| xjjk | hello, how is KDE 4.6rc1? | 01:03 |
| xjjk | digiKam/marble are broken for me in my 4.5.5 install on 10.10 | 01:04 |
| xjjk | wondering if I should just upgrade everything | 01:04 |
| james147 | xjjk: why use rc1? rc2 is out :) | 01:04 |
| xjjk | james147: aha | 01:04 |
| xjjk | well, same question applies | 01:05 |
| xjjk | I remember trying one of the betas and being miserable with how much was broken | 01:05 |
| xjjk | power management in particular | 01:05 |
| Daskreech | xjjk: rc1 sucked rc2 is where it's at | 01:05 |
| james147 | whats broken about digikam? | 01:05 |
| xjjk | james147: well, marble specifically | 01:05 |
| xjjk | and apparently the marble kpart | 01:05 |
| xjjk | marble just crashes on startup, consistently | 01:05 |
| Daskreech | There are still some bugs but over all it's pretty nice I havn't found anything horribly broken except resuming from Sleep but that's the kernel's fault | 01:05 |
| xjjk | digikam if you try to view photo on top of OpenStreetMap | 01:06 |
| Daskreech | xjjk: With what error? | 01:06 |
| xjjk | diigkam crashes | 01:06 |
| xjjk | no error, seg11 | 01:06 |
| xjjk | sig11* | 01:06 |
| xjjk | I'm running some number of PPAs so I haven't bothered reporting a bug… I've had marble-related crashes before | 01:06 |
| james147 | ^^ sorry dont use that part of digikam :) but the rest of rc2 will stable enough to me... | 01:06 |
| james147 | so might be worth upgrading to see, or you could try it in a vm | 01:07 |
| xjjk | mm, well the parts that broke for me before were power management | 01:07 |
| xjjk | which I can't test in a VM | 01:07 |
| xjjk | powerdevil/whatever replaced it was very messed up in 4.6b1 | 01:08 |
| Daskreech | xjjk: run it from the konsole | 01:08 |
| james147 | umm yeah :p... been running rc2 fine on my netbook though, havent had any problems with powermanagment on that | 01:08 |
| xjjk | Daskreech: run what, digiKam? | 01:08 |
| Daskreech | xjjk: marble | 01:10 |
| xjjk | Daskreech: http://paste.ubuntu.com/556714/ | 01:10 |
| xjjk | not really useful... | 01:10 |
| xjjk | I could install the dbg packages but I don't think anyone cares since I'm using some odd mix of PPA packages | 01:11 |
| Daskreech | An essential tile is missing. Please rerun the application. | 01:11 |
| xjjk | it's easier to upgrade to 4.6rc2 and try that | 01:11 |
| Daskreech | that seems useful to me | 01:11 |
| xjjk | hrm, missed that | 01:11 |
| Daskreech | try rebuild your map cache I would guess | 01:12 |
| Daskreech | (this is in no way trying to stop you getting RC2) | 01:12 |
| xjjk | yeh, just nuked .marble | 01:12 |
| xjjk | still crashes | 01:12 |
| xjjk | with same error | 01:12 |
| xjjk | and, nevermind | 01:13 |
| xjjk | nuked the configs in .kde | 01:13 |
| xjjk | doesn't crash anymore | 01:13 |
| moses_ | is there a program that lets me turn off all the fancy effects for my kubuntu to save processing speed | 01:13 |
| xjjk | but it still crashes digiKam, blah | 01:14 |
| moses_ | or is there some kind of processing optimizer? | 01:14 |
| james147 | moses_: system settings > desktop effects | 01:14 |
| moses_ | i messed with those | 01:14 |
| moses_ | but theres this program called kwin | 01:14 |
| xjjk | Daskreech: yeah it consistently crashes when attempting to use OpenStreetMap | 01:14 |
| moses_ | and i cant open it | 01:14 |
| xjjk | deleting my marble config apparently just reset the default map | 01:15 |
| xjjk | to the lame globe | 01:15 |
| james147 | moses_: kwin is the window manager... it should already be running, if its not you have no control over your windows :) | 01:15 |
| Daskreech | xjjk: run digikam from the konsole? | 01:15 |
| moses_ | ok] | 01:15 |
| moses_ | but how can i make it minimal | 01:15 |
| james147 | ^^ desktop effects is handeled by kwin | 01:16 |
| james147 | you should be able to just turn them off via that settings page | 01:16 |
| xjjk | Daskreech: same error about an essential tile missing | 01:16 |
| Daskreech | xjjk: in Digikam? | 01:16 |
| xjjk | Daskreech: yes | 01:16 |
| Daskreech | ha. Might want to pop into Digikam and ask about that | 01:16 |
| Daskreech | sounds like a kwin issue? | 01:16 |
| xjjk | Daskreech: eh, I'm going to get told to upgrade | 01:17 |
| xjjk | which is why I'm asking about 4.6rc2 | 01:18 |
| Daskreech | xjjk: Doubtful but it's not a bad idea | 01:18 |
| xjjk | <#digikam> digikam 1.4, what? upgrade to 1.7! | 01:18 |
| Daskreech | xjjk: Rc2 should work fine but YMMV | 01:18 |
| Daskreech | it's really solid so far though | 01:18 |
| Daskreech | xjjk: To be fair many KDE devs are not like that unles they begged people not to use 1.4 for real work stuff | 01:19 |
| xjjk | Daskreech: can't hurt I guess, I'll ask | 01:19 |
| Daskreech | if it was known to be not the best release they will release it and say please find bugs. | 01:19 |
| xjjk | er, actually | 01:20 |
| xjjk | it's not a digikam problem, it's a marble problem... | 01:20 |
| Daskreech | That normally means a huge number of fixes between that and 1.7 so they will say please use that since we can't keep a track of all the fixes | 01:20 |
| Daskreech | xjjk: The marble problem crashes digikam? | 01:22 |
| xjjk | Daskreech: it appears so, yes | 01:22 |
| xjjk | selecting the OpenStreetMap map in either marble or in digikam's marble control causes both to crash | 01:23 |
| Daskreech | xjjk: oh then bug marble then :) | 01:26 |
| Daskreech | (so to speak) | 01:27 |
| Daskreech | while you upgrade to RC2 ;) | 01:27 |
| xjjk | does powerdevil/power management work with rc2? | 01:31 |
| xjjk | i.e. can I suspend with krunner | 01:31 |
| xjjk | and does the plasma applet work | 01:31 |
| xjjk | those were the main problems I had with b1 | 01:31 |
| james147 | xjjk: is working here | 01:32 |
| xjjk | james147: cool, I'll just upgrade | 01:32 |
| xjjk | and then debug from there | 01:32 |

| rtdos | how do i use kate to convert tabs to spaces? (the setting to convert tabs to spaces is ticked in the settings dialog but i already have a file that used tabs) | 04:25 |
| valorie | rtdos, in the past I've just used the replace/replace all function | 04:36 |
| valorie | type in a tab, and in the other however many spaces you want | 04:37 |
| valorie | works like a charm | 04:37 |
| Daskreech | Yeah there is a space to tabs entry though | 04:42 |
| rtdos | i've got that ticked already daskreech but wasn't sure if it would convert tabs to spaces after the fact. | 04:45 |
| rtdos | thanks valorie | 04:45 |
| rtdos | wow. | 04:47 |
| rtdos | i guess a ctrl+a followed by a ctrl+x followed by a ctrl+v does the same thing. amazing what you can find out by accident. :) | 04:47 |

| luis_ | hello everyone i like to ask you about KDE i am readin for Kubuntu10.10 that is has been done with kde4.5.5 but now they are working on kubuntu10.10 with kde4.6 is this correct? | 06:29 |
| luis_ | or they are just doing kde4.6 and then user will have to kubuntu10.10 choices? | 06:29 |
| luis_ | 2* | 06:30 |
| emonkey | they have the choice | 06:30 |
| luis_ | like kubuntu10.10 with kde4.5.5 and also kubuntu10.10 with kde4.6? | 06:30 |
| emonkey | but there will never be a 10.10 installation CD with 4.6 | 06:31 |
| luis_ | so right now the one available is kubuntu10.10 with kde4.5.5 right? | 06:31 |
| luis_ | oo | 06:31 |
| emonkey | you've to install it after | 06:31 |
| luis_ | so? how do you get kde4.6? | 06:31 |
| emonkey | are the packages released yet? | 06:31 |
| luis_ | there's a RC | 06:32 |
| luis_ | available as of 2011-01-07 | 06:32 |
| emonkey | there will be accessible through a repository if they will be packaged for 10.10 | 06:33 |
| emonkey | just like the packages fpr 4.5.5 http://www.kubuntu.org/kde-sc-4.5.5 | 06:33 |
| luis_ | but how do you make an upgrade on kde? | 06:33 |
| luis_ | i am just finding out this | 06:33 |
| luis_ | never knew it before | 06:33 |
| luis_ | well anyway | 06:34 |
| emonkey | it depends which upgrade do you mean ... just upgrade a program or kde to a newer version or the hole system .... | 06:34 |
| luis_ | kde | 06:34 |
| luis_ | te newest is kubuntu10.10 right | 06:35 |
| luis_ | ? | 06:35 |
| emonkey | yes | 06:35 |
| luis_ | so that would be the whoe system | 06:35 |
| luis_ | whole* | 06:35 |
| emonkey | the next will be 11.4 which will be released in april | 06:35 |
| luis_ | jesus | 06:35 |
| luis_ | to fast | 06:35 |
| luis_ | well anyway | 06:35 |
| luis_ | few days ago somebody told me that kubuntu10.10 is lighter and faster than the former one is this true? | 06:36 |
| luis_ | cause i do still have hardy | 06:36 |
| emonkey | hm ... good question. | 06:36 |
| emonkey | and unfotunately for me it's now time to go to work ... | 06:37 |
| luis_ | and the reason is cause the karmic and lucid are too heavy for my pc and it slow down all aplications | 06:37 |
| emonkey | sorry, I'll hope you find the answers, but I've really to go. | 06:37 |
| luis_ | ok txs | 06:37 |
| luis_ | so some one else? | 06:37 |
| emonkey | oh yeah just one more thing: normally there not a lot of people awake in here on this time ... ;-) | 06:39 |

| luis_ | how do i know my hd capacity? can anyone tell mepls | 06:47 |
| luis_ | i just found that that kubuntu10.10 requieres a video VGA graphic card so if my desktop don't have that it means it won't work properly??? | 06:52 |
| DarthFrog | luis_: Kubuntu doesn't require that. Your system requires video capability to boot. | 06:53 |
| luis_ | what does that mean | 06:53 |
| luis_ | i am looking at kubuntu10.10 requirements and it does says that | 06:53 |
| DarthFrog | It means if you have a working system now, video wont'be a problem. | 06:53 |
| luis_ | i have hardy | 06:54 |
| DarthFrog | You'll be fine. | 06:54 |
| luis_ | the reason why i haven't install the other ones ... well i actually did, but with lucid and karmic my desktop slows down a lot | 06:54 |
| === GHH is now known as abc321 | ||
| DarthFrog | As for your hard dirve, use "Disk Utility" from your Menu/System. | 06:55 |
| luis_ | that's why i am not using the newer ones | 06:55 |
| luis_ | ok | 06:55 |
| luis_ | however someone told me that 10.10 is lighter and faster than the formers ones is this true? | 06:55 |
| DarthFrog | I don't know if Hardy had "Disk Utility" but it'll have something similar. | 06:55 |
| DarthFrog | I can't tell you that since my machine is has a 6 core processor and 8 gigs RAM. It'll run anything fast. :-) | 06:56 |
| luis_ | course it does :P | 06:56 |
| luis_ | not mine | 06:56 |
| DarthFrog | What do you have? | 06:56 |
| luis_ | i don't think we have that yet in here | 06:57 |

| DarthFrog | Ah. That's ancient alright. But in the '80s it'd be close to being a supercomputer. :-) | 06:58 |
| DarthFrog | Can you put more RAM in it? | 06:58 |
| valorie | heh, my 80s computer had 80k! | 06:58 |
| valorie | who needs more than that? | 06:58 |
| valorie | :-) | 06:59 |
| DarthFrog | valorie: Back then? Or now? :-^) | 06:59 |
| luis_ | well we are not in the 80's anymore | 06:59 |
| luis_ | and OS are developing faster | 06:59 |
| luis_ | and they do require more efficient machines | 07:00 |
| head_victim | Good afternoon, I will be attending a conference locally here in Australia and I was hoping to loop some promotional videos to showcase Ubuntu. To this end I was wondering if such a video exists for Kubuntu? | 07:00 |
| luis_ | that's why my concern about installing kubuntu10.10 i don't know if my computer will be fast and reliable with this new kubuntu | 07:00 |
| DarthFrog | Have you considered trying Xubuntu or Lubuntu instead of Kubuntu? Xubuntu uses Xfce instead of KDE and is much less demanding of system resources. | 07:01 |
| luis_ | i haven't hear lubuntu | 07:01 |
| valorie | DarthFrog: I think it's in the attic! | 07:01 |
| DarthFrog | !lubuntu | luis | 07:01 |
| ubottu | luis: 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. | 07:01 |
| valorie | Coleco ADAM | 07:01 |
| luis_ | xubuntu i have had and i don't like it at all | 07:01 |
| DarthFrog | head_victim: Sorry, I don't know of any. | 07:01 |
| valorie | luis, can you boot to a CD? | 07:02 |
| luis_ | mmm so that suppose to be lighter but also better than Xubuntu right? | 07:02 |
| valorie | or a USB? | 07:02 |
| luis_ | yes i can | 07:02 |
| head_victim | DarthFrog: yeah I thought there would have been a few of each but I'm struggling to find many at all, they're all "howto" screencasts rather than promotional material. | 07:02 |
| DarthFrog | luis_: I've never tried Lubuntu. | 07:02 |
| luis_ | me neither | 07:02 |
| luis_ | i have never hear about it | 07:03 |
| luis_ | first tiem | 07:03 |
| head_victim | luis_: Lubuntu is what I use on all my P4 machines and older. It's a good mix between features and speed. | 07:03 |
| luis_ | time | 07:03 |
| DarthFrog | head_victim: I wonder whether it might be worth emailing Canonical and ask? | 07:03 |
| luis_ | i see | 07:03 |
| valorie | heh | 07:03 |
| luis_ | sound nice | 07:03 |
| head_victim | DarthFrog: just have to find the right one | 07:03 |
| head_victim | email address that is | 07:03 |
| valorie | like Canonical would make a Kub. ad! | 07:03 |
| valorie | lol | 07:03 |
| head_victim | Well the ubuntu website has one of theirs but other than that I haven't been able to find anything really. | 07:04 |
| DarthFrog | head_victim: You can ask Riddell, either here or in #kubuntu-devel if you manage to catch him. He's the head honcho of Kubuntu. | 07:04 |
| luis_ | let me get this right, so base on what you just said Lubuntu is meant to be lighter but also with a nice desktop enviroment therefore lot better than Xubuntu? | 07:04 |
| DarthFrog | head_victim: But with you being in Oz and him in Blighty, I think you two might be out of phase. | 07:05 |
| head_victim | DarthFrog: I'll just leave a message | 07:05 |
| DarthFrog | luis_: What don't you like about Xfce on Xubuntu? | 07:05 |
| head_victim | Riddell: DarthFrog has volunteered you as someone who might know if any Kubuntu promotional videos exist that I can use at a conference to advertise Kubuntu. When you get this ping if you can please either PM any links you might know of or places that might be better to ask. | 07:06 |
| luis_ | it won't take my keyboard media and also i don't see any diference like being faster than kubuntu and desktop is not nice as well | 07:06 |
| head_victim | luis_: depends on what you call "better". To me is a lot lighter so if you're after lighter then it is "better" | 07:06 |
| DarthFrog | head_victim: LOL! Riddell doesn't know me from a hole in the ground. | 07:06 |
| head_victim | DarthFrog: well he might now ;) | 07:07 |
| luis_ | xubuntu lighter than Lubuntu? | 07:07 |
| DarthFrog | luis_: Well, it's like a lemon: you have to suck it to see if it's sour. :-) | 07:07 |
| luis_ | lol | 07:07 |
| luis_ | perfect answer | 07:07 |

| naftilos76 | it doesn't happen only in small files. It happens always. | 10:42 |
| Peace- | naftilos76: what i can say it's this : dolphin has a bug for little files (when coping lots of files) | 10:43 |
| naftilos76 | it doesn't happen when copying small or big files to an external hard disk. it only happens on flash memories | 10:43 |
| naftilos76 | well i am sure i have faced any problems with dolphin lately. i am using KDE 4.5.5 updated from backports | 10:44 |
| naftilos76 | i am NOT sure | 10:44 |
| Peace- | mmm | 10:44 |
| Peace- | could be dolphin | 10:45 |
| naftilos76 | dolphin seems pretty stable... | 10:45 |
| Peace- | naftilos76: you could try to install enlightment | 10:45 |
| naftilos76 | well i can't say for sure | 10:45 |
| Peace- | and try with it's filemanager | 10:45 |
| Peace- | i guess it's only 18 mega xD | 10:45 |
| Peace- | for a DE | 10:45 |
| naftilos76 | this is a workstation in my business! there is no way i will spend time doing that extensive changes! | 10:46 |
| Peace- | abc321: i remember on the kdm widnows there are option | 10:46 |
| naftilos76 | KDE has matured enough! | 10:46 |
| Peace- | abc321: i guess there is konsole login too | 10:46 |
| Peace- | i guess i didn't remember well | 10:46 |
| Peace- | naftilos76: yes but there are still some problems | 10:46 |
| Peace- | as one could aspect for a rewrited DE | 10:47 |
| naftilos76 | Peace: i am sure there are and will be...I just hope that they will stay very well hidden that none will encounter them :-) | 10:47 |
| abc321 | !option | Peace- | 10:48 |
| abc321 | lol | 10:48 |
| Peace- | abc321: there should be an arrow or something i guess there is konsole login | 10:49 |
| Peace- | but still i can't understand why you want a konsole login :S | 10:49 |
| Peace- | to check where kernels hangs i wll press ALT f1 when kenrel starts | 10:50 |
| abc321 | Peace-, If you console login then you will see everything (debug) | 10:58 |

| Peace- | yea | 11:47 |
| ct529 | Peace-: exactly | 11:47 |
| Peace- | i had this issue too | 11:48 |

| Exposure | i'm trying a dist-upgrade but I get a 404 on some of the packages... what to do? | 16:01 |
| james147 | Exposure: you should try chaning your mirror | 16:02 |
| james147 | changing ^^ | 16:02 |
| tsimpson | make sure you run "sudo apt-get update" before going through the upgrade process | 16:03 |
| Exposure | ok that works | 16:04 |
| Exposure | so the nl.archive.ubuntu.com is out of sync since yesterday | 16:04 |
| GHH | Exposure, Can you help me for root login please? | 16:06 |
| tsimpson | GHH: use "sudo -H -i" to get a root shell | 16:07 |
| james147 | GHH: why do you want to login as root? | 16:07 |
| GHH | tsimpson, Not shell but from login window | 16:09 |
| Exposure | just press ctrl-alt-f1 | 16:09 |
| tsimpson | you can't | 16:09 |
| tsimpson | and shouldn't | 16:09 |
| james147 | Never login to a gi as root | 16:09 |
| james147 | gui ^^ | 16:09 |
| Exposure | lets not decide that for him | 16:09 |
| tsimpson | it's explicitly disabled | 16:10 |
| Exposure | it works for me | 16:10 |
| james147 | Exposure: ^^ its a really bad idea... and there is NO reason for it other then to break your system | 16:10 |
| Exposure | but maybe it won't once the dist-upgrade is finished :P | 16:10 |
| tsimpson | if you think you need to login as root, you're doing something wrong | 16:10 |
| * james147 agrees | 16:11 | |
| Exposure | well i really don't like this direction (k)ubuntu is taking | 16:11 |
| Exposure | linux has always been about giving free choice to users | 16:11 |
| === Muzer is now known as MuzerAway | ||
| GHH | tsimpson, I need to configure something] | 16:11 |
| tsimpson | you can disable the restrictions, but that's just making bad things happen | 16:11 |
| james147 | GHH: what? there are other ways of doing it | 16:11 |
| tsimpson | GHH: why do you think you need to login as root for? | 16:12 |
| james147 | tsimpson: is it disabled in kubuntu or kde by default? | 16:12 |
| tsimpson | most display manages disable it by default | 16:13 |
| tsimpson | and if you enable it, root can't login by default anyway | 16:13 |
| tsimpson | as it has no password | 16:13 |
| GHH | tsimpson, a lot of thing | 16:13 |
| GHH | I also set the root password | 16:13 |
| GHH | I can use su but i need minimum only for 1 time the root login | 16:13 |
| === MuzerAway is now known as Muzer | ||
| tsimpson | why do you need to _login_ as root? | 16:14 |
| tsimpson | rather than just switching to root? | 16:14 |
| james147 | GHH: what are you trying to do? | 16:14 |
| james147 | GHH: also... its not advised to enabled a root password... if you need a root shell use "sudo -i" | 16:14 |
| === GHH is now known as abc321 | ||
| abc321 | tsimpson, Even i do not know how to login as root from GUI window then what is the benefit | 16:21 |
| abc321 | then should i not learn it? | 16:21 |
| tsimpson | you never need to login as root, that's why sudo and kdesudo exist | 16:21 |
| james147 | abc321: what are you trying to achieve? we can tell you how you should be doing it ^^ | 16:22 |
| abc321 | thats mean, Impossible it for ever? | 16:22 |
| === Aranel_ is now known as Aranel | ||
| Exposure | its not impossible there's just no good reason to do it | 16:23 |
| james147 | abc321: ^^ and so we dont want to tell you with out a really good reason to as it is a really bad idea | 16:23 |
| james147 | and there is a almost certinaly a better way to do what you want | 16:24 |
| tsimpson | allowing login as root decreases the security of your system, and allowing GUI logins as root decreases it further | 16:24 |
| abc321 | tsimpson, I know | 16:25 |
| james147 | abc321: then what are you trying to do? | 16:25 |
| abc321 | It will be easy for me to configure my some personal thing' | 16:26 |
| james147 | ... | 16:26 |
| abc321 | yeah | 16:27 |
| tsimpson | you're personal things? | 16:27 |
| tsimpson | *youre | 16:27 |
| abc321 | It is not mean that i will login every time | 16:27 |
| abc321 | Yeah it is personal | 16:27 |
| tsimpson | what personal settings can you configure as root that you can't configure as your normal user? | 16:28 |
| james147 | abc321: still dont see any reason for it... just use sudo and kdesudo | 16:28 |
| Merbo | hello | 16:31 |

| tsimpson | there are Kubuntu specific instructions there too | 16:32 |
| BluesKaj | Merbo, you can upgrade thru the internet by: sudo do-release-upgrade , but make sure any ppas are removed from your sources.list or package manager | 16:35 |
| tsimpson | BluesKaj: the upgrade manage will remove the PPA entries | 16:36 |
| tsimpson | and any other 3rd party sources it finds | 16:36 |

| Merbo | i get no updates, but I'm certain im on 10.04 | 16:39 |
| james147 | Merbo: you need to make sure you set it to check for normal releases and not LTS ones | 16:39 |
| Merbo | how? | 16:39 |
| BluesKaj | Merbo, to find what OS version, lsb_release -a | 16:40 |

| Merbo | james147: http://paste.ubuntu.com/556881/ | 17:39 |
| * james147 is looking.. | 17:39 | |
| Merbo | good | 17:39 |
| Merbo | :3 | 17:40 |
| Merbo | it says it failed to read from the mirror | 17:40 |
| * james147 wonders if a reinstall would be quicker... | 17:40 | |
| Merbo | then it aborted | 17:40 |
| james147 | Merbo: hmm, try "dpkg --configure -a && sudo aptitude install -f" again then do-rel again | 17:41 |
| Merbo | i told it to select best mirror first | 17:42 |
| Merbo | james147: 50 Packages to be installed O.O | 17:45 |
| james147 | :s only 50? | 17:45 |
| BluesKaj | Merbo, run sudo apt-get clean | 17:45 |
| james147 | from which command? | 17:45 |
| Merbo | sudo apt-get clean didnt do anything | 17:46 |
| fibres | Evening all. | 17:46 |
| Merbo | hi | 17:46 |
| * james147 notes that 'dident do anything' and 'dident output anything' are two completely different things | 17:46 | |
| Merbo | i am sorry, didnt DISPLAY anything. | 17:47 |
| fibres | I wonder if anyone could help. Im trying to install 10.10. Soon as the x server loads all I get on screen is millions of black and grey lines. | 17:47 |
| james147 | fibres: what driver/graphics card? | 17:47 |
| fibres | Graphics card is a nvidia. I have not even been given option of selecting the drivers. | 17:49 |
| BluesKaj | fibres, how old is your pc ? | 17:50 |
| fibres | Im talking about when x loads on the install cd. | 17:50 |
| fibres | The pc is 2 years old ish. Its a intel quad core. | 17:50 |
| BluesKaj | maybe the burn was corrupted | 17:51 |
| fibres | Well I have now tried both the 32 and 64 bit versions of mythbuntu and now the 32 bit version of kubuntu and all do the same. Its really weird. | 17:54 |
| === AndrewMC` is now known as AndrewMC | ||
| Peace- | fibres: could be a kernel panic | 17:58 |
| Peace- | fibres: as well as a bad iso image | 17:58 |
| Merbo | fixed it myself. | 17:59 |
| Merbo | thank yo | 17:59 |
| fibres | Well its weird. If I do a crtl-print scr-k the x server reboots, the screen goes blank for a few secs then it comes up same again. To me that says isnt a kernel panic. | 17:59 |
| james147 | the open source nvidia drivers might not like your card ^^ | 18:00 |
| Peace- | fibres: other distro have you tried? | 18:00 |
| Peace- | of course could be the open drivers | 18:00 |
| fibres | Peace-: I have had linuxmce which is based on ubunto 0810 I think working ok out of the box. | 18:01 |
| Peace- | fibres: just to know | 18:01 |
| Peace- | but you have installed the sytem on the hd? | 18:01 |
| Peace- | or | 18:01 |
| Peace- | you have just tried the livecd? | 18:01 |
| fibres | Peace-: I cant even get the cd to boot to the point of being able to install. | 18:06 |
| Peace- | fibres: ok it's a driver issue | 18:06 |
| Peace- | fibres: did you tried alternate cd? | 18:06 |
| Peace- | !alternate | 18:06 |
| ubottu | The Alternate CD is a classical text-mode install CD. It supports a wider range of hardware than the !LiveCD, and can also be used as an upgrade CD. Look for the alternate checkbox on the Kubuntu download page - See also !minimal | 18:06 |
| fibres | No I havent tried that yet. Ok ill give that a go. I have also downloaded 10.04 to see if that is any different | 18:07 |
| Peace- | fibres: guess is the drive man | 18:07 |
| Peace- | but i am not pretty sure | 18:07 |
| Peace- | if you believe it's only a driver issue but the kernel is running | 18:07 |
| Peace- | i will try to install with altenate cd | 18:07 |
| Peace- | but... afterthat you could get the same problem | 18:08 |
| Peace- | but using the recovery mode you could get the konsole at least | 18:08 |
| Peace- | and try to install another video driver... | 18:08 |
| fibres | I think its the driver or its sending out wrong resolution/refresh rate. Just dont know how to change. Ill try 10.04 see if that has any more luck. | 18:08 |
| Peace- | anyway it's a pain | 18:08 |
| fibres | Ok. I thought it would be pretty much plug and play. Never had issues with limux on this box before. | 18:08 |
| Peace- | fibres: if you can pick your old xorg.conf | 18:08 |
| fibres | Um not sure if I have that. | 18:09 |
| Peace- | fibres: locate xorg.conf | 18:09 |
| Peace- | on konsole | 18:09 |
| Peace- | should find out | 18:09 |
| Peace- | it | 18:09 |
| Peace- | xD | 18:09 |
| BluesKaj | fibres, or your cdrom isn't reading properly | 18:10 |
| Peace- | fibres: could be the iso image corrupted as well said from BluesKaj | 18:11 |
| Peace- | !md5 | 18:11 |
| ubottu | To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows | 18:11 |
| * james147 still thinks its a driver issue... he has seen similar things on some nvidia cards (mostly modile ones) with the new open drivers | 18:12 | |
| * james147 and suggests trying to install the closed ones useing jockey-text or installing nvidia-current from the repos on a tty, | 18:13 | |
| james147 | ^^ (assuming you have a net connection) | 18:13 |
| Peace- | xD | 18:13 |
| james147 | hmm... rekonq dosent want to close :S (reopens stright away) | 18:14 |
| james147 | thats better :) | 18:15 |
| * Peace- use chromium but it's heavy | 18:15 | |
| Peace- | james147: anyway... sudo apt-get install webkitkde | 18:15 |
| Peace- | and use konqueror xD | 18:15 |
| * james147 switches between chromium and rekonq... prefures the kde intergration of rekonq but the better stability/polish of chromium... | 18:16 | |
| Peace- | james147: mmm have ytou a bug kde account? | 18:16 |
| * james147 dosnt like konqueror for some reason | 18:16 | |
| * Peace- which one ? | 18:16 | |
| Peace- | xD | 18:16 |
| james147 | ^^ kill it and it seems to be working now :) | 18:16 |
| ubuntu_ | hello i need a litlle of help here, i need to install kubuntu, but always i did the partition with gparted, now here in kubuntu i dont know wichk program use to make a good partition??? | 18:19 |

| james147 | ubuntu_: partitionmanager ^^ is basically kdes version of gparted | 18:21 |
| ubuntu_ | ohhh ill try it thanks | 18:21 |
| * james147 has never used partition magic... | 18:21 | |
| Peace- | james147: xD | 18:22 |
| * Peace- note that partitionmanager is on system settings too | 18:24 | |
| james147 | ^^ assuming its been installed | 18:24 |
| * DarthFrog still has Partition Magic 1.0 from way back in his OS/2 days. :-) Great program at the time. | 18:30 | |
| * Peace- at the time ... | 18:32 | |
| Peace- | xD | 18:32 |
| isaias | hi again, look in ubuntu and xubuntu i had the synaptic package manager, but here in kubuntu not, why? | 19:09 |
| lagerimsi | there is one in the system settings | 19:10 |
| isaias | which?? | 19:11 |
| lagerimsi | under system administration | 19:11 |
| isaias | do you know the name? | 19:12 |
| DarthFrog | Package Manager | 19:13 |
| lagerimsi | :) | 19:13 |
| isaias | i got one called Kpackgekit, i dont think thats the one | 19:14 |
| DarthFrog | Or kpackagekit | 19:14 |
| DarthFrog | Yes it is. | 19:14 |
| DarthFrog | Package Manager is synaptic. | 19:14 |
| isaias | pkpackagekit looks different from synaptic | 19:15 |
| DarthFrog | synaptic is GNOME/Gtk, KPackageKit is KDE/Qt. | 19:16 |
| isaias | other question ive just installed kubuntu 10.10 but until now there is nor messahe about updates, why is that | 19:17 |
| isaias | ohhh | 19:17 |
| Peace- | isaias: on kde dock there is search | 19:17 |
| Peace- | search | 19:17 |
| Peace- | pack | 19:17 |
| isaias | i didnt know that about gtk and Qt | 19:17 |
| Peace- | isaias: well you have to go on kpackagekit check refresh | 19:18 |
| Peace- | and it should get the list of upgrades | 19:18 |
| isaias | o yes KPackage is like synaptic i can see now | 19:18 |
| isaias | jejeje | 19:18 |
| isaias | thanks to all, if i have a question ill ask again thanks ;-)))) | 19:20 |

| james147 | el2ro: you have lost sudo access or access to your acount? | 20:31 |
| el2ro | james147: lost admin group from my account | 20:32 |
| james147 | el2ro: well, if holding shift dosent work, try holding esc, or tapping it :) | 20:32 |
| DarthFrog | el2ro: Boot from a LiveCD and edit the groups file. | 20:33 |
| james147 | el2ro: if all else fails, boot a livecd and edit... ^^ what DarthFrog said | 20:33 |
| DarthFrog | :-) | 20:33 |
| el2ro | ok, have to go with those.... thx | 20:33 |
| YuraDoc | Hello | 20:51 |
| YuraDoc | I had install kubuntu 10.10 on wmware player. I can't run desktop effects | 20:52 |
| YuraDoc | does anybody know why? | 20:52 |
| james147 | ^^ that isn't surprising | 20:53 |
| YuraDoc | why? | 20:54 |
| Peace- | xD | 20:54 |
| YuraDoc | i had set checkbox to use 3d accelarator in wmware | 20:54 |
| Peace- | did you try to activate them ? | 20:54 |
| Peace- | anyway i have to go | 20:54 |
| james147 | can vmware do direct rendering? ... i know virtualbox can | 20:54 |
| Peace- | james147: guess it can | 20:55 |
| Peace- | guess | 20:55 |
| Peace- | i never used | 20:55 |
| Peace- | night | 20:55 |
| YuraDoc | so it's not possible run effects through wmware? | 20:56 |
| james147 | YuraDoc: might be.. dont know... never used it, you could try virtualbox, i know that works | 20:56 |
| YuraDoc | thanks | 20:57 |
| james147 | ^^ but vms have never been that great for hardware acceleration | 20:58 |
| YuraDoc | ok, but i thought that wmware is the most cool for vitalization | 20:59 |
| james147 | ^^ i like virtualbox better | 21:00 |
| YuraDoc | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1327208 | 21:10 |
| YuraDoc | XRender option works | 21:10 |
| YuraDoc | but how i could turn it on | 21:10 |
| YuraDoc | ? | 21:10 |
| YuraDoc | I had change to Xrender and disable Vsync | 21:18 |
| YuraDoc | does abybody now what is vsync? | 21:18 |
| YuraDoc | it starts working in such config | 21:19 |
| Tm_T | vsync means that drawings are synced with display refresh rate (yes, patience is virtue) | 21:21 |

| dereine | cool feature | 22:15 |
| chris_osx | thanks a lot guys | 22:22 |
| Snowhog | JontheEchidna: Thank you Jon. I doubt anyone has ever had a bug report replied to and fixed as quickly as you did. | 22:40 |
| renjithg | hai | 22:47 |
| suqa | Could somebody try to help me with some easy stuffs? Got to find out witch drivers who works and those who isn't. | 22:49 |
| yofel | drivers for what device? | 22:49 |
| suqa | All hardware in the computer. | 22:51 |
| james147 | !details | suqa | 22:51 |
| ubottu | suqa: Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..." | 22:51 |
| suqa | Like windows "device manager". | 22:51 |
| james147 | suqa: as far as I know there isent anything like that in linux... and its not as simple as that | 22:52 |
| james147 | suqa: what exactly are you having problems with? | 22:52 |
| === mitch_ is now known as Guest75873 | ||
| suqa | I installed ubuntu (assume that its almoust the same as kubuntu) at my acer aspire 1362LC. Averything is slow and I think that the chipset isn't working as it is meant to do. | 22:54 |
| g0th | hi | 22:56 |
| g0th | how can I set individual backgrounds for each desktop instead of one background for all desktops? | 22:56 |
| james147 | suqa: you might want to ask in #ubuntu ... and say exactly what problem you are having... what is slow? describe it if you can... I dont see why it would be driver releated | 22:56 |
| g0th | when I watch a flash movie with firefox, the following can happen: whenever I switch to a different desktop I see a frame of the mentioned flash movie for about 2 seconds then the normal desktop "image" comes... | 22:56 |
| g0th | (those are two separate questions) | 22:56 |
| james147 | g0th: 1) System settings > Workspace behaviour > virtual desktop > Check "differnet widget for each desktop" | 22:57 |
| suqa | james147: Yes, but I've tried to ask there but there is so many people writing there so they wont notice my question. | 22:58 |
| g0th | ah thanks | 22:59 |
| g0th | you mean windows behaviour I guess but it worked :) | 22:59 |
| g0th | any idea for the second question? | 23:00 |
| james147 | g0th: heh, no i meant workspace :) but i am on kde 4.6, might have changed | 23:00 |
| james147 | g0th: not sure... cant seem to replicate it here (well, with rekonq, dont use firefox) | 23:01 |
| james147 | g0th: can you see if it happens with other browsers | 23:01 |
| g0th | I dont think so, but it is like once every 50 times | 23:02 |
| g0th | I dont have a way of reproducing it | 23:02 |
| g0th | only by try and error | 23:03 |
| james147 | g0th: you can also try changing the desktop switching animation | 23:03 |
| g0th | but it is very very annoying, each time I switch the desktop I first have to wait 2 seconds for the image to disapear | 23:03 |
| g0th | hmm good idea I try | 23:03 |
| g0th | yeah that worked :) | 23:04 |
| g0th | maybe it will fail again next time but it least it temporarly solves the issue | 23:04 |
| g0th | another question: when I press alt + tab it does not consistently run through the windows | 23:05 |
| g0th | when I keep alt pressed ofc it works | 23:05 |
| g0th | but if I press alt + tab, then again alt + tab etc | 23:05 |
| g0th | it does not go through everything | 23:05 |
| james147 | g0th: holding alt+tab here cicles through the windows :S... as for missing windows, are the missing windows on a different desktop/screen? | 23:06 |
| g0th | did you try to press alt + tab, then stop then press alt + tab again etc? | 23:07 |
| g0th | instead of keeping the alt key pressed down | 23:07 |
| james147 | g0th: o, that works as well | 23:07 |
| g0th | for me it just switches between two windows | 23:07 |
| g0th | if I have more than two windows it doesnt work | 23:08 |
| james147 | g0th: ahh, press alt+tab, then let go of tab and press tab again while still holding alt | 23:08 |
| g0th | yeah that works properly | 23:09 |
| g0th | but if I let alt go then it doesnt for me | 23:09 |
| james147 | ^^ or it seems to work the way you want if you change the sortorder to "stacking order" rather then "recently used" | 23:09 |
| g0th | ahh :) | 23:10 |
| g0th | I try to check where this settings is | 23:10 |
| g0th | it seems exactly like what I want (stacking order) | 23:10 |
| james147 | on kde 4.6 its at system settings> window behaviour > task switcher | 23:10 |
| james147 | g0th: ^^ from that window you can also chose to filter windows to "Current screen", "Current Desktop" ... etc | 23:12 |
| g0th | yes, thanks alot | 23:12 |
| g0th | :) | 23:12 |
| Derek_Roberts | Help with ar5007 wifi card please. | 23:27 |
| Derek_Roberts | Is there any Atheros wifi users in here. | 23:34 |
| james147 | !ask | Derek_Roberts | 23:35 |
| ubottu | Derek_Roberts: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 23:35 |
| Derek_Roberts | My problem is that my ar5007 card is registering as an ar5001 card in ubuntu. I believe that my driver is not working and i need to either reinstall or update. The driver is ath5k.\ | 23:36 |

| JontheEchidna | Snowhog: I beat my record of 1.5 hours with kde bug 259026 :P | 23:56 |
| ubottu | KDE bug 259026 in muon "Muon Software Center crashed when applying Adobe Reader install" [Crash,Resolved: fixed] http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=259026 | 23:56 |
| JontheEchidna | *2 hours, yours was 1.5 | 23:56 |
| JontheEchidna | it was a pretty obvious/small mistake, once I saw where the crash was happening. a lot of it had to do with it being the weekends, and me being home at the time | 23:57 |
| Snowhog | JontheEchidna: :) I am greatly impressed. I already know your dedication to Muon, and to those who use it. I'm looking forward to when the updated package comes in. | 23:57 |
| JontheEchidna | I plan on doing monthly bugfix releases for 1.1 | 23:58 |
| JontheEchidna | btw, I would be curious as to the output of "apt-cache show linux-headers-2.6.35-25-generic" | 23:59 |
| JontheEchidna | for curiosity's sake. dunno why it doesn't have a "supported" field showing how long the support period is | 23:59 |
