konbon | I have a bit of a dilema, maybe you guys can help me with it | 00:18 |
konbon | I am trying to update my driver for Nvidia on this kubuntu 9.04 install | 00:19 |
konbon | i went to the nvidia web site to download the driver and got a .run file for the linux 32 distro | 00:19 |
konbon | i ran it but it tell me that i need to run it in Root. How do i run it in root ? | 00:20 |
sobi | sudo sh *.run | 00:20 |
konbon | Thanks :) | 00:21 |
sobi | :) | 00:21 |
konbon | Looks like i theres another problem. | 00:22 |
konbon | ERROR: You appear to be running an X server; please exit X before installing. | 00:22 |
konbon | how can i stop X Server ? | 00:22 |
sobi | try sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop | 00:23 |
konbon | Thanks :) | 00:23 |
konbon | command not found :( | 00:23 |
sobi | sorry: sudo /etc/init.d/kdm stop | 00:24 |
ncfi1013_ | what would the application name be for a port on a router for kopete be: telnet, http, https, ftp, dns, smtp, pop3, h.323, remote desktop, pptp, l2tp, or wake-on-lan? | 00:24 |
konbon | Oh :P | 00:24 |
sobi | gdm is for Ubuntu, kdm for Kubuntu | 00:24 |
sourcemaker | what is better... egroupware or opengroupware | 00:36 |

alokito | my nokia 5200 is turning off everytime I try to connect it to the internet with kubuntu karmic alpha6's network manager | 03:28 |
alokito | why is it happenning? | 03:28 |
alokito | kppp is working fine, but I want to use the default kubuntu network manager | 03:29 |
jsubl2 | when you install alphas you have to be prepared to chase down a bug | 03:29 |
alokito | jsubl2: hmm ok but Im not having any other problem, just this | 03:30 |
jsubl2 | i dont have any experience with that kinda config... so i have no idea | 03:31 |
alokito | kde has improved a lot, many new features in plasmoid and other apps :) | 03:31 |
alokito | jsubl2: im using a 2g edge connection | 03:31 |
jsubl2 | yeah it is lookin better.. not convinced it is the 1 yet. still playin and testin | 03:31 |
jsubl2 | dissapointed with kopete and no webcam. | 03:32 |
jsubl2 | so is that edge workin for ya | 03:32 |
jsubl2 | what kinda thruput | 03:32 |
alokito | jsubl2: is there a difference between direct kubuntu installation and kubuntu-desktop package installation from gnome? | 03:32 |
jsubl2 | i like to see the grandkids with the webcam. | 03:32 |
alokito | jsubl2: yah I can connect it with kppp | 03:33 |
jsubl2 | not sure but i would think they would be close | 03:33 |
alokito | jsubl2: I installed kubuntu-desktop in jaunty but it looks different from kubuntu karmic | 03:33 |
jsubl2 | i am kinda new to kubuntu.. yahoo cutoff the old protocols for kopete so we had to move to a newer distro.... was on debian stable | 03:34 |
alokito | donno if it has changed in karmic or kubuntu-desktop pack is different from original kubuntu | 03:34 |
jsubl2 | yeah the first thing i change is the looks anyway | 03:34 |
jsubl2 | if the apps are there and work. that is what i would be concerned with | 03:34 |
jsubl2 | aptitude search kubuntu see if you see anything else you might need | 03:35 |
alokito | i used gnome before but now im settled in kde, since kde4.0 release | 03:35 |
P_Kable | Hi there, I'm having an annoying hang at every shutdown. It says: setting advanced power management level to 0x80 | 03:35 |
P_Kable | on 904 | 03:35 |
alokito | P_Kable: turn off advanced power management from /boot/grub/menu.lst | 03:36 |
jsubl2 | i see problems shutdown also.. i logout and then shutdown from kdm and it seems to work better | 03:36 |
P_Kable | alokito: thanks I try that right now ;) | 03:36 |
alokito | add this beside ur boot entry: acpi=off | 03:36 |
jsubl2 | alokito: what if you are a laptop | 03:36 |
jsubl2 | added it right after splash | 03:37 |
alokito | jsubl2: I used it in my old laptop, it runs on dc power though | 03:37 |
jsubl2 | ok so maybe it is safe | 03:37 |
jsubl2 | kubuntu-desktop kubuntu-kde4-desktop | 03:38 |
alokito | jsubl2: kubuntu-desktop now installs kde4 by default | 03:39 |
jsubl2 | awwwwwwww | 03:39 |
alokito | firefox should be default in kde | 03:40 |
alokito | konqueror is not so good for regular browsing | 03:40 |

ncfi1013_ | i cant connect to my contacts in kopete. it keeps saying that they are offline and that wait till they are online or use software that supports offline protocol. | 04:23 |

ncfi1013_ | is harolddong peterbuldge? | 04:26 |
ncfi1013_ | if it is what application name do i give kopete in port forwarding rules on the router? and i cant connect to my contacts in kopete. it keeps saying that they are offline and that wait till they are online or use software that supports offline protocol. | 04:27 |
harolddong | yes | 04:29 |
ncfi1013_ | nice can u help me? | 04:30 |
harolddong | I didnt see your question | 04:30 |
ncfi1013_ | the people over in xchat arent helping me at all | 04:30 |
ncfi1013_ | what application name do i give kopete in port forwarding rules on the router? and i cant connect to my contacts in kopete. it keeps saying that they are offline and that wait till they are online or use software that supports offline protocol. | 04:30 |
harolddong | name it kopete | 04:31 |
harolddong | duh | 04:31 |
ncfi1013_ | i did that but its asking for the application name like gaming names | 04:32 |
ncfi1013_ | theres nothing even resembling an im name in the list | 04:32 |
ncfi1013_ | oh and are the tcp and udp ports the same port number? | 04:33 |
harolddong | see if you can get pidgin installed and talk to me there | 04:34 |
harolddong | and no they arent | 04:34 |
harolddong | I dont think "port forwarding"is really what you want to do. you just want to open ports | 04:35 |
harolddong | so youare probably in the wrong place in your router control panel. that is the first problem. I remember we went through this same thing before | 04:35 |
harolddong | secondly, kopete itself doesnt really any ports that need to be opened. its the protocols themselves, like aim and yahoo. I told you this is a txt message the other night | 04:36 |
ncfi1013_ | pretend im a newb and have some compassion ha ha | 04:36 |
harolddong | that's what I'm doing | 04:37 |
harolddong | but you're still not getting it | 04:37 |
ncfi1013_ | yeah i remember so why doesnt it work perfectly like it has before? does have anything to do with needing to upgrade kde? | 04:37 |
harolddong | can you get pidginn installed? | 04:38 |
ncfi1013_ | what am i not getting? what am i not doing right or wrong or overlooking? | 04:38 |
harolddong | well I explain this stuff to you and the next day you're asking me the same questions or in the exact predicament. its like groundhog day | 04:39 |

skierpage | I installed Quicken 2008 using Wine in Kubuntu 9.04, and I have an item in KIckoff for it. How do I find the command line corresponding to that Kickoff entry? Is it in a .desktop file somewhere or a .kickoff menu structure? | 06:00 |
skierpage | It's not in ~/.kde/share/config/kickoffrc ... | 06:01 |
skierpage | C'mon, Windows Start menu has RIGHT-click > Properties > General tab that shows you the exec line. | 06:03 |
skierpage | skierpage, You can't usefully right-click on an item in Kickoff, but right-click its 'K' icon, choose Menu Editor, then navigate mindlessly around until you find the item in a category, then choose it and see the Command line for it, in this case ' env WINEPREFIX="/home/skierpage/.wine" wine "C:\Program Files\Quicken\qw.exe" ' | 06:06 |

James147 | Assurbanipal: you can try opensync | 09:36 |
Assurbanipal | is it actually working now??because all my efforts in the past were waste of time :( | 09:37 |
James147 | Assurbanipal: not sure, but improvments are made all the time, I havent tryed it in ages so I can say... | 09:37 |
James147 | Assurbanipal: The other thing I was looking into was to sync my PDA to google, then sync google to my computer(s) but havent really looked into it yet | 09:38 |

gentobuntu | Why can't I see any shared folders from other computers? I installed samba and configured /etc/samba/smb.conf to share folders and restarted samba service... | 10:46 |
gentobuntu | I can see other machines from this kubuntu 9.04, but other machines cant see shares from this machine. Is there a FIREWALL blocking sharing or what? | 10:48 |
gentobuntu | Why does /etc/samba/smb.conf make any difference, not even a warning when I put something wrong to it? | 10:49 |
James147 | gentobuntu: I would make sure samba is useing the same workgroup | 10:49 |
Idhan | is there any way that the plasma widgets appears only when I push control-f12?? and always in the background of my desktop?? | 10:51 |
jussi01 | is there a way to give openoffice a different theme than everything else? | 10:51 |
James147 | Idhan: in kde 4.3 you can have seperate dashboard widgets, so when you push crtl + F12 different widgets will appear, you can configure by zooming out of the desktops (from the cashew) the click configure plasma -> check use seperate dashboard | 10:53 |
James147 | Idhan: from what you said you can have no widgets on the desktop, and place widgets on the dashboard so that they appear when you press ctrl+f12 | 10:54 |
gentobuntu | James147: It is the same workgroup, here is the conf, it works on Gentoo server like that, http://pastebin.com/d196ac9a2 | 10:54 |
James147 | gentobuntu: see if you can access it from the computer thats hosting it | 10:55 |
gentobuntu | James147: No. smbtree -does not show any shares, its like /etc/init.d/samba -service does not even read the smb.conf ?? | 10:57 |
James147 | gentobuntu: As far as I can tell there isent anything wrong with the config | 10:58 |
gentobuntu | James147: smbtree does show shares from other machines.. | 10:58 |
gentobuntu | James147: No hyvä kun tuo graafinen juttu ei käynnisty... | 10:59 |
James147 | ?? | 10:59 |
Idhan | James147: where is this "configure plasma"?? | 11:00 |
gentobuntu | James147: The graphical "sahre this folder" does not start at all.. | 11:00 |
James147 | gentobuntu: is samba installed? | 11:00 |
Idhan | James147: if I add widgets in the dashboard after I press ctr-f12, and I add there some widgets, after I come back to the desktop the same widgets are there | 11:01 |
James147 | Idhan: click the cashew thing thats in the corner of the desktop, you should be able to "zoom out" | 11:01 |
gentobuntu | James147: Yes, and I'v /etc/init.d/samba start and allso restart... | 11:01 |
Idhan | James147: ok | 11:01 |
gentobuntu | * Starting Samba daemons [ OK ] | 11:02 |
James147 | gentobuntu: not sure whats wrong :s you could try purging samba and reinstalling it | 11:03 |
Idhan | James147: yes.. I see the zoom out... I try to move some widgets out of the desktop background in the bottom area..but after I stop the drag action, automatically the return to the desktop area | 11:03 |
James147 | Idhan: once you have zoomed out there should be a "configure plasma" option, click that and check "use seperate daskpoard" | 11:04 |
James147 | Idhan: this is in kde 4.3.1, not sure it is in kde 4.2.X, what version are you useing? | 11:05 |
Idhan | 4.2.2 | 11:05 |
Idhan | James147: are you using kubuntu 9.04? | 11:05 |
James147 | Idhan: yes, but with kde 4.3.1 | 11:06 |
Idhan | James147: is that a safe upgrade?? | 11:06 |
James147 | Idhan: I think it was added to kde 4.3, if you really want it you can upgrade via http://www.kubuntu.org/news/kde-4.3.1 | 11:06 |

cajun | well he's the only user on my system that has to reset. i created a guest account with limited user priveleges and it's pw remains the same. | 14:02 |
James147 | cajun: looks to be user spific | 14:02 |
cajun | i used the "Users and Groups" manager to create and make changes for both additional users. | 14:02 |

James147 | cajun: the default is no timeout, maby his got set somehow? | 14:03 |
James147 | i jsut ran kuser and it asked for password :) needs to be root either way | 14:03 |
cajun | fo some reason, kuser showed that he is disabled. which is odd | 14:05 |
James147 | cajun: maby his password expired? | 14:05 |
harolddong | how do I get the kmplayer konqueror plugin to work in jaunty it doesnt play anything | 14:05 |
cajun | he just changed it again last night | 14:06 |
James147 | cajun: either way you can try to enable him and take off the expireing password to see if it works | 14:06 |
cajun | kuser is set so that passwords never expire. | 14:06 |
cajun | i don't see a way to change this setting for a specific user | 14:06 |
James147 | cajun: for me i click on the user, a box pops up with more info, password expriey is on Password Managment tab | 14:07 |
cajun | ah. that fixed it. | 14:08 |
cajun | he had expire deadlines. | 14:09 |
cajun | i have no idea how that happened. | 14:09 |
James147 | cajun: but now you know how to fix it :) | 14:09 |
cajun | thank you so much. why is this not available in the gnome version of that app? | 14:09 |
James147 | cajun: It might be, I dont use gnome so I dont know what is availble for it | 14:10 |
cajun | yes. thank you. i just fixed the geust account. It was set to expire in 99999999 days | 14:10 |
James147 | cajun: thats prity much never :) | 14:10 |
cajun | yeah I know. but I fixed them all to never. | 14:12 |
cajun | thank you so much for your help. i like the KDE4 but it doesn't seem as easy to use as the previous version. i can understand how to do everything that I see when I see screenshots of what others have done w/ it. | 14:12 |
cajun | someone needs to create a really good tutorial on how to use KDE4. | 14:12 |
James147 | cajun: I dont find it that hard to use :S and I know others find it easier to use the gnome | 14:13 |
James147 | cajun: and a howto for kde4 would be quite along howto :) there is so much you can do | 14:14 |
cajun | they both have their plusses for me. thanks so much for your help. have a good one. | 14:14 |

W4gn3r | did anyone ever try KOffice? | 18:11 |
xorred | how do I proceed if I lost my /boot folder? | 18:12 |
xorred | I lost my /boot folder and now typing out of a live cd | 18:12 |
rj_ | I tried to Install kOffice | 18:12 |
rj_ | however, kubuntu won't let me :( | 18:12 |
W4gn3r | lol | 18:12 |
W4gn3r | I'm really curious, but I can't install it cuz I'm creating a live CD version | 18:13 |
rj_ | I have a problem: | 18:13 |
W4gn3r | =/ | 18:13 |
rj_ | My laptop battery is dead | 18:13 |
rj_ | and it sets the time at 1969 | 18:13 |
rj_ | everytime I turn it on | 18:13 |
rj_ | and when I try to boot kubuntu | 18:14 |
xorred | how do I proceed if I lost my /boot folder? | 18:14 |
rj_ | it crashes | 18:14 |
W4gn3r | xorred: afaik, you can copy the live CD boot folder to your HD | 18:14 |
xorred | relly? | 18:14 |
xorred | and how do I reinstall grub then? | 18:14 |
xorred | as I have windows too... | 18:14 |
W4gn3r | rj_: did you try to boot on text mode? | 18:14 |
xorred | don't wanna lose the windows boot loader | 18:14 |
Mufasa | rj_: replace battery | 18:15 |
W4gn3r | xorred: you can install grub normally, but you'll need to manually edit your menu.lst | 18:15 |
rj_ | yes, I did, my only question is "what do I need to so that Linux doesn't check the date?" | 18:15 |
rj_ | I can replace the battery | 18:15 |
xorred | hmmm... but the live cd detects any OSs that are there | 18:15 |
xorred | I guess there is a way to follow the same procedure? | 18:15 |
rj_ | can't | 18:15 |
xorred | somehow it automatically detects there is another OS | 18:15 |
xorred | no need to manually do anything? | 18:15 |
W4gn3r | xorred: it does detect, but during installation | 18:16 |
W4gn3r | during the system installation | 18:16 |
rj_ | it crashes 'cause of the time set at 1969 | 18:16 |
W4gn3r | xorred: but it's simple, just 4 small lines, and you can add you Windows partition to the grub list | 18:16 |
rj_ | so....? | 18:17 |
W4gn3r | rj_: buy a battery =/ | 18:17 |
W4gn3r | it's cheaper and faster | 18:17 |
rj_ | Can't | 18:17 |
rj_ | I'm not in the US | 18:17 |
rj_ | I'm in latin america | 18:17 |
rj_ | so.... | 18:17 |
rj_ | No one ships here | 18:17 |
rj_ | besides that, it's an ibook.... | 18:18 |
W4gn3r | any PC battery is the same | 18:18 |
W4gn3r | u can buy one anywhere | 18:18 |
Mufasa | rj_: try to set date very early durring boot to later date | 18:18 |
rj_ | no, there's no battery inside of apple laptops, well at least on ibooks G3 | 18:18 |
rj_ | I did that, and Linux was acting stupid.... | 18:19 |
W4gn3r | xorred: you must copy the boot folder, generate the boot and init files, and install grub | 18:19 |
rj_ | wait, during boot ? | 18:19 |

dracnoc | luca, fu-si laptops are funny things, some really weird hardware in there. You may not have much luck with the greyscreen resume/suspend problem. It has been a weakness of (K)ubuntu in the past. Unless someone has found a solution by accident, you may be stuck. | 22:54 |
dracnoc | epimeth: give me a moment, I have it running here. I'll have a play with the options. What's your mouse device (touchpad, mouse (PS2/USB))? | 22:56 |
dracnoc | epimeth: my mouse seems to work here. | 22:59 |
dracnoc | epimeth: not sure why yours is not recognised | 22:59 |
dracnoc | (as a key combo) | 23:00 |
epimeth | dracnoc: touchpad... where did you change your settings? | 23:00 |
dracnoc | epimeth: I have the compizconfig-settings-manager (ccsm) installed. The key combo should work through that. | 23:02 |
luca | dracnoc: after a reboot I can switch between battery and ac without any problem. After suspension I can't switch to ac anymore, unless i connect power cable while on suspension and then wake up. could you tell me wich log file to look into? | 23:03 |
luca | my laptop is one step to work perfectly | 23:03 |
luca | please help me | 23:03 |
dracnoc | luca, give me a few minutes. I'll try to find out what i can | 23:03 |

dracnoc | might?! may* damn, my english is all over the place tonight... | 23:23 |
dracnoc | wb luca | 23:23 |
luca | it seems that my issue is vanishing after log-out | 23:25 |
luca | and i don't have any issue with gnome or fluxbox | 23:26 |
luca | can i force logout before any suspension? | 23:26 |
dracnoc | ok... so it's not a hardware issue. | 23:27 |
dracnoc | luca: logout before suspension? Doesn't one contradict the other? You cannot "suspend" an account if you have logged out of it... | 23:29 |
luca | why? I'm talking about suspension to ram. If i suspend at the login screen that would save a lot of time in comparison to a full reboot | 23:32 |
dracnoc | ah, i see... excuse me. | 23:32 |
dracnoc | hold on. | 23:32 |
luca | for sure, it would be more usefull to suspend the logged session | 23:33 |
luca | ah, i'm running nvidia drivers! | 23:33 |
dracnoc | It seems to be a problem with even modern Fu-Si hardware (no real surprises there!) | 23:35 |
dracnoc | I can easily link to 500+ pages with Fu-Si laptops with suspend to RAM problems. You may have a insolvable problem!! | 23:36 |
dracnoc | I go back to my original point that Fu-Si laptops are a pain to work with, the H/W is a little odd at best, at the Sus. to RAM is a "fortunate" and somewhat minimal problem from what I can see. | 23:40 |
luca | tank you ! I will try disabling nvidia proprietary drivers, If all goes well with the open driver i may send an e-mail to nvidia! | 23:40 |
dracnoc | luca: good luck! | 23:42 |
luca | thanks! | 23:42 |
luca | bye | 23:44 |
