| jcapinc | Howto: static IP address on Kubuntu? Wicd does not work propperly.... 10.04 | 00:09 |
| jcapinc | anyone? please? | 00:10 |
| BluesKaj | jcapinc, http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/howto-ubuntu-linux-convert-dhcp-network-configuration-to-static-ip-configuration.html | 00:10 |
| Scunizi | BluesKaj: I must have more issues.. I can map a shared drive on my kubuntu box from a windows vm in vbox but I can't see/get to the windows vm from kubuntu.. access denied.. I also can't get to the shares on the kubuntu box from an Ubuntu laptop.. This all worked on 9.10 then I did an upgrade (failed) then fresh install and reconfigure. | 00:11 |
| jcapinc | Is KNetworkmanager such a failure that I need to hand-configure my static ip address? | 00:11 |
| Scunizi | jcapinc: I've no issues with wicd and a static ip | 00:12 |
| jcapinc | When I disconnect, wicd will not reconnect, its is a regular, nothing special ethernet setup | 00:12 |
| nobarking | jcapinc: use knemo | 00:13 |
| Scunizi | jcapinc: wired or wireless? | 00:13 |
| jcapinc | wired ethernet | 00:13 |
| BluesKaj | Scunizi, check your /etc/hosts.allow file , under portmap list your IPs like this : ALL:192.168.x.x | 00:13 |
| nobarking | jcapinc: sudo aptitude install knemo | 00:13 |
| sergio | putoo | 00:13 |
| BluesKaj | BBL... | 00:13 |
| sergio | bbl? | 00:14 |
| jcapinc | nobarking, should that replace knetworkmanager, or work along side it? | 00:14 |
| sergio | no | 00:14 |
| nobarking | jcapinc: it'll work along side | 00:14 |
| jcapinc | excellent | 00:14 |
| Scunizi | BluesKaj: ok.. added that. That type of permission is also part of the smb.conf file | 00:15 |
| nobarking | jcapinc: to get the latest version use this PPA just for knemo: https://launchpad.net/~darcio53/+archive/darcio | 00:15 |
| nobarking | the newest version integrates better with plasma | 00:16 |
| jcapinc | there is no place to choose a static UP | 00:16 |
| Scunizi | jcapinc: in wicd? | 00:16 |
| jcapinc | no, knemo | 00:16 |
| jcapinc | nobarking, where and how do I set the static IP? | 00:17 |
| jcapinc | nobarking, this is useless, all it does is monitor things, I cannot set any IP address, why in the world did you have me install this | 00:18 |
| jcapinc | Scunizi, I installed and uninstalled wicd twice, and removed knetwork manager, and left it running with knetworkmanager. It would not connect through wicd | 00:19 |
| jcapinc | I know the daemon was running, but it simply would not connect | 00:19 |
| jcapinc | Why is knetworkmanager such a failure I cannot set static IP address | 00:20 |
| Scunizi | knetworkmanager and wicd do not cooexist together well.. uninstall knetworkmanager and use only wicd.. then create a new connection with it using what you want for a static ip in the range of the subnet on your router.. | 00:20 |
| jcapinc | I did uninstall knetworkamnager, restarted my computer, and configured it correctly, checked 10 times | 00:21 |
| nobarking | jcapinc: the best way to set static ip is to edit /etc/network/interfaces | 00:21 |
| nobarking | knemo is a monitoring tool | 00:21 |
| jcapinc | so what was knemo for? | 00:21 |
| Scunizi | jcapinc: knetworkmanager and the gnome version are horrible for static IP assignment.. just doesn't work. I've hand configured and used wicd with good success.. not sure why wicd isn't working for you. | 00:22 |
| jcapinc | ur running 10.04? | 00:22 |
| Scunizi | yep | 00:22 |
| jcapinc | I will try that one more time | 00:23 |
| Scunizi | jcapinc: purge knetworkmanager first but make sure you have the wicd ready to go | 00:23 |
| jcapinc | be back, installed wicd, purge kcrapworkmanager, brb | 00:24 |
| jcapinc | restart | 00:24 |
| BluesKaj | he shouldn't have installed wicd , it will conflict with network NI , if he changed the default settings | 00:30 |
| BluesKaj | I guess jcapinc didn' t see the url tutorial on staic IP settings in NI | 00:32 |
| Scunizi | NI ?? what's that an abbrivation for? | 00:33 |
| Scunizi | Why do I have 2 pids for samba (smbd)?? | 00:34 |
| jcapinc | back, wicd failed, simply wont connect. Tried with static IP, did not connect, tried regular DHCP, and it came back and said it could not abtain an IP address. switching to manual because KDE networking = fail | 00:36 |
| BluesKaj | jcapinc, did you see the url i posted earlier , http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/howto-ubuntu-linux-convert-dhcp-network-configuration-to-static-ip-configuration.html | 00:38 |
| BluesKaj | wicd will conflict | 00:38 |
| jcapinc | yes, that is the manual approaceh I just said I would be trying | 00:40 |
| BluesKaj | jcapinc, if you setup the /etc/network/interfaces file to handle a static IP setting without using network managers like NM and wicd | 00:41 |
| jcapinc | is there more to that sentance? | 00:41 |
| BluesKaj | yes, uninstall NM and wicd | 00:42 |
| jcapinc | what do you mean by NM | 00:42 |
| BluesKaj | network manager | 00:42 |
| jcapinc | u mean knetworkmanager? | 00:42 |
| BluesKaj | same thing | 00:43 |
| BluesKaj | jacpinc left before I could tell him to restart by sudo dhclient | 00:49 |
| bill___ | anyone get text-to-speech to work on 10.04 | 00:52 |
| bill___ | hmmm, I guess not | 00:55 |
| cato37 | i tripped over the power cord and unplugged (dead battery) the laptop as it was going into sleep mode. now kubuntu takes a long time to load. is there a way to fix it? | 00:56 |
| bill___ | u can set it ip so there is no screen | 00:57 |
| bill___ | login scren | 00:57 |
| bill___ | screen | 00:57 |
| bill___ | I need a new laptop | 00:58 |
| cato37 | the other question is regarding wicd network manager and the kde network manager. both keep loading but the kde network manager is greyed out and reads unmanaged. how do i kill it, or unistall it? | 00:59 |
| bill___ | use synaptic software manager to uninstall | 01:00 |
| cato37 | what is the name the kde network manager? | 01:00 |
| Typos_King | cato37: killall knetworkmanager | 01:00 |
| BluesKaj | cato37, wicd and NM conflict , use one the other but not both, usually if wicd is installed NM is removed automatically | 01:00 |
| bill___ | KPackageKit | 01:01 |
| BluesKaj | synaptic is good , I prefer it | 01:01 |
| Typos_King | cato37: you can always use 'qps', which is like a visual 'top' :), it list the processes as well as kill and other stufff | 01:01 |
| bill___ | knetwork Manager works in 10.04 | 01:01 |
| Typos_King | works also on 7.1, just crummily :P | 01:02 |
| bill___ | yeah I used wi-cad prior to 10.04 | 01:02 |
| bill___ | works well enuff | 01:02 |
| Typos_King | not as good as gnome's I'm afraid | 01:03 |
| bill___ | they are kind of the same | 01:03 |
| Typos_King | yeah, but gnome's NM is much more reliable and simpler UI | 01:03 |
| bill___ | true, I guess I like the eyecandy stuf in KDE | 01:04 |
| cato37 | i like the knetwork manager but it has bugs. it freezes in "unmanged" mode when i put the laptop to sleep, and when selecting from various wifi services doesnt allow one to cycle thru to select another one (like at the coffee shop or airport). | 01:04 |
| bill___ | what version of kde r u using | 01:04 |
| cato37 | 10,04 lucid lynx | 01:05 |
| Typos_King | .. I use kubuntu, but I use gnome's NM, the install is just 2.3mbs in files | 01:05 |
| bill___ | hmmm mine works okay | 01:05 |
| cato37 | 10,04 lucid lynx lts | 01:05 |
| bill___ | what do u mean by unmanaged mode | 01:06 |
| bill___ | ahhh okay I seee, when u put it to sleep | 01:08 |
| bill___ | sorry, downloading some debugging tools | 01:08 |
| bill___ | so no help on text to speech? | 01:10 |
| cato37 | reHello | 01:20 |
| _CommandeR_ | hi guys, anyone knows how to get wubi working on a raid partition? | 01:21 |
| cato37 | thanks. that got rid of knetwork manager. i want to retun to usig it once the bugs are out of it. | 01:21 |

| thechris | de | 08:18 |
| pinkeye224 | hello | 08:18 |
| thechris | how goes it | 08:18 |
| pinkeye224 | pretty good | 08:18 |
| pinkeye224 | you running kubu ntu | 08:18 |
| thechris | yep | 08:19 |
| pinkeye224 | kde 4.4.2 | 08:19 |
| pinkeye224 | or newest | 08:19 |
| thechris | at first I was mixed, but then i switched the video card drivers. | 08:19 |
| pinkeye224 | not video | 08:20 |
| pinkeye224 | kde | 08:20 |
| thechris | Oh, I'm running whatever KDE is on 10.4 | 08:21 |
| pinkeye224 | 4.4.2 | 08:21 |
| pinkeye224 | cant wait till opensuse 11.3 comes out | 08:22 |
| thechris | maybe. My main goals are fairly basic. 64b OS, media, and ISE | 08:23 |
| pinkeye224 | i just dont get the ubuntu hype | 08:23 |
| pinkeye224 | this is my first time trying out kubuntu | 08:23 |
| thechris | Its really just the "i don't want to dick around with the OS today" that gets it for me | 08:24 |
| pinkeye224 | im about that | 08:24 |
| pinkeye224 | i just dont understnad why ubuntu is the best | 08:24 |
| pinkeye224 | gnome is crap | 08:24 |
| thechris | i started out with gentoo, so I've had my share of messing around | 08:24 |
| pinkeye224 | i started out with suse 9,0 | 08:25 |
| thechris | Yeah, i don't like that they make an OS around a DE. | 08:25 |
| thechris | for the most part, i tactily deny a difference between ubtuntu/kubuntu. | 08:25 |
| pinkeye224 | good | 08:25 |
| thechris | My main apps are still firefox, vim, and some media player. and ISE. | 08:27 |
| pinkeye224 | what is ise | 08:28 |
| thechris | its a development suite for fpgas. really I mainly care about the CLI tools. but it does use as much RAM as you can provide. | 08:29 |
| pinkeye224 | not too big into dev | 08:29 |
| pinkeye224 | except for web and java | 08:29 |
| pinkeye224 | cms | 08:29 |
| thechris | FPGAs are nearly as low-level as you can get. basically user defined hardware. | 08:29 |
| pinkeye224 | no me gusta low level languages | 08:30 |
| pinkeye224 | OO ftw | 08:30 |
| thechris | indeed, it is a different world. | 08:31 |
| jeremy | Anyone know if I can reinstall kubuntu with some file backup? | 09:08 |
| === jeremy is now known as Guest64214 | ||
| Guest64214 | As in, can I save my firefox settings (bookmarks mainly) and music/documents/pictures and reload the rest of my 10.04 install? | 09:08 |
| Atritas | Guest64214: If your home directory is on its own partition, just don't touch it. If it is, just do a backup of the entire directory. | 09:12 |
| Guest64214 | atritas, I have an external drive for backing things up, i was just wondering if it'd be possible to go around it.. | 09:14 |
| Atritas | Guest64214: Only if you use the advanced installation method and tell it that it should not touch the existing partitions and data on it (overwrite). | 09:16 |
| Guest64214 | atritas, how can i set up a partition for my home directory? And then how would I integrate it into the clean install? | 09:16 |
| Atritas | Guest64214: So if you have a seperate home partition its not a problem at all, if you don't an you reinstall you will have unneccessary data left over from the previous installation, which *could* mess with the new installation or lead to "interesting" effects. | 09:17 |
| Atritas | Guest64214: During a fresh install you can either let the installation routine setup harddisk partitions for you (which result in one big root partition if i remember correctly) or you do it manually. Then you can specify partitions an their desired mountpoints. Once you have your home directory in its own partition you won't have trouble with upgrades or new installations anymore (up to a point that is :-) ). | 09:19 |
| Guest64214 | alright, wish me luck haha | 09:21 |

| tma_ | hello! | 09:44 |
| arush_ | hello | 09:48 |
| arush_ | how i insatll game on kubuntu 10.04 | 09:48 |
| tma_ | Tell my how to configure dug through a proxy. I'm using kde 4.4.4. I also have the opportunity to register http \ https proxy and socks proxy. Where exactly is prescribed socks settings KDE? | 09:49 |
| tma_ | I dont have SOCKS On tab Proxy Servers. | 09:50 |
| tma_ | Tell my how to configure KOPETE ;) through a proxy. | 09:50 |
| Atritas | tma_: Kopete doesn't support proxying by itself. | 09:51 |
| tma_ | Atritas: oh.... on 3.5 is work :( | 09:53 |
| Atritas | tma_: afaik Kopete did never support proxying. | 09:54 |
| tma_ | Atritas: thanks :( | 09:54 |
| Atritas | tma_: The only chance you have (had) is defining a global proxy for all KDE relevant stuff in the system settings. | 09:54 |
| Atritas | tma_: mabye Kopete honors them, but frankly i don't know for sure. | 09:54 |
| tma_ | Into global proxy missing tab for socks proxyng | 09:55 |
| tma_ | Atritas: Into global proxy missing tab for socks proxyng | 09:55 |
| Atritas | tma_: The downside ofc is that just about everything started within KDE will try to use that defined proxies. | 09:55 |
| starslights | hello, intressting, kopete support proxy though socks, that's sure but the problem i have it's that it leak DNS , that's the only one problem so far :/ | 09:55 |
| Atritas | tma_: well, then you're out of luck here... Pidgin supports all of them out-of-the-box, if you don't mind switching. | 09:57 |
| Atritas | starslights: sorry, but i can't find any socks related settings within Kopete. Do you socksify it via dante maybe? | 09:57 |
| starslights | yeah, right pidgin don't leak DNS but the problem are that it freeze a lot :( | 09:57 |
| Atritas | starslights: never froze for me in the past 5 years. | 09:58 |
| tma_ | Atritas: Yes, I know. But I wanted to use KDE programs :) | 09:58 |
| starslights | ok, go in your preference, account, after menu "connection" do "activate server mandataire" | 09:58 |
| starslights | choose http or socks5 ;) | 09:58 |
| starslights | that's all :P | 09:58 |
| starslights | maybe i need report that DNS resolving bug while kopete are really a great client at many point | 09:59 |
| starslights | Atritas: i use Tor and have lot of connections, maybe that's the reason | 10:00 |
| starslights | i must say that i don't have tried again from a couple months ... | 10:00 |
| Atritas | starslights: seems i'm blind. still can't find proxy settings here besides for file transfers which are no "real" proxy connections. | 10:01 |
| starslights | it's named by me in French "serveur mandataire" in English it must not a big difference and their not many option .. | 10:02 |
| starslights | Atritas: i am sure that all connections get into my proxy , so i don't really get your point ... | 10:03 |
| tma_ | starslights: Oh :), | 10:03 |
| Atritas | starslights: no point at all. just curious because i was convinced that kopete doesn't have any proxy options. | 10:06 |
| tma_ | Atritas: starslights: Thanks!!! | 10:07 |
| Atritas | tma_: Thanks have to go to starlights only :-) | 10:07 |
| starslights | i think that it was the cas on previous release, that's was i used pidgin , now i hope that there will fix the DNS resolving and it will perfect :D | 10:07 |
| starslights | you are welcome _:D | 10:07 |
| tma_ | bb :) | 10:07 |
| Atritas | starslights: what's your version of kopete now? | 10:08 |
| starslights | 1.0.0 | 10:08 |
| starslights | but i can be wrong, i am on linux only from 1 and half year now :D | 10:09 |
| Atritas | starslights: AH, NOW i found them. seems Kopete supports proxying almost everywhere, just not where i looked (ICQ) :-) | 10:09 |
| starslights | :) | 10:10 |
| Atritas | starslights: sad... almost thought i could finally switch. well... | 10:10 |

| ubuntu | Hi ! | 17:52 |
| ubuntu | I need a partition manager for Kubuntu 10.04, where I can find it ? | 17:52 |

| kanhiya1 | sillysyl: yes!8-) | 17:53 |
| sillysyl | which partition manager I should use under KDE ? | 17:54 |
| sillysyl | I'm using the Live CD but there's nothing to manage partitions on it | 17:56 |
| Andrew9 | sillysyl: kubuntu is tnot the best choice for a livecd to use | 17:57 |
| sillysyl | Andrew9 : I just wnat to install it but I need to resize/create partitions first, I can't do it with the CD ? | 17:57 |
| Andrew9 | sillysyl: you can install gparted if you have internet connection | 17:58 |
| sillysyl | Andrew9 : yes I do, I'm using the live CD currently ;) But gparted will install a lot of GTK libraries | 17:58 |
| sillysyl | there's no more qtparted as it was before ? | 17:59 |
| Andrew9 | sillysyl: if its levecd you shouldn't be concerned about a lot of gtk libraries | 18:00 |
| Andrew9 | livecd* | 18:00 |
| sillysyl | Andrew9 : yes you're right, but also I like to have a built-in partition manager - it's always useful | 18:02 |
| sillysyl | Andrew9 : whatever, "partitionmanager" seems to be what I'm seeking, I'm installing it | 18:02 |
| sillysyl | apt-cache show partition manager : [...] Partition Manager is based on libparted (like gparted) and makes use of the | 18:03 |
| sillysyl | KDE libraries for its user interface. [...] | 18:03 |
| Andrew9 | sillysyl: good to know, thanks! | 18:04 |
| sillysyl | Andrew9 : thanks to you ;) So, I just installed it, and I'm using it right now, it's exactly what I was looking for ;) | 18:05 |

| tasslehoff | Dual-booting Win7 and Kubuntu, would the following partitions make sense? 1. W7 - NTFS 2. / - ext4, /home - ext4, /data - ext3, the latter ext3, because then I can mount it as ext2 from W7 and share media between the operating systems. | 18:53 |

| cato37 | i am satisfied with what gnu-linux-kubuntu lucid has to offer--a bit buggy but easily solved and not nearly as bad as the nightmare vista was to install and operate (a crash per month). one last question before i permanently take the plunge. there is no way getting around needing to use ms onenote for collabrative brainstorming with my workgroup. i dont want to dual boot vista with linux 'cause vista crashes like clockwork. should run wine | 19:13 |
| cato37 | or is there a virtual machine that might do the trick for just running onenote; or is there an open source alternative to onenote? | 19:13 |

While OneNote is most commonly used on laptops or desktop PCs, it has additional features for use on pen-enabled Tablet PCs, in environments where pen, audio or video notes are more appropriate than an intensive use of keyboards.

| fkefer | hi all! | 19:28 |
| fkefer | i just recently tried to put kubuntu on my work PC, only had a Ubuntu CD though, so what i did was install ubuntu and post-installed the kubuntu-desktop package | 19:29 |
| fkefer | the machine is a Acer TM6592, graphics is a Radeon HD 2400XT | 19:30 |
| fkefer | problem is: as soon as i first start KDE, the graphics turn _really_ slow | 19:30 |
| fkefer | and i mean _really_ slow, i can not possibly work that way | 19:30 |
| fkefer | AND: even when i log back into gnome again, the graphics settings are broken | 19:30 |
| fkefer | same slowness | 19:30 |
| fkefer | i can't even remember how i could get rid of this, gnome is OK now | 19:31 |
| cato37 | everyone in the group uses ms because they feel they have to, for things like illustrator, and onenote, but between gimp, inkscape, and blender (and a circuit design prog that escapes me), all the bases are covered and they are more than what we need. | 19:31 |

| blekos | ? | 20:14 |
| BluesKaj | yes | 20:15 |
| blekos | BlueskaJ was that for me? | 20:15 |
| BluesKaj | your sources.list is automatically setup to whatever platform you have installed , blekos | 20:15 |
| blekos | thnx | 20:16 |
| BluesKaj | be it 32 or 64 bit | 20:16 |
| blekos | I'll give Kubuntu a try then :) | 20:16 |
| BluesKaj | blekos, how much memory do you have ? | 20:17 |
| blekos | 4GB | 20:17 |
| blekos | y? | 20:17 |
| blekos | i use 64 for that reason | 20:17 |
| blekos | hopefully kubuntu will consume the same amount of energy so my laptop can last for a bit | 20:18 |
| BluesKaj | blekos, ok you may benefit from 64 bit , anything under 4G doesn't really get any faster with 64 vs 32 | 20:18 |
| blekos | got an i5 and using virtualbox as well. So I've chosen ext4 as well | 20:19 |
| blekos | whatever I get is welcomed :) | 20:19 |
| blekos | the only thing I always hated is the menu gets messed up | 20:20 |
| BluesKaj | blekos, so you are going to run windows on VB | 20:22 |
| BluesKaj | ? | 20:22 |
| blekos | yep, I'm running w7 and server 2003 | 20:23 |
| blekos | (not at the same time) | 20:23 |
| blekos | the only thing I am missing is iTunes (just to sync with my iPhone...) | 20:23 |
| blekos | :p | 20:24 |
| BluesKaj | should be ok , I ran vista in VB for a while til i bought W7 , now I'm dual booting | 20:24 |

| amichair | a bit off topic, but anyone know how to delete a trailing newline in the last line of a file with vi? | 23:25 |
| mbazdell | Hi all.. I have a rather interesting issue. I just install 10.04 x86 Alternate. Everything worked great. Then I turned off my computer, turned it back on, and I can't get eth* to be created. Under /sys/devices/* I can see eth0 coming up for slot 02:0c, lspci|grep 02:0c shows me my NIC (8254OEM Intel Pro 1000) and lsmod shows e1000 is loaded. Also dmesg|grep e1000 shows me it finds the card, assigns it eth0 and still nothing in /de | 23:31 |
| tsimpson | amichair: I don't know if there's a specific way to do that, but you can use 'dd' in command mode while on the line to remove it | 23:31 |
| mbazdell | ideas? | 23:31 |
| amichair | tsimpson: that would delete the line, I'm trying to delete the newline char (0x0a) at the end, and just can't find a way to do it... | 23:32 |
| mbazdell | I'm thinking it has soething to do with udev but I'm not sure. I tried removing the udev rule for net that is automatically generated and then rebooting, yet still nothing | 23:32 |
| tsimpson | amichair: if there is a newline char, it would start a new line | 23:33 |
| mbazdell | oh an /dev/.udev/db/ has net:eth0 | 23:33 |
| tsimpson | mbazdell: why do you need it in /sys/devices? | 23:33 |
| mbazdell | tsimpson: I don't. I just checked there to make sure the system sees it properly | 23:34 |
| tsimpson | mbazdell: see if there is a link in /sys/class/net | 23:34 |
| mbazdell | tsimpson: there is | 23:34 |
| tsimpson | should link to some PCI resource | 23:34 |
| tsimpson | then it's there :) | 23:34 |
| amichair | tsimpson: I see the newline in okteta, so it's definitely there (and causing me trouble). vi doesn't let me go to the line below because there's nothing there (or... dunno why) | 23:34 |
| mbazdell | my thinking is that udev just isn't making the device in /dev for some reason, and not giving any error or log about it | 23:35 |
| tsimpson | mbazdell: it shouldn't make it in /dev | 23:36 |
| tsimpson | /dev is not the right place for a network interface | 23:36 |
| mbazdell | tsimpson: ahh.. been a while since I've used Linux | 23:36 |
| tsimpson | except maybe virtual devices | 23:36 |
| mbazdell | used to be /dev/eth0 | 23:36 |
| mbazdell | that means I've been barking up the wrong tree then... hmm | 23:37 |
| tsimpson | well I have no network devices listed in /dev, and my network is working fine | 23:37 |
| tsimpson | and I haven't see anything in /dev about networking for years | 23:38 |
| mbazdell | okay.. hmmm | 23:38 |
| mbazdell | if I do `sudo dhclient eth0' it works | 23:38 |
| mbazdell | but I can't do ifup even though it's specified under /etc/networking/interfaces | 23:39 |
| tsimpson | what error do you get? | 23:39 |
| tsimpson | any why not use network manager? | 23:39 |
| mbazdell | ignoring unknown interface eth0=eth0 | 23:40 |
| mbazdell | network manager doesn't list any network interfaces | 23:40 |
| tsimpson | if it says that it means it's not set to configure eth0 | 23:40 |
| tsimpson | so something in /etc/network/interfaces is wrong | 23:40 |
| amichair | tsimpson: to test - open a new file in vi. press 'i', 'a', <enter>, <esc>, 'dd'. now the file consists of 'a' and 0x0a... how would you erase the 0x0a? | 23:41 |
| mbazdell | oh knetworkmanager doesn't load.. not sure why | 23:41 |
| mbazdell | I'm using the stable repositories | 23:41 |
| tsimpson | amichair: I don't see that, when I press 'dd', I only have one line with 'a' | 23:42 |
| amichair | tsimpson: ':wq' then hexdump the file... do u see it? | 23:42 |
| amichair | or ':set list', and the $ is there | 23:43 |
| tsimpson | I just see "a$" | 23:44 |
| amichair | the $ is a newline character :-) | 23:44 |
| amichair | I'm trying to get to a a-byte file containing only 'a' | 23:44 |
| tsimpson | yeah, I noticed | 23:44 |
| amichair | s/a-byte/1-byte/ | 23:44 |
| amichair | btw is there a cli equivalent of okteta? an editable hexdump? | 23:45 |
| tsimpson | amichair: odd, vi must automatically append a new-line. 'echo -n a > foo' gives a file with only 'a', but vi still shows 'a$' | 23:47 |
| tsimpson | same with nano | 23:47 |
| mbazdell | tsimpson: thanks for the pointers.. I was able to figure out where the problem was | 23:52 |
| mbazdell | tsimpson: turns out knetworkmanager had a stale pid file.. deleting that bad boy and rebooting fixed it | 23:52 |
| mbazdell | which is why knetworkmanager kept failing to start and get everything working | 23:53 |
| mbazdell | thanksa lot! | 23:54 |
| amichair | tsimpson: just found a (bizarre) solution: use the commands ':set binary' ':set noeol' and then write the file, and the final newline is gone. of course, next time the file is edited, the newline returns. hrm. | 23:54 |
