I have my laptop, echoing out to both monitors, with the same desktop, which I don't want, I would like to have an extended desktop spanning the two monitors, if I go to "Multiple Monitors" options, I simply see a message that says it does not appear that you have two monitors [00:16] gkffjcs_: what is the make/model of your graphics chip [00:18] if you are not sure open up konsole and type: lspci | grep VGA [00:18] intel 82852/855GM according [00:18] I can't copy and past the output since I'm running konversation on a different computer. [00:18] ok [00:20] ive only done this with a nvidia card so im not sure if i had another monitor i would try [00:21] right now, I have the same single desktop copied accross both monitors, also, kde does recognize the second monitor as existing, I just can't figure out how to make extended desktop work. [00:22] I don't know if this is right, but I don't think it's a driver problem as much as it is a configuration problem. [00:24] hey guys whats wrong with this line: cmake --release -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=`kde**4**-config --prefix` ../ [00:26] gkffjcs_: could you take screenshots of the Display settings in system settings [00:27] sure.. give me a minute [00:28] sorry im just not sure what it looks like with two monitors plugged in [00:30] what site should I upload it to? Pastebin doesn't seem to have that functionality. [00:30] tinypic maybe [00:30] also try krandrtray [00:33] http://i47.tinypic.com/bwltc.png [00:34] does identify outputs do anything [00:34] It shows both outputs on both displays.. so basically nothing worthwhile [00:35] after you click identify has anything changed in multiple monitors [00:36] Nope [00:38] gkffjcs_: have you opened up krandrtray? [00:38] knetworkmanager dosen't load on startup, how can I fix this? [00:42] yup, and it pretty much does the exact same thing.

[10:43] Mamarok: the nevest [10:43] cojack: if you click on that icon in the upper right corner you get a menu [10:43] emyller: ofcourse [10:43] Mamarok: yes [10:43] read what that menu shows you [10:43] cojack: *there [10:43] add desktop element and others... [10:44] it's in my language, I have problem to translate it [10:44] cojack: don't read it here, read for yourself, does it talk about "Add activity"? [10:44] nope ;/ [10:44] can you show my a screenshot? [10:44] Virtual Desktops are subitems of an Activity. they will inherit the activity settings such as wallpaper [10:44] if not, click on zoom out and you will see your desktop with a menu in the bottom left where you can add another activity with a + sign [10:45] wow [10:45] what is that [10:45] well, click on the + sign and choose "add an activity" [10:46] you mean a plasma widget? [10:46] no [10:46] no, a new activity [10:46] emyller: do you have KDE 4.3.4? [10:47] Mamarok: no :| [10:47] Mamarok: you on 4.4 too? [10:47] yes :) [10:47] Mamarok: I can't find it :( [10:47] cojack: you have a green + sign in the bottom right of the desktop, no? [10:47] no [10:47] wait [10:47] yes ;p [10:47] cojack: explore your plasma desktop and find the add activity option [10:48] it's very easy, i used it on kde4.3.x, but i don't remember exactly where it was [10:48] cojack: in the upper left corner you should have also a menu now [10:50] Mamarok: he will find it :) [10:51] Mamarok: Im still can't find any add activity [10:52] cojack: zoom out your current activity. i am sure you'll find it there. [10:52] In this menu I have add activity, but this option is disabled [10:52] cojack: then you have something missing in your installation [10:53] lol [10:53] hahaha ;p [10:55] cojack: do you have all plasma packages installed? [10:57] cojack: if you install the package kdeplasma-addons that should work, also you should have all kdebase-* packages [10:58] mikrofon jest nieczynny [11:01] how do I install KDE 4.4 b2 without affecting my GNOME install ??? [11:02] one more question, I made a fresh install over a previous ubuntu one, Having the old home folder on a different partition I preserved all the datas, but I preserved also the old file association, and, for example, now my stupid stupid pc tries to open my media with vlc wich is not installed. How should I do? [11:04] maek0: see the topic [11:04] the link gives you all instructions needed, just keep in mind it is a pre-release [11:04] pompa_: the configuration files are in $HOME/.kde/share/config/ [11:05] Mamarok, yeah but that will put KDE stuff in my GNOME menus .. [11:06] maek0: well, can't you disable that in the Gnome menu? [11:06] I remember there was a way to install KDE 4 into /opt/ so it would be separate to the GNOME install [11:06] how can I do that ?? [11:06] maek0: I don't know about that, sorry [11:07] oh okay [11:07] maek0: I remember an option in the Gnome menu not to show KDE apps, once upon a time, maybe they removed that [11:09] Hi there [11:09] !hi | vip [11:09] vip: Hi!

[12:04] fanti: disable the desktop effects, that uses a lot of RAM [12:04] fanti: how much RAM do you have? [12:05] Mamarok: i've 4 gb of ram and 512 mb of dedicated graphics memory [12:05] should be enough, something else running that uses a lot of memory? You can check with top or htop (not installed by default, but much nicer than top) [12:06] not even 50% of the RAM is used [12:06] fanti: which Kubuntu are you running? If it is 9.10, try the radeon driver, works better than the fglrx one [12:06] does the radeon driver support 3d acceleration? [12:09] 4 month ago (last time i checked this), radeon does not support 3d acceleration for my graphics card === reinhold is now known as reinhold_away [12:15] hi === reinhold_away is now known as reinhold [12:21] hi soee [12:30] Mamarok, is filelight a built in tool in kubuntu 9.04?

[21:26] XP still works (dual boot) [21:27] <||arifaX> Roasted: that says nothing. could be that the part of the disk is broken where kubuntu lives [21:27] *shrug* assuming its not the disk, then what? [21:27] its a brand new laptop :( [21:28] well, sorta [21:28] 6 months old now I guess [21:28] Roasted: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [21:28] I was actually in kubuntu too about 10 minutes ago [21:28] and rebooted it [21:28] <||arifaX> Roasted: try to give some boot options to show what it does during boot [21:29] meaning what? [21:31] the other kernel does the same thing in the boot menu [21:31] so much for bringing this laptop home to get caught up on work :/ [21:31] Roasted: boot with the splash disabled to recognize the boot problem [21:31] apparle - how [21:31] my hardware drivers jockey keeps crashing on me, how else can i install my ATI drivers ? [21:32] <||arifaX> Roasted: you can also press ctrl+alt+f1 during boot to see some messages. but the nosplash would be nice. - try that first to find out more [21:32] does anyone read me? [21:32] <||arifaX> dontknow: copy that [21:33] ok! thank you!

It also says to press Ctrl+D when im done [21:36] anyone?? [21:36] i can immediately press Ctrl+D and it continues to boot just fine [21:37] what confuses me most though is that this doesn't always happen on every boot [21:37] trevor: which card? [21:37] ati radeon 3100 [21:37] it works with jockey in gnome, i dont know why jockey isnt working on kde [21:37] apparle - what would have caused this? do you know?

[21:40] i could just try to install envy couldnt i?

Would that case anything? [21:41] !envy | trevor [21:41] trevor: EnvyNG is a program to install newer version of nVidia or ATi drivers, it can be found in !Universe as "envyng-gtk" (for Gtk/Gnome) or "envyng-qt" (for Qt/KDE). It is NOT a supported method to install video drivers; please only use it if standard methods fail and at your own risk - See also !BinaryDriver [21:41] BluesKaj: , why is it not reccomended, do you knpow? [21:42] trevor, it can break your setup badly [21:42] oh lame [21:43] trevor, what driver do you need ? [21:43] trevor: install the package 'sudo apt-get install xorg-driver-fglrx' and then see if jockey works [21:43] !BinaryDriver [21:43] For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto [21:43] trevor: have you refreshed your package list [21:43] I get no options during booting when I hit CTRL ALT F1 [21:43] :( [21:43] then used jockey [21:43] i have refreshed [21:43] also you sometimes have to reboot if youve already run jockey [21:43] its a wierd bug [21:44] trevor: ahhh yes.... you have to refresh them 'sudo apt-get update' is the command [21:44] Roasted: did you try my method [21:44] make sure the driver is actually selected when you click activate [21:44] apparle: i did refresh [21:44] by double clicking the one you wnat [21:44] lol yes it is selected [21:44] trevor: I suggest you install the package I mentioned and then try [21:44] you actually have to click it it appears to be selected by default [21:44] apparle - you said CTRL ALT F1 to see messages. I didnt see any. And I have no idea how to edit it for no splash. It hought that would be it there. [21:44] i will [21:45] how is it possible that I change the screen resolution and reboot and now my system wont function? :( [21:45] Roasted: I didn't suggest that...

[21:49] Roasted: it could be something else because im fairly sure the randr settings are user specific [21:49] Roasted: ok.... when you see grub read the instructions to edit command given and the bottom and follow themm... remove the 'splash quiet' at the end of one command and then boot [21:50] what instructions? [21:50] Roasted: are u able to drop to a shell? [21:50] r00t_ninja - no [21:50] I see the kubuntu loading screen [21:50] then it fades out, and I have nothing [21:50] what happens when u press ctrl + alt + 1 [21:50] what happens when u press ctrl + alt + f2 [21:51] I tried ctrl alt f1, nothing happened [21:51] this is DURING boot right? [21:51] im guessing its a xorg problem [21:51] no idea man [21:51] changing resolution shouldnt do this to a system [21:51] ever [21:51] i dont think that is it though [21:52] thats all that changed though man [21:52] that resolution change only applies to that user [21:52] I was on the system, changed resolution in RR tray, rebooted, thats it. period. done. That was all that happened :( [21:52] do you have auto login? [21:52] Roasted: wait what's is the problemmmm does the splash disappear? and you have blank screen? or you have the splash screen continuously [21:53] r00t_ninja: Roasted what is RR tray?

[22:21] nothing happened when I do CTRL ALT F1 and F2 [22:22] Roasted, looks like you need to reboot [22:22] to reboot? [22:22] or reinstall? [22:22] How do I make my bug reports more useful? [22:22] apparle - I did but I got to initramfs and that was it. no idea what else I had to do [22:23] howcome you ended in intrafms that before even kubuntu loading [22:23] he booted recovery mode [22:23] initramfs is something not to be trying unless you really know what you're doing [22:24] that was when I hit recovery mode [22:24] CTRL ALT F1 and F2 do nothing when Im booting [22:24] Im heading out now, Ill try this again later. If it doesnt work Im gonna take this opportunity to try fedora :P [22:24] anyway I appreciate the help guys [22:24] BluesKaj: yes but that comes up only when there is something with loading kernel ? iesn't it [22:26] apparle, dunno enough about it [22:26] Roasted: wait goto recovery mode [22:26] Roasted: when you are in it [22:27] just type quit [22:27] 'quit' [22:27] On my computer intrafms sometimes just pops up when it can't load from hdd [22:28] I just quit and then loading continues === trmanco_ is now known as trmanco [22:30] ыыы [22:34] I'm booting and the desktop isn't loading.. how do I get it to load..

[22:41] jwg: also check if you run dialog appears when you press Alt+F2 [22:42] apparle: could be the ATI card and drivers.. it's a Radeon 9600.. no hardware drivers appeared so it's stock default for what kubuntu wants to use..
