| James147 | HandyGandy: tests it with a new user | 10:13 |
| orzel | hi... since i've updated to maverick, kmail wont start. It complains about "kmail: error while loading shared libraries: libkontactinterface.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory" | 10:14 |
| orzel | i've tried updating/upgrading.. but that wont fix it. Then i've installed 'by hand' a package called libkontactinterface4, and now there's another missing dependancy "kmail: error while loading shared libraries: libakonadi-contact.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory" | 10:14 |

| eldowan | I have 10.10 installed, and had used network manager to setup my internet connection for my server. However, once I log the user out, the connection dies. Is there a way to disable this? If I make edit the /etc/network/interfaces file, will that work correctly? | 15:38 |
| BluesKaj | eldowan, ethernet? | 15:39 |
| eldowan | yes, wired ethernet | 15:39 |
| BluesKaj | ok eldowan , this may help: http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/setting-up-an-network-interfaces-file/ | 15:40 |
| BluesKaj | eldowan, also list all IPs on your network in /etc/hosts.allow file like this : ALL:192.168.x.x | 15:42 |
| === gary_ is now known as Guest88045 | ||
| eldowan | BluesKaj: cool. I'm familiar with the interfaces file, but I know network manager overwrites resolv.conf. I don't know if network manager also overwrites the interfaces file as well. | 15:43 |
| eldowan | That's a great link though, thanks for that. | 15:44 |
| BluesKaj | eldowan, remove network manager if you're going to rely on the interfaces file | 15:44 |
| BluesKaj | it will only interfere with your settings and cause probs | 15:45 |
| eldowan | BluesKaj: aah! thanks. I think thats exactly what I was looking for. | 15:45 |
| BluesKaj | eldowan, network manager is only good for the complexities required by wifi settings | 15:47 |
| eldowan | oh good grief. it really threw me for a loop until I recognized that the network died when my user logged off. :/ | 15:48 |
| BluesKaj | set the interfaces file in each pc / server on the network , eldowan | 15:49 |
| eldowan | BluesKaj: yeah, thanks for the reminder. I guess I should have set the interfaces file before I removed the network-manager | 15:50 |
| eldowan | aah, i'm a dumbass | 15:50 |
| BluesKaj | eldowan, just use ifconfig to find the IPs and route find the gateway IP and you should be ok | 15:50 |

| === Guest71180 is now known as RaNdY | ||
| === RaNdY is now known as Guest77100 | ||

| BluesKaj | eldowan, sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart | 15:53 |

| BluesKaj | j2daosh, which wifi chipset ? | 17:54 |
| j2daosh | atheros. i got it working on the gnome side. ill reboot in a little while and try kde, it probably just kept an authentication to a network that stopped working | 17:55 |
| === myth is now known as mythzib | ||
| BluesKaj | j2daosh, the atheros works quite well on kde and gnome afaik , but the enterprise is someting I'm not familiar with | 17:59 |
| j2daosh | well if it works on the gnome side, it should work on the KDE side, I will try it after i reboot into KDE later | 18:00 |
| BluesKaj | j2daosh, whynot just relogin rather than reboot | 18:01 |
| j2daosh | because im doing system updates that will require a reboot :D | 18:03 |
| BluesKaj | j2daosh, ok | 18:04 |

| Mad_Dud | Hi guys. can you suggest app for managing and reading ebooks? | 23:23 |
| Mad_Dud | something, which scans folder searching for new files, bookmarks... | 23:24 |
| dendrite | hello! im trying to setup dual displays on 10.10 with the nvidia drivers correctly installed. whenever I try to save changes to the xorg.conf file using the gui i get denied permission. Running 'sudo nvidia-settings' doesn't help either. Somehow on GTK this works with 10.10 | 23:37 |
| Torch | dendrite: it cannot work as a regular user, but you got that one already. | 23:41 |
| Torch | dendrite: it should, however, work with sudo | 23:41 |
| dendrite | it didn't | 23:42 |
| dendrite | same response. lack of privelages. | 23:42 |
| Torch | dendrite: what does ls -l /etc/X11/xorg.conf tell you? | 23:42 |
| Torch | dendrite: who owns the file? is it writable? etc. | 23:43 |
| dendrite | root | 23:43 |
| dendrite | should i just trying changing the ownership for a second? | 23:43 |
| Torch | dendrite: paste the output of that command please | 23:43 |
| Torch | (it's just one line, you can paste it here safely) | 23:44 |
| dendrite | -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 216 2011-01-19 17:52 /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 23:44 |
| Torch | dendrite: that's how it should be | 23:44 |
| dendrite | yea definately | 23:44 |
| Torch | dendrite: are you familiar with any shell editor? can you open the file with sudo <editor-of-your-choice> and just save it and see what happens? | 23:44 |
| Torch | (it should definitely work) | 23:45 |
| dendrite | yea what would you like me to see/change | 23:45 |
| Torch | dendrite: the editor saving the file without problems | 23:45 |
| Torch | dendrite: not making any changes, of course ;-) | 23:45 |
| dendrite | o. so do a test save of the file? to see if i can write to it? | 23:46 |
| Torch | dendrite: that's the plan | 23:46 |
| dendrite | sounds good. one sec | 23:47 |
| dendrite | yea no problems there | 23:47 |
| Torch | dendrite: well, strange. you can just save the new config to a file in your home dir in nvidia-settings | 23:47 |
| dendrite | ok i'll try that | 23:47 |
| Torch | dendrite: then copy that file to /etc/X11/xorg.conf with sudo | 23:48 |
| Torch | dendrite: that should work | 23:48 |
| dendrite | ah ok | 23:48 |
| Torch | dendrite: backup the old file | 23:48 |
| Torch | dendrite: before you overwrite it | 23:48 |
| dendrite | saving xorg.conf to my home directory isn't allowed either | 23:48 |
| dendrite | must be something with the gui | 23:49 |
| Torch | dendrite: hmm | 23:49 |
| dendrite | yea lol.. | 23:49 |
| dendrite | I *could* just manually edit xorg. but I need to look around to see how to setup dual monitors correctly | 23:49 |
| Torch | wait, that tool doesn't save an xorg.conf file, does it? | 23:49 |
| Torch | it saves an nvidia-settings rc file | 23:50 |
| dendrite | i was pretty sure it saved a xorg.conf file | 23:50 |
| === rtdos is now known as rtdos_AFK | ||
| === nhandler is now known as Guest64928 | ||
| Torch | dendrite: if you click on "save current configuration" (i assume that's what you do) | 23:50 |
| dendrite | torch: yes that's what i do | 23:50 |
| Torch | dendrite: you get a gtk save file dialog that suggests .nvidia-settings-rc as file name | 23:50 |
| Torch | dendrite: that's nothing to do with xorg.conf. that's for running the nvidia-settings tool at login | 23:51 |
| dendrite | hm. i'm not getting anything with nvidia-settings.rc | 23:51 |
| Torch | dendrite: ah, and there's "safe to X configuration file" under "x server display configuration" | 23:51 |
| Torch | dendrite: did you try that one? | 23:51 |
| Torch | dendrite: so you're actually trying that one? | 23:52 |
| dendrite | but i am able to see a preview of the xorg.conf file before i actually save it. I copied that to my clipboard and I'm just gonna to put in xorg with an editor | 23:52 |
| dendrite | yes i tried that one | 23:52 |
| Torch | dendrite: and then it complains it needs privileges? | 23:52 |
| Torch | dendrite: and asks for a password? | 23:52 |
| dendrite | no it just says it couldn't parse the "/etc/X11/xorg.conf" file or "/home/$USER/xorg.conf" | 23:53 |
| Torch | dendrite: hmm, aha | 23:53 |

| hmmmz | i need a bit of help or if someone can tell me if its not possible with this distro..im trying to install ubuntu server 10.10 from a usb stick but the installation halts saying it cant find the cd..any ideas how to fix this or should i give up now and try a diffrent distro ?? | 23:56 |
| dendrite | Torch: well it worked. copying the preview xorg.conf file into a new xorg.conf (after backing up original) seems to be working. now i have dual monitors yay! | 23:58 |
| Torch | dendrite: very good. | 23:58 |
| dendrite | just wish i didn't have to do all that. using the gui should be able to work as in gnome under 10.10 | 23:59 |
| Torch | dendrite: blame nvidia, not KDE | 23:59 |
| dendrite | yea. | 23:59 |
| Torch | dendrite: and you're right, of course. | 23:59 |
| Torch | dendrite: it absolutely should work | 23:59 |
