=== don is now known as don_jr [00:26] I am having some trouble getting my display set right. No matter what I add to xorg.conf it changes nothing. [00:26] I haev an old nvidia MX4000 with the proprietary drivers installed and a Samsung SyncMaster 731b connected with analog cable [00:32] I just noticed I'm being port scanned by a freenode server. [00:32] oic [00:36] don_jr: Which driver version? [00:36] 97 [00:36] which I'm fairly certain is correct for the mx4000 [00:36] Yea [00:37] and if you open the nvidia display settings manager deal? [00:37] i have not tried to reconfigure xorg, beings it doesn't appear that the xorg.conf is even being looked at. [00:37] I've checked in it, it offers only 2 resolutions, one at 320x and one at 600x [00:37] and the ref rate is at 54.4 htz and no option to change it [00:39] hmm [00:39] I fought with an nvidia card for a while this morning [00:40] I haven't used the card since before the xorg update but it seemed to respect the xorg.conf after I rewrote it manually [00:40] was an older 7600 [00:41] hmmm [00:42] going to try a xorg reconf, I'll be back after the restart [00:42] maybe not...the command did literally nothing...that's odd [00:45] now why would sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg do nothing? [00:52] just stupid wonderment, does the order things show up in teh xorg.conf matter? i.e. monitor before screen section? [00:52] I think so.. I'd have to google it though [00:53] I'll change it around and see if it help [00:56] gonna restart to set changes, we'll see how it goes. === don is now known as Don_jr [00:59] No help...darn it === mmazur_ is now known as suburbanNrd === urli is now known as netbung [01:08] well crud.. it's someting to do with xorg.conf i'm sure, about to pastebin it [01:17] A [01:24] Well crud.

(K)ubuntu releases only every two years a new version, so they can update, fix the system to become it more stable? Or i understand that wrong and (k)ubuntu becomes every 6 month a new version too? [12:03] ubusa: kubuntu and ubuntu release a new version every 6 mounths [12:03] ubusa: they support the released version for a while though [12:04] Ah... so only support to catch some business customers. I understand. [12:04] Thanks [12:04] ubusa: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases [12:04] ubusa: they dont jsut support businesses, they support every version up to its end of life [12:05] ubusa: the current version is known as a long term support version and will be supported untill 2013 on the desktop (2015) on the server [12:08] At the moment i'm not sure what to choose. I've used ubuntu and was happy with that. But now i see that's gnome is far away from what... i call productive workspace. So i tested KDE and... meanwhile it only one times crash. If this don't happens often, i really to interested to switch to Kubuntu. [12:08] But in the Internet all saying that Mandriva ist more userfriendly then kubuntu... so i'm not sure. === A_ is now known as nisha_newbie [12:09] anyone from India...i need to configure BSNL broadband and need help hee [12:11] ubusa: i dont see all the internet saying that :) havent tryed mandriva yet but kubuntu is one i prefere since more things just seem to work for it (at least for me). I suggest you try them both out (i beleave that mandriva have a live cd, i know kubuntu do so try that out and see which you like more before installing) [12:13] What is with synatpic. Brings this package manager something unter kubuntu (kde)? I readed that the kpackackagekit not so good as synaptic for gnome. Is that true? Can i use synaptic for kubuntu insteed of kpackagekit? [12:14] ubusa: i don't see why people don't like kpackagekit that much... its perfectly usable here... but yes you can use gnome software under kde [12:14] oh i love this notification dialog with the view button *smilie* [12:15] James147: That means Synaptic can handle kubuntu sources too without problems? [12:15] ubusa: kpackagekit and synaptic both use the same repos :) [12:16] ubusa: although in the next version of kubuntu there is promise of intergration of an app store like thing into kpackagekit [12:17] James147: Ah... i understand. Then i will install Kubuntu... i don't want to learn a new distrib. [12:17] ubusa: ubuntu and kubuntu are the same distro... they jsut use different desktop envrioments [12:18] ubusa: you can install them on the same system be installing either "kubuntu-desktop" or "ubuntu-desktop" depending on which you started with [12:18] ubusa: then switch which you use in kdm or kdm (the login manager) [12:18] James147: Yes... but if i now will test Mandriva i've to learn some new happenings and commands which are different to (k)ubuntu. [12:19] ubusa: they are both linux so have alot of the same core commands :) [12:20] James147: For you :) But not for me... how using ubuntu only two weeks. === A_ is now known as Guest61624 === Guest61624 is now known as nisha_newbie [12:26] how do i remove auto eth0 default connexn...i want to set one of my own connection manually and i want to remove auto eht0 since i use PPPoE [12:35] Strange... why KDESudo don't accept my user password? [12:36] I've set a root password to after it don't let me access my ntfs partitions. But this password it don't accept too. [12:38] Can it be that it don't support special characters? [12:43] ubusa: probally, i would try apassword without spical characters [12:43] ubusa: also it is advised not to give root a password [12:43] Why not? [12:44] A root without password? That sounds crazy. [12:44] ubusa: you dont need to, you can do everything through sudo if you need to (even login as root with -i) [12:45] ubusa: root with a password is a security consern, quite a few mecheines get hacked into by weak root passwords, if root dosent have one then it cant be hacked [12:45] Funny... KDESudo don't support special characters- [12:45] ubusa: and since sudo dose eveything you really need for root there is no need for a root password [12:45] With no special character... it works [12:49] Why can anyone hack the root when it has a password... and when it has no password it's unhackable? Sorry... confused me. I learnd to give the adiministrator on every machine a strong password. But don't use this account. I don't want to use the root account, sudo is enough for me. [12:49] But... why can anyone hacking root better, when it has a password. And why not when no password set? [12:49] ubusa: when there is no password (not a empty password) login through that user is disabled [12:50] Ahhh... that means... if i now delete the password again linux will disable the root account again? [12:51] ubusa: there should be a way to remove the password and disable its login give me a min to figure it out :) but yes, if you dont need to login to root then no password with disabled login is best [12:52] Interesting. You don't have to search... when i really need it i find it. [12:52] But good to know. [12:52] Where can send we bug reports? (like the kdesudo special letters thing)? [12:52] ubusa: looks like you can disable the root acount in the user managment in system settings (probally under advanced) [12:53] ubusa: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kdesudo/+bug/400851 [12:53] Every freaking click i made with kde make it more interesting for me.

[14:12] BluesKaj: flashplugin-nonfree: This package is a transitional package that can safely be removed after you installed flashplugin-installer. [14:12] BluesKaj: in lucid [14:12] well using the flash plugin-nonfree removes the offending flash version from what I've seen [14:13] err instyalling rather [14:13] BluesKaj: so should -installer since -nonfree just installs that [14:15] yeah , i guess we're saying the same thing , but just differently...the nonfree looks at the kernel source and installs the proper version.. that's how it was explained to me [14:16] BluesKaj: then so should -installer... in lucid they are renaming -nonfree to -installer so they left -nonfree but now it jsut installs -installer so that people that are upgrading get -installer and not a missing package [14:17] BluesKaj: thats what "transitional packages" are... essentially a pointer to the new package [14:17] yeah, but the thing is , it works afaik [14:18] BluesKaj: :) it will work, just the same way as installing the -installer directly... sorry for being so stubberen about it... eveutually nonfree will be removed from te repos (probally maverick?) [14:21] James147, both flashplugin-installer and nonfree are still listed in the package manager (I prefer synaptic) [14:21] for lucid [14:22] BluesKaj: they will be... but -nonfree is an empty package that depends on -installer... thats what a transitional package is, it depends on the newpackage so that it gets installed on a upgrade form an older system [14:23] BluesKaj: even the discription states you can safly remove -nonfree after installer is installled [14:23] yes , I understand that,but nonfree is still a legit package that does what it used to do, if it doesn't work in maverick , then that's for the ppl at ubuntu+1 [14:25] BluesKaj: see you at -offtopic :) better to disscuss it there === dan_ is now known as Dan_L [15:36] Does anyone know how to set up syntax highlighting in kate?

[17:15] i haven't run both in quite some time myself [17:16] Barridus, , i think your login prompt at a tty is a "leftover bug" after using the tty for whatever reason ..I had that bug for a while on karmic, but forgotten how to cure it. :( [17:16] o/ [17:17] did the login screen change, Nick_Meister? [17:17] yep [17:17] its kdm now alright [17:17] all blue and stuff [17:18] BluesKaj: tty? would that show as a kdm password prompt? it's not in CLI [17:19] Barridus, no tty login prompt first ? [17:19] so what should i do now [17:20] ok Barridus , sorry , I misread [17:20] BluesKaj: to make sure i'm with the lingo, isn't tty the plain jane cli? [17:20] yup, no X [17:20] yeah this is in x heheh [17:21] right [17:21] i think i found something that might help, apparently it's related to the ntfs partition [17:21] ? [17:21] maybe i botched the fstab [17:21] W7 Barridus ? [17:21] nope, xp [17:21] hmmm [17:22] that i never use anymore anyways hah === dfrey_ is now known as dfrey [17:22] well, I have W7 on this laptop , to keep up withj [17:22] friends who need help [17:23] man an here i was really excited to try out kde :( [17:24] i'm not sure what to suggest Nick_Meister :/ [17:24] i'm no superpro though, i did have that problemm myself and that fixed it [17:25] my computer-phobic lead singer is having issues with his outboard drive that contains all his music and if he rips a cd and it doesn't go to the outboard music folder he gets real frustrated. [17:25] you did say you were picking KDE at the login session right? [17:25] yes [17:25] in the KDM one [17:26] it goes to gnome fine [17:26] yes the kdm [17:28] hmm, maybe a setting in /home/yourusername/.kde is borked [17:29] try logging into gnome, using nautilus the file manager to see hidden files, and renaming the .kde folder to like .kde_backup and trying the process again? [17:30] hello, i have a problem with QTM. Can someone help me? [17:31] i will be right back myself, seeing if i got rid of that phantom kdesudo password nagging [17:33] I'm trying to add a network printer. I have used it in the past, but it's not in my list of printers and it seems like my ability to add printers is more limited than it was in the past. Perhaps I'm missing a package now? This screenshot shows what I'm seeing http://chubby.dyndns.org/~dfrey/printing.png [17:33] did not help [17:33] :( [17:37] :/ [17:37] :( [17:38] did you ever do a distro upgrade (like karmic to lucid) at some point? [17:38] or was the ubuntu lucid a fresh install [17:39] ok so [17:39] i looked at .xsession errors file [17:39] No. I first cleaned my computer. Then I Ubuntu 10.04 on my computer installed. [17:40]
