[02:55] <ionite> anyone here? can help me upgrade to 4.7?
[02:58] <U238Willy> kde 4.7? sure... follow the instructions amarok has listed here for upgrading to 2.4 -> http://amarok.kde.org/wiki/Download:Kubuntu
[02:58] <U238Willy> this will make things exciting (read possibly unstable)
[03:00] <U238Willy> try the update/upgrade outside of the cli by using the kpackage(manager?) whatever it's called.
[03:01] <U238Willy> sometimes apt-get will hold back items that the gui updater seems to set in motion.
[03:02] <U238Willy> gotta go.. but have fun.
[03:14] <ionite> anyone here? can help me upgrade to 4.7?

[08:40] <naftilos76> hi i cannot see the temperature of the CPU. I have the usual plasmoid on my desktop which shows mem, cpu, hd etc one under another. However the temperature does not give me any feedback. Can it be that the controller of the temperature is not supported?
[08:42] <James147> naftilos76: is lm-sensors install ?
[08:45] <naftilos76> James147: i have just installed it and i cannot see any difference in the plasmoid. I started the temp view but it is blank. When choosing properties of temp, i see no items in the list!
[08:45] <naftilos76> is it a konsole tool?
[08:45] <James147> naftilos76: did you readd the widget? (or logout and back in?)
[08:46] <naftilos76> no , let me log out and back in....
[08:49] <naftilos76> James147: hi again, i still see no sensors available for cpu temperature. Is restarting mypc going to help?
[08:49] <James147> naftilos76: doupt it
[08:49] <naftilos76> me too
[08:50] <James147> as root run "sensors-detect"
[08:53] <NSQ> hey guys, is there a bug in kubuntu 11.4 with the nvidia driver install? i cant install the driver, if i do so (with the restricted driver thing) kubuntu installs it, but it says, it's not under use after i restart
[08:53] <NSQ> it worked fine with suse, using 1click install
[08:57] <James147> NSQ: how did you install it?
[08:59] <NSQ> James147: i used "additional drivers" (my kde is in german, but it should say something like that in english) from the application>system menu
[09:00] <James147> NSQ: then it should be used after a reboot... try running "sudo nvidia-xconfig"
[09:01] <NSQ> James147: i did that too, then nothing works, it hangs up during boot, something like "couldnt load nvidia module"
[09:01] <NSQ> James147: so i deleted xorg.conf, and i can boot again now
[09:01] <NSQ> it's weird.
[09:02] <James147> yeah ^^ you tried reinstalling the driver (sudo apt-get install --reinstall nvidia-current)
[09:03] <NSQ> James147: going to try that, 1sec
[09:21] <metin> hi there
[09:21] <metin> anyone here
[09:35] <ussher_> when im dragging a window around between 2 monitors and i hit the top edge i get double white lines around both screens and window wants to maximize.  If i hit just the left or the right the double white lines want to set the window size to half width.  What is this called?  and is there any way to adjust the size of the half width white lines?
[09:36] <ussher_> as my left monitor is a different width than my right monitor.  It would be nice for left/right to be the full width of either monitor.
[09:44] <NSQ> James147: okay, i tryed all that for another time, failed .. now i thought i install the nvidia driver from the website, without this thing
[09:44] <NSQ> James147: now it tells me, now "kernel-source" is installed, but there is no kernel-source for my kernel, only a nvidia-kernel-source thing
[09:45] <NSQ> james1479: and if i click install on this nvidia-kernel-source thing, it wants to install nvidia-current with it (which is not working) ..
[09:46] <James147> NSQ: hmm, what graphics card do you have?
[09:46] <NSQ> James147: nvidia geforce 425m
[09:47] <NSQ> this is driving me crazy, it worked in suse, it worked in ubuntu 10.04 ... but not in kubuntu 11.4
[09:48] <James147> NSQ: ^^ yeah, I found the mobile cards to sometimes just not work depending on the various versions of things :(
[09:48] <James147> (that is the mobile nvida ones)
[09:48] <James147> ^^ there any reason you cant use the open drivers?
[09:48] <NSQ> gaming.
[09:49] <NSQ> i have really bad fps with the open drivers :P
[09:49] <NSQ> James147: and i have a clan war in like 6 hours, so i guess i need to install another distro if i cant fix it in time :(
[09:51] <NSQ> i was like "yeah, switch to some debian related distro, because yast is shit", and now i end up with this :/
[09:52] <NSQ> i guess im buying some cd's now and switching to fedora, but thank you for your help James147 <3
[09:52] <James147> NSQ: you could try an older version of kubuntu
[09:54] <NSQ> James147: is it possible that that bug only occurs in kubuntu? because i know some guys having no trouble installing nvidia drivers in ubuntu (one guy even has a geforce 425m)
[09:55] <James147> NSQ: possibly... could just be related to the version of the packages in 11.04
[09:56] <NSQ> why do i had to uninstall my fully working suse anyways :D .. bad idea
[12:05] <lerit_> hi
[12:24] <bittin> Somone wants a Mac LC?
[12:45] <lagerimsi> hi - got a problem using kmail with mailinglist
[12:46] <lagerimsi> it sends a message back and it's not in the sent or trash or spam
[12:46] <lagerimsi> any ideas
[12:47] <lagerimsi> updated to the newest kde in the ppa-reposizories
[12:49] <lagerimsi> please help - every mail from the mailinglist is sent back (or anywhere else - don't know) and i can't get any mail from the list
[12:57] <lagerimsi> went on #kontact -channel to discuss this preoblem sorry guys
[13:19] <BluesKaj> Hey all
[13:20] <OerHeks> hey BluesKaj
[13:22] <BluesKaj> hi OerHeks
[13:23] <Ddpbf> hi BluesKaj
[13:23] <BluesKaj> hi Ddpbf
[13:25] <BluesKaj> coffeee, coffee, coffee!
[13:26] <OerHeks> i am so sorry, i only have espresso available..
[13:27] <BluesKaj> too strong ..don't need to race, just a good pace is fine  :)
[13:31] <BluesKaj> found something odd with my audio output ..if I choose stereo tracks option within vlc while it's playing a movie , it outputs an analog signal thru the line out , otherwise line out has no output at all
[13:35] <BluesKaj> my soundcard is set for spdif / coax digital out and analog line out , but there's usually no sound output from the lineout . I've been trying to find a method have both digital and analog out simultaneously , but so far no luck withe exception of the vlc option which isn't available on all media
[13:42] <ionite> what is the difference between LTS 10.4 and 11.04?
[13:45] <BluesKaj> !LTS | ionite
[13:46] <ionite> BluesKaj: which is more stable and less buggy?
[13:47] <BluesKaj> ionite, do some research on ubuntu.com about LTS ...I'm sure you'll find what want to know
[13:48] <ionite> BluesKaj: words can only mean one thing but in reality i need actual experience
[13:49] <BluesKaj> words can mean many things , depends on who and what they say :)
[13:49] <BluesKaj> !polls | ionite
[13:51] <ionite> BluesKaj: ubuntu wont compare it's product :)
[13:58] <lagerimsi> hi - back again - in #kontact they said - no support for this version :( - well try it again here
[14:01] <lagerimsi> my storry: upgraded to kde4.7 on kubuntu 11.04 - but can't say if the thing i want to decribe here is a bug/feature or something else - nor can i say wheter there's the same problm with  the original kde in kubuntu 11.04 - that's because i haven't had a mailinglist subscribed to before
[14:01] <lagerimsi> well
[14:03] <lagerimsi> decribed to a mailinglist and got always the same problem: there's a script in every mail comming dfrom that list - kmail tells me it cannot run this script - but running or stopping it deletes the mail from the server and from the local storage
[14:05] <lagerimsi> is it the mailing list i should not subscribe to? maybe it's also a feature of kmail i could just disable - but don't know how - answering to the mailinglist because of  an subscription header?
[14:08] <lagerimsi> well guys  - would be great to hear from you - problem makes me sad
[14:13] <OerHeks> lagerimsi, can you post this script, without confidentional info like pass or mail adres, on paste.ubuntu.com ?
[14:14] <BluesKaj> lagerimsi, sorry, but I gave up on kmail ages ago, due to all the problems I had trying to get to work with my ISP's mail server , so I switched to webmail (gmail)  and have had few problems since.
[14:15] <lagerimsi> well - as i said - the mails are gone :(  - so i cant post this script - used kmail for ages and always had no problem
[14:16] <OerHeks> kmail cannot run the script, because it was a mail?
[14:18] <OerHeks> sounds like a delete-script regarding your subsciption ..
[14:19] <lagerimsi> well yes - but it doesnt make any difference whether i let it run or nor - the mail is gone
[14:20] <lagerimsi> as i subribed to that
[14:20] <lagerimsi> list
[14:20] <lagerimsi> i recieved a message to confirm that subscription - is it a feature then that kmail sends out a message itself?
[14:21] <lagerimsi> guess it shouldnt do anything the user has not enabled or at least - the user can disable somewhere
[14:22] <lagerimsi> it's a mailinglist using mailman
[14:23] <OerHeks> lagerimsi, hard to say if the script is malicious, or just misunderstood.
[14:27] <lagerimsi> OerHeks > had the webinterface open - there was shortly one message i hadn't recieved before - now it's gone  - without using kmail - so this problem is provider-related i guess  - maybe they are filtering this list
[14:31] <lagerimsi> freedom of speech here - *sigh*
[14:41] <mohsen> hi there
[14:42] <mohsen> hiiiiiiiiiiii
[14:42]  * Graf_Westerholt ist verwirrt.
[14:43] <mohsen> i'm new in here
[14:43]  * Graf_Westerholt is confused.
[14:43] <genii-around> Hi mohsen. If you have some question about your Kubuntu, this is the place to ask it.
[14:44] <mohsen> tnx :)
[14:44] <szal> Graf_Westerholt: yes, you are :P
[14:44] <Graf_Westerholt> szal :D
[14:50] <mohsen> what is the linux programing? can you explain me? it's about understanding OS or anything els?
[14:51] <mohsen> :-/
[14:52] <szal> define 'linux programming'
[14:53] <mohsen> i can't define it exactly but i'm just hear about !
[14:55] <genii-around> mohsen: Programming is usually done in a language of some kind. There are simple programs you can make which are called shell scripts that use what is built-in to linux at the command line. then there are other kinds of programming like with Python or Ruby which can run right away. Then there are programs you write which need to be compiled into something usable, for that the languages are usually C or C++
[14:55] <genii-around> mohsen: You should probably look into shell scripting first.
[14:58] <mohsen> tnx.so the shell scripting is a tool for write and compiling the programs in any lang?
[14:58] <g0th> hi
[14:58] <g0th> I don't hear any sound when I play a movie with -ao pulse
[14:58] <genii-around> mohsen: Not really.
[14:58] <genii-around> !abs
[14:58] <g0th> In pavucontrol I set everything to duplex digital audio
[14:58] <g0th> iec(something)?
[14:59] <genii-around> mohsen: If you want to write more portable programs, probably to look at Python
[14:59] <g0th> In the playback tab I can see the bar going up and down for the digital audio thing
[14:59] <g0th> but no audio
[15:00] <mohsen> genii-around : tnx alot
[15:00] <genii-around> mohsen: You're welcome
[15:07] <g0th> where can I specify where pulse should send its output?
[15:14] <BluesKaj> g0th, in pavocontrol, there should be an option to send digital, usualy coax or toslink or even hdmi , analog is usally just line out
[15:14] <BluesKaj> pavucontrol
[15:15] <BluesKaj> g0th, I don't have much experience with pulseaudio since I don't need it for my setup
[15:15] <g0th> BluesKaj: hi, I remember you, I selected toslink (I think this is this iec thing)
[15:15] <g0th> I had to switch back to pulse audio because pure alsa was unuseable
[15:16] <g0th> but then all my settings were gone
[15:16] <g0th> now I hear nothing
[15:16] <g0th> anyway,  why do I see the bars under "playback" moving but I still hear no audio?
[15:17] <BluesKaj> toslink is optical out . g0th...alsamixer srill needs to be setup ...pulseaudio needs alsa to serve the audio siganl
[15:17] <BluesKaj> signal
[15:18] <g0th> alsamixer is all ok
[15:18] <g0th> mplayer -ao alsa works
[15:18] <g0th> mplayer -ao alsa:device=hw=0.3
[15:19] <g0th> I need something similar for pulse
[15:19] <BluesKaj> mplayer and pulseaudio don't do well together from my experience
[15:21] <tsimpson> g0th: mplayer -ao pulse
[15:21] <g0th> I just tried vlc with pulseaudio
[15:21] <g0th> I still hear nothing
[15:23] <BluesKaj> vlc audio needs to be setup , in tools/preferences/audio . then set options there that suit the card , dev=0 or whatever your anaolg or digital out is
[15:25] <g0th> there is nothing like that for pulseaudio
[15:25] <g0th> I just found out (again) that pulseaudio and/or kde is buggy
[15:26] <g0th> I selected analog stereo, then I hear audio, then I selected digital stereo again and the sound is still there
[15:26] <g0th> but if I reboot and login again it will not work
[15:28] <g0th> hmm vlc works now too
[15:29] <g0th> but I think this is because it is the backend of pulseaudio
[15:29] <g0th> so somehow the change back to digital was not applied correctly and now pulse and vlc think it is still analog, even though the menu shows digital
[15:29] <g0th> in fact now I can select almost anything it always works
[15:29] <g0th> even things that clearly didnt work before
[15:30] <g0th> e.g. I just deactivated audio and I still hear it ^'^
[15:32] <BluesKaj> how and where did you "deactivate audio" ?
[15:35] <g0th> in phonon, I selected profile "off" under audio hardware setup
[15:35] <g0th> in vlc there was no change at all
[15:35] <g0th> I still heard the audio perfectly fine
[15:36] <g0th> it seems that the audio hardware setup doesnt choose the current card but it sets preferences for the cards
[15:37] <g0th> if I went to internal audio and selected 5.1 surround I suddenly hear nothing again
[15:37] <g0th> even if I switch to "audio adapter" (in phonon)
[15:37] <g0th> until I select analog stereo again
[15:38] <g0th> so it seems there is no way to select the hardware, I can just change preferences for different kinds of hardware, but where do I actually choose where the audio goes?
[15:39] <BluesKaj> yeah, that's why I don't use pulse ...choose the hardware in phonon , without pulse audio you have more hw options in phonon , with pulseaudio the hw options are in pulseaudio paprefs and pavucontrol afaik
[15:40] <g0th> yes
[15:40] <g0th> I hate pulse
[15:46] <BluesKaj> if pulse has the dev=? option then make sure it's the same in vlc, as I mentioned before
[16:55] <JuJuBee> I am able to sync my ipod with my laptop using rhythmbox, but not with my desktop.  Any ideas?  Laptop running 10.10 and desktop running 11.04
[16:55] <Peace-> more answer on #ubuntu for thythmobox
[16:55] <Peace-> i guess
[17:13] <JuJuBee> Just in case anybody was wondering, you need the libgpod-cil and libgpod-cil-dev installed to sync ipod with Rhythmbox.
[17:40] <riff> what is a good virtual dvd drive package
[17:40] <riff> ?
[18:03] <genii-around> !iso
[18:09] <riff> okay typical mount point is?
[18:13] <szal> there is none, make one up
[18:14] <genii-around> riff: Traditionally /mnt  but you can also make one somewhere in /media like /media/myiso
[18:14] <genii-around> Apologies on lag, working
[18:15] <krise> Hello guys
[18:15] <krise> here is the thing
[18:16] <krise> I really like to use rekonq, but why the hell it freazes in every 10 min
[18:17] <krise> im tired of hiting F5 6 times in every hour
[18:17] <g0th> BluesKaj: pulse does not have the dev= option, pulse uses very strange names like "internal audio", "audio adapter", "hdmi digital" (even though there is no hdmi out ?!?), etc
[18:17] <riff> okay so i give the command "sudo mount -o loop \home\riff\Downloads\BT%-GNOME-64.iso /media/myiso" but it returns with "no such directory"
[18:17] <riff> what am i missing
[18:18] <krise> Can anybody tell me how to fix that problem
[18:19] <krise> my computer is almost new
[18:20] <BluesKaj> g0th, your best bet is to go to the pulseaudio website for explanations of their terms
[18:20] <g0th> riff: "\home\" ...
[18:20] <g0th> riff: use "/"
[18:21] <g0th> BluesKaj: I actually already tried that without much success
[18:21] <g0th> I'll try again
[18:21] <genii-around> riff: Did you already: sudo mkdir /media/myiso
[18:21] <riff> nope
[18:21] <riff> will do that
[18:21] <g0th> IMHO the names are just stupid, no ordinary user has any chance to understand them
[18:21] <genii-around> riff: Also you have mixed kinds of slashes there
[18:22] <g0th> linux uses "/" not "\"
[18:22] <szal> riff: also, we do NOT support BackTrack here
[18:22] <riff> my Applogizes still a good lesson in mounting cd images
[18:23] <BluesKaj> g0th, my setup so far seems to work well, gstreamer as the phonon backend , the vlc phonon plugin works for didgital signals but not analog , gstreamer does
[18:23] <g0th> gstreamer is bloated
[18:23] <g0th> anyway that is not the issue
[18:23] <stabilte> hi
[18:24] <g0th> the plugin doesnt change any of the behaviour I experienced
[18:25] <BluesKaj> g0th, you don't know that til you try it ... not the issue heh , paint  yourself into a corner then without trying differnt options ...have fun
[18:25] <g0th> I already tried all three plugins
[18:25] <g0th> I already spent over 10 hours on this
[18:26] <g0th> last time I solved it by just removing pulse, but now I am forced to use it
[18:26]  * BluesKaj shrugs ...spent weeks and weeks on my issues ...no need for pulse here
[18:27] <BluesKaj> anyway , back to tree trimming ...have too much on my plate today ...later
[18:28] <g0th> kk
[18:28] <riff> okay new return is "can't find /media/myiso in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab"
[18:29] <szal> riff: what exactly did you type?
[18:30] <riff> "sudo mount -o loop/home/riff/Downloads/BT5-GNOME-64.iso /media/myiso"
[18:30] <riff> nm i found my mistake
[18:30] <riff> thanks alot
[18:32] <riff> in "/dev" there are tty# what are those?
[18:35] <Daskreech> krise: on all sites?
[18:35] <Daskreech> What rekonq are you using?
[18:36] <krise> yes daskreech
[18:36] <Daskreech> riff: those are terminals
[18:37] <Daskreech> krise: I've found that the webkit version makes a good bit of difference with rekonq
[18:37] <Daskreech> Which KDE are you using?
[18:37] <krise> kubuntu 11.04
[18:38]  * Daskreech nods. That's the version of Kubuntu :) Did you update KDE to 4.7.0 ?
[18:38] <krise> ou sht yes, my bad
[18:38] <krise> i dont know, i think 4,6
[18:38] <riff> terminals are more or less other screens that are in comand line mode unless you iniaite x server correct?
[18:39] <szal> krise: don't guess, look -> Help -> About KDE <- in any KDE application
[18:39] <krise> 4.6.2
[18:39] <shadeslayer> riff: kinda
[18:40] <genii-around> krise: You can also just issue: rekonq -version
[18:40] <shadeslayer> riff: the virtual terminals are still there on tty's 1-7
[18:40] <shadeslayer> !tty
[18:40] <shadeslayer> riff: ^
[18:40] <krise> rekonq
[18:40] <krise> Version 0.7.0
[18:41] <krise> brand new stuff
[18:43] <riff> so if 1-7 are the virtual terminals then what are the other ttys listed?
[18:49] <genii-around> riff: Some might be Konsole or Terminal you are running from in the desktop, others might be ssh logins, others are devices like serial ports
[18:49] <riff> intresting
[18:51] <riff> how do you fidn more places to search and get packages from in package manager?
[18:58] <James147> genii-around: arnt konsole terminals in /dev/pts/
[19:00] <James147> ^^ as are ssh sessions apperently :S
[19:03] <James147> riff: generally you should stick to whats in the default repos (just adding extra repos to look for packages can leads to all sorts of headaces)... if there is something you know you need and isnt in them then look for a repo that contains it ^^ but you shouldnt really have unsuported repos enabled that you arnt using
[19:06] <riff> okay so trying to get stuff from sourceforge like a cd emulator but when i download it comes in source code i get i need to complie it but what other steps are there to plug it in as a package?
[19:09] <James147> riff: allot of stuff on sourceforge is in the repos, have you searched them first?
[19:10] <James147> riff: if you fail to find it there normally a google search for <program> + ubuntu tends to find a package or at ealst an easy way to install it
[19:11] <riff> well used the synaptic package manager made sure the sorceforge and google repo was checked but it didn't seem to come up with the stuff i wanted, is there a step i could be missing or a different way to do it?
[19:21] <mime1111> hey ppl! in fvwm-crystal, wallpaper won't change... any idea?
[19:22] <mime1111> thnx
[19:24] <stefano> I just installed kubuntu but every time I change resolution to restart the initial resolution is, how can I fix this?
[19:24] <mime1111> hey ppl! in fvwm-crystal, wallpaper won't change, clicking the build in menu... any idea?
[19:25] <mime1111> stefano maybe in your nvidia or ati graphic manager
[19:26] <stefano> i'm use Kde menager
[19:26] <stefano> my graphic card is nvida
[19:26] <stefano> nvidia
[19:26] <mime1111> in konsole nvidia
[19:26] <mime1111> well, wait
[19:27] <mime1111> do u have nvi or ati?
[19:28] <stefano> nvidia
[19:28] <mime1111> if u use nvidia try nvidia-sttings in konsole
[19:28] <mime1111> nvidia-settings
[19:28] <mime1111> hey ppl! in fvwm-crystal, wallpaper won't change, clicking the build in menu... any idea?
[19:28] <stefano> not install nvidia-settings
[19:28] <stefano> :<
[19:28] <James147> whats fvwm-crystal?
[19:29] <BluesKaj> mime1111, change wallpaper by right clicking on the desktop , desktop settings , open a file with images or get new wallpapers
[19:29] <mime1111> maybe it is a good option, u will use most of ur graphic card
[19:29] <mime1111> a window manager
[19:30] <James147> stefano: you can install the closed drivers by launching "Addition Drivers" from the menu (or alt+f2)
[19:30] <mime1111> right click in crystal just opens term
[19:30] <mime1111> :OOO)
[19:30] <James147> mime1111: this isent really the channel for other window managers ^^
[19:30] <mime1111> yes, in kde there is an option that selects your card, search it stefano
[19:30] <mime1111> ok
[19:30] <mime1111> cya then
[19:31] <mime1111> cya guuuy! freedom is here!
[19:35]  * BluesKaj thought fvwm was a wallpaper
[19:35] <BluesKaj> heh:)
[19:37] <James147> BluesKaj: i am guessing its a window manager since he said 'in' and it ends in wm :)
[19:37] <BluesKaj> yup
[19:37] <James147> (and he said it was)
[19:37] <BluesKaj> with semi transparent effects
[19:39] <BluesKaj> yeah , he did much later , while i was searching for something else
[19:39] <James147> BluesKaj: thats why i asked me :)
[19:44] <dav> hi
[19:44] <dav> i need little help
[19:44] <James147> !help | dav
[19:45] <dav> i can't play flash video on browser (flash plugin is installed)
[19:46] <mauser1891> @dav   I remove plugin then install Chrome Browser
[19:47] <dav> i use firefox
[19:47] <James147> dav: try reinstalling flash: "sudo apt-get install --reinstall flashplugin-installer"
[19:48] <Unit193> Did you also restart FF?
[19:48] <James147> (and tehn restart firefox)  :)
[19:50] <dav> James147, it works.! Thanks!
[20:17] <jee_> hello
[20:18] <BarkingFish> hello jee_ :) Anything we can help you with?
[20:19] <jee_> Yes, i've two questions
[20:19] <BarkingFish> ok, fire away and we'll try and sort them for you.
[20:20] <jee_> firstly, I've got a 32 Go USB key and was surprised to hear that my father bought it very cheap in congo
[20:21] <jee_> but when installing kubuntu, the computer detected the key as a 34,4 Go key and say it couldn't install kubuntu
[20:21] <jee_> I don(t remember the message text
[20:22] <BarkingFish> you have the ISO burned onto the key?
[20:22] <James147> (or are you trying to install kubuntu on the key)?
[20:23] <jee_> secondly I tried tu use it using kubuntu, the key is detectet as a 28,2 Go key and when trying to mount it says it's impossible
[20:23] <jee_> it's a rexton USB key
[20:23] <James147> jee_: ^^ that size sounds more likly :)
[20:23] <jee_> no, kingston, sorry
[20:23] <BarkingFish> jee_, the figures quoted when you buy usb storage are never exactly right.
[20:24] <jee_> yes I know it
[20:24] <BarkingFish> My 500GB external USB hard disk detect as 486.9GB
[20:24] <James147> BarkingFish: they are always right :) just in the wrong scale
[20:24] <jee_> yes it's because of the 1024 or 1000
[20:24] <jee_> kibi or kilo
[20:25] <James147> BarkingFish: the difference is binary vs decimal scale  (is 1024 vs 1000 when going up a size)
[20:25] <BarkingFish> do you know what the file system of the USB stick is?  It's likely NTFS if it's that big, I don't think FAT can cope above 4GB
[20:25] <jee_> I thing it was ntfs
[20:25] <BarkingFish> let me check something :)
[20:26] <BarkingFish> James147, do you know if kubuntu needs any particular file system tools installing to handle NTFS partitions?
[20:26] <James147> BarkingFish: for reading I dont think so
[20:26] <BarkingFish> hm
[20:27] <jee_> using kparted it's a 32 Go USB key
[20:27] <James147> though ""ntfs-config" wouldnt hurt :)
[20:28] <BarkingFish> actually looking at kpackagekit, there's a couple which might be worth a try James147
[20:28] <jee_> it say (in french but i'll try to traduce) that he can't find a table of partition
[20:28] <James147> jee_: is it one like this: http://www.pixmania.co.uk/uk/uk/2613064/art/kingston/go-datatraveler-400-32gb.html?srcid=867&key=Z0l8d0FrOraJdY90DzsDVHpKFS5YQoa5HekUMFFgYU54cBUjbOTaLYh2ADEGVSkbQnZfXQ==#pix-review
[20:28] <James147> ?
[20:28] <BarkingFish> jee_, - can you try installing a couple of files for me, they may be what you need.
[20:29] <jee_> not exactly
[20:29] <jee_> like this but seems so
[20:29] <BarkingFish> can you try to install libntfs-3g79 , libntfs10 , ntfs-3g and ntfsprogs please?
[20:29] <jee_> yes, what files
[20:30] <BarkingFish> don't worry if it says you already have them, but if you don't, they may be of help.
[20:30] <James147> BarkingFish: ntfs-config should pull them all
[20:30] <BarkingFish> good point, they're all deps aren't they? :)
[20:30] <James147> jee_: install "ntfs-config" rather then what BarkingFish said :)
[20:30] <BarkingFish> jee_, scratch that.  Can you try sudo apt-get install ntfs-config ?
[20:31] <jee_> are already installed
[20:31] <James147> jee_: then it dosnt matter :) as long as you ahve tnfs-config
[20:31] <jee_> ot ntfs-config
[20:31] <jee_> wait
[20:33] <jee_> nothing has changed
[20:33] <jee_> I can read the 100 Go partition which has windows on my computer
[20:34] <jee_> so I can read ntfs no?
[20:34] <James147> jee_: http://the-gadgeteer.com/2010/05/28/kingston-datatraveler-locker-usb-flash-drive-review/   ^^
[20:34] <James147> jee_: if it is one of them you might be out of luck
[20:34]  * James147 grumbles about encrypting flash drives through ahrdware
[20:35] <BarkingFish> James147, would erasing and recreating the entire NTFS partition remove the encryption without screwing the key?
[20:36] <James147> BarkingFish: pffft... i have no idea but it could just distroy the disk
[20:36] <BarkingFish> yeah, that's the problem.
[20:36] <James147> or do nothing at all
[20:36] <jee_> it's this one http://www.customusbdisk.com/kingston-datatraveler-101-usb-flash-drive-p-595.html
[20:36] <James147> I dont have any experiance with encrypted flash drives so i cannot say... (and I bet every implmentation is different and will act differently)
[20:37] <BarkingFish> It's a choice between not being able to use the disk by borking it beyond logical recognition, or winding up with a disc on which nothing has altered and never will.
[20:37] <jee_> so my usb is encrypted?
[20:37] <BarkingFish> most possibly, jee_
[20:38] <James147> jee_: ^^ if its the one you linked then maby not
[20:38] <jee_> yes, it's this one but 32 Go
[20:38] <James147> (though if it is then I have no clue why its not working)
[20:39] <James147> jee_: does it work in windows? and if so dose it need a password (or extra drivers)?
[20:39] <jee_> Yes it work on windows
[20:39] <jee_> yes, finally, it should be a problem of drivers
[20:40] <James147> jee_: is that a yes it needs a password?
[20:40] <jee_> no
[20:40] <jee_> It don't need any password
[20:40] <jee_> so It isn't encrypted no?
[20:41] <James147> jee_: douptful if it dosnt ask for a password before you can acces the files
[20:41] <jee_> ok
[20:41] <jee_> so the problem is surely a problem of drivers, it don't matter a lot
[20:42] <jee_> but I've got another bigger problem
[20:42] <jee_> my coputer has a nvidia GEFORCE GT540M
[20:42] <James147> jee_: not sure about that... ^^ (have never seen any drivers for flash drives in linux that arnt already built into the kernel)
[20:43] <jee_> and when installing additionnal driver nothing's workng
[20:43] <jee_> no 3D
[20:43] <James147> jee_: define nothing is working
[20:43] <James147> :)
[20:44] <jee_> and when not installed 3D is working well but can not make games like trine work
[20:44] <jee_> trine from the humble frozenbyte bumble
[20:45] <jee_> when installing the driver from the official website of nvidia: no x interface and the error is: no screens found
[20:45] <jee_> ...
[20:45] <DaemonFC> Trine should actually work without the proprietary drivers
[20:45] <jee_> not for me
[20:45] <DaemonFC> for some reason it claims to need GLSL 1.30 shaders
[20:45] <DaemonFC> older revisions didn't
[20:46] <jee_> and I've got 4Go RAM and an intel i3 processor
[20:46] <DaemonFC> if you can find an older revision of it somewhere it will work
[20:46] <DaemonFC> but they claim to need features it doesn't actually use
[20:46] <DaemonFC> and crash the game now if you don't have them
[20:47] <jee_> wait, so you older revision of trine should work but not recent?
[20:47] <DaemonFC> that's what I've found
[20:48] <DaemonFC> they've revised it a few times on the humble download page
[20:48] <jee_> the problem is that I can only get it from the frozenbyte website
[20:48] <DaemonFC> this needs shader model 3 error is bogus
[20:49] <jee_> ok, but elsewhere do you know what is wrong with nvidia drivers
[20:49] <jee_> ?
[20:49] <jee_> or is it my screen resolution (1366X768 or something like that)
[20:51] <DaemonFC> I don't use Nvidia hardware on anything :)
[20:53] <jee_> really Oo?
[20:53] <jee_> you use freeware drivers or not graphic card
[20:55] <jee_> ok, don't matter
[20:55] <jee_> I've just another problem
[20:55] <jee_> I want to install games from playdeb
[20:56] <jee_> http://www.playdeb.net/software/Urban%20Terror
[20:57] <jee_> oh, I just forgot tu to sudo apt-get update
[20:58] <jee_> sorry
[21:08] <dav> 2nd question: how to visualize correct names and no labels in xsensors? (ex CPU fan speed and not fan1...)
[21:29] <ActionParsnip> hi guys, is there a KDE app for notes which connects to tomboy notes?
[21:30] <ActionParsnip> i installed tomboy notes but it seems hung up on me having firefox installed and it doesn't seem to respect the default browser which is set in KDE. Can anyone recommend a client
[23:18] <giulia> hello. How can I make KDE automatically connect on the Internet ? I have a wifi connexion, and it sucks that they ask me the password each time. Any idea ?
[23:18] <giulia> I know, I just have changed desktop environment
[23:33] <DasKreecH> giulia: Tell it to remember the password?
[23:45] <giulia> hello. Any mean on how can I automatically connect on wifi when on Kubuntu ? I have 11.04 version. Thanks in advance
