[00:00] <bazhang> trudell, no, I mean what irc client are you using; quassel, xchat, irssi, or some other
[00:01] <trudell> now i'm using konversation, convencional
[00:02] <trudell> but if have better client program i can change
[00:02] <bazhang> trudell, okay, its been a long time since I used Konversation, they have some online documents you can consult I suppose. I use the more modern kde4 version irc client quassel
[00:03] <trudell> bazhang: so quassel is better?
[00:04] <trudell> bazhang: well, i will change. can i create a channel and be op and control the moderation like hre?
[00:05] <bazhang> trudell, sure, but you dont need to change irc clients to do that. ask in #freenode how to create your own channels
[00:09] <trudell> can you answer to me there?
[00:10] <bazhang> trudell, join the channel first
[00:11] <trudell> bazhang: I do not want to bore you. If you are busy i come another day.
[00:17] <james147> rtdos: why a telnet server? you should consider using an ssh server instead
[01:06] <lkp> hi, i have an acer aspire one d255 running kubuntu 10.04. the sound does not work. can someone plz help?
[01:10] <avihay> Hi, anyone knows how to fix kate's autocomplete?
[01:14] <rtdos> james147: it's for my local network only with no outside internet access.
[01:18] <james147> rtdos: still, ssh isnt really anymore complex to setup,
[01:19] <rtdos> just set the ports, correct, james147?
[01:21] <james147> rtdos: with ssh, all you need to do is install the server (openssh-server) and start the service (sudo start sshd  (or ssh)) then type "ssh <ip address of server>" on the client
[01:22] <rtdos> that's it ? thanks i'll check it out now.

[04:35] <nikhil_> can someone help me out with the power scheme not changing when one plugs in/unplugs a charger? something to do with acpi?
[05:21] <Rask> Hey all.  I'm running into an issue of mindblowing flicker trying to use Kubuntu... googling has led me to the issue with nVidia cards and powermizer, but it's telling me to put some lines in /etc/modprobe.d/options, a file which does not exist in 10.04.
[05:21] <Rask> http://www.ubuntusolutions.org/2009/02/screen-flickering-with-nvidia-on-ubuntu.html
[05:21] <Rask> I tried sticking them into flickerfix.conf per an ubuntu wiki article I found, but the flicker problem still exists and I've no way to tell whether it's because the lines weren't picked up or because they were and didn't help.
[05:22] <Rask> Anyone have any ideas?  This is the sixth time in a decade or so that I've said "this is it, I'm going to do it, I'm going to become a linux user" and every single time I've run into a debilitating issue that keeps me on Windows, and I'm really starting to believe I'm cursed. :(
[05:44] <Rask> ...Anyone?
[05:44] <Rask> This is seriously driving me nuts.  There are other solutions that seem to achieve the same end that involve editing xorg.conf, but... of course, there is no xorg.conf anymore.
[06:00] <Daskreech> Rask: hi
[06:00] <Daskreech> Rask: If you just make a xorg.conf it will read from it
[06:01] <Rask> Yeah, but I can't figure how to make that fix work... it requires inserting a line into a paragraph that's already talking about your video card
[06:02] <Rask> the xorg.conf fix looks more questionable than the modprobe one anyway... can we look back at that one?  Basically I'm trying to add a couple 'option' lines to /etc/modprobe.d/options or its equivalent in 10.04.  I'm led to understand by the manpage that the equivalent thing here is just to create any old .conf file in /etc/modprobe.d/ so I've done this but it doesn't appear to work.  Is there a way to know whether the files have been read proper
[06:13] <Daskreech> Rask: What's inside of modprobe.d ?
[06:14] <Rask> alsa-base.conf, a bunch of blacklist*.conf files, and my seemingly not-working nvidia.conf
[06:39] <Cory69> hello
[06:41] <Daskreech> Rask: Sorry back and forth
[06:41] <Daskreech> what's in nvidia?
[06:42] <Rask> http://www.ubuntusolutions.org/2009/02/screen-flickering-with-nvidia-on-ubuntu.html
[06:42] <Rask> The lines in there
[06:42] <Rask> but
[06:42] <FloodBotK1> Rask: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[06:42] <Rask> This just in, I am apparently not using a driver called nvidia.
[06:42] <Rask> ... Okay, wasn't flooding.  >.>;
[06:43] <Rask> Anyway, I installed nvidia-current and tried to modprobe it, and it said "no such device".
[06:43] <Rask> Which is somewhat confusing, because I know (and lspci knows) that I do have an nVidia card.
[06:43] <Daskreech> lsmod
[06:44] <Rask> What am I looking for?
[06:44] <Daskreech> nvidia
[06:44] <Rask> Not there
[06:44] <Daskreech> or nv
[06:44] <Rask> Not there either
[06:44] <Daskreech> pastebin please
[06:45] <Rask> There is "nouveau", which I'm led to understand is the open-source nvidia driver
[06:45] <Daskreech> ah yes it is
[06:45] <Rask> I can't really pastebin, I'm on a different compy here and on a text terminal there
[06:45] <Daskreech> is that text terminal connected to the internet?
[06:46] <Daskreech> apt-get install pastebinit
[06:46] <Rask> Well, I -can-, but it's highly cumbersome :)  If you still need it, I guess I can do it, but it's not to be treated lightly (:
[06:46] <Daskreech> lsmod | pastebinit
[06:46] <Rask> hm, interesting
[06:46] <Daskreech> it will upload it to pastebin for you
[06:47] <Daskreech> very few things are really cumbersome :)
[06:47] <Rask> Oh poo.
[06:47] <Daskreech> It's noveau in anycase
[06:47] <Rask> Heavy load warnng
[06:47] <Rask> warning*
[06:47] <Daskreech> from pastebin?
[06:47] <Rask> Yes
[06:49] <Rask> Well, anyway
[06:49] <Daskreech> ah it's ok
[06:49] <Daskreech> I don't really need to see it now anyway
[06:49] <Rask> nouveau is currently doing the job, but I dunno if it takes the same params as nvidia
[06:49] <Rask> If it does, I can try that, but how do I find that out?
[06:54] <Daskreech> Rask:  http://jimmod.com/blog/2010/06/solving-fixing-ubuntu-10-04-lucid-screen-flickerdistortion/
[06:54] <Daskreech> try that
[06:56] <Rask> I don't have an i915 chipset. o.o
[07:00] <Rask> also, I'm starting to lose faith that this fix I've been pursuing with regard to powermizer is the right one... I do not have compiz running, and they say that that's what causes the problem they're fixing :/
[07:00] <Daskreech> Rask: It's a power setting
[07:03] <Rask> Oh well, what can it hurt
[07:03]  * Rask tries
[07:04] <Daskreech> \o/
[07:07] <Rask> ...Wow.
[07:07] <Rask> Okay, moving the selection bar in GRUB makes things flicker
[07:08] <Rask> ugh
[07:09] <Rask> I am about to give up
[07:09] <Daskreech> Rebooted and still flickers?
[07:09] <Daskreech> what card do you have?
[07:09] <Rask> an on-board geforce 7100 (Zotac board)
[07:10] <Rask> How the hell do you make the screen flicker in GRUB? o__o
[07:13] <Daskreech> gpm?
[07:13] <Rask> GPM?
[07:13] <Daskreech> By the way did you ask in #ubuntu ?
[07:13] <Rask> Moving too fast to get a word in edgeewise :(
[07:15] <Rask> Seriously though... what could cause graphical glitching in GRUB of all things?  It's just text, there's no reason for this.
[07:16] <Daskreech> yeah that's kinda strange
[07:16] <Daskreech> What kinda flicker?
[07:17] <Rask> whole screen glitches for a split second and then recovers
[07:17] <Daskreech> so not like a TV flicker or a resolution change?
[07:17] <Daskreech> the fonts bugs out?
[07:18] <Rask> Well...
[07:18] <Rask> Nah, it's more a TV flicker
[07:18] <Rask> you can see the screen image offset from where it's supposed to be for a second, along with some messed-upness
[07:18] <Daskreech> and it does this how often?
[07:22] <sri13> hi , i want to develop code for kde-edu application , where I have to start ?
[07:23] <Daskreech> sri13: techbase.kde.org
[07:24] <Rask> Daskreech: Every single time you move the selection bar up or down.
[07:26] <sri13> Daskreech: But techbase , they are giving 4 options like nightly build , master .... , which one i have to choose ?
[07:26] <Rask> I'm just utterly baffled.
[07:26] <Daskreech> Rask: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-x-swat/x-updates
[07:26] <Rask> Confused, what am I doing there? o.o
[07:27] <Rask> This is in GRUB, before I even load Ubuntu
[07:27] <Daskreech> sri13: if you are doing something up to date you want trunk
[07:27] <Daskreech> Rask: Right go into ubuntu and run that command
[07:28] <Rask> Okay, but what is it going to do? o.o
[07:28] <Daskreech> sri13: You can ask in #kde-edu as well
[07:28] <Daskreech> Rask: it will add a new repository to download updates from
[07:28] <Rask> Okay, done
[07:28] <Rask> What next?
[07:29] <Daskreech> sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install nvidia-current nvidia-current-modaliases nvidia-settings
[07:30] <sri13> Daskreech: I want to develop the application Rocs , so which one I want to choose ?
[07:30] <Rask> Okay, retrieving, but what is all of this going to do, as a whole?
[07:33] <Daskreech> Rask: it will install a customised older set of drivers that should work better for your chipset
[07:33] <Daskreech> sri13: trunk should be fine
[07:34] <Rask> Last time I installed nvidia-common, I tried to modprobe it and it said device not found.  Should I be worried? :B
[07:35] <sri13> Daskreech:  Thanks , I wuill follow the instructions there , :)
[07:36] <Daskreech> sri13: :) #kde-devel will help if you get stuck
[07:36] <Daskreech> Rask: where did you install it from?
[07:36] <Rask> Point,
[07:36] <Rask> Point.*
[07:36] <Daskreech> I don't understand what that is
[07:36] <Rask> I mean, you have a point. :B
[07:40] <Daskreech> I still don't get it but ok :)
[07:40] <Daskreech>  at least that's the first thing I thought of when you said it :)
[07:40] <Rask> ok, that's done.
[07:40] <Rask> What shall I do next?
[07:43] <Rask> Daskreech:
[07:44] <Daskreech> Rask: Umm
[07:44] <Daskreech> reboot?
[07:44] <Rask> heeeeeeeere we go
[07:46] <Rask> nope
[07:46] <Rask> still flickertastic
[07:48] <Rask> Any other ideas up your sleeve? :(
[07:52] <Rask> I'm starting to believe this is a hardware problem.
[07:52] <Daskreech> Rask: seems widespread enough for me to think it's not
[07:53] <Daskreech> kdesudo nvidia-settings
[07:53] <Rask> Well, how's this for a hitch
[07:53] <Rask> I never thought to look before, but
[07:53] <Rask> the windows startup screen flickers too.
[07:53] <Daskreech> yeah it's power cycling I'm guessing
[07:53] <Rask> power cycling?
[07:54] <Daskreech> it's a problem with the nvidia drivers just trying to figure out how to shut that off
[07:54] <Rask> But this comes up in text mode.  o.o  That shouldn't make the GPU upshift at all.
[07:54] <iulian_> http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-hardware-18/nvidia-7100-unknown-chipset-613160/
[07:55] <Daskreech> Yeah that's really weird
[08:00] <Daskreech> http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-1471861.html might help
[08:02] <Rask> Well, thanks for your efforts, but I think this compy is obsolete anyway and maybe it's time I stimulate the economy.  >_<
[08:02] <Daskreech> ha ha :)
[08:03] <Daskreech> or have it do soething you don't hav to look at
[09:16] <goodnightvienna> morning... does anyone have experience using Transmission?
[09:18] <Kolia> gorgonzola: i'm using it at the moment
[09:19] <gorgonzola> ?

[14:23] <induz> hello guys why my KDEnlive crashes a lot
[14:23] <induz> is someone here??
[14:23] <induz> helo
[14:23] <induz> good morning
[14:24] <induz> bazhang, r u there?
[14:24] <slug> induz: good morning. did you check bug reports ?
[14:25] <induz> slug, what is that
[14:26] <slug> induz: https://wiki.kubuntu.org/Kubuntu/Bugs/Reporting
[14:26] <induz> after downloading kbuntu with ubuntu why my system is slow
[14:26] <slug> induz: https://launchpad.net/~kubuntu-bugs
[14:26] <slug> induz: what's your system specs?
[14:27] <slug> induz: CPU, RAM, disk
[14:27] <induz> intell p4 with 1 gb mem
[14:27] <induz> and 30gb hd for dual booting Xp
[14:27] <induz> Ubuntu is set to grow as it can
[14:28] <slug> induz: why you say it's slow?
[14:28] <slug> induz: 1gb for video editing is not that much
[14:28] <induz> cpu=p4 Intel pentiu, 1Gb Mem, 80Gb Hdd
[14:28] <induz> kdenlive crashes
[14:28] <slug> induz: does it allow you to create a stack trace?
[14:28] <induz> I have desktop not laptop
[14:29] <induz> yes i can reload with saved project but
[14:29] <slug> induz: that's not what i mean
[14:29] <induz> sometimes i lose the editing
[14:29] <slug> did you read the URL i sent you?
[14:29] <induz> stack trace??
[14:30] <induz> i am reading the website u sent me side by side
[14:31] <induz> is 1gb MEM is not good for kbuntu as i was fine with Gnome and ubuntu
[14:31] <induz> i installed KDE caz of kdenlive
[14:31] <slug> induz: if you are editing videos, 1GB probably is not enough.
[14:32] <slug> induz: do you have any swap?
[14:32] <james147> induz: 1gig is enough for kubuntu... but video editing is very memory intense and you really should get more ram if you want to do that
[14:33] <induz> james147, i can not go more than 2gb i guess in the current system...but I just want to do simple cut2cut
[14:33] <induz> not video effects
[14:33] <induz> i think when i installed ubuntu after Xp, it created some SWAP
[14:33] <james147> induz: what version of kubuntu are you using?
[14:34] <induz> james, how do i find out from Gnome ubuntu about kbuntu?
[14:34] <induz> I dont want to log-relog
[14:35] <james147> induz: if they are on the same install (ie you installed kubuntu-desktop from ubuntU)
[14:35] <james147> then run "lsb_release -a"
[14:36] <induz> it says no lsb, but  ubuntu 10.4
[14:36] <induz> I am running Lucid after upgrading from karmic
[14:36] <induz> yes Kbuntu is on same install
[14:37]  * james147 suggests upgrading to maverick (10.10), kde espically kdenlive has improved allot in that verion
[14:37] <induz> 10.04.2 LTS
[14:37] <BluesKaj> induz, it's called kubuntu , not kbuntu
[14:38] <induz> james147, I am scared as i had hell of time figuring my Dell USB wireless after upgrading to Lucid from karmic
[14:39] <induz> BluesKaj, I didnt notice that, I though its k-buntu
[14:39] <induz> as like u-buntu
[14:39] <james147> induz: then i suggest you grab a live cd of 10.10 and see if it works
[14:40] <induz> james147, as my system is way old, i dont want bloated OS with a lots of applications i dont know about
[14:40] <induz> I have to get a DVD burner first
[14:40] <james147> !usb
[14:40] <induz> i mean a DVD disk
[14:41] <slug> induz: i have both 10.04 and 10.10. 10.04 on my main laptop and 10.10 on other old desktop computers and it works fine.
[14:41] <james147> induz: ^^ and why are you worring about bloat if you are dual booting with xp and have both gnome and kde installed?
[14:41] <slug> induz: you don't need DVD, just grab the CD, or you can use a flash drive. look at usb-creator-kde
[14:42]  * james147 suggests NOT use the dvd... it really isnt needed by most people
[14:42] <slug> induz: i mean, grab the CD .iso file, then use usb creator to install it into a flash drive, no need to burn a CD.
[14:43] <slug> induz: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick
[14:43] <induz> slug, james147 I am not worry about bloated OS, I am worried about my system being OLD
[14:43] <BluesKaj> how old , induz ?
[14:43] <james147> induz: then thats more of a reason to upgrade kubuntu to 10.10... the newer versions of kde are more stable/faster
[14:43] <induz> I dont have a wireless PCI card, i use DEll USB car for wireless and there was no driver for that
[14:44] <slug> induz: do what james147 told you, try with the live from the flash drive to see if works.
[14:44] <james147> induz: which is why i suggest getting a livecd/usb and testing to see if it works on that
[14:44] <induz> let me get a USB. do i have to format the USB for it to work as iso media
[14:45] <induz> I have never used USB for bootup, but my system has that option at bootup\
[14:46] <slug> induz: use usb-creator
[14:46] <induz> Thanks james and slug, i will follow your suggestions
[14:46] <slug> induz: check the last URL i sent you
[14:46] <induz> slug, I am reading that site
[14:48] <induz> slug, is the USB drive has to have just the .iso of 10.10Ubuntu or it can also have other files on it
[14:48] <induz> I have this USB which has some other files and doc files on it
[14:49] <james147> induz: backup the contents to you harddrive first
[14:49] <slug> induz: you need to use usb-creator, you cannot just put the file there.
[14:49] <slug> induz: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick#Creating a bootable Ubuntu USB flash drive
[14:50] <slug> induz: <https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick#Creating a bootable Ubuntu USB flash drive>
[14:50] <james147> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick#Creating%20a%20bootable%20Ubuntu%20USB%20flash%20drive  ^^
[14:52] <induz> slug, it says;'making it bootable will destroy all pre-existing files on the USB drive!"
[14:52] <slug> induz: yeah
[14:52] <induz> I have to backup my data first
[14:53] <slug> induz: you will need an empty USB flash drive.
[14:53] <induz> I have buy that then
[14:53] <induz> i understood th concept now
[14:55] <induz> what should i install KuBuntu or ubuntu 10.10??
[14:55] <Peace-> induz: sudo apt-get install unetbootin
[14:55] <induz> I want to have wine for words[ms] and kdenlive
[14:56] <induz> unetbootin??
[14:56] <Peace-> unthat make usb bootable sudo apt-get install unetbootin
[14:57] <james147> Peace-: also usb-creator-kde ^^ which is installed by default and works nicer with kubuntu
[14:57] <Peace-> james147: mmm sometimes that software got strange problems here
[14:57] <Peace-> james147: i guess unetbootin is more complete software
[14:57]  * james147 found the opposite ^^
[14:58] <Peace-> james147: :S
[14:58] <Peace-> induz: libreoffice doesn't fit for you? instead of words?
[14:58] <james147> at least on later version of usb-creator.. the eairler ones where abit iffy
[14:58] <induz> Should i install 10.10 or Kubuntu
[14:58] <Peace-> kubuntu = ubuntu + kde destkop

[15:13] <admin1> peace - I have several users from several different windows PC's  what should I do for valid users line
[15:15] <BluesKaj> kde 4.6 and some of the new desktop/plasma themes and desktop effects aren't very compatible ..my desktop just froze using ctrl+f11 to rotate the cube
[15:15] <james147> admin1: nothing, and add "guest ok = yes"  and  in the [global] section set "security = share"  that will let anyone access your share without a password
[15:16] <james147> admin1: alternitive to that you need to add each user to your computer, then register them with samba and add them all to the valid users line
[15:17] <admin1> okay,  one last question:  /media/COYOTE_DRIVE/ is this valid where /media is a folder on master and /coyote_drive/ is root of 2tb drive
[15:18] <admin1> I see 2tb in this path when  i navigate
[15:19] <james147> admin1: yes, use the path in which you can browse it...
[15:19] <Daskreech> valorie: Awwww :)
[15:19]  * Daskreech hugs
[15:19] <james147> ^^ but make sure you use the right caplisation... all paths are case sensitive
[15:19] <admin1> rock on and I am deleteing  the valid user line and replacing the text abov.e thanks  a lot...

[15:26] <admin1> James147 = why do I get command not found when I issue  -  sudo /etc/init.d/samba restart
[15:26] <james147> admin1: try smbd
[15:26] <james147> instead of samaba
[15:27] <Guest32508> ciao
[15:27] <Guest32508> !list
[15:28] <BluesKaj> the service command seems to be replacing etc/init.d lately ..I noticed that with init.d/networking
[15:29] <admin1> ubottu okay dude, give this 50 year old a break! I'm a dos guy trying to learn this stuff,  help me get to the right place please
[15:29] <vanguard_> I am looking for a clean sans font like myriad pro, is there some free alternative?
[15:30] <BluesKaj> admin1, as you probly observed , ubottu is an info/factoid botscript
[15:31] <BluesKaj> vanguard_, dunno why look into truetype fonts , i think they're open source now
[15:31] <BluesKaj> er whynot look
[15:35] <james147> !pm | admin1
[15:35] <james147> and if you edited the /etc/samba/smb.conf file you dont need to use the gui dialog... which is alittle over complex :D.... is you share not showing up after you restart samba?
[15:38] <phoenix_firebrd> hello everyone
[15:38] <phoenix_firebrd> BluesKaj: are you there?
[15:39] <BluesKaj> phoenix_firebrd, Hi ...did removing nepomuk break your setup ?
[15:40] <phoenix_firebrd> BluesKaj: no, i am happy that you still remeber that :)
[15:41] <BluesKaj> I'm glad you didn't use the package manager , to do because most of kubuntu-dektop would have gone with it , phoenix_firebrd
[15:41] <BluesKaj> to do so
[15:41] <phoenix_firebrd> BluesKaj: ya
[15:42] <phoenix_firebrd> BluesKaj: one small correction
[15:42] <BluesKaj> that's why I don't use gui package managers
[15:42] <BluesKaj> phoenix_firebrd, ok ?
[15:42] <phoenix_firebrd> BluesKaj: i was not able to remove nepomuk, but removed virtuoso, so nepomuk doesnt start now
[15:43] <phoenix_firebrd> BluesKaj: as you said when i tried to uninstall nepomuk, it was pulling the whole installation
[15:45] <phoenix_firebrd> BluesKaj: how can i integrate kfind to dolphin?
[15:45] <BluesKaj> did you try to start it system settings / startup&shutdown/service manager / startup services?
[15:46] <phoenix_firebrd> BluesKaj: i didnt try that, should i try that now?
[15:47] <BluesKaj> phoenix_firebrd, whynot just add dolphin to your panel
[15:47] <BluesKaj> well phoenix_firebrd , if it's listed you can start nepomuk
[15:48] <phoenix_firebrd> BluesKaj: no what i ment was then when i press ctrl+f, k find should open i the current directory
[15:50] <BluesKaj> dunno, I'm not much on KB shortcuts , I just put apps that use frequently into the panel for quick access
[15:51] <phoenix_firebrd> BluesKaj: are you using kde 4.6?
[15:52] <BluesKaj> yes
[15:53] <phoenix_firebrd> BluesKaj: are you using indexed file searching, if so , are you satisfied with the search results?
[15:54] <BluesKaj> i don't use indexed file searching , it's turned off , phoenix_firebrd
[15:54] <phoenix_firebrd> BluesKaj: good
[15:56] <phoenix_firebrd> BluesKaj: thank you. see you
[15:57] <BluesKaj> most apps are usr/bin, usr/sbin and any data I need like media is in the default folders in my /home dir, so personally I don't see the ned for a pc-search

[17:00] <admin1> emonkey - have time for some advice?
[17:01] <admin1> file share question:  windows returns server/guest as username when trying to connect to share, what do I need to change in my smb.conf
[17:02] <james147> admin1: security = share  in the [general] section
[17:02] <admin1> its there
[17:03] <admin1> does guest = no need to be removed?  also have valid user = john  sally
[17:04] <james147> admin1: for valid users to work you need an account on the server with that name and assuciate that user with samba (with smppasswd)
[17:04] <james147> smbpasswd ^^
[17:04] <admin1> can I issue the smbpasswd command using each username that I want to be able to attach to share?
[17:05] <james147> ^^ as well you need to create a unix account first
[17:05] <rtdos> how can i find out which desktops i have installed and how to launch them? i have a friend who uses text based login and thinks he installed several different desktops but he is not sure which ones or how to launch them.
[17:06] <admin1> oh, can you possibly point me to a link that might help
[17:09] <james147> admin1: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=202605
[17:11] <james147> rtdos: this is for arch, but might still provide useful info: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Xorg#Using_.xinitrc
[17:11] <admin1> thanks james
[17:12] <admin1> JAMES - I got the share to show up after two days of fighting, so this 50 year old dos guy is making progress.  Now I just need to lock the kids out of the root
[17:13] <james147> admin1: the root account?
[17:19] <rtdos> thanks, james147
[17:27] <rtdos> i lost my eth0 device and now i cant use startx i get an addscreen/screeninit error.
[17:31] <Daskreech> rtdos: lost it?
[17:35] <BluesKaj> rtdos, best to try the recovery kernel, then 'fix broken packages' in the dialog
[17:37] <admin1> no, root of share drive...thanks  james
[17:39] <james147> admin1: if you mean form the cliend(ie windows) then make sure you dont add their user to the valid users... if you mean on the server, then mount it in a location and with permission so they cannot access it
[17:41] <admin1> that's what i am trying to do.  they can see the subdirectories I want them to see as I have loaded them as shares in smb.conf, now I am trying to lock the root of the share so they cannot browse to it and find
[17:41] <admin1> other subdirectories
[17:42] <james147> admin1: try setting "security = user" again
[17:43] <admin1> okay
[17:44] <admin1> how come when i try to sudo smbpasswd -L -a andrea (my wife) I get a failed to add entry for user andrea return after I enter the password.  does the password have to meet a certain standard?
[17:45] <james147> admin1: does the user "andrea" exist on the server?
[17:46] <rtdos> lost it daskreech. :-(
[17:46] <Daskreech> rtdos: it fell out the computer?
[17:48] <admin1> does now :-)  thanks
[17:51] <admin1> Can I designate static ip vice dhcp in the ifconfig file?
[17:53] <rtdos> blueskaj: even modeprob doesn't see it
[17:56] <BluesKaj> rtdos, diyou try the recovery kernel ?
[17:58] <james147> admin1: you can configure a static ip by either reserving an ip from your router (so that it always give you the same ip via dhcp) or on the computer by: http://codesnippets.joyent.com/posts/show/319
[17:58] <oal> I am trying to install kubuntu 10.10 but I get this error http://dpaste.com/436855/
[17:59] <oal> A problem with subprocess_
[17:59] <admin1> what do you recommend.  Is WINS = yes a big advantage, if so, I will go with static on box
[17:59] <oal> Ive tried both from cd and usb stick.... Same error. I have to get this sorted out today. Googleing gives me nothign
[18:01] <oal> Any suggestions_
[18:01] <oal> Oh, wrong keyboard layout as well. Nothing works today
[18:01] <oal> That was a question mark
[18:02] <BluesKaj> admin1, a hint , it's best to let /etc/network/interfaces handle your networking directly if you want a staic IP ..if you do so networkmanager can be removed
[18:02] <BluesKaj> err static IP
[18:03] <admin1> thanks BluesKaj
[18:04] <BluesKaj> admin1, james147 I think this tutorial is somewhat clearer http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/howto-ubuntu-linux-convert-dhcp-network-configuration-to-static-ip-configuration.html
[18:06] <BluesKaj> admin1, the above setup works well for me ...it was recommended by actionparsnip on #ubuntu , he's one of the networking resident gurus on freenode
[18:06] <rtdos> blueskaj: how? i booted into repair mode from the boot menu. does the cd have something i can use to repair?
[18:08] <BluesKaj> rtdos, did you choose the "fix brokenpackages" option in the recovery kernel ? from the grub menu
[18:08] <BluesKaj> not the cd
[18:13] <stephenmac7> Hello, does wireles work in the live cd ?
[18:13] <rtdos> yes, blueskaj
[18:14] <james147> stephenmac7: it should do
[18:15] <BluesKaj> stephenmac7, usually if you're using a laptop, any outboard wifi devices take a bit more work and an ethernet connect will be needed to install the right drivers
[18:16] <BluesKaj> rtdos, yes what?
[18:18] <sriramoman> i use kde 4.6, sometimes when i choose folder view layout it comes like this: http://img524.imageshack.us/img524/6373/group2.png how do i prevent this ugly phenomenon from happening!
[18:19] <sriramoman> this used to happen in KDE 4.5 too
[18:20] <admin1_> in Kubuntu, what is the preferred terminal window and how do I load it to my panel
[18:20] <admin1_> i am using guake terminal
[18:21] <rtdos> blueskaj, yes, i did choose the 'fix brokenpackages' in the recovery kernel.
[18:21] <BluesKaj> admin1_, kdm
[18:21] <james147> admin1: konsole is the terminal application in kubuntu, you should be able to drag it to the panel to create a shorcut (if widgets are unlocked)
[18:22] <BluesKaj> admin1_, oops I meant kwin
[18:33] <admin1_> HELP:  I am still having problems attaching to the root of the share drive on my windows box.  When i try to mak I get a gray username box that says:  Server\Guest

[18:37] <warpi> hello, does anyone know how to make a mount in "/media" to show up in the tree in thunar?
[18:39] <james147> warpi: ask in #ubuntu for gnome related questions
[18:40] <warpi> oki
[18:40] <warpi> thc
[18:40] <warpi> thx*
[18:41] <shane4ubuntu> warpi: basically you just want to make that the mount point, sudo mount /dev/partition /media/mountpoint
[18:42] <warpi> shane4ubuntu, i added the mount to "/etc/fstab", and wrote "sudo mount -a"
[18:43] <warpi> the file share is mounted, but it does not show up in thunar :(
[18:43] <warpi> it do shows up in nautilus
[18:43] <warpi> maybe a restart will help
[18:44] <shane4ubuntu> warpi: perhaps, I'm not familiar with thunar, you probably could find more info in the #ubuntu room, that is more Ubuntu related than Kubuntu
[18:44] <warpi> oki
[18:48] <james147> admin1_: can you pastebin the file and post the link here
[18:51] <admin1_> http://paste.ubuntu.com/569743/  when I login from another WIN box it wants a userid and password and returns win-pc/userid   in the username box.  coyote_drive is the only one that is problematic  all other shares are performing as I want
[18:52] <Snowhog> Anyone using Stefan Glasenhardt's repository (ppa:glasen/intel-driver)? I'd be interested in your experience before and after using the version 2.14 of the Intel-driver.
[18:52] <james147> admin1_: i am not sure you can have nested shares like that
[18:54] <admin1_> I can hit any of the shares listed and the directories open fine from multiple computers, but i am definately locked out of the root directors coyote_drive from the same windows machines
[18:54] <admin1_> the only problem I seem to be having is authenticating the credential between WIN and Kubuntu
[19:00] <bossman> Sup.
[19:03] <BluesKaj> how does one remove a network link , I mistakenly made 2 links to the samw windows pc , but there's no method, that i can find, to remove the duplicate
[19:04] <james147> BluesKaj: in the places panel of dolphin?
[19:04] <BluesKaj> james147,in dolphin/network
[19:05] <BluesKaj> it's a network folder
[19:05] <james147> BluesKaj: right click delete?
[19:06]  * james147 has an option to delete them, but he enabled the option in the settings to show the delete entry... " shift + del " should also work
[19:06] <BluesKaj> yeah,delete gives an 'access denued' dialog
[19:07] <james147> hmm
[19:08] <BluesKaj> thanks james147, shift+ delete did the trick
[19:08] <BluesKaj> it's  just a link, why the deny access ? strange..
[20:05] <admin1> james147 / Blues K+  thanks for all your help.  from windows XP = map drive and tell windows you want to use an alternative login.  select SERVER\USERNAME and password where server = servername of Kubuntu and  username is a registered userid in Kubuntu
[20:06] <admin1> I got it working and can effectively control permissons to keep the kids out of the root of my share and subdirectories I don't want them in while allowing them to browse music store, pictures...
[20:10] <AlexZion> hi guys , I don't know what's went wrongonmy system but it's every day worst , so I decide to reinstall..., but I was thinking  about try out kubuntu 11.04 which I heard is already stable enough ...., is it true !?! :D
[20:14] <pako_> list
[20:16] <james147> AlexZion: it is currently alpha 2.... not advised to install on  production machine... and not advised to install if you dont mind frequent breakages... but if you like messing around and dont mind everything dieing horribly then it should be fine :)
[20:16] <shane4ubuntu> I think I asked this before, but let's try this again,  can I change the background color of Dolphin window?
[20:17] <james147> shane4ubuntu: just the dolphin window? or every window?
[20:17] <pako_> list
[20:17] <shane4ubuntu> james147: just the dolphin window
[20:18] <james147> shane4ubuntu: look at qt style sheets and the --stylesheet option of qt applications
[20:18] <simo163> hi every one!
[20:18] <simo163> how to open wax file??
[20:18] <shane4ubuntu> james147: which category in System Settings?
[20:19] <james147> simo163: whats a was file?
[20:19] <simo163> wax
[20:19] <james147> shane4ubuntu: there is no way to change the look of a single applicaion from a gui... you will have to write your own qt stylesheet and launch the application with the --stylesheet <file.pss>  option
[20:20] <simo163> it's like mp3 i think hames147
[20:20] <shane4ubuntu> james147: eek, ok thanks for the info.
[20:20] <simo163> it's like mp3 i think james147
[20:20]  * shane4ubuntu runs and hides from learning stylesheets
[20:20] <james147> shane4ubuntu: its not to hard to write a stylesheet,
[20:21] <james147> shane4ubuntu: http://doc.qt.nokia.com/latest/stylesheet.html  << might be a good place to start :)
[20:22] <shane4ubuntu> perhaps not, but I was looking for a two click method, I got other things to work on.  Was on my Gnome laptop with Nautilus and was reminded of changing the background in Nautilus to have a 'nicer' background than plain white.
[20:22] <shane4ubuntu> not a biggie, just minor
[20:23] <james147> shane4ubuntu: you just need a file with something along the lines of: QMainWindow { background: white }    in it :) and add the --stylesheet <filename> to the launcher
[20:24] <shane4ubuntu> james147: can it be an image file instead of a color?
[20:24] <james147> shane4ubuntu: umm.... not sure
[20:25] <james147> shane4ubuntu: try "background-image: url(file.png)"  ... but i dont know if it will work
[20:26] <shane4ubuntu> james147: here is a good picture of what I mean:  http://www.liberiangeek.net/2010/09/change-nautilus-background-color-patterns-ubuntu-10-0410-10-maverick-meerkat/

[20:36] <shane4ubuntu> hmm, color doesn't seem to work, or image.
[20:45] <simo163> anyone knows how to open wax file??
[20:49] <james147> shane4ubuntu: http://paste.ubuntu.com/569783/ worked for me :p
[20:51] <shane4ubuntu> james147: is that the entire file?
[20:51] <james147> shane4ubuntu: yeah
[20:51] <shane4ubuntu> dolphin --stylesheet /home/shane/burlap.pss
[20:52] <shane4ubuntu> doesn't seem to work for me.
[20:52] <james147> ^^ hmm, works for me :p
[20:52] <shane4ubuntu> I set the permissions to 755 on the burlap.pss file
[20:52] <james147> (i used .qss though)
[20:52] <shane4ubuntu> I copied and pasted your info, ahh, qss, let me try that.
[20:52] <shane4ubuntu> although is shouldn't really matter even if it is a txt file
[20:53] <shane4ubuntu> nope, qt and stylesheets don't like me.
[20:53] <shane4ubuntu> ok, thanks anyway, back to work. :)

[23:28] <amstan> yes, i just tried pulse audio, half of the things are broken, the icon does not show up right, when i play vlc and amarok at the same time i just hear lots of static
[23:29] <amstan> the center speaker is not actually the center speaker, it's some software interpolation, even though i have a perfectly fine 5.1 source
[23:29] <amstan> i'm just confused why kde 4.5 worked just fine with the setup i had, now it won't play nice
[23:34] <CuBeTop> hi all! does anyone have any experience with fingerprint sensors on maverick and kde4 4.6 ?
[23:34] <CuBeTop> last time I tried it, I succesfully locked myself out from system, I had to use rescue mode to able to log in
[23:34] <CuBeTop> I have Upek Biometric Touchchip/Touchstrip Fingerprint Sensor
[23:41] <admin1> question - have 240GB of data to move from NAS drive to 2TB drive on Kubuntu file server ==what's best method to accomplish?
[23:43] <james147> admin1: i would use "rsync -avhP <source> <dest>" << with if it gets intrupted when rerun it and it will continue where it left off
[23:48] <admin1> that's my problem  I tried the first bit using copy / paste and it hung on a file and now I have to go back and get the file manually .  will give it a try if I can get the syntax right  will be difficult since source is NAS on linksys WRT router
[23:49] <admin1> can I use the dir command to see if I can list files at a network location? so I can figure out the true filepath that this OS recognizes
[23:50] <james147> admin1: rsync will only work with local files and over ssh... if the files are stored on a samba share then you can mount the share locally then rsync the files
[23:55] <admin1> okay, let me see if I can work this out
[23:59] <trudell> hi all, hi bazhang
