[08:06] <DarthFrog> It was to be released this past week but has been post-poned.

[13:28] <raksandjalpa> hi all
[13:45] <ubuntu> hi...I'm in the middle of a failed kubuntu install...it already formated /, so I'm kinda screwed :)
[13:46] <ubuntu> ubiquity says it can't unmount the /cdrom
[13:46] <AlexZion> what's up ubuntu ?
[13:47] <AlexZion> but have you already install it ?
[13:47] <ubuntu> nop...I'm on the livecd now
[13:49] <AlexZion> so let me understand, running the installation have you got an error after the formatting ?
[13:50] <ubuntu> exactly...the error is that it can't unmount the /cdrom....on the syslog it says the device is busy
[13:51] <AlexZion> of course is busy , if are installing.........
[13:52] <AlexZion> I mean , probably have you tried to open the cd-rom drive ?
[13:52] <ubuntu> nop...nothing is open....just installing
[13:53] <ubuntu> it opens
[13:53] <AlexZion> it's really strange .....
[13:53] <AlexZion> try again to install , probably something went wrong .....
[13:54] <ubuntu> why is it trying to unmount the /cdrom anyway?
[13:55] <AlexZion> I can't understand ......, anyway ,try again , and if it will happen again ,so there is surely a problem
[13:56] <ubuntu> I tryed for about 5 times....
[13:56] <AlexZion> ahh ok , so there is a problem .....
[13:57] <AlexZion> are you trying with Kubuntu 10.04 ?
[13:59] <ubuntu> yes....I tryed this for 5 times already with the same error
[13:59] <AlexZion> you pc, is a modern pc, or an old machina?
[13:59] <AlexZion> ops ...machine ...
[14:00] <ubuntu> modern...has 1year
[14:00] <AlexZion> laptop or desktop ?
[14:00] <ubuntu> laptop
[14:00] <AlexZion> do you have some strange hardaware connected ?
[14:00] <ubuntu> the cdrom :D
[14:01] <ubuntu> it's the only thing connected to it :)
[14:01] <AlexZion> do you mean it is an external drive ?
[14:01] <ubuntu> usb
[14:01] <AlexZion> ok , so probably the problem could be thisone .....
[14:02] <AlexZion> have you tried to install from a usb pendrive ?
[14:02] <ubuntu> I don't have one
[14:03] <AlexZion> because it could works better ....
[14:03] <ubuntu> but wait a sec...
[14:03] <AlexZion> otherwise could be a kernel problem.....
[14:04] <ubuntu> I have the phone mem card...I'll try to find the sd adapter
[14:04] <AlexZion> mhhh,i don't know if it's the same with a card reader .....
[14:05] <AlexZion> anyway , are you trying with Netbook version , or the normal ?
[14:06] <ubuntu> have faith ;) what is the name of that thing? unetbootin?
[14:06] <ubuntu> it's the normal version
[14:06] <AlexZion> but your pc is a netbook ?
[14:07] <ubuntu> it's a laptop....'till yesterday I had kubuntu running here just fine
[14:08] <AlexZion> laptop model ?
[14:08] <AlexZion> and the version of Kubuntu you had before was the same version ?
[14:11] <ubuntu> Packard Bell EasyNote BG49 Limited Edition
[14:12] <ubuntu> in deed...10.04...the difference is that the previous was from upgrade....since 8.10
[14:18] <ubuntu> ok...unetbootin it running now....
[14:19] <AlexZion> yeah , could a kernel problem I think ...., you could try with 9.10 version for exmple
[14:21] <ubuntu> well...the reason I'm installing again is because I want a fresh install
[14:21] <ubuntu> not an upgrade
[14:22] <ubuntu> the sd card WILL WORK!!!
[14:26] <BluesKaj> ubuntu, or try the alternate install cd , it worked for me when the std live cd wouldn't
[14:27] <ubuntu> also did...it loads the installer and then...guess what....can't find the cd :)
[14:29] <BluesKaj> ok. then your cdrom is probly failing
[14:30] <BluesKaj> some of the mfg installed cdroms are toast in 2 yrs
[14:30]  * James147 has given up on cd/dvds :)
[14:30] <ubuntu> it's not...I recently installed a netbook with it...easy peasy I think was the name...and went fine...it's not failing, there is some software problem around
[14:30] <ubuntu> ok guys...wish me luck :)
[14:30] <ubuntu> brb
[14:36]  * BluesKaj wonders what that software prob could be.
[14:42] <BluesKaj> I meant cdrom drive not the disk itself , ubuntu
[14:43] <James147> BluesKaj: he could have as well ^^ most netbooks dont have a cdrom drive so could ahve been an usb external
[14:44] <James147> also he quit  :)
[14:44] <BluesKaj> right,  James147
[14:45] <BluesKaj> yeah. I have the notifiers turned off
[14:46] <BluesKaj> not bad in here but #ubuntu gets filled up quickly with useless text
[14:47] <James147> BluesKaj: dont tend to go there because of that :)
[14:48] <James147> that and I cant follow it and do work at the same time :)
[14:51] <BluesKaj> well James147 , I have time on my hands today...it's raining so my trim project is on hold
[15:30] <ubuntu> how can I get a previous version of kubuntu_
[15:30] <ubuntu> ?
[15:31] <James147> ubuntu: http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/releases/kubuntu/    any reason why?
[15:31] <ubuntu> because 10.04 is not working properly
[15:31] <James147> ^^ better place http://releases.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/
[15:32] <ubuntu> thanx >(
[15:32] <ubuntu> :)
[15:33] <ubuntu> damn keyboard layout :D
[15:33] <ubuntu> Im unable to install any of the lucid versions
[15:34] <James147> what goes wrong?
[15:34] <ubuntu> I will try to upgrade
[15:35] <ubuntu> well...when installing the desktop version, it says it cant unmount the /cdrom partition, and fails to install
[15:36] <ubuntu> on the alternate, after running from the cdrom, selecting language and so, says it cant find the cd
[15:36] <ubuntu> or cant mount it
[15:37] <ubuntu> Im trying to install this since yesterday....getting pretty pissed with it
[15:38] <James147> ubuntu: have you tryed it using a usb flash drive?
[15:38] <ubuntu> also tryed to put the iso into an sd/card...all my adapters are broken :) today is one of those days :)
[15:38] <James147> :(
[15:39] <ubuntu> I miss the install from iso that I used in mandrake....
[15:40] <ubuntu> well Im hoping to successfully install 9.10 and then upgrade
[15:46] <btarik> hello world, i want to have a norma desktop under kubuntu and not the plasmoid version, how can i do that?
[15:46] <James147> btarik: ^^ what version of kde?
[15:47] <btarik> kubuntu 9.10
[15:47] <BluesKaj> plasmoid is the default- normal version now
[15:47] <ubuntu> btarik: go to the activity settings...then inthe activity tab, set the type to folder view
[15:48] <ubuntu> im using 10.04 so things might be in a slightly different place
[15:49] <James147> btarik: right clock the desktop > activity settings > Activity > change Type to "Folder view"
[15:49] <James147> click ^^
[15:51] <btarik> Thank you James147, and i want to change the default web browser into firefox i tried update-alternatives --config x-www-browser but in vain
[15:51] <James147> btarik: System settings > Default Applications
[15:51] <ubuntu> well...gonna try it now...
[15:52]  * BluesKaj didn't like the plasma view and widget stuff at first , but it works for me now , vivsually and otherwise.
[15:53] <btarik> can we change the size of the plasmoid?
[15:54] <James147> btarik: mouse over it and handel should appear (assuming widgets are unlocked) on the handel there is a rezise button click and drag
[15:55] <James147> BluesKaj: has always liked that widget view :) mostly because I hate desktop icons so normally have a blank desktop
[15:55] <btarik> ah i had to click and drag...^^ thanks James147
[15:55] <James147> I have ^^
[15:58] <btarik> is it possible the show the plasmoid only in one virtual desktop?
[15:59] <BluesKaj> my desktop http://imagebin.ca/view/BXs99y0.html  , James147
[15:59] <James147> btarik: yes... cant remember what version of kde that was introduced, but you need to set up seperate activity for each desktop (think its in one of the options when you click the semicircle thing in one of the corners
[16:02] <James147> btarik: nice :) heres mine: http://imagebin.ca/view/Lt-IG14M.html
[16:03] <James147> BluesKaj: ^^
[16:03] <James147> dam tab complete

[16:06]  * James147 really like the bespin window theme :D

[17:03] <ep> On 10.04, I need to enable "unsupported updates" to install one package (kdevelop).  What are the consequences of enabling backports,  does this mean that a bunch of other packages will be "updated" to unstable of alpha packages as well?  I just want kdevelop.

[17:28] <albergio> helloo
[17:30] <ep> BluesKaj: thanks, seems easier to just enstall the package by enabling the backports or unsupported  updates.  I guess this is what I was asking about, the debian package system.  I don't understand it.   How will other packages be affected if I enable unsupported updates.   I don't want a bunch of my applications "updated" to unsupported releases.
[17:30] <ep> I just want kdevelop
[17:31] <albergio> which language is this chat?
[17:33] <BluesKaj> ep, just find the kdevelop repos or ppa , and copy iit to your sources.list , as long as you don't update the other deb repos you should be fine , but just to be sure ask in #kdevelop first
[17:34] <ep> ok thanks

[19:46] <Dragnslcr> Kimimaro001- it's nearly impossible for a Windows virus to affect a Linux system. However, it isn't impossible to have malware that targets Linux, so you should still be careful
[19:46] <Kimimaro001> yeah I know. Does keyloggers affect Linux?
[19:47] <Dragnslcr> You could have one that is written to target Linux
[19:47] <Kimimaro001> Is their any firewall or anything I can add to protect linux system?
[19:48] <Dragnslcr> You shouldn't need a firewall, since there aren't many ports that are open for no good reason
[19:48] <Dragnslcr> But you can easily install one if you need to
[19:49] <Dragnslcr> !firewall
[19:49] <ubottu> Ubuntu, like any other Linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW | An alternative to ufw is the 'iptables' command - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo | GUI frontends such as Firestarter/Gufw (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE) also exist.
[19:50] <Kimimaro001> is it built in to be default on?

[21:23] <Viperisthebest> Anyone know the command line for updating Kubuntu from the server?
[21:26] <Viperisthebest> the command to upgrade Kubuntu to 10.04?
[21:32] <Viperisthebest> What is the command to update to 10.04 from the server?
[21:32] <tempos> IT shoud have requested update itself... did you reject the update?
[21:34] <Viperisthebest> it never requested update
[21:34] <tempos> what version do you have now?
[21:34] <Viperisthebest> my brother said there is a command that you can type in konsole and it will start updating from the server
[21:34] <Viperisthebest> i have 9.10 now
[21:35] <Dragnslcr> Viperisthebest- are you in KDE, or do you only have a terminal?
[21:36] <Viperisthebest> im in KDE
[21:36] <Dragnslcr> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LucidUpgrades/Kubuntu
[21:38] <Viperisthebest> that only gives the way to update it from adept manager
[21:38] <Viperisthebest> my brother said there is a command u can type in terminal to update from the server
[21:43] <Dragnslcr> Viperisthebest- sure, you can upgrade from a terminal, but if you're in KDE, why would you need to
[21:46] <Viperisthebest> What is the command to upgrade from a terminal?
[22:00] <Scunizi> Viperisthebest: upgrade from one release to another or simply upgrade the existing system for security patches and program updates?
[22:03] <uahmed> hellow
[22:05] <Viperisthebest> im trying to upgrade to the latest version 10.04 Scunizi
[22:06] <Scunizi> Viperisthebest: from what version?
[22:06] <Viperisthebest> 9.10
[22:06] <Scunizi> Viperisthebest: ubottu has several suggestions.. gui and cli based.. hang on.
[22:06] <Scunizi> !upgrade
[22:06] <ubottu> For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - To upgrade to Karmic (9.10) directly from Hardy (8.04) see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/KarmicUpgrades/Kubuntu/8.04 - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading
[22:09] <Scunizi> Viperisthebest: Looks like "sudo do-release-upgrade -d for desktop upgrade.. if it's a server use the last link ubottu gave you
[22:13] <Viperisthebest> i did the one for desktop upgrade
[22:13] <Viperisthebest> it just aborts at the end
[22:13] <Scunizi> Viperisthebest: that's quick.. do you have a fast connection?
[22:14] <Viperisthebest> i have 7 mbps
[22:14] <Viperisthebest> its cable internet
[22:14] <Scunizi> not bad.. but still .. there's usually a ton to download and then it runs through the install process
[22:15] <Viperisthebest> at the end it says
[22:15] <Viperisthebest> An unresolvable problem occurred while calculating the upgrade:
[22:15] <Viperisthebest> The package 'kubuntu-desktop-kde3' is marked for removal but it is in the removal blacklist.  This can be caused by: * Upgrading to a pre-release version of Ubuntu * Running the current pre-release version of Ubuntu * Unofficial software packages not provided by Ubuntu  If none of this applies, then please report this bug against the 'update-manager' package and include the files in /var/log/dist-upgrade/ in the bug report.
[22:16] <Viperisthebest> it says what that error calculating can be caused by
[22:16] <Scunizi> Viperisthebest: you should do a full update prior to upgrading.. sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade ... turn off any 3rd party repos and revert any binary video drivers to stock..
[22:17] <Viperisthebest> so the stock binary video driver is vesa
[22:17] <Scunizi> that's fine.. sometimes you have issues if you're running the nvidia or ati binary from them direct.
[22:17] <Viperisthebest> but i can do a full upgrade in adept manager
[22:18] <Scunizi> probably.. I don't use adept.. just apt-get
[22:18] <Viperisthebest> when i go into adept manager it says i can do a full upgrade
[22:19] <Scunizi> Viperisthebest: go for it
[22:19] <Viperisthebest> if i switch the driver to vesa and then do it will the nvidia driver not be affected
[22:20] <Scunizi> did you install the nvidia driver using the hardware drivers tool in Kubuntu or did you download it from nvidia/
[22:20] <Scunizi> ?
[22:20] <Viperisthebest> i downloaded it
[22:22] <Scunizi> after the upgrade you'll have to re-install the driver.  so make sure you have already downloaded the driver you want to reinstall to make things easier.. if something happens during the upgrade and leaves you with a terminal prompt it can be a pain navigating the web with a cli browser. and using wget to download the binary.
[22:23] <Viperisthebest> k i have to go now
[22:24] <Scunizi> good luck.. sometimes it's easier just to reinstall fresh using your old /home with all your data
[22:41] <twobitsprite> so, I'm running ubuntu, but I installed the kubuntu desktop. When I log out, and then log in with KDE, my wireless network doesn't come up... am I missing like a KDE version of the network manager thing or something?
[22:43] <well_laid_lawn> twobitsprite: there's knetworkmanager for kde as default
[22:44] <twobitsprite> ok, I have that installed
[22:45] <twobitsprite> but I don't see an icon or anything
[22:49] <well_laid_lawn> it should be in kmenu
[22:50] <well_laid_lawn> or in the taskbar
[22:50] <draik> Anyone know of a channel for assistance with IMAP via TELNET?
[22:53] <amichair> does anyone know how to fix video tearing on a twinview setup?
[22:54] <draik> amichair: I had an issue with the dual monitor setup that I had. I just rebooted and everything was working again.
[22:54] <amichair> draik: I have tearing for months now...
