[00:15] <kilogolfsix> is Koffice ready to replace OpenOffice???
[00:17] <andrewh192> aloha, I was wondering how I change the sound that happens after I login to my desktop
[00:21] <kilogolfsix> to change the sound go to  System Settings, System Notification Configuration, Event Source drop down menu,  KDE workspace.  adjust the login sound
[00:22] <apparle> can someone help me configure kremotecontrol or kdelirc
[00:33] <caiotiago> Hi all, I have an issue with powerdevil. It is not working perfectly for an user.
[00:33] <caiotiago> It will change the brightness, but won't change profile or suspend
[00:33] <caiotiago> If I create a new user it works for the new user, but copying the powerdevilrc and powerdevilprofilesrc won't help.
[00:34] <caiotiago> I've also deleted the .kde directory of this user, but powerdevil still doesn't work.
[00:34] <caiotiago> It won't work through the plasmoid, kcontrol or even using qdbus on the command line
[00:35] <caiotiago> but it raises no error
[00:35] <caiotiago> for instance:
[00:35] <caiotiago> qdbus org.kde.powerdevil /modules/powerdevil suspend 2
[00:35] <caiotiago> just return nothing, without raising an error
[00:36] <d_ed> caiotiago: you could try going straight to org.freedesktop.powermanager and hitting suspend.
[00:36] <caiotiago> let me try
[00:37] <d_ed> I'm half expecting to see "caiotiago has gone offline" right now..
[00:37] <caiotiago> it's another computer, ;)
[00:37] <d_ed> teehee ok
[00:37] <d_ed> the paths are: "org.freedesktop.PowerManagement","/org/freedesktop/PowerManagement", QDBusConnection::sessionBus()
[00:38] <d_ed> just so happened that I had them on screen at the time when I saw this on IRC>
[00:39] <caiotiago> didn't worked either
[00:39] <d_ed> and nothing in dmesg?
[00:42] <caiotiago> d_ed: the last thing on dmesg is "Skipping EDID probe due to cached edid"
[00:43] <caiotiago> the other messages are from the boot
[00:44] <caiotiago> I had installed lxde, xfce and openbox on that computer, and also there was an update to kde, so I don't know what broke it
[00:44] <caiotiago> I added the kubuntu-ppa and updated, but it didn't fix either
[00:59] <Patricia> hi
[00:59] <Patricia> updating kde 4.4 to 4.5 on kubuntu 10.04?
[01:03] <Patricia> hello help me
[01:12] <Patricia> http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-ppa/backports/ubuntu  ????
[01:29] <djustice> Patricia: move to 10.10?
[01:29] <djustice> backports are always shifty.. usually just meant to pull some pkgs out of.. not to merge onto the system..
[01:30] <djustice> btw, respect loving ubunteers, give it to get it. now go respect the computer. and code something awesome.
[01:30] <djustice> kthxbai
[01:30]  * djustice flies away to chakra-land
[01:30] <Patricia> no kubuntu 10.10
[01:31] <Patricia> kde 4.4 too 4.5
[01:32] <Patricia> I only upgrade kde
[03:05] <cxo> valorie, hey are you valorie from new mexico tech?
[03:14] <mookak> ?
[03:25] <valorie> cxo: no, I live (and am from) Washington State, USA
[03:25] <valorie> haven't had the pleasure of visiting NM yet
[03:25] <cxo> yeah my bad, got confused with another, she works for Intel
[03:26] <cxo> Don't know why but I recognise your surname
[03:27] <valorie> haha, Zimmermans are a dime a dozen
[03:27] <valorie> people usually ask me if I'm related to Matt Zimmerman
[03:28] <valorie> so I introduced myself to him at the last UDS and asked if we were
[03:28] <valorie> lol -- really he and my husband
[03:28] <valorie> but he doesn't know where in Germany his Zimmermanns came from
[03:28] <cxo> well Bob Dylan is also Zimmerman
[03:28] <valorie> sure, and my husband is Robert Zimmerman also
[03:29] <valorie> born in Oregon rather than Minnesota, however
[03:29] <cxo> Ahh now I remember, http://zimmermannwear.com/
[03:30] <valorie> those are some nice suits
[03:33]  * cxo agrees
[04:05] <dockhorn> i'm trying to install digikam on my fresh kubuntu 10.04; can someone help me?  it seems to want to install 52 other packages...  that's not normal, is it?
[04:07] <dockhorn> anybody?
[04:15] <valorie> digikam isn't standard?
[04:15] <valorie> hmm, guess not
[04:16] <valorie> in 10.10, it's about 20 packages
[04:17] <valorie> including Konqueror, which is interesting
[05:21] <roinux> hola (hi there)
[05:22] <roinux> somebody?
[05:23]  * cxo shhhh if we stay still enough, he might go away
[05:24] <roinux> somebody know linux?
[05:39] <valorie> roinux | !ask
[05:39] <valorie> hmmm
[05:40] <valorie> !ask | roinux
[05:40]  * valorie goes to get pie
[05:40] <roinux> somebody?
[05:43] <roinux> who know about "programacion de puertos usb"
[05:44] <cxo> In English?
[05:45] <valorie> !es
[05:46] <valorie> unless that's Portuguese.....
[05:46] <roinux> programme port usb
[05:47] <valorie> who would know is the developer channels
[05:47] <valorie> if you are speaking of programming for USB ports
[05:47] <roinux> yeah
[05:48] <roinux> is there any channels about developer?
[05:48] <valorie> #kubuntu-devel might be best
[05:48] <valorie> if there is a better channel, they will know it
[05:49] <roinux> thanks
[05:49] <valorie> good luck!
[06:42] <Maka> greetings :) i am an ubuntu user, trying to install kde. I'd really like to try kubuntu, but I need help.
[06:43] <Maka> http://www.mynitor.com/2010/02/27/kubuntu-is-awesome/comment-page-1/#comment-551 is where i posted my problem (you'll see mine down at the bottom)
[06:43] <Maka> please someone help?
[06:44] <Maka> anyone? there's an awful lot of people here... :(
[06:45] <arg501> you can install kubuntu from the ubuntu software center
[06:46] <arg501> and then you have both, but you will see ubuntu programs in kubuntu and kubuntu in ubuntu, some people don't like that but I don't care personally
[06:47] <arg501> oh and when you search for it in the software center, make sure you click the "Show Technical items" at the bottom
[06:48] <arg501> and then KDE plasma desktop or whatever should be an option in there
[06:57] <valorie> Maka: you have broken packages?
[06:57] <valorie> is that your comment?
[06:57] <Maka> yes
[06:57] <valorie> did you try installing from the software center?
[06:57] <Maka> it's not installing because it says there are broken packages, but i have no idea how to fix that
[06:58] <Maka> yes from synaptec package manager
[06:58] <valorie> even in the software center?
[06:58] <valorie> ah
[06:58] <Maka> and also tried from command line
[06:58] <Maka> i used this command sudo apt-get install --install-recommends kubuntu-desktop
[06:58] <valorie> well, possibly you could try installing a few of those which "are not going to be installed'
[06:58] <valorie> by themselves
[06:59] <Maka> isnt that what the -install-recommends does?
[06:59] <valorie> hmmm, I didn't realize that open-office had a 'kde version"
[06:59] <Maka> Reading package lists... Done
[06:59] <Maka> Building dependency tree
[06:59] <Maka> Reading state information... Done
[06:59] <Maka> Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
[06:59] <Maka> requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
[06:59] <FloodBotK1> Maka: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[06:59] <FloodBotK2> Maka: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[06:59] <Maka> distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
[06:59] <valorie> yes, and it seems to be jamming up somewhere
[06:59] <valorie> hmmm
[07:00] <valorie> what version of ubuntu are you running?
[07:00] <valorie> FloodBotK1: stop being annoying
[07:03] <Maka> ok i tried to install one of them manually.. it gave me this: E: Unable to locate package language-selctor-qt
[07:03] <Maka> so does that mean its in a repository i dont have?
[07:03] <Maka> and how would i find out how to add it?
[07:03] <valorie> what version of Ubuntu are you using?
[07:03] <Maka> (please forgive my many questions, i'm pretty new to this)
[07:03] <Maka> 10.10
[07:04] <valorie> well, I had Ubuntu installed before, and tried to install Kubuntu-desktop, from 10.04
[07:04] <valorie> it didn't go well
[07:05] <valorie> so I don't know that I'm the best person to advise you
[07:05] <Maka> hmm... i may just try it in a virtualbox and see if it's really what i want to do anyway... if i like it.. perhaps i'll dual boot? but that's not really what i want... i wanted it inside the same linux.
[07:06] <Maka> so i could choose between which desktop i wanted at login
[07:06] <valorie> you don't have to dual boot
[07:06] <valorie> you can choose on login
[07:06] <Maka> that's what i'm trying to do
[07:06] <Maka> but i cant even get it to install
[07:07] <valorie> I'm wondering if there is a bug in Ubuntu which is causing this
[07:07] <valorie> however, many people successfully do what you are doing
[07:08] <valorie> are you using 32-bit, or 64?
[07:08] <valorie> I'm wondering if my botched bit was somehow getting them confused
[07:08] <valorie> if so, seems odd that it's still happening
[07:09] <valorie> language-selector-qt is certainly available
[07:09] <valorie> did you paste in that error message?
[07:10] <valorie> if so, did you misspell the packagename, or did apt?
[07:10] <Maka> i copy/pasted the name so i dont think it's misspelled
[07:10] <Maka> this machine is capable of 64 bit.. but i installed 32 bit
[07:11] <Maka> is there a way i could tell for sure which it has? 32 bit or 64 bit?
[07:12] <valorie> if you installed 32, it's 32
[07:12] <valorie> that name is certainly misspelled
[07:12] <Maka> ooh
[07:12] <Maka> lemme try again
[07:12] <valorie> please try apt-get install with the correct spelling
[07:13] <Maka> oh i see what i did. :\
[07:13] <valorie> what?
[07:13] <Maka> i get another broken package message *sigh*
[07:13] <Maka> this is getting frustrating
[07:13] <valorie> very weird
[07:14] <Maka> The following packages have unmet dependencies:
[07:14] <Maka>  language-selector-qt : Depends: python-qt4 but it is not going to be installed
[07:14] <Maka> E: Broken packages
[07:14] <Maka> when i did sudo apt-get install --install-recommends language-selector-qt
[07:14] <Maka> isnt there a way to make it install these automatically ?
[07:14] <valorie> oh, I would just do sudo apt-get install language-selector-qt
[07:15] <valorie> maka, that is what should have happened
[07:15] <valorie> however, if you go through one by one
[07:15] <valorie> you can pinpoint the problem package
[07:15] <valorie> and perhaps we can do a work-around
[07:16] <valorie> perhaps you can try something else: sudo aptitude install --install-recommends kubuntu-desktop
[07:17] <valorie> if you don't have aptitude, sudo apt-get install aptitude
[07:35] <Guest83009> guys i just finished installing pc linux os on my pc i intended to dual boot it with ubuntu but i can no longer see the ubuntu entry in the grub menu how can i fix this
[07:36] <valorie> Ubuntu, or Kubuntu?
[07:36] <Guest83009> kubuntu
[07:36] <Guest83009> sorry about that
[07:36] <tsimpson|n800> !grub
[07:37] <tsimpson|n800> see the first link
[07:37] <Guest83009> alrite man thanks
[08:01] <Fref> hi
[08:02] <Fref> I humbly come to ask for help
[08:02] <Fref> I recently bought an Asus 1215 n
[08:02] <Fref> and tried to install Kubuntu 10.10 on it
[08:02] <Fref> from a usb stick
[08:02] <Fref> but the installer always crashes
[08:03] <Fref> after the disk is formatted
[08:03] <Fref> Unfortunately, right now, I have no logs
[08:03] <Fref> any kind of help is most welcome
[08:18] <urgen> I haven't tried any usb style
[08:26] <valorie> fref, perhaps you should try again with a different USB stick
[08:26] <valorie> some of them are just never going to be successful
[08:26] <valorie> flaws somewhere
[08:26] <Fref> thing is
[08:26] <Fref> I tried with the same stick
[08:27] <Fref> and installed ubuntu (not kubuntu) successfully
[08:27] <valorie> ok
[08:28] <valorie> well, I've successfully installed kubuntu from a usb stick
[08:28] <valorie> and of course from CDs
[08:29] <Fref> my issue with ubuntu is that it doesn' t show me the proprietary drivers for the wifi card when I boot from the installed partition although it shows them to me when I boot from the stick, which mean I can't get rid from gnome and install Kde on top of ubuntu
[08:29] <Fref> I'll try again with kubuntu from a different stick and post the logs if I can find them
[10:50] <doobd> hi people
[10:51] <doobd> i need some help on my broken kde in kubuntu, is there anyone who can help me please?
[10:51] <moetunes> depends on how it is broken...
[10:52] <doobd> hi moetunes thank you for reply
[10:52] <doobd> kde doesn't start automatically, it returns me to text mode console
[10:52] <moetunes> you should let the channel know what the issue is doobd :)
[10:53] <moetunes> k
[10:53] <doobd> a sec i'm writing
[10:54] <doobd> when i try startx, it shows the cyan-blue kde login background for a quick second, and then it goes in plain X with one messagebox only that says: "could not start kdeinit4 check your installation", and when i click ok it returns me to text mode
[10:54] <doobd> i think that it happend with the latest security fix update
[10:55] <moetunes> which kde version do you have?
[10:55] <doobd> when update was over, my fonts were kind of screwed up, then i tried starting GIMP and it would not start, nor the virtualbox, so i restarted and now i cannot even login to kde
[10:55] <doobd> i have kubuntu 10.04
[10:56] <moetunes> you haven't installed a later version of kde from a ppa or anything?
[10:56] <doobd> no
[10:57] <doobd> i haven't installed anything specific other than updates that it offered me
[10:57] <doobd> i tried  apt-get install --reinstall kubuntu-desktop but it didn't help
[10:57] <moetunes> seems strange then
[10:57] <doobd> yes :(
[10:58] <doobd> and i need to get it running so desperatly, so many things to do today and i'm stuck with a broken machine
[10:58] <doobd> is there anything i can try?
[10:58] <moetunes> tried   apt-get update && apt-get upgrade   ?
[10:58] <moetunes> or did that cause it?
[10:58] <magIRCien> PARAZITES
[10:59] <doobd> yes, tried that *after* the thing was broken
[10:59] <doobd> did not help
[10:59] <doobd> says 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed...
[10:59] <moetunes> kubutnu-desktop is just a meta package - try to reinstall kde
[11:00] <doobd> like apt-get install --reinstall kde  ?
[11:00] <moetunes> yep
[11:00] <doobd> says package kde has n0 instalation candidate
[11:00] <doobd> what is the kde package name
[11:01] <moetunes> I dunno offhand - apt-cache search kde
[11:01] <doobd> that lists arround 1000 packages
[11:02] <doobd> as far as i understand, i see no errors in /etc/logs/Xorg.0.log
[11:03] <doobd> strange thing (to me) is that when i type startx a blue login kde screen comes up for a second
[11:04] <doobd> btw startkde says "$DISPLAY is not set or cannot connect to X server."
[11:04] <moetunes> something got borked along the line somehow - I think the package is kde-full
[11:04] <doobd> when i export DISPLAY=:0.0, same thing
[11:04] <moetunes> !kde-full
[11:04] <doobd> yes it is : ) i'll try
[11:05] <doobd> ok doing --reistnall kde-full... i'll see how that goes. thank you so far
[11:05] <moetunes> luck :)
[11:05] <doobd> tnx
[11:07] <Bu|sN3Ss^MaN> \join bohra
[11:07] <jussi> Hrm, anyone know a good latex wysiwyg editor?
[11:08] <jussi> moetunes: kubuntu-desktop is probably a better bet in that circumstance ;)
[11:08] <moetunes> jussi:  that did nothing for him/her - it was tried
[11:09] <jussi> moetunes: ahh, I didnt read that far back
[11:09] <moetunes> :)
[11:13] <doobd> moetunes: should this reinstall affect my settings (override them with default ones)? i have compiz, custom fonts... will that be overriden?
[11:13] <moetunes> doobd:  I shouldn't think so
[11:13] <doobd> custom compiled alsa ...
[11:14] <moetunes> it is not something I have had to do tho - but I have faith :)
[11:14] <moetunes> it should just replace the kde libs etc
[11:17] <doobd> btw, one question... what is the difference between kubuntu 10.04 and 10.10? will my 10.04 eventually get updated to 10.10, or what should i do to enable it? is it advised to do so?
[11:17] <doobd> i suppose i have to add some repositories?
[11:18] <moetunes> there should be an option in kpackagekit to let you upgrade
[11:18] <doobd> aha, okay
[11:21] <doobd> update finished, but same thing happens :((( startx displays same "Cold not start kdeinit4. Check your installation message" again
[11:21] <doobd> is there any other idea i could try
[11:22] <doobd> is there some log i should examine?
[11:22] <moetunes> the X log maybe -   less /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[11:24] <doobd> there are no (EE) lines in the file
[11:25] <moetunes> is that the whole error? "Cold not start kdeinit4. Check your installation message" ?
[11:25] <doobd> yes
[11:26] <doobd> can you take a look at my Xorg.0.log? i uploaded it to http://doobd.com/kdeerror/
[11:26] <moetunes> k
[11:27] <moetunes> can you use a pastebin? - I don't want to download it
[11:27] <moetunes> !paste
[11:27] <jussi> doobd: if you like, you can try running: sudo nvidia-xconfig
[11:28] <jussi> that will reconfig your nivida card
[11:31] <doobd> pastebin is unresponsive to me... i uploaded the same file with txt extension so you can open it in your browser http://doobd.com/kdeerror/Xorg.0.log.txt
[11:32] <doobd> btw nvidia-xconfig did not help.... it created new xorg.conf but the same thing happens
[11:33] <jussi> here is a pastebin if you prefer: http://paste.ubuntu.com/532281/
[11:33] <doobd> jussi thank you
[11:33] <jussi> doobd: Im not sure then - bit frustrating Im sure
[11:33] <doobd> is there any other log thay you might find usefull to help me?
[11:34] <moetunes> that's a pretty short X log but it seems fine
[11:35] <doobd> yes, i see no errors there too
[11:35] <moetunes> maybe time to ask in #kde what that error means
[11:37] <fmerges> hi
[11:37] <fmerges> im getting this: python: /build/buildd/sip4-qt3-4.10.5/siplib/siplib.c:2600: sip_api_parse_result: Assertion `assign_helper != ((void *)0)' failed.  After updating from 10.4 to 10.10 any idea?
[11:40] <moetunes> doobd:  from here - https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=836055 - it seems the first line  in /usr/bin/startkde needs to be broken into 2 lines after   true
[11:41] <doobd> moetunes: THANK YOU that was the thing
[11:42] <doobd> how the hell did that happen
[11:42] <moetunes> dunno :)
[11:43] <doobd> funny thing is that i googled and found the link tyou pasted, but i havent carefully examined the startkde file so i couldn't find that line
[11:43] <doobd> but it was there
[11:44] <doobd> now few other things in kde are broken, but at leat i have the graphic interface
[11:44] <doobd> thank you once again for the support
[11:44] <moetunes> np :)
[11:53] <doobd> moetunes: can i ask one more question... now kde works on statkde (although some things are missing, like my emerald window decorations) but it doesn't start automatically, on reboot i have to log in to text mode and startx manually... how to fix that... btw kdm is running
[11:53] <doobd> sorry i ment to say "kde works on startx"
[11:55] <moetunes> doobd:  is there an entry for kde in the sessions on kdm?
[11:55] <doobd> hmm... i dunno, where should i look?
[11:58] <moetunes> there's a session button isn't there?
[11:59] <doobd> button? where? when i type startx ist starts kde without login prompt since i'm logged in text console
[12:00] <moetunes> I thought you were using kdm...
[12:02] <moetunes> you can put a line in .bash_profile like   [ `tty` = "/dev/tty1" ] && startx
[12:04] <doobd> ok thanks... i'll try... btw it seems now that i have some cairo related issues because emerald & firefox won't start with libcairo.so.2: and libxul.so: Undefined symbol FT_Library_SetLcdFilter
[12:04] <moetunes> doobd:  if kdm is running why do you have to login to text mode on reboot? - "btw kdm is running" does kdm not let you login?
[12:05] <doobd> i mean the service is runiing, but it still fails me back to textmode on reboot, but i can start kde with startx
[12:05] <moetunes> that shouldn't be happening
[12:06] <doobd> i know
[12:06] <doobd> that's why i'm here : )
[12:06] <moetunes> heh
[12:07] <moetunes> was it always like that or is this new - the kdm thing?
[12:08] <doobd> i used to boot directly into kde graphic login screen
[12:08] <doobd> suppose that;s kdm?
[12:09] <moetunes> yep
[12:14] <moetunes> doobd:  seems reinstalling libXft is a solution for the emerald/firefox issue
[12:15] <doobd> tnx i'll try
[12:18] <moetunes> something has gone seriously wrong with your update - corrupted download or bad writes to disk or something
[12:20] <doobd> hm yes it seems so... btw updating libxft2 did not help on libcairo (emerald & ffox) problem
[12:20] <doobd> how can i check my hard disk?
[12:20] <moetunes> hdparm is good for that
[12:21] <moetunes> !info hdparm
[12:21] <doobd> yes i have it... so many options, any advice on what shoud i run?
[12:21] <moetunes> I like the Archwiki - https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Hdparm
[12:22] <stuart__> can anyone recommend a wireless network adaptor that will work out of the box with Ubuntu 10.04 ?
[12:23] <doobd> hm... no diskcheck options on the link you  posted

[12:29] <doobd> smartctl -a /dev/sdb reports no errors on my hd
[12:30] <doobd> says Overal-health self-assessment test result: PASSED
[12:30] <doobd> how can i check the ext4 fs
[12:47] <doobd> moetunes: sorry for being boring... it seems that i have some libfreetype (version?) error... i tried reinstalling libfreetype6 with apt-get --reistall but it doesn't help. when i try to remove it it asks me to remove bunch of my gui programs, i don't want to do that. any suggestions?
[12:48] <moetunes> doobd:  apart from the reinstall trick none come to mind - I'll have a google
[12:48] <doobd> thank you
[12:49] <doobd> if that would hep, firefox and emerald are both reporting "symbol lookup error: /ust/lib/libcairo.so.2: undefined symbol: FT_Library_SetLcdFilter" and emerald
[12:50] <moetunes> undefined symbol error is it doobd ?
[12:50] <doobd> yes
[12:53] <moetunes> so reinstalling libXft didn't fix the undefined symbol: FT_Library_SetLcdFilter error? - and what is the libfreetype error?
[12:55] <roinux> hey somebody know if http://www.getdeb.net/updates/ubuntu/10.10/ is broke?
[12:55] <roinux> i can't download
[12:56] <roinux> or somebody know some web or download sotware ubuntu
[12:56] <doobd> btw... i had a custom (m$ pixel) fonts installed (following http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=208396) maybe that has something to do with it
[12:56] <moetunes> doobd:  it should be an issue now if it was working before
[12:57] <doobd> yes
[12:57] <doobd> but that's the first thing i noticed after the security fix upgrade... my fonts somhow became smaller and uglier
[12:59] <moetunes> not having much luck with google - apart from a "/usr/lib/libfontconfig.so.1: undefined symbol: FT_Select_Size" I can't find much that is useful
[12:59] <doobd> yes me too, googled it
[13:00] <moetunes> what was the font error?
[13:01] <doobd> there was no error, but the fonts of newly opened windows looked smaller
[13:01] <roinux> :O
[13:01] <roinux> i delete my panel ( where are my progrms)
[13:02] <roinux> how i recovery?
[13:02] <roinux> how can i recovery it?
[13:02] <moetunes> !panels
[13:02] <moetunes> ignore that
[13:08] <g4> Hi guys-I'm looking for someone here who works with programs like Bricscad, Solid Edge, Splan etc.
[13:10] <doobd> moetunes: this is /var/log/apt/history.log entry of the update that might have screwed the things up http://paste.ubuntu.com/532327/ - after that i noticed wierd fonts and some apps wouldn't start
[13:10] <doobd> it's mostly apache
[13:10] <moetunes> k
[13:10] <doobd> sorry mysql, i wanted to say
[13:11] <doobd> i even tried to downgrade libjpeg to prev version but it didn't help....
[13:14] <moetunes> I would think libxml2 could be the issue out of what you upgraded there
[13:15] <doobd> what would you suggest me to do?
[13:17] <doobd> i didn't manage to figure out how to downgrade it to previous ver (before update) because i don't get what is the version number from that file... it says 6b-14 only but apt-get install libxml2=6b-14 doesn't work (says no that version)
[13:17] <doobd> anyway i suppose that downgrade isn't realy a solution
[13:17] <doobd> i just wanted to return it to previous working state
[13:19] <moetunes> the version you have is a necessary fix - http://lwn.net/Articles/414953/
[13:20] <moetunes> try the reinstall trick for it maybe

[13:42] <BluesKaj> hiyas all
[14:10] <doobd> moetunes: still no progress on my FT_Library_SetLcdFilter problem... any ideas? sorry to bug but i don't know who to ask
[14:12] <BluesKaj> very interesting , if I use aptitude safe-upgrade , a new linux image is about to be installed, however if I use apt-get upgrade , the linux-image is held back ,... any explanation for the difference ?
[14:13] <BluesKaj> anyway here goes , mew image installed..rebooting
[14:24] <BluesKaj> success, aptitude installed the new kernel , whereas apt was holding it back
[15:09] <jmho> hi, how to setup a pppoe internet connection using alternate install cd?
[15:09] <jmho> the plasma widget does not seem to work
[15:35] <BluesKaj> jmho, perhaps the /etc/network/interface settings will work better than network manager , it's what i use . http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/setting-up-an-network-interfaces-file/
[15:41] <jmho> BluesKaj: will give it a try, thanks
[15:42] <jado> hello, i'm on kubuntu 10.10; why when i put the cursor on knetworkmanager i get "unmanaged"?
[15:43] <BluesKaj> jmho, this might also interest you : http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/howto-ubuntu-linux-convert-dhcp-network-configuration-to-static-ip-configuration.html
[15:46] <jado> i've also  got this error when trying to update/upgrade
[15:46] <jado> http://pastebin.ca/1992260
[15:48] <BluesKaj> jado, in the  terminal, sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart
[15:52] <jado> BluesKaj: it doesn't work, i've also tried rm /var/log/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.state
[15:52] <BluesKaj> jado, remove/disable the offending deb in the repos in your package manager or backup your /etc/apt/sources.list to renamed text file and delete the text in the original, then try this :http://techie-buzz.com/foss/generate-a-sources-list-with-the-ubuntu-sources-list-generator.html
[15:52] <jado> sorry got disconnected
[15:52] <jado> is there anything else to try?
[15:54] <BluesKaj> jado, don't remove /var/log/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.state , just  make sure all settings =true
[15:55] <BluesKaj> jado, remove/disable the offending deb in the repos in your package manager or backup your /etc/apt/sources.list to renamed text file and delete the text in the original, then try this :http://techie-buzz.com/foss/generate-a-sources-list-with-the-ubuntu-sources-list-generator.html
[15:56] <jado> actually i don't a have a NetworkManager folder anymore in /var/log :/
[15:57] <BluesKaj> jado, are you on an ethernet connection ?
[15:57] <jado> yes
[15:58] <BluesKaj> jado,, perhaps the /etc/network/interface settings will work better than network manager , it's what i use . http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/setting-up-an-network-interfaces-file/
[15:59] <jado> i want to use a manager for wifi purposes
[15:59] <jado> maybe i'll just go with wicd?
[15:59] <BluesKaj> jado, also http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/howto-ubuntu-linux-convert-dhcp-network-configuration-to-static-ip-configuration.html
[16:00] <BluesKaj> wicd is ok , bur why bother with another level when /etc/network/interfaces works so well and it's much faster
[16:01] <jado> i've never tried to connect by wifi with the konsole
[16:01] <jado> i also need to make adhoc networks
[16:01] <jado> that's why i want a gui
[16:02] <BluesKaj> jado, I asked if you were using ethernet, but your'e on wifi
[16:02] <BluesKaj> try wicd then
[16:03] <jado> i meant i'm on ethernet right now but  i will need wifi in the future
[16:07] <Scunizi> Arg.. every time I boot Amarok starts playing the last thing in que even if *there is nothing in the play list*.  How do I fix that? 10.04LTS version.
[16:09] <ubuntu> hello
[16:09] <BluesKaj> jado, firstly you need to create a text file in /var/log/ and name it NetworkManager/NetworkManager.state , then copy these lines to it.  http://paste.ubuntu.com/532413/
[16:11] <BluesKaj> Scunizi, check play options
[16:21] <Scunizi> BluesKaj: thanks I removed the checkmark on "Resume Playback on Start".  But why would it play anything at all with nothing in the playlist?  You'd figure once the list is cleared it would be silent.
[16:26] <BluesKaj> Scunizi, agreed , but I'm not sure why ..amarok is still kind of clunky IMO
[16:27] <Scunizi> BluesKaj: yea.. but for what I do it works fine.
[16:29] <BluesKaj> Scunizi, I hate to admit it but for once windows got it right on W7 with wmp
[16:31] <GeForce88> having trouble getting kde desktop to install on ubuntu 10.10
[16:31] <GeForce88> http://pastebin.ca/1992322
[16:31] <Scunizi> BluesKaj: I haven't experienced it.. still running ME here :)  .. no really.  Xp on all the desktops in the house (except mine). and ubuntu on the lappies.
[16:33] <BluesKaj> GeForce88, how did you install 10.10 ?
[16:33] <GeForce88> alternate install cd
[16:33] <GeForce88> not the gui version
[16:35] <BluesKaj> yes I'm familair with the alternate install version , but i never had probs with kubuntu desktop installing unless you installed ubuntu instead of kubuntu
[16:36] <GeForce88> i did install ubuntu 10.10 with gnome
[16:36] <GeForce88> like i always do
[16:36] <GeForce88> then i install kde
[16:36] <GeForce88> so i can swap back and forth
[16:37] <BluesKaj>  I do just the opposite , I install kubuntu then I add ubuntu-desktop afterwards
[16:41] <BluesKaj> GeForce88, could be something to do with kde 4.5 , maybe the kde ppas are in order:  sudo apt-add-repository ppa:kubuntu-ppa/backports && sudo apt-add-repository ppa:kubuntu-ppa
[16:41] <BluesKaj> then sudo aptitude update
[16:43] <GeForce88> ok
[16:43] <GeForce88> we'll try that
[16:44] <GeForce88> ...
[16:44] <GeForce88> same issues
[16:46] <GeForce88> mad dependancy isses
[16:47] <GeForce88> thanks for trying, off to work now.

[18:45] <howlymowly> hi poeple.. short question:  i created a guest-account on my computer..  now I would like to know whether it is possible to switch to a  certain user, using the commandline in a running KDE session?  this way I could add a simple one-click-button on the desktop to start a guest session...
[18:47] <BluesKaj> russia_bear, maybe #kubuntu-ru is a better chatroom for your needs
[18:48] <russia_bear> BluesKaj  yes man.... now I am there
[18:58] <progre55> hi guys. anyone had a problem connecting to icq from kopete? it says password incorrect, although I'm sure it is.
[19:13] <lieuwe> hey, is it possible to echo a block character in console, and if so, how?
[19:53] <pabloz> hi, is there any easy way in bash to get all the files in the current directory but a specific one? like "ls *" would get ALL files, I need all but, say, "trunk"
[19:53] <pabloz> files or directories, of course...
[19:54] <alvin> pabloz: ls | grep -v trunk
[19:55] <pabloz> hi alvin, thanks for your answer. If I need to send it to svn i need to use svn $(ls | grep -v trunk) ?
[19:56] <pabloz> yes (don't ask me why I did't try before asking... I'm burned)
[19:56] <alvin> pabloz: No idea about that. I don't have svn. It might work.
[19:58] <Pici> I'd use find if you're going to use the output of the command as an argument for another one.
[19:58] <pabloz> actually I needed to move those files inside trunk (which was a sibling) so what I did was $ mv $(ls | grep -v trunk) trunk
[19:59] <Pici> That will work unless you have a file with spaces, then it breaks.
[19:59] <pabloz> ah
[19:59] <pabloz> thanks Pici
[19:59] <pabloz> (worked in my case)
[20:42] <russia_bear> АЛООО

[23:11] <moetunes> yep you use ndiswrapper to use the windows driver
[23:11] <lonewulf> Ok i cant find it maybe i need to restart.
[23:11] <moetunes> it is   ndiswrapper -i /path/to/file.inf

[23:33] <aicram> Hello. I just installed kxstudio and I cannot figure out how to stop the display from suspending. I have gone to settings and the power manager however nothing I do changes anything. I believe this will be similar to kubuntu methods. I have already tried kxstudio irc, no one responded. Thank you.
[23:34] <aicram> This is a quad core desktop not a laptop. Thank you.
[23:35] <moetunes> it might the graphics dpms option - check the X log to see if it is enbled
[23:35] <Toast> I tried to enable groupware support in kontact, but now kontact is constantly crashing and I can't start kmail. Is there a config file I can hand edit or delete?
