[04:41] no question [04:41] Oh [04:41] so what reply [04:42] my question was how to install skype ?? [04:43] ali__: what have you tried? [04:44] kubuntu 11.4 [04:44] ali__: Most people just go to http://www.skype.com/intl/en-us/get-skype/on-your-computer/linux/ and download it [04:45] and im searching for it but i cant find it in the software center [04:45] ali__: Skype doesn't allow itself to be in the software center [04:51] ali__: Let me know if you need any help [04:51] one last problem [04:52] how to use yahoo video chat in kubuntu ?? [04:53] ali__: Hmm I'll have to check [04:54] I used to use Kopete but somethings have changed since then [04:54] And Yahoo is actually pretty good at doing that. [04:55] ali__: My eventual solution was to run Windows in a Virtualbox with Yahoo. but that does take some RAM requirements [04:55] I don't know if your computer would be up to it [04:56] i have 3.4 processor and 1gb ram [04:56] whats the soulution ?? [04:57] do you have a windows XP cd ? [04:59] dudes https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Skype [04:59] !skype [04:59] To install Skype on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Skype - To record on Skype, check: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SkypeRecordingHowto - Please use open protocols instead if you can, see !Ekiga [05:00] Ah of course [05:00] Should be interesting to see how this will work out now that Microsoft owns Skype [05:05] on 11.04, kickoff freezes (opened by clicking on the k button) for like 10 seconds [05:05] it does? it'll at least be harder to get working then [05:06] during this time i can still run things with alt-f2 [05:08] tried turning some effects off ? [05:08] i disabled all effects [05:08] but i probably need to relog for that to take effect, correct? [05:09] ali__: that was for you [05:10] i have wine but its not acess able [05:10] ali__: No windows XP cd [05:10] yes i have [05:10] win 7 [05:11] Windows XP is far better for this venture :) [05:11] buut i hate microsoft [05:12] it means u have no solution for my problem [05:12] try ekiga then [05:12] !ekiga [05:12] ekiga is an Internet telephony application included with Ubuntu, which supports the SIP and H323 protocols. Information and help at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Ekiga [05:13] ali__: I think Kopete can do Yahoo Chat but it's a bare minimum of being able to see the person [05:13] should get better but all development on it was paused to help with Telepathy [05:13] well_laid_lawn: kickoff is the right term, correct? I am just suprised I don't see anything about the problem on google [05:13] Even so if you want all the features for Yahoo Chat a seamless virtual box solution would work out the best [05:14] whats virtual box ??? how ttto use it ?? [05:14] accipter: kickoff is the name of the menu. You can switch it to another one if you don't like it/it's giving problems [05:14] accipter: I call it kickoff. it might be your graphics or something working hard in the background [05:14] !virtualbox [05:14] virtualbox is a x86 !virtualizer.

A non-free edition is available at http://virtualbox.org for most Ubuntu releases (help in #vbox) - Setup details at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VirtualBox [05:14] ali__: ^^ [05:15] ali__: It's a virtual computer so you can run a computer inside of your computer [05:16] well_laid_lawn: nepomuk is indexing somethings, but the menu takes like 10 seconds to appear whereas the alt-f2 run menu has no delay [05:16] can i get it through apt-get [05:18] ali__: read all of the information, the package is called virtualbox-ose and you will have to have a copy of windows to install onto the virtual machine [05:20] thanks alot [05:21] let me learn about virtual box details and use [05:21] thanks [05:22] ali__: you can then run windows as an application inside of Linux (and of course install any programs you want in there).

I've already did that, several times and the issue remains. [13:12] ionite, kwallet stores your passwords, now you are in manually mode, so every time you have to type it again. [13:13] OerHeks: so what should i do? [13:15] george_, are you behind a proxy ? [13:16] ionite, now you know what KDE wallet is for, i suggest reinstall kde wallet ? [13:16] OerHeks: reinstall and uninstall> [13:17] ? [13:18] ionite: It's probably better if you install and then just disable kwallet. [13:18] ionite, why did you uninstall in the first place ? [13:18] george_: why so? why can't i purge it @ terminal completely? [13:18] OerHeks: it's useless. [13:20] OerHeks: done. thanks. [13:20] OerHeks: I'm connect to a router, wich I can't configure. Besides, this is the very first time this happens, I've been updating with no trouble so far. [13:20] george_: done. thanks. [13:20] ionite, oke, have fun. [13:21] george_, i am not sure what to do now to fix this :( [13:22] OerHeks: Oh, ok.... thanks for you time. Guess I'll check again later.. [13:22] george_: what does the error actually say?

[13:37] OerHeks and James147: Now I wonder why that happened in the first place... [13:38] sometimes one bit goes wrong.

[14:44] TheLastProject: Is kipi-plugins installed? [14:45] hi everyone, has anybody succesfully transfered a big multilevel tree of folders and its' contents (emails) from kmail to evolution through an automated process/script? [14:46] That did the trick, thank you genii-around! [14:46] TheLastProject: You're welcome [15:34] Hello all. [15:36] I was formatting a drive (resizing partition) and it auto-rebooted itself. The partitioning was not done. I think there may be some data loss. Is there a way to get the drive back to know its format? The partition (NTFS) is currently unknown, per KDE Partition Manager. [15:37] hi [15:38] you could try using testdisk to identify the original partition. however, you are guaranteed to have some kind of data loss i would imagine [15:40] i have done something similar myself before, accidentally triggering a resizing process on the wrong partition that would have taken about about 3 days to process! decided to cancel it and got the original partition back with testdisk but with some data loss [15:41] my guess it thats it caches some data in the process === Guest93010 is now known as LjL-Temp === LjL-Temp is now known as Guest27309 [15:42] winut: Where can I get testdisk? [15:42] testdisk is available on gparted live and most live cd's and dvd's or you can run it form another pc on to the disk [15:43] http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/TestDisk [15:43] tbh, this has saved my balls a couple of times already, much bette rthasn [15:43] trying to recover files individually with no respect to the original mft [15:44] lucky you used ntfs, it has the mft at the beginning and also partway through the disk there is a backup also (master file table) [15:44] Thank you, winut. I wasn't finding it on the LiveCD. I'll update on the liveCD and get testdisk [15:46] Hmmm... not finding it with the repos on the LiveCD. [15:46] when you have got the partition back, you probably want to run chkdsk to fix any unreferenced files etc. thats gonna take a while tho! [15:46] http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php [15:47] sorry, try this http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/TestDisk_Livecd [15:47] also have a look at this before you get started -> http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/Data_Recovery_Examples [15:48] Nvidia driver is "activated, but not in use", how do I fix this? [15:48] draik, you also want to find out why your system auto rebooted! [15:48] it might not be wise to do this process on the same machine for that reason [15:49] maybe you have a memory or power supply, hw type issue? [15:49] It's a laptop [15:49] Lenovo [15:49] otherwise you could ruin your chance of recovery [15:50] CoJaBo, do your desktop effects work ok ? if so just ignore that statement about the driver it's aknown bug., [15:50] BluesKaj: Everything that attempts to use 3d crashes. Settings for using the second monitor do not work. [15:51] driak, doesn't matter about the brand, all pc can fail! [15:51] Very true === eyes_ is now known as EyesIsServer [15:51] maybe you could do the recovery process by plugging the hard drive of the laptop into another machine. [15:51] CoJaBo, give us an example of 3D attempts [15:51] CoJaBo: have you restarted (X) since you installed the drivers? [15:52] i would run memory test on live cd on your laptop [15:53] draik: before you consider doing anything, and make sure your laptop is also plugged into the mains! also check temperatures, maybe its overheating [15:53] if thats the only pc you have [15:55] also CoJaBo , after installing the recommended driver did you do , sudo nvidia-xconfig ? [15:58] Thanks for the help, winut [16:01] no problem, let me know how you get on and if you have further questions :-) [16:05] I shall. Thanks. o7 [16:26] hai mars la cacat [16:34] Good to see instant bans on such "funny people" [16:35] what did he say? [16:36] It's the nickname [16:36] No clue what he said [16:36] :-) [16:36] Well, anyway, g2g === yofel_ is now known as yofel === Guest27309 is now known as LjL-Temp === LjL-Temp is now known as Guest58757 [16:52] BluesKaj: Got it working now, but Compiz still doesnt run [16:53] More importantly, can anyone tell me why I cant run downloaded executables? http://pastebin.com/MFgwMu3k [16:58] CoJaBo, if you have desktop effects working then compiz is basically redundant , IMO ...desktop effects requires 3D and DR...if compiz doesn't run then blame compiz [16:59] CoJaBo: are you on a 64bit system trying to run a 32bit executable? (or the other way round) [17:00] tsimpson: Yeh, assumed it would be the correct version. Why is the error so styupid tho? Also, how do I install 64bit Firefox 3.6 [17:08] CoJaBo: the error is dumb because that's just what the operating system reports back. and I think you need to compile firefox yourself to get the 64bit version [17:09] :/ [17:20] what is the key combo to switch desktops? [17:21] Usually ctrl+al+left/right [17:21] CoJaBo: ^ [17:21] hm, isn't working :/ [17:22] ok, so normally, ctrl alt f1 drops to a terminal. why does this not work? [17:22] f2 shows blinking cursor, f7 the x display, all others are blank [17:31] hi guys - I need to ask a favour if anyone can help. I need someone who has used the startup disk creator to give me a hand. I want to kill my old mandriva system (currently on my external 500GB HDD) and use the startup disk to create a bootable kubuntu partition at the start of the disk. [17:32] I can't get this working though, since the startup creator keeps asking if I want to erase the entire disk, which I don't since it's got about 1.9 million MP3s on it, and I don't want to lose them. [17:33] Anyone know if I can use the startup disk creator to simply erase 1 partition of the disk only, i.e the root partition, and transfer the burned ISO into there instead? [17:33] BarkingFish, startup disk ? do you mean live cd? [17:34] BluesKaj, I have no idea. [17:34] What I have is an ISO of Kubuntu - I want to burn the ISO to a USB disk, so that I can move kubuntu to my old machine which currently has mandriva on it, but has no CD or DVD drive [17:35] I want it so that when I switch the machine on, the system will boot the Kubuntu startup and allow me to install it to my PC, so I can carry on working while I don't have my laptop [17:39] BarkingFish, so you want to boot the USB stick with kubuntu iso on it ... firstly if that's the case you need to find a method for the BIOS to boot the USB stick as first in the boot sequence ...there's a methos , but can't recall the name [17:39] BIOS will already boot from USB, it does that now with the old OS which is on it [17:40] My disk currently has mandriva on it, which I want to nuke. I want to clear the mandriva root partition and put the contents of the ISO there instead, bootable so I can install to the machine === Guest58757 is now known as LjL-Temp === LjL-Temp is now known as Guest40611 [17:46] BarkingFish: So if I understand correctly: You have an external 500Gb hd (NOT USB STICK) currently with full mandriva install, which you want to convert to kubuntu, then plug into another computer and run from that also, but your mp3s are on this external drive as well? [17:47] genii-around, sort of. I'll show you the layout. [17:47] The startup disk creator is not the proper tool for what you are doing [17:48] root is /dev/sdb1 - 30GB - /home is /dev/sdb5 - 50GB and the space for my remaining stuff is in /misc which amounts to 410.3GB === ejat- is now known as ejat [17:48] genii-around, so what is the proper tool for what I am doing? [17:55] BarkingFish: The current root is what fs? ext2/3/4? [17:55] current root is ext2 [17:55] the home partition is ext2 also [17:56] BarkingFish: Your music is already in /home ? [17:57] no, my music is in an NTFS partition at the end of the drive, the /misc one I mentioned, /dev/sdb6 [17:58] i have lots of spare space in the pc, so all the music will get moved along with everything else onto a 320GB fixed into the PC, and I'll turn /dev/sdb6 back into ext3 or ext4 [18:00] BarkingFish: If you just do an actual install of (K)ubuntu to the external drive and use same layout as before with your mandrive without formatting /home or sdb6 then all that will happen is that it will now be Ubuntu and not Mandriva [18:00] right, so I don't need to clear the home partition? [18:01] BarkingFish: I'm not sure what UID Mandriva gives first user by default, might not be 1000 like Debian/Ubuntu [18:01] Normally it's UID 500 [18:01] or 501, can't recall which [18:02] Worst case there you chown -R /home/oldusername/1000:1000 [18:02] Or just leave old username, make new username then migrate your stuff [18:03] right, so how do I install the ISO onto the USB disk then? It's already plugged into my laptop. I apologise if I sound thick, I've never strayed into this territory before :) [18:03] BarkingFish: You have no CD? [18:04] * BluesKaj waits with anticpation...new to me as well [18:04] no, I have the ISO on my laptop. [18:04] this is why I was going with the startup disk creator [18:05] if there's an easier way to do it, please let me know :) [18:05] brb [18:06] i have a qt based application that has a high chance of crashing when i launch it from within a bash script. if i launch it from a terminal window it works. what could cause that? [18:07] BarkingFish: If you have a spare usb stick that is 1Gb or larger, use the Startup Disk creator onto that, boot to that device, from where you can then install to either your external hard drive or the internal hard drive, etc [18:10] I don't have any USB sticks at all, sorry. [18:13] * genii-around sips his coffee and thinks about debootstrap from chroot [18:15] i have a qt based application that has a high chance of crashing when i launch it from within a bash script. if i launch it from a terminal window it works. what could cause that? [18:15] ah... sorry. tried to paste something else === avihay_ is now known as avihay [18:32] BarkingFish: Apologies on lag, my boss came down for an extended chat [18:33] no problem [18:33] BarkingFish: What bootloader does your mandriva use? [18:33] grub [18:33] graphic version, i think [18:34] * jimmy51_ is going crazy [18:36] BarkingFish: Can you pastebin fdisk -l results please? [18:36] sure [18:40] sorry about that, genii-around [18:40] I'm in 3 or 4 places at once doing tech support :) http://paste.ubuntu.com/687825/ [18:42] bbll..errands [18:42] ok, see ya in a bit BluesKaj [18:43] blueskaj, adding ppa's to synaptic causes them to error on missing gpg key on refresh. i remove them close repositories, open repositories add them again refresh then it adds the ppa ok, any idea whats going wrong? thanks === Guest40611 is now known as LjL-Temp === LjL-Temp is now known as Guest81457 [18:46] BarkingFish: What is in sdb7 ? [18:47] sdb 7 is one of my old home partitions I think. [18:50] BarkingFish: If nothing important there, you can do Instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromLinux#Live_CD using the grub2 method and probably (hd0,6) [18:51] Sorry (hd1,6) [18:51] there's nothing important there now, I've just copied it all to the /misc partition [18:52] you can see though I have a bootable partition on /dev/sdb already, could I put it there? [18:55] hi [18:56] BarkingFish: Any partition you can spare :) [18:56] ok, will do [18:57] I have a question about "safely" removing a USB device? [18:57] what about it? [18:58] genii-around, /dev/sdb7 has been deleted - I can create a new partition in that space, so I'll get going now. If I have any problems I'll come back to you :) [18:58] BarkingFish: I'll be here on and off for the next 2 hours [18:58] Basically I have a device that mounts a file system [18:58] ok, depends on how fast I can get this done, genii-around :) [18:58] see you soon [18:59] when I unmount the filesystem via dolphin the device does not recognize that it has been unmounted [18:59] and I need to use the udisk or eject on the commandline to get the device to recognize this [18:59] is this standard or a bug? [19:01] @jbern: have u run dolphin in the terminal to see the error? [19:01] no [19:02] in terminal, just type "dolphin" [19:02] and try unmounting it [19:02] and see what pops up in the terminal [19:02] I will try that. Dolphin does unmount the device (and if you run mount on the commandline it is not there) the issue is that the device itself doesn't know it is unmounted [19:02] right as u click it [19:02] that's strange [19:02] only after you use udisk or eject does the device know it is unmounted [19:03] does wine work on kubuntu 11.10? thanks [19:03] the USB device is a HP touchpad if it matters [19:03] winut: yes [19:03] what grahics driver do you use? [19:04] experimental or commerical? [19:04] we are using the experimental driver atm [19:04] on nvidia 7300 [19:06] I'm guessing I'm using experimental, didn't change anything after installation [19:06] what card do you have? [19:06] using onboard graphics from the i3 550 Clarksdale [19:06] did you wine via ppa? [19:06] with TH55 BioStar [19:07] I dont have wine atm [19:07] but I know it works with Kubuntu as well as Ubuntu [19:07] on 11.10? [19:07] oh for some reason thought u said 10.109 [19:07] 10.10* [19:07] I'm not familiar with the changes between 11.04 and 11.10 [19:08] it's not stable, so go figure if it works for u or not [19:08] have u tried it? [19:10] winut: is your configuration x64 or x86 [19:11] ? [19:11] x64 [19:11] hm [19:13] wimut what is your problem with wine ? [19:21] genii-around, right, I've carried out the instructions in accordance with the page you directed me to. I'm now going to *attempt* to get this working on my other machine. I'll be gone about an hour or so. [19:21] see you later, I'm gonna drop now since I need power sockets for my other pc [19:21] OK [19:22] bbfn, and thanks [19:24] !netsplit [19:24] netsplit is when two IRC servers of the same network (like freenode) disconnect from each other, so users on one server stop seeing users on the other. If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit [19:24] !netsplit [19:31] levae [19:32] how can i change the appereance of buttons etc. in kubuntu? [19:35] teemperor: http://www.kubuntu.org/docs/kquickguide/C/ch03s07.html#sect-appearance [19:38] thx :) === Wojtulas_ is now known as Wojtulas [19:54] Im trying to change video.driver for kaffeine in xine-config to vdpau, but it always overwrites with auto. What could i be doing wrong? [19:55] Anny assistance would be greatly appreciated :-) [20:01] hmm maybe everyone is at sleep right now [20:24] can I import my kmail1 message to kmail2 using kmailcvt? [20:24] has somebody tested this sucessfully? [20:27] B4ckBOne, ..why xine ? [20:28] BluesKaj: because of vdpau support [20:28] BluesKaj: i need it to watch hd channels from my dvb-s2 card [20:28] BluesKaj: cant get it to actualy use vdpau :-/ [20:28] mythtv? [20:29] BluesKaj: i like kaffeine :-) [20:29] and were in the K ubuntu channel [20:30] whynot VLC ,, I don't have an hdtv tuner but I watch hidef content without any issues [20:30] BluesKaj: what type of processor u have? [20:30] im running on an atom intel .. ant its at its limits [20:31] graphics is nvidia 8400gs , cpu isamd dual core "plain jane" [20:32] BluesKaj: do you know how to get kaffeine to use vdpau? [20:32] BluesKaj: i realy need to get this fixed :-/ [20:32] BluesKaj: you can check if your engine is able to use xine by issuing the command: "xine --help" [20:32] look for vdpau [20:33] I guess I could fool around with it , but I havent tried since VLC does the job, b4 [20:33] its video rendering on the graphics adapter instead of the cpu [20:33] BluesKaj: with me it does not! [20:34] i know that kaffeine is able to use vdpau, but i cant get it to do so [20:34] I don't have xine installed , never found it stable ... bbiab ...got food on the barbie [20:34] cu BluesKaj [20:35] B4ckBOne: Your graphics card is NVidia? [20:35] genii-around: yes [20:36] nVidia Corporation Device 1040 (rev a1) [20:36] B4ckBOne: You installed the vdpau driver for it from Additional Drivers ? [20:37] genii-around: vdpau is available in xine [20:37] genii-around: i used libxine2 from yavdr ppa [20:37] genii-around: and nvidia-vdpau etc [20:38] i nvidia-185-libvdpau [20:39] which nvidia card B4ckBOne ? [20:40] geeforce 210 [20:42] B4ckBOne: What says result of: lspci -nn| grep VGA [20:42] genii-around: 02:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: nVidia Corporation Device [10de:1040] (rev a1) [20:43] B4ckBOne, according to the nvidia site the geforce 210 should be running the 256.53 driver [20:45] BluesKaj: nvidia-current is installed, which should give me the newest [20:46] actualy it is /nvidia-current_280.13-0yavdr0~natty_i386.deb) [20:46] and it has got: - NVIDIA binary Xorg driver, kernel module and VDPAU library [20:46] so ther is vdpau in it [20:47] and also xine shows me vdpau is available [20:47] the issue is that when i configure kaffeine 1.2.2 to use vdpau, by editing ~/.kde/share/apps/kaffeine/xine-config -> to use vdpau by adding: video.driver:vdpau [20:48] it always reverts it to auto and comments the line out, when i start and stop kaffeine. [20:48] which is strange to me :-/ [20:51] genii-around: any suggestions [20:52] the nvidia-185-libvdpau may not be the correct version for the nvidia-current driver , but I don't use xine so , who knows [20:53] BluesKaj: uninstalled .. no change .. [20:53] BluesKaj: i think it was just an orphan [20:53] BluesKaj: nvidia-current provides all thats needed [20:54] cd /etc/X11/ [20:54] ls [20:54]
