| volty | hi, the tty console (Ctrl-F1) is not readable, vga=0x317 is ok, is it a font problem? how can I fix it ? maybe you can give me an url at docs ? | 00:02 |
|---|---|---|
| Quintasan | volty: what's 0x317 resolution? | 00:07 |
| skierpage | I'm running Kubuntu 9.04 with some additional PPAs. I'm installing virtualbox-3.0_3.0.2-49928_Ubuntu_jaunty_amd64.deb and it's complaining " Unable to find a precompiled module for the current kernel". | 00:07 |
| skierpage | My kernel is 2.6.28-11-generic. What's strange is that somehow I have a bunch of vbox*.ko files, but they are all in /lib/modules/2.6.28-13-server/misc/ (13, not 11). | 00:08 |
| hocuspocus | can anyone tell me what does man idconfig do ? | 00:08 |
| Speaker-To-Compu | it would show u the manual for idconfig | 00:09 |
| volty | Quintasan: booh, don't know exactly, forgot it, just works fine when booting with gentoo, going to see | 00:10 |
| volty | Quintasan: vga=0x317 means 1024x768x16 | 00:11 |
| Quintasan | volty: and what's your desired resolution? | 00:11 |
| volty | Quintasan: the same | 00:11 |
| Quintasan | volty: and the font's are too big or too small? | 00:11 |
| volty | Quintasan: they seem too big and too thin (so unreadable) | 00:12 |
| Quintasan | :/ | 00:12 |
| Quintasan | Looks like a common problem | 00:12 |
| Quintasan | same here, the only difference is in resolution - 1920x1080 here | 00:13 |
| volty | Quintasan: yes, but where in ubuntu we can set the character for the console? | 00:15 |

| skierpage | I think I figured it out, virtualbox-3.0_3.0.2-49928_Ubuntu_jaunty_amd64.deb contains these pre-built .ko files for version 13 of the kernel. VirtualBox installation seemed to succeed in building its own. | 00:20 |

| Dragnslcr | Maybe a bash alias | 00:59 |
| Dragnslcr | A symlink is essentially a named alias | 00:59 |
| Dragnslcr | e.g. if you create a symlink from /usr/bin/wine to /usr/bin/crossover, any place you use /usr/bin/wine will have /usr/bin/crossover substituted for it | 01:00 |

| G226 | Heya there | 01:28 |
| G226 | I'm having an odd problem, I just installed kubuntu and I'm getting a black screen after suspending the laptop? I tried rebooting and not it's stuck at the tty1 text terminal and wont boot into ubuntu graphically? | 01:29 |
| G226 | I tried the command "startx" and it scrolled text thn said "Fatal server error: no screens found" | 01:32 |
| BluesKaj | G226, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg , and make your choices, then once done type startx ..this may or may not work depending on your graphics chip | 01:33 |
| BluesKaj | !intelxgl | 01:34 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about intelxgl | 01:34 |
| G226 | BluesKaj, Trying it now, thank you. Its a laptop with a Geforce 2 in it. | 01:34 |
| BluesKaj | !intelglx | 01:34 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about intelglx | 01:34 |
| BluesKaj | nvidia should not be a prob then G226 | 01:35 |
| G226 | BluesKaj, It says "/usr/sbin/dpkg-reconfigure: xserver.org is not installed | 01:35 |
| G226 | That's kind of odd as I've rebooted a few times now since installing and everything seemed fine :( | 01:36 |
| G226 | "Package 'xserver.org' is not installed and no info is available | 01:36 |
| BluesKaj | nvidia-glx-180 driver ? | 01:36 |
| Pici | G226: its xserver-xorg , not . | 01:36 |
| G226 | Pici, I'm only typing what it says in the readout | 01:37 |
| G226 | BluesKaj, I don't know what it installed by default. But on other distros this card has worked fine with the 96xx driver, I didn't get to that point of installing it yet as I was unfamiliar with ubuntu/kubuntu | 01:38 |
| G226 | and wasn't sure if it was even needed, this just happened after closing the laptop lid and then trying to resume from sleep, but then I couldn't so I had to forcefully power it down by holding the power button | 01:39 |
| BluesKaj | the drivers are becoming more like kernel modules so X has very little influence and is practically uneditable | 01:39 |
| G226 | Ah ok | 01:39 |
| BluesKaj | G226, lspci | grep -i vga to find the graphics card name so we can figure out which driver is needed | 01:40 |
| G226 | I'm not sure what's wrong now though? Ctrl-alt-F7 gives me a blank screen with a blinking curser, Ctrl-alt-f1 is the textual readout | 01:40 |
| G226 | Okay doing thatn ow | 01:40 |
| G226 | BluesKaj, "01:00.0 VGA Compatable controller: nVidia corporation NV11 (GeForce2 Go) (rev b2)" | 01:41 |
| BluesKaj | ok G226 your driver is as you mentioned , the nvidia-glx-96 | 01:43 |
| G226 | Okay BluesKaj, Thanks, I'm just not sure where to go from here though being stuck in text. | 01:44 |
| BluesKaj | well, you can try installing it again | 01:44 |
| G226 | Okay, I'll do that, will you be around a little? | 01:44 |
| BluesKaj | sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-96 | 01:45 |
| BluesKaj | yeah | 01:45 |
| G226 | Okay trying | 01:45 |
| G226 | Hehe I thought you meant Reinstall Kubuntu :P | 01:45 |
| BluesKaj | why use a sledgehammer when a needle and thread will do :) | 01:46 |
| * G226 laughs | 01:47 | |
| G226 | Yeh :P | 01:47 |
| G226 | Okay It's installed BlueKaj, last line was "ldconfig deferred procesing now taking place" | 01:48 |
| G226 | and now its back to the login :~$ waiting for input | 01:48 |
| BluesKaj | startx ...maybe | 01:50 |
| G226 | BluesKaj, "Fatal server error: No screens found, xinit: no such file or directory (errno 2): unable to connect to x server, no such process: server error | 01:51 |
| Guest93624 | hi, i installed the latest nvidia driver from nvidias website, if i install ubuntu's nvidia driver thats in the repo, will it get replaced or do i have to delete it first? | 01:51 |
| BluesKaj | guest uninstall the proprietary driver from the website first | 01:53 |
| BluesKaj | G226, sudo apt-get install xserver | 01:53 |
| G226 | BluesKaj, "xserver has no installation candidate" | 01:54 |
| BluesKaj | err xserver-xorg sorry | 01:54 |
| G226 | BluesKaj, "xserver-xorg already the newest version, 0 upgrades 0 newly installed 0 to revmove and 0 not upgraded | 01:55 |
| G226 | Should I try rebooting again? | 01:56 |
| BluesKaj | G226, I guess but I thought "startx" would work | 01:57 |
| G226 | Yeh I tried startx BluesKaj :( I'll try rebooting | 01:57 |
| BluesKaj | bummer :( | 01:57 |
| G226 | I'm not sure what happened to cause this except from crashing out from suspend mode | 01:58 |
| G226 | it was working fine for like 4 reboots | 01:58 |
| G226 | I rebooted BluesKaj, It's just going into the tty text login now by default D: | 01:59 |
| BluesKaj | did it show grub | 01:59 |
| G226 | The last line it says is "kinit: no resume image, doing normal boot . . . | 01:59 |
| G226 | It did, and I can get to it by pressing esc BluesKaj as it briefly flashes up | 02:00 |
| BluesKaj | sudo invoke-rc.d kdm start | 02:01 |
| G226 | There's four choices, kernell 2.6.28-13-generic and recovery mode for that, Kernel 2.6.28-11-generic and recovery mode and memtest86+ | 02:01 |
| G226 | five in cluding memtest | 02:01 |
| BluesKaj | G226, try this : sudo /etc/init.d/kdm restart | 02:03 |
| G226 | BluesKaj, sudo: /etc/init.d/kdm: command not found | 02:06 |
| BluesKaj | did you try , sudo cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 02:07 |
| G226 | Says no file or directory | 02:08 |
| G226 | What the heck :| | 02:08 |
| G226 | Something really bad or stupid must have happened | 02:08 |
| G226 | Want me to just reinstall quick so it works and we can go from there, so we don't have to nitpick through all this :P | 02:09 |
| G226 | I don't want to waste your time | 02:09 |
| The-Jesus | how about xorg -configure | 02:09 |
| The-Jesus | regenerate xorg.conf and then restart kdm | 02:09 |
| G226 | Trying | 02:10 |
| G226 | Both of those commands gave command not found | 02:10 |
| G226 | This is really odd | 02:10 |
| BluesKaj | G226, not to worry this is an intriguing problem , which I'm somewhat stuck on how to solve but a reinstall of the whole OS should be unecesary at this point | 02:11 |
| BluesKaj | The-Jesus, perhaps you could be more specific with regenerate commands | 02:12 |
| === john is now known as Guest58903 | ||
| The-Jesus | were you using envy and then performed an upgrade? | 02:12 |
| BluesKaj | he's stuck at the tty prompt cuz X failed | 02:13 |
| G226 | The-Jesus, No no envy I don't think but I think maybe kde3's updater did update something before I had to force reboot/shut down after I got stuck at a black screen on resume from suspend | 02:13 |
| G226 | I don't get why none of these commands are working though | 02:14 |
| BluesKaj | which kubuntu version G226 ? | 02:14 |
| G226 | Kubuntu 9.04 with KDE3 | 02:14 |
| G226 | https://wiki.kubuntu.org/Kubuntu/Kde3/Jaunty | 02:15 |
| BluesKaj | G226, kde3 on jaunty is somewhat of an experiment , believe it or not :) | 02:18 |
| jessica_ | How do I use a webcam in kopete? | 02:18 |
| G226 | I believe it BluesKaj, Do you think that's why this happened? | 02:18 |
| BluesKaj | dunno for sure | 02:18 |
| G226 | BluesKaj, Should I reinstall Kubuntu with KDE4? | 02:19 |
| G226 | But is there a way to disable most effects, it ran slow last time I tried it, the laptop is a PIII 1.1ghz with 256mb of ram :P | 02:19 |
| Dragnslcr | jessica_- I think the only Kopete plugin that supports video is Yahoo, and I'm not sure if it's broken at the moment | 02:19 |
| G226 | KDE4 i'm afraid would eat it, unless there was a way to knock it back down to almost KDE3 levels | 02:19 |
| BluesKaj | kde4 is quite mature now despite all hype against it , even amarok works now :) | 02:19 |
| G226 | Oh I don't really listen to the hype or biased people, it's just im afraid of resource usage :P | 02:20 |
| G226 | I'll try it again, but I'm going to run into the same suspend problem. After it's installed could you maybe help me with that? | 02:20 |
| BluesKaj | G226, I'm using kde4.3 on karmic and cpu amnd memory usage is at a minimum most of the time ...this pc is a 4 yr old amd | 02:21 |
| G226 | BluesKaj, Okay and as for the sleep problem? | 02:22 |
| G226 | err Suspend | 02:22 |
| G226 | It just blackscreens after opening the lid again, but the fans and HDD are going and such | 02:22 |
| BluesKaj | G226 , yup, I'll be around for at least an hr | 02:22 |
| G226 | Okay BluesKaj, I just burned and installing it now | 02:23 |
| forces | hello | 02:23 |
| BluesKaj | i have a lappy but never use the suspend so i'm not sure ...shut it right down for a min or 2 then restart | 02:23 |
| Benny_ | Does anyone know how to hack windows using ubuntu | 02:24 |
| BluesKaj | we don't hack windows here , Benny_ | 02:25 |
| Benny_ | ahhh ok | 02:25 |
| * G226 hacks Benny_ with a candy cane! | 02:26 | |
| Benny_ | i need to get my file in my office i need to remote it using ubuntu | 02:26 |
| G226 | I'd not suggest that, you'd be breaching company policy most likely :P And their security | 02:26 |
| BluesKaj | that's not a hack , Benny_ :) | 02:27 |
| G226 | Unless its your own office! | 02:27 |
| Benny_ | i forgot to save in my flash drive so i need it | 02:27 |

| stacasajac | hi | 02:29 |
| BluesKaj | remote desktop client | 02:29 |
| Benny_ | is it posible or not | 02:29 |
| stacasajac | ? | 02:29 |
| Benny_ | using ubuntu can we do that | 02:30 |

| G226 | Phew, finally booted in and at the install screen, it seems to be going incredibly slow compared to kde 3.5 D: | 02:42 |
| G226 | but maybe its from running off the cd | 02:43 |
| BluesKaj | yup, the live cd is bit slower | 02:43 |
| G226 | Thanks for all your help by the way BluesKaj so far | 02:44 |
| === marcos is now known as teio | ||
| BluesKaj | np G226 ..it's nice to try to ppl who have some civility :) We get pplin here who expect instant gratification and become rude and demanding if their questions aren't answered '"tout de suite" | 02:46 |
| G226 | No reason to act like that haha, :< I've been messing with this a week started linux a week ago | 02:47 |
| Dragnslcr | forces- RC3 packages will be available when they're ready. If you install RC2, you'll get RC3 as a normal update | 02:48 |
| BluesKaj | welcome to the wonderful world of Linux G226 :) | 02:48 |
| G226 | But it seems each distro has it's downfalls with this old laptop, I finally gave up and came back to Ubuntu/Kubuntu from fedora trying that, fedora refused to boot / mount / auto mount and drive the cd inside of the OS no matter what | 02:48 |
| G226 | except could do it through the term, no one could figure out out decided it was hardware incompat | 02:49 |
| G226 | Ubuntu/Kubuntu automounts and browses fine though | 02:49 |
| G226 | Thanks :P | 02:49 |
| BluesKaj | ok , so you are running an older laptop ...what kind of cpu speed and ram does it have ? | 02:50 |
| G226 | It's a Dell C810 PIII 1.1ghz, 256mb ram, GeForce2 Go. It runs fine with KDE 3.5 and Ubuntu/Kubuntu, or Mepis / fedora. It's just Either on fedora the drive had mounting problems always, and on debian based distros it has suspend blackscreen problems xD so I've been bouncing back and forth but I think settling on Kubuntu now | 02:53 |
| BluesKaj | it's a little light on the memory alright. 512 is prolly a minimum for kde4 apps | 02:55 |
| G226 | Yeh... | 02:55 |
| G226 | it's only going to be used for | 02:55 |
| G226 | Email, Web and open office writer | 02:56 |
| G226 | I'm not really interested in fancy apps :O | 02:56 |
| BluesKaj | ok | 02:56 |
| G226 | or applets/widgets etc :P | 02:56 |
| G226 | Probably it should be okay disabling most of them, desktop effects and such right? | 02:56 |
| BluesKaj | yeah, should be ok ..but it'll be a bit slow just the same | 02:57 |
| G226 | Oh | 02:57 |
| G226 | Slower then kde 3 or well I guess ill see | 02:57 |
| BluesKaj | OO is somewhat of hog | 02:57 |
| BluesKaj | a hog | 02:57 |
| G226 | Well, I'll find something else or use ubuntu with xfce or the like. My main concern is the black screen issue with suspend on kUbuntu/Debian based distros | 02:58 |
| BluesKaj | xfce worked well on my old 233mhz / 256 ram 11yr old pc 5yrs back . | 02:59 |
| G226 | But for now I'll let this finish and hopefully we can solve the blackscreen suspend issue | 03:00 |
| BluesKaj | ram maxxed out at 256 :) | 03:00 |
| G226 | Hehe | 03:00 |
| BluesKaj | bbiafew | 03:02 |
| G226 | Okay BluesKaj | 03:02 |
| G226 | it's 27% right now | 03:02 |
| b14ck | hey, can i use any cool desktop effects like on the gnome verision? wobbly windows, cube desktop, etc? | 03:08 |
| Dragnslcr | b14ck- yes, KDE4 has compositing and effects as part of kwin | 03:13 |
| b14ck | Dragnslcr: thanks! how can i configure that? (or where do i go)? | 03:14 |
| Dragnslcr | b14ck- System Settings -> Desktop | 03:14 |
| b14ck | I can't find the menu, lol. | 03:15 |
| b14ck | applications->system->(no desktop here) | 03:15 |
| Dragnslcr | If you have the new-style K Menu, System Settings is in the Computer tab | 03:18 |
| b14ck | ah | 03:18 |
| b14ck | thanks | 03:18 |
| BluesKaj | G226, ok back ..how's it going ? | 03:29 |
| G226 | It's 94% BluesKaj | 03:32 |
| G226 | veeerrry slow :P I don't know why | 03:32 |
| G226 | KDE4 is probably taking most of the mem while the installers going at the same time | 03:32 |
| BluesKaj | G226, yeah , writing is slow with low mem capacity, but it will finish soon I'm sure | 03:33 |
| G226 | Yeh it will :P | 03:34 |
| G226 | Thanks for letting me know you're back | 03:34 |
| BluesKaj | wife was asking me about some stuff on her windows pc.... bloody vista is PITA sometimes | 03:35 |
| b14ck | hey--i'm unable to hear any sound from firefox, i just installed the flashplayer plugin, but hear no sound at all | 03:37 |
| b14ck | if i go to the system settings and test my audio device, i hear the sound just fine | 03:37 |
| b14ck | any suggestions? | 03:37 |
| G226 | BluesKaj, I really like Windows 7 over vista | 03:37 |
| G226 | Also it just finished and im restarting | 03:37 |
| CrOnOs | guys i had problems conecting to my wifi my network is on the list avariable but i cant conect i used the 2 options pasfrase and hex same results my key is 10 digits | 03:39 |
| BluesKaj | b14ck,just to be sure , altho you prolly already have these installed , sudo apt-get install libk3b3-extracodecs libxine1-ffmpeg | 03:39 |
| b14ck | BluesKaj: i haven't installed those yet, but will do now. | 03:40 |
| b14ck | BluesKaj: hmm--still not working :( | 03:41 |
| b14ck | im going to reboot =p | 03:41 |
| b14ck | brb (this is a fresh install) | 03:41 |
| G226 | Okay BluesKaj, I'm logged in now using Kubuntu 9.04 + KDE4 | 03:42 |
| BluesKaj | G226, you're at the desktop ? | 03:43 |
| G226 | Yes | 03:43 |
| BluesKaj | cool :0 | 03:43 |
| BluesKaj | :) | 03:43 |
| G226 | Now for the problem, Shutting the lid and it going to suspend then opening it is a black screen | 03:44 |
| b14ck | hey BluesKaj, thanks! i got it working now, had to reboot | 03:45 |
| b14ck | after installing thost packages | 03:45 |
| b14ck | appreciate the help :) | 03:45 |
| BluesKaj | np, b14ck | 03:45 |
| G226 | Blueskaj, Should I install the 96xx drivers again? Or try doing suspend once more | 03:46 |
| G226 | It | 03:47 |
| G226 | Already has the recommended driver up there | 03:47 |
| G226 | and asking me if I want to activate it | 03:47 |
| BluesKaj | yes do so | 03:47 |
| BluesKaj | why do you need to suspend , whynot just shut it down when not in use ? | 03:48 |
| G226 | BluesKaj, It's just perplexing it works in redhat distros also, I'm going to give it to my grandma and if she closes the lid then opens it and it doesnt come back on she might get confused or something. I guess I could tell her to just shut it down before closing the lid | 03:50 |
| BluesKaj | yes, there are probs with suspend in kubuntu . I've heard discussions in the past about it , but never reall paid attn , cuz I just shut everything down every evening , including alll the power bars on this setup | 03:52 |
| G226 | Ah | 03:52 |
| G226 | So you have no idea where to go if installing 96xx doesn't work? | 03:52 |
| BluesKaj | the nvidia-glx-96 driver should work , if not then it's prolly an X issue | 03:54 |
| high-rez | Huh. I think 4.3 backport only half installed. :| | 03:54 |
| BluesKaj | HAL/X/kernel issue actually | 03:54 |
| BluesKaj | high-rez, check with #kde | 03:56 |
| BluesKaj | there may be more than one ppa needed | 03:57 |
| G226 | BluesKaj, Mmhh yeh blackscreen still. Pressing space or enter, moving the mouse did nothing, pressing power button once made it shut down | 03:57 |
| high-rez | BluesKaj: No, I'm pretty sure I messed something up. When I first tried the backport, it said 28 updates available. I didn't update - | 03:57 |
| high-rez | Then went back in, and tried and said 16 - and some pretty important things appeared to be missing - all of which I of course ignored and said apply :) | 03:58 |
| BluesKaj | high-rez, do an autoclean and try again , but make sure you have the proper ppas | 04:00 |
| high-rez | What's an auto- clean ? I'm doing a dist-upgrade now to see if it helps (taking sstabs in the dark) | 04:01 |
| BluesKaj | high-rez, I prefer to use aptitude with RCs because it brings along the dependencies better than apt ... sudo aptitude autoclean | 04:03 |
| high-rez | BluesKaj: aptitude upgrade seems to be doing the trick now... | 04:06 |
| BluesKaj | high-rez, use the command , sudo aptitude safe-upgrade, after the update | 04:07 |
| BluesKaj | well folks ...it's sacktime here | 04:10 |
| fedel | Guys, I'm brazilian. I try to configure my keyboard correctly but I couldn't. I try to change the language in login, but there is no portuguese option. Should I install any package? | 04:16 |
| G226 | Awe, Blueskaj left bah after I did all this resinstalling ;x Ah well | 04:21 |
| G226 | Does anyone else know how to possibly fix the blackscreen suspend issue? | 04:21 |

| oobe | are you patching the source or modifying route.c manually? | 09:48 |
| ibrar | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile#Reasons%20for%20NOT%20compiling%20a%20custom%20kernel | 09:48 |
| ibrar | Yes I am modifying it manually | 09:49 |
| oobe | you will have to refer to the documentation that suggest you modify it | 09:50 |
| oobe | since ubuntu does not support such things | 09:50 |
| ibrar | I am doing it my self | 09:51 |
| ibrar | So How to tell it to compile my changes | 09:51 |
| oobe | my next suggestion is to try getting latest stable source tree from kernel.org then building it using this method https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile#Alternate Build Method: The Old-Fashioned Debian Way | 09:51 |
| oobe | what are you trying to achieve by modifying route.c | 09:52 |

| ibrar | Actually I need ip route equalize patch which is no longer part of 2.6 | 09:53 |

| oobe | but why | 09:54 |
| oobe | eeos, i havent | 09:54 |
| oobe | have you | 09:54 |
| eeos | oobe: no, but I would like to buy one and we only use (k)ubuntu .... so I was wondering whether it would be a good idea | 09:55 |
| eeos | oobe: compared to the other NAS they seem very fairly priced | 09:55 |
| eeos | oobe: do you know of any ubuntu based alternative? | 09:56 |
| oobe | *buntu will work on most systems | 09:56 |
| oobe | the thing to look out for is the mother board chipset | 09:57 |
| oobe | find out about a pc what mobo it uses and then what chips it uses for onboard sound lan etc. | 09:57 |
| oobe | but mostly even with little research you should be ok now days | 09:58 |
| oobe | u dont know anything about buffalo terastations are they a desktop pc | 09:58 |
| oobe | oh there hard drive enclosures | 09:59 |
| vishal | Hi I able to change the display resultuion from 1280x768 to 1024x768 but when I do it kubuntu and even ubuntu creates two blocks of black boxes on the right and left side | 09:59 |
| eeos | oobe: no they are NAS | 09:59 |
| oobe | oh u already said that i missed it sorry | 10:00 |
| vishal | I want it to take up the whole screen and at the same time be of a resolution of 1024x768 as I am into web development and that is what resolution I need to make the sites in | 10:00 |
| eeos | oobe: :D | 10:00 |
| vishal | anyone ? | 10:02 |
| eeos | vishal: I do not understand | 10:03 |
| oobe | what video card are you using vishal | 10:03 |
| eeos | vishal: it depends on your card and monitor | 10:03 |
| oobe | i think he is saying he gets overscan when he changes his resolution | 10:03 |
| oobe | or somthing like that | 10:03 |
| vishal | oobe: I think its Mobile 945GM/GMS/GME, 943/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller [8086:27A6] | 10:04 |
| oobe | so thats onboard intel | 10:05 |
| vishal | oobe: when I had open suse I could you use my full monitor in 1024x but in ubuntu it creates two black boxes on left and right side if I use 1024 | 10:06 |
| vishal | if I stick with 1280 I have no problem but I can't make my sites very easily in this resolution | 10:06 |
| oobe | how are you changing the resolution | 10:06 |
| vishal | yes onboard intel | 10:06 |
| eeos | vishal: is it a laptop? is it a LCD? what is the native resolution? | 10:06 |
| vishal | using the gui | 10:06 |
| vishal | yes laptop | 10:06 |
| vishal | native lcd | 10:06 |
| oobe | use xorg.conf instead | 10:06 |
| vishal | how do I do that ? | 10:07 |
| oobe | that should solve ur problem | 10:07 |

| jado | hi, sometimes i can't browse anymore even though i'm still connected; it seems that the DNS is not functionnal since i can't ping www.google.com; does someone have an idea? | 11:57 |
| bazhang | jado, you can use irc but not www? | 12:01 |
| jado | bazhang: yes that's it; all works correctly but sometimes the DNS stops and i can't browse anymore (i can't ping www.google.com but i think i can ping the ip address); however i've just rebooted my modem so now everything will work until an hour or so | 12:04 |
| bazhang | jado, that is odd; I have to that on occasion but every hour seems like an issue with either your settings or ISP-level | 12:07 |

The display was working quite nicely until I did a bunch of updates and now the best resolution I can get is 800X600 I tried getting into the display settings and that did not help. Does someone have an idea what I need to do to fix this? | 12:56 |

| beyondcr | but anyways im tired | 12:56 |
| bazhang | beyondcr, kdesudo for graphical apps | 12:58 |
| beyondcr | compilerwriter go to kmanager and install envy-ng make enable the prroper driver and restart .... you might want to back up your xconfig file to be safe | 12:58 |
| beyondcr | i just want to get this annoying system beep off my system | 12:59 |
| beyondcr | and everything i try is not going my way | 12:59 |

| compilerwriter | !envy | 13:02 |
| 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 | 13:02 |
| giacomo | Salve! Scusate la domanda idiota, ma dove diavolo posso andare su Jaunty per vedere come sono le partizioni sul computer, quanto spazio c'è libero nelle unità ecc. (una volta c'era sysinfo su konqueror) | 13:06 |
| beyondcr | ? | 13:06 |
| giacomo | devo reinstallare | 13:06 |
| giacomo | non so se /home è una partizione a parte e quale | 13:07 |
| giacomo | ecc. | 13:07 |
| giacomo | sono le info che ci sono in... fstab? mtab? (niubbo eheh) | 13:08 |
| compilerwriter | beyondcr: The video driver on that machine is not nvidia or ati as far as I can tell it is some sort of igp sv3/xxx sorry forgot what it said exactly | 13:08 |
| compilerwriter | beyondcr: should I still install envy-ng? | 13:08 |
| giacomo | ooops, thought it was an Italian channel, sorry for bothering! | 13:08 |
| giacomo | :-) | 13:09 |
| beyondcr | compilerwriter um what is your system | 13:09 |
| beyondcr | install envyng see what options it gives you what ever is green and checked go for it but make sure you backup you xconfig | 13:12 |
| compilerwriter | It is a box built by computer renaisance that has nothing high end on it. Just a single core amd 64. It just did the damndest thing. When I chose the console login it went to a console from kdm. Then when I mistyped the password it went back to kdm with the right screen resolution. I typed my password and now I have a screen that looks like kdm background and a pointer with the 800X600 resolution beyondcr | 13:13 |
| compilerwriter | beyondcr: now I am totally confused. | 13:13 |
| compilerwriter | beyondcr: should i try envy-ng or envy-qt? | 13:14 |
| compilerwriter | I will definately backup my xconfig before I do it. | 13:14 |
| beyondcr | 1 sec let me check | 13:14 |
| beyondcr | make sure you do the problem that you are having is what stoped me from using linux abunch of times before | 13:15 |
| beyondcr | compilerwriter you do want the envyng-qt and it should install envy-core along with it | 13:16 |
| beyondcr | it will install the proper video driver for you | 13:16 |

| anoneemouse | Hi... I have a question about ubuntu | 18:29 |
| anoneemouse | maybe wrong channel | 18:30 |
| BluesKaj | !ask | anoneemouse | 18:30 |
| ubottu | anoneemouse: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 18:30 |
| Captain_Haddock | anoneemouse: there's also a #ubuntu , FYI | 18:31 |
| anoneemouse | yes i was getting to that... if i install ubuntu will i ever have to axe the installation for a new one | 18:31 |
| anoneemouse | say if a new version comes out | 18:31 |
| ThomasZ | I see in my kde desktop some python app that checks the apt database. Anyone know which package I can deinstall to get rid of it? | 18:31 |
| anoneemouse | thanks Captain_Haddock | 18:32 |
| Captain_Haddock | anoneemouse: the next version can be install via upgrades either via the Internet or using a CD | 18:32 |
| BluesKaj | anoneemouse, no you just keep updating & upgrading | 18:32 |
| Captain_Haddock | ThomasZ: The system activity monitor or similar should tell you which apps are running at the moment | 18:33 |
| Captain_Haddock | that will probably point you in the right direction | 18:33 |
| anoneemouse | between major versions aswell? I dont want the same situation I have with windows and pcbsd | 18:33 |
| Captain_Haddock | anoneemouse: yes. | 18:34 |
| anoneemouse | its frustrating to have to download a huge ISO everytime a new major version comes | 18:34 |
| anoneemouse | thats cool :) | 18:34 |
| Captain_Haddock | anoneemouse: I personally find it more convenient to download the ISO as I have more than one installation and prefer to have the latest version available for new installs and to give away to friends etc. | 18:35 |
| anoneemouse | can i get kubuntu on a usb drive? | 18:35 |
| Captain_Haddock | I use the ISO as my upgrade source (and don't have to download stuff for the upgrade) | 18:35 |
| anoneemouse | i have rather limited bandwidth(im in south africa) | 18:35 |
| Captain_Haddock | anoneemouse: yes, there's a usb creator or something like that available (I haven't used it) | 18:35 |
| Captain_Haddock | !usb-creator | 18:36 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about usb-creator | 18:36 |
| anoneemouse | so i have to use it wisely... PCBSD was nice but they made major upgrades every other month | 18:36 |
| Captain_Haddock | !info usb-creator | 18:36 |
| ubottu | usb-creator (source: usb-creator): Ubuntu USB desktop image creator. In component main, is optional. Version 0.1.16 (jaunty), package size 26 kB, installed size 556 kB | 18:36 |
| anoneemouse | I see there is no USB installer on the kubuntu website :/ | 18:37 |
| Captain_Haddock | anoneemouse: I believe that you just roll your own using usb-creator | 18:39 |
| Captain_Haddock | not sure though | 18:39 |
| anoneemouse | can i install kubuntu using wubi? | 18:39 |
| anoneemouse | my dvd rom pooped, so im looking for a flash drive install or some otehr alternative | 18:39 |
| anoneemouse | one more question... where can I find out if a specific piece of hardware is supported | 18:42 |
| anoneemouse | ? | 18:42 |
| Dragnslcr | I've installed Kubuntu with wubi. Should work fine | 18:42 |
| anoneemouse | any downside to that Dragnslcr? | 18:43 |
| anoneemouse | Do I need a special version of wubi, on the website it wants me to download a single exe | 18:44 |
| Dragnslcr | I believe you need both the wubi executable and an iso disc image | 18:48 |
| anoneemouse | do i have to download the iso manually or does wubi do that too? | 18:49 |
| anoneemouse | The wubi default installation size is 11gb | 18:53 |
| anoneemouse | is that good enough? | 18:53 |

| afeijo | how can I configure my linux machines to use windows domain controler DHCP and DNS? | 19:40 |
| epimeth | afeijo: DHCP will do that for you | 19:42 |
| Guest68732 | ok i have a GDM file theme and i have no clue how to install it?? | 19:43 |
| afeijo | epimeth: is that a cmd? | 19:43 |
| epimeth | afeijo: no, if you configure your card to get its configuration from DHCP it will. if you want to force it to reconnect you can run the command "sudo dhclient" | 19:45 |
| afeijo | epimeth: the machines get ip, internet works, but it cant see the other machines by name, only thru IP. I need DHCP for that right? | 19:45 |
| epimeth | afeijo: no, DHCP puts you on the network... it gives you an ip address, subnet, gatway, dns, etc etc | 19:47 |
| afeijo | epimeth: so I need to configure the DNS? | 19:47 |
| antman_ | i have a question | 19:47 |
| epimeth | afeijo: no, you need to configure samba | 19:48 |
| afeijo | I use samba to share my machine files to the windows machines | 19:48 |
| antman_ | how do i install a theme that i downloaded | 19:48 |
| epimeth | afeijo: wait, do you meen for browsing files or for viewing web pages? | 19:48 |
| antman_ | its a GMD file or somethin like that | 19:48 |
| afeijo | epimeth: both, I need that my network can resolve names so it can access machines files or web pagse | 19:49 |
| cuznt | Options marked [*] produce a lot of output - pipe it through `less' or `more' ! | 19:49 |
| afeijo | epimeth: I need that my machine get listed on a windows xp networks window | 19:49 |
| afeijo | and that my machine will see any other machine (linux or windows) when I do i.e. ping machinename | 19:50 |
| antman_ | any 1 guna help me? | 19:50 |
| epimeth | antman: you should probably ask in #ubuntu... we here at use KDM :-) but anyway... http://www.google.com/#hl=en&q=ubuntu+install+GDM+theme&aq=f&oq=&aqi=g1&fp=VEE02fthf5k | 19:50 |
| epimeth | antman_: the world helps those who help themselves ;-) | 19:50 |
| antman_ | haha very funny XD | 19:51 |
| antman_ | ive been tryin for a while | 19:51 |
| epimeth | antman_: the very first link there doesn't answer your question??? | 19:51 |
| antman_ | sorry i have bad eyesight | 19:51 |
| antman_ | let me look for it | 19:51 |
| === derrick__ is now known as D-Master | ||
| epimeth | afeijo: well for browsing files you need to get to them through samba... in dolphin you type in "smb://DOMAINNAME/MACHINENAME" or just "smb:/" to browse all domains / workgroups | 19:52 |
| afeijo | epimeth: what would be the proper term for me to search on google for my problem? English isnt my main lang | 19:52 |
| afeijo | epimeth: the file sharing isnt the issue yet, if one machine cant see the other one by name (not resolving the IP) why would I need smb? | 19:53 |
| epimeth | to ping or access web pages you need to set up the DNS server correctly.... | 19:53 |
| afeijo | where can I check my linux station dns configuration? | 19:53 |
| epimeth | afeijo: in the command line, "ifconfig" | 19:54 |
| epimeth | afeijo: its much like window's "ipconfig" only better :-) | 19:55 |
| afeijo | epimeth: I have eth0, lo, vmnet1 and vmnet8. no dns mentioned | 19:55 |
| epimeth | afeijo: those are your interfaces | 19:55 |
| antman__ | ok maybe im goin at this the wrong way | 19:56 |
| antman__ | how do i install a new login screen? | 19:56 |
| epimeth | afeijo: sorry... forgot that dns doesn't appear there! your dns gets written to /etc/resolve.conf | 19:58 |
| epimeth | just view that file... from the command line it is "cat /etc/resolve.conf" cat is short for "concatenate" it outputs the contents of a file | 19:58 |
| afeijo | epimeth: ok, that file have 2 lines that make sense, pointing to my windows server ip and my router | 19:58 |
| epimeth | afeijo: so your linux box is set up correctly... the problem is with your DNS box | 19:59 |
| afeijo | epimeth: the windows side? | 19:59 |
| epimeth | afeijo: yup | 19:59 |
| afeijo | epimeth: today if I add lines to hosts file, all works but that sux lol | 19:59 |
| antman__ | how do i install a new login screen?? | 20:00 |
| epimeth | afeijo: the reason that the other windows boxes resolve correctly is because they use WINS once they are on the domain | 20:00 |
| epimeth | afeijo: *you* however, should be taking advantage of the "domain prefix", but you need to configure DNS to send it to you | 20:01 |
| epimeth | antman_: I don't understand what you want to do? do you want to theme your GDM or install a new display manager (the DM in GDM) | 20:02 |
| epimeth | ? | 20:02 |
| antman__ | i just want a different login screen =] | 20:03 |
| epimeth | antman_: the *background* of the login screen? or the ENTIRE logion application? | 20:03 |
| antman__ | the hole thing | 20:03 |
| epimeth | antman_: actually, let me rephrase... to what do you want to change it? can you send me a link? | 20:04 |
| antman__ | one sec leme see if i can send it | 20:04 |
| antman__ | http://www.gnome-look.org/content/preview.php?preview=1&id=105908&file1=105908-1.gif&file2=&file3=&name=htGdm | 20:05 |
| eduard | f | 20:07 |
| epimeth | antman_: so that is a GDM theme... you don't wnat to change your display manager, just give it a new theme... there is a "2.0" version of that theme, btw | 20:07 |
| antman__ | ok but how do i install it? | 20:08 |
| antman__ | im still a little unfamilar | 20:08 |
| antman__ | with kubunu | 20:09 |
| epimeth | antman_: the very first google search result I sent you explains it... in fact, the person who is asking there got his theme from exactly the same site you did... http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=89211 | 20:09 |
| antman__ | yes but i canot find admin in the system file | 20:10 |
| epimeth | antman__: system file? | 20:11 |
| epimeth | grrr | 20:11 |
| epimeth | antman__: wait! what do you mean kubuntu?!? you are asking about a GDM theme! GDM is the GNOME display manger. if you are using kubuntu then you have KDM installed! | 20:11 |
| epimeth | antman__: I think we finally found your problem :-) | 20:11 |
| antman__ | lol | 20:11 |
| antman__ | sry lol | 20:11 |
| epimeth | why are you looking for themes in gnome-look.org if you are using kde? | 20:12 |
| antman__ | how do i get themes for kdm | 20:12 |
| antman__ | my step dad told me to lol | 20:12 |
| epimeth | antman__: dude... open your browser and type in "where do I find themes for kdm" into google | 20:13 |
| antman__ | ok | 20:13 |
| epimeth | if that doesn't help I'll tell you that you can find them at www.kde-look.org | 20:13 |
| epimeth | antman__: ^ | 20:14 |
| antman__ | lol ok | 20:14 |

| alarm | same as always, facebook , youtube | 21:43 |

| alarm | mm no thats something i did not try , let me do it | 21:43 |
| Captain_Haddock | alarm: if you like, try installing the firefox-3.5 package . | 21:43 |

| ubottu | firefox-3.5 (source: firefox-3.5): safe and easy web browser from Mozilla. In component universe, is optional. Version 3.5.1+build1+nobinonly-0ubuntu0.9.04.1 (jaunty), package size 907 kB, installed size 3524 kB | 21:43 |
| alarm | well is it available ? at the moment i just install things that appear on my update list | 21:43 |
| Captain_Haddock | it's a separate package, so you won't see an update for 3.0 at the moment... It'll become the official firefox for Karmic when it's released. | 21:44 |
| === liberfiasco is now known as libervisco | ||
| alarm | so , i have to add an extra repo ? | 21:45 |
| MrJaxon | if you remove it then reinstall from adept you should be able to see if there's any other package to chose from. Or you could dl it directly from mozilla maybe. | 21:45 |
| alarm | ok i will purge that one, and install the new one for firefox website | 21:45 |
| Captain_Haddock | alarm: probably not.. just type sudo apt-get install firefox-3.5 | 21:45 |
| Captain_Haddock | the two versions are able to coexist. | 21:46 |
| alarm | Captain_Haddock, something is weird with firefox-3.5 | 21:47 |
| alarm | look at this list please http://pastebin.com/m175db8b5 | 21:48 |
| alarm | why do all those packages need to be installed ? 150mb of libs ? dont get it | 21:48 |
| alarm | any ideas ? | 21:51 |
| MrJaxon | not a clue, sry.. | 21:54 |
| alarm | i dont get it why 3.5 needs all that stuff | 21:56 |
| MrJaxon | nope, that's just weird man.. | 21:57 |
| Dragnslcr | I've been wondering that myself | 21:58 |
| alarm | something is not ok with the dependencies for sure , this page claims something different http://packages.ubuntu.com/jaunty/firefox-3.5 | 21:59 |
| alarm | that solves the problem alarm@rockpc:/usr/share/man$ sudo apt-get install firefox-3.5 --no-install-recommends | 22:01 |
| alarm | 22:01 | |
| alarm | but still :/ | 22:01 |
| ActionParsnip | alarm: it installed fine here | 22:01 |
| alarm | ActionParsnip, well i am not telling any lies, i am showing you apt-get install package list showed me to install | 22:01 |
| alarm | it almost needs the gnome window manager to run ? somethings fishy | 22:01 |
| ActionParsnip | alarm: it install ubuntu-branding which depends on a tonne of gnome stuff | 22:03 |
| alarm | with no-install-recommends i get just those 3 dependencies firefox-3.5 firefox-3.5-branding xulrunner-1.9.1 | 22:03 |
| alarm | well dont want 150 tonnes of stuff just for a browser :) | 22:03 |
| alarm | i'd better then just download the binary from the official website rather then installing the deb | 22:04 |
| ActionParsnip | alarm: ive seen a lot of kde users do that | 22:04 |
| alarm | could be, but still i find it a wrong tactic :) i dont blame you. but just because i need windows calculator doesnt mean i have to install the whole MS office suite | 22:05 |

| maco | nico045: ah lshw. are you looking for wireless or wired? | 23:27 |
| quassel208 | I am helpfull, just check lauchpad and kde bugs, exspeccialy lauchpad doesnt fix anything, they just label every 6 month there distro stable even when its not, crashes, freezes, overloading, and thats called stable, now wonder people are afraid | 23:28 |
| maco | quassel208: we try to get things stable by release time. if people would rather whine than help us fix things, we can't do anything about it, now can we? | 23:29 |
| nico045 | here is the thing. I own the 2wired modem sent by at&t to me that has the ability to be wired and a wireless for my laptop. the computer i am having problems with is wired to the modem and i am attempting to fix it by being on here via the wireless. lol | 23:29 |
| quassel208 | Funny thing is 9.10 is evening more stable then what kubuntu calls stable | 23:29 |
| maco | quassel208: triage bugs, submit patches, etc. we will welcome the help. | 23:30 |
| maco | nico045: ah ok. and this is using ethernet right? not dialup? | 23:30 |
| nico045 | yes | 23:30 |
| maco | nico045: ok. if you run "ifconfig" does it say anything about eth0? | 23:31 |
| quassel208 | maco, I bugged all problems, and since 8.04 I came to conclusion they dont care, they just let it be for 6 months and then mabye its fixed in next release, which makes me end up running 9.10, which is more stable in use | 23:31 |
| maco | quassel208: how many people are employed to work on kubuntu? | 23:31 |
| maco | any guesses? | 23:31 |
| nico045 | no | 23:32 |
| quassel208 | like I know, why not just backport if they fix it in 9.10, thats what I not got | 23:32 |
| quassel208 | 5 | 23:32 |
| maco | 1 | 23:32 |
| quassel208 | people? | 23:32 |

| quassel208 | 1? | 23:32 |
| maco | everybody else does this in their free time after work or school | 23:32 |

| maco | there are a couple people--not programmers--working on coming up with ideas for interface stuff in the design team who know about kde, but as far as developers...? | 23:33 |
| maco | nico045: can you try "ifconfig eth0 up"? | 23:34 |
| quassel208 | as far as I know, ubuntu doesnt do much there self, they just adopt and take all the credit | 23:34 |
| maco | quassel208: now, you can either continue telling those of us who do this in whatever time remains after work, school, and homework, that we are useless, or you can help us | 23:34 |
| nico045 | permission denied | 23:35 |
| maco | nico045: sudo ifconfig eth0 up, in that case | 23:35 |
| quassel208 | maco sometimes when I am mood I help, but none off the bugs I bugged are getting worked on, so just let it do the people who know it so good | 23:36 |
| maco | bugs you bugged? | 23:36 |
| maco | bugs you reported you mean? | 23:36 |
| quassel208 | yes I do | 23:36 |
| nico045 | when i enter it in it just comes around to the nico line again | 23:36 |
| maco | we've got a ton of bug reports. how about helping fix the bugs? | 23:36 |
| quassel208 | english is not my native laugange | 23:36 |
| maco | nico045: ok, if you "ifconfig" after doing that, does eth0 show? | 23:36 |
| nico045 | yes | 23:37 |
| quassel208 | maco I have a life, as boring that seems, I am not going fix, I try use kubuntu for daily use | 23:37 |
| maco | quassel208: guess what? i have a life too. | 23:38 |
| maco | we all have lives | 23:38 |
| quassel208 | found some bugs today, but okay solved by freezing the grub package | 23:38 |
| quassel208 | hopefully solved | 23:38 |
| maco | nico045: ok if you run "sudo dhclient eth0" what happens? (dont paste here, paste in http://paste.ubuntu.com) | 23:38 |
| nico045 | i am being subjected to learning this because of my spouse's disabilities and kubuntu is the most user friendly for him | 23:39 |
| maco | nico045: im not sure why it was down to begin with, but once it's up, it should be usable | 23:39 |
| quassel208 | or else I end up reinstalling again, did today 3 times, I just feel forced using the expermintel version, because the graphic problems are fixed in 9.10 | 23:39 |
| nceterval | Hello, opera 10.00.4502 (qt4) is not working for me after an ugrade of Kubuntu. Can anyone help me figure out why? Here is an strace: http://pastebin.ca/1504948 | 23:39 |
| maco | quassel208: 9.04's intel graphics issues were problems with X, period. yes, 9.10 is beautiful for that | 23:40 |
| quassel208 | and yes they are already fixed in 9.10, because I can feel it that its fixed | 23:40 |
| sava | hi does anybody know why keyboard layouts are limited to 4 only? | 23:41 |
| maco | nico045: does your wired show up in the network manager plasmoid now? | 23:41 |
| sava | it used to be unlimited in kde 3.x | 23:41 |
| quassel208 | normally I would have freezes or graphics effects slowing down, now not, but problem I had today was in grub, it said it didnt find floppy or what | 23:42 |
| neversfelde | quassel208: Seems to be a gerneral discussion, which belongs in #kubuntu-offtopic. Thank you. | 23:42 |
| quassel208 | so that meant reinstall and lock grub from upgrading | 23:43 |
| neversfelde | s/gerneral/general | 23:43 |
| quassel208 | jawholl die furher | 23:43 |
| neversfelde | ? | 23:44 |
| maco | neversfelde: that would be childishly calling us nazis | 23:45 |
| nico045 | http://paste.ubuntu.com/228647/ | 23:46 |
| nico045 | here is what it says | 23:46 |
| nico045 | should i try rebooting? | 23:47 |
| maco | nico045: shouldnt need to | 23:47 |
| maco | nico045: ah its fine. your wired is connected now | 23:47 |
| maco | nico045: do you see a thing in the panel that looks like a plug? if you click that, it should let you configure your network from now on | 23:48 |
| nico045 | thank you so much for all your help | 23:49 |
| nico045 | it is working perfectly. just one more question | 23:49 |
| maco | mmhmm? | 23:50 |
| nico045 | we use to have an icon that was a green globe when connected will i get that back or will i have to guess at my connection? | 23:50 |
| Okay | when I open my trash, the empty button is white-out. Any suggestions? | 23:50 |
| maco | nico045: are you used to knetworkmanager or the plasmoid? | 23:51 |
| nico045 | i think it is knetworkmanager. i know we have kubuntu 8.10 | 23:51 |
| maco | nico045: ah ok. then it wouldnt be a plug. sorry im used to the 9.04 way. check to see if knetworkmanager is running "ps -ef | grep network" | 23:52 |
| cor | dolphin. split pane button always highlight the wrong (active) side. insane. how to fix? | 23:54 |
| nico045 | 6006 5585 0 18:54 pts/1 00:00:00 grep network | 23:54 |
| nico045 | that is waht is says | 23:54 |
| maco | ok well just hit alt+f2 and type "knetworkmanager" then hit enter | 23:55 |
| nico045 | nothing comes up | 23:56 |
| cor | assuming that's still your hotkey combo for the run command | 23:56 |
| nico045 | fo i need the quotes? | 23:57 |
| maco | no leave off the quotes | 23:57 |
| maco | er yeah i did assume that | 23:57 |
| maco | alright open that menu withthe K on it | 23:57 |
| maco | type knetworkmanager in the search box | 23:57 |
| nico045 | ok still nothing | 23:57 |
| maco | maybe its not installed... | 23:57 |
| maco | sudo apt-get install knetworkmanager | 23:57 |
| nico045 | it want to search the web for it but nothing for the system | 23:58 |
| Okay | when I open my trash, the empty button is white-out. Any suggestions? | 23:58 |
| maco | nico045: sounds like not installed then | 23:58 |
