[00:04] <cmdeath> hola
[00:07] <P3X-018> When some apps starts up, the loading icon stays there for while (at the panel and next to the cursor) even after the loading finishes, how can this be fixed?
[00:08] <avihay> you can disable it...
[00:10] <P3X-018> avihay I remember you could set the time it shows up and many options, but can't find it, you know where it is?
[00:13] <P3X-018> or where can it be disabled.
[00:15] <avihay> P3X-018: system settings->desktop->launch notification
[00:16] <ivangarcia__> hi guys
[00:16] <P3X-018> That last option doesn't exist...
[00:17] <ivangarcia__> my knetworkmanager doesn't want to connect to WEP wifi's
[00:17] <ivangarcia__> and i have a correct WEP key
[00:17] <avihay> humm, I have it
[00:17] <ivangarcia__> he doesn't even try to make connection
[00:17] <avihay> ivangarcia__: I prefer not useing knetworkmanager
[00:19] <avihay> P3X-018: it should be called launch feedback, my bad
[00:21] <aj_444> where can I find the system requirements for kubuntu?
[00:21] <P3X-018> avihay: Problem is I have only 4 options there... (I know I've had more)
[00:22] <avihay> aj_444: it's on the website here and there. you want me to look it up for you?
[00:23] <aj_444> avihay: that would help. I can't find it. :/
[00:23] <avihay> k
[00:24] <Spaceman> P3X-018: in kde3 run kcontrol in the terminal and then hunt through the many, many options
[00:24] <Spaceman> it should also be in kde4
[00:25] <Spaceman> or open the terminal / konsole and type kcon then press tab and it may auto complete the name
[00:26] <ivangarcia__> any help?
[00:27] <P3X-018> Spaceman: Great the needed options are there!
[00:28] <avihay> aj_444: I found http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kubuntu#System_requirements but I don't belive it, tell me what's the system you want to run it on, I'll tell you how it will run
[00:29] <aj_444> avihay: Its running a 1.66 ghz intel atom proccessor, has 1gb ram.. and that intel GMA 950.
[00:31] <jordo2323> I am trying to mount a vfat drive in fstab but can't get read write.  Here is my fstab: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m466689e  I just can't get the options right at the end. Can anyone check?
[00:32] <avihay> well, I'm guessing that's a netbook. or how ever you call them. it should be just a little slow, but still fun to work with
[00:32] <aj_444> avihay: mmk. I'll install it.
[00:34] <e370> how do i play dvds on ubuntu?
[00:35] <avihay> aj_444: I ran kde 4.2 on a p4 1.6GHz with 512 and it was slow. but the atom processor should be way faster
[00:35] <aj_444> avihay: worst that happens is I continue using gnome. It looks really cool.
[00:36] <avihay> !dvd | e370
[00:38] <avihay> jordo2323: if you do "ls -al /media/MEDIA" what's the permissions?
[00:48] <solifugus> I keep getting stuck (just pauses forever) trying to download java plugin for firefox.. some thing when trying to "fetch packages" with adept...
[00:48] <solifugus> Is this only me?
[00:48] <solifugus> Or is something major screwed up out there?
[00:50] <avihay> I heard someone complaining about some of ubuntu's repositories
[00:51] <solifugus> So I just tried the add/remove packages thingy and it doesn't even tell me, downloading currently at 0% so I don't know if it's doing anything or not.
[00:51] <avihay>  <stesterman> Is anyone else in the US or Canada having trouble getting to us.archive.ubuntu.com or ca.archive.ubuntu.com?
[00:51] <solifugus> That's cause I forgot to click on "apply changes"
[00:52] <solifugus> but it seems stuck on "Downloading 1 of 23 packages"
[00:52] <avihay> or, maybe you didn't click th e"apply changes", yhe... :->
[00:52] <avihay> can you see the address it tryes to download from?
[00:55] <solifugus> with adept trying to fetch packages, it stops after boxee.tv  ... something like that..
[00:55] <solifugus> I need to get some work done.... I had this problem yesterday, this morning, and still now...
[00:55] <avihay> sounds like you added a repository, and the repository no longer exsists
[00:55] <solifugus> maybe I should re-install
[00:56] <solifugus> but for now, I need to use my windows partition, i think........
[00:56] <solifugus> I need the java pluggin for firefox.. to access my class site..
[00:57] <avihay> :->
[00:57] <avihay> sec
[00:59] <avihay> solifugus, try https://cds.sun.com/is-bin/INTERSHOP.enfinity/WFS/CDS-CDS_Developer-Site/en_US/-/USD/ViewProductDetail-Start?ProductRef=jre-6u16-oth-JPR@CDS-CDS_Developer
[00:59] <avihay> too late ... :-<
[01:07] <aj_444> how do I remove the top panel in ubuntu?
[01:14] <Bookman> How can I start nm-applet automatically when I start Kubuntu?
[01:16] <pitput> I want to repair grub using the live cd. I want to use the GUI way to repair grub and I read a guide where I have to select "manual partition" but from there I can't "mount" the drives as it says in the guide. Any suggestions?
[01:19] <pitput> http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/268854/              I get stuck on step 4. Any suggestions?
[01:22] <rouser> i'm sure you get this all the time, but can someone point me in the direction of installing flash on 64bit?
[01:27] <rouser> someone?
[01:28] <avihay> http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
[01:29] <rouser> that install isn't working properly for 64bit
[01:32] <rouser> I've been doing some snooping, as you can't install from the add/remove list and you can't run it from the adobe website's download as is
[01:32] <rouser> anyone find a way around that? i'm sure there is, who would use an OS that didn't have flash?
[01:35] <Bookman> rouser, you may want to ask at #ubuntu.  I'm sure I've seen successful installations of 64 bit flash there before.
[01:37] <rob___> I have a question. Anyone know how to add firefox to kubuntu?
[01:37] <Dragnslcr> Same as any other program
[01:38] <rob___> do an apt-get install?
[01:38] <Dragnslcr> Firefox 3.0 is package "firefox", and Firefox 3.5 is "firefox-3.5"
[01:38] <rob___> Than you!
[01:49] <Irving> hello
[01:49] <Bookman> Hi Irving.
[01:49] <Irving> would you be able to help me with a kubuntu issue
[01:50] <Bookman> I can try.
[01:50] <Bookman> What is the issue
[01:51] <Irving> ok i have a brand new install of 9.04 and cannot connect to my wireless network
[01:51] <Bookman> Ah, same problem I had
[01:51] <Irving> it worked great before, i had the same version installed a few days ago
[01:51] <Bookman> I have to run nm-applet from the terminal to get mine running.
[01:52] <Bookman> Have you tried that?
[01:53] <Irving> no, i'm very new at this
[01:53] <Irving> very little experience with linux
[01:53] <Bookman> No problem
[01:54] <Irving> so im in the terminal now, what do i do?
[01:54] <Bookman> nm-applet
[01:54] <Bookman> Now, to qualify this, I also run Ubuntu so I'm not sure if that helps my situation or not.
[01:55] <Irving> it says it can be found in the following packages and gives two packages
[01:55] <Irving> should i download the network-manager-gnome
[01:55] <Bookman> packages are?
[01:55] <biovirus> how can i install base in my openoffice???
[01:56] <Irving> network-manager-gnome
[01:56] <Irving> mythbuntu-diskless-client
[01:56] <Bookman> network-manager-gnome
[01:57] <Bookman> That is the one you want IIRC
[01:58] <Irving> "Package network-manager-gnome is not available, but is referred to by another package."
[01:58] <scimitar> I just installed Karmic and have a few issues if anyone can help...they are related to unreachable drives, lots of ? icons in folders and kwin crashes
[01:58] <Bookman> sudo apt-get install network-manager-gnome
[01:58] <Irving> thats what i did
[01:59] <Irving> it also says "This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or is only available from another source
[02:00] <Irving> E: Pacakge network-manager-gnome has no installation candidate
[02:00] <Bookman> Irving: I'm trying to remember how I  solved this very problem
[02:00] <Irving> ok thanks for the help
[02:00] <Bookman> I'm searching now
[02:00] <Irving> i believe i had my wirless adapter connected while installing, maybe that effected it
[02:00] <Bookman> I have it working right now so I know it is possible.
[02:01] <Bookman> This is a known bug in Kubuntu.....the solution is to use gnomes network manager.
[02:01] <Irving> a few days ago when I installed it the first time it immediately worked when I plugged in my adapter
[02:01] <Irving> oh ok
[02:02] <Bookman> Yup, same thing here!
[02:02] <Bookman> Try this:  http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/gnome
[02:02] <Bookman> Then, when you have it working, go back to Kubuntu and do the nm-applet thingy
[02:03] <biovirus> how can i install base in my openoffice???
[02:03] <Bookman> Is that possible?  Not elegant, but I'm sure it will duplicate my situation
[02:03] <Bookman> biovirus: hang in there....
[02:05] <Irving> these things aren't working either
[02:05] <Bookman> hmmmm
[02:05] <Bookman> which ones?
[02:05] <Irving> im not connected to the internet, doesn't it need it to download these?
[02:05] <Bookman> Ah, that is a problem
[02:06] <Irving> sudo apt-get update && ...
[02:06] <Bookman> Irving: you don't have a wired connection available?  I know that is a bad question!
[02:07] <Irving> unfortunately i don't
[02:07] <Bookman> hmmm.....I will keep searching then
[02:07] <Irving> well i do, but no way to get to it, need either a very long cable or moving my entire dektop
[02:07] <Irving> it shows my network
[02:07] <Bookman> Irving: I had the very same problem.  I understand your frustration completely
[02:08] <Irving> i hit scan in the wireless network screen, selected my SSID, then put in my security info
[02:08] <Bookman> Irving: it won't work
[02:08] <Irving> it just says not connected on the notifier on the bottom right
[02:08] <Bookman> yup, same as me
[02:08] <Irving> hmm
[02:09] <Irving> its odd i don't even have a connect button anywhere
[02:09] <Irving> i remember the first time on my previous install I had to manually connect
[02:10] <Irving> i can't even find that button now though
[02:10] <Bookman> I had the very same issues....
[02:16] <Bookman> And I got so angry
[02:16] <Bookman> If we could get you to install Ubuntu, then restart in Kubuntu and run nm-applet all would be well.
[02:19] <Irving> i supposed I could
[02:20] <Bookman> Well, I know no other way on this issue
[02:22] <Irving> ok thank you for all your help
[02:22] <Irving> i may try reinstalling with the card unbplugged, since I did have this working a day ago
[02:22] <Bookman> Well, it didn't work though.....what are your plans?
[02:23] <Irving> that seems to be the only difference
[02:23] <Irving> idk, if that doesn't do it, and I can't find anything else out probably just install ubuntu
[02:23] <Bookman> Do you have a CD/DVD of Ubuntu/Kubuntu?
[02:24] <Irving> kubuntu, no ubuntu
[02:25] <Bookman> Ok, just searching
[02:26] <Bookman> Kubuntu is worth trying out.  I run about 25% of my time here now.  And that is increasing.
[02:27] <leaf-sheep> Irving: Err. I don't use KDE myself but I'd try commenting out whatever it is under # The primary network interface in /etc/network/interfaces -- See if that works for you.
[02:30] <Irving> h/o a bit leaf, phone call
[02:36] <Irving> try doing what with my kubuntu cd, reinstall?
[02:49] <leaf-sheep> Irving: Meh?
[02:53] <Irving> h/o
[03:01] <Irving> i'm back

[15:36] <lokpest> https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-users/2009-March/176040.html had the same problem, solved it and links to http://amarok.kde.org/forum/index.php/topic,15438.0.html

[15:47] <PascalFR> frenchies do it better :)
[15:48] <BluesKaj> lokpest:  sometimes if you compile after downloading an app from source , you end up without user permissions ,hence the pw requirement to launch the app.

[16:35] <AlpineIbex> anybody here
[16:35] <shadeslayer> AlpineIbex: nope
[16:35] <AlpineIbex> :)
[16:35] <AlpineIbex> i have one question (my english == bad english), ...
[16:35] <shadeslayer> AlpineIbex: just go ahead and state your problem ( the channel is pretty quite )
[16:36] <AlpineIbex> In systemTry i have 4 blocked updates, what that mean and how to remove them from there?
[16:36] <AlpineIbex> i did not ask google yet (sorry)
[16:39] <AlpineIbex> anyone...
[16:42] <Bou> AlpineIbex: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[16:42] <AlpineIbex> ok, thn i will tray :D, and what will that make?
[16:47] <AlpineIbex> thx
[16:47] <AlpineIbex> bye
[17:00] <shrey> I m not able to start my quassel IRC which came with kubuntu..pls tell what to do now
[17:01] <genii> shrey: Perhaps ask in channel #quassel :)
[17:05] <cuznt> i had quassel issues on 32 bit but not on 64
[17:08] <BluesKaj> well, genii , #ubuntu+1 is filling up with know-it-alls  , that always have a 'better idea' when advice is given , thereby distracting and putting the solution on a tangent rather than trying to help ... it's becoming a pita
[17:09] <genii> BluesKaj: It's a common problem in a lot of other channels too, unfortunately
[17:10] <BluesKaj> it seems worse than usual tho
[17:11] <SonhadorPR> quick question: Which is the best app to play Audio CDs in Kubuntu?
[17:12] <genii> SonhadorPR: Amarok is generally used
[17:14] <SonhadorPR> it's not playing my cds.
[17:14] <SonhadorPR> How do I do this?
[17:16] <robin0800> SonhadorPR: you might need restricted extras
[17:16] <SonhadorPR> robin0800: How do I do that?
[17:19] <genii> !restricted
[17:22] <SonhadorPR> genii: thanx...educating myself now! :)
[17:23] <genii> SonhadorPR: You're welcome
[17:24] <scm422> Who here is the resident guru on Kubuntu 9.04?
[17:24] <shadeslayer> scm422: everyone...
[17:24]  * cuznt checks his guru
[17:24] <scm422> Im new to it and have a few questions
[17:25] <cuznt> !ask
[17:25] <shadeslayer> scm422: just state the problem and all of us will help you out :)
[17:25] <scm422> Just curious as to when my system goes and checks for updates, there are a few items that dont update and are blocked.
[17:26] <sfears> lsusb lists a device attached.  how do i figure out what /dev/device to mount?
[17:26] <shadeslayer> scm422: that means that they might be missing dependencies,etc etc, or they might be kernel upgrades and such
[17:27] <shadeslayer> scm422: use : sudo apt-get dist-upgrade : in a terminal
[17:27] <scm422> ie... all are kernel upgrades
[17:28] <shadeslayer> scm422: not necessarily,some upgrades might take you from KDE 4.3 to 4.3.1.... just a example though
[17:29] <shadeslayer> scm422: they are called distrubution upgrades.... what they dont do is take you from 9.04 to 9.10
[17:29] <scm422> should I try and update KDE 4.3 to 4.3.1<
[17:29] <shadeslayer> scm422: i dont see why not
[17:30] <scm422> I was using ubuntu 9.04 and thought I would give Kubuntu a try. Seems a little more complicated
[17:31] <shadeslayer> scm422: the base system is the same,the difference is just the DE
[17:32] <scm422> so then I should be able to do things pretty much the same as when I was using ubuntu?
[17:32] <shadeslayer> scm422: yes,all the commands are the same
[17:32] <shadeslayer> scm422: its just graphically different
[17:33] <scm422> so back to my question. Why is it I am unable to update the kernel? It says its blocked.
[17:33] <sfears> lsusb lists a device attached.  how do i figure out what /dev/device to mount?
[17:34] <shadeslayer> scm422: as i said,its a distrubution upgrade not a normal upgrade
[17:34] <shadeslayer> *distribution
[17:34] <scm422> so then there is no way to inable it?
[17:35] <shadeslayer> scm422: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade <<-- In a terminal
[17:36] <genii> scm422: Regular upgrades don't up the kernel versions. Just dist-upgrade does that
[17:37] <genii> Shrey_: Congrats on getting your Quassel going :)
[17:38] <scm422> ok I just did the sudo apt-get dist-upgrade and it said 0 found, hmmm?
[17:39] <shadeslayer> scm422: and it shows block upgrades?
[17:39] <scm422> Yes it did however now its asking me to reboot
[17:42] <cuznt> sudo apt-get -f install
[17:42] <cuznt> shadeslay try sudo apt-get -f install
[17:42] <cuznt> in a terminal
[17:43] <shadeslayer> cuznt: ?
[17:44] <cuznt> open konsole and type sudo apt-get -f install
[17:44] <cuznt> then give your password
[17:44] <cuznt> and that should help
[17:44] <cuznt> i think you have a broken package or missing dependaNcies
[17:46] <scm422> ok guess that cured that! Thanks Now yet another question? How do I upgrade firefox to 3.5?
[17:46] <shadeslayer> !firefox-3.5
[17:47] <shadeslayer> scm422: ^^
[17:47] <cuznt> ooops and i was talking to the wrong peep
[17:47] <cuznt> sorry
[17:48] <scm422> ok so how do I go about upgrading it then?
[17:51] <blake__> can anybody point me to a guide on how to install my old SATA harddrive with windows xp operating system onto my pure kubuntu gateway pc?
[17:51] <blake__> well its not pure kubuntu its ubuntu/kubuntu
[17:52] <blake__> i'd l'iek to have two hdd one with xp one with (k)ubuntu
[17:52] <blake__> anyone?
[17:56] <Mountainman> !purge
[17:56] <genii> blake__: If the new drive gets seen as for instance /dev/sdb             then you can add a chainload entry to your /boot/grub/menu.lst  for most likely sdb1
[17:57] <blake__> can i have two different hard drives on my pc, one for ubuntu and one for windows and select which one to boot from ?
[17:58] <genii> blake__: Some bios support something like "Hit F10 to select boot device"  but it sometimes confuses the operating system because the bios will re-order the disks
[17:58] <blake__> so what would happen if i connect my old windows xp hard drive into my pc and it gets seen when i start up my pc?
[18:00] <blake__> hmm
[18:00] <genii> blake__: If the old drive was previously the master hd when it booted XP, the "Hit F10 to select boot device" would work fine for that, the bios will re-order the drives to make that one look like the primary
[18:01] <blake__> the old drive was from another pc but the mother board are both SATA and both hard drives are the same just the one i have currently installed is pure linux and the old one is windows xp
[18:02] <genii> blake__: No way to know for sure except by trying it. The different motherboards might map the cyclinders/heads differently
[18:03] <blake__> okay gotcha and whats the worst that could happen?
[18:03] <genii> (which would make it unbootable no matter where it lay in the drive order)
[18:03] <semistud2354> Question?....can someone please tell me how to automagicly boot the default kernel...instead of going to the grub menu
[18:03] <blake__> should i install the old one next to the current one or pull the current one and install the old one ?
[18:04] <semistud2354> i checked different websights but i dont think there quite exactly what im looking for
[18:04] <genii> blake__: I'd suggest first to pull the Linux drive and try solely with the old XP one as the primary
[18:04] <genii> work, afk
[18:04] <blake__> thanks dud
[18:05] <Shrey_> hey buddies open office has come up with new version 3.1.1, i want to update my offce3.0 which came with kubuntu with new version..what should i type at konsole.
[18:05] <semistud2354> anyone know how to do a quiet book with no grub menu
[18:07] <genii> semistud2354: uncomment the line:  ##hiddenmenu               which is in the /boot/grub/menu.lst
[18:07] <semistud2354> im sorry...im using karmic koala...
[18:07] <semistud2354> there is no menu.lst...is that in grub.cfg??
[18:08] <genii> semistud2354: Then it's a similar idea but in the stanzas of the grub.cfg, yes
[18:08] <semistud2354> o ok...one sec lemme pull it up
[18:09] <robin0800> semistud2354: you need /etc/default/grub
[18:09] <semistud2354> o ok...im looking at the one in /boot/grub/grub.cfg
[18:10] <cor> evenin
[18:10] <semistud2354> ok...im here
[18:10] <semistud2354> and i comment out?
[18:11] <semistud2354> im not seeing hidden menu
[18:11] <cloakable> Is it just me, or is upgrade-notifier broken using KDE 4.3 on Kubuntu 9.04?
[18:11] <Shrey_> buddy hey i m having quassel version 0.4.1 which came with kubuntu what should i type to upgrade it to new version
[18:12] <semistud2354> all i see is hidden timeout = 0 &
[18:12] <semistud2354> hidden timeout quiet = true
[18:13] <semistud2354> what if i changed Grub default=0 to grub default = 1
[18:13] <semistud2354> would that work?
[18:13] <genii> semistud2354: If there's no previous entry for it which is commented out, try just adding: hiddenmenu
[18:14] <genii> Apologies on lag, work is busy
[18:14] <genii> Shrey_: Again, you should ask in the #quassel channel for that
[18:15] <Deathvalley122> anyone around?
[18:15] <genii> semistud2354: The same options which used to be listed but commented out in the grub1 menu.lst should still be backwards compatible from grub2
[18:15] <cor> set timeout = 0 no?
[18:15] <cor> are wew just trying to make the grub screen not appear?
[18:16] <semistud2354> yea
[18:16] <Deathvalley122> I need some help with a ftp I just installed proftpd and I don't know how to configure it ...
[18:16] <cor> timeout = 0 works on my system
[18:16] <semistud2354> no...its not timeout = 0
[18:16] <semistud2354> its GRUB_DEFAULT=0
[18:17] <cor> is this grub 1?
[18:17] <semistud2354> grub 2
[18:17] <cor> Deathvalley122, what are you trying to do?
[18:17] <Deathvalley122> configure it
[18:17] <genii> Work, gone for a bit again :/   I'll /away
[18:19] <Deathvalley122> there's no gui so how can I configure the stupid thing lol
[18:19] <sfears> lsusb lists a device attached.  how do i figure out what /dev/device to mount?
[18:19] <cor> it's a plain text file, like apache. that's the best way to configure servers
[18:20] <Deathvalley122> lol
[18:20] <semistud2354> genii it says DO NOT EDIT GRUB.CFG
[18:23] <semistud2354> im scared to break my system
[18:23] <semistud2354> lol
[18:24] <Pici> semistud2354: Its fine, it just doesnt want you to screw anything up.
[18:24] <semistud2354> yea..lol
[18:26] <cor> if possible, edit the templates, or else the next time you update-grub, you lose your edits
[18:35] <taurus> oi
[18:54]  * genii sips
[18:55] <genii> Looks like with grub2 to edit /etc/default/grub values and then do the grub-mkconfig to rebuild the /boot/grub/grub.cfg
[19:04] <carlino> !list
[19:05] <yusuo> hi im new to kde and i need a bit of help
[19:05] <yusuo> how do you set programs to strat automatically
[19:05] <yusuo> start
[19:08] <yusuo> its quiet as  hell in here is there no one who can help me, ive been using gnome but decided to try out kde and see whats happenening in this seen last timei used it was 7.10
[19:09] <cor> yuriy, there's a folder
[19:09] <cor> yuriy, inside your user folder, in .kde
[19:09] <genii> !autostart
[19:09] <cor> oops!
[19:09] <cor> I meant yusuo
[19:09] <cor> effin autocomplete
[19:09] <genii> Hehe
[19:09] <yusuo> ok i think im using kde4
[19:10] <cor> in ~/.kde/share/autostart works for me
[19:11] <cor> I have my synaptic setup file in there, for my touchpad
[19:11] <cor> make a .desktop file
[19:11] <yusuo> ive just made a link in my autostart file thx
[19:12] <yusuo> also how do i get compiz working not the default kde effects but the cube etc etc
[19:12] <cor> the standard fx has a cube, too
[19:12] <cor> and more
[19:13] <yusuo> i prefer compiz the standard effects are making my monitor turn off where as compiz worked perfectly before i fresh installed
[19:13] <yusuo> ive basically got rid of gnome completly and fresh installed kubuntu
[19:13] <cor> I'm not a fan of compiz, no need. the standard stuff works perfectly here.
[19:13] <cor> except shadows, which are a bit weird
[19:14] <yusuo> ok how would i go about setting that up
[19:14] <cor> it's in already, system settings > desktop
[19:14] <TDrakeHI> Need some help with ktorrent being run in gnome
[19:15] <yusuo> theres still no graphics drivers for an ati radeon v3100 firegl are they i think they discontinued them, i tried the ones on ati's website and it made my xserver unbootable
[19:16] <TDrakeHI> receiving an error, shortly after I add the torrent "Error: Cannot expand file" then path of file and it ends with "Unknown Error"
[19:16] <yusuo> they were in 8.10 names fgrlx but i cant find stable ones for my system now
[19:16] <cor> TDrakeHI, check your paths and their permissions
[19:17] <cor> yusuo, does the envyng package work for radeon?
[19:18] <yusuo> i dont know havent tried but i dont want to fresh install if it doesnt
[19:18] <TDrakeHI> I've been dloading into this folder with other files, no prob.  Permissions are 777 for the entirety of my dload dir so I wouldnt have permission errors.
[19:19] <cor> TDrakeHI, and the disk has space?
[19:20] <cor> yusuo, I'm no expert on video drivers, but I know envy has a good uninstall option!
[19:20] <TDrakeHI> yes.  That was the first thing I checked.  300GB free.
[19:20] <yusuo> cor ive installed envyng how do i installthe drivers from it
[19:21] <cor> yusuo, run envyng -t
[19:21] <cor> or whatever the switch is that brings up the text interface!
[19:21] <TDrakeHI> the torrent contains an mkv file.  I haven't had any problems before now with other mkv's.  could it be the path length?
[19:21] <cor> there#s a menu
[19:21] <cor> TDrakeHI, I was coming to this
[19:21] <cor> also, unusual charatcers might be an issue
[19:21] <cor> depending on the file syetem housing the temp directory
[19:22] <yusuo> cor ive alt+f2 it and typed in envyng nothing happening
[19:22] <TDrakeHI> im checking that now.
[19:22] <yusuo> it asked me to run it click it and nothing
[19:22] <cor> yusuo, I've always just run it from the shell
[19:22] <yusuo> fair enough 2 secs
[19:23] <TDrakeHI> That's the prob.  Fat32 FS.  256 char.max
[19:23] <cor> aha
[19:23] <yusuo> cor how do i roll back to default driver should something go wrong
[19:23] <TDrakeHI> thx cor.  Ne way to convert a fat32 to ext3 non destructively?
[19:24] <cor> for a good cross-platform file system, NTFS works well
[19:24] <cor> and there are tools in windows to do direct upgrade
[19:24] <cor> yusuo, backup your X11 configs
[19:24] <TDrakeHI> only have jaunty running on it.  I left it as FAT32 after I switched, cause I thought that the network samba share would go easier.  I know different now.
[19:24] <yusuo> cor oh well here it goes maybe see u in a minute
[19:25] <cor> yusuo, when you run envyng, you'll see it has an uninstall option. that *should* put things back the way they were. but backup anyways
[19:25] <yusuo> cor thx
[19:25] <yusuo> hopefully be back in a minute
[19:25] <cor> TDrakeHI, If you need a temporary Windows box, grab the latest Hirens boot disk. it has a "mini windows" on it
[19:26] <cor> handy for one-off tasks
[19:26] <cor> But if you don't have/need windows, screw it, data off, ext4, data on
[19:31] <TDrakeHI> ok.  That might work...gotta move stuff around to make it all fit.  Thx for the help cors.
[19:31] <TDrakeHI> It's usually the simplest answer, just needed somebody to help kick the neurons into gear
[19:33] <cor> np
[20:31] <biovirus> somebody knows what could  do for kubuntu mount automatic my ntfs's partitions?
[20:33] <genii> !info ntfs-config

[22:15] <shadeslayer> :yawn:
[22:16]  * genii pours a large Kubuntu mug of coffee for shadeslayer
[22:16] <aj_444> is there like a synaptic package manager for kubuntu?
[22:17] <shadeslayer> !info kynaptic
[22:17] <genii> aj_444: Yes, it's called KPackageKit now (used to be Adept)
[22:17] <shadeslayer> aj_444: there *was* kynaptic but now theres kpackagekit
[22:17] <genii> eg: Add/Remove Applications
[22:18]  * shadeslayer thanks genii for the coffee
[22:18] <genii> shadeslayer: Yer welcome
[22:18] <aj_444> genii: I installed flash using synaptic in gnome.. but I can't figure out how to do it in kde. will the kpackagekit let me do that?
[22:18] <genii> Yes, it will
[22:19] <aj_444> genii: I searched.. and nothing popped up
[22:19] <aj_444> I get a blank screen.
[22:19] <shadeslayer> aj_444: hit enter after typing
[22:19] <aj_444> shadeslayer: I did that.
[22:19] <shadeslayer> aj_444: also install kubuntu-restricted-extras
[22:20] <genii> aj_444: Alternately use command-line in Konsole with something like: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install kubuntu-restricted-extras
[22:20] <genii> !info kubuntu-restricted-extras
[22:21] <genii> Need multiverse enabled for it

[22:36] <lada> Hi, I have a question about keyboard layouts... does anyone know any workaround for the limit of 4 layouts?
[22:37] <lada> It seems that this is a limit of setxkbmap, but it still sucks. Is there a way to have more layouts defined and switch between them easily? Like it was possible in the KDE 3.X days?

[23:22] <Freddy2> didn't know that.. thx
[23:23] <hss> ok i found a solution
[23:24] <cor> hss. "decode"?
[23:24] <hss> i mean avi to mpeg
[23:24] <cor> ahh. try ffmpeg
[23:25] <Freddy2> some time ago konverter used to be a good menconder frontend, but afaik it's outdated
[23:25] <cor> it's all ffmpeg at the end of the day. vlc is a nice front-end for this stuff, too
[23:25] <cor> mplayer, too
[23:26] <cor> but ffmpeg on the command-line is as easy as any
[23:27] <hss> thx cor
[23:30] <hss> hmm i try use ffmpeg  like that ffmpeg -i mvi_3496.avi -b 128k output.avi
[23:30] <hss> but something wrong coz it said unsupported output codec :S
[23:30] <cor> you need to specify vcodec and stuff
[23:31] <cor> e.g. -vcodec mpeg
[23:31] <cor> or whatever was compiled into your ffmpeg
[23:31] <hss> ok will try
[23:32] <cor> and -codec whatever you want for audio
[23:32] <cor> -acodec rather
[23:32] <cor> you can use "-acodec copy" to just copy it as-is (no quotes)
[23:32] <cor> same for vcodec, though that doesn't apply in your case
[23:35] <davidscott> hi everybody. how can i do a conection to an irc chanel? exemple : conect irc.voila.fr (voila.fr is just an exemple) thank by advance for yours answers
[23:35] <davidscott> i never tryed irc
[23:36] <SJr> Argh knetworkmanager sucks, what should I use
[23:37] <avihayb_> nm-app or wicd
[23:37] <davidscott> hi everybody. how can i do a conection to an irc chanel? exemple : conect irc.voila.fr (voila.fr is just an exemple) thank by advance for yours answers
[23:37] <madberry> davidscott what IRC client are you using?
[23:37] <hss> thx cor
[23:37] <davidscott> konversation (i'm french, excuse me for my english)
[23:38]  * cor uninstalls all GUI network managment, so that it will WORK
[23:38] <cor> it's sooooooo easy to do manually!
[23:38] <cor> davidscott, do a connexion where?
[23:38] <madberry> davidscott: goto file->server list and add the server and channels you want to connect to
[23:39] <cor> ahhh in an IRC client?  fer real?
[23:39] <cor> SJr, man:interfaces
 thanks, i see :) but how can i do with a command?
[23:39] <avihayb> cor: how do you manualy find and connect to an encripted wireless network?
[23:40] <madberry> cor yep lol.  davidscott: or hit f2 in Konversation
[23:40] <cor> avihay_, with a few clever lines in /etc/network/interfaces
[23:40] <avihayb> have an online reference I can use?
[23:40] <SJr> what about interfaces?
[23:41] <cor> there's an xlnt readme about setting up encrypted wifi manually, in the docs *somewhere*
[23:41] <madberry> davidscott you can jump channels within a server but you can't connect to a different server with just a command as far as I know. You could hit f7 to use quickconnect.
[23:41] <cor> SJr, as opposed to those nasty gui network management tools.
[23:41] <SJr> cor nah, I want something to switch wifi profiles easily
[23:42] <cor> SJr, that's also doable with /etc/.. but if you must use a GUI, wicd is okay
[23:42] <madberry> use "/join #whateverchannel" without quotes to jump into a different channel
[23:42] <SJr> hmmm k
[23:42] <cor> or just /j #channelname
[23:42] <serprev_> hi
[23:42] <madberry> cor: yeah lol I'm old skool
 great! thanks! it's exactly what i would like do. thanks <madberry> :)
[23:43] <madberry> davidscott: yw
[23:45] <michal__> !restrticted formats
[23:45] <cor> SJr, by "easily", I would mean "do one single thing", which would be to activate script x (which in turn does lots of more long-winded things). Other people consider "easy" to be.. activate some GUI, navigate to correct pane, click a button or two, hide application/applet again. Takes all sorts
[23:45] <michal__> !     restricted
[23:46] <michal__> !flash
[23:47] <cor> for example, setting up my InfraRed dongle with my Nokia was a nightmare. But thanks to the "UNIX way", and the ability to script tasks, it's a nightmare I only had to actually DO one time.
[23:47] <davidscott> fiveteen years on windows, four month on linux. What i did on my life during fiveteen years? linux is a best of exploit system!
[23:48] <cor> It's power, baby!
[23:48] <madberry> Welcome to freedom
[23:50] <davidscott> exactly! it's the word to use better <madberry> :)
[23:52] <cor> Dolphin...    sftp://root@localhost/
[23:59] <davidscott> whois <madberry>
[23:59] <davidscott> whois madberry
[23:59] <davidscott> ok other question, how can i read the informations on a user? with whois?
