[00:00] I tried to install the realtime kernel (linux-rt and the headers packahe), and now when i boot up to the rt kernel, instead of it taking me to my normal gui login screen, its terminal style (like if i went to another tty server to log in) i tried to login and run startx, but that didnt work. Why is it acting like this? [00:00] you can ignore it [00:00] ok kubuntu desktop is not in synaptic [00:01] i only have 3 repos [00:06] ok so whats the deal with kdm and why cant i change the theme easily? [00:07] whatta up ... [00:09] trying to change the kdm themes and ive downloaded a few but cant seem to get them to work looked on google for help and been to the ubuntu forums and it tells me to change the kdmrc file and i have done but the themes dont load === desti_T2 is now known as desti [00:11] anyone have any input on kdm themes? [00:27] how do i update from kde 4.2 to the new kde 4.3.0 [00:27] isnt it sudo apt get update\ [00:32] webbb: dist-upgrade [00:32] webbb: and read the topic [00:33] i dont see a topic [00:41] hola buenas [00:42] de que hablais [00:58] que cosas no? [01:01] what is the dist more lightweigth and complete of linux [01:02] \hey guyz [01:02] hey [01:02] deos anyone know a dock that i can have for kubuntu [01:02] oem: lightwight and complete? hard to do :P [01:02] ? [01:02] yes, [01:03] what is the name of it? [01:03] i think so, of all lightwiegth what is the most complete [01:03] then [01:03] ?? [01:03] damn small linux [01:03] :) [01:05] how is kde 5 gonna look like? [01:06] yo i really need help [01:07] when ever i try to search for a program in the softwARE DOWNLOADER THING [01:07] I GET this [01:07] The backend took too much time to process the synchronous request - you need to fork! [01:08] karan- it's safe to ignore that error [01:08] but no results of software show up [01:09] Pretty sure it was fixed a while ago, I think in KDE 4.2.3 or 4.2.4 [01:09] im in kde 4.3 [01:09] oem: you want a more complete distro? [01:10] oem: try Puppy or DSL [01:10] karan: yes that's a known bug should be fixed inthe next release you can search on the command line with apt-cache search [01:11] so do u guyz know a dock like cairodock for kde? [01:11] Dragnslcr: It's not a KDE error it's a kpackagekit error [01:11] Just use cario dock? [01:11] cairo [01:11] i get this black box around it :S [01:11] i going to download DSL [01:11] Ah right [01:11] oem: try puppy as wel [01:11] when i was using mint linux i was able to use awn with no errors.. [01:12] Daskreech- I know, but I don't think KPackageKit gets updated separately from KDE [01:13] Dragnslcr : it does [01:13] It does [01:13] and it's even not a KPackagekit issue [01:13] If they pull all the KDE source and update it (KDE 4.3) Then that means nothing for Kpackagekit [01:13] Guess I just didn't notice any separate updates for it [01:13] it's a backend (the apt backend) issue [01:14] are you sure? cause I can use the apt backend to search [01:14] "The backend took too much time to process the synchronous request - you need to fork!" the error says so [01:14] how do i get rid of the black background for cairo-dock? [01:16] Pliskin: Yes but the error can be mistaken [01:17] karan: I'd have to see it to figure out what's causing it. nvidia drivers are having a black bug issue again for some windows [01:18] so should i switch to normal ubuntu then? [01:18] what linux distro do u guyz think is the best? [01:18] Depends on preferences [01:19] hi all [01:19] well [01:19] wich distro looks the best? [01:19] other than linux mint.. [01:19] how i can i disable pulseaudio in kubuntu? [01:20] Personally I like Mandriva. [01:20] any other opininions... [01:20] karan: Looks the best? Umm I dunno [01:20] Suse is nicely integrated [01:20] k my graphics card cant support compiz but it can support awn..... [01:21] Any distro could be configured to look awesome [01:21] karan: What video card? [01:21] i ike kde 4 plasma though [01:22] its a very old nvidia one [01:22] um [01:22] how do check [01:23] do i* [01:23] sudo lshw -c video [01:23] -C [01:23] wht's the commande to get all folder USB in my computer [01:24] trapa: Folder USB ?

[04:54] i read that message to mean that the plasmoid was unstable, not the NetworkManager 'service', right? [04:55] uh if so then maybe you can somehow use Konsole for that.

Not sure whether Kubuntu can use that... [07:26] LVM is Logical Volume Manager; it's a standard linux thing; you guys have it in apt. [07:26] ah [07:26] I'm not really 'into' ubuntu, i'm using this system to get data off of my laptop so I can send it in for repair [07:27] PhrkOnLsh: have you done modprobe dmmod? [07:27] or dm-mod [07:27] Haha. I am new to it too... Oi. You boot from a live CD? That can be a problem, i heard it has some problems when you use that [07:27] and vgchancge -ay [07:27] macrobat: neither of those modules were found [07:28] macrobat: what the hell is this stuff?? [07:28] theadmin: no, it's an old desktop that my parents use, running 9.04 [07:28] iset it up for them way back when [07:29] its a layer over the harddisks, you can manage partitions better, have more partitions, take snapshots... [07:29] PhrkOnLsh: I'm assuming you did pvscan already ? [07:29] theadmin: that vgchange didn't work :( [07:29] vgscan I did. [07:29] pvscan is sth else? [07:29] PhrkOnLsh: It's vgchange -a y [07:29] Daskreech: tried that too, per man page [07:29] the sequence is pvscan && lvscan && vgscan && vgchange -a y [07:30] ohmai [07:30] okay, let me see [07:30] Yeah I know I do it a lot I have a script that does it for me [07:30] technically you should do a fdisk -l before all that [07:31] http://linuxwave.blogspot.com/2007/11/mounting-lvm-disk-using-ubuntu-livecd.html [07:31] Whoops lvscan is last [07:31] something sounded fishy :) [07:32] something is wrong... pvscan didn't see it [07:32] Daskreech: with lvm, do you use grub2? do you have /boot inside the lvm? [07:33] PhrkOnLsh: see if there is a /dev/mapper folder [07:33] Is it bad that plasma-widget-network-manager is being kept back on my system? [07:34] crazy6, why would it be bad? [07:34] macrobat: only control file in it [07:34] theadmin: don't I want all up to date packages? [07:34] crazy6: in general that just means that you wont upgrade to an incompatable version [07:34] ah ok [07:35] yeah, pvscan is returning nothing :(( [07:35] I've had a lot of problems with network manager in the past years, it's never really worked right... I'm afraid to try it! [07:35] crazy6: you want a system where all pkgs work with all others, apt takes care of thet [07:35] there are cli methods, i too had trouble with network manager [07:35] crazy6, something is wrong here, networkmanager always worked fine for me... The one built in to 9.0.4 that is [07:36] i wont touch the stuff :) [07:36] theadmin: oh, well, since I upgraded to KDE4, it hasn't been able to connect to any WEP / WPA networks [07:37] crazy6: plasma-widget-networkmanager is a mess upstream too [07:37] and just recently KDE4 was crashing on startup if networkmanager was running [07:37] crazy6: stick with GNOME nm-applet [07:38] PhrkOnLsh: don't I need to be running gnome to use that? [07:38] no of course not [07:38] is there not knetworkmanager? [07:39] there is... let me go see if it actually works now [07:40] try wicd [07:41] OHMAIGOD [07:41] There is a power switch on my usb-to-sata adapter [07:41] Guess where it was set :D [07:41] PhrkOnLsh: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.

[09:42] i have ubuntu on my machine and i wanted to try kubuntu but when i try to install it gives error [09:44] here is the error i am getting while installing http://paste.ubuntu.com/249676/ === desu_ is now known as desu [09:44] command for installing sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop [09:45] HELP HELP [09:46] help?? [09:49] rendy: i have ubuntu on my machine and i wanted to try kubuntu but when i try to install it gives error [09:49] rendy: here is the error i am getting while installing http://paste.ubuntu.com/249676/ [09:54] ashishbindal4: Looks like a dns error maybe. Try "dig http://archive.ubuntu.com", then try installing again [09:59] please i need help to upgrade my kde in ubuntu. [10:02] milo__: you mean you want KDE 4.3? [10:02] bhuey: see the topic :) [10:03] ciao [10:03] c'è qualcuno?? [10:03] !it | antonio_ [10:03] antonio_: Vai su #ubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie! (click col tasto destro sul nome del canale per entrare) [10:04] i have kde installed on my ubuntu and i'd like to upgrade it to the 4.3 but im experiencing some problems [10:04] milo__: what problems exactly? if you did an upgrade, could you repeat it in a konsole and paste the output in http://paste.ubuntu.com, please? [10:05] Mamraok: ok. minute then [10:05] ok [10:06] Mamraok: http://paste.ubuntu.com:80/249692/ [10:07] milo__: take that out of your list, it's not needed anymore [10:08] and that is not what I would call a problem :) [10:08] Mamarok: i dn't really understand ... :D [10:09] milo__: you do not need this source anymore, everything is in the backports ppa now [10:09] Mamarok: ah ok. So all i need is to add the GPG key? [10:09] milo__: what I expected from you was an output of sudo apt-get update %% sudo apt get upgrade [10:09] indeed [10:10] milo__: do you neede the lines on how to add the gpgp key? [10:10] Mamarok: ah ok. let me try it. I have a HOWTO in front of me and it says i need it ... [10:11] gpg --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv 2836CB0A8AC93F7A [10:11] then: gpg --export --armor 2836CB0A8AC93F7A | sudo apt-key add - [10:11] don't forget the hyphen at the end of the second line [10:12] Mamarok: ok. Im doing sudo apt-get update right now; i'll try this one just after ;) [10:14] Mamarok: do u want me to paste what i got for the first line? [10:15] milo__: in a pastebin, yes, please [10:16] milo__: you need to add this key before you do an update [10:16] else it doesn't read the repo at all [10:16] Mamarok: ok. [10:17] Mamarok: this is for the first line: http://paste.ubuntu.com:80/249709/ [10:18] milo__: then you just take the key given in the instructions on the kubuntu.org website and save it as backportppa.gpg [10:20] Mamarok: ok. so do i have to paste in openOffice and save it that way? [10:20] no, not in Openoffice, very bad idea [10:20] Mamarok: please i have a question [10:20] paste it in a simple text editor, lie kate [10:20] like [10:21] yes? [10:21] Mamarok: im a newbie to linux and i'd like to knw what is repo and why don't i need the first line i showed u before? [10:23] milo__: a repo is a repository for packages [10:23] and you don't need that first line anymore because all the packages are now in the backports PPA, didn't I explain that earlier? [10:23] Mamarok: a kind of basement? No :) but u'v just done it :D [10:24] did you copy that key (the complete ley with all the lines) in kate and saved it? [10:24] milo__: 11:09 < Mamarok> milo__: you do not need this source anymore, everything is in the backports ppa now [10:24] about 15 minutes ago :) [10:25] Mamarok: hw do u knw that? [10:25] how do I know what? [10:25] Mamarok: that everything is in the backports abt 15mn ago... [10:26] milo__: I know this sincre about two days :) [10:26] because the instructions have changed on the website, and the devs said so :) [10:26] -r [10:26] Mamarok: haha. I see. [10:26] but I told you that 15 minutes ago already :) [10:27] Mamarok: Aah. So what abt my update? [10:27] milo__: ok, did you save that key? [10:27] Mamarok: yes [10:28] now you add it to your keyring with this instruction: [10:28] gpg --import backportsppa.gpg [10:28] or whatever name you gave the file [10:28] Mamarok: ok [10:30] once this is done, you do sudo apt-get update, then sudo apt-get upgrade [10:30] if it tells you that there a packages held back on the second line, you do sudo apt-get dist-upgrade [10:30] Mamarok: for some reasons, it can't open the file... the file appears with a LOCK sign indeed [10:31] :( [10:31] milo__: did you save it with kate? [10:31] yup [10:31] milo__: try again, but name the file backportsppa.txt this time [10:32] Mamarok: ok [10:36] Mamarok: still not working ( it's not with a lock sign this time though) [10:36] milo__: did you copy the key from this page: http://keyserver.ubuntu.com:11371/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0x2836CB0A8AC93F7A ? [10:37] no, i didn't ... let me do it [10:37] you need to copy everything except the bold title, the key starts with ---BEGIN [10:39] Mamarok:done i'll try to import it no [10:39] now* [10:42] Mamarok: this is done but can u tell me what this means : gpg: no ultimately trusted keys found [10:42] milo__: ? that is strange [10:42] are the ubuntu servers down again? [10:43] doesn't it tell you 1 key imported? [10:43] yes it does [10:43] kaddi: that doesn't matter, we already have the key fingerprint [10:43] ah ok [10:43] milo__: then try again sudo apt-get update [10:43] there should be no more error about the gpg key [10:43] Mamarok: ok [10:43] Mamarok sorry, I wasn't trying to interfer... I'm having trouble updating and am wondering if this is on my end or on theirs ;) [10:44] well, the keyserver is eventually down, but you can simply import from another keyserver, they synchronize [10:44] I have been trouble updating the entire last week actually [10:44] so the key should be available anywhere [10:45] kaddi: you mean the keayserver? [10:45] Mamarok: it's done. WITHOUT ERROR :) [10:45] milo__: good, now 'sudo apt-get upgrade' [10:45] Mamarok no, the normal ubuntu-servers... ah, lol... I might just try another server... I can't believe I didn't get the idea earlier [10:46] kaddi: I use the main server, no problem with that, but some mirrros might sometimes have problems [10:47] Mamarok I have been using ubuntu.com as well, but starting tuesday I have been getting timeouts and messages that updates could not be downloaded because the source was unavailable [10:47] strange, I didn't see that, but maybe it was because of the KDE 4.3 release, everybody wants it now :) [10:48] kde 4.3 has been released? [10:48] * kaddi is sleepwalking through the world right now [10:48] on Tuesday, yes :) [10:48] well that would explain why they were hard to reach :p [10:48] kaddi: where do you live that you haven heard about that? I was everywhere in the news :) [10:48] it* [10:48] Freiburg :p [10:48] Hy, weiß wer wie ich firefox ind kubuntu installieren kann? [10:49] and it definitly wasn't in the news here ;) [10:49] me too, but in that other country :) [10:49] *in [10:49] !de | dasmoep [10:49] dasmoep: In den meisten ubuntu-Kanälen wird nur Englisch gesprochen.

[10:57] mamarok: processong now taking place :) [10:57] milo__: did it say something about packages held back? [10:58] Mamarok: let me check that please. [11:00] Mamarok: I can't see anything like that [11:00] good :) [11:02] Mamarok: i need to restart, isn't it? [11:02] no, only to log out of KDE, then log in again [11:03] unless it tells you so, because if you don't install a new kernel, you don't need to reboot [11:04] Mamarok: I see. Please could you help me on something else? [11:04] just ask [11:04] dasmoep: English! [11:05] oops, my bad, my lines slipped [11:06] Mamork: it's abt my sudo power. Im not sure bt it's just like there r some directories and files i can't access. I always get permission denied [11:06] Mamarok: for example : /etc/sudoers.... [11:06] milo__: well, you don't need access to anything else than your /home, and sometimes to /etc or /var for logs [11:07] and those should all work with sudo [11:07] you should never mingle in other system folders anyway [11:07] Mamarok: I see... for security reasons i suppose. [11:08] indeed, as you can completely break the system if you make an error or erase something by mistake [11:09] Mamarok: Thanks. I have something else to ask [11:09] just ask :) [11:10] Mamarok: I can't watch some videos on facebook and sometimes when i try to watch videos on youtube or dailymotion, it completely slows down my internet or even freezes it [11:12] !realtime [11:12] Sorry, I don't know anything about realtime [11:12] !real-time [11:12] Sorry, I don't know anything about real-time [11:15] !rt [11:15] The RT kernel is the Ubuntu kernel with a realtime preemption patch applied. It is included in Ubuntu Studio by default. For more information please see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RealTime/ [11:16] how can I list all kernels that are installed on my system? is there an easy way to know what is installed? (even the ones, that were removed from the grub list) [11:17] milo__: dont touch /etc/sudoers, use visudo if you absolutely have to edit it. clive downloads flash videos so you can watch them later [11:17] kaddi: aptitude search linux-image [11:18] the ones that are installed are marked with an i [11:18] macrobat: ok. I have clive but since sometimes it can't download dailymotion on my laptop. It works for youtube bt not dailymotion [11:19] ok, i havent tried dailymotion download [11:19] it used to work! [11:19] :( [11:19] macrobat: dpkg --list | grep linux-image works nicely as well. :) (yeah, I only remembered google exists after I asked :/ ) [11:20] I tried to install the realtime kernel (linux-rt and the headers packahe), and now when i boot up to the rt kernel, instead of it taking me to my normal gui login screen, its terminal style (like if i went to another tty server to log in) i tried to login and run startx, but that didnt work. Why is it acting like this? [11:21] fg56lx: what should a real-time kernel do else then? [11:22] i would like to record music with an rt-kernel :) [11:23] macrobat: That's what im trying to do, to get Jack to run in RT. [11:23] yes [11:23] whats the output of who -r [11:23] and runlevel [11:23] "run-level 2 2009-08-07 17:02" [11:24] hmm, i dont know [11:28] so it seems I have a total of 8 different kernels on my machine, while I only use the latest (2.6.30). Which is why I would like to remove some of them (say the old 2.6.27* ones). Can I simply run "apt-get remove -purge 2.6.27*" or might this break something? [11:28] kaddi: sudo aptitude autoremove should do it for you [11:29] as it will remove obsolete stuff [11:30] Mamarok you mean apt-get autoremove? aptitude doesn't have an option "autoremove" on my system [11:30] autoclean? [11:31] macrobat autoclean will only remove the packages from which the program where installed, it will not uninstall the program, as far as i know [11:32] i would keep the two latest kernels, remove the rest [11:33] apt-get autoremove does not uninstall the old kernels though [11:33] let me check [11:33] 2.6.27.11/9/7 are still installed [11:34] kaddi: just do aptitude upgrade, that will remove all obsolete packages [11:34] macrobat yeah, I won't keep only one.. but I think the 27-kernels were installed in intrepid, which is why I don't need them anymore [11:34] then purge it [11:34] Mamarok no, that doesn't uninstall the old kernels either [11:35] aptitude upgrade -purge? [11:35] aptitude pugrade removes it for me [11:35] upgrade* [11:36] upgrade didn't do anything... I usually update with apt-get -upgrade, so if it did remove them, they should be long gone.. [11:36] else you can use synaptic and do it via the GUI [11:36] kaddi: aptitude, not apt-get [11:36] that's not the same application [11:36] I know, I ran aptitude -upgrade just now, it said it didn't do anything [11:36] 0 Pakete aktualisiert, 0 zusätzlich installiert, 0 werden entfernt und 0 nicht aktualisiert. [11:37] no need to use the hyphen [11:37] ? [11:37] I just did sudp aptitude update, the sudo aptitude upgrade and it removed the old 28-13 for me in Jaunty [11:37] sudo* [11:38] kaddi: you wrote aptitude -upgrade, that hyphen is not needed [11:39] Mamarok sorry, that was a typo in here, i typed it fine in konsole: http://pastebin.com/d1a9f8f9a [11:40] maybe it is because I'm not running the "default" kernel for jaunty? [11:40] hm, maybe because that kernel is from before Jaunty and it only removes those from the same release [11:40] yes, that's the most likely explanation [11:40] I updated to 2.6.30 because of the intel issues [11:40] (and kde is SO AWESOME now :D ) [11:41] then you need to make it manually, sudo apt-get purge *2.6.27-* [11:41] that should do the work [11:42] lol, that was the command I was initially asking about. this shouldn't affect any of the kernels I'm using right now, no? [11:43] no, as it specifies the exact version you want to remove, and of course, it will ask your confirmation [11:43] oh, can you pass * to apt-get? [11:44] I think so, you can for example make sudo apt-get install kdebase-* and it will choose all the relevant packages [11:46] you can, it'll list all the packages that match the expression and then list the packages it will actually remove :) [11:46] i would say aptitude purge ~n2.6.27 [11:47] hiho. Whats the name of the cpu-freq plamsoid with that lightning thingy an green battery sign? [11:47] fixl: plasma-widget-battery? [11:47] but those are two different things [11:47] one is the plasma-widget system-monitor, the other one for the battery [11:48] i basicly want to control my cpu freq [11:48] fixl i think you mean the guidance-power-manager [11:49] but that is not a widget, it is controlled through the system settings -> advanced tab [11:49] ahhh [11:49] yep :) [12:08] why would sudo apt-get purge 2.6.28-11* remove all kernels from the 2.6.28 version? http://pastebin.com/d44977617 === eli_ is now known as Elirips [12:24] kaddi: ouch, that is indeed very strange, but you should eventually remove the * behind the 11 [12:25] sudo apt-get purge 2.6.28-11-* lists only the relevant entries. Removing the * returns no matches at old, as the packages are called 2.6.28-11-headers etc [12:25] old=all [12:30] Mamarok do you think that this might be a bug with apt-get? Should I notify someone? [12:31] kaddi: did you try without the * at the end? Yes, this very much looks like a bug [12:32] Mamarok yes I did. It says no match "could not find package 2.6.28-11" [12:32] hm, then it is a bug, it should really only show the 2.6.28-11 packages, not at all the other ones [12:33] Mamarok ok, I'll post something on launchpad then :) just tested aptitude, which only remove the 11-packages :) [12:34] Hi I'm trying to use a Fritz!Wlan usb wireless stick... following the guidelines from the ubuntuusers wiki... but it won't connect [12:34] aptitude is a different app, it doesn't use apt-get at all [12:34] I get stuff like NetworkManager: wait_for_connection_expired(): Connection (2) [12:34] anybody any idea? [12:35] el_-: no, sorry, not my field [12:35] Mamarok yeah, I was just wondering if I was misreading syntax. I figured maybe 2.6.28-11* meant all packages containing 2.6.28 but not 11* === lakshana is now known as lakshana_ [12:41] hi someone have tried kde 4.3?

[14:03] amarok is being totaly gay on me [14:03] hello everybody [14:03] is there any way i can completely remove all settings and informations about it ? [14:04] like it was never there [14:04] and then install it again [14:04] ?? [14:06] My kubuntu randomly freezes. If I want to watch a video, freezes seem much more likely and if I have KWins compositing enabled and start a video a freeze is almost sure. [14:06] does anybody know what I can do about that? [14:06] I read that it might be a problem of jauntys kernel, so i tried the one from hardy and it didn't help [14:10] update kernel to 2.6.30 [14:11] sry, just had a freeze :-( [14:13] does anybody know what to do about that issue? As far as I found out from the internet I am not the only one encountering these problems. But I didn' find any solution [14:16] do u have intel video card ? [14:24] hi iam getting low sound in my laptop [14:24] could u pls solve my problem [14:27] ravimaddula: please check if all the channels are activated in kmix [14:27] right click on the loudspeaker icon in the status bar in the panel [14:31] yes i checked it [14:31] no, I have a ATI card [14:31] all activated [14:31] ejam: I have a ATI card and I use fglrx [14:32] ravimaddula: what backend do you use in phonon? System settings -> multimedia, backend tab [14:32] Newbee_: which card? som older cards don't work with the default fglrx driver in Jaunty [14:33] it' a HD2600mobile I gues [14:33] Newbee_: and does it work with fglrx? [14:34] wat it mean [14:34] fglrx [14:34] ravimaddula: that is a graphic driver, not an asmwer for you [14:34] aanswer* [14:34] ravimaddula: I startet my question with your nick :) [14:35] Mamarok: yes, it works. Compositing is fine. The performance with videos is not that great, but I could not realy test it, because compositing and watching a video (not flash just videos in a player like vlc) cause the system to freeze within seconds [14:35] Newbee_: how much Ram do you have on your system? [14:35] 4gb [14:35] 3 giga bytes [14:35] ravimaddula: please answer my question about the phonon backend [14:36] that should be enough, what video application do you use? [14:36] ati [14:36] ravimaddula: please, your question has nothing to do with graphic cards or drivers, you were asking about sound! [14:36] where can i find phonon [14:36] Mamarok: vlc (from the repositorys) and I also tried dragen player. But it didn't help [14:36] so either you answer my question or I can't help you [14:37] ravimaddula: I told you already: system settings -> multimedia, the backend tab [14:37] Newbee_: which KDE version do you have currently? [14:37] man, configuring audio in jaunty was a PITA [14:37] at least I got kde 4.3.0 running without the pulseaudio crap that came with kubuntu-restricted extras [14:38] also, I managed to get ATI Catalyst 9.3 running just fine with Jaunty ^_^ [14:38] PSiL0: do you have a support question? because what you are telling us is not really helpful, just facts [14:38] ravimaddula: did you find it? [14:38] Mamarok: currently I have KDE 4.3 but I already had the issue with 4.2 so I guess that this is not the root of the problem. But of course I actually don't know it. [14:39] i opened sound preference [14:39] if I had a question, wouldn't there have been a "?"... just facts... [14:39] Newbee_: well, try to remove some of the desktop effects, especially those you don't use [14:39] ravimaddula: sound preference? what version of KDE is that? [14:39] and i found the device is hdaatisb alc268 analog [14:39] PSiL0: well, then it doesn't belong here, this is a support channel [14:40] ravimaddula: there is a second tab on top that says backend, what backend do you use? [14:40] no i was in gnome environment [14:40] is it like alsa ...osss [14:40] type [14:40] ravimaddula: oh, but you are in the Kubuntu channel here, I can't help you with Gnome support, that would be in #ubuntu [14:41] wat can i do now [14:41] ravimaddula: ask in #ubuntu :) [14:41] ok thanq [14:41] you are welcome :) [14:42] Newbee_: what does top tell you about the CPU and memory usage when you have the video application running? [14:42] Mamarok: The problem is that even without compositing (so without all the effects) it freezes. But it does not freeze within secons but if i try to rezize the window with the video or do anything else. I seems to be rather random. [14:42] I have no problems here using both, slightly more ram than you, but it doesn't go above 2 Gb [14:43] Newbee_: and you are sure you have a full KDE installation? [14:43] Mamarok: I'll have a look, but it might couse a freeze and so I may be forced to reboot [14:44] Newbee_: well, the freeze could be due to a problem with the ATI driver, did you try the free radeon driver yet? [14:44] Mamarok: what to you mean with full installation? I did an upgrade to 4.3 with the kubuntu ppa and KDE4.3 never complained about missing things [14:45] Newbee_: well, you can check with aptitude search kde4, all things installed will have an i [14:45] if there is a long list of non -dev or non-dgb packages that are not installed, you might have to add some [14:45] Mamarok: long time ago, I think and it didn' work for me because there was no compositing anymore and the performance sucked. But I'll have some new tries [14:46] actually, I correct myself, all things installed have either an i or a p at the starting line [14:46] so aptitude search kde4 can help checking if things are missing [14:47] ditto with aptitude search plasma, and kdebase, and oxygen [14:48] the KDM theme for Jaunty's KDE 4.3 PPA doesn't leave enough space for big passwords so it looks awkward [14:48] Mamarok: thats almost everything. Almost everthing has an i or a p [14:48] eean: tell the devs :) [14:48] Newbee_: ok, the you have a full installation [14:48] yea I was wondering how I should do that [14:49] or does "bug Riddell about anything and everything" still work? :P [14:49] eean: file a bug against kdm? [14:49] i need help badly [14:49] or that :) [14:49] !ask | karan [14:49] karan: 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. :-) [14:50] Newbee_: I don't use the fglrx driver here, but the free radeon one, that might be an option [14:50] Hallo....ich habe eine frage zu pulseaudio und skype....

Für deutschsprachige Hilfe besuchen Sie bitte #ubuntu-de, #kubuntu-de, #edubuntu-de oder #ubuntu-at. Geben Sie einfach /join #ubuntu-de ein! Danke für Ihr Verständnis. [14:50] last night my screen resoloution was normal but suddenly when i logged in it changes to 800x600....and it deosn't give me the option to change the resolutionto a better and smaller quality [14:50] Mamarok: sorry [14:50] karan: which Kubuntu, which KDE version? [14:50] 4.3 for kde [14:51] and kubuntu [14:51] Mamarok: I played a video in smal size. Xorg took about 25%, vlc about 15% and plasma about 7% CPU. Memory was 4% for Xorg [14:51] 90.4 [14:51] 9.04, and the KDE version? [14:51] Newbee_: that's not much [14:51] Newbee_: how much does kwin take? [14:51] anyone know how to change the keyboard typematic rate in kde4? I can't seem to find it in the system settings applet. [14:52] karan: to see the kde version, you can check in dolphin for example, the help menu: about KDE [14:52] Mamarok: I always consider it much for playing a video in really smal size. but of course it doesn't seem critical at all. [14:52] all it has is the keyboard shortcuts, not the settings [14:52] dori: system settings, not in an widget [14:53] Newbee_: Linux uses all it can get, that's dynamic memory allocation, else, why would you have such a big amount of RAM? [14:53] Mamarok: I am looking in the System Settings, it's not there, don't know if I'm missing something [14:53] dori: did you check the mouse settings? [14:53] the option is called keyboard and mouse [14:53] nothing helped :S [14:54] Mamarok: that's where I am, I see mouse settings, but no keyboard settings [14:54] karan: well, I am still waiting for you to tell me which kde version you use :) [14:54] 4.3 [14:54] Mamarok: yes memory is not the problem, but the CPU ussage seems big for almost nothing. But I could not find Kwin in top's list [14:54] oh, sorry, didn't see that [14:54] Mamarok: I see Mouse, Joystick, Standard Keyboard Shortcuts, and Global Keyboard Shortcuts. What do you have? [14:55] o sorry [14:55] im using kde [14:55] dori: did you check all the tabs? [14:55] Mamarok: tabs for what, it's not even there [14:55] karan: no problem, I will try to sort that out, moment [14:55] 4.2 i thinl [14:56] karan: which one then? do you have a basic installation or did you upgtrade whith the backports PPA source? [14:56] basic [14:57] i installed it with the live cd [14:57] dori: in the keyboard section, isn't ther a n option to specify the repeat action and such? [14:57] karan: ok, the you have KDE 4.2.2 [14:57] Mamarok: I don't have a keyboard section [14:57] karan: go to the menu, system settings -. [14:57] sorry, system settings -> Display [14:57] can you cahnge your display settings there? [14:58] k i did [14:58] now what? [14:58] dori: in system settings -> keyboard&mouse, the first section *is* the keaboard section [14:58] keyboard, sry [14:58] Mamarok: not for me, I guess something is messed up [14:58] karan: can you cahnge it there? [14:59] dori: it is the very first thing you see when you open keyboard & mouse [14:59] Mamarok: I'm telling you maybe it is by default, but I don't have it, the first thing is Mouse, as I listed them above [14:59] it deosn't give me the option to change it to 1204x.... [14:59] dori: which KDE version do you have? [15:00] but i go to the monitor display setting (on my monitor) the screen res is normal [15:00] :S [15:00] karan: and your display supports that, right? [15:00] yup [15:00] Mamarok: 4.2.2, what comes with 9.04 [15:00] it was working the last time i logged in [15:00] hm, maybe an upgrade could help, then, as you are using a very basic KDE 4.2.2 [15:01] karan: you might have to add the option manually, with xrandr [15:01] you should consider upgrading to KDE 4.3 [15:01] Mamarok: that's what comes with ubuntu [15:01] dori: then something is missing in your installation [15:01] dori: see my metion of KDE 4.3 above [15:02] it corrects a lot of bugs and adds a lot of new features [15:02] Mamarok: yeah I guess I'll have to, I sure hope 4.3 is better, I'm really missing 3.5.x [15:03] dori: it is *much* better [15:03] dori: but if you only have a basic install, make sure first that you have all the kde4 packages [15:03] Mamarok: I don't know how to check, I just installed kubuntu-desktop, felt that would include everything I needed [15:04] dori: installing the package kde-full should fix that [15:04] no, because the CD only has limited space, so there are a lot of packages that are not included [15:04] kubuntu-desktop only installs the default CD stuff [15:04] Mamarok: That package is not found by apt-get, what repository? [15:05] dori: hm, then it is only in the backports PPA I guess, let me check [15:05] hello room. new to kubuntu and i'm having trouble with the network manager plasmoid [15:06] Mamarok: what does PPA stand for? [15:06] yes, it is in the backports PPA, so upgrade, then add kde-full [15:06] Private Package Archive [15:06] i just want to set a static ip on the thing. i think i'm having problems with setting the proper netmask prefix. can someone help? [15:06] dori: for instructions, see the channel topic [15:06] i want to put 255.255.255.0 into it but it always comes back as 0 [15:07] temporarytao: that is a known problem, you should consider installing the network-manager and removing network-manager-kde [15:07] or upgrade to KDE 4.3 [15:08] mamarok, i'm using kubuntu 9.04. isn't that kde 4.3 already (fresh install) [15:09] no, Kubuntu 9.04 comes with KDE 4.2.2, as it was released in April (that's what the 04 stands for)and kde 4.3 was released only last Tuesday [15:10] temporarytao: but using the network-manager from Gnome solves the problem, the bug is in the network-manager-kde package [15:10] ok. how do i upgrade to that? does the update manager handle that or do i need to do something special? [15:10] temporarytao: the instructions are in the topic of this channel :) [15:10] Mamarok: ah, ok. will it look "in place" with the current kde? [15:11] in place? [15:11] KDE wireless does not seem to be working in jaunty ... I am getting a KWallet daemon window where I cannot create a new password file...It gives me a KWallet -2 error ....Cannot create a file [15:12] fits in with the theme. i'm setting this system up for my sister. i think kde is good for her as she is still a student and does not want to fiddle around with the system [15:12] temporarytao: well, your choice, but beleive me, KDE 4.3 is much better :) [15:13] I am not able to disable KWallet Manager before connecting to by wireless also === root is now known as Guest83706 [15:13] vickyiyer: you should not disable the wallet, this is a security feature [15:14] what is all this? [15:14] just edit the wallet by opening it and remove the passwords for the wirdeless manager [15:14] Guest83706: this is the support channel for Kubuntu, and you should not run your system as root [15:14] bllllllllllllllllla [15:14] Mamarok: anyways Kwallet is not getting disabled too....but I am getting a -2 error where I cannot create a new wallet file [15:15] Guest83706: behave! [15:15] is this for me? [15:16] Guest83706: please read the topic of the channel, this channel is for support only [15:16] i dont know nthng bout tis thng...i ws jst updating mah system...wots ol tis bout? [15:17] Mamarok: do you have any ideas what might be the reason of my freezing problem? I see that a lot of others need your help, but if you could help making my system useable, that would be really great. [15:17] Guest83706: please, either you have a support question or you keep quiet [15:17] o [15:17] Newbee_: try the free radeon driver instead of the fglrx, it is known to cause problems in Jaunty [15:18] vickyiyer: why do you want to creat a new wallet file? [15:18] i was download edubuntu from da synaptic package manager...n i quit in da middle of it...nw its half undone...can ne1 tell mee wot to do nw? [15:18] Mamarok: the fglrx? I just knew from intel and general xorg 1.6 failure. ok, so I'll have the test after finishing my actual tasks [15:19] Guest83706: you are using Gnome I guess? [15:19] ya [15:19] then you should ask in #ubuntu [15:19] how do i do that? [15:20] Newbee_: well, it's not an Xorg failure, it is the ATI proprietary driver that causes problems, they have removed support for some cards [15:20] Mamarok: when I try to connect to the wireless detected by the network management.... since the wireless is password protected it throws a KWallet daemon window asking me to enter passwords ....I am not able to create a new Kwallet file there and hence the wirless is failing [15:20] Guest83706: just type /join #ubuntu in your client [15:20] anybody who knows how to enable the virtual desktop switch plasma thing which is shown in the release note video? [15:20] vickyiyer: the wallet is opened only once at KDE staet, then it only asks you if you want to use the wallet for other passwords [15:20] got it..thnx dude [15:20] start [15:21] Mamarok: year, but I thougt that mine (as part of the HD2000 Series) was not besides them so I didn't have the fear that this'll affect me. [15:21] Mamarok: looks like I don't ve one at startup and that I am not able to create one too [15:21] well, I lost trace of some people who had question now, moment [15:22] vickyiyer: then you should delete the existing wallet and restart KDE, just login and logout [15:22] the wallet is located in ~/.kde/share/config/kwalletrc I think, let me check [15:24] jnjn [15:24] vickyiyer: ok, there are two files in ~/.kde/share/config/, and there is also ~/.kde/share/apps/kwallet/ to delete [15:24] on restart KDE should make a new one [15:25] My Amarok is all screwy now.. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling it.. but I guess there is some configuration file that I need reset back to default.. anyone know where that is? [15:25] Brhad56: which Amarok version are you talking about? [15:25] 这是什么阿 [15:25] !jp | toshiba [15:25] toshiba: 日本語の場合は #ubuntu-jp または #kubuntu-jp を参照して下さい [15:26] 还有日语 [15:26] ?? [15:26] Mamarok: let me give it a try [15:26] !cn | toshiba [15:26] toshiba: For Ubuntu help in Chinese 您可以访问中文频道: #ubuntu-cn 或者 #ubuntu-tw 或者 #ubuntu-hk [15:26] 2.0.2 [15:26] does that help? [15:26] Brhad56: you should activate the jaunty-backports repository and install the latest Amarok 2.1.1, 2.0.2 is very old [15:28] Mamarok: have any instructions on how to do that handy? [15:28] Brhad56: which package manager do you use? [15:28] Adept [15:29] Brhad56: then edit the sources in Adept and activate the jaunty-backports repository, then update [15:29] you should see Amarok then [15:29] with the new version [15:30] Brhad56: and there is a mysql version change between 2.0.2 and 2.1.1, you need to rescan your collection, backup and remove ~/.kde/share/apps/amarok/mysqle/ before that [15:31] I'm stil trying to figure out how to add jaunty-backports.. [15:31] * Mamarok needs a break, later [15:31] Brhad56: if you need more help with Amarok, ask in #amarok when I am away [15:32] k [15:32] Brhad56: when you open the sources, there should be an option to activate the unsupported repositories [15:32] I can't check here, I have no adept installed [15:33] right-o.. unsupported updates is generally a bad idea [15:33] Brhad56: in that case it is a good idea, and in #amarok we give support for it [15:34] Brhad56: because 2.0.2 is very old and lacks a lot of features [15:34] More than just Amarok updates will be applied though [15:34] Brhad56: and you only install the amarok packages, then deactivate the backports again [15:35] good point [15:35] Brhad56: you will have to choose manually what you want [15:35] Mamarok: trying [15:35] it will come with 2 or 3 dependencies, that's it [15:35] Mamarok: I deleted the wallet file and I am now able to create a new wallet ..Need to check [15:36] vickyiyer: but you need to log out and log into KDE again before doing so, I guess [15:36] Mamarok: hm.. 2.0.2 is stil the only option available [15:37] Brhad56: have you updated the package list? [15:37] I checked the unsupported check box [15:37] then you need to update the package list [15:37] then it will show up [15:38] update, not upgrade :) [15:38] while i install adobe flash player; firefox and plugin service freezed; do i have to kill them? [15:38] cemunal: you need to restart firefox for sure, you should not install flash on a running firefox [15:38] Mamarok: gonna try apt-get.. cause adept isn't seeing [15:39] Brhad56: sudo apt-get install amarok [15:40] Brhad56: does it work now? [15:40] Mamarok: still installs 2.0.2 [15:40] Don't thikn backports is being usd [15:41] Brhad56: that is strange, can you please paste your /etc/apt/sources.list in http://paste.ubuntu.com? [15:42] Mamarok: http://paste.ubuntu.com:80/249843/ [15:43] Brhad56: the problem is that you have intrepid backports enabled, not jaunty [15:43] something is wrong with your adept [15:43] Brhad56: moment, I will give you the correct sources.list back [15:44] Brhad56: you *do* have Kubuntu 9.04 installed, right? [15:45] because there is a big mix of jaunty and intrepid in that sources.list [15:45] Mamarok: not sure what version I have.. i think 9.4 [15:47] I think so, too, but there were old stuff from the previous version inside [15:48] Brhad56: here it is: http://pastebin.com/m5a384260 [15:48] you need to copy this in kate, save it as 'sources.list' in your home folder, then copy it over to /etc/apt/ with sudo cp sources.list /etc/apt/. [15:50] k [15:50] Brhad56: then sudo apt-get update [15:51] then sudo apt-get install amarok [15:51] Mamarok: its working thanks [15:51] vickyiyer: great :) [15:51] Mamarok: I'll keep this in mind [15:51] Im going to make a large partition to save most of my media files on. The plan is to use this partition in both linux and windows [15:51] vickyiyer: yep, can be helpfull sometimes [15:51] Mamarock: gave me an error when doing apt-get update [15:51] whould i use fat or NTFS ? [15:51] W: GPG error: http://ppa.launchpad.net jaunty Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 620396F19C0042C8 [15:51] W: You may want to run apt-get update to correct these problems [15:51] Brhad56: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [15:52] epqr: use ntfs, it is the better option of both [15:52] Ok thanks [15:52] Brhad56: because you have a PPA in there but you don't seem to use, its the jre-phoenix one? [15:53] Also is there a good partition manager/creator for kde ? [15:53] do you still need that? Else you can just erase it from the sources-list you have in your home folder, and copy the new one over the same way [15:53] epqr: qtparted for example [15:53] Mamarok: it was something moblock wanted me to put in thre.. assume its still used. [15:53] !partition | epqr [15:53] epqr: For help with partitioning a new install see: https://help.ubuntu.com/8.04/switching/installing-partitioning.html - For partitioning programs see !GParted, !QtParted (!Kubuntu 8.10 and lower) or !PartitionManager (!Kubuntu 9.04 and up) - Other partitioning topics include !fstab !home and !swap [15:54] anyway, Amarok 2.2 installed [15:54] Brhad56: if you don't have the gpg key it's not used anyway :) [15:54] Mamarok: it showed a spash screen, followed by fatal error when loading it [15:54] splash [15:54] Brhad56: you can now edit your sources.list and just put a # in front of the two jaunty-backports lines, so those are disabled [15:55] Brhad56: yep, because you have still old config files lying around [15:55] Brhad56: you need to erase the following: [15:55] ok ok [15:56] ~/.kde/share/config/amarok* and backup the ~/.kde/share/apps/amarok/ folder, then erase it [15:57] one more thing [15:57] i feel like my mouse scrolls too fast [15:57] can you put the wheel scroll to under 1 lines ? === tyohuone is now known as jeppe662 [15:58] epqr: in system settings -> keaboard& mouse, edit the mouse settings [15:58] ok, now I'm off, later, folks [15:58] hmm [15:58] still has same error has before .."too many errors in playlist" [15:59] Brhad56: because you don't hace the codecs installed, sudo apt-get install libxine1-ffmpeg [15:59] have* [15:59] Brhad56: all other questions to #amarok, please, I'm off :) [16:00] Hi! When closing firefox, the firefox process still continues in the background, resulting in a "Firefox is already running, but is not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing Firefox process, or restart your system." when I try to open firefox the next time. I can solve that with a "killall firefox", but can I prevent this warning and make firefox shutdown properly when I close it? [16:01] hi homy :) [16:01] hi, i wanted to install libqt4-dev but i get this: The following packages have unmet dependencies: libqt4-dev: Depends: libglu1-xorg-dev but it is not going to be installed. What can i do so solve this? [16:02] I had that problem the other day, it was not actually a problem with firefox but much more a problem with gtk-qt-engine [16:02] kaddi_: yes, I think I'm using this gtk-qt-engine, because firefox looks like oxygen. [16:03] the solution was to go into system settings ->appaerance and under gtk styles and fonts and select "use another style" instead of the kde style [16:04] homy the problem is that the bug is a won't fix. Developpers stopped fixing that package and will replace it in future releases, so you either need to live with that problem or use the workaround [16:05] kaddi_: uhm .. I selected Qt4 as "Use another style:" and it doesn't work - the problem still persists? [16:06] did you start FF after selecting the style? [16:06] yes. [16:07] qtparted is suppose to be in the default ubuntu repos right ? [16:07] or the repos that comes with kubuntu [16:07] kaddi_: if selecting another style other than "Qt 4" it works. [16:07] epqr: ther is üpartition manager now, part of the system settings -> advanced tab [16:07] homy: there is a oxygen theme addon for firefox.........have a look at the site [16:07] you will have to start those with kdesudo systemsettings though [16:08] kaddi_: If I select QtCurve (which looks similiar to the default kde style), it works. So I'll use that. Thanks a lot! [16:09] glad I could help :) [16:09] did you see shadeslayer's comment about using the oxygen-theme for FF? [16:09] Mamarok where? i cant find it [16:09] kaddi_: uhm, well, there already are the oxygen icons, so... [16:10] epqr: in the advanced tab, in the System section [16:10] ok, I just thought if you want something that looks more like oxygen you might take a look. :) [16:10] * shadeslayer needs oxygen :P [16:11] Mamarok: ping [16:12] mamarok: still not seeing it. Im in the advanced tab. I tried serch for partition. I don't see a system "group"..? [16:12] shadeslayer: please stop pinging me all the time, I need a break now, just ask, there certainly will be somebody who can help [16:12] epqr: inst the partitionmanager package then [16:12] * kaddi_ is currently testing the memoryleak in update-notifier-kde... it is no consuming an impressive 600Mb of memory :o [16:12] Mamarok: sorry...

[17:04] when I try to run wicd off the menu it acts like its gonna run then shuts down [17:05] maybe it's the daemon missing: try running sudo wicd && wicd-client in a shell [17:06] ooh the light for my wifi card came on === goyo is now known as Guest37116 [17:10] when I try to connect to my WPA protected network it says "The Netwok requires encryption to be enabled" can't find where to enable that at [17:10] oh nevermind found it [17:17] thanks BluesKaj, wifi is up and working [17:21] Hi zusammen [17:22] Serraphyn, np, just had to poiny you in the right direction :) [17:22] hello, i am new with kubuntu (jaunty). and i wonder how can i get surround sounds on it and is it possible to upmix mp3 audio into 5.1 channel on amarok (v2.1) ? thanks [17:25] hi, I installed kde 4.3, now kde doesn't start anymore :) what do I do? [17:25] something went wrong I guess :) [17:25] sebbar you could you this dpkg --configure -a [17:26] pescado: will do, tnx [17:26] u r welcome [17:27] does any body know how to reposition the shortcut of the home on desktop [17:27] i closed it by mistake [17:27] babyshambles, I think your question might best answered in #amarok [17:31] BluesKaj : okay [17:31] pescado, right click on the panel or cashew , choose panel options/add widgets , choose folder view [17:32] can I start a kde session from fluxbox or do I have to reboot? [17:33] sebbar : can start [17:33] I've had this issue for quite some time now. I can surf some pages with zero delay and sometimes I surf the same pages and my desktop's Internet connection dies. Nothing seems to be solving this issue. I am using an Abit VT7 motherboard's onboard NIC. [17:33] It's also happened while downloading upgrades [17:33] ubuntu_: how do I do it? [17:44] draik : try using other eth0 [17:45] is there any reason to not uninstall compiz if I ain't using it? does kde depend on it in any way? [17:45] ubuntu_: how? [17:46] draik : hve u try install other NIC? [17:48] kaddi : not at all === jemand is now known as Guest41771 [17:50] ubuntu_: nope [17:50] draik :try get other NIC and test it .. [17:51] mybe prblm in ur hrdware [17:51] draik : or why don't u try on livecd 1st [17:52] ubuntu_: I've had this issue since 8.10 [17:53] It's been a while, but IIRC, I think the LiveCD did the same thing [17:56] draik : u running on ubuntu 9.04? [17:56] ubuntu_: Yes [17:58] draik :try to use other NIC [17:59] ubuntu_: ok [18:00] draik : might be ur onboard NIC gt prblem :P [18:00] draik: if lspci lists the NIC it chould be fine [18:02] gtg [18:02] see ya [18:02] shadeslayer: lspci lists this NIC (currently used for this connection) [18:03] shadeslayer: Here is the result from lspci: 00:12.0 Ethernet controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. VT6102 [Rhine-II] (rev 78) [18:04] draik: akik it should work properly unless some wire [18:04] shadeslayer: I've gone through so many CAT5 [18:04] draik: does it work on another OS ? [18:04] shadeslayer: Works fine under XP [18:06] I've also had issues with USB. I can only see my external 500GB for a bit before my desktop suddenly gets glaucoma [18:08] draik: hmm [18:08] draik: dhcp? [18:08] Yes [18:10] draik: so basically the connection is not working? [18:10] i accidentilly replaced the icon for sytemsettings with the icon from gv, how can I get the normal symbol back? it is not listed in the list of symbols [18:11] shadeslayer: It will work when it wants to. For now, it is working. I'm actually surprised it has been working for this long. Sometimes it won't load up Google (my homepage) when I open firefox first thing after the desktop is done starting up [18:12] draik: as far as i remember there was a command to obtain DHCP addresses [18:13] shadeslayer: It's not that I can't get an IP. I can get an IP. The IP stays even after the Internet ability leaves my desktop. [18:13] draik: when the connection does not work [18:14] draik: try sudo dhclient [18:14] I can try to force it now with browsing random sites. [18:14] The only fix I have now is to restart the computer [18:15] draik: try the dhclient...itll renew the address [18:17] shadeslayer: OK. Let me go do some random surfing. [18:17] draik: the problem must be the script...since the connection works fine on XP and theres is nor h/w problem [18:29] i installed kubuntu on my lenovo laptop. i was connect to the internet fine. i powered down. i just turned it back on and i can't connect to the internet anymore. "devices recently plugged in" is empty [18:32] basdlf: you may have firmware missing for your card [18:33] have you got wifi connection? [18:34] printer problem: I set up a network printer in Jaunty.

[19:08] does it seem to be getting hot during the process? [19:08] no [19:08] bios says 65°C [19:08] old amd 2800+, so its kinda ok [19:08] #eglug [19:11] sudden shut-down has to be one of a small set of things (i'd guess): heat, kernel-panic, bizarre init corruption... ?? [19:12] and in that case, my suspicions would first turn to hardware problems [19:12] thought of this too, yes [19:13] cpu doesnt overheat, hdds are not old, in live mode is everything perfect [19:14] even the ata controller works just fine [19:14] "live mode" would make little use of hard-drive/controller ...yes?

[20:12] quick question, can kubuntu read an hfs+ partition on an external drive? [20:12] l3x1c0n: i'm certainly no WEP expert (having used only WPA and i'm still no expert there), but i suspect you need to see your WEP key set in that file somewhere [20:13] the problem is i always worked with freebsd [20:13] l3x1c0n: whats the matter? [20:13] l3x1c0n: i don't see that as a "problem" per-se ;) [20:13] everytime i try to connect to the AP he keeps asking for the wepkey [20:14] i know the wlan0 driver is working because i finds the network [20:20] in freebsd i used wpa_supplicant.conf file [20:23] which is the best IM [20:23] kopete :D [20:23] but that is only a personal opinion [20:23] there is no such thing as the "best" program, different persons will prefer different programs for different reasons [20:24] kaddi_: i find kopete heavy on resources [20:24] pidgin is kinda better [20:24] but still i want something better [20:24] that's what I meant when I said "there is no best program" ;) [20:25] pidgin is good [20:26] oh could i disable the message notifier in kopete?
