[00:34] im going to get a 60gb vertex 2 ssd disk in a couple days. anybody got experience with one? My main concern is something called alignment. I wish to install everything onto it and possibly without partitioning it (using the whole disk). The thing is, my /home is located on another disk and I want to keep it like that. I don't want a swap partition but a swap file (to avoid partitioning), any tips? [00:54] vbgunz_: what's so bad about partitioning? === root is now known as Guest38421 === Mike is now known as Guest9319 [02:59] Torch: partitioning an ssd correctly involves some weird science. I mean, you just can't partition it and be done with it, you gotta align heads, sectors and a bunch of other gibberish stuff that you probably aint never think about before [03:00] Torch: anyhow, supposedly, if you dont partition an ssd and just use the entire disk, everything is aligned correctly. my disk coming in is small 60gb and the only real partition I need is my /home *but* thats already on another disk [03:00] vbgunz_: just make sure you align the partition start correctly. === raffi is now known as Guest38799 [03:01] Torch: easier said than done. I've been checking out the ocz forum and there is no solid walk through or step by step thats assured to work for me except simply using the whole disk [03:02] vbgunz_: i'm not familiar with SSDs but i would be really surprised if you ran into any problems provided you just align all partitions on a 4096 sector boundary [03:03] vbgunz_: i.e. make sure they start at a sector number evenly divisable by 4096 [03:04] Torch, the FAQs at OCZ state 2048 Sectors or 1024KB [03:04] vbgunz_: right. so 4096 would be fine too, see? [03:04] vbgunz_: simple math. [03:05] vbgunz_: background reading: http://blog.volker-lanz.de/2010/05/30/new-in-kde-partition-manager-1-1-iii-support-for-4096-byte-sectors/ [03:05] my kde partition manager looks like it has a gnome interface [03:05] its just busted but im gonna check out that article [03:06] vbgunz_: partition manager 1.0.x cannot do what you need. [03:06] vbgunz_: screenshot please. [03:06] Torch: yeah, I have 1.0.1 [03:07] vbgunz_: there's no official release yet of 1.1, i'm afraid. either get it from svn and build yourself (not recommended ;-)) or use parted directly [03:07] vbgunz_: or don't partition if you really don't need more than one partition EVER on that thing... i'd never think of doing that, though. [03:08] Torch: I can show you a screenshot as I just took one, its the only kde app that looks like garbage whereas everything else is oxygen all the way [03:08] vbgunz_: i sure would like to see that. [03:08] what photo sharing site would be simplest to post too? [03:09] vbgunz_: ah, your root user has a crappy style set. [03:09] Torch: I don't think so, one sec [03:09] vbgunz_: use the pastebin plasmoid [03:09] Torch: yeah I think you right [03:10] gotta launch kdesudo systemsettings and change my root theme? [03:10] vbgunz_: exactly [03:10] cause damn, its so busted [03:10] vbgunz_: or try "partitionmanager --dontsu" from a shell... it'll bitch about not having root, but you can force it. i bet it will look okay then. [03:11] Torch: it looks awesome, otherwise it was looking like GTK 1 [03:11] heh [03:12] vbgunz_: sounds terrifying ;-) [03:13] supposedly though, I can use the entire disk. I never used an entire disk before. I have always partitioned my disk. but using a whole disk shouldn't be a bad idea, I am just worried about grub, installing it onto the ssd should work I hope? [03:13] vbgunz_: but anyway, don't use partitionmanager 1.0.x for your SSD, you'll run into alignment problems. (the blog entry explains why) [03:13] yeah I am gonna read that for absolutely sure [03:13] vbgunz_: i don't think you can install grub AND not partition [03:14] Torch: man, thats what I was afraid of, I believe it isn't possible [03:14] vbgunz_: if you don't partition, the filesystem will use the whole disk and start at sector 1. that's where grub would want to write some of its stuff... [03:14] Hello everyone. I'm trying to figure out why I can't access a page online, but using the IP address works. Also, using a proxy shows that the site is available. [03:15] By trying the IP, the whole site doesn't really function. I'm sure that's because it is tied into the use of the domain name, rather than being a relative path for the content/CSS [03:16] Torch, im gonna bust my ass then trying to figure out the correct alignment, Torch may I ask for your opinion? If I use fdisk to partition the alignment, hopefully I get it right, I can just pop in the install cd and use the partitions already available on the ssd *without* worrying about alignment anymore, correct? [03:16] vbgunz_: absolutely [03:17] vbgunz_: you just need to create ONE partition in parted (or fdisk, if you prefer) and set its start sector to 2048 and the last sector to the number of sectors. [03:17] vbgunz_: that's all. [03:17] Torch: maybe and hopefully I am being just sort of stupid and making this bigger than it really is, I am just trying to prepare for using this ssd and if I understand correctly, a whole lot more care needs to go into just setting one up. I think alignment was my only issue so I'll keep googling it [03:18] vbgunz_: you already have that thing in your computer? [03:18] no, I get it in a couple days, just trying to prepare myself for what I need before I just try to use it [03:19] draik: your conclusion sounds correct. it also sounds you have dns resolution problems on your kubuntu setup... [03:19] Torch: I'm using Google's DNS on my router. [03:19] draik, I use google dns too [03:19] vbgunz_: you can just install it as a data disk, partition it, create a file system and benchmark it. if it's terribly slow you know the alignement is wrong. [03:19] whats the site? [03:19] vbgunz_: t-mobile.com [03:20] I have my dns servers at 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 and t-mobile.com shows up for me just fine [03:20] I get "404 - Not Found" [03:21] draik: with the host name or the IP address? [03:21] I use konqueror and it finishes the address like this http://www.t-mobile.com/ [03:21] Torch: That's with the domain name. I can use the resolving IP address and it somewhat loads. [03:22] And now it loads [03:22] BTW, this was happening in Firefox and Opera [03:23] To clarify, http://www.t-mobile.com works now. [03:23] draik: so your problem is solved for now? [03:23] hey Torch, I just want to thank you for suggestions and opinions, its all very much appreciated [03:23] Torch: Yes. I also like that you added "for now". [03:23] vbgunz_: your welcome. [03:23] draik: heh ;-) [03:25] hello. I had been having issues with Kontact, so the other day I closed it and started using the components separately. But now, when I try to use Kontact again, it opens the components in separate windows.

I`m new to linux and I have created a RAID Array and i dont know how to find out whicht letters this array has got (sdaX or sth else), how can i find out? [14:28] your raid don´t have a "classic" /dev/sdaX [14:29] it will be more like /dev/mapper_Grid_something [14:31] its a hardware raid and i dont have sth like /dev/mapper_Grid_something, theres only a directory /dev/mapper with volume groups in it [14:31] but i have a lot of sdaX/sdcX in my /dev [14:34] "sudo dmraid -r" could help [14:35] theres no command 'dmraid' on my system :( [14:37] "sudo aptitude install dmraid" [14:38] this command says 'No RAID disks' [14:40] I think the reaseon is that i made a hardware raid, linux doesnt know anything about this array, because it only sees a harddisk?! [14:40] oh right, didn't read carefully your previous message [14:41] with fdisk -l /dev/sda and fdisk -l /dev/sdc i see the array, but i cannot change the ID :( [14:43] i am a little bit confuseb because it says '/dev/sdc4 14593 38904 195286140 5 Extended' and '/dev/sda2 8 8510 68300347+ 5 Extended' [14:44] sorry, this is beyond my knowledge :s [14:44] now, whats that?

[15:09] FlashDeluxe: yes [15:10] from the aptutude, right? [15:10] i had the same prob, after i installed this driver http://www.treiberupdate.de/treiber-download/download-171185-treiber-nVidia-Linuxx86DisplayGeForce8600GT_8600GS_8400GS_95.html the problem was solved [15:11] i have the 8600gt, too [15:13] i`ll test now [15:26] FlashDeluxe: i had problems when install it [15:26] can u help me because i broke my x [15:27] e01: I can try. What kind of problems? [15:28] ahm.. the driver is 177.70.18 right? [15:28] when start instalation, accepting license... it show me an ERROR: If you are using a Linux 2.4 kernel.... [15:29] yes it is, what kernel do you use? [15:29] 2.6.32 [15:29] 2.6.32-24-generic [15:30] ok it should work with this kernel, so what did you do exactly? [15:31] sh Linux_x86_Display....run [15:31] and what does it say if you do it? [15:32] nothink wrong, dialog to accept license, dialog to [15:32] hm.. [15:32] i am think that i had no kernel sources [15:33] needed for the compiling nvidia [15:33] this could be an explanation ;) you definitly need the sources [15:33] so install the sources and try again [15:33] how can i install them from aptitude with command line [15:35] sudo aptitude install linux-source-2.6.32 [15:46] FlashDeluxe: again the same error [15:46] can you poste the complete error? [15:48] http://new-tech.ro-ni.net:88/~e01/nvidia-installer.log [15:49] this is the log from the nvidia`s installer [15:53] ok, do the following: sudo aptitude install linux-headers-`uname -r` [15:53] and then try again [15:54] FlashDeluxe: again :( [15:55] so you have kernel-sources and headers installed? [15:55] yes [15:55] and you start the script with sudo or as root? [15:56] yes [15:56] and gcc is also installed? [15:57] ofcourse :) [15:57] gcc 4.4 [15:59] looks like the installer doenst find the sources, does /lib/modules/2.6.32-24-generic/build existß [15:59] how can i fix it? [16:00] i try to make symlink /usr/src/linux to point to the current sources but without success [16:01] you can run the sh script with sudo sh Linux-bla-bla.run --kernel-source-path=/path/to/the/sources [16:03] sitting here browsing the web i just lost sound support. amarok was playing an mp3 and cut out... now no sound. i could reboot... but i'd like to know what happened. i closed my browser. [16:05] FlashDeluxe: the interesting is that with nvidia driver 256.44 i had no problems [16:06] it is compiled successful [16:08] so, was it the driver which was installed before? [16:09] dunno, the recommended from the aptitude [16:18] mhhh strange...then reinstall it, so that you have at least a X [16:23] @all: how can i backup my partitiontable which is currently running (i made changes to it, these changes will take effect by the next reboot and it don`t want them to take effect, so i want to correct my changes back) [16:32] I was wondering if anyone here has tried out the new ubuntu font with KDE?

Where can I find a more up-to-date one? [19:10] whats wrong with them? [19:10] The latest instructions are for Karmic.. And they don't encompass the applications installed by Ubuntu 10.04 [19:11] oh [19:11] they list individual packages? O_O wow [19:11] it used to just be like...remove gtk and everything goes away [19:12] or maybe thats how the puregnome one works...just removing qt [19:12] anyway, the 9.10 instructions should work. there's not much change in default installed stuff, except run "dpkg -l indicator*" to see the indicator applets and umm pitivi is installed by default in ubuntu now [19:13] though ... that pitivi change might be for 10.10. i dont remember... [19:14] maco: I'm impressed with what I see when I installed Kubuntu though. Kubuntu used to be this not-quite-polished, crashy, slow, buggy distribution. I've used it for less than a day, but still, what I have seen so far is extremely nice. [19:14] yay! [19:16] robbit10: when did you use it before? the kde 4.x versions started out quite buggy due to it being an almsot complete rewrite [19:17] James147: Quite a while ago, back when it ran kde 3.5. I think it was on Kubuntu Gutsy, or something like that. [19:17] gutsy had 4.1 [19:17] Then it was even earlier than that [19:17] and was really buggy [19:18] By the way, while we're on the subject.. Is it safe to install KDE 4.5? [19:18] brb [19:18] maco: your sure? wasnt hardy the first to get kde 4.0 (with 3.5 as wells ) [19:18] i think the desktop search stuff is problematic in it... but other than that, yeah [19:18] * maco facepalms [19:19] James147: i was thinking g comes after h [19:19] yeah, desktop search seems to be broken but other then that its much more responsive [19:29] Hmm... I won't install it even if it has one broken segment. This one seems to be working fine, so i'm not gonna touch that. [19:32] robbit10: up to you :) but I think the overall improvements in it are worth losing desktop search :) (well, not that I ever used them at all) [19:33] James147: Is it really that much better? I'll switch if it is really that much better. However, what would I have to do when the next version of Kubuntu hits? [19:33] the next version of kubuntu has 4.5 already [19:33] (im using it right now) [19:34] robbit10: I think it is (but then again I have been running it since the RC versions and cant quite remember what 4.4 was like) === v3nd3tta`` is now known as v3n``afk [19:34] KDE 4.5 is solid. Mind you, I don't use desktop search either. [19:34] robbit10: and if you upgrade to the next version not much will change...

I suspect it doesn't like that I've rotated one my monitors 90' [19:44] atb: hmm, dont see why it would care.... what graphics card do you have? [19:45] a relatively modern GeForce [19:45] then it shouldnt have a problem... [19:46] atb: if you really think it is the rotated monitor i suggest disabling/rotating it back and trying (only to see if it actually is or if something else is wrong) [19:46] it is: E-GEFORCE 8800GT 600MHZ 512MB 1.8GHZ DDR3 PCI-E [19:46] dam that should have no problems :) i am only on a 7300 :) [19:48] James147 did you overclock it or are you happy with your gk?

[19:49] havent overclocked it... wouldnt say i was happy with it (kde runs fine... but the dam thing hates shadows in any game) [19:49] i have it too but q3 runs fine :D [19:49] atb: i have the nvidia ones as the default ones dont handel 3d as well yet [19:50] the default ones can't even handle with the desktop effects [19:50] or mine could not [19:50] v3nd3tta``: in lucid? [19:51] yeah, when i upgraded, my desktop effects were disabled because i had to download the nvidia drivers [19:51] * James147 dosnt remember them sucking that much at desktop effects when he fist installed lucid [19:51] i guess my next step will be to install the nvidia ones [19:51] yep [19:51] you should do that [19:51] (i think) [19:52] atb: yup :) easiest to do that from jockey-kde (Hardware Drivers in the menu) (or installing nvidia-current) [19:52] just "apt-get install nvidia-current" ? [19:53] atb: sudo ... but yeah :) [19:53] ...or run as root :) [19:53] which i learned not to do the hard way... :'( [19:53] atb: you shouldnt be doing :) [19:54] which you ^^ [19:55] alright, installed... now to reboot! [19:55] dont need to reboot :) [19:55] ... [19:58] wow... so now it no longer recognises my second monitor... this _worse_ than with the stock drivers :'( [19:59] longer? [20:00] atb: I would run "kdesudo nvidia-settings" to setup the second monitor [20:08] I'm running KDE 4.5 now, but on the desktop there's a weird border that encompasses about 70% of my desktop. It's a border made out of shadow. How do I remove it? [20:09] robbit10: can you take a screen shot of it? [20:10] James147: Okay, but what's the tool in KDE4 for taking screenshots? [20:10] ksnapshot (it is launched by the peintscreen key) [20:15] hi [20:15] James147: screenshot: http://yfrog.com/m9snapshot1op [20:15] James147: I mean, http://img801.imageshack.us/img801/8692/snapshot1o.png [20:16] robbit10: hmm [20:16] hi [20:17] i cant access the touchpad options on the control panel [20:17] robbit10: not sure what is causing that :S ... i take it its only on the desktop? [20:17] 2 days ago i could [20:17] James147: Yep. [20:17] it stopped working sudenly [20:19] come faccio a collegarmi a un tuo canale? [20:20] robbit10: I would guess there is a problem in updating your plasma settings... you could try renaming ~/.kde/share/config/plasma-appletsrc (or plasma-desktoprc... or any file that starts with plasma there although i think its most likly the first one) this will reset plasma back to its default settings (and all the widgets). If you want you can create a new user first to test it [20:20] !it | sergio__ [20:20] sergio__: Vai su #ubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie! (per entrare, scrivi « /join #ubuntu-it » senza virgolette) [20:21] James147: Ok. Logging out and in, now [20:22] James147: That worked. Thanks :) [20:23] robbit10: :) sometimes kde settings get chewed up on an upgrade... although it dosnt happen much any more :) [20:24] James147: What is the shortcut for switching between workspaces? [20:24] robbit10: crtl+Fx (x being 1-11) [20:24] James147: thanks :) [20:40] Hi, im having some problems, I've got no sound over hdmi.
