| Bryan_Sierra | Whenever I backspace when nothing is there to erase (no matter the application I'm using. It even does it in terminal) This really loud and annoying AAANNNNNTTTT plays. Is there anyway to turn this off? | 01:16 |
| JontheEchidna | Bryan_Sierra: this might help: http://ubuntu-tutorials.com/2007/07/26/turning-off-the-system-hardware-beep-linux-tutorial/ | 01:19 |
| Bryan_Sierra | JontheEchidna, it's not the pc speaker | 01:21 |
| Bryan_Sierra | it comes from the speakers | 01:21 |
| Bryan_Sierra | and when I had my headphones on | 01:21 |
| Bryan_Sierra | comes through them | 01:21 |
| Bryan_Sierra | really really annoying to be listening to some loud music and then all of a sudden BAAAHHHHHNNNNTTTT | 01:21 |

| Fanfare_ | show menu | 01:25 |
| racecar56 | thanks | 01:25 |
| Bryan_Sierra | any ideas? | 01:27 |
| Bryan_Sierra | if it helps, even when I mute the master channel it does it | 01:27 |
| Bryan_Sierra | oh | 01:28 |
| Bryan_Sierra | YAY | 01:28 |
| Bryan_Sierra | figured it out | 01:28 |

| FloodBotK1 | Bryan_Sierra: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 01:28 |
| Bryan_Sierra | Alright, JontheEchidna here is how I fixed it in case anyone comes in and has this same issue. Kmixer has a "PC Beep" channel. If you just mute that, it goes away. | 01:29 |
| JontheEchidna | huh, interesting | 01:30 |
| Dragnslcr | Any advice on mounting a USB storage device (actually a media player) that doesn't seem to be getting mounted automagically? | 01:33 |

| _gtt_ | shanepardue: not the kopete program itself, but when a friend signs on/off, it temporarily adds a blue circle with a white "i", which forces my area to be resized, along with the rest of my taskbar | 03:13 |

| tong_ | Hello | 03:34 |
| tong_ | สวัสดีครับ | 03:34 |
| asdfghjk | am relatively unexperienced and having trouble installing nvidia controler in 9.04, please pm me if you think you might be able to help | 03:36 |
| asdfghjk | when i install nvidia drivers and and restart the startup freezes at "checking battery status | 03:42 |
| asdfghjk | this happens with both the driver that the device maneger finds and the newer driver dated june 28 dwnloaded directly from nvidia | 03:44 |
| asdfghjk | is there anyone here? Im seeing nothing but server messages. | 03:50 |
| BluesKaj | asdfghjk, uninstall the the driver you downloaded from nvidia before you install the default kubuntu driver (prolly the nvidia-glx-180) , depending on your card. | 03:56 |
| BluesKaj | asdfghjk, are you at a tty prompt ? | 03:57 |
| asdfghjk | im in windows on my laptop, i cant even get kubuntu to boot now, have reintalled about 5 times today | 03:58 |
| BluesKaj | asdfghjk, live cd ? | 03:58 |
| asdfghjk | do you mean to say uninstall the default before installing the downloaded? | 03:59 |
| asdfghjk | yes | 03:59 |
| ToHellWithGA | which package adds "Keyboard & Mouse" to systemsettings? | 03:59 |
| ToHellWithGA | without a full KDE desktop i only have "Multimedia" in that category | 03:59 |
| BluesKaj | asdfghjk, no uninstall the dl'd driver if it's installed , if you can dod that from the tty prompt or live cd | 04:00 |
| BluesKaj | dod=do | 04:00 |
| asdfghjk | pm BlueKag pls to avoid the distractions of other conversations | 04:01 |
| HollowPoint | Hey guys, anyone got any ideas on getting Avahi working properly in 9.04? | 04:01 |
| ToHellWithGA | HollowPoint: what's not working about it? | 04:01 |
| BluesKaj | asdfghjk, most likely the live cd since I don't think you have a completed install | 04:01 |
| asdfghjk | not a complete install? | 04:02 |
| BluesKaj | were you using kubuntu at all previous to this problem ? | 04:02 |
| asdfghjk | it was upgraded from 810 | 04:02 |
| BluesKaj | ok | 04:02 |
| HollowPoint | ToHellWithGA: Well I work in a mostly mac environment, but I hate Macs, I need to use iChat/Bonjour in order to communicate with the other members of staff, I get no buddies showing up in Pidgin, Kopete, Empathy or for that matter any other chat client I try to use with Bonjour, the avahi-browse .... etc shows no buddies and avahi-discover shows nothing either | 04:03 |
| asdfghjk | how would i tell if it is complete? | 04:03 |
| BluesKaj | so you're familiar with the command line then | 04:03 |
| HollowPoint | BluesKaj: Was that question/statement aimed at me? | 04:04 |
| asdfghjk | little bit enough to install th driver. but not much more | 04:04 |
| BluesKaj | sorry HollowPoint , no | 04:04 |
| HollowPoint | np | 04:04 |
| BluesKaj | HollowPoint, try konversation if you want irc , amsn if you wany IM | 04:05 |
| HollowPoint | I'm in IRC, I use aMSN for MSN, but I NEED to be able to use the Bonjour/LinkLocal protocol to communicate with other staff members on campus | 04:05 |
| ToHellWithGA | that's a bummer, man | 04:05 |
| asdfghjk | how do i go about removing the driver that is causing the prob without reinstalling? | 04:06 |
| HollowPoint | I should explain here I'm a 3rd line IT engineer specialising in Unix/AIX based systems and Cisco Networking, unfortunately for me I've never previously needed to have much to do with IM services, now I desperately want to shed the mac book I have sat next to me, now ONLY used for iChat and I can't get Avahi to work, from googling it seems there are issues with it and IPv6 as well in Jaunty | 04:07 |
| BluesKaj | asdfghjk, do you recall the driver number , like 180 or some such ? | 04:07 |
| HollowPoint | asdfghjk: are you having a problem with an NVIDIA driver? | 04:08 |
| asdfghjk | one was 180 something, the latest was 185.18.29 | 04:08 |
| ToHellWithGA | what's wrong with macs? | 04:08 |
| asdfghjk | both had the same problem | 04:08 |
| HollowPoint | I just don't like them, I get angry when I can't modify things like I can in Linux/Other Unix based systems | 04:08 |
| BluesKaj | yeah , that's the latest version of the 180 driver for most nvidia cards | 04:09 |
| HollowPoint | asdfghjk: there are instructions available through a quick google search on "how to completely remove nvidia driver linux" | 04:09 |
| asdfghjk | i have 2 260 in sli | 04:09 |
| BluesKaj | sorry HollowPoint , Iknow very little about what you are trying to do | 04:09 |
| HollowPoint | np BluesKaj me either | 04:10 |
| ToHellWithGA | i run all kinds of stuff on my macbook | 04:10 |
| asdfghjk | thanks hollowpoint | 04:10 |
| HollowPoint | First time I've been in an entirely mac environment | 04:10 |
| ToHellWithGA | what do you miss so much from linux? | 04:10 |
| HollowPoint | I run all kinds on the mac book I have here, but I prefer my Linux laptop | 04:10 |
| ToHellWithGA | running out of battery? | 04:10 |
| asdfghjk | i am more interested in making them work than just eliminating them though | 04:10 |
| HollowPoint | I miss things like Yakuake being available for terminal, I miss being able to actually use Bash with proper Bash commands, I HATE the fact that the Mach kernel is buggy, pathetically weak and doesn't error report properly, it's almost like working with MS | 04:11 |
| ToHellWithGA | i really like running os x and trying to port linux things to it rather than dealing with its default set of stuff | 04:11 |
| asdfghjk | i cant even watch movies wth the default driver | 04:11 |
| ToHellWithGA | install macports and bash | 04:11 |
| ToHellWithGA | there's your bash | 04:11 |
| BluesKaj | asdfghjk, can you get to a TTY prompt by doing ctrl+alt+F2 on your linux machine ? | 04:11 |
| HollowPoint | yeah except you still can't use the bash commands properly in MacOSX because OSX won't respond to the commands | 04:11 |
| asdfghjk | Ill try now | 04:11 |
| ToHellWithGA | asdfghjk: to get back ctrl+alt+f7 | 04:11 |
| asdfghjk | brb | 04:12 |
| ToHellWithGA | in case you want to come back to GUI land | 04:12 |
| BluesKaj | don't think has a gui to get back to | 04:12 |
| ToHellWithGA | assuming asdfghjk is using a GUI IRC client (: | 04:12 |
| HollowPoint | what is asdfghjk actually trying to do? | 04:12 |
| asdfghjk | cant even boot | 04:12 |
| ToHellWithGA | oh lawdy | 04:12 |
| BluesKaj | bummer | 04:12 |
| ToHellWithGA | nevermind then | 04:12 |
| asdfghjk | it freezes at check battery status | 04:12 |
| HollowPoint | have you tried using the alternate installer CD? | 04:12 |
| asdfghjk | in the startup | 04:13 |
| BluesKaj | damm laptops | 04:13 |
| ToHellWithGA | watch your language young man, this is a family place | 04:13 |
| BluesKaj | try anyway , it might be far enuff into the boot sequence | 04:13 |
| asdfghjk | it installs fine till i try to install a driver for nvidia | 04:13 |
| ToHellWithGA | there's that recovery console option in grub | 04:13 |
| asdfghjk | ok going now | 04:13 |
| asdfghjk | brb | 04:13 |
| HollowPoint | my first port of call would be alternate installer CD, next would be install 8.10, then upgrade to 9.04-Hybrid and it should keep things working through the upgrade process. Then install the NVIDIA drivers | 04:14 |
| BluesKaj | ToHellWithGA, ...interesting youshould say that , with your nick :) | 04:14 |
| ToHellWithGA | yes but my nick is a tradition and your frustration with laptops is just an expletive | 04:14 |
| HollowPoint | it wasn't an expletive because he didn't spell it right ;) | 04:15 |
| ToHellWithGA | it was the policy in other ubuntu channels to keep things as tame as possible | 04:15 |
| HollowPoint | usually is here because we get kids, where are you from though ToHellWithGA if you consider that word expletive? | 04:16 |
| ToHellWithGA | i haven't been around in several days though, i guess that may have changed | 04:16 |
| ToHellWithGA | when | 04:16 |
| ToHellWithGA | where isn't really a big deal | 04:16 |
| HollowPoint | you're trying to tell me you're an older generation? | 04:17 |
| BluesKaj | to hell with expletives :) | 04:17 |
| ToHellWithGA | i'm from a time when people considered cursing just enough of a big deal that they saved it for when it actually meant something | 04:17 |
| ToHellWithGA | not that much older | 04:17 |
| BluesKaj | well, I'm 66 and cranky as hell so I have the right :) | 04:17 |
| asdfghjk | back | 04:18 |
| ToHellWithGA | i don't think IRC channels help anyone get less cranky | 04:18 |
| asdfghjk | in tty | 04:18 |
| HollowPoint | true | 04:18 |
| asdfghjk | do i need to su? | 04:18 |
| BluesKaj | asdfghjk, now what driver did you install exactly , do you recall ? | 04:19 |
| asdfghjk | 186.18.29 | 04:19 |
| asdfghjk | 185 | 04:19 |
| BluesKaj | that's the proprietary driver you downloaded ? | 04:19 |
| asdfghjk | yes | 04:19 |
| ToHellWithGA | i wonder if he coudl get into x using VESA | 04:19 |
| ToHellWithGA | s/dl/ld/ | 04:20 |
| HollowPoint | most likely | 04:20 |
| ToHellWithGA | it would make things go more smoothly with the exception of graphical eye-candy | 04:20 |
| HollowPoint | the vesa driver is built into the Jaunty Kernel I believe, so would be worth a try | 04:20 |
| ToHellWithGA | from a functional DE he could then installenvyng | 04:21 |
| asdfghjk | i still need to install a driver that will at least let me watch movies | 04:21 |
| ToHellWithGA | s/lle/ll e | 04:21 |
| ToHellWithGA | you can do that from a lazy man's tool | 04:21 |
| ToHellWithGA | unless you really love fighting with things | 04:21 |
| ToHellWithGA | there's a package called envyng-qt which let's you pick your driver | 04:22 |
| ToHellWithGA | s/let's/lets | 04:22 |
| ToHellWithGA | it is bedtime for me | 04:22 |
| ToHellWithGA | too many typos in too little time | 04:22 |
| ToHellWithGA | y'all have a good night | 04:22 |
| asdfghjk | i allready tried 2 drivers | 04:22 |
| BluesKaj | ok asdfghjk , sudo aptitude remove nvidia-glx-185 , dunno if this is correct driver but try anyway | 04:23 |
| ToHellWithGA | 2 drivers that the tool picked for you by detecting your hardware? | 04:23 |
| asdfghjk | picking one is not a prob, its getting them to work | 04:23 |
| ToHellWithGA | or 2 that you arbitrarily picked | 04:23 |
| ToHellWithGA | if you want to do it the cowboy way instead of the easy way i'm sure you'll learn a lot more | 04:23 |

| ToHellWithGA | i had great luck with envyng-gtk getting 3d acceleration on my grandmother's pentium ii laptop with an old ATI card | 04:24 |
| asdfghjk | \the first was ver 180 something that the device manager in kubuntu found by itself and offered to install | 04:24 |
| ToHellWithGA | i'm not saying it's foolproof, but if it can figure out such old, dull junk it can probably handle the recent stuff as well | 04:25 |
| ToHellWithGA | peace out | 04:25 |
| asdfghjk | the second is the one the nvidia website says is correct for my cards | 04:25 |
| BluesKaj | asdfghjk, we need to know your nvidia card model to find the correct default driver to install from the repos , lspci | grep -i vga | 04:25 |
| el | I set up a framebuffer console via vesafb, but when I try to use it together with splash then it won't work: I get a splashscreen but when I switch to a console I get a blackscreen... | 04:25 |
| asdfghjk | evga geforce gtx 260 | 04:25 |
| asdfghjk | i have the right drivers | 04:26 |
| asdfghjk | it might make a difference that have the 64 bit ver of kubuntu | 04:27 |
| asdfghjk | the file that i have from nvidia i | 04:28 |
| asdfghjk | is " NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-185.18.29-pkg2.run | 04:29 |
| asdfghjk | " | 04:30 |
| BluesKaj | asdfghjk, sometimes the nvidia driver don't work with updated versions of the OS due to the kernel modules taking over from X | 04:30 |
| === ubuntu is now known as zman | ||
| === zman is now known as dude6 | ||
| dude6 | hello | 04:31 |
| asdfghjk | but i also tried the older one that kubuntu downloaded automatically and offered to install | 04:31 |
| asdfghjk | suposedly checked and approved | 04:31 |
| asdfghjk | afk 1 min | 04:32 |
| _gtt_ | anyone using arora? | 04:32 |

| asdfghjk | i guess no one else has had a similiar problem | 04:34 |
| === roger_ is now known as MrSmurfing | ||
| asdfghjk | is there anything else (other driver) i can try, the default driver cant display a dvd at anything much bigger than postage stamp size smoothly. | 04:36 |
| BluesKaj | asdfghjk, if you installed the DL'd driver first , it has to be removed before the default driver will work | 04:40 |
| BluesKaj | the first install becomes the default | 04:41 |
| asdfghjk | i had the default driver first | 04:41 |
| BluesKaj | did you remove it before installing the DL'd one ? | 04:42 |
| skreech | Hallo | 04:42 |
| asdfghjk | then kubunto offered to install a tested and approved nvidia driver | 04:42 |
| skreech | Anyone knows what nvidia did to mess up X ? | 04:42 |
| asdfghjk | it locked up on start up so i reinstalled kubuntu | 04:42 |
| BluesKaj | skreech, nothing ...X is practically depracated | 04:43 |
| skreech | asdfghjk: Full lockup? | 04:43 |
| asdfghjk | no | 04:43 |
| skreech | BluesKaj: Deingrated is more like it | 04:43 |
| asdfghjk | froze at checking battery status | 04:43 |
| BluesKaj | well, not working or doing much | 04:43 |
| asdfghjk | but crtl alt del worked | 04:44 |
| skreech | I'm Getting a can't find module type1 and can't find module freetyp | 04:44 |
| skreech | freetype | 04:44 |
| BluesKaj | <--- tired, can't think anymore ...sacktime for me | 04:44 |
| BluesKaj | sorry I couldn't help more , asdfghjk | 04:44 |
| asdfghjk | thanks for trying to help | 04:45 |
| asdfghjk | too late | 04:45 |
| asdfghjk | hes gone | 04:45 |
| skreech | :-) | 04:45 |
| skreech | asdfghjk: What's the problem? | 04:45 |
| asdfghjk | when i try to install a nvidia driver then reboot the reboot stops a checking battery status [OK] | 04:46 |
| asdfghjk | and doesnt continue | 04:47 |
| skreech | asdfghjk: can you get to a VT ? | 04:47 |
| asdfghjk | im new at this is VT command line? | 04:48 |
| skreech | asdfghjk: where are you now? | 04:48 |
| asdfghjk | im in mexico if that is what you mean | 04:48 |
| skreech | asdfghjk: I meant are you on Linux or a Live CD or Windows? | 04:48 |
| asdfghjk | or im on my laptop in windows if that is | 04:49 |
| skreech | asdfghjk: ok Hmm ok too hard to explain then | 04:49 |
| asdfghjk | laptop has hd too small to dual boot | 04:49 |
| skreech | Oh? | 04:50 |
| skreech | how big? | 04:50 |
| asdfghjk | about 300g | 04:50 |
| * skreech chuckles | 04:50 | |
| asdfghjk | the prob is on mt desktop | 04:50 |
| asdfghjk | 4 tB | 04:50 |
| skreech | asdfghjk: ah what's the problem over there? nvidia ? | 04:51 |
| asdfghjk | yes | 04:51 |
| asdfghjk | 2 gtx 260s in sli | 04:51 |
| asdfghjk | and with the default kubuntu driver i cant even watch a dvd except in a really small size | 04:52 |
| skreech | ha | 04:52 |
| skreech | I take it you went to the nvidia site and got the driver from there? | 04:53 |
| asdfghjk | first the one kubuntu offerd to install when it detected my cards | 04:53 |
| asdfghjk | and when that one didnt work i went to th nvidia site and downloaded the latest, 2 days old now | 04:54 |
| asdfghjk | it failed in the same way | 04:55 |
| skreech | asdfghjk: well I don't think it killed the whole process I think that it just stopped X updating. | 04:56 |
| asdfghjk | yea i can get into command line | 04:57 |
| skreech | I don't have any GUI right now since the nvidia driver did something stupid but I can be in here to get (and give) help :) | 04:57 |
| skreech | asdfghjk: install irssi and pastebinit then | 04:57 |
| asdfghjk | but i dont know how to get rid of it without reinstalling kub, no prob about 30 min | 04:58 |
| asdfghjk | but i have reinstalled a lot of times today trying different things | 04:58 |
| asdfghjk | and the fact remains that the default driver is not even close to good enough | 04:59 |
| skreech | asdfghjk: how to get rid of the nvidia driver? | 05:00 |
| asdfghjk | do you suppose that the sli could be the problem? | 05:00 |
| skreech | asdfghjk: Possibly I couldn't tell you. I'm not a Video Card Hidh end fan | 05:01 |
| skreech | High | 05:01 |
| asdfghjk | ive been doing that by reinstalling the operating sytem | 05:01 |
| skreech | asdfghjk: You can just type sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh | 05:01 |
| asdfghjk | ive found that for me the second card doent make any noticable difference, ive considered just putting it in another computer | 05:02 |
| skreech | asdfghjk: a quick search of SLI and Jaunty should give you some answers | 05:03 |
| asdfghjk | that will reinstall the default video driver? | 05:03 |
| asdfghjk | just type sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh | 05:04 |
| skreech | yes | 05:05 |
| asdfghjk | thanks that will be easier than reinstalling the os after each experiment | 05:05 |
| asdfghjk | as i said before im pretty new at this | 05:06 |
| skreech | asdfghjk: You will learn more as you go at some point there is no error you can't recover from given tools another computer and a network | 05:08 |
| asdfghjk | but if i cant get a better drivre working im just not going to be able to use kubuntu on my best machine | 05:08 |
| skreech | It may be way faster to reinstall sometimes :) | 05:08 |
| asdfghjk | i do have 4 computers and a network | 05:09 |
| skreech | asdfghjk: well get the rubbish driver working and copy /etc/X11/xorg.conf to your home directory | 05:09 |
| skreech | then you can start to play around | 05:09 |
| skreech | If things break badly you can just copy it back to /etc/X11/xorg.conf and run sudo /etc/init.d/kdm restart and you will be ok again | 05:10 |
| asdfghjk | what will that do? | 05:10 |
| asdfghjk | ok | 05:10 |
| skreech | what will what do? | 05:10 |
| asdfghjk | i didnt read all of the message before talking | 05:11 |
| skreech | asdfghjk: almost all of UNIX settings are in a file so if you want to reset something you just move a file out. You want it back youmove it back again | 05:12 |
| asdfghjk | ok thanks | 05:12 |
| asdfghjk | ill be back in a min my wife calls | 05:12 |
| skreech | so you can get things ih vanRijn | 05:15 |

| asdfghjk | asdfghj is not much of a nick but it is really easy to type, i was in a hurry ill probably use something different when i come back | 05:17 |
| skreech | Ha ha :) | 05:17 |
| skreech | I was wondering about that | 05:18 |
| asdfghjk | ill try to get back tomorrow if i see you i will say hi. | 05:18 |

| ShockValue | hola.. just started running kubuntu tonight and am liking it | 06:32 |
| ShockValue | was wondering, how do i add software sources so I can get more "bleeding edge" software? (firefox 3.5, amarok etc) | 06:33 |
| bazhang | ShockValue, firefox 3.5 is in the repos | 06:35 |
| bazhang | !ff35 | ShockValue | 06:35 |
| ubottu | ShockValue: Firefox 3.5 Final is available for Jaunty by installing the package firefox-3.5 and firefox-3.5-gnome-support | FF3.5 is referred to as Shiretoko on your UI, see http://is.gd/1reB3 for an explanation | Hardy & Intrepid: http://is.gd/1jkNY | 06:35 |
| ShockValue_ | hrm | 06:35 |
| bazhang | ShockValue_, as far as the rest, there are PPA and proposed | 06:36 |
| ShockValue | hrm.. this is a bit confusing for me.. when I search for firefox I only see 3.0.. but it comes up ok if I search for Shiretoko | 06:37 |
| bazhang | ShockValue, its named that until next release, Karmic | 06:37 |
| tiji | Anyone knows a reliable french network? | 06:39 |
| ShockValue | hrm.. when I installed 3.0 it only wanted a couple pre-req packages.. 3.5 wants to install half of gnome :) | 06:39 |

| bazhang | mostafa_, no need for 3rd party repos | 07:38 |
| bazhang | mostafa_, it is in Universe | 07:38 |

| bazhang | mostafa_, you want to dual boot kubuntu and kubuntu? | 07:55 |
| mostafa_ | excuse me sir your saying is clear but i can't catch your meaning of saying this | 07:56 |
| mostafa_ | you mean that i want both 8.10 and 9.04? | 07:57 |
| bazhang | mostafa_, triple boot = 3 OS; you want to triple boot kubuntu (two versions) and win7? | 07:57 |

| mostafa_ | i need them all | 07:58 |
| mostafa_ | that is i want to get into them | 07:58 |
| bazhang | mostafa_, and prior to installing grub2 were they working? able to boot all 3? | 07:58 |
| mostafa_ | the main boot loader is 8.10 because i installed it as the last os | 07:59 |
| mostafa_ | and 8.10 grub act like the admin | 08:00 |
| bazhang | mostafa_, and all was working correctly? able to boot all 3 OS? | 08:00 |

| kalp | i am trying to convert a folder full of wave files to mp3 files, what command should i giv to avoid giving command for each file? | 08:00 |
| mostafa_ | it means that i can go through all of them | 08:00 |
| bazhang | mostafa_, so seems you dont need to make any changes as you asked above | 08:00 |
| bazhang | mostafa_, your old grub menu.lst was okay, so no need to change it | 08:01 |

| mostafa_ | bazhang_, if i can change the jaunty grub into the main grub it is gonna be so good | 08:02 |
| mostafa_ | can i? | 08:02 |
| mostafa_ | cos now the intrepid grub is the main one | 08:03 |
| mostafa_ | ? | 08:03 |
| mostafa_ | :D | 08:03 |
| kalp | i am trying to convert a folder full of wave files to mp3 files, what command should i giv to avoid giving 'lame' command for each file? | 08:03 |
| raphink | kalp: you can run a loop on your files | 08:03 |
| raphink | for i in *.wave; do yourlamecommandon $i; done | 08:04 |
| kalp | how? | 08:04 |
| raphink | kalp: I just told you :) | 08:04 |
| raphink | what is the lame command you're running on each file currently? | 08:05 |
| mostafa_ | bazhang: do u C my previous saying? | 08:06 |
| bazhang | mostafa_, did you finalize the menu.lst? | 08:06 |

| bazhang | mostafa_, not understanding you; you can choose any 3 OS to boot from correct? | 08:10 |
| mostafa_ | yeah | 08:10 |
| bazhang | mostafa_, so why bother | 08:10 |
| mostafa_ | ok then u mean i just press enter at this notification | 08:11 |

| mostafa_ | bazhang : can i send u my both menu.lst files? | 08:12 |
| bazhang | mostafa_, are they working? | 08:12 |
| mostafa_ | when i install the jaunty it works as well then when i install the intrepid it says do u want to have another grub? then i say yes create a new one | 08:14 |
| mostafa_ | and then the intrepid became the main grub menu for me | 08:14 |
| bazhang | mostafa_, okay | 08:14 |
| bazhang | mostafa_, and is it working? then finalize it | 08:14 |
| mostafa_ | if you mean now i should say yes the intrepid grub works well | 08:15 |
| bazhang | okay, then finalize it | 08:16 |

| mostafa_ | again thanx | 08:20 |
| raphink | Teclys: Ubuntu/Kubuntu versions are named after year and month of release, so 9.10 is for october 2009 and 9.04 is for april 2009. Given that we are in July 2009, the most recent released version is the one from april :) | 08:21 |

| mostafa | bazhang: the installation was correct and nothing to be worry about but when i restart nothing changed i think because the main grub is for intrepid | 08:26 |

| ShishKabab | Hello. I've installed Apache2 on a Kubuntu 9.04 box, but can't get it to automatically start. I did 'sudo update-rc.d apache2 defaults' which normally is enough but not this time. Any suggestions? | 11:14 |
| libervisco | "Trash has exceeded its maximum size".. wtf is that "feature"? | 11:14 |
| libervisco | says so even after I remove stuff from trash manually.. | 11:15 |
| Mamarok | libervisco: you can fix the size of the Trash bin yourself, right click on the bin | 11:15 |
| Mamarok | libervisco: and you obviously are going to erase a file or a folder that is bigger than the default size | 11:15 |
| Mamarok | you can erase it bypassing the Trash with Ctrl+Del | 11:16 |
| Mamarok | libervisco: right click on the trash has the option to empty it | 11:16 |
| libervisco | right, but I already emptied the trash.. and the files I want to put there aren't that big.. I just don't get the point of limiting trash size.. | 11:16 |
| libervisco | the empty option is shaded | 11:17 |
| Mamarok | libervisco: because there is nothing inside | 11:17 |
| Mamarok | change the size of the bin then :) | 11:17 |
| libervisco | right, but it was shaded anyway.. sometimes the trash icon doesn't update :S | 11:17 |
| Mamarok | or erase with Ctrl+Del | 11:17 |
| Mamarok | works for me in 4.2.98 | 11:17 |
| mataks | how to enable compiz in KDE? | 11:18 |
| raphink | mataks: KDE has its own effects, you don't need compiz | 11:18 |
| mataks | im used to compiz.. how to enable compiz in kde/ | 11:19 |
| libervisco | there are no option in the right click menu to resize bin.. | 11:19 |
| libervisco | and also.. one of the files managed to get into trash now and I emptied it, but it shows full | 11:20 |
| libervisco | and it does that sort of thing often :P | 11:20 |
| Mamarok | mataks: use teh Kwin compositing, it's pretty much the same as compiz | 11:20 |
| libervisco | but that was always like that on Linux.. GNOME trash, KDE trash, they all do it | 11:20 |
| Mamarok | system settings -> Desktop -> deskto effects | 11:20 |
| Mamarok | libervisco: what KDE version do you have? | 11:21 |
| libervisco | 4.3 rc3 | 11:21 |
| mataks | Mamarok, i don't know how to use it im just new to kde.. where can i find it? | 11:21 |
| libervisco | Version 4.2.98 (KDE 4.2.98 (KDE 4.3 RC3)) | 11:21 |
| Mamarok | libervisco: then something is wrong with your settings, the trash bin widget works fine here, always has btw | 11:21 |
| munny | Hi all! | 11:22 |
| Mamarok | mataks: read what I said above | 11:22 |
| Mamarok | in the system settings | 11:22 |
| libervisco | ah.. well widgets seem a little messed up here.. I can't enable newly installed widgets | 11:22 |
| libervisco | and last night the weather forecast one mysteriously vanished | 11:23 |
| mataks | Mamarok, is this the one.. desktop effects? | 11:23 |
| Mamarok | libervisco: restarted KDE? | 11:23 |
| munny | anyone can help me with mysql? | 11:23 |
| Mamarok | mataks: yes, read what I told you, you can set all the options there | 11:23 |
| libervisco | Mamarok, I did before.. | 11:23 |
| libervisco | after the upgrade | 11:24 |
| Mamarok | libervisco: how did you upgrade to RC3? going through all the previous updates or in one setp from 4.2.x? | 11:24 |
| libervisco | I went through all of them.. I started with KDE 4.3 beta2 | 11:24 |
| Mamarok | libervisco: try moving your ~/.kde/ to ~/.kde_backup/ and restart KDE again | 11:24 |
| Mamarok | libervisco: you can then copy over the stuff you need form the old settings | 11:25 |
| libervisco | ok | 11:25 |
| libervisco | I don't mind setting it up from scratch anyway if it works :) | 11:25 |
| libervisco | Mamarok, thanks.. brb | 11:26 |
| munny | I would install mysql server 5.1 from dotdeb... but i can't because is in conflict with package mysql-server-core-5.0 | 11:26 |
| Mamarok | munny: why do you want another mysql version? | 11:27 |
| mataks | i still want to use compiz.. kwin is good but compiz is much better... how to use compiz in kde? | 11:27 |
| Mamarok | you can get it from the repositories too in Kubuntu 9.04 | 11:27 |
| Mamarok | mataks: that is more tricky, you need to disable Kwin, never did so, sorry | 11:28 |
| Mamarok | munny: in general you should avoid packages from third party sources if there is one in the repositories | 11:29 |
| munny | mamarok: because i need to use some feauters in 5.1 like Event scheduler... i'm a developer... | 11:29 |
| Mamarok | munny: then take the 5.1 from the repositories, it is already there in 9.04 | 11:29 |
| Mamarok | munny: the package name is mysql-server-5.1 | 11:30 |
| munny | Mamarok yes thank you... but it'not | 11:31 |
| Mamarok | munny: which Kubuntu version do you have? | 11:31 |
| munny | Mamarok i would latest version | 11:31 |
| munny | Mamarok: 9.04 with KDE 4.3RC3 | 11:32 |
| Mamarok | munny: then it is there, I see it in my repositories | 11:32 |
| Mamarok | munny: try sudo apt-get install mysql-server-5.1 | 11:32 |
| munny | Mamarok: i see in official repositories mysql 5.1.31 latest version is 5.1.36 | 11:34 |
| Mamarok | munny: and you absolutely need the latest one? | 11:34 |
| Mamarok | munny: then you need to compile it yourself | 11:34 |
| knusperfrosch | hi! | 11:35 |
| Mamarok | munny: to avoid a conflict with the 5.0 needed for Aknoadi, install it locally, this is much more suitable for development anyway | 11:36 |
| knusperfrosch | got a program that's wrapped in a bash script and needs a konsole to startup, can i hide that window somehow? | 11:36 |
| munny | Mamarok i'm trying to install from official repositories but i've always problem with broken dependencies | 11:36 |
| munny | Mamarok the problem is always mysql-server-core-5.0 | 11:37 |
| Mamarok | munny: did you read what I said above? | 11:37 |
| Mamarok | install it locally to avoid the conflict with the installed version | 11:37 |
| Mamarok | munny: you are a developer, no? so this should not be that difficult for you | 11:38 |
| munny | Mamarok yes... but usually i would spent time to write software not to compile... if there's already a package i would use that | 11:39 |
| munny | ;) | 11:39 |
| Mamarok | munny: well, resolving dependencies is easy for a dev IMHO, I can do that and I am not a developer | 11:40 |
| Mamarok | munny: and writing software without compiling, how do you test then? | 11:41 |
| munny | Mamarok i don't know very well linux yet... | 11:41 |
| Mamarok | munny: it's easy to learn, there is always documentation coming with the source coed, in the readme and install files | 11:42 |
| Mamarok | code* | 11:42 |
| munny | Mamarok if i must compile every time all software i use i can't do anything... i'm thinking to migrate to another distribution beacause i love kubuntu but i don't like versioning repositories | 11:43 |
| Mamarok | munny: I can install that package here, so it should work for you too | 11:43 |
| Mamarok | munny: what broken dependencies do you get from apt-get? Paste the output in http://paste.ubuntu.com and give the URL back | 11:44 |
| Mamarok | munny: usually you should make a chroot for development, so you install only what you need | 11:45 |
| Mamarok | munny: see also this: http://em.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chroot | 11:45 |
| Mamarok | this is done once, then you have a development environnement and can work without hassle, takes not more than 30 minutes *once* | 11:46 |
| munny | Mamarok: this is the link | 11:49 |
| munny | http://paste.ubuntu.com/238899/ | 11:49 |
| munny | apt-get has remove all my kde... | 11:50 |
| Mamarok | munny: I don't think so | 11:50 |
| libervisco | Newly installed widgets still don't work | 11:51 |
| Mamarok | munny: I didn't tell you to proceed IIRC, just paste the dependecy output | 11:51 |
| Mamarok | munny: also read the link I gave you for chroot | 11:51 |
| munny | Mamarok yes i'm reading...thank you... | 11:51 |
| Mamarok | ok, I have to run, cu later, folks | 11:53 |
| Mamarok | libervisco: do you have all kdebase-* installed? as well as all plasma packages? | 11:54 |
| munny | Mamarok tank again ;) | 11:54 |
| Mamarok | munny: you are welcome :) | 11:54 |

I still can't get anything larger than a 640x480 resolution even though I have them specified in the xorg.conf. xrandr says I can't access those modes | 13:08 |

| DaskreeCH | bazhang: nvidia | 13:10 |
| RodrItachi | WAT? | 13:10 |
| bazhang | DaskreeCH, does nvidia-settings not do it? | 13:10 |
| DaskreeCH | bazhang: hmm not sure I was trying nvidia-config | 13:11 |
| RodrItachi | ATI Radeon>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>NVidia | 13:12 |
| DaskreeCH | I know I've not had any problems with My ATI card | 13:13 |
| === bongo is now known as Guest36793 | ||
| DaskreeCH | bazhang: how do I change resolution with that? | 13:39 |
| bazhang | DaskreeCH, do you have it installed? | 13:40 |
| bazhang | !info nvidia-settings | 13:40 |
| ubottu | nvidia-settings (source: nvidia-settings): Tool of configuring the NVIDIA graphics driver. In component main, is optional. Version 180.25-0ubuntu1 (jaunty), package size 753 kB, installed size 1888 kB (Only available for i386 amd64) | 13:40 |
| bazhang | DaskreeCH, provides a nice gui for setting it up; though it may well be your driver, which card and driver? | 13:41 |
| === rodrigo is now known as RodrItachi | ||
| DaskreeCH | bazhang: Geforce FX 5200 and the 180 driver | 13:49 |
| bazhang | DaskreeCH, that tool always just worked for me, is that the recommended driver per Hardware Drivers? | 13:51 |
| DaskreeCH | bazhang: I thought that I had installed 172 but either it autoupdated or something else happened. How do I set a resolution with the nvidia-settings tool ? | 13:53 |
| bazhang | DaskreeCH, its a control panel with loads of options, the problem is only if that driver is not the correct one; let me websearch if it is correct or not | 13:54 |
| DaskreeCH | bazhang: Rebooted and X comes up properly now but I still can't set the resolution even though it's in the xorg.conf ? | 14:08 |
| DaskreeCH | bazhang: Using 173 now | 14:08 |
| bazhang | DaskreeCH, that is the correct one | 14:09 |
| DaskreeCH | I remembered all the others (except 91 I think) giving problems. Any idea why the resolution is ignored? | 14:10 |
| DaskreeCH | Should I try the nvidia-config again ? | 14:10 |
| bazhang | DaskreeCH, did you choose from hardware drivers, enable it and then reboot? (ie it was installed before reboot) | 14:10 |
| DaskreeCH | Yes | 14:10 |
| bazhang | DaskreeCH, xorg.conf is pretty much empty these days; I would take a try with the nvidia-settings tool | 14:11 |
| DaskreeCH | V_v | 14:12 |
| DaskreeCH | HOw do I set resolution in there ? | 14:12 |

| mostafa | can anyone help me how to add a menu to grub2.0? | 14:12 |
| DaskreeCH | mostafa: Try in #ubuntu+1 | 14:12 |
| mostafa | DaskreeCH: how could i get in there? | 14:13 |
| bazhang | DaskreeCH, alt f2 nvidia-settings | 14:13 |
| DaskreeCH | mostafa: type /join #ubuntu+1 in the IRC client | 14:13 |
| DaskreeCH | bazhang: Right then ? | 14:13 |
| bazhang | mostafa, you using karmic? | 14:13 |
| bazhang | DaskreeCH, you have it installed? it's a huge control panel with a load of options | 14:14 |
| DaskreeCH | Yes but no way to set resolution that I can see | 14:14 |
| bazhang | DaskreeCH, does your xorg.conf show the proprietary driver as being used? | 14:15 |
| DaskreeCH | yes | 14:15 |
| DaskreeCH | driver "nvidia" | 14:16 |
| bazhang | well googling for that card and driver turned a load of bugs | 14:16 |
| DaskreeCH | \o/ | 14:16 |
| bazhang | mostafa, if your current grub setting is working, no reason to go fiddling with it | 14:17 |
| DaskreeCH | I found one on launchpad that says there is a well known bug with detection of montiors leading to a issue with refresh rate and then Resolution | 14:17 |
| DaskreeCH | i.e. exactly what I'm seeing the listed workaround does great right up till actually getting a resolution other than 640x480 | 14:18 |
| DaskreeCH | Hmm I wonder what happens if I take that option out of the config | 14:18 |
| bazhang | setting modelines might well do | 14:18 |

| shadeslayer | DaskreeCH: really? i thought nvidia has better support,i have a nvidia :) | 14:38 |
| DaskreeCH | suuuuucks | 14:38 |
| shadeslayer | well..maybe since i have a relatively new card..... | 14:38 |
| DaskreeCH | wait KDE | 14:38 |
| DaskreeCH | Sukkkkks | 14:38 |
| shadeslayer | \o/ | 14:39 |
| DaskreeCH | Yeah they dropped support for a whole lot of cards recently | 14:39 |
| shadeslayer | imho it gets better and better every release.. | 14:39 |
| DaskreeCH | and those they kept around are now really spotty | 14:39 |
| shadeslayer | DaskreeCH: yeah,i heard,that just plain sucks | 14:39 |
| shadeslayer | hmm | 14:40 |
| DaskreeCH | and intel has open source drivers anyway AMD gives out the full specs for the Crds so we can make our own drivers. nvidia it's buy a new card or suck it up | 14:40 |

| DaskreeCH | but... Ire!! | 14:42 |

| ubottu | DaskreeCH: The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type « sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart » in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution | 14:42 |
| DaskreeCH | shadeslayer: Doesn't work | 14:42 |
| mostafa | bazhnag: because i make images by that | 14:42 |
| shadeslayer | DaskreeCH: not even by editing xorg ? | 14:43 |
| mostafa | bazhang: and restore them | 14:43 |
| bazhang | mostafa, system rescue cd? for windows? | 14:43 |
| mostafa | bazhang:no for linux | 14:43 |
| DaskreeCH | shadeslayer: Modes "1600x1200" "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480" | 14:43 |

| shadeslayer | DaskreeCH: you did restart x,right? | 14:44 |
| bazhang | mostafa, not clear what you are trying to do | 14:44 |
| DaskreeCH | driver "nvidia" | 14:44 |
| bazhang | mostafa, how does this relate to grub2 | 14:44 |
| mostafa | bazhang : i boot it from the hard drive and have it as a menu on the grub | 14:44 |
| shadeslayer | DaskreeCH: ill pastebin my xorg.. | 14:44 |
| mostafa | better to say had it | 14:45 |
| bazhang | mostafa, where did you install system rescue cd from | 14:45 |
| shadeslayer | DaskreeCH: http://pastebin.com/f26183e23 | 14:45 |
| shadeslayer | ok,now onto my problem....kdm starts too late...any help? | 14:46 |
| DaskreeCH | shadeslayer: Should I try this instead of mine? | 14:46 |
| mostafa | i just get the iso and then copy the contents into a partition then add that address to the menu of the grub then it works for me and it acts like a stable bootable cd | 14:46 |
| DaskreeCH | shadeslayer: Tell it to go to bed earlier? | 14:46 |
| shadeslayer | DaskreeCH: no!! just take a cue and compare the 2 | 14:46 |
| DaskreeCH | Ha ha | 14:46 |
| shadeslayer | hehe... | 14:46 |
| bazhang | mostafa, installed from where | 14:46 |
| DaskreeCH | shadeslayer: http://pastebin.com/m410cf131 | 14:47 |
| shadeslayer | DaskreeCH: you have tried all the methods in the wiki? | 14:47 |
| DaskreeCH | Not even remotely close :-) | 14:47 |
| mostafa | i said i didn't install anything i just copy the iso contents to a partition | 14:47 |
| DaskreeCH | !grub | mostafa | 14:48 |
| ubottu | mostafa: GRUB is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto | 14:48 |
| DaskreeCH | mostafa: Follw that | 14:48 |
| bazhang | mostafa, what is the link for that cd; why not use recovery mode instead | 14:48 |
| shadeslayer | DaskreeCH: yeah....i think theres a command to reset the default values of Xserver...do you have this problem since the beggining? | 14:48 |
| DaskreeCH | shadeslayer: Nope just since yesterday when apparently the driver updated itself to 180 instead of 173 without me saying anything | 14:49 |
| shadeslayer | DaskreeCH: so have you tried the 180 driver? | 14:49 |
| shadeslayer | *173 | 14:49 |
| DaskreeCH | Then X would boot but I couldn't see anything hence me removing the refresh rate and now I can't get anything other than 640x480 | 14:49 |
| DaskreeCH | I had to roll back to 173 | 14:50 |
| DaskreeCH | I'm on that now | 14:50 |
| shadeslayer | DaskreeCH: yes,so did it work? | 14:50 |
| DaskreeCH | <--- IRE | 14:50 |
| * shadeslayer guesses 180 does not have support for DaskreeCH's card | 14:50 | |
| DaskreeCH | It does but I would have to be an entomologist | 14:52 |
| mostafa | bazhang : check this out i hope u get what i am saying with this | 14:57 |

| EagleScreen | ign0ramus: /etc/apt/sources.list.d | 23:54 |
| ign0ramus | EagleScreen, checking now... i also found some references in /var/lib/apt/ too | 23:55 |

| ign0ramus | EagleScreen, i assume that was added using wget at one point? | 23:56 |

| ign0ramus | EagleScreen, good to know - plus I have a ton of graphics updates that were apparently being held back by that error. good stuff :) | 23:57 |
