[00:32] "I'm thinking on moving to Suse. The main reasin is that Ubuntu is very dedicated to Gnome, and Kubuntu has bad support... I prefer KDE. Who uses Kubuntu, desn't think this also?" [00:32] is this true? [00:32] am tryin to install os with kde for code testing [00:36] Folklore: you can use kubuntu, or install KDE in ubuntu, or any of the other *buntu's, or any other distro... all should have KDE in the repositories [00:37] why does kubuntu exist then [00:37] Folklore: its ubuntu with KDE, and other customizations [00:37] out of the box, kubuntu is a certain look and feel [00:38] and also Ubuntu / Kubuntu is supposed to be easy so asking a user which desktop they prefer when they have no idea what a desktop is, is counter productive [00:39] yeah, putting in a disk and being asked 'kde or gnome' and saying 'wonder what that means' ;) [00:39] i remember that [00:40] Folklore: theres also no reason to "install" a kde os.. you can run one live for testing an application [00:40] KDE os? [00:40] its an application I wrote [00:41] trying to port it, so can't do the livecd thing need it to save stuff [00:41] Folklore: right... load the live CD... test the application [00:41] it needs to save to the hardware, so I can dev it [00:41] live cd only saves to mem [00:42] OK.. i assume virtualization is not an option [00:42] yeah im running it in vbox [00:42] anyways.. suse has a nice KDE implementation too... i say either one will work fine [00:42] i usually find my way back to buntu becuase of the community [00:42] holstein funny you mention that, am downloading opensuse right now [00:42] I tried fedora but fedora too brutal on system resources, needs ovee 700mbs to install [00:43] and was maxin my cpu non-stop [00:43] for their kde version [00:43] 700mbs being the ram [00:43] over that [00:43] Folklore: you dont go to KDE to be light on resources [00:44] I don't go to it to wreck my hardware either [00:45] pcbsd has kde and isn't so hardcore(freebsd+kde) [00:46] Folklore: isnt that an older verion? [00:47] anyways, you can lighten it up in kubuntu im sure, but when i want light, i go LXDE [00:47] holsteind: KDE could be ultralight also just look this http://paste.kde.org/156794/ [00:47] KDE on Pentium III [00:47] holstein yeah, lubuntu is my favorite nix os atm [00:47] incredibly fast, great on resources [00:47] uses lxde [00:48] Folklore: it use half of gnome and lxde [00:48] lxde is 7 mb [00:48] even less [00:48] see.. you should talk to Ddpbf, Folklore ... see how he/she has it configured [00:48] He definetley [00:49] I no longer can log on to my profile on kubuntu since I changed the name of a file in the name $media$*.arc. Do any of you know this file under kubuntu? [00:49] holstein im not a linux guy [00:49] Folklore: right.. but Ddpbf is [00:49] thats like matrix text to me [00:49] and is using KDE on a p3 [00:49] if you say its heavy, i agree, and thats the man to help you slim it down [00:49] not trying to waste lot of his time, maybe he'll be so kind to make a quick write up for noobs or something [00:49] so all can benefit [00:49] ? [00:49] Holstein, this is my friend acctaully, i have few years newer maching [00:49] Folklore: is it installed? [00:49] step by step kinda thing [00:49] *machine [00:50] just test the application [00:50] he just show me this [00:50] few hours ago [00:50] im not clear on what the issue is Folklore ? [00:50] :) [00:50] if you are not wanting to waste time, just install kubuntu, and test [00:50] is his friends box holstein [00:50] Folklore: ? [00:51] Folklore: do you want just [00:51] essential KDE [00:51] not full strenght [00:51] is there a way to decrypt .encryptfs using just my password (not the passphrase) [00:51] from the terminal? [00:51] dbpbf yup [00:52] sudo apt-get isntall kde-plasma-desktop [00:52] *install [00:52] it is the bare-minimum required of KDE [00:52] I do that after installing kubuntu? [00:52] err [00:53] do it from your lubuntu/ubuntu/xubuntu [00:53] whatever do you use [00:53] do I gotta edit autostart script or anything [00:53] also there is metapackage kde-minimal [00:53] or will the two cmds above get it done [00:53] nope [00:53] and I can just boot into kde [00:53] you will get kdm with it also [00:54] so you could start kde session [00:54] That way you could see if you like KDE [00:54] and decide if you want to switch to kubuntu [00:56] i've used kde before [00:56] i just want a kde setup to test install code, like right click menu entry [00:56] icons, etc... [00:56] xdg-mime seems broken on lubuntu [00:56] Folklore: then install those pacakges Ddpbf mentioned, and test :) [00:56] and I need that to register file types, might just do it manually [00:57] thanks ddpbf [00:57] np [00:57] :) === Guest54907 is now known as BarkingFish === BarkingFish is now known as Guest94681 === Guest43591 is now known as zkriesse_ === zkriesse_ is now known as zkriesse [03:18] !help [03:18] Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily).

[17:37] hi all ... question, I am trying to load another os on a multiboot/partitioned laptop and getting an error because I think it's confused as to where to put the new system [17:38] is there info on a workaround? [17:43] BenPA: so you have to fix your grub? [17:44] BenPA: if you are running your system now you could try to detect the system with linux and fix the grub [17:44] !grub [17:44] GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager since 9.10 (Karmic). Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - For more information and troubleshooting for GRUB2 please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 - See !grub1 for releases before Karmic (9.10) [18:15] Peace: how do I fix grub? [18:17] Peace-: please leave a respose I have to run out but will leave this open [18:43] désolée, léger bug [18:44] !fr [18:44] Ce canal est en anglais uniquement. Si vous avez besoin d'aide ou voulez discuter en français, veuillez taper /join #ubuntu-fr ou /join #ubuntu-qc. Merci. [19:24] hi everyone - I just bought a new PC and I'd like to have my sound go through a HDMI cable, how'd I accomplish that? [19:25] I've set HDMI to the preferred phonon and also plugged in the HDMI cable in the nVidia graphics card HDMI input (there are two HDMI spots, one internal and one nVidia) [19:25] however... it still doesn't work and I'm not sure how to debug this [19:28] Kottizen, I hope you connected the hdmi cable to the output , unless you're trying to capture audio [19:28] BluesKaj: ah yes, sorry - the output [19:28] oh actually [19:28] let me check [19:31] can only find one port, so I guess it's the one out [19:32] the nvidia hdmi ? [19:32] yes [19:33] Kottizen, is the nvidia card a separate pci graphics card ? If so make sure you it set as default in the BIOS [19:33] BluesKaj: it is - thanks, will check that [19:35] Kottizen, I'm not real sure about the audio settings for separate hdmi . I'm pretty sure if you set it in phonon and the test sound works . you should be ok [19:43] BluesKaj: unfortunately I haven't heard a single sound since I installed the system, not even from the test sounds [19:48] it works in Windows, just confirmed that [19:48] Kottizen. open alsamixer in the terminal and make sure your hdmi and master ctrls are all turned up to at least 80% [19:48] how do I see which one' [19:48] 's HDMI? [19:48] yes [19:49] it should be labelled [19:49] this is what I see: http://wstaw.org/m/2011/12/09/plasma-desktopIf1491.jpg [19:51] Kottizen, disable the automute setting [19:51] and no matter which one I choose, I always get this error (right-bottom corner): http://wstaw.org/m/2011/12/09/plasma-desktopxJ1491.jpg [19:51] okay [19:52] it'd be nice to see what kind of error it actually was [19:58] Kottizen, ok in phonon , choose the fallback hdmi option that shows in the error ,if it's listed [19:59] Kottizen, you can check for phonon / pulseaudio errors in /var/log , if you feel like searching [19:59] BluesKaj: this is weird - only the first one causes that error - when I select any of the other ones and click Apply I don't get that error anymore [20:00] I'll do, thanks for the tup [20:00] tip [20:00] Kottizen, can you pastebin the phonon list settings pls [20:01] where do I find it? [20:02] Kottizen, the device preference tab in phonon [20:03] BluesKaj: http://wstaw.org/m/2011/12/09/plasma-desktopAn1491.jpg [20:04] Kottizen, does the choice shown in you paste test ok ? [20:04] your [20:05] BluesKaj: nope - I don't hear any sound when clicking 'Test' [20:07] Kottizen, in the terminal, cat /proc/asound/cards [20:09] BluesKaj: I found this to be interesting (pressed F6 in alsamixer and chose the HDMI nVidia): http://wstaw.org/m/2011/12/09/plasma-desktopjk1491.jpg [20:09] BluesKaj: and: http://privatepaste.com/0a36905a7f [20:12] ok Kottizen , cat /proc/asound/modules [20:13] evening to all [20:13] BluesKaj: http://privatepaste.com/82ce069475 [20:16] Kottizen, pulseaudio , in the terminal [20:16] is it installed [20:17] BluesKaj: yes [20:18] Kottizen, lets try without pulse , we can always reinstall if needed , sudo apt-get remove pulseaudio , then reboot [20:18] *rebooting* [20:19] hallo somebody use tangoGPS ??? [20:20] BluesKaj: got this upon login: http://wstaw.org/m/2011/12/09/plasma-desktopKx1514.jpg [20:20] haven't chosen anything yet [20:21] tangoGSM work with Google Sat??? [20:21] Kottizen, click yes [20:22] okay, done [20:22] ok Kottizen check your phonon device preferences [20:23] BluesKaj: got a somewhat longer list now; http://wstaw.org/m/2011/12/09/plasma-desktopvc1514.jpg [20:25] ok try the hdmis and the pchs as well to see what the default is [20:26] clicked 'Test' for each one of them now, heard no sound [20:26] I let each test run for like... three seconds or so [20:27] Kottizen, if you pass the cursor over the diffent choices the dialog will show some info, find the one gives 'Card 0' [20:28] Kottizen, what is the other end of the hdmi connected to ? [20:28] a home cinema [20:28] I get three with CARD=0 and a few with CARD=NVidia [20:28] and the home cinema worked fine on Windows, on the same physical machine [20:29] an are any of the hdmis card 0 ? [20:29] nope [20:31] card 0 is the default soundcard , so we need to change it , to the nvidia hdmi [20:32] that'd be card 1 - how do I change it? [20:33] not necessarily card 1 , open this file paste it , /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf [20:40] BluesKaj: http://privatepaste.com/9e01e7ca97 [20:46] Kottizen, I'm trying to determine what the hdmi module/driver could be , try, sudo lshw -C multimedia, and paste the output pls [20:46] BluesKaj: I'll be gone for an hour or so, just in case you wonder why I'm not replying [20:46] BluesKaj: http://privatepaste.com/3e3e86930b === aurimas is now known as aurimas__ [20:48] ok Kottizen just one more , lsmod | grep snd [20:51] Hello [20:51] Can someone help me please? [20:52] how do i run .bat files please through the terminal? [20:55] aurimas__, http://askubuntu.com/questions/46905/make-bat-file-available-everywhere-for-the-terminal [20:56] tyvm [20:59] time is [20:59] aurimas__: .bat files run in msdos [21:01] linxuser, im trying to run mcp and when i run it through wine it says i dont have java JDK which i do, what command do i use in termina? [21:02] Hi everyone, time for a stupid question. Currently running Ubuntu 11.10 64bit edition on my old spare laptop: 1.8GHz CPU, 2Gb RAM, 120 Gb HDD & Intel 965 Video. Sorry if I offend anyone but REALLY, for ME, Unity (including 2D version) sucks. It's slow as hell and counterproductive, and I've HAD IT! So it's time for a change. After hearing from a friend how well KDE runs nowadays, I might just give it a try. Having never tried it, the Question is: [21:02] Should I get the 32 or 64 bit version? Which would be more appropriate for this laptop?, and lastly, what are the Pros and Cons of running on version instead of the other on this system? Does a 64 bit OS really make ANY difference? Maybe someone can enlighten me. Sorry for the long post (and the venting.. ;)). Hoping someone can help me out here. [21:03] aurimas__: sorry about that. I rarely use windows and gave up on wine couple years ago [21:04] zors: I'd go with the 32bit [21:05] zors: do you know the precise cpu model? [21:06] for wine, at last, it works, when you install missing things over wine from windows, i did do that with a missing font and it worked great, so he/she may only should had it install something like sun java under wine [21:06] zors: ditto on the 32 bit. It'll load and run on either 32 or 64 bit machine while 64 bit will load/run on most 64 bit machines, likely all amd64s. [21:07] koleoptero: Yeah, sorry, Celeron M540 1.8 Ghz (single-core obviously) [21:09] zors: well I'd use 32bit if I were you, 64bit might be better for some server tasks but it has problems with flash and uses more RAM of which you don't have that much (I know because I also have 2gb ;)) [21:10] so yes go for 32bit [21:11] koleoptero: thanks for the help, will get the 32 bit ISO then. [21:11] np and welcome to the fold :) [21:13] koleoptero: the Flash problems w/ 64bit are a thing of the past [21:14] you mean by using the 64bit flash ppa? [21:16] koleoptero: that isn't even needed any more, at least not w/ Oneiric [21:17] thanks for telling me, I hadn't checked, my bad [21:17] I'd still recommend a 32bit install for a pc with 2gb of ram though [21:19] having problems reading a micro SD card. phone won't read it, windows can't format it, so i figured i'd try linux, but i can't even find it there [21:23] koleoptero, 64 bitt works fine on my 64bit amd single core cpu , with 2G RAM ..no lags [21:24] BluesKaj: there's no definite reason it shouldn't, but since it uses more ram than 32bit, and there's not much to gain from 64bit I'd prefer it [21:27] koleoptero, I tried 32 bit on the 64 bit pc , there wasn't much of an advantage in my experience , never noticed whether it used more ram for given application tho [21:29] BluesKaj: it generally does, and in some cases I've seen extreme differences, although sadly I haven't kept notes on it since most modern pcs that can run 64bit have exuberant amounts of ram which requires 64bit anyway [21:30] BluesKaj: Koeoptero> My own experience with this 2 yr old Intel 64 the other day tried 64 bit linux today running 32. 64 seemed slugish [21:32] so where do i find a usb device that doesn't mount itself? [21:32] this pc is pretty plain jane , 2 core amd cpu , 3G RAM, added a nvidia 7600gt and and m-audio 192 souncdard, seldom lags , but i don't run several apps at once , since I'm in a home setting === zz_r3v0 is now known as r3v0 [21:38] BluesKaj: http://privatepaste.com/a15f89b47c [21:42] BluesKaj: now that interests me, how does the m-audio card work in linux, everything fine? [21:47] koleoptero, after 10 days of configuring and learning abour alsabase,conf ..works great now [21:52] Kottizen, ok we need to make this module card 0 in the /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf file with root permissions . this line has to be added to the bottom of the file , options snd_hda_codec_hdmi index=0 [21:56] Kottizen, save the file . then do, sudo modprobe snd_hda_codec_hdmi , in the terminal ...a reboot is probly required. === r3v0 is now known as zz_r3v0 [22:13] Kottizen, ?? [22:28] BBL [22:32] BluesKaj: sorry - I lost internet for a while there [22:32] let's see now [22:32] (I got what you said) [22:36] BluesKaj: now I got: http://wstaw.org/m/2011/12/09/plasma-desktopDB1476.jpg [22:36] BluesKaj: and I'm left with: http://wstaw.org/m/2011/12/09/plasma-desktopvI1476.jpg [22:46] BluesKaj: when I did 'modprobe' I got an error saying see 'dmesg', and this is what it said: [ 657.568213] snd_hda_codec_hdmi: Unknown parameter `index [22:48] Kottizen, did you copy this line exactly , options snd_hda_codec_hdmi index=0 ? [22:49] yes [22:49] if I search for it on Google I get two hits, one on some kind of German site where people say it's not the right syntax (if I understood it correctly) [22:50] BluesKaj: here's my alsa-base.conf now: http://privatepaste.com/d1095aaad3 [22:51] and here's the German forum topic: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-p-6601037.html?sid=3ea0df6934f0db6652f0be3f37daf7fb#6601037 [22:53] Kottizen, btw , did you install the nvidia recommended graphics card in swystem>additional drivers? [22:53] BluesKaj: I did [22:54] ok [22:54] BluesKaj: should I give the post-release one a try? http://wstaw.org/m/2011/12/09/plasma-desktopCf1476.jpg [22:54] no [22:55] okay [22:56] Kottizen, obviously we' ve installed the wrong soundcard module , so take that line out in alsa.conf . [22:57] and modprobe it? [22:57] or is that necessary when removing? [22:58] no don't modprobe that module.that xcommand loads th module [22:59] you have 2 intel sound modules , exactly the same [22:59] I have removed that last line and rebooted the system now [23:01] do you have co-axial digital output on the onboard soundcard ? if so can you use that ? [23:01] BluesKaj: how would I check that? [23:03] kot , it's an orange coloured rca output jack ..looks analog but, it's digital , your sound receiver should have the same input [23:03] Kottizen,^ [23:03] oh [23:04] BluesKaj: does it look like the ones you put regular headphones in, or is it a little big bigger? [23:04] that's what I use , in alsamixer it's the spdif ctrl [23:05] the S/PDIF is set to 00 and I can't find any way to increase it [23:05] it looks like analog output jack used for old tape decks etc [23:05] use the up arrow key when it's highlighted [23:06] the only orange one I have is labelled 'CS-OUT' [23:06] but the amplifier doesn't have a matching one [23:07] bummer [23:07] now I remember [23:07] two months ago, when Kubuntu 11.10 was brand new, I installed it on my laptop [23:07] no digital coaxial inputs on the amplifier? [23:07] nope [23:07] I use the same HDMI cable for the laptop and I think someone mentioned something about a HDMI bug [23:07] optical? [23:08] the amplifier has that, but not the PC [23:08] if I want to reset everything as it was before, is it just to install pulseaudio? [23:08] which amp is it ? [23:09] a Yamaha RX-V371 [23:09] yes, install pulseaudio again [23:09] okay, sec [23:12] BluesKaj: I'm back - did a reboot too [23:14] Kottizen, http://reviews.cnet.com/av-receivers/yamaha-rx-v371/4505-6466_7-34533967.html , do you see the 2 jacks on the bottom left? [23:15] BluesKaj: yep [23:16] but uhm, I haven't got those, at least not there [23:16] let me see if I can find them somewhere else [23:16] do you have those on your amp ? one is an put the other an output [23:16] input [23:16] or which image are you referring to? [23:18] the first one the , the back panel [23:18] http://i.i.com.com/cnwk.1d/i/tim/2011/04/04/Yamaha_RX-V371_back.jpg?tag=mncol;rvwBody <-- I got those two, yes [23:19] then you cab try a regular rca cable from the coax jack on your pc to the input coax on the receiver [23:19] can [23:20] don't think I have one, but I could buy it tomorrow [23:23] that input will carry the dolby digtal 5.1 and DTS from the spdif /coax on your pc to the receiver if the video has those codecs in the soundtrack [23:24] ok , Kottizen , I have to go ..maybe we can set it up tomorrow [23:24] BluesKaj: just one more thing... how do I reset the Phonon configuration window to the way it looked before? [23:24] oh ok [23:25] so I get the 'device' tab back [23:25] pulseaudio , will be the only choice [23:25] installed that - do I have to configure it somehow? [23:26] spdif out if possible [23:27] sorry? [23:28] IEC958 in the hardware profile setting [23:29] audio hardware setup, Kottizen [23:30] uhm... I can't find it, but I'll try again tomorrow [23:42] Kottizen, install pavucontrol , it gives more connection options in pulseaudio
