[16:26] yes, it is [16:26] it displayed errors about firmware before, but after I installed firmware it don't display any errors [16:27] Naktibalda: does "iwlist eth1 scan" report anything?

Does my DDR3 ram have gears in or what? Could someone else just try holding in Alt+Tab and listen for a sound? [17:55] appleseed: normally its the hhd that makes the moist noise (unless your using a cd rom) but ssds should be silent :S [17:56] appleseed: could it be a loose/broken fan? [17:56] appleseed: although not sure why you only hear it when you alt+tab :S [17:56] James147: I do have some storage hdd's and a cdrom connected, but when I Alt+Tab I can hear a distinct sound in my PC, very distinct, on each Alt+Tab press. [17:57] I actually remember hearing such a sound on XP too on an older computer years back, but only when pressing Alt+Tab [17:57] appleseed: does it happen when you do anything else? (copy files or large processing?) [17:58] James147: No never, only Alt+Tab, It must probably be a hdd access on each Alt+Tab, like a single hit or something, but I can't see the hdd light flashing in those instances though. [17:59] I think I'm going to have to make a YT video of it someday and post it under PC anomolies or something, but thx James147 anyway. [18:00] appleseed: dont see any reason for your comp to access your hhd when you alt+tab (execpt swap, but I doupt its that) [18:01] James147: yes it seems unlikely for me too, and the swap is on the SSD as well, so it's strange. === warren_ is now known as Guest29184 === rackIT is now known as rackIT_AFK === ubuntu is now known as aykay [18:26] Is there anyway to access an install of kubuntu while on a livedisc session on that machine?

[18:29] xD [18:29] i used often [18:30] how do I do that? [18:30] hi every one [18:30] aykay: it should be listed in dolphin or the device manager... you should be able to click on it to mount it [18:31] I've mounted an NTFS drive from the installer to /windows , but I can't set read, write or execute permissions [18:31] james147, I installed some Nvidia drivers through the hardware drivers app, but now my screen goes black at the boot splash. Kubuntu is still loading though, it still plays the startup chime [18:31] can any one help me to install a video mate x30 tvtuner drivers on kubuntu [18:32] i want to change from windows to linux, but its only my tv tuner preventing me to change [18:33] aykay: try renaming /etc/X11/xorg.conf and restarting x [18:37] james147: I've mounted the hard drive, but I'm not sure what you mean by renaming the file [18:37] do you mean in dolphin? [18:38] are there any way to see if kubuntu automatically installed my videomate x30 drivers, in other words, are there any way i can see all my hardware like in windows [18:38] aykay: sudo mv /path/to/mount/etc/X11/xorg.conf /path/to/mount/etc/X11/xorg.conf.bak will do it (replacing /path/to/mount with the actual path) [18:40] hennie: sudo lshw will show all your hardware connected modprobe -l will list all loaded modules [18:41] cool, thanx, will have a look [18:42] I've mounted an NTFS drive from the installer to /windows , but I can't set read, write or execute permissions for others [18:42] i use ubuntu but i like kde and a go change to kubuntu, ihave some questions, getdeb and play deb work in kubuntu???

[18:44] James147: with ownmask=0000?

[18:45] aykay: firefox 3.6 and kubuntu 10.04 [18:45] aykay: sounds like you don't have a folder called /media/disk/etc/x11 [18:45] little x in that X11 [18:46] it's a flash issue, flash in konqueror also dont play in my usb headset [18:46] but in me regular loudspeakers [18:46] sona_, have you checked the headphone volume in the mixer? [18:47] volume is on [18:47] guys can I make such a setting that touchpad turns off as soon as I plugin an external mouse [18:48] avihay, I'm on a livecd session. I mounted the disc in dolphin, and opened the /etc/x11 folder in terminal and then used the command james gave me [18:48] I can hear sounds in my headphones from all applications except flash in a web browser. Flash in the web browser outputs to my regular loudspeakers [18:50] avihay, james147, If i have /etc/x11 open in both media and root folders, is there a way to just replace any files on the hard disk so that it'll load as default upon restart? [18:51] aykay: it X11 not x11 but if you are in the directory you can use relitive paths (sudo mv xorg.conf xorg.conf.bak) [18:52] Hello everyone [18:52] i input that in terminal, but it didn't seem to do anything... [18:53] aykay: sucess wont give any output "ls" to see if it worked [18:54] alright, so just try restarting as normal now? [18:54] aykay: yup [18:55] okay, thanks!

[21:19] TaskbarGone: the taskbar is a widget... rightclick the panel > add widgets > look for task manager > drag it back [21:21] James147: Where do I drag it back _to_? thanks [21:22] TaskbarGone: to where you want it... probally on the panel [21:22] TaskbarGone: if you get rid of the paenl by accdent right click the desktop > add panel [21:22] James147: what is meant by "the panel"? thanks [21:23] TaskbarGone: the bar at the bottom of the screen [21:23] TaskbarGone: that normally holds the task manager, app launcher systray etc [21:26] James147: hm, trying to get the terminology correct: When said "task manager", I meant "the bar at the bottom of the screen, which holds ... ap launcher, systray, etc", so perhaps my original help should have said "my _panel_ is gone", using your terminology. It is the popup bar across the bottom of my screen showing my running applications, &etc, that no longer pops up. - Are we thinking the same concept here? Thanks [21:28] TaskbarGone: yes, the panel holds the task manager (or task bar) you should beable to right click on the desktop and click on "add panel" to get the panel back (it will be empty) you can then drag the widgets back onto it (widgets are things like the app launcher, task manager, system tray, clock, etc) [21:29] TaskbarGone: or you can reset the desktop to the default settings by deleteing the files that start with "plasm" from ~/.kde/share/config/ [21:30] TaskbarGone: (note: you will need to logout and log backin to see the changes after deletin the files) [21:32] James147: 1) That doesn't work, 2) I'm also working with someone in the #kde channel on this, if you care to follow that info as I try to discern what the solution is, Could you check that there right now?

[22:39] question: i'm new to Kubuntu, and am trying to use the disk burning program to burn an ubuntu liveCD. What are the right settings? I tried what i thought was right, it had no errors, but is not bootable. [22:43] newboon2age: k3b usually picks up the right settings, although I would turn down the burning speed to the lowest (less likly to screw up the burn) and make sure the "bootable" checkbox is checked... if you have a usb flash drive >1gig that you can wipe then you can create a live usb instead using "usb-creator-kde" [22:44] newboon2age: ^^ assumes you already have an install [22:46] James147: thank you for responding. I have a Kubuntu wubi install on one machine, while on another i have ubuntu lucid and that one after going through a distribution upgrade booted to grub2 recovery interface. Need to boot that one w/ an ubuntu lucid disk and trying to burn it now. [22:47] What are the plans for putting KDE 4.5 into KUbuntu? Will it go into KU 10.4? 10.10?

[22:57] newboon2age: you click on the .iso file, not the emprt disk (note: you cant find empty disks in dolp[hin as they have no filesystem and so cannot be mounted) [22:58] James147: ah, okay let me try... [22:59] James147: okay it brings up an archive manager... [23:00] newboon2age: rightclick > open with > k3b (or other and pick k3b) [23:01] James147: okay that brought up k3b [23:01] newboon2age: with a burn image dialog? [23:02] i see where to turn down the speed but not where to make it bootable. [23:02] James147: yes [23:02] newboon2age: one sec, === krawek is now known as Guest14529 [23:05] newboon2age: cant see one either... but I dont have any cd drives :S I think it should automatically make it bootable though ( it always did for me) [23:06] James147: okay here goes nothing... [23:07] James147: got it at 10x [23:07] James147: w/ simulation [23:08] Simulation wont burn anything, it will just pretend to [23:09] James147: in brasero it simulates first, then burns if okay. i usually use that in brasero to give me some assurance it is on the right track. [23:10] newboon2age: normally running a simulation just makes the process take alotlonger then it should :) [23:11] James147: you may be right. :) i've just been having so many problems w/ this ... too many non-booting disks. [23:12] newboon2age: uaully I find a problem with the disk after its burnt, not during the burn/simulation (also consider using a usb flash drive... since I starting using them I havnt had any wasted cds and alot less hassel with the process of creating one)_ [23:13] !menus [23:14] James147: that's a good point. I don't think i have a handy bootable usb pendrive though. [23:16] James147: actually i think i just learned something. it looks like that 'simulation' setting doesn't follow w/ a real burn, but just pops out the disk, giving the mistaken impression that its written when its not... [23:17] newboon2age: I think any pendrive thats more then 1 gig will do (dont think there is anything spical that makes them bootable..) its normally what computer you want to use them with that is the bigger problem (older ones cannot boot from usb) [23:18] newboon2age: dident think it did (but I havnt actually burnt anything in a few months) I think it might do that because there is little point in simulating before every burn [23:19] James147: wow, i'd consider it a bug because it really gives the impression its done something unless you study the feedback info. Whats worse is it doesn't give a 'okay let's really do it now' option. [23:21] newboon2age: not a bug... if you check something called "simulation" I would invistagate into what it actually does... but you are right a new feature to offer an option at the end of a burn would be a good idea [23:23] James147: imo a bug especially since it pops the disk(!) which really lends a false impression and since a number of other programs work w/ a simulate first, then burn pattern. [23:23] James147: so since i was unsure of the options I quit the program and restarted it as you'd instructed... [23:24] James147: now burning... [23:24] James147: hopefully anyway... [23:25] newboon2age: a warning before starting when simulation is checked would be a good idea but other then that it should od everything a normal burn does (except burn) [23:25] newboon2age: if you want it changed consider filing a feature request [23:25] James147: and not pop the disk [23:25] James147: yes, i agree. [23:26] newboon2age: I think it should... its part of the simulation... [23:28] James147: the only real clue i got was that the simulation choice was mutually exclusive from the 'verify data' choice. This confused me, but now i understand why. Nonintuitive imo. [23:30] newboon2age: either way there aint much point in discussing it here... yiu should file a feature request [23:31] James147: now its verifying.,, [23:31] How can I create an encrypted single text file, in my home directory, easily accessible via a text editor like kate? Purpose: I'll store some account names & passwords there. Thanks :) [23:33] James147: yes, it'd be a good request. So that first disk is just blank probably. Its kinda a relief to know the disk wasn't wasted. [23:33] TaskbarGone: you can always store that info in kwallet [23:34] hi friends ;) [23:34] (i'm french) [23:35] !fr | wilow04 [23:35] wilow04: Ce canal est en anglais uniquement.

[23:37] newboon2age: usb-creator-kde [23:38] James147: that burn worked! Yeah! ty for your help. i didn't see usb-creator-kde on the menu, is that one i start from the CL? [23:39] James147: i just looked again and found it... [23:39] :) [23:40] James147: thanks for your help and dedication!!! === bazhang_ is now known as bazhang
