gobnutsDWonderly: 9.10 has a kubuntu-netbook-remix version currently Alpha5. Works quite well overall, the plasma-netbook needs more tweaking though00:00
DWonderlyOkay. Ive been thinking about changing over from gnome to KDE00:00

pablozhi guys, anyone knows why may Kate be ignoring my keyword configuration (particularly regarding dead-keys)?00:44
Daskreechdidn't load them?00:48
pablozDaskreech: sorry, not sure I understood the question. In any other kde/whatever app I can press ' and then a to produce á (spanish layout), within kate, I can't00:59
pabloz(it comes as two separate characters: 'a)00:59
Beeppabloz, I've had KDE "forget" the keyboard layout. I get around it by having both EN and ES loaded and "show country flag" option turned on in => System Settings -> Region & Lang > Keyboard01:02
BeepWhen it forgets I just press the flag twice. (Once to go to EN, then again to go back to ES)01:02
pablozactually, I have keyword layouts disabled01:05
pabloz*the* keyword layout is spanish01:05
TD-Linuxpabloz, that's an odd bug, works for me on, err, kde 3.5.10 :P01:08
pablozTD-Linux: do you have keyword layouts enabled in System Settings -> Region & Lang > Keyboard ?01:10
TD-Linuxyeah I switch between US and US International01:10
TD-Linuxboth are in the list01:11
TD-Linuxas I said this is ancient kde though, kubuntu 8.0401:11
pablozok, I guess that's the difference01:11
pablozah01:11
pablozI'm on 9.0401:11
pablozmaybe is http://guido-flohr.net/dell/latitude-e5400/keyboard.html#keyboard_kde_qt ?01:15
pabloz"""Setting the environment variables LANG and LC_ALL to "en_US.UTF-8" (or any other utf-8 locale (...)) fixed the problem"""01:17
pablozmaybe that's what the keyword layout setting option does directly or as a side-effect? (assuming that would make kate follow the system configuration)01:18

what_ifI am having a problem where a blacklisted module (evbug) is beibng loaded even though the module is blacklisted. What would cause this behavior ?02:14
pair0docdoes another module depend on it? just a guess, I have never had to blacklist a module.02:15
what_ifno modules depend on it. It is more a developer tool02:16
what_ifthis module is blacklisted by default, I did not blacklist it02:16

Guest30259but my poor heads got a sore spot on it from beating it into the desk03:31
GS3User007i'm going on year two or so of mostly linux myself... let's see if we can't help you out03:31
Korliswhat up people03:31
GS3User007Korlis: Guest30259 is new, we're going to help him03:32
Korliswhat seems to be the issue?03:32
GS3User007Korlis: he hasn't asked anything yet though03:32
Korlisoh03:33
Korlishey, has anyone had any success with Rosetta Stone in Wine? I can get it running easily enough, but it won't detect my analog mic03:33
Guest30259someone told me that the best way to start learning linux was to start off with a project.... so my project is this to take my 16gig usb thumbdrive.... put ubuntu ISO onto it so i can boot into it live and have xp.iso and vista/7.isos along with a few other utilities03:33
Guest30259i have read and read and grub 2 seems to be able to do this03:34
KorlisGrub two could do it03:34
Korlisim sticking with the 1.x for now though, not a big fan of the read only grub.cfg03:34
Guest30259*greek*03:34
bemlindoAgum br por aqui?03:34
Korlissorry03:35
bemlindohi people03:35
GS3User007Guest30259: well that project is way beyond me... good luck03:35
Korlisthough with 16 gigs, you might have a hard time fitting 3 operating systems on it with your applications03:35
geniibemlindo: Brasil?03:35
Guest30259? there not that big of isos?03:35
bemlindosim03:36
bemlindosim03:36
bemlindovc tbm?03:36
Korlisthe isos are compacted, they expand when you unpack them so they'll boot03:36
Guest30259that doesnt happen in ram?03:37
Korliscan't think of the right terminology right now, sorry03:37
Guest30259and how is it possible on a cd then where its read only03:37
Korlison a live cd it does, but you're talking about installing them on the drive, not booting into a live usb environment03:37
Korlisor so i thought03:38
Guest30259no no no03:38
Guest30259live03:38
Guest30259but installing xp/vista03:38
Guest30259but the other utilities will be live iso03:38
bemlindogenii: vc tA Ai?03:39
Korlismy advice, if you're just starting out would be to keep windows on your hard drive, and just install SUPEROS on the usb03:39
geniiThe main prob is that an .iso file is for CD and when you try to boot for instance an iso9660 filesystem from hard drive, needs messing around with03:39
genii!br | bemlindo03:39
ubottubemlindo: Por favor, use #ubuntu-br para ajuda em português. Obrigado.03:39
bemlindogenii: isso mesmo03:39
Korlisif you install windows on the USB you will only be able to boot to one computer03:39
pair0docin a live cd everything happens in ram. that is what I think he is asking.03:40

Korlisyeah03:45
Korliswell03:45
Korlisi mean, there is a graphical way, Adept will do that03:45

Korlispretty cool spider04:05
Spider21thats SORTA what i want to accomplish04:06
Spider21i think i could bump my way threw it if i could only figure out how to install Grub 1.96 onto my damn usb key04:07
Spider21aka grub2*04:07
Spider21i figured out how to upgrade my kubuntu box from grub legacy to grub2 but no such luck actually installing it to the usb key its self04:08
Spider21also whats the best irc client to use when im on my windoze box?04:09
Korlisyou could install windows on it first, then make an iso with all the apps you want on it using remastersys, and since you have grub2 installed on your box remastersys will install with grub204:10
GS3User007Spider21: i use kvirc04:10
Korlisdont ask me, last windows i used was 2000, now the ony time i touch windows is to fix computers04:11
Spider21lol04:11
Spider21korlis why am i installing windows on my usbkey?04:12
Korlisi dont know, i thought you said you were04:12
Korlisam i missing something04:12
Spider21i think im still miss communicating04:12
Korlisim probably mis interpreting04:13
Korlisi think im gonna start a LUG04:14
Spider21ok right now i have cd.1 for running ubuntu live i can also install from it clearly cd2 is kubuntu cuz im not sure what one i like better lol, i also use either of them for fixing windows boxes, cd3 is a copy of windows xp for when i reformat someones pc cd4. is vista it would be awesome if i could take all these isos that i used to burn all these cds and boot to a usb key and have them all listed on there04:15
Korlisoh, ok, so you want to take all the iso's, put them on a usb key and have a menu to where you can choose which one to load04:16
Spider21bingo04:17
Spider21along with still using it for storage if needed but not a must04:17

Spider21204:20
Korlisi dont think so04:21
Korlisbut does it matter?04:21
Spider21Bah... it didnt look like it lol well it doesnt matter but im trying to be difficult and learn something at the same time04:22
Korlisthe second link is easier04:22
Korlisi started with Debian, kinda dove in head first with woody04:22
Korlisthen went to kubuntu feisty, on this pc, been dist-upgrading since then, once kde4.x came out i didn't like it, so apt-get install ubuntu-desktop04:23
Korlisnow im with gnome, with a million unused libraries lying around that i never bothered to clean up04:23
Spider21haha is there anything hurt from having kde and gnome on the same box04:24
Korlisno04:24
Spider21and kubuntu and ubuntu is deb based isnt it?04:24
Korlisyeah, thats why i use it04:24
Korlisdebian was my first love04:24
Spider21lol i hear debian is the way to go so i chose the ever so popular k/ubuntu04:25
Korlisyou heard right, at least imo. though redhat's certification is certainly popular in the workplace04:26
Spider21imo?04:26
Korlisim my opinion04:26
Spider21duh04:26
Spider21i knew thats what that meant04:26
Korlislol04:26
saebbihello. i recently installed kubuntu 9.04 after having used 7.04 for almost 2 years04:27
Spider21whats this suse craze i also hear about maybe im useing the wrong term here but it seams to be more of a "hacker" distro04:27
Korlisi much prefer apt over rpm, and Debian's repo's are larger than redhat's and Fedora's, though Fedora does KDE better than Kubuntu04:28
Spider21using*04:28
saebbii'm experiencing trouble with the sound. i do get sound for all applications, but it sounds very bad04:28
saebbilike an old record04:28
Korlisnah, gentoo, or LFS would be hacker distros04:28
saebbiwhen i googled, i found that ubuntu 9.04 users tend to have problems with their sound because of pulse audio, and disabling it solves the problems04:29
Korlisyou could try using alsa instead04:29
saebbicool.. or so i thought.. but then i read that in kubuntu pulse audio isn't even activated04:29
ScottKsaebbi: No pulseaudio on Kubuntu.04:29
saebbiin fact, kubuntu users install pulseaudio because they WANT to use it.. as opposed to ubuntu users04:29
Korlisdoes kubuntu use OSS?04:29
saebbinow i'm confused ;)04:29
saebbiso.. should i install pulse audio and hope it will fix my sound problem? or are there other things i could try?04:30
Korlisso try installing pulse, see if that works, can't hurt04:30
Spider21is his audio problem soundcard specific? my sound works fine04:31
saebbiwell, my sound worked fine with kubuntu 7.04 on that very same computer04:31
Spider21hummm04:31
Korlismy soudn worked fine when i first switched to kubuntu with feisty04:31
Spider21something someone *fixed* hu? lol04:32
saebbilol04:32
Korlisi have pulse though04:32
saebbikorlis, any problems?04:32
Korlisseriously, ive heard horror stories with pulse, but its always been perfect for me04:32
saebbii find it funny that all the ubuntu users have problems with pulse04:32
Korlisi have a realtek sound card04:32
saebbiand kubuntu users install it by choice04:33
saebbiwell, i'll just try it.. as you said, it can't hurt04:33
Korlisive been an ubuntu user since kde 4.x came out, and it still don't cause me problems04:33
Scunizisaebbi: pulse is new and has tons of potential.. it will eventually be good.. but until then it's somewhat problemmatic04:33
saebbiyea04:33
Spider21*goes to read about wtf pulse is*04:34
saebbiit does have a LOT of potential04:34
Korlisi personally like pulse04:34
saebbii really like what i could do with it (if i got it to work)04:34
saebbipulse server on one computer with a nice sound system, and pulse clients on all of my linux and win boxes04:35

ShdwdrgnI'm assuming that wine not detecting the blank discs has something to do with the automounter not working, but I'm not even sure what the name of the automounter was that was used in 8.0.404:45

Korlisive actually never used vlc server04:57
Spider21and to answer your question korlis i have tried viewing the linux box with real vnc and tight vnc as well04:57
Scunizinaw.. I've just played with lots of programs .. mainly because I don't program .. always looking for a better way to skin a cat :)04:57
Korlisi learned python, wrote a bunch of stuff, then got tired of the resources it uses with large programs, so i stopped, i might learn C++ or some other compiled language when i have the will to04:59
Korlisbut right now, ive no desire, i got Rosetta Stone, and am going to learn Japanese04:59
Spider21i cant confirm this but i want to say linux to linux vnc works fine....04:59
Spider21figures04:59
Korliswell, i do know that X sometimes has problems over a VNC connection, ive experienced them, freenx works much better, but is not available for windows05:02
Spider21when i connect to my self from kubuntu to kubuntu with the build in remote desktop vnc client works fine05:03
Korlishmm, looking at my last comment, that wasn't helpful at all05:03
Korlisgo ahead, strike me down05:04
Spider21haha no its fine... lol05:04
Korlisi deserve it05:04
Spider21helpfull no but atleast im not crazy05:04
Spider21someone else has had the problem too05:05
* Korlis says "Hey, here's this great program that I use all the time, works flawlessly. However, you can't use it for what you want, nananananana!"05:05
Korlisleast thats how i came across to myself05:06
TD-Linuxyou can also tunnel X via putty + xming05:06
TD-Linuxfreenx is an improved version of that05:07
Spider21from windoze05:07
Spider21here is my idea to run my linux box headless down stairs in my server rack05:08
Spider21airconditioned server rack :)05:08
zadumaHey everyone, I was wondering if someone could help me with a problem I can't find a solution too. (perhaps my google-fu is failing me) Anyways, just got done installing kubuntu, restarted and my computer booted into windows... I have 2 hard drives, I thought I installed over windows, but obviously I did not, so my question is. How do I get it to boot into linux, not a dual boot, just a straight boot.05:09
Korlisif its headless you can jsut sftp or ssh into it to move around files or whatever you want05:09
Spider21... lol u could i couldnt *yet* bassically i want to run it as i would in virtualbox but it not being virtual05:10
TD-LinuxSpider21, there are also two different ways for vnc05:10
TD-Linuxyou can use x11vnc for the current session05:11
TD-Linuxor you can login to new session with the traditional vnc server05:11
Spider21*very new to linux*05:11
TD-LinuxGUIs are nice :)05:11
TD-LinuxI'm going to bed now05:11
TD-Linuxask me tomorrow :P05:11
Korlisnight TD05:11
Scunizizaduma: sounds like grub got installed on the wrong drive.. switch the drive order in your bios and see if that fixes it.05:11
Spider21lol night05:11
TD-Linuxor ask someone else how to use the X vnc server :) I used it as well as x11vnc for my ancient athlon server over LAN and it worked nicely :)05:12
Korlisi think im gonna go to bed too, my fingers are outpacing my brain, and im not a fast typer05:12
TD-Linuxx vnc server for full headless05:12
TD-Linuxx11vnc when I was doing work on the actual machine as well05:12
zadumascunizi: thanks i'll try that now, seems so simple now ill come back to let you know05:12
Spider21so dont use the "built in" vnc server in kubuntu05:13
Korlissee you all later05:13
Spider21cya korlis thanks for the help05:13
Korlismeh, i gave very little help, i might be of more help when im fully awake, maybe05:13
Korlisbig maybe05:14
Korlisanyway, see ya later05:14
Spider21ill pick your brain later ;)05:14
zadumaHey everyone, I'm back that solution did not work, seeing as I can not just change which hard drive is first on boot order in my bios.05:17
Scunizizaduma: the other solution is to put grub on the other drive.05:17
Scunizi!grub | zaduma05:18
ubottuzaduma: GRUB is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto05:18
zadumaScunizi: what will happen if i later reformat the drive (because it has windows on it and i want to use it for storage only) will grub be lost?05:19
Spider21oops ok im back05:19
Scunizizaduma: perhaps  but grub can be installed where ever.. anther thing you might try is to switch the positions of the drive cables on the motherboard..05:21
Scunizizaduma: is one sata and the other ide?05:21
zadumaScunizi: Yes one is ide and one is sata05:22
zadumaScunizi: Also, i'd rather just have to install grub again later then open up my case... to lazy for that ;)05:22
Scunizizaduma: I've had this issue.. drove me nuts.. I ended up installing grub on all my drives.05:22

Scunizinavetz: flash is problemmatic05:24
navetzScunizi: it was working fine before i went from 8.04 to 9.0405:25
Spider21scunizi: how would i go about installing grub2 onto a usb key05:25
Scunizinavetz: when you did that did flash also get upgraded?05:25

ebovineI have a wireless network at the office that doesn't broadcast its SSID and the Jaunty network manager doesn't seem to let me say "hey, connect to this saved network *here*".  Am I missing something?14:30
ebovineIt will let me type in the network name, but then it creates a new network with that same SSID instead of trying the existing one.14:31
brennanhey Blues it said this "sudo aptitude install libxine1-ffmpegSorry, try again.14:31
pepe___hello14:32
mathaving problems with amarok no music runs14:33
brennanya14:34
mattried configuring the multimedia tried many things14:34
BluesKajebovine, you'll need to configure the dhclient ,and the router IP and pw and then on the router configure it to accept your pc IP address for starters ,14:34
matdke 4.3.114:34
Mamarokmat: why version?14:34
matkde 4.3.1 on kubuntu14:34
MamarokI meant which Amarok version :)14:34
matoh ! wait a sec14:35
mat2.114:35
brennani got 2.0.214:35
Mamarokmat: make sure you use the xine backend and have libxine1-ffmpeg installed14:36
ebovineBluesKaj: It will connect just fine if I create a new network with the SSID and shared key.  DHCP and everything else is working.  The only issue I have is reconnecting the next day to the wireless network that I saved yesterday.14:36
mati'll check that thanks14:36
Mamarokbrennan: 2.1.1 is in the jaunty-backports repository14:36
frederickhello, someone got xmacro or xnee on his kubuntu 9.04?14:36
BluesKajebovine, network manager doesn't save your settings ?14:37
Mamarokfrederick: that is a strange question, what problem do you have exactly?14:37
matMamarok: i already got it installed14:37
brennanwhat does that mean?14:38
frederickwell, i wanted to know if there is an issue with xnee of 9.04, and how i can let record xmacro?14:38
ebovineBluesKaj: Yeah, it saves it.  But it never tries to re-use it and I can't find a way to manually tell it to try a specific saved network.  Network manager works like a champ for my networks that do broadcast their SSID.14:38
brennanWhat does jaunty-backports mean?14:38
Mamarokbrennan: that is the repository where newer versions are backported to, you can activate it in the sources14:38
matbrennan: its the repo to install new software after the freeze14:38
galvaoso, am I alone on this one? =/14:39
Mamarokgalvao: I don't have an iPhone, sorry, also mounting highly proprietary devices like that one are always tricky14:40
brennanso what do i gotta type in bash14:40
Mamarokbrennan: I guess you have KDE 4.2.2, right? Are you familiar with editing sources?14:40
matMamarok: i'll try to get the kubuntu 9.10 and test it and see about amarok 2.1 maybe the problem is with jaunty, thx for your time anyway14:41
Mamarokmat: wait14:41
brennanunfamiliar14:41
Mamarokmat: I bet you have pulseaudio installed...14:41
BluesKajbummer ebovine , I haven't encountered this problem before , so it's new to me . Maybe wicd would do a better job of at least manually connecting , if not auto , dunno for sure14:41
matyes i do14:41
matMamarok: i do have pulse audio14:41
Mamarokmat: get rid of it, that's the cause of your problems14:42
brennanim not sure what kind of ver. i got?14:42
ebovineBluesKaj: wicd was my next option.  :)  Thanks.14:42
matMamarok: thx a lot mate i'll do that14:42
Mamarokmat: remove pulseaudio, set the phonon backend to xine, remove ~/.kde/share/config/phonondevicesrc and restart KDE14:42
Mamarokthat should do the trick14:42
BluesKajebovine, give wicd a try , we'll be here to help when you get it installed14:42
matbig thx14:43
Mamarokbrennan: if you didn't add sources since you installed Kubuntu 9.04, then you have 4.2.214:43
ebovineBluesKaj: Anticipating that wicd is going to give me troubles?14:43
BluesKajebovine, warning , wicd will replace your existing network manager14:43
brennanhow do i add sources14:43
Mamarokbrennan: well, by editing the sources.list, but you need to make sure not to make any typos14:44
BluesKajebovine, wicd is successful in most cases , but there are some that are inexplicably not working with it14:44
ebovineBluesKaj: What the package name to get the original network manager back if wicd fails.14:44
Mamarokbrennan: first, type 'sudo cp /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.save14:44
Mamarokwithout the '14:44
Mamarokso you have a copy of the sources.list if something goes wrong14:45
galvaoMamarok: Well, thanks for responding =)14:46

Mamarokbrennan: the important part to look for is the 'jaunty-backports' one, I typed the source I have as I am on a Swiss mirror14:51
Mamarokdo you have such a line?14:52
panos4ever_i have installed the mx440 nvidia drivers but playonlinux tells me that i havent installed 3d drivers.i tried everything so what of it?what am i missing?14:52
Mamarokpanos4ever_: you also have to actually run X with that driver, try looking in the hardware drivers (in the menu System -> Hardware drivers)14:53

panos4ever_thats on mamarok14:54
Mamarokbrennan: you have that line with jaunty backports?14:54

blake__To build Wine properly, you may need to install a bunch of libraries.15:21
blake__For Ubuntu, Fedora, SuSE, and OpenSolaris, the easiest way to do this is to download and run http://winezeug.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/install-wine-deps.sh as root (e.g. with sudo). Try running that before reading the rest of this page.15:21
blake__do i run that in the konsole?15:21
Mamarokblake__: what are you doing?15:21

Mamarokthank you, brennan, let me have a look at that15:23
brennankoo15:24
brennani had my uncle look and i dont think he knows too much about computers15:24
Mamarokbrennan: see in line 38: the # sign is still there, you need to remove that to activate the backports15:24
Mamarokbrennan: do you remember the instructions I gave you earlier?15:25
brennani can find them15:25
Mamarokbrennan: you need to edit the sources.list with 'kdesudo kate /etc/apt/sources.list'15:27
Mamarokremove that # sing in front of that line, save the file, then run sudo apt-get update again, then you can install Amarok 2.1.115:28
blake__#winehq15:28
Mamarokblake__: type /join #winehq15:29
brennanok should i remove the space after15:30
Mamarokyes, just remove # and the space, too15:31
brennan+ what about line 3915:31
slow-motionhi15:31
brennanMamarok: what about line 3915:32
Mamarokbrennan: no, you don't need the sources, unless you are a developer15:32
Mamarokthe deb-src line only gives you the sources, not the packages15:33
brennanok15:33
brennancool15:33
brennannow what i closed kate15:34
Mamarokand you saved the file, right?15:35
Mamarokthen you can run sudo apt-get update15:35
Mamarokthen sudo apt-get install amarok15:35
Mamarokthat should install the newer version15:35
Mamarokyou will have to rescan the database, as there was a database change betweeen 2.0 and 2.115:36
Mamarokbut normally it should be triggered automatically15:37
brennanit told me invalid opertion install15:40
brennanhow do i rescan the detabase15:40
Mamarokbrennan: sudo apt-get install amarok ?15:40
Mamarokthe certainly works15:40
Mamarokbrennan: just let amarok do that, it should be automated15:41
brennank its working15:41
Mamaroknice15:41
brennanya15:41
Mamarokbrennan: while you are at it, check also if you have kubuntu-restricted-extras installed15:42
Mamarokjust type sudo apt-get install kubuntu-restricted-extras it should tell you if it's already there15:42
ebovineWell, I have wicd installed and it scans the networks fine but for some reason when I try to connect to my wireless network it just hang with "Validating authentication..."15:43

brennansould i wait till this extras gets dont15:52
brennanwould that even matter15:52
Mamarokbrennan: well, yes, once these packages are installed, just restart Amarok15:54
Mamarokbecause those ship the codecs you need for mp3 playback and such15:54
brennanYESSS15:54

chiragoriginal xp user. started dual boot with kubuntu which some how crashed. xp was working fine. removed kubuntu and installed opensue.16:10
chiragmean while windows crashed. opensuse followed.16:11
Mamarokchirag: stop16:11
chiragreinstalled kubuntu 8.1 i guess16:11
Mamarokyou don't tell us what crashed16:11
Mamarokand reinstalling and switching all the time is hardly a good way to solve things :)16:11
chiragthere are too many partitions which i want to remove16:12
Mamarokchirag: you can remove partitions only iif those are not mounted, and a precise plan what is located where to make sure things don't get messed up16:13
Mamarokalso, get yourself a working live CD, that's needed16:13
chiraghave one16:13
Mamarokyou just said you couldn't run it16:13
chirag8.416:13
Mamarokchirag: 8.04 you mean16:14
chirag9.04 is not working16:14
chiragyes16:14
Mamarokthat doesn't matter, for partitioning you can do this with every version, even much older ones16:14
chiragwhat do i do now?16:15
Mamarokchirag: hm, I haven't done that in a while, I need to reread the docs for that16:15
chiragok.16:16
chiragmy bad luck may be16:16
Mamarokchirag: no, as you are online, you can also read that:16:16

=== Silver is now known as Guest20029
frederickhello again,16:23
frederickMamarok: I followed your steps for the sound problem... no solution...16:24
rockprincesshello16:24
Mamarokfrederick: and you have the necessary codecs installed?16:24
Mamarokfrederick: also check the systemsettings -> multimedia if everything is set correctly, using the xine backend16:25
frederickMamarok:  is Xine, and what codec i need? i can't remember of deleting any codec...16:26
Mamarokfrederick: just install kubuntu-restricted-extras, that should install all the needed ones16:27
chiragANY PARTITION EXPERT... need some time of yours pls...16:27
frederickMamarok: was already installed...16:27
BluesKajchirag, dunno exactly what your partitoning issue is but GParted is a great partition editor . Read the documentation with it first and I'm sure you'll figure out how to solve your problem.16:27
frederickMamarok: deinterlace method in backend is 'use_vo_driver', is that correct?16:28
Mamarokfrederick: I have not a clue what you are talking about :)16:28
Mamarokjust make sure you use xine, and that you don't have pulseaudio on top somewhere16:28
Mamarokalso, check that nothing is muted in kmix16:29
fredericki don't... but phonon still says that the soundcard doesn't word...16:29
fredericknothing muted :-)16:29
Mamarokfrederick: strange, did you do some alsa configuration yourself?16:29
chiragdoes GParted come as default?16:30
chiragor need to download it?16:30
Mamarokchirag: just check :916:30
Mamarokaptitude show gparted16:30
fredericknope... the only thing i did was adding some updates from the kubuntu updater... and bang, no more sound...16:30
Mamarokfrederick: what updater?16:31
frederickthe one thats come standard in kubuntu...16:31
chiragcheck in adept?16:31
Mamarokhm, typo, I meant what updates?16:31
BluesKaj!gparted | chirag16:32
ubottuchirag: gparted is a !GTK/!Gnome !GUI partitioning program. Type « sudo apt-get install gparted » in a console to install it - A GParted "live" CD is available at http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php16:32
frederickthats the question, donno anymore... it's a week ago, already a weer searching for the sound problem...16:32
Mamarokfrederick: I haven't seen mayn updates lately in 9.0416:33
chiraggot it. thanks. it works fine with kde as well, right?16:33
frederick3 days ago :-)16:33
MamarokI know, but those were not that many, which KDE do you run?16:33
frederickthe latest, trough the backports...16:33
Mamarokfrederick: which is 4.3.1, same as I have16:34
frederickcan i check that with a command in terminal?16:34
BluesKajchirag, it's a live cd , you boot into it16:34
Mamarokfrederick: check if you have some .asoundconf in your home folder16:34
frederickMamarok: .asoundrc.asoundconf16:35
frederickand i think my kde version is 4.1.1...16:36
Mamarokfrederick: remove that and restart KDE, that might ne the culprit16:36
Mamarokphonon does the configuration without that, this is a relict of pulseaudio I guess16:36
Mamarokbe*16:36
frederickwhere can i see the version of kde?16:37
frederickMamarok: deleting .asoundrc also?16:38
Mamarokfrederick: in any KDE application Help -> About KDE16:38
Mamarokfrederick: yes16:38
Mamarokfrederick: I don't think you have 4.1.1, that would be from 8.1016:38
Mamarokand you run 9.04, don't you?16:38

shreyMurchadh: i m not able to remove files in du -h /var/cache/apt/archives/partial17:21
Murchadhshrey: Sorry, leave off the partial, and you will need to be root. aptitude clean will remove them all.17:22
Murchadhdu -h /var/cache/apt/archives/ is to show what space they are currently taking up.17:23
Murchadhsudo rm /var/cache/apt/archives/ will delete all the .deb files in there.17:24
shreyMurchadh: Thanks...17:24
Murchadhshrey: df -h will show disk space. du -h ~ shows disk usage of /home/yourusername. (The -h switch is for Human Readable form i.e. MB instead of bytes, etc.17:26
