Occasionally it will connect to the internet but more often than not it wont. I have looked for network drivers but I haven't been able to find anything.

[05:14] so I'm curious to know what type of encryption is used to encrypt the users home directories offered in the installer? [05:15] yeah I mean you can't really blame linux for proprietary codecs. that's a little tarded [05:16] the mp3 codec is proprietary? i don't think so is it? [05:16] jc0694: it is! Frauenhofer institute holdes it iirc... [05:18] can somebody propose the quickest and EASIEST way for a noob to listen to his mp3 collection (like 5 minutes from now i'm listening to my music)? [05:18] jc0694: install medibuntu [05:18] add the medibuntu repo [05:19] can i get that from synaptic...i don't want to do anything with the konsole === Nev3rM0re is now known as Rav3nSw0rd [05:19] !medibuntu | jc0694 [05:20] and btw in the current versions of ubuntu/kubuntu, whenever the comes across something that will need extra codecs it gives little popups offereing to install the stuff right then, doesnt it? what's the problem hee? [05:20] please i don't know s**t about linux... i need something with a gui (like synaptic) that will install this stuff, preferably asap [05:20] harolddong: u have to install medibuntu first ? [05:21] yes, but how do i install medibuntu without going to konsole [05:21] jc0694 if you want to use linux and think you're flat out never going to have to touch the console you're mistaken [05:21] but it's intimidating... [05:21] see here [05:21] jc0694: one command to copy & paste ! https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu [05:22] see here is the problem, jc, adding repos is actually WAY easier with the console than with gui applications in linux [05:22] open your mind, quaid [05:22] he was mistakenly installing kubuntu when he wanted klickibunti [05:22] you have the wrong idea about the console. its actually a godsend, not a hassle [05:23] i don't even know what to say i'm so frustrated with this... [05:24] you're looking at it the wrong way [05:25] there is a learning coming from windows, sure [05:25] but its actually a much more elegant system [05:25] *learning curve [05:33] is there media player will allow me to bookmak video streams? seems like vlc would have that funtionality but I dont see it anywhere === Malin- is now known as Malin_away === Rav3nSw0rd is now known as Nev3rM0re [05:39] can I install kubuntu using wubi? [05:40] yes [05:41] it should be on the cd and should give the option if you insert it in a windows session [05:41] http://www.brighthub.com/computing/linux/articles/14039.aspx [05:45] Chr|s: however you might consider using virtualbox.org and install into a vm instead.. you'll be able to run it in a window in your OS.. then if you want to install or dual boot you can do that too.

I really don't want to reseed manually over 100 torrents. I checked it's main folder and it's nothing related to my seeding torrents over there, maybe there's another folder storing that data, like I had in windows for utorrent a folder full of .torrent files. [11:21] why would you need to reseed? [11:22] because i'm a seeder [11:22] i like seeding lots of torrents [11:22] for months [11:22] years [11:22] but, you've already seeded them, that doesn't disappear [11:22] it's just a number in your client [11:22] i'm not talking about that [11:22] however, all the ktorrent stuff should be under ~/.kde [11:22] it's not [11:23] can't find anything related to my seeding torrents [11:24] well, it should be in ~/.kde, but you can try asking in #ktorrent or #kde if not [11:24] i tried, but no reply... [11:25] i'll try kde === cuznt is now known as Guest75184 === bewofthe is now known as ghost === ghost is now known as bewofthe [11:35] I think they are there at .kde/share/apps/ktorrent [11:35] I have a quick question. alt-f2, run command interface, I start typing and see a command that appears it can autocomplete. how do you autocomplete it? [11:36] It usually provides a drop down box, but not always. [11:36] vbgunz_: right arrow should autocomplete it [11:37] or press the right-arrow key if you mean the greyed-out text part [11:37] Mamarok: yeah thats it [11:37] so how big should I make the swap space? [11:37] can I make that tab? [11:37] Pixar2: Yea, thy are present at .kde/share/apps/ktorrent [11:37] I have 4 GB RAM [11:37] buckfast: double your RAM, unless you have 4 GB of RAM or more, then 4 Gb is enough [11:38] I can see why not [11:38] I swear that folder has 200 kb [11:38] vbgunz_: no, since the tab moves in the proposed items below [11:39] Mamarok: yeah, I guess its cool, just requires my hand to move a quite a lot to autocomplete [11:39] ok, 4GB it is then [11:39] Mamarok: thanks, its all good, I get it [11:39] Pixar2: goto Ktorrent->settings->Configure Ktorrent. There is an option there. What version are you using? [11:39] buckfast: your swap is usually double your ram [11:40] 3.2.4 [11:40] vbgunz_: I have 4GB ram [11:40] i have zero swap with 4gb ram [11:40] buckfast: read what I told you above [11:41] buckfast, to be safe 8gb swap [11:41] Mamarok: Yes, I'll go with 4GB [11:41] unless you really do alot of multitasking, you rarely hit 4gb ram. 8 gb swap is excessive.. [11:42] idyllic: read what I wrote above [11:42] heh, I have 8gb ram and 16gb swap, I hibernate though almost everyday to dual boot into windows for some stuff. [11:43] vbgunz_: it slows down your computer if it swaps too much, and I can't immagine a reason to have more than the equal amount of RAM above 4 GB [11:44] I have my swappiness at 10, hibernation goes nuts on the swap right? [11:44] well, the more you swap, the slower it gets [11:45] I did the double just to be safe, I rely heavily on hibernation to work [11:45] I frickin wish hibernating was half as fast as suspend though, suspending is awesome [11:47] just curious, the requirements to run the latest 9.10 stable desktop live cd, has it gone pass requiring a pentium 4, 1gb ram? I tried updating a 5 year old box the other day and it was terrible though the new installer looks awesome [11:47] really the new installer is 10/10 [11:48] say, I have swap problems. I have 2G of ram and 4G of swap, and my memory usage is 55% and swap usage 29%, so switching tasks is slow. this usually happens after I run a specific (read leaking like a sieve) Java program. I rather have 95% ram usage and 10% swap or somth like that [11:48] avihay absolutely I would think [11:48] Hi, people [11:49] how can I control that? === avihay_ is now known as avihay [11:49] google ubuntu swappiness, the lower the number the more ram you use before you start relying on swap [11:50] linux swappiness should work but just in case something specific about it, ubuntu swappiness is what you're looking for I believe [11:50] thanks for the advice [11:55] grr ... [11:57] hey avihay did you find this page https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq ? [11:58] two things on there good for you, one is chaning swappiness and 2 is a small script that will move everything in swap back into ram [11:59] ya, first hit in the big G. looking carefully at free's output, I discovered that I have 90% ram taken already and the "system load viewer" applet is lying to me [11:59] ahh [12:01] I installed kubuntu after win 7, but theres no boot loader :S [12:01] Even though in the installation I told it to install a boot loader [12:03] Drag and drop doesn't seem to work on KDE or Gnome. Anyone know how to fix this? The moment you try to drag anything, that window gains focus and if it covers majority of the screen, the app you want to drag it into gets hidden. [12:05] Vishesh: you can drag to the taskbar, hover until the app pops up, and then drag to the app. I too am wondering why that particular feature isn't implemented [12:08] avihay: Sweet. Thanks. It's a good workaround. [12:10] Why isnt the boot loader showing up === user is now known as Guest63136 [12:15] hi [12:16] fasdad [12:18] buckfast: try to reinstall it manually from a livecd.

[14:02] tew88: have you checked your syslog yet? [14:03] lein: Nope. First real experience with Linux... not sure where to look or what to look for. [14:05] tew88: k, np. your desktop is frozen, can you do anything on it? [14:05] (especially when I can't access my taskbar!) [14:05] It's working at the moment. It saves up my actions and then executes them all at once [14:06] Managed to open my System Log [14:06] Anything in particular I should look for? [14:07] tew88: sounds kinda like it has to much to do at one time. anything that say error [14:07] A few cron jobs from an hour ago, this recently (which coincides somewhat with my problem, timing-wise): 2010-02-03 14:02:43 october-horse kernel [68353.234682] hda-intel: Too big adjustment 32 [14:08] tew88: you may have alot of background stuff going [14:09] tew88: what distro and desktop are you running? [14:10] Nope, no errors [14:10] Hmm, some GTK+ bug fixes showing in software updates... will give that a try [14:10] Kubuntu 9.10, default KDE that ships with that I presume [14:14] tew88: yup kubuntu is kde. that could be it. may also wanna check system monitor and check you cpu and ram loads. if the cpu / ram loads are high then you may want to check and see if theres any background processes that you don't need that are eating up your resources === dione is now known as dione-munir === dendrobates is now known as dendro-afk [14:35] holy /crap/ that's a lot of security holes in Qt. ^_^;; [14:36] http://www.debian.org/security/2010/dsa-1988 [14:38] i've had 3 kwin crashes in the last two days.

[15:09] somebody! [15:10] bye [15:10] Hi.. Is there any way I can create a new wireless connection which is not Ad-Hoc, (it would be AP, or HotSpot), and share internet connection from my wired LAN network card, under Kubuntu 9.10? Is hostapd usable for this? [15:10] hollywood: Flash doesn't come with firefox by default in (K)ubuntu. [15:10] yes [15:10] I know [15:10] but where the button to reinclude [15:11] i know it is not a quastion directly for kubuntu, but i dont know where else to ask ^^; need to share my wired internet as an AP for my Nintendo DS and i dont want to buy a router for that..

It is not compatible with the way that Ubuntu packages handle configuration files, and is likely to cause unexpected issues with your system. See !ebox instead. [15:19] oops..

I can't even get into text mode. it's the graphics I'm sure. But I can fix anything unless I can at least view the tty [17:14] tty 1-6 [17:14] any ideas? [17:15] can't fix anything* [17:15] I installed with the alternate disk, and the liveCD has the same problem [17:15] I'll let someone with more knowledge answer your question; but I'm pretty sure it has something to do with hardware rather than ubuntu. [17:16] the graphics hardware. but it wont even let me into the text modes [17:16] I think its a new grub [17:17] wait, grub worked before v2? [17:17] the laptop is 3 months old or so [17:17] it worked before 9.1 [17:17] fedora works fine too [17:17] but I just deleted fedora [17:18] gfxpayload=text [17:18] well i don't want to break things any further. I'd love to help but I would just make things worse :) [17:18] break away [17:18] u can't break it unless I can see the text eh [17:24] that just lets me see the text untill kdm kicks in ? [17:24] it doesnt even get that far [17:27]
