[00:00] OK Thanks. [00:00] This issue is on maverick... I had a power failure and X/kdm isn't coming up. I tried reinstalling the kernel, which rebuilt the nvidia module, but no help.

I press "OK" to exit the dialog box, for example, but if I reopen with "Edit..." immediately later it still shows that connection as not automatically connecting.

[21:16] oh no, ubuntu left us [21:16] o.o [21:17] masese: digikam and picasa can auto-import the pictures, or you can just open the camer's SD card in dolphin and drag and drop [21:19] the camera screeen showing some script reading "open my computer and locate the kodak downloader to run the software" [21:19] i think, ignore ur camera [21:20] let kubuntu do the thing [21:20] i guess that should be windows program [21:20] yeah.. [21:20] yeah, masese, does it show up as mass storage in the device notifer? [21:20] masese: if it does, just ignore the camera [21:20] masese: what kinda camera do you have? [21:21] kodak [21:22] more spcific [21:22] coming up in Home folder as kodak downloader. [21:23] if you open that do you see your pictures? [21:23] no [21:23] what is in there?

[21:32] masese: one other option, look and see if you have libgphoto2 installed. If not, that might work to read the camera [21:33] masese: yeah, you'd stick the SD card in the reader, then it would just show up as mass storage, simple like instead of dealing with the ceramas goofy operating system [21:33] ok [21:34] masese: best to you, I have to go [21:34] thanks [21:34] hi, trying out kubuntu natty, with upgrade to 4.6.2 as well.

[21:35] just press Kickoff button or w/e it is [21:35] and search for "edge" i guess [21:36] BlaXpirit: ah, I see that in kickoff. And I do get an active screen edgeds, but is that for just the corners? [21:38] yea, that's for the corners... not the cube rotate or slight [21:38] ummmm [21:38] maybe it's kwin effects [21:41] AHHHHH i think i know [21:41] reagle, go to pager plasmoid settings [21:41] huh, here they show edges with the edges and corners, mine only had corners http://genek.net/LinuxAdventures/installsetup/dtop.html [21:42] set row count = desktop count [21:43] where are pager plasmoid settings?

[22:19] lovre: when you say "work properly", what exactly are you trying to do with it? [22:21] marxjohnson: create/extract archives (zip, rar, tar, 7z, the common ones) [22:21] marxjohnson: because out-of-the-box it just says: cant find rar in PATH [22:21] marxjohnson: should i just install one by one manually? [22:21] If you're trying to create and extract RARs you'll need both rar and unrar, yes [22:22] I think one of them is proprietary, so they're not packaged together [22:22] marxjohnson: i see. And others installed separatly also? [22:23] It should do zip, tar, gz and bz out of the box [22:23] Im not certain about 7z but it's open source so i guess it does [22:26] if not install p7zip an p7zip-full and you should be OK [22:35] !info pacman [22:35] pacman (source: pacman): Chase Monsters in a Labyrinth.
