James147pulaski: when/if it gets fixed then yes00:00
pulaskiJames147: Thanks for the tip. I'm going to look around and see if I can find the bug report or somplace I can monitor progress on the bug. Can you offer a comment on doing this or should I even bother?00:07
James147pulaski: if you want to know the progress of the bug then finding the bugreport is worthwhile00:08
pulaskiJames147: Thanks again for your help this afternoon. I'll check back.00:10

cory_Can anyone help with CUPS?00:39
cory_I have been going through help pages for the past 3 hours and have yet to find a solution to my problem00:41
valoriecory_: state your question, and if anyone can help, they will00:42
cory_I just added a printer that is on my server to my client comuter, while it is recognized I keep getting a printer not connected error00:43
cory_...I can print a test page off the server but have no sucess on my client00:44

cory_idk, to my knowledge the firewall is just set to its defaults00:57
bucketheadcory_: Right. Drop it and then try.00:59
cory_k00:59
cory_@buckethead do you know the command to "refresh" the server I just disabled the firewall but it won't take effect until  I reboot and I do not really want to do that01:07
bucketheadrefresh?01:08
bucketheadWhich firewall are you using?01:08
cory_default01:09
cory_UFW01:09
buckethead'ufw disable' didn't just bring it down?01:09
cory_no01:09
cory_Firewall stopped and disabled on system startup01:10
bucketheadRight. That's fine.01:10
cory_so I do not need to reboot?01:10
bucketheadNo.01:10
bucketheadIt stopped it AND stopped it from coming up on start-up.01:11
cory_oh ic01:11
cory_still the same problem01:12
bucketheadYou've got "Share printers connected to this system" selected, right?01:13
bucketheadDoes CUPS on the client see the printer?01:14
cory_yes and yes01:14
bucketheadDo you have firefox installed? Try using a non-native kde app.01:15
cory_wait how to I make sure that "Share printers connected to this system " is selected?01:15
bucketheadOn the server?01:15
cory_I do not have a gui01:15
bucketheadHow are you accessing CUPS on the server?01:16
cory_using ssh01:16
bucketheadI'm not sure, I usually enable remote administration in the servers cupsd.conf and then hit the web server.01:17
cory_?01:18
bucketheadIf you go to the servers ip address on port 631, does the cups interface load?01:20
cory_yes01:21
bucketheadIf you go to administration, It's on the right column.01:22
bucketheadThat view access log selection might also be useful.01:23
bucketheadI've got to step away. Good luck.01:23

ecinxty both02:01
ecinxJames147:  I found out how to do snippets in emacs, and emacs also has abbrevs mode02:02
ecinxI didn't figure abbrevs out yet though02:02
ecinxbrb02:04
ecinxhmm02:08
ecinxI restarted irc and closed all the browser tabs and it still seems slow02:08
James147ecinx: is your cpu or ram full?02:09
ecinxI dont' think so02:10
ecinxirc was taking over 300MB02:10
ecinxand a lot of browsers, but i closed them02:10
ecinxthe biggest things now are kwin 57.6MB and Xorg 44.7MB02:10
James147ecinx: you could be io bound then, i would check to see if your useing your swap at all02:11
ecinxHow Do I do that?02:11
James147free -m02:11
James147ecinx: also, you could install and run "iotop"02:12

ecinxJames147:  ^^02:14
ecinxWhen I alt tab I can  flip through windows, sometimes I don't know what I do a bunch of windows come on the screen at the same time, like little thumbnails, I find that efficient especially wit the touch scrreen, how do I do that?02:15
James147ecinx: wow, you have allot of swap02:16
ecinxJames147: what does that mean?02:16
James147ecinx: you are currently using about 2gigs of memory ^^ that seems rather high02:17
James147(that is, swap + mem - buffers/cache, so i presume thats 2 gigs of programs)02:17
James147ecinx: install htop (its like top, but better, much better ;)  ) then run it and sort by mem%  (press > and select mem)02:18
ecinxIi'm going to upgrade to 8gb, but that doesn't mean i don't want to stay udner 1GB of used memroy02:18
James147ecinx: uneeded application memory is a waste... and you should be trying to start under about that if you not running that much... the rest of the ram should be filled with buffers and disk cache (programs and files that are no longer used but kept in the memory)...02:21
James147^^ and swap tends to just slow everything down if you have mroe then 1-2 gigs of ram02:21
James147ecinx: ^^ you could try disabling it (swapoff -a)02:21
ecinxand then turn it back on?02:21
ecinxwhen i installed ubuntu it suggested creating a swap for speed02:22
James147ecinx: yeah... that assumes you ahve no ram02:22
James147ecinx: I havent had a problem with having no swap on all my computers (all now have at least 2 gigs)02:22
ecinxswap in essense is a thing of the 90's02:23
ecinx?02:23
ecinxyeah all my comps have 2gigs + too02:23
James147ecinx: its needed for hybernation, and if you need more ram then you physically have...02:23
ecinxI like to hybernate :)02:23
ecinxthe batteries suck on this thing02:24
* James147 tends to shutdown... seems quicker to boot then resume from hyberantion..02:24
James147ecinx: cant you sleep?02:24
* James147 sleep dosent need swap02:24
James147^^02:25
ecinxthe battereis really suck, if im in a class room my pc dies out by the end of the period02:25
ecinxif not it's really low02:25
James147ecinx: ... hmm, well i suggest you try disabling swap for now with "swapoff -a" (swapon -a or a reboot will enable it again)02:26
James147see if it makes a difference02:26
James147(or makes things worst) ... also try to find out what applications are using all the ram02:26
ecinxi turned it off02:27
ecinxi ddin't get a new prompt, yet02:27
James147ecinx: if you want you can watch your memory usage with "watch free -m"02:28
ecinxactually let me reboot, remember we ugpraded KDE and i dind't reboot02:28

d3jakeI replaced my 30 (or forty, I forget which) gigabyte harddrive in my latop (Compaq NC6000) several weeks ago. On it I had two partitions, one for Windows XP, one Kubuntu 8.04. Since then I have purchased and installed a 80GB drive. I, again, installed Kubuntu and XP. This time I used a experimental version of Kubuntu called Trinity as I am one of the group that keeps ahold of KDE3. Unfortunately I have come to dislike Trinity on02:54
d3jakemany levels, and would like to find a way to copy over the contents of my old partition and overwrite my newer installation so it will be as if nothing had changed. I assume I can do this as no hardware in the equation has been changed, but I have no idea how. I was told by a friend that I could simply tar.gz all of my files on the old partition, and overwrite all of the new ones. Do you dolks have any idea how I could do this? Is the method I listed valid02:54
ecinxhttp://imagebin.org/13191502:56
ecinxJames147: That was before I restarted02:57
ecinxafter it unfroze02:57
James147d3jake: ^^ you should just beable to copy the contents of teh dirve over02:58
ecinxI conneccted an external monitor, how do i fix the resolution, if it's not listed02:58
James147d3jake: you may or may not need to edit /etc/fstab as well02:58
James147ecinx: you could try the xrandr command :)02:59
James147(though i dont know what options you need)02:59
ecinxit doesn't list the native resolution there03:00
d3jakeJames147: What is the /etc/fstab for, dare I ask?03:00
James147ecinx: what driver?03:00
James147d3jake: mounting drives at boot03:00
James147(or with mount -a)03:00
d3jakeJames147: Okay, thanks!03:01
ecinxI didn't install a driver for it03:01
James147ecinx: waht graphics card?03:01
ecinxI think it's intel HD graphics03:01
ecinxsomething like that03:01
James147ecinx: i think you should play with the --newmode option in xrandr03:02
James147or --fb option03:03
James147ecinx: btw, is your system any faster?03:05
ecinxi think the swap is back on03:05
ecinxlet me turn it off03:05
ecinxbut yes, i just restarted03:06
James147ecinx: you might find this useful https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq03:08
James147^^ note you can tell linux to not swap as much, which you probally want to do (then you can have swap enabled, but not have things swaped out so much.. see the swappiness section of the link)03:09

jadohi, how can i make my microphone work under kubuntu? do i need to install some drivers?10:29
jadoand more importantly, where can i test it? because right now i'm trying under ventrilo on wine10:31
aomegaxhi10:36
James147jado: first, make sure it isent muted, best way to do taht is run "alsamixer" in a terminal and check the capture devices (if you turn on the playback devices for the mic as well then it should echo to the speakers and let you test it)10:36
aomegaxi have problem with login (kubuntu 10.10 x86_64), after inserting user and pwd i don't allow to desktop but I see login page again10:37
jadoJames147: you're right it was muted :)10:37
James147aomegax: first: create a new user and see if you can log in with them,10:37
aomegaxI have reinstalled nvidia driver too, but anything10:37
aomegaxI can enter with console10:38
James147aomegax: alt+crtl+F1 to swtich to a vertual console, login then add a user with "sudo useradd -m -U USERNAME"10:39
aomegaxok...and after?10:40
James147(or adduser USERNAME)10:40
James147aomegax: add a password for the user (sudo passwd USERNAME)10:41
James147aomegax: then alt+ctrl+f7 to switch back to the gui and try to login with them10:41
aomegaxok10:41
aomegaxit works10:42
James147aomegax: then that suggests that there is something wrong with a config file in your home directory10:43
aomegaxmmm10:43
aomegaxbut yesterday all work!10:43
aomegaxnow...if i delete .kde?10:44
James147aomegax: first check to see if you own all your own files :)10:44
James147aomegax: may or may not work, and isent advised to just delete it10:45
James147aomegax: you can try renaming it first, if it works thereafter then the problem is inside .kde10:45
James147if not then its outside10:45
aomegaxreneming kde doesn't work10:47
James147aomegax: then rename it back :)  try running "ls -lR ~ | grep -v USERNAME | grep -v total | grep -v ^$" ... see if it outputs anything (replacing USERNAME...)  it should list all files not owned by you10:48
aomegaxok10:50
aomegaxhow can  i see more page?10:51
aomegaxls -lR --less...?10:51
James147aomegax: :S wasent expecting there to by many lines... but add " | less" to the end to pipe it to less10:52
aomegaxok :)10:52
aomegaxok there are only images10:52
aomegaxthat are of www-data user10:53
* James147 wonders why you dont own all the files in your home.... might want to do a "sudo chown -R USER:USER ~" << that will make all files in your home owned by you10:54
James147^^ or not if they are ment to be owned by www-data :)10:54

aomegaxJames147: where is it?11:29
James147~11:29
aomegaxJames147: there isn't11:30
James147aomegax: hmm... not entirly sure what else to do rather then randomly renaming config files in ~ :S11:31
James147aomegax: one approch is to move all config files to somewhere like ~/configs  ... then try to log in, you can then try moving them back bit by bit untill you cant login, then thats probly the file :)11:32
aomegaxJames147:  mmm...where are config file? in which folder?11:34
aomegaxJames147: ~/.config?11:34
James147aomegax: config files tend to start with a . (makes them hidden) and normally in your home directory... .kde .config .local are where some applicaitons tend to group them11:34
James147^^ and you will not want to mode .bashrc or .profile...11:35
James147move ^^11:35
aomegaxJames147: should I move to backup all .FOLDER?11:35
James147aomegax: ^^ dont need to move them to a ihdden folder, can just put them in ~/backup  or ~/configs or something11:37
aomegaxJames147: can I do: sudo mv .* ~backup/ ?11:38
James147aomegax: no, that will match everything (. expands to a single character and * matches 0 or more, so .* matches 1 or more characters)11:40
* James147 is looking for a way around that :)11:40
James147^^ or maby it will work :S cp seems to treat it differently then mv11:42
aomegaxJames147: ok I have moved all . in  backup/...now can I login?11:47
James147aomegax: make sure you keep .bashrc and .profile11:47
James147then try to log in11:47
aomegaxJames147: when i log in an alert appears: "kstartupconfig4 does not exist or fails. the error code is 3. check" when I do ok it goes to login page again11:51
James147aomegax: whats the output of ls -la?11:55
aomegaxJames147: I have all my folder and .bashrc and .profile (own by aomegax)12:09
aomegaxJames147: now I have added .kde too... ook?12:09
James147aomegax: but you still cannot log in?12:09
aomegaxJames147: only with .bashrc and profile i have error with kstartupconfig12:10

James147Hello kayleigh16:41
Bauldrickhmmm, need help getting kubuntu to 'see' other devices on my network.... I have multiple samba shares on different devices (Ubuntu, Debian, Wind...), none of which show up (they show up from other devices). Also  a Soundbridge I presume should show up under network services (zeroconf). iptables has no rules, but it's like something is blocking ..16:41
kayleighhow ya doin?16:41
aomegax_James147: so and so, now it works, now i must study so I test it after16:42
* James147 suggests to Bauldrick to make sure he can ping the other computers16:42
Bauldrickyeah, and ssh into them...16:43
shane4ubuntuok, the device notifier, is there a way to configure it to pop up and after 3 seconds disappear?  It pops up and just stays there.16:52
Bauldrickif i 'add network folder' and create one of said samba shares it connects fine, so kubuntu or whatever program can't search and see my devices properly i presume?16:52

phoenix_firebrdhow long will nepomuk take to index  580 gb, i cant say how may files are present, but mostly videos of sizes 700 Mb approx. , audio files of 5Mb~ and some software collection17:54
phoenix_firebrdcorrection, nepomuk=strigi17:54
phoenix_firebrdi am using kde 4.6 rc2 and strigi is using a lot of cpu and it keeps on running for past 2 days17:58

phoenix_firebrdJames147:hello James thats what i am worried about, other apps take only 1 or 2 hours, but 2 days is too much. right now i have disable file indexing18:02
phoenix_firebrdJames147: may be its a bug in strigi?18:02
James147phoenix_firebrd: probally, try deleting its settings to reset it... might help (or rename them)18:03
James147(and probally the index as well)18:03
phoenix_firebrdJames147: is the settings of strigi located at home/.kde ?18:05
James147o ... hmm, i think they are ... I think the index is in ~/.kde?share/apps18:05
phoenix_firebrdJames147:  there are some files in "/home/phoenix/.kde/share/apps/nepomuk/repository/main/data/virtuosobackend/" is it safe to delete those. i am afraid that may break the strigi18:09
James147phoenix_firebrd: you wont break it by deleteing files in your home directory, if anything you will fix it... anything that isent present when it next runs will be recreated using the default settings18:10
phoenix_firebrdJames147: ok, should i delete this "/home/phoenix/.kde/share/apps/nepomuk"            or    this  "/home/phoenix/.kde/share/apps/nepomuk/repository/main/data/virtuosobackend/"18:11
James147phoenix_firebrd: personally I would remove the nepomuk folder, let it start from scratch and hope the problems you where having where the result of a bad file... i would also look in ~/.kde/share/config  for its config files (apps tends to contain data,  and config the config files)18:13
phoenix_firebrdJames147: ya you are right , i found the config files at ~/.kde/share/config, i will delete all the nepomuk settings and see if that works18:15

precubcrJames147 thx ^^20:24
* James147 also notes that grimwepa looks like a java applicaiton... so all you really need to do is install openjdk and run "java -jar file.jar"... but it also looks like it uses aircrack... so you need that anyway...20:26
