| FrenzyH4 | hi | 03:15 |
| Daskreech | Hi | 03:47 |
| nata | here rarely got people chat. | 03:50 |
| pillarsdotnet | okay, how do I troubleshoot why knotify isn't playing sounds on Maverick | 03:51 |
| nata | ask for kubuntu help, no body know. ask another topic not related kena scold. hehe | 03:52 |
| pillarsdotnet | huh? | 03:52 |
| pillarsdotnet | I tried asking in #kde and they said to ask in #kubuntu | 03:52 |
| PartMyTomatoes | http://img4.imageshack.us/i/forpooperscooper.png/ goood? | 03:53 |
| PartMyTomatoes | i made it myself | 03:53 |
| PartMyTomatoes | in gimp | 03:53 |
| * arrrghhh backs away slowly | 03:53 | |
| pillarsdotnet | Where do I find someone who knows about problems with kde that are specific to unbuntu. | 03:53 |
| pillarsdotnet | Since this is obviously the wrong channel.. | 03:54 |
| pillarsdotnet | s/unbuntu/ubuntu/ | 03:54 |
| arrrghhh | pillarsdotnet: this is? | 03:54 |
| nata | pillarsdotnet: i think what you need can set at system settings/Application and system notification | 03:54 |
| pillarsdotnet | right. | 03:55 |
| pillarsdotnet | I was just there. | 03:55 |
| pillarsdotnet | only thing I can change is whether it uses gstreamer or xine | 03:55 |
| pillarsdotnet | So I switched from one to another | 03:55 |
| pillarsdotnet | Got one single "ping" on a message in a minimized window but nothing since then. | 03:55 |
| pillarsdotnet | I've got both sound and popup-window notifications turned on. | 03:56 |
| pillarsdotnet | windows pop up but no sounds. | 03:56 |
| pillarsdotnet | sounds work otherwise. | 03:56 |
| pillarsdotnet | mplayer | 03:56 |
| pillarsdotnet | flash | 03:56 |
| pillarsdotnet | skype | 03:56 |
| nata | PartMyTomatoes: you should continue :) | 03:56 |
| pillarsdotnet | but not events reported by knotify | 03:56 |
| nata | pillarsdotnet: very trouble. knotify sound like 'de ren' | 03:58 |
| pillarsdotnet | ah.. | 03:58 |
| pillarsdotnet | found it. | 03:58 |
| pillarsdotnet | I think. | 03:59 |
| pillarsdotnet | mmm | 03:59 |
| pillarsdotnet | my .knotifyrc had a line that said "No sound = true" | 03:59 |
| pillarsdotnet | I changed it to false. | 03:59 |
| pillarsdotnet | Do I have to log out of kde or can I hup knotify somehow? | 03:59 |
| nata | pillarsdotnet: i found it! you can set at system settings/application and system notifications/manage notification/application/at even source, add sound at there | 04:02 |
| pillarsdotnet | nata -- thanks. worked. | 04:05 |
| nata | pillarsdotnet: at there can channge ring to computer speak knotify, very nice. hehe | 04:06 |
| pillarsdotnet | interesting. | 04:07 |
| pillarsdotnet | Now when I go back to Hardware / Multimesia / Phonon, the only output device listed is "PulseAudio Sound Server" | 04:08 |
| pillarsdotnet | Before it listed my hardware devices. | 04:09 |
| pillarsdotnet | and the sounds stopped again. | 04:09 |
| pillarsdotnet | (sigh) | 04:09 |
| pillarsdotnet | yup. | 04:10 |
| pillarsdotnet | now not even the test play in the settings work. | 04:10 |
| pillarsdotnet | hmm. | 04:10 |
| pillarsdotnet | all sounds borken now. | 04:11 |
| arrrghhh | reboot time? | 04:11 |
| pillarsdotnet | prolly oughtta reboot kde (logout/login) | 04:11 |
| PartMyTomatoes | http://img198.imageshack.us/i/brokenperson.png/ NEW ART | 04:13 |
| nata | i think you set all to default by using tab below at system settings. and change back what you change before from other. | 04:15 |
| pillarsdotnet | works now, I think. | 04:15 |
| pillarsdotnet | thanks. | 04:16 |

| murali | I installed AVG antivirus on kubuntu, but donot how to use it. where can i find installed program files to use them | 06:29 |
| murali | ? | 06:29 |
| murali | please help | 06:29 |
| bazhang | murali, installed from where | 06:29 |
| sre-su | From where did you install it, murali? | 06:30 |
| sre-su | Ah | 06:30 |
| bazhang | murali, and more importantly why install one at all | 06:30 |
| murali | i downloaded it from the internet | 06:30 |
| sre-su | !virus | murali | 06:30 |
| ubottu | murali: Antivirus is something you don't need on !Linux, except where files are then passed to windows computers (perhaps using samba), See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Antivirus | 06:30 |
| bazhang | murali, then check the internet docs | 06:30 |
| bazhang | murali, you running a mailserver with windows machines? | 06:31 |
| murali | its a .deb file | 06:31 |
| murali | nop | 06:31 |
| bazhang | murali, then why install one | 06:31 |
| murali | i dnt know much about linux, thot it wud b useful | 06:32 |
| murali | do u suggest me to uninstall it? | 06:32 |
| bazhang | murali, sharing lots of files/data with windows machines? | 06:32 |
| sre-su | Defragmentation and antivirus hassle are not need for *nix. | 06:33 |
| murali | i download the files from internet using kubuntu itself n place them in widows drives | 06:33 |
| bazhang | murali, please answer my question | 06:33 |
| murali | yes | 06:33 |
| bazhang | murali, yes what | 06:33 |
| murali | yes i do share files in windows machines | 06:34 |
| bazhang | murali, try clamav I suppose, or check the internet docs for avast/avg or whatever 3rd party items you have installed | 06:35 |
| murali | ok. thank you Bazhang. | 06:35 |
| bazhang | murali, there really is almost no need whatsoever for antivirus in Linux/Ubuntu | 06:36 |

| jhoc2x2 | I have Compaq CQ40 laptop, installed Kubuntu 10.10 and updated to recent updates | 09:45 |
| jhoc2x2 | ohh.. ok | 09:45 |
| jhoc2x2 | by the way, everything works fine for me. except when I suspend (closing lid), I can't turn it back on, or after opening lid, all i see is blank monitor | 09:46 |

| jhoc2x2 | 257 users, and no reply.. zzzzzzzzz | 10:03 |
| james147 | jhoc2x2: suspend problems arent that easy to fix... it comes from a problem with the acpi spec as far as I know, makeing almost every laptop implment it slightly differently... | 10:05 |
| jhoc2x2 | james147: Nvm the suspend prob | 10:05 |
| jhoc2x2 | james147: I have another problem now, After I updated to the most current updates, I can't reach log in screen | 10:06 |
| * james147 droped out for a sec and missed that problem :) | 10:06 | |
| james147 | jhoc2x2: do you drop to a shell? | 10:07 |
| jhoc2x2 | yeah | 10:07 |
| jhoc2x2 | james147: yeah.. | 10:07 |
| james147 | jhoc2x2: are you connected via cable or wifi? | 10:07 |
| jhoc2x2 | james147: wifi | 10:07 |
| jhoc2x2 | james147: well, I can't use wifi on a shell right? | 10:07 |
| james147 | jhoc2x2: can you get a cable connection (it makes things easier)? | 10:07 |
| james147 | jhoc2x2: you can, its just more anoying to connect | 10:08 |
| jhoc2x2 | james147: uhmm.. even if connect it to cable, I don't know how to make net connection on a CLI | 10:08 |
| james147 | jhoc2x2: it should be automatic with a cable | 10:08 |
| jhoc2x2 | james147: to tell u, I really am a noob about this, I don't know what to command on a CLI | 10:09 |
| james147 | (that is, assuming you are connected via a router, and not have any funky setups :) ) | 10:09 |
| james147 | jhoc2x2: via cable or wireless? | 10:09 |
| jhoc2x2 | james147: sir, excuse me but, it seems you don't understand me. I know how to connect cable or wifi if I am on a GUI, but not on a CLI (shell as you call it) | 10:10 |
| jhoc2x2 | james147: my problem is, after updating my system, all i get after restarting (2.6.35-25 kernel) all I see is a shell (CLI) | 10:12 |
| james147 | jhoc2x2: yes, but are you attempting to connect via wifi or cable? (cable is easier)? also, how do you normally connect? (any authentication?) | 10:12 |
| jhoc2x2 | james147: im currently connected to a wifi. and seems to work fine. All im wondering is after upgrading the kernel, I get blank screen with a shell | 10:14 |
| * james147 thinks you might have some missing or broaken packages.... and a network connection would be required to fix that hence my questions | 10:14 | |
| jhoc2x2 | be right back.. 10 minutes... | 10:14 |
| jhoc2x2 | im back.. ^_^ | 10:32 |
| jhoc2x2 | I had a very nice dinner ^_^ wew | 10:32 |

| microdot2012 | I should preface this with, I've gone through most of the related UI's I can find, and I can confirm my BIOS has no settings for this, but anyone know how to completely stop screensaver/screen blanking? | 12:56 |
| microdot2012 | My HDMI audio dies whenever the powersave/screen blanking happens, and I just plain want to turn the entire feature off | 12:57 |
| geant4_plat | hellow | 13:19 |
| BluesKaj | howdy folks | 13:19 |
| shane4ubuntu | Ok, about every month I update something on my web page that I have written in OpenOffice, when I copy and paste it from OpenOffice (LibreOffice) into my web page thing, the formatting is always a mess, lines are always cut short and don't fill the area. Any ideas? | 13:26 |
| shane4ubuntu | Somehow I need to clean the formatting so it is plain text before I paste it. | 13:26 |
| susundberg | Use text editor | 13:26 |
| susundberg | not wysiwyg editor | 13:26 |
| susundberg | use for example gedit, notepad, kate | 13:26 |
| susundberg | Or any simple web form will do also | 13:27 |
| susundberg | like pastebin | 13:27 |
| susundberg | (www.pastebin.com) | 13:27 |
| shane4ubuntu | susundberg: I pasted it into kate, and it kept some of the formatting, like I tried to put a space before the first line of a paragraph and the entire paragraph indented | 13:27 |
| microdot2012 | you can also go to the edit menu in ooo | 13:28 |
| microdot2012 | and choose, paste special, unformatted text | 13:28 |
| microdot2012 | then no other program need be opened | 13:28 |
| susundberg | but hes trying to paste into webpage if i understood properly | 13:28 |
| susundberg | well yeah sure ok, he can then re-copy that text .. | 13:28 |
| microdot2012 | ooops, not enough coffee | 13:29 |
| microdot2012 | I was going the other direction | 13:29 |
| susundberg | :) | 13:29 |
| shane4ubuntu | right going from ooo to the web page. | 13:29 |
| shane4ubuntu | ahh, got it! | 13:29 |
| microdot2012 | oh crap, I forgot, I was running a power save test, to see if I finally killed the beast - and it wasn't even a helpful interjection. What worked for you? | 13:30 |
| shane4ubuntu | Kate was too technical, can kept too much detail. Saved it in OOo as a .txt file, then opened it with Kate, still some formatting, then opened it with bluefish, and waaa-laaaa worked. | 13:30 |
| microdot2012 | ahhh nice | 13:31 |
| shane4ubuntu | I don't understand enough about these 'simple' text editors like kate, bluefish etc, but they seem to retain some form of rtf editing attributes or something. | 13:32 |
| microdot2012 | you know, I just use eclipse for everything code related | 13:32 |
| shane4ubuntu | They are so multi-use that they are not longer 'simple' text editors. | 13:32 |
| microdot2012 | there is always vi | 13:33 |
| shane4ubuntu | right, but this isn't code stuff, just simple plain old text | 13:33 |
| microdot2012 | believe me, no extras | 13:33 |
| shane4ubuntu | yes, I have tinkered with vi, I prefer nano, probably should have tried that. | 13:33 |
| microdot2012 | well I do think of html as coding related | 13:33 |
| microdot2012 | i'd prefer nano, except i learned VI down into my fingers years ago | 13:33 |
| shane4ubuntu | no, this isn't even html | 13:33 |
| microdot2012 | on solaris - and hey they know what to do | 13:33 |
| microdot2012 | hahahaha | 13:33 |
| shane4ubuntu | a simple blog style type thing to put on my web page (drupal) so it gets pasted into their wysiwyg editor, should be straight forward | 13:34 |
| microdot2012 | oh come on, somebody has to throw emacs out there | 13:34 |
| microdot2012 | cross application objects are just not as smooth in the linux universe, but it's getting better all the time | 13:35 |
| microdot2012 | anyone here have a dell precision M series? Or alternatively have experience with Nvidia Quadro chipset, intel onboard sound and HDMI? | 13:36 |
| microdot2012 | hmmm, or another question, how does phonon pick up the alsa devices? What I have in amixer does not match phonon and all the googling I've done on config phonon shows me everything except how it gets devices themselves | 13:39 |
| BluesKaj | microdot2012, not real sure but pulseaudio is in the mix...pardon the pun, and I have been removing pulseaudio since it was intro'd due my simpke soundcard setup | 13:41 |
| BluesKaj | to my simple | 13:41 |
| microdot2012 | I'm running 10.10 | 13:42 |
| microdot2012 | which replaces pulseaudio with phonon | 13:42 |
| microdot2012 | I ripped pulse out | 13:42 |
| BluesKaj | microdot2012, id you have dedicated pci soundcard then pulseaudio can be a benefit | 13:42 |
| BluesKaj | wanna bet | 13:42 |
| microdot2012 | No it can't, lol | 13:42 |
| microdot2012 | I use jack on my main audio box | 13:42 |
| microdot2012 | with multiple pci cards, I mean pulse is just a layer of indirection that causes problems IMHO | 13:43 |
| BluesKaj | pulseaudio is installed by default on 10.10 | 13:43 |
| microdot2012 | Yes, but KDE apps uses phonon, so you can just uninstall it | 13:43 |
| microdot2012 | which I did - and that's how I have working audio - up until a screensaver event | 13:43 |
| BluesKaj | exactly | 13:43 |
| microdot2012 | but I only have digital out through hdmi working | 13:43 |
| microdot2012 | phonon deletes the analog - which I actually wouldn't care about if HDMI stayed stable | 13:44 |
| BluesKaj | pcm coax here | 13:44 |
| microdot2012 | but it makes me think there's something in phonon/alsa which is not linked right | 13:44 |
| microdot2012 | my daw is all spdif | 13:44 |
| microdot2012 | but the laptop/jukebox hdmi to reciever, put amarok on the TV so friends can 'dj' | 13:44 |
| microdot2012 | but after 20 if I don't touch the keyboard - boom music dies, parties over until I reboot | 13:45 |
| microdot2012 | restarting X isn't enough | 13:45 |
| BluesKaj | it would be nice if my card passed DD thru to the HT receiver | 13:46 |
| microdot2012 | yeah, that's a landmine and hard to spec out without testing | 13:46 |
| microdot2012 | I also have an older m6400 | 13:47 |
| microdot2012 | and I couldn't get audio over the hdmi | 13:47 |
| microdot2012 | same basic specs, except older version of the intel onboard sound and nvidia 2700 instead of 2800 | 13:47 |
| BluesKaj | that's a common problem , hdmi audio | 13:48 |
| === mren|off is now known as mren | ||
| microdot2012 | and completely disabling screen blanking is another common problem | 13:49 |
| microdot2012 | if I could solve either I'd be a much happier man | 13:49 |
| microdot2012 | I even setup a RHEL partition to use the dell approved drivers - and no love there at all | 13:50 |
| microdot2012 | came back to kubuntu and setup the alsa latest build repos and wallah | 13:50 |
| microdot2012 | strip out pulse and hdmi audio works | 13:50 |
| BluesKaj | dunno which nvidia audio chip ..it's just MCP61 for all pci stuff , so the actual chip isn't listed using lspci | 13:51 |
| microdot2012 | it's weird, because the sound card shows INTEL_HDA_SND | 13:52 |
| microdot2012 | but it is going out over hdmi - many nvidia graphics cards actuallly have a sound device | 13:52 |
| BluesKaj | pulseaudio is just another layer of useless audio porcessing IMO | 13:52 |
| microdot2012 | so I'm not quite sure why it's working | 13:52 |
| microdot2012 | yeah - pulse sucks - phonon seems a little easier to work with. | 13:53 |
| microdot2012 | and jack is always there for the hardcore | 13:53 |
| microdot2012 | but that's on my ubuntustudio machine - and that's a dedicated DAW | 13:53 |
| microdot2012 | yeah pulse is... something that I've never gone - wow that is a helpful feature, and it's the source of many a night of debugging - especially on my wife's system76 | 13:54 |
| microdot2012 | actually do you know if there is a pulseless option for gnome based ubuntu? | 13:55 |
| BluesKaj | to me pulseaudio is political ,there's a dev who had some influence with canonical and was able to get his pet ptoject approved as default on jaunty , I believe | 13:55 |
| microdot2012 | other than direct alsa | 13:55 |
| microdot2012 | makes sense, and the idea was pretty good | 13:55 |
| microdot2012 | well I gotta conference call, and if I don't stop typing I won't know if my latest attempt to disaable screen power down worked. cheers m8 | 13:57 |
| BluesKaj | microdot2012, there are defenders out there , and I've been criticized for expressing my opinion about pulseaudio's default status , by a group of ppl including some ops over ay #ubuntu , but he number of pulse supporters seems to be dwindling | 13:58 |
| microdot2012 | Yeah I am aware, and I really just don't worry about it much. | 13:59 |
| microdot2012 | hell get into kde vs. gnome, or even the old vi vs. emacs | 13:59 |
| microdot2012 | we can argue and still get along ;) | 14:00 |
| BluesKaj | no point in wasting energy :)_ | 14:00 |
| microdot2012 | and on the one machine pulse has worked well on - it stays on | 14:00 |
| BluesKaj | pulse works on my pc , but it restricts my options to analog | 14:01 |

| blabla | hi | 15:31 |
| blabla | hope you can help me, i am trying to install kubuntu 10.10 for my dad on an external usb hard drive (spinny one). its for his laptop so i cant remove harddrives and i want to make sure i dont overright the mbr for the windows install. so i booted up and did manual install and everthing freezes at "formatting swap.." | 15:32 |
| blabla | it doesnt even restart | 15:33 |
| blabla | what is the pid to kill it | 15:34 |
| shadeslayer | blabla: depends .... you could try killall ubiquity | 15:39 |
| shadeslayer | but it probably needs some time to format swap | 15:40 |
| blabla | its been going for hours | 15:40 |
| blabla | is there any chance its going to overright the mbr? | 15:42 |
| shadeslayer | well ... not if you specified it during the install | 15:42 |
| blabla | getting a bit scared | 15:42 |
| blabla | mmhh its frozen agian. stuck on skipping EDID probe due to cached edid | 15:44 |
| blabla | does anyone have a more detailed install tutorial than the one on "pen drive linux"? | 15:49 |
| shadeslayer | blabla: installing should be pretty straight forward :) | 15:50 |
| shadeslayer | hmm | 15:50 |
| shadeslayer | blabla: Kubuntu version please | 15:50 |
| blabla | 10.10 | 15:51 |
| blabla | just downloaded it | 15:51 |
| shadeslayer | ok ... did you check the md5sum and the install media? | 15:51 |
| blabla | mmhh | 15:51 |
| blabla | nop | 15:51 |
| shadeslayer | blabla: ok can you do that please? so that we can rule out that the problem isn't with the install media :) | 15:52 |
| shadeslayer | how did you download the CD btw? | 15:52 |
| blabla | bit torrent | 15:52 |
| shadeslayer | ok then the md5sum should be fine, but better recheck it just in case | 15:53 |
| shadeslayer | and then check your install media :) | 15:53 |
| cancuengt | Hi. I have a problem with dual monitors in kubuntu 10.10 Is here the right place to ask? | 15:56 |
| shane4ubuntu | cancuengt: | 15:57 |
| shane4ubuntu | cancuengt: yep | 15:57 |
| shadeslayer | cancuengt: yep :) | 15:57 |
| shadeslayer | cancuengt: which video card ? | 15:57 |
| cancuengt | ok, I have a Dell latitude 0830 with a docking station, and another monitor and when I log in there is always a configuration to mirror displays | 15:58 |
| cancuengt | VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile GM965/GL960 Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 0c) | 15:58 |
| shadeslayer | hmm | 15:58 |
| shadeslayer | cancuengt: uh, i don't get the issue ... | 15:58 |
| cancuengt | I have to configure manually every login to have an extended monitor | 15:58 |
| shadeslayer | ah | 15:58 |
| shadeslayer | well ... you need to configure xorg files to make it persistent i think | 15:59 |
| cancuengt | shadeslayer: Thats the problem, is a laptop, and the computer now is on the office but in my house I don't have the ds | 16:00 |
| shane4ubuntu | in amarok, how do I add a streaming radio that I have the link for? | 16:01 |
| shadeslayer | !dual | 16:01 |
| james147 | shane4ubuntu: drag and drop work? | 16:01 |
| shadeslayer | hmm | 16:01 |
| shane4ubuntu | james147: hmm, perhaps, would I drop it in a playlist and save it? | 16:02 |
| cancuengt | another thing. Always, the task panel goes on the vga display instead of the laptop when I move the display to the other side. And there is no way (that i vounded ) to set it on a display I choose | 16:02 |
| cancuengt | How do I do that? | 16:02 |
| * james147 would try dragging it to the currently playing list... then do anything else from there | 16:03 | |
| shane4ubuntu | hmm, doesn't like that, but I'm dragging it as text | 16:03 |
| shane4ubuntu | cancuengt: are you using ati or nvidia? or what setup do you have? | 16:05 |
| shadeslayer | shane4ubuntu: intel card | 16:06 |
| cancuengt | shane4ubuntu: Additional Drivers (jockey-kde I guess) says that I'm usign no propietary drivers. How do I foudn if I really have the chance to use it | 16:09 |
| cancuengt | (I really have no problem with that) | 16:09 |
| shane4ubuntu | cancuengt: I don't know anything about intel sorry. | 16:09 |
| shane4ubuntu | james147: ok, saved just the link as a m3u file, failed, changed the extension to asx, failed, changed it to asf and it is reading, but nothing is happening | 16:10 |
| james147 | cancuengt: as far as I know all intel drivers are open source.... so they are already included | 16:10 |
| shadeslayer | i found this http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-188832.html | 16:10 |
| cancuengt | ok | 16:11 |
| shadeslayer | hmm not that link | 16:11 |
| shadeslayer | http://kubuntuforums.net/forums/index.php?topic=3095351.0 << | 16:11 |
| shadeslayer | but it's about 8.04 so i don't know if it still applies | 16:11 |
| cancuengt | shadeslayer: I mean that If I have to use private divers I don't mind. Any way. Any ideas on this two problems I have with dual monitors | 16:11 |
| shane4ubuntu | james147: it is a link that ends in asx, any ideas? vlc can play it, but I would like it incorporated into amarok so I can just click on that and it plays. | 16:11 |
| shadeslayer | cancuengt: nah .. intel provides free drivers for ubuntu, but you could try them out and see if they work for you | 16:12 |
| james147 | shane4ubuntu: what is the link? (never really played with internet streams) | 16:12 |
| shane4ubuntu | http://www.bbnradio.org/WindowsMediaDotComASXLinks/wmspanish.asx | 16:12 |
| shane4ubuntu | gotta love a link like that! WINDOWSMEDIAdOtCOM lol | 16:13 |
| james147 | shane4ubuntu: heh, crashes amarok when i click on it :p | 16:13 |
| shane4ubuntu | well, I guess that is my answer | 16:14 |
| shane4ubuntu | I guess I'll just use it with vlc, but I would love to be able to save it in amarok and just click to play it. | 16:14 |

| shane4ubuntu | ok, somewhere along the line my desktop thing has disappeared in KDE, the desktop thing that showed the contents of the desktop folder any thoughts?? | 16:20 |
| blabla | yeah | 16:20 |
| shadeslayer | blabla: install media is fine too? | 16:21 |
| shadeslayer | shane4ubuntu: add the folder view widget | 16:21 |
| shane4ubuntu | shadeslayer: ahhh, thanks! I kept looking for desktop, never would have found that folder view. :) | 16:22 |
| shadeslayer | np :) | 16:23 |
| blabla | shadeslayer: the md5 on the cd is actually diffrent | 16:23 |
| shadeslayer | :) | 16:23 |
| blabla | shadeslayer: but i have burn 2 cd already :( | 16:23 |
| shadeslayer | blabla: you used the Check install media from the boot media right? | 16:23 |
| shadeslayer | blabla: use a pendrive? | 16:24 |
| blabla | shadeslayer: there is a md5 file on the cd and i used the md5 of the website to check it agenst. i never check a md5 before | 16:27 |
| shadeslayer | nah that's not it ... | 16:27 |
| shadeslayer | blabla: ok when you boot the CD, there are various options there | 16:27 |
| shadeslayer | the first one is to boot the CD itself | 16:27 |
| shadeslayer | the one below that is to check the install media for defects | 16:28 |

| shane4ubuntu | when I open a file with kate, and then click on another file in kate, the first file I opened disappears, and it seems like file 2 opens over top of file 1, but I don't see tabs, or anything??? | 16:53 |
| Mamarok | shane4ubuntu: did you activate the tab in the settings? | 16:54 |
| james147 | shane4ubuntu: kate ot kwrite? | 16:55 |

| shane4ubuntu | kate | 16:56 |
| shane4ubuntu | Mamarok: I don't see what you mean, in the settings, I don't see a tab option | 16:56 |
| james147 | shane4ubuntu: there is a tab "Documents" on the side of kate which lists all open documents | 16:56 |
| shane4ubuntu | james147: ohh, when I click on the documents button, now I can see the options | 16:57 |
| james147 | shane4ubuntu: there are also plugins that add a tabbar as well in kates settings | 16:57 |
| shane4ubuntu | james147: thanks! I didn't see that because when you click on the documents button everything is hidden, that is how mine was, I opened and closed kate probably 10 times, trying to figure that out. | 16:58 |
| shane4ubuntu | I love the split view option | 16:58 |

| rtdos | is there a way to free up or clean ram ? my just checked kinfo center and my ram is below 15% available (i just upgraded from 2 Gig to 4 Gig) | 23:31 |
| maco | rtdos: how much of that is cache? | 23:31 |
| maco | empty ram is wasted ram | 23:32 |
| maco | cached ram makes things open and load faster | 23:32 |
| rtdos | 1.26 disk cache | 23:32 |
| CaptainApathy | rtdos: you're fine then | 23:32 |
| rtdos | i don't have to worry about physical ram like i do when in windoze? | 23:33 |
| CaptainApathy | rtdos: linux and (modern)windows will use extra ram to store frequently loaded files in memory so you don't have to read from disk | 23:33 |
| CaptainApathy | when that ram is needed, those files get flagged as not loaded, and the ram is made available to the application needing memory | 23:34 |
| rtdos | ok, because kinfo center is telling me that i have 837 MB free physical | 23:34 |
| rtdos | with 4 gig physical, 837 mb free is not low ? | 23:34 |
| CaptainApathy | rtdos: if you have 1.26 gig in cache, you're fine. | 23:35 |
| CaptainApathy | when you're thinking about free memory, add the amount in the cache into what's free. | 23:35 |
| === MuzerAway is now known as Muzer | ||
| rtdos | oh, ok. because kinfo is telling me i have 6.3 Gig free. | 23:36 |
| CaptainApathy | because if need be, that memory's available for use, it's just being used to increase disk IO | 23:36 |
