|---|---|---|
| Squarc | well anyway... I've this Kubuntu installation and everything works fine.. but when I go to tty1 (ctrl+alt+F1) I get all sorts of colors on my screen,, and (wierd) characters all over the screen, some of which are flashing/blinking.. and it lookes a lot like a BSOD screensave I have | 00:28 |
| Squarc | but it's not a BSOD.. or well. I am able to switch back to tty7 (KDE)... and everything works fine again | 00:31 |

| jesse2 | Hello. Does anyone know how i can group similar applications on my panel (for example, instead of having 3 entries for firefox, it just has one and i can click on that to show all 3) | 00:32 |
| jesse2 | ? | 00:32 |
| pete_^ | jesse2: the closest I think you can get would be putting them inside a quick access which points to a directory with the applications requested in | 00:36 |
| jesse2 | what i mean is if im running 3 firefoxes | 00:36 |
| jesse2 | instead of them each having their own entry on the task bar, can i have them grouped? | 00:37 |
| Dragnslcr | jesse2- right-click the task manager, go to settings, and change the grouping | 00:38 |
| pete_^ | jesse2: it groups when it gets to a certain threshold of being filled, there is an option to make it always happen | 00:38 |
| pete_^ | there we go | 00:38 |
| jesse2 | thanks! | 00:38 |

| luis_ | i feel ubuntu heavier than kubuntu | 02:48 |
| luis_ | xubuntu is liter but its like to.................. i don't know i just feel more limited with xubuntu despite the fact is faster than the others | 02:50 |
| luis_ | and the fastest i have found is puppy | 02:50 |

| maco | any chance you're running the wrong kernel? | 04:51 |
| maco | uname -a | 04:51 |
| njathan | maco: i am running on 2.6.28-15, coz kubuntu refuses to boot (just gives a blank screen) with the latest kernel | 04:52 |
| maco | ugh. well, thats probably why your touchpad doesnt work | 04:53 |
| maco | and id guess its not refusing to boot, just X breakage | 04:53 |
| maco | if you install openssh-server i bet you can get into the machine after its booted to blank | 04:53 |
| njathan | maco: i never get to see the 'loading' bar.. and any subsequent screens | 04:54 |
| maco | try booting without "quiet splash" and see if itll show you an error | 04:55 |
| njathan | maco: i am trying that... but looks like it eventually goes to the splash after a certain stage in the boot process... i now have a blank black screen | 04:57 |
| njathan | maco: nor does CTRL-ALT-F1, CTRL-ALT-F2 etc work | 04:58 |
| maco | what graphics card? | 04:58 |
| njathan | maco: is there a linux way of finding out? i cannot find the papers which had it written :-P | 05:03 |

| maco | it doesnt give a number, does it? | 05:05 |
| maco | like 965 or 945? | 05:05 |
| dtchen | mobile 4 has been supported since xserver-xorg-intel 2.4.0 | 05:08 |
| === xXTheBoxXx is now known as TheBox | ||
| njathan | Display controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 4 series chipset Integrated Graphics Controller #4 (rev 07) | 05:08 |
| njathan | maco: thats what the complete line reads like | 05:08 |
| njathan | maco: and similar for 'Host Bridge' and 'VGA Compatible Controller' | 05:08 |
| scunizi | njathan: is this a laptop or desktop? | 05:09 |
| njathan | maco: i am seeing this the older kernel i have booted from | 05:09 |
| njathan | scunizi: this is a lenovo g550 laptop | 05:09 |
| scunizi | njathan: k.. not sure if this wil help but do you know if it's using a gforce chipset? | 05:10 |
| maco | scunizi: intel graphics, not nvidia | 05:11 |
| scunizi | maco: do they ever combine intel graphics with a gforce motherboard chipset? probably not.. no reason to | 05:12 |
| dtchen | geforce never has intel graphics | 05:12 |
| dtchen | it's an NVidia north and southbridge | 05:12 |
| scunizi | my bad | 05:12 |
| dtchen | (which means you get the joy of an NVidia audio controller, too. Ugh.) | 05:13 |
| dtchen | I'm only referring to geforce mobile, sorry. | 05:13 |
| scunizi | not sure if it applies to the intel boards or not.. but occationally there is a conflict in the pci buss that is solved (on my system) with a kernel boot option of pci=nomsi | 05:14 |
| dtchen | that's mostly resolved in newer amd chipsets | 05:15 |
| dtchen | there is no small part played by crappy bioses, too... | 05:15 |
| njathan | scunizi, maco: i have no way to find out the exact model number, as i only have a broken kubuntu on the laptop (the purchase papers? i searching...! ) | 05:16 |
| scunizi | dtchen: my board is maybe a year old.. but it might be a bios thing. | 05:16 |
| maco | sudo lshw, maybe? | 05:16 |
| kayve | M7818u | 05:19 |
| maco | kayve: ??? | 05:21 |

| cheeko | ok mace now im relly gettig this errpr message | 05:22 |
| scunizi | is there a way to track the battery level on a laptop via cli? | 05:23 |
| maco | scunizi: acpi -b | 05:23 |
| scunizi | maco: thanks! | 05:23 |
| cheeko | maco: whenever i install ubuntu inside windows whaen i boot into ubuntu it says init too long an it freezes | 05:24 |
| njathan | maco: nevertheless is there a way to get the touchpad working in the older kernel that i have? | 05:24 |
| scunizi | maco: how accurate is it typically? | 05:24 |
| maco | scunizi: it can only estimate based on current power consumption. if it says 30 minutes and then you start up Folding @ Home and use 100% CPU and turn your backlight brightness up....well, that'll have an effect | 05:25 |
| scunizi | maco: if I detach screen and shutdown gdm then things will last longer? | 05:26 |
| maco | i think you just wanna look into general power save stuff | 05:26 |
| maco | dtchen tends to unload his sound drivers. we both unload networking drivers (wifi is VERY battery intensive), and i like to keep my backlight low | 05:27 |
| mfonda | I prefer to use nm-applet instead of knetworkmanager -- how can I make nm-applet start up by default instead of knetworkmanager? | 05:27 |
| scunizi | maco: understandable stuff.. I was thinking that running from terminal with the desktop shutdown should also save some cycles and power | 05:29 |
| maco | yep yep | 05:29 |
| njathan | is there a way to downgrade from 9.10 to 9.04? | 05:29 |
| scunizi | njathan: reinstall | 05:29 |
| maco | mfonda: in system settings there's an autostart section | 05:29 |
| njathan | scunizi: i dont want to lose all my data, as i have just one '/' partition :-( | 05:31 |
| scunizi | njathan: if it's big enough you can create a seperate partition, copy your stuff to it and use it for /home on the reinstall.. that is unless you also have lots of configs in /var /bin etc for web server mysql etc. | 05:32 |
| maco | njathan: it doesnt delete /home | 05:33 |
| maco | njathan: if you choose manual partition instead of guided then choose the same partition | 05:34 |
| maco | then choose the same filesystem type (ext3, im guessing?) and choose to NOT format | 05:34 |
| maco | itll save your /home | 05:34 |
| maco | without having a separate partition | 05:35 |

| ||arifaX | hi, I am installing karmic. what are the differences between the options * use password to logon and * use password and decrypt... (the rest is unreadable). I manually partitioned and if possible don't want encryption | 08:21 |
| ||arifaX | no one? | 08:27 |
| maco | if you choose "use password to login" it means you go to a login screen | 08:29 |
| maco | not automatic login | 08:29 |
| ||arifaX | maco thats clear | 08:29 |
| maco | if you choose "use password and decrypt home directory" that means you have encryption | 08:29 |
| maco | so go with "use password" | 08:29 |
| ||arifaX | if I do only choose use password to logon, then I have no encryption? - thats what I want since I had a lot of ecryptfs errors on my other machine | 08:29 |
| maco | thats right | 08:30 |
| ||arifaX | thanks | 08:30 |
| maco | no problem | 08:30 |

| maco | can you fix the translations in launchpad.net/ubuntu ? | 08:31 |
| ||arifaX | maco: I think it is well translated but the strings are to long to display I think | 08:31 |

| Segregation | Hello and good morning people. I have 2 questions regarding firefox and behavior. First off: Everytime i open a downloaded file through the download window in firefox it automaticly opens up a dolphin window aswell. I would like to modify this behavior so that it only opens up the file. anyone got an idea ? | 09:44 |
| Segregation | second question is: when i try to install a package from playdeb i get the message: Firefox doesn't know how to open this address, because the protocol (apt) isn't associated with any program. anyone able to help me crack the nut ? | 09:44 |
| Segregation | i have installed apturl | 09:45 |
| maco | is a bug | 09:45 |
| Segregation | k | 09:45 |
| maco | i think you need to go to edit -> preferences | 09:45 |
| maco | applications | 09:45 |
| maco | and set gdebi to handle it | 09:45 |
| Segregation | thanks. ill give it a go.- | 09:45 |
| maco | if i had to guess, that is | 09:45 |
| Segregation | what about my first question. any idea? | 09:46 |
| maco | probably same place | 09:46 |
| Segregation | think thats where i chose dolphin to handle the files. was that wrong ? | 09:47 |
| maco | i would guess if you make it not use dolphin then dolphin wont open... | 09:47 |
| Segregation | but then I will get a message from firefox telling me there is no filehandler set to handle my request when i try to open a file from the download window in firefox | 09:48 |
| Segregation | ok thanks. My first problem is solved | 09:50 |
| Segregation | Seccond remains | 09:51 |
| Segregation | maco: do you use kubuntu 9.10 ? | 09:51 |
| maco | not sure then. i know a bug is filed, but i dont know its number | 09:51 |
| maco | yes | 09:51 |
| maco | but i dont tend to use apturls | 09:51 |
| Segregation | could you check the link im trying ? | 09:52 |
| Segregation | http://www.playdeb.net/updates/?q=alien# | 09:52 |
| Segregation | i just found a random from playdeb | 09:52 |
| maco | firefox is broken for me, sorry | 09:52 |
| Segregation | ahh | 09:52 |
| Segregation | what do you use ? | 09:52 |
| maco | arora | 09:52 |
| maco | i normally use firefox, but i broke things and cant start firefox now. i dont care as im wiping the install in a week when i get my good laptop back | 09:53 |
| Segregation | does that handle this types of actions ? | 09:53 |
| maco | i dont think so | 09:53 |
| Segregation | hmm. what about chrome beta ? | 09:53 |
| maco | no idea | 09:54 |
| Segregation | well. thanks atleat for the reply maco. when you said it was a bug, does that mean it cant be fixed atm ? | 09:56 |
| Segregation | the apturl | 09:56 |
| maco | the bug report may have a workaround | 09:56 |

| Segregation | Hi. Im wondering if there is a way to rename your desktop icons graphicaly in KDE4. like in windows, when you just right click then rename and its done. Im getting the message about permissions, so its obviously a sudo command from terminal. but thats a long way and many clicks less effichent than just rename in KDE. | 15:21 |
| maco | what desktop icons? | 15:22 |
| Segregation | for instance Firefox | 15:22 |
| Segregation | links/icons | 15:22 |
| maco | so launchers... | 15:22 |
| maco | um... | 15:22 |
| Segregation | yes. that would be the term you know them by | 15:22 |
| Segregation | I dont like having links with 2 lines text | 15:23 |
| maco | mmm nope. i can rename them fine | 15:23 |
| maco | and files can *definitely* be renamed | 15:24 |
| Segregation | this is my 3rd instalation of Kubuntu and its been like this on each of em | 15:24 |
| Segregation | Something you know helped prevnting you from having this problem. | 15:24 |
| maco | i wonder if its a difference between folderview mode and spread-things-all-over mode | 15:24 |
| Segregation | i have it in folder | 15:24 |
| Segregation | So to rename i have to take the long way around | 15:25 |
| maco | and if you right click launchers in the folder view, they dont let you rename easily? | 15:25 |
| Segregation | Could not save properties. You do not have sufficient access to write to /home/beef/Desktop/firefox.desktop. | 15:25 |
| maco | mm maybe a difference in how you make the launchers? | 15:25 |
| maco | did you just copy the /usr/share...whatever.desktop to your Desktop? | 15:25 |
| Segregation | I used the drag/make link here procdesure | 15:26 |
| maco | or create a launcher there new | 15:26 |
| maco | ah! i used copy | 15:26 |
| maco | not make link | 15:26 |
| Segregation | Silly me | 15:26 |
| Segregation | hehe | 15:26 |
| maco | its still a root-owned file if you make link | 15:26 |
| Segregation | Well. i still see it as a problem | 15:26 |
| Segregation | that capability is flawed, and it should be made writable from start. when user have made the link | 15:27 |
| maco | then youd need to give sudo password to make the link | 15:27 |
| Segregation | if i did it as root, it would be understandable | 15:27 |
| maco | probably "make link" shouldnt be an option for .desktop files | 15:27 |
| maco | but make link means that its the *same file* | 15:28 |
| maco | so it IS a root owned file | 15:28 |
| Segregation | i think it should. but if a user makes the link it should not need rootpass for edit | 15:28 |
| maco | so of course youd need to be root to edit it | 15:28 |
| maco | are you saying .desktop's should be chown'd to "last user who did make link"? | 15:28 |
| Segregation | is there no way around such a complexed way of making desktoplink renamable ? | 15:28 |
| maco | because then if two users.... that wouldnt work | 15:29 |
| Segregation | this means i have to make over 10 new launchers | 15:29 |
| maco | probably it should just force copy for launchers instead of linking | 15:29 |
| Segregation | its doable. but hardly time-effichent | 15:29 |
| Segregation | good idea | 15:29 |
| Segregation | make link = copy the link, and make it open as a feech made. | 15:29 |
| Segregation | french* | 15:30 |
| maco | well just get rid of the option to make link and dotn show the drop down | 15:30 |
| maco | just make a drag from kickoff mean "copy" always | 15:30 |
| Segregation | kk. thanks | 15:30 |
| maco | Riddell: does this sound do-able? | 15:30 |
| Segregation | Now i know. But i hope someone rethinks that system. Because its a tad anoying. | 15:31 |
| Riddell | right click -> edit menu ? | 15:33 |
| Segregation | thanks for your help maco. have a nice day. | 15:33 |
| maco | Riddell: no when you drag a .desktop from kickoff to the folder view | 15:33 |
| maco | it offers copy or make link | 15:33 |
| maco | but if you make link, you cant rename the .desktop on your Desktop because it's root-owned | 15:34 |
| Riddell | right, you'd need to copy it | 15:34 |
| Riddell | and edit it | 15:34 |
| maco | would it be possible to teach it to ALWAYS copy instead | 15:34 |
| Riddell | I expect there's a configuration option somewhere, but what if one day you wanted to link? | 15:34 |
| maco | why would you? | 15:34 |
| maco | you cant edit them | 15:35 |
| maco | for normal files in dolphin, yeah, havign the link option makes sense i guess, but it seems broken for this | 15:35 |
| Riddell | maybe you don't want to edit them, and you do want it to stay updated with the system file | 15:36 |
| maco | fair enough... is there a way to explain that difference to users other than waiting for them to show up here frustrated? | 15:37 |
| maco | like....can there be mouseover text on the menu items? | 15:37 |
| maco | (dunno if qt can do that) | 15:37 |
| Riddell | you can put a tooltip on anything | 15:37 |
| maco | ok. thanks | 15:40 |

| dersdr | Hello | 16:30 |
| dersdr | A program need a mysql database but i cant find a paket for kubuntu: http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mysql/5.1.html#downloads what can i choose? | 16:31 |
| Vroomfondle | dersdr: just use adept/apt-get/synaptic to install mysql | 16:32 |
| dersdr | Vroomfondle: what is it? I use linux since two days :( | 16:33 |
| Vroomfondle | ah | 16:33 |
| Vroomfondle | in Kubuntu/Ubuntu there is a system called "apt". It allows you to easily install software packages from "repositories" using a GUI or a command-line command. There are thousands of packages in the repositories. | 16:34 |
| Vroomfondle | dersdr: go to K -> Computer -> KPackageKit and search for MySQL | 16:34 |
| dersdr | kk | 16:35 |
| Vroomfondle | dersdr: then find the package named "mysql-server - 5.1.37" | 16:35 |
| Vroomfondle | and click the arrow next to it, then click "Apply" | 16:35 |
| Vroomfondle | it should download & install mysql for you | 16:35 |
| Vroomfondle | you may have to enter your password. | 16:36 |
| === kb is now known as Guest15713 | ||
| dersdr | Vroomfondle: i cant click on "apply" it was grey. | 16:37 |
| dersdr | only ok or cancle | 16:37 |
| Vroomfondle | dersdr: did you click the arrow next to mysql? | 16:38 |
| dersdr | there was a X | 16:38 |
| dersdr | no arrow | 16:39 |
| Vroomfondle | Oh. That means it's already installed, dersdr | 16:39 |
| Vroomfondle | clicking on the "X" would remove it. | 16:39 |
| dersdr | :( | 16:39 |
| Vroomfondle | so you don't need to install it - you already have it :) | 16:39 |
| dersdr | hmm | 16:40 |
| Vroomfondle | you definitely looked at mysql-server? not mysql-server-core? | 16:40 |
| dersdr | yes | 16:41 |
| Vroomfondle | what software are you trying to install which requires mysql? | 16:41 |
| dersdr | if i write "mysql" under the shell i become the error " cant connect to local mysql server through socket 'var/run/mysql/mysqld.sock' (2) | 16:42 |
| Vroomfondle | dersdr: do "sudo /etc/init.d/mysql start" | 16:44 |
| Vroomfondle | then enter your user password | 16:44 |

| mw | not breaking off completely. after about 20 mb, the connection speed goes down to 200 bytes/sec (it actually works, the data received is correct, but way too slow). after trying w/ winxp, i can say that the problem is NOT the wireless device itself, but must be something with the driver. i would appreciate any ideas. | 17:50 |

| Vroomfondle | hrm, oh dear. Are there any roman characters whatsoever in the name? | 19:10 |
| Vroomfondle | because then you might be able to insert a wildcard instead of the chinese characters | 19:10 |
| olimpico | Vroomfondle: Yes, but not at the beginning | 19:10 |
| Vroomfondle | like "mv *yfolder myfolder" | 19:10 |
| olimpico | Vroomfondle: But how? | 19:10 |
| Vroomfondle | or "mv *yfolde* myfolder" | 19:11 |

| jesse2 | hello. running kubuntu 9.04. when i try to log off/shutdown/reboot via the kde Application Launcher, nothing happens. does anyone know what the reason could be? | 19:56 |
| Guest75591 | jesse, tried updating kubuntu? | 19:59 |
| Guest75591 | I mean kde | 19:59 |
| jesse2 | yes, im running 4.4.3 i believe | 19:59 |
| === Guest75591 is now known as Orion737 | ||
| Orion737 | did it have this problem before the update? | 20:00 |
| jesse2 | im not sure... this is a pretty new install (just last night). i did a fresh install, booted it up, upgraded everything and downloaded some other apps | 20:01 |
| Orion737 | see, I'm using kubuntu 9.10 with the newest kde and I don't know what bug I *havn't* encountered ;) | 20:01 |
| jesse2 | and was unable to logoff/shutdonw/etc | 20:01 |
| jesse2 | :) | 20:01 |
| jesse2 | me too | 20:01 |
| Orion737 | and you forced it to turn off right? | 20:01 |
| NoobCp | Wel, newer,the other one was a 4+year old laptop, some radeon | 20:02 |
| jesse2 | right | 20:02 |
| Orion737 | does it work correctly now? | 20:02 |
| NoobCp | this one i Intel GM965 | 20:02 |
| jesse2 | negative, i cant logoff or shutdown | 20:02 |
| Orion737 | ouch | 20:02 |
| jesse2 | is there a way i can view the console and see any error messages? | 20:02 |
| jesse2 | or a log? | 20:02 |
| Orion737 | one sec | 20:02 |
| jesse2 | thanks | 20:03 |
| frozen | systemmonitor i think | 20:03 |
| Orion737 | ksystemlog | 20:03 |
| frozen | yeah systemlog it was | 20:04 |
| jesse2 | hmmm when i attempt to log off nothing changes in the system update | 20:04 |
| Orion737 | that's causeit isn't doing anything hehe | 20:05 |
| jesse2 | haha yeah | 20:05 |
| jesse2 | though i was hoping it would give an error message | 20:05 |
| Orion737 | the question is how to repair the os when it gets corrupt | 20:06 |
| frozen | tried recovery mode? | 20:06 |
| jesse2 | hmm, no i havent. what would i do once ive entered recovery mode? | 20:07 |
| Orion737 | recovery mode is all terminal command line though | 20:07 |
| frozen | yes | 20:07 |
| jesse2 | oh | 20:08 |
| jesse2 | i havent run linux since the 90s; does startx still start x? :) | 20:08 |
| Orion737 | jesse2, I found stuff about this problem online | 20:09 |
| jesse2 | thanks! may i have a link? | 20:09 |
| Orion737 | you can shutdown or restart still through the command line or there is also a workaround | 20:09 |
| Orion737 | well this is a preliminary one but I'll try to find others also http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=7806322 | 20:10 |
| jesse2 | thanks! | 20:11 |
| NoobCp | One thing is for sure, I'musing up more CPU on this computer | 20:11 |
| sena | kubuntu ftw | 20:15 |
| cragdor | Yeah, i dissabled the sounds too! KDE's shutdown sound is too long, i just want it to shutdown as quickly as possible, not wait to finish playing a sound effect | 20:16 |
| Orion737 | jesse2, and this https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kubuntu-meta/+bug/405522 | 20:19 |

| swilhelm | are there people with practical experiences off kubuntu netbook release on a real netbook | 21:22 |
| swilhelm | (not on a virtual machine or equal) | 21:22 |
| swilhelm | have it running on a msi u100 and wondering about several things like powermanagement | 21:23 |
| swilhelm | seem that the provided kernel has some troubles with it? | 21:23 |
| swilhelm | using one of the earlier kernels suspend to ram did working, since some kernel upgrade, suspend to ram is | 21:24 |
| swilhelm | lost | 21:24 |
| swilhelm | also the display power management has very crazy effects, flickering from 100% to 0% display light and back | 21:26 |
| rafasmart | hey guys | 21:28 |

| simo_ | hi | 21:30 |
| simo_ | could someone point me in the right direction of installing a new hard drive to my kubuntu system? (complete newbie..) | 21:30 |
| swilhelm | simo_: some shell experiences, as primary disk (exchanging the current primary), as second, with lvm,..??? | 21:32 |
| simo_ | :o | 21:32 |
| simo_ | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingANewHardDrive | 21:33 |
| simo_ | i remember trying to follow this guide but messing something up.. | 21:33 |
| swilhelm | didn't read that guide, have long enought experiences :) | 21:34 |
| swilhelm | do you want to replace a disk, or do you want it as a second drive? | 21:34 |
| simo_ | second =) | 21:35 |
| swilhelm | so you have the disk in your system already? | 21:35 |
| simo_ | yes | 21:36 |
| simo_ | just plugged in nothing rly done to it | 21:36 |
| swilhelm | ok | 21:36 |
| swilhelm | usb drive or sata? | 21:36 |
| simo_ | sata | 21:36 |
| swilhelm | what did dmesg told you? what device is it? /dev/sdb, /dev/sdc,? | 21:37 |
| simo_ | lemme check | 21:37 |
| simo_ | hmm | 21:39 |
| simo_ | any idea how to shorten the output? | 21:40 |
| swilhelm | something like that: [ 2.404975] sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] 312581808 512-byte logical blocks: (160 GB/149 GiB) | 21:41 |

| swilhelm | I won't like to crash any existing data, so it is very helpful that I don't have to ask you every little aspect | 21:48 |
| swilhelm | it's much more helpful if you describe what do you wish | 21:48 |

| olso | hello | 22:07 |
| BlueX | is 64bit usually less stable than 32? | 22:09 |
| olso | I think | 22:09 |
| BlueX | me too | 22:09 |
| olso | do you test Ubuntu 10 afla? | 22:10 |
| cragdor | Stability is good from my point, i've had very little difficulty with my x64 linux | 22:10 |
| BlueX | I've had nothing but problems with kubuntu 9.10 | 22:11 |
| BlueX | its buggy, it crashes, and the support for my wireless card sucks | 22:11 |
| BlueX | widgets glitch out, firefox glitches out | 22:12 |
| cragdor | Strange, i've had no issues at all! | 22:12 |
| BlueX | you're using 64bit kubuntu 9.10? | 22:12 |
| BlueX | and newest kde? | 22:12 |
| cragdor | yep, other than mapping the new x64 sun jvm to firefox no issues | 22:13 |
| BlueX | mapping the new x64 sun jvm to firefox? that's the 64bit version of java? | 22:14 |
| cragdor | O yes and Adobe AIR is only 32bit, but i don't use that and we will have x64bit version before windows | 22:14 |
| cragdor | Yes the x64bit version of java | 22:14 |
| cragdor | The plugin for x64 java is named different | 22:15 |
| BlueX | hmm, I thought installing the newest version of flash player would help but it made it worse | 22:15 |
| BlueX | do you have nvidia card? | 22:15 |
| cragdor | Yep, with multi head, 1920x1050, and 1280 x 1024 | 22:16 |
| BlueX | ok so its not my graphics card | 22:16 |
| BlueX | but supposedly atheros wireless cards do not have good support with ubuntu | 22:16 |
| BlueX | which would explain that problem | 22:17 |
| BlueX | but yeah, both firefox and opera have the same flash glitches for me | 22:17 |
| cragdor | Erm their not great but it shouldn't cause it to crash! If you are using stable repositories | 22:17 |
| BlueX | but strangely it was like that with default flash and the newer version | 22:17 |
| cragdor | Flash glitches? Hmmm you might be using an opensource flash and java virtual machine! | 22:18 |
| === olso is now known as Tortue | ||
| BlueX | well, the first flash version came from updating konqueror | 22:18 |
| BlueX | the second flash version came from the official adobe site | 22:19 |
| cragdor | I'll dig out the destruction... i mean instructions for Adobe x64 Flash, and Sun Java x64 | 22:19 |
| BlueX | I don't even have java installed yet | 22:19 |
| BlueX | so you think the problem might be that I have the wrong versions? | 22:19 |
| cragdor | You will it will be called 'Ice Tea' | 22:19 |
| === luis__lopez is now known as luis_lopez | ||
| BlueX | yes, I don't have iced tea installed | 22:20 |
| cragdor | 32bit programs do not run well inside of x64 bit programs | 22:20 |
| BlueX | k, how do I remove the versions I have now? | 22:20 |
| cragdor | Can you give me 30Mins to finish a bit of work and i'll write it up for you | 22:21 |
| BlueX | yes cause I have to reboot anyway, but I might not be here in 30 min..actually no I won't so I'll have to catch up with you later | 22:21 |
| BlueX | thank you for the info! | 22:22 |
| cragdor | No problem we are always here to help if we can | 22:23 |
| soee | is there any program similiar to emule under KDE ? | 22:23 |
