[00:13] <Quaxir> Heydo, anyone still awake here :D?
[00:16] <James147> Quaxir: yup
[00:18] <Quaxir> goodie.. Could you help me in an issue with grub after installing Kubuntu?
[00:19] <James147> Quaxir: only if you say what the issue is
[00:21] <Quaxir> James147, After installing and rebooting computer grub tried to load but gave error screen: "error: no such device <numbers,letters>" and then console-type line: "grub rescue>"
[00:22] <James147> Quaxir: what version of grub? (and kubuntu)?
[00:22] <Quaxir> james147, I'm not 100% sure which version of grub I have :S. Installed it from Kubuntu 10.14 -liveCD
[00:23] <James147> Quaxir: then grub 2 :)
[00:24] <Quaxir> James147, ookey :). I booted back to liveCD. or should I get back to "grub rescue"-thing?
[00:24] <James147> Quaxir: you could try reinstalling grub from a live cd: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2#Reinstalling%20GRUB%202
[00:25] <Quaxir> James147, ookey.. I'll take a look
[00:28] <Quaxir> James147, takes a while..accidentally pressed "ctrl+alt+backspace" =/
[00:30] <James147> Quaxir: didn't think that did anything anymore :S
[00:30] <James147> Quaxir: no wait thats the other one :)
[00:31] <Quaxir> James147, heh.. I thought so too.
[00:39] <Quaxir> James147, finally getting to liveCD desktop again..
[00:51] <Quaxir> James147, installed grub and got output: "no errors", rebooted and still that same "error: no such device: 9050cb...097d." =/
[00:53] <Quaxir> James147, was that intended to happen or did I do something wrong :P?
[00:53] <James147> Quaxir: can you pastebin the output of "sudo blkid -c /dev/null" with the full device id in the error
[00:54] <Quaxir> James147, sure. I'll boot back to liveCD
[01:05] <Quaxir> James147, http://pastebin.com/hXyDbj3j there it is
[01:06] <Quaxir> James147, was it right one or?
[01:07] <James147> Quaxir: Well 8d4820...d8a5 isent the same as 9050cb...097d :S
[01:08] <James147> Quaxir: try doing it this way... https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2#Recover Grub 2 via LiveCD
[01:08] <Quaxir> James147, ookey. I'll take a look
[01:09] <James147> Quaxir: spicifically the "update-grub" part... that should regen the list of oses hopefully with the right device ids
[01:09] <James147> Quaxir: don't think there is much need to do the install part... but it shouldent hurt
[01:10] <Quaxir> James147, ookey. Well as I'm pretty newcomer with this I'll do it step-by-step so I won't miss anything
[01:12] <Quaxir> James147, that "Now mount the rest of your devices and some other things needed in the chroot", do I need to mount all of my hdd's or just those which are listed? (3 ones below that text)
[01:12] <Quaxir> James147, in case you're looking at that guide :P
[01:13] <James147> Quaxir: just what it says
[01:15] <Quaxir> James147, do I have to do anything for "/etc/default/grub" or just open it, save and close?
[01:16] <James147> Quaxir: you dont have to (if you havent edited it then you dont need to save it)
[01:18] <Quaxir> James147, after that "update-grub", when it comes to that I should install GRUB2 to MBR with command "grub-install /dev/sda", do I change that sda to that where bootloader is? (sde)
[01:19] <naught101> is there a way to make my laptop NOT suspend if certain programs are running?
[01:19] <James147> Quaxir: I beleave so yes
[01:22] <Quaxir> James147, I suppose it's time for reboot and see what it says now?
[01:23] <James147> Quaxir: and hope for the best :D
[01:24] <Quaxir> James147, *sigh*.. still that same "error: no such device: ..."
[01:25] <James147> Quaxir: do you get the grub menu? or stright to the error?
[01:25] <Quaxir> James147, straight to the error. No sign of grub menu
[01:26] <James147> Quaxir: try booting while holding the shift key (that should display the menu if its just hidden
[01:26] <Quaxir> ok
[01:29] <Quaxir> James147, when booting and holding shift-key it just flashes "_" and nothing else appears
[01:31] <Quaxir> James147, hm.. now I got "GRUB loading." and then that same error message below it
[01:32] <James147> Quaxir: :( try folling the previous guide again... this time during the edit /etc/default/grub stage add the line "GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_UUID="true""  to it (without quotes execpt for the "true" part.. that needs quotes around it)
[01:32] <James147> Quaxir: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2#/etc/default/grub%20(file) will tell you more about the options you can set in it
[01:34] <James147> Quaxir: afraid if that dosnt work I am not sure what else to do :( ... only other thing I would try is to try installing it to /dev/sda if possible (a 10gig partition at the end of the drive should do) or on the disk with windows (if you have windows)... but thoses are just last ditch attempts to get something to work
[01:35] <Quaxir> James147, ok.. I'll try adding that line to /etc/default/grub
[01:36] <Quaxir> James147, I have windows installation on my comp. Hopefully it won't screw up my windows aswell :D
[01:38] <James147> Quaxir: it shouldn't if you shrink the drive (best done from windows, you can boot windows by running the recovery disk and reinstalling the bootloader... there should be guids online as to howto do that)
[01:38] <James147> Quaxir: one other thing you might want to try is to install grub to the drive with windows on... or what ever drive has the MBR on
[01:39] <James147> Quaxir: but I cannot really help beyond that...
[01:39] <Quaxir> James147, now have to ask.. Isn't MBR in automatically on the same hdd/partition as bootloader is?
[01:40] <James147> Quaxir: dosent have to be I dont think... but I do not know that much about it
[01:40] <James147> Quaxir: either way try it with the option first... only if that fails try other things :)
[01:41] <James147> Quaxir: I have to go now, will be on tomorrow if you still need help (although allot earlier :)  ) bye and good luck
[01:42] <Quaxir> James147, ookey. Thanks for your help. :)

[10:47] <fots> hey guys, is there a way to do full row select in Dolphin?
[10:49] <kpkarl> fots, yes, select the first item, then hold shift and then click the last item
[10:50] <kpkarl> oh wait, its hold shift, then click the first item, and then also click the last item. Sorry for the mixup
[10:56] <fots> kpkarl: thanks wil try now
[10:56] <fots> :)
[10:56] <fots> no worries
[10:56] <kpkarl> your welcome, glad to help
[10:56] <fots> actually mate, i'm not actually trying to select all
[10:57] <fots> what i'm after is a full row select, e.g. you can click to the right of a name and it selects it
[10:57] <fots> lol :)
[10:57] <kpkarl> I'm not sure what you mean
[10:57] <fots> a bit hard to explain, sorta like windows
[10:57] <fots> oh lemme see if i can find a screenie
[10:57] <fots> thanks heaps mate :D
[10:58] <kpkarl> ok
[10:58] <quaxir> hmm.. just a question, but what is that program/gadget in Kubuntu liveCD which makes that "Desktop screen" to my desktop? I'd like to have that in actual hdd-version aswell :)
[10:59] <fots> e.g. http://www.mydigitallife.info/wp-content/uploads/2008/06/hack-windows-seven-rfm-396x300.jpg see how the whole row is selected for explorer.exe?
[11:00] <kpkarl> oh, click the details button
[11:01] <kpkarl> quaxir, do you mean the "show desktop" widget?
[11:02] <quaxir> kpkarl, not 100% sure but if I saw it I'd recognize it
[11:03] <fots> kpkarl: already done the details view buddy, but when i select a file, it doesn't select the entire row, only the filename itself
[11:03] <fots> does that make sense?
[11:03] <fots> sorry if i'm unclear?
[11:04] <kpkarl> fots, yes it makes sense. But I'm not sure how to make it do that. Sorry
[11:05] <kpkarl> quaxir, do you mean this button: http://img695.imageshack.us/img695/4131/kubuntu1004mainmenu.png
[11:06] <fots> no worries mate
[11:06] <quaxir> kpkarl, actually I mean that rectangle in upper left corner
[11:06] <fots> thanks for attempting to help me anyway, really appreciate it
[11:06] <fots> :)
[11:07] <kpkarl> quaxir, you mean the desktop folder? Do you want it as the desktop, or as a window like that?
[11:07] <quaxir> kpkarl, that window itself
[11:08] <kpkarl> ok, right-click on the desktop. Then click add widgets. the widget you are looking for is called folder view. Just drag it onto your desktop
[11:10] <quaxir> kpkarl, oh thank you :). I'm pretty new with Kubuntu (and linuxes aswell :D), had a fight with GRUB last night to get GRUB itself loading
[11:11] <kpkarl> quaxir, your welcome. I'm glad to help

[12:03] <sobczyk> hi, I switched from a 2 monitor setup (laptop + external one) to just laptop, now i dont have the main panel visible, is there a way to bring it back?
[12:03] <sobczyk> besides when switching to only laptop I get the view from the other screen (that does not have a bar)
[12:05] <well_laid_lawn> sobczyk: is there a file /etc/X11/xorg.conf that mentions two monitors?
[12:06] <sobczyk> well_laid_lawn: two monitors one screen
[12:07] <sobczyk> and I have no idea how to bring back the main bar from the non-visible area
[12:09] <well_laid_lawn> if xorg.conf is set for two screens move it to a diff name and let the system autoconfigure for the one monitor
[12:09] <sobczyk> it seems when I switch to laptop only I get the wrong monitor setup (1680x1050) instead of the laptop native, so some areas are not visible
[12:09] <sobczyk> shouldn't kde handle that on the fly?
[12:09] <sobczyk> I disconnect the external and just the external area is switched off?
[12:10] <well_laid_lawn> it is more an X thing - if you name two monitors in a config file...
[12:11] <sobczyk> is there a way to do multiple monitors on proprietary drivers without xorg.conf?
[12:12] <well_laid_lawn> http://wiki.debian.org/XStrikeForce/HowToRandR12   might give a clue
[12:12] <well_laid_lawn> I never bother with two monitors
[12:31] <tumas> can anyone help me to find a software for linux, which can automatically search for album covers only by the artist-name and music-title?
[12:32] <tumas> i only know of the amarok-plugin, but it takes years if i have to search for every song seperate
[12:37] <tumas> no music fans around here? ;)
[12:47] <daedaluz> tumas: what do you mean by separately?
[12:56] <tumas> got it? ;)
[13:03] <venkat_4> Hi room
[13:04] <venkat_4> I have a query..
[13:04] <venkat_4> Will gtalk can be installed in Ubuntu?
[13:08] <tumas> http://www.google.com/talk/otherclients.html: only for windows so far
[13:08] <wastrel> google hates linux
[13:08] <tumas> ^^
[13:09] <tumas> but pidgin obviously supports google talk
[13:13] <well_laid_lawn> google doesn't hate linux - there's   http://www,google.com/linux
[13:14] <Pici> Anything that supports custom xmpp servers (jabber) supports google talk
[13:17] <tumas> my recorded radio songs are still looking forward to some album cover art :P help! ;)
[13:27] <avihay> venkat_4: probably not, atleast not directly
[13:28] <avihay> you can try to wine the winxp version
[13:33] <judgen> How do i get dekorator for kde3 in lucid installed? only the kde4 package is installed.

[16:13] <aguitel> how restore default desktop folders ?
[16:15] <James147> aguitel: can you explain abit more... are you trying to get the folder widget back onto the desktop?
[16:16] <aguitel> James147, yes but it is my /home folder
[16:17] <James147> aguitel: if the folder view widget is already on your desktop you can configure the folder it should by right clicking it > folder view settings
[16:18] <aguitel> James147, i will try

[16:33] <solifugus> I c.. It's just sitting there spinning no matter where I fish to..
[16:33] <James147> solifugus: try it with the sftp:// protocal if you can
[16:34] <solifugus> no diff with sftp
[16:36] <solifugus> my konqueror or kioslave must be foo bar'd... iduno..
[16:55] <quaxir> Hello.. it's me again, but.. does anyone have an idea what's going on with my Kubuntu as it resets my screen resolution back to default every time I reboot?
[16:58] <James147> quaxir: what graphics driver are you using?
[16:59] <quaxir> james147, I'm not sure actually. but after installin nvidia-settings (I have nvidia graphics card), I get notice message: "You do not appear to be using the NVIDIA X driver. etcetc"
[17:01] <James147> quaxir: then your using the open source nvidia driver :)... think the proprity ones works better atm... you can install them using jockey-kde ("hardware drivers" in the menu)
[17:02] <quaxir> james147, and remove that nvidia-settings?
[17:02] <James147> quaxir: that should enable the drivers as well so you will need to restart x after they are installed (logout and there should be a restart x server option in one of the menus)
[17:02] <James147> quaxir: it will jsut be reinstalled with the drivers
[17:03] <quaxir> james147, ookey. I'll try :)
[17:38] <quaxir> ps. if anyone said anything about that being unavailable to save xorg.conf, I didn't see it because of dc
[17:39] <James147> quaxir: didnt see that message ^^
[17:40] <quaxir> James147, oh.. I'll re-send it
[17:40] <James147> quaxir: but my guess is that you are not sunning nvidia-settings as root (you need to inorder to save the xorg.conf file
[17:40] <James147> s/sunning/running/
[17:41] <quaxir> James147, Thanks :), resolution problem is fixed. However now I'm  unavailable to change anything in that nvidia-settings -program.  Reports an error because not available to save xorg.conf
[17:41] <quaxir> James147, Thanks :), resolution problem is fixed. However now I'm unavailable to change anything in that nvidia-settings -program. Reports an error because not available to save xorg.conf
[17:41] <James147> quaxir: run it as root "kdesudo nvidia-settings"
[17:42] <quaxir> James147, Thanks :). Resolution problem is fixed. However I'm now unavailable to change anything in that nvidia-settings -program. Reports an error because not availabe to save xorg.conf
[17:42] <James147> ^^
[17:42] <quaxir> Sorry everybody about spam =(
[17:43]  * urgen suns his video card for better resolution... does it need sunglasses now?
[17:43] <urgen> oh I do
[17:47] <quaxir> James147, even running nvidia-settings with kdesudo
[17:47] <James147> quaxir: whats the error message?
[17:48] <quaxir> james147, "Failed to parse existing X config file '/etc/X11/xorg.conf'! "
[17:49] <James147> quaxir: rename /etc/X11/xorg.conf (add .bak to the end or somehting) then recreate it using "sudo nvidia-xconfig"  then try nvidia settings again as root
[17:50] <quaxir> james147, ok. Just a sec
[17:52] <quaxir> James147, getting error message: "Bareweord found where operator expected at (eval 1) line 1, near "/etc/X11" (Missing operator before X11?)
[17:53] <James147> O-o
[17:53] <James147> when running what exatcly?
[17:54] <quaxir> James147, "sudo rename /etc/X11/xorg.conf xorg.conf.bak"
[17:55] <James147> quaxir: "sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.bak"  is how i usually do it...
[17:55]  * James147 goes to look up this "rename" command
[17:58] <James147> quaxir: if you care at all it look like the rename command is a batch renamer "rename perlexpr [files]" is how you use if where perlexpr is a perl expression such as 's/foo/bar/'
[18:00] <quaxir> James147, oh..sorry, habits from Windows world. Now I managed to rename that file without errors, but saving xorg.conf doesn't.. "Unable to open X config file '/etc/X11/xorg.conf' for writing. "
[18:01] <James147> quaxir: recreate xorg.conf using "sudo nvidia-xconfig"
[18:03] <quaxir> james147, still getting error when saving xorg.conf. I seem to miss pkg-config and gtk -modules. + when trying to save my settings it gives just that same error message as earlier
[18:05] <James147> quaxir: :s cant remember, but I have a feeling its a non fatal error... try restarting X and see if it works :)  if it dosent rename or delete /etc/X11/xorg.conf recreate it again and restart kdm "sudo restart kdm"
[18:06] <quaxir> James147, ookey. Just a sec
[18:11] <quaxir> James147, restarted X, deleted and recreated xorg.conf but still that same unable to open X config etc
[18:12] <quaxir> James147, what was that kdm somethingsomething I should try?
[18:14] <James147> quaxir: that only restart kdm... you shouldent need it atm
[18:15] <quaxir> james147, kk. *sigh*, why this is always so hard :(
[18:15] <James147> quaxir: didn't think it was... :S didn't have that many problems when I did mine
[18:17] <quaxir> James147, Could it work if I manually editted changes to xorg.conf?
[18:17] <James147> quaxir: probally  agood idea to start from scratch :)  "sudo rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf"... then logout and press Alt+Crtl+F1 to switch to a virtual terminal stop kdm "sudo stop kdm" and recreate the xorg.conf "sudo nvidia-xconfig" then restart kdm "sudo start kdm"
[18:18] <MIH1406> are there any extra themes for kubuntu in the official or comunity repos?
[18:18] <James147> quaxir: that would work...
[18:18] <James147> MIH1406: themes for what par tof kubuntu?
[18:18] <quaxir> James147, I'll try that manual edit now.
[18:19] <James147> quaxir: although it would be more hassel (i would try the above first then lookinto manualy editting it)
[18:19] <quaxir> James147, ookey.. I'll try that then :D
[18:20] <MIH1406> Style, Window Decoration, Icons, Splash Screen and Login Screen
[18:21] <MIH1406> James147: Style, Window Decoration, Icons, Splash Screen and Login Screen
[18:21] <James147> MIH1406: don't know of a way to edit them all with one theme... need to get a theem for each of the sepertlly
[18:21] <MIH1406> yes I mean that
[18:21] <James147> MIH1406: kde can auto download and install themes for those compoents in their respicitive settings
[18:22] <James147> MIH1406: although some of them didn't work very well in kde 4.4.x (it was improved on allot in kde 4.5)
[18:22] <picard1421> hey guys im looking for the kde4-devel package for ubuntu 10.04
[18:22] <MIH1406> James147: Yes, but not for the "widget style"
[18:23] <picard1421> i have kubuntu desktop installed is the devel package already installed?
[18:23] <James147> picard1421: only if you installed it
[18:23] <picard1421> whats the apt-get for the devel package
[18:23] <picard1421> for kde4?
[18:23] <picard1421> i tired
[18:24] <picard1421> sudo apt-get install kde4-devel ..
[18:24] <picard1421> did not work..)):
[18:24] <James147> picard1421: they normally have -dev  or -devel after the package name
[18:24] <MIH1406> What is Oxygen? is it a theme or an engain?
[18:24] <picard1421> i tried kde4-dev and kde4-devel
[18:24] <James147> MIH1406: a theme
[18:25] <picard1421> im doing kde-devel
[18:25] <picard1421> hopefully that is the same thing as kde4-devel ???
[18:25] <picard1421> i can only hopee )(:
[18:25] <James147> picard1421: kde-devel
[18:26] <James147> picard1421: it depends on 4.x stuff so it is kde 4 :)
[18:26] <picard1421> kk (**:
[18:26] <James147> MIH1406: the widget style is a bit weird in the wayt it works...
[18:27] <quaxir> James147, did those fancy things in command line. Should I now try to edit xorg.conf with nvidia-settings?
[18:28] <James147> MIH1406: look for a theme you like here: http://kde-look.org/?xcontentmode=9  then you need to figurew out which theme engin it works with :(
[18:28] <James147> quaxir: yes
[18:28]  * James147 likes the bespin theme engine :D
[18:29] <Randy__> clear
[18:29] <MIH1406> James147: thank you
[18:30] <quaxir> james147, still no progress. Same errors. http://pastebin.com/6K43dVHy (terminal's output)
[18:31] <James147> quaxir: do you have pkg-config installed?
[18:34] <quaxir> james147, yes I have. installed it in the beginning when that unable to save xorg.conf appeared
[18:34] <quaxir> james147, removed it somewhile though :S, thought it hasn't anything effect. But now it's installed
[18:35] <James147> quaxir: whats the output of "pkg-config --version"?
[18:35] <quaxir> james147, 0.22
[18:35] <James147> quaxir: :S
[18:36] <quaxir> james147, should it be more recent?
[18:36] <James147> quaxir: no thats fine... looking at it again it looks like your missing a module named gtk :( ... (grr gtk)
[18:37] <James147> quaxir: try installing python-gtk2
[18:38]  * James147 should read the entire error message rather then guessing at whats wrong
[18:39] <quaxir> james147, done
[18:39] <James147> quaxir: :) now try nvidia-settings as root again... hope it works
[18:43] <picard1421> im looking for this.. but this folder does not exist??? Edit /usr/kde/4/share/config/kdm/kdmrc
[18:43] <picard1421> search for PluginsLogin
[18:43] <picard1421> uncomment the line and add
[18:44] <quaxir> james147, relogging. This time no errors when saving xorg.conf with nvidia-settings :)
[18:44] <picard1421> wher is the kdmrc folder located with the plugs info ??
[18:46] <James147> picard1421: didnt think kdmrc would be a folder... *rc are usually files... have one at /etc/kde4/kdm/kdmrc
[18:46] <picard1421> kk oen sec
[18:47] <ralph_> I've got a problem which involves kmix, ill paste the error message after this. But I can workaround this by after each reboot and login by doing a "sudo service kdm restart". Then all will work fine...
[18:47] <ralph_> <unknown program name>(2990)/: Communication problem with  "kmix" , it probably crashed.
[18:47] <ralph_> Error message was:  "org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply" : " "Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken." "
[18:48] <ralph_> Anyone can shed a light on this? Tried various googled stuff but no go there
[18:54] <ralph_> Please anyone?
[18:54] <quaxir> james147, now I can move my cursor to another screen but not applications
[18:55] <James147> quaxir: dual screen? set as twinview?
[18:56] <quaxir> james147, yes I have dualview and set it to twinview
[18:56] <picard1421> ok when i log into KDM there is no place where i can choose to use face authentication.. i modded kde4/kdmrc to load plugsin class,faceauthenticate.. but its still not working????
[18:57] <James147> quaxir: :s dont know why you cant drag application to the toher screen... what happens when you try?
[18:57] <quaxir> james147, should I force apply changes (not revers even they're still wrong), log out and reset X
[18:58] <quaxir> james147, my 2nd screen is still black and when I move my cursor to there it's only "X"-sign instead of normal "arrow-type cursor"
[18:58] <quaxir> james147, should I enable "xinerama"-option aswell?
[18:58] <James147> quaxir: ahh :) sounds like twinview is working but kde is only using one screen :S try looking in system settings > display
[18:59] <quaxir> james147, ookey :), I'll try
[18:59] <James147> quaxir: shouldnt need that with twinview
[18:59] <quaxir> james147, hm. kde's own display manager doesn't even identify that 2nd screen
[19:04] <James147> quaxir: twinview is anoying in that it looks like one big screen :( kde should be able to create virtual screen though under the multiple monitors setting in display
[19:06] <quaxir> james147, I'll try to relog if it has any change
[19:06] <picard1421> im having a problem using plugins with KDM... im using the default theme but i dont see a menu or anyplace where i can use a plugin with KDM... do i need a different theme for KDM how do i do that etc??
[19:06] <picard1421> i followed this guide... http://lifeasiknow-it.blogspot.com/2009/08/pam-face-authentication-musings-how-to.html
[19:13] <quaxir> james147, well now I can move programs between these two displays but kde's display manager shows them as one display (because of twinview?)
[19:14] <James147> quaxir: yeah, mine dose the same... although kde should use them as two screens
[19:15] <quaxir> yeah, when I fullscreen ex. irssi, I'll get it only for either of these so it basically works
[19:15] <James147> quaxir: its just the stupid way nvidia's twinview works... combines the screens into one virtual desktop which kde then has to split them back up into two screens :S
[19:15] <|sysop|> hi

[19:21] <Don_jr> I have just finished doing a dist upgrade in hopes that it would fix my resolution but no luck.
[19:22] <Don_jr> fresh install, fresh dist upgrade to 10.04 and my Samsung SyncMaster731b is not recognized and nothing I've changed in the xorg.conf has made any difference.  Any suggestions?
[19:23] <James147> Don_jr: would help to know what graphics driver you are using
[19:23] <|sysop|> http://paste.ubuntu.com/471196/
[19:23] <|sysop|> its gdiskdump
[19:23] <Don_jr> the proprietary nvidia drivers, ver. 97, proper drivers for the old mx4000 card I have.  Everything worked fine till I put on this monitor
[19:24] <Don_jr> if I put my old CRT monitor on, it configs and works fine, change to this one and I lose all resolutions
[19:25] <|sysop|> btw I am running 9.10 on a emac ppc.
[19:26] <James147> Don_jr: I would plug it in and run "kdeusdo nvidia-settings" to configure it...
[19:27] <Don_jr> James147 I've run the nvidia-settings it doesn't allow any configuration, just allows me to choose between the 2 low resolutions it's allowing.
[19:28] <James147> |sysop|: where did you get that program?
[19:34] <Don_jr> here is my xorg.conf   http://pastebin.com/M1LeEWUk
[19:39] <picard1421> i tried installing a theme.. i downloaded the folder and put it in my /usr/share/kde4/apps/kdm/themes
[19:39] <picard1421> but whwenever i boot it gives me an erro and takes me to CLI???
[19:39] <WaltzingAlong> check out the x log and kdm log
[19:39] <picard1421> hmm?
[19:40] <picard1421> is there anything i have to setup
[19:40] <picard1421> i literally
[19:40] <picard1421> DL'd the folders
[19:40] <picard1421> extracted them
[19:40] <FloodBotK3> picard1421: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[19:40] <picard1421> and just in the kdmrc file ... edited the location to those new folders.. they were kde4 themes
[19:43] <WaltzingAlong> no need to make it guess work, look at the logs
[19:46] <picard1421> what would i look for
[19:46] <picard1421> im not sure what im looking for in the logs.. i tried two different themes.. i just DL'd them from kde-apps.org
[19:46] <WaltzingAlong> errors
[19:47] <WaltzingAlong> i do not know why it is not working either. you could switch back to how it was before, see if the error goes away
[19:48] <picard1421> where do i type that in
[19:49] <picard1421> ea i switched to the old theme
[19:49] <picard1421> no problems..
[19:49] <picard1421> but that theme does not have the "menu" so i can switch plugins for authentications... basically is there an easy way to install KDM themes etc.. cause this manual way kind of scks
[19:49] <WaltzingAlong> picard1421: and the error that it gives you when using the other themes?
[19:50] <WaltzingAlong> picard1421: through systemsettings / login screen
[19:50] <picard1421> ons ec..
[19:50] <picard1421> ok i just pressed hte k
[19:50] <Don_jr> Any advice or help with my resolution problem yet?  You can see my xorg.conf here  http://pastebin.com/M1LeEWUk   Though no changes I've made to it have seemed to have any effect.
[19:52] <WaltzingAlong> Don_jr: and the log /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[19:54] <|sysop|> hey James147 sorry was afk
[19:54] <|sysop|> I got the deb from the installers website.
[19:54] <|sysop|> developers website I mean
[19:55] <Don_jr> WaltzingAlong here is the Xorg.0.log   http://pastebin.com/VdUEUb3p
[19:56] <|sysop|> ok gotta go do stuff in rl. ttyl.
[19:58] <Don_jr> Just noticed it said no monitor set up for the screen, I've changed that, going to restart and see if it helps.  Will be back to let you know.
[19:58] <WaltzingAlong> Don_jr: well you can see there no valid modes for those three resolutions
[20:04] <Don_jr> Yup, that did it.  Thanks a ton.
