| pidus | Tried everything that I could find on the net to make youtube work on my ff, which worked flawlessly on 10.10, but refuses to go beyond a black screen in 11.04 | 03:43 |

| Floclo | Hi guys | 06:32 |
| Floclo | How do I check if grub is installed from the terminal in a live cd | 06:33 |
| Floclo | I'm running dual boot on ms osx | 06:33 |
| Linkmaster | Floclo: if you're using your system, grub should be installed - you can try pressing the 'shift' key, or wait for grub to show up. | 06:34 |
| Floclo | Not working... | 06:34 |
| Linkmaster | Alright | 06:34 |
| Floclo | I have followed the dual boot instructions... | 06:34 |
| Floclo | On ubuntu forums | 06:34 |
| Floclo | But | 06:34 |
| Linkmaster | Did you install windows before or after? | 06:34 |
| Floclo | After finishing install I try to boot to kubuntu and I get no os found | 06:35 |
| Floclo | I had osx lion first | 06:35 |
| Floclo | I'm dual booting to kubuntu | 06:36 |
| Floclo | Can I manually install to the kubuntu partition | 06:36 |
| Floclo | Or maybe there is another issue | 06:37 |
| Floclo | Any suggestions Linkmaster ? | 06:38 |
| redeyyez | my laptop has issues detecting smb shares if its been connected to another network. Have to reboot to get things working properly there must be a way to do this via terminal | 06:38 |
| Linkmaster | Try installing grub into the kubuntu installation. I don't deal with OS X, so I'm not the best in the world for that | 06:38 |
| Floclo | Yea how do I install manually? | 06:39 |
| Linkmaster | redeyyez: you can ssh, if you know how[I don't know well enough to teach though, just giving you google ideas] | 06:39 |
| Linkmaster | Floclo: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1195275 | 06:40 |
| redeyyez | Linkmaster: thanks for the idea, i was leaning more towards a command to restart network services or something along that line | 06:40 |
| Floclo | I found instructions for ubuntu but I can't use su | 06:40 |
| Linkmaster | I wouldn't know about that, other then bringing down your network interface with ifconfig | 06:40 |
| Floclo | Oohh | 06:41 |
| Shirakawasuna | Floclo: supposed to be sudo | 06:41 |
| Linkmaster | Floclo: using a live cd, just type 'sudo' and it'll be executed automatically | 06:41 |
| Shirakawasuna | Floclo: ubuntu doesn't like 'su' alone. sudo su works, though | 06:41 |
| Floclo | New site thanks Linkmaster and Shirakawasuna awesome help | 06:41 |
| Floclo | Will seevhow i go | 06:41 |
| Linkmaster | good luck | 06:43 |
| redeyyez | no one has a lot of networking experience with kubuntu? | 06:44 |
| Linkmaster | redeyyez: wait patiently. there are a lot of skilled people in the channel, but not all are at their clients at the moment | 06:45 |
| redeyyez | tried sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart sometimes this helps | 06:45 |
| redeyyez | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NetworkConfigurationCommandLine/Automatic#Configure laptops for multiple locations Nice read here for future use. | 06:56 |
| Floclo | Hey guys still going with this grub issue. In the mean time I thought I would chat about beginning with Linux | 07:04 |
| Floclo | Any one got good resources for beginners to learn the system. | 07:04 |
| Alexia_Death | Floclo: Best way to learn is to use it. | 07:06 |
| Alexia_Death | Floclo: And google for solutions if you have problems. | 07:06 |
| Alexia_Death | Unlike windows, most error messages on lunx can be copy-pasted. | 07:07 |
| Floclo | Yea I'm trying to get dual boot on the Mac | 07:07 |
| Alexia_Death | Wow | 07:07 |
| Alexia_Death | Adavanced usecase... | 07:07 |
| Floclo | Yeah problems ATM | 07:07 |
| Floclo | ? | 07:07 |
| Alexia_Death | having never ownes or used or even touched a mac I cant help you with that im afraid:( | 07:08 |
| === daniel3_ is now known as daniel3 | ||
| Floclo | Lol yeah there are guides online | 07:08 |
| Alexia_Death | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBook <- this looks through- | 07:08 |
| Floclo | Hey should kubuntu install grub by default? | 07:10 |
| Alexia_Death | It does usually | 07:10 |
| Alexia_Death | but boot ing for mac-s is abit different so I dont know. | 07:10 |
| Floclo | I'm trying to work out if it is installed on the partition I installed kubuntu to | 07:11 |
| Floclo | Do you know how ican tell the terminal to look at dev/sda5 to see if it's installed? | 07:11 |
| Alexia_Death | It would be easier to look in the config file and see if it is where it should be | 07:12 |
| Alexia_Death | then just run grub-install in chroot to make sure its installed. | 07:13 |
| Floclo | Were should it be if I'm looking in that drive | 07:15 |
| Alexia_Death | hmm /dev/sda5 is a partition... | 07:15 |
| Alexia_Death | I dont know how mac-s work but on pc-s default location for grub is the mbr | 07:16 |
| Alexia_Death | you only ever install it on partition if you want to do chain loading I think :/ | 07:17 |
| Floclo | Ohhh I | 07:17 |
| Floclo | Am thinking I don't know enough either yet | 07:17 |
| Alexia_Death | yeah... Wait for a mac user to show. | 07:18 |
| Floclo | I didn't want to install to mbr incase I screw my osx install | 07:18 |
| Alexia_Death | Or take some risks and experiment:) | 07:18 |
| Alexia_Death | Yeah. | 07:18 |
| Alexia_Death | if you dont install it in mbr then you need to configure your os-x loader to chainload. | 07:18 |
| Alexia_Death | but I dont know how thats done:) | 07:19 |
| Alexia_Death | find a guide:) | 07:19 |
| Alexia_Death | maybe you need that bootcamp thingy. | 07:19 |
| Floclo | Yeah I've got refix as the boot loader | 07:20 |
| Floclo | I've got a tut for ubuntu should it all work the same for kubuntu because if so it hasn't! | 07:21 |
| Floclo | Any Mac users here"!? | 07:23 |
| Floclo | So weird... I've got the got saying the kubuntu partition is basic data?! | 07:24 |
| tobago | is vim on kubuntu broken? when i yank some line in visual mode, close the file, open another file and try to paste the stuff, the (default) register "" is empty. how come? | 08:37 |
| tobago | vim on ubuntu itself (other machine) works as expected. | 08:38 |
| szal | tobago: compare *buntu version and package version, then either answer your question yourself or question its validity ;) | 08:44 |
| yofel | tobago: only thing I could think of is messing around with the klipper settings. Maybe that messes up the clipboard handling | 08:46 |
| yofel | or close klipper and check if it works then | 08:46 |
| tobago | szal: ubuntu (kernel 2.6.24-29-generic): vim --version --> 7.1 / kubuntu (kernel 2.6.38-10-generic): vim --version --> 7.3 | 08:47 |
| yofel | well, that's two different vim versions, but it works fine for me in 7.3 | 08:47 |
| szal | kernel 2.6.24? that's a heck of an unsupported version.. | 08:48 |
| tobago | szal: well on that kernel vim works perfectly. | 08:48 |
| szal | smells like Intrepid or Jaunty | 08:49 |
| yofel | it's hardy | 08:49 |
| tobago | szal: even worse: heron ;) | 08:49 |
| tobago | yofel right | 08:49 |
| szal | which has ended its life recently even on the server | 08:49 |
| yofel | er, no, it hasn't | 08:49 |
| szal | er, yes, it has | 08:50 |
| szal | !hardy | 08:50 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu 8.04 LTS (Hardy Heron) was the eighth release of Ubuntu. Desktop support ended on May 12 2011. See !upgrade, !lts and !eol for more details. | 08:50 |
| yofel | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases server supported till april 2013 | 08:50 |
| tobago | szal: the desktop is not support any longer. but that's another story... it's because on that machine the gma500 intel chipset is not supported by linux. | 08:50 |
| szal | ah, on the desktop, ok | 08:50 |
| tobago | in newer versions the x11 doesn't support that chipset. | 08:50 |
| tobago | anyway. i just want to get vim running on the current kubuntu... | 08:51 |
| tobago | i means, it runs, but not as expected due to yanking/pasting in the register. | 08:51 |
| tobago | yofel alright. i try killing klipper and then try the yanking/pasting again. | 08:52 |
| yofel | I've klipper synchronised to xclipboard, matters maybe | 08:53 |
| yofel | well, coffee break, bbl | 08:53 |
| tobago | yofel: mmh. killed klipper but still the same issue. | 08:53 |
| tobago | maybe a setting in the vimrc? | 08:54 |

| reno__ | hello there! | 15:54 |
| reno__ | who can help me with something? | 15:54 |
| Linkmaster | !anyone | reno__ | 15:55 |
| ubottu | reno__: A high percentage of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? See also !details, !gq, and !poll. | 15:55 |
| Linkmaster | :D | 15:55 |
| reno__ | i wanna install a win game on my kubuntu and i don't know commands to run a iso file.... | 15:56 |
| Linkmaster | I used to know this one, did it quite a few times awhile ago, give me a second | 15:57 |
| Linkmaster | Its faily depedant on where you want to mount it, but sudo mkdir /media/iso sudo modprobe loop sudo mount file.iso /media/iso/ -t iso9660 -o loop is what your looking for | 15:59 |
| reno__ | i want only to open that iso and install | 15:59 |
| Linkmaster | It can be shortened to "sudo mount /path/to/file.iso iso9660 -o loop" but the mounting directory makes life easier | 16:00 |
| Linkmaster | I did this when trying to install neverwinternights, so from my experience, the best way to go about what you want is to "sudo mkdir /mnt/isoname" then "sudo mount /path/to/file.iso /mnt/isoname is9660 -o loop" to have it mount in the /mnt directory. Once thats done, using wine or whatever, you can select the installation .exe | 16:01 |
| reno__ | let me try that | 16:02 |
| reno__ | found in mnt directory only game folder but empty | 16:07 |
| reno__ | you know if i can run installed games using wine? | 16:08 |
| Linkmaster | Interesting, nothing came up? | 16:18 |
| reno__ | fount some scripts | 16:21 |
| reno__ | with mount and unmount | 16:21 |

| mac_ | Am new to Kubuntu but 4 years experience with Ubuntu. Using Ver 11.04 of Ubuntu, I notice that DigiKam lost its main taskbar but after a restart the taskbar would sometimes appear. Recently I found the same problem with Kubuntu. Does anyone know what might be causing the problem and offer a solution? | 17:33 |
| raevin | anyone good w/ iptables? | 18:31 |
| raevin | The man page for it doesntdo me justice on what I want/need to acoomplish | 18:31 |
| vikapi | raevin: wat do u want to accomplish.. | 18:34 |
| raevin | vikapi: I have all my rules in the NAT table right now, because I need the pre-routing feature...however, I want to have a drop rule as well at the end of it all, but if I do iptables -A INPUT -j DROP, it filters before my NAT rules can come into effect | 18:35 |
| raevin | should i do iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport <public port> -j ACCEPT too before the drop? | 18:35 |
| raevin | well, i did that and it's not working either o.o | 18:38 |
| Pi^2 | Hi, been experiencing this weird problem...after a few days of everything running smoothly, my system will refuse to start any new processes...anything that I attempt to run simply appears in the taskbar as loading, disappears and never starts | 18:47 |
| Pi^2 | it's happened a few times, the only way to correct being restart, just happened right now (i currently can't start anything, can't even open a Konsole to see what's up) | 18:48 |
| raevin | Pi^2: what does sysctl fs.file-max return? | 18:48 |
| Pi^2 | fs.file-max = 384044 | 18:49 |
| Pi^2 | and i just checked my ps x output via xchat's /exec command...the processes im attempting to start are indeed "running", but not displaying on the GUI | 18:49 |
| raevin | do sysctl fs.file-max=790759 && sysctl -p | 18:49 |
| raevin | might have to be root | 18:49 |
| raevin | samething happened my server a few times, the file descriptor/handles are set to a low amount | 18:50 |
| Pi^2 | k, sec | 18:50 |
| raevin | yup | 18:50 |
| Pi^2 | hm, this did not appear to resolve the issue | 18:52 |
| Pi^2 | or must i restart my xsession? | 18:53 |
| raevin | does it ressolve after you restart your computer? you can try, doesn't hurt lol | 18:53 |
| raevin | i did this on a headless machine so i can't say if x could cause it, but it owuldn't surprise me | 18:54 |
| Pi^2 | well, the problem resolves when I restart, but it always comes back after a few days | 18:54 |
| Pi^2 | ex, my uptime is about 6 days, which started when I had to reboot to fix the issue the last time around ^ | 18:54 |
| raevin | sounds like a file descriptor issue, but i thought the changes took effect immediately. does it happen still if you just log out n log back in? | 18:55 |
| Pi^2 | i'll find out (about to disconnect) | 18:55 |
| raevin | k | 18:55 |
| Pi^2 | yea , relogging fixed the issue | 18:57 |
| raevin | maybe had to relog in for the sysctl settings to take effect o.o | 18:58 |
| raevin | glad it's fixed now :) | 18:58 |
| Pi^2 | :) | 18:58 |
| Pi^2 | ty | 18:58 |
| gadmin | hi | 18:58 |
| raevin | np Pi^2 :D | 18:58 |
| raevin | hey gadmin | 18:58 |
| gadmin | i have problem | 19:01 |
| gadmin | with my ubuntu | 19:01 |
| gadmin | can somebody help me | 19:01 |
| Linkmaster | Why don't you tell us | 19:01 |
| Linkmaster | We can't help if we don't know anything thats wrong | 19:02 |
| Linkmaster | Though, if its ubuntu, you should try #ubuntu | 19:02 |
| gadmin | i can't open my csharp applications with mono | 19:02 |

| rectec794613 | what directory are the plasma themes at? | 19:08 |
| reno__ | hi! how i can mount an iso to install a application, i using kubuntu | 19:09 |
| raevin | reno__: sudo mkdir /media/iso && sudo mount -o loop /<path to iso> /media/iso | 19:12 |
| raevin | not sure if there's a KDE-specific or GUI way, but that's the CLI way | 19:12 |
| reno__ | count where i have isofile? | 19:12 |
| raevin | reno__: what do you mean? | 19:13 |
| reno__ | i have theat iso file in home/downloads/file.iso | 19:13 |
| raevin | if the iso is at /storage/isos/super.iso, then the command would be mkdir /media/iso && sudo -o loop /storage/isos/super.iso /media/iso | 19:13 |
| reno__ | clear | 19:15 |
| rectec794613 | anybody know the answer to my question? | 19:17 |
| rectec794613 | what directory are the plasma themes at? | 19:18 |
| raevin | rectec794613: have you tried doing a grep -r -H "<theme name>" /usr for a specific theme to see whre its at? | 19:18 |
| rectec794613 | doesnt show. my friend helped me with a theme not working the other day and he told me where the themes are but i dont remember now that the problem happened again | 19:21 |
| rectec794613 | he told me where to go to delete the theme files | 19:21 |
| rectec794613 | raevin: do you know where they are? | 19:23 |
| raevin | rectec794613: sadly no, i'd only assume they're either in /usr or your home directory somewhere | 19:25 |
| rectec794613 | ok i'll do some digging around and tell you if i find it | 19:28 |
| Snowhog | rectec794613: If you are looking for the Desktop Themes directory, they are at /usr/share/kde4/apps/desktoptheme (unless a downloaded theme was installed, in which case it will be in your user home directory (hidden)) | 19:28 |
| Snowhog | rectec794613: If a downloaded/installed Desktop Theme, then look in ~/.kde/share/apps/desktoptheme | 19:30 |
| rectec794613 | oh ok | 19:30 |
| rectec794613 | looks like it might work | 19:30 |
| rectec794613 | yeah i think that's it | 19:31 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: thanks | 19:31 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: is the desktoptheme directory sopposed to be owned by root? | 19:37 |
| === skreech_ is now known as DaskreecH | ||
| Snowhog | rectec794613: If you are referring to the one in your user home directory, no. In /usr/share/..., yes. | 19:37 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: is there a reason why the changes made (installing/uninstalling themes) in the "Get Hot New Stuff" program don't make a difference in ~/.kde/share/apps/desktoptheme? | 19:41 |
| Snowhog | rectec794613: IIUC, when you download/install new Themes from "Get Hot New Stuff", they are installed in the users home directory. | 19:43 |
| rectec794613 | doesnt make a difference with me unless i manually delete the theme folder | 19:43 |
| Snowhog | rectec794613: Are you saying that when you did so (downloaded/installed), that the resulting theme is showing as owned by root? | 19:43 |
| rectec794613 | no my home folder's desktoptheme directory is owned by me; i was looking at the wrong one before | 19:44 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: sorry forgot to add ur name to my post | 19:46 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: wow hold on. got another problem. my entire desktop changed back to the way it was a week ago | 19:48 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: again | 19:48 |
| rectec794613 | i need somebody to help me through this | 19:49 |
| Snowhog | rectec794613: Well, did you just delete a theme directory? | 19:49 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: no | 19:50 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: left everything as it was | 19:50 |
| Snowhog | rectec794613: And it just 'magically' changed while you were looking at it?? | 19:50 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: but my wallpaper, widgets, icons, theme, and more are changed | 19:50 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: yeah im not kidding | 19:50 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: it happened once before | 19:51 |
| Snowhog | rectec794613: What did you do just before it happened? | 19:51 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: switched desktops | 19:51 |
| Snowhog | rectec794613: Do you have separate activities for desktops set? | 19:51 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: no but i use compiz | 19:52 |
| Snowhog | rectec794613: So, if you switch back to the previous desktop, does it all look okay on that one? | 19:52 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: no all four of them are like that. ok well i can change it back but i need to know how to prevent this, and i think it has something to do with the themes | 19:53 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: lemme restart and i'll come back | 19:54 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: ok back | 19:57 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: i think i know why | 19:57 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: are the wallpaper and widgets, etc all stored in the desktoptheme's theme folder? | 19:58 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: side problem: how come if i try to open the trash it says "Malformed URL trash:/" | 20:00 |
| Snowhog | rectec794613: Desktop Themes come with their own color scheme and widgets. I don't believe they come with their own wallpaper. | 20:00 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: what if you change the wallpaper while using the theme? | 20:01 |
| Snowhog | rectec794613: I don't believe so. Wallpaper selection is not specifically part of a Desktop Theme package. | 20:02 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: well gimme a second gonna restart again | 20:04 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: hm well if you dont have a solution i guess i'll just change everything back, do a backup and hope for the best | 20:07 |
| Snowhog | rectec794613: I don't use Compiz, as Kwin works just fine for my needs. | 20:07 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: yeah i just dont wanna reconfigure everything | 20:08 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: wait lol | 20:14 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: omg i cant believe this | 20:14 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: i was pressing super+tab because its the hotkey to my window switcher | 20:15 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: turns out its also used to switch desktop styles | 20:15 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: unbelievable | 20:16 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: all this trouble over nothing | 20:16 |
| Snowhog | rectec794613: A keyboard shortcut that controls two actions!? I didn't think that was possible. | 20:17 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: no sometimes they take over eachother; sometimes the compiz hotkey works, sometimes its the kde | 20:17 |
| Snowhog | rectec794613: Simple fix then. Reconfigure either one so that the keyboard shortcut key combo is different. | 20:18 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: yeah thats a huge load off my shoulders (no pun intended) i thought i had a serious problem there | 20:19 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: ok so anything i can do about the malformed url error when opening the trash? | 20:22 |
| Snowhog | rectec794613: Delete the Trash widget and readd it. See if it works then. | 20:23 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: im having the problem with the kickoff shortcut under "Computer" | 20:24 |
| Sa[i]nT | I come from windows and I'm used to the WinSDK, where do I look to make applications in kubuntu? Not QT if at all. | 20:24 |
| Snowhog | rectec794613: Clarify please? | 20:25 |
| xzased | Hi. I am using dolphin to sftp into one of my servers. I added it as a network folder, but it always prompts me 3 times for my password, even when 'save password' is checked. Is there a way to make dolphin use kwallet or something similart so it doesn't ask me for the password again? | 20:25 |
| Snowhog | rectec794613: Okay, understand. You are trying to open Trash via K > Computer > Trash and it won't let you, saying malformed URL | 20:27 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: exactly | 20:27 |
| Snowhog | rectec794613: Can you open the Trash from the Trash widget (either on your Panel or the Desktop, assuming it's in one of those locations)? | 20:28 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: no, the only way i can is by opening dolphin and going to it through the places menu | 20:29 |
| Snowhog | rectec794613: Which Desktop Theme are you using, and what version of Kubuntu and KDE? | 20:30 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: H2O, Kubuntu 11.04, KDE 4.6.2 | 20:31 |
| Snowhog | rectec794613: If you change Desktop Themes, to Oxygen say, does the problem persist - can you access the Trash via K > Computer > Trash? | 20:33 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: yeah same problem | 20:33 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: if its any problem with you i dont need to access trash that way *that bad* | 20:34 |
| Snowhog | rectec794613: Has this been a problem 'always' for you, or can you remember when it first became a problem? | 20:35 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: i think its always been like this. i've had problems from the start using this on my new pc, and have been through several reinstallations | 20:36 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: whats KIOExec? should i reinstall it? | 20:37 |
| Snowhog | rectec794613: You might want to concider upgrading to KDE 4.6.4 (you are behind with your 4.6.2 release). | 20:39 |
| rectec794613 | whenever i check for updates it gives me this error: http://pastebin.com/5DjT6EuZ I'm using Muon | 20:42 |
| WFeather | Need help getting a ATI 6870 and nVidia GTX 260 to both work with Kubuntu 11.04, want to run 2 monitors on the 6870(in DVI already done) | 20:42 |
| WFeather | plus one on DVI on the 260 | 20:42 |
| rectec794613 | sorry i mean | 20:42 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: whenever i check for updates it gives me this error: http://pastebin.com/5DjT6EuZ I'm using Muon | 20:42 |
| Snowhog | rectec794613: Change to a different Server in Muon > Settings > Configure Software Sources > Kubuntu Software > Download from (I use Server for the United States) | 20:46 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: yeah thats what im using. should i just delete those repos? | 20:47 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: or uncheck? | 20:48 |
| Snowhog | rectec794613: Those entries are written incorrectly. | 20:56 |
| Snowhog | rectec794613: What ppa's from launchpad had you tried to add? | 20:57 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: i havent added those | 20:58 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: cant check for updates and the only one i have to do is for wine | 20:59 |
| Snowhog | rectec794613: Well, someone did, as ppa repositories are not included in a Kubuntu installation. | 20:59 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: so what should i do? | 21:00 |
| Snowhog | rectec794613: I would delete them myself - they don't work as written anyway. | 21:00 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: can i do that from a terminal? i dont see them listed in the software sources | 21:01 |
| Snowhog | rectec794613: If you want to upgrade to KDE 4.6.4 (recommended IMO), you do so by closing Muon (if it's running) and open a console and type: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:kubuntu-ppa/ppa followed by sudo apt-get update and then sudo apg-get dist-upgrade | 21:02 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: ok hopefully muon will be better once it finally rolls around as the official package manager and installer of kubuntu | 21:03 |
| Snowhog | rectec794613: As to deleting those malformed ppa entries, open Muon and go to Software Sources and locate the entries there and delete them. | 21:03 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: as i said before, i cant find the exact same repo's as the error lists. what should i look for? | 21:04 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: gonna backup my home folder then do the upgrade | 21:06 |
| Snowhog | rectec794613: In Software Sources click on the Other Software tab and look for the ones with ppa in them | 21:06 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: should i delete all the ppa's? thats like 3/4ths of the list | 21:08 |
| Snowhog | rectec794613: Take a screenshot and post to pastebin so I can look at what you have. | 21:08 |
| rectec794613 | what site do i use for pics? | 21:12 |
| Snowhog | rectec794613: http://pastebin.com like you did earlier | 21:12 |
| Snowhog | rectec794613: Hmm. If pastebin won't allow images to be posted, then post the contents of your /etc/apt/sources.list file. | 21:13 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: i just dont know how to do it on pastebin | 21:14 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: can i just send it please? | 21:15 |
| Snowhog | rectec794613: Sure. | 21:15 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: not getting it? | 21:19 |

| LINKSWORD2 | Hey guys, can I change the colors of the popup system notification for notices from Amarok? | 22:18 |
| raevin | erinaceus: can you do this? sudo apt-get update -f | 22:19 |
| raevin | or -f update, forgot which way it goes | 22:19 |
| LINKSWORD2 | I believe it's update -f | 22:20 |
| erinaceus | raevin: nope, produces the same error message | 22:20 |
| LINKSWORD2 | I haven't used that command in a while. xD | 22:20 |
| raevin | erinaceus: what does cat /var/lib/dpkg/updates/0002 give? | 22:22 |
| raevin | LINKSWORD2: lol, me neither, surprised i even remembered it exists lol | 22:22 |
| LINKSWORD2 | I need to change the colors of the popup system notifications.. And if I can, set specific colors for specific notices. | 22:23 |
| erinaceus | raevin: just 512 lines saying "#padding" and an empty one at the end | 22:24 |
| raevin | erinaceus: try deleting the file | 22:24 |
| raevin | LINKSWORD2: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1318289 | 22:25 |
| raevin | dunno if it'll work, but it looks like it will | 22:25 |
| erinaceus | raeving: Seems to have worked, sry to have bothered u when the solution was this obvious but i just reinstalled kubuntu after crashing it by attempting something like that :D So i hesitated, thx | 22:26 |
| raevin | LINKSWORD2: otherwise, look here: http://userbase.kde.org/Amarok/Manual/ConfiguringAmarok | 22:26 |
| raevin | erinaceus: it's no prob :) better to ask than to have abroken system, lol. | 22:26 |
| erinaceus | raeving: Yeah, that's what i thought too | 22:27 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: ok its finished | 22:27 |
| Snowhog | rectec794613: Wow! You must have a very good Broadband connection. Have you rebooted (did it require you to) yet? | 22:28 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: haha well its just basic cable. ok i'll go reboot, wish me luck | 22:28 |

| Snowhog | rectec794613: And are you now running KDE 4.6.4 (About > KDE) | 22:30 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: still says 4.6.2, a restart couldnt hurt | 22:31 |
| LINKSWORD2 | Looks like I need to update / upgrade Amarok. | 22:31 |
| LINKSWORD2 | Terminal isn't accepting my command, although I may be entering it incorrectly... | 22:32 |
| raevin | LINKSWORD2: what does the cli give you? | 22:32 |
| LINKSWORD2 | .... Excuse me? CLI? | 22:33 |
| raevin | the command prompt/terminal | 22:34 |
| raevin | what command ar eyou running and what happens when u do | 22:34 |
| Snowhog | rectec794613: In Software Sources > Updates tab, check Important and Recommended updates and under Release upgrade, select Normal Releases | 22:34 |
| LINKSWORD2 | Snowhog: You just said what I needed. Thanks. | 22:34 |
| rectec794613 | lol | 22:35 |
| LINKSWORD2 | ... Maybe not. | 22:36 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: it already was like that | 22:36 |
| LINKSWORD2 | Anyways, raevin... sudo apt-get install amarok -update | 22:36 |
| Snowhog | rectec794613: Then I'd shutdown and reboot. | 22:36 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: ok brb | 22:37 |
| raevin | LINKSWORD2: what happens when you do that command? | 22:37 |
| LINKSWORD2 | "Not found" lol | 22:38 |
| raevin | LINKSWORD2: well, it was also written in 2009, lol. here, follow this: http://userbase.kde.org/Amarok/Manual/ConfiguringAmarok#Notifications | 22:38 |
| raevin | LINKSWORD2: sorry, didn't see that until i sent you the ubuntu link | 22:38 |
| LINKSWORD2 | raevin: What I want is to change the color of the SYSTEM NOTIFICATIONS | 22:40 |
| LINKSWORD2 | No, I'm not shouting. I'm emphasizing what I want to change. | 22:40 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: ok it updated to 4.6.5, and for some reason, my Google background image changed | 22:41 |
| raevin | LINKSWORD2: sorry, guess i mis-understood since you mentioned amarok in your original question/support msg o.o | 22:42 |
| Snowhog | rectec794613: KDE 4.6.5 is the latest 'stable' version - it's what I'm using. Good job. | 22:42 |
| LINKSWORD2 | No prob. | 22:42 |
| LINKSWORD2 | If it's possible to change the color of the system notification for specific application related notices, that's what I want to do... | 22:43 |

| rectec794613 | Snowhog: exactly the same as last time: http://pastebin.com/5DjT6EuZ | 22:57 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: got a backup of sources.list.d. gonna sudo rm the respective repos | 22:59 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: ok well all i could delete in the sources.list.d folder was boxee, that fixed the 404 on *that*, however the ppa's are still getting 404s and i cant find them in the sources.list.d folder | 23:05 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: trying sources.list | 23:06 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: no luck | 23:07 |
| Snowhog | rectec794613: You won't find it in that file. The one that is producing the 404 is going to be /etc/apt/sources.list.d/kubuntu-ppa-ppa-natty.list You can verify that by commenting (unchecking) it in Software Sources > Other Software tab. | 23:09 |
| david | hello all, just looking for advice | 23:09 |
| === david is now known as Guest51948 | ||
| Guest51948 | I am trying to find a utility of application that allows me to record a macro or actions via GUI | 23:10 |
| LINKSWORD2 | !system notification | 23:12 |
| LINKSWORD2 | Guest51948: Let me look for something. I think I know what I can recommend... | 23:13 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: ok fixed it | 23:17 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: i'll explain how | 23:18 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: i did a sudo apt-get update from the terminal. it gave me errors different from the ones listed in muon. i cd'd to sources.list.d and sudo rm'd their files | 23:19 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: updated again and it was fixed | 23:19 |
| Snowhog | rectec794613: Do you still have the /etc/apt/sources.list.d/kubuntu-ppa-ppa-natty.list file? | 23:20 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: no i deleted it and it didnt solve any problems, should i restore it? | 23:21 |
| Snowhog | rectec794613: Well, it's the repository file that upgraded you to KDE 4.6.5, so without it, you'll not be able to get updates to your KDE 4.6.5 files you just upgraded to. | 23:22 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: ok | 23:22 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: ok i copied it back | 23:25 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: thanks for ur help | 23:25 |
| Snowhog | rectec794613: After copying it back, and in a console, redo the update command: sudo apt-get update and see if you still get the 404 error. I'd be curious. | 23:27 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: yeah i already did | 23:29 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: no errors in term. no errors in muon | 23:30 |
| Snowhog | rectec794613: I use Muon, but not for package management. I always do my installs/removals/purges and updates/dist-upgrades from the console. | 23:30 |
| LINKSWORD2 | Hmm... | 23:30 |
| LINKSWORD2 | raevin, you still here? | 23:30 |
| Snowhog | rectec794613: I'm glad that you were able to get that small niggle resolved. | 23:31 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: would i seem more pro if i did it like that? | 23:31 |
| raevin | LINKSWORD2: yearh, sorry, gf's over so kinda afk a bit | 23:31 |
| Snowhog | rectec794613: I choose to do it from the console with sudo apt-get because I like the user control it provides. I have nothing against Muon, and installed it back when it was first announced. I just prefer using the command line. I use Muon for 'finding' packages I might want to use. | 23:33 |
| LINKSWORD2 | claydoh: I think I need your help, mate. | 23:33 |
| rectec794613 | Snowhog: yeah seems like apt-get can be faster. at least it seems like it is when words are whizzing past | 23:33 |
| claydoh | LINKSWORD2: yes? | 23:34 |
| LINKSWORD2 | I'm missing some kind of script or plugin from the Notification Manager in System Settings. | 23:34 |
| LINKSWORD2 | .... I've also forgotten how to find images captured with KSnapshot. | 23:35 |
| claydoh | LINKSWORD2: images usually save to where you tell it to, though the default is /Documents iirc | 23:37 |
| rectec794613 | well later guys | 23:37 |
| LINKSWORD2 | !pastebin | 23:38 |

| claydoh | ....or is it /Desktop | 23:38 |

| === ubuntu_ is now known as ubuntu | ||
| claydoh | LINKSWORD2: as to notifications, more info needed | 23:39 |
| LINKSWORD2 | Trying to upload an image. imagebin is being a pain in the neck. | 23:39 |
| LINKSWORD2 | There we go.... http://imagebin.org/166862 | 23:39 |
| claydoh | which kde version? kcm_knotify is in kdebase-runtime in 4.6 and earlier, kde-runtime in 4.7 | 23:44 |
| LINKSWORD2 | KDE 4.7. | 23:45 |
| claydoh | it is part of kde-runtime, do you have | 23:47 |
| claydoh | /usr/lib/kde4/kcm_knotify.so | 23:47 |
| LINKSWORD2 | .... Huh? | 23:47 |
| claydoh | the image you have gives the error that kcm_knotify is missing | 23:47 |
| LINKSWORD2 | Clay, please explain more... And you may query if you need. | 23:47 |
| claydoh | do you have the file /usr/lib/kde4/kcm_knotify.so | 23:47 |
| LINKSWORD2 | I honestly don't know... | 23:48 |
| claydoh | well, take a looksee :P | 23:48 |
| LINKSWORD2 | How might I find that? | 23:48 |
| claydoh | use a file manager, dolphin | 23:49 |
| LINKSWORD2 | No, it doesn't appear to be there. | 23:51 |
| claydoh | my only suggestion on this is to try reinstalling the package kde-runtime, which will reinstall that file if it is missing | 23:52 |
| LINKSWORD2 | sudo apt-get install kde-runtime ??? | 23:52 |
| claydoh | sure, or use a package manager of your choice. | 23:52 |
| claydoh | may have to add ''--reinstall'' if it already installed | 23:53 |
| LINKSWORD2 | Well, I suppose I may have to find out.... | 23:54 |
| LINKSWORD2 | OK, good. | 23:56 |
| LINKSWORD2 | Now, claydoh if you don't mind, I have an additional question.... | 23:56 |
| claydoh | LINKSWORD2: shoot | 23:57 |
| LINKSWORD2 | Bang! | 23:57 |
| LINKSWORD2 | xD | 23:57 |
| LINKSWORD2 | I would like to change the colors of the system notifications, and if possible, do so for notices from specific programs, like Amarok. | 23:57 |
| claydoh | thats all in whatever plasma theme you use iirc | 23:58 |
| LINKSWORD2 | Uh.... ???? | 23:58 |
| claydoh | I don't know a way to change just the notifications | 23:59 |
