| James147 | alvin: with want? we cant help if we dont know whats wrong | 02:03 |
| alvin | i cant play mp3 file in my kubuntu | 02:04 |
| James147 | alvin do you have kubuntu-restricted-extras installed? | 02:04 |
| alvin | no, James | 02:05 |
| quietshaman | HELP! everytime I try to use sudo, i get msh "Must be setuid root" What am I doing wrong...a newby to Linux | 02:05 |
| James147 | alvin: you need to isntall kubuntu-restricted-extras to get mp3 support | 02:06 |
| omnipotentduo | quietshaman: when you installed kubuntu did you set yourself as a system administrator? | 02:07 |
| quietshaman | Also...can't get into kuser to inspect/change user info without using sudo...Catch 22. Can anyone advise please??? | 02:07 |
| quietshaman | Omni...yes as admin. | 02:07 |
| alvin | how James? It's the first time I use Kubuntu | 02:07 |
| omnipotentduo | quietshaman: try simply sudo su | 02:08 |
| omnipotentduo | and paste bin what it says | 02:08 |
| quietshaman | got the sam error msg..."must be setuid to root" | 02:08 |
| quietshaman | "sudo: must be setuid root" is a psate of the error msg | 02:09 |
| James147 | alvin: type into konsole (or anyother terminal application) "sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude install kubuntu-restricted-extras" | 02:09 |
| James147 | alvin: without the quotes :) | 02:10 |
| omnipotentduo | that means you missed something in the install for the administrator | 02:10 |
| James147 | alvin: answer y to any questions | 02:10 |
| alvin | yes | 02:10 |
| alvin | i'm doing | 02:10 |
| quietshaman | Do I need to go back and do a reinstall AGAIN? | 02:10 |
| quietshaman | Is there a way to log on as root? | 02:11 |
| James147 | alvin: after you will have it installed, you will need to restart any application that uses mp3s (amarok) | 02:11 |
| omnipotentduo | quietshaman: yes, ctrl+alt+f1 and you are in tty | 02:11 |
| omnipotentduo | and that will allow a root logon | 02:11 |
| James147 | quietshaman: think you can do it through the recovery console | 02:11 |
| James147 | omnipotentduo: su root will also log you in as root in konsole or anyother terminal | 02:12 |
| asdqwe | winbox on kubuntu?. | 02:12 |
| * omnipotentduo is a slack abuser, getting used to the spoonfed lifestyle | 02:12 | |
| alvin | Thank James, I got it | 02:12 |
| omnipotentduo | good to know tho | 02:13 |
| quietshaman | I'll try the ctl+alt+F1 first...if that does not work I'll do a Recovery boot...thanks Omni and James | 02:13 |
| James147 | quietshaman: you dont need to ctrl+alt+f1 | 02:13 |
| James147 | quietshaman: to login as root from any promt do su root (or even just su i think) | 02:14 |
| James147 | quietshaman: need the root password though | 02:14 |

| Lillymon | I've got a Kopete Notification stuck here. It won't go away no matter what I do, clicking View or Ignore has no effect. How do I kill it without killing Plasma along with the thing? | 02:39 |
| madberry | Lillymon: what is does the notification say? | 02:40 |
| Lillymon | Incoming message from a user, part of the message, View and Ignore buttons. It's just a standard Kopete notification that I see a lot of, but it came up at a time when Plasma was under extreme load, and now neither option will do anything at all. | 02:41 |
| omnipotentduo | restart your X | 02:41 |
| Lillymon | I think that's a bit extreme, restarting Plasma would be my first recourse. But I want to see if I can just kill and restart the notification part. | 02:42 |
| madberry | what omnipotentduo said lol | 02:42 |
| omnipotentduo | i had the same problem i restarted x fixed it. | 02:43 |
| Lillymon | Restarting Plasma fixed it. Still seemed like cracking a walnut with a sledgehammer, but whatever. | 02:44 |
| omnipotentduo | the other fix is unloading your bar, and then rebuild it | 02:45 |
| omnipotentduo | or just your sys tray | 02:45 |
| madberry | It should properly be added to Kubuntu's papercut list | 02:46 |
| Lillymon | Well ideally the notification applet should just not freeze, but hey, maybe KDE 4.3 will do it. I'm on KDE 4.2 here. | 02:46 |
| omnipotentduo | dunno if it does it in 3, haven't had it happen yet. | 02:47 |
| Lillymon | I was told that the notification applet in KDE 4.2 is in a relatively immature state, hence its inflexibility and occasional instability. | 02:48 |
| omnipotentduo | 4.3 is the greatest kde EVER | 02:48 |
| madberry | Actually I'm running 9.10, which has KDE 4.3.1, here it doesn't freeze but it stays in the notifier until you decide to cancel the notification. | 02:48 |
| Laruft | is there a better file manager than dolphin or konquerer? | 02:49 |
| omnipotentduo | dolphin | 02:49 |
| === mirco_ is now known as mirco | ||
| Lillymon | I think Kopete notifications usually stay until you take an action to view or ignore. The problem was that my notification wouldn't do anything no matter what option I took. | 02:49 |
| Lillymon | Also, I am looking forward to KDE 4.3 myself. How is Karmic coming along? Is it pretty stable now? | 02:50 |
| Dragnslcr | You can get 4.3 for 9.04 from the backports PPA | 02:51 |
| Gratz474 | how can i tell if i am using exa or xaa? | 02:51 |
| Gratz474 | i had this problem once before and had to turn on xaa | 02:51 |
| madberry | Lillymon: It is but the Firefox 3.5.4pre still has a lot of problems that is the only thing my laptop will freeze on every once in a while. Other then that it's been pretty stable. | 02:51 |
| Gratz474 | many sites in firefox are really slow and kde4 just feels a bit slow right now | 02:52 |
| Gratz474 | any idea how i can set xaa rendering on ? | 02:52 |
| omnipotentduo | only if you dont thin out the kde extras | 02:52 |
| Lillymon | I've always been wary of backports. People say it's OK if I just revert the changes, but then I ask how to do that, and get a load of instructions for Synaptic. Yeah, very helpful for this KPackageKit user. | 02:52 |
| Lillymon | I get the impression the PPA may interfere with future upgrades. | 02:53 |
| Lillymon | But with Karmic less than a month off and having passed both feature freeze and user interface freeze, I'm starting to wonder how unstable it could possibly be. | 02:54 |
| Gratz474 | anyone? | 02:54 |
| madberry | Lillymon: Like I said it only freezes on Firefox for me at the moment | 02:55 |
| madberry | Gratz474: on emoment please | 02:55 |
| omnipotentduo | that happens when closing a flash player for me | 02:55 |
| Lillymon | Well alpha 6 is two days away, I might make my switch at that point. | 02:55 |
| Gratz474 | madberry: thanks | 02:56 |
| Gratz474 | i had kde4 working fast once but this crappy intel is not so good anyways buts its very laggy right now, its a rendering issue | 02:56 |
| Gratz474 | not sure if i have exa on or xaa right now | 02:57 |
| madberry | Gratz474: try this http://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=111&t=23190#p30101 | 02:57 |
| Lillymon | Also, I keep forgetting to ask. What's the best way to upgrade from to Karmic in Kubuntu? Should I install update-manager? | 02:57 |
| madberry | Lillymon: I'm a fan of the clean install personally. But in tests the update-manager has always worked fine. | 02:58 |
| Gratz474 | madberry: lets see how that works | 02:58 |
| madberry | Gratz474: YW | 02:59 |
| madberry | oops lol didn't mean to shout that | 02:59 |
| Lillymon | Well I always make sure to burn a CD, just to be sure. But I try upgrading first. | 02:59 |
| madberry | Lillymon: If you have issues after the upgrade you can always do a clean install. Make sure to run a backup before doing anything | 03:00 |
| Lillymon | Right, I might give my (now working) USB flash drive a go with this one. Thanks for the help. | 03:03 |
| madberry | Lillymon: yw | 03:03 |

| skreech | And they keep kicking each other off | 05:42 |
| jayne | So there's only supposed to be one, and it's to prevent join floods? | 05:42 |

| zebaztian | how can i add the ppa backports for kubuntu? i already opened the sources list | 05:48 |
| madberry | zebaztian: What are you trying to install? | 05:48 |
| zebaztian | add deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-ppa/backports/ubuntu jaunty main at the end of the sources list? | 05:49 |
| madberry | zebaztian: this should work | 05:49 |
| madberry | jayne: we should only have one floodbot but it seems here and on #ubuntu floodbotk2 keeps oping it's self | 05:50 |
| jayne | on #ubuntu too? | 05:51 |
| madberry | yeah just checked it | 05:51 |
| jayne | we've made it 2 minutes now, so I think it's probably okay | 05:51 |
| jayne | it seemed to be triggering every min | 05:51 |
| madberry | but I don't see the "!netsplit" problem | 05:51 |
| jayne | ... then again | 05:51 |
| jayne | I had to go and say that :-) | 05:51 |
| madberry | lol | 05:52 |
| zebaztian | ok i enabled the backports and added the keys, i am currently on gnome, jaunty, how can i install kubuntu with kde 4.3 ? | 05:52 |
| madberry | thanks jayne | 05:53 |
| jayne | both flodbots are in #ubuntu, but they're not fighting there | 05:54 |
| madberry | zebaztian: in terminal sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop should do the trick | 05:54 |
| maco | DANG still? | 05:54 |
| maco | i thought i muted them here | 05:55 |
| jayne | maco: maybe, I didn't pay that much attention to scrollback | 05:55 |
| madberry | jayne: no they seem to be fine it's just the first time I've seen them both be op | 05:55 |
| madberry | ussually only 1 is op at a time | 05:55 |
| maco | i -v'd both floodbots to try to stop them | 05:55 |

| zebaztian | will that upgrade the sources list changes too? | 06:52 |

| owner_ | no such luck | 06:54 |
| owner_ | let me do a file search for log | 06:54 |
| owner_ | what do you know. The search program says they aer in /var/log/ but nautilus does not display it | 06:55 |
| owner_ | E [14/Sep/2009:22:04:03 -0700] "/etc/cups/ssl/server.crt" is a bad symlink - No such file or directory | 06:57 |

| owner_ | ok found a couple packages that showed up when I searched for cups server | 07:00 |
| owner_ | nothing for cups ssl | 07:00 |
| owner_ | I'm installing them | 07:00 |
| owner_ | don't think it will work | 07:00 |
| owner_ | ok when I run it as owner I get an exit status 15 but when I run it as root I get an exit status of 1 | 07:03 |
| owner_ | what does that mean? | 07:03 |
| owner_ | why is everyone so quiet? | 07:04 |
| ubuntu_ | wow this ubuntu thing aint bad at all | 07:05 |
| ubuntu_ | if i wasnt recording music or gaming id be totally into this | 07:05 |

| ubuntu_ | id love to see some good asio enabled vst-hosts | 07:06 |
| owner_ | asio? | 07:06 |
| ubuntu_ | yeah cant record without that | 07:07 |
| owner_ | what is it? | 07:07 |
| owner_ | I use Audacity to record | 07:07 |
| ubuntu_ | its kind of like audio api for realtime (almost) recording | 07:07 |
| owner_ | I record in Flac and OGG | 07:07 |
| Lord_Drachenblut | owner_: I like using jokosher for recording. In fact i use it for the podcast I do | 07:07 |
| Brhad56 | I don't record. | 07:08 |
| owner_ | is that a Linux program? | 07:08 |
| Lord_Drachenblut | owner_: yea it's in the repo | 07:08 |
| owner_ | so have I confused everyone about my cups problem? | 07:08 |
| Lord_Drachenblut | but I run the version from bzr | 07:08 |
| Lord_Drachenblut | owner_: what's your cups issue? | 07:08 |
| ubuntu_ | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audio_Stream_Input/Output well here it is | 07:08 |
| owner_ | I've tried completly removing it and installing it | 07:08 |
| owner_ | well here is my cups issue. Just a sec | 07:08 |
| owner_ | I'll get you the log | 07:08 |
| ubuntu_ | audacity is currently the best linux recording app? | 07:09 |
| owner_ | E [14/Sep/2009:22:33:51 -0700] "/etc/cups/ssl/server.crt" is a bad symlink - No such file or directory | 07:09 |
| owner_ | I would not know. I just do radio shows | 07:09 |
| owner_ | I just know it does a very good job | 07:09 |
| ubuntu_ | would i get shot if i asked about windows 7 around here? | 07:10 |
| ubuntu_ | opinions? | 07:10 |
| owner_ | Windows 7 is better than Vista but worse than XP | 07:11 |
| owner_ | XP SP2 is the best | 07:11 |
| owner_ | SP3 with additional newer MS updates and software = vista | 07:11 |
| ubuntu_ | ouch | 07:11 |
| ubuntu_ | i was about to install it but somehow installation keeps freezing so i cant go back to xp and here i am using ubuntu livecd | 07:12 |
| ubuntu_ | not a bad OS at all | 07:12 |
| ubuntu_ | :) | 07:12 |
| skreech | zebaztian: yes it should | 07:12 |
| skreech | owner_: both are errors just differnt types I'm guessing exit 15 means you don't have persmissions to start and stop the server | 07:13 |
| skreech | Exit 1 is a more general fault error normally | 07:13 |
| ubuntu_ | n00b question, where do i go to mount my ntfs partition in kubuntu? | 07:14 |
| owner_ | I"ve been windows free for 4 - 5 years now | 07:14 |
| owner_ | good quetion ubuntu | 07:14 |
| owner_ | if you have the ntfs stuff installed in synaptic it should just mount if you look in your media | 07:15 |
| owner_ | KDE still has a media icon right guys? | 07:15 |
| ubuntu_ | it didnt automount | 07:15 |
| skreech | ubuntu_: if you open Dolphin it should be on the left hand side just click on it | 07:16 |
| skreech | owner_: no it's just a part of the File browser now | 07:16 |
| ubuntu_ | i have an old version | 07:16 |
| ubuntu_ | so im not sure what dolphin is | 07:16 |
| Lord_Drachenblut | ubuntu_: what version do you have by chance | 07:17 |
| owner_ | I hate how the new distros can't mount dirty partitions like Knoppix 5.1.1 | 07:17 |
| skreech | ubuntu_: How old? | 07:18 |
| skreech | owner_: They can mostly | 07:18 |
| ubuntu_ | hmm where does it tell me which version i got | 07:18 |
| skreech | you just have to tell it to mount sloppy if it's very badly dmaged | 07:18 |
| owner_ | whenever a NTFS partition is marked dirty it says NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO | 07:18 |
| skreech | otherwise currently they just fix it and mount | 07:18 |
| owner_ | by dirty I mean an incorrect Windows Shutdown | 07:18 |
| skreech | ubuntu_: Not sure which version you are using so the fastest way is lsb_release -a from the command line | 07:19 |
| skreech | press alt+F2 then type konsole | 07:19 |
| skreech | owner_: I know | 07:19 |
| skreech | They just fix it now most of the time | 07:19 |
| ubuntu_ | its feisty fawn :P | 07:20 |
| ubuntu_ | 7.04 | 07:20 |
| skreech | if you are watching the log from the command line it will say found dirty file system attempting fix. mounting | 07:20 |
| skreech | ubuntu_: Woooooow | 07:20 |
| skreech | That's old :) | 07:20 |

| skreech | It died a year ago | 07:20 |
| ubuntu_ | yea those were the days | 07:20 |
| skreech | Still my favourite release though | 07:21 |
| ubuntu_ | okay commandline how do i mount sda\1 whatever | 07:21 |
| skreech | Koala looks good though | 07:21 |
| skreech | mkdir mydrive && sudo mount /dev/sda1 mydrive | 07:21 |
| ubuntu_ | :) thanx skreech | 07:22 |
| ubuntu_ | where can i find it now | 07:22 |
| Lord_Drachenblut | skreech: karmic is treating me pretty good so far.... it actaully fixed an issue i was having with jaunty | 07:22 |
| skreech | ubuntu_: In your home directory under mydrive | 07:23 |
| skreech | It'll add more | 07:23 |
| skreech | such is the state of software | 07:23 |
| skreech | When you hear about the problems with thigns 5 years ago all that stuff works fine now but all this new stuff is soooooo annoying | 07:23 |
| ubuntu__ | how do i gain access to mydisk | 07:24 |
| ubuntu__ | it tells me i dont have permission | 07:24 |
| Lord_Drachenblut | skreech: my problem was caused by upgrading to jaunty since the ati driver was no longer supported and now that problem is gone in karmic | 07:24 |
| skreech | ah umm | 07:24 |
| Lord_Drachenblut | and since i don't have the ati driver anymore suspend to ram works | 07:25 |
| skreech | sudo umount mydisk && sudo mount /dev/sda1 mydisk -o umask=0022 | 07:25 |
| ubuntu__ | nice work skreech, once again u da man | 07:26 |
| zebaztian | can i run kde 4.3 on hardy? | 07:27 |
| asdqwe | how set winbox on kubuntu-desktop | 07:30 |
| skreech | zebaztian: Ermmm I guess technically yes but you'd be flying on your own | 07:30 |
| zebaztian | skreech, how do you mean? | 07:30 |
| madberry | zebaztian: why do you want to do this? 9.10 will have 4.3 and will be out October 29th | 07:31 |
| Lord_Drachenblut | zebaztian: I don't know if 4.3 has been back ported to hardy | 07:31 |
| skreech | zebaztian: There are no packages that are supported for hardy but you can certainly roll your own packages or get the packages installed on hardy | 07:31 |
| skreech | It is FOSS you can do what you like | 07:31 |
| Lord_Drachenblut | madberry: isn't hardy a lts version? | 07:31 |
| skreech | Lord_Drachenblut: It's not but that wouldn't make a difference | 07:32 |
| zebaztian | i'm a noob to linux | 07:32 |
| zebaztian | so i'll make it into a yes no question | 07:32 |
| madberry | Lord_Drachenblut: what skreech said lol | 07:32 |
| zebaztian | yes or no? | 07:34 |
| Lord_Drachenblut | skreech: if it was a lts version I could see why someone might want to stay there but still try to get 4.3 | 07:35 |
| madberry | zebaztian: From kubuntu.org: "Packages for Jaunty are not officially supported. KDE 4.3 will be part of Kubuntu Karmic 9.10 to be officially released this October" | 07:35 |
| madberry | zebaztian: If there are not supported for Jaunty then they will also not be supported for Hardy | 07:35 |
| zebaztian | what does it mean "there are no packages for" ? | 07:36 |
| madberry | Lord_Drachenblut: true | 07:37 |
| Lord_Drachenblut | zebaztian: it means that there are no official packages in the repo's for it | 07:37 |
| zebaztian | apparently there was a problem in installing the ubuntu and kubuntu restricted extras | 07:38 |
| zebaztian | what do i do to fix that? | 07:38 |
| zebaztian | brb | 07:39 |
| madberry | zebaztian: what was the problem error message? | 07:39 |
| zebaztian | ok, i'm having big trouble | 07:43 |
| zebaztian | i logged onto kubunt | 07:43 |
| zebaztian | and kwin crrashes | 07:43 |
| zebaztian | several times in a row and wants to switch over to metacity | 07:43 |
| zebaztian | by the way how od i check which i'm using? | 07:44 |
| zebaztian | i can't change the system settings either | 07:45 |
| zebaztian | it seems to crash | 07:46 |
| zebaztian | can someone help me out | 07:46 |
| skreech | zebaztian: where are you now? | 07:46 |
| zebaztian | i'm kde | 07:46 |
| zebaztian | and kwin crashed | 07:46 |
| zebaztian | and when i try to open the desktop settings in system settings | 07:47 |
| zebaztian | it crashes | 07:47 |
| zebaztian | what the hecks going on | 07:47 |
| skreech | ok | 07:47 |
| zebaztian | i don't get it | 07:47 |
| skreech | open a terminal | 07:47 |
| FloodBotK1 | zebaztian: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 07:47 |
| zebaztian | ok | 07:47 |
| skreech | Lord_Drachenblut: Yes but the point of it being LTS would be gone then wouldn't it? | 07:47 |
| skreech | zebaztian: type kwin --replace | 07:48 |
| skreech | see what it says | 07:48 |
| Lord_Drachenblut | skreech: possibly | 07:48 |
| zebaztian | skreech | 07:49 |
| zebaztian | last time i did that it rendered the whole gui unworkable | 07:49 |
| skreech | crashed? | 07:49 |
| zebaztian | no top bars, no way of diong anything | 07:49 |
| skreech | hmm ok let's work with metacity then :) | 07:49 |
| skreech | see if we can figure out what's going on | 07:49 |
| zebaztian | !pastebin | 07:50 |
| ubottu | pastebin is a service to post multiple-lined texts so you don't flood the channel. Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use http://tinyurl.com/imagebin | !pastebinit to paste directly from command line | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic | 07:50 |
| skreech | what does sudo apt-get dist-upgrade say ? | 07:50 |
| zebaztian | http://paste.ubuntu.com/271357/ | 07:50 |
| skreech | zebaztian: woah seems that you don't have some variables set | 07:52 |
| zebaztian | what does that mean? | 07:53 |
| skreech | When you login you have some variables set to make your environment have some idea what is going on | 07:53 |
| zebaztian | uh huh, why are they not set? | 07:53 |
| skreech | when you login to the command line for instance it sets $HOME to your home directory | 07:54 |
| skreech | GNOME has some Gnome Environment variables As does KDE | 07:54 |
| skreech | they are set by the first process which in this case should be kdeiit | 07:54 |
| skreech | init | 07:54 |
| skreech | did you try sudo apt-get dist-upgrade ? | 07:55 |
| skreech | zebaztian: There? | 08:02 |
| skreech | Maybe not | 08:03 |
| zebaztian | skreech, it kicked me out, when i closed the temrinal where kwin was | 08:11 |
| zebaztian | i had to get out as i couldn't anytthing eyt again | 08:12 |
| skreech | zebaztian: Errrm | 08:12 |
| zebaztian | i'm on gnome now | 08:12 |
| skreech | yeah ok | 08:12 |
| zebaztian | so basically | 08:12 |
| zebaztian | if i install hardy | 08:12 |
| skreech | zebaztian: ok before you logged in what did you do? | 08:12 |
| zebaztian | i can't just add the new repos to its sources list? | 08:12 |
| zebaztian | apt won't work | 08:12 |
| zebaztian | right? | 08:13 |
| zebaztian | how do you mean what did i do? | 08:13 |
| skreech | no they feed out based on jaunty. You can download the packages and install them regardles sbut you might need to update underlying packages | 08:13 |
| skreech | Well you have the login screen. What did you do before you went to login to KDE? | 08:13 |
| zebaztian | reboot? i'm not getting you before the login scren the computer is just starting up | 08:14 |
| skreech | no after the login screen comes up | 08:14 |
| skreech | how did you switch to KDE? | 08:14 |
| zebaztian | i chose session | 08:15 |
| zebaztian | and selected kde | 08:15 |
| zebaztian | why? | 08:15 |
| skreech | Ok just checking on why the terminal would log you out | 08:15 |
| skreech | when you login to KDE what comes up? | 08:15 |
| zebaztian | a notice | 08:15 |
| zebaztian | that kwin crashed | 08:16 |
| zebaztian | if i did a clean install of hardy | 08:16 |
| zebaztian | would you help me install kde 4.3? | 08:16 |
| skreech | that's all no background or an panels? | 08:16 |
| skreech | Why are you interested in hardy? | 08:16 |
| zebaztian | i think it might have to do with this driver i installed, it's been a pain | 08:17 |
| zebaztian | the last day and a half i've been dealing with it | 08:17 |
| zebaztian | an ATI driver | 08:17 |
| zebaztian | i can't even enable compiz on gnome | 08:17 |
| skreech | ha ha that would probably be it | 08:17 |
| skreech | hold on then give me a second. | 08:17 |
| zebaztian | and if i use the os suggested one, my computer overheats and freezes when watching a movie | 08:17 |
| skreech | tell me if you have ~?.kde directory | 08:18 |
| zebaztian | i think hardy is better for my radeon 3200 card | 08:18 |
| zebaztian | how can i check | 08:18 |
| skreech | just open nautilus and go to ~/.kde | 08:18 |
| skreech | or go to your home directory and press Ctrl+H | 08:18 |
| zebaztian | yes i am ther enow | 08:19 |
| zebaztian | autostart folder | 08:19 |
| zebaztian | cache-jaunty folder | 08:19 |
| skreech | ok open share/config/kwinrc | 08:20 |
| zebaztian | env and share folder | 08:20 |
| skreech | Tell me if you see a [Compositing] section when you open it | 08:20 |
| zebaztian | [$Version] | 08:20 |
| zebaztian | update_info=kwin_focus2.upd:kwin_focus2,kwin.upd:kde3.0r1,kwin.upd:kde3.2Xinerama,kwin3_plugin.upd:kde3.2,kwin_on_off.upd:kwin_on_off,kwin_focus1.upd:kwin_focus [Compositing] Enabled=false | 08:20 |
| skreech | Hmm it's disabled already | 08:21 |
| zebaztian | skreech, not to be a pain, but as i said i've been pretty much working on my laptop for the past two days something which i'm not used to | 08:21 |
| zebaztian | would you help me out to install kde 4.3 when i install hardy? | 08:21 |
| skreech | I could but it's probably just as painful | 08:22 |
| zebaztian | great! | 08:22 |
| zebaztian | brb | 08:22 |
| skreech | you are going to want to save your /var/cache/apt/archives directory | 08:22 |

| allan8904 | I booted up my computer and everything was normal, then about after 2 minutes all the applications that i launched's text has been replaced by random "------ - - - -- - --- --" everwhere so i cant read the buttons or menus or anything. i tried deleting the .kde folder and it still does the same thing after reboot. Any ideas? | 09:29 |

| [-Haza-]1 | Hey folks. it looks like the KDE "dashbloard" (?) has crashed here and failed to come back. Any way i can restart it without logging out? | 10:53 |
| [-Haza-]1 | I was kinda busy when it crashed | 10:53 |
| frozen[fark] | Ok, here goes-- I m considering a personal file server, and I wanted a GUI on top of it. Would kubuntu be a good choice, or go with ubuntu? | 10:54 |
| allan8904 | frozen[fark]: Go with xubuntu | 10:55 |
| allan8904 | frozen[fark]: very lightwiehgt and all you need | 10:55 |
| frozen[fark] | whats the main difference btwn k and x | 10:56 |
| bazhang | frozen[fark], one uses kde4, the other xfce4 | 10:56 |
| allan8904 | frozen[fark]:trust me you dont need all teh boat (on offence) that KDE has for a server | 10:57 |
| frozen[fark] | allright | 10:58 |
| frozen[fark] | thanks for the advice-- appreciate it | 10:58 |
| allan8904 | frozen[fark]: no probs | 10:59 |
| [-Haza-]1 | Anyone? :( Save me from restarting | 10:59 |
| Dragnslcr | [-Haza-]1- I think the command you need to run is plasma-desktop | 11:03 |
| pqoi | hi | 11:10 |
| [-Haza-]1 | Dragnslcr: Worth a try :) | 11:10 |
| Tm_T | frozen[fark]: well, if you're short of resources, then it's worth picking lightweight desktop | 11:11 |
| [-Haza-]1 | Dragnslcr: Ahh, plasma did it :) | 11:11 |
| [-Haza-]1 | Cheeeeeeeeeeeeeeers! | 11:11 |
| Tm_T | frozen[fark]: but if your server is only sharing files and have plenty of power, well, then it doesn't really matter I'd say | 11:11 |
| frozen[fark] | Tm_T its 2ghz, 256mb ram (old, to say the least). gonna use it just for file and media sharing | 11:17 |
| frozen[fark] | so yeah, looksl ike im going down the xubuntu route | 11:17 |
| Tm_T | frozen[fark]: hmm, XFCE isn't that much lighter, I would recommend something more lighter if you are willing to try, for example LXDE, which is (in default session) less RAM-hogging but also less functionality (by itself) | 11:31 |
| frozen[fark] | ill stick with Xubuntu since its installing as we speak | 11:31 |
| frozen[fark] | i ll see how it performs | 11:31 |
| Tm_T | frozen[fark]: you can install LXDE or whatever you like next to it and just select the session you like in login screen then | 11:32 |

| solifugus | It is just severely annoying as hell | 15:00 |
| brennan | ??? | 15:01 |

| brennan | anyone know how to upgrade wine | 15:14 |
| brennan | i got 1.0.0 | 15:14 |
| brennan | and my emulators run slowly | 15:15 |
| solifugus | brennan: you've got to understand that if your wine isn't working and everyone else's is working then they are all passed out as a result of it. | 15:17 |
| brennan | isnt wine 1.0.0 old though when i type upgrade in it wont load some -generic type files | 15:18 |
| brennan | solifugus: isnt wine 1.0.0 old though when i type upgrade in it wont load some -generic type files | 15:18 |
| brennan | Mamarok: u there? | 15:20 |
| brennan | how do you unblock updates | 15:27 |
| genii | brennan: You should ask in ##winehq channel for your issue. Also note it is not polite to randomly ping or highlight people about a problem | 15:27 |
| brennan | ??????? | 15:27 |
| genii | brennan: Updates are usually blocked when it involves a kernel upgrade | 15:27 |
| brennan | i have the newest kerne | 15:28 |
| brennan | kernel | 15:28 |
| genii | brennan: You should try something like: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade and then see if any blocked updates after that | 15:29 |
| brennan | how do you check a version number | 15:42 |
| simon__ | i would like to know what 'version' ob kubuntu I have, couldnt get the answer on the net, as it it very easy to help me, i would be pleased if you do so :) | 15:48 |
| genii | brennan: Of the OS, of an app... ? | 15:48 |
| simon__ | (aptitude mentions jaunty when updating) | 15:48 |
| brennan | OS | 15:48 |
| genii | simon__: lsb_release -a | 15:48 |
| genii | brennan: See above msg to simon__ then | 15:48 |
| simon__ | okay - thanks. got version 9.04 | 15:49 |
| simon__ | which version is the current stable? (couldnt find that info on the web either) | 15:49 |
| brennan | 9.04 | 15:49 |
| simon__ | oh - now i found the same number :) (sry) | 15:50 |
| genii | simon__: 9.04 is latest stable, 9.10 (Karmic Koala) is the next release which is still in alpha | 15:50 |
| simon__ | my problem is that the kde kicker disappeared and no thread i have read on the web could help me! | 15:50 |
| simon__ | (i cant even install kicker!!) | 15:50 |
| simon__ | (and there is no /usr/bin/kicker or kickerrc) | 15:51 |
| brennan | whats kicker | 15:51 |
| alvin_ | hi erverybody, have Skype for Kubuntu?? | 15:51 |
| bittin- | alvin_: yes | 15:51 |
| mike_mcginn | no kicker here and everything works great | 15:51 |
| alvin_ | how can i setup it? | 15:52 |
| mike_mcginn | I don't think KDE 4.3 uses kicker | 15:52 |
| brennan | listen i cant get my wificard to work any ideas | 15:52 |
| brennan | ? | 15:52 |
| bittin- | alvin_: there is an Ubuntu Deb on http://www.skype.com install that | 15:52 |
| genii | simon__: Maybe see posting #3 here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1141713 | 15:52 |
| brennan | genii: how do check an app for a version | 15:53 |
| genii | brennan: Usually it's by package: apt-cache policy <packagename> | 15:55 |
| simon__ | i tried so earlier... but how could you rebuild your kicker app with widgets!? i didnt find a windo widget.. or the usual things inside a kicker app- | 15:55 |
| alvin_ | excute me, i have one question again!! :D | 15:55 |
| simon__ | what would be the reason to remove the kicker app from the .deb servers ? | 15:55 |
| alvin_ | flash for kubuntu? | 15:56 |
| genii | simon__: There is no more kicker since kde moved to 4 | 15:56 |
| genii | !flash | alvin_ | 15:56 |
| ubottu | alvin_: To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - See also !Restricted and !Gnash | 15:56 |
| brennan | they got amarok | 15:56 |
| simon__ | genii: oh! | 15:56 |
| brennan | listen how do you run wireless??? | 15:56 |
| alvin_ | oh, thank ubottu so much | 15:56 |
| simon__ | but.... it really looked like kicker... | 15:56 |
| simon__ | .... and now its gone :( maybe i have to use the ugly perlpanel.... | 15:57 |
| brennan | i installed gcom and i cant find globe totter on the find bar | 15:57 |
| rosco_y | I'd like to create a logo, and I don't have much design experience--can anyone recommend a cool software I might use? | 15:57 |
| genii | simon__: Yes, but it's not. See posting #3 on the link I gave earlier for how to rebuild your kde4 panel | 15:57 |
| genii | !info gcom | 15:58 |
| ubottu | gcom (source: gcom): Option GlobeTrotter and Vodafone datacard control tool. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.3-1 (jaunty), package size 35 kB, installed size 132 kB | 15:58 |
| yuriy | rosco_y: inkscape | 15:58 |
| genii | brennan: I'm no help on that one, sorry | 15:58 |
| simon__ | yes - thank you again for the link - but as i said... i tried to rebuilt it - but couldn't get it. everything i can activate as widget (or whatever these apps call themselves) looks a lot different than befor :-| | 15:58 |
| rosco_y | yuriy: is it easy to learn? | 15:58 |
| yuriy | rosco_y: you can do some basic things easily, but any graphics software is at least going to take some exploring | 15:59 |
| brennan | i did all that and now i cant find it on my system\ | 15:59 |
| alvin_ | ubotu: Flash for ubuntu is work on kubuntu? | 15:59 |
| genii | alvin_: It's the same procedure, yes | 15:59 |
| rosco_y | yuriy: thank you. I see that I have the "Inkscape Vector Graphics Editor" installed, is that what you are recommending? | 16:00 |
| yuriy | rosco_y: yep | 16:00 |
| rosco_y | yuriy: Thank you--I'll give it my best | 16:00 |
| brennan | can you openan app from the konsole | 16:01 |
| genii | brennan: Yes. Just type it's name and hit enter from in Konsole, or from the text entry field after you hit alt-f2 | 16:02 |
| simon__ | i startet all those widgets or applets and they somehow look like the macOS ones... all sepperated, not like the usual taskbar... could someone give me a hint on how the group them into on bar at the lower side of the screen? (please) | 16:02 |
| genii | Bleh, work | 16:04 |
| brennan_ | i typed it in , pressed enter, and it wont run\ | 16:04 |
| simon__ | i already made a screenshot to show what i can see her (really - like mac os) but i dont know where to upload... ther must be some pastebin stuff for that.. | 16:05 |
| genii | !paste | simon__ - use the second url here | 16:06 |
| ubottu | simon__ - use the second url here: For posting multi-line texts into the channel, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com (or !pastebinit for CLI) | For pasting !screenshots use http://tinyurl.com/imagebin Please give us the URLs for your posts! | 16:06 |

| simon__ | this is what it looks like when i try to rebuild a kicker like menu bar with the cashew thing and their widget apps | 16:08 |
| simon__ | I already tried to find some preferences to make it look like before - but i couldnt find any. | 16:08 |
| simon__ | I just found out how to enable a control bar (in german: kontrollleiste) | 16:11 |
| simon__ | (wow) | 16:11 |
| simon__ | oh... now i got it... (i think) thanks for your help!!! | 16:12 |
| simon__ | bye | 16:12 |
| genii | brennan: What did you type in the terminal? | 16:13 |
| brennan | i just closed the konsole | 16:14 |
| brennan | what do you do? | 16:15 |
| alvin_ | ubuntu is great | 16:16 |

| varanus | just a curiosity, does the side mouse buttons works on konqueror? | 16:20 |
| brennan | genii: cool um anyways i got an old hp and it has those buttons on the top of the key board | 16:25 |
| brennan | genii: well one key is wifi | 16:25 |
| brennan | genii: but it doesnt work | 16:25 |
| brennan | the wifi | 16:26 |
| brennan | and the light doesnt work | 16:26 |
| muesli | is there any way of controlling the cpu fan? | 16:27 |
| genii | brennan: The switches which turn on and off wifi on laptops are usually hard-wired stuff. So it means normally that if toggling it isn't doing anything as per lights/activity, then you need the driver/adapter working before that | 16:27 |
| muesli | everytime after resuming from sleep, (k)ubuntu decides to keep my cpu fan running at 300 rpm | 16:27 |
| muesli | making my cpu heat up to almost 100 centidegrees | 16:27 |

| alvin_ | :D | 16:36 |
| brennan | genii: it said the installer could only be used on vist do you know how to get it over | 16:36 |
| brennan | or do they have driver on the ubuntu web site | 16:37 |
| genii | brennan: What installer? | 16:37 |
| brennan | for that wireless driver | 16:37 |
| genii | brennan: First try to find out what hardware you have. the command: lspci -nn will normally report stuff including your wifi (if it's on the usb bus then lsusb) | 16:38 |
| genii | brennan: Then some googling for the (####:####) part which is vendor:device code and Ubuntu usually yields some results as to what native driver it can use | 16:39 |

| genii | brennan: Whats installed but won't run? The Vista driver for your wifi card? | 17:11 |
| brennan | genii: no i found the ubuntu version | 17:12 |
| brennan | is called ndiswrapper but now i dont know how to operate it | 17:12 |
| genii | brennan: ndiswrapper is not an ubuntu driver, it's a compatability layer to allow you to use XP windows drivers for your card under linux | 17:13 |
| genii | (eg: last resort) | 17:13 |
| brennan | genii: bum deal so what do i do | 17:14 |

| JuJuBee | I have a computer that seems frozen. the mouse moves, but clicking on anything does nothing. I can ssh to the computer fine and top shows almost no cpu/mem utilization. What should I do? | 18:03 |
| * genii makes another pot of coffee and settles in | 18:03 | |
| genii | JuJuBee: Did you try F5 (screen refresh) | 18:03 |
| JuJuBee | yes, nothing | 18:03 |
| genii | JuJuBee: I'd probably go for the old sudo /etc/init.d/kdm restart | 18:04 |
| JuJuBee | This happened the other day under similar circumstances. My student is using a program called PacketTracer from CISCO. The student next to him is also using it without any problems. | 18:05 |
| JuJuBee | I would like to figure out how to prevent this as well as save his data. | 18:05 |
| bodly | JuJuBee: you could look in the student's $HOME/.xsession-errors. That might have some clues as to the problem | 18:06 |
| JuJuBee | last 20 lines show .... kwin: X Error (error: <unknown>[DAMAGE+0], request: XDamageDestroy[DAMAGE+2], resource: 0x140b2a8) | 18:08 |
| JuJuBee | mean anything to you? | 18:08 |
| JuJuBee | I don't understand most of what is in that file. beyond me | 18:10 |
| === koh__ is now known as RussellAlan | ||
| bodly | yeah, it's kind of gibberish to me too. sometimes the problem is straightforward like file permission problems. | 18:12 |
| genii | JuJuBee: Offhand I'd say X was having a problem destroying some previously opened window. But thats just my best guess. | 18:13 |
| JuJuBee | I guess restart kdm then... | 18:14 |
| bodly | JuJuBee: does it ever lock up like this when running another program? or just with PacketTracer? | 18:15 |
| JuJuBee | Woa, I resarted kdm and the screen did nothing. Still same state. Mouse moves but cannot click on anything. | 18:15 |
| JuJuBee | bodly: It is a new school year and only happened 2x now. both times it was packet tracer. | 18:16 |
| bodly | JuJuBee: that's not enough data points to determine if that app is the cause or not. | 18:17 |
| bodly | JuJuBee: kdm is probably not responding. try sudo killall kdm;sudo /etc/init.d/kdm restart | 18:18 |
| JuJuBee | done, screen unchanged. | 18:18 |
| bodly | ok, try it with killall -9 | 18:19 |
| tuxxy | anybody seen stdin | 18:19 |
| tuxxy | !seen stdin | 18:19 |
| ubottu | I have no seen command | 18:19 |
| genii | tuxxy: Not for ages | 18:19 |
| tuxxy | ye I thought so | 18:19 |
| JuJuBee | bodly: you mean sudo killall -9 kdm? | 18:20 |
| tuxxy | damn hes the author of a plugin I am trying to get working | 18:20 |
| bodly | yes | 18:20 |
| JuJuBee | no change | 18:20 |
| bodly | JuJuBee: that's very odd. I'd probably just reboot. | 18:20 |
| jerkman | hey, im trying to get a joystick working under linux, now call me crazy, but it is for an amiga and it just so happens to fit a serial port PERFECTLY... is there a driver and does anyone have any experiaence with this sort of thing?? | 18:21 |
| genii | JuJuBee: Hm... is dmesg output showing anything useful? (don't paste it in channel) | 18:21 |
| RussellAlan | How do I go about reading media/data off other partition? eg. Windows | 18:22 |
| bodly | jerkman: i'd be surprised if there wasn't a serial joystick driver. | 18:22 |
| JuJuBee | genii: not really. | 18:22 |
| genii | jerkman: The pinouts from an RS-232 (PC serial port) and an old Amiga/C-64/Atari joysticks are not compatible | 18:22 |
| JuJuBee | sudo reboot did absolutely nothing. | 18:22 |
| JuJuBee | brb, fire drill | 18:22 |
| jerkman | genii, dure, but can i remap my serial? | 18:23 |
| jerkman | *sure | 18:23 |
| jerkman | it is 9 pin, 4 directional with 2 buttons... | 18:24 |
| genii | jerkman: Maybe look at http://www.atariarchives.org/cfn/05/07/0044.php | 18:24 |
| jerkman | plus i only paid £2 for it... | 18:25 |
| genii | jerkman: As for the software part, you're on your own | 18:25 |
| jerkman | i want to use it in mame/advancemame... | 18:25 |
| genii | bodly: I'm wondering if JuJuBee is actually ssh'd into the right box | 18:25 |
| bodly | genii: yeah, i was thinking that myself | 18:26 |
| jerkman | ok, i dont think im talking abotu the same serial here, im talking db9 - 9 pin | 18:27 |
| jerkman | no 25. | 18:27 |
| jerkman | brb later, | 18:28 |

| W4gn3r | I'm having a problem with language-packs | 18:34 |
| bodly | varanus: remove them or rename them. if you have a lot of customizitations, i'd just rename them. | 18:34 |
| wuebc | whats the command to install things? | 18:34 |
| W4gn3r | conflict between language-pack-kde-pt and language-pack-pt trying to overwrite phonon-(somthing) | 18:34 |

| W4gn3r | wuebc: if so, sudo dpkg -i package-name.deb | 18:35 |
| varanus | ok, ty bodly. i'm out to try it | 18:35 |
| bodly | varanus: good luck | 18:36 |
| JuJuBee | genii : yes, I am | 18:40 |
| JuJuBee | the user logged in has open processes and he is only logged into 1 box. | 18:40 |
| JuJuBee | Any other ideas before I pull the plug? | 18:40 |
| JuJuBee | Hmmm. still doesn't explain why when I sudo reboot nothing happens. | 18:40 |
| FloodBotK1 | JuJuBee: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 18:40 |
| bodly | JuJuBee: yeah, if it's working well enough to let you ssh in, i'm surprised you can't reboot it. | 18:41 |
| varanus | bodly, i've tried "sudo apt-get remove plasma-desktoprc plasma-desktop-appletsrc" and it says unable to find package | 18:41 |
| JuJuBee | is my only option now to pull the plug? | 18:41 |
| genii | JuJuBee: does top show any zombies? | 18:41 |
| brennan_ | can any one help me | 18:42 |
| bodly | varanus: they're not packages, they're files. by default they should be in $HOME/.kde/share/config/ | 18:42 |
| JuJuBee | genii: it shows 1 zombie, how do I tell which one it is? | 18:42 |
| varanus | ups, ok, i'm going to retry, ty again bodly | 18:42 |
| genii | JuJuBee: Use ps command , the zombie will have a Z in status column | 18:43 |
| brennan_ | help i cant get an m player up | 18:44 |
| JuJuBee | root 20565 0.0 0.0 0 0 ? Z< 13:15 0:00 [Xorg] <defunct> | 18:44 |
| genii | JuJuBee: Yup. So you have to sudo kill -9 20565 | 18:46 |
| JuJuBee | didn't work | 18:47 |
| JuJuBee | still there. | 18:47 |

| varanus | bodly: i've removed the plasma-appletrc and i have a partial desktop without window borders etc. could i remove even plasmarc as i haven't found the plasma-desktoprc? | 18:50 |
| brennan_ | any one help | 18:50 |
| t__ | hi, can anyone help with 1080p playback in kubuntu? xmbc doesn't work | 18:52 |
| bodly | varanus: hmm... is plasma running now? | 18:52 |
| bodly | varanus: the config files changed from plasmarc to plasma-desktoprc and plasma-appletsrc to plasma-desktop-appletsrc in 4.3.0. so if those are not there, then plasma-desktop is not running long enough to write out the new files. | 18:54 |
| === liberfiasco is now known as memenode | ||
| varanus | sorry bodly i got stuck cause i have no window bordersand i couldn't write, anyway it seems i got the old files cause the names lack desktop part | 18:57 |
| varanus | now i have only the lower panel without the taskbar, and the quassel window working | 18:58 |
| bodly | varanus: np. are all your kdebase and kdelibs packages at the same version? | 18:59 |
| varanus | i can access the kmenu too | 18:59 |
| varanus | i think | 18:59 |
| varanus | bodly: i'm not sure, how i can check that? | 18:59 |
| bodly | varanus: open a konsole (hit alt-F2 and type konsole) and type apt-cache policy kdebase-workspace kdelibs5 | 19:03 |
| bodly | varanus: they should both be 4.3.1 | 19:03 |
| W4gn3r | bodly: do you know what I should do if 2 language packages are in conflict? | 19:06 |
| W4gn3r | like, trying to overwrite the same file | 19:06 |
| W4gn3r | (I wasn't having this problem before) | 19:06 |
| W4gn3r | updating a fresh install just for the record | 19:07 |
| bodly | W4gn3r: well, you can force the overwrite to happen. sudo dpkg -i --force-overwrite /path/to/packages | 19:09 |
| W4gn3r | I should download it directly then am I right? | 19:10 |
| bodly | W4gn3r: they're probably already in /var/cache/apt/archives/ | 19:11 |
| W4gn3r | do you know which of these (language-base-pt / language-base-kde-pt ) I should force overwrite? | 19:12 |
| bodly | if you're using kde, i guess i'd suggest language-base-kde-pt | 19:13 |
| W4gn3r | I see | 19:13 |
| W4gn3r | thanks dude! | 19:13 |
| bodly | any time | 19:14 |
| === mike is now known as Guest46656 | ||
| varanus | bodly i tried it, it said that i hadn't installed kdebase-workspace 4.3.1 and installed the kdelibs5. so i did sudo apt-get install kdebase-workspace | 19:15 |
| bodly | varanus: did that fix it? | 19:16 |
| varanus | but after installing it it continues saying not installed kdebase-workspace :S | 19:16 |
| varanus | there are some packages i think that depend on 4.2.2, cause i tried reinstalling and turned out that some packsges need the 4.2.2 which won't be installed | 19:17 |
| varanus | bodly i'll try another moment cause i have to go for the moment. i appreciate very much for your help | 19:18 |
| bodly | varanus: sorry we couldn't get this resolved | 19:19 |
| bodly | varanus: good luck. | 19:19 |
| varanus | now i thought that i haven't restart normally after installing kdebase-workspace, i only restarted the interface | 19:19 |
| varanus | i'm going to restart and hope to fix it. ty again very much, i'll retry in an other moment | 19:20 |
| bodly | if i'm around when you try again i'll be happy to help. | 19:20 |

| mm_work | Or more to the point, why it wouldnt come with a simple DB plugin where contacts (and calendar,etc) could be stored and shared. | 20:02 |

| BluesKaj | hey genii , karmic just broke on my desktop, even lost the kernel list in grub :( | 20:34 |
| genii | BluesKaj: Ouch | 20:34 |
| BluesKaj | yeah, don't think it's retrievable | 20:35 |
| genii | BluesKaj: If you boot to livecd, can you see any files on the partitions? | 20:36 |
| BluesKaj | there are some yes | 20:36 |
| BluesKaj | i can't see the files themselves just the space the data is using | 20:37 |
| genii | BluesKaj: All i can suggest is ask around in +1 perhaps | 20:39 |
| BluesKaj | +1 is loaded with ppl who have their own version of broken karmic | 20:40 |
| bodly | BluesKaj: it's fun to watch them try anything anyone suggests. | 20:42 |
| BluesKaj | bodly: I use this laptop as sort of backup in case the desktop crashes, which it just did so I'll just wait it out until the devs fix the prob . Tome even for an alpha they're loading the repos with too many apps that aren't properly tested . | 20:44 |
| bodly | BluesKaj: to me alpha is when you're supposed to start getting stable, not stop being stable. :-) | 20:45 |
| BluesKaj | yeah bodly , it wasn't too bad until the last 2 weeks, too much of a hurry to get stuff out. | 20:47 |
| bodly | BluesKaj: yeah, i would never run the alpha (or pre-alpha since i updated to karmic as soon as the repository opened) unless I had another computer that was stable. | 20:48 |
| BluesKaj | I think they should block the repos or at least withdraw the troublesome apps before more ppl unknowingly break their setups | 20:51 |
| bodly | that would make sense. looks like they're working feverishly to get things working. but a bunch more people with broken boxes would not be fun to deal with. | 20:53 |

| dwidmann | why in the world would my cd tray be sucking the tray back in right after I opened it? | 22:04 |
| dwidmann | I seem to recall something about it being a major problem months ago ... but seeing it doing it intermittently recently has been discouraging | 22:06 |
| chx | i have a mosue with lots of buttons (goes up to 9 according to xev although physically it's just 4 + wheel which adds 3 so it skipped two buttons) and i have seen oh so many ways of setting up the mosue: fdi, imwheel, xorg.conf, xmacro and what not | 22:14 |
| chx | what's the one to use in a modern Kubuntu? ( i run karmic btw) | 22:14 |
| genii | !buttons | 22:14 |
| ubottu | Enabling extra mouse buttons: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ManyButtonsMouseHowto - Enabling serial mouse: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SerialMouseHowto | 22:14 |
| chx | i read that | 22:16 |
| chx | See the Wikis referenced below for details on what you can do with your imwheelrc or .imwheelrc file | 22:16 |
| chx | what wikis? | 22:16 |
| chx | there are no wikis references anywhere. | 22:16 |
| chx | or i missed them | 22:17 |
| genii | chx: Likely no one's gotten around to writing them yet, unfortunately | 22:17 |
| chx | also why imwheel and not say xvkbd ...? | 22:17 |
| chx | and then one more queston which seemingly is nowhere to be found: how can i map a keypress to a button press and the key release to the button release? like using a buttonfor alt+tab | 22:18 |
| genii | chx: Sorry, I'm not much help in that dept. I generally just leave the default setup pretty much alone | 22:19 |
| jussi01 | chx: system settings -> keyboard and mouse -> keyboard shortcuts | 22:23 |
| chx | jussi01: if i press "button 9" for example, it does not do anything in there but let me retry | 22:23 |
| jussi01 | oh, hang on, you need something like btnx then | 22:23 |
| chx | right | 22:23 |
| chx | another solution! | 22:24 |
| jussi01 | I assume logitech mouse? | 22:24 |
