BarkingFishat the bottom of the left pane, is a checkbox "Show advanced devices" - is it checked?00:00
BarkingFishif not, please check it and you will get a lot more options00:00
richard_It is now. . . .00:00
BarkingFishand do you get more options?00:01
richard_Got a few more options that were greyed out. . . . checked them all again and still no sound. . . .00:02
BarkingFishrighty ho.00:02
BarkingFishNow we have to dig into your system then.00:02
BarkingFishAnd i mean "really" dig down00:02
BarkingFishdo you still have your terminal open?00:02
lorddeltaBarkingFish: Hmm, well then I don't really understand what pulseaudio's for, other than weird network stuff! oh well it just works.00:02
richard_yes00:03
richard_The topmost option HDA ATI SD (ALC1200 Analog) is what use to work all the time if I remember correctly. . ..00:03
BarkingFishpulseaudio took over from arts and artsd as an audio scheduler, lorddelta - simply scheduling audio from other places so it didn't lag or hang00:03
BarkingFishaha00:04
BarkingFishALC1200 analog... one moment.00:04
BarkingFishMine is an ALC88000:04
BarkingFishlemme just go look at something, won't be a tick00:04
richard_HDA ATI SB (ALC1200 Analog) correction not SD but SB I guess for sound board. ...00:06
BarkingFishi thought so... :P00:07
BarkingFishCould you please, in your terminal, type: lsmod and tell me if you happen to have a module called snd_hda_intel_realtek loaded please?00:07
richard_Ok hold on. . ..00:07
BarkingFishsorry - snd_hda_codec_realtek00:08
richard_It's there. . .. .with a  1 at the end of the line00:09
BarkingFishok, so you have part of the right stuff in your system, there's certainly a module there for the HD audio codec00:09
BarkingFishcould you next please - type locate ac9700:09
BarkingFishdon't post the results, simply tell me if you get any at all :)00:10
richard_There's a ton of Ac97 files in /usr/00:10
BarkingFishexcellent, again, you have the right bits there too.00:11
BarkingFishHow do you listen to your sound? External speakers, or built in ones?00:11
richard_I've got to run  . . ..dinner is on. . ..wife is s screaming. . . . external spkrs. . .. will be back late. .. .thnx. . .. .00:11

frogonwheelsyjacket: maybe look at the device notifier settings03:14
AndroidLoverInSFmy kde bottom taskbar has all the active app icons scrunched up on the left. how can i make those icons bigger and expand to the right, and shrink the panel app icons to the right of them?03:14
frogonwheelsAndroidLoverInSF: click on the 'palette' icon on the right, and move things aroudn so that more space is available for the taskbar03:15
frogonwheelsAndroidLoverInSF: does the taskbar cover the whole width of the bottom? do you have many try icons?03:17
frogonwheelsAndroidLoverInSF: you know you can have multiple taskbars?03:17
AndroidLoverInSFi clicked on the palette, but it just lets me move icons around03:23
yjacketheh, i just installed kubuntu and it took me a bit to figure out the taskbar gui...03:24
yjacketfrogonwheels: Device Notifier Settings? Is that the menu that shows actions you can do with mounted media?03:25
AndroidLoverInSFoh so if i add a spacer, then add my app icons into that spacer. if i add more app icons, the icons will be smaller? and fit inside the spacer?03:31

sky100cant figure this out .. any help pls........12:31
lordievadersky100: Is the one burnt by k3b being read on a different pc?12:31
sky100did not try that out .. lordievader12:32
lordievadersky100: Perhaps it is a good idea to check that. Can you narrow it down where something goes wrong.12:33
sky100other pc where i like to test is running on windows xp12:33
sky100thats not my pc .. its someone's laptop12:33

sky100i burnt some cd-rw using kB last nite , and the notifier recognised it immediately after reinserting the disc & dolphin shower up also12:36
sky100showed *12:36
sky100but after burning DVD-R using kb its just failing to read it12:36
sky100k3B*12:37
lordievadersky100: Exactly that is why you need to work methodically, crossing out things that could be the problem. I.e. you currently have to major thing that could go wrong, either it hasn't burned correctly or it is not being read correctly. With a simple test (see if something else reads it) you can find out which one it is.12:37
sky100i had thought that this could be burner related issue .. but if that would be , then using cdburnerxp , i would not be able to burn DVD-R12:39

lordievadersalsero313: It might be your gfx driver failing, what gfx card do you have and what driver have you installed for it?13:17
salsero313i have nvidia geforce gt 320m13:18
sky100lordievader, . yeah , i read that already yesterday ---ty13:18
salsero313i have use the new driver13:18
lordievadersky100: So you have converted the avi to mpeg2 (VIDEO_TS + AUDIO_TS)?13:18
lordievadersalsero313: Have you installed it manually? (The driver)13:19
salsero313no i have installed over kubuntu13:19
lordievadersalsero313: Throught the additional driver installer (jockey)?13:20
salsero313not over muon.13:20
lordievadersalsero313: Through muon?13:21
salsero313i have use the hardware driver. the hardware driver recommend a driver13:21
salsero313muon is like kpackage13:21
lordievadersalsero313: Ok, ok. You could try to boot into the rescue mode, and see if kdm works through there.13:22
salsero313in /var/log/kdm.log there is: failed to load module "nv" (module doesnt exist, 013:23
salsero313what should i do now?13:24
mick_a13:24
lordievadersalsero313: Then it is probably failing to load the driver. You could try to reinstall the driver. I.e. remove the driver, reboot, install, reboot.13:25
mick_yes hello world - are we still slapping yet other with big fish13:25
salsero313how can i do it. should i boot with the kubuntu dvd?13:25
lordievadersalsero313: So in your case you run "sudo apt-get purge nvidia*"13:25
lordievadersalsero313: Nope you are at your shell right?13:26
salsero313i am in the shell13:26
lordievadersalsero313: Ok, so run "sudo apt-get purge nvidia*"13:27
salsero313paket nvidia kann nicht gefunden werden.13:27
salsero313he cant find nvidia13:27
salsero313now it works13:27
lordievadersalsero313: ?13:27
lordievadersalsero313: Now what works?13:28
salsero313he delete kde-workspace, kubuntu desktop, kde-window-manager, libkwinnvidiahack413:28
lordievadersalsero313: Ohh that's not good.13:28
lordievadersalsero313: Cancel that and make it "sudo apt-get remove nvidia*"13:28
salsero313it is to late. he is ready13:28
lordievadersalsero313: That ain't good, it's allways a good idea to first check what he is going to remove. Anyhow run: "sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop kde-workspace kde-window-manager"13:30
salsero313i will boot with kubuntu dvd i try it. one minute13:31
qwlordievader upgrade in 10.1013:31
lordievadersalsero313: Wait, why?13:32
lordievaderqw: Have you rebooted, the upgrade/update has finished right?13:32
salsero313i have now internet13:32
sky100lordievader,  no i did not convert anything13:33
salsero313i have do this http://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/GRUB_2/Reparatur#chroot-Methode13:33
lordievadersky100: You should else you cannot (in most cases) play it in an dvd-player.13:33
qwi am reboot13:34
sky100i wanted to burn them as i burnt .avi formats  in windows xp using cdburner xp .. really dont need to play ona DVD player13:34
lordievadersalsero313: What, why? That is for grub things, not for kdm.13:34
lordievadersky100: Ah ok, I thought you needed that, never mind then.13:35
sky100just wanted to burn movies ( .avi ) on a DVD-R & handed down to my friend .. thats it .13:35
sky100ok13:35
salsero313i have to do the first step get internet13:35
lordievadersalsero313: The grub insall? You know I'm starting to think that it's easier to just reinstall the system. Have you got /home on a separate partition?13:36
sky100so do u suggest that i should get that disc tested on other pc running on windows xp ?13:37
sky100lordievader,13:37
sky100or do would you like to recommend to uninstall k3b completely from kubuntu im on , reboot & reinstall it .. lordievader13:38
sky100i did the lens cleaning using LENS cleaning disc ...13:38
lordievadersky100: Look there are 2 things that could have gone wrong here, either A the burn failed, or B the reading of the disc fails. If a different machine cannot read the disc either you know it is option A.13:39
sky100ok13:39
sky100in fact i got surprised that 4 movies on a DVD-R of 3.6GB size only took 7 mins to be written on DVDS-R while , a single movie on a cd-rw of 700 Mb size almost 7 mins to write using k 3b..13:41
sky100DVD-R*13:41
salsero313yes i have have home on a separete partition13:42
sky100 a single movie of 700 Mb size took  almost 7 mins to be written using k3b*13:42
lordievadersalsero313: Then I'm seriously considering recommending reinstalling the system.13:43
sky100would you suggest for an uninstallation of k3b , lordievader13:43
lordievadersky100: There is quite a difference between CD's and DVD's, DVD's probably have alot higher throughput.13:44
sky100yea13:44
lordievadersky100: Not sure if that would fix your problem.13:44
sky100really this bugging lordievader13:44
qwlordievader i like 10.10 =)13:45
lordievadersky100: I can immagine that.13:45
sky100No solution .. seems to be near13:45
salsero313ok i can do it. but can i not try something before i do it13:46
lordievadersky100: You could experiment with the settings in k3b. Or make a dual-boot with xp or something.13:46
lordievadersalsero313: Have you removed the nvidia driver?13:46
sky100i have a dual boot lordievader13:47
sky100with xp13:47
lordievadersky100: You could just do your dvd burning in there.13:47
salsero313i did it but i remove other things too13:48
sky100yes .. i did it .. but it appears to be riddle to me lordievader  & also saddens me to hop for windows for a LINUX app being crippled13:49
lordievaderNothing is perfect, sky100.13:50
salsero313like delete kde-workspace, kubuntu desktop, kde-window-manager, libkwinnvidiahack413:50
sky100agree with lordievader  , but as it works for others .. it should have worked for me as well.. thats the logic13:51
lordievadersalsero313: No just all the nvidia packages, you need to keep kde-workspace, kubuntu-desktop, kde-window-manger (not sure about the libkwinn package)13:51
tonyyybye guys13:51
lordievaderCya tonyyy13:51
lordievadersky100: That is logical, yes. But reality is not always logical.13:52
sky100hmm lordievader13:52
sky100even i thought for a fresh install of kubuntu 12.04 .. but then just pulled myself back...13:53
sky100will remain as enigmatic ...13:54
sky100weird issue..13:55
qwwhether I should put an antivirus on Linux? and how to remove the login window to the system?13:56
lordievaderqw: There is no need for an antivirus package on Linux. You want the system to automatically log you in?13:57
qwfirst - thanks, second - yes13:58
lordievaderqw: Ok, go to System Settings -> Login Screen -> Convenience -> Tick Enable Auto-Login and under User you set your username and then click apply.13:59
qwmy system is Russian =)14:00
lordievaderqw: I can't speak Russian so you would need to translate it to Russian yourself.14:00
salsero313when i try to install kubuntu-desktop again kubuntu try to install nvidia-common too14:00
lordievadersalsero313: Hmm, oh well leave the nvidia-common installed then too.14:01
salsero313should i install kde-window-manager, kubuntu-desktop, libkwinnvidiahack4, nvidia-common?14:01
lordievadersalsero313: Yes14:01
salsero313should i install all 4 things?14:02

lordievadersky100: Ok, good luck.14:04
sky100ty14:04

salsero313i have do this http://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/GRUB_2/Reparatur#chroot-Methode and then i installed. how can i unmount it?14:06
sky100may be im asking something irrelevant14:07
sky100but...14:07
sky100do I have to install WINE ...to get k3b working perfectly...14:07
sky100dunno14:07
lordievadersalsero313: Check in muon if you have any nvidia packages other than nvidia-common.14:10
qwi would like install skype from linux help me please14:11
lordievadersky100: Unless there is a windows version of k3b those two are quite unrelated.14:11
lordievadersalsero313: I'm not sure what you mean with that grub repair guide.14:11
lordievaderqw: Go to their website download the .deb file and install it.14:11
qwmaybe in konsole in command14:12
qw?14:12
lordievaderqw: For as far as I know it is not in the repos.14:12
sky100OK , lordievader14:13
salsero313in mouon is nvidia-173-dev, nvidia-96-dev,14:13
lordievadersalsero313: You should remove those two (just those two, if you need to remove any other packages cancel it).14:14
qwin the offi. website i not see my system14:15
lordievaderqw: What?14:15
qwmaybe ubuntu 10.1014:15
qwhttp://www.skype.com/intl/ru/get-skype/on-your-computer/linux/14:15
qwwebsite have Ubuntu 10.04 +32 +6414:17
lordievaderqw: You need the ubuntu package, depending on your system 32 bit or 64 bit.14:17
qw3214:18
lordievadersalsero313: After removing them reboot your system, and hopefully you get kdm back.14:18
sky100bbl , gotta go .. cya lordievader  , ty14:19
salsero313it is only nvidia-common installed. is it ok?14:21
lordievadersalsero313: I think so, yes.14:22
salsero313kdm doesnt start :(14:27
salsero313kdm status is kdm start/running process 124114:28
BluesKajHiyas folks14:29
mah454ubuntu or kubuntu 12.04 use upstart ?14:49
lordievadermah454: Yes (k)ubuntu uses upstart, though for most things you can still just use /etc/init.d/14:50

GeeksOnHugstest (sorry)16:17
sky100could not test the DVD-R , lordievader , his pc was not available16:18
sky100lordievader,  pls see this >>http://www.pclinuxos.com/forum/index.php?topic=75891.016:26

sky100brb16:29
GeeksOnHugsI have an app full screen, with a modal dialog apparently hidden behind it, so it's not responsive...how do I cause the modal dialog box to present itself?16:43
GeeksOnHugsit should open up with modal dialog on top but for some reason it's not on top so I can't do anything with it16:44
GeeksOnHugsit's a very delicate application and I was doing set up so I don't want to exit it abnormally so nothing gets screwed up :( plz help16:44
NoiseChancellorGeeksOnHugs: Try pressing Ctrl+F9, that might allow you to find the window16:45
GeeksOnHugskk ty i'll try that16:45
GeeksOnHugscrap...I have a weird keyboard...the F keys are on the number keys and I can't figure out how to press my F keys doh lol16:45
GeeksOnHugsI know I have to hold something down with the key but I cna't figure out what it is16:46
GeeksOnHugswait, I can maybe use the onboard keyboard16:46
GeeksOnHugson screen keyboard...16:46
=== juergen_ is now known as juergen81
GeeksOnHugson screen keyboard doesn't have F keys :'(16:47
lordievaderGeeksOnHugs: Is it a laptop?16:48
GeeksOnHugsno it's a retro commodore 64 itx case...I figured out how to get F keys with the on screen keyboard...one sec lemme try ctrl f9...16:49
GeeksOnHugsnope didn't work :(16:50
GeeksOnHugsgot it :)  I hit escape several times16:50
GeeksOnHugsthanks for the suggestions :)16:50
GeeksOnHugsI'm very noob with linux, but learning16:50
GeeksOnHugsI got everything pretty cool, my only issue is video isn't super smooth, and full screen it's terrible...I have the I guess default NVIDIA drivers loaded, should I load the ones from nvidia.com?  I tried that actually but it has to be run without X server and I can't figure out how to shut it down16:51
GeeksOnHugssuccesfully16:51
=== ed__ is now known as ed2578765
GeeksOnHugsI get it where it boots right back into X windows or it is just a black screen and not responsive at all16:52
lordievaderGeeksOnHugs: The non-free drivers do seem to have better performance. But you can also use jockey.16:52
GeeksOnHugsalso when it boots there is no option for like safe mode or anything which I've seen on dual boot installations16:52
GeeksOnHugsOh, I can pay for good drivers?  I'm willing to pay for something that works16:53
lordievaderGeeksOnHugs: To launch jockey go to the menu -> Applications -> System -> Additional Drivers16:53
GeeksOnHugsI think it uses jockey now, that sounds familiar16:53
lordievaderGeeksOnHugs: With non-free I mean proprietary. Meaning they are closed source.16:53
ed2578765hi, anyone know any  nice looking player to play mp3 for kubuntu? also anyone knows how to exit x-server (I am trying to install nvida idrivers and its asking me that), thanks16:53
lordievaderGeeksOnHugs: They are still free :)16:54
GeeksOnHugsoh lol16:54
lordievadered2578765: Amarok isn't working for you?16:54
GeeksOnHugsso you mean, the ones from nvidia.com?16:54
ed2578765yeah, and I dont find amarok nice, or maybe need some custom skins?16:55
lordievadered2578765: To kill X, type ctrl + alt + F1, this will get you to the tty. From here if you issue the command: "sudo service kdm stop" you will kill X.16:55
lordievadered2578765: On kde-look.org you can get skins for all kinds of kde related software.16:56
GeeksOnHugsthis is my case by the way, check it out http://commodoreusa.net/CUSA_C64.aspx16:56
lordievaderGeeksOnHugs: The driver that jockey recommends is probably the same as the one from nvidia's site.16:56
GeeksOnHugsi see...well it actually has two listed...can I post a screenshot here to show you?16:56

GeeksOnHugshttp://imagebin.org/21586317:01
lordievaderGeeksOnHugs: Have you made the case yourself btw?17:01
GeeksOnHugsno, I bought the case from that company and I built the system from there17:02
GeeksOnHugsit's stupid expensive but I really wanted it for nostalgia17:02
lordievaderGeeksOnHugs: It seems you are already running the proprietary driver, and you are using ubuntu. This is the kubuntu help channel. For ubuntu help you need to have the #ubuntu channel here on freenode.17:03
GeeksOnHugsI'm not handy enough but I bet it could be cuistom made with an original case17:03
GeeksOnHugswhat's kubuntu for?17:03
lordievaderGeeksOnHugs: Kubuntu is running KDE, where Ubuntu is using Unity/Gnome. Different window managers.17:03

BluesKajwilhart, what do tou mean , the hardware , sudo lshw ..it'll be the 2nd item listed17:34
BluesKajyou17:34
lorddeltahmm...any good wifi apps? I'm looking for something with extensive capabilities, more importantly the ability to tell me the positional data of wifi signals.17:36
lorddeltaLike Xirrus Wifi monitor, I don't know if anyone ever used that, it lets you know where the wifi signals are physically coming from.17:37
BluesKajlorddelta, wifi siganls , how are they id'd ?17:38
wilhartBluesKaj: i just wanna know the spec of the motherboards audio!?17:38
wilhartBluesKaj: if i should use it or my soundblaster x-fi17:39
lorddeltaBluesKaj: ? I mean, if I'm sitting at x,y location, I see a radar graph telling me that 'a' router is theta degrees from my left, and approximately 2x as far away as 'b' router17:39
BluesKajspec , or chip name ? , run aplay -l for the name , or open alsamixer17:40
lorddeltaAnd 'b' router is theta_2 degrees from my right.17:40
lorddeltaor theta+ 90 degrees from my left17:40
lordievaderwilhart: Your soundblaster is probably better quality wise.17:40
lorddeltaI've seen it done, e.g. the Xirrus wifi desktop app in win7...17:40
BluesKajlorddelta, I think wicd might have such a map17:41
lorddeltaBluesKaj: hmm thnx I'll look into it.17:41
wilhartlordievader: dunno this is 8 channel motherboard audio17:43
wilhartlordievader: my soundblaster started bugging it lplayed audio in doublespeed17:43
BluesKajwilhart, what's the chip in alsamixer ?17:43
wilhartsec.17:43
wilhartBluesKaj:17:44
lordievaderwilhart: Usually the audio chips on motherboards don't have very high quality DAC's.17:44
wilhartBluesKaj: Card: HDA Intel                                      │17:44
wilhart│ Chip: Realtek ALC88817:44
wilhartlordievader: yes i noticed17:44
wilhartlordievader: no treble here17:44
wilhartlordievader: any idea why the soundblaster plays in doublespeed17:45
BluesKajwilhart, that's pretty common ...aamof  I have the same onboard , but switched to a pci soundcard due the crappy AD converter in it17:46
wilhartBluesKaj: should i buy a new soundblaster ?17:46
wilharti think my broke17:46
wilhartor then it could be software failure17:46
BluesKajwilhart,I can't tell you what to buy ..i can only relate my experience17:47
wilhartBluesKaj: what did you buy then ?17:47
BluesKajwilhart, most likely a corrpt driver17:48
wilhartwonder what's wrong with that soundblaster17:48
wilhartBluesKaj: is there any drivers for it then??17:48
BluesKajwilhart, I don't have a normal pc sound setup , I feed the spdif digital signal to a digital conveter on my audio amplifier17:49

qwand whether there is a Live CD for Linux?18:19
bdizzlehi, quick question. I just ordered a new webcam as the built-in webcam on my laptop is only 1.3 MP and insufficient for an interview I have coming in a few weeks18:25
bdizzleis there a way on linux to switch between the two webcams or to set it so that when the camera connected via USB is detected, it temporarily disables the built-in18:26
lorddeltabdizzle: wouldn't you set that in skype/whathaveyou?18:42
lorddeltaNot an expert, but it doesn't seem like the OS's job.18:42

bkbaba<lordievader> does the change in the grub error mess mean i have installed the grub on the wrong partition?19:16
jamil_1wonder when will the  golden bulb in tray which produces nothing but a black screen be fixed ?19:17
lordievaderbkbaba: Could be, are you in a live-cd now or in the actual install?19:17
lordievaderjamil_1: Could you send a screenshot with the light bulb, it is probably muon telling you there are system updates available.19:18
bkbabam chatting from another pc, on the wrongly installed pc i am on the live pc now19:18
jamil_1lordievader: sure19:19

jamil_1I am able to minimize it and even close it, but it is annoying19:25
jamil_1ok19:25
lordievaderjamil_1: I can understand that, but to be honest I have never seen it before.19:26
lordievaderThe icon I mean.19:26
jamil_1lordievader: I waited that it would be fixed in the updates but I haven't seen a single update pertaining to this issue19:27
jamil_1I guess I am the only one with this issue19:27
lordievaderjamil_1: There where no updates?19:28
jamil_1waiting .....19:28
lordievaderjamil_1: I mean in sudo apt-get.19:29
jamil_1lordievader: I got this with apt-get update: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1034349/19:30
jamil_1and for apt-get upgrade I get , 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded19:31
lordievaderjamil_1: You have some key errors. But no updates. That means it is, probably, not muon.19:32
lordievaderjamil_1: Could you run "ps aux|grep apport"19:33
jamil_1lordievader: shows nothing except grep itself19:33
lordievaderAnd  "ps aux|grep apport-collect"19:34
jamil_1lordievader: nope, no such process19:35
lordievaderjamil_1: What could it be then.... I wonder.19:35
cancerlordievader: hey19:36
=== dave is now known as Guest20929
lordievaderjamil_1: Not sure if you know what processes are normally running on your system else you could look through the "ps aux" command manually trying to find it.19:36
bkbaba<lordievader> thanks a ton man......... it worked, didn install the boot - repair, but i had mounted the wrong partition, thanks a ton....................19:36
cancerwhat 'ps' command is use for?19:36
lordievaderlordievader: Or perhaps "ps -U <user-name>" is easier.19:36
jamil_1lordievader: `ps aux | grep update` show this: /usr/bin/python /usr/share/apt-xapian-index/update-apt-xapian-index-dbus19:37
lordievaderHey cancer, the "ps" command shows running processes.19:37
lordievaderjamil_1: Do you have apt-get still running? Or any other package manager?19:38
cancerlordievader, how are you doing :), and can we use 'less' (page break) with it?19:38
lordievaderbkbaba: No problem, not sure what I did, but I'm glad you fixed it :)19:38
jamil_1lordievader: nope19:38

lordievaderjamil_1: Ok well than you could kill it, if it goes away you know that that process is responsible for the black window. (This might make your system instable though)19:39
lordievadercancer: You can pipe anything to less, fun thing about linux, anything can go anywhere.19:40
jamil_1lordievader: I just killed it, it wasn't the one:)19:40
lordievaderjamil_1: :(19:40
cancerps -U <username> less? <<<< like that.19:41
cancer'pkill to kill any process?19:42
cancer'pkill'?19:42
lordievadercancer: To pipe things you need |, for example running "ps aux| grep konsole" would pipe the output from the "ps aux" command to grep who looks for konsole.19:42
lordievadercancer: So your command would be: ps -U <username> | less19:43
lordievadercancer: It's "kill <pid>"19:43
cancerok, tanks.19:44
cancerbut i used 'pkill' last time to kill a process.19:44
lordievadercancer: In linux there are allways more ways to skin a cat: http://www.thegeekstuff.com/2009/12/4-ways-to-kill-a-process-kill-killall-pkill-xkill/19:44
lordievadercancer: Both work, I just tend to use kill.19:45
cancerok, kill without pill is simple.19:46
jamil_1lordievader: apparently it was launched by kdeinit19:46
lordievaderjamil_1: So what is it anyway, or better, what is it supposed to be?19:47
jamil_1jamil     1811  0.1  2.3 1159348 92816 ?       Sl   Jun08   3:49 kdeinit4: kded4 [kdeinit]19:47
jamil_1don't know, ksysguard shows that its kdeinit19:47
jamil_1lordievader: I never signed up for that :)19:47
jamil_1and it is apparently daemon process19:47
lordievaderjamil_1: Not sure about kdeinit, but usually a init process is made to launch other processes. Or at least I have gotten kernel panics in the past when something tried to kill init...19:48
jamil_1lordievader: yep killing init process is bad idea, most probably kdeinit is parent of this process19:49
jamil_1lordievader: I have can close this notification without any harm but its annoying19:50
lordievaderjamil_1: Yes, probably. Still strange though that it just shows a black screen.19:50
cancerlordievader: how to check linux version?19:51
lordievaderjamil_1: Maybe someone else know a solution or you could try the forums (kubuntuforums.net | ubuntuforums.org)19:51
canceruname -a / ????19:51
vincenzociao19:51
vincenzolist!19:51
lordievadercancer: Do you mean what linux kernel you are running or the ubuntu version?19:52
jamil_1lordievader: ok, thanks for the help19:52
lordievaderjamil_1: No problem, hope you'll solve it!19:52
cancerlordievader: no i mean if some de is installed. any DE version19:53
canceruname -a will obiously bring kernel version.19:53
lordievadercancer: de? What do you mean?19:54
Snowhogcancer: Assuming you are using KDE, open a console and type: verison kde19:54
lordievadercancer: Do you mean the command: lsb_release -a?19:54
canceryes19:54
cancerlsb.....19:54
Snowhogcancer: Dang. Never mind. Not what I was thinking of.19:55
cancerSnowhog: mind telling what actually was in you mind?19:59
cancerlordievader: and it works for all linux distro's as well?20:00
lordievadercancer: The lsb command? No idea never tried it anywhere else.20:00
cancerwhat is 'b_release'?20:01
lordievadercancer: I have no b_release command.20:02
cancerlordievader: no, you just showed me 'lsb_release -a'. that's what i'm asking about.20:03
lordievadercancer: Well it shows you ubuntu related info, like the Distribution id, the release, the codename, etc.20:06
Snowhogcancer: Are you asking what DE you are currently using, or what additional DE's you might also have installed?20:06
cancerSnowhog: i was asking about your thinkings, those brought that 'Dang' with big D. :-p20:08
cancer<Snowhog> cancer: Dang. Never mind. Not what I was thinking of.20:08
