| Thundercross | Thank you | 00:12 |
| Thundercross | Alright. I didn't get any menu when I tried to reconfigure my xorg-conf. | 00:25 |
| Thundercross | And when I tried to restart it, I got a message: | 00:25 |
| Thundercross | kdm start/running, process 1941 | 00:25 |
| Thundercross | I tried to mention that I'm in textmode for this, but I got yanked away from the computer at the time. | 00:26 |

| jacquesdupontd | hi everybody | 01:15 |
| cuznt | /boot/grub/menu.lst i can not find it in 9.10 | 01:16 |
| Thundercross | It didn't work. | 01:16 |
| cuznt | any reason? | 01:16 |
| Daskreech | Thundercross: What's the issue? | 01:17 |
| === dione is now known as DioneMunir | ||
| Thundercross | Ever since I upgraded to 9.10, I've been stuck in textmode. I just load Kubuntu, and it takes me straight to terminal mode. | 01:19 |
| Daskreech | Thundercross: KDM doesn't load? | 01:19 |
| Thundercross | And I can't get into KDE, no matter what I try (not that there's a lot of things I know to try). | 01:19 |
| Thundercross | It doesn't | 01:20 |
| Daskreech | Does X work? | 01:20 |
| Daskreech | Thundercross: You are on the machine now? | 01:20 |
| bodom | cuznt: is grub installed? :) | 01:20 |
| Thundercross | I'm the machine, and I'm using Puppy Linux | 01:25 |
| Thundercross | I have only one machine that can be used at all. | 01:26 |
| Thundercross | I don't think X works. | 01:26 |
| === starcraft is now known as starcraftman | ||
| Daskreech | Thundercross: can you run startx and tell me what that does | 01:26 |
| Thundercross | I think I should save this Puppy Linux session so I can come back a little bit sooner. | 01:27 |
| Daskreech | Thundercross: ok let me be clear | 01:27 |
| Thundercross | So I just type "startx"? | 01:27 |
| Daskreech | you are currently talking to me on the computer that has the problems? | 01:27 |
| Thundercross | Yeah, but I'm on Puppy Linux | 01:28 |
| Thundercross | So I'm gonna have to log off in order to try it | 01:28 |
| Daskreech | Ok can the computer connect to the internet without the GUI ? | 01:28 |
| Thundercross | Yes | 01:28 |
| Daskreech | Sweet grab a paper and write this down | 01:28 |
| Daskreech | When you login on the command line run this | 01:29 |
| Daskreech | sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install irssi | 01:29 |
| cuznt | how could grub NOT be installed? | 01:29 |
| Daskreech | then when it's done type irssi -c irc.ubuntu.com | 01:29 |
| cuznt | i have grub.cfg | 01:29 |
| Daskreech | when you are logged in there /join #kubuntu should join you here and we can do this a lot faster | 01:30 |
| Daskreech | cuznt: It was asked to not be installed or explictly uninstalled | 01:30 |
| Thundercross | Alright. | 01:30 |
| Daskreech | Quite a few reasons but point is if you want grub then install it | 01:30 |
| cuznt | in 9.10? | 01:30 |
| Daskreech | cuznt: Sure | 01:31 |
| cuznt | ah | 01:31 |
| jacquesdupontd | hey | 01:31 |
| jacquesdupontd | i would like to record my desktop | 01:31 |
| jacquesdupontd | and i treid to use record my desktop but it doesn't seems to support well the twin view witth compiz but i have a really really fast computer | 01:32 |
| jacquesdupontd | so it should work ok | 01:32 |
| jacquesdupontd | do someone has a desktop recorder to advice me ? | 01:32 |
| cuznt | i do not quite understand.. i have a fellow in irc.etree who is into linux and i am trying to recover my winxp partition.. and he asked me for /boot/grub/menu.lst | 01:32 |
| maco | cuznt: its /boot/grub/grub.cfg then | 01:33 |
| maco | cuznt: you're using grub2, he's thinking of grub1 | 01:33 |
| cuznt | ah thank you | 01:33 |
| cuznt | i kind of thought that | 01:33 |
| maco | cuznt: tell him that, please, because the syntax changed and he may be a bit confused by it | 01:33 |
| cuznt | i am right now tnx | 01:34 |
| jacquesdupontd | so anybody ? | 01:34 |
| jacquesdupontd | can't we record desktop with vlc for example ? | 01:34 |
| Thundercross | Okay. I have something I need to take care of soon, but I'll idle here. | 01:34 |
| === starcraftman is now known as starcraft | ||
| Daskreech | jacquesdupontd: I cant say with any kind of definitive say since I've never recorded my desktop but I know that most of the desktop recorindg stuff on Linux isn't met with praise for things like that | 01:35 |
| Daskreech | jacquesdupontd: Ah vlc that might be an option | 01:36 |
| jacquesdupontd | yeah | 01:38 |
| jacquesdupontd | but for now | 01:38 |
| jacquesdupontd | i'm trying gtk-recordmydesktop and it's actually recording | 01:39 |
| jacquesdupontd | it seems better to set options and everything | 01:39 |
| jacquesdupontd | we gonna see | 01:39 |
| jacquesdupontd | but the problem is surely the dual screen | 01:39 |

| Daskreech | nicklas_: you are packaging it? | 01:44 |
| nicklas_ | no, but i could if i learn how | 01:45 |
| nicklas_ | its hard? | 01:45 |
| Daskreech | nicklas_: Not that hard | 01:46 |
| Daskreech | Just sometimes a little frustrating :) | 01:47 |
| Daskreech | Want to try? | 01:47 |
| nicklas_ | tomorrow :-) too late here now | 01:47 |
| nicklas_ | where is that guide for packaging in ubuntu? | 01:47 |
| Daskreech | nicklas_: Ok well when you are ready join #kubuntu-devel and declare yourself as a Tomelord minon | 01:47 |
| Daskreech | Timelord | 01:48 |
| nicklas_ | lol ok :-) | 01:48 |
| Daskreech | you can jump in and do it now and get someone's e-mail address to shoot things at | 01:48 |
| Daskreech | You won't do any work just so you have a contact | 01:48 |
| nicklas_ | ok | 01:49 |
| nicklas_ | but that guide has all you need? | 01:54 |
| Daskreech | Just about | 01:55 |
| Daskreech | #kubuntu-devel will help you out with issues | 01:55 |
| Daskreech | It's the super cover guide | 01:58 |
| cuznt | is the a # for peeps who messed up their partition and now winxp will not boot? | 01:59 |
| Daskreech | !grub | 01:59 |
| ubottu | grub is the default boot manager for Ubuntu releases before Karmic (9.10). Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto - See !grub2 for Karmic onwards. | 01:59 |

| Thundercross | Okay. I'm back. And I'm on irssi. But I'm not sure how I'm gonna be able to get to the terminal without closing out of it. | 02:06 |
| Thundercross | Daskreech: are you there? | 02:08 |
| Daskreech | Thundercross: Press alt+2 | 02:08 |
| Daskreech | Thundercross: ahd then alt+1 | 02:09 |
| Thundercross | Ah, okay | 02:09 |
| Daskreech | Thundercross: Got it? | 02:09 |
| Daskreech | you can login on alt+2 or 3 or 4 or 5 etc | 02:10 |
| Daskreech | X turns up on Alt+7 | 02:10 |
| Daskreech | Let me know when you are ready | 02:10 |
| Thundercross | I only get alt+1 and alt+2 | 02:10 |
| Daskreech | You should have alt+3 as well | 02:10 |
| Thundercross | alt+1 takes me to the server window and alt+2 brings me back here. | 02:10 |
| Thundercross | I don't | 02:10 |
| Daskreech | Ah | 02:10 |
| Daskreech | What does it give you? | 02:11 |
| Thundercross | Nothing happens when I alt+3 | 02:11 |
| Daskreech | Thundercross: Right Ha ha | 02:11 |
| Daskreech | Thundercross: Sorry alt+Right Arrow | 02:11 |
| Daskreech | Then alt+Left arrow | 02:11 |
| Thundercross | Oh, okay | 02:12 |
| Daskreech | ok let me know when you are ready | 02:12 |
| Thundercross | I'm ready. | 02:12 |
| Daskreech | ok log in to the second terminal and run this command sudo apt-get install pastebinit | 02:13 |
| Thundercross | Woah. Workspaces on textmode. My mind is mildly blown | 02:13 |
| Daskreech | Then run startx | 02:13 |
| Daskreech | Thundercross: Where do you think the GUI got it from? :) | 02:13 |
| Thundercross | I see | 02:13 |
| Daskreech | Thundercross: Oh if X starts press alt+ctrl+1 to get back here | 02:14 |
| Thundercross | Fatal server error: no screens found | 02:15 |
| Daskreech | Ok nice | 02:15 |
| Thundercross | I'm actually on tty2, btw | 02:16 |

| Thundercross | Isn't there some sort of web browser that works entirely on text? | 02:19 |
| Daskreech | Thundercross: w3m | 02:21 |
| Thundercross | Huh? | 02:22 |
| Daskreech | Thundercross: Q to quit out of it | 02:22 |
| Daskreech | Thundercross: w3m www.google.com | 02:22 |
| Thundercross | Oh, thanks. | 02:22 |
| Daskreech | Thundercross: I Guess you have no /etc/X11/xorg.conf ? | 02:22 |
| Thundercross | I thought I did. | 02:26 |
| Thundercross | I guess it's more along the lines of resetting it when I upgraded to Karmic | 02:26 |
| Daskreech | Thundercross: pastebinit /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 02:26 |
| Thundercross | Alright. | 02:27 |
| Thundercross | It gave me a url | 02:27 |
| Daskreech | Give it back to me | 02:29 |
| Thundercross | http://pastebin.com/f17c082be | 02:30 |
| Thundercross | It seems to be the text of xorg.conf | 02:31 |
| Daskreech | it is | 02:31 |
| Daskreech | Pastebinit allows you to pastebin text from the command line so you can get help :) | 02:31 |
| Daskreech | What is your video card if you know | 02:32 |
| Thundercross | A Geforce 7600 | 02:32 |
| Daskreech | ok did you have any special drivers installed before? | 02:32 |
| Thundercross | Just the proprietary drivers | 02:32 |
| Daskreech | jacquesdupontd: hows it going? | 02:33 |
| Daskreech | Thundercross: reinstall them then | 02:33 |
| Thundercross | Okay, how do I do that from textmode? | 02:33 |
| Daskreech | sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx then press tab twice. Choose the one you had installed before | 02:34 |
| Daskreech | Thundercross: I think they all support your card though | 02:35 |
| Thundercross | It's not giving me a menu, but a list of 3 options. | 02:35 |
| Thundercross | I'll try the latest one. | 02:36 |
| Daskreech | Thundercross: It won't give you a menu that's the options available | 02:36 |
| Daskreech | !tab | Thundercross | 02:36 |
| ubottu | Thundercross: You can use your <tab> key for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line. | 02:36 |
| Thundercross | Okay. It said I already have the latest one. | 02:38 |
| Thundercross | It mentioned something about a manual install | 02:39 |
| Daskreech | ok | 02:39 |
| Daskreech | run sudo nvidia-xconfig | 02:40 |
| Thundercross | Data incomplete in xorg.conf | 02:40 |
| Daskreech | ha funny | 02:40 |
| Thundercross | Device section "Configured Video Device" must have a driver line. | 02:41 |
| Thundercross | I'm thinking this is my problem. | 02:41 |
| Scunizi | Thundercross: I just logged on.. are you trying to install the nvidia driver downloaded from the nvidia site? | 02:41 |
| Thundercross | I think it's a problem with my xorg.conf | 02:42 |
| Scunizi | Thundercross: there is no xorg.conf anymore unless you manually created one... | 02:42 |
| Daskreech | Scunizi: There is one. it's basic defalts | 02:42 |
| Thundercross | I installed something on Windows to read my Linux partitions, and I found some incomplete husk of a xorg.conf | 02:42 |
| Scunizi | Daskreech: ok.. yea.. it's there. but empty | 02:42 |
| Daskreech | Thundercross: can you do an ls of /etc/X11 and tell me if ther are multiple xorg.conf files there ? | 02:43 |
| Thundercross | There are 6 files that start with xorg.conf | 02:43 |
| Daskreech | Thundercross: what is the newest one? | 02:44 |
| Daskreech | Thundercross: ls -l should show you the dates | 02:44 |
| Thundercross | xorg.conf without anything after it. Dated today | 02:45 |
| Scunizi | Daskreech: what's happening..? kernel upgrade break a manually installed nvidia binary? | 02:45 |
| Daskreech | or ls -t | 02:45 |
| Daskreech | Thundercross: The one after that | 02:45 |
| Daskreech | Scunizi: upgrading to Koala hosed X | 02:45 |
| Thundercross | The next latest is xorg.conf.20090202015149 | 02:45 |
| Thundercross | Dated February 2nd | 02:45 |
| Scunizi | Daskreech: and was an nvidia binary from their site installed on Jaunty? | 02:46 |
| Daskreech | Woah that's a long time ago | 02:46 |
| Daskreech | Thundercross: pastebinit | 02:46 |
| Thundercross | Oh, wait. It's not being sorted by date | 02:46 |
| Daskreech | Thundercross: You can use tab to autocomplete the names btw so you don't have to type it | 02:46 |
| Daskreech | Thundercross: ls -t | 02:46 |
| Daskreech | Thundercross: ls -lt | 02:47 |
| Daskreech | Scunizi: No clue I think that it's the nvidia package | 02:47 |
| Thundercross | xorg.conf xorg.conf.dist-upgrade-200910300040 is dated October 30th | 02:48 |
| Scunizi | Daskreech: most likely.. if the binary driver was installed on jaunty then the upgrade would have broke it because of the kernel upgrade.. all that would be necessary is to re-install the binary driver to fix.. no need to mess with xrandr or xorg.. the fresh install will fill it all.. (wow that rhymed) | 02:48 |
| Daskreech | Thundercross: ah excellent :) | 02:48 |
| Daskreech | Thundercross:sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.irchelp | 02:49 |
| Thundercross | I remember upgrading to 9.10 on the day it came out. I forgot the day of the month that was. | 02:49 |
| Scunizi | If it was the binary driver, reinstallation will setup the necessary kernel modules to make it work.. where redoing an older xorg won't | 02:50 |
| Daskreech | Thundercross: then sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf.dist-upgrade-200910300040 /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 02:50 |
| Daskreech | Scunizi: he did reinstall it said newest version. Course that doesn't mean the modules loaded | 02:50 |
| Daskreech | but the error he's getting is No Screens found | 02:51 |
| Daskreech | Assuming that Thundercross is a he | 02:51 |
| Thundercross | I am a he | 02:51 |
| Scunizi | Daskreech: reinstall from the hardware drivers option in the menu's? or by downloading the binary from nvidia? | 02:51 |
| Thundercross | I'm not sure this version of xorg.conf is good either. | 02:52 |
| Daskreech | Scunizi: reinstall but sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-185 | 02:52 |
| gorgonzola | hello. anyone knows if it possible to have a video chat through msn with kopete? | 02:52 |
| Daskreech | Thundercross: Well sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade then | 02:52 |
| Daskreech | gorgonzola: no try kmess | 02:52 |
| Daskreech | Or amsn | 02:52 |
| Scunizi | Daskreech: that would be the repo version.. the 185 driver is buggy anyway.. | 02:52 |
| Scunizi | gorgonzola: or emesen | 02:52 |
| Daskreech | Yeah they all are | 02:53 |
| * Thundercross resists urge to sudo apt-get install kmess | 02:53 | |
| Scunizi | Daskreech: the latest 190 seems to rip pretty good. | 02:53 |
| Thundercross | I didn't see a 190 on my options of compatible drivers | 02:53 |
| Scunizi | Thundercross: you won't unless you get it from nvidia | 02:53 |
| Daskreech | I think that dropped support for his card | 02:53 |
| Scunizi | Daskreech: which card? | 02:54 |
| Daskreech | 7600 | 02:54 |
| Scunizi | I'll look but I think it'll work fine.. | 02:54 |
| Thundercross | I'm seeing no improvement. | 02:54 |
| Daskreech | Thundercross: you did the sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade ? | 02:55 |
| Thundercross | That xorg.conf that you told me to put in it's place is from after the 9.10 upgrade, isn't it? | 02:55 |
| Thundercross | I'll try that next. | 02:55 |
| Daskreech | Thundercross: No it's from before | 02:56 |
| Thundercross | It's dated October 30th | 02:56 |
| Daskreech | Yeah | 02:56 |
| Thundercross | Didn't 9.10 come out on the 22nd or something? | 02:56 |
| Daskreech | Last Thursday of the month | 02:56 |
| Daskreech | whichever one that is | 02:56 |
| Thundercross | 29th | 02:57 |
| Daskreech | 22nd doesn't sound right that's 8 days before the end of the month so there must be a thursday after that | 02:57 |
| Scunizi | 7600 is supported by the latest driver.. | 02:57 |
| Thundercross | And I downloaded it from the repository. And it took an insanely long time because I didn't want to leave those package files sitting in cache forever, forgotten | 02:57 |
| Thundercross | That's right. I did install 9.10 on the 30th | 02:58 |
| Daskreech | Thundercross: That makes no sense to me but ok :) | 02:58 |
| Daskreech | Thundercross: rename xorg.conf to some backup file and rename the dstupgrade file from the 30th to xorg.conf and try startx | 02:59 |
| a2f | hi, i just installed system-config-printer for kde. i'm using a kde-minimal install so not everything made it over from a regular kubuntu installation cd. when i had previously installed the full kubuntu system i used to be able to choose certain kinds of printers... anyone know what package that's in? | 02:59 |
| Thundercross | Isn't that what you told me to do already? | 03:00 |
| Thundercross | With the mv command? | 03:00 |
| Daskreech | Thundercross: yep | 03:00 |
| Daskreech | what does startx say then ? | 03:00 |
| Thundercross | Still the same thing. | 03:00 |
| Daskreech | No Screens found ? | 03:01 |
| Thundercross | Yup | 03:01 |
| Daskreech | ok pastebinit /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 03:01 |
| Thundercross | For the url? | 03:01 |
| Scunizi | you got more than one monito plugged into the card? | 03:01 |
| Scunizi | *monitor | 03:01 |
| Thundercross | No I don't | 03:01 |
| Daskreech | Yep | 03:01 |
| Thundercross | http://pastebin.com/f2da7d151 | 03:02 |
| Thundercross | I do have a Wacom Tablet, however. | 03:02 |
| Daskreech | That's input not a screen | 03:03 |
| Scunizi | that wouldn't make a difference | 03:03 |
| Thundercross | During my research, I read that the references to the tablet in my xorg.conf was crashing X, so removing or commenting out the lines would fix it. | 03:03 |
| gorgonzola | Daskreech, thanks. but i can't get it to work with video. am i missing some button? | 03:03 |
| Thundercross | That's what led me to looking at it in Windows, and the discovery that it's so empty. | 03:04 |
| Daskreech | Thundercross: ok try sudo nvidia-settings | 03:04 |
| Daskreech | gorgonzola: what is it ? | 03:05 |
| Thundercross | Control Display is Undefined | 03:05 |
| gorgonzola | Daskreech i don't see any setting, action, button or whatever in kmess that says "start video" | 03:06 |
| gorgonzola | or similar | 03:06 |
| Thundercross | How big is the xorg.conf supposed to be? Because the largest version I have is the one that I was working with originally: 1305 | 03:07 |
| Daskreech | Thundercross: try sudo nvidia-xconfig again | 03:07 |
| Thundercross | Date incomplete in xorg.conf | 03:08 |
| Thundercross | Something tells me this file should be larger than 1305 | 03:08 |
| Daskreech | sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.dist-upgrade-200910300040 | 03:09 |
| Daskreech | gorgonzola: What version is it? | 03:09 |
| Thundercross | Sent it back to whence it came | 03:10 |
| Daskreech | Thundercross: after that run sudo nvidia-xconfig again | 03:10 |
| Daskreech | you know you can just press up and get back the command right? :) | 03:11 |
| Thundercross | I'm doing that | 03:11 |
| Thundercross | Unable to locate/open X configuration file. | 03:11 |
| Daskreech | What? | 03:11 |
| Daskreech | It's supposed to recreate one it can use | 03:12 |
| gorgonzola | Daskreech 2.0 | 03:12 |
| Daskreech | o_O | 03:12 |
| Thundercross | Automatically? | 03:12 |
| Daskreech | yes | 03:12 |
| Thundercross | Even though x isn't running? | 03:12 |
| Daskreech | Yes | 03:12 |
| Daskreech | It cares about the hardware you have not the Current X configuration | 03:13 |
| Daskreech | he point is to reconfigure it for your hardware/driver | 03:13 |
| Thundercross | Ooh, I tried it again | 03:13 |
| Thundercross | And it made a new one | 03:13 |
| Daskreech | Yay! | 03:14 |
| Daskreech | try startx | 03:14 |
| Daskreech | gorgonzola: Ah you need 2.1 Umm try amsn then | 03:14 |
| Daskreech | or listen to Scunizi | 03:14 |
| gorgonzola | Daskreech :( | 03:15 |
| gorgonzola | Daskreech i think i'll let it lie. emesen is not in the repo, and i don't to start adding repos or downloading external stuff. thanks for the info though. | 03:16 |
| Daskreech | gorgonzola: amsn should work if you have farsight2 | 03:16 |
| gorgonzola | Daskreech don;t even know what that is | 03:16 |
| Daskreech | http://www.amsn-project.net/wiki/Farsight | 03:17 |
| Thundercross_the | Thanks. It worked. | 03:17 |
| Daskreech | !find farsight | 03:17 |
| ubottu | Found: libgstfarsight0.10-0, libgstfarsight0.10-dbg, libgstfarsight0.10-dev, libgstfarsight0.10-doc, libtelepathy-farsight-dev (and 6 others) | 03:17 |
| Daskreech | Thundercross: bah why was it being so difficult? | 03:17 |
| djanatyn | Hello there. | 03:18 |
| djanatyn | I was just wondering about Kubuntu. | 03:18 |
| djanatyn | What's the difference between kubuntu, and ubuntu installed with KDE? | 03:18 |
| Thundercross_the | But I can't seem to get back to the other workspaces. | 03:19 |
| Daskreech | djanatyn: mental gymnastics? | 03:19 |
| Daskreech | !kubuntu | 03:19 |
| ubottu | Kubuntu is Ubuntu with KDE, the K Desktop Environment, instead of Gnome. See http://kubuntu.org for more information - For support: #kubuntu - See also !KDE | 03:19 |
| Daskreech | !kde | 03:19 |
| ubottu | KDE (http://kde.org) is the !desktop environment used natively in !Kubuntu. To install from Ubuntu: « sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop », or see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingKDE . See http://kubuntu.org for more information. For more information on KDE 4, see !kde4 | 03:19 |
| Thundercross | Oh, Ctrl+Alt+F1 | 03:20 |
| Thundercross | I see. | 03:20 |
| gorgonzola | Daskreech: ok, but i think i'll live withouth video. tcl/tk, amsn... i like my kde pure. thanks! | 03:20 |
| Thundercross | It feels rather cozy stuck with irssi. | 03:20 |
| Daskreech | djanatyn: if you would like tho get technical pulseaudio is installed on Ubuntu and it's not on Kubuntu | 03:20 |
| Daskreech | Thundercross: :-) It's nice | 03:20 |
| djanatyn | :) | 03:20 |
| Thundercross | But I need to get back to the pretty. | 03:20 |
| Daskreech | You need ctrl+Alt+ to escape X for obvious reasons | 03:21 |
| Daskreech | Thundercross: You can use it in X just open a terminal | 03:21 |
| Thundercross | Yeah. Too many programs just use Alt+arrow | 03:21 |
| Daskreech | gorgonzola: your choice but not sure if I call that a noble choice :) | 03:21 |
| Thundercross | I don't know how long I'll remember this. | 03:21 |
| === Thundercross_the is now known as Thundercross | ||
| Daskreech | gorgonzola: YOu can vote for the webcam feature request at bugs.kde.org if you like | 03:22 |
| === miguel is now known as Guest94566 | ||
| gorgonzola | Daskreech, ooooh, you don;t wanna go there. KDE evangelist here :P | 03:22 |
| Daskreech | Thundercross: It changes the bindings when you are in X so it works different | 03:22 |
| gorgonzola | Daskreech, i'll see what the folks over at #kopete have to say | 03:22 |
| gorgonzola | Daskreech they do have a rather prominent webcam configuration module... | 03:22 |
| Daskreech | gorgonzola: I organised CampKDE so don't start with me. I'm just saying that being pure when it harms you is silly | 03:23 |
| Daskreech | gorgonzola: Yeah they really need help but protocol hacking is hard | 03:23 |
| Thundercross | Well, I'm gonna have to go back to Windows pretty soon, for an MMO that doesn't run very well in Wine. | 03:23 |
| Daskreech | gorgonzola: I've been trying to figure out a way to get more involvement with them for a year | 03:24 |
| Daskreech | Which is that? | 03:24 |
| Daskreech | Thundercross: ^^^ | 03:24 |
| Thundercross | Mabinogi | 03:24 |
| Daskreech | Wow never heard of that | 03:24 |
| gorgonzola | Daskreech well, i'm not *that* purist. but i really like Qt, and i really don;t like Tcl/Tk | 03:24 |
| gorgonzola | Daskreech and i dont really need the video | 03:24 |
| Daskreech | Ah I can agree there | 03:24 |
| Thundercross | It's a really nice game. | 03:25 |
| Thundercross | And it's protected by an anti-hacking software called Hackshield Pro. | 03:25 |
| Daskreech | gorgonzola: If you want to it would really help to work with Kopete to get more eyes on the code | 03:25 |
| a2f | anyone know what the alsa dev file package is? | 03:26 |
| gorgonzola | Daskreech i'd love to help, but i'd hardly be of assistance. only user over here :( | 03:26 |
| Daskreech | Right now my current focus is getting people to maintain the misc rubbish outside of the protocols so that people who can do that can spend more time on that | 03:26 |
| Thundercross | The publisher just went through some extensive hardware upgrades, and they're running into some serious latency/connectivity issues. | 03:26 |
| Daskreech | gorgonzola: A user with a mouth and determination is the best kind of user | 03:26 |
| gorgonzola | Daskreech i'm a good user then :) | 03:26 |
| gorgonzola | Daskreech well, i see if i can contribute to get things moving. i'm sure that webcam thingy does at least something in kopete, so maybe i just don;t know how to use it... | 03:27 |
| gorgonzola | Daskreech thanks for the tips. see-ya! | 03:27 |
| Daskreech | gorgonzola: Well follow what you have a passion for it' what you are most likely to stick with | 03:27 |

| xonogenic | oh | 03:33 |
| xonogenic | if a telnet connection times out, then it is either the route ( ie firewal ) or the remote server | 03:33 |

| r00t_ninja_ | SuperSub: try testing different devices in the multimedia section in system settings | 07:22 |
| rfgergrthnre | hello? | 07:23 |
| shadeslayer | rfgergrthnre: so it boots kubuntu but not windows correct? | 07:28 |
| rfgergrthnre | shadeslayer, no, windows boots great, but the grub bootloader doesn't even show | 07:28 |
| shadeslayer | rfgergrthnre: ah.. edit /etc/default/grub then | 07:29 |
| rfgergrthnre | shadeslayer, er, how can I get there when linux doesn't even load? | 07:29 |
| shadeslayer | rfgergrthnre: oh you mean linux doesnt boot but windows does? | 07:30 |
| rfgergrthnre | Yes | 07:30 |
| shadeslayer | rfgergrthnre: do you have a bootable CD? | 07:30 |
| rfgergrthnre | Yeah, that's how I installed Kubuntu | 07:31 |
| shadeslayer | rfgergrthnre: ok,boot the cd and then (write this down :P ) | 07:31 |
| rfgergrthnre | :op | 07:32 |
| shadeslayer | rfgergrthnre: sudo fdisk -l (to check the disk name) | 07:32 |
| shadeslayer | rfgergrthnre: bleh... got a link for you,just a sec | 07:33 |
| shadeslayer | rfgergrthnre: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2#Recover Grub 2 via LiveCD | 07:33 |
| rfgergrthnre | shadeslayer, that's greek to me | 07:35 |
| rfgergrthnre | but it's linux; i shouldn't expect anything more | 07:35 |
| rfgergrthnre | i don't even know how to open a terminal | 07:36 |
| shadeslayer | rfgergrthnre: actually thats all english :P,just follow the wiki,and the listed commands :) | 07:36 |
| shadeslayer | rfgergrthnre: in kubuntu press alt+F2 and type konsole and hit enter | 07:36 |
| rfgergrthnre | shadeslayer, "open up a terminal" - how the hell do I do that? | 07:36 |
| rfgergrthnre | shadeslayer, I'm in LIVE CD | 07:37 |
| shadeslayer | rfgergrthnre: now you know how :) | 07:37 |
| rfgergrthnre | NOT KUBUNTU | 07:37 |
| shadeslayer | rfgergrthnre: eh? | 07:37 |
| Daskreech | rfgergrthnre: Which live CD ? | 07:37 |
| shadeslayer | Daskreech: he said he had a live cd,thats how he installed kubuntu | 07:39 |
| rfgergrthnre | i don't understand a word of that guide | 07:44 |
| rfgergrthnre | i don't understand chroot | 07:44 |
| rfgergrthnre | i don't understand which partition to look for | 07:44 |
| === shadesla1er is now known as shadeslayer | ||
| rfgergrthnre | this is all greek to me | 07:46 |
| shadeslayer | rfgergrthnre: ok well help you with every step,ok? | 07:47 |
| r00t_ninja_ | are we tring to fix grub? | 07:48 |
| shadeslayer | r00t_ninja_: yep | 07:48 |
| r00t_ninja_ | he cant boot into windows right? | 07:48 |
| shadeslayer | r00t_ninja_: he cant boot kubuntu | 07:48 |
| rfgergrthnre | no, windows works great | 07:48 |
| r00t_ninja_ | oh ok | 07:49 |
| rfgergrthnre | linux is the hassle, as usual | 07:49 |
| shadeslayer | rfgergrthnre: actually its not... | 07:49 |
| r00t_ninja_ | ^ | 07:49 |
| rfgergrthnre | if i try to run chroot is says cannot run command | 07:49 |
| r00t_ninja_ | windows likes to completly destroy all other bootloaders | 07:49 |
| shadeslayer | r00t_ninja_: i completely agree | 07:49 |
| rfgergrthnre | i installed windows first then kubuntu, r00t_ninja | 07:49 |
| shadeslayer | rfgergrthnre: did you install the bootloader as well? | 07:50 |
| rfgergrthnre | how do i do that? | 07:50 |
| shadeslayer | rfgergrthnre: well if you didnt change any settings it should have been installed by default | 07:50 |
| rfgergrthnre | shadeslayer, it wasn't | 07:51 |
| r00t_ninja_ | just boot off the live cd and run grub-install | 07:51 |
| rfgergrthnre | can i manually install it? | 07:51 |
| r00t_ninja_ | yes | 07:51 |
| shadeslayer | rfgergrthnre: yep,as r00t_ninja_ said | 07:52 |
| rfgergrthnre | how? | 07:52 |
| shadeslayer | rfgergrthnre: sudo grub-install /dev/sdaX where X is your drive no. | 07:52 |
| shadeslayer | (X is determined by sudo fdisk -l) | 07:53 |
| r00t_ninja_ | boot off the livecd and run the command "sudo grub-insta"ll /dev/sda | 07:53 |
| r00t_ninja_ | boot off the livecd and run the command "sudo grub-install /dev/sda" | 07:53 |
| r00t_ninja_ | shadeslayer: that wont install to the mbr' | 07:53 |
| shadeslayer | r00t_ninja_: ah your right,brb in a few mins | 07:53 |
| r00t_ninja_ | rfgergrthnre: boot off the livecd and come onto this irc | 07:54 |
| r00t_ninja_ | we can step you through | 07:54 |
| r00t_ninja_ | rfgergrthnre: you there? | 07:55 |
| rfgergrthnre | no luck | 07:56 |
| r00t_ninja_ | ? | 07:56 |
| rfgergrthnre | auto-detection of a file system module failed | 07:56 |
| r00t_ninja_ | when you ran "sudo grub-install /dev/sda" ? | 07:57 |
| rfgergrthnre | yes | 07:57 |
| r00t_ninja_ | what about " grub-install --recheck /dev/sda" | 07:59 |
| r00t_ninja_ | what about "sudo grub-install --recheck /dev/sda" | 07:59 |
| r00t_ninja_ | rfgergrthnre: you there? | 08:01 |
| Orion777 | is there a way to adjust color/brightness settings etc in kubuntu? | 08:04 |
| rfgergrthnre | r00t_ninja, same error | 08:04 |
| r00t_ninja_ | so is the windows boot loader the only one available? | 08:05 |
| r00t_ninja_ | theres nothing to do with grub? | 08:05 |
| rfgergrthnre | yea | 08:06 |
| rfgergrthnre | it can see the partition in windows | 08:06 |
| r00t_ninja_ | its wierd that grub didint install | 08:06 |
| rfgergrthnre | doesnt recognize the file system but it sees it | 08:06 |
| rfgergrthnre | its obviously a bug | 08:06 |
| rfgergrthnre | forget it; linux sucks | 08:06 |
| Orion777 | you're using kubuntu? | 08:07 |
| shadeslayer | rfgergrthnre: not for me | 08:07 |
| Orion777 | rfgergrthnre, you're using kubuntu? | 08:07 |
| rfgergrthnre | Orion777, ya | 08:07 |
| Orion777 | its buggy, there are more reliable releases | 08:08 |
| r00t_ninja_ | the only other thing i can think of is grub is installed and windows is the default boot option , try pressing esc during your boot to see if you can get to a menu that lists all options | 08:08 |
| r00t_ninja_ | or maybe your hd is a different device | 08:09 |
| r00t_ninja_ | "grub-install --recheck /dev/hda" | 08:10 |
| Orion777 | r00t_ninja, you've got skillz | 08:11 |
| shadeslayer | rfgergrthnre: run sudo fdisk -l first and tell us the first line of the list | 08:11 |
| r00t_ninja_ | ? | 08:11 |
| shadeslayer | r00t_ninja_: best way to tell what device he has | 08:11 |
| r00t_ninja_ | i was talking to orion | 08:12 |
| shadeslayer | ah | 08:12 |
| shadeslayer | rfgergrthnre: like mine has : Disk /dev/sda: 320.1 GB, 320072933376 bytes | 08:12 |
| rfgergrthnre | not interested | 08:13 |
| Orion777 | shadeslayer, is there a way to change brightness/contrast/color settings? | 08:13 |
| rfgergrthnre | i've been trying for 3 days to get it working | 08:13 |
| rfgergrthnre | when a system wont even start up after 3 days of constant trying, it tells me said system is a piece of rubbish | 08:13 |
| shadeslayer | rfgergrthnre: well its up to you... if it didnt work for you,too bad | 08:14 |
| shadeslayer | Orion777: desktop or laptop? | 08:14 |
| Orion777 | laptop | 08:14 |
| Orion777 | I can raise brightness from laptop but my card has digital vibrance and stuff and I dont know how to use it in kubuntu | 08:15 |
| shadeslayer | Orion777: what card? nvidia or ati? | 08:15 |
| r00t_ninja_ | ^ | 08:15 |
| Orion777 | nvidia | 08:15 |
| r00t_ninja_ | do you have the nvidia drivers? | 08:15 |
| ghostcube | nvidia-settings should be ok for extra settings | 08:15 |
| shadeslayer | Orion777: ok,do you have the restricted drivers? | 08:15 |
| shadeslayer | ghostcube: yep | 08:15 |
| Orion777 | well I used the hardware driver detect thing | 08:16 |
| ghostcube | Orion777: open konsole | 08:16 |
| shadeslayer | Orion777: yeah,you activated the drivers right? | 08:16 |
| Orion777 | yes | 08:16 |
| ghostcube | and test nvidia-settings | 08:16 |
| r00t_ninja_ | press alt-f2 | 08:16 |
| r00t_ninja_ | and type | 08:16 |
| r00t_ninja_ | kdesudo nvidia-settings | 08:16 |
| shadeslayer | r00t_ninja_: no need for sudo | 08:16 |
| ghostcube | r00t_ninjafirst time start maybe better without sudo | 08:16 |
| ghostcube | so he didnt kill its xorg | 08:16 |
| rfgergrthnre | shadeslayer, sorry but i work and i need a pc that functions, not a pc that's a hacker's toys and requires endless tweaking to do even basic tasks | 08:16 |
| r00t_ninja_ | you cant save xorg settings tho without it | 08:16 |
| ghostcube | r00t_ninja yeah thats wanted | 08:17 |
| shadeslayer | r00t_ninja_: i didnt even tweak a thing on my PC | 08:17 |
| ghostcube | dont ever get used to sudo in the first time use of an prog | 08:17 |
| r00t_ninja_ | wrong tab ;) | 08:17 |
| ghostcube | if not really needed | 08:17 |
| ghostcube | << tab moron | 08:17 |
| ghostcube | :D | 08:17 |
| r00t_ninja_ | -.- | 08:17 |
| ghostcube | and 9 am here | 08:17 |
| ghostcube | so iam still a bit tired | 08:18 |
| shadeslayer | rfgergrthnre: if you will co operate with us for 10 mins you will probably get kubuntu working | 08:19 |
| shadeslayer | rfgergrthnre: its not a problem with the OS but with windows bootloader itself | 08:20 |
| ghostcube | oh dualboot win7 karmic ? | 08:20 |
| shadeslayer | ghostcube: yep | 08:20 |
| ghostcube | damn in german c't was an big story how to do it | 08:20 |
| rfgergrthnre | yeah every problem is ms according to u guys | 08:20 |
| ghostcube | i havent got it in the office now | 08:20 |
| rfgergrthnre | the thought that it could be linux is unthinkable | 08:21 |
| ghostcube | rfgergrthnre: its definetly the boot loader of ms | 08:21 |
| ghostcube | and it is not only us here noticing this | 08:21 |
| shadeslayer | rfgergrthnre: well yeah,its a genuine problem | 08:21 |
| maco | rfgergrthnre: make grub your default boot loader, and you're good | 08:21 |
| ghostcube | maco: ++ cookie | 08:21 |
| ghostcube | :) | 08:21 |
| shadeslayer | hehe.. | 08:22 |
| maco | yeah, ms likes to have a monopoly on the system. oh well. lucky we have our own tools | 08:22 |
| Orion777 | holy crap, changing the invidia settings helped alot thank you | 08:22 |
| maco | and they work! | 08:22 |
| ghostcube | Orion777: no prob | 08:22 |
| ghostcube | but to get it working on every start you have to take a look into the nvidia pages i think | 08:22 |
| ghostcube | maco: any news for jackd to main | 08:22 |
| ghostcube | i heared youre audio guru now | 08:23 |
| maco | ghostcube: no idea | 08:23 |
| ghostcube | heh | 08:23 |
| ghostcube | ok | 08:23 |
| rfgergrthnre | maco, how? | 08:23 |
| maco | ghostcube: for kubuntu, ive been voluntelled. dtchen is still overall audio guru. i suppose with archive reorg that jack will go into the mythbuntu set though | 08:23 |
| ghostcube | ah ok :) | 08:23 |
| maco | rfgergrthnre: should be able to install it from a live cd | 08:24 |
| ghostcube | but this sounds good ma | 08:24 |
| shadeslayer | rfgergrthnre: like we told you,we first need the first line of : sudo fdisk -l : from a konsole | 08:24 |
| ghostcube | co | 08:24 |
| ghostcube | damn tabbning | 08:24 |
| rfgergrthnre | shadeslayer, give me a mo | 08:25 |
| shadeslayer | rfgergrthnre: sure :) | 08:25 |
| ghostcube | rfgergrthnre: you first installed win7 than karmic | 08:25 |
| ghostcube | with grub2 as loader ? | 08:25 |
| shadeslayer | ghostcube: thats what he said... | 08:25 |
| rfgergrthnre | i just followed the install instructions | 08:26 |
| luux | hi | 08:26 |
| r00t_ninja_ | if you want to repair you boot loader download and burn http://prdownload.berlios.de/supergrub/grub-rescue-cdrom.iso to a cd | 08:26 |
| shadeslayer | rfgergrthnre: btw from personal experience,i havent opened windows for the past 2 months :) | 08:26 |
| ghostcube | rfgergrthnre: just reinstall grub | 08:26 |
| ghostcube | and do an grub update after reboot | 08:26 |
| luux | how to make jack default sound system | 08:26 |
| rfgergrthnre | r00t_ninja, no thanks, don't want more linux junk | 08:27 |
| ghostcube | luux: you need an ppa | 08:27 |
| ghostcube | moment pls | 08:27 |
| shadeslayer | ghostcube: thats what were helping him with,hes new to this | 08:27 |
| luux | which one? | 08:27 |
| rfgergrthnre | r00t_ninja, if it's linux-based, it'll no doubt destroy my system | 08:27 |
| luux | in gentoo jack shows up in system settings of kde4 | 08:27 |
| maco | this is what worked for me | 08:27 |
| maco | http://paste.ubuntu.com/331433/ | 08:27 |
| ghostcube | luux: i have it | 08:27 |
| maco | replacing /media/blahblah with your drive mounted from the live cd | 08:27 |
| luux | so the whole kde uses it. | 08:28 |
| r00t_ninja_ | wait , you can boot into windows right? | 08:28 |
| maco | and well instead of /dev/sdb probably /dev/sda since im guessing you have only one drive | 08:28 |
| ghostcube | luux: http://ppa.launchpad.net/motin/until-jack-is-included-in-main/ubuntu | 08:28 |
| shadeslayer | r00t_ninja_: yep he can | 08:28 |
| ghostcube | and you need an asoundrc luux | 08:28 |
| r00t_ninja_ | just get this then: http://download.cnet.com/Auto-Super-Grub-Disk/3000-2094_4-10829335.html | 08:28 |
| maco | rfgergrthnre: well your options are dont use linux at all or use grub because ntldr wont boot non-windows OSes. your choice. | 08:29 |
| ghostcube | luux: i have an updated jackd ppa too | 08:29 |
| ghostcube | works very well | 08:29 |

| shadeslayer | rssadfa: ok now type : sudo grub-install /dev/sda | 08:38 |
| shadeslayer | oh he has 2 drives.. | 08:39 |
| rssadfa | yeah | 08:39 |
| shadeslayer | r00t_ninja_: what do you think? sda or sdb? | 08:39 |
| shadeslayer | rssadfa: just a sev | 08:39 |
| rssadfa | i wanna put the bootloader on the 80gig | 08:39 |
| shadeslayer | *sec | 08:39 |
| r00t_ninja_ | sda | 08:39 |
| shadeslayer | rssadfa: we need the bootloader on sda,since thats the primary drive | 08:40 |
| r00t_ninja_ | wait | 08:40 |
| r00t_ninja_ | no | 08:40 |
| shadeslayer | r00t_ninja_: ? | 08:40 |
| r00t_ninja_ | hes got linux on sdb | 08:40 |
| shadeslayer | r00t_ninja_: yeah | 08:40 |
| r00t_ninja_ | its not a grub problem | 08:40 |
| r00t_ninja_ | because its on that drive | 08:40 |
| r00t_ninja_ | he needs to choose to boot from that in his bios options | 08:41 |
| shadeslayer | r00t_ninja_ ah.. | 08:41 |
| rssadfa | k | 08:41 |
| rssadfa | lemme try | 08:41 |
| r00t_ninja_ | rssadfa: when you boot up try pressing f12 | 08:41 |
| rssadfa | quit | 08:41 |
| r00t_ninja_ | im guessing /dev/sda was his primary boot device | 08:42 |
| shadeslayer | r00t_ninja_: yeah me too | 08:42 |
| rfgergrthnre | nope | 08:47 |
| rfgergrthnre | didn't work | 08:47 |
| rfgergrthnre | it stalls at GRUB | 08:47 |
| rfgergrthnre | the word GRUB appears and it parks | 08:47 |
| shadeslayer | rfgergrthnre: whats the exact error message? | 08:47 |
| rfgergrthnre | thanks guys, u meant well | 08:47 |
| rfgergrthnre | but really, i'm finished | 08:47 |
| rfgergrthnre | shadeslayer, there is none | 08:47 |
| rfgergrthnre | shadeslayer, it just stalls at GRUB | 08:47 |
| shadeslayer | rfgergrthnre: oh well.... | 08:48 |
| rfgergrthnre | what a piece of junk | 08:48 |
| rfgergrthnre | i guess u get what u pay for | 08:48 |
| shadeslayer | rfgergrthnre: please,it didnt work for you but it works for us | 08:48 |
| maco | rfgergrthnre: can you hit esc to get into the menu? | 08:48 |
| rfgergrthnre | maco, no | 08:48 |
| maco | rfgergrthnre: did you try? | 08:48 |
| rfgergrthnre | maco, yes | 08:48 |
| rfgergrthnre | shadeslayer, not just me; ive spoken to dozens of folks who have issues with it | 08:49 |
| maco | dunno what to tell you. works for several million other folks :-/ | 08:49 |
| rfgergrthnre | shadeslayer, look on the forums; millions have the same problems | 08:49 |
| rfgergrthnre | linux is broken and buggy; sorry u cant accept it | 08:49 |
| Orion777 | why doesn't he just reformat hd with two partitions, install kubuntu in one and win 7 in the other? that's what I did | 08:50 |
| Orion777 | works fine | 08:50 |
| Mamarok | millions? rfgergrthnre, please don't exaggerate :) | 08:51 |
| shadeslayer | Mamarok: its a lost cause :( | 08:51 |
| Orion777 | is he trying to get it to install or something else? | 08:51 |
| r00t_ninja | !ot | 08:51 |
| ubottu | #kubuntu is the official Kubuntu support channel, for all Kubuntu-related support questions. Please use #kubuntu-offtopic for general chatter. Thanks! | 08:51 |
| maco | probably something we could debug in person but its hard online | 08:51 |
| rfgergrthnre | Orion777, i tried that previously, same problem | 08:51 |
| maco | rfgergrthnre: is there an ubuntu loco team near you? | 08:51 |
| rfgergrthnre | Orion777, thats why i partitioned | 08:51 |
| rfgergrthnre | maco, i had an experience with a fellow named marek (www.marek.co.za) | 08:52 |
| maco | the logical alternative to avoid grub, i think, would be to use wubi | 08:52 |
| r00t_ninja | something probably got messed up in all our attempts to repair something nit broken | 08:52 |
| Orion777 | what I did was had win 7, used euseus partition manager to create a second partition, booted up with kubuntu disk, chose the second partition in advanced(manual) partition section | 08:52 |
| rfgergrthnre | it was horrible maco | 08:53 |
| rfgergrthnre | he was rude and condescending | 08:53 |
| Orion777 | then formatted it as ext4 and chose it as installation location | 08:53 |
| maco | rfgergrthnre: i'm sorry. thats NOT how people are supposed to act in this community | 08:53 |
| rfgergrthnre | i dont see why i need to struggle with a clunky, buggy os and then have to take abuse from its cultists | 08:54 |
| maco | rfgergrthnre: i see .co.za are you in south africa? | 08:54 |
| Orion777 | lol | 08:54 |
| dihae | any news of the kde 4.4 beta 1 packages? | 08:54 |
| maco | dihae: https://wiki.kubuntu.org/Kubuntu/Ninjas/Packaging | 08:54 |

| fantome | slt ts | 08:54 |
| rfgergrthnre | how do i get rid of the ext4 partitions? | 08:55 |
| luux | rfgergrthnre: delet m$$$ shit install kubuntu, problem solved. | 08:55 |
| shadeslayer | rfgergrthnre: format them from windows partition manager | 08:55 |
| shadeslayer | luux: heh | 08:55 |
| luux | m$$ suck anyways. | 08:55 |
| maco | rfgergrthnre: if you're in south africa, http://wiki.ubuntu-za.org/Wiki_Home | 08:55 |
| r00t_ninja | !ot | 08:55 |
| maco | luux: stop that | 08:55 |
| maco | luux: 1) rfgergrthnre's issue is with grub | 08:55 |
| maco | luux: 2) thats not how you spell microsoft | 08:56 |
| shadeslayer | yessss.... their in staging :D | 08:56 |
| maco | luux: 3) no saying the s word | 08:56 |
| maco | luux: 4) you're behaving trollishly | 08:56 |
| dihae | maco: thanks, though it looks like it's still going to take a while | 08:56 |
| luux | yawn | 08:56 |
| maco | luux: that is not how you welcome a new user, particularly one who is extremely frustrated with linux | 08:57 |
| maco | luux: better behaviour is expected | 08:57 |
| shadeslayer | maco: so packaging will be probably finished by today i guess? | 08:58 |
| maco | !guidelines | in case nobody's clear on the expected behaviour in this and all *buntu channels | 08:58 |
| ubottu | in case nobody's clear on the expected behaviour in this and all *buntu channels: The guidelines for using the Ubuntu channels can be found here: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines | 08:58 |
| maco | shadeslayer: i guess? i spent 3 days on kdeedu and finally handed off to ScottK | 08:59 |
| maco | marek_: did you talk to someone who goes by rfgergrthnre about kubuntu? | 08:59 |
| shadeslayer | maco: hehe.. its hard being a ninja :) | 08:59 |
| shadeslayer | maco: i did why? | 08:59 |
| maco | shadeslayer: not you, marek. rf<tab> said something about marek | 09:00 |
| shadeslayer | maco: ah ok | 09:00 |
| Orion777 | why does hardware driver detection only pick up video card drivers? | 09:08 |
| shadeslayer | Orion777: because its meant only for video cards | 09:09 |
| Orion777 | what works for network card etc? | 09:09 |
| Orion777 | or is that already current | 09:09 |
| shadeslayer | Orion777: its auto detected by kernel modules | 09:09 |

| Orion777 | I remember in an older ubuntu there was something called simple firewall, I can't seem to find it | 09:27 |
| Orion777 | is a firewall built into kubuntu by default? | 09:27 |
| r00t_ninja | iptables comes by default | 09:28 |

| Orion777 | or activate it | 09:28 |
| ||arifaX | Hi, where can I find my recycle bin? | 09:29 |

| ||arifaX | r00t_ninja: we need something different | 09:32 |
| r00t_ninja | mmm | 09:32 |
| r00t_ninja | try guarddog | 09:33 |
| tsimpson | ||arifaX: right click the desktop, choose "Add Widgets" and search for "delete", it should show the widget | 09:34 |
| tsimpson | you can drag it to the panel or put it on the desktop | 09:34 |
| ||arifaX | tsimpson: got it - thanks a lot - it was so easy. classical "error between the headphones" | 09:36 |
| maco | Orion777: ubuntu includes iptables in an unconfigured state. unconfigured because with no services listening, its no different than dropping all anyway. ufw ("uncomplicated firewall") is a command line wrapper for it, and i know in ubuntu there's a frontend for it called gufw that seems nice (and, unlike firestarter, is actually maintained) | 09:37 |
| === jacques is now known as Guest74093 | ||
| Orion777 | how do I find it for kubuntu? | 09:38 |
| maco | all the same repositories, so in the package manager as you would anything else | 09:38 |
| maco | ufw is installed by default, i believe | 09:38 |
| maco | it has such difficult commands as "sudo ufw allow daap" :P | 09:39 |
| r00t_ninja | guarddog is a nice gui for kde | 09:39 |
| === ghostcube_ is now known as ghostcube | ||
| maco | r00t_ninja: i found guarddog impossible to use. and i got into a "oh god cant get online to find out what i did wrong!" state | 09:39 |
| Orion777 | firestarter seems to be working | 09:40 |
| ghostcube | hmm best is pccop router or an nat router | 09:40 |
| ghostcube | no need for an internal fw on an linux client | 09:40 |
| ghostcube | ipcop | 09:40 |
| ghostcube | o.O | 09:40 |
| Orion777 | ghostcube, you're saying I don't need a firewall? | 09:41 |
| ghostcube | why should you | 09:41 |
| ghostcube | dont you use an router or so ? | 09:41 |
| maco | Orion777: if you're already behind a firewall and you trust everything inside your lan, no | 09:41 |
| Orion777 | yes | 09:41 |
| r00t_ninja | all ports are closed and have nothing listening on them by default | 09:41 |
| maco | r00t_ninja: "open but nothing listening" actually... | 09:41 |
| ghostcube | so i wont slow down my own client if using an nat router | 09:41 |
| Orion777 | kmyfirewall ran some script and I wonder if it changed the settings..how would I reset them | 09:42 |
| maco | r00t_ninja: check your "sudo iptables -L" ...it's ALLOW | 09:42 |
| ghostcube | statefull and stateless is different | 09:42 |
| ghostcube | ;) | 09:42 |
| r00t_ninja | my bad | 09:42 |
| ghostcube | but Orion777 i wouldnt use fw direct on the client if you have an old pc with less power you can just use it as an ipcop firewall | 09:43 |
| maco | Orion777: if you dont have any services running, you can just plain not use a firewall | 09:45 |
| maco | Orion777: because a service needs to be listening in order for a connection to be established | 09:45 |
| Orion777 | I dont know what services I have running | 09:46 |
| ghostcube | if you dont installed any apache or so it should only be port 53 thats listening | 09:46 |
| ghostcube | :D | 09:46 |
| maco | Orion777: have you installed an ssh server, database, web server, or mail server? | 09:46 |
| Orion777 | no | 09:46 |
| maco | Orion777: then probably none, since kubuntu comes with none | 09:46 |
| ghostcube | so nothing to keep safe | 09:46 |
| Orion777 | how do I reset my iptable settings? | 09:47 |
| r00t_ninja | im off to sleep g'night | 09:48 |

| ilan_ | hello | 10:12 |
| Orion777 | hi ilan | 10:12 |
| ilan_ | i've got eepc | 10:12 |
| Orion777 | cool, I'm thinking of getting one of those | 10:13 |
| ilan_ | and i installed ubuntu9.10 | 10:13 |
| ilan_ | i had before 9.04 | 10:13 |
| ilan_ | and everything worked great | 10:13 |
| Orion777 | yes? | 10:14 |
| ilan_ | then i upgraded to 9.10 | 10:14 |
| Orion777 | well, what do you think? | 10:14 |
| ilan_ | suddenly it wont detect my sound card | 10:15 |
| ilan_ | i hear very low volume | 10:15 |
| Orion777 | hmm, from what I understand 9.04 is still more reliable | 10:15 |
| Orion777 | stable etc | 10:15 |
| Orion777 | brb | 10:15 |
| ilan_ | you know how can i downgrade to 9.04? | 10:16 |
| Vroomfondle | !downgrade | 10:16 |
| ubottu | Attempting to downgrade to an older Ubuntu version is explicitly not supported, and may break your system. | 10:16 |
| ilan_ | ouch | 10:16 |
| Vroomfondle | basically: it almost certainly won't work | 10:16 |
| Vroomfondle | the best option is to reinstall | 10:16 |
| ilan_ | you know of any way i can fix it? | 10:16 |
| ilan_ | everything is great except for the sound card | 10:17 |
| ilan_ | faster etc.. | 10:17 |
| Vroomfondle | sorry, I don't have an eepc | 10:17 |
| ilan_ | i see | 10:17 |
| ilan_ | thx anywasy | 10:17 |
| ilan_ | know by chance where i should ask for help? | 10:19 |
| Vroomfondle | ilan_: try #alsa? It might be an ALSA-related problem | 10:20 |
| Vroomfondle | or ##alsa... I forget | 10:20 |
| Orion777 | ilan, there is more help in #ubuntu | 10:23 |

| stefan | thanks | 12:23 |
| stefan | "staging" means the ppa-repo where it says "DO NOT USE" in the title? | 12:24 |
| maco | yes | 12:24 |
| stefan | do you need testers for that? | 12:25 |
| tsimpson | stefan: no, we don't ;) | 12:25 |
| maco | stefan: i dont think it has all the libraries yet, so i dont think anything will actually run | 12:25 |
| tsimpson | no one should use it | 12:25 |
| stefan | ok ;) no problem | 12:26 |
| akseya | hi there | 12:43 |
| akseya | well.. i'm having a little problem, on a notebook I have Kubuntu 9.10 ... on a remote server I have an NFS share and also a Samba share .. if I type smb://10.0.0.1 on douphin i get the shares, but the Network folder from KDE does not shows my server | 12:46 |
| akseya | what am I forgeting to configure | 12:46 |
| akseya | ? | 12:46 |
| ghostcube | so what is not showing where akseya | 12:48 |
| ghostcube | the smb share from linux ? | 12:48 |
| === christer_ is now known as kimster | ||
| akseya | yeah, i wish I could see the smb://10.0.0.1 from somewhere without having to type it... you know... it should be recognized automatically | 12:49 |
| akseya | in case I'm on another network, and there are other shares.. | 12:50 |
| ghostcube | akseya: i can tell you an tool that is the best for samba on kde but i think jussi01 will kill me for this | 12:54 |
| ghostcube | :D | 12:54 |
| === andrea is now known as andrea__ | ||
| akseya | lol.. why would he kill you, ghostcube ? | 12:55 |
| jussi01 | ghostcube: feel free... just use common sense about it :) | 12:55 |
| akseya | just one thing.. as the server has both nfs and smb shares (both shares the same folders) i guess I should use nfs, shouldn't I? | 12:56 |
| ghostcube | i think smb4k is a very fine tool | 12:56 |
| andrea__ | hallo does anybody know if there's any program which detect and remove double files? | 12:56 |
| ghostcube | akseya: smb4k is the one i prefere and there is an kde4 version | 12:57 |
| ghostcube | :) | 12:57 |
| ghostcube | dont know if its in repos now but i can tell you where to get it | 12:57 |
| akseya | i did an apt-cache search and it found it ... | 12:57 |
| ghostcube | :) | 12:58 |
| akseya | not sure if it's kde4 version | 12:58 |
| Hugonaut | does anyone know how to enable the equalizer in Amarok? | 12:58 |
| ghostcube | it should work if in repo akseya | 12:58 |
| akseya | gona give it a try ;) | 12:58 |
| ghostcube | ;) | 12:58 |
| ghostcube | its worth so | 12:58 |
| akseya | how about the nfs question? | 12:58 |
| ghostcube | uhm sorry totally nfs noob :| | 12:58 |
| ghostcube | i do all in samba | 12:59 |
| akseya | it should be better than smb, since both machines are running Linux | 12:59 |
| a2f | does anyone know if there is a package like kde-minimal for gnome in the ubuntu repositories? | 12:59 |
| ghostcube | sure nfs is possible to be mounted afaik | 12:59 |
| ghostcube | a2f: maby anyone in #ubuntu knows better than here | 12:59 |
| ghostcube | :) | 12:59 |
| akseya | well.. going go test the smb4k .. thanks | 13:00 |
| andrea__ | hallo does anybody know if there's any program which detect and remove double files? | 13:00 |
| shadeslayer | a2f: ubuntu-minimal ? | 13:00 |
| a2f | ghostcube: probably, which is why i also asked in there | 13:00 |
| ghostcube | oh ok :) iam not in #ubuntu sorry | 13:00 |
| ghostcube | havent seen | 13:01 |
| shadeslayer | ghostcube: btw smb4k kinda screwed my KDE once | 13:01 |
| ghostcube | shadeslayer: uhm ? | 13:01 |
| ghostcube | never had any probs so far o.o | 13:01 |
| ghostcube | iam using since 1,5 years now | 13:01 |
| shadeslayer | ghostcube: it was during the 4.1.x cycles.. couldnt upgrade tp 4.2 since smb4k was blocking the upgrades | 13:02 |
| ghostcube | outsch | 13:02 |
| ghostcube | i had it from getdeb at this time | 13:02 |
| manjula | Hi All | 13:02 |
| shadeslayer | ghostcube: yeah,when i removed it and installed the standard version,everything worked fine | 13:02 |
| shadeslayer | manjula: hey | 13:02 |
| ghostcube | like the simpsons manjula | 13:03 |
| ghostcube | :D | 13:03 |
| manjula | i have ubuntu 9.04 installed in my system and i want to instal windows XP on a another partition but this will overwrite my grub. So can someone please tell me the easiest way to reinstall grub after i install the windows Xp for dual boot | 13:04 |
| manjula | ? | 13:04 |
| * ghostcube not the easy way specialist :) | 13:05 | |
| nicklas_ | is there any other gui way too install packages than with kpackagekit? its kinda annoying having too look through like 1500 packages for installing the games you want :-P | 13:05 |
| shadeslayer | manjula: em : sudo grub-install /dev/(hard disk) | 13:06 |
| ghostcube | nicklas_: synaptic | 13:06 |
| ghostcube | its gnome but it works fine | 13:06 |
| manjula | shadeslayer: from the live CD ? | 13:06 |
| shadeslayer | manjula: yep | 13:06 |
| ghostcube | hi rgreening :) | 13:06 |
| nicklas_ | synaptic is the same | 13:06 |
| * shadeslayer waves to rgreening | 13:07 | |
| manjula | shadeslayer: Ok thanks i though it will not work from their | 13:07 |
| === rgreening_ is now known as rgreening | ||
| nicklas_ | i want like in gnome, a meta packages gui | 13:07 |
| manjula | shadeslayer: Thanks bye | 13:07 |
| shadeslayer | manjula: hehe.. no problems | 13:07 |
| shadeslayer | nicklas_: ubuntu-desktop ? | 13:08 |
| nicklas_ | shadeslayer: nah :-P | 13:09 |
| shadeslayer | nicklas_: ah you want a gui package manager? | 13:10 |
| nicklas_ | shadeslayer: yes, where it doesnt show all the packages for the games, just the games | 13:10 |
| shadeslayer | nicklas_: best way is : apt-cache search package | grep some_search_word | 13:10 |
| nicklas_ | shadeslayer: with that i get a list? | 13:11 |
| shadeslayer | nicklas_: yep, like : apt-cache search moon | grep buggy | 13:11 |
| shadeslayer | nicklas_: see.... CLI is way better and flexible :P | 13:12 |
| nicklas_ | shadeslayer: i know, but i want that whole list where i can click the games i want | 13:12 |
| shadeslayer | nicklas_: well you wont be able to 'click' anything but,youll get all the info you need | 13:13 |
| shadeslayer | nicklas_: then install with whatever package manager you need,or : sudo apt-get install packagename : in same terminal | 13:13 |
| nicklas_ | shadeslayer: you know how it works in ubuntu right? with add/remove packages? | 13:13 |
| nicklas_ | shadeslayer: like that | 13:13 |
| shadeslayer | nicklas_: oh... no idea then... | 13:14 |
| nicklas_ | shadeslayer: or the software center works too, but dont wanna install gnome-desktop :-P | 13:14 |
| shadeslayer | hehe... | 13:14 |
| nicklas_ | shadeslayer: wonder if i can build a gui | 13:14 |
| nicklas_ | dont know how to program or anything | 13:14 |
| shadeslayer | nicklas_: sure kubuntu needs alot of love :) | 13:14 |

| a2f | for some reason i can't join the regular ubuntu channel but could someone please help me? there's a major problem with one of the packages in ubuntu: fast-user-switch-applet... it doesn't seem to exist :( and because of that, i can't install gnome-desktop-environment in aptitude | 14:21 |
| Guest70546 | how do I disable gui login in favor of console login? on 9.10? | 14:21 |
| Guest70546 | hmmm, seems awful quiet in here ... | 14:23 |
| mtltemplar | yep. ppl are just waking up still i think | 14:25 |
| alexander | i read in various sites that in order to update my bios i have to copy the update file on 3.5''disk. my pc doesnt have such a port. is the cd a way to deal with such a problem? | 14:27 |
| genii | Guest70546: You'd normally have an ubuntu-server install for a box set up in that way. But you can remove gdm/kdm/xdm and it's corresponding x/k/ubuntu-desktop package, with ubuntu-minimal | 14:27 |
| Guest70546 | I just want to test my new xorg.conf, I'll be switching the kdm back on later | 14:28 |
| genii | alexander: Most cd-burning programs have an option to use a boot-floppy image as a boot image for a bootable CD | 14:28 |
| genii | Guest70546: Then you can use update-rc.d command on kdm to disable it properly for now, then use it again after to re-enable it. Maybe check it's manpage | 14:30 |
| Guest70546 | yeah, I can use my Kubuntu live cd but it's a long path and a big hassle | 14:30 |

| dihae | on the kubuntu ninjas packaging status page, the kdebindings status is 'FTBS'. what does this mean? | 14:39 |
| Pici | dihae: Failed To Build from Source | 14:40 |
| dihae | aha, i thought it meant 'f*ck this bullsh*t' ^^ | 14:40 |
| dihae | Pici: what does this mean for running kde without this package? | 14:41 |
| Pici | dihae: Er, no. (And please mind the language in the future) | 14:41 |
| Pici | dihae: I don't know, I'm not sure what role that package plays in KDE. | 14:42 |
| dihae | Pici: it was the only acronym explenation i found on the net, so I was kind enough to place *'s | 14:43 |
| dihae | Pici: I just looked it up: it seems that it isn't a very crucial package, as it is not installed on my system, which is a plain kubuntu 9.10 install | 14:45 |
| dihae | I think it is more a development package | 14:45 |

| genii | nicklas_: You can try: sudo apt-get install -f | 14:53 |
| nicklas_ | genii: what will that do? | 14:53 |
| nicklas_ | genii: dont i have to specify a package name? | 14:54 |

| stefan__ | jimmy: its not supposed to be used by anyone as far as i know | 15:06 |
| jimmy | I've read on ubuntuforums.org someone talking about | 15:07 |
| genii | snarkster: Likely because the KDE clamav frontend is KlamAV | 15:08 |
| snarkster | yah I see that but I did a search by description as well.. nothing came up but kmail | 15:08 |
| snarkster | so packagekit wont find gnome software at all? | 15:09 |
| snarkster | if klamav and clamav are in the repo shouldnt it have brought it up as well? | 15:09 |
| jimmy | kpackagekit find klamav here | 15:10 |
| genii | snarkster: Not sure about it not finding gnome stuff to install. But if there's some preferred KDE version or interface it will usually list th packagenames that those go by | 15:10 |
| snarkster | just did a search by filename for klamav and it brought up app-install-data | 15:11 |

| jason__ | got a question about my wifi on kubuntu 9.04 - does it take a while for the signal meter to "refresh"? | 15:40 |
| jason__ | cause I was downstairs in the basement where theres zero wifi and it still said 100% | 15:40 |
| jason__ | I also have 2 signal meters in my network manager - one with my IP next to it, one with my SSID next to it - which one is my true signal meter? Both currently are 100%... | 15:41 |
| apparle | snarkster: And what command should I use to make a file only writable by su | 15:41 |
| snarkster | did you continue to be able to surf the web or talk in irc? | 15:41 |
| jason__ | snarkster - I did not try, to be honest. I just saw no signal and thought ahh that's it, no signal | 15:41 |
| snarkster | 100% and no signal | 15:41 |
| jason__ | snarkster - this is my work wifi (Im in the tech dept) and Im in a school with very old, lead walls. Signal is hard to pass through walls here. | 15:41 |
| jason__ | snarkster - well, I have 2 meters though | 15:42 |
| jason__ | snarkster - which one is mine? | 15:42 |
| snarkster | the one with no signal is yours. | 15:42 |

| apparle | And how to get the neopmunk search working | 16:07 |
| genii | Dindon: The dhcp server is giving client pxe box a valid route to internet to find that FQDN? | 16:07 |
| Dindon | genii: yes as a dns server | 16:07 |
| binarylooks | apparle: did u check in the system settings advance tab? | 16:08 |
| Dindon | genii: option domain-name-servers and option routers are sets | 16:08 |
| apparle | binarylooks: that doesn't work.... I enabled the strigi service also | 16:08 |
| binarylooks | can u describe WHAT doesn'nt work? | 16:09 |
| binarylooks | for example, can u change tags in dolphin? | 16:09 |
| Morydd | is there any good reason not to remove apport? | 16:10 |
| binarylooks | Morydd: I think in lucid dr konqui will be used instead of apport | 16:10 |
| apparle | binarylooks: I didn't check that.... but searching doesn't work and after..... about an hour RAM usage goes up by about 400MB.. | 16:10 |
| apparle | binarylooks: I mean searching in krunner | 16:11 |
| binarylooks | for the moment maybe turn of strigi, nepomul is often enough already | 16:11 |
| dlong | Hello all | 16:11 |
| binarylooks | if i tag a picture with "holidays" and afterwards type "holildays" in krunner, the picures pop up | 16:11 |
| Morydd | All I know is that I'm constantly getting dialogs that pop up asking for my password from apport. Sometimes several in a row. | 16:11 |
| binarylooks | this is done by nepomuk, not strigi | 16:11 |
| genii | Dindon: So the dhcp server is routing traffic from the adapter which it is giving the clients IP on, to another adapter which is then connected to the internet? | 16:12 |
| Dindon | genii: no there is a dual wan router (wich is the gw) | 16:13 |
| Dindon | genii: only 1 interface on this box | 16:13 |
| genii | Dindon: The URL you gave cannot be resolved | 16:14 |

| apparle | binarylooks: yes | 16:16 |
| apparle | binarylooks: kubuntu 9.10 | 16:16 |
| binarylooks | apparle: i remember having the same issue, some appeared after a restart, some never turned up. | 16:16 |
| binarylooks | can u give me an example so I can try on my box | 16:16 |
| genii | Dindon: eg: I can get to for instance http://zeus.fr/ but http://pxe.zeus.fr/ is nonexistent | 16:18 |
| Dindon | it's a lan domain genii | 16:18 |
| Dindon | only on our bind ;) | 16:18 |
| apparle | binarylooks: I have the plasmoid 'inUtileBar' installed (I get uninstall option in front of it in get new widgets) but it is not shown in add widgets list | 16:19 |
| genii | Dindon: I would suggest to use for the preseed location then the IP and not fully-qualified-domain-name | 16:19 |
| Dindon | Already did genii ;) | 16:19 |
| Dindon | Issue is exactly the same | 16:20 |
| binarylooks | apparle: did u get it from kde-look via the GHNS interface or did u download a file? | 16:20 |
| apparle | Someone plz suggest a way such that I'll be able to see the HDD temperature in a widget etc. | 16:20 |
| apparle | binarylooks: I installed it from get new widget directly.... didn't download the file.... what's the expansion of GHNS | 16:21 |
| genii | Dindon: Can you pastebin contents of the server's /etc/dhcp3/dhcpd.conf please | 16:21 |
| Dindon | ofc genii hold on | 16:22 |
| K350 | I've indexed my M Audio Delta soundcard as 0 in alsa-base.conf. But I've to reload alsa after every boot to have it as primary soundcard. What to do about it? | 16:22 |

| binarylooks | anyway, i have to leave now. goog luck | 16:24 |
| genii | Dindon: Reading. Apologies on lag, work requires me often today | 16:26 |
| Dindon | genii: no problem thanks for helping !!! | 16:26 |
| genii | Dindon: I would suggest to change "routers" to the 192.168.2.2 instead of 192.168.1.1, then it will look to the box it is on for the name/IP | 16:31 |

| Kolia | jason__: i usually do a sudo apt-get install wicd | 16:41 |
| jason__ | I'm updating right now wirelessly so I cant pick anything up in add/remove programs | 16:41 |
| jason__ | ah okay | 16:41 |
| jason__ | I heard good things about wicd tho - I wonder why its not the default (built in) wifi manager | 16:41 |
| Kolia | also when installing wicd it says it will remove the network manager: don't worry it's normal | 16:41 |
| jason__ | I heard people in the ubuntu chat on the gnome side saying the same thing | 16:41 |
| jason__ | kolia - so just in case things backfire, I can just plug in ethernet and do an apt-get install network-manager and be back to where I was? | 16:41 |
| Kolia | jason__: can't confirm this sorry | 16:42 |
| jason__ | great - all of the sudden I cant see any windows shares on kubuntu | 16:42 |
| jason__ | (not related to wicd) | 16:42 |
| Kolia | (yep) | 16:42 |
| jason__ | just noticed it and decided to rant :P | 16:42 |
| jason__ | unable to find any workgroups on your network. May be related to a firewall. | 16:43 |
| jason__ | I was connected two and a half minutes ago, and now samba gives me the finger | 16:43 |

| snarkster | samba is way to complicated | 16:44 |
| snarkster | dont get me wrong its great, just overly complicated. | 16:44 |
| jason__ | what do you mean, too complicated? In terms of using it, or the way its designed? | 16:44 |
| snarkster | nfs is easy compared to samba | 16:45 |
| mtltemplar | anyone in here dealt with ati hd cards on 9.1 64bit and trying to setup two X server sessions instead of cloning or xinerama? | 16:45 |
| jason__ | nfs is also linux only - isnt it? | 16:45 |
| jason__ | cause Im on a windows network here at work | 16:45 |
| snarkster | yes | 16:45 |
| jason__ | so Im kinda, screwed | 16:45 |
| jason__ | I should set up nfs at home | 16:45 |
| jason__ | can I have nfs and samba run in parallel together? | 16:45 |
| jason__ | cause I have windows/mac's at home too that still need to hit my server | 16:46 |
| snarkster | i was just commenting on how difficult samba is to configure compared to nfs | 16:46 |
| apparle | where is DCOP? | 16:46 |
| Vroomfondle | erm, I think you can use Windows Services For UNIX to access NFS | 16:47 |

| apparle | maco: how to install it... and why is it not installed by default | 16:48 |
| jason__ | Vroomfondle - no kidding? | 16:49 |
| Vroomfondle | jason__: so I hear | 16:49 |
| jason__ | Vroomfondle - if Windows services/nfs works better than samba, we have a winner. | 16:49 |
| maco | er......hm wait....nevermind. i dont know | 16:49 |
| jason__ | have you heard anything about macs tho? | 16:49 |
| maco | i had no idea the command existed before. but i was just mentally mixing up ipcop and dcop | 16:49 |
| Vroomfondle | I imagine macs can access NFS.... surely they must be able to. MacOS is Unix-based. | 16:49 |
| maco | Vroomfondle: yes they can | 16:50 |
| apparle | binarylooks are you there? | 16:50 |

| thereevis26 | i got a question about resetting my user password | 18:09 |
| thereevis26 | anybody know how to do it with or without a cd? | 18:10 |
| mofux | any news about 4.4 beta 1 packages? | 18:11 |
| tsimpson | thereevis26: you'd need to be able to access an account with sudo privileges or root | 18:11 |
| tsimpson | mofux: not yet | 18:11 |
| mofux | :'( | 18:11 |
| tsimpson | thereevis26: or just boot into recovery mode | 18:11 |
| thereevis26 | i did that | 18:12 |
| thereevis26 | all i could reset was the root password but not the user | 18:12 |
| tsimpson | you need to put your username after "passwd" | 18:12 |
| thereevis26 | oh i c | 18:13 |
| tsimpson | so like "passwd myuser" | 18:13 |
| thereevis26 | gotcha | 18:13 |
| thereevis26 | thanks alot | 18:13 |
| tsimpson | no problem | 18:13 |
| thereevis26 | so just passwd is the root and passwd myuser is the actual user | 18:13 |
| tsimpson | passwd just defaults to whatever use us running the command | 18:13 |
| Galvatron | HI | 18:14 |
| tsimpson | *user is | 18:14 |
| Galvatron | After an update my kubuntu 9.04 stopped detecting my printer HP Deskjest 3420 | 18:14 |
| thereevis26 | oh so if there is no user i won't reset that user automatically | 18:15 |
| thereevis26 | makes more sense | 18:15 |
| tsimpson | if you run the command as root, but don't specify the user, it sets the password for root | 18:15 |
| thereevis26 | i am starting to learn more about this system as time goes | 18:16 |

| Jayce | btw kolia I'm loving WICD ;) | 20:22 |
| Kolia | hey :) | 20:22 |
| Kolia | Jayce: sudo apt-get update first | 20:23 |

| simo_ | More information is available in the detailed report. | 20:23 |
| Jayce | add PPA, update, add GPG key, update, install kde? | 20:23 |
| Kolia | what did you try to install? kubuntu-desktop? | 20:23 |
| r00t_ninja | make sure you are updated | 20:23 |
| Jayce | the guide said apt-get install kde, so I went with that | 20:23 |
| Kolia | Jayce: i don't think there is a "kde" package | 20:23 |
| Kolia | huh? | 20:23 |
| r00t_ninja | go into software updates and click refresh simo_ | 20:23 |

| prefrontal | the Kubuntu website contains no clear path to the network upgrade instructions | 21:22 |

| prefrontal | hardy, intrepid jaunty and karmic are all supported. therefore the download page on the kubuntu website should contain a drop down that allows you to easily download those images | 21:24 |

| cragdor | Orion777, xorg file is missing by default to nvidia-settings will complain it can't find it or it is incomplete, you need to create a skeleton file first! | 21:49 |
| Orion777 | it said validation error, package not found, backing it up, new X configuration file written to (path) | 21:50 |
| Orion777 | is that right? | 21:50 |
| cragdor | Orion777, drop to konsole then, sudo nano -w /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 21:51 |
| r00t_ninja | should have worked | 21:51 |

| Orion777 | sigh | 21:52 |
| Orion777 | so basically upgrading to 4.3.4 corrupted things? | 21:52 |
| Orion777 | I only had kubuntu for a day | 21:53 |
| r00t_ninja | are you using jaunty? | 21:53 |
| cragdor | Orion777, Are you trying to get multi monitor working, or overide options on the nvidia driver | 21:53 |
| Orion777 | override color and digital vibrance and stuff | 21:53 |
| Orion777 | contrast, gamma | 21:54 |
| cragdor | ok, you need to create a xorg file with just a sections for device and screen, xorg file with karmic is just used to overide defaults now | 21:54 |
| r00t_ninja | Orion777: ill try it out on my nvidia box | 21:54 |
| r00t_ninja | brb | 21:54 |
| cragdor | what model is your graphics cards? | 21:55 |
| Orion777 | gf 8200m | 21:55 |
| rohdef | ok, I can set the resolutions differently on the screens, but then it just sets it and crop the image on the small screen, but how do I make it stop mirroring? | 21:55 |
| BluesKaj | Orion777, have you installed the nvidia-glx-185 driver ? | 21:55 |
| cragdor | how many monitors do you have?# | 21:56 |
| rohdef | 2, 1 laptop 1 dell | 21:56 |
| rohdef | here's the image from the Multiple Monitors settings from the System Settings->Display http://imagebin.ca/view/XYbAx5t.html | 21:57 |
| rohdef | hmm found some commands that might do the trick, although not optimal, I'll try | 21:58 |
| cragdor | Orion777, do you know the options for the xorg before you upgraded? | 21:58 |
| cragdor | e.g the options in the xorg.conf? | 21:59 |
| BluesKaj | cragdor, suggesting someone copy your xorg.conf file is risky advice | 22:00 |
| cragdor | ok well you can review this: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/337585/ it is just the overide settings for nvidia cards on the new karmic version | 22:01 |
| r00t_ninja | i found the work around | 22:02 |
| r00t_ninja | run nvidia-settings -l on boot | 22:02 |
| cragdor | use with multi monitors, uncomment the TwinViewXineramaInfoOrder if you want to change the primary monitor, add additional options as nessary | 22:02 |
| === goblin is now known as _goblin | ||
| rohdef | can I somehow add information to the bot in case the same question as mine arises? | 22:02 |
| Orion777 | k, I saved the configuration file both ways in kdesudo nvidia-settings, still won't remember | 22:03 |
| r00t_ninja | orion777: to load it run the command nvidia0settings -l | 22:03 |
| r00t_ninja | orion777: to load it run the command nvidia-settings -l | 22:03 |
| r00t_ninja | you will need to add that to kde startup | 22:03 |
| tech404 | What would be the best way to connect to a virtual guests xorg from the host? I want to set the host to be as striped down as possible and just connect to X on the VM from the host. | 22:04 |
| Orion777 | -1? | 22:05 |
| r00t_ninja | -l = --load-configuration | 22:05 |
| tech404 | I was thinking that just exporting the display would be slow over the virtual network | 22:05 |
| Orion777 | I did just run sudo nvidia-xconfig and is this result better? | 22:05 |
| Orion777 | Using X configuration file: "/etc/X11/xorg.conf". | 22:05 |
| Orion777 | Backed up file '/etc/X11/xorg.conf' as '/etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup' | 22:05 |
| Orion777 | New X configuration file written to '/etc/X11/xorg.conf' | 22:05 |
| FloodBotK3 | Orion777: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 22:05 |
| cragdor | Orion777, you will need to open the newly created xorg file and add the options to the driver you require, a list of options is avalible here: http://http.download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86/1.0-8774/README/appendix-d.html | 22:07 |
| r00t_ninja | Orion777: go into system-settings , the advanced tab and then autostart | 22:07 |
| Orion777 | then add script? | 22:08 |
| r00t_ninja | i think so | 22:08 |
| r00t_ninja | you should probably put the full path | 22:09 |
| r00t_ninja | /usr/bin/nvidia-settings -l | 22:09 |
| Orion777 | create as symlink? | 22:09 |
| r00t_ninja | yes | 22:09 |

| zegenie_ | hmmm .. anyone have any idea when the 4.4 beta 1 packages are out? :) | 22:10 |
| Orion777 | startup or pre-kde startup? | 22:10 |
| r00t_ninja | try pre-kde startup | 22:10 |
| Orion777 | k ty | 22:11 |
| r00t_ninja | i think that starts it at the login manager | 22:11 |
| Orion777 | gonna test it, brb | 22:12 |
| Orion777 | it just opens xorg.config in kate when I add it to startup | 22:19 |
| Orion777 | gives an error, krunner is no longer running or open | 22:19 |
| manyje1 | is there someone how could help me with a scanner problem? | 22:20 |
| r00t_ninja | problem? | 22:20 |
| r00t_ninja | dont ask to ask just ask | 22:20 |
| manyje1 | i have a HP scanjet 5300c and ubuntu linux. i am trying to get this thing to work but i won't find it. it is connected throu a serial port not USB | 22:22 |
| manyje1 | any idea? i am pretty new at this. hehe | 22:22 |
| Orion777 | rootninja-adding it to autostart doesn't run the script, just opens it in kate | 22:22 |
| ryann | i've recently fresh installed, and i noticed there is no /boot/grub/menu.lst | 22:23 |
| ryann | can someone familiarize me with what's changed so that I can add some new boot options? | 22:23 |
| Orion777 | is it really that complicated to set up a video card | 22:23 |
| r00t_ninja | Orion777: remove that from startup | 22:23 |

| joshjtl | hey folks how do get "Newly installed applications" into my kmenu? | 22:32 |
| Orion777 | where is /kde? | 22:34 |
| vokimon_ | anyone having problems in lucid with kde_greet getting in an infinite loop? | 22:35 |
| BluesKaj | lucid? | 22:35 |
| vokimon_ | yep | 22:36 |
| BluesKaj | not many have access to lucid yet | 22:36 |
| r00t_ninja | Orion777: its ~/.kde | 22:36 |
| r00t_ninja | ~ = your home folder | 22:36 |
| Orion777 | there's no kde folder in home | 22:37 |
| vokimon_ | i would like to report the problem but it is not clear what does it causes it | 22:37 |
| r00t_ninja | just open up your homefolder in dolphin | 22:37 |
| BluesKaj | vokimon_, where did you get lucid? | 22:37 |
| Orion777 | did that | 22:37 |
| gorgonizer | vokimon_: black screen, mouse cursor that continually indicates that it is loading? | 22:37 |
| r00t_ninja | -click view -> show hidden folders | 22:37 |
| vokimon_ | just change karmic -> lucid in your sources.list | 22:37 |
| r00t_ninja | im mean hidden files | 22:37 |
| r00t_ninja | the go into the .kde folder | 22:38 |
| vokimon_ | but you can end like me with an unusable system | 22:38 |
| r00t_ninja | then Autostart | 22:38 |
| BluesKaj | nope, not a good idea since the officail alpha date isn't for 2 more days | 22:38 |
| vokimon_ | and going back to debian | 22:38 |
| r00t_ninja | and put that script in there | 22:38 |
| Morydd | Can anyone tell me why I'd get multiple instances of a dialog from kde-apport asking for my password? | 22:38 |
| Orion777 | k, now when I restart it should work? | 22:38 |
| IpSe_DiXiT | hi i need to upgrade Amarok from 1.4 on 2.2 on Ubuntu, i found this tutorial online http://monespaceperso.org/blog-en/2009/03/15/how-to-install-amarok-2-on-ubuntu-810/ and would like to know if I do as it says, will it upgrade it or what? will it keep my ratings and everything? do i need to unistall the 1.4 first? (asking here cuz so they suggested on #amarok) THANKS :D | 22:38 |
| vokimon_ | it does not mean that we could test it | 22:39 |
| FloodBotK3 | !netsplit | 22:39 |
| ubottu | netsplit is when two IRC servers of the same network (like freenode) disconnect from each other, so users on one server stop seeing users on the other. If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit | 22:39 |
| BluesKaj | vokimon_, well go ahead , you can't expect help for a version that isn't even i alpha yet | 22:39 |
| vokimon_ | i am not asking for help | 22:40 |
| IpSe_DiXiT | vokimon_: talking to me? didnt ask if u can test it for me, just asked what would happen according to ur knowledge :D | 22:40 |
| Morydd | IpSe_DiXiT: I haven't done it in some time, but from my experience amarok 1 and amarok 2 are basically entirely different apps | 22:40 |
| joshjtl | hey folks how do get "Newly installed applications" into my kmenu? | 22:40 |
| IpSe_DiXiT | Morydd: so what are you trying to tell me :D ? | 22:40 |
| [[[-ArGuZ-]]] | HI | 22:40 |
| vokimon_ | BluesKaj: I am just wanting to report | 22:40 |
| vokimon_ | BluesKaj: a bug | 22:40 |
| Morydd | IpSe_DiXiT: unless they've sigificantly improved Amarok 2, I wouldn't upgrade at all. | 22:41 |
| IpSe_DiXiT | Morydd: why so? | 22:41 |
| Morydd | again, it's been a while since I attempted, but many things I liked about Amarok were just missing from Amarok 2 (musicbrainz interface, podcasts) | 22:42 |

| Orion777 | only change it for my username but not for admin etc? | 22:45 |
| r00t_ninja | yes | 22:45 |
| Orion777 | and how to disable password for wallet? | 22:46 |
| r00t_ninja | go into the kmenu | 22:46 |
| r00t_ninja | and search wallet | 22:46 |
| r00t_ninja | open up the wallet management tool | 22:46 |
| === dione is now known as DioneMunir | ||
| r00t_ninja | click on the wallet you want to change the password for - probably kdewallet | 22:47 |
| r00t_ninja | a new window will come up | 22:47 |
| r00t_ninja | in that window click file -> change password and set the password to nothing | 22:47 |
| Orion777 | k thanks | 22:48 |
| Orion777 | I will restart, wish me luck with the video card | 22:48 |
| r00t_ninja | Orion777: you made that script in ~/.kde/Autostart executable right? | 22:49 |
| Orion777 | yes | 22:49 |
| r00t_ninja | ok good | 22:49 |
| ryann | i've recently fresh installed, and i noticed there is no /boot/grub/menu.lst but i am able to make changes using startupmanager. Any ideas what's going on here? Grub version 1.97 | 22:49 |
| r00t_ninja | it should work then | 22:49 |
| RiotingPacifist | ryann: grub2 uses /boot/grub/grub.cfg for configuration (or /etc/defaults/grub as an easier way to edit) | 22:50 |
| BluesKaj | !grub | ryann, in the terminal , sudo grub-update , then read this: | 22:51 |
| ubottu | ryann, in the terminal , sudo grub-update , then read this:: grub is the default boot manager for Ubuntu releases before Karmic (9.10). Lost GRUB after installing Windows?

| r00t_ninja | ? | 22:57 |
| Orion777 | nvidia-settings -l doesn't do it, even in terminal or autostart | 22:58 |
| Orion777 | but kdesudo nvidia-settings does it every time | 22:58 |
| r00t_ninja | open up nvidia-settings without root | 22:58 |
| r00t_ninja | eg just nvidia-settings | 22:58 |
| r00t_ninja | and then change the settings | 22:58 |
| ryann | i found everything i needed in /etc/defaults/grub | 22:58 |
| ryann | thank you very much! | 22:58 |
| r00t_ninja | Orion777: nvidia-settings -l probably looks in your home direcotry and because youve been running it as root the settings are only in roots home folder | 22:59 |
| r00t_ninja | Orion777: you there? | 23:01 |
| Orion777 | yes | 23:03 |
| r00t_ninja | did you run nvidia-settings without root/ | 23:03 |
| r00t_ninja | ? | 23:03 |
| Orion777 | right now it says ~$ | 23:03 |
| Orion777 | as the path | 23:03 |
| r00t_ninja | run nvidia-settings | 23:04 |
| r00t_ninja | and configure your brightness | 23:04 |
| r00t_ninja | and other stuff | 23:04 |
| Orion777 | did that | 23:04 |
| r00t_ninja | without root? | 23:04 |
| Orion777 | all I know is I'm running it from ~ | 23:05 |
| r00t_ninja | ok but you didnt use sudo | 23:05 |
| r00t_ninja | or kdesudo | 23:05 |
| Orion777 | username@username ~$ | 23:05 |
| Orion777 | right | 23:05 |
| r00t_ninja | after that the script should work | 23:06 |
| Orion777 | I don't need to save it? | 23:06 |
| r00t_ninja | no | 23:06 |
| r00t_ninja | if its brightness and stuff make sure you clicked accept | 23:07 |
| Orion777 | strangely it won't let me confirm it anymore, it was letting me a minute ok but I missed the timeout, but the digital vibrance was already correct and that did not autostart | 23:07 |
| Orion777 | you're saying just by having opened it at all, it should register something new? | 23:07 |
| Orion777 | in the system | 23:08 |
| r00t_ninja | wait lets start from the beginning | 23:08 |
| r00t_ninja | open up a terminal | 23:08 |
| r00t_ninja | and type nvidia-settings | 23:08 |
| Orion777 | yes, my digital vibrance setting is in there | 23:09 |
| r00t_ninja | make sure all the brightness settings are right | 23:09 |
| r00t_ninja | ok | 23:09 |
| Orion777 | but it has always been in there | 23:09 |
| Orion777 | if I restart I'm sure it will let me confirm the brightness settings etc | 23:09 |
| r00t_ninja | let me just try something on my nvidia box | 23:09 |
| Orion777 | I'm just wondering why it won't load the dig vib setting unless I run kdesudo nvidia- settings | 23:10 |
| Orion777 | in otherwords, if I could have a script that runs that and then closes it, it would work | 23:10 |
| Orion777 | but it always asks for admin password each time it loads so I'd have to remove my admin password | 23:11 |
| Orion777 | or script to auto enter it | 23:11 |
| r00t_ninja | paste bin the contents of the script | 23:12 |
| Orion777 | because for some reason auto start nvidia-settings -l doesn't register | 23:12 |
| Orion777 | which script | 23:12 |
| r00t_ninja | thats in ~/.kde/Autostart | 23:12 |
| r00t_ninja | also make sure you change your digital vibrance settings without kdesudo | 23:13 |
| r00t_ninja | and accept them | 23:13 |
| Orion777 | #!/bin/bash | 23:15 |
| Orion777 | nvidia-settings -l | 23:15 |
| Orion777 | that's in the script | 23:15 |
| Orion777 | there is no accept for dig vibrance | 23:15 |
| Orion777 | it just remembers it | 23:15 |
| Orion777 | but I can save the config file | 23:15 |
| Orion777 | there's two options, save x config file, save current configuration | 23:16 |
| r00t_ninja | no | 23:16 |
| r00t_ninja | a little countdown appears in the bottom righ corner | 23:16 |
| r00t_ninja | wait | 23:16 |
| r00t_ninja | so when you open up nvidia-setitngs again it rememberrs it | 23:16 |
| Orion777 | yes, that coundown appears for bright/contr/gamma but not for dig vibrance | 23:17 |
| r00t_ninja | ok | 23:17 |
| r00t_ninja | but it still remembers it? | 23:17 |
| Orion777 | only the dig vibrance | 23:17 |
| r00t_ninja | log out and log back in | 23:17 |

| Orion777 | yes, thank you | 23:37 |
| r00t_ninja | np | 23:37 |
