[00:10] <n8w> hey
[00:11] <n8w> ive formated my swap partition n since then i keep gettin: swapon: cannot find the device for UUID=f3c84cbe-4f72-4921-a73c-1b7b7a7e330d
[00:11] <Torch> n8w: you cannot format a swap partition ;-)
[00:12] <well_laid_lawn> it prob has a diff uuid
[00:12] <Torch> n8w: the uuid has changed
[00:12] <Torch> n8w: adjust your /etc/fstab accordingly
[00:12] <Torch> n8w: get the new uuid with blkid
[00:12] <n8w> Torch:  ive been there,but i couldnt find the new UUID
[00:12] <Torch> n8w: from a shell, run blkid
[00:12] <Torch> n8w: it should list all file systems and swap partitions on your system
[00:13] <n8w> Torch:  ohh yee got it
[00:13] <n8w> /dev/sda7: UUID="798963f2-49d1-4eb8-8d1b-f5c211a50689" TYPE="swsuspend"
[00:13] <n8w> Torch:  hmm the weird thing is that gparted shows my swap partition as unformated
[00:13] <Torch> n8w: don't use gparted.
[00:14] <Torch> dolio: this is kubuntu ;-)
[00:14] <Torch> ooops, sorry dolio
[00:14] <Torch> n8w: that was for you ;-)
[00:14] <n8w> Torch:  ;)
[00:15] <Torch> n8w: use kde partition manager if you want a GUI. or run swapon and swapoff from a shell to see if it works.
[00:18] <n8w> Torch:  hmm ive changed fstab,but after runin swapon -a i got this: swapon: /dev/sda7: software suspend data detected. Rewriting the swap signature.
[00:19] <n8w> Torch:  then ive run it again n i didnt get any output
[00:19] <n8w> Torch:  how do i test whether the swap is functional?
[00:20] <Torch> n8w: no output means no error.
[00:20] <n8w> Torch:  :)) though so
[00:20] <n8w> Torch:  shall i restart or smth?
[00:20] <Torch> n8w: cat /proc/swaps tells you if it's being used
[00:21] <Torch> n8w: no. this is not windows ;-)
[00:21] <n8w> Torch:  /dev/sda7                               partition       4208988 0       -1
[00:21] <Torch> n8w: if the partition is listed, it's ok.
[00:21] <n8w> Torch:  aight;)
[00:21] <n8w> Torch:  thx
[00:22] <n8w> im gonna try to hibernate
[00:22] <n8w> :D
[00:41] <cjae_> will kde 4.5 be given to 10.04 only through backports?
[00:43] <well_laid_lawn> there's a ppa for it ...
[00:44] <well_laid_lawn> http://kubuntu.org/news/kde-sc-45
[00:44] <well_laid_lawn> it's in the topic
[00:49] <corey> can anyone see me?
[00:50] <well_laid_lawn> corey:  nope - just what you type
[00:50] <well_laid_lawn> :]
[01:27] <wardgom> \help
[01:28] <Torch> wardgom: what's your problem?
[01:29] <wardgom> Sorry, orchestra newbie.  You weren't supposed to see.that.
[01:29] <Torch> wardgom: well.. and the band plays on ;-)
[01:30] <well_laid_lawn> heh
[02:16] <steven> anyone know how to change my main hardrives and move all my system files
[02:17] <well_laid_lawn> steven:  I use mondo and mindi for that - dd will work too
[02:20] <steven> dd? you got xvidcap
[02:21] <well_laid_lawn> never used xvidcap - dd copies files/partitions etc
[02:25] <steven> ok just seeing if you can show me how to on dvd that how thay do it on youtube thank you.
[02:28] <well_laid_lawn> I don't know about that youtube clip at all - what did they use?
[03:25] <multipass> anyone able to help me with a Kate editor FTP problem?
[03:46] <brian___> Hello
[03:46] <brian___> I've got a good number of issues
[03:47] <brian___> and I'm wondering if anyone feels like helping me
[03:47] <brian___> :D
[03:53] <claydoh> brian___: ask away, someone might be able to help
[03:53] <brian___> Alright
[03:53] <brian___> So after much deliberation
[03:53] <brian___> and a nice sale
[03:53] <brian___> I finally purchased a new laptop, an Inspiron 1764
[03:53] <brian___> Now, I have come to discover, sadly, that it has a few issues with Kubuntu 10.04
[03:53] <brian___> Namely
[03:53] <brian___> The Wireless card installed doesn't work
[03:53] <brian___> as well as the hibernate function doesn't work either
[03:55] <claydoh> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/Laptop/Lucid/Reports/DellInspiron1764
[03:55] <claydoh> brian___: so it seems the suspend issue is already known
[03:55] <claydoh> brian___: the wireless need the broadcom sta driver it seems
[03:55] <brian___> Strangely it seems to say the wifi thing isn't a problem
[03:56] <claydoh> yes
[03:56] <brian___> Oh
[03:56] <brian___> I think I figured it out
[03:56] <brian___> Lol
[03:56] <brian___> But I still have to fix the suspend thing
[03:56] <FloodBotK2> brian___: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[03:57] <claydoh> brian___: I was just goinf to say  that  ^^^
[03:57] <brian___> I guess the broadcom sta driver wasn't enabled by default
[03:58] <brian___> But this non hibernating thing is a serious issue
[03:58] <claydoh> brian___: usually there should be a prompt to install  the restricted driver you need, but you can do that from the Driver manager applet
[03:59] <brian___> I've got the driver installing for the wifi
[03:59] <claydoh> but also note this wiki page is one person's report iirc, perhaps someone has discovered a fix
[04:01] <brian___> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1460681
[04:01] <brian___> TThere is apost there
[04:01] <brian___> Who claims to be able to solve both wifi and the sleep function
[04:01] <brian___> but it involves screwing with the kernel
[04:02] <claydoh> perhaps this is fixed in the next version
[04:02] <brian___> Thats not out to October 10th is it?
[04:03] <claydoh> right
[04:03] <claydoh> but trying a different kernel isn't too hard, it adds an extra entry to your boot menu, so  if it does not work, you can boot back into the previous one
[04:06] <claydoh> but you might also try a livecd version of maverick to see if it does supend, i  *think* you can suspend from a livecd, never have tried that myself
[04:07] <claydoh> new hardware often has thos sort of trouble sometimes, as the kernel folks have to figure out how the bits work
[04:08]  * claydoh would love to have the problem of new hardware :)
[04:09] <claydoh> no complaints, but my  7 year old laptop is just beginning to show its age
[04:48] <lordganesh> How to establish internet connection to bsnl dsl modem in Knetworkmanager?
[04:50] <apple_cat> lordganesh: How are you connecting to the modem?
[04:52] <apple_cat> lordganesh: I'm assuming you want to use the internet on a kubuntu computer using your dsl modem. If you are connecting through ethernet in most cases the connection will be automatic, but if you are trying to connect through wireless it probably won't be automatic as you might have a password to use the wirless
[04:54] <juankrlos> holap¿
[04:55] <juankrlos> hello?

[09:07] <tish> hi, anybody knows how to put kmail in the message indicator in kde 4.5.1?
[09:24] <IIVQ> morning all
[09:24] <IIVQ> I started up kubuntu this morning and I have no window borders/titlebars
[09:25] <IIVQ> and the keyboard stays in the last open window (i.e. firefox) even though I can mouse to other windows
[09:27] <IIVQ> anyone know what I can do with this?
[09:32] <IIVQ> there just seems to be no WM at all
[09:47] <supermagnum> hello, does anyone know if the driver for intel 82852/855GM chipset supports openGL ?
[09:48] <IIVQ> hi super
[09:49] <IIVQ> I don't but thsi channel seems pretty dead
[09:50] <supermagnum> im am trying to run freeorion, but it looks like theres some problem with openGL since i get a segmentation fault error..
[09:51] <well_laid_lawn> supermagnum:  tried reading the log to find out?
[09:51] <supermagnum> well_laid: thats the only message in the log
[09:52] <supermagnum> :~$ freeorion
[09:52] <supermagnum> Segmentation fault
[09:52] <well_laid_lawn> supermagnum:  I meant the X ;og - /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[09:52] <well_laid_lawn> supermagnum:  I meant the X log - /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[09:52] <supermagnum> ill take a look
[09:54] <supermagnum> thats a huge logfile..
[09:55] <supermagnum> is there a place i can paste it ?
[09:57] <well_laid_lawn> !paste
[09:58] <supermagnum> well_laid : http://www.heypasteit.com/clip/NAL
[09:59] <well_laid_lawn> supermagnum:  you can use the tab button to complete nicks - try typing wel and hitting the tab button
[10:00] <supermagnum> well_laid_lawn: ok
[10:02] <well_laid_lawn> supermagnum:  looks like you are using the vesa driver there
[10:02] <well_laid_lawn> not the intel one
[10:02] <supermagnum> ah.. how do i fix that ?
[10:03] <supermagnum> the one that supports intel is installed
[10:03] <well_laid_lawn> the old school way (which will still work) is to make a xorg.conf file or google for one, and put it into /etc/X11/ and restart the x server
[10:05] <well_laid_lawn> I would google   intel 82852/855GM xorg.conf
[10:05] <supermagnum> well_laid_lawn: what it i do unistall the vesa drivers ?
[10:05] <well_laid_lawn> supermagnum:  you don't need to uninstall it - just offer X a new config filre
[10:05] <well_laid_lawn> *file
[10:06] <supermagnum> ok
[10:10] <supermagnum> i changed the "vesa" value in the file to "intel".
[10:11] <well_laid_lawn> I don't think that is the driver name
[10:12] <well_laid_lawn> oops - it is the right name supermagnum
[10:12] <supermagnum> well_laid_lawn: hehe
[10:12] <well_laid_lawn> try logging out/in
[10:12] <supermagnum> ok

[12:35] <ner0x> Techtronic: Thanks! I found blkid in the meantime.
[12:40] <ner0x> Techtronic: What happens if it doesn't show the id? /dev/sdd3 isn't an option?

[13:42] <phoenix_> is there a channel for general computer hardware queries
[13:42] <Pici> phoenix_: ##hardware
[13:43] <phoenix_> Pici: its not working
[13:43] <Pici> phoenix_: You need to register/identify to join
[13:43] <Pici> !register | phoenix_
[13:53] <phoenix_firebrd> Pici: i joined the channel .thank you
[14:13] <phoenix_firebrd> Pici: are you there
[14:13] <Pici> phoenix_firebrd: yes.
[14:14] <phoenix_firebrd> the guys in the hardware a talking out of topic and also political rubbish. i need small help from you to configure  harrware monitoring widget
[14:15] <whilo_> hi
[14:16] <phoenix_firebrd> Pici: the guys in the hardware a talking out of topic and also political rubbish. i need small help from you to configure  harrware monitoring widget
[14:16] <whilo_> i have installed 10.10 on one of my machines and to my surprise the radeon 5750 worked both with kernel mode-setting and even with kwin opengl composition
[14:16] <Pici> phoenix_firebrd: I'm a bit busy here at the moment though, perhaps someone else could help you.  Or perhaps try #ubuntu
[14:16] <Pici> whilo_: Maverick support is in #ubuntu+1 only.
[14:16] <whilo_> it has some delays (feels like slow motion effect) in animations though and full screen video (especially flash) is too slow, even though it is a quadcore
[14:17] <whilo_> Pici: ok thx
[14:17] <phoenix_firebrd> Pici: its ok i will manage. thank you
[14:25] <eMyller> heya
[14:25] <eMyller> i've just installed newest xorg stuff
[14:25] <eMyller> and i can't use desktop effects anymore. :)
[14:26] <eMyller> if i disable functionality checks, i can't even click a button, it becomes to slow
[14:26] <eMyller> how do i revert a dist-upgrade? :D
[14:28] <well_laid_lawn> I would check the X log first
[14:30] <eMyller> well_laid_lawn: any specific information to find in it?
[14:31] <eMyller> i see nothing relevant...
[14:31] <well_laid_lawn> something about dri or gl not being enabled I would think
[14:32] <eMyller> hm, nothing. i'm tailing the log and all i see after trying to re-enable effects is:
[14:32] <eMyller> [  1291.102] (II) intel(0): Printing DDC gathered Modelines:
[14:32] <eMyller> [  1291.102] (II) intel(0): Modeline "1280x800"x0.0   68.90  1280 1301 1333 1408  800 801 804 813 -hsync -vsync (48.9 kHz)
[14:32] <well_laid_lawn> try a grep -i  for dri
[14:34] <eMyller> well_laid_lawn: http://dpaste.com/248356/
[14:34] <well_laid_lawn> k
[14:35] <eMyller> 'k' what? :P
[14:35] <well_laid_lawn> seems fine there - k = ok I'll look
[14:36] <eMyller> oh, ty
[14:36] <eMyller> yeah, it seems fine... but it doesnt work.
[14:36] <well_laid_lawn> line 35 says dri2 is enabled so that isn't the issue
[14:36] <eMyller> i shouldnt've installed edge versions. :S
[14:37] <soboku> Im sure this has been covered but can someone give me the url to add firefox 4 to kubuntu 10.10 software managers source list?
[14:37] <well_laid_lawn> you play with fire you'll get burnt sometimes :]
[14:37] <eMyller> hehe, yeah. this is not the first time. :B
[14:37] <well_laid_lawn> soboku:  I'm sure someone in #ubuntu+1 would have done that
[14:38] <well_laid_lawn> !maverick
[14:38] <eMyller> well_laid_lawn: if i remove the edgers' ppa and add a stable one, how can i revert? :D
[14:38] <eMyller> purge xorg && install xorg
[14:38] <eMyller> ?
[14:38] <soboku> ok thanks
[14:39] <well_laid_lawn> eMyller:  purging xorg might take kde with it
[14:39] <well_laid_lawn> "might"
[14:40] <eMyller> hm, actually just the meta packages kubuntu-desktop and xorg.
[14:40] <eMyller> nothing else.
[14:41] <well_laid_lawn> that'll be fine then - the meta package is an mt thing
[14:41] <eMyller> also it'll do nothing. :\
[14:45] <vbgunz> im looking for a way to one click my system into going beast and consume all power for performance and then one click to go professional jew. anybody know of something like this?
[14:46] <well_laid_lawn> I use cpufreq and a bash script I made for that vbgunz
[14:47] <vbgunz> well_laid_lawn: I have an idea how to set up solid-powermanagement in a script for that but that doesn't effect nvidias power management. I am only thinking in terms of cpu/gpu here. am I missing something or are those the only two that matter?
[14:48] <well_laid_lawn> I wouldn't worry about the gpu personally
[14:50] <vbgunz> if I leave nvidias power facility to remain at adapative I get some bad effect performance. everything feels just a tiny bit choppy. if I put nvidia at full performance, effects work out like a champ. so it does effect experience somewhat
[14:53] <well_laid_lawn> I no nothing about nvidias power management sorry
[14:53] <well_laid_lawn> *know
[14:54] <vbgunz> well_laid_lawn: its cool. I just thought there would be a magical plasma widget that would balance this for me. I looked through them all and could find various monitors but nothing along the line of one click monster/wimp
[14:55] <well_laid_lawn> vbgunz:  evidently it is not too hard to make plasma widgets tho I haven't tried
[14:55] <James147> vbgunz: the battery widget can switch powermanagment profiles
[14:56] <well_laid_lawn> you would still need cpufreq tho
[14:56] <James147> vbgunz: (also krunner)
[14:56] <well_laid_lawn> o
[14:57] <vbgunz> I thought solid-powermanagement did this stuff. is that an aliad for cpufreq? I can using solid-pm query and set performance for my cpu
[14:58] <vbgunz> using krunner and searching for cpufreq, a plasma widget did come up saying I need plasma-cupfreq
[14:58] <well_laid_lawn> there you go then :]
[14:59] <well_laid_lawn> "a magical plasma widget"
[14:59] <James147> vbgunz: I would set up profiles in the powermanagement part of system settings, then use the batterywidget or krunner to switch profiles (you can set scripts to run when a profile is switched if it dosent have the settings you need
[15:00] <vbgunz> well_laid_lawn: I can't help but think this will only affect my cpu performance. I was looking for something that would affect all performance including nvidia. btw, no repos seem to have the plasma-cpufreq package. an apt-cache search shows nothing either :/
[15:00] <vbgunz> gonna search for cpufreq, see whats up
[15:01] <vbgunz> right now I am using miserwares granola application. I am gonna see if that helps
[15:02] <avihay> say, how do I switch between powerdevil profiles?
[15:02] <James147> avihay: the battery widget or type in krunner "power profile XXX"
[15:04] <well_laid_lawn> vbgunz:  afaik changing the gpu power profile is a fairly new thing - but I am far from all knowing...
[15:04] <avihay> say, how do I switch between powerdevil profiles?
 avihay: the battery widget or type in krunner "power profile XXX"
[15:06] <avihay> oh, thats new. thanks well_laid_lawn
[15:06] <well_laid_lawn> avihay:  best to thank James147 - all I did was copy/paste :]
[15:09] <avihay> oh, thanks James147. my connection is *insert corny metaphore for unstable*
[15:09] <well_laid_lawn> heh
[15:12] <vbgunz> oh damn
[15:13] <vbgunz> gotta test hibernation
[15:13] <James147> avihay: no problem :)
[15:14]  * James147 waves vbgunz good luck
[15:31] <chinmaya> I want to know is kdelibs a part of the KUbuntu distro or it needs to be installed separately ?
[15:31] <James147> chinmaya: if it wasent kubuntu would be kubuntu :)
[15:31] <well_laid_lawn> !info kdelibs
[15:32] <well_laid_lawn> ^^ says it is optional tho
[15:32] <James147> !info kdelibs5
[15:33] <James147> ^^ thats the kde4 one
[15:33] <well_laid_lawn> that's better :]
[15:33] <chinmaya> how to check which packages come with the KUbuntu distro
[15:33] <well_laid_lawn> I didn't think it made sense...
[15:34] <well_laid_lawn> dpkg -l   ?
[15:34] <chinmaya> cant we see it in KpackageKit ?
[15:34] <James147> well_laid_lawn: on a freshinstall at least ^^
[15:35] <James147> chinmaya: you can
[15:35] <James147> well, by catigory...
[15:35] <James147> dpkg -l is easier :)
[15:36]  * James147 cant wait for kpackagekit in maverick :D
[15:36] <chinmaya> yess
[15:37] <chinmaya> was trying to install Maverick today and it crashed at the installer window . :(
[15:38] <well_laid_lawn> chinmaya:  at this stage of it's developement that prob means a bad cd burn or iso
[15:38] <well_laid_lawn> "probably"
[15:39] <James147> !md5
[15:40] <James147> ^^ check the image first woulld be a good step
[15:40] <lemoor> Hi!
[15:40] <James147> oo, kpackagkit in maverick can list all installed packages :D
[15:41] <chinmaya> in october its geting officially released ..any idea on the date
[15:41]  * James147 also likes the import/export packagelist in it
[15:42] <James147> chinmaya: think its normally the first few weeks... will check now
[15:42] <James147> chinmaya: set for 10th, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MaverickReleaseSchedule  it is sometimes slightly late depending on last miniute problems
[15:43] <chinmaya> hmm..thats gud to hear ...i downloaded the beta version dvd today..
[15:45] <James147> chinmaya: I would check the cd and image to see if they are cruppt, it could have just been that
[15:45] <James147> chinmaya: anyreason you dled the dvd? for most people the cd should be enough (save on bandwidth/time)
[15:45] <chinmaya> usually i dwnld the dvd
[15:46] <chinmaya> takes about 3 to 4 hrs for me a 3.5 gb dvd
[15:46] <James147> chinmaya: :) the cd should be enough. and will dl much quicker... most the time you would only use whats on the cd anyway, and download the rest form the online repos
[15:47] <chinmaya> i have installed suse , ubuntu dvd's and also i am running the 10.04 version but it never crashed
[15:47] <James147> (its more designed to install this off of if you done have a fast connection to one computer)
[15:48] <chinmaya> hmm..thats true
[15:49] <chinmaya> in windows we do have system restore ..do we have something in kubuntu as well ?
[15:52] <Torch> chinmaya: yes. it's called "sane package management" ;-)
[16:11] <slow-motion> hi
[16:51] <Taggnostr> hello
[16:52] <viren> hi there
[16:53] <Taggnostr> I'm having some problem configuring two monitors with an nvidia card. The first is connect through DVI and has 1920x1200 resolution and it works fine. The second is connected through VGA and has a 1680x1050 resolution, but the nvidia control panel shows 1280x1024 as max available resolution. How can I set 1680x1050?
[17:01] <glaucous> (From #ubuntu) Is there a way to suppress sleep when a specific application is running? Amarok for instance, doesn't suppress sleep when playing music.
[17:04] <Linex> What brand of wireless mouse and wireless keyboard is good for linux ?
[17:20] <Scunizi> Where do I find the Akonadi control error logs?
[17:22] <dasKreech> Scunizi: I think you can look at them from the akonadi systray applet
[17:22] <dasKreech> Mostlikely they are in ~/.kde/share/apps
[17:24] <Scunizi> dasKreech: ok.. I'll take a look.. on every boot Kontact report and error with Akonadi.. after stopping Akonadi and restarting it, it syncs fine and I have access to my contact data.. but the Akonadi server self test report a red "X" next to 1> No resource agents found 2> Previous Akonadi server error log and 3> Current Akonadi control error log.... drives me nuts.
[17:25] <dasKreech> Scunizi: wouldn't #akonadi be a good place to query?
[17:25] <Scunizi> probably.. didn't even think to see if they had a channel.. thanks.

[18:58] <ubuntu> how can i fix this?
[18:59] <ubuntu> i guess UUID's are unsuitable in this situation
[19:07] <ubuntu> anybody? bump!
[19:10] <yzraell> hola
[19:10] <yzraell> alguien que me pueda ayudar
[19:10] <yzraell> hello
[19:10] <yzraell> please who can help me
[19:10] <BluesKaj> ubuntu, run sudo blkid  and look for something like dev/sda1: UUID="5FF950D1187A8626" TYPE="ntfs"
[19:12] <BluesKaj> !ask |yzraell
[19:12] <ubuntu> BluesKaj: already did this. if i mount /dev/sda3(D:\) by uuid in fstab, would ubuntu work?
[19:13] <yzraell> chanel in spanish i'm new in ubuntu
[19:13] <ToxinPowe> yzraell: #archilinux-es
[19:14] <BluesKaj> ubuntu, don't think so , my windows partition isn't even listed in fstab
[19:15] <ubuntu> the part of my fstab is "/host/ubuntu/disks/root.disk /               ext4    loop,errors=remount-ro 0       1"
[19:16] <BluesKaj> ubuntu, mtab seems to handling the whole drive including windows partitions
[19:16] <ubuntu> how do i get rid of "the disk drive for / is not ready yet or not mounted" error?
[19:17] <BluesKaj> ubuntu, check etc/mtab for your windows partirion , mine is : /dev/sda1 /media/disk fuseblk rw,nosuid,nodev,allow_other,blksize=4096 0 0
[19:18] <ubuntu> the same but for /dev/sda3
[19:19] <yzraell> alguien que me peuda ayudar por favor
[19:20] <ubuntu> and i can see ubuntu/disks/root.disk there
[19:20] <ubuntu> what's the matter then?
[19:27] <ubuntu> what's user_id=0,group_id=0 in /etc/mtab?
[19:29] <chaaya> i've been using kontact for imap mail to three accounts, and starting on wednesday, for no apparent reason, it will not update the email, will not open email, and provides no errors/dialogs. just... no go.
[19:29] <chaaya> you open it, it shows the mail folders as they were on wednesday, and that's it. if you reply to a message in list, a dialog about download the message comes up, and nothing happens, it just sits there.
[19:30] <BluesKaj> ubuntu, so what isn't working for you ..we need to get back to basics here , what is your computer not doing that we need to fix ?
[19:31] <ubuntu> BluesKaj: on load it says "the disk drive for / is not ready yet or not mounted" and prompts for 's' or 'm' i.e. skip or fix manually
[19:31] <ubuntu> i'll post fstab and mtab now
[19:32] <BluesKaj> ubuntu, use F key , mine does the same once in a while , dunno whay
[19:32] <BluesKaj> err why
[19:32] <ubuntu> http://pastebin.ca/1948285 mtab
[19:33] <ubuntu> BluesKaj: what do u mean/ Just pressin' 'F' key when i see this message?
[19:33] <BluesKaj> that's at boot up, right ?
[19:34] <ubuntu> http://pastebin.ca/1948286 fstab
[19:34] <ubuntu> yep
[19:34] <BluesKaj> I saw that
[19:35] <BluesKaj>  yeah just hit the F key for fix .sometimes you have to hit it twice , there's a small bug causing the problem akaik
[19:35] <BluesKaj> afaik
[19:35] <ubuntu> it shows kubuntu logo and a progressbar below, after which i got this eror
[19:35] <ubuntu> BluesKaj: Thanks, will try that
[19:36]  * ubuntu leaves
[19:36] <BluesKaj> ubuntu, is your pc 4yrs or older , it sems to be a prob on some so called older pcs
[19:44] <chaaya> anyone else having Kontact issues?
[20:14] <Qwert> How to find package memory details from KPackageKit?
[20:17] <Pici> Qwert: What do you mean by 'Memory details'?
[20:17] <Qwert> Pici: Like how in synaptic, we can find the amount of MB being downloaded for a particular package..
[20:19] <Qwert> Pici: I only want to know the memory/size of package
[20:21] <Pici> Qwert: I personally don't know, but was trying to see what you were looking for.
[20:22] <Qwert> Pici: No problem. Anyways thanks :)
[20:27] <ubu_> salut
[20:27] <ubu_> ^^
[20:35] <skafti> hei
[20:36] <zeta> hi
[20:36] <skafti> how can i choose what programs open automatcly in startup }
[20:37] <Guest77979> hi
[20:37] <skafti> I used this program 2 months ago and it still opens when i start the computer up :)
[20:37] <glaucous> skafti: Checked Autostart?
[20:38] <glaucous> skafti: Otherwise do 'cat /etc/rc.local'
[20:38] <glaucous> And see if it autostarts there
[21:07] <v3nd3tta``> !iso
[21:09] <v3nd3tta``> !burning
[21:09] <Qwert> v3nd3tta: What are you looking for?
[21:09] <v3nd3tta``> idk a friend wants to install mint 9
[21:09] <v3nd3tta``> is there a mint chan here?
[21:10] <maco> !mintsupport
[21:12] <v3nd3tta``> ty maco :>
[21:49] <Scunizi> do Synaptic Package manager and kPackageKit make use of the same database or method of knowing what is and isn't installed?
[21:49] <xlive> umm hay guys
[21:49] <James147> Scunizi: as far as I know they do... they can also be used with apt-get or aptitude
[21:49] <xlive> I kinda need a help acctually I should be on ubuntu channel .. but accidently I pasted some porn link out there
[21:50] <xlive> actually it was in my clipbored .. and I thougth pasted somthing else
[21:50] <xlive> and I just got banned ..
[21:50] <xlive> umm Im using irssi . I dont know how to use thing thing clearly .
[21:50] <xlive> kinda new to linux
[21:50] <Scunizi> James147: thanks.. kpackagekit doesn't have a reinstall or purge option..
[21:51] <James147> Scunizi: hmm, yeah, kpackagekit is the newist packagmangment software and so is missing quite a few features... the one in maverick is shiny though :)
[21:52] <James147> (not that you should upgrade... yet... :)  )
[21:53] <James147> Scunizi: I tend to every now and then run: "sudo aptitude purge ~c" to clean up the config files :)
[21:53] <James147> ( ~c  matches packages that have been removed but still have config files about: "aptitude search ~c" will list then)
[21:54] <dasKreech> Thought that would match the home directory of anyone named 'c'
[21:54] <James147> dasKreech: not in aptitude as far as I know... at least I think it was ~
[21:55] <James147> yeah, ~c in aptitude matches removed (not purged) packages
[21:56] <dasKreech> ah ok
[21:56] <dasKreech> :)
[21:56] <James147> dasKreech: also, cd ~j jsut says no file or directory found, dosent seem to match home
[21:57] <dasKreech> James147: because you don't have a user named j
[21:57] <dasKreech> try cd ~root
[21:57] <James147> ahh yeah :)
[21:58] <dasKreech> ~/j is your user's directory labeled j under your home directory
[21:58] <James147> dasKreech: not sure how aptitude gets the ~c then :) ... but it does
[21:58] <dasKreech> ~j is the user j's home directory
[21:59] <James147>  (also ~i for installed and ~p for not installed)
[21:59] <James147> s/p/d/
[21:59] <dasKreech> James147: probably it's a fall through. If bash finds a user named c then it will replace that with a path since there isn't then it passes it along as is which Aptitude then uses
[22:00]  * James147 wonders what happens if he creates a user named c
[22:00] <dasKreech> adduser d will probably break that
[22:00] <James147> :)
[22:00] <dasKreech> or c
[22:00] <dasKreech> try it
[22:01] <Scunizi> James147: yea.. I use apt-get a lot.. but sometimes I find a need for the graphical interface just to find a package that I'm not sure of how to spell or really even what it is.
[22:01] <James147> dasKreech: yup, it breaks it (silently :S )
[22:02]  * James147 uses aptitude search for that...
[22:02] <dasKreech> James147: thought so. Remove the user (or at least the home directory entry in /etc/passwd and it should work again
[22:02] <dasKreech> James147: Not being able to spell greatly hampers conducive search without an autocorrect
[22:03] <James147> dasKreech: have you seen my spelling :)  and does kpackagekit autocorrect spelling?
[22:04] <James147> Scunizi: but eitherway, you sould be fine to use any commbonation of apt-get, aptitude kpackagekit or synaptic  without issue
[22:05] <dasKreech> James147: I was speaking about Scunizi's comment. searching on the command line without having an auto correct and bad spelling is a little difficult
[22:05] <James147> (they all, essentually rely on dpkg )
[22:05] <dasKreech> The comand line makes the assumption that you know what you are doing
[22:05] <dasKreech> The Gui will do search as you type or some ridiculous thing like that
[22:05] <dasKreech> helps a lot if you are clueless (which a lot of guis assume)
[22:06] <James147> dasKreech: the way I have seen kpackagekit work, it seems to work the same as if I did a aptitude search  (was ment to be my comment)
[22:06] <dasKreech> ah
[22:06] <Scunizi> it seems I have Adobe flash player browser plugin installed for version 1:2.8.2 for my 64 bit install... :(
[22:06]  * dasKreech shrugs. Don't really use it that much
[22:07] <Scunizi> How do I tell what version of flash in currently installed?  (Non free version)
[22:08] <James147> Scunizi: the non free flash is in package: flashplayer-installer
[22:08] <James147> well... that package installes it :)
[22:08] <James147> (it should grab it from the web and install it)
[22:08] <James147> sorry, flashplugin-installer
[22:09] <Scunizi> James147: ah .. I was wondering why I couldn't find it.
[22:13] <tommasos> #sex
[22:14] <tommasos> ~fenris@ubuntu/member/fenris-).
[22:14] <dasKreech> You are not allowed for #sex
[22:16] <Scunizi> Well... that fixed my flash problem... installed 10.1 and the right plugin and viola!  an online work app driven by adobe air with a .net middleware now works on 64 bit..
[22:17]  * James147 votes for html5
[22:17] <Scunizi> me too...

[23:06] <dasKreech> incentient: is there a last accessed date on the files? or any process owned by that user?
[23:06] <Waleed> how can i do so
[23:06] <dasKreech> Waleed: less ~username/.xsession-errors
[23:07] <incentient> the file size changed

[23:08] <incentient> but i was going to say, on my working installs the size is 114032
[23:08] <dasKreech> Perhaps a backup being written into the filesystems?
[23:08] <incentient> access dates stayed the same 2009-10-06
[23:08] <Waleed> dasKreech: it has a lot of lines in it

[23:25] <dasKreech> WW is a warning normally doesn't mean anything drastic but still
[23:25]  * James147 wonders if Waleed has kubuntu-desktop installed...
[23:26] <Waleed> fglrx: No matching Devices section for instance (busid PCI:0@1:0:1)found
[23:27] <incentient> thanks again for the help
[23:27] <incentient> wow im screwed lol
[23:27] <dasKreech> James147: :-)
[23:27] <incentient> goodnight
[23:27] <dasKreech> incentient: Ha ha get a live CD and scan for rootkits
[23:27] <Waleed> James147: i think its not installed
[23:28] <Waleed> :)
[23:28] <Waleed> I figured that out now
[23:28] <James147> Waleed: what was it ?
[23:28] <dasKreech> Waleed: ha :) ok from your recovery console run sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[23:28] <dasKreech> technically you don't need the sudo but ...
[23:29] <Waleed> dasKreech: I did that but it hangs with replace mysql-server-5.1
[23:29] <James147> Waleed: hangs for how long?
[23:30] <v3nd3tta``> uhm mysql is buggy
[23:30] <Waleed> James147: never respond again
[23:30] <dasKreech> stop mysql then run apt-get install mysql
[23:30] <v3nd3tta``> maybe you have to kill the process to be finished
[23:30] <Waleed> I have to restsrt the system
[23:31] <Waleed> can i install the kubuntu-desktop only without installing the updates?
[23:32] <James147> Waleed: I think you problem was caused by intrupting an upgrade... best to try to fix all the packages :)
[23:33] <Waleed> James147: 3 days now trying to fix this mysql thing but it does not fix
[23:33] <dasKreech> Waleed: yes
[23:34] <dasKreech> Waleed: unless you started one then stopped it
[23:34] <dasKreech> dpkg needs to finish it in which case try runing apt-get -f install -a
[23:36] <Waleed> dasKreech: I want to pass the mysql installition to install the kubuntu desktop firstly
[23:36] <dasKreech> Waleed: if it's any KDE past 4.3 it will want mysql
[23:36] <dasKreech> fix mysql
[23:36] <dasKreech> stop it running
[23:36] <dasKreech> then run apt-get -f install mysql
[23:37] <Waleed> how can i stop it
[23:38] <dasKreech> sudo /etc/init.d/mysql stop
[23:38] <Waleed> dasKreech: my kde is the latest
[23:39] <dasKreech> Waleed: stop mysql and then update just it with apt-get install -f mysql
[23:39] <dasKreech> the -f means fix it
[23:39] <Waleed> when I do stop it hangs too
[23:40] <dasKreech> Waleed: ha ha nice
[23:40] <dasKreech> wait
[23:40] <Waleed> :-)
[23:40] <dasKreech> you mean you stopped it then did the apt-get -f install
[23:40] <dasKreech> or trying to stop it hangs the system ?
[23:41] <Waleed> dasKreech: when i try to stop mysql the system hangs
[23:41] <dasKreech> Waleed: great :)
[23:41] <dasKreech> ctrl+C
[23:42] <Waleed> yes
[23:42] <Waleed> it back to the command line
[23:43] <James147> Waleed: (for your informations, ctrl+c asks the current process to stop when is doing)
[23:43] <dasKreech> Waleed: ok ps aux | grep mysql
[23:43] <dasKreech> Waleed: Sorry Ctrl+C asks the shell to stop the job from working. It ends it doing any work
[23:43] <dasKreech> You can have it continue work by pressing Ctrl+z if it's stuck
[23:45] <James147> (not much point in it continuing in the abckgroud if its not doing anything :)
[23:45] <dasKreech> James147: I know just informing
[23:46] <dasKreech> Waleed: did the ps aux | grep mysql command report anything ?
[23:46] <James147> dasKreech: :) so was I... sorta
[23:46] <James147> (other then finding the grep command)
[23:47] <Waleed> dasKreech: it only gives the grep process
[23:47] <dasKreech> Waleed: Excellent
[23:47] <dasKreech> try apt-get -f install mysql
[23:48] <Waleed> dasKreech: couldn't find package mysql
[23:48] <dasKreech> ha it lies ... maybe
[23:49] <dasKreech> try mysql-server ?
[23:49] <Waleed> done
[23:50] <Waleed> dasKreech: the installtion done
[23:51] <James147> Waleed: now try "apt-get -f install"
[23:52] <Waleed> James147: all the packages installed now
[23:52] <James147> Waleed: have you install kubuntu-desktop as well?
[23:52] <Waleed> waaaaaaaaaaaw
[23:53] <Waleed> back to my desktop
[23:53] <Rounin> Hello! I want to install the new beta, but it says it's going to remove network-manager-kde?
[23:53] <Waleed> loooollllllllllllllllllllllllly
[23:53] <Waleed> thaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaank you guys
[23:53] <dasKreech> Rounin: yep
[23:53] <Rounin> So does it use something else instead?
[23:54] <dasKreech> Waleed: ha ha sure. Some command line fu will get you through anything that is above hardware failure or you deleting your USB and network drivers :)
