| clashingwave | SIR_Taco_ Yes still here | 00:20 |
| SIR_Taco_ | ok, and is your user part of the sambashare group? | 00:20 |
| clashingwave | Yes sir it is | 00:21 |
| SIR_Taco_ | is the directory mounted? ie, you can get a listing? | 00:21 |
| clashingwave | Yes I can get a listing | 00:22 |
| SIR_Taco_ | and with the same user you can't move/change files in the mount? | 00:22 |

| AlexZion | hi all...., there is some good GUI to manage iptables in Kubuntu ? | 00:43 |
| RKyle | What is good text editor that can be used from the terminal, I tried using 'kate file" but it didn't work. | 01:22 |
| KimLaroux | RKyle, I like vim | 01:23 |
| KimLaroux | but you might want to read a short tutorial before you begin, as the controls are weird at first | 01:24 |
| KimLaroux | but once you know them, it's quite easy to use | 01:24 |
| ArchangelSe7en | nano is simpler I think | 01:26 |
| KimLaroux | never tried | 01:27 |
| RKyle | I want an outside text editor or how do you select all via nano. | 01:27 |
| RKyle | Like regular Ubuntu has gedit. | 01:31 |
| KimLaroux | I just tried using kate from the terminal and it seems to work | 01:31 |
| ArchangelSe7en | gedit has a GUI | 01:32 |
| ArchangelSe7en | donnow what you're looking for exactly | 01:32 |
| KimLaroux | RKyle, what do you need to select all for? | 01:33 |
| RKyle | Kate doesn't work for me. | 01:35 |
| RKyle | And I need to modify something as root and I need to delete the entire source. | 01:35 |
| RKyle | Can you select all text via vim? | 01:38 |
| ArchangelSe7en | kate doesnt "work" | 01:40 |
| ArchangelSe7en | what ya mean ? | 01:40 |
| RKyle | No protocol specified | 01:45 |
| KimLaroux | what do you mean by selecting text? | 01:46 |
| RKyle | I have Kate and I installed gedit and that doesn't work eather. | 01:46 |
| KimLaroux | you can select text un a terminal, if all you want is copy it | 01:46 |
| RKyle | Highlighting text to mass delete. | 01:46 |
| KimLaroux | I'd be surprised if you could do that within a terminal | 01:48 |
| KimLaroux | maybe you should take a deeper look at why kate doesn't work, or just look for another simple text editor | 01:49 |
| RKyle | I'm new to Kubuntu so I didn't know if Kate would work in the first place. | 01:53 |
| RKyle | But yeah I'll look into it. | 01:53 |

| Arv3n | Is it worth it upgrading to 4.7? Is it better to just stay with the default in 11.04? | 05:49 |
| valorie | I like 4.7 a lot | 05:50 |
| Arv3n | Is it faster? | 05:50 |
| Arv3n | The only thing I see that I may like is the revised Dolphin interface. | 05:50 |
| valorie | not that I notice | 05:51 |
| Arv3n | I'm also worried about getting security updates with the backport ppa. | 05:51 |
| valorie | my headphone jack works again | 05:51 |
| Arv3n | and any other issues. i want very little hassle. | 05:51 |
| valorie | the kub. devels do excellent packaging | 05:51 |
| Arv3n | Now, that said, I am a pretty experienced user so a little messing around is ok but I don't want to spend hours fixing stuff. | 05:51 |
| valorie | I've spent zero minutes fixing stuff | 05:52 |
| Arv3n | OK. | 05:52 |
| Arv3n | So, do I still get security updates? | 05:52 |
| valorie | although my netbook (32 bit Atom) has a plasma problem | 05:52 |
| valorie | but maybe the latest updates fix that too | 05:52 |
| valorie | yes | 05:52 |
| Arv3n | ok | 05:52 |
| Arv3n | so you think i should just do it? | 05:52 |
| valorie | you aren't deleting repositories, you are merely adding one | 05:53 |
| Arv3n | I mean if it's mostly trouble-free, and I still get security updates. I don't see why not | 05:53 |
| Arv3n | I mean, are there any downsides? | 05:53 |
| valorie | I've heard of very few problems | 05:53 |
| valorie | and those mostly seemed to be self-inflicted | 05:53 |
| valorie | that said, it is a lot of updates, so I'd be sure to be on a good network connection | 05:54 |
| Arv3n | i am. | 05:54 |
| Arv3n | i pay too much for my damn internet connection. | 05:54 |
| valorie | that's the usual problem | 05:54 |
| valorie | disconnect during the process | 05:54 |
| Arv3n | guess ill go ahead and do it then. thanks | 05:55 |
| Shirakawasuna | more info? I tried reinstalling nvidia-common and nvidia-current and got this: forcing reinstallation of alternative /usr/lib/nvidia-current/ld.so.conf because link group gl_conf is broken | 06:02 |
| valorie | !nvidia | 06:02 |
| ubottu | For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VideoDriverHowto | 06:02 |
| valorie | def. sounds like something is broken...... | 06:02 |
| Shirakawasuna | interesting | 06:04 |
| Shirakawasuna | that file, /usr/lib/nvidia-current/ld.so.conf has a modified date of 2011-04-20 | 06:05 |
| Shirakawasuna | which is well before I installed, so it's from the insallation disc | 06:05 |
| Shirakawasuna | I'm going to remove nvidia and reboot... then reinstall it | 06:05 |
| Shirakawasuna | brb | 06:05 |
| Shirakawasuna | no luck. It did properly reinstall this time, with no error message, and actually prompted the recreation of the initrd | 06:12 |
| Shirakawasuna | but still says the proprietary driver isn't active, despite nvidia being loaded and opengl stuff (mostly) working | 06:13 |
| valorie | well, I think you need developer help, and if none have spoken up here, I guess the thing to do is post to either the forum or the list | 06:14 |
| valorie | depending on what you prefer | 06:15 |
| e_t_ | Shirakawasuna: did you use nvidia-xconfig ? | 06:15 |
| Shirakawasuna | e_t_: no | 06:15 |
| Shirakawasuna | though I do have a xorg.conf (minimal) to enable changing screen brightness | 06:15 |
| e_t_ | Shirakawasuna: You need to do that. It will create an Xorg.conf file which instructs the computer to actually use the proprietary driver. | 06:15 |
| Shirakawasuna | strange. nvidia seems to be very much in use, but I'll give it a shot | 06:16 |
| e_t_ | The semi-catch is that X cannot be running when you run nvidia-xconfig. In the past, I've rebooted, selected recovery mode from GRUB, and run nvidia-xconfig from the root prompt. | 06:17 |
| Shirakawasuna | no worries, I know very well how to kill X ;) | 06:18 |
| Shirakawasuna | though I just ran nvidia-xconfig and it did generate a crappy-looking xorg.conf | 06:18 |
| Shirakawasuna | brb to see if it fails less when X isn't running | 06:18 |
| e_t_ | Maybe they've changed it. It's been a while since I've had an nvidia card. Back then, it would just exit if X was running. | 06:19 |
| Shirakawasuna | nope, still claims that the proprietary driver isn't in use (but really it is...) | 06:23 |
| e_t_ | Did you reboot or just start X again? | 06:29 |
| Shirakawasuna | just started X again | 06:32 |
| Shirakawasuna | my new guess is to let the silly 'additional drives' dialog do its 'remove' option, then I'll install, then restart | 06:32 |

| Shirakawasuna | rebooting | 06:34 |

| e_t_ | Do you have 3D effects and/or transparency? | 06:38 |
| Shirakawasuna | yup | 06:38 |
| Shirakawasuna | everything seems fine, I was just trying to figure out why some games were failing | 06:38 |
| e_t_ | Then don't worry what Jockey says. Jockey isn't all that smart. | 06:39 |
| Shirakawasuna | I suspect it's the games themselves and some incompatibility with nvidia | 06:39 |
| Shirakawasuna | (legends and antyetitmoves... for andyetitmoves, it's a known issue) | 06:39 |
| e_t_ | Do you get any sort of error message from the games? | 06:39 |
| Shirakawasuna | yup | 06:39 |
| e_t_ | Are these Win games in Wine? | 06:40 |
| Shirakawasuna | "Could not find a compatible OpenGL display resolution. Please check your driver configuration. (Error: Couldn't find matching GLX visual) | 06:40 |
| Shirakawasuna | no, these are native linux games | 06:40 |
| e_t_ | Do these games have configuration files? If the error is talking about resolution, you may try manually specifying the correct resolution. | 06:42 |
| Shirakawasuna | trying to find one that's parseable | 06:44 |
| Shirakawasuna | there doesn't seem to even be a man page ; | 06:44 |
| Shirakawasuna | ;) | 06:44 |
| Shirakawasuna | nor a 'windowed mode' command | 06:44 |
| e_t_ | is there a --help ? | 06:45 |
| Shirakawasuna | nope | 06:47 |
| Shirakawasuna | I think this game doesn't want me to play it :) | 06:47 |
| well_laid_lawn | it might need the sgl libraries like (I think it was) cube | 06:48 |
| Shirakawasuna | I'm not finding much on sgl | 06:50 |
| e_t_ | Do you mean SDL ? | 06:51 |
| Shirakawasuna | I think it does involve sdl at some point | 06:51 |
| Shirakawasuna | I have the packages it supposedly required, though: sdl, sdl-mixer, and sdl-image | 06:52 |
| e_t_ | Are you building from source? | 06:55 |
| Shirakawasuna | no, I'm using 'playdeb' | 06:55 |
| Shirakawasuna | I'll see if their 'scripted installer' works, rather than the deb | 06:56 |

| === kloeri_ is now known as kloeri | ||
| p896gbm | Shirakawasuna: is gsynaptics supposed to provide something other than gpointing-device-settings? | 07:23 |
| p896gbm | that utility doesn't allow configuring sensitivity for me | 07:23 |
| p896gbm | it just offers options for middle button emulation and wheel emulation | 07:24 |
| Guest43314 | Can KDE support three screens? | 07:24 |
| keithzg | It's not a matter of sensitivity, actually, that's part of the problem in looking for such a solution | 07:24 |
| p896gbm | what do you mean keithzg? | 07:24 |
| keithzg | Well p896gbm, I mean that it's a matter of resolution; not a terribly important distinction in normal life, but important for finding the right things to modify/override :) | 07:25 |
| p896gbm | ok | 07:25 |
| keithzg | See for example http://www.kde-forum.org/artikel/17446/mouse-speed-sensivity.html | 07:25 |
| e_t_ | Guest43314: Can your video card support three screens? | 07:25 |
| p896gbm | how do i change my mouse resolution? | 07:25 |
| Guest43314 | It has HDMI input and VGA | 07:26 |
| Shirakawasuna | well, there's a bunch of crap that can be tweaked with synclient, p896gbm. gsynaptics should give you many of those options... | 07:27 |
| e_t_ | Guest43314: That's two. Where would you plug in this third screen? | 07:28 |
| Guest43314 | Good point. | 07:28 |
| keithzg | the link I posted has one example, http://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=66&t=90208 has another approach (tailored to slowing down though, not sure if that's what you're looking for p896gbm) | 07:28 |
| Guest43314 | Anyone have any good wisdom or stories to share? | 07:29 |
| p896gbm | Shirakawasuna: gsynaptics doesn't seem to be a program. i installed the gsynaptics package but there's no gsynaptics binary to run | 07:29 |
| p896gbm | there's also no man page for it | 07:29 |
| keithzg | Isn't synaptics exclusively for touchpads? | 07:29 |
| p896gbm | according to apt-cache, it's just a link to gpointing-device-settings | 07:29 |
| p896gbm | and that program doesn't allow configuring sensitivity/resolution | 07:30 |
| p896gbm | yeah it's probably for touchpads, since it talks about wheel and middle button emulation | 07:30 |
| keithzg | do neither of my links work for ya? | 07:30 |
| Shirakawasuna | ah | 07:30 |
| Shirakawasuna | it's a transitional package | 07:30 |
| Shirakawasuna | I wonder what I used... | 07:30 |
| Shirakawasuna | maybe it was just gpointing-device-settings | 07:31 |
| keithzg | I know they're not the easy way around, heh, but both KDE forums links are to discussions with solutions for changing the speed of mice other than through acceleration. | 07:31 |
| Guest43314 | How do I modify the source code of the KDE? | 07:31 |
| Guest43314 | I want to redesign and simplify some aspects of the calendar program. | 07:32 |
| e_t_ | Guest43314: http://community.kde.org/Getinvolved/development | 07:32 |
| p896gbm | keithzg: the first link doesn't work, setx only allows configuring acceleration and threshold | 07:33 |
| p896gbm | the rest of the workarounds in both links involve editing xorg.conf | 07:33 |
| Guest43314 | e_t_ what knowledge would I need? | 07:33 |
| Guest43314 | I know nothing of coding | 07:33 |
| p896gbm | not sure how i can tweak it to where i like if i have to restart x each time... | 07:33 |
| Guest43314 | print "hello world" | 07:33 |
| Guest43314 | ? | 07:33 |
| keithzg | p896gbm just start a second X session, restart THAT one when you're tweaking. Is it speeding up or slowing down that you're trying to do? Because setting a 0 threshold and high acceleration would do it. | 07:34 |
| keithzg | For speeding up, that is. | 07:34 |
| Shirakawasuna | p896gbm: if you want some direct and specific tweaking, try out synclient | 07:35 |
| Shirakawasuna | p896gbm: keep in mind that I'm pretty sure your settings there will be temporary - you'll need to write them to a xorg.conf, a script, or find another tool to set them once you find what parameter you want to change | 07:35 |
| Shirakawasuna | just typing 'synclient' will give you a lot of options | 07:36 |
| keithzg | Wait, I'm confused, is it a mouse or a touchpad we're talking about? | 07:36 |
| e_t_ | Guest43314: C and C++ for a start. Then Qt APIs and a bunch of other stuff. KDE is a HUGE code base. If you want to get started, try joining #kde-devel | 07:36 |
| Shirakawasuna | I thought it was a touchpad | 07:36 |
| Shirakawasuna | is it just a mouse? | 07:36 |
| === fishwithapipe is now known as f|shy | ||
| keithzg | heh I thought it was a mouse, I guess that's an important question to answer now haha | 07:37 |
| Shirakawasuna | hmm, yeah it's probably a mouse | 07:37 |
| Guest43314 | How do you write secure code? How do we know the system is not compromised upon the altar of "naahtsekh?" | 07:37 |
| Shirakawasuna | I have no idea how to configure those, I just change acceleration and min/max speed and I'm happy | 07:37 |
| Guest43314 | Does SE linux have back doors? | 07:38 |
| keithzg | Is obvious troll obvious? | 07:38 |
| p896gbm | keithzg Shirakawasuna: it's just a mouse, logitech g5 | 07:38 |
| e_t_ | Guest43314: SE Linux was written by the NSA for their own use. I'm guessing it does not have security holes, or they're patched quickly. | 07:39 |
| Guest43314 | I want to know how to apply this technology to solving real world problems, like food and energy security | 07:39 |
| Guest43314 | I want to make gardening robots | 07:39 |
| keithzg | Wait . . . the G5? Doesn't that have the onboard buttons for changing resolution? haha | 07:39 |
| keithzg | I know the MX518 does, that's what I have and it was the direct predecessor. | 07:40 |
| keithzg | Maybe that's why it's never even occurred to me. | 07:40 |
| Shirakawasuna | I guess I don't know what the question is, if it can't be solved with acceleration + min/max speed | 07:41 |
| keithzg | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logitech_G5#Features_2 "Tracking Resolution: 400-2000 dpi (user selectable with up to 5 presets actively available using the + and - buttons on the top of the mouse)" | 07:41 |
| Shirakawasuna | are you experiencing jumpiness? | 07:41 |
| e_t_ | Guest43314: Moving from "I know nothing of coding" to "I want to make gardening robots" is a long journey. I suggest an introduction to programming course at your local community/junior college. P.S. This may be a conversation better moved to #kubuntu-offtopic since it is not about support. | 07:42 |
| Guest43314 | Thank you for your time. | 07:42 |
| keithzg | p896gbm you don't even have to bother with changing the speed, ie. resolution, at the level of KDE, much less xorg.conf or whatnot, your mouse has buttons for it :) | 07:42 |
| * keithzg feels an unjustified sense of accomplishment | 07:43 | |
| Shirakawasuna | keithzg: you are a god among men | 07:45 |
| p896gbm | keithzg: the buttons only allow 3 levels, far too coarse | 07:49 |
| p896gbm | i want it somewhere between the max and middle | 07:49 |
| p896gbm | the high sensitivity is double the default | 07:49 |
| keithzg | Well then, that's a good start, at least with the older firmware the G5 was 2000, 800 and 400. You at least know the general resolution to aim for then. | 07:54 |
| keithzg | Have you tried lomoco? (commandline program for controlling Logitech mice) | 07:58 |

| ironfroggy | can anyone tell me what would cause my connected headset to become very low? i used to hear fine, but now at 100% i can hardly hear anything. | 13:15 |
| EvilRoey | hello ironfroggy | 13:15 |
| EvilRoey | ironfroggy: you're on another common channel yet again, cool | 13:15 |
| ironfroggy | it was fine, and then i went to adjust the volume and as soon as i touched the control it cut in half, and now i cant get it back to a normal volume. | 13:15 |
| ironfroggy | EvilRoey: i am the ever-presence of freenode, yes. | 13:16 |
| EvilRoey | :-) | 13:16 |
| EvilRoey | ah yes from #ironpython and others | 13:17 |
| EvilRoey | er, #python | 13:17 |
| ironfroggy | any idea bout my volume trouble? | 13:17 |
| BluesKaj | volume ctrls can get coated with carbon and need to be reefed back and forth to clean them sometimes . | 13:19 |
| ironfroggy | what | 13:19 |
| BluesKaj | vol ctrl contacts get coated | 13:19 |
| ironfroggy | no, this is a software issue. | 13:20 |
| ironfroggy | because i am not using hardware volume controls. | 13:20 |
| ironfroggy | hence asking here. | 13:20 |
| BluesKaj | are you sure | 13:20 |
| BluesKaj | ironfroggy, ok . check alsamixer | 13:21 |
| ironfroggy | its at 100% | 13:21 |
| ironfroggy | using pulse and all the related levels are at 100% so i can hear at all. | 13:22 |
| programming | Fresh kubuntu install, all packages up to date | 13:22 |
| programming | running gimp = segmentation fault | 13:22 |
| ironfroggy | programming: sadly a known problem! | 13:22 |
| programming | :/ | 13:23 |
| ironfroggy | go to settings and change gtk appearance from oxygen to raleigh (or the other way around) | 13:23 |
| ironfroggy | then it should work | 13:23 |

| robbiesan | Hello, everyone, good afternoon, morning or evening | 13:24 |
| BluesKaj | make sure alsamixer is at 100% as well, pulseaudio just rides on top , so it depends on the alsmixer ctrls . ironfroggy | 13:25 |
| ironfroggy | i have checked. | 13:25 |
| robbiesan | I'm using KDE 4 on a 64 acer, it is working fine, but locale won't change to dutch, | 13:26 |
| BluesKaj | well, i dropped pulseaudio and a lot of my audio problems disappeared | 13:26 |
| ironfroggy | BluesKaj: multiple sound devices. need pulseaudio to switch them properly. thanks anyway. | 13:27 |
| BluesKaj | ironfroggy, yeah, skype , mumble etc need the pa packages ...shameful | 13:27 |
| programming | what is the problem with your sound ironfroggy | 13:28 |
| ironfroggy | programming: one sound device is very quiet | 13:28 |

| neo69 | hi | 17:10 |
| neo69 | when I start my kubuntu I get a back desktop, to start a app I have to hit alt-F2. How can I fix this? | 17:11 |
| neo69 | black* | 17:12 |
| jmichaelx | if you have a black desktop, how can you use alt+f2? | 17:13 |
| neo69 | jmichaelx: if I hit alt-f2 it shows the window to insert a command | 17:15 |
| jmichaelx | neo69: but everything else is black? | 17:16 |
| neo69 | jmichaelx: yes | 17:16 |
| neo69 | jmichaelx: I can start apps using a terminal | 17:17 |
| neo69 | but have no desktop image, bars ... | 17:17 |
| jmichaelx | neo69: that is very strange | 17:18 |
| jmichaelx | neo69: do you have kubuntu-desktop installed? | 17:18 |
| neo69 | let me check | 17:18 |
| neo69 | jmichaelx: yes | 17:20 |
| jmichaelx | neo69: what kind of graphics card are you using? | 17:20 |
| neo69 | jmichaelx: how can I know that? | 17:23 |
| neo69 | its a laptop | 17:23 |
| neo69 | aspire 5720 | 17:23 |
| neo69 | isn't there some way to make kde start with the defaults? | 17:24 |
| James147 | neo69: alt+f2 and launch plasma-desktop | 17:25 |
| James147 | ^^ if nothing happens open konsole and try running it there | 17:25 |
| jmichaelx | James147: ty.... i guess it only makes sense that X is running, if he's able to start apps | 17:25 |

| neo69 | James147: going to reboot | 17:39 |
| neo69 | hi | 17:42 |
| neo69 | James147: no luck | 17:42 |
| neo69 | still black :( | 17:42 |
| James147 | neo69: could you create a new user and see if it works for them :S | 17:42 |
| neo69 | James147: ok, be right back | 17:43 |
| neo69 | James147: I already had another user, started with it and it worked ok | 17:47 |
| jmichaelx | neo69: any idea as to what could have caused the problem? | 17:48 |
| neo69 | jmichaelx: no | 17:48 |
| James147 | neo69: mv ~/.kde/share/config/plasm* ~ << that will move the plasma config files to your desktop and let plasma recreate them... should fix your problem and reset plasma to its default settings | 17:48 |
| neo69 | going to reboot | 17:50 |
| James147 | if that works you can reconfigre plasma, or try to fix the configs manually... | 17:50 |
| James147 | :p | 17:50 |
| neo69 | James147: it's working now | 17:53 |
| neo69 | James147, jmichaelx: thank you very much | 17:53 |
| jmichaelx | neo69: all the thanks go to James147, but you are still welcome :-) | 17:56 |
| neo69 | :-) | 17:56 |
| neo69 | James147: you said "mv ~/.kde..." not "cp ~/.kde", right? | 17:59 |
| James147 | yeah... cp wouldnt do anything as the configs would still be in place | 18:00 |
| James147 | neo69: need to move or delete them to cause plasma to reset its self | 18:00 |
| neo69 | James147: oh, ok | 18:01 |
| James147 | ^^ and if alls working as expected you can delete (or move somewhere else) the configs that are now in your home dir :) | 18:01 |
| neo69 | James147: thaks again | 18:01 |
| James147 | (if you dont plan on recovering any of the settings from them that is) | 18:01 |
| neo69 | didn't make many changes | 18:02 |
| neo69 | going to just delete them | 18:02 |
| James147 | neo69: fair enough :) though in general its best to keep configs for a few days incase you remember somehitng you forgot ... | 18:03 |
| neo69 | James147: yes, you are right :-) | 18:05 |

| trions | What is the command of "System Settings" program? I need to open it as sudo. "kdesu system-settings" does not work. | 19:00 |
| markit | aptitude search flashblock return nothing | 19:00 |
| Pici | markit: Isn't that a firefox extension? | 19:01 |
| markit | yes, I need to install system wide | 19:01 |
| markit | and that package does exactly what I want | 19:02 |
| markit | but can't find it :) | 19:02 |
| genii-around | markit: http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=flashblock seems to indicate it got dropped after 10.10 | 19:03 |
| markit | genii-around: damn, you are right, but googling with flashblock and "natty" I got the page I linked above | 19:04 |
| genii-around | markit: If you feel adventurous you could manually download the 10.10 deb file and install it | 19:04 |
| markit | and there seems is available... | 19:04 |
| markit | genii-around: well, I would prefer download the extension and install where is available system wide, but I've no idea | 19:04 |
| markit | and also a place where I disabled cache of firefox globally does not work anymore with FF >= 5 | 19:04 |
| markit | (I've squid for central access, so no need of local cache for every account) | 19:05 |
| markit | anyone here has ever installed an add-on globally for FF 5 in natty? :) | 19:05 |
| markit | btw, soon I hope I will need a html5 video block :) | 19:06 |
| genii-around | markit: https://launchpad.net/~mozillateam/+archive/firefox-stable PPA looks possibly good | 19:07 |
| markit | mmm interesting, but this way I will also have latest FF... could be a good idea indeed | 19:08 |
| markit | genii-around: do you think that italian lang pack "-it" is available for natty? seems not reading that list | 19:11 |
| genii-around | markit: The -it language pack is there, it's on the third page of listings https://launchpad.net/%7Emozillateam/+archive/firefox-stable/+index?batch=75&memo=150&start=150 | 19:13 |
| markit | genii-around: yes, thanks, but as far as I understand, is for 10.04 or 10.10 | 19:14 |
| genii-around | markit: The change dates on the files indicate June 2011 | 19:15 |
| markit | genii-around: forgive me, but I've # add-apt-repository ppa:mozillateam/firefox-stable, aptitude update | 19:17 |
| markit | then aptitude search flash but can't find flashblock | 19:17 |
| genii-around | markit: Darn, yes. I see now by filtering there using Natty it has only webfav package :( Apologies | 19:20 |
| genii-around | markit: It might still be worth a try to download the 10.10 .deb file from packages.ubuntu.com and see if dpkg -i packagename on it groans or not | 19:21 |
| markit | genii-around: don't worry, thanks for your help anyway | 19:21 |
| markit | I'm a bit scared having an "obsolete" package installed, is a ltsp server | 19:22 |
| markit | and probably the 10.10 version is not for ff 6 that I have in natty | 19:22 |
| markit | or in any case I forecast some troubles :) | 19:22 |
| markit | wondering the reason has been removed | 19:22 |
| markit | because maybe I can find the way to install the addon system wide, but will not be automatically updated | 19:23 |
| markit | while with the package it was | 19:23 |

| pawleeq | hello | 23:03 |
| pawleeq | I am using kubuntu 11.04 and I have problem with network management, in KDE everything works ok, but when I login into another desktop enviroment (Fluxbox, Gnome3) the network does not work. What to do? | 23:05 |
| avihay | pawleeq: can you run ifconfig from KDE and from another DE and pastebin the output? | 23:06 |
| pawleeq | avihay: mmt | 23:07 |
| avihay | should take you 5-15 min | 23:08 |
| pawleeq | avihay: here you are: http://pastebin.com/cDv0Xyzx | 23:09 |
| avihay | ok, what I see is that your wired connection tryes to find an IP but doesn't succeed, and that your wireless does succeed, that's from when it works, I guess | 23:11 |
| avihay | is the wired connection supposed to get an avahi address even though it's disconnected? | 23:12 |
| pawleeq | avihay: I dunno, I did not change any defaults | 23:13 |
| avihay | what about the output from when in another DE? | 23:14 |
| pawleeq | avihay: ok, that will take a bit longer, wait pls :) | 23:15 |
| avihay | welcome back | 23:16 |
| pawleeq | avihay: :) here is ifconfig from fluxbox :http://pastebin.com/F6Em2Ubf | 23:18 |
| avihay | ok, the fluxbox output shows you didn't recive an ip address | 23:19 |
| avihay | I'm guessing fluxbox has a network manager of some sort? if not, you either need to connect manually (every time (you can write s script or something)) or install a network manager that will work under fluxbox | 23:20 |
| pawleeq | well, before I upgraded to kde4.7 it fluxobx was working with knetworkmanager | 23:21 |
| James147 | pawleeq: knetworkmanger us deperacated... kubuntu should now use the network manager widget instead | 23:21 |
| avihay | was* | 23:21 |
| James147 | pawleeq: try the gnome network manager applet (nm-applet) in network-manager-gnome package if i remember correctly | 23:22 |
| avihay | or wicd | 23:22 |
| James147 | avihay: that would break the kde network maanger widget | 23:22 |
| avihay | I'm guessing gnome's got nicer over time | 23:22 |
| pawleeq | I already tried wicd and happenned exactly what James said | 23:23 |
| avihay | oh | 23:23 |
| pawleeq | when I launched nm-applet in gnome3, the problem was still the same | 23:23 |
| BluesKaj | or , sudo ifconfig eth0 up | 23:24 |
| avihay | from the logs, I think it's a wireless connection | 23:24 |
| avihay | err output | 23:24 |
| avihay | compare lines 24 | 23:25 |
| BluesKaj | ok sorry . sudo ifconfig wlan0 up | 23:26 |
| James147 | pawleeq: you may want to ask on #ubuntu about why nm-applet no longer works | 23:26 |
| James147 | BluesKaj: what will jsut brin the interface up... it wont connec tor anything else | 23:26 |
| pawleeq | ok, I will gie it a try | 23:26 |
| pawleeq | thanks and good night :) | 23:27 |
| James147 | (and the interface is already up if ifconfig lists iit_ | 23:27 |
| BluesKaj | then sudo dhclient wlan0 | 23:27 |
| James147 | BluesKaj: how are you ment to get a ipv4 address without associating with the ap? | 23:27 |
| BluesKaj | it tells the app to cvonnect nm , since nm isn't activated | 23:28 |
| James147 | ?? that dosnt make any sence | 23:28 |
| BluesKaj | nm is an awful app, | 23:29 |
| James147 | dhclient just sends a dhcp request to try and get an ip adress | 23:29 |
| James147 | dosnt make nm do anything | 23:29 |
| BluesKaj | yeah, I got nm to work ,with those commands , but I no longer use it...wicd for wifi.../etc/network/interfaces for static IP eth0\ | 23:31 |
| James147 | BluesKaj: no, you worked around nm to connect to a wired connection... | 23:31 |
| James147 | "ifconfig eth0 && dhclient eth0" will connect you to the network without networkmanager (assuming there is a dhcp server somewhere on the network) | 23:32 |
| BluesKaj | well, nm showed that it was connected | 23:32 |
| James147 | BluesKaj: because you where :) nm didnt connect you | 23:32 |
