pkdask could you remind me how to check my display drivers?00:03
james147pk: *-dbg are debug packages, you only need them if you want to submit a backtrace form a crash to a bugreport00:07
pkgrrrr00:08
pkthat driver was pre installed00:08
pkSays I update it to run minecraft, but when I do that it causes all the issues I was having :[00:08
mbaiHi. "top -H" is supposed to indicate CPU usage for individual  threads. For each thread it looks like it gives a unique PID, which makes no sense to me. I thought only processes had their own PID.00:14
lente I use a german keyboard. The autocompletion in texmaker vanishes if I press buttons like AltGr or Strg. Is there a possibility to stop this behavior?00:17
lentembai: man 7 pthread says Threads do not share process IDs. (In effect, LinuxThreads threads are implemented as processes which share more information than usual, but which do not share a common process ID.)00:18
mbailente: oh shlt00:19
=== mren is now known as mren|off
lentemabi: ?00:19
mbaijust a moment of enlightenment. I didn't realize that about linux threads although I've worked with them for a few years.00:21
mbailente: thanks00:23
lentembai: I dont know the old threadapi, but there where some differences compared to the LinuxThread api00:23
lentembai: your welcome00:24

livingdaylightjames147: any experience /recommendations regarding wine on kubuntu?08:58

james147 /upgrade to the latest08:59
james147http://appdb.winehq.org/ << is very helpful when trying to get applications to work08:59
livingdaylightjames147: I believe i am but got an app thatś not launching; hence thought i should perhaps downgrade? Seems the latest is not the most stable/or reliable for running everyinthg wine can do.08:59
james147livingdaylight: depends on what application09:00
james147some just dont work ^^09:00
livingdaylightjames147: this one definitely does. MT4 - have been running it on ubuntu for years.09:01
james147what version of whine?09:01

livingdaylightjames147: wine 1.2.2 on Ubuntu09:05
james147livingdaylight: latest is 1.3.x09:05
livingdaylightjames147: but 1.2.2 is running mt4 on ubuntu but 1.2 is not running it on kubuntu - thatś perplexing me09:06
james147weird :p you might want to ask on #winehq for better info09:06
livingdaylightjames147: if i've installed 1.2 from repos, and say want to install another version, needst I purge current installed version, or just remove or ignore even?09:07
livingdaylightyea, thought it could be a kubuntu (kde) quirk09:07
james147livingdaylight: not seen the gui your running make a difference to wine before09:08

kmanzooris Hardy Heron still supported ? i checked this on wikipedia. On kubuntu page it said it is not spported but on the ubuntu page it is mentioned that it is still supported.  I want to install the restricted extra - meaning i want to have the adobe flash. Should i upgrade all the way to 9.10 or i can keep on running Hardy Heron ?11:58
james147kmanzoor: ubuntu is supported, but the kde stuff in it isnt ^^11:58
james147kmanzoor: why not just upgrade to the latest version?11:59
kmanzoorwell if life is possible without upgrade then why not save some time and enjoy the good things in life12:00

james147jules__: :( yeah, thats one problem... though nowadays I use latex when i can :) looks much nicer then word documents through is more complicated to get use to12:17
jules__every IT-STudent learns how to use latex. Its too difficult for me and i dont need latex. I must use .doc. When i must write some seminar paper. I switch to window12:18
jules__but Ubuntu is so highly developed so that user can problemless connect to the internet by wlan. some years ago it was very complicated to config that12:19

kmanzoornot some -- at least one12:47
kmanzoorok i am going ahead with the instructions for upgrade from 8.4 to 9.1012:47
* james147 suggest upgrading to 10.04 after thats finished....12:48
jules__is it possible to upgrade from 8.4 to 10.10 by one step?12:48
kmanzoorthe instructions on ubuntu.com are advising against this jump for kubuntu users12:50
kmanzoorprobably because kubuntu 8.4 was not given LTS status12:51
jules__okie, because i have a cd with version 10.08 iand i must install 4 times to10.10 , xD12:51
james147jules__: why not grab a new cd :)12:52
jules__yes, i already have downloaded 2 cds with 10.10 but there is a big problem with GRUB12:52
james147what problem?12:53
jules__everytime i try to install from 10.10 cd, i can not find the boat loader for kubuntu12:53
jules__that is why I still keep the old version cd since 2 years12:53
james147jules__: but it should be possibly to upgrade from 10.04 to 10.1012:54
jules__yes i am now using 10.10 but i upgrade from 08.10 to 10.1012:56
jules__do you know why i can see yahoo website with konquerer?12:57

james147jules__: what version of konq?13:01
jules__from 10.10 cd/ and KDE 4.6.113:01
james147well, its working here ^^ try using the webkit back end (install  kpart-webkit) konw > view > view mode13:03
james147s/konw/konq13:03
jules__kpart-webkit?13:03
jules__via adept?13:03
james147jules__: yeah, it will allow konq to use webkit as a backend, and adept is no longer part of kubuntu, 10.10 uses kpackagekit instead :13:04

ryrychquant: a Qt problem?19:01
quantryrych: the menus on the left side have a gradient, that's what is supposed to appear on the right as well, I think, but it's probably a bug19:01
quantryrych: as far as I know, Firefox is GTK, but I'm not an expert on that19:01
ryrychquant: yes, I mean Qt curve or the lastest magic :)19:01
ryrycherr… newest19:02
quantryrych: looks to me like a pure Firefox bug, but I really wouldn't know19:02
ryrychquant: anyway, thanks for the confirmation. Sometimes there are problems with rendering the UI especially when you migrate from previous version of firefox. I had this problem today in the morning but removing the .mozilla helped19:04

m477same output21:19
m477tsimpson:21:19
tsimpsonm477: try with "-p -c 0 5805"21:20
m477tsimpson: http://wklej.org/id/498918/21:22
tsimpsonm477: then the process id is wrong21:22
m477y i see21:23
m477it changed21:23
m477but still is it same output21:23
m477http://wklej.org/id/498922/21:23
tsimpsonhow are you getting the PID?21:23
m477http://wklej.org/id/498924/21:24
m477tsimpson:21:24
tsimpsonthat's the PID of the grep you ran, not of xclock, and obviously grep exited after it finished21:25
m477oh21:25
m477then how can i get PID of process ?21:25
tsimpsonthat way, but xclock must be running21:26
m477tsimpson: but is it any way to check it without running the process?21:27
tsimpsonyou can check with "pidof -s xclock"21:28
tsimpsonif it doesn't show anything, xclock isn't running21:28
tsimpsonif it displays anything, it'll be the PID of xclock21:29
m477it doesnt21:29
tsimpsonthen xclock isn't running21:29
m477no21:30
m477other thing is im trying to see taskset --cpu-list and it shows me help21:31
tsimpson--cpu-list is the same as the -c option21:32
m477and i want to see then21:32
tsimpsonit doesn't list the CPUs, it takes a list of CPUs you give it21:32
m477and it doesnt21:32
m477oh21:32
m477so how can i see avalible processors numbers?21:33
tsimpsonit's the number or processors/cores you have21:33
m477or how many is there of them21:33
m477but im working on server21:33
m477and i dont know tht21:33
m477that21:33
m477or i want to just start two so i have to put "taskset -c 0,1" ?21:34
tsimpsonrun "egrep '^processor' /proc/cpuinfo" and see how many lines it prints21:35
m477ok i see21:35
tsimpsonfor -c you can use 0,1,2 or you can use 0-4 (For example)21:35
tsimpsonor both21:35
m477thanks21:35
m477but other thing is that command as you told "pidof -s xclock" doesnt work ;/21:36
m477i checked for other process21:36
m477and it doesnt show nything21:36
m477anything*21:36
tsimpsonm477: make sure the processes are running21:38
tsimpsontry "pidof -s bash" for instance21:38
tsimpsonor even "pidof -s pidof"21:38
m477tsimpson: it works, so it works for process which are running21:42
tsimpsonyes, that's what is does21:42
m477but i want know which doesnt21:43
tsimpsonif it doesn't show anything, then the process isn't running21:43
m477before i run process in taskset i want to know it PID21:43
m477do you know what i mean?21:44
tsimpsonthe PID gets assigned when a command is run, not before21:44
tsimpsonand it's always unique21:44
m477so at first i have to run process and then in taskset change processors order?21:44
tsimpsonyou run the command, get it's PID, and use that in taskset21:45
