[07:01] <introuble> helo
[07:03] <introuble> my isntallation is stuck since 30mins at 19% wiping swap space for security . do i need to wory?
[07:11] <well_laid_lawn> I would think it is hung introuble
[07:11] <introuble> what should i do. it everytime does the same when i restart installation
[07:12] <well_laid_lawn> introuble: do you have enough memory?
[07:12] <well_laid_lawn> did you md5 the iso and cd ?
[07:12] <well_laid_lawn> !md5
[07:13] <introuble> well_laid_lawn 512 ram
[07:13] <introuble> well_laid_lawn 1g swap
[07:13] <introuble> well_laid_lawn iso live cd
[07:14] <well_laid_lawn> sounds ok for memory
[07:14] <well_laid_lawn> did you md5 the iso and cd ?
[07:15] <introuble> well_laid_lawn iso live cd
[07:16] <well_laid_lawn> introuble: you've said that twice and twice I asked if you checked it - it's important at this stage
[07:16] <roland> Hi. I've running KDE 11.04 for quite a long time now. And anytime I leave the computer on for extended periods, KMail will go grazy after a few days, and cannot be restarted for whatever reason(nepomuk?). Anyone else noticed this phenomenon?
[07:16] <well_laid_lawn> since you have errors
[07:16] <introuble> well_laid_lawn i didnt
[07:16] <well_laid_lawn> guess what I'll suggest then introuble
[07:17] <introuble> ok..
[07:17] <introuble> letme
[07:18] <aLeSD> hi ... what do u think about kubuntu for a netbook ?
[07:19] <introuble> aLeSD nice choice
[07:19] <aLeSD> I am choosing between xubuntu and kubuntu
[07:19] <introuble> netbook or laptop?
[07:19] <introuble> aLeSD i like kubuntu
[07:19] <aLeSD> introuble, netbook
[07:19] <introuble> ask someone else
[07:20] <introuble> i never used one
[07:22] <roland> aLeSD: do you have the laptop already?
[07:22] <aLeSD> yes
[07:22] <aLeSD> I'm quitting ubuntu
[07:22] <roland> then make it dualboot  and try it out
[07:23] <roland> or just install kubuntu-desktop on your current ubuntu and try
[07:23] <roland> or use the liveCD
[07:23] <aLeSD> roland, is it the same ?
[07:23] <aLeSD> kubuntu-desktop
[07:23] <roland> kubuntu-desktop downloads all packages necessary to try out KDE
[07:24] <roland> maybe even more than necessary but, still works
[07:24] <roland> you can choose which to use gnome/kde from the login promt
[07:28] <roland> aLeSD: the only difference when installing kubuntu-desktop on a ubuntu system, is that you have all your gnome apps.
[07:31] <aLeSD> I will use kde with only cairo dock
[08:40] <introuble> is www.w3schools.com authenticated and helpful for learning any thing like php ? if yes. why http://w3fools.com/ exists ?
[08:44] <redeyyez> http://pastebin.com/WPAuymmE
[08:44] <jtheuer> is there a (possible older) but more stable version of openoffice/libreoffice available for natty? My version 1:3.3.2-1ubuntu5  crashes every ~15minutes :-(
[08:45] <redeyyez> My info about some xserver issues.
[08:54] <redeyyez> lovin linux tho
[08:55] <James147> redeyyez: ^^ it generally helps to state the problem then paste the link as most people dont just click random links without knowing what the issue is :)
[08:56] <well_laid_lawn> and maybe paste the X log and ~/.xsession-errors
[08:57] <redeyyez> James147: very true. Realized it as I had done It.
[08:57] <redeyyez> well_laid_lawn: working on doing that now.
[08:59] <redeyyez> well_laid_lawn: can't find that file don't even see that folder
[09:00] <introuble> my kubuntu isntallation is stuck since 30mins at 19% wiping swap space for security . and if it goes to 23% it gives an installer crash.
[09:01] <well_laid_lawn> redeyyez: The X log is /var/log/Xorg.0.log and the xsession file should be a hidden file in your home dir
[09:01] <well_laid_lawn> introuble: the iso passed the md5 check?
[09:02] <introuble> well_laid_lawn i check it at boot option. it passed
[09:03] <well_laid_lawn> k

[12:41] <BluesKaj> Hi all
[13:02] <Shirakawasuna> is there an apt equivalent of archlinux's pkgfile -s command? (search for a file/dir that a given package would install, if you downloaded it)
[13:02] <Shirakawasuna> ?
[13:03] <BATi> Shirakawasuna: either use aptitude, or install apt-cache
[13:03] <BluesKaj> Shirakawasuna, apt-cache-search
[13:06] <szal> BATi, BluesKaj: those search for pkg names, not for files..  if you want to search for files, use apt-file
[13:06] <BATi> Shirakawasuna: oh, sorry, it's apt-file
[13:06] <Shirakawasuna> ah, good :)
[13:07] <Shirakawasuna> that would explain why apt-cache isn't working ;)
[13:16] <BluesKaj> szal, right , my old memory fails me ....again
[13:21] <andrej4k> Hello, can anybody help me resquing my borked partition table? parted can't see anything but fdisk and testdisk still see it (also kubuntu live cd)

[14:38] <Ddpbf> your home
[14:39] <Ddpbf> ~/.gnupg to be precise
[14:40] <Ddpbf> if you allowed kwallet to access kmail it will konow all kmail knows
[14:41] <BluesKaj> kwallet is a pita
[14:42] <Ddpbf> kwallet is excelent thing

[15:18] <BluesKaj> amanforindia, click on the cashew on the right hand side of the panel , choose your options
[15:19] <amanforindia> ya i did and registered on opendesktop.org but nothing is showing up
[15:23] <szal> any recommendation for a screencasting tool?  recordmydesktop seems outdated (no new versions for 3 years), and the Qt frontend (qt-recordmydesktop) is nowhere to be found packaged
[15:24] <BluesKaj> amanforindia, registered on opendesktop.org ?
[15:24] <amanforindia> yup
[15:24] <BluesKaj> what does that mean ?
[15:25] <amanforindia> yes
[15:25] <vikapi> Ddpbf, the instructions mentiond are already done in kmail.now i guess i ve to make kwallet kmail aware.
[15:25] <Ddpbf> vikapi: good luck :)
[15:26] <vikapi> aha
[15:26] <amanforindia> You are about to log in to the site "api.opendesktop.org" with the username "amanforindia", but the website does not require authentication. This may be an attempt to trick you.
[15:26] <amanforindia> Is "api.opendesktop.org" the site you want to visit?
[15:26] <amanforindia> it keeps showing this
[15:26] <BluesKaj> registered on opendesktop.org ..what does that do for the panel , amanforindia ..don't think you understand what I suggested
[15:27] <amanforindia> umm.. what?
[15:30] <vikapi> Ddbpf: should use kwalletcli for gpg-kwallet integration??
[15:30] <amanforindia> registered on opendesktop through the widget....
[15:31] <Ddpbf> vikapi: yes
[15:32] <BluesKaj>  the community icon for the panel ..sorry , amanforindia never used that link ...my apologies for my misunderstanding
[15:32] <Ddpbf> vikapi: you stumbled upon some very old bug
[15:33] <Ddpbf> :)
[15:33] <Ddpbf> http://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=20&t=33189 this is proposed workaround
[15:34] <amanforindia> so? any solution?
[15:43] <BluesKaj> amanforindia, did you go to the site directly with your browser to register

[17:13] <rdallarmi> hi, is there a possibility to roll back kubuntu updates? ( and no, I do not have the lsit of the latest updates). yesterday I was notified a number of updates were available, bu applying them broke my development environment
[17:14] <Ddpbf> rdallarmi: strictly speaking it is possible
[17:15] <Ddpbf> aptitude fralback
[17:15] <Ddpbf> but you have to have older versions of packages somewhere
[17:19] <rdallarmi> Ddpbf: strictly speaking... how?
[17:19] <Ddpbf> rdallarmi: it is possibile
[17:19] <Ddpbf> but you *must* to have older packages
[17:20] <Ddpbf> i ment theoretically
[17:20] <Ddpbf> sorry for mistake
[17:20] <Ddpbf> lapsus tastaturae
[17:20] <Ddpbf> :)
[17:21] <BluesKaj> rdallarmi, are you running 11.10?
[17:21] <rdallarmi> point is, even if I go nuclear and re-install it from scartch, first update will break my system again
[17:21] <rdallarmi> yes
[17:23] <BluesKaj> rdallarmi, join #ubuntu+1 for help ,..I ran 11.10 for a while but it broke so badly i couldn't recover ,stuck in dependency hell
[17:23] <Ddpbf> kdesudo kate /var/log/apt/term.log if you want to see log of your update

[18:28] <kyubutsu> how to change system font , target: ubuntu font
[18:29] <kyubutsu> 11.04
[18:31] <Graf_Westerholt> kyubutsu, ALT+F2 „font“?
[18:34] <kyubutsu> that works
[18:35] <kyubutsu> although, i have the impression ubuntu font looks different under gnome
[18:36] <kyubutsu> it is default for 11.04 as well. just that it looks , smaller
[18:38] <kyubutsu> anyway, whats with rekonq freezing up so much
[18:39] <Graf_Westerholt> kyubutsu, here rekonq is not freezing.
[18:40] <kyubutsu> fresh install, cannot open up a page without fear of it turning unresponsive
[18:41] <kyubutsu> bug tracker is not even coming up . only option is to force quit
[18:43] <vikapi> still having issue while signing mails in Kmail..
[18:52] <vikapi> it says bad passphrase when tryin to send emails using kmail with GPG
[18:54] <avihay> hi, can anyone with an intel GM965 can tell me about how much cpu does kwin take when useing compositing?
[18:55] <avihay> or a similar card

[18:59] <vikapi> Graf_Westerholt: and got fixed?
[18:59] <Graf_Westerholt> vikapi, yes, I am searching for the fix.
[18:59] <Ddpbf> vikapi: have you checked link from kde forums?
[19:00] <Ddpbf> http://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=20&t=33189
[19:00] <vikapi> Ddpbf: yes i have..seems like i ve met all their reqmt..
[19:00] <Ddpbf> wich pinentry you have
[19:00] <Ddpbf> qt or gtk?
[19:00] <Graf_Westerholt> Yes, that is the fix I used.
[19:00] <vikapi> Ddpbf: mysql-server-5.1
[19:01] <Graf_Westerholt> But I think I changed gtk-2 to gtk-4
[19:01] <vikapi> sorry pinentry-qt4
[19:01] <Ddpbf> errr
[19:01] <vikapi> i shud use gtk4???
[19:01] <Ddpbf> gus you are using kde
[19:01] <Ddpbf> qt
[19:01] <Ddpbf> you should fix that line
[19:02] <Ddpbf> so it corresponds qt
[19:02] <Ddpbf> pinentry-qt4
[19:02] <Graf_Westerholt> „pinentry-program /usr/bin/pinentry-qt4“ That's the line in ~/.gnupg/gpg-agent.con
[19:03] <Graf_Westerholt> ~/.gnupg/gpg-agent.conf of course
[19:05] <vikapi> Dbpbf: http://pastebin.com/Mjwe5CpA
[19:06] <vikapi> Dbpbf: any change to be made in gpg.conf??

[21:00] <Macer> maybe i will try ubuntu and see if that will boot
[21:01] <Macer> try it from the thumb drive

[21:03] <Macer> i encrypted  the home dir
[21:03] <BluesKaj> looks like a cool project , unichrome graphics is an unknown quantity afaik
[21:04] <Macer> it wont let  me login to my acct from a shell
[21:04] <Macer> but then again i had the  same problem starting kde in debian
[21:05] <Macer> maybe it is some  awkward kde video  thing
[21:07] <Macer> i will try booting the live cd thumb drive i made
[21:07] <BluesKaj> Macer, the driver is xserver-xorg-video-openchrome
[21:07] <Macer> if it is  the encrypted dir then i suppose that should start
[21:08] <Macer> BluesKaj: yeah... it seems to want to start and even looks like it adjusts the res
[21:08] <Macer> i am  going to try to run it  from the usb drive
[21:09] <Macer> and if it starts i will reinstall
[21:09] <BluesKaj> try rebooting and holding the sgift key down right after the bios scrn til grub loads then choose the recovery kernel and "repair broken packages " , or checkout the nomodeset options
[21:09] <BluesKaj> !nomodeset
[21:09] <Macer> the liveusb started
[21:09] <BluesKaj> er shift key
[21:10] <Macer> is there a way to drop it to vesa?
[21:11] <Macer> i figured the failsafe would be generic vga
[21:15] <BluesKaj> Macer, that driver should work , probly needs the vesa as you say , but if you're able to boot into the install then look in kemnu>apps>system>additional drivers ..there should be a recommended graphics driver to enable there
[21:16] <BluesKaj> which should be the openchrome driver
[21:17] <Ddpbf> BluesKaj: jockey is only for proprietary drivers
[21:17] <Ddpbf> afaik only solution for openchrome is floss driver
[21:18] <Ddpbf> wich is coming with *buntu preinstalled
[21:19] <ubuntu____> hiya, could someone help me with recovering my root.disk
[21:19] <ubuntu____> i'm not sure why, but i'm welcomed to a grub prompt when i am booting now
[21:19] <ubuntu____> will not boot kubuntu
[21:19] <ubuntu____> i installed through wubi
[21:20] <ubuntu____> i'm trying to mount the root.disk from a live cd right now, and am getting Input/output error
[21:20] <ubuntu____> when i ls -la on /win/ubuntu/disks, i get ???????? ? ? for the permissions etc of root.disk
[21:21] <Macer> Ddpbf: i am reinstalling now
[21:21] <Macer> and disabled the encryption
[21:21] <BluesKaj> Ddpbf,  it uses the openchrome driver aka xserver-xorg-video-openchrome
[21:22] <Ddpbf> that is opensource driver
[21:22] <BluesKaj> it's the default in ubuntu repos
[21:22] <Ddpbf> i remember ther was few bugs for that driver in launchpad
[21:23] <Macer> Ddpbf: like i am having? :-)
[21:23] <Ddpbf> not
[21:23] <ubuntu____> i'll actually pay someone $100.00 to talk me through fixing this :(
[21:23] <Ddpbf> Macer: that bug was solve easilly
[21:24] <Ddpbf> jyou need to create xorg.conf
[21:24] <Macer> well.  i just hope it is a problem with the encryption
[21:24] <Macer> wow.. create one? thats old school.. havent gone through  those steps  in a long time
[21:25] <Macer> 1 1 1 2 4 2 resolutions
[21:25] <Macer> hahha
[21:25] <Macer> i hated using the x vesa based config
[21:27] <Ddpbf> worst thing is xorg.conf i decapriated
[21:28] <Ddpbf> but it is only way sometimes to kernel to find out wich module needs to be laded
[21:28] <szal> ubuntu_______: forget about Wubi & do a real install..  and fix your wifi connection ;)
[21:28] <BluesKaj> Ddpbf, one can never be sure whether a proprietary driver is listed in menu or not so it doesn't hurt to check
[21:30] <ubuntu_______> szal: believe me i would, but there is work stuff on my wubi install
[21:30] <ubuntu_______> even if i can just recover these files, i'll consider it "solved"
[21:30] <Ddpbf> BluesKaj: if company is not interested to write one  there is no point to check
[21:31] <Macer> Ddpbf: which is  why  i am hoping it is a problem with the home dir encryption
[21:31] <BluesKaj> Ddpbf, so how do know id you don't check is my point
[21:31] <^waffles> i've changed name to ^waffles to be easier to find
[21:31] <Ddpbf> I am, administrator on ubuntu-rs .org I read a lot themes about
[21:32] <Ddpbf> hardware compability :)
[21:32] <Macer> Ddpbf: have a g+ acct?
[21:32] <BluesKaj> Macer, i doubt whether encryption of your /home dir has much to do with it
[21:32] <Ddpbf> Me too
[21:32] <Ddpbf> It could be dkms issue
[21:33] <Macer> why wont the failsafe run then?
[21:33] <BluesKaj> what about noapci?
[21:33] <Macer> that is vga isnt it?
[21:33] <Macer> generic driver?
[21:33] <Ddpbf> Macer you read logs?
[21:34] <Macer> couldnt get to them
[21:34] <Ddpbf> from live cd?
[21:34] <Macer> didnt know holding  shift gets me  boot  options
[21:34] <Macer> live works
[21:34] <Macer> i can run it off the thumb drive
[21:35] <BluesKaj> !noapci
[21:35] <Macer> er
[21:35] <szal> !pm | ^waffles
[21:36] <Ddpbf> Macer: try to boot with parameter noacpi
[21:36] <^waffles> i think i did post the question in the channel
[21:36] <^waffles> sorry if you found that rude
[21:36] <BluesKaj> !info noapci
[21:36] <^waffles> i'm just desperate :x
[21:36] <Macer> Ddpbf: i will try once this install is  done
[21:37] <BluesKaj> anyway BBL ... errands
[21:37] <Macer> 1GHz 1GB .. it is slow
[21:37] <Macer> :-)
[21:37] <Macer> but it's 15W max
[21:37] <szal> ^waffles: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1639198 <- a whole lot of stuff to read; if your question isn't answered there, you might want to post it there; I suppose you'll be more successful that way, not many ppl on IRC use Wubi on a regular basis
[21:38] <^waffles> szal the problem is i can't even mount the root.disk :X
[21:38] <^waffles> i get an Input/output error
[21:40] <Macer> ^waffles: what is the problem?
[21:41] <^waffles> i can no longer boot into kubuntu, which i installed with wubi; i get a grub prompt
[21:42] <Macer> no longer?
[21:42] <^waffles> right i was using it for about 4 months
[21:42] <^waffles> then i stopped using it for 2 weeks
[21:42] <Macer> as in it worked and now it isnt booting?
[21:42] <^waffles> corect
[21:42] <^waffles> 4 months worth of work on it :(
[21:42] <Macer> broken/dead drive?
[21:42] <^waffles> the hard drive works
[21:42] <^waffles> but i cannot mount root.disk
[21:42] <Macer> try fsck?
[21:43] <^waffles> how would i run that on a virtual drive
[21:43] <Macer> oh
[21:43] <^waffles> maybe you can i'm not that knowledgable about it
[21:44] <Macer> boot an iso
[21:44] <^waffles> i'm on a live cd right now
[21:44] <Macer> run fsck on the host as well
[21:44] <Macer> fsck from the live cd
[21:44] <Macer> the virtual drive  should still be under /dev
[21:45] <Ddpbf> good night ppl
[21:45] <^waffles> how do you mean it should be under /dev
[21:46] <^waffles> i see root.disk under /win/ubuntu/disks
[21:46] <^waffles> (mounted the oflder to /win)
[21:46] <^waffles> but i can't mount the virtual disk
[21:48] <Macer> use scandisk :)
[21:48] <Macer> maybe the  virtual drive has bitrot
[21:50] <^waffles> you can scan a virtual drive with scandisk?
[21:50] <^waffles> o_O
[21:51] <^waffles> https://gist.github.com/97ef91b49f8dd251bbf4
[21:51] <^waffles> i get this nice message
[21:51] <^waffles> when i try to fsck
[21:51] <^waffles> the disk
[21:52] <FloodBotK2> ^waffles: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[21:53] <Macer> er
[21:53] <Macer> looks like your root.disk is broken
[21:54] <^waffles> i'd say so
[21:54] <^waffles> so at this point, i'm really hoping on recovering the files
[21:54] <gomiboy> ^waffles: tried "sudo fsck /win/ubuntu/disks/root.disk"?
[21:55] <^waffles> yes
[21:55] <^waffles> same error message
[21:55] <Macer> ok......
[21:55] <^waffles> also, i get ??????? ? ? for permissions owner and date when i ls -la btw
[21:56] <Macer> ARGH!
[21:56] <Macer> still doesnt work
[21:57] <Macer> it starts the login and i get the splash screen and it kicks back to kdm right at the end
[22:05] <Macer> well
[22:05] <Macer> this is odd
[22:06] <Macer> at least i have a console now
[22:06] <Macer> how do i change Xorg so it uses the vga driver ?
[22:06] <Macer> there is obviously something wrong with the unichrome open one
[22:09] <gomiboy> Macer: you should have a /etc/X11/xorg.conf.failsafe (with vesa driver), copy it to /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[22:09] <Macer> ah ok
[22:10] <Macer> it  is  a problem with the video driver... wow
[22:12] <Infernet> Macer: and you video card is?
[22:13] <Macer> via unichrome.. it  is an artigo a1000
[22:13] <Macer> removing the unichrome xserver kind of worked
[22:14] <Macer> but now i have no  acceleration
[22:14] <Macer> and  there  dont seem  to be proprietary drivers for it
[22:15] <Infernet> Macer: have your card video proprietary drivers?
[22:16] <Macer> i am looking now
[22:17] <Infernet> check apliccations, system, additional drivers
[22:17] <gomiboy> Macer: read man openchrome, maybe there are some options you can try to enable/disable to make it work
[22:18] <Macer> it is a cx700/vx700
[22:22] <redeyyez> seems as if flash web pages are causing my xserver to crash :((
[22:22] <Macer> hm...
[22:23] <Macer> it cant be this simple
[22:25] <Macer> damn
[22:25] <Macer> guess not
[22:27] <Macer> need to look at these damn xorg logs
[22:27] <BajK> what's the easiest way to revert from Ubuntu to Kubuntu without installing Kubuntu? :D install kubuntu-desktop, then remove ubuntu-desktop and do autoremove --purge?
[22:29] <andrewx> to permanently delete the command-history from a terminal session, I do what?
[22:29] <Amartolos> i just installed windows on a second partition. how can i renenable grub and ubuntu in boot?
[22:30] <Amartolos> andrewx: rm .bash_history
[22:30] <andrewx> ah yes.
[22:30] <andrewx> that did not work!
[22:32] <gomiboy> Amartolos: grub-install
[22:33] <andrewx> 'history -c' for crying out loud
[22:33] <andrewx> Just what did I accomplish with 'rm .bash_history' then?
[22:34] <andrewx> appears 'history -c' did what I wanted.
[22:35] <BluesKaj> BajK, well autoremove should be sufficient
[22:35] <BajK> ok
[22:35] <Macer> ok
[22:36] <Macer> it  is definately the video driver
[22:36] <Amartolos> andrewx: .history was the file
[22:36] <Amartolos> rm .history
[22:36] <Macer> seems like i do have to make my own xorg.conf :-(
[22:36] <BluesKaj> purge might get rid of importanr conf files . BajK
[22:36] <Macer> and it does look like the dpms
[22:37] <Macer> what pkg is xorgconfig a part of?
[22:38] <BajK> BluesKaj: that's what I wanted to but what should be important if the package is not needed anymore? but well, I will tell her^^
[22:39] <luigi187_> !listen
[22:40] <luigi187_> !fims
[22:56] <Macer> hm
[23:17] <Macer> ugh
[23:17] <Macer> i cant get this damn unichrome  working on this artigo
[23:17] <Infernet> Macer: not working yet?
[23:17] <Macer> i give up ive tried everything
[23:17] <Macer> no
[23:17] <Macer> :(
[23:18] <Macer> it works using the vga driver
[23:18] <Macer> there is no via driver for 11.04
[23:18] <Macer> so i am guessing it wont work in ubuntu either
[23:18] <Macer> this sucks
[23:19] <Macer> i guess i will sell it
[23:19] <Macer> it is useless
[23:19] <Macer> damn you via!
[23:19] <Infernet> xD
[23:19] <Macer> never again!
[23:19] <Macer> i hope atom crushes you
[23:19] <Macer> bet all the atom based boards work!
[23:19] <Infernet> :P
[23:20] <Macer> ive even seen omaps run kubuntu!
[23:20] <Macer> :-)
[23:20] <Macer> but a via  cant? shameful via.. just  shameful
[23:34] <ussher_> I have just added another video card and 2 monitors to make 4.  I can move the mouse to all 4 but on 2 of them the cursor becomes an X and I cant move any applications to those screens.  It feels like KDE isnt running there.  Is there a GUI way to fix this or do i need to mess around with xorg.conf?
[23:34] <ussher_> oh, its nvidia
[23:39] <gomiboy> ussher_: if you see the X cursor it means that xorg configuration is ok... check in "System Settings" -> Display and Monitor" -> "Multiple Monitors"
[23:39] <redeyyez> trying to install the nvidia driver for my pc, when i click additional drivers it says the driver has been activated but not in use.
[23:39] <redeyyez> what does this mean
[23:41] <gomiboy> redeyyez: the simplest way is to reboot if you have just installed it
[23:41] <ussher_> gomiboy: thanks for the hand.  in "Multiple monitors" it says "This module is only for configuring systems with a single desktop spread across multiple monitors, You do not appear to have this configuration."  (but it alwasy said that even with 2.)
[23:41] <redeyyez> I did reboot like it said, says its active now but not inuse.
[23:42] <ussher_> gomiboy: both cards are nvidia now, so i used the nvidia server settings GUI.  and when the cards wernt nvidia i used 'arandr' for the screen location setup.
[23:44] <gomiboy> ussher_: then i can't help... you could have better luck in #kde... (my single 19 inches monitor cries...) :D
[23:44] <Infernet> redeyyez: find in applications, system, nvidia x server settings
[23:45] <ussher_> gomiboy: thanks.  there is a ton of stuff on the web for 'similar' things, but nothing that fits exactly.
[23:48] <redeyyez> from reading in forums it appears this is a bug in 11.04 though it claims its not in use others say it is anyway.
[23:49] <BluesKaj> redeyyez, yes, if your desktop effects are working then the driver is working properly the message that it's not in use is bogus..been a bug for a while now
[23:52] <redeyyez> yeah i just switched the driver.  There was 2 availible for my card from nvidia.  Wierd flickering on opposite monitor when i resize things.  That and xsrver loves to crash when i run flash in a browser.  Hopefully this other driver will work better
[23:52]  * redeyyez crosses his fingers
[23:53] <Infernet> redeyyez: refresh rate?
[23:53] <Infernet> i have a problem with this
[23:54] <redeyyez> the normal settings shows a different one than nvidia's
[23:54] <redeyyez> 60 hz refresh rate.
[23:56] <redeyyez> i changed the settings / monitor settings one to auto nvidias set it at 60
[23:59] <Infernet> i too
