[00:12] oh [00:12] the widgen in the system tray [00:12] widget* [00:13] im not sure the name of that program i have not been on kubuntu since april lol [00:13] do you have a list of connections in the little window? [00:13] if so, click to select the one you wish to connect to [00:14] all it says is wireless enabled auto etho 0 and create a network [00:14] other than no [00:14] do you see a little Scan button? [00:14] i go and create a wireless network icon and i click scan and nothing [00:14] ah [00:14] but then again i dont know how many networks are in my complex last i looked i was the only one [00:14] sounds like u have the problem i had [00:14] does your wireless card have a switch? [00:15] yes and it is oon [00:15] i had the same problem [00:15] i connected wireless in windows [00:15] about 10 minutes ago [00:15] it had to do with my driver for it on linux [00:15] ok, so you know your card works [00:15] that's good [00:15] yes that is correct i am on a dell insprion 1525 [00:15] well sort of [00:15] yeah [00:15] theannihilator: hey, i have the same problem [00:15] dell computers and linux well not always a good combo cause of the broadcom cards [00:15] theannihilator: its because you and i have a wireless card by Broadcom [00:16] yep [00:16] it was supposed to have been fixed lastyear [00:16] but nope nothing yet [00:16] well, i am working on getting the driver for the card [00:16] supposedly you have to download and install a firmware driver [00:16] but i can't actually find the driver for the card [00:16] thats why i am here to see if there is anyone that can solve it besides using the sstupid ndiswrapper [00:17] that is the whole reason i have not switch to using kubuntu as a main os [00:18] i am trying to just vmware the system but kaspersky is on the fritz.... [00:19] hey i got a question is there a software program in the rep. called inspircd? [00:21] in 10.10 there is [00:21] dunno about 10.04 [00:21] k cause i am to lazy to compile it [00:21] how do i upgrade 10.04 to 10.10 using wuzbi? [00:26] andrewh192: how would upgrade kubuntu that has been installed using wuzbi? [00:27] theannihilator: i am not sure [00:27] since 10.10 is LTS [00:27] I think it's worth a clean install [00:27] hi guys. i think i need some advice from y'all. i'm thinking of getting rid of gnome and replacing it with kde for now (gnome in maverick doesn't feel right as of now). is there any show-stopper i should be aware of? [00:28] valorie, 10.04 is LTS not 10.10 [00:28] ruffleS: are you thinking of doing that as an upgrade, or clean install [00:28] oops [00:28] sorry, you are right [00:28] valorie, i don't know.. i guess i'll just apt-get it [00:28] so do a clean still? [00:28] I had problems with gnome/KDE conflicts, and did a clean install instead [00:29] which banished the problems [00:29] valorie, are you currently on kubuntu 10.10? are there any bugs annoying you? [00:29] on 10.10, and loving it [00:29] no bugs I can think of [00:30] my internet connection ain't no good. that's why i was thinking of apt-get instead of the clean install thing [00:30] the weatherapplet was buggy at first [00:30] but it's been updated, and seems stable now [00:30] ruffle, how about zsync for the .iso [00:31] mmmmm.. sounds interesting.. [00:31] then you won't have to rely on your connection much [00:31] i do have a 10.10 iso here [00:31] I wrote a blog post about how to do it [00:31] sec [00:31] ok but the one i've got is ubuntu's iso though [00:32] http://linuxgrandma.blogspot.com/2010/10/necessity-mother-of-learning-zsync.html [00:32] worth downloading the proper kubuntu one, IMO [00:32] yeah.. thought so... [00:33] i have even considered sticking to win 7 until 11.10 is out! i'm not enjoying ubuntu and gnome as i used to back in 10.04 [00:33] i dont like kde period in kubuntu [00:33] i liked the old kde 3 layout [00:33] I'm the wrong person to talk to about gnome, since I've never liked it, at all [00:33] i do not like these window widgets [00:34] theannihilator, welcome to the club, mate. i don't like kde either.. i'm just going to give it yet another go [00:34] theannihilator: you can do the old-fashioned way, if you want [00:34] ? [00:34] what kde 3 on kubuntu 1010 [00:35] no, but you don't have to have any window widgets [00:35] or any special desktop effects turned on [00:35] as usual, KDE gives you maximum control over what you want [00:39] brb [00:50] help im lost [00:51] i did asearch for g++ compilers [00:52] and all but the the multilib files say amd64 [00:52] i take it back all do [00:52] which one will work for me>? [00:54] you might want to ask in a devel channel [00:54] which is? [00:54] #dev? [00:54] #kubuntu-devel [00:54] or #kde-devel [00:54] depending on exactly what you need [00:54] its for kubuntu [00:55] sort of quiet in there right now, but great group of people [00:55] they don't bite [00:55] sure... [01:18] valorie, thanks for your help. i'm already downloading the .iso. i will do the zsync thing when i get it [01:29] hmmm, I would have started with zsync [01:30] im looking for information about native support of ati video cards [01:34] Hello, I am from the Artwork Team and I am looking for the best contact in regards to Kubuntu artwork. [01:36] hi j_baer! [01:36] j_baer, that might be something best to ask on a mailing list or in #kubuntu-developers [01:36] can you come into #kubuntu-devel ? [01:36] right, #kubuntu-devel === Patricia is now known as Deusa [01:36] valorie, remember i ain't got the kubuntu iso. the one i have is ubuntu's [01:37] I don't see our art people in this chan [01:37] ruffleS: right, but there is a zsync link to start with [01:37] Is #kubuntu-devel the right? === Deusa is now known as kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk [01:37] sorry [01:37] I hope re-naming will work for you [01:37] probably will [01:37] j_baer, yep [01:38] valorie, yeah i'll try that as well === james is now known as Guest2716 [02:05] anyone use cairo-dock? === Muzer is now known as MuzerAway [02:05] cairo-dock w/kde [02:11] whats the name of the package with the world clock plasmoid? === ruffleS is now known as ruffZ|afK [02:38] Hi valorie [02:41] good evening, dasKreech [02:41] how are you doing? [02:41] doing well, how about you? [02:42] head hurts [02:43] I'm sorry to hear that [02:43] * valorie offers tea [02:45] lovely :) [02:49] I have a question, I'm currently connected to a windows computer through cifs. [02:49] I'm using the command.. [02:49] sudo mount -t cifs //192.168.2.108/ChrisFiles/ -o username=Chris,password=PASS /mnt/winserver [02:50] Is there a way I can replace 192.168.2.108 (the LAN address) with just the name (myserver) so it doesn't matter if I'm on the LAN or if I'm using a VPN? [02:54] if you have name resolution in your lan yes [02:58] Name resolution on the router correct DasKreech? [02:58] if that serves the lan then yes [02:58] Yeah. [02:58] Hmm, let me double check. [02:58] Also, how can I get that to automatically mount my server on login? [03:01] chris@chrisLaptop:~$ sudo mount -t cifs //myserver/ChrisFiles/ -o username=Chris,password=PASS /mnt/winserver [03:01] mount error: could not resolve address for myserver: No address associated with hostname [03:02] dasKreech ^ [03:04] can You ping myserver? [03:04] nope, unknown host dasKreech [03:04] But I can map the network drive just fine on my windows machine [03:04] there you go [03:05] o_0 [03:06] I can map it just fine from (myserver) a windows machine [03:06] using //myserver [03:06] see if you can get the name resolution working on the Linux machines. It needs to be able to ping within your .lan domain [03:07] perhaps I can write a shell script that pings that IP address, and if it can't find it, use the other address (the Hamachi address) [03:07] that could be a work around.. hmmm........ [03:13] What replaced "kdesu" command? It doesn't appear to be installed anymore on Kubuntu 10.10 [03:15] kdesudo [03:16] ah [03:23] Thought they were aliased to each other [03:29] getting all my windows set up === muesli_ is now known as muesli [03:52] i need help. i've just installed kubuntu but i can't go online on my dsl connection [03:52] i can set the connection but the widget won't show it [03:57] ruffzzz: what is your setup? [03:57] dasKreech: what do you mean? [03:58] how is your dsl connection setup? [03:58] do you need a password [03:59] yes i do [03:59] it can be configured but kde's widget won't show it to me so i can go online [03:59] and yes i do need password [04:03] dasKreech: u there? [04:17] hello people [04:17] do any body know how can i have a normal desktop in ubuntu [04:17] I first had ubuntu 10.10 [04:17] then i installed kubuntu-desktop [04:18] when I restarted, the screen got blue and kubuntu written on it (before it was redish/orangish with ubuntu written [04:19] when I restarted, the blue screen [04:19] and that's it [04:19] faraz [04:19] When you get to where you enter your username and password [04:19] a few new softwares installed [04:19] There should be a dropbox to switch between GNOME and KDE [04:19] I don't put a password anywhere [04:19] chris062689: In Ubuntu it's Ubuntu and KDE [04:20] it login automatically [04:20] I doesn;t ask for id/password [04:20] what do i do [04:21] then logout. [04:21] And it should bring you back to that screen. [04:22] I restarted the computer [04:22] anyway ... I have changed my login menu [04:22] now I will restart [04:23] if I don't comeback, that means I have something new to see(Hopefully good effects) [04:24] There is something wrong with my network connet [04:25] wlan [04:29] i'm looking for the world clock plasmoid. what package is that in? === kiosfoss is now known as guspur [04:58] Hi, is there any voice command tool for KDE? I mean how to run script just speaking to microphone on KDE :P ? [05:16] !netsplit [05:16] netsplit is when two IRC servers of the same network (like freenode) disconnect from each other, so users on one server stop seeing users on the other. If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit === tremmons is now known as iflema [05:20] uhh so I have a bluetooth mouse that doesn't use a pin for pairing.. and apparently that doesn't work with the distro's release of bluedevil [05:21] there's a forum post like that here: http://kubuntuforums.net/forums/index.php?topic=3114068.0 and they suggest to the person to use the "trunk version" of blue devil [05:21] I have no idea what that means or how to do it. [05:22] It means - either download a tarball, or build from git or svn, where ever it might be [05:22] let me look at the post... [05:23] http://gitorious.org/bluedevil is where it is [05:24] have you ever built anything from source before? [05:24] yeah I went there but I don't see how to download it? [05:24] I've done some make && make install some from tgz [05:24] you don't down load from gitorious, you clone [05:24] but I have no clue how git works [05:24] I build amarok from source (git) [05:24] but I'm far from an expert [05:26] so do you know what I need to do? [05:27] I wouldn't be comfortable doing it with so little information [05:27] sec [05:28] shoot, there is no #bluedevil [05:31] you might look at the archives of this list: https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-hardware-devel [05:35] valorie: #solid [05:44] I'll keep that in mind, dasKreech [05:48] basy: Simon [05:51] dasKreech: thanks [05:52] hope you enjoy I'm quite impressed with it === nuboon2age_ is now known as nUboon2Age [05:59] hello [05:59] can anybody tell me what is the command to install the latest kde repos from backports ?

If dome 3rd party package is borking the whole deal? [09:46] Nakkel: What happens if you just run $ sudo aptitude install [09:47] alvin: Have to install aptitude and try...

For example when using kopete, I'll press enter to send a message, and several seconds later the conversation pane will get distorted, and then a couple seconds after that be updated. [16:16] It's not just that application. Sometimes buttons will not appear on dialogs, and I have to hover over where they would be for them to appear. [16:19] bbeck, have you updated lately ? [16:22] how to add custom kernel options in the new grub? [16:23] BluesKaj: I'm running 4.5.3 on Kubuntu 10.10. This has been a problem since the initial release of 10.10. [16:24] sobczyk: add them to /etc/default/grub GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT and run update-grub after that [16:24] !grub2 [16:24] GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager since Ubuntu 9.10. For more information and troubleshooting for GRUB2 please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 [16:25] bbeck, it could be graphics driver related ..which card do you use ? [16:26] BluesKaj: This is what I have, Intel Corporation Mobile GM965/GL960 Integrated Graphics Controller. [16:28] BluesKaj: It's weird, because I can force repaints (e.g. change the size of a window, hover over a button, etc.) I just don't know what may have changed to cause it.

Does anybody know something about curious bugs in kde in connection with kms? everything crashes and nobody knows why. Now I thought it may be because i deactivated kms via "nomodeset" in grub. So I activated it again but now kde doesnt even start. I asked this in #kde as well and i got the suggestion to ask here again because it is x that crashes and not kde. [17:47] hello [17:47] I have a very strange and annoying problem [17:48] Has the Kubuntu netbook version been pulled? [17:48] Kde does not treat the circumflex normal anymore but makes things like ê out of circumflex + e. But I need it to use the sign in a mathematical contect. [17:48] Does anybody know how to make kde to treat the sign normal again? [17:49] In any non kde-app like firefox or openoffice everything is fine! so I thing the problem must be kde- related [17:52] any ideas concerning my problem? [18:02] Sentynel: the desktop and netbook images were merged, it decides by system type and screen size what to use, you can switch between desktop and netbook in systemsettings too [18:03] yofel: yup, I worked that out, just grabbed the image and booted my netbook off it [18:03] looking good === matthew is now known as Guest6771 [18:33] erm, okay, my kubuntu installer just crashed on "configuring apt" stage. threw up a message complaining that getting extra packages from the CD failed, then threw up an "installer crashed" message with a blank details field [18:33] any chance I could drop out to the terminal and prod it into finishing the installation? === rohit is now known as Guest74549 === mren|off is now known as mren === c is now known as Guest31913 [19:24] hi everyone. i am running kubuntu 10.10 and have a soundblaster 5.1 (ca106). alsamixer shows all channels, kmix and phonon configurator only one analog stereo channel. can anybody help? [19:24] Guest31913: in console, type pavucontrol, then from the configuration tab select a suitable output (probably 5.1 output + analog input or something along those lines) [19:25] er, suitable profile [19:26] Sentynel: allright, let me try that. thanks ahead! [19:36] Sentynel: the pavuconfig thing worked, it works like a charm now, still there is only one channel (named Analog Surround 5.1) to manage. on 10.4 and 9.10 i had three channels (front, side, center) to finetune... any ideas? [19:36] crischan: you can tweak the volumes of the individual channels also in pavucontrol [19:36] output devices tab [19:37] Sentynel: yes. but i had amarok on my rear channels and other apps on my front channels. used to be able to config that in phonon config, but there it onlny shows one 5.1 channel... [19:38] crischan: no more, I fear [19:38] unless phonon gets an upgrade to properly interface with pulse [19:39] I have a patched phonon backend that bypasses pulse [19:39] Sentynel: ah, ok. it's by design. well, i can live with that for now. [19:39] but thank you very much for the answers!

Is that okay? Reads like a bad thing. [23:26] is there a way then that i could just use the apt-get command to install that? [23:27] andrewh192: if you just do sudo apt-get install xul-ext-lightning it should pull in thunderbird as well if it's not already installed [23:28] Sentynel: thanx [23:35] Sentynel: you know if i can sync my google calender with my calender on thunderbird?
