[00:00] I'm having some odd problems regarding Kubuntu booting, it was the same last reinstall as well. Three scenarios: 1. After Grub menu the screen is black with an underline character flashing. The keyboard doesn't turn on. 2. The Kubuntu loading screen stops at the last dot. Keyboard turned on. 3. The screen is black after grub, without any loading screen, and keyboard is turned on. [00:02] Having a hard time debugging this. Most of the time I have to reboot and hope that it'll work out, and sometimes it doesnt [00:26] hello guy =) [00:32] hi, i noticed the session manager only saves some things like Konsole. any way to make it also save thunderbird ? or shall I just add that to the startup list ?

[15:41] I still dont know* [15:42] Mr-B: if you have the "unsupported updateds" checked in kpackagekit then you should be able to install it via kpackagekit [15:44] I did enable it, where shall i go to search for Kdevelop in KPackageKit? like do i have to hit the Software management tab and type Kdevelop or what? [15:44] Mr-B: also, if you have added the "ppa:kubuntu-ppa/beta" ppa I would also add the "ppa:kubuntu-ppa/backports" ppa [15:45] Mr-B: I would first go to the updates tab and hit the refresh button (just in case) then go to the softweare managment tab and search for kdevelop [15:50] Thank you so much, It worked!

No mention of encoding into MPEG-2. [17:50] Why would you want to go from AVI to MPEG-2? I can't see any benefit (unless you were making a DVD) and just a wasted increase in file size.

Actually. I don't remember how to do it from network manager in gnome either. I always use the cli method.

[19:18] ( I have no installed version yet to check this against ) [19:18] !nbr | edb [19:18] edb: Ubuntu Netbook Remix is a slightly altered version of Ubuntu, optimised for small screens. For more information, please see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UNR - support in #ubuntu [19:21] DarthFrog: That much seems clear, but it (and the linked page) don't really seem to answer my specific question. Forgive me if I'm missing something obvius [19:21] *obvious [19:23] edb: I have no experience with the Netbook Remix version. However, "apt-cache search remix" does turn up several specific packages. [19:23] which I suppose I could phrase better: I am really looking for a path between the already written netbook CD I have and ordinary Desktop, that's likely to work [19:24] You could always install the kubuntu-desktop package onto a netbook remix system. [19:24] heh yeah - my hope is that my girlfriend will be able to apt-get install ubuntu-desktop and have it work [19:24] Don't see why it wouldn't. [19:24] I guess we shall see :) [19:28] DarthFrog: that's why I didn't advise him to try slackware [19:28] HOWEVER, I began in the linux universe in 1997, and it was with slackware (that's why i still use it) [19:29] but since he is not an IT freak like me... I advise him to go for ubuntu/kubuntu. He saw my KDE... and decided to go for kubuntu ;) [19:30] Kenjiro: That's a good choice. I started with Slack in 1994 and with KDE 1.0.
