[00:06] <Bearcat> folks, i just installed the most recent kubuntu install disc over an older installation. When i log-in to kde i see the desktop flash for a moment then it boots me back out to the kdm screen. Somtimes the splash screen gets as far as the desktop icon and it boots me out. Looking in my .xsession-errors file i see that it's complaining about x-terminal-emulator : Fatal IO error: client killed.
[00:06] <Bearcat> any ideas? I'm not sure where else to look
[00:12] <xixor> yo, if I just installed a package and it installed a ton of other libs, and now I don't want that package, is there a way I can uninstall everything that was installed?
[00:13] <paulsomebody> xixor: Maybe 'sudo apt-get autoremove'?
[00:16] <Izinucs> Quassel just stopped connecting to freenode.. and nothing that I do will let it connect.. any ideas how to fix that?
[00:17] <xixor> !strigi
[00:19] <xixor> so... how do I use strigi?
[00:20] <Izinucs> working again.. weird
[00:21] <paulsomebody> xixor: It have no relation to your problem.
[00:22] <paulsomebody> xixor: Uninstall package by KPackageKit and then run command I advised.
[00:45] <paulsomebody> I want to upgrade to the KDE 4.4 RC, but I have a lot of blocked updates. Among them libatcore4 version 4.6.
[00:46] <paulsomebody> And 'kde-window-manager' too. Where can I found a reason why they are blocked?
[00:51] <gh0s7> hey guys i keep getting an error when trying to run the live cd of kubuntu
[00:52] <paulsomebody> gh0s7: What error?
[00:53] <gh0s7> Video mode not supported
[00:53] <gh0s7> on the live cd when i try to boot
[00:53] <paulsomebody> What video mode are you trying to boot into?
[00:54] <gh0s7> how do i change the video mode?
[00:54] <gh0s7> im just hitting try ubuntu without installing
[00:54] <gh0s7> does this with ubuntu and kubuntu
[00:55] <gh0s7> Integrated NVIDIA Geforce 6150 LE graphics
[00:55] <paulsomebody> In the bottom you should see F… things. One among them changes video modes.
[00:55] <gh0s7> ok thankyou will try paulsomebody you've been a great help and thankyou for your time
[00:56] <paulsomebody> gh0s7: Thank you, I should learn irony from you.

[02:29] <luigiguy91> I am not sure if i paid for support.
[02:29] <maco> luigiguy91: yes this is the official support channel for kubuntu
[02:29] <maco> Empty_foo: stop winding luigiguy91 up
[02:29] <Empty_foo> ok.. then this is where you ask people to help you if they can.. lol

[04:24] <Bearcat> Folks. A client of mine just did an upgrade to kubuntu 9.10.  They have a chromium video onboard graphics chip and they get the login problem. Kde starts to load at best and then drops back to the login screen or i just get a flash of a white square and it drops back to the login screen.  I'd love any help i can get. I've been searching for hours. Changing the driver to vesa has no effect. moving the .kde dir has no effect, putting
[04:24] <Bearcat> Option "NoAccel" "true" has no effect. I don't know what to do next.
[04:37] <urthmover> new to KDE here....what is the kayboard shortcut to bring up the "Start" button in the lower left?
[04:37] <urthmover> keyboard
[04:39]  * urthmover is surprised how quiet it is in here
[04:41] <Bearcat> urthmover: i am too. all of them must be sleeping
[04:42] <urthmover> wierd
[04:42] <urthmover> there must be north american people around
[04:44] <Bearcat> urthmover: yeah tell me about it
[04:45] <urthmover> I'm so used to gnome...this kde stuff looks pretty but is kinda funky...Konsole is beginning to feel cluttery and irssi is acting strange
[05:01] <meowbuntu> are there any good applications for extracting audio cds to mp3 etc
[05:02] <genii> !rip
[05:03] <meowbuntu> genii, i am looking for a crossplatform application for gnome and kde
[05:04] <tsimpson> K3B can rip CDs
[05:05] <tsimpson> as long as you have libk3b6-extracodecs installed for mp3 support
[05:05] <Bearcat> i'm so frikin' confused. I can't even switch to the vesa driver. I can't *believe* this bug was allowed to escape to 9.10.
[05:06] <Bearcat> hundreds of people are gonna be with out kde and apparently there is no fix.
[05:06] <genii> There's also CLI ... ripit, grabcd-rip
[05:06] <Bearcat> just "too bad" get a new video card. rrrrrrr
[05:06] <Bearcat> this is a very common on-board video chip too
[05:08] <tsimpson> urthmover: Alt-F1 by default
[05:08] <urthmover> I have just installed kubuntu-desktop.  What is the keyboard shortcut to bring up the launch menu?  Alt+F1 Alt+F2 do not seem to do anything?
[05:08] <tsimpson> right click the launcher to get to its settings, there is a place to configure it there
[05:09] <urthmover> so there an no keyboard shortcuts by default is that right?
[05:09] <kubian> alt+f2 will bringup sometjhing like a run command
[05:09] <tsimpson> that's not what I said, by default it should be Alt-F1
[05:10] <urthmover> kubian: nothing happen when I press Alt+f2 strangely no matter what window is in focus
[05:11] <meowbuntu> sound-juicer does not allow me to extract to mp3 how can i do that. do i need a codex for it
[05:11] <kubian> urthmover: don't understand exactly what's your problem
[05:12] <urthmover> kubian: pressing Alt+F1 does not work from anywhere....at all  nothing happens
[05:13] <kubian> what r u trying to do? if u installed kubuntu then during startup you select what DE u want gnome or kde session
[05:13] <urthmover> I chose kde for the default environment
[05:14] <kubian> if kded session then you can see the task panel below and on the far left is the "K" to start things
[05:15] <urthmover> kubian: yes I am definitely using KDE .  the problem is that I am unable to figure out any keyboard shortcuts to do things  like bring up the launch menu
[05:15] <kubian> u shud configure them in system-settings
[05:16] <urthmover> I have read the Alt+F1 is the default for that....but mine doesn't seem to be working correctly.  when I look in the Standard keyboard shortcuts....I'm having trouble figuring out which binding belongs to the launcher menu for example
[05:17] <meowbuntu> how do i get the codex to convert to mp3
[05:17] <urthmover> kubian: have I described this issue thoroughly?
[05:17] <kubian> i never used kb srt cuts but since u mentioned it i just used it and alt+f1 worked
[05:18] <urthmover> kubian: bummer....I like to use the mouse as little as possible
[05:18] <urthmover> kubian: thanks
[05:21] <kubian> urthmover: in global shortcuts..I see it there in plasma workspace
[05:24] <Bearcat> can anyone help me get a unichrome onboard graphics card working with KDE in 9.10?  This is just nuts
[05:24] <Bearcat> i've been working on this for 6 hours
[05:25] <urthmover> kubian: well I rebooted and now Alt+F2 brings up a run menu  which is nice...but Alt+F1 still doesn't bring up the launcher
[05:25] <genii> Bearcat: Does: apt-cache policy xserver-xorg-video-openchrome                show that driver as installed?
[05:25] <urthmover> kubian: oh well I'll dig around the keyboard shortcuts to see what I can find
[05:26] <titan_ark> damn, hibernate doesnt seem to turn of the hard disk!
[05:26] <titan_ark> why is it so?
[05:36] <Bearcat> genii: thanks! I'll check
[05:38] <Bearcat> genii: yes. it is. So is vesa and via, both of which i have tried
[05:41] <DBCOOPA> i installed ubuntu 9.10 last night and haven't been able to get sound to work. any thoughts
[05:43] <titan_ark> DBCOOPA install alsamixer
[05:44] <DBCOOPA> whats the package called?
[05:45] <DBCOOPA> it appears to be installed actually, none of the levels seem to be turned down.
[05:46] <DBCOOPA> course, i'm not sure what some of the options are to right.
[05:46] <titan_ark> oh
[05:46] <titan_ark> could you paste a screenshot?
[05:47] <titan_ark> i am a n00b myself, but just configured mine, so i am not sure if i can help, i could try though
[05:48] <DBCOOPA> this is my first five minutes using konversation, not sure how. :)
[05:48] <titan_ark> :D
[05:49] <kubian> urthmover: in global shortcuts select the plasma workspace and u can see there alt+f1 to activate the app launcher widget
[05:49] <Bearcat> wow. I'm gonna loose a client over this. I can't believe kubuntu does not have a working driver for this chip
[05:49] <Bearcat> i mean it's one of the most common on-board chips out there.
[05:50] <DBCOOPA> i can send you this however. :)
[05:50] <Bearcat> i don't understand why i can do an apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-via and via is not found.
[05:50] <Bearcat> when i ask for it in xorg.conf
[05:50] <titan_ark> DBCOOPA: use http://imagebin.ca/
[05:51] <titan_ark> actually, configuring through terminal would be better, but i dont know how to do it
[05:52] <DBCOOPA> http://imagebin.ca/view/jdiNMtL.html
[05:54] <titan_ark> lol you seem to be using a newer version than me. It looks okay.
[05:54] <DBCOOPA> well thats not good.
[05:55] <titan_ark> I would suggest you join the #Ubuntu channel as you are on gnome and none of the pros seem to be here
[05:55] <titan_ark> Prolly someone there will be able to help you
[05:55] <DBCOOPA> prolly good idea.
[05:56] <titan_ark> good luck :)
[05:56] <DBCOOPA> appreciate it.

[08:56] <louis> someone knows virtualbox?
[08:57] <louis> Hi! Anyway:)
[09:06] <Krezkey> hey folks....can anyone tell me the app name that lets you switch between window managers. like kde,gnome,emerald
[09:08] <ForgeAus> hehe kdm?
[09:08] <ForgeAus> its where you log out and log back in
[09:08] <ForgeAus> selecting the WM in the process...
[09:09] <Krezkey> I thought there was one that you can get to from system settings
[09:09] <ForgeAus> its also not an app you run as much as it is a service/daemon thingy that is ran for you
[09:09] <ForgeAus> well not so much in system settings
[09:09] <ForgeAus> thats actually a kde thing
[09:09] <ForgeAus> (used to be kcontrol in KDE and system-settings was a custom one for Kubuntu)
[09:09] <ForgeAus> but now its merged into one kinda...
[09:09] <ForgeAus> anyway...
[09:09] <Krezkey> I thought I saw a switcher tool in settings in one of the distros
[09:09] <ForgeAus> KDM is where you set gnome, kde, etc...
[09:10] <ForgeAus> but you can run stuff like kwin -replace or fluxbox -replace or whatever wm your using
[09:10] <Krezkey> ok...now how do I do it...lol
[09:10] <ForgeAus> (note: theres a difference between a WM and a Desktop
[09:10] <Krezkey> change it in kde I mean
[09:10] <ForgeAus> Gnome is a desktop, (uses metacity which is the WM its based on)
[09:11] <ForgeAus> KDE is a desktop (runs on kwin WM)
[09:11] <ForgeAus> there a few desktops out there, but many more WM's
[09:11] <Krezkey> well I added emerald and some window themes and wanted to try them out. but as you can see I can't figure it out
[09:11] <ForgeAus> emerald is compiz isn't it?
[09:12] <Krezkey> it said it was compiz addon and wm app. so not sure
[09:12] <Krezkey> it is standalone or have to hace compiz
[09:13] <Krezkey> have to
[09:13] <ForgeAus> yeah compiz is a WM that gives 3D fx for desktop, really you shouldn't need it with KDE4 since Kwin has 3dFX etc...
[09:13] <ForgeAus> but Emerald is just a part of it that lets you select decorators basically...
[09:14] <Krezkey> thats what I wanted to try...the decorators
[09:14] <ForgeAus> ok
[09:15] <Krezkey> guess I'll mess with it a little more
[09:15] <Krezkey> thanks

[11:52] <fr33dom_> any opinions?!
[11:52] <soee> good morning
[11:52] <tsimpson> fr33dom: /dev/sda1 is not a directory, it's a device
[11:52] <anakinz> Then it places the 12 GB as "free space" it doesent ad it to sd1..  and sd1 is now gone, it´s now called sda5..!
[11:52] <tsimpson> you should be able to extend it

[12:50] <paulsomebody_> I have a problem installing drivers for my multi functional. Driver packages are okay, GDebi says all dependencies are satisfied, but when I install first of two packages GDebi provides me with an error message stating than it needs but cannot find package named 'libcupsys2'. Ubuntu Package Search says that this package is already provided by 'libcups2'. What could I do to finally fix it?
[12:51] <paulsomebody_> 'libcupsys2' is already installed.
[12:52] <paulsomebody_> There were no such a problem on Ubuntu 9.04, it revealed itself when I get to the fresh installation of karmic.

[14:53] <paulsomebody_> People, could anyone help me with my problem?
[14:54] <Kolia> !ask | paulsomebody
[14:54] <Zhenya> Good morning everyone!
[14:55] <paulsomebody> I know that, I have described it a little above.
[14:55] <daskreech> I haven't heard it
[14:55] <daskreech> hi Zhenya
[14:55] <Zhenya> daskreech: HI!
[14:55] <Zhenya> guys, i'm trying to build some shortcuts in the audio player, what does the 'meta' key mean?
[14:56] <daskreech> Alt
[14:56] <paulsomebody> I have a problem installing drivers for my multi functional. Driver packages are okay, GDebi says all dependencies are satisfied, but when I install first of two packages GDebi provides me with an error message stating than it needs but cannot find package named 'libcupsys2'. Ubuntu Package Search says that this package is already provided by 'libcups2'. What could I do to finally fix it? 'libcupsys2' is already installed. There
[14:56] <paulsomebody> were no such a problem on Ubuntu 9.04, it revealed itself when I get to the fresh installation of karmic.
[14:56] <daskreech> for most keyboards
[14:56] <daskreech>  Can be the apple key on an apple keyboard
[14:56] <daskreech>  and near anything on a Dvorak
[14:56] <paulsomebody> Or «Win» key.
[14:56] <BluesKaj> !meta
[14:56] <daskreech> paulsomebody: try install them both at the same time
[14:57]  * daskreech chuckles at BluesKaj
[14:57] <daskreech> Good pull :)
[14:57] <paulsomebody> They don't depend upon each other, they depend upon 'libcupsys2'.
[14:57] <Zhenya> hmmm the alt key doesn't work inthe amarok, :(
[14:58] <daskreech> paulsomebody: Ah where did you get them?
[14:58] <paulsomebody> From the canon official site.
[14:58] <BluesKaj> !metapackage
[14:59] <BluesKaj> that's what i was looking for
[14:59] <ilumi> yoyoyoyoyoyo
[14:59] <ilumi> you guys seen that video, where guys girlfriend smashed his ps3?  awesome
[15:00] <genii> !ot | ilumi
[15:03] <paulsomebody_> BluesKaj: Is this related to my question?
[15:05] <BluesKaj> paulsomebody_, i don't like using gdebi installer because it fails sometimes . Use the terminal : 'sudo dpkg -i 'name of package'
[15:05] <paulsomebody_> BluesKaj: Still doesn't work, I have tried that.
[15:06] <paulsomebody_> BluesKaj: Have your read what my problem is?
[15:06] <BluesKaj> paulsomebody_, make sure you have all your source repositotries enabled in your package manager or sources.list
[15:06] <BluesKaj> err repositories
[15:07] <paulsomebody_> BluesKaj: Hmm. I have.
[15:08] <paulsomebody_> BluesKaj: Problem is — package 'libcupsys2' is no longer present in repository, it's features are now provided with 'libcups2' packages or something like that. I have read this in the Ubuntu Package Search pages. But this driver still depends upon this old package.
[15:08] <genii> paulsomebody_: I'd suggest: sudo dpkg -i --ignore-depends=libcupsys2 <packagename-from-Canon-here>
[15:09] <paulsomebody_> genii: That is idea.
[15:10] <BluesKaj> paulsomebody_, yeah , unfortunately the printer/cups driver situation is a problem with some printers. If you have a HP printer try the hplip driver package . Otherwise search for a separate driver package for your printer combo device
[15:11] <daskreech> It's canon
[15:11] <paulsomebody_> It is canon and I have good, working official driver.
[15:12] <paulsomebody_> BluesKaj: I appreciate your willing to help, but maybe it's worth reading questions before giving answers?
[15:12] <paulsomebody_> genii: Thank you, it worked.
[15:12] <genii> paulsomebody_: Welcome
[15:14] <BluesKaj> paulsomebody_, you mentioned your 'multi functional" ...perhaps you could be more specific ...multifunctional drivers using the cups system indicates a printer/fax/scanner
[15:15] <paulsomebody_> BluesKaj: That's okay now.
[15:15] <daskreech> paulsomebody_: he's not paid to sit here and help. He may have a life beyond this room which he needs to attend to
[15:15] <daskreech> paulsomebody_: Paitence is needed on both sides here
[15:16] <paulsomebody_> daskreech: What a news. I haven't even thought about it.  I thought I was writing to my paid support channel, sorry. That is what you would like to hear?
[15:16] <BluesKaj> paulsomebody_, maybe i din't see your original question .. I just got here 40 mins ago
[15:17] <daskreech> paulsomebody_: ha ha No Just perhaps he did not see where you mentioned canon
[15:17] <paulsomebody_> BluesKaj: What are we arguing about? I have been already helped, solved my problem and go on with computing happily.
[15:17] <daskreech> Indeed
[15:18] <ilumi>  thanks, so i installed java as root, and im trying to run a java program as user but it cant find java, how can i make sure that all the java programs that run as user can see java?
[15:19] <paulsomebody_> To run java program you should probably type 'java <program>' or ''java -jar <program>'.
[15:19] <BluesKaj> not arguing . you accused me of not reading your original question ..which I did read, then several lines down you happened to mention canon without addressing anyone in particular
[15:19] <paulsomebody_> BluesKaj: I see that really displeased you.
[15:20] <BluesKaj> I thought it desrved an answer
[15:23] <Peace-> !offtopic
[15:39] <compertos> hello
[15:39] <paulsomebody> compertos: Yes?
[15:39] <daskreech> !hi | compertos
[15:46] <subito> hello, i'm on ubuntu, but i've installed kubuntu-desktop, now that i want kde 4.4 RC1, i've added the kubuntu-ppa on my sources.list, but when if i type apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade, the kde packages are not upgraded (but i got a few upgrades for other packages)
[15:49] <Peace-> subito: what you done ... ubuntu + kubuntu desktop = messed system for me
[15:49] <Peace-> subito: anyway...
[15:50] <tsimpson> subito: did you read http://www.kubuntu.org/news/kde-sc-4.4-rc-1 ?
[15:50] <Peace-> :)
[15:50] <subito> tsimpson: well it just says to add the ppa
[15:50] <subito> Peace-: actually it's not for me :d
[15:51] <tsimpson> subito: which PPA did you add exactly?
[15:51] <subito> tsimpson: "deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-ppa/beta/ubuntu karmic main" in the sources.list
[15:51]  * genii ponders backports
[15:51] <subito> genii: what?
[15:52] <tsimpson> subito: when you do "kde4-config --version" what does it say you have?
[15:53] <subito> tsimpson: it's for me and my friend is not available, but i guess he still has kde 4.3.4, or maybe he didn't realize that he had upgraded
[15:54] <subito> tsimpson: but i think he would have realized it
[15:54] <tsimpson> maybe, but all the updated packages are in that repository
[15:54] <tsimpson> and others have upgraded with it just fine
[15:56] <subito> tsimpson: here is what he got when he tried 'dist-upgrade' http://pastebin.com/m2324bcb4
[15:57] <tsimpson> as long as he ran "sudo apt-get update" before that, it would have worked
[15:57] <tsimpson> (as far as I can tell without more information)
[16:00] <subito> tsimpson: i'll give you more when he'ill come back :)
[16:25] <Kelytharun> hello
[16:27] <ilumi> sup sup
[16:27] <Kelytharun> I am in need of a little a help. I'm trying to get Kubuntu working on a friend's computer and get stuck at a point. She has a Sony HDR XR500VE camcorder, and I can't get any program to edit or at least convert the AVCHD files it makes.
[16:28] <Kelytharun> I have tried Kdenlive, PiTiVi, LiVeS, Avidemux, Cinelerra, Openshot so far
[16:29] <Kelytharun> they all either crash when I try to load up a file from the camera, or refuse to load it
[16:30] <Kelytharun> any ideas?
[16:30] <ilumi> Kelytharun: http://www.fsckin.com/2008/01/03/transcoding-mtsm2ts-avchd-video-files-with-free-software/
[16:33] <Kelytharun> thanks Ilumi, looking through it
[16:34] <wftl> My weekly question on the subject. Has anyone, anywhere, actually gotten akonadi to work with KDE 4.4 on Kubuntu Karmic? If so, can you tell me/us how?
[16:35] <wftl> I haven't been able to use Kontact for days because Akonadi is always starting up and never actually starts.
[16:35] <darkham> hey people, what about the package manager and kde4.4RC1?
[16:36] <ilumi> isn't 4.4 a dev version?
[16:37] <darkham> ilumi, yes is a relase candidate
[16:37] <wftl> ilumi: RC1 right now
[16:37] <wftl> Which means it's a developer version, but should be pretty damn close to the real thing by now.
[16:41] <xorred> karmic, can't join to a pptp vpn - it appears in the list of connections but I can't click it - click but no result
[16:41] <xorred> no error no nothing
[16:41] <xorred> it's also set to autoconnect - still does not connect
[16:41] <xorred> same pptp connects fine with windows
[16:42] <ilumi> Kelytharun: this tut is pretty old so you might be able to find something newer/easier , try google
[16:44] <amichair> does Kate support RTL? how does one switch the text direction?
[16:45] <lpollio> ciao a tutti
[16:48] <Kelytharun> well, there are some, but all recommend only command line tools... so I guess I'll have to throw quickly together a simple Qt GUI with two file selectors... :D
[16:51] <daskreech> amichair: run the program with --reverse
[16:52] <daskreech> wftl: check in #kubuntu-devel ?
[16:52] <wftl> daskreech: Will do. Thanks.
[16:54] <amichair> daskreech: that reverses the interface, not the edited text
[16:58] <darkham> someone with  4.4RC1 ?
[17:00] <fire`lala> darkham: yeah
[17:04] <amichair> does Kate support RTL? how does one switch the text direction? (not the application interface, but the edited text direction)
[17:04] <darkham> fire`lala, oh, :)
[17:04] <darkham> what about kpackagekit ?
[17:06] <fire`lala> darkham: I don't use any kde frontend to apt
[17:07] <darkham> fire`lala, ok
[17:10] <ilumi> darkham: whats the problem
[17:11] <urthmover> simple question...how do I make the font smaller on the kdm login....it bothers me that my username and password is too big for the field
[17:11] <darkham> ilumi, i only want to now if somethig is changed in kpackagekit in the future 4.4
[17:13] <vtcorrea_> wich are the sound libs necessary for flashplugin on firefox
[17:14] <subito> tsimpson: kde4-config --version gives him "Qt: 4.5. KDE: 4.3.4 (KDE 4.3.4) kde4-config: 1.0"
[17:14] <ilumi> darkham: what version do you have
[17:15] <darkham> ilumi, i've kde 4.3.4
[17:15] <ilumi> darkham: version of the packagekit
[17:16] <subito> i have a friend who is trying to install kde 4.4 RC1, he added the kubuntu ppa in his sources.list then he did update and dist-upgrade but kde was not upgraded, and he still has Qt 4.5 and KDE 4.3.4; does someone have an idea? something to mention is that he has ubuntu and not kubuntu, and he installed kubuntu-desktop on top of ubuntu
[17:19] <dwidmann> Hmm, I've just noticed something bad for me ... I've got a dark color scheme and it seems openoffice is forcing black text in the file open/save dialogs :'(
[17:19] <ilumi> subito: it should show errors in the console
[17:20] <subito> ilumi: no, the upgrade was fine, it upgraded some packages, but kde was not upgraded
[17:21] <genii> subito: What says result of command: grep Prompt  /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades                  ?
[17:34] <shane2peru> ok, I need some help with this flash stuff, it is getting on my nervess
[17:35] <shane2peru> I purged all the usual places for the libflash...so file and then sudo aptitude reinstall flash-nonfreeplugin
[17:35] <shane2peru> I mean flashplugin-nonfree and it installs and I don't have flash.
[17:35] <shane2peru> any help would be appreciated.
[17:36] <daskreech> shane2peru: where don't you have flash?
[17:36] <shane2peru> firefox
[17:36] <shane2peru> I guess I should have mentioned that
[17:36] <shane2peru> I'm also using Ubuntu and then ran sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop for what it is worth (I'm working in KDE desktop)
[17:37] <daskreech> shane2peru: restarted firefox of course?
[17:37] <shane2peru> daskreech: right
[17:37] <darkham> i've a very funny issue, in my hp dv6-1350sl i can't use the phones
[17:37] <shane2peru> daskreech: I also run about:plugins in firefox, and it shows flash plugin, however youtube and any video site doesn't work
[17:48] <daskreech> shane2peru: Does it try to start the plugin?
[17:48] <daskreech> shane2peru: make a new profile in firefox
[17:48] <daskreech> darkham: headphones?
[17:49] <subito> genii: are you still there? the output is: "Prompt=normal"
[17:50] <philyaw> is there a cool program out there for kubuntu that will kill processes?
[17:51] <philyaw> and can someone tell me the command to get my process ids
[17:51] <philyaw> so I can use the kill function
[17:51] <philyaw> Amarok locks up all the time
[17:55] <darkham> daskreech, yes, the headphones
[17:55] <darkham> in win7 if i plug headphones , the speaker goes mute, and only headphones works
[17:56] <darkham> in kubuntu karmic, if i plug headphones, they are muted
[17:56] <darkham> and speakers are the only thing working
[18:00] <daskreech> darkham: Might be pulseaudio or phonon
[18:00] <genii> subito: Ok, thats fine then. Had a hunch it might be set to "never" , this stalled a box of mine before for upgrades when it seemed there was no other reason
[18:01] <daskreech> philyaw: press alt+ctrl+Esc and the mouse will turn into a skull. Click whatever you like and it dies
[18:01] <daskreech> philyaw: ctrl+Esc may also be useful for you
[18:01] <Peace-> darkham: that means bad alsa driver configuration
[18:01] <subito> genii: ok :( so what might be the problem?
[18:02] <daskreech> subito: what's apt-cache policy kdebase-workspace say?
[18:03] <darkham> Peace-, i relly think that phonon suck....
[18:03] <Peace-> darkham: nope
[18:03] <Peace-> darkham: that problems meand you have to edit alsa  conf....
[18:04] <darkham> i'll continue to try
[18:04] <genii> subito: Does something like: apt-cache policy kdelibs5 | grep Candidate                      show a later version available than what is currently installed?
[18:05] <subito> daskreech: http://pastebin.com/m1b38c955
[18:05] <subito> genii: Candidat : 4:4.3.4-0ubuntu1~karmic2
[18:09] <genii> subito: So then no. Is the sudo apt-get update command complaining of pubkey or so?
[18:11] <subito> genii: no :(
[18:11] <daskreech> Yeah seems that its not seeing the server at all was it added properly?
[18:11] <genii> subito: Can you pastebin the sources.list ?
[18:11] <subito> daskreech: genii: here is the output for dist-upgrade; so i think the deb server has been taken into account http://pastebin.com/m383d66ce
[18:17] <daskreech> subito: /etc/apt/sources.list would be useful
[18:18] <subito> genii: daskreech: well it seems now that it's working for my friend; he spotted the pubkey error and then added it and now it seems to work; but i don't know why he hadn't seen it before
[18:19] <daskreech> ?
[18:20] <daskreech> THat shouldn't stop it upgrading but whatever he changed grats
[18:20] <subito> we'll never know :(
[18:25] <_-osh-_> Kwin died with my last upgrade. Known issue?
[18:26] <_-osh-_> I had desktop effects enabled and now I can't turn them off. System settings also dies when trying to do that.
[18:26] <_-osh-_> Should I just delete fglrx from system and hope?
[18:28] <daskreech> _-osh-_: no I would rename kwinrc
[18:28] <aperson> all of my widgets stay put from session to session except my desktop widget.  Is anyone else experiencing this and/or know how to remedy this?
[18:28] <_-osh-_> kwinrc? hmm.I'll look at that.
[18:28] <_-osh-_> daskreech: just noticed thta fglrx wasn't installed.
[18:28] <_-osh-_> must have been lost during upgrade
[18:28] <_-osh-_> let's see if that makes any difference first.
[18:31] <frans> hi guys, how is life?
[18:32] <_-osh-_> daskreech: ha. wouldn't you know. installing fglrx did the trick.
[18:32] <_-osh-_> daskreech: odd that it got lost during upgrade though.
[18:32] <frans> my other ubuntu 9 pc screen just froze, i can ssh into it, how can i restart x ?
[18:33] <_-osh-_> frans: ctrl-alt-backspace
[18:33] <_-osh-_> frans: if on console
[18:34] <frans> _-osh-_: keyboard also dead, but i have ssh connection
[18:34] <daskreech> _-osh-_: not really :) it requires kernel stuff so it may have tried installing before that did then got dropped
[18:34] <_-osh-_> frans: killall X
[18:34] <_-osh-_> frans: or ps -eaf | grep X
[18:34] <daskreech> frans: sudo /etc/init.d/kdm restart
[18:34] <_-osh-_> frans: and then kill the pid that has X.
[18:35] <daskreech> frans: My way is faster :)
[18:35] <_-osh-_> frans: or listen to daskreech he helped me. =)
[18:35] <_-osh-_> daskreech: that's what I get for being an old unix-fart.... ;-)
[18:37] <frans> daskreech: kdm? it is running gnome
[18:37] <daskreech> frans: gdm then
[18:37] <daskreech> _-osh-_: Old UNIX stuff still works :)
[18:37] <daskreech> It's just time consuming at this point
[18:40] <jb0694> does anybody know where u can get updated help documentation for kubuntu 9.04.  the help docs in the operating system are out of date
[18:40] <frans> daskreech: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart didnt do anything, just mentions a better way
[18:40] <daskreech> frans: what does sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop say?
[18:41] <jb0694> preferably a pdf document that i can download and view offline
[18:41] <_-osh-_> daskreech: Thanks for your help. I'll add a few euros to KDE e.V. on your behalf next time I add money to my paypal account.
[18:42] <daskreech> Thanks :)
[18:42] <daskreech> jb0694: file a bug on lp
[18:42] <_-osh-_> daskreech: Comunity help me, I help comunity. =)
[18:42] <daskreech> and speak to nixternal. He will give you timelord suit
[18:43] <frans> daskreech: Rather than invoking init scripts through /etc/init.d, use the service(8)
[18:43] <frans> utility, e.g. service gdm stop
[18:43] <frans> Since the script you are attempting to invoke has been converted to an
[18:43] <frans> Upstart job, you may also use the stop(8) utility, e.g. stop gdm
[18:43] <FloodBotK3> frans: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[18:48] <tato42> how do i get rid of kde and just run gnome
[18:48] <daskreech> frans: ahh so ok sudo service gdm restart ?
[18:49] <daskreech> tato42: sudo apt-get remove kdelibs5 kubuntu-desktop && sudo apt-get autoremove
[18:49] <tato42> ok thanks i'll try that
[18:50] <genii> !puregnome
[18:50] <frans> daskreech: "restart: Unknown instance:"
[18:50] <daskreech> frans: stop then :(
[18:50] <daskreech> genii: Wrong thing to remove
[18:50]  * genii thinks about kdelibs4c2
[18:52] <daskreech> I could have sworn I changed that
[18:53] <jb0694> the kdu user guide that comes with kubuntu 9.04 was last revised in 2004.  is it worth it to even read this or have there been too many changes since then?
[18:53] <jb0694> *kde user guide that is
[18:54] <philyaw> Does anyone know how to figure out why my sound doesn't work within any web browser?
[18:54] <philyaw> Though it works elsewhere within Kubuntu
[18:56] <frans> daskreech: sudo kill -9 <X> did kill it, but howto restart?
[18:56] <daskreech> jb0694: probably outdated but not so much so that it's useless
[18:57] <daskreech> frans sudo service gdm start ?
[19:00] <frans> daskreech: "start: Job is already running: gdm" , well just stop/start, but with ps i see "/usr/bin/X :1", is that the real screen?
[19:04] <daskreech> frans: That's a new real screen
[19:05] <rigo> hi there. I'm having issues with the integrated microphone of my laptop. Can somebody help me please?
[19:12] <tzily> kubuntu is retarded
[19:12] <jb0694> how useful would a general, introductory book on ubuntu be if i'm trying to use it to understand kubuntu?
[19:14] <tzily> kubuntu is still retarded
[19:14] <daskreech> jb0694: Pretty good
[19:14] <daskreech> The main difference is KDE instead of Gnome
[19:14] <daskreech> Everything else works the same
[19:14] <tzily> how fucking stupid could you people be reading books on operating systems
[19:14] <ilumi> tzily: you have to be 5% smarter than your tools, to use it
[19:15] <Pici> !ohmy | tzily
[19:15] <ilumi> tzily: you are obviously not at that level
[19:15] <tsimpson> ilumi: please ignore them
[19:15] <tzily> who cares
[19:19] <djani> Hi! I installed Ubuntu 9.10 and now have problems with enabling KVM for my Radeon X1300. I created /etc/init.d/radeon.conf with line 'options radeon modeset=1' , then I did 'sudo update-initramfs -u -k all ' and rebooted, but now I stll can not enbable desktop effects
[19:19] <frans> I am trying small opengl programs, but they run very slow (100%cpu) or freeze X, any tips?
[19:19] <djani> Please help
[19:20] <ilumi> djani: did you put in the settings to enable composite?
[19:21] <djani> sorry, not KVM, I mean KMS. ilumi, I do not understand question
[19:22] <alzear> Hello all, I have a very annoying problem. When I start a browser (firefox or chrome) the cpu load goes upp about 50% and remains constant there. This ends up with the fan starting to go into high gear. Why is the browser consuming so much cpu load?
[19:23] <alzear> btw, I am running the latest firefox and chrome on kubuntu 9.10 :-)
[19:24] <ilumi> djani: maybe you need to add composite settings to your radeon config?
[19:25] <djani> how to do that?
[19:25] <frans> alzear: is it FF or X using cpu?
[19:26] <ilumi> djani: look at your xorg.conf composite settings,
[19:26] <ilumi> djani: maybe you just need to paste the composite enable line, but i'm not sure
[19:27] <djani> Is't KMS one thing to make all graphics work?
[19:28] <ilumi> djani: what is kms?
[19:29] <djani> kernel mode setting
[19:29] <ilumi> why do you mess with that?
[19:30] <djani> Because that is only way to get Radeon X1300 to work
[19:31] <ilumi> djani: the open source radeon driver supports it
[19:31] <claude> salut a tous !
[19:31] <djani> Yeah, supports it over KMS
[19:32] <djani> You mean xorg-radeonhd /
[19:32] <djani> ?
[19:32] <ilumi> yeah
[19:32] <claude> y a t il des francophones?
[19:33] <alzear> frans: firefox
[19:33] <djani> ilimi I instaled it, but no composite effects, now I am trying to play tuxracer
[19:34] <claude> belges suisses quebecois !
[19:34] <djani> Terible!! It is like 1 frame per two seconds
[19:38] <frans> alzear: try closing tabs untill little cpu, perhaps a plugin or javascript? what version, try newer firefox?
[19:39] <ilumi> djani: did you check your composite settings in xorg.conf?
[19:39] <alzear> frans: I have the latest firefox. I have tried to close tab-by-tab to identify what page it is, but I haven't been able to see a pattern yet. I just installed flash blocker to see if that helps...
[19:40] <alzear> frans: firefox 3.5.7
[19:40] <alzear> frans: Funny thing is, that I have the same behaviour in chrom
[19:40] <alzear> chrome
[19:41] <ilumi> alzear: run it from console and see if you get any errors
[19:43] <alzear> ilumi: smart! I will try that...
[19:46] <djani> ilumi: Here is xorg.conf http://pastebin.com/m65b1c7b
[19:51] <ilumi> djani: you are not using the radeon driver, you are using a vesa driver
[19:52] <djani> I noticed that now... how to correct it?
[19:54] <ilumi> do aptitude search radeonhd
[19:54] <ilumi> then install it as sudo
[19:57] <shane2peru> ok, how do I find out what my printer name is to be able to print with lpr?
[19:57] <ilumi> whats lpr?
[19:57] <shane2peru> ilumi: it is the command line for printing
[19:58] <ilumi> do you have gui??
[19:58] <shane2peru> ilumi: yes
[19:58] <ilumi> open any word processor go to print, your printer should be listed, aka printer name
[19:58] <shane2peru> before you say it, I wrote a script some time ago to print books, however it appears that lpr is not working corretly
[19:59] <shane2peru> ilumi: is that the same name I would use with lpr?
[19:59] <ilumi> i never used lpr , so i dont know
[19:59] <ilumi> you can also go to system settings printers
[19:59] <ilumi> and look there
[19:59] <shane2peru> yes, I tried changing/shorting it there, didnt' have much success.
[20:00] <ilumi> try lpr help, maybe you need to specify location?
[20:03] <shane2peru> ilumi: lpstat -a  shows all connected printers. :)  JFYI
[20:05] <djani> ilumi: I reinstalled radeonhd driver, but xorg.conf still says vesa
[20:05] <djani> and still no 3D
[20:05] <ilumi> djani: well , you will need to reconfigure xserver
[20:06] <djani> I think that old command for that does not work
[20:06] <ilumi> yeah, but i dont know what they use now
[20:07] <djani> Thanks for help
[20:07] <djani> Can you tell me how is corect old command, so I can google for nw
[20:07] <djani> new
[20:07] <ilumi> sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[20:08] <djani> thanks
[20:10] <shane2peru> djani: ilumi that is still the correct command at least for ATI stuff, I'm new to nvidia
[20:11] <ilumi> djani: if it works make sure you pick the right driver,
[20:11] <djani> shane2peru, no, it is not work
[20:11] <djani> Nothing happens
[20:11] <ilumi> djani: and you will still need to add composite settings to xorg.conf
[20:12] <shane2peru> djani: I think you need to be  out of x when you run it
[20:12] <djani> aha ok. killall gdm should work ?
[20:13] <shane2peru> djani: right, just make sure you are in a tty
[20:15] <djani> killall gdm does not work. What other can I use?
[20:15] <shane2peru> are you using gdm or kdm?
[20:15] <djani> gdm
[20:16] <djani> GNOME
[20:16] <shane2peru> hmm, should be gdm
[20:16] <shane2peru> were you root?
[20:16] <djani> I used sudo
[20:16] <djani> says no process found
[20:17] <shane2peru> try: sudo service gdm stop
[20:17] <mefisto__> sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[20:17] <shane2peru> mefisto__: same thing, they added the new service thing that does the same thing
[20:22] <djani> 'sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop' works, but 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg' definetly does not work
[20:22] <djani> I need to find that new comand
[20:23] <djani> But Google can not find it
[20:24] <djani> When I type 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg' (while X is down) nothing happens but 'echo $?' returns 0
[20:32] <shadeslayer> does plasma crash everytime you open a app in kde 4.4 RC?
[20:35] <shadeslayer> everything is slow as hell and i fell as if im back to the P3 age :P
[20:35] <ilumi> install puppy linux
[20:36] <shadeslayer> ilumi: lol... im sure its just the configs,messing everything up :P
[20:36] <shadeslayer> (i have a T8100,3GB ram,nVidia 8600MGT Dell XPS Laptop)
[20:37] <shadeslayer> brb..
[20:37] <ilumi> well puppy is fast
[20:38] <ilumi> linux is pretty slow overall
[20:38] <ilumi> especially kde
[20:39] <ilumi> unless you are just running a cli, then it's fast

[20:55] <ilumi> try #alsa
[20:57] <Izinucs> Is there an option someplace to adjust system sounds?
[20:59] <TheGamer81> I need help moving kubuntu to different hardware.
[20:59] <ilumi> what do you mean
[21:00] <Izinucs> TheGamer81: that should be easy.. either use clonezilla or partimage to mirror the partitions on a backup device.. then restore on the new device
[21:00] <TheGamer81> I am trying to move kubuntu from a Pentium 4 to AMD Sempron 2800+
[21:00] <paolopao> ilumi: I was searching something for audio programs
[21:01] <ilumi> paolopao: whats the problem
[21:01] <Izinucs> paolopao: what do you want to do.. play music, record something ??
[21:01] <TheGamer81> Hello? Nobuddy's going to help move lubuntu from intel to amd
[21:02] <Izinucs> TheGamer81: see my last post to you
[21:03] <paolopao> Izinucs: sound processing. but something better than audacity
[21:04] <Izinucs> paolopao: the medibuntu repos have some interesting audio tools including multitrack recorders for processing..
[21:05] <Izinucs> !medibuntu | paol
[21:06] <ilumi> paolopao: how advanced do you need it?
[21:07] <paolopao> ilumi: at least better than audacity

[21:39] <shadeslayer> anyone have the annoying problem of plasma crashing everytime you launch a app?
[21:39] <shadeslayer> KDE 4.4 RC1
[21:41] <aperson> there's a reason why those packages are for testing :)
[21:41] <shadeslayer> aperson: i know... but its strange...
[21:42] <shadeslayer> it didnt happen at all in beta :P
[21:42] <aperson> I've heard of at least 4 others who have had similar, myself including
[21:42] <shadeslayer> hehe :)
[21:43] <shadeslayer> aperson: atleast im not alone :P
[21:43] <jce0694> let me try this one last time:  is there any place where i can get up-to-date information on using the kde desktop environment.  i'm caught between a rock and a hard place here as there are many current books out on ubuntu (which uses gnome) and all the books on kubuntu are old (as well as the kubuntu 9.04 built in help which was last revised in 2004)... are there any documents where i can get current (at least a year old) informa
[21:43] <jce0694> tion on using the kde desktop?
[21:44] <renato_> ho, how do I install the kernel source for ubuntu server?
[21:46] <aperson> jce0694, what do you specifically want to know?  for general information I just search through blogs
[21:47] <renato_> I did that already, and all I could find is that is HIGHLY deprecated
[21:48] <aperson> renato_, that wasn't directed at you.
[21:48] <renato_> ok
[21:48] <aperson> !ubuntu-server > renato_
[21:48] <jce0694> thnx but i want a structured approach to learning linux kde instead of randomly stumbling around in the dark until I find what I'm looking for... it's a matter of efficiency... i'll learn much faster if there's a strutured approach to learning this
[21:49] <ilumi> jce0694: kde4 is still in heavy development , thats why there isnt much documentation on it yet
[21:49] <renato_> I saw it, I already know that. I need to change/recompile ftd:sio.c because of a bug with handling an usb smartmouse
[21:49] <ilumi> jce0694: because things change all the time
[21:50] <jce0694> the help documentation that comes with the OS is a major disappointment... it was last updated in 2004... i don't understand that... programmers spend all this time writing code (which is the hard part) but when it comes to documentation (the easy part) they just don't seem to care.... why?
[21:51] <aperson> jce0694, I"m sure youve seen: http://www.kde.org/announcements/4.0/guide.php
[21:51] <ilumi> see  answer above
[21:52] <jce0694> i mean there's alot of things that change... why can't the software developers change the documentation as they change the OS... seems simple enuf
[21:53] <happy_> jce0694: simple, not easy, fun, ect :-P
[21:57] <jce0694> aperson, no i haven't... that seems like an excellent guide. many thnx
[21:58] <aperson> fwiw: that was the first result for 'kde usage manual'
[21:58] <aperson> oh, second
[22:05] <jce0694> i'm confused... what's the difference between kde 4.3 and kubuntu 9.10?
[22:05] <kriss3d> well kde is how ubuntu shows itself to you
[22:05] <kriss3d> kubuntu is the linux distro which uses kde (not sure which version in 9.10 but i assume latest)
[22:06] <jce0694> so if i have kubuntu 9.10 then i have kde 4.3 installed?
[22:06] <kriss3d> i belive so yes.. though im not sure which version of kde is used in kubuntu 9.10
[22:07] <jce0694> ok... thnx
[22:08] <kriss3d> im using KDE 4.3.2
[22:08] <kriss3d> thats what my kde says..
[22:08] <kriss3d> rightclick the blue button.. click the edit menu or whatever its called in english
[22:08] <kriss3d> in the menu that opens you click the help button
[22:09] <kriss3d> and then about kde.. the version is showed in the top
[22:29] <PEPPINO> im download vlc-1.0.4.tar.bz2 and unzipped it. My question is: where i can find the list of libs requested inside the package?
[22:30] <Daughain> Thats why I prefer to use synaptics.
[22:46] <genii> PEPPINO: Usually if you do ./configure --help it tells you all the possible options
[22:47] <PEPPINO> genii: yes but not the list of the necessary libs... but proobably i worng
[22:47] <genii> !info vlc
[22:48] <genii> PEPPINO: There is something in 1.0.4 you require that 1.0.2 in repositories does not provide?
[22:49] <PEPPINO> genii: i had to compiled it because of teletext missing support
[22:51] <Daughain> Does tftp have issues with wndows?
[22:54] <Riddell> ** testers needed for amarok 2.2.2
[22:55] <afi___> riddell, ican test
[22:55] <aperson> Riddell, are there packages for it?
[22:56] <soee> Riddell: im already using it i think :)
[22:56] <Riddell> it's in this PPA https://edge.launchpad.net/~kubuntu-ppa/+archive/backports
[22:56] <Riddell> soee: from there?
[22:56] <soee> Riddell: i think so i have it in updates
[22:57] <Riddell> soee: working ok?
[22:57] <soee> Riddell: one thing i noticed when i cheked About in Amarok there is version 2.2.2 but im using KDE 4.4 RC1 and ther is info that im on 4.3.2 witch is wrong
[22:58] <thegatekeepercor> when i install nvidia driver i get in dmesg after x fails to init it
[22:58] <thegatekeepercor> allocation failed: out of vmalloc space
[22:58] <thegatekeepercor> any ideas how to fix?
[22:58] <Riddell> soee: I see that too in About Amarok, strange, About KDE gives the right info
[22:59] <soee> Riddell: same here
[23:00] <soee> Riddell: about visiual aspects, just a little think, wait a second :)
[23:00] <soee> *thing
[23:01] <draik> !printer
[23:06] <soee> Riddell: look at selected area http://yfrog.com/3uzrzutekranu13p - if u resize the center of the payer the letters are outside layout background :) just a detail but i like when all works and looks good
[23:07] <Riddell> soee: best report it to bugs.kde.org
[23:07] <soee> oks
[23:13] <PEPPINO> where i can fin minizip package for karmic?
[23:18] <draik> What happened to all of the deskjet PPD files for HP printers?
[23:20] <PEPPINO> where i can fin minizip package for karmic?
[23:21] <Riddell> aperson: did you test amarok?
[23:26] <draik> Were HP deskjets removed or were they relocated? I can't seem to find them anywhere.
[23:28] <Daughain> Dpes tftp work with windows?
[23:29] <Daughain> Or can I only use it on another linux box?
[23:30] <aperson> Riddell, using it now
[23:30] <Riddell> aperson: all good?
[23:30] <aperson> was rather miffed it reset my ui
[23:30] <aperson> but other than that, so far no issues
[23:35] <draik> Where can I find PPD files that I need?
[23:36] <taufik> hai
[23:39] <newbie123abc> hi all
[23:40] <newbie123abc> why kmix doesn't control HDMI output?
[23:40] <paulsomebody> I need help upgrading to KDE 4.4 RC. I have a lot of blocked updates — 69 against 90 that would be applied, but they are all from 'Kubuntu Beta Backports
[23:40] <paulsomebody> ' repository. Is this okay?
[23:41] <paulsomebody> Should I just don't mind that?
[23:43] <draik> !hp
[23:43] <draik> !printer
[23:47] <BluesKaj> paulsomebody, some advice for what it's worth if you run nvidia , kde 4.4 RC broke my graphics , have to use gnome/ubuntu desktop til the nvidia graphics probs are fixed
[23:48] <paulsomebody> What driver?
[23:48] <BluesKaj> there are some bugs files on launchpad
[23:48] <paulsomebody> What version I meant?
[23:49] <BluesKaj> I was using the glx-190.42
[23:49] <paulsomebody> I have the same.
[23:49] <paulsomebody> Probably without 'glx'.
[23:49] <paulsomebody> What card do you have?
[23:50] <BluesKaj> the 190.53 is current and it works with gnome , I can't get kde installed due to broken dependencies ... my card is the 7600gt
[23:50] <paulsomebody> Then I probably shouldn't risk.
[23:51] <BluesKaj> yeah , I think it's wiase to wait a week or 2
[23:51] <BluesKaj> err wise
[23:52] <PEPPINO> after compiling a package using make install..... can i remove the directory?
[23:54] <ilumi> make uninstall?
[23:54] <aperson> Riddell, amarok is getting my metadata wrong
[23:55] <aperson> PEPPINO, yes
[23:55] <PEPPINO> aperson: and sorry... how could I remove the pachage from the system?
[23:55] <aperson> though I recommend making packages instead of doing a plain old make install
[23:56] <aperson> what ilumi said, make uninstall, though you need the source for that
[23:57] <PEPPINO> aperson: I ì've tried just know to generate a deb package but unfortunately some errors exuisting
[23:57] <aperson> PEPPINO, how so?  with checkisntall?
[23:57] <paulsomebody> PEPPINO: Use 'checkinstall' or something like that.
