[00:07] <mudassar> hello people how can I install linux from an iso with multiple parts like linux_1of7.iso, linux_2of7.iso ......... upto 7 as a guest OS in xen ??
[00:22] <James147> mudassar: multiple iso? what distrubution are you trying to install?
[00:23] <mudassar> actually it is CentOS 5.4 64bit
[00:23] <mudassar> i think it is a DVD but with chunks in 7 isos
[00:25] <James147> mudassar: looked at their site, all the isos are under 700mb.. indicates a cd
[00:26] <James147> mudassar: either way, this is the kubuntu support channel, try #centos :)
[00:26] <mudassar> no one is answering there
[00:27] <Dontupanic> Hi All
[00:27] <James147> mudassar: my `guess` would be htats a multiple cd install, but i dont know since i dont know that distrbution
[00:28] <maco> mudassar: its a multi-cd install
[00:28] <Dontupanic> what is the defalt vitural machine manager in kubuntu?
[00:28] <maco> mudassar: start installing from cd 1, then itll eventually ask you for cd 2 etc.
[00:28] <maco> Dontupanic: there is no default...
[00:29] <mudassar> i have to install it in xen and using ssh on a remote machine
[00:29] <maco> Dontupanic: you can use kvm-qemu but i dont think its very friendly. virtualbox is probably easier
[00:29] <maco> mudassar: good luck
[00:29] <mudassar> :)
[00:30] <Dontupanic> I know in gnome a good choice is virt-manager
[00:31] <James147> Dontupanic: virtualbox is a nice vm program
[00:31] <Dontupanic> true
[00:32] <Dontupanic> But I was hoping to play around with KVM
[00:33] <Dontupanic> and a machine manager would take the edge off
[00:34] <James147> Dontupanic: cound try http://www.rpdev.net/home/kemu
[00:35] <Dontupanic> James147: thank you I will
[00:39] <jorge_> hi
[00:39] <jorge_> hola
[00:51] <elisionista> I have somehow deactivated my soud card. Can someone tell me how to activate it?
[00:52] <elisionista> it's an HDA Intel (ALC662 rev1 Analog)
[00:53] <James147> elisionista: check the volumes in kmix (open the mixer, dont just turn up the default channel)
[00:53] <elisionista> mixer don't open
[00:54] <elisionista> already tried that
[00:54] <elisionista> the card in multimedia configuration panel apears as deactivated
[00:55] <elisionista> wont let me open KMix
[00:56] <jhutchins> elisionista: Does alsamixer run in console?  Is alsa running?  Are you in the audio goup?  Is the correct module loading?  Is pulseaudio enabled?
[00:57] <elisionista> jhutchins: how do I know if alsamixer runs? wich command?
[00:57] <jhutchins> elisionista: alsamixer
[00:58] <jhutchins> elisionista: cat /dev/urandom > /dev/dsp
[00:59] <elisionista> alsamixer runs in terminal
[00:59] <jhutchins> (Ctrl-C to stop)
[00:59] <jhutchins> elisionista: Excellent.
[00:59] <jhutchins> elisionista: Base sound system is fine then.  You're just dealing with the GUI.
[01:00] <jhutchins> elisionista: You may need to restart ?dm from the console.  As always with a graphical program, try running it from an xterm to see what error it gives you.
[01:00] <jhutchins> elisionista: For kmix that is.
[01:00] <jhutchins> elisionista: you may need to go into kdesu kcontrol and check the sound settings there.
[01:02] <elisionista> the problem is that I deactivated the sound car acidentely, when I do so the SO warn me about it. But with my very limited knoleges I can't reactivat it
[01:03] <elisionista> is there a way to send printscreens from IRC?
[01:03] <elisionista> I can show you the problem
[01:10] <elisionista> in the browser soud works fine
[01:10] <elisionista> in dragon player and amarok doesn't work
[01:13] <bazhang> !imagebin
[01:18] <Jef91> Anyone know how I can stop knetworkmanager from loading on startup?
[01:21] <elisionista> here goes the image to see if anyone can help me - http://imagebin.org/92443
[01:21] <elisionista> think this is the problem
[01:26] <elisionista> forget to translet the textbox to you guys... it says: this device is not available at the moment (or its disconnected or its controler isn't loaded)
[01:27] <elisionista> *translate
[01:30] <elisionista> no one?!!
[01:42] <mudassar> how to mount multiple iso's on a single mount point ?
[02:00] <K350> What keycombination - like ctrl+alt+... - should one use to add with unicode hex? ie keycomb1+keycomb2+210
[02:07] <elisionista> already managed to work around my sound card issue
[02:07] <elisionista> I have downloaded and compiled the realtek drivers
[02:07] <elisionista> it's working fine now
[02:08] <elisionista> thank for everyone that tried to help

[03:13] <James147> penocio: for grub2 run "sudo update-grub"
[03:14] <James147> penocio: grub 1 you need to manually edit /boot/grub/menu.list
[03:14] <penocio> James147:  how can i check which grub i have?
[03:14] <mcurran> Anyone know the command for "Sort Desktop Icons (By Type)" so I can create a startup script which lines up my icons?
[03:15] <mcurran> Or know of a log I could check when i do it manually.
[03:17] <James147> penocio: mm, not sure (should tell you when you boot, grub 2 has a version number of 1.9x)  if you installed karmic (not upgraded) then you should be on grub2
[03:17] <James147> >.>

[05:03] <kimmo> hello dudes
[05:05] <kimmo> how can i change to quakenet server?
[05:05] <demism> What browser do you guys use?
[05:05] <kimmo> i use chrome
[05:06] <kimmo> its the best
[05:06] <demism> kimmo no need to start a browser war, I was just curious. Instead of saying it's the best could you tell me why you think it's the best?
[05:07] <kimmo> ok then
[05:07] <Lewiis> the new version of Firefox is going to seperate plugins into different processes so if a plugin crashes it doesn't take the browser with it
[05:07] <Lewiis> I understand Chrome already does this for all its tabs which is quite cool
[05:08] <Lewiis> it means that if a tab crashes the browser keeps running and you can continue working
[05:08] <demism> that's neat
[05:08] <Lewiis> browsers are getting smarter!
[05:08] <Lewiis> browsers are getting smarter!
[05:08] <Lewiis> oops
[05:08] <FloodBotK3> Lewiis: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[05:08] <Lewiis> I personally use Firefox
[05:08] <demism> lol, you mean programmer's are getting smarter?
[05:08] <kimmo> but i hear somethin about the new explorer is goig to use html5, am i right?
[05:08] <Lewiis> yeah i suppose so
[05:09] <Lewiis> Chrome uses html5 already
[05:09] <Lewiis> and the new versions of firefox will too
[05:09] <Lewiis> i really didn't like Konquerer which came with kubuntu
[05:09] <demism> afaic chrome is already doing it... when mozilla starts, chrome will be ahead in that sense too.
[05:10] <demism> yeah a lot of sites are glitchy in konqueror
[05:15] <demism> is chrome in a repo?
[05:16] <kimmo> do you know is there better support for older nvidia cards in new 10.04 ubuntu. i am so waitin it
[05:17] <kimmo> cant get full resolution now
[05:17] <Lewiis> you can't apt-get install chrome so I'm not sure
[05:17] <Lewiis> @kimmo what type of video card do you have?
[05:18] <Lewiis> do you use the drivers that came with kubuntu or nvidia's ones?
[05:18] <kimmo> yeah, i use the restrict drivers
[05:19] <kimmo> sorry, not nvidia, radeon
[05:20] <Lewiis> does anyone prefer any torrent clients over KTorrent?
[05:20] <Lewiis> k
[05:20] <Lewiis> I'm finding KTorrent alright but I was quite used to utorrent
[05:21] <kimmo> i use qbittorrent
[05:23] <Lewiis> that looks nice, does it integrate with KDE?  also does it support IP Filtering?

[07:10] <brianl123> vivek: i didn't, but i had installed kubuntu long ago and it was working fine until today, so i suspect that's not the problem
[07:11] <brianl123> upon running "sudo fdisk -l", my /dev/sda1 has about 100 times as many blocks as my other partitions, which is suspicious...
[07:11] <vivek> brianl123:oh ok!

[09:22] <asma> Hello, Does the french channel of kubuntu exist?
[09:22] <iconmefisto> !fr | asma
[09:23] <asma> thanks :)
[09:38] <Baal> my computer crashed during 10.04 beta 2 upgrade now i can't login
[09:39] <Baal> getting kdeinit error
[09:39] <iconmefisto_> Baal: have you tried booting recovery mode?
[09:40] <Baal> how do i do that? it doesnt' offer the menu like it usually does after a crash
[09:41] <iconmefisto_> Baal: do you see the grub menu when the computer starts up?
[09:41] <Baal> it shows loading grub but then it scrolls some text and goes to login screen
[09:42] <Baal> it does say it cant' mount /dev
[09:42] <iconmefisto_> Baal: to see the grub menu, press and hold down shift key, then choose recovery mode in grub menu
[09:42] <Baal> at the login screen?
[09:43] <iconmefisto_> Baal: you've got to hold down shift when grub is loading, when the computer first starts up (before boot process begins)
[09:43] <Baal> ok thanks i will try that
[09:43] <iconmefisto_> Baal: once you've booted, go to shell with networking and login
[09:44] <iconmefisto_> Baal: then try upgrading to complete what was interrupted when the last upgrade crashed
[09:45] <Baal> i've tried that but it doesn't work it errors out with error status 127
[09:45] <Baal> i got into recovery mode
[09:46] <Baal> i used sudo apt-get upgrade in console cause i could login into the console from login screen
[09:46] <Baal> should i try the cleanup option
[09:48] <iconmefisto_> cleanup?
[09:48] <iconmefisto_> try sudo apt-get -f install
[09:48] <iconmefisto_> if that doesn't fix things (probably won't) try: sudo dpkg --configure -a
[09:49] <Baal> tried both of those already
[09:50] <Baal> says unmet dependancies to libsexy2 and another one lib file but when i try to install it errors out again
[09:50] <Baal> i meant the dpkg not cleaunup sorry
[09:51] <iconmefisto_> Baal: try removing the problem packages, do the dpkg command to hopefully fix apt, then install those packages again
[09:53] <Baal> sudo apt-get remove libsexy2 to fails with error status 127
[09:53] <Baal> errors encountered: apt
[09:54] <Baal> can i reinstall apt?
[09:55] <iconmefisto_> I don't think that would help. and it probably won't work since apt is in this state and won't let you install things without the same errors. but you could try if you like
[09:55] <Baal> no i don't want to waste my time if there are other options
[09:57] <iconmefisto_> dpkg -r libsexy2  to remove?
[09:57] <Baal> let me give it a try
[10:01] <Baal> ignoring request to remove libsexy2, only config files of which are on the system
[10:09] <iconmefisto_> Baal: dpkg -r --force-remove-reinstreq libsexy2
[10:09] <Baal> ok
[10:12] <Baal> that gave the same error but when i tried dpkg -P libsexy2 it told me that it could not remove it because notification-daemon needed it
[10:13] <iconmefisto_> Baal: try the purge command with the force option
[10:15] <Baal> nope
[10:16] <iconmefisto_> Baal: have you tried getting help in #ubuntu+1 lucid channel?
[10:16] <Baal> no but i can
[10:16] <iconmefisto_> probably someone there with more knowledge than me
[10:17] <Baal> thanks anyway

[15:23] <WaltzingAlong> vivek: what do you mean with 'everything is gone'?
[15:24] <vivek> the screen got blacked out and then after a long time when it did not come i think maybe a reboot would help
[15:25] <vivek> so I rebooted, which took me again to the login screen and there I could not enter my passwrod to login again
[15:25] <vivek> even the mouse was not moving
[15:25] <vivek> so i tried entering the recovery mode
[15:26] <vivek> and there i was prompted for my username and pwd .. which i gave in but then i understand that it is only the console command that would help me there and nothing else.. and i dont know any
[15:26] <vivek> so can someone help
[15:26] <WaltzingAlong> well not sure what is broken at this point. could reconfigure x, could check over some logs
[15:27] <WaltzingAlong> could you log in through the gui to another user account?
[15:27] <vivek> i have only one user account
[15:28] <sysffc14> anyone can give some help with running a triple monitor setup
[15:35] <vivek> looks like no one knows
[15:37] <iconmefisto> vivek: so what is the problem? when you get to the login screen, keyboard and mouse don't respond?
[15:39] <shadeslayer> vivek: which graphics card? and what drivers?
[15:42] <vivek> iconmefisto: shadeslayer: I used the xkill operation and clicked on the panel,and then everything disappeared.The screen got blacked out and then after a long time when it did not come back I thought maybe a reboot would help,so I rebooted, which took me again to the login screen and there I could not enter my password to login again,even the mouse was not moving.So i tried entering the recovery mode by pressing escape while the system was booting up,and
[15:42] <vivek>  there i was prompted for my username and pwd ,which i gave in but then i understand that it would only be the console commands that would help me there and nothing else.. and i dont know any..so can someone please help
[15:45] <vivek> iconmefisto:anysolution
[15:49] <shadeslayer> vivek: you need to tell me which graphics card you are using
[15:49] <shadeslayer> vivek: and which display driver...
[15:50] <vivek> shadeslayer: The graphics card was that which came inbuilt with the computer .. the intel x88 something and as far as the display drivers were concerned there were none shown in the hardware driver sections
[15:51] <shadeslayer> vivek: ok,so you probably have the intel graphics cards..
[15:52] <shadeslayer> vivek: and you cant type or anything in the login window ( KDM that is )
[15:52] <vivek> yeah probably shadeslayer:.. i got a reply from the forum asking me to type startx at the command prompt of recovery mode
[15:52] <xjkx> i'm thinking about to buy an multifunctional hp f4480, lets guess i bought it, what would be the first steps to have it working ? so long no using printers, is the most common way still installing cups ? is there a better way ? does linux support this hp 4480 ? will scanner/printer/every function work ? my google searches were poor on this
[15:52] <shadeslayer> !printers | xjkx
[15:53] <shadeslayer> vivek: yes you can try that...
[15:53] <xjkx> ty
[15:53] <iconmefisto> xjkx: probably just plug it in and boot up. that's been my experience with all hp printers
[15:53] <vivek> ok shadeslayer: will do that and come back
[15:53] <shadeslayer> vivek: but! i would suggest that you boot into recovery and click ok resume
[15:53] <shadeslayer> instead of the drop to shell option
[15:53] <xjkx> iconmefisto: "and boot up", you mean you didn't have to configure ? automatically detected ?
[15:54] <vivek> how do i do that shadeslayer:
[15:54] <iconmefisto> xjkx: exactly
[15:54] <mauri> i've just buyed scanner cannon lite 100 but  it seems not supported by sane. Sameone can help me to get it work?
[15:54] <xjkx> iconmefisto: interesting. but its not a multifunctional is it ?
[15:54] <vivek> shadeslayer: by the way what does startx intend to do
[15:55] <shadeslayer> vivek: it starts X
[15:55] <WaltzingAlong> vivek: starts X server; could also try startkde instead
[15:55] <iconmefisto> xjkx: the ones I've used are printer/scanner
[15:56] <vivek> but i have KDE installed .. i mean kubuntu uses KDE so why should i type startx shadeslayer: WaltzingAlong:
[15:56] <shadeslayer> !X | vivek
[15:56] <wertwertgfhjrer> what files contain the selectable window or desktop managers during login?
[15:56] <shadeslayer> vivek: hehe... X is everything related to graphics... KDE runs on top of X
[15:56] <shadeslayer> wertwertgfhjrer: probably kdmrc for KDM
[15:56] <vivek> so startx should help me out i guess
[15:57] <wertwertgfhjrer> shadeslayer, do you know which file it could be for ubuntu, too?
[15:57] <vivek> guys dont go anywhere.. will reboot without the cd , will use startx and come back... please hold on..:-)
[15:57] <shadeslayer> wertwertgfhjrer: um.. maybe gdmrc
[15:58] <uikxx> hallo.. skype mic bug anyone..?
[15:58] <mauri> ho comprato uno scanner canon lide100 ma non è supporrtato da xane...si puo fare qualceh cosa?
[16:00] <Frrx> uikxxx
[16:00] <Frrx> i cant use skype mic
[16:01] <vivek> guys am back
[16:01] <supermagnum> hello, when i type kismet, nothing happens.. i get a error message :/usr/bin/kismet: No such file or directory
[16:01] <vivek> and yes i never had to use startx shadeslayer:.. i rebooted and it just worked .. dont know how and why .. but it is back
[16:02] <supermagnum> kismet is in the  /usr/bin/ directory
[16:02] <vivek> thanks shadeslayer: by the way
[16:03] <shadeslayer> np
[16:04] <fero> Hello guys I use k9.10 and I have a problem in customizing pidgin gtk ui. It seems that .purple/gtkrc-2.0 is read and ~/.gtkrc-2.0 is read and ~/.gtkrc-2.0-kde4 is read , but no one of them updates pidgin presentation.... any idea ?
[16:09] <xjkx> http://hplipopensource.com/hplip-web/models/deskjet_aio/deskjet_f4400_series.html (PC initiated copy = No) do you know what it means ?
[16:15] <supermagnum> whos responsible for the repositories  ?
[16:16] <iconmefisto> xjkx: I think it means the software doesn't have a copy function that scans a document and prints it in one step (like a photocopier)
[16:16] <xjkx> thats sad
[16:18] <xjkx> iconmefisto: thanks
[16:18] <WaltzingAlong> xjkx: and pc init, as in there is not a button on the pc to click to make the printe/aio copy
[16:20] <fero> Excuse me guys but ... have you got an idea of why my updates to default QtCurve gtkrc does not work ?
[16:21] <fero> I use kubuntu 9.10 with awesome window manager. I want to shrink fonts of my gtk applications. pidgin reads /usr/share/themes/QtCurve/gtk-2.0/gtkrc but seems that updating this file does not affect its presentation
[16:22] <shadeslayer> fero: run : kbuildsycoca4 --noincremental
[16:23] <fero> shadeslayer: I want to trust you :) ... going to update
[16:23] <shadeslayer> fero: eh? this is not a update
[16:24] <fero> shadeslayer: rebuild sorry
[16:24] <shadeslayer> fero: :)
[16:24] <shadeslayer> fero: its a cache refresh
[16:24] <shadeslayer> fero: also try not to cross post in other channels at the same time :)
[16:29] <fero> shadeslayer: sorry :) but noone could help me here nor in pidgin .... but now kbuildsyscoca seems to work ... wait a moment for another try...
[16:29] <Frrx> guys i have a webcam issue... the image is purple and i cant get a clear image
[16:29] <Frrx> any idea=
[16:29] <Frrx> =
[16:30] <Frrx> ?
[16:30] <FloodBotK3> Frrx: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[16:35] <WaltzingAlong> Frrx: are you purple?
[16:37] <Frrx> ya my webcam image is
[16:37] <Frrx> im white hehehehe
[16:38] <iconmefisto> Frrx: what software are you using?
[16:39] <Frrx> i tied kopete, emesene, skype, chrome and firefox
[16:39] <Frrx> and always purple
[16:40] <Frrx> and not clear
[16:40] <Frrx> maybe drivers or something
[16:43] <WaltzingAlong> !webcam
[16:58] <Frrx> i found my driver it is a tar.gz file can somebody explain me how to install it
[16:59] <Frrx> or a link
[16:59] <WaltzingAlong> Frrx: perhaps where you found the driver?
[16:59] <Frrx> http://syntekdriver.sourceforge.net/
[17:00] <Frrx> thanks for the links u gave me
[17:00] <Frrx> but i dont know how to install/compile/load the driver
[17:05] <iconmefisto> Frrx: there's probably a readme file inside the archive explaining everything
[17:05] <Frrx> yes im reading it thanks man
[17:08] <BluesKaj-Laptop> !tar |  Frrx
[17:08] <patuti> Hey all, is there some kind of configuration in KDE that would slowly reset my screen brightness to lowest value even if I manually set it to any other value using my keyboard shorcuts?
[17:15] <patuti> hmm it looks like the Power Management profile is overriding my manual config after all
[17:20] <esay> have you ever tried Pardus that is a linux distribution
[17:41] <Frrx> guys
[17:41] <Frrx> does anyone knows the meaning of this error when installing a driver ** [prepare0] Error 2
[17:49] <esay> have you ever tried Pardus that is a linux distro
[18:04] <informavore> Is this the right place for stuff on lucid, or only Karmic?
[18:05] <tsimpson> until it's released, ask in #ubuntu+1
[18:06] <informavore> k, thanks!
[18:07] <esay> have you ever tried Pardus that is a linux distributio
[18:14] <Frrx> does anyone knows the meaning of this error when installing a driver ** [prepare0] Error 2
[18:15] <rork> Frrx: you're compiling it?
[18:15] <Frrx> yup
[18:15] <Frrx> and i get that error with two different versions of the same driver
[18:16] <Frrx> when i makefile -f i get that error...
[18:16] <Frrx> i read is something about libraries or something but i have no idea
[18:16] <rork> Frrx: most likely you're missing a package, do a google search on the error (only the error) and most likely you'll find a forumpost or something that will tell you what you're missing
[18:17] <rork> Frrx: then try to install the dev version of that package trough apt
[18:17] <Frrx> ok thanks ill keep seaching thx
[18:18] <rork> Frrx: good luck, I'm off now
[18:42] <Frrx> make: *** [all] Error 2 nyone???

[18:47] <evilshadeslayer> Frrx: dunno how it can be fixed though
[18:47] <evilshadeslayer> Frrx: oh wait
[18:47] <Frrx> i get the same error installing two different versions of the same driver
[18:48] <evilshadeslayer> oh my
[18:48] <evilshadeslayer> Frrx: install : apt-file : do : apt-file search bounds.h :  and install the necessary package
[18:49] <tsimpson> apt-file is not installed by default
[18:50] <tsimpson> !find linux/bounds.h
[18:50] <tsimpson> Frrx: you need to install linux-headers-generic
[18:50] <evilshadeslayer> tsimpson: oh we can do that too?
[18:50] <evilshadeslayer> thats new...
[18:50] <tsimpson> evilnhandler: it's been around for _years_ ;)
[18:50] <Frrx> i already got it installed
[18:51] <Frrx> and nothing happened
[18:51] <evilshadeslayer> tsimpson: wrong nick :P
[18:51] <tsimpson> damn you evil people
[18:51]  * tsimpson goes and gets caffeine
[18:51] <evilshadeslayer> Frrx: mmzone.h <<
[18:51] <evilshadeslayer> !find linux/mmzone.h
[18:52] <nhandler> tsimpson: Need me? Or tab-failure?
[18:52] <Frrx> wait... what should i do exactly
[18:52] <Peace-> xD
[18:52] <tsimpson> nhandler: another tab-fail
[18:53] <nhandler> :)
[18:53] <Frrx> i already have installed the headrs-generic
[18:53] <Frrx> but nothing happens when i try to compile the driver
[18:53] <evilshadeslayer> Frrx: is this driver in to repo?
[18:54] <Frrx> i downloaded the tar.gz file
[18:54] <Frrx> sorry i have like 2 weeks using ubuntu so... thx for being patience
[18:55] <Frrx> im following a guide to install the driver and when im going to compile it i get that error
[18:56] <evilshadeslayer> Frrx: can you link me to the guide?
[18:56] <Frrx> http://doc.ubuntu-fr.org/syntek
[18:57] <Frrx> its in french but ive been reading the same guide in 3 diff languages and im doing exactly what it saids
[18:58] <evilshadeslayer> Frrx: ah webcam driver?
[18:59] <Frrx> yup
[18:59] <evilshadeslayer> Frrx: ok lemme see...
[19:00] <evilshadeslayer> Frrx: what does : locate bounds.h : return>
[19:01] <Frrx> /usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.31-20-generic/include/linux/bounds.h
[19:03] <evilshadeslayer> Frrx: hmm...
[19:05] <evilshadeslayer> Frrx: i have no idea...
[19:05] <evilshadeslayer> !find linux/mm.h
[19:06] <Frrx> hehe
[19:06] <Frrx> no problem
[19:06] <evilshadeslayer> Frrx: got it!
[19:06] <Frrx> :D
[19:06] <evilshadeslayer> i think
[19:06] <evilshadeslayer> Frrx: its searching in the wrong place
[19:07] <evilshadeslayer> tsimpson: where are linux headers usually installed?
[19:08] <evilshadeslayer> nvm...
[19:09] <evilshadeslayer> Frrx: no idea.. but the error is with bounds.h..
[19:09] <Frrx> ok thanks for ur time... ill search for it
[19:09] <evilshadeslayer> Frrx: what you can try is installing the boost libs... they have a bounds.hpp ...
[19:09] <Frrx> ok
[19:09] <evilshadeslayer> im not sure if that will solve it
[19:10] <Frrx> this? libboost-python1.38-dev
[19:15] <evilshadeslayer> Frrx: um..
[19:16] <evilshadeslayer> Frrx: install libboost-all-dev,just to be sure
[19:16] <tsimpson> evilshadeslayer: it's not looking for boot
[19:16] <evilshadeslayer> tsimpson: boot?
[19:16] <tsimpson> add an 's' in there
[19:16] <evilshadeslayer> boost?
[19:16] <tsimpson> it's probably that the driver is written for an older kernel
[19:17] <tsimpson> yes, boot's "bounts.hpp" will not be what it's looking for
[19:17] <evilshadeslayer> tsimpson: idk.. i did a locate on bounds.h and theres a bounds.hpp in boost..
[19:17] <tsimpson> did it again...
[19:17] <maco> tsimpson: britney spears?
[19:17] <evilshadeslayer> like i said im not entirely sure
[19:17] <tsimpson> well boost is C++, most kernel drivers are pure C or asm
[19:18] <GNU\colossus> _all_ kernels drivers are C (and a little ASM, sometimes)
[19:19] <tsimpson> you can write a kernel driver in C++ (or any language which compiles down to ASM), as long as you don't use anything which requires an external library
[19:20] <tsimpson> but just because you can, doesn't mean anyone ever does
[19:20] <evilshadeslayer> LP ftp is quite fast today...
[19:21] <evilshadeslayer> although there are too few LP builders :(
[20:34] <ilumi> i have a problem with a webcam, its is installed, has a driver, and it works, but only with flash(in the webbrowser), however things like kopete and other webcam software doesnt see it
[20:44] <neogenesis> ahaha nice
[20:45] <slow-motion> hi
[20:46] <HULTOR_> how you doing ?
[20:52] <seawolf> hi all,is normal to have these dir /  ?  http://i41.tinypic.com/b96hq0.png
[20:53] <tsimpson> in /, no
[20:54] <mertle> seawolf: that is weird...
[20:56] <seawolf> I and deleting then?
[20:57] <tsimpson> seawolf: it should be safe to delete them, they should not even exist to begin with
[20:58] <mertle> seawolf: what's in them?
[20:59] <seawolf> .config/Trolltech.conf
[20:59] <seawolf> in .kde nothing
[21:00] <mertle> seawolf: is there a Trollteck.conf in your home .config?
[21:00] <mertle> or Trolltech.conf
[21:01] <seawolf> in home no but in /home/seawolf/.config/Trolltech.conf yes
[21:01] <mertle> seawolf: should be fine to delete those folders then
[21:02] <seawolf> ok thank Mene tsimpson
[21:02] <seawolf> * mertle
[21:02] <mertle> np :)
[21:06] <vivek> hii!
[21:07] <vivek> Hi! I am using Kubuntu9.10 and as we know it comes with KDE 4.3 ... and now that KDE 4.4.2 is out , I wanted to upgrade. I wanted to know if it would create any issues/breaks etc...
[21:09] <vivek> Hi! I am using Kubuntu9.10 and as we know it comes with KDE 4.3 ... and now that KDE 4.4.2 is out , I wanted to upgrade. I wanted to know if it would create any issues/breaks etc...
[21:12] <avihay_> vivek: kubuntu 10.04 is out in about two weeks
[21:12] <avihay_> if you are woried about issues, you might want to wait for that
[21:12] <Ahmed\> Hello, I am on KPackagekit and i can't update cause it says something else it also running when theres nothing like that... any help ?
[21:13] <avihay> Ahmed\: try opening a konsoule and typeing: sudo apt-get update
[21:13] <vivek> avihay:am not that worried about issues , just that it should not result in a system which cant be operated at all.. and yes dont feel like waiting 2 weeks for something which has already been released 2 months back
[21:14] <luis_> I need help urgently pls: how I can install sopcast plugin into firefox?!
[21:14] <avihay> see if it says the same thing
[21:14] <Ahmed\> yes i do know that but anyways
[21:14] <Ahmed\> okay i will update it from there
[21:14] <Ahmed\> actually upgrade works tho !
[21:15] <vivek> is anyone around who has upgraded KDE4.3 to 4.4.2 recently
[21:15] <mertle> I've seen people in here with some issues about that...
[21:16] <vivek> mertle:thanks that was what i wanted to know.. what are those issues ..,..would be great if you could let me know
[21:17] <mertle> vivek: I never paid much attention to them - something about plasma not working right
[21:18] <vivek> mertle: hmmmm .. so I guess doing the upgrade now is not suggested!
[21:18] <luis_> I need urgent helo pls: how I can install sopcast plugin into firefox?!
[21:19] <mertle> vivek: imo latest isn't best - things need time to get sorted - if you want to help sort out issues then it's your call
[21:20] <mertle> luis_: you could try in #mozilla if no-one here knows
[21:20] <vivek> mertle: true..... I would love to help sort out issues if I could though:-)
[21:20] <mertle> vivek: luck then :)
[21:20] <vivek> mertle: lol... thanks !
[21:22] <Benkinooby> hi, everytime i log on my kubuntu lmms (linux multimedia studio) autostarts 4 times! This is very annoying and also disables my desctop effects due to the performance "bottleneck". i checked /home/my_user_name/.kde/Autostart, but it is empty. Where else can i check?
[21:24] <mertle> Benkinooby: you could try in konsole   find ~ -name lmms   and see what it returns
[21:25] <seck> how can i edit a picture from stellarium?
[21:27] <mertle> seck: is there anything on their site about it? - can you find the jpg or png or whatever?
[21:28] <seck> mmm idont think so iwill see
[21:29] <Benkinooby> mertle: it gives me /home/myname/lmms and komplains that /home/myname/.kde/share/apps/kppp can not be enterd (permission denied). afaik kppp is some thing for dial up inet-connections, so i dont mind it. i am now checking the lmms folder for something "suspicious".
[21:30] <mertle> k
[21:32] <Benkinooby> mertle: looking at http://pastebin.com/L1zhyPXx , what is the meaning of "total 8"?
[21:33] <Benkinooby> mertle: also i didn't find anything useful... :(
[21:35] <mertle> Benkinooby: I don't use lmms - do they have a faq or forum on their site? - maybe even a irc channel?
[21:36] <Benkinooby> mertle: i will go for it. but i think it is kde's fault... i will log in with xfce and see, if it comes again....
[21:36] <Benkinooby> mertle: thank you for your efforts
[21:36] <mertle> Benkinooby: great idea
[21:36] <mertle> luck
[21:46] <Benkinooby> mertle: i managed. before i logged off i rememebered, that kde starts all apps that were running when i log off or shut down. so i checked my running processes, kill the 4 lmms processes (which were running, although i closed all lmms windows) and loged off. now they didn't come again.
[21:52] <mertle> Benkinooby: well done - I never thought of that :)
[21:54] <Benkinooby> mertle: hmmm. i think i will change to an other (faster) UI like xfce or even an windowmanager only... kde is very heavy and i am working on a netbook (lenovo ideapad)...
[21:55] <mertle> Benkinooby: I use fluxbox without a *dm and it hass very low resource use
[21:55] <mertle> s/hass/has
[21:55] <Benkinooby> mertle: what is *dm ?
[21:56] <mertle> Benkinooby: that is a way of saying   gdm kdm xdm etc
[21:57] <mertle> Benkinooby: * is a wildcard on the command line
[21:57] <Benkinooby> mertle: i know * :) so u log in with comand line and the start fluxbox?
[21:58] <mertle> Benkinooby: yep - I set up ~/.xinitrc and ~/.bash_profile to start fluxbox when i log into tty1
[22:00] <Benkinooby> mertle: usually, when i use windowmanagers, i get difficulties to use my wireless (seems like i need the kde network manager...) anyway... i will give fluxbox a try (after i comapred it to other windowmanagers ;) ) ty for your advice...
[22:01] <mertle> Benkinooby: do you know there is a kubuntu-netbook release?
[22:01] <Benkinooby> mertle: yes. https://wiki.kubuntu.org/Kubuntu/Netbook
[22:01] <mertle> k
[22:02] <Benkinooby> mertle: you even can install it my sudo aptitude (or what ever u use) kubuntu-netbook
[22:02] <mertle> Benkinooby: you're not so nooby benki :)
[22:03] <Benkinooby> mertle: hmmmm... maybe. but considering the time i spend on linux i should be a pro by now ;)
[22:04] <mertle> hehe
[22:12] <Benkinooby> mertle: hmm, i think i will go down slowly... so now i look at xfce and lxde, which seem to be small DEs which are closer to windowmanagers than kde
[22:13] <mertle> Benkinooby: lxde is pretty new - I would recommend xfce - it has a compositor as well that is very light
[22:14] <Benkinooby> mertle: ok, thank you. i heard that xfce also will lose some of its performance advantages, because it has no own libaries like gnome or kde. but i think i will test it myself :) thank you for your hint again :)
[22:15] <Benkinooby> mertle: bye. thanks for your concerns!
[22:15] <mertle> Benkinooby: xfce uses gtk like gnome - never heard about it losing its' performance advantages tho - if you install it the libs will be d/loaded as deps
[22:16] <mertle> bye Benkinooby :)
[22:25] <hexdump_> man for some reason while I'm trying to update my system the "KPackageKit" just keeps saying Loading cache.  can I just update everything in the konsole?
[22:30] <sundar> Hi.. I have a *very* basic doubt in Amarok: I've right-clicked a device and asked Amarok to 'Read Device', added songs from the device to the playlist, now how do play the songs?
[22:35] <sundar> Hi.. I have a *very* basic doubt in Amarok: I've right-clicked a device and asked Amarok to 'Read Device', added songs from the device to the playlist, now how do play the songs?
[22:35] <hexdump_> nm I figured it out
[22:36] <mertle> sundar: selected the playlist?
[22:37] <sundar> mertle: how?
[22:38] <mertle> sundar: you might have to change your view to show the playlists - or you didn't make it right maaybe
[22:39] <sundar> mertle: the playlist is showing up on the right with the songs I selected.. but when I choose a song and then click the play button in the top left, nothing happens..
[22:40] <mertle> sundar: when you select the playlist all the files should show in the main window right?
[22:40] <mertle> double click one sundar
[22:40] <sundar> mertle: sorry to be such a newbie, but which one is the 'main window'?
[22:40] <sundar> mertle: I've tried double clicking on the songs also, if that's what you mean. That too does nothing.
[22:41] <mertle> sundar: it is the biggest part of amarok
[22:41] <sundar> mertle: actually, on double clicking the wikipedia page opens up for a moment and then vanishes
[22:42] <sundar> mertle: and yes, all the songs show up in the large area on the right..
[22:42] <mertle> sundar: try from the menu setting up a playlist and adding the files - instead of adding the files and setting up a playlist
[22:43] <sundar> mertle: there doesn't seem to be any menu option for creating a new playlist either..
[22:44] <mertle> sundar: I'm not on kde atm - is there a button - or similar - I just meant start with the playlist not start with adding files
[22:45] <sundar> mertle: I understood, and searched all over the interface, but I couldn't find any..
[22:46] <sundar> mertle: I guess for now I'll stick to the more familiar Rhythmbox.. thanks a lot...
[22:46] <mertle> sundar: I'm sure under the menu view is an option for playlists
