AndroidLoverInSFif i have ubuntu 11.04 and installed the kde package, and use that primarily, to upgrade to 11.10, do i follow the ubuntu directions (then install kde packages), or do i run the 11.04 -> 11.10 from kde?00:21
dahliais there another package I can install to listen to shoutcast? I was using amarok but I couldnt figure out the UI and it stopped working completely00:25
Renegade15both vlc and smplayer should be able to listen to shoutcast streams00:26
dahliaty Ill try those00:26
dahliaI tried installing mplayer but it doesnt seem to work either00:27
Renegade15what exactly are you looking for?00:28

Renegade15have you looked at songbird? http://getsongbird.com/00:30
dahliaId prefer to just use whatever I can install from aptitude first00:30
Renegade15looks like they killed the linux version anyway00:32
* Renegade15 is behind the times00:32
dahliahmmm is there a linux winamp?00:33
what_ifxmms / xmms200:33
dahliaoh I remember trying that once and totally failing lol00:34
Renegade15those two are problematic, imo00:35
westmiVLC WORKS PRETTY GOOD00:35
westmicrap sory about the caps00:35
Renegade15xmms was awesome, but it's outdated/discontinued00:35
Renegade15and xmms2 is still in preview releases, as far as I can see00:35
Renegade15wasn't very feature-rich/stable last I tried it, though that's admittedly been a while00:36
what_ifahhh.. looks like I'm behind on xmms :)00:36
dahliainstalling smplayer, vlc, and xmms2. will see how they work00:36
Renegade15wikipedia says the last stable was on 16 Nov 200700:36
Renegade15a pity, really...it was as close as you could get to winamp00:37
dahliavlc seems to be working :)00:39
dahliaanyone know how to set it as default player when I download a stream playlist on firefox?00:40
dahliaoh and ty for suggestions :)00:40
Renegade15in the system settings, there's the app preference thingy00:40
Renegade15in FF, in the Preferences, you have the Applications settings00:41
Renegade15those would be my places to start, though I didn't set that up myself00:41
Renegade15System Settings -> Hardware area -> Multimedia is what I mean00:42
dahliaah ok I was looking in file associations00:42
Renegade15my firefox actually has icecast and shoutcast playlists as already existing application types I can configure00:43
Renegade15so go there, I'd guess ;)00:43
dahlialol I cant even find preferences in FF00:45

Renegade15how so?00:48
dahlianot knowing where to look for things00:48
dahliaand amarok was totally confusing to me too00:49
Renegade15eh00:49
dahliaI dont see well and I didnt understand the icons00:49
* Renegade15 never liked Amarok00:49
dahliahmmm FF says VLC for a lot of applications00:49
dahliaso maybe its working just from installing vlc and deleting amarok00:50
dahliaty :)00:50
Renegade15VLC is a very solid player and among the best open source products there are - you should have no issues with it00:51

ZacariasOk, I changed my computer's name using this link http://www.tech-recipes.com/rx/2732/ubuntu_how_to_change_computer_name/    (I changed the two files) and now I'm stuck at the kdm login screen. Whenever I enter my username and password, it loops back to the login window with an empty password. Any help?02:13
ZacariasI can login via the console, however02:14
DarthFrogZacarias: Two files?  What two files?  /etc/hostname is the only one you needed to edit.02:30
ZacariasDarthFrog: In the commentaries there were several ones advising to change /etc/hosts also. I did it before restarting02:34
DarthFrogBut just hosts and hostname?  That's not what's causing your GUI login problem, I shouldn't think.  However, since you can login at the console, change them back and see if it makes any difference.02:36

CainMadnessI am having a problem getting plasma themes to work. I install them with the built-in theme lists, shows an uninstall button.. But I can't find them in the list to choose from, to change theme. What did I break?02:40
DarthFrogCainMadness: I don't know but you get to keep both pieces! :-)  Did you log out and log back in again?  I don't know if that makes any difference, though.02:42
CainMadnessI went even so far to restart the netbook.02:43
CainMadnessStill not showing in the list. Puzzling.02:43
ZacariasDarthFrog: Iloged in with the console. I tried to run sudo gedit /etc/hosts and it tells me "sudo: unable to resolve host My Computer's Name"02:46

DarthFrogZacarias:  Or boot from a LiveCD,  mount your systems root partition in the live environment and then edit the file.03:16
ZacariasDarthFrog: I was able to open the file with nano instead of gedit. But I don't know what to do with it now03:16
DarthFrogChange it such that the name in /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts (for 127.0.0.1) are the same.03:17
DarthFrogYou don't need to have your hostname in /etc/hosts. "127.0.0.1 localhost" is perfectly acceptable.03:19
ZacariasDarthFrog: ok, I'll try that03:23
ZacariasDarthFrog: I deleted all the mentions to my hostname in /etc/hosts  But I keep having the same problem. Login screen, then some visual noise in the screen, then the login again03:30
DarthFrogZacarias:  Your hostname is set in /etc/hostname.  Somewhere, there is a misconfiguration.  Change that name back to exactly what it was before.03:32
ZacariasDarthFrog: yes, I'll try that too03:33
ZacariasDarthFrog: Yes, that solved the problem. Is there a rule for creating hostname's? I have a hostname with two words like this "myname-xubuntu" (I was using Xubuntu before), and I tried to change ut to "Myname Ubuntu". What was the problem, do you know?03:41
DarthFrogZacarias: You can name your computer anything you want, in one word.  But I would presume that you introduced a conflict by changing the name by hand.03:42
DarthFrogYou could try "sudo hostname <new name>", which is a better way to do it.03:43
ZacariasDarthFrog: Or by the fact that there where two separate words, maybe? Anyway, thanks for your help!03:44
DarthFrogTwo words?  I would think that might have caused the problem.03:44
ZacariasDarthFrog: Yes, the name I tried was "Carlos Ubuntu" (Carlos is my name, of course).03:46
DarthFrogHmm, it seems that the hostname command doesn't make a permanent change and that editing /etc/hostname by hand is the way to do it. :-)  "man hostname" for details.03:46
DarthFrogZacarias: Try "Carlos_Ubuntu"03:46
ZacariasDarthFrog: Ok!03:46
ZacariasDarthFrog: I'll try that.03:46

ralf_hi10:47
ralf_i've got a question, i'm developing a qt based media and game library10:47
ralf_i'm looking for a way to list the installed games10:47
ralf_or list installed packages from the 'games and amusement' category10:48
ralf_i have some less than ideal ideas such as parsing the system menu10:49
ralf_is there a better way?10:49
ts2ralf_: use the apt/dpkg database, if you're only interested in Debian/Ubuntu based distros10:50
ts2QApt is the library that things like muon use to interface with dpkg/apt -> https://launchpad.net/qapt10:51
ralf_thanks for the tip but I don't think I would be able to make use of that since I use Lua10:55
ralf_and lqt as the qt binding10:55
ralf_i can use dpkg --get-selections to list the installed packages10:58
ralf_i just need to set a 'games' filter10:58
ts2yeah, your best bet is to use popen dpkg10:58
ralf_or use qprocess and read the input10:59
ts2qprocess does popen ;)10:59
ralf_ok then how to filter the dpkg output to categories11:00
ralf_reading the man page atm11:00
ts2ralf_: maybe just parsing /var/lib/dpkg/status will help11:02
ralf_ok thanks, that might be useful11:07
ralf_another question11:07
ralf_i would like to install a global shortcut for my app11:07
ts2you need to create a .desktop file for your app, and place it in /usr/share/applications11:08
ts2the format is INI style, you mostly just need an Type, Exec, and Name entry, then it should appear in the menu11:09
ralf_but officially, as in add a KDE component  in System Settings > Global Keyboard Shortcuts, and then list the shortcuts in there11:09
ralf_ok let's see11:10
ts2oh, a keyboard shortcut11:10
ts2that's a little different11:11
ts2to use the KDE shortcut system, you need a KDE application (using the KDE libraries), but Qt allows for global shortcuts as far as I know11:11
ralf_the .desktop info is useful too, thanks for that11:12
ralf_actually i could iterate over all the desktop shortcuts for installed games, answers my first question ;)11:14
ralf_but afaik qt does not support global shortcuts11:14
ts2I've never really tried to create a global shortcut, usually I'm only interested in shortcuts when my app has focus11:16
ralf_i'd like to assign the media control buttons11:21
ralf_y'know, play, next, previous, volume control etc11:21
ralf_purpose of those is somewhat defeated if you need to focus the player first11:21
ts2you probably need to use the KDE libs, or X directly for that11:21
ts2KDE has a daemon that listens for all events and passes them along to the app11:22
ralf_dbus?11:22
ts2via dbus, yes11:22
ralf_i noticed you can import keyboard shortcut schemes in global shortcut settings11:24
ralf_so maybe I could just create a file and then import that11:24
ts2the thing is, KDE would have no way to inform your application that the shortcut was activated unless it was registered with the KDE system (at least, that's how I understand it)11:25
ralf_i'm looking at an exported kksrc file11:28
ralf_for example11:28
ralf_[yakuake][Global Shortcuts]11:28
ralf_toggle-window-state=F1211:28
ralf_maybe the first field would be the window class11:29
ralf_the second row the function in the app to call11:29
ralf_then the last field the key11:29
ralf_but that's probably wishful thinking11:29
ts2I doubt there is a system to directly call methods in a foreign application11:30
ralf_ok, last question for now11:34
ralf_you've been helpful so far, thx :)11:34
ralf_i would like to trigger a function when a usb device is connected11:35
ralf_through qt if possible11:35
ts2ralf_: that's not really possible in plain Qt, though you could probably do it with QtDBus and listen for signals from the system bus11:36
ralf_ok, i do not have the qtdbus library anyway11:37
ralf_so forget about that for now11:37
ts2there is also the Qt Mobility API, but that's a separate set of libraries build on Qt11:38
ralf_i'm restricted to the libs lqt offers me11:39
=== benji is now known as Guest33343
=== Guest33343 is now known as PadurKaril
PadurKarilHI11:41
ralf_maybe another tiny question11:43
ralf_in my app, i need to browse for an executable11:43
ralf_I can check whether the file is executable, but not whether it is the one i'm looking for11:44
ralf_so i would need to look into the file and get stuff such as the description and version11:45
ralf_so i'm looking at some ELF documentation11:45
ralf_and commands such as 'file' and 'strings'11:45
ralf_but i don't think they do what i want11:46

pardook, let me a moment. I show you in a few seconds17:06

danieleexactly sicily, but we're not as the godfather shows you man :D we're mostly great people17:16
pardook, read this please: The problem is that to install LibreOffice, I must first uninstall OpenOffice. So first try to uninstall Openoffice with this line of code: sudo apt-get purge openoffice. For console but when I enter my password and I enter, it shows me this error: Violation of the segment.17:17
BluesKajpardo, keep open office for now , libreoffice is broken17:18

pardothanks BluesKaj, I'll be watching :)17:21
danieleit happens with any program you try to uninstall?17:21
pardoI try uninstal only this.17:22
BluesKajdaniele,  the libreoffice is partly installed but it can't finish installing due to the broken dependencies some other apps also require . You can try purging the partly installe libre office manually by purging but I doubt that it will work17:24
BluesKajpardo ^17:24
BluesKajsorry daniele , that was meant for pardo17:25

BarkingFishmozzy: first of all,  please don't use enter as a punctuation mark :)  You can type two or three lines without flooding safely :)18:34
mozzyoh gosh18:34
mozzylol18:34
mozzyok then, ill try to keep it all to one line and condense18:34
BarkingFishanyhow, try to reinstall muon-installer - you can use this command:  sudo apt-get install muon-installer --reinstall18:35
mozzydeal, ty18:36
mozzyi was missing the --reinstall part, ill add it to my notes ty18:36
BarkingFishif you can't get it to work, there are other graphic package managers within kubuntu, which are nicer than muon anyway! :)18:36
* BarkingFish is biased, but likes apper18:36
mozzyoh ya!?!18:36
mozzy:)18:36
mozzythought there might be18:37
BarkingFishhi again wesker__ - I saw your post up above. We don't deal with KDE2 or with FreeBSD here - if you have questions about KDE, they go in #kde - FreeBSD questions in ##freebsd :)18:38
mozzyinvalid operation, I tryed sudo apt-get muon-installer(andinstaller) --reinstall18:40
mozzybrb18:40
BarkingFishok18:40
BarkingFishthat's cause I gave you the command the wrong way round, mozzy - sorry :)18:41
BarkingFishIt should be: sudo apt-get install --reinstall muon-installer18:41
utenteis there a boot option like this "cdrom-detect/try-usb=true" however for HD or partitions?18:54
utenteanyone home?18:56
mozzyty BarkingFish the command worked and reinstalled muon perfectly, unfortunatly the error remains19:02
mozzy"Executable: muon-installer PID: 1820 Signal: Segmentation fault (11)"19:03
BarkingFishhm19:03
mozzya lib perhaps?19:03
BarkingFishare you able to use any of the other gui package managers?19:03
mozzynow its PID 191919:03
BarkingFishpossibly. which version of kubuntu are you on19:03
mozzy11.1019:03
mozzyfresh install19:03
mozzyran all updates and dpkg hung19:04
mozzyhad to do a dpkg --configure -a for it to sort itself out19:04
BarkingFishmozzy: try using apper and see how you get on19:04
BarkingFishand I'll look into muon-installer and see what the heck is going on19:04
mozzyok, whats the terminal command19:05
mozzyTY19:05
mozzyits happened on 3 PCs now, that i know of19:05
BluesKajI wish the devs would issue a bug about muon , this is becoming a pita , and it hasn't been stable since it's inception19:05
mozzyupdates can be killers on any operating system19:06
BarkingFishmozzy: if you're in a GUI, just press ALT + F2 and type apper, hit enter and it will go from there19:06
mozzymore testing is required19:06
mozzyok19:06
BluesKajmozzy,  forget muon , use apper or apt-get in the terminal19:06
BarkingFishI say we send this back to upstream, BluesKaj - muon is not good.19:06
BarkingFishlet me have a work in the dev channel19:07
BarkingFish*word19:07
mozzyok, no luck with apper run command19:07
mozzymust not be installed19:07
mozzyTY19:07
BluesKajBarkingFish,  they're aware of it upstream I'm sure , the dam thing has never worked from the get-go19:07
mozzythink ill need to do up apper via terminal19:08
BluesKajhmm, apper doesn't seem to be listed in kmenu>apps>system19:09
BarkingFishmozzy: sudo apt-get install apper19:09
mozzywill do barkingfish ty19:09
BarkingFishBluesKaj: I have it right at the top of the K button, System - Apper (Software Management)19:10
BarkingFishi gotta go out guys, be back in about 50 mins or so.19:11
mozzyok19:11
mozzycya later, thx again19:11
BarkingFishnp19:11
BluesKajBarkingFish,  I probly removed it a while back in one of my cleanup apps ai never use moods :)19:11
mozzyahhh, apper is nice :)19:12
mozzygoing to test install a few things, see how it reacts19:12
BluesKajdumped all the relevant dirs and folders for akonadi , now I'm about to do the same for nepomuk . usr/bin, usr/lib, usr/share etc19:13

ViktoriousQuick question, I'm running out of space on a virtual installation, so I create a new virtual hard drive so I can move /home over to that harddrive. I only have the following question:20:05
ViktoriousIf I set the mount point of say /dev/sdb1 as /home, and edit my fstab then it should work right? But then what happens when the system mounts my other hard drive, which has "/" as a mount point??20:06
ViktoriousSince /home would be a part of "/" anyway?20:06
daneshari am using a wi-fi dongle. its asking for network name in hidden network . what to give the name ????20:06
BarkingFishdaneshar: you can only connect to a hidden wifi network if you know the SSID it uses to broadcast20:12
BarkingFishif you don't know the name of the network, you're stuck. Ask whoever administers the network, assuming you're supposed to have access to it :)20:12
danesharhow i can do that ?20:13
BarkingFishall networks have a name to broadcast under - some hide the name so that only authorised persons can connect to it - they'd be given the details by the owner of the network.  If there's a hidden network, and you don't know its name, the chances are you're not meant to be on it.  If you are, speak to whoever owns or runs the network.20:15
klguwesker_, yes my system is on my language20:15
danesharhow to scan that ?20:17
klguwesker_, thanks for your help I have to go see if I fix it later. to another bye20:18
wesker_Good luck20:19
BarkingFishdaneshar: You can't scan for the name of a hidden network. That's the whole reason it's hidden :P20:20
danesharthen how to connect other network ?20:21
wesker_all the secret actually is clearly =)))20:22
wesker_<daneshar Network manager installed?20:23
Snowhogdaneshar: If there isn't another "unhidden" network in the scan, then you can't.20:23
BarkingFishdaneshar: if you're using network manager, it should show a list of networks which are available.  if there's one in the list you have permission to access, like a public wifi, click it and you'll be asked for its password if it has one.  enter the password and wait, and you'll get connected20:23
BarkingFishif there is nothing else in that list, no wifi networks other than a hidden one are available20:23
danesharthanks buddy now i understand !20:24
wesker_are you sure that you are an access point?20:26

josmHi, im having issues with my sources.list. Trying to add only php5 packages from dotdeb but its unable to find Packages.gz.21:37
Snowhogjosm: What is the entry you have in sources.list for dotdeb?21:51
josmdeb http://packages.dotdeb.org stable php521:51
Snowhogjosm: That isn't correct. What version of Kubuntu are you running?21:52
josmSnowhog: Ubuntu 10.04.3 LTS21:53
josmThe syntax might be wrong, but it should at least be the same for all ubuntu/debian servers21:53
Snowhogjosm: See http://www.dotdeb.org/instructions/ for instructions on adding the entry for your sources.list as well as getting the gpg key.21:58
josmSnowhog: yes i did that initially. Problem is, I dont want to use the other packages, like mysql, from dotdeb21:59
josmSnowhog: I just want to use php5 and nginx21:59
josmAnd I must use the sources.list, since im gona do the same on several machines. automatic distribution of sources.list via puppet22:00
josmAnd for what I can find in man sources.list, its supposed to work the way I think. Perhaps *if* there is an packages.gz in the php5 directory?22:01
josmSnowhog: thanks for looking into it22:06
Snowhogjosm: Try changing the entry to this:  deb http://packages.dotdeb.org/dists/ stable php522:08
josmSnowhog: Packages.gz  404  Not Found22:09
josm:(22:09
josmit says dists/dists actualy22:12
Snowhogjosm: I don't think you are going to be able to do what you want - limit to php5 package only. The Packages.gz files are only in the ../dist/stable/all/binary-* directories.22:20
josmperhaps. But how do one control which repos, specific packages should be fetched from?22:22
josmwas reading about apt-pinning, but i have always thought it were to hold a package at a version22:23
josmnot control repo22:23
josmDefault is to install the package with highest version number. And I dont want mysql to be updated from a less stable repository22:25
