| mrcognitive_ | sevis , when you have the chance before leaving . i would like to ask one last question , please ? | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| alid | Sevis: It doesn't have any configs with respect to volume for me. | 00:00 |
| Sevis | Mrcognitive_: I may not be going for another hour or two - feel free to ask whenever :) | 00:01 |
| mrcognitive_ | sweet ! | 00:01 |
| Sevis | Alid: Scroll down ;) | 00:01 |
| Sevis | Alid: Hmm... Dunno, actually. Let me see a little more. | 00:02 |
| mrcognitive_ | i think this question maybe very simple . i have currently found wireshark in my programs and added it . i think i am using a wifi considering i am connected to linksys and all .when i try to do a capture of packets it asks for a specific capture comand but when i go to the capture comands there are no options . | 00:03 |
| alid | Sevis: Aha! I found it in in System Settings > Keyboard and Mouse > Global Keyboard Shortcuts. | 00:03 |
| Sevis | Alid: Aha, hopes that fixes it :) | 00:04 |
| Sevis | Mrcognitive: I've never used wireshark, nor ever tried to capture packets. | 00:04 |
| alid | Sevis: Yeah, exactly! I changed the shortcuts to Master, and it fixed all the problems! Thank you very much! :-* | 00:05 |
| mrcognitive_ | same here , i am trying out all the programs to get a better feel for this new OS . just wanted to know what it could do | 00:05 |
| Sevis | Erm... It could capture packets. | 00:07 |
| Sevis | Basically, when you contact the internet, you send packets of information. That program seems to be used to get those packets and display them. | 00:08 |
| Sevis | There's quite many uses, but most are pretty malicious. | 00:09 |
| Sevis | Can't say much more, really - only ones I can come up with on the spot are bugtracking and password stealing. | 00:12 |
| mrcognitive_ | no , no , no . i am not trying to do anything that hasty | 00:12 |
| Sevis | Personally, unless I had a strong need for it, I wouldn't delve into all that stuff. | 00:13 |
| mrcognitive_ | alright , at the moment i have like no internet security . i have done research and have come across that ubuntu needs no firewalls do to the fact of how it operates | 00:14 |
| Sevis | No-no, that's very wrong. | 00:15 |
| oobe | yay kde 4.3 is out and it installed real easy with no bugs and no hitches | 00:15 |
| mrcognitive_ | really ? | 00:15 |
| Fanfare | mrcognitive_: linux is just like any other OS . it needs a human that thinks about security... | 00:15 |
| Sevis | Ubuntu needs no anti-virus, due to the lack of risk of infection. | 00:16 |
| Sevis | However, staying without a firewall may not be a great idea. Are you behind a router? | 00:16 |
| mrcognitive_ | not on this computer , i use it for school and ect | 00:16 |
| Sevis | A router generally has a built-in firewall. | 00:17 |
| humha | Ola moçada hello everyon | 00:17 |
| Sevis | Sorry, no, that's sorta wrong - but, in any case, a router will make a firewall (mostly) unnecessary. | 00:18 |
| mrcognitive_ | well , ubuntu has firestarter i know but is it any good . and how come some tech dude told me having a firewall with this system was pointless ? | 00:18 |
| Sevis | Hullo, Humha | 00:19 |
| Sevis | Mrcognitive_, there are some risks of absolutely no firewall. Less than with a Windows machine, but in the end, ddos is ddos. | 00:19 |
| mrcognitive_ | sevis , you how windows has certain commands such as ipconfig ...ect...ect why do they not work in ubuntu ? | 00:20 |
| === mike is now known as pikohn | ||
| Sevis | Mrcognitive_, because Ubuntu is a principally different system. | 00:21 |
| mrcognitive_ | i am trying access my list of drives but i can not figure out how to do so | 00:21 |
| Sevis | Errr... List of drives. Very good question. | 00:21 |
| Sevis | One second, checking if I remember correctly. | 00:21 |
| humha | Algum usuario no Portugues, | 00:21 |
| Fanfare | mrcognitive_: its ifconfig in linux | 00:21 |
| Sevis | mrcognitive_: 'sudo fdisk -l' | 00:22 |
| mrcognitive_ | thanks , fanfare | 00:22 |
| richie_ | Hi, can anyone tell me how to remove things from the Dolphin "Open With >" contextual menu? Thank you! | 00:22 |
| Sevis | And yes, it is indeed ifconfig, but it's not quite the same. | 00:22 |
| mrcognitive_ | thanks sevis | 00:22 |
| humha | Não estou conseguindo rodaar filmes em dvd. Que faço? | 00:24 |
| Sevis | Humha, I'm pretty sure this channel is English-only. Please ask questions in English. | 00:25 |
| Fanfare | richie_: u mean the list of apps to open a file with? | 00:25 |
| mrcognitive_ | sevis , is warcraft capable of running on , ubuntu ? | 00:26 |
| humha | Ok. Thank you. | 00:26 |
| Sevis | mrcognitive_: Which Warcraft? | 00:26 |
| mrcognitive_ | 3 and wow ? | 00:26 |
| richie_ | I do, fanfare, yeah. I installed some stuff through wine, and now it keeps wanting to open my Python scripts with notepad... No thanks! | 00:27 |
| Fanfare | mrcognitive_: i used to run WOW via wine months ago... | 00:27 |
| Sevis | One second. | 00:27 |
| richie_ | mrcognitive_: I still run WoW now - and get much better FPS on Ubuntu | 00:27 |
| Sevis | Warcraft 3: TFT is gold. | 00:27 |
| mrcognitive_ | <<<<< noob with computers , sevis . | 00:28 |
| Fanfare | richie_: hm, rightklick file select propertys, click on the tiny icon right to Typ: | 00:28 |
| Sevis | So is WoW. | 00:28 |
| Sevis | Mrcognitive_: You need to 'sudo apt-get install wine', then run winecfg, then you have a chance of getting it to run. | 00:29 |
| richie_ | Fanfare, I could kiss you. But I won't coz I smell. Thank you! | 00:29 |
| mrcognitive_ | i have wine already installed , thats why i asked you the question about imvu before | 00:29 |
| pascal_ | hey :) | 00:30 |
| Sevis | Never heard of IMVU, sorry. I think WoWWiki has a tutorial for installing WoW on Wine. | 00:30 |
| Sevis | Greets, Pascal_ | 00:30 |
| pascal_ | http://www.aircrack-ng.org/doku.php?id=compatibility_drivers < which of this cards would you recommend ? :) | 00:30 |
| pascal_ | usb or pcmcia :D | 00:31 |
| mrcognitive_ | sevis for wine , what resolution are you using ? | 00:32 |
| Sevis | mrcognitive_: I'm not running WoW under wine at the moment. At the moment, my old motherboard died, so I'm on my netbook. | 00:33 |
| Sevis | (and never ran under wine, always used XP for it) | 00:33 |
| mrcognitive_ | my problem with wine is that when i am using a game that is mainly windows based , it does not show the picture | 00:33 |
| Sevis | pascal_ looking | 00:33 |
| richie_ | mrcognitive_: IIRC the best way to install WoW is either from CD/Setup file (use wine setup.exe or whatever) or if you can access your windows partition, you can just use 'wine WoW.exe' or 'wine launcher.exe' i think it is | 00:33 |
| mrcognitive_ | see , i had xp home but i reset my cpu and lost it so i switched to ubuntu | 00:34 |
| richie_ | not a problem, mrcognitive_, you can install and patch exactly like you did on windows! if you put the CD in, it might even autorun the same as XP! | 00:35 |
| mrcognitive_ | you mean the factory disk ? | 00:35 |
| Sevis | mrcognitive_: Wouldn't advise confusing CPU and computer. What you reset was your hard drive :) | 00:36 |
| richie_ | OK, next question... I love Kate (the text editor, obviously) but she annoys me by opening every file in a new session! How do I make it so that files I double click appear in my already existing Kat session? | 00:36 |
| mrcognitive_ | yeah .... i tried to eliminate some un needed programs and bombed the whole computer clean | 00:37 |
| richie_ | Yeah, the factory disk - all 5 or one DVD | 00:37 |
| mrcognitive_ | dont have it ..... is it possible to download my home version without it ? | 00:38 |
| Sevis | Richie_: Kate -> Configure Kate -> Sessions -> Behaviour on Application Startup -> Load Last-used session? | 00:38 |
| mrcognitive_ | when i bought the cpu while back everything was as is | 00:38 |
| === Cueball_ is now known as Cueball | ||
| richie_ | Nope, still opens a new session :( | 00:39 |
| Sevis | O.o | 00:40 |
| Sevis | Sorry, Richie_, can't really help you then. | 00:40 |
| richie_ | No probs, Sevis, I'm trawling the documentation. I've just had an idea... | 00:41 |
| Sevis | Ah, wait a sec, just realised. | 00:41 |
| Sevis | Open with the -u option | 00:41 |
| Sevis | Right click -> Open with -> Other -> 'kate -u' -> remember settings. | 00:42 |
| richie_ | Nice one, thank you! We're halfway there now, though, since it opens in the same window, but pops up an error message "KDEInit could not launch /usr/bin/kate" | 00:45 |
| Sevis | Works fine for me from terminal O.o Test that? | 00:47 |
| richie_ | Yup, works fine from the terminal for me, too - it's just through Dolphin (Man, I hate dolphin. First moving stuff to trash takes a week and/or fails, now this!) | 00:50 |
| amason_ | richie_: moving to trash in 4.3 is quick | 00:50 |
| amason_ | richie_: also you don't have to use dolphin | 00:51 |
| amason_ | you can still use konq | 00:51 |
| Sevis | Richie_: Check the run in terminal thing? | 00:51 |
| richie_ | Sevis: I checked, works fine from there | 00:51 |
| Sevis | Rechie_: I mean in the Run As -> Other check the "run in terminal" option? | 00:52 |
| richie_ | amason_: How can I check what version KDE version I'm on? | 00:52 |
| Sevis | Richie: 'kde4-config -v' | 00:53 |
| richie_ | When I try run in terminal and go to open the second file, I get "KDEInit could not launch konsole"! 0.o indeed... | 00:55 |
| Sevis | O.o | 00:55 |
| Sevis | Erm.... | 00:55 |
| Sevis | Are you sure you've not got some very serious issues with KDEInit? | 00:55 |
| richie_ | I'm on KDE 4.2.2... can I apt-get an upgrade and see if that fixes all of my dolphin related issues? | 00:56 |
| richie_ | And I might have, how do you fix KDEInit? | 00:56 |
| Sevis | No idea. | 00:57 |
| amason_ | richie_: sounds like something has hosed on your system. | 00:58 |
| richie_ | Ha haa! No worries, Sevis, I appreciate your help anyway! | 00:58 |
| Sevis | Indeed. Richie_, you're very welcome, but I advise you do a very full checkup. | 00:58 |
| richie_ | Ok... let's play a little game. What would you do if you were me? | 00:58 |
| Sevis | Things with init failing, even just KDEInit, generally end bad. | 00:59 |
| richie_ | Bugger | 00:59 |
| Sevis | Erm. First of all, I'd probably reboot. | 00:59 |
| richie_ | See, even reboot doesn't work sometimes... | 00:59 |
| amason_ | Sevis: can just drop back run levels | 00:59 |
| Sevis | If that succeeds, you at least know you can reboot. | 00:59 |
| Sevis | If it doesn't, it generally yells the problem in your face. | 01:00 |
| richie_ | it hangs after I click the "Restart" button | 01:00 |
| Sevis | (and then fails to the end) | 01:00 |
| Sevis | Erm.... Richie_, I suggest you move away to a more terminal-based style. | 01:00 |
| Sevis | Does 'sudo reboot' work? | 01:00 |
| richie_ | Yeah, I've gotton very lazy with all the flashy stuff in KDE :) | 01:01 |
| richie_ | I'll try a sudo reboot and report back in a little while | 01:01 |
| richie_ | Bye bye | 01:01 |
| _gtt_ | i usually used "sudo shutdown -r now" | 01:01 |
| Sevis | Have you got a second station to come online from? | 01:01 |
| Sevis | _gtt_, I'm a very lazy person ;) | 01:02 |
| _gtt_ | "sudo shutdown -P now" for power | 01:02 |
| richie_ | I have an XP laptop with no IRC... That can be fixed I suppose - will try that during the reboot | 01:02 |
| _gtt_ | i really love X11 forwarding... so I'd just use my windows box to open konversation. | 01:04 |
| Sevis | Hopefully, it'll all work... | 01:04 |
| Sevis | Hehe, _gtt_, we're talking about if his box dies. | 01:04 |
| iamherman | is it worth all the effort to get mIRC for Ubuntu? | 01:04 |
| === mike is now known as pikohn | ||
| Sevis | Iamherman: No... Probably not. | 01:05 |
| wangyuan | how can I reboot my GUI? | 01:05 |
| Sevis | Ctrl+Alt+backspace | 01:06 |
| Sevis | If that fails, first 'sudo dontzap -e' | 01:06 |
| Sevis | sorry, -d | 01:06 |
| iamherman | but I'm using Konversation (and I just deleted xChat) and neither is very good. ... for example, If I /list channels I can't cancel it so I'm forced to wait forever or close the program.. hoping mIRC is more user friendly | 01:07 |
| richie | OK, so... given that i just shutdown 3 times quicker that when I use KDE buttons, my KDEInit seems to be borked, and all the other weird stuff that keeps happening I have come to a conclusion | 01:08 |
| richie | KDE hates me and I should go back to blackbox | 01:09 |
| oem | richie i proof blackbox and i prefer fluxbox | 01:10 |
| Sevis | You can generally reinstall a linux system keeping it on :) I remember when I accidentally did 'sudo apt-get purge linux* -y'... | 01:10 |
| oem | but, is difficult put all as kde | 01:10 |
| Sevis | You could reinstall KDE. Can't really think of a more subtle way to fix this. Google first. | 01:10 |
| richie | Suppose I get a nice new version that way, yoo | 01:10 |
| amason_ | you can just remove the kde packages | 01:11 |
| oem | how is possible install kde 3 on kde 4 | 01:11 |
| oem | ?? | 01:11 |
| amason_ | oem: what do you mean kde3 on kde4 ? | 01:11 |
| Sevis | You need a special repositry. | 01:11 |
| iamherman | can someone ping me | 01:11 |
| Sevis | iamherman... Why? O.o | 01:11 |
| oem | i install intrepid, but i want put kde3 | 01:11 |
| Sevis | You're automatically pinging the IRC server. | 01:12 |
| Sevis | OEM, there's a repositry set up somewhere. | 01:12 |
| oem | well, i seek it, thanks | 01:12 |
| richie | sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop --reinstall | 01:15 |
| richie | anyone want to recommend i don't do that? | 01:15 |
| Sevis | Erm. | 01:16 |
| Sevis | I recommend you get out of X before you do that. | 01:16 |
| === oem is now known as travispastrana70 | ||
| richie_2 | that would be a good start... | 01:17 |
| Sevis | Oh, and personally, I'd halt kdm, too. | 01:17 |
| Sevis | that's 'sudo /etc/init.d/kdm stop' | 01:18 |
| richie_2 | OK, done and done | 01:19 |
| Sevis | Well... Go ahead? | 01:19 |
| richie_2 | Reading between the lines I can't help but sense you might think this is a silly idea... | 01:20 |
| Sevis | Not really. | 01:20 |
| Sevis | It's a brutal idea. | 01:21 |
| Sevis | But it's unlikely to kill (all of) your data, perhaps it'll reset your wallpaper and view settings, but not much more. | 01:21 |
| richie_2 | Meh, so be it. Is it going to wipe ~ | 01:22 |
| Sevis | No, shouldn't. | 01:22 |
| === ercan is now known as Lancelot | ||
| === travispastrana70 is now known as oem | ||
| richie_2 | Then I'll not cry | 01:22 |
| Sevis | Personally, I keep all my data on a separate disk, then use binds to get them into ~/ | 01:23 |
| richie_2 | binds? like ln -s? | 01:23 |
| Sevis | No, in fstab | 01:24 |
| richie_2 | Ah, ok | 01:24 |
| richie_2 | That's clever! | 01:25 |
| Sevis | Hehe, thanks. It's a little more transparent than links. | 01:26 |
| richie_2 | now, if i do this reinstall will i get the same version? or should i --purge remove then install? | 01:28 |
| oem | what's is the dsl navigator | 01:28 |
| Sevis | Errr... Could be a config error. | 01:29 |
| Sevis | If you don't midn losing your config, go ahead and purge. | 01:29 |
| Sevis | Oem - no idea, sorry. | 01:29 |
| richie_2 | Cool, lets see how this goes... | 01:29 |
| * Sevis gives a nervous chuckle. | 01:30 | |
| === mike is now known as Guest35892 | ||
| === Guest35892 is now known as pikohn | ||
| richie_2 | yeah, so i dont think it was kubuntu-desktop i should have purged; 49.2kB disk space freed | 01:32 |
| Sevis | Errr... One second. | 01:32 |
| richie_2 | kde-desktop | 01:33 |
| richie_2 | that's going next | 01:33 |
| richie_2 | this is fun | 01:33 |
| richie_2 | it's like spring cleaning | 01:33 |
| oem | kde3-desktop | 01:34 |
| Sevis | Erm, Richie_2, I know that purging one thing after another is good. | 01:34 |
| Sevis | No, Oem, kde3-desktop is obsolete | 01:34 |
| Sevis | But please don't do things like 'sudo apt-get purge kde* -y' | 01:34 |
| Sevis | Actually, that would pretty much clear off what's left of kde... | 01:34 |
| richie_2 | you do realise that's like saying please don't walk on the grass, or please don't think about a big pink elephant | 01:35 |
| richie_2 | Why not go for it? Worst case scenario, I wake up tomorrow wishing I had backed up more frequently (or ever) | 01:36 |
| pikohn | can someone tell me how to get xbmc to display in full screen when you have two monitors? | 01:36 |
| Sevis | How many physical hard drives do you have? | 01:36 |
| Sevis | pikohn - dunno, sorry. | 01:36 |
| pikohn | okay | 01:36 |
| richie_2 | 2 in this box, 3 laptops, one 180Gb portable... and a 30Gb MP3 player :) | 01:36 |
| Sevis | Throw everything except your system somewhere. | 01:37 |
| richie_2 | Huh? | 01:37 |
| richie_2 | Like, out of the window? | 01:37 |
| Sevis | Like... To a hard drive. | 01:38 |
| Sevis | Then disconnecting that (while the computer is off, of course). | 01:38 |
| Sevis | Generally, making sure that the only thing you have on the machine is the system itself. | 01:39 |
| kub1 | How do I quickly get all/most of the documentation files for KDE aps installed? | 01:40 |
| richie_2 | probably have enough space on the spare in here... if i can find it in terminal! | 01:40 |
| Sevis | man man | 01:40 |
| Novice | Accidently deleted system tray how do I get it back? | 01:42 |
| Sevis | Novice, sorry, I was sure you had fixed that. | 01:43 |
| Novice | nope | 01:43 |
| Watson516 | does anyone here use dual monitors with kubuntu? | 01:43 |
| Sevis | Have you done 'mkdir ~/Desktop/test' | 01:43 |
| Novice | Sevis: just took a break | 01:43 |
| Sevis | ? | 01:43 |
| Sevis | Heh, no problem, I'm willing to go on. | 01:44 |
| Sevis | Watson516 - yes, but it runs without a problem. | 01:44 |
| Watson516 | Sevis: ok, any ideas how I would go about extending mine instead of mirror? | 01:45 |
| Sevis | Watson516 - oh, wait, sorry, it doesn't run perfectly, just realised :\ Indeed, shows the same thing on both monitors? | 01:45 |
| Watson516 | Sevis: yea, it works just fine on Ubuntu but I can't seem to get it working on Kubuntu | 01:46 |
| Novice | Sevis: what exactly does that do? | 01:46 |
| Sevis | Watson516: Yep, I've been trying to fix that... No idea, sorry. | 01:46 |
| Sevis | Novice: That makes a file on your desktop called "test" | 01:47 |
| Sevis | folder* | 01:47 |
| Novice | Sevis: what does it test? | 01:47 |
| Sevis | That's just the name :) | 01:47 |
| Sevis | Does it show up on your desktop? | 01:49 |
| Novice | Sevis: how do i get to terminal again? | 01:49 |
| Sevis | ctrl+alt+f1 | 01:50 |
| Sevis | Ctrl+Alt+F7 gets you back to X. | 01:50 |
| * richie_2 is waving goodbye to lots of things... just waiting for "Removing girlfriend... Removing life..." | 01:50 | |
| richie_2 | GONE! | 01:50 |
| richie_2 | now, which package do I need to install? kde4? | 01:51 |
| Sevis | Errr... | 01:52 |
| Sevis | Ah! | 01:52 |
| Novice | Sevis: ok did that and it put test folder on desktop | 01:52 |
| Sevis | Richie_2 try kdebase | 01:53 |
| richie_2 | Note to self... autoremove after purge kde* was not a good thing. | 01:53 |
| Sevis | Ouch, Richie... Ouch. | 01:53 |
| Sevis | Novice... | 01:53 |
| richie_2 | yeah, lots of pretty things disappeared | 01:53 |
| Novice | Sevis: yes | 01:53 |
| Sevis | Let me check a few more settings, please. | 01:54 |
| Novice | Sevis: have test folder on desktop now | 01:54 |
| Novice | Sevis: kk | 01:54 |
| Sevis | Ah! Novice, I know! | 01:54 |
| Sevis | Desktop Settings -> Desktop Activity -> Type: Desktop | 01:55 |
| richie_2 | Still installed 4.2.2... boooo | 01:56 |
| Sevis | Then right-click and unlock widgets. | 01:56 |
| Sevis | Richie, of course O.o | 01:56 |
| Sevis | 4.2.2 is fine. | 01:56 |
| Sevis | Your KDEInit seemed to have been slowly dying. | 01:56 |
| Novice | Sevis: how do i get to desktop settings | 01:56 |
| richie_2 | Aren't we all | 01:56 |
| Sevis | Right-click, then, sorry, Appearance Settings. | 01:57 |
| Sevis | I'm perfectly fine. | 01:57 |
| Sevis | Just need to get more tea every time my cup runs out. | 01:57 |
| richie_2 | OK, so I tried startx, which gave me blackbox. startkde gave me "not installed, get kdebase-workspace-bin". I did, tried startkde again, and now? $DISPLAY is not set or cannot connect to the X server | 01:59 |
| richie_2 | sigh | 01:59 |
| Sevis | Did you turn KDM back on? | 01:59 |
| richie_2 | ah ha, 2 secs | 01:59 |
| richie_2 | kdm not installed. will just get it | 02:00 |
| Novice | Sevis: have something called appearence but not appearance settings? | 02:00 |
| Sevis | Novice - try that, what does it show? | 02:01 |
| richie_2 | KDM is back, aaaaand... | 02:01 |
| Sevis | I predict it won't work. | 02:01 |
| Novice | Sevis: nothing called desktop activity | 02:02 |
| richie_2 | you predict wrong! | 02:02 |
| richie_2 | Not only worked BUT... my awesome boston bruins wallpaper is still there! | 02:03 |
| Sevis | Oh? Sweet O.o | 02:03 |
| Sevis | Novice... Errr... | 02:03 |
| Sevis | Are you /sure/ there is nothing called appearance settings? | 02:04 |
| Sevis | No matter where you look? | 02:04 |
| Sevis | Should be second from the bottom. | 02:04 |
| Novice | Sevis: your loosing me you have the same system as me were are you coming up with theese unknown commands? | 02:05 |
| Sevis | These aren't commands... Just options in the drop-down menu. | 02:06 |
| Novice | Sevis: is no appearance settings | 02:06 |
| Sevis | I have kubuntu 9.04, KDE 4.2.2 | 02:06 |
| Novice | Sevis: there is system settings/appearance | 02:06 |
| Novice | Sevis: yes that exactly what i have | 02:06 |
| Sevis | You don't need to be in System Settings | 02:07 |
| Sevis | Just go to your desktop, please. | 02:07 |

| Novice | jp1: sound on the internet or system sounds not working? | 02:10 |
| trapa | hello i speack french | 02:10 |
| jp1 | system sounds not working. | 02:10 |
| trapa | some one speck french here? | 02:10 |
| jp1 | It is alsa problem I'm sure..I just can't get it fixed | 02:10 |

| ubottu | trapa: Ce canal est en anglais uniquement. Si vous avez besoin d'aide ou voulez discuter en francais, merci de rejoindre #ubuntu-fr | 02:10 |
| Sevis | Erm. Okay, 'killall plasma' isn't what I'm supposed to do. | 02:11 |
| trapa | thank you | 02:11 |
| Sevis | Novice: What happens when you press alt+F2? | 02:11 |
| Novice | jp1: do you hear kubuntu when system boots?> | 02:12 |
| Novice | Sevis: nothing | 02:12 |
| jp1 | I used to, now since I used the "fix" I found on google I get nothing. | 02:12 |
| jp1 | I did have limited sound, basically just the kubuntu sound, now there is nothing. | 02:13 |
| Sevis | Novice, care to repeat what options you have when you right-click again? | 02:14 |
| jp1 | I used an alsa_1 and alsa_2 scripts...those didn't work. So I installed alsa 1.0.19 from ppa repository | 02:15 |

| Sevis | Not a problem. | 02:26 |
| Sevis | Jp1, your problem, please? :) | 02:26 |
| jp1 | I can't get my sound driver working | 02:26 |
| Sevis | ALSA? | 02:27 |
| jp1 | Yes | 02:27 |
| DrScience | I am also waiting for help on my sound for Acer Aspire 5315 | 02:27 |
| jp1 | It had limited functionality until I used some guides from google. now I get nothing | 02:27 |
| Sevis | DrScience - Jp1 has been waiting for a while. I suggest you read up, though, it may work for both of you. | 02:27 |
| DrScience | ok...thanx | 02:28 |
| jp1 | I have installed version 1.0.19 | 02:29 |
| Sevis | Well, my experience with alsa is that it needs a tonne of packages, and then it suddenly works. | 02:29 |
| Sevis | This seems to be an automated test: 'wget -O alsa-info.sh http://alsa-project.org/alsa-info.sh && bash ./alsa-info.sh' | 02:30 |
| jp1 | I also added this to the end of alsa-base.conf | 02:30 |
| jp1 | options snd-hda-intel model=3stack | 02:30 |
| jp1 | running it now. | 02:31 |
| Sevis | Latest stable release is 1.0.20 | 02:31 |
| jp1 | http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=075548e5ccbdc8153f5316a2022256e49e49f7af | 02:31 |
| Sevis | jp1 - what does 'esd' return? | 02:32 |
| jp1 | I: caps.c: Limited capabilities successfully to CAP_SYS_NICE. | 02:32 |
| jp1 | I: caps.c: Dropping root privileges. | 02:32 |
| jp1 | I: caps.c: Limited capabilities successfully to CAP_SYS_NICE. | 02:32 |
| Sevis | Aha. | 02:32 |
| Sevis | Well. | 02:32 |
| Sevis | You have a soundcard installed, I can see that. | 02:32 |
| Sevis | However, it doesn't look like it's being recognised. | 02:33 |
| Sevis | This seems to be a long-fixed issue... | 02:34 |
| jp1 | It was recognizing it before..but sound wasn't working then either. I think it showed as a??286 | 02:34 |
| jp1 | or a??268 | 02:34 |
| Sevis | http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=4871189&postcount=30 | 02:34 |
| Sevis | Errr... You had some sound? | 02:34 |
| jp1 | it was just the kubuntu log in sound..nothing else worked..now however I have nothing. | 02:35 |
| Sevis | Even just that was quite a bit. | 02:35 |
| Sevis | I suggest you rollback, then test what exactly fails. | 02:35 |
| Sevis | As far as I remember, the log in sound is a .wav | 02:35 |
| jp1 | How can I rollback? | 02:36 |
| jp1 | I used an alsa script to update. | 02:36 |
| Sevis | It may very well be you had codec and pulseaudio problems, and you were simply fixing the wrong thing. | 02:36 |
| Sevis | Hm... One second. | 02:36 |
| Sevis | A simple purge of alsa, and then a reinstall could do the trick. | 02:37 |
| Sevis | 'sudo apt-get purge alsa && sudo apt-get install alsa' | 02:37 |
| Sevis | Not quite certain, though. | 02:37 |
| Sevis | Be right back... | 02:37 |
| jp1 | ok, I'm purging it now. | 02:38 |
| Sevis | Okay, back, please tell me the result once it's done. | 02:41 |
| jp1 | It has finished and I also followed the directions from the link you posted. So I have added the patched drivers and the line in alsa-base.conf | 02:42 |
| jp1 | No change as of yet..not sure if I need a reboot or something though. | 02:43 |
| Sevis | (just a note - I'm eating dinner as we talk, so may be slow to answer) | 02:43 |
| Sevis | Yeah, go ahead and reboot, please. | 02:43 |
| jp1 | ok, thanks. I'll be right back. | 02:43 |
| jp1 | Hello again. | 02:46 |
| Sevis | Greetings | 02:46 |
| Sevis | Working any better now? | 02:47 |
| jp1 | It still isn't working. It looks the same. | 02:47 |
| jp1 | HDA Intel is gray | 02:47 |
| jp1 | Pulseaudio shows up, but no sound when I test. | 02:47 |
| Sevis | Er... Please try without that extra instruction I posted. | 02:47 |
| Sevis | Seeing as it's pretty old, it could very well be included by default. | 02:47 |
| jp1 | so just purge and reinstall? | 02:48 |
| jp1 | ALC 268 Analog is the card info also.. | 02:48 |
| Sevis | Yeah. Sorry for not mentioning to not do that instruction last time. | 02:48 |
| Sevis | It's pretty clearly a config problem, I would say, so I'm hoping it'll autodetect. | 02:49 |
| jp1 | It is only purging alsa-base...is that OK? | 02:49 |
| Sevis | Err... Probably? | 02:49 |
| jp1 | Ok, should I reboot again? | 02:50 |
| Sevis | Is a good idea, yes. | 02:50 |
| jp1 | BRB | 02:51 |
| nositelicense | if you are to reboot systray will ... | 02:51 |
| nositelicense | bah! | 02:52 |
| Sevis | Hm? You mean that just restarting X would be enough? | 02:52 |
| Sevis | Perhaps, likely enough. | 02:52 |
| nositelicense | dunno I did not hear anything other than restart | 02:52 |
| Sevis | Alsa config issues. | 02:53 |
| nositelicense | should not require a restart | 02:53 |
| jp1 | Ok, it still seems to be the same. | 02:54 |
| Sevis | Ehm. O.o | 02:54 |
| jp1 | It keeps asking to remove HDA Intel on reboot. | 02:54 |
| nositelicense | ha | 02:54 |
| Sevis | I'm going to go keep reading up on it. I don't quite see what the problem could be, if it autodetected on first install. | 02:54 |
| Sevis | Quick summary of the situation - Jp1 installed Kubuntu, sound worked minimally, he did something to alsa, it stopped working completely. | 02:55 |
| jp1 | The HDA Intel was functional after first install..since I ran the alsa scripts though it has been non functional. | 02:55 |
| jp1 | I used a script that was meant to update to the latest version I believe. | 02:56 |
| nositelicense | use sysnaptic to completely remove reboot reinstall :/ | 02:56 |
| jp1 | scripts found here http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=4298894&postcount=24 | 02:56 |
| Sevis | Yeah, maybe an extra reboot between purging and installing would do it... Hm | 02:57 |
| * nositelicense shugs | 02:58 | |
| jp1 | trying to find all packages to remove. | 02:59 |
| Sevis | 'sudo apt-get purge alsa*' | 02:59 |
| Sevis | Use at very much your own risk. | 02:59 |
| jp1 | E: Couldn't find package alsa-info.sh | 03:00 |
| Sevis | O.o | 03:01 |
| Sevis | Ah! | 03:01 |
| Sevis | Of course. | 03:01 |
| Sevis | rm ./alsa-info.sh first | 03:01 |
| jp1 | removing 415mb...hopefully this will help. | 03:02 |
| jp1 | I think it might be removing kde though, now that I look at it. | 03:02 |
| nositelicense | it should | 03:02 |
| Sevis | Erm. | 03:03 |
| Sevis | No... | 03:03 |
| Sevis | Hm, | 03:03 |
| * Sevis reminds himself that -s is to be used. | 03:03 | |
| jp1 | too late...can I fix it? | 03:03 |
| jp1 | sudo apt-get install kde...475mb | 03:04 |
| Sevis | "Note, selecting kernel-internals-guide for regex 'alsa*'" | 03:04 |
| jp1 | more than got removed..lol | 03:04 |

| brandon_ | cannot get firefox to work on jaunty any advice? | 03:08 |
| jp1 | I suppose worse case is I have to reinstall. | 03:08 |
| Sevis | JP1, sorry, but that seems to be quite likely. It can often be easier than fixing up a mess. | 03:09 |
| jp1 | Ok, well if this doesn't work I will just reinstall. Thanks for the help. | 03:09 |
| jp1 | I might be back to try and get it from the limited functionality I get on install to actually working properly though. | 03:10 |
| Sevis | Did you install kubuntu-restricted-extras? | 03:10 |
| jp1 | I did apt-get install kde | 03:11 |
| GSF1200S | using a laptop as a router/tether to a desktop is such a pain | 03:11 |
| jp1 | I'm guessing I didn't do restricted-extras on initial install if that is what you mean. | 03:11 |
| GSF1200S | is there any easy tools for sharing a connection? because shorewall/iptables/dnsmasq/ipmasq is kicking my *** | 03:11 |
| Sevis | That's the problem, then, Jp1 - without that, you can't play MP3s. | 03:12 |

| jp1 | rearranging how? | 05:44 |
| iloveyou | jp1: I suspect it may be to do with kde trying to use one backend, games/video trying to use another, and the backends trying to compete over exclusive access to the sound card. But I'm not really sure. | 05:44 |

| Letharion | I installed kubuntu-desktop. I log out, get a kdm prompt instead of gdm, I log in, and I get back to kdm. Nothing that looks like an error in Xorg logs. I get back in by running startx from cli, gets me into gnome. Not sure how to proceed. | 08:13 |
| jeka_ | Mamarok Yes I know :) | 08:13 |
| Mamarok | ok :) | 08:14 |
| Mamarok | Letharion: did you install the kubuntu-desktop package? | 08:14 |
| Letharion | Yes | 08:14 |
| Mamarok | and did you use KDE previously on that computer? | 08:15 |
| Letharion | No | 08:15 |
| Mamarok | hm, try erasing ~/.kde/ and try again | 08:15 |
| Letharion | (Yes, but not with this install) | 08:15 |
| Letharion | try again as in "log in again", or "install again" | 08:15 |
| jeka_ | Mamarok ==> Я из Казахстана :) | 08:16 |
| Mamarok | Letharion: and running startx from cli will open Gnome because it is set to default | 08:16 |
| Mamarok | jeka_: English, please! I will not say it again! | 08:16 |
| jeka_ | Mamarok ==>I from Kazakhstan:) | 08:16 |
| Mamarok | jeka_: also, this is a support channel only, for discussions there is #kubuntu-offtopic | 08:16 |
| Letharion | Mamarok: I'm glad it does, or I'd be stuck without a GUI | 08:17 |
| Mamarok | Letharion: once you are in kdm, you need to change the session you want to start (one of the buttons at the bottom) | 08:17 |
| Letharion | To? | 08:18 |
| Mamarok | well, to KDE if you want KDE :) | 08:18 |
| Letharion | Oh, I would assume that it was, coming from kdm. I'll try in a minute. | 08:18 |
| jeka_ | Mamarok ==>I have understood already =) If the network there earns from ASDL - I from will write there, for now only Ubuntu. The modem at me "ZyXEL Prestige 600 series". | 08:20 |
| Mamarok | jeka_: was that a question? | 08:20 |
| Letharion | For the record, it worked :) Maybe it was just that I hadn't selected a session in the first place? | 08:21 |
| Mamarok | Letharion: exactly, as your default session was not set yet :) | 08:22 |
| Mamarok | or set to Gnome | 08:22 |
| Mamarok | Letharion: for KDE 4.3 see the topic | 08:22 |
| Mamarok | as kubuntu comes with 4.2.2 by default | 08:22 |
| Letharion | Doh. Might be nice of kdm to let me know that, instead of kicking me back to login with 0 information. | 08:23 |
| Mamarok | Letharion: indeed | 08:23 |
| jeka_ | Mamarok ==> It was my problem :( Ubuntu the network has defined, and I have simply created ADSL connection. In Kubuntu - the network is not defined. | 08:23 |
| Letharion | Mamarok: U use 4.3? I found 4.2.4 less bugged at my other computer (Not kubuntu) | 08:23 |
| Mamarok | Letharion: but you are the first to mention it here AFAIK | 08:23 |
| Mamarok | Letharion: yes, it has been released about a week ago and is really good! | 08:24 |
| Letharion | Oh well. | 08:24 |
| Letharion | Mamarok: I think it looks pretty, with the new plasma theme, but I started having graphic glitches. Might wait a month for a 4.3.1 :) | 08:24 |
| Mamarok | Letharion: did you already install it? If you only just installed the kubuntu-desktop you have 4.2.2 | 08:25 |
| Letharion | If I have a java-packaging question, which channel would be appropriate? | 08:26 |
| Mamarok | and 4.3 is far less bugged than 4.2.x | 08:26 |
| Letharion | Mamarok: I did on another (non-ubuntu) computer | 08:26 |
| jeka_ | Letharion ==> Yes in general the remarkable interface! "Vista" even nearby did not stand! | 08:26 |
| Letharion | jeka: Yeah; i like it :) | 08:26 |
| Mamarok | Letharion: I don't know, maybe #java? or is it a packaging problem in Ubuntu? | 08:26 |
| Mamarok | !motu | Letharion | 08:27 |
| ubottu | Letharion: motu is short for Masters of the Universe. The brave souls who maintain the packages in the Universe section of Ubuntu. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU | 08:27 |
| jeka_ | Letharion And I about that!:)) even the girl remains aside. (Joke):) | 08:28 |
| Mamarok | that would be the packaging introduction for Ubuntu (and its derivatives) | 08:28 |
| Letharion | Not so much a problem as a question. I have installed a certain package but still don't find the library that I expect to show up | 08:28 |
| Mamarok | guys, pleas, discussion goes to #kubuntu-offtopic, this is support only here | 08:28 |
| Mamarok | jeka_: I already told you previously | 08:28 |
| Mamarok | please* | 08:28 |
| Letharion | Mamarok: Thanks, I'll have a look | 08:29 |
| Mamarok | Letharion: did you check with aptitude search libraryname? | 08:29 |
| Letharion | Not until now that you asked me. No answer. in-casesensitivity option? | 08:30 |
| Mamarok | no | 08:30 |
| Mamarok | else google for the library, it should tell you where it is | 08:31 |
| Mamarok | what library is it? | 08:31 |
| Letharion | libmysql-java | 08:32 |
| jeka_ | Mamarok ==> I already have understood it also to you have explained, even named a problem in Kubuntu, instead of in Ubuntu. =) Has written on английски that in принцепи it is not difficult for me.)) I something to you disturb???? P.S: the novice user. | 08:32 |
| Mamarok | Letharion: try sudo apt-get install libmysql-java :) | 08:32 |
| Letharion | Mamarok: Yeah, I have installed it with synaptic, and apt-get agrees that it's installed, but the java-program I'm trying to run can't seem to find it. | 08:34 |
| Mamarok | jeka_: the problem is that it makes it difficult to distinguish support related lines from discussion, sometimes there is a lot going on here, so there is no room for discussion | 08:34 |
| Mamarok | Letharion: both installed with apt-get? | 08:34 |
| Mamarok | Letharion: could be a path problem | 08:34 |
| Letharion | Mamarok: No, one is my own :) | 08:34 |
| Mamarok | well, then check your PATH settings :) | 08:34 |
| Letharion | Mamarok: Could definitely be | 08:34 |
| rsync | hi, how I can enable kdm remote control? | 08:35 |
| Mamarok | rsync: I don't know, sorry | 08:35 |
| Mamarok | a remote control for KDM? | 08:36 |
| Mamarok | or accessing the desktop remotely? | 08:36 |
| Letharion | rsync: Elaborate on what you want to do. There's NX-server which allows graphic login through kdm | 08:36 |
| rsync | Mamarok: yes, if we're seeing login window we could choose another with ip-address. but, I seems it disabled on my host and I can't communicate with neighbor pc | 08:39 |
| Jack8899 | I Want to encrypt my System. I already tried the whole precedure on a virtual machine and ther alternate CD. But because I have two harddisks the cryptsetup at boot wants me to twice put in the password. Is there a way to only use one pw for both disks? | 08:40 |
| jeka_ | Here somebody on русски understands? I apologise in advance. | 08:40 |
| Mamarok | jeka_: you should ask in a russian speaking channel: | 08:41 |
| rsync | Letharion: ok, if it's allowed, it must be customized somewhere | 08:41 |
| Mamarok | !ru | jeka_ | 08:41 |
| ubottu | jeka_: Пожалуйста посетите #ubuntu-ru для получения помощи на русском языке / Pozhalujsta posetite #ubuntu-ru dlya polucheniya pomoshi na russkom yazyke | 08:41 |
| Mamarok | I don't understand what you mean, sorry | 08:41 |
| jeka_ | =( | 08:42 |
| Letharion | rsync: Not sure I get it, sorry | 08:42 |
| Letharion | rsync: Or rather, I'm quite sure I don't get it. | 08:42 |
| Letharion | Are my "other partitions" automounted somewhere? Or how can I otherwise list them? I tried fdisk -l, which didn't return anything. | 08:43 |
| rsync | Letharion: switch user-> start new session -> menu -> remote login put here the ip addres | 08:43 |
| Letharion1 | rsync: I had a "secure remote connection" option, but I'm not sure how it works. | 08:46 |
| Letharion1 | Except the obvious that remote login must be enabled on the remote side | 08:46 |
| rsync | Letharion1: where its? | 08:47 |
| Letharion | rsync: Well, I'd assume that you need the sshd running, other than that, I'm not sure. X is normally executed as root, which makes it quite sensitive to allow remote login to it. | 08:48 |
| matt2154 | Can anyone tell me where to find the "URW Bookman L" font file? It appears in OOo and Inkscape. | 08:51 |
| rsync | Letharion: no, it use xdmcp protocol so as to communicate | 08:51 |
| Letharion | So what you want is to run a X client on one machine, and connect to an X server on another? | 08:54 |
| Letharion | The only way I've done that is with an NX-server. | 08:54 |
| rsync | yes via kdm | 08:54 |
| raphink | there's at least 3 ways to do what you're trying to do | 08:56 |
| raphink | well more | 08:56 |
| raphink | XDMCP is one | 08:56 |
| raphink | not encrypted, very heavy on the network, but easy to use (just use remote login in KDM) | 08:56 |
| raphink | NX/nomachine is another one, much faster, encrypted through SSH (optionally), but harder to set up | 08:57 |
| raphink | you can also use ssh with the -X flag which exports the X session (provided the server conf allows it) | 08:57 |
| raphink | and then launch your programs in the console, and they will be exported localy | 08:57 |
| raphink | localy | 08:57 |
| raphink | locally | 08:57 |
| raphink | it's even slower than using XDMCP, but it's very easy to use, and it's secured through SSH | 08:57 |
| Letharion | How can I list all partitions on my computer? | 08:58 |
| raphink | Letharion: mount | 08:58 |
| raphink | Letharion: or df -h if you want usage info | 08:58 |
| rsync | but easy to use - yes | 08:58 |
| raphink | and then there's VNC | 08:58 |
| raphink | slower than NX, less secure, and not easier to configure ;) | 08:58 |
| rsync | I want to use it xdmcp, because I want touse it not too much | 08:58 |
| Letharion | raphink: I'm trying to find the device-name of an un-mounted part so I can mount it | 08:58 |
| raphink | Letharion: df | 08:59 |
| raphink | oooh | 08:59 |
| raphink | an un-mounted part sorry | 08:59 |
| raphink | Letharion: look for it in /etc/fstab | 08:59 |
| rsync | I know about any other vnc and so on, but want use it | 08:59 |
| rsync | where enable it? | 08:59 |
| raphink | you have to install a vnc server | 09:00 |
| Letharion | raphink: Not there either. How come I can't list with "fdisk -l" | 09:00 |
| raphink | but honestly, setting up NX is not harder and it's much better | 09:00 |
| raphink | Letharion: wait, what do you want exactly? | 09:00 |
| rsync | I want not istalling anymore | 09:01 |
| Letharion | raphink: I want a list of all harddrives, partitions, and preferably their filesystems, so I can mount a part from my other linux install and copy files- | 09:01 |
| rsync | because i want use it into my home net | 09:01 |
| raphink | Letharion: you can see a list of all partitions in /proc/partitions | 09:02 |
| raphink | cat /proc/partitions | 09:02 |
| raphink | Letharion: for fdisk -l, you need to be root | 09:02 |
| raphink | so | 09:02 |
| raphink | sudo fdisk -l | 09:02 |
| raphink | rsync: I don't understand | 09:02 |
| Letharion | raphink: Doh, ofc, it was that easy. sudo made it work as I wanted. | 09:02 |
| raphink | sudo make me a sandwich | 09:03 |
| rsync | [Xdmcp] | 09:04 |
| rsync | Enable=enable | 09:04 |
| rsync | but still not work | 09:05 |
| Letharion | I manually installed a package that wasn't found with apt. How do I add it to the path so I don't need to provide full path | 09:05 |

| richie | Hello. Anyone know how to restore KDE file associations to their defaults? I broke them :( | 11:12 |
| Mamarok | richie: how did you do that? | 11:13 |
| Mamarok | you can't have broken all of them | 11:13 |
| richie | 'Accidently' installed the windows version of Python through wine, and know anything that's a text file (.txt, .ini, .py, .html etc) thinks it's a Python file. It's playing havok with kwrite/kate/wine notepad | 11:15 |
| Mamarok | ok, system settins -> advanced tab -> file associations, then set to defaults | 11:15 |
| Mamarok | settings* even | 11:15 |
| richie | hmmm... defaults button is grayed out, even when I sudo systemsettings | 11:18 |
| Mamarok | richie: is the "Remove" button activated? | 11:19 |
| Mamarok | then click on that | 11:19 |
| richie | remove is grayed out too... very odd | 11:20 |
| Sevis | Same here. | 11:20 |
| richie | can only click add or help | 11:20 |
| Sevis | Except mine isn't broken... Let me see. | 11:20 |
| richie | and you're all the help i need | 11:21 |
| Sevis | System Settings -> Default Applications, correct? | 11:21 |
| homy | Hm. With me, the Defaults and Reset buttons in the File associatios are also greyed out. | 11:24 |
| richie | Sevis: Default Applications is the same | 11:25 |
| richie | I want my Defaults button now! | 11:25 |
| Sevis | So is Help, over here ^^ | 11:25 |
| richie | KDE hates me | 11:28 |
| richie | It's refusing to let me restore my file associations | 11:28 |
| Sevis | I'd suggest doing it by hand. | 11:29 |
| homy | richie: reinstall kubuntu! | 11:30 |
| homy | then they will be at their defaults. | 11:30 |
| homy | :) | 11:30 |
| richie | Did that last night, homy! And normally I'd agree with Sevis. But it's the principle of the thing, now. KDE is tempting me with buttons I can't use! I want to use them! | 11:30 |
| homy | No honestly, where are the file associations saved? That has to be a text file somewhere you can replace. | 11:31 |
| Sevis | Richie, I actually think you'd prefer not to press that Defaults button. | 11:31 |
| Sevis | If it completely resets associations, it may clear ALL your custom ones. | 11:31 |
| richie | Is that opening up a whole world of pain, Sevis? Do I even have custom ones?! Tell you what, see if we can find how to get that button activated, and I *might* not click it ;) | 11:32 |
| raphink | homy: in mimeapps.list | 11:33 |
| Sevis | Oh? Well... I have the feeling it may remove everything... | 11:33 |
| Sevis | Thanks, Raphink | 11:33 |
| raphink | iirc | 11:33 |
| raphink | as in ~/.local/share/applications/mimeapps.list does it | 11:33 |
| Sevis | ~/.local/share/applications/mimeapps.list | 11:33 |
| raphink | yep, exactly | 11:34 |
| homy | Ok, so if somebody having default file associations would be willing to share his ~/.local/share/applications/mimeapps.list, the problems seems to be solved-. | 11:34 |
| Sevis | There's no need for that. | 11:34 |
| homy | (Well, not the problem with the buttons greyed out...) | 11:34 |
| raphink | homy: if you want defaults, you'd have to remove this file | 11:34 |
| Sevis | It only has custom associations. | 11:34 |
| raphink | the system defaults are not stored there | 11:35 |
| richie | Why thank you, raphink! | 11:36 |
| raphink | funny | 11:36 |
| * richie is deleting ~/.local/share/applications/mimeapps.list | 11:36 | |
| raphink | I see homy ask a question and it's Sevis and richie that thank for the answer | 11:36 |
| raphink | I'm not sure who needed that in the first place ;) | 11:36 |
| homy | oh! Where are the default associations saved then? I can see loads of .desktop files in /usr/share/mime/, but they don't seem to contain any applications? | 11:39 |
| homy | raphink: ok, I'll thank you too, as it also solved my problem of reverting file associations to their defaults. | 11:39 |
| raphink | ah, good that it solved your issue | 11:40 |
| raphink | I don't know where the defaults are stored really | 11:40 |
| richie | Just cleaned out ~./local/share/mime and ~/.local/share/applications/mimeapps.list... and all my problems have gone! raphink, you're a genius. | 11:40 |
| Sevis | You deleted all the .desktop files in ~/.local/share/mime ? | 11:40 |
| raphink | no, that wouldn't be fair... I just happened to write a script some time ago that needed to recognize some mime that the system did not know, so I had to search that for a few hours | 11:41 |
| richie | Only the ones I knew were causing probelms, Sevis | 11:41 |
| Sevis | Ah, okay then, you worried me there :P | 11:41 |
| raphink | richie: I don't think there are defaults for the sytem actually | 11:43 |
| raphink | each program declares which mime types they support | 11:43 |
| raphink | in their .desktop | 11:43 |
| raphink | like | 11:43 |
| raphink | grep MimeType /usr/share/applications/kde4/gwenview.desktop | 11:43 |
| raphink | then KDE just takes them in whatever order | 11:43 |
| richie | cool - you live and learn! | 11:43 |
| raphink | unless you specified defaults in your ~/.local/share/mime | 11:43 |
| homy | whatever oder -> random? | 11:43 |
| raphink | homy: no idea, maybe alphabetical ;) | 11:44 |
| homy | s/oder/order/ | 11:44 |
| raphink | I don't think the KDE dev would have a random algorithm for that ;) | 11:44 |
| homy | maybe sorted by ascending inodes. | 11:44 |
| raphink | lol | 11:44 |
| raphink | when I open an image, I have | 11:45 |
| raphink | gwenview -> Opera -> Gimp -> Mozilla -> Firefox -> showFoto -> Arora -> Okular -> Minefield | 11:45 |
| raphink | there doesn't seem to be an obvious logic in the order | 11:45 |
| raphink | maybe order of installation... | 11:46 |
| raphink | I _think_ the system builds a mime.cache database when new programs are installed | 11:46 |
| homy | Uhm, I have GwenView Kolourpaint Gimp Okular Shiretoko | 11:46 |
| raphink | so we have the same order | 11:47 |
| raphink | for the programs we have in common that is | 11:47 |
| homy | how can I write something beginning with /? | 11:47 |
| homy | I get "Unknown command." :) | 11:48 |
| raphink | what are you trying to do ? | 11:48 |
| homy | write something beginning with / in irc | 11:49 |
| raphink | ah | 11:49 |
| raphink | put a space before it | 11:49 |
| homy | /usr/bin/update-mime-database, that is | 11:50 |
| === lie_ is now known as Elirips | ||
| raphink | well /usr/bin/update-mime-database.real is the real program that does it | 11:51 |
| raphink | update-mime-database is a dpkg hook | 11:51 |

| thisismyname | @ace shure there is a way | 13:43 |

| Caliostro | Hello, guys | 15:04 |
| Caliostro | I've a native bug with kubuntu :) | 15:05 |
| Caliostro | The point is that when plasma is trying to open some files (wallpapers, widgets, etc) on my local computer there's no files in browser. But dolphin has access to FS. Where could be the problem? | 15:08 |
| Caliostro | And when I'm opening plasma browser from "Desktop settings" it takes about two minutes before browser appears. | 15:10 |
| Caliostro | Any thoughts? | 15:11 |
| ajavid | hi | 15:14 |
| Caliostro | Hi, ajavid | 15:15 |
| ajavid | I installed from cd, and then aptitude full-upgrade | 15:15 |
| ajavid | however I do not have kde4.3 | 15:15 |
| ajavid | what must I do? | 15:15 |
| shadeslayer | ajavid: see the topic | 15:15 |
| ajavid | hmm, read topic for one | 15:15 |
| ajavid | shadeslayer, already there | 15:15 |
| shadeslayer | ajavid: ok then sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 15:15 |
| ajavid | which repository should I add, hang on | 15:15 |
| ajavid | fantastic | 15:16 |
| ajavid | I click link and it opens in kate | 15:16 |
| ajavid | lol | 15:16 |
| Caliostro | Hmm, I've KDE 4.3. It's strange :) | 15:16 |
| ajavid | is this a bug? (I just intalled kubuntu) | 15:16 |

| ajavid | i got it, thanks | 15:17 |
| ajavid | also | 15:17 |
| shadeslayer | ajavid: after adding that line,you need to sudo apt-get update;sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 15:17 |
| ajavid | what is the repo for ww32codecs and such? do you know off hand or do I have to go through 3 websites to find the url (medibuntu to wiki to blah) | 15:17 |
| ajavid | shadeslayer, got ya | 15:18 |
| shadeslayer | ajavid: install kubuntu-restricted-extras | 15:18 |
| Caliostro | I've 4.2 a few days ago and I didn't do upgrade ) | 15:18 |
| Caliostro | Does anyone has ideas how to solve my problem? | 15:18 |
| ajavid | argh, now ih ave to use gui's to update my key? | 15:19 |
| shadeslayer | Caliostro: do you want KDE 4.3? | 15:19 |
| Caliostro | (with plasma) | 15:19 |
| shadeslayer | ajavid: not necessary | 15:19 |
| Caliostro | The point is that when plasma is trying to open some files (wallpapers, widgets, etc) on my local computer there's no files in browser. But dolphin has access to FS. Where could be the problem? | 15:19 |
| Caliostro | shadeslayer, I already have KDE 4.3 but it works with bugs :) | 15:19 |

| ajavid | shadeslayer, thank you very much | 15:24 |
| ajavid | Caliostro, where is your nickname come from? | 15:24 |
| Caliostro | Oh, it's from dark places of my mind ;) | 15:25 |
| Caliostro | So, am I the one with such a big bug in kubuntu? | 15:26 |
| ajavid | For 32-bit systems the Server Edition is configured to use PAE which allows addressing up to 64GB of memory while the Desktop Edition is configured for 4GB. | 15:29 |
| ajavid | I need the server kernel it seems | 15:29 |
| ajavid | http://www.ubuntu.com/products/whatisubuntu/serveredition/features/kernel | 15:29 |
| ajavid | it seems the server kernel has more stuff than I want | 15:29 |
| ajavid | I'm not sure how do these things make a diff? | 15:29 |
| ajavid | the features on this page compared to the desktop edition | 15:29 |

| yovan | Hi everybody | 16:49 |
| yovan | i have a question : katapult no longer exists on kubuntu jaunty? | 16:50 |
| yovan | The 9.04 has no katapult??? Is there any program laucher like that in this last version | 16:51 |
| phh | krunner isn't enough for you ? | 16:51 |
| phh | it's less eye-candy, but way more usable | 16:51 |
| yovan | it has shortcuts...keybord shortcts | 16:52 |
| phh | what sort of shortcuts ? | 16:52 |
| yovan | for lauching an application | 16:52 |
| phh | yeah... as alt-f2 you mean ? | 16:52 |
| yovan | i haven't used it before | 16:53 |
| phh | -_- | 16:53 |
| yovan | so the alt F2 is krunner | 16:53 |
| phh | it has always been the default shortcut for krunner and its ancestors | 16:53 |
| oem | . | | 16:53 |
| yovan | lol | 16:53 |
| phh | I think even other DE uses the same shortcuts | 16:54 |
| yovan | thanks man i hoped to find something like katapult | 16:55 |
| phh | and it's even better. | 16:55 |
| yovan | caused you didn't have to completely know the whole apps name | 16:55 |
| phh | well you could have looked at default global shortcuts | 16:56 |
| kekeke | can someone help me out, i'm trying to install kubuntu and i'm getting these errors: http://paste.ubuntu.com/250892/ | 16:56 |
| kekeke | do i have to install those dependancies individually? | 16:56 |
| yovan | Thanks for your help phh | 16:56 |
| phh | kekeke: you're not running stable ubuntu, are you ? | 16:56 |
| kekeke | phh nope | 16:58 |
| kekeke | is that a problem? | 16:58 |
| phh | kekeke: well... the packages are marked as broken | 16:58 |
| phh | so as long as they are marked so, you won't be able to install it automaticly | 16:58 |

| Freddy2 | hi | 18:54 |
| Freddy2 | why some scripts that i launch at rc2.d/rc3.d/rc5.d are not running after booting while other do? | 18:55 |
| Sevis | Freddy - are you sure they don't complete? | 18:56 |
| Freddy2 | for example i've tested with one having a loop forever in the background, but nothing happens.. if i run it manually (with sudo) after booting then it remains there forever | 18:56 |
| Sevis | What is the script supposed to do? | 18:56 |
| Freddy2 | it launches djbdns in a loop, trying to be a respawn-like launcher | 18:57 |
| Sevis | Does it run at least once? | 18:57 |
| Freddy2 | other scripts do, and i can try to echo something to check it, but it should | 18:57 |
| Freddy2 | (other similar scripts, same directory...) | 18:58 |
| Sevis | Try echoing something, please, to see if it has at least one itteration. | 18:58 |
| Freddy2 | ok | 18:58 |

| trampel | Freddy2: how does the while loop ever break to do the "p4"? (i'm probably missing something obvious) | 19:08 |
| Freddy2 | it musn't, but then the inside process should be running (djbdns), and it doesn't | 19:09 |
| trampel | Freddy2: then your problem is narrowed. isn't it? | 19:09 |
