[00:00] <nightwlkr> k3b will run with root priviledges
[00:00] <ibou> nightwlkr: i tryed
[00:01] <ibou> nightwlkr: doesnt work
[00:01] <error_1oo> hm
[00:01] <ibou> nightwlkr: same issue
[00:01] <ibou> nightwlkr: but the issue have not the same name each time
[00:02] <salpta> "Have not the same name each time"?
[00:02] <salpta> I don't understand.
[00:03] <nightwlkr> ibou 1 last try
[00:04] <nightwlkr> try setting a pass for root user in kusermanager
[00:04] <nightwlkr> su in teminal type in that pass
[00:04] <nightwlkr> then type k3b
[00:04] <MetroidMaster> Hello
[00:05] <nightwlkr> k3b will b run in root... if still gives u no acess than it's not user issue
[00:05] <MetroidMaster> Hey nightwlkr, the network driver you suggested for me didn't work with either of my wireless cards
[00:06] <MetroidMaster> And I couldn't get back to the original program, so I had to reinstall
[00:06] <nightwlkr> MetroidMaster:  what driver? wicd?
[00:06] <MetroidMaster> yeah
[00:06] <nightwlkr> wicd is a network manager not a driver
[00:06] <MetroidMaster> I'm saying it didn't work
[00:06] <nightwlkr> and i thought i told u to try ifconfig :P
[00:06] <nightwlkr> u didn't have to reinstall all u know
[00:07] <ibou> nightwlkr, salpta: ok i found what's my bug: my writing device is dead:s
[00:07] <nightwlkr> sudo apt-get netwok-manager would have fixed it
[00:07] <ibou> nightwlkr: sorry about this :D
[00:07] <MetroidMaster> I would've needed internet to get it
[00:07] <MetroidMaster> The wireless card was how I was able to get online
[00:08] <MetroidMaster> Any other ideas though?
[00:08] <salpta> Ibou: That could cause a problem ;)
[00:09] <ibou> salpta: lol. didnt think about thiat simple reason
[00:09] <ibou> ill try with a cleaning cdrom
[00:10] <MetroidMaster> Uh, anyone have any ideas for a better wireless manager program that supports a D-Link DWA-130? Right now I'm stuck with an older D-Link DWL-G120
[00:11] <MetroidMaster> Which is rather slow for me
[00:11] <r00t_ninja> is there any qt based gui for iptables?
[00:12] <salpta> ndiswrapper?
[00:12] <MetroidMaster> How would I extract the .exe files to get the drivers?
[00:13] <BluesKaj> !ndiswrapper
[00:13] <MetroidMaster> I've looked at that. I need specific, step-by-step instructions for that particular card
[00:14] <MetroidMaster> Or, if someone who's better with Linux could send me the files, I would really appreciate it.
[00:15] <BluesKaj> MetroidMaster, you have access to the driver if you have a windows partition using the same wifi card
[00:15] <r00t_ninja> MetroidMaster: its supposedly supported out of box
[00:15] <r00t_ninja> however
[00:15] <r00t_ninja> do you have wine?
[00:15] <MetroidMaster> No
[00:15] <MetroidMaster> I don't even know if that works
[00:15] <r00t_ninja> install wine
[00:15] <r00t_ninja> and then install the exe
[00:16] <r00t_ninja> get the drivers
[00:16] <r00t_ninja> and then your set
[00:16] <MetroidMaster> Okay
[00:16] <MetroidMaster> I'll give it a try
[00:16] <r00t_ninja> also try checking hardware drivers
[00:16] <r00t_ninja> if you have alternative internet access
[00:16] <MetroidMaster> Unfortunately, I don't
[00:17] <MetroidMaster> Do I get the regular one? Or the Beta release?
[00:17] <r00t_ninja> regular
[00:18] <MetroidMaster> Okay, I'm downloading it from the Software Manager
[00:18] <ramblagir> Is there a way to download all (or a large part) of the development tools packages in the main repository as a disk image?
[00:18] <MetroidMaster> So, how would I run the exe with Wine?
[00:19] <r00t_ninja> right click it
[00:19] <r00t_ninja> open with -> wine
[00:19] <MetroidMaster> ok
[00:20] <MetroidMaster> And that runs it as if it's in Windows?
[00:20] <ramblagir> MetroidMaster: yes
[00:21] <BluesKaj> MetroidMaster, r00t_ninja , this should work on kubuntu as well : http://forum.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?f=42&t=20331&start=0
[00:21] <r00t_ninja> you then can find the drivers in a subdirectory of ~.wine
[00:21] <r00t_ninja> you then can find the drivers in a subdirectory of ~/.wine
[00:22] <MetroidMaster> Well, unfortunately, I don't have the CD that came with the card. It somehow got broken
[00:24] <MetroidMaster> So I need to find a way to get the drivers off the program downloaded from the website
[00:25] <MetroidMaster> Perhaps someone could help me through a remote connection?
[00:26] <r00t_ninja> i could
[00:26] <BluesKaj> MetroidMaster, you can get the windows drivers , but I have the rt2870.inf file if you want it
[00:26] <MetroidMaster> What program should I install for that?
[00:27] <MetroidMaster> Yeah, the .inf file should help, right?
[00:27] <r00t_ninja> yea
[00:27] <MetroidMaster> Although Wine is still downloading. The card I'm using seems to only download at 20 kbps. I know it can go faster
[00:28] <BluesKaj> MetroidMaster, that's the one you want
[00:28] <MetroidMaster> Okay. And that allows me to use the DWA-130 with ndiswrapper?
[00:28] <r00t_ninja> yes
[00:28] <BluesKaj> sending
[00:28] <MetroidMaster> Thanks!
[00:29] <MetroidMaster> So, if I use ndiswrapper with the inf, I can use the DWA, correct?
[00:29] <BluesKaj> i can send the windows driver s as well
[00:30] <MetroidMaster> Sure
[00:30] <MetroidMaster> I didn't know you could transfer files over irc
[00:32] <BluesKaj> small files are fine to dcc
[00:32] <MetroidMaster> Ok, so I have to install ndiswrapper, and then run those files through it?
[00:33] <BluesKaj> MetroidMaster, follow the tutorial , just dont' worry about the cdrom part in step one http://forum.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?f=42&t=20331&start=0
[00:34] <MetroidMaster> ok
[00:37] <MetroidMaster> I'll let Wine finish downloading and installing, and then I'll get to the card
[00:37] <abi_> :(
[00:44] <MetroidMaster> Ndiswrapper came up as an invalid driver
[00:45] <mandragor> I'm running Karmic and installed wicd at some point because I had issues with knetworkmanager...how can i reinstall knetworkmanager? "apt-cache search knetworkmanager" gives nothing
[00:47] <MetroidMaster> Yeah, it doesn't seem to be working
[00:50] <r00t_ninja> MetroidMaster: ndiswrapper isnt working?
[00:51] <r00t_ninja> if you dont mind having a few gtk libraries try ndisgtk
[00:51] <The_Journey_> hi I can't install anything, when I try to install a package using apt-get it spit out this http://codepad.org/aQWotMGJ
[00:52] <MetroidMaster> Try using the Software manage
[00:52] <Salpt_AFK> aptitude search kdenetwork
[00:53] <Salpt_AFK> and network-manager
[00:53] <mandragor> The_Journey_: I think the limewire-package is missing a dependency, try installing gconf2
[00:55] <MetroidMaster> Anyone have any other ideas for my Wifi card?
[00:55] <The_Journey_> mandragor: thanks, apt-get works normally now
[00:55] <MetroidMaster> If anyone has any ideas for me, I'll PM the errors that I'm getting
[00:56] <mandragor> The_Journey_: no problem ;)
[01:00] <fede> arggg!! i cant change my screen resolution to 1024x768...
[01:01] <fede> This sucks please help me
[01:01] <MetroidMaster> What graphics card do you have?
[01:01] <fede> intel
[01:03] <fede> 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82945G/GZ Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 02)
[01:04] <MetroidMaster> Not sure how to help there, but I'm sure there are drivers. Check the Software Manager under "Other"
[01:04] <MetroidMaster> I'm using nVidia, so that's the only card I know how to find drivers for
[01:07] <salpta> Whats the problem with the intel graphics?
[01:07] <fede> i can't use more than 800x600 resolution

[02:50] <jardi> hi all
[02:51] <jardi> I'm a fresh new user of kubuntu, with a brand new installation of karmic, and I get a segmentation fault when I try to launch the firefox installer. Is it normal ?
[02:52] <jardi> Furthermore, the project https://launchpad.net/kubuntu-firefox-installer is said not to be registered in launchpad
[02:53] <jardi> oh, and I get more segfaults when I try to install language packages and enven when I try to use ubuntu-bug
[02:53] <Qu4Z> ... that doesn't sound healthy at all
[02:53] <jardi> thanks for reading me
[02:54] <jardi> as I said, fresh install from a media that I just checked for defects (seems ok)
[02:54] <jardi> any guess ?
[02:56] <jardi> by the way, where am I supposed to fill bugs : the launchpad project says that this project doesn't use launchpad and the kde bug notifier says it isn't managed by kde bugzilla
[02:58] <jardi> Qu4Z, do you have any suggestion ?
[02:59] <Qu4Z> I don't know. But if everything is segfaulting it doesn't sound like it's kubuntu-firefox-installer
[02:59] <jardi> indeed
[02:59] <Qu4Z> *Could* be a hardware problem? Run memtest... Alternatively, a reboot might help
[03:00] <jardi> memtest ?
[03:00] <superboy> my sound dont work after upgrade
[03:00] <Qu4Z> Choose memtest86+ or whatever in Grub when you're booting
[03:00] <jardi> I mean, I use ubuntu (with gnome) all the time and didn't get anything like that
[03:00] <Qu4Z> Hm... okay
[03:00] <Qu4Z> Try reinstalling? <_<
[03:00] <Qu4Z> I'm afraid I can't help much there
[03:01] <jardi> my ram could'nt have burned during the 15 minutes install
[03:01] <Qu4Z> It sounds like a fundamental system problem.
[03:01] <Qu4Z> You're right, it probably didn't.
[03:01] <Qu4Z> I have little experience in this area, btw
[03:01] <superboy> whats jockey
[03:02] <jardi> alright, I think I'll just go back to gnome
[03:02] <Qu4Z> jardi: Have you tried a reinstall?
[03:02] <Qu4Z> superboy: The restricted hardware driver manager, I think
[03:03] <superboy> how do i do that?
[03:03] <Qu4Z> It automatically installs closed drivers for hardware where the open drivers may not be perfect
[03:03] <Qu4Z> Erm... alt+f2, type jockey-kde?
[03:11] <osanllyer> what's irc for?
[03:14] <osanllyer> wow dead channel

[04:03] <gorgonzola> hello. i want to use knetworkmanager to control a vpn connection, but if i try to install network-manager-openvnc or network-manager-vpnc, apt asks for a bunch of gnome dependencies. is there a kde pacakge for this functionality?
[04:04] <patarokk> has anybody the same issue that i have? GIANT and i mean it.. really G I A N T  system fontsize... when i log into the live system... i dont even wanna install it to the hd till somebody can tell me how i can fix this from the commandline.
[04:05] <patarokk> because the KDE is absolutely unusable!!!
[04:05] <Qu4Z> Erm... I think you can go into system settings and manually set a font dpi?
[04:05] <Qu4Z> At least, I heard someone fixed it in that way. Never had the problem myself, but it's worth a short
[04:05] <Qu4Z> *shot
[04:05] <Qu4Z> Hell, it's worth an int :P
[04:06] <patarokk> how with that giant fonts you are unable to do anything they arent big, they are Giant
[04:06] <patarokk> like an  A takes about 1/3 of the screen.
[04:07] <patarokk> command line i said ... if anybody has any clue how to fix this from COMMANDLINE/TERMINAL please help.

[05:26] <Qu4Z> And keep the konsole window open, or something
[05:26] <carpii> ordinarydot, yeah i agve the wrong name, sorr

[05:26] <pepePlu> typed plasma, command not found
[05:26] <pepePlu> i tried that Qu4Z i am asking what's the command to run plasma
[05:27] <ordinarydot> carpii, why the setting i set in systemsettings not worked

[06:20] <hagabaka> I have kmail close to systray icon and have it in my session. after upgrading to karmic, the kmail icon doesn't show up in systray when I login, although the process starts. I have to kill the process and restart it to get the icon to show
[06:22] <brandon__> k
[06:22] <Tm_T> hagabaka: ouch
[06:23] <hagabaka> nobody else have the problem?
[06:23] <brandon__> second day using kde
[06:23] <brandon__> i tried kde when it was 4.1 i think, was horrid. this is experience is great!
[06:23] <Tm_T> brandon__: and getting better every day (:
[06:23] <hagabaka> I don't think systray is really necessary now, you have all kinds of task lists and applets
[06:24] <brandon__> Tm_T: im really liking it
[06:24] <brandon__> Tm_T: im usually an openbox guy
[06:24] <Tm_T> hagabaka: yeah, border between systray and taskbar and so forth is narrowing
[06:25] <Tm_T> hagabaka: is it possible that the kmail systray icon is only hidden?
[06:25] <Tm_T> hagabaka: doublecheck your systray icon settings in systray AND in kmail
[06:26] <hagabaka> when I click the button to show hidden systray icons, kmail's icon isn't in it, but a tiny window shows up briefly, and I think that's the icon
[06:26] <Tm_T> hmmmm
[06:26] <brandon__> how do i hide systray icons
[06:27] <hagabaka> maybe kmail tried to put the icon in the systray before the systray was fully loaded, so it was "lost"
[06:27] <Tm_T> hagabaka: which kmail version?
[06:28] <hagabaka> brandon__: right click on an empty area in systray, choose settings, Autohide, uncheck the ones you want to hide
[06:28] <hagabaka> Tm_T: 1.12.2
[06:35] <xevious-> So I'm running 9.10... where's g++?
[06:36] <Tm_T> xevious-: umm, how it isn't there?
[06:36] <xevious-> It's just... not there.
[06:36] <rww> xevious-: in the g++ package?
[06:36] <xevious-> Hah.
[06:37] <xevious-> Ok. It's not showing up in aptitude for some reason
[06:37] <rww> xevious-: have you done sudo aptitude update recently?
[06:37] <rfoney> what do what does apptitude do?
[06:37] <xevious-> That's so odd. It shows up in KPackageKit, but not in aptitude
[06:37] <rfoney> rww, are you referencing 422?
[06:37] <xevious-> I didn't just try apt-get install g++ for some reason.
[06:38] <rww> rfoney: what?
[06:38] <rww> rfoney: oh. no, it's my initials.
[06:38] <Tm_T> xevious-: just install build-essential (:

[06:40] <Tm_T> xevious-: heh, clean install or upgrade?
[06:40] <rfoney> upgrade 5578
[06:41] <xevious-> Tm_T: I installed 9.10 alpha-something a couple months back.
[06:41] <xevious-> Tm_T: then upgraded....
[06:41] <Tm_T> xevious-: roger, that shouldn't cause problems, oh well (:
[06:41] <xevious-> This is in a VirtualBox machine on my laptop though.

[08:36] <mty2k> i use xrandr to modyfy my resolution but the change is never permanent, after restart it goes away
[08:37] <jussi01> mty2k: which gfx card?
[08:37] <mty2k> its a default intel card. kubuntu is on my external HDD so its always dynamic
[08:41] <gmathews> hi all i was busy copying about 185 GB of stuff when plasma crashed now i cant see anything in the notification area anymore, but stuff ist still being copied. how can i check the progress of this?
[08:41] <mty2k> but the thing is, on every pc i put it on, the resolution always defaults to 1024x768, VGA. the screens are capable of handling 1280x1024 and i always change it when i log in. Thou i want it to default to 1280x1024!
[08:42] <mty2k> xorg.conf does not exist in my kubuntu 9.10, when i "locate" xorg.conf i get "/usr/share/man/man5/xorg.conf.5.gz" thats it
[08:42] <dusty_> I have a intel card built in to a Toshiba Satellite laptop
[08:42] <r00t_ninja> mty2k ? nvidia car?

[08:43] <eagles0513875> !ohmy | r00t_ninja
[08:43] <mty2k> r00t_ninja: no, not nvidia card. normal vga
[08:44] <r00t_ninja> so you set the resolution in system settings -> Display?
[08:45] <mty2k> no i set it with "randr". system settings -> Display - can only go up to 1024x768. other modes are lower than that
[08:46] <r00t_ninja> ok
[08:50] <r00t_ninja> have you tried krandtray?
[08:52] <dusty_> Did anyone else have a problem with the font size when they try to install kubuntu?
[08:52] <r00t_ninja> no

[10:42] <JediMaster> hey guys, got a few problems, I installed kubuntu-desktop from a fresh 9.10 ubuntu install, and have changed my default DM to kdm, but every now and then I see my gnome desktop flick through, e.g. when first logging in (different wallpaper)
[10:42] <bazhang> JediMaster, please post an image
[10:42] <JediMaster> Secondly, this morning since I started up, I get the intro music from kde, but no other sound, nothing is muted (apart from mic, and when I unmute it I can hear myself, so speakers are working)
[10:42] <bazhang> !imagebin | JediMaster
[10:43] <JediMaster> bazhang, it only flicks through the kde desktop for a few seconds, or only happens on a certain desktop (have 4 setup) and it's not at the moment, but I did see it flick through the wallpaper just now as I logged into kde
[10:43] <bazhang> JediMaster, unless you are referring to the usplash
[10:44] <JediMaster> bazhang, no, it's after I type my password in and the desktop is just loaded
[10:44] <Tm_T> hmm, possibly xorg-wallpaper
[10:44] <JediMaster> the gnome wallpaper pops up for a split second
[10:44] <JediMaster> but, I've had the entire gnome desktop (apart from the kde bar at the bottom) some days
[10:45] <Tm_T> JediMaster: oh? that sounds strange then
[10:45] <JediMaster> yeah, and when I switch desktops it goes back to normal on the other desktops, then back to gnome desktop when I switch back lol
[10:45] <JediMaster> any ideas on the audio problem too?
[10:46] <JediMaster> I have amarok playing music and nothing's coming out of the speakers
[10:46] <hanthana> can i have list of softwares which ships with Kubuntu
[10:46] <Tm_T> JediMaster: please see if you have any gnome-related processes running in background
[10:46] <Tm_T> hanthana: by default, or can be installed?
[10:48] <hanthana> Tm_T: by default
[10:48] <JediMaster> nautilus is running
[10:49] <hanthana> Tm_T: this is to start l10n work for kubuntu
[10:49] <Tm_T> JediMaster: that's the one making trouble
[10:49] <Tm_T> hanthana: for which language?
[10:49] <JediMaster> Tm_T, any ideas why it's running?
[10:49] <hanthana> Tm_T: Sinhala
[10:49] <Tm_T> JediMaster: something funny in ~/.config/autorun/ perhaps ?
[10:49] <JediMaster> it's PID is: "kdeinit4: kdeinit4 Running... "
[10:50] <JediMaster> hmm, only thing in ~/.config/autostart/ is my linux dropbox client
[10:50] <Tm_T> hanthana: hmm, I guess your best bet is start with packages sitting in main
[10:51] <JediMaster> Tm_T, and that's a good point because it opens nautilus when you click the icon...
[10:51] <Tm_T> hehe
[10:52] <JediMaster> ok, killed, but the sound issue is still here (and it's only started today)
[10:56] <hanthana> Tm_T: any references
[10:57] <Tm_T> hanthana: sorry, I don't have any idea, try asking in #ubuntu-loco about translating?
[10:58] <hanthana> Tm_T: thanks
[10:59] <JediMaster> I've tried pulseaudio -k  and I've tried alsa force-reload and neither have fixed the audio =/
[11:02] <JediMaster> after doing the alsa force-reload, kmixer died, so restarted it, and everything is muted and on min volume, put them all back up and unmuted, and still no audio
[11:02] <JediMaster> apart from the mic
[11:07] <OxDeadC0de> JediMaster: do you use kdm or gdm?
[11:08] <JediMaster> OxDeadC0de, kdm
[11:11] <yorirou> hi
[11:12] <yorirou> I installed the new kde (4.3.3) from the kubuntu ppa, but the kate/kwrite does not work. How can I downgrade?
[11:13] <wilsby29> plopsies
[11:14] <wilsby29> well, the first thing you need to do is remove the repo from your sources list
[11:14]  * JediMaster screams at the silence from his machine =(
[11:14] <wilsby29> for kubuntu ppa
[11:14] <wilsby29> and then you need to re-install kde
[11:14] <OxDeadC0de> JediMaster: Sorry I can't be more help but maybe this tidbit might help some with the nautilus problem.. afaik xorg can launch programs from 5+ places when starting up - /etc/xdg/autostart, ~/.kde(4{0,1})/Autostart , the kde configuration tool, /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc and ~/.xinitrc
[11:14] <wilsby29> I'm sure someone has written a clever script to remove kde
[11:14] <JediMaster> ah yeah, I have the kubuntu ppa too if that is a likely candidate for screwing over my audio?
[11:15] <wilsby29> won't kde 4.3.3 be released on 9.10 soon
[11:15] <wilsby29> why bother using the repo
[11:15] <yorirou> I removed the ppa, but aptitude full-upgrade does now downgrade
[11:15] <wilsby29> yes, aptitude does not downgrade
[11:15] <wilsby29> it only upgrades
[11:15] <JediMaster> OxDeadC0de, thanks for the help anyhow
[11:15] <wilsby29> you have to manually remove all kde packages
[11:16] <JediMaster> OxDeadC0de, any ideas on the audio issue?
[11:16] <OxDeadC0de> JediMaster: what's all muted, I mean only kde apps that use phonon or even apps that directly use alsa too
[11:17] <JediMaster> in kmixer, all the channels were muted after doing the alsa force-reload
[11:17] <OxDeadC0de> JediMaster: and can you find useful errors in /var/log/messages, dmesg, or anywhere else?
[11:17] <JediMaster> and the pulseaudio -k didn't do it either
[11:17] <JediMaster> let me check
[11:18] <wilsby29> Are there any ubuntu package managers that can downgrade?
[11:18] <wilsby29> no reason why there shouldn't be
[11:18] <bazhang> wilsby29, no
[11:18] <wilsby29> well, someone needs to write one ;-)
[11:19] <OxDeadC0de> go for it wilsby29
[11:19] <bazhang> !info backintime-common
[11:19] <wilsby29> it should be too hard,.... check installed packages.... check packages available in repos... over list of packages to downgrade
[11:19] <wilsby29> it shouldn't be too hard
[11:19] <bazhang> take a snapshot ^^
[11:19] <OxDeadC0de> there are a lot of programmers out there, I'm sure if it were as trivial as you think it is it would have been done
[11:19] <wilsby29> well, it is trivial
[11:19] <wilsby29> in the same way you can check for a later package
[11:20] <OxDeadC0de> the idea of a jet engine is trivial too, implimentation is not
[11:20] <wilsby29> it's just not 'in-demand'
[11:20] <JediMaster> wilsby29, it's not trivial, each package has an upgrade script, they have no downgrade scripts, so configuration file changes would likely screw things up in many cases
[11:20] <wilsby29> and it only really helps for large projects like kde
[11:21] <NtTrain> anyone have prob with mobile broadband>
[11:21] <JediMaster> just a plain uninstall and reinstall would be more likely to work
[11:21] <JediMaster> of an older version that is
[11:21] <wilsby29> JediMaster, that's what It would do
[11:21] <JediMaster> NtTrain, yeah, it stinks, don't get a decent 3G signal here, so not worth it
[11:22] <NtTrain> i got no prob  with the signal
[11:22] <NtTrain> but 9.10 just doesnt wanna detect
[11:22] <NtTrain> sad
[11:22] <JediMaster> well you asked if I had a problem with it =()
[11:22] <JediMaster> =) even
[11:23] <JediMaster> hmm, what sound system does the kde start up sound use?
[11:23] <OxDeadC0de> probably alsa since it starts before pulseaudio for me
[11:23] <OxDeadC0de> but kde's sound system is phonon so idk
[11:26] <JediMaster> OxDeadC0de, should I see phonon  running in ps?
[11:26] <OxDeadC0de> no
[11:28] <OxDeadC0de> JediMaster: in kmenu/system settings/multimedia/audio output/music , are things listed in the correct order?
[11:29] <JediMaster> I have "playback/recording through pulseuadio sound server" first, then "HDA Nvidia (AD198x Analog)" then "PulseAudio"
[11:30] <JediMaster> hmm, testing either of the pulseaudio ones doesn't produce any sound
[11:30] <JediMaster> however, the HDA Nvidia does
[11:30] <OxDeadC0de> didn't you kill pulseaudio?
[11:31] <padi999> kubuntu 9.10: WHO in here could start vpn using the network-manager(management) GUI?
[11:31] <JediMaster> yeah, but apparently the daemon is alreadying running
[11:31] <JediMaster> I've changed the preferred one to the nvidia HDA, but still nothing even when I restart the audio apps
[11:32] <robin0800> JediMaster: don;t know but pulse audio sound server is not installed in kde only gnome
[11:32] <r00t_ninja> pulse audio came with my kde install...
[11:33] <robin0800> r00t_ninja: yes but not the sound server
[11:33] <r00t_ninja> ok
[11:34] <r00t_ninja> padu999: know of a free vpn and ill try
[11:34] <robin0800> r00t_ninja: gnome network manager does vpn
[11:35] <r00t_ninja> ?
[11:35] <padi999> robin0800: r00t_ninja: gnome nm seems to handle it well, but kde does not.
[11:37] <OxDeadC0de> JediMaster: in a terminal, killall pulseaudio -9; pulseaudio &         then retry the test in the config tool
[11:37] <JediMaster> kk
[11:38] <zeropath> Jedimaster, you can solve your problem probably by opening a Konsole, Typing Alsamixer and setting the volume parameters (type M to unmute)
[11:39] <zeropath> Jedimaster -> use your arrow keys to pump up the volume.
[11:40] <JediMaster> zeropath, weird,  you're right, they're all muted there, but not in kmixer
[11:41] <zeropath> Jedimaster, I had this problem a while back. Unmute them, use the arrow keys to pump up the volume and you should have sound. :-)
[11:43] <jadoo> hi, i have an internet connection which requires a login/password to be effective (for the ISP) and it is a wired connection (ethernet); i know how to configure it on windows but how can i configure it on kubuntu/kde4.3?
[11:44] <JediMaster> zeropath, thanks very much, that sorted the audio, wonder why they all reset?
[11:46] <zeropath> Jedimaster I arrived here in the middle of the discussion, so I don't know where your story begins. I know that if you start from e.g. Ubuntu Minimal or Ubuntu Server this is likely to happen.
[11:48] <JediMaster> zeropath, come from ubuntu 9.10 fresh install and installed kubuntu-desktop
[11:48] <JediMaster> zeropath, but it's only happened this morning, and I did the install the day of release and the audio's been good until this morning
[11:49] <zeropath> Jedimaster, I'll have to add this to the list as inconsistent behaviour. Wouldn't call it a bug, yet.

[12:11] <homer-80> I cannot hear the sound on skype
[12:11] <homer-80> how can I fix
[12:18] <wilsby29> skype has a sound testing utility
[12:18] <wilsby29> when you say you can't hear sound do you mean you can't record sound or you can't hear sound
[12:19] <wilsby29> are you sure your headphones are plugged into the correct socket
[12:19] <wilsby29> have you enabled headphones in your sound mixer
[12:20] <wilsby29> click on you speaker icon in the system tray
[12:20] <wilsby29> click on mixer
[12:21] <wilsby29> make sure your volume levels are all up
[12:21] <wilsby29> make sure you have not muted anything

[12:23] <dcorbin_wrk> When I attempt to use jockey to configure my NVIDIA driver, it says it my xorg.conf is invalid (yet my X is running, and reasonably well).  Any ideas how to get jockey "straight"?
[12:26] <thrz> hello, anyone knows how to get wireless broadband working in 9.10?
[12:34] <wilsby29> jockey didn't work for me
[12:35] <wilsby29> The proprietary ati is available but nothing happens when I click on enable
[12:35] <wilsby29> too many bugs in 9.10 imo
[12:35] <dcorbin_wrk> Me either.  I've ususally done manual downloads  and installs, but I'm the nvidia installer keeps failing because I don't have a properly configured linux source (apparently)
[12:36] <dcorbin_wrk> My says that 185 is disabled, but "in use".
[12:36] <wilsby29> I ended up doing a manual download of the latest catalyst driver
[12:36] <wilsby29> and ran aticonfig --initial
[12:36] <wilsby29> it may be that you are using the open source driver
[12:36] <dcorbin_wrk> I'm not.
[12:36] <wilsby29> odd
[12:37] <dcorbin_wrk> Do you know what packages I need to build the NVIDIA driver?
[12:37] <wilsby29> dcorbin_wrk, the fact that you have a similiar problem suggests that jockey is just BROKEN
[12:37] <wilsby29> you only need one package
[12:37] <wilsby29> the NVIDIA......sh download
[12:37] <noaXess> in my kmenu/kicker i have a lot of links to apps with the symbol ?... i can't find dem over kmenu edit... any idea to fix that?

[12:38] <wilsby29> download it and run it like 'sh NVIDIA.....'
[12:38] <dcorbin_wrk> wilsby29: I have that, but it fails with an error saying If you ave 2.4 kernel do this if you have a 2.6 kernel, "please make sure
[12:38] <dcorbin_wrk>        you have configured kernel sources matching your kernel
[12:38] <dcorbin_wrk>        installed on your system. "
[12:39] <wilsby29> are you using a custom kernel?
[12:39] <wilsby29> or the default stock kernel
[12:39] <dcorbin_wrk> No.
[12:39] <dcorbin_wrk> yes
[12:39] <wilsby29> ok, maybe you havn't installed the kernel-headers package
[12:39] <dcorbin_wrk> :q
[12:40] <wilsby29> should be called linux-headers-generic
[12:40] <dcorbin_wrk> Maybe "linux-headers-generic"? I have that
[12:40] <wilsby29> it just pulls in the current linux-headers package
[12:41] <wilsby29> yes, that's it
[12:41] <wilsby29> is it installed?
[12:42] <wilsby29> make sure you install the correct one that matches your linux-image
[12:42] <wilsby29> ie, carefull not to install a different version or the server version, etc...
[12:43] <dcorbin_wrk> linux-headers-generic is already the newest version.
[12:43] <wilsby29> well. that's very odd
[12:43] <wilsby29> so talk me though how you are installing the NVIDIA..DOTsh  download
[12:43] <dcorbin_wrk> Well, the error talks about having "configured kernel sources"
[12:43] <wilsby29> what do you run from the command line
[12:43] <wilsby29> ow wait
[12:44] <wilsby29> there is a sources package too lol
[12:44] <dcorbin_wrk> yes, and I installed, that, but it's not configured
[12:44] <wilsby29> I don't get it
[12:44] <wilsby29> I think you got the wrong one
[12:44] <wilsby29> can't be the correct one to your running kernel
[12:45] <wilsby29> type uname -r
[12:45] <wilsby29> in a command prompt
[12:47] <EagleScreen> sudo aptitude install linux-headers-$(uname -r)
[12:47] <dcorbin_wrk> 2.6.31-14-generic
[12:48] <dcorbin_wrk> EagleScreen: That installed nothing
[12:48] <EagleScreen> sudo aptitude install linux-headers-`uname -r` << should do the same
[12:48] <EagleScreen> pastebin the command line output please
[12:49] <dcorbin_wrk> EagleScreen: http://pastebin.ca/1666392
[12:49] <dcorbin_wrk> (because I've already hand installed it.  It just doesn't fix the problem)
[12:50] <EagleScreen> what is your initial problem?
[12:51] <Kelly_> hi folks
[12:51] <dcorbin_wrk> EagleScreen: I'm unable to build the NVIDIA driver.  Here's the end of the log file: http://pastebin.ca/1666398
[12:51] <Kelly_> I am running Kubuntu Netbook Remix and I have a question about the kickerbar
[12:52] <EagleScreen> dcorbin_wrk: using 9.10 karmic koala?
[12:52] <Kelly_> It is stuck at the top and I cant move it... am I missing something
[12:52] <Kelly_> yes 9.10
[12:52] <dcorbin_wrk> EagleScreen: yes.  Just upgraded yesterday.
[12:53] <EagleScreen> dcorbin_wrk: install package "build-essential"
[12:53] <EagleScreen> and updated the system
[12:53] <dcorbin_wrk> EagleScreen: karmic is working, but it did not fix the other problem I had which I think is video driver related, so I wanted to try an older one.
[12:53] <EagleScreen> sudo aptitude full-upgrade
[12:54] <mty2k> Just installed supertux-stable on Kubuntu 9.10 AND on launch says segmentation fault?? any ideas
[12:55] <EagleScreen> any program should segfault, get a backtrace and report it to author
[12:57] <dcorbin_wrk> EagleScreen: full-upgrade is making a few changes - not sure why update-manager didn't do it all.  I'll try again when it's done.
[12:57] <Kelly_> so any idea on the kicker panel?
[12:59] <ilembitov> Hi, all. I've got a question: what kind of packages go to kubuntu-ppa? I know that usually updates for KDE and Amarok go there, but what about, for instance, Koffice or Ktorrent or K3B or digiKam?
[13:01] <tsimpson> ilembitov: mostly just the main KDE stuff, but if a major release of a KDE package comes out (and it's relatively stable), it may go into one of the PPAs
[13:01] <ilembitov> tsimpison: One of the PPAs? What are the others?
[13:05] <dcorbin_work> EagleScreen: exact same error.
[13:05] <tsimpson> ilembitov: kubuntu-ppa is a group of PPAs, https://launchpad.net/~kubuntu-ppa#ppas
[13:07] <ilembitov> tsimpson: I don't get it. Are any of these official? Like, what's the difference between backports-ppa and regular backports repo?
[13:08] <tsimpson> ilembitov: they are official in the sense that only the Kubuntu developers can upload to those repositories. PPAs are usually quicker than using the main backports repository and require less work to upload to
[13:49] <kunnu531> Hi, Could you please give me some suggestions. my root partition is / shows as 100% . After running apt-get clean and autoclean it came to 98%
[13:49] <kunnu531> Any ideas what more steps can be done ?
[14:06] <BluesKaj> Hiyas all
[14:10] <Wyall> Is it "good" to update kubuntu to kde 4.3.3? or isnt it really stable?
[14:11] <BluesKaj> Wyall, I'm using it and I haven't had any problems so far
[14:11] <Wyall> Can I remove the backport PPA after the update or do I have to keep it open?
[14:12] <Wyall> Dont want to have KDE 4.4 on my pc suddenly :)
[14:14] <BluesKaj> !kde 4.3.3
[14:15] <genii> !kde4
[14:15] <genii> BluesKaj: 2nd link :)
[14:15] <genii> Hm, that factoid needs updating
[14:20] <BluesKaj> Wyall, i guess removing the ppa is ok since kde4.3.3 is no longer in it's testing phase
[14:45] <cjae> Hi, I have the tragedy black theme in kde 4.3 karmic and when I open certain websites like xmradio and try to login to listen at home, I sometimes cannot see the test I am inputing, It still works, but I cannot tell if I have made a spelling mistake
[14:46] <cjae> It does this in gnome apps too
[14:47] <cjae> I believe it is under system settings appearance  and colors I have to change something but I been experimenting and cannot seem to find it
[14:48] <yofel> cjae: maybe the website has black font color hardcoded in the page source? I have similar issues with oxygen-obsidian_coast too
[14:48] <yofel> I have to edit the page css with firebug to see what I'm inputting...
[14:49] <Infinitas> Used to have the same problem.
[14:49] <cjae> yofel: what do you use as workaround
[14:49] <cjae> oh
[14:49] <yofel> cjae: I just told you my workaround, not really happy with it though :(
[14:49] <cjae> sorry just woke up reaction time is a little off lol
[14:50] <yofel> hehe
[14:50] <cjae> you can also highlight it to see it
[14:52] <cjae> does anyone know what the thing is called I am looking for just to see if that is the case
[14:53] <cjae> because the whole text box is black and if the text is hardcoded black then making the text box white should fix it no?
[14:53] <Roey> hello
[14:53] <Roey> HEY EVERYBODY so glad you're hear, it's Roey with the flow back in your ear.
[14:53] <Roey> *here
[14:53] <Roey> damn it.
[14:54] <yofel> cjae: well, you could set the background color in the color settings to white or something, but that will apply to the whole theme
[14:54] <Roey> Anyway... I've got this issue with digital coax out not producing a signal.  I can hear music from my headphones but not the spdif coax output.   I know it's not producing a signal because my bass unit's light's not indicating as such.  I looked at 'alsamixer' and everything seems normal... what else should I check?
[15:11] <Kovert> !bugtrak
[15:11] <Kovert> !bugtrack
[15:11] <Kovert> grrrrrrr
[15:12] <Kovert> Q. How do I enter a bug from Karmic
[15:17] <sohail_> hi, I need some help, I think I may have perma screwed my comp
[15:19] <shadeslayer> sohail_: just go ahead,theres nothing that cant be undone
[15:19] <shadeslayer> (except for sudo rm -rf / , youre screwed then :P)
[15:21] <shadeslayer> sohail_: would you mind telling us the problem?
[15:21] <sohail_> yeah I'm sorry
[15:21] <sohail_> It's still early for me
[15:23] <Kovert> Q. How do I enter a bug from Karmic
[15:23] <Kovert> to bug trak
[15:24] <sohail_> Alright, I installed kubuntu because windows was running like complete trash. I popped the disc in and ran the installer, partitioned about 17gb to linux and about an hour later I ran it. I was happy and it was running smooooth, and I came on to this IRC to get some real real newb info on how to do certain things, and then the whole system started slowing down, to the point where I couldn't see the text I was typing in the box and mouse movements we
[15:24] <sohail_>  really jumpy.
[15:24] <sohail_> So, assuming that doesn't happen again, I still have the problem of not being able to boot up to windows
[15:24] <shadeslayer> Kovert: ubuntu-bug <app_name>
[15:25] <Kovert> shadeslayer: thanks
[15:25] <shadeslayer> sohail_: did you install any packages ( softwares ) ?
[15:25] <sohail_> In the dual boot menu I selected windows, it started sort of normal and then black screen for 15+ minutes and then Kubuntu started
[15:26] <sohail_> I don't know what you mean, I installed firefox and some plugins for firefox but thats it
[15:27] <sohail_> its running fine right now
[15:27] <sohail_> I just restarted and it's clear and quick
[15:29] <shadeslayer> sohail_: ok,well i think that might have been a one time problem since the system loads the defaults after the first boot which might make it a wee bit slow
[15:30] <sohail_> shadeslayer: thanks, that's good because I really do like kubuntu so far, but I can't guess why I wouldn't be able to load windows normally
[15:32] <shadeslayer> sohail_: ok,so does the option of windows show in grub?
[15:33] <sohail_> yes it does, it shows one of the backscreens I normally see during a boot up and then it goes black. I took a shower after 15 mins f waiting and came back and Kubuntu was loaded
[15:33] <sohail_> how do I direct a message to you btw like you do to me?
[15:34] <shadeslayer> sohail_: no pm's please,first of all :)
[15:36] <shadeslayer> sohail_: since this is grub 2 i cant tell exacrtly what the problem might be
[15:36] <shadeslayer> !grub2 | sohail_
[15:36] <sohail_> alright thanks ill look into it
[15:37] <sohail_> now... for some of the little things while I have your attention... One of my main reasons for getting linux was to use it in conjunction with Wine, how would I go about that?
[15:38] <shadeslayer> sohail_: well i wouldnt actually promote the use of wine
[15:38] <shadeslayer> sohail_: there are free alternatives available,wine should be the last option imo
[15:39] <sohail_> awesome where do I start looking?
[15:39] <shadeslayer> sohail_: asking here or googling is the first step
[15:40] <shadeslayer> sohail_: also you might want to know,software isnt installed in kubuntu as it is done in windows :)
[15:41] <shadeslayer> !repo | sohail_
[15:41] <shadeslayer> sohail_: and you might wanna install flash and java and stuff,so for that
[15:41] <shadeslayer> !kubuntu-restricted-extras | sohail_
[15:41] <sohail_> I've kind of gathered that... but I thought wine was free?
[15:42] <shadeslayer> sohail_: yeah it is,just search for wine in kpackagekit
[15:42] <shadeslayer> !wine | sohail_
[15:43] <shadeslayer> sohail_: you might wanna do : sudo apt-get install wine : in a terminal for the easiest way to get wine :)
[15:44] <sohail_> alright, the guide I was reading suggested looking up some info about my video card and told me to input a command. So I rClicked on the descktop and went to run command, copy pasted it and pressed enter and nothing happened. Do I need to pull up a terminal and if I do how do I do that?
[15:44] <sohail_> glxinfo | grep rendering was the command I was told to input
[15:44] <shadeslayer> sohail_: yeah,open a konsole and input it there
[15:45] <sohail_> how do I open a consol? XD
[15:45] <shadeslayer> sohail_: in KDE : press alt+f2 > type " konsole " > Enter
[15:46] <shadeslayer> sohail_: what card btw?
[15:46] <sohail_> it's more of a graphics "handler" really, Intel Express 965GM Chipset Family
[15:47] <shadeslayer> sohail_: um it should work by default
[15:47] <sohail_> from what I gather it's like onboard. I want to know how to configure it tho, I don't think it's pulling enough memory to work well
[15:47] <shadeslayer> sohail_: all intel IGP's are supported by default,i think
[15:48] <shadeslayer> sohail_: hahah....
[15:48] <kane> Question one of you lads might be able to answer, how do I just run the quassel core?
[15:48] <shadeslayer> kane: try #quassel if no one answers :)
[15:48] <sohail_> ah, did I say something funny?
[15:49] <kane> Will do :)
[15:49] <shadeslayer> sohail_:  I don't think it's pulling enough memory to work well
[15:49] <shadeslayer> sohail_: seemed funny to me :D
[15:50] <shadeslayer> its really up to the IGP,what memory it allocates and stuff
[15:50] <shadeslayer> brb
[15:51] <sohail_> yeah I haven't been able to configure it at all and graphics processing is dismal, I can only guess it's not uh, "allocating"
[15:51] <mime> hello everyone and thank you for attending me. I had installed bryce 6.1, doesn't open after thinking 15 sec. any libraries required? thank you so much
[15:52] <jhutchins_lt> mime: How did you install it?
[15:52] <jhutchins_lt> !v brice
[15:52] <mime> trogh wine, just clicked the exe, with vue it worked
[15:52] <jhutchins_lt> mime: If it's not a linux program we're not going to be able to help you with it.
[15:52] <Idhan> does open office go-oo 3D transitions??
[15:52] <jhutchins_lt> mime: Run it from console and see what the error messages are.
[15:53] <mime> thnx
[15:53] <shadeslayer> mime: also try #winehq
[15:53] <mime> ok
[15:53] <mime> i think that is a problem of 2008 runtime c++
[15:53] <mime> or something like that
[15:55] <sohail_> alright, so the guide I'm reading briefly describes something called "Crossover" which would allow me to play the game without having to reinstall it in the linux partition, is this a viable idea?
[15:55] <jhutchins_lt> mime: I'm not sure how the capabilities compare, but you might want to look at native solutions like blender.
[15:56] <mime> yes, but i dont know if figures and objects works with the same extensions
[15:56] <jhutchins_lt> mime: bryce looks like it might be too much to expect it to run in wine, you would need a virtual machine running windows.
[15:56] <jhutchins_lt> mime: No, they wouldn't be the same.
[15:56] <mime> :(((((
[15:56] <mime> no problem
[15:56] <mime> ill try blender
[15:56] <varanus> anyone know how to resotre okular annotations? i have did a clean install of karmic but previously i have saved all the ~/home directory
[15:56] <mime> thank you all
[15:57] <jhutchins_lt> mime: The whole point of linux is to find new ways to do things, not to carry over expectations from windows.
[15:57] <mime> yes, totally agree
[15:57] <mime> thank you
[15:58] <homer-80> hi i'm in troble with microphone if I start sound recorder it says that I have to correct the sound preferences
[15:59] <mime> but first ill use winetricks... lets see
[15:59] <mime> cya
[15:59] <homer-80> I have to install the alsa driver?
[15:59] <homer-80> I haave alsa mix and the mic is on
[15:59] <varanus> homer-80: as far as i know kde uses alsa and not pulse audio
[16:00] <EagleScreen> dcorbin_work: hi, what happened with your nvidia driver?
[16:00] <homer-80> varanus: so what I have to do?
[16:01] <varanus> homer-80: have you checked the systemsettings>multimedia to see what are you using atm?
[16:01] <homer-80> atm? what's that varanus
[16:01] <varanus> at the moment, sorry
[16:02] <homer-80> are you talking about audio capture? I'm using HDA intel
[16:02] <varanus> try chekcing what priority you have in the multimedia, and jast in case make a reset in there
[16:02] <homer-80> I have gstreamer and xine
[16:02] <homer-80> gstreamer priority
[16:03] <homer-80> varanus: ?
[16:04] <homer-80> varanus: I have alsamixer
[16:04] <varanus> homer-80: i have HDA Intel too and it works just fine. have you tried to reset the preferences in the Multimedia tab?
[16:04] <homer-80> how?
[16:04] <homer-80> click on default?
[16:05] <varanus> homer-80: in the bottom left there is a Defaults as you said and a reset, maybe try both
[16:05] <homer-80> I can click just on default
[16:05] <homer-80> but then I cannot click on apply
[16:06] <varanus> homer-80: try returning to defaults, just to start from the simpliest
[16:06] <varanus> homer-80: try restarting
[16:06] <homer-80> restart the audio or the system?
[16:07] <homer-80> it doens't work
[16:07] <homer-80> I don't know :(
[16:07] <homer-80> varanus: ?!?!
[16:08] <varanus> the system i would say. i'm not an expert but i've managed to get it work by this simple steps. by changing priority of the output/input device and some times that i couldn't click on apply, by restarting i could.
[16:08] <homer-80> ok I will try to restart
[16:09] <jimbrass> hello, Does anyone talk spanish??
[16:09] <shadeslayer> espanol?

[16:09] <jimbrass> thanks.
[16:32] <shadeslayer> hi,im trying to compile amarok from git,i would like some help
[16:32] <lorecaster> anyone here helpful with NFS or know where to guide me? I had two shares working flawlessly, then when i had to hard-restart my server, one of my shares won't work, try as i may.
[16:32] <shadeslayer> http://pastebin.ca/1666661
[16:38] <mime> ok m8 im downloading blender, bryce 6.1 dont work, thnx
[16:38] <mime> bye
[16:48] <lorecaster> Anyone here willing to help me with NFS? I rebooted my server and now half my shares won't work, try as i may
[16:56] <petsounds> good evening.. i have problem during the boot process.. after the grub options ubuntu won't start the usplash but only have _ blinking. how can i fix this? thanks
[17:01] <trancex> after every restart my panel change direction , right to left or left to right . what to do ? Thanks!
[17:08] <trancex> after every restart my panel change direction , right to left or left to right . what to do ? Thanks!
[17:09] <zorael> Does samba work in Dolphin for anyone with current Karmic packages? I get "Unable to create io-slave: klauncher said: Error loading 'kio-smb'."
[17:10] <zorael> Konqueror gives a more verbose error message
[17:11] <trancex> after every restart my panel change direction , right to left or left to right . what to do ? Thanks!
[17:13] <SiVA_> I'm trying to install Karmic. I select English, and choose Install and it shows progress bar for awhile,
[17:13] <SiVA_> then it just dumps me to the console
[17:13] <SiVA_> Then I did a Check Disk for Errors, and after awhile it said "errors found in 1 file"
[17:15] <zorael> SiVA_: I'd recommend you use a torrent file (and app) to verify and fix any errors in your downloaded image
[17:15] <SiVA_> zorael: the md5 checksum passed in the ISO I downloaded
[17:16] <zorael> SiVA_: Medium failure? Did you burn it to a CD or copied to a USB stick?
[17:16] <SiVA_> burn to cd
[17:17] <zorael> SiVA_: I imagine something went wrong in the burning process. If your machine supports booting from usb and if you have a usb stick available I'd recommend you use unetbootin to extract the iso to it. Otherwise, reburn at slower speeds and hope it works this time around :3
[17:18] <SiVA_> strange thing was it worked when used as a livecd
[17:18] <zorael> SiVA_: perhaps the live environment wasn't trying to access whatever was broken, impossible to say
[17:19] <SiVA_> ok I'll try thanks
[17:21] <trancex> after every restart my panel change direction , right to left or left to right . what to do ? Thanks!
[17:22] <SiVA_> btw: When I reinstall karmic I don't have to format my home partition right? I have my home on a separate partition, and I just want to use it, so I don't have to back it up
[17:23] <varanus> i'm trying to restore annotations in okular from the backup i did from (~/.kde/share/apps/okulra/docdate) but it restore only the note and not lines etc. anyone knows y?
[17:31] <laykoff> Вопрос в следующем говорят ли тут по русски
[17:32] <shadeslayer> !ru | laykoff
[17:35] <zorael> SiVA_: Once at the parititioner you can specify that your home partition is to be mounted at /home
[17:35] <laykoff> tthanks
[17:35] <zorael> SiVA_: formatting it explicitly needs you to check the little format checkbox
[17:35] <trancex> after every restart my panel change direction , right to left or left to right . what to do ? Thanks!
[17:36] <shadeslayer> trancex: tried locking it?
[17:36] <trancex> shadlyer : yes
[18:00] <TWD> Hey I'm trying to update to newest version but I think my sources list is all screwed up?  Is there an easy way to reset it and add the kubntu sources?
[18:07] <jhutchins_lt> TWD: Have a look in /etc/apt
[18:08] <rafa_> hi - have problem. when i click on place in menu bar its opening i gedit , not nautilus. wtf ??
[18:08] <ghostcube> rafa_: wrong channel eh ?
[18:08] <ghostcube> :D
[18:08] <rafa_> ok :D
[18:08] <ghostcube> hehe #ubuntu
[18:09] <rafa_> ok , bye
[18:12] <TWD> hrm I see a sources.list.save but I'm not sure that one is right either.  Here is my current sources.list is it correct? http://paste.ubuntu.com/316162/
[18:13] <ghostcube> TWD: /etc/apt/sources.list
[18:13] <ghostcube> this should be in this folder
[18:13] <trancex> after every restart my panel change direction , right to left or left to right . what to do ? Thanks!
[18:14] <ghostcube> trancex: clean install or update ?
[18:14] <TWD> ? yeah what I just posted is the contents of /etc/apt/sources.list
[18:14] <ghostcube> ah ok :)
[18:14] <ghostcube> btw TWD whats the prob i came in later
[18:14] <ghostcube> :)
[18:15] <trancex> ghostcube : clean install
[18:15] <ghostcube> 9.10 ?
[18:15] <trancex> yes
[18:15] <TWD> Well I am trying to update to the latest version 9.10 but when I try it fails.
[18:15] <trancex> maybe because my language ?
[18:15] <ghostcube> you can try to update to kde 4.3.3
[18:15] <Guest74425> hey how do i connect 2 wifi?
[18:15] <trancex> in the default my default need to be right to left
[18:15] <trancex> i have 4.3.3
[18:15] <TWD> I can't recall the exact error but when I looked it up everyone said check your sources.list
[18:15] <ghostcube> Guest34174: best way is installing wicd i think so but maybe anyone can halp you with knetworkmanager
[18:15] <TWD> and then after that error it continues for a bit and the randomly exits.
[18:16] <Guest74425> im totaly new 2 linu
[18:16] <ghostcube> damn Guest74425
[18:16] <yofel> TWD: check the second line from the bottom, you can't have deb and deb-src on the same line
[18:16] <ghostcube> the post was for you
[18:17] <ghostcube> yofel: pluscookie
[18:17] <ghostcube> :)
[18:17] <TWD> Do I even need those lines though?
[18:18] <TWD> Meh I think that this needs to be uncommented  deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-ppa/ppa/ubuntu karmic main
[18:19] <yofel> TWD: on upgrades ppa's are usually commented, but I don't think you need those 2 lines at the bottom, try to comment them out and see if 'sudo apt-get update' still gives errors
[18:19] <ghostcube> TWD: yeah would bring in kde 4.3.3  if you uncomment it
[18:20] <trancex> after every restart my panel change direction , right to left or left to right . what to do ? Thanks!
[18:20] <lorecaster> NFS? Anyone?
[18:20] <ghostcube> trancex: you tried to update to 4.3.3 ?
[18:20] <ghostcube> this wont kill anything
[18:20] <trancex> yes i told you yes
[18:20] <ghostcube> oh sorry
[18:20] <ghostcube> :)
[18:21] <TWD> trancex yeah but will that give me kubuntu 8.10 as well?
[18:21] <trancex> maybe because my language is right to left ?
[18:21] <trancex> i tired add a new panel and the same problem
[18:21] <ghostcube> trancex: hmm could be i cant really tell you
[18:21] <ghostcube> havent got this prob so far here
[18:22] <TWD> When I try to do sudo apt-get upgrade it lists a lot of packages that it says: "The following packages have been kept back:"
[18:22] <TWD> what does that mean?
[18:22] <ghostcube> there are in dist-upgrade
[18:23] <ghostcube> what means it will bring in packages not included in released version of karmic
[18:23] <Tm_T> umm, no
[18:23] <TWD> Meh now when I do dist-upgrade it wants to remove all sorts of important packages like dolphin.
[18:23] <Tm_T> ghostcube: that's not how it goes (:
[18:23] <ghostcube> Tm_T: yeah i know but i thought its easier to explain :D
[18:23] <Tm_T> it's not (:
[18:23] <ghostcube> :O
[18:24] <ghostcube> ok tell me the right way heh
[18:24] <ghostcube> :)
[18:24] <Tm_T> TWD: apt-get upgrade only upgrades already installed packages, and their dependencies if new ones is needed
[18:24] <Tm_T> TWD: dist-upgrade also can remove packages if there's conflicts, thus is more dangerous
[18:25] <TWD> Meh yeah but don't I need dist-upgrade to get 8.10?
[18:26] <ghostcube> you mean 9.10 or ?
[18:26] <TWD> yeah 9.10 latest kubuntu release
[18:26] <ghostcube> :)
[18:26] <TWD> if it's trying to remove all that stuff when I do dist upgrade then does that mean my sources.list is still messed up
[18:26] <ghostcube> no dist upgrade doesnt pull any other packages than the ones listed in sources.list for the release you run
[18:27] <ghostcube> so jaunty if 9.04
[18:27] <ghostcube> or karmic if 9.10
[18:27] <TWD> hrm so what do I gotta do to make dist-upgrade work correctly then?
[18:27] <ghostcube> TWD: you updated to karmic already or ?
[18:28] <TWD> hrm I should be on an older beta version
[18:28] <TWD> but it says that i'm 9.04
[18:28] <ghostcube> ok best way is sudo do-release-upgrade
[18:28] <ghostcube> in my opinion
[18:28] <ghostcube> dont know if other ones here say no
[18:29] <yofel> it is the easiest way
[18:30] <TWD> that seems a little bit better.
[18:39] <Flootenkerp> Hello, I really need help, there's a major issue. I can't boot vista anymore, and I think it had something to do with ubuntu being on the same hard drive.
[18:39] <Flootenkerp> Does anyone know the issue?
[18:43] <befree> Hi menn! ;)
[18:48] <dylan_> How do i find the exact model of my graphics card
[18:48] <dylan_> ?
[18:48] <Flootenkerp> I have a major issue. I can't boot vista anymore, and I think it had something to do with ubuntu being on the same hard drive.
[18:48] <Flootenkerp> Does anyone know the issue?
[18:48] <dylan_> vista just sucking balls might be the issue
[18:49] <Flootenkerp> True, but I need it
[18:49] <ghostcube> Flootenkerp: have you installed karmic new
[18:49] <Flootenkerp> No
[18:49] <ghostcube> update

[18:49] <Flootenkerp> How?
[18:49] <Flootenkerp> I'm new at ubuntu, sorry
[18:50] <ghostcube> nope i meant have you updated youre system to karmic
[18:50] <Flootenkerp> I don't think so
[18:50] <Flootenkerp> I'm on ubuntu 9.04
[18:50] <ghostcube> ok
[18:53] <ghostcube> Flootenkerp: pls pastebin youre /grub/menu.lst to www.pastie.org
[18:53] <ghostcube> Flootenkerp: how did you resize the vista partition
[18:53] <Flootenkerp> it's just to either load vista or ubuntu
[18:53] <Flootenkerp> I don't think I did that
[18:56] <ghostcube> Flootenkerp: can u post the menu.lst to pastie.org
[18:56] <glen_> Hi all, was just wondering if anyone knew of any software I could use to organise and tag a bunch of video clips (in .mov format)? Basically i'm after an 'f-spot for video'. Thanks
[18:56] <Flootenkerp> Um, sure, what's the terminal code to open it again?
[18:57] <ghostcube> i think kate file
[18:57] <Flootenkerp> I made some edits to it a few minutes ago when I got the issue
[18:57] <Flootenkerp> http://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=605747&view=findpost&p=589046959
[18:57] <Flootenkerp> that's what I did
[19:05] <OxDeadC0de> glen_: mysql and some simple php script could do it
[19:05] <Flootenkerp> ghostcube: http://pastebin.com/m2cd062f
[19:05] <trancex> after every restart my panel change direction , right to left or left to right . what to do ? Thanks!
[19:06] <Flootenkerp> There's my menu.1st ghostcube, do you know what could be wrong?
[19:09] <Flootenkerp> Since my messages were drowned out
[19:09] <Flootenkerp> ghostcube: http://pastebin.com/m2cd062f
[19:09] <Flootenkerp> There's my menu.1st ghostcube, do you know what could be wrong?
[19:09] <glen_> thanks OxDeadC0de
[19:12] <ghostcube> Flootenkerp: so you can choose 2 different vista boot from menu
[19:12] <Flootenkerp> I added that code, so now there's two, so yeah
[19:13] <Flootenkerp> what should I do to fix this error?
[19:16] <lovre> i think something is wrong with my GRUB. When i turn my comp on, it just stands there, nothing is counting, nothing is happening.... Then i have to switch my keyboard to PS/2 since it doesnt work on USB, and click Enter, and then switch back, its frustrating... Why doesnt it just countdown end enter kubuntu??
[19:19] <ghostcube> Flootenkerp: and doesnt matter which one it doesnt work any of them ?
[19:25] <Flootenkerp> None of them
[19:25] <Guest38460> does anyone know why when i load ta spring which is a game when i load the maps there is no color and they are just grey?
[19:25] <Flootenkerp> none of them work Ghostcube, I get this blue screen in a split second
[19:25] <Flootenkerp> and then restarts
[19:25] <Flootenkerp> It has text on it, but I can't read it
[19:27] <ghostcube> Flootenkerp: hmmm i cant tell you may wait if anyone else can help i have only linux pure install
[19:27] <Flootenkerp> k. I guess I can wait
[19:30] <kiran> hi
[19:30] <Guest52722> Hi guys I need help in setting up wireless connection
[19:46] <joefg> hello, i have a dell machine with Broadcom Corporation BCM4312 802.11b/g (rev 01) wireless adapter
[19:46] <joefg> i just installed kubuntu 9.10
[19:46] <joefg> and the wifi is not working..any way to fix this ?
[19:48] <snarkster> does anyone know how to use shermans aquarium as a screensaver?
[19:48] <ghostcube> joefg: dont know maybe use wicd i know it works more stable than the kde tool
[19:48] <ghostcube> and on wicd page is a troubleshooting area
[19:48] <ghostcube> you must read this
[19:54] <snarkster> can anyone point me in the right direction for using shermans aquarium as a kde screensaver?
[20:02] <snarkster> any clues as to how to use the gnome app shermans aquarium as a kde screensaver?
[20:02] <FloodBotK1> NOTICE - If you couldn't speak to the channel during the past minutes, please try again now.
[20:02] <snarkster> any clues as to how to use the gnome app shermans aquarium as a kde screensaver?
[20:03] <amichair> what do I do if apt-get install says 'E: Broken packages'?
[20:03] <snarkster> update try again
[20:04] <snarkster> then use aptitude install <whatever packages>
[20:05] <amichair> snarkster: it's all updated, I'm right after a karmic upgrade
[20:08] <snarkster> what are you trying to install?
[20:09] <joefg> hurray !!....wifi works on my machine now...had to install the broadcom drivers from their website http://www.broadcom.com/support/802.11/linux_sta.php :)
[20:11] <amichair> snarkster: I just upgraded to karmic, and mysql broke. I noticed that apt-get says it's broken, and not sure how to fix it now
[20:13] <hackndoes_> Hi everyone... how can i downgrade back to kde 4.3.2? i upgraded using the ppa repos
[20:14] <genii> There is no downgrade route
[20:14] <hackndoes_> genii: oh shit
[20:14] <hackndoes_> it's not stable it is very poor in performance
[20:15] <genii> hackndoes_: I understand, but please try to keep the language family-friendly here
[20:15] <hackndoes_> well no problem though i didn't think Sh*** is such a bad word
[20:16] <hackndoes_> so what can i do?
[20:16] <hackndoes_> i must stay with that? is there no uninstall?
[20:16] <hackndoes_> can't be it would be silly, especially in a customizable system like linux
[20:16] <genii> hackndoes_: The usual option is to reinstall
[20:16] <snarkster> thats not a very good option
[20:17] <snarkster> couldnt you drop to CLI and do somehting like apt-get remove kde*
[20:17] <hackndoes_> snarkster: that is what i am asking
[20:17] <genii> hackndoes_: With a single package you can for instance specify to apt-get which version you want (even a prior one). But when the prior version pulls in also a buch of other prior apps it doesn't work too great
[20:17] <hackndoes_> genii: reinstall what?
[20:17] <snarkster> amichair: my apologies but Im distracted making lunch for my father..
[20:18] <genii> hackndoes_: The OS
[20:18] <hackndoes_> the OS? for a peace of installed software?
[20:18] <amichair> snarkster: it's ok, I'm working on it. apparently update-manager was supposed to upgrade mysql 5.0 to 5.1 but left it broken... I'll try upgrading manually, hope it works
[20:18] <hackndoes_> there has to be a way, maybe a log of what was installed with the upgrade and remove
[20:19] <snarkster> amichair: you can try sudo aptitude install mysql -f
[20:19] <snarkster> i think
[20:19] <snarkster> afk
[20:19] <amichair> snarkster: I did, but it's more broken than usual :-)
[20:20] <amichair> hackndoes_: not sure of the consequences, but maybe u can uninstall kubuntu-desktop package and the reinstall from the regular repos
[20:20] <hackndoes_> well i will stick with 4.3.3 then and wait for them to stabilize it with updates
[20:21] <hackndoes_> too bad i upgraded that, it was stupid of me
[20:21] <amichair> hackndoes_: might as well make the best of it and report issues so they'll get them sorted out quicker :-)
[20:21] <hackndoes_> true
[20:25] <snarkster> amichair: uninstall it
[20:25] <amichair> snarkster: I think the upgrade worked! (installing 5.1 automatically uninstalls 5.0)
[20:26] <snarkster> awesome
[20:26] <snarkster> now does anyone know how to use shermans aquarium as a kde screensaver?
[20:26] <Flootenkerp> Hi, I have an issue. Vista won't boot and this randomly started occuring, and I believe it has to do with ubuntu being on the same hardrive.
[20:27] <Flootenkerp> Could anyone help me with this issue? It's really important that this gets fixed for me.
[20:27] <snarkster> hmm my vista game partition works perfectly
[20:27] <Flootenkerp> Well, idk what's wrong with mine
[20:27] <snarkster> Flootenkerp: have you read up on grub?
[20:27] <Flootenkerp> Not really, but vista is on my grub menu
[20:28] <Flootenkerp> But when I run it, it loads, I get a blue error screen for a split second, then it restards.
[20:28] <snarkster> you can do a search google search on dual boot kubuntu and vista
[20:28] <Flootenkerp> restarts*
[20:28] <Flootenkerp> I use ubuntu 9.04
[20:28] <snarkster> ah sounds more like a vista problem than a grub problem
[20:28] <Pici> !dualboot
[20:29] <snarkster> have yu run a virus scan on your windows partition?
[20:29] <Flootenkerp> I installed ubuntu with an exe file
[20:29] <Flootenkerp> and yeah, norton
[20:29] <snarkster> i meant from linux
[20:29] <Flootenkerp> nope.
[20:29] <snarkster> ok
[20:29] <snarkster> you could try that and see if you picked up a bug
[20:30] <snarkster> norton isnt the best antiviurs out there
[20:30] <snarkster> worth a try. :)
[20:30] <amichair> Flootenkerp: did u install from wubi or livecd?
[20:30] <Flootenkerp> I guess. I don't have the disc to reinstall vista, so I guess I have no other choice.
[20:30] <snarkster> and you might wanna consider backing up your data on the windows partition to a safer location cause you might need to reinstall.
[20:30] <Flootenkerp> wubi
[20:31] <snarkster> doesnt your computer have the restore partition available?
[20:31] <Flootenkerp> Yeah
[20:31] <snarkster> then you can totally rebuild your system, and then reinstall linux.
[20:31] <Flootenkerp> How?
[20:31] <snarkster> I had to do that after I found I needed vista for a school project.
[20:31] <amichair> snarkster: while I don't know how, I'm sure there's a way to fix it without wiping out his system :-)
[20:32] <snarkster> oh sure Im sure there is.. but it isnt a grub problem
[20:32] <Flootenkerp> Actually, I'm completely fine with wiping out my hard drive, I have nothing I absolutely need. I could reinstall it all
[20:32] <snarkster> any whootin I need to go eat..
[20:33] <Flootenkerp> So what would I do to wipe it all out?
[20:33] <Guest31788> hi
[20:34] <Flootenkerp> I just really want to get vista working again, for compatibility issues. I use linux for other things.
[20:37] <ghostcube> Flootenkerp: best is if you have 2 hdd one with linux
[20:37] <ghostcube> one with vista
[20:37] <ghostcube> :)
[20:37] <snarkster> Flootenkerp: you get an external hd to copy all your data from both vista and linux to using the liinux install
[20:38] <lorecaster> Anyone available to lend someone a hand? :P My permissions worked great, followed this tutorial, but after a reboot, i lost my storage drive share. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNFSHowTo Try as i may, i cannot find out how to recover it.
[20:39] <snarkster> lorecaster: shares for nfs are completely done on the server.
[20:39] <snarkster> make sure you client ip address is in the host file
[20:39] <lorecaster> snarkster: that's the thing, my desktop share works fine, my storage share won't work at all.
[20:40] <snarkster> storage share on a different machine?
[20:40] <lorecaster> snarkster: i'm sharing out my main computer (call it the server) desktop, and a storage partition. same box... want to share it to my DELL computer... DELL sees the desktop, can access it fine... but storage gives server timeout errors
[20:40] <snarkster> if i were home, id show you my exports file
[20:41] <snarkster> exportfs -ra
[20:41] <lorecaster> on the 'server'? the source of the shares?
[20:41] <Flootenkerp> could anyone link me to the wubi installer 9.04? I'll try uninstalling from linux itself
[20:41] <Flootenkerp> Hopefully that'll help... at all
[20:41] <snarkster> yup
[20:41] <snarkster> Flootenkerp: it wont help
[20:41] <lorecaster> http://pastebin.com/m4603aba7
[20:42] <Flootenkerp> Well, what do I do?
[20:42] <Flootenkerp> I'm just screwed.
[20:42] <snarkster> i suggest you not install via wubi, I installed via cd, and it worked perfectly
[20:42] <snarkster> Flootenkerp: I already gave you step one
[20:42] <Flootenkerp> Um... but I already have it installed
[20:43] <snarkster> lorecaster: sudo exportfs -ra
[20:44] <lorecaster> snarkster: http://pastebin.com/m35bb7f82
[20:44] <lorecaster> clear
[20:44] <lorecaster> oops, sorry :$ wrong window.
[20:44] <snarkster> your good to go
[20:45] <lorecaster> snarkster: you mean me? I mean that the NFS as a body is fine, since the desktop share works fine. but storage is failing... i kinda need that one more
[20:46] <lorecaster> on my dell... i typed "Sudo mount -t 192.168.2.11:/media/STORAGE /media/server-storage"
[20:46] <lorecaster> and i get an error :(
[20:48] <snarkster> then your mount command isnt correct.
[20:48] <lorecaster> mount.nfs Connection time out
[20:48] <lorecaster> i used the same command with different file locations for the one that worked... this is why i;'m so confused
[20:48] <snarkster> mine is mount server://media/DATA /media/data and all is good
[20:48] <ghostcube> Flootenkerp: is linux booting ?
[20:48] <ghostcube> only vista not ?
[20:48] <Flootenkerp> I'm on it now
[20:49] <Flootenkerp> Only vista
[20:49] <lorecaster> i deleted the "-t nfs" and still get an error, same error.
[20:49] <ghostcube> Flootenkerp: and you didnt smallen vista partition
[20:49] <ghostcube> you had en extra one for linux ?
[20:50] <Flootenkerp> I didn't do that since I don't know how
[20:50] <snarkster> well i did my best..
[20:50] <Flootenkerp> So... I just installed it with wubi, and used linux, that's about it.
[20:50] <snarkster> good luck
[20:50] <Flootenkerp> kk
[20:50] <ghostcube> you installed ubunu by wubi ?
[20:51] <Flootenkerp> yep
[20:51] <ghostcube> ok thats a completely differnt story then
[20:51] <Flootenkerp> how?
[20:53] <snarkster> lorecaster: nfs gets confusing cause its all from the server.. look carefully at your exports file and watch how you type the mount command
[20:53] <snarkster> gets me everytime.. :)
[20:53] <lorecaster> snarkster: this is what frustrates me... i unmounted desktop... then remounted it successfully... using the IDENTICAL command for the different locations... it won't mount storage. checking exports now
[20:54] <lorecaster> where is the exports file located?
[20:54] <ghostcube> Flootenkerp: i cant help u i never used wibu thats he problem :)
[20:54] <snarkster> "/etc/exports"
[20:55] <snarkster> ive never used wubi either
[20:55] <ghostcube> isnt there a wubi troubleshooting or so
[20:55] <snarkster> I just backedup all my linux data, installed a restore cd for vista then reinstalled linux changing the windows partition size..
[21:03] <snarkster> ok im back
[21:03] <snarkster> i dont even know that wubi uses grub
[21:03] <snarkster> i thought wubi allowed you to run linux like a application

[21:05] <Viking667> good evening. I've got a question about changing from gdm to kdm. How would I "disable" gdm from starting?
[21:05] <snarkster> by installing kdm and choosing it as the preferred one
[21:05] <snarkster> youll want to do that in terminal
[21:06] <Viking667> it's the "choosing it as the preferred one" that I can't remember how to do.
[21:06] <Viking667> I have a reasonable level of expertise, but haven't done this on Ubuntu yet.
[21:06] <snarkster> ah
[21:07] <Viking667> I just got told I could change gdm.conf to gdm.conf-disabled
[21:07] <snarkster> well thatll work.
[21:08]  * Viking667 thinks that's a rather brutish solution, though.
[21:08] <snarkster> I have a complete gnome installation and a complete kde installation. at install time I chose kdm and never had any issues
[21:08] <Viking667> I'm _trying_ to go for "elegant", but I suspect only gdm's removal from it.
[21:08] <Viking667> err, only GDM's removal will solve this.
[21:08] <snarkster> i believe the elegant solution is uninstall. LOL
[21:09] <ghostcube> yep
[21:09] <Viking667> yeh.
[21:09] <Viking667> Ah well. Uninstall it is, then.
[21:09] <Brian_H>  anyone know in kubuntu where you disable the "you will be logged out in 30 seconds" message?
[21:09] <snarkster> ok im outta here as no one can answer my question anyway
[21:10] <Viking667> bah. Crud.
[21:10] <Viking667> I can't remove it.
[21:11] <Viking667> for some funny reason, the compilers of "Ubuntu Studio" decided that gdm was a dependency. *sigh*
[21:12] <snarkster> maybe they can help you more
[21:14] <prog> hello
[21:18] <lorecaster> i've been checking all my bases, in two exact same cases, as far as i can tell, two shares on one computer are being shared to another computer... host is DESKTOP and client is DELL... i want to share DESKTOP's desktop, and a storage partition to my DELL computer... the desktop folder shares flawlessly and instatnly, storage cannot be shared. i checked exports, and the codes are identical, with the exception of
[21:18] <lorecaster> the file location of course... and i'm using the exact same command to mount each folder to a different /MEDIA location on DELL... anyone able to offer any advice?
[21:18] <Viking667> ah well.
[21:18] <elpinchazo> dont take any wooden nickles
[21:19]  * elpinchazo gives advice
[21:20] <lorecaster> elpinchazo: you're the sauciest person i've ever seen here!
[21:20] <lorecaster> elpinchazo: that's awesome :D
[21:20] <lorecaster> elpinchazo: i tip my sarcasm crown to you, good sir (50-50 chance at you being male)
[21:21] <elpinchazo> low expectations,i can work with that
[21:21] <lorecaster> elpinchazo: any idea of what i can do here? or where i can look? who i can ask?
[21:21] <lorecaster> elpinchazo: i'm kinda up the proverbial sewage creek if i cannot get this share to work...
[21:22] <elpinchazo> run in circles waving your arms is the best i've got
[21:22] <Moranwe> he
[21:22] <lorecaster> elpinchazo: tried that
[21:22] <Moranwe> is there a tool to repair my kubuntu box? cause i cant start it
[21:22] <lorecaster> elpinchazo: ... still not helping the computer, but the workout is a nice side-effect
[21:22] <blueyed> Moranwe: what's the reason/error?
[21:23] <Moranwe> blueyed: when i try to login x server restarts and i get back to login. (i think this is cause i got a problem with my nvidia drivers) so i tried console login and typed startx( then i got my gui).
[21:23] <Moranwe> is there a way to make startx start when i login?
[21:24] <blueyed> Moranwe: uhh.. AFAIK startx is basically what kdm does, too. Take a look at /var/log/Xorg.0.log (after the crash)
[21:25] <Moranwe> blueyed: can i send you the log cause i cant find anything
[21:28] <Moranwe> blueyed:
[21:28] <Moranwe> http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m47a1a36
[21:30] <lorecaster> anyone? anyone? here's a repaste...
[21:31] <lorecaster> http://pastebin.com/m68d49381
[21:34] <blueyed> Moranwe: is this a failed start really? The only error appears to be: (EE) XKB: No components provided for device Virtual core keyboard
[21:34] <blueyed> (with fallback following it)
[21:35] <Moranwe> ys
[21:35] <blueyed> Moranwe: "ddxSigGiveUp: Closing log" at the end is "funny", too - but dunno. does not look like a nvidia problem (to me)
[21:36] <Moranwe> anyway i deleted a lib
[21:36] <washuu_de> I'm looking for the right channel...
[21:36] <jhutchins_lt> Is there any kind of menu.list for grub2 that I could copy into a grub1 menu for another distro?
[21:36] <washuu_de> My question is...
[21:36] <washuu_de> [22:27] <washuu_de> Hi, does anyone know about apache webserver and how to not let clients open a filelist while direct access to files by links from the main page succedd?
[21:36] <washuu_de> [22:28] <washuu_de> Till now I only managed to either stop liting and read or all is open.
[21:36] <Moranwe> blueyed: i deleted a lib, then kde wouldnt start, so i tried install kubuntu-desktop to fix it. now i have kde and the drivers but cant login
[21:37] <blueyed> Moranwe: which lib?
[21:37] <blueyed> you could look it up in (maybe) /var/log/dpkg.log
[21:37] <Moranwe> blueyed: some dependancy of kde-desktop
[21:37] <Moranwe> blueyed: but i have it now
[21:38] <Moranwe> blueyed: does it matter?
[21:38] <washuu_de> Hi Werner... moin moin ;-)
[21:38] <blueyed> Moranwe: probably not, but I don't know.. sorry, I think I cannot help further.
[21:38] <werner_> hi
[21:39] <blueyed> Moranwe: try a xorg related channel - and provide them your pastebin.
[21:39] <Moranwe> blueyed: some guy in the past who told me to try to  type startx in console, also told me . to put startx in the default processes during boot or login
[21:39] <Moranwe> blueyed: he told me to edit some file
[21:40] <blueyed> Moranwe: if startx works for you, this is a good workaround - but you can do so manually. I would rather try to get the "normal" process back on track, than editing some init files.
[21:40] <werner_> hatte wer einen schlaganfall.so wie ich?
[21:40] <Moranwe> blueyed: so how could i do it
[21:41] <Moranwe> blueyed: x restarts
[21:41] <washuu_de> Ikke nikke... ;-)
[21:41] <washuu_de> werner
[21:41] <blueyed> Moranwe: what? I thought startx works?
[21:41] <Moranwe> blueyed: yes it does,
[21:41] <Moranwe> blueyed: but i want my login to work, and also with startx i have some problems
[21:41] <Moranwe> blueyed: another network manager is used not kdes, and have problem with sound
[21:42] <blueyed> Moranwe: so, this is your workaround.. please try a Xorg related channel..
[21:42] <werner_> ja,hier! washuu
[21:42] <blueyed> Moranwe: are you running karmic?
[21:42] <washuu_de> werner: hast du eine AHnung, welchen channel ich brauch um eine Apache Frage zu stellen?
[21:42] <werner_> #nee,keine ahnung

[21:43] <salpta> I asked this last night: Recently coming back to linux  - Is there a way to run a hardlink across devices yet?
[21:43] <washuu_de> tnx, werner
[21:46] <lorecaster> anyone?
[21:47] <salpta> Lorecaster: Have you tried reading up on setting your display as two devices in xorg.conf with one offset 50%
[21:47] <blueyed> salpta: afaik not
[21:48] <blueyed> salpta: but please google :)
[21:49] <salpta> Drat.  Thanks Blue.  I've been googling, but was coming up short. =(
[21:49] <blueyed> wahooooo: #apache ?
[21:49] <lorecaster> salpta: i have no idea how to do that... mucking though nvidia-settings now
[21:49] <washuu_de> blueeyed: yes
[21:50] <washuu_de> blueeyed: The doc tells, that apache is a user "www-root"...
[21:51] <neverendingo> hey guys, i just installed with wubi. i configured like requested, but when booting it up finally i am not able to login with the credentials provided earlier. known issue or what could be wrong?
[21:53] <lorecaster> salpta: any ideas?
[21:54] <washuu_de> Hi egy
[21:54] <salpta> Still searching.  I had a link to a good xconf guide, but It's been a while since i've futzd with it.
[21:54] <washuu_de> I've seem your nick only yesterday...
[22:04] <salpta> lorecaster: Ok here we go: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=83973  What you can do is set your display as two monitor displays.  Force the first to 50% of the total screen resolution, then make a second monitor section that's also 50% of the total screen, but is offset by the same amount.  Backup first!
[22:05] <lorecaster> start gdm

[22:09] <MetroidMaster> Hi everyone
[22:10] <moreno> ciao
[22:10] <moreno> !list
[22:10] <lorecaster> salpta: i have to try it later, i've got a prior obligation
[22:10] <lorecaster> thanks though!
[22:10] <salpta> Unfortunately I can't write it out, but look at the [ Section"screen" ]
[22:10] <MetroidMaster> I've got a challenge for anyone who's up for it. Helping me get my Brother MFC-5840CN
[22:11] <salpta> and alterin
[22:11] <moreno> jes
[22:11] <salpta> meh.
[22:12] <moreno> ci sta un italiano??
[22:12] <moreno> ci sta un italiano??
[22:12] <MetroidMaster> Is anyone willing to help me?
[22:12] <moreno> I
[22:12] <moreno> what's your matter??
[22:12] <moreno> what's your problem??
[22:13] <MetroidMaster> Well, I can't seem to get my printer working, and I've looked on the Brother website, but I'm not sure how to go about installing the drivers
[22:14] <moreno> reinstall the drivers
[22:14] <MetroidMaster> I've tried
[22:14] <MetroidMaster> I'm starting to wonder if the printer isn't compatable with Ubuntu 9.10
[22:16] <moreno> search other drivers
[22:19] <moreno> where I can download file???
[22:21] <amichair> is this normal after an upgrade to karmic is complete (after restart)? http://paste.ubuntu.com/316381/
[22:21] <moreno> jes
[22:21] <amichair> was that a yes?
[22:22] <moreno> yes
[22:23] <amichair> are all those games and apps no longer supported?
[22:24] <moreno> sudo apt-get upgrade
[22:24] <amichair> already upgraded
[22:24] <moreno> yes
[22:24] <MetroidMaster> Hey, I think I've found a way to get my computer going
[22:25] <MetroidMaster> Thanks for the help
[22:25] <salpta> You're probably seeing old versions of KDE being superceded by KDE4, like kde3.5
[22:26] <amichair> ok. bye bye games :-)
[22:26] <salpta> nono.. There are upgraded versions of them is all.
[22:26] <salpta> I'm playing sodoku now.... <.<  >.>
[22:26] <amichair> then it would ask to upgrade them, not remove them, no? or did they all get renamed?
[22:27] <amichair> nope, only 2 games left in the menu
[22:27] <amichair> I guess now I can reinstall them. strange.
[22:28] <amichair> thanks though :-)
[22:29] <moreno> list for download???
[22:32] <r00t_ninja> moreno: what are you tring to do?
[22:37] <MetroidMaster> Hey r00t_ninja, any ideas on how to install a Brother MFC-5840CN USB printer?
[22:37] <MetroidMaster> I've been looking online, but none of the things I've found seem to help or work
[22:39] <moreno> metroidMaster=http://www.howtodrivers.com/model63.html
[22:40] <r00t_ninja> it apparently works perfectly
[22:40] <r00t_ninja> http://www.openprinting.org/show_printer.cgi?recnum=Brother-MFC-5840CN
[22:41] <r00t_ninja> brother supplies binary drivers
[22:41] <r00t_ninja> in rpm and deb formats
[22:41] <MetroidMaster> But which one do I use to get it to work under the Printer Setup thing in Ubuntu?
[22:42] <r00t_ninja> does it give you some options?
[22:42] <r00t_ninja> you will need the deb
[22:43] <moreno> root_ninjia: I would like to download movies and other files
[22:43] <MetroidMaster> Well, I've downloaded the deb packages, I think...and tried installing them
[22:43] <r00t_ninja> moreno: your problem??
[22:43] <r00t_ninja> error?
[22:44] <MetroidMaster> moreno, you sent me an exe. I don't see how that's going to get me the drivers for the printer
[22:44] <r00t_ninja> you then go into system settings -> printer configuration
[22:45] <moreno> root:in this channel you can download files?
[22:45] <r00t_ninja> then new printer
[22:46] <meinmartini_> Hello, everyone. I'm curious about the differences between Ubuntu and Kubuntu. Is it just a different interface?
[22:47] <r00t_ninja> kubuntu uses the kde desktop enviroment
[22:47] <moreno> metroid: http://adamfoster.net/blog/?p=6
[22:47] <r00t_ninja> kubuntu uses the kde
[22:47] <r00t_ninja> ubuntu uses gnome
[22:47] <meinmartini_> I'm a Linux n00b; I'm just curious :)
[22:48] <meinmartini_> Is KDE more demanding on a video card?
[22:48] <r00t_ninja> i would say kde probably has slighly higher system requirements
[22:48] <r00t_ninja> http://www.brother.com/cgi-bin/agreement/agreement.cgi?dlfile=http://solutions.brother.com/Library/sol/printer/linux/rpmfiles/cups_wrapper/cupswrapperMFC5840CN-1.0.2-3.i386.deb&lang=English_gpl
[22:48] <FloodBotK1> r00t_ninja: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[22:49] <r00t_ninja> thats the brother printer driver
[22:50] <meinmartini_> K. I'm just reading a bit about it. I FINALLY got my wireless adapter to work for Ubuntu, but I have a desktop that's capable of running 64-bit OSes.
[22:51] <MetroidMaster> I tried running that program, but I get errors
[22:51] <r00t_ninja> what errors?
[22:51] <r00t_ninja> meinmartini_: did you install 64bit ubuntu?
[22:51] <ncfi1013_> if i have an optical drive that is capable of burning blu-rays does that mean that an 8gib dual layer dvdrdl can also be a blu-ray recordable disc?
[22:51] <meinmartini_> No
[22:51] <MetroidMaster> That's the thing, I can't copy and paste them
[22:51] <meinmartini_> Not on my laptop
[22:52] <r00t_ninja> metroid master: screenshot
[22:52] <MetroidMaster> Should I take a screenshot and send it to you?
[22:52] <r00t_ninja> wait thouggh
[22:52] <meinmartini_> Plus I don't think it's graphically capable of running KDE, though I hear I can install KDE and remove GNOME
[22:52] <MetroidMaster> I've got the screenshot
[22:52] <r00t_ninja> meinmartini: my geforce fx5500 works fine with kde
[22:52] <MetroidMaster> How do you want me to send it?
[22:52] <r00t_ninja> imageshack
[22:53] <r00t_ninja> or something like that
[22:53] <meinmartini_> Let me look up my video card specs
[22:53] <meinmartini_> It's pretty old; c.2003
[22:53] <MetroidMaster> ok
[22:54] <r00t_ninja> also on the brother site it says
[22:54] <r00t_ninja> If you receive an error message during the installation about LPD / LPRng, please ignore and continue with the installation.
[22:54] <meinmartini_> "Intel® 852GM 64bit Memory Bus Data Width, 2D and 3D graphics accelerator, digital video accelerator, 32MB UMA DDR video memory"
[22:54] <meinmartini_> I should check support forums to see if anybody has an issue with it
[22:55] <MetroidMaster> http://img33.imageshack.us/content.php?page=done&l=img33/1310/screenshotgdebigtk.png
[22:56] <r00t_ninja> ahh wait
[22:56] <meinmartini_> Supposedly it is a bit slow. But I'm not too concerned about having insane visuals on this laptop.
[22:57] <r00t_ninja> MetroidMaster: just realised you need to install this first: http://www.brother.com/cgi-bin/agreement/agreement.cgi?dlfile=http://solutions.brother.com/Library/sol/printer/linux/rpmfiles/lpr_debian/mfc5840cnlpr-1.0.2-1.i386.deb&lang=English_lpr
[22:57] <r00t_ninja> you probably wont need the first one
[22:58] <MetroidMaster> You sure? Cuz I might've already installed it
[22:59] <ncfi1013_> if i have an optical drive that is capable of burning blu-rays does that mean that an 8gib dual layer dvdrdl can also be a blu-ray recordable disc?
[22:59] <r00t_ninja> MetroidMaster: im sure
[23:00] <meinmartini_> For the purpose of customization, is there anyway to install some sort of Dock and remove the taskbar?
[23:01] <r00t_ninja> MetroidMaster wait
[23:01] <r00t_ninja> the packages are in the repos
[23:02] <MetroidMaster> Really?
[23:02] <MetroidMaster> Where?
[23:02] <r00t_ninja> you need the brother-lpr-drivers-extra
[23:02] <r00t_ninja> package
[23:02] <r00t_ninja> and
[23:02] <r00t_ninja> brother-cups-wrapper-extra
[23:03] <MetroidMaster> Where would I find those?
[23:04] <MetroidMaster> Are they in the Software Center?
[23:04] <r00t_ninja> search them in kpackage kit
[23:04] <r00t_ninja> or try
[23:05] <r00t_ninja> sudo apt-get install brother-cups-wrapper-extra
[23:06] <MetroidMaster> Any other things to install?
[23:07] <r00t_ninja> no that should be it
[23:07] <r00t_ninja> maybe brother-lpr-drivers-extra
[23:07] <r00t_ninja> but im not sure
[23:08] <MetroidMaster> Hey! It worked!
