Have been googling all day. IPs are static. `ifconfig` says it's /up/ but it can't ping its router. `route -n` is OK. Ideas? [00:29] Hi Folks, where do i find default background image of plasma widgets? Those Circles from Air theme? [00:29] Anarch: I recommand you try runing from another OS or a live CD just to check that it isn't the hardware's fault. other then that I have no ideas [00:29] avihayb_: Trying a livecd is not a bad idea. I will. [00:32] Fanfare: I've installed kde3 and it stores them in /opt/kde3/share/wallpapers/ I'm guessing kde4's folder isn't all that different [00:33] avihayb_: ill check, but i dont mean the bubbles but the cycles [00:33] I beg your pardon? [00:35] avihayb_: not the desktop wallpaper. I m looking for the background of most plasma widgets. [00:35] oh [00:36] I suggest you ask google how to create a plasma theme [00:37] avihayb_: good idea, thx === fred_ is now known as Guest76757 [00:45] avihayb_: When I boot a livecd I have no working net. It's been so long since I did this I'm not sure what I should see. eth0:avahi has a link-local address, but that doesn't let me ping my router, which is 192.168.1.1. I have no IPv4 address on eth0 though I do have IPv6. [00:46] What /should/ happen when a Hardy livecd is booted on a system hooked up to a BEFSR41 router? [00:46] try to request an adress from your dhcp server: sudh dhclient [00:47] if you have eth:avahi then you were assigned an address in the 164.186.0.0 range (or something like that) [00:48] *"sudo dhclient" [00:48] and that means that you faild to get an address from a dhcp server === nino is now known as ArCCoZ [01:17] hello folks! [01:21] Hi [01:26] Is anybody having problems with enabling compiz effects on kubuntu 9.04? [01:28] Ev0luti0n_: why would you do that? [01:29] Because i like it... [01:29] I am talking about the desktop effects [01:29] that come embedded with kde [01:29] tells me that xcomposite and x.... are not installed [01:29] can't solve this thing! [01:29] searched everywhere online [01:30] imo kwin = compiz [01:30] in kubuntu, the embedded compositor system is kwin's [01:30] compiz is an "external" system [01:30] erm [01:30] sorry for the confusion i am newbie [01:31] "compositing is not supported on your system. Required X extensions (xcomposite and xdamage) are not available" [01:31] I tried searching around for packages to install this manually with no luck [01:31] you are in the right place, no need to apologize. may I dare guess that you have an intel grafix card? [01:32] *graphics [01:32] also checked on ubuntu foruns, google... did everything i found on the forum regarding this problem and nothing [01:32] just go to system configuration -> Desktop -> All effects, and play with those options [01:32] you'll forget compiz in no time [01:32] avihayb_: XFX geforce 8800 gts 650mb [01:32] *640mb [01:33] W4gn3r: i can't access those tabs| [01:33] *! [01:33] are you saying that you can't activate the kwin effects? [01:33] yes! [01:33] or just compiz? [01:33] kwin effects [01:33] ok, wird, when I installed compiz, I didn't encounter thease dependency problems [01:33] oh [01:33] the tabs are unaccessible [01:33] even after you click enable effects? [01:34] i can't click because the tabs are gray [01:34] i can't access them [01:34] Been like this all the time [01:34] he is not talking about the tabs [01:34] but the option to activate the effects [01:34] also gray [01:34] lol [01:35] or unavailable, if you prefer [01:35] did you install the nvidia proprietary driver? [01:36] yes i did [01:36] haven't uninstalled it to try it out though [01:36] Do you think it conflicts with kwins? [01:36] my brother had a problem like that before [01:36] with his audio instead [01:36] reinstalling the driver won't solve [01:37] hmm [01:37] audio never gave any problems! [01:37] if you're having a problem with driver [01:37] then recompiling the module seems to solve [01:37] but idk how to do that [01:38] I just installed the new kernel in his computer [01:38] :| [01:38] then nvidia modules were compiled during the process [01:39] that's too advanced for me [01:39] just open the konsole [01:39] and type sudo apt-get upgrade [01:39] see if there are some packages that can't be upgraded [01:39] there are [01:40] but are referent to mplayer [01:40] weird [01:40] type this [01:41] echo $(uname -r) [01:42] could you paste the output here? [01:42] 2.6.28.11 [01:43] you mean 2.6.28.11-generic [01:43] 2.6.31-10-generic here [01:43] lol [01:43] robin0800: are you sure? [01:43] yes [01:43] 31.10 [01:44] mine is 2.6.28.15 [01:44] Ev0luti0n_: actually there IS a new version for your kernel [01:44] W4gn3r, this is alpha 6 from yesterday [01:44] O.o [01:45] i don't think i wan't to try to update to a new version [01:45] robin0800: I was wondering that [01:45] last time i tried to install the new KDE version, and that is a simple thing, i fucked everything up [01:45] Ev0luti0n_: it isn't a beta [01:45] couldn't reinstall it [01:45] and had to reinstall kubuntu [01:45] so.... only when 9.10 is out [01:45] :) [01:45] it's just KDE isn't updating correctly [01:46] I had the same problem updating it [01:46] ohh [01:46] thought it was me... [01:46] although i found it strange, cuz i did everything ok [01:46] its because some packages are blocked [01:46] so you don't get the full KDE [01:47] you see that by doing sudo apt-get upgrade like I told you to do it before [01:47] Ev0luti0n just use aptitude and safe-upgrade [01:47] but i added manually the required software sources [01:47] and then forced the upgrade [01:48] idk about that, here I installed every single blocked package manually [01:48] sudo apt-get upgrade [01:48] sudo apt-get install x [01:48] sudo apt-get upgrade [01:48] ... [01:48] until nothing else left [01:49] hmm [01:49] have no fear [01:49] the worst thing that could even happen [01:50] is loosing everything [01:50] lol [01:50] not anymore [01:50] :P [01:50] you can boot your live-CD, run Quassel and come here again [01:50] god no! [01:50] I HATE QUASSEL [01:50] -.-' [01:50] konversation here [01:50] I never tried it before [01:51] Quassel come with KDE [01:51] not mention i miss mIRC so much [01:51] well, I like Quassel [01:51] Ev0luti0n_ I hate Xchat [01:52] wine should be able to deal with mIRC... [01:52] good point [01:52] avihayb_: doesn't work properly [01:52] i used Invision [01:52] :) [01:52] best script ever made [01:52] what version of wine did you try? [01:52] the last one [01:53] from SVN? [01:53] Wine 1.1.29 [01:53] ? [01:53] can't tell [01:53] tried it a few months ago [01:53] 3 or 4 [01:54] +/- [01:54] Ev0luti0n_ I do think though that there is no perfect irc client I liked hydra in windows [01:54] :| [01:54] you're more advanced than I thought! [01:54] hydra? never heard of it! [01:54] W4gn3r: who? me? [01:54] exactly [01:54] lulz [01:55] most users don't know how to add wine repositories to the package manager [01:55] believe me, I was one [01:55] =P [01:56] Im using linux since Jan/09. Tried ubuntu first but i didn't enjoyed gnome, but it was when i tryed kubuntu, after seeing some screenshots that i got in love [01:56] http://www.hydrairc.com/ [01:57] it's based on mIrc [01:57] the thing that get's me the most is the huge amount of shell commands [01:57] and the 1000000000000000000000000000000000001 variants that exist [01:57] X.x [01:58] hydra seems interesting! [01:58] but, what do you think of this: [01:58] it depends on what you do within your system [01:58] my brother uses it normally [01:59] and don't even know when I say "konsole" [01:59] crap! [01:59] can't find no decent invision screenshot [02:00] http://www.dnfclan.com/images/irc/mIRC5.jpg [02:05] can anyone help me I get this error when i want to transfer a file via bluetooth [02:05] Couldn't execute command: nautilus --no-default-window "obex://[00:1F:00:BA:0E:8F]" [02:33] hi, I'm trying to edit a video with kdenlive, I'm basically extracting two short pieces from a long video and join them together. but the rendered result is always bad, the sound crackles and the resolution sucks. [02:34] I suspect that it's because of the encoding format of the original video, which is vp6f [02:35] ffmpeg can only decode flv videos encoded in vp6f, but it can't encode in that format... [02:35] Even if I use mp4 encoding, the rendered video is still a piece of crap. [02:36] can't help you.. [02:36] I sometimes use VLC to convert .flv files, but results varry from good to useless [02:41] i have an hfs+ drive that automounts read-only. I understand that this may be because of journaling.

[08:12] I'm not seeing this tool anymore, only synaptic [08:15] liz_: I think it's in a separate package [08:16] liz_: you need to install the popularity-contest package first [08:17] I already have popcon installed [08:17] does that mean the software to search by popularity is already installed as well? [08:28] does anyone have a quickcam pro 9000? [08:29] I might have accidentally removed it from my kde menu or something, can someone check under system and see which package managers are there? [08:33] liz_: depends on your KDE version and distribution, there is Adept, KPackageKit [08:34] adept sounds right [08:34] I guess it's not installed by default in 9.10 [08:34] or I uninstalled it somehow [08:34] oh, you are on 9.10? Then you should ask in #ubuntu+1, all question regarding Karmic need to go there [08:35] 9.10 uses KPackageKit AFAIK [08:35] hmm, maybe adept is wrong anyway [08:36] I looked at screen shots and it didn't look right [08:36] morning Mamarok [08:36] there is no Adept im 9.10 anymore, please ask in #ubuntu+1 [08:36] hi eagles0513875 [08:36] liz_: also, the package manager is integrated in the system settings, look there [08:38] yeah I checked there, nothing about popularity [08:38] liz_: then please ask in #ubuntu+1, this channel here is not for alpha releases [08:39] well I'm really just curious as to the name of the package manager I used in the stable version [08:39] IIRC this popcon was a Gnome package anyway, so I guess it only works with Synaptic [08:39] I hoped someone could check their menu and let me know the name [08:39] liz_: define "stable" version? [08:39] jaunty [08:39] well, KPackageKit, it's integrated in System Settings [08:40] the option there is called /Add/Remove Software [08:40] anyone have a quickcam pro 9000 [08:40] sigh, but there was another one I used K->applications->system just called "add remove software" or something, different from the integrated one [08:40] oh well [08:40] liz_: that *is* KPackageKit... [08:41] told you so already [08:43] you told me it was THE integrated one [08:43] I said it was different than the integrated one [08:45] who had builed OS by self [08:47] lyh: I doubt you will find many people here, Kubuntu comes with packages, so nothing to build [08:47] eg. linux from scratch [08:48] lyh: this is the Kubuntu support channel, maybe ask elsewhere? [08:48] thanks [08:48] you are welcome [08:49] can you tell me where can i find [08:50] lyh: not really, try asking Google for 'Linux from Scratch' [09:02] the popularity sort feature has been removed says the +1 channel [09:02] it was another package manager than confused people because it didn't have full listings [09:03] they couldn't remember the name either, but sounds like it's no longer developed [09:08] did someone tryed out nitrogen window style?
