[00:39] I just bought a Sony Vaio VPCF127FX and tried slapping ubuntu on it, all was well and file except I couldn't do multi-monitor and my touchpad didn't work.

[01:42] yes but there is no 64 bit flash player [01:42] =[ [01:44] QpSmiley: any 32bit app should be able to run just fine on a 64bit hardware, there's backward compatibility, soooo, you should be able to install chrome 32bit anyway, using dpkg -i PACKAGENAME;, however, you should also be able to just use the 32bit libflashplayer.so as well [01:45] will 32bit flash player work in a 64bit browser? [01:46] so i sudo cd to my directory [01:46] should, sure [01:46] and then dpkg -i chrome-install.deb [01:46] yes, don't forget to 'sudo' :) [01:49] is cd the thing that moves you between directories [01:50] yes [01:50] you can just launch Dolphin and use that [01:51] i dont understand [01:51] nvm [01:52] I understand [01:52] Dolphin, is the file manager [01:53] it says package architecture (i386) does not match system (amd64) [01:53] you need to use "sudo dpkg --force-architecture -i ..." to install a 32bit package in a 64bit system [01:54] QpSmiley: yeah, tsimpson is correct, so ^ [01:55] okay lets see if that worked brb [01:57] can you say the force architecture command again [01:57] sorry xD [01:59] sudo dpkg --force-architecture -i PACKAGENAME === andre_ is now known as roydude === jtechidna is now known as JontheEchidna [02:34] can anyone teach me how to find a crash log?

[07:09] Is there a Kubuntu Manual I can download somewhere so I can learn more about before Iload Kubuntu to my old PC? [07:14] CharlesOberg: the best way to do it if you don't need anything on the old pc is to just install it.... else use http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/ to install a live distro to a USB stick and test it first [07:15] That is an awesome idea. [07:15] I will try the stick first, just to mesh it out. [07:15] I am ready to throw Winblows out the window. [07:17] CharlesOberg: what you can do is install virtualbox and run windows in a virtual machine... really easy, and you do need ot for some tools I've found [07:18] CharlesOberg: best of both worlds that way [07:19] Ah, okay.I am looking up virtualbox right now. [07:31] hello all === heath is now known as ybit [08:50] Hai! all, I have installed many useful apps and configured it well.I would like to make a Live CD/DVD for my current installation.Is there any script that automates the process? [08:50] Please help. [08:53] !customlivecd | h4nnibal [08:53] h4nnibal: Creating custom Live CDs is explained on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization [09:02] Are there any major differences between the CD image and DVD image? [09:04] ofirk: the DVD image has both the live installer and the alternate installer [09:04] that's about it [09:05] tsimpson: I read a post on ubuntuforums says that the DVD as all main on it so you don;t need an internet connection while installing... [09:05] so there are 2 benefits to the DVD [09:05] you don't need a internet connection when installing from the CD either [09:05] and no, it does not have all of main on it [09:05] you read a post from someone who is misinformed [09:06] so there is 1 benefit... [09:06] I am working on the new download page for kubuntu.org [09:06] and I am trying to explain way we offer a DVD [09:06] the only benefit while installing is that you have the option to use the live installer, or the alternate installer [09:06] it also has the core packages needed (usable by apt-get) on the DVD [09:07] so you can use it for some packages when you don't have an internet connection [09:07] It seems that avg. users won't understand the differences... [09:08] I think I will just point to the images with no explanations to avoid confusion [09:08] tsimpson: what do you think? [09:08] ubottu: Thanks for your help. [09:08] Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [09:09] ofirk: just mention that it combines the Live install and alternate install I guess [09:09] tsimpson: yeah, thanks for your time!

[11:38] i have a live dist booted so I can edit config files etc. [11:50] <[ade]> CQ: i had something like that just today where i had messed up xorg.conf, so no display or anything. when the machine is up, can you ping it or ssh in to it? that'd give you access to the logfiles and dmsg of the running system. [11:50] [ade]: I get no login prompt on any text consoles.... [11:51] <[ade]> obviously ping or ssh would only work if you have another machine on the same network, yeah. [11:51] ssh is not the problem, the problem is that logins aren't enabled yet, even with the recovery boot at that time [12:04] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ureadahead/+bug/523484 this was the problem.... [12:07] CQ: you could boot with quiet and splash removed so that you can see the boot messages [12:09] apparle: ureadahead in /var on a separate filesystem is the problem...

[14:53] odla you want to boot the kubuntu install from usb? [14:53] *installer [14:54] ArGGu^^: yup ... i could use unetbootin but i prefer dd ... if it isn't an option i'll use unetbootin [14:54] hi.. i just wanted to ask.. in the kubuntu 10.04 pre-release version there was a program, i think its name was: "playmouth-set-theme" , to change the plymouth theme... seems like it is gone since the LTS version was released.. is it possible to change the plamouth bootloader theme somehow? [14:55] *plymouth [14:55] odla never tried but it might work [14:55] !plymouth [14:56] !info plymouth [14:56] plymouth (source: plymouth): graphical boot animation and logger - main package.

[14:58] odla: that's easy... just use the program "usb-creator" [14:59] but unetbootin will definitely work [14:59] howlymowly, dunno there may be different themes , but I don't see it unril I shut down , you can change the lofin manager look and splashscreens in system settings [14:59] there exist versions for kde and gtk: usb-creator-kde, usb-creator-gtk [15:00] odla: usb-creator-kde is available via packet manager [15:00] BluesKaj: that's right.. but plymouthg is not about the login manager.. its about the bootsplach directly after grub [15:01] howlymowly, I don't see the bootsplash on mine .. [15:02] just the login [15:02] odla: usb-creator takes an iso loads it onto an usb deivce and makes that device bootable.. .. fits for almost all linux live cds [15:02] BluesKaj: why is that :)? [15:03] howlymowly, good question, but I think the login theme might take over from it if it's not default , but different [15:03] BluesKaj: well.. it doesn't on my computer :) .. but that isn#t such a bad idea anyway.. i'll look on google how to disable plymouth boot manager... [15:03] howlymowly, at least that's what I'm seing anyway [15:04] plymouth isn'treally a manager [15:04] hello all.. i've got some problems with xorg..

[15:32] of course not =) [15:33] skamster, check your framerate with glxgears , with your card it should up around 15k in 5 secs [15:34] full screeen should still be around 3-4k [15:35] apt-get install mesa-utils for glxgears =) [15:36] Result in initialscreen: 46457 frames in 5.0 seconds [15:36] and in fullscreen: 3949 frames in 5.0 seconds [15:36] (a average) [15:37] isn't glxgears in the nvidia-sw? ;) [15:37] nop [15:37] ok.. then i learned something new today :D [15:39] BluesKaj: so i think, this result is normal.. but not the cpu-usage on normal (2d) working [15:39] :s [15:42] ah, i've seen, that one of my cpu-cores is down on 800Mhz..

As you can see the last post says the card is working correctly as of.,.. April 15th [16:31] I have thr flgrx drivers installed already. And i update my system everytime im prompted.

I suffered the same problem again. And I think I know the cause. [17:24] avihay: I think the problem is linked to ureadahead. I say this because I had the same problem again after uninstalling avahi-daemon and samba. Those, I believe, change /etc/init[.d]/ and cause a rescan to occur. [17:24] avihay: Having said that, I'm looking over the ps listing. As far as I can tell, the missing memory isn't in processes. Perhaps it was in shared memory? [17:26] I think I'll reinstall avahi-daemon and restart and use ipcs to get shared memory information. [17:27] Any other ideas on where to look for possible memory usage? [17:29] bbs [17:32] ... [17:35] Yep, reinstalling avahi-daemon caused it to happen again. Unfortunately, the leak isn't in shared memory. :/ [17:46] I also found a bug report matching my problem: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ureadahead/+bug/501715 [17:50] * Kuwanger sees if the shrinking the tracing buffer trick works. [17:55] Well, that was it. And I was able to reset the tracing buffer size. [17:56] Though, /var/lib/ureadahead/debugfs is still seemingly mounted. [17:59] how can i create a bootable live usb? i've tried dd but that doesn't seem to work [18:01] odla, unetbootin [18:01] bazhang: unetbootin doesn't seem to work ... it says unetbootin when i reboot then the screen is blank [18:02] odla, then it was a bad 'burn' ; sometimes takes me a couple of tries to get it right [18:05] <36DAASUXO> does anyone have any idea when 4.5RC1 will packets will be released? [18:05] Kuwanger: Well, good work, the launchpad bug page is already full with discussions, looks like you were also right on the money [18:05] * Kuwanger is going to see how much ureadhead helps. [18:06] avihay: Shame it's some obtuse kernel setting, though. That just makes it harder to diagnose. :/ [18:06] Well, thanks for letting me rant. At least now I know of a workaround. === toretto is now known as nozim [18:37] Well, playing around with bootchart and ureadahead as suggested by one of the people who worked on it...I've discovered that ureadahead doesn't help my startup time at all. [18:49] Anyone here? [18:49] nobody but us chickens. [18:51] Any ideas as to why kubuntu wont recognise my monitors max resolution? [18:51] Perhaps your video driver doesn't support that rez? [18:53] >.> [18:54] The new way that X is configured is great when it gets it right. But it can be ... difficult when it gets it wrong. [18:55] To get the max rez, if it isn't autodetected, might well involve you having to set the modeline manually in /etc/X11/xorg.conf. [18:55] not only is the resolution smal, but everything looks ugly [18:55] fonts look kinda blurry [18:55] What video card do you have?

[18:58] * ragnarok_ Shrugs [18:58] just installed kubuntu-desktop from gnome [18:59] Then it's not a KDE vs. GNOME issue. [19:00] Any ideas on what to do? [19:00] Try setting the rez using krandr. [19:01] or SystemSettings. [19:01] it show the max resolution as 1024x768 no matter what i do [19:01] then it's a limitation of the video driver. [19:02] heh [19:02] any way to check what driver im using? [19:03] Yeah.
