[00:31] won't work on kubuntu? [00:31] pulse is kind [00:31] it ll work [00:31] but i dont know to help you [00:31] :) [00:31] what is pulse [00:31] when i right click on the vol icon it says select master channel [00:31] pulse is audio server in ubuntu [00:32] (naturally in kubntu also since that is same distro with other DE) [00:32] ok do i need to download the pulse drivers? [00:33] brb [00:33] just a sec [00:36] Newbiathon: are you here? [00:47] time to put Virtualbox back on I guess.... [00:55] hi can any one tell me how setup the fireweall on kubuntu [00:57] latinlover: firestarter is a decent frontend for setting up a firewall [00:58] is that somting i have to download? [01:00] latinlover: yes, unless you like editing text files :) do you have a router though? [01:01] yes i have the linksys router wrt610n [01:02] latinlover: then you already have a firewall with it... [01:03] you think thats enough ? [01:04] depends on what you think 'enough' is I guess.... it's enough for me [01:04] I'm not exactly a target for international espionage :) [01:06] you never know [01:06] I'm sure they're going to take down Canada with my blender files and random code :) [01:08] coud kubuntu get infected whit virus? [01:08] can someone please help me get my speakers to work in kubuntu [01:09] i have a sound blaster xtreme gamer card [01:10] and also at boot, i cannot choose whether to go to linux or win 7 [01:10] how do i fix this [01:10] win7 is on a seperate partition [01:10] latinlover: first... kubuntu has a basic firewall to begin with.... and your router helps more than you'd think. I'm sure that Kubuntu could get infected with a virus, but viruses for Linux are few and far between. And I've never heard tell of a machine getting infected, only 'possibilities' [01:11] Newbiathon: as for the boot problem.... try "sudo update-grub" [01:11] how do i enable the basic firewall on kubuntu? [01:12] latinlover: it's already enabled.... that firestarter program I suggested would allow you to tweak it, but it's not something to do unless you really know what you're doing [01:12] ok i upgraded grub [01:13] also i just tried a "kdesudo upgrade" [01:13] and got ... [01:13] QInotifyFileSystemWatcherEngine::addPaths: inotify_add_watch failed: No such file or directory [01:13] QFileSystemWatcher: failed to add paths: /home/greyboy/.config/ibus/bus [01:13] Newbiathon: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. [01:13] oh sorry [01:13] ok thankyou for you help [01:13] latinlover: say you had a web server.... you might want to close ports for IRC, MSN, etc. closing things you don't need is just a safety precaution. [01:14] Newbiathon: should be "sudo apt-get upgrade" [01:14] oh my bad [01:14] Newbiathon: but might want to run "sudo apt-get update" first [01:14] anyone know how to change the kde menu to the old style? I find the new style slow and bulky. [01:15] kubuntu dont detect my iphone 4 [01:15] now it is saying need to get 0 B/2,151 kb of archives [01:16] and any help with the sound? [01:16] im liking kubuntu, but would like it better with sound lol [01:16] shane2peru: if you unlock your widgets (right-click on the kde menu icon at the bottom, select "unlock widgets") then right-click on the kde icon again, and select "Switch to classic menu style" [01:17] SIR_Taco: ahh, ok, thanks!!! And switching back is that simple too? [01:17] shane2peru: yep [01:17] gotta love it! [01:17] thanks SIR_Taco [01:17] np [01:18] sweet that is nice. I like that old style menu, it is old, but it is efficient. [01:18] latinlover: I do not believe that the IPhone4 will work via USB as it does in Windows.... Apple locks it down and doesn't release drivers [01:18] sound help pleeeeeeeeeeeeaaase [01:18] Newbiathon: what sound card again? (I am only one man lol) [01:19] xtreme gamer sound blaster [01:19] it works on ubuntu!!!! [01:19] thanks sir taco [01:19] sit taco you the best!!!! [01:22] lol [01:22] Newbiathon: does any sound work? startup sound, anything? [01:22] no [01:23] want me to right click on the volume icon? [01:24] Newbiathon: in knosole, if you type "alsamixer" check to see if your volumes are up [01:24] under master channel there is a SB-xFi analog stereo button [01:24] front mi shows nothing [01:25] make sure at the bottom of the volume bars, it has "00" and is green and now "MM".... if it's "MM" use the arrow keys to highlight the volume control and hit "m" (to unmute) [01:25] might want to start some music while you mess with the settings a bit :) [01:28] still no sound [01:28] on youtube.com [01:28] latinlover: if it works in Ubuntu it should work on Kubuntu [01:28] the kmix controller [01:28] what master channel should it be on? === william is now known as Guest26376 === Guest26376 is now known as Shelbycub [01:29] when i right click the volume icon? [01:29] Newbiathon: where all the volumes up full in the alsamixer window? [01:29] yes [01:29] i hit f6 and went to sound blaster too [01:30] ooooh [01:30] do you have an on-board sound card? [01:30] hmmm dunno but prob [01:30] i think i disabled it in bios [01:31] well when you hit F6 what options do you have? [01:31] sec [01:32] default, 0 hda intel, 1 hda audio generic, 2 creative x-fi, enter device name [01:32] that is the options [01:33] Newbiathon: so your onboard soundcard isn't disabled... the quick and easy way is just to disable it in the BIOS.... will save time and energy [01:33] ok [01:33] maybe i restored defaults [01:33] brb [01:33] going to bios [01:33] 0 in the list is your default... [01:34] and he's gone haha [01:35] latinlover: http://amarok.kde.org/wiki/Media_Device:IPod#Supported_Devices is for amarok... but I guess you could install the program that you used in Ubuntu to get it working (Rythmbox maybe?) [01:39] can i remote control a windows computer on kubuntu? [01:39] latinlover: how so? like the remote assistance in windows? [01:40] sir_taco I love you [01:40] it works now [01:40] Newbiathon: lol [01:40] yes [01:40] good to hear [01:40] but the grub update didn't work for logging into win 7 [01:40] i don't know why it won't prompt which os to go into [01:41] guess i could always install wine [01:41] but kind of bad for gaming [01:41] i like to use win 7 for gaming [01:43] is wine for kde? [01:43] latinlover: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=155527 ... but if you install krfb (sudo apt-get install krfb) it should give you options for it [01:43] or just gnome? [01:43] Newbiathon: use the paste.kde.org to paste what your "sudo update-grub" output is [01:44] see that... a virus just entered #kubuntu... and immediately quit :P [01:45] who is virus? [01:45] how do i pull up the output to paste [01:45] just type in kdesudo update-grub? [01:45] Newbiathon: if you highlight it (click and drag) and then middle-click it into the paste part of the past.kde.org [01:46] Newbiathon: nooo.... Alt-F2 -> type in "konsole" -> enter -> type in "sudo update-grub" [01:47] ok i pasted [01:47] http://paste.kde.org/76591/ [01:48] SIR_Taco: can you see it? [01:49] sir taco do you know how get the redhat OS ? [01:50] should be able to get it on the linux site [01:51] Newbiathon: odd that it's not detecting your windows drive [01:51] oh oh there is a /dev option in the boot priority [01:51] latinlover: redhat.com I would imagine [01:51] i disabled it [01:51] might have something to do with it [01:51] Newbiathon: maybe haha [01:52] i just didn't know what it was [01:52] ill try to set it to 1st [01:52] see what happens [01:52] brb [01:53] hi all [01:53] hi andreb [01:53] hi taco [01:53] i am trying to configure bind and it am at a lost [01:54] i chrooted it and not it doenst want to start [01:54] giving me the following error [01:54] /etc/bind/named.conf:10: change directory to '/var/lib/named' failed: file not found [01:54] any pointers or ideas ? [01:55] andreb: I'm afraid I'm not the one to be asking about bind.... hopefully someone else is around [01:55] k [01:55] thanks [01:56] no dice [01:56] there is a removable dev option in my boot up priority [01:56] i don't know what for [01:56] hi [01:56] andreb: this might help (though it's for Suse) http://forums.opensuse.org/archives/novell-archives/308711-cant-start-chrooted-named.html [01:57] Newbiathon: likely for SD cards/flash drives etc. [01:57] k yeah [01:57] well durn [01:57] i still want to go to win 7 [01:57] i see the partition is there and all [01:57] hmmm... [01:58] Newbiathon: give me a min and I'll figure it out [01:58] QInotifyFileSystemWatcherEngine::addPaths: inotify_add_watch failed: No such file or directory [01:58] that pops up when i try to update the grub [01:58] using kdesudo upgrade-grub [01:58] Taco : thanks read that already.. dont think it applies to me thou [02:01] Newbiathon: this might fix it: http://askubuntu.com/questions/22698/update-grub2-not-finding-windows7-partition [02:01] i need a "unmount" to counter some mounts that went wrong [02:02] seems the old mounts keeps piling up even if they not really there [02:02] Fester77: umount wont work? [02:03] not sure .... im a newbie ... just installed kubuntu in virtualbox and im trying to get the hostfolders [02:03] Fester77: where are the mounts piling up? [02:03] cant get the clipboard from the guest else i´d point u to the page i have with those intructions [02:04] in media where i set them [02:04] Fester77: in the media directory? or in the device notifier in the taskbar? [02:04] hold a sec plz.... [02:06] i see nothing in the taskbar .... just @ /mount .... [02:06] how do you mount drives in kubuntu? [02:06] i only know how to do it in gnome [02:07] can u tell me how to get the vbox guest clipboard and then i can paste the url [02:07] anyone GOOD WITH BIND ? [02:07] you have mounted drives in /mnt or /media that aren't there? you can always type "sudo umount /media/" to get rid of it.... but if it's a CD/DVD/Removable drive... it's really not causing any problems and will disappear when you reboot [02:08] andreb: try "/j #bind" they'll know more than me for sure :) [02:08] i am there Taco but all seem to be sleeping :( [02:08] http://www.giannistsakiris.com/index.php/2008/04/09/virtualbox-access-windows-host-shared-folders-from-ubuntu-guest/ [02:08] found it [02:08] andreb: argh, well that sucks [02:09] thanks so much Sir_taco :) [02:09] np [02:09] they went wrong as i´ve wanted to mount several letters and they first went into windows share ... [02:10] helping too many people at once... confused... lol [02:10] Fester77: aaah, ok [02:10] so i rebooted kubuntu and repated and they old ones are left and keeps piling up [02:10] doesn't help it's 30+ degress in here lol [02:11] Fester77: are they network mounts? [02:12] hmm ... i not sure what u mean ... but vbox folder are recognized as "networkdrives" per say ... but there not "real" network drives [02:13] PolicyKit keeps crashing. Also it always asks me for a passord which I don't want. I want it confgured like I have for sudo ("NOPASSWD"). [02:13] Any tips for me? [02:13] thougt the mount seemed similar to dosbox mount so i assumed the could be a -u in mount but nooooooo :P [02:14] Fester77: ok... lets step back a second.... so you are running Kubuntu in virtualbox? and you have mounts in your /media directory that you don't wish to have? [02:14] yes [02:14] SIR_Taco: when i go to my windows partition and click the windows folder, I see the "Boot" folder with a capital "B"; However, i do not see a "boot" folder [02:15] i wish to have them but to readd them and delete the faulty ones [02:15] Fester77: ok.... and what are you running Virtualbox on? windows? linux? and what do the unwanted mounts point to? [02:15] win 7 pro x64 guest kubuntu x64 [02:15] Fester77: ok, and they show up every time you restart your Virtualbox image? [02:16] Newbiathon: ok... well that's not it then.... you don't have some odd setup? like windows/linux on an external drive or anything? [02:17] yup i go in gnome commander and it show those mounts since before even though they wont work [02:17] no it is all on my single internal drive [02:18] no biggie really ..... just not famiar with standard linux commands in the terminal [02:19] ok my linux partition has a boot folder, windows 7 has Boot? [02:19] is this the prob [02:19] which do i change [02:19] i don't want to mess anything up [02:19] i can right click those mountnames and select delete but then it access denied [02:20] so i figure it must be dine thru a terminal command [02:20] that has to be the problem [02:20] Fester77: it is possible they are in your /etc/fstab file.... and are being loading automatically [02:20] i was just a bit confused [02:20] do i change the windows folder to boot? [02:20] since it is Boot atm [02:20] w8 a sec ... will try to get there and check [02:20] Newbiathon: no.... don't mess with the windows partition lol [02:21] ok [02:21] i could always just change it back though right? [02:21] Newbiathon: do you only have one drive then? [02:21] but yeah my root folder is "boot" and window dir is "Boot" [02:21] yea [02:21] just one drive [02:22] i made a partition for kubuntu [02:22] im thinking if i change that to "boot" it might work [02:23] and if it doesn't can't i just change back to "Boot" [02:23] so you should be able to do "sudo grub-install /dev/sda" and see if it will reinstall [02:24] didn't work [02:24] gnome commander will let me view but not edit fstab ... when i view i can see lots of shit i can cant comprehend and some of it says mount .... cant make out my mountnames .... entry seems more like taken from regedit .... five 23421-24214-fdw3d etc etc [02:24] QInotifyFileSystemWatcherEngine::addPaths: inotify_add_watch failed: No such file or directory [02:25] Fester77: go into the console.... type "sudo nano /etc/fstab" [02:25] or konsole... whatever you're comfortable going into [02:26] Newbiathon: try doing a "sudo dpkg --configure -a" something's not right with your installation [02:27] also... the Boot folder in Windows is completely separate from what we're talking about.... just don't mess with it :) [02:28] I'm thinking I need some sponsors lol [02:28] not sure what that did ... but it seems like "type blah.txt" in dos .... i got the contents of fstab in the console .... [02:29] kdesudo: Unknown option 'configure'. [02:29] i am on 64-bit version [02:29] if that matters [02:29] Fester77: so you have the fstab file open? do you see the mounts that are unwanted? [02:30] Newbiathon: I want you to forget about kdesudo for a moment, and just open Konsole and type what I said (this technical support brought to you by Pepsi... mmmm goood... lol) [02:31] oh lol [02:31] i thought it had to be kdesudo on kubuntu lol [02:31] Newbiathon: only if you want to open a GUI program in KDE with as root.... which is generally a bad idea [02:32] dang ok [02:32] most GUI programs that need root access to finish a task will prompt for a root password [02:33] ok so now it asked for passwd, i typed it and now it must be thinking or something [02:33] good sign [02:34] how long do i wait [02:34] until it's done :) [02:34] ok what is a guesstimate [02:34] sorry if im being annoying [02:35] oh wait ... no, it isn't thinking [02:35] lol [02:35] it will check every I/O device to see if there could possibly be an OS on it... and install Grub to the MBR [02:35] just went right back to the reg konsole setup [02:35] i get the first page and i dont know how to scroll .... say letter^ ... like "page down w^" .... dont know if thats ctrl+w or alt etc.... the " ^ " thing .... but as of the first page cant make out anything that seems relevant ..... to mounts with those "regedit" type names [02:36] ok... now what do you get if you type "sudo update-grub" [02:37] what was that pastebin site again [02:37] i don't want to flood [02:37] or can i pm you? [02:37] Newbiathon: sure [02:38] Fester77: fstab should look something like this : http://paste.kde.org/76597/ [02:39] where after the UUID (for hard drives anyway) marks where they are mounted. ie: in my example /dev/sdb1 is mounted as / or root drive [02:39] 3 entries ....1st about linux image .... /boot/vmlinuz something 2nd initrd image ... /boot/vmlinuz blahblah 3rd memtest86+ image /boot/memtest86+.bin .... then right after says done [02:39] going to reboot right fast [02:40] @taco : is there no unmount command ? [02:40] oh what is this taco? [02:40] http://paste.kde.org/76603/ [02:40] Fester77: yes there is... umount is the command [02:41] i did a sudo apt-get uprade as well [02:41] i was using kdesudo apt-get upgrade/update before [02:41] i was told wrong previously [02:41] mkay ... i´l play with that a little .... bbl [02:41] thx anyway [02:42] Fester77: you can umount a directory/folder or device.... so I can do "sudo umount /dev/sda1" or I can do "sudo umount /media/windows" if my mount were called "windows" [02:43] Newbiathon: that will work great.... so long as there are no errors.... then you're lost in the woodwork [02:43] and why isn't it asking for root passwd anymore [02:43] ? [02:43] did the configure [02:43] mess up my password? [02:44] how can i tell if a root password is still set [02:44] Newbiathon: when you type your password for the first sudo... it assumes you're still you for a while in that terminal session and doesn't ask again [02:44] ok so if i close and reopen [02:44] it should ask again? [02:44] yes [02:45] lol sorry for newbing [02:45] you will prob. start logging off when you see me coming lol [02:45] not a problem, been there [02:45] brb im going to reboot and see what happens [02:45] naw, I started on a not so user friendly system lol [02:47] durn [02:47] didn't say anything about win7 [02:48] hmmm [02:48] it's a good thing I'm stubborn :P [02:49] http://paste.kde.org/76609/ [02:49] that is the sudo upgrade-grub [02:49] output [02:49] Newbiathon: good... was just about to ask you for it :) [02:49] i am stubborn too [02:49] lol [02:49] you're learning :) [02:49] yeah im a fast learner [02:50] with the proper instructor [02:50] /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.38-8-generic??? [02:50] is the vm virtual machine? [02:51] that's what runs in your RAM to boot into Linux [02:51] oh ok [02:53] Newbiathon: try this maybe? http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=9397658&postcount=13 [02:53] taco this is going to be tricky since umount states that it is´nt mounted .... however gnome commaner sees it and that native file mangager sees it too ... none of them can however those mount to trash/delete them... used to sudo thing u told me ..... "sudo umount /media/e_drive" [02:54] Fester77: but if you open the mounted directory.... can you view the files? or do you get an error? (I mean open the files, not jsut get a directory listing, as it may be cached) [02:55] Newbiathon: however, instead of (hd0,1), if your windows partition is on the first partition of your drive it should be (hd0,0) [02:55]
