[00:04] <Matisse> hi
[00:05] <Matisse> i'm working on some audio problems, but no I read in a guide ( HOWTO: PulseAudio Fixes & System-Wide Equalizer Support):
[00:05] <Matisse> Note 4: Kubuntu users: Don't follow this guide - PulseAudio isn't used in your distribution.
[00:05] <Matisse> does that mean i did install pulseAudio on my own?
[00:06] <James147> Matisse: kubuntu 10.10 siwtched to using pulseaudio i beleave
[00:07] <Matisse> i still have 10.04 :)
[00:07] <James147> Matisse: I think it was installed on 10.04, but i dont know much much it was used
[00:07] <Matisse> ok, so i just ignore that note
[00:08] <smooph> Hi ... does anybody know if there is some improvment of the audio in the making ... I would like to see something like in windows where I control the sound of single apps
[00:08] <James147> I cannot really say, dont know enough about audio in 10.04
[00:09] <Matisse> smooph, i think thats already possible, but how easy... dunno
[00:11] <James147> smooph: on 10.10 here i get a seperate volumecontrol under "Plaback streams" tab in kmix for each app that uses audio
[00:11] <Matisse> cool
[00:12] <messer> hey
[00:14] <messer> www.de.wikipedia.org
[00:14] <messer> ups, sorry
[00:15] <Matisse> well
[00:15] <Matisse> "The latest release of Skype has native PulseAudio support, and does not require special configuration." that helps a lot :)
[00:15]  * kyubutsu checks it out
[00:17] <Matisse> well
[00:17] <Matisse> already got this version...
[00:18] <Imants-LV> hello
[00:19] <Imants-LV> i found wats wrong with my hdd
[00:20] <Imants-LV> how to fxthis error in terminal Disk /dev/sda doesn't contain a valid partition table
[00:22] <Imants-LV> http://paste.ubuntu.com/511998/
[00:23] <Imants-LV> hellp please
[00:25] <DarthFrog> Imants-LV: If the drive doesn't have a partition table, you'll have to create one before you can use it.
[00:25] <Imants-LV> how to do that?
[00:26] <DarthFrog> Imants-LV:  You can use partitionmanager to create partitions.
[00:26] <DarthFrog> Is it a new drive?
[00:27] <Imants-LV> im on live cd and without any os in system
[00:27] <Imants-LV> no, its used
[00:27] <DarthFrog> Imants-LV: Well, when you install Kubuntu, it'll partition the drive then.
[00:28] <Imants-LV> buti dont se this hdd in kubuntuinstaler
[00:29] <DarthFrog> Odd.
[00:29] <DarthFrog> But you can see it from the live cd?
[00:31] <Imants-LV> i see it only in terminal
[00:32] <smooph> James147: really ...
[00:32] <smooph> maybe I have to update
[00:32] <Imants-LV> how to upload screenshot?
[00:32] <DarthFrog> Imants-LV: Can you run partitionmanager and see the drive there?
[00:33] <Imants-LV> im new on linux so i dont know where to find partitionmanager
[00:34] <DarthFrog> Imants-LV: From the terminal, type "sudo partitionmanager".
[00:35] <obsoleteman> hi, how can I automount fat32 partition on kde startup ?
[00:35] <Imants-LV> i got this (sudo: partitionmanager: command not found)
[00:36] <DarthFrog> Imants-LV: From the terminal, type "sudo apt-get install partitionmanager" and try again.
[00:38] <Imants-LV> only errors ocure :D
[00:38] <Imants-LV> ImportError: /usr/lib/libgdbm.so.3: cannot read file data: Input/output error
[00:40] <DarthFrog> Imants-LV: You have odd problems.   Lovely to hear, I know.
[00:41] <DarthFrog> Imants-LV: If it were me, at this point, I'd power down, pull the plug and then check that all cards are seated properly, that all cables are seated properly, that the CPU fan is making good contact.
[00:43] <Imants-LV> ok will be back in 10 min :)
[00:45] <obsoleteman> I think systemsettings ->removable devices module do not use utf8 to mount vfat partition, is it true?
[00:48] <styles2304> Why is access to sama shares only allowed to one user when multiple users are specificed in smb.conf?
[00:50] <styles2304> All users also have usernames in linux and samba passwords assigned
[00:53] <Imans-LV> hello, im back
[01:24] <orbitalcommand> anyone have a link with tutorial for taking an external harddrive, copying the linux iso to it, and making it ready for boot to install that linux package, all on one page?
[01:25] <Imants-LV> hello gaen, im back and i fixed my hdd buti still cant see it in kubuntu instaler
[01:25] <Imants-LV> need help
[01:25] <orbitalcommand> if i use software to turn a drive into a linux boot drive, then copy the contents of the iso over unpackaged, can i install linux that way?
[01:27] <Imants-LV> http://paste.ubuntu.com/512020/
[01:27] <orbitalcommand> if i install GRML then copy the iso contents over will i be able to install the iso contents (linux)
[01:36] <Imants-LV> can somewan give me terminal comandsto get to patrition manager? pleas
[01:37] <Imants-LV> please*
[01:46] <Dragnslcr> Imants-LV- if you don't have a GUI at all, you probably want parted
[01:47] <Imants-LV> i can see hdd in file browser now. parted?
[01:49] <Imants-LV> i want to try format it trought patrition manager but dont know how to get there
[01:49] <nerdy_kid> Imants-LV you want to try gparted -- type sudo apt-get install gparted in a terminal
[01:50] <Imants-LV> instaling now
[01:51] <Imants-LV> done. what to do next?
[01:53] <Imants-LV> where can i find patrition manager?
[01:53] <nerdy_kid> Lmants-LV either somewhere in your menu or by typing gksu gparted in a terminal
[01:54] <nerdy_kid> Lmants-LV note that the partition you want to resize/format has to be unmounted -- you can not resize/format the root partition while the system is up.
[01:55] <nerdy_kid> if you just want to format a flash disk or something like that then just make sure it is not mounted -- click the eject icon in plasma device manager before started gparted
[01:57] <Imants-LV> im on live cd now, i want to instal kubuntu but dont see my hdd in instaler.
[01:58] <Imants-LV> was thinking to format hdd drive with linux partition manage and se wats hapend then
[01:59] <Imants-LV> gksu its asking a pasword
[01:59] <nerdy_kid> Lmants-LV if you click "install kubuntu" then you will get a partition manager as part of the install process
[02:00] <nerdy_kid> it is asking for a password and you are on a livecd?
[02:00] <nerdy_kid> try leaving it blank....
[02:00] <Imants-LV> yep
[02:00] <Imants-LV> not working
[02:00] <nerdy_kid> but once again if you are going to install kubuntu you dont need a partition manager -- one is built into the installer
[02:01] <nerdy_kid> it is a full featured manager too
[02:01] <gr8m8> if the live cd asks for a password it indicates a bad burn
[02:01] <Imants-LV> in instaler i dont see nothing, its blank window :)
[02:03] <nerdy_kid> yeah that shouldnt happen either.  your cd is probably bad
[02:03] <nerdy_kid> make sure you download the newest one from kubuntu.com
[02:04] <Imants-LV> i downloaded today and burned on new cd with lowest speed
[02:04] <Imants-LV> its must be good inaf
[02:05] <gr8m8> !md5
[02:06] <nerdy_kid> Lmants-LV you can also write the it to a flash drive, but it is a little more complicated.
[02:09] <Imants-LV> from flash drive is the same story. can see hdd in terminal and file browser but cant in instaler
[02:11] <Morbius> hi, I figured I'd try again today...  I'm attempting to use the control key under konsole.  There aren't any binding for control-enter or control-funtion keys.  I'd add them under "settings - edit profile - input - edit" but I don't know what the output values should be.
[02:28] <gr8m8> Morbius: does   xev   in konsole get you what you want?
[02:32] <Morbius> I switched f12 to xev to test...  xev just outputs xev; \xev automatically updates to \x0ev when I test/apply it which doesn't seem to work (and seems to just type v and make a notify beep)
[02:41] <mbehan> Hello :)
[02:51] <Morbius> hi mbehan
[02:51] <gr8m8> Morbius: xev should open a window for you to click into to get the codes for the key you hit
[02:51] <gr8m8> I said that wrog
[02:52] <gr8m8> Morbius: xev should open a window - then you hit a key - and the terminal shows the codes for the key you hit
[02:53] <Morbius> gr8m8 - forgot about that one... yes, it does open... but it gives the hex codes and not the output value/string
[02:54] <gr8m8> Morbius: look for the line - xlookupstring
[02:56] <Morbius> KeyRelease event, serial 34, synthetic NO, window 0x3800001,
[02:56] <Morbius>     root 0x1a7, subw 0x0, time 727991917, (204,-98), root:(900,477),
[02:56] <Morbius>     state 0x14, keycode 37 (keysym 0xffe3, Control_L), same_screen YES,
[02:56] <Morbius>     XLookupString gives 0 bytes:
[02:56] <FloodBotK2> Morbius: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[02:57] <gr8m8> Morbius: what key did you hit?
[02:58] <Morbius> I've gotten that for a number of them L_Control, and arrows and such
[02:59] <Morbius> letters give  XLookupString gives 1 bytes: (62) "b"
[02:59] <Morbius> (for example)
[02:59] <gr8m8> the line that starts state says you hit the left control key
[03:00] <gr8m8> kysym hex human readable is how that lists 'em
[03:00] <Morbius> is there a way to translate?
[03:01] <gr8m8> to what?
[03:04] <Morbius> konsole output?
[03:04] <Morbius> how do I take the hex and get konsole to take it as a command?
[03:05] <gr8m8> I've never tried that - echo -e hex maybe - you'd have to google for that info if noone here knows
[03:08] <Morbius> echo -e just echo's "-e" for me
[03:09] <Morbius> ok, fixed that part, but still just echos the hex as hex
[03:11] <Morbius> I haven't been having a lot of luck with google... but I'll probably try again tmw, thanks
[03:12] <gr8m8> here's how to do it in c - http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2984307/c-key-pressed-in-linux-console
[03:13] <gr8m8> I think that's what you want Morbius ...
[03:50] <jjman6_> I have partition that claims its full (i did a du -h ) but  there should be nearly 15Gb free.  Trash is empty.  i can't figure out why its full reporting its full but its not.   It is also being shared via NFS & i was deleting/copying files remotely i think it has to do with this...
[04:06] <msl> jjman6, Sometimes there is space that is reserved for superuser.  Do you remember the options used to format the partition?
[04:07] <msl> Or maybe you have space, but are out of inodes...
[04:22] <msl> tune2fs will have more info
[04:23] <gr8m8> it's prob the nfs daemon taking its' time to update - happens here too
[05:13] <oskool> how do i get the sound to work in10.1
[05:14] <gr8m8> !sound
[05:21] <kyubutsu> kubuntu 10.10 :: what does the plus sign do on folder view
[05:32] <jah> y amm quetal los problemas familiares ja mm...
[05:41] <Guest16455> ok
[05:41] <Guest16455> i am a new user
[05:42] <jjman6_> msl: its just a default ext4 (non system) partition
[05:42] <Guest16455> k
[05:43] <Guest16455> gotta go
[05:43] <Guest16455> bye y'all u dont seem to be talkin
[05:46] <msl> jjman6, What does   tune2fs -l /dev/sdb2 | grep "Reserved block"   show?
[05:46] <msl> Of course, substitute your own partition
[05:47] <msl> If it is greater than 0, you have reserved blocks for (probably) root
[05:48] <jjman6_> couldn't find valid filesystem superblock
[05:49] <msl> Hmmm, you sure you are using the right partition?
[05:49] <jjman6_> i used the map partition name
[05:49] <jjman6_> not the dev path
[05:49] <msl> use the /dev path
[05:50] <jjman6_> ah i needed to sudo it.
[05:50] <jjman6_> count: 1293934   UID: 0   GID:  0
[05:52] <msl> So you have 1293934 blocks reserved for root (UID 0)
[05:52] <msl> Does the df output look different as root?
[05:53] <msl> Doesn't look different on my machine.
[05:53] <msl> Maybe it won't
[05:53] <jjman6_> no.  same
[05:54] <jjman6_> thing is it says size: 98gb  Used 93Gb,  Avail: 4k  so even it thinks there ~5gb's free
[05:54] <jjman6_> du tells me differently tho.  it says there should be nearly 15Gb free
[05:55] <jjman6_> i don't know why root would be reserving any this is just an extra data partiition  /media
[05:58] <jjman6_> i even tried remounting it and it won't let me.  says its busy    (i unmounted the nfs link to it from other computer)
[06:13] <msl> jjman6, It is just a default when formatting partitions.  I am not sure the design decision behind it.
[06:15] <jjman6_> well either way it doesn't account for the 15gb's of missing space
[06:46] <gr8m8> what does   du -hs --apparent-size /path/to/dir   return for it
[07:07] <Shaan7> Anyone tried building latest KDE trunk on Kubuntu maverick? For me, if I start any program (e.g. dolphin) from trunk, next time I login, the stable version breaks. kded (stable) fails to start (.xsession-errors http://pastebin.ca/1960681 ). No use even if I delete+recreate my home dir and /tmp, have to reinstall. Anyone else having the problem?
[07:34] <BttocScottB> Hello...
[07:35] <BttocScottB> Question: If I add kubuntu to my current default Gnome setup, will it work fine still?
[07:35] <BttocScottB> I guess I should say, if I add the KDE desktop to Gnome...
[07:35] <bazhang> BttocScottB, yes
[07:35] <bazhang> install kubuntu-desktop package
[07:36] <BttocScottB> What about sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[07:37] <BttocScottB> If I then boot into KDE, would that REALLY be the same as installing Kubuntu from scratch?
[07:38] <BttocScottB> (I mean, except I'll see the apps I have via Gnome).
[07:38] <gr8m8> yep
[07:38] <bazhang> well some menus will be crowded with gnome stuff, but you can adjust that
[07:38] <BttocScottB> Ok. I think I'll try it.
[07:38] <bazhang> well worth it
[07:39] <BttocScottB> Well, let me ask a few more things I guess...
[07:39] <bazhang> any of the -desktop packages, as a matter of fact
[07:39] <bazhang> edubuntu lubuntu xubuntu ubuntustudio
[07:39] <BttocScottB> Since I updated to 10.10, now I see the terminal messages all over the screen briefly when shutting down.
[07:39] <BttocScottB> Does that happen to anyone else?
[07:40] <BttocScottB> They're like, all big, and messy everywhere. Not in a nice list like before.
[07:40] <BttocScottB> This is with Gnome, of course.
[07:41] <BttocScottB> Anyone...?
[07:45] <BttocScottB> bazhang, what do you mean you can adjust the menus? Whatever you do on the menus in KDE will also affect Gnome, won't it?
[08:27] <Hedron> Hi all, I have a problem with the latest version of Kubuntu in combination with cisco VPN client
[08:27] <Hedron> can anybody help me with this?
[08:28] <Hedron> or point me to somewhere I can get help?
[08:29] <Hedron> I have installed Cisco VPN client and everyting seems OK, I manage to connect to the remote site
[08:30] <Hedron> however when I try to tunnel X11 over the VPN connection, the whole system freezes with no hope of recovery other than pressing the power button
[08:30] <Hedron> I cannot use vpnc due to it's limitation about using IPSec TCP
[08:31] <Hedron> the vpn is not under my control and I cannot change it's settings
[08:31] <Hedron> only the settings of the client
[09:50] <el_> hi
[09:50] <el_> since I updates on 10.10. my spellchecker doesn't work
[09:51] <gr8m8> it prob missed the dictionary
[09:51] <el_> but which one
[09:51] <gr8m8> depends on the app and your language I guess
[09:52] <el_> I installed ispell aspell aspell-de hunspell-de-de kde-..-de
[09:52] <el_> an so on
[09:52] <el_> language-pack-kde-de
[09:52] <gr8m8> !find spell
[09:56] <el_> juhu, many thanks
[09:56] <el_> apt-get install spell # and it works
[10:39] <rww> G'day. I have konqueror and kpart-webkit installed on Kubuntu 10.10. How do I make Konqueror default to using the Webkit kpart for web browsing instead of the KHTML kpart? I know how to set it (View -> View Mode), but not how to make it default.
[10:40] <Peace-> rww: one moment
[10:40] <Peace-> rww: http://nowardev.wordpress.com/2009/12/31/set-webkit-like-default-engine-on-konqueror/
[10:42] <rww> Peace-: that works. Thank you :)

[11:16] <koni_> hi, when upgrading from 9.10 to 10.04 the upgrade-manager simply changed the release names from karmic to lucid in sources.list
[11:17] <koni_> why is this changed from 10.04 to 10.10? I run an internal mirror which I would like to use
[11:24] <koni_> anyone?
[11:28] <elimental> Noob user new to Kubuntu, been using Ubuntu for some time. I have a small problem dont know if its a bug
[11:29] <elimental> I have a laptop with 4.1 sound and when I plug in headphones only the front 2 mutes
[11:29] <krake> koni_: lucid is 10.04, not 10.10, so the change seems to beappropriate
[11:30] <elimental> Question is there a place in kde where I change the setting?
[11:30] <koni_> krake: yes, I mean from lucid (10.04) to 10.10 (maverick)
[11:31] <koni_> krake: Normally you would ge this message: Do you want to rewrite your 'sources.list' file anyway? If you choose 'Yes' here it will update all ...
[11:31] <krake> koni_: ah, no idea
[11:31] <koni_> krake: thanks anyway
[11:49] <freinhard> hi!
[11:50] <freinhard> got 10.10 here and kopete running. the tray icon disappeared after updating so i checked the config. i then activated the trayicon in "behaviour" again but it doesn't show up. is that related to that messageindicator thingie?
[11:55] <jussi> freinhard: yes it is
[11:55] <jussi> youll find kopete in the message indicator - the little envelope
[11:59] <greenmang0> yesterday i upgraded to 10.10 from 10.04 since them my "skim" stopped working...it just refuses to start
[11:59] <greenmang0> what can be the problem?
[11:59] <greenmang0> when i try to start it throught command line it says "kbuildsycoca running...
[11:59] <greenmang0> KCrash: Application 'skim' crashing...
[11:59] <greenmang0> Could not find 'drkonqi' executable.
[11:59] <greenmang0> KCrash cannot reach kdeinit, launching directly.
[11:59] <greenmang0> "
[11:59] <FloodBotK2> greenmang0: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[12:00] <freinhard> jussi: yeah, funny thing: without knowing about it you're stuck since the message indicator is disabled in case you do a upgrade and not a fresh install/new profile
[12:00] <jussi> freinhard: yeah, good thing we are here to help eh ;)
[12:02] <freinhard> so what happens if i close kopete now? like using the X on kopetes main window. last time kopete shut down, which is not what i wanted and how it behaved before.
[12:02] <elimental> lol
[12:05] <toonacid> Does anyone by any chance know what packages are related to the login themes? I need to reinstall them because I accidentally deleted /usr/share/kde4/apps/kdm/themes/
[12:07] <greenmang0> toonacid: dpkg -S /usr/share/kde4/apps/kdm/themes/
[12:07] <greenmang0> this gives me "kdm"
[12:07] <greenmang0> toonacid: you might try reinstalling kdm
[12:08] <toonacid> greenmang0: I'll see if that works, thanks. I didn't know about that command, guess even people that know a bit are still always learning. :)
[12:09] <greenmang0> toonacid: learning is a continuous process :)
[12:09] <toonacid> greenmang0: Did the trick, thanks.
[12:14] <toonacid> greenmang0: Argg, I was pretty sure I had more themes than this. There must be some extra theme package I had installed, hmm..
[12:15] <greenmang0> toonacid: kde-kdm-themes ? kdmtheme ?
[12:17] <toonacid> greenmang0: Hmm, those packages aren't coming up in the search. Apt-get says they're referred to by another package, but missing , obsolete, or available elsewhere.
[12:19] <greenmang0> toonacid: yeah.. i am using maverick repos.. i don't find that package either
[12:20] <toonacid> Tracked it down.
[12:20] <toonacid> kdebase-workspace-wallpapers
[12:20] <toonacid> Thanks for the help. :)
[12:24] <greenmang0> toonacid: thanks for the package name... let me try that ;)
[12:24] <anirudh24seven> upgraded to maverick today. loving it !!
[12:26] <greenmang0> can anyboday help me with skim
[12:26] <greenmang0> ??
[12:26] <greenmang0> it just refuses to start
[12:26] <greenmang0> since i upgraded to maverick
[12:27] <smooph> Hi I am thinking about trying out 10.10 ... but I hear there are some problems is that correct ?
[12:28] <greenmang0> smooph: what problems?
[12:28] <smooph> nvidia graphics
[12:29] <elimental> Well I am about to install Nvidia FX drivers
[12:29] <elimental> so if I dont come back it will be confirmed
[12:29] <smooph> :)
[12:29] <ayush1> how do I integrate the mail notification in the system tray with kmail?
[12:30] <smooph> yesterday somebody said that with 10.10 u can finally change the volume per program and not system wide is that correct
[12:30] <toonacid> Used to use NVidia, now I'm on awful onboard, but hey, if there are NVidia problems, I just got saved.
[12:31] <smooph> people I am asking if there are problems
[12:31] <elimental> Nvidia 280 here
[12:31] <smooph> nobody confirmed it yet
[12:31] <elimental> default install still running smooth I think the problem is with dual monitors
[12:32] <smooph> mhh I have dual monitors
[12:32] <elimental> k wish me luck .....
 how do I integrate the mail notification in the system tray with kmail? <-- What mail notification? The "envelope" messaging menu?
[12:33] <smooph> ayush1: its a widget called message indicator
[12:33] <ayush1> lucidfox and smooph : yes. it doesn't go green when I get a new mail in kmail
[12:34] <lucidfox> Does KMail appear there at all?
[12:35] <elimental> Question awnsered
[12:35] <elimental> :)
[12:37] <smooph> how did you update ... manager or repository edit
[12:37] <lucidfox> ayush1, in KMail, verify that Settings -> Accounts -> New Mail Notification -> Use message indicator is checked

[12:38] <toonacid> The message indicator notifies me everytime someone is typign a mail with Kopete. Notifies me about 3 or 4 times, sorta annoying. :/
[12:38] <toonacid> typing a message with Kopete.*
[12:39] <smooph> 10.10 is offically out ? isnt it ? why does "do-release-upgrade" give me no new release found?
[12:40] <toonacid> smooph: No idea. But if you apt-get dist-upgrade it'll probably find what you want.
[12:40] <lucidfox> smooph> might be your settings, since they only display LTS releases by default - follow the official upgrade instructions on kubuntu.org
[12:41] <lucidfox> no, dist-upgrade doesn't update sources.list
[12:41] <toonacid> lucidfox: Ah.
[12:41] <smooph> I know
[12:41] <smooph> thats why I did ... do-release-upgrade
[12:41] <elimental> still have in problem to solve... dam headphone sencing not working
[12:41] <smooph> I will check kubuntu.org
[12:43] <lucidfox> smooph> See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MaverickUpgrades/Kubuntu
[12:43] <lucidfox> for upgrade instructions
[12:43] <ayush1> lucidfox: there is no "account" in settings. there is  a "configure notification" in which I have already checked the "notify when new mail arrives" box.
[12:44] <lucidfox> ayush1> Accounts is an icon on the left sidebar - maybe it's called differently in the English version, the icon is a folder
[12:44] <lucidfox> in Settings
[12:46] <ayush1> lucidfox: in settings, there is no icon folder
[12:46] <lucidfox> ayush1> Could you post a screenshot of the settings window?
[12:47] <ayush1> lucidfox: you mean the settings menu?
[12:47] <lucidfox> in my KMail, it's the second icon from the top on the left
[12:47] <lucidfox> the settings *dialog*, in KMail
[12:47] <lucidfox> Settings -> Configure KMail
[12:47] <lucidfox> sorry about the ambiguity
[12:47] <lucidfox> Settings -> Configure KMail -> Accounts -> New Mail Notification -> Use message indicator is checked
[12:50] <ayush1> lucidfox: thanks a lot. it works now.
[12:54] <ayush1> do I have to check mail manually in kmail or is there a way I can set it to check it automatically every 5 mins?
[12:54] <lucidfox> ayush1> There's a setting for that
[12:55] <lucidfox> ayush1> In Accounts, select your account and click Modify, then check "Enable interval mail checking"
[12:56] <ayush1> alright thanks a lot lucidfox
[13:22] <smooph1> I am nervous ... upgrade is almost done
[13:37] <weld3> are there any known memory leaks related to Xorg or nvidia drivers in 10.10? when i run KDE the memory usage keeps growing and uses all 3GB RAM, right now the output of top looks something like this:http://pastebin.com/g1B26S8G (sorted by memory usage)
[13:42] <elimental> Lol my kde sound problem fixed by installing gnome mixer....

[13:54] <shining_> 这是什么阿？
[13:55] <v3nd3tta``> shining_ can you talk in english please? i don't think anyone can understand your language here :/
[13:56] <shining_> sorry
[13:56] <v3nd3tta``> no problem :)
[13:58] <shining_> Kubuntu is really quite easily used,nice.....
[14:13] <elb0w> I am trying to get my ubuntu install to work however the screen turns off once it goes past boot. After research we found that we made need to make the setting "usedisplaydevice 'DFP'" may enable it as I use DVI. However I do not have a Xorg.conf, how can I make this work?
[14:26] <BluesKaj> Howdy
[14:48] <jaybomb> #kubuntu 10.10 no longer has krfb (desktop sharing) installed by default? Or has it been replaced by something else?
[14:52] <BluesKaj> jaybomb, , it's still listed in my kmenu /application/internet
[14:53] <jaybomb> Interesting. I had to install it manually.
[14:53] <jaybomb> And it seems unstable.
[14:54] <pr0xy> I'm having issues installing 10.10 via CD. It installs, but it won't boot up from the drive.
[14:55] <pr0xy> hello/
[14:56] <pr0xy> anyone here?
[14:56] <jaybomb> When I run krfb, there is also no icon in the system tray.  It's just blank space. Anyone seeing this issue?
[14:56] <pr0xy> I'm having issues installing 10.10 via CD. It installs, but it won't boot up from the drive.
[14:57] <jaybomb> Pr0xy what happens when it tries to boot?
[14:57] <pr0xy> hangs at bios.
[14:57] <pr0xy> man, this channel is quiet.
[14:59] <jaybomb> Is it a dual boot system or just kubuntu?
[14:59] <JeroenDeDauw> Just installed 10.10 - what's the normal approach to getting my second monitor to show an extended desktop?
[14:59] <JeroenDeDauw> I managed to do this on my previous install, but it took me a while, and apparently it could be done easier with the newer versions...
[15:00] <pr0xy> no idea.
[15:00] <alvin> jaybomb: krfb is an optional package. Maybe it wasn't in earlier releases. You can check that with $ aptitude show krfb (aptitude is also optional now, in order to make room on the CD)
[15:00] <ToxinPowe> JeroenDeDauw: if you use NVIDIA propietary, nvidia-settings
[15:01] <JeroenDeDauw> ToxinPowe: Right, thanks :)
[15:01] <alvin> jaybomb: xrandr
[15:02] <alvin> Hmm, no. That message was for JeroenDeDauw. You can choose between twinview and xrandr
[15:02] <JeroenDeDauw> ToxinPowe: Do I need TwinView or "Seperate X screen" for extended desktop?
[15:02] <BluesKaj> pr0xy, how old is your pc ?
[15:02] <ToxinPowe> twinview
[15:03] <pr0xy> less than 5 years.
[15:03] <BluesKaj> but more than 4 ?
[15:03] <pr0xy> I don't remember. never had problems with 10.04
[15:05] <pr0xy> Why are you asking?
[15:05] <BluesKaj> pr0xy, my desktop is 5 yrs old and on 10.04 I used the alternate-install , which is text based . like the older debians , but recognizes older hardware better than the live cd
[15:05] <pr0xy> what hardware stuff? gpu?
[15:06] <BluesKaj> I had the the same symptoms as you ...yes the graphics card is an ati x200m
[15:07] <pr0xy> my gpu is a gt 240. got it in august
[15:08] <BluesKaj> then it might be too new
[15:08] <ToxinPowe> JeroenDeDauw: it works?
[15:08] <pr0xy> works in 10.04
[15:08] <BluesKaj> nvidia has some issues with 10.10 , pr0xy
[15:08] <pr0xy> and XP.
[15:08] <pr0xy> rly?
[15:09] <pr0xy> what do i do, then? my old card was a GeForce 4 MX4000
[15:09] <Renovatio> hi, i recently brought a DVI monitor (my video card supports it) and linked monitor-card with a dvi-d (SL) cable but now i cannot set resolution upper to 1280x1024_60 neither throught kubuntu settings nor through nvigia-settings...can someone help me?
[15:11] <pr0xy> so what can I do to use 10.10 from CD?
[15:11] <BluesKaj> pr0xy, do a search on google-linux for the proper driver , but I would try the alternate-install . It still has a broader range of options
[15:12] <pr0xy> where do I get it? does it work for nvidia cards?
[15:13] <BluesKaj> !alternate
[15:14] <cg_> hello, i installed kubuntu10.10, and i got a widget called microblogger on the desktop, any introduction on it ?
[15:16] <pr0xy> My BIOS says my processor is EM64T. Can I use the 64 bit install?
[15:16] <Pici> pr0xy: Yes.
[15:17] <pr0xy> would you recommend using 64 bit?
[15:17] <jjman6> always
[15:18] <abadr_> cg_, I don't use that widget but it's a client for twitter and identi,ca. Do you use any of those services?
[15:19] <pr0xy> always use 64 bit?
[15:20] <jjman6> i always do.  there's no reason to use 32bit.
[15:20] <jjman6> 64bit has been around for over 10yrs
[15:20] <SH0x> is there any advanted of installing nvidia driver from nvidia website comparing to default ones that came with kubuntu?
[15:20] <cg_> abadr_, not so far. i get a little trouble to visit twitter, cause im behind the gfw, the damm thing. thank you
[15:20] <BluesKaj> !default
[15:21] <abadr_> np
[15:21] <jaybomb> Is there an alternative desktop sharing client to krfb? Krfb crashe's on start very often.
[15:21] <alvin> pr0xy: I think a lot of people still have that video card around. It was a very popular model. I use the Matrox G450 (was also very popular), but that one can't even boot the livecd.
[15:21] <JeroenDeDauw> ToxinPowe: I had to manually copy the stuff to the file, as the control panel apparently fails at that, but apart from that it went smoothly :)
[15:22] <pr0xy> which card? the GT240?
[15:22] <ToxinPowe> JeroenDeDauw: maybe you have to can write the file (sudo) previously, but ok ;)
[15:23] <pr0xy> alvin, which card of mine are you referring to? the GT240 or the MX4000?
[15:23] <alvin> The MX :-)
[15:23] <BluesKaj> SH0x, nvidia has pretty good support in linux , what's your issue ?
[15:24] <JeroenDeDauw> ToxinPowe: I did kdesu the control panel, and also chmod'ded the file to 777, neither of which made the thing un-fail.
[15:24] <ToxinPowe> JeroenDeDauw: okey
[15:24] <pr0xy> oh, I don't like it. It can't run portal or any of my games under XP. :(
[15:25] <SH0x> BluesKaj: just wandering which driver will work better for hd video on mplayer (ex. with vdpau)
[15:25] <BluesKaj> SH0x, which nvidia card?
[15:25] <SH0x> 8600 GT
[15:27] <BluesKaj> the nvidia-current driver works fine with 8 series , SH0x ..I'm using with 7600gt with HD on our plasma tv without problems
[15:28] <SH0x> BluesKaj: current-driver - you mean deafult which came with kubuntu?
[15:28] <BluesKaj> yes
[15:29] <SH0x> ok thanks
[15:30] <BluesKaj> mplayer isn't my fav player anymore , I've been using the dragon player it's simpler to use for my family , SH0x
[15:32] <JeroenDeDauw> Meh! I named my machine "O.o" during Kubuntu install, but it's showing up as just "O" :(
[15:33] <SH0x> BluesKaj: ok but im quite doubt that dragon will handle 1080p
[15:34] <SH0x> i gues ill need do some benchamrks
[15:35] <bulldog98> Hi guys
[15:36] <bulldog98> I have an problem with my keyboard it’s not working anymore (tryed an otherone and the same result) with an other kubuntu computer it works
[15:38] <BluesKaj> SH0x, dragonplayer can run 1080p without problems
[15:39] <SH0x> bulldog98: i had just an issue with logging in, couldnt input name/pass, but i past it by clicking OK with mouse, then got WRONG PASS and then got the chance to type name pass
[15:39] <smooph> Upgrade successful
[15:39] <smooph> nice ;)
[15:40] <SH0x> BluesKaj: how many ram u have on machine?
[15:40] <bulldog98> SH0x: I’ve got autologin enabled, so it won’t work
[15:43] <cg_> the new kde is awesome , i love it !
[15:44] <smooph> I love the audio-mixer ... sound per app is a must and we finally have it :)
[15:50] <BluesKaj> SH0x, 3G RAM
[15:54] <elimental> Is there a facebook chat add-on for Kopete?
[15:55] <pr0xy> how do I tell which Hard drive is which in the install?
[15:56] <elimental> Its should tell you before and after what partitions in on the drive
[15:56] <BluesKaj> pr0xy, in the terminal sudo fdisk -l
[15:57] <pr0xy> It doesn't tell me which one has XP on it!
[15:57] <BluesKaj> ntfs is xp
[15:57] <pr0xy> There are 2 ntfs drives?
[15:58] <elimental> pr0xy: I take it you have live disk?
[15:59] <BluesKaj> pr0xy, pastebin the output from fdisk -l pls
[15:59] <BluesKaj> !pastebin
[15:59] <pr0xy> I'm trying the alternalte install right now!
[16:01] <BluesKaj> pr0 use the the largest partition marked ext4, one will be a swap
[16:01] <elb0w> Just installed Kubuntu and im getting "Geom Error" now
[16:01] <elimental> I take it he has 2 x ntfs drives one with Windoze and one that is empty and he want to install Kubuntu on?
[16:02] <elimental> best selution boot windows and delete the partition that you want
[16:02] <elimental> and then come to kubuntu install and select the drive with no partition
[16:04] <pr0xy> one's got XP, One's a backup, and there's a third that I want to install to. It doesn't show up, though.
[16:06] <pr0xy> so, how do I install from the alternate disk or live cd? the alternate won't even display the hard drive I want Kubuntu on.
[16:08] <Scunizi> pr0xy: should.. are you in the live environment and looking for the drive you want to install on?
[16:08] <pr0xy> not anymore.
[16:08] <Scunizi> pr0xy: ok.. were you?
[16:09] <pr0xy> no, i was in the alternate install disk.
[16:09] <kyubutsu> rekonq | clear browsing history fail
[16:09] <pr0xy> i'll switch to live?
[16:09] <Scunizi> pr0xy: and during the partitioning section did it show sda / sdb etc?
[16:09] <pr0xy> ya
[16:10] <Scunizi> pr0xy: no need to switch to live
[16:10] <Scunizi> pr0xy: ok.. sda is one drive.. sdb is another drive sdc would be a third.. sda1 is the first partition on drive 1 etc.
[16:10] <pr0xy> should I go back to alternate disk install? i'm in 10.04 on a usb now.
[16:11] <Scunizi> pr0xy: the usb is a live cd environment.. you can stay there if you want
[16:11] <pr0xy> no it's a full install on an external drive.
[16:12] <Scunizi> pr0xy: ah.. well. did I answer your question about the drives?
[16:12] <BluesKaj> pr0xy, you should have mentioned that before .. :(
[16:12] <kyubutsu> >:(
[16:13]  * BluesKaj takes a break
[16:13] <pr0xy> not really, I need to find which internal drive is called backup hd. and I don't see backup hd. it's maxtor with a bunch of digits or wd and a bunch of random digits.
[16:14] <kyubutsu> i like rekonq but just like konq it doenst do everything .. so, back to chromium until the kde team learns more tips from google  :(
[16:15] <pr0xy> so, what do I need to do to get the drive's name?
[16:16] <Scunizi> pr0xy: is the drive currently formatted and if so with what filesystem?
[16:16] <kyubutsu> just browse drive content until find the info you need then look at name
[16:17] <pr0xy> how do I find out? i don't see a disk utility of any sort
[16:17] <kyubutsu> how do you know the drive isnt mounted
[16:17] <jmichaelx> can anyone tell me how to change which browser is used when a link is clicked in thunderbird? i have FF set in default applications in system settings... also, it used FF just fine before upgrading to maverick
[16:18] <vivia> hi... if i leave the dist-upgrade window running and lock the screen to go home, will i find it safe when i'm back or will i be locked out of my session?
[16:18] <kyubutsu> jmichaelx: it is sensical to assume whatever is your default browser is what will be opening web links
[16:18] <pr0xy> I don't know if it is mounted or not. I think it is. i can browse drive contents in dolphin.
[16:19] <jmichaelx> kyubutsu: yes, it is sensical, but it is not working that way
[16:19] <pr0xy> how do I tell if it's mounted?
[16:19] <jmichaelx> kyubutsu: i failed to mention that it is using konqueror.... i want it to use FF, sorry about that
[16:21] <pr0xy> how do I tell if it's mounted?
[16:21] <kyubutsu> jmichaelx: am currently on 10.10 but there should be a settings option inside thunderbid for that..
[16:22] <jmichaelx> kyubutsu: if there is, i have not been able to locate it. as i said, i am also currently in maverick
[16:23] <kyubutsu> kontact uses kmail . not thunderbird
[16:23] <BluesKaj> pr0xy, the best thing for you to do is download and burn gparted live cd and use it to find and format the partitions you need to install to .
[16:23] <BluesKaj> !gparted
[16:24] <pr0xy> well, I can install from the CD it doesn't work, though.
[16:24] <jmichaelx> kyubutsu: yes, but i do not use kontact
[16:24] <pr0xy> when I boot it up from the hard drive.
[16:24] <kyubutsu> jmichaelx: i guess my point is i cannot help with thunderbird 'cause i dont have it
[16:24] <jmichaelx> BluesKaj: did you order that video card?
[16:25] <BluesKaj> pr0xy, it seems to me that you don't know how to read a partition table , i suggest you go on google/wiki and read about partition tables.
[16:26] <jmichaelx> BluesKaj: i just happened to see a sale on geforce 210 cards, will message you in offtopic, if you are there
[16:26] <pr0xy> I don't know how to read it without a disk utility, and the live CD doesn't install.
[16:27] <pr0xy> I'm using a gt240 card.
[16:27] <BluesKaj> jmichaelx, not yet , I'm still debating :)
[16:27] <kyubutsu> !kpart
[16:27] <kyubutsu> heh
[16:34] <pr0xy> ok. I read up on partition tables, but that isn't helping.
[16:35] <pr0xy> dang it.
[16:39] <pr0xy> hello?
[16:41] <Scunizi> !manual | pr0xy Perhaps this will help
[16:44] <pr0xy> not helpful :(
[16:46] <kyubutsu> ask in #linux .. lots of keyboard cowboys there
[16:47] <kyubutsu> err, ##linux
[16:51] <pr0xy> me?
[17:02] <kyubutsu> rekonq fails to playback some embedded video even after installing kubuntu-restricted -extras!
[17:03] <kyubutsu> wish it didnt and i wouldnt have to go back to chromium .. also, importing bookmarks from chromium was a fail

[17:17] <Cato37> hello room.
[17:17] <Cato37> oops. sorry. old habits die hard.
[17:19] <Cato37> i have upgraded to 10.10. is there a page that shows how to change rekonq so that it seperates the url from the search fields?
[17:19] <Galvatron_2> Sorry in advace, but main Ubuntu channel is lie a midst of a tornado. My issue is not related to any particular desktop enviroment, or at least so I guess. My Ubuntu 9.10 freezes during desktop loading almost every single time I turn on the machine and sometimes also after reboot/reset). The cause seem to be my USB Modems (tested both Sagem F@st 8000 and Thomson SpeedTouch 330): http://pastebin.com/hQ1Mdd69 - unfortunately theres almost 
[17:19] <Galvatron_2> Google about this.

[17:38] <whysoserious> How d'ya
[17:39] <whysoserious> Did your IP appear too into your login?
[17:44] <ironsight> is there a way to make rekonq show the install plugins screen again, the first time it did, I had apt installing some stuff?
[18:11] <jschall> My volume control in meerkat is really laggy
[18:11] <jschall> I'll change the volume and it'll take effect 5-10 seconds later
[18:11] <jschall> and it makes it really annoying, i've turned it up too far and had to yank the speaker cable a few times now
[18:12] <jschall> anyone else with this problem?
[18:12] <Machtin> jschall: i recall havin that..
[18:12] <jschall> Machtin: i recall having it a long time ago too
[18:12] <jschall> Machtin: but now it's back
[18:13] <jschall> it's probably pulseaudio's fault
[18:13] <Machtin> i agree on blaming pulseaudio ;) no clue whether removing works.
[18:13] <Machtin> however, i don't have it anymore.. so it was fixed by some update.
[18:13] <Machtin> or something i did, which i didn't know i did.. which i doubt
[18:14] <jschall> Machtin: this was in meerkat?
[18:14] <Machtin> yup, but alpha
[18:14] <jschall> Machtin: mmm.
[18:14] <Machtin> however.. anyone got a hint on how to change my brightness on my notebook? (lenovo z360)
[18:14] <jschall> what's the ppa for the kde 4.5.2?
[18:15] <Machtin> it's not quite perfect to have it run on full brightness when i need some battery charge left for 2 hours of university :)
[18:15] <Machtin> uhm, no clue to be honest
[18:16] <Machtin> have you tried removing pulseaudio jschall?

[18:54] <tom___> Hello
[18:56] <tom___> I used lucid and the knetworkmanager in system tray. By installation of Maverick it disappeared. Network is working, even wireless. But I have no icon for that anymore. I read that a plasma-widget replaced the knetworkmanager. But I cannot see it and also cannot add this widget (even it seems to be installed "lates version ..."). Has anyone of you an idea on that?
[18:59] <bloodsmith> Anyone know of a good .cbr reader? GTK didnt work with the files I had.
[19:06] <bowser> hi all, is it possible to glabally change, whether Kubuntu will show me MiB or MB?
[19:11] <glauce> hi folks. I've just installed kubuntu 10.10. I am now trying to install kdegames from kubuntu dvd. I could do it when in live-cd, but I can't do it through kpackagekit. can you gimme a clue?
[19:12] <glauce> I get a (!) fail on network...
[19:17] <glauce> I thought it was simple as starting kpackakit and inserting the dvd, but it seems I was wrong...
[19:17] <glauce> kpackagekit*
[19:19] <bowser> glauce, is your networking enabled? check the network widget/plasmoid in the panel
[19:20] <glauce> bowser: I think so.
[19:20] <glauce> there's a icon saying for updates...
[19:21] <bowser> glauce: click on the network icon, you can disable wifi and networking in general
[19:22] <glauce> bowser: I really can't see network icon... but I'm here... weird...
[19:23] <glauce> glauce: okay, found it. A little cell phone... what may I do?
[19:23] <glauce> glauce: disable it?
[19:23] <glauce> glauce: but kpackagekit doesn't get software right from the dvd?
[19:25] <glauce> the error: E: Error cdrom://Kubuntu 10.10 _Maverick Meerkat_ - Release i386 (20101008)/ maverick/main bomber i386 4:4.5.1-0ubuntu2
[19:25] <glauce> File not found
[19:25] <glauce> And I could install it when in live-dvd... weird, ins't it?
[19:26] <seank_> Hi, where can I set a socks proxy in Kubuntu 10.10?  Kopete won't work.  There is no socks proxy field in network proxy settings.
[19:26] <seank_> Ubuntu, however, has a socks proxy field for its network proxy settings
[19:37] <m_tadeu> hi...what do I have to do in order to have file tags for nepomuk?
[19:38] <dolio> You need to turn nepomuk on. It's "Desktop Search" under the system settings.
[19:39] <m_tadeu> It's on...but the input for tagging doesn't show up in the pannel
[19:39] <dolio> In dolphin, you mean?
[19:40] <m_tadeu> yup
[19:40] <dolio> I'm afraid I don't know, then.
[19:40] <m_tadeu> thanks :) anyone else have any advice?
[19:43] <seank_> Anyone know how to set a socks proxy in kubuntu?
[19:50] <timd_> hey people I never used this.  How is everybody?
[19:50] <James147> !hi | timd_
[19:50] <James147> :S
[19:51] <timd_> I'm just wasting a little time at the gig.
[19:55] <glauce> hi folks. After installing, how can I install software fro kubuntu dvd? is there a tutorial about it? I simply can't do it using kpackagekit...
[19:58] <bowser> glauce: sorry, I've never installed anything from the dvd
[19:59] <glauce> bowser: what I found too weird is that I can install software easily from it when in dvd-live mode... can't do the same when the system is installed... nonsense...
[20:00] <James147> glauce: you should be able to enable the repo on the dvd from in kpackagekit
[20:01] <glauce> James147: And how am I supposed to do that? I've already tried it...
[20:03] <James147> glauce: what version of kubuntu are you suiong?
[20:03] <James147> using ^^
[20:03] <glauce> James147: 10.10
[20:03] <Machtin> i want to adjust my screen brightness on kubuntu.. applet's there but doesn't have any effect. it's on my notebook (leonovo z360)
[20:03] <glauce> James147: I've just installed it.
[20:03] <Machtin> any suggestions?
[20:05] <James147> kpackagekit > settings (tab on the left) > edit origins > other software > check the entry for the cd/dvd
[20:06] <ubuntum> Hello, need some help with AD on Linux. I have AD authentication working, but login is very slow, cached login isn't working, and I can't login to local accounts when disconnected from the network. Thanks!
[20:07] <slooksterpsv> this is the freenode.net irc right?
[20:08] <rww> slooksterpsv: yes
[20:09] <slooksterpsv> ok KDE is awesome, it was just the upgrade that fubar'ed my system, this is working really well, I'm so surprised
[20:11] <tom___> has anyone an idea because of a disappered knetwork icon in the system tray after update to Maverick?
[20:11] <glauce> James147: I've installing rekonq extras, kpackagekit locked. Next, I'll try it. thanks.
[20:12] <tom___> network is working, but there is no icon and i have no control over it
[20:13] <James147> tom___: the widget should have been installed, which uninstalls knetworkmanager, add it back by right clicking the panel/desktop > add widgets > search for "Network Managment" and drag it back (or right click the systray > sstray settings and add it through that)
[20:14] <max> hi all
[20:14] <max> :)
[20:14] <Guest30845> hi
[20:16] <tom___> James147: Thank you very much!!
[20:16] <tom___> it worked.
[20:16] <trichard> hey, after upgrading my KDE packages to 4.5.2 on 10.10 plasma doesn't seem to start anymore
[20:16] <tom___> I thought that I had already tried that
[20:16] <tom___> but have not found the right one
[20:16] <Guest30845> hi
[20:17] <tom___> Anyway: Thanks!!
[20:17] <Guest30845> whats problem trichard
[20:17] <James147> trichard: can you start it in a terminal? (run "plasma-desktop")
[20:17] <Guest30845> ?
[20:17] <slooksterpsv> I may be a KDE Fan lol, Gnome is amazing I love Gnome, but KDE 4.5 they've really done well on, it's all so fluid, everything just works so well! I'm going to hang in here in case I run into issues.
[20:17] <trichard> James147: no
[20:18] <trichard> Error message was:  "org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown" : " "The name org.kde.plasma-desktop was not provided by any .service files" "
[20:18] <James147> trichard: then does it give an error?
[20:18] <Guest30845> slooksterpsv yes
[20:18] <trichard> James147: That's all it gives
[20:18] <Guest30845> gnome is amazing
[20:18] <James147> trichard: hmm, I dont think they are fatial errors
[20:19] <James147> glauce: then go to #ubuntu
[20:19] <James147> Guest30845: ^^ sorry
[20:19] <trichard> James147: plasma-desktop: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/kde4/ion_wunderground.so: undefined symbol: _ZN12IonInterface14resetCompletedEPS_b
[20:19] <trichard> <unknown program name>(5310)/: Communication problem with  "plasma-desktop" , it probably crashed.
[20:19] <trichard> that might be the problem
[20:19] <glauce> James147: ?
[20:19] <James147> trichard: create a new user and see if it starts for them
[20:19] <trichard> probably has something to do with yawp's dataengines
[20:19] <Guest30845> oky thnx
[20:20] <James147> glauce: tab completed the wrong name sorry :)
[20:20] <glauce> James147: okay. :)
[20:20] <slooksterpsv> When I move windows around in KDE it seems jittery
[20:20] <trichard> James147: Removing yawp helped, i think yawp needs an update :)
[20:21] <slooksterpsv> brb
[20:23] <slooksterpsv> that's better =D
[20:26] <glauce> James147: dvd is installed as cdrom...
[20:27] <j_trip> hello kubuntu
[20:32] <j_trip> three cheers for a great kubuntu release :)
[20:34] <BajK> does anybody know an imaging program that can print out files in a specific printout size, like the image is 2800x900 pixels and i want it printed out as 140x450mm
[20:34] <BajK> (gimp is broken so far)
[20:35] <BluesKaj> BajK, not sure , but check out imagemagick
[20:42] <crunch2> Hi, i have installed kubuntu 10.10 on my netbook, every time i reboot he keeps changing between the netbook interface and the regular desktop. How can i set by default to start with the "regular" desktop?
[20:43] <BluesKaj> crunch2, netbook interface ?
[20:45] <BajK> Is it normal that since 4.5 screensaver stops when the password dialog appears on a locked workstation?
[20:45] <crunch2> BluesKaj: yes
[20:47] <j_trip> cruch2, i think there is a setting in the 'system settings' under workspace that specifies if kde is configured for netbook versus desktop
[20:47] <j_trip> sorry,crunch
[20:48] <j_trip> otherwise are you referring to the search and launch activity?
[20:51] <crunch2> j_trip: i checked and it there, but it would be ok, if it would assume that value by default :)
[20:52] <slooksterpsv> Question, how do I make it to where pidgin contact sign ins don't show in the notification try, I'd only like it to show them in there when someone ims me
[20:53] <j_trip> crunch2: yeah I guess that it's odd that it seems to be alternating, have you done a significant update, whereas maybe you could be flipping between two different versions of the system pre and post update?
[20:54] <slooksterpsv> nvm got it, found the area in pidgin where I can change that
[20:57] <BluesKaj> crunch2, maybe the login page menu has a choice
[20:58] <crunch2> j_trip: nop, i installed it from scratch and then updated
[21:00] <crunch2> BluesKaj:  i have searched but haven't found. thks
[21:03] <cragdor> Hi all, i'm having a little trouble, booting a fresh install of kubuntu 10.10, with nvidia software raid. I don't thing grub is finding the kernel/partition
[21:03] <BluesKaj> crunch2, what are the choices in the menu on the login page ?
[21:04] <BluesKaj> cragdor, nvidia software raid ?
[21:04] <cragdor> BlueKaj, Yeah nvidia fake raid
[21:05] <James147> cragdor: Fake raid dosent work very well in linux
[21:06] <cragdor> I got it working very well with 10.04, but i just did a fresh install to get rid of some components i installed form src, and i can't remember what i did with 10.04
[21:10] <BluesKaj> gawd , I havent used a raid controller for over 10 yrs , forgot about it
[21:10] <crunch2> BluesKaj:  under system administration tab
[21:10] <cragdor> Found this going to give it a go: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FakeRaidHowto
[21:10] <crunch2> BluesKaj: i cant find nothing related to the default interface
[21:11] <BluesKaj> crunch2, I just do a plain dual boot but I'm running just one hdd
[21:11] <BluesKaj> oops sorry wrong  guy
[21:12] <BluesKaj> cragdor, are you running multiple hdds ?
[21:13] <cragdor> Yes, two HD's Raid0, pationed four times as Root, Home, Swap, WindowsXP(Games)
[21:14] <slooksterpsv> Kubuntu seems jittery, on like flash, moving windows, etc. do I need to reinstall my graphics card driver? it was installed in Gnome, but I've since added KDE via apt-get install kubuntu-desktop - so should I reinstall the graphics driver?
[21:14] <glauce> Is it possible to install kdegames from maverick dvd to hdd?
[21:14] <cragdor> BluesKaj, Yes, two HD's Raid0, pationed four times as Root, Home, Swap, WindowsXP(Games)
[21:16] <cragdor> BluesKaj, I don't think grub is loading dmraid, so it can't find the fakeraid
[21:16] <BluesKaj> slooksterpsv, no the same driver should work for gnome and kde
[21:16] <slooksterpsv> hmmm seems sluggish is all for doing things that run fast in gnome
[21:17] <BluesKaj> cragdor, maybe a Hardware raid controller is worth looking at
[21:18] <cragdor> BlueKaj, Possibly but i know it works, as it use to work with 10.04 before the wipe, and it has a lot of work on it
[21:18] <BluesKaj> slooksterpsv, you could try installing kubuntu-restricted-extras for flash etc
[21:19] <cragdor> BlueKaj, If the installer picks it up fine, and installs onto the disks then it should work surely. Perhaps when i get it working i will document
[21:19] <slooksterpsv> I've installed the restricted extras already hmm
[21:19] <BluesKaj> James147, are you able to help cragdor , I'm not familiar with raid / fake raid setups
[21:20] <James147> BluesKaj: all I know is fake raid is a pain in linux :)
[21:20] <BluesKaj> James147, right :)
[21:21] <cragdor> BluesKaj, James147 - Lol, yeah it was last time. But at least this time it installed grub correctly onto the partition, I get grub, just not Kubuntu
[21:22] <BluesKaj> yeah slooksterpsv , but I'm not sure if the ubuntu and kubuntu-restricted-extras cover graphics etc on differnt DEs
[21:25] <BluesKaj> slooksterpsv, they don't I run both gnome and kde , and ubuntu-restricted-extras just upgrade whereas , kubuntu-restricted-extras didn't
[21:25] <BluesKaj> err upgraded
[21:32] <kalib> Hi people. How can I install kivio on Kubuntu? Didn't find it on aptitude.
[21:33] <BluesKaj> !kde
[21:35] <kalib> BluesKaj, I already have KDE. I need kivio. :/
[21:36] <BluesKaj> sorry kalib , that was for my benefit , I'm exploring the differences in media on kde and gnome
[21:37] <kalib> ok.
[21:37] <kalib> Anyone knows how can I install kivio on Kubuntu?
[21:38] <BluesKaj> kalib, http://linuxappfinder.com/package/kivio
[21:38] <kalib> thanks
[21:38] <j_trip> in the Device Viewer in KInfocenter my netbook's wlan1 is listed and it displays the mac address however the network connection widget lists the wlan interface as unavailable, is it still probably a driver issue?
[21:39] <BluesKaj> np, kalib ,google-linux is your friend
[22:09] <klaxian> k3b seems to stop burning disks after the first layer has been burned.  any ideas?
[22:14] <thechris> I need help finding my network printer
[22:14] <thechris> kde4 doens't seem to make this easy like previous versions
[22:14] <BluesKaj> klaxian, make sure layer jumps is an option in k3b / settings/configure/devices
[22:16] <akR4> hi here.
[22:18] <klaxian> BluesKaj: checking
[22:18] <j_trip> just in case anyone else has an hp 210, yes you need to run updates and then look for restricted drivers the STAs worked great for me
[22:19] <klaxian> BluesKaj: i don't see that in Devices.  it just shows my writer drive and its automatically detected capabilities
[22:20] <klaxian> BluesKaj: i have k3b 2.0.1
[22:21] <BluesKaj> klaxian, yeah , the default cdrom shows up in devices , but I can't think of why the double layer doesn't burn , maybe you could try a different burn app , check kpackagekit
[22:22] <klaxian> BluesKaj: it burns the first layer then stops with I/O error.  it used to work in Kubuntu 10.04, though I'm not sure if this is specifically related to the upgrade or not
[22:28] <BluesKaj> klaxian, could be , sorry but I seldom burn dvd.cds anymore , having put a lot of our media on a server
[22:28] <klaxian> ok thanks
[22:28] <BluesKaj> and usb
[22:34] <komander> greetings...I'm new to this...can someone help
[22:34] <bulldog98> !ask | komander
[22:37] <cragdor> Hi all, Anyone else getting issues with NVIDIA prop driver and Kubuntu 10.10
[22:42] <pibarnas> is kubuntu dvd install software installable after kubuntu installon a hdd? How? I can't figure it out.
[22:46] <slooksterpsv> ok figured out why it was so slow, I reinitialized my xorg.conf file as it wasn't taking full use of my ati graphics card, so I did the following: sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.back && sudo aticonfig --initial   everything is running so much better, faster, etc.
[22:46] <bulldog98> pibarnas: go to kpackagekit
[22:47] <bulldog98> pibarnas: settings
[22:47] <pibarnas> bulldog98: ?
[22:48] <bulldog98> pibarnas: I discribe you how to add your DVD as a Software Source, so you can install software from it
[22:48] <pibarnas> bulldog98: okay.
[22:48] <pibarnas> bulldog98: that's exactly what I need.
[22:48] <pibarnas> bulldog98: I can't use it.
[22:49] <bulldog98> pibarnas: kpackagekit-> settings-> ... sources
[22:49] <pibarnas> bulldog98: okay...
[22:50] <bulldog98> pibarnas: other software
[22:50] <bulldog98> add cd
[22:54] <bulldog98> then reload your software sources and it should use your dvd
[22:54] <bulldog98> DVD has to be in your DVD-Reader
[22:54] <pibarnas> bulldog98: nevertheless the dvd is mounted on volumes, kpackagekit shows an error mounting cdrom...
[22:54] <pibarnas> bulldog98: do I have to edit a file, such as fstab? dvd is being mounted correctly despite this fact.
[22:55] <pibarnas> bulldog98: it is on dvd-reader.
[23:40] <m_tadeu> hi...I copyed a folder full of documents to another foler, but the metadata from nepomuk is not copied...is there a way to sync this data?
[23:56] <styles2304> I have smb.conf setup to allow multiple users to connect. Each user in smb.conf is an actual linux user, has a samba password, and belongs to the group that the share is owned by. However, I can't connect with any but the linux admin account. What is preventing me from connecting with multiple users?
