[00:45] Hello, h.ow can I make dm-crypt volumes visible in dolphin's side panel? I saw it in Fedora 13 Live cd === djustice_f is now known as djustice [00:55] how do I see a list of chatrooms? [00:56] just type -> /channels [01:15] anyone know how i might solve this bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kdebase/+bug/594854 without going through all my .desktop files? [01:16] i thought maybe disable ubuntu's translation system [01:27] hello [01:27] i can't connect with wifi [01:27] i click on the wifi spot in the network managaer but don't happen nothing === pd is now known as Guest24797 [01:28] ahemm [01:29] aliceinwire: can you install another network manager? :) other than knetworkmanager [01:29] like ยง? [01:29] like network-manager-gnome [01:29] oh ok [01:30] but i have first to disinstall knetwork manager [01:30] ? [01:30] no [01:30] you can have it there, just not run it :) [01:31] ok [01:31] thx [01:31] why kubuntu exist ? [01:31] what do you mean? [01:31] is not gnome sufficent gui ? [01:32] If knetworkmanager pops up "unmanaged" perhaps your wifi is not managed by network manager? [01:33] why you have to make difficult stuff is not better to have only one gui and bind the power for make it grown [01:33] than be dispersive and develope similar gui ? [01:35] aliceinwire: yes and no, depends hehe, gnome and kde are just 2 different desktop and window managers environments, they both work for what they do, I like kde apps seem I find more practical ones there, than in gnome suite, thus [01:42] gettin on [01:45] why is windows still so easy to use compared to linux [01:46] df [01:46] why is windows still so easy to use compared to linux [01:46] pd_: ;) you must be new eh? [01:46] pd_: stay calm and keep your learning hat on.. [01:47] is there a channel for lighttpd? anyone knows? [01:47] seattlegaucho: does their webpage have any infos? [01:47] I didn't find it [01:47] * seattlegaucho re-checks [01:48] seattlegaucho: yep. freenode. #lighttpd [01:48] http://redmine.lighttpd.net/wiki/lighttpd#Community [01:48] djustice: thank you! [01:48] seattlegaucho: np [01:48] i am. i just tried to install second life and it said that my processor aint powerfull enough i have a alienware m17 with a i7 forgods sake. whats up with that [01:49] how would i prevent kde from loading a particular line in .desktop files system wide? [01:49] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kdebase/+bug/594854 [01:49] plz help! [01:49] pd_: heh, binary fail. it's their fault. they use mac. try either a) forum posting about it (might be your drivers) b) building it yourself. [01:50] pd_: tough cookies i guess.. id go poke the linden people. if i cared. im not a secondlifer rly.. [01:51] pd_: to be fair tho, it runs fine here. x64, 2gbram, lame intel810 card. [01:51] is there any known issues with the i7 on ultimate edition 2.7 it seems very slow especially when i try to run any flash websites [01:52] nerdy_kid: i might suggest mailing Riddell or jono ;) if i were a kubuntu guy.. its a kde/locale/rosetta? issue i guess. [01:52] or is ultimate edition linux just crap [01:53] pd_: who knows.. try one that will teach you. :) arch. gentoo. even debian minimal or something. [01:53] djustice thanks :) i find them on launchpad? === ussher is now known as ussher_ [01:53] pd_: i cant use any *buntu.. they keep borking and breaking with weird minutia bugs.. [01:53] * djustice apologizes to the channel [01:54] nerdy_kid: i have no idea. ;) hint: the emails are in the kubuntu-meta package info iirc. [01:54] whats mandriva like i heard thats a good one to learn with [01:55] You want to learn? Slackware or Gentoo. :-) [01:55] pd_: yea i learned with mandrake.. its alright i guess. pretty straightforward to learn. lots of distro specifics there tho.. [01:55] *cough* arch [01:55] learn? nothing better than lfs [01:55] arch ok il try that.. Thank you [01:55] http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/ [01:56] seattlegaucho: indeed :) takes forever tho.. [01:56] but you *do* learn :) [01:56] yepyep [01:56] if you don't have that much patience, the LFS LiveCD is a good alternative [01:57] yep. and alfs is automated even. just pop it in and read. ;D [01:57] still. archlinux for news. chakra linux for wizards. kubuntu for windows refugees. [01:57] ;P sry.. [01:58] kubuntu for lazy users :) [01:58] ultimate edition for nobs [01:58] djustice lol thanks :P [01:58] * seattlegaucho that's why I <3 kubuntu [02:31] test [02:47] Quick question: Does anyone know of a way to print out media library information? Like a track listing and such? [02:52] You could possibly pipe eyeD3 output to lpr, but I cannot think of a gui solution off the top of my head. [02:52] Erm... how would I go about doing that? [02:53] you can use the find command to find all of your mp3 files and execute the command eyeD3 for each then finally pipe to lpr. Let me visualize the script and I will paste it in. [02:54] Thanks ^_^ [02:54] Would this work for other formats as well? The majority of my library is .flac, with a few .ogg and .mp3 mixed in. [02:58] hmm ok. eyeD3 will work for id3 tagged mp3 and flac, but not ogg [02:58] I know there is a more generic cli tool to do it. [02:59] *nods* That's okay. Nearly all of the files are .flac and .mp3. [02:59] but not all flac have id3 tags, but they can. It is kind of odd. [02:59] flac support both vorbis tagging and id3 tagging [03:01] *nods* All of mine are tagged... I can only assume that they're id3, but I'm really not sure. [03:03] I am trying to install libtaglib2.0-cil to see what options that has. It seems to support ogg, flac, mp3 and more. It is based on taglib. [03:04] Ah, that seems to already be installed for me. [03:07] that is just a mono library for it. I misread the package details. === jarrett_ is now known as Vegeta [03:22] AreioWolf I posted a quick python script to http://pastebin.com/t6m108xe [03:23] it requires the python-tagpy package to be installed [03:23] by default it goes against the current working directory [03:23] I put the script in ~/bin and made it executable [03:24] Then at the root of my music folder I ran it. $ printtags [03:24] You could use printtags | lpr to print it to a printer [03:25] Wow, thanks ^^ [03:25] Okay... I'm installing python-tagpy. [03:25] hi ;) [03:25] What do I save the script as to make it recognized? Is there any way in particular? [03:26] I just saved it to the bin directory in my home folder and named it printtags [03:26] then I made it executable [03:27] The #!/usr/bin/env python tells the system how to execute it when it is ran. [03:27] any particular filename/extension? [03:27] I am not sure if that directory is in your path by default. I cannot remember if I manually added it or not. [03:27] If it is not, you can just use the full path name when executing ie /home/yourname/bin/printtags [03:28] Okay... let met try this. [03:29] ok. try it without going to lpr first so you do not waste paper by mistake [03:29] Oh, this is going straight to the printer? [03:29] you could even put it into a file instead, then use a text editor to print it [03:29] if you pipe it to lpr via | lpr [03:29] That would work. How would I put it to a file? [03:30] I'm feeling like a newb here. What's "lpr?" [03:30] you would use >> filename ie /home/yourname/bin/printtags >> mymedia.txt [03:30] line printer [03:30] Ah, okay. [03:30] it is just a quick and dirty way to send text to a printer from the command line [03:31] Okay, so what would the command be? [03:31] first goto the directory that contains your media [03:31] okay, hold on [03:32] Once there use -> ~/bin/printtags >> mymedia.txt [03:32] This will create a new file in that same directory called mymedia.txt [03:32] the >> means to not overwrite the file, just append. using only one > will overwrite the file if it is already there. [03:33] I am assuming that you saved the script to your bin directory in your home folder [03:33] ~ is the short way to reference your home directory [03:33] I'm getting a "permission denied" error [03:33] ok, so it is not executable [03:34] you can do python ~/bin/printtags >> mymedia.txt [03:34] this will force it to run using python and avoid having to make it executable [03:35] Okay, I successfully ran it, and it created the file, but it's blank, just showing the tops of the columns with "Artist" "Title", etc. [03:35] you can use dolphin to make it executable via properties of the file, permissions tab [03:35] hmmm [03:35] I have no music on this computer to test with [03:36] let me see if I can hook up my media player and try again [03:36] Okay [03:36] Thanks a lot for your help. I'm learning a lot, whether or not the problem's solved, lol. [03:38] It seemed to work for me. The output sure isn't pretty though. Can you paste your command that you ran? [03:38] sure [03:39] python /usr/bin/printtags >> mymedia.txt [03:40] and you are at a directory that contains your media? [03:40] yep [03:41] I had copied and pasted everything that I'm interested in making a list of, and put it all in one directory. And the terminal is pointed at that directory. [03:41] cool [03:42] works fine [03:42] it will do a recursive find anyway for the files. My battery is about to run out. I will check back in IRC in 10 minutes. [03:43] harriseldon > Okay [03:43] goodtime > What did you do to get it working? [03:44] idk dir/cd/get naww lol [03:44] that the fserve [03:44] lol [03:45] your file system does everything you said it should work [03:46] i think it just worked for me other pc's might be a prob though [03:47] I'm running Ubuntu 10.04. [04:02] welcome back [04:02] thanks [04:02] did you get it working? [04:02] No, I didn't [04:03] The file is in /usr/bin, and is called "printtags", just as yours is. [04:03] It just doesn't seem to pick up on the media in the folder. [04:04] Ack! Hold on. I pointed the program to my music folder, and it spit out a huge, organized list. [04:05] (my usual music folder, not the one that I compiled the files into) [04:05] yeah, it should recursively search through all files [04:05] Hang on... [04:05] it only seems to have read through three albums [04:06] ok [04:06] it may be running into an error and exiting [04:06] I did not put in any error checks [04:06] okay [04:08] Aha! It only exported tags for .ogg and .mp3 files. [04:08] That might be the problem. [04:09] But not all of the .ogg and .mp3 files [04:13] do all have valid tags? [04:14] Nearly all of my music is recognized by Banshee/Rhythmbox/etc., and shows Artist, Title, and other information [04:18] ok. I am going to change it so that it writes the data into an html table instead. Then you can open in your browser and print it from there. I will also put in a little bit of error checking. I will put the new pastebin when it is done [04:22] try http://pastebin.com/RV759HsD [04:22] it will output it as html to bring up in a browser [04:22] just use > mymedia.html instead of .txt [04:23] then you can just open the file in a web browser (xdg-open mymedia.html) will work from the command line [04:24] okay, hold on [04:26] It comes up as blank. [04:28] hmmm. It did not for me. Are you running it against the media directory that mostly worked before? [04:29] No. Let me try that again. [04:31] Okay, it partially worked again. The same files that showed up before still do. [04:35] Ah, okay. I've examined things some more, and found that the media that goes through is exclusively .ogg. [04:38] is there any way to assign a key combination to stuff in a KDE4 Plasma panel? (want a key combo to open a folder view' ) [04:46] AreioWolf it is a problem with my find command [04:46] I will give you the updated line of the file to change manually [04:48] AreioWolf update line 14 with the following: cmd = 'find . \( -iname "*.mp3" -o -iname "*.flac" -o -iname "*.ogg" \) -print' [04:48] then save the script and try again [04:50] alo [05:48] Is there a papercuts project specifically for Kubuntu? [07:06] does someone use pidgin with skype? I get there general protection errors and pidgin crashes when I log in to skype network [08:00] hi [08:00] heloo [08:01] heloo [08:03] hello friends, i am using Kubuntu 10.04 with Firefox 3.6.3, my firefox is not able to render devanagari fonts properly, where as with same os and version of FF on my friend's system rendering is proper [08:03] what am i missing? any package / plugin?

Please help. after upgrading to lucid X11 segfaults on starting KDE4. http://pastebin.ca/1884127 [09:03] Fleg_: the logs says "try installing NVidia Driver"... did you try that? [09:03] Fleg_: what is the output of "aptitude search glx" ? [09:03] greenmang0: yes nvidia-96 is installed [09:04] greenmang0: also nvidia-lgx-96 (it's an old gerforce 4ti) === patrick is now known as Guest72649 [09:29] Fleg_: what about "xtrap" module? [09:29] greenman0: libxtrap ist installed also [09:34] Fleg_: which package does libxtrap belong? i didn't find it in ubuntu repos [09:34] Fleg_: but there's libxtrap6 in Debian repo [09:36] greenmang0: i'v installed it libxtrap6 manualy. what can I do to do it the clean way (to be pooled with dependecies)? [09:36] Fleg_: ok.. i found libxtrap6 in ubuntu repos [09:37] Fleg_: just "aptitude install libxtrap6" is fine [09:37] greenmang0: I'v gone it. [09:37] Fleg_: first remove it "aptitude purge libxtrap6" [09:37] Fleg_: then install [09:37] greenmang0: ok. [09:41] Fleg_: did you find the package? [09:42] Fleg_: libxtrap6 was available in karmic repos but it's not in lucid repos [09:43] Fleg_: http://packages.ubuntu.com/karmic/libxtrap6 [09:43] greenmang0: "c libtrap6" what does "c" mean there? [09:44] Fleg_: package is not there but just the configuration files [09:44] greenmang0: ok. removed. [09:44] greenmang0: yes. it isn't there. [09:45] Fleg_: since the package is not available in lucid repo, the manual install is the only option [09:45] greenmang0: Why I would need it after an upgrade. I used to have a newer version of Xorg then. [09:47] Fleg_: newer version of Ubuntu doesn't always mean newer version of every package comes with it [09:48] Fleg_: I have never tried nvidia myself, i am helping you on the basis of EE errors in xorg log [09:48] greenmang0: well Xorg shoud have been upgraded I think. Is there a way to fix the whole system? (like emerge world in gentoo) [09:49] Fleg_: at the most you can try "aptitude update && aptitude safe-upgrade", i don't know what "emerge world" does [09:49] greenmang0: sorry for such questions, I'm new to debian/ubuntu. Have been using gentoo for about 10 years. [09:50] Fleg_: what's wrong with gentoo? [09:50] :) [09:50] greenmang0: emerge world build all the system from scratch making sure all the packages are in place and all dependencies are correct. [09:50] Fleg_: i like gentoo but never really tried that much [09:51] Fleg_: then "aptitude update && aptitude safe-upgrade" this is proper command [09:51] greenmang0: I's a PC for my girldfriend. Wanted to install something simple for her. [09:52] greenmang0: aptitude safe-upgrade says all packages are up to date. =/ [09:52] Fleg_: hmm [09:53] greenmang0: maybe I can do a fresh install and then copy over the configs.... [09:53] greenmang0: I would install gentoo if it would take 2 days to compile the whole system.... [09:54] Fleg_: :) [09:54] Fleg_: http://packages.ubuntu.com/karmic/libxtrap6 [09:54] Fleg_: from this link install the deb file [09:54] Fleg_: dpkg -i filename.deb [09:55] Fleg_: and then try if it works [09:55] greenmang0: ok. thx. [09:55] Fleg_: also try dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg [09:55] Fleg_: lunch time... see you after some time [09:56] greenmang0: yep. [10:03] greenmang0: didn't help. [10:07] imali nqkoi ot BG??????? [10:48] hai [10:50] Fleg_: any luck? [10:50] greenmang0: no. [10:50] greenmang0: didn't help [10:51] Fleg_: so what are you doing? reinstallation? [10:51] greenmang0: I guess it's the only choice.

Is it safe to upgrade without them? [12:51] stamp_: do you mean blocked updates? [12:51] yes [12:53] stamp_: i beleave it is safe to ignore them... they tend to be packages that require another package to be removed (or something similar) so kpackagekit 'blocks' them as they have a higher risk of breaking things (although I havent noticed them ever breaking things) if you want to install them anyway you can run this from terminal: "sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude full-upgrade" [12:54] James147: thx [12:54] there are some KDE and xorg packages === ubuntu_ is now known as dbonne [12:54] stamp_: take it you have the backports ppa enabled?

[12:58] stamp_: I would recommend installing them... just check that they arnt accedently upgrading to the beta version (version number will be >=4.4.85 if they are) [12:58] James147: you now i'm using kubuntu 10.10 so they are beta [12:59] Machtin: looks to me like dolphin started with a spific session [13:00] Machtin: Qt option: --session Restore the application for the given 'sessionId' [13:05] what's the name of the new Kubuntu logo font ? [13:05] James147: but why does it read with 50mbyte/s all the time? is it indexing something or just trying to be annoying? [13:07] Machtin: didnt think that dolphin did indexing (it relays on strigi and nepomuk for that) only think I can think of is moving files... [13:08] why would it do that without me telling it to do such a thing? [13:09] Machtin: It wouldnt so I doubt it is doing that (also there is no write so it cant be) [13:09] hm, right. [13:09] that's strange. [13:09] Machtin: But I really cant think of what it could be doing... I suggest closing and reopening it see if that helps... [13:14] hello. is there an ssh plugin for KRDC? where can i find it if there is? [13:14] James147: mh, just had to reset, couldn't do anything anymore. [13:14] but thanks! :) [13:22] list! [13:28] how to apply kde style for gtk ? [14:07] hi I just fresh installed kubuntu 10.04 and my wi-fi isn't working (it was pretty fine with 9.10 though) [14:15] zePh7r: you might want to try the gnome networkmanager (installs: network-manager-gnome run: nm-applet after killing knetworkmanager) [14:16] James147: already done that. both seem to have deactivated the option to enable wireless [14:18] zePh7r: do they give any message? [14:18] no, simply don't let me enable wireless [14:20] you probably need to install the driver for your wireless, then. [14:21] you need to know the make of your wireless hardware. [14:26] my mouse acceleration is at 0.1x; how can i decrease my sensitivity even further (and remove the acceleration) [14:29] Dyrcona: any way I can know that? [14:31] you can google your laptop model. see what comes up. [14:31] Hi guys. Using Kubuntu 10.04 here: I've accidentally messed up with the mixer (KMixer) settings and now I don't have any sound at all. My card is Sis SI 7012. Does anyone can recommend a fix for this? Maybe a way of resetting the sound config to Kubuntu's default? === otswim is now known as babalu [14:35] galvao: open the mixer and make sure that none of the channels are muted or have the volume turned down... if none of them work go to settings > configure channel > drag channels from Availble to Visable and make sure they arent muted/turned down [14:36] galvao, open alsamixer in the terminal, speaker-test -c2 -Ddefault -t wav [14:36] James147: Doing that now, let's see if it solves the problem (fingers crossed) Thanks for the quick reply [14:36] oops don't open alsamixer [14:37] * BluesKaj backs off [14:40] James147: Did that. Had a few mutes. Unmuted everything and all volume indicators are up [14:40] James147: Still no sound [14:40] :( [14:41] galvao: are the speakers plugged in? :) [14:41] Dyrcona: Yes =) [14:41] galvao: is the kernel module for your sound card loaded? [14:41] Dyrcona: How do I check it? [14:42] galvao: lsmod [14:43] Dyrcona: This line? snd 54148 16 snd_intel8x0,snd_ac97_codec,snd_pcm_oss,snd_mixer_oss,snd_pcm,snd_seq_oss,snd_rawmidi,snd_seq,snd_timer,snd_seq_device [14:44] looks like it is loaded if those are the right modules. [14:44] my sound card is SiS and not Intel tho... *confused* [14:44] you have an intel chipset on the motherboard or SiS? [14:45] SiS SI7012 [14:45] right, but the motherboard chipset is also SiS? [14:45] oh... That's a good question. It might be intel... [14:45] Does lspci provides that info? [14:46] don't remember of the top of my head. [14:46] Like "Host Bridge"? [14:46] think so. [14:47] If so, it's SiS [14:47] 00:00.0 Host bridge: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] 760/M760 Host (rev 03) [14:47] sounds like you might have the wrong modules loaded for sound, then. [14:47] Dyrcona: Does messing with Kmixer causes that? [14:47] try googling for your sound chipset and "kernel module" see what comes up. [14:48] galvao: does "lspci | grep Audio" output anything? if so tahts your sound card [14:48] and I dont think kmix can screw that up [14:48] Yeah, my thoughts too. hold on, running [14:48] galvao: i don't think it should, but i don't do the programming. [14:49] James147: 00:02.7 Multimedia audio controller: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] AC'97 Sound Controller (rev a0) [14:49] I've only messed up with Kmixer and Alsamixer, guys [14:49] I've opened Alsamixer in an attempt to try solving this [14:50] galvao: and ther are no muted changels or ones with the volume turned down? [14:50] galvao: its usually PCM and Master/Front that control the speakers [14:51] James147: Not at all. I have one marked "capture" tho... Mic [14:51] galvao: the mic shouldnt matter :) [14:51] but no mutes or down volume indicators [14:52] James147: k =) [14:52] Can't Alsamixer screw this up, since I've opened after I've messed with Kmixer trying to solve the problem? [14:52] *opened it [14:53] galvao: aslamixer is just a commandline util similar to kmix... not sure what they could do to screw it up [14:54] oh my... [14:54] What can I do? [14:54] Oh, I remember I've also opened the "Select master channel" popup, but I didn't changed anything there [14:55] what is the glassy looking desktop window on the desktop for? [14:55] galvao: that only choses the chanel that kmix will change when you click it... does "speaker-test -t wav" preduce any sound? (ctrl+c to exit) [14:56] James147: No sound [14:57] cato37: the folder view widget? its for displaying the contents of a folder (desktop by defalt)... acts similar to how the old style desktops work where the desktop is just the contents of a folder [14:58] ic. i deleted it and wondered where it went to and what it was for. [15:00] cato37: its place there by default because people are use to seeing folders on the desktop (or atlest thats why I think its there) since plasma is trying to move away from the desktop being a static folder view you place widgets on it instead of folder (although you can change this behavour) [15:00] ic. i like my desktop clean. [15:00] cato37: It basically allows quick access to a common folder but isnt needed if you dont care about it [15:01] thanx. [15:02] galvao: you might want to check out: system settings > Multimedia and see if everything looks fine there [15:03] I see my card there, repeated with additional information. But if I test any of them the test button stays pressed and I get no sound [15:04] James147: And I see a Jsck Audio Connection Kit as well [15:04] s/Jsc/Jac/; [15:05] galvao: you see your card repeated? [15:06] James147: Yes, like: 1) SiS SI7012 with AD1888... 2) SiS SI7012, SiS SI7012 (IEC958.... [15:07] and the third item is the Jack Audio thing [15:07] galvao: not sure what to do now :S [15:07] oh my [15:07] TT [15:08] James147: Thanks anyway, man. =) [15:08] !sound | galvao [15:08] you can try the below links for more help [15:08] galvao: If you're having problems with sound see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 [15:10] <[GuS]> guys, in 10.04, Ozone window deco is not more available? cause i used to use that to change window border color, which with Oxygen i think i cant [15:12] hahahahahahaha SOLVED IT!

I've muted it and now it works =D [15:13] galvao: heh [15:13] galvao: note sure why that broke it [15:14] James147: Thanks for your time, I've really appreciated [15:14] and thanks to whoever triggered the bot's help =) [15:16] I'm out! =) [15:22] hey!

[17:23] also will the 4.4.4 packages get put into kubuntu 10.04 lts as these are just maintainence releases and are there to fix bugs? [17:34] lontra: kde 4.4.4 is already in lucid's updates ppa ( http://www.kubuntu.org/news/kde-4.4.4 ) [17:35] but that's not officially supported right? [17:37] lontra: not sure if it's 'officially' supported but its the only (read: easiest) way to get it.

I have just upgraded from 9.10 to 10.04, but now, when I try to launch the "process launcher" with ALT+F2, it doesn't work. Same when CTRL+ESC to launch the process manager. Any advice? [18:53] chuso: first check to see if krunner is running [18:58] what kind of process manager is chuso referring to? [19:00] jmichaelx: I am guessing krunner/ksysguard [19:01] ksysguard launches with alt+escape by default? [19:01] ok, apparently not [19:02] jmichaelx, James147_ I mean the task manager which runs when you push CTRL+ESC [19:02] jmichaelx: somthing similar i think its embedded in krunner with alt+esc [19:03] btw, when I type "krunner" in konsole, I get this output: (7828)/: Communication problem with "krunner" , it probably crashed. [19:03] ah haa.... CTRL+Esc works [19:04] chuso: well, theres they problem :) krunner wont start... this happened imedently after uprading? [19:04] James147_: yes, it worked before upgrading [19:05] chuso: try running: "sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude install -f" and see if it installs anything [19:06] chuso: if it does it means you had a broken package dependency and it should try to fix it [19:06] James147_: nothing happens after doing what you said :( [19:07] chuso: nothing at all, or no packages installed? [19:07] no packages installed, and I tried again to run "krunner" [19:08] chuso: hmm [19:09] chuso: you could try deleteing ~/.kde/share/config/krunnerrc [19:09] chuso: that will reset it to the default settings and fix and errors inside it (if there are any) === James147_ is now known as James147 [19:10] James147_: it didn't worked. I'm going to create a new user, to test a new login without any kde config. [19:11] I will be back in a minute [19:11] chuso: that would be my next move :) [19:11] :p === Raiden is now known as Guest74657 [19:16] James147: I can't believe it... With the newly created user, krunner didn't work, but now, when I login again with my default user, krunner is working again :/ === evilshadeslayer is now known as shadeslayer [19:17] chuso: heh, dont you just love problems that fix them selves (after hours of debugging...) :) [19:20] haha programs are becoming smart [19:20] chuso: nah, they are just figuring out how to most anoy us [19:21] i am having trouble migrating my files from winrar saved backups divided into 4.5 gig dvd sections saved at zero compression with a 5% redundancy check. ark keeps crashing or giving an unexpected end file error (winrar divides between the files when going to another disk volume). is there another archiving tool that can get my files transfered to kubuntu? === family is now known as whois [19:22] James147: btw, thanks a lot for your help! :) [19:22] guys what is the meaning of ' failed to open pty.' [19:26] hi all i want know about the "fine tunint" settings of kde inside the "Apearance" of "System-Settings" [19:27] apparle: I am guessing that 'pty' couldnt be opened :S can you give more info into what you are trying to do? [19:27] so. if i set low cpu and low display means wich kde have a low resolution and use the minimum of cpu? [19:27] James147: I have compiled a software from source and when I try to run its executable it outputs that msg [19:27] apparle: what program? [19:28] James147: its something related to carbon nanotubes, wait I'll give you link [19:28] James147: http://www.princeton.edu/~cad/nanotools [19:31] anyone know of an archiver that can handle specialized .rar files made by winrar? [19:31] James147: while compiling it was looking for /usr/bin/lex and /usr/bin/yacc. I pointed it to the ones in freebsd-buildutils [19:32] !rar [19:32] rar is a non-free archive format created by Rarsoft. For instructions on accessing .rar files through the Archive Manager view https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression. There is a free (as in speech) unrar utility as well, see !info unrar-free [19:32] !info unrar-free [19:32] unrar-free (source: unrar-free): Unarchiver for .rar files. In component universe, is optional.

[19:36] i did. it (ark) keeps crashing. [19:36] i wil read the url helps. [19:38] for future reference what is a good compression format to save to for backups? [19:38] apparle: not entirly sure what its ment to do :S [19:39] James147: goto http://www.princeton.edu/~cad/projects.html and read the description of the TELS/MALS (That's the one we are concerned with) [19:42] James147: do you get anything? [19:43] apparle: that tells me practally nothing :S [19:44] James147: I know... I am also stumped here. [19:44] James147: in general what is the meaning of unable to open pty [19:44] James147: as the source is pretty old, maybe I would have to modify source a little [19:45] apparle: as I said, pty cannot be opened :) sounds to me like a device... might want to find out what it is [19:45] James147: its totally a software, does nothing with hardware as such [19:46] apparle: dosnt mean it dosnt use decives... looking at the source a bit it seems to be looking for /dev/ptyXX [19:48] James147: what is ptyXX? [19:48] James147: I mean like sda is harddisk, tty is terminal, what is pty [19:48] apparle: my guess is some kind of terminal as its trying to pair with with a tty [19:49] James147: you have any ideas to fix it? [19:50] apparle: not really sorry... but I would guess it is because you dont have a pty :)might want ot look into what that is [19:54] hello, how configure kaffeine with phonon in kubuntu 10.04 all I have is transparent screen [19:56] removido: kaffeine I think automatically uses phonon I think, you are installing kaffeine from repo's right?

[23:14] dunno [23:14] i only change to static my servers [23:14] Andrew9, I'll bet you use a 2wire router .. [23:15] wizzy_: something is wrong. it says "unmanaged" [23:16] hmmm [23:16] BluesKaj: 2 wire router? is belkin n+ that kind of router? [23:17] Andrew9, no but they use the same chip/firmware [23:18] usually when umanaged is shown , then NM is longer being used , replaced by /etc/network/interfaces [23:19] err unmanaged [23:20] Andrew9: looks good but id press "TAB" before netmask , address and gateway [23:21] so it will be little space [23:21] wizzy_: will it make a difference ? [23:21] try [23:22] i always do that [23:22] something as been bothering me for a while im pretty sure its easy to fix but i can't figure it out [23:23] Exaucutioner: if i can help i will if not my good friend Google.com will help for sure ;) [23:23] lol [23:23] Andrew9: is it working yet?

[23:25] Exaucutioner: I think kde toggles it... remember a setting somewhere.. [23:25] * James147 starts digging in system settings [23:25] Andrew9, your computer IP , should be different than your gateway IP , check the IP undergateway iwith this command, ip a | grep inet [23:26] BluesKaj: i know, i said that the address is 192.168.2.2. [23:26] did that allready i looked in keyboard options [23:26] and put the toggle to "on" still didn't change a thing :S [23:27] som im like wth >.> [23:27] BluesKaj: his configs looks good [23:27] i dunno why it doesnt work [23:28] do you still have nm ? [23:28] maybe he need to change nameservers [23:29] if you are going to use /etc/network/interfaces , then NM needs to be ither disabled or removed [23:29] Exaucutioner: The option in the keyboard settings will be for your user (ie after you log in) [23:29] ahhh i see makes sense ... [23:29] BluesKaj: huh how do u disable NM>>??
