[14:38] Can someone please tell me the output of "dpkg --search /usr/share/kde4/apps/kdm/themes/oxygen-air"? [14:38] I am running Kubuntu 9.10 + KDE 4.4 and apparently the kdm themes got lost... [14:42] The only dir I have is /usr/share/kde4/apps/kdm/themes/ethais... [14:44] And kdm refuses to start: ~"the design file /usr/share/kde4/apps/kdm/themes/oxygen-air cannot be opened". [14:50] devurandom, try /usr/share/kde4/apps/kdm/themes/default just to get kdm up and running [14:50] BluesKaj: How shall I "try" that? [14:50] symlink? [14:51] devurandom, in the terminal, sudo /usr/share/kde4/apps/kdm/themes/default restart [14:51] ??? [14:52] That directory does not even exist... And how shall a directory ever be executed? [14:52] devurandom: ctrl alt f1 for tty prompt [14:53] I know how to get to a VT... I just dont know how to get that theme directory... [14:53] Or how to get kdm to use a different theme. [14:53] devurandom: try startx [14:53] That will start an x session as the user I am logged in, not? [14:53] hello, it's a littlebit ot, but here my question: I installed eclipse, I installed tomcat, inside eclipse I installed these WebDevelopmentTools [14:53] devurandom, drop to a TTY , sudo /etc/init.d/kdm start [14:53] BluesKaj: That produces the abovementioned error message. [14:53] but under Preferences -> Server -> Runtime I cant select tomcat apache [14:53] BluesKaj: And kdm refuses to start... [14:54] well, i would worry about themes right , I'd try to get kdm working [14:55] wouldn't [14:55] BluesKaj: KDM does not start because there is no theme it can use... [14:55] There is simply *nothing*... [14:56] So it is apparently unable to show "nothing". [14:57] devurandom, there's a default theme [14:57] devurandom: does start x work [14:57] startx [14:57] BluesKaj: Named "default"? Then not. [14:58] robin0800: No, doesnt, complains that module "i810" is not available. [14:58] But kdm start at least shows me a dialog box, so it cant be that bad. [14:58] koala here. Running kde 4.4. Something weird has happened. I rebooted. Lost my pager on the bottom panel. Got it back. The thing is I have a right panel, before windows could be moved under, but when I maximized the window did not go under. Now windows can go under but when I maximise the windows use full screen. including under the right panel. How do I reset this? [15:06] I even reinstalled kdm, still nothing... === simon_ is now known as Guest28552 [15:09] devurandom: what's the problem [15:10] Peace-: kdm refuses to start, shows ~"the design file /usr/share/kde4/apps/kdm/themes/oxygen-air cannot be opened" in a dialog box right after x started. [15:10] mmm sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop [15:11] wow... tried ripping and my computer just slowed to the speed of smell... [15:11] Peace-: Further, there are no themes installed, besides "ethai". [15:11] need....more.............ram............................. [15:11] devurandom: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop [15:12] Yes, trying that right now. [15:12] Issue is that this tries to install network-manager, while I want wicd... [15:12] I'll accept for now and hope it brings the missing files... [15:12] Peace-: thanks for the help earlier, im out [15:13] SaiNumeri: bye [15:13] Peace-: The themes are still missing. [15:14] wai t a second [15:14] kdm start still complains. [15:14] i will search [15:15] Peace-: Thanks. [15:15] Maybe dpkg --search /usr/share/kde4/apps/kdm/themes/oxygen-air can already help me.

[15:22] is installed [15:22] o wow [15:22] thinkin [15:24] trying to reinstall it now... [15:25] devurandom, about the network manager , you can install wicd and when doing so nm will be disabled [15:25] Yes, did that. Thanks for the tip anyway. :) [15:25] Peace-: I think it's a bug in some package... [15:25] good [15:25] So probably a dev has to deal with it. [15:25] devurandom: well i think it's not [15:26] How come? :) [15:26] Peace-: What did dpkg --search say whom /usr/share.../oxygen-air belongs to?

[19:56] I'm on the one released last year [19:56] ubuntu: karmic (9.10) [19:56] Thanks [19:56] Wait [19:56] 9 means 2009 and 10 means october [19:56] next one will be 10.4 [19:56] You are using Ubuntu 9.10 [19:56] - the Karmic Koala - released in October 2009 and supported until April 2011. [19:56] [19:56] This ? [19:56] ubuntu: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [19:56] Oh i see [19:56] yep [19:56] When ? will it be [19:56] binarylooks: ah ok [19:57] ubuntu: i like living on the edge. am using a development version of 10.4 [19:57] !seen tpearson [19:57] I have no seen command [19:57] hhhhhhhh [19:57] hmm, hey guys, anybody know how to reach tpearson? [19:57] What does it means supported untill 2011 ? [19:57] Do i have to install the new one then or whats that really [19:58] ubuntu: it means here will be security updates for it, there is a nice explanation on the wiki. let me look [19:58] ubuntu, it means updates will be made by cononical until 2011 [19:58] Yeah i got it now :) [19:59] All right, So what's the difference between RED HAT Ubuntu and Mandriva ? I'm a beginner [19:59] Anyone know what version of kde is supposed to be bundled with 10.04? [19:59] poseidon: whatever will be out when lucid releases [19:59] poseidon: probably 4.4.2 [19:59] k, thanks [19:59] poseidon: then there will be updates during the lucid lifecycle [20:00] I'm going to go ahead and install the alpha 3 build now :) [20:00] ubuntu: the differences become less every year. [20:00] Why is that ? [20:00] I mean the same with windows these days ! [20:00] ubuntu: its mostly behind the scenes differences and differences in versions of software that ships with releases [20:01] everybody uses gnome or kde so the desktop is kind of fixed. some distros add their own stuff like the ubuntu music store or things like that [20:01] ubuntu: redhat uses older versions of software and is more aiming at enterprises [20:02] nighttrid3r: What's ubuntu for really ? i mean it's what i don't get it [20:03] Why ubuntu is called Kubuntu ? I mean its the same OS or ? is it / [20:04] ubuntu = gnome desktop kubuntu = same with KDE desktop [20:04] And WHATS KDE ? then [20:04] its a desktop [20:05] It's like Aero theme in Vista or ? [20:05] no, its what you see on your screen, menu's windows and icons [20:05] Are the ubuntu's command woth using it ? [20:05] ubuntu: think of KDE as explore.exe + AERO [20:05] Yeah the complete desktop [20:06] Yeah good KAGE, now i got that :) [20:06] Thanks :) [20:06] That was quick and nice explaning there [20:07] well... technically, applications that come like KDE, could be related to applications that come with windows... like paint, minesweeper, notepad, etc [20:07] Yeah [20:08] though, the important thing to know, is KDE is the background, the thing that puts the title bar on windows, the panel, etc... [20:08] SO what exactly is the different between Kubuntu, Just the KDE ? [20:08] ubuntu: you can think of ubuntu as a core (I.E. system software) like the kernel, package manager, etc [20:09] KDE runs ontop of the ubuntu core [20:09] Aha [20:09] making it kubuntu [20:09] Oh ! [20:09] while normal ubuntu uses Gnome (a alternative to KDE) [20:09] Hey, DOes anyone knows which application runs dreambox ? cause i heard its on Linux [20:10] whats dreambox? [20:10] Gnome i know where that thing is ! :$ (i'm new to it so) [20:10] Dreambox ? the satalite receiever based on Linux OS ! [20:10] Its a. CCAM [20:10] Based ! so for Card sharing [20:11] ubuntu: most likely, if its custom hardware, they have a custom version of Linux supporting it [20:11] Yeah that's right [20:11] But i mean how do they share all those channels ? really [20:11] By setting up a server [20:11] channels? [20:11] IDK... [20:12] this channel is for kubuntu support [20:12] oopss [20:12] Sorry :) [20:12] I don't even know what a dreambox is, much less what it does and how it works [20:12] haha okay :) [20:12] I am not on Kbuntu so :$ [20:14] Are there any third party softwares ? for it or ? [20:15] for what? [20:15] Only those in updates and software center [20:15] I mean any kinda [20:15] ... [20:15] Ahhh [20:16] Can i install Adobe Photoshop CS4 on this ? the one i used to use on Windows ? [20:17] ubuntu: there is a program called wine that allows you to run some windows programs on Linux. I think all versions of Ps work with it [20:17] Yeah actually i just downloaded it today :) [20:17] Someone told me here [20:17] so [20:17] :) [20:18] What's the best Windows Live Messenger ? for ubuntu ? Any help on that [20:18] If your using kubuntu, use kopete. If your using ubuntu, use pidgin [20:19] Hi, how can i do knetworkmanager starts again in system startup? [20:19] ubuntu: according to the wine website, Ps CS4 probably won't work. [20:19] gimp is a good alternative [20:20] however, there is a alternative program, called GIMP, which while many people don't think its as good as Ps, a lot of other people do like it. [20:20] and it is free [20:20] and open source [20:20] its not as good as ps [20:20] but as good as you can get i think for free [20:21] Back [20:21] Thanks [20:21] Is it in there software center ? [20:21] yes it is [20:21] Lemme see [20:21] tj [20:21] tj___: IMO, something being better or worst is a matter of opinion. [20:21] hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh [20:21] YEah [20:22] kage: that is true [20:22] It's GNU paint ? [20:22] this ? === WindPower_ is now known as WindPower [20:22] Personally, I think 40% or so of people that don't like GIMP, is most likely because they are not use to it, and are more familiar with Ps [20:22] Yes Kage i guess you are right, This seems MSPAINT ! [20:23] ubuntu: GNU paint is not the same as GIMP [20:23] MSPAINT works good under wine too [20:23] lol [20:23] Oh actually its already installed ! [20:23] :$ [20:23] all those trash programs that come with windows works fine on wine [20:23] someone knows how to start knetworkmanager in system startup again? [20:23] Oh under wine ! really [20:24] Grillost: you need to add it to the startup session [20:24] now kage, you have to admit, there are SOME good programs for windows. especially gamming. [20:24] haha well who's the one for support here ? [20:24] KAGE ? you ? [20:25] ubuntu: nobody is paid for support here... we all just help with what we can [20:25] Oh that's nice of you all ! :) [20:25] tj___: no doubt. Though I have a moral obligation to only use open source software. [20:26] Hey, Is it true Linux is always been used for hacking purpose ? [20:26] :) [20:26] Doesnt really seem ! [20:26] ubuntu: first... change your nick name... type: /nick [20:26] Okay wait === ubuntu is now known as Ahmed [20:27] Now ? [20:27] :) [20:27] secondly, hacking is a long tradition of Linux... Linux was created by hackers, for hackers. Though you are most likely confused on what a hacker is. === Ahmed is now known as Guest52590 [20:27] a hacker is someone that is skilled in computers (basically) [20:27] Oh ! :) [20:27] be ethical === stephen is now known as Guest99927 [20:28] How can i set my name I AM UBUNTU ! [20:28] Hi, my wifi does not work in kubuntu 9.10, it's realtek 8192 on a samsung n220 [20:28] hey all [20:28] what you are most likely, talking about, is what called a "cracker". Person who cracks passwords, encryptions, etc [20:28] guest52590, are you using a live cd? [20:28] Guest52590: with /nick === Guest52590 is now known as AhmedBH [20:28] Yeah [20:28] I see [20:29] :) [20:29] how can i get my alsa from mono to stero [20:29] So whats so especial here in this ubuntu really that you can be so much genius at ! Oh a hacker [20:29] :) [20:29] and yes... many crackers do use Linux, mainly for the amount of control it gives you [20:30] Like how, May i know how to start :) [20:30] itscrimetime: kmixer? [20:30] i tried kmixer [20:30] AhmedBH: you want to become a cracker? [20:30] it only shows master as mono [20:30] there is only three ways to get the kind of control you get with linux in windows, HACK,CRACK, and lots of money. [20:30] Yeah i think so :) but who is there to help me anyways [20:31] HUH HUH ! [20:31] Kage: Are you serious ? [20:31] bye [20:32] AhmedBH: I will not help you become a cracker... [20:32] I mean i don't know a thing about it :) I even just installed This thing today i am talking to you guys on [20:32] Oh [20:32] :) [20:32] hi all [20:32] I mean at least give me a start :) [20:32] Hi ! [20:32] i have a plasmoid that is in source, how do i compile it now? And what do i need to have installed for this [20:33] AhmedBH: if you want to become more proficient in GNU/Linux, I suggest you start reading tutorials [20:33] lovre: type ./configure in its directory [20:33] then make && sudo make install [20:33] umm :) [20:34] hey AhmedBH, you should learn html and some programming. that will give you a start. [20:34] I mean I am good at windows ! Anyone knows that [20:34] Yeah HTML thats it Tj [20:35] Does keylogger works on linux ? [20:35] nope [20:35] tj___: IMO its easier and more useful to learn your way around a command prompt before you start learning programming [20:35] Cause even tho WIndows 7 is been infected by this thing [20:35] I got a mailbox there are 10,000 emails and couting [20:35] yes it is [20:35] SO just !! Its working awesome [20:35] :) [20:35] AhmedBH: you could write a keylogger for Linux, though to be effective it would most likely have to run in the kernel, which requires a lot of permissions to install [20:36] Oh [20:36] i am asuming that if you are learning programming, you already know your way around the terminal. [20:36] tj___: I highly doubt he does [20:36] i know [20:36] Yeah but i mean i'm here to see what's the difference between Windows And Linux :) (Especially Ubuntu) [20:36] umm...Something wrong ? [20:36] Kage: it says: bash: ./configure: No such file or directory [20:37] AhmedBH: Linux is better.:P [20:37] lovre: ok, just try typing make [20:37] lovre: not all programs need to be configured [20:37] Kage: make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop. [20:37] Kage: maybe im in the wrong folder... i dont know [20:37] lovre: ... [20:37] maybe [20:37] Kage: or maybe i dont have compilers installed... [20:37] Daughain: Umm reason ? [20:37] lovre, try config first, then make [20:38] tj___: he said [15:36] Kage: it says: bash: ./configure: No such file or directory [20:38] or configure [20:38] AhmedBH: Cost is a major factor.. Ability to do what you please with the code is another. [20:38] AhmedBH: Less crap using resources. I charted a 40F core temp drop simply by switching from windows to Jaunty. [20:39] Kage: it is this that im trying to inastall, maybe you can take a look? http://kde-look.org/content/show.php/Eventlist?content=107779 [20:39] Daughain: That's nice explaning ! [20:39] I can customize a system to meet my needs much easier with linux, and am now completely legal software on all systems. [20:39] AhmedBH: I suggest you start here: http://gd.tuwien.ac.at/linuxcommand.org/learning_the_shell.php [20:39] AhmedBH: *Then* we get into the flexibility of the OS...And, the fact that it effectivly doesnt get virus'..... [20:39] AhmedBH: Ya, that first fact alone blew my mind. [20:39] Windows, 7 isn't bad as XP and Vista is, (Only if you really know how to USE it) But like 80% are infected with some types of viruses and just tonns of crap, I mean [20:40] lovre: do you have KDE 4.3? [20:40] I am an old user on Vista [20:40] oh , plasmoids, [20:40] AhmedBH: Win7 starter crashed the 1st day OOB.......I dont consider it any improvement. [20:40] Kage: lemme see [20:40] Kage: yes, 4.3.2 [20:40] hahahaha [20:40] Really ? [20:40] GOD [20:40] what's going on with the upgrades? [20:40] * Daughain nods. [20:40] i've upgraded, totally lost my xserver so decided on a clean install [20:40] Hey NIce [20:40] Kage [20:41] :) [20:41] AhmedBH: Join #Kubuntu-offtopic if ya wanna chat about this some more. [20:41] Nice thing to start really [20:41] Off topic ? whats that for [20:41] Topics like this, which dont involve discussions of kubuntu problems.=) [20:41] downloaded 9.10 and installed it, ran updates and now it won't even boot up [20:41] i get "udevadm trigger not permitted while udev unconfigured" [20:42] "cannot open /dev/mem" [20:42] HOw to get to another rooms such as Kbuntu offtopic ? [20:42] By myself ? [20:42] is kubuntu broke? [20:42] AhmedBH: /join #channel [20:42] nope kubuntu is not broke [20:42] pandamonium: did you restart before the update was finished by chance? [20:43] well the update manager told me it was all done [20:43] and then the whole system hung [20:43] i had to hard reboot [20:43] what kind of computer do you have pandamonium? [20:43] meh.... what type of hardware are you on? [20:44] a smashed to bits one if it doesn't stop annoying me [20:44] is it an old one? [20:44] it's a ... asus k8 nvidia chipset [20:44] with a athlon 64 [20:44] 1.5gb of ram [20:44] its 64bit? [20:45] it will be 640 bit by the time i'm finished with it [20:45] but yeah [20:45] pandamonium: are you trying to install the 32bit version, or 64bit version of 9.10? [20:45] 64 bit [20:45] and it was a clean install [20:46] because the previous upgrade lost my xserver on reboot [20:46] pandamonium: I would maybe try the 32bit, and see if you get the same issue... [20:46] try the 32 pandamonium? just for kicks . [20:46] i have problems with 64 on mine [20:46] tj___: we think a like... [20:46] and i have no problems with 32 [20:46] hmmmm, everything was fine when i was on the .04 [20:46] i have noticed that kage [20:46] :P [20:46] wierd [20:46] yeah, it is [20:47] that means downloading another cd image [20:47] pandamonium: yeah [20:47] yes it does [20:47] that means *another* 5 minutes wait [20:47] [20:48] * pandamonium wonders what the point of 64 bit processors is [20:48] you can download a 700MB ISO in 5 mins :\ [20:48] pandamonium: to extend the length of time_t [20:48] yeah, got a 16Mb/s connection [20:48] o_O [20:48] * Kage steals pandamonium's internet connection and hides it [20:49] takes me about 15 to 20 mins [20:49] wow [20:49] wish i could do it 5 [20:49] takes me... like.... 2-3 hours :( [20:49] 2 to 3 hrs [20:50] i hope its dial up [20:50] DSL... [20:50] i would be switching to cable [20:50] crikey! you being traffic managed? [20:51] well... if I maintain my max download speed, I could download the image in 1.3 hours [20:51] but a lot of times, it jumps between 50% and 100% of my max download speed [20:51] mine seems quite steady [20:52] it's max 24Mb/s but i was on about 19-20 until i moved half a mile further from the exchange [20:52] I really should look into changing ISPs [20:53] you know what, linux has changed little since i first dabbled some 10-12 years ago [20:53] I have had this one for like, 15 years [20:53] pandamonium: ummm... your kidding right? [20:53] it still frustrates the living daylights out of me [20:53] oh, lol [20:53] then again so does the WinDOS [20:54] All software is made by humans. Humans suck. Thus all software sucks. [20:54] why can't we all just use CP/M and flashing green block cursors? [20:54] >_> [20:55] ah... pr0n... i forgot that [20:55] pandamonium: we could go back to ascii porn :P [20:55] we can, just pull out one them old apple computers from way back [20:55] apple one, i think [20:55] 1.7MB/s i'm downloading at [20:56] apple lisa [20:56] <|john|> hello all [20:56] pandamonium: thats more then 10 times faster then mine...

[20:58] least in my experiance it is [20:58] well... £18 is not that far from $30 [20:59] only about 10% cheaper [20:59] but... still... its 10% cheaper, and >10 times faster [20:59] well with line rental mine is almost £30 which is about $45 or so [21:00] its $45 [21:00] yeah [21:00] * Kage <3 Google [21:00] what is wimminz? pandamonium. cant help but wonder [21:01] women ;) [21:01] ahhh [21:01] http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=wimminz [21:02] hahah i can't believe it's been put on there [21:02] lol === |john| is now known as Colonel_Panic [21:03] but yeah, it's either a) females who're destined to be housewives or b) those feministy types [21:03] it takes almost as long to burn as it does to download [21:03] IMO, that is sexist :P BBL [21:04] yeah it is rather === Colonel_Panic is now known as manga_lloyd [21:04] * netdaemon needs to get a few more flash drives so he stops burning discs....

[22:14] excuse my poor spelling. [22:17] judgen: this one? [22:17] !kde3 [22:17] Kubuntu 8.04 ships with KDE3 and full support. Jaunty does not include KDE3 but a remix install CD can be obtained at https://wiki.kubuntu.org/Kubuntu/Kde3/Jaunty . This is not officially supported. Support, instructions and ways to contribute can be found on the wiki page [22:19] WaltzingAlong: yes, but i suppose they have a irc channel? [22:21] judgen: check the link. i think support is via the mailing list [22:23] ok [22:25] 8.04 was hardy? [22:25] Hi [22:25] :) [22:26] judgen: yeah [22:33] updates,updates and more updates , cheese [22:33] Where in the menu's do I add a printer K > Computer > System Settings > Printer Configuration shows what I have installed but doesn't have an option to add another.. I know I can "http://localhost:631" but I want to figure out the menu structure first. [22:41] looking for some sound advice about boxee [22:48] My sound stopped working... how odd. [22:49] @judgen: happens to me all the time. tried 'sudo alsa force-reload'? [22:50] axiom: still nothing [22:51] kubuntu does not use pulseaudio, right? [22:51] god I don't know [22:52] sound is making me sad right now [22:52] not sure I am in a position to help you [22:52] I've been told both things [22:54] this may help you, though it is really outdated http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=205449 === ncc1701 is now known as seawolf [22:56] jkkj [22:57] why does pidgin not show up in the indicator applet in kubuntu 9.10 [22:57] and if gnome is installed, it also gets the same problem [22:57] but if i installed ubuntu from scratch and then installed KDE it would probably work [22:59] racecar56: indicator applet? I know the one from kubuntu lucid only, where it's in the system tray. [22:59] I have not installed pidgin, but it shows kopete in there. [22:59] blueyed: it also can call it indicator display [23:00] where is it? in the panel? [23:00] blueyed: for me it's just to the left of the clock, this install is nearly default [23:00] blueyed: this install is rather new because i was getting sick of the problem [23:00] blueyed: but the new install didn't help :/ [23:00] ok, then I just don't have it, nor know what you mean. sry. [23:03] still no luck with the sound... [23:03] judgen: did you try to see if its not muted [23:06] i just left because i was trying to close the buddy list on pidgin but i wasn't supposed to do that, because it would close pidgin instead of going into the indicator applet [23:06] how annoying [23:06] ilumi: Olldy enough, when i unmuted the mic channel, it started to work.
