| GinoMan | it's the ati driver | 01:05 |

| GinoMan | the problem is that I create the driver using "aptitude install fglrx-kernel-source" and it says that everything works fine and that everything installs | 01:09 |
| GinoMan | but when I run "lsmod | grep fglrx" I get nothing | 01:09 |

| xero | can someone tell me why operation is not permitable .. sudo chown xero:xero /media/storage | 01:25 |
| crimsun | xero: you probably want uid=, gid=, and/or umask= instead. | 01:26 |
| xero | its fat32 | 01:26 |
| crimsun | right, see above. | 01:27 |
| GinoMan_ | how do I set kdm as the default display manager? | 01:28 |
| xero | tryed that | 01:28 |
| GinoMan_ | ok | 01:28 |
| GinoMan_ | brb | 01:28 |
| GinoMan_ | oh... kwin crashed on bootup again | 01:29 |
| xero | they dont work and what shoulid i put after the = and do i type -o aswell? | 01:29 |
| xero | like sudo chown xero:xero /media/Storage -o uid= ???????????????? | 01:29 |
| xero | i someone culd help me with this it would be verry apreciated its a fat 32 drive so im not sure | 01:29 |
| xero | what command will make me read wright to it | 01:30 |
| xero | its a /dev/sda6 | 01:30 |
| xero | anyone know of a partition maniger for linux? kinda like partition magic? | 01:31 |
| xero | maby ill just make it a ext 4 filesystem instead | 01:31 |
| scunizi | xero: it's called "partitionmanager" .. | 01:31 |
| xero | thankyou | 01:31 |
| xero | sudo apt-get install partitionmanger? | 01:31 |
| scunizi | xero: will you be sharing this drive with a windows machine? | 01:31 |
| xero | yes | 01:31 |
| xero | prefreably | 01:31 |
| xero | thats why i made it fat 32 | 01:32 |
| scunizi | then don't make it ext4.. make it ext3 | 01:32 |
| xero | couldent pick nfts from the linux menu | 01:32 |
| scunizi | there are drivers for windows and ext3 | 01:32 |
| xero | ext 3 shows up in windows? | 01:32 |
| xero | aww ic ic | 01:32 |
| xero | ok | 01:32 |
| GinoMan_ | why don't people make ext4, xfs, jfs, etc drivers for windows? | 01:34 |
| GinoMan_ | I mean, if you have the source code for the linux driver, shouldn't it be a simple task of porting the driver to windows? | 01:34 |
| crimsun | xero: those are mount(8) options, not chown(1) options | 01:34 |
| scunizi | ext3 has been around for quite some time and the driver works but occationally has quirks. | 01:35 |
| xero | yeah i know | 01:35 |
| xero | i just want to be able to read wright to my fat 32 | 01:35 |
| xero | but it keeps saying i dont have permission | 01:35 |
| xero | when i try chown it | 01:35 |
| xero | so i wana format it with partition manager but partition manager wont let me do anything how i run it in administrator mode | 01:35 |
| xero | linux is confuseing sometimes :( | 01:36 |
| xero | i shoulodent have to change ownership when im on my admin account | 01:36 |
| crimsun | xero: you're approaching it from the wrong angle fundamentally. It isn't a chown(1) issue; it's a mount(8) issue. | 01:37 |
| xero | but its mounted | 01:37 |
| xero | and i used the mounting manager and took read only off | 01:37 |
| xero | and remounted it | 01:37 |
| xero | what could i be missing? | 01:37 |
| crimsun | what mount options were used? | 01:37 |
| daskreech | GinoMan_: They do | 01:38 |
| xero | i dunno lol just the ones that prevent me from reading and wrighting | 01:38 |
| xero | want me to pastebin a screenshot? | 01:38 |
| xero | of my editor? | 01:38 |

| K350 | daskreech: Aha, well I've KDE4...if it's not updated...... | 01:55 |
| GinoMan_ | it's a huge 81 mb file and it registers as a text file and then the text file is a shell script | 01:55 |
| daskreech | K350: Well yes :) that's why you have plasma. Do you have KDE 4.3 or 4.4 ? | 01:55 |
| daskreech | GinoMan_: It's a Binary file with a shell script headed | 01:56 |

| daskreech | what is setpwc ? | 01:59 |
| K350 | daskreech: I've KDE 4.3.2 Is 4.4 stable or beta? | 02:00 |

| daskreech | K350: Ahmm it's RC2 | 02:01 |
| daskreech | I don't know if you consider that stable or not | 02:01 |
| GinoMan_ | basically you get a laptop with a wireless card, equip it with a second card, then set up software on it that makes it a wireless server | 02:01 |
| daskreech | tcarter: setpwc from the command line doesnt start it? | 02:01 |
| GinoMan_ | you can do the same with a desktop with two wireless cards | 02:01 |
| dunga | GinoMan - you have confused me more. | 02:02 |
| GinoMan_ | hold on dunga | 02:02 |
| dunga | any special software if I went desktop solution | 02:02 |
| tcarter | daskreech: no unless i was in the wrong directory but i tried several. and i cant find it anywhere under the applications menu | 02:02 |
| K350 | daskreech: Well, thanks for helpling me finding the progressbar :-) | 02:02 |

| GinoMan_ | looks like that | 02:04 |
| daskreech | tcarter: Hold on | 02:05 |
| GinoMan_ | inside on the pages i cited, there's instructions on how to set up a portanet | 02:05 |
| GinoMan_ | it's a wireless router/webserver | 02:05 |
| tcarter | daskreech: ok thanks | 02:05 |
| GinoMan_ | you can make it so that it's wirlessly connected to your router, you're router is encrypted | 02:05 |
| GinoMan_ | and the portanet is unencrypted | 02:05 |
| GinoMan_ | the unencrypted portanet then serves up whatever you want | 02:06 |
| GinoMan_ | a limited internet | 02:06 |
| dunga | I Googled it up. Looks plasticky - if only to judge a book by its cover | 02:06 |
| GinoMan_ | or just certian services | 02:06 |
| GinoMan_ | etc | 02:06 |
| GinoMan_ | that it provides through the encrypted router | 02:06 |
| GinoMan_ | or care of | 02:06 |
| GinoMan_ | the encrypted router | 02:06 |
| GinoMan_ | your guests connect to it instead of directly to your router | 02:06 |

| tcarter | daskreech: thank you | 02:11 |
| GinoMan_ | it'd be nice if the ati package maker was more verbose | 02:11 |
| GinoMan_ | that would explain it | 02:12 |

| GinoMan_ | I was using ati driver 9-3 | 02:12 |

| private2 | Hi, I am stumped and the forums were not of help. I am running KDE3 on Kubuntu 9.04 (long story). When I went to update kdebase-runtime, adapt-updater had install errors and now I cannot get Firefox to start. "sudo apt-get -f install" and "sudo apt-get install kdebase-runtime" did not help. Do you have any suggestions for what I should do next? | 02:14 |
| daskreech | private2: Where did you get KDE3 From? | 02:14 |
| private2 | daskreech, I found the link on the Kubuntu wiki. The site is pearsoncomputing.net | 02:16 |
| daskreech | private2: ok right :) | 02:17 |
| private2 | daskreech: I have been using it for months and this is my first problem... | 02:17 |
| daskreech | I'm sure they would be happy to hear about that :) | 02:18 |

| private2 | daskreech: adapt-updater says "there was an error committing changes possibly there was a problem downloading some packages or the commit would break packages". | 02:21 |

| private2 | daskreech: "sudo apt-get --force-overwrite install kdebase-runtime"? | 02:33 |
| private2 | daskreech: I have never had to do that before. | 02:33 |
| daskreech | Yeah it's a kdesu kdesudo conflict | 02:33 |
| === aperson is now known as APERSON | ||
| private2 | daskreech: "sudo apt-get --force-yes install kdebase-runtime" had same error as before and "--force-overwrite" did not exist. | 02:38 |
| crimsun | those are only options for dpkg, not apt-get. | 02:39 |
| daskreech | yeah that ^^ | 02:40 |
| daskreech | it's dpkg -i --force-overwrite | 02:41 |
| private2 | daskreech: "dpkg -i --force-overwrite kdebase-runtime" errors with "cannot access archive no such file or directory" | 02:44 |
| crimsun | you need the full path to the deb file | 02:44 |
| private2 | Yup and got errors of "dependency problems prevent configuration of kdebase-runtime" and "package kdebase-runtime-bin-kde4 is not configured yet". | 02:48 |
| crimsun | so now use apt-get -f install | 02:54 |
| private2 | I think that did it. Thank You VERY much :) | 02:56 |

| daskreech | The what? | 05:29 |
| Martijn81 | hehe, lol, they a sailing game too there | 05:32 |
| Martijn81 | which should be for what i was looking for | 05:32 |
| Martijn81 | but it does not load, unfornately | 05:33 |
| daskreech | Still not following but I hope you fix it :) | 05:55 |
| tony__ | anyone know where exactly in firefox it calls to the OS (linux specifically) to use a certain widget? reason being my widgets are messed up in kde 4.4 using firefox portable | 06:08 |
| daskreech | tony__: Looked ok in KDE 4,3 ? | 06:11 |
| tony__ | idk, new to kde and linux | 06:12 |
| tony__ | sorta | 06:12 |
| tony__ | it looks ok in the installed firefox, just not portable | 06:12 |
| daskreech | Ah probably qtcurve | 06:15 |
| tony__ | yeah, have it installed | 06:16 |
| daskreech | portable probably just doesn't know it's there | 06:16 |
| tony__ | reason being is it's easier atm than encrypting home partition | 06:16 |
| tony__ | so portable on encrypted file works better atm | 06:17 |
| tony__ | i know, just wondering where in ff's code would it be to call the widget image | 06:17 |
| tony__ | i know the least bit about programming but may be of use to someone else also | 06:18 |
| tony__ | idk why apps like to install all over the place in linux and windows | 06:18 |
| tony__ | i'm afraid my passwords and stuff will be not be secure since they're stored in unencrypted files or folders, right? | 06:19 |
| daskreech | tony__: Well if you can get on irc.mozilla.org then #firefox there would be quite helpful with the portable issue | 06:21 |
| tony__ | yeah, tried though. need to register. don't know how | 06:21 |
| daskreech | tony__: I don't know of apps that install all over the place | 06:21 |
| tony__ | firefox does. it's got files in home, /usr/share /usr/lib, etc | 06:22 |
| tony__ | is it generally safe to use firefox to store passwords? | 06:23 |
| ilumi | what do you mean safe? | 06:26 |
| owen1 | Anyone with Dell mini 10 or Inspiron 11Z - please confirm the touchpad bug I just sumbitted - https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-input-synaptics/+bug/512192 | 06:27 |
| ilumi | i confirm | 06:27 |
| ilumi | i had problems with it on my laptop | 06:28 |
| ilumi | lenovo | 06:28 |
| daskreech | tony__: it keeps it's files in ~ by default. For a portable config you can keep them on the encrypted Stick | 06:28 |
| ilumi | however it wasnt e sensitivity issue | 06:29 |
| ilumi | other problems | 06:29 |
| alokito | where can I set the shortcut for window opacity? I forgot :( | 06:30 |
| daskreech | Global Shortcuts? | 06:30 |
| alokito | daskreech, where in globar shortcuts? | 06:31 |
| alokito | Kwin? | 06:31 |
| alokito | global* | 06:31 |
| alokito | hello? | 06:33 |
| tony__ | btw, i'm amazed at how far kde's come. i'm watching movies on boxee, kdelirc setup so easy, and my desktop looks awesome | 06:34 |
| tony__ | thanks to any kubuntu and kde devs, if you're in here | 06:34 |
| tony__ | looks better than windows 7 i was using and i'm very picky about aesthetics | 06:35 |
| * alokito *still* can't find the opacity settings anywhere | 06:36 | |
| * alokito is upset | 06:36 | |
| tony__ | opacity for what? | 06:36 |
| alokito | ouch I've forgotten google :| | 06:36 |
| tony__ | system settings, appearance | 06:36 |
| alokito | tony__, windows | 06:36 |
| tony__ | or right-click desktop | 06:36 |
| Duskao | anyone else running an Ati gpu? perhaps a 4850? What driver do you find is the most stable? | 06:37 |
| alokito | hmm | 06:37 |
| tony__ | alokito, system settings, desktop | 06:37 |
| tony__ | then advanced | 06:37 |
| alokito | ok, checking :) | 06:38 |
| tony__ | then translucency. is that what you're looking for? | 06:38 |
| alokito | google can find that anyway, wonder how I forgot google :P | 06:38 |
| alokito | umm there's no translucency in there @ tony__ | 06:39 |
| alokito | :-/ | 06:40 |
| tony__ | it is in mine using kde 4.4rc2 | 06:40 |
| alokito | I'm in Lucid A1 KDE SC 4.4 RC1... btw :) | 06:40 |
| alokito | hmm | 06:40 |
| tony__ | in 4.3 i think it was in right-clicking the desktop | 06:40 |
| alokito | in lucid a2? | 06:40 |
| alokito | sorry it's a2, not a1 | 06:40 |
| === Presnus is now known as PreShower | ||
| alokito | no I'm 4.4 | 06:41 |
| tony__ | maybe your card can't perform translucency, idk | 06:41 |
| alokito | no I can use all effects | 06:41 |
| alokito | well, I'm looking for manual opacity control | 06:41 |
| alokito | window* opacity | 06:42 |
| alokito | and I did have this feature in karmic but forgot where it was | 06:42 |
| tony__ | i don't see it, only seen an option for "translucency" | 06:42 |
| daskreech | Alt+F3 ? | 06:42 |
| tony__ | then again, i'm not much help. i haven't used kde in ages | 06:43 |
| alokito | daskreech, yup, thanks... but where can I set a keyboard shortcut? | 06:43 |
| tony__ | since when did kde catch up with win7? i'm surprised the progress | 06:43 |
| alokito | i.e. I want to control transparency with Alt+MouseScroll | 06:44 |
| alokito | tony__, kwin+compiz had those effects long before win-dows | 06:44 |
| daskreech | tony__: I think you should be surprised the Windows 7 caught up with KDE | 06:44 |
| * alokito agrees with daskreech | 06:45 | |
| * alokito boos MS | 06:45 | |
| daskreech | No need for that :) | 06:46 |
| tony__ | yeah but windows 7 was stable with those effects | 06:46 |
| alokito | :P | 06:46 |
| tony__ | kde 4 seems very stable and very usable unlike the last time i tried with 4.1 | 06:46 |
| alokito | windows, stable? | 06:47 |
| alokito | they can't even make a virus free kernel or fragment free FS! | 06:47 |
| tony__ | yeah, generally moreso than linux, imo | 06:47 |
| daskreech | I'm sure they could but then why would you buy the next one? | 06:47 |
| tony__ | linux fragments and can get viruses, just wait until 50% userbase, if it ever happens | 06:47 |
| daskreech | tony__: 4.1 was a intital release. Sort of like Windows Vista | 06:48 |
| daskreech | !virus | 06:48 |
| ubottu | A/V software is available, however read this to understand why Linux does not have a virus problem: http://librenix.com/?inode=21 | 06:48 |
| tony__ | vista was better, very stable. just a system hog | 06:48 |
| daskreech | Really? | 06:48 |
| daskreech | Hmm I crashed it the first day I got it | 06:48 |
| alokito | tony__, virus attack is impossible *without* the user's own will in the sudo/root system | 06:48 |
| daskreech | It blamed Firefox | 06:48 |
| tony__ | i started jdownloader lastnight for the first time and it crashed my whole system, a java app. not very good | 06:49 |
| daskreech | in any case all of this is offtopic | 06:49 |
| daskreech | !ot | 06:49 |
| ubottu | #kubuntu is the official Kubuntu support channel, for all Kubuntu-related support questions. Please use #kubuntu-offtopic for general chatter. Thanks! | 06:49 |
| tony__ | alokito, impossible in the loosest sense of the word | 06:49 |
| tony__ | ok, back on topic | 06:49 |
| alokito | hmm yes | 06:49 |
| alokito | we should talk about this in offtopic channel | 06:50 |
| tony__ | but i'm using rc software. seems surprisingly stable | 06:50 |
| tony__ | i have no need to flame other os's, just got off topic | 06:50 |
| tony__ | all are very good in some ways | 06:50 |
| daskreech | Indeed | 06:51 |
| tony__ | hearts's with linux | 06:51 |
| daskreech | Granted there is only about three at this point in time | 06:51 |
| daskreech | Windows, Unix Flavours and Symbian | 06:51 |
| tony__ | OSX. it's far removed from unix | 06:52 |
| alokito | tony__, to point out the faults of an OS isn't flaming | 06:52 |
| daskreech | No | 06:52 |
| daskreech | It's very UNIX | 06:52 |
| daskreech | it just doesn't use X | 06:52 |
| daskreech | Which is perfectly valid in a UNIX mindset | 06:53 |
| tony__ | come to think about it, i've had them all on my pc. even symbian through a java emulator | 06:53 |
| alokito | and yes it truly is impossible to get a automated virus attack if you know what sudo/root account is for | 06:53 |
| alokito | I've used symbian in Vbox | 06:54 |
| daskreech | alokito: it's not impoossible since alot of stuff is left automated | 06:54 |
| alokito | oh it's google android, not symbian | 06:54 |
| alokito | sorry | 06:54 |
| daskreech | However it's suprememly unlikely to have a virus "problem" | 06:54 |
| alokito | daskreech, like? | 06:54 |
| daskreech | Either widespread or in a particular instance | 06:55 |
| daskreech | alokito: like someone having a cron job running things from his ~/bin dir | 06:55 |
| alokito | no I mean where's the leak for an automated attack? | 06:55 |
| daskreech | or from the cron-daily dir | 06:55 |
| daskreech | There are a few vectors but they are all reliant on both a silly user and blind chance | 06:56 |
| alokito | hmm I've never faced any in 3 years of Linuxing | 06:56 |
| daskreech | They may infect 15 or so people worldwide which for most cases isn't worth the effort | 06:57 |
| daskreech | and certiainly won't be a "problem" except for those people who will wise up pretty quick | 06:57 |
| alokito | It's never recommended to install softs aside from a trusted repo... thus if you get affected, it's your own fault | 06:58 |
| daskreech | Unless you are in a highly automated heterogenous work environment you will likely hear someone caught a virus and wander over to take a look, laugh then go on working since you probably won't get affected | 06:58 |
| tony__ | anyone have back mouse button working in dolphin? should it work by default? | 06:58 |
| tony__ | would be nice to have | 06:58 |
| alokito | kde now supports touchpad B-) | 06:59 |
| daskreech | Windows problem is if anyone catches it then you probably will to. Linux and UNIX setups are the opposite it's quite unlikely your machine is like anyone elses | 06:59 |
| daskreech | Hooray Qt and Nokia | 06:59 |
| alokito | (though I don't have any idea how to use those on a desktop) | 06:59 |
| alokito | daskreech, the (kubuntu)OT channel is all silent, the official(this) channel is not much active either... so please don't mind if we are not always using it for support related discussions :P | 07:04 |
| === PreShower is now known as Presnus | ||
| daskreech | i know it just has to be said :) | 07:05 |
| alokito | hehe okay :) | 07:06 |
| tony__ | just to let anyone know, i found an easy way to use mouse gestures in dolphin and about all browsers at kdeapps | 07:12 |
| daskreech | Nice blog it | 07:13 |
| tony__ | i have no blog. have nothing important to really say, lol | 07:14 |
| daskreech | Ahwell that would have a further reach than the few people here listening :) | 07:15 |
| alokito | all my blogs are in my native lang.(bangla) | 07:17 |
| alokito | don't have any in English :( | 07:17 |
| tony__ | bangla? bangladesh? | 07:18 |
| alokito | yup! | 07:18 |
| alokito | tony__, where are you from? | 07:20 |
| tony__ | mid-usa | 07:21 |
| alokito | ok | 07:22 |
| alokito | you should try the mouse themes in kde-look.org | 07:23 |
| alokito | I don't like the default theme so I installed some | 07:23 |
| tony__ | yeah, hope it's warmer where you're at. getting sick of winter | 07:23 |
| alokito | they look cool B-) | 07:24 |
| tony__ | it's not bad. most are kind of tacky | 07:24 |
| alokito | yah, winter is fading away | 07:24 |
| alokito | rain is my favorite season | 07:24 |
| tony__ | rain is a season there? here's it's just an instance | 07:25 |
| tony__ | i used to like rain but doing construction work, i hate working out in the mud | 07:25 |
| alokito | yup it's our speciality! | 07:25 |
| alokito | people here love to play soccer on Mud :D | 07:26 |
| tony__ | you mean football? i though us americans were the only ones who say soccer | 07:27 |
| alokito | yup, footbal | 07:27 |
| alokito | football* | 07:27 |
| alokito | there are 2 variations of football I think | 07:27 |
| alokito | 1 is like rugby(american football) and the other is genuine football | 07:27 |
| alokito | FIFA | 07:28 |
| alokito | so, soccer is more specific... | 07:29 |
| tony__ | gotcha | 07:30 |
| alokito | :) | 07:30 |
| tony__ | seems soccer is a least fav sport here. i always liked it though | 07:30 |
| alokito | cricket and football are my fav sports | 07:30 |
| alokito | and chess and carrom in board games | 07:31 |
| tony__ | don't play any sports here or board games. mostly just video games. lazy, i know | 07:34 |
| tony__ | i get enough physical labor at work anyhow | 07:34 |
| alokito | yup I also play PC Games | 07:35 |
| tony__ | then again, i'm approaching 30. getting too old to be banging my body around | 07:35 |
| alokito | hmm | 07:35 |
| alokito | I'm 19 | 07:35 |
| alokito | brb I gotta take a shower | 07:36 |
| tony__ | i play pc games some, though since i'm on kde, i guess steam and other games aren't much good | 07:36 |
| tony__ | later | 07:36 |
| alokito | tony__, there are lots of good games in http://playdeb.net | 07:37 |
| alokito | you should try some :) | 07:37 |

| Tm_T | !repositories | 09:21 |
| ubottu | The packages in Kubuntu are divided into various sections. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Kubuntu - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecommendedSources for the recommended way to set up your repositories | 09:21 |
| Tm_T | rethus: I think security and updates are on by default | 09:21 |
| Tm_T | !worksforme | alokito | 09:21 |
| ubottu | alokito: Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should (and especially recommend to others). Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability. Please see http://geekosophical.net/random/worksforme/ | 09:21 |

| sandhya | alokito: That's useful. Thanks. The issue is that I can't hear the console beep / system bell. | 09:29 |

| sandhya | and controllable separately | 09:30 |
| alokito | rethus, there should be a kde 4.4 repo for karmic, but it might not be stable | 09:30 |
| rethus | so i didn't need it... ui cant take me over to use beta ;) don't try it anyway | 09:31 |
| rethus | :D | 09:31 |
| alokito | ok :) | 09:32 |
| alokito | then you should be happy with the KDE 4.3 in your karmic repo | 09:32 |
| alokito | if you need something better you have to join the bleeding edge :P | 09:33 |
| rethus | 4.3 is ok. but i try now 4.3.4 thats should have some new features infront of 4.3.2 | 09:33 |
| rethus | no thanks | 09:34 |
| alokito | hmm that's cutting edge :) | 09:34 |
| rethus | 114 new packages :D | 09:35 |
| alokito | in backport? | 09:35 |
| rethus | yes | 09:37 |
| rethus | now i have 4.3.2 and in backport are 114 new package for me | 09:38 |
| rethus | so thats "living on the edge"-enough for me ;) | 09:38 |
| jussi01 | rethus: its just the update to a new release - it usually updates most packages - ie. 4.3.2 -> 4.3.4 | 09:39 |

| Paddy_NI | Hello not sure if I am in the correct place but I am trying to use network-manager-gnome in kde 4 would anyone know of a guide for doing this? | 10:23 |
| Sungod123 | hello, i need help regarding intsallation | 10:23 |
| Sungod123 | i burned the kubuntu 64 bnit image on a cd,i boot from cd everything works fine, i see kubuntu flash screen when i click "install kubuntu" but after that i only see a black menu and theres a text marker which keeps splashing | 10:24 |
| Sungod123 | and it wont go any further | 10:24 |
| Sungod123 | i'ms new to linux, if anyone could help? | 10:24 |
| Paddy_NI | Sungod123, sounds to me like the x server is crashing | 10:25 |
| Sungod123 | no idea what that is Paddy_NI, and how do i fix it | 10:25 |
| Paddy_NI | Sungod123, have you tried just selecting install when you boot the cd | 10:25 |
| Sungod123 | yes | 10:25 |
| Sungod123 | many times | 10:25 |
| Paddy_NI | Sungod123, X is responsible for the graphical display | 10:25 |
| Sungod123 | i tried install without changes to computer, or check cd for effects | 10:25 |
| Sungod123 | same thing happens on all | 10:25 |
| Sungod123 | defects* | 10:25 |
| Paddy_NI | hmm.. could be your hardware | 10:25 |
| Sungod123 | i'm using a dell laptop | 10:26 |
| Paddy_NI | what gfx card are you using? | 10:26 |
| Sungod123 | i also have a 32 bit ubuntu cd | 10:26 |
| Sungod123 | which works fine | 10:26 |
| Sungod123 | ATI | 10:26 |
| Paddy_NI | which? | 10:26 |
| Sungod123 | let me check | 10:26 |
| Sungod123 | one sec | 10:26 |
| Paddy_NI | Sungod123, also if ubuntu 32 bit installs correctly then you theoretically should be able to install 32 bit kubuntu | 10:27 |
| Sungod123 | ATI mobility HD 4570 | 10:27 |
| Paddy_NI | Okay just a moment | 10:27 |
| Sungod123 | i assumed Paddy_NI, first i thought i'm burning the image wrong, burnt again 2 times, same problem :( | 10:27 |
| Sungod123 | and yes i have 32 bit cd, shipped from ubuntu, but i wanted KDE desktop and 64 bit to utilise my RAM completely | 10:28 |
| Sungod123 | so i downloaded the 64 bit kubuntu | 10:29 |
| Sungod123 | torrented* | 10:29 |
| Paddy_NI | Sungod123, Is your laptop a Dell Studio 15? | 10:29 |
| Sungod123 | yes sir | 10:29 |
| Sungod123 | 1555 | 10:29 |
| Paddy_NI | Have you read this http://www.linlap.com/wiki/dell+studio+15 | 10:29 |
| Sungod123 | nope, i will now Paddy_NI, can you hold on | 10:29 |
| Paddy_NI | Yeah sure I am of to make some tea | 10:30 |
| === Guest34402 is now known as orion76 | ||
| Sungod123 | Paddy_NI: it tells me everything should be working fine :/ | 10:31 |
| Sungod123 | i dont see any compatibility issues listed there | 10:31 |
| Paddy_NI | Sungod123, oh it seems he was not using 64 bit | 10:31 |
| Sungod123 | ah, does that make difference? | 10:32 |
| === sergio_ is now known as DESLIGA | ||
| Sungod123 | and now where do go from here? is there any possible solution to this for a newbie like me | 10:32 |
| Paddy_NI | I am reading | 10:34 |
| Sungod123 | thanks a lot for trying | 10:34 |
| Sungod123 | in meantime, ill sit tight | 10:34 |
| Paddy_NI | Sungod123, are you sure its an ati card? | 10:35 |
| Paddy_NI | seems to be intel | 10:35 |
| Sungod123 | yes Paddy_NI, i'm on windblows7, and used dxdiag | 10:35 |
| Paddy_NI | ah | 10:35 |
| Sungod123 | is there possiblity of me burning the image wrong | 10:36 |
| Sungod123 | any way to check that? or if that was the case it wouldnt start at all | 10:36 |
| Paddy_NI | It appears the laptop's built in display is incompatible with Intel graphics driver. According to the last couple of posts on that site | 10:36 |
| Paddy_NI | hmm.. sec | 10:36 |
| Sungod123 | because from my past experience normal ubuntu has been alright, although it got corrupted after some time fo no reason, so i thought ill try kubuntu 64 bit now | 10:37 |
| Paddy_NI | Sungod123, just found this http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-laptop-and-netbook-25/ati-mobility-radeon-hd-4570-on-kubuntu-9.10-64-bit-765615/ | 10:38 |
| Sungod123 | i'm also seeing a console like thing Paddy_NI | 10:40 |
| Sungod123 | after the basic kubuntu logo and splash screen | 10:41 |
| Paddy_NI | yes I know | 10:41 |
| Sungod123 | but i dont see his problem resolved | 10:41 |
| Sungod123 | :( | 10:41 |
| Paddy_NI | last post | 10:41 |
| Sungod123 | what's wrong, and how to fix | 10:41 |
| Sungod123 | well i only have 1 graphic card i think | 10:41 |
| Sungod123 | and its dedicated | 10:41 |
| Sungod123 | Paddy_NI: his desktop effects were'nt working, for me it wont even start or do anything at all :/ | 10:45 |

| jaison | i dont like ubuntu 9.0 | 15:20 |
| rmrfslash | we all have our doubts | 15:20 |
| rmrfslash | hahahah | 15:20 |
| jaison | i was using | 15:20 |
| rmrfslash | i just upgraded, it's a bit better than 9.04 | 15:20 |
| jaison | ubuntu 8 | 15:20 |
| jaison | it was good | 15:20 |
| jaison | except for the video chat | 15:20 |
| jaison | so i once installed | 15:20 |
| jaison | ubuntu 9 | 15:20 |
| rmrfslash | you're on the "K"ubuntu channel, you know that right? | 15:20 |
| jaison | yes | 15:21 |
| FloodBotK2 | jaison: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 15:21 |
| rmrfslash | so I assume when you say ubuntu you mean kubuntu | 15:21 |
| jaison | yes | 15:21 |
| rmrfslash | in essence ubuntu is Debian + GTK while Kubuntu is Debian + KDE | 15:21 |
| rmrfslash | ok | 15:21 |
| rmrfslash | what video chat? | 15:22 |
| rmrfslash | Skype? | 15:22 |
| rmrfslash | Empathy? | 15:22 |
| jaison | in pidgin | 15:22 |
| rmrfslash | pidgin has video? | 15:22 |
| jaison | in ubuntu 9 it has video | 15:22 |
| rmrfslash | hmm | 15:22 |
| rmrfslash | I see | 15:22 |
| jaison | so i changed to ubuntu 9 once | 15:22 |
| rmrfslash | This was a huge missing feature in old pidgin | 15:22 |
| jaison | yes i know | 15:23 |
| rmrfslash | anyways... so you're using Pidgin w/ video | 15:23 |
| rmrfslash | in Kubuntu 8.10 | 15:23 |
| jaison | can i?? | 15:23 |
| rmrfslash | and when you upgraded to 9.10........... | 15:23 |
| jaison | i dont think so | 15:23 |
| rmrfslash | I dunno, did you try? | 15:23 |
| jaison | no | 15:23 |
| rmrfslash | apt-get install pidgin? | 15:23 |
| jaison | i have pidgin | 15:23 |
| jaison | video doesnt work | 15:24 |
| rmrfslash | I don't use pidgin, I can't help you | 15:24 |
| rmrfslash | I use (if I'm to use a standalone IM client) Empathy | 15:24 |
| rmrfslash | it's considered by several to be the Pidgin killer | 15:24 |
| rmrfslash | don't know how true that is | 15:24 |
| rmrfslash | but it seems to work | 15:25 |

| blueyed | https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kdeutils/+bug/447929 | 19:12 |
| user_ | blueyed: I just tried | 19:16 |
| user_ | could not enter as I have no account, but so far it worked as should | 19:16 |
| blueyed | user_: thanks. So when clicking Ok, you got an error page and the dialog closed? Are you using Karmic? | 19:17 |
| user_ | yes | 19:17 |
| user_ | karmic | 19:17 |
| blueyed | user_: then it's an odd bug.. happened with karmic for me, too. Have you setup kwalletmanager? (i.e. passwords in the KDE Wallet) | 19:18 |
| user_ | the original dialgo closes it says authentication failed and asks if I want to try again or cancel | 19:18 |
| user_ | cancle brings error page | 19:18 |
| user_ | yes I have | 19:18 |
| blueyed | ok. Can you leave a comment on the bug please, if you have a LP.net account? | 19:18 |
| user_ | no account sorry | 19:18 |
| user_ | maybe I get one later | 19:18 |
| blueyed | Odd. But thanks! Now I know that it's something obscure at least. | 19:19 |
| blueyed | I can provide your info there, no prob. | 19:19 |
| user_ | ok | 19:19 |
| blueyed | But a LP.net account does not hurt.. ;) | 19:19 |
| blueyed | Thanks again and enjoy your (better working) Kubuntu.. ;) | 19:19 |
| user_ | maybe just reinstall kwallet | 19:19 |
| user_ | mine is bugging me as it lets me not read my mails | 19:19 |
| blueyed | in what regard? | 19:20 |
| user_ | it tells me I gave wrong decryption pw though it didn't even ask me for a pw | 19:20 |
| user_ | gpg with pinentry-qt4 for example in kmail | 19:20 |
| blueyed | so then pinentry window does not pop up? This has nothing to do with kwallet AFAIK (at least I get the pinentry dialog, but nothing about my kdewallet) | 19:21 |
| user_ | i never said it had to do with kwallet. | 19:21 |
| user_ | no no window even popping up | 19:21 |
| illunatic | hey guys i used putty on windows the shell into a remote freebsd machine and run irssi. what should i use for this on kubuntu? | 19:27 |
| illunatic | i have putty now, but it's not as good. | 19:27 |
| blueyed | user_: so the window is pinentry window is popping up actually? | 19:28 |
| blueyed | illunatic: just use "ssh" in "konsole". | 19:28 |
| illunatic | alright thanks | 19:28 |
| blueyed | putty is a workaround for windows, but not required on Linux really. | 19:29 |
| foormea | hi | 19:29 |
| avi_ | hi, would Kubuntu run better on a 1.5Ghz 1.5GB Ram 2005 PowerBook G4 than Ubuntu? | 19:29 |
| foormea | i'm using kubuntu on an eeepc 1201n that has ION chipset. i have no sound when playing a movie with vlc or mplayer, but i have sound when using dragon player. apparently it's related to pulseaudio, as i get this error message with mplayer: AO: [pulse] Init failed: Connection refused | 19:29 |
| avi_ | Or should there not be a different? | 19:29 |
| foormea | in system settings/multimedia, i see the following 'devices': hda nvidia (alc269 analog) ; hda nvidia, nvidia hdmi (hdmi audio output) ; pulseaudio | 19:29 |
| foormea | when trying the sound on pulseaudio, i get a message that says that pulseaudio doesn't work | 19:29 |
| illunatic | success >_< | 19:30 |
| foormea | and "mplayer -ao alsa <whatever file>" doesn't play any sound | 19:30 |
| illunatic | thanks again haha | 19:30 |
| illunatic | i had the wrong ip addy before lol | 19:30 |
| avi_ | Is there any real danger in disabling a thermal module, or should the lower-level systems manage on their own? | 19:30 |
| eitreach | I need some assistance with adding my external drive to fstab. | 19:35 |
| user_ | blueyed: no, nothing popping up, just telling me wrong pw | 19:35 |
| xrandr | ok, i am using kubuntu 9.10 -- what software packages do I need to install to get my logitech webcam to work? | 19:35 |
| blueyed | user_: I see. Also very odd. You might file a bug about this. Might be even easier to debug than my problem.. ;) | 19:38 |
| user_ | sure it's just some fucked up settings | 19:38 |
| user_ | as not all users have this 'bug' | 19:38 |
| blueyed | like with mine.. but you can probably manually trigger pinentry somehow and see what it does.. try "pinentry-qt" in a shell. There's a debug flag, but I don't know what to tell him ("orders"). | 19:39 |
| foormea | hey, aren't i supposed to have pulseaudio installed by default in karmic?! | 19:40 |
| blueyed | not with Kubuntu AFAIK | 19:41 |
| blueyed | But I have installed both Ubuntu and Kubuntu. | 19:41 |
| blueyed | Most KDE apps do not use pulseaudio though (in Karmic), which is a heaven sent in some cases. | 19:41 |
| foormea | installing pulseaudio should just fix my vlc/mplayer issue? | 19:42 |
| foormea | that's weird though, i didn't have this problem with my laptop | 19:42 |
| foormea | vlc and mplayer 'just work' on my laptop on a fresh karmic | 19:42 |
| foormea | but i'm having this issue on my netbook | 19:42 |
| blueyed | vlc works fine for me, but maybe needs some configuration (backend) only. | 19:42 |
| blueyed | foormea: then it's prolly something different/buggy. | 19:43 |
| foormea | mh | 19:43 |
| foormea | i'll be right back | 19:44 |

| BULLMAN | Hi | 19:49 |
| BULLMAN | I have a problem, whenever I try to close a tab on firefox or opera I cannot use the ctrl F4 keystroke | 19:50 |
| BULLMAN | It says that combination is assigned to something else in KDE | 19:50 |
| BULLMAN | kde 4.3 here | 19:50 |
| BULLMAN | any ideas on what can i do? | 19:50 |
| blueyed | BULLMAN: for me, ctrl-f4 switches to desktop 4. Try Ctrl-W instead. | 19:53 |
| BULLMAN | control w closes the whole firefox | 19:53 |
| BULLMAN | not the tab | 19:53 |
| blueyed | BULLMAN: not for me. Are you confusing ctrl-w with alt-f4? | 19:53 |
| BULLMAN | no | 19:54 |
| BULLMAN | alt F4 closes the window | 19:54 |
| BULLMAN | just as ctrl w does | 19:54 |
| macisp2000 | So does the new firefox 3.6 show up on the system updates? Or what do you have to do? | 19:54 |
| blueyed | odd. | 19:54 |
| BULLMAN | I tried to look for the keyboard shortcuts on system preferences but I just cannot find any ctrl f4 | 19:55 |
| blueyed | macisp2000: no in Karmic, and even not in Lucid until now/yesterday. Try http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/ubuntuzilla/ instead. | 19:55 |
| blueyed | BULLMAN: pressing ctrl-f4 does nothing for you? or does it switch to desktop 4, too? | 19:56 |
| BULLMAN | nope | 19:56 |
| BULLMAN | ctrl f4 does nothing at all | 19:56 |
| blueyed | but who says it's registered? when you want to assign a new shortcut? | 19:57 |
| BULLMAN | i dont know what happened, at first it used to work fine | 19:58 |
| BULLMAN | ctrl f4 to close tabs | 19:58 |
| macisp2000 | I downloaded it from firefox website. Extracted it in my downloads folder. I can run it from my downloads folder, but I have no idea were to put it normally? | 20:00 |
| blueyed | macisp2000: use the project, I've mentioned: they provide the original builds via a repo for easy installation/upgrade. | 20:01 |
| blueyed | macisp2000: otherwise, you could create a local .desktop file for launching or just a script in ~/bin maybe. But I suggest you take the ubuntuzilla route. Makes upgrades easier, too. | 20:02 |

| BULLMAN | it was assigned to KWin | 20:17 |
| BULLMAN | to change to desktop 4 | 20:17 |
| BULLMAN | but since I had only 2 desktops | 20:17 |

| BluesKaj | <--uses google-chrome aswell | 23:27 |
| damanmagee | I have been pleasently surprised at the software support for linux by some of the big software companies, its beyond me why linux isnt more mass market that what it is | 23:30 |
| marcosRz | guys | 23:35 |

| damanmagee | update-rc.d [-n] <basename> defaults [NN | SS KK] | 23:41 |
| damanmagee | update-rc.d [-n] <basename> start|stop NN runlvl [runlvl] [...] . | 23:41 |

| axiom | Why can't I have sound from KDE app *and* flash apps in the same session. Why does it have to be one or the other? | 23:44 |
| marcosRz | Am I the only one who thinks KPackageKit sucks? I mean Synaptic is way better | 23:45 |
| BluesKaj | axiom, install flashplugin-nonfree | 23:45 |
| BluesKaj | marcosRz, nope, youaren't theonly one :) | 23:45 |
| marcosRz | I mean | 23:46 |
| axiom | BluesKaj: Yes, I have that installed | 23:46 |
| marcosRz | I try to keep *loyal* to kde | 23:46 |
| marcosRz | but theres like major stuff that sucks on kde | 23:47 |
| marcosRz | for example | 23:47 |
| marcosRz | browser | 23:47 |
| marcosRz | why can't kde have a decent browser? | 23:47 |
| marcosRz | I feel sick to use firefox/chromium under KDE :( | 23:47 |
| marcosRz | Yes I've tried arora/rekonq/konqueror | 23:47 |
| axiom | BluesKaj: Flash work with sound, sometime if I "sudo alsa force-reload" enough times, but something is not right | 23:47 |
| crimsun | axiom: 64-bit or 32-bit? | 23:48 |
| axiom | I am on 64-bit | 23:48 |
| crimsun | axiom: don't use flashplugin | 23:48 |
| crimsun | sorry | 23:48 |
| crimsun | axiom: don't use flashplugin-installer; use the native 64-bit alpha from labs.adobe | 23:48 |
| damanmagee | is there any need to install the java runtime on kubuntu, what programs use it? | 23:49 |
| axiom | Well, yes, I know, there is a 64-bit plugin, and it works great and doesn't crash, but I could never get sound out of it | 23:49 |
| crimsun | axiom: and you are /not/ using PulseAudio, correct? | 23:49 |
| axiom | Hmmm.. I think pulseaudio is the only way to run surround sound, no? | 23:50 |
| crimsun | axiom: no | 23:50 |
| axiom | Is there a page somewhere that expains how audio should work in KDE, because I have read a lot of differnent things and am kinda confused | 23:50 |
| BluesKaj | interesting crimsun , I'm using 64 bit nad flashplugin-nonfree works just fine | 23:51 |
| BluesKaj | and | 23:51 |
| crimsun | BluesKaj: it works for some people | 23:51 |
| axiom | so should I be using esound? | 23:51 |
| crimsun | axiom: no | 23:51 |
| axiom | alsa then? | 23:51 |
| crimsun | axiom: you always have ALSA unless you explicitly compile and install OSS v4 | 23:52 |
| axiom | alright.. | 23:52 |
| crimsun | axiom: so, do you have PA active? | 23:52 |
| axiom | I just uninstalled it | 23:53 |
| crimsun | axiom: uninstall or purge? | 23:53 |
| crimsun | axiom: if you're going to get rid of PA, you need to purge it | 23:53 |
| crimsun | axiom: after you've purged pulseaudio, you need to killall pulseaudio | 23:55 |
| === david is now known as Guest86097 | ||
| crimsun | axiom: then, you need to (re)configure KDE System Settings > Multimedia and put PulseAudio at the bottom/lowest priority | 23:56 |
| marcosRz | damn | 23:56 |
| marcosRz | I'm using synaptic right know | 23:56 |
| marcosRz | I feel so sick | 23:56 |
| marcosRz | :( | 23:56 |
| FloodBotK2 | marcosRz: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 23:56 |
| axiom | pulseadio is gone, and amrok still works | 23:57 |
| axiom | I need to get rid of the 32-buit flash theb | 23:57 |
| axiom | but when I try to "sudo apt-get remove flashplugin-nonfree" it tries to also uninstall kde... | 23:58 |
| crimsun | axiom: huh? perhaps kubuntu-restricted-extras? | 23:59 |
