[00:00] foormea: maybe you'll have to set some additional permissions for group 2468... if the different user is always you, on one machine you could set the id to match the other, but it's not necessary [00:01] i think having 1000:2468 on the system that is previously 1000:1000 and changing group rights on the hard drive might be more convenient, what do you think? === mren is now known as mren|off [00:02] i never had this problem before, it's a silly issue to have ^^ === lautaro is now known as a-b-c [00:04] is anyone runninc conky?

[00:16] How do I set up Amarok to play files on Click, I don't want it to add to queue [00:21] hi... I've another harddrive on which I would liek to install Windows XP but I only have an .img file for installer. is there anyway to install that to the 2nd hard drive without burning it to a disc? [00:21] :D [00:22] .img like iso or like image from a partition? [00:22] i think like iso :D [00:24] surunveri: i'm doig that right now... it's a pain... if your machine has a cd, just burn it (mine doesn't..) [00:24] :D [00:38] hmm [00:39] alright im trying to burn this with K3b but it asks for an empty medium despite that I've an empty CD in the drive [00:39] is the CD large enough for the image? [00:39] yeah [00:40] the .iso file is 558mb the CD says 700mb [00:41] and k3b says it's 581mb [00:41] but I can select aburn medium [00:41] m'kay. I spent an hour trying to figure that out one time only to realize I was trying to put a DVD image on a CD [00:41] alright... [00:41] :DD [00:42] well i could be doing something equally foolish but seriously im tired of trying to figure out what's wrong. do i've to read another manual to use this program? do i've to fix it somehow before it does what it's supposed to? Welcome to linux world [00:42] :DD [00:45] hmm [00:45] it could be that for some reason the drive doesnt recognize the CD [00:45] i've to test another disc just incase it's the drive hat's broken [00:45] it's been a while since i last usedit [00:46] well it did succesfully read this audio cd so i geuss it's working [00:48] so.. it's pretty much narrowed down to === heitor is now known as absent [00:48] A) me not being able to use K3b correctly B) cd somehow broken/not compatible with drive C) and K3b just not working like a sane person would expect it to work === absent is now known as jstfallen [00:49] since I just unwrapped the CD it's probably not B) [00:49] and it's down to A) and C) so.. anyone familiar with this k3b thing? [00:49] :D === jstfallen is now known as bombhawk [00:51] hmm [00:52] k3b or the drive doesnt recognize the CD as a proper medium... anyone? [00:53] surunveri: I vote that its C [00:55] surunveri: are you sure you are trying to burn a cd and not a dvd (desipte the size)? try manually selecting burn a cd.. [00:56] yes I'm and K3b just recognized the CD as a medium. a popup suddenly appeared. I dont think i did anything though :D [00:57] hmm i tried to start burning the disc and it says medium or burner does not support burning at 4x speed? seriously? :D [00:59] surunveri: when you insert the cd does the Notifcation and Jobs recognize it [00:59] hmm it says switching to 2x and now it started burningat 3.4x [01:00] oh well.. if it works i dont care. but considering how smoothly it has gone so far i aint got my hopes up :DD [01:16] How do I set up Amarok to play files on click, instead of adding to queue [01:18] How do I set up Amarok to play files on click, instead of adding to queue? === protv_ is now known as protv === protv is now known as protv_ === protv_ is now known as protv === protv is now known as protv_ === protv_ is now known as protv [01:19] Is there ANYONE who does tech support around here?

[11:03] lol nope i wasn't done with it yet, she did'nt either :( [11:04] Guest74186: then no... take from this experience: always... ALWAYS... save your work [11:04] it dosnt have to be finished for you to save it... [11:06] James147: I have verified the md5sum: it's fine [11:06] hmm lol i guess i better start on it again, anyways thanks for the tip. this is going to be a long day :( [11:06] Guest74186: next time save the document regulerly [11:07] And make backups. [11:07] Guest74186: even if you save it once and the program crashes you have a change at recovering changes... but you need to save it... [11:07] i'll definitely keep that in mind, trust me on that. btw any chance of it being in some temp folder :( [11:08] Guest74186: might still be in ram.... but it will probally take more then 4 hours to figure out how to get it back and even then its not likly you will revocer everything [11:10] oh man i worked so hard on it, anyways i guess i should quit whining and get back now. thanks anyway james, bbye now [11:10] Why is someone not saving a four hours work? [11:10] Dunno. [11:10] Insane. [11:11] By the way, what is the reason behind the fact that Kubuntu doesn't allow shortcuts on the desktop like GNOME? [11:11] Arecibo: what do you mean by that? [11:11] Arecibo: desktop icons? you can. [11:12] Arecibo: either us the folder view widget... or set the activity type to the folder view [11:12] James147: It doesn't allow me to place a shortcut on the Kubuntu desktop, I can only make shortcuts in the Desktop Folder. [11:12] James147: Not that I really mind, I was just wondering why [11:12] Arecibo: it because the desktop is a container for widgets on the default kde desktop... not a file structure [11:13] Arecibo: the Folder view widget is a widget that is basicaly a view of a folder (like what the desktop use to be) this approch is far more felxable as it dosnt restrict you to one folder to view but as many as you can fit on the screen :0 [11:14] Arecibo: you ca always use the Folder view activity to revert to the old style behaviour :) but there is little point unless you dont like change [11:15] James147: I don't mind trying something new, I was just wondering. I was very anti Linux once because it wasn't user friendly in my opinion. I really disliked Ubuntu 8.10 [11:15] James147: After a while I gave it another shot, and I installed Ubuntu 10.10 [11:15] Arecibo: you can also place icon widgets to any file on the default desktop... [11:16] James147: I must say things have changed. Then I found out that I can use both GNOME and KDE whenever I want to, so I installed the kubuntu-desktop package [11:16] James147: I must say that I like the K Desktop Environment better than GNOME for some reason [11:16] Arecibo: :) I find this approch more natural... that is if you dont depend on the desktop just being a nother folder :) [11:17] James147: True. When I found out about the desktop cube thingy, I was constantly scrolling up and down switching workspaces for sh*ts n giggles. xD [11:17] hi [11:17] Arecibo: I like it better because its far more felxable and is capable of things that gnome just cannot do [11:17] im having trouble trying to burn this disc with k3b [11:17] :D [11:18] James147: Too bad that when I try to activate the Explosion effect, I get a message that says Explosion couldn't be activated [11:18] btw is there some kind of autosave function in open office and libreoffice [11:18] sony_: I think so... but it will require you to save the document at least once so it know where to auto save to [11:20] What's you favourite letter in the alphabet? [11:21] x probably [11:21] And you, James147? [11:21] i like how it's used in the word xerox [11:21] :P [11:23] I bet that James147's favourite letter is K ;P [11:23] what makes you so that? [11:23] Arecibo: wouldnt say K... but I dont really know :) never thorught about it [11:23] re [11:23] lol we should really move to kubuntu-offtopic [11:23] sony_: yeah :) [11:24] Probably [11:24] If only my sound problem with PulseAudio was somehow solved, then I wouldn't have to use Windows anymore [11:24] I like it how Kubuntu boots within 3 seconds and is actually ready for use when you see the desktop [11:25] As opposed to Windows where you have to wait 5 minutes before all **** in the tray is loaded. [11:25] If I could somehow install winXP then I wouldnt have to use kubuntu anymore. I like the way how everything is compatible with windows and doesnt require reading a pile of manuals to use 8D [11:26] Well, it's true that Ubuntu/Kubuntu still requires a lot of messing around before you finally get it to work [11:27] yeah i mean seriously.. kubuntu/ubuntu is free. maybe a bit more secure.. possibly more versatile for programming or stuff like that which I do not know of [11:27] untrue .... it works out of the box for me [11:27] but for teh average user.. jsut that 90% of all software is made for windows [11:28] is like a huge setback [11:28] :D [11:28] that i agree with [11:28] but then again.. setting up XP so taht it's secure.. is something even i can do [11:28] surunveri: but 99% of software the average user wont use [11:28] :D [11:28] Well shadeslayer there are two kinds of users: Those who are fortuante enough to have a working installation right out of the box, and those who have these annoying problems with their webcam/sound/microphone/graphics [11:29] hehehe [11:29] tbh i've used kubuntu for 1 year and [11:29] surunveri: and kubuntu comes out of the box with more of what a user would use... unlike windows where you need to go out and buy more software just to get basic useage out of it [11:29] What would happen if a user has never seen Windows, worked a year with Kubuntu and now have to work with Windows. What would he say about Windows? [11:29] yeah like.. what? [11:29] :D [11:29] James147: All software is free. Trust me. Yarr harr and a bottle of rum! ;D [11:29] Graf_Westerholt: i'd really like to find out [11:30] Me too [11:30] Arecibo: but windows still dosnt come with basic functonalty... like a word processor [11:30] Most people know Windows, they know how to work with it and know programs. [11:30] btw anyone using KDE PIM 4.5.94 from experimental? [11:30] openoffice works on windows too :D [11:30] James147: True. Anyway, I've booted from the usb again with the alternate install, and it still doesn't work :( [11:30] plus it's actually easier to install on windows if you dont have it ready on linux [11:30] surunveri: but my point is that it dosnt come with windows... [11:31] yeah.. so what [11:31] it's not what OS is about [11:31] OS is just there so you can use the computer.. not a self-purpose :D [11:31] When I have to use Windows I hate the install routines, the reboots and KDE :) [11:31] *miss KDE [11:31] :) [11:31] htat it causes you troubel is much more grave than not having everything ready :D [11:32] James147: Help one of Microsoft's enslaved drones escape from its prison cell with Windows and escort him to the planet Kubuntu by helping him with a failing live installer >.< [11:32] surunveri: really? "Kapckagekit: search libreoffice > install > apply > wait" vs "Open internet exlopere ... search google for libreoffice > find download link on the site > wait for downloads > run the installer > click next about 10 times untill you ahve answered all questions > let windows know "Yes you really really really do want to install this peice of software" > wait for it to install" [11:33] yeah really [11:33] ^^ O yeah.. then some times reboot at the end :) [11:33] surunveri: how else do you install on windows? [11:34] it's easier because to do that on windows you dont need to know anything [11:34] exactly as you said.. google, download, install. and pretty much works with the same way.. and if u dont have it in your repositories whatever it is you're trying to install [11:34] you're going to have to figure things out [11:35] i mean.. everything else works pretty much the same way [11:35] meanwhile when you do that on kubuntu [11:35] Both the Ubuntu/Kubuntu and Windows way of installing things has its pro's and cons. [11:35] surunveri: for the average user the repo has everything they need to use [11:35] really? [11:35] are you sure about that? [11:35] Well [11:35] One thing that annoyed me [11:35] I wanted to install the simple compiz thingy [11:36] simple compiz config manager? [11:36] Arecibo: compiz simple? [11:36] Yep, and it basically said "There are missing dependencies but I won't bother installing them" [11:36] :p [11:37] Arecibo: you know what the dependiencies are? [11:37] that are missing? [11:37] Ehm, no I don't know. But that's not the issue right now [11:37] I still have problems with my sound on my desktop [11:37] Why is KPackageKit installing OpenOffice as update? [11:37] Either I have sound through my speakers only and my headset mic works (no sound through headset) or my speakers and headphones work but my headset mic doesn't work... [11:38] alsa-base.conf: options snd-hda-intel model=auto (= Only sound through speakers, headphones do not work, mic OK) options snd-hda-intel model=generic (= Sound through speakers and headphones at will, headset mic doesn't work) [11:39] I still haven't been able to fix that problem. [11:39] Arecibo: try setting it as the model for your sound card [11:39] VIA VT2020 [11:40] anyway it seems burning this windows installer on this disc doesnt seem to wrk [11:40] Onboard chip for the ASUS Crosshair IV Formula mobo [11:40] i tried that last night too but.. there was some issues [11:40] :D [11:40] Arecibo: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto [11:40] idk what's the problem :D [11:40] James147: Tried it, didn't work (or maybe I did something wrong) [11:40] how can check if it burned anything on the disc? :D [11:41] oo... saya use auto :p [11:42] hmm [11:42] kubuntu is like ubuntu with a kick [11:42] .. to the groin [11:42] :DDDDD [11:42] Actually Kubuntu is like Ubuntu with a K [11:42] surunveri: if you dont like it your not forced to use it [11:42] :D [11:43] surunveri, you don't have to use Kubuntu or Linux at all. If you do not want to spend time getting to know the OS and learning how to work with it, you're free to use Windows. [11:43] sorry i was just making a joke [11:43] :D [11:44] surunveri: But I'm trying to get some assistance here [11:44] yeah i wish i were free to use windows [11:44] me too [11:44] In fact im trying to use k3b to burn a CD and I dont know if the problem is in the drive, CD, k3b, me, image file or any combination of them [11:44] ..and its a windows installer [11:44] so yeah [11:45] :D [11:45] surunveri: 42 [11:48] so any idea.. i start writing the disc it says that 4x burn speed not supported then switches to 2x [11:48] I have no idea [11:48] after the writing is seemingly done it check the written data which fails and says unable to read sector0 [11:49] it's an isofile made with ccd2iso from a clonecd image file [11:49] im not sure if that's ok to do either [11:49] in anycase the mb doesnt support bootinf from usb/flash so i've to boot from HD or CD.. but for some unknown reason this CD isnt working [11:50] so.. im trapped.. with dear friend K.. it's a been a year so far. [11:51] but to hmm say soemthing positive about kubuntu well.. yeah. it reboots quickly, and despit not setting up any security other than the DSL modem firewall at default settings i've not had any trouble [11:51] :D [11:51] but from the start it was like.. ok i wantd to use webbrowser.. had install java. wasnt that easy [11:51] :D [11:51] and so on [11:52] i cant even reduce mouse sensitivity so that I could draw which is kind of sad [11:55] surunveri: about writing CD,try cleaning the drive [11:56] so guys just out of curosity how big is your resume i mean is it like a page long or maybe two [12:09] Is there know issue with Audio, specific Realtec alc892 intergrated on a gygabyte mobo? Just completed fresh install of Kubuntu 11.04 and have no Audio [12:10] Did work perfect in Ubuntu 11.04 under unity & clasic any help apreciated :) [12:12] Hi anyone able to help with audio problem.. [12:14] hello, I am steffen - unfamiliar with irc. I have problems with kontact: since several months, the _birthdays_ from addressbook are not displayed in kalendar. Any help? [12:15] akonadi running without problems, birthday ressource is activated, showing "green" [12:17] smlk, I have the same problem but no solution. [12:40] i cleaned the drive [12:40] it could be broken, or it could be k3b [12:40] i dont know [12:40] is there anyway to do that install without having it on a cd? [12:42] surunveri: you can install from an usb stick [12:42] or with the help if another pc via pxe [12:44] yeah but Bios doesnt support booting from [12:44] usb [12:45] pxe? [12:45] i've kubuntu on 1 hd and another empty hd.. and id like to install that windows to the other one [12:45] pxe? [12:45] network [12:45] if your pc can run kubuntu, it should also be able to boot from network [12:46] i dont know what that means or how it works :D [12:47] it means your pc searches the network, and one pc says "hey guys wanna boot from me?" and so the bios asks you to do this and will boot the kubuntu-installer or even the whole system over network [12:47] but i dont know how it works :D [12:48] maybe ubuntu also got something like bfo (boot.fedoraproject.org) [12:53] Hi, Any one available to help with Sound Issue on new Kubuntu install [12:54] ? [12:54] alright [12:54] can someoen help me with installing DOS on the blank HD [12:54] ?

[14:12] hey amichair [14:14] amichair, well, yo're still copying files tp the other pc whether it's from the repos or your pc...I ssh into my other linux pc to update and upgrde from the cli [14:15] true, but download from repo has different speed/bandwidth implications than over tha LAN... [14:16] I was wondering if it might be possible to copy over the apt cache or something like that, so that apt will already find a valid local copy and won't need to download anew [14:17] amichair, I'm quite sure it's possible, but I've never really looked into it. [14:18] rsync , I beleive [14:18]
