[00:02] <ncfi1013_> do i go to my router to change the port or to kopete to change the port cuz i cant find where to change the port in kopete?
[00:06] <vadmin> hello
[00:18] <konbon> Howdy :)
[00:18] <konbon> I have a bit of a dilema, maybe you guys can help me with it
[00:19] <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
[00:20] <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
[00:21] <konbon> Thanks :)
[00:21] <sobi> :)
[00:22] <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 ?
[00:23] <sobi> try  sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[00:23] <konbon> Thanks :)
[00:23] <konbon> command not found :(
[00:24] <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
[00:36] <sourcemaker> what is better... egroupware or opengroupware
[00:39]  * nit is away: Gone away for now
[01:12] <ncfi1013_> port forwarding tcp and udp ports are both port 80 correct?
[01:15] <tyrone> hi quick question: Does ubuntu run as well on a Mac as on a PC or is it design to work better with PC hardware?
[01:26] <ubuntu> hello?

[03:04] <fargo189> Can anyone point me in the right direction for reinstalling my soundcard? I edited alsa-base.conf and now it doesn't recognize my card. running a grep | Codec gives me "No sound card detected". I have the latest version of alsa, just missing the card. Any help?
[03:05] <fargo189> I'm using an Asus if that helps
[03:27] <ncfi1013_> where do i find the default gateway in linux?
[03:28] <jsubl2> if you are on dhcp no need to worry.  if not dhcp man interfaces
[03:28] <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?
[03:29] <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
[03:30] <alokito> jsubl2: hmm ok but Im not having any other problem, just this
[03:31] <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
[03:32] <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.
[03:33] <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
[03:34] <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
[03:35] <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
[03:36] <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
[03:37] <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
[03:38] <jsubl2> kubuntu-desktop kubuntu-kde4-desktop
[03:39] <alokito> jsubl2: kubuntu-desktop now installs kde4 by default
[03:39] <jsubl2> awwwwwwww
[03:40] <alokito> firefox should be default in kde
[03:40] <alokito> konqueror is not so good for regular browsing
[03:41] <jsubl2> yeah agreed there

[04:23] <cjae> !ktts
[04:23] <ncfi1013_> what application name do i give kopete in port forwarding rules on the router?
[04:23] <cjae> !info  ktts
[04:23] <cjae> !info ktts
[04:23] <cjae> umm
[04:23] <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.
[04:24] <cjae> does ktts work with kde 4
[04:26] <ncfi1013_> is harolddong peterbuldge?
[04:27] <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.
[04:29] <harolddong> yes
[04:30] <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.
[04:31] <harolddong> name it kopete
[04:31] <harolddong> duh
[04:32] <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
[04:33] <ncfi1013_> oh and are the tcp and udp ports the same port number?
[04:34] <harolddong> see if you can get pidgin installed and talk to me there
[04:34] <harolddong> and no they arent
[04:35] <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
[04:36] <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
[04:37] <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?
[04:38] <harolddong> can you get pidginn installed?
[04:38] <ncfi1013_> what am i not getting? what am i not doing right or wrong or overlooking?
[04:39] <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
[05:31] <Commissar_Mo> Hello, having massive issues with resolution on boot - it resets my res every time I logout...

[06:00] <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?
[06:01] <skierpage> It's not in ~/.kde/share/config/kickoffrc  ...
[06:03] <skierpage> C'mon, Windows Start menu has RIGHT-click > Properties > General tab that shows you the exec line.
[06:06] <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] <skierpage> skierpage, thanks!  U R awesome.

[09:34] <Assurbanipal> hi everyone,is there a way to syncronize my windows mobile device contacts with kubuntu?? (kontact or thunderbird)
[09:36] <James147> Assurbanipal: you can try opensync
[09:37] <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...
[09:38] <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] <Assurbanipal> i just need my contacts to synchronize....it's a pain in the ass...
[09:39] <James147> Assurbanipal: yeah, I know how you feel :)
[09:42] <Assurbanipal> i have switched to ubuntu for about a year on both my laptop and pc and this is one of the biggest annoyances i find... i can't say i miss windows just for that, but is a big problam for me because i exchange personal details with many people all the time and need to have them synced...
[09:42] <Assurbanipal> it has to be worked out...
[09:45] <James147> Assurbanipal: I would try syncing with google, you might have more luck
[09:52] <Assurbanipal> James147: unfortunatelly i have gone through that way for the moment, but is is a work around and not a real solution....does anyone know how syncing works between ubuntu and android?
[10:29] <val_> AHHHH
[10:29] <val_> hi !
[10:46] <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...
[10:48] <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?
[10:49] <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
[10:51] <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?
[10:53] <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
[10:54] <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
[10:55] <James147> gentobuntu: see if you can access it from the computer thats hosting it
[10:57] <gentobuntu> James147: No. smbtree -does not show any shares, its like /etc/init.d/samba -service does not even read the smb.conf ??
[10:58] <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..
[10:59] <gentobuntu> James147: No hyvä kun tuo graafinen juttu ei käynnisty...
[10:59] <James147> ??
[11:00] <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?
[11:01] <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
[11:02] <gentobuntu>  * Starting Samba daemons                                                                                                      [ OK ]
[11:03] <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
[11:04] <James147> Idhan: once you have zoomed out there should be a "configure plasma" option, click that and check "use seperate daskpoard"
[11:05] <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?
[11:06] <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
[11:07] <Idhan> James147: thanks
[11:07] <James147> Idhan: You welcome :)

[12:25] <gentobuntu> In what conf file is the delay between login and password defined? It is annoying when there is 5sec delay!! Both VNC and SSH has the delay..
[12:27] <James147> gentobuntu: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=943672 <- might help
[12:27] <James147> gentobuntu: btw, did you get samba working in the end?
[13:01] <user_> hi, how i can see what users i have in my os from konsole
[13:04] <James147> user_: cat /etc/group will show all users including system ones as well as teh groups they belong to
[13:05] <user_> ok thx
[13:21] <gentobuntu> James147: Yep, I reinstalled samba and then it started to log errors to /var/log/s... and there was few in my smb.conf, now working 100%

[13:24] <boscop> I'm running ubuntu with xfce and I want to have mouse gestures in konqueror, but I don't have kde control center. is there a way to enable them without installing it?
[13:24] <boscop> I just need back and forward
[13:31] <boscop> and a second thing: when I press middle mouse button on a tab, I get a msg: protocol not supported, but the tab doesn't close. I have enabled tab closing with middle mouse button in the settings though
[13:56] <cajun> I don't know whether it matters, ubuntu or kubuntu. I have Kubuntu Jaunty installed but use gnome more often. One of my users has to change his password regularly yet I have not had to myself.  Is this because he has administrative privileges?
[14:00] <James147> cajun: I know you can set a time at which passwords expire, not sure if its system wide or user wide though
[14:02] <James147> cajun: in kuser if you double click on a user to get settings for that user there is a "password managment" tab that lets you set password expiry times
[14:02] <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.
[14:03] <cajun> kdesudo kuser?
[14:03] <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
[14:05] <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
[14:06] <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
[14:07] <James147> cajun: for me i click on the user, a box pops up with more info, password expriey is on Password Managment tab
[14:08] <cajun> ah.  that fixed it.
[14:09] <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?
[14:10] <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 :)
[14:12] <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.
[14:13] <James147> cajun: I dont find it that hard to use :S and I know others find it easier to use the gnome
[14:14] <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.

[17:28] <boscop> konqueror often crashes when using the incremental search
[17:29] <rosco_y> is there a command I can run to check what type of cpu my ISP is using?
[17:30] <rosco_y> (from within a telnet prompt)
[17:31] <pkt> rosco_y: cat /proc/cpuinfo?
[17:31] <rosco_y> pkt, Thank you!
[17:31] <pkt> rosco_y: np
[17:33] <rosco_y> pkt: do you know how to tell if it is a 32 or 64 bit cpu?
[17:33] <rosco_y> I want to use some dot net software on my isp, but there is a 32 bit and a 64 bit version, and I don't know which to use
[17:35] <xorred> hey guys how can I extract only 1 folder from my tar.gz backup ?
[17:35] <rosco_y> xorred: did you try dragging and dropping?
[17:36] <xorred> and via command line?
[17:36] <rosco_y> xorred: sorry, I don't know the command line
[17:36] <rosco_y> I'll bet there is a way, there are a lot of options
[17:38] <llutz> xorred: tar xf tarfile.tar dir
[17:38] <llutz> xorred: tar xzf tarfile.tar.gz dir
[17:44] <handjob> rosco_y: lshw | less - then find "cpu" section.
[17:49] <xorred> llutz: how do I extract to /media/disk for example?
[17:49] <xorred> to a specific destination
[17:49] <llutz> xorred: man tar  (-C)
[17:51] <xorred> yea it's 30 pages long vs. just one command
[17:51] <xorred> I know "man", that's why I'm here
[17:54] <handjob> I wander why "sudo apt-get update/upgrade" does not include kernel upgrade?
[17:55] <llutz> handjob: use dist-upgrade
[17:55] <Pici> handjob: Because the kernel packages are pulled in via a package dependency. You'd need to use apt-get dist-upgrade to get that.
[17:55] <handjob> Thank you gentleman.
[18:11] <W4gn3r> did anyone ever try KOffice?
[18:12] <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
[18:13] <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
[18:14] <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
[18:15] <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?
[18:16] <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
[18:17] <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
[18:18] <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
[18:19] <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] <rj_> how do you do that?
[18:20] <rj_> ???
[18:20] <xorred> how do I do that
[18:20] <W4gn3r> xorred: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows
[18:21] <handjob> Gentleman i want to install nvidia drivers using tty1 however installer is whining about running X session. The problem is when i kill "X" i am automaticly dropped to login ( gdm? ) so i guess i must stop it first however i don't see it in init.d?
[18:21] <Mufasa> rj_: create file /etc/rcS.d/S01changedate.sh then insert command there that will change date to something closer to 2009
[18:22] <Mufasa> rj_: it should work unless it craches sooner than system v
[18:22] <W4gn3r> handjob: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop ?
[18:22] <rj_> @Mufasa what is the command?
[18:22] <llutz> handjob: ctrl-alt-f1, login, sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop, install nvidia then
[18:22] <xorred> that link only explains if you have boot folder untouched
[18:22] <xorred> mine is gone
[18:22] <Mufasa> rj_: i knew you'd ask… wait i havent done it in ages…
[18:23] <alexis_> hi! how to enable video's thumbnails?
[18:23] <alexis_> in kde 4.3.x
[18:23] <handjob> The problem is as i pointed before that i don't have "gdm" in my "init.d". Mostly strange.
[18:23] <alexis_> (in konqueror or desktop)
[18:23] <llutz> handjob: xdm/kdm?
[18:23] <handjob> llutz: Of course. "Kdm" - thank you kind sir.
[18:24] <Mufasa> rj_: something like that: date -s 2009.04.08-22:46+0100
[18:25] <rj_> @Mufasa you sure?
[18:25] <Mufasa> rj_: no… :)
[18:25] <Mufasa> rj_: check that in console first
[18:25] <rj_> so... I'm a total newbie.... so how?
[18:26] <Mufasa> rj_: try alt+f2 and type xterm
[18:26] <Mufasa> rj_: then inside that window
[18:27] <rj_> nothing happened....
[18:29] <rj_> hey, for the command, is this correct: "date set="2 OCT 2006 18:00:00""
[18:30] <rj_> ???
[18:31] <Mufasa> rj_: there it is: date -s "wed jul 30 19:41:00 BST 2008"
[18:31] <Mufasa> that works
[18:32] <rj_> @mufasa ok, so I'm about to restart my laptop....
[18:33] <rj_> @mufasa If I don't comeback, tell my wife and daughter that I love them....

[22:41] <luca> kubuntu is stuck in a grey screen with balls when switching from battery to ac. This only happen if I made a suspension since last reboot.
[22:41] <ikonia> dracnoc: easy on the /me commands please
[22:41] <dracnoc> I'm guessing laptop... make and model?
[22:41] <luca> fujitsu-siemens amilo m3438g
[22:43] <dracnoc> i know fu-si laptops are a little weird when it comes to suspend/resume, any error messages?
[22:43] <epimeth> aloha peeps! :-)
[22:43] <dracnoc> hiya epimeth
[22:44] <luca> I don't know which log file to search
[22:44] <dracnoc> ikonia: two whole /me comms, not exactly a flood...
[22:44] <dracnoc> at least peeps are talking
[22:44] <epimeth> so I was wondering... how do I get the desktop cube effect to work like it did in compiz?  IE ctrl+alt+mouseclick + mousemove?
[22:45] <ikonia> dracnoc: hence why I said easy on them please,
[22:45] <dracnoc> ikonia: no probs, i'm just glad the room is moving
[22:45] <epimeth> and what the heck is this?  (just came up) freenode-connect [freenode@freenode/bot/connect] requested CTCP VERSION from epimeth:
[22:46] <ikonia> if it's quiet, no need to make it noisey, just ask a support question and if someone knows the answer they will answer
[22:46] <ikonia> epimeth: a freenode bot, the guys in #freenode can explain it for you
[22:46]  * epimeth pumps up the jams
[22:47] <epimeth> ikonia: I figured... thanks tho
[22:48] <dracnoc> epimeth: did you look install the "desktop-effects-kde" package?
[22:49] <dracnoc> look to install*
[22:49] <dracnoc> damn, that was a terrible typo
[22:50] <epimeth> dracnoc: I don't want compiz as my window manager... I just want to know if the kdm effects allow me to configure it like compiz does by default?  I don't like ctrl+f11 to pop it up and enter to select the desktop I want
[22:52] <dracnoc> kde effects uses compiz, all part of the same thing, but you can configure the key combo
[22:52] <luca> when stuck on grey screen, my system keeps responding to x events (i can blindly write to a shell )
[22:53] <epimeth> dracnoc: it uses compiz, yes, but its integrated into kdm... like I said, I don't want compiz to be my window manager!  When trying to configure the shortcut, mouseclick is not an option....

[22:54] <luca> dmesg output ??
[22:54] <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.
[22:56] <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))?
[22:59] <dracnoc> epimeth: my mouse seems to work here.
[22:59] <dracnoc> epimeth: not sure why yours is not recognised
[23:00] <dracnoc> (as a key combo)
[23:00] <epimeth> dracnoc: touchpad... where did you change your settings?
[23:02] <dracnoc> epimeth: I have the compizconfig-settings-manager (ccsm) installed. The key combo should work through that.
[23:03] <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
[23:04] <luca> thanks!
[23:07] <dracnoc> luca: it seems to be a problem running back to 2005... hold on
[23:08] <dracnoc> luca: you can run with ACPI support off, but you will lose battery indicators
[23:09] <dracnoc> luca: there appears to be no fix
[23:11] <luca> dracnoc: I serched a lot on my issue but without success. can you tell me where you found those infos?
[23:13] <dracnoc> luca, sorry, i compile info from a lot of different sources (some of read at over 2000+ words/minute). It's a general opinion from various forums ubuntuforums.org/linuxquestions.org, etc. I may have missed something (I'm only human afterall!), but those two are a good start.
[23:13] <dracnoc> some of us read*
[23:14] <dracnoc> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=673833 - might help you
[23:15] <luca> thank you very much. I apreciate your help! afterall kubuntu is great for my laptop

[23:23] <dracnoc> might?! may* damn, my english is all over the place tonight...
[23:23] <dracnoc> wb luca
[23:25] <luca> it seems that my issue is vanishing after log-out
[23:26] <luca> and i don't have any issue with gnome or fluxbox
[23:26] <luca> can i force logout before any suspension?
[23:27] <dracnoc> ok... so it's not a hardware issue.
[23:29] <dracnoc> luca: logout before suspension? Doesn't one contradict the other? You cannot "suspend" an account if you have logged out of it...
[23:32] <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.
[23:33] <luca> for sure, it would be more usefull to suspend the logged session
[23:33] <luca> ah, i'm running nvidia drivers!
[23:35] <dracnoc> It seems to be a problem with even modern Fu-Si hardware (no real surprises there!)
[23:36] <dracnoc> I can easily link to 500+ pages with Fu-Si laptops with suspend to RAM problems. You may have a insolvable problem!!
[23:40] <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!
[23:42] <dracnoc> luca: good luck!
[23:42] <luca> thanks!
