| Dragnslcr | tahirh- if you don't trust the user not to break anything, you shouldn't give them privileges to break anything | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| llutz | tahirh: user hardly need full root-access, so limit it to your needs | 00:00 |
| llutz | tahirh: "man sudoers" gives you good examples how | 00:01 |
| llutz | to do it | 00:01 |
| tahirh | but they need root access just to install programs? | 00:01 |
| tahirh | very difficult ... | 00:01 |
| llutz | tahirh: users don't have to install programs outside $HOME | 00:02 |
| Dragnslcr | tahirh- sudo has pretty fine-grained control, so you can limit what commands any given user can run | 00:02 |
| tahirh | how? | 00:02 |
| llutz | tahirh: "man sudoers" gives you good examples how | 00:02 |
| tahirh | how do they install programs inside $HOME with say aptitude? | 00:03 |
| llutz | tahirh: they cannot and they don't have to | 00:03 |
| tahirh | llutz: please elaborate - you said they could install programs inside $HOME? | 00:06 |
| llutz | tahirh: not-systemwide-programs | 00:06 |
| tahirh | how can they install say "Google Earth" inside $HOME | 00:07 |
| llutz | download that crap from google, run installer, ready | 00:07 |
| llutz | tahirh: or: ask administrator to install it systemwide | 00:08 |
| tahirh | so they can install programs as a normal user but not system wide. I thought the prog always asked for a passwd to install. | 00:09 |
| Dragnslcr | apt does, because it installs the programs system-wide | 00:09 |
| tahirh | so as long as they download it to $HOME, they can install it in $HOME? | 00:10 |
| Dragnslcr | There may be a way to install packages to $HOME, but I'm not certain. Google probably knows, though | 00:10 |
| tahirh | without the need for a passwd. So they just need to find a website to download the prog from then run ./ and make ... | 00:10 |
| llutz | tahirh: lots of stuff comes as tar.gz/.run/.sh and can be installed locally. | 00:11 |
| Dragnslcr | And it would probably be a pain to keep updated | 00:11 |
| Dragnslcr | I think asking an admin to install it for them would be best. That way it will stay updated with the rest of the system | 00:11 |
| tahirh | llutz: I will let them know. local as in their desktop where they have rwx permissions? | 00:11 |
| tahirh | i have admin rights but I am new to linux! | 00:12 |
| Dragnslcr | Are you administering desktops for users? | 00:14 |
| tahirh | yes | 00:14 |
| Dragnslcr | Are you getting paid for it? | 00:14 |
| tahirh | but i am new | 00:14 |
| tahirh | yes | 00:14 |
| Dragnslcr | Then I'd say it would be best to have users ask you to install programs for them, that way you can keep track of what they're installing | 00:15 |
| tahirh | Dragnslcr: okay, a hassle though wish they could have sudo rights but too dangerous | 00:16 |
| Dragnslcr | Yeah, but look at this way. If they accidentally sudo rm the whole disk, you're the one that has to fix it | 00:16 |
| luis_ | hello i need help, there is a error than is pissing me off at the moment of turning off the pc: just at the moment off shuting off, kubuntu goes to black screen and presents this: Unable to itirate IDE devices | 00:17 |

| luis_ | move* | 00:17 |
| Dragnslcr | You could limit what they can run with sudo, e.g. only allow KPackageKit, but I don't know if I would trust "average" users that much | 00:17 |
| tahirh | or sudo rm -r * the whole filesystem on the whole mounted network! | 00:17 |

| pafnow | yamishi: ask... | 00:28 |
| Xcelon | Hello, is this a help channel for kubuntu? | 00:30 |
| pafnow | Xcelon: yes, whatelse ? | 00:31 |
| Xcelon | ah, good there is life here | 00:31 |
| Xcelon | i have a question concerning a recent install of kubuntu | 00:31 |
| Xcelon | i ran the live cd on my laptop and everything seemed to work fine, but after doing the complete install my wireless fails to see any wireless networks | 00:32 |
| Xcelon | im not sure if it detected or installed my wireless card properly, or if there is some other problem | 00:33 |
| Xcelon | where can i see a list of installed hardware? | 00:34 |
| pafnow | # iwconfig | 00:34 |
| pafnow | #lspci | 00:35 |
| Xcelon | where is that? more info please, im new to linux | 00:35 |
| yamishi | pafnow: a week ago i was able to play avi videos but since my little sister uninstalled some things on my computer i cant play any video | 00:35 |
| pafnow | Xcelon: you have to type this in a terminal | 00:36 |
| Xcelon | ok thanks, ill try it | 00:36 |
| pafnow | yamishi: what software do u use ? | 00:36 |
| yamishi | pafnow: u mean player? | 00:36 |
| pafnow | ye | 00:36 |
| pafnow | s | 00:36 |
| yamishi | pafnow: i've tried kplayer, dragon player and kaffeine | 00:37 |
| pafnow | yamishi: try vlc | 00:37 |
| pafnow | yamishi: u will need no codec | 00:38 |
| yamishi | Pafnow: oh that one too and it just plays the sound | 00:38 |
| Xcelon | wow, where is terminal hidden at? | 00:38 |
| pafnow | in kubuntu its the program named konsole | 00:38 |
| pafnow | alt+f2 | 00:39 |
| pafnow | konsole | 00:39 |
| pafnow | enter | 00:39 |
| pafnow | yamishi: strange behaviour... | 00:39 |
| Xcelon | ok ty | 00:39 |
| pafnow | yamishi: have u tried smplayer ? | 00:39 |
| yamishi | pafnow: no | 00:39 |
| pafnow | yamishi: maybe it could work | 00:40 |
| yamishi | pafnow:i'll try | 00:40 |
| pafnow | yamishi: i use it, it's the same spirit as vlc | 00:40 |
| pafnow | but with more functionnalities | 00:40 |
| yamishi | pafnow: ok i'm installing it now | 00:41 |
| Xcelon | ok, iwconfig says wlan0 access point not associated, 0 link quality and signal level | 00:42 |
| pafnow | ok | 00:42 |
| pafnow | so your card is detected | 00:42 |
| Xcelon | cool, so it is something else? | 00:43 |
| pafnow | yes | 00:43 |
| pafnow | how do u proceed for the list ? | 00:44 |
| Xcelon | you want all the info? | 00:44 |
| Xcelon | IEEE 802.11bg ESSID:"" | 00:45 |
| pafnow | no | 00:45 |
| pafnow | u use kde4 ? | 00:45 |
| Xcelon | i downloaded the latest version of kubuntu from the website, so whatever ver of KDE that is | 00:46 |
| pafnow | ok | 00:47 |
| pafnow | the fourth | 00:47 |
| Xcelon | i just noticed that under the lspci t shows my wireless card | 00:47 |
| pafnow | so u have in the task bar an applet to connect to the networks (wifi or eth) | 00:47 |
| pafnow | do u see it ? | 00:47 |
| Xcelon | it shows my wireless card | 00:47 |
| Xcelon | yes | 00:48 |
| yamishi | pafnow: it said that the version i installed is obsolete and won't work well and didn't even played the audio | 00:48 |
| Xcelon | i see the wlan interface tab but it says unavailable | 00:48 |
| pafnow | yamishi: my god! | 00:48 |
| pafnow | what a mess | 00:49 |
| pafnow | ! | 00:49 |
| Xcelon | lol | 00:49 |
| pafnow | Xcelon: maybe u have desactivated the wiif | 00:49 |
| pafnow | with a switch on your computer | 00:49 |
| yamishi | pafnow: i hate my lil sister =_= | 00:49 |
| pafnow | or via a small button in the previous panel | 00:50 |
| Xcelon | um i tried the key combo for activating the wireless but there is no diff | 00:50 |
| pafnow | i have to go | 00:51 |
| pafnow | there is a way to configure an hidden network | 00:51 |
| pafnow | if u know the ssid of yours maybe it is a solution | 00:51 |
| pafnow | good luck | 00:51 |
| pafnow | ++ | 00:51 |
| Xcelon | like i said it worked fine with the live cd | 00:51 |
| Xcelon | thanks for the help anyways | 00:52 |
| Xcelon | im gonna try to reboot and see what that does | 00:53 |
| Xcelon | how many of you people are afk anyways? lol | 00:54 |
| yamishi | i think that there are just 3 people that are not AFK | 00:55 |
| Xcelon | haha, thats crazy | 00:55 |
| Xcelon | they are all bots or something | 00:56 |
| aaron_ | how hard would it be to compile a new version of the intel driver? | 00:57 |
| Xcelon | seems crazy to me that the live cd handled my wlan just fine but the full install wont | 00:57 |
| Xcelon | no idea, sounds complicated to me :) | 00:58 |
| aaron_ | impossible complicated or hit your head against the keyboard a few times complicated? | 00:59 |
| aaron_ | 'cause I'm already at the latter stage :-( | 00:59 |
| aaron_ | actually, I'm thinking about upgrading to karmic in a few days when alpha3 comes out | 00:59 |
| aaron_ | they have newer versions there | 00:59 |
| Xcelon | lol | 01:00 |
| Xcelon | i may have to go back to pclinuxos, it seemed to be more user friendly | 01:00 |

| Alumin_ | I just installed Kubuntu Jaunty on a machine with two monitors...it's using both but it's displaying the same thing on both screens. I went to the Display control panel and it shows both screens, but they're stacked on top of each other. How can I get the system to use the monitors independently (one large desktop spanning both screens)? | 01:29 |
| Alumin_ | if it makes any difference, this is with an ATI card that only has one actual output plug, and some kind of splitter cable connected to it that the monitors actually connect to | 01:29 |
| darthanubis | Alumin_: good lucky with that. Get a real video card, and I'm not trying to insult you. | 01:30 |
| darthanubis | !info xandr | 01:31 |
| ubottu | Package xandr does not exist in jaunty | 01:31 |
| Alumin_ | darthanubis: I know, it's cool...trust me, if it'd been up to me, there'd be NVIDIA hardware in this box...it's a work machine | 01:31 |
| Alumin_ | !info xrandr | 01:32 |
| ubottu | Package xrandr does not exist in jaunty | 01:32 |
| darthanubis | Alumin_: if it had been Nvidia you probably would not have needed any help:) | 01:33 |
| afeijo | what do you guys use to mount a iso file? | 01:33 |
| darthanubis | afeijo: a right-click | 01:34 |
| Alumin_ | darthanubis: nope, my previous box with a GeForce worked OOTB | 01:35 |
| afeijo | darthanubis: hehe, well mine isnt working, some problem with my Archieve Mounter, what is that prog name to me try reinstall thru apt-get ? | 01:35 |
| Alumin_ | afeijo: mount -o loop -t iso9660 file.iso /mnt/point | 01:35 |
| === dharman_away is now known as dharman | ||
| darthanubis | afeijo: have you installed ubuntu/kubuntu restricted packages? | 01:35 |
| Alumin_ | darthanubis: the strange part is, it sees and can address both screens | 01:35 |
| afeijo | yes | 01:35 |
| Alumin_ | like, if I set the "desktop rotation" on one of the screens, I can rotate them independently | 01:36 |
| darthanubis | because you should be able to just click the iso and it will mount automagically | 01:36 |
| Alumin_ | and I can configure the refresh rates independently, although that's a bit of a non-issue since they're identical hehe | 01:36 |
| afeijo | Alumin_: sweet, that command worked :) | 01:36 |
| Alumin_ | also...the graphical representation of the screens, I can see the text "DVI-0" _below" the "DVI-1" | 01:37 |
| Alumin_ | afeijo: yeah, that's the "by hand" way...it's a lot nicer to use the auto-mounting features, but in a pinch that'll work | 01:37 |
| Alumin_ | don't forget to umount it once you're done, HAL won't because it won't find it in its list since it didn't mount it | 01:37 |

| Rhetorik | Wondering if someone can help me. I have a Dell Inspiron 1525 laptop, and I just installed the newest kubuntu. My problem is that I have no sound at all | 03:00 |
| DaskreeCH | !sound | 03:00 |
| ubottu | If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ARTS is running, by going to K Menu -> System Settings -> Sound System and making sure "Enable the sound system" is checked. If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 | 03:00 |
| Rhetorik | I see nothing called "sound system" under system settings | 03:02 |
| Rhetorik | I see nothing called "sound system" under system settings | 03:02 |
| Rhetorik | err :/ | 03:02 |
| DaskreeCH | try Multimedia | 03:03 |
| Rhetorik | nope | 03:04 |
| DaskreeCH | Serpardum: try a hexeditor | 03:04 |
| DaskreeCH | Rhetorik: open Kmix and make sure that things are not muted | 03:05 |
| Rhetorik | Already did, mute is off on everything | 03:05 |
| Rhetorik | and everything is maxed | 03:06 |
| DaskreeCH | OK What sound card do you have ? | 03:07 |
| Rhetorik | It says Intel Corporation 82801H HD Audio Controller | 03:09 |
| Rhetorik | ICH8 family | 03:10 |
| Serpardum | DaskreeCH: I wasn't the one who needed that information, but thanks for the suggestion | 03:14 |
| DaskreeCH | Serpardum: Ah ok re reading convo | 03:15 |
| DaskreeCH | hereAndThere: try sudo lshw -C Video | 03:15 |
| Rhetorik | Apparently kubuntu has a problem with this specific audio device? | 03:16 |
| DaskreeCH | Rhetorik: Perhaps | 03:16 |
| Rhetorik | lame | 03:17 |
| DaskreeCH | indeed but lets attack the problem can you run speaker-test -Dplug:surround51 -c6 -l1 -twav | 03:19 |
| Rhetorik | I did | 03:22 |
| Rhetorik | got a bunch of stuff | 03:22 |
| Rhetorik | all gibberish to me pretty much | 03:24 |
| Alumin_ | is it possible to configure KPackageKit to use a local mirror instead of one of the predefined ones? | 03:28 |
| Rhetorik | The sound doesn't work properly with current Linux distributions. You will need to manually install the latest development ALSA modules (at least version 1.0.16rc2) for full sound support. | 03:38 |
| Rhetorik | from linlap.com | 03:38 |
| Rhetorik | Ok, how would I go about doing that | 03:39 |
| Rhetorik | Sorry if I sound like an idiot but this is kinda annoying | 03:39 |

| Arv3n | Hello. | 04:27 |
| Arv3n | I'm thinking about installing Windows again, can anyone describe to me the basic process of doing this? | 04:27 |
| aaron_ | Arv3n: put a Windows disc in and restart your computer. There will be on screen prompts for you to follow | 04:28 |
| aaron_ | if you're trying to dual-boot, though, the only way I know to do it is to install windows, then linux, since the windows install tends to get rid of any other operating systems | 04:28 |
| Arv3n | Exactly. | 04:29 |
| Arv3n | I am trying to dual boot. | 04:29 |
| Arv3n | im trying to stay as "legal" as possible in this Kubuntu install. | 04:29 |
| Serpardum | Arv3n: do you hav emore than one partion/disk? | 04:29 |
| Arv3n | only one partition. | 04:29 |
| Arv3n | well, two.. i went with the default "Erase everything" | 04:30 |
| Serpardum | well, then you can only install 1 os unless you go with a virtual machine | 04:30 |
| Serpardum | how big is your disk? | 04:30 |
| Arv3n | well i only need it for a game | 04:30 |
| Arv3n | 500gb | 04:30 |
| Serpardum | try wine | 04:30 |
| Arv3n | and this game works in virtualbox | 04:30 |
| Serpardum | wine runs some games well | 04:30 |
| Arv3n | wine doesn't work, im trying to run maplestory | 04:30 |
| Serpardum | ahh | 04:30 |
| Arv3n | it has hackshield now | 04:30 |
| Serpardum | won't hackshield work with virtualbox? | 04:31 |
| Arv3n | but.. it works in virtualbox until 5-6 minutes after running it gives me a hacking execution tool detected | 04:31 |
| Serpardum | hmm... | 04:31 |
| Arv3n | maplestory runs very fast in virtualbox | 04:31 |
| Arv3n | better than vmware, but the problem with vmware is i have to get workstation which is $100+ i think | 04:31 |
| Serpardum | have you tried the latest version of virtualbox | 04:31 |
| Arv3n | Yes. | 04:31 |
| Arv3n | 3.0.2 | 04:31 |
| Serpardum | 3.0.2beta I believe | 04:31 |
| Arv3n | no i thought it was stable | 04:31 |
| Serpardum | is it now? | 04:31 |
| Arv3n | but that doesn't matter, yes that's what I'm running. | 04:31 |
| Arv3n | i just installed it today, whatever the latest is. :> | 04:32 |
| Serpardum | I don't know if I'd isntall windows for just 1 game. I run a few windows games . | 04:32 |
| Arv3n | i dont want to | 04:32 |
| Serpardum | I run kubuntu in virutalbox | 04:32 |
| Arv3n | but im addicted to ms.. since beta | 04:32 |
| DaskreeCH | Rhetorik: Hi Got help? | 04:33 |
| Serpardum | well, 50gb should be enough to install windows and maplestory, no? | 04:33 |
| Arv3n | 500gb. | 04:33 |
| DaskreeCH | Arv3n: As Legal as possible ? | 04:34 |
| Serpardum | yes, which is your total | 04:34 |
| Arv3n | you said 50gb >: | | 04:34 |
| Serpardum | I'm thinking you coudl make a smaller partition just to isntall windows to, 50gb | 04:34 |
| Arv3n | DaskreeCH, yeah.. i bought my codecs this time :) | 04:34 |
| Arv3n | $25. | 04:34 |
| Serpardum | I'm not sure how much windows and maplestory take up | 04:34 |
| Arv3n | no illegal software, music, videos, etc on this computer | 04:34 |
| Arv3n | Serpardum, I was running everything on a 20gb virtualbox partition | 04:34 |
| Arv3n | plenty of space left | 04:34 |
| Serpardum | okay, so make a 20gb partition for windows | 04:34 |
| DaskreeCH | Arv3n: congrats | 04:35 |
| Arv3n | but if im gonna install xp i might as well install ALL my games on it, rite. | 04:35 |
| Arv3n | uc wut i did thar | 04:35 |
| DaskreeCH | Rhetorik: Sorry for the delay. Ask for help in #alsa they have a pretty good knowldege of soudcard issues | 04:35 |
| HowardTheDuck | hey. how would i make kubuntu able to go in fullscreen running it as a guest os in Virtualbox? | 04:35 |
| Arv3n | Unless somebody knows of a good rpg/mmorpg that runs in wine, crossover, or natively | 04:35 |
| Arv3n | just something to keep me busy. | 04:36 |

| yamishi | and it works with mplayer -vo x11 /path | 08:21 |
| yamishi | but not opening any player and then opening the file | 08:22 |
| yamishi | oh | 08:22 |
| yamishi | and also if i want to open the mplayer in the graphical menu it crashes | 08:23 |
| DaskreeCH | with what error? | 08:23 |
| yamishi | well it just closes the window | 08:24 |
| yamishi | it doesn't shows the "normal" crash windowd when an applications crashes | 08:25 |
| yamishi | and when opening a file | 08:25 |
| yamishi | it just plays the audio | 08:25 |

| sgrover | any php coders out there? apt-get install phpunit installs version 3.2.16. It has a bug where the bootstrap file is not loaded. How do I get a more up to date version of phpunit? | 09:35 |
| sgrover | (on kubuntu Jaunty, of course) | 09:35 |
| DaskreeCH | sgrover: PPA ? | 09:36 |
| sgrover | ppa? dunno what you mean by that. Pear? Not installed.. (apparently) | 09:36 |
| DaskreeCH | !ppa | 09:36 |
| ubottu | With Launchpad's Personal Package Archives (PPA), you can build and publish binary Ubuntu packages for multiple architectures simply by uploading an Ubuntu source package to Launchpad. See https://help.launchpad.net/PPAQuickStart. | 09:36 |
| sgrover | hmm... seems overly complex to achieve my target of creating unit tests... But thanks for the link, I'll check it out. | 09:40 |
| DaskreeCH | sgrover: you don't need to do your own if someone else has a phpunit PPA you can just use their packages | 09:53 |
| sgrover | DaskreeCH: thanks. Haven't seen one yet (but not sure if I'm searching Launchpad correctly). | 09:54 |
| DaskreeCH | sgrover: honestly I just search google the package I want and PPA | 09:55 |
| skierpage | Running Kubuntu 9.04, I inserted a DVD and can't examine it, though Dolphin shows its volume name. | 09:55 |
| sgrover | But, I did get 3.3.17 installed - by doing it the non-apt way... :) (basically by following the instructions for installing PHPUnit, but that needed php-pear installed and updated.) | 09:55 |
| DaskreeCH | skierpage: What's on the DVD ? | 09:56 |
| DaskreeCH | sgrover: That works as well you just have to manage it yourself | 09:56 |
| skierpage | It's a movie. So I followed https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/PlayingDVDs#Ubuntu%209.04%20%28i386,%20amd64%29 and installed libdvdread4. Still no player. | 09:56 |
| EricInBNE | running multimon setup, when I start eclipe it starts on the wrong monitor. Even when I have it set correctly in Application setttings in the Window Manager | 09:56 |
| sgrover | true, but was hoping to avoid that... oh well, nothing new for me really.. :) Thanks for the moral support! | 09:57 |
| EricInBNE | anything I can do? | 09:57 |
| skierpage | Should I install VLC or Kaffeine? VLC is at 1.0 but KPackageKit only has 0.99. ??! | 09:57 |
| skierpage | Progress... you have to quit and restart Dolphin to see the contents of a DVD after installing libdvdread4. | 09:59 |
| DaskreeCH | skierpage: Try VLC | 10:00 |
| DaskreeCH | skierpage: :-) of course you do | 10:01 |
| skierpage | DaskreeCH Thanks. I see http://www.videolan.org/vlc/download-ubuntu.html wants me to add another PPA to get 1.0... Is there some reason the default KPackageKit has an out-of-date version of VLC? | 10:02 |
| DaskreeCH | !latest | 10:05 |
| ubottu | Packages in Ubuntu may not be the latest. Ubuntu aims for stability, "latest" may not be a good idea. Post-release updates are only considered if they are: fixes for security vulnerabilities, high impact bug fixes, or unintrusive bug fixes with substantial benefit. See also !backports. | 10:05 |
| sgrover | you'll never find the absolute latest in the default repositories - unless the absolute latest has been the ONLY version for more than a few months.... | 10:05 |

| bigbrovar | hi guys am new to kubuntu (being an ubuntu users) i cant seem to find a way to make bluetooth work :-( | 10:06 |
| bigbrovar | is it just me or is this a known bug | 10:07 |
| === podstavsky_ is now known as podstavsky | ||
| skierpage | DaskreeCH + sgrover, thanks for the explanation. It's odd though; AmaroK or VLC proudly announce the *released* new version, but Kubuntu doesn't offer it. Obviously I don't expect development versions from the normal repositories. | 10:09 |
| DaskreeCH | Kubuntu normally has the latest Amarok | 10:09 |
| sgrover | *released* versions take time to be considered "stable" | 10:10 |
| sgrover | Or more to the point, it takes time for someone to notice/create a package for it.. :) | 10:10 |
| skierpage | sgrover, good point. But the problem with running an old version is if you find a problem the devs immediately ask you to try to reproduce on something more recent 8-/ | 10:10 |
| sgrover | yep. Cuz the bugs are usually already fixed. | 10:11 |
| bigbrovar | hi guys am new to kubuntu (being an ubuntu users) i cant seem to find a way to make bluetooth work :-( | 10:11 |
| sgrover | I just ran into that myself. The version of a package installed by Jaunty is more than a few generations older than the current stable version. So the bug I ran into was already addressed. | 10:11 |
| sgrover | SOOOOOO, I had to find a way to upgrade the version. But this usually breaks some things - like that package is no longer auto-updated by Apt... | 10:12 |
| sgrover | If you need the cutting edge stuff, then you should be looking at a source based distribution, but that's not as "friendly" to the general public. | 10:13 |
| bigbrovar | i guys i just want to know if bluetooth works on jaunty kubuntu .. so i know its not just my system .. am about to install blueman on my kubuntu with i really wouldnt want to do unless my bluetooth problem is a known issue | 10:17 |
| skierpage | bigbrovar , I don't have Bluetooth on my PC but I notice my pretty default Kubuntu 9.04 install has kdebluetooth and bluez packages installed according to KPackageKit. Do you have those installed? | 10:17 |
| bigbrovar | skierpage: i have those installed .. | 10:18 |
| bigbrovar | skierpage: i guess i will have to install gnome blueman then | 10:18 |
| DaskreeCH | hi bigbrovar you posted on the Kubuntu forums didn't you? | 10:21 |
| skierpage | bigbrovar, running kbluetooth4-devicemanager and/or kbluetooth4-inputwizard doesn't help you out? | 10:23 |
| bigbrovar | skierpage: hope .. reading about it now it seems bluez upgrade in jaunty completely broke the bluetooth stack for kubuntu | 10:24 |
| bigbrovar | skierpage: the only solution is install a gnome bluetooth app :-( | 10:24 |
| bigbrovar | skierpage: everytime i try to send a file to my device via bluetooth using the kubuntu bluetooth tool i get this org.openobex.Error.NotFound | 10:30 |

| Mamarok | dd0012: if you are a coder you can look at the source code, else you will have to wait till a developer fixes it | 12:06 |
| Mamarok | bernardlychan: in the system settings, advanced tab | 12:06 |
| bernardlychan | thanks mamarok | 12:06 |
| Mamarok | bernardlychan: yaw :) | 12:07 |
| bernardlychan | then what do i do? (soz, am n00b) | 12:07 |
| bernardlychan | desktop theme details? | 12:07 |
| Mamarok | no, you have to go to the advanced tab of the system settings first | 12:07 |
| Mamarok | then choose the option 'Login Manager' | 12:08 |
| bernardlychan | ? | 12:08 |

| Mamarok | 9.04 then? | 12:08 |
| bernardlychan | o actually... i have ubuntu with kde | 12:09 |
| Mamarok | bernardlychan: you must have admin rights to change the kde splash | 12:09 |
| bernardlychan | how do i do this (thanks for this btw) | 12:09 |
| Mamarok | bernardlychan: be aware that this can break things, so be careful | 12:09 |
| Mamarok | where did you get that theme from? | 12:09 |
| bernardlychan | kde-look.org | 12:10 |
| bernardlychan | so how do i change permissions mamarok? | 12:10 |
| Mamarok | bernardlychan: which theme is it? You should only install it from the system settings normally | 12:10 |
| Mamarok | bernardlychan: go to a konsole, then type 'kdesudo systemsettings', without the ' | 12:11 |

| bernardlychan | yea | 12:17 |
| bernardlychan | then i've browsed and selected my theme | 12:17 |
| Mamarok | podstavsky: I was a teacher at some point in my life :) | 12:17 |
| bernardlychan | and it says that it is not valid | 12:17 |
| Mamarok | bernardlychan: well, not all themes work, let me see... | 12:18 |
| podstavsky | Mamarok: "my nose" is not bad as I thought :D | 12:18 |
| Mamarok | bernardlychan: that is not a splash screen, but a KDM theme | 12:21 |
| Mamarok | you were talking about a splash theme | 12:21 |
| bernardlychan | yea, how do i install a splash screen? | 12:21 |
| Mamarok | that is not a splash theme, read what I said, it is a KDM theme | 12:21 |
| bernardlychan | i know. but i would like to install a splash theme, not a KDM theme. | 12:22 |
| Mamarok | ok, moment | 12:22 |

| === ubuntu is now known as inSane | ||
| Mamarok | bernardlychan: the same way I just told you, but not all proposed splash screens do work | 12:26 |
| bernardlychan | what do u mean? | 12:26 |
| Mamarok | bernardlychan: well, applications, screens, etc on kde-apps.org and kde-look.org are third party, so sometimes things don't work and you will have to talk to the developer there | 12:28 |
| bernardlychan | ok | 12:28 |
| bernardlychan | thanks so much | 12:28 |
| bernardlychan | one last question.... | 12:28 |
| Mamarok | bernardlychan: the splash screen is in the first tab of the system settings, you do not need sudo rights for that | 12:28 |
| bernardlychan | how do i install a .desktop theme? | 12:28 |
| Mamarok | in 'Apperance' | 12:28 |
| bernardlychan | thanks | 12:28 |
| Mamarok | bernardlychan: go to the desktop, right click and choose desktop settings | 12:29 |

| hippo | Howdy! | 14:51 |
| hippo | Friendly bunch here! :-( | 14:52 |
| _abbenormal | yes they are | 14:52 |
| hippo | I can tell. One says hello, and everybody is just head over heals to reply. | 14:53 |
| _abbenormal | some are not even up and around yet | 14:54 |
| hippo | But they are logged in and have joined the channel. | 14:54 |
| _abbenormal | yes but like me im working on a issue and if someone has an answer they will just say something and i will get it | 14:55 |
| _abbenormal | me sometimes im loged in and just not at the keyboard | 14:55 |
| hippo | I'm trying to find a solution to a seemingly simple issue, too. FoIP... seems to be no software out there. | 14:56 |
| hippo | At least not for Linux. | 14:56 |
| _abbenormal | http://www.softlinx.com/products/replixfax_linux.html | 14:57 |
| hippo | I don't join a channel and then leave the keyboard unattended, unless I have to go to the restroom, or grab a bite or drink. | 14:57 |
| hippo | Thanks. I'll check it out. | 14:58 |
| _abbenormal | http://www.google.com/search?q=FoIP+linux&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=com.ubuntu:en-US:unofficial&client=firefox-a | 14:58 |
| _abbenormal | im in a lot of channels so im here a lot but its better to be loged in and look back to find answers | 14:58 |
| hippo | Sounds reasonable. I ususally try to stick to one channel, since I'm working on other things as well. :-) | 14:59 |
| _abbenormal | yup it can be hard at times but any that im in i use those or help in them as i can | 15:00 |
| Mamarok | hippo: don't expect tons of answers on a Sunday anyway | 15:01 |
| hippo | I'm actually looking for a softphone, that can handle VoIP and FoIP via SIP, but address a regular fax (T.38) | 15:01 |
| Mamarok | hippo: well, doesn't that link help? | 15:02 |
| hippo | Thanks for the heads-up. | 15:02 |
| _abbenormal | hey Mamarok | 15:02 |
| Mamarok | hi _abbenormal | 15:02 |
| hippo | A little. I'm working through the links. | 15:02 |
| hippo | Hello Mamarok! | 15:02 |
| Mamarok | hippo: also, saying hi to everyone who comes in a channel with hundreds of users and some onther hundreds coming in ang going on a daily basis is not a good idea, especially not in a support channel, it creates unnecessary noise | 15:04 |
| Mamarok | hi hippo | 15:04 |
| Mamarok | it's different in a social channel, but this is for support only | 15:04 |
| hippo | That would explain it. I rarely hit support channels. Only when I can't find what I need, after more than an hour of searching. | 15:07 |
| _abbenormal | lol an hour | 15:07 |
| hippo | And usually I find what I'm looking for. | 15:07 |
| _abbenormal | sorry | 15:07 |
| _abbenormal | i have hours and days of searching for some of my issues | 15:07 |
| hippo | I found articles, but still can't find the softphone for VoIP and Foip through sip-providers. | 15:08 |
| Mamarok | I don't look for hours, but my search ability has improved over the years, usually I find stuff within minutes | 15:08 |
| hippo | Same here. That's why I'm so frustrated, that I can't find it. :-( | 15:09 |
| _abbenormal | im not that lucky | 15:09 |
| Mamarok | hippo: have a look at www.voip.info.org | 15:09 |
| hippo | USusally I find answers within 10 - 15 Minutes. In some extreme cases it may take a little longer, but never more than an hour. | 15:09 |
| Mamarok | third search result for "Fax over IP Linux" | 15:10 |
| hippo | voip.info.org seems to redirekt to http://www.searchreinvented.com/?dn=info.org&pid=5POCKN6CN | 15:13 |
| Mamarok | oops, voip-info.org, my bad | 15:13 |
| ioan | http://www.xs4all.nl/~mfnboer/twinkle/index.html | 15:13 |
| ioan | take a look at that | 15:13 |
| hippo | http://www.voip-info.org/ - got it :-) Thanks | 15:14 |
| hippo | Twinkle is capable of VoIP, but no option to fax. :-( | 15:14 |
| ioan | aah -i see -i'll do another search hippo | 15:15 |
| Mamarok | hippo: especially CallWeaver, it's an Asterisk fork | 15:16 |
| Mamarok | uses T38 fax | 15:16 |
| noschang | i from brazil | 15:17 |
| noschang | and you ? | 15:17 |
| === ubuntu is now known as lordmeka | ||
| Mamarok | noschang: do you have a support question? | 15:17 |
| noschang | yes | 15:17 |
| noschang | Theme Desktop Gnome | 15:18 |
| hippo | Hi ioan - thanks. I'll give it a try. | 15:18 |
| hippo | Hi noschang. | 15:18 |
| alex_ | hello | 15:18 |
| alex_ | i want to ask someone over here for some help! | 15:19 |
| hippo | Hi alex | 15:19 |
| alex_ | i want to transform one partition of my pc | 15:19 |
| noschang | 15:19 | |
| noschang | I do not speak English very well | 15:19 |
| Mamarok | noschang: if you are using Gnome, you should ask in #ubuntu, this is a KDE support channel | 15:19 |
| Mamarok | !br | noschang | 15:19 |
| ubottu | noschang: Por favor, use #ubuntu-br para ajuda em português. Obrigado. | 15:19 |
| alex_ | it is in ext3 extension | 15:20 |
| Mamarok | alex_: what do you want to do exactly? | 15:20 |
| alex_ | and i want to be ntfs or fat32 | 15:20 |
| noschang | 15:20 | |
| noschang | I ask sorry in ubuntu, thanks | 15:20 |
| Mamarok | noschang: no problem | 15:20 |
| alex_ | i have an kiwi with upgrade to ubuntu 9.04 | 15:20 |
| Mamarok | alex_: why do you want to put a Linux partition to ntfs? | 15:21 |
| alex_ | i want to make a partition in ntfs or fat32 format | 15:21 |
| alex_ | nope | 15:21 |
| alex_ | not for linux | 15:21 |
| alex_ | for other operating sistem | 15:21 |
| alex_ | i need another os on my pc | 15:21 |
| alex_ | and my optic unity has crash down | 15:22 |
| alex_ | :P | 15:22 |
| Mamarok | alex_: you can use parted to change the formating of a partition, but it should not be mounted | 15:22 |
| noschang | brasileiro ? | 15:22 |
| Mamarok | !parted | 15:22 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about parted | 15:22 |
| alex_ | ups it is mounted | 15:22 |
| Mamarok | !qparted | 15:22 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about qparted | 15:22 |
| Mamarok | hm, where's that factoid | 15:23 |
| alex_ | and the disk management didn't let me to do this | 15:23 |
| alex_ | i'm not the root | 15:23 |
| Dragnslcr | !info partitionmanager | 15:23 |
| ubottu | partitionmanager (source: partitionmanager): partition manager for KDE. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.0.0~beta1a-0ubuntu2 (jaunty), package size 527 kB, installed size 1968 kB | 15:23 |
| alex_ | and on my pc didn't exist the root | 15:23 |
| JuhazOne | yo. i'm using kde3... for some reason, kde seems to use the random screen saver if i set it to use the blank one | 15:23 |
| Mamarok | alex_: you will have to unmount that partition first, then you can reformat it | 15:23 |
| JuhazOne | i think i've had this problem before, but i can't remember how i fixed it back then | 15:24 |
| Mamarok | sudo umount /partitionname will do the trick | 15:24 |
| JuhazOne | any ideas? | 15:24 |
| alex_ | tell me the codes for terminal pls | 15:24 |
| hippo | Alex, try GParted. It's available through the packetadministration | 15:24 |
| alex_ | ok | 15:24 |
| Mamarok | alex_: make sure you don't use it though, else this will not work | 15:24 |
| alex_ | man, it is monted | 15:24 |
| alex_ | with /home | 15:24 |
| Mamarok | hippo: partitionmanager is the KDE forntend | 15:24 |
| Mamarok | frontend even | 15:24 |
| hippo | Ah! Learned something new. Thanks! | 15:25 |
| Mamarok | alex_: well, then you can't do that, if you remove your /home your computer will not work anymore | 15:25 |
| Mamarok | alex_: and you need it for Linux | 15:25 |
| alex_ | so lets do else | 15:25 |
| Mamarok | unless you want to remove Linux completly, then you can just install Windows, it will remove it | 15:25 |
| alex_ | the home is big | 15:25 |
| alex_ | 110 Gb | 15:25 |
| alex_ | ok | 15:26 |
| alex_ | but how i do this | 15:26 |
| hippo | I'm going to do some more research. Thanks for the help! Have a nice day/evening. | 15:26 |
| alex_ | cause i dond tahe optical unit:P | 15:26 |
| ioan | efax-gtk hippo -for faxing | 15:26 |
| alex_ | no dvd or cd working unit | 15:26 |
| alex_ | the linux have some fdisk on it | 15:27 |
| alex_ | to "self destruct " the linux | 15:27 |
| Mamarok | alex_: well, there is still the possibility to install a VM for Windows | 15:27 |
| alex_ | yes man i understand | 15:27 |
| alex_ | but u know to share the folders between the windows on Vm and the linux, it's very hard | 15:28 |
| ioan | i try virtual box | 15:28 |
| ioan | and i have windows inside linux | 15:29 |
| Mamarok | alex_: sharing folders between Windows and Linux computers is done with Samba, in a VM you do this differently | 15:29 |
| Mamarok | !vm | 15:29 |
| ubottu | There are several solutions for running other operating systems (or their programs) inside Ubuntu, while using the native CPU as much as possible: !QEmu (with !KQemu), !VirtualBox, !VMWare, as well as !WINE and !Cedega for Windows applications | 15:29 |
| Mamarok | try Virtualbox | 15:29 |
| doorsman | Hi ! I'd like to know how to install updates that are blocked (mostly kernel updates) | 15:29 |
| alex_ | i have already virtual box | 15:29 |
| Mamarok | doorsman: if they are blocked you can either wait to get the dependency resolved, or do a sudo apt-get dist-upgrade in a konsole | 15:30 |
| alex_ | so another think | 15:30 |
| doorsman | what is dist-update do ? | 15:30 |
| alex_ | how i do a bootable ubuntu usb | 15:31 |
| alex_ | cauze i reinstall ubuntu and repartiton the harddisk | 15:31 |
| alex_ | can u help me with thi? | 15:31 |
| alex_ | this? | 15:31 |
| Mamarok | alex_: if <ou have a regular Kubuntu CD it should be bootable | 15:32 |
| alex_ | yep man | 15:32 |
| alex_ | but i have an working optical unit | 15:33 |
| Mamarok | alex_: without a CD drive though you can use an USB stick, if your BOIS allows <you to boot from | 15:33 |
| alex_ | no f....king cdor dvd wr | 15:33 |
| alex_ | yes it alow | 15:33 |
| doorsman | Mamarok, alex_ question was how to do one on Kubuntu | 15:33 |
| alex_ | yep | 15:33 |
| alex_ | this is the question | 15:33 |
| alex_ | how to do one | 15:34 |
| Mamarok | !usb | 15:34 |
| ubottu | For information about installing Ubuntu from USB flash drives, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick - For a persistent live USB install, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent | 15:34 |
| Mamarok | alex_: see above ^^ | 15:34 |

| alex_ | i know.... i'm like a pi in the ass | 15:39 |
| Mamarok | alex_: see the link I gave you above, there is everything you need | 15:40 |
| johnnymac | hello, does anyone know how I can see the 'nice' level of all processes running | 15:51 |

| tuanpham | hi guy | 15:52 |
| tuanpham | i am new comeer | 15:52 |

| Mamarok | tuanpham: this is in a special archive, are you comfortable with experimental installation? | 15:54 |
| Mamarok | tuanpham: patience, give us time to type an answer :) | 15:54 |
| johnnymac | can 'top' or ps show nice levels? | 15:54 |
| tuanpham | thank Mamarok | 15:54 |
| Mamarok | johnnymac: well, it can, but ksysguard is easier to use, it's gui application | 15:54 |
| Mamarok | johnnymac: also, htop is much better than top | 15:55 |
| johnnymac | I want to use the terminal though | 15:55 |
| Mamarok | then install htop | 15:55 |
| johnnymac | and a default terminal app | 15:55 |
| Mamarok | tuanpham: if you are a beginner, you shouldn't sue the PPA installation | 15:56 |
| Mamarok | use* | 15:56 |

| tuanpham | do you mean change to soure to PPA Mamarok | 15:56 |

| daeron | hi everyon | 16:20 |
| daeron | i've got a problem | 16:20 |
| daeron | i had to reinstall kubuntu yesterday | 16:20 |
| daeron | but now | 16:20 |
| daeron | when i'm trying to enable the hardware drivers' support for nvidia gpu | 16:20 |
| daeron | by the tool 'drivers hardware' | 16:21 |
| daeron | i can't enable the video compositing | 16:21 |
| daeron | i don't why | 16:21 |
| daeron | coz it recognize the right right | 16:21 |
| daeron | like before | 16:21 |
| daeron | but when i try to install it, it doen't happen anything | 16:21 |
| daeron | is there someone who can help me? | 16:22 |
| ioan | did you installed nvidia x server settings -i suppose you ca do it from there | 16:24 |
| BluesKaj | daeron, video composting ? What exactly are you trying to do ? | 16:24 |
| daeron | nothing special, i'm trying to enable kwin or compiz, for now | 16:24 |
| ioan | there's a gui for nvidia video settings | 16:25 |
| daeron | the problem is that the tool driver hardware recognize the right driver of my nvidia card but when i press the button to active it, doesn't happen anything | 16:25 |
| daeron | or bettere | 16:25 |
| daeron | *better | 16:26 |
| daeron | the name of the driver in the list of supported driver became gray | 16:26 |
| BluesKaj | daeron, what nvidia card and which driver ? | 16:27 |
| daeron | nvidia gtkx280 and nvidia driver release 180 | 16:27 |
| daeron | a friend of mine told me to try envy instead of the close drivers | 16:28 |
| BluesKaj | !envy | 16:29 |
| ubottu | EnvyNG is a program to install newer version of nVidia or ATi drivers, it can be found in !Universe as "envyng-gtk" (for Gtk/Gnome) or "envyng-qt" (for Qt/KDE). It is NOT a supported method to install video drivers; please only use it if standard methods fail and at your own risk - See also !BinaryDriver | 16:29 |
| daeron | why at my own risk? | 16:29 |
| daeron | is it unstable? | 16:29 |
| BluesKaj | yes | 16:30 |
| Mamarok | daeron: and not supported | 16:31 |
| kaddi | uh someone walked me through compiling from source. I did a .configure && make && sudo make install. Everything is working great, but I am wondering if I still need the folders in which I did the make or if "sudo make install" copied all necessary items to /usr/lib? | 16:31 |
| daeron | ok | 16:31 |
| BluesKaj | daeron, sudo aptitude install nvidia-glx-180 .let's make sure the driver is installed | 16:31 |
| daeron | i've tried that to | 16:31 |
| BluesKaj | and ? | 16:31 |
| daeron | and after i make 'sudo nvidia-xconfig ' and all his option | 16:32 |
| daeron | and nothing happened | 16:32 |
| === phil_ is now known as philf | ||
| BluesKaj | no need to sudo nvidia-xconfig , just installand reboot | 16:33 |
| daeron | i'm going to try this way another time | 16:33 |
| Dragnslcr | kaddi- you can usually remove the source directory, but unless you need the disk space, I wouldn't bother | 16:33 |
| daeron | ah ok | 16:33 |
| darthanubis | and stay away from envy | 16:33 |
| daeron | and now that i'm here | 16:33 |
| daeron | what about kde 4.3rc2? | 16:33 |
| ioan | nvidia drivers should be installed after closing the x server using the sh command - | 16:33 |
| darthanubis | the default hardware device installer works perfectly, you just have to wait and be patient | 16:33 |
| daeron | how long do i have to wait? | 16:34 |
| darthanubis | daeron: until it is finished | 16:34 |
| daeron | mmm | 16:34 |
| darthanubis | it will tell you you need to reboot when it has done it's thing | 16:34 |
| daeron | ok | 16:34 |
| daeron | ok | 16:35 |
| kaddi | Dragnslcr: the source folder still lies in my temporary download folder which is regularly emptied.. just wanted to know if this would break everything and if I had to take extra precautions :) | 16:35 |
| daeron | i try the tool another time and now i'll wait as long as i can | 16:35 |
| darthanubis | daeron: I'm using RC2 as well | 16:35 |
| daeron | let's see | 16:35 |
| ioan | http://www.linuxforums.org/articles/installing-nvidia-3d-drivers_50.html | 16:35 |
| darthanubis | nvidia installation should NOT still be an issue? | 16:36 |
| darthanubis | I don't get it? | 16:36 |
| darthanubis | If it does not work, it is 9/10 human error | 16:36 |
| daeron | the fact is that i remember when i did it when i've installed for the first time kubuntu jaunty, and that time it worked well and fast | 16:37 |
| Mamarok | kaddi: depends what you are compiling, if it is a SVN version, you should update often, so keep the sources | 16:37 |
| darthanubis | because it works | 16:37 |
| darthanubis | I have 4 systems running debian based distros | 16:38 |
| daeron | yes i know, but that time i could see a windows with an increasing bar of the working process | 16:38 |
| daeron | and now (still now) i can't see anything of that | 16:38 |
| kaddi | Mamarok it was mono 2.4, I'll go back to the "usual" repository version once I upgrade to karmic, but for now I'm using a built but normally released version | 16:38 |
| darthanubis | Nvidia driver installation never failed | 16:38 |
| darthanubis | 8series, 5series, even and old 440mx | 16:39 |
| Mamarok | kaddi: gah, mono.... | 16:39 |
| kaddi | Mamarok: what? :p | 16:40 |
| daeron | listen, i saw now in synaptic i've installed nvidia-<number>-modaliases, with modaliases 71,96,173,180 | 16:40 |
| daeron | all of all installed | 16:40 |
| BluesKaj | ioan, are you sure that tutorial dor nvidia drivers still applies ? It's over 2 yrs old | 16:40 |
| daeron | maybe is it this? | 16:40 |
| Mamarok | kaddi: KDE doesn't use it | 16:41 |
| ioan | las time when i did an sh install of nvidia driver was about a year ago but that is the standard procedure for manually installing nvidia drivers | 16:41 |
| darthanubis | and unneccesary | 16:42 |
| kaddi | Mamarok: Is there a KDE equivalent to mono then? I need to use it for some .net-tools I need to run under kubuntu. and the .net framework won't install with wine | 16:42 |
| darthanubis | kaddi: thank god no | 16:43 |
| daeron | well know i'm trying to install the driver manually from synaptic | 16:43 |
| Mamarok | kaddi: no, KDE doesn't use C* neither, everything is Qt and C++ | 16:43 |
| daeron | let's see what happens | 16:43 |
| Mamarok | C# | 16:43 |
| kaddi | so mono ist just bad and shouldn't be used, but there is no alternative if you want to run .net-stuff under kubuntu? | 16:44 |
| darthanubis | absence of MONO is why i just switched to kubuntu | 16:44 |
| ioan | http://www.nvidia.com/Download/index.aspx?lang=en-us | 16:47 |
| ioan | here should be a tutorial about installing nvidia drivers in linux | 16:47 |
| daeron | still her and nothing happened | 16:52 |

| d3ng | im on jaunty 9.04 and if i try to login the screen gets black and i fallback to the login screen again | 17:11 |
| johnnymac | Another question: where is the /etc/inittab file showing run level information in ubuntu | 17:11 |
| llutz | d3ng: check free space on /, /home and permissions of /tmp | 17:11 |
| Tm_T | d3ng: /home/user/.xsession-errors perhaps | 17:11 |
| d3ng | i also get "welcome to localhost.localdomain" not my realmachine name | 17:12 |

| macrobat_ | johnnymac: there is no inittab in ubuntu, there is upstart | 17:18 |
| johnnymac | where is the file that when opened shows ubuntu's runlevels? | 17:19 |
| BluesKaj | johnnymac, /etc/rc*d | 17:23 |
| johnnymac | BluesKaj: Thanks, I was hoping for one readable easy file like 'inittab' | 17:24 |
| johnnymac | oh well. | 17:24 |
| BluesKaj | johnnymac, just sub the runlevel numbe in * | 17:25 |
| johnnymac | BluesKaj: /etc/innittab was just the one file with runlevel info . I guess ubuntu does not have that. | 17:27 |
| BluesKaj | johnnymac, /etc/innittab is not a familiar file to my eyes :P | 17:32 |
| BluesKaj | johnnymac, /etc/event.d/rc-default .. maybe ? | 17:36 |
| johnnymac | BluesKaj: if you look for /etc/inittab you will see it shows the different runlevels the OS has. Maybe ubuntu does not have that? | 17:38 |
| yesitisjustme | If laptop has no cdrom can i connect laptop harddrive to desktop install there and then put laptop harddrive back to laptop, will it detect the new hardware? | 17:39 |
| BluesKaj | johnnymac, that above file has reference to /etc/inittab | 17:39 |
| johnnymac | As in it does not have a similar file as ubunutu handles runlevels in a different way. | 17:40 |

| Mamarok | ubuntu: what are you doing? | 19:36 |
| leaf-sheep | He got a fetish for compiling errors, me think. | 19:37 |
| brad__ | Hello I am trying to a build a few plasmoids from source and they all keep giving me this error: checking for KDE... configure: error: in the prefix, you've chosen, are no KDE libraries installed. This will fail. So, check this please and use another prefix! | 19:43 |
| brad__ | nobody knows? :-( | 19:47 |
| Zorael | brad__: Well, have you supplied a prefix? Usually it defaults to /usr/local, and you'll likely want it to be /usr | 19:50 |
| Zorael | brad__: so './configure --prefix=/usr' | 19:50 |
| brad__ | Zorael, It still didn't work | 19:52 |
| brad__ | Idk if this will help but I'm using AMD64 | 19:52 |
| brad__ | I've been searching on google for the past two hours and I can't find anything that works. | 19:52 |
| Zorael | Perhaps you are missing necessary KDE dev libs, then. Does none of them say which ones are necessary? | 19:53 |
| brad__ | Zorael, no :-( that's why this is so difficult lol the people who made them I guess just assume it's going to work and don't write any instructions | 19:56 |
| Zorael | Something like 'sudo aptitude build-dep plasma-widgets-addons' should pull common plasma widget dev libs | 19:56 |
| Zorael | Try that and ./configure with --prefix=/usr afterwards | 19:57 |
| Zorael | (after it's done installing, obviously.) | 19:58 |
| Count123 | alright, I've been having quite a bit of a problem for a long time, and I'm just wondering if anyone has heard of this | 20:05 |
| Count123 | kubuntu hardy, 64 bit | 20:05 |
| Count123 | many programs will just say 'not responding' and then be unuseable | 20:06 |
| Count123 | open office is completely unuseable | 20:06 |
| Count123 | I do not have those problems with kde4 programs though | 20:06 |
| _abbenormal | hey guys just had this happen on install nvidia drivers and now i get this on bootup reloading postfix configurations ... and just a flashing cursor | 20:07 |
| Captain_Haddock | Count123: sometimes, starting the program from a terminal will help identify the issue | 20:09 |
| Captain_Haddock | (the terminal will usually contain telltale error messages) | 20:09 |
| Captain_Haddock | _abbenormal: the boot manager (grub) will usually have something like a safe mode, you could try using that to get in and take things from there. | 20:10 |
| Captain_Haddock | brad__: you can probably get more suitable assistance in #kde | 20:11 |
| Count123 | yeah, running open office from terminal, even though it doesn't work, doesn't give me any error messages | 20:12 |
| Count123 | no messages at all actually | 20:13 |
| === Count123 is now known as Count | ||

| Captain_Haddock | hmm, perhaps it's a java thing | 20:14 |
| Captain_Haddock | do you have a .openoffice or similar in your home directory? | 20:14 |
| Count | yeah, I have .openoffice.org2 | 20:15 |
| snarkster | i need some helping find the right kernel parameter for 720x480 | 20:15 |

| Captain_Haddock | Count: try *renaming* it to something else and restart openoffice | 20:16 |
| Captain_Haddock | oh I see | 20:16 |
| Count | and even in programs that are otherwise working, if you need to browse for a file, the file finder that comes up will not work | 20:16 |
| Captain_Haddock | is your installation up-to-date? | 20:17 |
| Count | not quite :/ | 20:18 |
| ikonia | snarkster: vga=ask | 20:18 |
| Captain_Haddock | Count: up-to-date as in via adept? | 20:18 |
| Count | because adept_notify also doesn't work, I wasn't able to see the packages that needed to be upgraded, until yesterday, when I found I could actually run adept_manager from terminal and be able to use that | 20:19 |
| Count | I was downloading the majority of the files I need, when of course my router decided to be a pain, cutting me off from the internet, and crashing adept | 20:20 |
| Captain_Haddock | Count: run "sudo apt-get update" (and later "sudo apt-get upgrade") from a terminal. | 20:20 |
| Captain_Haddock | it will pick things up from when it was last interrupted. | 20:20 |

| _abbenormal | hello | 21:56 |
| mikesol | i have a really trouble installing kubutu | 21:56 |

| mikesol | I just download kubuntu 9.04 | 21:57 |
| mikesol | and i'm trying to install it on my brother's computer, but it prompts a console named initramfs | 21:58 |
| mikesol | what can i do??? | 21:58 |
| mikesol | the computer is a toshiba a300 | 21:59 |
| _abbenormal | so it stops loading at that | 22:00 |
| mikesol | yes | 22:00 |

| Captain_Haddock | mikesol: it's very likely some HDD detection issues. | 22:02 |
| mikesol | ok | 22:02 |
| mikesol | what can i do | 22:02 |
| llutz | rmrfslash: thats the name of ubuntus ff-3.5 | 22:02 |
| rmrfslash | Since it's modded? | 22:03 |
| llutz | i think so | 22:03 |
| rmrfslash | I see.... they removed all the firefox branding too? | 22:03 |
| mikesol | could you explain me? | 22:03 |
| p_quarles | rmrfslash: no, it was the development code name | 22:03 |
| rmrfslash | p_quarles: then why does my installing still say shiretoko? | 22:03 |
| === Matthew is now known as Guest13706 | ||
| rmrfslash | p_quarels: I _just_ installed it. | 22:03 |
| Captain_Haddock | mikesol: I don't have any suggestion besides asking you to burn to a CD or DVD and try. I'm not familiar with USB installations, sorry. | 22:03 |
| p_quarles | rmrfslash: because you installed the one in the jaunty repos, which is pre-release | 22:04 |
| mikesol | ok i'm going to try with a cd | 22:04 |
| mikesol | thanks | 22:04 |
| rmrfslash | I see | 22:04 |
| mikesol | see you later | 22:04 |
| Captain_Haddock | mikesol: good luck :) | 22:04 |
| mikesol | thanks | 22:04 |
| rmrfslash | p_quarles: so eventually this will become "Firefox" 3.5? | 22:04 |
| devilsadvocate_ | rmrfslash, it wont for jaunty. | 22:05 |
| rmrfslash | p_quarles: I see. So 3.5 will be "official" under 9.10 I presume | 22:05 |
| p_quarles | only if you use the backports version; I don't see why it matters what the name is, though | 22:05 |
| p_quarles | at all | 22:05 |
| devilsadvocate_ | rmrfslash, you actually have 2 ffs running. if you execute firefox it'll run 3.0.whatever. if you run firefox-3.5 you get 3.5 | 22:05 |
| p_quarles | rmrfslash: probably | 22:05 |
| devilsadvocate_ | rmrfslash, yes | 22:05 |
| rmrfslash | devilsadvocate: I uninstalled firefox-3.0 | 22:06 |
| rmrfslash | p_quarles: it's not a huge show stopping problem. It's just odd that I'm left w/ this thing called "Shiretoko" | 22:07 |
| Captain_Haddock | rmrfslash: it's probably so both versions can coexist. | 22:07 |
| p_quarles | well, take it up with whoever's responsible for Firefox production codenames | 22:07 |
| devilsadvocate_ | rmrfslash, well, its not officially supported on jaunty | 22:08 |
| rmrfslash | I see. | 22:08 |
| === apol__ is now known as apol_ | ||
| rmrfslash | and that makes a bit more sense | 22:08 |
| rmrfslash | which is of upmost importance, that it makes sense to me | 22:09 |
| rmrfslash | :-/ | 22:09 |
| p_quarles | once an Ubuntu version gets released, it's rare for any package to get a version upgrade except in backports; it's not how the development cycle is designed | 22:09 |
| rmrfslash | I see. | 22:09 |
| p_quarles | Ubuntu 6.06, which just got to eol recently, used Firefox 1.5 for the entire time (I believe; I wasn't using it myself, so I can't say for sure) | 22:10 |
| rmrfslash | so I can get a backports upgrade of firefox | 22:10 |
| rmrfslash | I guess I'm not sure what "backport" is then | 22:11 |
| rmrfslash | So a backport is applying a new patch to an older version | 22:12 |
| rmrfslash | So why would an upgrade to firefox-3.5 be a backport? Aren't software upgrades always a backport? | 22:13 |
| p_quarles | the backports repository is an extra, non-default repository for Ubuntu with packages provided by community members; not officially supported | 22:15 |
| rmrfslash | OK... makes sense. | 22:15 |
| rmrfslash | So aptitude install firefox-3.5 is an official but development package for jaunty | 22:15 |
| rmrfslash | which is why it's called shiretoko... cuz it's slated for official release w/ (probably) 9.10 | 22:16 |
| rmrfslash | Am I correct? | 22:16 |
| p_quarles | rmrfslash: it's called Shiretoko because that's what Mozilla called it before it was released to the general public; and the copy of Firefox 3.5 in Jaunty was built before it was officially released | 22:17 |
| rmrfslash | I see. | 22:18 |
| p_quarles | it's a development codename just like "Jaunty Jackalope", or "Windows Longhorn" | 22:18 |
| KittyBoots | I just installed KDE but when I login knetworkmanager does not start so I start it from a terminal and it will not connect to router. I am logged into gnome at the moment. How can I fix this KDE problem? | 22:18 |
| p_quarles | it doesn't mean it's no longer Firefox | 22:18 |
| rmrfslash | p_quarles: I totally get codenames. I just don't know why it's still called Shiretoko. I mean, the official forefox 3.5 is released. I would have expected that Ubuntu would have applied their customizations to that version already.... thus it wouldn't be named Shiretoko. Not that this is even a problem for me. I already changed the icon and anyone who uses my computer will recognize firefox. | 22:20 |
| rmrfslash | p_quarles: it's just that I'm somewhat detail-oriented. I notice and dwell on details.... perhaps to the extent of "too much" :) | 22:21 |
| Zxcvb | how do you get 4.2.4 if you have already updated to 4.3 RC? | 22:25 |
| rmrfslash | Yep, it looks like Ubuntu keeps branding for the default firefox. Also, like devilsadvocate said earlier, "we want them to be able to be installed side-by-side" | 22:26 |
| rmrfslash | Saw this on a google result | 22:26 |
| rmrfslash | Chromifox Extreme, Chromifox Companion and Hide Menubar Firefox extensions. | 22:32 |
| rmrfslash | Very cool. | 22:32 |
| nonewmsgs | even though i am using my "high definition" built-in soundcard, only one program can have access to the soundcard at one time. is there a fix for this or do ihave to stick in a better card? | 22:33 |
| Zxcvb | ok, I upgraded to kde 4.2.4 and now there is a bar of stuff at the top of the screen but the rest of the screen is empty | 23:13 |
| AlexZion | Zxcvb: probably you have to remove all the plasmoid , included th epanel , and put back all you need ... | 23:14 |
| Zxcvb | how do you do that? | 23:14 |
| AlexZion | unlocks the plasmoids and than right click and remove | 23:15 |

| jpetso83 | seems i cannot build qt-webkit because libphonon-dev ships without the include alias files (e.g. Phonon/AudioOutput instead of Phonon/audiooutput.h) | 23:40 |
| jpetso83 | any suggestions on how to solve that? do i need to build phonon by myself? | 23:40 |
| bulletxt | hi, I'm having serious problems with Kubuntu. My monitor is a crt pihlips 17°. It supports high resolutions like 1900*1600 , however I want to set kde to be 1280*1024. When I set kde4 to this resolution and then reboot computer, kde just forgets about my setting and sets resolution at 1900*1600.... why is it forgetting resolution ? thanks for help | 23:49 |
| bulletxt | I have this bug since I got this monitor and kde always gave me this problem.... gnome doesn't............... :( | 23:52 |
