=== szal_ is now known as szal [00:24] is there a ppa for kde 4.7 betas? [00:29] KPackageKit lists == 10.3.181.22ubuntu0.10.10.1 == as a flash plugin update, and refers to the National Vulnerablility Database CVE 2011-2107. The NVD however, gives this warning: ERROR, "CVE-2011-2107" is valid CVE format, but CVE was not found.ERROR, "CVE-2011-2107" is valid CVE format, but CVE was not found. [00:29] should i update it? [00:31] how do i find out if it is a valid update? [00:37] hello everyone, anyone facing or faced problem with Gigabyte on board display for widescreen? [00:37] i am using GA-G41M Gigabyte motherboad, and on board display, but i not able to configure resulation of 1399x768 [00:37] any work around? [00:45] how to configure policykit in Kubuntu 11.04?? [00:59] I had two administrator users, one was the original created by the installer, and the other is one I created manualy [01:02] does ppa have the beta release of kde sc 4.7 [01:02] since I deleted the account of the original administrator (because I didn't need him yet), the other administrator user cannot authenticate in policykit dialogs, for instance in Kpackagekit [01:02] is there something to do to fix this situation? === squinteye is now known as krookeye === arunce_ is now known as arunce [01:59] problem: i had to fix my panel yesterday, and now there isn't a volume indicator, where can i find that so i can put it on the panel? ;d [02:01] uberfrau: you might just do alt+f2 and type 'kmix' [02:01] will try that, sec [02:02] jmichaelx: ah, thank you, and when i close it, it remains a running process. great =) [02:02] yep, i think that's the case :-D [02:04] i'm also curious as to how to add a panel above my main panel that is like a Mac panel (buttons for main programs in a very clean bar), i'm sure that more people than i are interested in this, so is there a place i should look for that? [02:05] google? [02:05] uberfrau: i use one called quicklaunch... it is just a widget, and can be found by unlocking your widgets and and looking through the ones you have available (you might have to install it, if it isn't there by default) [02:05] i am ^^ [02:06] okay, will check that out [02:06] uberfrau: there is a host of other docs, some of which can be very mac-esque [02:07] i'm not a mac user, i just want the bar because it would be convenient for programming items ;D [02:07] or *tools, rather [02:07] yea, that is exactly what i use it for..... things like codeblocks, gimp, and also xbmc, miro, etc [02:08] =) [02:11] i'm not seeing a quicklaunch in the 'plasma workspace add-on installer' search, the only thing that comes up is TextLaunch [02:13] hmm [02:15] uberfrau: it might just be called 'application launcher'? i do not like how the names in the ribbon where you choose widgets sometimes do not match the actual name of the widgets, that's pretty ridiculous imo [02:15] will look for that then, sec [02:16] o.o ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh [02:16] running 10.10, swapped out the broadcom wifi card on the notebook for an intel one. Now I have great wireless, but suddenly no wired connection. Suggestions? [02:17] ScottyK: i would not be sure, but can you mention what type of wired network adapter you are using? [02:18] It was the internal Broadcomm driver. Now the "Wired" tab is greyed out, so I can't get the info on it [02:20] I held off on upgrading to 11.04 because I had issues with the previous wifi card in the computer. Now I'm pondering just going for it [02:23] ScottyK, What does ifconfig return? [02:24] what is the URL to paste code so others can see it? [02:25] pastebin.com [02:25] ok. brb [02:25] jmichaelx: application launcher is default, already have that...i'm talking about something like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bvnQE1EAEZY [02:26] Hey guys, can anybody know what the system requirement is to use a dock like Avant Window Navigator? [02:26] Er... does anybody?**** [02:27] uberfrau: yea, i already know what you meant, i just do not know the name of the one i use. if i right-click on it, it says 'quicklaunch'.... but obviously it goes by something else [02:27] oh [02:27] :S [02:28] http://pastebin.com/shMMXdsj [02:30] uberfrau: what i am using IS just called quicklaunch [02:31] uberfrau: it is not a fancy one, like the one in your youtube link [02:31] >.< [02:32] Quicklaunch is a Windows system term. What you may have is either AppLaunch or AppKicker, which are application launcher menus. [02:32] i found quicklaunch lol [02:33] and that's what it's called >.> [02:33] i would prefer a pretty one though ;) [02:33] lol [02:33] and it seems that there are bug reports regarding it for 10.04 forward :S [02:33] Blame Microsoft. [02:33] xD [02:34] err wat [02:34] Nevermind. [02:34] the logic didn't follow :) [02:36] uberfrau: you can place program icons in the panel & move them around to your liking (open Panel Options to do the latter) [02:36] okay [02:36] i may just do that then [02:36] I keep having my panel jump around my screen while I'm using an application. Anybody else see something like that? [02:36] another question: can i change the order of tasks in task manager :/ [02:37] ScottyK, sudo ifconfig eth0 up [02:37] uberfrau: you can have them either unsorted or sorted alphabetically, and additionally grouped by windows belonging to the same application [02:38] my monitor is defective (vertical band), so i want to move my skype over so i can see when i have a new message :/ [02:39] eth0: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device [02:39] ok that's weird [02:39] buy another monitor :P .. used CRTs will be thrown at you for almost no money ;) [02:39] ScottyK, lspci | grep Ethernet [02:40] * szal would suggest "grep -i ethernet" <- case-insensitive [02:41] 03:00.0 Ethernet Controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4401-B0 100Base-TX (rev 02) [02:41] ScottyK, sudo ifconfig eth1 up? [02:41] eth1: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device [02:43] s/eth1/wlan1/ [02:44] szal, I believe ScottyK wireless is working [02:44] correct, the wireless is up and running [02:45] Had a test hard drive in here previously, and both wired and wireless were working. switched back to the primary hard drive, and now no wired, but good wireless signal [02:45] well, Broadcom sounds suspiciously like WLAN, and your above ifconfig paste doesn't include a LAN device [02:46] yeah, it's a Dell Vostro 1500 [02:46] used broadcom for both the wired and wireless [02:46] (though no surprises here, as ifconfig doesn't show non-working interfaces) [02:46] haha [02:46] so bought a Intel chip to get rid of the wireless broadcom [02:46] I've got a light on the RJ-45 plug [02:47] should I just upgrade it to 11.04? I was holding out because 11.04 the wireless wouldn't work [02:47] but that should be settled with this new chip in there [02:53] hi, does anybody know about this KDE Menu Editor? [02:54] uberfrau: you could give cairo-dock a shot... there are a number of other dock apps around, probably more than you could experiment with in one evening [02:54] What do you mean, giantpune? [02:55] im having a couple issues where the KDE menu does not respect the behavior i set with that menu editor. but it does respect other choices i made. [02:55] jmichaelx: okay; i'm not a fan of playing around with things much, would rather reserve my time for more important stuff :P [02:55] ScottyK, Either that or wait for someone more knowledgeable to come along. [02:56] Please explain what you are doing with it. I'm not sure if I can really help you if I don't know what you're trying to do. [02:56] i created a menu called "disk stuff" and under that, i put a few programs dealing with disks. the menu does not have the icon i chose, and it only shows some of the programs i put under that menu [02:56] the items that dont show up do not have the "hidden" box checked. [02:57] wildgoose - sounds good! Since I at least have wireless, I can upgrade and see what happens. Thanks for the ideas! [02:57] Hmm.... I don't think that is something I know enough about to help. Sorry. :( [02:58] ScottyK, Yup, happy hunting. [02:59] LINKSWORD2, maybe this picture shows better what im talking about. http://img31.imageshack.us/img31/4883/kdemenuerror.png [03:00] OK, just a moment. [03:00] ScottyK: as for seeing network interfaces, you might also want to look at iptools (please check the name; contains the executable /bin/ip) [03:00] the icon for the menu is different in the editor that what shows up in the menu. and the program "baobab" is missing in the real menu [03:03] All right, I do see what you're talking about. Unfortunately, it's not something I know how to fix. [03:09] I try to reply to everyone that I think I can help, even if the end result is that it's not something I know. [03:09] I hope you understand this, and accept my apologies. [03:10] I wish you good luck, and I hope the problem you are experiencing can be fixed. === beerlogger is now known as winelogger === db is now known as Guest44627 [03:55] isthere anything special to map keyboard keys in kde as oppossed to gnome? sometimes kde has special tools so you dont have to tinker so hard [04:02] hi [04:55] Anybody have any idea why my system is kernel panicing when starting KDE from KDM? [04:56] If I do a recovery mode boot > resume normal boot > login > startx it works fine [04:57] but logging in from kdm causes the system to kernel panic when the splash screen reaches the blue "desktop" icon [04:58] different things have happened when it crashes, sometimes the screen goes black, once it crashed to the console and told me it was a kernel panic, other times it simply freezes with the splash screen still visible. === skreech_ is now known as Daskreech [05:02] Anyone? [05:16] Hi, I tried dual boot (Win7 and Kubuntu), the Grub crashed. Now when I switch on my laptop, I don't see any boot option. I tried a few forum/tuturial, but I have one doubt. The commands I tried are at http://paste.kde.org/79477/. I am not able to execute just one command 'sudo grub-install /dev/sda'. It appears, if I can execute this last command, I can fix my boot load. [05:30] ls [05:30] Hi, I tried dual boot (Win7 and Kubuntu), the Grub crashed.

Please help. === sillytones is now known as rwwtones === rwwtones is now known as semitones [05:50] Hi im to to Kubuntu as well as linux and havent used irc in years do i ask tech help questions in this channel or is there another I should use [06:01] ScourKing, you can ask pretty much anything in this channel. [06:01] #ubuntu can be helpful too, if it's not something directly related to KDE [06:19] Hey all. Is it possible to clone my account from one harddrive to another? [06:28] LINKSWORD2: account? you mean user? [06:29] Yeah. [06:31] sure - just copy everything over.. um cp -rpb ~/ /mnt/newdrive/home/myuser or whatever. [06:31] LINKSWORD2: I'm not sure exactly of the -rpb but it will be something like that. [06:32] LINKSWORD2: presumably you've reinstalled ubuntu and you want to copy your user settings? [06:33] No, actually. [06:33] I'm going to change harddrives, and want to copy my entire account to the new harddrive. [06:34] LINKSWORD2: ooh.. everything. so the whole shebang [06:34] so you need to preserve ownership and permissions et al [06:35] you can clone the entire partition if you want to try that [06:35] All right, MK`` how do I do that? [06:35] are both drives connected? [06:36] Not currently, but I can do that in a few moments. [06:37] if you want to copy the entire drive it should be pretty simple [06:37] like if you want to copy /dev/sda onto /dev/sdb, you can run: dd if=/dev/sda of=/dev/sdb [06:37] I'm not using the entire drive that I have currently. [06:37] And the drive I'm switching to is smaller. [06:38] alright [06:38] is the installation you want to copy using the entire drive? [06:38] No. [06:38] MK``: What about the Nepomuk program? [06:38] never heard of it [06:39] I'm on Kubuntu 11.04. [06:39] Is it across multiple partitions? [06:40] Nope. [06:40] ah. hm [06:40] dd needs the output drive/partition to be larger than the input [06:40] I currently have one large capacity harddrive installed, and only a fraction of it being used. [06:41] maybe you can shrink the partition on the large one :P but I imagine there are safer things to do, lemme look this up [06:41] I'm switching to a smaller harddrive. [06:41] yeah I got that [06:41] Also, concerning the Nepomuk application... [06:41] MK``: Look in the System category in the applications launcher. Nepomuk Backup [06:42] If you can provide me with info as to whether that will be helpful or not, I would much appreciate it. [06:42] ah, that's new to 11.04 I think. I've never used it so I dunno what it does [06:43] Maybe someone familiar with it can help if that is a good option [06:45] that looks like it backs up your files but not for cloning installations etc. [06:45] Have you backed up your files? [06:45] Yeah. [06:46] I've got a 500GB USB harddrive I save all kinds of stuff on. lol [06:46] You can try using a LiveCD to resize the partition to be smaller than the destination drive, and then copy it over since it will be smaller [06:46] Ok. [06:47] I suppose my alternative is to copy the downloads for anything I have installed, and then start over. [06:47] * LINKSWORD2 shudders [06:47] :P [06:47] So long as your files are all backed up... there's a small but real chance that shrinking a partition can break stuff [06:48] cjae: You want different keys in Gnome than in KDE? [06:49] Daskreech: k what sorry hang on ill check [06:50] Daskreech: sorry ive done a million things since I asked that question are you sure it was me? [06:50] Well, I'm going to log off. [06:50] LINKSWORD2: why won't cp -pR work? [06:50] cjae: think so [06:50] Huh? O_o? [06:50] Daskreech: I did ask I key binding question of some sort but cant remember [06:51] cp -pR? [06:51] cjae: ok then [06:52] LINKSWORD2: cp recursively with permissions intact [06:52] I don't know anything about that. [06:52] Does it pose any risk? And if so, is it worth taking? [06:52] LINKSWORD2: Sure are you shredding the old drive? [06:53] I will erase it with GParted later, and reformat it for a Windows install. [06:53] Provided that this works... [06:54] Daskreech: I found it, I was asking if there was a kde application like kkeys or something for easy keymapping [06:55] I love Kubuntu 11.04! Awesome, smooth interface, easily customizable... And still free. [06:55] LINKSWORD2: So either make a /home partition (which I recommend) or install Kubuntu then cp your home directory [06:55] cjae: ah Umm Yes but I can't recall it's name [06:58] Daskreech: k [07:07] \quit [07:11] lol === sm2iar__work is now known as sm2iar_work === Keshl_ is now known as Keshl [07:24] Thanks, Daskreech! I shall return in a while. [07:44] I am really beginning to regret upgrading to 11.04 [07:45] Comments on bug https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=275100 ? [07:45] KDE bug 275100 in general "Can no longer search for files with Konqueror" [Normal,Unconfirmed] [07:54] mfraz74: don't like krunner? [07:55] I use it all the time and it works great [07:55] often better than I hope for it to [07:55] for searching for a file containing a certain word? [07:56] in a folder that hasn't been indexed by nepomuk? [08:03] areichman: looks like I'll have to use the command line and grep from now on [08:03] to search for files? [08:03] what are you looking for? [08:04] Last night I wanted to find a particular word inside all the files in a directory [08:04] what type of files? [08:04] vcf [08:05] and krunner didn't find it? [08:05] No because that folder hadn't been indexed by nepomuk [08:05] did you change nepomuk to index it? [08:05] I wanted to find all the files within .local/share/contacts that contained the word Work [08:05] there's a system settings pane where you can select explicity which files are indexed [08:06] I know [08:06] What if I wanted to search for a file on a removable device, do I have to configure nepomuk to index it and then wait until it has? [08:07] as far as I know [08:07] Then we are going backwards. In KDE 4.5 I could use Konqueror to search without bothering about that [08:08] I wonder what it used to do that [08:08] not sure, will have to go on a computer still running 10.10 [08:09] see if you can figure it out [08:09] might be useful to take some of those advantages from the older system and port them to the newer one [08:09] if I had to guess I'd say it's not as deep of a search as nepomuk/strigi does [08:09] but gives you shallower results faster [08:10] but it's just a guess [08:11] mfraz74: what's wrong with using grep for that? [08:11] or kfind? [08:11] nepomuk/strigi gives results faster after the data is indexed [08:12] mfraz74: Dolphin should be able to do that as well [08:12] Daskreech: How do I get Konqueror or Dolphin to run Kfind? [08:13] do you have it installed? [08:13] yes, I just launched it with Krunner. [08:13] far as I know if you have kfind installed pressing ^F should invoke it [08:14] That doesn't work [08:17] What do you get? [08:18] nothing, I can press Ctrl F as many times as I want, but nothing happens [08:19] Hrrrm [08:19] I thought ^ meant alt, not control, no? [08:20] alt f just brings up the ment [08:20] back in a mo [08:31] areichman: M+ is alt ^ is ctrl [08:39] Daskreech: thanks, I didn't know [08:40] Daskreech: do you know anything about dealing with xml in javascript? === XVampireX_ is now known as XVampireX === sommarjobbare1 is now known as MagnusN [09:50] Is there a way to activate my WiFi connection, _before_ I login to KDE?

It only works for directories completion... what can I do? [10:58] faLUCE: Are you sure all Ram is available to the OS? Perhaps you have a shared memory graphic card that's taking around 500MB? [10:58] faLUCE: also, 4GB is the limit for 32bit operating systems, you should install 64 bit if you want to maximize your ram usage [11:23] Greetings once more, all.

[14:39] PiotrN, I think they're on it, if you check the topic of kubuntu-devel channel it says "Packaging 4.6.4 for natty" [14:39] PiotrN: are you sure? neither the KDE homepage nor #kde have an announcement [14:40] szal: it's not out yet, but on #kde got reliable info that it will be realsed later today, tarbals are ready [14:40] WhizKins: thanks, i'll check the devel channel [14:41] PiotrN: iow, they still need to be packaged & propagated to mirrors -> realistically, tomorrow [14:42] maybe so, that wont make big diff for me, i'm really waiting for kdepim 4.6 [14:43] * szal will want to know whether it breaks stuff first [14:44] is there something new in kdepim 4.6? [14:44] afaik, it's a major re-design, heavily relying on Akonadi.. it was postponed for quite some time for a reason [14:45] WhizKins: akonadi [14:45] ahh yeah, now that's something neat :) [14:46] Yea... kdepim really needs it [14:48] KDE 4.7 beta will be released tomorrow [14:49] oo, another one already ?

[15:00] ronino, click on the cashew , add widgets , type network manager [15:04] or press Alt-F2 and type in "knetworkmanager", and make sure you have the "Show try icon" checked under "Manage Connections..." -> "Other" [15:08] ronino, or right click on the panel , choose panel settings , check network management [15:10] hmm odd ..that didn't work the 2nd time [15:12] not panel settings , system tray settings [15:13] * BluesKaj needs to explore the panel a bit more :) [15:25] is there kubutnu version of ubuntu one? [15:32] ehsan, no but you can run ubuntu one on kde with no problems === cyberghost is now known as CM-GEOMETRIX [15:41] i install ubuntu one. but there is not any shortcut in menu and etc. [15:43] i install ubuntu one. but there isn't any shortcut in menu and etc. [15:44] !repeat [15:44] Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com/ http://www.ubuntuforums.org/ or http://www.kubuntuforums.net/ while you wait. [15:45] ehsan, I dont think there is any kde client for ubuntu one [15:45] it's a command line tool [15:45] ehsan, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=170782 [15:46] PiotrN, no but ubuntu one will run on kde [15:47] one can add it to the kmenu , choose an icon and use the /usr/bin path I suppose [15:47] BluesKaj: last time I checked that (and I admit it was some time ago), thre was no GUI for it on kubuntu [15:47] now there is one ? [15:48] not in kde [15:48] hello [15:48] so maybe that's why there is no entry in the menu [15:49] I'm having a problem with adobe's flash player in firefox. It simply doesnt work. according to KDE software adobe flash plugin v10.3.181.22 is installed, which according to adobe's website is the latest version. However, firefox keeps complaining that the flash plugin is missing. Any idea's? [15:50] hola [15:51] deus__: did you restart Firefox after installing Flash? [15:51] szal: yeah, about 100 times just to be sure :) [15:51] szal: full system reboot too [15:51] deus__: do "ls /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/plugins" [15:52] and see if you have a symbolic link there, called ... something flash something .so ;) [15:52] I get: "libvlcplugin.so [15:53] try "ls /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins" [15:53] i get those 2 confused, think ff actually uses the "mozilla" and not "mozilla-firefox"... [15:53] ls -lA /usr/lib/browser-plugins/ [15:53] or, if 64bit, replace "lib" w/ "lib64" [15:54] PiotrN: yeah, the mozilla/plugins contains libflashplayer.so (not a simlink) [15:54] i also lost my flash plugin after some update .. [15:54] deus__: have you ever installed flash by hand ? [15:54] how to install gtk ubuntu one in kubuntu? [15:55] PiotrN: Possibly in the past yes [15:55] szal: a dir called browser-plugins does not exist [15:55] deus__: try uninstalling flash in kpackagekit, check if the file remains, and if so, remove it, then reinstall from kpackagekit [15:56] and note if you dont get any errors of warnings during install, especiall from nspluginwraper [15:56] if you have 64bit version of kubuntu install flash player x86-64 [15:57] reinstalling seems to work for me [15:59] BluesKaj: thank you very much, got it! [16:00] PiotrN: done, but that doesn't result in a new libflashplayer.so file in directory (and flash doesn't work yet) [16:02] deus__: hmm.. the way it should work, is to install the player in /var, symlink it to /etc/alternatives, and then symlink that to the /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins [16:02] I have downloaded the libflashplayer.so from the adobe website manually. I could put it the /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins folder and create a simlink to it in the /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/plugins forder [16:02] do that [16:02] but dont symlink it [16:03] aso, you are on 32bit ? [16:03] PiotrN: 64 bit [16:03] also* [16:03] then you will need the flash square from adobe, not the regular one [16:03] flash 64bit, it's still experimantal and quite behind [16:03] PiotrN: ok, will put the downloaded version in the /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins dir and leave the ./mozilla-firefox/plugins dir unchanged [16:04] PiotrN: ok, will try to download the new version [16:04] *the 64 bit one [16:04] if firefox is 64bit, also put the file in /usr/lib64/mozilla/plugins [16:05] PiotrN: not sure which firefox it is. I doesn't say in the about screen [16:05] if distro is x64, then FF is so also [16:06] unless you dont use distribution installed FF, but downloaded one from mozilla, then it's most likely 32bit [16:09] PiotrN: wooot thnx, that fixed it :D [16:10] you welcome [16:10] PiotrN: apparently I needed the experimental 64 bit version [16:10] it helps to run ff from command line, if you have wrong architecture, then it spits out EFL errors [16:11] though, distribution install should work (it uses nspluginwrapper) [16:11] + that would update itself (flash square wont, and it's old) [16:12] PiotrN: whatever, it works, and that's the main thing ^^ [16:12] PiotrN: so what are u suggesting? Should I uninstall firefox and install something else? [16:12] *a different firefox version that is? [16:12] hi [16:12] Just installed Kubuntu 11.04 - huge fonts! [16:13] deus__: well no, but i would fight a bit more with kpackagekit, to make it install flash [16:13] http://img707.imageshack.us/i/problemlr.png/ [16:13] PiotrN: my guess is that it stupidly enough installs a 32 bit version [16:14] that's what i mean [16:14] deus__: nop, it uses nspluginwrapper, and although flash is 32bit, it should work [16:15] hm not sure what I should do/try :) [16:15] hy, i can't share a printer with samba. [16:15] Masaniello: and why not? [16:16] i want share with a macbook [16:16] it is on pc desktop with kubuntu [16:16] that doesn't answer the question [16:16] but it is impossible to see the printer [16:17] i can't access to server kubuntu [16:17] Masaniello: is cups running? [16:17] yes [16:17] is the Samba server running? [16:17] yes [16:17] i can share the all the folders [16:18] with smb//: IP [16:19] when i try to add the printer from the macbook, i receive this messagge: the server kubuntu is not reached === Stephen is now known as Guest21421 [16:21] Masaniello: did you make the printer share printable, public and guest ok? [16:21] yes [16:21] yes [16:21] sorry, what guest ok? [16:22] guest ok=yes [16:22] one moment [16:23] Someone who knows what to do? @ the fonts settings place all the fonts are on 8 or 9, not on this idiotic huge setting. [16:24] Masaniello: "smbclient -L localhost" does it show your printer? [16:24] TopGear: unfortunately no :( [16:24] pity... [16:25] /var/lib/samba/printers [16:25] TopGear: tried to force a DPI setting yet? (e.g. 96, as on Windblows) [16:25] # load printers = yes [16:25] printing = bsd [16:25] ; printcap name = /etc/printcap [16:26] printing = cups [16:26] ; printcap name = cups [16:26] !paste | Masaniello [16:26] Masaniello: For posting multi-line texts into the channel, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use http://imagebin.org/?page=add | !pastebinit to paste directly from command line | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic. [16:28] Masaniello: I'm not an expert on this stuff since you install the thing only once and if it works you don't touch it anymore :P [16:28] If I recall correctly, the samba manual contains a part about printing servers via cups [16:28] ah yes: http://www.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-Collection/CUPS-printing.html [16:29] actually, quite a big part :). Maybe that can help u [16:29] ok [16:29] no problem [16:29] thank you [16:29] soz I cannot help u anymore :( [16:32] solved [16:32] nVidia drivers messed up -_- [16:32] TopGear: how so ? [16:32] nVidia extra drivers messed up the fonts and made there be no sound -_- [16:34] PiotrN: so I'll use none... [16:34] you use nForce chipset ? [16:34] since when does the nVidia driver have anything to do w/ sound? [16:35] PiotrN: dunno [16:35] ga-p55a-ud4 [16:35] iirc, nForce Linux drivers are obsolete, and nForce sound systems are driven by intel8x0 instead [16:36] yea, and that mobo uses intel P55 anyways.. [16:37] maybe it's something in the /etc/X11/xorg.conf ? [16:37] don't know tbh [16:38] on the other habd, that dosent touch fonts not sound.. and your resolution was ok [16:38] hand* [16:38] nvidia is usually the better option for linux... [16:38] the drivers should work [16:38] yeah, normally AMD/ATi fucks up... [16:39] TopGear: have you looked into your Xorg.0.log while using the nvidia driver ? any EEs there ? [16:40] grep "EE" /var/log/Xorg.0.log [16:41] pasebin comin [16:41] PiotrN: http://paste.kde.org/79573/ [16:42] TopGear: are you sure you have the drivers installed ? [16:42] X cant lod them [16:42] load* [16:42] Just uninstalled them [16:42] is X.0.log refreshed per reboot? [16:42] yup [16:43] I'll install them and reboot [16:43] First a IRC prog for KDE [16:43] hi all [16:43] is there anyone who can help mi install GRUB? [16:44] i can't setup dual OS boot [16:44] any halp? [16:44] join #grub [16:46] well, ubuntu-one doesn't seem to be kde friendly ..kept refusing my user and pw , altho I already have an acct [16:47] it's supposed to run on kubuntu without any probs , but , not true [16:47] BluesKaj: do you use kubuntu? [16:47] yes [16:47] this is a kubuntu support chat [16:50] Nice, it works [16:50] wonder what works :) [16:54] Hi [16:54] Hi [16:55] PiotrN: Huge font's back. [16:56] PiotrN: http://paste.kde.org/79579/ [16:57] And sound's gone as well... [17:00] well [17:00] Set the fonts to 96dpi, works [17:00] but sound's still gone [17:01] TopGear, how did you install the nvidia driver ? [17:01] BluesKaj: Additional drivers (or how it's called in englis...) [17:02] recommended one ? [17:02] yes [17:03] what nvidia card ?, sudo lshw -C video [17:03] xfx gts 250 [17:04] TopGear, chek you message.log, it should hava a hint regarding the sound [17:04] logs are usefull :) [17:06] TopGear: you can grep for error or sound [17:07] TopGear, try this http://www.pastebin.ca/2076245 [17:09] BluesKaj: Why that way? [17:15] Will any Font i install will gimp use them ? [17:15] I'll just try it [17:23] Well [17:24] that doesn't work either [17:24] command nvidia-xconfig gives: sudo: nvidia-xconfig: command not found [17:25] How do I install the latest beta version of Nvidia drivers in Kubuntu ? [17:27] PiotrN: you know? [17:27] anybody can me on the nvidia probelm I have been having? Question above [17:28] help me* [17:28] TopGear: know what ? :_ [17:28] :) [17:28] PiotrN: sudo: nvidia-xconfig: command not found [17:28] TopGear: I'm kina ati user, so not so much experience with nvidia drivers [17:28] kinda* [17:29] but if the command is not found, that means it isnt there :), and those tools usually just help to config xorg.conf [17:29] which you can do by hand just as well [17:30] TopGear, not sudo: nvidia-xconfig , sudo nvidia-xconfig [17:30] yes, i know [17:30] that was the outpput [17:33] Where do i add extra fonts to....? [17:35] i am running kmail always in system tray. if i shut down without previous quit of this application while the system shutdown i recieve a crash report form akonadi server which says that closed unexpectecly. does any one have any idea how can i fix this without quit every time from kmail application? [17:38] stupid sound... [17:44] TopGear: have you looked into your message.log ? [17:49] Where do i add extra fonts to that i get from the web [17:51] TheBuntu: try to put those fonts in ".fonts" folder [17:52] vadrao: where is font folder [17:52] and then run fc-cache -v $HOME/.fonts [17:52] It should be a folder in your home directory [17:52] and the name of the folder is .fonts [17:52] and not fonts [17:56] TheBuntu: you can also add and manage fonts via system settings - int the Font Installer === napster is now known as Guest66816 [17:59] claydoh: ok thanks... that probly easyer then copying and pasteing to /usr/share/fonts [17:59] Hello at All [17:59] sure is :) [18:00] I need help for Sharing File [18:00] and then the text editing feature in gimp will use any font on the system right [18:00] Who can help me? [18:02] TheBuntu: that is right [18:11] PiotrN: where is it? [18:12] TopGear: /var/log/messages [18:12] thn [18:12] x [18:14] PiotrN: messages doesn't exist [18:15] TopGear: that's... odd.. [18:15] try dmesg [18:16] i've got an odd issue with kate/dolphin/kio. If I am using dolphin and try and open a remote file (via ssh) in kate, it opens something like number.number.file.txt. I guess it's a temp file, and it quickly disappears. If I use the file browser within kate to open it, the file opens correctly and I can remotely edit. I'm on Kubuntu 11.04 and this issue has only started happening recently. Any... [18:16] ...ideas how to fix it? [18:16] PiotrN: http://www.pastebin.ca/2076294 [18:18] AndyMan1, why use dolphin to open a textfile with ssh [18:19] TopGear: gosh, how many HDD's do you have there ?? [18:19] PiotrN: 5 [18:20] Both dolphin and kate click well with me. [18:20] PiotrN: lunch now. I'll read your tips and PM's later :-) [18:20] TopGear: [ 19.810285] input: HDA Intel Headphone as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1b.0/sound/card0/input7 [18:21] and it's nice to work with both local files and remote files in the same program [18:21] TopGear: HDA Intel 0000:00:1b.0: irq 53 for MSI/MSI-X [18:21] TopGear: the driver for audio is loaded and it recognized the hardware [18:22] TopGear: nvidia is also loaded [18:22] it used to work just fine, but for some reason it started doing that temp file thing === millun_ is now known as millun [18:44] PiotrN: can you explain it? [18:45] TopGear: drivers are loaded, no errors there, it seems, your sound issue is at different level [18:45] PiotrN: maybe replace Alsa with Pulse? [18:45] sure, try it [18:46] phonon is still kinda new to me [18:47] TopGear: does your graphisc card has HDMI output ??? [18:47] PiotrN: No. 2x DVI and S-VIDEO [18:48] TopGear: anyways, make sure, that your sound card is select as primary (top) card in your multimedia settings in kde [18:48] PiotrN: done already [18:50] so, you can see your sound hardware three (in the settings) === hostal is now known as hostal_ [18:53] Just installed Kubuntu, testing... [18:54] TopGear: sorry for asking, but i maybe should have started with that: are your speakers connected correctly, powered on and the volume is set ? and you are sure that you have not muted the sound i kmix ? :) [18:54] PiotrN: everyting is fine ;) [18:54] gonna reboot now [18:56] Tried installing a thing called "Zorin OS" which is based on Ubuntu, but the installer didn't work, so I have gone back to Kubuntu, and here I am! [18:57] back [18:58] nojoy ? [18:58] no joy* [18:58] PiotrN: still no sound :( [19:00] Hey [19:04] I safe-upgraded this midday and now kubuntu is freezing when I start eclipse or emacs [19:05] the moue is moving like once in 5 seconds (looks like a verry low fps) [19:05] and changing to an other vty (ctrl+alt+1) does not work.. [19:05] *F1 [19:10] I have done a complete wipe out of the partition and a reinstall of Kubuntu, and it seems to be okay now. [19:11] I copied my "home" folder to another computer on the network, and now I am copying it back. [19:11] The copy back is taking much longer than the the save. [19:11] Hmm, stupid Phonon [19:12] I have 1.9gig of data in my home folder and 37405 files. I don't know why there should be so many! [19:15] wilkie_: lots of config files and stuff I guess? :) [19:16] how can I see what packages where upgraded last time ? [19:22] view the file /var/log/dpkg.log [19:23] TopGear, what about phonon ? [19:23] no sound [19:24] BluesKaj: hi [19:24] I suppose you.ve checked alsamixer and setup all the ctrls etc. TopGear [19:25] hmhm [19:25] hi Peace- [19:25] alsamixer -V all [19:25] and veromix [19:25] = fix 99% of audio problems [19:26] btw TopGear there is a bug filed on launchpad about the nvidia geforce 250 on 11.04 [19:26] oh, ha [19:26] where? [19:27] launchpad [19:27] !launchpad [19:27] Launchpad is a collection of development services for Open Source projects. It's Ubuntu's bug tracker, and much more; see https://launchpad.net/ [19:28] Peace-, does that command unmute ctrls as well ,or just turn the volume up on alsamixer [19:32] Is it my imagination or is K11.01 unstable? I have reinstalled Maverick because that was the install disk I had from last time. Should I keep it on Maverick? Last time I went for the upgrade to Narwell, and things became strange.. [19:33] BluesKaj: mm dunno right now [19:40] Hello, the is some italian? [19:41] !it [19:41] Vai su #ubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie! (per entrare, scrivi « /join #ubuntu-it » senza virgolette) [19:41] i have some problem in Kubutu for the file sharing [19:42] Can you help me? [19:42] file sharing seems to work all right for me [19:42] with HDD in NTFS format? [19:43] yes it is okay with Windows Vista [19:43] Win7 and Vista is Similar [19:43] If you are on XP then it might be more difficult [19:43] no, Seven [19:44] what do you do for Share the HDD? [19:44] RU you connected directly to the other machine? [19:44] yeap [19:45] wilkie: can you help me in PM? [19:45] You have to create a dummy account on the Windows machine with a dummy password, which can be "password". If the Windows machine does not have user account, then you can't connect to it. [19:46] wilkie_, W7 requires a user acct and pw [19:46] Correct [19:46] So does vista [19:47] BluesKaj: correct, he always asks me username and password, I insert them to him but does not make me come in, as if the account name and password are wrong [19:48] napster_, samba or smb ? [19:48] BluesKaj: smb, becouse Samba don't work [19:51] napster_, ok describe how you setup smb to connect to w7 pc , did you use the "add network folder' then msnetwork drive ? [19:51] in dolphin network [19:53] BluesKaj: i not setup smb ^^ I went on HHD properties -> Sharing -> Share with Samba [19:53] *HDD [19:54] napster_, this is a partition on the HDD ? [19:54] NTFS? [19:54] yeap [19:54] install ntfs-3g [19:55] it is just install [19:55] now? [19:56] then you should be able to see the shares without using samba or smb , they are for a windows machine on your home or office network [19:57] NTFS under places in dolphin [19:57] and how should I share the HDD without Samba or SMB? [19:57] i use Konqueror [19:57] napster_, yes but you have to share from the windows partition [19:58] ??? NTFS partition is in Kubutu non in Windows [19:59] *not [20:00] i have 2 HDD in this machine, the second HDD is a NTFS partition and i will share it for the other pc in my network [20:00] ok konqueror , but you have boot into the windows partition and choose the folders and share them [20:01] i havent windows in this machine ^^ [20:02] is a HDD that contains only documents, not the operating system! [20:02] so it's just a data partition , then you should have access if you made them executable [20:02] correct, data partition [20:03] napster_, see if you would have told us this right at the start we could have saved time [20:03] in kubuntu within the partition in kubuntu with no problems, but I can not share network [20:04] I have said, but translating from Italian to English is not so simple ^ ^ [20:05] sorry [20:06] ok what are the OSs on the other networked machines? [20:06] Win7 [20:08] File sharing between NTFS and Kubuntu works for me. I have only got a laptop connected to the Desktop by an RJ45 connecting lead, thats all. [20:09] I did not need to do anything special to make it work. File sharing works straight out of the box, even off he live install CD! [20:11] wilkie_: I have This machine with 2 HDD: 1st is the OS Kubuntu 11.04, 2nd is a NTFS data partition where there is only document! [20:11] napster_, you need to setup the w7 machines to incude the data drive as part of the homegroup afaik [20:12] Proceedure: from the K get to Dolphin, click on "Network", "Samba shares", and you should see the Windows machine, click it open and you'll be asked for an account and password. This account must be a dummy account, and not the Adminstrator's account. [20:13] wilkie_: in this machine all ok, but i want to share NTFS partition in my network, other pc have Windows 7! [20:13] BluesKaj: part of the homegroup afaik? [20:13] File sharing works for me. No extra software needs to be installed to make it work!! [20:14] afaik = as far as I know [20:14] You have to set up an account on the windows machine, and select a folder to share. [20:14] wilkie_, we heard you rthe first time ..his situation is different [20:14] Drag anything you need to be shared to the shared folder. [20:15] I share a the folder called "Downloads" on both machines. [20:16] wilkie_: explain what procedures you did to share the folder [20:16] wilkie he's using the ntfs partition as data only , there's no OS , so he needs to find it from the other windows pcs on the network and make it part of the w7 homegroup [20:17] napster_, do the other windows pcs see the data partition on the network ? [20:18] On the Windows machine, go to "Computer" and click it open. Click open "Users", click open "Yourname", click open "Downloads", right click and choose "Share", that's all there is to it!! [20:19] yes, but always asking me username and password, I will enter, it says it is not correct, it seems impossible [20:19] Napster, what you have got to do, is create a new user name and password on the Windows machine. [20:20] Call the User account say "Napster", and the password "password" [20:21] but it is absurd, why? [20:21] The password can be anything such as "XXX" but if you make it "password" you'll never forget it! [20:23] You must create separate user accounts for access from another machine, even if it is only yourself! === ummccal1 is now known as ebonair [20:26] wilkie_, I assume the windows machines already have user accts , so he knows what to do [20:28] Does anybody in here use E-UAE?
