| Aizawa | i see | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| rysiek|pl | AlexZion: so they're incomplete and far from fully stable | 00:00 |
| phh | rysiek|pl: there is absolutely no need for reverse engineering | 00:00 |
| phh | adobe gives docs | 00:00 |
| rysiek|pl | oh? | 00:00 |
| phh | yup | 00:00 |
| rysiek|pl | didn't know that | 00:00 |
| phh | if gnash/swfdec and co sucks, it's just because it's a hard thing to do | 00:00 |
| dwidmann | but it should be an awfully good bandaid :) | 00:00 |
| dwidmann | Aizawa: doesn't look like a full port, looks like it uses wine | 00:00 |
| rysiek|pl | anywhoo, I loathe flash in any form | 00:00 |
| dwidmann | They opened the dox on a bunch of stuff a year or so back | 00:00 |
| phh | dwidmann: ?!? | 00:01 |
| AlexZion | so , it means ..., using firefox I can't use flash fully compatible pages ? | 00:01 |
| phh | it IS a full port | 00:01 |
| AlexZion | that's incredible ... | 00:01 |
| rysiek|pl | AlexZion: you can, by using Adobe's binary plugin | 00:01 |
| AlexZion | I never had this problem in windows and I have this problem in Linux .. :O | 00:01 |
| phh | AlexZion: give flashblock a try ... | 00:01 |
| dwidmann | phh: I read about it back when it happened, so I forget the details and links and such | 00:01 |
| dwidmann | phh: is it? | 00:01 |
| rysiek|pl | AlexZion: humm... I guess Adobe puts much more effort in the windoze version, then | 00:01 |
| phh | dwidmann: the only thing google ever released as a wine hack is picasa iirc | 00:02 |
| AlexZion | and the point is ...., now as well , I have the problem in firefox , but opera worksgreat , konqueror as well, arora as well ...so it's just firefox problem .... | 00:02 |
| * rysiek|pl hopes that the <video> tag and <canvas> goodies will rid Teh Intertubes of the flash trainwreck | 00:02 | |
| AlexZion | and I'm a bit tired to have problem with firefox ... | 00:02 |
| rysiek|pl | AlexZion: then use konqueror or opera or whatever | 00:02 |
| rysiek|pl | AlexZion: or midori, or a thousand others ;) | 00:03 |
| phh | just don't use anything related to mozilla corp :p | 00:03 |
| dwidmann | phh: are you sure this is a full port? 36MB is pretty steep for a stripped down browser | 00:03 |
| AlexZion | yes of course, but how can be ... | 00:03 |
| rysiek|pl | AlexZion: I myself was tired of Ff, but frankly, 3.5 rocks, at least for me | 00:03 |
| phh | dwidmann: yep i'm sure | 00:03 |
| AlexZion | I mean firefox is an opensource software , just like linux ... | 00:03 |
| rysiek|pl | AlexZion: and? | 00:03 |
| phh | dwidmann: but it comes more or less as a static binary | 00:03 |
| AlexZion | it should "FLY" on it ..., instead it has a lot of problem ... | 00:03 |
| phh | and with a lot of stuff | 00:04 |
| dwidmann | phh: and I'm sure that package I just found *isn't* a port, but a wine hack, ie: /opt/cxchromium/lib/wine/* | 00:04 |
| phh | cxchromium ? | 00:04 |
| phh | what the hell is that ? | 00:04 |
| rysiek|pl | AlexZion: well, as I have said, use whatever fits you | 00:04 |
| dwidmann | That's what I just found o.O | 00:04 |
| phh | dwidmann: that's not the good thing then :p | 00:04 |
| rysiek|pl | AlexZion: I am happy with Ff 3.5, with occasional excursions towards Konqueror | 00:04 |
| dwidmann | phh: then supply me with a good link :) | 00:04 |
| AlexZion | firefoz would be perfect for me , if it just works .. , that's the point ... | 00:04 |
| phh | dwidmann: searching | 00:04 |
| rysiek|pl | AlexZion: what version are you at? | 00:05 |
| AlexZion | now I'm trying the 3.5version , but is the same as before .... | 00:05 |
| phh | dwidmann: http://dev.chromium.org/getting-involved/dev-channel | 00:05 |
| AlexZion | and I'm pretty sure, if I delete o rename the firefox folder , everything works ..... | 00:05 |
| rysiek|pl | AlexZion: well, I guess it depends on many factors | 00:05 |
| dwidmann | phh: I think I had dropped by there ... and the download was something ridiculously, terribly, unreasonably, awfully large. | 00:06 |
| rysiek|pl | AlexZion: which firefox folder | 00:06 |
| AlexZion | but I can't anytime , reinstall anything ... | 00:06 |
| phh | dwidmann: this download is only 13.4MB | 00:06 |
| AlexZion | firefox profile folder | 00:06 |
| rysiek|pl | AlexZion: try removing/disabling some extensions | 00:06 |
| rysiek|pl | AlexZion: often an extension borks something | 00:07 |
| dwidmann | Wait, ah, THAT link ... I had read about a few issues with regarding it though :( | 00:07 |
| AlexZion | yeah , I can try , but I didn?t install any extension since few weeks , and before was ok , but after some time ...., doesn't wprks anymore ... | 00:07 |
| AlexZion | I mean .... | 00:07 |
| rysiek|pl | AlexZion: or try swiftfox: http://getswiftfox.com/ | 00:07 |
| AlexZion | I need some kind of crystal ball , to know what's going on ? | 00:08 |
| dwidmann | Something privacy and/or security related | 00:08 |
| * dwidmann hands AlexZion an 8 ball | 00:08 | |
| rysiek|pl | AlexZion: I have no idea whatsoever what are you talking about | 00:08 |
| phh | dwidmann: "Note: The Linux build still lacks certain privacy features, and is not appropriate for general consumer use." | 00:08 |
| phh | but it's no big things | 00:08 |
| rysiek|pl | phh: waaait... *Google*'s browser "lacks some provacy features"? | 00:09 |
| rysiek|pl | uhm... | 00:09 |
| AlexZion | so ,probably I'0m just unluky ...., but I hadthe same problem with Kubuntu 8.10 , and now with 9.04 , the sam problem ... | 00:09 |
| phh | rysiek|pl: yeah, no big deal :p | 00:09 |
| phh | rysiek|pl: it's just hum... google ? :p | 00:09 |
| dwidmann | rysiek|pl: the current linux build is lacking some privacy stuffs that the windows build has, that the linux build will have later | 00:10 |
| rysiek|pl | phh: I'd say "Thanks, Captain Obvious", and "I wouldn't touch it with a 7 feet pole" | 00:10 |
| phh | :-) | 00:10 |
| dwidmann | I wouldn't touch IE with a 39 1/2 foot pole. | 00:11 |
| phh | rysiek|pl: actually, when they say it "lacks" privacy features, it means that browser sends a lot more information to google servers than other builds :D | 00:11 |
| rysiek|pl | yeah, I guess | 00:11 |
| rysiek|pl | dwidmann: my ie-usage pole get's longer with every release | 00:11 |
| phh | rysiek|pl: when you click on the associated link they sa it | 00:11 |
| rysiek|pl | 6, 7, now 8 feet... | 00:12 |
| rysiek|pl | phh: well, you know... whatever. Google probably has my full profile anyway, but why help them more? | 00:12 |
| phh | rysiek|pl: because you love them ? :p | 00:12 |
| rysiek|pl | phh: you know, it's more of a "lova-hate" relationship | 00:14 |
| phh | yeah, i feel the same with it. | 00:14 |
| rysiek|pl | there is no better search engine, yet, but they're take on privacy gets on my nerves | 00:14 |
| dwidmann | Don't like that google knows everything about you and still want to use google? http://scroogle.org | 00:15 |
| phh | dwidmann: i trust more google than an unknown website | 00:18 |
| rysiek|pl | dwidmann: good one! | 00:18 |
| rysiek|pl | anywhoo, Tor FTW | 00:18 |
| AlexZion | I'mtrying swiftfox , it looks like firefox .... , and use the same adds ... | 00:18 |
| AlexZion | :O | 00:18 |
| dwidmann | I don't personally "know" either of them, and therefore don't really trust either of them either :\ | 00:18 |
| dwidmann | AlexZion: I'm under the impression that it's a recompile of firefox, or something like that | 00:19 |
| rysiek|pl | AlexZion: swiftfox IS firefox, but compiled with better optimizations | 00:19 |
| fg56lx | How can i make KSnapshot open with the print screen button? | 00:19 |
| fetusbubble | good one, dwidmann | 00:20 |
| AlexZion | that's great ..., thanks for the advice ..., I'll give a try to it .. | 00:20 |
| fetusbubble | totally fell for that | 00:20 |
| dwidmann | :) | 00:20 |
| singenor | hello | 00:26 |
| singenor | my name is jose | 00:26 |
| AlexZion | ok , but in swiftfox , I have the same problem ..., maybe is the page which is write ina strange way !?! | 00:26 |
| dwidmann | AlexZion: seeing as swiftfox is firefox, except recompiled/rebranded, any problem you have in firefox you're going to have in swiftfox too | 00:27 |
| rysiek|pl | gtg, cu all | 00:28 |
| AlexZion | so , I have to look for something else .... | 00:29 |
| singenor | hello hello | 00:29 |
| dwidmann | Alex135: well, it's not like there aren't literally dozens of options, compounded even more by the fact that different versions of the same browser can behave very differently in some regards | 00:30 |
| dwidmann | grr, I meant AlexZion, not alex135 ... my tab button is cursed :( | 00:31 |
| AlexZion | :) | 00:31 |
| AlexZion | right ,I got it,but I still badly surprise to see firefox working better in Windows than Linux ... | 00:32 |
| dwidmann | Firefox is relatively stable, flash however, isn't. | 00:33 |
| dwidmann | high CPU usage, hanging, weird crashes, zombie processes, and more with web browsers can be traced back to flash ... | 00:35 |
| phh | dwidmann: it's still way better under windows than linux | 00:36 |
| dwidmann | "way better", are you sure you're not exaggerating? | 00:37 |
| phh | well a bit | 00:37 |
| phh | firefox isn't really usable under windows too | 00:37 |

| AlexZion | an other question guys...., how can I install some new windows decoration for kubuntu | 00:47 |
| yurimxpxman | I'm trying to use arecord to capture my soundcard output, but it sounds fuzzy and it changes volume in the recording as I change the master volume on my soundcard. Is there a way to make this better? | 00:47 |
| phh | Alex135: just go in systemsettings => apparency | 00:49 |
| AlexZion | I was quite happy with dekorator , but on the 4.3 version , doesn't looks so good , i mean , on the corner of the windows you can see some horrible white space ... | 00:49 |
| AlexZion | phh: I knowwhere I can change , but I didn't find anything to install some new theme .... | 00:49 |
| phh | there are already themes for windows | 00:50 |
| phh | but you can look at kde-look.org | 00:50 |
| AlexZion | I know, I was looking there , but even if I can download some theme , I don't know how to use it .. | 00:51 |
| phh | it must be says on the page | 00:51 |
| phh | you have to extract it somewhere in ~/.kde | 00:51 |
| phh | but i don't remember where exactly | 00:51 |
| AlexZion | anyway , there aren't so much theme for kde 4 ... | 00:54 |
| AlexZion | I was really happy with dekorator , but now , I have to wait the "complete implementation" in Kde 4.3 I guess ... | 00:55 |
| phh | AlexZion: there are styles packaged into kubuntu also, try to find it | 00:56 |
| AlexZion | phh: however ..., thaks a lot for the support | 00:56 |
| phh | !find kde-style | 00:56 |
| ubottu | Found: kde-style-qtcurve, kde-style-skulpture | 00:56 |
| phh | only two ? ok. | 00:56 |
| phh | !find kwin-style | 00:56 |
| ubottu | Found: kwin-style-crystal, kwin-style-dekorator, kwin-style-qtcurve, kwin-style-skulpture | 00:56 |
| AlexZion | you mean using the package manager , right ? | 00:56 |
| phh | yup | 00:56 |
| phh | but there isn't many themes... only two ... | 00:57 |
| AlexZion | yeah , I saw , and are both installed :) | 00:57 |
| phh | (just for the troll, on mandriva 6themes are available) | 00:58 |
| AlexZion | I'ma graphic designer,should I try to understand how to build a theme and than make my own theme to share .. :9 | 00:58 |
| AlexZion | but I had some problem with the system so I tried to remove compiz , and now it goes much better , except for the decorator :D | 01:05 |

| Guest53930 | yes | 01:30 |
| Guest53930 | ip address | 01:30 |
| MushroomKingdom | Like, what are you trying to do? Connect to a router? | 01:30 |
| Guest53930 | no sir, connect to a network card in kubuntu | 01:31 |

| MushroomKingdom | Hm.. | 01:31 |
| Guest53930 | by the way my name is franco | 01:31 |
| Guest53930 | i come from el salvador | 01:31 |
| MushroomKingdom | Usually IP's automatically assign themselves when you connect to something | 01:32 |
| Guest53930 | no when you dont have dhcp | 01:32 |
| MushroomKingdom | If you have a specific IP from the card | 01:32 |
| Guest53930 | mine is static | 01:32 |
| MushroomKingdom | Hmmm.. You know to be completely honest I don't do alot of work with networks so I don't have much of an idea. My mini network is dhcp enabled and I have an IP range of 99 for anyone who I allow to connect. | 01:33 |

| ubottu | Firefox 3.5 Final is available for Jaunty by installing the package firefox-3.5 | FF3.5 is referred to as Shiretoko on your UI, see http://is.gd/1reB3 for more info | Hardy & Intrepid: http://is.gd/1jkNY | 02:13 |
| trevor__ | why is it reffered to shiretoko? | 02:14 |
| Pici | See http://is.gd/1reB3 | 02:15 |
| decoy_ | that was its alpha codename I think, the package just got updated to 3.5 final yesterday | 02:15 |

| DaskreeCH | beagleburt: You got told off for asking about 8.04? That's strange | 02:58 |
| beagleburt | is it? i do not use IRC much as i am disabled & typing is too slow. another time before i got told to ask about problem i was having with K-8.04 in #ubuntu !? so i am very confused | 03:00 |
| DaskreeCH | beagleburt: k-8.04 is Kubuntu 8.04 ? | 03:01 |
| beagleburt | sorry yes! | 03:01 |
| DaskreeCH | If so then yes #ubuntu is probably going to throw you out | 03:01 |
| beagleburt | yes! they told me off too!???? | 03:01 |
| DaskreeCH | They are too busy there to care much about kubuntu users. In any case what is your problem? | 03:01 |
| DaskreeCH | They shoudln't have done that | 03:01 |
| Pici | We're not going to throw you out, but if you don't get an answer we might suggest that you ask here as well. | 03:02 |
| beagleburt | Using KUBUNTU-8.10 LTS but can NOT seem to add an old HP-Deskjet-Portable (B&W) inkjet. System does NOT detect it - it is directly connected to computer via a parallel connection. Any help with this GREATLY APPRECIATED! as I have been trying for WEEKS to get it going. | 03:02 |
| Pici | beagleburt: 8.10 is not LTS by the way. | 03:02 |
| DaskreeCH | beagleburt: What model HP ? | 03:02 |
| beagleburt | SORRY - my mistake - have just been reading about 8.10, i meant 8.04 | 03:03 |
| beagleburt | HP-Desjet-Portable (Black & White) | 03:04 |
| beagleburt | DaskreeCH: sorry "Deskjet" | 03:05 |
| DaskreeCH | Now :-) Could you perhaps be a little more specific? | 03:05 |
| DaskreeCH | Hp makes a lot of Deskjet printer models | 03:05 |
| beagleburt | HP-Desjet-Portable (Black & White) | 03:06 |
| fetusbubble | do you have a model number? | 03:06 |
| beagleburt | It does not have a model number! it is V-E-R-Y old! | 03:07 |
| beagleburt | it was working ok with Kubuntu 6.06.LTS | 03:07 |
| beagleburt | the manual says it was printed in September 1992 | 03:11 |
| DaskreeCH | :-) Hmm | 03:12 |
| DaskreeCH | How would you get a printers model in Linux? :( | 03:13 |
| DaskreeCH | lshw or lspci won't work | 03:13 |
| DaskreeCH | Is it a USB printer? | 03:13 |
| beagleburt | DaskreeCH: No - it is a parallel port connection but my system does not seem to detect it? | 03:14 |
| DaskreeCH | beagleburt: Why do you say it doesn't detect it? | 03:15 |
| beagleburt | DaskreeCH: when i try "HPLIP" it does not detect it | 03:17 |
| DaskreeCH | that would be a good way | 03:18 |
| DaskreeCH | do you type it in caps like that? | 03:18 |
| beagleburt | DaskreeCH: when i try SYSTEM SETTINGS > Printers ...the KDE printer wizard has Parallel/USB faded option out. I have not got the URI right yet i suspect | 03:19 |
| beagleburt | DaskreeCH: "HPLIP" is an item in KDE MAIN MENU > System > HPLIP Toolbox | 03:21 |
| DaskreeCH | Ah ok | 03:24 |
| beagleburt | DaskreeCH: I have also been trying the CUPS utility @ http://localhost:631 but there again i have had no luck | 03:25 |
| DaskreeCH | It didn't detect it? | 03:26 |
| DaskreeCH | Is the Printer on? | 03:26 |
| beagleburt | DaskreeCH: No. it didn't detect it. YES! it is on!do you know how i can detect my parallel port? | 03:27 |
| DaskreeCH | Yes but you shouldn't have to. | 03:30 |
| alexsandro | someone from Brazil? | 03:31 |
| === alexsandro is now known as Ahlex | ||
| beagleburt | DaskreeCH: i have tried "Puppy Linux" & i was able to set up the Printer ok with that & it printed a test page ok but i discovered that it was using a later version than my desktop Kubuntu 8.04 version of CUPS | 03:32 |
| beagleburt | DaskreeCH: i have downloaded the same version of CUPS but i do not know how to "Compile" - (?) it??? | 03:33 |
| beagleburt | DaskreeCH:i have googled for the information but all the hits seem to be compiling some other files - i can't find out how to specifically compile CUPS yet? | 03:35 |
| DaskreeCH | beagleburt: Well if it worked in an older version of CUPS then we are probably just missing a driver | 03:36 |
| fetusbubble | and in which case.. we'll need more info of your printer to find a specific driver for it | 03:37 |
| beagleburt | DaskreeCH: I have to go very soon to the Doctors appointment may i PM my e-mail to you? | 03:37 |
| DaskreeCH | Yes | 03:37 |

| eatThisAndDie | weird. | 03:59 |
| DaskreeCH | Pidgin was updaed and pushed as an unattended update I think | 04:01 |
| DaskreeCH | If that works for you then use that till kopete gets the nod or if you are already on some version of KDE 4.3 update to RC | 04:02 |

| WindPower | (Posting this message on this channel as well hoping to get more help if possible...) Hi people, I just bought this Asus laptop and am using Kubuntu 9.04-bits on it right now, but the Ethernet controller doesn't work. I tried on Ubuntu as well, and its 32-bit version. I'm using the wireless right now but it slow, unstable, and in a few days it won't be available anymore cause I'll be moving, so I need the ethernet controller to | 06:04 |
| WindPower | It's a SiS 191 Gigabit ethernet controller. I've googled around for 2 days now and I've read dozens of forums posts and mailing list messages, some of them going back to 2005, and most of them ending without solution. Any suggestions? | 06:04 |
| tomdavidson | anyone familuar with mozplugger? | 06:05 |
| DaskreeCH | WindPower: Does it come up in ifconfig ? | 06:08 |
| WindPower | Yes, absolutely, it shows up and all, but the network manager says it's "Unavailable" | 06:09 |
| WindPower | I've put a dump at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=7585549 | 06:10 |
| DaskreeCH | WindPower: when you plugin a cord does it light up? | 06:10 |
| DaskreeCH | Assuming it has lights? | 06:10 |
| WindPower | No, no light | 06:11 |
| WindPower | At least no light within the ethernet port itself | 06:11 |
| WindPower | There is however a little led on the front | 06:11 |
| WindPower | Nevermind, that's for the wireless | 06:11 |
| WindPower | It doesn't light up either but the wireless seems to work anyway | 06:12 |
| DaskreeCH | right | 06:12 |
| DaskreeCH | So ... I take it when you plugin another computer in the same port it works? | 06:12 |
| WindPower | You mean plugging that ethernet cable into another comp? Yeah, it does, and using the same ethernet cable works on WIndows on this very laptop | 06:13 |
| WindPower | So it's not a deffective cable | 06:14 |
| DaskreeCH | Right | 06:14 |

| chris_angel | hi guys! I switched from gnome to kde :) | 11:14 |
| simon__ | hi there, can someone tell me how I can figure out which version of kubuntu/ubuntu I have ? | 11:16 |
| simon__ | or... what I more would like to know... if there is anyone still active in this channel... how can I review the messages that pop up from kde plasma as info boxes ? | 11:19 |
| rysiek|pl | "review"? | 11:19 |
| simon__ | yes - they pop-up in a box. then disappear. | 11:21 |
| Bou | oh | 11:21 |
| simon__ | how can i .... "get them back" to read again what it said? | 11:21 |
| Bou | you mean see it again? | 11:21 |
| rysiek|pl | simon__: click on the "i" icon on your panel | 11:21 |
| simon__ | it disappears too! | 11:22 |
| rysiek|pl | simon__: humm... then that's a bug, probably | 11:22 |
| Bou | you mean it pops-up and back too fast? | 11:22 |
| simon__ | (and for the short time that its visible... i cant figure out whats the name of the programm... to get info on how to configure it.) | 11:22 |
| simon__ | its visible for one or too seconds. | 11:22 |
| simon__ | but sometimes there are several info boxes above the other.. | 11:23 |
| Bou | well 1 or 2 secons seems ok for a notification pop-up.. | 11:23 |
| Bou | yep | 11:23 |
| simon__ | yes. but if you just come to your computer... and they disappear you might want to know what they saig. | 11:23 |
| simon__ | said | 11:24 |
| Bou | then click on "I" as rysiek|pl said | 11:24 |
| === eli_ is now known as Elirips | ||

| chris_angel | what version of KDE is shipped with kubuntu 9.04? | 11:26 |
| chris_angel | "which" | 11:27 |
| bazhang | kde4 chris_angel | 11:28 |
| chris_angel | bazhang: ok thx, there is a newer version right? | 11:29 |
| bazhang | chris_angel, you wish for kde3? | 11:29 |
| bazhang | !kde3 | 11:29 |
| ubottu | Kubuntu 8.04 ships with KDE3 and full support. Jaunty does not include KDE3 but a remix install CD can be obtained at https://wiki.kubuntu.org/Kubuntu/Kde3/Jaunty . This is not officially supported. Support, instructions and ways to contribute can be found on the wiki page | 11:29 |
| chris_angel | bazhang: not really but I use ubuntu and installed KDE via the synaptic package manager | 11:30 |
| bazhang | chris_angel, I believe there is a PPA for 4.3 | 11:30 |
| chris_angel | bazhang: how do i check which version of kde I'm running? | 11:31 |
| simon__ | how can I find out why my audio device sometimes doesnt work? | 11:31 |
| simon__ | chris_angel: use konqueror and the menu... that says 'help' | 11:32 |
| simon__ | (then 'kde') | 11:32 |
| chris_angel | simon__: ok thx :) | 11:32 |
| bazhang | chris_angel, about kde ? not sure as I am logged into gnome at the moment | 11:32 |
| simon__ | I used to have ....a artsd running (when I used debian but its not running on jaunty..) | 11:33 |
| chris_angel | ok i've got KDE 4.2.2 | 11:33 |
| chris_angel | is that the newest? | 11:33 |
| simon__ | chris_angel: such as i... but i dont relly like it. | 11:33 |
| simon__ | I even dont know how to find out which programm uses the audio device... any suggestions? | 11:34 |
| chris_angel | simon__: okey, I've been running Gnome for about 2 years I just wanted a change | 11:34 |
| bazhang | chris_angel, there is newer, but experimental afaik (available via PPA) perhaps backports soon | 11:34 |
| chris_angel | simon__: hold on a sec | 11:34 |
| simon__ | ( I used to lsof /dev/<whatever> but dont know...) | 11:34 |

| simon__ | i really hate some hardware vendors... got one of those HDAudio soundcards... | 11:37 |
| alarm | hello, i am trying to install azureus, the problem is that for a strange reason the application to be installed requires a huge amount of dependent packages (that i have never seen on previous installations) : gamin gcj-4.3-base gnome-keyring gnome-mime-data gnome-mount gvfs gvfs-backends libavahi-glib1 libsoup2.4-1 libswt-cairo-gtk-3.4-jni libswt-gnome-gtk-3.4-jni libswt-gtk-3.4-java | 11:42 |
| alarm | and many others... | 11:42 |
| alarm | why is that ? what has gnome to do with azureus ? | 11:43 |
| bazhang | alarm, install from where | 11:43 |
| doktor | Selam | 11:44 |
| doktor | türkçe bilen var mı | 11:44 |
| bazhang | !tr | doktor | 11:44 |
| ubottu | doktor: Turk ubuntu kullanıcıları, Türkçe yardım ya da geyik için #ubuntu-tr hizmetinizde. | 11:44 |
| alarm_ | sorry , anyone answered ? got disconnected :) | 11:46 |
| bazhang | alarm_, installed from where | 11:47 |
| alarm_ | apt-get install | 11:47 |
| bazhang | vuze? | 11:47 |
| alarm_ | its not the first time i install azureus and i know that normaly it doesnt require all that stuff | 11:47 |
| alarm_ | no, apt-get install azureus | 11:47 |
| tsimpson | alarm: try with "sudo apt-get --no-install-recommends install azureus" | 11:47 |
| alarm_ | but vuze requires also that gnome stuff, which i find really weird | 11:48 |
| alarm_ | The following NEW packages will be installed: azureus libcommons-cli-java libcommons-lang-java liblog4j1.2-java libswt-gtk-3.4-java libswt-gtk-3.4-jni | 11:48 |
| alarm_ | well that looks better i guess | 11:48 |
| alarm_ | why was that happening before ? could there be an error on my dependencies or something ? | 11:49 |
| tsimpson | no, just recommends where suggests should probably be | 11:49 |
| alarm_ | and i need the whole gnome family for instaling azureus ? :) | 11:49 |
| tsimpson | azureus depends on a lot of GTK stuff, which (somewhere) recommends some gnome libs | 11:49 |
| alarm_ | ok, seems not to run. let me check whats going in the console | 11:50 |
| alarm_ | exec: 11: /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk/jre/bin/java: not found | 11:50 |
| alarm_ | ok, google is the doc :) | 11:51 |
| alarm_ | ok, many exceptions but seems to run | 11:53 |
| alarm_ | thank you | 11:53 |
| tsimpson | make sure you have openjdk-6-jre installed too | 11:54 |
| alarm_ | sorry tsimpson i wasnt paying attention here. | 12:07 |
| alarm_ | why would i need the openjdk ? | 12:07 |

| capcom | hi all | 12:55 |
| ibrar | I have a modem and I connect it using kppp but unable to browse the internet ? | 12:57 |
| capcom | i've a problem with jaunty and wlan.. i try to get wlan working with an avm fritz wlan stick (old version, not n-draft). the stick is installed using ndiswrapper as described at http://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/FRITZ!WLAN_USB_Stick and seems to be working correctly.. | 12:58 |
| capcom | it shows activity and i can connect to my wlan as well.. the problem is, i can't connect to any site or other computer in the local net or the internet | 12:58 |
| capcom | i'm using wicd as network manager and think i set up the device properly with the correct ip adresses and a valid wpa key | 13:00 |
| capcom | the mac address is known to the router as well cause i have a mac filter active there | 13:01 |
| phh | capcom: it's most likely you missed some of the ip addresses | 13:01 |
| phh | can't you use dhcp ? | 13:01 |
| darthanubis | I need a gkrellm replacement | 13:01 |
| phh | darthanubis: superkaramba ? (yeah kde thing) | 13:01 |
| darthanubis | all of the system monitors in plasma are amazingly vague as to what is going on? | 13:01 |
| darthanubis | like network traffic | 13:01 |
| darthanubis | and hard disk activity | 13:01 |
| phh | darthanubis: take a look at kde-apps.org, you'll maybe find somethings | 13:02 |
| capcom | phh: i always use static ip's and i set up everything as usual (before i had hardy running on the same machine and it worked fine) | 13:02 |
| darthanubis | I looked now I'm asking | 13:03 |
| ibrar | Any body give me tip | 13:03 |
| darthanubis | because what I have found is pathetic | 13:03 |
| capcom | and i have some laptops in the wlan as well with jaunty that work properly.. only difference is that these have internal intel wlan modules anstead of a avm usb stick | 13:03 |
| ibrar | I got the IP address and DNS address's but cannot ping to any IP | 13:04 |
| capcom | is it possible that there is somewhere still a setting that forces eth0 to be used instead of wlan0 perhaps? | 13:05 |
| phh | ibrar: route -n gives a default route ? | 13:05 |
| phh | capcom: if it's connected only | 13:06 |
| phh | (or if there are bugs in the driver) | 13:06 |
| capcom | phh: no i removed the cable.. and tried also sudo ifdown eth0 to be sure that it's inactive | 13:06 |

| phh | . | 13:08 |
| phh | oh yeah, it's not in the good order | 13:09 |
| phh | ibrar: try sudo route add default gw 192.168.7.1 | 13:09 |

| studiodude | Is it normal to loose all internet settings when switching from gnome to kde? | 13:18 |
| studiodude | I just went in to have a look at kde, which looks great, but found no internet connection available and no sign of wireless connection | 13:19 |
| darthanubis | studiodude: of course not | 13:19 |
| ubuntu | ll | 13:19 |
| bazhang | studiodude, what does ifconfig say in konsole | 13:19 |
| darthanubis | so no one here uses a detailed system monitor? | 13:20 |
| ubuntu | studiodude: how did you installed KDE and what Ubuntu version do u have? | 13:20 |
| studiodude | I'll have to log back in to kde - can i copy and paste across sessions? | 13:20 |
| studiodude | sorry - that was for bazhang - | 13:20 |
| studiodude | i'm new to this, still getting used to it | 13:21 |
| ubuntu | studiodude: the wireless driver is independent of KDE or Gnome it is inside Linux | 13:22 |
| bazhang | ah he quit | 13:22 |
| ubuntu | but Gnome uses an applet different than KDE to connect to networkmanager, so you probably have to set wireless configuration again in networkmanager-kde | 13:23 |
| ubuntu | did you installed kubuntu-desktop package? | 13:23 |
| studiodude | bazhang - i have the ifconfig file from kde | 13:28 |
| abdelrahim | nhnhkb | 13:28 |
| bazhang | studiodude, does it show eth0 wlan0 etc? | 13:29 |
| studiodude | its reading eth0 and eth1 and lo all have data attatched - there is no wlan at all | 13:29 |
| studiodude | but thats the same as in gnome | 13:30 |
| bazhang | studiodude, eth1 sometimes is wlan0 wrongly id'd | 13:31 |
| studiodude | i have just ran ifconfig in gnome and the files look identical - packet numbers are different obviously | 13:31 |
| studiodude | bazhang - ok so i have wifi in kde but its not easy to see how to switch it on | 13:31 |
| phh | studiodude: networkmanager just sucks, so yes it's normal. | 13:31 |
| phh | but you can configure it to sucks less, i just haven't found how | 13:32 |
| studiodude | phh - lol | 13:32 |
| phh | (you have to set your connections as "system connections") | 13:32 |

| ugur | hi people. Does anybody know when we will see firefox 3.5 in ubuntu repositories? | 13:39 |
| bazhang | ugur, now | 13:39 |
| bazhang | !ff35 | ugur | 13:39 |
| ubottu | ugur: Firefox 3.5 Final is available for Jaunty by installing the package firefox-3.5 | FF3.5 is referred to as Shiretoko on your UI, see http://is.gd/1reB3 for an explanation | Hardy & Intrepid: http://is.gd/1jkNY | 13:39 |
| ugur | really? let me check now | 13:40 |
| bazhang | its referred to as 'shiretoko' ugur | 13:40 |
| studiodude | ok bazhang - i found a wire and am in kde now - sudo dhclient eth1 returned quite a lot | 13:41 |
| ibrar | I got it working phh: | 13:41 |
| ibrar | but internet is really slow | 13:42 |
| bazhang | studiodude, wired? then it would be sudo dhclient eth0 | 13:42 |
| studiodude | it appears to work wired with no problem | 13:42 |
| studiodude | bazhang -the command you asked me to put in - what info do you need from that - can i paste it all in here? | 13:43 |
| bazhang | studiodude, paste.ubuntu.com please, and give us the url | 13:44 |
| ugur | ok there is 3.5 in the repos and there is also a transitional package for 3.1 users to install it as an update. Which one should i choose? | 13:44 |
| baron86 | Is there a configuration or a program to change the background of a folder? Thnx | 13:45 |
| studiodude | bazhang - sorry, i'm not quite with you - | 13:45 |
| bazhang | studiodude, open a browser, go to paste.ubuntu.com website , then paste the results of the command there, hit paste, and then tell us the url | 13:46 |
| studiodude | http://paste.ubuntu.com/213593/ | 13:46 |
| studiodude | ok -thanks - bazhang | 13:47 |
| darthanubis | how can i have Konq open last viewed tabs upon restarting of Konq? | 13:47 |
| ugur | when i want to install FF 3.5 in kubuntu it is asking for gnome libraries. I know it is a gnome app but i already have FF 3.0 installed on my computer | 13:48 |
| baron86 | is there any info about the .directory so i can change the background image of a folder? Thnx | 13:48 |
| ugur | so is it really required to install all these libraries again? | 13:48 |
| bazhang | ugur, not the ones you have already, there are some others that are required though | 13:49 |
| ugur | ok then thanks | 13:49 |
| ugur | just to be sure | 13:49 |

| Le-Chuck_ITA | Hi there, is it possible in some way to make kde use "aspell -t" instead of aspell? | 14:42 |
| Le-Chuck_ITA | I am going crazy after kile not being able to spellcheck _latex_ ! | 14:43 |
| ugur | ahmos: you can execute df -hk at konsole to see partitions and disk usage | 14:43 |
| ugur | Matisse: both flv and avi are container formats both may include codecs for video and audio like divx or mp3 | 14:45 |
| ugur | you can use vlc player to convert from one format to another | 14:45 |
| Matisse | flv is also a container... so using ffmpeg wouldnt change the codec? | 14:46 |
| ugur | i use vlc player for all my encoding purposes and it easy to use | 14:46 |
| ugur | i dont know about ffmpeg | 14:47 |
| ugur | but i think it shouldnt change the codec | 14:47 |
| Matisse | And does vlc change the codec or not? | 14:48 |
| ugur | you can select the container and codec manually in the transforming process | 14:48 |
| Matisse | ok | 14:49 |
| ugur | just select convert/save in file menu and you will see the preferences | 14:50 |
| ugur | some codecs may not work with some containers so you should try by yourself | 14:50 |
| ka | Hi. Is there an app for controlling the amount of bandwitdh a application can use in kubuntu? | 14:51 |
| Le-Chuck_ITA | nobody knows if the command for spellchecking can be changed in kde? | 14:52 |
| ugur | Le-Chuck_ITA: you can execute alias aspell='aspell -t' to create an alias | 14:53 |
| Le-Chuck_ITA | ugur: but I don't think kde parses the .bashrc | 14:53 |
| ugur | it should | 14:53 |
| BluesKaj | hey folks | 14:54 |

| wet | hi, how can i establish home wireless network in kubuntu? | 14:54 |
| ugur | one is .bashrc which is executed each time you enter bash by running bash command | 14:55 |
| BluesKaj | !info wicd | wet | 14:55 |

| ugur | and the other is .profile which is executed when you login | 14:55 |

| BluesKaj | barbapapette, open package manager and enable third party software and check all the sources , except for the cdrom | 15:01 |
| yougoob | Matisse, i did that but I can only see "Appearance" - there is no theme. Sorry. it was a long time ago when I used KDE. | 15:02 |

| yougoob | Matisse, got it :) thanks | 15:03 |
| yougoob | Matisse, what do you call the panel here? it looks way way different than it did is this oxygen or plasmoid? | 15:05 |
| Matisse | plasmoids are those tools you can add to the desktop (like a directory view, weather casts and stuff) | 15:06 |
| yougoob | Matisse, oh silly me, like widgets right? | 15:06 |

| yougoob | :D seriously though, sorry i dont know the answer to your question, ive been waiting for answers too... | 15:30 |
| dark_rain | np. I think I probably need to ask in #konqueror | 15:31 |
| yougoob | ok. there are not that many kde 4.2 tutorials on the web... | 15:31 |
| dark_rain | true | 15:31 |
| dark_rain | what problem are you having yougoob? | 15:31 |
| BluesKaj | dark_rain, maybe #kde would be abetter chat for that question | 15:31 |
| yougoob | dark_rain, its very simple really, i cant change my desktop theme. when i click apply nothing happens... | 15:32 |
| yougoob | dark_rain, its just sad because these kde stuff sounds so cool | 15:33 |
| yougoob | dark_rain, glassified, carbon, slim glow... | 15:33 |
| dark_rain | BluesKaj: Thanks i'll try in there too | 15:34 |

| Matisse | dark_rain, do you how I change the style of the plasmoids? | 15:43 |
| yougoob | Matisse, they seem to change along with everything | 15:44 |
| Matisse | well, think i got it. | 15:44 |
| dark_rain | Matisse: Right click desktop, desktop settings, then desktop theme dropdown | 15:44 |
| Matisse | You have to chose "user defined" and define it on your own :) | 15:44 |
| Matisse | this sucks. I chose "user defined" and the dialog tells me to do that, before the changes will be applied... | 15:46 |
| dark_rain | Matisse: If you are interested, there is a package called: plasma-desktopthemes-artwork which contains a few themes for plasma. | 15:46 |
| dark_rain | Matisse: oh, you are customising in system settings? | 15:47 |
| Matisse | yes | 15:47 |
| Matisse | i would like too | 15:48 |
| Matisse | s/too/to | 15:48 |

| Byron | I'm trying to install Ubuntu 9.04 Server Edition, but it fails no matter what apps I choose. I want LAMP with Mail Server and OpenSSH | 16:17 |
| bazhang | Byron, the installer fails? | 16:18 |
| Byron | I can get to tasksel, make those choices and have the packages downloaded, but it fails instantly when it tries to install anything. | 16:18 |
| Byron | bazhang: Yes. | 16:18 |
| bazhang | Byron, did you md5 the iso? burn at very low speed ? | 16:18 |
| yougoob | sounds like a media problem | 16:19 |
| bazhang | could be a corrupt iso | 16:19 |
| Byron | No to md5 and IIRC, I burned it at 8x but I could be wrong | 16:19 |
| bazhang | !md5 | 16:20 |
| ubottu | To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/VerifyIsoHowto or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows | 16:20 |
| Byron | bazhang: I still have the ISO, but I don't have anything to which I can compare. It was a torrent I got from isohunt.com | 16:21 |
| Byron | Never mind. I see the hash now. | 16:21 |
| Byron | Let me double check it all | 16:21 |
| bazhang | Byron, at what point does the installer fail? any error messages | 16:21 |
| Byron | Oh yeah, WAY off from the default hash | 16:22 |
| bazhang | then that is the likely culprit | 16:22 |
| Byron | bazhang: Select and Install Software section. Let me get you the full error message. | 16:22 |
| Byron | bazhang: Here is the error message: | 16:25 |
| Byron | An instllation setup failed. You can try to run the failing item again from the menu, or skip it and choose something else. The failing step is: Select and install software. <Continue> | 16:26 |
| bazhang | Byron, this is ncurses, correct? seems the iso may be corrupt | 16:27 |
| yougoob | better to download from official website. | 16:27 |
| Byron | ncurses? No clue. I believe the ISO is corrupt if the md5 doesn't match up the slightest bit. | 16:28 |
| bazhang | there are official torrents as well | 16:28 |
| bazhang | Byron, that seems to be the case | 16:28 |
| Byron | bazhang: Of all things I would not have thought about md5. I kept checking my settings and such. | 16:28 |
| Byron | I'm downloading a new torrent. Should be done in about 12 minutes | 16:29 |
| bazhang | Byron, not to worry, I have made a large number of bad disks (coasters) | 16:29 |
| yougoob | lol @ bazhang | 16:29 |
| Byron | Yeah, I've known a few companies to do that. | 16:29 |
| yougoob | for tea | 16:29 |
| yougoob | heh, i installed regular ubuntu - then installed LAMP - then installed kubuntu-desktop | 16:31 |
| Byron | I don't get it. Why install a GUI for a server? | 16:32 |
| yougoob | for fun :D | 16:32 |
| bazhang | Byron, no need, once you get a good iso it should go well | 16:33 |
| Byron | I can't wait to have my LAMP server setup all nice and pretty to host my stuff. | 16:33 |
| yougoob | Byron do you have a domain? | 16:35 |
| Byron | yougoob: Yes and no. I have a domain, but it's not going to be used here. I'm going to setup my LAMP server for testing many different things and getting a better understanding of how servers work and function. | 16:36 |
| yougoob | Byron, exactly the same thing I am doing :D | 16:37 |
| Byron | 5 minutes left for the ISO. | 16:37 |
| Byron | How is that coming along for you, yougoob? | 16:37 |
| yougoob | its ok. i am a beginner. - so youtube videos are particularly time savers when it comes to learning new things | 16:39 |
| yougoob | that's fast | 16:42 |
| Byron | What is? | 16:42 |
| Byron | Time to check the md5. Download done. | 16:42 |
| Byron | :( | 16:43 |
| Byron | still not the correct hash | 16:43 |
| yougoob | your connection | 16:43 |
| Byron | Where can I download the official torrent? | 16:43 |
| Byron | !server | 16:43 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu Server Edition is a release of Ubuntu designed especially for server environments, including a server-specific !kernel and no !GUI. The install CD contains many server applications. Current !LTS version is 8.04. For more info see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ServerFaq/ and https://help.ubuntu.com/8.04/serverguide/C/index.html - Use the #ubuntu-server channel for support | 16:43 |

| yougoob | Hmmm. I don't think there is a kubuntu server... | 16:44 |

| Byron | Downloading now | 16:49 |
| Byron | yougoob: You think 700kb/s is fast? | 16:49 |
| Byron | Download will be complete in about 9 minutes | 16:51 |
| Byron | bazhang: The md5 that I've been using matches that of the site, not from the torrent site. | 16:52 |
| Byron | So I guess it is not a bad torrent | 16:52 |
| bazhang | Byron, that is odd; this is a text-only install correct? is there an option to check the disk integrity? | 16:52 |
| Byron | Yes and yes | 16:53 |
| bazhang | Byron, did you do the disk integrity check? | 16:53 |
| Byron | Doing that now | 16:54 |
| Byron | I don't suppose there is a free shipit for server edition, huh? | 16:55 |
| bazhang | let me check | 16:56 |
| Byron | 3 minutes left on the download. | 16:56 |
| bazhang | https://shipit.ubuntu.com/ yep there is | 16:57 |
| bazhang | takes more than five minutes though | 16:57 |
| === heinrich_ is now known as Guest90430 | ||
| Byron | Many things take more than 5 minutes. What specifically? | 16:58 |
| bazhang | shipping may be around a month for shipit cds | 16:59 |
| Byron | that's fine. As long as I have something concrete that I know is official and won't give me these issues, I'll wait for it | 16:59 |

| Byron | Download done and md5 confirmed. I guess I'll just burn it slower this time around. What is a good speed. I'm used to 8x for my slow burns. | 17:07 |
| bazhang | that should suffice, the md5 and the disk integrity checks are key imo, along with decent media | 17:08 |
| Byron | Burn baby, burn :) | 17:10 |
| Byron | so the slowest it will burn is 10x | 17:11 |
| Byron | Crazy netbook | 17:11 |
| Byron | Integrity check is at 60% for the original disk I have been using. | 17:12 |
| Byron | Should I wait for the integrity check to finish or terminate it at the current 81% and start with the new ISO? | 17:24 |
| bazhang | how long is it staying at 81%? | 17:25 |
| Byron | It's all been taking a while and I honestly haven't kept an eye on it as I've been doing the new ISO burn and moving my car out of the way. | 17:25 |
| bazhang | seems about 10 minutes | 17:26 |
| bazhang | perhaps give it a couple more, and if it does not budge from 81 try the other | 17:26 |
| Byron | it's at 84% now. | 17:26 |
| Byron | 85... | 17:27 |
| Byron | Yeah, it's moving along | 17:27 |

| dksoba88 | bazhang: 9.04 Jaunty | 17:39 |
| bazhang | dksoba88, how are you trying to install that driver | 17:40 |
| dksoba88 | bazhang: first I use ctr-alt-f1 to get to console, I stop kdm with sudo /etc/init.d/kdm stop, then I type "sh nvidia_driver_blah_blah.run" | 17:41 |
| dksoba88 | bazhang: then I use the interface | 17:41 |
| dksoba88 | bazhang: I was able to install the 185.18 driver for the Quadro FX570, but this did not work | 17:41 |
| dksoba88 | bazhang: when kdm started it would go haywire and things wouldn't display correctly, and it'd never get into X | 17:42 |
| Byron | bazhang: This download is worse that my original | 17:42 |
| dksoba88 | bazhang: then I realized that I should have selected the NVidia driver for notebooks, since this is an HP 8510w | 17:42 |
| bazhang | dksoba88, should install from within repos, not from nvidia site | 17:42 |
| Byron | I'm getting issues at the start with packages for the installation of the base system | 17:42 |
| dksoba88 | bazhang: the same thing happens if I kmenu->hardware drivers | 17:43 |
| bazhang | Byron, what issues | 17:43 |
| dksoba88 | bazhang: and then it shows the versions of nvidia drivers that are there, and I activate 185 | 17:43 |
| harolddong | I always have more problems with the one from the repos personally. the one from nvidia works like buttah for me | 17:43 |
| bazhang | dksoba88, and then install them? | 17:43 |
| Byron | bazhang: I don't recall now. I just told it to continue after so many failed packages such as the language pack, python and a few others | 17:44 |
| dksoba88 | bazhang: I click activate, it does some stuff, then I restart my computer and kdm won't start | 17:44 |
| bazhang | dksoba88, could you clarify 'does some stuff' ? | 17:44 |
| dksoba88 | bazhang: sure | 17:45 |
| dksoba88 | bazhang: KDE starts up with distorted colors and it's stretched in the vertical orientation, the part where the bar comes up | 17:45 |
| dksoba88 | bazhang: then the screen goes black, then it goes into a console, a few seconds later, the screen goes black again, and then right back into the console | 17:46 |
| bazhang | dksoba88, so have you checked the package manager to see if the drivers are actually installed? | 17:46 |
| Byron | bazhang: doing it over again. This is the corrupt file: file:///cdrom/pool/main/l/langpack-locales_2.9+cvs20090214-7_all.deb | 17:46 |

| bazhang | Byron, that is odd, in light of the successful disk integrity check | 17:47 |
| Byron | bazhang: Well, this is the new downloaded and burned CD. I'll do the integrity next. | 17:47 |
| bazhang | dksoba88, have you started up in safe mode/recovery mode? | 17:48 |
| dksoba88 | bazhang: well I'm currently using a default /etc/X11/xorg.conf file and kde opens fine | 17:48 |
| Byron | bazhang: file://cdrom/pool/main/p/python2.6/python2.6-minimal_2.6.2-0ubuntu1_i386.deb was corrupt | 17:48 |
| dksoba88 | bazhang: the only reason I need to install nvidia drivers is because glx isn't working | 17:48 |
| dksoba88 | bazhang: when I run glxgears I get: Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0". | 17:49 |
| dksoba88 | bazhang: I need glx to work for some special closed-source reseach software I'm trying to run | 17:49 |

| ryeenv | I'm creating an install on a 4GB thumbdrive, what is the minium size of /var I can get away with? | 17:51 |
| dksoba88 | bazhang: here is the display driver I'm trying to install: http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux_display_amd64_169.12.html | 17:52 |
| dksoba88 | bazhang: but the installer for that is asking for kernal-sources | 17:52 |
| dksoba88 | bazhang: I can paste the error message I get when I run that but it's kind of lengthy | 17:52 |
| bazhang | dksoba88, then install them? | 17:52 |
| Pici | ryeenv: Is there a reason why you even need to separate /var off into its own partition? | 17:53 |
| dksoba88 | bazhang: when I run the installer it can't find the sources | 17:53 |
| ryeenv | Pici: incase I run a service that fills up with log files | 17:54 |
| harolddong | do we ask about issues relating to the kde 4.3 rc in here or n #kubuntu-devel? | 17:54 |
| bazhang | dksoba88, no idea about going outside the package management system; I always install my nvidia drivers from within repos | 17:54 |
| ryeenv | pici: you think I should worry about it? | 17:54 |
| Byron | bazhang: New CD from the official site appears to be corrupt :( | 17:54 |
| dksoba88 | bazhang: I see | 17:54 |
| dksoba88 | bazhang: can I send you the error message somehow? | 17:54 |
| Pici | ryeenv: I think that if you fill up var with your own log files then other things may stop working as well, so I personally wouldn't parition it off. | 17:55 |
| bazhang | dksoba88, paste.ubuntu.com and give us the url so all can see | 17:55 |
| ryeenv | pici: thanks | 17:55 |
| dksoba88 | bazhang: is there an easy way to copy a text file to the clipboard from within the console? | 17:56 |
| bazhang | dksoba88, sure, install pastebinit | 17:57 |

| dksoba88 | bazhang: awesomeness, here you go: http://pastebin.com/f2b0b99a2 | 17:58 |

| Vinay-india | when ever i start adept add/remove | 18:02 |
| dksoba88 | bazhang: yes, let me try to remember | 18:02 |
| dksoba88 | bazhang: it asked to go online to find sources, didn't find any when I said yes | 18:02 |
| dksoba88 | bazhang: also asks for a EULA, etc | 18:02 |
| dksoba88 | bazhang: that's pretty much it | 18:02 |
| Byron | bazhang: I meant to say torrent. Sorry. The other ISO was fine, so I don't know what gives. | 18:02 |
| bazhang | dksoba88, it appears you answered no to the trying to find kernel sources one | 18:02 |
| dksoba88 | bazhang: but I just read that you need to run this at runlevel 1, so telinit 1, right? | 18:03 |
| dksoba88 | bazhang: but I was probably at run level 3 | 18:03 |
| gnata | looks like karmic i386 is fully broken : no premissions on /dev/null | 18:03 |

| dksoba88 | bazhang: yes, kdm was stopped, in the console | 18:03 |

| pm2 | Hi - I'm on Kubuntu 9.04, and I'm having a problem where in some text boxes when I type a black box appears near the cursor, or sometimes the entire box has a black bar accross it. Anyone know how to fix this? | 18:06 |
| pm2 | or would I be best just to downgrade to 8.04? | 18:09 |
| dark_rain | pm2: you could try upgrading kde to 4.3 rc1, but to be honest I've never seen anything like that. Do you have compositing enabled? | 18:11 |
| === basti2 is now known as basti | ||
| pm2 | dark_rain: I don't think so, how can I check? | 18:11 |
| dark_rain | systemsettings->desktop | 18:12 |
| ryeenv | is it best practice to use ext4 now? | 18:13 |
| pm2 | it says compositing type is opengl | 18:13 |
| dark_rain | It's much faster than ext3 | 18:13 |
| ryeenv | dark_rain, thanks | 18:14 |
| dark_rain | np | 18:14 |
| dark_rain | pm2: there should be a checkbox | 18:14 |
| dark_rain | pm2: enable desktop effects. is it checked or unchecked? | 18:14 |
| pm2 | checked | 18:14 |
| dark_rain | pm2: try unchecking it and pressing ok | 18:15 |
| pm2 | ok | 18:15 |
| dark_rain | pm2: any difference? | 18:15 |
| pm2 | that looks like it may have fixed it | 18:15 |
| dark_rain | pm2: it's probably your graphics card driver / configuration | 18:16 |
| harolddong | is akonadi broken in the 4.3 rc? | 18:16 |
| pm2 | I see - well, it will give me something to play with anyway -- thanks for your help | 18:16 |

| yoga | ka_: so if you click the "Open fiel dialog" then choose another directory, I get a wrong "Destination:" constructed by Kget, it will append the the pervious directory to the new directory. | 19:35 |
| yoga | ka_: for example: /home/user1/d1 becomes home/user1/new/d1 if I pick /home/user1/new in the "Open file dialog" | 19:36 |

| squid0 | hi. something strange happened to me. my computer froze, and I had to hard reboot. when it restarted, I saw a lot of messages from fsdisk (? the disk checking program) saying that there were orphaned files, which it fixed. most of those were icons used by plasma/kde. | 20:49 |
| squid0 | Now, many of my icons are blurred, ie. the smaller icons made bigger. this, I presume, is because the bigger icons cannot be found. how do I fix this? | 20:50 |

| rubyist | by default, does kubuntu install the drivers you need for xorg, or use the vesa driver? | 21:33 |
| rubyist | also, for sound, i've got a nvidia driver(nVidia Corporation MCP55), is this easy to find in the repositories? | 21:33 |
| Tm_T | rubyist: all open drivers | 21:33 |
| rubyist | Tm_T: how can i find out what driver xorg is using? | 21:33 |
| Tm_T | rubyist: one way is grepping /var/log/Xorg.0.log | 21:34 |
| rubyist | thanks | 21:34 |
| rubyist | X.org video driver : 5.0 | 21:35 |
| rubyist | what would that be? | 21:35 |
| rubyist | Module ABI versions.. | 21:36 |
| rubyist | i don't really get that, is it vesa 5.0, or ABI driver 5.0? | 21:36 |
| Tm_T | just some api/abi version I believe | 21:37 |
| chris_ | key | 21:37 |
| chris_ | hey | 21:37 |
| rubyist | Tm_T: Is "abi" like "vesa" ? I'd like to use a driver that takes the capabilites of my cards. | 21:38 |
| Tm_T | rubyist: no, hmm, "grep -i driver /var/log/Xorg.0.log" | 21:38 |

| Daviey | sdfg: oh, missunderstood.. it's an option in your installer where you install it | 22:10 |
| sdfg | Daviey: trying to install to slave from inside vist couse cant get cd installer to work | 22:11 |
| Daviey | sdfg: You can choose where to install, in the installer | 22:11 |
| Daviey | sdfg: Oh! How far along are you getting trying to install from cd? | 22:12 |
| sdfg | Daviey: get past the first gui interface then choose install and shortly after it hangs on me | 22:12 |
| sdfg | Daviey: making me mad too i hate vista | 22:13 |

| rysiek|pl | sdfg: well, anywhoo, check the CD for defects | 22:18 |
| rysiek|pl | sdfg: I am willing to bet that the cd is b0rked | 22:18 |
| sdfg | rysiek|pl: the disk is ok i used it on my pc | 22:18 |
| rysiek|pl | sdfg: sometimes some cd drives have better error correction than others | 22:18 |
| rysiek|pl | sdfg: just do check the cd in the cd drive you use to install it where you get problems | 22:19 |
| sdfg | rysiek|pl: it says its ok | 22:19 |
| rysiek|pl | sdfg: in that case, hwo do you go about installing? do you let the full LiveCD environment boot, or do you use the "Install" option in the boot menu? | 22:20 |
| sdfg | rysiek|pl: have tried both | 22:21 |
| sdfg | rysiek|pl: they both stop at the same point | 22:21 |
| rysiek|pl | sdfg: always fails at the same very moment? | 22:21 |
| rysiek|pl | ah | 22:21 |
| rysiek|pl | sdfg: I'd try a different install cd - alternate, or maybe a Xubuntu one? | 22:22 |
| sdfg | rysiek|pl: kk thnx | 22:22 |

| phh | rysiek|pl: *for google OS*, as everything will go through the browser anyway, it could be useful | 23:31 |
| kgee | rysiek|pl: Google is more likely to reinvent the wheel than make all the much-needed corrections, imho. I have a feeling if they use X they will use it as-is. if they make something different, it might be an improvement. Just my $0.02 | 23:31 |
| phh | but i think that if they do, they will run into big troubles about performance issues | 23:31 |
| rysiek|pl | you are prolly right | 23:31 |
| david__ | need help ubuntu wont boot | 23:31 |
| rysiek|pl | phh: not neccessarily | 23:31 |
| phh | rysiek|pl: uh ? | 23:32 |
| rysiek|pl | xorg got a whole lot better during last 2 years | 23:32 |
| phh | rysiek|pl: I mean if they *don't* use Xorg they will have problem | 23:32 |
| rysiek|pl | ah | 23:32 |
| rysiek|pl | right | 23:32 |
| phh | because they won't have accelerated drivers | 23:32 |
| rysiek|pl | yeah, I agree | 23:32 |
| phh | unless mmm | 23:33 |
| phh | yep, they could use something based on EGL, and pushing constructors release such drivers | 23:34 |
| Undead | help | 23:40 |
| kaddi | Undead please state your problem, otherwise nobody can help you | 23:41 |
| Undead | Sorry | 23:41 |
| Undead | im having a wireless problem | 23:41 |
| Undead | with my laptop | 23:41 |
| Undead | hello | 23:42 |
| phh | Undead: that's not really "stating your problem" | 23:42 |
| Undead | ok | 23:43 |
| Undead | Im using Kubuntu | 23:43 |
| Undead | its a fresh install | 23:43 |
| phh | without more details, we can give hum.. thousands différents answers | 23:43 |
| Undead | was using ubuntu | 23:43 |
| Undead | but had graphics problems | 23:43 |
| Undead | now my wireless wont connect | 23:43 |
| Undead | it sees my network | 23:43 |
| Undead | but it just asks for my wep key every 40 seconds | 23:43 |
| Undead | it worked fine on ubuntu | 23:44 |
| kaddi | Undead: you switched from ubuntu to kubuntu? open a terminal and type "nm-applet", you should get the same networkmanager you had with ubuntu. see if you can connect with it | 23:44 |
| Undead | not installed | 23:45 |
| Undead | is there a way to download the file and install it with usb? | 23:45 |
| kaddi | what are you using to connect to the internet? knetworkmanager? or the network-applet? | 23:46 |
| Undead | umm | 23:47 |
| Undead | it shows up as Network Manager .7 in hardware | 23:47 |
| kaddi | Undead type "knetworkmanager" into your commandline, does it recognize the command? | 23:50 |
| Undead | it doesnt | 23:50 |
| kaddi | ok | 23:50 |
| Byron | bazhang: I'm doing the install again. | 23:51 |
| Byron | LAMP, Mail and OpenSSH server options have been chosen. | 23:51 |
| kaddi | Undead if you still have your live-cd you should be able to install nm-applet from there, otherwise you can check out the name of the package in your ubuntu install | 23:53 |
| kaddi | and go to this site: http://packages.ubuntu.com/ to download the package from another machine | 23:53 |
| kaddi | copy the packages onto your system and install them using dpkg -i | 23:53 |
| Undead | ok | 23:55 |
| Undead | ill try that | 23:55 |
| kaddi | Undead if you don't have any luck with nm-applet either, try installing wicd, this is alternative networkmanager, which has been working great for me so far | 23:56 |
| Undead | ok | 23:56 |
| Undead | well | 23:56 |
| kaddi | wicd will uninstall networkmanager though, you can't have both, they are incompatible | 23:56 |
| Undead | i tried that | 23:56 |
| Undead | and when i went to install | 23:56 |
| Undead | it had an error | 23:57 |
| kaddi | what had an error? | 23:57 |
| Undead | the installer | 23:57 |
| kaddi | of what? | 23:57 |
| Undead | h/o | 23:57 |
| kaddi | what? | 23:57 |
| kaddi | how was the program called you could not install? | 23:57 |
| Undead | ok | 23:58 |
| Undead | i click on the wicd deb file | 23:58 |
| kaddi | ok | 23:58 |
| kaddi | so you tried installing wicd | 23:58 |
| Undead | and kpackagekit says "sorry, an error occured" | 23:58 |
| kaddi | and what message did it give you? | 23:58 |
| === GazzaK is now known as Gary | ||
| kaddi | do you still have the package? | 23:58 |
| kaddi | where did you get it? | 23:58 |
| Undead | i still have the deb file yea | 23:58 |
| Undead | launchpadillibrarian | 23:59 |
| Undead | spelling* | 23:59 |
| Undead | should i dl it again from a different site? | 23:59 |
