RaskHey guys, me again.  On a totally new system this time.06:46
RaskAnyone want to help with some first-timer woes/06:46
Rask*?06:46
RaskMy system is only booting about half the time and I can't for the life of me figure out why.06:47
RaskHow can I make it boot with a nice console screen instead of the information-free splash screen?06:48
macoRask: turn off the "quiet splash" stuff in grub06:48
macolemme find the file06:48
macoi assume you mean permanently?06:48
RaskI'd like to, but I dont even -see- GRUB.06:48
macoif you hold shift during boothe grub menu comes up and you can edit it for just that boot06:48
macootherwise...06:48
RaskOh, ok, let me try holding shift06:49
macoRask: edit GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash" in /etc/default/grub06:49
macothen run "sudo update-grub"06:49
maco(if you want it to be a semi-permanent change)06:49
RaskOkay, I see grub and I'm in the little editor06:50
RaskShould I just backspace over the "quiet splash" part?06:50
macoyup06:50
RaskOkay, we got through it this time.06:51
RaskOk, so to make this permanent...06:51
RaskWhat should I change GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT to?06:52
RaskJust blank?06:54
RaskOkay, trying blank.06:57
RaskYay, it works X)07:01
RaskI has some video woes, though.  System does -not- like having two monitors plugged in.07:01
RaskAnd the main monitor is not being supported at its proper resolution.07:01
RaskIs that because nouveau doesn't know how?07:03
Rask...Anyone still here? :(07:11
Rask....kpackagekit just segfaulted?  the fuck?07:12
lostsonso use the command line07:13
Raskwhat? o_o07:13
Raskuse it for what/07:13
lostsonwell kpackagekit is just a front end for apt07:14
lostsonand apt you can conveniently use from the command line07:14
RaskI know, but... I wasn't doing anything with it and it segfaulted.07:14
RaskIs that anywhere near normal?07:14
lostsoni wouldnt think so07:14
Rask*sigh*  Okay, we'll not question that.  X.x07:15
RaskAnyway07:18
RaskThe main oddness I'm trying to deal with here is that something seems to be awry with my video07:18
RaskI plug in two monitors and one remains in sleep mode while the other's not being recognized07:18
Rasker07:19
dark_有人吗07:19
RaskI mean to say, I can't set it above 1280x102407:19
dark_chinese room??07:20
RaskIt seems very strange to me that nouveau would be unable to support either of these things, but... how do I know what video driver I'm using anyway?07:20
RaskAnd how do I get the binary nvidia driver in?07:20
lostsonrun the additional drives module07:21
lostsonthat will install the latest nvidia drivers for you then setup yoru twin monitors07:21
Rasklostson: What's the additional drives module?07:28
lostsonshould be in the system section of the menu07:31
lostsondo you not get a notification that additional drivers are available ?07:32
Rasklostson: Nope.07:32
ownerubuntu07:32
owner:)07:32
Rasklostson: Is it in a different place in kubuntu versus ubuntu?07:32
lostsonmust be07:33
Rask...Am I shooting myself in the foot by using Kubuntu?  :/  It's really frustrating trying to find support for it.07:34
lostsonno i dont think so07:35
RaskWell, anyway..  for lack of any better ideas, I installed the nvidia-current package.  Does that select it or do I have to do something else to make X use it?07:35
lostsonthat should install and set it up you will have to reboot to get it to work07:36
RaskOkay, here we gooooo.07:36
lostsonok07:36
Raskhrf.  No difference...07:37
RaskOne monitor out of two, wrong resolutions.07:38
Raskhow can I find out whether the device is using the driver?07:38
lostsonwell to get both monitors to work you would have to either edit your xorg.conf or use the nvidia-settings tool07:38
Rasknvidia-xconfig?07:38
lostsonhit alt+F2 and type in nvidia-settings and hit enter07:39
Rask"The control display is undefined; please run `nvidia-settings --help' for usage information.07:39
lostsonthat should bring up a little app that you can setup your nvidia card they way you wantn it07:40
Rasklostson: It's not bringing anything up except that message about the control display being undefined.07:42
lostsonsomething isnt right then either nvidia didnt install right or something else is jacked up07:43
lostsoncuz when you hit alt+F2 at the top of the screen you should get a run dialog and if you type in nvidia-settings it should bring that app up if it isnt something is wrong somewhere07:44
PhiloTrying to access an audio file on this website - http://government.georgetown.edu/tocquevilleforum/90291.html   - I can't seem to find a program that can open it. Any ideas?07:44
lostsonso either nvidia isnt installed or something else is configured wrong07:44
PhiloWell, here's the link - https://mediapilot.georgetown.edu/sharestream2gui/getMedia.do?action=streamMedia&mediaPath=0d2117cd2650ee6d0126d8cac6c4064f&cid=0d21b6201df9d7e6011e20cfb5eb0052&userFrom07:44
RaskUrgh.  Okay, I just rebooted and X didn't start.  :(07:45
PhiloAnyone have any ideas?07:46
RaskPhilo: Tried VLC?07:48
PhiloWould it be able to do a streamed file?07:48
PhiloOr network stream*07:48
RaskSure.07:49
PhiloGiving it a download, hopefully it works.07:50
PhiloIt says it's a .do  - whatever that is.07:50
RaskIt's likely a redirect.07:51
PhiloAh07:51
PhiloNope, no-go on that route as well.07:52
RaskSorry, that was my only idea. D:07:53
PhiloThey should really just put those things in .mp3s..07:53
PhiloVLC does not support the audio or video format "undf". Unfortunately there is no way for you to fix this.07:55

rtdos2 questions: how do I install LAMP from the command line and how do setup my installation to allow me to play / view DVD's ?15:15
shadeslayer_rtdos: there's a meta package for lamp15:15
shadeslayer_!lamp15:16
ubottuLAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)15:16
rtdosshadeslayer_ what does it mean different in edgy++ ?15:16
BluesKaj!medibuntu | rtdos15:17
ubotturtdos: medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org15:17
shadeslayer_rtdos: all releases above Edgy15:17
shadeslayer_and that ^^15:17
rtdosthanks shadeslayer15:17
rtdosthx blueskaj15:17
shadeslayer_more specifically you need vlc and/or libdvdcss15:17
BluesKajrtdos, after installing the medibuntu repos , just make sure you have libdvdcss2 installed , then you can play drm protected dvds etc15:18
rtdosthat's what i thought, shadeslayer_ but i can't find the ubuntu website page that references it.15:18
shadeslayer_rtdos: install libdvdcss215:18
rtdoslibdvdcss2  - ok got it. gonna go try it now.15:18

briandw1969Thanx Guys15:20
mallikhi15:20
briandw1969blueskaj!15:20
briandw1969ill get it one these days lol15:21
mallikI like Kubuntu. But, I want to keep only PIM software and get rid of anything else. How can I do that?15:21
malliknone responded.15:23
shadeslayer_mallik: are you on gnome?15:23
shadeslayer_mallik: just install kdepim packages ...15:24
shadeslayer_but i'm pretty sure they will pull in KDE Libraries and friends which are required for it to work15:24
mallikI have both. Gnome on my hard disk, Kubunut on my vbox. But I am interested kubuntu only for PIM and social networking. All other desktop apps, i dont need.15:24
shadeslayer_yeah just install the PIM Packages15:25
mallikits like a scaled down to PIM version kubuntu, so that I keep my PIM safe somewhere else than my regular desktop. Hope you understand what I mean.15:25
shadeslayer_kdepim should do it15:25
shadeslayer_mallik: you can run kdepim in gnome, if that's what you're talking about15:26
mallikI already have kdepim, my point is, i want to have only kdepim on my kubuntu desktop, nothing esle.15:26
shadeslayer_oh15:26
shadeslayer_that's not possible15:26
mallikhmmm :(15:27
shadeslayer_you could remove a few packages, but you need most of them for a GUI env15:27
shadeslayer_for eg. you could remove rekonq15:27
mallikyes, I got your point.15:27
* james147 suggests: 1) install kdepim on ubuntu and use it directly without a vm, 2) remove any package you dont need from the kubuntu vm (not as easy as it sounds) 3) get a distro you can build from the ground up and only install what you wnat (like arch)15:28
malliki found that kdepim and dependencies come around 150mb, in that case whats the size of UI out of 700mb? cant i strip off few mbs?15:29
mallikguess i like the 3 rd one.15:29
james147^^ and 4) dont worry about saving a mb of space in a vm ^^15:29
mallikactually I was looking at tinycore15:29
mallikwell its not only mb, but any services eating up into my cpu/memory.15:30
james147mallik: if you are running a vm just to use kdepim, that why are you worring about space? you already duplicating the coreutils and everything else.... i hiighly suggest you dont use a vm if you want to save space... kdepim can be installed on gnome and used nativly in ubuntu15:31
james147^^ space and resources15:31
mallikthanks for your responses.15:32
james147^^ hell, installing kubuntu-desktop inside ubuntu will take up less pace and resources then useing a vm... and then you can chose a full kde or gnome enviroment and use all the applicaitons in both15:33
mallikJames, I take your point, actually I have installed it the way you suggest in your latest. For me, my PIM, my journals, events, calendars should be able to be isolated from regular stuff. thats why I just thought if I can scale down.15:35
mallikwell it seems to be a difficult job.15:36
mallikI  might think to put kdepim on tinycore and see how it goes.15:36
james147mallik: why do they need to be  isolated?15:37

samadis gnome3 better than kde ?20:35
yofel*that* is a very subjective question - also I think they're hard to compare since gnome3 isn't even released yet20:36
samadi mean like beauty wise/ ease of use.. the website has option to download it20:36
samadis it worth it ?20:37
yofelno idea, haven't tried it yet, I'll try it once it comes out20:37
samadits coming out in april 11 i think; with ubuntu 11.04..20:37
yofelit's supposed to come out in april yes, but ubuntu 11.04 won't have gnome320:38
samadwhy ever not ?20:38
samadit would be stable by then.. ?20:39
yofelyou'll have to ask the ubuntu release managers that - they decided to go with unity for 11.0420:39
samadoh well; anyone know a GUI program or sumthing to edit GRUB2 list of OS coz its got like a billion options right now :D20:40
samadi wouldn't mind commands as long as they arent excessive; i read sumthing about editing grub.cfg file20:41
agropesuspardus20:42
yofelsamad: that file isn't meant to be edited, you'll have to either edit /etc/default/grub for simple settings and the files in /etc/grub.d/ for more in-depth changes (the changes in /etc/grub.d/ are reset though I think when you get a grub update - not sure)20:44
