| newbie123abc | where are KDE 4.4 RC1? | 00:09 |
| newbie123abc | http://news.softpedia.com/news/Available-Now-KDE-Software-Compilation-4-4-RC1-131604.shtml | 00:10 |
| newbie123abc | say that packages are avaliable | 00:10 |
| newbie123abc | on ppa | 00:10 |
| newbie123abc | but don't appear, here | 00:10 |
| fire`lalala | newbie123abc: I don't think that info is correct | 00:11 |
| fire`lalala | kubuntu.org has no news, yet | 00:11 |
| fire`lalala | therefore I think it's not built/not uploaded or something like that | 00:12 |
| newbie123abc | on Fedora out, OpenSuse out, but us... :P | 00:12 |
| mochilero | Hi people. Can someone remind me where I go to change the number of recent items on the standard K menu, please? | 00:14 |
| mochilero | Anyone? | 00:19 |
| Dragnslcr | Right-click the icon and go to settings | 00:19 |
| mochilero | Dragnslcr: Thanks. Pretty obvious now I know where it is. For some reason I thought it was in System Settings... | 00:20 |
| Zhenya | hi guys, i have some quick questions. I've played around with kubuntu on live drive and ready to use it on my main machine, i will however like to keep xp for excel and some dj software. When i got install kubuntu i get 2 options 1 is to overwrite the whole drive (no way!) and the other is manually do the partitions can someone walk me through that so i dont destroy something but get two working oses on my machine!! | 00:27 |
| titan_ark | Zhenya, why dont you try the wubi installer? It is much safer. | 00:32 |
| Zhenya | titan_ark: i read that with the wubi it is not as stable, is that true? (sorry total n00b here) | 00:33 |
| titan_ark | I have been trying to install Kubuntu on my nitebook and something or the other doesn't seem to work. Finally gave up and using Ubuntu. | 00:33 |
| titan_ark | Well, I am a n00b myself. :P | 00:33 |
| titan_ark | Zhenya, I did do a dual boot a few years back. Really dont remember the steps. Its quite simple, you just need to be careful in one place where you are selecting the partitions. | 00:34 |
| titan_ark | Better still why dont you use a 3rd party tool in windows, create the swap and ext partition for Kubuntu and then start installing./ | 00:35 |
| Nete | Is there any way in firefox to have pics download to pictures and everything else to downloads? | 00:35 |
| cyberbrain | <cyberbrain> is there some GUI tool for QoS???? | 00:35 |
| titan_ark | Zhenya, in case you need help just ping, I could be able to take you through most of the way. | 00:37 |
| Zhenya | titan_ark: THANK YOU! | 00:37 |
| titan_ark | np :) | 00:38 |
| Zhenya | just moving some media files over to my extarnal drive to allow for more partition space:D | 00:38 |
| Zhenya | have you ever used linux mint? | 00:38 |
| titan_ark | but before you do anything, please back up all data :) | 00:38 |
| titan_ark | ah, nope. quite a n00b myself. | 00:38 |
| Zhenya | gotcha | 00:38 |
| Zhenya | i've been reading that mint is ever MORE for n00bers | 00:38 |
| Zhenya | but i think i'll try kubuntu | 00:38 |
| titan_ark | Used xubuntu for a few months on my old box and after I moved out my notebook has been totally incompatible | 00:39 |
| Zhenya | hmmm | 00:39 |
| titan_ark | well ubuntu and its variants are not very troublesome either :) | 00:39 |
| Zhenya | btw do you know if you can install Ubuntu Software center on Kubuntu? | 00:39 |
| titan_ark | IMO Ubuntu is best supported, its easier to find a solution on it | 00:40 |
| faileas | Zhenya: no reason you shouldn't be able to | 00:40 |
| titan_ark | sorry, no idea | 00:40 |
| Zhenya | ok cool :D | 00:40 |
| Zhenya | how come this channel is so much more dead than the ubuntu channel? | 00:40 |
| faileas | that i have no idea about | 00:40 |
| titan_ark | lol | 00:41 |
| Torch | Zhenya: there are a no problems with KDE ;-)) | 00:42 |
| Zhenya | haha | 00:42 |
| faileas | lol | 00:43 |
| Zhenya | the ubuntu guys think that ubuntu is better | 00:43 |
| Zhenya | i just want the most stable modern looking thing that a n00b can use | 00:43 |
| titan_ark | :D | 00:43 |
| faileas | well personally, i suggest trying both if you can | 00:43 |
| titan_ark | No offence, but I would reccomend Ubuntu, especially if you are going to use it on a notebook. | 00:43 |
| faileas | *chuckles* | 00:43 |
| Torch | titan_ark: why's that? | 00:44 |
| titan_ark | Torch, I have been struggling with getting it going on mine to no avail. | 00:44 |
| faileas | i'm not fond of the two panel approach ubuntu uses. I also prefer konversation over xchat, and kopete over pidgin (haven't tried telepathy yet). Gnome didn't have a reasonable drop down terminal app till recently | 00:44 |
| titan_ark | Finally gave up and got Ubuntu on ow, | 00:44 |
| titan_ark | *now | 00:44 |
| fire`lala | I use kde on my notebook, and it work's fine | 00:44 |
| Torch | .. same here, obviously. | 00:45 |
| fire`lala | most of my problems were not kde specific | 00:45 |
| titan_ark | I too like the KDE flavor and spent all day yesterday. | 00:45 |
| titan_ark | I dunno if they were kde specific or not but | 00:45 |
| titan_ark | :P | 00:45 |
| * faileas has his box working well enough not to need help on this one ;p | 00:45 | |
| titan_ark | :D | 00:46 |
| faileas | i actually am on cause i needed some help with my mongrel ubuntu system, and asked on the general channel (i call it emu. its an openbox based build ;p) | 00:46 |
| titan_ark | konversation looked and felt better on kubuntu than on Ubuntu | 00:46 |
| titan_ark | :( | 00:47 |
| faileas | cause its native | 00:47 |
| * faileas uses lostirc on non kde boxen. its lighter than xchat ;p | 00:48 | |
| BluesKaj | I fail to see the appeal of xchat on any OS | 00:49 |
| faileas | BluesKaj: eh, its what almost every linux system comes with. its also half decent on some other OSes. | 00:49 |
| titan_ark | I am actually hoping to find someone help me get the kde on this Ubuntu install. | 00:49 |
| titan_ark | Is it possible? | 00:49 |
| OxDeadC0de | what the heck, in 9.10 the clock is skipping over all the 3's in the seconds, anyone else experience this? | 00:49 |
| faileas | titan_ark: sure. sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop , then use your desktop manager to choose which to boot into. However, i think *all* your apps, kde, or gnome will be in both, so your menus might be a little messy/full | 00:50 |
| faileas | titan_ark: if you just want basic kde, and don't mind adding what you need as you go along, swap kubuntu-desktop with kde-core - then install kde specific stuff as needed | 00:51 |
| titan_ark | faileas, hmmm thx :) and I will be able to roll back (just in case) right? | 00:51 |
| faileas | titan_ark: well, you can uninstall what was installed. | 00:51 |
| faileas | titan_ark: not sure if there's an automagical way to remove a metapackage tho | 00:52 |
| OxDeadC0de | srsly that's a little un nerving, my clcok skips all 3's in the seconds, makes me wonder if I'm time traveling or something skipping all the 3's..... | 00:52 |
| titan_ark | I am tired of the numerous reinstallaions of Win and (K)ubuntu over the last few days | 00:52 |
| OxDeadC0de | clock* | 00:52 |
| Torch | titan_ark: kde and gnome desktops are just packages within ubuntu. you can always switch between the two. | 00:52 |
| faileas | OxDeadC0de: are you working in a temporal anomaly? or is it a VM? | 00:52 |
| OxDeadC0de | neither afaik | 00:52 |
| titan_ark | Torch, hmmm | 00:52 |
| faileas | hmm | 00:52 |
| faileas | thats odd then | 00:52 |
| faileas | is it an old box? | 00:52 |
| OxDeadC0de | not really, it's running at 1.8ghz dual core | 00:53 |
| OxDeadC0de | not under a heavy load right now | 00:53 |
| faileas | naw, i was thinking maybe a cmos battery issue | 00:53 |
| OxDeadC0de | oh, well, it's about 2 yrs old laptop | 00:53 |
| fire`lala | why should that affect the clock? | 00:53 |
| Torch | faileas: that's only used as long as the system is off | 00:54 |
| faileas | Torch: hmm, point. | 00:54 |
| titan_ark | I wanted to verify if there are any issues with the kernel 2.6.31-17? | 00:54 |
| Torch | titan_ark: like? | 00:54 |
| Torch | (there are always issues with any kernel version so the question is bit broad...) | 00:55 |
| titan_ark | Cos, on a perfectly working system, on updating the kernel, I end up with a filesystem error and then cannot boot in. | 00:55 |
| titan_ark | Pardon such queries, I am quite a n00b | 00:55 |
| Torch | titan_ark: but you can boot with the older kernel again? | 00:56 |
| titan_ark | Yes. | 00:56 |
| Torch | titan_ark: ouch. | 00:56 |
| titan_ark | This is something I just noticed on my friend's notebook. He was working fine on 31-16 and when he updated to 17, it went kaboom. | 00:56 |
| titan_ark | Now he can boot into 16 but not 17. | 00:57 |
| Torch | titan_ark: but the only affected machine you saw is this notebook? | 00:57 |
| ilumi | anyone know how to force a resolution that is not available in the control panel? | 00:57 |
| titan_ark | We both have an almost same config. I was facing this issue too after a fresh install and doing all updates. when my friend updated to 17 and he got teh same error i thought of skipping it and now I am able to log in perfectly fine. | 00:58 |
| Torch | titan_ark: so i get this right, you did the upgrade to 17 and it works? | 00:59 |
| Roasted | what command can I run to generate an MD5 of a DVD? I want to check the MD5 sums before/after of this burn. | 00:59 |
| titan_ark | No, sorry for the confusion. When I upgrade to 17 even I cant boot in. | 00:59 |
| titan_ark | I am on 14 now, | 00:59 |
| titan_ark | Cos that is what was installed from the iso I DLed. | 00:59 |
| Torch | titan_ark: sounds bad. | 01:00 |
| Torch | titan_ark: fwiw i am on 17 and it works fine (the booting part... suspend is broken, but that's another story.) | 01:01 |
| titan_ark | hmmm | 01:01 |
| titan_ark | We seem to be getting a filesystem error on booting. | 01:01 |
| titan_ark | Hey, I also wanted to point out a wubi bug I came across yesterday. | 01:01 |
| Torch | Roasted: md5sum /dev/dvd | 01:02 |
| titan_ark | darkdelusions helped me find a workaround. | 01:02 |
| Torch | Roasted: be aware it will take a very long time | 01:02 |
| Roasted | :( | 01:02 |
| Roasted | long as in hours? | 01:02 |
| Torch | Roasted: depends. probalby not. but 20 minutes wouldn't be surprising. | 01:02 |
| titan_ark | In fact it is a reported bug, but still the new wubi is not on the Kubuntu site. | 01:02 |
| Roasted | ah, that aint so bad | 01:02 |
| Roasted | I was just hoping you werent referring to "let it run overnight" thing | 01:02 |
| Torch | Roasted: well, if your machine is 10 years old... ;-) | 01:03 |
| Roasted | 1 year :P | 01:03 |
| titan_ark | Torch, the wubi for kubuntu seems to be buggy :P | 01:05 |
| Torch | titan_ark: i have no idea about wubi, sorry. it's some ms windows try-out-thing, right? | 01:05 |
| titan_ark | yeah :D | 01:05 |
| titan_ark | Was trying it yesterday and it does not do its job right | 01:06 |
| titan_ark | darkdelusions helped me find a solution, it is a reported bug but still the corrected thingy is not on the site! | 01:07 |
| titan_ark | It would spare a lot of n00bs a lot of trouble. | 01:07 |
| Xaositect_ | somewhy i think wubi have beed developed to work under wine xD | 01:07 |
| titan_ark | Isnt there a lubi for linux ? :D | 01:08 |
| titan_ark | My mic and webcam dont seem to be working :( | 01:09 |
| Xaositect_ | ask them kindly xD | 01:09 |
| fire`lala | titan_ark: what mic do you use? | 01:10 |
| fire`lala | some onboard device? | 01:10 |
| fire`lala | or something "weird" like a bluetooth-thingie | 01:10 |
| titan_ark | I have an integrated array, (dunno which one) and also the 3.5 mm plug in | 01:10 |
| titan_ark | both dont work | 01:11 |
| fire`lala | perhaps you have to turn up the volume with alsamixer? | 01:11 |
| titan_ark | hmm gotta chk that | 01:11 |
| Xaositect_ | so have anyone encounter gstreamer errors in songbird? >.< | 01:13 |
| * Xaositect_ plugs amp into flash mp3 T_T | 01:14 | |
| OxDeadC0de | ilumi: you can add your own mode lines to xorg.conf but it always confused me what all the numbers were | 01:14 |
| ilumi | OxDeadC0de, i figured it out , thanks | 01:14 |
| titan_ark | fire`lala, no luck | 01:18 |

| contrast | What up, everyone... | 01:26 |
| contrast | Anyone using the 4.4 pre-release? I'm curious as to whether I should be patient and wait for the official release, or go ahead and take the plunge. | 01:27 |

| mefisto__ | trying to use kdenlive, I can't play the project without kdenlive grinding to a halt and either freezing or crashing within a few seconds. also, audio is choppy. anyone have a clue? | 01:53 |
| === andy is now known as Guest26049 | ||
| contrast | mefisto__: What are your specs, and how "heavy" is the video you're trying to play (resolution, effects and transitions you've added, etc.)? | 02:11 |
| mefisto__ | contrast: thanks, I solved it. it's a pulseaudio-related thing. installing libsdl1.2debian-pulseaudio (which removes and replaces libsdl1.2debian-alsa) makes it work smoothly | 02:13 |
| === kishore_ is now known as kishore | ||
| contrast | mefisto__: good to know. btw, are you using the version from the Ubuntu repos? from my experience, 0.7.6 in the PPA is much more stable. | 02:28 |
| mefisto__ | yes, from repos, but I think I'll try the PPA now. do you have a link handy? | 02:28 |
| contrast | https://launchpad.net/~sunab/+archive/ppa | 02:29 |
| contrast | mefisto__: I'm guessing you have PulseAudio selected as the preferred output device in System Settings -> Multimedia? | 02:30 |
| contrast | (Just wondering, in case I ever run into the issue you were having.) | 02:30 |
| mefisto__ | contrast: well I couldn't get any sound at all unless I left it at "automatic" | 02:30 |
| contrast | ~_^ | 02:30 |
| mefisto__ | I might try pulseaudio now and see what happens | 02:31 |
| contrast | pulseaudio's not installed by default in Kubuntu, although... | 02:31 |
| contrast | nope, nor is it a dependency of the package you just mentioned | 02:31 |
| contrast | if you wanna see how pulse fares on your system, just "sudo apt-get install pulseaudio" first. | 02:32 |
| mefisto__ | ok, now all audio settings work | 02:32 |
| mefisto__ | I have pulse installed. I believe it's installed by default in karmic | 02:33 |
| contrast | in ubuntu, maybe, but not in kubuntu. | 02:34 |
| contrast | (this is coming from a guy that's done ~a dozen kubuntu 9.10 installs between setting up friends and breaking his own systems. :P ) | 02:35 |
| contrast | anyway, i'm off. g'nite. | 02:38 |
| mefisto__ | contrast: well my experience tells me otherwise | 02:38 |
| _2 | hmmm is there a package for jaunty of shrip ? | 02:43 |
| mefisto__ | what's shrip? | 02:45 |
| _2 | sh rip dvd riping cli frontend | 02:46 |
| _2 | links http://trac.handbrake.fr/browser/trunk/doc/BUILD-Linux | 02:46 |

| faileas | yes, but thats something for the offtopic channel ;p | 03:44 |
| AABBCC | first time using linux ;) | 03:44 |
| Nafri | is there anything wrong with kaffeine? | 03:44 |
| Fanfare | JCDG: spoiler | 03:44 |
| DAskreeCH | Nafri: Which version of Kaffiene ? | 03:44 |
| DAskreeCH | AABBCC: Welcome to Kubuntu | 03:44 |
| DAskreeCH | AABBCC: Welcome to Linux | 03:44 |
| Fanfare | Nafri: kaffeine -> dragonplayer (in KDE4 SC) | 03:45 |
| AABBCC | thank you | 03:45 |
| AABBCC | I am just doing some updates... any newbie advice? | 03:45 |
| Nafri | kaffeine -1.0 pre2 | 03:45 |
| DAskreeCH | AABBCC: Lots What would you like to know from the newbies? :) | 03:46 |
| DAskreeCH | Nafri: Well that is a prerelease of a new software :) | 03:46 |
| Nafri | dragon can't fwd/rewind flv too... none of the xine front-end seems to work :( | 03:46 |
| Nafri | but smplayer works perfectly | 03:46 |
| AABBCC | well i need some apps how do i find them? | 03:46 |
| Nafri | sudo apt-get install <YOUR_APP> | 03:47 |
| Fanfare | AABBCC: kpackagekit | 03:47 |
| Fanfare | Nafri: noobs tend to not know the app/pkg names :-) | 03:48 |
| AABBCC | thanks | 03:49 |
| AABBCC | im not shure all the drivers were installed how can i check? | 03:50 |
| _2 | heh. ubuntu suggests apt and debian forbids apt and insists on aptitude heh. personally i prefer apt but i'm using debian | 03:52 |
| Fanfare | AABBCC: what device do u think is not working? | 03:52 |
| maco | _2: we dont recomment a specific one | 03:52 |
| maco | _2: which version you see in documentation or on IRC is based on the preferences of whomever was at the keyboard | 03:52 |
| AABBCC | no sound for one thing | 03:53 |
| _2 | Fanfare apt-cache [search,show] bash AABBCC you could look at the install logs less /var/log/dpkg.log maco, acc | 03:54 |
| Fanfare | AABBCC: do u have a mixericon in the taskpanel? | 03:54 |
| AABBCC | yes i do | 03:54 |
| Fanfare | _2: sure there are many ways to search for app names and install them... | 03:55 |
| AABBCC | it says nvidia for some reason | 03:55 |
| Fanfare | AABBCC: open the mixer and check all levels are up! also check the hidden channels! | 03:56 |
| Fanfare | AABBCC: kubuntu suggests to install the proprietary/binary driver... it comes with the open source driver | 03:56 |
| AABBCC | all the levels are up.. i checked | 03:58 |
| AABBCC | where do i find the proprietary driver | 03:58 |
| DAskreeCH_ | AABBCC: You have the GUI way and the CLI way | 03:59 |
| DAskreeCH_ | Gui = Graphical User interface and CLI = Command Line interface | 03:59 |
| AABBCC | GUI is fine | 03:59 |
| DAskreeCH_ | AABBCC: basically the Point and click way and the terminal way | 03:59 |
| Fanfare | u can autoinstall the binary driver witth jockey-kde | 03:59 |

| Fanfare | AABBCC: sadly this is a good thing... :-) | 04:03 |
| AABBCC | y? | 04:04 |
| _2 | good in what sense tho. | 04:05 |
| Fanfare | Sad because there are too many widespread proprietary formats out there. | 04:05 |
| Fanfare | good to have binary drivers and formatsupport around. | 04:06 |
| Fanfare | somewhere... | 04:06 |

| DAskreeCH_ | Fanfare: There is good there is good and there is good | 04:08 |
| _2 | <Fanfare> good to have binary drivers and formatsupport around. <<< sad that they can't be opensource and included though. | 04:08 |
| Fanfare | DAskreeCH_: May the good win over the evil | 04:08 |
| DAskreeCH_ | Fanfare: Yes once you know who is defining what is good and what is evil | 04:09 |

| Fanfare | jacob_: try window first if thats not doing ok, use app | 04:13 |
| Fanfare | Izinucs: is that only some DVDs not playing or all? | 04:14 |
| Izinucs | Fanfare: I've tried Riddick which plays in 8.10 ubuntu.. I've also tried Minority Report.. neither work.. | 04:15 |
| JCDG | Hello Fanfare | 04:15 |
| jacob_ | .. | 04:15 |
| jacob_ | this is confusing | 04:15 |
| jacob_ | it still opens in the same place | 04:15 |
| JCDG | I want to set up my mouse so I can use the horizontal scroll bar, but in the mouse options there's not any option to set it up... | 04:16 |
| titan_ark | hey if i want to install the kde core do i need to add something to the software sources also? | 04:16 |
| Fanfare | Izinucs: try lsdvd /dev/<DVD> | 04:16 |
| titan_ark | i get a could not find kde-core error | 04:16 |
| Fanfare | titan_ark: what is kde core? | 04:17 |
| Fanfare | titan_ark: try kubuntu-desktop | 04:17 |
| titan_ark | Fanfare I am presently on Ubuntu | 04:17 |
| titan_ark | well kubuntu-desktop will get a lot of softwares on and I will have a tough time disabling what all i do not need | 04:18 |
| titan_ark | http://www.debianadmin.com/install-kde-desktop-in-ubuntu.html | 04:18 |
| titan_ark | Someone else here also suggested kde-core first | 04:19 |
| Fanfare | titan_ark: hm, kdebase is some sort of a core :-) | 04:19 |
| titan_ark | hmmm' | 04:20 |
| JCDG | I want to set up my mouse so I can use the horizontal scroll bar, but in the mouse options there's not any option to set it up...Where Can I find this option? | 04:20 |
| jwill | JCDG: Is it a mouse, or a touchpad? | 04:21 |
| Fanfare | JCDG: <alt>+scroll scrolls horicontal! | 04:21 |
| JCDG | touchpad sorry... | 04:22 |
| jwill | JCDG: I was assuming you meant your mouse/touchpad supported physically scrolling sideways. | 04:22 |
| Izinucs | Fanfare: results.. "Using libdvdcss vs. 1.2.10 for dvd access.. Could not open /dev/sr0 w/libdvdcss | 04:22 |
| Izinucs | Fanfare: I'm using the 64 bit vs. of kubuntu and the 64 bit version of libdvdcss from medibuntu | 04:22 |
| jwill | JCDG: I know it's an option in the synaptics touchpad driver. So we need to make sure you have that kind of touchpad, and how to change that setting. | 04:22 |
| JCDG | Fanfare, jwill , the vertical scrolling is working fine...but not the horizontal... | 04:23 |
| Fanfare | Izinucs: 64bit should not be a prob... | 04:23 |
| JCDG | jwill, uhmmm where can I find the synaptics touchpad setup? if there's one... | 04:23 |
| jwill | JCDG: I know this is a setting in Gnome, so KDE probably has it. | 04:23 |
| Izinucs | I know.. but | 04:24 |
| jwill | JCDG: so you've looked in here for an option: http://imagebin.ca/view/YSUuQjJ.html ? | 04:24 |
| Fanfare | Izinucs: i cant help then... | 04:25 |
| JCDG | jwill, yeahh and the only avaiable option is to reverse scroll direction,and it only affects the vertical scroll | 04:25 |
| Izinucs | Fanfare: thanks for the shot at it. :( | 04:26 |
| Fanfare | JCDG: if u have vertical scroll, use <alt>+scroll to horicontal scroll | 04:27 |
| jwill | JCDG: sudo aptitude install gsynaptics | 04:27 |
| jwill | JCDG: It's a config tool for synaptics touchpads. I'm assuming you have a synaptics one, since they're very common and the other type isn't supported well. | 04:28 |
| JCDG | Fanfare, jwill let me try both of them | 04:28 |
| JCDG | yeah, it is a synaptics | 04:29 |
| jwill | Good, that should work, then. | 04:29 |
| jwill | JCDG: Um, if you're planning to use sleep, you should have a look at the script someone posted here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticsTouchpad | 04:30 |
| === tony_ is now known as deeproot | ||
| jwill | JCDG: Apparently gsynaptics needs help resuming after sleep | 04:30 |
| JCDG | Incredible but I can't find a web page to test it... | 04:32 |
| Fanfare | JCDG: <ctrl>+scroll to zoom in konq | 04:33 |
| JCDG | Fanfare, it worked, but shouldn't it be able to work as the vertical scroll??? without the need to press alt? | 04:35 |
| Fanfare | JCDG: i dont know synaptics too much, i do scroll with mouse <cttrl> = zoom, <alt> = horicontal | 04:36 |
| JCDG | Fanfare, jwill, and what about modifying the xorg?? | 04:37 |
| jwill | JCDG: Didn't gsynaptics work? | 04:38 |
| jwill | Fanfare: He wants to be able to move his fingers sideways on the touchpad, and scroll sideways. | 04:38 |
| JCDG | I haven't tried...sorry...I forgot... | 04:38 |
| jwill | JCDG: It's to do with the touchpad driver, not xorg, so I don't think you can change it in xorg.conf. | 04:39 |
| Izinucs | might be a .vdi file | 04:41 |
| JCDG | jwill, Fanfare I have to reboot, be back in a secs... | 04:44 |
| jwill | k | 04:44 |
| JCDG | just curious but why in Linux, almost every program has a numeriation of 0.9.XXX, why don't the use 1.XXX, 2.XXX?? | 04:49 |
| KDesk | hi, I saw that kde 4.4 rc was released a few days ago, but in the kde info page the aren't packages for kubuntu, anyone know where can I find packages for kde 4.4rc? | 04:50 |
| Fanfare | KDesk: no packs jet | 04:50 |
| Fanfare | y | 04:50 |
| KDesk | JCDG: That is know commercial | 04:50 |
| KDesk | JCDG: That is <only> commercial | 04:50 |
| JCDG | How's that? | 04:51 |
| Dragnslcr | JCDG- because a lot of programmers don't like to label something 1.0 until they feel that it's completed | 04:52 |
| KDesk | Fanfare: ah, do you know when will they be packeged? | 04:52 |
| Fanfare | because floss devs are more reliable :-) | 04:52 |
| Fanfare | KDesk: dont know , guess these days... | 04:52 |
| Fanfare | got to go, bb | 04:52 |
| Gamarok__ | hey guys | 04:52 |
| KDesk | Fanfare: ok, then i will wait :) thanks for the info | 04:52 |
| JCDG | jwill, uhmmm now the alt+scroll does not move the horizontal scroll and the horizontal scroll does not work yet... | 04:55 |
| jwill | JCDG: You might need to reload the module? | 04:55 |

| JCDG | uhmmm how do I do that? | 04:55 |
| Zhenya | fark | 04:55 |
| jwill | JCDG: modprobe -r <name of synaptics module> | 04:56 |
| Zhenya | ave kubuntu installed and running. When i try to install firefox from the buil in package i get "requested packages already installed" | 04:56 |
| jwill | JCDG: then modprobe <name...> | 04:56 |
| JCDG | jwill, how can I find the name of the module? | 04:56 |
| Zhenya | and then when i go to the terminal and do a sudo apt-install and pick a package | 04:56 |
| Zhenya | no go at all | 04:56 |
| jwill | JCDG: Might be synaptics? | 04:56 |
| Zhenya | any ideas? | 04:56 |
| JCDG | jwill, I don't know... | 04:57 |
| jwill | JCDG: Watch out though, you won't be able to use touchpad between those commands | 04:57 |
| jwill | JCDG: Just try "synaptics" | 04:57 |
| JCDG | jwill, "FATAL: Module synaptics not found." | 04:57 |
| jwill | JCDG: K, so that's not the name :P | 04:58 |
| Zhenya | guys any ideas? | 04:58 |
| JCDG | jwill, hehehe noup... | 04:58 |
| ilumi | anyone know how to enable boot log? | 04:59 |
| JCDG | jwill, I think i'm gonna send a bug to launchpad, but the problem is how I can gather information about that issue? | 04:59 |
| jwill | JCDG: Trying to google it... I think you can get a list of currently loaded modules, and grep it for synaptics | 04:59 |
| JCDG | jwill, How can I do that? | 05:00 |
| jwill | JCDG: Um, you don't know it's a bug. Wishlist would be to have horizontal scrolling option in mouse options like in gnome. | 05:00 |
| Izinucs | I've figured out how to add a drive to the sidebar in Dolphin but where is the icon stored for a drive? It's not in System icons or Other icons.. | 05:01 |
| jwill | JCDG: OK, type lsmod | grep "synap" | 05:01 |
| Izinucs | Never mind.. I found the drop down menu for other locations.. :( | 05:02 |
| jwill | JCDG: And paste the output here | 05:02 |
| JCDG | jwill nope, anything...look this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1217386 | 05:03 |
| jwill | JCDG: Then just type lsmod and look though the output for a likely module | 05:03 |
| Izinucs | I've added another partition to fstab and mounted it.. How do I check the owner and permission on the drive? | 05:03 |
| jwill | JCDG: Yeah, do that. | 05:04 |
| jwill | JCDG: And do aptitude remove gsynaptics | 05:04 |
| jwill | JCDG: Since you won't be using it. | 05:04 |
| JCDG | jwill remove or purge??? | 05:05 |
| jwill | JCDG: purge, actually | 05:05 |
| JCDG | jwill, look this https://wiki.kubuntu.org/LaptopTestingTeam/DellInspiron6400 | 05:06 |
| eneng | ..... | 05:06 |
| jwill | JCDG: Well that's easier. Good googling. | 05:07 |
| JCDG | jwill, I have the same laptop, uhmm but the fix tells me to modify "/etc/X11/xorg.conf" but when I do a sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf, the file is empty... | 05:07 |
| JCDG | jwill, did they change the location of the xorg??? | 05:08 |
| jwill | JCDG: Nope, mine is there. | 05:09 |
| jwill | JCDG: http://pastebin.com/m5a9f3d73 | 05:09 |
| jwill | JCDG: I know X got rid of a lot of the conf needed there, reasonably recently. | 05:10 |
| JCDG | jwill, look http://imagebin.ca/view/plgYJg3.html | 05:10 |
| faileas | the xorg.conf file is empty by default, unless you add anything to it iirc | 05:11 |
| === adam is now known as Guest37678 | ||
| JCDG | faileas, so should I paste some line and them comment it to get it working???... | 05:12 |
| JCDG | faileas, comment it is not the same as it were not there? | 05:12 |
| jwill | JCDG: you could try setting it to one? | 05:12 |
| jwill | JCDG: A commented line won't do anything. | 05:13 |
| JCDG | here it says that :In order to get it working you must comment this line in /etc/X11/xorg.conf: but if there's not any line, how am I gonna comment it? | 05:14 |
| jwill | JCDG: It's out of date. | 05:14 |
| faileas | JCDG: er... there's a command to generate an xorg.conf file | 05:14 |
| faileas | but i can't remember what that is | 05:14 |

| jwill | Izinucs: kdesu | 05:17 |
| JCDG | jwill, I did that and this is what i got, Fatal server error: | 05:17 |
| JCDG | Server is already active for display 0 | 05:17 |

| daskreech | !vt | 05:17 |
| JCDG | ok...i'll do it... | 05:17 |
| Izinucs | jwill: not available but "is referred to by another package.. this may mean that the package is missing , has been obsoleted etc.... | 05:17 |
| jwill | JCDG: CTRL + ALT + F7 to get back, CTRL + ALT + 1 or 2 or 3 or 4 or 5 or 6 to get to a virt term | 05:18 |
| jwill | Izinucs: O_o | 05:18 |
| jwill | Izinucs: That is weird. | 05:18 |
| Izinucs | I know.. another thing I discovered today was ksynaptics is also not available.. only gsynaptics | 05:19 |
| daskreech | jwill: Little late :) | 05:19 |
| jwill | daskreech: :D yeah | 05:19 |
| Triggz | hey every1 | 05:19 |
| jwill | daskreech: Better than when you tell a noob to do ctrl + alt + f1 to get to a virtual terminal without saying how to get back | 05:19 |
| jwill | Izinucs: You installed kubuntu-desktop from ubuntu? | 05:20 |
| Izinucs | jwill: yep.. 64bit version | 05:20 |
| iatd | how do you get back? | 05:20 |
| jwill | Izinucs: It sounds like you're missing a bunch of kubuntu-desktop packages. Try reinstalling. | 05:20 |
| Izinucs | k | 05:20 |
| jwill | Izinucs: sudo aptitude reinstall kubuntu-desktop | 05:20 |
| JCDG | jwill, the same thing... | 05:21 |
| jwill | JCDG: Um. | 05:21 |
| jwill | JCDG: Is another user logged in? | 05:21 |
| jwill | JCDG: You need to run that before X starts | 05:21 |
| Izinucs | jwill: however I'm using apt-cache search to look for those packages and they are not in the repos.. of course I've sudo apt-get update upgrade dist-upgrade already | 05:21 |
| JCDG | It's incredible that something so simple can be so difficult to set up...no, I'm the only one on my machine.. | 05:21 |
| Triggz | i just switched to linux, how do i update my dragon player? the update notifier gave me a list of 7 updates, codex and whatever when i put my password in it doesnt get them | 05:22 |
| jwill | JCDG: type: ps -aux | grep "xorg" | 05:23 |
| jwill | Speaking of ps -aux, why does it say ba syntax? | 05:24 |
| jwill | bad* | 05:24 |
| Izinucs | jwill: searched again using apt-cache search kdesu and it returns that the package is called kdesudo. maybe I had a typo before | 05:24 |
| jwill | Izinucs: You should not install it directly. | 05:24 |
| * Kage is going to sleep... Night! | 05:24 | |
| jwill | Izinucs: It should be installed with kubuntu-desktop. | 05:25 |
| jwill | Izinucs: So reinstalling did nothing? | 05:25 |
| JCDG | jwill, jonas 2196 0.0 0.0 3052 824 pts/1 S+ 00:54 0:00 grep --color=auto xorg | 05:25 |
| Izinucs | jwill: didn't do that yet | 05:25 |
| Izinucs | jwill: trying returns "kubuntu-desktop is already the newest version".. as I remember in gnome it was a package that wasn't installed by default.. | 05:26 |
| jwill | JCDG: Try running telinit 3 | 05:27 |
| Izinucs | jwill: edit: kdesudo was installed but doesn't activate with kdesu only kdesudo.. weird.. my machine was a fresh install so maybe something is left behind with an upgrade. | 05:27 |
| jwill | JCDG: If that fails, just stop the X server | 05:27 |
| JCDG | jwill, nothing came up... | 05:27 |
| jwill | Izinucs: Ah, what version are you running? | 05:27 |
| jwill | Izinucs: It's probably just a version change | 05:28 |
| Izinucs | jwill 9.10 | 05:28 |
| jwill | JCDG: Re-run the ps command (press up) | 05:28 |
| jwill | Izinucs: Weird, that's the same as me, and it's called kdesu | 05:28 |
| JCDG | jwill, jonas 8761 0.0 0.0 3052 808 pts/1 R+ 00:58 0:00 grep --color=auto xorg | 05:28 |
| daskreech | jwill: They should be smlinked to each other | 05:28 |
| jwill | Izinucs: kdesudo also works. Perhaps kdesu is deprecated or something, and it's only on mine because I installed it earlier? | 05:29 |
| jwill | JCDG: Right, just kill it | 05:29 |
| jwill | daskreech: Yeah, weird, right? | 05:29 |
| JCDG | jwill, how do I kill it?? | 05:29 |
| jwill | JCDG: man slaughter! | 05:30 |
| jwill | JCDG: type "man kill" into the terminal | 05:30 |
| Izinucs | jwill: could be.. I also just found that the partition that I created with partitionmanager for Data is owned by root.. figures since you need to be root to do that.. | 05:30 |
| JCDG | crtl+alt+backspace??' | 05:30 |
| jwill | JCDG: Um, no. You are at a black screen with no GUI, right? | 05:30 |
| JCDG | hehehehe....jwil, that was somekind of joke, jejejeje... | 05:31 |
| Izinucs | jwill: now how do I get rid of the "lost+found" folder when viewing the drive? | 05:31 |
| jwill | JCDG: Oh, I see :D | 05:31 |
| jwill | Izinucs: Bad idea. That stores lost disk sectors, I think. It's a filesystem thing. | 05:31 |
| Triggz | can any1 see me? | 05:31 |
| JCDG | jwill, so it'll be "kill 8761"?? | 05:31 |
| jwill | Triggz: No | 05:32 |
| jwill | JCDG: Yep. | 05:32 |
| Triggz | :) | 05:32 |
| Triggz | wasnt sure | 05:32 |
| Izinucs | jwill: It doesn't show up on other drives.. namely /home .. so do they hide it ?? should I rename it with a "." at the beginning ? | 05:32 |
| JCDG | jwill, it says no such process :S | 05:32 |
| jwill | Izinucs: If you need root to do it, you shouldn't. | 05:33 |
| jwill | Izinucs: Rule of thumb, don't touch anything outside your home dir. | 05:33 |
| jwill | JCDG: ?_? | 05:33 |
| JCDG | jonas@JKingdom:~/Documentos$ sudo kill 3052; kill: No such process | 05:34 |
| === tcarter is now known as tcarter_ | ||
| Izinucs | jwill: It's a 300gig partition for pics and music.. since I now "own" it, it allows me to rename the directory with a . in the front. | 05:34 |
| jwill | JCDG: 3052? | 05:34 |
| Triggz | how do i find out what version kde i have? | 05:34 |
| JCDG | jwill, with both 3052 and 8761... | 05:35 |
| jwill | JCDG: 8761... | 05:35 |
| JCDG | jonas@JKingdom:~/Documentos$ sudo kill 8761; kill: No such process | 05:35 |

| JCDG | jwill, ok I'll wait a few secs, I'm upgradid the kernel... | 05:36 |
| JCDG | Is there an incon In KDE like the one that kills the crashed windows in gnome= | 05:37 |
| Izinucs | How do I add a "Trash" Icon to the Desktop folder? or better yet what is the location of trash? | 05:37 |
| jwill | JCDG: That button is the same as the command "xkill" | 05:37 |
| JCDG | Izinucs, uhmmm, In gnome I used ubuntu tweak hehehe | 05:38 |
| jwill | JCDG: Just making sure, you were in a full-screen black terminal with no mouse when doing those commands, right? | 05:38 |
| JCDG | nop, I was on the beautiful KDE desktop... | 05:38 |
| jwill | Izinucs: trash: | 05:38 |
| Izinucs | JCDG: yea.. it's a little different getting use to kde after 5 years of gnome :).. but I like the new kde | 05:38 |
| jwill | JCDG: Ummm | 05:38 |
| jwill | JCDG: THERE'S OUR PROBLEM | 05:38 |
| jwill | JCDG: You remember the part where I said to log out and go to a virtual terminal? | 05:39 |
| jwill | JCDG: You have to be logged out, otherwise X is running. | 05:39 |
| jmcantrell | is there a way to add actions to the actions menu in dolphin? | 05:39 |
| jwill | jmcantrell: Yes. | 05:39 |
| JCDG | jwill, yeah, but...uhmmm how do I chat and write the commands on the same machine at the same time? | 05:39 |
| jmcantrell | jwill: can you point me in the right direction? | 05:40 |
| jwill | JCDG: You could use irssi, but that would be complicated. I'll just tell you what to do, then you can come back once you've done it. | 05:40 |
| jwill | jmcantrell: I know you can, but I forget how. | 05:40 |
| Izinucs | jwill: in the process of doing that I just managed to remove the "Desktop" .. how do I replace it | 05:41 |
| jwill | jmcantrell: It might involve bash scripts. | 05:41 |
| daskreech | Izinucs: lost+foound just means the drive has been checked for errors. One of those is made on the first check to put any errant files inside | 05:41 |
| jmcantrell | jwill: that's totally fine, i just need to know how to do it | 05:41 |
| JCDG | jwill, as soon as I can I'll do it...:D... | 05:41 |
| Izinucs | daskreech: thanks! | 05:41 |
| jmcantrell | anyone know how i can add actions to the menu in dolphin? | 05:41 |
| jwill | Izinucs: Right click on dekstop, select unlock. Right click, select add widgets. Find folder view, drag it onto desktop. | 05:41 |
| Bonster | is there a way to make Bash Alias work in Krunner? | 05:42 |
| daskreech | JCDG: alt+ctrl+Esc gets you the kill program icon | 05:42 |
| JCDG | jwill, I'm gonna reboot the pc, 'cause the kernel upgrade... | 05:42 |
| JCDG | thanks daskreech | 05:42 |
| Izinucs | jwill: that did it. | 05:43 |
| daskreech | Izinucs: trash is just a .Desktop with the url trash:/ | 05:43 |
| jwill | Izinucs: You might want to relock it, too. So you can't accidentally delete stuff/move it. | 05:43 |
| daskreech | jmcantrell: Check the Userbase page for Dolphin I think | 05:44 |
| daskreech | Bonster: Write a runner for it? | 05:44 |
| jmcantrell | daskreech: userbase? i just started using kde today. | 05:44 |
| jwill | jmcantrell: Here's a good-looking tutorial for service menus: http://tuxarena.blogspot.com/2009/03/how-to-create-open-as-root-service-menu.html | 05:45 |
| Bonster | daskreech, what u mean by that | 05:45 |
| daskreech | jmcantrell: http://userbase.kde.org Hold on let me check if i it's there | 05:45 |
| Izinucs | jwill: now I have to customize the folder I just replaced.. previously I had added a url location so the only thing showing was a folder representing my /home directory and not the folders *in* /home.. now I'm having problems reproducing that.. | 05:45 |
| jmcantrell | jwill: cool. thanks | 05:46 |
| daskreech | Bonster: Krunner works with Runners who check if what you typed corresponds with something. There isn't one for a Bash Alias as far as I know so just get one and install it | 05:46 |
| Izinucs | daskreech: shouldn't I be able to right mouse click the newly created trash and "empty" ? | 05:47 |
| jwill | Izinucs: You just want a link to your home? You don't need a full desktop view for that, just drag your home dir onto the desktop (while it's unlocked) | 05:47 |
| daskreech | jmcantrell: http://kubuntuforums.net/forums/index.php?topic=3088743.0 | 05:47 |
| Izinucs | jwill: got it.. right mouse click the folder and add url /home/<user> | 05:47 |
| jwill | Izinucs: If you use the plasmoid on the desktop or toolbar, you can. | 05:47 |
| jmcantrell | daskreech: thanks | 05:47 |
| daskreech | Izinucs: mebbe I dunno I've never tried it :) | 05:47 |
| === jwill is now known as [jwill_is_afk] | ||
| Izinucs | daskreech: I had the url wrong for it.. didn't put the colon and / at the end.. when I did that the empty option appeared when right mouse clicked however the icon changed so I had to modify that. | 05:50 |
| jmcantrell | is there any way to keep wallet from asking me for my password every time i login? | 05:50 |
| daskreech | Izinucs: Ah there is a trash widget :) | 05:51 |
| [jwill_is_afk] | jmcantrell: Without massively compromising security, no. | 05:51 |
| === [jwill_is_afk] is now known as jwill | ||
| daskreech | jmcantrell: Tell it always allow ? | 05:52 |
| daskreech | jmcantrell: Oh wait that's your master password | 05:52 |
| jmcantrell | there's no way to tie it to the login password? | 05:52 |
| Izinucs | daskreech: but I don't think you can place it *in* the Deaktop folder.. it seems to live as a widgit on the desktop | 05:52 |
| jmcantrell | like gnome? | 05:52 |
| jwill | jmcantrell: You should have different passwords. | 05:52 |
| jwill | jmcantrell: But maybe, I don't know. | 05:53 |
| * Izinucs is really learning to LOVE this new kde.. polished, smooth, flexable .. but wonders what will happen when upgraded to the next LTS (shudders with that prospect) | 05:55 | |
| daskreech | Izinucs: Ah.. Not sure why you would want that :) but Yeah make a special link to trash:/ | 05:56 |
| daskreech | jmcantrell: I think you can but then why bother use kwallet? | 05:56 |
| Izinucs | daskreech: I guess I'd rather have it there then anywhere else :) ... or "because I can?" | 05:57 |
| daskreech | Izinucs: Because I can. Welcome to Linux Sub section KDE | 05:57 |
| Izinucs | :) | 05:57 |
| Izinucs | daskreech: ok.. another question.. is there an easy setup to sync a folder to Ubuntu One? perhaps even including contact from Kontact? | 05:58 |
| daskreech | Izinucs: Yes | 06:01 |
| daskreech | ish | 06:01 |
| daskreech | :) | 06:01 |
| Izinucs | daskreech: what.. I have to install couchdb, configure etc ?? | 06:02 |
| daskreech | Izinucs: google apachelogger ubuntu one | 06:03 |
| daskreech | He made a KDE system for it | 06:03 |
| Izinucs | daskreech: cool | 06:03 |
| Izinucs | Is copying a large amount of files with dolphin something that slows the system down? Is it better to do it via cli? | 06:05 |
| darkdelusions | jwill: thanks for the open with root trick :) | 06:06 |
| jwill | darkdelusions: Google is your friend :) | 06:07 |
| jwill | Izinucs: No. | 06:07 |
| JECHO | hey fellas | 06:07 |
| darkdelusions | jwill: I never acutally thought of it :) | 06:07 |
| darkdelusions | rofl | 06:07 |
| JECHO | just officially switched over to kde from gnome :) | 06:08 |
| jwill | JECHO: KDE SC is fun. | 06:08 |
| JECHO | jwill: oh yes | 06:09 |
| JECHO | bespin snv is making me wet my pants | 06:09 |
| JECHO | bespin svn* | 06:09 |
| jwill | I dislike that widget theme. | 06:09 |
| JECHO | bespin? | 06:10 |
| jwill | The scrollbars, mostly. | 06:11 |
| JECHO | ah, got it | 06:11 |
| jwill | JECHO: Have a problem? | 06:12 |
| JECHO | no problem at all :) got everything running smoothly | 06:13 |
| JECHO | oh actually, there is something | 06:13 |
| jwill | System Settings | 06:14 |
| jwill | Right click on desktop, unlock | 06:14 |
| JECHO | jwill: the default wireless network manager in kde 4.3 is not picking up any networks, but when i run iwlist scan in the terminal, i am seeing networks | 06:14 |
| JECHO | any idea how to get the network manager in kde to see them too? | 06:15 |
| jwill | JECHO: Now that is puzzeling. | 06:15 |
| JECHO | jwill: thats what i said lol, not really a big deal since its a desktop machine and im wired in jsut fine | 06:15 |
| jwill | I have no idea. If you came over from gnome, you could just use NetworkManager (the gnome one)... but still | 06:16 |
| JECHO | also, gnomes default net manager works just fine... only having issues with KDE | 06:16 |
| JECHO | yeah, i was going to try that as a last resort | 06:16 |
| jwill | JECHO: You don't have it running, do you? | 06:16 |
| JECHO | gnome? | 06:16 |
| jwill | JECHO: The gnome networkmanager | 06:17 |
| jwill | JECHO: Both at the same time might cause issues | 06:17 |
| JECHO | no, i dont have both running. jsut did a fresh install of kubuntu 9.10 | 06:17 |
| jwill | JECHO: Oooh, k. Assumed you just installed kubuntu-desktop from ubuntu. | 06:18 |
| jwill | JECHO: You haven't fixed strigi yet? That's something else for you to do :D | 06:18 |
| JECHO | thats what i did earlier, and i had the same problem im having now... thought a clean install might correct it but nope | 06:18 |
| JECHO | haha whats strigi? | 06:18 |
| jwill | JECHO: What did you do earlier? | 06:19 |
| jwill | JECHO: The file indexer, like, umm... the gnome file indexer | 06:19 |
| JECHO | installed the kubuntu desktop with ubuntu | 06:19 |
| jwill | JECHO: Kubuntu breaks it by having some missing packages. | 06:19 |
| JECHO | ah | 06:19 |
| jwill | JECHO: Ah, I've had issues with that. | 06:19 |
| jwill | JECHO: Don't know what to do about the wireless. You might try entering a network in by hand, from the command line info, and seeing if it works. | 06:20 |
| jwill | JECHO: Looking at bugs.kde.org, or the kubuntu site could uncover a workaround. | 06:21 |
| JECHO | ah, good call. ill have to check that out | 06:21 |
| JECHO | im going to try working on it on my own for a bit longer | 06:21 |
| JECHO | ill conquer it :) | 06:22 |
| jwill | konquer* | 06:26 |
| daskreech | Izinucs: Umm I would say that cli is always better but that's me :) | 06:26 |
| jwill | daskreech: I'm sure dolphin uses the same backend as cp. | 06:27 |
| daskreech | JECHO: use KDE 4.4 ! | 06:27 |
| jwill | daskreech: Sure, cli would be faster sans the overhead from dolphin. But not enough to bother switching if you primarily use graphical file management. | 06:28 |
| daskreech | jwill: but cp doesn't have to paint the screen and update. so it would use less RAM so it would be less resources | 06:28 |
| jwill | JECHO: Yeah, that could fix it. On the other hand, you'd run into more bugs, probably. | 06:28 |
| daskreech | jwill: You can press F4 in dolphin. | 06:28 |
| daskreech | :-) | 06:28 |
| jwill | daskreech: Overhead. | 06:28 |
| JECHO | yeah im on a pretty built gaming machine so im not worried about resources | 06:29 |
| jwill | daskreech: Dolphin is running in the background anyways. Insignificant, especially since copying files isn't that CPU intensive in the first place. | 06:29 |
| JECHO | and KDE 4.4 looks like its coming along quite well but i agree with jwill, too many additional issues | 06:29 |
| jwill | daskreech: And everyone has way too much RAM by this point | 06:29 |
| daskreech | jwill: I have about 600 | 06:29 |
| jwill | JECHO: Yeah, I'm waiting for feb 8. | 06:29 |
| jmcantrell | anyone know how to get google calendar working with akonadi? i've added the resource and configured it, but i'm not seeing anything in kontact | 06:29 |
| daskreech | jwill: I'll find bugs and report them so you can have a better feb 8 :) | 06:30 |
| jwill | jmcantrell: Now that's something it might be worth upgrading to 4.4 for... Akonadi is a bit flakey in 4.3, in my experience. | 06:30 |
| jwill | daskreech: Thank you :D | 06:30 |
| jmcantrell | jwill: how do i upgrade? | 06:30 |
| jwill | jmcantrell: Well, you probably shouldn't. | 06:31 |
| daskreech | jmcantrell: It's on the Kubuntu website | 06:31 |
| Izinucs | jmcantrell: yep.. can't tell you though.. I set it up the other night.. took me 30 minutes.. did contacts too! I didn't write it down.. got the instruction from google. | 06:31 |
| daskreech | Izinucs: the worst problem with Linux | 06:31 |
| jwill | Izinucs: Really, google has instructions for KDE?? | 06:31 |
| Izinucs | amazing isn't it jwill!? | 06:31 |
| jwill | Izinucs: Yeah O_O | 06:31 |
| daskreech | Not ubuntu in general since they are nice enough to break things regularly but still one of the worst things about Linux :) | 06:32 |
| jwill | Izinucs: I thought linux support for chrome was cool. | 06:32 |
| daskreech | Seeing as how they hosted the KDE 4.0 party I think Google has some knowledge of KDE :) | 06:32 |
| Izinucs | jwill: haven't tried that in linux yet.. windows sure.. at work | 06:32 |
| daskreech | ha ha | 06:32 |
| jwill | daskreech: I really miss the integration of konq, but chrome is still a very nice browser. And none of the picasa-like wine crap. Completely natice (to gnome). | 06:33 |
| jwill | native* | 06:33 |
| jmcantrell | jwill: are you talking about the ppa? | 06:33 |
| Izinucs | slowly getting some opensource in the work environment.. got the boss using FF and chrome and convinced him I could put a company site up after he got a 8k quote to do Joomla... | 06:33 |
| jwill | jmcantrell: What ppa? The google one? | 06:34 |
| daskreech | jwill: They still should have done it in Qt | 06:34 |
| jwill | daskreech: Yeah... | 06:34 |
| jwill | daskreech: Would be so cool. | 06:34 |
| daskreech | jwill: And easier on them | 06:38 |
| nirjhor | I'm having a problem | 06:38 |
| nirjhor | my resolution always gets back to 1024*768 when I turn my pc on | 06:38 |
| daskreech | nirjhor: Good thing that you are in the support channel :) | 06:38 |
| nirjhor | I'm using kubuntu 9.10 | 06:38 |
| jwill | daskreech: Right, crossplatform right out of the box. They said they wanted windows/mac versions to be completely native, though. | 06:38 |
| daskreech | jwill: Right. So... Qt ? | 06:39 |
| Izinucs | Ok.. I just installed Digikam but it's not showing on the menu's.. what now? | 06:39 |
| nirjhor | with the kernel 2. 6.33 rc2 | 06:39 |
| jwill | Whoa, we had someone with that exact problem in here 2 days ago, nirjhor. | 06:39 |
| daskreech | Izinucs: might just be that they didn't refresh the menu | 06:39 |
| nirjhor | so what to do now? | 06:39 |
| daskreech | nirjhor: Kernel isn't a problem X and Driver would be the problem | 06:39 |
| Izinucs | daskreech: can I do that from cli? or do I have to log out and in or "edit" the menu to see if it's sitting there like I had to in gnome? | 06:40 |
| nirjhor | I'm using intel dg41rq express onboard grapgics | 06:40 |
| === bigbrovar_ is now known as bigbrovar | ||
| Izinucs | daskreech: got it.. | 06:41 |
| jmcantrell | 4.4 is in beta right? | 06:42 |
| daskreech | jmcantrell: RC | 06:42 |
| jmcantrell | do you know what the specific version number is? | 06:43 |
| * daskreech puts a feather in bigbrovar's hair | 06:43 | |
| daskreech | jmcantrell: If you are in Koala then it's 4.3.85 | 06:43 |
| nirjhor | brb | 06:43 |
| daskreech | RC hasn't hit the Koala Repos yet | 06:44 |
| bigbrovar | daskreech: :p | 06:44 |
| bigbrovar | daskreech: well am still on 3.4.4 :p | 06:45 |
| daskreech | bigbrovar: Holy Hell man At lest upgrade to 3.5 :) | 06:45 |
| bigbrovar | daskreech: hope to try out 4.4 again, the last time was a bit of a buggy experience, but I have a spare machine I can try out | 06:46 |
| bigbrovar | daskreech: oh my bad I mean 4.3.4 :p | 06:46 |
| bigbrovar | daskreech: the 3 should be in the middle | 06:46 |
| daskreech | bigbrovar: Yeah yeah cover your shame man :) | 06:49 |
| bigbrovar | daskreech: :p | 06:49 |
| bigbrovar | am sure 4.4 RC is being packaged as we speak | 06:50 |
| nirjhor | back | 06:50 |
| daskreech | It's packaged already for Lynx | 06:50 |
| bigbrovar | daskreech: how has it been generally the beta, last time I tried it, it was very crashy.. but that was a long time ago | 06:50 |
| * daskreech shrugs. I don't use Plasma which people are saying is crashy | 06:51 | |
| daskreech | I don't know what I did today cause things are crashing all over the place but that includes non KDE apps and hardware | 06:51 |
| daskreech | bigbrovar: but then again I can live without any GUI at all so I'm less picky than most people | 06:54 |
| bigbrovar | daskreech: my life is both gui and cli and N900 :p | 06:55 |
| daskreech | bigbrovar: How's KDE on that? | 07:00 |
| bigbrovar | daskreech: I havent tried, but I heard the next version of maemo wouldbe running Qt | 07:02 |
| daskreech | bigbrovar: That's the plan | 07:09 |
| bigbrovar | daskreech: yep thats the plan, I also heard Nokia got the Koffice dudes to dev a version for maemo | 07:10 |
| bigbrovar | daskreech: Nokia is really doing some good stuff for the open source and kde, especially with their work on QT | 07:10 |
| daskreech | bigbrovar: More like Nokia deved a Koffice for Maemo and gave it to KDE | 07:11 |
| daskreech | Qt | 07:11 |
| daskreech | QT is owned by Apple | 07:11 |
| bigbrovar | typo | 07:12 |
| bigbrovar | :p | 07:12 |
| daskreech | :-) | 07:12 |
| bigbrovar | and apple sucks ( you forgot to had that) | 07:12 |
| daskreech | Ha ha Why the hate man? :) | 07:13 |
| titan_ark | Hi. | 07:19 |
| titan_ark | What are these additional passwords that I am asked to enter when I connect to my wifi netowrk? | 07:20 |
| titan_ark | No one active today? | 07:21 |
| Izinucs | titan_ark: perhaps the passwords for your router if you have encryption on | 07:22 |
| titan_ark | lzinucs, yes I do have 1 and I entered that, but I am still being asked for some passkeys again and again | 07:23 |
| faileas | titan_ark: could it be they are incorrect? | 07:23 |
| Izinucs | I've no idea | 07:23 |
| titan_ark | Ah, cant be! | 07:24 |
| jwill | daskreech: Umm, QT is owned by Nokia. | 07:28 |
| faileas | er | 07:29 |
| faileas | there's quicktime, and there's Qt. | 07:29 |
| daskreech | jwill: No Qt is made by Trolltech who is owned by Nokia | 07:29 |
| daskreech | QT is the trademark name of Quicktime owned by Apple | 07:29 |
| jwill | daskreech: QT is owned by Nokia | 07:29 |
| daskreech | jwill: Did Nokia Buy Apple today? | 07:29 |
| jwill | daskreech: QT was originally developed by Trolltech before it was absorbed by Nokia. | 07:30 |
| daskreech | titan_ark: kwallet | 07:30 |
| faileas | jwill: i the t is a small t | 07:30 |
| faileas | *i think the | 07:30 |
| jwill | daskreech:Thought you were ta;king about Qt, not quicktime. This being a kde channel and all. | 07:30 |
| daskreech | jwill: again QT is the legal trademark of QuickTime which is owned by Apple | 07:30 |
| jwill | daskreech: Yeah. | 07:31 |
| daskreech | Qt is the trademark owned by Trolltech which is now the software division inside Nokia | 07:31 |
| jwill | daskreech: Really? | 07:31 |
| daskreech | Really | 07:31 |
| jwill | daskreech: Would you stop now? | 07:31 |
| daskreech | I have | 07:32 |
| daskreech | titan_ark: kwallet is a password/identity manager | 07:33 |
| daskreech | With the idea that you put in a single password once when you login to KDE and then it auto enters your password for all other places where you need one | 07:33 |
| titan_ark_ | Well is there a way I can install the wireless manager of Ubuntu? | 07:34 |
| jwill | The Gnome NetworkManager, titan_ark_? Why? | 07:34 |
| titan_ark_ | jwill, this one is just not letting me get through | 07:35 |
| titan_ark_ | I have 2 routers and I am unable to connect to either. I can get through an unsecure one. | 07:35 |
| jwill | titan_ark_: Do you have the right encryption type set? | 07:35 |
| titan_ark_ | Ah, that I cant remember :( | 07:35 |
| titan_ark_ | Doesnt it select it by default? | 07:36 |
| jwill | titan_ark_: Could be your problem. You might as well check. | 07:36 |
| jwill | titan_ark_: Yeah, it does. But ^ | 07:36 |
| jwill | titan_ark_: You can install networkmanager; it's in the repos. Not sure how well it integrates with KDE, but it does work (as I recall from the dark ages before KNetworkManager) | 07:37 |
| === ben is now known as Guest43953 | ||
| titan_ark_ | hmmm | 07:39 |
| titan_ark_ | damn the NetworkManager closed unexpectedly | 07:41 |
| titan_ark_ | :( | 07:41 |
| jwill | titan_ark_: K? | 07:41 |
| titan_ark_ | yeah KNetworkManager | 07:41 |
| jwill | titan_ark_: :( | 07:41 |
| jwill | titan_ark_: You're upgraded? | 07:41 |
| jwill | titan_ark_: Wait, you can get to an unsecured one? Hmm... Might be a wallet problem? I have experienced the same bug on Gnome, but not KDE. | 07:42 |
| titan_ark_ | No, I wanted to get the wireless first. Have been struggling since yesterday | 07:42 |
| titan_ark_ | Yes it asks me abt the wallet and all :P | 07:43 |
| titan_ark_ | Gnome I could get in easily in the morning | 07:43 |
| titan_ark_ | I just like the kubuntu so much i want this more | 07:43 |
| titan_ark_ | I have traced another problem. the kernel ending 30-17 is unstable on my notebook. | 07:44 |
| titan_ark_ | If i upload to that then there is some filesystem error and I cant boot in | 07:44 |
| jwill | titan_ark_: Ouch. Upload what to what? | 07:45 |
| titan_ark_ | the latest kernel | 07:45 |
| jwill | Oh, upgrade? | 07:45 |
| titan_ark_ | I dont remember the full version number. | 07:45 |
| titan_ark_ | Yeah | 07:45 |
| titan_ark_ | It ends 30-17 | 07:45 |
| jwill | Hm. | 07:46 |
| jwill | Did you run fsck? That often fixes filesystem stuff. | 07:46 |
| titan_ark_ | nope | 07:46 |
| titan_ark_ | I am quite a n00b | 07:47 |
| titan_ark_ | dunno much | 07:47 |
| titan_ark_ | just rying to get a hang of it | 07:47 |
| jwill | Does it drop you to a maintainance shell after the filesystem error? | 07:47 |
| titan_ark_ | nope | 07:47 |
| titan_ark_ | just cannot boot in that is it | 07:47 |
| jwill | What happens? | 07:47 |
| titan_ark_ | the upgrade goes on fine | 07:47 |
| titan_ark_ | I then reboot | 07:47 |
| titan_ark_ | and then cant boot in | 07:47 |
| jwill | Does it say "press Ctrl + D to repair" or something like that? | 07:48 |
| titan_ark_ | no | 07:48 |
| titan_ark_ | just gives a file system error and nothing to go forward | 07:48 |
| jwill | What error message do you get, and what happens afterwards? | 07:48 |
| titan_ark_ | have to force shutdown | 07:48 |
| jwill | Does it say 'doing a regular filesystem check' or something similar, under the kubuntu loading logo? | 07:48 |
| titan_ark_ | I do not remember exactly, it is some kind of a "filesystem error" | 07:48 |
| titan_ark_ | no i dont get to the logo | 07:48 |
| titan_ark_ | btw I am running wubi | 07:49 |
| jwill | Well, you'd have to write down what the error is, so people can help you | 07:49 |
| jwill | If you can't boot into linux... why are you trying to fix something else? | 07:49 |
| jwill | Or can you boot with an earlier kernel? | 07:50 |
| titan_ark_ | hmmm my friend too got the same thing after he upgraded, but he can boot into his earlier kernel | 07:50 |
| titan_ark_ | Well, i just got bugged and reinstalled. | 07:50 |
| jwill | Oh. I thought it was a current problem. | 07:50 |
| jwill | Well, I'm going to sleep. Maybe someone else can help you? | 07:50 |
| titan_ark_ | Okay | 07:51 |
| titan_ark_ | Thank you. | 07:51 |
| titan_ark_ | Good night | 07:51 |

| titan_ark_ | lol :D | 07:51 |
| titan_ark_ | any idea how i can do an upgrade without upgrading the kernel? | 07:56 |

| Peace- | never used gparted on kubuntu | 08:31 |
| phant0m | ? | 08:32 |
| phant0m | why | 08:32 |
| inteliwasp | i do not see partitionmanager, is it in an odd place? | 08:32 |
| Alan502 | Peace-, http://imgur.com/dIVRz.png, any ideas? | 08:32 |
| Peace- | Alan502: yeah 1 moment | 08:32 |
| Peace- | Alan502: first CAPTURE SHOULD NOT TO MAX | 08:32 |
| Peace- | Alan502: *be | 08:33 |
| Peace- | then try to install | 08:33 |
| Peace- | this | 08:33 |
| Peace- | sudo apt-get install sox libsox-fmt-all | 08:33 |
| Peace- | then you will be able to record with konsole | 08:33 |
| Peace- | by typing | 08:33 |
| Peace- | rec out.wav | 08:33 |
| Alan502 | if i lower capture, there's still a lot of noice | 08:33 |
| Alan502 | *noise | 08:33 |
| Alan502 | lol | 08:33 |
| Alan502 | how so? | 08:33 |
| Alan502 | like loquendo software on windows? | 08:34 |
| Peace- | to stop recording just press CTRL C | 08:34 |
| Peace- | then play out.wav | 08:34 |
| Peace- | change capture level | 08:34 |
| Peace- | and increase boost level | 08:34 |
| Peace- | you card should works fine | 08:34 |
| Alan502 | it only makes it worse | 08:34 |
| Alan502 | ah ok | 08:34 |
| Peace- | inteliwasp: seach on the bar partition | 08:35 |
| inteliwasp | do i need to install it? | 08:35 |
| Peace- | inteliwasp: yea | 08:35 |
| inteliwasp | figures | 08:36 |
| Peace- | i used a usb live | 08:36 |
| Peace- | and have installed you could try too | 08:36 |
| Alan502 | still, Peace- , it doesn't sound like it did on windows | 08:37 |
| Alan502 | Peace-, eve tho, i get a much better sound running a VM lol | 08:37 |
| Peace- | Alan502: i think you have only to set well your levels | 08:38 |
| Peace- | because alsa driver seems it's working ifne | 08:38 |
| Peace- | and still you have messed up something | 08:38 |
| Peace- | here on kubuntu i have not esound or pulse | 08:38 |
| Peace- | i have only alsa | 08:38 |
| Peace- | and everything is workinf very fine | 08:38 |
| Alan502 | should i uninstall esound then? | 08:38 |
| Peace- | Alan502: how did you install kubuntu ? | 08:38 |
| Alan502 | what is weird is that capture on a vm is much better | 08:38 |
| Peace- | ubuntu+kde? | 08:39 |
| Alan502 | no, kubuntu amd cd | 08:39 |
| Alan502 | *amd64 | 08:39 |
| Peace- | so why you have said you had pulse? | 08:39 |
| Peace- | kubuntu has not pulse by default | 08:39 |
| Alan502 | i asumed i had pulse because i followed a guide in the ubuntu documentation to improve skpe, and one of it sections had changing pulse for esound | 08:41 |
| Peace- | omg | 08:41 |
| Peace- | so you have messed up | 08:41 |
| Peace- | ubuntu tutorial are not so good for kubuntu | 08:42 |
| Peace- | a lots can be used but some no | 08:42 |
| Alan502 | but it was only sudo apt-get autoremove pulseaudio | 08:42 |
| Alan502 | and then | 08:42 |
| Alan502 | sudo apt-get install esound | 08:42 |
| Peace- | ok | 08:42 |
| Alan502 | pulse audio DID remove tho | 08:42 |
| Alan502 | now i get a message "would you like kubuntu to forget about this devices?" | 08:43 |
| Peace- | Alan502: alan i have an intel alc861 you have an alc888 | 08:44 |
| Peace- | and it's working fine your card i have seen a lots of time | 08:44 |
| Peace- | and should work without problems | 08:44 |
| Alan502 | :sigh: | 08:44 |
| Peace- | i guess there is only something messed up | 08:44 |
| Peace- | some settings | 08:45 |
| Peace- | i mean | 08:45 |
| Peace- | esound for example i ahve never used | 08:45 |
| Alan502 | the alsamixer? | 08:45 |
| Peace- | well i guess yes | 08:45 |
| Peace- | for example if i increase too much capture level i get a lots of noises | 08:45 |
| Peace- | and it seems you have internal microphone too | 08:45 |
| Peace- | so you have 2 controll for capture | 08:46 |
| Peace- | one for internal microphone and another for the external | 08:46 |
| Peace- | you could upload on www.mediafire.com | 08:46 |
| Peace- | some recording | 08:46 |
| Peace- | then you could give me the link | 08:46 |
| titan_ark | Peace-: drivers? | 08:46 |
| Peace- | titan_ark: no i guess it's not drivers that card should work | 08:47 |

| jgt157_ | morning, can someone help with a runlevel issue? | 14:15 |
| jgt157_ | lots of people in here, but no one that can help with a run level issue? | 14:18 |
| crimsun | would you be more detailed, please? | 14:19 |
| llutz | !anyone | jgt157_ | 14:20 |
| ubottu | jgt157_: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? | 14:20 |
| jgt157_ | I have changed my network manager to network-manager-gnome. Problem is now the system doesn't start in runlevel 2. | 14:21 |
| jgt157_ | If you run runlevel it says unknown | 14:21 |
| jgt157_ | sudo init 2 starts up runlevel 2, but I need to find out why the nm-applet isn't starting in runlevel 2 | 14:22 |
| crimsun | how did you change to n-m-g? | 14:22 |
| jgt157_ | sudo apt-get install network-manager-gnome | 14:22 |
| crimsun | nm-applet is normally started by your graphical session | 14:22 |
| crimsun | it really is unrelated to runlevels (aside from single and multiuser, which in Debian/Ubuntu is just 1 vs 2-5) | 14:23 |
| jgt157_ | I guess the question is, why isn't the system starting runlevel 2 anymore and can any help fix it | 14:23 |
| crimsun | err, it should be starting in multiuser unless you've changed something in /etc/inittab | 14:24 |
| crimsun | I presume this is an upstart-enabled version of Kubuntu? | 14:24 |
| jgt157_ | I'm running karmic | 14:24 |
| crimsun | ok, and /var/run/utmp is readable? | 14:25 |
| dagon_ | hey you guys :D | 14:25 |
| jgt157_ | I didn't change anything except the network manager | 14:25 |
| crimsun | jgt157_: I'm trying to address your symptoms individually | 14:26 |
| crimsun | jgt157_: first, the runlevel "unknown" one, so I need to know the permissions and/or existence of said file | 14:26 |
| crimsun | it should be owned by root:utmp in mode 0664 | 14:27 |
| crimsun | and, 'last -x' should corroborate your experience | 14:27 |
| jgt157_ | which file are you referring to crimsun? | 14:28 |
| crimsun | 09:25 < crimsun> ok, and /var/run/utmp is readable? | 14:29 |
| dagon_ | I've got an annoying problem with flash(?). I can't watch videos on YouTube with sound.. | 14:29 |
| === shadeslayer is now known as ____Seveas_____ | ||
| jgt157_ | yes /var/run/utmp is 0664 | 14:32 |
| === ____Seveas_____ is now known as shadeslayer | ||
| crimsun | ok, does last -x also not give you runlevel info? | 14:33 |
| ToxinPowe | dagon_, look at your Kmixer | 14:34 |
| jgt157_ | I've run sudo init 2, so yes I get runlevel 2 now. I would need to reboot to start with no runlevel | 14:35 |
| alienkid10 | I want to try KDE but I don't have enough bandwidth for kubuntu-desktop what are the essential packages I need to log in to a KDE session? | 14:35 |
| crimsun | jgt157_: the failure to switch to runlevel 2 would still be logged | 14:36 |

| n8wulf | stupid k/board | 15:15 |
| thegatekeeper | ok | 15:15 |
| n8wulf | ngong, try just the sudo apt-get update first, maybe any repositories not updated yet, will get refreshed | 15:16 |
| BluesKaj | ngong, just check your sources.list and make sure the deb lines are uncommented (no#s) in front , then in the konsole, sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install konversation | 15:16 |

| n8wulf | gatekeeper, I came in late, what is the problem mate? | 15:18 |
| ngong | n8wulf: I did a sudo aptitude which could not understand line #5 of sources.list, that is: "deb karmic main restricted" that I do not understand | 15:18 |
| ngong | n8wulf: it's a very fresh installation, done no changes so far | 15:19 |

| n8wulf | ? | 15:51 |
| ward__ | but that's when you enter the tab so multiple trees open | 15:51 |
| BluesKaj | n8wulf, well the site i posted is fine for karmic , if you guys are afraid of new repos then that's a different matter | 15:51 |

| Izinucs | njathan: thanks! that worked like a champ | 16:32 |
| Izinucs | Ok .. here's something irritating in Dolphin. Using split screen and moving a file from one directory to another results in a dialoge box asking if you want to "move, copy or link here" and next to each of those option is the shortcut key. Ctrl click drag doesn't work for "copy". With a single file the file ends up un-selected... with multiple files it unselects the one you were pointing at when you hit CTRL.. Any solutions? or am I | 16:38 |

| Alarm | are plasmoids related to widgets ? | 16:46 |
| philyaw | What should I google to figure this out | 16:46 |
| maco | Alarm: mostly theyre the same thing | 16:46 |
| maco | plasmoid is the technical term | 16:46 |
| maco | widget is the user-friendly one | 16:46 |
| maco | and then what language is used to write them has some bearing | 16:46 |

| Mamarok | newbie123abc: what are you doing on Beta 2 if you are new? This is not meant for productive use | 16:49 |
| maco | philyaw: do you have internet access? just disable the cd and use the online repositories | 16:49 |
| Alarm | thats why i am trying to download theoone from kde-look | 16:49 |
| maco | philyaw: it may be assuming you have a *set* of cds with all the repos | 16:49 |
| philyaw | ah | 16:49 |
| philyaw | I pointed Kubuntu to several repositories | 16:49 |
| philyaw | I typed in Cancel | 16:49 |
| philyaw | and i think it did something | 16:49 |
| maco | but itll try to use the cd instead of the repositories if you have it enabled | 16:50 |
| maco | so disable the cd | 16:50 |
| philyaw | oh | 16:50 |

| gigi_ | Hello? Tiny help please.. | 17:34 |
| rork | gigi_: which game and from which source? | 17:34 |
| gigi_ | Hi rork..thanks.. | 17:34 |
| gigi_ | ok.. | 17:34 |
| gigi_ | I am new so I'll try to explain | 17:34 |
| gigi_ | source is.. | 17:35 |
| gigi_ | hold on.. | 17:35 |
| gigi_ | http://sourceforge.net/projects/tressette | 17:35 |
| gigi_ | game is tressette | 17:36 |
| gigi_ | already downloaded | 17:36 |
| gigi_ | extracted | 17:36 |
| gigi_ | and followed stupidly instrunctions | 17:36 |
| gigi_ | but doesn't work | 17:36 |
| rork | I guess the instructions are run "make" and "make install"? | 17:37 |
| === dendrobates is now known as dendro-afk | ||

| ilumi | is there an easy way to enable boot log on 9.10? | 17:38 |
| rork | did you get an error at either of them? | 17:38 |
| llutz | consider using checkinstall instead of just "make install" | 17:38 |
| gigi_ | don't understand : what does "easy way to enable boot log on 9.10" mean? | 17:39 |
| llutz | ilumi: /etc/default/bootlogd set "BOOTLOGD_ENABLE=yes" | 17:40 |
| ilumi | llutz, did that, but still no log | 17:40 |
| ilumi | llutz, empty file | 17:40 |
| shadeslayer | yeah sorry for that | 17:41 |
| llutz | ilumi: not sure about karmic, but you need package sysvinit for bootlogd | 17:41 |
| llutz | ilumi: i guess it will interfere with upstart | 17:41 |
| shadeslayer | gigi_: whats the last message you got from me? | 17:41 |
| ilumi | llutz, ok, i found a post that talks about that, but that's not an easy way to get it to work | 17:42 |
| llutz | ilumi: hopefully there will be an easier one, when *buntu stops integrating upstart or upstart reaches a usable level | 17:43 |
| gigi | what..? | 17:43 |
| shadeslayer | gigi: untar the folder and check for any README and CMake files | 17:44 |
| ilumi | llutz, thanks | 17:44 |
| gigi | here you have the readme file text | 17:44 |
| gigi | Basic Installation | 17:45 |
| gigi | ================== | 17:45 |
| gigi | These are generic installation instructions. | 17:45 |
| gigi | The `configure' shell script attempts to guess correct values for | 17:45 |
| gigi | various system-dependent variables used during compilation. It uses | 17:45 |
| FloodBotK1 | gigi: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 17:45 |

| Bonster | morning | 17:45 |
| gigi | http://paste.ubuntu.com/354039/ | 17:50 |
| shadeslayer | gigi: do you have the build files? | 17:51 |
| shadeslayer | like dev packages etc | 17:51 |
| shadeslayer | gigi: sudo apt-get install build-essential | 17:52 |
| shadeslayer | gigi: that installs the required basic dev packages | 17:52 |
| shadeslayer | gigi_:there? | 17:55 |
| gigi_ | yeah | 17:55 |
| gigi_ | do you need again the url? | 17:55 |
| gigi_ | or the explanation? | 17:55 |
| shadeslayer | gigi_: did you install the package? | 17:55 |
| shadeslayer | nope | 17:55 |
| gigi_ | no!!! | 17:55 |
| gigi_ | need the paste bin? | 17:56 |

| gigi_ | hold on | 17:56 |
| gunsofbrixton | hi, what's a good vector drawing software? | 17:56 |
| shadeslayer | gigi_: please install the build-essential package for compiling | 17:56 |
| gigi_ | which means?? | 17:56 |
| shadeslayer | gunsofbrixton: one sec | 17:57 |
| gunsofbrixton | shadeslayer: sure :) | 17:57 |
| shadeslayer | gunsofbrixton: for kde : karbon-kde4 | 17:57 |
| shadeslayer | gigi_: its a basic package which has the CMake compiler and some standard stuff.... 5 MB download | 17:58 |
| shadeslayer | gunsofbrixton: there might be better ones out there,but karbon is KDE specific | 17:58 |
| gigi_ | how do I get it and then which instructions do I have to give to the terminal? | 17:58 |
| shadeslayer | gigi_: um im telling you as we go along,you can read the README you just posted carefully if you want to cross check... | 17:59 |
| gunsofbrixton | shadeslayer: ok cool, I'll give that a try | 17:59 |
| shadeslayer | gigi_: well run ./configure in the unpacked folder and that should configure everything for you | 18:00 |
| shadeslayer | !vector | 18:00 |
| gigi_ | did it many times | 18:00 |
| gigi_ | doesn' work | 18:00 |

| shadeslayer | gigi_: >< use : sudo apt-get install build-essential : in a terminal | 18:02 |

| ubottu | gigi_: Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first) | 18:02 |
| shadeslayer | gigi_: better be quick ill be offline in 20 mins | 18:03 |

| shadeslayer | tsimpson: eh? | 18:11 |

| shadeslayer | gigi_: wasnt that the readme you posted? | 18:14 |
| tsimpson | shadeslayer: the whole thing needs converting, you install tofrodos and use "dos2unix <filename>" to convert | 18:14 |
| gigi_ | yes | 18:14 |
| shadeslayer | gigi_: yeah so i need the INSTALL file mentioned in the list | 18:14 |

| gigi_ | that is that one | 18:15 |
| draik | How can I get my old config of GRUB? | 18:15 |

| tsimpson | if you type a command in a shell, and it's not install, it should tell you what package(s) has it | 18:26 |
| shadeslayer | tsimpson: libsdl-net1.2-dev worked too | 18:26 |
| gigi_ | so what do I exactly do now? | 18:27 |
| tsimpson | because libsdl-net1.2-dev depends on libsdl1.2-dev, so you basically installed both | 18:27 |
| shadeslayer | gigi_: install libsdl1.2-dev with : sudo apt-get install libsdl1.2-dev | 18:27 |

| cybeh | am getting a resolution for 1280x720 | 19:57 |
| Izinucs | cybeh: what kind of card are you using? | 19:58 |

| cybeh | nopes Intel has a manborad with onboard DVI | 19:59 |
| cybeh | read the forum post it will help | 19:59 |
| Izinucs | cybeh: did.. was just looking for the vid card type.. Intel cards are pretty well supported but have had some issues with the driver in the last couple of releases.. 9.10 I think is much better and will be better still in 10.04. The thing is xorg.conf isn't really used unless you custom write one.. the entire vid system is controlled by xrandr and can be manipulated via cli for adding resolutions that are not immediately recognized. | 20:01 |
| Izinucs | cybeh: type xrandr into a terminal and it will output what resolutions are currently listed for xrandr to make use of. | 20:03 |
| Izinucs | cybeh: check out http://wiki.debian.org/XStrikeForce/HowToRandR12 | 20:06 |

| cybeh_ | do you have any suggestion? | 20:10 |

| cybeh_ | lemme restart xorg and come back | 20:18 |

| Izinucs | but not overly intuitive.. you have know about it then search for the how to's.. for a new user that can be problemmatic.. (one reason why I stick with nvidia) | 20:19 |

| Izinucs | philyaw: maybe.. I miss read.. headers for an existing kernel? not a kernel? then it will be in the package manager.. | 21:13 |
| philyaw | Eh, I'm trying to get my wireless card to work in Kubuntu and I get error messages when following any guide | 21:14 |
| === dendro-afk is now known as dendrobates | ||
| philyaw | All guides I'm following are specific for Ubuntu | 21:14 |
| philyaw | Could the fact I'm using Kubunt affect the installation process? | 21:15 |
| Izinucs | philyaw: nope. | 21:15 |
| Izinucs | philyaw: headers should be in the repo's for your kernel though.. they have to be matched to your kernel.. | 21:15 |
| philyaw | lzinucs, "You need a recent kernel, at least 2.6.16, with header files for the | 21:16 |
| philyaw | kernel. Make sure there is a link to the kernel source from the modules | 21:16 |
| philyaw | directory should have at least 'include' directory and '.config' file." | 21:16 |
| philyaw | I have most recent headers yet I don't have the .config file | 21:17 |
| Izinucs | philyaw: are you running the 9.10 release? | 21:17 |

| iconmefisto | uname -r | 21:19 |
| philyaw | 2.6.31-14-generic | 21:19 |
| Izinucs | philyaw: on my system I have both the .16 & the newer .17 .. open kPackageKit and search for "headers" the packages with an "X" next to them on the right means they are installed.. If you havent done your updates yet do that.. sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade .. and you should receive them | 21:19 |

| soee | ok here is the tip how to crash program luncher: run pl using alt+f1, type some text and hold right arrow, it will crash, run it again and o the same, this time its dead for good :/ | 22:00 |
| iconmefisto | Daatr: you have to remove the packages that the kubuntu-desktop meta-package installed. follow the link I posted ^^ | 22:00 |
| soee | *alt+f2 | 22:00 |
| Daatr | thank you! :) | 22:00 |
| Xnet0 | Hello, I am having problems with the GRUB bootloader. Could anyone help? | 22:07 |
| soee | someone who is using vlc ? | 22:07 |
| iconmefisto | Xnet0, soee: details? | 22:08 |
| ahsan | plz help me wid Kpackagelist | 22:08 |
| iconmefisto | ahsan: what's wrong? | 22:09 |
| soee | inclement: if i run vlc (doesnt matter if it plas something or not) there are some lags when i draw selection on desktop | 22:09 |
| Xnet0 | iconmefistom, Error: 17 (which i know to be related to partition tables. After looking at the partitions on my hard drive, the Windows XP partition is black coloured and has a warning sign. The name is "unknown". I am unable to boot into both Liinux and Windows. Also, Linux cannot recognise the harddrive.) | 22:10 |
| Xnet0 | I feel as if a major error has occured. I think I lost all of my stuff. | 22:10 |
| iconmefisto | Xnet0: karmic 9.10 ? | 22:12 |
| Xnet0 | No, its actually 9.04, but the issue is with grub.. I cant seem to recover my files. | 22:12 |
| Xnet0 | The Windows partition is unaccessable. | 22:13 |
| iconmefisto | Xnet0: so you haven't installed grub2, right? | 22:13 |
| iconmefisto | !grub | 22:13 |
| 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. | 22:13 |
| Xnet0 | thx ill check it out | 22:14 |
| siegie | I can't transfer files from my phone with bluetooth, to my notebook. I must give an access code. Communication from my notebook to the phone works fine. Does anyone know the default code? | 22:15 |
| iconmefisto | soee: seems you have quite a few desktop-related quirks. maybe try creating a new user and see if it's still the same there. or rename ~/.kde/share/config to ~/.kde/share/config.backup and log out/in and see if there is any difference with new settings | 22:18 |
| soee | iconmefisto: ok ill try | 22:18 |
| iconmefisto | soee: if you do the renaming of config folder, to restore your old desktop settings you should rename config.backup when kde is NOT running, then log in | 22:19 |
| siegie | problem solved Its 0000 | 22:22 |
