Guest415Let me see if I  understand. So mutiverse repository is now call "partner" in Lucid?   Adept lists a multiverse repo (it's checked) , then there's another tab "Other software" and on that tab theres a couple of "partner" listings.   Now this is confusing00:00
apparleGuest415: no multiverse is multiverse00:01
dolomiteyurimxpxman: 64 or 3200:01
apparleGuest415: but the sun java packages have moved from multiverse to partner00:01
yurimxpxmandolomite: 3200:01
apparleGuest415: and if you are on lucid, you can't have adept00:02
dolomiteyurimxpxman: and I'm assuming you installed the libdvdread3 package and ran the install-css script?00:02
yurimxpxmandolomite: yeah, I did00:02
dolomiteyurimxpxman: can you recall when you last updated libdvdcss2?00:03
yurimxpxmandolomite: I can play the movie if I run "vlc dvdsimple:///dev/dvd" but no menus.. and I can't rip it with another program00:03
Guest415apparle i'll add the partners.    I can' have adept :-)  cause i've got it.  I installed it.  via apt-get.  SOmething wrong with that?00:03
Guest415on lucid btw 64 bit00:04
apparleGuest415: adding the partner repos would do your job00:04
apparleFor other guys:.... is adept still in development00:05
Guest415I don't understand the interface on k-package manager.  Adept was more synaptic -ilke.   Synaptic is more intuitive. IMO00:05
yurimxpxmandolomite: version is 1.2.9-2medibuntu400:05
apparleGuest415: I agree that adept was better looking than kpackagekit... but it is discontinued, so it is recommended that you use kpackagekit. But I personally recommend the command line apt-get00:07
yurimxpxmanGuest415: synaptic intuitive? For whom? It relies on package names.. not good for a new user00:07
apparleyurimxpxman: +100:08

skierpageMy PC resumed from standby badly and now on-board 3COM 3C940 LAN doesn't work. even after BIOS reset  The chip's diagnostics and BIOS are all for DOS.  Do I run them from WINE, DOSBox, or DOSemu ?00:27
bloodsmithdjustice: thank you kindly, good sir00:27
djusticebloodsmith: click 'raw' or 'download' up top. then run 'cat filename > dpkg --set-selections'00:27

dolomiteno, not so far.00:29
ewwwphoriadoes anyone know if IBM Lotus Sympthony is Gnome or KDE based?00:29
djusticebloodsmith: oh yea, my dpkg selections are about 4gb. so dont do that unless you want a 'fully pimpd' system. i run 4 tattoo shops (gfx/office/games) on that setup.00:29
yurimxpxmandolomite: that wouldn't explain why dvd shrink doesn't work, either, though00:29
bloodsmithapparle: got it, ty00:29
dolomiteif you can revert to older version of libdvdcss2, please do that and report back. this problem appears to be in the latest version00:30

bloodsmithdjustice: what kind of programs and whatnot do you have on that list?00:33

ewwwphoriawhat about the OpenOffice that comes with Kubuntu, is it KDE based?00:35
bloodsmithdjustice: hah, lol, might just have to get that then. at the very least ill browse it and get some ideas on what to download, im at a friends house using his internet, so i really dont want to kill his bandwidth, you understand...00:36
djusticeewwwphoria: ooffice isnt kde... it's kde-themed tho. so it fits in nicely.00:37
lvlechhi is this kubuntu support channel?00:37
djusticebloodsmith: koolkool. you can edit that list. before setting selections. i keep lists handy for diff setups/reasons. :)00:37

lvlechdoes anyone know how to allow files to saved on the desktop00:38
djusticelvlech: the ~/Desktop folder. save them there.00:39
lvlechbut I don't see it on my desktop00:39
lvlechI have to go into the desktop folder in /home00:39
djusticelvlech: or you mean a folderview style desktop activity? right click the desktop->settings->change 'desktop' to 'folderview'00:39
djusticelvlech: or 'add widgets'->folderview00:39
djusticethen point the folderview at the desktop folder.. iirc that's default..00:40
bloodsmithdjustice: yeah, editing would be a good idea. what is inkscape? im assuming its some sort of tattoo editing program?00:40
lvlechdesktop activity settings?00:41
djusticebloodsmith: nah, its a vector app. like adobe illustrator on drugs. good drugs. all(most) of kde's 'scalable'ness was made with it.00:41
djusticelvlech: that's it.00:41
djusticelvlech: under 'activity'. change type to 'folderview'00:41
bloodsmithdjustice: aaaaahhh, i see... useless to one such as i, however... i do believe...00:41
lvlechty! it works00:42
djusticebloodsmith: its really simple actually... no math involved.. just point and click stuff.. handy app :) til kde's karbon gets stable enough.00:42

zushow can i remove gnome player? somehow it got installed? when firefox was asking to install missing plug ins,...03:01
Draciratesudo apt-get uninstall gnome-player03:03
Dracirate?03:03
zuswould that also remove all the other stuff as well not just the player?03:04
Draciratewhat else you want to remove?03:05
zusi didnt want to install it, it appeared after installing missing plug-ins for firefox, but i never had gnome player before now.03:06
Draciratesudo apt-get uninstall gnome-player only remove the gnome player03:06
sidHartDracirate: no such thing as uninstall..shud be apt-get purge <pkg>03:09
zussidHart,  i did that and it came back as no such package...03:11
Dracirateso the gnome-player03:11
sidHartzus: what package did u enter?03:11
darkdelusionsDoes the kubuntu install not install the nvidia drivers by default?03:12
zusahh it says GNOME MPlayer,....i  think dragon is based of Mplayer so is this GNOME MPlayer ok to remove?03:12
sidHartzus: the package name is mplayer03:13
sidHartzus: shud be sudo apt-get purge mplayer03:14
sidHartzus: dragon doesn't need any gnome stuff03:14
zussidHart, so Mplayer and GNOME MPlayer would be two different packages03:14
sidHartzus: the gnome menu names has nothing to do with the package name that apt-get recognize..03:16
harolddongI thought dragon was based on xine03:17
zuskaffieine is from what i was told before03:17
zusagain no such package03:18
zusthis is kinda wired.03:18
genii"kinda" ?03:19
zusits there in the menu but  it's not found in the "sudo apt-get purge <pkg>"03:20
sidHartzus: replace <pkg> with mplayer03:21
zussidHart,  yep03:21
sidHartzus: ??03:22
zusi did03:22
sidHartand?03:22
zussame out come03:22
zusit's still in the menu in multimedia03:23
darkdelusionsbrb03:23
sidHartzus: edit the kde menu and find out which is the command line03:23
zussidHart,  one sec .03:23
zussid it says gnome-mplayer %u03:24
zusforgot to hit tab03:25
sidHartzus: then replace <pkg> with gnome-mplayer03:25
zussidHart,  that did the trick... what  exactly did i do? ( still learning the command line myself)03:27
sidHartzus: sometimes the menu names does not correspond exactly the package name03:29
sidHartapt-get requires the exact name..03:31
yotuxhello I have a network question03:33
yotuxWhat should the transfer speed be on a 1Gb connection03:33
sidHartzus: you can learn more about apt-get by reading - try this ' man apt-get'.  a good companion is dpkg.  so try man dpkg too03:34
yotuxcurrently I am using SSH to transfer files and I only get 1.1mbs/s03:34
sidHartzus: to find out what packages are installed try this03:34
Dragnsliceryotux- there are a lot of factors that determine transfer speed between two computers03:35
sidHartzus: dpkg -l | grep 'what-u-r-looking'03:35
DarthFrogsidHart: I find this to be very useful for finding out what packages are installed: alias lspkg="dpkg --list | grep ^ii.* | cut -d ' ' -f 3 | sort | less"03:35
DarthFrogThen grep the output03:35
zussidHart,  thanks :)03:36
sidHartzus: np..glad to be of help03:36
yotuxDragnslicer:  any idea where to start?03:36
sidHartDarthFrog: i prefer mine first as it wud tell me desc and version03:38
Dragnsliceryotux- unless the two computers are connected through a crossover cable or both connected to a gigabit switch, you won't get 1 Gbps transfers anyway03:39
yotuxI have my Dlink NAS box my Gigswitch and my Desktop03:39
yotuxI use wifi to link to the web router03:40
yotuxI am thinking wifi is the issue?  slowing down the 1GB interface03:40

olskolircits the .mozilla that holds all the settings dolomite04:08
olskolircI purged first04:08
olskolircthen rm -rf .mozilla04:08

olskolircgoing to find 3.004:10
olskolircmy repository doesn't have it it has 3.0 dummy upgrade which takes me to 3.6.3 same as the 2.0 dummy upgrade i just might find a an older bz2 then soft link my own plugins04:11
olskolircI sound like I know what im talking about huh? haha we'll see brb04:12
dolomiteolskolirc: oh yeah, of course the lucid repos wouldn't have the 3.0. darn. if you're comfortable compiling; bz2 should be successful.04:12

dolomitebeltorak: what exactly?04:23
olskolircwhat do you use dolomite konq?04:23
beltorakdolomite: anything - like to be able to select the system settings icon and right click and run as root.... or something similarly easy04:23
olskolircmy konq is broke i can't get an address bar or internet buttons like home, back forward i don't know where they all went04:23
dolomitekonq on this machine cuz it's slow. chromium on my main machine.04:23
olskolircsigh lotsa work here guys04:23
dolomitebeltorak: there are exceptions but generally you can type 'kdesudo <program name>' from terminal04:24
dolomitebeltorak: in this case kdesudo systemsettings04:24
beltorakright, but i like the auto-complete i get, which goes away when using kdesu as the first command...04:25
beltorakif i start typing "system", i get a suggestion for "systemsettings", but if I do "kdesu system" there's no such intelligence04:25
beltorakto the UI04:25
dolomite beltorak: I don't know about your auto-complete04:26
dolomitebut that's how you launch from CLI04:27

beltorakunderstood, but the point is that i typically don't run these things often..... anyway, guess i'll cahlk it up to a feature request. Where would I file that? KDE's bug database?04:30

zusin the setting under file associations i changed mpeg3 to amorok, nothing changed. im trying to make mp3 open amarok instead of VLC.  VLC is opening im guessing since it's been installed after amarok was.04:41
dolomitevlc and amarok each have their own file associations right?04:43
dolomite(they each have settings for it?)04:43
zusim not sure? but before i installed VLC every mp3 i opened, opened with amarok04:45
zusi only got VLC to play the files dragon player and amarok wouldnt open and after installing it everything open in VLC04:46
zusi realized this when files onced opened with amarok are now opening in VLC04:47

dolomiteilya-x: hello again. these new entries are bootable right?04:59
ilya-xI've only booted into 2.6.32-22-generic, which seems like what everything should've been updated to... so not sure why it lists the older version as well05:01
gohmifunezus: are you typing amarok in this window. http://imagebin.ca/view/2AyCjDBA.html ?05:01
dolomiteilya-x: I believe you can remove them in grub but I'd recommend keeping them in case you run into an issue that's resolved by booting into the old kernel05:01
dolomiteilya-x: doesn't hurt!05:01

gohmifunezus: It does group them together sometimes05:14
zusso what is mpeg3?05:14
gohmifunezus: mpeg3 is audio, mpeg is video05:14
zusgohmifune,  thats what i thought,  should i go back to nothing under mpeg3 as it originally was?05:15

zuswhat makes kubuntu so completely different? before trying it i asked about it and was told its ubuntu with the kde.07:07
zusbut there are somethings kubuntu dont have from ubuntu and the other way around.07:08
zusyea a total new guy thing to ask, but to me its defiantly two different worlds, not asking wich is better dont get me wrong07:10
moetuneszus: 'cause kde has most of it's own apps it is pretty different to ubuntu but works the same if that makes sense07:11
zusmoetunes,  it does, but only cuz i've been using kubuntu for a little less than 2months.07:11
zusi did like ubuntu alot, if i change back i wish i can take some things from kubuntu and mash em up.07:15
zusnumber one reason i changed was dolphin07:15
moetuneszus: only prob with mixing gtk and kde is load times for diff apps  - works ok07:18
zusmoetunes, i probably didnt get to use nautilus as much use as i have dolphin07:22
moetuneszus: I never thought nautilus was the best for me...07:23
zusthe video mentioned doplhin having the same features and then some over nautilus so i was sold.07:24

kwtmHi!  Anyone willing to guide a diehard KDE3 fan who's trying to get used to KDE4?08:53
Tm_Tkwtm: ask, and the answers will be given when available (:)08:53
kwtmOki!  Anyone have tips on how to run programs from the keyboard?  I set it so that the K-button is activated with Ctrl-Esc, and it lets me search programs.08:54
Tm_Tkwtm: you can do that, but you also can press alt+f208:55
kwtmUnfortunately, when I type in "Kate", it gives the choice of either "Kate" or "run Kate" and says: "I have no idea which choice you want, so unless you move your hand from the keyboard to the mouse to click on one of these, I'm just going to sit here and stew."08:55
Tm_Tkwtm: tab and then use arrows to choose08:56
kwtmTm_T: Ah, I see that the Alt-F2 selector is a bit more intelligent and defaults to the first choice without needing any mouse clicks,  Thx.08:56
Tm_Tkwtm: in kmenu, just arrows up and down change your selection08:56
kwtmIs there a way to set an application to be launched by shortcut?  Eg. in KDE3, I used to have an "app" called "insert timestamp into Klipper" and I had a shortcut key, but here I don't know how to run that script with a single keypress.08:57
Tm_TI know it's possible, but I don't know exactly how, sorry08:58
kwtmOkay.  How do I minimize or maximize windows on the keyboard?  I can't seem to get the usual Alt-Space menu from which to choose "minimize" or "Advanced > Keep Window Above Others" etc.08:59
Tm_Tkwtm: alt+f3 gives the menu, but I think there's direct shortcuts for those too09:00
kwtmTm_T: Ah, didn't know about Alt-F3.  Thanks!09:00
kwtmWhat is Nepomuk for, in everyday practical terms?  Is it just so you can use Strigi to look for files quickly?09:01
Tm_Tkwtm: nepomuk is the whole system to hold and handle metadata of any information, strigi is just file index/search part of it (:09:02
Tm_Tor this is how I see it anyway09:02
kwtmTm_T: What I mean is: for now, is Strigi the only practical use for Nepomuk, or should I be doing anything differently to take advantage of Nepomuk?  For example, can I write a script to say "nepomuk --find-photos Photos_of_my_wife"?09:03
Tm_Tkwtm: ye something like that can be done09:03
Tm_Tkwtm: or search all photos of something with rating of 4 stars09:04
kwtmWhat about Akonadi?  Is that part of Nepomuk?09:05
Tm_Tkwtm: Akonadi is keeping your PIM information, which can then be used with nepomuk (don't know how well this works with current stable releases)09:10
kwtmTm_T: I see.  Okay.  What about multi-key shortcuts?  Like Win-A,B means one thing, Win-A,C means another?   Not sure how to set this.09:11
Tm_Tkwtm: me neither09:11
kwtmis Kmail always active even when I don't see any such icon on the screen (neither system tray nor taskbar)?09:24
Tm_Tshouldn't09:24
kwtmI keep getting these pop-ups saying "can't access ~/var folder in Kmail" or something.09:25
Tm_Twell, you can set it to have systray always when it's on, dunno how it acts when it's not configured such way09:25

eagles0513875oh wait colomar i know what the problem is10:29
eagles0513875cd's have slow read write access so its trying to read from the cd as well as render scrumworks10:29
eagles0513875to eliminate that issue you would need to install lucid onto ur machine10:30
eagles0513875*your10:30
colomareagles0513875: That was a misunderstanding. It does work with ubuntu lucid (gnome) from a live cd (and on my colleague's machine with installed lucid), but it does not work with my installed kubuntu lucid10:31
colomarWith a opensuse 11.2 live cd it didn't work either. So it must either be a problem with KDE or Ubuntu (gnome) does something that fixes it. I'm not sure10:32
colomarAnd to answer your other question: Scrumworks is an application for managing the Scrum software development process. It doesn't do anything fancy. It's basically just some tree components it tries to render10:34
eagles0513875colomar: that i find totally strange10:34
eagles0513875colomar: your machine up to date10:34
colomareagles0513875: Yes.10:36
colomarIt seems to actually be a bug in scrumworks. I just found this: http://community.danube.com/danube/topics/scrumworks_client_not_working_with_kde_kubuntu_9_1010:37
colomarBut the strange thing is that it doesn' affect Ubuntu10:37
colomarBut it can't be kwin because I had the same problem when starting it on the same machine from LXDE10:38

ahoxHi, what is the right way(tm) to mount a network drive? So far I put it in the fstab, and I had an initscript mountall. This does not work anymore...11:41
ahoxit complains at bootup that it can not mount the filesystem.11:43
moetunesahox: you need to look at nfs11:46
moetunes!nfs11:46
ubottunfs is the network file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNFSHowTo for information on installing and configuring NFS.11:46
ahoxthat's what I did using the static mount method. Problem is that at boottime the network is not ready yet and hence bails out with an error11:53

chizaramhi12:48
chizaramI'm using the inbuilt microphone of the laptop12:48
chizaramI did a search on Google and saw some things on PulseAudio, ALSA, etc12:49
chizaramBut I'm not sure how that helps12:49
chizaramWhen I go to System/Preferences/Sound12:50
chizaramThe five tabs available are: Sound Effects, Hardware, Input, Output, Applications12:50
chizaramIt doesn't give me the option to set PulseAudio as was mentioned in some of the searches12:51
chizaramDo you know what could be the issue?12:51
confuzzed1)  open the sound mixer and make sure that your microphone is not muted and that levels are up12:52
chizaramok12:52
confuzzed2) test microphone using another software program (not skype) - if this works, then problem is just skype related12:52

BuckyminiBill: so you've got my same issue?14:43
miniBillBucky: not as you, but as noaXess14:43
speedvinminiBill: I readed about it but some peapole say's that it's an old method and does not include  deps in deb package14:43
miniBillBucky: my webcomic reader works like a charm14:43
markcm_tadeu, yeah, I've had that one too... but my main error is the can't access a lockfile... because there are 2 mysql processes running14:43
BuckyminiBill: ah, ok14:43
noaXesscomplicated.. talking to more then one ;)14:43
miniBillspeedvin: you can specify deps during build if you want. imho checkinstall is good for small/fast/temporary solutions14:44

dolomitefloown: sounds fun! have you checked your default devices in system settings18:34
SaintlySacrficeJames147, you here?18:34
James147SaintlySacrfice: I am18:34
SaintlySacrficeAlright I figured this out18:34
dolomiteJames147 is testing in the name of science!18:35
SaintlySacrficeWhat I need is this....18:35
SaintlySacrficehttp://osdir.com/ml/debian-bugs-dist/2010-01/msg07864.html18:35
vuxithere are birthday dates stored in this file. And there is a function in the calender that adds a birthday calender (that should itself look the dates up in the addressbook). And the last one doesn´t work18:35
floowndolomite: yes I have, the configuration (in multimedia) is the same for all entries18:35
SaintlySacrficeBut I need you to tell me how to run the commands listed there.18:35
SaintlySacrficeCan you do tht?18:35
dolomitevuxi: so if you manually look at the contacts, are the birthdays there? or did they not even get imported?18:36
vuxiyes all the dates are there18:36
James147SaintlySacrfice: ok18:36
SaintlySacrficeTy!18:36
dolomitefloown: what is the sound setup in amarok?18:37
dolomitevuxi: I'm not familiar with this calendar; is it a component of kontact?18:37
* James147 is reading the above link18:37
James147SaintlySacrfice: ok, first open up a terminal (konsole will do)18:37
vuxiIts the calendar component of Kontact ( I`m using a german system. Dont know how its called in the english version)18:38
floowndolomite: cool, it works now, I have reinstall pulseaudio then a new option appear in my multimedia configuration18:38
vuxiand it worked perfectly the week ago (before updating to 10.04)18:38
floownhoura18:38
SaintlySacrficeJames147 open18:39
dolomitefloown: good to hear it; sound problems are very difficult to fix18:39
James147SaintlySacrfice: then  type into it this command to stop networkmanager "sudo service network-manager stop"  (all commands without quotes :)18:39
=== root is now known as Guest97608
SaintlySacrficeJames147 alright network manager disabled18:41
James147SaintlySacrfice: if that works then type this next one (be careful with this one as it will premintly delete a file) "sudo rm /var/lib/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.state"  (Note: you can use <TAB> to auto complete paths and commands)18:41
dolomitevuxi: you upgraded to 10.04? I might recommend saving that vcf file and removing/purging kontact and reinstalling18:42
James147SaintlySacrfice: and finaly type this one to restart network amanger "sudo service network-manager restart"  (Note: bash keeps a history which you can access with the up arrow key, ussful in this case as you can edit the first command to save on typing :)  )18:43
vinceSaintlySacrfice: Yes I am18:44
vinceAny luck?18:44
James147SaintlySacrfice: I have had knetworkmanager crash before when trying to stop network-manager, if it has just run it again after you have finished the commands above (alt+f2 > type: knetworkmanager<ENTER>)18:44
vuxidolomite: I did not "update" the system. I reinstalled everything because of other problems. I only kept the vcf and the kmail dir with my mails18:45
zusthanks for the  kde 4.4.3 help18:45
Manyfoldi found it18:46
* James147 wonders why he dosent ahve 4.4.3 yet and goes to find out 18:46
jimmy51_i've just booted to the boot menu on the 64 bit livecd.  can i just boot to an terminal session without loading xserver?18:46
SaintlySacrficeVince it worked! Sweet thanks James147 for the help18:47
dolomitevuxi: OK. from what I'm looking at online, there aren't any problems reported regarding the calendar and vcf. did you reinstall kontact as part of all of your reinstallations?18:47
vinceSaintlySacrfice: what did u do?18:47

Reign1hi, how to fix broken dependencies in kubuntu?18:51
dolomiteManyfold: doesn't look good. did you upgrade to 10.04?18:51
James147Reign1: you can try "sudo aptitude install -f"18:51
vinceSaintly: Thanks for the link, that's exactly what happened to me18:51
Manyfolddolomite: yeah it happened after the upgrade18:51
James147Manyfold: can you try running "sudo aptitude install -f" and see if it fixes anything?18:52
dolomiteManyfold: oh yeah and you cant back your stuff up and do a fresh install right? James147 how's that test going?18:52
zusi cant keep amarok from moving about, when i spread the middle box the panels on the side only expand one way even with the lock panel checked/unchecked18:52
James147dolomite: restarting the vm now18:53
bawwwabout the h.264 licensing by canonical, is it only restricted to oems like preinstalled dell or is it for every user that uses k/ubuntu?18:53
bawwwi think it would be too expensive for every user?18:53
SuN__help me !18:53
dolomiteManyfold: James147 is running a test that could ensure that you can do a fresh install of 10.04 w/o losing your home directory18:53
SuN__I installed Kubuntu 10.04 but the hard thing to break the system I can not even log in the terminal gives me no how can a live CD to Recover a system without format ...?18:54

ManyfoldJames147: it installs over 200 packets new18:54
James147Manyfold: :S looked like your system hadent finished doing stuff, not sure if that command will actually fix anyhting but it might :)18:55
vuxidolomite: ok bye18:55
sabaalUpgrading initramfs-tools fails because my boot partition is full. If I just unmount it and remove the fstab entry, will the installer point grub to its new location on the root partition?18:55
SuN__?18:56
pucko-sabaal, you should probably copy the contents over before you unmount it.18:58
progre55hey slackers )18:58
James147dolomite: Looks like eveerything in /home remains after a reinstall if you dont choose to format /18:59
pucko-SuN_, I don't understand a thing you just said18:59
dolomiteJames147: in your opinion, will not formatting / even fix the install if it's broken?19:00
sabaalpucko-, I just want to make sure the bootloader will know which partition to look on.19:00
Saintlyvince: anytime bro19:01
vinceSaintly: :)19:01
Saintly;)19:02
James147sabaal: if not you can easaly reinstall grub from a livecd :)19:02
sabaalAh, I hadn't thought of that.19:02
sabaalWell, off to give it a try. Thanks.19:02
pucko-sabaal, run grub-install afterwards just to be sure. I don't see why it wouldn't work.19:02
dolomiteManyfold: you should consider trying a fresh install from a CD/DVD. It appears that if you don't choose to format / directory, you won't loose your /home either.19:05
Manyfolddolomite: but will /usr be erased completely?19:06
dolomiteManyfold: /usr is part of / so I'd think not. James147 please confirm19:06
James147Manyfold: dolomite: According to the install all system directorys will be erased (including /var /etc /usr   some other ones) but if you want to make sure delete it before installing :)19:07
dolomiteJames147: Manyfold doesn't want /usr erased, I think.19:08
Manyfoldwould rather like to run some tests for maxima and octave and verify the work19:08
Manyfoldthey work19:08
dolomite!maxima19:09
Manyfoldcause thats what i do with this computer watching tv ,reading and numerical simulations19:09
James147Manyfold: But I suggest making a backup of your data if you can (things can always go wrong) and make sure that you DONT check the format button :) and that you select the manual partition option19:09
Manyfoldso you still say fresh instal IS THE OPTION?19:09
dolomitesorry Manyfold I wish there was an easier option but the crashes you're getting aren't pretty.19:09
Manyfoldk19:10
Machtinyohoho guys, why can't i use shift+arrows/delete in the console?19:10
Manyfoldwill do so this night19:10
James147Manyfold: possibally not the "only" option, just the eisiest19:10
Manyfoldthank you for your help and time19:10
dolomitegood luck19:10
dolomiteMachtin: I'm assuming you get letter output for shift+arrow keys?19:11
Machtinpardon, i think i meant ctrl+arrow, dolomite19:12
Machtintab-switching via alt+arrow works, but deleting complete words at once doesn't.. that's the annoying thing19:13
James147Manyfold: Ctrl+arrows works here in konsole (4.4.2) delete and backspace dont :S19:13
dolomiteMachtin: I'm the opposite of James14719:13
James147dolomite: lol19:13

zusfirefox is asking to install missing plug ins. last time i did it i got  GNOME-MPlayer...well this time i have a few choices... there is gnine launcher there is VLC multimedia plugin - totem mozzila plg in and gecko media wich was the gnome-mplayer  which one do i chose? -19:26
dolomiteVLC is very nice19:26
dolomitethe plugin takes care of a lot of things at once19:26
bawwwzus go with gnome-mplayer19:26
dolomitebawww: awww19:27
Machtindolomite: guess it is, since i can see it launch.. the load-icon of the program appears, but it doesn't continue loading..19:27
bawwwzus: gnome-mplayer is compatible with quicktime trailers19:27
zusthat wont open VLC everytime i get a chat in facebook like  kaffeine did will it?19:27
dolomiteMachtin: run it from konsole and see if there's an error holding it back19:27
dolomitezus: no it's integrated19:27
bawwwdolomite: vlc support in firefox wasn't that great when i tried it19:27
dolomitehaha, quicktie19:27
Machtindolomite: that's the problem.. it works when i launch it in the console19:27
Machtini thought it might be the wrong terminal or so..19:28

appleseedI've downloaded all the packages into a directory for installation with dpkg. I'm not a sudoer, so I have to install the program in my own homedirectory, but dpkg still wants superuser privilege even though I use the options that specify my homedir as the installation folder. How can I get dpkg to work without needing sudo rights?20:53
llutzappleseed: you cannot, installing software using the package-management always needs root-privs20:54
pucko-appleseed, you can extract the packages manually20:54
appleseedthey are .deb , ok I'll google to see how it's done, thx pucko and llutz20:55
pucko-appleseed, will obviously not be registered in the pkg db20:55
geniiappleseed: ar -x filename.deb               then untar the data,tar,gz20:55
appleseedI'll give that a go, thx genii20:56
pucko-i suppose it's possible to set up a separate dpkg db in a chroot eenvironment20:56
geniinp20:56
appleseedworks nicely genii, now I can get to the /usr/lib libraries directly after extraction, which is all I want20:59

geniidaweed: k3b for instance does not know how to take a FLV file and make it into a format that a regular DVD player can use. The program devede can do this21:21
djusticedaweed: nah devede is pretty complex for such a simple task.. check out kxtodvd instead.21:21
djusticeor even wine convertxtodvd is easier/less gnomish than devede (pygtk, ick!)21:22
jussijustus: it may. most of us stay away from it because it always seems to have some strange bugs. resizing is not very hard, the installer can automatically do it for you. just defraga about 3 or 4 times before you do it.21:22

roberto_hi - looking for help with internationalization22:26
roberto_there is an awful lot of people attached here for this to be this quiet -- anyone home? :)22:28
Mamarokroberto_: maybe you should be a bit more precise, ask your question first?22:29
roberto_oo sure :) I have my system set up for spanish, because I'm most comfortable with it. but I chat a lot in portuguese and the nasal vowels don't seem to be a part of the spanish keyboard layout. I thought to use iBus, but Portuguese (nor spanish for that matter) are lsited there. How can I type a nasal vowel?22:30
Mamarokroberto_: you could add a second keyboard to your system, in the system settings -> Region & Language -> Keyboard22:31
Mamarokthen add the keyboard switcher in the same settings to make it show in the system tray, then you can just click on the flag and change it22:32
MamarokThat's what I do when I need either a Swiss German or Swiss French keyboard22:33
wllkmbllI can't hear sound when I watch youtube videos, does anyone know how to fix this?22:34
roberto_so it's not iBus at all?22:34
roberto_thank you22:34
Mamarokroberto_: well, I never used a direct iBus command, I just use different keyboard layours22:35
Mamaroklayouts*22:35
roberto_wow I gotta say, looking at these portuguese keyboard layouts I'm confused ..  Iused to just type alt+ñ to get the tilde and then type the vowel .. I never needed anything else. But the letters there are all sorts of letters in these keyboards I've never seen22:38
cranvilwllkmbll: i usually have to open kmix and push the pcm-volume up after every install to hear sound in flash videos22:38
Mamarokroberto_: hm, I have a keyboard with the Swiss layout, where the German and French special characters are already printed on, you could try the extended options22:39
Mamarokin the same system settings window, the Sdvanced tab22:41
Mamarokadvanced*22:41
wllkmbllcranvil: Everytime I try to open it the icon flashes by my cursor then nothing happens22:41
kwtmMamarok: You seem familiar with KDE4.  Do you know how to get multi-key shortcuts?  (e.g. "Alt-A,B" does one thing, "Alt-A,C" does another)22:42
wllkmbllcranvil:Nvm, I figured it out. Thanks for your help22:42
Mamarokkwtm: check the keyboard settings in the system settings, you can adapt the global shortcuts and in the individual apps you can change the local ones22:46
kwtmMamarok: When I check the keyboard settings, I can't find the button for "multi-key".22:47
Mamarokkwtm: but multi key will not really work, you need to combine different function keys, or hange the levels of your keyboard layout22:47
Mamarokchange*22:47
Mamarokkwtm: because there is none22:47
Mamarokkwtm: have a look at the advanced keyboard layout options22:47
kwtmMamarok: No multi-key!!?  Oh, mannn.... Okay, what about assigning a kmenu entry to a shortcut key?  That option seems to have disappeared, too.22:48
Mamarokkwtm: well, if by multi-key you mean multiple letter keys at once then no, and it doesn't sound like a good idea anyway IMHO22:49
kerncoAre we expecting there will be packages for Qt 4.7 beta and Qt Creator 2.0 beta?22:49
Mamarokbut you can combine pretty much all function keys with the other keys22:49
Mamarokkernco: not in the release cycle, those might show up in the backports PPA or beta PPAs, check the http://kubuntu.org website22:50
kwtmMamarok: I mean pressing keys in sequence, e.g. "Alt-A, release, then press B" will (for example, in my old KDE3) trigger my script to insert a timestamp into Klipper.22:50
Mamarokkwtm: hm, I never used that so I don't really know, sorry22:51
Mamarokbut if it was there before it is likely that it still exists, did you check the various system setting options for shortcuts?22:51
kwtmMamarok: In KDE3, I could go to a kmenu entry (say, for Firefox) and assign shortcut key, like "Win-F" (I know, no multikey, but I'll be happy with single key).  Is that available in KDE4?22:54
Mamarokkwtm: did you try?22:55
Mamarokkwtm: obviously not, else you would know you can :)22:55
Mamarokyou can set shortcuts for pretty much everything in KDE422:56
kwtmMamarok: Yes, I tried.  It doesn't seem to work.  (Apparently it only takes effect while the desktop is showing and no other program has focus?)22:56
Mamarokhm, file a bug then?22:56
kwtmMamarok: Let me try again just to make sure.22:56
dolomiteyo yo yo22:57
kerncokwtm: Settings > Configure Shortcuts isn't what you're looking for?22:57
kwtmMamarok: Well, I don't know if I should file a bug.  I've seen other people file bugs and they get dumped to a side.  "wont fix" or "not important" or "it's not supposed to work that way" or "why do you want to do it that way, anyway?" etc.22:57
kwtmkernco: Will try that way.  I was using "menu editor" > "shortcut key"22:57
Mamarokkwtm: did you try?22:58
kwtmkernco: I remember now: I tried under "global shortcuts" and it made me select whether it was "kalarm" or "kmix" etc.  I looked at "khotkeys" but wasn't sure how to use that or whether it was what I wanted.22:59
kwtmMamarok: Yes, I tried it again, and confirmed that it did not work.23:00
kwtmkernco: Is there a setting for "hotkey to activate my own script"?23:00
Mamarokkwtm: I meant, did you try filing a bug? If your rationale for a feature addition makes sense, I very much doubt it is set aside23:00
kwtmMamarok: I've tried filing a bug before, and got shoved to a side, so I'm not going to try again unless I can't move forward otherwise.  I've already spent hours googling for the solution, and I need something that works, not something that will work if I convince the right people.23:01
kerncokwtm: So you want to use a keyboard shortcut to execute an arbitrary command no matter what the program has focus?23:02
kwtmMamarok: I actually just want to get my work done in the minimum time, and filing a bug involves spending enough time poring through the web and forums and IRC to make sure it's not already filed, and then checking the bug list to make sure it's not a duplicate, etc.23:02
kwtmkernco: Correct.  I am happy to limit the arbitrary to a terminal, non-gui command.23:03
kerncokwtm: You can probably accomplish that by going lower-level than KDE.  Maybe you can put something in xorg.conf that does it.23:05
kwtmkernco: Oh dear.  Okay.  I was hoping KDE4 would be able to do something like that.23:05
kwtmIn general it seems that KDE3 is more functional (global shortcuts, multi-key) even if KDE4 has flashier graphics.23:06
kerncoI'm not sure about that, since there's stuff you can do in KDE4 that you couldn't in KDE3.  But there's definitely some features from KDE3 that are still missing, yes.23:07
kwtmThere are some global shortcuts that work, like Alt-F2 to run a command.  How would I change that shortcut?  I don't even know what program it is that pops up when I press Alt-F2.23:09
kerncoIt's called krunner23:09
kerncoIt should be in global shortcuts I think23:09
kwtmAh, krunner.  Okay, having that name somewhere in the settings/help file would have helped.  Will check global shortcuts again, now that I know what I'm looking for...23:10
kwtmwhat does khotkeys do?  Can I make new hot keys?23:11
dolomitewasn't alt+f2 present in kde3 too?23:11
avihaykwtm: system setings-> keyboard & mouse -> global keyboard shortcuts23:11
Walzmynkwtm: khotkeys is a way to asign key combinations to make shortcuts to commands23:11
kerncokrunner is a really nice tool.  It's moved past just being a way to run a program and is moving towards Gnome Do.23:11
avihaykwtm: the component you need to select is: "Run command interface"23:11
kwtmavihay: Okay, I found the answer to my question, but I have to say that you are not the first to say "system setings-> keyboard & mouse -> global keyboard shortcuts" but then I still get lost.23:12
kwtmavihay: Ah, okay, "run command interface" --that was the piece I was missing.23:12
kwtmavihay: Hey, can I add my own component?  Like "add ~/bin/MyArbitraryCommand.sh" to the components?23:12
WalzmynWhen copying files is there a way to make the copy process copy files linked by a symlink instead of copying the symlink itself?23:12
avihayyes23:13
avihaylet's be more specific. you want a global shortcut to do something when you press a key combination?23:13
kwtmWalzmyn: khotkeys might be what I'm looking for.  Is there any way to configure it other than from system settings?  RIght now it seems to be limited to defining what key will activate "print screen" and I can't add my own.23:13
Walzmynkwtm: been too long since I've used it, to be honest23:14
avihayyou can create your own hotkeys23:14
kwtmWalzmyn: you mean cp -l or cp -L?23:14
kwtmWalzmyn: I mean, cp --deference or cp --link?23:14
WalzmynI was using GUI. I was looking at the man page for cp trying to figure out if it followed links or just copied them23:15
Walzmynkwtm: in khotkeys, click the edit button on the lower left - there's a "new" option there. Looks like what you're looking for23:15
Walzmynkwtm: so, cp -L will copy the file not link, is that what it means by follow the link?23:16
kwtmWalzmyn: When I go to SystemSettings > Kbd/Mouse > Global Shortcuts > KHotkeys, is that khotkeys itself?  Or is khotkeys a separate program?  I can't seem to invoke it from the cmd-line.23:17
kwtmWalzmyn: I believe "cp -L" will do it, but test.  One of either "cp -L" or "cp -l" is what you want, but I don't know which one.23:17
Walzmynkwtm: I just hit alt-F2  --> khotkeys23:19
kwtmWalzmyn: Wow, it worked!!  I finally have my 6-character timestamp back again!!!23:20
kwtmI can save backup files again!23:20
Walzmynkwtm: i'm so glad... what's a 6 character time stamp?23:21
apparlehi guys23:21
kwtmWell, normal timestamps look like this: "2010-05-07 06:21:35".  My timestamp looks like this: "A576Ll"23:21
kwtmSo I can stick my timestamp into filenames easily, and it will always produce a unique, "pseudorandom" stamp but containing useful info: exactly when that file (or timestamp) was created.  And the filenames don't have to be 20 characters long!23:22
Walzmynah, that cp -L was the trick. Wonder if there's a way for force that on the GUI23:22
kwtmWalzmyn: You don't necessarily want to force it, at least by default.  If you're talking about something like krusader, you can define your own menu item for that.23:23
WalzmynI like that. What'd that have to do with khotkeys?23:23
Walzmynkwtm: no, i just meant for a single copy, not all the time23:23
kwtmWalzmyn: khotkeys: I needed a way to easily produce the timestamp without having to jump to the cmd line all the time (e.g. I might be saving a file in Firefox and just want to insert the timestamp into the filename).  SO khotkeys can make the timestamp appear.23:24
kwtmWalzmyn: What GUI are you using?  Dolphin?  Konq?23:25
Walzmynah, sweet idea. I might borrow it, I use a date stamp in my photo names23:25
WalzmynDolphin. but now that I know how to do it with CLI i'm set23:25
kwtmWalzmyn: The reason I mentioned the 6-character timestamp was because too many people keep telling me, "KDE 4 already has <some feature or other> that lets you put in timestamps".  And I want to say, "no, I mean my OWN brand of condensed timestamp!"23:25
Walzmynsuper's ready over here. ya'll take care23:26
kwtmWalzmyn: I wonder if you'd be interested in my python script to rename photo names with a timestamp?23:26
kwtmWalzmyn: It goes into the EXIF data and pulls out the time that the photo was taken, then adds a 6-character timestamp to the filename.23:26
WalzmynSure. I'll give it a look23:26
sunisiema23:26
kwtmWalzmyn: That way if I fiddle with the photo in GIMP or KolourPaint or something and destroy the EXIF data, the timestamp is still there.23:27
* Walzmyn nods23:27
kwtmWalzmyn: Needs a bit of cleanup.  I'll stick it in my Slashdot journal.  What's your email address?23:27

Luija1006Kate doesnt wanna open .js files, but in kubuntu 9.10 it opened them perfectly. It now says it cannot interpret the file, can someone help me? (trying to edit a script installed with greasemonkey)23:42
kerncoLuija1006: Sounds like the file is binary or something23:50
kerncoCan you open it in other text editors?23:50
Luija1006kernco the option to edit is into greasemonkey, then you choose your editor of choice, i could not tell you where the script is23:52
Luija1006but I dont understand really whats happening, in 9.10 it opened every .js flawlessly23:53
kerncoDo you know the name of the file?23:54
moj0risingHi. Silly question: How can I add a network printer in Kubuntu 10.04.23:55
kerncoKate will open any text file, it doesn't matter what the extension is.  So it's probably being given a bad filename23:55
moj0risingI've tried using the applet in System Settings and it hangs when I enter an IP address.23:55
Luija1006zer0rez: but then you have 2 laptops? its because I need the opinion of someone with ubuntu in Imac23:57
Luija1006Sup guys I have 3 questions about linux in Imac: 1) It is worth to install Linux into an imac or I should buy another computer in the market?, 2) Would you keep Mac Os or delete it?, 2) There is no hardware problems and its true the speed of linux in Imac pro is god? Thanks for your time :)23:57
moj0risingI've also Googled around and it wasn't easy to fnind much on this, surprisingly.23:57
