Whats wrong?

[01:18] cbwcjw: just playing with the updated Quassel [01:18] i may be a fuddy duddy but konversation seems so much more friendly to me, i can't fathom why quassel is the default [01:19] Quassel works well for me, but meh. [01:20] i'm sure it's awesome but atm it's too irritating for me to want to learn it [01:20] brb [01:39] Hello. I cannot set dofferent zoom parameters to folders. [01:39] Is this normal in Dolphin? [01:40] I mean, set some zoom value to one folder and other to other folder and that each folder remembers its zoom value. [01:40] Is that possible? [01:42] What do you mean by zoom? [01:42] ok where is the list of channels... sorry very newb here [01:42] okay so I stoped kdm. Did Xorg -configure and then started KDM. Now when graphical mode starts it loads then turns into a blank screen [01:42] Applying a zoom value to the a folder in dolphin. [01:43] salvad1: If it's what I was trying to find the solution to, which is large icons in detail mode, this worked for me (mostly I use konqueror): Ctrl + Mouse Wheel, and it's stayed the same in all folders. [01:43] To see bigger thumbnails icons. [01:44] I do not want the same zoom value in all the folder. [01:44] I think that may work, try it and see. [01:44] Hrm [01:44] Each value to each folder. [01:46] Can someone please help lol. Console mode sucks [01:47] salvad1: While my ctrl + mousewheel works to change that, it doesn't seem to want to be confined to a particular folder. [01:47] clone1018: KDE 4.4? [01:47] The most recent version that comes with Kubuntu [01:48] What graphics card, which driver, and have you made any changes to kdm? [01:49] ATI Radeon x1250. No driver (But worked perfectly before) and no [01:50] Okay it seems like the background loads and programs load (or at least the wallet) but not the ui [01:54] and I cant click on any links.

[02:12] i dont know [02:13] sry dude [02:13] Why would you connect apache and sql? [02:13] They dont need to be connected as apache doesnt use sql [02:13] school project . [02:13] Well as far as I know [02:13] They dont connect [02:13] I love how often I see that answer around here. =) [02:13] "school project" that is. [02:13] lol [02:14] yes ... lol [02:14] i got to fire up some transaction to a sql sitting on windows 2003 server and get some data back from a sql server [02:14] yes, ms sql server [02:14] * Daughain chuckles....

[02:17] lol [02:17] I just restarted kdm [02:18] Thats how I got there the last two times. =) [02:18] Deleted the wrong package. [02:18] restarted kdm???? [02:18] stopped it [02:18] then started it [02:18] To configure xorg [02:19] via terminal? [02:19] via tty1 [02:19] You try a system reboot? [02:19] Yes [02:19] several times [02:19] I remember doing something like that once and a reboot solved it. [02:20] OK, well, Thats all the advice I had...Sorry. [02:20] lol [02:20] thanks anyways [02:20] I may not know much, but I still try to help. =) [02:20] I guess I will just use telnet to browse the web [02:20] :P [02:20] EEeew... [02:20] I remember telnet... [02:20] ya lol [02:21] From *before* gui. [02:21] Good luck, mate. [02:23] folks [02:23] Morning, ev0sx1 [02:24] assume you have 2 partitions. one with 80gb, and another with 10gb. I have linux installed also on the 80gb partition, but i installed on the 10gb partition an older version. Both of kubuntu 9.10. How can i make the linux install on the 10gb partition assume all system files are on the 10gb, but the home folder and all other preferences and installed programs are on the 80gb partition? [02:25] Buenas noches [02:26] ¿Alguien vivo? [02:26] !es | m44 [02:26] m44: En la mayoría de canales de Ubuntu se habla sólo en inglés. Si busca ayuda en español o charlar entra en el canal #ubuntu-es. Escribe "/join #ubuntu-es" (sin comillas) y dale a enter. [02:31] Anyone know if it is plossible to access the phone number assigned to a 3G card byu the carrier and use it to place and receive calls? [02:32] dddddd [02:34] Daughain: I would expect not. I think data communications go over a different frequency than voice. [02:35] Not with 3G, as far as I have been able to tell. All the same. GPRS/Edge is different. === silverlogix is now known as LostInTheWoodz [02:43] I stopped and started KDM and now the UI wont load up. How do I fix this? [02:45] clone1018: do you mean the KDE UI or the KDM login window? [02:45] I set it to auto login. So it logs me in. Then the splash screen pops up. Loads then the bg goes away and all I am left with is cursor and black screen [02:46] Thats why I keep gnome, and dont auto login... [02:47] but kde is awesome [02:47] Gnome is boring lol [02:47] I agree, but, when I screw up kde, I can backup to gnome, and usualy get kde fixed. =) [02:47] ONly had to do a kde reinstall once, so far. =)\ [02:47] is it that buggy? [02:48] NO, I'm that new. =) [02:48] clone1018: it sounds like Plasma isn't starting automatically. See if you can get krunner (alt+F2). If you can, type plasma-desktop and hit enter. [02:49] I did [02:49] Still blank screen [02:50] Try opening Konsole and typing plasma-desktop there. That way, you'll be able to see any output. [02:51] I get tons of errors [02:51] Most of them invalid index [02:53] What I've seen work in the past is to delete ~/.kde/share/config/[anything with plasma in the name]. [02:55] Wait seriously? [02:55] Dont i need plasma? [02:55] * Daughain chuckles... [02:56] :< [02:56] Deleting plasma files will force kde to re-create them. [02:56] After a few reboots... [02:56] lol [02:56] ok [02:56] I dont know your answer, but I can explain it once I hear it.....???? [03:01] Daughain: you there? [03:01] Usualy. [03:02] Gmme a few more horus and the answer may be partially. =) [03:02] lol [03:02] Daughain: if possible, help me out [03:02] assume you have 2 partitions. one with 80gb, and another with 10gb. I have linux installed also on the 80gb partition, but i installed on the 10gb partition an older version. Both of kubuntu 9.10. How can i make the linux install on the 10gb partition assume all system files are on the 10gb, but the home folder and all other preferences and installed programs are on the 80gb partition? [03:03] Okay I deleted everything I could find [03:03] And restarted [03:03] 2 times [03:03] it appeared for a second then went away [03:03] May take a few more reboots, clone1018 [03:03] ok lol [03:04] Daughain: any help, or you will keep ignoring my question? [03:05] ev0sx1: I'm a newb, honestly.....You will need to make some manual edits to files, but I dont know which ones. =( Dude, I got three p[eople asking me questions right now, and I can only tyupe so fast. [03:05] kay [03:05] sorry [03:05] and thanks anyway [03:05] ev0sx1: All I can say about which files would be to google it..... [03:06] What ya need to do is change pathnames. [03:06] ev0sx1: you will need to edit /etc/fstab. [03:06] e_t_: only? [03:06] You can do that in fstab??? [03:06] i was messing out with the blkid [03:06] but [03:06] i was unable to be 100% sure of the real UUID [03:07] i know how to change the /home folder to the other partition [03:07] easily done on the user manager screen [03:07] as for the other folders i don't know. [03:07] All i know is that on windows it was easy [03:07] lol [03:09] e_t_: any idea? i found help online, but only to change the home screen [03:09] :/ [03:09] 10th time restarting [03:09] I don't know how to get the UUID either. If you find it, you should be able to add an fstab entry with a mount point of /home and that *should* make it a permanent mount. [03:10] hi guys [03:11] clone1018: what version of Kubuntu, of KDE? [03:11] yes i know... and getting the blkid command is also easy [03:11] i'm actually building my touchbook prototype that should be produced if things are going ok in the year [03:11] Newest of Kubuntu and Not sure on KDE [03:11] that said i'm searching for a kubuntu version to be used smoothly with fingers and touch screen only [03:12] But i think its the newest [03:12] clone1018: one way to find out your KDE version is to open a KDE app (dolphin, konsole, konqueror) and click about > about KDE. [03:13] ok one sec [03:13] 2.3.2 [03:15] should I update? === jacob_ is now known as Guest31280 [03:15] clone1018: KDE 2.3.2? That sounds ancient. [03:19] 4.3.2* [03:19] lol [03:21] Should I update? [03:22] how do i configure a new monitor? switched from crt to lcd, lcd is using old resolution from crt [03:22] 4.3.2 is what I installed last month..... [03:23] But., I didnt know 4.4 was officially released yet. [03:24] KDE 4.4 was released two weeks ago (time?), but you'd have to get it from the kubuntu backports ppa. It's not Ubuntu official, and won't be until Lucid. [03:25] So what do I do... [03:25] e_t_: Ah, ok. I knew it was slated for lucid, but didnt know they actualy released on backports... [03:26] Also been busy wth other things the last few weeks. [03:27] So... I just wait [03:29] If you want to upgrade to 4.4, type "sudo add-apt-repository ppa:kubuntu-ppa/backports" (no quotes), then do the update/upgrade cycle. [03:32] Nah, waiting on lucid for a variety of reasons. =) [03:33] do they make a wire to hook up for 2 machines, 1 w/windows, 1 w/linux? [03:34] da: you mean a crossover ethernet cable? [03:34] * Daughain chuckles. === john is now known as Guest60264 [03:34] I guess, [03:35] does that work? [03:35] There's no special equipment to connect a Windows and a Linux computer, it's all in the configuration. [03:36] And how does that work? [03:36] It depends on what you're planning to do. [03:39] Don't know what I want to do, I would like to have a new computer with windows XP, but I still like Linux. [03:41] The easiest way to network them is to setup static IP addresses (set 192.168.0.2 on one and 192.168.0.3 on the other). Then, you'll need to setup Samba on the Linux machine. That will give you the ability to share files. [03:43] Is Sanba a linux OS? [03:43] Samba is a file sharing server [03:43] No. It's a program that lets Linux share files with Windows. [03:44] Does Ubuntu have it on its OS? [03:44] You can install it easily. [03:45] okay, I'll go look. ty [03:51] I upgraded to the newest version [03:51] Still no UI [03:51] plasma still crashing if you start it manually? [03:53] yes [03:56] Hmm. I checked Google, but didn't find much helpful. The first step is always delete ~/.kde/share/config/*plasma*rc. Some people had it work for them and for some, it didn't. I don't know what to tell you. The last time I had a plasma issue like that, I ended up re-installing (because I usually messed up other stuff too). [03:56] i guess I will reinstall then [03:56] sigh [03:57] On the bright side (if there is one), I seem to learn a little more every time I reinstall. [03:57] clone1018: type startx [03:57] lol [03:57] x is started a long time ago [03:58] delete *authority files in your home folder [03:58] then type: sudo shutdown -r now [03:59] ... [03:59] ubuntuku: will that fix Plasma? [03:59] yes [04:00] delete .Xauthority [04:00] delete .ICEauthority [04:00] then type: sudo shutdown -r now [04:07] that didnt fix it [04:10] Anymore ideas? [04:10] If I enable desktop effects, there is a 2-3 second delay between when I click on an application on the taskbar and when it is restored to its previous size. Does anyone know why this could be? I've googled everything I could think of to no avail. [04:11] ok so i just rescanned my amarok database and now it is totally F***ed [04:11] what is the deal? [04:11] hmm that trick worked for me [04:12] Here is what i did in order. startx > delete those files and then exectuted the shutdown command you said [04:12] try remove ~/.kde/share/config [04:13] snarkfish: in what way is your database .... ? [04:14] ubuntuku: and then what [04:14] well i lied [04:14] i restarted amarok and now everything is back to where it belongs.. [04:14] wierd [04:15] "Have you tried turning it on and off again"... "No.... Oh hey it works now" [04:16] well after all the problems Im facing i think im due for alittle frustration [04:16] :) [04:16] hehe [04:16] all the problems you are facing? [04:16] I dont have a UI [04:16] why would rescanning cause all my music to dissapear [04:16] if you dont have a UI then why are you in here? [04:17] Anything Linux is buggy [04:17] Technically, the command line is a UI. You just lack a *G*UI. [04:17] lol [04:17] I am in here because I need my GUI back [04:17] lol [04:17] clone: reboot again sudo shutdown -r now [04:17] oh you have gui problems [04:17] well good luck dude [04:17] later all [04:18] Is there a rekonq 0.4 ppa? [04:21] No luck [04:21] http://pastebin.com/mdac5b3d [04:22] Thats whats in the Developer Information [04:24] My canon digital camera does not show up on the "recently plugged in" devices list when i plug it in, but i can go system settings -> advanced -> digital camera and its there. Its not mounted in dolphin, but i can go to camera:/ and there's a folder for it there but no pictures anywhere. gwenview does not see it. [04:24] worked fine with gnome. [04:24] this is with kde 4.4 [04:25] I guess [04:25] At this point, I'd file a bug report with KDE. If nothing else, the reporting process might turn up a similar bug and point you in the right direction. [04:25] I will just reinstall [04:25] e_t_: who, me? [04:25] Nome [04:26] jschall: not you, clone1018. Sorry, I should have specified. [04:26] clone: do u have plasma-desktop installed? [04:26] Maybe. I'm not sure at this point lol [04:26] should i just install gnome-volume-manager? [04:26] I did at first [04:26] But now its anyones guess [04:27] apt-cache policy plasma-desktop [04:27] jschall: Have you tried Digikam? Also, what model camera? [04:27] Installed: (none) [04:27] install it then [04:28] apt-get install plasma-desktop? [04:28] e_t_: powershot s3 is [04:28] yep [04:28] e_t_: no haven't tried digikam === Kage_Jittai is now known as Kage [04:28] e_t_: but i shouldn't need any extra programs for my freaking camera to work! [04:28] e_t_: i'll try it [04:28] If this works [04:28] I am going to freak out lol [04:29] jschall: If that model uses SD cards for storage, I'd probably just use a card reader. I suggested Digikam because it's a fairly complete photo program, and I have used it in the past with my XTi. [04:30] e_t_: don't have a card reader. [04:30] e_t_: trying digikam [04:43] Thanks so much for everyone who helped :D [04:52] how can i change the background and text colors when i send? [04:52] clone1018: What did it end up being? [04:55] Well after all that I dont know [04:55] lol [04:55] I know it was installed at first [04:56] But at the end it wasnt [04:56] Well, it's always the simple things. [04:57] Yeah, I rebuilt a package because the one in kubuntu wasn't new enough... I rebuilt it on a different machine, and freaked out, then did a --version, and realized what I did. [04:58] ssh is a wonderful tool, and a very frustrating at times. [05:45] anyone got any experience fixing resolution issues with ubuntu? [05:47] What kind of resolution issues? [05:48] only have 800x600 and 640:480 avail [05:48] Desktop/laptop? ATI/nVidia? Ubuntu version? [05:49] desktop emachines and ubuntu 9.10 [05:49] intel chipset [05:49] Kubuntu, right? [05:50] ubuntu and Intel® Graphics Media Accelerator 950 [05:50] What should the monitor display at? [05:51] 1024x768 [05:53] merong [05:53] 메 [05:53] 롱 [05:58] David_Hill: OK. First, we need to kill Xorg (sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop). Then, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg. Finally, sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start. [05:59] e_t_: That won't make a new xorg.conf any more [05:59] you want: sudo X -configure && sudo mv xorg.conf.new /etc/X11 instead [06:01] ok [06:01] Since the script you are attempting to invoke has been converted to an [06:01] Upstart job, you may also use the stop(8) utility, e.g. stop gdm [06:02] stop: Rejected send message, 1 matched rules; type="method_call", sender=":1.97" (uid=1000 pid=6512 comm="stop) interface="com.ubuntu.Upstart0_6.Job" member="Stop" error name="(unset)" requested_reply=0 destination="com.ubuntu.Upstart" (uid=0 pid=1 comm="/sbin/init")) [06:02] david@ubuntu-desktop:~/Downloads$ [06:02] David_HII: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [06:02] so do i need to do somthing different? [06:04] sudo stop gdm for stopping it, and sudo start gdm to start it [06:04] ok [06:04] Although you likely want kdm there if you're using Kubuntu [06:07] e_t_: give me the instructions one more time please === root is now known as Guest99213 [06:08] i need help i already have ubuntu with gnome since last year but i decide to install kde, everything fine but when i tried to connect with a wireless network it simply no conect i've tried with many networks but nothing it only waiting for connection please help (PD: sorry for my english, i was in gnome for obvious rason jeje :D) [06:09] Guest99213: genii says my fix won't work anymore. After a second look, s/he's probably right. [06:09] Guest99213: You can generate an xorg.conf by: logout to gdm ... choose "console login" as session type. Once logged into console, stop X: sudo stop gdm then generate a new xorg: sudo X -configure then copy it to where it should be: sudo mv xorg.conf.new /etc/X11 then restart gdm: sudo start gdm [06:10] ok ty [06:10] brb [06:11] agb: is the network you are trying to connect to password protected? Did you enter the password? [06:12] hey guys [06:13] im sorry to be asking that but i'm trying to add xinerama to an xorgserver X11 that has built without it [06:13] how can i do that ? am i obliged to recompile ? [06:14] yes i've written the password of each network but never connect there is something i didn't say: kde can connect with a cable network only the wireless have problems :S [06:16] agb: If you log into the Gnome desktop, does it work right? [06:19] Anyone know what version of Koffice will be in Kubuntu 10.04? Feature freeze is today and it's still at 2.0.2, while even Kubuntu 9.10 has Koffice 2.1... [06:19] yes in gnome there is no problem, i don't think that the problem is a driver because in kde the network manager find the wireless networks but even when i select one and in the new window i put the net info there is still waiting for connection and never connect [06:23] agb: Hmm. I researched your problem, and a few people on the forums suggest trying wicd (sudo apt-get install wicd). [06:24] i can install it in gnome and no problem? [06:25] so when i have installed it i log in kde [06:25] ? [06:25] wicd does not depend on any desktop. you could use it in kde, gnome, xfce... [06:25] ahhh [06:25] thanks!!!!!!! :D [06:26] agb: http://wicd.sourceforge.net/ [06:32] :D [06:33] ooo i was in kde jeje thanks e_t_ [06:38] hey guys, i currently have a server that is running fairly slow.
