| oxymoron | maco: --addmode <output> <name> how to know which output, I have manually added new resolution now but need to know output | 00:06 |

| oxymoron | maco: "xrandr --addmode <output> <name>" how to know which output, I have manually added new resolution now but need to know output | 00:08 |
| oxymoron | genii: :P | 00:08 |
| maco | oxymoron: when you type "xrandr" it tells you teh name | 00:08 |
| oxymoron | maco: Not the name, the output? | 00:09 |
| maco | "default" | 00:09 |
| maco | (on my computer it's LVDS1 while the VGA is VGA1) | 00:09 |
| oxymoron | maco: so output should be default? | 00:10 |
| maco | yes according to your pastebin | 00:11 |
| oxymoron | maco: cvt and xrndr doesnt seem to work. | 00:12 |
| maco | oxymoron: then the driver's not good enough. oh well. | 00:12 |
| maco | theres really not much that you can do if youre not a reverse engineer & programmer | 00:12 |
| maco | well except find someone that is, and bribe them | 00:12 |
| oxymoron | maco: It works adding the resolution but nothing happens when choosing it in systemsettings | 00:13 |
| maco | then the driver doesnt support it | 00:13 |
| maco | you're stuck. it needs a change to the code | 00:13 |
| oxymoron | maco: Well I am sort of a programmer, but not really ... | 00:13 |
| oxymoron | maco: Google is my best frind hopefull I guess ... | 00:14 |
| cannonfodder | hey you guys....is there an online lookup of a websites traffic? something along the lines of the whois directories but i want to see a certain web sites traffic | 00:16 |
| maco | there's really not a whole lot google (the search engine) can for code-not-written though. google (the company) could of course hire people to write code but glwt | 00:16 |
| maco | cannonfodder: nope | 00:17 |

| RSA | what is kubuntu from ubuntu? | 00:34 |
| Mamarok | !kubuntu | RSA | 00:34 |
| ubottu | RSA: kubuntu is Ubuntu with the KDE Software Compilation instead of !Gnome. See http://kubuntu.org for more information - For support join #kubuntu - See also !kde | 00:34 |
| razed1 | !kde | 00:35 |
| ubottu | KDE (http://kde.org) is the !desktop environment used natively in !Kubuntu. To install from Ubuntu: « sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop », or see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingKDE . See http://kubuntu.org for more information. For more information on KDE 4, see !kde4 | 00:35 |
| RSA | oh ok and if i ask question about dbus, does that refer to kubuntu or ubuntu or both? | 00:35 |
| Mamarok | both | 00:35 |
| Mamarok | dbus is a freedesktop.org standard | 00:35 |
| RSA | oh ok | 00:36 |
| RSA | yeah i had that problem, its called dbus | 00:36 |
| razed1 | huh... wouldn't installing both KDE and Gnome be somewhat resource intensive, not to mention redundant? | 00:36 |
| razed1 | i mean i know they have different software sets, but i don't really see one having much of an advantage over the other | 00:36 |
| Mamarok | razed1: completely installing both might be needed on a computer used by different users who use different desktops | 00:37 |
| razed1 | aha! good call | 00:37 |
| RSA | how do i enable dbus? | 00:37 |
| Mamarok | else one can just install separate apss, they don't need the full desktop, only the libraries | 00:37 |
| razed1 | i was thinking in terms of a single user | 00:37 |
| Mamarok | RSA: it should be enabled by default. What exactly is your problem? A bit more details of the context might be needed | 00:38 |
| RSA | I was testing the function, i test a lot to learn from it, so i switched the function off, and than system went to shut down, cant use the keyboard at start up of the interface now, how do i activate dbus? | 00:38 |
| * DarthFrog slyly notes that RSA might learn even more if he solves this one on his own. :-) | 00:39 | |
| RSA | oh ok | 00:40 |
| RSA | how do i do that, on the internet you mean? | 00:40 |
| DarthFrog | razed1: What resources are you concerned about by having GNOME and KDE side by side? Only one runs at a time in a single user system, so the only resource consumed will be disk space. | 00:41 |
| DarthFrog | RSA: I don't know now to solve your problem. It was just a smartass comment on my part. :-) | 00:42 |
| RSA | Really? | 00:42 |
| RSA | Well than you must be so smart ass by now. | 00:42 |
| DarthFrog | Or better! :-) | 00:43 |
| Mamarok | DarthFrog and RSA: please, this is a support channel... | 00:43 |
| RSA | Well, you seem to look for something, keep looking. | 00:43 |
| f3n2x | hi guys, does anyone know why kwin is so slow and unresponsive with the restricted nvidia driver? | 00:44 |
| Mamarok | RSA: how did you switch it off, killed the daemon? | 00:45 |
| f3n2x | it runs smooth for about 10 seconds and then starts slowing down | 00:47 |
| f3n2x | nobody got an idea what could be the cause? | 00:52 |
| amason__ | f3n2x: i am unfortunately running the nvidia drivers here without issue | 00:54 |
| Mamarok | unfortunately? | 00:54 |
| amason__ | i would prefer not to be, but i'm at work and don't have choice. | 00:54 |
| amason__ | no KMS | 00:54 |
| amason__ | no xrandr | 00:55 |
| Mamarok | I don't get it, why is something running well unfortunate? | 00:55 |
| amason__ | its a pain in the backside when i undock / dock | 00:55 |
| amason__ | i have to manually configure the video displays | 00:56 |
| amason__ | as i have dual head when docked | 00:56 |
| amason__ | with my intel chipset ( which also ran perfectly ) i had a small script to set the desktop to dual head when i docked | 00:56 |
| amason__ | and back when i undocked | 00:56 |
| amason__ | and when i plugged in a projector it just worked | 00:57 |
| f3n2x | does your vsync work? | 00:57 |
| amason__ | yes as far as i know | 00:57 |
| amason__ | i don't get any tearing | 00:57 |
| f3n2x | it's strange | 00:57 |
| f3n2x | i got tearing but only at the top of the screen | 00:58 |
| amason__ | Mamarok: i also don't think nvidia is supporting the newer versions of X so whilst i'm on kubuntu its fine but if i wanted to switch to another distro i would be sol. | 00:58 |
| f3n2x | if i disable vsync theres tearing all over the place | 00:58 |
| amason__ | f3n2x: do you have the issue with gnome or xfce? | 00:59 |
| f3n2x | no its just kwin | 00:59 |
| amason__ | rather xfwm4 or compiz | 00:59 |
| amason__ | ah ok | 00:59 |
| f3n2x | if i switch to compiz in kde its smooth | 00:59 |
| amason__ | does it go away if compositing is disabled ? | 00:59 |
| f3n2x | if compositing is disabled its even worse :( | 01:00 |
| f3n2x | then it's like singlebuffering with bufferclears every few seconds | 01:01 |
| f3n2x | but i guess thats a different issue | 01:01 |
| amason__ | f3n2x: your running lucid ? | 01:02 |
| amason__ | with the nvidia driivers from the ubuntu repos ? | 01:02 |
| f3n2x | it's been like that since 4.2 or so | 01:03 |
| f3n2x | yes lucid | 01:03 |
| f3n2x | with the driver from the restricted drivers manager | 01:03 |
| amason__ | does it also happen with nuevo (however you spell it ) drivers ? | 01:04 |
| f3n2x | iirc no | 01:05 |
| Luija1006 | Hello people how I can install my language: Spanish, Panama to the system? (I dont see it in the lists, but if you install with a Live CD choosing english it will appear, but this time I instaled from a English Live CD) | 01:05 |
| amason__ | f3n2x: i guess file a bug with nvidia, not sure how you would go about doing that though.. | 01:06 |
| hannah | Is it possible gemerate xorg.conf file with xserver running | 01:07 |
| Typos_King | hannah: I'd prefer not to :) | 01:08 |
| Luija1006 | Hello people how I can install my language: Spanish, Panama to the system? (I dont see it in the lists, but if you install with a Live CD choosing english it will appear, but this time I instaled from a English Live CD) | 01:08 |
| Typos_King | I guess you can make/paste your own, wont' be used till xserver restart though | 01:08 |
| Luija1006 | choosing spanish* | 01:08 |
| Typos_King | Luija1006: maybe you'll just need to reinstall, and choose 'spanish' this time around :) | 01:09 |
| amason__ | hannah: i don't think so. | 01:09 |
| boby | help? | 01:09 |
| Luija1006 | Typos_King: -_- | 01:10 |
| Luija1006 | I need to install the language packages, you know how to do it? | 01:10 |
| Typos_King | Luija1006: I don't think you can switch languages once the installation is through | 01:10 |
| Typos_King | well | 01:10 |
| Typos_King | you 'think' you need to install the language packages, yes, not sure if that's how that works, I can is what you 'think' it does | 01:11 |
| Typos_King | s/I can/I can see/ | 01:11 |
| Luija1006 | If you click install another language, spanish España is in the list, but no spanish panama, it appears when you install an live cd with spanish, no other way to install it? | 01:11 |
| Mamarok | Typos_King: of course you can | 01:11 |
| darkdelusions | Can anyone tell me why nvidia-setting will not save my xorg for my dual monitors I keep getting the error Failed to phrase existing X config | 01:11 |
| darkdelusions | I ran it under kdesu | 01:12 |
| Mamarok | Luija1006: start the package installer and search for the language you are looking for, those should be all in the repos | 01:12 |
| amason__ | darkdelusions: try #nvidia | 01:12 |
| boby | after clean install of kubuntu 10.04 it freezes on spash screen. I enter console and run apt-get update, upgrade and dist-upgrade. Now it keeps showing me login screen no matter how menz times I eneter my user and pass | 01:12 |
| amason__ | darkdelusions: they would probably have the best idea. | 01:13 |
| Mamarok | boby: do you know how to run a console in command line? | 01:13 |
| Typos_King | Mamarok: ... I see | 01:13 |
| boby | yes | 01:13 |
| hannah | Typos_King: I need to do it because turning off xserver then computer crashes ... | 01:13 |
| boby | i enter to x from konsole with startx | 01:13 |
| Mamarok | boby: then go to the TTY1, and move your $HOME/.kde/ folder elsewhere, then back to TTY 7 and try again | 01:14 |
| darkdelusions | amason__: meh the power of google is faster :) just wante to see if anyone know off the top of there head | 01:14 |
| Typos_King | hannah: what makes you think a xorg.conf file will give fix it? | 01:14 |
| hannah | Mamarok: Do you know whre to find source code of default xserver xorg confi file? | 01:14 |
| Typos_King | hannah: I mean, do you know why is crashing? | 01:14 |
| Mamarok | boby: no, you go to TTY with Ctrl+AltQF1 | 01:14 |
| Mamarok | -Q | 01:14 |
| boby | Ctrl+Alt+F1? | 01:15 |
| Mamarok | yes | 01:15 |
| boby | and move my home folder | 01:15 |
| Mamarok | no need to kill X or startx | 01:15 |
| boby | *my kde folder | 01:15 |
| amason__ | darkdelusions: google is usually faster | 01:15 |
| hannah | Typos_King: Because I applied a manual Sis 671 driver and need to force xserver use it and it crashes as in ant war and you cant see anything on the screen | 01:15 |
| Mamarok | boby: yes, your .kde folder | 01:16 |
| hannah | Typos_King: cannot geerate xorg.conf and cant find default | 01:18 |
| Mamarok | bedtime, good night everyone | 01:19 |
| Luija1006 | Mamarok: Thanks, my language is now installed :) | 01:19 |
| Mamarok | Luija1006: you can switch languages in SystemSettings -> Region & Language | 01:19 |
| Luija1006 | yeah I know I did that, thanks | 01:19 |
| Mamarok | as well as switching the keyboard | 01:19 |
| alket1 | I am using Ubuntu for 3 years and never looked back, now I have spare time and want to try Kubuntu, what is major differnece except KDE ? | 01:27 |
| amason__ | alket1: nothing afaik | 01:29 |
| alket1 | thank you amason__ | 01:29 |
| Mamarok | !kubuntu | alket1 | 01:29 |
| ubottu | alket1: kubuntu is Ubuntu with the KDE Software Compilation instead of !Gnome. See http://kubuntu.org for more information - For support join #kubuntu - See also !kde | 01:29 |
| Mamarok | amason__: there is a difference | 01:29 |
| amason__ | Mamarok: there is ? | 01:30 |
| amason__ | what is different outside of the DE ? | 01:30 |
| amason__ | from X to the kernel I thought it was all the same save for the splash screen? | 01:31 |
| Typos_King_ | alket1: difference being, ahe... just different window manager and desktop manager :) | 01:33 |
| alket1 | ok thank you | 01:34 |
| Typos_King_ | alket1: kubuntu uses kde by default for both, and kde is more a so-called 'eye-candy' than others | 01:34 |
| Mamarok | amason__: so a different desktop is not a difference? | 01:34 |
| alket1 | but Gnome can be eye-candy too | 01:34 |
| alket1 | i like 10.04 default design in Ubuntu | 01:34 |
| amason__ | Mamarok: if you have a look at whatn alket1 said "what is major differnece except KDE " | 01:35 |
| amason__ | he/she was already aware the desktop was different | 01:35 |
| Mamarok | amason__: well, the initial question was if there was a difference between Kubuntu and Ubuntu and you said no | 01:36 |
| amason__ | no | 01:36 |
| Mamarok | read again | 01:36 |
| amason__ | it wasn't | 01:36 |
| amason__ | i think you should read again | 01:36 |
| alket1 | ok i got let drop it, so my final question is NetWork manager | 01:36 |
| Mamarok | oh, I missed the two last words :) | 01:36 |
| alket1 | is it same ? | 01:36 |
| Mamarok | no | 01:36 |
| Mamarok | since the network manager is part of the desktop | 01:37 |
| alket1 | ok thank you all | 01:37 |
| alket1 | bye | 01:37 |
| amason__ | it is the same | 01:37 |
| Mamarok | amason__: not here | 01:37 |
| amason__ | Mamarok: nm-applet is made by network manager guys but its not part of network manager | 01:37 |
| Mamarok | amason__: I don't talk about the applet | 01:37 |
| amason__ | then its the same | 01:38 |
| Typos_King_ | alket1: yes , indeed, kde can be more GUIsh per se than gnome, I prefer it because I use most kde apps, as I find them more practical and useful, than gnome's, I use a few gnome ones | 01:38 |
| Mamarok | *sigh* | 01:38 |
| Mamarok | Typos_King_: he has left already | 01:38 |
| Typos_King_ | I noticed, yeah | 01:38 |
| Mamarok | amason__: have a look at the gonme network manager and then compare, it is not | 01:38 |
| Mamarok | gnome* | 01:39 |
| * Mamarok needs sleep | 01:39 | |
| amason__ | ok ,disregard the desktop | 01:39 |
| amason__ | everything else is the same | 01:39 |
| amason__ | from X down to the kernel | 01:39 |
| amason__ | the same | 01:39 |
| Mamarok | now I agree | 01:39 |
| amason__ | he/she specifically said "except KDE" | 01:40 |
| amason__ | so excepting that KDE is different the rest is the same | 01:40 |

| ForgeAus | how do I switch back my default WM to KDE, LXDE stole the default | 02:46 |
| jschall | I can't get my mic to capture, I can turn up the mic volume and hear myself on my speakers, but it won't capture in skype or in ventrilo or anything else running in wine. Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801JI (ICH10 Family) HD Audio Controller. I don't have pulseaudio. | 02:49 |
| ForgeAus | grrr stupid connection dropouts :( | 02:51 |
| ckipping | hello? | 02:56 |
| ForgeAus | hello? | 02:58 |
| ForgeAus | no dropbox in the repos? | 03:34 |
| ForgeAus | !info dropbox | 03:34 |
| ubottu | Package dropbox does not exist in lucid | 03:34 |
| bawww | while we're on the subject, does anyone know you can disable dropbox autosyncing ? | 03:37 |
| mase_wk | ForgeAus: isn't dropbox a proprietary application ? | 03:39 |
| mase_wk | i don't think that would be in the repos unless it's in the partner repos | 03:40 |
| draik | How do I add myself to the new /etc/sudoers file? | 03:41 |
| mase_wk | visudo as a user that has sudo or root privs | 03:41 |
| draik | mase_wk: There is no /etc/sudoers file. There is now a /etc/sudoers.d/ directory, but no file for me to modify. | 03:42 |
| ForgeAus | heheh MacOSX has Dropbox built into finder but I don't know if it does the same thing as the nautilus plugin one does | 03:43 |
| mase_wk | draik: so what happens if you run visudo ? | 03:43 |
| mase_wk | is this a default install? ie not a vm-template install (debbootstrap etc..) | 03:44 |
| draik | mase_wk: Permission Denied. Fresh install | 03:44 |
| mase_wk | you need to do it as someone who has root privs | 03:45 |
| mase_wk | when you install kubuntu the first user will have sudo privs | 03:45 |
| draik | yeah, just realized I didn't type sudo before that. Sorry. Now I have it | 03:45 |
| draik | Thank you mase_wk | 03:45 |
| mase_wk | k | 03:45 |
| mase_wk | np | 03:45 |
| draik | How do I set a static IP address on a desktop? | 03:51 |
| draik | I have this on a network with 2 other computers and my PS3 (wireless) | 03:51 |
| mase_wk | draik: /etc/network/interfaces | 03:56 |
| mase_wk | otherwise you can assign a static lease from your router | 03:57 |
| mase_wk | based on the mac address | 03:57 |
| swapy | draik: use network manager | 03:57 |
| ForgeAus | what do I need to share/serve samba? | 03:59 |
| mase_wk | ForgeAus: the samba package should provide you with the necessary software | 03:59 |
| mase_wk | it should handle the dependancies | 04:00 |
| draik | mase_wk: Thanks. I'll try that. | 04:00 |
| ForgeAus | but is there any built in KDE gui to config it? | 04:01 |
| mase_wk | i don't think there is one built in, smb4k might work. I have never really tried using a gui tool so don't take it as gospel. it could be for client stuff onnly | 04:02 |
| draik | mase_wk: What is the syntax for having a static IP address in the /etc/network/interfaces file? | 04:02 |
| mase_wk | draik: its too long to paste in here but there is a good example in the man page description which you can copy paste. man interfaces will bring up the man page | 04:04 |
| rbucks | has anybody had trouble getting wireless on kubuntu with acer aspire one? | 04:06 |
| ForgeAus | ahh found it | 04:07 |

| rork | np, so were we all once. | 10:06 |
| supinps | hello rork, I just launched the application Konversation,,, Is this just like a chat client | 10:10 |
| rork | supinps: yes, but for the irc networks only, it's not an instant messenger | 10:10 |
| supinps | then what is it | 10:11 |
| supinps | if its not IM | 10:11 |
| rork | supinps: IRC is a network with channels (chatrooms) and users. Multiple users are connected to one channel. It is possible to private chat with someone but from my point of view the channels are most important. In that it's different from IM's where your contact list is the most important | 10:15 |
| supinps | ok thank you | 10:15 |
| rork | supinps: maybe I have to correct my definitions though, for messages are sent instantly :) | 10:16 |
| supinps | We have so many channels in irc | 10:16 |
| supinps | can you tell how to find them | 10:16 |
| rork | supinps: currently there are 33261 channels in total, there should be an option to get a list of them but I don't know how to get it using konversation as I'm using another IRC client. If you look for help for certain software or for a certain topic you can look for a channel on the software's website under help or you can just try to join the channel with #topic, where topic is the name of the topic. e.g. #football will (probably) get you in a | 10:21 |
| rork | channel where they talk about football and if you need help with kubuntu you can join #kubuntu (which is the channel you are in now). To join a channel use the command `/join #channel` (without the `) in the messagebar. | 10:21 |

| silv3r_m00n | why ? | 13:52 |
| silv3r_m00n | anybody ? | 14:06 |
| ForgeAus | whoever was looking for an ark replacement I'd go for xarchiver... | 14:11 |
| ForgeAus | (note: actually I should say alternative, replacing ark isn't such a great idea) | 14:12 |
| ForgeAus | some stuff like konqueror, possibly dolphin and other kde stuff may require/expect ark to be there, so better if you install both and just use xarchiver | 14:13 |
| ForgeAus | (note: the gnome verson of ark is called file roller I think, but I havn't used it so I don't know what its like) | 14:13 |
| ForgeAus | of course instead of using an archiving tool you could always use krusader (a twin-panel file manager) thats gui, or if you prefer terminal mc will do... | 14:15 |

| CryojenX | It's a Mac Pro and still pretty new, never had problems before | 14:47 |
| CryojenX | well, at any rate, what file would i look at to check out the error messages? | 14:47 |
| thesaint | If I've (as admin) loaded the necessary plugins and added the resrtricted repositories to play mp3 and I'm playing mp3's on two of seven user accounts on my computer, shouldn't I , in theory, be able to play them on all accounts? | 14:49 |
| maco | thesaint: sounds right yeah | 14:50 |
| maco | CryojenX: um dont know a file, but to do a hard drive diagnostic test, youd use smartctl | 14:51 |
| maco | CryojenX: thats in teh smartmontools package | 14:51 |
| thesaint | maco: that's what I thought, but something has gummed up the works. | 14:51 |
| maco | thesaint: did you install them using apt or did you use the "get more stuff" buttons that pop up on occasion? | 14:52 |
| CryojenX | thx, I just checked the boot.log and it doesnt have any errors whatsoever... odd | 14:52 |
| maco | possibly the latter do something with . files? | 14:52 |
| maco | CryojenX: thats because theres no bootlogger and hasnt been in 3+ years | 14:52 |

| maco | hmm weird | 14:55 |
| thesaint | maco: when I go onto my wife's account it shows that the plugins are there but when I press play in amarok it says that the song is playing but the progress bar does not move. Does fine with any other format (WMA, OGG, etc) | 14:56 |
| thesaint | maco: may be an amarok issue, I guess | 14:57 |
| maco | can you play them with mpg123? | 14:57 |
| thesaint | maco: i've not tried. hold on. | 14:57 |
| thesaint | maco: wait, that won't matter I'm on my account. | 14:58 |
| maco | heh | 14:59 |
| thesaint | maco: It's early and I'm without coffee. | 14:59 |
| thesaint | maco: ok, i'll go try and see if that works. if not should I assume a plugin issue and not Amarok? | 15:00 |
| maco | yeah then id assume a weird codec issue | 15:00 |
| thesaint | maco: thanks for the help. | 15:00 |

| rohan | is there any way to remove ubuntu-desktop (or kubuntu-desktop) completely, with ALL its dependencies? basically if i want to "convert" an ubuntu system to kubuntu, or vice-versa | 17:56 |

| phoenix__ | is there a way to redirect bass | 17:57 |
| DarthFrog | rohan: Ubuntu-desktop is a meta-package. Uninstalling it won't do anything. What happens if you try to uninstall one of the most basic GNOME libs? that should trigger a cascade of dependencies. You could then go and uninstall all the dependent packages. | 17:59 |

| IIVQ | mouse keeps moving but no reaction whatsoever, other than prtScr+B | 18:36 |
| IIVQ | capslock doesn't give a reaction | 18:36 |
| IIVQ | any idea how I could see what happened / why it froze? | 18:36 |
| IIVQ | it uses 10.04 amd-64 btw, on an intel core i7 | 18:37 |
| IIVQ | anyone? | 18:39 |
| human | IIVQ | 18:39 |
| human | try to use GNOME | 18:40 |

| IIVQ | no human, not me | 18:40 |
| human | ok | 18:41 |
| human | Do you use Kompiz? | 18:41 |

| IIVQ | human: I think it happened most of the times, sometimes after 10 minutes, sometimes after hours | 18:42 |
| cuznt | when i restart my wife's kubuntu 4.4 it goes to a prompt. a terminal kind | 18:42 |
| cuznt | is there a way to start KDE from that? | 18:42 |

| DarthFrog | human: http://www.redhat.com/magazine/001nov04/features/vm/ | 18:51 |
| tsimpson | human: -> virtual memory is not all RAM <- | 18:51 |
| human | DarthFrog, I know what is virtual memory! | 18:51 |
| human | I have only 786 in swap! | 18:51 |

| human | See it in your system monitors | 18:52 |
| human | Do you have the same digits? | 18:52 |

| tsimpson | Ekiga, Twinkle or Wengophone. according to the wiki | 18:54 |
| CryojenX | yup | 18:54 |
| IIVQ | jimmy51_: for doing skype? | 18:55 |
| IIVQ | you can only use "real" skype to contact others using skype, IIRC | 18:55 |
| IIVQ | and it works like a charm | 18:55 |
| IIVQ | Kubuntu is scary in how good it supports hardware | 18:55 |

| === rachid is now known as rachid_ | ||
| DarthFrog | CryojenX: Do you have a LAN? Can you access Apache from another machine on the LAN? | 18:59 |
| CryojenX | good question, let me check | 18:59 |
| human | virtual memory is the memory amount that addressed as RAM, but located in HDD | 18:59 |
| tsimpson | human: no, it has nothing to do with RAM | 18:59 |
| tsimpson | it's just an address space | 19:00 |
| human | tsimpson | 19:00 |
| DarthFrog | human: It can be, yes. But this is just addressable. | 19:00 |
| tsimpson | you need to decouple the idea of "RAM" and "virtual address space" | 19:00 |
| DarthFrog | Perhaps calling it "imaginary | 19:00 |
| DarthFrog | is better than virtual here. | 19:00 |
| CryojenX | DarthFrog: No, cant access it via other box | 19:00 |
| DarthFrog | CryojenX: Then the problem is not with your router, likely. | 19:01 |
| CryojenX | hmm | 19:01 |
| tsimpson | CryojenX: is there anything interesting in /var/log/apache2/? | 19:01 |
| CryojenX | looking | 19:01 |
| DarthFrog | CryojenX: do: "sudo iptables -F" and try again. | 19:01 |
| human | tsimpson, explain me, why firefox uses 233 of virtual memory and 33 of physical? | 19:01 |
| tsimpson | there should be an access.log and an error.log | 19:01 |
| tsimpson | human: because it maps some files (like history, bookmarks, passwords and icons) into its address space | 19:02 |
| CryojenX | and other_vhosts_access.log | 19:02 |
| tsimpson | those take up no RAM, but are accessible from the process, as if they were | 19:02 |
| human | I have only 10GB in my root drive and have not mounted anything else! | 19:02 |
| tsimpson | things can be mapped more than once | 19:02 |
| DarthFrog | human: Do you understand the concept of address space? | 19:03 |
| tsimpson | lots of GTK apps map the same stuff in several processes | 19:03 |
| tsimpson | same with KDE and plain X | 19:03 |
| human | Yes | 19:03 |
| DarthFrog | human: You are confusing an address space with disk space. | 19:03 |
| CryojenX | tsimpson: access.log error.log other_vhosts_access.log | 19:03 |
| tsimpson | CryojenX: anything in them? | 19:04 |
| CryojenX | looking | 19:04 |
| tsimpson | the other_vhosts_access.log probably contains some "(internal)" stuff | 19:04 |
| human | DarthFrog, maybe. I think I should read some texts, but it is strange. How cat I see the used swap space? | 19:05 |
| tsimpson | "free -m" from a terminal | 19:05 |
| DarthFrog | human: Use "top" or, better yet, "htop". | 19:05 |

| Pici | zelhar: Ask a complete question and we might be able to help. | 19:37 |
| zelhar | I have a problem with Kubuntu's update manager since upgrading to lucid | 19:38 |
| zelhar | I get this error https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/packagekit/+bug/546607 | 19:38 |
| jimmy51_ | it looks like ekiga requires a tone of gnome stuff. is there something else i can install that is already covered with qt/kde libs? | 19:40 |
| RobiX | is there an admin - it's because of banning | 19:40 |
| tsimpson | jimmy51_: maybe kphone | 19:41 |
| CryojenX | tsimpson: I'm able to access my server within the LAN, still not from outside tho | 19:42 |
| tsimpson | CryojenX: have you checked that the ports are forwarded properly, to the right internal IP etc? | 19:43 |
| crazy6 | after an upgrade to 10.04, I can't log in anymore; kdm comes up, but it just drops back to KDM after a second | 19:43 |
| CryojenX | tsimpson: I believe so, unless I'm missing something. | 19:43 |
| oxymoron | HELP WITH krdc/krfb NOW please? | 19:44 |
| tsimpson | it should "just work" if you forward external port 80 TCP to <your internal IP> port 80 TCP | 19:44 |
| oxymoron | My girl send me the "192.168.1.2:5900" info and a password, how da heck to I connect to her computer? :S | 19:44 |
| tsimpson | at least it does here | 19:44 |
| CryojenX | is it possible my ISP may be blocking port 80? | 19:44 |
| tsimpson | oxymoron: you can't, it's an internal IP | 19:45 |
| maco | ssh | 19:45 |
| maco | she need to have an ssh server running though | 19:45 |
| maco | oxymoron: ^ | 19:45 |
| oxymoron | tsimpson: I have her public IP as well. | 19:45 |
| maco | oh wait remote desktop? nevermind | 19:45 |
| oxymoron | maco: I want to connect to her computer and fix Spotify installation, is KRDC the right thing os do I need ssh isntead of VNC? | 19:46 |
| tsimpson | oxymoron: try krdc (KDE Remove Desktop Client) | 19:46 |
| tsimpson | KRDC does "windows" and VNC IIRC | 19:46 |
| maco | sure you can do remote desktop. i just dont know how | 19:46 |
| oxymoron | tsimpson: Yeah I have krdc open but it says cannot connect to server and it doesnt ask for the password? :S | 19:46 |
| maco | oxymoron: are you on teh same LAN? | 19:46 |
| tsimpson | CryojenX: it may | 19:46 |
| maco | oxymoron: if if not, did she set up port forwarding? | 19:47 |
| tsimpson | oxymoron: she may need to forward the port | 19:47 |
| maco | oxymoron: if not, she needs to go configure her router | 19:47 |
| oxymoron | maco: krfb she uses to send me VNC invite I guess and then I should connecto to her in krdc but I dont know the format, It should be something with ip:port-password? :S | 19:47 |
| oxymoron | maco: Well its not on same LAN and port forwardning for 5900 I dont know really. | 19:47 |
| maco | well knowing her internal ip (the 192.168 one) is useless | 19:48 |
| oxymoron | maco: Krfb says it listen automaticly on port 5900 | 19:48 |
| oxymoron | maco: I know here public IP as well, so no problemmo | 19:48 |
| maco | doesnt matter what the machine's listening on if you cant get past the router | 19:48 |
| maco | but is the router forwarding to her port 5900? | 19:48 |
| oxymoron | damn it, then I guess I have to guide her through router config xD | 19:49 |
| maco | if the router's not saying "hey look traffic on 5900, i need to forward that to THIS internal ip" then its not going to work | 19:49 |
| zelhar | OK, another question: After the upgrade the Ubuntu repository I used was added to the "other software" part, and if i disable it there, then it seems like I can't update my system- because with it I get update packages and when I disable it and reload I don't get any update options | 19:49 |
| nimrod | i burned a live cd of kubuntu 10.04 LTS | 19:49 |
| oxymoron | I think Netgear router should do it automaticly, just torrents that need forwardning I htink. | 19:49 |
| nimrod | and after i boot | 19:49 |
| crazy6 | is there some way I can call dpkg-reconfigure for all packages? | 19:49 |
| nimrod | and got to install kubuntu, the screen goes blank and nothing happens | 19:49 |
| nimrod | i have no idea whats wrong | 19:50 |
| oxymoron | maco: Btw you helped me with SiS graphics yesterday I think, thanks :) | 19:50 |
| CryojenX | ok this is interesting. my httpd.conf file has nothing in it | 19:50 |
| nimrod | and the cd burned correctly as well | 19:50 |
| IIVQ | hmmm | 19:50 |
| * oxymoron is brb, foodtime | 19:50 | |
| maco | zelhar: why are you surprised that disabling a repository makes updates from it no longer available? | 19:50 |
| nimrod | used imgburn to burn it | 19:50 |
| nimrod | ö.ö | 19:50 |
| IIVQ | I have no idea about the file manager | 19:50 |
| IIVQ | sorry | 19:50 |
| maco | zelhar: would be *Really* broken if a disabled repo was still giving you updates | 19:50 |
| IIVQ | about the crashes | 19:50 |
| zelhar | because I still have the main repo enabled, just not the one in "other" | 19:50 |
| IIVQ | I'll get here again if my box crashes again | 19:51 |
| maco | zelhar: so the only updates that are available are in that disabled repo and the main repo doesnt have any for ya | 19:51 |
| zelhar | but the disabled repo is one of theo official mirrors of Ubuntu | 19:51 |
| maco | so dont disable it? | 19:52 |
| zelhar | yea sure, but it just slow to load it | 19:53 |
| phoenix__ | i want to redirect bass to subwoofer, is there a application or plugin that i can use | 19:55 |
| nimrod | do you guys have a link where i can install 9.10? | 19:56 |
| nimrod | ill just upgrade when ive got it | 19:56 |
| nimrod | 10.04 is giving me hell | 19:56 |
| Scunizi | nimrod: do you have a gforce motherboard? or sli motherboard? | 19:58 |
| nimrod | no idea what kind | 19:59 |
| nimrod | lol | 19:59 |
| nimrod | how do i check? | 20:00 |
| Scunizi | nimrod: you might try this.. when booting the cd, on the first screen that shows up you can typically hit F6 to edit the kernel boot line.. at the end of that line is "quiet splash".. just before that type in "pci=nomsi" without the quotes and then hit enter to continue the boot process.. then try an install. | 20:01 |
| nimrod | alright | 20:01 |
| nimrod | ty | 20:01 |
| crazy6 | is there a way to do a dist-downgrade back to 9.10 ? | 20:02 |
| Scunizi | you're welcome.. but we don't know if that will fix the install process or not :) | 20:02 |
| Scunizi | crazy6: no.. only by reinstalling | 20:02 |
| nimrod | after i hit install kubuntu | 20:02 |
| nimrod | it just sit there black screen | 20:02 |
| nimrod | lol | 20:02 |
| nimrod | sits* | 20:02 |
| Scunizi | nimrod: on the first screen that shows up when booting the disk push F6 | 20:02 |
| nimrod | alright | 20:03 |
| Scunizi | crazy6: why? | 20:03 |
| nimrod | how would i know what kind of mother board i have? | 20:03 |
| nimrod | motherboard | 20:03 |
| nimrod | * | 20:03 |
| crazy6 | Scunizi: upgrade to 10.04 generate a problem wherein I can't log into KDE anymore | 20:03 |
| Scunizi | nimrod: using sudo lshw on a terminal .. but you have to get to a terminal first.. find the listing for the motherboard and then google it for what it is.. but that's no guarantee anyway.. | 20:04 |
| nimrod | im on windows xp | 20:04 |
| Scunizi | crazy6: do you get a terminal prompt or black screen ? | 20:04 |
| nimrod | lol | 20:04 |
| CryojenX | it appears my ISP is blocking both port 80 and port 8080 | 20:04 |
| Scunizi | nimrod: you trying to do a wubi install? | 20:05 |
| crazy6 | Scunizi: black screen for a second, goes back to KDM | 20:05 |
| nimrod | no | 20:05 |
| nimrod | live cd | 20:05 |
| nimrod | on a patïtion | 20:05 |
| nimrod | +r | 20:05 |
| FloodBotK2 | nimrod: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 20:05 |
| crazy6 | Scunizi: I'm looking through log files, but I'm not sure which ones to check... and I'm not sure which error is actually the root of it | 20:05 |
| Scunizi | CryojenX: that's typical. | 20:05 |
| CryojenX | should I set it up to listen on a nonstandard port? | 20:06 |
| Scunizi | crazy6: kdm is the desktop.. the login screen? | 20:06 |
| Scunizi | CryojenX: sure.. you might also have to use a service like dyndns.com if you don't have a static ip address | 20:06 |
| crazy6 | Scunizi: the loging manager; that screen works, but I can't get to the desktop, it just drops back to the login screen | 20:07 |
| thopiekar | hi | 20:07 |
| thopiekar | I've got a problem w/ kaffeine to search for DVB-S channels.. I get kaffeine(7316) DvbDevice::frontendEvent: tuning failed when trying to search for channels on Astra 1 | 20:08 |
| Scunizi | crazy6: try CTRL+ALT+F2 to get to a TTY then sudo service kdm restart .. that should loop you back to the login screen again .. I'm shooting in the dark here so not sure if that will work.. | 20:08 |
| Scunizi | nimrod: you might be better off with the alternate cd install. | 20:09 |
| CryojenX | scunizi: Should I use any particular port or just pull one out of my rear? ;) | 20:09 |
| thopiekar | I thought I is because if the x64 version of kubuntu I use but same here when trying it from a x32 livecd | 20:09 |
| thopiekar | s/I/it/ | 20:09 |
| nimrod | and that is? | 20:09 |
| Scunizi | nimrod: the alternate cd install is available on the download page.. it's a different iso you have to burn.. it's a text based installer and *NOT* a live cd | 20:10 |
| linda_ | hey can someone here help me? I'm having trouble setting up a network share on my home network with NFS | 20:10 |

| linda_ | I want an upload on my kubuntu lucid desktop in which I can write stuff from my kubuntu lucid laptop | 20:11 |

| jmp242 | Has anyone gotten a Sil 3132 chipset to work as a esata with port multiplier with Kubuntu 10.04? | 20:11 |
| thopiekar | can someone help my w/ my dvb-s / kaffeine probelm? | 20:11 |
| RobiX | is public logging in here allowed, or not? | 20:12 |
| thopiekar | *pleaseee :) | 20:12 |
| crazy6 | Scunizi: Yeah, so,I am in a terminal already. restarting KDM doesn't seem tofix the problem. | 20:12 |
| linda_ | if I click network in dolphin I can see both my laptop (shiny) and my desktop (tuxbox) listed, but not my shares | 20:12 |
| nimrod | and how does that work Scunizi? | 20:12 |
| tsimpson | RobiX: this channel is already logged, if you wish to publish logs you need to contact the Ubuntu IRC Council for permission | 20:12 |
| Scunizi | nimrod: like the live cd.. download, burn iso, leave cd in drive and reboot machine.. installer shows up as a text based installer.. you won't see the desktop until after the install is done and you've restarted into your new system.. | 20:13 |
| nimrod | ok | 20:13 |
| nimrod | so i cant mess it up? | 20:13 |
| nimrod | lol | 20:13 |
| tonydark00 | ciao | 20:14 |
| tonydark00 | ci siete? | 20:15 |
| tonydark00 | italiani??? | 20:15 |
| maco | !it | 20:15 |
| ubottu | Vai su #ubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie! (per entrare, scrivi « /join #ubuntu-it » senza virgolette) | 20:15 |
| Scunizi | nimrod: you can just choose the defaults.. however if you're creating a dual boot situation and you already have drive space allocated for ubuntu make sure you point the installer to that space.. you'll need at minimum 2 partitions for ubuntu to install.. 1 at 2 gigs for /swap and the rest for / known as root.. some will create a 3rd partition for users data .. it's called /home and is typically the largest of the 3 partitions.. | 20:15 |
| nimrod | alright | 20:16 |
| Scunizi | crazy6: sorry I'm stuck.. might ask in #ubuntu or #kde | 20:16 |
| jmp242 | Or, anyone have any recommendations for a esata card that supports the sil port multipliers under Linux? | 20:17 |
| Scunizi | linda.. you need to install samba to add a share like that.. hope you have a lot of hair.. I lost some trying to configure it but got it done.. the only problem I now have is when I put data in the share from the machine that is hosting the share, the other (guest) machine can see and read the data but not open or write to it or any sub directories created by the host machine. | 20:19 |
| Scunizi | linda_: so I'm always sudo chmod -R 777 <path to share> to make it read/write/execute for everyone.. | 20:19 |
| linda_ | thanks, i wanted to use NFS because I only have linux computers here, I did not see the point of having samba then | 20:21 |
| linda_ | but maybe I just have to use that again | 20:21 |
| linda_ | :/ | 20:21 |
| CryojenX_ | Ok, this is getting irritating. I changed Apache to a nonstandard port, and still cant get through | 20:22 |
| CryojenX | oops | 20:24 |
| Scunizi | CryojenX: you won't be able to access it from inside the lan unless you use http://localhost:port number | 20:25 |
| CryojenX | Scunizi: ya i'm doing that, I just cant access it from outside still | 20:26 |
| Scunizi | CryojenX: are you remote logged into a machine that is outside your network? | 20:26 |
| CryojenX | no, just going thru my WAN IP | 20:27 |
| Scunizi | CryojenX: lots of routers won't allow you to exit your lan and come back in as they see that as "spoofing" .. it's a security measure.. call a friend to access it.. he'll have to manually type the address ... http://<IP address:portnumber> to do it. | 20:28 |
| linda_ | thanks for your help Scunizi, however, I just got a link to another tutorial on the internet and I have my NFS share working now | 20:29 |
| Scunizi | linda_: ah.. good.. | 20:29 |
| CryojenX | tried it with an outside proxy with no luck | 20:29 |
| linda_ | turns out I had to do sudo exportfs -a after the nfs-kernel-server restart | 20:29 |
| Scunizi | CryojenX: after changing the port number did you restart apache? | 20:30 |
| CryojenX | ya | 20:30 |
| linda_ | for a minute I still wasnt sure if I had it working because the files copied so fast, but apparently NFS is much faster than SMB | 20:30 |
| linda_ | and since I want to transfer quite a number of GB :P | 20:30 |
| Scunizi | CryojenX: are you port forwarding the port to your machine in the Router? | 20:30 |
| CryojenX | Netstat says it's listening on the right port | 20:31 |
| CryojenX | yup | 20:31 |
| Scunizi | CryojenX: pm? | 20:31 |
| CryojenX | pm? | 20:31 |
| Scunizi | CryojenX: private message..? we can open a private message window | 20:31 |
| CryojenX | oops sorry, been a long time since i've done IRC | 20:31 |
| kaddi | hi, since I upgraded to lucid I find that sometimes a window that is moving out on the left side of my screen reappears on the right side. Is that a feature? And if so how can I use it actively not only by accident? | 20:35 |
| jseabold | I need to install the java-plugin on a computer without an internet connection but can't find the .deb files for kubuntu karma. Anyone have a link? | 20:40 |
| jseabold | *karmic | 20:40 |
| Scunizi | jseabold: packages.ubuntu.com I think | 20:48 |
| jseabold | Scunizi: Thanks, yeah I'm browsing around in there now trying to figure out which ones I need... | 20:49 |
| Scunizi | jseabold: sun-java-jre and sun-java-plugin I think | 20:49 |
| jseabold | Scunizi: Thanks! I'll give it a go. I think it needs to be java6 though. | 20:50 |
| Scunizi | yea | 20:50 |
| Erod | Java is in the partner repository nowadays. | 20:51 |
| jseabold | I think I can just install the old one from packages.ubuntu then update? I need it to access Cisco Clean Access agent at my university... | 20:53 |
| Erod | Ah yes, that was Karmic? It should be there then alright, they changed it for Lucid. | 20:53 |
| jseabold | Yeah, I'm on Karmic. Once I can get online I can update ;) | 20:54 |

| miazgator | hi, I've got a problem with Konqueror not being able to open facebook | 22:54 |
| miazgator | it looks like facebook thinks I am viewing from a mobile phone | 22:55 |
| miazgator | where can I upload a screen shot? | 22:55 |
| crooks3o6 | imgur.com | 22:59 |
| miazgator | anybody there? | 22:59 |
| crooks3o6 | Why not use a different browser? | 23:00 |
| crooks3o6 | Konqueror isn't exactly the best browser.. quite a few sites don't support it properly e.g facebook | 23:00 |
| miazgator | I was visiting facebook like yesterday | 23:01 |
| miazgator | and Konqueror is ONLY browser which works with flashplayer perfectly | 23:01 |
| crooks3o6 | flash seems to work fine in firefox.. | 23:02 |
| miazgator | Chromium and Firefox play fine in fullscreen until I try hovering over buttons too fast or mess with volume | 23:02 |
| miazgator | (in youtube) | 23:02 |
| miazgator | no it doesn't crooks3o6 | 23:02 |
| miazgator | not for me | 23:02 |
| miazgator | for me only Konqueror has superior flash performance | 23:03 |
| miazgator | all the rest is laggy in fullscreen while doing anything with buttons | 23:03 |
| crooks3o6 | so what happens when you go to www.facebook.com? It reroutes you to m.facebook.com? | 23:03 |
| miazgator | ye | 23:04 |
| miazgator | that's ridiculous | 23:04 |
| crooks3o6 | hmm it does the same thing for me | 23:04 |
| crooks3o6 | maybe there's a way to have konqueror report a different browser type? | 23:05 |
| crooks3o6 | settings > configure konqueror > browser identification > uncheck send identification | 23:06 |

| crooks3o6 | no prob | 23:09 |
| crooks3o6 | That should fix most other buggy sites as well | 23:09 |
| crooks3o6 | konqueor isn't a common browser so most people don't have it coded into their sites | 23:09 |
| crazy7 | I'm starting to think that I should keep a clean install on a USB stick somewhere, so I can just slam it back onto the system quickly, considering how often I am experiencing failures | 23:12 |
| miazgator | I wish I could use Konqueror in Gnome without installing mass dependancies | 23:16 |
| miazgator | no other browser gives me so good flash support | 23:17 |
| slow-motion | n8 | 23:17 |
| miazgator | all the rest is laggy on fullscreen controls for some reason, just not Konqueror | 23:17 |
| miazgator | there must be somekind of a secret in this | 23:17 |
| crazy7 | how do I regenerate initrd? | 23:44 |
| Torch | crazy7: mkinitramfs iirc | 23:50 |
| crazy7 | Torch: any way to do it if my system won't boot? that's what I beleive the problem is, that fglrx installer messed up my initrd | 23:51 |
| Torch | crazy7: that sounds unlikely | 23:51 |
| crazy7 | Torch: well, after I install it, my system now hangs after fsck reports that my root fs is clean | 23:52 |
| crazy7 | well, not hangs... sits there... it'll respond to a ctrl+alt+del | 23:52 |
| Torch | crazy7: if it doesn't boot to X, boot it with init=/bin/bash and fix it from there | 23:52 |
| crazy7 | Torch: the init=/bin/bash goes in instead of the initrd line, or at the end of the kernel line? | 23:53 |
| Torch | crazy7: at the end of the kernel line | 23:53 |
| crazy7 | Torch: hrm, ok, it shows me a little bit of dmesg output... "Running /scripts/init-bottom", then some messages about USB configuration for a device, the "root@(none):/#" prompt , but then I can't type anything | 23:55 |
| Torch | crazy7: can't type or is it not being echoed? blindly type a "find /" <return> and see if the disk is busy then. | 23:57 |
