[00:00] <phoenix_firebrd> moetunes: its amazing
[00:02] <poyntz> phoenix_firebrd: nothing changed :S
[00:03] <phoenix_firebrd> poyntz: you are seeing the text bootscreen ?
[00:04] <poyntz> phoenix_firebrd: dont thing so
[00:04] <poyntz> *think
[00:04] <phoenix_firebrd> poyntz: i am not getting what you mean
[00:04] <moetunes> phoenix_firebrd:  that looks sweet
[00:05] <poyntz> phoenix_firebrd: didn't notice any changes to the bootscreen
[00:05] <phoenix_firebrd> moetunes: ya
[00:05] <poyntz> phoenix_firebrd: but i'm not using the default boot screen either..
[00:05] <phoenix_firebrd> poyntz: the name "kubuntu 10.10" is in plain text right?
[00:07] <phoenix_firebrd> poyntz: are you able to see this image while booting ?http://lh5.ggpht.com/_1QSDkzYY2vc/S674wo8YvxI/AAAAAAAAArw/rhBkbvUSMWo/plasma-desktopfs1523-jpg.jpg
[00:08] <phoenix_firebrd> poyntz: are you there?
[00:23] <webinator> does anybody know how to set up swat
[00:24] <phoenix_firebrd> webinator: game?
[00:25] <webinator> samba
[00:25] <phoenix_firebrd> webinator: noidea
[00:25] <dee> dj
[00:25] <dee> goa
[00:26] <dee> gah*
[00:26] <webinator> i have a book on ubuntu and i dont have all the options that the book has a the swat server
[00:27] <moetunes> !info swat
[00:27] <moetunes> !swat
[00:27] <moetunes> webinator:  some reading ^^
[00:29] <Roxy_> is someone in this channel  named djustice? im not able to see it i think...
[00:31] <moetunes> nope it seems not
[00:34] <muimota_> Hi! just upgraded to 10.10 on my amd m3a78-vm
[00:34] <muimota_> it didn't upgrade well, now it doesn't even boot
[00:35] <muimota_> but the worst thing is that the ether has dissapeared
[00:35] <muimota_> even in slax or windows xp
[00:35] <muimota_> how is this possible? is it possible to fix?
[00:36] <Roxy_> moetunes:  thanks :( i was hoping he was..i did something rly childish toward him :( on my stupidty. feel rly bad and i was wanting to let him know i was sorry >.<
[00:36] <moetunes> muimota_:  afaik that could only be possible if the hardware failed
[00:37] <moetunes> Roxy_:  to find if someone is here type the first three letters of their nick and hit the tab button
[00:37] <muimota_> I know is really hard to believe that upgrading broke the hardware
[00:37] <moetunes> and try later so you can apologise if you need to
[00:37] <moetunes> muimota_:  it was probably just a timing coincidence
[00:38] <muimota_> moetunes: but I can assure before the upgrade the ethernet worked perfect,(I updated from kubuntu 10.04)
[00:39] <moetunes> muimota_:  software can't break hardware in other os's
[00:39] <muimota_> now I don't have the computer right here but I guess I should try to lspci to find out my card
[00:40] <poyntz> phoenix_firebrd: ahh.. so all it would change is that login screen..
[00:40] <muimota_> moetunes: I know , it sounds quite strange I was wondering if there is a chance kubuntu mixed my motherboards BIOS or something weird like that
[00:40] <phoenix_firebrd> poyntz: ya
[00:40] <poyntz> phoenix_firebrd: naa.. it's ok. it probably would work, i just changed the login screen
[00:40] <phoenix_firebrd> moetunes: hi
[00:41] <phoenix_firebrd> muimota_: hi
[00:41] <poyntz> phoenix_firebrd: do you know how to change icons on the panel?
[00:41] <poyntz> for quicklaunch apps
[00:41] <phoenix_firebrd> muimota_: i had the same problem , i solved it
[00:42] <moetunes> muimota_:  nope - nothing in linux will touch the bios - you could maybe check in the bios to see if the nic is still recognised
[00:42] <poyntz> i used to be able to right click and change it directly, but 10.10 won't let me do that
[00:42] <moetunes> or listen to phoenix_firebrd
[00:42] <moetunes> :)
[00:42] <phoenix_firebrd> :)
[00:42] <muimota_> phoenix_firebrd: could you please help me ?
[00:42] <kyubutsu> tried installing kde4.5.3 [using ppa:kubuntu-ppa] .. failed twice.  gave up.
[00:43] <phoenix_firebrd> muimota_: you dont see anything after you login in to your kubuntu 10.10 after the upgrade?
[00:43] <muimota_> the system doesn't even boot on 10.10
[00:44] <phoenix_firebrd> muimota_: can you see the grub menu?
[00:44] <muimota_> yes
[00:44] <muimota_> phoenix_firebrd: even on recovery mode it doesnt boot
[00:44] <phoenix_firebrd> muimota_: did you try booting in the recovery mode
[00:44] <phoenix_firebrd> muimota_: ok
[00:45] <muimota_> phoenix_firebrd: I can boot windows XP and slax
[00:45] <phoenix_firebrd> muimota_: do you get any error messages?
[00:45] <muimota_> phoenix_firebrd: as I said before roght now I don't have that computer here
[00:45] <muimota_> phoenix_firebrd: the computer restarted , no I didn't have any error messages
[00:46] <phoenix_firebrd> muimota_: did you see the kubuntu bootsplash screen?
[00:46] <muimota_> phoenix_firebrd: nop
[00:46] <muimota_> phoenix_firebrd: nothing after grub
[00:46] <muimota_> :(
[00:46] <phoenix_firebrd> muimota_: do you have a livecd ?
[00:46] <muimota_> phoenix_firebrd: selecting any linux choices in grub it restartes
[00:47] <muimota_> phoenix_firebrd: yes, slax
[00:47] <phoenix_firebrd> muimota_: does that support your filesystem?
[00:48] <muimota_> kubuntu was installed with wubi , so the filsystem is inside NTFS
[00:48] <muimota_> and yes I was able to check it using a windows etx reader
[00:48] <phoenix_firebrd> muimota_: ok
[00:49] <Roxy_> moetunes:  i know about that... it just i think he ignored me because of my childish and out of line thing i did....
[00:50] <Roxy_> ok i need some help or something.... my kamoso when i record a vid and i do a play back on vlc...it plays in fast mode and no sound... is there a way to fix that or something or another... yes i am a noob. >.<
[00:50] <moetunes> Roxy_:  we all make mistakes - check in at the same time you last talked to him - I'm sure it will be fixable :)
[00:50] <phoenix_firebrd> muimota_: boot using it, mount the /boot, paste the grub.cfg
[00:51] <phoenix_firebrd> here
[00:51] <moetunes> !paste
[00:51] <phoenix_firebrd> thats what i meant
[00:51] <muimota_> phoenix_firebrd: ok
[00:52] <muimota_> phoenix_firebrd: tomorrow
[00:52] <muimota_> phoenix_firebrd: the computer is at the office
[00:52] <phoenix_firebrd> muimota_: last question
[00:53] <phoenix_firebrd> muimota_: do you see any disk activity after selecting from grub mennu?
[00:54] <muimota_> phoenix_firebrd: yes , it takes arounf 5-10 seconds to restart since I select the OS in grub
[00:54] <muimota_> phoenix_firebrd: thank you see you tomorow
[00:55] <phoenix_firebrd> muimota_:see you
[00:56] <phoenix_firebrd> poyntz: are you talking about the bootscreen or the login screen?
[01:02] <phoenix_firebrd> poyntz: the default bootsplash in kubuntu 10.10 is text based or the graphical one is disabled.you can use the graphics bootsplash by editing the grub configuration using the app "startup-manager" . select the option "show boot splash"
[01:02] <phoenix_firebrd> in that app
[01:19] <cuznt> i have an old dell system. running ubuntu server. gonna be a file server only, it is on a 40 gig hd/ with my flac music collection on a 500gb hd. which is listed under media. Media does not auto boot its contents, and I want that to boot up with the system
[01:20] <Pici> i/22
[01:22] <moetunes> cuznt:  have you put an entry for it in /etc/fstab?
[01:22] <moetunes> !fstab
[01:24] <phoenix_firebrd> moetunes: ntfg-config?
[01:24] <phoenix_firebrd> moetunes: ntfs-config?
[01:25] <moetunes> phoenix_firebrd:  what about it - I don't have anything ntfs and never have :)
[01:25] <phoenix_firebrd> moetunes: sorry wrong question
[01:26] <moetunes> :) sweet
[01:26] <phoenix_firebrd> cuznt:what is the filesystem?
[01:36] <cuznt> ummm sorry was reading
[01:36] <cuznt> edited fstab.
[01:37] <cuznt> my dumbness beat me though
[01:37] <cuznt> mount point would be /dev/sdb1 correct?
[01:37] <moetunes> nope
[01:38] <cuznt> !
[01:38] <cuznt> that is where it is
[01:38] <moetunes> you make a dir in /media or /mnt for it
[01:38] <moetunes> you mount /dev/sdb1 in a dir
[01:38] <moetunes> that you make
[01:38] <cuznt> . /media/music
[01:38] <cuznt> - the .
[01:38] <moetunes> mountpoint is the dir you make
[01:39] <cuznt> so i did do it correctly but it said it did not exist
[01:39] <moetunes> did you make the dir first?
[01:39] <moetunes> mkdir -v /media/something
[01:40] <cuznt> it is a premade 500g flac hog
[01:40] <moetunes> no dude the dir you are mounting /dev/sdb1 to
[01:40] <cuznt> full of music and shns and stuff., i want it in my boot up so i do not have to mount
[01:40] <cuznt> thats it
[01:41] <cuznt> stand by
[01:41] <cuznt> had to reboot the server
[01:42] <moetunes> you can do   sudo mount -av   instead of rebooting
[01:42] <cuznt> blkid
[01:43] <cuznt> " TYPE+"vfat"
[01:43] <cuznt> crap
[01:44] <cuznt> sudo blkid = /dev/sdb1: LABEL="MUSIC" UUID="B205-6477" TYPE="vfat"
[01:44] <moetunes> vfat = fat32 mostly
[01:45] <moetunes> vfat is the linux name for it
[01:45] <cuznt> i dig that.
[01:45] <cuznt> but that it the drive i wish to mount auTo matically
[01:46] <moetunes> you can do that
[01:46] <cuznt> so my entry into fstab at the bottom = and wait it will take 6 years to type it in
[01:47] <moetunes> I don't understand that at all - what do you mean?
[01:47] <cuznt> UUID+B205-6477 /Media?Music     vfat     user    0    0
[01:47] <cuznt> ooops
[01:48] <cuznt> my fstab entry is ~~~>    UUID=B205-6477 /Media?Music     vfat     user    0    0
[01:48] <cuznt> -? =/
[01:48] <cuznt> so the question mark is a slash i mistyped
[01:50] <moetunes> I think it should be Media\ Music - with a space after the slash if there is one in the file name
[01:52] <moetunes> cuznt:  sorry I misread what you are doing - did you mean there is a dir called Music in the system dir /media?
[01:53] <moetunes> no capital M in /media if that is the case
[01:53] <cuznt> yes
[01:54] <moetunes> so it is /media/Music then?
[01:54] <cuznt> i made a small m and now instead of rebooting i can sudo mount -av ?
[01:54] <moetunes> yep
[01:55] <moetunes> the a in -av is for all and the v is for verbose so you know what happens
[01:55] <cuznt> and /media/MUSIC does not exist
[01:55] <moetunes> what does   ls /media   return?
[01:56] <cuznt> cdrom shares
[01:56] <cuznt> which is really /media/MUSIC/shares
[01:58] <moetunes> evidently not...
[01:58] <moetunes> ls can't lie :)
[02:01] <cuznt> nope shares is something else
[02:02] <cuznt> so forget that
[02:02] <cuznt> music would not mount
[02:03] <moetunes> it doesn't exist from what ls said
[02:04] <cuznt> nope it hath dissappeared kiond of
[02:04] <cuznt> kind of
[02:04] <cuznt> it shows up in blkid
[02:04] <moetunes> sudo mkdir -v /media/MUSIC   then
[02:06] <cuznt> ok it came back
[02:07] <cuznt> what does the -v do?
[02:07] <cuznt>  now it shows the location as /media/MUSIC-1/
[02:08] <moetunes> the -v is for verbose - just gives more output on what's going on
[02:09] <moetunes> I don't know why there's a 1 in there...
[02:09] <cuznt> i do not either
[02:11] <cuznt> and now ls /media gets cdrom  music music-1 and shares
[02:11] <cuznt> :p
[02:14] <moetunes> heh - you do know everything in linux is case sensitive?
[02:14] <moetunes> music is diff to Music is diff to MUSIC
[02:15] <cuznt> all musics = MUSIC
[02:15] <cuznt> i am aware of being specific
[02:16] <moetunes> k
[02:20] <cuznt_> UUID=B205-6477	/media/MUSIC	vfat	user	0	0         <~~~so this was my fstab entry to get back to the originL query.
[02:21] <cuznt_> which is obviously incorrect
[02:21]  * cuznt_ does not believe in jeebus
[02:22] <jesus_> que es esto?? entre sin saber
[02:25] <moetunes> !es
[02:32] <Roxy_> does anyone know why everytime i get a torrent to download the status says stalled on every torrent i try to DL?
[02:34] <Roxy_> nvm
[02:35] <poyntz> anyway to fix up akonadi in 10.10?
[02:45] <administrator_> Hi
[02:46] <administrator_> .
[03:17] <kubuntumonkey> I just figured out an issue with multiple monitors
[03:20] <kb3ien_> what are we doing for qos these days? I just upped my home connection to 25Mbps, and backuppc is killing the clients cablemodems.
[03:20] <kb3ien_> i'm liking the idea of using tc but is there a standard place to keep tc commands in Maverik?
[03:25] <kubuntumonkey> Anyone interested in a discussion on Multiple monitor conf?
[03:26] <kb3ien_> anyone got a spare monitor to give me :p -- sorry not tonight.
[04:22] <smartasdan> #ubuntu
[05:48] <noaXess> good morning...
[05:58] <Roxy_> just wanna know if anyone knows a good website where i can just get the music off of youtube..just the music not the vid?
[06:21] <hellnest> morning
[09:33] <noaXess> have an error on /var/lib/dpkg/available.. http://paste.ubuntu.com/533402/
[09:33] <noaXess> any idea/hint how to fix that.. or recreate that file?
[09:36] <amichair> noaXess: guessing - back it up and create an empty one instead
[09:37] <noaXess> amichair: tried that.. so i need to create an empty file.. to just move the current?
[09:37] <amichair> noaXess: there's actually a "dpkg --clear-avail" command, might do the same thing
[09:37] <amichair> moving the current is just for backup so you can undo any further damage :-)
[09:37] <noaXess> amichair: ok.. will test that
[09:37] <noaXess> yeah.. ;)
[09:39] <noaXess> amichair: now it's empty.. so.. what do now to refill it?
[09:40] <amichair> maybe apt-get update?
[09:40] <amichair> noaXess: as you can tell, i'm just guessing here, I dont really know :-)
[09:40] <noaXess> ok..
[09:45] <amichair> was it recreated?
[09:47] <Fleck> 10.10 - each time i login bunch of krusaders open up, even if i close them all before shutdown/restart/logout
[09:48] <Fleck> and master volume is allways muted when i login
[09:48] <moetunes> are you using a new session at login?
[09:48] <Fleck> no, using last session
[09:57] <Fleck> moetunes and krusaders are openeded more and more
[09:58] <Fleck> at begining was only one krusader
[09:58] <Fleck> now i have 4
[09:59] <moetunes> any mention of it in the autostart apps and why not try a new session ?
[10:00] <Fleck> i have i new session on other PC
[10:00] <Fleck> still kmix is muted though no krusader problem
[10:00] <grizmawe> I am using kubuntu maverick but the network settings config does not show my eth0 adapter. daemons.log shows that NetworkManager sucessfully activiated the NIC but still does not show. - link is working and network access is fine but I cannot find the NIC to alter settings...
[10:01] <Fleck> grizmawe i think ifupdown problem?
[10:02] <Fleck> remove all eth0 from /etc/network/interfaces ?
[10:02] <moetunes> the network manager has been giving a few ppl hassles
[10:02] <Fleck> even auto eth0
[10:02] <moetunes> wicd is a good alternative apparently
[10:02] <Fleck> every line that says eth0 ;)
[10:03] <Fleck> dunno, network manager works great here and i love the new gui ;)
[10:03] <Fleck> nice one!
[10:03] <grizmawe> will try - bbiab
[10:05] <grizmawe> Fleck: /etc/network/interfaces only contains refrences to loopback. no mention of eth0
[10:06] <Fleck> hmm
[10:06] <Fleck> sec
[10:07] <grizmawe> the widget shows eth0 when you click on it and says it is connected. but when you click manage connections the wired tab is blank
[10:07] <Fleck> what says this config: /var/lib/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.state
[10:07] <Fleck> ?
[10:08] <grizmawe> Fleck: Networking, wireless and WWAN all enabled
[10:08] <Fleck> sounds good
[10:15] <grizmawe> Fleck: Picture explains better - here is the applet showing that Network manager is handling the NIC fine: http://imagepaste.nullnetwork.net/viewimage.php?id=1456
[10:15] <Fleck> yes
[10:15] <Fleck> so whats the problem?
[10:15] <grizmawe> Fleck: but the connection settings is blank: http://imagepaste.nullnetwork.net/viewimage.php?id=1457
[10:16] <Fleck> well its auto
[10:16] <Fleck> click on manage connections
[10:16] <Fleck> and add wired connections as u need
[10:17] <grizmawe> Fleck: should et0 not show in the wired section automatically so you can edit its settings - I want to override search domain that is provided by DHCP.
[10:19] <Fleck> grizmawe add new wired config, tick connect automaticaly and be happy! :)
[10:20] <Fleck> should work
[10:21] <grizmawe> It is done and works but not intuitive. Existing interfaces detected during boot should always show by default - my opinion only....
[10:22] <Fleck> sorry i dont understand you, perhaps my english is not good enough
[10:23] <grizmawe> Fleck: I appologise I mean it is not obvious or easy to know that you need to add a new wired device setting for a NIC that already exists....
[10:23] <Fleck> why not? u do so in windows too
[10:24] <Fleck> cause each interface windows knows - is set up to get settings from dhcp
[10:24] <Fleck> same story here and thats good
[10:24] <Fleck> if you need static ip, or other settings - u add custom
[10:24] <Fleck> whats wrong with that?
[10:25] <Fleck> or again, i dont get u correct? ;)
[10:25] <grizmawe> Fleck: In windows the network connection is already there and you just need to alter its properties. In KDE the wired section is blank until you add a new connection to an existing eth0. Besides I am not coming from windows but from Gnome :P
[10:26] <Fleck> whats the difference, even better, for example laptops and wired networks, at work i have to use static IP, there is no DHCP, at home i have other IP subnet, so other settings needed
[10:26] <Fleck> with windows its nightmare
[10:26] <Fleck> i have to change each time IP to dhcp and vice versa
[10:26] <Fleck> with KDE - i add 2 configs
[10:26] <Fleck> so easy and cool!
[10:27] <Fleck> not just wired
[10:27] <grizmawe> Fleck: I agree but I think eth0 should be there ready to be edited
[10:27] <Fleck> well dunno... :) i dont see the difference anyways
[10:28] <grizmawe> Fleck: you should not need to add a new config to something that network manager is already managing
[10:28] <Fleck> whats the difference click on NEW/ADD button or EDIT button?
[10:28] <Fleck> grizmawe well i agree but thats not a big deal i think! :)
[10:29] <Fleck> now i got your point! :)
[10:29] <grizmawe> Fleck: agreed, not a big deal but usability is all about the little details :D
[10:29] <Fleck> but then again - u will need to create auto ...
[10:29] <Fleck> cause u modified default one...
[10:30] <grizmawe> Fleck:  It works well when you know. Many thanks! - Time to look around KDE. First time using it since about 1998!
[10:31] <Fleck> grizmawe good luck! :) i like KDE ;))
[12:06] <roland> is it possible to get 3D effects working on a Kubuntu10.10 intsall inside vmware?
[12:08] <bazhang> roland, not sure, probably contact vmware and find out; there is also #vbox for virtualbox
[14:32] <rportal> hola aladinha
[14:32] <BluesKaj> hiyas
[15:10] <dmoyne> hello who knows how to set nfs + autofs on client ; I have problems with permission to write in direcories tant I ca view on client
[15:16] <noaXess> firefox won't open flash exaclty... it want open it with firefox built in faudio/video.. how can i reconfigure that, that flash works.. like youtube?
[15:17] <BluesKaj> noaXess, have you installed kubuntu-restricted-extras
[15:18] <dmoyne> noaXess, are you 64 bits
[15:18] <noaXess> yes.. but it worked.. any update has make that unwork..
[15:19] <noaXess> oh i see that gnash is activated in firefox..
[15:20] <dmoyne> nfs who knows ?
[15:22] <noaXess> how to reove the gnash swf plugin from firefox?
[15:23] <dmoyne>  noaXess,  rfemove it with synaptic
[15:23] <noaXess> but i want only remove the plugin from firefox.. not the whole gnash swf player..
[15:23] <dmoyne> noaXess,  at least you see if now it works without
[15:24] <BluesKaj> noaXess, find the plugin in the package manager and remove it ,. not the player
[15:24] <dmoyne> anybody that has installed nfs  + autofs on client
[15:25] <noaXess> BluesKaj: hey...
[15:25] <dasKreech> !nfs
[15:25] <noaXess> BluesKaj: a sudo dpkg -l | gep gnash gives me just gnash
[15:25] <noaXess> the gnash package
[15:26] <dmoyne> ubottu, thanks I will check
[15:26] <BluesKaj> dunno why you use gnash, it's been unstable for ages
[15:26] <noaXess> found it.. mozilla-plugin-gnash
[15:28] <BluesKaj> noaXess, gnash isn't required on kubuntu , it''s gnome app , just rtemove it and reinstall kubuntu-restricted-extras abd yse mplayer or dragon player for video
[15:28] <noaXess> ok
[15:29] <noaXess> BluesKaj: how to set flashplugin to default?
[15:35] <dasKreech> BluesKaj: it is supposed to be stable now
[15:37] <BluesKaj> dasKreech, well, we should use kde apps , don't undestand the attraction to gnash anyway , it's redundant
[15:37] <dasKreech> BluesKaj: so is Linux
[15:37] <BluesKaj> ?
[15:39] <noaXess> BluesKaj: got it.. swfdec was alo installed on that machine..
[15:40] <dasKreech> BluesKaj: as well as basically all of the GNU toolset
[15:41] <BluesKaj> noaXess, the flashplugin-installer is best on kubuntu in my experience , make sure you have that
[15:42] <noaXess> BluesKaj: on my machine no problem.. was on a customer machine... gnash and swfdec was installed.. in any case.. don't know why..
[15:44] <BluesKaj> probly a left over from a gnome install that was replaced with kubuntu-desktop, a couple of yrs ago kde was having flash probs so ppl were installing gnash
[15:45] <BluesKaj> either one of those scenarios could explain it
[15:51] <mollitz> Hi. I'm having a Multitouch-Enabled monitor. When running in Gnome it works perfectly. In KDE touch does NOT work. How do I enable it in KDE? (I saw nice videos about gestures on Plasma)
[17:51] <napier> hi, How I can activate the process kills in  kubuntu desktop?
[17:55] <dasKreech> napier: the process kills?
[17:55] <dasKreech> You mean the task manager?
[17:56] <napier> daskreeck, yes, How I can activate the process kill in kubuntu desktop?
[17:57] <dasKreech> napier: you can press alt+F2 and click on the box to the right of the wrench or you can press Ctrl+Esc which is faster :)
[18:02] <napier> daskreeck, i want to install a process kill like i have in the bar of gnome
[18:02] <napier> but for kubuntu
[18:45] <eric123> hello
[18:48] <chuckf> hi
[18:49] <eric123> This is the first time I have used IRC, just seeing how it works
[18:50] <chuckf> welcome to the channel
[18:52] <ivan_> Hi guys! I occasionly closed the lower panel. How do I restore it with default settings?
[18:52] <BluesKaj> eric123, quassel is somewhat different than most irc clients , but from all reports it works quite well . I prefer konversation myself
[18:53] <eric123> Cool, I will give konversation a try
[18:53] <dasKreech> eric123: welcome
[18:54] <dasKreech> ivan_: right click on the background -> add panel
[19:05] <Phoenixz> How can I see what brand / model is the touchpad of my laptop?
[19:05] <Phoenixz> The touchpad is working, but not correctly. (using kubuntu), KDE system settings is telling me the driver for the touchpad is not installed, how can I install it?
[19:08] <BluesKaj> Phoenixz, look in the kmenu/apps/system/additional hardware foir starters , or do search for touchpad drivers for you make and model laptop on google-linux
[19:10] <BluesKaj> Phoenixz, err , kmenu/apps/system/additional drivers
[19:17] <sresu> Logout process doens't initiate. ps aux - http://pastebin.com/jcjxjQrs. ~/.xsession-errors - http://pastebin.com/wbLnykjU Clicking on logout only stops display manager and moves to tty where it should be killing process and exiting. Instead it only stays leaving the system on the black screen. How can I fix this logout problem?
[19:18] <BluesKaj> sresu, are you logging in at a tty ...I have to ask
[19:18] <sresu> BluesKaj: No
[19:19] <sresu> Normal login
[19:19] <sresu> BluesKaj:  wherein usual kdm starts w/o Desktop effects
[19:20] <BluesKaj> so you're logging in with kde / kdm
[19:20] <sresu> BluesKaj: tty becomes an option to go back to another user account Like when the logout process hangs, I press Ctrl+Alt+F1 and login to same user or another to continue my work
[19:21] <sresu> BluesKaj: The moment system starts, it asks for username and password. This is how I normally login
[19:22] <BluesKaj> a tty is always in service unless you logout as that user , hence the logout to the tty when you want to quit
[19:22] <sresu> Yes, I do that
[19:23] <sresu> Lately I have to use tty since the logout probably doesn't complete or initiates
[19:23] <sresu> BluesKaj: Was ps aux of any help?
[19:24] <BluesKaj> sresu, ps aux ?
[19:25] <sresu> BluesKaj:  http://pastebin.com/jcjxjQrs
[19:25] <sresu> BluesKaj: and ~/.xsession-errors - http://pastebin.com/wbLnykjU
[19:25] <BluesKaj> i don't understand why you are root
[19:25] <sresu> Where?
[19:26] <sresu> Scroll down you will find my account  name
[19:26] <BluesKaj> http://pastebin.com/jcjxjQrs
[19:26] <sresu> Yes, I get that. My account is the one mentioned in the end
[19:27] <BluesKaj> never seen root like that before
[19:27] <sresu> Moreover, if you check your uptime <uptime>, it will say 1 extra user which is always root
[19:27] <sresu> BluesKaj: Try <uptime>
[19:28] <BluesKaj> ok, no other users here , so...
[19:28] <sresu> BluesKaj: Moreover, in System Activity (Ctrl+Tab+Esc) would display root as well
[19:29] <BluesKaj> sresu, but why do that , it can be dangerous
[19:30] <sresu> BluesKaj: I'm only confirming that it usually active as well. You can easily try System activity or <top> to find that
[19:32] <moetunes> root will show in top due to processes being started during the boot  - there should be no root user showing in uptimunless you do su -i or something
[19:32] <sresu> BluesKaj: Do you know where is kdm.conf file stored? Does it include kdm.conf file?
[19:32] <sresu> moetunes: I use sudo at times to open kate using CLI to do codong
[19:32] <sresu> coding
[19:33] <sresu> BluesKaj: Sorry, does it include AlwaysRestartServer ?
[19:33] <moetunes> sudo wont add a user named root
[19:34] <sresu> moetunes: Then I cannot say why that's the case with me.
[19:34] <sresu> moetunes: What do you suggest?
[19:34] <moetunes> seems strange tho
[19:35] <DiogenesW> servus
[19:35] <sresu> Got it! /etc/kde3/kdm/kdmrc
[19:35] <moetunes> sresu:  check at next boot to see if it exists again maybe - or check for rootkits
[19:36] <sonne> hi everyone
[19:36] <sresu> moetunes: I find two other username in top like avahi, daemon, haldaemon. kdm, messagebus,privoxy,rtkit,statd,syslog
[19:37] <sresu> many*
[19:37] <moetunes> sresu:  they aren't users
[19:37] <sresu> Then same goes for root
[19:37] <moetunes> :)
[19:37] <sresu> What?
[19:38] <sresu> My account name is highlighted though rest aren't
[19:39] <moetunes> sresu:  in konsole run   who   it will show who is logged in
[19:39] <sresu> moetunes: hsr
[19:39] <sresu> My account name
[19:40] <sonne> i have two folders with identical subfolder structure, but different files at the lowest level and i want to combine these two folders. Is there a easy way to do this wis a cp commandline?
[19:40] <sresu> moetunes: ps gave the details of current processes in the link provided
[19:42] <sresu> moetunes: What do you suggest then?
[19:44] <moetunes> sresu:  it seems you are chasing ghosts - relax about it

[20:01] <thd_> evening ... anyone know how to enable a service ? I'm trying #update-rc.d -f nfs-kernel-server defaults
[20:02] <thd_> but it complains with #insserv: warning: current start runlevel(s) (empty) of script `nfs-kernel-server' overwrites defaults (2 3 4 5).
[20:04] <moetunes> is nfs-kernel-server installed
[20:04] <thd_> yes :) I can start it manually with the init script
[20:05] <thd_> I even tried to symlink it directly into rc2, but it did not start on boot
[20:06] <moetunes> sounds like somethings not working right - a workaround is to add a line in rc.local
[20:07] <thd_> ok, will try rc.local, but wouldl love to know why it is failing
[20:12] <moetunes> no idea sorry
[20:14] <dasKreech> !upstart
[20:14] <dasKreech> thd_: ^^^ and #upstart may help
[20:15] <thd_> ok, reading upstart
[20:20] <dany_> hi all
[20:20] <dany_> I'm trying to compile a old version of a library ( I need it) and I get this error:

[20:20] <FloodBotK1> dany_: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[20:20] <PhilRod_> haha floodbots flooding
[20:23] <dany_> no one?
[20:26] <dasKreech> do you have a raw1394_set_iso_handler lib ?
[20:26] <DiogenesW> gute nacht
[20:30] <dany_> dasKreech:  what do you mean with set iso handler lib? anyway I have installed a raw1394 library with apt-get
[20:31] <dany_> I was thinking 2 things: or the raw1394 lib that I have is too new and some function name is different or that
[20:31] <dasKreech> would probably go with the latter
[20:32] <dany_> libdc doesn't see the raw library
[20:32] <dany_> and in this case I have to link it in some way.. right?
[20:32] <dasKreech> dany_: You can probably ask in #ubuntu-kernel
[20:32] <dany_> dasKreech:  ok thanks

[20:46] <phoenix_firebrd> i enabled the kubuntu ppa and updated my system. now the weather widget is not absent.
[20:47] <phoenix_firebrd> sorry the weather widget is absent . how can i get it back
[20:52] <dasKreech> phoenix_firebrd: add widgets -> search for weather?
[20:52] <dasKreech> phoenix_firebrd: oh wait hmm did you install the plasmoids package?
[20:53] <phoenix_firebrd> dasKreech: you mean seperately?
[20:55] <phoenix_firebrd> dasKreech: i enabled the ppa and updated. during the update i had to remove the weather widget due to dependency issue. after the update i am not able to find it in the widgets list
[20:55] <dasKreech> phoenix_firebrd: ah did you try reinstall it?
[20:56] <phoenix_firebrd> dasKreech: i tried to find using the kpackagekit and from web sources, i am not able to find it. can you tell me the exact package name

[21:21] <phoenix_firebrd> dasKreech: installing plasma-addons did it
[21:24] <phoenix_firebrd> apparle: are you there?
[21:24] <apparle> yes
[21:25] <apparle> phoenix_firebrd: ?
[21:25] <phoenix_firebrd> apparle: approx. 4 days back we were talking about a problem in my bluetooth, i found the problem now
[21:25] <apparle> phoenix_firebrd: fireaway
[21:25] <phoenix_firebrd> apparle: its the problem in the driver, that is the kernel
[21:26] <apparle> phoenix_firebrd: so did you find a patch or something for it?
[21:27] <apparle> phoenix_firebrd: any idea on how to fix it?
[21:27] <phoenix_firebrd> apparle: i used another bluetooth dongle it worked perfectly, but the that didnt work perfectly is not yet fully supported in the currect kernel.
[21:28] <phoenix_firebrd> but the default one didnt work perfectly is not yet fully supported in the currect kernel.
[21:28] <apparle> phoenix_firebrd: did you find anyone with same problem or a bug etc ?
[21:29] <phoenix_firebrd> apparle: i tried the kubuntu 11.04 today, which uses kernel 2.6.37rcx. that bluetooth dongle didnt work, seems that my bluetooth dongle wont he supported in the future
[21:29] <apparle> phoenix_firebrd: but where is the bug
[21:29] <apparle> phoenix_firebrd:  I mean you will have to find the source of the problem
[21:30] <phoenix_firebrd> apparle: ya everyone using the particular brand of bluethooth are having problem
[21:30] <apparle> phoenix_firebrd: which brand?
[21:30] <phoenix_firebrd> apparle: accel semiconductors, china
[21:30] <apparle> phoenix_firebrd: and isn't there a single patch or something for it?
[21:31] <phoenix_firebrd> apparle: no
[21:31] <phoenix_firebrd> apparle: bug is already filed
[21:31] <apparle> phoenix_firebrd: give me the link
[21:31] <phoenix_firebrd> apparle: ok wait
[21:32] <phoenix_firebrd> apparle: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/398930
[21:33] <apparle> phoenix_firebrd: has anyone tried locating the problem in the C code?
[21:33] <phoenix_firebrd> apparle: this is the vendor id : product id  0c10:0000
[21:34] <phoenix_firebrd> apparle: dont know about that
[21:34] <phoenix_firebrd> apparle: i dont know much about hardware programming
[21:34] <phoenix_firebrd> apparle: last time tried to debug a driver found out some asm routines
[21:35] <phoenix_firebrd> apparle: if i have to debug i have to look for the source code of the file btusb.so
[21:35] <phoenix_firebrd> the btusb.so is the driver
[21:37] <apparle> phoenix_firebrd: in which ubuntuversion did it work alright?
[21:38] <phoenix_firebrd> apparle: it didnt work in any version
[21:38] <apparle> phoenix_firebrd: but the bug says, it worked in Jaunty
[21:38] <apparle> phoenix_firebrd: did you check in the old versions?
[21:38] <phoenix_firebrd> apparle: i havnt used jaunty
[21:38] <phoenix_firebrd> apparle: i started with karmic
[21:39] <phoenix_firebrd> apparle: should i check with the older versions?
[21:39] <apparle> phoenix_firebrd: can't help, I don't know much about drivers either
[21:40] <phoenix_firebrd> apparle: if it works in the older version, what should i do next?
[21:40] <apparle> phoenix_firebrd: you could try with jaunty..... but I suggest you try ubuntu because kbluetooth was horrible in jaunty
[21:40] <apparle> phoenix_firebrd: I think maybe,  you could try installing the latest kernel or the bluetooth driver into jaunty so that we can make sure if it is driver problem or not
[21:42] <jmichaelx> would there not be a way to use gnome's bluetooth tools in KDE?
[21:42] <phoenix_firebrd> apparle: even if i find that its a driver problem what will the solution for it
[21:42] <jmichaelx> providing the issue is the tools, not something kernel-related
[21:43] <phoenix_firebrd> jmichaelx: i tried blueman already, thats not the problem
[21:43] <jmichaelx> phoenix_firebrd: ok... sorry for budding-in right in he middle of things then!
[21:43] <jmichaelx> the*
[21:44] <phoenix_firebrd> jmichaelx: thats ok
[21:44] <apparle> phoenix_firebrd: then at least we have localized the problem
[21:44] <apparle> :P
[21:44] <apparle> phoenix_firebrd: maybe you could search through all the patches to see if there has been a regression, and fix it
[21:45] <apparle> phoenix_firebrd: if it is not the driver but bluez then you could search through its patches
[21:45] <jmichaelx> the thing i hate most about linux is not that there is a fair amount of hardware that does not work... what i hate is that there are so many things that work in one version, but not in the next... only to work again in the next, and once more not work in the next
[21:45] <apparle> phoenix_firebrd: but I think that would go out of hand
[21:45] <jmichaelx> it's that way with wireless, video, audio, bluetooth... you name it
[21:46] <phoenix_firebrd> apparle: i tried the latest version of bluez, thats not the problem
[21:46] <jmichaelx> phoenix_firebrd: are you in maverick?
[21:46] <apparle> phoenix_firebrd: I mean if an older version of bluez worked then, maybe there has been a rgression
[21:47] <phoenix_firebrd> jmichaelx: ya
[21:47] <phoenix_firebrd> apparle: i will recheck that, i will be back shortly
[21:47] <apparle> phoenix_firebrd: what
[21:47] <apparle> phoenix_firebrd: how will you check that
[21:47] <jmichaelx> phoenix_firebrd: one option you *might* consider is intsalling the 2.6.36 kernel from the kernel ppa.... it is possible that could make a difference
[21:48] <phoenix_firebrd> apparle: going the install the bluez latest version again and check
[21:48] <apparle> phoenix_firebrd: you could do that, try install a jaunty version.... and if you have good net connection, download jaunty and test it there
[21:48] <phoenix_firebrd> jmichaelx: today i tried the kubuntu 11.04 alpha, that has kernel 2.6.37 rcx, no use
[21:49] <jmichaelx> phoenix_firebrd: even if .37 didn't work, .36 might
[21:49] <phoenix_firebrd> apparle: sure trying jaunty will be my next step
[21:49] <jmichaelx> phoenix_firebrd: everything is just wildly back and forth
[21:49] <phoenix_firebrd> apparle: one small note, 11.04 was very fast
[21:49] <apparle> jmichaelx: not wildly
[21:50] <phoenix_firebrd> jmichaelx: :)
[21:50] <jmichaelx> apparle: wildly.... if you think otherwise, you have lucked into the right combination of hardware
[21:50] <apparle> phoenix_firebrd: that is always the case.... if luckily all of your hardware works well in new version then it is always faster than previous
[21:51] <phoenix_firebrd> jmichaelx: is 2.6.36 available is kubuntu beta ppa
[21:51] <jmichaelx> phoenix_firebrd: it may be... i was thinking of a specific kernel ppa
[21:51] <phoenix_firebrd> jmichaelx: i am afraid if it will break my system
[21:52] <jmichaelx> phoenix_firebrd: i only suggested the .36 kernel, since it would be an easy thing to test. if it doesn't help, just uninstall
[21:52] <jmichaelx> phoenix_firebrd: if it does not work, you just remove the package
[21:52] <phoenix_firebrd> jmichaelx: ok, after testing with bluez
[21:53] <phoenix_firebrd> i will be back after testing
[21:53] <chris____> Hello, I was wondering if I could get some help with a problem I have upgrading my 9.10 Kubuntu to 10.04.1 LTS.
[21:54] <chris____> Every time I try to upgrade the upgrader returns exit code 127.
[21:55] <phoenix_firebrd> chris____: did you check the webpage before upgrading. there might be a preupgrade tasks
[21:55] <phoenix_firebrd> brb
[21:58] <jmichaelx> chris____: you could try upgrading from the command line
[21:58] <jmichaelx> chris____: do you have many packages installed from 3rd party repos?
[21:59] <chris____> Nah, actually just installed 9.10 from a stick and now want to upgrade strate away.
[22:00] <chris____> Especially since for some reason 9.10 doesn't support my wi-fi out of the box for some reason, but I heard lucid does.
[22:00] <jmichaelx> chris____: ok, BEFORE you upgrade to 10.04, you should make sure you update your 9.10 installation
[22:00] <jmichaelx> chris____: what wireless adapter are you using?
[22:01] <chris____> How do I do that?  When I open up package man. the only upgrade I see is to lucid.
[22:02] <chris____> Broadcom Corporation BCM4312 802.11b/g
[22:02] <chris____> According to lspci | grep Network
[22:02] <jmichaelx> chris____: ok, did you already select to upgrade to karmic at some point?
[22:03] <jmichaelx> chris____: yes, that card should work in 9.04.... but upgrading to 10.04 would be worthwhile in any event
[22:03] <chris____> Nah, all I did was install 9.10 and then try to update; but only option is to upgrade to lucid in package manager.
[22:03] <jmichaelx> 9.10*
[22:03] <jmichaelx> chris____: i am honestly not very familiar with the update manager... just open a terminal and run "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade"
[22:03] <chris____> I've heard some others have strange out-of-box probs with driver.
[22:03] <chris____> I'll try that... thanks.
[22:04] <jmichaelx> chris____: well, the firmware is not there out of the box
[22:04] <apparle> chris____: why do you want to upgrade.... just perform a fresh installation
[22:04] <chris____> I'd rather just upgrade if possible apparle ;D
[22:05] <jmichaelx> chris____: i should have asked the same thing apparle is asking... if this is a fresh installation to begin with, you should do a fresh installation of 10.04
[22:05] <chris____> sudo apt-get update seems to be updating fine...
[22:05] <apparle> chris____: it is too much a hassle.... if you can backup, do an upgrade....
[22:05] <chris____> I'll try dist-upgrade when that's done, thanks for now anyways!
[22:06] <jmichaelx> chris____: when that is finished, after rebooting someone should be able to help with upgrading to 10.04
[22:06] <chris____> Kay thanks!!
[22:08] <apparle> chris____: I still think you should do a fresh install.... is there any specific reason you stick to upgrade?
[22:12] <chris____> Why do I need to fresh install?  What's the plus-side?
[22:15] <chris____> I'm gonna upgrade to lucid tommorow, getting late.  I tried starting it and it works fine but 1h30m download needs to wait!  Thanks for the help.
[22:15] <chris____> Yeah; I know.  My internet's slow.#
[22:16] <jmichaelx> chris____: fresh installs are always the surest way to a cleanly running system.... but upgrades do usually work fine

[22:27] <Freddy2> hi

[22:43] <Freddy2> ah, it comes from staging hehe
[22:46] <Freddy2> ok, staging is out and no more updates (4.5.1 is the top most available for lucid)
[23:05] <RadSurfer> What is needed to get Kubuntu to recognize a video dvd? Nothing appears to happen when I insert one
[23:14] <asfyxia> @Radsurfer, don you get an indication on your screen that your system recognizes a new medium?
[23:15] <RadSurfer> Dolphin does not.
[23:15] <RadSurfer> vlc, and gxine does not play dvd's.
[23:15] <RadSurfer> Something is obviously missing I'm guessing
[23:16] <asfyxia> Did you try a regular cd or something like that?
[23:16] <RadSurfer> data dvd's read fine
[23:16] <RadSurfer> I'm trying to watch a video dvd
[23:17] <asfyxia> Well, that's odd. VLC should play a dvd. Or is it protected by css or DRM?
[23:17] <RadSurfer> no idea. how can I check. it doesn't recognize it
[23:17] <RadSurfer> I could try another, see if any work
[23:18] <asfyxia> I think your dvd is protected. DRM is a bitch and you can't get to work. For css (I think it was called that way) is possible
[23:18] <RadSurfer> hmm.
[23:19] <RadSurfer> A different video dvd is recognized.
[23:19] <RadSurfer> oh pooh
[23:19] <asfyxia> Let me look up something, just hold on...
[23:20] <jmichaelx> RadSurfer: have you installed libdvdcss2? you will need to get it from medibuntu, or some other 3rd party source
[23:21] <asfyxia> Radsurfer, I found it: you open a terminal, and do sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread4/install-css.sh .That should do the trick (copy/paste it to avoid mistyping) ;-)
[23:22] <RadSurfer> done.
[23:26] <barraponto> how do i upgrade to kde >= 4.5.2 ??
[23:28] <asfyxia> @RadSurfer, can you get your dvd working now?
[23:28] <RadSurfer> no. Apparently they are encrypted or something. a "standard/ordinary" video dvd plays fine
[23:29] <jmichaelx> asfyxia: i had no idea that an install script for dvd css was included somewhere in an ubuntu installation
[23:29] <jmichaelx> asfyxia: is the included css the same or similar to the libdvdcss2 that is available from medibuntu?
[23:30] <asfyxia> Too bad for you. Then I'm afraid itś locked by DRM. A couple of weeks ago I heard that they cracked the code, but it will take some time before we can enjoy that
[23:31] <asfyxia> @jmichaelx, yes it is. By this way you avoid the slow medibuntu servers. With thanks to our forum hero Pjotr who wrote the instruction ;-)
[23:31] <jmichaelx> asfyxia: well ty... i am happy to have leaned about this
[23:31] <jmichaelx> learned*
[23:32] <asfyxia> Ok, I'm going now, thatś all I could do for you. I'm from the Netherlands and it's already night here ;-)
[23:34] <jmichaelx> het is ook nacht hier in die USA
[23:34] <maco> !de | jmichaelx
