[00:03] <nUboon2Age> dmatt: BluesKaj: you two did great.  ty so much!!!
[00:04] <BluesKaj> nUboon2Age, perhaps in the near future , you might consider dual booting windows and kubuntu
[00:18] <nUboon2Age> BluesKaj: perhaps... i've been checking it out for me gf, who had used kde before and whom i'm trying to help migrate from Windoze...
[00:19] <nUboon2Age> BluesKaj: i've got an all-ubuntu system now and used Wubi to check out kubuntu...
[00:22] <BluesKaj> nUboon2Age,  ok , understood

[06:26] <Khaotic> hi
[06:26] <Khaotic> i need a vnc client
[06:41] <e_t_> Khaotic: there are many VNC clients (and servers) for Linux. KRDC is one I use frequently. It can do both VNC and RDP, and is build on KDE. Wow, that was a lot of acronyms.
[06:46] <Khaotic> e_t_: can i vnc to it from my andriod app?
[06:47] <e_t_> Oh, you want a VNC *server* on your computer so that you can connect from your phone.
[06:49] <UrielCorinthian> Hi there... Silly question - I'm new to KDE (on Kubuntu 10.04). How do I set the default application for files? Every time I double-click a PDF (or open it from an e-mail), GIMP starts up and I really want Okular to handle it.
[06:49] <crazy6> KDM/X won't start. nvidia graphics card. fixable?
[06:50] <maco> UrielCorinthian: right click -> open with -> other
[06:50] <maco> UrielCorinthian: pick okular in there and check the "remember" checkbox
[06:54] <UrielCorinthian> maco - I've done that though...
[06:54] <UrielCorinthian> It still seems to reset it...
[06:54] <UrielCorinthian> Plus - check the image attachment here - why is there a million copies of Okular in the list of choices here...? http://imagebin.org/103402
[06:56] <e_t_> UrielCorinthian: You can also right click -> properties, then click on the wrench icon to the right. The lower half of the window that appears allows you to select which applications to use for a file type, and in what order.
[06:58] <UrielCorinthian> e_t_ - thanks... Just found that one... Looks more promising, since I can see that it stays on Okular now :)  Do you have any idea why there would be so much repetition in the Open With dialog though?
[06:58] <UrielCorinthian> There are other apps that also have multiple instances listed there...
[06:59] <Khaotic> anyone know how to install wine?
[06:59] <Khaotic> e_t_: yes
[06:59] <e_t_> UrielCorinthian: That I do not know.
[06:59] <UrielCorinthian> Okay :)  Thanks for the help though
[07:00] <maco2> UrielCorinthian: https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gimp/+bug/599785
[07:01] <maco2> UrielCorinthian: bah wrong bug
[07:01] <UrielCorinthian> :)
[07:01] <Khaotic> i need help
[07:01] <UrielCorinthian> I'll wait
[07:01] <e_t_> Khaotic: The counterpart of KRDC is KRFB, the KDE Remote Frame Buffer. It is a VNC server, and you can either send invitations or allow open connections. If you've got a VNC client on your phone, you should be able to connect. That's the nice thing about standards.
[07:01] <maco2> UrielCorinthian: https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gimp/+bug/574342
[07:01] <maco2> UrielCorinthian: kdesu kate /usr/share/applications/mimeinfo.cache
[07:01] <maco2> UrielCorinthian: move okular to first
[07:01] <Khaotic> so get KRFB?
[07:03] <e_t_> Khaotic: Or, you can pick something from "aptitude search vnc". As I said, there are many clients and many servers.
[07:03] <Khaotic> i want something that i can view windows stuff too
[07:03] <Khaotic> i really want realvnc
[07:04] <Khaotic> but idk how to set it up
[07:04] <UrielCorinthian> maco2 - thank you. THink that should do it...
[07:04] <UrielCorinthian> I'll check it out
[07:04] <e_t_> Khaotic: VNC is VNC. If you have a Windows box with a VNC server on it, you'll be able to connect to it.
[07:05] <Khaotic> well i have 2 windows computers and this linux laptop
[07:06] <Khaotic> i wish teamviewer worked on linux
[07:06] <e_t_> Khaotic: so you want to view the Windows boxes from the Linux laptop?
[07:06] <Khaotic> yes
[07:09] <e_t_> Khaotic: OK. Install KRDC, then open it. You can press alt+F2 and type krdc, or you can search for it in the K menu > Programs > Internet > KRDC.
[07:12] <Khaotic> e_t_:  i need a client like teamviwer
[07:12] <Khaotic> viewer*
[07:12] <UrielCorinthian> Thanks for the help guys, I'm out
[07:12] <UrielCorinthian> Later!
[07:18] <e_t_> Khaotic: I do not know of a Linux app that does as many things as teamviewer seems to do, but a combination of (any) VNC client + FileZilla FTP + Kopete/Pidgin IM seems like it would offer similar features.
[07:19] <Khaotic> wats a vnc client like it
[07:20] <Z-RAY_> guys i tried to manually reinstall kdenlive and MLT from source, because i had these white dots and lines and now kdenlive don't see many modules! help me, please to make this thing work
[07:20] <e_t_> Khaotic: how does this look? http://www.ubuntusquad.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/screenshot-rdp-krdc.png
[07:21] <Khaotic> yuh
[07:22] <Khaotic> like i wanna vnc to and from linux
[07:22] <Khaotic> to and from windows
[07:25] <e_t_> Khaotic: Then you need a client and a server on each end. I think your choice of specific software is a matter of preference. Try several and see what you like. You can always remove the others.
[07:25] <Khaotic> how?
[07:25] <Khaotic> i never found how to remove software lol
[07:27] <e_t_> Khaotic: apt-get or aptitude can both install and remove software. "sudo apt-get install $package" installs, and "sudo apt-get remove $package" uninstalls.
[07:30] <Khaotic> oh
[07:30] <Khaotic> can you help me install realvnc?
[07:30] <Khaotic> krdc isnt seeming to let me connect
[07:31] <e_t_> Khaotic: Have you configured your server to allow connections?
[07:31] <ajmal> can i install hdd temperature monitor on kubuntu
[07:31] <ajmal> ?
[07:31] <ajmal> any software....?
[07:35] <e_t_> Khaotic: realvnc is a proprietary/commercial app. I'll refer you to their website: http://www.realvnc.com/products/enterprise/4.5/install_debian.html
[07:35] <Khaotic> im on ubuntu
[07:36] <e_t_> Khaotic: Ubuntu is a Debian derivative. You'll follow the same steps.
[07:36] <Khaotic> oh awesome
[07:38] <e_t_> Khaotic: Just put "sudo" on the front of the commands to run them as root.
[07:43] <Khaotic> ok
[08:15] <emre> hey all
[08:15] <noaXess> good morning
[08:15] <noaXess> hey emre

[08:20] <noaXess> emre: but i haven't switech from ubuntu to kubuntu-desktop.. but maybe it can help you
[08:21] <noaXess> does anybody work with racoon? i start racoon with sudo racoon and with specific settings.. after few minutes the racoon connection goes down, cause sudo timeout.. then i need to insert the racoon command again..

[09:31] <amichair> is kde 4.4.5 an unofficial release?
[09:32] <amichair> (there's no news about in on kde nor kubuntu site, but it's already in the kubuntu ppa)
[09:33] <jussi> no, its the rc1
[09:33] <jussi> http://www.kubuntu.org/node/157
[09:36] <amichair> jussi: I don't use the beta repo (as the link says), only ppa and backports... is an RC supposed to be there?
[09:36] <jussi> amichair: Im not sure. I dont use the "ppa" - is it the experimental ppa? if so, could be anything there...
[09:37] <amichair> https://wiki.kubuntu.org/Kubuntu/KubuntuPPAs
[09:38] <amichair> jussi: as I understand it, it's supposed to be updates akin to ubuntu updates repo
[09:43] <Space_Man> join #gentoo
[09:43] <Space_Man> oops
[09:56] <amichair> jussi: Riddell clarified that it's not 4.5RC, but indeed a 4.4.5 - which just hasn't been anounced yet by anyone (upstream or kubuntu). Sounds safe, in any case. Thanks!
[09:56] <jussi> :)
[10:15] <Khaotic> erm
[10:15] <Khaotic> im on an INM Thinkpad and have no sound
[10:15] <Khaotic> what do i do
[10:15] <Khaotic> i think my sound driver was lost when i installed linux
[10:21] <Iraq> How install file .tar.zg ? please step by step
[10:21] <bazhang> Iraq, on bt4?
[10:21] <Iraq> Allah Akbar
[10:21] <Iraq> what you doing here again
[10:21] <bazhang> Iraq, #backtrack-linux for bt4 support not here
[10:22] <Iraq> i didn't asked your help so please if you can do not insert your noise in some thing not your business and thank
[10:23] <bazhang> Iraq, as has been explained to you many times, backtrack is not supported in ubuntu channels. #backtrack-linux is the support channel for bt4 NOT here
[10:24] <Iraq> man can you keep your noise , do not talk with me i will not reply you
[10:26] <Khaotic> interesting
[10:26] <Khaotic> what is back track?
[10:26] <ikonia> it's an ubuntu dirivitive
[10:27] <ikonia> not to worry though, kubuntu is the distro of choice here
[10:27] <Khaotic> i think my sound driver was lost when i installed linux
[11:57] <anthony_> hio
[11:57] <anthony_> hi
[12:37] <slow-motion> hi
[12:46] <ofirk> hello
[12:46] <ofirk> I am looking after some source about Dreamworks using Kubuntu
[12:47] <ofirk> I don't know if it is true, though so if someone here knows anything about it...
[12:51] <ikonia> ofirk: contact dreamworks, it's not really something the community can help with unless they work for drreamworks
[12:52] <ofirk> ikonia: thanks
[12:52] <ikonia> sorry it's not the best response
[12:52] <ikonia> but anything else would just be speeculation, if it does help I do know they have linux machines for rendering, but its not really #kubuntu sort of discussion, join #ubuntu-offtopic if you want to chat about it
[13:51] <cleric^^> any1 on this channel? O_o
[14:24] <Z-RAY_> can anybody tell me what is -fPIC and how to recompile with it?

[15:08] <galvao> Greetings. I can't make my headset's mic to work at all in Kubuntu 10.04. Can someone please help? Some detail can be found here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1514371
[15:11] <galvao> I have a web meeting in 6h and i'd hate to forcely look for a cyber cafe to do this... =/
[15:19] <Soldier3> galvao: mic it is microphone ?
[15:19] <galvao> Soldier3: Yes, sorryt about that: Microphone
[15:22] <Soldier3> I have same problem. Skype do not work. but...
[15:22] <galvao> but...?
[15:23] <Soldier3> I install pulseaudio
[15:24] <Soldier3> sudo aptitude install pulseaudio
[15:24] <Soldier3> and sudo apt-get install pavucontrol
[15:24] <galvao> I've already installed pavucontrol
[15:24] <galvao> it's there, on the post
[15:25] <bazhang> !info padevchooser
[15:26] <Soldier3> galvao: look pavucontrol/inpute Devices
[15:27] <galvao> Soldier3: where can I find that?
[15:27] <tucemiux> pulse audio? LoL
[15:27] <tucemiux> if you install pulse audio you might regret it later
[15:28] <galvao> Soldier3: My pavucontrol doesn't work. Once again, it's all there in my post in ubuntuforums
[15:30] <galvao> On an unrelated note: Can I just add the ppa and upgrade KDE? Nothing to worry about here? (Yes, I have a backup, but it's always better not to use it, if you know what I mean)
[15:30] <Soldier3> galvao: Good
[15:30] <galvao> Soldier3: Good?
[15:30] <Soldier3> make sudo apt-get install pulseaudio
[15:31] <galvao> I don't wanna sound bitchy, but shouldn't pavucontrol installed that as a dependency in case it wasn't already installed?
[15:31] <galvao> I mean pavucontrol must depende on pulse audio... or at least that seems to be logic
[15:33] <Soldier3> galvao: I know  English bad.
[15:33] <galvao> Soldier3: Where are you from?
[15:34] <Soldier3> galvao: jast do what I seid
[15:34] <galvao> [upgrading to  KDE 4.4.4]
[15:35] <Soldier3> galvao: Ukraine
[15:36] <Soldier3> galvao: first install pulseaudio
[15:37] <galvao> Soldier3: Sorry, I'll pass on that
[15:37] <galvao> this shouln't be necessary at all
[15:37] <Soldier3> galvao: did you do it
[15:37] <galvao> something is just wrong with the whole case
[15:37] <galvao> no, and wont do it
[15:37] <galvao> unless someone proves me that's an excellent reason to do so
[15:38] <Soldier3> In console
[15:38] <galvao> I'm not an advanced [k]Ubuntu/Linux user as you can see, but I'm not too new either and I need good arguments. This whole pulseaudio thing just doesn't seem logic
[15:38] <Soldier3> sudo apt-get install pulseaudio
[15:39] <galvao> Soldier3: Sorry to take yoour time and thanks for the help so far

[17:32] <SID> hi
[17:32] <SID> anyone around?
[17:34] <urgen> between the miriads of joins and parts there are probably quite a few people around
[17:34] <SID> lol
[17:34] <urgen> questions get answered often
[17:34] <SID> anyone around that can help me out?
[17:34] <urgen> but not if you don't ask
[17:35] <SID> im looking to dual boot windows 7 with Kubuntu
[17:35] <SID> and wondering the best way to go about it
[17:35] <SID> also......does wubi actuall install the OS? or does it run it from the iso?
[17:36]  * urgen checks what wubi is
[17:37] <Pici> It installs it to a file inside your windows partition.
[17:37] <SID> does it run any slower than a proper install would?
[17:37] <SID> what i mean is....is it the same as running from the live CD?
[17:38] <SID> becasue thats hella slow
[17:38] <Pici> No, it is much more like a 'real' install.
[17:38] <SID> hmmm
[17:39] <SID> could i partition my hard drive with the windows 7 disc....then install 7 on one of the partitions and then boot from the kubuntu cd and install it on the other partition?
[17:40] <Guest92207> hi how can i install kubuntu along windows 7?
[17:41] <Guest92207> HELP!!!! PLEASE!!!
[17:41] <urgen> hehe
[17:41] <urgen> two in one
[17:41] <SID> LoL
[17:41] <Guest92207> so can u help
[17:41] <urgen> along can mean a few things
[17:41] <Guest92207> dual boot
[17:42] <urgen> usually you make multiple partitions and use a boot manager
[17:42] <urgen> but this wubi thing looks cute
[17:42] <Guest92207> can u explain?
[17:42] <djustice> Guest92207: install windows7 first. then just do the next-next-next stuff for kubuntu. it splits/shrinks/dual-boots with windows by default..
[17:42] <urgen> a virtual virtual system
[17:42] <djustice> screw wubi
[17:43] <Guest92207> i already have windows 7 installed
[17:43] <ridin> Guest92207, when you start the installation via the cd, you have the chance to resize your partitions
[17:43] <Guest92207> how
[17:43] <djustice> Guest92207: just next next next the kubuntu installer disc then
[17:43] <urgen> partitions can be resized if there is space
[17:43] <Guest92207> wait
[17:43] <djustice> dont worry about partitions. just boot the disc. and follow the installer.
[17:43] <urgen> hehe
[17:44] <Guest92207> i put the cd in my computer now what
[17:44] <urgen> ouch
[17:44] <urgen> isn't there a wiki?
[17:44] <Guest92207> should i click run wubi.exe
[17:44] <urgen> no
[17:44] <Guest92207> then?
[17:45] <ridin> Guest92207, how big is your harddrive
[17:45] <Guest92207> 500 GB
[17:45] <ridin> oh, you'll get a small kubuntu partition, either like 30/15 gb
[17:46] <Guest92207> how
[17:46] <ridin> what do you mean how
[17:46] <Guest92207> i don't know what i should do to install kubuntu in windows 7
[17:46]  * urgen looking for the wiki steps
[17:46] <urgen> I don't feel like holding hands today
[17:46] <ridin> Guest92207, do you want to try it out or install it completely with more disk space?
[17:46] <Guest92207> sorry but could u plz help thanks
[17:46] <urgen> http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Lucid#Dual-Booting_Windows_and_Ubuntu
[17:46] <Guest92207> intall it completley
[17:47] <ridin> well, you need to restart your computer, and boot from your cd
[17:47] <Guest92207> will that replace my windows &?
[17:47] <urgen> read the wiki first
[17:47] <Guest92207> windows 7?
[17:47] <djustice> Guest92207: after you put the disc in, reboot the computer. kubuntu should boot.
[17:48] <djustice> Guest92207: if not, you may have to enter your computers bios and tell it to boot from cd drive.
[17:48] <djustice> Guest92207: after kubuntu boots, there is an 'installer' icon.
[17:48] <Guest92207> so it won't replace windows 7 right?
[17:48] <djustice> Guest92207: nope
[17:48] <ridin> Guest99207, no you have the chance to install side by side
[17:48] <Guest92207> thanks
[17:48] <Guest92207> ill try it now
[17:48] <djustice> installing side-by-side is the default.
[17:48] <Guest92207> plz wait thanks a lot
[17:49] <djustice> overwriting everything is a nondefault option. so you must tell it explicitly to do so.
[17:49] <djustice> Guest92207: np :)
[17:49] <djustice> Guest92207: welcome to kubuntu
[17:49] <Guest92207> thks
[17:50] <Guest92207> ubuntu is the best!
[17:50] <djustice> chakra is the best sir. ;) meanwhile, until you gain wizardly skills. *ubuntu is best.
[17:51] <ridin> i heard gentoo and arch was for advanced
[17:51] <Guest92207> i see a blue screen asking for language
[17:51] <ridin> hmmm
[17:51] <urgen> all linux is for advanced
[17:51] <ridin> go to your language
[17:51] <urgen> but things are still changing
[17:51] <Guest92207> i selected enlish and now i see a another screen i should slect install right?
[17:52] <urgen> it is always a good idea to be capable of not letting technology push you around
[17:52] <djustice> Guest92207: no.
[17:52] <ridin> Guest92207: does it say Try Kubuntu out without installing and install kubuntu?
[17:52] <Guest92207> yes
[17:52] <djustice> Guest92207: try it first. just to see if it works with your computer.
[17:52] <Guest92207> ok
[17:53] <Guest92207> i just see a black screen with nothing on it now
[17:53] <djustice> ridin: they are. but they take days to configure. chakra is preconfigured. like ubuntu. except based on simplicity rather than inclusive complexity.
[17:53] <djustice> Guest92207: wait ;)
[17:53] <Guest92207> ok
[17:54] <ridin> yes, wait because kubuntu is a bit "chunky"
[17:55] <guest135> someone has a few moments help me fixing a dpkg error?
[17:55] <djustice> heh. itz the 4.4.3 stuff. and the cron jobs. and the debian 'way' that are chunky. kubuntu is just a few metapackages..
[17:55] <djustice> guest135: maybe.. what is it?
[17:55] <guest135> alright
[17:55] <guest135> its an uncofigured package
[17:56] <Guest92207> the install guide says: The Ubuntu installer will overwrite your Master Boot Record and you will later be forced to recreate it.
[17:56] <Guest92207> is that true
[17:56] <djustice> "sudo dpkg --configure -a"
[17:56] <guest135> error is quite long, where should i post it?
[17:56] <djustice> Guest92207: no. at the end of the install, it installs grub to the master boot record. automatic like.
[17:56] <djustice> guest135: pastebin.ca
[17:56] <guest135> k tnx
[17:58] <Guest92207> thanks djustice, i appreciate the help, peace
[17:58] <guest135> pastebin is not responding, ill just paste the last few lines here
[17:58] <guest135> dpkg: error processing qt4-qmake (--configure):
[17:58] <guest135>  subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 2
[17:59] <djustice> guest135: hm. thats no help. try pastebin.com, i need the command you ran too. and the goal in question.
[17:59] <djustice> kde-devel? aspiring qt-devel?
[18:00] <guest135> well its basically every command i run involving dpkg
[18:00] <guest135> like apt-get ...
[18:01] <djustice> guest135: ah.. so.. pastebin.com the output of 'sudo dpkg --configure -a'?
[18:01] <guest135> gonna paste at pastebin
[18:02] <ridin> paste.ubuntu.com may help too
[18:03] <djustice> ya. ive always been a pastebin.ca fan.. the custom account/syntax stuff is kewl. ;P and kde's pastebin widget can drag'n'drop there. and to imagebin, filebin, etc.
[18:04] <guest135> ok its this one
[18:04] <guest135> http://pastebin.com/9cwy1Hq3
[18:05] <djustice> kk. one sec.
[18:07] <djustice> guest135: kk. do this. 'cd /var/cache/apt/packages; sudo dpkg --force-all -i ./qt4-qmake*'
[18:07] <djustice> somebody made a bad qt4-qmake pkg.. ;D.. or you can just keep apt-get updateing until they fix it..
[18:08] <guest135> there is no packages below apt
[18:11] <djustice> guest135: hrm.. idr the name.. i havent used kubuntu in ages.. its somewhere under cache/apt tho..
[18:11] <djustice> archives. thats it.
[18:13] <djustice> me and dpkg dont jive... or the update-alternatives stuff... or the built-in cronjob stuff.. or the broken/busted pkgz.. or the hacks..
[18:13] <djustice> the whole stack is wrong. its for servers not desktops. dpkg stacks must be -seriously- solidified before distrobution...
[18:13] <djustice> mumblemumble..
[18:14] <guest135> well i tried the command above
[18:14] <djustice> guest135: same error?
[18:14] <guest135> the error is... gimme a sec
[18:15] <djustice> you may have to edit the status file by hand...
[18:15] <guest135> you mean /var/lib/dpkg/status?
[18:16] <djustice> i do..
[18:16] <djustice> http://www.khattam.info/2009/08/04/solved-subprocess-pre-removal-script-returned-error-exit-status-2-error/ <- a guide on how to fix it.
[18:16] <djustice> what did --force-all say tho?
[18:17] <guest135> says: cannot acces archive: no such file or directory
[18:17] <guest135> when tried with ./qt4-qmake* (--install)
[18:20] <guest135> the status for qt4-qmake looks as the one in the link above, i'm gonna try that out
[18:22] <djustice> guest135: hm.. id use --force-all first.. but you must find the actual qt4-qmake deb file.. which i dont guess is in your apt/archives cache...
[18:22] <djustice> guest135: the status way is more of a hack than a solution..
[18:23] <guest135> and what about that postinst script mentioned in the first error?
[18:24] <guest135> i see there is one in /var/lib/info called qt4-qmake.postinst
[18:24] <guest135> but its empty
[18:25] <guest135> may that be involved?
[18:25] <[1]choppa> hi, i have a friend of mine on KDE 4.4.4 et he has a problem connecting on wifi; sometimes it works; sometimes it stays on 'activation' and asks the password again; it's the same with knetworkmanager, nm-applet, and wicd, so for now i'm staying on knetworkmanager, could someone help please?
[18:28] <ridin> kwallet?
[18:29] <[1]choppa> ?
[18:29] <djustice> guest135: probably not.. i think you may have just got a corrupted qmake pkg from your mirror..
[18:29] <djustice> guest135: you can probably download the new pkg from somewhere (online), and --force-all -i on it to fix everything.
[18:30] <djustice> instead of mucking about in your status file..
[18:30] <guest135> ok im gonna try that out
[18:30] <guest135> thanks alot djustice
[18:32] <DarthFrog> Hmm, there's a new kernel upgrade today.
[18:37] <Renovatio> there's a way to know wich daemons are running on my pc?
[18:38] <DarthFrog> Renovatio: "ps auxww | less" will show you all processes running on your machine.
[18:40] <Renovatio> DarthFrog, thank you. do you know if there is a daemon for audio?
[18:43] <DarthFrog> Phonon or pulseaudio.
[18:44] <DarthFrog> In my experience, pulseaudio causes more problems than its worth.
[18:45] <DarthFrog> Audio in Linux is a mess, a real dog's breakfast.
[18:49] <Renovatio> ok, cause i have a problem, audio don't works :)
[18:57] <DarthFrog> Use System Settings/Multimedia to try different audio devices.
[18:58] <DarthFrog> Also use Kmix to play with the various volume settings.  Check that your output channels aren't muted.
[19:16] <PasNox> hi
[19:17] <PasNox> i encounter strange problems with kubuntu 10.04
[19:17] <PasNox> in the kpackagekit, i deactivate "auto install system update"
[19:17] <PasNox> but the system still persists to install some system component itself
[19:18] <PasNox> like openoffice update, and just right now kernel update
[19:18] <PasNox> is it normal ?
[19:18] <PasNox> it's strange because it does not auto install upate, just some one
[19:19] <PasNox> auto install all updates*
[19:20] <Khaotic> are there any none java ides?
[19:21] <PasNox> eclipse
[19:36] <PasNox> nobody have an idea for my problem ?
[19:39] <oxymoron> Can someone help me solve this problem http://pastebin.com/AFrcP5Ae - I cannot remove or install the packages somehow, I just want them GONE NOW!
[19:40] <oxymoron> I tried remove the lang .mo files but it didnt help.
[19:51] <ridin> oxymoron, try using bleachbit
[19:51] <oxymoron> ridin: bleachbit? :S Isnt that for removing files?
[19:51] <ridin> uh yes, isn't that what you want?
[19:52] <oxymoron> And then I cannot use bleachbit, because I cannot install anything until I solved current problem xD DOH! :D
[19:52] <ridin> usually a restart fixes those problems
[19:52] <ridin> !aptlock | oxymoron
[19:52] <oxymoron> ridin: Eh no? I want to remove an application, or well its files but I dont know which files to remove.
[19:52] <ridin> hmmmmmmm
[19:53] <ridin> sudo apt-get remove application then sudo apt-get autoremove
[19:53] <oxymoron> ridin: http://pastebin.com/AFrcP5Ae
[19:53] <oxymoron> Yes, but its not possible until I removed that FREAKING (******************) error in dpkg.
[19:53] <ridin> well, i'm only 13
[19:53] <ridin> but i want to help
[19:53] <oxymoron> I cannot use apt-get at all.
[19:54] <oxymoron> Yes, I like help no matter age, thanks for trying :)
[19:54] <ridin> i think a restart shall help
[19:54] <ridin> i've had problems related to that
[19:55] <oxymoron> No restart wont help, I tried this yesterday so a reboot has been done already.
[19:56] <oxymoron> The problem is aptitude and dpkg, I would like to kill the programmers made it because it SUCKS!
[19:56] <oxymoron> If ONE thing breaks everything breaks.
[19:57] <oxymoron> And mostly it isnt user made breaks, its package incompabilities thats not solved. Its pathetic.
[19:57] <ridin> hmmmmm
[20:00] <gorgonizer> oxymoron: you can do   sudo dpkg -i --force-verwrite /var/cache/apt/archives/kdevplatform1-libs_1.0.0-1ubuntu3~lucid1~ppa3_amd64.deb /var/cache/apt/archives/kdevelop-data_4%3a4.0.0-2ubuntu1~lucid~ppa1_all.deb in that instance I believe..
[20:01] <gorgonizer> *--force-overwrite
[20:02] <ridin> dang, i was about to type that
[20:02] <ridin> you win
[20:02] <ridin> i'm not worthy
[20:02]  * ridin bows
[20:03] <gorgonizer> I am also unworthy, just I have used that command more than I care to admit :)
[20:03] <oxymoron> gorgonizer: Thanks, got same solution in another channel at the same time "cd /var/cache/apt/archives/;  sudo dpkg --force-overwrite -i kdevelop-data*.deb;  sudo dpkg --force-overwrite -i kdevplatform1-libs*.deb"
[20:04] <gorgonizer> oxymoron: as I usually use bleeding edge packages (such as the 4.5 RC 1 packages) I am more than familiar with that command :)
[20:05] <oxymoron> gorgonizer: I have been using that command sometimes earlier when got similar problem with dependecy lock, moment22 :P And I am using RC1 myself ;)
[20:06] <gorgonizer> excellent news :)
[20:06] <oxymoron> Still QT4.7 not working with video + OpenGL + Ciaro Dock ... thats uhm just sad, known bug since ages and nobody cares.
[20:07] <gorgonizer> never used Cario dock..
[20:09] <ridin> docky!
[20:13] <oxymoron> ridin: Tried them all, the only one that works best is Cairo Dock :P But then CD isnt working as I want it ... almost only xD
[20:31] <Kiry> major stupid question: can I burn the Kubuntu distro onto a CD on my Win7 box?
[20:31] <Pici> Kiry: Sure.
[20:31] <amichair> Kiry: sure.
[20:31] <Kiry> *yes!!*
[20:31] <Kiry> um, HOW?
[20:31] <Kiry> a friend installed kubuntu on my laptop before and I don't know how he did it
[20:32] <jakson> what?
[20:32] <amichair> Kiry: using whatever cd burning software you use on windows 7 - they all have a 'burn image' option
[20:32] <Kiry> my Thinkpad has kubuntu 8.04
[20:32] <jakson> ok and?
[20:32] <jakson> 9.04
[20:32] <Kiry> do I need to back up anything on the laptop first?
[20:32] <Pici> Kiry:  If you don't have a tool to burn ISOs, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BurningIsoHowto#Windows
[20:32] <jakson> yes
[20:32] <Kiry> noo, I don't think I did the latest update before 10
[20:33] <ridin> wait what
[20:33] <ridin> Kiry, Windows 7 has a burning option
[20:33] <jakson> windows xp its ok
[20:33] <Kiry> it does? awesome!
[20:33] <jakson> linux ubuntu 9.03
[20:34] <Kiry> I want the 32 bit, not netbook version, correct?
[20:34] <ridin> kiry, we aren't you
[20:34] <ridin> if you have a small screen then the netbook version might to fine
[20:34] <Kiry> I know none of my boxes are 64 bit
[20:35] <Kiry> 15" screen
[20:35] <ridin> ok, 32bit then
[21:12] <vbgunz> I have an nvidia card. I use the binary without a problem *but* there is something about the driver I fallback on that gets the framebuffer exactly right. if I don't use the nvidia binary, my framebuffer is at 1920x1080. I can never achieve this with the binary. How can I use the binary yet somehow use the other driver specifically for the framebuffer if this makes any sense?
[21:15] <vbgunz> gonna try some stuff
[21:26] <phpdev4> holas
[22:22] <Reallycool> my sound's messed up, I was given some audio related error, and now the first second of all system notification sounds doesn't play.
[22:33] <Reallycool> is my cursor supposed to be a hand when it's on the desktop?
[22:36] <ranmaruhibikiya> I don't think so
[22:37] <ranmaruhibikiya> maybe cheking the cursor theme
[22:37] <Reallycool> where's that? I don't see it in appearance.
[22:37] <ranmaruhibikiya> is in keyboard and mouse
[22:38] <ranmaruhibikiya> then mouse, and theme
[22:39] <nox> hi
[22:39] <ranmaruhibikiya> hi
[22:40] <Reallycool> still the hands! my guess is... I have no clue, a restart will probably fix it, but it will likely come back after some time
[22:41] <Reallycool> before I restart, one other thing. The widget download menu isn't working for me. it shows a blank list.
[22:42] <ranmaruhibikiya> Reallycool, try change the theme
[22:43] <Reallycool> for the mouse or widget problem? I already tried that for the mouse, and I don't see how that would help the widget issue...
[22:44] <ranmaruhibikiya> for the mouse issue
[22:44] <Reallycool> already tried it...
[22:45] <ranmaruhibikiya> for the widget, is asking for permission to access to the conection?
[22:46] <Reallycool> no
[22:46] <ranmaruhibikiya> because when I install one, ask for permission
[22:46] <ranmaruhibikiya> to connect, then appear the list
[22:47] <Reallycool> the one time it did work, I don't think it asked, either
[23:09] <_tony> does kubuntu offer a live cd ?
[23:29] <Guest52229> Hello?
[23:35] <ranmaruhibikiya> _tony : http://www.kubuntu.org/getkubuntu/download
[23:45] <gmariano> Hi! I question about upgrades...Will KDE 4.4.5 eventually make it into kubuntu 10.04? Or the only way to get it is adding kubuntu-ppa?
[23:46] <Erthe> Can anyone tell me what package to install to get the contents of KDE Extragear?
[23:54] <Torch> Erthe: many
[23:54] <Torch> Erthe: each app has its own package.
[23:54] <Torch> Erthe: and that's really a good thing
[23:54] <Torch> Erthe: what app do you want to install?
[23:55] <Erthe> Oh, you know what?  I was looking at the wrong version.  I just updated to 4.4.5 (saw 4.5) and the KDE site states that in 4.5 Konqueror will be able to swap in the WebKit engine.
[23:55] <Erthe> So really, I just have to wait til it's released.  :D
[23:55] <Erthe> Or use rekonq
