| xrandr | im trying to use the nvidia driver i downloaded via kpackagekit... when i ran nvidia-xconfig as root it wrote an xorg.conf. I tried putting it in /etc/X11/xorg.conf and restarted KDM. It will not restart. I'm using Kubuntu 10.04 | 00:08 |
|---|---|---|
| caprea_ | KDm wont restart? | 00:10 |
| caprea_ | xrandr, I have had success with using 'envyng' | 00:11 |
| xrandr | what is envyng? | 00:11 |
| caprea_ | from manual pageS: | 00:12 |
| caprea_ | EnvyNG is an application written in Python which will | 00:12 |
| caprea_ | download the latest ATI or NVIDIA driver or the Legacy driver | 00:12 |
| caprea_ | (for older cards) (according to the model of your card) from | 00:12 |
| caprea_ | ATI or Nvidia's website and set it up for you handling depen‐ | 00:12 |

| caprea_ | dencies (compilers, OpenGL, etc.) which are required in order | 00:12 |
| xrandr | ok | 00:15 |
| caprea_ | I did apt-get for envyng (I think its in KPackageKit too) | 00:15 |
| caprea_ | and can be run from cammand line | 00:15 |
| xrandr | ok, thank you | 00:16 |
| xrandr | lemme try that | 00:16 |

| xrandr | caprea_: i cannot get envy. Using kpackagekit and searching for it, it does not show up | 00:22 |
| caprea_ | let me check mine | 00:23 |
| caprea_ | it shows up as 'envyng' | 00:24 |
| caprea_ | but another thing worth trying to get it is 'sudo apt-get install envyng' | 00:25 |

| Typos_King | allo | 01:28 |
| wrr_ | kate led the crashment of the plasma-desktop | 01:28 |
| Typos_King | ok, good to know :) | 01:28 |
| wrr_ | you too? | 01:29 |
| Typos_King | no :) | 01:29 |
| wrr_ | hh | 01:29 |
| wrr_ | and I tried upgrade ubuntu 9.10 to 10.04,but failed,now I could only operater int the shell | 01:31 |
| wrr_ | sad..... | 01:31 |
| Typos_King | the advise will be, do a full install :) | 01:32 |
| wrr_ | I know,but it's late now?What should I do? | 01:34 |
| iconmefisto | wrr_: you're not the only one. #ubuntu+1 is the lucid 10.04 support channel | 01:34 |
| wrr_ | hh | 01:34 |
| wrr_ | Should I reinstall the system? | 01:36 |
| iconmefisto | wrr_: you can try to get it working. like I said, your problem is not uncommon in lucid at this stage | 01:36 |
| wrr_ | thank you,maybe I could do it after the beta comes out | 01:38 |
| iconmefisto | wrr_: beta was out, now it's RC | 01:40 |
| iconmefisto | wrr_: make sure you've got the latest packages installed: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 01:41 |
| wrr_ | really?Let me try it | 01:42 |
| caprea_ | How can I replace a default package with the latest? For example the Kopete I have is version 0.80 but I want version 0.90 | 01:43 |
| iconmefisto | !info kopete | 01:44 |
| ubottu | kopete (source: kdenetwork): instant messenger for KDE 4. In component main, is optional. Version 4:4.3.2-0ubuntu4 (karmic), package size 5075 kB, installed size 17812 kB | 01:44 |
| Typos_King | caprea_: remove the old one, and then install the new one, I think you can also do an 'upgrade' on it too | 01:45 |
| caprea_ | An apt upgrade? | 01:45 |
| caprea_ | And will that cause conflicts with KPackageKit ? | 01:46 |
| iconmefisto | caprea_: lucid will be released in a week. it has kopete version 1.0.0 | 01:47 |
| Typos_King | ... no from what I can tell :| | 01:47 |
| caprea_ | oh, well I can wait a week, thanks | 01:47 |
| Typos_King | it seems it only does all or none | 01:47 |
| Typos_King | caprea_: just remove it with-> sudo apt-get remove kopete; and then install the new one | 01:47 |
| iconmefisto | caprea_: actually kopete 1.0.0 comes with kde4.4, which you could install now in karmic. see the link in !topic | 01:49 |

| wrr_ | please help | 01:52 |
| iconmefisto | wrr_: that happens after you did the apt-get dist-upgrade ? | 01:53 |
| wrr_ | yes | 01:53 |
| iconmefisto | any errors when you did apt-get update? | 01:54 |
| wrr_ | no | 01:54 |
| iconmefisto | ok try this first: sudo apt-get install -f | 01:54 |
| wrr_ | ok | 01:55 |
| iconmefisto | wrr_: might be a good idea to join #ubuntu+1 (the lucid support channel) | 01:55 |
| === tek is now known as Guest4991 | ||
| Guest4991 | new kubuntu user here? why cant I su in terminal? doesnt take my password but works for everything else | 01:56 |
| Typos_King | !sudo | Guest4991 | 01:57 |
| ubottu | Guest4991: sudo is a command to run command-line ( see !cli ) programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome, XFCE), or !kdesudo (KDE) | 01:57 |
| Guest4991 | ? | 01:57 |
| Typos_King | Guest4991: in debian-based distributions, su is not enabled, and thus you need to use 'sudo' :), is done as a precautionary rule | 01:58 |
| caprea_ | I think I've done "sudo su" on ubuntu | 01:58 |
| Typos_King | if you must 'su', you can always do -> sudo su; howeve is rather discouraged :) | 01:58 |
| Guest4991 | so whats the sudo command to elevate that terminals priv | 01:59 |
| caprea_ | sudo is the command | 01:59 |
| Typos_King | caprea_: yeah, so have I, I like su too, but I can do without, I guess I understand their concern | 01:59 |
| Guest4991 | im a new linux user and not understanding | 01:59 |
| Typos_King | heheh | 01:59 |
| Guest4991 | typing just sudo shows its usage .. how do i actually elevate | 01:59 |
| Typos_King | you're new and you want to use a feature you dunno? I don't get that | 02:00 |
| caprea_ | okay a normal user might type "mkdir temp" | 02:00 |
| iconmefisto | Guest4991: sudo <command> | 02:00 |
| caprea_ | if you dont have write permission, you might, instead, to "sudo mkdir temp" | 02:00 |
| Guest4991 | i come from suse and found I had to su all the time for things, just curious of the equiv and how it differs .. | 02:01 |
| caprea_ | and 'mkdir' means "make directory" so if you didnt have persmission to make a directory then adding sudo tot he front would give persmission | 02:01 |
| Guest4991 | i see | 02:01 |
| caprea_ | you can try "sudo su" if you must | 02:01 |
| Typos_King | Guest4991: so have I, I'd run suse10, so | 02:01 |
| iconmefisto | or sudo -s | 02:01 |
| Guest4991 | that clears it up caprea .. i didnt understand suda was a prefix to other commands, i thought i needed to elevate with sudo before my command | 02:01 |
| Typos_King | suse has both by the way, 'su' and 'sudo' as well, in ubuntu is just only 'sudo' for the sake of avoiding some folks messing up accidentally | 02:02 |
| Guest4991 | yast drove me away from suse, just to install klibido and pypar2 was a headache, enough of that | 02:02 |
| Typos_King | ? | 02:02 |
| Typos_King | really? | 02:02 |
| Typos_King | I get along with yast just fine :| | 02:02 |
| caprea_ | This might clear things up, Guest: http://xkcd.com/149/ | 02:02 |
| iconmefisto | caprea_: make me a sandwich? | 02:03 |
| Guest4991 | i couldnt just install klibido like i can in ubuntu with apt-get or kpackagekit | 02:03 |
| Guest4991 | it wouldnt even handle dependencies, was nasty | 02:03 |
| Guest4991 | on suse that is^ | 02:03 |

| xrandr | yea that's what i was lookin for :) | 04:35 |
| xrandr | thank you | 04:36 |

| iconmefisto | xrandr: do you have pulseaudio installed? | 04:56 |

| iconmefisto | xrandr: if you do want to try that, move the gstreamer backend above xine backend, see if that works for speaker-test or flash sound | 05:12 |

| iconmefisto | xrandr: after installing, restart firefox and test | 05:16 |

| noaXess | is there a simple way to remove the whole kde desktop?.. so i have just a running box with no X and no X apps? | 12:55 |
| Hugo_ | I have no idea, sorry | 12:55 |
| Hugo_ | Do you know how I can install and uninstall stuff on Kubuntu 9.10? | 12:56 |
| Hugo_ | Because mine didn't come with Adept? | 12:56 |
| Hugo_ | Or Synaptic | 12:56 |
| noaXess | Hugo_: normal .deb files over: sudo dpkg -i pacakge.deb | 12:56 |
| noaXess | Hugo_: apps from the kubuntu repos over: sudo apt-get install package-name | 12:56 |
| AlexZion | Hugo_: just try to install synaptic .... sudo apt-get install synaptic | 12:56 |
| AlexZion | Hugo_: or even kpackagemanager | 12:57 |
| noaXess | kpackagekit :) | 12:57 |
| Hugo_ | Well, I tried kpackagekit and searched for something | 12:57 |
| Hugo_ | And it didn't work? | 12:57 |

| === dendro-afk is now known as dendrobates | ||
| Hugo_ | Thanks :) | 13:13 |
| Hugo_ | I think I know why though | 13:14 |
| Hugo_ | I was using Konqueror | 13:14 |
| TheAncientGoat | Hugo_: What version of kubuntu are you running? | 13:14 |
| Hugo_ | And it should work on Mozilla? | 13:14 |
| Hugo_ | 9.10? | 13:14 |
| Hugo_ | Earlier I got the GNU Grub 1.97beta thing? | 13:14 |
| TheAncientGoat | Ok, then you should be using kpack, and not adept.. | 13:14 |
| Hugo_ | And I couldn't run Kubuntu | 13:14 |
| Hugo_ | I had to uninstall kubuntu | 13:14 |
| Hugo_ | format my hard drive | 13:14 |
| Hugo_ | And re-install | 13:14 |
| Hugo_ | Now there is a way to fix the GNU Grub 1.97beta in terminal right? | 13:15 |
| TheAncientGoat | Yep | 13:15 |
| TheAncientGoat | How did you "get" the new grub version? | 13:16 |
| Hugo_ | I don't know..? | 13:16 |
| Hugo_ | I just installed | 13:16 |
| Hugo_ | Kubuntu | 13:16 |
| Hugo_ | Then I shutdown | 13:16 |
| FloodBotK1 | Hugo_: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 13:16 |
| Hugo_ | And restarted later | 13:16 |
| TheAncientGoat | Installed from the livecd? | 13:16 |
| Hugo_ | Yes I installed inside Windows from the Live CD that i had burnt. | 13:16 |
| TheAncientGoat | Ok, but what was wrong with grub? | 13:17 |
| Hugo_ | Well, | 13:17 |
| TheAncientGoat | It should let you chose between booting windows or kubuntu | 13:17 |
| Hugo_ | Normally | 13:17 |
| TheAncientGoat | (also, if you want to install kubuntu only, installing it inside windows is a bad idea) | 13:17 |
| Hugo_ | The windows boot loader comes up, Windows XP Professional and Kubuntu | 13:18 |
| Hugo_ | I know. | 13:18 |
| Hugo_ | And then I chose Kubuntu, and instead of coming up with the Linux.generic-9.10 thing it just came up with GNU GRUB 1.97beta | 13:18 |
| Hugo_ | sh:grub: | 13:18 |
| Hugo_ | And I don't know the codes for the fix.. | 13:18 |
| TheAncientGoat | Does it say GRUB and nothing else? | 13:19 |
| Hugo_ | Minimal bash something something..? | 13:19 |
| TheAncientGoat | Ah.. The instalation must have botched then. But I guess you managed to install it from the live-cd? | 13:19 |
| Hugo_ | Again, into Windows | 13:20 |
| Hugo_ | After re-formatting | 13:20 |
| TheAncientGoat | And it works now? | 13:20 |
| Hugo_ | Well, I haven't restarted yet | 13:21 |
| Hugo_ | But it happened to me a while ago on Ubuntu 9.10 | 13:21 |
| TheAncientGoat | Wait, you re-formatted your entire pc, or did you have a seperate partition for kubuntu? | 13:21 |
| Hugo_ | And I used some codes to fix it | 13:21 |
| Hugo_ | I have a C and D drive. | 13:21 |
| Hugo_ | I installed Kubuntu onto my D Drive, using Wubi, then I couldn't uninstall, permission denied or something so I reformatted. | 13:22 |
| TheAncientGoat | Ok, then why don't you install kubuntu on the D drive instead of installing it inside windows? | 13:22 |
| Hugo_ | Because my friend told me that Windows didn't like running along side Kubuntu when it was in it's own partition | 13:23 |
| Hugo_ | And this is the second time today that I have installed kubuntu... | 13:24 |
| TheAncientGoat | Installing it through wubi on its own partition causes problems | 13:25 |
| Hugo_ | Oh.....? | 13:25 |
| TheAncientGoat | Installing it normally on its own partition is fine | 13:25 |
| TheAncientGoat | I've never had any problems with that, its pretty much the main way people do it | 13:26 |
| Hugo_ | Ok well, before I fixed it by going into terminal.. | 13:26 |
| Hugo_ | And entering in some codes...? | 13:26 |
| Hugo_ | Do you know them>/ | 13:26 |
| TheAncientGoat | Nope. Its most probably something to fix the path for linux image, because you installed it on a seperate partition | 13:27 |
| TheAncientGoat | But anywa | 13:27 |
| TheAncientGoat | Don't install 9.10 now | 13:27 |
| TheAncientGoat | The next version of kubuntu is comming out next weekend | 13:27 |
| TheAncientGoat | And it has lots of improvements and stuff | 13:27 |
| Hugo_ | ok | 13:27 |
| Hugo_ | thanks`:D | 13:27 |
| TheAncientGoat | 9.10 has been problematic, but 10.04 is a LTS (supposedly stable) release, so it should give people less problems | 13:28 |
| TheAncientGoat | How are you running kubuntu at this moment though? Livecd? | 13:29 |
| TheAncientGoat | Hugo_: ^ | 13:30 |
| Hugo_ | thru windows | 13:30 |
| TheAncientGoat | Ah, VM? | 13:30 |
| Hugo_ | no | 13:31 |
| Hugo_ | wubi | 13:31 |
| TheAncientGoat | So it installed successfully? | 13:31 |
| Hugo_ | yeah | 13:32 |
| fbxxkl | Hi, anyone here know a little bit about vbox? | 13:32 |
| Hugo_ | but i got the gnu grub thing b4 | 13:32 |
| Hugo_ | Any ideaas? | 13:34 |
| TheAncientGoat | Hugo_: I don't understand the problem though? | 13:34 |
| Hugo_ | Ok | 13:34 |
| Hugo_ | Before when i installed Kubuntu, it installed successfully. | 13:35 |
| Hugo_ | I booted up | 13:35 |
| Hugo_ | And started runnning some cool effects and then it stuffed up because of too many effects. | 13:35 |
| Hugo_ | I held the off key | 13:35 |
| Hugo_ | Restarted, and it went into the GNU GRUB thing. | 13:35 |
| Hugo_ | And said | 13:35 |
| Hugo_ | sh:grub | 13:35 |
| TheAncientGoat | ahh | 13:35 |
| TheAncientGoat | ahhh | 13:35 |
| TheAncientGoat | I know the problem there | 13:35 |
| Hugo_ | How do I fix it? | 13:36 |
| Hugo_ | Do i just update? | 13:36 |
| Hugo_ | Because I'm doing that through terminal now | 13:36 |
| TheAncientGoat | When you install from wubi, and you shut down improperly, you first need to boot back into windows and let it do the diskcheck thing | 13:36 |
| TheAncientGoat | And then restart, and you should be able to boot back in | 13:36 |
| Hugo_ | So shutdown | 13:36 |
| Hugo_ | Then reboot into Windows | 13:37 |
| TheAncientGoat | Thats one of the downsides of installing through wubi | 13:37 |
| TheAncientGoat | Hugo_: And then restart, and boot into kubuntu | 13:37 |
| Hugo_ | So, when I shutdown i go to windows | 13:37 |
| TheAncientGoat | Yes. | 13:37 |
| TheAncientGoat | And it should do a diskcheck while starting up | 13:38 |
| TheAncientGoat | Hugo_: I'm not 100% sure this will work in 9.10, but that's always fixed it for me in 8.04 | 13:38 |
| Hugo_ | thanks | 13:39 |

| reagleBRKLN | I'm testing out the Kubuntu Lucid RC, my fonts are now a little bigger, I notice this sometimes happens when moving to a new release. Is this a xorg dpi thing or something? | 18:37 |
| Pici | reagleBRKLN: please use #ubuntu+1 for Lucid questions :) | 18:38 |

| xrandr | so, switching from ALSA to OSS, recommended or not? | 19:08 |
| Mamarok | xrandr: I would say no, unless you have serious reasons to do so | 19:09 |
| jimmy51_ | i've got a free ipod touch. is it easy to transfer content between it and my kubuntu 9.10 machine? | 19:10 |
| James147 | jimmy51_: think amarok can do it, but not sure how good it is at it | 19:11 |
| jimmy51_ | James147: hmm... i don't even see it in amarok | 19:13 |
| James147 | jimmy51_: it should show up as a local collection | 19:14 |
| James147 | jimmy51_: what version of amarok? | 19:14 |
| James147 | jimmy51_: does the device manager see it? | 19:15 |
| jimmy51_ | James147: amarok 2.2.0 | 19:16 |
| Mamarok | jimmy51_: check out this link: http://wp.me/pKriD-9 | 19:16 |
| Mamarok | jimmy51_: and get a newer Amarok, 2.2.0 is very old | 19:16 |
| jimmy51_ | Mamarok: hmm... i thought kubuntu would update it as needed (when i confirm updates) | 19:17 |
| Mamarok | jimmy51_: not newer versions, see here: http://kubuntu.org/news/amarok-2.3.0 | 19:18 |
| James147 | jimmy51_: 2.2.0 isnt "very" old... latest is 2.3.x and you need to enable the backports to update to it | 19:18 |
| Mamarok | James147: I can assure you it *is* old, from our POV, we are preparing 2.3.1 right now | 19:19 |
| Mamarok | also there have been at least 3 version since | 19:19 |
| jimmy51_ | will kubuntu add the newer to the repos? i don't like to go too far off the reservation when it comes to packages | 19:20 |
| jimmy51_ | *the newer version | 19:21 |
| James147 | jimmy51_: no, i dont think they will upgrade major versions unless you enable the backports | 19:21 |
| Mamarok | jimmy51_: well, it is in the PPA backports repositories, but since Kubuntu is not a rolling distribution it will not end up in the regular updates | 19:21 |
| Mamarok | but Kubuntu 10.04 will ship Amarok 2.3.0 | 19:22 |
| James147 | jimmy51_: the backports will also upgrade you to kde 4.4.x | 19:22 |
| Mamarok | James147: it's backports PPA, the regular backports repositories don't have it, only KDE 4.3.5 IIRC | 19:22 |
| James147 | Mamarok: whats what I meant ^^ :p | 19:23 |
| Mamarok | well, it's important to make the difference IMHO, since those are not repositories, but the private package archives of the Kubuntu team. The only way to get newer versions than just bugfixes | 19:24 |
| jimmy51_ | ok, it says ipod touch must use gtkpod | 19:25 |
| jimmy51_ | i've downloaded that.. .... one step says "mount your ipod" | 19:25 |
| maco | ipod touch should work in lucid | 19:25 |
| jimmy51_ | i'm now sitting on it.... what next ? :) | 19:25 |
| maco | not all the libraries are packaged in karmic to make it go, and the ones that are are quite old versions | 19:25 |
| Mamarok | maco: he is not in Lucid, that wuld be in #ubuntu+1 :) | 19:25 |
| jimmy51_ | seriously though.... how do i mount an ipod ? | 19:25 |
| maco | Mamarok: i know. im saying i doubt itll work in karmic because teh libraries simply arent there | 19:26 |
| Mamarok | jimmy51_: plug it in I guess? gtkpod should see it, also Amarok 2.3.0 shows it in the Collection Browser, don't know for 2.2.0 | 19:26 |
| maco | unless the how-to he's following includes compiling current source from version-control | 19:26 |
| Mamarok | maco: it should have worked with 2.2.2 for sure | 19:26 |
| jimmy51_ | Mamarok: it doesn't show in any of them | 19:27 |
| jimmy51_ | i have a VM running Win7 with passthrough, and it sees it, but the linux host doesn't seem to | 19:27 |
| Mamarok | jimmy51_: then I don't know, sorry. I can't even test, I don't have an iPod | 19:27 |
| maco | Mamarok: without usbmuxd? | 19:27 |
| Mamarok | might be gtkpod related, no idea if there are not other files you need for that | 19:27 |
| jimmy51_ | Mamarok: thanks for trying. i'm not an apple fan. my creative zen just works..... this thing is annoying. | 19:28 |
| maco | usbmuxd is required in order to use an ipod touch, and its not packaged in karmic at all | 19:28 |
| jimmy51_ | maco: do you use an ipod touch in kubuntu 9.10? | 19:28 |
| maco | jimmy51_: my brother tried to get his working in ubuntu 9.10. i packaged usbmuxd for him and put it in a ppa, but the other librarires involved that are packaged in 9.10 are too old of versions for it to work | 19:29 |
| maco | sorry, i didnt do the packaging, i yanked it from debian and put it in a ppa | 19:29 |
| jimmy51_ | ok | 19:29 |
| jimmy51_ | so.... it sounds like i can A) grab various libraries from source, compile, install, possibly mess things up | 19:30 |
| jimmy51_ | or B) wait until 10.04 comes out and it should work out of the box? | 19:30 |
| maco | yep | 19:30 |
| maco | thats only 6 days away | 19:30 |
| jimmy51_ | and i can do a lot of damage in 6 days :) | 19:30 |
| stephen_ | Someone has experienced updating 8.04 => 10.04rc ? | 19:32 |
| maco | stephen_: technically not supported as 8.04 was not an lts for kubuntu... | 19:33 |
| jimmy51_ | ok, thanks all. i'll just wait for 10.04. this silly thing has been on my desk for over a year, 6 more days won't hurt. | 19:33 |
| maco | jimmy51_: my brother's been waiting since christmas to use his | 19:33 |
| maco | oh which reminds me, he had a question about it... | 19:34 |
| stephen_ | maco, So isn't possible make this update without problems... | 19:34 |
| maco | stephen_: it might work, but theres not been excessive work put into that particular upgrade path | 19:35 |
| James147 | stephen_: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LucidUpgrades <- should help | 19:35 |
| stephen_ | thanks marco and james147 | 19:35 |
| James147 | maco: kubuntu 8.04 was the lts release... | 19:35 |
| maco | James147: no it wasnt. 6.06 was the last kubuntu lts | 19:36 |
| maco | 8.04 was lts for ubuntu, not kubuntu | 19:36 |
| James147 | maco: and 8.04 check the link | 19:36 |
| James147 | maco: they have different? | 19:36 |
| maco | yes | 19:36 |
| stephen_ | i think 8.04 was lts... | 19:36 |
| maco | because kde 4.0 came out right when 8.04 came out | 19:36 |
| litropy | Hi, all. I need to switch from KDE to GNOME for a bit. How do I do so? | 19:36 |
| maco | 3.5 wasnt going to be supported long enough and 4.0 wasnt good enough, so kubuntu wasn't LTS | 19:36 |
| maco | litropy: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop | 19:37 |
| litropy | note: there's no "session" option @ the login screen | 19:37 |
| TheAncientGoat | litropy: Why do you want to do that though, if I may ask? | 19:37 |
| maco | is that with kdm or gdm? | 19:37 |
| TheAncientGoat | Cool to see all the identi.ca peeps on here | 19:37 |
| litropy | In GNOME, I could just go to "login screen" and choose my session manager. I already have GNOME | 19:38 |
| litropy | just looking for where to do it in KDE | 19:38 |
| stephen_ | james thanks for the link! | 19:38 |
| maco | litropy: you can switch to using gdm as the login screen. i dont think kdm supports it | 19:38 |
| stephen_ | you're right! 8.04 isn't LTS | 19:38 |
| maco | to do that: sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm | 19:39 |
| maco | then just pick gdm as default | 19:39 |
| litropy | see the strange thing is, i did that, yet it still loads up kde | 19:39 |
| litropy | Like I said, I could just go into my system settings in GNOME and within "login screen" I could toggle between GNOME and KDE. But in KDE's settings, there's no place to do that | 19:41 |
| litropy | And I know I did it before in KDE. So I'm a bit confused | 19:41 |
| maco | litropy: if you make gdm the default, doesnt gdm have a button to pick your default? | 19:42 |
| maco | i dont think kdm in kde4 has a button to choose from the login screen though | 19:42 |
| litropy | I mean, you're saying after sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm and selecting gdm, I can just log out and log back into GNOME | 19:42 |
| litropy | but it doesn't happen. | 19:43 |
| litropy | brb | 19:44 |
| maco | litropy: no im not. im saying when you select gdm, then when you logout youll see a gdm login screen instead of a kdm one (actually this might require a reboot...). gdm has a button on it to pick gnome or kde. kdm does not. | 19:47 |
| James147 | maco: I thourght kdm also had an option to choose sessions... | 19:49 |
| maco | i dont think so....but i dont want to logout right now to look either :P | 19:49 |
| maco | i think in kde3 it did but it hasnt been put back in kde4 yet | 19:49 |
| James147 | maco: going to install gnome on my netbook and check :) | 19:49 |
| litropy | guys, this is so strange. I swear two days ago I switched from KDE to GNOME within 15 seconds using a dropdown. But now I can't find it. | 19:54 |
| James147 | litropy: just installing gnome to try it | 19:55 |
| luciano | hello, anyone can help me? | 19:55 |
| James147 | !help | luciano | 19:55 |
| ubottu | luciano: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 19:55 |
| maco | oh oh found it! | 19:56 |
| litropy | it's actually the other way around. I installed kubuntu-netbook to compare ubuntu-netbook. | 19:56 |
| luciano | i installed kubuntu here and dont have sound | 19:56 |
| maco | litropy: there *is* a button its just not obvious at all | 19:56 |
| litropy | sweet maco! where? | 19:57 |
| maco | litropy: er...wait dang im on lucid so i only know what the button looks like on lucid...but on here it's a blue square with a white arrow pointing down | 19:57 |
| maco | on the kdm screen | 19:57 |
| luciano | what can i do? | 19:57 |
| litropy | I'm on lucid maco | 19:57 |
| litropy | where though? | 19:57 |
| maco | ok well see under the password box theres a blue square with a white down arrow? thats the dropdown | 19:57 |
| maco | there's a red square next to it with a power icon | 19:57 |
| litropy | k, gonna try | 19:57 |
| James147 | !sound | luciano | 19:58 |

| litropy | hi, all. no matter what I choose using sudo dpkg-reconfigure kdm, I'm still presented with what looks like a gnome login panel, which doesn't have the option to switch session managers, and I'm stuck in KDE. All I want to do is switch my session manager to gnome. In gnome, this is easy. you just go to the login screen prefpane under system and choose from a dropdown containing all the... | 22:27 |
| litropy | ...installed session managers. I cannot find something like that in kde. Please help me switch from kde to gnome and thank you in advance. | 22:27 |
