I am using the HCL leaptop and the speaker don't mute when I insert headphone [02:41] pls help me [02:42] as far as I know, on most laptops and other audio devices, when you plug in a headset, it phisically throws a switch which turns off the speakers [02:42] ya [02:42] do you hear it out of both? [02:42] yes [02:42] I am hearing both [02:42] does it work correctly in Windows? [02:42] it was fine in windows [02:43] part of the problem is most people do not know how to fix problems they have not seen [02:44] k [02:44] so you know it? [02:44] have you looked at kmix? [02:44] ya [02:44] it doesn't fix that [02:44] does it have multiple outputs listed? [02:44] no [02:44] what sound chip is in the laptop?

[02:46] i am in ubuntu [02:46] not on kubuntu [02:47] noone was replying in ubuntu [02:47] :( [02:47] this is kubuntu. there is probably a similar system settings widget [02:47] no its not where you are saying [02:47] :( [02:48] well, I don't have ubuntu so I can't help you. install kubuntu instead, then come back if you have a problem [02:48] g'day [02:48] i have ask for the cd lets see when it will come [02:49] well will you tell me which is better? [02:49] kubuntu or ubuntu? [02:49] I am new [02:49] First you tell me which religion is better, or which color is better. [02:49] lol [02:49] the best distribution is... [02:49] one you can get help with locally [02:50] if I say anything else I will start a flame war! But, here most people think KDE is better. that is why they are here [02:50] well i don't beleive in god or all religion are just to fight with eachother [02:50] and about the color that depends on nature [02:50] arguing which is better is probably off-topic here [02:51] the question was retorical [02:51] * _3vi1_ is back. [02:51] ok [02:51] I am new at english as well [02:51] :D [02:51] what is retorical? [02:51] That means I am asking a question that I don't really want the answer to. [02:51] ok thanks it addup my vocab [02:52] I asked the question because it is the same as asking if gnome is better than kde [02:52] or which distro of linux is better [02:52] For the most part, all the major ones work and are well supported [02:53] some might work better on one laptop than another, and no, I can't tell you which [02:53] google your laptop model and linux and see what others have found works [02:53] If I want to install gnome also, is it possible with Kubuntu, or would it break things? [02:54] now will you tell me how can i register here permanent [02:54] [07:22] with my nickname? [02:54] [07:23] sorry I got dc [02:54] if you installed ubuntu you should already have gnome [02:54] ya I have gnome [02:55] now I want kubuntu where at least my dad don't hear me while I talking to my GF [02:55] :D [02:55] I think "sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop will give you kubuntu too...anyone? [02:55] can some one help with a disasterious update I have ended with a read only fs [02:55] really? [02:56] codevarun I think so. If it does not work it will not break it. It WILL install a lot of code, though. depending on your speed, start it and take a break [02:56] i have started that [02:56] tried sudo mount -o remount,re / [02:56] 68 mb [02:56] sorry rw / [02:56] will take 2 hours [02:57] ok ediny how can i register here? [02:57] Kovert: how did it end up ro? [02:57] EDinNY crased during update [02:57] is not a valid email address. I am receiving this [02:57] If you type "mount", does it say it is ro or rw? [02:58] sorry codevarun. don't remember. [02:58] kovert, what does "mount" say? what happens when you reboot? [02:59] says (rw,errors=remount-ro) [02:59] codevarun /NickServ [03:00] if it is your root directory, you might want to boot to a live cd and run " fsck -f "on the partition. [03:00] ED tried that from the safe boot [03:00] sorry EDinNY [03:01] not sure you can do that from safe boot. did it complain? [03:01] yes and fixed a bunch of stuff [03:01] is /home a separate partition? [03:02] EDinNY no a folder on sda [03:03] next time you want to make /home a separate partition. /var too. There are reasons for this, but I don't fee like typing them. I like /opt or /usr/local too, but if you are not compiling your own code you probably will not use them [03:03] the reason /home needs to be separate is so that when you re-install, like you might do now, you don't loose your home folders [03:04] EDinNY ok what about this time :-) [03:04] do you have stuff in you home folder? [03:04] EDinNY I dont want to reinstall in other words yes [03:05] you can boot to a live cd, mount your partitoin, and tar up your home dir to another drive or a thumb drive [03:05] EDinNY good point [03:06] You will loose your settings, and not sure about your email and it's settings since I don't know which you use [03:06] EDinNY much rather fix this [03:07] you could use find and cpio to create a COMPLETE backup of your /home [03:07] i am rebooting again under repair mode [03:07] EDinNY to many databases etc [03:07] other than that, I don't have an easy way to do it. next time BACK UP DATA [03:07] oh, you mean mysql? [03:08] yes [03:08] mysql is stored in /var [03:08] if /var was a different partition... [03:08] EDinNY yeah but there must be a way of fixing this [03:09] If it were me... [03:09] what kind of hard drives? scsi or ide or serial? [03:10] ED virtual [03:10] ide [03:10] EDinNYfsck is now clean [03:10] ok! [03:11] so does it boot correctly now? [03:11] EDinNY fixing dkpg now [03:11] since KDE 4.3 was removed from backports, and supposedly 4.3.1 will somehow be made available tomorrow (according to at least one person), but I want to try 4.3/4.3.x right now, what can I do to try it? install from source? [03:12] EDinNY booting [03:12] if it were my mission critical server, I would buy a new ide drive (they are cheap), install in new drive. then move over data from old drive [03:13] EDinNY vmware on a test box [03:13] and when I did the new install I would make sure I used multiple partitons [03:14] That way if you blow away your / partition you don't blow away /home or /var [03:16] Hey guys, in order to print on my universities network printers i need to add an argument to the print command telling it what user I am.

I've looked at the keyboard/mouse settings, and don't see them listed. I want to remap the alt key to the "Windows" key if possible, since I am having problems using some Blender functions [04:03] rav the repository that contains the wicd application has to be included and enabled in your sources.list which is also linked to your package manager for installing applications from the source repositories [04:05] ubuntu: Sorry.

[08:13] hi, ive got an older version of kubuntu, if i add the jaunty package list to my sources.list and do an update, will it just update my packages with the new versions of the packages available or will it update my distribution? [08:13] the reason i ask is that i dont want to move to kde4 and dont want dolphin [09:20] In Kubuntu 9.04, how do I make the PostgreSQL service not start up automatically? I only want it to be started, when I need it. [09:22] sysvconfig, or maybe bum [09:23] they manipulate the symlinks in /etc/rc* [09:25] E:kubuntu-docs: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1 Anyone any idea? [09:26] ignore [09:26] on a ubuntu xfce / kde 4.3 [09:26] did it install okay? [09:26] installed ok except kubuntu docs [09:27] sure? are they not installed? [09:27] one of my machines does that with every single software update. I learned to ignore it, because aside from the message, everything works 100% [09:28] but possibly one of the post-installation scripts really did have an error [09:28] yes, it seems a documentation/help problem [09:29] usr/share/doc/kde/htmle/en/kubuntu' is not a directory: No such file or directory [09:30] usr/share/doc/kde/html/en/kubuntu' is not a directory: No such file or directory [09:30] wonder if creating that directory would solve the problem [09:30] hmm. seems unlikely. did you install the package on its own? or part of a larger install? [09:30] SerR: doubtable [09:32] part of an update , like 15 security updates [09:34] Oh i wanted to ask... There are always 4 blocked upgrades for the system, what are those? [09:36] don't know i'm afraid [09:40] try reinstalling by itself [09:40] as for the four blocked, that be kernel parts [09:40] you can upgrade those from the shell, but only if you know how to setup and use an alternative kernel [09:41] otherwise, leave em alone [09:41] cor: thanks. I think i won't install those. [09:47] can somebody explain what the $ sign at the end of shell prompt is? [09:48] that means you saved some money not using windoze :) [09:49] theadmin: $/# to difference user/root [09:49] Ah, so if i am in root mode i see hash instead of dollar. Got it. [09:49] that's the idea [09:50] It displays name@boxname at the beggining of the line anyway... so i don't quite get what for that is.

[09:57] in terms of stability [09:58] afaik software raid in linux has been fairly stable for years. not fast, though. [09:58] oh thanks i'll check it out. [09:59] there's a good how-to on tldp.org [10:03] Is there any sandbox solution on linux? Like, running applications in a isolated space or something? [10:04] create a user [10:04] huh [10:04] then either switch and login as that user, or just run apps as that user [10:06] all processes will be in their memory space, all caches, prefs, etc, etc will be in their user directory. sounds like a sandbox to me! [10:06] and one with absolutely no trace of your username in it! [10:10] hm... man, i've used Windows too long. Never even came to my mind [10:10] sandboxie, eh? [10:11] in a shell you can just do.. [10:11] su otherusername [10:11] yep [10:11] but it has it's dangers. [10:12] so does waking up! [10:12] You know, like, i don't want ownership of my files changed ;) so i'd better "kdesu name" [10:12] sure. I prefer to entirely switch users. [10:12] ctrl-alt-F7/F8 [10:12] etc. pretty neat [10:13] system starts running pretty slow when more then one session is running. Though, the terminal ones don't affect it much. [10:13] true.

[13:06] both should work [13:07] thanks i did not realize that the AMD Sempron LE-1250 / 2.2 GHz processor was 64 [13:07] why not install amd64? [13:07] does anyone have kubuntu 64 installed? and whats the difference [13:08] 64bit [13:08] if you have lots of RAM, go for 64 [13:08] that is.... sorry [13:08] not that it eats ram, it just makes more sense [13:08] define lots of ram.. more than 2 g? [13:08] more than 3 [13:08] 4GB, if possible [13:09] or if you plan to get that much [13:09] I have 4gb and kubuntu 64 [13:09] yep [13:09] which again, with RAM prices as they are, makes sense [13:10] my reg athalon crapped the mainframe. and i ordered a pc w/ AMD Sempron LE-1250 / 2.2 GHz processor not realizing it was 64 bit [13:10] 64 bit = good [13:10] thank you [13:11] * cuznt orders more ram! [13:18] G'Day folks [13:18] hello :) [13:34] I am running kubuntu 9.04 with kde 4.3.1 out of the ppa repositories. The shutdown and reboot buttons do not work and I don't know why. Of course I can reboot and shutdown with commands in the konsole but i want my system to work properly. Does anyone know the commands how kde executes a reboot or shutdown so that I can analyze the problem? Thanks in advance. [13:36] maximussmalluspenissus [13:41] jackcy, yes that's been a problem for a while after some updates , just use the cmnd line , 'sudo halt' to shut down or 'sudo reboot' to restart [13:44] I hate Dr_Willis [13:45] deeply [13:45] BluesKaj these two I am using now for about a month *g*. I just wanted to find out whats the problem. [13:46] or may favourite, sudo shutdown now [13:47] jackcy, I've asked the same question several times, the answer doesn't seem to have high priority :( [13:47] as well as now, you can set other times. handy [13:47] Help, when I plug my cellphone into my computer through the USB it won't load/mount it [13:48] how can i get it to do so? [13:48] zebaztian: does it not show up in dolphin? [13:48] nope [13:48] that's exactly the problem [13:48] cor , I installed smb4k , works well and to mount all the pcs on our network , I just set it up in the autostart file [13:49] automount that is [13:49] zebaztian: can you pastebin the output of : dmesg | tail just after connecting the phone? [13:49] it says preparing for file transfer and then it acts as though it was already plugged the cell that is not the computer [13:49] ok, I see [13:49] shadeslayer, sure thing pops [13:49] BluesKaj, maybe check mtab, see what it does, replicate it! [13:50] shadeslayer, do you mind a question though? [13:50] assuming it uses it... [13:50] zebaztian: yeah sure [13:50] zebaztian, my motorolla phone driver doesn't work either . I think linux is abit behind the curve in cell /pc integration [13:51] darn! I was trying to forget about having to setup my phone! [13:51] cells work if they are usb-mass-storage devices [13:51] hehe [13:51] mine works perfectly..... [13:52] mine has an irda hurdle to cross [13:52] im getting a BB Storm though.... [13:52] There are also some FUSE modules that work with phones. Does the kernel see it when you plug it in? [13:52] via dongle [13:52] EDinNY: thats what im trying to determine..... [13:52] shadeslayer, the question is the input dmesg | tail gives the out put for...? [13:52] I haven't really tried yet, so, we'll see... [13:52] "sudo tail -f /var/log/messages" in konsole, then plug it in [13:52] BluesKaj, the problem is, my cellphone had already worked a couple times and hten it stopped [13:52] zebaztian: itll show the last messages in dmesg [13:53] EDinNY, there is a GUI log viewer, too! [13:53] shadeslayer, http://pastebin.ca/1550209 [13:54] if you use the GUI log viewer you can do that in THIS distribution. if you know how to use Konsole you can do it in ANY linux distro [13:55] so we both state the obvious. touche! [13:56] zebaztian: ok also pastebin : sudo fdsik -l [13:57] EDinNY, it keeps saying something along the lines o f sep numbers jaunty kernel no additional information [13:57] shadeslayer, no probs [13:58] shadeslayer, http://pastebin.ca/1550215 [13:59] hi, got 4 blcoked updates. linux-headers-generic - 2.6.28.11.15 (i386) | linux-restricted-modules-generic - 2.6.28.11.15 (i386) | linux-generic - 2.6.28.11.15 (i386) and linux-image-generic - 2.6.28.11.15 (i386). what do i have to do??? [14:00] benkinooby: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade [14:00] or nothing, your call [14:01] zebaztian: i dont think your phone is supported by the kernel [14:01] it is [14:01] it had already loaded [14:01] i had to reinstall kubuntu [14:01] that's the thing, then i lost the modification i had done [14:01] and i forgot what it was [14:02] but it had already loaded on jaunty [14:02] shadeslayer: thx! in the internet i right now read "sudo aptitude full-upgrade'". what is the difference? [14:02] it's a SE w595 [14:02] so this time you kept a big text file with every step you took, very clever! [14:02] benkinooby: never tried that....

[15:33] If so where would i get it? [15:34] hello [15:34] i was wondering if somebody knows why cinelerra's repository is not working [15:35] !mysql [15:35] LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+) [15:35] Zeik: ^^ [15:38] Zeik- the packages in 9.04 are all MySQL 5.1. If you specifically need 4.0 for some stupid reason, you'd have to either use an old version of Ubuntu or compile from source [15:47] I am currently running 8.10. [15:47] Can't run 9 due to problems with the Intel chipset. [15:49] 8.10 uses MySQL 5.0 [15:49] There still won't be 4.0 packages [15:50] From what I can see in the packages list, MySQL 4.0 hasn't been in Ubuntu in at least 4 years === ^KEY_FOUND^_ is now known as alex179ohm === ManOfMilk is now known as Milk|Gone [15:51] Of course, if you have something that doesn't work with any version of MySQL newer than 4.0, you have other problems anyway [15:54] Yeah, i was just looking at that.

[16:49] gorgonizer: the version is 3.1.1 [16:50] are the icons somewhere else? I don't want to change them just use them in kmenu [16:50] what i want to do is to use skype for calling.

I have dual monitors working but I can't get any apps to open on the 2nd one...pretty useless [17:08] MTGap_: I believe the icon you are looking for is /usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/mimetypes/openofficeorg3-oasis-text.png [17:10] yeah that looks pretty close [17:11] the side is more wavy though [17:18] MTGap_: yeah, I noticed the discrepency. on the waviness.. all the icons I can find which are similar to the icon you want have waviness, whereas the icon you want has straight sides.. [17:19] MTGap_: still looking for that icon though... [17:20] wait no I wanted waviness, http://imgur.com/YUXCV.png that one has waviness.

I think they are the last ones.. [17:30] looks a lot like it, I think I'll just use those icons they look better than the other ones. [17:30] thank you very much gorgonizer. I'll be reconfiguring my kmenu with those icons now [17:30] MTGap_: always happy to help where I can :) [17:31] anything good in the updates? [17:34] anyone knows where i can find the tool for adding software in Kubuntu ? i have changed from Ubuntu what i used 2 days. I'm a total virgin in Linux :) [17:35] it's called Kpackage in Kmenu it should be under applications>system [17:37] KpackageKit ? i have found this in the begining. but can it be that there is not so much software like in the Ubuntu one ? [17:37] i mean the third party software [17:38] like teamspeak, or quanta plus [17:39] let me see I'm not familiar with those [17:41] MTGap_: haven't started using 4.3.1 as of yet, waiting for all the updates to be available... still waiting for dedmn and kdeutils...

Can you find them Blagh? [17:44] okay I'm brand new to linux.. I'm trying to install FireFox with KPackageKit... can't seem to find it? [17:44] did you search for firefox? [17:44] no ... cant find it [17:44] It pops up for me.... [17:45] weird.. wonder if I have to set up kpackagekit first or something [17:45] well let's take a look at your software sources [17:45] it's under settings [17:46] then there is a button Edit Software Sources [17:46] okay, I changed from the US server to the 'main server' and now i see it =) [17:46] click it and it should ask for your password [17:46] sorry should have looked before I ran to the chatroom ;-) [17:47] I'm excited though! I was going to put windows 7 on this laptop today and decided to give kubuntu a try instead [17:47] ok glad you got it, but do note that firefox looks like crap in kde because it is built on gtk and not qt [17:48] uhhhh.. i found it... kpackage kit search is not founding "Team" ... but "team" [17:48] ahh okay [17:48] konqueror just seems really slow... could be because im used to Chrome now [17:48] any web developer here ? [17:48] yeah it's rather dumb how it works. Ubuntu is working on a Ubuntu Software Store and that should help things a lot [17:49] I'm a webdeveloper [17:49] there is a chromium project for linux you know and it looks a lot better on kde than firefox [17:49] what editor are you using in linux, i used dreamwiever and notepad++ in win, but now i dont know what i can use [17:50] what is the program called that u can put iso files on my usb stick?

[20:08] nice, know i am connected [20:08] thank you bdgraue, jeiworth, and gizmobay [20:09] seest: if kde is up and running you can simply press alt-f2 and enter adept, otherwise you should find it in the kde-menu in system [20:09] okay ill try that [20:11] there to find in the kmenu? [20:11] moin [20:12] mojn carsten [20:13] Anyone else having a problem with kubuntu freezing 9.04? [20:13] jeiworth: as you can see in the paste from seest the last update/upgrade was icomplete. is it possible to fix this with adept. i am asking because i dont know, i dont use adept :) [20:14] seest: the kmenu is what the start-menu is in win, its the k-button you see left lower corner [20:14] jeiworth: is adept in the standard jaunty install? seems to be kpackagekit, i dont have installed adept :) [20:15] okay, but in which category shall i look? [20:15] bdgraue: hmm not sure, this has only happened to me once with iirc 7.04 => 7.10 and i preferred straightening that up in the cli, but then again (without wanting to brag) i've been using linux quite a while so for me it was easier that way [20:15] seest: application -> system [20:15] bdgraue, isn't there [20:16] bdgraue: true, they changed it, and man was that a bad decission, i am not happy with that at all so i still use adept ;) [20:16] seest: is there kpackagekit? [20:16] sudo apt-get install adept? [20:16] seest: exactly [20:16] okay yes kpackagekit is there [20:17] jeiworth: kpackagekit is the default gui software management programm in jaunty afaik [20:18] bdgraue: yes [20:18] but either gui, including synaptic if you prefer it, are just frontends for dpkg/apt/aptitude so there is no problem having installed and using both [20:19] okay, don't get this app [20:19] remember, this is linux ;) [20:19] jeiworth: i know :) but sometimes gui isnt that powerful to me :D [20:20] well, for some people it is easier to search and install programs, for things like straightening out a failed dist-upgrade it might not be sufficient [20:30] BluesKaj- you around?

Dunno what the problem is. I'll deal with it some other time [22:04] Dragnslcr, make sure the router is set to braodcast [22:05] Mine wasn't, but even putting in the SSID didn't work. It didn't pick up any other routers either (my router could pick up about 8 others, so I know there are some around) [22:05] BluesKaj: thanks [22:06] any help with my mysqld issue, please?

[23:55] I am trying to create a dvd....I have created the video_ts and audio_ts directories with devede. If I just burn a dvd with those directories, will it work with a standard dvd player? [23:56] Bookman: That's the idea. Devede does not burn it for you or does it only create ISO? [23:58] Dragnslcr, you may need to find alinux driver for that chipset seeing it's 5 yrs old , that could be why there's no response from wicd . It assumes either a working kernel module or a suitable driver for wicd to work.
