A clean install is not an option [14:31] hello everyone [14:35] my kubuntu=10.10, kde=4.5.4 , kernel=2.6.35-23. i think my current kernel has some regression, bluetooth is not working properly, checked it with the previous version(2.6.35-22) bluetooth works fine. does kde 4.5.4 depend on 2.6.35-23 and is it safe to uninstall the kernel 2.6.35-23 and its headers [14:36] help [14:36] how do i check the satus of website periodically?? Is there any application for this in KDE???? [14:37] kirthi: does the webpage support rss [14:37] no [14:37] kirthi: what do you mean by 'status'? [14:38] kirthi: there is a widget to display a webpage , it may help you [14:38] i mean if the site is low or the server [14:38] how to check that [14:38] kirthi: oh [14:39] I still don't understand the question - what's low? what's your definition of a site vs. a server? [14:39] help please [14:39] yeah [14:40] it means the website and server...which is slow or not responding [14:41] kirthi:you can use google chrome's inspect elements to check if a page element takes a lot of time to load [14:42] hmm [14:42] kirthi: there are online tools and browser plugins (firebug, pagespeed) that measure the response times for each http request in a browser session... would that help you determine where you're losing time? [14:43] kirthi: if there is no problem with webage, try to browse the webpage using a anonymous proxy to see if there is a problem with your isp's router [14:44] ya i guess it would help...but...i was thinking are there any tools or applications in the KDE to check this? [14:44] i upgraded VMWare Workstation to 7.1.3 today and my mouse stopped working (both with and without VMWare Tools installed). I tried reinstalling kubntu over top of it self twice with no luck, ran dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg several times and still nothing. when i boot the live CD the mouse works perfectly. how can I force my installed Kubuntu to redetect the VMware mouse? A clean install is not an option [14:44] kirthi: you can use tracert to see what server in between is taking much time [14:44] kirthi: not specific to KDE, as far as I know [14:44] ok [14:45] !traceroute [14:45] kirthi: but of course any browser plugin, online service, or command line utility will work just fine under KDE as well... [14:45] ohh [14:46] i think i have to install that [14:46] in my pc [14:46] kirthi: one that specific webpage is slower or one than one? [14:47] guys, you're not making any sense :-P [14:47] that is what i am not getting...is there a problem with my website or from the server [14:47] i want to make sure that which one is slow [14:47] sorry [14:47] ok [14:47] NP [14:48] kirthi: can you describe your situation better? do you have your own website/webapp hosted on a remote server, and you're not sure if the host or your app is slow? [14:48] ya i do have it on the remote server.. [14:49] but i am not sure which is at fault the server or the webpage [14:49] kirthi: are there other websites on that server you can compare with? [14:49] yes [14:49] but they are all not in the same pace [14:50] some are running fast and some are slow [14:50] kirthi: i think there are ways to test the quality of a server online, wait let me check that for you [14:50] ok sure [14:50] here's one I just found: http://www.octagate.com/service/SiteTimer/ [14:51] kirthi: http://www.vertain.com/?sst [14:51] ok [14:52] my kubuntu=10.10, kde=4.5.4 , kernel=2.6.35-23. i think my current kernel has some regression, bluetooth is not working properly, checked it with the previous version(2.6.35-22) bluetooth works fine. does kde 4.5.4 depend on 2.6.35-23 and is it safe to uninstall the kernel 2.6.35-23 and its headers [14:53] help [14:54] any one here [14:54] ok..thanks u very much Phoenix and amichair [14:54] phoenix_firebrd: sorry I don't know the answer to that :-/ [14:54] i got the solutiom [14:54] amichair: ok [14:54] solution [14:54] kirthi: what [14:54] .thanks u very much Phoenix and amichair [14:54] kirthi: what did you find? [14:55] kirthi: ya what was the solution [14:55] i upgraded VMWare Workstation to 7.1.3 today and my mouse stopped working (both with and without VMWare Tools installed). I tried reinstalling kubntu over top of it self twice with no luck, ran dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg several times and still nothing. when i boot the live CD the mouse works perfectly. how can I force my installed Kubuntu to redetect the VMware mouse? A clean install is not an option [14:56] i got to know that my site is slow as well as the server...coz other page like FB and google are fast [14:56] and there is lot of traffic involved in my server [14:56] so both are getting slow [14:57] kirthi: if you use e.g. the pagespeed plugin, it will help you analyze what's slow and suggest solutions. It's a great tool for web development. [14:58] vinylfreak89: did you try starting the os without the xorg.conf file? [14:58] ohh [14:58] there is no Xorg.conf file [14:58] i will try it [14:58] its using the new Xorg 7.3 [14:59] vinylfreak89: I don't know if this is your case, but there was a nasty bug causing mouse trouble for a bunch of wireless models, fixed in the latest kernel update - are you all up to date?

[15:03] vinylfreak89: is your mouse detected? [15:03] how can i determine that [15:04] if it doesn't move im going to assume no [15:06] i suppose booting verbose would be a good idea... can't believe i didn't think of that [15:07] vinylfreak89:try this "xinput list" [15:07] ok [15:07] hang on [15:07] VM is booting [15:09] virtualcore printer and virtualcore keyboard, no mouse [15:10] vinylfreak89: try this "cat /proc/bus/input/devices" [15:10] power button [15:10] and keyboard [15:10] no mouse === michael is now known as Guest48850 [15:12] btw phoenix_firebird tyvm for your help [15:12] vinylfreak89: see if this page helps you https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Input [15:12] vinylfreak89: yw [15:12] brb [15:13] ok [15:14] detected a problem with kmail [15:15] kmail seems to eat my memory (2.9 GB) [15:15] is there a known bug?

[15:26] vinylfreak89: thats out of my knowledge buddy ,sorry.

[18:57] yes [18:57] Are you using the Firefox Installer that is in the K Menu? === WindPower_ is now known as WindPower [18:58] i tried it, the one listed under internet, it was the browser setup [18:58] it did not work [18:58] cyberghost: Firefox is a browser. When you say it did not work, what happened, or didn't happen? [18:58] and i've tried to get it via command line and nothing happened... said something about the source is temorarily unavailable or something [18:59] reboot will help you))) [18:59] i think... [19:00] firefox normally installed on my desktop after reboot [19:00] I don't know what to do, I'm very new to linux [19:00] thing is, i deleted it and now i'm trying to find it again [19:00] lol [19:01] cyberghost: The Firefox Installer does work. If you ran it, Firefox should be installed. Reboot and then check the K > Internet menu again. [19:02] @Snowhog, where can I obtain the proper pacakge of firefox that can be installed on my system? [19:02] I deleted the one undernet the internet menu beings it would not install last time [19:03] cyberghost: That is what the Firefox Installer does - it installs Firefox Web Browser on your system. It is that simple. [19:03] cyberghost: REBOOT. Please. Then check again in K Menu > Internet. Firefox should be there. [19:03] Understand that but I no longer of the installer because I deleted it. [19:04] cyberghost are you russian? [19:04] okay [19:04] will do [19:04] thanks [19:04] negative [19:04] No need to reboot. Log out then log back in again.

[19:08] reboot didn't work [19:08] oh wait, let me check the trash [19:08] sudo apt-get install firefox [19:09] cyberghost: Are you willing to do some command line work? [19:10] i will try that [19:11] @Darth, I'm down for anything... I would just like to install FF because the default browser stinks [19:12] xoma, seems to bet grabbing the file [19:12] never worked before m8 [19:12] lol [19:13] I hope I can get Kubuntu to work the way I want it because I have grown to Hate Windows OS's [19:13] cyberghost: You will. :-) [19:13] =) [19:13] Darth, gimme a minute to see if this method works for me [19:14] cyberghost: If you're doing "sudo apt-get install firefox", it should work. Afterwards, "dpkg --list | grep firefox" will tell you if it's installed. [19:22] cyberghost: Well? Are you enjoying the delights of Firefox now? [19:22] It's still downloading, My internet is extremely slow but that will be taken care of in a day or so... [19:23] at least there is proof its in the mix lol [19:23] You will likely want to install flash-plugin also. Or perhaps not if you've got a slow net connection. [19:23] о_0 GPRS?

[19:27] I have a question about ubuntu [19:27] russian people pay 50 bucks for 10-100mbit in different regions... [19:28] nice! [19:28] cyberghost: 4G is a protocol for cell phone internet/data access. [19:28] I will run a speed test when I get it and let you know [19:28] what is the difference between ubuntu and debian because I use the same command line for them [19:28] ? [19:29] cyberghost: Be careful. Your use is likely metered. [19:29] Guest22033: Ubuntu is based on Debian. [19:29] Guest22033: Ubuntu is Debian, developed for the desktop. [19:29] ok [19:29] Guest22033: But it is not part of the Debian distribution, it is a separate endeavour. [19:30] ok [19:30] thx [19:30] cyberghost: What you will want to know, is how much - per month - bandwidth you will be getting for your $50.00, and how much extra you will be charged when you go over that limit. [19:30] Guest22033: Ubuntu takes Debian, adds its own special sauce :-) and makes an easy to use distribution Debian is many things but it is not easy to use. [19:31] yep it's true [19:32] hi when i try to login into kde, i got logged out again [19:32] my kdm log is here: http://pastebin.com/jWMDJ6NZ [19:32] i think IBusInputContext::createInputContext: no connection to ibus-daemon [19:32] isn't that good [19:32] Guest22033: Also, Ubuntu can use a number of different desktop environments. The default environment is GNOME (GNU Network Object Model Environment). Kubuntu (which is what this channel is about) uses the much superior :-) KDE Software Compilation. [19:33] any kind of help would be cool [19:33] Guest22033: Which desktop environment you use (GNOME, KDE, XfCE or L???) is a matter of personal choice. [19:34] ok [19:34] !lubuntu [19:34] lubuntu is a project to create a derivative of Ubuntu using the LXDE desktop environment. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu . /join #lubuntu for lubuntu support.
