[01:09] <apple_cat> Hi, How can I write plain bytes to a file? I was just reading a page which described the 'header chunk' for a midi file but I have no idea how to actually write the bytes in a file.
[01:55] <rejohn> Anyone seeing spurious graphics problems in Ubuntu 904??  I'm seeing spurious graphics problems on both my desktip & laptop using KUbuntu 904 & the later KDE from the (PPA? Launchpad?) repositories. 1) Some leftover window stuff doesn't get erased from the screen occasionally, & 2) some black background with light dots of garbage appear inside some windows (often KATE word processor).  Anyone else see this?  Is this a known issue
[03:35] <dwidmann> Alright, here goes. Is there a relatively simple command for setting an mp3's "disk" id3 tag? (for scripting goodness of course)
[05:20] <ArkoldThos> damn repos, are slow :(
[06:51] <rj_> ?
[06:52] <rj_> anybody here?
[06:52] <jussi01> rj_: yes
[06:52] <jussi01> rj_: just ask your question :)
[06:53] <rj_> ok... I have a Sound Blaster Audio Card
[06:53] <rj_> a 5.1
[06:53] <rj_> and Kubuntu is not detecting it
[06:53] <rj_> where can I find the drivers?
[06:54] <venky80> does anyone have a google wave invite to spare
[06:54] <rj_> I have another question. When booting, there is a message that says "ati 128fb invalid rom contents" what does that means?
[06:54] <rj_> ??
[06:56] <rj_> may next time :(

[07:36] <ArkoldThos> someone got chromium with flash?
[07:42] <jussi01> ArkoldThos: yes. I do.
[07:43] <Darkrift2> anyone know why my gkrellm cannot be alt+dragged around like it used to be?
[07:44] <ArkoldThos> jussi01, you have flash working right?
[07:44] <Darkrift2> i can still alt drag other windows. ive tried all of the gkrellm settings about widget/docking
[07:44] <jussi01> ArkoldThos: yes.
[07:46] <ArkoldThos> you had any problem after copying the plugin in the plugin folder and open chrome with --enable-plugin flag?
[07:47] <jussi01> ArkoldThos: flash is not stable with chromium yet. it occasionally crashed and other small issues.
[08:01] <Balsaq> is kubuntu lighter weight than ubuntu?
[08:01] <Darkrift2> no
[08:02] <Darkrift2> prob the opposite
[08:02] <Darkrift2> because kubuntu is known to "look prettier"
[08:02] <Darkrift2> shinier, more like vista
[08:02] <Darkrift2> i personally feel ubuntu is kinda old looking
[08:02] <Balsaq> oh thought thats waht ubuntu was
[08:02] <Darkrift2> they are both the same
[08:02] <Darkrift2> one runs KDE, one runs GNOME
[08:03] <Darkrift2> only major difference
[08:03] <Balsaq> cause i cant get youtube vid to runs at the same speed as th music plays in ubuntu
[08:06] <Darkrift2> anyone know how to reinstall glx?
[08:36] <a> au
[08:52] <kambal> hi everyone!
[08:53] <kambal> i would like to ask how to install wine in gutsy gibbon
[08:53] <DarkriftX> sudo apt-get install wine
[08:54] <kambal> Couldn't find package wine
[08:54] <DarkriftX> then your repos are messed up
[08:54] <kambal> ?? how do i configure it?
[08:54] <DarkriftX> unless it doesnt exist in there
[08:55] <DarkriftX> not sure, thats beyond what I can help you with :(
[08:55] <kambal> what version of wine is good for games like gamehouse?
[09:05] <sheytan> Hi all
[09:05] <sheytan> how do i completly remove kde4 from my kubuntu?
[09:05] <sheytan> need xfce, couse on my school computer kde4 works not so well
[09:10] <TechN9ne> New to Kubuntu and loving it just installed 10mins ago anything i should do once its installed?
[09:10] <kambal> how do i remove the last line i added to the repository?
[09:12] <TechN9ne> ?
[09:14] <James147> TechN9ne: Install kubuntu-restricted-extras (although running amarok, k3b or anyother media player should show a try icon to install them)
[09:16] <TechN9ne> yep done thanks installed all updates that were needed just very new to KDE wasnt sure if i needed any thing else that was helpful
[09:18] <James147> TechN9ne: wine might be helpful if you ever need to run a windows program (although not everything will work). Dont need to install it now just take note of it and if you do get the version from wine as the jaunty ones are very outdated
[09:19] <TechN9ne> right ive used wine before thanks for your help
[09:21] <James147> TechN9ne: other then that unless there is something spific you need, everything common should be already installed :)
[09:21] <TechN9ne> great! was just double checking Thank You!
[09:39] <TechN9ne> I have songbird but it says internal error and it wont play any songs any ideas?

[11:41] <mariner> how can i patch kde2 under FreeBSD?
[11:53] <Mamarok> mariner: well, ask in FreeBSD I would say, also KDE2 is heavily outdated and more than 10 years old...
[11:55] <mariner> i have very old pc and want to try kde2, couse i have never seen it
[12:13] <hanshenrik> sudo cp -r * /var/www     - will that copy all files/folders/folder cotains in current folder to /var/www?
[12:15] <echosystm> is there a QT firefox yet?
[12:36] <Guest62158> yeah, qt firefox
[12:36] <Guest62158> firefox is the only application I run that has memory leaks
[12:36] <Guest62158> is it because it is gtk?
[12:36] <Guest62158> lol
[13:23] <javier> Hi to everyone! Does someone knows if it is possible to minimize thunderbird 2 and sunbird to tray instead of having them minimize together with all the rest of applications?

[14:37] <kambal> hello!
[14:38] <kaddi> hello :)
[14:38] <kambal> i've just downloaded pidgin and installed in gutsy gibbon, but whenever i open it just loading after that nothing happen
[14:39] <kaddi> where did you download pigdin? I think support for gutsy gibbon has ended earlier this year. Is there a reason why you are not upgrading?
[14:40] <kambal> can anyone help me?
[14:40] <kaddi> where did you download pigdin? I think support for gutsy gibbon has ended earlier this year. Is there a reason why you are not upgrading?
[14:41] <srdjan> can anyone help me how to change menu.lst file
[14:41] <srdjan> i have dual boot sistem
[14:43] <srdjan> and when i start my pc i want to have only two options ubuntu and windows but i have 5 tipes of ubuntu and recovery mode
[14:43] <srdjan> hellooo
[14:44] <Mamarok> !patience | srdjan
[14:47] <kaddi> srdjan: you should be able to edit your bootmenu through system settings: go to system settings->advanced-> grub editor->entries. There you can remove the entries you no longer want to see. Backup your menu first though, would be my advice
[14:53] <Hatl> hi! i updated my kubuntu to 9.10. now i have the following error: http://pastebin.com/m25361f7b any suggestions?
[14:53] <Freyr> hi !
[14:54] <Hatl> hi
[14:54] <Freyr> can anyone tell me project management software ( e.g. ms project) ?
[14:54] <Freyr> * a

[14:58] <srdjan> i made it :D
[14:58] <s0me0ne> hi, where I can get apt-get source code?
[14:58] <kaddi> :)
[14:59] <genii> s0me0ne: If the deb-src lines in your /etc/apt/sources.list are not commented out, just:   apt-get source packagename        will pull down the source code for packagename
[15:01] <s0me0ne> apt-get source apt-get doesn't work :/
[15:02] <s0me0ne> I don't have commented deb-src in sources.list
[15:02] <s0me0ne> any other ideas how to get source code apt-get ?
[15:04] <BluesKaj> look for the src version of the repos
[15:04] <genii> s0me0ne: The package that apt-get originates from is apt
[15:05] <AndySpain> hi
[15:06] <AndySpain> I can't log into kde anymore
[15:06] <AndySpain> I had little space on hdd and was notified about updates (bugfixes only)  earlier today
[15:06] <BluesKaj> s0me0ne, instead of deb http://archive.canonical look for deb-src http://archive.canonical , as an aexample.
[15:06] <AndySpain> I clicked on apply all updates
[15:07] <AndySpain> since then when I startup I get to the login screen enter user name and pw and again the login screen showed up. booted in live cd made some space availbalbe
[15:08] <AndySpain> now when I arrive at login screen and enter name and pw on the uppermost left part of the screen a small console opens the rest of the screen remains like login screen
[15:09] <genii> AndySpain: Can you still gain a console login by ctrl-alt-f1 ?
[15:09] <AndySpain> yes
[15:10] <AndySpain> i tried recovery mode at bootup and there the option repair x, same result
[15:11] <AndySpain> now in this tiny console window I can also write comamnds. 'sudo shutdown now' instead of bringing the computer to halt, it brings me to the recovery mode screen
[15:11] <AndySpain> very bizarre
[15:11] <genii> AndySpain: When updates were trying to be done, it complained of no space on /boot   or similar groaning?
[15:11] <AndySpain> no
[15:11] <AndySpain> it said, reboot required
[15:12] <AndySpain> with the reboot icon in tray
[15:12] <AndySpain> df  however sayd 0 free
[15:13] <AndySpain> at about 20% of update process, but I thought, aborting manually could be too dangerous and I hoped it would find out that there is no space and simply spill out an error, saying it just can't update
[15:16] <AndySpain> sudo apt-get purge kubuntu-desktop and then sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop did not help either
[15:21] <Mamarok> AndySpain: well, kubuntu-desktop is just a meta-package, removing it doesn't remove anything
[15:21] <kambal> hi everyone!
[15:21] <kambal> how do i mount my 2nd ide hardisk?
[15:22] <genii> AndySpain: What does:  df -h            report?
[15:23] <AndySpain> sda3 available 345M used 96%  mounted to /
[15:24] <AndySpain> sda3: available: 345M; used: 96%;  mounted to: /
[15:24] <genii> AndySpain: We can try to free up the 5% usually reserved for superuser, with tune2fs
[15:24] <AndySpain> how that?
[15:24] <kambal> how do i mount my 2nd ide hardisk?
[15:24] <AndySpain> it's a damn small partition, there's almost nothing big left
[15:25] <genii> AndySpain: sudo tune2fs -m 0 /dev/sda3          (in this case)
[15:25] <AndySpain> copied all big stuff to my pendrive
[15:25] <AndySpain> genii: this won't delete anything no?
[15:25] <genii> AndySpain: It won't delete anything, just free up the 5% usually reserved space
[15:26] <genii> (which may be enough to finish it's updates)
[15:26] <AndySpain> ok
[15:26] <AndySpain> done
[15:27] <AndySpain> it says: setting the percentage of reserved blocks to 0% (0 blokcs)
[15:27] <genii> AndySpain: Are you able to ping internet from command-line? eg:   ping  -c 5 google.com             shows it responding?
[15:28] <genii> Work requires me, returning shortly
[15:28] <AndySpain> yes
[15:29] <AndySpain> ping google.com  56 bytes of data
[15:29] <AndySpain> 5 packets transmitted
[15:29] <AndySpain> 0 received
[15:29] <AndySpain> 100% package loss
[15:29] <AndySpain> time 4031ms
[15:30] <AndySpain> genii: elinks google.com shows me google's page
[15:31] <genii> 100% package loss isn't good
[15:31] <AndySpain> sounds bad, but google works
[15:31] <AndySpain> and can search also, so not cached or so
[15:32] <AndySpain> (dunno if elinks caches at all)
[15:32] <AndySpain> what now? - sudo apt-get update and upgrade and dist-upgrade?
[15:32] <genii> AndySpain: The idea would be... if internet is working... to clear out /tmp and /var/cache/apt/archives and then re-run an update/upgrade command
[15:32] <genii> work, brb
[15:32] <AndySpain> ok
[15:34] <AndySpain> genii: sudo rm -R /tmp && sudo rm -R /var/cache/apt  would do?
[15:35] <genii> AndySpain: For a test... does: wget http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/jaunty/Release                      grab a file from the repository?
[15:35] <genii> AndySpain: Hold off on the rm stuff just yet
[15:36] <AndySpain> yes, grabbed
[15:36] <AndySpain> 165K7s in 0.4 s
[15:36] <AndySpain> just my typing took a long time ;-)
[15:37] <genii> AndySpain: Ok. So not the rm commands you put, but instead:   sudo rm -rf /tmp/*  && sudo rm -rf /var/cache/apt/archives/*
[15:37] <genii> AndySpain: This will make room in /tmp and also clear out any corrupted partial downloads in the apt deb archives
[15:38] <genii> AndySpain: Then: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade             (or dist-upgrade if you prefer)
[15:38] <AndySpain> done
[15:38] <AndySpain> the rm
[15:39] <AndySpain> error
[15:39] <AndySpain> the archive directory /var/cache/apt/archives/partial is missing
[15:40] <AndySpain> simply mkdir?
[15:40] <genii> AndySpain: Ah... sudo mkdir /var/cache/apt/archives/partial                    then
[15:42] <AndySpain> E: subprocess returned an erro code
[15:42] <AndySpain> it was already fetching the update
[15:43] <AndySpain> but still 9% of free space on sda3
[15:44] <AndySpain> i try a reboot first
[15:44] <AndySpain> another one I mean
[15:45] <AndySpain> maybe if the system tries to come up from down it will set the temp files it needs to run popperly
[15:45] <AndySpain> objections?
[15:56] <AndySpain> genii: great. at least something changed: the small konsole window does not pop up anymore after trying to login into kde, but login still fails and throws me back to login screen
[15:57] <AndySpain> no more error doing update and upgrade with apt-get
[15:58] <AndySpain> 0 akturalized, 0 newly installed, 0 to be removed and 0 not actualized is the result, however
[15:58] <dhuv> hello all, I am using karmic Alpha 6 and have a question about Xorg, specifically xorg.conf. What happened to it? and how do I get a default to be created?
[15:59] <dhuv> I wanted to customize my graphics card and enable powermangaement and 3D acceleration.
[15:59] <AndySpain> afk
[16:00] <meitnerium> !de
[16:02] <genii> !9.10 | dhuv
[16:03] <dhuv> ubottu: it is working fine right now. I just wanted to know how to get a default xorg.conf so I can customize it
[16:03] <dhuv> I looked int he /etc/X11/ directory but it is not there
[16:06] <genii> dhuv: You might want to install kxgenerator and make one
[16:07] <sczgilae> hello. im doing an script that give to the user a possibility to mount an network directory.   http://pastebin.com/d69c81afe          but a normal user has not permission to mount
[16:08] <oscar>  
[16:08] <genii> !info kxgenerator | dhuv
[16:08] <sczgilae> im going to put the script on the Desktop and when they click i want that they could write a username and password
[16:09] <oscar> I got some troubles with Compiz here, anyone care to help? Probably easyto solve.
[16:09] <genii> AndySpain: When you at some earlier point booted into single-user, did you try to start the X system? I'm thinking perhaps some permissions in /home/yourname got owned by root or so
[16:10] <genii> oscar: Compiz and the built-in compositing of KDE4 don't play nice together
[16:11] <oscar> genii: So I've noticed. Still, I'm trying Kubuntu out for a few weeks and I'd love to have as much eye-candy as possible. Can you download plug-ins for the existing manager?
[16:12] <genii> oscar: Not sure. But the builtin effects include much of what Compiz used to provide..wobbly windows, cube, sphere, wall    and so on
[16:16] <kaddi> !windows > kaddi
[16:35] <dhuv> ubottu: I cannot find the package for that in karmic, I see that it is in Jaunty
[16:35] <dhuv> genii: The package is not available in Karmic, only Jaunty
[16:36] <kaddi> dhuv: for Karmic support please try #ubuntu+1
[16:36] <dhuv> ah I see
[16:41] <sczgilae> hello. im doing an script that give to the user a possibility to mount an network directory.   http://pastebin.com/d69c81afe          but a normal user has not permission to mount
[16:41] <sczgilae> im going to put the script on the Desktop and when they click i want that they could write a username and password
[16:41] <willi_> might someone be able to suggest a good backup utility for my kde desktop?
[16:43] <willi_> sczgilae: take a look at dialog http://hightek.org/dialog/ i think it does what you want
[16:44] <Fanfare> sczgilae: or use kdialog
[16:45] <sczgilae> ok willi_ and Fanfare i didnt know these aplications, im going to see them, thks
[16:52] <chirag> how can i upgrade from kubuntu8.1 to 9.04 using live cd?
[16:54] <sczgilae> willi_ ,  Fanfare   i tried kdialog and looks prety but the problem is that the users dont have permissions to mount a share  directory
[16:56] <Fanfare> sczgilae: did u try mounting with dolphin? is it always the same share? adding it to /etc/fstab?
[16:56] <Fanfare> does /mnt/tmp exist?
[16:57] <sczgilae> Fanfare: /mnt/tmp exists.   i see that if i mount with a normal user with dolphin everything its ok but with the script a normal user no have permissions to mount
[16:58] <genii> -o users

[17:02] <chirag> what happened?
[17:03] <chirag> DOES ANYONE KNOW HOW CAN I UPGRADE TO 9.04 USING LIVE CD?
[17:03] <chirag> how to check if having 32bit or 64bit version?
[17:04] <sczgilae> genii:  if i add -o users occur the same, only root can do this action
[17:04] <Mamarok> chirag: please don't shout
[17:04] <Fanfare> chirag: uname -m
[17:05] <chirag> fanfare: i686
[17:05] <chirag> what does it mean?
[17:06] <chirag> mamarok: ok
[17:06] <Fanfare> chirag: 32bit your running kernel is
[17:07] <chirag> what would it give in case of 64bit?
[17:07] <Fanfare> chirag: x86_64
[17:08] <chirag> fanfare: ok mate. can i upgrade using live cd?
[17:09] <Fanfare> chirag: dont know
[17:09] <genii> chirag: Apologies on lag, work required me
[17:10] <genii> chirag: You should follow the method described here: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading#Upgrading%20Using%20the%20Alternate%20CD/DVD
[17:12] <chirag> appreciate your help genii. that one is by using alternate cd...
[17:12] <chirag> n not live cd...
[17:12] <genii> chirag: Yes. I already told you that it's not possible to upgrade with the livecd, just the alternate
[17:13] <chirag> okie dokie... would come back tomorrow if having any trouble... :)
[17:13] <genii> I'll be here, like every day :)
[17:13] <chirag> thank you very much though. happy working genii...
[17:14] <chirag> can i ask you something?
[17:14] <genii> !ask
[17:15] <chirag> genii: do u work for kubuntu?
[17:15] <chirag> or just a user n lover like me?
[17:16] <genii> chirag: No, I just volunteer here to assist people and don't work for Canonical. I work for a small internet provider, among my other jobs.
[17:17] <chirag> where are you from?
[17:17] <genii> chirag: Toronto, Canada. But we are drifting offtopic now in the support channel :)
[17:17] <chirag> :)
[17:18] <Fanfare> Anyone around using capisuite?
[17:18] <chirag> take care mate... would carry on tonight with 8.10.
[17:18] <chirag> good bye
[17:19] <genii> Fanfare: I've heard of it but not used it... PRI/ISDN utilities or such, yes?
[17:20] <Fanfare> yes, fax/voicebox
[17:20] <genii> Fanfare: If so, someone in #ubuntu-server may be knowledgeable on it
[17:20] <Fanfare> genii: good hint, but actually im thinking bout capisuite/kontact integration ...
[17:21] <genii> Fanfare: Ah, no idea offhand then. At my work we use an Asterisk based system
[17:22] <genii> (well, FreePBX now)
[17:22] <Fanfare> genii: just courious, how is asterisk setup? what does it do for you?
[17:24] <Fanfare> genii: well, actually im rethinking my missed calls stuff...
[17:25] <genii> Fanfare: We have a dedicated box with 2 Digium cards, hooked to our fax and our voice lines. Incoming faxes are converted to pdf and emailed out ... voice calls are directed by dialling plan to whoever is available at what hour to help, or if no one around then recorded and emailed
[17:26] <reboot_> hi, i have a problem with a kubuntu computer, when i stat it it have some dead pixels at the buttom of the screen(software must be the cause) and then the monitor start "flickering"
[17:26] <genii> Fanfare: That box also serves as a faxout machine, we print to it and it faxes the doc out, making a copy to pdf for archives
[17:27] <Fanfare> genii: ok, hows prinitng done? cups?
[17:27] <Fanfare> reboot_: sounds like wrong resolution
[17:28] <Fanfare> reboot_: u dont get to the desktop?
[17:28] <genii> Fanfare: Yes, it is setup as a generic postscript printer, when the job executes the server requests phone # to use for faxing out
[17:28] <reboot_> i do get a desktop
[17:29] <genii> reboot_: Is it some Intel graphics card? They currently have a known issue
[17:29] <reboot_> and it works for a few minutes until the flickering starts and the system lags
[17:29] <reboot_> nvidia
[17:30] <genii> reboot_: Did you run jockey-kde  and install the nvidia driver, or just using what the system installed (probably vesa) ?
[17:30] <sczgilae> please, anyones help me?     cannot mount shared directory using this script:    http://pastebin.com/d27daa856       it says that only root can mount
[17:31] <Fanfare> reboot_: what driver, what card? did u try renaming /etc/X11/xorg.conf?
[17:31] <reboot_> a nvidia driver, i wasn't the one to install it, not sure of the card
[17:31] <Fanfare> sczgilae: try adding to /etc/fstab with option users
[17:31] <genii> Fanfare: xorg.conf doesn't exist by default anymore
[17:32] <reboot_> any way to reenable xorg.conf?
[17:32] <Fanfare> genii: right, i have one because of dualscreen :-) tẃinview
[17:32] <sczgilae> Fanfare:  fstab is not solution because i want to mount this directory with diferents users and permissions
[17:32] <sczgilae> and not always
[17:32] <James147> reboot_: sudo nvidia-xvonfig will generage an xorg.conf
[17:33] <James147> reboot_: nvidia-xconfig ^^
[17:33] <reboot_> ok
[17:33] <reboot_> as for the flickering it is the preinstalled nvidia driver folowing ubuntu
[17:34] <reboot_> unless i am wrong
[17:35] <reboot_> the card is if i am not mistaken a 8600 gts
[17:39] <sewa> hi! im using kde 4.3.1 (@karmic) and im using compiz (in my laptop runs faster than kwin), well, is a way to use kwin decorations? in fusion-icon i only have gtk-window-decorator and emerald
[17:40] <genii> reboot_: What does:  lspci -nn | grep VGA      say for the card?
[17:41] <Fanfare> !karmic | sewa
[17:41] <sewa> i know
[17:41] <sewa> ¬¬
[17:41] <sewa> whatever
[17:42] <genii> sewa: So then ask in #ubuntu+1 and not here until after official release date :)
[17:42] <reboot_> i will try that one

[18:01] <genii> reboot_: Does:  apt-cache policy nvidia-glx-180                        report that package as installed?
[18:05] <stefano> ciao

[18:08] <drbobb> hello folks, anyone else here with a broadcom wireless in their laptop: did your wireless also stop working after the latest kernel update?
[18:10] <drbobb> my status is: 2.6.28-14 - b43 driver works pretty well, 2.6.28-15 - no luck connecting
[18:10] <reboot_> nvidia-glx-180 is installed
[18:11] <genii> reboot_: You should probably then try someone's previous suggestion of: sudo nvidia-xconfig                    to generate a prototype xorg.conf file
[18:13] <reboot_> ok, i will try that then
[18:13] <reboot_> thank you

[18:33] <Ben348> Hi, I'm trying to get Wifi working on my laptop. I have found this guide http://www.ubuntugeek.com/atheros-5007eg-with-madwifi-on-i386-platform.html but  it says "unable to resolve host address `snapshots.madwifi.org'" has the madwifi site mvoed ?
[18:35] <genii> Ben348: http://snapshots.madwifi-project.org/
[18:36] <Ben348> Ooh ok thanks genii, I did post my problem on a forum http://kubuntuforums.net/forums/index.php?topic=3106722.0 but got no reply so just going to try this quickly.
[18:38] <sczgilae> anybody knows if normal users can mount in the konsola an shared network directory ?
[18:53] <AndySpain> genii: I never started anything manually, no start x. i was always only get to login console, have my  name there and enter the pw
[19:12] <nicholas_> hello

[19:17] <Dr_Rita_Oswald> Hello
[19:17] <hallowname> oy. have any ninjas here tried discburner yet?
[19:18] <genii> !hi | Dr_Rita_Oswald
[19:20] <AndySpain> genii: still not gettin in.
[19:20] <AndySpain> should i do chown user:user  /home/user ??
[19:21] <genii> AndySpain: At this point probably can't hurt anything
[19:21] <administrator_> hey guys. any idea how to install firefox 3.5 in ubuntu?
[19:21] <genii> administrator_: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install firefox-3.5
[19:25] <wowa> wie kann man in kubuntu dolphin bei Orte die partitionen umbenennen ?
[19:25] <genii> !de | wowa
[19:26] <wowa> oh sorry
[19:27] <AndySpain> genii: chown doesn't help
[19:28] <genii> AndySpain: try the recursive:  sudo chown -R user:user /home/user
[19:29] <Ben349> Hi I installed Kubuntu on my computer but want to remove it, do I just click "Delete volume" http://grab.by/6PC ? I want to do this so i can re-install it and allocate less space to it
[19:30] <genii> Ben349: Why not just boot to GParted cdrom and resize?
[19:31] <AndySpain> genii: done, still no change. reboot required?
[19:31] <Ben349> I think I messed up some settings for my wifi not to work, because it used to on kubuntu. So just thought I could re-install that would fix it
[19:31] <genii> AndySpain: Not for that.
[19:31] <AndySpain> damn
[19:31] <AndySpain> then i really screwed my system
[19:31] <AndySpain> :-(
[19:32] <genii> AndySpain: Maybe mv the ~/.kde     dir someplace temporary
[19:32] <AndySpain> so that a new onewill becreated?
[19:34] <genii> AndySpain: Yes, exactly
[19:37] <administrator_> is there any major difference between 8.04 and 9.04?
[19:39] <hanshenrik> boot speed, for one..
[19:39] <hanshenrik> (its really the only 1 i've really noticed :p)
[19:41] <administrator_> i dont know to upgrade or not. thats the problem.
[19:43] <genii> Ouch
[19:46] <jhutchins_lt> Is KDE3.5 available on 9.04?
[19:47] <genii> Not officially, but there is a site
[19:48] <genii> jhutchins_lt: http://apt.pearsoncomputing.net/cdimages/
[19:51] <jhutchins_lt> Hm, maybe we can get some of the mandriva people to go onboard with him and help support the site.
[19:51] <genii> They also have their KDE4 dissenters? ;)
[19:51] <orion> hi All

[19:55] <njathan> i am using kmail fo gmail access... now there's a nagging bar that appears at the bottom of every HTML message (which rightly seems to contain HTML files). How do i get rid of this extra-broad "status bar"?
[19:56] <Lenin_Cat> the bot isnt giving me access to #ubuntu so ill just ask here...
[19:56] <Lenin_Cat> Can you install a full installation(IE not wubi) on a partition that has windows on it?
[19:58] <genii> Lenin_Cat: You mean and also keep the Windows?
[19:58] <Lenin_Cat> genii: yes.
[19:58] <genii> No
[19:59] <Ben349> Is there a way to say "reformat" linux like Windows has ?
[19:59] <njathan> okay.. problem solved... "Kmail Settings" -> Appearance -> Layout -> Message Structure Viewer -> "Never Show"
[20:00] <genii> Ben349: During install process it usually asks if you want to format the partition you are installing (K)ubuntu to
[20:01] <Ben349> ahh ok, so if i just install the live disk then i can just re-install over the existing one ?
[20:02] <genii> Ben349: Yes
[20:02] <Ben349> thanks genii ill do that :)
[20:04] <eric12> i need help with my ubuntu.
[20:06] <genii> eric12: If you have Kubuntu, we can help with that. for regular Ubuntu please visit #ubuntu channel instead
[20:09] <Lenin_Cat> can you make ubuntu ignore input/output errors during install
[20:13] <Anzo> hello all, is anyone in here working with karmic?
[20:14] <genii> Anzo: #ubuntu+1 for discussion of Karmic please
[20:17] <AndySpain> genii: sorry, had to be afk for some minutes
[20:17] <AndySpain> mv .kde .kdetmp - then login - no change
[20:18] <genii> AndySpain: Bah. I'm out of immediate ideas on it now
[20:19] <AndySpain> me too
[20:19] <AndySpain> thank you very much, nonetheless
[20:19] <AndySpain> your help was apreciated
[20:20] <genii> AndySpain: You're welcome, disappointed not to have been of more service
[20:21] <AndySpain> maybe I'll somhow get it fixed, some other day
[20:22] <AndySpain> genii: comparing .kde on the non-working machine and on the working machine I find that in the working one there are lib and shutdown
[20:23] <AndySpain> in the nonworking one they are missing
[20:23] <AndySpain> could this have to do with the prob?
[20:24] <AndySpain> shutdown is empty though
[20:27] <genii> AndySpain: It's conceivable but why it would cause this issue is beyond me
[20:27] <AndySpain> sudo apt-get purge kubuntu-desktop only frees few kb, what is the packet I have to remove and install agian for the entire kde?
[20:27] <AndySpain> I rather not simply copy .kde from here, since this here is intrepid and the one with issues is jaunty
[20:28] <AndySpain> unless you tell me they use the very same kde - which I sort of doubt
[20:29] <genii> No, they're probably not
[20:30] <AndySpain> but reinstalling kde might work, dunno which package though
[20:30] <genii> AndySpain: I'm not sure "apt-get purge something" works. I think it's supposed to be more like: sudo apt-get remove --purge something
[20:34] <AndySpain> same result, removes only 49,2 k
[20:34] <AndySpain> and still no login
[20:34] <AndySpain> anyway, I'll check by tomorrow and hope someone can help
[20:34] <AndySpain> thank you genii
[21:03] <Galvatron> Hi
[21:04] <Galvatron> I was messing with folder permissions in my Kubuntu9.04 and now I can't login to KDE
[21:05] <Galvatron> First I got a kdestarupconfig4 error
[21:05] <Galvatron> And after fixing this with quicky installed LXDE
[21:05] <Galvatron> I got another error - this time KDE has no permissions to write in my $HOME folder
[21:06] <Galvatron> And I still can't log in
[21:07] <Galvatron> I was messing with those permissions to make Compiz work properly

[21:17] <dfaure> Riddell: could libicecc-dev be upgraded? It's still 0.9.1 in jaunty, while ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/projects/icecream has 0.9.4 (since april; 0.9.2 is from nov 2008)
[21:17] <dfaure> (prevents compiling icemon, some api is missing)
[21:19] <Riddell> dfaure: it's at 0.9.4 in karmic so it's a backport that's needed
[21:19] <dfaure> ah, that's good at least. I thought it hadn't been updated for a very long time ;)
[21:20] <Galvatron> Sorry
[21:20] <Galvatron> Did someone write to me?
[21:21] <Galvatron> I was trying something else and had to log out from system
[21:21] <Riddell> dfaure: I filed bug 439618, give me a poke if I don't get round to it in the next day or so
[21:21] <dfaure> Riddell: great, thx a lot
[21:33] <TechN9ne> is SSh ipodtouch supported in amarok 2?

[21:48] <Heliwr> hello all, I have a jaunty install set up to use an nvidia gpu but due to an incompatibility with a new motherboard I have to remove the gpu and use the integrated intel graphics. I reset my xorg.conf and the system initially seems to boot ok, but then all of the fonts are tiny to the point of unreadability. Any ideas how I can fix that?
[22:15] <AndySpain> can anybody help me? I cannot login into kde anymore. I get to the login screen again after entering login name and pw
[22:15] <AndySpain> .xsession-errors says: "open: Permission denied"

[22:17] <AndySpain> reinstalled kdm, problem still there
[22:19] <AndySpain> ctrl+alt+f1 and I can login, but not into kde. how can I revive my kde?
[22:22] <Fanfare> AndySpain: well renaming ~/.kde could help
[22:23] <AndySpain> Fanfare: tried this as well.
[22:24] <AndySpain> Furthermore the problem arises for all users, not just one
[22:24] <AndySpain> :-(
