| lillaka | The flash game doesn't work | 04:36 |

| len__ | Do you have the adobe version? (adobe flash non-free, or something like that). | 04:39 |
| len__ | If they wait too long, final will be out by that time. | 04:40 |
| e_t_ | which will, in turn, take time to enter repos. | 04:41 |
| lillaka | len__: i have in synaptic => flashplugin-installer 10.0.42.34ubuntu0.9.04.1 | 04:41 |
| lillaka | len__: nonfree is not selected | 04:41 |
| len__ | I think they recently changed the name of the package. Sounds like you have adobe flash installed. What game is it? Must be really old it it's talking about flash 7. | 04:43 |
| lillaka | len__: can i give you the link to check ? | 04:44 |
| len__ | Versons are supposed to be backward compatible. | 04:44 |
| len__ | OK | 04:44 |
| lillaka | len__: http://www3.jeux.com/jeux/jeux.php?VIDJeux=3380 | 04:44 |
| len__ | I get the same message. | 04:45 |
| len__ | I wonder if it only works on Windows for some reason. | 04:46 |
| lillaka | len__: other games on this website works on linux... strange | 04:46 |
| len__ | Or maybe it hasn't been looked after for a long time and verson 10 is considered an unknown version number. | 04:46 |
| lillaka | len__: so it's not really a problem of Ubuntu, it's developper side | 04:47 |
| len__ | Probably. It might be version checking for the existance of flash 7 through 9, or something. | 04:48 |
| lillaka | len__: ah ok | 04:49 |
| lillaka | len__: thank you very much, i will check with a Windows Live CD | 04:49 |
| len__ | Good luck. I have virtual box and vmware. I could check it through there to see what I get. | 04:50 |
| lillaka | len__: it's only this game who are not working so i think it's not very good programming | 04:51 |
| len__ | Or just no maintanence for a long time. Might have been ok when it was first put up years ago. | 04:52 |
| lillaka | len__: most important is that my ubuntu has no problem, its why i asking ;) | 04:53 |
| lillaka | len__: thanks for answering | 04:54 |
| len__ | I sometimes have flash issues, but that's mainly because I'm running 64-bit kubuntu, and the flash package in the repos is 32-bit and runs through a wrapper. I should change it to the native 64--bit beta one on adobe's site. | 04:55 |
| lillaka | len__: i have 64 bit Ubuntu too :) | 04:57 |
| len__ | the wrapper get hung up sometimes and hogs cpu in the background, and I have to kill it manually to get my cycles back. | 04:57 |
| len__ | I wonder if Lucid has the 64-bit version in the repos rather than using 32-bit +wrapper? | 04:58 |

| titan_ark | hey. have 2 queries, firstly is there anyway i can have a notifier constantly show me when i have an update rather than just an update. i remember it being there on ubuntu, but after i switched to kde cant seem to see it | 05:18 |
| e_t_ | titan_ark: I'm not sure what you mean. Can you elaborate? | 05:23 |
| titan_ark | e_t_: in ubuntu and fedora i have seen that there is a notifier that comes up in the panel at the top or bottom which indicates that there are updates, but now in kubuntu i only get a pop up message and if i dont happen to see it i dont even realize that there is a fix that i need to update unless i check in kpachagekit | 05:25 |
| titan_ark | ca*kpackagekit | 05:25 |
| titan_ark | damn! pardo my typos | 05:26 |
| titan_ark | e_t_: are you with me?> | 05:27 |
| e_t_ | OK. For one thing, you can set kpackagekit to automatically install security updates. Also, I think there's a plasma applet called Message Indicator that is supposed to store notifications. | 05:27 |
| titan_ark | e_t_: well i would prefer to select the updates i want. so i would prefer an indicator. | 05:28 |
| titan_ark | is there an applet | 05:28 |
| titan_ark | shall check it | 05:28 |
| titan_ark | should i check for an applet or widget? | 05:28 |
| titan_ark | pardon my ignorance, not very familiar with linux | 05:29 |
| e_t_ | widgets == applets, at least in plasma | 05:29 |
| titan_ark | e_t_: oh okay. but no, i cant see it in the list of widgets | 05:30 |
| daitan | ?? | 05:30 |
| titan_ark | e_t_: there is a notification and jobs and indicator display already On, but they dont seem to do the job | 05:31 |
| e_t_ | OK. That's the thing I wasn't sure on, whether it would do for updates. In earlier versions of Kubuntu, a gear with a green arrow would appear, indicating updates. However, I have not seen it in 9.10. | 05:34 |
| titan_ark | e_t_: yeah thats exactly what i want. | 05:35 |
| titan_ark | so there is no way to get that on i guess? | 05:35 |
| === [BT]Brendan is now known as [BNC]Brendan | ||
| e_t_ | Under kpackagekit > settings, there is a check box for notify when updates are available. | 05:38 |
| titan_ark | e_t_: yes i have that checked. it just gives a pop up when there is an update and goes down :P | 05:40 |
| titan_ark | and if i am not noticing it then i miss it :D | 05:40 |
| e_t_ | There is an "i' icon in the system tray that stores announcements like that until you look at them, though I can't remember whether they expire on their own or not. | 05:41 |
| titan_ark | e_t_: okay. shall check that. i dont remember seeing it. but shall check | 05:42 |
| titan_ark | e_t_: i am also facing trouble with powermanagement. everytime notebook recovers from sleep it tells me i have no battery | 05:45 |
| titan_ark | it seems to be a fix that is needed for certain hp and dell notebooks | 05:45 |
| titan_ark | i found a bug reported and they have given a patch that needs to be recompiled with the kernel and i have no clue how to do it | 05:45 |
| jc0694 | i've downloaded texlive and am trying to figure out how to start latex. can anybody help? | 05:46 |
| e_t_ | titan_ark: does your computer shut off when it says it has no battery? | 05:48 |
| === Fanfare[afk] is now known as Fanfare | ||
| titan_ark | e_t_: yes it goes back to sleep but after i attemot to recover 2-3 times i can then use it | 05:48 |
| e_t_ | Hmm. I don't know much about power management options. My Dell has always worked perfectly. | 05:49 |
| titan_ark | e_t_: yeah my friends on dell also dont have this problem and i have a friend with the same notebook as me using the kde version of fedora and he does not face my problem | 05:51 |
| e_t_ | jc0649: you will probably be far, far happier using a program like Lyx, rather than messing with latex directly. If you really want though, check out http://www.tug.org/texlive/ | 05:54 |

| Peace- | well i used the debian tutorial to compile my kernel... | 09:15 |
| Peace- | it's not so hard to understand ... but.... | 09:16 |
| Peace- | what a waste of time to understand everysilly stuff | 09:16 |
| Peace- | anyway you can save your time because your kernel has a configuration file | 09:16 |
| Peace- | and the most of time people use that configuration file | 09:16 |
| titan_ark | hmmm okay | 09:16 |
| Peace- | but i know ... i can 't help you so much | 09:17 |
| Peace- | i am a bit lazy today | 09:17 |

| Peace- | titan_ark: if ti works well if not reboot and pick another up | 09:23 |
| titan_ark | Peace-: :D I already have 6 options there from the previous updates and the memtest and 2 windows options! talk abt clutter!@ | 09:23 |
| Peace- | titan_ark: well when you install your own kernel you use ... a .deb package xD | 09:24 |

| Peace- | titan_ark: when you creates your own kernel the most of time you get a kernel.deb | 09:26 |
| Peace- | titan_ark: so it's like a software you can install aand remove it | 09:26 |
| titan_ark | okay | 09:26 |
| titan_ark | ah | 09:26 |

| buckfast | Hey. I'm trying to watch a video with Mplayer, it plays fine but gives me this message when opening: looks like this file was encoded with (divx4/(old)xvid/opendivx) -> forcing low_delay flag. I'm using xv video and alsa audio. | 12:00 |
| Peace- | buckfast: mmm | 12:04 |
| Peace- | buckfast: have you ffmpeg? | 12:04 |
| amichair | is there an option in konversation to restore open channels after a restart? (not just auto-join settings for specific channels) | 12:05 |
| buckfast | Peace-: probably not, pretty much default kubuntu | 12:08 |
| Peace- | buckfast: could you try ffplay /path/File | 12:08 |
| Peace- | buckfast: mmm kffmpegthumbnailer is much more faster than mplayethumbs... | 12:09 |
| Peace- | buckfast: try it... | 12:09 |

| Peace- | mmm | 12:10 |
| cime | hi! I want to install lucid (daily) on eeePC from an USB key... but I get that cd-rom mount error... anybody know how to solve this? I know there was a solution with manual loading a module and then choosing USB device as CD-ROM | 12:10 |
| Peace- | if ffplay doesn't work it's bad | 12:10 |
| Peace- | cime: first tha is not stable... | 12:10 |
| Peace- | cime: second use daily build | 12:11 |
| Peace- | cime: 3' use alternate iso | 12:11 |
| cime | Peace-: it is all of that :) a daily build, alternate | 12:11 |
| buckfast | Peace-: so i'll just install ffmpeg? | 12:12 |
| Peace- | cime: have you a usb boot compatible mother board? | 12:12 |
| Peace- | buckfast: ffplay is a part of ffmpeg | 12:12 |
| Peace- | cime: then if you have use unetbootin | 12:12 |
| Peace- | and a compatible usb stick to boot | 12:12 |
| Peace- | not every usb stick can boot. | 12:12 |
| cime | Peace-: copied with unetbootin to an usb key.... yes, it boots.... but in the first steps of installation it can't load CD drivers (because there is none)... | 12:13 |
| Peace- | mm | 12:13 |
| Peace- | look strange i have lucid and i ahve installed via usb | 12:13 |
| buckfast | Peace-: What do you suggest then | 12:13 |
| cime | Peace-: I know there was a solution of using USB key (/dev/sdb) as a fak CD-ROM... | 12:13 |
| Peace- | buckfast: ffplay namefile | 12:14 |
| buckfast | Peace-: Does not work | 12:14 |
| Peace- | buckfast: this means a damaged file | 12:14 |
| buckfast | Peace-: ffmpeg is not installed | 12:14 |
| Peace- | buckfast: -.-'' install it then | 12:14 |
| buckfast | alright | 12:14 |
| buckfast | Peace-: ffplay works but gives same error: looks like this file was encoded with (divx4/(old)xvid/opendivx) -> forcing low_delay flag | 12:16 |
| Peace- | buckfast: maybe you have to rebuild the index | 12:16 |
| buckfast | Peace-: how | 12:16 |
| Peace- | mencoder -forceidx -ovc copy -oac copy mifile -o outfile.avi | 12:17 |
| Peace- | that maybe could be not completed | 12:17 |
| Peace- | but it should be some like that | 12:17 |

| tyho | i have a problem with ssh key authentication, it still asks me for a password: http://paste.ubuntu.com/370279/ what did i do wrong? | 14:19 |
| dmatt | tyho: I am not sure but when I had this problem it was because of incorrect rights settings. Look in documentation for exact correct rwx for files and directories. otherwise it will not work. | 14:27 |
| buckfast | what is the default font in kde 4.3 | 14:31 |
| tyho | dmatt: i set authorized_keys to 600, is that right? | 14:31 |
| dmatt | tyho: well, i did it log time ago but you can probably find answer here http://www.ldeo.columbia.edu/~vschmidt/notes/sshconfig_notes.htm | 14:34 |

| buckfast | http://www.kde.org/announcements/4.3/images/kde430-desktop.png | 14:41 |
| buckfast | like there | 14:41 |
| dmatt | tyho: :) glad to help | 14:44 |
| Gazra | How can I make the akonadi server to work? | 14:46 |
| kaddi_ | buckfast: you can select the fonts you like in systemsettings ->appearance-> fonts | 14:46 |
| buckfast | kaddi_: I understand KDE 4.3 uses Helvetica fonts? | 14:47 |
| kaddi_ | buckfast: that I don't know | 14:47 |
| buckfast | Some of the desktop effects are pretty sweet in KDE | 14:49 |
| buckfast | Some dont work for some reason | 14:49 |
| buckfast | Should I be using proprietary drivers or open source drivers? | 14:50 |
| Kolia | buckfast: for your graphic card? | 14:53 |
| buckfast | Kolia: Yes, I have ati hd 3870 | 14:54 |
| Kolia | buckfast: just open "Hardware Drivers" and see if something is available | 14:55 |
| kaddi_ | I have a very weird "bug" when my laptop looses power: The grub menu entries for ubuntu get rewritten from "root (hd0,6)" "kernel ... root=/dev/sda7" to "root (hd0,5)" "kernel .... root=/dev/sda8". Any idea what might be causing this? | 14:55 |
| buckfast | Kolia: fglrx is awailable, thats what I'm using right now | 14:56 |
| Kolia | then i don't know | 14:56 |
| kaddi_ | of course that renders ubuntu unbootable adn I have to manually edit the grub menu before being able to boot a kernel again | 14:56 |
| Kolia | sometimes people are told to get the lastest version of their driver for the manufacturer site, to fix some problem | 14:56 |
| Kolia | buckfast: i can't say more sorry | 14:57 |
| buckfast | ok | 14:57 |
| Vinleg | hey i have a problem, i tried to transfer music from my laptop into my iPod nano, it's successfully added, but it wouldnt show up as a song on the iPod, but it uses the space | 15:06 |
| dmatt | kaddi_: check which version of grub you have and if the file you edit is not actually automatically recreated (grub and grub2 are quite different) | 15:10 |
| kaddi_ | dmatt: i use grub(1) and the change only happens when Ioose power, eg the battery dies, when I shut down the PC normally this doesn't happen. | 15:11 |
| dmatt | kaddi_: that's strange | 15:13 |
| kaddi_ | dmatt: exact version of grub according to apt-cache is: Installiert: 0.97-29ubuntu59 | 15:14 |
| === ubu6 is now known as lvh | ||
| kaddi_ | dmatt: it is. And since I know how to edit grub menu when it's booted I can easily fix it, it's just peculiar, something that I find interesting. and would like to understand | 15:15 |
| dmatt | kaddi_: do you always edit menu while in boot process or do you edit menu.lst later from booted system? | 15:16 |
| kaddi_ | dmatt: i edit from edit menu when it happens, but that isn't permanent (or I don't know how to make a permanent change) so I edit the menu.lst later from the booted system to the right settings and save them | 15:17 |
| kaddi_ | i only use the edit menu when the PC won't boot without me editing it. | 15:18 |
| Gazra | How can I make the akonadi server to work? Every time I try to start it I get error messages | 15:19 |
| dmatt | kaddi_: did you check timestamp to see WHEN was the file changed? | 15:19 |
| kaddi_ | no, letme do that now | 15:19 |
| === ubu6 is now known as lvh | ||
| kaddi_ | dmatt: 16 hours ago | 15:20 |
| kaddi_ | oh wait | 15:20 |
| kaddi_ | that actually coincides with the kernel update they issued 2 days ago | 15:20 |
| kaddi_ | i installed that yesterday evening | 15:21 |
| kaddi_ | i thought that it was related to power loss, but it may actually be related to kernel updates. I don't reboot very often so it's possible that the time I noticed the discrepancy after a power loss coincided with "reboots" after kernel updates | 15:22 |
| dmatt | kaddi_: i suspected something like that | 15:25 |
| kaddi_ | dmatt: what could cause the kernel update to confuse grub that much though? | 15:27 |
| dmatt | after kernel update, grub automatically recreates grub menu in order to call newly installed kernel | 15:28 |
| dmatt | the problem lies probably in grub, which does not recognize your drives correctly | 15:28 |
| dmatt | so it would generate incorrect menu.lst if you run it now manually | 15:30 |
| kaddi_ | how do i get it to generate a menu.lst manually? so i can check if that's the problem? | 15:30 |
| dmatt | try sudo update-grub and check menu.lst | 15:30 |
| kaddi_ | k brb | 15:31 |
| === Kubit_ is now known as Kubit | ||
| kaddi_ | dmatt: I did an sudo update-grub but the menu.lst remains the same (correct entries) | 15:34 |
| dmatt | kaddi_: do you have more system installed on one computer? | 15:35 |
| dmatt | kaddi_: you might be editing wrong menu.lst | 15:35 |
| kaddi_ | dmatt: yes i have xp, win7 and kubuntu installed on the PC | 15:36 |
| kaddi_ | I'm editing the /boot/grub/menu.lst in kubuntu | 15:36 |
| dmatt | kaddi_: only one linux should not cause the problem | 15:37 |
| kaddi_ | only one linux | 15:37 |
| dmatt | kaddi_: you can try reinstall kernel upgrade an check menu.lst afterwards | 15:37 |
| kaddi_ | dmatt: I'm considering removing one. Do you know if that'll rewrite menu.lst as well? | 15:38 |
| dmatt | kaddi_: yes | 15:38 |
| kaddi_ | lol, that brings me to another "oddity" why does "sudo apt-get remove 2.6.31-13*" remove ALL kernels from the 2.6.31 series and not just the update 13? | 15:40 |
| kaddi_ | dmatt: it's definitely the kernel updating. removing kernel 2.6.31-13 brought back the hd0,5 and sda8 instead of hd0,6 and sda7 | 15:41 |
| dmatt | kaddi_: now you know HOW but not WHY :) | 15:53 |
| kaddi_ | dmatt: that's some progress :D | 15:53 |
| dmatt | kaddi_: try to add and remove some kernels through synaptic | 15:54 |

| dmatt | kaddi_: can you check if grub-pc is installed? | 16:23 |
| kaddi_ | dmatt: it isn't. I was thinking of backing up menu.lst and see what grub-update creates next. that should show if grub-udpate produces the same wrong list as the kernel updates I hope | 16:24 |
| === jesus__ is now known as jebus7 | ||
| dmatt | kaddi_: try it... did you have different partitions when you installed grub? maybe it tries to return to some old disk partitioning | 16:28 |
| kaddi_ | dmatt: running update-grub after removing the old menu.lst recreates a new menu.lst which identifies the partitions by uuid rather than by partition. it has lost the windows partitions though | 16:29 |

| Pumuky | Hallo. I use KU 9.04 installed with wubi. After a "apt-get dist-upgrade" I reboot my system and Kubuntu doesn't starts. Instead of kubuntu menu, starts grub. How can I repair it? | 20:24 |
| kitsune | That you for halping me =] | 20:24 |
| BluesKaj | kitsune, cool :) | 20:24 |
| kitsune | I have been fighting with this thing for days | 20:24 |
| BluesKaj | grub is supposed to help you decide which OS you want to boot into | 20:25 |
| Pumuky | But i'm not displayed the grub menu. What starts is "grub>" | 20:26 |
| Pumuky | And I don't know how repair grub when using wubi. | 20:27 |
| Pumuky | Now I'm in life CD. Is there any command for reparing grub when installed with wubi? | 20:28 |

| darthanubis | Pumuky: i could have told you if you was not using wubi | 20:36 |
| darthanubis | Pumuky: I'd have to do a google and forum search for you to find out. | 20:37 |
| darthanubis | Pumuky: your issue is so generic you'd be better able to get a reply form #ubuntu, just don't mention your using Kubuntu | 20:37 |
| darthanubis | it is all the same when it comes to wubi | 20:38 |
| Pumuky | I've been using Kubuntu for 2 years. But I've bought a laptop and included Win7. I try to use only Linux, but have some problems with hardware... Till not solved, I can't use it | 20:38 |
| darthanubis | you can dual-boot, you don't HAVE to use wubi | 20:38 |
| darthanubis | and i curious to what "issues" prevent you from using linux. but that is neither here nor there. You could always use windows in virtualbox | 20:39 |
| darthanubis | so many options to avoid wubi | 20:39 |
| Pumuky | I know but I don't what to resize disks for warranty problems (I can give it back in two week if it doesn't work fine...) | 20:40 |
| darthanubis | Pumuky: I understand now | 20:40 |
| darthanubis | :) | 20:40 |
| darthanubis | That seems crazy they'd void a warrenty over partition resize? | 20:41 |
| Pumuky | Yes, I've to give it back as they gave it to me. | 20:41 |
| Pumuky | If I resize... I lose the possibility of returning... | 20:42 |
| Peace- | mmm well it's normal | 20:42 |
| Peace- | wait 2 weeks then :D | 20:42 |

| lnx4ver | konqueror ~ , wlll open konqueror in your home folder | 23:47 |
| lnx4ver | I dont use konqueror as a file manager I'd have to take a look | 23:49 |
| _BS_ | In4ver - you use dolphin? | 23:49 |
| lnx4ver | yes but more the mc program in konsole, it is much faster than any gui file manager | 23:50 |
| Idhan | hi, I have overclock my cpu from 2.0Ghz to 2.4Ghz but the cpu cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep -i Mhz shows only 2.0Ghz | 23:50 |
| lnx4ver | I know you can create profile with konqueror then there must be some way to start in this profile automatically | 23:51 |
| _BS_ | OK, got answer to starting konqueror (but I like your answer better) ... from menu editor / file manager - super user mode 'konqueror --profile filemanagement'. What a mouthfull. <sigh> BUT, non-windows explorer layout is truly annoying. Still would like to find that out. (Part of problem is defining good search terms for google.) | 23:53 |
| _BS_ | Interesting ... typed 'kfmclient' at a command prompt. kfmclient isn't what it used to be, apparently, thus my confusion. | 23:56 |
| familia | hello? | 23:57 |
| lnx4ver | yeah I remember using this too | 23:57 |
| kitsune | Hello I got a question, How do I find the icon folder where the desktop icon packs are stored? | 23:59 |
