| Borg^Queen | hi people, I'm not using kubuntu, but I am (for the moment) using another kde centric distro and I need help. As it seems the devels for this distro have disappeared. When I plugin a usb drive, it no longer appears in kwikdisk (or fstab). We are using hotplug (I know, old) it was working fine up until 5 hrs ago. Does anyone have any idea what, if any middle app is used to modify the fstab? | 07:12 |
| genii | Borg^Queen: Perhaps try #kde channel for generalized assistance | 07:14 |
| Borg^Queen | genii: been there | 07:15 |
| Borg^Queen | waited for 5 hrs, | 07:16 |
| genii | Borg^Queen: Alternately find a distribution which also uses kwikdisk (like mepis) | 07:16 |
| Borg^Queen | genii: looking into it now, but doesn't resolve the problem at hand. | 07:16 |
| Borg^Queen | kubuntu has kwikdisk as well, just need to add it | 07:17 |
| Borg^Queen | are you happy with it, kubuntu? | 07:17 |
| === ybit3 is now known as ybit | ||
| genii | Borg^Queen: Yes, it works well for me. | 07:18 |
| Borg^Queen | how do you like kde4 ? | 07:19 |
| Borg^Queen | I'm guessing it used kde4 now | 07:19 |
| vivek_ | KDE4.4.2 is great | 07:19 |
| Borg^Queen | lol thank you vivek_ | 07:19 |
| genii | Borg^Queen: I'm getting used to it. I had 3.5 for a long time. | 07:20 |
| vivek_ | you are welcome Borg^Queen: | 07:20 |
| Borg^Queen | I was a heavy debian using for 4 years but it became too obsolete | 07:20 |
| Borg^Queen | genii: currently on 3.5.x | 07:20 |
| Borg^Queen | What I want is a kde centric distro with a real community, and a collection of rude people | 07:21 |
| Borg^Queen | I know it sounds silly but I don't want to send a noobie into a channel where they will be abused. | 07:21 |
| Borg^Queen | I recycle computers and donate them to children, the elder and home bound, these people are very sensitive | 07:22 |
| genii | Borg^Queen: If these computers are somewhat lower specs you may want to consider a lighter desktop than kde4 (such as xfce or so) | 07:23 |
| Borg^Queen | P3s and P4s | 07:23 |
| Borg^Queen | Decent ram, they run the distro I'm using now with full KDE 3.5.x, no difficulties | 07:24 |
| Borg^Queen | for really old stuff, I use puppy | 07:24 |
| genii | Yes, thats a good choice | 07:24 |
| Borg^Queen | Its got bite! | 07:24 |
| genii | We grow offtopic from Kubuntu support .. :) Luckily it's slow here at this time. | 07:25 |
| Borg^Queen | anyway I'll see what I can do about fixing my problem on my own. I've emailed bero, the founder, about it. | 07:25 |
| Borg^Queen | aye, I don't believe a channel should be so topic ridged but aye. | 07:25 |
| genii | Borg^Queen: Which distribution are you currently on? | 07:26 |
| Borg^Queen | Ark Linux, I've been using it for years, but our lead dev has disappeared and they rest of us are just learning. | 07:26 |
| Borg^Queen | Its a great distro but outdated now and only bero knows the deeps workings | 07:27 |
| Borg^Queen | another reason I'm considering abandoning it as well | 07:28 |
| Borg^Queen | but I want a kde centric distro | 07:29 |
| genii | Ubuntu/Kubuntu/Xubuntu has a very active community | 07:30 |
| Borg^Queen | aye, but are they friendly, as I said, the people I deal with are always wounded by society. | 07:30 |
| genii | Borg^Queen: We're here being friendly to you, are we not? | 07:31 |
| Borg^Queen | Oh terribly mean | 07:31 |
| Borg^Queen | lol | 07:31 |
| Borg^Queen | I'll let it go for night, it late. Tomorrow I'll dl and test kubuntu as well as do research on a replacement. Either way, thank you for your time. | 07:32 |

| xiven | How big a task am I looking at for modifying a Qt app to work with Kubuntu? It's an issue with Canonical's Qt patching... | 16:54 |
| ibelouis | well i have 2 linksys usb sticks | 16:57 |
| ibelouis | one works, one doesnt | 16:57 |
| ibelouis | but the one that works wont conenct | 16:57 |
| ibelouis | i even tried disabling wireless security on router and i get same problems when trying to connect | 16:57 |
| kalipus | ibelouis: use the gnome network manager | 17:00 |
| ibelouis | i didnt see that, i used the one that popped up on taskbar | 17:01 |
| kalipus | it works for me better and has more options | 17:01 |
| daskreech | ibelouis: how far into connecting does it get? | 17:01 |
| ibelouis | dont think it was gnome though | 17:01 |
| ibelouis | says connecting, aqquring address, disconencts | 17:01 |
| kalipus | u can use the gnome one on kubuntu, no problem ;) | 17:02 |
| ibelouis | pops up asking for password numerous times too | 17:02 |
| ibelouis | even on unsecure it pops up asking if theres a password | 17:02 |
| kalipus | its buggy ^^ | 17:02 |
| ibelouis | how do i go about installing the gnome one on kde? | 17:03 |
| ibelouis | offline install obviously | 17:03 |
| kalipus | never worked for me on umts, and i was annoying so set up any little detail, so i use the gnome one, which has a great setup | 17:03 |
| kalipus | bette to get the pc via wire online, offline is little difficult cause of depends. | 17:04 |
| ibelouis | if i had a 100ft cable layin around it might reach | 17:04 |
| ibelouis | but thats not an option =\ | 17:04 |
| kalipus | ^^ | 17:05 |
| kalipus | look what u need and download it: http://packages.ubuntu.com/de/jaunty/network-manager-gnome | 17:06 |
| ibelouis | those will work on 10.0.2 kubuntu? | 17:07 |
| kalipus | dont know | 17:07 |
| kalipus | search | 17:07 |
| ibelouis | wouldnt it be easier downlaoding the whole gnome install disc and installing from that? | 17:08 |
| kalipus | dont think there are the packages on | 17:09 |
| kalipus | dont know, sorry | 17:09 |
| kalipus | offline install sucks, get a cafe, drink a coffee and use there wlan :) | 17:09 |
| kalipus | i will do too in few min | 17:09 |
| ibelouis | carrying a double wide tower with 32 inch monitor into a cafe...... | 17:10 |
| ibelouis | wouldnt be to much fun | 17:10 |
| ibelouis | and if i could use wlan, i wouldnt need to lol | 17:11 |
| kalipus | ^^ right | 17:11 |
| ibelouis | thought about setting up tethering on my iphone again and trying it | 17:11 |
| ibelouis | didnt kno if kubuntu would pick it up though | 17:11 |
| kalipus | or u insatll first ubuntu and then the kde enviorment | 17:12 |
| kalipus | i am also not very comfortable with wlan problems, always used a wire :) | 17:13 |
| ibelouis | i did to, til i caught ex cheating and moved back with mom til i finish school | 17:13 |
| ibelouis | its all wireless here though since modem/router at far end of house | 17:14 |
| ibelouis | think ill reformat that drive for ubuntu and make sure wireless works and if so ill add on the kde | 17:15 |
| ibelouis | thx for the suggestions | 17:15 |
| kalipus | but before complete reinstall, check with livemode if it really works ;) | 17:16 |

| txwikinger | yes | 18:08 |

| === luis__lopez is now known as luis_lopez | ||
| txwikinger | yeah.. add runlevel 4 and 5 to them | 18:13 |
| txwikinger | So they should come up even if rc never finishes which is what tty1 is waiting for | 18:14 |
| txwikinger | anyhow.. you can always start them with "sudo start tty2" etc | 18:14 |
| iconmefisto_ | txwikinger: yeah, figured out how to start them, but if X doesn't start for some reason, I can't do that | 18:15 |
| txwikinger | well.. 2-6 don't wait for anything | 18:15 |
| txwikinger | so if you add the missing runlevels they should start in any event | 18:16 |
| === dendrobates is now known as dendro-afk | ||
| iconmefisto_ | txwikinger: don't quite understand the explanation, but what would have caused this? should it be RUNLEVEL=[2345] in all of them, or is this a workaround for some other upstart problem? | 18:19 |
| txwikinger | iconmefisto_: "start on runlevel [2345] " starts on any event | 18:20 |
| txwikinger | there is nothing it waits for | 18:20 |

| geronimo_ | Is there some kind of help page for missing sound support in kubuntu lucid lynx beta (Flash/Skype) | 18:23 |
| maco | iconmefisto_: obviously the former, since we use kde ;-) | 18:23 |
| geronimo_ | maco: did my question destroy your point? ^^ | 18:24 |
| iconmefisto_ | ok, rebooting now, back soon | 18:25 |
| felipe__ | oo | 18:25 |
| maco | geronimo_: do you ahve other programs running that use sound at the same time? flash likes ot hog the device | 18:25 |
| geronimo_ | maco: yes I have that, I use 64 bit btw | 18:26 |
| geronimo_ | maco: installed kubuntu-restricted-extras like right away | 18:26 |
| maco | try closing other programs that use sound, closing your browser, then starting the browser back up. then flash might have sound while other stuff wont | 18:26 |
| geronimo_ | maco: you don't consider this a solution, do you? | 18:26 |
| maco | personally, using pulseaudio seems to make things easier for me, but i know some people think it breaks worse on kde | 18:26 |
| BluesKaj | geronimo_, did you install kubuntu-restricted-extras ? | 18:27 |
| maco | BluesKaj: geronimo_ just said they did | 18:27 |
| BluesKaj | o0k, sorry geronimo_ | 18:27 |
| geronimo_ | ^^ | 18:27 |
| maco | geronimo_: no its not a solution to the fact that adobe writes crappy code :) | 18:27 |
| BluesKaj | was distracted | 18:27 |
| geronimo_ | maco: what about skype then? | 18:27 |
| geronimo_ | maco: getting the feeling, that it's some kind of KDE problem, worked in ubuntu, all aside | 18:28 |
| geronimo_ | maco: like flash, exaile, skype | 18:28 |
| maco | geronimo_: for me, using flash 10 and the pulse-aware skype with pulseaudio and setting pulse to be default device in systemsettings is what works best, because pulse will handle mixing instead of letting flash hog the device | 18:28 |
| maco | geronimo_: ubuntu uses pulseaudio. kubuntu doesn't. | 18:28 |
| geronimo_ | maco: it uses jack, right? | 18:28 |
| maco | no | 18:28 |
| maco | kubuntu doesnt use either | 18:28 |
| geronimo_ | okay | 18:29 |
| BluesKaj | ok, geronimo_ , some ppl think pulseaudio is a problem on their setups and some solve it by removing it. | 18:29 |
| maco | ubuntu studio, i think, uses jack. jack is for professional audio. pulse is for desktop audio. | 18:29 |
| geronimo_ | ah okay, thanks maco | 18:29 |
| === simon_ is now known as Guest55112 | ||
| geronimo_ | maco: is it a lot of work to get it to work with kubuntu? | 18:29 |
| maco | BluesKaj: yeah i think they just need to learn how to configure it | 18:29 |
| iconmefisto | but you can use jack and pulseaudio in kubuntu | 18:29 |
| maco | geronimo_: no, you go to systemsettings, click on multimedia, and set pulseaudio as the default. i'd reboot afterward to make sure it all starts in the right order | 18:30 |
| maco | iconmefisto: yeah, just neither is default | 18:30 |
| geronimo_ | looks like I have jack installed | 18:30 |
| iconmefisto | geronimo_: some audio apps might have it as a dependency | 18:31 |
| BluesKaj | maco, I just remove it , my audio setup is simple stereo so alsa by itself works fine | 18:31 |
| maco | geronimo_: you might want to try to get help from crimsun. i think he knows how to make jack play nice | 18:32 |
| iconmefisto | usually jack is started/stopped manually before starting an audio app that uses it for low latency audio | 18:33 |
| geronimo_ | okay | 18:33 |
| iconmefisto | geronimo_: do you have jackd running? | 18:33 |
| geronimo_ | doesn't look like it | 18:34 |
| geronimo_ | I'll install it | 18:34 |
| iconmefisto | geronimo_: qjackctl is a gui to start/stop jack, and configure it | 18:35 |

| vince | hi guys | 18:36 |
| vince | (girls) | 18:36 |
| iconmefisto | txwikinger: btw, still no tty's | 18:36 |
| txwikinger | iconmefisto: that's odd | 18:37 |
| txwikinger | maybe something with your upstart is off | 18:37 |
| vince | question: how can I remove the kde-desktop logo in top right hand corner of the kde menu ? It's all messed up since lucid when you use custom themes | 18:37 |
| BluesKaj | geronimo_, good luck with jack , I hope iconmefisto sticks around to help you with it | 18:37 |
| geronimo_ | that bad? :D | 18:38 |
| BluesKaj | maybe it's beyond my abilities , geronimo_ , I hear itworks for some ppl | 18:38 |
| iconmefisto | geronimo_: jack is only useful for programs that can use it. eg, audio recording/sequencing work | 18:38 |
| txwikinger | iconmefisto: but "sudo start tty2" works? | 18:40 |
| txwikinger | iconmefisto: what release are you on? | 18:40 |
| iconmefisto | txwikinger: yes it works. on lucid with this problem | 18:41 |
| vince | question: how can I remove the kde-desktop logo in the top right hand corner of the kde menu ? It's all messed up since lucid when you use custom themes | 18:42 |
| iconmefisto | vince: not an answer really, but you could use lancelot menu instead | 18:43 |
| vince | indeed. | 18:44 |
| vince | (not an answer :p) | 18:44 |
| txwikinger | iconmefisto: look at this http://upstart.ubuntu.com/wiki/Debugging | 18:45 |
| txwikinger | maybe you can get some more info with the debugging | 18:45 |
| jhambo | hi folks, on 9.10, launching kmail or kontact gives a segmentation fault with the following dumped to the command line: http://paste.ubuntu.com/419949/. I'd greatly appreciate any help to get these programs working. | 18:48 |
| vince | hi | 18:51 |
| vince | have you tried to delete the config files ? | 18:51 |
| jhambo | vince: which ones? | 18:52 |
| garikoitz | hola | 18:52 |
| vince | home\user\.kde\apps\ | 18:53 |
| vince | just the kmail folder though | 18:54 |
| vince | rename it, KDE will create new config files | 18:54 |
| vince | home\user\.kde\share\apps\ | 18:55 |

| jhambo | vince: back | 19:03 |
| vince | yep | 19:03 |
| vince | so ? | 19:03 |
| jhambo | for some reason doing a aptitude purge kmail doesn't get rid of the config files like I thought it would | 19:03 |
| vince | so have you tried my method ? | 19:03 |
| vince | usually i go manually, it's the only way to know for sure | 19:04 |
| jhambo | vince: goood god! it worked!!! I probably bashed my head on this for 6 hours since yesterday. I got all side tracked into trying to fiddle with the akonadi server | 19:05 |
| jhambo | your method worked | 19:05 |
| vince | usually when something goes wrong with an app, deleting the config files manually is the best option | 19:06 |
| vince | glad to hear it worked | 19:06 |
| antonio_ | hi | 19:06 |
| vince | hi | 19:07 |
| jhambo | yes many many thanks. Now I'm off to understand what aptitude purge actually does... | 19:07 |
| Delemir | /agree with vince i do this all the times | 19:07 |
| vince | I think it deletes all the packages you downloaded and that are not used anymore | 19:08 |
| jhambo | vince: got it - purge deletes the system wide config but never touches the user home directories | 19:14 |
| vince | jhambo: cheers I didn't know that | 19:16 |
| ary | one question: I'm using ubuntu 9.10 with kde 4.3. I want to install kde 4.4. I read that I need to use Kubuntu PPA Backports (4.4) | 19:26 |
| ary | doing: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:kubuntu-ppa/backports | 19:27 |
| ary | my question is: it'll upgrade to kde 4.4 or to the current backport version? | 19:27 |
| ary | hello??? | 19:34 |
| moetunes | ary: I've never done it but try apt-cache search kde4 to check | 19:36 |
| vince | I did | 19:37 |
| vince | I just followed to instructions on kde.org | 19:37 |
| vince | nope sorry, kubuntu.org | 19:37 |
| vince | you might have to reinstall plasma-desktop though | 19:38 |
| vince | or delete your current kde config files and let kde 4.4 recreate them | 19:38 |
| vince | http://www.kubuntu.org/news/kde-sc-4.4.2 | 19:39 |
| vince | ary: | 19:39 |
| ary | vince: okey... but my question is: Does the backports has only kde 4.4 or will it change for new version every time | 19:40 |
| ary | for example: kde4.4 then kde 4.5 then 4.6 ...etc | 19:40 |
| vince | I think you will have the option to upgrade everytime thee is a new version yeah | 19:40 |
| vince | via kpackagekit | 19:40 |
| vince | i started out with kde 4.4 | 19:40 |
| vince | and I had the option to upgrade to 4.4.1 | 19:41 |
| vince | then 4.4.2 | 19:41 |
| vince | kpackagekit will let you know :) | 19:41 |
| ary | ahh okey. But backports doesn't work only with 4.4.x.? Maybe later it will change for 4.5 for example | 19:42 |
| vince | That I don't know | 19:42 |
| vince | It's not gonna change to 4.5 anytime soon though | 19:42 |
| txwikinger | ary: packages are tested before they go into backport | 19:45 |
| txwikinger | backport does not contain experimental stuff.. for that there are other ppas | 19:46 |
| ary | txwikinger: and what happend if today backports have 4.4 and tomorrow they have 4.5? My kde 4.4 will change when I try to upgrade it. | 19:47 |
| ary | maybe it's a problem for me :( | 19:47 |
| txwikinger | Well... as long as you do not set upgrades to be done automatically, you have to manually do it | 19:47 |
| ary | txwikinger: okey... yes | 19:48 |
| txwikinger | btw... you can always look with "apt-cache policy <packagename>" what the different versions are that are reachable for you | 19:48 |
| ary | yes... | 19:49 |
| txwikinger | and when you change the repo/ppa list and do an "sudo apt-get update" it will change | 19:49 |
| txwikinger | So you can take out the backports after your upgrade if you do not want to upgrade again | 19:49 |
| ary | txwikinger: I'll install a minimal ubuntu, then I'll append repo/ppa, and then I'll install kde 4.4 | 19:50 |

| txwikinger | You asked two different ones | 19:54 |
| ary | txwikinger: this the reason for that I want to install ubuntu with kde and not kubuntu | 19:55 |
| txwikinger | Well. Kubuntu is KDE+ | 19:55 |
| txwikinger | and the packages in the ppa have additional stuff... maybe not a lot, but there is some stuff | 19:56 |
| ary | txwikinger: for example? | 19:56 |
| txwikinger | the notification system | 19:56 |

| sheytan_ | I can't make a backup of my akonadi data in kubuntu. Got everything needed installed | 21:24 |
| sheytan_ | can someone help? | 21:24 |
| icf7 | luis_ | 21:25 |
| icf7 | oops | 21:25 |
| icf7 | luis_: Uninstall currently installed version, download http://downloads.sourceforge.net/pokerth/PokerTH-0.7.1-linux-installer.bin?use_mirror= , open Konsole, type sh Desktop/Pok* | 21:26 |
| luis_ | ok | 21:28 |
| luis_ | actually i haven't installed yet | 21:29 |
| luis_ | cd | 21:29 |
| luis_ | } | 21:29 |
| icf7 | luis_: Well, I'd prefer installing the Kubuntu version, just cause you get all the dependencies | 21:29 |
| icf7 | sheytan_: Why can't you make the backup? ( http://blogs.msdn.com/oldnewthing/archive/2010/04/21/9999675.aspx ) | 21:29 |
| luis_ | and the command you gave says: Can't open Desktop/Pok* | 21:30 |
| icf7 | luis_: Did you download the file? | 21:30 |
| icf7 | luis_: and if so, into which directory? I just assumed Firefox and default settings | 21:30 |
| luis_ | i did download a file from the sourceforge | 21:31 |
| luis_ | it's a src.tar.bz2 file | 21:31 |
| luis_ | the file is on my desktop | 21:31 |
| icf7 | luis_: pls reread what I wrote. the .tar.bz2 is for developers | 21:31 |
| icf7 | luis_: You need http://downloads.sourceforge.net/pokerth/PokerTH-0.7.1-linux-installer.bin?use_mirror= | 21:31 |
| luis_ | the thing is that in the pokerth web they say old version cannot connect to internet anylonger, they said that i need the current version | 21:32 |
| luis_ | so i have tried to do it but i just can't | 21:32 |
| icf7 | luis_: You can't download http://downloads.sourceforge.net/pokerth/PokerTH-0.7.1-linux-installer.bin?use_mirror= ? | 21:32 |
| luis_ | i can but the pokerth version in the repos is an old version and it won't connect to internet | 21:33 |
| icf7 | luis_: Sry, I can't follow. Which pokerth version do you need? | 21:34 |
| luis_ | this one | 21:34 |
| luis_ | that's the one | 21:34 |
| luis_ | but everything goes fine but then after installing it ADEPT MANAGER keeps telling me to update it and i do it, but it for some reason the system won't update it | 21:35 |
| icf7 | luis_: The current version of pokerth is 0.7.1. I advised you on how to install it, but you didn't seem to read anything I wrote | 21:36 |
| icf7 | luis_: The current version in the hardy repository is indeed 0.6, and probably too old | 21:36 |
| luis_ | sorry about that | 21:36 |
| luis_ | i am downloading the one you gave me | 21:37 |
| luis_ | this one suppose to be open with wine but for some reason wine won't open ot | 21:37 |
| luis_ | opne it* | 21:38 |
| luis_ | open cit** | 21:38 |
| icf7 | luis_: No, it's not supposed to be opened with wine. | 21:38 |
| icf7 | luis_: Have you downloaded http://downloads.sourceforge.net/pokerth/PokerTH-0.7.1-linux-installer.bin?use_mirror= ? | 21:39 |
| luis_ | i did | 21:39 |
| luis_ | it is in my desktop | 21:40 |
| icf7 | ok, please press Alt+F2, enter konsole, press Enter | 21:40 |
| icf7 | luis_: A black window should appear now. Right? | 21:40 |
| luis_ | right | 21:40 |
| icf7 | luis_: Type (or copy) cd Desktop && chmod a+x Poker* | 21:41 |
| icf7 | luis_: (and press enter) | 21:41 |
| icf7 | luis_: Got it? | 21:41 |
| luis_ | ok | 21:42 |
| luis_ | it took me to desktop | 21:42 |
| icf7 | luis_: excellent. Now enter sudo ./Poker* . You'll need to give Ubuntu your password to install pokerth | 21:42 |
| luis_ | wow awsome | 21:43 |
| icf7 | luis_: Does that mean it works? | 21:44 |
| luis_ | it's done can't believe i send last night tryoing to do it | 21:44 |
| luis_ | thanks a lot men | 21:44 |
| ubuntu | bvb | 21:44 |

| icf7 | Mamarok: Won't help either. jhutchins_lt: sudo /etc/init.d/kdm stop stops kdm | 22:00 |
| jhutchins_lt | Mamarok: kdm is responsible for launching X, killing kdm should take it down, and appears to, but then it restarts. Killing X should cause kdm to recycle to the greeter. | 22:00 |

| appleseed | Hi guys; I'm really hoping someone can help me here. I have a fresh lucid on a new pc which uses [Intel HDA] audio which works in Amarok, although when I try to play sound in Mplayer I get: | 22:30 |
| Ahmed\ | Does ubuntu gets Virus ? i mean Does it ? | 22:30 |
| appleseed | [AO_ALSA] alsa-lib: pcm_hw.c:1293:(snd_pcm_hw_open) open /dev/snd/pcmC0D0p failed: Device or resource busy | 22:30 |

| appleseed | Failed to initialize audio driver 'alsa:device=hw=0.0' | 22:31 |
| Ahmed\ | I am using it from a month works just FINE HUH where were i until now stickin to windows @_@ | 22:31 |
| Typos_King | Ahmed\: any OS can get 'viruses', I don't believe there are any exemptions to such, is just a matter of taking the time, and most take for win32 platforms, so | 22:32 |
| Ahmed\ | HUH | 22:32 |
| appleseed | I've tried many things, but even with alsa_oss installed the sound seems to work only either on Mplayer or Amarok, but never at the same time. | 22:33 |
| Ahmed\ | I don't have any anti virus for this or firewall, do i need anyting like that ? | 22:33 |
| === adriana is now known as virgilio | ||
| Typos_King | Ahmed\: there are a few antivirus apps for *nix too by the way, but their security is in safer fashion then other OSes | 22:34 |
| Ahmed\ | umm | 22:34 |
| appleseed | Is this an HD-Audio issue, because I distinctly remember it working on AC97 with exactly the same software, just on another pc | 22:35 |
| Ahmed\ | And firewalls ? i wish there was something like Looknstop | 22:35 |
| Typos_King | Ahmed\: the chances of you getting one in the near future is highly unlikely and even if gotten the chances of it making serious damage is also no likely too | 22:35 |
| Typos_King | Ahmed\: linux has firewall built-in the kernel, sooooo, you don't need to install any | 22:35 |
| Ahmed\ | HHHHHHHHHHHH Thanks a lot for the info really | 22:36 |
| Typos_King | appleseed: can't say... have you tried other players? maybe is just Mplayer's settings for 'audio output device' | 22:36 |
| appleseed | Typos_King: atm I'm running both Amarok and Dragon Player with both playing sound at the same time | 22:37 |
| mentis_pl | hi, i have a ... problem ... i dont have 'up' arrow in dolphin ;P meaning the button to go up the tree... only back and forward... how to bring it on the screen ? | 22:37 |
| appleseed | but I've tried all the Mplayer audio settings and none works, so maybe it's some obscure mplayer library I have to install | 22:38 |
| Typos_King | appleseed: maybe.... :), I use Xine-UI, which works peachy :), so | 22:38 |

| Typos_King | my other machine has nvidia, a 32mbs one.. and played fine movies/dvds fine in xine-ui too, I can on this one as well | 22:41 |
| appleseed | maybe I'll try xine-ui | 22:41 |
| appleseed | but this mplayer sound issue is going to nag at me forever | 22:41 |
| Typos_King | and the nvidia one also played streams asx/wmv in mplayer as well, which is the only thing I use mplayer for, saving streams :) | 22:42 |
| appleseed | maybe I'll just switch to AC97 in the bios, I wouldn't know the difference between HD and that as I just use earphones anyway | 22:43 |
| appleseed | I was listening to audio on Amarok, but it wouldn't work in Mplayer, then I installed alsa_oss and tried again, suddenly sound worked on Mplayer and Amarok stopped with 'HDA Intel device not working, switching...' | 22:47 |
| appleseed | although I can play sound on Amarok and Dragon Player at the same time | 22:48 |
| appleseed | If I close Amarok the sound works in Mplayer | 22:50 |
| Typos_King | hehe | 22:51 |
| Typos_King | not sure on mplayer, but I know you can change the device for audio output in amarok | 22:51 |
| Ahmed\ | What's the difference between BASH and Terminal and Konsol i wonder @_@ | 22:51 |
| appleseed | only one works though, HDA Intel | 22:51 |
| Typos_King | and that might have been it, the installation of the drivers change something in the global sound configurations | 22:52 |
| appleseed | I'm slowly losing my mind | 22:52 |
| regeya | as long as it's at a slow rate | 22:52 |
| appleseed | lol | 22:52 |
| appleseed | You know I struggled the whole day just to make the builtin hibernation work, finding out after 12 hours that it was my USB3.0 that cannot be freezed | 22:53 |
| Typos_King | Ahmed\: bash is a Shell OS, whenever you open a 'bash session' is also interchanged with a 'terminal session', and there are many clients y ou can use, Konsole is just the default for KDE environments | 22:53 |
| appleseed | a simple disable in BIOS was the answer | 22:53 |
| regeya | oh haha appleseed :-D | 22:54 |
| Typos_King | appleseed: | 22:56 |

| appleseed | hehe nice; it feels like I've got so much useless info in my head - i.e. how to fix 10,000 problems in linux | 22:57 |
| appleseed | that's all I know about linux, just the problems | 22:58 |
| Typos_King | appleseed: | 22:58 |
| Typos_King | crap enter key :( | 22:58 |
| Typos_King | appleseed: welcome to life 101 | 22:58 |
| Typos_King | it's been like so since you were born :P | 22:58 |
| appleseed | Typos_King: yeah tell me about it lol | 22:58 |
| appleseed | I'm going to restart and hopefully AC97 will do the trick | 22:59 |
| cdoc | :'( | 22:59 |
| Typos_King | ? | 23:00 |
| Ahmed\ | How can i DISABLE the Default bootscreen Which opens up KDE when i have selected Gnome as default i wanna see the PC to boot up like it was before installing KDE ? how | 23:04 |
| Typos_King | ... | 23:07 |
| Typos_King | Ahmed\: not sure what you mean :| | 23:07 |
| Ahmed\ | Actually i wanna | 23:08 |
| Ahmed\ | see Gnome bootup screen | 23:08 |
| Ahmed\ | Not as Kubuntu | 23:09 |
| Ahmed\ | With that red xsplash screen ? when you only have Gnome you see it on boot up | 23:09 |
| Ahmed\ | ? | 23:09 |
| appleseed | Nope, AC97, HD, all does the exact same thing with the exact same device names and everything. Woe is me. | 23:10 |
| Typos_King | appleseed: A pessimist see the difficulty in every opportunity; an optimist see the opportunity in every difficulty. ~~ Winston Churchill ~~ | 23:11 |
| appleseed | Typos_King: Maybe I've been given too many 'opportunities' today then | 23:12 |
| Typos_King | Ahmed\: .... not sure on that, there's the gnome window manager, metacity I believe, and there's the gnome's desktop manager, which I'd think you may not have installed, and thus you don't have the option | 23:12 |
| Typos_King | appleseed: These days come and go, but they say nothing, and if we do not use the gifts they bring, they carry them as silently away.~~ Ralph Waldo Emerson ~~ | 23:13 |
| Typos_King | :) | 23:13 |
| Ahmed\ | Yeah | 23:14 |
| Ahmed\ | I dont | 23:14 |
| appleseed | Typos_King: nice | 23:14 |
| Typos_King | Ahmed\: then I'd think that may be it :| | 23:15 |
| Ahmed\ | umm | 23:18 |
| appleseed | Happy Day - I've found a solution. When I want to switch between Mplayer and Amarok, I can just stop the track or video completely and switch over, which is not so elegant but sufficient seeing that there's not much utility in listening to music and watching movies at the same time. | 23:23 |
| appleseed | This however will not work if the track or movie is paused as the sound device is still engaged | 23:27 |
| Typos_King | well | 23:28 |
| Typos_King | depends | 23:28 |
| Typos_King | if you're watching a black-white old silent-movie, and you want to play your own background :P | 23:28 |
| appleseed | Like a Charlie Chaplin flick with some circus music | 23:29 |

| Pisagor | Hello, i am using Linux Mint | 23:30 |
| ubuntu | hello | 23:43 |
| ubuntu | could someone help me installing grub on an usb stick from which i can boot my install of kubuntu on another disk? | 23:45 |
| ubuntu | and dont tell me that google is my friend i heard that one before and it is known that google has no friends | 23:47 |
| Typos_King | heheh | 23:50 |
| Typos_King | ubuntu: | 23:50 |
| Typos_King | crap the enter key again :( | 23:50 |
| Typos_King | ubuntu: did you install kubuntu already on the usb stick? | 23:50 |
| ubuntu | no i installed it on another drive | 23:53 |
| ubuntu | and i want to boot that install from my usb stick | 23:53 |
| ubuntu | i usually boot darwin/osx | 23:53 |
| ubuntu | i just want to install grub on my usb stick so i can pop it in when i want to boot into kubuntu | 23:53 |
| FloodBotK1 | ubuntu: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 23:53 |
| genii | ubuntu: The basic process would be... boot a livecd. Insert the usb stick. partition it and format to ext2 or ext3. mount it somewhere like /mnt dir of the livecd.then from command prompt of livecd should be something like: sudo grub-install --root-directory=/mnt /dev/sdd (or sde or whatever the usb devicename is..NOT sdd1 or sde1 partition but the main drive name) | 23:58 |
