[00:08] <debrisrat> hi !
[00:08] <debrisrat> sorry
[00:09] <debrisrat> how can i Uninstall Macbuntu ?
[00:19] <shadrach> i'm having problems with my wireless connectivity. It used to work but when I upgraded it stopped working.  I am currently on 11.10 I am trying to connect to a router running WPA-PSK encryption. Can anyone help?
[00:21] <shadrach> I am able to connect to a non encrypted network with no problems
[00:38] <romeyro_lpt> phunyguy: how you doing ? long time no see
[00:45] <cablop> i got tired of unity
[00:45] <cablop> so i want to switch to KDE
[00:45] <shadrach2> i'm having problems with my wireless connectivity. It used to work but when I upgraded it stopped working.  I am currently on 11.10 I am trying to connect to a router running WPA-PSK encryption. Can anyone help?
[00:45] <cablop> how can i switch to KDE without converting the whole thing in kubuntu?
[00:46] <amason_> shadrach2: can you provide us with more information ?
[00:46] <amason_> cablop: what do you mean by converting ?
[00:47] <shadrach2> amason_:  what can I give you?
[00:47] <cablop> i tried before... so i got this issue, each thing has its own login manager, gdm or kdm... if you start a kde session, then you cannot start another user session in the computer if the default is gdm.... same thing if you set kdm, but another user uses unity or gnome, onvce they do, no way to swith or start anew user session...
[00:48] <cablop> i installed kde-desktop or something like that, and that thing changed me the colors of login the name of login, everything, even the name on the grub!
[00:48] <amason_> shadrach2: me specifically nothing, but the if you provide enough information to the channel they may be able to help. I would start with at least your version of kubuntu, kernel, wifi chipset, any messages in kern.log
[00:49] <shadrach2> amason_: ok thanks i'll get that info and post it
[00:51] <cablop> so how to install kde to have it almost complete, but not changing the name or other things of my desktop?
[01:10] <amason_> cablop: well apt-get install kubuntu desktop just adds the kubuntu desktop to your ubuntu install
[01:11] <cablop> amason_: but it should change the grub colors and the linux name to kubuntu, right?
[01:11] <amason_> your hostname will be the same as it currently is
[01:11] <amason_> it will change the bootsplash
[01:12] <amason_> you can keep gdm/ldm as your greeter
[01:12] <amason_> if you wish
[01:13] <amason_> i don't know that it will change the grub colours
[01:56] <caesar_> this just started happening today when i click on FB friends..

[01:57] <kala_> hola
[01:57] <kala_> hello
[02:12] <aperson> I have a problem where after a while, entries in the 'application launcher menu' are unresponsive
[02:12] <aperson> and I have to use krunner to start apps
[02:12] <aperson> the only way I know to fix this is by restarting kdm
[02:13] <aperson> anyone experience this/have ideas?
[02:13] <aperson> I'm on 4.7.3, for what it's worth
[02:14]  * szal doesn't have that
[03:17] <amason_> aperson: i get that from time to time but only seems to be on systems which use a proprietary video driver
[03:17] <Chamaeleo> Hello! Is there anyone I might ask about troubles with a fresh kubuntu install on a Macbook?
[03:17] <amason_> you don't need to ask to ask.. you can just ask your question
[03:17] <amason_> and if anyone knows they will help
[03:19] <Chamaeleo> Sorry, new to the channel and unsure of etiquette. I just finished a fresh install of Kubuntu 10.10 on my Macbook (rev 3,1). Everything seems to be working pretty well, except my trackpad. I've tried adjusting the settings for the trackpad, but it works only sporadically and very sluggishly. Are there other drivers or configuration that I need to see to?
[03:27] <amason_> 10.10 ?
[03:27] <amason_> or 11.10 ?
[03:46] <Chamaeleo> 10.10, the 64bit version. On the Ubuntu page, it was listed as the most recent version compatible with my Mac.
[03:49] <Chamaeleo> Correction - on very low sensitivity, it works sluggishly if I keep the whole pad of my finger on the touchpad (as opposed to the tip). If I raise or lower the sensitivity, I get no functionality at all.
[03:53] <seanmc98> hello
[03:54] <seanmc98> how do i install different themes in kubuntu
[05:10] <Nickmh> Hi All
[05:11] <Nickmh> are there any printer gurus awake?
[05:11] <Resistance> define "printer gurus"
[05:12] <Resistance> because printers in Ubuntu/Kubuntu are horridly straightforward
[05:12] <Resistance> unless of course there isnt a linux print driver for the printer
[05:12] <Nickmh> heh :) A Printer Guru is anyone that can get a brother hl4570cdw working :)
[05:12] <Resistance> ;P
[05:13] <Nickmh> Prepare to be annointed :)
[05:13] <Resistance> i'm not the guru ;P
[05:13] <Resistance> in fact
[05:13] <Resistance> i dont use brother printers
[05:13] <Nickmh> I've installed the .deb package - Lovely,  but the swine driver is not appearing in the Drivers list?
[05:13] <Resistance> for the sole reason i have access to state-owned laser printers from hell ;P
[05:14] <Resistance> Nickmh, did you perhaps modprobe the driver?  or perhaps restart with the printer connected to the system?
[05:14] <Resistance> (if that's how they connect)
[05:15] <Nickmh> Is my imagination allowed to run riot with "modprovbe"?
[05:15] <Resistance> not really
[05:15] <Nickmh> "modprobe" sorry :)
[05:15] <Resistance> there's specific ones, but i'm unsure of what you'd be using with modprobe
[05:15] <Resistance> sec, i must run a google
[05:15] <Resistance> ;P
[05:17] <Resistance> out of curiosity
[05:17] <Resistance> which one of the provided .debs did you use?
[05:17] <Resistance> (see, google pwns :P)
[05:18] <Resistance> (they have two for your model)
[05:18] <Nickmh> hl4570cdwcupswrapper-1.1.1-5.i386.deb3
[05:19] <Nickmh> forget the 3, my typo
[05:19] <Resistance> hmm
[05:19] <Resistance> well, since i'm going to nuke the OS on this system anyways...
[05:20]  * Resistance installs the .deb for modprobe search purposes
[05:22] <Resistance> hmm
[05:23] <Resistance> just to ask... where'd you get the .deb from?
[05:23] <Nickmh> Brother USA
[05:23] <Resistance> because the .deb i got from brother (the manufacturer) directly isnt named that
[05:23] <Nickmh> When I go through the Standard settings GUI, the printer appears in the list, I can select it, but then I don't get to the choose the drivers from a list afterwards
[05:23] <Resistance> you dont really need to iirc :/
[05:23] <Resistance> at least not normally
[05:23] <Nickmh> AAAhhhh,  you may be onto something
[05:24] <Resistance> if the system doesnt detect a driver, it wont usually ask, is what i've experienced
[05:24] <Resistance> and on another note http://welcome.solutions.brother.com/bsc/public_s/id/linux/en/download_prn.html#HL-4570CDW%20/%20HL-4570CDWT
[05:24] <Resistance> that's what i'm using to get the driver
[05:24] <Nickmh> Yeh, I used the cupswrapper
[05:24] <Resistance> ok sec
[05:25]  * Resistance installs
[05:25] <Resistance> eww
[05:25] <Resistance> lintian errors... </packager jargon>
[05:26] <Resistance> you may just need to reboot
[05:26] <Resistance> and then plug in the printer
[05:26] <Resistance> and hope it works
[05:27] <Resistance> of course, if the debs are broken, its irrelevant ;P
[05:27] <Nickmh> it's on the network.  Was it bad not mentioning that?
[05:27] <Resistance> (usually i'd just build the driver from source)
[05:27] <Resistance> and yes that might have something to do with it
[05:27] <Resistance> you should always mention that ;P
[05:27] <Resistance> did you check to see if the linux drivers allow network-printing?
[05:27] <Nickmh> Sorry.  So used to doing eveyrthing over the network,  hadly have anything plugged into this box
[05:28]  * Resistance knows some printers which have network print support in WIndows, but fail to make it work in Linux
[05:28] <Nickmh> In windo$ they do
[05:28] <Nickmh> AAhhh,  that would make sense
[05:28] <Resistance> but yeah you might consider rebooting
[05:29] <Resistance> and then going through the "Add a printer" thing again
[05:29] <Resistance> but fwiw, if its installed, cupswrapper should work
[05:29] <Nickmh> I can get Web GUI to connect.  http://localhost:631 etc Well, that's what it's telling me it's doing. But I can't get the driver selection to appear.
[05:30] <Nickmh> HHHmmm  I might just have to kep fighting with it.  try a few things
[05:31] <Resistance> it might not need the driver selection, is what i said
[05:31] <Resistance> i've set up CUPS network prints which seem to work without selecting a driver
[05:32] <Resistance> but that's just my system...
[05:32]  * Resistance has some nasty hacks and modifications on his system
[05:33] <Nickmh> I'm also seriously new to Linux.  Hence Ubuntu.  Love it.  But I'm sure my brain has been jellied by Mr Gates. :)
[05:33] <Resistance> :P
[05:34] <Resistance> better than Apple... i've seen people claim to understand Linux because they know the Mac OS inside and out
[05:34] <Resistance> then i hand them an ArchLinux system and say "Show me your understanding"
[05:34] <Resistance> and they usually fail
[05:34] <Resistance> (this is why i'm the linux technician/admin where i work, and they are not :P)
[05:35] <Nickmh> Oh Yeh,  I'm too old to beleive "claims"  Show me evidence! :)
[05:37] <Nickmh> WWooohhhooo,  Found it.  OK.  Lets see what damage we can do from here :)
[05:38] <Resistance> you probably wont need to modprobe if you're using CUPS ;p
[05:38] <Nickmh> love the idea of modprobe 'ing something though.  Soundfs a bit private though LOL
[05:39] <Resistance> :P
[05:40] <bonezlaptop> >>.ot//
[05:41] <bonezlaptop> :">}OOP/..
[06:02] <Nickmh> Resistance.  Am I allowed to cjheat and talk to it through Samba :)  Cause that worked.  Thanks for your help
[06:11]  * phiscribe cries
[06:12] <phiscribe> i foobared my kubuntu instal
[06:16] <Shaan7> phiscribe: what does that mean?
[06:29] <phiscribe> Shaan7 sorry i was fiddling with xorg.conf and well, foobared it, ( to me it means the same German word furchtbar, which means awful and terrible.)
[06:29] <Shaan7> aw, its xorg.conf again :/

[14:14] <ubuntu> Hello everyone
[14:15] <ubuntu> I'm testing out a Toshiba with a Nvidia card, and it looks to me that it doesn-t use Optimus
[14:15] <ubuntu> however, in the shop when i tried it with Win7, it seemed to use Optimus
[14:16] <ubuntu> How do i figure out what-s going on at the hardware/driver level?
[14:17] <vprints> i think you should first research what driver / OS / HW  combinations support optimus at all
[14:18] <ubuntu> "lspci | grep VGA"    returns only         "01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation Device 0dec (rev a1)"       . No intel in sight
[14:18] <vprints> at least the current official state
[14:18] <vprints> BIOS settings could also theoretically be useful to look at
[14:18] <ubuntu> rgr
[14:19] <ubuntu> given lspci output, what do you think?
[14:20] <vprints> BIOS might nhave one of the cards disabled
[14:20] <ubuntu> that would be awesome!
[14:20] <vprints> :P
[14:20] <vprints> but i'm not sure optimus is currently supported for linux
[14:20] <vprints> it might be
[14:20] <vprints> but might not
[14:21] <vprints> so research first
[14:21] <ubuntu> thats what i believe too, exception for bumblebee proj
[14:22] <ubuntu> but if it doesnt work, ill trade with my father and get his inferior laptop :/
[14:24] <vprints> well, just use the more powerful VGA card then
[14:24] <vprints> not the biggest worry i think
[14:24] <ubuntu> ty for the help vprints
[14:25] <ubuntu> what im looking for though is a link or hint in the right direction to figure out how to see what linux is using
[14:26] <ubuntu> i know of lspci, are there other commands i should look into?
[14:30] <Antisoche> ubuntu: Xorg.log ?
[14:31] <ubuntu> @Antisoche: Xorg.0.log?
[14:31] <Antisoche> Most likely
[14:33] <Antisoche> Xorg generates a logfile for each display instance.  '0' is the default display, but there's also 'failsafe' and '1', '2', etc, depending on the number of servers you run.
[14:39] <ubuntu> alot to process heh. TY!
[14:50] <ubuntu> no Intel either. "Warning, couldn't open module nvidia" "Loading /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/nouveau_drv.so" "Warning, couldn't open module nv"
[14:50] <ubuntu> didnt know there were 3 drivers for nvidia
[14:50] <ubuntu> it seems to be using nouveau
[15:02] <BluesKaj> Hey all
[15:20] <daviddoria> When I click on the little "updates" icon in the panel and then try to install updates, it says I don't have permission. Shouldn't I have permission to do something that the system pops up in the tray and asks me to do? I can run it with gksu no problem, but that seems like an awkward thing to have to do
[15:24] <daviddoria> is there a way to move a panel to my second monitor?
[15:24] <BluesKaj> daviddoria, use kdesudo on kde , and why not just sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade in the konsole/terminal
[15:25] <daviddoria> BluesKaj, sure, I can do that, but why would it pop up an icon asking me to do something and then not give me permission to do it? that seems odd
[15:27] <BluesKaj> package managers always ask for pw either when you launch or when an app is chosen to install, muon asks for it right at launch for some reason.
[15:28] <daviddoria> BluesKaj, asking for a password would be fine. However, it doesn't ask, it just wont let me do anything
[15:28] <BluesKaj> daviddoria, muon ?
[15:28] <Ddpbf> daviddoria: what did you start muon software center or muon package manager?
[15:28] <Ddpbf> (USC like, or synaptick like)
[15:28] <daviddoria> Ddpbf, unfortunately I closed it so I'm not sure which it was. It was a yellow icon in the panel
[15:29] <Ddpbf> ok type this
[15:29] <Ddpbf> afirst alt+f2
[15:29] <daviddoria> i just started muon package manager
[15:29] <genii-around> Is polkit-kde-1 installed?
[15:29] <Ddpbf> then in liitle box kdesudo muon
[15:29] <daviddoria> i marked some packages to upgrade, then when i click "apply changes" it says "this operation cannot continue since proper authorization was not provided"
[15:30] <daviddoria> genii-around, no
[15:31] <daviddoria> genii-around, should i install it
[15:31] <Ddpbf> daviddoria: start manager with root privilegies
[15:31] <daviddoria> Ddpbf, yea it works fine if started with kdesudo
[15:31] <Ddpbf> you started package manager
[15:31] <ubuntu> it should ask you for your password
[15:31] <genii-around> daviddoria: There's currently a known bug where package manager will not prompt for password if that package is not installed, so yes
[15:33] <Ddpbf> daviddoria: so it is solution now install that package :)
[15:33] <phoenix_firebrd> what should i do to enable vaapi for gma x4500 ?
[15:33] <genii-around> ( the change will not take effect until a logoff-logon cycle)
[15:34] <daviddoria> ok thanks
[15:34] <daviddoria> round 2: is there a way to move a panel to my second monitor? In gnome I just alt+drag it, but that doesn't seem to work here
[15:36] <ubuntu> thank you guys for the help
[15:37] <daviddoria> ok, thanks for the input all
[15:46] <BluesKaj> BBL, stuff to do
[15:57] <Eruaran> Does anybody know how to fix the problem with the clock on the panel not showing 12 hour (AM/PM) time?
[15:57] <Eruaran> I've installed Kubuntu 11.10 on several machines now and this problem appears on every system.
[15:57] <Eruaran> I can't believe no one else is having this problem.
[16:04] <Ddpbf> Eruaran: you could adjust time in system settings
[16:04] <Eruaran> I have done this
[16:04] <Ddpbf> format of it also
[16:04] <Eruaran> Everything is set correctly
[16:04] <Eruaran> It should be displaying 12 hour AM/PM time
[16:05] <Eruaran> It does not
[16:05] <Eruaran> And there is no way to make it do so
[16:05] <Eruaran> EVERY install of Kubuntu 11.10 does this
[16:05] <Eruaran> on the live CD, it displays the correct time format
[16:05] <Eruaran> But when you install it, you get the 24 hour time problem
[16:05] <Eruaran> Its very annoying
[16:05] <Ddpbf> errr 24 hour is more correct acctuall
[16:06] <Ddpbf> it is not error
[16:06]  * Eruaran sighs
[16:06] <Ddpbf> if you dont like it you could change it
[16:06] <Eruaran> I cannot change it
[16:06] <Eruaran> I've said that already
[16:06] <Eruaran> It seems no one is listening
[16:06] <Eruaran> This is a bug
[16:09] <Ddpbf> http://www.imagebam.com/image/61da5591680308
[16:09] <Ddpbf> did you try this?
[16:09] <genii-around> Eruaran: System Settings... Common Appearance and Behaviour... Locale... Countr/Region and Language... Date and time tab on right... set time Format to: pH:MM:SS AMPM
[16:10] <Ddpbf> genii-around: i posted him link to the picture :)
[16:10]  * genii-around slides Ddpbf a coffee
[16:10] <Ddpbf> thanks man i appreciate it
[16:11]  * genii-around makes more coffee
[16:11]  * Ddpbf is cofee adict
[16:11]  * Peace- too much coffee is bad
[16:12] <Ddpbf> Peace-: Balzac drunk 100 cofees per day
[16:12]  * Peace- thinks balzac is sick
[16:12] <Ddpbf> and he staied a live :)
[16:12]  * Eruaran sighs
[16:12] <Ddpbf> It was french writer from 19 century
[16:13]  * Peace- *was sick
[16:13] <Ddpbf> :)
[16:13] <Ddpbf> it might be true
[16:13] <Peace-> i have studied him
[16:13] <Peace-> i guess but i hate that kind of stuff , i like numbers
[16:14] <genii-around> Philosophy in #kubuntu-offtopic please :)
[16:14] <Peace-> xD
[16:14] <Ddpbf> this is literature, but i guess it is in sam channel
[16:14] <Ddpbf> :D
[16:15]  * Ddpbf is running fast in #kubuntu-offtopic
[16:15] <Peace-> bye guys have a nice day
[16:15] <Eruaran> Ok if anyone has a solution please let me know
[16:16] <Peace-> genii-around: you no :D :P
[16:16] <Peace-> Eruaran: ?
[16:16] <Eruaran> Please do not tell me how to use locale settings again as if I haven't already stated that I have already done so
[16:16] <Eruaran> Is it really that hard to understand?
[16:16] <Peace-> Eruaran: i was offline sir...
[16:16] <Eruaran> KDE's settings are correct - the panel clock doesn't display correctly
[16:16] <Eruaran> This happens on every new Kubuntu install I do on multiple systems
[16:16] <Peace-> Eruaran: screenshot?
[16:17] <genii-around> Eruaran: The important thing is the exact setting to be: pH:MM:SS AMPM for the panel clock to display 12 hour
[16:17] <Eruaran> good grief
[16:17] <Eruaran> for some reason its just started working
[16:17] <Eruaran> i haven't changed any settings
[16:18] <Peace-> reloaded the plasma?
[16:18] <Peace-> rebooted?
[16:18] <Eruaran> many times before...
[16:18] <Eruaran> many times...
[16:18] <Eruaran> yes,  its been on pH:MM:SS AMPM all along...
[16:18] <Eruaran> bizarre
[16:18] <Peace-> i dunno
[16:19] <Peace-> ok :D bye
[16:19] <Eruaran> the only thing I did just then was install the adjustable clock widget
[16:19] <Eruaran> then remove it
[16:19] <Eruaran> because it also wasn't displaying 12 hour time...
[16:19] <Eruaran> then when I tried the normal one again... it worked
[16:19] <genii-around> Maybe you have desktop session saving in a way that it always ends up loading the 24 hour setting into the clock
[16:20] <Eruaran> I don't know
[16:20] <Eruaran> something just kicked it into shape
[16:21] <Eruaran> :@
[16:23] <Eruaran> The article is incorrect
[16:23] <Eruaran> oops
[16:23] <Eruaran> wrong channel
[17:07] <benbloom> I'm curious about installing kubuntu 64bit vs 32bit on an AMD64 chipset. I used the 64bit build for a while but found it lacking support for features I needed. what are the basic differences?
[17:25] <susundberg> benbloom: the 64bit release is compiled with 64b support. The all features etc support for devices should be there if they are in 32b version
[17:25] <susundberg> the code is 'almost' excatly the same
[17:31] <benbloom> so for instance, if i want to run flash on kubuntu 64 i can install the 32bit driver and run it no problem susundberg?
[17:33] <benbloom> driver is the wrong word.

[20:57] <snikker> hi, i've installed grub2 (with kubuntu 10.11) and now i'm unable to run windows recovery partition <F9> key at boot, can you help me?
[21:04] <OerHeks> snikker, i hope the partition is still on your HDD, please paste.ubuntu.com the output of " sudo fdisk -l  "
[21:05] <OerHeks> normally grub2 would not touch that hardwarekey to recovery
[21:05] <snikker> OerHeks: yes the partition is on my hd, is hidden but exist.
[21:06] <OerHeks> can you see the instance in your grubmenu when you hold shift @ boot
[21:07] <snikker> OerHeks: ok, now i try to hold shift
[21:07] <snikker> OerHeks: nothing change with shift hold down
[21:13] <uabn93>  How can i stop this error for mounting my patriot usb thumb drive? "the kernel driver for this filesystem type is not available...../dev/sdb1 is not a valid block device"
[21:24] <Orcris> Does anyone know how to make my screen lock? If I just press the lock button, nothing happens, and I just need to wait for about 5 minutes, it will turn off, but the screensaver won't work. How do I get it to lock?
[21:28] <AndroidLoverInSF> i like kde, it has more functionality than unity, but dolphin tends to crash a lot recently in 11.10. also sometimes when i click on the "start-menu" bottom left, it pops up but cant do anything. this tends to happen when non-local drives are not present, but why would it affect the startmenu. i can see why it would cause dolphin to hang. anyway dolphin doesnt handle disconnected drives as well as nautilus it seems. but i still like kde better
[21:28] <AndroidLoverInSF>  than unity
[21:29] <BarkingFish> Orcris: It's pretty easy
[21:30] <BarkingFish> If you click the K button on your panel, go to Leave, and in the next menu which pops up, under Session, click Lock
[21:30] <Orcris> I'm using the netbook interface.
[21:30] <Orcris> When I click the lock button on the top, nothing happens.
[21:30] <BarkingFish> right, I'm not sure how that differs since I'm on the desktop interface
[21:31] <BarkingFish> You might want to speak to #kde if you're having issues with Lock not locking your screen
[21:31] <Orcris> Okay. Thanks.
[21:31] <BarkingFish> np
[21:54] <loadid> i'm having trouble on new installs, my lcd monitor goes out of range as soon as grub loads and stays there even after booted up.  If i attach a crt monitor everything is well.  I changed the refresh rate to 60hz and it worked on the LCD monitor until i rebooted and then i guess went back to auto.  Any help??
[21:56] <phoenix_firebrd> what i have to do to use vaapi for intel gma x4500
[21:57] <BluesKaj> loadid, which graphics card ? Have you installed the recommended driver in kmenu>apps>system>additional drivers ?
[21:58] <loadid> BluesKaj: that would affect grub?
[21:58] <loadid> the video card works, if i hook up a crt monitor
[21:59] <loadid> it's just at a frequency my lcd doesn't support, and it changes back to auto from 60hz when i reboot
[22:00] <BluesKaj> yes it could depend on which graphics mode or whether one is being set at boot in /etc/default/grub
[22:03] <BluesKaj> loadid, usually lcds like a 50hz setting best , dunno why , that's just my experience
[22:03] <loadid> it's an nvidia card, i'll load some different drivers and see what happens
[22:05] <BluesKaj> loadid, well that's a start for sure , nvidia has additional drivers
[22:05] <BluesKaj> BBL, stuff to do

[23:27] <92AAABK9M> I seem to have a problem booting a kubuntu 11.10 (upgrade).  I get the kubuntu splacsh with the dots under and it hangs. I think it's a video issue because I made some changes to the video card before this problem happened.  question is, how do I get it to boot to a safe mode so I can investigate the issue?
