connor_Hey, i have a question. Sometimes when im palying music with Amarok, my computer will freeze. However, it will only freeze my screen, and not my mouse. My mouse will work and move as normal, but will not be able to interact with anything. Is there anyway to prevent this or recover from the problem?00:10
connor__it just happened again00:12
connor__Im sorry, i just crashed again.  Did anyone answer?00:13
jakentthat happens to me when i have a kernel panic00:14
connor__oh? and how can i avoid that?00:15
jakentmine was hardware related... so i went with a different usb device00:15
jakenterr usb networking device00:16
connor__Oh00:16
connor__Would this hardware issue be present in Windows? It does not occur anywhere except for Kubuntu00:16
jakentso, for me, it was the driver causing the kernel panic.  Driver would be different in windows00:17
jakentif it occurs only when playing music, maybe sound card drivers?00:18
connor__Ah, ok i understand now.  I think it is most likely my graphics card, as when im playing music, the music still continues through the freeze.  So my new question would be, how do i install a nVidia Driver?00:18
jakenthrm, its been a while, but I was able to install it through the packages00:18
jakenti don't remember more than that00:19
connor__So in KPackageKit?00:19
serverboxNeed help00:19
=== serverbox is now known as Mask
jakentlet me open up my Kubuntu vm00:19
jakenti had a "hardware Drivers" option, not through the KPackageKit00:20
connor_Ok, i found it, Thank You.  Only time can tell now if i will freeze again.  Wish me luck :D00:22
jakentgood luck, hope it helps00:22
valoriezconnor_: you can always run amarok from the console00:24
valoriezamarok -d --nofork00:24
connor_What do you mean?00:24
valoriezand see what the output is, when it's freezing00:24
connor_oh so you mean ALT+f100:24
valoriezI mean, rather than starting it by clicking the icon00:24
connor_Oh,00:24
valoriezI'm not sure alt+f1 gives you a readout00:25
connor_Actually, now that i think about it.  I froze it in the same way when i was clicking too much in the file browser.00:25
valoriezI think you have to start a console00:25
valoriezeither konsole, yatatuake (sp?) or control+alt+f5 ?00:26
valorieznot sure ont eh f key00:26
connor_Ah ok, ill try that.00:26
valoriezI use konsole00:26
valoriezthere is LOTS of output00:26
connor_yeah, ok00:26
valoriezbut when it's freezing, if it is00:26
valoriezyou might get a clue that way00:27
smooph1hi guys ... I have a question ... I use Kubuntu in a dual-monitor setup and I very often move windows to the edge of one monitor ... but if i do that the shadow of that window is shown on the other desktop00:37
smooph1is there a way to prevent that ?00:38
=== muzer is now known as MuzerAway
connor_smooph1, apart from completely turning off shadows, there may be an app for that.  Look up "dual monitors" or even "monitors" in KPackageKit00:44

LOGANhi01:13
DebianNeulinghallo01:15
LOGANis for a laptop bettere to use Kubuntu than Ubuntu?01:16
LOGANIm a linux noob but was trying to try one through windows install to not mess with windows01:16
valoriezlogan, it's a matter of taste01:17
valoriezif you like KDE more than Gnome, you'll like Kubuntu01:17
* valoriez is using kubuntu 10.10 on a laptop right now01:18
valoriezand I love it01:18
valoriezEverything Works01:18
LOGANAnd while Ubuntu Live was ok I seem to have issues with installing. then not finding boot drive then finally worked and tried to install flash plugin for firefox and stuck on 6^ till screen went black with a unresponsive text select cursor01:18
valoriezwhen it was a dual boot, windows was fine01:18
valoriezI'm not enough of an expert to guide you through an install, however01:19
LOGANI start wondering what I did wrong, lol. It seems harder than windows to me unfortionly, asked for help in Ubuntu, but got no response. been trying for a few hours already, so I thought meybe deinstall ubuntu and try kubuntu to see if it makes a difference01:20
LOGANI did in windows install not to mess with partitions etc01:21
LOGANnow it didn't boot into ubuntu, just a black screen and a cursor01:22
LOGANcould be an in windows install issue, I don't know01:22
valoriezsorry, phone01:22
LOGANand I don't really understand the difference bewtween the ubuntu and kubuntu, well they look different, lol01:24
valoriezsorry, phone01:26
endafy I need a Winiso replacement for Ubuntu, I need to be able to edit ISO files, not ruin the boot sectors of the ISO 9664 filesystem, have a decent interface (gtk or QT it doesn't matter) build ISO files, and burn them all in one nifty little package like Winiso01:26
endafyk3b does a decent job of making images, but I really need something that can edit them on the fly like Winiso01:28
valoriezendafy: Qt, not QT, which is QuickTime01:30
LOGANim taking a break for now, gonna tatch some tv . thanks for the time01:30
valoriezLOGAN: ubuntu runs the Gnome desktop01:30
valoriezand apps01:30
valoriezKubuntu runs the KDE desktop, and apps01:30
valoriezyou can use the other desktop's apps01:31
valoriezbut in general, choose the one with the apps you like the most01:31
endafyif it were quicktime I would have specified, linux is not OSX01:31
valoriezendafy: sure, but it's Qt01:31
valoriezanyway, dinnertime!01:31
endafyand GTK != Gnome01:31
valoriezcorrect, that's true01:32
endafyI just want to be able to edit ISO files without mounting them as a loop because it messes with the 9660 and 9664 boot sectors if you edit it01:32
endafyand I have to completely rebbuild the ISO01:33
LOGANsomehow I start to suspect part of the trouble is that my internet connection is wimping out on me all the time01:49
LOGANweird..01:49
LOGANmust be something in linux as windows seems ok, fast and stable01:50
LOGANmeh had connection again, tried installing Blender and poof, connection lost, also mouse not moving anymore.01:56
* LOGAN cries01:56
LOGANbooting back to windows and removing again, for now I stick to Live CD01:58
LOGANunless live CD is acting up as well nowadays01:58
LOGANthanks for the support, Ill look into it again at another time01:59
Tim_BHi all. Anyone know if there has been any progress on the Xinerama causign X to segfault on qt applications? I've been dead in the water since the upgrade to 10.10 :-/02:24
slooksterpsvKSudoku crashes/freezes on me when I try to select a different game such as 16x16 or 25x2502:43
LOGANhas kubuntu the minimize, mazimize and close buttons on the top right side of the windows?02:44
valoriezLOGAN: I believe you can set that up in systemsettings02:48
valoriezbut the default is top right02:49
slooksterpsvhi all I'm having trouble with KSudoku crashing/hanging when I select a puzzle that is 25x25 or 16x16, can anyone assist?02:50
valoriezslooksterpsv: have you filed a bug?02:51
slooksterpsvvaloriez: i have not02:51
valoriezdr. konqui should pop up for you02:51
valoriezand offer to add debug packages if needed02:51
slooksterpsvthat doesn't pop-up it just hangs and then I tell it to terminate02:51
valoriezit's worth the time if you are willing to do so02:51
valoriezoh, that sucks02:52
slooksterpsvI am, is there a way I can invoke it when running the program?02:52
valoriezhave you tried running it from Konsole, to see what happens?02:52
=== amd is now known as kruckss
slooksterpsvlike you can do with valgrind02:52
slooksterpsvyeah all I receive is a warning about i-bus02:53
valoriezwell, you can run it in gdb02:53
slooksterpsvcan not get i-bus daemon's address02:54
valoriez http://amarok.kde.org/wiki/Debugging_(documentation) <--- this is amarok documentation02:54

valoriezor you can do it against kubuntu, this way ^^^02:55
LOGANah thanks valoriez because Ubuntu has recently switched those to the top left and needs trickery to make them correct again. Not very nice. Anyway it kept crashing so ill check out kubuntu tomorrow02:56
valoriezcool, LOGAN02:56
bazhangLOGAN, not much trickery involved, there is a clear command to change it, or just change the theme even02:56
LOGANbazhang: if I show a live cd at friends I want it as simple and good as possible by default :)02:57
LOGANtry explain to windows users that setting something as trivial as those buttons, lol02:58
LOGANmost people I know would have given up already when Im still fighting these things :D02:58
LOGANlets hope its not an hardware issue Im having though02:59
slooksterpsvok so it's not crashing, it's just taking a lot of time to generate the puzzle lol02:59
slooksterpsvsorry :(02:59
valoriezthe problem I have with the liveCD is it is slow02:59
valoriezslooksterpsv: that's the problem with gdb02:59
LOGANwell seems like I created MOTAS in less time :P02:59

slooksterpsv.ro? weird06:05
mjayyup06:05

powered-by-linuxhi , all ; )06:22
powered-by-linuxI'm using (Hardy) updated version of Kubuntu on a Dell Laptop, the udated version is awesome cause it had the proper wi-fi on the iso : )  tho I really really want it on my desktop!, so my question is as follows=06:25
powered-by-linuxcan I connect the laptop up as a network to get the packages I want, as the adapter for the desktop is not linux friendly : )06:27
slooksterpsvpowered-by-linux let me read through that again I got confused06:27
valoriezthe adaptor?06:27
slooksterpsvmjay where did you download the file from?06:27
valoriezI mean, adapter06:28
slooksterpsvlike share your internet connection from wifi to ethernet?06:28
valoriezyou can certainly download an .iso on one computer, and us it on another06:28
* Islington is back.06:29
valoriezyou can even use Windows to install kubuntu06:29
valoriezwith Wubi06:29
mjayfrom torrent06:29
slooksterpsvit almost looks like archive manager (file-roller I believe it's called) will extract it06:31
powered-by-linuxyes I have installed linux on it before, but as I can't get on the net with it, can't pick my packages, hmm wubi eh?, hmmm **thinks**06:31
slooksterpsvoh yeah absolutely powered-by-linux - you'd just add the cd that you burn the iso to as a source in software center, though I'd recommend a reformat and reinstall06:32
powered-by-linuxcan I burn an iso using (k3b) or something, that will keep all the packages I choose, like the way I set up the laptop?06:33
valoriezyou mean you can get on the net with it now06:33
valoriezbut not with linux?06:33
mjayextract it and bind all the files into one file?06:34
alesanHi! I do not see how to upgrade to 10.10 from 10.0406:34
slooksterpsvmjay do you have file-roller on your computer?06:35
valoriezalesan: what are you using to upgrade?06:35
mjayi dont think so06:35
valoriezkpackagekit?06:35
mjayonly ark06:35
alesanvaloriez, kpackagekit?06:35
slooksterpsvmjay - download file-roller it's a gnome item, but works wonders, otherwise, you'll need wine + winrar06:36
alesanoh ok I need to vi /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades06:36
valoriezhave you updated recoently?06:36
alesanand set it to normal06:36
valoriezyou have to do all updates first06:36
alesanvaloriez, of course06:36
valoriezbefore upgrading06:36
mjayhow to do it with a sudo command?06:36
alesanyes of course06:36
valoriezsudo apt-get update06:36
valoriezsudo apt-get dist-upgrade06:37
mjayslooksterpsv: how to do it with a sudo command?06:37
valoriezbut kpackagekit should have a choice up in the top bar once everything is updated06:37
alesanok thanks!06:38
alesanI close everything while it performs the upgrade06:38
alesanbye!06:38
slooksterpsvmjay - sudo apt-get install file-roller06:38
mjayslooksterpsv: ok thanks06:38
powered-by-linuxthx alot  for the ideas, I'll try a few things, I do know getting the packages seperately is useless, as some need 40 to 50 dependcies, which would take forever haha!06:38
slooksterpsvvaloriez - question, when I log into Gnome it doesn't give me the window borders on the windows, I have Ubuntu but installed kubuntu-desktop from the repos, would that have affected that?06:39
valoriezslooksterpsv: in 10.04 ?06:39

slooksterpsvmokush - add it to your fstab07:23
slooksterpsvmokush - use pysdm - it's easy, and all you do is click a couple of items; and it adds it to your fstab so each time you boot/reboot the drive is still mounted, only issue is if the drive is not availalbe it may give you error messages07:23
slooksterpsvunless there's another way, but that's the only way I know how07:24
mokushso you say stop using the built-in "system setting" to mount, and manualy mount using fstab?07:24
migumithanks for trying to help me out everyone but im having a hard time here understanding you. i feel like im an alien here. poor me.07:25

macoin case its not clear (as i just noticed), "unzip" is a command07:30
slooksterpsvmigumi - i'm going to pm you with the command it's long07:31
migumioh i already tried that one using ark07:31
migumimaco:oh i already tried that one using ark07:31
migumibut i only got them into smaller separate files07:32
macoid use cat to put them together07:32
slooksterpsvmigumi, just run that command in terminal it will download and install wine, download winrar, start the winrar installation then open up winrar so you can open the .ro files07:32

Kalidarndoes anyone know of a pulseaudio bug regarding cpu usage07:43
Kalidarnive heard it's had a lot of problems in the past07:43
Kalidarn(simply shutting down vmware-vmx) doesn't fix it have to also kill pulse audio and restart so im not sure what the case is with that07:43

Peace-kyubutsu: i am here to support kubuntu since 3 year i think i know rulez08:27
computerilliterai dont know how you call it08:27
valorie_you can just use your mouse scroll to move through apps or desktops if you like also08:27
computerilliterabut i want my kubuntu to act like the one in windows OS08:27
* valorie_ prefers to use a toolbar08:28
valorie_well, it's been so long since I used windows08:28
valorie_I don't know how they are doing things now08:28
alesancomputerillitera, yes the ALT+TAB on KDE has always been... useless08:28
computerilliterathat when you try to minimize an application it will only stay below your desktop08:28
=== valorie_ is now known as valoriez
valoriezalesan: I believe in systemsettings, you set your fonts08:29
valoriezsize, type, everything08:29
alesanvaloriez, do you know which icon in system settings?08:30
valoriezhmmm, let me look08:31
computerilliterawhat i mean is i just want to minimize things and let them stay just below my monitor so that i wont have to use alt+tab keys everytime i switch to another window08:31
valoriezApplication Appearance will do the fonts in all your apps08:31
alesanoh ok thanks08:31
valoriezif you want more fonts, looks like font installer is in system administration08:32
valoriezwhich is reasonable08:33
alesanno verdana is fine08:33
alesanI do not need 1000's of fonts08:33
valoriezalesan: did that do what you wanted?08:45
alesanyes08:45
alesanthanks08:45
alesanwell I need to restart apps08:45
valoriezsuper!08:45
valoriezright, of course08:45
alesanfor example now xchat is still with the ugly font08:45
alesanbut not in the main part of the window08:45
alesanonly in the textline at the bottom, in the menu and titlebar08:46
* valoriez uses konversation08:46
alesanhm08:48
alesanlast one I used an IRC client that was for KDE... it was ksirc I think08:48
alesanor... no maybe it was konversation08:49
alesannow I do not remember why I switched back to xchat08:49
alesanprobably because xchat takes less real estate on the monitor08:49
alesanI like it things when they are compact08:50
valoriezI started out with mIRC in Windows08:52
valorieznow that I've found Konvi, I no longer miss it08:52
computerilliterahey slook..how do i be able to minimize the application windows and just them put the minimized windows below my desktop?08:53
computerilliterahow do i be able to minimize the application windows and just them put the minimized windows below my desktop?08:54
computerilliteraanybody08:54
computerilliterai'd better switch to windows OS.08:55
computerilliterano more patience for kubuntu08:55
alesanhe's right08:56
alesanthere are some things in KDE that are great, like the "focus stricly under mouse"08:57
alesanbut the ALT+TAB in windows is much better08:57
alesanand it would be so simple to implement08:57
computerilliteraalt+tab works fine with me in kubuntu08:57
computerilliterabut i just want to see the minimize buttons right below my desktop08:58
alesanyou mean the task bar?08:58
computerilliterayeah08:58
alesanthat is fine with me... what happens? you don't see the task bar?08:59
computerilliterai want the minimize buttons to be visible in the task bar08:59
valoriezhe didn't want to alt tab08:59
valoriezhe wanted a toolbar09:00
alesanminimize buttons...?09:00
valoriezplasma toolbar09:00
alesancomputerillitera, can you describe the "minimize button"?09:00
computerilliteraokay09:00
computerilliterawell09:00
alesanvaloriez, the "plasma" thing I never understand what is09:00
valoriezcomputerillitera: google for plasma toolbar, and see if that's what you want09:00
valoriezI think it is09:00
alesanI disabled plasma, I just want a regular desktop09:00
valoriezok09:01
valoriezthat's fine09:01
valoriezhowever, I like the plasma stuff09:01
valoriezthe applets09:01

sresuKSysTrayCmd working for every application. How can I exit it permanently?17:38
an1hi.. is there an equivalent for GNOME_DESKTOP_SESSION_ID in kubuntu?17:39
dasKreechan1: Hmm?17:39
dasKreechRickKnight: click on the button at the very end. (You have to unlock the panel first of course)17:40
sresuPici?17:41
an1dasKreech: im using tweetdeck. Any link i click does not open on a browser(it used to in 10.04). So i searched and found this. Im not sure if it will solve the problem: http://support.tweetdeck.com/entries/59272-why-do-links-that-i-click-in-tweetdeck-not-open-in-the-correct-browser17:41
sresuRickKnight: What do you want to do? Customize the positions of icon in the panel?17:42
RickKnightsresu: Yes, I want to rearrange them.17:42
* dasKreech suggests choqok to an117:43
RickKnightdasKreech: All that allows is to remove them.17:43
sresuRickKnight: Are the widgets lockes? If they are 'Unlock Widgets' by right clicking on the panel17:43
dasKreechRickKnight: just click on the icon and drag it to where you want it. You'll see a little 4way arrow17:44
sresu* ...are,17:44
sresuRickKnight: It works the way dasKreech suggested, try it out17:45
RickKnightMy panel is unlocked, but I can't get the icons to move. This has always worked in the past.17:45
dasKreechRickKnight: describe what's happening17:46
sresuRickKnight: Can you resize the panel?17:47
RickKnightI know the panel is unlocked because when I right click on the panel it says "Lock Panel Alt+D, L". I right click on the icon and I get a menu that has emove, Icon Settings, and Panel Options. The icon will not move.17:47
RickKnightnot emove, Remove.17:48
RickKnightYes, I can resize the panel form Panel Options17:49

sresuRickKnight: Its unlikely but try making some space and see if it helps17:51
sresuRickKnight: Resize it completely17:51
dasKreechRickKnight: you don't right click you just normal left click and drag. it should have a little 4 way arrow when you mouse over it17:53
RickKnightI moved the panel to the right edge and now I can move the icons.17:54
TopGearhi17:54
sresuranjan: Ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots.17:54
sresu!best17:54
ubottuUsually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots.17:54
RickKnightOK. I moved the panel down to the bottom and now I can move the icons.17:55

BelisarivsI have a terrible problem with Kubuntu MM. Installation is OK, however, while after reboot into freshly installed system strange things start to happen. Initialy system works, but after some while, icons start to disappear, applications are not started from menu ....  If I reboot machine, kdm doesn't start, "sudo whatever" reports that command sudo doesn't exit ....18:49
BelisarivsOuch. Please ignor those sentences marked as flood. Unintentional.18:50
BelisarivsNobody does face my issue with freshly installed Kubuntu?18:51
slooksterpsvweird let me see18:51
slooksterpsvwhat filesystem ext4?18:51
Belisarivsext318:52
BelisarivsLL was installed on that fs before without problems. Then i chose to reinstall it with MM (but did't let it be formatted).18:52
slooksterpsvUh... I'd reboot into safe mode and run a fsck -fy18:52
Belisarivsok18:53
Belisarivsthanks18:53
slooksterpsvyw sounds like a corruption somewhere on the disk, if that doesn't work I'd try the hdd  cd for your hdd manufacturer make sure it's not going bad18:53
slooksterpsvanyone know of a widget that I could get for KDE for Pandora? I was thinking prism, but something like what AWN has with it's applet for pandora18:56
slooksterpsv??? I'm an idiot, I'll just do AWN have it dock on the right and do it that way =D18:56
RickKnightsresu: no, haven't yet.19:04
Belisarivsslooksterpsv: fsck returned no error, I have Windows and Opensuse on that disk and that is OK.19:05

=== Viliny_ is now known as Viliny
rorkbeised: I don't remember how it looked like, but there should be an option "Do not use this partion"20:02
beisedYes you're right, but each partition that you chose to use thare's no option to not format it20:03
beisedNow I can figure that the best should be to not use the partition during the installatiom process20:04
beisedAnd put it to work after that!20:04
rorkthat would be easiest indeed20:05
beisedBut the question is: there's an option to mark for farmatin or not and it is not working properly.20:05
beisedSorry--> formating20:05
dasKreechbeised: so all the options to format are checked and cannot be unchecked?20:09
beisedYes, at least this is what happens with me. In fact, you can unchekthe formating option,  but the "v" mark  come to "gray"  and it  made me confused20:12
beisedSince the Black  "V" mark stll ther for the partitions I do need to format20:13

James147beised: you dont ahve to formate drives in the installer... and it should ojnly check the drive for formatting if you choise a different partition tpye then is already on it... since it requires a formate if you want to change the filesystem tpye20:18

bfooteI just upgraded Kubuntu 10.04 to 10.10... I had been using gnome's nm-applet as my network management interface which had worked great...22:27
bfooteafter trying out the applet that came with (knetwork manager I suppose) I started to have connectivity issues with my wifi, which was similar to my experience in 10.04, hence my switch to nm-applet22:29
James147bfoote: knetworkmanager, or the network manager widget? (yes they are different)22:30
bfoote...so I uninstalled knetwork manager, installed nm-applet, then tried to run nm-applet from the command line, but it wont' populate the system tray22:30
bfooteJames147: I think knetworkmanager22:30
bfooteam I right in my assumption that knetworkmanager is the default interface from the systray?22:31
bfooteI as because after unsuccessfully getting nm-applet to work correctly I went back and reinstalled knetworkmanager and this one doesn't look anything like what I had just after upgrade22:32
bfoote*ask22:32
valoriezhmmm22:33
James147bfoote: try installing "plasma-widget-networkmanagement" (and add it to the panel the same way you add widgets to the panel, or to sys tray from the systray settings)22:33
James147bfoote: also, knetworkmanager no longer exists in 10.10, its been renamed to network-manager-kde22:35
valoriezand it is much, much better22:35
valoriezIMO22:36
James147valoriez: what is?22:36
valorieznetwork-manager-kde22:36
valoriezI used to have to switch to wicD22:36
valoriezsince this laptop has a flakey wireless card22:37
valoriezbut knock on wood, in Mav it's super22:37
James147valoriez: network-manager-kde and knetworkmanager are essentially the same thing... its just a package rename as far as I know22:37
valoriezthere had to have been improvements22:37
valoriezlol22:37
James147(ie network-manager-kde install knetworkmanager)22:37
James147valoriez: you should try the plasmoid, I find it much nicer :)22:38
valoriezit's called network management22:39
valoriezand I think it is a plasmoid22:39
valoriezsits down with the rest of them22:39
bfooteaha!  it was the plasmoid that was installed initially, and I agree, it looks pretty slick22:39

ubottulloowen: To install a Java runtime on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java. For the Sun Java products and browser plugin, search for the sun-java6- packages in the !partner repository on Lucid (which must be enabled), or !multiverse repository on older releases.22:44
