[00:40] ----> to do what? [00:40] in nv forum only have incomplete patchs [00:40] your card doesn't work with the latest drivers? [00:40] trudell: jockey-text --help [00:40] gives corrupt image / odd artifacts? or what? [00:41] no, dont work with last cause kernel is incompatible with drivers [00:41] and kubuntu cant compile drivers [00:41] yes, the 96 is incompatible, tried it myself [00:41] kubuntu has serious problems with graphics cards [00:41] ----> 185 drivers [00:41] through the hardware driver installer [00:42] and we're back to square one [00:42] i was have tried 185, but dont work too [00:42] what card do you have [00:42] cause now driver was united with 190 [00:42] trudell: this is nvidia drivers you're talking about, by the way. not kubuntu drivers [00:42] i have GeForce 2 MX [00:43] well, let's take a look at the supported list on nvidia's home page [00:43] momento [00:43] kubuntu drivers dont work. i need a way to install trhought nvidia drivers [00:44] (and I was going to draw new icons tonight ...) [00:44] by patch or other way [00:44] trudell: try in konsole: jockey-text -l and jockey-text -C [00:45] it doesn't matter, if the drivers don't support your card, GF2 MX is a bit ancient and if I remember, buggy [00:45] do you think that it will works? [00:46] hang on, I'm going through nvidia pages [00:46] oldest card supported is GF 4 [00:47] kubuntu nvdriver install trhought jokey kde but images appears incorrectly and crash all system [00:47] and that's not Kubuntu's fault, but NVidia's [00:47] dont [00:47] I suggest you march into the nearest PC store and get yourself a new card [00:47] nvidia lauched nvdia driver for kernel 2.6.31 [00:47] unless it's a laptop of course [00:48] and newer [00:48] but not for your card [00:48] complain to nvidia and see what they say [00:48] yes, for my card [00:49] 96.43.14 [00:49] in slackware installs well [00:49] in kubuntu not [00:50] and slackware have newer kernel [00:50] did you try to install it through the package manager or apt-get [00:50] kernel 2.6.31 in slackware is obsolete [00:51] no way for it [00:51] i was tried [00:51] and a quick question between: you are SURE that your card works with 96.43.14, I mean you have SEEN it work? [00:51] no way to compile by module-assistant [00:52] yes, slackware runs [00:52] and what's wrong with 96.43.13 that's listed on the KPackageKit? [00:52] its a problem with kubuntu kernel [00:53] 0.0.01 version shift won't make your card run any faster [00:53] 96.43.13 dont run [00:53] ah [00:53] bad compilation, maybe [00:53] well, the solution is simple [00:53] new card / different distro [00:53] por favor [00:54] welll [00:54] different distro [00:54] cause tomorrow new problem [00:54] kubuntu sucks [00:54] right [00:54] kubuntu is a decepticon [00:55] loadus, are you programmer?

This confirms that it's not a cairo-dock issue [02:58] jussi01: konqueror trash:/ ? [02:59] jussi01: it's about the most user-friendly activity that can occur on a desktop (drag/drop), so much more user friendly than hitting "delete" [03:00] poyntz: Im sorry mate, I cant help you here, I dont know whats wrong tbh.

[03:03] ok. is it just me? or does KDE always ask for confirmation every time I try to drag/drop something? [03:04] --really dodgy unnecessary feature. that will be what's killing drag/drop for trash [03:06] poyntz: I think you can change the behavior, cant remember where though, let me have a lookee... [03:06] gosh.... sooo annoying. there's no forum reporting trash issues for kubuntu. as if I'm the only one with the problem???! all I did was install kubuntu-desktop [03:06] jussi01: thanks :D [03:06] then link to /etc/alternatives/usplash-artwork.so [03:09] poyntz: dolphin, settings -> general -> ask for confirmation when ( ithink thats it...)

[03:10] jussi01: i'd been using konqueror as the file browser lol [03:11] jussi01: also, that option you specified doesn't exist under my settings tab [03:11] under general?

[03:13] settings -> (no general) [03:14] jussi01: actually. scrap that. it's in there [03:14] :D [03:14] jussi01: just not directly in the settings tab [03:14] jussi01: it's in dolphin preferences :) [03:14] * jussi01 hugs poyntz [03:14] lol [03:15] jussi01: ok, opening up two instances of dolphin [03:15] poyntz: Im not certain it will work, but I hope :D [03:15] jussi01: yeh it didn't :/ [03:16] jussi01: and killing confirmations didn't help :/ [03:17] jussi01: well i can delete/restore which is a plus. just can't do it via drag/drop [03:18] poyntz: I havent time right now, but if you are aroundd later and I find something...

I always have that confirmation setting in dolphin turned off as jussi01 described [03:30] iconmefisto: I think he means the little move or copy dialog [03:32] jussi01: ok. i've worked out what the problem is. it's definitely not a cairo-dock issue. the problem is that trash:/ in kde doesn't map properly onto ~/.local/share/Trash/files. In other words kubuntu essentially has two trash cans (one that supports drag/drop "~/.local/share/Trash/files" and one that doesn't "trash:/" [03:33] poyntz: ahh, please file a bug. [03:33] i'll try after lunch, brb. === poyntz is now known as poyntz|a [03:40] jussi01: it actually really easy to fix. just point Trash to ~/.local/share/Trash/files. anyhow, i'll do the report now === poyntz|a is now known as poyntz [03:41] poyntz: it may be easy, but still, needs to be done :D [03:41] and thanks for reporting it, doing that make a lot of difference [03:43] hmm. trash:/ (in dolphin or konqueror) and ~/.local/share/Trash/files are the same folder. they are not 2 separate trash locations [03:46] poyntz: is this an upgraded karmic or new install? is that how the trash problem arises? [03:52] hey guys trying to follow some directions on installing proper drivers it says tar xzf what do they mean for [03:52] hello [03:53] can someone help me get my two game pads working? i plug them in and the os does absolutely nothing [03:57] awhatley: is the folder and file name. so if it's a file on your desktop, the path would be /home/your-username/Desktop/my-file [03:59] so when i open up terminal and i do mkdir hybrid_w1 what would the path be [03:59] if u dont mind [03:59] it depends what folder you're in when you do that command [04:00] it just says username@computername But i think i found the folder [04:00] if you're in your home folder (which is the default folder unless you change to another folder) it would create /home/your-username/hybrid_w1 [04:01] so hybrid_w1 would be a folder in your home folder [04:02] ok now installing the driver. it says tar xzf /hybrid-portsrc.tar would Path be the folder where it is or where its going to [04:03] where is hybrid-portsrc.tar ? is it in your home folder? [04:04] its on my desktop apprently [04:06] so it would be tar xzf /home/username/desktop/hybrid-portsrc.tar [04:06] so you could change to the desktop folder first (to keep things simple) with this: cd Desktop [04:06] case sensitive. uppercase D [04:06] but the file has to go into the hybrid folder [04:06] should i move the file to the hybrid folder [04:07] sure [04:07] ok [04:07] it should extract everything according to the folder structure in the tar file [04:08] leave [04:08] ok so it would be tar xzf home/user/hybrid_w1/hybrid-portsrc.tar [04:08] but it might be a bunch of files compressed without a folder structure, in which case you would have all those files in your desktop folder [04:09] yes [04:10] tar: home/awhatley/hybrid_w1/hybrid-portsrc.tar: Cannot open: No such file or directory [04:10] tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now [04:10] tar: Child returned status 2 [04:10] tar: Exiting with failure status due to previous errors [04:10] or just do this first to change to that folder: cd hybrid_w1 and then: tar xzf hybrid-portsrc.tar [04:12] oh that should be -xzf [04:13] same error [04:14] all im trying to do is get the right drivers for my wireless card. apparently im using realtek drivers for a broadcom device === starcraft is now known as starcraftman [04:14] no that's wrong, sorry [04:16] try menu > system > hardware drivers [04:16] or have you tried that already?

[04:22] its bad [04:23] I'm having an issue with grub2. I just got a new laptop today with Win7. I installed Kubuntu and shrank the windows partition. Set up the Kubuntu side of things okay. Rebooted to configure the win7. After a couple of reboots there and some updates I now cannot boot. I see the bios post, the grub2 header then the screen goes white for a few seconds and reboots. [04:23] its windows i tell ya [04:24] I tried to dual boot vista and ubuntu and windows locked the hd [04:25] awhatley: I figured it was a windows thing, but would like to find a linux thing to fix it:) [04:25] i got a fix [04:25] just get rid of windows ::P [04:25] best fix ever [04:26] im tryin to convince my friends and family to switch over( although i kind of dont my customers to, then i wont be fixing computers) [04:26] unfortunatly I have two reasons to keep windows. work and spouse [04:26] haha me 2 [04:26] chuckf_: neither have to be permanent *hides* [04:26] thats why i bought myself a new computer and dual booted xp and linux [04:26] haha [04:27] maco: keeping that option for a last choice [04:28] plus for advocacy reasons its nice to say 'see you can keep your windows 7 along side your ubuntu [04:28] mefisto, any luck remembering yet?

[04:43] yea cuz my old one was linksys wrt54gc and it didnt have n so i went to dlink dir 615 [04:43] which is crap but i cant afford to buy another one right now [04:44] maybe router config? I had a problem with uploads even though downloads were working fine, till I lowered the MTU in router config [04:44] would that fix trying to open some websites? i try to post on linuxquestions.org and sometimes it tries to download .php files [04:45] that was my first experience with wireless. so maybe I'm not the best person to ask about it [04:45] lol [04:45] but your the only one helping me [04:45] it just pisses me off .. sometimes i cant connect to my smtp servers and i wanna throw my computer out the window [04:46] try going to http://www.speedtest.net/ and run a test. I couldn't get it to do the upload test at all until I changed MTU [04:47] awhatley: btw, my router is also dlink [04:47] ive never had so many problems with a router before lol [04:48] linksys was so easy to setup [04:48] and dlink is a pain in my a@@ [04:49] what would u suggest for MTU for dsl internet === fetusbub1le is now known as fetusbubble [04:50] I googled the upload problem and my router (DI 524) and someone was having similar problems, said that dsl users should change MTU from default 1500 to 1452, and it magically worked :) [04:51] ok so i changed my mtu [04:52] and now lets see what happens lol [04:53] hmmmm mefisto i think you might have got it [04:53] i was able to post np [04:53] but now if my tx rate is over 54MBPS doesnt that mean im connected to N [04:54] this is the page that gave me the MTU hint: http://forums.whirlpool.net.au/forum-replies.cfm?t=267991 [04:56] your router config should tell you connection details like that somewhere [04:56] well i know wireless g cant tx at 130 and when im downstairs i just checked in my wlan config at my tx rate was 130 [05:00] I guess dlink routers are a learning opportunity [05:00] :) [05:12] hi ..

[07:49] borophyll: interesting, does it have "start at login" in its settings ? [07:49] borophyll: that's what I'm thinking yes [07:50] im new at this, how do i find the start at login settings?

I've set it to 96, but some programs ignore it, like fontforge or Google Earth. Any locations for that value that I should look for? [11:49] loadus: where you have set the dpi? [11:50] System Settings > Appearance > Fonts [11:51] the fontsize in fontforge is unreadable, about two pixels in height [11:51] loadus: it's likely that not all apps follow that setting, you have to find a way to set dpi for X entirely [11:51] same in Google Earth, but the font in the 3D window is ok [11:51] aye, can't find a location where to look for that value - setting it in xorg.conf doesn't work : / [11:52] well, I'll keep searching, thx anyways ^^ [11:54] loadus: ye, unfortunately there's plenty of applications that like to count dpi itself and/or hardcode it and ignore all settings entirely [11:54] I was a bit afraid of that .. [11:55] loadus: for example GNOME is known to ignore detected DPI entirely (I think it still does) [11:57] one way for me to circle around it is to use Virtualbox with kubuntu and use those programs there, but it's a bit slow. :D [11:57] loadus: I recommend to ask in those applications help forums and channels [11:58] they hopefully know how to work out the issue [12:02] Hello people :) [12:02] anybody alive here? I need some help.. [12:03] jancok [12:03] I'm trying to make a copy of my data partition. I mounted a shared folder on my laptop through samba.

In dolphin I clicked on Network -> samba shares -> workgroup -> wernel-laptop and then I pasted all data [12:06] He created the folders, and then I got this error: The file or folder smb://WernerL@wernerl-laptop/tmp-backup/Music/Childen Of Bodom/Are You Dead Yet %3F does not exist. [12:07] my laptop is running vista btw. My pc is kubuntu9.10 [12:12] Hi , does anyone know of a program that will auto sort my music? [12:12] I have 8-9 gigs of songs that are all unsorted , and many duplicates. [12:13] Is there any programs that will sort them into artist or what ever? [12:18] chilli0: Amarok? [12:18] hi [12:19] I have a problem with UUID after upgrading from 9.04 to 9.10 [12:19] help me please! [12:19] loadus: I can't understand amarok , but does that sort the files? [12:19] ubuntu , try #ubuntu [12:19] ubuntu, what problem please clarify [12:19] bazhang: Make sure hes using kubuntu [12:20] chilli0, it creates a complete list of all tracks in the specified media folders, sorted by artist/album/track/filename etc [12:20] !blkid | ubuntu [12:20] ubuntu: To see a list of your devices/partitions and their corresponding UUID's, run this command in a !shell: « sudo blkid » (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibAtaForAtaDisks for the rationale behind the transition to UUID) [12:20] problem is about initramfs [12:20] loadus: O= sounds good. So how can i do that? [12:20] UUID in fstab is the same of grub [12:21] chilli0, fire up Amarok, go to Settings > Collection > and select the folders, where you have the tracks [12:21] I have already seen blkid but I don't know how to solve [12:22] chilli0: and let Amarok read the whole library - it might take a while, reading from ID tags is a bit tedious [12:22] I have modify grub at boot with "e" and I have substituted UUID with /dev/sdb6 (that is my root, not my /boot) [12:22] but nothing [12:23] loadus: So it will make a whole new directory? [12:24] now I have mounted in live my distro and I do upgrade ...but I have an error... (can I past it here?) [12:24] chilli0: Amarok won't create any directory, it only creates a library list, like WinAmp or similar [12:24] ubuntu, paste.ubuntu.com [12:24] loadus: So it wont sort my files?

[12:38] chilli0: I'm pretty sure there is a tag library software out there, that re-organizes files physically .. never seen one though [12:38] ubuntu, you get busybox prompt when trying to boot and have now chrooted into via live cd to try and repair permissions and or mount disks? is that about right?

[14:33] yes [14:33] now I am on it [14:33] ubuntu_: ok, what's in /dev/disk/by-uuid/ now? [14:34] it may be a stupid question but, does anyone know a french channel for trouble on kunbuntu ? (y'a pas quelqu'un qui connais un chan français pour les soucis sous kubuntu ?) [14:34] #kubtunu-fr ? [14:34] !fr | sayaches [14:34] sayaches: Ce canal est en anglais uniquement. Si vous avez besoin d'aide ou voulez discuter en francais, merci de rejoindre #ubuntu-fr [14:34] thx ^^" [14:34] ubuntu@ubuntu:/$ ls /dev/disk/by-uuid/ [14:34] 0233194a-df26-4381-9513-f8610050ac3b 0e34ab9b-9773-4bad-b303-028577402d95 141404777A191155 62927CA3927C7CFB 88ff1bac-859a-4557-a002-55d581f5cd8e 8be3940b-86c1-4d98-8ce3-e0f4fbd3658e e755802a-0451-4b4b-a630-92a018b51afa [14:35] re, nothing changed but i saw ss. i had a forced disk check at 1. startup. due to the delayed start x started perfectly at first try [14:35] i really think that x is started too early perhaps due to the new upstart? [14:35] i used every alpha since jaunty.. it's a many times upgrade system.. [14:36] ubuntu_: ok, so the UUID of the disk/partition has changed somehow. you need to mount the root of the installed system and edit the /etc/fstab from there [14:36] ubuntu_: if you know the device name, you can get the UUID from "sudo blkid" [14:37] x won't load the specified graphicsdriver at first try. so i think it does not use my xorg.conf or the nvidia drivers are not loaded at all so early in startupprogress [14:37] tsimpson, here there are all my boot info http://paste.ubuntu.com:80/325384/ [14:38] ubuntu_: so /dev/sdb6 is your root partition? [14:38] tsimpson, root in grub and root in fstab have the same UUID [14:38] yes [14:38] while my /boot in sdb5 [14:39] ubuntu_: you need to mount /dev/sdb6 and edit the fstab there, make sure all the UUIDs match what blkid gives [14:39] apo-lap, you have to edit xorg.conf or delete it , then drop to a TTY (ctrl+alt+f1) run, sudo nvidia-xconfig [14:39] tsimpson, now I will see you my root fstab [14:39] apo-lap, then ctrl+alt+f7 to get back to your desktop [14:39] i already did. and x does work.. but not "so early" in startup progress. i'm right here chatting with you per konverstaion ;) [14:40] ubuntu_: can you also pastebin the output of "sudo blkid" too [14:40] but i'll try again [14:40] tsimpson, http://paste.ubuntu.com:80/325401/ [14:41] ok, i rm and configured it again [14:41] apo-lap, reboot [14:42] i'll give it a try, brb [14:43] joesu... [14:45] ubuntu_: and you have "root=UUID=8be3940b-86c1-4d98-8ce3-e0f4fbd3658e" in grubs menu.lst? [14:45] yes...now I'll show you it [14:46] Back [14:46] unfortunately nochting changed [14:47] tsimpson, http://paste.ubuntu.com:80/325403/ [14:47] tsimpson, I have tried even root=/dev/sdb6 but nothing [14:48] hi chill [14:48] its chill or chilli? [14:48] where is x or kdm started in kamic? [14:48] chilli dish? [14:48] apo then it's not your drivers or your xorg.conf , there's something your boot process that's causing it === basti2 is now known as basti [14:48] trudell: its chillli0 [14:49] My real name isn't thoe. [14:49] apo --> service kdm start [14:49] yep, i think so too [14:50] apo , you didn't start kdm ? [14:50] spell to me [14:50] apo, sudo /etc/init.d/kdm start [14:51] ? i just turn on my notebook. after some time (shot time after the blue progressbar of usplash disappears) x *tries* to start and tells me a few things [14:51] i cancel all msgs [14:51] i'm thrown back to the starting log [14:51] and about 5 secs later x starts automatically [14:51] and it works [14:51] i just have to kill these error msgs in time [14:51] try to reinstall kdm [14:51] are you using kubuntu? [14:51] otherwise x will not start without me starting kdm or strtx [14:52] yes [14:52] well [14:52] does anyone know of a simple, easy to use, preferably flat-file database program that works with KDE? [14:52] reinstall kubuntu-base from repository [14:52] tsimpson, nothing? It is a strange problem, is it true? [14:52] your problem was a nvidia driver configuration [14:53] if you ever installed by nvidia.com driver [14:53] yes [14:53] few monhs ago [14:53] uninstall it completly [14:53] i think idid.. [14:53] it worked for half a year [14:54] ./NVIDIA-Linux-x86-numberofverion.run --unintall [14:54] ok [14:54] can i download some new driver just to use uninstall? [14:55] not [14:55] trudell, he already installed the right version for his card [14:55] or do i have to use the correct version? [14:55] only what you had used [14:55] i dont know which it was.. [14:55] hummm [14:56] oh wait [14:56] its a problem [14:56] there is an old file here.. [14:56] NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-185.18.14-pkg2.run [14:56] use one near version [14:56] yes [14:56] ok, i switch of kdm and use that uninstall [14:56] use this file to uninstll [14:56] what todo next? [14:56] *off [14:57] apo in order to run the correct driver you need to uninstall any previous versions , since they were the default and will ignore any others installed afterwards [14:57] ctrl+alt+f1 then sh ./NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-185.18.14-pkg2.run --uninstall [14:57] they are all uninstalled per synaptic [14:57] im runnign only 185 [14:58] you will need unintall by archive NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-185.18.14-pkg2.run too [14:58] shall i uninstall 185 now too? [14:58] uninstall alll [14:58] ok [14:58] all of these have bugs in kubuntu [14:58] ubuntu_: I can't see where it's picking up that UUID from [14:59] kubuntu kernels are a grabbag [14:59] pf.. which one shall i use?^^ [14:59] kubuntu kernel sucks [14:59] try to use a kernel from debian repositories [14:59] trudell: stop [14:59] trudell, not true the glx-185 is bug free [14:59] or change your distro do fedora os slackware [15:00] trudell: stop now [15:00] ..

[15:03] it worked liek a charm for years now [15:03] thanks to all the ohters for your support [15:03] well that one'd be a lie...3D works fine :P [15:03] yup [15:03] it even NOW works fine [15:04] it is just x starting too ealry [15:04] BluesKaj: there were already like 3 ops sitting right here when you called that [15:04] due to what ever [15:04] wrgb: hmm, for example sqlite or mysqle ? [15:04] apo: X starts earlier in karmic to speed up boot. are you saying this causes issues on your hardware? [15:04] wrgb- do you mean a GUI program to a specific database, or an entire database system? [15:04] yes [15:04] sdf [15:04] it seems to not use the right settings at *first* start [15:04] tsimpson, to reinstall grub I do update-grub, is it true? [15:05] i cancel all error msgs, wait 5 secs, and x starts all over fine :) [15:05] ubuntu_: there is a guide on: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub [15:05] i'm just pressing esc about 3 times [15:06] the error msgs quit and i'm thron back to startup log [15:06] but i do have to hit esc's in time [15:06] otherwise x won't start on its own [15:06] i then have to login to tty and startx/kdm manually [15:06] that works fine evry time [15:06] apo: can you file a bug "ubuntu-bug xorg"? [15:07] tsimpson: http://paste.ubuntu.com:80/325417/ all is it ok? [15:07] (i hope xorg is the right thing to put in there...) [15:07] apo,, well at least you can boot into kubuntu.. is glxgears working ok? , and , glxinfo | grep direct ? [15:07] tsimpson: I have tried all forums help, but nothing [15:08] right now i have unisnatlled everything grpahic related due to your advise ;) [15:08] the outpul looks good [15:08] but yes, i'm able to play 3d games on native or wine. [15:09] i'll try to uninstall a graphic driver i used few months ago correctly [15:09] i'll be bakc in a few minutes [15:09] apo, so you installed nvidia-glx-185 [15:09] if it does not work i will report in again [15:09] yes [15:09] per envy-qt [15:10] !envy | apo [15:10] apo: EnvyNG is a program to install newer version of nVidia or ATi drivers, it can be found in !Universe as "envyng-gtk" (for Gtk/Gnome) or "envyng-qt" (for Qt/KDE). It is NOT a supported method to install video drivers; please only use it if standard methods fail and at your own risk - See also !BinaryDriver [15:10] tsimpson: I restart ... I hope to solve it.. asap [15:10] now its uninstalled.. [15:10] apo, what's uninstalled ? [15:10] everything graphic related (i hope :/ ) [15:11] everything ? [15:11] Tm_T: how easy are they to use? [15:11] nvidia-graphic [15:11] Dragnslcr: entire database system [15:11] wrgb: I have no idea about easyness, sorry [15:11] except nvidia-glx-185 , apo , right [15:12] wrgb- if you want something simple and standalone, definitely go with SQLite [15:12] Tm_T: ok, thaks i'll try them and see [15:12] * BluesKaj shrugs [15:12] thats unsintalled *right now* too, cause you told me to do so half an hour ago. i did not restart since then [15:12] i could reinstall it now [15:13] Dragnslcr: ok, thanks, i'll give it a try [15:13] wrgb- SQLite doesn't have any kind of server like MySQL or Postgres, it's just a single file for a database and the libraries to use it [15:14] Dragnslcr: does it have a gui? [15:14] apo: I think you need to reboot, then try to install nvidia-glx-185 from repositories (or which version you are needing anyway) [15:14] There are GUI programs for it, yeah [15:14] ok [15:15] Dragnslcr: ok, i'll look into it [15:15] the troll told me to --uninstall an older nvidia.com driver [15:15] apo , you nedd to read everything , not parts ...I told you to install nvidia-glx-185 after uninstalling the previous driver [15:15] it sayslibglx.so is not a symbolic link [15:15] sry, then the troll told me to uninstall everything. :/ [15:15] i gonna get it back [15:15] apo, just a sec wait [15:16] ok [15:17] apo, in the terminal:glxinfo | grep direct [15:17] mesa-utils are not installed atm [15:18] i installed them: [15:18] direct rendering: Yes [15:18] GL_EXT_depth_bounds_test, GL_EXT_direct_state_access, [15:19] ok. then you are fine , apo === markus__ is now known as markus [15:19] localtime(). i have a hard time trying to get wlan working. hardware is working, i can see the network in the scan and i can try to connect but when it prompts me for a password and i enter the correct one it refuses to connect.

[15:42] I'm running kubuntu 9.04 x86 from my laptop [15:42] I'm trying to install kubuntu on my desktop too [15:43] On my desktop I was previously using Debian sid [15:43] I've started the cd but it seems that my Geforce 6600 isn't supported [15:43] so i manually apt-getted nvidia-glx from console [15:44] then configured xorg and manually started kdm [15:44] it worked but now the graphical partition manager doesn't detect two of my 3 hard drives === carlos is now known as carlos__ [15:44] fdisk -l lists them correctly instead [15:45] so I'm stuck [15:45] Is it possible to remove Konquerer and KOffice without harming the system?

[15:49] bbl [15:49] BluesKaj, do you know any tips or tricks for getting sound and video to perform better in KDE? I noticed there's a definite performance knock (as opposed to how they run in win32) [15:49] BluesKaj: damn, so I have to get a whole "alternate" ISO [15:50] damn, copying files over the network is slooooooooow... :( [15:50] wernerl: is it your LAN? [15:50] The microsoft bribes to staff to make ubuntu kernel tainted to not run 3d cards and commercial games linux. [15:50] My pc is wired, my laptop has a wireless connection. I guess that's the problem.. don't know [15:52] wernerl: Ah, nevermind. Had it been wired, I would've suggested you setup NFS with wsize=32768,rsize=32768 as mount options, but slow wireless is probably the culprit :) [15:53] wernerl: are you using encrypted protocols? This could be the bottleneck too [15:53] tsimpson: thanks a lot! we have solved initremfs problem and UUID [15:53] goranm [15:53] can someome please explain this to me. I downloaded the amd64 ISO for Kubuntu, and I ran the wubi installer OFF THAT DISC, why is it downloading the 32-bit version by force inside the installer when I want to install the 64-bit one that i'm running WUBI FROM? [15:54] aomegax: it's strange, initramfs should not use any UUIDs, except maybe swap (for resume) [15:55] gtozzi: yes the wireless connection uses wpa2 encryption. I'll just wait 2 hours.. :+ After this is finished my music collection is the only thing left to backup. Maybe I'm gonna find a better way for that. [15:55] tsimpson: boh, I don't know but after update-initremfs and an apt-get upgrade it wirks [15:55] wernerl: check the CPU usage on both sides during file trasfer [15:55] at least it's fixed [15:56] wernerl: if it's 100% or close, I guess there isn't relly much you cand do [15:56] gtozzi: pc: 10% cpu usage, laptop is 14% currently [15:56] wernerl: so I'm wrong: it isn't an encryption issue [15:57] wernerl: but I can't figure out where is the problem then [15:57] not only is it downloading something i don't want to install, it's taking 5 million years to download it. is there ANY way i can force kubuntu to install using the 64-bit one that i'm running the wubi installer from? instead of it for some reason deciding i should have the 32-bit version? i have 6gb of ram and a core 2 duo processor [15:58] me neither. maybe it's one of the 2 harddrivers that's just crap. [15:58] i downloaded the 64-bit version of Kubuntu specifically so i can install it 64-bit via Wubi, but running Wubi off that disc still decides to download the 32-bit iso instead. [15:58] Lazure: 5 milion yers seems a reasonable time... [15:59] so does anyone know why this is happening? google won't give me any real results on the matter either, and i'm very frustrated and i don't know where to go for help. [15:59] i want to install 64-bit kubuntu through wubi, without it downloading the 32-bit version on me [16:00] hi i have a kubuntu karmic setup, and when I run eclipse, a lot of the windows don't respond to button clicks [16:00] OMFG, i'm monitoring my network traffic right now, it's sending the data with a speed of 6KiB/s.. (couldn't see that in KDE's filetransfer dialog) [16:00] wernerl: maybe you can check a trasfer RAM to RAM. [16:00] like the whole entire preferences window when i click a button, it just selects it, doesn't actually click [16:00] i guess no one can help me. [16:00] Lazure, wubi is meant to give the linux experience without a complete install ..the 64 bit version won't make much difference [16:01] problem blues, is that if i install the 32-bit like i did before, if it breaks just from updating it like it did my 32-bit ubuntu wubi install, i can't fix it with my VM's initrd file [16:01] Lazure: maybe it's this issue https://bugs.launchpad.net/wubi/+bug/465936 [16:01] cuz 32-bit puts a -pae on my kernel which in a VM, does not happen [16:02] wernerl: try something like flood-ping to check throughput [16:03] wernerl: ping -f [16:04] !html [16:04] html is HyperText Markup Language, used to build web pages.

[16:05] 19798 packets transmitted, 19797 received, 0% packet loss, time 14921ms [16:07] wernerl: mhhhh..

[16:17] markus, :) [16:17] Time for food. I'll connect my laptop wired when i'm back. Hope that solves the issue. brb === wernerl is now known as WernerL|f00d [16:19] markus: now now simmer down there [16:22] must have been dumped === carlos is now known as Guest95792 [16:28] hey guys...seems that in ger channel noone can help me, but now I really need some advice here.... [16:29] Urrghs, help with what [16:29] how to start; ok [16:30] I tried to get 2 monitors working, so I changed my xorg.conf [16:30] Urrghs, have you looked at xrandr [16:30] of course I had a backup [16:30] well; now the 2nd monitor is not the problem any more [16:31] after the change...it did not work quite well and everything looked quite strange......so I recovered the old xorg.conf [16:31] now the file is the same as before when everything worked well [16:32] Urrghs, I would suggest you read a bit about xrandr [16:32] !xrandr [16:32] XRandR 1.2 is the new method of running dual screens in !X. Information/HowTo here: http://wiki.debian.org/XStrikeForce/HowToRandR12 [16:32] but still I have got a serious problem here [16:32] Urrghs, ^^ [16:32] but the 2nd monitor is not the issue anymore :( [16:33] Urrghs, have you read through that documentation ? [16:33] no, I did not [16:33] Urrghs, that would be a good place to start [16:33] will it help me with my problem now that the KWin crashes again and again? [16:34] Urrghs, that sounds like a driver issue or something separate; one issue at a time [16:34] only one monitor...nothing changed to before.....old xorg.conf file [16:34] this is what I explain [16:34] Urrghs, I understand, but that is not very informative [16:35] but it started after I changed the xorg.conf file [16:35] sorry mate...I will try to be more exact [16:35] but it is difficult since I really did not change anything on system except the xorg.cong and then changed it back [16:36] Urrghs, honestly, if you did a bit of reading (as above) you would be able to explain the issue much more clearly: such as, I tried this from A, but got error B and provide the errors you got when doing it. [16:36] I never got any errors..... [16:37] Urrghs: do you get some dump or message when kwin crashes? [16:37] the only error I got and get is the one that KWin is unstable and crashes all the time, but OK ; probably you are right...I will look into it [16:38] I used to transfer file from my cell phone to my computer through bluetooth using kbluetooth. But after upgrading to Karmic koala it isn't working. What would be the problem? [16:38] Urrghs: try restarting kwin from konsole after it crashed then see if they are errors [16:39] there are two messages: the first is that it is unstable and that it crashed several times and that I can select another window manager...(but there is only KWin to chose) [16:40] and the other message is that KWin was aborted unexpectedly.......details: kwin PID: 19862 Signal: Aborted [16:41] Urrghs: sorry, I don't know how to help [16:42] whe I start it with console....then it crashes, too [16:43] Urrghs, do dmesg after console crash , and pastebinit [16:46] !utf8 [16:46] Sorry, I don't know anything about utf8 [16:47] kwin: ../../src/xcb_io.c:542: _XRead: Assertion 'dpy->xcb->reply_data != ((void *)0)' failed [16:47] Application::crashHandler() called with signal 6; recent crashes 4 [16:48] KCrash: Application 'kwin' crashing [16:49] sock_file=/home/.../.kde/socket-username-laptop/kdeinit4__0 [16:49] this is all the console is saying [16:49] then I see the crash window....when I close it....everything starts from begining [16:50] always crashes 4 times before the window appears [16:50] damn I've downloaded the wrong iso -.- [16:54] hi all. Can i somehow hide or remove this middle applet part of amarok? I dont need it and its making the window too big? [16:58] lovre: you can configure thw whole amarok2 layout by clicking a button in the up-right part of the window [16:58] lovre: I don't remember what's the button [16:58] and just now I find out another strange thing....I cannot start in safe mode.....it just returns to the login [16:58] gtozzi: i seem to be able to configure it now after i unchecked Lock Layout... [16:59] lovre: nice, you found it :) [16:59] gtozzi: ye :D thanx [17:02] gtozzi: can i change skins in amarok 2.2' [17:03] can someone tell me why my mic wont work on skype, and when i talk, i hear myself... [17:04] rednax: check mixer settings [17:04] i tried google, youtube, im totally a beginner, please give me a step by step instructionss.. [17:05] rednax: locate a speaker icon in the tray bar (down/right) [17:05] rednax: click it [17:05] is there any memory-editor/JIT-debugger (like Ollydbg/Cheat Engine/Art Money/etc) for linux? [17:05] rednax: a volume bar should appear, below, you should have a "mixer" button [17:05] rednax: click the "mixer" button, the mixer should then open [17:05] just thinking that maybe such a X- reconfigure might help, when typing sudo dpkg -reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg it does not work it saysy that option -e (control) and -r (remove) conflict each other [17:06] i use ubuntu 8.04 [17:06] gtozzi: cause that ones' flash works better than 9.04 one [17:06] Urrghs, that is deprecated. the xrandr docs are what you need to look at [17:07] Hans_Henrik: AFAIK this kind of software doesn't work on linux because of better security policies [17:07] rednax: it shoulddn't be different [17:07] gtozzi: there is nothing there saying "mixer" [17:08] gtozzi: umm.. if it's ran by root, i dont see why it shouldn't work tho [17:08] rednax: try right-clicking the icon [17:08] ye? [17:08] gtozzi: what should it say there? [17:08] Hans_Henrik: if you got root privileges, then you can [17:09] rednax: show mixer or something like [17:09] @ bazhang you mean this link? [17:09] gtozzi: no it dosent say anything bout mixer anyhow. [17:09] Hans_Henrik: but I don't know any gui software to do that [17:09] http://wiki.debian.org/XStrikeForce/HowToRandR12 [17:10] Urrghs, yes === WernerL|f00d is now known as WernerL [17:10] rednax: damn, search for mix in you applications then (open the K menu then write mix in the search bar) [17:11] rednax: you should find kmix [17:11] gtozzi: sorry can u explain more easily, im so sorry, but im really new to this. [17:11] gtozzi: ok ill try and find it, but i use ubuntu 8.04, not kubuntu [17:11] rednax: -.-' [17:11] gtozzi: no kmix in there [17:11] rednax: so you are in the wrong support channel... [17:12] gtozzi: well like i said, idk, im totally new to this [17:12] rednax: ask in @ubuntu instead [17:12] I really do not understand how this should help with my KWin, but I will read and try....as change in xorg.conf started it :) [17:14] Cheeky question for anyone, could I check with someone before I fully reinstall everything, would Ubuntu 64x work fine with a 64x Centrino device? :) [17:14] gtozzi: where do i get that id to join thems chat? [17:15] jak, core duo or core2duo [17:16] mm, just intel: centrino Duo [17:16] core duo then [17:16] thats only 32bit [17:16] Oh really? I was sure it was 64 bit [17:17] jak, you have an ubuntu installed there now? === markus__ is now known as markus [17:17] Aye, but as a 32bit isntall [17:17] if its core2 its 64 [17:18] Intel Core 2 Duo T5500 - 1.66GHz (x2), 667MHz FSB, 2MB L2 Cache [17:18] Thats the processor [17:18] there you go [17:18] So I'm good to go with a 64x install? [17:19] Seemed like in the last release of Ubuntu they fixed a lot of graphics errors and my gpu has suddenly burst into a little more life. Thought I'd try and get Savage2 working with a fresh install [17:21] jak, yep [17:21] cannot og into system from cold boot .using karmic [17:22] You're a star bazhang, thanks to you! [17:22] jak, you hunted down all the info :) [17:22] lol =] [17:23] true :) [17:24] Does Ubuntu not advertise an alternative cd download anymore btw? [17:24] Used to be the only way I could get my gpu to work [17:24] jak, it does, just a bit hard to spot on the main page [17:25] jak, let me find a link; was that Kubuntu, correct? [17:25] jak: click on "alternative download options" on the download page [17:25] then on "text-based installer", I think [17:25] ^^ [17:25] lol [17:25] Ah yea I sees it [17:26] I've never installed Kubuntu directly, I always go with a Gnome install and then install KDE over the top [17:26] I'm not much of a Linux wizard [17:26] i read that as linux lizard [17:26] lol [17:27] jak: doin' that you'll end up with a lot of unused gnome-related stuff in your system [17:27] i only have 32 bit.... is 64bit a dramatic increase in speed, performance.... can ubuntu truly take advantage of 64 bit? just curious [17:27] i get by fine with what i have, old computers, 32 bit [17:27] WilliamBuell: it's quitethe same [17:28] WilliamBuell: just a bit faster [17:28] WilliamBuell: 64-bit is useful for many cases where memory is an issue [17:28] WilliamBuell: otherwise, in terms of software compatibility, it's a real bear [17:28] Aye gtozzi, but I find myself switching between them quite a lot, and despite KDE being my overall prefered I find it weirdly unstable at times [17:30] Which might be because I install it over the top of a Gnome install? *shrugs* [17:30] jak: I agree, usually kde updates brings new unstable thing and leaves older ones still unstable [17:30] what do i click to automatically include someones nick in my response? just curious [17:30] i am new to IRC [17:30] WilliamBuell: use tab key autocompletion [17:30] aha [17:30] gtozzi: hey, great it works\ [17:30] ha ha [17:31] like linux shell [17:31] Hi guys, I've got a question - have encrypted home partition, and need to mount it before KDE starts. Before upgrade to karmic koala I had a boot script, which simply did read password. But now, read command seem to be ignored on boot. Did any of you encountered similar problem? [17:32] pls halp!!cant loginto system from cold boot. [17:33] cichy: I've disabled kdm autostart in init.d. I run a script in place that asks for my encrypted home password then launchs kdm === dean is now known as Guest89455 [17:34] cichy: maybe it's not a clean solution, but it works for me [17:34] gtozzi: ok - thanks for the hint - I will try it :) === Guest89455 is now known as akajunior [17:34] gtozzi: cant loginto system from cold boot. [17:35] kankan_: what's the error message? [17:36] Hallo,all . i need a nice music mixer , i mean some program to make music to mix edit and add tracks or something like that . i used to work with windows and now iam abit lost here . i will be thankfull for any help here or in private msg .thnx again [17:36] gtozzi: no error message.only the screen gets blank and irresponsive. [17:36] akajunior: use audacious [17:36] kankan_: try pressing ctrl+alt+backspace [17:37] kankan_: looks like a xorg misconfiguration issue [17:37] thnx allot [17:37] gtozzi: it happens only when login from cold boot.i log into system from recovery mode. [17:37] then its all fine. [17:38] gtozzi: press when?in time of booting? [17:38] kankan_: when you are in front of black screen, it should kill xorg and give you a text console [17:39] should i have to enable the the key combination? [17:39] its not enabled right now. [17:39] Again another question .. iam stuck with german fonts :D how can i change the language ..i installed english one but my keybord is still not getting it .. [17:40] where should i found? [17:40] kankan_: it should be enabled by default [17:40] gtozzi: I believe it's not [17:40] Tm_T: how to enable it pls? [17:40] !dontzap | kankan_ [17:40] kankan_: To re-enable the Ctrl-Alt-Backspace combination that restarts your X server see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/DontZap [17:41] keffie_jayx: try ctrl+alt+f1 instead [17:41] kankan_: try ctrl+alt+f1 instead [17:42] Does anyone know how to get firefox to handle downloads from getdeb? [17:42] kankan_: then kill xorg and investigate in /var/log/xorg-something.log for what happened [17:47] hi all [17:47] hi noren [17:47] noren: hi [17:48] any idea how to list all the less often used apps [17:49] noren: no, but it's a very interesting question [17:50] yes cause i experiment a lot by installing many app but havent kept a track of all that...... now how can i find them to remove them [17:51] juego de boxeo online http://www.kobox.org/kobox-fande-Nourine.html [17:51] bazhang, are u there [17:52] noren, hi [17:52] damn, damn, damn [17:52] i needed some suggestion regarding [17:52] any idea how to list all the less often used apps [17:52] even using the alternate CD the installation process doesn't sees all my hard drives [17:53] gtozzi, use fdisk -l [17:53] they are listed correctly by fdisk -l but not on the partition manager [17:53] are u using gparted [17:54] i'm using thext-based install and the builtin part. manager [17:54] i've tried graphical install before with same results [17:55] bazhang, any idea how to list all the less often used apps [17:55] noren, hang on a second, checking someone's lspci [17:55] gtozzi, no idea never installed with multiple harddisk here [17:55] bazhang, ok [17:56] hi [17:56] hi | NSsmiles [17:57] is there a way to manually create them from console then tell the text install to resume? [17:57] i have gone through the steps to install wine and itunes...error itunes could not be configures...auto run is turned off [17:58] can someone resolve this [17:58] NSsmiles, y not use Rhythmbox its itunes alternative in ubuntu [17:59] i tried but it doesn't show the ipod [17:59] but i could try again [17:59] gtozzi, i wud suggest to do a minimal install and then reconfigure [17:59] NSsmiles, did u get the Rythmbox plugin for ipod [18:00] hey i was told that kubuntu 9.10 comes with a game moduler but icant find it =[ [18:00] no i didn't get the plugin [18:01] NSsmiles, go to the Rhtymbox EDIT option and activate the plugin [18:02] noren: I'm trying to install on a folder of the only hard drive it can see, then I'll move my root partition later [18:03] ok thanks noren [18:04] gtozzi, u can try that but i guess u wud have to reconfigure the grub boot loader after that [18:04] noren: i dont' fear grub :P [18:05] Applications that normaly prompts for superuser passwords in my Kubuntu 9.10 don't do that anymore. Why is that and how can I adjust this? [18:05] NSsmiles, do tell if it worked as i hav not tried as i dont have ipod [18:05] K350, what applications [18:05] noren: synaptic for instance. [18:06] noren: and several apps in systemsettings [18:06] K350, if your username is having the sudo power it wont [18:07] i did a frest install of kubuntu 9.10 now i can't seem to get Rhythmbox [18:07] K350, check in the kuser settings [18:07] fresh* [18:07] NSsmiles, sudo apt-get install Rhythmbox [18:08] I can add my True Type fonts, but how do I add OpenType fonts? [18:08] noren: Even if you're in teh sudoerlist you're still required to enter the password. [18:08] noren: about your previous questions, maybe checking the atime of the files in the /usr/bin folder should be a solution [18:09] says couldn't find package [18:09] gtozzi: great idea! [18:09] gtozzi, ya it might be lemme check [18:10] hey i was told that kubuntu 9.10 comes with a game moduler but icant find it =[ [18:11] try NSsmiles sudo apt-get install rhythmbox [18:11] noren: what does rythhmbox do,... a game [18:12] there is a download page for Rhythmbox but not sure what to open it with [18:12] sudo apt-get install rhythmbox....says couldn't find package [18:13] i dont mean to be pushy but ive ben here for a while and have received no help at all [18:13] WilliamBuell, its a music application client just like amarok but for gnome [18:13] antman91: sorry, can't help [18:14] NSsmiles, i think we are doing a typo here , just use the packagemanger [18:14] antman91, sorry but we cud only help if we know some sort of solution for that [18:15] hay all, looking for some ideas. I keep running e2fsck on a hdd and keep getting about 5 errors, any ideas on how to force the fixes? [18:15] can no one help or just you?? i really need this game modeler [18:15] i tried packagemanager first but didnt see it on the list [18:15] ok [18:16] shadowhywind: make a backup and format it :) [18:16] NSsmiles, thats strange [18:16] !ipod [18:16] For information on how to sync and add tracks to your iPod, see the guide at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IPodHowto - For the iPhone and the iPod Touch, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PortableDevices/iPhone - See !RockBox for information on liberating your iPod [18:16] !ipod | NSsmiles [18:16] shadowhywind: i suggest also to check for bad clusters before (using badblocks) [18:16] NSsmiles: please see above [18:16] ok [18:17] gtozzi: how would I check for bad clusters? [18:17] shadowhywind: man badblocks [18:17] so; unfortunately the xrandr does not help, or maybe I am too dumb....so.....I think that somehow I will have to backup my files and reinstall.....thx for help anyways === jeremy is now known as stepstools [18:18] Urrghs, ?? [18:18] Urrghs: maybe you should try to just purge and reinstall xorg before [18:18] gtozzi: so just to make sure, all i have to do is, badblocks /dev/sdb1 ? [18:18] is there a good KDE FTP Client alternative to filezilla with similar functions ? [18:19] purge and reinstall Xorg? [18:19] how this? [18:19] eshat i use gftp [18:20] shadowhywind: this is to check your hard drive. make a backup before. the badblocks -fw mode is more efficient, but IT WILL DESTROY ALL YOUR DATA [18:20] noren: but it's GTK ! I want somthing in qt or with a few dependecies [18:20] gtozzi: thanks [18:20] !ftp [18:20] FTP clients: Nautilus (Places -> Connect to server), gFTP, FileZilla (for !GNOME); Konqueror, Kasablanca, KFTPGrabber (for !KDE); FireFTP (for Firefox); ftp, lftp (for !cli) - See also !FTPd [18:20] noren: ih it is just 5 MB, I ll install gftp [18:21] eshat, its very light ftp client [18:21] noren: thanks, that helps [18:21] eshat: well, if you are on KDE, you already have Konqueror [18:21] eshat, ur welcome [18:22] i need to learn more about full backup restore of ubuntu. i found one long command which zips entire system into a tar... but has error msg at end [18:22] shadowhywind: you'r welcome [18:23] and i cannot afford to try a restore from it... and i dont know how to verify a tar [18:23] Tm_T: but konqueror can not open php files, I get errors when starting kate. same with dolphin... I have to drag and drop in splitwindows mode [18:23] hmm, weird, should work [18:23] i used synaptic to install a simple backup/restore suite with a gui, so i will experiment with that today later i think [18:24] WilliamBuell: I've read about a "live" linux disk image solution but I don't remember it's name [18:24] plus the tar backup command puts the tar in HOME, and it was 2.5 gig... so i worry how i would do complete backup if the size exceeds capacity of HOME [18:25] i usually use rsync to copy everything to another hard disk [18:25] rsync takes long the first time and less time thereafter since it only has to write changes [18:25] WilliamBuell: you can put the tar file whenever you want, even pipe it through ssh to a remote host [18:25] i have dvd that will write to 8 gig rewriteable disk, and i experimented with that, was able to delete old files, doesnt seem to need reformat [18:25] gtozzi: thanks, sounds like something to investigate [18:26] i would like to find tutorial for complete system tar backup that pipes it to the dvd or a mem stick [18:26] i think there are 65 gig mem sticks, and that would hold me for a long time [18:26] and if i exceeded that, i could do backups in stages/chunks/parts [18:26] except flash media dies after so many writes [18:27] WilliamBuell: for the mem stick, just mount it (i.e. on /mnt/bckstick) then tar f /mnt/bckstick/.tar [18:28] ciao! [18:28] valentina: ciao / hi! [18:28] except i am such a novice, i need the entire command spelled out for me, so i can make sense of it [18:28] but i can google lots and perhaps find a tutorial [18:29] WilliamBuell: man tar, you'll find everything you need [18:30] do any of you have 9.10 and Rhythmbox [18:31] hi [18:31] !hi | user1_ [18:31] user1_: Hi!

I'm #kubuntu's favorite infobot, you can search my brain yourself at http://ubottu.com/factoids.cgi - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots [18:33] user1_, nevermind it happend with me also wen i was new here [18:34] NSsmiles, did the link did not helped [18:34] !package [18:34] You can browse and search for Ubuntu packages using !Synaptic, !Adept, "apt-cache search ", or online at http://packages.ubuntu.com - Ubuntu has about 20000 packages available, so please *search* for an official package before installing things in awkward ways! [18:35] oh, so ubottu is a bot! ha ha [18:36] My technique is to blog about my latest project at wordpress to document my notes, suggestions, problems solutions, so I just started one for backup restore http://wp.me/pBlI9-km [18:36] i am new [18:36] user1_, we were all new someday !! :) [18:36] i am new noren [18:36] WilliamBuell, whats ur prob ???? [18:37] and whenever I find a useful link for that project , such as backup, then I bookmark it at http://delicious.com/billbuell so it has tags and others can view if they find useful [18:37] i am going to practice, research ways for me to do complete system backups [18:37] this is my first month with ubuntu [18:37] ok noren [18:37] WilliamBuell, ok [18:38] any speak spanish?? [18:38] user1_, do u have any prob this is a support channel [18:38] but wordpress and delicious are great techniques to document every step i do, from wubi installs, to pure ubuntu, to wifi adaptor, ethernet, backup, restore, etc etc [18:38] user1_, | !sp [18:38] user1_, | !es [18:38] i hope my comments are acceptible in this channel as being on topic [18:38] !sp [18:38] Sorry, I don't know anything about sp [18:39] i mean, i do want to be compliant [18:39] !es [18:39] En la mayoría de canales Ubuntu se comunica en inglés.

[18:41] it wasnt too active, but, I posted my questions and scripts as a blog, and posted the link, so that if someone comes by one hour later, and sees my post, they can visit link and see my issues [18:41] except i believe everything i am posting is right on topic, since it is ubuntu related [18:41] Synaptic and other applications that use to prompt me for the password don't do that anymore. Why is that and what can I do to adjust this? [18:42] Or , where do I adjust this? [18:42] someone asked about that password issue yesterday [18:42] there was some package they were using, that in turn used a package that turned password options on and off [18:42] K350, did u see the kuser [18:42] its in my log somewhere i am sure [18:44] noren: If I saw the kuser? [18:44] i found the discussion of package kit in my log [18:47] packagekit uses PolicyKit which has options to increase or decrease password prompting [18:47] thats what i found in my log from yesterday [18:49] finally, my desktop is up and unning with kubuntu, noew i have to setup raid and migrate to main hard drivers [18:50] gtozzi: grats!

It can also be used as extra memory if you don't have enough. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq for more info [19:05] regarding swap, when I did my first disk partition format to do my first ubuntu install, I used Gnome partition, with little documentation, and it took me a while to figure out i need "/" (root) ext3, unnamed format type SWAP-FILE, and the rest as /home [19:05] I didnt know what to put for file size allocations, so i guest 512 for root and swap, and got error message, too small, so i increased to 5000, just guessing, and that worked [19:06] it is a 280 gig drive on my old Gateway tower [19:07] WilliamBuell, ur swap space should be double than ur physical memory [19:08] i am too much novice to really understand, but i will post that to my notes [19:08] makes sense though, so i just need to find what my physical memory is [19:08] WilliamBuell, how much ram does ur system has [19:09] if i was a rocket scientist, i would know which button to click to get that answer [19:09] thats how new i am [19:09] ok then use can use app like top or htop [19:09] and, since i got this one and only machine working, i figure i will not have chance to change swap and root until and unless i have disaster and have to reinstall [19:10] WilliamBuell: cat /proc/meminfo [19:10] ok i shall try that gtozzi [19:11] gtozzi: memtotal 1025464 kb [19:12] WilliamBuell: so you need at least 2GB of swap [19:12] but it is hard for me to understand such numbers, or translate them into the numbers that the partition software would expece [19:12] so i gave the partition software 5000, what does that translate to? [19:12] i know the ubuntu is working now ok for days [19:12] WilliamBuell: anyway in my experience, if you don't want to use the hibernate function you can go with much less swap without any problem [19:13] i gave it 512 and it said TOO SMALL, i gave it 5000 for root and 5000 for swap, and it worked [19:13] WilliamBuell: 5000 should be approx 5GB [19:13] and i was staying up all night, doing a guessing game, with 20 attempts to install, so i just wanted to see it work [19:13] so 5000 is plenty for my machine for root and swap [19:13] WilliamBuell: just check SwapTotal in meminfo to be sure [19:13] only 5gb for root [19:14] and i guess u must be having /home directory also same in that [19:14] swaptotal 4883720 kb [19:14] so, that looks close to the 5 gig you said, no? [19:14] WilliamBuell: yep [19:14] WOW, i lucked out in my guesses [19:14] WilliamBuell, u wil face prob when ur home partition starts growing [19:15] WilliamBuell: you got even more swap than you need :P [19:15] i have been with windows since 1985, and now i am blown away by speed and ease of ubuntu [19:15] well gtozzi swap must be like money and whiskey, cant ever have TOO Much [19:15] so, i should be ok [19:15] WilliamBuell: ROTFL [19:16] except, i should say i never touch drop of alcohol, but it is funny old saying/joke [19:16] WilliamBuell, i guess your next project should be to get ur home folder to a separate partion [19:16] partition [19:16] oh, i did 3 partitions [19:16] one they call root but the name is just "/" [19:17] next is no name with file type swap-file [19:17] and third partition was "/home" [19:17] so, i must have home in its own partition [19:17] no? [19:17] WilliamBuell: yep [19:17] yes u are [19:18] wow, it took me HOURS to guess how that works,... but then i blog each step in my wordpress so if i need to do it again, it is right there, including all my mistakes,... so it can help other newbies [19:18] i found one totally free pdf book on introductory Ubuntu, and it is very helpful, i am slowly reading it [19:19] i want to become fluent in Ubuntu because i am so sick and tired of microsoft windows nonsense, year after year [19:19] one article suggested that the threat of Ubuntu forced Microsoft to speed up release of Windows 7 [19:19] WilliamBuell: this is a support channel. think you could head over to #ubuntu-offtopic or #kubuntu-offtopic?

[21:15] Hetman: rtfm [21:15] gtozzi: readed manual, looking on google . [21:15] I solved it on my rig by uninstalling pulseaudio, but I won't recommend it, since it might produce some odd behaviour [21:16] Hetman: I have pulseadio as lowest priority in system settings > multemedia, and no problems [21:16] !rtfm | gtozzi [21:16] gtozzi: Acronyms or statements like noob, jfgi, stfu, or rtfm are not welcome in this channel. Period. [21:17] pulseaudio is not included in kubuntu [21:17] removing it should not break things in kubuntu [21:17] breaking things in ubuntu by removing pulseaudio is, however, perfectly reasonable since upstream gnome loves pulseaudio === oldbstrd is now known as rstob911 === magical_trevsky is now known as magical [21:27] hello [21:28] lo [21:28] hi WaY [21:28] anybody knows a good wifi network manager appart from wicd and network-manager?

Konqueror has Number of items also, I was trying to avoid needing to click on Properties for each and every flolder. [22:00] drew3-live: oh, you're talking about folders, not files... [22:00] yep. [22:01] drew3-live: yes, I miss that too sometimes. but since it needs to calculate the folder size recursively, which can be heavy on the disk, they don't do it unless u ask for it (properties) [22:02] hello people [22:02] I suffer from a bad habbit of using the name file, and not folder, sorry. (ordirectory) [22:03] drew3-live: they are different things so it's important :-) [22:03] there are some girl here? [22:03] yes [22:03] why do you ask?

[22:04] rotfl [22:04] hehehe [22:06] I just noticed the 'expandable folders' option in dolphin - how convenient! [22:11] In the few weeks I have been using Dolphin, I like it, except for the Size=Items and not Size=MB-KB. [22:12] I'm guessing that is a Distro choice of K-X-or U-buntu [22:13] drew3-live: I guess you can configure it to tell size in kb/mb, but i don't know how [22:13] I wish I did, it would make my current task simplier. [22:14] Certainly ther is a text page someplace to configure it. O well, thanks for looking, [22:14] I feel dolphin is not entirely mature. there's always little things that are missing or get in the way, though I can't always put my finger on it. [22:14] fix it? [22:15] I think I found one. [22:15] i know youve been having fun patching things lately [22:15] well yeah :-) [22:15] is it kde? [22:15] yes [22:16] although, they are more design choices than actual bugs, and as such much harder, if at all possible, to change [22:17] maco: so how come isn't it dolKin? quite an exception for such a prominent app [22:18] kde has moved away from the K thing with KDE4 [22:18] maKo [22:18] im not benjamin! [22:18] unfortunately that's too much like the other MaCO [22:20] well when I finish up with kubuntu bugs, maybe I'll get back to them. had an unpleasant experience there, and didn't go back [22:21] they're not as welcoming as you guys :-) [22:22] ah yeah.... [22:22] one of the women in kubuntu flamed one of the guys in kde when he gave a useless reject message to one of my patches [22:22] something like "rejected. go figure out why" [22:22] yeah, something similar [22:24] I did a couple days work fixing things, and uploaded patches, no one as much as looked at it for 3 months, and then it was just closed and ignored because one of their devs fixed (after I did) a couple of the bunch of bugs, and they just ignored the rest. duplicate work in general, and waste of time for me. didn't patch anything since. [22:26] their loss :-) [22:30] Any good vector programs for icons/layouts etc, other than inkscape. [22:44] Applications such as synaptic and others that use to prompt for the password don't do that here anymore. What can I do about that. Anyone?

[23:00] bah [23:01] hello, i've got a little problem I updated ubuntu, installed vmware and i think one of those patched my kernel then a couple weeks later i restarted my machine and since then grub no longer finds my hard drive when booting [23:02] Goodevening people, I just succesfully installed Kubuntu 9.10 and it looks good but i how ever am getting a buzzing sounds constantly from my speakers.. i've tried googling for a bit but no one seem to have a concrete answer anyone in here might know what to do? [23:07] hello [23:22] have you tried removing pulseaudio? [23:29] how do I get grip installed? [23:30] hello [23:30] have any of you ever installed TVU on Linux before ? [23:32] how do i get rid of "kick-off" [23:33] have any of you ever installed TVU on Linux before ? [23:33] me? [23:36] Goodevening once again :) [23:38] Could someone tell me how do i remove PulseAudio? [23:38] kpackage manager [23:40] yeah when i try that i get an error saying it can't be removed because of kde run time or something like that.. sorry for bain vage but im very new to this [23:41] how do i move things around on the panel [23:41] *facepalm* [23:42] I am beginning to hate kde [23:44] !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! [23:44] anyone???????????? [23:44] kcj1993: repeat.. I just logged in... [23:45] ok [23:46] I need to know how to move things around on the panel [23:46] in kde [23:46] you mean the different boxes? [23:47] on the bottom panel or the "screen"/ Desktop itself? [23:47] on [23:47] no [23:48] the "widgets" on the bottom panel itself [23:48] i don't know how to move them [23:48] it making me very angry [23:50] angry enough to log back into gnome and uninstall kde [23:51] looks like if you point at the panel and right mouse click .. choose Panel Options then choose panel settings.. once the settings bar is displayed point at one of the icons you want to move and you'll see what might look like a blue compas pointer cross thingy.. that's the indication you can move the icon or group of icons [23:51] Once done don't forget to lock the panel to prevent additional/accidental movement. [23:52] Wow, KDE epic fail, all that just to move something. [23:52] I'd like to know how to add programs to my "Favorits" section of the kmenu [23:52] ah [23:52] all better [23:53] how do i get rid of kick-off? [23:53] kcj1993: can you help with my frustration? [23:53] kcj1993: what's kick off? [23:53] the main menu [23:53] whats your issue? [23:54] the k menu icon on the bottom left? the one that show's the menu? .. my issue .. look up a few lines. [23:55] yes thats what i mean the thing that shows up when you click the "k" [23:55] it's called kick-off [23:55] how can I detect which ports are open? [23:55] but i want the old menu that kde 3 has [23:56] do the same thing you did to move stuff except when pointing at the "K" right mouse click and choose Remove from panel [23:58] kcj1993: you can right mouse click the panel "in edit mode" and add a widgit.. in the list there is what appears to be an option for the classic menu [23:58] Izinucs, thanks i found the old menu, what was your problem, i only logged in a few mins ago. [23:59] I'd like to know how to add program launchers to my "Favorite" menu.. the primary menu shown when you click the 'K' [23:59] sorry i dont know how to do that
