[01:48] huh? I mean if I'm alone with this trouble. [01:48] what *is* the trouble, exactly? [01:50] Well whenever I try to burn a dvd iso it just burns like 1% - 3% and then it hangs. I've been testing k3b, brassario or whatever the name is. And also imgburn with wine. It hangs everytime. I've had to throw 9 dvd's so far :/ [01:50] MrJaxon, trouble with which app; this is a dvd.iso to dvd? [01:51] MrJaxon, this is in gnome or kde [01:51] Yup dvd.iso to dvd. It's in kde 4.2 [01:52] MrJaxon, is this a linux.iso? [01:52] Yup it's a linux dist [01:53] MrJaxon, it hangs for how long before you cancel it [01:54] 8187 [01:54] oops, ignore that, too [01:54] well it's been different since I got tired of waiting. But I'd say that I've been letting it try to burn for a good 30 minutes from time to time before cancelling. [01:54] I meant to say, yes, thanks for yesterday's advice, the updated kernel DID make my RTL8187 fly like the wind [01:55] MrJaxon, I meant, what were the specific error messages, log output and such [01:55] consider unetbootin, it rocks [01:55] and saves money on disks [01:56] * cor smells googlin..

I only got one puter than can do it [01:58] unetbootin? ok so I just put the iso on an usb device and boot it from there? [01:58] pretty much [01:58] MrJaxon, not exactly that, but close [01:58] Well I know that in BIOS I have that option so maybe that would work.

However I have 1 dvd left and I thought that maybe I'll save it for tomorrow and visit a friend with windows so she can burn the iso for me.

[07:59] CptnAwesome: it will not remove KDE if it's that what you mean, kubuntu-desktop is only a meta package [07:59] ditto for ubuntu-desktop [08:00] so any packages that are installed with kubuntu-desktop will be removed with it as well, leaving only what i have on the machine now? what happens if i have installed packages included with kubuntu-desktop already? [08:01] sorry for the long winded questions =) [08:04] * CptnAwesome just does it and suffers the consequences. [08:07] CptnAwesome: no, read what I said :) [08:07] if you remove kubuntu-desktop it will only remove that package, not KDE [08:07] kubuntu-desktop is a meta-package, it only installs KDE, it doesn't remove it [08:08] where are the .vcf files stored [08:09] ok, thanks [08:10] * Mamarok doesn't know what .vcf files are [08:13] I updated to the latest rc and my contacts arent showing up. all of the resources can't be found but they werent moved. akonadi server says there is an error 11 "Unable to lock ./ibdata1" [08:13] oh, right, I remember now [08:14] Moi [08:14] I'm wondering if there is a problem with the latest rc packaes or if something just screwed up on my end [08:14] harolddong: which KDE version do you have?

If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [09:17] i have a .patch file how do i make it work [09:18] i tryed to make [09:18] beyondcr: you didn't specify what patch on what application [09:18] but nothing happen [09:18] and which KDE version [09:18] its a patch for cowpatty 4.6 [09:19] FYI, a patch has to be applied in the source normally, then you have to recompile the application [09:19] * Mamarok doesn't know what application this is [09:19] kde 4.2.2 [09:20] beyondcr: download the source file, apply the patch with the command 'patch -p0 < patch.file' in the correct folder of the source [09:21] then recompile with the appropriate means suggested in the README file of the source [09:21] ty [09:21] beyondcr: you are welcome :) [09:22] does anyone know how to use events to trigger scripts? i want to run a script when a file is modified but I dont want to run an infinite loop. [09:26] Hi there, anybody is using KDE 4.3 RC3 on Kubuntu 9.04? [09:26] I upgraded to the PPA packages and plasma always SEGV. [09:26] had to revert back to 4.2.2 [09:27] wake up... [09:28] no housekeeping need sleepy [09:29] ok...zzzZZZ [09:29] usually better responces in a few hours when more people are awake [09:32] hi all [09:33] Kuuuu: I run RC3, and it works very well here, from what version did you upgrade? [09:34] hi trapa [09:34] somebody tellme some chat to talk? [09:34] do you know how to trigger a script with an event [09:34] like an updated file triggers a notification [09:34] toshiro: discussion is in #kubuntu-offtopic [09:35] toshiro: but read the topic of the channel anyway :) [09:35] Mamarok, fresh installed Kubuntu 9.04. then I add the ppa depot, and upgrade, and plasma SEGV. [09:35] Kuuuu: well, are you sure you installed everything? [09:36] I added the ppa source in KPackageKit, refresh, and installed all the updates. [09:36] i am not sure what are installed [09:36] because there has be some renaming betwee kde 4.2 and 4.3, so you need to check that everything is installed, especially kdebase-* packages, all plsma packages for 4.2.98, etc. [09:36] plasma* [09:37] how to do full upgrade? [09:37] when plasma SEGV, I don't have my network (WiFi), and cannot use apt-get any more. [09:38] Kuuuu: network is independend of the desktop normally, and you do the upgrade in KDE anyway, so you can still verify before you restart KDE [09:39] so if your network works, it will not stop working during the update process [09:39] but the network manager widget didn't write my wifi settings back to conf file. [09:39] Kuuuu: you should upgrade with a package manager, so you are sure to see the 4.2.98 files you need [09:40] you mean do upgrade in apt-get? [09:40] Kuuuu: if you do not restart KDE before your upgrade is finished, it still runs, so you just don't quit the package manager and install manually what is missing there [09:40] how to ensure full upgrade in KPackageKit? [09:40] Kuuuu: no, in a package manager, either adept or kpackagekit or synaptic [09:41] Kuuuu: well, there is a search field, where you can search for files [09:41] yep, then [09:41] ? [09:41] Kuuuu: but if you are not experienced then you should wait for KDE 4.3 final anyway [09:41] just not a KDE user. very experienced otherwise :) [09:44] now that ive grabbed kubuntu-desktop from apt-get, will i get the option to go into kde or kubuntu when i boot up next? [09:44] Kuuuu: that has nothing to do with KDE, using a package manager is the same in all desktops... [09:44] CptnAwesome: yes, of course, although you will only have a basic installation, you miht have to install additional packages [09:45] kubuntu-desktop gives you only what is on the default CD [09:45] might* [09:45] np, thats all i needed to know, see you from Kubuntu land soon [09:46] Mamarok, UI is different... [09:47] I didn't see a button to do full upgrade in KPackageKit [09:47] Kuuuu: there is no such button, and there is no such button in Gnome neither, I use synaptic :) [09:48] hi [09:48] so apt-get dist-upgrade is the only way... [09:48] I have a soundproblem. Only one application can play sound at once. What can I do against that? [09:49] and another question, where to change the mouse speed? [09:50] i cannot find the old control center. [09:51] Kuuuu: what version did you upgrade from? [09:51] the system settings haven't changed ind KDE 4 since ages [09:52] this is my first time on KDE 4 :) [09:52] ok, see it. [09:52] wired it is not in System/ menu [09:52] Kuuuu: so what control center are you talking about, the one in KDE3? [09:53] it's in the first menu page ... [09:53] just open your eyes [09:53] and it is in the settings menu, system wouldn't make sense, and it was so in KDE3 too [09:54] hey Mamrok are you still there? [09:54] beyondcr: just ask [09:55] ha, i removed it from favorite menu, now i cannot see it anywhere in the K menu. [09:55] nice [09:55] Kuuuu: well, then add it back: settings menu, system settings, right click -> add to favorites [09:55] i went the source placed the file in to it typed patch -p0 and the file name and there is nothing happing any idea? [09:56] just got a blank cursur [09:56] and don't remove stuff when you only just start, else you can't find your way [09:56] did you type the exact line I gave you, with the < sign? [09:56] never mind, i found it in "recently used" [09:56] in the correct folder? [09:56] beyondcr: ^^ [09:57] where can I change the soundserver in kde4? [09:57] it should belong to somewhere other than "Favorite" [09:57] how do I check that all ppa packages are installed? Is there a full list? Or has to search 'ppa'? [09:58] Kuuuu: no, search for kde, then check the version number [09:58] no let me put the < [09:58] beyondcr: ... [09:58] sorry contact kept falling out [09:59] so the step on kubuntu.com: "Then refresh and do a full upgrade." is really not an easy step.

[11:27] that's right [11:28] i did all the same [11:28] it just works [11:28] it shows connecting for a while and now it shows OFFLINE [11:28] I've got a machine which had Kubuntu installed using bad RAM. What's the apt-get equivalent to `rm -rf /usr/portage/distfiles/*; emerge --emptytree world`? (Something to re-install the entire system to make sure the previous install didn't corrupt things) [11:29] I don't have a Jaunty CD handy and I don't have time to install Feisty and then update. [11:31] hardymoon please help me [11:33] yahoo constantly makes changes.Even the old versions of pidgin do not work with yahoo. the Latest version works well with yahoo but do not know upto when. [11:35] ssokolow, sudo apt-get clean will clear the apt archives, not familiar enough with gentoo to know the emerge --emptytree world command equivalent [11:35] ssokolow, the purge command is useful as well, you can read the manual for apt-get to understand more clearly [11:39] bazhang: `emerge --emptytree world` re-merges every currently-installed package. [11:40] (world is the list of all packages requested directly rather than pulled in by dependencies and --emptytree makes the dependency system pretend nothing is currently installed) [11:41] do I use the kubuntu bug tracker to submit a bug with a plasma widget? The System Monitor widget? when you lock the panels, log out and log in, it loses the size, and doesn't expand the panels, so everything is all smashed together [11:41] prasad: are you using kopete to connect to yahoo messenger? [11:43] ssokolow, not sure of an Ubuntu equivalent for that; you could do a netinstall, a minimal install (9mb iso), and some others ; /msg ubottu install for the options [11:45] can i use cam with kopete i would like chat with some oone have msn in windows xp [11:47] bazhang: If I had time to stop what I was doing for that long, I'd just burn a Jaunty CD.

[13:48] pls [13:49] she can't get it working [13:53] millun: can you be more specific? [13:54] millun: I have an intel GM 965 too [13:55] and it's now mostly useable [13:56] what did you do for that ? she says she can't get 3D effects working [13:56] .... [13:57] ? [13:57] i might tell her to come her later when she gets online [13:57] how much trouble is it? she's a novice [13:58] she can't get it working, or does it work and then immidietly stop? [13:58] is there a tool i can call from cmdline, which will load a given string into kde's clipboard ? [13:59] i believe it works (so she probably uses some crappy os driver?). i don't know if it immediately stops.... [13:59] well, the problem is that the drivers are bad, there is a simple solution for reverting to an older version of the drivers, but that didn't work for me [13:59] oh [14:00] there is a more complex solution that lets you install newer experimental drivers [14:00] what do you suggest then? she only told me 3D wasn't working [14:00] ok. is it easy to google? [14:00] that fixed some of the issues I had, and made compositing on my system almost fast enough to enjoy [14:01] i see [14:01] if 3d is totaly not working then it might be another problem [14:01] anyone know where I can backup Konversation connetion settings? [14:01] can she run glxgears? [14:02] i'll ask when she gets online [14:02] any one knows what is the double layer dvd for?

[19:29] kedge: I think there's a separate channel for karmic [19:29] try #kubuntu+1 or something like that [19:29] !karmic [19:29] Karmic Koala is the codename for Ubuntu 9.10, due October 2009 - Karmic WILL break - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1 [19:29] kedge: it's #ubuntu+1 [19:29] thanks [19:30] * Captain_Haddock met a new Linux user today who was using Karmic :| [19:31] This is his first ever Linux install and somebody told him that Karmic was the "cutting-edge" [19:31] :S [19:31] o_O people are mean =P [19:32] also... I would like to upgrade to the karmic alpha (I know it's alpha ;-)) - but only found "update-manager -d" as command for upgrading - is there a kubuntu-specific one? [19:34] kottlett: you really want to do that? [19:34] did you change the sources? [19:35] i upgraded to kubuntu 9.04 didnnn't like it and have gone back to kubuntu 8.10 now my cd/dvd player will not allow me to watch dvds or burn dvds only lets me listen to and burn cds [19:35] help please [19:35] Mamarok: yep.. it's not my office box... and I'm on the kde 4.3 RC anyways :) [19:35] kottlett: there is still a long way between an alpha3 and an RC3, don't compare those [19:36] I think I am pretty experienced, but I would certainly not upgrade to Karmic right now [19:36] kde 4.3 RC3 is stable, and it's stable since quite some time, Karmic Alpha will break for sure [19:37] it's only Alpha 3 out of 8 [19:37] !dvd | nico977 [19:37] nico977: For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also https://help.ubuntu.com/9.04/musicvideophotos/C/video.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats [19:38] kottlett: I think you want dist-upgrade ... you can also get help for karmic in #ubuntu+1 [19:38] Mamarok: well three months till release isn't that much, and I don't really use it for work, so it isn't that important [19:38] kottlett: well, your choice then [19:39] sudo apt-get dist-upgrade if your sources.list is changed already [19:39] Mamarok: thanks for warning me, anyways *g* [19:39] kottlett: well, I start with that as a lot of people don't know what they are doing, so warning is always good :) [19:40] Mamarok: indeed :) [19:41] Mamarok: got it... update-notifier-kde ... and then the magic -d option [19:46] none of those are working any other ideeaas? [19:47] kedge: I am [19:47] kottlett: make sure your sources.list is correct, then sudo apt-get update [19:47] darthanubis: do you see ... "user is now Online" notifications? [19:47] then sudo apt-get dist-upgrade [19:48] kedge: i have not noticed, or can't remember [19:48] Mamarok: got it... update-notifier-kde ... and then the magic -d option, checks for enough disk space etc. [19:48] oups [19:48] kottlett: if you are not familiar with that, you really should not do it... [19:48] wanted to say: update-notifier-kde is the better choice :) [19:48] darthanubis: ok === moutinho is now known as marcooliva [19:49] sorry === derrick__ is now known as D-Master [19:52] Mamarok: the last linux I couldn't fix was a gentoo compiled with experiMENTAL gcc and using XFS ... and these times are over ;-) [19:56] hi everybody? [19:56] how are you? [19:56] could u help me with something ? [19:57] !ask | noquinho [19:57] noquinho: 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. :-) [19:57] ok [19:58] i installed ubuntu in my notebook. I took off my windows vista, but i made a copy from my documents. [19:58] But i put cd and he says not possible to read my cd [19:58] i need my documents [19:59] noquinho: all in one line :p [20:00] noquinho: what did you install exactly, which version? [20:01] first i instaled ubuntu 8.10 . After i made update for 9.04 [20:01] i have 3 days using linux only [20:01] noquinho: so you are using Gnome or KDE? [20:01] is your desktop blue or brown? [20:02] gnome [20:03] noquinho: then you should ask in #ubuntu, we do KDE support here [20:03] ok thanks [20:03] you are welcome :) [20:14] Mamarok: mounting a cd is the same in all DEs [20:16] ActionParsnip: and? It's probably much the same in Fedora too. [20:17] Should we support Fedora here? :| [20:17] Captain_Haddock: its all ubuntu so its logical to support it [20:17] Captain_Haddock: its still a canonical product [20:18] ActionParsnip: this isn't #canonical [20:18] i just think turning a user to another channel on the basis of they use a different DE is pretty poor [20:18] it's logical to redirect the user to the proper channel so that he'll also direct all further questions to the right support people [20:19] ActionParsnip: I know nothing about Gnome, so I prefer not to risk my luck there :) [20:19] ActionParsnip: not when the other channel exists purely because of the difference in DEs. [20:20] Captain_Haddock: true for the apps that make them different [20:20] but for something common it doesnt really matter === brad_ is now known as Brhad56 [20:21] they could have lied and said "yes im running kde" and the same mount command would apply [20:21] <[GuS]> ActionParsnip: is why exist channel for every distro... [20:21] ActionParsnip: well, why didn't you step in? [20:21] <[GuS]> so, is a Ubuntu question, then #Ubuntu channel [20:21] ActionParsnip: this discussion is useless [20:21] Mamarok: i'm just making my point first [20:21] <[GuS]> or why exist both channels anyway? === don is now known as Guest90793 [20:22] ActionParsnip: ... [20:22] noquinho: ok lets get this CD mounted [20:22] [GuS]: to keep ActionParsnip entertained [20:22] <[GuS]> lol [20:22] noquinho: have you tried: sudo mount /dev/sr0 /media/cdrom0 [20:22] Hi, I just started using kubuntu [20:22] How can I join a jabber conference in kopete? [20:23] [GuS]: i just think users should be supported wherever they can. maybe i'm weird [20:23] Nocturn: read and follow the instructions clearly in kopete to add an account. Did you even try that yet? [20:23] <[GuS]> ActionParsnip: then for you should exist one #Ubuntu channel for 10000 users [20:23] My suspend to RAM stopped working :P~ [20:23] <[GuS]> wrong [20:23] ActionParsnip: if it's in the scope of the channel, else it doesn't belong here [20:23] could you folks take this to -offtopic, please? [20:24] yeah please [20:24] * darthanubis sheesh [20:24] <[GuS]> :P [20:24] darthanubis: what instructions? I added an account and that's fine but I cannot find conference chat [20:25] Nocturn: http://userbase.kde.org/Kopete_Jabber_Muc [20:25] practice your google-fu [20:28] darthanubis: it says "This is the "join groupchat" action in the jabber menu", but I cannot find the jabber menu [20:28] you have to excuse me, I'm a bit lost after using pidgin for years [20:29] Nocturn: no worries, you can STILL use pidgin [20:29] Nocturn: use what you know, until you learn the other apps [20:29] nothing wrong with that [20:29] darthanubis: I know, but the whole point of trying kde4 is to user KDE4 apps... [20:29] I can dig it. It is what I'm doing now [20:30] I'm loving kde4, but not kopete so much [20:30] KDE4 is pretty cool indeed. But I never like kopete in the past so I'm giving it a fresh chance [20:30] Quassel is pretty cool though [20:32] I removed quassel from jump and prefer konversation as it looks and feels more like xchat [20:33] Nocturn: I'm still sticking to pidgin myself [20:33] I try kopete after every upgrade and then ditch it [20:33] LOL [20:34] my gmail google talk account wonnn't even connect [20:35] http://www.google.com/support/talk/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=57557 [20:35] darthanubis: strange, mine worked instantly [20:35] kopete Version 0.70.90 [20:35] on kubuntu 9.10 alpha3 [20:36] how is kde 4.x these days ? last time i used it i was at a conference and it just crashed all over the shop :( [20:37] it was embarassing while everyone else was sat with their macbooks === liberfiasco is now known as libervisco [20:37] Captain_Haddock: what IM program do you use insted of keopete? [20:38] he already said pidgin :p [20:38] i use pidgin too, its a bit basic but it works [20:39] carpii: KDE4x is so good now, I stopped using gnome [20:39] hm [20:39] who knew, I did not need compiz for a beautiful functional desktop [20:39] stable, and feature rich would you say ? [20:40] TOTALLY [20:40] I'm using 4.3RC3 [20:40] i think i used 4.1 or something. it had many issues [20:40] ok, maybe its time to give it another go, thanks [20:40] 4.2 is even rock solid [20:40] one thing people were ridiculing me for [20:40] you wn't be sorry [20:40] was the ability to rotate windows [20:40] and i never understood what the purpose of this was [20:40] any idea? [20:40] the purpose? [20:40] lol [20:41] if you need to ask it aint for you [20:41] well its kinda cool, but at the same time really pointless :p [20:41] if you don't use multiple desktops then it aint for you [20:41] nothing pointless about it [20:41] i do [20:41] enlighten me, maybe im being dumb :) [20:41] just because it is beyond your understanding, means nothing [20:41] heh [20:42] I can get to another desktop quickly [20:42] at this moment in time, do you have any ortated windows on your desktop ? [20:42] and with flare if need be [20:42] hey everyone [20:42] hi [20:42] no wait, you know what i mean by rotate ? [20:42] ortated? [20:42] rotated [20:42] cube effect? [20:42] nop [20:42] I'm having some issues with the Arora browser [20:42] yes [20:42] can anyone help me out/ [20:42] were talking different things [20:42] carpii: expound? [20:42] actually i think it wasnt all windows, but gadget windows [20:43] you could rab a handle and rotate them by 90 degress, or upside down etc [20:43] grab [20:43] widgets? [20:43] can anyone help me out? [20:43] yes [20:43] izizzle: try #ubuntu+1 [20:43] alright [20:43] sorry, its a while since i used it [20:43] I use widgets, but don't "rotate" them [20:43] ok good to know [20:43] but I'm on Kubuntu [20:43] you garee thats pointless then, really ? [20:43] agree [20:44] izizzle, is the issue youre having specific to KDE ? [20:44] izizzle: you're using karmic, though. Right? That channel handles karmic "support" for both KDE and Gnome. [20:44] it is KDE specific, and I'm on Jaunty [20:44] ah. I thought Arora was a Karmic thing. [20:45] KDE 4.2.4 [20:45] (sorry :) [20:45] can you help me out? [20:45] np [20:45] izizzle: ask the question already [20:45] I'm unfamiliar with it. I'm happy with FF and Opera :) [20:46] Well, I start up Arora and everything starts up just fine, but then it freezes and I have to terminate it [20:47] hereis the terminal output: Gtk-Message: Failed to load module "canberra-gtk-module": /usr/lib/gtk-2.0/modules/libcanberra-gtk-module.so: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64 [20:47] *** NSPlugin Wrapper *** ERROR: failed to initialize brower-side RPC events listener [20:47] *** NSPlugin Wrapper *** ERROR: failed to initialize brower-side RPC events listener [20:47] Gtk-Message: Failed to load module "canberra-gtk-module": /usr/lib/gtk-2.0/modules/libcanberra-gtk-module.so: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64 [20:47] server bind: Address already in use [20:47] izizzle: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [20:47] any ideas? [20:48] izizzle: install the canberra w/e module? [20:49] ? [20:49] the module is necessary i believe [20:49] izizzle: is it installed? [20:49] yea [20:49] libcanberra-gtk-module is installed [20:50] any ideas [20:50] ? [20:50] besides that, no [20:50] alright [20:50] thanks though [20:51] I suggest you try #ubuntu+1 ...
