Daskreech*Mushroom cloud*21:15
Alonealol, that would be about right21:15
* Daskreech sits in a black sooty room with large blinking eyes21:15
AloneaDaskreech: I have the evil intel 965 card...21:15
Daskreechheh21:15
DaskreechThe one that went crazy just before jaunty came out?21:15
* DOOM777 soooooooooooooooo tired of linux21:16
* Alonea cries as she is unable to raid in wow anymore due to card21:16
DaskreechDOOM777: try FreBSD :)21:16
DOOM777lol21:16
DOOM777i just had this for three days21:16
AloneaDaskreech: yeah, I remember I asked about it and they were like, we are working on it...21:17
DaskreechDOOM777: ha ha learnt all you need to learn?21:17
DOOM777it was three days of continuous configuration, installation, update, reinstallation hell21:17
slow-motionhi21:17
DaskreechDOOM777: Yeah Linux does that. Most of the time once that's done it works for years21:17
Daskreechubuntu is trying to buck that trend >_>21:17
AloneaDOOM777: unfortunately, Linux has a learning curve. It all depends on why you want the os and what you want to do.21:17
Daskreechbut pretty much the outlay is worht it21:17
DOOM777Daskreech: are you kidding me? I have no idea what most commands do, what signals are, how shells work21:18
DOOM777Alonea: i am a programmer. I must know it :'(21:18
AloneaDOOM777: same here, CS student at RIT.21:18
DaskreechDOOM777: that makes you normal21:18
DaskreechOutside of not knowing how shells work you are also a normal linux user21:18
AloneaDOOM777: it get easier and linux is your friend if you are a programmer.21:19
DOOM777Say what you want about evil windows and macintosh, but if they had as many problems, everyone would rain on them.21:19
DOOM777yea, that's also an interesting concept.21:19
DOOM777Want something to work? Write it.21:19
Aloneamy only problem with windows is instability and mac treats you like you are 12 and locks you out of everythign21:19
DOOM777windows didn't have it's GUI crash  unrestorably, making me reinstall the entire damn os. TWICE.21:20
DaskreechDOOM777: Eh? :)21:20
Aloneathat and the options for compiling in windows are very undesirable for me21:20
DOOM777****ing plasma21:20
DaskreechDOOM777: ha ha you'd get mad if i told you how to fix that21:21
Aloneawell, kde4 is still in the works so if you want a kde that is tried and true, go for 3.521:21
DOOM777actually, problems went away once I installed 4.321:21
DOOM777Daskreech: how?21:21
Aloneayes, tell me in case I run into it...going to be installing it after I burn it.21:22
DOOM777Alonea: what year are you in?21:23
AloneaDOOM777: well, with all the transfer madness I am considered year 3 by credits (its a 5 year program. 1 year of co-op)21:24
DOOM777you will get straight masters?21:24
=== davide is now known as davide0000
DaskreechDOOM777: mv ~/.kde4/share/config/plasma* ~21:24
DOOM777lol, I tried that21:24
Aloneano, not doing the BS/Masters at the same time thing. I will get my masters, but not at this time. If I get a job that will pay for it, I will.21:25
DOOM777it made everything completely messed up, icons all over.21:25
DOOM777cool21:25
DaskreechDOOM777: You have to logout before you do it ;)21:26
DOOM777i did21:26
DOOM777i did through ctrl+alt+f121:26
DOOM777tty21:26
AloneaRIT is a very good school for CS though and I have learned so much this year. CS also forces unix on you. You have to use it to turn assignments in.21:26
DOOM777yea, our university barely had any unix21:26
DOOM777except a little bit of cygwin21:26
* Alonea grumbles about how evil try is21:26
Alonea*shudder* I despise cygwin21:26
Aloneawe got labs with Solaris machines. the joy...21:27
DaskreechDOOM777: hmm did you try  mv ~/.kde4 ~/.kde4_bkup21:27
DOOM777no. But it doesn't matter. It works now.21:27
DaskreechYeah21:28
Aloneabe glad you did not try linux a year or so ago...the pains I had to go through for 3d accel and wireless internet...21:28
DaskreechI'm one of the unfortunate people21:28
DaskreechYeah Wireless sucked21:28
Aloneathough what was that program that set up the 3d drivers for you that worked pretty well? jade? j...gah, forgot the name21:29
DOOM777whatever, i'll go take a break21:29
AloneaI think it was a 4 letter word..21:29
Aloneabreaks are good.21:29
Aloneaok, it bugs me that I forgot the name.21:32
Aloneabah, I will be back later.21:32

xjjkit includes a utility called do-release-upgrade23:11
cjaebecause I am leary of the switch from adept to kpackagekit and the policy kit23:11
