rejohnI'm seeing spurious graphics problems on both my desktip & laptop using 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?  Is it KDE, KUbuntu, Ubuntu issue???00:17

rabidweezleman, I love that analog clock widget08:48
josh_hmm i like gnome better at the moment08:48
al_nzI am following some instructions. The Instructions say to install a lib. via sudo apt-get install libstdc++6-pic, yet the command fails. This seems to be a common problem for me with instructions about installing libraries via instructions on the net. why is this? do the lib names change with each release or something???08:49
rabidweezleusing gnome in kubuntu?08:49
rabidweezlewhat I usally do is like, sudo apt-get install lib(first few letters) and see what's available08:49
josh_nah i have kde and gnome on ubuntu08:49
rabidweezleand hit tab08:49
rabidweezlelike if I am looking for SDL libs, I do like, sudo apt-get install libsdl[tab][tab]08:50
rabidweezleand see what is available08:50
rabidweezlethen if I am getting those libs to compile something I look for the -dev packages08:51
al_nzrabidweezle:  that worked a treat. looks like the version numbers changed since the instructions, and the tab trick was just what I was looking for :-)08:51
al_nznice!08:51
rabidweezleglad to help :)08:52
josh_wow i never new to do that08:52
rabidweezlethat's one reason I will only use linux is tab completion for just about everything08:52
josh_lol wow is that all08:53
Mamarokjosh_: you can use it in the chat client, too, btw08:53
rabidweezleI said 1 reason08:53
rabidweezlethere's tons really08:53
josh_HOLY CRAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!08:53
rabidweezlebut I can't stand trying to do something in a command prompt and not having my tab completion08:54

al_nzrabidweezle: : so what about this error : error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3:08:54
al_nzi cant find a lib called libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3:08:54
rabidweezleal_nz, do a search in synaptic for libc6.2-2.so.3 and see what package provides it and install it08:55
rabidweezleor just sudo apt-get install build-essential08:55
josh_eny1 use guake?08:55
rabidweezleI think build-essential covers that08:55
al_nzrabidweezle:  ok, but given the version numbers in the instructions seem out of date, should I just be looking for something close?08:55
rabidweezleis guake like a drop down console?08:56
josh_yep08:56
josh_im having a look at it now08:56
josh_i like it08:56
rabidweezleI use tilda for that08:56
rabidweezlebut I am too addicted to konsole08:56
josh_its convenient08:56
rabidweezleal_nz, yeah, sudo apt-get install libc6[tab]tab]08:57
josh_im acualy useing this in vmware08:57
josh_wait virtualbox i mean lol08:57
rabidweezleafk08:58
al_nzrabidweezle: i typed it into synaptic, but there is a LONG list. and none of the package names seem to match the search term?08:58
josh_i use vista but did have a native ubuntu install for quite a while tho going to lan partys and stuff ment i needed games to play with all the other ppl so i went back to windows08:58
al_nzok, so running sudo apt-get install build-essential now, I assume it instals essential libraries that I would typically need for ...________?09:01

n3glvmust do from a live cd or usb09:37
rabidweezleif my nvidia fails because of a bad setting I can still get to a terminal  with ctrl+alt+f1 :/09:37
Boui don't understand why a wrong config of x would prevent to gain access to a terminal with ctrl + alt + f1 ..09:37
Boun3glv: you have tried such key combo?09:38
n3glvyes, can get almost there, till xdm or gdm or whatever starts, then it locks up09:38
rabidweezlethen ctrl+alt+f1 a few times09:38
rabidweezleunless gdm/kdm keeps restarting itself in an infinate loop09:39
rabidweezlethen you could be screwed09:39
n3glvit does09:39
n3glvso, back to chroot09:39
n3glvright?09:39
rabidweezlelike if you can get to a terminal fast enough you can type in sudo /etc/init.d/kdm stop and it should stop doing that09:39
rabidweezlethough I haven't seen that ever happen even on my wife's radeon :/09:40
rabidweezleand if you have sshd installed on the box, there's always that option, just ssh'ing in and doing whatever, and restarting kdm09:42

rabidweezleoh, so you want to downgrade from 5.1 to 5.0?10:43
TaratorNo not really! (Thx for info, I'll use paste.ubuntu.com in future) When I try to install 5.1 I get dependency errors with plasma-widget packages (Please uninstall before)10:45
TaratorI installed KDE 4.3from launchpad.net repository (I think)10:46
rabidweezleo_O mysql is used for the widget system? Wow.. I'm not touching this10:46
* rabidweezle points to Mamarok 10:46
TaratorI'm also wondering about this.... the only mysql thing I've installed till now is the mysql-server-core-5.010:48
ghostcubeTarator: sudo apt-get -f install10:49
ghostcubein terminal pls10:49
Taratorsudo apt-get -f install showed me 5 packages to remove, which I've done with sudo apt-get autoremove10:54
ghostcubetry to install what you want again10:55
MamarokTarator: does this solve your problem? Currently there are two mysql versions in use on KDE 4.3.1, Mysql 5.0 for Akonadi and mysql 5.1 for Amarok10:55
Mamarokand the latter is a special package dragged in by Amarok10:55
Tarator@ghostcube i tried to install 5.1 but still dependency error with plasma-widget-workspace10:55
Tarator@Mamarok that doesn't really help (I uninstalled amarok now) but still the same problem....11:00
TaratorHmmmm... i remember, that i tried to install mysql 6.0-alpha about half a year ago from source. But it didn't work... so i made make clean and make distclean....11:01
MamarokTarator: could you please pastebin the exact output and give the URL here?11:01
Taratorok....11:02
TaratorHere the error when installing mysql-server-5.0 http://paste.ubuntu.com/286842/11:03
Taratorok... now i think i see the problem: Aborting downgrading from 5.1 to 5.011:04
TaratorBut anyway i also can't install 5.111:04
MamarokTarator: well, as I said before, KDE comes with a Mysql server for Akonadi, so it should be installed by default, and Amarok drags in the mysql embedded from 5.111:11
Mamarokwhat else do you need?11:11
TaratorMamarok: but i can't start the mysql server with /etc/init.d/mysql start11:12
MamarokTarator: because it is already running?11:12
Taratorsudo /etc/init.d/mysql status says it's stopped (it also fails starting on linux boot)11:13
Mamarokwell, it only starts on Akonadi start normally11:14
MamarokTarator: the 5.0 one that is11:14
MamarokTarator: did you try with a new user?11:14
TaratorMamarok: So i see: there's also something wrong with akonadi (and mysql) http://paste.ubuntu.com/286849/11:16
MamarokTarator: hm, I wonder if you just miss some packages, but you can configure Akonadi in the system settings advanced tab11:18
rungssIsn't there a path like remote:/ etc in konqueror for managing Cookies???11:18
MamarokTarator: which exact KDE version?11:18
Taratoris there a possibility to purge the whole mysql-server installation and reinstall it?11:19
TaratorMamarok: KDE 4.3.111:20
Mamarokon Jaunty?11:20
Taratoryes.11:20
Mamarokrungss: in the Knoqueror settings11:20
MamarokKonqueror*11:20
MamarokTarator: KDE 4.3.2 is currently prepared, you might want to upgrade, it's in the staging PPA for now11:21
Mamarok64 bit packages work fine for me, no packaging error11:21
rungssMamrok: yes but thats a Popup... I need to view and probably delete cookies after every page views...11:21
MamarokI just need to restart11:21
Mamarokrungss: Alt+F2 then type cookies11:22
TaratorMamarok: I think the problem with mysql occurs since i've tried to install mysql from source....11:22
MamarokTarator: well, you shouldn't do that in the first place, use the provided packages11:23
* Mamarok needs to restart KDE, brb11:23
rabidweezleI second that, only compile what's not in the distro is my theory to keep breakage to a minimum11:24
rabidweezleor if what's in the distro is broken or too old for your needs11:25
Taratorrabidweezle: i wanted to try the new features of (formerly) mysql6.0alpha11:25
Taratorthat was the reason why i tried to install it from source.... normally i use packages....11:26
rabidweezlethen it goes under the one in the repo was too old for your needs :)11:27
Taratorbut no i just want to have ANY myswl-server running.... :-(11:28
rabidweezle goto your source folder and sudo make uninstall?11:29
rabidweezlethen install from apt?11:29
MamarokTarator: then you need to upgrade to Karmic once it is out, but no idea if they ship the latest MySQL11:29
Taratori tried it, but no success with sudo make uninstall something seems to be still there....11:30
MamarokTarator: well, there are system dependencies you can not just override like this, try compiling KDE from trunk with the newer MySQL packages, that should work, but is a lot of hassle11:30
MamarokTarator: or install a rolling distro like Arch or Gentoo besides that one for testing11:31
Tarator*g* i think I'm not fit enough to struggle around with it.... (i even got problems with just one package) *blush*11:31
TaratorI don't need the new mysql anymore i would be happy with 5.0....11:31
rabidweezlewish I could help you, but I don't play with mysql really, not since my web server days.11:33
Taratori can understand this.....11:34
rabidweezlemight want to check in #ubuntu since it sounds like a apt issue11:34
rabidweezleand there's alot more people in there than here11:34
Taratoryes i'll try it there.... thx a lot for your help anybody!11:35
Mamarokrabidweezle: I doubt this would help, since Akonadi and other KDE mysql settings are not in Gnome...11:35
Mamarokand he tried to override system dependencies11:35
Mamarokanother logout test, brb11:36
rabidweezlek11:36
rabidweezlehey Mamarok, when I click logout, it shuts down, when I click shut down, it halts and stays on, any fix for that?11:41
Mamarokrabidweezle: that sounds strange, which KDE?11:42
* Mamarok just had a KDM crash with 4.3.2 in Jaunty11:42
rabidweezle4.2.211:42
Mamarokrabidweezle: well, you really should upgrade, see the topic :)11:42

Mamaroknoren: what is your question exactly?11:46
norenhow can i add and a new user and restrict its permission to limited folders only11:46
Mamaroknoren: well, a new user is by default limited to his own /home/newusername11:47
rabidweezlewell, if you make a new user, they are pretty much stuck in their home dir11:47
Mamarokso you usually don't have to restrict anything11:47
Mamarokonly the first user has sudo rights anyway11:48
norenrabidweezle: i just got my home folder transfered to a new partition now i want to make a new user so that they can share the music files kept in my /home folder11:48
rabidweezlethey can "read" but not write unless you change the permissions on the folder11:49
rabidweezlebasically right click the folder, goto properties, goto permissions, and set it up as you want11:50
rabidweezlethen to make it easy for them, make a symlink to it on their desktop or something like, ln -s /home/myusername/Music /home/theirusername/Desktop/bobs_music11:51
norenrabidweezle: i dont want the other user even to read into my home folder except the music folder11:52
=== karima is now known as karima_

rabidweezledo a test, make a user, see if it can access /home/yourname11:56
rabidweezlebecause I just did a test as my user, and it can't access /root (the admin home dir)11:57
Mamarokrabidweezle: why? if he didn't share that folder it will not be able to access it anyway11:57
rabidweezletrue11:57
Mamarokrabidweezle: of course not, only with sudo rights11:57
* rabidweezle nods11:57
Mamaroknoren: you only need to change the folder permissions for the /Music folder11:59

Mamaroksampo: right click on that clock and go to Digital Clock settings12:04

Mamaroktrue, and your system settings is set correctly for 24 hours?12:05

sampowas before upgrade (8.04 --> 9.04) and when I type terminal date, it shows with 24h12:06
Mamaroknoren: change the permissions for your /home folder then12:06
Mamarokanyway, it can only see the folder content, not enter or manipulate any files, unless you added the user to your group12:07
Mamaroknoren: you can do this in dolphin btw, right click on the /home/yourname folder -> Properties, then go to the Permissions tab and choose advanced permissions, remove the "View folder" mark from Others, but don't change the group setting12:09

itstkis it worth updating video card drivers for linux/17:55
itstk?*17:55
rafytafyif you will get new features out of them17:55
itstkwell i didnt have any preinstalled drivers on this machine.. i just threw in an old geforce fx card17:55
itstkI have no idea how to install drivers though :/17:56
geniiUsually the best available open-source driver is already installed. For proprietary drivers, to run the jockey-kde program and it would guide you through the latest available packaged driver which is not free. After that if a later one is needed, you'd need to go the manual route of d/l from manufacturer, etc17:57

glenndo you guys think ubuntu or windows is better, easier to use and user-friendly!??22:45
glennthe reason why most people use windows is that windows doesnt require these console commands, like DOS for example...its just plain and more Graphic User Interface (GUI) !22:47
SyrinxWell it depens how much u want to mess wth your computer22:48
glennif Ubuntu was more "dummy friendly" as i would like to put it and by that i mean easier to use and more stabile or crash safe...i think more people would use it more! ;D22:49
SyrinxWhen windows break usually best method is format C:, under linux, everything is fixable22:49
glennSyrinx . what do you mean: mess ?22:49
SyrinxWell do get something working whch doesn't but should22:49
SyrinxI had gazillion problems with my old computer. Only system that worked on that was debian22:50
glennSyrinx . yes, but thats a pro side on linux for advanced users, not for beginner/dummy users...whom for them its just easier to put a CD in the drive to do all the work and sadly to say, most people are like that... ;)22:51
SyrinxThis works qute well22:51
