EagleScreenhello JontheEchidna, are you there?13:39
BluesKajHey all14:24
EagleScreenhi14:24
EzimBluesKaj, hi my friend.14:26
BluesKajhey Ezim , EagleScreen 14:27
EagleScreenMuon says that transmission-qt is supported until October, 2013, is it a mistake? shouldn't it be until April, 2017? this is for 12.0414:29
shadeslayerEagleScreen: is it in universe?14:30
EzimBluesKaj, is your system working now?14:30
BluesKajEzim, wll yes , but I'm on 4.8.2 ... had to reinstall the OS to /14:31
EagleScreenshadeslayer: not it is in main14:31
shadeslayeroh ...14:31
EzimBluesKaj, weird pointrelease messed up so much for you14:31
Ezimit can be som nvidia driver related problem more then kde specific. they have released new nvidia driver.14:32
BluesKajquite sure it was the graphics driver, but it doesn't make sense to you guys , however the fact remains that neither nvidia-current nor nouveau would work14:33
shadeslayerwhut14:33
shadeslayerBluesKaj: what happened?14:33
BluesKajshadeslayer, after upgrading to 4.8.3 , no X14:35
shadeslayer0.o14:35
BluesKajwhen rebooting14:35
BluesKajnot testing it again , I'll wait til it's ready14:36
shadeslayerBluesKaj: what did the logs say?14:37
BluesKajshadeslayer, nothing 14:42
shadeslayerheh14:42
BluesKajgents , I'd like to use an extra internal hdd for testing , since my other pc mobo is kaput , any advice about how to install grub in that situation?15:24
BluesKajEzim, shadeslayer, EagleScreen ? ^15:25
EzimBluesKaj, http://www.dedoimedo.com/computers/grub-2.html15:26
Ezimmaybe something of good15:26
Ezimwill take look if I find something easier15:26
BluesKajyes Ezim, he talks about partitions on the smae drive , mostly , barely mentions 2 HDDs15:29
BluesKajeer same drive15:31
Ezimhttps://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2  should help15:32
Ezimlook for grup-install and direct.15:33
Ezimsudo grub-install --boot-directory=/mnt/boot /dev/sdX15:34
EagleScreenBluesKaj: if you are going to install Linux distributions in that disk, they should detect the other OS and add them to its own grub, also you may to install them without grub installation and later add the entries manually to your old grub15:36

shadeslayerBluesKaj: iirc you install grub on the external HDD as well15:45
BluesKajEagleScreen, yes I thought one grub install would be best , then access to both HDs and OSs is simpler, editiing grub.cfg shouldn't be too difficult with a little help15:45
shadeslayerand then you can set the USB disk as the first boot device15:45
shadeslayeroh wait15:46
shadeslayerit's a extra *internal* HDD15:46
shadeslayerI read that as external :/15:46
shadeslayerBluesKaj: what EagleScreen said15:46
BluesKajnot a USB , it's going to mounted inside the pc , shadeslayer15:46
BluesKajalready have one external sata drive for media15:46
shadeslayershould work without the need for installing GRUB on the other HDD15:46
BluesKajshadeslayer,right , so when the installer asks to install grub i just skip it 15:48
shadeslayeryup ( There's a checkbox for installing GRUB iirc )15:48
shadeslayeryou'll need to boot into the older install and run sudo update-grub15:49
BluesKajshadeslayer, ok , probly gonna try the install later today, thanks15:56
ScottKnixternal or JontheEchidna: Do either of you have any interest in kde-style-skulpture in Debian?  It's just sitting there in experimental and it seems to me it either ought to get uploaded to Unstable or removed.16:30
mgottschlaghey, I am trying to build kde from source, and it wants libiobcd2 to be installed to build the soprano virtuoso backend (which is required by other parts of kde to compile without errors)16:44
mgottschlagnow libiobcd2 cannot be installed and seems to conflict with the system kde installation16:44
mgottschlagI am using kde 4.8.3 from the PPA16:44
mgottschlagcan anybody reproduce that, and if, what causes it and how can it be resolved?16:45
mgottschlag*libiodbc16:45
mgottschlag(what I am trying to fix: http://paste.kde.org/469880 - what happens when I install libiodbc2: http://paste.kde.org/469862/)16:46
mgottschlag(and I definately at least  spelled libiodbc2 right when I tried to install it -.-)16:47
shadeslayermgottschlag: haha17:28
shadeslayerone sec17:29
shadeslayeryou need unixodbc-dev and this patch http://paste.kde.org/469388/17:29
shadeslayermgottschlag: ^17:29
mgottschlagthx, I'll try that17:30

ScottKThere aren't any backport for 12.04 yet.17:54
ScottK4.8.3 should be in the updates PPA.17:54
Ezimhttps://launchpad.net/~kubuntu-ppa/+archive/backports and http://www.kubuntu.org/news/kde-sc-4.8.317:54
EzimScottK, mean if I wanted 4.8.3 for my 11.10. will ppa:kubuntu-ppa/backports not get it?17:55
ScottKWe don't package that.17:56
ScottKWe'll do 4.8.3 for 12.04 and quantal.17:56
EzimScottK, weird becuase 4.8.2 was there.17:56
ScottKThat was before 12.04 was released.17:57
Ezim:( so I will not get 4.8.3. going to cry. 17:57
Ezim:P17:57
ScottKThe way to get it is upgrade to 12.04.17:57
ScottKThere's only so many of us and we can only package for so many releases.17:58
EzimScottK, I understand. np. I will upgrade during my summer break.17:59
