IIVQhello01:13
IIVQI have installed a new kernel as per https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelTeam/MainlineBuilds01:13
IIVQbut now I have deinstalled it01:13
IIVQaccording to the same manual01:14
IIVQbut it still is booting into that kernel01:14
IIVQhow exactly do I boot into my old kernel?01:14
IIVQmy last days of linux were when you had to manually had to edit /etc/grub.conf but that is now non-existend01:15
Speziusually you can choose from different kernel versions in grub before the acutal boot process starts01:15
IIVQand /etc/grub.d is a mess of files01:15
IIVQSpezi, no, not here01:15
IIVQit just picks one (the top, I suppose)01:15
IIVQI'm running quite a fresh 10.04 LTS btw01:15
Speziand there's no way to get a selection for you?01:15
IIVQSpezi, I have no idea how to configure this new version01:16
IIVQof grub01:16
Spezithere must be at least the option to press escape in order to get the grub dialog01:16
IIVQalso, it makes my screen almost illegible, that's why I ask in chat and not research myself01:16
IIVQok01:16
Spezibecause thats also the only way to get into recovery boot mode01:16
Spezii would really be surprised if that wasn'/t possible01:16
IIVQbut where exactly is the grub.conf file you'd edit as a normal user?01:17
Spezierm, it's called menu.lst or something like that01:17
Spezii'll have to look to be sure01:17
Spezishould be /boot/grub/menu.lst01:17
IIVQno such file01:18
bazhangits grub201:18
IIVQah ok01:19
bazhang!grub2 | IIVQ01:19
ubottuIIVQ: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager since Karmic. For more information and troubleshooting on GRUB2 please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub201:19
Speziah, so it sticks with grub when i constantly update ubuntu, but uses grub2 on a fresh install?01:19
Benkinoobyhi, sometimes after logoff, or when shutdown or reboot it get "(process: 307 ): Glib-WARNING ** : getpwuid-r () : failed due to unkown user id (0)" i have seen some forum threads, stating that this bug seems to be quite commen, but until now, i have not found a solution or a bug reoprt. does anyone of you know this bug and maybe a solution?01:19
SpeziBenkinooby: sorry, can'/t help you, but .. great nickname :P01:24
BenkinoobySpezi: thanks01:26
IIVQok01:28
IIVQappearently update-grub just installs whatever it finds in /boot01:28

prowerhello :> anyone else using kdenlive in 10.04? it seems that when you select screen grab for the video source and click record, nothing at all happens01:29
IIVQhello01:30
IIVQthx peoples who just helped me with grub01:31
Spezigive your thanks to bazhang - i didn'/t know about that grub2 stuff, because i'm on an upgraded 10.04 and it seems to keep grub(1) appearently01:32
bukayoSpezi: it should have asked you if you want to keep using grub1 or grub201:33
Speziuh 9.10 is already some time ago :) but why would i update to the newest ubuntu version as soon as it's released and then keep an older version of the bootloader .. well .. maybe it was a fatal brainlag01:34
IzinucsThe notification that comes up if you plug in a usb device does not disappear on it's own if you take no action.. How do I get it to "receed" back to the panel after a certain period of time?01:48

ForgeAusalso note: lots of windows games work under wine, check winehq's appdb for more info on particular titles04:08
dewittwhere is the shutdown and restart in kubuntu 10.0404:12
ForgeAusin the kickoff menu (the K button on the panel down the bottom)04:14
dewittin leave menu it only has logout, lock, switch users and hibernate04:16
ForgeAus(hmmm Lancelot anyone? ... ) of course you could just follow the red icons, and another option is to add the logout/lockout buttons (a plasmoid) to the panel ...04:19
ForgeAusyet another option is to use the shutdown -h now command in terminal04:20
ForgeAusdewitt the logout button is how you shut down, I think...04:21

OceanwatcherAnyone here that can help figuring out a problem with Kontact/Akonadi/MySQL?05:04
dusterli'm having problems with a sata harddisk after a few hours of uptime. the disk starts to make constant loud noises as if i'm copying a lot of small files which i'm obviously not. iotop shows no traffic at all.05:06
moetunesdusterl: it might be getting hot...05:07
scunizidusterl: or going bad05:07
dusterldef. not hot. finger test is negativ :(05:07
moetunesdusterl: try asking in   ##hardware   they might have a clue05:08
dusterlthe disk keeps making noises even when rebooting and entering bios setup05:08
dusterlthx. will try there05:08
Oceanwatchermoetunes: Would you happen to know who to talk to about Kontact problems? The app is freezing after boot. Akonadi reports to be ok, but there are errors in the mysql log and something is definitely not right...05:14
moetunesOceanwatcher: I never use kontact - if noone responds best bet is to ask again in a bit or try to google for an answer05:15
moetunesit takes patcience sometimes...05:16
OceanwatcherI have asked a lot... And posted in forums. Been trying to be patient for a couple of months :-)05:16
OceanwatcherOnly reason I have not gone crazy is that the single apps work, it is just the integrated PIM that freezes.05:17
OceanwatcherSo fortunately, I have been able to read mail :-D05:17
moetunesOceanwatcher: seems you may have a inique prob there - have you changed settings? - might give setting things back todefault a go maybe05:17
OceanwatcherNot really changed any settings. :-)05:18

moetunesIIVQ: sure - it is easier to copy one tho11:19
IIVQyeah but I can't find one while googling11:19

moetunesusf: I've no idea - did you say if you have upgraded the os since it worked11:38
usfeven in this os it worked11:38
usfit works in win7 but not in ubuntu 10.0411:39
moetunesusf: I mean apt-get update && apt-get upgrade not upgrade to new os version11:39
usfi didn't make any update11:40
moetunesusf: ok it is not from a software change then11:41
usfbut it works in windows 711:41
moetunesusf: can you mount it manually to make sure all is ok?11:41
moetuneswith the kubuntu part of things11:42
usfi don't know how11:42
usfhhh11:42
moetunesusf: in konsole do   sudo fdisk -l   and look for the external drive11:43
moetunesyou might have to pick it by file type or system size11:43

usfi cannot identify it11:44

IIVQ1ctrl-alt-F2 let my monitor flash but I didnt' go back to a console again11:45

usfokey11:56
IIVQ1moetunes: I've managed to install the new xorg.conf11:57
moetunesusf: when it is unplugged in konsole do   ls /dev   then plug it in again and do   ls /dev    again  and there hopefully will be a new name in the list11:58
moetunesIIVQ1: with the right resolution?11:58
usfok11:58
IIVQ1moe: no not yet, just plain11:58
usfgonna try it11:58
moetuneskk11:58
IIVQ1so I need to find out how to do that first11:58
IIVQ1strange thing is that if I boot x I get some 1024x768-ish resolution11:58
IIVQ1and if I go into system settings -> display and change it to what I want, it briefly goes to that setting (.5 seconds) immediately jumps back again11:59
moetunesIIVQ1: and what are you hoping for?11:59
IIVQ1not giving the 15 second reset time11:59
IIVQ1moetunes: miracles? :-P11:59
moetunesheh11:59
IIVQ1I just think it's strange that if I go into sys settings -> display it won't store these settings somewhere12:00
moetunesin xorg.conf - section screen - subsection display i have the line12:00
moetunesModes"1280x1024" "1152x864" "1024x768" "800x600"12:00
moetunesIIVQ1: I "think" it is a bug somewhere 'cause X redos the config on every boot without a xorg.conf12:02
IIVQ1moetunes: yes but I have a multiple display configuration12:02
IIVQ1so I need to figure out how to do that12:02
IIVQ1and it's be easy to tell xorg "please dump the modelines you're running on now, so I can put them into my xorg.conf"12:03
IIVQ1but linux shouldn't be too easy12:03
IIVQ1I was quite scared that setting up a printer was easier than in windows12:03
IIVQ1i.e. plug in device, done12:03
moetunesthere's a very good debian wiki on all that X stuff12:04
moetuneshttp://wiki.debian.org/XStrikeForce/HowToRandR1212:04
usfmoetunes: there is no new name in the list12:04

kwtmHi!  How do I add an icon ("widget"?) to the bottom panel so that I can easily start an application, such as firefox?15:07
kwtmI tried Panel Settings > Add a Widget, but it seems to limit me to predefined widgets and not actually launching an application15:08
axiomkwtm: Ha, I am trying to do the same thing, and failing15:08
axiomyou used to be able to drag an icon from your menu to the "quick launch" area, but it doesn't seem to work anymore...15:09
kwtmaxiom: It reminds me of this comedy movie where the spy has a super wristwatch with barometer, electric cables, infrascanners... when asked what time it is, he says, "I dunno.  My watch doesn't tell time."15:09
axiomyeah..15:10
kwtmaxiom: I'm just waiting for someone to tell me that I should use some other fancy app-launching feature instead of clicking on the icon, or something.15:10
axiomHey, this works: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=97337315:11
kwtmI suspect there may be a "quick launch area" that you can create, and then you can drag icons there, but I don't know how to create it.15:11
axiom"Open the Kickoff menu and right click on the application you want, drop down the menu and click on add to panel"15:11
kwtmAwww... CHEEZ!  It says "it doesn't work if you have the menu set to Classic View".15:11
axiomoh15:12
axiomwell, I don't15:12
axiombut maybe you can set it, and then set it back again?15:12
kwtmSo for the minority of people who happen to set menu to Classic View, suddenly they have no idea how to do something and they think they must be crazy or something,.15:12
kwtmaxiom: Of course.  But why don't they make it work for classic view????  :(15:12
axiomGotta move on with the times man ;)15:12
kwtmIt's, like "There's this GREAT feature!  Oh, if you HAPPEN to have 4 overlapping windows, then that feature goes away."  uhh..... why???15:13
IIVQBluesKaj, why would I want that?15:13
BluesKajhey IIVQ you asked about updating your xorg.conf file , well that's the way to do it15:14
kwtmTHere's too many places to right-click on in KDE4.  It's non-intuitive.15:14
IIVQah no BluesKaj, I allready manually created this xorg file15:14
IIVQindeed kwtm15:15
kwtmI finally figured out how to set panel height.  I had to figure out that I click on the cashew on the panel, then go back and click on the taskbar.  (I meant setting taskbar rows, not panel height)15:15
kwtmBut if I do it in the wrong order, and right-click on the taskbar first, then a different menu appears, and I couldn't figure it out.15:15
BluesKajIIVQ, if youn run nvidia , sudo nvidia-xorgconfig command will tune it up15:16
IIVQBluesKaj, It works now15:16
IIVQno need to fix it15:16
IIVQfixing working stuff tends to break stuff15:16
IIVQin my hands at least :-)15:16
IIVQwow my CPU is hot today15:17
IIVQ41.5 degrees15:17
kwtmSometimes I want KDE developers to witness how ordinary people use their desktop and realize it doesn't matter how many fancy semi-translucency features there are if people don't know how to use the system.15:17
kwtmaxiom: Anyway, thanks for the tip.15:17
IIVQkwtm, You must agree with me that konqueror 3.5 was waaaaay more functional than dolphin is?15:17
BluesKajIIVQ, I thought you were looking for a fix...sure seemed like it to me15:17
tux_BluesKaj: the problem is that i have no resolutions defined after running that command15:17
IIVQBluesKaj, thx, no I WAS looking for a fix15:18
IIVQbut I fixed it now15:18
IIVQhmm, that sounded unfriendly, not meant like that15:18
BluesKajtux_, try to find a driver for your monitor , sometimes a very important app which is often overlooked15:18
IIVQthanks for trying to help anyway15:18
tux_BluesKaj: what do u mean?15:19
IIVQI'm going outside. The sun is shining. I shouldn't sit behind the computer :-)15:19
BluesKajIIVQ, ok , np15:19
kwtmIIVQ: Amazingly, I do agree, even though I almost never use konqueror at all and had used Krusader.  But the KDE4 version of Krusader is still configured funny, and at least whenever I need a fallback I know I can always depend on Konqueror.  Not sure why Dolphin came into being.15:19
kwtmI think they made Dolphin just to take a break from names beginning with K.15:20
tux_BluesKaj: i ran earlier versions of kubuntu on this monitor without any driver required15:20
BluesKajtux_, ok, suit yourself15:20
kwtmHas anyone figured out yet how to hide the panel on demand?  Like once in a while I need more room on my monitor, and make the panel slide off the screen temporarily?  Used to be easy in KDE3.15:21
kwtmOh, and how to make the panel opaque instead of 80% transparent?  I need a brain-dead-easy setup for the family computer, and this KDE4 stuff is just overkill.15:21
kwtmI meant 20% transparent and 80% opaque.15:22
axiomkwtm: I don't know if you can hide the panel, but you can make most any app fullscreen by clicking the icon in the left of the title bar15:24
Dyrconakwtm: have you tried right-clicking the in panel and choosing settings?15:24
Dyrconakwtm: or rather, hitting the widget that is by default to the far-right of the panel?15:24
* Dyrcona is not in front of his kubuntu machine atm.15:25
axiomkwtm: Yeah, you can make your panel autohide in the settings15:26
axiomI'm trying to get a multimedia key on my keyboard to launch firefox.  Where would I set that?  (Sytem Settings>Global Keyboard Shortcuts seems like the right place, but I don't see where you can add a new command (?))15:27
kwtmaxiom: I don't want autohide, because any app can crowd out the panel.  I just want to slide it out on demand (when I really need it) because most of the time I need the panel more (I need to constantly see the clock and taskbar or I go nuts)15:28
axiomkwtm: what about fullscreen apps?15:28
kwtmDyrcona: Not sure what you mean by the icon in the left of the title bar.  You mean the WIndows Operations menu?  Btw, I function far better with the Keramik window decorations so I changed it to that.  Is the icon still in the same place?15:29
kwtmaxiom: Well, the one fullscreen app I tried (BZflag) crashes the system.  Don't even get me started on that.  I can't even switch to another terminal with Ctrl-Alt-F1 etc., which I could do before.15:29
axiomBZflag should be fullsceen anyway15:30
kwtmOh, and some numbhead decided to get rid of Ctrl-Alt-Backspace as a way to reboot the X server, so if the thing crashes, I hit the power button.  (Yes, I restored the settings, but why isn't this on by default?  At least set it to a dfferent key, not turn it off altogether)15:30
axiombut you should be able to make any app fullscreen15:30
Dyrconakwtm: Isn't there a widget all the way to the right of the panel (task bar)? (Sorry if i said left earlier, I always confuse right and left.)15:30
kwtmaxiom: What I mean is, I think it's because BZflag is fullscreen taht it crashes the system.  BZflag ran fine before.15:31
Dyrconakwtm: When you mouse over it, it looks like a yellow, blobby crescent.15:31
kwtmDyrcona: Yes, there is a "cashew nut" that gives you lots of options that you don't need, but no "turn on the hide-panel buttons so YOU can choose to hide the panel when YOU want, not when KDE4 calculates that that is what you want"15:31
Dyrconakwtm: may I suggest filing a bug for a new feature?15:32
Ampersandyou and your nasty symbol lookups hehehe15:32
* Ampersand gives Dyrcona some TOAST!15:32
kwtmI guess I can turn on "cashew mode" then turn on autohide then exit "cashew mode" then expand the program to fullscreen to crowd out the panel, then turn on "cashew mode" and turn OFF autohide then turn off "cashew mode".15:32
kwtmDyrcona: Oh, you bet.  I had had a bad experience filing bugs before but now the KDE4 bugs are accumulating thick and fast.15:33
kwtmI've building up a real collection of them.15:33
kwtmI think the main thing is that the developers are too caught up in the new features to see that people just want to continue using a nice, solid, dependable workspace, and only slowly add on more features.15:34
Dyrconakwtm: i'm only trying KDE again after years of being away. I used to be on the KMail team back in the KDE 2.0 days. I had to quit because I ran out of free time in mid-2001.15:36
DyrconaKDE 4.4 has a few rough edges.15:37
kwtmDyrcona: Thank you for your work.  KMail has lots of nice features but the current version has some surprising deficiencies that make me think it's the overall decisionmaking rather than coding that needs to improve.15:37
kwtmDyrcona: I know KDE4 has come a long way.  It's just ... you wonder if they are paying attention to what their priorities should be.  I had a bad experience where one developer said (a few years ago) "Last year survey says 54% of people use KDE3, but this year only 45% of people use KDE3, so developing for KDE3 is a waste of time...."15:39
kwtmAlllllrighty, and now my System Settings program has crashed. :P15:39
Dyrconakwtm: that happened to me on Thursday. started it up again and it worked fine.15:40
allan_how do i find a grub editor now for ver. 10.415:41
Dyrconakwtm: yes, i'm surprised at some of the things that are "missing" in various KDE 4 apps. things that were there in the 2.0 versions.--Konqueror, for instance, is much less useful to me as a browser.15:41
Dyrconaso maybe, i should jump back in?15:41
* Dyrcona wonders which Stephan he should email about getting repo access..... or is everything git these days.15:42
allan_dooes annnyone know where to get a grub editor for this????????15:43
kwtmDyrcona: If you could act on behalf of the ordinary users and provide a calmer, more stable perspective than the exuberant "featuritis" perspective, that would probably be even more valuable than just coding.15:43
kwtmE.g. why the [bleep!] doesn't KMail-KDE4 have a "change font colour" button, and why aren't the text formatting buttons on by default?  (No other way to change font, e.g. bold, other than with buttons that you manually add to the toolbar)15:44
kwtmDyrcona: Or: simple "hide panel" buttons.  I suspect the developers didn't use this much and figure other people didn't either.  Or someone didn't want to write the code for the sliding animation, but I don't care about animation, I just want the panel gone when *I* say  I want it gone. :P15:45
* Dyrcona nods, and thinks we're getting off-topic. :)15:45
prowerhello :> i've noticed that in 10.04 some applications don't seem to behave properly, i'll try my best to explain with an example :> with transmission, if you add a torrent, transmission is started and the torrent is added as normal...but if you click a link for another torrent, _two_ instances of transmission run at once rather than the torrent just being added15:47

xelisterhi, what to install on regular ubuntu lucid to fully use KDE?  because now it seems I do not have some parts of kde.. kde DE starts (from gdm) but I have empty (black) desktop, and no panels (except for alt+f2 application steart) and windows are drawn without decoration16:37
* Ampersand has a large package16:38
hagabakaxelister: check if you have kde-window-manager installed, but maybe kwin is just not started16:40
stabaresyou should install kubuntu-desktop16:43
wizkoderxelister: I did exactely that a few days ago but I have to say it does not really work. Better to install kubuntu and immediately upgrade tp the ppa version16:46
xelisterwizkoder: I found solution,   install kde base etc16:49
xelisterwizkoder:  sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop16:49
xelisterwizkoder:  tell me if it helped.  bbl16:50
wizkoderxelister: My problem was than a lot of small details do not really work. I guess there are different demons doing the jobs on this 2 systems16:50
wizkoderxelister: Apart from that you have 2 programs for every problem. And to delete every program by hand takes longer than installing anew16:51

amichairwhat's soprano-virtuoso? why is it taking up 1.3G of disk space?17:39
Tm_Tamichair: it's your nepomuk data17:40
amichairTm_T: which is?17:40
Tm_Tamichair: virtuoso is the actual database service to store the metadata for nepomuk17:41
amichairTm_T: what's nepomuk?17:41
Tm_Tamichair: the service that manages your file/whatever metadata, ratings and alike17:41
amichairTm_T: assuming I never explicitly used any such service, what's all that data? is it auto-generated indices and such, or actual data?17:43
amichairI just noticed my daily backup just became a bit huger than usual, and found this extra 1.3G17:44

vlt_strog: I think Ubuntu doesn't use xorg.conf anymore by default. But you can create your own.18:41
_strogvlt: ok, and where do i have to configure my resolution to 1280x1024?18:41
shadeslayer_strog: apart from what vlt said,the resolution is genrally set to auto18:42
vlt_strog: You mean else than in xorg.conf?18:42

martijn-2anyone can help me with getting http://soundcloud.com to work with sound under kubuntu?19:18
shadeslayericonmefisto: i didnt know it was a 2TB drive :P19:19
Sonseedoes kde4 NOT support socks5 !!! ???19:19
shadeslayericonmefisto: eagles0513875 recently had a problem with the normal kernel ( which doesn not support GPT ) and could not install Ubuntu on his 2TB HD... im  guessing you had the same problem with partitioning :P19:20
iconmefistoshadeslayer: well lucid 64bit installer partitioned the disk without a problem. after install, I wanted to create more partitions. I should have just tried creating more than 4 primaries19:22
shadeslayerhmm...19:23
eagles0513875shadeslayer: technically the issue wasnt the kernel as all19:23
eagles0513875his issue is different19:23
eagles0513875iconmefisto: you should keep the 4th primary partition and use that as a logical partition19:24
eagles0513875there is a limit of primary partitions on a disk to 4 and i believe up to 16 logical partitions19:24
iconmefistoeagles0513875: GPT allows up to 128 primary partitions!!19:24
eagles0513875ahh iconmefisto didnt know that but for me i was having issues getting kubuntu installed to a 2tb hdd19:25
eagles0513875there has to be something missing in the kernel19:25
eagles0513875and maybe tomorrow or monday ill pull both the server source code and take a look at the differences19:25
iconmefistoeagles0513875: maybe my disk already had a GPT partition table, and yours didn't? gparted can create GPT partition tables19:26
eagles0513875iconmefisto: i still had issues with kubuntu live cd net install and alternat cd19:27
eagles0513875there had to have been something missing in the kernel that ubuntu server kernel has19:27
eagles0513875cuz i managed using ubuntu server to install then installed the kubuntu-desktop meta package19:27
eagles0513875anyway im out for now19:27
oxymoronHelp me, Grub2 cannot bootload Windows 719:30
shadeslayeroxymoron: it does bootload 7...19:31
shadeslayeroxymoron: whats the error??19:31
ikoniaeagles0513875: I thought it was the partition type that was the limiting factor for the 2TB disk ?19:32
oxymoronshadeslayer: Theres no error at all, I highlight Windows 7, select it and then I only got "GRUB "and a blinking "_" on the screen19:32
shadeslayeroxymoron: ok.. and did it boot earlier?19:32
oxymoronshadeslayer: Yes, I have been working forever before. I thinks its the latest .... -6 version that messed up.19:33
oxymoronshadeslayer: Its so freaking ironic because I should boot into Windows to fix another problem and now I cannot boot Windows :D19:33
shadeslayeroxymoron: hehe.. well try : sudo update-grub : and reboot...19:34
shadeslayeroh wait19:34
oxymoronshadeslayer: Already did, dont work19:34
shadeslayeroxymoron: sudo os-prober as well19:34
oxymoronshadeslayer: It finds WIndows 7 in grub.cfg.19:34
oxymoronshadeslayer: What does os-prober do?19:35
shadeslayeroxymoron: it probes for other OS's19:35
shadeslayerand then adds them to grub.cfg.. then re run update-grub19:35
oxymoronshadeslayer: But grub.cfg find it without os-prober before.19:36
oxymoronshadeslayer: Its something else19:36
shadeslayeroxymoron: thats because the entries were added there by os-prober :P19:36
oxymoronshadeslayer: Its like grub freeze and dont kick into the Windows bootloader proerly.19:36
oxymoronshadeslayer: Yes, but the entries were there before running os-prober19:37
shadeslayeroxymoron: hmm...19:37
shadeslayeroxymoron: http://paste.ubuntu.com/437961/  << thats my grub.cfg ( the win 7 part )19:37
shadeslayeroxymoron: well you can reinstall grub...19:37
shadeslayeroxymoron: sudo apt-get --reinstall install grub-common19:38
oxymoronshadeslayer: Yeah good idea :)19:38
iconmefistoif win7 is on sda1, shouldn't it be: set root='(hd0,0)'   ?19:40
oxymoronI think I found out the problem, WIndows and THIS partition is installed on sdc and another one on sda and grub was only installed on sda xD So now I isntalled on both sdc and sda19:41
shadeslayericonmefisto: dunno.. thats the way its been set... i wont mess with it :P19:41
shadeslayeroxymoron: oh...19:41
oxymoronI try it again, hopefully I wont be back in awhile. Thanks shadeslayer for your help, maybe you can help me later on with another problem I have with NTFS drive ...19:42

eagles0513875ikonia: if your still around later ill discuss this futher with you there are actually some updates posted by some people from kernel19:48
oxymoronshadeslayer: Hmm still doesnt work after reinstllation and everything?! :S19:49
shadeslayeroxymoron: weird... maybe #grub can help? but be prepared to wait :(19:50
oxymoronshadeslayer: I dont care about Windows but I need it to run chkdsk or what they call it.19:50

shadeslayeroxymoron: maybe this  : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=147005219:50
iconmefistooxymoron: could it be the ntfs partition is in such bad shape that win7 won't boot, and it's not grub's fault at all?19:51

eagles0513875ikonia: ok if your still around later i can work with you on getting to the cause of it19:52
oxymoroniconmefisto: Uhm I am not sure, I dont think so because I use the partition inside Kubuntu now when I write.19:52
eagles0513875the bug was only updated yesterday ikonia19:52

jedixthat's cylinders22:49
jedixabove it lists the cylinders as 6080122:49
oxymoronjedix: Oh crap, one cylinder to much? :P22:49
jedixso.. the partition table (the thing you're reading with fdisk) is telling the computer there's data beyond the end of the drive22:49
oxymoronOut of bounds, awesome xD22:49
jedixoxymoron: yep :)22:49
oxymoronjedix: How does linux made to mount it anyway? :S22:50

oxymoronjedix: Is it possible to force it into its rightful place someway?22:55
oxymoronjedix: In partition tables when you move partitions you change cylinders.22:55
jedixoxymoron: is this the OS partition?22:56
oxymoronjedix: I guess I could go back to Windows and running some partition application trying to fix it? :P22:56
oxymoronjedix: No its not IS partition, if it was I had removed it directly.22:56
jedixoxymoron: it probably thinks it's fine22:56

jedixtux_: wait a sec.. after installing the driver, did you reboot?23:24
tux_jedix: yes Driver says "nvidia"23:25
tux_jedix: i rebooted couple times23:25
tux_jedix: when kubuntu ist newly installed, there was no xorg.conf23:25
jedixtux_: okay, then just restart kdm from the console now that you have an xorg file23:25
oxymoronjedix: Ah success :P23:25
jedixoxymoron: :)23:25
tux_jedix: i wouldn't be that shure23:26
tux_brb23:26
oxymoronjedix: I just must say HATE HATE HATE NTFS, ISO-9958-1 and Windows! :D23:26
=== Barridus_ is now known as Barridus
jedixoxymoron: yeah, me too23:27
jedixoxymoron: although, that's probably why we are here.23:27
oxymoronjedix: I got pissed off a lot of time in Linux because of that because Linux follow protocols and Microsoft and Windows doesnt.23:28
oxymoronjedix: Sometimes I get angry on developers for GNU/Linux and distros ... because of that :P23:28
* Ampersand tries to piss off oxymoron but fails23:29
oxymoronjedix: If I didnt study or needed MS Office anytime, 3d render apps and Adobe CS 5 so ...23:29
tux_jedix: im back :(23:29
jedixtux_: that frown seems to indicate bad things.23:29
jedixtux_: check /var/log/Xorg.0.log for issues (lines that start with WW or EE)23:30
tux_jedix: yes, i still have 640x480 resolution and not higher23:30
oxymoronjedix: Btw, in partitionmanager it says sdb1, sdc3 and sdd1 doesnt start on a cylinder boundary/border? :S23:30
stephanehow can i find the version of ubuntu23:30
Barridusthe entry in crontab -l "25      18      *       *       *       /home/ryan/rsyncall.sh" does not fire (the script is executable).  anyone have any ideas?23:30
tux_jedix: no  there are no WW or EE tags23:31
jedixstephane: cat /etc/lsb-release23:32
jedixoxymoron: that's a warning23:32
jedixoxymoron: the software that made them is an idiot.23:32
Ampersandhaxe!23:32
tux_jedix: but take a look at this section of the xorg.conf file23:33
tux_http://pastebin.com/aNdbNv6U23:33
oxymoronjedix: Yes, but I hate warnings? :D I hate notices when I programming as well even if theyre not bad errors23:33
tux_there is no resolution23:33
jedixtux_: no there is not.23:33
jedixtux_: what monitor do you have?23:33
tux_i have a philips 190v23:34
tux_i used elder versions of kubuntu with this screen at a resolution of 1280x1024 without a problem23:34
jedixtux_: add this to your Monitor section..23:35
jedixHorizSync    30.0 - 110.023:35
stephanei have a problem whit my update of v10.04 when the pc load the screen is black and dont show nothing23:35
jedixVertRefresh  50.0 - 150.023:35
oxymoronjedix: Hmm now I resize it again and pressed cancel in the process ... hehe :$23:35
jedixerm.23:35
slow-motionn823:35
jedixHorizSync    30.0 - 110.023:35
jedixVertRefresh  50.0 - 150.023:35
jedixthose two.23:35
FloodBotK3jedix: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.23:35
tux_jedix: mine is at HorizSync       28.0 - 33.023:35
jedixtux_: that's your problem.23:35
oxymoronjedix: DO you know what happens when you press cancel in the commit process in Kpartitionmanager?23:36
jedixoxymoron: no idea.23:36
oxymoronjedix: Right now is the status "wait for the process to finish"23:36
jedixtux_: if you have the manual, it should tell you the right numbers.23:36
oxymoronjedix: I did it because it moved the partition to the right and then resize instead of ONLY resize xD23:36
jedixtux_: those are numbers I found online23:36
oxymoronjedix: Just resize take seconds, moving the data sideways does not xD23:37
tux_ah ok23:37
tux_ill restart kdm then23:37
jedixtux_: I found anohter one:  "Philips 190V" HorizSync 30.0 - 83.0 VertRefresh 56.0 - 76.023:37
jedixwait23:37
jedixlet's doublecheck the settings.23:37
tux_ok23:37
oxymoronjedix: Btw one tip for Kubuntu, when press ctrl+alt+delete make it possible do anywhere and then make it possible to restart xserver and system activities from that popup window and not only logging out and restart computer.23:39
jedixtux_: it would be safer to try and comment those lines out and see if it works.. it should fall back to autodetect23:39
tux_comment all of them out?23:39
jedixoxymoron: I'm not a kubuntu dev, but that's a pretty neat idea.23:39
jedixtux_: the HorizSync and VertRefresh lines, yes.23:39
stephaneplease i need help23:40
jedixstephane: sorry, I have to go soon.23:40
tux_jedix: so i comment both horizontal and vertical out?23:40
jedixtux_: yeah23:40
tux_kk23:40
vinnie_jedix: when i try to install kubuntu it detects my two hard drives backwards. is that going to affect my other distros if i go ahead and install?23:40
oxymoronjedix: I think that would save people a lot of time ... before I hade to just force boot computer if something frooze. ctrl+alt+del should have highest priority and freeze everything else if it have to.23:40
jedixvinnie_: it shouldn't23:41
tux_jedix: brb, wish me luck23:41
vinnie_jedix: why does kubuntu do that?23:42
jedixvinnie_: is your other distro really old?23:42
vinnie_jedix: no.. its mint 8 kde ce23:42
vinnie_jedix: its based on 9.1023:43
vinnie_jedix: does kubuntu use uuid in fstab?23:43
jedixvinnie_: it can (and does by default)23:43
tux_jedix: ok :) now i just have to set the resolution to 1280x102423:44
jedixvinnie_: I know the order was changed in some devices based on the kernel version a while back23:44
vinnie_hmmm?23:44
vinnie_ic23:44
vinnie_well im gonna go give it a try.. ty23:44
jedixI think it had to do with pci id's or something, not sure.. but that was ages ago23:44
oxymoronjedix: Damn it must go back and restore again in Windows :D I fucked up partition and make data raw and not formatted partition NTFS ...23:44
jedixoxymoron: good luck23:45
oxymoronjedix: Seems like someone has to fix a smart algoritm for partition tables as this piece of shit sucks, NEVER ever works and its not comfortable and efficient at all.23:45
oxymoronjedix: Thanks23:45
oxymoronbtw I have rebooted like 50 times now today, kind of tired see the freaking boot process :D23:46
jedixhaha23:46
tux_jedix: i just need to get the resolution to 1280x102423:46
stephanei need help: i update for ubuntu 10.04 and i reboot my screen is black noting appen... what to do23:46
jedixtux_: system settings > display23:46
oxymoronjedix: Just to remove PATA controller thing would be a relief and fast up the boot a little ...23:46
tux_jedix: jep i did that23:46
jedixtux_: and?23:47
tux_stephane: press ctrl+alt+f1 do u get a commandline23:47
oxymoronjedix: I am going to buy a SATA DVD/Blueray burner just because of that ... no not only because of that but its one important factor23:47
stephaneno23:47
tux_jedix: that resolution is not present23:47
tux_!?23:47
jedixtux_: what is?23:47
tux_jedix: 1024x76823:48
jedixtux_: okay, then those horizontal refresh/etc are being detecting incorrectly23:48
amichair_stephane: I had the same problem, fixed by reinstalling plasma-desktop and/or kdebase-workspace (assuming you pass the login screen ok - otherwise it's a different problem)23:48
jedixtux_: check the back of your monitor for them.23:48
tux_ok will do23:48
jedixstephane: do you get the boot screen?23:49
stephaneno i get noting23:49
stephanei have to press shut down button23:50
=== desti_T2 is now known as desti
jedixstephane: well it sounds like a grub2 issue.. try reinstalling grub2 by using the kubuntu install cd as a rescue cd.23:51
jedixstephane: also, you may want to look up the slow boot up issue.. some people experienced waiting 20-30 minutes for grub.  it's fixed in a new version of grub though23:51
jedixstephane: the package is called grub-pc23:52
tux_jedix: here it says Max Sync Rate (V x H) 76 Hz x 83kHz23:52
tux_http://www.ciao.co.uk/Productinformation/Philips_190V7FB__668088323:52
stephaneok i try all dat and if i dont come back is good news thank all of you23:53
amichair_stephane: good luck :-)23:53
Empty_foohow can I turn off the nag to update to 10.04 it's getting annoying...23:54
tux_jedix: so it would be HorizSync    30.0 - 83.0?23:55
tux_jedix: VertRefresh     43.0 - 72.0?23:56
tux_jedix: just need the confirmation of an expert23:56
tux_:)23:56
