SJ_ZeroHi, all.00:11
SJ_ZeroHas anyone here ever had the experience of Ubuntu working on their hardware but not Kubuntu, or vice versa?00:11
SJ_ZeroI ask because I'm finding my KDE desktop works, but my Gnome doesn't, whether I install from CD or using apt-get.00:11
SJ_ZeroRather, the wireless networking.00:12

lokpest_hi, how do i conect to internet from the console, where I dont have access to knetworkmanager?00:16
skierpageMy motherboard Ethernet died.  I disabled it in BIOS and added a Linksys thernet PCI card. Linux was still looking for eth0 and thought this was eth1 , so I removed the lines in /etc/udev/blahblah/persitent-net-rules.00:16
moonrakerIs there a way to fix the kde4 kickoff menu.  Since the last update some menu's are currupted.00:17
skierpageNow the only Ethernet is eth0, but Kubuntu icon still shows Ethernet as unplugged and Unmanaged and Network Management disabled. ??!00:17
moonrakerthey work but there is a blue pipe looking grapic thing over some icons? hard to explain. some menu come up okay.  it's under the system menu selection.  Is there a way to just reinstall the kickoff menu? Thanks00:19
skierpagemoonraker, I'm no expert, but maybe `kbuildsycoca4 --noincremental` ?  I added a desktop file and screwed around rerunning variations of that a few times00:19
skierpagemoonraker, hmm if it's just graphic corruption then rebuilding isn't your problem.00:19
moonrakerever since todays's update. i'm running lucid.00:20
skierpagemoonraker, do you mean Kickoff or the new KDE 4 Application Launcher?  I think the latter replaced the former.00:21
moonrakerthe new kde4 application launcher.00:22
skierpagemoonraker, you could right-click on the bar, unlock widgets, then right-click on the K menu and choose "Remove this Application Launcher", then click  the peanut and choose "Add widgets" to add it back.  But you risk trashing the bar.00:22
skierpagemoonraker, might be safer to right-click the desktop, add a new panel, and add Application Launcher in that and see if the second one does any better.00:23
skierpagelokpest_ , I wish I knew. nm-tool shows what NetworkManager has done, but I don't know how to force it to do something different from the command line.00:25
lokpest_Bah, anyone that can answer my noob question a bit up?00:26
lokpest_Oops :)00:27
=== eristik|huginn is now known as tolkach
skierpagemoonraker, you can try dragging the "Application Launcher *Menu*" widget, it's plainer than App Launcher00:28

rellis__Hi everyone. I have an ATT 3G (Sierra Wireless USBconnect Mercury) card that worked fine under Kubuntu 9.10. Now when I plug the card in the OS recognizes it and I see it listed under the wireless icon in the system tray as "WWLAN". I can also edit the connection configuration successfully. However it never actually attempts the connection. If I right click and lcick on "WWLAN" manually nothing happens either. Any ideas? Is knetworkmanager just01:32
rellis__vicously buggy in this way?01:32
rellis__oh I forgot to say I just upgrade from Kubuntu 9.10 to 10.0401:32
rellis__The nm-tool command recxognizes and displays the ocnnection as well.01:33
moonrakerthaks for the help.  I got it by reinstalling the kde4 widgets. strange how the start or kick off launcher got currupted.01:33
Typos_Kingheheh01:33
Typos_Kingrellis__:   can you connect with nm-tool?   did you mean nm-applet?01:33
rellis__no, nm-tool only prints the status retrieved from NetworkManager01:34
Typos_Kinghehe01:34
Typos_Kingwell01:34
rellis__i can not under any circumstance get NetworkManager or the gui applet controlling it to attempt the ocnnection.01:34
Typos_KingI don't use knetworkmanager for one, which is what I think you're referring to, the icon on the tray, I use nm-applet, which you can install with -> sudo apt-get network-manager-gnome;   is not big either :)01:35
moonrakerI run my ubuntu on a proliant server.. Runs awsome.. eaiser then gentoo.. If anyine has screen resolution problems.. ie stuck in 800x600 my slution was a newer monitor. problem fixed itself.. I am very happy how it runs now.01:35
rellis__Typos_King: Yes I'm aware what it is. That's a pretty lame-hack-workaround though =/01:36
Typos_Kingbut I'd think you just haven't got an entry for an access point for WWLAN to connect to, and in knetworkmanager that's usually done by doing a quick scan and picking one and such01:36
rellis__Typos_King: Either the 3G support in knetworkmanager should work or it should be a listed bug.01:36
Typos_Kingrellis__:    I'd not call it a hack, is just a better manager to be fair01:36
rellis__It's a hack because it's not KDE native.01:37
rellis__uses GTK libs01:37
Typos_Kingtbh, knetworkmanager isn't that great, sorry to break it to you01:37
Typos_Kingmost other apps are, reason why I use kde :)01:37
rellis__eh i wouldnt say it's not that great01:38
rellis__probably just need ot understand it...01:38
moonrakerThis new kde4 is awsome.  I was long time fan of gentoo. but since i started using ubuntu.. i'm impressed.01:38
BluesKajrellis__, not a hack , gtk runs perfectly fine in a kde environment , some gnome apps are better than their kde equivalents .01:38
rellis__definitely a hack..01:39
rellis__but label it as you like01:39
Typos_Kinghehh01:39
Typos_Kingtalk about fan01:39
BluesKajuhhmm, who's labelling here ?01:39
Typos_Kingatic01:39
Typos_King^_^01:39
BluesKajI luv kde but the knetwork manager is really flaky01:40
Typos_Kingyeah, agree on that01:40
Typos_Kingto be honest, even the one from 7.1 worked better for me than the one in 9.1, they kinda messed it more in kde401:41
BluesKajprefer wicd but I'm not wifi-ing so network/interfaces works fine on eth001:41
LuisJaknetwork Manager suddenly stopped working in my Kubuntu laptop. I give thanks I have 2 laptops... I cannot connect not even to wired or wireless. Whats this bug? I need urgent help please01:41
Typos_KingLuisJa:     my advice for now will be,install network-manager-gnome :), knetworkmanager isn't that great, one of the few apps that aren't as good in kde401:42
BluesKajLuisJa, which kubuntu version ?01:42
Typos_King:P~01:43
BluesKajTypos_King, odd tho NM wifi works fine on my laptop01:43
Typos_Kingwell01:44
BluesKajon lucid01:44
Typos_Kingit does work for me too, knetworkmanager, is just flaky and gives me no stats on the signal either01:44
BluesKajTypos_King, what I meant was NM didn't work til lucid was installed ...had to wicd up to that point01:46
LuisJaTypos_King: I cant install anything dude... I dont have internet in the computer, not matter how much times I reboot, knetwork manager is "blocked", please people I need help01:46
Typos_Kingheheh01:46
LuisJahaha01:47
LuisJalets talk here dude, its kubuntu anyway01:47
LuisJaBluesKaj: 10.0401:47
LuisJaI am talking from Mirc windows lol01:47
Typos_Kingok01:48
Typos_Kinghehe01:48
LuisJaSo... I download the deb01:48
Typos_King...01:48
LuisJafrom this laptop and then install it in Kubuntu01:48
Typos_Kingare you on . 9.1?01:48
BluesKajLuisJa, so download wicd to the pc you are on right now and copy to a flash drive , then install it on kubuntu01:48
LuisJa10.0401:48
Typos_Kingwicd I think installs by default in 9.1, not sure01:48
BluesKajno01:48
LuisJaits pretty rare, knetwork simply suddenly stoped working01:49

BluesKajwhy would one use mirc/01:52
BluesKaj?01:52
Typos_Kinghehe01:52
rellis__Typos_King: THat workaround worked out nicely. Thanks for the tip.01:53
rellis__as much as i hate it :)01:53
Typos_KingLuisJa:   is not 1 file you know, lemme see if I can zip the .deb for you01:53
Typos_Kingheheh01:53
Typos_Kingrellis__:     as I said, I use kde apps more so than gnome's, reason why I run it, but knetworkmanager isn't their sharpest01:53
BluesKaj running maverick here , so far so good01:53
LuisJaoh Typos_King, so it is not a deb but a file.. then where I can get it? and when I go to kubuntu how I install it?01:54
LuisJabut a zip*01:54
BluesKajand synaptic is still my fav package manager ...use it as reference for installed apps01:54
Typos_KingLuisJa:     well, you unzip it, it'll show a bunch of .deb files, stick them to your usb stick, go over to the kubuntu machine and install off the usb :)01:55
rellis__fair enough, have a good night01:56
LuisJado you have a link to download it Typos_King?01:56
LuisJaalso I need to make a bug report?01:56

Typos_KingLuisJa:    install them using dpkg, go to the folder where all .deb are and fromt there do a -> sudo dpkg -i *01:58
Typos_Kingto run it just run 'nm-applet'01:58

LuisJaTypos_King BluesKaj?02:07
Typos_Kingheh02:07
Typos_Kingwell02:07
Typos_Kingare you right now in the kubuntu machine with the usb stick plugged in?02:08
LuisJayes02:08
Typos_KingI assume you're using dolphin.... did you unzip the file?02:08
LuisJayes, I saved it in desktop02:08
Typos_Kingok..... so.. . they landed in the "(nm-applet) network manager"  folder?02:10
LuisJayes02:10
Typos_Kingare you looking at all the .deb files in that folder right now, in Dolphin?02:10
LuisJayes02:10
Typos_Kingok, then press Shift-F4, or go to Tools > Open Terminal02:11
LuisJaoh ei02:11
Typos_Kingdolphin will open a terminal at that location02:11
LuisJa****** nice02:11
LuisJanever knew that trick02:11
LuisJavery useful, thanks dude :)02:11
Typos_Kingnow from there, do a -> sudo dpkg -i *02:11
LuisJadone02:12
Typos_Kingnow run nm-applet :)02:12
Typos_Kingyou may not want to do it from the terminal if you want it permanent02:13
Typos_Kingfor testing it is ok, but you'd want to, kde menu > run command02:13
Typos_Kingalthough more than likely it's already in the programs menu02:13
Typos_Kingreason why I said that is, any app 'spawned' from the terminal, will be closed as a child process once the terminal closes02:14
Typos_Kingneed to dash :)02:14

skramer_Mamarok: it seems I got the problems with Kontact / Akonadi fixed yesterday, only one last problem: closing Kontact once, I can't open it again09:24
moetunesit's only gotto give access to a menu09:24

moetunesi like cool    thnx :]09:49
Mamarokskramer_: you need to close kontact with Ctrl+Q, if you just close the window it is still running, see the Systray indicator09:52
eagles0513875hey guys im trying to update kopete as an update for it has been pushed to the repos but i keep getting these messages when i do http://pastebin.com/RRiUUy9W09:54
moetuneseagles0513875: lzma error- is it installed? - the first question09:56
eagles0513875moetunes: yes comes installed by default09:56
eagles0513875with lucid09:56
eagles0513875this was a clean install09:56

eagles0513875and i had it running i closed it thinking that was the problem yet the error still persists09:56
moetuneseagles0513875: your paste said it was replacing with amd64deb - you using 64bit?09:57
eagles0513875correct09:57

eagles0513875moetunes: this /usr/lib/kde4/kopete_yahoo.so10:02
moetuneseagles0513875: not disputing that - just wondered how yahoo got to be in there - do they do kde?10:03
eagles0513875moetunes: its probably the part of kopete that allows one to connect to the yahoo messenger protocol10:04
moetunesk10:04
moetunesseems to be where the error lies eagles051387510:05
eagles0513875moetunes: any ideas how to fix it10:05
moetuneseagles0513875: nope - sorry - was working from the error back - never use kopote here10:06
eagles0513875ok10:07
moetuneseagles0513875: my guess would be that yahoo maybe haven't updated to the protocol used by kopote in lucid  yet10:08

lyhana8explorealex: on version <10.04 you have to choose between nm or wicd, since 10.04 you can have both15:19
lyhana8lcars-daniel: try `jockey-text` and install the nvidia driver15:19
lcars-danielOkay15:19
lyhana8lcars-daniel: you can ask for help on #nvidia, by providing you /var/log/Xorg.log15:20
lcars-danielOkay.15:20
explorealexlyhana8:okay. so even if i go ahead and install wicd on ubuntu. i can access it on kde desktop and that takes care of my current problem. you think it is a viable solution?15:20
lyhana8explorealex: yeap but not sure wicd will solve your wifi problem15:21
lcars-danielCommand not found.  Tried apt-get for nvidia and package not found.15:21
explorealex lyhana8:ohh. then which other software would u suggest?15:21
lyhana8when you install something on Ubuntu (gnome desktop) or Kubuntu (KDE desktop) it's available on the other desktop (assuming they are on the same partition)15:21

lyhana8explorealex: do you reboot to get on your Kubuntu or just logout, change desktop, and login ?15:27
explorealexlyhana8:logout and change desktop. but given the option i would like to log in to kubuntu directly if i have a net connection.15:28
Buckylyhana8: can't find it. still in advanced?15:28
lyhana8Bucky: yeah `Service Manager`15:29
lyhana8explorealex: did you try to do it on a terminal ? like `ifcofing eth0 up` then `dhclient eth0`15:30
explorealex lyhana8no idea about all this. as i said. i am new. i downloaded a tar.bz file from the net. read the install instructions. didn't understand anything. then came on this channel using ubuntu.15:31
Buckylyhana8: found, but there's not kbluetooth15:32
lyhana8explorealex: use the package manager, system > administration > xyz15:34

lcars-danielOkay.16:15
tzangergood morning... can someone please tell me what "Enable multiple monitor virtual desktop support" actually does in the system settings?16:16
Izinucstzanger: there's two sizes to resolutions you have to consider.. the native resolution of the monitor(s) and the virtual desktop.. since the default for 2 monitors is "Twinview" the largest verticle resolution of a monitor and the combined horizontal resolution of both monitors is used for the virtual desktop when activating a dual monitor setup.  I hope I wrote that clear enough.. :)16:23
tzangerIzinucs: ahh, so if I have a 1280x800 laptop panel and an external 1920x1150 display I want that OFF. That certainly explains some of the weird cursor things I've been seeing with the external display disconnected (I think)16:24
Izinucstzanger: could be.. yes.. depends on your drivers and setup.. I installed the nvidia binary blob direct from their site and use nvidia-settings to control everything..16:26
tzangerIzinucs: yeah this is some intel internal video16:26
tzangergma950 or something IIRC16:26
Izinucstzanger: intel?  well that might explain it :)16:26
tzangerGM965 yeah16:27
okapi14Hi all, I am trying to use smb4k but this is the error I am getting "invalid command: net rap share list" any one has an idea how to fix this?16:27
Izinucsokapi14: if nobody knows here try #samba16:28
okapi14Izinucs: thanks16:29
tzangerIzinucs: do you know if there's a way to have KDE automatically reconfigure the screen layout when it detects the monitor plugged in and unplugged? Right now it waits until I go into the system settings and then it says "oh, your monitor setup has changed, want me to help you set that up?"16:30
Izinucstzanger: sorry I don't16:30
tzangerIzinucs: np, thanks anyway :-)16:31
JuJuBeeIf I formatted my partitions using ext4, is there a simple way to go back to ext3?  i was thinking of using dpkg getselections and setselections to clone the installation after reformatting the partitions.16:38
DarthFrogJuJuBee: I don't think you can go back with out reformatting.  Ext4 is an extent-based file system, ext3 isn't.16:38
JuJuBeeWhat are the advantages to ext4?16:39
DarthFrogextents. :-)16:39
JuJuBeeWhat does that mean for the average user?16:39
DarthFrogBetter performance overall, much less fragmentation, though ext3 is already pretty frag resistant.16:40
JuJuBeeSo prob ok with ext3 for average use?16:40
DarthFrogyes.16:40
JuJuBeeSo is my thought a fairly painless way to do it?  or is there a better way than reinstalling everything from scratch... (I know I need to reinstall os)16:41
DarthFrogTo do what?16:41
JuJuBeeI want to end up with the same machine / configuration after changing the fs16:42
DarthFrogFrom ext3 to ext4?16:42
JuJuBeeyes16:42
DarthFrogMy suggestion?  Buy a second hard drive, install the OS there and copy over your data.  that way your original system is untouched and you can run the two systems in parallel.16:43
Izinucsor create another partition that is next to your current /home.. format the way you want and copy your data there then reinstall..16:45
DarthFrogPainless is a very flexible term.  What you consider painful and a lot of work, I might consider routine.16:46
DarthFrogAnd if you want to end up where you started, why bother in the first place?16:46
=== evilshadeslayer is now known as evilshadeslayer_
JuJuBeeWell, we use ghost to deploy images and updates.  I wanted to use it to deploy to my linux machines also but I think it does not support ext4 yet.16:48

BluesKajaha ,I knew there was one16:51
BluesKajBBL, stuff to do16:51
DarthFrogJuJuBee: I'm far from a file system expert but I know you can convert between ext2fs and ext3fs very easily.  But I doubt you can go from ext3fs to/from ext4fs without reformatting.  But I don't know for sure.16:52
adubzhow do i change the icon of one file16:52
evilshadeslayer_DarthFrog: that can be done16:52
DarthFrogkaddi: virtuoso is the database backend to nepomuk and (I think) strigi.16:52
adubzit is a java jar file i dont want to change the icon for all jar files just the one program i am trying to use16:52
DarthFrogevilshadeslayer_: Without data loss?16:52

vince_Hi everyone20:30
KOLANICHhello all20:31
vince_hi KOLANICH20:31
KOLANICHhave anybody used microxwin20:32
speedvin_hi20:32
KOLANICH>have anybody used microxwin20:33
KOLANICHhas20:33
hceasyon?20:34
hceasyonwhat is microxwin ?20:34
vince_I've got a problem with wine, playing QUake II atm, everything's working pretty well but the sound is just awful20:34
b3ny0-why do you use wine for quake 2?20:35
speedvin_hceasyon: It's X micro version20:35
b3ny0-I thought all ID Software games had a native version for linux20:35
vince_I don't know how to install it, since all linux installers aren't that user-friendly, you know :p20:35
KOLANICHX Window Systems is a standard graphics framework for Unix/Linux desktops. There are large number of GUI toolkits and applications already written for X Windows Xlib API. X Windows is a network oriented and client-server design with the X server responsible for all graphics operations.20:36
KOLANICHMicroXwin is binary compatible to the Xlib API. However it is neither client server nor network oriented. Graphics operations are implemented in the linux kernel via a kernel module. An open source Xlib library sends graphics commands to the kernel. There is no network overhead and no context switch from X client to X server. This makes our solution smaller and faster than traditional X Windows.20:36
vince_and I read that Quake II was running way smoother with wine20:37
jensokohi. Anybody active on here?20:44
vince_Hi :)20:45
jensokoI'm looking for help with an install of kubuntu 10.04 on a netbook20:45
vince_Alright, what do you need ?20:46
jensokoI used usb-creator to make abootabl  usb thumb drive20:46
jensoko*bootable20:46
jensokowith the iso on it20:46
vince_yes20:46
jensokowhenever I boot my netbook (Thinkpad x100e)20:46
jensokofrom the usb, I can get the initial language screen and first menu, but when I try to run from the thumbdrive20:47
jensokoit hangs at the little picture of the hard drive20:47
jensokokeyboard unresponsive, and I end up having to hard reboot20:47
vince_I wish I could help you but I've never installed ubuntu from usb nor used netbooks :|20:48
jensokomy iso seems fine--matches the chksum20:49
jensokoand things *look* like they're progressing, until that initialization screen. When I tried to install from the LiveCD usb drive, things seemed to go fine all the way through, my partitions were successful20:50
jensokoand the reboot led me past the login screen, but then I got the same hangup thing.20:51
jensokoI'm not sure if it's 10.04, or the usb drive itself, or usb-creator20:51

jensokohi!20:52

BluesKajlooks like you have some IRQ interrupts diisabled23:18
txukieuhm...weird, isnt that activated on the bios normally?23:19
BluesKajare you rebooting when a particular app when this happens?23:19
BluesKajerr opening an app23:20
txukieno its totally random23:20
txukieit tends to happen when im actually doing something on the computer23:20
txukiebut sometimes it reboots on its own after hours or days of idle23:20
BluesKajtxukie, hmm there was a prob with high cpu usage, for no apparent reason ,in karmic when it was first released ,but i can't recall what the fix was.23:23
BluesKajthinking maybe your cpu may be overheating oe some such23:24
txukieso you think its overheating?....Ok ill dismantle and take a look inside, give it a clean and new termic paste if necessary23:24
txukiewhats the actual failsafe temperature though?23:25
BluesKajtxukie, a friend was complaining about similar sympto=ms earlier today , he was getting freezes first tho, then random reboots23:25
jsmullikencaHey folks, I've just re-installed 10.04 on my VMWare sled, and was looking for some evidence that there is a firewall running.  Does Ubuntu install and setup a firewall as part of the defaul build?23:26
BluesKajdepends on your processor23:26
txukiecore 2 duo e640023:26
BluesKaj!firewall | jsmullikenca,23:26
ubottujsmullikenca,: Ubuntu, like any other Linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW), or 'iptables' (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo). GUI frontends such as Firestarter/Gufw (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE) also exist.23:26
BluesKajtxukie,on karmic or lucid?23:27
txukielucid23:27
jsmullikencaHey BluesKaj, are you asking me what firewall?23:28
jsmullikencaOkay, the 'ufu' util is a CLI tool?23:29
BluesKajjsmullikenca, no I'm giving something to check out ...I'm behind a router so I dunno much about linux FWs23:29
txukiejsmullikenca: run sudo ufw status23:30
jsmullikencaAnd maybe I should clarify.  I'm trying to help a friend, who just installed on a netbook he has, and he was trying to share one of the shared drives from his Windoze box, and was having trouble.  I thought it may have been a firewall issue.23:30
jsmullikencaI looked around under "System" menu, but didn't see any tool for firewall config.23:30
jsmullikencaBut you guys may know what the issue is, so I'll welcome any suggestions.23:31
BluesKajthe fw on the windows box should be configged23:31
txukiejsmullikenca: run "sudo ufw status"23:32
jsmullikencaI came back with "sudo: ufu: command not found".23:32
BluesKajjsmullikenca, how is he accessing the windows share , smb networking thru dolphin ?23:32
jsmullikencaYeah, he has the smbd daemon running.23:32
BluesKajis the windows pc asking for user and pw ?23:33
dkelewaeyes23:33
jsmullikencaBut he was trying to click-drive to it through the "Places" menu.  Got his Win box to show up, but then couldn't connect to the share.23:33
dkelewaewhen i enter it takes forever then times out23:33
jsmullikencaThat's him now.23:33
txukiejsmullikenca: its ufw not ufu23:34
crazy6is there any way to get texmacs to install properly? http://pastebin.com/GevmcLA523:34
jsmullikencaSorry, that was a typo in IRC, not on the CLI23:35
jsmullikencaSorry, yes it was a typo on the CLI, let me retry.23:35

jsmullikencaI'm pretty sure he is running off of a wireless router, yes.23:37
dkelewaeyes23:37
jsmullikencadkelewae, did you run the "sudo ufw status" command?23:38
BluesKajdkelewae, if you knwo what the ip address is , then run the network and add network folder in dolphin , adailog should come up and fill in the appropriate boxes and shared folser on the windows pc23:38

jsmullikencaThanks Darth, but I just realized.  I'm running a default Ubuntu, so I'm running Gnome, and knot KDE.  Is that maybe why these menu options don't sound familiar to me?23:51
DarthFrogjsmullikenca: Ya think?  :-))23:52
jsmullikencaOkay, my bad.23:52
jsmullikencaJust so you know, I'm a KDE'er at heart.  Just installed this to support my good friend, who has made his first venture into Linux, by installing Ubuntu on his netbook, taking yet another piece of market share from the evil empire!!!!23:53
jsmullikencaWhoa.... not nearly as many Linux revolutionaries on the IRC channels as there used to be.23:55
DarthFrogAn OS is a tool, not a religious choice.23:55
jsmullikencaThe force is weak with this one.23:56
txukieI agree, I dont use linux to run away from the evil empire, I use it because its the best tool for me and because i believe in open standards23:56
jsmullikencaOkay, maybe I'm too much of a hopeless romantic.  I've been making my living supporting products running on Linux for over a decade now.  I just still love the fact that there is a "community" of like minded folks who are willing to help.  And willing to write code to do useful things for folks.23:59
