[02:10] seb_: Re-install. [02:11] Oh, just flash. Hmm. In the immortal words of Emily Litella, "Never mind". [02:11] Went i re-install 10 , Ubuntu [02:11] Went i re-install 10 , Ubuntu install center brings me back to 11 [02:12] Ubuntu software center sorry [02:57] Can you help with a Kubuntu wireless problem? [02:57] Can anyone help me with a Kubuntu wireless problem? [03:17] Kubuntu_AL: Ask and wait ... if someone knows the answer, they will answer ... [03:21] My wired connection works. Wireless doesn't work. Wireless goes IN and OUT. Get msg, 'WLAN interface Setting network address'. Address is never set. Can anyone help? [03:21] Kubuntu_AL: laptop? [03:22] Running Kubuntu 12.04 LTS on Acer laptop. (Wireless works fine in Windows 7 on same laptop). [03:22] Have dual boot Win7 and Kubuntu 12.04 [03:22] Kubuntu_AL: Get the make and model of the wireless card and check if it's compatible w/linux [03:23] some aren't [03:24] I got wireless to work fine with Kubuntu 11.10 on this same laptop [03:24] Kubuntu_AL: clean install or upgrade? [03:25] K11.10 was clean install in part 5 alongside Win7 in partv 3 [03:25] Kubuntu_AL: so,you upgraded to 12.04? [03:25] It seems a lot of people are having trouble with wireless on K12.04 [03:27] I haven't upgraded yet ... I'm waiting for the point release due out this month ... [03:27] In K11 I downloaded all available updates in Muon, but OS froze twice at 37% when installing the updates. So I killed 11.10 and did a clean install of K12 64-bit [03:29] Kubuntu_AL: did you have a shitload of updates on 11.10? If so, I find that doing a few at a time is the way to go ... saveing the kernel upgrades for last ... [03:29] I created discs for K12 32 & 64-bit and Ubuntu 12 32 & 64v bit. I was going to try all of the V12 discs until I could get the updates loaded OK. [03:30] I save the kernel upgrades for last since they need a reboot ... I don't reboot often ... :) [03:31] MR-RICH - Can I open a channel to you to discuss further? [03:32] Kubuntu_AL: is that necessary? if we talk here, someone else may see the conversation and be able to offer better advice ... [03:33] That's fine. Let's talk here. [03:35] I've upgraded since 11.04 on this box and had problems ... This time I'm waiting for the point release before I upgrade to 12.04 ... [03:35] opps ... since 10.10 ... [03:36] I have a PC I built that is dual boot Win7/Kubuntu. Was K11.10, then updates came down for V12.04. I loaded all and everything is fine. My connecxtion is wired of the desktop. [03:37] same here ... I have an old laptop that I run Ubuntu on and the wireless upgrade did fine there ... [03:38] depends on the wireless card ... [03:39] I'm trying to load Kubuntu on my laptop since I can't get Skype tp work on my desktop. Desktop is 64-bit also. Normal sound works , but audio fails in Skype, therfore I thought that I would try loading Linux and Skype on my laptop. [03:40] Did skype work before the upgrade to 12.04? [03:40] NO [03:41] I do well in Windows environment. I'm a programmer (not a hot shot, but I make a living at it). I'm a babe as far as Linux goes. [03:41] prolly a problem with the cam you have ... I do research before I buy any hardware to make sure my system will support it ... [03:42] I've been running GNU/Linux systems since 1995 ... [03:42] I haven't dual booted in 10 years ... [03:43] On my desktop the camera was okay. I can't recall if audio incoming or outgoing failed. Don't think it wwas both. [03:43] I run M$ Win7 as a VM under Kubuntu ... [03:43] Nice [03:44] I had a problem with my cam mic on 11.04 ... always sounded like Alvin on the outgoing ... :) [03:44] One of the later updates fixed it ... [03:45] I also run Mac OSX on a VM ... [03:45] I read that audio drivers for Skype were no good for 64-bit hardware. Fixing the problem is described as hit or miss. [03:46] What is you base OS on your desktop [03:46] Kubuntu all the way ... [03:47] I have 2 computers that have NEVER seen an M$ OS run natively ... [03:48] I ran Ubuntu and was happy until the Unity desktop. This forced me to move to other Linux's until I settled on K. [03:48] I'm happy with K on the desktop, but I want Skype to work. [03:49] Unity will eventually come around ... but it's limited for now [03:49] It's why I stick w/Kubuntu ... [03:50] Unity is based on search for what you want. How do you search for progs if you don't know what is on your system. That's what menus are for. [03:50] Rand Fadora for a looooong time ... too cutting edge sometimes and updates between versions was dicy [03:52] I've read that K may run into problems with the latest Gnome (2.5?? or 3.x) and that K devs may go to another desktop technology. [03:52] I'd say if you're ready to commit, ditch the dual boot and go Kubuntu ... [03:52] KDE & Gnome are 2 differen desktops ... [03:53] Opps true [03:54] I remeber KDE and Gnome from the pre 1.0 days in the 90's ... === _matt is now known as Guest52814 [03:54] The articles though seemed to suggest that Kubuntu devs may have to change their desktop technoloy for some reason or another. [03:54] Generally, I very happy with KDE. [03:55] started out as just KDE using the QT tool kit ... back then, the QT license was not OSI comatible, so Gnome was forked from KDE and started using the GTK tool kit instead ... [03:55] My problem is that Linux seems to crash more than Win-XP SP3 and Win7. [03:56] I have not had a crash on my Kubuntu systgem ever ... [03:57] Plasma desktop went topsy-tervey a time or two, but that's it ... restart X and done [03:58] I kinda recall reading about desktop interfaces for Unix/Linux over the years. I get confused about all the talk of Gnome, KDE, X-Windows, QT, ... How to make since of it all ? [03:59] I once had an uptime of 160+ days ... === infojanitor_ is now known as yupitsme [03:59] I run one too many progs or have too many windows in Chrome or Firefox and everything may freeze. [04:00] 160 days.. I'm doing good for 16 hours [04:00] I have at least 2 dozen window open right now including 6 VMs ... [04:01] but I also have 16GB of mem ... :) [04:01] What do you do for programming? [04:02] I assume that you need 3 or 4 screens to keep track of all of those windows? [04:03] Work for a battery company. Create programs and web site to report battery test results. Do a good bit of Excel apps also. [04:04] Yourself? [04:04] I have 4 desktops and and a HUGE monitor ... :) [04:05] web? php? asp? ? [04:05] ou program for work or pleasure? [04:05] I do bit of web programing on the side ... not that good at it, but I try ... [04:06] We're a MS shop. VB.Net, c# and a little javascript [04:06] I'm an old geek ... worked on mainframes for years ... now I sell furniture and get a few programming/admin gigs on the side when I can ... [04:07] we've used VB5, 6 and VB.Net versions up thru VS.Net 2010 [04:08] Did some VB in my day ... recently I wrote myself a little VBA utility at work to print clearance tags from M$ Word ... [04:08] We'll probably load the VS.Net 2012 beta soon. [04:09] Made myself an Excel spread sheet to track my monthly sales and keep track of my commisions ... [04:09] they use Sharepoint ... [04:10] I don't think they expected any of the sales staff to use Sharepoint to the degree that I have ... :) [04:12] Well, I don't know what to tell you about your wireless card unless you can backport the drivers from 11.10 to 12.04 ... I think I'm off to bed ... I'll play with my Macbook a bit then nood off ... [04:15] mr-rich: you run kubuntu on a macbook - been trying allday :/ [04:19] ??

[13:10] sky100: but I would suggest okular. [13:10] sky100: okular is probably the best PDF viewer now. [13:11] fasta : ok , ty [13:12] Perhaps there are some patented algorithms in adobe which makes certain things look better, but I really don't notice the difference. [13:12] sky100, okular is installed by default [13:13] BluesKaj: is there some easy interface to setup NFS? [13:13] BluesKaj: otherwise I will just do it manually. [13:13] acroread used to be an adobe reader , but I haven't seen it in a while [13:13] BluesKaj, ok [13:14] fasta, I have a simple guide saved ..hang on [13:15] fasta, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNFSHowTo [13:17] thunderbird is refusing to move more then one email at a time :/ [13:17] hmm, might be because I am on +1 [13:20] Hi [13:20] IdleOne, I'm on 12.10 , sending or receiving ?

[13:22] for example language support iceweasel and so on? [13:22] BluesKaj: I'm trying to do some cleaning of my inboxes [13:23] Hello ! [13:23] I'd like to programm a Kwin script, and I saw here : [13:23] http://techbase.kde.org/Development/Tutorials/KWin/Scripting [13:24] that if we hit wm console, we have the Desktop Console which will appear. [13:24] Hovewer, I've nothing. [13:24] How could I open this console ? [13:24] IdleOne, sorry I can't replicate your issue ..I just moved some to another folder from the inbox without a problem [13:25] BluesKaj: I can move one at a time, multiple emails at once it is chocking [13:26] not a big issue as I don't have that many to move but it can be time consuming for someone with hundreds of emails I suppose. === bulldog98_ is now known as bulldog98 [13:30] BluesKaj: also it does not seem to be running my filter rules [13:30] IdleOne, just moved 10 emails into another folder in t-bird without a problem [13:31] hi, init=/bin/bash as boot parameter does not work for me [13:32] tobiasBora, I tried that tutorial as well, none of the commands work for me either ...it' must be old or they've forgotten to list an app or other command that's required [13:33] BluesKaj: Thanks. And what is the news way to programm with Kwin ? [13:34] tobiasBora, I don't know offhand, sorry :( [13:34] BluesKaj: ok, thanks. [13:54] tobiasBora, after running the quickstart commands in the krunner, open your browser , there should be a script loaded at the top in FF [13:58] BluesKaj: i don't see anything... But I've kwin 4.8, so maybe it is why it doesn't works ! [14:02] tobiasBora, 4.8 is default in 12.04 ... I found another tutorial saying "wm console" in krunner should open a kwin console but that doesn't work for me either [14:23] BluesKaj: somebody told me that a project with the 4.9 version exists : projectNeon for kubuntu [14:23] and a beta version will release on Monday [14:24] But I found a function, and I'd like to build it with the keypad keys, but it doesn't work with the keypad. Do you know why ? [14:29] tobiasBora, no I don't ... my sripting knowledge is limited as it is , so trying to run scripts in Kwin is beyond my scope. [14:30] Oh, BluesKaj, it's not a script, only a global shortcut.

[19:41] douglarret: These are just my thoughts... They don't have to be true ;) [19:41] lordievader, agreed :) [19:45] hm - is anyone aware of a kubuntu channel covering kubuntu in the sense of a distribution (package lists) rather than KDE? [20:26] how can I get a console login on a fresh install of 12.04 with no x? [20:26] doesn't it just boot up to a login prompt if you don't have X installed? [20:27] x crashes my box [20:28] ah, you want it to boot without trying to run X? [20:28] have you tried picking recovery mode from the grub menu? [20:29] gonna try that now - sec [20:29] If X crashes, starting without it won't solve anything [20:29] What's your GPU and drivers? [20:30] was gonna try to install nvidia drivers for my nvidia card [20:32] Best use the latest (295.53) from X-Updates/X-SWAT [20:33] thanks [20:33] What card, by the way? [20:34] gt220 [20:44] Hello? I'm using Kubuntu, and I'm having issues with KWin. I asked in the kwin channel, someone thought my issue was a lack of nvidia glx. It seems these packages were removed from the ubuntu repos awhile ago. Are they any solutions to kwin/nvidia opengl compositing issues at this time? I kinda like the effects kwin has to offer, but its nigh unusable as is. [20:47] What card and drivers? [20:49] Nvidia Geforce 9600 M GS...sorry I may have fixed my problem: does anyone else have the show-paint plugin? If they could verify that the desktop looks like its having a siezure when being used... [20:50] I always assumed I had some horrible driver problem, lol [20:50] What do you need the paint for? [20:50] I don't! [20:50] I had no idea it was on. [20:50] Sweet. :D [20:51] Fixed my problem, sorry to waste your time! [20:51] hello [21:03] Now I have a problem. I was plying with a QtCurve theme andafter getting back to Oxygen some element, like Krunner, the shutdown//logout window, or the frames showing the position and size of a window after dragging it to a screen's border/corner, are still themed with it. [21:04] I've already removed all the possible stuff related to this theme i had on HDD, especially in the KDE's configuration folders, but still no luck [21:05] I know i could just delete the whole of KDE's config and re-configure it, but It would take a lot of time and so I don't feel like tring. [21:16] my wobbly windows dont work :( [21:28] how do I run a command everytime I login? [21:29] douglarret: system settings > startup and shutdown > autostart [21:32] Where does the KDE time widget gets its idea of time? [21:38] Never mind.
