| BluesKaj | areay0, install fglrxgears | 16:33 |
|---|---|---|
| areay0 | BluesKaj, there's no package by that name | 16:34 |
| areay0 | BluesKaj, google doesn't know how to install it either | 16:36 |
| BluesKaj | areay0, forgotten the exact name of the app | 16:39 |
| BluesKaj | mesa-utils | 16:39 |
| BluesKaj | depends on your ati driver | 16:40 |
| areay0 | mesa utils is already installed. | 16:40 |
| BluesKaj | I used to use ati , but I've switched to nvidia and things have changed somewhat i guess | 16:40 |
| areay0 | i tried running fgl_glxgears, and it told me to install xorg-driver-fglrx (which is what messed things up before) | 16:41 |
| areay0 | (i think) | 16:41 |
| BluesKaj | no , the xorg-driver-fglrx is like a plugin, but let me look around | 16:42 |
| areay0 | kk# | 16:43 |
| === areay0 is now known as areay | ||
| BluesKaj | ok, the xorg-driver-fglrx is a complete driver from what i can tell | 16:44 |
| BluesKaj | so we need to avoid that | 16:44 |
| areay | ok | 16:45 |
| BluesKaj | areay, dunno if there's a work around or not , more research is needed | 16:45 |
| areay | BluesKaj, can i pm you my glxinfo output | 16:45 |
| BluesKaj | yeah | 16:45 |
| linuxguy | hi has anyone tried using the flrx drivers with 9.04? | 16:48 |
| BluesKaj | linuxguy, depends on your ati card | 17:00 |
| BluesKaj | anyway, I'm going for my daily walk ...bb in an hr or so | 17:01 |
| linuxguy | BluesKaj: I am using an ati 9500 card, ive been reading up and its not promising | 17:01 |
| BluesKaj | pci? | 17:01 |
| linuxguy | BluesKaj: no its an agp one :(# | 17:02 |
| BluesKaj | ok , but it's a stand alone | 17:03 |
| BluesKaj | ok gone for sure now...BBL | 17:06 |
| === areay is now known as areay0 | ||
| areay | i just installed fglrx for my ati card... after logging into kdm, i get nothing but a black screen, a cursor, and a login sound... | 17:09 |

| areay | actually don't.. come back... you're the only one i'm getting any sense out of | 17:14 |
| lolsauc3 | okay, BluesKaj, I'm going to try and boot my other comp into kubuntu. (this is lolb0t) and I'll type the results here. | 17:14 |
| areay | lolsauc3, unfortunately BlueKaj has gone... and now we're down to 0 people who know what they're doing | 17:15 |
| areay | out of 284 | 17:15 |
| lolsauc3 | oy :< | 17:15 |
| areay | lol | 17:15 |
| lolsauc3 | damn | 17:15 |
| lolsauc3 | I really want to get this crap working :P | 17:16 |
| areay | me too lol | 17:16 |
| areay | i would ask in #ubuntu but you can't get an answer there for the opposite reason | 17:16 |
| areay | within 30 seconds of you typing something, it's lost in a sea of other people's questions | 17:17 |
| areay | here it just sits there and nobody says anything | 17:17 |
| areay | my question: what's the point? | 17:17 |
| lolsauc3 | lol, I dont know | 17:18 |
| lolsauc3 | generally linux is pretty user friendly, especially ubuntu, but you always have a lemon and cant find your drivers ANYWHERE. especially with newer computers | 17:18 |
| lolsauc3 | I on the other hand, am having problems booting | 17:19 |
| areay | imho: linux is as far from user-friendly as you can get (get a mac if that's what you want), ubuntu is the exception (in some situations)... the reason ubuntu is user-friendly is because it comes with everything a STANDARD user needs to work with... as soon as you want to do anything different you spend hours on borums and irc channels not getting the answers you need | 17:20 |
| CyberKitsune | Hello? | 17:22 |
| areay | CyberKitsune, can you hear the echoes? | 17:23 |
| CyberKitsune | I was using Kubuntu, but I want to switch to Ubuntu, so I installed ubuntu-desktop, and GDM is default, but, Kubuntu is still there. | 17:23 |
| areay | CyberKitsune, you need to remove kubuntu-desktop | 17:24 |
| CyberKitsune | I did that as well | 17:24 |
| CyberKitsune | It didn't uninstall any other packages, just kubuntu-desktop | 17:24 |
| areay | so it's firing up GDM, but going into kde when you login? | 17:24 |
| CyberKitsune | No | 17:25 |
| CyberKitsune | I go into GNOME | 17:25 |
| CyberKitsune | But KDE is still there | 17:25 |
| CyberKitsune | as well as all of the KDE apps | 17:25 |
| areay | yeah that can be annoying | 17:25 |
| CyberKitsune | Do I have to manually uninstall all of the kde stuff? | 17:26 |
| areay | CyberKitsune, i think you do, but someone's already written all the commands | 17:26 |
| areay | i found it on google the other day | 17:26 |
| areay | hold up | 17:26 |
| CyberKitsune | k | 17:27 |
| areay | CyberKitsune, are you using 9.04? | 17:28 |
| CyberKitsune | 9.10 Alpha9... but should be the same packages as 9.04 | 17:29 |
| CyberKitsune | er | 17:29 |
| CyberKitsune | Whatever Alpha they are at | 17:29 |
| areay | lol | 17:29 |
| areay | try this: | 17:29 |
| areay | http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/puregnome | 17:30 |
| areay | CyberKitsune, let me know if it works for you# | 17:32 |
| CyberKitsune | It works, BUT, you need to remove the package "dontzap" from the list, as 9.10 doesn't have that | 17:32 |
| CyberKitsune | after that, it works perfectly | 17:33 |

| lolsauc3 | I always get that for some reason | 18:11 |
| lolsauc3 | should I get the 64 bit version instead? | 18:11 |
| BluesKaj | if you have 64 bit kubuntu installed , you could try , lolsauc3 | 18:13 |
| === root is now known as Guest39078 | ||
| lolsauc3 | I'll have to go put it on a live disc | 18:13 |
| lolsauc3 | would it work better for a p3 800mhz? | 18:13 |
| BluesKaj | lolsauc3, only if you have a 64 bit cpu | 18:14 |
| lolsauc3 | I'll have to find out about that one | 18:14 |
| lolsauc3 | idk if it's 64 bit | 18:14 |
| lolsauc3 | hangon | 18:14 |
| BluesKaj | 800mhz is quite old , it's prolly just x86 | 18:15 |
| BluesKaj | x86=32bit | 18:15 |
| lolsauc3 | okay | 18:15 |
| lolsauc3 | yeah, it's old, but I got it for practically free | 18:16 |
| BluesKaj | ok, what are you trying now , lolsauc3 ? | 18:16 |
| lolsauc3 | I"m going to keep rebooting until I find the errors again, I've had one successful boot out of 2 so far | 18:17 |

| lolsauc3 | let me try again | 18:17 |
| lolsauc3 | I'm using kubuntu right now | 18:17 |
| BluesKaj | live cd or install ? | 18:17 |
| lolsauc3 | live cd | 18:17 |
| BluesKaj | you might try XFCE desktop, it's lighter on the RAM but very useful | 18:18 |
| BluesKaj | !xubuntu | 18:18 |

| lolsauc3 | I used xubuntu before this, I got the same problems, idk if it's because of my ram, because windows and linux only recognize 320 of the 512 (or something around there) | 18:19 |
| BluesKaj | Ram is cheap , it's worth upgrading to 1Gig if possible | 18:20 |
| lolsauc3 | that's the thing, it says that the computer is only capable of using 192 mb (128 + the embedded 64mb) and that could be part of it, as there is a 512 stick in there | 18:21 |
| lolsauc3 | I mean, it boots and memtest is cool with recognizing 320 of it | 18:22 |
| lolsauc3 | I'll have to run memtest again | 18:22 |
| lolsauc3 | I just love kde4 though | 18:23 |
| lolsauc3 | it's gorgeous lol | 18:23 |

| kiiru | hey guys | 18:24 |
| kiiru | i seem to be having a problem getting my usb mouse to work with kubuntu as far as i know it's in kubuntu 9.04 with kde4 any ideas? | 18:25 |
| lolsauc3 | kiiru, did the mouse come with a driver disc for windows? | 18:26 |
| lolsauc3 | or was it just plug and play? | 18:26 |
| kiiru | no it's plug and play | 18:26 |
| lolsauc3 | are you on a laptop or desktop? | 18:26 |
| kiiru | desktop | 18:26 |
| kiiru | well currently on a laptop but i'm refering to the desktop | 18:27 |
| lolsauc3 | okay | 18:27 |
| BluesKaj | lolsauc3, maybe a bios upgrade flash is in order for the motherboard , 800 mhz pc usually can handle up 512 if not more . The RAM installed isn't working right or is the wrong type , some pcs don't like unbalanced RAM values in the memory slots . 128 and 256 for example ...better to have just one 256 or 512 , or 2 256s | 18:27 |
| lolsauc3 | is the usb port you're referring to a part of the motherboard, or is it a pci card? | 18:28 |
| kiiru | i know it works with ps2 mice, but i don't have one on hand anymore | 18:28 |
| kiiru | i've tried it on the motherboard usb slots and the pci ones | 18:28 |
| lolsauc3 | and BluesKaj, where would I find a bios upgrade? I havent seen one on hp's site | 18:28 |
| lolsauc3 | okay, does kubuntu recognize that it's plugged in or does it disregard it? and does the laser come on? | 18:29 |
| BluesKaj | lolsauc3, find out what motherboard is installed on your pc on the HP site with a mosel number search | 18:29 |
| BluesKaj | model | 18:29 |
| kiiru | i'm not sure, as far as i can see it disregards it, but the laser never comes on it's not designed to | 18:29 |
| lolsauc3 | it's a laptop, the model is compaq presario 18XL580 | 18:30 |
| lolsauc3 | BluesKaj, ^ | 18:30 |
| lolsauc3 | so it's a ball mouse kiiru ? | 18:30 |
| BluesKaj | lolsauc3, then look for the motherboard make and model | 18:30 |
| lolsauc3 | okay | 18:30 |
| === areay is now known as areay0 | ||
| kiiru | no it's a lazer mouse that doen't have a visable light led, | 18:31 |
| kiiru | i assume it's infra red, not i've no way os testing it | 18:31 |
| kiiru | ok i opened it up and there's an led on the c.board it turns on so there is power going to the device | 18:33 |
| lolsauc3 | okay | 18:34 |
| lolsauc3 | so does that led light up when it's plugged in? | 18:34 |
| kiiru | yes | 18:35 |
| lolsauc3 | BluesKaj, I found a new bios | 18:35 |
| lolsauc3 | I'll flash that on | 18:35 |
| lolsauc3 | and kiiru, I'm not sure why it wouldnt work. does the device work on windows pcs? | 18:36 |
| kiiru | yer it works fine with my laptop (vista) | 18:36 |
| kiiru | the computer it self may be too old or something | 18:36 |
| BluesKaj | lolsauc3, now follow the instructions for flashging your bios very carefully | 18:36 |
| lolsauc3 | yeah, if you do it wrong the pc is screwed right? | 18:36 |
| lolsauc3 | :P | 18:36 |
| BluesKaj | lolsauc3, yup | 18:37 |
| lolsauc3 | it's all in a windows executable | 18:37 |
| BluesKaj | lolsauc3, do you have windows partition ? | 18:38 |
| lolsauc3 | yes, right now the pc is all running on windows | 18:38 |
| lolsauc3 | I was going to repartition it and put kubuntu on the other partition | 18:38 |
| BluesKaj | lolsauc3, ok run the bios flash as per instructions on windows then , partition your drive and then install kubuntu , you can checl with the kubuntu live cd if the bios flash helped | 18:40 |
| lolsauc3 | sure thing | 18:40 |
| lolsauc3 | the description of the ROM update I'm downloading: creates a bootable diskette to update the System ROM | 18:41 |

| Mr_Giraffe | oh, right, I mean installing new themes | 22:27 |
| Mr_Giraffe | or new window borders...whatever the right term is | 22:27 |
| Ev0luti0n_ | i couldn't figure that out yet | 22:28 |
| Ev0luti0n_ | fiddle around with the settings on the settings panel | 22:28 |
| Ev0luti0n_ | :) | 22:28 |
| Ev0luti0n_ | im a newbie also, i can't help you much | 22:28 |
| tsimpson | window themes need to be compiled, there are a couple included in kubuntu, search for kwin-style in a package manager | 22:28 |
| tsimpson | there's also kwin-style-dekorator, which lets you customize things more easily | 22:28 |
| Ev0luti0n_ | tsimpson: when you mean compiled, you mean installed through kpackagekit? | 22:29 |
| tsimpson | compiled means you download the source and turn it into binary modules | 22:29 |
| Ev0luti0n_ | erm...... | 22:29 |
| Ev0luti0n_ | it would be a neat thing if plasma themes also skinned window deco and kde stuff | 22:30 |
| tsimpson | dekorator makes things easier though | 22:30 |
| Ev0luti0n_ | very very neat | 22:30 |
| tsimpson | with decorator you shouldn't have to compile the themes made for it | 22:30 |
| tsimpson | *dekorator | 22:31 |
| Mr_Giraffe | hmm, I installed kwin-style-serenity and didn't really get anything... | 22:31 |
| Mr_Giraffe | do I need to restart KDE or something? | 22:31 |
| Ev0luti0n_ | installed that already | 22:31 |
| tsimpson | you should see it in as a style option in system settings | 22:31 |
| Mr_Giraffe | hmm, I'm not seeing it... | 22:32 |
| Mr_Giraffe | system settings -> appearance -> style? | 22:32 |
| tsimpson | under windows | 22:33 |
| Ev0luti0n_ | i installed kwin decorator | 22:33 |
| Ev0luti0n_ | and also can't find it | 22:33 |
| Mr_Giraffe | ruh roh | 22:33 |
| tsimpson | make sure to close/restart system settings after installing it | 22:33 |
| tsimpson | it only populates the list of styles on loading | 22:34 |
| Ev0luti0n_ | O.o | 22:34 |
| Mr_Giraffe | hmm, I feel like I'm probably doing something wrong here | 22:35 |
| Mr_Giraffe | given that I can't find the darn thing | 22:35 |
| tsimpson | System Settings -> Appearance -> Windows | 22:36 |
| Ev0luti0n_ | Mr_Giraffe: that is normal | 22:36 |
| tsimpson | there's a drop-down box with the styles | 22:36 |
| Ev0luti0n_ | i couldn't find the wallpapers when i first tried. Then after searching on the web, i learned that it was normal only 2 screensavers where installed. You had to install kscreensavers | 22:37 |
| Ev0luti0n_ | hehehe | 22:37 |
| mario__ | hola a todos | 22:37 |
| Ev0luti0n_ | boa noite | 22:37 |
| Mr_Giraffe | tsimpson: I'm going there and then there's no real change from what I had before | 22:39 |
| Mr_Giraffe | also hmm. for some reason the previews of the windows are rather...broken. | 22:40 |
| Ev0luti0n_ | fellas, for who enjoys hard techno | 22:41 |
| Ev0luti0n_ | http://91.121.211.203:8160 | 22:41 |
| Ev0luti0n_ | radio-tube.pl excellent stream radio now playing | 22:41 |
| tsimpson | Mr_Giraffe: I just installed dekorator and restarted system settings, then it showed up | 22:41 |
| Mr_Giraffe | tsimpson: how do I restart system settings? | 22:42 |
| Mr_Giraffe | killall ... & ...? | 22:42 |
| tsimpson | close it and reopen it | 22:42 |
| Mr_Giraffe | hmm | 22:42 |
| Mr_Giraffe | I did the same thing and I don't see anything referencing dekorator under settings -> appearance -> windows | 22:42 |
| tsimpson | in the drop-down list you should see "DeKorator" | 22:43 |
| Mr_Giraffe | right, but I'm not seeing that... | 22:44 |
| tsimpson | after installing kwin-style-dekorator? | 22:44 |
| Mr_Giraffe | yep | 22:44 |
| Mr_Giraffe | installed kwin-style-dekorator and style-settings doesn't have anything in it | 22:44 |
| Mr_Giraffe | grr, I keep having issues with system tray icon corruption too. :( | 22:45 |
| tsimpson | shows up under system settings -> appearance -> windows for me: http://img408.imageshack.us/i/systemsettings.jpg/ | 22:47 |
| Mr_Giraffe | strange | 22:48 |
| Mr_Giraffe | I'll just restart KDE real quick and that should (ideally) get it there | 22:48 |
| Mr_Giraffe | hmm...still no luck | 22:51 |
| Mr_Giraffe | you know, I'm also having some issues with corruption of the window bars in the preview window thing and also icon corruption in the system tray | 22:52 |
| tsimpson | the preview thing is known, and some GTK icons do become corrupt, but that's down to the icons GTK apps use | 22:53 |
| Mr_Giraffe | it's with all of them actually | 22:54 |
| tsimpson | all of them, that's strange | 22:54 |
| Mr_Giraffe | the default volume icon is about half missing atm | 22:54 |
| Mr_Giraffe | there appear to be some strange bugs going on here... | 22:55 |
| === phoenix is now known as Xineohp | ||
| shadowhywind | just wondering, since its slow, anyone running karmic here? | 23:07 |
| Mr_Giraffe | shadowhywind: nope, intrepid | 23:07 |
| Mr_Giraffe | oh right | 23:08 |
| shadowhywind | ah | 23:08 |
| Mr_Giraffe | tsimpson: when I change the plasma theme to gaia the text on the system tray is still black, making the whole thing kinda tough to read...any way to get around that? | 23:08 |
| tsimpson | Mr_Giraffe: you have text in the system tray? | 23:09 |
| Mr_Giraffe | tsimpson: er, task manager | 23:10 |
| Mr_Giraffe | sorry, bad with nomenclature | 23:10 |
| tsimpson | Mr_Giraffe: I think that should be down to the theme used, but you should be able to edit it from System s | 23:14 |
| tsimpson | System Settings -> Appearance -> Colors | 23:14 |
| tsimpson | I'm not sure there is a way, without editing the theme actually... | 23:16 |
| === jon is now known as Guest88213 | ||
| Mr_Giraffe | tsimpson: when I hit alt-f2 to bring up the run command window, is that themed by plasma? | 23:46 |
| Ev0luti0n_ | yup | 23:46 |
| tsimpson | it is | 23:47 |
| Mr_Giraffe | hmm, strange | 23:48 |
| Mr_Giraffe | because that window seems to be stuck themed by gaia...whereas the rest of my plasma theme is not | 23:48 |
| tsimpson | wait until you see a notification, quite ugly IMO | 23:50 |
| Mr_Giraffe | oh, gaia is? | 23:50 |
| tsimpson | yeah, all white with a rainbow circle thing | 23:51 |
| Mr_Giraffe | right now my main concern is the fact that the task manager is hopelessly broken when I try to use gaia | 23:52 |
| Mr_Giraffe | black text on dark grey...not so nice | 23:52 |
| tsimpson | http://img522.imageshack.us/img522/2746/snap2z.jpg | 23:53 |
| tsimpson | not pretty | 23:53 |
| Mr_Giraffe | ugh | 23:53 |
| Mr_Giraffe | what's with the jagged edges...? | 23:53 |
| Mr_Giraffe | that's awful | 23:53 |
| tsimpson | and it's really large, doesn't need to be anywhere near that size | 23:54 |
| Mr_Giraffe | mm | 23:55 |
| Mr_Giraffe | man, I'm still having this icon corruption issue | 23:55 |
| Mr_Giraffe | I'm not quire sure what's going on there... | 23:55 |
