| cmoman | any one here have issues with their machine not turning off after hitting shutdown. even shutdown -h -P now from the command line doesn't work. all the processes stop but the machine doesn't actually power down. An ASUS F3T laptop circa 2007. | 01:10 |
| cmoman | running Kubuntu Oneric | 01:11 |
| lethu | cmoman, suggest looking that up in the ubuntu official forum's | 01:11 |
| cmoman | yep, trawled lots of places, installed older kernels, played around with power management settings. | 01:12 |
| cmoman | installed different distos, looked through loads of dmesg logs. the machine behaved fine before Oneric | 01:13 |
| cmoman | Hunty6: have you checked your downloaded install image is all good? The alternative CD can help here sometimes too | 01:16 |
| lethu | cmoman, sorry can't help you here, I have no knowledge of this issue | 01:19 |
| lethu | but, I confirm that there are similar issues in Kubuntu | 01:20 |
| lethu | like for example if I set the laptop lid to switch off when closed while have kde's screensaver runing, it locks my computer and forces me to do a manual poweroff | 01:21 |
| cmoman | lethu: did you mean Ubunutu? | 01:21 |
| lethu | cmoman, nope Kubuntu | 01:21 |
| lethu | the Kde variant | 01:21 |
| cmoman | lethu: yes, even hibernate no longer works on my machine | 01:21 |
| lethu | same, I just don't use suspend to ram and hibernate | 01:22 |
| cmoman | I really like the improvements to KDE with 4.7 etc and Kontact but there aren't available on Lucid AFAIK | 01:23 |
| lethu | too bad | 01:24 |
| cmoman | I can live with hibernate and suspend but the not shutting down is becoming a niggle | 01:24 |
| lethu | I understand that | 01:25 |
| cmoman | I meant "I can live without hibernate and suspend but the not shutting down is becoming a niggle" | 01:25 |

| firstlast | hello all | 05:23 |
| what_if | hello | 05:24 |
| firstlast | how do I replace the default 'radeon' driver in Oneiric with 'fglrx' | 05:24 |
| what_if | open the "K" menu and type driver at the search box. Should bring up a tool called "additional drivers" | 05:25 |
| what_if | firstlast: if you have that installed... That GUI app is the easiest and best way | 05:25 |
| firstlast | what_if: X won't start for me, so I'm in the root console in recovery mode | 05:25 |
| what_if | oh, I see. thats a whole different story | 05:26 |
| firstlast | what_if: I've done 'sudo apt-get install fglrx' and it ran through its paces, but on reboot, no dice | 05:26 |
| firstlast | what_if: yes, I have a HD Radeon 6770 | 05:26 |
| what_if | firstlast: what error is there in your /var/log/Xorg.0.log file ?? | 05:27 |
| what_if | should tell you why X faild to start | 05:27 |
| firstlast | what_if: good point, it says: Failed to load module fglrx, module does not exist | 05:28 |
| firstlast | what_if: I thought installing it from apt-get would enable the driver and do al that hmm | 05:29 |
| firstlast | what_if: my ultimate goal is to use this driver to power 3 monitors through Eyefinity | 05:29 |
| what_if | firstlast: it should have worked automatically.... Something did not work out properly if the module is not found. | 05:30 |
| firstlast | what_if: if the regular radeon driver does it as well, i can stay with that, since I never play games....do you know if the open source driver can power 3 monitors as well? | 05:30 |
| firstlast | what_if: ok let me try again | 05:30 |
| what_if | firstlast: reading online states that you may need to do a " sudo apt-get remove --purge xorg-driver-fglrx fglrx* " | 05:31 |
| what_if | firstlast: then " sudo apt-get install --reinstall libgl1-mesa-glx libgl1-mesa-dri fglrx-modaliases " | 05:31 |
| what_if | firstlast: then " sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg " | 05:32 |
| firstlast | what_if: isn't that the opposite way though? replacing fglrx with the mesa driver | 05:32 |
| firstlast | what_if: i wish to do the converse: replace the open source mesa/radeon with fglrx | 05:32 |
| what_if | firstlast: sry about that. You should still purge the fglrx packages then reinstall them. | 05:34 |
| firstlast | what_if: ok thanks, let me try | 05:34 |
| what_if | I have had the problem before where a proprietary driver is installed under one kernel... then the kernel is updated. The driver thenn only exists for the old kernel. Must purge and reinstall to the updated/newer kernel :) | 05:36 |
| what_if | oh... and ensure "" fglrx-modaliases "" is installed | 05:37 |
| flexible | what_if: is there anyway to automate that process? i have to recompile my wireless drivers everytime i update the kernel and it is becoming tiresome... | 05:38 |
| what_if | flexible: you can make apt run any program you like after running an installation. However, as far as I know there is no easy way to do what you ask. You would have to custom write a script which mimics the manual steps you take. | 05:39 |
| flexible | what_if: so if i wrote a basic bash script (essentially cd'ing into the soure directory, make'ing then make install'ing) then i could have that executed by apt before reboot and after the kernel upgrade? | 05:41 |
| flexible | will this compile with the correct linux release? | 05:41 |
| what_if | flexible: you could do it with a bash script. Getting it to compile against the correct kernel... when you are not currently running that kernel is possible... but I do not know how to do it. :) | 05:42 |
| what_if | firstlast: any luck? | 05:47 |
| firstlast | what_if: it seems to have installed it, i was able to load the module with 'modprobe fglrx' in my root shell | 05:48 |
| firstlast | what_if now to reboot and see if X starts | 05:48 |
| what_if | allright. I will be here. Good luck :0 | 05:48 |
| what_if | :) | 05:48 |
| fabijan | ddh | 05:49 |
| fabijan | hi | 05:49 |
| firstlast | what_if: ugh, same problem, on picking the non-recovery mode option in Grub, it showed me the welcome screen and then the monitors turned off | 05:55 |
| firstlast | no signal | 05:55 |
| firstlast | what_if: maybe my xorg.conf is faulty | 05:55 |
| what_if | firstlast: whats the /var/log/Xorg.0.log error this time? | 05:55 |
| firstlast | what_if: rebooting now | 05:56 |
| what_if | firstlast: if you have an xorg.conf ... rename it to something else temporarily. Restarting the 'kdm' service should generate a new xorg.conf | 05:57 |
| what_if | ... by restarting X,org... | 05:57 |
| firstlast | what_if: same thing | 05:57 |
| firstlast | what_if: oh ok, let me try that | 05:57 |
| firstlast | what_if: i'll rename it and then try 'startx' eh | 05:58 |
| firstlast | what_if: wow it's showing me the same screen on all 3 monitors, mind you, i started it as root from the root shell | 05:59 |
| firstlast | what_if: also, this is with the radeon driver | 05:59 |
| what_if | firstlast: awesome. At least X is working now. | 05:59 |
| firstlast | what_if: ok should i reboot as a regular user now? | 06:00 |
| what_if | firstlast: yeah, try a reboot. It may have been the old config file screwing things up... | 06:00 |
| firstlast | what_if: ok | 06:00 |
| firstlast | what_if: sweet, KDE is now up as regular user, 3 screens triplicated, but one step at a time I guess | 06:05 |
| what_if | firstlast: awesome :) | 06:05 |
| firstlast | what_if: uh no widgets, taskbar, K button, nothing though, just the blank background....hmm | 06:05 |
| what_if | firstlast: thats odd.... | 06:06 |
| firstlast | what_if: Alt-tab shows me the 5 apps running in the background, but they won't show up when I select them, how odd | 06:06 |
| firstlast | what_if: ahh i crashed plasma and all my apps showed for a sec before it restarted, wth | 06:07 |
| what_if | firstlast: yeah... plasma is not yet perfect. | 06:07 |
| firstlast | what_if: wow completely unusable is more like it :P | 06:08 |
| firstlast | what_if: how do I disable plasma, I guess? | 06:08 |
| firstlast | what_if: perhaps I should focus on getting my xinerama or whatever working first, i guess | 06:10 |
| what_if | do not know how to disable plasma. | 06:10 |
| firstlast | what_if: ok no worries | 06:10 |
| what_if | you may also want to try disabling all desktop effects. | 06:10 |
| firstlast | what_if: maybe I should use the Restricted Drivers Manager now and get fglrx | 06:10 |
| what_if | firstlast: good call | 06:11 |
| firstlast | what_if: or just from the command line as before | 06:11 |
| what_if | the GUI tool is probably best. | 06:11 |
| firstlast | what_if: since i don't have the K Menu and don't know how to launch the gui from the command line | 06:11 |
| what_if | hmmm... yeah. What an odd problem | 06:12 |
| what_if | commandline it is | 06:12 |
| firstlast | what_if: ah it's 'systemsettings' in the cmd line | 06:14 |
| joshwines | Hey all, quick question, is there anybody running Kubuntu 12.04 and finding it stable enough for a daily machine? | 06:15 |
| cjae | is there not a control module for ufw fiewall for kde 4? | 06:16 |
| cjae | ive read about it but only see gufw | 06:16 |
| firstlast | what_if: actually, i was able to unify all 3 displays, so that's perfect | 06:18 |
| firstlast | what_if: now to reboot and hope Plasma behaves nicely | 06:18 |
| * what_if crosses fingers | 06:19 | |
| what_if | :) | 06:19 |
| firstlast | what_if: same Plasma problem, damn | 06:26 |
| what_if | firstlast: I have no idea on the plasma problem. | 06:26 |
| firstlast | what_if: and also, all 3 screens are the same again, it didn't save my changes, sure hope I don't have to set the screens to be to the left and right of each other after every boot | 06:26 |
| firstlast | what_if: launching systemsettings as root now | 06:28 |
| firstlast | what_if: i just realized that might be a bad idea, but doing it as a reg user doesn't let it stick hmm | 06:30 |
| what_if | firstlast: I have to change my screen setup every thime I reboot here... using the Nvidia driver. If you find an an easy fix, let me know :) | 06:31 |
| what_if | but then again I change my setup multiple times a day depending on what I'm doing... so no big deal for me | 06:31 |
| firstlast | what_if: well, you usually set the screens to the left and right of each other in xorg.conf, but that file doesn't even exist here | 06:31 |
| cjae | is there not a control module for ufw fiewall for kde 4? | 06:33 |
| what_if | firstlast: looks like you may need to run ' Xorg -configure ' to generate an xorg.conf file. | 06:34 |
| firstlast | what_if: ah, sweet, lemme try | 06:34 |
| what_if | firstlast: by default, the new Xorg autodetects everything fresh, and remembers nothing :/ | 06:34 |
| firstlast | what_if: serious? that sounds idiotic... | 06:35 |
| what_if | firstlast: welll... I semi-agree. For the non-tech user this is an amazing benefit. Unplug old monitor, replace with new. Xorg auto configures. | 06:40 |
| what_if | for multi monitor setups... like you and I... its a PITA... | 06:40 |
| firstlast | what_if: yes, especially 3 monitors, which is a whole other level of PITA-ness | 06:40 |
| firstlast | what_if: i take it all back, it remembered and all 3 are in a row from L-R as I'd configured | 06:41 |
| firstlast | what_if: thank you for all your help, you've been awesome :) | 06:42 |
| what_if | firstlast: no problem. I don't sleep as much as is "normal" so I'm glad to help. Gives me something to do, keeps me in-practice | 06:42 |
| what_if | :) | 06:43 |
| firstlast | what_if: haha cool, ok i'm crashing now, been a long day, night | 06:43 |
| what_if | gnight | 06:43 |

| BrokenKubuntu | so adding a .xinitrc breaks kubuntu??? | 19:37 |
| genii-around | BrokenKubuntu: Shouldn't. But it might depend upon what you put in the file, too. | 19:40 |
| BrokenKubuntu | just one command, xmodmap .Xmodmap | 19:41 |
| genii-around | Might want to change that to /etc/X11/Xsession & xmodmap .Xmodmap & | 19:42 |
| BrokenKubuntu | alright, there any tricks to get it to boot? Right now I'm stuck with a blank screen and blinking cursor | 19:44 |
