| poyntz | the last update killed nvidia | 01:08 |
| well_laid_lawn | namorka is just firefox with a diff name | 01:08 |
| poyntz | as in, my graphics driver fails | 01:08 |
| === crissi_ is now known as CrissiD | ||
| well_laid_lawn | poyntz: you have to rebuild nvidia for each new kernel | 01:09 |
| poyntz | any ideas on how to fix this? so far i've tried purging nvidia-common, nvidia-current and nvidia-modaliases and rebooting and then reinstalling | 01:09 |
| poyntz | *nvidia-current-modalises | 01:09 |
| poyntz | well_laid_lawn: pls explain | 01:09 |
| well_laid_lawn | each new kernel needs the nvidia driver built just for it | 01:10 |
| poyntz | well_laid_lawn: how do i do that? | 01:10 |
| well_laid_lawn | same as you did the first time - but for the new kernel | 01:10 |
| poyntz | well_laid_lawn: i thought it automatically did it for my current kernel. if it doesn't how do i select a kernel to do that for? | 01:11 |
| Torch | poyntz: if you don't mess with it, it will. | 01:12 |
| Torch | poyntz: like install nvidia drivers from their web site. | 01:13 |
| poyntz | Torch: just did. i'll reboot now & tell you how it goes | 01:15 |
| poyntz | Torch: thanks before. reinstalling the nvidia graphics driver from the website, solved it :) | 01:32 |
| Torch | pookito: my advice: don't waste your time with this. just use the kubuntu provided one. | 01:32 |
| Torch | wah. | 01:32 |
| Torch | pookito: sorry for the noise. | 01:32 |

| BluesKaj | Hi all | 14:55 |
| tuxick | lo | 15:03 |
| tuxick | after login my "recently used" only contains some urls, no apps | 15:04 |
| tuxick | is that normal? afair it would also remember apps? | 15:04 |
| tuxick | where is this data stored anyway? | 15:05 |
| James147 | tuxick: mine only contains documents/paths... dont remember seeing it contain applications but then again I never really used it much | 15:06 |
| tuxick | i'm quite sure it worked as expected on gentoo | 15:09 |
| tuxick | it also looks like "most used" isn't working | 15:15 |
| James147 | tuxick: most used? | 15:20 |
| James147 | in what? | 15:20 |
| tuxick | in the thing that used to be called kicker, i think | 15:20 |
| tuxick | kde of course | 15:20 |
| James147 | kmenu? | 15:20 |
| tuxick | kickoff? i lost track of all those names | 15:21 |
| tuxick | ye could be | 15:21 |
| * James147 fails to find a "most used" button :S | 15:21 | |
| tuxick | there's "favourites" "applications" "computer" "recently used" | 15:22 |
| tuxick | and both favourites and "recently used" seem to be failing | 15:22 |
| James147 | and leave ^^ | 15:22 |
| tuxick | :) | 15:22 |
| James147 | why is favourites failing? nothing listed? | 15:22 |
| tuxick | yes, but only while running | 15:23 |
| tuxick | after reboot it only contains urls | 15:23 |
| tuxick | oooh sorry | 15:23 |
| tuxick | favourites just never gets updated | 15:24 |
| tuxick | OR reset after reboot, hard to tell | 15:24 |
| tuxick | i don't know how smart it is, or how it counts | 15:24 |
| James147 | tuxick: favourites is a static list... | 15:24 |
| tuxick | oh, why? | 15:24 |
| tuxick | afair even windows has that dynamic | 15:24 |
| James147 | tuxick: application > findd an application > right click it > add ot favrouites | 15:24 |
| yanfreddo | non capiscon | 15:24 |
| tuxick | oh ok, cheers | 15:24 |
| tuxick | but the "recently used" is another story | 15:25 |

| yanfreddo | pronto | 15:25 |
| yanfreddo | non c'è nessuno qui | 15:25 |
| James147 | does it really need to be dynamic? i dont find the menus that complicated that i need a list of most used applications :) and the way fravourits works is exactly how i want it, things I ahve picked :) | 15:25 |

| powerinside | How to upgrade my firefox 3.6 to firefox 4.0 pre release one? Not fresh/seperate install. Need an upgrade | 15:55 |
| James147 | powerinside: cant see a ppa or .deb so I would think you ened to compile it from source... | 16:01 |
| DarthFrog | Or wait for it to become available in backports. | 16:01 |
| powerinside | James147: actually, i was able to install it through some rep but it went as clean install of it. my old ffox exists | 16:02 |
| James147 | DarthFrog: betas dont usually end up in backports :) but it might end up in the beta ppa | 16:02 |
| James147 | powerinside: then "sudo aptitude uninstall firefox" should get rid of the other version | 16:02 |
| powerinside | james147: Yes I know that.. but I want to get all my plugins and settings on the pre release one | 16:03 |
| James147 | powerinside: uninstalling dosnt normally remove user level config files | 16:04 |
| James147 | not even sure purging dose that...? | 16:04 |
| powerinside | James147: What about the extensions, personas ? sure? But I dont see them coming in the 4.0 | 16:04 |
| James147 | powerinside: I dont even know if they are compatable with 4.0... | 16:05 |
| James147 | powerinside: nor where it gets it settings from now... | 16:05 |
| powerinside | James147: Well on windows it was. and upgrading was easy on it | 16:05 |
| James147 | or if the way you installed it changes where it gets its settings | 16:05 |

| James147 | rmrfslash: short answer: no | 16:58 |

| rmrfslash | really? is it that buggy? | 16:58 |
| rmrfslash | it's an release candidate | 16:59 |
| rmrfslash | bummer. | 16:59 |
| James147 | rmrfslash: RC releases arnt good for a production computer so thats my answer for all rcs :) but kde 4.5 RC2 dose seem stable enough to use at least for me | 16:59 |
| James147 | rmrfslash: but final is going to be out in about a week if you can wait that long :) | 16:59 |
| rmrfslash | James147: I live life slightly on the edge | 16:59 |
| rmrfslash | Yeah but I'd rather grab it now than when all the kids are having at it | 17:00 |
| rmrfslash | I figure it's pretty much stable minus any major show-stopping bugs | 17:00 |
| James147 | rmrfslash: I have been using it for ages without any issue, but with final just around the corner its probally best just to wait for that :) | 17:00 |
| rmrfslash | Ehhhhh....I'm gunna install it | 17:01 |
| rmrfslash | :D | 17:01 |
| rmrfslash | I just reinstalled this machine recently | 17:01 |

| Riddell | there's your answer right there, 4.5 is due to be released | 17:18 |
| DarthFrog | Riddell: Thank you for that. | 17:18 |

| an1 | hey. im installing kubuntu 10.04.. i created 2 partitions apart from swap. can i have both as ext 4? what do i specify in mount point? | 19:32 |
| James147 | an1: yes you can have both as ext4 | 19:33 |
| an1 | James147: what do i specify in mount point? | 19:34 |
| James147 | an1: as for the mount point, one would need to be / (the root file system) and the other can be where ever you like... most people have it at /home so all user data is on a seperate partition | 19:34 |
| James147 | an1: note that the / partition dosnt need to be much bigger then 10-20 gig | 19:34 |
| ep | On 10.04 I have a taskbar on the panel. How do I configure this taskbar it to show icons only (no text)? This reduces clutter and looks nicer IMO. | 19:35 |
| James147 | ep: remove the widget "task manager" and replace it with the widget"smooth tasts" (might need to install it, think its in the repos one sec | 19:35 |
| an1 | James147: i plan to use / for boot and system files. and packages. and the other partition for development. | 19:36 |
| an1 | ive divided 80gb-80gb | 19:36 |
| === root is now known as Guest72158 | ||
| James147 | an1: if its purly for development files then /media/development (or what you want to call it) will do, or you can mount it directly in your home drive (/home/USERNAME/Workspace or what you want to call it) | 19:37 |
| James147 | an1: personally I choose a 20 gig for /, and use the rest for /home but its purly up to you | 19:38 |
| James147 | an1: in unix drives are mounted to an empty folder, so that any file placed or created tehre will be on that drive... so you just mount it where you want to place the files | 19:39 |
| an1 | ok.. so id rather use 25 gigs for / , including user files. so can i leave the other blank? it says i wont be able to use it later | 19:40 |
| James147 | an1: so you just have to set the mount point to the directoy where you are going to store the files | 19:41 |
| James147 | an1: ^^ if you dont plan on having many large user files that would work, i wouldnt leave the otherne blank... you will just have to set it up later | 19:42 |
| James147 | an1: /media/development should do, once the system is installed you can syslink that location to where you want | 19:42 |

| James147 | ep: plasma-widget-smooth-tasks :) sorry got distracted | 19:43 |
| ep | np thanks | 19:43 |
| an1 | James147: i dont get the use of media/development. | 19:43 |
| James147 | an1: if you want to access the files on the drive it needs to be mounted somewhere... /media is a common place to put mount points for drives | 19:44 |
| James147 | an1: if you place it there you can browes to that location in dolphin or any file manager and see the files on that drive | 19:45 |
| an1 | ok. so how do i mount it there? what do i give now? /home? | 19:45 |
| James147 | an1: if you want it mounted to /media/dev set the mount point to /media/dev you can set it to /home if you want (a common thing to do) but it will include all yopur user settings/files as well | 19:46 |
| James147 | an1: if your intrested/want to know exactly whats going on look up how drives are mounted/acceses in linux on google | 19:47 |
| James147 | an1: it works differently from how windows dose things :) | 19:48 |
| an1 | there is not /media/dev in the options in installation | 19:48 |
| an1 | no* | 19:49 |

| an1 | how much do people give for swap? i usually give about 700 mb | 19:52 |
| Alkerzor | an1: I think the recommended guideline is twice your RAM | 19:53 |
| an1 | that would be around 4 GB for swap! | 19:53 |
| Alkerzor | an1: That may come from the days of olde when you had far less RAM, I just know that was the guideline for a loong time. | 19:54 |
| James147 | an1: yup :) normally only need that much if you want to hybernate | 19:54 |
| an1 | cool | 19:54 |
| James147 | Alkerzor: you need at least the size of your ram to hbernate (well the amount you are youing I would think) as thats where your ram gets written | 19:54 |
| Alkerzor | James147: Makes sense. | 19:55 |
| === jtheuer is now known as jt|away | ||
| James147 | an1: you can if you want create a swap file later (like what windows does | 19:55 |
| James147 | an1: doing that makes it easier to expand/shrink as you need | 19:56 |
| an1 | ok. so i have given 700 mb for swap. will create a swap file later | 19:57 |
| * James147 wonders if he actually has a swap drive | 19:57 | |
| James147 | heh, i dont :) | 19:58 |
| an1 | :) | 19:58 |
