James147yofel: think it was jsut before it was anounced00:00
yofelah wait00:00
yofelwe're talking about kubuntu (*headdesk*)00:00
amichairif I have karmic with binary from nvidia site, what do I need to do  to upgrade? release notes say something about upstream drivers no longer working - ?00:00
yofelyeah, there were a few updates to the installer that shouldn't affect  kubuntu much though00:00
James147muffin2: have you rebooted since the problems started?00:01
yofelx/ubuntu isos were rebuilt today to fix a grave grub/installer issue relevant for them, kubuntu seems to be unaffected by it00:01
muffin2James147 : I did it several times.00:01
muffin2It happens each time00:01
benkevanmuffin: what's the problem?00:01
yofelmuffin2: and you *can* login in a tty?00:02
benkevanI'm running Kubuntu right now.. but I have to say (honestly) I think openSUSE is the best KDE distro00:02
muffin2yofel : yes I can00:02
benkevanmuffin2: What's the issue?00:02
muffin2benkevan : After I log out on kubuntu, there is no KDM but just a black screen.00:02
muffin2I have to press Ctrl+Alt+F1 to enter tty1.00:03
muffin2This is kubuntu 10.04 published today.00:03
benkevanThat's quite retarded.. on a new installation?00:03
yofelmuffin2: can you try 'sudo kdm restart' there next time to see if that helps, and save the /var/log/Xorg.0.log the moment it shows the black screen?00:03
muffin2benkevan : It's a new stable version of kubuntu published today.00:03
benkevanI know.. but is it a new installation? an upgrade?00:03
muffin2yofel : I better save /var/log/Xorg.0.log before typing sudo kdm restart00:04
yofelyes00:04
muffin2benkevan : It's a brand new installation00:04
yofelthis shouldn't happen, but now that it does it would help to know why it happens00:04
muffin2man00:06
muffin2yofel : "sudo kdm restart" results in nothing.00:07
yofelargh, I should go to bed... 'sudo service kdm restart' - sorry man00:08

ubottumuffin2: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots.00:12
yofelmuffin2: depends, kde should be the same, this sounds like a graphics driver issue or something like that00:12
muffin2yofel : It's sun virtualbox00:12
yofelbenkevan: that's deprecated since karmic00:12
dominicdinadahow do I add the command line run textbox to the taskbar ?00:12
dominicdinadawhat is the widget name ?00:13
RnFstRuckHrdOkay so laptop just finished its upgrade - did the reboot and now it will show the Kubuntu splash screen for a split second (with really grainy, pixelated graphics and colors) and then the screen goes black. Nothing after that. Any thoughts?00:13
yofelhm, we did have a bunch of issues with virtualbox during lucid testing, might be one of them00:13
Ellhound`Laptopis there any easy way to change primary display on kubuntu?00:13
RnFstRuckHrdupgrade from 9.10 to 10.04 by the way and it is a Dell 700M with onboard graphics and 1Gb of RAM00:13
muffin2I should go back to ubuntu or to opensuse.00:14
benkevanoh.. haha.. new back to ubuntu since.. 7.1000:14
benkevanor was it 6.04 .. can't really remember.. been a while00:14
yofelbenkevan: we're replacing sys-v-init with upstart, 'sudo service <servicename> <action>' can handle both types of init scripts00:15
yofelwhile the transition isn't finished00:15
Zhenyaw00t upgrading to 10.04 :D00:15
muffin2Ot00:15
Zhenyai am really surprised that this was released the same day as ubuntu. I guess i misunderstood the relationship between Kubuntu and ubuntu00:16
muffin2It's time to try debian!!00:16
yofelactually /etc/init.d/kdm restart still works through a compatibility layer, dunno for how long though00:16
benkevanoooh.. about time.. :o) .. then i won't get confused if I'm on Ubuntu vs RedHat HAHA00:16
Zhenyabenkevan: ahhahah thats the reason i went with Kubuntu cause it looked so much more modern :D00:16
yofelZhenya: kubuntu is ubuntu with KDE, we can't release kubuntu with finished KDE but unstable base system ;)00:16
muffin2yofel : are you a kubuntu developer?00:17
yofelno, alpha tester00:17
Zhenyayofel: agreed. I thought that it would take y'all a while to push out K 10.04 after the U 10.04 was released00:17
muffin2yofel : And I'm a late adopter.00:17

yofelZhenya: then you'll have to live with it, you can't switch in the middle00:19
tew88Hi fellas. I've no sound in Flash. Kubuntu 10.04 (64bit), installed ubuntu-restricted-extras and have no sound either in Chrome or FireFox.00:19
yofeloxymoron: hehe00:19
oxymoronyofel: That thing worked for Dragon to use "XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS=1 dragon %u"00:19

Zhenyaif you're in dallas lets go riding :P00:20
oxymoronyofel: Btw, I am talking to cairo dock developer. He and I wonder, how do you call Lnacelot and Kmenu/kickoff with Dbus?00:20
smokealotbut my ride will be on the magic dragon (:00:20
Zhenyasmokealot: hhahahahah00:21
yofeloxymoron: no idea, I am totally clueless about how dbus works, should learn about that sometime I guess...00:21
oxymoronyofel: You know someone who knows then? Or maybe someone is here and see this? :P00:22
James147tew88: many ppl had this issue with karmic, you can try purging and reinstalling flashplugin-installer or purging it and installing the version from adobes site00:22
Zhenyalater y'all :D00:22
oxymoronyofel: because he will apply a Lancelot/Kickoff applet for Cairo dock if he know how to interact with dbus or something like that00:22
tew88James147: Purging? apt-get remove?00:22
yofeloxymoron: the best place to ask if you have development questions is #kubuntu-devel I think00:23
RnFstRuckHrdOkay so laptop just finished its upgrade - did the reboot and now it will show the Kubuntu splash screen for a split second (with really grainy, pixelated graphics and colors) and then the screen goes black. Nothing after that. Any thoughts?00:23
James147tew88: apt-get purge  (it will do the same as remove but also delete config files)00:23
tew88James147: ty, I'll give it a bash00:23
yofelwell, I'm off to bed, gn8 folks00:24

oxymoronyofel: Goodnight00:26
RnFstRuckHrdOkay so looking around on the ubuntu forums - found an article that says the Dell 700M is aparently blacklisted. Any version of kubuntu works fine up until 10.04 - then all you get is a black screen whether it is a fresh install, upgrade or LiveCD session. WTF? So if I cannot use this OS, how can I revert back to Karmic without formating my machine? I was told this would be a seemless upgrade... :-\00:34
smokealotwow00:35
smokealotthat sucks00:35
smokealotim clueless00:35
RnFstRuckHrdI am pretty disappointed that the community was never made aware of these blacklisted machines...00:35
James147RnFstRuckHrd: I am afraid down grading is not supported00:36
RnFstRuckHrdhttp://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=146102900:36
RnFstRuckHrdWOW - great00:36
RnFstRuckHrdtalk about being up $h1T creek with no paddle00:36
smokealoti never new a computer could be blacklisted for an install of linux00:37
smokealottsk tsk tsk00:37
RnFstRuckHrdI know I am a minority case here but I feel REALLY short-sided00:37
James147RnFstRuckHrd: sorry, but there is not much that can be done at this stage execpt a reinstall00:40
RnFstRuckHrdman, I am irate. This is does nothing more then go against the whole idea of a free OS - blacklisted machines!?!?! The developers at Kubuntu have done A LOT of great things but they should absolutely ashamed of themselves for pulling something like this. I guess there is probably some convoluted reason for it that is far above my capabilities to comprehend but WHY WAS I NOT TOLD PRIOR TO TURNING MY LAPTOP INTO A PAPERWEIGHT (at00:40
RnFstRuckHrd least until I reformat and start from scratch)00:40
James147RnFstRuckHrd: unless you wait a few days and hope someone comes up with a workaround00:40
RnFstRuckHrdTY for the info James147, I gues I am just venting now and this is not the place, sorry00:41
RnFstRuckHrdI appreciate your advice00:41
James147RnFstRuckHrd: unfortinatly there are sooo many mechienes out there its hard for get it working for everysingle one (windows has it easier as mechienes tend to be built with it in mind)00:42
James147RnFstRuckHrd: Its also probally advisable from now on to try a live cd before upgrading :S00:45
RnFstRuckHrdI understand but Dell as a huge market share in household PCs, notebooks in particular. While the 700M is archaeic by todays tech standards it was a MASS produced, affordable and productive notebook. I ams ure there are more then a few of us with this issue. Unfortunately for me is the only laptop I have to use and do not have time to tinker, as much as I would liek to. Its moments like these when I have to admit my friends00:45
RnFstRuckHrd using windows are right, you get what you PAY for00:45
RnFstRuckHrdOh I know better now! but after having the kubuntu almeighties in this very same channel say, your upgrade will be SEEMLESS, I figured I could take their word for it00:46
James147RnFstRuckHrd: they also have less of an issue because they dont upgrade their system as often (once ever few years vs twice a year)... and if your hardware dosnt work on a new windows mechiene i bet most ppl would buy a new mechiene00:46
James147RnFstRuckHrd: it will be seemless in `most` cases, unfortinatlly there is always one person that it wont work for00:47
RnFstRuckHrdI would too if I was not trying to get through med school - buying new hardware is not an option. Which is why Iw as so impressed with kubuntu00:47
James147RnFstRuckHrd: where as if you where on windows you would probally still be running xp rather then vista or win 7.... so they still do have the issue they just dont seem to care as much :S00:48
James147RnFstRuckHrd: heh, well that aint ood00:49
James147^^ good, looks like grub broak on mine with a fresh install00:50
RnFstRuckHrdI only ever ran WinXP, I was more then happy with it. True it did not have any cool eye-candy but the OS itself ran flawlessy for me. I switched because Kubuntu utilized my hardware more efficiently, looked and functioned nicer, and I no longer had to pirate the software that I needed00:50
James147RnFstRuckHrd: but my point is still there, you wouldnt upgrade windows so you ddnet encounter the hardship of upgrading an entire os to a new version :)  Its just something you have to live with on a system that gets updated so often unfortinutlly (rather then waiting 10years for the next version)00:52
RnFstRuckHrdI was fine witrh how Karmic functioned and work - but I burned a day watching the upgrade creep in and now I have to do nothing but find a karmic .iso / burn it / and format my 700M and spend the next few hours making it look at work the way I need it. No ones fault but my own in the long run (as I did not try the LiveCD first) but still think I should have gotte some kind of headsup from Kubuntu Devs abotu blacklisting machines00:53
RnFstRuckHrdJames147 - you are right00:53
James147RnFstRuckHrd: and now to install lucid again and hope it works this time :D00:54
RnFstRuckHrdI agree that the OS does not just magically work on all hardware but I cannot think of a reason to say, "we will design to NOT work on this one"00:54
James147although i really should go to bed00:54
RnFstRuckHrdJames147 - GL!!!00:54
James147RnFstRuckHrd: its not so much deskging it not to work on your, but one project has changed the way they work which is now incompatable with your hardware...00:55

diabolicalHow to add a command line text box to the taskbar?00:58
RnFstRuckHrdwell according to the article linked at the forum (i linked earlier) it shows something they were aware of. It seems they triaged it. I know that these things MUST happen and that is why new releases are constantly made. But at the hand of the day I am still the guy with the busted computer00:58
RnFstRuckHrdwhich is no fun00:58
LinuxGuy2009Hello Im working on a buntu multiboot DVD on launchpad and needed to know if on the live CD if the initrd file found in /casper is named either "/casper/initrd.lz" or "/casper/initrd.gz"? Would someone be so kind as to verify this for me?00:58
James147RnFstRuckHrd: but on the other hand they cannot keep package held back because it breaks one old mechiene or packages would never advance and newer mechienes might not work00:59
LinuxGuy2009For Lucid I mean of course01:00
RnFstRuckHrdLike I said - I know why they did but it does not change the fact that I got the short end of the stick (no stick at all rather). As I said before, I am a minority case but still a kubuntu user and disappointed with my experience01:01
James147RnFstRuckHrd: and i am not sure how they could implment an elegent system to stop some people upgrading01:01
diabolicalhow do i add a textbox like backtrack4 to my taskbar "01:01
RnFstRuckHrdOn the 10.04 overview page they link to known bugs, Why not link to known blacklisted machines?!01:01

RnFstRuckHrdNot to worry I will - don't misinterpret me (easy in IRC) I am not pissed and demanding compensation. What is done is done and I can fix it, I am just disappointed that have to fix it and that I cannot partake in the new 10.04 release. I do want to make sure that other people,  myself included do not find themselves high and dry like me after a "seemless" upgrade.01:04
RnFstRuckHrdAlthough next I am just going to test the LiveCD before going anywhere near that notification bubble asking if I want to upgrade ;-p01:04

vadi01_This is our first Long Term Support release featuring the KDE Plasma Desktop.???01:06
MidGeJust tried installing Lynx on a Dell Latitude D800...  seems to be working OK, except that the display is a bit dodgy and the mouse pointer is sort of duplicated!  Anyone else encountered this?01:06
vadi01_meaning there has never been a LTS for kubuntu?01:06
James147vadi01_: it is the first LTS with kde 401:07
RnFstRuckHrdMidGe - others are having hardware "disagreements" too. Pray for a workaround01:07
RnFstRuckHrdor figure it out and share ;-P01:07
James147vadi01_: the last lts for kubuntu was 6.04 i think01:07
markithi, 10.04 until recently recognized automatically my monitor resolution, now with recent updates does not anymore. Can someone confirm the bug and/or tell me how to solve? Google does not help (xrandr just does not see 1920x1080 res anymore among the available ones)01:07
MidGeRnFst..  ok...  i'll start praying even if I don't believe in it!  :)01:08
cirilloquick question: I just installed 10.04 after not having used Kubuntu for a couple years. The new KDE 4 is great, but I have one gripe: I made some frequently used applications as desktop shortcuts, but upon trying to resize them, they instantly go back to their original size. Is this a known bug? Or did I lock their sizes without knowing?01:08
RnFstRuckHrdI don't either - be glad you have graphics ata ll. The DEll 700M will not show a single thing - just black screen (whether its an upgrade, fresh install or livecd)01:09
RnFstRuckHrd^^^^ - MidGe01:09
James147cirillo: I have had a few widgets reset their posistion after movment, but they usually stick eventually (dosnt happen offten though)01:10
MidGeYes.. it seems to be working..  with the display problems..   i'll wait until I upgrade my other boxes01:10

saintlywith Windows XP only02:33
thegeek0100were able to add the controls in to kmix?02:33

thegeek0100volume is up and the mute is not checked.?02:36
saintlybut im tryin to talk, and its all turned up but not working02:36
thegeek0100do you have more than one sound card reported buy the system?02:37
saintlyyeah, so it would seem02:38
saintlyright now what is listed is HDA Intel MID02:38
thegeek0100what does multimedia say for communcations02:39
saintlyhow do i find that?02:40
thegeek0100click on your start button and type multimedia02:40
thegeek0100in the search02:40
thegeek0100it should show in the list02:40
=== dendro-afk is now known as dendrobates
thegeek0100its the sound adn video configuration tool.02:41
saintlyHDA Intel MID (ALC269 Analog)02:41
thegeek0100do you have any additional entries?02:42
thegeek0100below it.02:42

saintlyPlayback/Recording through  the Pulsaudio server02:44
saintlyand02:44
saintlyPulseAudio02:44
thegeek0100I would try moving each one to the top and see if the mic starts working.02:44
thegeek0100my first one to the top would be pulse audio.02:45
thegeek0100you may need to reboot to get the change to take effect.02:45
saintlyalright02:45
saintlybrb then02:45
thegeek0100k02:46
saintlyback02:51
saintlyi have an update02:51
thegeek0100what'cha got02:51
saintlyIt said that the ALC269 one doesnt work.02:51
saintlylike just said hey, were switching to this one02:51
thegeek0100one down.02:52
saintlylol02:54
saintlyand now it looks like my sound doesnt work either?02:54
thegeek0100nice02:55
saintlylol02:55
thegeek0100I would go ahead and try the next one.02:55
thegeek0100when all else fails we can go back to the original config.02:55
thegeek0100I also found it helpful to install pavdevchoose from apt-get or how ever you prefer.02:56
thegeek0100it is the pulse audio device chooser. it can shed some light on what your sound devices are doing.02:57
saintlyalright, ima reboot, then we can try pavdev choose.02:58
saintlywhat does it do, tell you which one works?02:58
thegeek0100it should in stall the pulse audio volume control which has an input devices tab that show a metter for sound.02:59
thegeek0100so evern if it is not connecting to the speakers you can ide the mic.03:00

thegeek0100did pick up a few later on.03:02
thegeek0100may be related to high server usage.03:02
Teknicalhrmm, wonder when ill get those .. i noticed my last reboot the kubuntu splash screen was in a low bit depth03:02
thegeek0100I was installing some other apps when it notified me. hower ever it was only for some encoders.03:03
saintlyshould i update? would that help this process at all03:03
saintlyupgrade*03:04
thegeek0100hard to say, my sound is working, including mic but I have a different sound card.03:04
K0HAXbtw, is it normal for me to be afraid of updating because I just "know" my sound will stop working? lol03:04
thegeek0100If it were me I would install clean with 10.04 and test the sound and mic upfont03:04
NJLis there a quick and easy solution to a "Distribution upgrade process exited with code 127" error from kpackagekit?03:05
thegeek0100check system monitor03:05
thegeek0100search for pack, apt03:05
thegeek0100if you have any of those processes running and you package manager is not then they may have apt locked.03:06
NJLI don't03:06
saintlywhat do you mean by update clean?03:06
NJLjust kpackagekit03:06
saintlywipe everything?03:06
thegeek0100install in a new partition on the hard drive.03:07
saintlyso i cant install over 9.1003:07
thegeek0100really I mean dual boot you current install with a new one of 10.0403:07
saintlybrb03:08
thegeek0100you can... but if things go bad, you will be worse off then you are now.03:08
saintlyhow so?03:08
thegeek0100if could kill your current install.03:08
saintlyalright, so what if i just drag my mouse up there and hit tht lil upgrade button03:08
thegeek0100do you have the important stuff backed up?03:09
saintlyall my important stuff is on a external HD03:09
saintlywill tht work?03:11
thegeek0100yes03:11
thegeek0100be brave, click the upgrade.03:11
thegeek0100I make no garantees of the outcome.03:11

len_Is there any way to limit neopmuk services/virtuoso/strigi cpu usage.   My computer has been running at 90% all day and is getting warm.   Is there anyway to tell how long strigi will take to finish indexing?06:10
Landgraf_Chellen_: my amd64 work automatic in eco mode06:12
Landgraf_Chelwithout any tuning06:12
len_In desktop search settings is says it is indexing my home hold, but that's about 80MB, and could take forever.  I'd like to know how far along it is, and how much work it will take to maintain the index.  It's going to be chugging around in the backround all the time pinning the cpu needle, I'll just disable it.  You should be able to set the max cpu usage for it though.  It should obviously be considered a very low priority activity.06:15
len_Landgraf_Ch,  I'm using amd64 too.  I'm not sure what that has to do with strigi though.   My CPU is not "HOT" as it danger of overheating, it just running hot enough to cause the CPU fan to run fast enough to be annoying.06:17
len_Usually I don't hear it.06:17
len_80GB home directory, I mean :)06:18
calumayooexcuse me, im trying to install lucid using the alternative iso and im trying to mount it cause i dont have a blank cd right now. cant work06:20
Landgraf_Chellen_: mayby just clean up cpu fan?06:20
calumayooit says that no medium found on /dev/sr006:21
Landgraf_Chellen_: no, best case  - disable desktop search06:22
len_CPU Fan is fine.  It is running like it is supposed to at the given CPU usage for such an extended period of time.  I'd just rather not allow strigi to take so much cpu.06:23
Landgraf_Chelwhy it for you?06:23
thegeek0100I see usb stick or cd. but not anything about just the iso06:23
cjaeI have a geforce 6200 card and I was very happy to hear about nouveau, I have a tv hooked up via s video but the vertical hold on the tv is out. How may I fix this?06:24

Landgraf_Chellen_: ok, i dont install still06:26
Landgraf_Chelstill 9.1006:27
Landgraf_Cheltoday i going06:27
calumayooive been trying it as i deem it similar for upgrading form 9.10 t 10.04...06:27
Landgraf_Chelthen will talking06:27
len_It didn't start indexing for me until after I upgraded to lucid.06:27
Landgraf_Chellen_: reinstall on clear hard06:28
thegeek0100I also found this one to install directly from iso "http://www.instantfundas.com/2007/08/install-any-linux-distro-directly-from.html"06:28
len_No need to do that.  I can just turn off indexing if it comes to that.06:29
len_I'd rather allow indexing though, but just limit its allowed cpu usage.06:29

I also have a 120 gig IDE in the mix somewhere that I use for storage and virtualbox's.. however at the moment I have no permission to create or do anything on the drive really? is there a proper way or a guide to show me how to set this up?

ktI'm using Kubuntu now06:42
sunk8kt, u tried Ubuntu One client?06:43
ktI'm using Ubuntu, but I dont know about "Ubuntu One Client"06:44
Landgraf_Chelwhy Ubuntu One kontent is mp3? why not free ogg?06:44
sunk8Err. In GNOME I have ubuntuone-client named package that installed a beautiful application which helped me sync all my folders with Ubuntu One. Wondering if something similar is available for kde...06:45
sunk8I wanna switch to a fresh Kubuntu on my PC. And don't want to install the GNOME client.06:45
kthmm, I don't know about that, I just came from MS OS :)06:46
sunk8lawl. It's been about 2 years since I saw the Windoze interface...06:47
sunk8kt, u atleast know about Ubuntu One services?06:47
kt:s06:48
ktyeah, it's good06:48
sunk8U use them online or sync with your desktop/apps too?06:48
FeasibilityStudyI am on suse now, but am thinking about Kubuntu.06:48
sunk8I believe they had a kubuntu client till some days back. And it seems to have vanished completely from the repos.06:49
ktI did not get you06:49
sunk8In Ubuntu, we just open the client app and click on connect. Log in and it synchronizes all files and folders from the 'Ubuntu One' folder in my home directory.06:50
sunk8We can just drag n drop folders there and they get syncd automatically.06:50
ktI c, I don't know about this thing06:51
sunk8It was installed by default in Ubuntu. Kubuntu had it in beta2 but now, it ain't here.06:52
sunk8removed from the repos06:52
ktdo you want me to check main?06:53
sunk8Can you try to install the package 'ubuntuone-client', and let me know what happens?06:54
ktI have synaptic-kde06:54
ktis it the same?06:54
sunk8tell me if it tries to install the GNOME version or pulls the kde one...06:54
moetunessunk8: this might help - http://linux.digitalsp.com/2009/12/installing-ubuntu-one-on-kubuntu-910.html06:56
ktI have "Ubuntu One client GNOME integration"06:57
sunk8moetunes. That's the issue. ubuntuone-client-kde existed in karmic, but is not there in lucid!06:58
moetuneso06:58
sunk8kt. It seems that we don't have a kde client yet for ubuntu one. It doesn't even show at the packages.ubuntu.com06:59
ktsunk8: I have this one, "Ubuntu One client GNOME integration" is it the same one?07:00
sunk8kt, na that one would install the GNOME client. It requires nautilus. Integrates with evolution, tomboy and rhythmbox. Seriously there's nothing similar available for KDE?07:01
moetunessunk8: if you ask later there might be more folk with an idea - us and europe are sleeping atm07:03

forgeneurre, not much you just get lower screenres, and a less usauble desktop08:44
neurreless usable in what ways?08:44
neurrecant i use the native screen resolution?08:44
syonforge: i was hoping for some different setup for the resource hogging background deamons ;)08:44
Mamarokforge: that is a matter of opinion08:44
Mamaroksyon: install the kubuntu-netbook-default-settings so you can tweak08:45
forgesyon I doubt it08:45
forgekubuntu netbook as I said is bigger, so theres more of it than the normal desktop08:45
forgeoddly enough08:45
=== forge is now known as ForgeAus
Mamarokbigger? How that bigger? The screen resolution is different, else it is basically the same08:46
ForgeAusMamarok: yeah same in concept, different in real-estate08:46
syonwicked. thanks guys for the quick help! maybe testing the Live ISO from a fast USB key will give me the cleanest experience08:46
ForgeAus(by that I mean screen real-estate, as in as much space on the screen as you would otherwise have to place apps/icons/etc...08:47
Mamaroksyon: also, for help about the netbook edition there is #kubuntu-netbook08:47
syonand if I like it, I know how to transition.08:47
* neurre thinks there is no such thing as fast usb key08:47
syon[09:34] <syon> sorry for cross posting, but #kubuntu-netbook is still sleepy ;-)08:47
MamarokForgeAus: why are you sonegative about? It is for small screens08:47
ForgeAusthe netbook remix is about the only thing I think that might justify using mac-like menu's08:47
Mamarokif you don't like it, don't use it08:47
ForgeAusMamarok: sorry I wasn't trying to sound negative08:47
Mamarokwell, you do08:47
ForgeAusand yes I agree its designed for smaller screens08:47
ForgeAus(which netbook computers generally have)08:48
Mamarokso if you have a high screen resolution it is definitely not for you, it is for netbooks, remember?08:48
neurrewell08:48
Mamaroknot for normal laptops08:48
ForgeAusneurre you can try it nothing to stop you08:48
syonneurre: there definitly are. especially compared to a (fast) HDD that has to go through LUKS on an atom ;-)08:48
neurrecant i customize font sizes and desktop the way i want it?08:48
ForgeAusjust be aware of the res thing, so you don't expect more out of it thats all...08:48
neurresyon, could you recommend me one?08:49
neurresyon, all i've tested have been a lot slower than HDD08:49
syonneurre: well, my comparison was not entirely fair... i was talkig about an unencrypted USB key vs. a LUKS-encrypted HDD through a rather slow atom08:49
neurreif i put smaller size fonts and icons and remove unnecessary desktop thingies i dont really use, what is there different then between netbook and normal?08:49
Mamarokneurre: that's the magic of KDE, you can make it look the same08:51
neurremy desktop (on xp) just some quicklaunch icons on the left (widescreen) and thats it, i dont need - or want - anything else on my desktop08:51
neurrein that sense, i dont understand "why netbook edition"08:51
Mamarokjust be aware of the performance restrictions of a netbook08:51
ForgeAusneurre becuase a kde desktop isn't suitable for a netbook08:51
Mamarokneurre: it is for netbooks, not for normal laptops, how difficult is that to understand?08:51
ForgeAusso they sliced it down to netbook so it fits nicer and works better for that type of computer08:52
syonneurre: Price comparison pages usually have also some speed comparison: http://skinflint.co.uk/  http://geizhals.at/eu/08:52
neurremamarok, it is difficult to understand because i dont use much at all any other features that the quicklaunch icons :D08:52
ForgeAussorry I should say the normal default KDE desktop is designed for desktop pc resolutions, kubuntu netbook is customized for another comptuer type so it suits the screen res far better, and work more efficiently with less pixelspace08:53
ForgeAusMamarok:  that wasn't negative was it?08:53
neurreyeah i know but im just nitpicking :)08:53
syon:-D08:53
neurreideally there would be just single edition which would automatically work in a good way in all resolutions08:54
neurresmaller resolution -> smaller fonts, less space wasted in gui things etc08:54
syonneurre: at least with KDE you *can* change things you want them. this is something I miss with GNOME, really.08:54
ForgeAusneurre, you should see the lengths the standard gnome-based ubuntu went to for its netbook remix08:54
ForgeAususing a completely different window manager...08:54
neurreoh dear08:55
ForgeAus(although I'm not sure if thats changed since then)08:55
syonForgeAus: Are they? Wow. Didn't know that.08:55
ForgeAusforgot the name of it08:55
ForgeAusstarted with h08:55
neurreno wonder im looking for kubuntu instead of ubuntu / gnome :D08:55
neurrebut ive only used kubuntu 9 a little on my home computer08:56
* syon fist of all updates to 10.04 and hopes that there is not too much interference with the additional KDE PPAs he pulled in.08:56
neurreit got the font sizes really wrong when i booted it to tv :D08:56
ForgeAusMatchbox is the name of the Ubuntu desktop for Ubuntu netbook remix from memory..08:56
ForgeAus(its essentialyl alternatives for metacity and gnome...08:57
ForgeAusthey're calling the window manager Maximus now I think, but it used to bee something else08:57
neurre3 mins left to download kubuntu-10.04 .. :)08:58
metelliusafter the upgrade my main panel has disappeared. the plasma desktop is still there, but the panel is not08:58
neurreim going to install kubuntu on vmware image..08:59
neurrei cant spare much more than maybe 50 or 60 GB08:59
eagles0513875hey Mamarok im connected to one of the mirrors via ftp where on the mirror would i find the iso available for download08:59
eagles0513875nm the mirror wont work :(09:00

syonthen releases/kubuntu/arch/...09:04
neurrei need update my vmware first :/09:04
FinnArild... so - I started the update to 10.04 as I was requested yesterday and went to bed. This morning, the kde screenblanker was on, and I could not get it off with my bluetooth key/mouse. I rebooted, and now I only get the shell login. This leaves me with 2 immediate questions:09:04
syonhang on... 10.04 first :-)09:04
FinnArild1: How could a update be so royally f***ed up?09:04
FinnArild2: How can I fix it.09:04
syonFinnArild: What kind of GFX card do you have?09:04
syondoes it need a special driver?09:05
syonsuch as newer ATI  / NVidia cards?09:05
FinnArildeh ... whatsitcaled again - the acer REVOLUTION it is ... It ran fine on my previous Kubuntu09:05
rethus10.04 out now. Is an upgrade without problems possible? anyone try it?09:05
FinnArildsyon: it's a ION09:05
kaddiis there are a list if known problems with 10.04 somewere?09:06
syonFinnArild: hmhm, htat might need nvidias drivers09:06
syonmore information could be found from the shell through having a look at /var/log/Xorg.0.log09:06
FinnArildsyon: yes - it definitely does. But whyever should that be a problem?09:06
FinnArildsyon: it ran fine just before the upgrade?09:07
syoni.e.: log in, then "less /var/log/Xorg.0.log"09:07
syonand check for any errors09:07
syonmaybe the driver was not properly installed through the update09:07
syonthis is somewhat tricky with the closed-source drivers09:07
ForgeAusthats weird the default desktop for UNE (ubuntu netbook remix) looks kinda mac-like... purplish colour for the desktop anyway...09:07
FinnArildsyon: failed to load module nvidia - module does not exist!09:08
FinnArildbut09:08
FinnArildwhy does an upgrade fuck that up?09:08
FinnArildand09:09
FinnArildHow do I fix it?09:09
eagles0513875!language FinnArild09:09
FinnArildsorry09:09
FinnArildforgot the ***09:09
FinnArild:)09:09
eagles0513875its ok09:09
syonyou could try to do an online update09:09
FinnArildsyon: how would I do this from shell?09:10
syonhang on.. if you did an update.. it should have all the newest packages already09:10
syonsudo apt-get update09:10
* FinnArild had a perfectly running kubuntu system09:10
syonsudo apt-get dist-upgrade09:10
neurrenow i guess i need to reboot a couple of times first in order to get vmware updated..09:10
rethus10.04 out now. Is an upgrade without problems possible? anyone try it?09:10
FinnArildah09:10
* neurre is going to make a fresh install..09:11
FinnArild*dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem. *09:11
syonah. that may explani things09:11
syonjust do that09:11
FinnArild... which means that it wasn't quite finished when I turned off stuff09:11
FinnArildnow - THAT was helpful :)09:11
FinnArild(but poor grandma trying to run her own linux ;) ...)09:11
eagles0513875lol09:11
syonhehe. tell her how to use IRC ;-)09:12
syonand that we're nice folks ;-)09:12
* FinnArild is not the grandma - it was just an image popping into my head :)09:12
FinnArildI know you are nice. It is me who is frustrated :)09:12
syonFinnArild: if you were, you would have been the first grandma on IRC i know :)09:13
FinnArildsyon: don't say that - my sister is actually on IRC and she's just become a grandma.09:14
syonnow my upgrade just bailed out with a non-helpful error message. "Error 1: bla bla bla" I guess I need more control. from the terminal :)09:14
14WAALGOIhii guys.. i want to talk to someone who has done a fresh install of lucid and is free enough to help me with my naive questions/doubts :-)09:15
syonFinnArild: I did not say that were no grandmas in IRC ;-)09:15
FinnArild:)09:15
syoneagles0513875: is there a manual for the fancy "!" things somewhere?09:15
adsSo, any known trouble upgrading from 9.10?09:16
adsOr should i risk taking a backup and hit the upgrade button?09:16
kaddiads I think I'm gonna wake a little longer. Personally.. Not many seem to have upgraded yet09:18
Dr_Euphoniumgreetings09:18
kaddiads you can check known issues in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LucidLynx/ReleaseNotes09:18
Mamarokkaddi: I am on Lucid since the last Alpha09:18
Mamarokads: there should be no big problems09:19
adskaddi: same for me, i think. Backup takes a day ...09:19
Mamarokbut a good idea is to use a separate partition for your /home, so you ca do a fresh install very easily09:19
Mamarokcan* do09:19
adsMamarok: this laptop has a full encrypted harddisk, so i need a full backup anyway.09:20
Mamarokads: yes, then you have no other choice09:20
adsquestion is, if i use the following weekend or the weekend after09:21
floownhello09:22
ForgeAusok well nowerdays its metacity + maximus, formerly was Matchbox + Hildon09:22
ForgeAussorry, lol old convo09:22
ForgeAuswas looking for the name Hildon, took till now to find it!09:22
oxymoronMamarok: "kstartupconfig4 does not exist or failed. The error code is 3. Check your install" That started to happen after I installed my /home partition on a new partition and mounted it, weird? :S09:23
syonForgeAus: interesting!09:23
=== ben___ is now known as Guest38843
floownI have upgrade too Lucid, quite perfect. The only things I have to notice is the ugly boot. How can I change the resolution for grub?09:24
Mamarokoxymoron: did you create the partition and then moved afterwards? That's not really a good idea, you should backup your /home and restor it on the new partition09:24
ForgeAusactually its not the netbook edition its the mobile remix... hmmm... maybe I got it confused...09:24
MamarokForgeAus: Hildon was a mobile phone desktop, not a netbook one09:25
ForgeAuskde also has a mobile desktop too, I wonder if its related to its netbook desktop?09:25
oxymoronMamarok: No, I created my partition before a clean install of Kubuntu 10.04 LTS and then choosed it for my /home folder.09:25
ForgeAusMamarok:  yeah, I just noticed that...09:25
Mamarokoxymoron: that should work out of the box though09:25
Mamarokoxymoron: I guess it'ŝ not related to the separate partition, but something went wrong with your installation09:26
ForgeAusso the diff is Hildon (for mobile) vs Maximus (for netbook)?09:26
=== 14WAALGOI is now known as Life_40
MamarokForgeAus: I don't know about the Gnome netbook, I only know that Hildon is the maemo desktop for mobile devices09:26
Mamarokactually, was, it's quite old already09:26
oxymoronMamarok: Then another annoying problem. If I dont activate proprietary nvidia driver then I cannot activate desktop effects and use OpenGL for Cairo Dock (Required for transparency), but IF I do then plymouth resolution of logo and everything is going blurry and noisy, that didnt happen before when nouveau took care of my resolution and all.09:27
ForgeAusyeah well its not gnome, its hildon, but Ubuntu used it for its mobile (and yes it is what maemo uses... )09:27
Mamarokoxymoron: I don't have a NIVDIA card, no problem here iwth the free Radeon driver on ATI09:27
ForgeAusI don't know what Kubuntu mobile (if there is such a thing) uses...09:27
MamarokForgeAus: maemo's Hildon is Gnome based, actually GPE based09:27
oxymoronMamarok: There have been problem with nVidia since I dont know in 10.04 from alpha un upstreams.09:28
MamarokForgeAus: MeeGo I guess? So far there is no mobile version for KDE09:28
ForgeAusMamarok:  IC, thats probably why Ubuntu used it for its mobile vers since its Gnome based...09:28
=== Life_40 is now known as Brick
Mamarokoxymoron: I know why I avoid NVIDIA since quite some time :)09:28
oxymoronMamarok: I know why I avoided ATI for quite some time xD And this wasnt the case :D09:29
ForgeAushttp://kde-look.org/content/show.php?action=content&content=98312&PHPSESSID=cae ???09:30
Mamarokoxymoron: file a bug, not much I can do about that09:30
MamarokForgeAus: what is this about?09:30
oxymoronMamarok: Youre just lucky because ATI choosed OpenSOurce and the team took care of the drivers fast xD And you should actually thank nVidia for that, I dont think ATI would go OpenSOurce if they didnt feel like they were going under, which they almost did.09:31
ForgeAusMamarok: I dunno just... looking... learning, you know.. general knowledge I guess09:31
BrickGuys how is the new Lucid.. is nepomuk a pain .. i have heard it would be enabled by default... and it is actually a huge resource sucker09:31
MamarokForgeAus: have you seen the date? Also, this is by no means official, and it's apparently still Qt3, so totally obsolete anyway09:31
oxymoronMamarok: And its not quite a bug, its a nvidia driver issue xD09:31
Mamarokoxymoron: which is a bug, or how else would you call that?09:32
MamarokBrick: well, then just disable it09:32
syonMamarok: You can't09:32
Mamarokif you don't rely on filtering by tags you don't need it anyway09:32
syonIf you want to use KMail etc.09:32
oxymoronMamarok: Incompetent programmers on nVidia team? :D09:32
Mamaroksyon: rubbish, that is Akonadi, he is talking about Nepomuk09:32
BrickMamarok: but is it really a resource hog in lucid too09:32
syonMamarok: Isn't that the same? Or at least intertwined?09:33
Mamaroksyon: Kontact needs Akonadi, not Nepomuk which is the Semantic Desktop09:33
Mamaroksyon: not at all, Akonadi is the underlying database structure09:33
Bricksyon: thanks but nepomuk and akonadi are nowhere related09:33
MamarokBrick: as I said, don't activate it then09:33
Mamarokunless you want to be able to filter by tags, then you need it09:34
Mamarokbut I bet you don't have tagged your text files yet :)09:34
BrickMamarok: cool .... i asked "is it? " and not" it is?"09:34
MamarokBrick: yes it is, since it needs to index files to be useable09:35
=== jfelipe is now known as jfelipe_afk
Mamarokso either you reduce the number of files it indexes, which makes it pointless, or you live with the ressource drwaback, or you disable it09:35
Brickguys also please suggest me a cool efficient netbook.. I was thing of vaio but it is just not great and I seriously dont know if Kubuntu will work on it09:35
BrickThanks Mamarok:09:36
MamarokBrick: there is a Netbook edition for kubuntu09:36
Mamarokdon't expect a netbook to run a full fledged KDE, netbooks are not as powerfull as a laptop09:36
BrickI know not the right forum to ask but still what would be a good netbook to have09:36
Mamarokif you want power, don't buy a netbook09:36
syonMamarok: I remember I had to enable Nepomuk for sth when upgrading to the latest KDE PPA on 9.1009:37
Mamaroksyon: certainbly not09:37
Mamarok-b09:37
syonMamarok: well the whole thing was a pain. maybe I superflously activated it.09:37
Bricksyon: noo not possible.. i did upgrade to kde 4.4.2 from karmic and no no nepomuk was needed.. i tried activating it once but it was like eating up the entire thing..09:38
BrickMamarok: ok so what would be the most pwerful netbook.. although not the right forum to ask09:38
syonfolks, just one fact. I just checked: it was activated. and I did not do it because i was a semantic desktopper ;-)09:38
syonwell, maybe I felt lucky the other day :-)09:39
Bricksyon: I give up...!09:39
Brick:-)09:39
syonBrick: With what?09:39
Bricksyon: sorry multitasking error.. it was supposed to be typed elsewhere09:40
MamarokBrick: indeed, this is not the right channel to ask for hardware09:40
syonBrick: No worries.09:40
BrickMamarok: come one where else could i find the best geeks on earth , about a great netbook to run my Kubuntu(so does that make it seem like a Kubuntu question now.. i guess yes)09:41
MamarokI no nothing about netbooks, but there are a lot of review sites out there, did you Google for it?09:41
Brickyes i did and no nothing much around...! by the way how is this new memenu thing09:42
Brickdoes gwibber run it here too or do we have choqok here09:42
syonBrick: As a sidenote: The slightly larger non-netbooks with VIA Nano and AMD CPUs have more power, maybe supporting a better KDE feel.09:43
FinnArildso I read something about the KDE screenblanker being gone from 10.04 - does this mean I loose my beloved ascii-aquarium?09:43
Bricksyon: thanks will check that out09:43
MamarokBrick: KDE uses Choqok09:44
FinnArildAlso - one of the things reported missing was bluetooth - does this mean I will be in bluetooth keyboard/mouse hell again?09:44
Brickso you mean to say memenu in kde uses choqok Mamarok:09:44
MamarokFinnArild: it's just not on the CD, you can still isntall it kscreensaver and kscreensaver-extras09:44
FinnArildMamarok: I update online09:44
MamarokBrick: memenu would be what? The microblogging client is Choqok09:44
FinnArildCD is SO 199809:45
oxymoronMamarok: This is weird, if I enable XRender instead of OpenGL everything works. But with OpenGL in system settings => desktop => advanced I cannot enable composite xD09:45
MamarokFinnArild: well, you need it for a fresh install, that or a USB stick09:45
BrickFinnArild: and then you can feed all the fish there and possibly i can feed on them too09:45
FinnArildMamarok: usb stick - now we're into this century, at least :)09:45
Bricknow listening to mamarok's answer.. do we have something called the memenu in Kubuntu 10.04 like that in Gnome(Ubuntu)09:46
syonFinnArild: Asciiaquarium is amazing, didn't know about it.09:46
MamarokBrick: what is the memenu in the first place? I never use Gnome, how am I suppoed to know what you are talking about?09:47
Bricksyon: so you too are getting some fish fries for me09:47
syonhttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/MeMenu09:47
MamarokBrick: there is a Semantivc Desktop plasma widget09:48
BrickMamarok: you never told me you never used Gnome , so how was i supposed to know you never knew about it....yes that link from syon: just might help you a little09:48
BrickSemantic Desktop plasma widget.. what is that09:48
FinnArildsyon: so - now update finished, I get to the login screen - and it tries to log in, crashes and presents me with the login screen again.09:49
Bricksyon: do we have it in kubuntu the memenu09:49
FinnArildsyon: which logfile to check this time?09:49
FinnArildsyon: (nvidia seems to work fine)09:49
MamarokBrick: no, memenu is not needed, did you read what I told you?09:49
Mamarokit's called openDesktop09:49
BrickMamarok: what has open desktop got to do with memenu09:50
Mamarok*sigh*09:50
MamarokBrick: do you really want to use KDE?09:50
Mamarokcheck that widget out first09:51
BrickMamarok: how old are you... you get tired so soon :-).. relax dude checking09:51
syonFinnArild: Mhmhm, that is very odd.09:52
syonFinnArild: I'd suggest to keep checking the Xorg.0.log09:52
MamarokBrick: you are asking questions about Gnome stuff in a KDE related channel, that's the point09:52
syonbut maybe this time the older one, I assume your Xserver is crashing after login09:52
Mamarokso if you want to use KDE, don't expect Gnome applications09:52
FinnArildsyon: I'll tail -f it while logging in09:53
syonok09:53
syonFinnArild: Anything interesting?09:53
FinnArildsyon: not anything that pops out;: http://pastebin.com/Pum9yqvU09:54
BrickMamarok: there is a difference between features and applicatiions...this memenu was designed by mark shuttleworth himself and Yes i would love to have that feature in KDE too .. and if you dont know please let others answer09:54
FinnArildsyon: I have a feeling this is in KDE09:55
FinnArilds/in/with/09:55
SandGorgonin KDE 4.4.2 on Kubuntu 10.04, I see that almost every app throws this error on the cmdline (http://paste.ubuntu.com/425112/). is there something wrong with my install ?09:55
Ender2070the memenu is a gnome turd09:56
Ender2070go ask in #ubuntu09:56
MamarokBrick: did you try to install it?09:56
FinnArild... tailing kdm.log09:56
Mamarokand wether it is designed by god himself or not, it is a Gnome app09:56
FinnArildoook09:57
Mamarokalso, since there are apparently no packages for it, I guess it doesn't even exist yet09:57
BrickEnder2070: would be great if you could say cheese and not interfere if you dont want to answer.. and yes you can leave the channel toooooooooo09:57
FinnArildso now I got some errors, just not sure what they mean: http://pastebin.com/kipaYhSV09:57
BrickExactly Mamrok: finally you answered what i wanted to know09:58
MamarokBrick: you should maybe rethink that you are in a KDE related channel, so asking about theoretical Gnome apps is not the right place09:58
Brickwhy09:58
MamarokBrick: also insulting others is not the right way to start with, seriously09:58
FinnArildbesides, Gnome sucks ...09:59
MamarokFinnArild: behave :)09:59
FinnArild.oO(was that out loud?)09:59
Ender2070Qt apps > gtk apps09:59
MamarokOK folks, this is a support channel, not about what is better or worse, please remember that :)09:59
Bricki guess good things should be learnt  although i too agree that gnome sucks09:59
mavalladDoes someone know how to get the win key mapped?10:00
FinnArild... so - what is ibus anyway?10:00
MamarokBrick: for off topic discussions like that I suggest #kubuntu-offtopic10:00
Buckyhingo, i'm trying to switch from ubuntu to kubuntu10:00
MamarokBucky: install the kubuntu-desktop package is a good start10:00
Buckybut basically i don't know anything about kde!10:00
MamarokBucky: well, what do you want to know?10:01
BrickMamarok: I appreciate your suggestion  but did i ask you to discuss this with me10:01
MamarokBrick: please stay on topic10:01
Bricklol10:01
Buckywhere i can get some info? for example:10:01
Brick@Mamarok:10:01
Buckywhat is nepomuki? and akonadi??10:02
MamarokBucky: your example?10:02
Mamarokwhat exactly do you wnat to know?10:02
Mamarokwant*10:02
Buckywhat those 2 name means?10:02

a_h_rothI have a silly question: how do I fix my Kubuntu Lucid splash screen?  It currently displays in VGA with 256 colors, instead of beautiful rich interpolated colors and sized to my screen, the way that it does off of the LiveCD.  If it helps: my build of Lucid was upgraded from Karmic to one of the Lucid betas, and I've run apt-get upgrade ever since.  The rest of Lucid is great, but this splash screen is mildly annoying.  As silly as I feel12:17
a_h_rothabout complaining about this: any tips?12:17

tasslehoffa_h_roth: thx for checking. the gzip version is the same as in 9.10, so I wonder where the error could be. can't think of a workaround ..12:23

karurubut i can hear the sound of multiple programs, if i run the dragon player and amarok at the same time i hear both soundstreams12:25

a_h_roththeuros1: more configurable.12:28

ubottuUbuntu Netbook Remix is a slightly altered version of Ubuntu, optimised for small screens. For more information, please see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UNR - support in #ubuntu14:20
pookitothanks for answering.  But no.  I downloaded an .img file from ubuntu it was the netbook version.  when I use the "usb creator" it does not work14:20
moetuneswill have a link for using the .img14:20
moetunes https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UNR14:20
pookitoThanks Moetunes, but I did that.  for some reason the .img file does not want to be read by the "usb creator"  that came preinstall with kubuntu14:23
pookitoMoetunes: i tried it with unetbooting and still did not work.  I did a little research before I got here.  Is there anything else that I am not doing right? or missing?14:24
moetunespookito: I've never tried the unr but believe there is an ubuntu app for putting the .img on usb14:24
zusmoetunes,  i guess what i meant to ask was will i be using the karmic ppa's and  repositories or is there a lucid one? i found this  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu14:25
pookitomoetunes: yes there is, I thought it was the "usb-creator" but it does not work? :(14:25
moetunespookito: afaik there is an app solely for the unr .img14:25
moetuneszus: since lucid is released I thought that link would point you to lucids repos...14:26

syonfinally the upgrad finnished. just one glitch so far: with LUKS (and LVM) there is no splash, but rather just a text mode prompt for my password input14:28
syonany pointers?14:28
Kriss3dsyon,  well i havent tried the new 10.04 yet but the login manager should give you an option for it14:28
Kriss3dfor logging on via a gui14:28
moetuneszus: the upgrade should have changed the repos listed in the package manager for you and medibuntu is the same for all afaik14:30

ubottumedibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org14:30

Kriss3dim not having much success with graphics drivers and how to install them.14:32
moetunesKriss3d: you can login and check the X log to find out what;s up14:32
moetuneswhat's*14:32
Kriss3dwell its not my computer and the computer is across the contry.. so im not sitting at it.. not making that easier either.. but aparently it shows the kubuntu logo then stops.. not freezing but just sorta hangs14:33

wtfplymouthafter trying 2 hours of skipping mountig errors during boot im giving up and using debian on my server14:34
moetunesKriss3d: they could press   ctrl+alt+f2   login and do   cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | less   to find the error14:34
moetuneswtfplymouth: something wasn't setup right?14:35
Kriss3dmoetunes,  ty. ill be sure to pass that along and see if it will let him go to that.. alt crtl F2.. isnt athat just switching to another terminal ? wouldnt crtl alt F1 work as well ? cause thats not working14:36
wtfplymouthmoetunes: sure i have a wrong fstab entry but i want it to skip this one automatically at boot and not to stop the boot14:36
Kriss3dor did i miss somthing ? like the first terminal is the gui ?14:36
moetunesKriss3d: f prob would be ok14:36
moetuneswtfplymouth: but /proc and /sys are mounted from fstab iirc14:37
moetunesKriss3d: f1 prob would be ok I meant14:37
wtfplymouthmoetunes: its just an entry for an usb disk which isnt connected14:38
Kriss3dwell i was told that F1 didnt do anything..14:39
wtfplymouthmoetunes: 9.10 booted anyway14:39
moetuneswtfplymouth: normally if an fstab mount isn't available it just gets skipped14:39
Kriss3dbut ill just see what works.. hopfully i can get it into recovery mode.14:39
moetunesKriss3d: sorry - f1 was short for ctrl+alt+f114:39
wtfplymouthmoetunes: normally, but not in 10.0414:39
moetuneso14:40
Kriss3dyeah.. i know what you meant.. but i was told earlier today that ctrl alt f1 didnt do anything..14:40
Kriss3dbut ill see what works later when i talk to the owner again14:40
moetunesKriss3d: maybe with kdm running and using its' internal xorg.conf the keyboard is borked14:41
wtfplymouthmoetunes: the problem is that it stops the boot and i cnnot login with ssh14:41
Kriss3dwell if it at least will boot up i should be able to get it working again without having to do a fresh install14:41
moetunesKriss3d: try the recovery boot option - it is cli14:42
Kriss3disnt ctrl alt f1 the recovery ?14:42
Kriss3dotherwise i dont know how to get it into that14:42
moetunesKriss3d: no - just a tty/cli14:43
moetunesKriss3d: hit shift at boot14:43
Kriss3dah yeah.. im on a windows now.. sadly wine + this laptop + wow isnt really running well14:43
Kriss3dmoetunes,  ty ill tell him to do that14:43
moetuneswtfplymouth: don't know what else to say except bummer...:[14:43
moetunesKriss3d: if the grub menu shows at boot it should be an option14:44

RnFstRuckHrdHello all - found this article yesterday, which explains why my upgrade to 10.04 yesterday killed my laptop. Apparently the Dell Inspiron 700M has been blacklisted? See article and link inside article ( http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1461029 ) Can anyone give me an idea if this is something that will change with future updates, or is my laptop stuck on Karmic for the remainder of its days?17:21
ghoulsbladeZhenya,  it also says that if that doesn't work you should reinstall the kubuntu-desktop  package17:21
Zhenyaright17:21
Zhenyaok i'm going to work for a while17:21

muffin2Hello17:57
saintlyhi17:57
muffin2I put kubuntu 10.04 lucid on my usb drive.17:57
saintlygive it here. lol17:58
muffin2And a blank screen appears after I enter either "install kubuntu" or "try without install"17:58
cirilloQuick question: My Windows 7 computer has no username/passwords on its network shares. As in, when I access the shares from another windows box, I simply set my workgroup to HOME (the workgroup of the PC) and it lets me browse the shares, free of any login credentials. When I try to use Dolphin, it asks for a username and password. I set my workgroup in /etc/samba/smb.conf to HOME, and restarted, but dolphin still wants me to authenticate with a17:58
cirillo username/password that I don't have17:58
muffin2The same happens when I boot it on cd.17:58
muffin2I have X1250 graphic card.17:58
muffin2Is it a problem?17:58
saintlydont know what to tell ya muffin217:59
muffin2This thing never works well.17:59
muffin2Maybe I should stick to virtualbox.17:59
muffin2Linux hardware support sucks17:59
cirillomuffin2: have you tried different graphic configurations. I think it's F4 to set different graphics settings18:01
muffin2cirillo : I didn't try.18:01
cirillomuffin2: Try a different graphics setting. If that doesn't work, you may need to try the alternate CD, since that card requires proprietary ATI drivers which are not included with Kubuntu and must be installed manually18:03
muffin2damn18:03
muffin2radeonhd?18:03
muffin2I don't know how to make kubuntu use radeonhd driver on console.18:04

oxymoronCould someone explain this for me: "You don't have permission to access / on this server." (HTTP 403 Error)? :S In error log it tries to access ~/.htaccess but that isnt the document root for my enabled site, my root is ~/projects. I HATE THIS, same freaking problem every single time installing apache and never remember what the problem is. Could be some kind of permission porblems with root folder, but I have access to it, not18:09
oxymoronsure what user group apache2 uses? :S18:10
oxymoronIs www-data used this days?18:19
adc_hey i'm back ^^18:21
GNU\colossusoxymoron: www-data:www-data is what the apache process effectively runs under, yes18:21
rosco_ytesting18:21
GNU\colossusoxymoron: have a look at mpm-itk if you intend to change that.18:21
adc_been trying several things on my boot with grub, and finaly fixed something because i've get 10 secondes of intialisation text ^^18:21
oxymoronGNU\colossus: I dont intend to change that, but I am trying to change my freaking Document Root by "a2ensite" command but www-data only point to that /var/www18:22
adc_i have a question : who is using kubuntu here and has the whole startup time long the initialisation text instead of a black screen ?18:22
GNU\colossusoxymoron: if you're after serving some static files via HTTP only, apache might be overkill for you anyway18:23
rosco_yWhy do I get 404 messages when I try to ask a question in the #mysql session?18:23
oxymoronGNU\colossus: No I am after a LAMP-server for developing my framework. I got this freaking 403 Access Denied everytime I install apache2 once again and I hate it. I want to know how to solve it?18:24
adc_http://www.yeap.de/blog2.0/uploads/kubuntu/startup.png18:24
adc_does some body see that while booting kubuntu from the hard drive ?18:24
GNU\colossusoxymoron: the apache error log should provide more info on the specific reason. it may either be a permission problem in your file system, or a configuration problem for the URI you're requesting.18:24
adc_because i did when i ran kubuntu from an usb key, and since i'm on hard drive, nothing while it starts18:25
bjornkontact/kmail doesn't work at all for me on 10.04.  it complains "kontact(8967)/libakonadi Akonadi::SessionPrivate::socketError: Socket error occurred: "QLocalSocket::connectToServer: Connection refused""18:25

ForgeAusubuntu is kubuntu  essentially18:51
ForgeAus(in this respect anyway)18:51

ForgeAushardy kde3 remix is harder to find than I thought!19:04
geniiForgeAus: Hardy came with both KDE3 and KDE419:06
geniieg: There was no remix19:07
ForgeAusuh?...19:07
ForgeAusit only came with one that I know of... prolly the release where they replaced KDE3 with KDE4...19:07
ForgeAus(original may have been kde3 maybe kde4 is the remix?)19:07
geniiForgeAus: Yes it was during the transition period, 8.04 came originally with kde319:08
ForgeAusI think its more likely the opposite way around19:08
ForgeAuskde4 was the normal kde3 was remix19:08
geniiNope19:08
ForgeAusgenii? hmmm..19:08
ForgeAusyour telling me if I get the basic hardy desktop.iso it has kde3?19:09
ForgeAusKubuntu has come with two different releases, one is the stable KDE 3.5.9 and the other one is a Remix Featuring the latest release of KDE 4.0.19:10
ForgeAus3.5.9? wait there was kde3 after 3.5.9 why hardy then?19:11
ForgeAuswouldn't 3.5.10 (is there a later 3.5.x?) be better?19:11
ForgeAusGenii looks like kde4 was the remix... thats good news.. .19:12
madurathe new release has a bug in the installer pressing whats this makes the installer crash19:13
geniiForgeAus: The kde3 version which shipped with Hardy was something like 3.5.8 which you could get up to 3.5.10 by normal updates. then if you wanted kde4 the package names all had "4" somewhere in them19:13
ForgeAusyeah like kmail-kde419:13
ForgeAusand kpackage-kde4, etc...19:13
geniiForgeAus: Yes, exactly19:13
ForgeAusif you got the one without *-kde4 you had kde3 package...19:14

ForgeAus(there is also java applets on the web, and other ways... like kvirc for example )19:16
thegeek0100that's weird as kopete calls out irc in its description in kpackagekit19:17
ForgeAusmeebo I think its called is a multi-im page, can't remember if IRC is there or not tho...19:17
ForgeAusthats all assuming you want some kinda gui... you can always get irssi for a console-based IRC19:17

ForgeAusuh as for integration with ubuntu1 howlymowwly, there is probably some but not as much as ubuntu (the default gnome one)19:31
maduraJames147: there are ways in new motherboards to skip some tests19:31
James147madura: its a fairly old comp now19:31
James147madura: and i think it is set to skip most test, but i probally should check19:32
maduraJames147: anyways any oldie would do ok with a linux distro :)19:32
howlymowlyForgeAus: any hint on where to look for it :)?19:32
ForgeAusis there a way to skip age-based fscking for kubuntu?19:32
mvkanyone?19:32
James147madura: its not old enough to not run win7 :)   but i prefure kubuntu19:33
maduraJames147: win7 is crap :P19:33
James147ForgeAus: I think you ahve to set someoptions on the paritions19:33
ForgeAushowlymowly https://one.ubuntu.com/features/  shows stuff thats integrated, you'd have to test out stuff like kubuntu equivs like kde-pim's mail/organizer instead of evolution ... for example19:33
madurawell comparing to other MS OSes its better but still...19:34
James147madura: yeah, but i only have it for running games (and its a striped down version without all the blaot)19:34

cuzntwhen one update via terminal is there a port to open to make it go faster?19:34

maduraJames147: :P  then what would u prefer?19:36
James147cuznt: dont think opening a port would make it go faster.... keep in mind that the server are probally overloaded atm with everyone else trying to upgrade. If you can i suggest changing mirror19:37
James147madura: not really the place to discuss that :)19:37

ScuniziWhat's a good client to use for VPN I tried KvpnC but it has unmet dependencies which I've installed but aren't recognized.19:38
maduraJames147: im busy downloading plasma themes :D19:38
James147cuznt: the packagemanagment system will fist dl all the packages then instal so if it gets intrupted during the dl it can continus where it left off without redownloading much (but 8 hours, that seems alot)19:39
ForgeAushowlymowly:  I aren't looking to use it but it'll be interesting, the biggest problem is likely to be the dependancies of ubuntuone...19:39
James147Scunizi: got vpn over pptp to work with knetworkamanger today :p19:40
ForgeAusprobably downloads lots of gnome bits for it to work19:40
cuznti thought as much but it is just as slow with the manager. i figured with no front end it might complete faster19:40
ScuniziJames147: yea.. I've got pptp installed and pppd but I switched out knetworkmanager for WiCD because WiCD allowed me to set a static IP on my machine where knetworkmanager wouldn't19:40
James147cuznt: the download speed wont change much via command line or gui front end... command line is just faster from start to finish :)19:41
howlymowlyForgeAus: the great thing about Ubuntuone in my opinion is, that it hold sthe promise of free contacts/notes/mail sync across many desktops including mobile phone (I have an android device for example) without compromising "data monster" effects like with google, facebook apple etc...19:41

ForgeAusmadura, why?19:46

ForgeAusI've used it before19:46
sandipnairhi everybody19:46
ForgeAus(or aquamarine perhaps)19:46
maduraForgeAus: does compiz 0.8.4 work well with the kde decorator?19:47
cuzntcrap my update is locked is there a command to fix that please?19:47
* cuznt is having issue day19:47
ForgeAusuh, not sure I can answer that question specifically...19:47
ForgeAusI don't see why it wouldn't19:47
ForgeAuswhich kde are you using?19:47
sandipnaircan anybody help me with WengoPhone installation?19:47
rogersman1madura: I know what you mean and compiz is working on this issue...but not yet :-(19:47
ForgeAusbecause kde3 reqs a plugin for the panel and compiz really isn't necessary on kde419:47
maduraForgeAus: KDE 4.419:48
rogersman10.9 will support19:48
James147cuznt: close any packagemanagment system you ahve open (apt-get aptitude kpackagemanager)19:48
madurarogersman1: thanks, when will 0.9 come?19:48
ForgeAusyou use (wm) -replace which reduces the functinality of the KDesktop because it replaces kwin19:48
madurakwin is ok but i prefer compiz19:49
rogersman1madura: hehe they hate that question! ... tho to be honest kde native effects are pretty good...sure you need compiz?19:49
cuznti am trying to I get the error it can not get an exclusive lock. there is a command for that.19:49
ForgeAusnot taht I don't like compiz but it sits ok wtih kde3 or gnome or some other window manger... but KDE4 has its own desktop effects, etc...19:50
James147cuznt: if you are sure no other packagmanament programs are running you can delte the lock file19:50
James147cuznt: (cant remember where it is, one sec)19:50
madurarogersman1: 1. i miss compiz :P 2. kwin doesnt have that reflex thing that we can attach a image and  give the reflection from that..etc19:51
rogersman1madura: yeah, i spent ages trying this whole emerald, aurora, etc trying to get kde and compiz to work harmoniously with no joy...either wait for 0.9 or stick with kwin IMHO19:52
rogersman10.9 is a complete reworking of compiz-fusion from the ground up...so might be a long while until stable19:53
madurarogersman1: yeap me too :P i even tried compiling 0.8.6 it loads up kde deco but theres a fat border :S19:53
maduraon the mean time i want that reflex plugin for kwin lol19:54
James147cuznt: what was the full error message?19:54
cuzntUnable to get exclusive lock19:55
cuzntThis usually means that another package management application (like apt-get or aptitude) is already running. Please close that application first.19:55
rogersman1madura: put in a feature request for kwin group if u like!19:55
cuznti got it thanks james14719:56
James147cuznt: :)19:56
madurayeap i should put one on19:56
ForgeAusI've been thinking of a few feature requests, like mostly for transparent window decorators, stuff like animation and/or filter-based stuff say colour-cycling ...19:57
ForgeAus(or magnify)19:58
rogersman1madura: compiz projects looks pretty dead actually...web page hasn't been updated since Feb 2009! :-(19:58
madurarogersman1: yea free project suffer that kinda non working periods19:59
madurai think someone will make a patch or something in the future19:59
ForgeAuslol I was checking out XFCE, compiz on that is a strange concept!20:00
maduralol20:00
maduralow end desktop high end bling!20:00
ForgeAusapparently XFCE has its own compositing anyway20:01
madurai havent used it often20:01
ForgeAusmadura I could go lower... like say fluxbox + compiz?20:01
maduraForgeAus: :P just get the new KDE20:02
moetunesForgeAus: flux and compiz are both wms - so you can't run both20:02
ForgeAusdoesn't look like Canonical are going to take in the Fluxbuntu team as official anytime soon... oddly enough20:02
ForgeAusthey seem to be looking to a LXDE (Lubuntu) and possibly an Enlightenment (e17) ubuntu (something like elbuntu)20:02

swien@body You started the computer. Then it either stuck or showed a desktop. Did you manually start X after it stuck?21:42
swien@boby before you grabbed the file?21:43
bobyok after boot (every time now happends) it offers me login21:43
bobyafter i type my user and pass21:43
bobyit pffers me again login21:43
James147pidus: You can assign a shotcut key to windows so that they gain focuse and move to th frount when its pressed21:43
bobythen I do console login21:43
bobyand login succesefully21:44

Henson_Dcould someone help me with a dolphin problem I've been encountering for some time?  I'm not sure if it's a bug or just a misconfiguration.  In Dolphin's column view, you used to be able to navigate by typing in the first few characters of a directory and hitting enter to open it in the next column over.  This used to work in 4.1, now with 4.2 it will work only for descending one directory level...21:44
bobythat's it21:44
Henson_Dthen further enter presses have no effect.21:44
swien@boby what happens if you do restart kdm? Are you able to login then?21:44
bobydidn't try21:45
Henson_Doops, sorry I meant it used to work in 4.0 through 4.3, but now in 4.4 it doesn't work.21:45
bobyshould I do now?21:45
swienjust run sud restart kdm21:45
swiensudo21:45
bobyok21:45
pidusJames147: I was looking for a shortcut to maximize/minimize a windows. Could configure it at System Settings -> Keyboard & Mouse ->Global Keyboard Shortcuts->kwin->maximize window.21:45
bobybe back in a minute21:45
pidusJames147: though, what you suggest will also help :-) thanks for that.21:46
James147Henson_D: looks like a bug, getting the same behaviour here but noticed that if you move the mouse then press enter it works21:46
Henson_DJames147: thanks for the confirmation.  I get the same behaviour here.  I can't believe this hasn't been fixed yet, it's been around for a long time and has persisted through many 4.4 updates.21:48
bobyi'm back21:49
Henson_DJames147: and I imagine it would drive anyone who uses column view mad :-)21:49
James147Henson_D: one quick question, what mouse focus policy do you use?21:49
Henson_DJames147: ahh, very good question.  I use focus strictly under mouse.21:49
swien@boby wb21:49
bobyafter sudo restart kdm offers me again login screen and when I enter my pass it offers login again21:49
bobyI kill kdm21:50
bobyand startx21:50
bobyand here I am21:50
swien@boby do you have any non standard pam-settings?21:50
bobywhat is that?\21:50
James147Henson_D: have focus follows mouse :) try changing it to the default one and try it21:51
swien@boby is the tool ubuntu uses to manage you logins. If you don't know what it is you probably did not break it21:51
James147Henson_D: nop, same behaviour with click to focus21:53
bobyone more thing: when system is starting my kubuntu screen is in low resolution21:53
bobythose blue screen with kubuntu sign21:53
bobyimage is corrupted21:53
Henson_DJames147: yeah, I'm getting the same behaviour with all of the others.  Click to focus and Focus Follows Mouse seem worse in that you had to put the mouse pointer into the new column, instead of simply moving the mouse.21:53
James147Henson_D: Think you should submit a bug report :)21:54
Henson_DJames147: will do :-)  Thanks for your assistance.21:54
bobyit is shown in very low number of colors21:55
bobywhat now?21:57
swien@boby I've got no idea what could be wrong21:59
g0thhi22:01
robinking623anyone here who has the problem with Fn key to change the backlight under kde 4.4?22:02
bobyok conclusion: when booting I can't boot when it offers me login screen, then I need to do console login and from there kill ldm and startx. It is clean instalation of 64 bit kubuntu. And my system has ati video card22:02
g0thhow do I create a custom application launcher on the kde panel?22:02
bobyif this helps22:02
jschalli'm getting audio from amarok and kopete, but not from wow in wine or flash.22:04
g0thI just want to add another application to the panel, how do I do that?22:05
g0thIt is not in the "official" list22:05
robinking623g0th: miniprogram unlock22:05
g0thhmm?22:05
robinking623g0th: then add miniprogram22:05
Henson_Djschall: what sound output method is wine or flash using?  Amarok and Kopete are probably using ALSA, but if Wine and Flash are using OSS then the audio device will be blocked by ALSA.22:06
jschallwine is using alsa and flash would be using alsa.22:06
Henson_Djschall: or perhaps your KDE audio system is using PulseAudio, in which case the same thing will happen.22:06
jschallno pulse.22:07
Henson_Djschall: hmmm, I don't have any more ideas, unfortunately.22:07
g0throbinking623: there is no package named miniprogram?22:07
swien@boby sry. I've got no idea what is wrong.22:07
swienbye22:08
jschallamarok and kopete have been running a while so i'm thinking it might be something stopping new programs from getting sound?22:08
bobyok thx anyway and sorry for my english22:08
bobybye22:08
James147g0th: Right click kmenu > edit menu (or run kmenuedit)  and you can create a launcher for the menu... after that you cna drag it from kmenu to the panel22:08
howardhi22:09
Henson_Djschall: is it only wine and flash that is affected?  Are you able to start another program that outputs sound?22:09
g0thah so I first have to modify the menu before adding anything to the panel?22:09
James147g0th: its the easiest way i think22:09
jschallHenson_D: i can't think of another program22:09
James147g0th: althernitivly the widget "quick launcher" might be able to do it22:10
g0ththanks22:10
jschalldragon player works22:10
Henson_Dmplayer, or aplay, or audacity?22:10
g0thhmm I didnt find quick laucher?22:10
jschalldolphin works22:10
Henson_Djschall: mplayer, or aplay, or audacity?22:10
jschallHenson_D: i can get audio apparently22:11
James147g0th: umm, quicklauncher seems to need a menu entry as well22:11
jschallHenson_D: just not in flash22:11
jschallHenson_D: or wow22:11
James147g0th: right click panel > panel settings > add widget > Type: quick22:12
James147jschall: not sure about wine but you could try purging flash and installing it from adobes site22:13
Henson_Djschall: open up a terminal and type        lsof -n | grep "/dev/snd/pcm"      and see what shows up.22:14
jschalldolphin22:15
jschallclosed dolphin and nothing22:15
g0ththere is just quick access and quick launch22:15
g0thhmm and I don't find the menu anywhere22:15
Henson_Djschall: it reports that dolphin is using your sound device?22:15
g0thI mean I added my program to the menu but I dont find this menu anywhere22:15
jschallHenson_D: dolphin   24877    jschall   25u      CHR              116,7       0t0     4028 /dev/snd/pcmC0D0p22:16
jschallHenson_D: then i closed dolphin and it went away but wow still doesn't work22:16
James147g0th: to edit the menu run "kmenuedit"  or right click kmenu and click edit menu22:16
jschallHenson_D: but wow is accessing it if i start it22:16
Henson_Dwell if you've closed dolphin, maybe you have to kill the dolphin process, because it seems as  though process 24877 is still using your sound device.22:17
=== ubuntu is now known as meins_amd2
g0thJames147: I found this22:17
g0thJames147: but I didn't find it to choose from in the panel22:17
Henson_Djschall: well if you've closed dolphin, maybe you have to kill the dolphin process, because it seems as  though process 24877 is still using your sound device.22:17
jschallnpviewer also accesses it22:17
g0thI can just edit it but not actually choose the stuff I edited22:17
phrozenhello I have a problem I can make a ping via terminal eq. google.com, but when I am trying to open site at webbrowser then I can not - it is offline ... how can i solve it? I am connecting to internet via router22:18
James147g0th: drag it from kmenu to the panel22:18
g0thit is not in kmenu?22:18
jschallHenson_D: amarok also accesses it and works, but nothing else does.22:18
James147g0th: it should be if you added it using kmenuedit22:18
g0thhmm but a lot of stuff is not there22:18
jschallHenson_D: http://pastebin.com/4g6SH8hi22:18
g0ththat is in kmenuedit22:18
g0thI must be in the wrong menu somehow22:19
jschallHenson_D: amarok is working, nothing else is.22:19
g0thand everything is extremely slow22:19
g0thwhenever I update the system configuration it takes several minutes22:19
g0thon my core7 computer22:19
g0thand it already crashed several times22:19
Henson_Djschall: I don't know what to suggest.  Perhaps the volume level is down or mute is on.  It looks like wow is able to use your sound device, but why sound is not coming out, I am not sure.  Has sound worked in the past?22:19
g0thnot the best experience so far ^^22:19
James147g0th: what version are you running?22:20
jschallHenson_D: you know, i'm not quite sure. i think it did.22:20

Henson_Djschall: so you just upgraded to kubuntu and now you're experiencing these problems?22:21
g0ththe system is frozen at the moment22:21
g0thi cant do anything22:21
jschallHenson_D: yesterday i think i had it working in kubuntu22:21

cjaeanyone know why my bluetooth kb and mouse doesnt work in lucid22:27
g0thhmm22:28
James147g0th: think it might have gotten moved to teh partener repositories22:28
g0thcouldn't this cause problems with certain applications?22:28
g0thbut I also have the partner repo and I dont see it22:28
Guest60880is there a repo for kdevelop 3.5.x or is compiling the source the only possibility to get the stable kdevelop working in kubuntu 10.04 :<?22:30
James147g0th: yuo, its in the partener repos, jsut enabled them refreshed and its there22:30
James147Guest60880: I think kdevelop is in ppa:kubuntu-ppa/beta22:30
James147Guest60880: ^^ thats the 3.9.x version sorry :22:31
g0thok thanks22:32
James147Guest60880: 3.10.x even :)22:32
Guest60880:>22:32
jschallHenson_D: still doesn't work.22:33
Henson_DGuest60880: just add one of the older repositories, like jaunty, and install the 3.5.x version from there.  I've done it and it works.22:33
cjaeanyone else have blutooth logitech devices working22:33
Guest60880hm i think the packetnames are the same - is a downgrade possible?22:33
Henson_Djschall: try completely removing pulseaudio from your computer (unless you need to use it).  When I first installed kubuntu I had a similar problem.  KDE was using pulse, so all of the KDE apps worked, but nothing else would.  Once I got rid of pulse KDE started using alsa and things worked again.22:34
=== tek is now known as Teknical
jschallHenson_D: pulseaudio is not installed.22:34
Henson_DGuest60880: it should be.  If you add the other repository, refresh the packages, and take a look in aptitude, then you'll be able to select the older version.  Just de-install all of the 3.9.x packages first, then select the 3.5.x package and it will bring in all of the other 3.5.x dependencies.22:35
jschallHenson_D: pulseaudio:  Installed: (none)  Candidate: 1:0.9.22~0.9.21+stable-queue-32-g8478-0ubuntu1422:35
Teknicalis there any way to install the nvidia driver without making my splash screen go ugly?22:35
Henson_Djschall: sorry, I don't know what else to suggest.22:35
Teknicalshould be more specific, is there any way to avoid the ugly splash screen bug with nvidia drivers on 10.04 fresh install22:36
Henson_Djschall: what if you exit KDE then start X using a failsafe mode.  That way none of the extra KDE things will use your soundcard.  Then try starting WOW and see what happens.22:37
jschallalso my spash screen looks like this: http://challinger.net/photo.jpg22:37
vadi01https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kubuntu-default-settings/+bug/55129022:38
vadi01is it already in updates?22:38
Henson_Djschall: haha, so does mine :-(22:38
jschallHenson_D: the splash screen has never displayed properly for me.22:38
jschallHenson_D: it always screws up in a different way22:38
Henson_Djschall: ahh, it used to work properly for me.  For some reason the colour depth or map must be wrong.22:38
jschallHenson_D: every release of ubuntu/kubuntu has had a messed up splash screen for me and they've all been different22:39
Henson_Djschall: hmm, my splash screens have always worked until 10.422:39
vadi01so there seems to be a problem with the splash screen huh22:39
Teknicalthe screen going ugly is caused from the nvidia driver install, at least what i can tell from all the googling ive done22:40
Teknicali can confirm on this clean install my splash is still nice looking as on live cd, nvidia driver not installed yet22:40
James147Teknical: you mean the nvida logo screen?22:40
Teknicalno, the kubuntu splash22:40
vadi01so has it been fixed when you run the update?22:40
Teknicalthis is a reported bug, google kubuntu 10.04 ugly splash22:40
Teknicalfully updated last install then did nvidia drivers, then updates again .. still ugly splash22:41
Henson_DTeknical: if it's the boot screen, then it shouldn't be using the kernel's VGA driver.22:41
James147Teknical: does it happen for all spalsh screen or jsut the default one?22:41
Teknicaldefault kubuntu splash, the blue with white dots22:41
jschalli don't care about the splash screen, but i want my flash audio to work =/22:41
James147Teknical: try other spalsh screen see if they work22:41
vadi01darn it means i cant install 10.04 now untill this one is fixed22:41
Teknicalsome fixes include modifying the grub settings, but they still dont look 100% right22:41
vadi01i cant believe why the developers missed this major bug22:42
Teknicalbefore trying other splashes i was hoping to hear of some resolve before I put the nvidia driver in again22:43
Henson_Djschall: try starting X with a light-weight window manager, or the failsafe screen then starting WOW.  Maybe KDE is doing something that's causing the sound device not to work.22:43
jschallHenson_D: i don't know how to do that.22:43
vadi01Teknical: anyway when you updated maybe the update mirror did not receive the update yet22:44
Henson_Djschall: at the login screen, there should be a menu that allows you to select a different type of login.  One of the options should be "failsafe", which will give you only an xterm.  Just remember to switch it back to KDE when you're done, otherwise you'll get the failsafe login next time you try to log in.22:44
Teknicali tested my last install not more than an hour ago, to no avail with no updates22:45
vadi01try updating from from a server in the us22:45
Teknicalit would be logical to assume that an hour later the problem still exists22:45
jschallHenson_D: brb22:45
vadi01Teknical: well means its not reached your server repo yet22:45
jschallHenson_D: failsafe fails.22:46
jschallHenson_D: very safely.22:46
jschallHenson_D: it flashes white and goes right back to the login22:46
Teknicalwas on a us server, trying main server22:47

skierpagelogicode, vlc works for me.  I'm not sure what it uses for audio output by default, I don't think it uses System Settings >Multimedia23:37
unholyskornThis is incredible, having issues just installing a damn display driver...23:37
skierpagelogicode, If I start vlc from the command line (vlc /usr/share/sounds/k3b_success1.wav) it prints some errors about pulseaudio (which isn't set up by default), but plays fine.23:38
coreberserkerHello all23:40
vbgunzanybody know how to enable desktop effects using nvidia-current on 10.04? the driver is working fine but not when it comes to effects.23:40
coreberserkerCan someone tell me how to get my other partitions to mount with out asking for the password everytime. And I'm running Kubuntu 10.0423:41
skierpageWhat's the name of the 10.04 upgrade program for the purpose of filing bugs?  It's running "python /tmp/tmpipXc12/lucid" but that's not it ;-)23:42
coreberserkerCan anyone tell me how?23:43
vbgunzgonna try restarting23:44
skierpagecoreberserker, I'm no expert but the file /etc/fstab lists what partitions should get mounted.  You could as root edit that file and add an entry to it.23:44
James147coreberserker: just noticed that :S seems to only be on internal drives (well at least not usb flash drives)23:44
coreberserkerRight23:45
len_If you do an upgrade to 10.04 on a 9.04 system using grub legacy will it convert it to grub 2?  9.04 changed to grub 2 for new installs, but kept grub legacy for upgrades.23:45
James147coreberserker: if it is an internal drive you want to mount i would suggest what skierpage said and add it to /etc/fstab23:45
unholyskornAnyone know how to get ATi drivers to work?23:46
skierpagecoreberserker , what partition are you trying to add?  E.g. the program ntfs-config has some way of adding a Windows NTFS partition.  There might be other UIs.23:46
vbgunzmy desktop effects have been disabled and I cannot enable them. I have nvidia-current. am I missing something?23:47
coreberserkerskierpage , its an NTFS partiton, but it mounts just fine, It just asks for a password to mount it every time but didn't ask for a password in 9.1023:48
skierpageBTW, to answer my own question it looks like the 10.04 program is dist-upgrade and it writes out a lot of info in /var/log/dist-upgrade.23:48
James147coreberserker: I would add an entry to /etc/fstab to auto mount it (or to not automount ir but allow user to)23:48
vistakilleranyone else have problems with suspend?23:49
unholyskornAnyone know how to get ATi drivers to work?23:49
panix_how do i uninstall dolphin ?23:49
skierpagecoreberserker maybe I'll run into that when I complete 10.04.  The line that ntfs-config adds to /etc/fstab looks something like "/dev/sda1 /media/WindowsCdrive ntfs-3g defaults,locale=en_US.UTF-8 0 0"23:49
James147panix_: sudo aptitude remove dolphin   not sure what depends on it though23:50
panix_i hate dolphin23:50
panix_why cant i have konquere like the good old days23:50
unholyskornI hate this POS operating system that I can't even install video drivers on...23:50
skierpagecoreberserker , try running `sudo ntfs-config` first, and back up /etc/fstab23:50
panix_what ATI card do you have ?23:51
unholyskornX800 XT23:51
panix_they dont like proprietary drivers because it screws up theyr spyware23:51
unholyskornSo if you own an ati card you cant use kubuntu?23:52
panix_you cant install the driver from AMD ?23:52
unholyskornThat is what I did23:52
unholyskorninstalls fine, restart and it's not working23:52
unholyskornrun the ccc program, asks for a password and then just exits23:52
panix_i bet it works fine with deabian stable23:53
panix_debian stable23:53
vadi01Teknical: u there?23:53
unholyskornrun aticonfig and it says no adapters are installed23:53
skierpageunholyskorn, I use the default free ati drivers (ati_drv.so, radeon_drv.so) from Ubuntu 9.10 and they work fine.  To see what your system is using, search for '.drv' in /var/log/Xorg.0.log.  I assume you rebooted.23:53
panix_i bet it works like charm23:53
skierpagecheers all.23:53
vadi01Teknical: any news on your nvidiea?23:53
Teknicalnothing23:55
Teknicalbeen googling, still havnt installed the driver23:55
panix_unholyskorn, you need to run lmod23:55
unholyskorn?23:56
panix_lsmod ?23:56
panix_modprobe to see if the module is installed23:56
vbgunzmy desktop effects in 9.10 worked great. Now in 10.04 I can't even enable them. I downloaded nvidia-current. whats missing? will it help I get this message in the glx dialog of nvidia-settings "Fail to query the GLX server vendor."23:56
panix_they are trying to piss of the gamers i know the linux comunty23:57
markitI've a kubuntu 10.04 alpha3 that recognizes automatically my 1920x1080 screen, while last kubuntu does not :( xrandr does not show that resolution either. 9.10 does either. Is it a known issue? Did they broke somehting?23:57
unholyskornThis kubuntu is a pos23:57
panix_you cant have fun with games anything other then bashing at promp is forbiden23:57
panix_i think the proprietary driver dont like the aimbots work so good23:58
panix_whats a pos ?23:58
unholyskornOk, skierpage i looked in xorg.0.log and it has a whole bunch of crap about ati23:58
