Scuniziwow.. I just did a update/upgrade/dist-upgrade on my 10.04 system and there's 120 packages to upgrade and 1 held back.. almost the entire kde system and k"apps"00:58
Scuniziand I just did that a week ago with almost no updates.. looks like kde version 4.4.5 is what's coming in.. was that the original with the install or was it 4.3 or 4.4?01:00

pulaskiHello. I used "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" in an attempt to upgrade from kubuntu 10.04 lucid lynx to kubuntu 10.10. maverick meekrat. It all seemed to end to quickly. Is there a cli command do indicate my whether my current distro is kubunt 10.04 or 10.10?01:27
claydohpulaski: dist-upgrade does not upgrade you to the next version01:29
claydoh!upgrade01:29
ubottuFor upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/upgrade01:29

pulaskiclaydoh: Thanks for responding. Thats just what I need.01:31
claydohreya276: nope , not as far as I can see Pandora is closed, there is one or 2 for lastfm iirc you should be able to search and install one in the Get Widgets applet01:37

reya276which means it can be used professionally01:42
claydohthen press the Get Widgets button01:42

ner0xIs it possible to link laptop to desktop from eth0 <=> eth0?01:49

reya276so Tell me again why are people still using Windows?01:49
ner0xSort of like a proxy.01:49
claydohreya276: http://userbase.kde.org/Plasma/HowTo/4.5 is more specific for the KDE in 10.1001:49
reya276wow I bet MS ripped off most of this stuff for Windows 701:50

=== ralsina_afk is now known as ralsina
ct529geekosopher: it seems that either they are not quite well deployed on kubuntu (because what other people can achieve is quite aestetically pleasing) or I am not using the right documentation.12:41
ct529geekosopher: I would like to have a nice activity swicther, with several different activities that I can use to show people the flexibility / friendliness of the interface12:42

ct529geekosopher: best thing I found is http://hanschen.org/2009/11/17/how-do-you-use-activities/ but cannot reproduce his results12:42

yofel(note: I'm using 4.6 so I hope you have it too)12:46
ct529yofel: nope, stuck on 453 .... I am using 1004 lts on a producton machine12:47
yofelct529: do you have 'plasma-widgets-workspace' installed?12:48
ct529yofel: wait12:48
ct529yofel: yes12:49

yofelgood, can't really check this here :/12:50
ct529yofel: yes, I found it12:52
harrisonhello12:54
ct529yofel: mmmm .... when I use it to switch activity, it does disappear .... you have to define it within each activity .... also, whenever you add an activity type desktop, it goes back to some default setting instead of using you Desktop settings (if you are using it)12:54
harrisonhello can someone tell me how stable kde 4.6 rc2 is12:56
yofelharrison: rc1 is reasonably stable, I only get one crash on logout, rc2 should be available for kubuntu in a day or 212:59
harrisonisnt it out12:59
yofelreleased from KDE yes, but the packaging is stuck a bit12:59

DaSkreeCHDon't think so14:12
jhohnDon't think so means unsure ... pls. check14:12
DaSkreeCHjhohn: hmm14:12
DaSkreeCHapparently I hadn't selected anything14:13
DaSkreeCHI have no session at all14:13
jhohnif you have a xterm you have a session14:13
DaSkreeCHNothing was selected for the session14:13
jhohnmoment pls.14:13
jhohnDaSkreeCH: pls try: logoff and logon again,  choose "KDE" for session in logon screen (kdm)14:22
DaSkreeCHjhohn: That works14:23
jhohnit normaly uses the last choise, so if you once start with failsafe it will do so untill you change it14:24
jhohnand somehow you once started in failsafe mode14:25
jhohnmaybe something went wrong in normal startup and kdm started failsafe for chance of repair14:25
DaSkreeCHjhohn: looks so. I uninstalled gdm and installed kdm might have done it14:30
DaSkreeCHKdm apparently doesn't set a default14:31

=== Alexa is now known as Guest1596
Guest86006Sorry15:54
Guest86006ok, it seems there is someone.15:55
Guest86006I have a problem using kubuntu and I need some quick help15:55
yofelfire away, we'll see if I can help15:56
Guest86006I have a USB harddisk plugged to my pc. As I inserted an secound usb device, the hd got unmounted/disconnected while ther was some file transfer15:57
Guest86006On the hd there is a xfs (!) filesystem.15:57
Guest86006I reinsertet the usb harddrive but now it is no more the device sdd but sdf.15:58
Guest86006As xfs writes very lazyly to the disk, some of the written data are sill in ram. (dmesg sais, that the device /dev/sdd1 returns an xfs error nr.5)15:59
Guest86006I had such a problem on a debian system, but there the same name as before was used, so after reinserting the usb device, all data were written an all went ok16:01
Guest86006I do not know whether the device has some critical data written in ram. I deleted files from the hd, so there should not be a big damage, if the data is lost, bt I do not know if other data might be corrupted if I restart my pc16:02
Guest86006So: Does anybody has an idea, what I can do to restore the data or - if that's not possible - how I can restore the superblock16:03
Guest86006?16:03
Guest86006(a manual mount sais: mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sdf1)16:04
yofelback, had to take care of something, reading..16:07
yofelGuest86006: well, try fsck.xfs (?) on the drive I guess, the device name change was probably since the kernel didn't yet throw it out and connected it as a different device16:09
Guest86006a fsck.xfs tells me, that I should look at xfs_check and xfs_repair.16:11
Guest86006xfs_check sais, ERROR: The filesystem has valuable metadata changes in a log which needs to16:12
Guest86006be replayed.  Mount the filesystem to replay the log, and unmount it before16:12
Guest86006re-running xfs_check.  If you are unable to mount the filesystem, then use16:12
Guest86006the xfs_repair -L option to destroy the log and attempt a repair.16:12
Guest86006Note that destroying the log may cause corruption -- please attempt a mount16:12
FloodBotK3Guest86006: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.16:12
Guest86006of the filesystem before doing this.16:12
DarthFrogIf you use "xfs_repair -L", you'd lose any unwritten data.  Mind you, I don't see a way out of your dilemma.16:13
DarthFrogAnd restoring the superblock isn't the issue.16:14
Guest86006that's it. I was wondering if could tell the kernel to look at device sdd instead of sdf (or vice versa)16:15
DarthFrogDoubt it.  Don't know for certain though.16:17
Guest86006ok, no else idea than deleting the canges with xfs_repair -L?16:20
Guest86006What changes can be deletet? I mean, is it possible, that after that some files from earlier (before the last umount) get also corrupted?16:21
DarthFrogShouldn't be.  File systems are atomic, I believe, on XFS.16:21
DarthFrogBTW, if you mount file systems by UUID, instead of by device name, you will avoid this problem (which shouldn't have occurred in the first place) in future.16:23
DarthFrog!uuid16:23
ubottuTo see a list of your devices/partitions and their corresponding UUID's, run this command in a !shell: « sudo blkid » (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibAtaForAtaDisks for the rationale behind the transition to UUID)16:23
Guest86006I mounted it using the kde feature16:24
DarthFrogUUID = Unique Unix ID  or Unix Unique ID. :-)16:24
Guest86006I know UUID, but I do not know how to tel kde/plasma to use uuids instead of the normal /dev/sd** files.16:24
DarthFrogGuest86006: It really sounds like a bug to me, that the device name was changed on a mounted file system.16:25
=== sx is now known as By_The_Way
Guest86006tell - I mean16:25
DarthFrogYou'd have to do it manually.  Or setup automounting in fstab for that file system.16:25
Guest86006I think the problem is a (partially) hardware problem: As I inserted the second device, the usb did not have enough power (current!) to drive all devices. So they were thrown out.16:26
Guest86006yes, that would work16:26
=== ralsina_lunch is now known as ralsina
Guest86006OK, I did it16:31
Guest86006I think I have to restart because my kernel seems to know that there was the same uuid mounted and not unmounted.16:32

christianok, back here16:47
=== christian is now known as Guest45950
Guest45950the reboot did the right thing, now I have to check the files.16:49
Guest45950One other question:16:49
Guest45950Is it possible to configure mount or what else so, that as I insert a special usb-device it get's automatically mounted?16:50
MamarokGuest45950: you can set this in the System settings -> Removable Devices16:52
Guest45950No, that's not what I mean. I want it to be mounted by uuid and that seems not possible in system control16:54
DarthFrogGuest45950: I'm not sure that would actually solve your issue.  If, as you mention, the USB file system was removed from the system due to it being underpowered, the solution would seem to be to add more power to the USB system.16:56
DarthFrogI would do so by using an externally powered USB hub.16:56
Guest45950(or not to add that much devices at once)16:56
DarthFrogYes, that would obviate the issue. :-)16:57
Guest45950Next order at a electronic seller will contain one.16:57
DarthFrogAnother idea would be to use the external drive in an eSATA case and connect via the SATA bus, instead of USB.  It would be faster, too.16:58
Guest45950Is eSATA with every SATA HD possible?16:58
DarthFrogFirewire would be another possibility.16:58
Guest45950No, no hardware for firewire in pc, sorry16:59
DarthFrogeSATA is SATA, so yes you could do eSATA with any SATA drive.16:59
=== jape is now known as Misrec

Guest45950ok, thanks a ot till here16:59
DarthFrogYour system would need to provide an eSATA port and you'd have to use an eSATA capable external case.16:59
DarthFrogBut your system would see an external SATA drive exactly the same as any other SATA drive in your system.17:00
DarthFrogThis is the eSATA case I use with my HD PVR:  http://www.ncix.com/products/?sku=39419&vpn=NST-300SU-BK&manufacture=Vantec17:02

James147ecinx: for the iso: "sudo mount -o loop <path to the .iso file> <path to mount point>"...21:57
DarthFrogYou might have to pass "-t iso9660" to that mount command.21:57
James147for the usb: "sudo mount /dev/sdXX <path to mount point>" (where sdXX is the device file for the stick, probally sdb1 sdc1 or similar)21:57
ecinxhome/ecinx/Documents# sudo mount -t iso9660 -o loop /home/ecinx/Desktop/natty-desktop-amd64kB.iso /cdrom/22:01
James147ecinx: its better to use /mnt then /cdrom22:02
ecinxit's asking me to put something specifically in the drive '/cdrom/' and press enter22:02
James147ok then22:02
ecinxthe line i pasted didn't work22:02
ecinxlet me try the usb one22:03
=== jamie is now known as swordfish
James147ecinx: did it give an error/.22:03
=== swordfish is now known as swordfish85
ecinxnope22:03
James147ecinx: then it probally worked... does the output of "mount" list it?22:04
ecinxI don't knw what you mean22:04
ecinxactualy i think it worked22:05
James147ecinx: running "mount" by its self will show what devices are mounted22:06
ecinxhome/ecinx/Documents# sudo mount -t iso9660 -o loop /home/ecinx/Desktop/natty-desktop-amd64kB.iso /cdrom/22:07
ecinxsorry22:07
ecinx/dev/loop0 on /cdrom type iso9660 (rw)22:07
James147^^ i would think thats it,22:08
ecinxin dolphin i don't see anyting22:08
ecinxunder /cdrom/22:09
=== swordfish85 is now known as swordfish85_
James147ecinx: unmount it first then try to remount: "sudo umount /cdrom"22:09
ecinxhow do i use dir22:09
ecinxto list contents?22:09
James147ecinx: and use "ls" to use directory conecnts (like you would dir in windows)22:10
ecinxwhovever made that umount command is lazy22:10
ecinxinstead of unmount22:10
James147:) yeah22:10
ecinxthat pisses me off, more memorization22:10
ecinxand it takes me longer to type umount than unmount22:10
James147you get use to it22:11
ecinxhehe22:11
rtdosjust make an alias, ecinx :)22:11
ecinxnice22:11
James147ecinx: or you can "alias unmount='umount'"  will let you use unmount22:11
ecinxthaks22:12
James147^^ add that command to ~/.bashrc  to make it work between sessions22:12
ecinxlet me jot that down22:12
ecinxI use alias a lot in latex22:13
rtdoswhere in .bashrc would you put that command, james?22:13
ecinxtoo much22:13
James147rtdos: anywhere, dosnt really matter (well, after the interactive check would be wise) i tend to put it with the other alias commands to keep it neat22:14
ecinxalmost to the point that i can type formulas faster than handwriting them22:14
ecinxanyone with quassel how do i ignore the quits and joins22:15
James147ecinx: right click the chat window22:15
James147"hide events"22:16
rtdoshow do i update the repository list and or remove my installation cd from the list ?22:17
ecinxJames147:  that was easy22:17
ecinxi lost the command that i was using22:17
ecinxapt-get fix missing22:18
ecinxor something like that22:18
James147rtdos: "sudo apt-get update" will update it, kpackagekit can edit the list to remove it (or edit /etc/apt/sources.list directly)22:18
rtdoshow do i keep it from requesting the cd ?22:19
James147rtdos: use kpackagekit to remove the repo for the cdrom22:20
rtdosoh i see it, thanks.22:21
ecinxi can't believe my windows are more stable than linux, i always here the contrary22:21
James147ecinx: its likly soemthing you have done/the hardware you are on22:21
ecinxmy laptop is linux certified22:21
ecinxalthough I didn't install any drivers22:22
James147ecinx: whats not stable about it?22:22
ecinxand any configurations22:22
ecinxmany things, when I installed kubuntu22:22
ecinxit booted the first time and then didn't work after22:22
ecinxnow I installed ubuntu, then kdestkop22:22
ecinxbefore installing kdesktop, under gnome or w/e it was it had it's quirks22:23
ecinxand now sometimes i need to restart twice before i can put a password on22:23
ecinxanyways that's not that important22:23
ecinxthe more problems i have, the more i learn22:24
James147ecinx: :) thats what I like about linux, problems are jsut a learning experence, unlike windows where they are just a problem22:25
ecinxyou mean the cryptic crash reports?22:25
ecinxwhich never gets a solution22:25
James147yeah22:26
ecinxhehe22:26
rtdoswhat's the difference between elinks and elinks-lite ?22:26
ecinxyou don't have to be a programmer to read something you might not understand but will give you a clue22:27
James147rtdos: i would guestt its feature set "-lite" having less ^^ to make its more lightweight22:27
ecinxwindows gives info that is probably referenced with something MS has internally22:27
James147ecinx: ^^ being a programmer dosent help in windows :p22:27
ecinxI know22:27
=== dawehner is now known as dereine
rtdoslooking into it more, james, thanks. :)22:29
James147rtdos: unless space is a major consern, then i would just suggest elinks eather then the -lite22:30

yofelthat should be 'sudo apt-get install --fix-missing' or just -f22:36
yofelah wait, -f was something else22:36
James147ecinx: try removing the reference to the cdrom in kpackagekit (or directly in /etc/apt/sources.list)22:36
ecinxi don't know how to do that22:37
yofelf was fix-broken22:37
James147ecinx: open kpackagekit > settings > edit origins ... remove the one forf the cdrom22:37

yofelecinx: ah, use 'kdesudo software-properties-kde'22:38
James147ecinx: then edit /etc/apt/sources.list and comment out the line for the cdrom22:38
yofelkpackagekit is known broken, use apt-get or muon for package management22:38

godosbut every time i must do that22:43
ecinxi tried to edit it with kate22:43

godosbecause it changes the resolution to an external monitor22:44
James147ecinx: "kdesudo kate /etc/apt/sources.list"22:44
=== jamie is now known as swordfish85
James147(kdesudo as you need root premissions to edit the file)22:44
ecinxkdesudo kate /etc/apt/sources.list22:45
ecinxNo protocol specified22:45
ecinxkdesudo: cannot connect to X server :0.022:45
James147ecinx: where are you typing teh commands? in konsole?22:46

ecinxsorry22:46
James147ecinx: ^^ try from krunner (alt+f2)22:47
ecinxyou can't tabcomplete directories there?22:47
James147ecinx: no, but you can copy paste :)22:47
James147or you can try a commandline editor like nano (sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list)22:48
ecinxdonee, now do i run 'sudo apt-get update --fix-missing' or sudo apt-get install--fix-missing22:49
ecinxi've read vim is pretty good22:49
ecinxi'll get to it when i have the time22:49
James147ecinx: i would "sudo apt-get update" then the fix missing one22:49
James147ecinx: i woudlnt recomand vim now... its takes a long time to learn :) ... but if your intrested it is worth while learning (sudo apt-get install vim ... vim it much better the the horribly vi << that will install it) i suggest running "vimtutor" when you want to learn it22:51
ecinxyeah i tried it22:51
ecinxit does take a long time to learn22:51
ecinxi tried vim tutor too22:51
ecinxbrain overload22:52
ecinxthe most important thing to me is kile22:52
James147ecinx: about a week to get use to it... 2-4 to become as fast with it as other editors, then any time after that you begin to love it :D22:52
ecinxI  ran the fix missng22:52
ecinxshould i restart?22:52
* James147 notes that kile has vim style input... although its not as good as the actual vim... and so does kate and kdevelop)22:52
ecinxor proceed to getting kile22:53
=== jamie is now known as swordfish85
James147ecinx: restart is usually unnneded22:53
James147ecinx: unless you ahve upgraded a kernel then just restart what was upgraded... although if your unsure, then a reboot wont hurt (well, at least it shouldnt hurt.. assuming you havent forgotten something)22:54
* James147 remembers the time he uninstalled grub and forgot to reinstallit again before a reboot...22:54
ecinxisn't kile kate withsome latex stuff on?22:55
ecinxapt-get install kile?22:55
James147ecinx: its kwrite with some latex stuff (kate is kwrite with some other stuff)22:55
ecinxahh22:56
James147ecinx: and yes, that should install it22:56
James147(well, kate is kwrite with konsole and some other stuff :D )22:56
ecinxare you familiar wiht kile?22:57
James147ecinx: unsed it once... then went back to vim :)22:57
ecinxoh22:57
ecinxcan't go wrong with vim once set up as you like22:57
James147at the time i found the ltex-suite plugin for vim mow to my taste... but now i dont use that any more but jsut vim + a makefile22:58
ecinxi heard it kinda suck22:58
ecinxit's very old22:58
James147it was alright, but it broak the :make command in vim, so i just went to pure Makefiles (since I only really used it for the compiling part... the code completion was nice but a bit weird)23:00
rysiek|plhi guys23:00
ecinxi'm an idiot, it takes me 2 seconds to move the mousepad to an icon when i can just touch the screen23:00
rysiek|planybody else experiencing KMail's CPU hogging during first few minutes after starting it up?23:00
James147ecinx: touch screen? nice :)23:00
ecinxtablet pc23:00
rysiek|pljust a vanilla Kubuntu here23:00
ecinxx20123:01
* James147 wishes he had one :(23:01
James147^^ btw how is kdes touch screen input?23:01
ecinxI whished i used the touch screen more it's valued at 250 US23:01
ecinxI don't know any of the KDE's touch screen feautres23:02
ecinxpinch zoom works in dolphin, and firefox23:02
James147ecinx: disable the mouse... then you will either only use the keyboard or learn to use the touch screen... both valid options in my opinion :D23:03
ecinxlol nice, but some stuff ill have problems with23:04
ecinxthings that are too smal like draggin windows and min, close, maximize23:04
AderlassHello23:04
AderlassJust installed kubuntu and wonder, what the su pass is?23:04
ecinxI think when you "touch that area it should do a zoom on that part of the window so you can select what ou want23:04
ecinxwhile kile is still installing i have some other questions23:05
ecinxHow can i do auto braces {}23:06
ecinxand put me inside the braces23:06
kaddiis there a way to list installed packages on a system if I'm accessing it from a live-cd?23:06
James147ecinx: try playing with the widgets on plasma-desktop23:06
James147Aderlass: there is non, use sudo <command> to run a command as root23:06
James147Aderlass: its not advised, but you can use "sudo -i" to login as root23:06
ecinxHow can i exit braces by using the enterkey23:06
James147ecinx: you can change the size of the titlebar in system settings23:07
AderlassJames147 Can i create a su and use my login only as user, as in other distris? :) i liked that system23:07
ecinxi dont know where the widgets are23:08
James147Aderlass: creating a root passsword is highly not advised.... you can do anything you need via sudo or sudo -i ... but yes it is possible23:08
Aderlasshm okay. :)23:08
ecinxI have an icon on the upper right, when i click it says  + add widgets23:09
ecinxsomething shows in the bottom for < 1 second and goes away23:09
James147ecinx: that would be the add widget window ... not sure why its disapearing... try right clicking the desktop by where it appears then click add widgets (try to make it so the mouse will end over where the window will appear... probally a focus thing...)23:11
ecinxrightclick add widget worked23:11
ecinxwhat widget do you recomend23:15
James147ecinx: it depnds on what you want... play with them and you will find ones you like23:16
ecinxin windows i used autohotkey23:21
ecinxto do {}23:21
ecinxi did a hotstring ,br to do {} and put me in the brace23:21
ecinxthen someone wrote a script for me to check of } is  to the right of the cursor and when that happens 'enter' key does 'right' arrow23:22
James147ecinx: i know kate has an auto bracer plugin, although i havent tryed it yet... kile might have the same (if it has plugings)23:23
ecinxyes it has kates auto brace23:23
ecinxbut it's really made for programming23:23
ecinxin my vbox i tried to use autohotkey but it didn't work23:26
ecinxhmm. i see three versoin of it in synaptic23:27
ecinxcommon, gtk+ , and qt what's that?23:27
James147gtk+ is the toolkit gnome uses, qt is the toolkit kde uses23:29
James147common is probally needed by both23:29
ecinxso i have to do apt-get install autokey-qt23:30
James147ecinx: note that in kde you can set up input actions to auto type stuff for you23:30
ecinxand apt-get install autokey-common?23:30
ecinxhow can i do that?23:30
ecinxwoo, i think kile is done23:31
James147^^ see the system settings > shortcut and gestures > custom shortcuts23:31
ecinxkile seems to wrok fine :)23:32
AderlassI'm trying to set up wireless lan on my netbook (Lenovo S12 ION, Braodcom Ethernet/Wifi), enabled the Broadcom wireless Driver (I can choose between STA and B43, tried both) but i can't find any networks23:41
ecinxit doesn't accept hotstrings, just CTRL + a letter23:42
James147ecinx: ah, guess it wotn work then :P23:45
ecinxnope23:45
kleopatraHello i know that on port 34944 a server runs, how can i stop it?23:48
