OerHeksdigitig, open dolphin, goto the folder, right-mouse > property's and then the [tab] share , this wil run samba00:00
digitigOerHerks: I've made a folder shared, but the Windows machine still doesn't see anything. I suspect it's because the user names are different; is there any way to give access to the Linux files whatever the Windows user names? I have multiple Windows computers in the house and the user names are not the same across them.00:04
yofeldifferent workgroup maybe?00:05
digitigyofel: Well, the case was different. It shouldn't have mattered from the Windows end, but I've made it consistent anyway. Still can't see either machine from the other.00:10
Snooffywhat would be wise size for a swap partition for kubuntu?01:22
Snooffywould 2gb be enough?01:22
wildgooseSnooffy, How much RAM do you have?01:23
SnooffyI guess when you want to use hibernation it should be at least the size of your ram right?01:23
Snooffywildgoose: :D 4GB01:23
Snooffyso 4gb should be fine or it should be a bit more?01:23
Linkmaster4GBs should be plenty01:23
wildgooseNo that should be more than enough01:24
yofeldepends on what you do, if you only need 4G then you don't need swap. But if you want to hibernate you'll need as much swap as you have ram used when you hibernate01:24
LinkmasterMy system originally had a 1.5gig swap, with 1gig of RAM. It hung up occassionally, but now that my swap is 5.8gigs, I have no worries...01:24
* yofel has 8GiB of RAM + 4GB swap - and a totally non-standard system :P01:25
Snooffyok TY01:25
Snooffythe trouble is  that before I left home 2day I've put the system to hibernation, I was in a bit hurry and it ended up with "not enough space 4 swap" or something and did not wanted to shut down. As I was in hurry I had to drastically hit the PWR button on the tower. What will happen when I will come back home and fire it up again? Will there be blood?01:28
frogonwheelsSnooffy: not too much. thanks to journaling file systems :)01:28
LinkmasterI've force powered off my linux system several times, nothing too bad happens. It probably grumbles to itself, but never lets me know about it ;D01:32
SnooffyLinkmaster: lol01:32
Snooffyso it should be fine... as soon as I'll have some time I will change the Partition for swap to 6gb which should to the right job even for hibernation01:33
Snooffygot another one... in natty with vlc even there is "disable screensaver" ticked it still let the scrn saver to take over the screen. I had to disable the scrn saver to be able to watch the whole movie. I found a bug which was exactly like the problem I've got but that was  a few releases back... ideas?01:48
* szal has disabled screensaver and screen powersaving anyway01:49
* Snooffy likes a nice sophisticated screensaver for discrete moments etc.. .:PP01:54
DaskreechLinkmaster: You can screw stuff up pretyt bad though :)01:57
LinkmasterDaskreech: I know, I haven't done it while doing anything[such as updating a package]02:00
* Linkmaster shudders at the thought02:00
DaskreechThat you know of :)02:00

Snooffyguys, if i will change size of my "home" partition using hte partition manager in kde will i lose data?03:30
Snooffyand can i change swap partition when is the system actually running?03:30
LinkmasterSnooffy: I suggest a backup, and if at all possible, use gparted or the like so that the system is not running. its usually....bad to partition drives that are in use03:34
SnooffyLinkmaster: will do than.. as for gparted can it change the part size not to lose the data?03:36
LinkmasterIf you are increasing it, you're fine, if you're shrinking it..I believe it notifies you when it cant' be shrunk anymore03:37
Snooffyand as for the swap partition, will linux automatically take care of it when i make the partition bigger when it'll be booting or i have to set it up somewhere else?03:38
SnooffyLinkmaster: cheers.03:38
LinkmasterI'm not exactly sure03:38
LinkmasterI don't usually mess with my partitions more then once, and when I do, I do a complete computer reinstall03:39
SnooffyOk i will try it when i get home, there is nothing too important yet, just all the settings of kde and stuff, I've installed it just a few days back so there will be no harm if i would actually bugger it03:41

gigenieksHi all!17:05
Graf_WesterholtHi, gigenieks.17:06
gigenieksJust to clarify - I have shrinked via Disc Management (in Win7) C: partion to leave Kubuntu 37GB of "unallocated space" read some posts in Ubuntu Forums and17:06
gigenieksI'm going now install Kubuntu 11.04 64bit17:07
gigenieksi need to choose "install alongside" it will pick that "unallocated space" right?17:07
gigenieksnot manually17:07
Daskreechgigenieks: \o/17:08
DaskreechYes that should work17:08
gigenieksMeaning it wont suddenly think to divede my Windows 7 partion ..17:08
gigenieksinstead take "unallocated space"17:09
tsimpsonit shouldn't, but it will tell you what it's going to do before it actually does it17:09
tsimpsonso just read carefully :)17:09

DarkriftXis there an easy way to hide a window that is also easy to unhide it?17:28
DarkriftXI want to leave something open that I dont want my kids to get into if they get on my computer17:28
Graf_WesterholtDragnslcr, lock the PC.17:32
Graf_Westerholtsorr17:32
Graf_WesterholtDarkriftX17:32
DarkriftXI can lock it but others need to access it sometimes17:32
Graf_WesterholtThat is no problem.17:32
DarkriftXI just need some stuff to stay open and they always close my stuff17:32
DarkriftXI know I can create them another profile, but thats too advanced for htem17:32
tsimpsonyou can have more than one user logged in at a time17:32
Graf_WesterholtYou can lock you session and they can start their own session.17:32
DarkriftXif I can just hide one window so it doesnt show on taskbar or as a window, that would be great17:33
DarkriftXor even if it showed on a different desktop only17:33
Graf_WesterholtThat is possible, DarkriftX.17:33
Graf_WesterholtYou can set that in the Window-Options.17:33
DarkriftXI am not trying to REALLY hide it, just make it less visible so they are less likely to close it when they are closing their own (its a chrome window)17:34
DarkriftXthey open chrome, browse the internet opening 10 more windows, then close them all. and the one I have left open gets closed17:34
DarkriftXit annoys the hell out of me17:34
tsimpsonput it on another "desktop"17:34
DarkriftXI will try that, my taskbar currently shows all desktops windows so I will have to check the settings17:35
Graf_WesterholtDarkriftX, press Alt+F3, go to „Advanced → Special Window settings“.17:35
Graf_WesterholtOn „Preferences“ select „skip taskbar: force“.17:35
Graf_WesterholtThat's it.17:36
DarkriftXoooh, I was able to change taskbar to show only current desktop and move it to desktop 217:36
DarkriftXnot sure why I only thought of that when I asked17:36
Graf_WesterholtDarkriftX :)17:37
DaskreechDarkriftX: Throw it into an activity and turn off the activity17:43
Daskreech4 solutions to one problem ^_^17:44
DarkriftXlol17:44
DarkriftXI just figured there might be a cli method to do it, but hte one I tried works17:45

bobweaverare there three options18:30
Daskreechgigenieks: If you choose guided it will have an option to use empty space18:30
gigenieksThere is no guides there is only 2 options:18:30

gigeniekssee my post18:30
gigenieksnstead I have 2 choices:18:30
gigenieksGuided - use entire disk18:30
gigenieksManual18:30
gigenieksI understand that I have to choose18:31
gigenieks"Manual"18:31
gigenieksBUT18:31
bobweavertry and re-install ubiquity and up date to see if that helps18:31
gigeniekswhich partion type should I use "primary" or "logical"18:31

gigenieks?18:31

bobweaverubiquity is the installer18:31
bobweaverit dont matter that it is live18:32
bobweaveras long as you have internet connection18:32
gigenieksIt shows graphically that entire hard disk would be for Kubuntu (which I dont want)18:32
gigenieksI need dual-boot18:32
DaskreechI know just saying it's a pretty big fail if the live CD doesn't ship with a proper way to install :)18:32
bobweaverif there is only two options then ubiquity is messed up18:32
gigenieksthats why I have to go for "Manual"18:32
Daskreechgigenieks: ok let's do Manual then18:32
gigenieksyeah18:32

home_is there any book to learn the commands in ternimal ?20:20
yofel!cli20:21
ubottuThe linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE).  Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal or type in it: man intro20:21
yofelwould be one starting point20:21
yofelusually every command has a manpage 'man <command>' or prints some help with -h or --help20:22

Oxymoron I try again with HDMI. Have someone else tried to fix HDMI output from ubuntu? How do you search for bug search it? I googled and found a earlier bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/722501, I have exact same laptop ulvt with nvidia G21020:28
ubottuUbuntu bug 722501 in xserver-xorg-video-intel (Ubuntu) "[g45] GMA 4500MHD on UL30Vt doesn't support HDMI output" [Undecided,Expired]20:28
home_lol20:29
home_and my lifecam is not supported.20:29
home_I hate to say this but, when skype and camera do not work then linux users say I don't use skype and they don't have web camera. When you say HDMI output is not working in linux they say I don't use HDMI output. When you say something is not working in linux the don't use it ALL BY COINCIDENCE ! If you wou;dn't be able to drink water using linux then these guys don't drink water at all. If there are problems FIX THEM ! We switched to20:31
home_Linux don't dissapoint us.20:31
Oxymoron  home_: hha :D20:33
home_we have 2011 , come on linux people make it work.20:34
home_we fly rockets to the moon and we can't find a way to make a stupid lifecam web camera work in linux ? these guys are bored.20:35
Graf_WesterholtMaybe you can fix it and make it work, home_.20:35
home_I cannot fix it on my own20:36
Oersome hardware just doesn't work, wich lifecam do you have ?20:38
home_Oer:  lifecam cinema20:38
Oerand your mic does not work, did you check alsamixer ?20:39
Oerterminal> alsamixer20:40
Oerand press F4 Capture20:40
Oerand maybe F6 for different soundcard drive20:40
home_yes I did something like that and then i found a solution on some forums that alsamixer sucks and when you remove it then it will work but it doesn't20:40
home_so it's removed now20:41
Oerso you have no music at all ?20:42
home_apparently the sound of my system works just fine20:42
home_I can listen to songs etc.20:42
Oxymoronhome_: This is why I have problem to like Linux, most ex ternal products does not work. Mostly its not because of the devs, its because of a *** company market jailing their API with patents and closed source.20:42
home_only that I cannot adjust the sound through kubuntu now but only from my speakers20:42
home_Oxymoron:  these companies work for Bill Gates20:43
Oxymoronhome_: Steve JObs as well ...20:44
home_once these devices work very easily and without effort at all sudently the whole planet earth will switch to Linux and Bill Gates will commit suicide.20:44
Oerpls stay ontopic20:44
home_why do you think Bill gates bought skype ?20:44
home_ok I will stay on topic20:44
Oerre-install alsa will do20:44
OxymoronIn my utopic world every single like device should work with same API. So developers only need to program ONCE general drivers that work for every single graphic card for instance, or MPplayer, smartphone or whatever.20:44
home_is it the alsamixer gui I have to download again?20:48
home_or the alsamixer for gnome ?20:48
OxymoronBut for now I am trying to quirk HDMI to work. A simple video/audio connection wants to send output to my TV,20:48
home_good luck for this simple task20:48
home_try to use youtube and you may find you are the only one in this planet trying to find it out20:49
OxymoronI cannot found  any drivers or nvidias website for G210M x64 system, and I tried proprietary drivers, do not work either.20:49
OxymoronEven if video would work, it seems audio will be my next problem.20:50
OxymoronI have googled and I do not find anything useful, not even on forums.20:51
home_these problems should be ok until 204520:53
home_you may want to try linux at that time in the future20:53
OxymoronWindows have no problem find the EDID output directly, and that before it even have logged in to the desktop ...20:54
home_I wanted to use linux because I travel a lot and I don't want them to check my hard drive and notice that I have pirated windows21:01
