[00:00] DWonderly: 9.10 has a kubuntu-netbook-remix version currently Alpha5. Works quite well overall, the plasma-netbook needs more tweaking though [00:00] Okay. Ive been thinking about changing over from gnome to KDE [00:02] how do I turn off all keyboard repeating? [00:02] like if you hold down a button and it repeats that button [00:02] like aaaaaaaaaaaaaaa [00:03] nevermind, got it [00:07] Does anyone experience slower logins in KDE 4.3? About 10 seconds slower than in KDE 4.2. [00:10] I have virtualbox running an ubuntu server. It works when im connected to my router because an ipaddress is assigned, but when not connected to the router how can i access the virtual server from the host os? === z is now known as Guest4220 [00:15] Is there anything in Kubuntu 9.04 that is similar to Cleartype?

[00:23] krunner is broken [00:24] Anyone got three monitors to work with xinerama (1 on PCI; 2 on PCIx) [00:25] and logging in via the CLI and setting the xserver and display and running an application results in squat all happeneing [00:27] ah this sucks I'll just logout and login the other user [00:27] To run one app >_< [00:28] hi [00:29] hi === m4v_ is now known as m4v === john is now known as Guest62421 === Guest62421 is now known as DeadmanIncJS [00:44] hi guys, anyone knows why may Kate be ignoring my keyword configuration (particularly regarding dead-keys)? [00:48] didn't load them? [00:59] Daskreech: 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't [00:59] (it comes as two separate characters: 'a) [01:02] pabloz, 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 > Keyboard [01:02] When it forgets I just press the flag twice. (Once to go to EN, then again to go back to ES) [01:05] actually, I have keyword layouts disabled [01:05] *the* keyword layout is spanish [01:08] pabloz, that's an odd bug, works for me on, err, kde 3.5.10 :P [01:10] TD-Linux: do you have keyword layouts enabled in System Settings -> Region & Lang > Keyboard ? [01:10] yeah I switch between US and US International [01:11] both are in the list [01:11] as I said this is ancient kde though, kubuntu 8.04 [01:11] ok, I guess that's the difference [01:11] ah [01:11] I'm on 9.04 [01:15] maybe is http://guido-flohr.net/dell/latitude-e5400/keyboard.html#keyboard_kde_qt ? [01:17] """Setting the environment variables LANG and LC_ALL to "en_US.UTF-8" (or any other utf-8 locale (...)) fixed the problem""" [01:18] maybe that's what the keyword layout setting option does directly or as a side-effect? (assuming that would make kate follow the system configuration) [01:26] anyone know if it's possible to like set certain mouse buttons to do certain keyboard combos? [01:27] I've got a 5 button mouse and want to use the other buttons [01:31] How many lines is Terminal === derrick is now known as D-Master === shadowhywind__ is now known as shadowhywind === z is now known as Guest70655 [02:14] I am having a problem where a blacklisted module (evbug) is beibng loaded even though the module is blacklisted. What would cause this behavior ? [02:15] does another module depend on it? just a guess, I have never had to blacklist a module. [02:16] no modules depend on it. It is more a developer tool [02:16] this module is blacklisted by default, I did not blacklist it [02:49] hello i want to mention that nvidia driver 180 should be updated to 185. we would really apprciate it [02:51] !medibuntu [02:51] medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org [03:01] !info nvidia-glx-185 [03:01] Package nvidia-glx-185 does not exist in jaunty [03:01] !info nvidia-glx-185 karmic [03:02] nvidia-glx-185 (source: nvidia-graphics-drivers-180): NVIDIA binary Xorg driver.

[03:29] 9999 channels and nothing on [03:29] lol! [03:29] want to help me with my first venture into linux lol [03:30] depends, do you need general assistance, or is something seriously wrong? [03:30] ummm [03:30] nothing serious [03:31] !ask [03:31] 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. :-) [03:31] but my poor heads got a sore spot on it from beating it into the desk [03:31] i'm going on year two or so of mostly linux myself... let's see if we can't help you out [03:31] what up people [03:32] Korlis: Guest30259 is new, we're going to help him [03:32] what seems to be the issue? [03:32] Korlis: he hasn't asked anything yet though [03:33] oh [03:33] hey, has anyone had any success with Rosetta Stone in Wine? I can get it running easily enough, but it won't detect my analog mic [03:33] someone 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 utilities [03:34] i have read and read and grub 2 seems to be able to do this [03:34] Grub two could do it [03:34] im sticking with the 1.x for now though, not a big fan of the read only grub.cfg [03:34] *greek* [03:34] Agum br por aqui? [03:35] sorry [03:35] hi people [03:35] Guest30259: well that project is way beyond me... good luck [03:35] though with 16 gigs, you might have a hard time fitting 3 operating systems on it with your applications [03:35] bemlindo: Brasil? [03:35] ? there not that big of isos? [03:36] sim [03:36] sim [03:36] vc tbm? [03:36] the isos are compacted, they expand when you unpack them so they'll boot [03:37] that doesnt happen in ram? [03:37] can't think of the right terminology right now, sorry [03:37] and how is it possible on a cd then where its read only [03:37] on a live cd it does, but you're talking about installing them on the drive, not booting into a live usb environment [03:38] or so i thought [03:38] no no no [03:38] live [03:38] but installing xp/vista [03:38] but the other utilities will be live iso [03:39] genii: vc tA Ai? [03:39] my advice, if you're just starting out would be to keep windows on your hard drive, and just install SUPEROS on the usb [03:39] The 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 with [03:39] !br | bemlindo [03:39] bemlindo: Por favor, use #ubuntu-br para ajuda em português. Obrigado. [03:39] genii: isso mesmo [03:39] if you install windows on the USB you will only be able to boot to one computer [03:40] in a live cd everything happens in ram. that is what I think he is asking. [03:40] bemlindo: English here [03:40] bad communication here [03:40] sorry [03:40] ok sorry === rabidweezle_ is now known as RabidWeezle [03:41] so let me give this a go [03:41] i would love to have one usb key and be able to boot ubuntu/kubuntu off of it and run it live, but if i need to fix someones computer/format i want to boot to it and use it as a xp/vista cd [03:41] you want to install linux, windows xp/vista on a pen drive, the ubuntu or whatever as a live usb [03:42] sadly windows doesn't work as a live cd [03:42] does 2 :P [03:42] google barts pe. [03:42] ! pe does but i dont care about that im talking about... just using it for a cd [03:42] Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [03:43] so i dont need to carry around cds [03:43] pair0doc, i knew MS had a live cd thing, but I thought it wasn't available to normal consumers [03:43] their is a freeware version hang on will look up the link. [03:44] I've just installed linux-kubuntu for the first time. I can't seem to edit the sensitivity of my stick pointer. Can anyone help. I also don't see adept, which i was told I could use to install firefox. [03:44] http://www.nu2.nu/pebuilder/ [03:44] bbl [03:44] drvenom, open up a terminal and type - apt-get install firefox [03:44] whhops [03:45] sudo apt-get install firefox [03:45] lol [03:45] ok, is there an easier way to install software than command lines? [03:45] in the terminal [03:45] yeah [03:45] well [03:45] i mean, there is a graphical way, Adept will do that [03:45] I'm a windows user, so I'm not use to command lines. [03:45] terminal IMO is easier [03:45] ok [03:45] np [03:45] er, ima gnome user [03:46] Korlis: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [03:46] lol, maybe i should finish an entire sentence before pressing enter [03:46] haha i have the same problem very .... random [03:47] drvenom: If you follow Korlis' advice also reun before that sudo apt-get update .For gui: K-menu, System,Add/Remove (which is neithe Adept or Synaaptic, etc but now KPackagekit) [03:47] thank you genii, i moved to gnome when the 4.x series came out and kubuntu pushed it out [03:47] ok here is a link of sorta what i want to accomplish but not really there using something like grub legacy or grub4dos or something www.hak5.org/episodes/episode-524 [03:47] so i wasn't aware of the change [03:48] i might give kde a try again when karmic koala is released [03:48] i plan on doing a clean install this time around, been doing dist-upgrade since feisty [03:49] ok how the F#%@# do i change my name in here this is rediculus guest30259 [03:49] type /nick yourname === Korlis is now known as korlios [03:49] see === korlios is now known as Korlis === Guest30259 is now known as Ben [03:50] YEAHH === Ben is now known as Guest58353 [03:50] wtf [03:50] it just changed [03:51] one thing i love about Linux, i do computer repair, i was able to diagnose a bad HD in a laptop just by switching the HD form my laptop into the broken one and making sure everything worked [03:51] Guest58353: /nick newnicknamegoeshere [03:51] plus the scratching and whining sounds the HD made when i hooked it up to an external dock were good indicators too [03:52] i did and in 30sec it changed back [03:52] Guest58353: If the name is already taken by someone else and registered, it won't let you use it for your own [03:52] ye gods genii, stop typing so fast [03:52] .... isnt that the point of a NICKname GERRR [03:52] Guest58353: "ben" is most likely taken === Guest58353 is now known as Spider [03:53] hey genii === Spider is now known as Spider21 [03:53] the registration is frist come, first serve [03:53] if memory serves, 'Benjamin' is also taken [03:53] BAH [03:54] i just got Rosseta stone, was told it works flawlessly in wine, and it does, with one hiccup, it can't detect my analog mic, any ideas? [03:55] Korlis: I don't have any useful insight on that problem. You may want to try in ##winehq (I think is the channelname) [03:56] so is there a way of registering a name on irc or do i have to do this every time i log on [03:56] !register > Spider21 [03:56] Spider21, please see my private message [03:56] how [03:56] AHH nm [03:57] * genii sips his coffee [03:57] Type /nickserv register passwordhere emailhere [03:59] Spider21: you'll want to change your identity on your irc client [04:00] so it grabs your name by default [04:01] thanks gs3 === ben is now known as Guest71222 === Guest71222 is now known as Spider21 [04:04] there we go! learning already lol [04:04] woot [04:04] lol u check out that link yet [04:05] www.hak5.org/episodes/episode-524 [04:05] pretty cool spider [04:06] thats SORTA what i want to accomplish [04:07] i think i could bump my way threw it if i could only figure out how to install Grub 1.96 onto my damn usb key [04:07] aka grub2* [04:08] i 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 self [04:09] also whats the best irc client to use when im on my windoze box? [04:10] you 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 grub2 [04:10] Spider21: i use kvirc [04:11] dont ask me, last windows i used was 2000, now the ony time i touch windows is to fix computers [04:11] lol [04:12] korlis why am i installing windows on my usbkey? [04:12] i dont know, i thought you said you were [04:12] am i missing something [04:12] i think im still miss communicating [04:13] im probably mis interpreting [04:14] i think im gonna start a LUG [04:15] ok 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 there [04:16] oh, 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 load [04:17] bingo [04:17] along with still using it for storage if needed but not a must [04:18] How do I get rid of join part quit messages in Quassel? /ignore #kubuntu joins parts quits doesn't do anything. [04:18] http://psychoticspoon.blogspot.com/2009/01/booting-multiple-livecds-from-single.html [04:18] Scunizi: Right click on the channel name and look at ignore events. [04:18] http://jeysundar.blogspot.com/2009/06/boot-multiple-distro-from-usb-flash.html [04:19] ScottK: thanks.. I guess it acts like xchat.. not irssi [04:20] any of them links accomplish this with grub [04:20] 2 [04:21] i dont think so [04:21] but does it matter? [04:22] Bah... it didnt look like it lol well it doesnt matter but im trying to be difficult and learn something at the same time [04:22] the second link is easier [04:22] i started with Debian, kinda dove in head first with woody [04:23] then 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-desktop [04:23] now im with gnome, with a million unused libraries lying around that i never bothered to clean up [04:24] haha is there anything hurt from having kde and gnome on the same box [04:24] no [04:24] and kubuntu and ubuntu is deb based isnt it? [04:24] yeah, thats why i use it [04:24] debian was my first love [04:25] lol i hear debian is the way to go so i chose the ever so popular k/ubuntu [04:26] you heard right, at least imo. though redhat's certification is certainly popular in the workplace [04:26] imo? [04:26] im my opinion [04:26] duh [04:26] i knew thats what that meant [04:26] lol [04:27] hello. i recently installed kubuntu 9.04 after having used 7.04 for almost 2 years [04:27] whats this suse craze i also hear about maybe im useing the wrong term here but it seams to be more of a "hacker" distro [04:28] i much prefer apt over rpm, and Debian's repo's are larger than redhat's and Fedora's, though Fedora does KDE better than Kubuntu [04:28] using* [04:28] i'm experiencing trouble with the sound. i do get sound for all applications, but it sounds very bad [04:28] like an old record [04:28] nah, gentoo, or LFS would be hacker distros [04:29] when 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 problems [04:29] you could try using alsa instead [04:29] cool.. or so i thought.. but then i read that in kubuntu pulse audio isn't even activated [04:29] saebbi: No pulseaudio on Kubuntu. [04:29] in fact, kubuntu users install pulseaudio because they WANT to use it.. as opposed to ubuntu users [04:29] does kubuntu use OSS? [04:29] now i'm confused ;) [04:30] so.. should i install pulse audio and hope it will fix my sound problem? or are there other things i could try? [04:30] so try installing pulse, see if that works, can't hurt [04:31] is his audio problem soundcard specific? my sound works fine [04:31] well, my sound worked fine with kubuntu 7.04 on that very same computer [04:31] hummm [04:31] my soudn worked fine when i first switched to kubuntu with feisty [04:32] something someone *fixed* hu? lol [04:32] lol [04:32] i have pulse though [04:32] korlis, any problems? [04:32] seriously, ive heard horror stories with pulse, but its always been perfect for me [04:32] i find it funny that all the ubuntu users have problems with pulse [04:32] i have a realtek sound card [04:33] and kubuntu users install it by choice [04:33] well, i'll just try it.. as you said, it can't hurt [04:33] ive been an ubuntu user since kde 4.x came out, and it still don't cause me problems [04:33] saebbi: pulse is new and has tons of potential.. it will eventually be good.. but until then it's somewhat problemmatic [04:33] yea [04:34] *goes to read about wtf pulse is* [04:34] it does have a LOT of potential [04:34] i personally like pulse [04:34] i really like what i could do with it (if i got it to work) [04:35] pulse server on one computer with a nice sound system, and pulse clients on all of my linux and win boxes [04:35] something i've always wanted [04:35] humm.... interesting project [04:35] HTPC running Debian Sid [04:36] PPA's installed for stuff liek Miro, MythTv, Boxee [04:36] cron automatically updates weekly [04:37] sweet [04:37] now i just need a HDTV intead of my 19 inch CRT [04:37] haha [04:38] Korlis: lately tigerdirect.com has had 22" monitors on sale for $139 .. HD compatible. [04:38] haha have u guys heard of .... www.silicondust.com [04:38] sweet, cept the wife would kill me if i wpent more money on computer, or computer related stuff [04:39] hmm, i'll just tell her my check was 150 bucks short, and you can tell her it was a gift from you Scunizi [04:39] lol [04:39] Korlis: :)\ [04:40] :) [04:40] i can wait, we're gonna use out taxes this year to get a 42 inch LCD [04:42] the debian box already has a hdmi output, because i think ahead [04:42] now i need a gaming box [04:42] obama probably is gona hand out IOU's for tax season this year lol [04:42] with Gentoo, for optimum performance [04:42] lol [04:43] looking for some help... upgraded from 8.04 to 9.04/kde3.5.10, now automount doesn't work for cd's or usb devices, and wine programs do not recognize when I insert a blank disc for recording. [04:45] I'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 8.0.4 [04:45] er... 8.04 [04:48] seems to be a problem with KDE [04:49] how so? [04:49] i got another question connecting to a kubuntu box via vnc from a windoze box.... the remote screen *linux* from the windows box gets all crazy colored and double imaged/blurry [04:49] wait, not KDE gparted [04:50] https://bugs.launchpad.net/gparted/+bug/134712 [04:51] gparted is listed as a gnome tool... kde uses it too? [04:51] aptitude says it's not even instlled here [04:52] dunno, i just followed a link from a guy having the same problem with Suse, in KDE [04:52] http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/susenovell-60/usb-automount-doesnt-work-613386/ [04:53] spider, are you using VNC or tightvnc? [04:53] ok, thanks [04:54] anyone know of soemthing that will stream video over my local network and reencode it as flash on the fly? [04:54] to view or what [04:54] I basically want to be able to stream video to my wii [04:54] no clue dark [04:55] i know how to encode to flash but.... stream idk [04:55] yeah, no idea dark, maybe from pc to pc [04:55] DarkriftX: I don't know about flash but vlc server will serve it up in lots of ways [04:55] hrmmmm, ill check that one out [04:55] but how would you connect to vlc server from a wii? [04:55] someone said i need it to encode it to flash on the fly (i wasnt sure this was even possible) [04:55] it needs to be an http server [04:56] i found a windows app, but i didnt want to setup a windows server [04:56] maybe ill have to :( [04:56] DarkriftX: vlc will do http [04:56] see if the windows app will work in wine [04:56] tried [04:56] DarkriftX: it'll run in windows to [04:56] it chokes on the .net 2.0 install [04:56] Scunizi: yeah, i have vlc on all my compuiters [04:57] well, if vlc will serve up http then there you go [04:57] Scunizi knows all [04:57] ive actually never used vlc server [04:57] and to answer your question korlis i have tried viewing the linux box with real vnc and tight vnc as well [04:57] naw.. I've just played with lots of programs .. mainly because I don't program .. always looking for a better way to skin a cat :) [04:59] i 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 to [04:59] but right now, ive no desire, i got Rosetta Stone, and am going to learn Japanese [04:59] i cant confirm this but i want to say linux to linux vnc works fine.... [04:59] figures [05:02] well, i do know that X sometimes has problems over a VNC connection, ive experienced them, freenx works much better, but is not available for windows [05:03] when i connect to my self from kubuntu to kubuntu with the build in remote desktop vnc client works fine [05:03] hmm, looking at my last comment, that wasn't helpful at all [05:04] go ahead, strike me down [05:04] haha no its fine... lol [05:04] i deserve it [05:04] helpfull no but atleast im not crazy [05:05] someone else has had the problem too [05:05] * 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!" [05:06] least thats how i came across to myself [05:06] you can also tunnel X via putty + xming [05:07] freenx is an improved version of that [05:07] from windoze [05:08] here is my idea to run my linux box headless down stairs in my server rack [05:08] airconditioned server rack :) [05:09] Hey 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] if its headless you can jsut sftp or ssh into it to move around files or whatever you want [05:10] ... lol u could i couldnt *yet* bassically i want to run it as i would in virtualbox but it not being virtual [05:10] Spider21, there are also two different ways for vnc [05:11] you can use x11vnc for the current session [05:11] or you can login to new session with the traditional vnc server [05:11] *very new to linux* [05:11] GUIs are nice :) [05:11] I'm going to bed now [05:11] ask me tomorrow :P [05:11] night TD [05:11] zaduma: sounds like grub got installed on the wrong drive.. switch the drive order in your bios and see if that fixes it. [05:11] lol night [05:12] or 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] i think im gonna go to bed too, my fingers are outpacing my brain, and im not a fast typer [05:12] x vnc server for full headless [05:12] x11vnc when I was doing work on the actual machine as well [05:12] scunizi: thanks i'll try that now, seems so simple now ill come back to let you know [05:13] so dont use the "built in" vnc server in kubuntu [05:13] see you all later [05:13] cya korlis thanks for the help [05:13] meh, i gave very little help, i might be of more help when im fully awake, maybe [05:14] big maybe [05:14] anyway, see ya later [05:14] ill pick your brain later ;) [05:17] Hey 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] zaduma: the other solution is to put grub on the other drive. [05:18] !grub | zaduma [05:18] zaduma: 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/GrubHowto [05:19] Scunizi: 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] oops ok im back [05:21] zaduma: 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] zaduma: is one sata and the other ide? [05:22] Scunizi: Yes one is ide and one is sata [05:22] Scunizi: Also, i'd rather just have to install grub again later then open up my case... to lazy for that ;) [05:22] zaduma: I've had this issue.. drove me nuts.. I ended up installing grub on all my drives. [05:23] can someone help me [05:23] i have got sound working on my laptop [05:23] but no sound for flash [05:23] !flash [05:23] To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - See also !Restricted and !Gnash [05:24] Scunizi: i have flash installed and working - sometimes the sound works but most of the time it doesn't [05:24] Scunizi: Well here goes nothing, I'll come back to confirm that this has worked, hopefully on my kubuntu and not this crappy windows.. [05:24] navetz: flash is problemmatic [05:25] Scunizi: it was working fine before i went from 8.04 to 9.04 [05:25] scunizi: how would i go about installing grub2 onto a usb key [05:25] navetz: when you did that did flash also get upgraded? [05:26] Spider21: I haven't messed with grub2.. maybe the link will have info [05:26] !grub [05:26] 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/GrubHowto [05:27] Scunizi: no idea lol [05:27] navetz: check your /home hidden directories for flash references.. you might have 2.. delete the older one.

Am I missing something? [14:31] It 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] hey Blues it said this "sudo aptitude install libxine1-ffmpegSorry, try again. [14:32] hello [14:33] having problems with amarok no music runs [14:34] ya [14:34] tried configuring the multimedia tried many things [14:34] ebovine, 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] dke 4.3.1 [14:34] mat: why version? [14:34] kde 4.3.1 on kubuntu [14:34] I meant which Amarok version :) [14:35] oh ! wait a sec [14:35] 2.1 [14:35] i got 2.0.2 [14:36] mat: make sure you use the xine backend and have libxine1-ffmpeg installed [14:36] BluesKaj: 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] i'll check that thanks [14:36] brennan: 2.1.1 is in the jaunty-backports repository [14:36] hello, someone got xmacro or xnee on his kubuntu 9.04? [14:37] ebovine, network manager doesn't save your settings ? [14:37] frederick: that is a strange question, what problem do you have exactly? [14:37] Mamarok: i already got it installed [14:38] what does that mean? [14:38] well, i wanted to know if there is an issue with xnee of 9.04, and how i can let record xmacro? [14:38] BluesKaj: 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] What does jaunty-backports mean? [14:38] brennan: that is the repository where newer versions are backported to, you can activate it in the sources [14:38] brennan: its the repo to install new software after the freeze [14:39] so, am I alone on this one? =/ [14:40] galvao: I don't have an iPhone, sorry, also mounting highly proprietary devices like that one are always tricky [14:40] so what do i gotta type in bash [14:40] brennan: I guess you have KDE 4.2.2, right? Are you familiar with editing sources? [14:41] Mamarok: 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 anyway [14:41] mat: wait [14:41] unfamiliar [14:41] mat: I bet you have pulseaudio installed... [14:41] bummer 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 sure [14:41] yes i do [14:41] Mamarok: i do have pulse audio [14:42] mat: get rid of it, that's the cause of your problems [14:42] im not sure what kind of ver. i got? [14:42] BluesKaj: wicd was my next option. :) Thanks. [14:42] Mamarok: thx a lot mate i'll do that [14:42] mat: remove pulseaudio, set the phonon backend to xine, remove ~/.kde/share/config/phonondevicesrc and restart KDE [14:42] that should do the trick [14:42] ebovine, give wicd a try , we'll be here to help when you get it installed [14:43] big thx [14:43] brennan: if you didn't add sources since you installed Kubuntu 9.04, then you have 4.2.2 [14:43] BluesKaj: Anticipating that wicd is going to give me troubles? [14:43] ebovine, warning , wicd will replace your existing network manager [14:43] how do i add sources [14:44] brennan: well, by editing the sources.list, but you need to make sure not to make any typos [14:44] ebovine, wicd is successful in most cases , but there are some that are inexplicably not working with it [14:44] BluesKaj: What the package name to get the original network manager back if wicd fails. [14:44] brennan: first, type 'sudo cp /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.save [14:44] without the ' [14:45] so you have a copy of the sources.list if something goes wrong [14:46] Mamarok: Well, thanks for responding =) [14:46] i typed that [14:46] brennan: then you type 'kdesudo kate /etc/apt/sources.list and check, if you have a line there that says: #deb http://ch.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ jaunty-backports main [14:47] galvao: you are welcome [14:48] 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? [14:48] brennan: do you see this line in the sources.list? [14:49] uh im typing [14:49] brennan: instead of typing you can also copy-paste the command I gave :) [14:49] kdesudo kate /etc/apt/sources.list [14:49] just that [14:50] ebovine, do you still have your live cd , if so you can reinstall it from there [14:51] i did [14:51] brennan: the important part to look for is the 'jaunty-backports' one, I typed the source I have as I am on a Swiss mirror [14:52] do you have such a line? [14:52] 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? [14:53] panos4ever_: you also have to actually run X with that driver, try looking in the hardware drivers (in the menu System -> Hardware drivers) [14:54] it opened kate and they are main restrected universe multiverse [14:54] thats on mamarok [14:54] brennan: you have that line with jaunty backports? [14:55] brennan: then you can just remove the # sign in front of that line and save the file [14:55] panos4ever_: you did try with the default installed driver, did you? [14:55] yep [14:55] panos4ever_: then I don't know, somebody with better knowledge about Nvidia drivers might know better [14:56] both its says this directly [14:56] what's the nvidia question? [14:56] Mamarok: i saw you typing about sound configuratrion... i have no more sound neither... i'm busy removing pulseaudio like you said... and then? [14:56] # deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ jaunty-backports main restricted universe multiverse [14:56] # deb-src http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ jaunty-backports main restricted universe multiverse [14:56] brennan: ok, just remove the # and the space in front of the first line [14:57] k ill try [14:57] if i show u my xorg.conf can u see whats on? [14:57] then save the file (it will ask you to save it when you close kate) [14:57] panos4ever_: no, not really, as most of the time that file is empty anyway [14:57] panos4ever_: also I don't use nvidia [14:57] then what? [14:57] brennan: did you save the file and close kate? [14:57] I can help you panos4ever_ check your pm [14:58] uh huh [14:58] rabidweezle: please keep support in this channel and don't pom people except on request [14:58] pm* [14:58] ok, well can someone relay to me what his question was, I just got in :/ [14:58] brennan: what does that mean? Could you make clear sentences, please? [14:59] rabidweezle: then ask him :) [14:59] I did, in channel and pm XD [14:59] then be patient :) [14:59] i closed kate and opened amarok [15:00] brennan: no, that's not how it works :) [15:00] o [15:00] brennan: you now need to run 'sudo apt-get update', then 'sudo apt-get install amarok' [15:00] well it said too many errors encountered in playlist playback stopped [15:00] * genii twtiches [15:01] brennan: because you don't have it installed yet [15:01] brennan: see what I wrote above [15:01] yes [15:02] brennan: also, from the error you get you also need to install the codecs anyway [15:02] brennan: did you update and install it yet? [15:03] after the first command you gave me i got 'E: Type 'medibuntu.orgdeb' is not known on line 54 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list [15:03] brennan: then you modified something else in the sources.list, I didn't even talk abut that source [15:04] brennan: there is obviously a typo in your sources.list [15:04] hello, i have problems with audio... phonon popups and tells me my soundcard doesn't work, fallback to pulseaudio... a long time it went good, but now sound is gone... are there solutions? [15:04] ya in line 54 i think [15:05] frederick: remove pulseaudio, install the phonon-backend-xine and kubuntu-restricted-extras, remove ~/.kde/share/config/phonondevicesrc and restart KDE [15:05] some other kid told me to me to try medibuntu [15:07] anyone knows this bug? cannot solve? "halt: unable to iterate ide devices" cant shutdown the computer [15:07] brennan: well, you have a typo in there, could you please send the sources.list into http://paste.ubuntu.com and give the URL here? [15:07] i corrected what that kid told me now i fixed it. [15:08] brennan: ok, but you should avoid taking advices for the same thing from different sources, and I don't know who is giving you advice in PM, but that's not how it should be done... [15:09] after i typed aptgetinstallamarok , with the proper punctuation. i get ... [15:09] brennan: either you follow me or somebody else...

[15:25] i can find them [15:27] brennan: you need to edit the sources.list with 'kdesudo kate /etc/apt/sources.list' [15:28] remove that # sing in front of that line, save the file, then run sudo apt-get update again, then you can install Amarok 2.1.1 [15:28] #winehq [15:29] blake__: type /join #winehq [15:30] ok should i remove the space after [15:31] yes, just remove # and the space, too [15:31] + what about line 39 [15:31] hi [15:32] Mamarok: what about line 39 [15:32] brennan: no, you don't need the sources, unless you are a developer [15:33] the deb-src line only gives you the sources, not the packages [15:33] ok [15:33] cool [15:34] now what i closed kate [15:35] and you saved the file, right? [15:35] then you can run sudo apt-get update [15:35] then sudo apt-get install amarok [15:35] that should install the newer version [15:36] you will have to rescan the database, as there was a database change betweeen 2.0 and 2.1 [15:37] but normally it should be triggered automatically [15:40] it told me invalid opertion install [15:40] how do i rescan the detabase [15:40] brennan: sudo apt-get install amarok ? [15:40] the certainly works [15:41] brennan: just let amarok do that, it should be automated [15:41] k its working [15:41] nice [15:41] ya [15:42] brennan: while you are at it, check also if you have kubuntu-restricted-extras installed [15:42] just type sudo apt-get install kubuntu-restricted-extras it should tell you if it's already there [15:43] Well, 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] The wired worked fine. [15:43] (Is working fine) [15:45] it said it couldnt find the package [15:46] brennan: and you are sure you didn't make a typo? [15:47] because here tis command shows me the package is installed [15:47] this* [15:48] ya [15:49] never mind there wasnt an s on the end. [15:49] ok :) [15:52] amarok still wont play its comes back with errors in the playlist [15:52] sould i wait till this extras gets dont [15:52] would that even matter [15:54] brennan: well, yes, once these packages are installed, just restart Amarok [15:54] because those ship the codecs you need for mp3 playback and such [15:54] YESSS [15:54] from your exclamation I guess it works now :) [15:55] YUP!! [15:55] nice :) [15:55] thanks dude [15:55] brennan: you are welcome :) [15:56] the wifi doesn't work on here what do you know [15:58] brennan: well, installing the wicd package seems to solve the problem for most of the people [16:02] ...i'm interested in using scripts of Gimp.

[16:09] would love to explain things in detail to get help [16:09] chirag: just ask, I can't tell if I can help without knowing the question [16:09] just try to keep it short and precise [16:10] Mamarok, genii: thanks, i'v just supposed that there is better literature for beginings. But... thnx) [16:10] ku: you are welcome, the tutorials there are quite good [16:10] original xp user. started dual boot with kubuntu which some how crashed. xp was working fine. removed kubuntu and installed opensue. [16:11] mean while windows crashed. opensuse followed. [16:11] chirag: stop [16:11] reinstalled kubuntu 8.1 i guess [16:11] you don't tell us what crashed [16:11] and reinstalling and switching all the time is hardly a good way to solve things :) [16:12] there are too many partitions which i want to remove [16:13] chirag: 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 up [16:13] also, get yourself a working live CD, that's needed [16:13] have one [16:13] you just said you couldn't run it [16:13] 8.4 [16:14] chirag: 8.04 you mean [16:14] 9.04 is not working [16:14] yes [16:14] that doesn't matter, for partitioning you can do this with every version, even much older ones [16:15] what do i do now? [16:15] chirag: hm, I haven't done that in a while, I need to reread the docs for that [16:16] ok. [16:16] my bad luck may be [16:16] chirag: no, as you are online, you can also read that: [16:16] !partition | chirag [16:16] chirag: For help with partitioning a new install see: https://help.ubuntu.com/8.04/switching/installing-partitioning.html - For partitioning programs see !GParted, !QtParted (!Kubuntu 8.10 and lower) or !PartitionManager (!Kubuntu 9.04 and up) - Other partitioning topics include !fstab !home and !swap [16:17] k [16:17] but as I said previously, I am not the only person online here and maybe someone else knows off hand the exact steps [16:21] hhmm. that would be nice if "someone" can come forward! [16:23] is it true that 3g internet/modems wont work properly with kde 4.3 / knetworkmanger???? === Silver is now known as Guest20029 [16:23] hello again, [16:24] Mamarok: I followed your steps for the sound problem... no solution... [16:24] hello [16:24] frederick: and you have the necessary codecs installed? [16:25] frederick: also check the systemsettings -> multimedia if everything is set correctly, using the xine backend [16:26] Mamarok: is Xine, and what codec i need? i can't remember of deleting any codec... [16:27] frederick: just install kubuntu-restricted-extras, that should install all the needed ones [16:27] ANY PARTITION EXPERT... need some time of yours pls... [16:27] Mamarok: was already installed... [16:27] chirag, 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. [16:28] Mamarok: deinterlace method in backend is 'use_vo_driver', is that correct? [16:28] frederick: I have not a clue what you are talking about :) [16:28] just make sure you use xine, and that you don't have pulseaudio on top somewhere [16:29] also, check that nothing is muted in kmix [16:29] i don't... but phonon still says that the soundcard doesn't word... [16:29] nothing muted :-) [16:29] frederick: strange, did you do some alsa configuration yourself? [16:30] does GParted come as default? [16:30] or need to download it? [16:30] chirag: just check :9 [16:30] aptitude show gparted [16:30] nope... the only thing i did was adding some updates from the kubuntu updater... and bang, no more sound... [16:31] frederick: what updater? [16:31] the one thats come standard in kubuntu... [16:31] check in adept? [16:31] hm, typo, I meant what updates? [16:32] !gparted | chirag [16:32] chirag: 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.php [16:32] thats the question, donno anymore... it's a week ago, already a weer searching for the sound problem... [16:33] frederick: I haven't seen mayn updates lately in 9.04 [16:33] got it. thanks. it works fine with kde as well, right? [16:33] 3 days ago :-) [16:33] I know, but those were not that many, which KDE do you run? [16:33] the latest, trough the backports... [16:34] frederick: which is 4.3.1, same as I have [16:34] can i check that with a command in terminal? [16:34] chirag, it's a live cd , you boot into it [16:34] frederick: check if you have some .asoundconf in your home folder [16:35] Mamarok: .asoundrc.asoundconf [16:36] and i think my kde version is 4.1.1... [16:36] frederick: remove that and restart KDE, that might ne the culprit [16:36] phonon does the configuration without that, this is a relict of pulseaudio I guess [16:36] be* [16:37] where can i see the version of kde? [16:38] Mamarok: deleting .asoundrc also? [16:38] frederick: in any KDE application Help -> About KDE [16:38] frederick: yes [16:38] frederick: I don't think you have 4.1.1, that would be from 8.10 [16:38] and you run 9.04, don't you? [16:39] hey anyone know how to update blocked updates in kubuntu [16:39] shrey: sudo apt-gt dist-upgrade [16:39] i use terminal sudo aptitude dist-upgrade [16:39] ok :-) [16:39] apt-get, sorry [16:40] frederick: they have the same meaning :) === HanzZ is now known as testicek [16:40] Mamarok: 4.3.1, i know, but it typs easier :p [16:40] ok, lets delete files, see y'all later :-) [16:40] well, try removing thpse asound* stuff, remove the phonondevicesrc again and restart [16:43] hi [16:44] Mamarok : i have 7 blocked updates...i just want to install only 3 of them.. can i do that [16:45] ?

[17:21] Murchadh: i m not able to remove files in du -h /var/cache/apt/archives/partial [17:22] shrey: Sorry, leave off the partial, and you will need to be root. aptitude clean will remove them all. [17:23] du -h /var/cache/apt/archives/ is to show what space they are currently taking up. [17:24] sudo rm /var/cache/apt/archives/ will delete all the .deb files in there. [17:24] Murchadh: Thanks... [17:26] shrey: df -h will show disk space. du -h ~ shows disk usage of /home/yourusername.
