| kaddi1 | maco, i rebooted following the instructions, i reverted the sources.list to gutsy and ran sudo do-release-upgrade again and I still get the "no new ubuntu version available" | 00:02 |
|---|---|---|
| kaddi1 | sadly it also broke my lan connection, so now I can't update anymore... would doing a apt-get update and apt-get dist-upgrade with the new sources be safe? | 00:03 |
| maco | kaddi1: mostly, yes. its not usually recommended because there are some hints about obsolete versions that wont get through...but yeah, ive done it when the upgrader crashed mid-upgrade with only a little bit of bugginess (obsolete & no longer compatible package misbehaving) resulting | 00:04 |
| maco | kaddi1: which kernel does it say youre running now? uname -a | 00:04 |
| maco | maybe you can boot an old kernel to try to use apt? | 00:04 |
| cuznt | #48-Ubuntu SMP | 00:05 |
| cuznt | smp = smoke more pot | 00:06 |
| maco | kaddi1: if push comes to shove, 8.04 can be installed on top of 7.10 from cd without losing your data if you choose manual partitioning, tell it to use the same partition as before and tell it NOT to format the drive. itd then keep your /home | 00:06 |
| maco | cuznt: stop please | 00:06 |
| cuznt | sure... it was true but hard to resist | 00:06 |
| maco | drug use is off topic for the support channel | 00:06 |
| cuznt | i appologise | 00:06 |

| maco | true? SMP = symmetric multi-processing | 00:06 |
| kaddi | yes | 00:08 |
| kaddi | i thought you were asking if smp meant symmetric multi processing, lol :p | 00:09 |
| kaddi | maco, I'm gonna reboot into the old kernel and see if I can get my network back to work | 00:12 |
| maco | kaddi1: k | 00:12 |
| kaddi | maco, actually I'm not.. seems as if the older kernel was removed during upgrade :/ only 22.14 is showing in grub | 00:13 |
| maco | ls /boot | 00:14 |
| kaddi | maco I got my internet back, I'm just gonna run dist-upgrade now :) | 00:20 |

| === syb is now known as syb-away | ||

| mrh0057 | windows or linux client? | 01:12 |
| e370_ | linux hes running the same as me | 01:13 |
| mrh0057 | you can use ssh | 01:13 |
| e370_ | im a noob lol | 01:13 |

| mrh0057 | e370: do you know what telnet is | 01:13 |

| mm_202 | Hey guys, I just installed Kubuntu 9.04 and updraded KDE to 4.3. I have a Nvidia 6800 card (with the 180 drivers), but I dont have any desktop effects. What module do I have to load in xorg.conf to get it to work? | 01:16 |
| e370_ | Nvidia x server? | 01:16 |
| e370_ | i have that | 01:16 |
| mrh0057 | e370: there are different window managers in linux. If both of you are running the same one there is usually a graphical client to connect | 01:16 |
| mrh0057 | e370: Did you install ubuntu or kubuntu | 01:17 |
| mrh0057 | mm_202: make sure glx is loaded | 01:18 |
| === Guest75876 is now known as snd_ | ||
| mm_202 | mrh0057: I see it has the load glx line, let me check the xorg logs. | 01:18 |
| e370_ | ubuntu | 01:19 |
| e370_ | someone just suggest our routers r probably blocking us | 01:19 |
| mrh0057 | e370: if its ubuntu look in the application menu add there should be something about connecting to remote clients | 01:19 |
| e370_ | thanks | 01:19 |
| e370_ | portforwarding? | 01:20 |
| mm_202 | mrh0057: Xorg.0.log says it was loaded fine... .. is that a common problem? | 01:20 |
| e370_ | soz for askin such noobish questions | 01:20 |
| mrh0057 | mm_202: if glx is loaded that means opengl is enabled so it should work | 01:21 |
| mrh0057 | mm_202: run glxinfo and see if its using the nvidia | 01:22 |
| mm_202 | mrh0057: Yeah, OpenGL works (tested with screensavers), but it says "Required X extensions (XComposite and XDamage) are not available." for Desktop Effects. | 01:22 |
| mrh0057 | mm_202: are you running kde or gnome | 01:22 |
| mm_202 | KDE | 01:22 |
| mm_202 | Im in #kubuntu for a reason :) | 01:22 |
| mrh0057 | mm_202: have you tried loading them in Xorg.conf file | 01:25 |

| ign0ramus | so i do "sudo asoundconf set-default-card MP3" | 01:59 |
| ign0ramus | ...nothing :( | 02:00 |
| ign0ramus | it worked fine in hardy, but not jaunty. | 02:00 |
| ign0ramus | i've removed all traces of pulseaudio a while ago... | 02:01 |
| ign0ramus | i would like to listen to The | 02:01 |
| ign0ramus | Clash loudly right now, it is not working :'( | 02:01 |
| ign0ramus | "sudo aplay -l" lists my laptops card as 0, the external (MP3) as 1... is this wrong? | 02:04 |
| ign0ramus | ok guys... let's say I want to play Nickelback on my stereo... does that help? | 02:04 |

| __lEo___ | hi | 02:20 |
| __lEo___ | kubuntuforums.net has been down all day? | 02:21 |
| ign0ramus | __lEo___, "Service Unavailable" | 02:21 |
| __lEo___ | well, yes | 02:22 |
| ign0ramus | __lEo___, so, yeah. | 02:22 |
| __lEo___ | what? | 02:22 |
| ign0ramus | __lEo___, yes. site is down. | 02:22 |
| __lEo___ | I guess it's what we get for having our main support channel served by a windows server :( | 02:23 |
| ign0ramus | __lEo___, last i checked, 2003 :'( | 02:24 |
| __lEo___ | yesp, in netcraft, the stats for ubuntu forum.org is a reboot eveery few months, ower is once every few days, oh well | 02:25 |
| __lEo___ | sorry, i meant ubuntuforums.org ... of course that is hosted by Canonical | 02:25 |
| __lEo___ | I wonder why kubuntuforums couldn't be hosted there | 02:26 |
| __lEo___ | being a special forum in ubuntuforums is not very enticing | 02:26 |
| ign0ramus | __lEo___, havent you heard? Canonical doesn't actually give much attention to KDE | 02:26 |
| __lEo___ | well, yes | 02:26 |
| __lEo___ | but I think they are nice folks | 02:26 |
| __lEo___ | and they give official status to Kubuntu | 02:26 |
| maco | a reboot every few months? LOL | 02:27 |
| maco | ubuntuforums.org goes down every couple days | 02:27 |
| ign0ramus | __lEo___, ...as do I. But if they could implement KDE in Kubuntu like Arch or even OpenSUSE, I would weep with joy. | 02:27 |
| __lEo___ | so I am sure they would accept hosting, I am not even sure who own kubuntuforums | 02:27 |
| maco | we've been begging for new db servers for ages because it cant handle the load | 02:27 |
| ign0ramus | APT ftw | 02:27 |
| __lEo___ | we ... who maco? | 02:27 |
| maco | ign0ramus: the kubuntu team makes it a goal to stay as close to upstream as possible | 02:27 |
| maco | __lEo___: ubuntuforums.org moderators | 02:28 |
| maco | __lEo___: though i suppose those admin folks do more begging. we just get behind the admins going "right no, guys!" | 02:28 |
| maco | s/no/on/ | 02:28 |
| __lEo___ | I see, are you sure about going ... Ah, maybe the db goes down | 02:28 |
| __lEo___ | the server I think not | 02:28 |
| maco | __lEo___: the db goes down constantly and then everyone going to the forums gets a big ol' error across the screen for 5 minutes to an hour depending on how long it takes to fix | 02:29 |
| === Tabstar is now known as Tabmow | ||

| maco | i was surprised to find that kubuntuforum.net even existed since there's always been kubuntu help on ubuntuforums | 02:29 |
| __lEo___ | http://uptime.netcraft.com/up/graph?site=ubuntuforums.org | 02:30 |
| ign0ramus | maco, yes, but always as an afterthought :( | 02:30 |
| carpii_ | maco, the answer is not always to throw hardware at it. you can probably memcache or optimise your queries | 02:30 |
| __lEo___ | well, i have an account in ubuntuforums | 02:30 |
| __lEo___ | it is definitely _the_ ubuntu resource | 02:30 |
| maco | carpii_: we deleted like 1/4 of the forum as a stop-gap measure | 02:30 |
| __lEo___ | but for kubuntu stuff, kubuntuforums is a lot better | 02:30 |
| __lEo___ | kde gets constantly bashed in ubuntuforums | 02:31 |
| maco | __lEo___: ! where? | 02:31 |
| maco | carpii_: ok actually...admins did deleting as mods cant :P | 02:31 |
| __lEo___ | if someone asks for help for kubuntu, the usual answer I've found is "oh man, kde sucks, why are you running this" | 02:31 |
| __lEo___ | I am not saying everyone is unfriendly | 02:32 |
| __lEo___ | there are lots of wonderful people in ubuntuforums | 02:32 |
| __lEo___ | but I find it a lot simpler to give help in kubuntuforums because you don;t have that extra load from the negativity | 02:32 |
| maco | carpii_: but a ton of very old stuff was deleted to try to help. the other-os forum was deleted (people were not happy). AFAIK, all the optimizations anyone could come up with were done, its just too much data. complex queries can take > 5 minutes to run :( | 02:32 |
| __lEo___ | yeah, searches ... quite frankly | 02:33 |
| __lEo___ | isn't it better to outsurce to google? | 02:33 |
| __lEo___ | that';s what i do in kubuntuforums | 02:33 |
| __lEo___ | or ubuntuforums | 02:33 |
| carpii_ | id never use mysql for searching | 02:33 |
| carpii_ | use sphinx | 02:33 |
| __lEo___ | i never search in the forums search box | 02:33 |
| carpii_ | but really you need to understand where the load is coming from, it might not be searches but just bookkeeping | 02:34 |
| __lEo___ | that could be the case carpii | 02:34 |
| maco | __lEo___: i wouldnt disagree with reporting such responses as trolling | 02:34 |
| __lEo___ | but I'd just put a search box that really sends you to google, with "search" + site:ubuntuforums.org | 02:35 |
| __lEo___ | or kubuntuforums.net | 02:35 |
| __lEo___ | of course the search will miss the last couple days | 02:35 |
| __lEo___ | but it's better than nothing | 02:35 |
| carpii_ | goog,le is not always an option, if your forum needs users to register before they can read it | 02:35 |
| __lEo___ | but this is not the case for either ubuntuforums or kubuntuforums | 02:36 |
| maco | i think at one point because queries were so bad we DID switch to google search | 02:36 |
| carpii_ | maco, what is "show processlist" showing you in mysql ? | 02:36 |
| __lEo___ | it may be an issues for other forums | 02:36 |
| carpii_ | lEo, maybe, but are we taling about ubuntu forums ? | 02:36 |
| maco | carpii_: i have no db access since im a mod not an admin | 02:36 |
| carpii_ | oki | 02:36 |
| __lEo___ | yes, ubuntuforums.org. all the content can be accessed without being registered | 02:37 |
| __lEo___ | anyways, it's amazing how far we went as a community | 02:37 |
| carpii_ | oh ok, i thought we were talking about some unknown forum | 02:37 |
| __lEo___ | we become mainstream | 02:37 |
| __lEo___ | no, no | 02:37 |
| __lEo___ | became mainstream, linux runs your phone, your gps, your netbook, amazing | 02:38 |
| __lEo___ | most people in the world, I would say most people with access to electronics are running at least one thing with linux | 02:38 |
| maco | __lEo___: ok other mods agree with me. if someone says kde or kubuntu sucks and tells them to switch to ubuntu+gnome, report it as trolling | 02:38 |
| __lEo___ | k, thanks Maco, I do hang out there | 02:39 |
| __lEo___ | mostly for generic stuff, like hardware issues, etc | 02:39 |
| __lEo___ | most times i give help, i'v ebeen running since 1995 :D | 02:39 |

| SJr | Hmmmmm | 03:47 |
| SJr | Okay I'll look into those. Next question my preformance in KDE seems to suck for graphics, like dragging windows around. I have a GeForce 7400, so I think that should be enough | 03:47 |
| webbb | no not the menu i want to create a file launcher so i can launch firefox 3.5 i downloaded from the net | 03:48 |
| mrh0057 | webb: sorry that the wrong widget | 03:49 |
| webbb | so does anyone know how to create a file launcher so i can launch a program | 03:51 |
| mrh0057 | webbb: you can create a folder view and add applications to launch from there | 03:52 |
| webbb | ok | 03:52 |
| webbb | but you cant create one like in gnome ? | 03:52 |
| mrh0057 | webbb: I think they added a widget that can do that but I don't remember the name | 03:53 |

| luis_ | thx dude :) | 04:02 |
| __lEo___ | :D | 04:02 |
| luis_ | yes | 04:03 |
| luis_ | y? | 04:03 |
| __lEo___ | (luis, that question was for SJr, sorry) | 04:03 |
| luis_ | oh LOL | 04:04 |
| __lEo___ | (SJr was saying something about performance) | 04:04 |
| __lEo___ | yeah, my fault, lol | 04:04 |
| SJr | Some widgets I'm still here | 04:12 |
| __lEo___ | is anyone using kopete for irc? | 04:12 |
| __lEo___ | i just realized i could use it instead of quassel | 04:13 |
| SJr | No | 04:13 |
| SJr | I hate linux IRC clients | 04:13 |
| __lEo___ | which seems like a best at 60Mb for a simple IRC client | 04:13 |
| === vorian is now known as v | ||
| __lEo___ | i don't hate them, but I'd love to see a widget for this | 04:14 |
| __lEo___ | SJr, you were saying about performance | 04:14 |
| __lEo___ | are you running the nvidia binary driver? | 04:14 |
| SJr | Yes | 04:15 |
| __lEo___ | what's the card again? | 04:15 |
| SJr | 7400 | 04:15 |
| __lEo___ | IGP or dedicated card | 04:15 |
| __lEo___ | geforce? | 04:15 |
| SJr | VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation G72M [GeForce Go 7400] (rev a1) | 04:15 |
| SJr | IGP (Notebook) | 04:15 |
| __lEo___ | i think with most IGP's you need to disable desktop effects to have good performance | 04:17 |
| __lEo___ | is that your case? Are they on? | 04:17 |
| luis_ | Ei IEo u use virtual box? | 04:17 |
| __lEo___ | no no virtual box | 04:18 |
| luis_ | i just installed it because i wanna use XP, but it says i need a ISO image of XP to use the SO, where i can get 1 free? | 04:18 |
| SJr | Yeah | 04:18 |
| SJr | They are on, that's why it sucks | 04:18 |
| SJr | Hmmmm I think I actually found the reason | 04:18 |
| SJr | GNOME is still running | 04:18 |
| __lEo___ | SJ: try them off | 04:18 |
| FloodBotK2 | SJr: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 04:18 |
| SJr | I want them on :) | 04:18 |
| luis_ | LOL | 04:18 |
| SJr | How can gnome be running at the same time, that's weird | 04:19 |
| __lEo___ | You can switch to another session I guess | 04:19 |
| __lEo___ | and have GNOME on the backgroung | 04:19 |
| __lEo___ | d | 04:19 |
| SJr | No but KDE is running too | 04:19 |
| SJr | I just noticed that when I right click on my desktop, I get the gnome context menu, and my background is controlled by Gnome too | 04:19 |
| __lEo___ | I am not sure how you can do that. SJr | 04:20 |
| __lEo___ | ah, probably kopete in Jaunty still doesn't do irc | 04:31 |
| claus | здрасти | 04:31 |
| __lEo___ | I don't see the option | 04:31 |
| __lEo___ | claus: I agree | 04:31 |
| __lEo___ | :) | 04:31 |

| __lEo___ | i can give it a shot | 04:34 |
| __lEo___ | let me see | 04:34 |
| FloodBotK2 | __lEo___: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 04:34 |
| __lEo___ | now it is working nicely | 04:35 |
| __lEo___ | you can drop an icon from the menu into the quick launcher | 04:35 |
| __lEo___ | and get it in the quick launcher | 04:35 |
| webbb | i really understoof that | 04:36 |
| __lEo___ | well, sorry for wating your time, it was broken before | 04:38 |

| carpii_ | try tweaking the refresh rate limits in xorg.conf | 04:50 |
| carpii_ | sometimes the auto-detect monitor feature does a real crumby job | 04:50 |
| jcrx | hmm so how could i do it? | 04:51 |
| jcrx | i ried puttin Option "Panel Size" "1024x768" | 04:51 |
| jcrx | but nothing | 04:51 |
| carpii_ | its not the resolution necessarily | 04:52 |
| carpii_ | it might be the refresh rate | 04:52 |
| jcrx | hmm how could I wirte that instruction on the Device section on xorg ? | 04:52 |
| pxwebdev | how can I view as folders group setting within konsole? | 04:53 |

| carpii_ | http://nopaste.com/p/agMBvrhEQ | 04:53 |
| carpii_ | but i cant really talk you through it, sorry | 04:53 |
| carpii_ | just try the Horiz Refresh and the modes etc | 04:53 |
| carpii_ | see if it helps | 04:53 |
| jcrx | ok, ill try it | 04:54 |
| jcrx | thnx | 04:54 |
| pxwebdev | how can you see the groups assigned to a particular folder from terminal? | 04:55 |
| jcrx | is it the jaunty version stable? | 05:02 |
| webbb | anyone know of a good dock for kde | 05:03 |
| maco | jcrx: what's the output of the "xrandr" command? | 05:05 |
| maco | pxwebdev: ls -l foo (where foo is the folder's name). there will be a column of owner and right after it the column of its group | 05:05 |
| maco | oh its been a while... | 05:05 |
| maco | well if you see this, the xrandr command lets you change screen settings. may need to add a mode, but the manpage describes how to do that | 05:06 |

| mostafa | it shows the shutdown notification very late for example 10 sec | 05:46 |
| mostafa | can anybody explain it? | 05:46 |
| mostafa | webbb: what do you want exactly? | 05:47 |
| webbb | a good dock or app launcher so i dont have to use the kmenu | 05:47 |

| webbb | kinda like that | 05:54 |
| gh | I have tried both the 9.04 livecd/dvd and neither are able to use my ethernet(intelpro100). Looking a the dmesg shows the card is recognized, but the widget/menu does not see the card and all attempts with ifconfig have failed. | 05:54 |
| mostafa | webbb: do you add the widget "Folder view"? | 05:56 |
| webbb | ya | 05:57 |
| mostafa | webbb: and it is useless for your goal? | 05:57 |
| gh | I have not had the same problem with other *buntus, other distributions, or operating systems. | 05:57 |
| webbb | it works i just wwwanted somthing better | 05:57 |

| sayakb | hello! I added the kubuntu-ppa to get kde 4.3 and i now have broken packages. it stops on kdebase-workspace-dev | 06:47 |
| sayakb | i am left with the tty's and nothing else. any way to solve it other than reinstalling kubuntu? | 06:47 |
| === gorgonzola_ is now known as gorgonzola | ||
| J-_ | sayakb: Did you, "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade"? | 06:52 |
| sayakb | J-_: as I added those from ppa, those upgrades were not available from upgrade, so I did sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 06:52 |
| J-_ | So you're trying to upgrade to another release? | 06:53 |
| sayakb | nope, just upgrade to kde 4.3 | 06:53 |
| sayakb | dist-upgrade will also install backports, and 4.3 is backported in kubuntu | 06:54 |
| J-_ | Ah I see, I dunno then. It's the reason why I never uograde. I always reinstall. | 06:54 |
| sayakb | ok, np | 06:54 |

| sayakb | only if I could open those, stuck with my tty's, so no X | 06:55 |
| J-_ | links2 | 06:56 |
| sayakb | i do have links2, hm. thanks, i'll read them | 06:56 |

| SJr | Argh that's lame | 09:35 |

| arash | I am new to Kubuntu.How should I install a program like firefox-3.5.2.tar.bz2 ? I should just untar and find the script that runs it ? How should I introduce to OS as default browser and tell to place it in desktop or start menu ? | 09:52 |
| michaelc | arash extract it to your desktop | 09:57 |
| michaelc | when done lemmie no | 09:58 |
| arash | michaelc: I meant how should I register it with OS ? So it knows this is my browser? | 09:59 |
| arash | michaelc : I have extract it to desktop.Now what should i do? | 10:00 |
| michaelc | arash: you want to install it right | 10:02 |
| lifeofguenter | hi all | 10:02 |
| arash | michaelc : yes.. | 10:02 |
| michaelc | open terminal and then put this in it cd ~/Desktop/folderName && ./configure && make && sudo make install | 10:02 |
| michaelc | change foldername to its folder | 10:02 |
| lifeofguenter | anybody success with multiple monitor setup on kde4.3 / kubuntu karmic alpha4 ? | 10:02 |
| arash | michaelc : thanks man.I will try it now.. | 10:02 |
| michaelc | arash: any trobles lemmie no | 10:03 |
| michaelc | lifeofguenter: aright what grapics card do you have | 10:03 |
| lifeofguenter | ati, i have direct rendering, and I used to do it with xrandr in gnome/xfce | 10:04 |
| lifeofguenter | but I decided to give karmic / kde a try.. unfortunately since karmic there is not even a xorg.conf anymore | 10:04 |
| michaelc | lifeofguenter: hmm im not sure on that 1 have you tryed googleing it | 10:05 |
| arash | michaelc: it returns error on ./configure | 10:05 |
| arash | arash@arash:~/Desktop/firefox$ ./configure | 10:05 |
| arash | bash: ./configure: No such file or directory | 10:05 |
| lifeofguenter | under system settings -> display -> multiple monitors it basically says (like reported in forums.kde) that I do not have it configured.. but it does not give any advice how and where I can do that ;) | 10:05 |
| michaelc | ok do this | 10:05 |
| michaelc | whats the folder called | 10:05 |
| arash | firefox | 10:05 |
| lifeofguenter | arash: why do you want to compile firefox? | 10:05 |
| lifeofguenter | if you downloaded the tar from the official site you don't need to compile it | 10:06 |
| arash | i dont want to compile . I want to register it with os | 10:06 |
| michaelc | arash: cd ~/Desktop/firefox then make then sodo make install | 10:06 |
| michaelc | sudo* | 10:06 |
| lifeofguenter | afaik firefox does not provide any makefile | 10:06 |
| michaelc | lifeofguenter: it had it when i domne mine | 10:07 |
| arash | yea it hasnt any | 10:07 |
| michaelc | done* | 10:07 |
| arash | no it doesnt have make.make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop. | 10:08 |
| lifeofguenter | arash: just unpack it to /opt/firefox | 10:08 |
| lifeofguenter | go to "System Settings" -> "Default Applications" | 10:08 |
| michaelc | arash: have you tryed synaptic packet manager | 10:08 |
| lifeofguenter | make a symlink to /usr/local/bin/firefox | 10:08 |
| arash | No its my first time booting with Kubuntu | 10:08 |
| lifeofguenter | and put under web browser "firefox" as custom app | 10:08 |
| michaelc | it has firefox there | 10:08 |
| lifeofguenter | then every link you click will be opened by firefox | 10:08 |
| lifeofguenter | I would not install the firefox-3.5 package of kubuntu | 10:09 |
| arash | thanks ..let me see how it works out. | 10:09 |
| lifeofguenter | it installs many gnome dependencies which are not needed | 10:09 |
| arash | why ? | 10:09 |
| lifeofguenter | afaik broken package for kde/kubuntu | 10:09 |
| lifeofguenter | ehm not afaik but imho | 10:09 |
| michaelc | well i see you guys in a bit need to pop to the shop | 10:09 |
| lifeofguenter | ok cu later michaelc :) | 10:09 |
| arash | so you mean I should continue with Konquerer? | 10:10 |
| lifeofguenter | no I just meant you should not install it with apt-get/e.g. using the official kubuntu repository | 10:10 |
| arash | aha. | 10:10 |
| lifeofguenter | go to mozilla.com, grab a tar, unpack in /opt/, make symlink, set as default browser | 10:10 |
| lifeofguenter | and you are fine :) | 10:10 |
| kavurt | arash, try ubuntuzilla | 10:15 |
| arash | it doesnt extract to /opt ! | 10:15 |
| arash | i extract it to desktop or other folder, when i try opt it creates nothing. | 10:15 |
| lifeofguenter | you have to do it with sudo | 10:15 |
| lifeofguenter | though its only adviceable not mandatory.. in fact you can just leave it on desktop.. but I like my system clean :) | 10:16 |
| lifeofguenter | hmm interesting projects, thanks kavurt | 10:17 |

| nstar7 | hey | 11:19 |
| apparle | I use kate for editing c files........Can I get a direct shortcut to make them | 11:19 |
| apparle | I mean hotkey | 11:19 |
| apparle | Or do I have to open console and type make?? | 11:20 |
| tsimpson | don't think so, Kate is not an (full) IDE | 11:21 |
| lifeofguenter | anybody here in karmic already? | 11:21 |
| tsimpson | the're are lots of karmic users in #ubuntu+1 | 11:22 |
| tsimpson | s/'re/ | 11:22 |
| lifeofguenter | ubuntu+1? | 11:23 |
| apparle | tsimpson: but isn't there anyways to assingn shorcuts to direct commands in kate?? | 11:23 |
| lifeofguenter | cool thanks tsimpson | 11:23 |
| tsimpson | apparle: I'm not sure, I've never really looked for it. the closest thing I see is "Pipe to terminal" | 11:24 |
| apparle | tsimpson: can you suggest a good ide for gcc-avr then | 11:25 |
| tsimpson | gcc-avr? | 11:25 |
| apparle | tsimpson: for embedded system programming | 11:30 |
| tsimpson | if it's just C with a specific compiler, most IDEs should work | 11:31 |
| tsimpson | !ide | 11:31 |
| ubottu | Programming editors/suites: Terminal-based: vi/vim, emacs - KDE: Kate, KDevelop, Quanta+, Umbrello - GNOME: gvim, gedit, anjuta, pida, monodevelop, geany - Others: eclipse, netbeans, QtCreator | 11:31 |
| tsimpson | I tend to use QtCreator (Qt development) or KDevelop | 11:32 |
| apparle | tsimpson: Kate is shown in ide | 11:34 |
| tsimpson | it's not a full IDE though, it's a text editor with syntax highlighting | 11:35 |
| apparle | and any tool to generate makefiles...........................or any tutorial to write make files | 11:40 |
| tsimpson | there is autoconf/automake, qmake and cmake to generate Makefiles | 11:41 |
| apparle | tsimpson: but they must be for gcc and not for embedded systems......or can they be configured | 11:44 |
| tsimpson | in all of them, you can specify the compiler executable | 11:45 |
| tsimpson | cmake is probably the easiest and most portable to work with | 11:45 |
| pescado | hello | 11:53 |
| pescado | can anybody tell me which desktop is better gnome or kde | 11:53 |
| pescado | can i use gnome with kubuntu | 11:53 |
| tsimpson | pescado: it depends on which you prefer, and you can use both gnome and KDE on the same system | 11:57 |
| === eli_ is now known as Elirips | ||
| apparle | pescado: if you are going to use gnome on kubuntu then what's the point.........straight way use ubuntu | 12:02 |
| apparle | tsimpson: can you plz tell me the web page of cmake | 12:03 |
| tsimpson | apparle: cmake.org | 12:03 |
| apparle | also: how to install http://www.sax.de/~joerg/mfile/ | 12:03 |
| tsimpson | apparle: download the tar.gz and read the README file | 12:06 |
| apparle | I didn't understand it so I was asking | 12:07 |
| tsimpson | apparle: you need to install tk8.5, edit mfile.tcl to have "#!/usr/bin/wish" then edit makefile_template and run mfile.tcl | 12:13 |
| apparle | tsimpson: thanks.......................can you suggest any simple editor with configurable commands............I know programmers notepad in windows.........can you suggest anything similar | 12:15 |
| tsimpson | apparle: you should ask in #kde if Kate does it, it may. if not then you'll want some form of IDE | 12:16 |
| apparle | tsimpson: I'll try........thanks | 12:16 |

| === StasV is now known as LegolasV | ||
| llutz | heo: you are not owner of that X-session, trying that as root? | 13:42 |
| llutz | heo: do it as user, no reason to use a browser as root | 13:42 |
| heo | llutz: probably, I change the user, but both users should have sudo access | 13:42 |
| heo | *changed | 13:42 |
| heo | *have | 13:43 |
| pm2 | llutz, that'll do it - thanks | 13:44 |
| heo | llutz: I cannot understand your point. How can I switch to other user ... | 13:44 |
| heo | ... without su other_user ? | 13:44 |
| llutz | heo kdesu/kdesudo, sux, lot's of ways to change user AND x-permissions | 13:45 |
| === tof is now known as Guest38371 | ||
| heo | llutz: are gnomesu/gnomesudo equivalent? why are they not readily ... | 13:48 |
| heo | ... installed? | 13:48 |
| llutz | heo: no clue, i'm not a dev, better ask them. maybe because there are hardly reasons to use x-apps as root | 13:51 |
| heo | llutz: are your suggestions about running x-apps as root? | 13:52 |
| heo | if so, is there some other way to circcumvent the error "Cannot open ... | 13:53 |
| heo | ... display."? | 13:53 |
| hayet | hi ... what is admin password on kubuntu plz? | 13:54 |
| llutz | heo: you always have to set xauthority rights correct if trying to start a x-app, if you are not owner of running x-session | 13:55 |
| llutz | heo: that's what kdesu/kdesudo, sux and all those tools do | 13:56 |
| J2daosh | anyone in here have experience with mysql? | 13:56 |
| J2daosh | no i dont want to go to the mysql room, they wont give me the answer | 13:56 |
| J2daosh | lol | 13:56 |
| hayet | plz help me ... | 13:57 |
| J2daosh | i just want to know if mysql ever spits out the passwords in plaintext. | 13:57 |
| llutz | hayet: use sudo, no real root-account available by default | 13:57 |
| J2daosh | im trying to hack my test box so i can learn how it was done so yeah. i have malicious intent, but i own it so its fine | 13:58 |
| hayet | i test sudo, admin, root, adminadmin and my user session password nothing good :( | 13:59 |
| BluesKaj | Hiyas all | 13:59 |
| llutz | hayet: sudo is a program, not a "password" | 13:59 |
| hayet | i coudn't install nothing, it ask me an administrative privilege pwd | 13:59 |
| hayet | how could i resolve this pb | 14:00 |
| llutz | hayet: use your user-password if prompted for a password | 14:00 |
| hayet | i do it llutz | 14:00 |
| hayet | so it don't function | 14:01 |
| Dragnslcr | Are you sure your user has sudo access? | 14:02 |
| drvoodoo | hayet: your standard user account (which was created by installation) has administrative privileges in combination with the sudo-command | 14:02 |
| hayet | i don't know i'm a newbie on linux | 14:02 |
| drvoodoo | so every command, which needs administrative privileges must begin with a prepended sudo | 14:03 |
| drvoodoo | and the promted password is your user password | 14:04 |
| heo | llutz: Thank you. Got it running :) | 14:04 |
| hayet | sorry it's not my computer and i have'nt install it | 14:04 |
| hayet | i'm french so i'm in hollydays in italia | 14:05 |
| hayet | and i help my friend | 14:05 |
| Dragnslcr | If you aren't using the account that was created when Kubuntu was installed, then you probably don't have sudo access | 14:05 |
| hayet | it is his computer | 14:05 |
| hayet | how could i transform an user account to sudo | 14:06 |
| Dragnslcr | You'd need root access | 14:06 |
| hayet | how get root acces? | 14:06 |
| Dragnslcr | With an account that has it | 14:07 |
| llutz | hayet: ask owner of that computer | 14:07 |
| hayet | he is in london that is the pb | 14:07 |
| Dragnslcr | Obviously a normal user being able to give themselves root access would be a massive security hole | 14:07 |
| Dragnslcr | You might be able to use a Live CD to get permission to modifier the sudoers file, but if you don't know what you're doing, it can be pretty dangerous | 14:09 |
| hayet | ok... another question ... could i extract the wpa keys from kubuntu | 14:09 |
| hayet | coz i have my computer windows and i coudn't connect coz i have not the keys | 14:10 |
| hayet | only on this kubuntu coòputer | 14:10 |
| Dragnslcr | Maybe, but I don't know what file they're stored in | 14:10 |
| eitreach_ | How do I share a folder via Samba in KDE 4.3? | 14:10 |
| Dragnslcr | And they're most likely stored encrypted | 14:10 |
| hayet | is there a software to retreive this key like wpaviewer on windows | 14:11 |
| Dragnslcr | eitreach_- I know Dolphin has an interface for it in a directory's Properties dialog, but I haven't used it, so I don't know how well it works | 14:11 |
| eitreach_ | Dragnslcr: I've found something in there, but when I click it, nothing happens. | 14:12 |
| Dragnslcr | eitreach_- I don't know, sorry. Like I said, I've never used it, I just know it's there | 14:14 |

| Phrea | I have a quick question that's prob been asked a thousand times... | 15:07 |
| Phrea | is KDE 4.3 already implemented in Kubuntu 9.04 or do I have to wait a bit before downloading 9.04? | 15:08 |
| tsimpson | Phage: did you read the topic? | 15:08 |
| Phrea | yes | 15:08 |
| Phrea | but it isnt really clear | 15:09 |

| tsimpson | Phage: do you have KDE installed now? | 15:12 |
| Phrea | thank you for your time, patience and help | 15:12 |
| michaelc | can someone help me change my microhone device | 15:13 |
| tsimpson | !audio | 15:14 |
| ubottu | If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ARTS is running, by going to K Menu -> System Settings -> Sound System and making sure "Enable the sound system" is checked. If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 | 15:14 |
| tsimpson | eek, that's a little old | 15:14 |
| Phrea | tsimpson: if you are meaning me: no, I'm waiting for a hardware upgrade, before I install Kubuntu | 15:14 |
| tsimpson | Phage: so what do you have now? | 15:14 |
| tsimpson | did it again... | 15:14 |
| Phrea | I'm Phrea :) | 15:14 |
| tsimpson | Phrea | 15:14 |

| michaelc | my menu is diffent | 15:15 |
| michaelc | i have ultimate edition | 15:15 |
| tsimpson | michaelc: try the first link | 15:15 |
| Phrea | so if it would be worth it to wait a few days/weeks to download kubuntu if KDE 4.3 then is implemented, I'll have some more patience :) | 15:16 |

| michaelc | hmmm i just want to chage my microphone decive to my usb microphone | 15:17 |
| michaelc | device* | 15:17 |
| tsimpson | Phrea: you won't get a CD with 4.3, unless you get Karmic development release | 15:17 |
| Phrea | aha, that's immediately clear :) | 15:17 |
| Phrea | thank you | 15:17 |
| tsimpson | but you can upgrade KDE 4.2 to 4.3 when you install Jaunty | 15:18 |
| Phrea | yes, I've been reading, just wondered about this question I had :) | 15:18 |
| tsimpson | michaelc: there should be info on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting | 15:18 |
| Phrea | is it OK of I hang around for a while to learn the channel a bit, I'm bound to have loads of questions after installing | 15:19 |
| tsimpson | sure, anyone is welcome here :) | 15:19 |
| Phrea | this channel is for novices and guru's alike? | 15:20 |
| Phrea | or is there maybe a dedicated novice channel? | 15:20 |
| tsimpson | this is a general Kubuntu support channel, so it has both | 15:20 |

| eitreach | Is it a known bug that KDE 4.3 can't see an external drive before it is accessed via the sidebar in Dolphin or application launcher? | 15:56 |
| apparle | hi guys | 15:56 |
| apparle | I am unable to conenct to gmail using konqueror | 15:56 |
| apparle | and arora doesn't connect to any site | 15:56 |
| Mamarok | apparle: konqueror can only use basic html in Gmail | 15:57 |
| Mamarok | else it's too slow | 15:57 |
| apparle | but it is not even showing the login page | 15:57 |
| Mamarok | eitreach: yep, but that is always so, a device has to be mounted to be able to access it | 15:57 |
| eitreach | Mamarok: I see. Can I have it automount during startup? That would save me a lot of problems in Amarok as well. | 15:58 |
| Mamarok | apparle: then you have a settings problem, are you sure everything is installed correctly? | 15:58 |
| Mamarok | eitreach: you can install automount, of course, but that is not very secure | 15:58 |
| eitreach | Mamarok: How so? Pardon the questions, but I've just been using Gnome for an amazing long time. | 15:59 |
| apparle | Mamarok: I can connect to google but neither gmail not orkut | 15:59 |
| Mamarok | eitreach: I think there is a package for it, let me see | 16:01 |
| apparle | Mamarok: Also I can't connect using arora at all | 16:02 |
| bittin | Hello, somone here knows anything about wvdail iam trying to get an Huawei E1550 to work | 16:02 |
| Mamarok | eitreach: check the package usbmount | 16:02 |
| eitreach | Mamarok: oh, I meant how it wasn't secure. | 16:02 |
| eitreach | Mamarok: thanks. :) | 16:02 |
| Mamarok | apparle: then you have a connection settings problem I guess, can you ping google.com from a komsole? | 16:02 |
| Mamarok | eitreach: you are welcome | 16:03 |
| robin0800 | bittin: try kppp or gnome-ppp | 16:04 |
| bittin | robin0800: k | 16:04 |
| bittin | robin0800: i tried with wvdail | 16:04 |
| apparle | Mamarok: how to ping............by using 'ping google.com'?? | 16:05 |
| robin0800 | bittin: gnome-ppp is a front end for wvdial | 16:05 |
| bittin | ok | 16:05 |
| Mamarok | apparle: yes, just type that in a konsole window | 16:05 |
| bittin | robin0800: installed it now | 16:06 |
| beagleburt | Mamarok: I am having problems with Konqueror also - can not get online at all...can do so with Firefox | 16:06 |
| bittin | it dosen't find my modem :( | 16:07 |
| Mamarok | what Kubuntu version? | 16:07 |
| Mamarok | beagleburt: ^ | 16:07 |
| robin0800 | bittin: you need to run it as root or it won't start pppd | 16:07 |
| bittin | :o | 16:07 |
| apparle | Mamarok: I am getting uknow host | 16:07 |
| beagleburt | Mamarok: version 8.04 LTS | 16:07 |
| Mamarok | apparle: then something is wrong with your network settings, what network connection do you use? | 16:08 |
| apparle | Mamarok: LAN with proxy server | 16:08 |
| Mamarok | apparle: then you should check your proxy settings, apprently that doesn't let you through | 16:08 |
| Mamarok | beagleburt: what network connection do yu use? | 16:08 |
| Mamarok | you*, sry | 16:08 |
| bittin | robin0800: gnome-ppp is not finding my modem but lsusb finds it and its blinking blue that is according to the manual when it finds a 3G Network | 16:09 |
| apparle | Mamarok: but I can connect to google.com..............but not to gmail.com...... | 16:09 |
| beagleburt | Mamarok: dialup external modem 56k; "Firestarter" firewall | 16:09 |
| Mamarok | apparle: wait, you can open the http://www.google.com website but not the gmail one? | 16:10 |
| robin0800 | bittin: what settings have you uesed in gnome-ppp? | 16:10 |
| bittin | was trying to detect the modem and it saied no modem | 16:10 |
| Mamarok | beagleburt: ouch, I have no idea about that, but you surely need to install something ppp related | 16:10 |
| apparle | Mamarok: exactly | 16:11 |
| bittin | and Type: USB Modem | 16:11 |
| Mamarok | apparle: then it could be a gmail server problem, you don't see the login screen? | 16:11 |
| beagleburt | Mamarok: but I can surf ok with Firefox???? | 16:11 |
| apparle | Mamarok: and I can open some other sites also like ubuntu or sourceforge etc | 16:11 |
| christian_lappy | hey guys | 16:12 |
| bittin | Hello | 16:12 |
| apparle | Mamarok: but gmail works alright when I try to open it in windows | 16:12 |
| christian_lappy | is it already recommended to upgrade from 9.04 to 9.10 alpha 4 ? | 16:12 |
| Mamarok | apparle: it works here for me, so it could well be either a firewall or a proxy setting that doesn't let you connect | 16:12 |
| bittin | if you are exprimental | 16:12 |
| Mamarok | apparle: that's not comparable, you need to check the proxy settings, that's most likely the problem | 16:13 |
| bittin | robin0800: are it ok to pm you? | 16:13 |
| Mamarok | christian_lappy: no, that is *never* recommended :) | 16:13 |
| robin0800 | bittin: yes | 16:13 |
| christian_lappy | Mamarok: lol | 16:13 |
| christian_lappy | Mamarok: is 9.10 alpha 4 already usable or full of showstopper bugs ? | 16:13 |
| Mamarok | christian_lappy: if you want to t4est and can live with alpha software that can break on a daily basis, then you are free to do so, support is in #ubuntu+1 | 16:14 |
| apparle | Mamarok: I don't know abt a firewall because I have just installed kubutnu | 16:14 |
| apparle | Mamarok: Can you help me setup arora | 16:14 |
| eitreach | Mamarok: usbmount didn't do the trick. :( I still have to click my drive in Dolphin's sidebar to make it visible to programs. | 16:14 |
| Mamarok | apparle: but you are behind a proxy, so you need to change your proxy settings in Kubuntu I guess | 16:14 |
| Mamarok | eitreach: that is due to the fact that there are more than one option to open a USB drive for | 16:15 |
| Mamarok | eitreach: you can add it to the /etc/fstab though to get it mounted on startup | 16:15 |
| Mamarok | apparle: I don't know Arora, sorry | 16:15 |
| eitreach | Mamarok: I just don't understand that Gnome mounts it automatically, but KDE does not. | 16:16 |
| Mamarok | eitreach: different paradigms | 16:16 |
| eitreach | and putting it in fstab will make it mount in KDE? Just so I understand.. | 16:16 |
| apparle | Mamarok: I have done that...............thats why I am able to chat with you using "webchat.freenode.net" | 16:16 |
| Mamarok | apparle: well, then I don't know, I am not very savvy in proxy settings | 16:17 |
| Mamarok | eitreach: you can edit the Device Actions in the systemsettings -> Advanced Tab to choose the default action | 16:18 |
| drvoodoo | hello everybody. i have trouble with krdc, can't connect via vnc. i can't choose the vnc-protocoll anymore. the automatic detection finds the other machine, but wenn i want to connect it says "The entered address can not be processed" (translated from german) | 16:19 |
| Mamarok | eitreach: yes, the /etc/fstab set's the mount options on startup for all devices, using the UUID settings is recommended, so it doesn't depend on one particular USB port | 16:19 |
| eitreach | Alright.. | 16:20 |
| apparle | tsimpson: can you plz tell me how to start mfile gain http://www.sax.de/~joerg/mfile/ | 16:21 |
| tsimpson | apparle: just run the mfile.tcl script, after editing the "set prefix" line to where the script is | 16:23 |
| apparle | tsimpson: how to run the script | 16:24 |
| tsimpson | from a terminal, go to the directory it's in, and type ./mfile.tcl | 16:25 |
| tsimpson | or you can type in the full path in Alt-F2 | 16:26 |
| apparle | I get bash: ./mfile.tcl: /usr/local/bin/tixwish: bad interpreter: No such file or directoryn | 16:26 |
| tsimpson | apparle: you need to change the 1st line to "#!/usr/bin/wish" | 16:28 |
| tsimpson | and make sure you have tk8.5 installed | 16:29 |
| apparle | tsimpson: got it thanks | 16:29 |

| apparle | tsimpson: can you help with arora web browser | 16:31 |
| kaddi | how do i get the wicd packages for intrepid, when the intrepid can't get online? Every guide I can find only describes how to add in the repositories for intrepid, which won't help me because I can't get online. | 16:32 |
| tsimpson | apparle: I don't use arora (yet) | 16:33 |
| Mamarok | kaddi: try /query ubottu !info wicd | 16:33 |
| Mamarok | kaddi: right now you are online, aren't you? | 16:33 |
| kaddi | Mamarok I know, but it is not in the ubuntu-reps for intrepid. Are you saying I should simply get the jaunty version for intrepid as well? | 16:34 |
| apparle | tsimpson: I thought I would give it a try in jaunty itself...........I am unable to configure it to use proxy | 16:34 |
| Mamarok | kaddi: oh, sorry, what KDE version do you use in Intrepid? | 16:34 |
| kaddi | Mamarok 4.1 | 16:34 |
| kaddi | I think, default one | 16:34 |
| Mamarok | kaddi: then you are probably better off in Jaunty anyway | 16:34 |
| KlavKalashj | hey | 16:34 |
| kaddi | Mamarok but that would mean that I manage to get online and update my intrepid.. (which is what I'm actually trying to do) | 16:35 |
| KlavKalashj | If I install an icon theme through the appearance settings, will it get automatically updated when possible? | 16:35 |
| Mamarok | kaddi: because you only have WiFi access, no lan? | 16:35 |
| kaddi | Mamarok because it isn't recognizing lan anymore with knetworkmanager | 16:36 |
| Mamarok | kaddi: that is weird, how come? | 16:36 |
| kaddi | and wifi is disable and knetworkmanager ate the setting to reenable it | 16:36 |
| Mamarok | I have never ssen that before | 16:36 |
| Mamarok | at least not in Intrepid | 16:36 |
| kaddi | Mamarok I don't really know, I did an update from hardy to intrepid yesterday and knetworkmanager got borked obviously | 16:36 |
| Mamarok | kaddi: you did a frsh install or an upgrade? | 16:37 |
| kaddi | upgrade | 16:37 |
| Mamarok | rarely a good idea, especially when chaning to a major new KDE version | 16:37 |
| Mamarok | kaddi: and you don't have a CD at hand? | 16:38 |
| floown | hello | 16:38 |
| Mamarok | kaddi: because then you can get the networ-manager from the CD | 16:39 |
| kaddi | Mamarok you mean the nm-applet? | 16:39 |
| floown | I search a program to control the desktop of my father, I want to move his mouse and seen him where to clic | 16:40 |
| Mamarok | kaddi: no, the network-manager | 16:40 |
| Mamarok | kaddi: as you apparently have problems with it | 16:40 |
| kaddi | Mamarok ah, you mean just remove and reinstall it? | 16:41 |
| Mamarok | kaddi: well, yes, as it is on the CD | 16:41 |
| Mamarok | kaddi: first, did you try just removing your previous kde settings? Moving .kde/ and .kde4/ to something else then restart? | 16:42 |
| kaddi | I should have it somewhere... | 16:42 |
| xsebsx | how so i open /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base ? | 16:42 |
| kaddi | lol, I just found knoppix 3.0 :o | 16:43 |
| Mamarok | xsebsx: why would you want to do that? | 16:43 |
| Mamarok | kaddi: which is not helpful in our case anyway | 16:43 |
| Mamarok | kaddi: actually, you can start the computer with it and download the *.deb file | 16:43 |
| Mamarok | xsebsx: and it is called /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf | 16:44 |
| xsebsx | Mamarok: because im trying to fix the sound on my computer and its on a page of a forum that addreesses similar problems, to which i had to resort after coming here and pretty much told that i'll have to learn for help, eventuallly i was able to get the sound going on my computer only i can only get it to work for webpages like youtube, not for mp3s and files | 16:45 |
| apparle | plz tell me how to configure arora to use proxy | 16:45 |
| Mamarok | xsebsx: because you probably don't have the codecs installed | 16:45 |
| Mamarok | !codecs | 16:45 |
| ubottu | For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also https://help.ubuntu.com/9.04/musicvideophotos/C/video.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats | 16:45 |
| xsebsx | no no no | 16:46 |
| xsebsx | youtube, flsh, etc works fine | 16:46 |
| Mamarok | xsebsx: editing alsa-base.conf will not help you for that | 16:46 |
| xsebsx | i have the restricted non free codecs installed | 16:46 |
| Mamarok | xsebsx: mp3 needs a codec | 16:46 |
| xsebsx | what i dont have is sound for mp3 because it says the alsa device doesnt work | 16:46 |
| Mamarok | xsebsx: what are your basic settings? KDE version, Phonon backend, etc.? | 16:46 |
| Mamarok | xsebsx: sounds like you have pulseaudio taking over | 16:47 |
| BluesKaj | xsebsx, sudo aptitude install libxine1-ffmpeg | 16:47 |
| apparle | xsebsx: which sound card | 16:47 |
| Mamarok | BluesKaj: he has the codecs | 16:47 |
| xsebsx | i'm on gnome, and ive installed kubuntu desktop over ubuntu so i can boot on either kde or gnome | 16:47 |
| BluesKaj | that's the mp3 codec for amarok and other players | 16:47 |
| Mamarok | xsebsx: you need to install the phonon-backend packages then | 16:47 |
| apparle | xsebsx: does the alsa device work on gnome | 16:47 |
| * Mamarok gives up, with 3 people asking different things that will end nowhere... | 16:48 | |
| BluesKaj | xsebsx, also sudo apt-get install libk3b3-extracodecs | 16:48 |
| Mamarok | apparle: that is not his problem, else he qouldn't have sound *at* *all* | 16:48 |
| Mamarok | wouldn't" | 16:48 |
| apparle | Mamarok: Oh he has sound then............just not able to use it in KDE | 16:49 |

| peteair | Any word on Kubuntuforums,coming back online. | 16:53 |
| kaddi | Mamarok ok, found that CD :) do i need to add the entire deb cdrom: [Kubuntu 8.10 _Intrepid Ibex_ - Release i386 (20081029.1)]/ intrepid main restricted into the sources.list? | 16:54 |
| kaddi | or would deb cdrom be enough? | 16:54 |
| xsebsx | back | 16:55 |
| bittin | do somone know how to get a DVD TV-dongle to work with mplayer? | 16:55 |
| apparle | guys how real is this http://arstechnica.com/open-source/news/2008/08/nokia-helps-port-firefox-to-qt.ars | 16:56 |
| xsebsx | wooohoo! amarok working | 16:57 |
| xsebsx | mp3s playing | 16:57 |
| apparle | xsebsx: enjoy :) | 16:57 |
| xsebsx | now next step | 16:58 |
| xsebsx | i cant get the cool effects | 16:58 |
| xsebsx | visual effects | 16:58 |
| xsebsx | last i checked i couldnt get the cool compiz or beryl whichever it is on gnome | 16:58 |
| apparle | xsebsx: kde comes with its own windows manager KWin | 16:59 |
| xsebsx | oh no it worked | 16:59 |
| xsebsx | yes yes | 16:59 |
| xsebsx | but i'm on gnome | 16:59 |
| xsebsx | i mean | 16:59 |
| FloodBotK2 | xsebsx: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 16:59 |
| xsebsx | i installed the original gnome ubuntu jaunty then i aptitude installed kubuntu-desktop | 17:00 |
| xsebsx | now i'll go pee before i get on to talking about my kde problems | 17:00 |
| shadeslayer | hi,i checked the box having "Different activity for each desktop" and i have 4 Virtual Desktops but 5 activities,how do i remove the extra activity (no X sign on any activity while zooming out) | 17:01 |
| Mamarok | kaddi: yes, add this to the sources.list, you will get plenty of error messages for the web sources, but at least you will see the avilable packages on the CD | 17:02 |
| apparle | xsebsx: when you install kubuntu-desktop it automatically gets installed | 17:02 |
| xsebsx | yes | 17:02 |
| xsebsx | i know | 17:02 |
| shadeslayer | and now when i add an activity its smaller than all the other activities | 17:02 |
| xsebsx | how do i get swiftweasel and opera? they don't appear on the list of available programs | 17:02 |
| apparle | xsebsx: goto System settings>desktop>enable desktop effects | 17:03 |
| xsebsx | oh that worked | 17:03 |
| apparle | xsebsx: what's the next step | 17:04 |
| shadeslayer | brb after logging out | 17:04 |
| kaddi | Mamarok it's actually worse now. lol. it no longer lists my wifi-card as disabled, it doesn't list it at all. I'm gonna boot from cd and get the wicd package, hopefully things will work with that one | 17:05 |
| xsebsx | next step is | 17:05 |
| xsebsx | well you see, i recently got a laptop computer, the one i'm on right now, it had vista, i set up the router i bought a cisco wireless router on it while it had vista, then i installed ubuntu and wiped vista away, then i plugged the network cable to my pc which has ubuntu, and when i log onto gnome i can actuallly log onto the wireless connection by just entering the security password which is all i remember from setting up the router before i wiped vis | 17:06 |
| xsebsx | ta out | 17:06 |
| xsebsx | but on kde i can't log onto the internet | 17:07 |
| xsebsx | for some reason | 17:07 |
| BluesKaj | !info wicd | 17:08 |

| BluesKaj | wicd works for ethernet and wifi | 17:09 |
| apparle | can kopete work with port 443 for Gtalk | 17:09 |
| xsebsx | sudo aptitude install wicd? | 17:09 |
| apparle | xsebsx: sudo apt-get install wicd | 17:11 |
| xsebsx | getting it | 17:11 |
| bittin | how do i load a firmwire in Linux? | 17:12 |
| apparle | xsebsx: no need to type unneccessary statements............you are flooding the channel :) | 17:12 |
| robin0800 | bittin: firmware for what? | 17:13 |
| bittin | a dvb-t tv thing | 17:14 |
| robin0800 | bittin: perhaps from an internet page | 17:15 |
| KelloggsFrosties | moinmoin! as a former gnome-user, i am missing a tool to search and maintain pgp-keys. is there something like seahorse for kde? | 17:15 |
| bittin | i find the firmwire and moved it to /lib/firmware/ | 17:15 |
| apparle | If I install kubuntu via windows wubi then will the fstab entries for other partitions need to be modified | 17:15 |
| robin0800 | bittin: I usualy use windows for firmware updates | 17:17 |
| xsebsx | ok that worked | 17:17 |
| xsebsx | now, kde4 is confusing | 17:17 |
| kaddi | boot from CD isn't working. :/ Anyone here can tell me where I can get a download of WICD for Intrepid? I can't connect to the internet with my intrepid installation | 17:17 |
| bittin | robin0800: ah ok | 17:18 |
| xsebsx | there's some weird thing on my desktop, transparent blue that has the trash adn home folder linked on it | 17:18 |
| === fophillipse is now known as fophillips | ||
| apparle | kaddi: wicd package is not present for intrepid............ | 17:20 |
| kaddi | apparle it is, if you add apt.wicd.net to your sources. However, as I don't have internet, that's of no help to me right now. :/ And the sourceforge page for downloads, only shows how to add the rep to sources.list .. the only alternative is to build wicd from source, which I would like to avoid, as I am unsure if I have all compulers necessary installed on that system | 17:21 |
| apparle | xsebsx: Actually its folderview widget which shows you your dektop | 17:21 |
| xsebsx | ok | 17:21 |
| shadeslayer | xsebsx: lol | 17:21 |
| shadeslayer | weird blue thing :P | 17:22 |
| xsebsx | how do i set up the visual effects on kde4? | 17:22 |
| xsebsx | this is allv ery odd | 17:22 |
| xsebsx | last time i used kubuntu it didnt look like this | 17:22 |
| apparle | kaddi I'll check | 17:22 |
| shadeslayer | xsebsx: K > system settings > Desktop > enable desktop effects | 17:22 |
| shadeslayer | xsebsx: its matured while you werent looking :P | 17:22 |
| xsebsx | er...k...and i cant see system settings | 17:22 |
| xsebsx | oh wwait | 17:23 |
| shadeslayer | hmm,kpackagekit is uses gksu to ask for my password even though gksu is not installed :o | 17:24 |
| === BluesKaj_ is now known as BluesKaj | ||
| xsebsx | ok, it seems like i have to pick and choose what i like for effects one by one eventhough i've never seen what these are, this will be interesting | 17:25 |
| shadeslayer | xsebsx: you betcha | 17:25 |
| shadeslayer | xsebsx: the best ones imho are the cube and the flip switch effects | 17:25 |
| === kaddi_ is now known as kaddi | ||
| xsebsx | cube? isn't that for when you have multiple....like when you have several different OS's on a machine | 17:26 |
| shadeslayer | xsebsx: multiple desktops,not OS's | 17:26 |
| BluesKaj | different apps or desktops | 17:26 |
| shadeslayer | xsebsx: you can also tie "activities" to each desktop,thereby enabling you to have different widgets on each desktop :) | 17:28 |
| xsebsx | shadeslayer: the desktop cube? | 17:28 |
| shadeslayer | xsebsx: in 4.3 you just zoom out > configure plasma > check the 2 boxes and zoom back in | 17:29 |
| xsebsx | i didnt get that _( | 17:30 |
| xsebsx | DEsktop cube: display every virtual desktop on a cube? | 17:31 |
| Mamarok | xsebsx: there is a cashew shaped icon in the upper right corner where you can zoom out, then add activities | 17:31 |
| Mamarok | on a side of a cube | 17:31 |
| kaddi | ok, got some version of wicd from the sourceforge site (1.5.2, as I saw it mentioned in a intrepid related post) and installed it. Now internet is back :) | 17:31 |
| Mamarok | kaddi: nice :) | 17:31 |
| apparle | kaddi: I found the solution to your problem......... use this link http://apt.wicd.net/pool/extras/w/wicd/wicd_1.6.2-2_all.deb | 17:32 |
| shadeslayer | Mamarok: btw,i cant seem to reduce the no. of activities to 4 with the 2 options checked in configure plasma....there are always 5 activities | 17:32 |
| xsebsx | Mamarok: add widgets, lock widgets, appearance settings hide dashboard, | 17:32 |
| kaddi | apparle thanks :) but see my previous message ;) Managed to find the debs after all :) | 17:33 |
| Mamarok | xsebsx: which KDE 4 version do you use? | 17:34 |
| apparle | kaddi: As you see the link I put............its 1.6.2 and also from official repo of wicd | 17:34 |
| xsebsx | how can i check that? i simply had installed kubuntu-desktop and it seems like tis a 4 and up | 17:34 |
| apparle | kaddi: good....your problem solved :) | 17:34 |
| Mamarok | xsebsx: if you go to dolphin for example, in the Help menu -> About KDE | 17:35 |
| BluesKaj | any kde app/help | 17:35 |
| Mamarok | xsebsx: but if you have a basic Kubuntu 9.04 installation it is 4.2.2 | 17:36 |
| xsebsx | (KDE 4.2.2) | 17:36 |
| Mamarok | yep, that's what I just said :) | 17:36 |
| xsebsx | is there something better than it? | 17:36 |
| Mamarok | the activities show up there normally | 17:36 |
| Mamarok | xsebsx: see the /topic: there is KDE 4.3, verx stable and much better | 17:37 |
| xsebsx | how do i get it? | 17:37 |
| Mamarok | but not 'officially' supported, it will be default in the next release | 17:37 |
| apparle | xsebsx: don't get it now...........its not officially supported | 17:37 |
| Mamarok | xsebsx: see the /topic, please | 17:37 |
| xsebsx | koala? | 17:37 |
| xsebsx | how do i do that? | 17:37 |
| Mamarok | xsebsx: no, there are packages for Jaunty already | 17:37 |
| Mamarok | apparle: please... | 17:38 |
| xsebsx | how do i see the topic? | 17:38 |
| Mamarok | xsebsx: just type /topic | 17:38 |
| xsebsx | oh cool set by riddell | 17:38 |
| xsebsx | i know jonathan riddell | 17:38 |
| Mamarok | also it should be visible in the top line of your IRC client, for all channels | 17:38 |
| xsebsx | i met him in England | 17:38 |
| kaddi | apparle I'm adding the wicd-rep and updating as we speak, so I'll have the latest wicd-release for intrepid very soon :) | 17:39 |
| xsebsx | ok,great, how do i go abotu getting kde 4.3 | 17:39 |
| apparle | kaddi: cool.... | 17:39 |
| Mamarok | xsebsx: for the third time: read the topic :) | 17:39 |
| xsebsx | there are like 9 links there | 17:40 |
| Mamarok | xsebsx: but if you don't know how to add a new source to your sources.list and are not used to Linux, you shouldn't | 17:40 |
| Mamarok | well, read those links then | 17:40 |
| xsebsx | well, i have done it | 17:40 |
| shadeslayer | xsebsx: uh the one which says kde 4.3 backports? | 17:40 |
| * Mamarok shakes head | 17:40 | |
| xsebsx | i remember having added new sources.list, only i did it years ago | 17:40 |
| xsebsx | and i don't remember how | 17:41 |
| * shadeslayer knows how Mamarok feels | 17:41 | |
| Mamarok | xsebsx: well, then you probably shouldn't do it | 17:41 |
| xsebsx | why not? i'm not dumb, i'll do what i have to do | 17:41 |
| Mamarok | dand patiently wait for the next release, it's only a few months away | 17:41 |
| Mamarok | -d | 17:41 |
| xsebsx | ok, so it says deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-ppa/backports/ubuntu jaunty main | 17:42 |
| apparle | xsebsx: Just wait till Oct and you will have the cool 4.3................be patient.......... | 17:42 |
| xsebsx | from what i remember there was a notepad sort of application that you opened through some command like kdesu | 17:42 |
| xsebsx | and then you opened some address that ended in sources.list | 17:42 |
| Mamarok | kedesudo for GUI applications in Kubuntu | 17:42 |
| Mamarok | xsebsx: agai, there is no offical support for it right now, are you sure you want to upgrade? | 17:43 |
| Mamarok | +n | 17:43 |
| xsebsx | yes | 17:43 |
| BluesKaj | xsebsx, best you google-linux sources.list and findout how that works | 17:43 |
| Mamarok | ok, then it's kdesudo kate /etc/apt/sources.list | 17:43 |
| Mamarok | but save that list somewhere else first, before modifying anything | 17:43 |
| kaddi | Mamarok out of curiosity was there always a special command for gui-applications like kdesudo or has that been introduced in one of the more recent releases? The first time I heard of it must have been with intrepid, I think. | 17:44 |
| BluesKaj | Mamarok, enuff spoonfeeding :) | 17:44 |
| apparle | BluesKaj: I agree | 17:44 |
| Mamarok | kaddi: kdesudo is the command for sudo rights with a GUI application, this should only be used when really needed, as is sudo for the command line applications | 17:44 |
| BluesKaj | Mamarok, has a soft heart :) | 17:45 |
| Mamarok | xsebsx: you are on your own there, we told you that, remember? | 17:45 |
| Mamarok | BluesKaj: yes, I know, and I should do a lot of other things right now anyway | 17:45 |
| apparle | kaddi: I used to use 'kdesu' before linux | 17:45 |
| Daro | hope anybody can help me...my mic on skype is not working...but it is working perfectly in audacity....any ideas?? | 17:45 |
| xsebsx | how do you mean you're on your own? i am always on my own, is this to say that you will become unwilling to help me...? | 17:46 |
| shadeslayer | Daro: yeah,change the input to pulse audio | 17:46 |
| Daro | I don't have pulseaudio shadeslayer | 17:46 |
| shadeslayer | Daro: O.0 | 17:46 |
| kaddi | apparle: hehe, ok. I must have missed that info then :D | 17:46 |
| apparle | plz help me setup fstab after wubi install | 17:46 |
| Daro | shadeslayer: they told me, I shouldn't use it with kubuntu | 17:47 |
| shadeslayer | Daro: uh,why not? | 17:47 |
| Daro | in the German kubuntu irc....they told me pulseaudio and kubuntu is evil....and i should purge it | 17:47 |
| apparle | kaddi: Its just that 'kdesudo' earlier 'kdesu' both ask the passord in GUI whereas sudo asks it in CLI | 17:47 |
| xsebsx | Mamarok: so i copy the current sources.list file onto another differently named file just in case? like sources list backup | 17:48 |
| shadeslayer | Daro: you should remove pulseaudio *only* when its not working | 17:48 |
| Daro | it was not working together with skype | 17:48 |
| Daro | I remember...I didn't had sound with pulse @ all | 17:48 |
| kaddi | apparle yes I know, but I've always done my editing with VI. I have been using ubuntu since Dapper and found about kdesudo about a year or 2 ago. I was wondering if that feature was introduced around that time, or if I simply missed that there was a GUI-sudo as well. (Obviously it was the second) | 17:49 |
| shadeslayer | Daro: well change the default input device to whatever other option is available then,worked for me last time i used skype | 17:49 |
| shadeslayer | (with pulse audio) | 17:49 |
| apparle | kaddi: :) Anyways...........what is vi.........I have heard abt it a lot.........but not used it ever | 17:50 |

| k4ever | hi all. i installed kde 4.3 and now i'm having problems with openoffice.org 3.1. when i try to launch an openoffice program (for example impress) i get a dialog box "openoffice.org3 -impress %U" asking me do i trust the program. when i click continue it says that it could not make the program executable and aborts. | 17:52 |
| rapsli | how can I open a digital camera plugin in? | 17:52 |
| rapsli | the window pops open which tells me that is mounted, but in dolphine I don't find the camera | 17:53 |
| shadeslayer | rapsli: have you checked /media/ for the mount ? | 17:53 |
| apparle | !fstab | 17:53 |
| ubottu | The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab and http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions | 17:53 |
| xsebsx | shadeslayer: just update on the terminal or sudo something? | 17:53 |
| rapsli | shadeslayer: yes I did | 17:53 |
| shadeslayer | rapsli: ok have you tried kamera? | 17:54 |
| shadeslayer | !kamera | 17:54 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about kamera | 17:54 |
| apparle | !info kamera | 17:54 |
| ubottu | kamera (source: kdegraphics): digital camera support for KDE 4 applications. In component main, is optional. Version 4:4.2.2-0ubuntu2 (jaunty), package size 85 kB, installed size 284 kB | 17:54 |
| rapsli | Kamera... is this a prog? | 17:54 |
| rapsli | nope. let me try it | 17:54 |
| shadeslayer | xsebsx: open a konsole,then sudo apt-get update;sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 17:54 |
| rapsli | how do i start kamera? | 17:55 |
| apparle | what's the command similar to 'ipconfig' in windows | 17:55 |
| rapsli | ifconfig i believe | 17:55 |
| shadeslayer | rapsli: open system settings > advanced tab > kamera | 17:56 |
| shadeslayer | rapsli: or press alt+F2 > kamera > enter | 17:56 |
| rapsli | Oky, it tells me "canon eos 350D" which is correct | 17:57 |
| rapsli | but, when I hit "test" it tells me there's an error :( | 17:57 |
| rapsli | aha... error is maybe because camera turned off | 17:58 |
| xsebsx | shadeslayer: before i dist-upgrade i thought i'd show you this http://kubuntu.pastebin.ca/1531586 | 17:58 |

| Mamarok | k4ever: well, that's is exactly what you should *not* do, use the provided packages from the Kubuntu repositories | 18:02 |
| xsebsx | Mamarok: http://kubuntu.pastebin.ca/1531590 does that mean ive gotten the gpg keys? | 18:06 |
| webbb | whenever i open synaptic threw avnt window navigator i get a window that says Starting without administrative privileges any ideaa why | 18:06 |
| k4ever | ok, i'll uninstall the packages from openoffice website and use the ones in the repository. i hope that one day we can get kubuntu and linux in general to the point where we can use the developer's packages and not have to always rely on the repos. | 18:06 |
| shadeslayer | xsebsx: yeah | 18:06 |
| webbb | but if i iopen it not in awn it doesnt say that | 18:06 |
| xsebsx | can i do sudo dist-upgrade now shadeslayer? | 18:07 |
| shadeslayer | xsebsx: just update first and see if there are any errors | 18:07 |
| k4ever | ...which is still 3.01 btw when 3.1 has been out for some time | 18:07 |
| Daro | hmmm ich kann im Kmixer kein capture device einstellen.....hat einer ne idee warum? | 18:08 |
| k4ever | also 3.1 works well in gnome and xfce but not kde? | 18:09 |

| xsebsx | done! gonna reboot | 18:51 |
| soumendra | shadeslayer: if you are using ubuntu (which I am using instead of kubuntu), on clicking the network manager applet does the trick. But I want to automate that. Any idea | 18:51 |

| === charles is now known as QuietShaman | ||
| Macheavel | hy | 19:22 |
| Mamarok | xsebsx: you need to install the codecs for KDE: kubuntu-restricted-extras | 19:22 |
| Mamarok | and the default package manager is kpackagekit, which is already installed, you acces it through the system settings | 19:22 |
| Mamarok | also, check the system settings more in depth, you can set pretty muhc everything there, like making Amarok default for your mp3 packages | 19:23 |
| Mamarok | xsebsx: did you install Amarok 2.1.1 from the jaunty-backports yet? | 19:23 |
| Mamarok | because the defautl with Jaunty is 2.0.2 which is pretty old now | 19:23 |
| roconnor | How do I setup the WPA network this hotel under Kubuntu? | 19:25 |

| bipp | Salut tout le monde ! Hello from France. | 19:28 |
| roconnor | I don't have a clue how WPA works under linux | 19:29 |
| Mamarok | xsebsx: open Amarok and go to the help menu, About Amarok | 19:29 |
| xsebsx | i did | 19:29 |
| roconnor | something about wpa_supplicant something? | 19:29 |
| xsebsx | it's version Version 4.3.00 | 19:29 |
| Mamarok | xsebsx: not the KDE version,about Amarok | 19:29 |
| webbb | does anyone in here know how to use magicfolder | 19:29 |
| xsebsx | version 2.1 | 19:30 |
| Mamarok | roconnor: do you have Kubuntu 9.04? Then you should install wicd | 19:30 |
| * Mamarok doesn't even know what magicfolder is | 19:30 | |
| bipp | webbb yes i'm use it | 19:30 |
| Mamarok | xsebsx: ok, then you should activate the jaunty-backports repository, there has been a bugfix release for 2.1 | 19:30 |
| roconnor | Mamarok: hmm, tricky without a network | 19:31 |
| bipp | Hello Sp0tter ! :p | 19:31 |
| Mamarok | roconnor: you are on a network right now | 19:31 |
| Sp0tter | I just did apt-get install kubuntu-desktop over a regular ubuntu desktop install, but now when I try and login it doesn't recognize my pw | 19:31 |
| Sp0tter | if I change sessiontype back to GDM, i can log in | 19:31 |
| xsebsx | great, let's do that, how do i activate the jaunty backports repos, i thought i'd done that in the process of upgrading to kde 4,3 but let me do something | 19:31 |
| Sp0tter | hello bipp! | 19:31 |
| roconnor | I'm on a computer in the hotel lobby | 19:32 |
| Mamarok | xsebsx: in system settings -> Install & remove software, go to the thir option, edit sources a nd activate the unsupported repo | 19:32 |
| Sp0tter | Why would the kde login manager not recognize my system accounts? | 19:32 |
| Sp0tter | i can login fine to gnome or the console | 19:32 |
| bipp | Sorry I don't know why :(. I'm new in GNU/Linux | 19:33 |

| roconnor | Mamarok, I wonder if I can download a .deb file and trasfer it via usb key | 19:34 |
| arya | Hi there, I have little question concerning the apt-get sources list | 19:34 |
| Mamarok | roconnor: you sure can, wait, I tell you the location to download from | 19:34 |
| xsebsx | Mamarok: all third party software boxes are already checked | 19:34 |
| xsebsx | what do i do? | 19:34 |
| roconnor | Mamarok, thanks that will help. I appear to already have all the package dependencies | 19:35 |
| xsebsx | partner, partner and ppa backcodes | 19:35 |
| Mamarok | roconnor: you can get it from here: http://packages.ubuntu.com/jaunty/all/wicd/download | 19:35 |
| Mamarok | xsebsx: not in the third party section, in the updates section | 19:36 |
| Mamarok | jaunty-backports is not third-party | 19:36 |
| arya | I have recently added the kde 4.3ppa to my source list and installed kubuntu-desktop(with kde 4.3) I now want to switch fully from my former environment(Linux Mint Gloria with Gnome) to KDE kubuntu, do I have to edit my source.list in /etc/apt? | 19:36 |
| xsebsx | ok, in the updates section i see three buttons, one that says apply all available updates, refresh and history, do I click on all available updates? | 19:38 |
| xsebsx | Mamarok: | 19:38 |
| Mamarok | arya: I don't know Linux Mint, is it an additional source to the Ubuntu repositories? | 19:38 |
| OMLX | I've installed kubuntu through wubi and my default language is Arabic when I reboot I can't login because the layout is arabic how can change to English keyboard from longin page? | 19:38 |
| Mamarok | xsebsx: what other tabs do you get in the sources editor? | 19:39 |
| Mamarok | arya: if yes, then just remove that repository, else you need to do a fresh install | 19:39 |
| xsebsx | third party,kubuntu software, updates, authentication, statistics | 19:41 |
| xsebsx | Mamarok: | 19:41 |
| Mamarok | xsebsx: in Kubuntu Software? | 19:41 |
| roconnor | Mamarok, trying to get this windows desktop to recognise my USB key ... | 19:41 |
| Mamarok | I never use the GUI package manager, sorry, don't know by heart | 19:41 |
| arya | Mamarok, this is the apt list source http://pastebin.com/m4b106a8 | 19:41 |
| arya | (and thanks for your attention btw) | 19:42 |
| Mamarok | roconnor: if it is a vfat format it should be recognized and be mounted automatically | 19:42 |
| Mamarok | arya: that's fine, remove all the linux Mint packages and make a general update first to get a regular Ubuntu installation, then you can install the kubuntu-desktop package | 19:43 |
| cast_ | Hola | 19:44 |
| xsebsx | on kubuntu software all boxes checked, in this order: canonical supported open source software, community maintained open source software, proprietary drivers for devices, software restricted by copyright or legal issues, source code | 19:44 |
| xsebsx | Mamarok | 19:44 |
| arya | Mamarok, I already have installed kubuntu-desktop, you suggest that I rome those linux mint lines and then update the system to be sure and reinstall the kubuntu-desktop? | 19:44 |
| arya | rome=delete | 19:45 |
| Mamarok | xsebsx: start your lines with my name and type the rest after it, that's easier :) | 19:45 |
| Mamarok | arya: well, I don't know Mint and it is not supported at all by *ubuntu, so I strongly suggest you remove it | 19:45 |
| arya | oke | 19:46 |
| roconnor | Mamarok: Is it sudo dkpg -i <package> ? | 19:46 |
| xsebsx | ok | 19:46 |
| Mamarok | xsebsx: there is somewhere the word backports in brackets, don't you see that? | 19:46 |
| Mamarok | roconnor: yep, on Linux | 19:46 |
| arya | Mamarok, is there any lines that I have to add to my list after removing the linux mint lines? Or is the list complete?(http://pastebin.com/m4b106a8) | 19:46 |
| roconnor | Mamarok, hmm it it says it conflicts with network-manager | 19:47 |
| roconnor | should I remove network-manager? | 19:47 |
| Mamarok | arya: you want to install Kubuntu with KDE 4.3, right? if the Kubuntu-desktop package is already installed, see the repository for KDE 4.3 in the topic of this channel | 19:47 |
| xsebsx | Mamarok: only on third party softwlare theres a box marked as backports ubuntu jaunty main | 19:47 |
| Mamarok | roconnor: of course you need to remove the network-manager, as wicd will replace it | 19:47 |
| arya | Mamarok, I just want to have a healthy system that gets updated and so on.. :) I have installed the kubuntu-desktop package with kde 4.3 :) | 19:48 |
| Mamarok | xsebsx: it is not in the thrid-party stuff, it is an official repository, so it must be in the four package sources from Ubuntu, read all the lines there, it's normally the last one | 19:48 |
| Mamarok | arya: ok, just make sure to remove all the non-needed stuff from Mint as it might cause problems, sudo aptitude safe-upgrade should handle that | 19:49 |
| arya | Mamarok, thank you, I will go and try that command line, brb | 19:50 |
| jonah1980_ | hi does anyone know of an ubuntu jaunty respin with backports included?? | 19:50 |
| Mamarok | arya: you are welcome :) just make sure you have the repositories form the topic link and the gpg key | 19:50 |
| Mamarok | jonah1980_: what do you mean by respin? | 19:51 |
| jonah1980_ | kubuntu i mean, though i did ask in ubuntu channel too but got no reply | 19:51 |
| roconnor | Mamarok: okay, I think wicd is installed now | 19:51 |
| jonah1980_ | Mamarok: a remastered iso that has the backports already in it | 19:51 |
| arya | Mamarok, I have added deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-ppa/backports/ubuntu jaunty main to my sources and already have installed the gpg key | 19:51 |
| Mamarok | jonah1980_: nope, you will have to do by hand, see the topic of the channel | 19:51 |
| Mamarok | jonah1980_: I guess you talk about the backports-PPA, do you? | 19:52 |
| OMLX | hi , I've installed kubuntu through wubi and my default language is Arabic when I reboot I can't login because the layout is arabic how can change to English keyboard from login form | 19:52 |
| jonah1980_ | see my netbook has wrong resolution, no wifi and no ethernet with 9.04, but 9.10 is a bit unstable still, so i could do with the backports installed on 9.04 - but i can't with no internet, once the backports where in my wifi/ethernet would work out of the box... | 19:52 |
| Mamarok | OMLX: sorry, I don't know how to handle Wubi stuff, | 19:52 |
| jonah1980_ | Mamarok: yeah the backports ppa | 19:52 |
| Mamarok | jonah1980_: well, it's all in the topic :) | 19:52 |
| xsebsx | Mamarok: on kubuntu software tab all boxes are checked, they are as following, Canonical supported open source software, community maintained open source software, proprietary drivers for devices, software restricted by copyright or legal issues, source code | 19:52 |
| Mamarok | xsebsx: let me fire up that package manager, I will tell you... | 19:53 |
| jonah1980_ | Mamarok: what's in the topic, sorry not with you? i want an install live cd/iso with backports installed ready, not so you have to download them | 19:53 |
| OMLX | Mamarok: Is there any shortcut to switch between keyboard layouts in kde 4? | 19:53 |
| Mamarok | jonah1980_: there is none, I told you already | 19:53 |
| jonah1980_ | Mamarok: is there anyone that could do me one? i've checked the torrent sites and there's things like super os but nothing with backports in | 19:54 |
| xsebsx | Mamarok: thanks, I'm right here | 19:55 |
| Mamarok | jonah1980_: I can't that's a lot of work, adding that source to an existing kubuntu 9.04 installations is far easier | 19:56 |

| xsebsx | Mamarok: do i check that one? | 19:58 |
| xsebsx | Mamarok: so i check that and close it? | 20:01 |
| Mamarok | xsebsx: yes, then you update the package manager, and search for Amarok | 20:01 |
| Mamarok | xsebsx: select Amarok, the package name is 2:2.1.1mysql5.1.30-0ubuntu1~jaunty1 and install it, then disable the backports again | 20:02 |
| Mamarok | so you only get the latest Amarok and no other software you might not wnat to have | 20:02 |
| msi_ | hello | 20:03 |
| msi_ | could u please help me? | 20:04 |
| Mamarok | !ask | msi_ | 20:04 |
| ubottu | msi_: 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. :-) | 20:04 |
| xsebsx | Mamarok: ok i did that, now how do i update the package manager? | 20:04 |

| === TaMonKein is now known as TMKCodes | ||
| Mamarok | xsebsx: just try to find out yourself, I am sure you can | 20:06 |
| xsebsx | Mamarok: there's software updates, there's a button that says apply all available updates, should i click on that or should i refrain from doing so | 20:06 |
| Mamarok | xsebsx: what do you think? did you read what I told you earlier? | 20:07 |
| xsebsx | well i think yes | 20:07 |
| msi_ | i need to install network printer, but cant do it and i cant find some net-howto tutorial... i have kubuntu 9, i would like to know how protocol is used in home wifi net | 20:07 |
| Mamarok | xsebsx: well, no! | 20:07 |
| xsebsx | but i don't know if that's exactly it | 20:07 |
| Mamarok | xsebsx: do not apply all available updates, just update the sources tree, that is in the same option as where you edited the sources, see the bzuttons at the bottom? | 20:08 |
| xsebsx | see? great that i asked | 20:08 |
| msi_ | or do smb speak slovak/czech? | 20:08 |
| Mamarok | msi_: what would be the lnaguage-code for that language? | 20:09 |
| Mamarok | language* | 20:09 |
| xsebsx | i just clicked on unsupported updates, then closed the dialogue, then it loaded something up and then it did nothing further | 20:09 |
| msi_ | SK/CZ? | 20:10 |
| Mamarok | xsebsx: look at your screenm without doing anything, just go through the available options on the left menu and check if you can find out yourself, it's really not difficult | 20:10 |
| Mamarok | xsebsx: I will not always be around... | 20:10 |
| Mamarok | !sk | msi_ | 20:11 |
| ubottu | msi_: Žiadame slovenských používateľov aby v kanáli #ubuntu hovorili po anglicky. Slovensky a česky sa dohovoríte v #ubuntu-cz. | 20:11 |

| Mamarok | msi_: and I guess the czech one is the same name code, mabe they even have a #kubuntu-cz | 20:11 |
| Mamarok | maybe* | 20:11 |
| xsebsx | Mamarok: i know that! but there's no button at the bottom, just reset and close, and i closed | 20:11 |
| Mamarok | xsebsx: well, then reopen it... | 20:12 |
| xsebsx | just did | 20:12 |
| redleer | how do i make network manager to remember configs i put there? it always forgets those and sets something random so i cant get my wireless modem to work | 20:13 |
| xsebsx | software sources, kubuntu, software, third party software,updates,authentication and statistics tabs | 20:13 |
| Mamarok | xsebsx: please, just read the options there and try to find out for yourself, it's not that difficult... *sigh* | 20:14 |
| Mamarok | and only ask if you really can't find out yourself, no need to read aloud here | 20:14 |
| xsebsx | all i want to know is how to upgrade amarok and make it my default player, once ive done it i wil be able to do it again | 20:15 |
| Mamarok | xsebsx: and you are not supposed to reopen the sources editor... just look around in the software iunstaller and check the options that are there, you already updated the sources... | 20:15 |
| Mamarok | and read what I said earlier, I told you everything already | 20:15 |
| * Mamarok is going to eat now | 20:15 | |
| xsebsx | ok i went and looked for amarok | 20:16 |
| xsebsx | and there's some options, one of them says architecture independent files for amarok | 20:17 |
| msi_ | ou... .no answer there | 20:17 |
| xsebsx | 2:2 | 20:17 |
| ikonia | what's up ? | 20:17 |
| xsebsx | great | 20:19 |
| xsebsx | i think i uninstalled amarok | 20:19 |
| msi_ | so maybe asking again... could somebody help me with instalation of network printer. i am newbie here, maybe its enough to know what protoocol /TCP?/ should i use | 20:19 |
| ikonia | msi_: what type of printer and how do you plan to network it ? | 20:19 |
| xsebsx | *goes and sudo aptitude installs amarok* | 20:20 |
| ikonia | xsebsx: why are you installing it if you've just uninstalled it ? | 20:21 |
| rig | xsebsx was trying to update amarok, not uninstall it :P | 20:22 |
| msi_ | ikonia: i had use that under win, its allready connected to my home - wifi net. computer directly connected with printer is working on win... is that available to do that? | 20:22 |
| luis_ | I need help with virtual box, i got an error: FATAL: Could not read from the boot medium! System Halted, but i already selected my ISO of XP in mount CD/DVD-RW, cannot understand whats happening, someone help me pls | 20:22 |
| ikonia | msi_: ok - so you just want to use cups to connect to a network printer on a tcp ip connection over wirless ? | 20:23 |
| msi_ | ikonia: IP adress and other i certainly know | 20:23 |
| ikonia | luis_: #vbox maybe for virtual box | 20:23 |
| msi_ | ikonia: yes | 20:23 |
| ikonia | msi_: ok - so what type of printer is it ? | 20:23 |
| msi_ | ikonia: HP laserjet 1200 | 20:23 |
| ikonia | msi_: ok so that should be well supported by cups | 20:24 |
| ikonia | !cups | 20:24 |
| ubottu | Printing in Ubuntu is done with cups. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Printers - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsPrinters - http://linuxprinting.org - Printer sharing: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NetworkPrintingFromWindows | 20:24 |
| ikonia | msi_: had a read through any of those ? | 20:24 |
| xsebsx | Mamarok: http://kubuntu.pastebin.ca/1531729 | 20:24 |
| ikonia | xsebsx: what's the problem ? | 20:25 |
| msi_ | ikonia: yes, i have googled, but i installed kubuntu 9 and all papers were about 8 or "older"... i will read that | 20:25 |
| xsebsx | ikonia, i want to have the latest version of amarok installed and set as my default player so that if i click on any mp3 it will open on amarok | 20:26 |
| redleer | my network manager just wont remember settings :/ | 20:27 |
| ikonia | xsebsx: I don't think there is a "latest" package for amarok | 20:27 |
| ikonia | xsebsx: I think there are later versions than the one included in ubuntu, but they are not supported, at best they will be backports from karmic, but as that's not production worthy yet, I doubt it's worth it | 20:27 |
| xsebsx | ok, well it seemed as though it would be helpful to have the latest version | 20:28 |
| ikonia | why ? | 20:28 |
| ikonia | what gives you that ide | 20:28 |
| xsebsx | i don't know, mamarok asked if i had it, that it might not necessrily be the latest because of it being the one that comes with kde 4.3 | 20:29 |
| ikonia | skilled developers have put time in to packaging the best version they see fit for ubuntu 9.04 in terms of compatability and stability, what makes you think you need something different | 20:29 |
| luis_ | I need help with virtual box, i got an error: FATAL: Could not read from the boot medium! System Halted, but i already selected my ISO of XP in mount CD/DVD-RW, cannot understand whats happening, someone help me pls | 20:30 |
| luis_ | no one helps in vbox... | 20:30 |
| xsebsx | i dont know, mamarok made it seem like it might not be bad, i can't even remember all i wanted was to set up amarok as my default plaer so that any mp3 i click on will open on amarok as totem is not playing the mp3s' sound | 20:31 |
| ikonia | luis_: it says it can't read the boot media, have you tested the boot medium ? | 20:31 |
| luis_ | mmm? | 20:31 |
| luis_ | go easy pls, this is the first time i install this... | 20:31 |
| ikonia | luis_: have you tested the boot medium it's complaining is bad ? | 20:31 |
| ikonia | xsebsx: I'd suggest you just set the default player be armarok | 20:32 |
| xsebsx | yes | 20:32 |

| MyUser5I | apparle: Oh - and I tried squid on a different computer too - but actually I am using karmic so maybe they have fixed some bugs which are still there in jaunty | 21:24 |

| MyUser5I | apparle_: Nothing important beside that I am using karmic which may mean some bugs are fixed in arora which are still there in jaunty | 21:29 |
| el | Some program always creates a folder ~/$HOME, ... what is this? | 21:35 |
| apparle_ | jhutchins: I have not tried coz the download is large | 21:37 |
| waltzingalong | el: a program such as? | 21:38 |
| apparle_ | anyone is good at making DEB files?? | 21:40 |
| el | waltzingalong: I don't know, but if I delete this directory it will get recreated sooner or later, thats why I'm asking. | 21:43 |
| mrcognitive | can anyone tell me why my 64 bit flash is not showing some videos ? | 21:44 |
| waltzingalong | el: seems to be a problem with said script then. guessing, one expects home to point to /home/username but perhaps escaping it incorrectly to wind up at ~ (which also points to home) / $HOME | 21:44 |
| waltzingalong | mrcognitive: some work, some do not? some in flash9 others in flash10? | 21:45 |
| mrcognitive | could this be the reason why i can not access videos on hulu , or did i batch the instalment ? | 21:45 |
| mrcognitive | i installed a 64 bit flash 10 and de installed my 32 bit . | 21:50 |
| mrcognitive | i created a file under .mozilla called plugins and thought that would work | 21:51 |
| waltzingalong | mrcognitive: do you see flash listed in the about:plugins in firefox? | 21:54 |
| waltzingalong | !info flashplugin-nonfree | mrcognitive | 21:55 |
| ubottu | mrcognitive: flashplugin-nonfree (source: flashplugin-nonfree): Adobe Flash Player plugin installer (transitional package). In component multiverse, is optional. Version 10.0.32.18ubuntu0.9.04.1 (jaunty), package size 1 kB, installed size 40 kB (Only available for i386 amd64 lpia) | 21:55 |
| waltzingalong | mrcognitive: i would probably go that route (though just 32bit here) | 21:56 |
| apparle_ | someone plz make a DEB from the source I provide............I have slow connection..........can't download all the dev packages | 21:57 |
| mrcognitive | so i should continue to run the 32 none free ? | 21:57 |
| mrcognitive | at the moment i have it uninstalled , and my plugins are shockwave 9.1.0 and windows flash 10.1.0 | 21:58 |
| mrcognitive | i am good to go when it comes to sources like youtube but not anything else | 22:00 |
| waltzingalong | mrcognitive: but it seems the flashplugin-nonfree would install the 64bit flash plugin for you | 22:00 |
| mrcognitive | thats what i thought . when searching through the SPH i found the snplugin 32 bit uninstalled but did not find a 64 | 22:01 |
| waltzingalong | mrcognitive: and on the other sites, there is just a blank where the flash blob should be? or browser complains about a missing plugin? | 22:02 |
| mrcognitive | the flash pluggin none free was worded as 10.0.1 so it was up to date but i thought something could have been missing | 22:02 |
| mrcognitive | no ... the screen is just gry | 22:02 |
| mrcognitive | grey | 22:02 |
| mrcognitive | where the picture should be | 22:02 |
| waltzingalong | mrcognitive: so it seems that the something claiming to handle the content type (the plugin) is found but maybe it is misconfigured? | 22:05 |
| waltzingalong | mrcognitive: using kubuntu 9.04 (jaunty)? | 22:06 |
| mrcognitive | yeah | 22:06 |
| mrcognitive | i guess i can go into SPM and just reinstall FP-NF , but should i reinstall nsplugin along with it ? | 22:10 |
| waltzingalong | !flashamd64 | 22:11 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about flashamd64 | 22:11 |
| waltzingalong | !flash64 | 22:11 |
| ubottu | You can run Flash, Real, and Java plugins in AMD64 bit computers with Firefox. see the steps to follow at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FirefoxAMD64FlashJava | 22:11 |
| waltzingalong | hm but that shows how to use the 32bit version | 22:12 |
| waltzingalong | mrcognitive: i would remove all of flash then install the package flashplugin-nonfree | 22:13 |
| waltzingalong | mrcognitive: which i am guessing would install the 64bit version of flash v10 | 22:13 |
| mrcognitive | no you are correct . when first checking the SPH there was flash none free 10 but i suspected it to not be working since it was only 32 bit | 22:14 |
| mrcognitive | so i upgraded to the 64 . | 22:14 |
| jonah1980 | hi guys, i have no wireless on jaunty or ethernet. my network controller is ar9285 and ethernet is attansic 1062. i have googled it and i've put the backports repo in and also installed linux-backports-modules-jaunty, so i really can't understand why it's not working, can anyone please help me get it working?? please | 22:15 |
| mrcognitive | i guess i'll just uninstall the 64 and go back to factory | 22:15 |
| waltzingalong | mrcognitive: ok thanks for the update | 22:15 |
| mrcognitive | thanks for the advice waltzingalong | 22:16 |
