datzHi, I recently installed KDE after initally installing gnome and noticing on the log in screen different desktop managers could be selected. In KDE, the networking portion doesn't seem to work. Does anyone know why this might be?03:20
wrgbdatz: do you have a network manager icon in your notification area -- looks like a cable with a connector on it03:28
datzwrgb, when I was logged in, yes03:28
datzifconfig showed maunal IP settings from gnome03:28
datzwrgb: I set the same configuration in KDE network manager03:29
datzI can bring up apache index with either localhost, or local IP address03:29
wrgbdatz: is it wired or wireless03:30
datzwired03:30
datzwrgb: I'm not booted to ubuntu/kubuntu, but can be FYI03:31
wrgbdatz: when you click on the network manager icon does it show eth0 active or something similar03:31
datzit said active03:31
luis_For some reason my kubuntu laptop SD reader is not working, and it worked nicely like 5 hours ago!!! whats happening???03:32
wrgbdatz: should be working, don't know what else to tell you03:33
datzwrgb: rats...03:33
datzI thought so too03:33
datzwrgb: going to try to boot to it again, brb...any help appreciated03:34
wrgbdatz: ok03:34
=== m4v_ is now known as m4v
datzwrgb: booted now...networking is ...working03:38
datzwrgb: any KDE themes?03:39
wrgbdatz: great! before, did you log out of gnome and log back in to kde without restarting?03:39
datzwrgb: yep, that's what I did03:39
wrgbdatz: kde-look.org for kde, gnome-look.org for gnome03:40
datzthanks03:41
datzanything preinstalled like appearances tab in gnome?03:41
wrgbdatz: righ-click and choose desktop settings -- only one other theme available, though03:42
datzok, thanks03:42
wrgbdatz: you can control almost everything about the apperance in system settings > appearance03:43
wrgbdatz: have fun!  time for bed....03:45

nomopofomoanyone have a logitech mouse they are able to make work with konqueror like it does in firefox or chrome in gnome?03:58
iconmefistonomopofomo: like it does with firefox? what do you mean exactly?04:00
nomopofomoif you don't have a logitech mouse with side buttons you won'tknow what i'm talking about but i've got an mx510 and by clicking the side buttons i can go forward and back04:01
ScuniziWhat is kdeuBlog?04:09
nomopofomomicroblog04:09
Scunizitied to twitter? or do you have to have another account someplace04:09
nomopofomoyou can tie it to twitter04:10
nomopofomothat's one of two options i believe04:10
iconmefistonomopofomo: did you have to set up the button mapping to get the mouse buttons to work with firefox? or it just works?04:10
ScuniziI had put my twitter account in it to no effect.. do I need to belong to identi.ca to make it work?04:11
nomopofomoiconmefisto: just works04:11
nomopofomoScunizi: no04:11
Scunizinomopofomo: ah I see.. there's a drop down and twitter is another choice..04:13
Scuniziwow.. facebook looks horrible in konqueror.. is there a way to fix it?04:24
Rioting_PacifistF6 then change the url to04:24
Scunizi?04:26
nomopofomoScunizi: try installing arora04:30
nomopofomoor chrome04:30
nomopofomoi recommend chrome actually04:30
Rioting_Pacifistwell tbh it was a joke, konqueror looks ok here, but i just use firefox it's the best browser for supporting the real web04:31
Rioting_Pacifistchromium is aparently not bad but it's not in the default repos so arora (webkit based) may work, but go with FF as i can guarantee it works04:33
Scuniziwhat's arora? another browser?04:35
nomopofomoyep04:36
nomopofomoit uses an html engine called webkit which renders facebook perfectly04:36
Scunizibeen using gnome for 5 years.. never heard of that one.. :)04:36
nomopofomoah, i think gnome's browser--epiphany? i think it's called--uses webkit now too i think...04:37
Nic_Hello04:37
nomopofomohi04:38
Nic_Does anyone here know much about Wubi?04:38
nomopofomoisn't that the windows installer for ubuntu?04:38
Nic_It is indeed.04:38
Rioting_Pacifistit causes problems, that's all i know04:38
nomopofomowhat's wrong nic?04:39
Nic_Well supposedly you can use a pre downloaded ISO with it, which I have the Kubuntu AMD4 Desktop ISO, yet when I start Wubi it ttries to download another copy regardless.04:39
Scunizinomopofomo: nice suggestion.. works good.. time will tell if it's close to FF or Chrome04:40
nomopofomoby download do you mean install or do youmean it tries to download a copy of itself in iso form?04:40
nomopofomoif you're trying to run it without making any modifications to your system you can just boot the cd when your computer is starting04:41
Nic_It tries to download an ISO which I keep cancelling as I'm running out of usage.04:41
nomopofomoso you already have the iso? what's it called? where'd you download it from?04:41
nomopofomoScunizi: np, enjoy04:41
Nic_"kubuntu-9.10-desktop-amd64.iso" and i have "kubuntu-9.10-desktop-i386.iso" as well just to check it wasn't a 64 bit problem, I got them unmetered from my isp04:42
nomopofomounmetered from your isp?!04:42
nomopofomowhat's that mean04:43
Nic_im in australia, our downloads are counted and we get allocated a certain download amount each months, however most internet service providers offer unmetered downloads of things like linux so i downloaded it without it counting toward my monthly limit04:44
nomopofomook i take it you're in windows at the moment? how are you trying to install it? are you mounting the iso images are burning htem to disc?04:44
Nic_i am in windows and as per the instructions the iso is in the same folder as wubi.exe04:45
nomopofomoah, okay04:45
nomopofomolet me do some quick research04:45
Nic_oakie dokie :)04:46
nomopofomook my suggestion is to mount the iso because i think wubi.exe is a torrent downloader with the torrent built in04:46
nomopofomoeither mount or burn the iso04:46
nomopofomosuggest burning it04:46
Nic_righto, so will wubi install it from a cd then?04:47
kartookhey all04:48
Rioting_PacifistNic_:  IIRC wubi is included on the cd if you run it in windows, i'm not sure tho04:48
kartookwhat sup ?04:48
nomopofomoit sounds like he downloaded a version of wubi.exe that was a downloader04:49
Nic_uh i must have done04:49
Nic_ok thank you for the info, ill burn it to cd :)04:49
nomopofomonic_ you need to burn the disc or mount it04:49
nomopofomocool04:49
ScuniziNic_: you might consider installing virtualbox and load it in there.. it will make a virtual machine out of the install so you can run ubuntu in a window04:50
Rioting_Pacifistonce you burn the CD you can try ubuntu in live mode without touching windows see if you like it before you install it (try before you, get it for free anyway)04:50
Nic_yes i already have a virtual machine but i would like to be able to run linux straight from boot, my parents still use windows though04:50
Nic_yes yes i know all this haha been there and done that :)04:51
ScuniziNic_: straight from boot then create a dual boot.. don't mess with wubi04:51
nomopofomojust burn it then you should be able to install from cd in windows or boot from it04:51
Rioting_Pacifistwubi is buggy but it means you can install without knowing about re-partitioning your windows drive, at worst it will give you a bad ubuntu install04:51
Nic_nah i dont want to repartition, im happy with it using a virtual file04:52
Rioting_Pacifistyeah wubi is the way to go, settings that up without wubi is a PITA04:52
Scunizijust depends.. if you already have a VM server available then that's typically easier.. with vbox you can CTRL+F and run full screen just like there wasn't anything behind it04:54
=== imperindo is now known as indo
Nic_anyway thanks all have a good one :)04:55
nomopofomonp04:55
Rioting_PacifistScunizi: a VM comes with a performance hit running in a virtual file means your running ubuntu normally jsut disc access is slower04:57
ashley_hey guys04:57
ashley_wassup noobs....04:57
ShaxorHow do I get the Equalizer to work in Amarok?04:59
ScuniziRioting_Pacifist: can yes.. but not that much... at least on the machines I'm running vm's on.. actually running this os vm'd w/ vbox on ubuntu 8.04.. working well.. obviously not like a true install but certainly MUCH better than running from a cdrom or usb..04:59

jhutchins_ltThe boot menu no longer makes any sense.  I copied the default entry and it says it can't find the partition (although I can mount it).16:27

netsrohthi ;)17:12
KGBUNITHey! ;) I am having some problems installing and I wonder if someone can help me?17:12
KGBUNITNo one able to help?17:13
netsrohti'm fairly new to (k)ubuntu, but maybe I can...17:14
KGBUNITOK17:14
KGBUNITwell17:14
KGBUNITI want to dual boot with windows17:14
jeluесть русскоговорящие?17:14
KGBUNITIn the installer, when it asks me what I want to do with the discs17:15
KGBUNITI choose: setup discs manually17:15
KGBUNITor something as opposed to wipe the whole disc17:15
kavurtjelu: #ubuntu-ru17:15
KGBUNITthen it shows me 3 things. 1 at the top says /dev/sda17:16
KGBUNIT2nd one down is /dev/sda117:16
KGBUNIT3rd one is /dev/sda517:16
KGBUNITsda 5 is the swap partition17:16
KGBUNITsda 1 is my windows partition17:16
KGBUNITand I dont know about sda because when I choose to add a partition table there, it says it is going to wipe the other partitions17:17
KGBUNITtheres no option for me to change the size of the windows one17:17
netsrohtI guess you are not familiar with linux partion naming...17:17
KGBUNITWell17:17
KGBUNITto be honest, not really17:18
kavurtKGBUNIT: sda is the hard drive itself, it's not a partition17:18
netsrohtthen I guess you shouldn't try it this way17:18
jelukavurt, unfortunately there is no kubuntu chanel17:18
netsrohtmy hint:17:18
KGBUNITive used linux alot before17:18
KGBUNITnormally ubuntu, and the intstaller there is just dragging something to change the size17:18
netsrohtyes normally17:19
kavurtjelu: I think that includes kubuntu too. did you ask your question there?17:19
netsrohtwhy not in your case? any idea?17:19
KGBUNIT?17:19
netsrohtwhat I did, when I installed a dual boot17:19
netsrohtI used windows itself to resize the ntfs partition17:20
netsrohtso that there was enough space left17:20
netsrohtand told ubuntu to install itself in the empty space17:20
KGBUNITYeah, i could do that, so there is no other way at all to do it?17:21
KGBUNITwith the kubuntu installer?17:21
netsrohtas you already said, normally he gives you the possibility to shrink the windows partitions...17:22
yamikuronueI seem to have lost the ability to suspend to ram/sleep upon closing the lid of my laptop; I installed some updates last night and now the option isn't even in the power profile dropdown at all. Any thoughts? Running Karmic17:22
BluesKajdoleyb, ok I enabled the powerdevil to see what you mean . the cpu was set to the commands that i gve in the cli using cpufrequtils like :17:22
alexanderhi i installed matlab on my linux but i dont see any shortcut to run it. any ideas?17:22
KGBUNITOK netsroht thank you for the help :) does gparted work on kde based systems?17:23
KGBUNITI could do it from that17:23
netsrohtyes17:23
jeluyes, but i didn't get an answer17:23
netsrohtit should ;)17:23
sikihey guys17:23
rorkalexander: programs are usually installed in /usr/bin/ you can look for matlab there and make a shortcut yourself17:23
BluesKajKGBUNIT, yes you could use the kubuntu live cd install-manual partiton option , it's very striaghtforward17:23
sikii have no plasma desktop17:23
doleybalexander: press alt-f2 and type matlab?17:24
KGBUNITSo its command line?17:24
netsrohtyou need to type matlab -desktop17:24

BluesKajKGBUNIT, then make sure you r pc is set to boot from the cdromn first (which most are) and insert the kubuntu install disc and choose the first option17:31

KGBUNITBluesKaj: Then I cant resize windows partition, theres no option to...17:33
BluesKajKGBUNIT, do you to keep windows?17:33
BluesKajwant17:34
kavurtKGBUNIT: I think you should defrag your hard drive from windows 5 times or more, to be able to see the resize option in kubuntu instlall17:34
jeluBluesKaj, thanks, i use update-notifier instead of update-notifier-kde... but it would be better to use native kde notifier i guess17:34
BluesKajkavurt, that's not necessary17:34
kavurtBluesKaj: what should be done then?17:35
BluesKajjelu, are you udgraing from jaunty ?17:35
jeluBluesKaj: no, clean install17:36
BluesKajKGBUNIT, in the partitioner option choose manual partitioning17:36

KGBUNITThanks BTW tsimpson :P I am blind today :)17:46
BluesKajKGBUNIT, then you need to defrag first , then  partition your drive before trying to install kubuntu . Find an app called GParted-live-cd and burn it to a disk , use that disk to partition part drive for linux ext4 , then install kubuntu17:46
BluesKajpart of the drive that is17:47
KGBUNITRight, or could I use the ubuntu live CD with gparted installed by default?17:47
netsrohtyes you can17:47
KGBUNITOK, thank you BluesKaj and netsroht :) thorsten :P17:48
BluesKajyes you could but gparted is more useful as a separate utility17:48

Mamarokif there was a powermanager or acpi package in your update you have the culprit, BTW18:04
yamikuronueMamarok: yeah, but I dont' think I've ever once managed to solve something using a chat for help >.> probably because if it's at all simple or googleable I google it and figure it out18:04
Mamarokbecause you didn't google first? :)18:04
yamikuronuehuh? No, that's my point: if googling fixes it, it's commonly known, and people are more likely to know what the problem is, so by only coming in when google doesn't turn up anything, I'm only asking apparently esoteric questions18:05
BluesKajthere are some issues with power devil profiles being changed after updates18:05
yamikuronueI do note that kubuntu-default-settings was updated18:06
m_tadeuTm_T: guess it worked out...thx again:)18:06
yamikuronuebut I don't even have the option anymore, so it's not just overwriting the settings I selected. Unless there's a master "disable suspend" setting elsewhere...18:06
yamikuronueOthre than that i'm seeing a lot of libs that I don't know what they do, samba, cups, python, firefox - normal update type stuff.18:07

BluesKajdrostie, alas poor juanty I knew him well :)20:47
jimmy51_for who can bear the whips and scorns of out dated repos?20:48
drostiepenguin: what are you using for encryption?20:48

yoheeBluesKaj: thx i will try it, but i've set it in the sound-settings as standard....i really want to remove the module if possible20:50

yoheeBluesKaj: i want to use the onboard sound, not the plugged PCI one ;)20:52
BluesKajoh , why ?20:52
yoheeBluesKaj: because it is better then the on the slot20:53
BluesKajpull it20:53
yoheeBluesKaj: is there a waay to unload the module while loading, or denieing to load the module20:54
drostiepenguin: ecryptfs, eh? I'm more familiar with luks. Perhaps people on #ecrypts on irc.oftc.net can help you?20:54
yoheeBluesKaj: i want to use this card for another OS....thats why i dont to remove it physically20:54
drostiesorry. #ecryptfs20:54
penguinthanks drostie, I will try there20:55
yoheeI love plug and play and when a system have native drivers for my hardware, but i want to be able to diable hardware :/20:57
yoheewhat about to unload the sound module with "modprobe"??20:58
BluesKajyohee , try ther bios route and just disable the pci soundcard20:59
yoheeBluesKaj: but i dont to change bios settings everytime i reboot into my second OS21:00
yohee+want21:00
BluesKajcat /proc/asound/cards , see what shows sup21:02
yoheeBluesKaj: ssems that the SND on PCI-slot ist first (0) and the onbaord the second (1), but i set the onboard-snd to default by gui (systemsettings), command "asoundconf*" dont exists21:07

zed_can someone here help me get flash/java working on kubuntu KK?21:18
yofelzed_: what exactly doesn't work?21:19
zed_well, I installed the restricted packages, but java seems to have issues21:20
zed_started with no clear way to accept the java EULA21:20
ZeikfriedHow would i tell how much RAM my VGA card is using?21:20
BluesKajzed_, open your package manager and enable all sources , except cdrom , including 'other software' then install kubuntu-restricted-extras , flashplugin-nonfree , libdvdcss2 and w32codecs21:20
dfreyHow do I get sane defaults back for kmail?  When I try to reply to an e-mail, it now brings up a blank e-mail instead of quoting the author's message.21:21
zed_k, I'll try that. brb21:21
yoheeBluesKaj: yes both in there21:21
BluesKajok yohee , then just highlight the card you want to use and click on 'prefer' at the bottom right21:23
yoheeBluesKaj: i've done this (by gui:systemsettings)  ;)21:23
yoheei saw in /etc/modprobe.d/   the file blacklist*  is this a genarated one?21:24
zed_I', supposed to go to system settings > add/remove software, correct21:26
BluesKajyes, zed_21:26
yoheewhere can i set modules NOT TO LOAD?21:27
yoheei know the module name, and it was so easy in gentoo to load or not to laod a module (use or not use a hardware) :/21:27
yoheeok its years ago but it was much easier....beacause i knew how to do21:28
yoheeif i had more time im sure i would build my system from scratch...but i dont have it :(21:29
yofelyohee: just add the module name to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf ?21:30

zed_huh, searching for those packages isn't pulling anything up, except for kubuntu-restricted21:33
ZeikfriedIs it possible that there is a command to see how much RAM my VGA chipset has in total?21:33

Benkinoobyhi, got a weired problem. sound worked all right in beginning. i installed xfce as second DE and also tremulous (game). afterwards removed both of them. now sound works with amarok, but with vlc it's lagging and with youtube it doesn't come at all.21:33
Benkinoobyany ideas?21:33

ZeikfriedHi Kaj.23:33
ZeikfriedWel.23:33
ZeikfriedI know that in some cases, i need PulseAudio.23:33
ZeikfriedLike for AC3.23:34
ZeikfriedIf i have Pulse unloaded i only get musical output for audio on my movies.23:34
BluesKajare you sure ?23:34
ZeikfriedYep.23:34
ZeikfriedI can load PulseAudio, and i get full audio output.23:34
ZeikfriedIt is 5.1 channel audio.23:34
BluesKajwhy do i have 4ch output without PA ?23:35
ZeikfriedI dunno.23:35

ZeikfriedThat is what i typed in.23:41
ZeikfriedIt brought up the ALSA mixer, but it says my main card and output are PulseAudio.23:42
BluesKajthat's odd, it should shaow all the cytls etc23:42
ZeikfriedYeah.23:42
ZeikfriedIt does normally in Kubuntu.23:42

ZeikfriedOh well.23:47
ZeikfriedIt's good enough for me.23:47
ZeikfriedKaj.23:47
ZeikfriedYou know anything about Gnome Power Management?23:47
sithlord48zeikfried, the folks @ the ubuntu irc channel might be a bit more helpful23:49
BluesKajZeikfried, the newer OSs use kernel modules that are derived from your hardware/soundcard capabilities, therefore jaunty might supply that 5.1 output23:50
Zeikfriedsithlord48 I am using Kubuntu with Ubuntu-desktop installed on top of it.23:51
ZeikfriedBluesKaj Well i am pretty much screwed on that one, i wont upgrade due to that DRI 2 junk.23:51

ZeikfriedKaj already helped me with it.23:54
ZeikfriedWell kind of.23:54
BluesKajheh, din't much from me23:54
ZeikfriedI cant play AC3 5.1 channel audio unless PulseAudio is loaded.23:54
arcangel_dimee23:54
ZeikfriedI just need an on/off switch for pulseaudio.23:55
ZeikfriedAnd my other question is.23:55
drostie_BluesKaj: out of curiosity, have there been many complaints about upgrading to Karmic? You're in this channel more often than I.23:56
ZeikfriedWould it be a bad thing if i uninstalled my power manager?23:56
BluesKajnot as much as there was for jaunty ,.. the gnome chat is full of compalints  (#ubuntu)23:57
sithlord48i think all the powmanager does for a desktop is monitor sleep and sleep/hybernation states if you don't use that stuff it should be fine23:57
sithlord48yea my upgrade didn't go so good.. so i just did a fresh in stall (and saved my /home partition)23:58
ZeikfriedLaptop.23:58
ZeikfriedI disable my sleep/hibernation myself.23:59
drostie_heh, 'kay. well, here's hoping that when I transcend the upgrader's lies with a faster internet connection, nothing horrible happens. ^^;;23:59
ZeikfriedEspecially the HDD sleep mode.23:59
sithlord48on a laptop you might want to keep it to support your cpu scaling if you cpu does that23:59
