[00:01] not that I'm aware of [00:01] my pannel is all messed up how can i fix my default pannel? the cloc is streched and everything is scrunched in the left cornner [00:02] RadSurfer: can you do "lspci" from a console and paste the results on the paste.ubuntu.com for me? === jhutchins_lt2 is now known as jhutchins_lt [00:03] that's without the quotes, of course [00:04] I'm trying to run audacity, seems it likes to reboot when its trying to do too much w/audacity running :( I was expecting better. [00:07] how can i restore the default pannel? [00:07] i cant even drag the clock to a normal size [00:07] lspci --> nVidia NV5M64 RivaTNT2 Model 64 Rev 15 <--- lspci [00:07] ok... [00:07] Also, this system only has 512mb RAM, is that enuff? [00:14] So does anyone understand why rebooting looses my Display resolution settings? [00:17] zus: Best I could find was http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1469243&page=1 [00:18] RadSurfer: take a look at this and see if it helps at all [00:18] http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-390979.html [00:19] odhinn, thank you [00:19] zus: np, hope it helps [00:19] Manually tweaking xorg.conf ? why didn't I think of that! [00:20] "nvidia-settings didn't save your settings because you should have launched it with "sudo"; sudo nvidia-settings" [00:20] I take it that was for nVidia specific driver interface [00:20] that's what I was referring to [00:20] odhinn, kinda, after stepping away for a minute, it dawned on me i have ff open and it wasnt in the tray.... [00:20] ahh [00:21] that would make sense, zus [00:21] Hey, I'm just trying to help since no one else is... [00:23] What is the Display configuration application name in kubuntu? I'll try running it as sudo... that was it has permissions to save settings! [00:28] Don't know, RadSurfer, can't find it either [00:30] did find this tho: https://wiki.kubuntu.org/X/Config/Resolution [00:34] "Note that changes you make using xrandr only last through the current session." [00:36] sorry, didn't notice that, I'm tapped out [00:36] Is there a default app in 10.04 for doing RDP or VNC connections? === keffie_jayx_ is now known as keffie_jayx === pinkrobotking is now known as apachelogger === peter_ is now known as Guest10915 [01:23] KRDC is the answer for anyone looking [01:27] Ok. I'm official on my newly install Kubuntu 10.4 now [01:28] What was that special command for fetching gcc build-essentials again? [01:30] sudo aptitude install build-essential [01:35] 15 pkgs to install 3 to update "fakeroot" looks suspicious! hehe [01:36] .. [01:36] if it ain't broken, why fix it? [01:36] gcc is required for a varity of reasons. [01:37] DOES anyone know why kubuntu is not SAVING my display resolution settings? [01:37] I tried gsku krandtray, but that doesn't work either [01:38] it accepts I have the modes; you'd think it would SAVE them! [01:39] gcc,, kubuntu already has it [01:40] RadSurfer2: I assume you will need to edit xorg.conf [01:40] then why does it say 15 pkgs needed! [01:40] for the gcc installation? [01:40] gcc is not necessarily a proper build environment; its just bare-essentials [01:41] gcc alone that is. that are automation tools, etc [01:41] .. well [01:41] if it says it needs it, then do so :P [01:42] kubuntu has some similarity with Sidux...fortunately. I wonder how far that similarity goes :-) [01:42] Sidux is a bit harder to install though === jarrett is now known as vegeta [02:08] IS THERE a way to find out if this motherboard is 32 or 64 bit? That would be a useful terminal command to keep handy :) [02:08] http://mashpotatoe.mybrute.com [02:09] vegeta: pls don't post links without a comment mate [02:11] I know there has to be some way to get CPU info! [02:12] RadSurfer: it is not the mobo that determines that but the cpu [02:12] RadSurfer2: it is not the mobo that determines that but the cpu [02:12] A mb not optimized for 64-bit cpu just dropped in? oh dear me. [02:12] still, there must be a way to query about da CPU [02:14] RadSurfer2: if you don't have more than 4gb mem and don't do math intensive computations then 64bit isn't necessary atm imo [02:14] try sudo lshw [02:15] ok [02:15] http://mashpotatoe.mybrute.com i need some pupils please [02:16] that dumped a lot of info :-) [02:16] pupils? [02:16] just look at the web site and youll see [02:17] RadSurfer2: from that you can google the mobo, cpu etc to find the capabilities thety have [02:20] it reports 32-bits, which is what I wanted to confirm. [02:20] k :] [02:20] right now my only issue is getting this clunker to remember my display screen resolution! [02:21] the 32bit/64 bit thing is more mem related then anything else atm afaik [02:21] kubuntu doesn't want to "lock" the screen res between boots. [02:21] How well would kubuntu 32-bit run on a 64-bit system? [02:21] using nvidia? [02:21] yup TNT2 evidently [02:21] just fine [02:22] that's an old card [02:22] do you have an xorg.conf? [02:26] RadSurfer2: if you have 64-bit hw run 64-bit os [02:26] " it reports 32-bits, which is what I wanted to confirm." [02:27] /etc/xorg ? [02:27] /etc/X11/xorg.conf [02:27] right [02:27] :] [02:36] I just tried to use my apache server for the first time since upgradeing to 10.04 and it's not parsing php files - just tries to let me download them - what do I need to do to fix this? [02:37] verify php proper is installed? [02:37] Walzmyn: there is #php [02:38] or dpkg -l | grep php [02:38] well_laid_lawn: yeah, but 1) there's never anybody there, 2) I'll bet this is a ubuntu specific thing [02:38] also, do a visual inspection of the apache config file [02:38] make sure all is coshure in there [02:39] I know in certain other distro's, it seems to work right out of da box (apache/php/etc) [02:39] doesn't ubuntu actually have a "server edition"? [02:39] in the ubuntus there's [02:40] !lamp [02:40] LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+) [02:40] RadSurfer2: it's always worked out of the box for me, it's just goofed since the upgarde [02:40] Okie. [02:40] RadSurfer2: and I wouldn't know what I was looking at in the apache config file [02:40] Playing with a brand new install here tonight. [02:40] Walzmyn: sometimes the upgrades do miss some stuff [02:40] * Walzmyn nods [02:40] It pays to learn about that apache config file. [02:41] like that ugly purple startup screen i'm stuck with? [02:41] try sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade &7 sudo apt-get dist-upgrade [02:41] RadSurfer2: it might, but all I want is a testbed for wordpress and the like. Someone else is going to run the real one online [02:41] try sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade [02:41] well_laid_lawn: yeah, I'm fully updated [02:42] Uhmmm....... [02:42] shouldn't one be at da proper run level for doing dist-upgradE? [02:42] doing an upgrade in "normal" run level was never recommended [02:42] Walzmyn: tose three commands in order will bring in any packeges missed during the os upgrade [02:43] which sounds like the issue here [02:43] well_laid_lawn: I've checked, I'm fully updated [02:44] Walzmyn: it is your system... [02:44] I bet it's whatever line in apache.conf tells it to send php files to the php engine instead of the browser [02:44] I *SO* do not wanna play with that conf file [02:45] if you didn't change that file it should still work unless... [02:46] I don't remember if i told it to keep mine or use the maintainer's - and there's no mention of php in it [02:47] Walzmyn: time to take it to #php [02:47] #php is locked, looks like a bot hit. I'ma google it [02:48] you need to be registered [02:48] it is always a struggle with illiterate people [02:54] up [02:54] hello, i am using kubuntu, when i set the screen resolution in Kmenu -> Application -> Screem resize & contate it works, but when i turn off and i turn on it doesn't work anymore, it retrieves the old settings. [02:55] tau: it seems you need a xorg.conf file to set your preferred res on boot as it is done from scratch each boot now [02:56] SAME problem I am having :-) [02:57] well_laid_lawn: humm, what is the natural xorg.conf's directory ? [02:57] read the log file for X - /var/log/Xorg.0.log [02:57] well_laid_lawn: sure, so, i copy it from there and do i put ? [02:57] tau: you need to make one - /etc/X11/xorg.conf [02:58] well_laid_lawn: sure, thank u. [02:58] tau: the log will tell why it is using the res it is [02:58] don't copy the log to that file tau [02:59] well_laid_lawn: i tried sudo gedit /var/log/Xorg.0.log [03:00] well_laid_lawn: well, i am new in linux, i don't know what to do either. [03:00] if you did not know, you can keep a "root user shell" open by using ---> sudo -i [03:01] this creates an interactive shell with root priviledges, long enough for you to do stuff. just type 'exit' to exit. [03:01] sure easier than sudo-ing each statement! [03:01] tau: k - what is the vid card pls - I'll google for an xorg.conf for you - lspci | grep VGA in konsole will tell [03:01] sure, well_laid_lawn thak you very much.

[04:48] tau: apart from what i suggested earlier no sorry [04:48] well_laid_lawn: sure. [04:49] tau: you obviously didn't make the xorg.conf file as I suggested...

[08:39] tau: gparted always works afaik - what happened?

[14:22] amichair: not really no, I don't know much about dbus [14:22] I have suspicion it's related to nepomuk/strigi or one of those, so I disabled them, but dbus remained bloated. Maybe after a restart it'll go away. [14:22] amichair: I have nepomuk and strigi active and still... [14:27] Tm_T: I noticed they were simultaniously active while strigi was indexing, so there might be a correlation. I guess I'll never know. [14:28] At least I hope I'll never know :-) [14:33] amichair: sure, strigi & stuff uses dbus, just like a lot of other things [14:33] why is libboost-dev a blocked update for me?

[15:46] Its not a major thing once you know where the authentication dialogue has gone ;) [15:46] But its not a great usability feature ;) [15:47] alakoo where can i get WINE in kubuntu [15:48] jorge sudo apt-get install wine ;) [15:48] Hmmm, I seem to have lost most of my icons, only the GNOME ones are appearing. [15:49] Gerwin try reapplying your icon settings in systemsettings, it seems to get screwed up now and then [15:50] nerdy_kid: There doesn't appear to be such a thing [15:50] nerdy_kid is my first time using kubuntu i dont no exacly [15:52] jorge oh ok, open a terminal (click the K icon in the bottom left) and type "konsole" in the search box. then type "sudo apt-get install wine" (without quotes) in the terminal, type your password (you wont be able to see it that is normal) and hit enter. When it is done you should have a "wine" folder in applications in your menu. [15:52] Gerwin systemsettings/appearance/icons ? [15:52] Lol [15:53] hey guys, is kubuntu any diff then ubuntu? [15:53] kde over gnome, it's a bit different in general usability [15:53] nerdy_kid: Oxygen [15:54] Gerwin, right click the oxygen icons and hit apply. [15:55] nerdy_kid: Nope [15:57] Gerwin try reinstalling the oxygen icons: open a terminal and do sudo aptitude reinstall oxygen-icon-theme [16:01] nerdy_kid and after that is all ready. i can install software from windows [16:02] jorge wine is...very buggy to put it shortly. You will be able to run somesoftware from windows, but you have about a 50/50 chance. [16:04] nerdy_kid but the kubuntu is gonna be the same. [16:05] jorge what do you mean? wine is a program, so yes your kubuntu system will remain the same. [16:05] nerdy_kid: Nope [16:06] Gerwin details please.... [16:06] nerdy_kid: I reinstalled the Oxygen theme, but it doesn't change anything... [16:06] Gerwin, do you have any other icons installed besides Oxygen? [16:07] nerdy_kid: Not that I know [16:07] nerdy_kid ok excume my question, remember is my first time i never have been see that [16:08] Gerwin: do sudo aptitude install kde-icons-kneu and then switch to the kneu icons in systemsettings [16:09] jorge no such thing as a dumb question :) glad to help :) [16:09] nerdy_kid thank u [16:14] nerdy_kid: No luck again [16:14] Gerwin take a look in .xsession-errors [16:15] jorge always is good to google if there is native alternative for the program. === Gamoder is now known as PolitikerNEU [16:16] ArGGu^^ ok thank === gabo is now known as Guest34787 [16:34] oi! === manou is now known as amimusa [17:22] hi guys, I had a powercut and I am running a desktop without a UPS.

[17:28] *of typed by mistake [17:29] my pc doesnt has audio [17:29] apparle: if you're not sure what got damaged, you can try the enclosing ntfs (I'm guessing) fs, and only if everything's ok there, then it's indeed the wubi fs-in-a-file [17:29] jorge: ok did you try and play the test sound? [17:30] with the kubuntu [17:30] in system settings under multimedia module [17:30] amichair: good point, I'll check the ntfs [17:30] jorge: is this a new install?
