ray1clawhello, i have a problem and need help: i installed kubuntu-full onto my ubuntu laptop (asus k53ta - llano a6, radeon 6650m), i reboot, and now i have no display.. it all goes black, and i can hear the login sounds though. Anyone?00:43
lolcatray1claw: Can you get a terminal up?00:44
designbybeckray1claw: can you press CTRL + ALT + F200:44
designbybecki can't login after a new clean install00:45
ray1clawnot on normal boot.. but i can do it in recovery mode00:45
ray1clawlolcat, designbybeck ^00:45
designbybeckis yours 64bit ray1claw?00:46
ray1clawdesignbybeck, yep00:47
designbybeckalthough come to think of it i had ubuntu 64 bit and added kubuntu-desktop00:47
designbybeckcould go log into either desktop environment00:48
ray1clawdesignbybeck, i think you can get through 'cuz you got a fresh install, just go into terminal from recovery, remove the commenting on the partner repos in sources.list, and then instal fglrx.. its worked for me before00:48
ray1clawits the same with ubuntu..00:48
designbybeckhmmmm00:48
designbybecklet me try that ray00:49
ray1clawlolcat, any ideas?00:49
designbybeckit will not let me login anyway  ray1claw00:50
designbybecki can pull up a terminal but it doesn' take my install00:50
ray1claware you on wifi?00:50
lolcatray1claw: Just choose gdm as your login manager again?00:51
ray1clawlolcat, i think i only have lightdm and kdm installed.. and lightdm is default i think00:51
ray1clawdesignbybeck, if ur on wifi.. i dont think it'll let u access the net.. you gotta push a cable in00:52
designbybecki am on cable00:52
designbybeckbut this is the first restart from installing00:52
ray1clawdesignbybeck, you gotta first open up /etc/apt/sources.list in nano or something.. then uncomment the partner part.. then install fglrx00:53
designbybecki can't log in any way00:53
ray1clawdesignbybeck, last comment http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-1859289.html00:53
designbybeckgui or cli00:53
ray1clawdesignbybeck, not even though recovery mode?00:53
ray1clawbooting into recovery and going into netroot?00:54
ray1clawlolcat, i have the cli in recovery open, help me if you can please00:54
designbybeckhow do i get to recovery mode?00:54
ray1clawdesignbybeck, reboot, then keep shift pressed.. grub menu will pop up, choose reovery there00:55
designbybeckray1claw: i had recovery mode with ubuntu00:55
designbybeckray1claw: i got to recovery menu00:58
ray1clawdesignbybeck, read what i wrote above00:59
designbybecki am going through it00:59
designbybeckwell i still can login with sudo or anything therefore i don't have root and i can't ediut that file ray1claw01:03
designbybeckit recovery mode it shows i'm root01:03
designbybeckooh wait a sec01:04
designbybecki might be on to soemthing01:05
designbybeck*face palm*01:05
designbybecki normally don't use my first name whne doing an install... this time it looks like i did, and it defaulted to that as my username01:05
designbybeck:) well i solved my problem thatnks ray1claw... now let's figure yours out01:06
ray1clawdesignbybeck, nice01:09
designbybeckray1claw: your problems seems to be along the same lines01:13
designbybeckor at least whatwe thought mine was.... the ati drivers01:13
ray1clawdesignbybeck, yep they are, the only kicker is, i already got fglrx installed fine and running for me for a couple of days01:20
designbybeckmaybe an update? or rollback?01:21

arshinatorhi can anyone tell me if there is someway i can transfer files between two laptops running kubuntu using ethernet05:32
nafgarshinator: What kind of network are they on?05:34
arshinatornafg: there is no network as such.....i have just connected both of them using an ethernet (crossover) cable05:35
nafgSo I think you have to (a) give both of them a static ip05:36
arshinatorand then?05:37
nafgThen (b) I think one should have an ssh or ftp server installed05:37
arshinatorwell i just have some movies in my desktop which i want to transfer to my laptop05:37
nafgI can't guarantee there isn't a better way, but try sudo apt-get install openssh-server on one, then open fish:<ip address> in dolphin.05:38

Tm_Tdesignbybeck: yup, KDE shortcuts are like that, accelerator + key (and combination of multiple of both)12:31
designbybeckhmmm, no way to change that Tm_T?12:31
Tm_Tdesignbybeck: no sensible way, no as far as I know12:32

designbybeckI'm back at work for the first time with my new Kubuntu install. My main system is a Dell 17 Studio, that I plug into a Dell Monitor with a Display Port. I was hoping it would be plug and play16:06
designbybeckBut the display port isn't displaying. In the Display Settings it shows it is connected16:06
designbybeckand lets me select size and such. I want it on the left side of my laptop display, I select that and nothing save/apply and nothing seems to push to the displayport16:07
designbybeckI have an ATI Radon Moblity 4000 Series graphics card. Do i need to install the ATI drivers  before it will work? Also does ATI screw up how nice my Kubuntu install is running now? :(16:08
BluesKajdesignbybeck,  lspci -nn | grep VGA , should tell us which graphics card then we can determine which driver is required16:17

BluesKajdesignbybeck,  ok , do you have the ati catalyst installed ?16:19
designbybeckno i do not BluesKaj, this is a clean install of Kubuntu16:23
designbybeckI had it installed when I was using Ubuntu 11.10 64bit16:23
designbybeckthis is Kubuntu 11.10 64bit16:23
designbybeckdo I just install it the same way? I always had oddities with ATI in Ubuntu Gnome/Unity. I hope I don't with Kubuntu, It is running so purdy' right now16:24
BluesKajI'm not totally up on the latest ati  ctl apps , buy i thought the catalyst gave you a gui control interface with switching options16:24
designbybeckAlso I used StartUp Disk Creator in Ubuntu to make Bootable USB Drives , what should I use in Kubntu for that16:24
designbybeckIt does have that BluesKaj, I was just worried it make make things clunky or something under Kubuntu, But I guess I have to give it a try16:25
BluesKajdesignbybeck,  it's just a gui , not a daemon16:25

designbybeckSo I should just download the drivers that are for Ubuntu 11.10 and that should work with Kubuntu 11.1016:26

designbybeckOk BluesKaj, I now have both displays working. But all desktop effects and display rendering is torn and choppy and ugly :(17:17
designbybeck:((17:17
BluesKajdesignbybeck, is your graphics onboard or pci ?17:19
designbybeckLaptop17:19
designbybeckDell 17 Studio17:19
BluesKajusing VGA output17:19
BluesKaj?17:19
designbybeckATI Mobliity Radeon HD 465017:19
designbybeckDisplayPort17:20
BluesKajsorry dunno displayport17:20
designbybeckthis is kinda what it does with Ubuntu Gnome/Unity, it just draws the windows ugly and harsh, I don't have desktop effects anymore17:20
designbybeckIts when I install the ATI drivers17:20
BluesKajok, but without the ati drivers , you have displyport out put at all ?17:21
BluesKajno displayport output , that is17:21
designbybeckwell it seems i had to install the ATI drivers before I can get the display port working17:21
designbybeckbut that is when i lost all the pretty stuff17:21
designbybeckcorrect17:22
BluesKajis there way to turn the laptop display off while still displaying thru the port ?17:23
=== mgagne is now known as wftl
designbybeckmaybe, but i use it as  my 2nd monitor17:23
BluesKajare they cloned or ?17:24
designbybeckno i finally got them off cloned17:25
designbybeckso they are handeling correctly as far as side by side and i can move windows from one desktop to the other BluesKaj17:26
designbybeckI'm on Dells tech support to see if I can get an NVIDIA card for this laptop!17:28
BluesKajdesignbybeck,  ok , open system settings>app appearance>style>graphical effects , choose whatever works , probly hi res and hi cpu , dunno if that will work , but it's worth a try17:30
designbybeckok Thanks for your help BluesKaj17:31
BluesKajdesignbybeck,  the higher graphics/cpu settings will of course drain your battery power pretty quickly17:33
designbybeckBluesKaj: I hardly EVER run this sucker on battery17:33
designbybeck4gb of ram, Intel i7, 17" display17:34
designbybeck1GB video card17:34
BluesKajyeah , hi ngraphics pretty weel requires the ac dongle17:34
BluesKaj.I have an entry level acer laptop that my daughter is supposed to return to me sometime this spring ... handy when we're outside in the summer .. I miss it17:36
BluesKajtthat's a nice laptop , designbybeck , by the look of the hardware it should handle your graphics requirements without any problem17:38
designbybeckright as far as the specs go17:38
designbybeckbut ATI on Linux has always caused me pain!!17:38
designbybecki have desktop computers with onboard intel cards that run GREAT!17:39
BluesKajyeah agreed , I went nvidia , even a couple of elcheapo cards are worth it17:39
BluesKaji have 2 linux desktops with 7600gt and 8400gs cards17:40
designbybeckthose are NVIDIA right?17:40
BluesKajyup17:40
designbybeckmaybe i'll have to gjust get my own personal laptop and use it for work as well17:41
designbybeckDell Tech support said they didn't have an NVIDIA card for my laptop17:42
BluesKajI bought the 7600 from a friend and the 8400 from an online seller...the 7600 altho it's a bit old is working very well , better then 8400 IMO17:42
designbybeckah17:43
designbybeckhow much ram do they have?17:43
BluesKajlemme check17:43
designbybeckBluesKaj:  it looks like some kind of error between ATI and OpenGL I'm guessing17:47
designbybeckKwin17:47
designbybeckHmmm from this one post i read, Going to  System Settings >Desktop Effects and Advanced : Unchecking VSync and it clean things up17:50
designbybeckWell this made me a happy camper!!! :D17:53
designbybeck*fingers crossed!*17:54
BluesKaj7600gt has 256 RAM, the 8400 refuses to give ,,think it floats up to 51217:54
designbybeckcool17:54
BluesKajthe 8400 was only 40 bucks online , and it's a pcie17:55
BluesKajthe command is , sudo lspci -v | less ... there may be a more effewctive command , but I forgot to add it to my cli commands list17:57

yvjThanks a ton ubottu... can u advice on one more thing..18:01
yvjI am a bioinformatician... and I was wondering if there are any other chatrooms or groups that support the cause18:02
designbybeckwhat does that mean yvj?18:02
yvjMy initials!!18:03
designbybecklol no18:03
designbybeckthe bioinformatician18:03
yvjohh..18:03
yvji get it..18:03
yvjsorry. my bad.. i was looking for some help regarding the ongoing projects in the area of bioinformatics...18:04
yvjand therefore wanted to ask if chat rooms exist in that particula area18:04
designbybeckwhat does that do? or for?18:04
DarthFroga bioinformatician is a statistican specialising in biology.18:04
designbybeckHMMmm18:05
yvjwell.. also protein design, protein engineering and many other aspects of biology that need some computation18:05
designbybecki take it you are using Kubuntu yvj? Do you use all OSS for bioinformatician?18:06
designbybeckor in the field of biology18:06
yvjno18:06
yvjdo you mean open sound... then no18:06
designbybeckOpen Source Software = OSS18:06
yvjwell.. there are open source softwares available..18:07
yvjtheir numbers are increasing day by day..18:07
yvjmany pple use their own perl, python and java program..18:07
yvjalong with R for statistical analysis18:07
designbybeckdo you use any? The reason I'm asking, is I work for a university doing faculty development. I am always looking for more OSS to teach and showcase to faculty18:07
designbybeckWe hvae a few using R, we are hoping to do a workshop on that soon18:08
yvjwell.. i know perl and python applications in the area of bioinformatics...18:08
yvjwow..18:08
yvjthats cool..18:08
yvji am kinda dabbling in R right now18:08
=== boofman is now known as GhOsTFaCe
designbybecknice!18:09
designbybeckthe bad thing about what i do is just the research on finding some of the software, I don't know all the "biology" or stats side and what they need or could do with it18:09
yvjoh.. i could lend u a hand in that..18:10
designbybeckthat would be great18:10
designbybeckwhere are you from yvj?18:10
yvjif you could give me the details of the package.. then i could go through it and get back to you..18:10
yvjas far as the biology is concerned18:10
yvji am in virginia, usa18:10
yvjwhat ab u?18:11
designbybeckNice, I'm in west central Texas18:11
yvjwow18:11
yvjgreat18:11
yvjwhen are u online.. generally.. and this is my first time with IRC.. so what other channels can u suggest..18:12
designbybeck:)18:14
designbybeckmost of the time from 8-5pm CST18:14
designbybeckand randomly after that in the evenings18:14
designbybeckhere are some of the channels I am in: #bigbluebutton, #gimp, #blender, #inkscape, #kaltura, #kdenlive, #kubuntu, #moodle, #mypaint, #opensoureecology, #mahara, #opensourcemusicians, #vinux, #wordpress18:15

designbybeckOpen Source Ecology18:17
yvjohh18:17
yvjya18:17
designbybeckhttp://opensourceecology.org18:17
designbybeckthey might be getting into Biology now that I think about it18:17
yvjhmm18:17
designbybeckthey'll be doing things like planting and growing crops18:18
yvjya..18:18
yvjso what kinda softwares do u work with18:18
designbybecki do design work mostly18:18
designbybeckso Blender, Inkscape, GIMP, MyPaint18:18
yvjya.. that explains the gimp and inkscape18:19
yvjtell me.. how close do these softwares get to final cut pro anf photoshop and all those tools made by mac18:20
yvj*and18:20
designbybeckwell all the ones i just listed run on all platforms18:20
designbybecki taught photoshop for years, so i already knew the skill set, just had to learn a little different way of doing things18:20
yvjya.. but speaking in terms of performance.. are they at par with eachother18:21
designbybeckI love Blender and Inkscape, they have great communities behind them and are moving along nicely!18:21
yvjhmm18:21
designbybeckbe back in about 15mins yvj18:23

bogdan_c?18:24
DarthFrogbogdan_c: Have you done a system update?18:25
bogdan_cyes18:25
DarthFrogTry it again.18:25
bogdan_cthe problem was mine ... i wanted to test gimp devel so was necessary to update the pixbuf ...18:26
DarthFrogAh, then you'll likely get more help from the GIMP folks as they've likely encountered the problem themselves.18:27
=== boofman is now known as GhOsTFaCe
bogdan_cthank you ! i guess i'll have to wait a bit ... strange that gimp works but firefox, inkscape and mypaint is broken now18:29
bogdan_cmy bad ...18:29
DarthFrogPersonally, I'd suggest backing out of the changes and running the gimp devel in a virtual machine.18:30
yvjsee you around designbybeck... thanks for the startup tips18:30
DarthFrogActually, I'd suggest running all alphas and betas in virtual machines.18:30
bogdan_ci agree ... sadly i have a slow machine as native, a virtual will just not work i guess ... will be a good lesson for the future :)18:31
azmodeushi all...18:54
BluesKajBBL, ..errands18:54
azmodeusI've got a problem with my hp 6735s and the wifi... kubuntu doesn't recognize it... why could it be?18:55
azmodeus'till this morning it was ok now i've reinstalled the system and this is the result....18:56
lethuazmodeus, have you tried launching the Additional Drivers in the System menu?18:56
azmodeushmmm... not yet...18:56
lethuazmodeus, your wifi driver might be there18:57
azmodeusok... so I must search the additional drivers in the system menu18:57
lethuazmodeus, also have you updated your kernel before wifi stopped working?18:57
azmodeusno... well, Ill try to explain better what happened...18:58
azmodeusuhmmm... I've installed kubuntu succesfully saturday... and this morning I've got a problem with \dos recognizing at the start of the system (dont know what it means) and reinstalled the system in the same partition... till this morning wifi was working...18:59
lethu \dos?19:00
azmodeusnow the led of "power" that indicates that wifi is on is turned off... and with linux I cant use that, because I can just turn off with that switch... (even the same problem with this board...)19:00
lethuazmodeus, do an $ lspci19:01
azmodeusyep, I think it is something of the win installation ... I've formatted a partition that I mean to use as data... but It seems there was something after the kubuntu installation...19:01
lethuand look for your wifi hardware in the list19:01
lethuyou might have to do $ lspci | less19:01
lethuif the list is too long19:01
lethuazmodeus, have you installed kubuntu without formating the hd?19:02

emI installed the Catalyst 12.1 diver from the AMD webpage and then things got slow when i would move a window it would not move smoothly. Any ideas why that would happen or how to fix that?20:36
em12.1 is the latest driver for amd cards like mine.20:36
designbybeckem do you have desktop effects turned on?20:38
designbybeckwere things running smooth before then?20:38
DarthFrogem:  What card?20:42
emdesignbybeck: probably. How can I tell? Should I have them turned off?20:46
emDarthFrog: the card is HD 687020:46
emRadeon HD 687020:46
emdesignbybeck: yes things run pretty smoothly with the default open source driver I guess. But I want to install the proprietary one for other reasons.20:46
designbybeckem System Settings>Desktop Effects20:47
designbybecksee if they are turned on em20:47
DarthFrogem:  Did you try the distro's fglrx driver?20:47
emdesignbybeck: okay Im checking.20:50
emDarthFrog: Im woried to try fglrx because my purpose is to ultimately do bitcoin mining with this.20:51
DarthFrogThe fglrx driver is from AMD.  It might not be the latest & greatest (which isn't working for you) but is tweaked to run in Kubuntu.20:52
emdesignbybeck: yes desktop effects are enabled.20:52
emDarthFrog: yeah that doesn't sound so bad. I think I will give it a try if need be. I just hope it might not overwrite other stuff.20:52
emDarthFrog: does the flgrx give you some version of the catalyst driver?20:53
DarthFrogyes20:54
DasKreechem: I suppose if you wanted to be more specific catalyst gives you some version of fglrx20:54
