Could be wrong though [00:11] ha i got it, nvm -- need to add them via the application launcher menu [00:11] :D ::cheers:: === emma is now known as em [00:19] gute nacht [00:29] hey all [00:29] Riddell: kdebase-workspace-bin amd64 4:4.5.80-0ubuntu5~maverick1~ppa1 -> 4.6 beta? [00:29] Riddell: I was surprised it was not tagged 4:4.5.4 [00:37] how to install additional locale? [00:41] i want a dictionary. i dont want to install the front end app and the dictionary file seperately. any dictionary that comes bundled with the dict file? [02:42] is the current kde with maverick pretty stable? is it worth checking out? [03:15] i have a wired broadband and my internetis working partialy. can someone help? [03:17] what do you mean by "partially" ? [03:18] hi [03:19] anyone know how to change mouse sensitivity to slower than what system settings allows using kubuntu 10.04 [03:20] surunveri: you can look at man xset - something like xset m 3/2 4 might work for you [03:20] i think i tried that [03:20] but i'll try again :D [03:21] what's the slowest possible option for xset? [03:22] it takes a fractional valie - 3/2 = 1.5 so you could try 1/1 [03:22] kk well i dont tihnk that slows it down to any further than what systemsettings allows [03:23] i think the 3/2 part means teh acceleration which can be set to 0.1 from settings.. well i didnt notice any difference at least :/ [03:23] the default is 2/1 iirc [03:24] try with the threshold set to 0 then [03:24] that wont work either [03:25] just saying won't work isn't really useful... [03:25] yea it doesnt [03:25] :D [03:28] anyhow i've had this problem for quite soem time and it would be really nice to find a solution for it [03:30] wel changing OS Would be one but it's troublesome D: [03:54] i have kubuntu installed. then installed a second distro for dual boot. after reboot, the second distro boots fine, but when i select kubuntu in grub, i get a blank screen with a blinking curser. any ideas? [04:30] !grub [04:30] GRUB is the default boot manager for Ubuntu releases before Karmic (9.10). Lost GRUB after installing Windows?

[05:46] !chroot [05:46] A chroot is used to make programs believe that the directory they are running in is really the root directory. It can be used to stop programs accessing files outside of that directory, or for compiling 32bit applications in a 64bit environment - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BasicChroot [05:46] wedo: ^^ [05:46] how can i make kdm default manager instead of gdm??help [05:47] moetunes: I think the problem happened because it was updating the kernel from 2.6-32-25 to 2.6-32-26 but it did not complete [05:48] wedo: yep that'll break things [05:49] wedo: do you have an older kernel to boot into? [05:49] moetunes: there are another kernel listed in the grub menu but it freezes too when I choose any of them [05:51] wedo: sounds like you only choice is the chroot environment - or a reinstall... [05:51] wedo: chroot from liveCD and reinstall linux-headers. [05:51] it is probably alot more that's wrong then just the headers [05:52] ok thank you guys [05:52] anyone here know their way around the plasmoid yasp-scripted? [05:52] mine stopped showing any data for lines that use "systemmonitor:" in them [05:52] moetunes: yes, but reinstalling the headers shoould reinstall the kernel, no? [05:53] sayakb: not afaik - they are different packages [05:53] moetunes: ah, looks like headers is a metapackage, my bad.. [05:53] np :) [06:00] anyone know how to make kde re-read your plasmoids? i Just recompiled a newer version of one i have but it still shows the old one in the list [06:36] need help remove alsa [06:36] i messed up [06:36] i wanna start over ? [06:38] dhq: doing sudo dpkg-reconfigure alsa should get the configs return to the default [06:39] moetunes: Package `alsa' is not installed and no info is available.Use dpkg --info (= dpkg-deb --info) to examine archive files,and dpkg --contents (= dpkg-deb --contents) to list their contents./usr/sbin/dpkg-reconfigure: alsa is not installed [06:40] try dpkg -l | grep alsa [06:40] !find alsa [06:40] Found: alsa-base, bluez-alsa, gstreamer0.10-alsa, libsdl1.2debian-alsa, linux-backports-modules-alsa-2.6.35-22-generic, linux-backports-modules-alsa-2.6.35-22-generic-pae, alsa-oss, alsa-source, alsa-tools, alsa-tools-gui (and 44 others) http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=alsa&searchon=names&suite=maverick§ion=all [06:41] dhq@dhqlaptop:~$ sudo dpkg-reconfigure alsa-source [06:41] /usr/sbin/dpkg-reconfigure: alsa-source is broken or not fully installed [06:41] I would have thought alsa-base would be the one - try sudo apt-get install -f then [06:43] alsa-base is already the newest version.

[06:47] !checkinstall [06:47] checkinstall is a wrapper to "make install", useful for installing programs you compiled. It will create a .deb package, which will be listed in the APT database and can be uninstalled like other packages. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CheckInstall - Read the warnings at the top and bottom of that web page, and DO NOT interrupt CheckInstall while it's running! [06:50] i dint use check install [06:51] you'll have to manually edit the files or install it again and hope the files get rewritten then [06:52] how do i do that [06:53] I have no idea what files are involved in whatever it was you installed - try using checkinstal;l to make theapp again [06:53] isnt there a way to purge entire alsa from the system and then reinstall it [06:55] only if it was installed from the package manager - how can stuff be managed if it was just added any old how [06:56] and not by the package manager [06:57] :( [06:58] i have no sound [06:58] live and learn... [07:00] moetunes: thanks for your help [07:18] has anyone else had an issue with kde 4.6 beta 1 with intel driver in mesa? [08:13] I want to install kubuntu 64 bit. But it says amd64 on the filename. Is it amd specific or will it work on intel as well? [08:13] intel licenses the amd64 architecture from amd [08:13] unless you have an itanium, it'll work [08:14] (i know it sounds odd. amd made a backwards-compatible-with-32-bit arch, and intel didn't, so then amd's architecture became more popular, and eventually intel kinda gave up on itanium outside the server market) [08:19] oh cool! === hoangduc is now known as boy9000 [10:48] #pardus [10:48] good morning :) [10:49] thank u [10:49] good afternoon [10:50] :)) [10:50] huhh [10:51] nick Midnight_Glow === MidnightGlow_ is now known as Midnight_Glow [10:51] clear [10:57] ubuntu-tr [10:57] #ubuntu-tr === yofel_ is now known as yofel [11:52] Hello [11:52] one of my partition on /dev/sda3 for "/usr" is almost full [11:53] I have created another one by doubling the size on /dev/sda4 [11:53] then I have done dd if=/dev/sd3 of=/dev/sda4 [11:54] at the end the new partition is also full ! [11:55] what is wrong when you copy byte after byte with dd [11:56] any idea ? [11:57] it looks like the information on occupation of partition has also been copied !!! === deedee is now known as iLeak [12:16] dmoyne: thanks to dd copying byte by byte, you also copy the filesystem information over to the new partition, so it still thinks it has the same size as the old one [12:16] bluedevil is not working . i am getting this error "Can not get ibus-daemon's address. IBusInputContext::createInputContext: no connection to ibus-daemon" [12:16] 'sudo resize2fs /dev/sda4' should help there [12:17] dmoyne: assuming you use ext* [12:17] yofel thanks but why this situation ? [12:17] yofel I iuse for both partitions ext4 [12:18] dmoyne: because with dd you copied over the filesystem meta information that contains the partition block count, and filesystem size too, thus overwriting the new filesystem on sda4 [12:18] dd doesn't just copy the filesystem contents but also the filesystem itself [12:19] so by doing sudo resize2fs /dev/sda4 it will resize coorectly the target partition correctly ? [12:20] that should do it I think [12:21] I try and tell you afterwards [12:22] funny when I did it the systemm asked me to do first 'e2fsk -f /dev/sda4' which I did [12:23] then I did what you said and my occupation ratio on /dev/da4 partition is now correct [12:23] yofel thanks [12:24] np [12:24] ok by !

[16:58] just what I wrote above, two shifts together [16:58] and in System Settings it reflects that [16:58] I just do not see apps following that policy [16:58] and this changed when I upgraded last night [16:58] to 4.5.80 [16:59] Roey: is the switching policy set to global? [16:59] yes [17:00] phoenix_firebrd: (but it's not just that... it's all the options for keyboard configuration like I listed above [17:00] My "[x] Make Capslock an additional Control" setting, "Both shift together" to switch keyboard layouts setting, keyboard repeat rate and repeat delay are set, but I don't see this behavior....

[17:03] the 4.5.80 thing confused me too [17:03] yup [17:03] phoenix_firebrd: I just saw some packages marked 4.5.80 [17:03] Roey: oh [17:04] 4.5.80 = 4.6 alpha [17:04] Roey: is 4.5.80 -->4.6 beta 1?

[17:05] that's what I assume [17:05] i forget what 4.6 thing just came out [17:05] i just know very high .x means its the pre-release for the next one [17:05] hmm yeh must be beta 1 [17:06] because -devel /topic says "lets package beta 2" [17:06] maco:can Roey be directed to the ubuntu+1 channel? [17:06] why should he?

[17:07] maco: but kde 4.6 beta is part of 11.04 right, there he might get some help [17:07] so this is beta 2, got it. [17:07] no beta 1 [17:07] beta 2's not packaged yet [17:07] beta 1 just came out a couple days ago [17:07] got it. Point is, it's an alpha of 4.6 and that's what I wondered about the .80 designation, that's all :) [17:08] er [17:08] beat of 4.6 [17:08] *beta === david_ is now known as daves-not-here [17:09] Roey: have you upgraded your regular os to the beta?

(cant fix em if ya cant find em) [17:11] phoenix_firebrd: no [17:11] Roey: good [17:11] ya know, funny thing is I bought Windows last month [17:11] intending to switch [17:11] O_o [17:11] but I lasted all of...two days [17:11] the environment feels so stifling [17:12] I wanted to use an OS that works [17:12] Roey: do you play games? [17:12] I wanted to [17:12] Half-Life 2, for example [17:12] games and Netflix streaming. [17:12] and to be able to put a CD in and have a program pop up and play the darned thing. [17:12] which did /not/ work under KDE. [17:12] (Kubuntu, rather) [17:13] Roey: tried xbmc? [17:13] that's still windows-based, right?

[17:18] phoenix_firebrd: I am wondering if I can return this Windows for a refund [17:18] if I should, even [17:18] Roey: counter strike will be available for linux shortly [17:18] Roey: more game developers are starting to support linux [17:19] sigh [17:19] I don't think so [17:20] I do not agree [17:20] I think that it does not matter since Microsoft keeps inventing new strategies to lock customers and developers into Microsoft. [17:20] One example is Silverlight [17:20] which Netflix Streaming uses [17:20] silverlight / moonlight works fine [17:21] naw. I think Desktop Linux will remain niche in the US. [17:21] unfortunately. [17:21] the actual problem with netflix is not moonlight being bad, it's encryption [17:21] there's DRM [17:21] Roey: there will always be an alternative to microsoft's [17:21] maco: and that's why silverlight works [17:21] and the Linux ecosphere fails. [17:21] (not that I'm blaming Linux here... it's squarely Microsoft's fault) [17:21] phoenix_firebrd: not for netflix streaming [17:22] until another firm like Redbox comes up with an alternate provider that uses an open format [17:22] Roey: nokia stopped providing drm protected music [17:23] Roey: soon it will [17:23] Roey: change [17:23] phoenix_firebrd: video is the next big thing to conquer then [17:23] also, why am I limited to .mp3? [17:23] as this discussion on DRM is not really a support topic, perhaps it could be moved to kubunu-offtopic?

Thanks a lot! [20:04] harleen: hi [20:06] an1: you're welcome! [20:08] but it doesnt login via x! im yet to try console login. after entering username and password there is a black screen. thats it [20:10] ok i have a question [20:11] is there any possibility in kubuntu could damage my grapic card? [20:11] wilhart: I can't think of any way Kubuntu could do that [20:12] dthacker: okok, even tho i fiddle with nvidia settings? [20:13] like v-sync to monitor etc? [20:13] dthacker: my card got damaged dunno why probably was so old.. 3y old [20:13] dthacker: now i have a better card [20:13] dthacker: btw, should i use kde effects or compiz? [20:14] dthacker: disable effects? and enable compiz? [20:15] wilhart: couldn't say. I just run generic setup with 2 monitors [20:15] is there a way you can start ubuntu in the terminal other than having the x server boot up? [20:16] dthacker: nvidia-settigns - multiple monitors? [20:16] dthacker: and then save settings [20:16] dthacker: what card do you have? [20:16] dthacker: any solutions to my second problem? i tried removing quiet splash, but i dont think it removes. how do i save and quit in the grub edit command screen? [20:18] wilhart: I'm not running propietary drivers [20:18] ok well i'm off to ubu [20:18] dthacker: you trying to install updated nvidia drivers? [20:20] I need some help with installation, could someone assist me with the manual partitioning, I can't understand it and need help, I fear I might erase my windows partition or accidentally remove something I shouldn't [20:21] Do you already have the drive partitioned? [20:22] I have a partitioned drive already, I did it while on my windows [20:23] I'm trying to record a screencast on Maverick with XVidCap. I've got my microphone working and showing the input volume on the PulseAudio volume monitor, but I don't know which device to select in xvidcap to record from it.

[20:24] where do i setup line-in, and mic-in [20:24] i hard distortion [20:24] linein [20:25] it's probably +decibel [20:26] ok alsamixer did the trick [20:31] what's nicer kde effects or compiz? === millun_ is now known as milluin === milluin is now known as millun [20:39] katy perry [20:40] help?

There are a couple of follow up errors mounting folders in root and then it says target filesyste,m doesn't have requested /sbin/init. No init found. Try bypassing init=bootarg. and it opens a command line called busybox v1.15.3 [20:55] i believe the system is a corrupt file system and it might be fixable with a fsck, however the busybox does not seem to know that argument. How else can I do this === Pici` is now known as Pici [21:04] kaddi: you could boot from repair CD or Ubuntu Server and run fsck that way [21:05] dthacker: sadly my cd drive is broken and right now i have no big enough flash drive here to create a bootable one. I can get one tomorrow, but i'd rather fix it today [21:06] dthacker: is there a way in recovery mode to get a normal shell from which i can run fsck [21:12] kaddi: If you can't mount root, you're going to have to boot from an external device. [21:12] dthacker there's no way to run a fsck on it from recovery mode or some such? [21:14] hi [21:14] I think the latest update changed the KDE font to "Ubuntu" [21:14] how bad is that? I really want to go back to the usual one... [21:14] that change happened 10.10 [21:15] not in a post-release update though... [21:15] well but yesterday I did not have this font [21:15] anyway [21:15] how can I set a normal one? [21:15] did you upgrade from10.04 to 10.10? [21:15] as always, system settings [21:15] yes but several weeks ago [21:15] i think font settings are in the application settings section [21:16] maco, ok but what was the default? [21:16] then i suspect you only *noticed* yesterday [21:16] probably Deja Vu Sans [21:16] no yesterday it was good, believe me [21:16] kaddi: I'm not familiar with this recovery mode you speak of. How are you accessing it? [21:16] this morning I start it and BOOM the bad surprise [21:16] did you not reboot til now? [21:16] maco, thanks I will try immediately! [21:16] I did a reboot yesterday [21:17] actually, a regular shutdown [21:17] normally I always "suspend" or "hibernate" [21:17] but i mean between your upgrade and yesterday...did you not log out / shutdown / reboot at all? [21:17] because it shouldve gone into effect the first time you logged in after the upgrade [21:17] maco, who knows... [21:18] dthacker: when you install standard ubuntu it will always install too options per kernel: normal kernel and kernel (recoverymode). From what I can tell, recovery mode shows you a boot log and won't start x, but give you a terminal if it loads successfully [21:18] ok I put "Sans Serif" and it seems to be the correct one [21:22] kaddi: If you get a command line booting into the recovery mode, then try to run /sbin/fsck -t [fslist] [21:24] dthacker: i get the same as i get when trying to boot normally. for what it's worth when i try to mount the partition to /test I get this error ext4-fs (sda5): error loading journal. Will try your command next, but i don't believe it knows fsck [21:25] dthacker: there's mount.ntfs. mount.fuse, wait-for-root. udevadm, pkill, dumpe2fs. udevd,modprobe. rmmod, hwclock, blkid and dmsetup in /sbin [21:30] kaddi: /sbin is where fsck lives, so you'll have to boot from liveCD or other device to get it. [21:33] >.< thanks anyways dthacker [21:55] hi all [21:55] I try to switch between hebrew and en [21:55] in ubuntu 10.10 [21:55] it dosn't let me add hebrew keyboard layout , any idea?
