[00:21] <craigwdy2k> I'm back: I found out that I was missing a Turion 64 X2 processor driver that I plan to install eventually...  Right now I'm trying to fix my broken sources.list file: unlike a regular Debian install I found it quite strange that the Trees: line was missing.  Why is that & how should I go about attempting to fix it?
[00:23] <mado> daskreecH, ... djustice ... i tried searching with "kfind" but when i right-click them there is no "move"-option or "cut"-option
[00:23] <mado> daskreecH, ... djustice ... i can only e.g. copy or delete those files
[00:26] <craigwdy2k> I also figured out that I needed to enable the Experimental Repo in order to upgrade to KDE 4.5.1: so far the upgrade went good with only minimal issues like held back packages...
[00:27] <craigwdy2k> upgrade went well*
[00:44] <daskreecH> sithlord48: when did they vanish?
[00:44] <daskreecH> Did You change anything/ do an upgrade?
[00:44] <sithlord48> umm .well i reinstalled..
[00:45] <daskreecH> Ah
[00:45] <sithlord48> but i kept my home partition
[00:45] <daskreecH> The directory still has a .svn directory ?
[00:45] <sithlord48> and also upgraded to 4.5.1 ultimately
[00:45] <sithlord48> yes it does have .svn
[00:45] <daskreecH> do an svn up in the directory see what it does
[00:45] <sithlord48> i just did a new export
[00:45] <daskreecH> mado: Cpy then delete? :-D
[00:46] <sithlord48> er that is i removed my local folder and re checked out from the svn
[00:46] <mado> daskreecH,  didn't work completely like that but ... i think i'm on to something :) ... one sec please
[01:08] <djustice> mado: you cant/-rly- shouldnt delete your png files in system folders.. the apps wont know where to find them..
[01:15] <mado> djustice, understood ... thank you for that too
[01:28] <djustice> mado: np ;)
[01:28] <djustice> mado: welcome to kde ;p
[01:30] <mado> djustice, ... somebody showed me a command :) ...
[01:30] <mado> and thank you for the welcome :) ...
[01:31] <mado> find "where are the files now?" -iname "*.png" -exec mv -i "{}" "where do you want the files?" \;
[01:45] <lisa88> hey just installed lucid kubuntu (from wubi fwiw). Can't seem to get wifi working. Any idea? ifconfig -a showed wlan0. ideal would be to get this working using wicd (or other command line). but anything that will get me online would be welcome.
[01:48] <Pavel_10> anyone know about how Wine affects performance?  Will running a windows application through wine on a netbook drastically slow me down?
[01:51] <djustice> mado: nice :)
[01:51] <djustice> i cant ever remember the syntax when i need it.. i just use ack & xargs mostly.
[01:52] <djustice> Pavel_10: not unless you leave it running..
[01:52] <mado> djustice, well ... i didn't know at first it was that easy  ... you see ... i'm new to all this
[01:53] <djustice> Pavel_10: the first time you run wine = rly slow. it needs to do a bunch of config stuff. so just make sure your app closes. i use 'htop' for that stuff.
[01:53] <djustice> mado: hehe :) learning is good.
[01:54] <javarocker> lisa88: how are you chatting on irc if you don't have net? or are you just here to soak up the tech vibe?
[01:55] <lisa88> I'm on a yucky Windows box... I would rather use linux except I cant get wifi working
[01:55] <sithlord48>  what kind of wifi card do you have lisa88
[01:56] <lisa88> is there a command to tell?
[01:57] <sithlord48> you can find out with lshw
[01:57] <mado> yep ... i hope i can learn a lot more too :)
[01:57] <sithlord48> you will have to scroll thur the output to find network info (there will be a lot of output)
[01:57] <mado> djustice, is there anything you could recommend me to read?
[01:58] <sithlord48> lisa88: in windows you can find out in the device manager?
[01:58] <javarocker> lisa88: you can use lshw | more
[02:01] <lisa88> the wireless (wlan0) just says Disabled, but eth0 says Broadcom Netlink BCM5906M Fast Ethernet PCI Express
[02:01] <sithlord48> lisa88:  does you laptop have a wifi switch?
[02:01] <lisa88> javarocker less is more
[02:02] <Pavel_10> djustice, this may be a dumb question, but android is linux based, right?  Is there a possibility to run an android app on kubuntu nativly?
[02:02] <sithlord48> idk
[02:02] <lisa88> I was wondering what that mysterio switch was... but, alas, it was already on.
[02:02] <mado> please excuse me for a minute or so
[02:03] <lisa88> It was working on Jaunty, but somebody else had gotten it configured....
[02:04] <javarocker> lisa88 :)
[02:04] <sithlord48> lisa88: does its have a button to turn it on
[02:10] <lisa88> I booted into windows, the Wifi is broadcom, and the switch is in the right position and the wifi works ok
[02:11] <sithlord48> if you plug it in to the wired lan you may be able to dl properitary driver w/ kubuntu when its online
[02:11] <lisa88> Would the hardware IDs from the windows properties helP/
[02:11] <lisa88> let me boot back into linux
[02:15] <mado> does anyone in here know "fdupes" ?
[02:18] <Pavel_10> has anyone here had success running an android app in kubuntu?
[02:23] <javarocker> lisa88: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=981840

[03:14] <avihay> no, my time machin is busted
[03:14] <dk12548> oh
[03:14] <dk12548> but yet the problem persist

[03:15] <dk12548> i want to open it in firefox
[03:16] <dk12548> also i want the name of a good media player in ubuntu who can organise my music files and my music library
[03:16] <avihay> well, it all works fine for me
[03:17] <dk12548> i think a restart will do the job
[03:17] <dk12548> isnt it?
[03:18] <pingjocky> apt-cache dont fail me now!
[03:18] <dk12548> so what about the media player
[03:19] <pingjocky> mplayer from the CLI...
[03:19] <dk12548> apt-cache it?
[03:20] <pingjocky> run this...
[03:20] <pingjocky> sudo apt-cache search media
[03:21] <dk12548> kkk

[03:21] <pingjocky> sudo apt-cache search media | more
[03:22] <dk12548> oh kkk
[03:22] <pingjocky> that is like searching in synaptic but faster
[03:23] <dk12548> i am complete noob in linux. ping . can you tell me what is the difference between synaptic and aptitude
[03:24] <pingjocky> synatic is a GTK based front end for apt-get... aptitude is a CLI gui based front end for apt-get
[03:24] <pingjocky> did i get it right?
[03:24] <pingjocky> if you just do
[03:25] <pingjocky> sudo aptitude
[03:25] <dk12548> oh my god looks like only googling can help me on that topic
[03:25] <pingjocky> you will see a browseable menu
[03:25] <dk12548> i dont know gtk and all those stuff
[03:25] <dk12548> oh
[03:25] <dk12548> ok
[03:25] <pingjocky> are you running kubuntu or ubuntu?
[03:25] <dk12548> kubuntu
[03:26] <dk12548> yes i can see a window has opened
[03:26] <pingjocky> then a majority of your apps are going to be Qt
[03:26] <dk12548> qt?
[03:27] <pingjocky> its the GUI language the KDE is based on
[03:28] <dk12548> oh ok
[03:28] <pingjocky> but it has a C++ back end
[03:29] <pingjocky> blah blah blah... that means nothing if you dont find a media player you like
[03:29] <pingjocky> :P
[03:29] <dk12548> lol is media monkey available for kubuntu?
[03:29] <dk12548> or i have to use wine for that

[03:38] <Sir_Brizz> hi all... I'm running Kubuntu 10.10 beta and I can't for the life of me figure out how to enable the nvidia drivers

[03:48] <Sir_Brizz> hi
[03:48] <Sir_Brizz> Daskreech: thanks I always forget
[03:48] <dk12548> i think u should do this:
[03:48] <dk12548> click start
[03:48] <dk12548> type hard
[03:49] <dk12548> you will get hardware drivers
[03:49] <dk12548> click it
[03:49] <dk12548> it will check for the drivers
[03:49] <dk12548> for third party
[03:50] <dk12548> choose the driver u want and click activeate
[03:50] <dk12548> activate
[03:50] <Sir_Brizz> yeah it doesn't show the nvidia driver in there for some reason
[03:51] <dk12548> oh so that is your problem
[03:51] <dk12548> sorry i am not a advance user lol
[03:51] <Sir_Brizz> you're fine :)
[03:51] <Sir_Brizz> thanks for trying to help! :D

[04:50] <James147> nymphaeaceae: its normally done after 30 mounts (or after a certin time, cant remember exactly)
[04:51] <nymphaeaceae> so it's done automatically? or do I need to keep track?
[04:52] <James147> nymphaeaceae: should be done autoatically, during boot after either 30 mounts or a lenght of time
[04:52] <nymphaeaceae> oh, thanks James ^_^
[04:53] <nymphaeaceae> OH! that's when I get that "checking" message on the kubuntu loader and the option to skip, right?
[04:54] <James147> nymphaeaceae: yup
[04:54] <nymphaeaceae> alright. Thanks for the answer, James ^_^

[09:35] <daskreech> Zvezdichko: It's in the topic
[09:36] <Zvezdichko> I guess I've missed to add :ppa:kubuntu-ppa/backports
[09:36] <daskreech> Zvezdichko: Well you can add that then update away :)
[09:38] <Zvezdichko> yes. it works. thanks. years ago I edited manually sources.list :) I feel it's much more complicated to do it in Graphics mdoe
[09:38] <Zvezdichko> mode
[09:40] <daskreech> I know
[09:40] <daskreech> Command line is so much more straightforward
[09:40] <daskreech> granted you must know what you are doing

[11:17] <vipinb> Hi all
[11:19] <vipinb> Can anyone help me is there any voice chat messaager available for Kubuntu
[11:20] <Erthe> You can use Skype.
[11:20] <Erthe> For Linux.
[11:20] <vipinb> But I want a messenger like empathy in Gnome... is there anything in Kubuntu
[11:50] <craigwdy2k> You could always use Gizmo as a Skype replacement too...
[11:51] <Erthe> Or just use Empathy  :)
[11:54] <craigwdy2k> Yeah: Gnome apps. like GnuCash 2 are still installable in any version of KDE too...
[11:55] <Erthe> Well everything runs in X
[11:55] <craigwdy2k> Exactly: that's the beauty of it...
[11:57] <Power-Inside> I Just installed the Open Source edgy drivers for my ATI from the normal open source one and when i restarted it shows a garbled screen
[12:04] <Zvezdichko> Ah...
[12:04] <Zvezdichko> ATI
[12:04] <Zvezdichko> I would never use the open source drivers
[12:04] <Zvezdichko> it's silly IMO
[12:05] <craigwdy2k> That's why I use the latest ATI official non-Open Source drivers instead: more features are present like working 3D support...
[12:11] <Power-Inside> But ATI official drivers are not there for my model.. I checked the realease notes . My gfx is ATi Mobility Radeon HD 2300
[12:11] <Power-Inside> Please I need a working dual screen config.. ANY drivers?
[12:12] <jjman6> Gizmo is no longer!
[12:12] <jjman6> Google owns it and has stopped hte project, although supposedly replacing w/ Google Voice.
[12:15] <jjman6> I have no audio in miro but no problems with all other apps, running in kubuntu 10.04 i noticed the problem in 9.10 also
[12:30] <craigwdy2k> I don't like Google Voice & Video: it doesn't work on PowerPC Macs running 10.4.11-10.5.8...
[12:38] <rapidsp> hi
[12:39] <rapidsp> where ktorrent stores his torrent-files?
[12:41] <apparle> rapidsp: use the export torrent option if you want the torrent of the download
[12:42] <rapidsp> apparle: thanks
[12:43] <JuJuBee> I am using NIS to handle log in for my students. However, yppasswdd is not running on the server and I cannot figure out why.
[12:52] <jjman6> rapidsp: ~/.kde/share/apps/ktorrent/   by default unless u've set a new default
[12:54] <rapidsp> jjman6: yes, some torrent stops all downloads.. i must add by one :)
[12:56] <jjman6> if u go to the   preferences u can set it to dump a stalled torrent.   Not sure if thats your problem but i have that problem a lot so i set a time-limit on torrents to be stalled.  b4 it'll kick it down the queue and continue queue

[13:57] <apparle> zeltak: ^ that might help
[13:57] <apparle> but don't know
[13:58] <apparle> !info konversation
[13:58] <apparle> Synjunitzu: why don't you use quassel
[13:58] <Synjunitzu> because it doesnt have that feature mirc has
[13:58] <Synjunitzu> as far as i know
[14:00] <apparle> Synjunitzu: why don't you try konversation and see if it has that feature
[14:02] <Synjunitzu> im using konversation right now an i dont see the feature
[14:02] <Synjunitzu> wondering if im missing something
[14:03] <apparle> don't know then, but you could suggest that feature in #quassel (or ask them if there is any way to do that)
[14:27] <apparle> please suggest a image editing application... except gimp
[14:27] <apparle> !paint
[14:27] <apparle> !image
[14:27] <Synjunitzu> hmm
[14:28] <James147> apparle: you could try the ones in koffice :)
[14:28] <apparle> James147: I was looking for something light weight... I don't want super powerful apps. simple ones like paint
[14:29] <Sjors_> apparle: kolourpaint! \o/
[14:29] <apparle> !info kolourpaint
[14:29] <apparle> Sjors_: ^
[14:29] <Sjors_> ew :(
[14:29] <Sjors_> it's in kdemultimedia I think
[14:30] <Sjors_> at least it was in 4.4.1
[14:30] <apparle> what is kdemultimedia? a package?
[14:30] <Sjors_> but it should still be in there :/
[14:30] <Sjors_> yes, a part of kde
[14:30] <apparle> !info kdemultimedia
[14:30] <Sjors_> there should be a package for it, anyway
[14:31] <apparle> fjound it.... kolourpain4
[14:31] <apparle> !info kolourpaint4
[14:31] <Sjors_> there :)
[14:33] <apparle> where can I get good graphics for developing a game?

[15:39] <Toast> What's the process name of the Alt-F2 dialog? Mine has frozen and I need to kill it.

[15:46] <Toast> elslunko: That was it, thanks.
[15:46] <elslunko> Toast: No problemo.

[15:53] <sanoop> hey anyone please help me on how to use emrald theme manager
[15:54] <sanoop> and how to apply the themes in it
[16:01] <filePeter> How usuable is Kubuntu-NBR, yet? I think about switching form Ubuntu-NBR…
[16:02] <James147> filePeter: i find the kde 4.5 version is very usable :)
[16:05] <filePeter> James147: Nice, which one is it?
[16:05] <filePeter> James147: 10.4?
[16:07] <James147> filePeter: 10.04 comes with kde 4.4.2, 4.5.1. is avilable in the backports repo (see topic)
[16:09] <filePeter> Ah, thx, James147
[16:11] <James147> filePeter: if you just want to try it out you can install it inside an existing *ubuntu system by installing "kubuntu-netbook" from kpackagekit or apt-get, you can tehn choose which one you want to login as on the login screen
[16:14] <filePeter> James147: Ohhh… I see! :-) That sounds faster! Lets see how much space it usese… (Only have 8GiB)
[16:19] <bizarro> hello

[16:41] <daskreech> filePeter: What do you consider fancy tools?
[16:42] <filePeter> daskreech: The wiki says I need to use this ubuntu usb creator thingy, which I don’t have on my debian; and I don’t want to mess with it.
[16:42] <daskreech> filePeter: You can grab fedora's one Or go to pendrivelinux or install ubootnetin

[16:45] <filePeter> daskreech: Well, fedora’s what?!? ;-) I mean I have this iso. What shall I do with it? What is it? Is it a thing I burn on CD and then use this programm on it do put it to my usb thing using windows? Hell!?
[16:47] <daskreech> liveusb-creator
[16:47] <daskreech> filePeter: you are just formatting a USB drive copying the ISO and putting a bootable flag on the front of the partition
[16:47] <v3nd3tta``> !usb
[16:47] <daskreech> more or less all the distros do it the same way
[16:48] <daskreech> If you ask in #debian how to burn the debian ISO to a USB the same steps with the Ubuntu ISO will work
[16:48] <filePeter> daskreech: As I said, it does not seem to be bootable.
[16:49] <daskreech> filePeter: Do you mean the ISO is not bootable?
[16:49] <filePeter> yes.
[16:49] <daskreech> Ah then you will have to do some work then
[16:50] <filePeter> daskreech: Hmm… Obviously, yes! ;-)
[16:52] <daskreech> Why would the Ubuntu ISO be unbootable? Did you hashcheck it?
[16:52] <filePeter> Yes. It seems to lack grub.
[16:52] <filePeter> This wiki says I need to install it manually....
[16:53] <filePeter> sure
[16:57] <filePeter> Why the hell is anyone wanting me to use windows tools to get an bootable usb-drive? Or why even use a gui-tool for that? Why not simply put the bootloader in the image!?!?
[16:57] <daskreech> filePeter: Where did you get the iso?
[16:58] <filePeter> daskreech: http://releases.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/lucid/kubuntu-10.04.1-netbook-i386.iso
[16:59] <daskreech> lol ok
[17:01] <filePeter> daskreech: But it has some nice exe-files installing kubuntu if I used windows…
[17:01] <daskreech> filePeter: I don't understand. What has some nice exe files?
[17:02] <filePeter> daskreech: The image itself. Mounted or written to the drive… ;-)
[17:03] <daskreech> filePeter: Yes. in case you would like to do a Wubi install
[17:03] <filePeter> daskreech: Right, wubi is the one’s filename
[17:03]  * daskreech nods
[17:05] <filePeter> daskreech: Ok, the plan is moving this “image” to an old ubuntu install, then installing this usb-installer-thing and then boot this usb-drive. You Ubuntu-guys really think different, eh!?! :-)
[17:05] <daskreech> filePeter: You could just dd it to a USB drive
[17:07] <filePeter> daskreech: That’s what I did! And it’s not bootable, because I did not use usb-creator! (Yes, I know how that sounds.)
[17:07] <daskreech> filePeter: usb-creator is a front end for dd
[17:07] <filePeter> daskreech: dd works with ubuntu’s ".img"-images but not with iso-images!
[17:08] <filePeter> daskreech: Exept it installing grub, too.
[17:08] <daskreech> So pretty much I assure you that you can dd it and have it work correctly. what ever you do to dd a Debian DVD to a USB drive will work here
[17:10] <filePeter> daskreech: Yes, I thought that, too. And i did nothing but that! I’ll give usb-creator a try! Thanks a lot so far, daskreech!
[17:12] <daskreech> filePeter: if you want yo ucan extract the bootable section of the ISO out and put that on the front of the USB drive
[17:33] <Dehs> anyone here know how to setup a static ip on ubuntu server 10.4.1? please dont ask me any random or pointless questions, not trying to be rude, ive just encountered several idiots here and want a quick answer, not wasted time
[17:34] <daskreech> BluesKaj: That was a tad drastic
[17:35] <BluesKaj> whatwas ?
[17:36] <illunatic> i guess his autorejoin script doesn't work either
[17:37] <daskreech> BluesKaj: Read wrong
[17:37] <daskreech> it was ikonia
[17:37] <BluesKaj> I cancelled it , lost 2conns today already
[17:38] <BluesKaj> maybe I should go bac to opendns , google dns seems to be having trouble today
[17:42] <daskreech> in which case ikonia that was a little srastic :)
[17:42] <daskreech> drastic actually
[17:43] <BluesKaj> didn't see what he said
[17:43] <Walzmyn> is there a way to set a keyboard shortcut to turn my screensaver on and off?
[17:44] <daskreech> BluesKaj: Someone came on and asked how to set a static IP address and was impatient about it. they got kicked
[17:44] <BluesKaj> ok
[17:46] <BluesKaj> I tried that om my router but lost my connection as soon the isp changed my IP of course ...dumb dynamic IPs ...can't get on unless I pay commercial rate
[17:46] <BluesKaj> one
[17:48] <no_u0> how do i increase the time a system notification stays up
[17:48] <no_u0> i barely get a chance to read them before they close
[17:49] <daskreech> not sure. You can ask in #plasma
[17:50] <zongo_> Hey Guys, my wireless can connect without any issues but after a little while being connected, I have "wlan registration failed: authorization failed"
[17:50] <zongo_> Any idea ?
[17:51] <zongo_> my connectiion is working perfectly when wired and work for some time with wlan until i get the failed authorization
[18:03] <EagleScreen_> zongo_: device?
[18:03] <zongo_> sorry EagleScreen_, what do you mean by device ?
[18:04] <EagleScreen_> your card model
[18:07] <zongo_> Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. Device [10ec:8172] (rev 10)
[18:09] <zongo_> ifconfig -a returns wlan0 with IP address: iwconfig tells me that my wireless is connected to good AP
[18:09] <zongo_> but yet I still have that auhorization failure and have no idea where its coming from
[18:10] <zongo_> link quality is 95/100 so close to perfection :)
[18:11] <zongo_> lsmod shows that the wilress module is loaded correctly and I have recompiled newest drivers from realtek from scratch
[18:12] <zongo_> it all works perfectly for a day or two until i get this authorization error and the connection seem to be refused by the AP
[18:12] <zongo_> eventhough the AP is actually giving my an IP address
[18:20] <raven24> can I use my thunderbird tags for emails with kmail? is there a way to migrate them easily
[18:22] <daskreech> good question how does thunderbird store the tags?
[18:31] <raven24> daskreech: i suppose if it's an imap account the imap server stores them
[18:32] <raven24> at least thats what I read about it here: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Tags
[18:36] <daskreech> raven24: Then yes
[18:38] <raven24> daskreech: I guess then that I just have to create my tags by the same name in kmail and they should show up normally...?
[18:39] <hsr> Please suggest me the best way to block adult sites.
[18:39] <filePeter> Anybody used Kubuntu-NetbokRemix, yet? Its seems quite slow on my EEEpc 900A……
[18:46] <James147> filePeter: its working great here on me eee 1005ha
[18:46] <sithlord48> i don't use it on my netbook , i just don't like it ..
[18:47] <filePeter> Ahh… Ok… Maybe its something else… :-)
[18:47] <sithlord48> can anyone help me get svn files to have colored filenames again..
[18:47] <James147> filePeter: although I am using the kde 4.5 version on maverick... but 4.5 on lucid was just as good :)
[18:47] <filePeter> sithlord48: Within an svn-command?
[18:48] <sithlord48> filePeter: with in a svn controlled folder as view by dolphin
[18:48] <filePeter> James147: Ahh… Ok. Maybe Ill just need to uni4stall all the other crap on it.
[18:48] <filePeter> sithlord48: Console?
[18:48] <sithlord48> filePeter: i use 4.5 lucid quite nicely on my netbook (emachine EM250)
[18:48] <filePeter> sithlord48: Hmmm… Its a little slow here…
[18:49] <sithlord48> filePeter: they all seam to be the same color  when viewed in a konsole (with excetion of the exe)
[18:49] <James147> filePeter: 4.5 or 4.4?
[18:49] <filePeter> James147: I thnk 4.4
[18:50] <James147> filePeter: try upgrading to 4.5, they made quite a few improvments in that version
[18:50] <sithlord48> i really enjoy 4.5
[18:50] <filePeter> Ok, thx guys
[18:51] <sithlord48> well i have 4.5.1 now but i have not had any issues with it other then now my svn files don't show colored any more (but they haven't since i reinstalled the os so its prolly not a kde 4.5 related issue)
[18:57] <daskreech> raven24: Not sure actually you can ask in #kontact
[18:57] <daskreech> hsr: Vigilance ?
[18:57] <raven24> will do
[18:59] <hsr> No
[19:01] <hsr> Sorry
[19:05] <Freddy2> hi

[19:08] <Freddy2> how can i check this?
[19:22] <hsr> How to edit Auto eth0 connection settings?
[19:22] <daskreech> hsr: Look at icthux or ubuntu christian edition
[19:23] <hsr> huh?
[19:24] <daskreech> hsr: For the adult site management
[19:24] <hsr> daskreech: That's not my question
[19:24] <hsr> daskreech: No
[19:24] <daskreech> oh
[19:24] <daskreech> what was it?
[19:24] <hsr> How to edit Auto eth0 connection settings from KNetworkManager?
[19:24] <James147> hsr: can you not do that in the network managment settings?
[19:25] <hsr> James147: Unable to find options to edit it
[19:25] <daskreech> weren\t you asking something else earlier?
[19:25] <hsr> daskreech: But now i m not
[19:25] <hsr> daskreech: How to edit Auto eth0 connection settings from KNetworkManager?
[19:25] <James147> hsr: Knetworkmanager > manager connection > wired > edit?
[19:27] <hsr> James147: There is nothing called Autho eth0 in wired
[19:28] <James147> hsr: then try adding one :)
[19:28] <hsr> James147: But i already have Auto eth0 enabled
[19:28] <James147> (or at least one called something else
[19:29] <hsr> James147: Why should i, if i've one enabled?
[19:29] <James147> hsr: and is that a problem?... what are you trying to change exactly?
[19:29] <hsr> James147: I am searching to add DNS id in that
[19:29] <hsr> James147: DNS servers
[19:30] <James147> hsr: try creating a new connection... then switching to that one.
[19:30] <James147> (it should really disrupt anything...)
[19:30] <hsr> James147: huh
[19:30] <hsr> ?
[19:30] <hsr> James147: Should or shouldn't
[19:31] <James147> shouldnt... :)
[19:31] <James147> my finger forget to type the nt... every time :(
[19:31] <hsr> James147: Everytime i switch on pc, it may not enable the new connection
[19:32] <James147> hsr: it may... try it... (hasnt really used the wired config)
[19:46] <daniel__> ok
[19:46] <daniel__> anyone there?
[19:47] <James147> daniel__: there is :)
[19:47] <daniel__> thanks
[19:49] <James147> ...
[19:54] <Walzmyn> is there a way to set a keyboard shortcut to turn my screensaver on and off?
[19:59] <James147> Walzmyn: Dont know of a direct shortcut to do that... but there is probally a way you can :)  ... If you can find a command to start the screensaver then you can add an entry to kmenuedit and set the shotcut key that way... personally I dont use a screensaver so there may be a better way to do that, (note you can lock the screen with alt+ctrl+l, not sure if it starts the screen saver though)
[20:00] <Walzmyn> James147: yeah, if i could just find that command
[20:01] <Walzmyn> We use this computer to skype with grandparents, during that time I'd like to cut it off, then back on when I'm done
[20:01] <James147> Walzmyn: :) it could be a qdbus command
[20:02] <Walzmyn> James147: whatever it is, my friend google dosen't seem to know it either
[20:02] <James147> Walzmyn: you mean turn off the screen saver from auto starting?
[20:02] <Walzmyn> James147: yes
[20:02] <James147> (thourght you ment to manually start it)
[20:02] <Walzmyn> Maybe I should ask how to disable / enable the screensaver
[20:05] <James147> Walzmyn: look into qdbus, running " qdbus org.kde.screensaver /ScreenSaver " give a bunsh of stuf that might be intresting to you
[20:06] <Walzmyn> James147: run that in termimal?
[20:06] <James147> Walzmyn: yeah
[20:06] <James147> Walzmyn: (also tabbing at the end of the comand give similar stuff)
[20:07] <James147> Walzmyn: ^^ dont know much about how to use qdbus, but from playing with it quickly (and knowing what it can do) it would seem that it should beable to do what you want
[20:08] <Walzmyn> thanks James147, I think you've set me on the right path.
[20:08] <James147> Walzmyn: for example "qdbus org.kde.screensaver /ScreenSaver org.freedesktop.ScreenSaver.GetActive" reports false, which is right for my system :)
[20:12] <James147> Walzmyn: "qdbus org.kde.screensaver /ScreenSaver org.freedesktop.ScreenSaver.SetActive true" seems to turn it on (or at least give me a blank screen, but thats expected since I have disabled the screensaver)
[20:14] <Walzmyn> James147: my kids are up no, so my attention is split
[20:14] <wboykinm> Ubuntu background screen and cursor appear on startup, but no login, icons or anything else clickable shows up.  Anyone know how to fix this?  It may or may not be a video driver bug . . . Running ubuntu 10.04 Netbook remix on an HP Mini 110c, Installed fine and worked like a charm for about a month.  The activities preceeding the malfunction were: 1.) I was configuring the required libraries for an installation of MapServer (libjpeg
[20:14] <wboykinm> , libpng, GD, etc.), 2.) I opened GNU emacs to edit a script, and it locked the screen, 3.) After closing emacs, the screen was still blocked, and nothing was clickable, 4.) Not knowing any non-gui ways to force a shutdown, I hard-booted the netbook, 5.) On reboot, the BIOS loaded, the "Ubuntu  Loading" progress bar came up, the marimba sounded and the Ubuntu bubbles background screen came up with a moveable cursor on it, 6.) No
[20:14] <wboykinm>  login was presented and no interface was available.   This has happened through a half-dozen reboots.  I've tried a few things via console login (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Troubleshooting/BlankScreen#Workaround A:  VESA Driver, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=121819), but the suggested prompts don't appear.  I'm sure this is a basic problem, and I seem to be missing something fundamental (I'm new to Linux; many apologies).
[20:14] <wboykinm>  Any ideas?
[20:14] <FloodBotK2> wboykinm: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[20:15] <Walzmyn> wboykinm: don't do that
[20:15] <wboykinm> Walzmyn: whould I aim straight for the forums?
[20:16] <Walzmyn> James147: that command true/false seems to just kick it in. I'm going to hunt down the one i'm looking foward
[20:16] <Walzmyn> wboykinm: don't copy/paste a huge chunk into IRC - it comes acros as spam on our screens
[20:16] <James147> Walzmyn: yeah... but at least it shows that the screen saver can be minipulated with dbus :)
[20:17] <Walzmyn> James147: yes, thanks for the help. I think we're on the right track
[20:17] <James147> wboykinm: would be better to post on the forums a detailed discription, then give us a brief overview with the link
[20:17] <Walzmyn> wboykinm:  you useing gnome or KDE?
[20:18] <wboykinm> Walzmyn: Ah.  Learning.  Thank you.
[20:18] <wboykinm> Walzmyn: Not sure.  gnome?
[20:19] <Walzmyn> wboykinm: when you go to the "start" menu is there a foot print or a big "K"
[20:19] <James147> wboykinm:
[20:19] <wboykinm> Walzmyn: footprint
[20:19] <Walzmyn> wboykinm: ok, you're using gnome
[20:20] <Walzmyn> wboykinm: this is #kubuntu - the KDE side of things. #ubuntu is the channel for gnome users
[20:20] <wboykinm> Walzmyn: I'll shift over then.  Thanks.
[20:21] <Walzmyn> wboykinm: you might need to re-install something with the plymothm theme engine, but I'm thinking it's the login stuff that needs adjusting and that will be part of gnome
[20:21] <James147> wboykinm: yeah, try asking in #ubuntu , but try to keep the question consist, things that are easier to read/understand are more likly to get an answer
[20:23] <Synjunitzu> James147, could yu help me change me background?
[20:23] <James147> Synjunitzu: umm.. right click the desktop > configure desktop... or just drag and drop the image from dolphin should do it
[20:24] <Synjunitzu> hmm.
[20:24] <Synjunitzu> will that work if "Background" the module isnt even in the "Desktop" module?
[20:24] <James147> Synjunitzu: ??
[20:25] <Synjunitzu> lol
[20:25] <Synjunitzu> http://www.kubuntu.org/docs/kquickguide/C/ch03s07.html
[20:25] <James147> Synjunitzu: afraid I need to leave now, but someone else might beable to help
[20:25] <Synjunitzu> look quick
[20:25] <Synjunitzu> lol
[20:25] <Synjunitzu> :(
[20:28] <Synjunitzu> sorted
[20:28] <Synjunitzu> :)
[20:30] <wboykinm> Walzmyn: Thanks.  Hopefully it's an easy one.
[20:44] <Walzmyn> Synjunitzu: what is your issue?
[20:45] <Synjunitzu> i figured it out
[20:58] <elijah> Does Kubuntu have a keyboard shortcut to "hide" a window, similar to OS X?
[20:58] <elijah> On mac I hit command + h and it hides it until I alt + tab back to it
[20:59] <elijah> That is "one" thing I guess I like about Mac
[20:59] <hagabaka> why not just minimize?
[20:59] <hagabaka> you can also use smooth-tasks to have a task bar that only displays an icon for each window
[20:59] <elijah> hagabaka: Do you know the keyboard shortcut for minimize?
[21:01] <hagabaka> no :p
[21:04] <hagabaka> elijah: looks like there is no default, but you can set it in "Global Keyboard Shortcuts" (Alt-F2 and type that name, or find it in system settings)
[21:05] <elijah> hagabaka: Do you know which component I select to set it?
[21:06] <elijah> hagabaka: I wish the search bar below components searched all components, that would be sweet!
[21:06] <hagabaka> hmm?
[21:06] <elijah> hagabaka: Found it, it is Kwin
[21:06] <hagabaka> oh that's what you mean
[21:08] <elijah> Do you know where I would control the look and action of the alt+tab action?
[21:08] <elijah> The one that flips through all your apps
[21:09] <hagabaka> desktop effects
[21:10] <max64> !ciao
[21:11] <elijah> hagabaka: Great, that worked. Now do you know how to always get the window switcher to show on my primary desktop?
[21:11] <elijah> hagabaka: Right now it is coming up on whatever screen has the active app. I have dual monitor setup.
[21:11] <elijah> I saw a setting once but forgot where it is
[21:12] <hagabaka> if you already checked the individual plugin settings in desktop effects, no idea
[21:12] <elijah> hmm, no I didn't knwo about that, let me see
[21:15] <elijah> hagabaka: I found the plugins but that is too specific for the overall action of it
[21:29] <Kubuntiac> Anyone know whether UbuntuOne uses webdav?
[21:30] <claydoh> Kubuntiac: don't think so
[21:31] <claydoh> it is iirc canonical-developed and not open
[21:31] <claydoh> but that is all I know
[21:31] <Kubuntiac> claydoh: The server is closed, but the client is open
[21:31] <Kubuntiac> I'm wondering about the client
[21:32] <claydoh> if it was webdav, we'd have a working KDE client  along time back :)
[21:34] <claydoh> Kubuntiac: I have been testing U1-kde off and on, apache logger is the guy who would know as he had been working on it
[21:36] <Kubuntiac> k thx, claydoh Will look for a client elsewhere...
[21:36] <claydoh> iirc the ubuntu client works, just no KDE integration
[21:37] <Kubuntiac> Yeah. What I want to work with is an OwnCloud server, not U1. Was wondering if U1 client could be modified to fit
[21:37] <Kubuntiac> But if it isn't webdav, then there's probably better options
[21:52] <asdfasdfasdfasdf> hello i'm using ubuntu 10.04.1 and  installed KDE when i choose it in kdm i get to see the splash screen for a while and then I get kicked back to kdm, gnome loggin in works fine, and my system seem to be fine what can i do?
[21:54] <no_u0> how do i add root to xhost?
[21:54] <no_u0> i cant open anything with root unless i disable access controls
[21:56] <alex______> i've just run tasksel to install my lamp but it seems like apache2 has not been configured to work with php5. i got a bit rusty as it's been a long time since my last lamp install. what should i add to the apache.conf please?
[21:59] <elijah> When using Krunner, I would like to be able to down arrow through the results. Is this possible?
[21:59] <elijah> Like Gnome Do or Quicksilver
[22:00] <MarkSS> In Konsole under /bin fusermount, unmount, su and others are highlighted in red.  Why are these highlighted in red and not others?
[22:00] <elijah> Also depending on when, Krunner appears at the top of either screen a or b and just below center of screen a on occasion, is there a way I can make it appear at the top of screen a, all the time?
[22:00] <elijah> MarkSS: Some files in terminal are highlighted, green, blue, red etc depending on certain characteristics.
[22:01] <elijah> There is a command you can run to turn it off but I have long forgotten.
[22:01] <MarkSS> What characteristics are associated with a red highlight?
[22:01] <elijah> MarkSS: I don't know, there is some sort of logic behind it, I just remember that it was irritating because it made some names hard to read.
[22:02] <elijah> I am still setting up so I may run into this again, previously it was on my Mac.
[22:02] <elijah> Our programmer found out that info above.
[22:03] <cortex_sk> MarkSS: man chmod will help you with those red files ;)
[22:03] <cortex_sk> 'set user or group ID on execution (s)'
[22:03] <elijah> I answered the Krunner question above, I switched to task oriented
[22:04] <elijah> It doesn;t seem like you can tell Krunner to "always" be in a certain area
[22:05] <elijah> Okay, I am trying to get Kubuntu setup. I am having issues with it always asking me for password access to access my 2 NTFS partitions (same logical drive). A user pointed me in the direction of using fsck sp? and I had more problems. Is this the right way to go about this?
[22:10] <elijah> Hmm, I see an option in removable media to automount on boot!! yay! Much easier than fsck
[22:10] <elijah> *fsck
[22:10] <elijah> no, fstab!
[22:10] <elijah> that was it
[22:21] <elijah> How do I stop Kopete from loading on startup?
[22:22] <elijah> It isn't listed in "startup and shutdown", that I can see at least.
[22:38] <elijah> How would I best mount ISO and DMG files from within Dolphin? I am used to just clicking them in Mac and them mounting that way. Can I do this in Dolphin?
[22:38] <claydoh> elijah: disable saved sessions
[22:38] <claydoh> elijah: I was catching up
[22:40] <claydoh> elijah: you would need to find a service-menu or use commandline to mount isos
[22:41] <claydoh> in dolhin'ssetings (kde 4.5. not sure about older versions) you can go to 'services' and then download new items
