[00:45] I will try firefox [00:47] In firefox there is no sound opening/closing tabs, but there is sound when trying to close, looks like some king of sound theme. I hate tehn since windows 95.

[01:21] everything apears and aren't mute [01:21] Are you tryiing to play some music then? [01:22] yeah, but it's strange : with amarok i can't get any sound, same for firefox&konqueror if i try a youtube vidéo, but "Dragon PLayer" works perfectly [01:23] Then its not a sound problem, it is a app problem. [01:23] oh, dragon player don't play sound anymore, sweet. [01:23] In kde systemseetings try to change your sound settings [01:24] hehe [01:25] what to change ? [01:25] sharkman: I've had the same issue, but seems to be a driver version matter for my player, in this case Xine-ui, whenever I loaded, and play a dvd, it plays fine and all, however, any app started after xine-ui loaded, has sound issues, I simply close it, restart the app and works :) [01:26] when i try to test my soundcart, it doesn't work, i don't heard anything [01:26] In kde systemseetings computer administration, multimedia, try to use pulseaudio in everything [01:26] Typos_King: i restarted kubuntu 4 times, re-installed all drivers, it doesn't work.. [01:27] so, you have no sound at all? [01:27] no sound at all yeah [01:28] sometimes "dragon player" works but 5mn laters, nothing work [01:29] ... I see [01:30] if i choose the dual boot option for installing ubuntu, will i loose everything on my hard drive? [01:30] then all I can think of is drivers...., what about installing the linux-backport-modules? maybe there's a fix for your hardware [01:35] im going to be crazy, now amarok pley my music on my headset, and konquor on my computer [01:42] my firefox refuse to open, because that "firefox is already running" how to stop the first session ? [01:47] killall firefox? [01:48] i just wana stop firefox process without having to restart my computer [01:48] (on windows i usually use ctrl+alt+suppr) [01:48] but it's my first time on linux.. [01:49] sharkman: you can open a terminal [01:49] and type pkill firefox [01:49] pkill = process kill [01:49] works, thank you ! [01:49] how do I remove OpenOffice.org? [01:50] I rather like Koffice much better [01:51] like even though its old I like it better than OOo [02:10] hi [02:10] i've just pressed the "minimize" button of a 10.4 installation window - now it's gone - how to get it back? :-) [02:10] alt-tab says "no windows" [02:12] ah - got it. started a plasm-desktop from tty1 === zoom is now known as Guest24173 [02:29] Very quiet in here! [02:33] I have an IBM T30 laptop with Kubuntu loaded....problem is the default display driver is all messed up (bar at bottom of screen is all scrambled). Is there a way to force it to redetect the video, or better yet a shortcut key combo to open the web browser so I can download the correct ATI driver? I cant see anything (since the bar is screwed up) to open the browser. [02:36] Всем привет === Barridus_ is now known as Barridus [03:00] salve [03:00] I just tried puppy linux over the weekend and it was great for browsing the web, except I had trouble with some of my wireless NIC [03:01] scusate c'è qualcuno che parla italiano? [03:01] are there any other Linux versions similar to it that are just as cool? [03:29] anyone else here running 10.04 with qemu-kvm and ksm disabled? [03:51] hi -- I'm trying to get the compose key to work with Konversation. this app is the one app I use from kde :) I followed the isntructions here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ComposeKey -- except not the kde system settings part because I dont have the whole kde wm installed. [03:51] now not only do I not get the compose key, but my dead keys aren't dead any more :P ´a would have come out as á in gedit [03:54] only in konversation is this the problem, the configuration worked for every other app on my system === rackIT is now known as rackIT_AFK [04:13] * ZachK_ waves [04:40] what are some media players that play webm?

[04:44] yeah [04:44] the settings in System Settings->Multimedia [04:45] Zerb_Riss: are you trying to make it be a constant effect for lack of a better word? [04:45] ZachK_: their repos haven't been up to date since intrepid, :[ [04:45] ok [04:45] no, I just want all of my applications to use my preferred sound device [04:45] instead of whichever one it feels like using [04:45] :) [04:45] Zerb_Riss: wouldn't that be a sound settings option? [04:46] that's what is in System Settings->Multimedia [04:46] Zerb_Riss: I'm sorry but I don't use KDE so much as Gnome [04:46] preferred sound device [04:46] oh [04:46] Zerb_Riss: but I can research it for ya [04:46] that's why im here [04:47] interesting [04:47] there is a vlc backend for phonon [04:48] try that then === gnac_ is now known as gnac [05:28] kl;;;][[]2]'[l [05:44] Hello [05:44] odhinn: HI! [05:45] can anyone tell me how to remove the Gnome meta-package from an installation of Ubuntu 10.04 after installing KDE? [05:46] odhinn: sudo apt-get remove ubuntu-desktop [05:46] DarthFrog: i don't think so..you sure? [05:46] that removes very little....tried it [05:46] ZachK_: It will remove the meta package, as he asked. [05:47] It won't actually do anything, though. :-) [05:47] hence my dilemma [05:47] would it just be easier to backup and do a fresh install of Kubuntu? [05:47] odhinn: Do you want to remove GNOME itself? The meta package is just a dependency installer. [05:47] odhinn: do you prefer Kubuntu instead of Ubuntu? [05:48] yes, to both questions [05:48] odhinn: then I'd just backup your pertinent data and then do an Install of Kubuntu itself if that's what you like [05:48] http://superuser.com/questions/28781/how-to-remove-the-ubuntu-gnome-desktop-after-making-the-switch-to-kde [05:48] that way you just have the Kubuntu stuff... [05:49] but that's me [05:49] Aha, this is it: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/purekde [05:50] It's specifically for Lucid. [05:50] lol....I tried that psychocats one, DarthFrog, but it drops an error and stops on me everytime.... [05:50] What error? [05:51] I think I'll just wait a few days, backup, and do a fresh Kubuntu install... [05:51] gimme a few seconds, and I'll grab the error message for ya [05:52] do you want it pasted in here, or privately, DarthFrog? [05:53] If it's short, just paste it here. [05:53] it's a bit lengthy [05:53] Pastebin [05:54] ok, but you'll have to tell me how to use it, I haven't figured it out yet [05:54] !pastebin [05:54] For posting multi-line texts into the channel, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use http://tinyurl.com/imagebin | !pastebinit to paste directly from command line | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic.

[05:57] is that all that is wrong? [05:58] No. [05:58] sudo apt-get -f install [05:58] Then do the remove again. [05:58] Or do it first. [05:59] ok...thank you very much [05:59] Have fun., [06:00] I'll try....the worst day of wrestling with Linux is better than the best day of pulling one's hair out over Winblows! === Enzoplex is now known as Enzoplex_ === Enzoplex_ is now known as Enzoplex__ === Enzoplex__ is now known as Enzoplex [06:25] hey all :) [06:44] i need help with a printer. computer claims it can't see it?!

What is the best method for viewing the mounted ISO? Kaffeine used to play the ISO with menus and all, but it hasn't recently. [07:13] Enzoplex: hmm [07:14] !iso [07:14] To mount an ISO disc image, type « sudo mount -o loop » - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning. [07:14] Enzoplex: Have you ever looked at Mythbunut (MythTV)? It will play ISOs. [07:14] For the time being, it plays on my server itself. I will setup a client later that will remote mount via sshfs [07:14] I have a good question regarding the legality of certain software messages [07:15] !ask [07:15] Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [07:15] Also, AcetonISO will mount and play ISOs. [07:16] RandPaul: you were kicked from #ubuntu for your racist remarks - i hope you won't continue them here [07:16] DarthFrog: I have thought about using MythTV, but I am just running something internal to my own home. [07:17] moetunes: hey man..you don't have to bring stuff like that up unless it happens again [07:17] k [07:17] Enzoplex: I don't see how that's an argument against MythTV. [07:17] moetunes: nice to meet ya btw [07:18] heh hello ZachK_ :] [07:19] DarthFrog: It's not. I am using Kubuntu for the server so I can have an interface to create the ISOs of the movies that I buy. [07:19] DarthFrog: I'm actually on the server right now [07:38] does anyone know of any ffmpeg guides that go into detail explaining each option? [07:39] bawww: I'd like that that too - haven't been able to find anything so far [07:40] moetunes: glad i'm not the only one [07:40] heh :] [07:43] after a few years playing with it i use the defaults mostly except for gop -dc and -bf whatever they are bawww [07:44] bawww: besides "man ffmpeg"? [07:44] info ffmpeg :-) [07:45] neither explain the options available - they only list them... [07:45] moetunes: yeah [07:45] moetunes: we need better documentation [07:46] Ah, you want "The Dummy's Guide To ffmpeg". :-) [07:46] bawww: some documentation on the options would make using it so much more beneficial imo [07:47] quote - -me method set motion estimation method to method. Available methods are (from lower to best quality): [07:48] what are the methods? [07:48] DarthFrog: a more detailed guide/book is very much needed [07:48] DarthFrog: some of the options just says it's the option.... [07:51] Can I rebrand kubuntu [07:51] as Mexisoft [07:51] sell it in Mexico [07:51] but have a disclaimer saying that negroes de mierda can't use it or receive support? [07:51] Would you consider that ethical? [07:51] yes [07:51] and not tell people that it is linux [07:51] most in mexico have never seen linux [07:52] it would come preloaded with amsn [07:52] adobe and such [07:52] so that [07:52] RandPaul: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [07:52] I don't think the rest of us would consider it to be ethical. [07:52] why not? [07:52] it would expose people to linux [07:53] tons of people down here can't update their windows effectively [07:53] because of the genuine advantage thing......... give them a "Mexican OS" [07:53] and only 15 bucks, they have genuine software [07:53] RandPaul: it goes against the grain of what Ubuntu is [07:53] when it catches on [07:53] then come out and admit that it is linux, and now they know how to use it [07:54] most here have never seen linux, but if you mention it they say they have hear dthat it is hard to use [07:54] so this is to schnooker people into using it and getting cash at the same time [07:54] DarthFrog: I was checking out some videos on YouTube for the usage and functionality for Mythbuntu... such disappointing results. [07:55] DarthFrog: Good thing I'm not basing them off those video results. [07:55] especially in a nation where most people don't use the computer for much else [07:55] than myspace facebook or chat [07:55] or downloading songs [07:56] RandPaul: it's not what ubuntu is about [07:56] you can sell Ubuntu or Kubuntu, but you also must make the source code available to anyone on request [07:56] it's supposed to be free... [07:56] I would change it to "MexiSoft" [07:56] RandPaul: do you have a kubuntu support issue or solution? [07:56] of course it would be available [07:56] but most people here don't know about opensource [07:56] yes [07:56] RandPaul: ok then ask it [07:56] this is ot [07:57] RandPaul: don't go on and on about something that we wouldn't support [07:58] I would put on the login this disclaimer "El uso de este sistema operativo por los negros es estrictamente prohibido.

[08:02] ffmpeg [08:02] and how in the world are you supposed to figure out how to use it [08:02] discuss [08:03] man the vp8 is pretty awesome codec for webm [08:03] it looks the same as h264 [08:03] yeh its pretty decent [08:04] just need people to adopt a free(r) format now [08:04] looks like web video will be pretty open [08:04] yeh hopefully, still a long ways to go though [08:04] the whole vp8 in flash should be good though [08:05] will at least let you encode once and use flash as a fall back [08:05] yeah, that should help in the transition [08:05] remember, but we want to get rid of flash [08:05] well browsers like IE6-8 aren't going away any time soon and they wont' ever support (x)html [08:05] 5 [08:07] mase_wk: damn those users [08:08] i think firefox is gonna gobble up more market share [08:08] hopefully [08:09] i don't think choice is a bad thing but having a free browser supporting the latest open standards does help [08:09] since the majority of the browsers are going with it, the future is set [08:09] well yeh, but the majority of browsers still unfortunately doesn't mean a majority of the users. [08:10] there are still alot of people running firefox 3 and IE (all variants ) [08:10] lol let them become disconnected! [08:10] well that is an option but not one i think will be widely implemented [08:10] although we have now dropped support for IE 6' [08:11] doesn't sites like youtube give you a no IE 6 message already? [08:11] most of xhtml can be rendered quite well as html, as long as you don't include the part [08:12] maybe the technicians and developers can get together to start a browser switching campaign for clueless IE 6 users [08:12] it's up to MS to maintain their broken browsers, no one else can do anything about it [08:12] tsimpson: not really, if you send the correct xhtml+xml IE 6 will not render it as html [08:13] mase_wk: but if you send it as text/html, it should [08:13] you can send it without the correct headers, but then its technically not xhtml [08:13] with xhtml 1.0 you can send it as html anyway, not 1.1 [08:14] the more correct way to do it , is to use xslt to transform to sgml to those that request tag soup [08:14] as long as you have the right doctype and possibly a meta tag, it should work [08:14] regardless, its still not going to support the video element [08:15] well sucks to use IE [08:15] indeed [08:22] is handbrake a GTK application ? [08:23] i believe so [08:23] hi, my kubuntu does not recognize my pendrive. any idea? http://paste.ubuntu.com/438495/ [08:23] it will run fine under kubuntu though [08:23] thanks in advance [08:24] Elec2010: does that usb port function correctly with other devices ? [08:24] usually even if its not supported /recognised its at least able to enumerate the device [08:30] yes, it was formatted in winxp as fat32 [08:30] maybe i am noob, just installed kubuntu one week ago, i am new to linux [08:33] Elec2010: so what happens if you plug it into a different port ? same thing ? ie plug in the device and open up a konsole and type 'dmesg' [08:33] in theory it should justt be visible in your device monitor [08:33] or in dolphin [08:45] i'm having trouble encoding a raw yuv file into x264 codec with ffmpeg, for some reason i can't set the correct framrate [08:46] is there like a special way to deal with raw files? [08:50] bawww: bottom of man ffmpeg it gives an example of using raw - seen it? [08:50] not with x264 tho sorry bawww [08:51] bawww: using the kubuntu compiled ffmpeg? [08:51] or ubuntu compiled? [08:52] moetunes: i was using the custom ffmpeg, the one you recommended [08:52] it's got the latest vp8 codec libraries [08:52] bawww: I don't recall recommending anything... [08:52] btw kden works with it [08:52] kdenlive* [08:53] moetunes: nm then, wrong person? [08:53] it might have been mase_wk bawww [08:55] bawww: my point was that sometimes ubuntu doesn't compile apps with all options enabled - that might have been the issue - but since you're using a custom ffmpeg it doesn't matter [08:57] moetunes: yeah, i seem to have all the codecs i want enabled [09:17] hi guys [09:20] apparle: hello [09:21] what's up... no activity ...

Thanks [11:22] IIVQ: actually in Ubuntu/Gnome the window manager is compiz. But in kubuntu the window manager is kwin [11:22] ahmad_: put it in /etc/environment [11:23] ahmad_: or add the command 'export' just before 'JAVA_HOME' in your .bashrc [11:23] Deknas: Thanks, I will try it [11:23] ahmad_: or you could change the line in .bashrc to "export JAVA_HOME="/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun"" without the outer quotes [11:23] ah ok, so there's no compiz in kubuntu? [11:23] I prefer JAVA_HOME='...' in /etc/environment [11:23] ahmad_: by the way how did you install java [11:24] IIVQ: you can install compiz if you want [11:24] apparle: I have installed java using apt-get [11:25] ahmad_: which version of kubuntu [11:26] apparle, please no!
