LinkmasterI have a  /  and a  /home  partition table setup, so they are different tables. when I want to upgrade from 11.04 to 11.10, I simply reinstall into  /  , and direct the installer to my already made  /home  folder?02:27
EpoxxFresh Kubuntu install, everything went well, but then it started freezing each 10 minutes, and after 5-6 crashes, I boot to this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eEbBL4w0JTM03:59
EpoxxI feel like blaming Catalyst dirvers somehow04:01
EpoxxI'll reinstall kubuntu I guess, but stick with the provided radoen drivers this time.. I guess... anyone has a better idea?04:04
=== Doc_Savage96__ is now known as Doc_Savage96
jmichaelxEpoxx: i would more likely blame kde/kwin.... it may be a hassle, but before you reinstall, try thing with something like xfce or lxde...04:15
EpoxxBut thing is,  I'm not a poweruse, and I don't even have access to a tty since it crashes before anything04:16
jmichaelxthings*04:16
Epoxxpoweruser*04:16
jmichaelxcan you not boot to terminal? do things crash before kdm comes up?04:18
EpoxxFor some reason, I boot to a terminal instead of kdm where I have to log in, but before I even have time to enter ym username, it crashes04:19
EpoxxAnd the screen with vertical white lines makes me think it's related to catalyst04:19
EpoxxI did go and get the latest closed-source ones04:19
jmichaelxso X was working before you installed catalyst?04:20
Epoxxyes, and it didn't crahs this bad right after installig them04:20
Epoxxit jst froze a couple times, now I can't even boot04:20
Epoxx(wow, I can't type properly)04:21
jmichaelxi am at a loss, if you are not even able to get to a terminal04:21
EpoxxYeah same here, I'll reinstall04:21
jmichaelxsorry, man :-(04:22
EpoxxThe worst part is that i'm a final year comp sci student, and I'm not familiar enough with Linux (since i'm a gamer).. and then stuff liek this happens04:22
EpoxxHaha it's fine thanks for the help04:22
jmichaelxwas there are reason you didn't just go with the version of catalyst provided by ubuntu?04:23
EpoxxI thought getting the latest would hlep... beside I had difficulties setting up my dual screen layout04:23
Epoxx(I was not able to properly switch them around)04:23
jmichaelxyea, and i have not often set up dual monitors04:24

jaafarhaving some trouble with flash plugins.  Chrome wants to run this command to install it: xdg-open apt:adobe-flashplugin?channel=natty-partner17:03
jaafarThere is no such channel as "natty-partner", and adobe-flashplugin is a virtual package anyway17:04
jaafarThis is 64b 11.04; if anyone has experience with this I'd appreciate the advice17:04
jaafarAh, for some reason deleting my old Firefox plugin fixed it:  rm ~/home/me/.mozilla/plugins/libflashplayer.so17:23
BluesKajjaafar, installing flashplugin-installer is the best method , rather than using the adobesite version , if that's what you were using.17:26
jaafarBluesKaj, I tried both, neither worked17:31
jaafarIt turns out chrome/chromium will look at your firefox plugin folder and override the system setting with it17:31
BluesKajjaafar, did you try a restart ?17:32
jaafaroh yes17:32
jaafarmany times17:32
jaafarbut removing that firefox plugin cured it almost immediately17:32
BluesKajjaafar, was probly the wrong plugin17:42
jaafarright, it was an old one, but IMO chrome should not have tried to use it.  Even Firefox was not using it!17:44
BluesKajjaafar, chrome was using it ? maybe chrome settles for what it can find in the mozilla plugin file ..I tried the adobe website version and it would n't work at all in either chromium or FF17:51

Flutiju`I have a problem with ibus-pinyin, someone can help me ?20:04
SnowhogFlutiju`: What are you having a problem with?20:11
Flutiju`Snowhog : It works everywhere, excpet in Firefox20:11
csucsu734csá mindenki20:16
csucsu734hány vagyis mennyi hack van kubutu ra?20:17

Snowhogcsucsu734: Your language?20:17
ushiumagyar could be that?20:17
SnowhogFlutiju`: Have you checked for the Pinyin Input Tool extension? "The Pinyin Input Tool is an extension for Firefox. After installing it, a blue 拼 (pin) button will on the right side of the status bar at the bottom of your browser. You can use it to convert pinyin text with numbers into pinyin text with tone marks. Just type in some pinyin with numbers in to any plain text field on any browser page, highlight it and click the button."20:21

anonHi. I'm not sure this is the right channel to ask, but I'll try. I just switched recently from Ubuntu to Kubuntu. However, in Chromium, I could close tabs by using ctrl-f4. Now it doesn't work anymore. Am I bound to use ctrl-w or is there a mapping I can set to use ctrl-f4?20:40
Snowhoganon: Look at System Settings > Shortcuts and Gestures20:45
anonSnowhog: yes I tried there (and added some global shortcuts to which I'm also used, for launching terminal for instance). Chromium isn't listed there. Should I be creating my own entry for Chromium?20:46
Snowhoganon: The default shortcut to close a tab in Chromium (in Kubuntu) is Ctrl+W. Of course, it will close the 'active' tab, so that may not be what you want.20:49
anonSnowhog: this is exactly what I want :)20:49
anonin Ubuntu, both ctrl-f4 and ctrl-w work,20:49
anonI had been on Ubuntu for 6 years, and at work I'm on Windows,20:50
anonand I'm sort of used to ctrl-f4. If there's no way to map it on Kubuntu, then I guess I'll have to get used to ctrl-w, no big deal, just thought of asking20:50
jollywolluptried googling this, but couldn't find the answer: easiest way to upgrade to kubuntu 11.10 from the command line?21:39

Snowhogjollywollup: Make sure that you are fully dist-upgraded first (sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade).21:47

macowhy are you trying to do something super advanced like network cracking if you're a new user?22:34
DaskreechThat's a horrible attitude to finding one :)22:34

maco<maco> anyway, "man iwconfig" is a command that tells you how to use iwconfig.  short version for setting channel though:   sudo iwconfig <interface name> channel <channel number>22:40
salisi have to write sudo iwconfig wlan0 channel 1 ?22:56
