[02:18] I think a clean install would be the lazy way [02:18] Dragnslcr, does "lsb_release -a" work with any distro?

[03:16] afeijo: dpkg-query -l *2.6.28* sure u have all u need? [03:17] Fanfare: what do I need to look into that command result? [03:19] afeijo: linux-headers-2.6.28-13-generic linux-image-2.6.28-13-generic linux-restricted-modules-2.6.28-13-generic [03:19] and have grub boot into that one, not any previous [03:21] Fanfare: dpkg returned 4 lines pointing to 2.6.28-13.45, 3 have the words you mentioned [03:21] I will locate grup file [03:22] damn, grub is pointing to .11 not .13 [03:22] I have to edit it? I dont like to mess with grub :) [03:22] oi [03:23] afeijo: hm, each kernelupdate should automagicaly update grub config, so if u never changed grub then that should not be the problem... [03:23] Fanfare: how to force the kernel update? [03:24] afeijo: sudo apt-get update then sudo apt-get upgrade, then sudo apt-get dist-upgrade [03:25] last one upgrades also kernels [03:25] 0 packages :( [03:25] what about sudo apt-get install linux-image-2.6.xx-yy-generic [03:26] quick question, is there a means to get the functionality in KDE so that when I drag window to edge of a screen it moves to adjacent virtual desktop? I had this in GNOME and haven't been able to locate it in the desktop effects or window behaviour menu. [03:26] can anyone tell me how to install man pages for c commands? man fseek has no entry, as does man fopen, etc. [03:26] afeijo- take a look at /boot/grub/menu.lst [03:26] I try that one, it says I already have 28.13 [03:26] Dragnslcr: I did [03:26] Dragnslcr: no mention to 28.13 there [03:26] and if I apt-get remove 28.13 and install again? [03:27] afeijo: but leave the running kernel :-) [03:27] It's not that hard to add the option [03:27] Basically just copy/paste a previous one [03:29] afeijo: is 28.13 in /boot/grub/menu.lst ? [03:29] Fanfare: no, it is now I added [03:31] time to reboot... wish me luck [03:31] update-grub ... [03:31] afeijo: good luck [03:32] update-grub? runing [03:32] cool [03:33] as sudo i guess sudo update-grub that should update grub config to latest installed kernel... i think... [03:33] it did changed some stuff :) [03:34] ok... sounds good? does it look good? [03:35] it does, said that the new kernel was found [03:35] I just did apt-get upgrade in kubuntu 9.04 and sound stopped working, anyone know what's going on? [03:35] it gave an error about /dev/sda8, I dont have that partition anymore, but I cant find sda8 on the menu.lst, funny [03:36] brb [03:36] afeijo: gues thats somewhere in a map or device file in /boot/ dir [03:40] it worked! thanks guys [03:40] afeijo: welcome to new kernel? [03:40] yep [03:40] now vbox is running [03:42] oops, time to note those tips in my tips file :) [03:46] does any1 know the name of the swedish ubuntu channel? [03:46] ok so does anyone know why when i watch a video file on any player reguardless of view size it goes black. I have compiz on and and my menu open effect goes up to a black screen after a minute of watching. if i move the mouse it goes back to teh show. Its not my screensaver [03:46] ! [03:46] Sorry, I don't know anything about countrycode> [03:47] !sw [03:47] Sorry, I don't know anything about sw [03:48] PLANETARY: i ahd the same trubble awile back. but it went good after i had installed codecs and my new drivers.

But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-) [03:49] So, anyone on know answer to my KDE dragging windows across screen edges to other desktops question? [03:49] starcraftman: could u requestion? [03:50] plagueboi: what do you mean? I have teh kubuntu restricted extras and have my restricted drivers [03:51] Fanfare: quick question, is there a means to get the functionality in KDE so that when I drag window to edge of a screen it moves to adjacent virtual desktop? I had this in GNOME and haven't been able to locate it in the desktop effects or window behaviour menu. [03:51] Fanfare: Requestion isn't a word btw :p [03:51] starcraftman: sry no native en :-) [03:54] PLANETARY: ehm.. okey, well i didnt find a right away direction" to fix it. i jsut tryed to update everything about vlc/totem etc. and drivers and codec pacates. and after a reboot 1-2h later it worked. [03:56] hi. [03:56] ne1 know of a dbus kwallet bash howto anywhere? I cant find it on google. [03:57] Fanfare: So no ideas? You know what I mean yes? It's very useful for just going one screen left or right with a window. [03:58] starcraftman: i know i've seen it somewhen... It works here on my desktop, but cant find it again... [03:58] starcraftman: still looking... [03:59] starcraftman: what is adjacent? [04:01] starcraftman: ok, got it... [04:01] Fanfare: Adjacent means next to, basically I just want to be able to drag a window over the edge onto a different virtual desktop (I have 6). [04:01] starcraftman: rightclick on a titlebar [04:02] windowbehaviour [04:03] starcraftman: select (4th) activation [04:04] ok did an update with the update manager and i will reboot to see if it helps [04:04] starcraftman: select something like "automagicaly navigate to opposite side" [04:09] Fanfare: When you say 4th activation, you mean tab on the left? That says focus. I see the "traverse windows on all desktop" checkbox but when clicked, it doesn't let me do the dragging across desktops. I just checked and it has to do with Alt + Tab selection, meaning it lets you either alt + tab by the desktop your on or all of them. [04:10] Fanfare: Any other ideas? [04:10] starcraftman: i'll do a screeny [04:10] Fanfare: K [04:11] yay the update did it!

If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit [04:12] so now electricsheep, any takers? [04:13] Fanfare: Hmm, the image you put didn't work. The flood bot refused it. [04:15] starcraftman: that wasnt me:-) i was just looking for a service ... [04:15] starcraftman: here it is http://imagebin.org/56957 [04:18] Fanfare: Ya, I have that option enabled already, it doesn't seem to be one I want, still not able to drag across screens. At top of section, says window switching, I think mostly has to do with the alt + tab functionality. [04:19] starcraftman: i tested. This option allowes me to move a window from one virt. desktop to the other... [04:20] Fanfare: Well that's peculiar! [04:20] Fanfare: And you can just drag em left and right as you want? [04:20] yes [04:24] starcraftman: it works left/right, up/down, with and without compositioning [04:27] Fanfare: Hmmm, that's puzzling, I just took off the compositing effects too and it still no work. That's really weird! [04:29] Fanfare: You using standard 9.04 with KDE 4.2? I can't really think of any change that would stop me.... [04:29] Fanfare: I'll book up the live CD and see if that lets me do this. [04:30] PLANETARY: did it work? :P === krisasus is now known as sikpits87 [04:34] starcraftman: i use kde 4.2.96 (kde 4.3 RC2) on jounty [04:36] hello [04:37] hello, need a hand?

I just booted a clean CD and when I enabled the [04:40] well... it WORKS, but I just wanna make sure my graphic drivers are loaded right. [04:40] Fanfare: option still no luck. Must be something I'm missing. [04:41] amp you can change to 9.10 [04:41] i think if you run update-manager -d you can find everything you need to update [04:41] kubuntu 8.10 on an older machine had better graphics than 9.04 on a new one. And I'm gettin really annoyed with the crappyness of it. Even without the effects. [04:42] what graphics card do you have [04:42] a ati or nvidia? [04:42] back sorry [04:42] if you have a via then it is a little buggy [04:43] intel on a laptop [04:43] i have 9.04 but i dont know if i can run mce on it [04:43] compaq, and so was my older one. [04:43] you can check in the repo to see if there is a driver update [04:44] my audio wasn't working til i manually added an intel module to modprobe.d/alsa.conf so i'm not so sure, maybe there's a problem with the graphics kernel module / driver [04:44] i have a athlon 64 4000+,512mb ddr2 geforce6100 [04:44] eatThisAndDie- there are known problems with the Intel drivers for 9.04 [04:45] hah. ok.

[04:45] nope i have the mce kubuntu distro [04:45] i think its like 704 [04:46] Dragnslcr: sorry for the silly question, but where do I get the updates? [04:46] yes it did work. videos play fine! [04:46] starcraftman: argh:found [04:46] sorry i never played with mce so i cant tell you [04:46] starcraftman: systemsettings [04:47] plagueboi: it does work. videos play fine!

I don't understand what you mean lower part... [04:51] starcraftman: k [04:52] Fanfare: Did set grid to a screen edge, that's nice and lets me drag windows to any on the grid. But a bit of a nuissance when just moving one window to desktop one space away. [04:55] starcraftman: http://imagebin.org/56961 [04:59] got to go to bed, bb [04:59] Fanfare: Well there's definitely a problem, you've 5 tabs on the left white pane, and I've only 4. I'm missing the one between "virtual/multiple desktops" and "screensave" [04:59] k, night Fanfare. I think I'll post on the forums, maybe somoene can help me there. [04:59] starcraftman: good luck...

[05:39] may you please follow advice already given?

You are connecting to another PC directly via Ethernet and eventually want to share your 3G Internet connection with both PCs. Is that right? [07:10] eMyller|busy: you must configure both PCs to see each other [07:10] Captain_Haddock: also [07:11] eMyller|busy: also, what? [07:11] Captain_Haddock: he meant "that too" [07:11] oh [07:12] ty, Mamarok [07:12] i need to use gobby with the other pc [07:12] and share some other dev tools [07:12] collaborative [07:12] eMyller|busy: do you have a LAN cable inserted into both PCs? Are the Ethernet port lights on? [07:13] eMyller|busy: are you using firestarter? [07:13] eMyller|busy: http://www.fs-security.com/docs/connection-sharing.php [07:13] Captain_Haddock: our ports don't have lights [07:14] bwah :( [07:14] eMyller|busy: righto... Have you tried giving your ethernet interfaces IP addresses? [07:14] strange, eth ports normally always have lights, right beneath the connector [07:15] Mamarok: we're on laptops, and rarely i see laptops with lights [07:15] eMyller|busy: both my laptops have a light on the eth0 port [07:15] one Lenovo, once Acer [07:16] one AmazonPC, other Itautec here [07:17] oh, well. [07:18] plagueboi_: i'm reading that, thansk [07:18] eMyller|busy: sudo apt-get install firestarter -> and then read -> http://www.fs-security.com/docs/connection-sharing.php [07:18] eMyller|busy: kk, np [07:18] google is your friend :P === plagueboi_ is now known as plagueboi [07:19] i'm already with fs installed === oobe is now known as o] === o] is now known as Oo === Oo is now known as `0OoOoO0OoOoO0` [07:22] great. i got eth0 running, but it's with 'no carrier' again [07:23] eMyller|busy: :( === `0OoOoO0OoOoO0` is now known as oobe [07:23] i'm scared with this thing [07:25] I'm trying to get the get_flash_videos rtmpdump deb package working but when I try to get a brightcove video it say Data::AMF pacakge is needed. DOes anybody what that actual package might be in the ubuntu repos? or if there even is an ubuntu package for it [07:25] plagueboi, Mamarok, Captain_Haddock: ifconfig says it's up again. knetworkmanager doesn't. [07:25] aw. [07:26] "eMyller|busy: righto... Have you tried giving your ethernet interfaces IP addresses?" [07:27] Captain_Haddock: how would i give it addresses? [07:27] i created a connection in knetworkmanager but it doesn't connect [07:27] may a networking restart help here? [07:28] ...no. [07:28] i think that all my problem is the knetworkmanager. [07:28] eMyller|busy: if you don't give your eth0 and IP address, it cannot connect to anything else. There should be an option in network manager to add a static IP. [07:28] do this for both PCs. [07:29] Captain_Haddock: there *is*, i added it and tried to connect to the connection i created [07:29] but it doesn't [07:29] eMyller|busy: well, what did you give it? [07:30] Captain_Haddock: 192.168.101.1, mask 255.255.255.0 [07:30] my eth0 is up, isn't it? http://dpaste.com/70761/ [07:30] and did you save it or whatever (I don't have network manager here, so I am unfamiliar with the GUI) [07:31] Captain_Haddock: yes [07:31] if it's up, then it should have an IP address associated with it. [07:31] Captain_Haddock: can i add it without the gui? [07:31] let's try [07:31] i'm about to throw this thing away [07:32] i hate it, but i must cuz i'm on 3g :| [07:32] type ifconfig eth0 down [07:32] ...done [07:32] something with /etc/network/interfaces? [07:33] ifconfig eth0 192.168.101.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 up [07:33] Captain_Haddock: done, i got response! :D [07:33] with ping [07:33] ifconfig [07:34] cool [07:34] make sure both PCs have their IP addresses via ifconfig [07:34] Captain_Haddock: http://dpaste.com/70762/ [07:34] nice :) [07:35] and the other PC? [07:35] Captain_Haddock: testing there [07:37] eMyller|busy: got it working? went to make coffe. [07:37] still not [07:38] Captain_Haddock: did exactly the same thing, but with 192.168.101.2 and got no response :| [07:38] may i restart it? [07:39] eMyller|busy: im sitting and reading up on "http://vidner.net/martin/software/cnetworkmanager/". but try, you never know... [07:40] plagueboi: ty [07:42] eMyller|busy: is this the exact problem you have? (direct quote) " Once again, test of your clients can ping their linux box. If they can set their DNS and default gateway to use the linux box. Currently you have a DSL router thats probably giving out DHCP ip's. " [07:43] plagueboi: i'm able to ping my box [07:43] but i'm trying to ping the other box *in* the other box but nothing [07:43] Captain_Haddock: i just put eth0 down there then set it up with another ip.

[07:58] any ideas? [07:59] Updating via KpackageKit [07:59] jemand: have you updated to the new firefox?

[08:01] weird, there is no 'nmap' here :P [08:02] just the normal Update to 3.0.12 [08:02] includes in KUBUNTU [08:02] may i set a gateway here? [08:03] jemand: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/upgrade.html [08:03] OK [08:03] I thought I stay to the provided KUBUNTU Update [08:04] I'll try the new 3.5 [08:04] now [08:04] jemand: the new firefox is faster =) [08:04] eMyller|busy: sec :P [08:04] I know, it's running in VitualBox under WinXP [08:04] here [08:05] jemand: you can install firefox3.5 in /opt [08:05] eMyller|busy: so you can't assign the IP address to PC #2? [08:05] Captain_Haddock: it's assigned [08:05] jemand: sudo apt-get install firefox-3.5 [08:05] jemand: both versions can coexist [08:06] Captain_Haddock: isn't firefox-3.5 package still shiretoko? [08:06] eMyller|busy: and listed in ifconfig? So both PCs have IP addresses? [08:06] eMyller|busy: yes, but works fine. [08:06] Captain_Haddock: yes. but they dont see each other [08:06] can you please pastebin both the ifconfigs? [08:07] also, if you have firestarter installed on either PC.. remove it for now.

[08:11] Captain_Haddock: yup [08:11] try pinging again [08:11] Captain_Haddock: each other? [08:12] yes [08:13] Captain_Haddock: destination host unreachable [08:13] both [08:14] this is with " ping 192.168.0.1 "? [08:15] Captain_Haddock: my box, yes [08:16] eMyller|busy: if the IP addresses are set, the interfaces are up and there are no firewalls blocking pings, it probably points to cable fault. Do you have a spare crossover? [08:17] no :| [08:21] eMyller|busy: alot of cables are crossover now days. you might just not know that they are crossover.

[13:51] of course, it will probably crash the machine long before the wifi gets initialized [13:52] bazhang: sometimes the plasma-desktop simply broke down and only after a restart of it, which was done automatically, it was there again [13:53] but what is even more anoying is that 3d-animations are awfully slow and my cpu starts computing like hell. [13:53] does anyone know what to do about my problem? because in #kde nobody answered, and I was there for quite a long time [13:53] cor: there is a warning about restricted drivers not working [13:53] problem? [13:54] I have a little problem with KDE playground. I have installed some applets from kde playground, but they do not appear in the Add widgets dialog, even after restarting plasma/the computer. what to do about it? im using kubuntu 9.04 with kde 4.3 rc2 [13:54] is the RTL8187 restricted? [13:55] oh right, that's more a general thing. gotcha. I must remember to look for that deb, too [13:56] lspci -nn | grep VGA Hystoriker what does that return [13:56] 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: ATI Technologies Inc RV370 5B60 [Radeon X300 (PCIE)] [1002:5b60] [13:57] do I have such a difficult problem? because nobody from #kde nor #kubuntu answers me... [13:57] Vistaus, what is kde playground [13:58] bazhang: under hardy and intrepid the x300 was still in fglrx, but it was dropped for jaunty :-( [13:58] Hystoriker, its odd, that card should have decent 3D support https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RadeonDriver [13:59] bazhang: "The staging ground for up and coming KDE applications which aren't yet ready to be released into the wild." but there are quite some plasmoids in there which are quite stable [13:59] but they don't show up on Add widgets after installing them... [13:59] Hi all ! [13:59] Vistaus, do you have a link? info on how to install them? [14:00] you just install them the normal way. cmake - DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=`kde4-config --prefix` .., then make and then sudo make install [14:01] ah you have to compile them [14:01] yes [14:01] Vistaus, which specific plasmoids? [14:01] if I compile a widget from kde-look, then they show up in Add widgets. but not from kdeplayground. [14:02] train-clock, keren, openbrain etc. [14:02] bazhang: i give you an example. presume i use as desktop-background the globe. the cpu-load goes up slightly by just using that. when i click into it and start to turn the globe, my cpu-fan starts screaming and the cpu calculates a lot. but it seems as if the gpu does not help at all. [14:02] weird [14:02] indeed [14:03] also the whole systems seems to react quite slow, especially when i switch between different pograms [14:04] i know, my bugreport here is a little unspecific, but i dont know, how to be more precise, sorry [14:04] http://techbase.kde.org/Projects/Plasma/Plasmoids#Train_Clock Vistaus is it in the correct location? [14:05] Vistaus, seems train clock is looking for a packager as the previous individual is too busy [14:05] but trainclock is just an example. there are many more widgets in kde playground [14:05] it it is the correct location btw [14:06] seems quite nifty :) [14:07] Hystoriker, have you taken a look at the link above? followed the steps to correctly get the radeon driver installed etc.? [14:08] bazhang: yes i have, thank you. the output of glxinfo for "direct rendering" is yes. so obvously it is working [14:10] Hystoriker, must be some other issue then, something about the 3D effects; is this with compiz, or just the kde4 effects [14:11] i dont think that i have activated compiz (how do i know?) [14:11] bazhang: compositing is disabled [14:14] Hystoriker, sorry not to know more about ati (I have nvidia); perhaps dialing down some of the kde4 effects [14:14] hello! [14:15] hi [14:15] I'm trying to get wifi working on a laptop running kubuntu 9.04 [14:15] it has a broadcom card :-/ [14:15] wide_awake, which chipset? what does lspci show (in Konsole) and can you see wlan0 or the like in ifconfig [14:16] 4306 [14:16] !broadcom [14:16] Help with Broadcom bcm43xx can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx [14:16] wide_awake, ^^ [14:16] lspci shows it as did that... [14:16] oops [14:16] did that [14:16] lspci shows BCM4306 [14:17] yep that would be the link above wide_awake [14:17] I got as far as "check if it worked" [14:17] unfortunately, it didn't [14:18] wide_awake, what does ifconfig show ( paste.ubuntu.com ) with the output === yoann is now known as Bobb [14:20] bazhang: http://paste.ubuntu.com/230402/ [14:21] wide_awake, do you have a wifi hotspot to test it on? does iwconfig show anything? [14:21] bazhang: it sort of works, but it can't get a DHCP lease [14:21] wide_awake, encrypted or open [14:21] open [14:21] sudo dhclient wlan0 returns no offers? [14:22] right [14:22] did you install the driver wide_awake ? [14:22] yeah [14:22] fw-cutter iirc [14:22] bazhang: sorry for asking again. but when i for example use an opengl-screensaver i have only around 10fps [14:22] I installed the fwcutter thing, and it auto-downloaded the drigers [14:23] Hystoriker, no need to be sorry :) I am just not the best source of info for that [14:24] bazhang: u have helped a lot already, do u know where i can ask for more help? [14:26] Hystoriker, well you can ask here every so often, and also in #radeon ; not sure about #ubuntu as I'm not clear if this is a KDE/Kubuntu bug or a problem with ATI [14:27] barbapa: thanx, i'll try that [14:27] bazhang: i'll try that [14:29] bazhang: weird thing is I was able to connect one time the other day. Since then, no dice. [14:30] is there a way to "forget" former DHCP leases? [14:30] wide_awake, so the drivers are working then; did you associate with the ap? [14:30] wide_awake, no need to do that, it will write a new pid [14:30] when it doesn't receive any dhcp offers, it tries the IP it got last time [14:31] that's the only difference between now and before (when it worked) that I can tell [14:32] http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=713111 wide_awake here is how to associate with ap (via command line) [14:33] that says how to install wbar? [14:35] whoops my mistake wide_awake [14:35] http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=571188 wide_awake [14:36] ah, thanks [14:36] :) [14:36] helping in another channel, got confused :) [14:36] heh [14:40] bazhang: do I need to stop the NetworkManager app before manually configuring the wifi connection? [14:41] wide_awake: sometimes it works without stopping it [14:41] wide_awake, not that I know of; setting it in cli is not too hard once you read some of those commands (like in that link) [14:42] still no DHCP offers :( [14:42] * wide_awake tries static IP [14:45] bleh [14:49] why would a kernel update be "blocked" ? [14:52] thunderbird 3 is available thru apt-get ? [14:53] waakks [14:53] thunderbird 3 isn't available anywhere, is it? [14:53] !ping me [14:53] Sorry, I don't know anything about ping me [14:53] !latest [14:53] 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. [14:53] its beta I guess [14:53] \quit [14:54] has anyone had "blocked" updates in the update manager? my kernel + headers says blocked [14:55] jimmy51_home: same here [14:55] what's the deal with that? [14:55] dunno [14:57] held back updates are not uncommon [14:57] nothing to worry about [14:59] ok... maybe that's not my issue then [14:59] My "panel" seems to respond slowly. When I click a program listed on it, it takes a couple seconds to actually select the program, or the window, or bring up the window list. Any ideas? [14:59] i'm trying to install virtualbox, but it says my headers weren't found [15:00] jimmy51_home- it's because the update requires new packages to be installed (that's the way kernel updates work in Ubuntu, but it's not limited to kernel updates) [15:00] i checked uname -r, and saw my kernel... but there's no .27 linux headers available... just .28 [15:00] jimmy51_home- you can do "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" to install blocked updates [15:01] Dragnslcr: would that be the way to go, or should i stick with .27 and figure out why there isn't a headers package for it? [15:01] jimmy51_home, jaunty? [15:01] jaunty [15:01] hmmm shiretoko freezing too much [15:02] I don't think 9.04 ever had a .27 anywhere in the kernel version [15:02] * afeijo found thunderbird 3 beta 3 :p [15:02] Dragnslcr: 2.6.27-7-generic [15:03] that's what uname -r gives me [15:04] wth is that? Maximum number of clients reached dolphin: cannot connect to X server :0 [15:04] jimmy51_home, what does lsb_release -a show [15:04] jimmy51_home- are you sure you have Ubuntu 9.04? [15:04] Hystoriker, any help in #radeon ? [15:04] An update to my problem, Xorg is taking 24-25% of my CPU occasionally. I'm running a quad-core so 25% is 1 CPU. [15:05] Description: Ubuntu 9.04 [15:05] it's 9.04 for sure [15:14] My "panel" seems to respond slowly. When I click a program listed on it, it takes a couple seconds to actually select the program, or the window, or bring up the window list. System Monitor only shows Xorg going to 25% of my CPU usage occasionally, I'm on a quad-core so 25% is 1 CPU. Any ideas? [15:16] bobbob1016: see the output of "top" and "free -m" commands [15:18] EagleScreen: Ok, I was originally using Top, but someone here suggested System Monitor, I'll do top and get back to you [15:20] EagleScreen: Top gave me basically the same thing, but I didn't notice this before Mem: Total 2983 Used 2961, swap is almost full too [15:20] Plasma is taking 500+ is that normal? [15:21] not [15:21] plasma or another process is eating your RAM [15:22] a bug is probablt causing more memory allocations than needed [15:22] what is your KDE version? [15:22] are u using kget? [15:23] Not using kget, at least I don't think I am [15:23] Checking the version now [15:24] I think I'm, running 4.2.2. according to synaptic (I searched for kdebase and it says 4.2.2) [15:25] can you reproduce this issue? or does it dissapear if you restart KDE? [15:26] It has been constant really. My machine has been acting like this for a while [15:26] It acts up more if I copy a lot of files/one big file across hard drives. Going to update to 4.2.4 from the channel header [15:27] bobbob1016: Are you running ext4? [15:27] Yeah [15:27] Does the same with ext3 partitions though [15:27] I think [15:27] bobbob1016: That is one of the bugs with that filesystem under the kernel in 9.04 [15:27] !releasenotes [15:27] Ubuntu 9.04 (Jaunty Jackalope) release notes can be found here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/JauntyJackalope/ReleaseNotes [15:29] Pici: Any way I can go from ext4 to ext3, without a format? iirc ext3 to ext2 was sort of possible [15:30] bobbob1016: You may be able to mount the drive as ext3, but I'm unsure if this is possible if the drive was created as ext4. [15:30] Pici: Kernel upgrade maybe then? [15:31] I am not sure if you can mount ut again as ext3 after mounting as ext4 [15:31] a kernel upgrade is recomendable for ext4 [15:32] I'll do that after I finish going from 4.2.2 to 4.2.4 [15:32] Any suggestions on a kernel version, or just the latest? [15:32] bobbob1016: KDE 4.3 will be released before the month ends, it will become with many fixes === kb is now known as Guest17784 [15:33] bobbob1016: are you using some module from linux-restricted-modules? [15:33] EagleScreen: Not that I know of, I'd check but just finishing the download of the 4.2.4 packages. [15:34] bobbob1016: if you do not use restricted drivers in linux-restricted-modules package, you can try doenload and install linux-2.6.30 packages from Debian Sid repository [15:35] EagleScreen: Restricted drivers as in my Nvidia driver? That is all that I'm using I can think of. [15:36] nvidia restricted driver comes in Ubuntu inside linux-restricted-modules package [15:37] EagleScreen: I'm actually running 185, iirc 180 is the latest in the ubuntu repos. [15:38] how did you installed 185? [15:38] * Smurphy probes for channel police ... [15:39] I tried via the installer, had problems, then I found a repo that had it. It listed it as 180 but the "version info" or whatever in synaptic said "185really" [15:40] nvidia-glx-180? [15:40] I'm not sure what you're asking. I'm running 185 [15:41] hi! i'm having trouble with my mouse in Jaunty. It's doing weird double clicking things and is quite annoying [15:41] i'm not sure how to fix it [15:41] i want to know what package or packages did you install, nvidia-glx-180? [15:42] Hi, I'm having a slight problem with a bash script I've written. Could anyone help me with it ? [15:42] seele: did you try rebooting? [15:42] vishesh: yes. You have it online somewhere ? [15:42] EagleScreen: I didn't install any packages. I added a repo, and did an upgrade. The upgrade called it 180 but it is actually 185 [15:42] bobbob1016: okay all clear [15:42] Uhm No .. but it's just 6 line. So I can post it here ? === william is now known as Guest97215 [15:43] vishesh: The Channel police won't like it ... [15:43] vishesh: use pastebin to paste the script [15:43] vishesh: send as PM -> /msg Smurphy etc. ... [15:43] Alright. === thunderstruck is now known as gnomefreak [15:44] bobbob1016: restart KDE to use fully KDE 4.2.4 [15:44] hi all [15:44] EagleScreen: yes, this is a persistent problem [15:45] seele: do u use mouse or touchpad? [15:45] EagleScreen: mouse [15:45] EagleScreen: I'm planning on it. Just waiting for the file transfer to finish, 106gig of 109.9gig [15:46] seele: when did it start? [15:46] EagleScreen: when i installed jaunty ;) [15:46] seele: after any update? [15:46] i did updates via apt-get as soon as i installed [15:46] Smurphy: Here : http://pastebin.com/m5ec17a30 [15:46] so i dont know if it existed before updates or not [15:46] vishesh: Yep. Looking at it. What's the problem now ? [15:47] seele: try: $ sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg [15:47] Smurphy: the output files are usually blank. [15:47] vishesh: What do you want to achieve with it ? [15:48] Smurphy: It's written in the comments. [15:48] vishesh: Ah- I see what the issue is. You work on the file you modify and want to write back to it. [15:48] Smurphy: Yes. [15:48] vishesh: you have to use a temp-file for that. write to a tmp-file first, the move the tmp-file to the original. [15:49] Smurphy: Then delete the orignal and rename the temp ? [15:49] Smurphy: Alright. Thanks [15:49] vishesh: no. easier. mv $k.tmp $k ;) [15:49] vishesh: of course - mv -f $k.tmp $k ;) [15:51] EagleScreen: 4.2.4 seems faster, I'll post back here if I get that issue again. [15:52] bobbob1016: you will have KDE 4.3 in 11 days [15:52] vishesh: Works here if I change the sed-line to: [15:53] 11 or 7? The end of the month is 7 days, unless that was a typo when you said end of the month. [15:53] Smurphy: I'm just trying it out. [15:53] sed 's:^#include.*"\(.*\)":#include <\1>:' $k > $k.tmp [15:53] Smurphy: Yes it does. [15:53] and add a line after it with: mv -fv $k.tmp $k [15:53] vishesh: it's the problem of the Henn and the Eg. Which one is there first :D You modify a file you are reading, but are also writing to the same file at the same time :D [15:54] bobbob1016: which repository have you used to update to 4.2.4? [15:54] EagleScreen: yay.. x doesnt work anymore [15:54] Smurphy: Yea, I guess so. Thanks a lot. It's working fine now. [15:54] EagleScreen: Last thing, I added the repo from the channel header, where is the authentication key. "deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-ppa/ppa/ubuntu jaunty main" [15:54] vishesh: You're welcome. :) [15:54] seele: then how are you here? [15:55] Smurphy: :-) [15:55] EagleScreen: irssi :P [15:56] (and a different computer, heh) [15:56] seele: what error does X gives you [15:57] EagleScreen: how do i find that out? i just have a login prompt [15:57] hi, I'm running karmic. I just did an dist-upgrade and somehow following packages were removed [15:57] bobbob1016: i think is this: http://keyserver.ubuntu.com:11371/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0x2836CB0A8AC93F7A [15:57] root@lati:~# apt-get dist-upgrade [15:57] Reading package lists... Done [15:57] Building dependency tree [15:57] Reading state information... Done [15:57] Calculating upgrade... Done [15:57] robert__: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [15:57] The following packages will be REMOVED: [15:58] robert__: are you running amd64? [15:58] can someone help [15:58] yes [15:59] EagleScreen: yes, I'm running amd64 [15:59] four KDE4.3 RC3 packages are still building for amd64, it cause the removal of the other packages in the upgrade by dependecies unmetted [16:00] ah ok. so if keep my system running until than and install them at this point I'm fine again [16:00] robert__: wait for some hours, the remaining packages will be uploaded soon, then unstall kubuntu-desktop package again and done [16:00] thx. [16:01] will do so [16:01] i mean, install kubuntu-desktop [16:01] seele: login prompt is good, you can do things [16:02] seele: xorg is failing to auto detect your graphics card [16:03] EagleScreen: ok.. what do i need to do [16:03] seele: do u know what is your graphics card model? [16:04] EagleScreen: just that it is nvidia [16:05] seele: can you remember if it uses restricted driver? [16:05] i used jockey to configure the non-free drivers if that's what you mean [16:06] yes [16:08] seele: you havge to configure it again in jockey [16:09] EagleScreen: that's fine, at this point i just want x working again [16:10] it would be nice to have a working mouse too.. but a window manager is more important at this point ;P [16:11] seele: login in the promt with your habitual user and password [16:11] and try running $sudo jockey-text [16:12] i dont have jockey-text, just jockey-kde [16:12] can we revert back to the default free driver and then i can configure the non-free driver after it works again? [16:13] seele: if you dont have free driver now.. what do u have activated now? [16:13] EagleScreen: i dont know.. i just rang the dpkg xorg reconfigure thing you told me [16:13] i had the free driver before i did that, i dont know if that is what is trying to be loaded or not [16:14] yes, that command re-auto-detect hawadware and reconfigures it [16:15] seele: try $startx [16:15] no go.. "no screens found" [16:15] "Unable to find a valid framebuffer device" [16:16] seele: try $sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phight xserver-xorg and later $stratx [16:16] $startx === jipang_menjerit is now known as jipangOffline [16:19] ah heh. [16:19] EagleScreen: so the first screen of the config tool says that "its pretty safe to say yes to this option" .. it's not. [16:19] I had said yes to use kernel framebuffer device interface and i guess that was the problem [16:20] are X running again? [16:20] yes [16:20] good [16:20] use jockey if you have to change your graphics driver [16:21] and how is the mouse? [16:21] still has the double click problem [16:21] you shoud probe another mouse [16:22] how do i do that? [16:22] lol [16:23] unplug your mouse, look for another mouse and plug in it [16:23] and, seele, go to #ubuntu-x for this kind of issues, it is a better place [16:24] ARGH [16:24] so the jockey driver thing said to reboot and now x doesnt work again! [16:24] * seele puts her head in her hands [16:25] seele: what did you do with kockey? [16:25] EagleScreen: enable my nvidia driver [16:25] enable restricted driver? [16:26] yes [16:26] which version? [16:26] 180 (recommended) [16:26] and did it work with it before? [16:26] yes, it's been working for a week [16:26] (with reboots) [16:27] Ubuntu does very strange things lol [16:27] go to #ubuntu-x channel for help in X issues [16:28] seele: you already know what to do to come back to free driver and have x running [16:29] resumming: lingin in prompt; $ sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phight xserver-xorg; reboot or $startx [16:29] EagleScreen: sigh ok. thanks for the help [16:39] LOL [16:40] EagleScreen: there is no InputDevice entry in my xorg.conf [16:41] hi i have problem with iso file , when i try to burn dvd iso image i got this error on wodim Errno: 5 (Input/output error), read track info scsi sendcmd: no error and i got same thing on k3b but on growisofs i got this error : -( /dev/sr0: media is not recognized as recordable DVD: 8 ..... any idea ?

[17:42] BluesKaj, so, there are two.. there is a firewall server on LAN... and a 3G connection with Huawei modem [17:43] what I need is, IF the huawai modem is connected (it's a ppp connection) then it should be default [17:45] akSeya: is no properties when i right click an icon [17:46] akSeya: theres a tab that says icon settings?

[20:14] im getting RC3 updates [20:14] that garbage spewed about a "rolling release" was nonsense [20:14] and unsolicticed [20:15] darthanubis: your question was about the main server, and there are no updates on the main server, unless it is a rolling release [20:15] Mamarok: which server do you use for your apt? [20:15] hence the answer was correct [20:15] Fanfare_: I believe festival is install allready how can I tell for sure [20:15] no that was NOT my question [20:15] [15:05] anyone get 4.3RC3 from the backports yet? [20:15] ok === ejat is now known as e-jat [20:16] of course i did not mean the regulat backports but the PPA backports [20:16] Mamarok: quick question,will the firefox from the firefox website work fine ? or should my friend install via apt? [20:16] I answered to that questin first [20:16] then you asked about the main repo [20:16] and i answered again [20:16] shadeslayer: install via apt, why not? [20:16] so please when someone take the time to answer, be polite [20:16] Pliskin: please [20:16] darthanubis: he installed via the site.. [20:16] the main repo question was not about the repo, it was about the main server [20:16] veck: simply try to reinstall with sudo apt-get install festival festival-voice [20:17] darthanubis: indeed, let's stay polite, we are all volunteers here [20:17] veck: if it is installed , it tells u [20:17] shadeslayer: that was uneccasry [20:17] so can we end that nitpicking on both sides, please? [20:17] darthanubis: unfourtunately he has already installed...how do i remove it now [20:17] you call it nitpicking, which is a pety description, I call it accuracy [20:17] darthanubis: update your sources, you will get the RC3 packages if you have the backports PPA activated [20:18] consider this closed [20:18] Fanfare_: http://pastebin.com/m7ada8b49 [20:18] sources are updated every time synaptic or adept or apt-get update is ran, and no updates have appeared hence why I started this line of inquiry to begin with [20:19] hi everyone...whats the etiquette here? is there anything besides the FAQ i'm to read before i ask a question? [20:19] I'll consider it closed once I have resolved my issue thanks [20:19] coyneder: read the topic, please [20:20] coyneder: also, this is a support only channel, discussion goes to #kubuntu-offtopic, and of course, the COde of Conduct applies in all *ubuntu channels [20:20] veck: ok, festival-voice was just a guess ... festival is installed [20:21] coyneder: but of course yu can ask support questions anytime :) [20:21] you* [20:21] Fanfare_: so were do i find it ? [20:22] veck: find and start kttsmgr in K-Menu [20:22] when i try to install kompose apt-get can't find the package even though i've set it to universe...does it simply no longer exist as a supported program? [20:23] coyneder: that's a strange command [20:23] Fanfare_: ok it started up [20:23] it should read sudo apt-get install [20:23] i mean i do this: sudo apt-get install kompose [20:23] !info kompose [20:23] Package kompose does not exist in jaunty [20:23] well, this is an old KDE3 application IIRC [20:23] thats fine [20:24] i'll stop trying to find it since it isn't findable [20:24] what does aptitude show kompose tell you? [20:24] let me do that [20:24] I can't find it, what application is it? [20:25] unable to locate package kompose === Quintasan__ is now known as Quintasan [20:25] veck: if it does not show a config dialog rightclick on the new icon in taskbar and select configure [20:25] veck: afk 1 min [20:26] coyneder: the last relase was for KDE 3.2, that's very, very old... [20:26] you can install it, but I don't recommend it, as it will need very old Qt packages [20:26] coyneder: which version of Kubuntu do you run? [20:27] no i'd rather not [20:27] i was looking for the most updated version but if the ujpdated version is that old i'll do without [20:27] i'm on jaunty [20:27] coyneder: I think you should go for the task manger in Kontact [20:27] veck: in config dialog choose 2nd tab "speaker" or similar [20:27] *shrug* i really like Expose on OS X and was hoping to get its equivalent here [20:28] Fanfare_: not showing a new icon in taskbar [20:28] but if i can't my world won't end haha [20:28] https://launchpad.net/~kubuntu-ppa/+archive/backport [20:28] Ok I see the new pages on the page [20:28] coyneder: well, there is enough choice out there :) [20:28] veck: did it show a config dialog? [20:28] but I think the problem is my transparent proxy giving me cached pages to apt [20:28] bye guys and gals.... [20:29] what is the command to have apt circumvent the proxy? [20:29] Fanfare_: no it trys to start up then disapears [20:29] thanks for your help mamarok! later everyone [20:29] darthanubis: what do you mean? [20:29] veck: hm, try running kttsmgr in console [20:30] you can just add the sources to your /etc/apt/sources.list: deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-ppa/backports/ubuntu jaunty main [20:30] and add this key to your keyring: [20:30] I'm behind a web proxy transparent, and I believe apt is not pulling the new kde4 packages because of it [20:30] gpg --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv 2836CB0A8AC93F7A [20:30] Mamarok: dude, of course I've done that [20:30] darthanubis: no, I think you just need to install the key [20:31] that is the first thing I did upon install to get the RC2 running [20:31] oh, didn't see your last answer, sry [20:31] I have the repo installed correctly, but can't seem to get updates to upgrade [20:31] np [20:32] I can't help you there, not savvy in proxy stuff, sry [20:32] This is just so weird [20:32] Fanfare_: cannot seem to figure out how to run it from command [20:32] Fanfare_: kdesudo kttsmgr [20:33] veck: u dont ned sudo for the manager!

[20:57] aliam: well, I haven't tested everything yet, you could try and move your ~/.kde/ folder and start KDE again [20:57] veck: could u please give output of pstree -p | grep tts again [20:57] brewmaster: you need to install the codecs [20:57] brewmaster: try right clicking the speaker icon and open kmix turn up volume [20:58] Fanfare_: shows both apps [20:58] Mamarok: i have ubuntu-restricted-extras already installed [20:58] Mamarok: the whole folder? is this dialog affected by this folder? [20:58] aliam : you can try to change ui.allow_platform_file_picker to false [20:59] veck: good, now go to systemsettings in K-Menu [20:59] Pliskin: yes i already did that, but all the other apps dont work [20:59] veck: accessibility [20:59] Oh, I thouht you use only firefox, sorry :/ [20:59] Fanfare_: ok [20:59] veck: the volume is at max [21:00] veck: the log in music plays fine, and the "test" works when I go into system settings [21:00] i also noticed that the dialog doesnt crash when it starts in any other folder that my home dir [21:01] veck: in accessibility there should be something like speechoutput...

See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases [22:04] !br | flavio [22:04] flavio: Por favor, use #ubuntu-br para ajuda em português. Obrigado. [22:05] anybody know why there hasn't been an update for Ktorrent in Jaunty? It's still at 3.2.1 whereas the latest bugfix release is 3.2.2 (which looks to be avialable in karmic) [22:06] i have 3.2.1 [22:07] yes. i saw. the 6.10 is EOL. that is the only version that i could intall [22:07] thanks! [22:08] it's a bot, flavio :) [22:09] Sorry, but what is that "bot"? [22:10] flavio: it's not a human, it's a script, programmed to respond on certain triggers [22:11] hello! i possibly made a little bit of a hasty dicision there a second ago. I just installed the KDE 4.3 RC but i'm having problems [22:11] Its not program problems its actually packaging problems [22:11] dpkg is exiting with an error code 1 [22:12] so i'm only getting part of the update [22:12] also : trying to overwrite `/usr/lib/libkephal.so', which is also in package kdebase-workspace-bin [22:12] any suggestions ? [22:12] real-ate: have you tried to do sudo aptitude reinstall kde-workspace-bin? [22:13] Ok! thnaks!! [22:13] flavio: you're welcome [22:13] elitrou: kdebase-workspace-bin is already the newest version. [22:14] by the way....do you know something about Error5 - Input/Output devices during kubuntu installation? [22:14] shadeslayer: yes, I have 3.2.1 as well.. why isn't there an update to 3.2.2? It was release on 1st June. [22:14] do you mean uninstall? there is no "reinstall" command [22:14] Captain_Haddock: i also have a svn version i use for kde-nightly,but no idea on the upgrade [22:15] Cheers [22:15] Captain_Haddock: maybe theyre busy with the RC? [22:15] real_ate: do you try apt-get or aptitude? [22:15] oh [22:15] * real_ate read that wrong [22:15] shadeslayer: well, it's already available for karmic. [22:16] Captain_Haddock: that is irrelevant [22:16] (and it's a bugfix release.. so it's probably more straightforward) [22:16] shadeslayer: why, exactly? [22:16] Captain_Haddock: because something that works in karmic might not work in jaunty [22:17] elitrou: i don't think this is the problem... i can't do any of this because it is asking me to uninstall all the other kde stuff i just installed [22:17] Sure, but the compile script hasn't changed from 3.2.1 to 3.2.2.. There must be some other "administrative" reason behind it [22:17] real-ate: does it mentions any dependency problems? [22:17] Captain_Haddock: dunno [22:19] elitrou: http://pastebin.com/d53f05fca [22:20] wtf!!! its working now!!!! [22:20] umm, I need some help. I tryed to upgread from 8.4 to 9.4, the upgread process faild, I tryed dpkg a few times, it managed to install most packages. I tryed to reboot, and bam, It won't load the root filesystem [22:20] real_ate: it's a dark magic:) [22:20] avihay: you cannot upgrade to 9.04 from a 8.04 LTS install [22:21] * real_ate quite used to dark magic [22:21] ;) [22:21] * real_ate is a developer [22:21] avihay: you need to reinstall all over again,thats why LTS releases are different from ' Normal ' releases [22:21] KDE 4.3 come to papa!!! [22:22] it tryes to load the root filesystem by UUID, and I'm starting to belive that it's because /dev/disk/by-uuid isn't working [22:22] shadeslayer: maybe I mixed a few versions up, it was probebly 8.04 to8.10 [22:23] avihay: you can only go from 8.04 to 10.04 [22:24] shadeslayer: you can go from 8.04 to 8.10 [22:24] shadeslayer: you can upgrade to non-lts releases. [22:24] ikonia: i thought 8.04 was LTS [22:24] well, if I in initramfs, if I ls /dev/disk/by-uuid, I don't see my root hdd's uuid, only the others [22:24] it is [22:24] ikonia: really? i thought LTS meant you can only upgrade to the next LTS [22:25] no, [22:25] no [22:25] then i guess its 8.04 to 8.10 then to 9.04 [22:26] shadeslayer- Kubuntu 8.04 wasn't an LTS anyway [22:26] Dragnslcr: what! [22:27] guys, you be missing the issue! [22:33] does anyone knows something about Error5 - Input/Output devices during kubuntu installation? [22:33] flavio: could be bad media? CD.. try reburning?
