[05:34] yes that [05:34] sorry [05:34] :-) just trying to be clear [05:34] i'm so tired i'm not sure which of us is a boy [05:35] when you said you moved it you renamed his old home directory (I'm going to guess it was /home/chull/ as well) to be named /home/old ? [05:35] Daskreech, yes [05:35] you're good! [05:36] we *finally* got firefox copied back [05:36] and then you copied over the Documents, Downloads Pictures and so on?

Why was a new home folder made? [05:39] he broke something in /var/ i think - it wouldn't let him get past login and pass [05:39] gave an error [05:39] chalcedony, and it will let him login now? [05:39] i could ssh in [05:39] yes :) [05:40] ha ha well lets make a small test if you would be so obliging [05:40] when i went to sleep he was trying to get Adobe9 to read pdfs, it was in some weird place.

[07:16] * chalcedony doesn't know [07:16] hello everyone, i have two lcds connected to my Graphics cards one as primary and another as secondary. The secondary is configured on the right of the primary lcd. Every app / window that i open goes to the secondary which is not always in use and so i need to drag the windows from the sec to the primary lcd. Is there a solution to this? That is, all windows / apps that are initiated to show up in the primary lcd instead of the secondary? [07:17] on graphic card (not two) [07:18] chalcedony, alt+F2 -> kontact [07:18] naftilos76, i can understand your frustration (but don't know the answer) [07:18] ok [07:19] Daskreech, a summary page? [07:20] chalcedony, does it have calendar at the side? [07:20] Daskreech, among other things, yes [07:20] click on it? [07:21] hi [07:21] hello kronos1987 [07:21] hi [07:21] nqkoi znae li b1lgarski tuka [07:21] chalcedony: thanks for the support :-) [07:22] is there even an ubuntu channel for bulgarian? [07:22] naftilos76, don't mention it.. i'm guessing that somewhere in there, it didn't see you specify that monitor as 'secondary'' [07:22] there is one for russian [07:23] i think kronos1987 needs a bulgarian channel, if one exists... maybe russian would work [07:23] kronos1987, which language ? === fred_ is now known as Guest72555 [07:25] bulgaria [07:26] good catch JMichaelX [07:26] 11211 [07:27] !bg [07:27] опитайте #ubuntu-bg за български потребители . try #ubuntu-bg for bulgarian users, and please idle there patiently [07:27] Daskreech, i clicked a while ago, forgot to tell you :) [07:28] aha, there actually is a channel for bulgarian [07:28] It's.... not doing anything ? [07:28] i have the calendar open but it has no appointments showing [07:28] it should at a minimum show classes i run on undernet on weekends [07:29] ok [07:29] chalcedony, well if you would like to rest now you can ask in #akonadi in the morning [07:30] Daskreech, i can't imagine when i will get such capable and kind help as yours [07:31] also im not looking forward to not knowing if we had appointments [07:31] :-) I think your issue is that dbus is throwing errors and the data is being put across dbus [07:32] ah [07:32] that might have been a part of the initial problem Daskreech? [07:33] quite possible [07:33] thank you very much :) [07:33] i really do appreciate the time you spent helping me [07:33] sure [07:34] If I'm around and you are in #akonadi poje me and I'll try and help resolve it [07:35] Daskreech, thank you very much, ill look for you :) [07:36] :) [07:37] hi, i have linksys router and trying to read files of computer 2 from computer 1, when i click on network, it says windows network, is that what i should not see? [10:11] hello. how do I allow gtk-gnutella to open the ports it needs? i'm on kubuntu 11.10 and new to linux [10:17] it says i'm firewalled but i've no idea how to change port settings [10:18] also I connect with wvdial [10:30] oh, i'm not behind a router either [10:38] i fixed it! i did sudo ufw allow [10:38] ha [11:10] aptitude is crashing when trying to do package depends, apt-get just isnt trying to do it at all. what should be used to take care of package depends [11:13] Whiskey`Wonka: What's the exact error and when do you get that? [11:13] orated: the error is to complex to type, i will screen it. and any time i do anything in aptitude [11:14] Did you try ? [11:14] bah! it uninstall ksnap [11:14] no i will not force the packages [11:14] that will jsut make it worse [11:15] Can you pastebinit? [11:15] sudo apt-get install pastebinit. Then command | pastebinit [11:15] ah [11:15] Do you have pastebinti installed? [11:16] pastebinit* And -f, --fix-broken [11:18] http://imgur.com/opbzP [11:19] I can not hardly install anythign right now, depends hell [11:19] the issue isnt (so much) broken /packages/ as it is /broken package managers/ [11:25] Whiskey`Wonka: What all packages are exactly conflicting or have unmet dependencies is not clear with that image. I can only see 3 broken packages. Is this Precise release? [11:25] orated: yes it is, and as i said, the /main issue/ is that aptitude/apt-get are broken somehow [11:26] they keep removing 100's of packages and reinstalling the same ones [11:26] after the error shown in the snap if I press G, it says 245 removes, 245 installs [11:27] but then it goes on to say packages abcdfg are not installed and will be kept at their current level' and chokes out [11:27] and all i want to do is get ia32-libs installed [11:28] Its case of held back packages [11:29] it did not list any held back packages that time [11:31] http://imgur.com/usETG [11:31] aptitude spewed again [11:34] Can you close the package manager you are using and its other three instances, and run sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade > log ? So that uploading log to ubuntu pastebin can help to understand unmet dependencies.. I can suggest to say No to whatever it want to do and wait for the update the come but the unmet dependencies can help. [11:34] Ah, so from Internal error: the solver Install(gvfs-daemons ... to lsb-core [11:35] i do not have 3 other instances, i have /one/ [11:36] ? breadstick:aptitude 3 tabs [11:36] and the internal error changes depending on the package(s) trying to be isntalled (ia32-libs in that case and it goes off in wild chains) [11:36] er, sorry. [11:37] still only have aptitude running once, then a windows for apt-get but it wasnt active and the rest are for wine apps i need but wine is nolonger installed [11:38] I'm really not sure what to suggest without understanding the reason causing those issues [11:38] yea same here [11:38] Can you 'sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade > log ' and upload log to pastebin? [11:39] i can try [11:41] just sitting at 'reading package lists .... done' [11:43] Ok, what's the package name you were trying to install? ia32-libs? [11:44] ah the log has a input needed [11:45] http://pastebin.com/BSmAJu0S [11:48] http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=651748 [11:48] Debian bug 651748 in aptitude "aptitude: resolver screams bloody murder in multiarch setup" [Normal,Open] [11:48] ok so thats two of the bugs right there [11:56] Whiskey`Wonka, Have you asked in #ubuntu+1 ? [11:57] nope [11:58] muon is giving resonable errors again!! [11:59] 6mo ago it would just segfault [11:59] ok ia32-lib depends on ia32 multiverse but is a virtual package [11:59] multiverse depends on things that cannot be isntalled, dunno why yet === cassio is now known as Guest36205 [12:00] do you have multiverse enabled? [12:01] i never disabled it so it should be [12:01] its in my sources.list [12:01] so did something /change/ in how thats done [12:09] I don't know. #ubuntu+1 might though [12:10] Whiskey`Wonka: don'0t use muon then [12:11] Whiskey`Wonka: you can install from terminal that is fastest [12:11] Whiskey`Wonka: http://nowardev.wordpress.com/2012/02/05/alias-apt-with-auto-complete-kde-4-kubuntu/ù [12:11] Whiskey`Wonka: http://nowardev.wordpress.com/2012/02/05/alias-apt-with-auto-complete-kde-4-kubuntu/ [12:12] Peace-: i think you missed the fact that aptitude/apt-get are screwed here [12:12] Whiskey`Wonka: what does it say ? sudo apt-get update [12:12] http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=651748 [12:12] Debian bug 651748 in aptitude "aptitude: resolver screams bloody murder in multiarch setup" [Normal,Open] [12:13] there is a 2nd bug talked of in that one, where in you to /manualy/ do the package depends [12:13] both are affecting me [12:13] Whiskey`Wonka: apt-get works ? [12:13] as long as it /does not/ have to work out a depend package yes [12:14] once it has to work on a depend package, forget it [12:14] your are talking about apt-get or aptitude? [12:14] both [12:14] aptitude blows up [12:14] apt-get just says 'fsck you' and stops [12:14] it /tells me/ what depends are needed [12:15] 12.04? [12:15] but running down the list its 100's of packages [12:15] yes 12.04 [12:15] #kubuntu-devel [12:15] ask there [12:15] why this has been a issue since 10.04 [12:15] 100% same issue [12:19] hiyas all [12:23] BluesKaj: Hi [12:24] hi bigbrovar [12:32]
