| SIR_Taco | g'day Unit | 01:20 |
| TroN-0074 | are you all using Quassel ? | 01:29 |
| TroN-0074 | that is the worst IRC client I have ever tried | 01:30 |
| TroN-0074 | super slow | 01:30 |
| SIR_Taco | TroN-0074: good for you, what would you rather use? | 01:30 |
| TroN-0074 | it should it be called Slowssel | 01:30 |
| TroN-0074 | I could use the plain mIRC client | 01:31 |
| TroN-0074 | with nothing on it | 01:31 |
| SIR_Taco | TroN-0074: then go for it | 01:31 |
| TroN-0074 | thanks | 01:31 |
| TroN-0074 | I coulnt make it work in kubuntu though | 01:32 |
| TroN-0074 | or in linux all together | 01:32 |
| SIR_Taco | TroN-0074: here's a list of the most common: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetRelayChat | 01:33 |
| TroN-0074 | thanks that is great | 01:33 |
| SIR_Taco | np | 01:34 |
| TroN-0074 | I am trying to join this server in quassel lug.mtu.edu but when I type /server irc.lug.mtu.edu quassel does nothing | 01:37 |
| TroN-0074 | do you know what am I typing wrong? | 01:37 |
| jordan_ | ive been updating for some time im hung at 60 % its the printer-applet | 01:40 |
| jordan_ | its prepairing | 01:40 |
| TroN-0074 | hey what is the text editor tool installed in kubuntu do you know? | 01:41 |
| jordan_ | im not for sure | 01:42 |
| jordan_ | i maybe kate | 01:42 |
| TroN-0074 | o.k | 01:42 |
| jordan_ | tron, there maybe two installed by default | 01:43 |
| jordan_ | im not for sure | 01:43 |
| TroN-0074 | I tried gedit and it is not there it says | 01:43 |
| TroN-0074 | thanks | 01:43 |
| SIR_Taco | TroN-0074: Kate for in KDE, nano usually for CLI.... you should be able to change servers in Quassel under File->Networks | 01:43 |
| SIR_Taco | jordan_: what version of Kubuntu are you running? | 01:44 |
| TroN-0074 | thank you sir taco | 01:44 |
| jordan_ | also tron sudo apt-get install gedit | 01:44 |
| jordan_ | sir, 11.10 | 01:44 |
| jordan_ | omg i have no idea | 01:45 |
| * mendred has gone fishing: Gone away for now | 01:45 | |
| SIR_Taco | jordan_: ok, and you can't access your pritner config from the system settings? | 01:45 |
| jordan_ | ill see | 01:46 |
| jordan_ | yes i can | 01:46 |
| SIR_Taco | ok... so whats the problem? | 01:46 |
| jordan_ | well when im updating | 01:46 |
| jordan_ | its hanging on printer-applet | 01:47 |
| jordan_ | dont know why | 01:47 |
| SIR_Taco | ok, and how are you updating? | 01:47 |
| jordan_ | through kmanager | 01:47 |
| jordan_ | when lpacketkit | 01:48 |
| jordan_ | kpacketkit* | 01:48 |
| jordan_ | well* | 01:48 |
| jordan_ | ive been working all day | 01:48 |
| SIR_Taco | jordan_: ok... what if you open konsole (alt-F2 and type konsole) and then type "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" | 01:49 |
| jordan_ | im refreashing software list now | 01:49 |
| SIR_Taco | often if you're running alpha/beta/pre-releases, it's best to update through the command-line... often you'll see what went wrong. | 01:50 |
| jordan_ | i dont know what i have | 01:50 |
| jordan_ | im know im not on a beta | 01:50 |
| jordan_ | i dont feel like compiling programs | 01:51 |
| jordan_ | i just like a os that runs | 01:51 |
| SIR_Taco | 11.10 is the latest alpha/testing release... it will change more than your socks :) | 01:51 |
| jordan_ | i probably have 11.00 | 01:51 |
| jordan_ | or what every it is | 01:51 |
| SIR_Taco | 11.04 is the latest stable, might want to try that | 01:51 |
| jordan_ | i havnt when on kubuntu awhile | 01:52 |
| jordan_ | mainly windows | 01:52 |
| SIR_Taco | in konsole you can type "uname -a" and it should tell you what version you are running | 01:52 |
| jordan_ | forgot the commad | 01:52 |
| jordan_ | im sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade now | 01:53 |
| SIR_Taco | ok | 01:53 |
| SIR_Taco | that should get you up to date with whatever version you're on anyway | 01:53 |
| jordan_ | i know im now on a beta | 01:54 |
| jordan_ | i have the cd somewhere written down on it | 01:54 |
| jordan_ | im on my bed now | 01:55 |
| jordan_ | not my computer deakj | 01:55 |
| jordan_ | desk* | 01:55 |
| SIR_Taco | haha ok | 01:55 |
| jordan_ | 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded. | 01:55 |
| jordan_ | sounds good | 01:55 |
| SIR_Taco | yes, sounds good... what does "uname -a" report? | 01:55 |
| jordan_ | i was just wondering if anyone else was hanging | 01:55 |
| SIR_Taco | I'm on 11.10, and no hang | 01:56 |
| jordan_ | Linux Compaq-Presario-CQ60 2.6.38-10-generic #46-Ubuntu SMP Tue Jun 28 15:05:41 UTC 2011 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux | 01:56 |
| lsv | is it normal if iwconfig shows wifi0 and wlan0 but I only have one wireless card? | 01:56 |
| SIR_Taco | you're not running 11.10, or you'd have a 3.0.0.X kernel... | 01:57 |
| jordan_ | sir, also deb packages are installing with no problems | 01:57 |
| jordan_ | i know im not on a beta | 01:57 |
| SIR_Taco | lsv: depends on the card.... | 01:57 |
| lsv | SIR_Taco: I got an old card, my computer knows about the card, but can't use it (if that makes sense). | 01:59 |
| SIR_Taco | jordan_: ok, but it's hanging on a printer config? have you tried "sudo dpkg --configure -a" ? | 01:59 |
| SIR_Taco | lsv: which card? | 02:00 |
| jordan_ | nope | 02:00 |
| SIR_Taco | jordan_: well try haha | 02:00 |
| jordan_ | thanks for your help | 02:01 |
| lsv | SIR_Taco: Intersil Corporation Prism 2.5 Wavelan chipset (rev 01) | 02:01 |
| SIR_Taco | hope it helped | 02:01 |
| lsv | SIR_Taco: I found this link about the card http://www.dlink.com/products/?tab=3&pid=DWL-520&rev=DWL-520 | 02:02 |
| SIR_Taco | ah yes, same card I had... it's a pain in the butt | 02:02 |
| lsv | SIR_Taco: is there hope? | 02:03 |
| SIR_Taco | oh yes, you can get it to work no problem... just let me find the site | 02:03 |
| lsv | SIR_Taco: ok, thanks | 02:04 |
| SIR_Taco | lsv: it's a wait/or pay site... but the download is legit : http://www.icewalkers.com/Linux/Software/528690/MadWifi.html | 02:07 |
| SIR_Taco | if you need help installing it I'll be glad to help, I've fought with that one for years lol | 02:08 |
| lsv | SIR_Taco: ok, thanks a bunch | 02:08 |
| lsv | SIR_Taco: I just downloaded and extracted the files to a directory in my Desktop. Could you guide me through the rest (I'm new at this stuff). | 02:14 |
| SIR_Taco | lsv: yep | 02:16 |
| lsv | thanks SIR_Taco | 02:16 |
| SIR_Taco | lsv: go to the direcotry via konsole | 02:16 |
| lsv | done | 02:17 |
| SIR_Taco | ok so you should be able to type: "make && sudo make install" | 02:17 |
| lsv | I got an error.. | 02:19 |
| SIR_Taco | lsv: what error? | 02:19 |
| lsv | ./kernelversion.c:13:30: fatal error: linux/utsrelease.h: No such file or directory compilation terminated. | 02:20 |
| SIR_Taco | ok... maybe that was an older release | 02:20 |
| lsv | and this "Makefile.inc:81: *** Cannot detect kernel version - please check compiler and KERNELPATH. Stop." | 02:21 |
| === skreech_ is now known as Daskreech | ||
| Daskreech | hi SIR_Taco | 02:24 |
| Daskreech | how are you? | 02:24 |
| SIR_Taco | lsv: are you running 64-bit? | 02:26 |
| SIR_Taco | Daskreech: good thanks, and you? | 02:26 |
| lsv | I'm pretty sure the computer is 32-bit. | 02:27 |
| Daskreech | SIR_Taco: Not too bad | 02:27 |
| SIR_Taco | lsv: try "sudo apt-get install build-essentials" then try your "make && sudo make install | 02:29 |
| JuJuBee_ | How can I share via exports a partition that is ntfs formatted? | 02:29 |
| szal | SIR_Taco: build-essential, without the s | 02:30 |
| SIR_Taco | yes | 02:31 |
| lsv | SIR_Taco: the computer with the problem does not have internet access, but dpkg-query -l *build* says I have that package installed | 02:31 |
| SIR_Taco | ok | 02:31 |
| SIR_Taco | the problem is that ath5k and ath9k screw up older Atheros based cards..... I've had this argument many times.... It's a pain to find the currecnt driver because it's "technically" depreciated..... but I will find it haha | 02:34 |
| lsv | :O thanks :D | 02:35 |
| Daskreech | I keep wondering if they should symlink build-essentials to build-essential | 02:36 |
| SIR_Taco | lsv: how about http://snapshots.madwifi-project.org/madwifi-0.9.4/madwifi-0.9.4-r4149-20110707.tar.gz | 02:39 |
| SIR_Taco | that's the latest | 02:39 |
| lsv | SIR_Taco: ok just a sec | 02:40 |
| lsv | it looks like everything went ok, no errors (just a few warnings) | 02:47 |
| SIR_Taco | warnings are usually ok | 02:47 |
| lsv | what should I do next? | 02:47 |
| SIR_Taco | you should be able to do "sudo modprobe ath_pci" | 02:47 |
| lsv | done | 02:48 |
| lsv | sudo lshw -C network shows that the card is still disabled and is using the hostap driver | 02:50 |
| SIR_Taco | a restart is likely required and yoy might want to blacklist the 5k and 9k drivers | 02:53 |
| lsv | just add blacklist 5k and blacklist 9k on the /something file | 02:54 |
| lsv | in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf file | 02:57 |
| SIR_Taco | yes, there is likely one that is called "blacklist-ath_pci.conf" and you can add a # to the line that says "blacklist ath_pci" | 02:59 |
| lsv | SIR_Taco: ok thanks. I was wondering about that blacklist-ath_pci.conf file. | 03:00 |
| SIR_Taco | the old driver breaks the newer cards... and the newer driver breaks the older cards... they didn't seem to find a solution to that | 03:00 |
| lsv | computer is booting up | 03:02 |
| SIR_Taco | ok | 03:03 |
| lsv | I still can't connect :( | 03:05 |
| lsv | SIR_Taco: sudo lshw -C network still shows the card as disabled and using the hostap driver | 03:06 |
| SIR_Taco | this is an actual install or a VM? | 03:08 |
| lsv | actual install | 03:08 |
| SIR_Taco | and "sudo modprobe ath_pci" does nothing? | 03:09 |
| lsv | sudo modprobe ath_pci loaded ath_pci, wlan, ath_hal | 03:11 |
| SIR_Taco | lsv: that's good... it loaded the right drivers... | 03:13 |
| lsv | http://pastebin.com/CHQxAFu0 <- output form sudo lshw -C network, lsmod, and lspci | grep -i net | 03:15 |
| lsv | SIR_Taco: if you want any other output, just ask. | 03:16 |
| SIR_Taco | still cant connect? | 03:16 |
| lsv | no | 03:17 |
| SIR_Taco | the card is likely called ath0 | 03:17 |
| SIR_Taco | not wifi0 or eth0, if that helps | 03:18 |
| lsv | should I try sudo ip link set ath0 up? | 03:19 |
| lsv | or should I try removing the hostap drivers? | 03:20 |
| SIR_Taco | should be able to "sudo dhclient ath0" or if you have a complicated config, you can set i9t up with network manager, or the command line | 03:26 |
| lsv | ok let me check | 03:28 |
| lsv | sudo dhclient ath0 gave me an error saying: SIOCSIFADDR: No such device | 03:31 |
| joehuscky | hi emma | 03:31 |
| lsv | ath0: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device | 03:32 |
| SIR_Taco | lsv: and you're restarted since? | 03:32 |
| lsv | yes | 03:33 |
| SIR_Taco | you're typing from the computer? or it's another computer? | 03:34 |
| lsv | I don't know if this helps but when I removed the hostap_pci driver, iwconfig didn't find any wireless card | 03:34 |
| lsv | another computer | 03:34 |
| lsv | I'm on my laptop and the computer with the problems is a desktop | 03:35 |
| SIR_Taco | and the ath5k and ath9k drivers are blacklisted? | 03:35 |
| lsv | there was a typo in the blacklist, correction has been made. should I reboot? | 03:37 |
| SIR_Taco | I would, yes | 03:38 |
| lsv | ok, rebooting... | 03:39 |
| === zz_Kalidarn is now known as Kalidarn | ||
| lsv | SIR_Taco: rebooted, and I did a sudo dhclient ath0, got the same error. | 03:41 |
| SIR_Taco | but you should have some sort of network secruity... WEP/WAP etc. | 03:42 |
| lsv | yes | 03:42 |
| lsv | WPA/WPA2 | 03:43 |
| SIR_Taco | and you set that up? | 03:46 |
| lsv | the security thing? yes | 03:46 |
| SIR_Taco | and it will not connect? | 03:47 |
| lsv | no | 03:47 |
| lsv | the card should be using the driver that was compiled right? | 03:47 |
| SIR_Taco | yes... you should be able to type in the konsole "lsmod | grep ath_pci" and get a result | 03:49 |
| lsv | I had to modprobe ath_pci first to get a result form lsmod | grep ath_pci. lspci -vv says: "Kernel driver in use: hostap_pci" | 03:52 |
| lsv | how can I change that? | 03:53 |
| SIR_Taco | lsv: what is currently using your lan drivers? | 03:54 |
| lsv | SIR_Taco: I don't understand the question. | 03:54 |
| lsv | what should I do to find out? | 03:54 |
| SIR_Taco | let me boot my laptop to find out definitively... | 03:56 |
| lsv | ok, thanks for helping me. I know I'm taking a big part of your day. | 03:57 |
| Squidy_at_Home | hello guys... is there any repository to install ubuntu one on kubuntu? | 03:57 |
| sythe | yes | 03:58 |
| sythe | "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop" | 03:58 |
| sythe | from the terminal | 03:58 |
| sythe | Then, "sudo dpkg -reconfigure kdm" | 03:58 |
| sythe | Or, "sudo dpkg -reconfigure gdm" | 03:58 |
| sythe | You have to pick GNOME when you login, though | 03:59 |
| sythe | Initially | 03:59 |
| SIR_Taco | lsv: just pass it along when you can, that's all that anyone around here asks | 03:59 |
| sythe | Squidy_at_Home: Got it? | 03:59 |
| Squidy_at_Home | sythe: ubuntu-desktop? I don't want to install gnome desktop here | 03:59 |
| Squidy_at_Home | :/ | 03:59 |
| Squidy_at_Home | only ubuntu one and the gtk libs needed | 04:00 |
| sythe | Ugh | 04:00 |
| sythe | You MUST install them both | 04:00 |
| sythe | Got it? | 04:00 |
| lsv | SIR_Taco: got it. I sometimes help with little things on the #ubuntu channel | 04:00 |
| sythe | You can't pick and choose, without going through hell, Squidy_at_Home | 04:00 |
| SIR_Taco | lsv: that's the way to do it | 04:01 |
| Squidy_at_Home | sythe: or just use dropbox.. =/ | 04:01 |
| sythe | Ok, Squidy_at_Home...you don't know what you're talking about | 04:02 |
| Squidy_at_Home | sythe: why not? | 04:02 |
| sythe | You can't pick and choose, without going through hell, Squidy_at_Home | 04:03 |
| sythe | Got it? | 04:03 |
| sythe | You MUST install them both | 04:03 |
| sythe | Got it? | 04:03 |
| Squidy_at_Home | ok | 04:03 |
| sythe | Good | 04:03 |
| Squidy_at_Home | anybody installed ubuntuone on kubuntu? | 04:06 |
| sythe | It comes with normal Ubuntu | 04:07 |
| sythe | You can also download the DEB | 04:07 |
| sythe | It should work perfectly | 04:07 |

| aperson | if I disable the transparency, the images are fine. So, does anyone have experience with this? | 04:39 |
| Daskreech | can you choose how much transparency? | 04:48 |

| LINKSWORD2 | Anyone know how to compile a program file? | 06:35 |
| LINKSWORD2 | I was working with DarkwingDuck before I had a connection problem. | 06:35 |
| Kalidarn | LINKSWORD2: not quite sure what you mean by 'compile a program file' | 06:36 |
| LINKSWORD2 | Just a moment. I can get the link for the file. | 06:37 |
| lsv | LINKSWORD2: gcc -Wall -o program_name source_files.c | 06:38 |
| Kalidarn | :P well that's assuming it's C code he's trying to compile. | 06:38 |
| === submachine_ is now known as submachine_daemo | ||
| LINKSWORD2 | ... I've no idea what that means. | 06:39 |
| === submachine_daemo is now known as submachine_ | ||
| Kalidarn | just tell us what you are trying to do, and a link by all means would help define what you are trying to do | 06:39 |
| lsv | does the file ends with .c | 06:39 |
| Kalidarn | just find that link for us so we can tell you | 06:40 |
| lsv | LINKSWORD2: yeah what Kalidarn said | 06:40 |
| LINKSWORD2 | http://sourceforge.net/projects/passwordmanager/files/PwManager STABLE/1.2.4/pwmanager-1.2.4.tar.bz2/download | 06:40 |
| Kalidarn | oh so you are trying to compile a piece of software you found on the internet | 06:40 |
| Kalidarn | well. | 06:40 |
| Kalidarn | look at the readme, usually a good place to start | 06:41 |
| Kalidarn | you may have trouble meeting those dependencies due to the fact it's old unmaintained software | 06:42 |
| LINKSWORD2 | Well, I asked DarkwingDuck about a password manager, and this is the one he recommended. | 06:42 |
| Kalidarn | and it hasn't been ported to KDE4 | 06:43 |
| LINKSWORD2 | If this one won't work, I'd like to be notified of an alternative... | 06:43 |
| Kalidarn | i usually just store mine in a text file (inside a truecrypt volume) | 06:43 |
| Kalidarn | that way it's accessable on any OS | 06:43 |
| Kalidarn | i think a lot of people use keepassx | 06:44 |
| LINKSWORD2 | keepassx? | 06:44 |
| Kalidarn | which you wont need to compile because it's in the ubuntu repository | 06:44 |
| Kalidarn | sudo apt-get install keepassx | 06:45 |
| Kalidarn | pwmanager (the software you linked) hasn't been updated since 2005 | 06:45 |
| Kalidarn | so i wouldn't use it :) | 06:45 |
| Kalidarn | i also had a look at the readme, and it says it needs kdelibs 3.1 and qt3.1 | 06:45 |
| Kalidarn | you'll have trouble meeting those dependencies to compile it. | 06:45 |
| Kalidarn | it hasn't been updated to use the newer libraries | 06:46 |
| Kalidarn | oh LINKSWORD2 you're back | 06:47 |
| LINKSWORD2 | I didn't know I'd left.... | 06:47 |
| Kalidarn | looks like your internet dced on you. | 06:47 |
| lsv | <-- LINKSWORD2 has left this server (Read error: Connection reset by peer). | 06:47 |
| Kalidarn | but yeah i'd use http://www.keepassx.org/screenshots/ | 06:47 |
| Kalidarn | http://packages.ubuntu.com/natty/keepassx especially as it's maintained, and in ubuntu's repository | 06:48 |
| LINKSWORD2 | This is going to take some learning... lol | 06:51 |
| Kalidarn | just install it through kpackageit | 06:51 |
| Kalidarn | or type "sudo apt-get install keepassx" | 06:51 |
| LINKSWORD2 | No, no... It's installed now. | 06:51 |
| Kalidarn | ah | 06:52 |
| LINKSWORD2 | But I mean I'm going to have to learn how to use the program. lol | 06:52 |
| Kalidarn | ya | 06:52 |
| Kalidarn | that's why i just use a .TXT file in a truecrypt container | 06:52 |
| Kalidarn | and probably more secure too :P | 06:52 |
| LINKSWORD2 | truecrypt? | 06:53 |
| Kalidarn | http://www.truecrypt.org/ | 06:53 |
| Kalidarn | pretty much the best encryption software | 06:53 |
| === ocs is now known as faLUCE | ||

| LINKSWORD2 | lol | 06:54 |

| Kalidarn | why bother saving it these days | 06:55 |
| LINKSWORD2 | LMAO! | 06:55 |
| LINKSWORD2 | I was kidding around with you. | 06:56 |
| LINKSWORD2 | But it sounds like you've got some demons to reconcile... | 06:56 |

| LINKSWORD2 | Sorry. Just a joke. | 07:00 |
| LINKSWORD2 | Ah. There's a good question.... | 07:12 |
| LINKSWORD2 | Anybody know what *FREE* software I can download via a torrent engine? | 07:12 |
| rww | Kubuntu :3 | 07:13 |
| LINKSWORD2 | I know OpenOffice.org is one of them, but that's about all I know of, and with Kubuntu using LibreOffice, Open isn't needed. | 07:13 |
| LINKSWORD2 | ... Of course, Kubuntu. I forgot to mention that. | 07:13 |
| LINKSWORD2 | Odd. | 07:15 |
| LINKSWORD2 | Rekong isn't affected by the Alt+D command, to jump to the address bar... | 07:15 |
| LINKSWORD2 | And apparently, neither is Konqueror. | 07:16 |
| LINKSWORD2 | Is that keyboard shortcut just not programmed into those browsers? | 07:17 |

| James147 | antihero: you can try "akonadi-kde-resource-googledata" | 09:32 |
| antihero | James147: Thank you fellow James. How pray I set it up once I've installed that? | 09:36 |
| alvin | Akonadi resources were removed from system settings because developers deemed users too stupid to set them up properly. You'll have to search for it. | 09:38 |

| Tm_T | eean: what was it? | 09:47 |

| eean | psh okay | 09:51 |
| Tm_T | eean: 11.04 with 4.7? | 09:51 |
| eean | somehow I missed that | 09:51 |
| eean | just upgraded to 4.7 that must be it... I'll pretend it wasn't there in 4.6 :) | 09:51 |
| Tm_T | (; | 09:52 |
| Tm_T | actually, back then it might have been somewhere else | 09:52 |
| Tm_T | and as the search of systemsettings is what it is... | 09:52 |

| lokai | I'm trying to setup dual monitors under the latest ubuntu/KDE. When I set up the monitors as I wish in systemsetting (or via xrandr), I get logged off and the monitors are reverted back to their default configuration (mirrored). How do I fix this? | 11:13 |
| alvin | lokai: Put your xrandr commands in /etc/kde4/kdm/Xsetup | 11:14 |
| lokai | why won't it work when I directly input them in the commandline? | 11:15 |
| === Bodia__ is now known as Bodia | ||
| alvin | lolcat: It should. | 11:23 |
| lokai | I'm trying to get dual monitor under the latest kde/ubuntu, and making the correct setting in systemsetting or xrandr forces a system logout, which restores the original configuration. How do I solve this? | 11:24 |
| alvin | As I just told you. You put the commands in /etc/kde4/kdm/Xsetup. Another method is using /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 11:26 |
| lokai | alvin, doing what you suggested just caused me to be locked out of the GUI part of my system, bro | 11:27 |
| lokai | had to ssh and revert back to the original xsetup | 11:27 |
| lokai | which isn't surprising when you think about how I described the problem, actually. | 11:28 |
| alvin | I'm sorry. Let me rephrase then: put the correct xrandr commands in /etc/kde4/kdm/Xsetup :-) | 11:28 |
| alvin | If you test them using the command line and they don't work, they will not in Xsetup either. | 11:28 |
| lokai | k, is this wrong? xrandr --output VGA1 --left-of DVI1 | 11:29 |
| alvin | If you're using binary nvidia drivers, don't use xrandr. Use /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 11:29 |
| alvin | Doesn't look wrong to me. | 11:29 |
| alvin | As long as your device names are correct. Just typing xrandr in an X terminal should tell you the possibilities that are detected. | 11:30 |
| lokai | ugh, but there is no more xorg.conf in latest release, is there? | 11:30 |
| alvin | By default everything is auto-detected, but you can still use the file. It works perfectly and is needed if you want to use nvidia's twinview. | 11:30 |
| James147 | lokai: if you have an nvidia card with the closed drivers installed then run "sudo nvidia-xconfig" and "kdesudo nvidia-settings" to configure the dualscreen | 11:32 |
| afief | In LireOffice the tooltips have black background + black text color(Kubuntu 11.04+kde4.7 ppa). Is there a way to fix this? | 11:33 |
| lokai | eh, I'm using some integrated chip | 11:33 |
| James147 | lokai: .lspci | grep VGA | 11:34 |
| lokai | 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82945G/GZ Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 02) | 11:34 |
| James147 | intel should work with xrandr :S | 11:34 |
| lokai | yep, I don't have any ideas. The device name are correct, btw | 11:35 |

| BluesKaj | Hello all | 11:40 |
| noaXess | Hey BluesKaj | 11:41 |
| BluesKaj | hi noaXess | 11:41 |
| noaXess | i try to upgrade to kde 4.7 but update process still on 47% since 1 hour :( | 11:41 |
| noaXess | current package.. libktorrent-l10n.. on another machine.. same problem.. current package there shared-desktop.onotologies | 11:42 |
| noaXess | do i need break the process and to it over cmli? | 11:42 |
| noaXess | command line | 11:42 |
| BluesKaj | , what method , add ppa then upgrae | 11:43 |
| BluesKaj | upgrade? | 11:43 |
| noaXess | BluesKaj: yes.. but had backports ppa long time ago added... just upgrade over software updates | 11:43 |
| BluesKaj | right | 11:44 |
| noaXess | so breack current upgrade process and run sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade? | 11:44 |
| BluesKaj | noaXess, dunno for sure , but maybe purge ktorrent , do the upgrade mormally, sudo apt-get dist-upgrade , then reinstall ktorrent later | 11:46 |
| noaXess | BluesKaj: but on the other machine a complete other package won't installed.. so seems it's not a ktorrent package problem | 11:47 |
| BluesKaj | sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade just upgrades the installed packages | 11:47 |
| noaXess | on the other machin i killed dpkg and packagekitd now sudo dpkg --configure -a | 11:47 |
| BluesKaj | yes | 11:48 |
| noaXess | seem to work like this.. will that do also on my main machine.. | 11:48 |
| BluesKaj | ok that sounds right | 11:48 |
| noaXess | BluesKaj: you tried also upgrade to 4.7? | 11:48 |
| BluesKaj | do dist-upgrade | 11:48 |
| noaXess | ok.. | 11:48 |
| BluesKaj | yes I have 4.7 installed | 11:48 |
| noaXess | isnt't dist-upgrade deprecated? | 11:49 |
| BluesKaj | not for upgrades to kde , only for the distro | 11:49 |
| BluesKaj | the distro is do-release-upgrade , now | 11:50 |
| noaXess | BluesKaj: ah. .yes | 11:50 |
| noaXess | seems to work on my second machine.. a netbook | 11:51 |
| James147 | noaXess: dist-upgrade is not deprecated, it is used to upgrade all packages even if they require other packages to be install or removed... the normal upgrade wont install these packages | 11:51 |
| noaXess | James147: aha.. goot information ; | 11:51 |
| noaXess | ) | 11:51 |
| noaXess | ;) grr. | 11:51 |
| noaXess | thanks | 11:51 |
| FloodBotK1 | noaXess: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. | 11:51 |
| James147 | noaXess: do-release-upgrade is just a nicer way of doing the upgrade process between distros but essentiallys is just the same thing (edit sources.list > run apt-get dist-upgrade > run apt-get autoremove basically) | 11:53 |
| noaXess | grrr.. still on a kde upgrade.. network-manager-kde will be installed.. but i use wicd... purge network-manager... | 11:53 |
| noaXess | do you guys nowing anything about multitouching on linux?... on my netbook, asus, i have a touchscreen.. it works from scratch.. but multitouching will be interesting... from scratch ;) | 11:55 |

| genii-around | I haven't seen the lingering icon problem with any of my different versions ( 4.6.4, 4.7 ) but it sounds like possibly a video card artifact problem | 19:43 |
| jmichaelx | genii-around: possibly, however this is occuring on two different machines. one with an nvdia ion2 gpu w/prop. drivers, the other with intel x3150 and FOSS drivers | 19:47 |

It is a double-wide version of PCI, running at up to four times the clock speed, but is otherwise similar in electrical implementation and uses the same protocol.[1] It has been replaced in modern designs by the similar-sounding PCI Express, which features a very different logical | 21:09 |
