| kaddi | no, that should be ok | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| kaddi | do you know how to use a terminal? | 00:00 |
| Undead | yea | 00:01 |
| Undead | i was using it a while ago to try and connect through it | 00:01 |
| Byron | This is getting annoying. I can't seem to install Ubuntu Server 9.04 | 00:01 |
| kaddi | ok, go to the folder in which the deb-file is and type this "sudo dpkg -i nameofthe.deb" it should try to install the file. | 00:02 |
| kaddi | if it fails it should give a more detailed error message | 00:02 |
| kaddi | please post it here | 00:02 |
| Undead | uhh | 00:02 |
| Undead | how do i direct it to the folder | 00:02 |
| kaddi | ok, when you open the terminal, you find yourself in your home directory | 00:03 |
| Undead | ok | 00:03 |
| === amyd2007 is now known as amyfu | ||
| kaddi | use cd <foldername> to get into any folder that is in your home-folder | 00:04 |
| kaddi | use cd .. to move from a folder to the folder containing it. ( so if your are in /home/name/example and you do cd .. you will be in /home/name) | 00:04 |

| Byron | Installing LAMP, Mail and OpenSSH server options from the server CD of ubuntu 9.04 | 00:05 |
| Undead | ok | 00:06 |
| Undead | i did it | 00:06 |
| Undead | it says it conflicts with network manager | 00:06 |
| happy | what part are you having trouble at? | 00:06 |
| Undead | ok | 00:06 |
| Undead | question | 00:06 |
| happy | Byron: what part are you having trouble at? | 00:07 |
| Undead | i installed kubuntu inside windows using the iso i downloaded | 00:07 |
| Undead | i mounted using daemon | 00:07 |
| kaddi | you're using wubi? | 00:07 |
| Undead | i guess so | 00:07 |
| Undead | yea | 00:07 |
| Undead | so | 00:07 |
| Undead | if i uninstall kubuntu | 00:07 |
| Undead | install ubuntu and the install kde would it work? | 00:07 |
| Byron | happy: It loads tasksel and gets my packages, but won't install | 00:08 |
| Byron | It appears they are not available. | 00:08 |
| Undead | since all im doing is changing the desktop manager | 00:08 |
| Byron | happy: I'm in ubuntu-server | 00:08 |
| happy | Byron: next time, use alt+f4 to get more info on falures | 00:08 |
| happy | then alt+f1 to get back to normal | 00:09 |
| happy | what do you mean just stopped? red screen of death? | 00:09 |
| Byron | Yup | 00:09 |
| Undead | well kaddi i have to go for a bit are you going to be here much longer? | 00:09 |
| Byron | There appears to be 3 packages which are not being found | 00:09 |
| happy | interesting | 00:10 |
| Byron | libnewt0.52, ext2-modules and efi-modules | 00:10 |
| happy | ok | 00:10 |
| happy | and this is when it is installing the base system? | 00:10 |
| happy | is it connected to the internet when it does this? | 00:11 |
| Byron | Yes, it is connected. | 00:11 |
| happy | this was when it was "installing the base system"? | 00:11 |
| kaddi | Undead no I won't but other people will be. You could simply uninstall Netowrkmanager before installing wicd, but you should be able to do this with one command .. I'm lucking at the how right now | 00:11 |
| Undead | alrighty, if this doesnt work ill just go back to ubuntu | 00:12 |
| kaddi | Undead yeah sadly networkmanager has a lot of problems with kubuntu, but as said, wicd has been running great for me :) | 00:13 |
| Byron | happy: No. Select and install software | 00:13 |
| Undead | ok | 00:13 |
| Undead | whats the uninstall command | 00:13 |
| Undead | just "uninstall networkmanager? | 00:13 |
| happy | Byron: what you could do is install nothing extra, then install lamp and ssh manually | 00:14 |
| happy | it is not that hard to do | 00:14 |
| kaddi | maybe someone else can confirm: I think you need to remove more then just networkmanager, you want everything related to nm gone | 00:14 |
| Undead | ok | 00:14 |
| Undead | well i have to go | 00:14 |
| Undead | thanks for the help | 00:14 |
| Byron | happy: So just install Mail server? | 00:14 |
| kaddi | ok, see you | 00:15 |
| Undead | bye | 00:15 |
| happy | Byron: sure, I do not know how to install that :-) | 00:15 |
| Byron | happy: That failed, too | 00:16 |
| happy | hmm | 00:16 |
| BluesKaj | kaddi, it's not necessary to remove widget-network-manager, insalling wicd autoremoves it | 00:16 |
| Byron | Couldn't find package language-pack-en | 00:16 |
| kaddi | BluesKaj: thanks :) The thing I was trying to find out was if forcing install of wicd would have uninstalled nm, or if forcing install would try to install wicd with nm still present? | 00:17 |
| happy | Byron: I am not sure what is happening :-\ | 00:18 |
| Byron | the language pack is in the repos, but the installation doesn't seem to find it | 00:20 |
| Byron | All other packages are fine, except for these | 00:20 |
| happy | are you sure it found internet? | 00:20 |
| happy | do you have multiple network cards? | 00:21 |
| Byron | happy: What the deuce? I guess it just died because it's not able to ping google.com | 00:21 |
| Byron | No, just one card | 00:21 |
| happy | Byron: when you get internet, it should work | 00:21 |
| happy | Byron: you need to tell it to query dhcp again | 00:21 |
| Byron | happy: How do I do that? | 00:22 |
| happy | you have 2 choices | 00:22 |
| happy | 1. start over :-( | 00:22 |
| happy | 2. I think it is one of the options on the menu you get when it red screens | 00:23 |
| * happy has not messed with the debian installer in a while | 00:23 | |
| Byron | Nope, not an option for dhcp | 00:24 |
| happy | something having to do with networking? | 00:24 |
| Byron | I think I'm online now | 00:24 |
| Byron | What's another word for cave and lair? | 00:25 |
| happy | Byron: so try agian :-) | 00:25 |
| happy | den | 00:25 |
| Byron | that works | 00:25 |
| happy | why? | 00:26 |
| Byron | for the domain, do I have to put den.com or just 'den'? | 00:26 |
| happy | do you own den.com? | 00:26 |
| happy | I think your best bet is to leave domain blank | 00:27 |
| Byron | I don't think you can leave it blank | 00:27 |
| happy | I think so | 00:27 |
| happy | Byron: just leave it blank | 00:28 |
| Byron | ok | 00:28 |
| Byron | keeps failing | 00:30 |

| david_ | how do i install a geforce 6200 graphics card? | 00:41 |
| david_ | drivers first then install? | 00:42 |
| high-rez | just stick it in the machine ? | 00:42 |
| david_ | high-rez: when i do that it freezes | 00:42 |
| high-rez | Where at? Starting X? | 00:43 |
| david_ | high-rez: no at boot screen | 00:43 |
| high-rez | Like inside of grub or after grub? Inside of the linux splash screen? | 00:44 |
| david_ | high-rez: after grub | 00:44 |
| david_ | high-rez: thought maybe install drivers then try install? | 00:45 |
| david_ | anyone know y my system would freeze everytime i install my graphics card? | 00:47 |
| high-rez | Well I think the bootsplash will be framebuffer still. I assume you know for fact that this card is good? | 00:47 |
| david_ | high-rez: yes sir | 00:48 |
| david_ | high-rez: just took it out of my windows pc | 00:48 |
| high-rez | I don't know you could possibly try the driver - though if the machine is crashing at the splash screen it may not get that far. Perhaps try disabling the vesa frame buffer - and see how it behaves ones it starts X. | 00:50 |
| david_ | high-rez: how do i disable the vesa? | 00:51 |

| BluesKaj | yurimxpxman, it may not be your card , try installing wicd , it works much better thab the default on jaunty | 01:57 |

| high-rez | Yeah, I guess I sho9uld really rephrease my question. I'd like to udpate to 9.10 | 04:38 |
| DaskreeCH | high-rez: More or less asking that question disquialifies you from using 9.10 | 04:39 |
| DaskreeCH | or more explictly kubuntu+1 | 04:39 |
| murry | whys that? | 04:41 |
| high-rez | I've got plenty of experience with other distributions - i'm just trying to see where kubuntu 9.10 is at today. Not sure one needs a special badge of knowledge to try things out. | 04:41 |
| bazhang | high-rez, discussion of karmic in #ubuntu+1 | 04:42 |
| DaskreeCH | high-rez: If you just want to see where it's at today grab a daily Live CD | 04:42 |
| DaskreeCH | If you want to keep it installed it's going to break from hour to hour sometimes very badly If you don't know how to manage packages you'll basicaly have to wipe and reinstall | 04:43 |
| DaskreeCH | The alpha state of Ubuntu Distros is well deserved. Things break in magnificent manners | 04:43 |
| high-rez | right, thanks for the advice - i had no intention of playing with it on a production machine. | 04:44 |

| ubottu | Ce canal est en anglais uniquement. Si vous avez besoin d'aide ou voulez discuter en francais, merci de rejoindre #ubuntu-fr | 04:44 |

| bazhang | high-rez, please move discussion of karmic to #ubuntu+1 thanks | 04:45 |

| fg56lx | How do i get kubuntu to display a preview when i hover over a picture? | 05:52 |
| Okay | I accidentally deleted the bottom taskbar. how do i bring it back? | 05:56 |
| MTughan | I'm trying to update packages, but the last time, the OS froze up, and left perl-modules in a bad state. The dpkg command I got from the GUI says I should reinstall perl-modules, but I can't find how to do that in the dpkg man page. Is there a command for installation? | 05:56 |
| felipe__ | Now I installed kubuntu-desktop | 05:59 |
| happy | MTughan: sudo apt-get --reinstall install [package] | 05:59 |
| MTughan | Looks like it's going. Thanks happy. | 06:00 |
| happy | np | 06:00 |
| fg56lx | Okay: Right click on the desktop and click "add panel" | 06:01 |
| Okay | it's the default taskbar one | 06:01 |
| Okay | where it stores all the open/opened windows and applications | 06:01 |
| fg56lx | Okay: Right click on the panel and click "add widget" and add "task manager" | 06:03 |
| Okay | got it! Thanks a lot fg56lx | 06:04 |
| fg56lx | No problem. | 06:04 |
| === ghost is now known as Guest53894 | ||
| Okay | fg56lx, do you happen to have one of those Mac os x like docks for kubuntu? | 06:06 |
| fg56lx | Okay: I don't. | 06:07 |
| fg56lx | Okay: If you're trying to find one, I believe Compiz Fusion(or w.e they are calling themselvs these days) has one. | 06:08 |
| Okay | I will look into it fg56lx | 06:09 |
| Okay | thanks again man | 06:09 |
| ner0x | Question, there are four blocked packages, anyone want to tell me why? :) | 06:12 |
| ner0x | Also, which firefox package will install 3.5 for me? | 06:13 |
| happy | ner0x: they are probably kernel upgrade | 06:14 |
| ner0x | happy: They all are, but why are they blocked? | 06:14 |
| happy | I never figured that out. I think it is because they want to install other packages | 06:14 |
| fg56lx | ner0x: You can make them update/install if you do it from a terminal. | 06:14 |
| happy | I overrid it in the terminal | 06:14 |
| ner0x | fg56lx: Alright, but are they suggested to be updated? | 06:15 |
| fg56lx | I don't see why they wouldnt be. | 06:15 |
| === kb is now known as Guest64753 | ||
| ner0x | I'm new to *package management* what application do I use to override? | 06:16 |
| fg56lx | ner0x: "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" | 06:18 |
| ner0x | That's a command line package manager? | 06:19 |
| fg56lx | Yes. | 06:19 |
| ner0x | Does it auto upgrade? | 06:19 |
| ner0x | Or does it give me the list of freatures? | 06:19 |
| fg56lx | Yes, dist-upgrade will uodate all packages. | 06:19 |
| ner0x | So it's a script? | 06:19 |
| ner0x | Will aptitude do the same thing? | 06:21 |
| happy | ner0x: apt-get is pretty much the cli package manager | 06:21 |
| happy | (dpkg is actually the package manager. But it does not do the cool stuff like check online for updates) | 06:21 |
| happy | ner0x: I think aptitude can also do a dist upgrade | 06:22 |
| ner0x | I believe so too. I'll have to read the docs. | 06:23 |
| ner0x | My clock is never right, how do I fix that on kubuntu? lol | 06:23 |
| ner0x | Also, which firefox package do I choose for 3.5? | 06:23 |
| agathodaimon | hey guys am new to ubuntu just installed it cople of days ago and the only think so far that i dont understand is how do i install .tar.bz2 files can anyone help me plz ? :) | 06:23 |
| happy | ner0x: have you tried left or right clicking on the clock? | 06:24 |
| ner0x | happy: Yeah, it's on the correct timezone, just the wrong time. | 06:24 |
| happy | !compile | agathodaimon | 06:24 |
| ubottu | agathodaimon: Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first) | 06:24 |
| agathodaimon | thanks | 06:25 |
| ner0x | happy: aptitude does install the kernel updates, I'm doing it now. :) | 06:25 |
| happy | ok | 06:25 |
| agathodaimon | so u can update the kernal aswell by typing sudo apt-get upgrade right? | 06:26 |
| happy | ner0x: to fix the clock, go into system settings | 06:26 |
| happy | then time and date | 06:26 |
| happy | agathodaimon: I don't think so | 06:26 |
| happy | aptitude upgrade does it (not sure) | 06:26 |
| ner0x | agathodaimon: In aptitude type "shift+u" or "U" to set it to upgrade. Then press "g" to commence all the changes. | 06:28 |
| happy | ner0x: aptitude is a cli program | 06:28 |
| happy | that does not make sense :-\ | 06:28 |
| agathodaimon | how can i get it? | 06:28 |
| ner0x | happy: Well that's how you do it. | 06:28 |
| ner0x | agathodaimon: Aptitude? | 06:28 |
| agathodaimon | yup | 06:28 |
| ner0x | Should be installed as part of the basesystem | 06:29 |
| agathodaimon | ner0x: wer do i find it ? | 06:29 |
| ner0x | agathodaimon: Ever used linux before? | 06:29 |
| agathodaimon | ner0x: no i just said am new to it coz i got sick of windows ( and i really dont want to go back to it) | 06:30 |
| happy | agathodaimon: typing sudo apt-get dist-upgrade in a konsole should work | 06:30 |
| agathodaimon | happy: thanks m8 | 06:30 |
| ner0x | agathodaimon: What happy said will work. If you want more management open up a shell "konsole" and just type "aptitude" | 06:30 |
| ner0x | agathodaimon: And get used to reading docs, you'll be doing it a lot. :) | 06:31 |
| happy | ner0x: wow, I have never used aptitude like that | 06:31 |
| ner0x | happy: But it works correct? | 06:32 |
| agathodaimon | ner0x: i am all the time i downloaded 50 book, its my second day today on linux and i managed to install 200 updates, learned how to install .bin use perfectly wine - am running already 5 windows games etc :) | 06:32 |
| ner0x | Blah, use windows for games. :) | 06:32 |
| ner0x | Use linux for everything else. :) | 06:32 |
| happy | ner0x: I have no idea how to use it. So I will not recommend it. If it works, it works. | 06:33 |
| ner0x | happy: Well it did work. :) | 06:33 |
| ner0x | I'll be right back, odd how kubuntu makes you reboot to use the new kernel. | 06:33 |
| agathodaimon | ner0x: sorry m8 got sick and tired of it, not to start talking bout viruses too... so microsoft doesnt exist for me anymore :) | 06:33 |
| ner0x | agathodaimon: Yeah, viruses are a pain. | 06:33 |
| ner0x | agathodaimon: But you can forget about those. :) For the most part. | 06:34 |

| yoga | If I want to install Firefox 3.5, which package should I install? | 06:39 |
| happy | yoga: firefox-3.5 | 06:43 |
| agathodaimon | i still dont understand hwo to install .tar.bz2 files :S | 06:46 |
| noaXess | agathodaimon: you can't directly install .tar.bz2, you need first extract them... in dolphin just doubleklick it.. and i think in it there is the source of the package.. and then you need to compile it.. | 06:47 |
| happy | agathodaimon: do you know anything about the vmd line? | 06:47 |
| noaXess | !source | 06:47 |
| ubottu | You can easily fetch a package's source with apt-get. See: http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/apt-howto/ch-sourcehandling.en.html | 06:47 |

| agathodaimon | guys i read all these websites yestruday too :S | 06:53 |
| === hemathor__ is now known as hemathor | ||
| happy | agathodaimon: what are you trying to install? | 06:54 |
| agathodaimon | happy: neverball atm | 06:54 |
| agathodaimon | happy: and after i wanna install glibc so i can intall ati cataclys for my graphics card | 06:55 |
| happy | agathodaimon: type sudo apt-get insall neverball in a terminal | 06:55 |
| happy | agathodaimon: for someone who can not compile neverball, they may be difficult... | 06:55 |
| agathodaimon | happy: but isnt there like a row of codes i should use for installing those files? | 06:56 |
| agathodaimon | happy | 06:56 |
| happy | agathodaimon: ubuntu has a package for neverball. that means you do not need to compile it. All you need to do is tell ubuntu you want neverball | 06:57 |
| agathodaimon | happy: coz i tryied ./configure and etc and just didnt work | 06:57 |
| happy | so sudo apt-get install neverball will work | 06:57 |
| agathodaimon | happy: yeah thanks alot it works :), but how am gonna install other .tar.bz2 files? | 06:57 |
| happy | agathodaimon: depends on what it is | 06:58 |
| Cylon7 | okay i found my own answer guys, in case someone else asks... you can use apt-key from the command line, there are instructions on each launchpad.net ppa page | 06:58 |
| happy | agathodaimon: most software does not require you to compile it. Ubuntu has most of the stuff you need | 06:59 |
| agathodaimon | happy: yeah but i cant find glibc version 2.2 or 2.3 and XOrg from 6.7 till 7.1 in .deb that i can automatically install i found only .tar.gz and .tar.gz2 | 07:00 |
| happy | agathodaimon: what do you need them for?! | 07:01 |
| happy | those are very advanced | 07:01 |
| happy | there is no way anyone could step you through compiling those. Neverball would be alot easier :-) | 07:02 |
| agathodaimon | so i would be able to install ATI full drivers for linux | 07:02 |
| happy | agathodaimon: playing with both of those is like juggling mines. What are the chances you survive? | 07:03 |
| agathodaimon | happy: have any sugestion on wat book or wat should read to get me to be able to compile or install wat ever i need to do there | 07:03 |
| agathodaimon | happy: wat do u mean? | 07:03 |
| happy | agathodaimon: first of all. Do you need the drivers? Second, can you install them using the restricted drivers manager? | 07:04 |
| happy | agathodaimon: I mean beginners do not play with xorg or glibc (especially the last one) | 07:04 |
| agathodaimon | well to play games yeah its helps alot, and i tryed installing thought there and i needed to reinstall ubuntu coz it simply didnt work | 07:05 |
| happy | messing with them is asking for trouble, and you do not know the basics yet | 07:05 |
| happy | agathodaimon: did you try the restricted drivers manager? | 07:05 |
| agathodaimon | yup | 07:05 |

| gmv | is there any solution to mount it as CD? | 09:01 |
| DarkArc | are you on windows | 09:01 |
| gmv | i want to instal kubuntu desktop on gnome | 09:01 |
| DarkArc | then use the iso to usbdrive thing | 09:01 |
| DarkArc | it's installed on gnome by default | 09:01 |
| gmv | DarkArc: | 09:02 |
| gmv | i'm on ubuntu | 09:02 |
| DarkArc | that's why i said use the usb tool :P i can't remember where it is | 09:02 |
| gmv | I mounted it with "iso mount" but It cannot be added as source | 09:02 |
| DarkArc | system > Administration > USB startup... | 09:03 |
| DarkArc | you can "burn" it to a usb pen | 09:03 |
| gmv | oh thanks | 09:03 |
| DarkArc | anytime | 09:04 |
| ioan | gmv -why didn't you installed kde directly from gnome without downloading the iso ? | 09:04 |
| ioan | you can have both gnome and kde | 09:05 |
| gmv | ioan: because i downloaded iso, why i must download it again? | 09:05 |
| ioan | i see | 09:05 |
| DarkArc | it might still be a better idea to do it their way... command line and type "sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop" | 09:06 |
| DarkArc | gmv ^ | 09:06 |
| gmv | DarkArc: i know...but it beat my bw | 09:07 |
| ioan | i installed gnome and xfce on a kubuntu pc using that way | 09:07 |
| gmv | ioan: how is xfce? | 09:08 |
| ioan | faster | 09:08 |
| gmv | faster than gnome? | 09:08 |
| ioan | yes | 09:08 |
| DarkArc | it's the fastest :P but it has the least functionality... doesn't it | 09:08 |
| ioan | indeed | 09:09 |
| ioan | i took me a while to get used with the new look of kde that's why i choosed to have some alternatives | 09:10 |
| DarkArc | to be honest i don't like the new KDE... there's too much... but i'm still using it | 09:10 |
| gmv | but i love gnome | 09:10 |
| gmv | it's....it's hot | 09:11 |

| DarkArc | you should be able to go into your package manager and use it to install the packages yeah | 09:43 |
| DarkArc | but it's designed to be used from boot or windows | 09:43 |
| DarkArc | gmv ^ | 09:45 |
| gmv | DarkArc: is not a way to add iso to repo? | 09:45 |
| DarkArc | yeah in system > Admin > Software sources | 09:46 |

| gmv | DarkArc: it must be mounted? | 09:47 |
| DarkArc | yeah | 09:47 |
| DarkArc | BUT | 09:47 |
| DarkArc | you may aswell do it the way the other person already said | 09:47 |
| DarkArc | in the console | 09:47 |

| DarkArc | yes | 09:48 |
| gmv | no, i cannot add iso to repo:( | 09:48 |
| DarkArc | you'll need to insert your admin password (or your password) | 09:49 |
| gmv | i do. | 09:49 |
| gmv | i'm system admin | 09:49 |

| DarkArc | you don't need it the kubuntu stuff is in the online repo | 09:51 |
| gmv | DarkArc: i want to install from kubuntu-alternative iso. | 09:51 |
| gmv | online repo beat BW | 09:51 |
| DarkArc | if you want to run the multiple desktops the only thing you can do is install the kubuntu-desktop packages... it doesn't matter where they're from really although the ones on the repo will be more uptodate | 09:53 |
| gmv | DarkArc: i found the solution: sudo synaptic --add-cdrom /media/iso/ | 10:02 |
| gmv | "iso" is the mounted .iso file name | 10:02 |
| DarkArc | i figured... but if you install it will still use the online repo (it looks for the most up to date) | 10:02 |
| gmv | DarkArc: it downlaods new pakages that it needs | 10:04 |
| gmv | but use older one from iso | 10:04 |

| The-Jesus | hello... sorry, but is this a general help channel? | 13:29 |
| kaddi_ | Gargoyle76: have you tried to install on command line? press ctrl+alt+f2 and you'll get a command line login. Can you login on that? If so try to start "sudo /etc/init.d/kdm restart" to start the gui. maybe you'll get a error message that'll help | 13:30 |
| hemalpandya | Hi I need some help booting from a USB drive | 13:30 |
| kaddi_ | The-Jesus: this is the official support channel for kubuntu :) So any problem you have with kubuntu will be attended here, if your problem isn't related to kubuntu we aren't the right people to talk to ;) | 13:30 |
| hemalpandya | I am hoping the experts here can help me identify why my desktop now gives me Boot error when i try to boot from USB drive | 13:31 |
| hemalpandya | it used to boot. then i started an install, realized i don't have free partition on the hard-disk so decided to reboot so i can free up space | 13:31 |
| hemalpandya | the reboot worked, but konsole was showing just a blank screen so i rebooted again | 13:32 |
| The-Jesus | thanks kaddi, just ditched windows on all of but one my pcs (dual boot though) about a week ago so i'm a total noob. | 13:32 |
| hemalpandya | now all I get is Boot error | 13:32 |
| hemalpandya | i know the usb drive is ok because i am able to boot another laptop with it | 13:34 |
| hemalpandya | please help | 13:34 |
| The-Jesus | problem is, i can't read commercial dvd movies - can't even mount the drive, all i get is 'no medium found' | 13:34 |
| kaddi_ | hemalpandya: I have never done this before, so I can't help, did you google the error, maybe you'll find something? | 13:35 |
| DarkArc | the-Jesus: not a kubuntu issue but if you install the restricted extras you should be able to play movies and mp3's etc | 13:35 |
| The-Jesus | oh, srry about that, where would be the place to ask? i have installed the restricted extras and libdevcss but it just refuses to mount the dvd. Home made dvds work just fine | 13:37 |
| kaddi_ | The-Jesus: which player are you using? | 13:37 |
| The-Jesus | vlc | 13:37 |
| hemalpandya | kaddi_: i didn't think boot error is a good search term. but i just checked and don't see anything useful | 13:37 |
| kaddi_ | The-Jesus: have you tried other players? | 13:37 |
| tsimpson | !dvd | 13:38 |
| The-Jesus | dragon, same result | 13:38 |
| ubottu | For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also https://help.ubuntu.com/9.04/musicvideophotos/C/video.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats | 13:38 |
| kaddi_ | hemalpandya: Oh i thought you were just circumscribing the message you got as "a boot error". If you actually only get "boot error", I agree that google won't get you far | 13:38 |
| hemalpandya | i searched for Ubuntu boot error, one page that says live CD boot error raised my hoped but it turned out to be about general boot errors, not the message "boot error" | 13:38 |
| FreeFox | whats the difference between this and ubuntu? | 13:38 |
| DarkArc | ubuntu uses the gnome desktop while kubuntu uses kde (looks better but is a little slower) | 13:39 |
| FreeFox | ohh | 13:39 |
| FreeFox | slower? dang i was thinking faster | 13:39 |
| hemalpandya | kaddi_: yes. all i get is a Message "Boot error", sorry i wasn't quite clear earlier | 13:39 |
| tsimpson | KDE is not slower than Gnome, hasn't been for a long time | 13:40 |
| FreeFox | KDE is way slower for me | 13:40 |
| tsimpson | they both preform about the same these days | 13:40 |
| The-Jesus | thanks a lot, will check those links... | 13:40 |
| hemalpandya | funny thing is i /used to/ boot | 13:40 |
| DarkArc | My laptop seems a little slower (not by much)_ since i switched to KDE but not much | 13:40 |
| tsimpson | it depends on your hardware and specific options/functions enabled, but they are generally the same | 13:40 |
| kaddi_ | hemalpandya: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=7326218 | 13:41 |
| kaddi_ | maybe this can help? | 13:41 |
| hemalpandya | kaddi_:checking | 13:41 |
| slow-motion | hi | 13:42 |
| hemalpandya | kaddi_: i followed the similar http://www.pendrivelinux.com/usb-kubuntu-904-persistent-install-windows as other poster. i doubt there is a problem with the files on drive since i was able to boot previously | 13:44 |
| kaddi_ | hemalpandya: can you boot that pc normally otherwise? does it run with a live-cd? my guess is that the usb is trying to start the half finished install or looking for files it can't find. can you delete what you where installing and start over? | 13:48 |
| hemalpandya | kaddi_: i cannot boot from hard-drive right now and the cd rom drive is also hosed | 13:49 |
| hemalpandya | kaddi_: i agree, this seems the effect of half-finished install | 13:50 |
| sancho21_ | How to browse my bluetooth phone in KDE 4 | 13:50 |
| sancho21_ | so that I can upload my file into specific directory on my phone | 13:51 |
| sancho21_ | What package should I use? | 13:51 |
| kaddi_ | hemalpandya: the easiest thing would be to purge that partition and restart from scratch. in my opinion. | 13:53 |
| kaddi_ | don't know how a usb-boot works, can you tell it to show the install-options again? | 13:53 |
| hemalpandya | kaddi_: i can do that, but to do that i first need to boot :-) | 13:53 |
| hemalpandya | kaddi_: just like a CD, it shows initially a meny with Run Persistently, Install, etc | 13:54 |
| kaddi_ | hemalpandya: I think I really don't get your problem. lol. "boot error" is a message you get from where? your bios? ubuntu? | 13:54 |
| hemalpandya | kaddi_: but that is when it boots. right now it comes back with Boot error before getting there | 13:54 |
| hemalpandya | kaddi_: yes, i guess its from bios | 13:54 |
| kaddi_ | what is the boot-order in bios? | 13:55 |
| hemalpandya | kaddi_: but i asked it specifically to boot from usb | 13:55 |
| hemalpandya | kaddi_: when it goes to the HD to boot it gives me that windows your last shutdown was not normal message | 13:55 |
| kaddi_ | so you are sure it's booting from usb, but it doesn't contact the usb stick? | 13:56 |
| hemalpandya | kaddi_: yes, Boot USB Devices first is enabled | 13:57 |
| hemalpandya | kaddi_: the blue light on the USB glows, so i think it contacts the USB. but i can't be sure | 13:58 |
| hemalpandya | kaddi_: it booted ! | 14:00 |
| ActionParsnip1 | hemalpandya: how about selecting it from the F12 boot screen | 14:00 |
| kaddi_ | hemalpandya: now, why would it do that? | 14:00 |
| kaddi_ | :p | 14:00 |
| hemalpandya | kaddi_: i changed the USB emulation type from Auto to all hard disk (or something) | 14:00 |
| hemalpandya | kaddi_: i also diabled booting from optical media | 14:01 |
| hemalpandya | kaddi_: one of them did the trick | 14:01 |
| kaddi_ | hehe, ok :) I'd never suggested that, so it's good you found that on your own. lol | 14:02 |
| Machtin | hey guys. i just wondered whether there's replaygain for JuK? and maybe a last.fm-plugin? | 14:02 |
| hemalpandya | kaddi_: you made me rake my brain, told me the error was from bios. i was just staring at the darn monitor so far | 14:03 |
| hemalpandya | kaddi_: now i gotta go free up space, and install. thanks a lot for your help. have a good day and good bye | 14:03 |
| kaddi_ | hemalpandya: good luck with your install :) | 14:07 |
| The-Jesus | after a cup of coffee and two cigs, gotta reboot. If anything happens i'm afraid i'll be back (this was the most helpful channel - thanks a lot). | 14:08 |
| kaddi_ | you can even come back if nothing happesn ;) | 14:09 |

| partubun | Simple questions on manual partitioning single disk (all for ubuntu) for install. I just want swap root and home. Which do I make logical? which do I make primary? In what order do I do it? | 14:37 |
| partubun | PS I read the help files. The answer to these 3 questions were not clear to me. | 14:38 |
| tsimpson | partubun: you don't need to make any logical, you can have, at most, 4 primary partitions | 14:38 |
| DarkArc | they can all be primary... | 14:38 |
| tsimpson | the order is also not important | 14:39 |
| partubun | swap primary too? | 14:39 |
| DarkArc | yes | 14:39 |
| DarkArc | pointless making logicals with so few partitions | 14:39 |
| partubun | okay | 14:39 |
| DarkArc | Swap being the first partiton would technically increase efficiency but only by nanoseconds | 14:40 |
| partubun | I might add one more partition for multimedia. Good idea? | 14:40 |
| DarkArc | your home drive would be multimedia? | 14:41 |
| partubun | yeah | 14:41 |

| MarcoPau | rgreening: just remove PPA and re apt-get upgrade? | 15:22 |
| rgreening | not sure waht best way to downgrade is... | 15:23 |
| rgreening | MarcoPau: did you try apt-get install -f to ensure no broken packages during upgrade? | 15:24 |
| MarcoPau | didn't notice them, but lemme give it a try | 15:24 |
| rgreening | and also if there's any kde packages held back (i.e. you need to apt-get dist-upgrade instead of just upgrade) | 15:25 |

| MarcoPau | rgreening: can I use my old ~/.kde (it acually still comes from old kde3) or do I better start with a new one? | 15:36 |
| homy | Please? | 15:38 |
| Morydd | rgreening: I'm not sure I understand how to do that. To start with there are about 30 instances of PrintScreen there, and it seems my options are "Default: None" or "Custom: Input..." | 15:39 |
| rgreening | MarcoPau: during upgrade it would automigrate. So, theoretically, you could use old. I prefer fresh though... | 15:39 |

| dwarder_1 | DT: | 17:27 |
| DT | thanks | 17:27 |
| BluesKaj | !rpm | 17:27 |
| ubottu | RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous and unsupported) | 17:27 |
| dwarder_1 | why my amarok doesn't play .pls files (internet radio) | 17:28 |
| dwarder_1 | it looks like playing, but i can't hear anything | 17:28 |
| DT | ok...how about bundle files? | 17:29 |
| BluesKaj | dwarder_1, rpm files usually have an ubuntu equivalent if you look for it | 17:29 |
| dwarder_1 | BluesKaj: huh | 17:29 |
| dwarder_1 | ? | 17:29 |

| BluesKaj | sorry DT | 17:31 |
| DT | np | 17:32 |
| dwarder_1 | DT: i mean maybe boundle is a binary file | 17:32 |
| BluesKaj | DT , the rpm file will usually have a dpkg (deb) file equivalent but mostlty they are compressed in gz or bz2 | 17:33 |
| dwarder_1 | DT: do you want to install vmware tools or something? | 17:33 |

| fetusbubble | first you "cd" to the directory the tar is in | 20:59 |
| agathodaimon | one sec please | 20:59 |
| agathodaimon | fetusbubble: yeah am set on desktop | 21:00 |
| fetusbubble | okay, the tar file is in the desktop? | 21:00 |
| kalp | nothin to do with kubuntu, but a hardware question: i hav 1gb ram, usually around 0.6gb ram is used and max 0.8 gb is used. i find my system a bit slow, will adding ram help? | 21:00 |
| kalp | beyong 0.8gb, swap is used | 21:01 |
| agathodaimon | fetusbubble: yes its on desktop | 21:01 |
| fetusbubble | go to your terminal and cd to your desktop | 21:01 |
| fetusbubble | usually cd ~/Desktop/ | 21:02 |
| agathodaimon | agathodaimon@agathodaimon-desktop:~$ (i said am there already :) | 21:02 |
| agathodaimon | fetsububble: wat do i do next | 21:03 |
| fetusbubble | what format is it? bz2, gz? | 21:03 |
| agathodaimon | fetsububble: well i want to install a file with .tar.gz extension and with .tar.bz2 | 21:05 |
| fetusbubble | okay | 21:05 |
| fetusbubble | you have to untar them first | 21:05 |
| kalp | nothin to do with kubuntu, but a hardware question: i hav 1gb ram, usually around 0.6gb ram is used and max 0.8 gb is used. i find my system a bit slow, will adding ram help? | 21:05 |
| agathodaimon | kk how do i do that? | 21:05 |
| kalp | beyond 0.8gb, swap is used | 21:05 |
| fetusbubble | untarring bz2: tar -xvjf [file] | 21:06 |
| agathodaimon | kalp: how fast is ur cpu? | 21:06 |
| fetusbubble | and untarring gz is tar -xvzf [file] | 21:06 |
| kalp | 1.6 ghz | 21:06 |
| vitovt | <kalp> More ram will help. But better add line vm.swappiness=10 to /etc/sysctl.conf | 21:06 |
| kalp | citovt; what does that do? | 21:07 |
| agathodaimon | fetusbubble: bash: untarring: command not found | 21:07 |
| fetusbubble | nono | 21:07 |
| fetusbubble | the command is "tar" | 21:07 |
| agathodaimon | ? | 21:07 |
| vitovt | Normally ubuntu start use swap when 60% of ram uses. You set to use swap only when 90% of ram uses (10% free) | 21:07 |
| fetusbubble | to untar bz2, use the options -xvjf.. so the command would be "tar -xvjf [filename] | 21:08 |
| agathodaimon | tried that to ages ago but doesnt work look | 21:08 |
| fetusbubble | to untar gz, use -zxvf | 21:08 |
