[00:59] with flexibility comes complication ;) [01:00] but grouping similar mime-types would be nice, yeah [01:00] the multimedia ones are [01:00] * APERSON just wants all of his videos to play in vlc by default [01:07] Okay, I have a question.. Did a fresh install of kubuntu 8.10, as thats the only disc i had on hand atm.... should I upgrade to 9.1 before or after I install the "lets watch youtube and DVDs" packages? [01:08] jeff__: shouldn't matter === jeff__ is now known as jeff5 [01:08] Okay, thanks [01:08] no prob, good luck [01:09] jeff5: 9.10 means 2009 October (tenth month hence .10) [01:09] do have one more question, me and a friend are gonna try to learn how to set up linux serves... does it matter if he uses a KDE 9.1 and I use a Gnome 9.1? [01:10] (we are both noobs) [01:10] but competent enough to know how to manuallly edit xorg.conf when nvida drivers fail [01:11] jeff5: For a server, you usually don't even want some desktop environment, only commandline [01:11] well, we would be doing a desktop to start with as again we are both noobs and live 550 miles apart :) [01:12] but assuming noobs, assuming desktop required.. would it be much of an issue to have one on gnome, one of KDE? [01:12] jeff5: Your difference of desktop environments like Gnome or KDE or XFCE or so on won't matter [01:12] ok. [01:13] would it matter if he was using a ubuntu knock of- like STudio edition, or mint? [01:13] hi [01:13] how do I downgrade from the PPA kde beta debs? [01:13] I want to go back to stock Karmic deb [01:13] !downgrade [01:13] KDE debs. [01:13] Attempting to downgrade to an older Ubuntu version is explicitly not supported, and may break your system. [01:13] not to an older version [01:13] jeff5: Not really [01:14] I have the PPA for the beta KDE in my apt sources list. [01:14] I want to move off of them. [01:14] many thanks genii, youve been a great help. [01:14] Roey: Comment them out then [01:14] yeha, I tried. [01:14] and then did apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade. [01:15] genii: and it didn't suggest to install the stock packages. [01:16] Roey: Because the ones you installed from PPA or so were later. so until the stock repos supercede those versions thats what you'll have [01:16] right, but I can still force the version to install. [01:16] unless you gather up stock debs and "sudo dpkg -i --force-downgrade *.deb" [01:16] genii: I just don't know how to specify that. [01:16] er dunno. [01:16] hola maco [01:16] wait! I know who can help! [01:16] * Roey calls on the power of dtchen [01:17] !cookie | maco [01:17] maco: Wow! You're such a great helper, you deserve a cookie! [01:17] you can downgrade with apt, but it's also not easy [01:17] ah. [01:17] you need to know the version of every one of the packages you want to downgrade to [01:18] there is no dtchen here! [01:18] the reason why I want to downgrade is because I have this annoying problem with plasma (the panel and desktop disappear, but the desktop effects still work) [01:18] see apt_preferences(5) [01:18] hola! [01:18] oh again with pinning [01:18] oh yes, I keep forgetting apt can do that [01:19] Roey: Yes, conceivably you could overwrite later versions with earlier versions by pinning, etc [01:19] ah. [01:19] it's voodoo to me, though. [01:19] (by giving stock repos higher priority, etc) [01:19] crimsun is the only one who has ever guided me through pinning [01:19] genii: ahh [01:19] !pinning [01:19] pinning is an advanced feature that APT can use to prefer particular packages over others. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PinningHowto [01:20] Although that link is dated [01:20] how can i get firefox's file download application associations to be correct? for example, right now, the default to open a tar file is /bin/tar, when it should be /usr/bin/ark [01:21] i can add /usr/bin/ark as an option, but /bin/tar can't be removed as an option and remains the default no matter what i do [01:21] oh, and amarok is also screwed up. [01:21] won't play music. [01:21] grrr everything here is now screwed up because I've installed the beta debs of kde and amarok [01:23] jschall: Edit -> Preferences -> Applications [01:32] can anyone tell me why when I use Linux Mint Kde 7 live disk that it stops after it goes thru 2 lines of start up and stops ... this is on dell 2650 laptop [01:33] !mint [01:33] There are some Ubuntu derivatives that we cannot provide support for due to repository and software changes. Please consult their websites for more information. Examples: gNewSense (support in #gnewsense), Linux Mint (see !mintsupport), LinuxMCE (support in #linuxmce), crunchbang (support in #crunchbang), BackTrack (support in #remote-exploit) [01:33] tsimpson: can't remove /bin/tar from the list of applications for tar files [01:33] tsimpson: and it says (default) next to it, can't change that either. [01:34] tsimpson: very very poorly designed interface for specifying applications === javier is now known as Toru [02:07] hello [02:49] Anyone interested in assisting me with my wireless Atheros (AR5001) card on an HP Pavilion 6000 with Kubuntu 9.10 on kernal 2.6.31-18? [02:51] I have read my forums and related topics relating to this issue, but have not found a working solution. Compat-wireless says it should actually be working for the card. Madwifi and ndiswrapper is a no-go... [03:01] does anyone know of a program that takes an audio file and can output a video generated from it (Kind of like those visualization plugins for audio players... but I want to make an ogv to upload to youtube) [03:13] ndiswrapper and even madwifi for Atheros is way out of date. [03:14] ath5k should work [03:15] ubottu: atheros [03:15] Wireless documentation, including how-to guides and troubleshooting information, can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs [03:15] kenny_kruger: ^ [03:16] here... sorry (pizza just got out) [03:16] that is what i read... that atheros should just work... [03:16] however, it is not the case [03:17] Hello, i've installed kde 4.4 but how can i know if im on it or not, i tried vercion on terminal but dont works whats the command for show the kde vercion [03:18] originally the hardware (wireless LED) wouldn't even illumunate. I read some forums which suggested it has been fixed, so i allowed pre-release packages and now the LED illuminates, but no wireless AP's (and mine should be one). [03:19] don't know the command, but should be able to click on Help and About KDE in any window -- i believe (correct me if i'm wrong) [03:19] kadko .. read previous [03:19] Ohh thats true im an i** tnx :) [03:23] jhutchins_lt: prior to allowing pre-releases, i had read something about the compat-wireless .. so i downloaded the package and manually installed it. This kinda worked .. i did see some networks but it wouldn't actually connect (and the network wasn't secure). I switched the front switch from on to off and back to on... then no networks are shown. This was followed by a restart of course (after first restarting the [03:23] network first). Then the hardware light no longer worked which it just was. After this, read forums and such which led me to try madwifi and ndis (which apparently are a bit OOD), .... and that led me here.. :) [03:34] kenny_kruger: I have a AR5212/AR5213 which is working fine under 2.6.26 with the ath5k driver. Read the fora on building your own kernel modules. [03:35] i am on 2.6.31-18 currently [03:36] I have had (wired) drivers that could send traffic just fine, but couldn't receive. [03:36] reading launchpad ubuntu Bug #461419, downloading the liveimage and follow the instructions to see if it fixed by their procedure. [03:37] sounds like a fun issue to have [03:38] Nice to have a lab where we could set up a sniffer and tell that was happening. [03:38] don't believe i've ever had trouble w/ the wired side [03:38] nice [03:38] Recent Realtec chipset that was suposedly covered by the next increment (r8489 iirc), but wasn't really. [03:43] o', that event w/ the wired connection was a recent one? [03:54] Yeah, past year. [03:55] One of the things that happens is that these chipsets get built into a LOT of different devices. The implementation is supposed to be software-agnostic, always the same, but it ain't necessarily so. [03:56] Same is true of video chipsets. [04:03] well, they aren't public with it, so they don't have to be worried about being ashamed if someone saw it - i take pride in what i do :) [04:11] hello? === jake_ is now known as jake__ === krutten is now known as krutten_away [04:28] hello [04:50] hello? === andy is now known as Guest40415 [05:06] alive here [05:07] Hello [05:12] which command line text editor comes close to kate (i mean syntax hilights etc)?

[11:31] So I just installed KDE4.3 on my Ubuntu desktop because I just wanted to give it another shot. [11:33] Now I installed the packages compiz and compizconfig-settings-manager, but nothing really works. I can use the settings manager, but it doesn't change anything. No effects applied etc. :/ Does anybody maybe have an idea how to fix this? [11:34] Animagladius: Does it have the necessary permissions? [11:34] Actually I'm not so sure about that. How can I check this? [11:36] Where is the configuration file for phonon? [11:38] Animagladius: go to systemsettings -> default applications -> window manager [11:40] "The new window manager could not be started. The standard window manager has been reset to KWin." [11:40] :\ hm [11:41] Looks like this permissions thing Autoscum was talking about [11:42] Animagladius: kdesudo command [11:42] To see if it will work under root :) [11:42] mmm, no that should have nothing to do with rights [11:42] Animagladius: did it give any other output? [11:43] No, Tm_T, just that. [11:44] Autoscum: Didn't work either. :( [11:44] What is compiz anyway? [11:44] :P [11:45] Animagladius: seems strange, what happens if you run "compiz --replace" in konsole? [11:45] I have to go -> [11:45] Well, thanks for your help anyway :3 [11:46] I'll be right back. [11:46] I need to apply the changes to some sound plugin... thing... o.O [11:46] lol [11:46] I hope I didn't accidentally everything. [11:46] Back in a minute. [11:48] I DID IT! [11:48] I have sound on YouTube! [11:48] * Autoscum cheers. [11:49] (The screen "flickered" and gave out this: http://nopaste.info/eb9bc9e61c.html ) [11:49] Autoscum: Huh? O.o [11:49] I have accidentily zoomed out a plasma desktop, how do I get it back to normal? [11:49] I didn't have sound on Flash, apparently. [11:49] So I followed this long guide on how to fix it. [11:49] Well, it worked. [11:49] ^_^ [11:49] Autoscum: Wouldn't have anything to do with Pulseaudio, would it? [11:50] Yup. [11:50] PulseAudio indeed. [11:50] Here's the guide -> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=789578 [11:50] Shame... would really like to see Pulseaudio "just work", but more people need to support it in more places first. [11:50] how to un-zoom a desktop, anyone? [11:50] And they won't support it until it just works. :/ [11:50] Anyway. [11:50] I came with a rather different problem. [11:50] Uh, the developed of PulseAudio says that that's happening only on Ubuntu [11:51] because the developers missed a few memos :P [11:51] But I say, excuses... [11:51] Haha [11:51] Yesterday, suspending to RAM worked on my Dell Inspiron Mini 10v flawlessly. Now, it's not working. [11:51] What would that be, the_madman? [11:51] Uh [11:51] Suspending to RAM? [11:51] I know that I've installed Miro in that time from the repositories, but don't see how that could affect it. [11:51] Never worked for me on Linux. [11:52] Autoscum: It's worked for me all the time. :/ [11:52] If you familiarize me with the concept of "suspension to RAM", I may be able to help you. :P [11:52] Well, it always used to work - even on nVidia cards - and this laptop has an Intel card, I think, using open-source drivers. [11:53] Autoscum: Putting the computer to sleep. [11:53] Suspension then. [11:53] Autoscum: Yeah. [11:53] What does it say? [11:53] Nothing. [11:54] It locks the screen as expected, but it just doesn't go to sleep. [11:55] Blarg. [11:55] Okay, then... [11:56] I installed Miro late yesterday evening, but I don't see how that could mess with suspend/resume. :/ [11:56] Now, if I can just remember how to set off suspension from the Konsole, making it dump information to a log file... [11:56] uhh, to "unzoom" a desktop one uses the mouse wheel with ctrl [11:56] Uninstalled it just now and all the stuff it depended on. [11:56] So, going to restart. [11:56] Be right back. [11:56] Usually a restart isn't necess.... [11:56] *sigh* [11:56] Alright then, he wants to do it the hard way. :P [11:57] markc: What are you referring to? [11:57] my desktop was suddenly zommed out and I had no idea how to get it back to normal [11:57] zoomed* [11:58] Well did you try your own method? :P === six is now known as six6 [11:58] Yeah, that's it. [11:59] Well, that sucks. [11:59] No dice. [12:00] So... [12:00] What's the Konsole command for suspension? [12:00] Dunno. [12:00] If you suspend it from Konsole, it will echo information [12:00] Had a look at `suspend`, but that doesn't do anything/. [12:00] No output or anything [12:01] anybody got problems with your WLAN? My WLAN stops working after a while. After a reboot its working again [12:01] Yeah. Suspend doesn't do anything lol [12:01] :\ [12:01] It even hung my konsole :D [12:01] You're not root. [12:02] sudo suspend [12:02] Ah. [12:02] Autoscum: might be usefuul -> http://www.brighthub.com/environment/green-computing/articles/9738.aspx [12:02] That's weird. [12:02] sudo complains that `suspend` isn't found. [12:03] Haha. [12:03] Probably. [12:03] Look at the article marck gave. [12:03] It could be useful :) [12:03] But a normal user can recognize it :/ [12:03] klaptop_acpi_helper --hibernate [12:03]
