[00:00] <OerHeks> digitig, open dolphin, goto the folder, right-mouse > property's and then the [tab] share , this wil run samba
[00:04] <digitig> OerHerks: 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.
[00:05] <yofel> different workgroup maybe?
[00:10] <digitig> yofel: 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.
[01:22] <Snooffy> what would be wise size for a swap partition for kubuntu?
[01:22] <Snooffy> would 2gb be enough?
[01:23] <wildgoose> Snooffy, How much RAM do you have?
[01:23] <Snooffy> I guess when you want to use hibernation it should be at least the size of your ram right?
[01:23] <Snooffy> wildgoose: :D 4GB
[01:23] <Snooffy> so 4gb should be fine or it should be a bit more?
[01:23] <Linkmaster> 4GBs should be plenty
[01:24] <wildgoose> No that should be more than enough
[01:24] <yofel> depends 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 hibernate
[01:24] <Linkmaster> My 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...
[01:25]  * yofel has 8GiB of RAM + 4GB swap - and a totally non-standard system :P
[01:25] <Snooffy> ok TY
[01:28] <Snooffy> the 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] <frogonwheels> Snooffy: not too much. thanks to journaling file systems :)
[01:32] <Linkmaster> I'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 ;D
[01:32] <Snooffy> Linkmaster: lol
[01:33] <Snooffy> so 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 hibernation
[01:48] <Snooffy> got 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?
[01:49]  * szal has disabled screensaver and screen powersaving anyway
[01:54]  * Snooffy likes a nice sophisticated screensaver for discrete moments etc.. .:PP
[01:57] <Daskreech> Linkmaster: You can screw stuff up pretyt bad though :)
[02:00] <Linkmaster> Daskreech: I know, I haven't done it while doing anything[such as updating a package]
[02:00]  * Linkmaster shudders at the thought
[02:00] <Daskreech> That you know of :)
[03:30] <Snooffy> guys, if i will change size of my "home" partition using hte partition manager in kde will i lose data?
[03:30] <Snooffy> and can i change swap partition when is the system actually running?
[03:34] <Linkmaster> Snooffy: 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 use
[03:36] <Snooffy> Linkmaster: will do than.. as for gparted can it change the part size not to lose the data?
[03:37] <Linkmaster> If you are increasing it, you're fine, if you're shrinking it..I believe it notifies you when it cant' be shrunk anymore
[03:38] <Snooffy> and 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] <Snooffy> Linkmaster: cheers.
[03:38] <Linkmaster> I'm not exactly sure
[03:39] <Linkmaster> I don't usually mess with my partitions more then once, and when I do, I do a complete computer reinstall
[03:41] <Snooffy> Ok 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 it

[08:52] <bazhang> zake, kubuntu support question?
[09:03] <ashwin> how to to create a hidden file?
[09:04] <bazhang> ashwin, for what purpose
[09:04] <ashwin> to hide a script
[09:04] <kosmonaut> hi! everytime I start KDE, there is a dialog asking me to set up a mobile connection. I do not have a mobile
[09:05] <kosmonaut> I want to get rid of that message window, but I have no idea how to
[09:06] <ashwin> bazhang: like hidden files in home folder
[09:06] <bazhang> ashwin, why would you need to hide a script?
[09:07] <ashwin> bazhang: I just not want to see it in my home folder

[09:53] <tobago> habe vor 10 tagen krdc installiert und eine verbindung zum server desktop (ubuntu) aufbauen können (hat alles super geklappt). danach habe ich dort avahi (für macbooks) konfiguriert und nun kommt keine verbindung mit dem kubuntu client (krdc) mehr zustande.
[09:54] <tobago> die fehlermeldung lautet "Server nicht gefunden". kann es sein, dass avahi da was zerbröselt hat?

[11:14] <ct529> I am really upset by all this kworker cpu overload .... grrrr!
[11:58] <tgr_> I can't get networking working. I have a computer running kubuntu plugged into my router/modem, which seems to be working ok because I can connect to the internet. All of the other computers on the network are running MS Windows and are connected to the network by WiFi. The Windows machines can all see each other, but the Linux machine can't see anything and none of the Windows machines can see it. What do I do?
[13:20] <mediawork> hi
[13:20] <mediawork> shouldnt there be a /var/log/messages file on ubuntu?   if not what happened to it?
[13:20] <mediawork> and if yes >(
[13:38] <tsimpson> mediawork: yes, there should be
[13:40] <tsimpson> make sure syslogd (or rsyslogd) is running
[14:13] <yofel> tsimpson: IIRC we dropped messages and put everything into syslog now
[14:13] <yofel> mediawork: look in /var/log/syslog
[14:14] <tsimpson> well my syslogd has /var/log/{syslog,messages,daemon.log,kern.log,debug,auth.log,mail.log,mail.info}
[14:15] <yofel> hm, I have no messages file here, lemme check
[14:16] <tsimpson> I'm on LTS though, so...
[14:16] <yofel> oneiric here, and the only mention of messages in the config files is commented out
[14:38] <BluesKaj> Howdy
[15:44] <home> how do you remove the "recently used" tab in kubuntu kde 11.04 in the main menu?
[15:50] <Sweorc_Steppar> hola
[15:51] <home> how do you remove the "recently used" tab in kubuntu kde 11.04 in the main menu?
[15:56] <BluesKaj> home, you could use the classic menu style, but otherwise i have no idea
[16:01] <DarkriftX> Isnt there a special way to kill and restart dbus-daemon?  know killing it without restarting it at the same time is not fun at all
[16:04] <tsimpson> DarkriftX: "sudo restart dbus"
[16:04] <DarkriftX> oh, i thought just the dbus-daemon had to be restarted
[16:05] <tsimpson> that will restart the daemon
[16:12] <DarkriftX> wow, that worked but not nearly as smooth as whatever I did last time
[16:12] <DarkriftX> kde freaked the hell out for a few seconds
[16:12] <tsimpson> yah, it really doesn't like dbus going away
[16:13] <DarkriftX> windows jumped all over the place, minimized, maximized, errored out, all my icons in the tray went all 1998 on me
[16:13] <DarkriftX> but, my load is dropping from 6 (dualcore) to 1.3, so its better
[16:13] <DarkriftX> thanks

[17:05] <gigenieks> Hi all!
[17:06] <Graf_Westerholt> Hi, gigenieks.
[17:06] <gigenieks> Just 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 and
[17:07] <gigenieks> I'm going now install Kubuntu 11.04 64bit
[17:07] <gigenieks> i need to choose "install alongside" it will pick that "unallocated space" right?
[17:07] <gigenieks> not manually
[17:08] <Daskreech> gigenieks: \o/
[17:08] <Daskreech> Yes that should work
[17:08] <gigenieks> Meaning it wont suddenly think to divede my Windows 7 partion ..
[17:09] <gigenieks> instead take "unallocated space"
[17:09] <tsimpson> it shouldn't, but it will tell you what it's going to do before it actually does it
[17:09] <tsimpson> so just read carefully :)
[17:09] <gigenieks> ahh then good
[17:09] <gigenieks> will go install!
[17:09] <gigenieks> wish me luck :)
[17:10] <tsimpson> good lucK
[17:28] <DarkriftX> is there an easy way to hide a window that is also easy to unhide it?
[17:28] <DarkriftX> I want to leave something open that I dont want my kids to get into if they get on my computer
[17:32] <Graf_Westerholt> Dragnslcr, lock the PC.
[17:32] <Graf_Westerholt> sorr
[17:32] <Graf_Westerholt> DarkriftX
[17:32] <DarkriftX> I can lock it but others need to access it sometimes
[17:32] <Graf_Westerholt> That is no problem.
[17:32] <DarkriftX> I just need some stuff to stay open and they always close my stuff
[17:32] <DarkriftX> I know I can create them another profile, but thats too advanced for htem
[17:32] <tsimpson> you can have more than one user logged in at a time
[17:32] <Graf_Westerholt> You can lock you session and they can start their own session.
[17:33] <DarkriftX> if I can just hide one window so it doesnt show on taskbar or as a window, that would be great
[17:33] <DarkriftX> or even if it showed on a different desktop only
[17:33] <Graf_Westerholt> That is possible, DarkriftX.
[17:33] <Graf_Westerholt> You can set that in the Window-Options.
[17:34] <DarkriftX> I 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] <DarkriftX> they open chrome, browse the internet opening 10 more windows, then close them all. and the one I have left open gets closed
[17:34] <DarkriftX> it annoys the hell out of me
[17:34] <tsimpson> put it on another "desktop"
[17:35] <DarkriftX> I will try that, my taskbar currently shows all desktops windows so I will have to check the settings
[17:35] <Graf_Westerholt> DarkriftX, press Alt+F3, go to „Advanced → Special Window settings“.
[17:35] <Graf_Westerholt> On „Preferences“ select „skip taskbar: force“.
[17:36] <Graf_Westerholt> That's it.
[17:36] <DarkriftX> oooh, I was able to change taskbar to show only current desktop and move it to desktop 2
[17:36] <DarkriftX> not sure why I only thought of that when I asked
[17:37] <Graf_Westerholt> DarkriftX :)
[17:43] <Daskreech> DarkriftX: Throw it into an activity and turn off the activity
[17:44] <Daskreech> 4 solutions to one problem ^_^
[17:44] <DarkriftX> lol
[17:45] <DarkriftX> I just figured there might be a cli method to do it, but hte one I tried works
[17:50] <Sweorc_Steppar> hi there.
[17:50] <Daskreech> ha ha you were specficially looking for a CLI way to do it?
[17:50] <Daskreech> there are two
[17:51] <Daskreech> hi
[17:54] <Sweorc_Steppar> hate to interrupt; when you have a second i have a quick question
[17:56] <Graf_Westerholt> !ask Sweorc_Steppar
[17:56] <home_> no other networks stored in this Quassel IRC
[17:56] <Graf_Westerholt> !ask | Sweorc_Steppar
[17:56] <home_> and this network is just for linux. not good for chat
[17:56] <Sweorc_Steppar> sorry.
[17:57] <Sweorc_Steppar> having trouble locating and running ark
[17:57] <Daskreech> Sweorc_Steppar: alt+f2 -
[17:57] <Daskreech> type ark
[17:58] <Daskreech> home_: Add a new network?
[17:58] <Daskreech> home_: or join #offtopic
[17:58] <home_> ok
[18:04] <Daskreech> Sweorc_Steppar: did that work?
[18:07] <Sweorc_Steppar> well
[18:07] <Sweorc_Steppar> it brought up ark but shortly thereafter bugged out.
[18:07] <Sweorc_Steppar> i'll play with it and see what i can do
[18:07] <Sweorc_Steppar> thank you
[18:14] <Daskreech> Sweorc_Steppar: bugged out is crashed? Or isn't doing what you expect?
[18:15] <Sweorc_Steppar> crashed yes
[18:15] <Sweorc_Steppar> but its on an old laptop and i may have unknowingly done something.  not sure.
[18:19] <Daskreech> Sweorc_Steppar: well try opening konsole and then type ark
[18:19] <Daskreech> If it crashes it will tell you why. You can pastebin it here if you can't understand it
[18:19] <Sweorc_Steppar> i've already closed it out.  i'll try again later.
[18:19] <Sweorc_Steppar> thank you though
[18:25] <gigenieks> hi
[18:26] <gigenieks> Anybody here?
[18:26] <Graf_Westerholt> !ask | gigenieks
[18:27] <bobweaver> anyone know alot about kde menu and how to keep it the way that I want to after making a live dvd of my kubuntu
[18:27] <gigenieks> OK I just checking, dont know this IRC thing... I am in Live CD going to install, but need some clarification...
[18:27] <gigenieks> Joined with Quassel client
[18:27] <gigenieks> here is my problem:
[18:27] <Daskreech> gigenieks: Cool
[18:27] <gigenieks> http://kubuntuforums.net/forums/index.php?topic=3117730.0
[18:28] <gigenieks> explained as good as I could
[18:28] <gigenieks> Can someone check that link and answer me? :)
[18:28] <Daskreech> You did well
[18:28] <gigenieks> you mean post?
[18:28] <Daskreech> you have space allocated and would like to know how to proceed
[18:28] <Daskreech>  have you ever used Linux before?
[18:28] <gigenieks> I would upload images too (1 image = 1000 words ) but dont know "mount thing" yet
[18:29] <gigenieks> I used Ubuntu a lil few years ago
[18:29] <bobweaver> just use guided with multi os
[18:29] <bobweaver> gigenieks: just use guided with multi os
[18:30] <gigenieks> What you mean? I'm confused
[18:30] <Daskreech> gigenieks: You can use Guided or Manual either will work. Which would you like to use
[18:30] <bobweaver> are there three options
[18:30] <Daskreech> gigenieks: If you choose guided it will have an option to use empty space
[18:30] <gigenieks> There is no guides there is only 2 options:
[18:30] <bobweaver> weired
[18:30] <gigenieks> see my post
[18:30] <gigenieks> nstead I have 2 choices:
[18:30] <gigenieks> Guided - use entire disk
[18:30] <gigenieks> Manual
[18:31] <gigenieks> I understand that I have to choose
[18:31] <gigenieks> "Manual"
[18:31] <gigenieks> BUT
[18:31] <bobweaver> try and re-install ubiquity and up date to see if that helps
[18:31] <gigenieks> which partion type should I use "primary" or "logical"
[18:31] <bobweaver> sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install ubiquity
[18:31] <gigenieks> ?
[18:31] <Daskreech> bobweaver: It's a live CD :)
[18:31] <Daskreech> gigenieks: what happens when you click on Guided ?
[18:31] <bobweaver> ubiquity is the installer
[18:32] <bobweaver> it dont matter that it is live
[18:32] <bobweaver> as long as you have internet connection
[18:32] <gigenieks> It shows graphically that entire hard disk would be for Kubuntu (which I dont want)
[18:32] <gigenieks> I need dual-boot
[18:32] <Daskreech> I know just saying it's a pretty big fail if the live CD doesn't ship with a proper way to install :)
[18:32] <bobweaver> if there is only two options then ubiquity is messed up
[18:32] <gigenieks> thats why I have to go for "Manual"
[18:32] <Daskreech> gigenieks: ok let's do Manual then
[18:32] <gigenieks> yeah
[18:33] <gigenieks> but as In that post
[18:33] <Daskreech> Click on the empty space and make a logical partition
[18:33] <Daskreech> how much RAM do you have?
[18:33] <gigenieks> 1gb
[18:33] <gigenieks> I understand I need divede "unallocated space"
[18:33] <gigenieks> in / partion (kubuntu)
[18:33] <Daskreech> ok and you put aside 30+ GB?
[18:33] <gigenieks> and swap partion
[18:34] <gigenieks> yes
[18:34] <gigenieks> I shrinked Win7 partion
[18:34] <gigenieks> 37gb
[18:34] <gigenieks> just confused about choosing
[18:34] <gigenieks> primary or logical
[18:34] <bobweaver> make your kubuntu partition the root one
[18:35] <Daskreech> gigenieks: I can explain if you like but it's not that interesting
[18:35] <bobweaver> so it knows where to boot right ?
[18:35] <gigenieks> when I tried to do "manual"
[18:35] <gigenieks> i have option called:
[18:35] <gigenieks>  Location for the new partion:
[18:35] <gigenieks> should I left it as it is
[18:35] <gigenieks> in beginning
[18:35] <gigenieks> wouldnt it mess up my Windows?
[18:35] <gigenieks> bootloader
[18:35] <gigenieks> or something
[18:35] <Daskreech> gigenieks: No
[18:36] <bobweaver> I hate to cut you all of again but -did you check the md5sum of the cd
[18:36] <Daskreech> For the partition the beginning is where the Windows one ends
[18:36] <bobweaver> or usb sorry
[18:36] <bobweaver> file
[18:36] <bobweaver> kubuntu md5sum
[18:36] <Daskreech>  For the bootloader Linux Will overwrite Windows' bootloader but will add a menu entry so you can just select it at start up
[18:36] <gigenieks> bobweaver, yes I did (everything is FINE with Live CD!)
[18:36] <bobweaver> cool
[18:36] <gigenieks> just dont want mess someting
[18:37] <Daskreech> gigenieks: It's all fixable :)
[18:37] <bobweaver> weired that ubqiuty is acting like that
[18:37] <gigenieks> So I make both partions as "logical" (no need for primary?)
[18:37] <olovi42> hellow, anybody for helping me?
[18:37] <Unit193> Swap size is normally the same as RAM size
[18:37] <bobweaver> olovi42: whats up
[18:38] <gigenieks> left "location for the new partion"
[18:38] <gigenieks> as it is beginning (in both / and swap)?
[18:38] <Daskreech> gigenieks: Right
[18:38] <gigenieks> and lastly what about
[18:38] <olovi42> well, I'm chilean new user for ubuntu and i need certain hel
[18:38] <gigenieks> Bootloader
[18:38] <gigenieks> i can set on dev/sda
[18:38] <Daskreech> olovi42: No idea. Do you need a backrub? A hot meal?
[18:38] <gigenieks> and dev/sda1
[18:38] <bobweaver> olovi42: tell us what is going on please
[18:38] <Daskreech> gigenieks: sda works
[18:39] <gigenieks> As i understand sad would work
[18:39] <gigenieks> and dual-boot would work
[18:39] <gigenieks> at least it should work
[18:39] <Daskreech> gigenieks: Correct
[18:40] <gigenieks> ok will go try, anyway I have Win7 USB repair if something happens to Windows...
[18:40] <gigenieks> :)
[18:40] <olovi42> well, i need a help for using "compiz" that no function in my ubuntu 10.10...
[18:40] <bobweaver> olovi42: ubuntu or kubuntu
[18:40] <gigenieks> ahh, and swap I should set exactly "1024MB" right?
[18:40] <olovi42> ubuntu
[18:40] <bobweaver> ok what do you want it to do
[18:40] <bobweaver> 3d desktop
[18:41] <bobweaver> fire on screen
[18:41] <bobweaver> water drops
[18:41] <Unit193> gigenieks: That's how it normally works
[18:41] <bobweaver> first open your terminal and type in
[18:41] <bobweaver> olovi42: lspci | grep VGA
[18:41] <bobweaver> and use paste.ubuntu.com
[18:42] <bobweaver> lets make sure that your video card can handel it
[18:42] <gigenieks> wish me luck
[18:42] <gigenieks> bye for now
[18:42] <olovi42> ok, ok, be calm i do that, please sorry i am a chilean...
[18:42] <gigenieks> :)
[18:42] <bobweaver> it is all good take your time

[19:43] <home_> where history of webpages are stored in kubuntu ?
[19:44] <olovi42> no I said hwere are you from...
[19:44] <olovi42> where
[19:44] <home_> europe
[19:44] <olovi42> but what country in europe
[19:44] <olovi42> it's many...
[19:44] <bobweaver> the states
[19:45] <home_> are nigerian scum ?
[19:45] <yofel> !language
[19:46] <olovi42> I'm sorry please...
[19:46] <home_> 253 users here. That means that only 253 users use kubuntu ? the rest just know how to use it and have no questions and are genuises ?
[19:47] <bobweaver> olovi42: http://img16.imageshack.us/img16/1786/snapshot1ok.png
[19:47] <bobweaver> make sure it looks like this
[19:48] <Graf_Westerholt> No, home_. The others only do not know this chan. ;)
[19:48] <yofel> home_: not all 253 are looking at this chan right now, there are far more kubuntu users in the world, and which browser are you using?
[19:48] <olovi42> ok I will go thank you very much for all your comments, bye bye.
[19:48] <home_> yofel:  I am using firefox
[19:49] <yofel> then look in the firefox history for the history fo webpages. The browser configuration itself it kept in ~/.mozilla/<profile>/
[19:49] <yofel> er, ~/.mozilla/firefox/<profile>/
[19:49] <home_> so there is not history or stored web pages in kubuntu like windows ?
[19:50] <yofel> what's the windows way to store them again?
[19:58] <olovi42> I do all you sayed me but I need to reboot, will you wait me?
[19:59] <[Lazydog]> hello, i a=m having an issue with screen resolution under kubuntu on a vm.  it will not display over 1024x768 when others do 1028x1024.  how can i fix this issue?
[20:03] <home_> I am having an issue with lifecam camera cinema and linux kubuntu 11.04. I get the video right but no audio at all.
[20:03] <home_> I mean no microphnoe capability at all.
[20:06] <home_> Any good internet downloaders that accelerate your internet speed?
[20:06] <home_> like internet download manager for windows
[20:07] <yofel> there's kget from a KDE point of view
[20:07] <home_> should I use rekonq as better than firefox ?
[20:07] <home_> yofel:  does it integrate with firefox?
[20:08] <yofel> not really, for firefox I use the downthemall! add-on
[20:10] <home_> for firefox there is another one called fire download
[20:14] <home_> something for rapidshare storing vip password and downloading multiple files at once ?
[20:20] <home_> is there any book to learn the commands in ternimal ?
[20:21] <yofel> !cli
[20:21] <yofel> would be one starting point
[20:22] <yofel> usually every command has a manpage 'man <command>' or prints some help with -h or --help
[20:22] <home_> yofel: do you use the terminal ?
[20:22] <yofel> a lot
[20:23] <home_> are you turkish ?
[20:23] <yofel> nope, german
[20:24] <home_> who is turkish originally?
[20:26] <Graf_Westerholt> !tr | home_
[20:26] <home_> I am not turkish
[20:26] <home_> I am christian
[20:27] <home_> yofel: have you finished something in the computers ans software environment ?
[20:27] <Graf_Westerholt> Sorry, home_. You asked for turkish.
[20:28] <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 G210
[20:29] <home_> lol
[20:29] <home_> and my lifecam is not supported.
[20:31] <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 to
[20:31] <home_> Linux don't dissapoint us.
[20:33] <Oxymoron>   home_: hha :D
[20:34] <home_> we have 2011 , come on linux people make it work.
[20:35] <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_Westerholt> Maybe you can fix it and make it work, home_.
[20:36] <home_> I cannot fix it on my own
[20:38] <Oer> some hardware just doesn't work, wich lifecam do you have ?
[20:38] <home_> Oer:  lifecam cinema
[20:39] <Oer> and your mic does not work, did you check alsamixer ?
[20:40] <Oer> terminal> alsamixer
[20:40] <Oer> and press F4 Capture
[20:40] <Oer> and maybe F6 for different soundcard drive
[20:40] <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't
[20:41] <home_> so it's removed now
[20:42] <Oer> so you have no music at all ?
[20:42] <home_> apparently the sound of my system works just fine
[20:42] <home_> I can listen to songs etc.
[20:42] <Oxymoron> home_: 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 speakers
[20:43] <home_> Oxymoron:  these companies work for Bill Gates
[20:44] <Oxymoron> home_: 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] <Oer> pls stay ontopic
[20:44] <home_> why do you think Bill gates bought skype ?
[20:44] <home_> ok I will stay on topic
[20:44] <Oer> re-install alsa will do
[20:44] <Oxymoron> In 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.
[20:48] <home_> is it the alsamixer gui I have to download again?
[20:48] <home_> or the alsamixer for gnome ?
[20:48] <Oxymoron> But 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 task
[20:49] <home_> try to use youtube and you may find you are the only one in this planet trying to find it out
[20:49] <Oxymoron> I cannot found  any drivers or nvidias website for G210M x64 system, and I tried proprietary drivers, do not work either.
[20:50] <Oxymoron> Even if video would work, it seems audio will be my next problem.
[20:51] <Oxymoron> I have googled and I do not find anything useful, not even on forums.
[20:53] <home_> these problems should be ok until 2045
[20:53] <home_> you may want to try linux at that time in the future
[20:54] <Oxymoron> Windows have no problem find the EDID output directly, and that before it even have logged in to the desktop ...
[21:01] <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 windows
[21:01] <home_> now I am sure I am clean
[21:02] <BluesKaj> home_,good move
[21:02] <home_> thanks
[21:03] <BluesKaj> home_, is this your first experience with linux ?
[21:03] <home_> BluesKaj:  yes it is
[21:04] <home_> I find it convenient for the way I use it.
[21:04] <BluesKaj> home_, well if you have any questions , fire away
[21:04] <home_> and all this free software that come readily with the kpackagekit
[21:04] <home_> I had some unsolved questions but it's ok
[21:05] <home_> I urge my friends to start using linux after my interaction with it.
[21:05] <home_> but they are afraid.
[21:09] <BluesKaj> home_, yes , there's a bit of configuring involved for wifi and audio on laptops , but mostly everything works right from the start.
[21:13] <home_> If I ever had a laptop I would use ubuntu inside
[21:13] <home_> unfortunately I pay for the pre-installed windows.
[21:13] <home_> I guess I won't be able to find customised from scratch
[21:42] <home_> any flash downloader that uses my max connection ?
[21:42] <home_> not just a flash downloader without the speedy capability
[21:43] <home_> I have 2mb per sec and with that linux thing it's going 102kb/sec
[21:43] <BluesKaj> home_, are you on ubuntu or kubuntu?
[21:43] <home_> kubuntu
[21:43] <stevethepirate_> Does anyone know where the scripts are for horos?
[21:43] <stevethepirate_> in kde4?
[21:44] <stevethepirate_> ?
[21:45] <stevethepirate_> ?
[21:45] <stevethepirate_> ?
[21:45] <FloodBotK1> stevethepirate_: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[21:45] <BluesKaj> open the kpackagekit and install ,  kubuntu-restricted-extras. It has the flash and java and media codecs required for most webmedia content and audio and video codecs
[21:45] <stevethepirate_> BluesKaj: who you talkin to foo? :D
[21:46] <home_> lol
[21:46] <stevethepirate_> Does anyone know where the scripts are for horos?
[21:49] <BluesKaj> stevethepirate_, for wall paper or splash
[21:49] <stevethepirate_> both
[21:49] <stevethepirate_> BluesKaj: both
[21:50] <stevethepirate_> BluesKaj: I would like the scripts only
[21:50] <BluesKaj> stevethepirate_, sorry , no idea
[21:56] <home_> I managed to make LIfecam Cinema work with kubuntu YES
[21:56] <home_> microphone and video together.
[21:57] <sorush20> hi, I';m unable to change permissions on my mounted ide drive 300gb samba shared to a mac. book pro.. I use chmod 777 -R /media/drive and chown user:group /media/drive but I still when I go into dolphin I can't see the settings being applied..
[21:59] <home_> I guess that Kubuntu is more heavy than ubuntu11.04
[22:03] <BluesKaj> home_,  it depends on your number of applications
[22:04] <home_> I guess older laptop have no chance to have kubuntu11.04
[22:05] <BluesKaj> how old , home_ ?
[22:05] <home_> 2004
[22:07] <BluesKaj> if there's sufficient memory and hdd space , kubuntu can run well, 1G RAM will suffice, it won't be fast with several apps open at once , but useable
[22:08] <home_> 1GB ram I have now
[22:08] <home_> maybe I better make it 2GB it may go faster
[22:08] <home_> it's a 2002 original IMB netvista.
[22:08] <home_> IBM*
[22:10] <BluesKaj> HDD ?
[22:10] <home_> 40GB
[22:11] <home_> I bought it 70 dollars and it's used. For office use only
[22:11] <home_> with Windows 7 it goes fast. it's partitioned. With Kubuntu I face some laginess
[22:12] <BluesKaj> home_, make sure you run the updates in the package manager or terminal
[22:13] <home_> it's fully updated
[22:13] <BluesKaj> periodically as well
[22:14] <home_> everyday I check for updates
[22:14] <home_> BluesKaj:  what is the command for updating the system through the terminal ?
[22:16] <BluesKaj> sudo apt-get update , then once you that , sudo apt-get upgrade , or you can run them sequentailly with one command . sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
[22:16] <BluesKaj> do
[22:16] <home_> thanks
[22:17] <home_> E: Malformed line 59 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list (dist parse)
[22:17] <home_> E: The list of sources could not be read.
[22:22] <BluesKaj> home_, alt+f2 , copy and paste : kdesudo kate /etc/apt/sources.list , the line will be shown at the bottom of the page as you scroll down , find line 59 and place a # in front , to stop apt from reading it ...copy and paste the line here , so we can look at it.
[22:27] <home_> couldn't find it
[22:27] <home_> that nothing. I am bit tired. thanks
[22:36] <solomonic_> hmm
[22:40] <home_> hi again
[22:40] <home_> I can't set another wallpaper that I want
[23:09] <gigenieks> hi
[23:10] <gigenieks> all
[23:10] <Daskreech> Hi
[23:10] <Daskreech> worked?
[23:11] <gigenieks> Yes, but something went wrong with Windows... It seems that I need to do
[23:11] <gigenieks> CHKDSK /R /F
[23:12] <gigenieks> Kubuntu installed (writing from it) GRUB too, just cant boot in Windows :(
[23:12] <gigenieks> I am a lil angry because
[23:13] <gigenieks> I was writing post in kubuntu forums
[23:13] <gigenieks> but all time i spent writing and editing is lost
[23:13] <gigenieks> because Kubuntu default browser crahsed 3x :@
[23:13] <gigenieks> I though i saved my post in text file, but when I opened it
[23:13] <gigenieks> it was empty
[23:14] <gigenieks> grr... 1h wasted :(
[23:14] <Daskreech> gigenieks: what is Windows doing?
[23:14] <gigenieks> I will explain later more clearly in kubuntu forums
[23:14] <gigenieks> now I wan to just relax (chat) hehe
[23:15] <Daskreech> ok :)
[23:17] <gigenieks> Daskreech, are you only one online?
[23:17] <Daskreech> Yes My evil plan is fulfilled
[23:17] <Daskreech>  I'm dispatching my troops now to investigate how you got on the net
[23:18] <gigenieks> lol :D
[23:18] <gigenieks> btw, in IRC there is no smileys or emotions, right? Just pure text?
[23:18] <Daskreech> umm
[23:18] <Daskreech> emoticons are just text
[23:19] <Daskreech> ignore the use of icons in the name ^_^
[23:19] <gigenieks> sorry, did not understand your last sentence
[23:22] <Daskreech> icons are images
[23:22] <Daskreech>  emoticons should be images of emotions
[23:22] <Daskreech> but they are jsut text
[23:22] <Daskreech> soooo bad name?
[23:22] <Daskreech> Like Windows?
[23:22] <FloodBotK1> Daskreech: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[23:22] <Daskreech> Easiest thing in your structure that can break?
[23:23] <gigenieks> How long are you using Kubuntu?
[23:24] <Daskreech> since 6.10
[23:24] <gigenieks> Have you tried Xubuntu?
[23:25] <Daskreech> not recently
[23:25] <gigenieks> this is my fathers PC
[23:25] <Daskreech> ok
[23:25] <gigenieks> mine is older
[23:25] <gigenieks> will use Xubuntu
[23:25] <gigenieks> lighter desktop interface
[23:28] <gigenieks> Daskreech, how long it was when everything worked as you wanted?
[23:30] <Daskreech> gigenieks: Umm most things work as I want them
[23:30] <gigenieks> for example: now I have trouble with Kubuntu web browser (it crashes quite often), dont know anything about plugins (to get mp3 etc) playin, installing ....
[23:30] <Daskreech> The stuff I want broken is broken
[23:30] <Daskreech> gigenieks: install kubuntu-restricted-extras
[23:30] <Daskreech> Will install all your mp3 stuff etc
[23:31] <gigenieks> btw do you do programming or something like that on Linux?
[23:31] <gigenieks> for school or work
[23:45] <phani> Hi.. I am using Lucid 10.4 and I moved a couple of menus around and then hit SAVE. A dialog box appears, with the title "Updating System Configuration". any ideas on how to fix it ?
[23:47] <gigenieks> this all is so new!
[23:54] <Daskreech> gigenieks: :)
[23:54] <Daskreech> I do programming for linux
[23:55] <Daskreech> phani: That should be ok
[23:55] <phani> Daskreech: thank you but is there a way that we can find why its keep on doing in loop ? i saw few threads but didn't find any update
[23:56] <gigenieks> Im going to study IT.. and I already found alternatives for programs that I will need in Windows
[23:56] <Daskreech> phani: oh that's not supposed to happen >_>
[23:56] <gigenieks> Free Pascal; Lazarus; Saga
[23:56] <Daskreech> pascal
[23:56] <Daskreech> wow
[23:57] <gigenieks> ?
