KarmaComa | Hi guys, I cant get my 1600x1200 projector working properly with my Full HDTV.. latest thing I could do is making it right to HD with full resolusion, but when I play any flash video it appears in the center of both! I have googled that and it seems like eternal bug, any help would appreciated. | 02:17 |
---|---|---|
SIR_Taco | KarmaComa: as far as I know... that's, unfortunately, the way it is... Flash is a binary which runs the way Adobe wants it to. | 02:20 |
KarmaComa | yeah :( | 02:20 |
KarmaComa | I found a hack script but didnt help | 02:21 |
SIR_Taco | KarmaComa: yea, there isn't really a nice solution to that unfortunately | 02:22 |
SIR_Taco | unless someone knows something I don't | 02:23 |
KarmaComa | rekonq is showing any Flash properly though, when I make it full screen on HD it appears only on HD, and same for VGA, only rekonq! dunno why, it's using flash plugin as well | 02:23 |
KarmaComa | but I'm a web developer and it always shows a different values than the written one in CSS, cant use rekonq | 02:24 |
SIR_Taco | KarmaComa: Rekonq is still a little wonky | 02:28 |
SIR_Taco | even in the latest beta release | 02:28 |
KarmaComa | true, you cant depend on | 02:28 |
SIR_Taco | there are some <div> and <span> situations which still mess up on Rekonq | 02:30 |
KarmaComa | yeah indeed | 02:38 |
SIR_Taco | Anyone know the guys that run the Inkscape project? | 02:51 |

govind | i mean error. | 03:27 |
SIR_Taco | but the konsole one is working?? | 03:28 |
govind | now it's working.. but in 3 minutes, it will stop, as power goes. | 03:28 |
SIR_Taco | govind: well you need to wait for the konsole commands to complete before you can install other packages | 03:29 |
SIR_Taco | it would seem my support contract just ran out | 03:34 |
SIR_Taco | Anyway, going to bed.... if anyone is around and can help govind if/when s/he comes back, that would be greatly appreciated | 03:36 |

nezumi_ | hello - can some good soul help me a bit - I just installed Kubuntu | 04:58 |
nezumi_ | since I am complete noob - how to install nvidia drivers.. before my monitor will burn my eyes with 50kHz | 05:00 |
=== cary is now known as Guest93103 | ||
Guest93103 | huskerdu8 | 05:06 |
nezumi_ | anybody? I am burning my eyes here :D | 05:09 |
susundberg | nezumi_: !nvidia | 05:09 |
susundberg | mh, sorry | 05:09 |
susundberg | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia | 05:09 |
nezumi_ | thank you - you know as windows user I use to click instalator ;) | 05:10 |
nezumi_ | so I am noobie lost in here | 05:10 |
susundberg | No worries, in the package manager is just bit easier than windows 'find some drivers, click million ok and get shitload of useless stuff' | 05:11 |
nezumi_ | hah true | 05:13 |
nezumi_ | well it is hard at the beginning - I dont see anything for drivers... your link says "Go to System -> Administration -> Additional Drivers" but unless I am looking in wrong place theres nothing like that | 05:14 |
susundberg | ya, sorry those were instructions for kubuntu | 05:15 |
susundberg | nezumi_: open the launcher and write 'package' to the search field | 05:15 |
em | nezumi_: on kubuntu try Applications > System > Additional drivers | 05:15 |
susundberg | oh that sounds good | 05:15 |
susundberg | or write 'additional' to the launch search field | 05:16 |
nezumi_ | searching... | 05:16 |
nezumi_ | thank you guys - REALLY appreciate help | 05:16 |
em | we just typed additional drivers and already tankdriver showed up | 05:17 |
nezumi_ | while I am updating driver - can you give me small hint where to get Krita and MyPaint? It is in repository right but... where to look for it | 05:20 |
susundberg | you can install all the applications that are in the repository with package manager | 05:22 |
susundberg | (see 'package' above) | 05:23 |
nezumi_ | ow I got it thanks | 05:24 |
nezumi_ | I have linux for 5 minutes and I already like it | 05:24 |
nezumi_ | :D | 05:24 |
nezumi_ | sorry for surely dumb questions | 05:24 |
nezumi_ | need to restart - hope you dont mind if I come back to ask some more | 05:25 |
susundberg | we dont, happy booting | 05:25 |
nezumi_ | thx | 05:25 |
=== kubuntu is now known as Guest6418 | ||
nezumi_ | hmmm--- any idea why in system settings/display and monitor I have 50Hz and in nvidia x-server 60Hz? | 05:37 |
nezumi_ | it should be 60 but ... what I really have now :/ | 05:37 |
tsimpson | you should probably ignore the system settings values, and just go with what the nvidia program reports | 05:38 |
nezumi_ | ok I guess I would notice after a while when my head blow up... | 05:39 |
hateball | Yep, if you use the binary nvidia driver xrandr and such wont report properly | 05:40 |
hateball | you have to rely on nvidia-settings | 05:40 |
nezumi_ | ok... ummm now just one thing left - wacom driver... | 05:41 |
nezumi_ | wacom tablet | 05:41 |
nezumi_ | wacom works great | 05:44 |
nezumi_ | Krita is CRAZY faster on linuks | 05:44 |
nezumi_ | linuX haha sorry | 05:44 |
nezumi_ | the only problem now - I see that I installed Krita 2.4 and 2.5 was released already | 05:45 |
hateball | How is that a problem? :) | 05:46 |
hateball | Unless you of course have to run the latest version for some reason | 05:47 |
nezumi_ | I am trying to help in development so yeah I would like to run latest | 05:47 |
nezumi_ | Catching bugs and stuff, you know | 05:48 |
nezumi_ | even 2.4 is LOT better here then 2.5 in windows | 05:48 |
hateball | You can add ppa:kubuntu-ppa/backports and upgrade | 05:48 |
tsimpson | if you're working on the development of krita, then your best option is to compile from VCS | 05:48 |
nezumi_ | I am not working on it - more like working on iit and trying to report as many bugs as I can. | 05:49 |
nezumi_ | but I am happy owner of linux for last hour or so ... so completely newbie | 05:50 |
tsimpson | it depends if you want the "latest release" or "bleeding edge" | 05:50 |
nezumi_ | latest release is fine | 05:50 |
nezumi_ | hateball - where to add it? Sorry I really JUST got on linux board | 05:50 |
hateball | nezumi_: in a terminal: sudo apt-add-repository ppa:kubuntu-ppa/backports | 05:51 |
hateball | nezumi_: note that it's backports of more than just Krita | 05:52 |
nezumi_ | thx | 05:52 |
tsimpson | also, there's a graphical way to add repositories: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Kubuntu | 05:52 |
hateball | nezumi_: are you familiar with how Kubuntu works, in the sense that version upgrades are not rolling? | 05:52 |
nezumi_ | not at all - I just installed linux for the forst time in my life | 05:53 |
hateball | nezumi_: Well each release has "frozen" version numbers, that's the reason you don't automatically get the latest version of things | 05:54 |
nezumi_ | I was using krita on windows for a while now but as great as it is it is slow as hell in win | 05:54 |
nezumi_ | ow ok | 05:55 |
hateball | But you can obviously always add a PPA, or compile from source. Or just wait 6 months for the next release :) | 05:56 |
nezumi_ | NOOOOOO ;) | 05:56 |
nezumi_ | not 6 months | 05:56 |
nezumi_ | ;) | 05:56 |
zhengyi | k | 05:57 |
nezumi_ | would you believe if I told you that I dont know where terminal is ? | 05:57 |
nezumi_ | :D | 05:57 |
hateball | nezumi_: alt+f2, type <anything> | 05:57 |
hateball | nezumi_: or just go the GUI way like tsimpson linked | 05:57 |
zhengyi | yeah | 05:58 |
nezumi_ | thx on it | 05:58 |
tsimpson | in Windows you have that DOS shell (CMD), take that and make it actually useful, and you have a linux-style terminal :) | 05:58 |
hateball | :) | 05:59 |
hateball | One could argue that goes for anything Windows compared to Linux, but that would be an OT discussion | 05:59 |
tsimpson | it's a text-based interface, instead of clicking a mouse, you type each "command" to the computer, and it runs it there, possibly showing any output/result back | 05:59 |
nezumi_ | I heard so many legends about linux - not a good ones haha | 05:59 |
hateball | !terminal | 05:59 |
ubottu | The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome), K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE), or Menu -> Accessories -> LXTerminal (LXDE). Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal | 05:59 |
hateball | Getting friendly with krunner (alt+f2) will make your experience much nicer | 06:00 |
nezumi_ | I am old enough to remember times with such computers as spectrum or c64 so I know whats that - I was just never using it. I went from C64 to Amiga to PC on windows | 06:00 |
tsimpson | if you become comfortable with the terminal, you can often do things a lot faster. that's why people often give the command-line way to do things, it's often just a lot quicker to do something than describing where each mouse press must go | 06:01 |
nezumi_ | I can imagine | 06:01 |
hateball | You can simple copy/paste a command as well, as compared to clicking through 50 GUI windows | 06:01 |
nezumi_ | where can I change keyboard settings - need to check it | 06:01 |
hateball | alt+f2, type "keyboard" :p | 06:02 |
nezumi_ | I got english system and spanish keyboard | 06:02 |
nezumi_ | hahaha | 06:02 |
nezumi_ | its THAT easy? | 06:02 |
hateball | yes | 06:02 |
nezumi_ | it really is easy haha | 06:06 |
nezumi_ | thx guys getting there slowly | 06:06 |
hateball | :) | 06:07 |
sonismcnx | join #sonismcnx | 06:08 |
sonismcnx | ups, sorry | 06:08 |
=== sonismcnx is now known as help | ||

=== Guest51360 is now known as sonismcnx | ||
nezumi_ | hmmm cant get that Krita 2.5 - I entered sudo apt-add-repository ppa:kubuntu-ppa/backports but nothing happened really | 06:46 |
sonismcnx | that command was for adding repository, not installing the prgoram itself | 06:48 |
nezumi_ | yeah I got that much but cant find that repository... Should be in moon package manager right? | 06:51 |
hateball | nezumi_: either use a graphical update manager, or: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade | 06:51 |
nezumi_ | I would use that graphical but I dont have any "Add and Remove Software" in system settings so cant follow whats on given page | 06:53 |
=== pjoe_afk is now known as pjoe | ||
hateball | nezumi_: alt+f2, "update" ;) | 06:53 |
tsimpson | it's not in system settings, it's called Muon Package Manager | 06:54 |
hateball | Since you already have Krita installed, you want to upgrade, not install | 06:54 |
nezumi_ | oook | 06:54 |
tsimpson | best approach is to only upgrade krita (and what it depends on), rather than a full upgrade of all packages in that PPA | 06:54 |
tsimpson | (unless you want the latest KDE that is) | 06:54 |
nezumi_ | I just care about Krita really | 06:55 |
tsimpson | then you just open the package manager, click "check for updates", then type in krita in the search box and mark it for upgrade | 06:56 |
tsimpson | once you press "apply changes" it should tell you about what else it wants to upgrade, then ask for your password to update the packages | 06:57 |
nezumi_ | feel like stupid but I dont have any updates for Krita - Krita (i386) is 32 bit right? | 07:00 |
tsimpson | if you're running the 64bit (AMD64) version of Kubuntu, then you want to look for just "Krita" without the (i386) | 07:01 |
nezumi_ | yeah thats what I have installed | 07:02 |
tsimpson | make sure "Check for Updates", that will download the (updated) list of packages from all your software sources | 07:02 |
nezumi_ | ok so... this "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade" I have to paste in...? (really sorry - just want to solve it) | 07:02 |
tsimpson | well, if you want to go the command-line way, you first want to open a terminal, it's called "Konsole" in Kubuntu | 07:03 |
nezumi_ | shift f2 right | 07:03 |
tsimpson | Alt-F2, then type in "konsole" | 07:04 |
tsimpson | or find it in the applications menu (somewhere) | 07:04 |
tsimpson | then you can type in "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install krita", that will just upgrade krita and the things it needs | 07:04 |
tsimpson | after that, you can remove the kubuntu-ppa/backports PPA repository, to prevent those updates | 07:05 |
nezumi_ | krita is already the newest version. | 07:06 |
nezumi_ | 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded | 07:06 |
nezumi_ | hmmm | 07:06 |
tsimpson | what version of Kubuntu are you running? | 07:07 |
nezumi_ | latest I believe I just downloaded yesterday | 07:07 |
provolik | Hi to all | 07:07 |
provolik | I have juast installed Kubuntu 12.04, but I cannot set up dual monitor. I have nvidia card drivers+ | 07:08 |
tsimpson | nezumi_: can you show the result of: "apt-cache policy krita" | 07:08 |
provolik | when I run nvidia-settings it says to me "You do not appear to be using the NVIDIA X driver. Please edit your X configuration file (just run `nvidia-xconfig` as root), and restart the X server." | 07:09 |
nezumi_ | Installed: 1:2.4.0-0ubuntu2.1 | 07:10 |
provolik | I tried to give the nvidia-xconfig command and restart but the issue remains... | 07:10 |
tsimpson | nezumi_: and the same version is listed next to "Candidate:"? | 07:10 |
nezumi_ | yes | 07:11 |
tsimpson | nezumi_: can you check the output of "ls /etc/apt/sources.list.d", you should see something like "kubuntu-ppa-precise.list" | 07:12 |
nezumi_ | bash: ls/etc/apt/sources.list.d: No such file or directory | 07:17 |
tsimpson | there is a spaces between "ls" and the first "/" | 07:18 |
nezumi_ | khmm ;) | 07:18 |
tsimpson | everyone makes that mistake at some point :) | 07:18 |
nezumi_ | ummm nothing | 07:20 |
nezumi_ | didnt showed anything | 07:20 |
tsimpson | looks like the software source wasn't added then | 07:20 |
nezumi_ | wasnt added to repository? | 07:21 |
tsimpson | in this context, "repository" and "source" are interchangeable | 07:21 |
tsimpson | did you run the command "sudo apt-add-repository ppa:kubuntu-ppa/backports" in the Alt-F2 box, or in a terminal? | 07:21 |
nezumi_ | in the alt-F2 box | 07:22 |
nezumi_ | didnt happened anything - syrely I should in terminal right?? | 07:22 |
tsimpson | ahh, well that command changed in the last release, it asks you to confirm now and so it needs to be in a terminal | 07:22 |
nezumi_ | ok let me type it in | 07:23 |
nezumi_ | thx for your time man | 07:23 |
tsimpson | there is the GUI way too, but if you have a terminal open, you can just copy and paste "sudo apt-add-repository ppa:kubuntu-ppa/backports", then it'll ask you to confirm by pressing enter/return | 07:23 |
tsimpson | after than, re-run the "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install krita" command | 07:23 |
nezumi_ | You are about to add the following PPA to your system: | 07:24 |
nezumi_ | Backports of new versions of KDE and major KDE apps for Kubuntu which are either too large a change or not yet tested enough to go to Ubuntu Backports. | 07:24 |
tsimpson | that's the one | 07:24 |
tsimpson | after you've upgraded krita, you can run "sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/kubuntu-ppa-backports-precise.list && sudo apt-get update", to remove the repository and prevent other packages from that source/repository from being updated | 07:25 |
nezumi_ | looks like it is working | 07:26 |
nezumi_ | downloading some stuff | 07:26 |
nezumi_ | I owe you man | 07:26 |
tsimpson | itsn't it nice when things start working ;) | 07:26 |
nezumi_ | are those comments good for the future as well? | 07:27 |
nezumi_ | like Krita 2.6 when it appears | 07:27 |
nezumi_ | so I will note them down somewhere | 07:27 |
tsimpson | if 2.6 gets put in the same repository, then you can just do exactly the same thing again yes | 07:27 |
nezumi_ | as for windows dude I feel like I am sending Curiosity 2 to Mars, not just upgrading software | 07:28 |
nezumi_ | :D | 07:28 |
tsimpson | the main thing you have to remember about linux distributions compared to windows, is that in linux there is usually more than one way to do any given thing | 07:29 |
tsimpson | including something as "simple" as installing software | 07:29 |
tsimpson | so it helps to have a curious/exploring mind-set | 07:29 |
nezumi_ | I just need to read something about those commands | 07:29 |
nezumi_ | now I have no clue what I am doing - just copying pasting | 07:29 |
tsimpson | there's a command for that ;) it's call "man" and is short for "manual". you can type in "man apt-get" for instance too see the manual page for that command | 07:30 |
tsimpson | (press the 'q' key to exit it) | 07:30 |
tsimpson | there's also an online version on http://manpages.ubuntu.com in case you just want to read about it in a browser | 07:30 |
nezumi_ | hah lots of info - thank you! | 07:31 |
tsimpson | no problem | 07:31 |
nezumi_ | looks like it finished | 07:31 |
nezumi_ | "ldconfig deferred processing now taking place" | 07:31 |
nezumi_ | should I run last comand you gave me then? | 07:31 |
tsimpson | yes | 07:31 |
nezumi_ | ok Captain | 07:32 |
nezumi_ | ;) | 07:32 |
nezumi_ | done.. lets see Krita then | 07:32 |
nezumi_ | HA! | 07:33 |
nezumi_ | you did it! | 07:33 |
nezumi_ | ;) | 07:33 |
nezumi_ | thank you so much | 07:33 |
tsimpson | you're welcome :) | 07:33 |
nezumi_ | Now... I hope there is Mypaint hahaha | 07:33 |
nezumi_ | where are you from btw | 07:33 |
nezumi_ | heres Mexico | 07:34 |
tsimpson | I'm in the UK | 07:34 |
nezumi_ | I'm not Mexican but here I am - Im Polish | 07:34 |
nezumi_ | ha - you got (too?) many polish there now | 07:34 |
nezumi_ | I was living in London few years - maybe I will come back one day.. | 07:35 |
tsimpson | heh, probably a good idea to avoid the "too many polish" debate :p | 07:36 |
nezumi_ | no man - why do you think I left - I never liked them :D | 07:37 |

nezumi_ | np | 07:39 |
hateball | nezumi_: And yes, mypaint is in the repos | 07:40 |
hateball | As well as GIMP, if you use that | 07:41 |
nezumi_ | yeah got it already | 07:42 |

nezumi_ | the backports ppa for MyPaint.... | 08:11 |
hateball | nezumi_: I don't know *all* the PPAs :) However, google suggests there is a rolling release PPA for mypaint. ppa:achadwick/mypaint-testing | 08:13 |
hateball | nezumi_: use at your own peril ! | 08:14 |
nezumi_ | thx | 08:15 |
nezumi_ | I dont even know what PPA stands for yet haha | 08:15 |

provolik | I have juast installed Kubuntu 12.04, but I cannot set up dual monitor. I have nvidia card drivers | 08:16 |
provolik | when I run nvidia-settings it says to me "You do not appear to be using the NVIDIA X driver. Please edit your X configuration file (just run `nvidia-xconfig` as root), and restart the X server." | 08:16 |
provolik | I tried to give the nvidia-xconfig command and restart but the issue remains... | 08:16 |
provolik | some help? | 08:16 |
hateball | nezumi_: so you can go here https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+ppas and search for $app, and see if it has a PPA that you can add, if need be | 08:16 |
hateball | provolik: you ran the command using sudo? | 08:18 |
provolik | yes | 08:18 |
hateball | Normally jockey should fix all that stuff by itself | 08:18 |
provolik | hateball, yes | 08:18 |
provolik | jockey-kde jockey-text what hateball | 08:19 |
hateball | provolik: jockey-kde, the frontend to install restricted drivers | 08:19 |
hateball | provolik: That's how you installed the driver, right? | 08:20 |
provolik | yes | 08:21 |
provolik | yes hateball | 08:21 |
hateball | provolik: does it show you using the nvidia driver when you run "lspci -k" ? | 08:22 |

provolik | hateball, yes | 08:45 |
provolik | hateball, Kernel driver in use: nvidia | 08:46 |
hateball | hmmm. | 08:46 |
provolik | hateball, maybe I have to specify something: I have two monitor, but I have the same view | 08:46 |
hateball | For some things you need to run nvidia-settings with sudo | 08:47 |
hateball | And after you make your changes there, it should let you write to xorg.conf | 08:47 |
hateball | provolik: ^ | 08:48 |
provolik | hateball, when I try it returns "You do not appear to be using the NVIDIA X driver. Please edit your X configuration file (just run `nvidia-xconfig` as root), and restart the X server." | 08:48 |
hateball | provolik: Then I don't really know. I'm guessing you're using a newer chipset? | 08:49 |
provolik | No hateball , it's a 2009 PC | 08:49 |
provolik | with 11.10 no problem | 08:49 |
hateball | hmm ok | 08:49 |
provolik | another detail | 08:50 |
hateball | no difference if you manually backup xorg.conf first and re-run nvidia-xconfig ? | 08:50 |
provolik | no | 08:50 |
provolik | I tried | 08:50 |
sonism | provolik: sorry for interrupting, did you install the driver from the recovery mode? | 08:50 |
provolik | No sonism | 08:51 |
provolik | Okay guys, I have this error on terminal, after running sudo nvidia-setting | 08:52 |
provolik | Xlib: extension "RANDR" missing on display ":0". | 08:52 |
sonism | provolik: may be you should use recovery mode, the driver need to be compiled using the mode | 08:53 |
provolik | sonism, I will try, however in 11.10 I didn't use recovery mode for nvidia drivers | 08:54 |
hateball | Yeah.. not sure why you'd want to do that. I've certainly never had any issues | 08:55 |
hateball | provolik: A quick google suggests that Xinerama might be enabled in xorg.conf, rather than twinview | 08:55 |
provolik | Option "Xinerama" "1" <- I have this option hateball | 08:56 |
hateball | Try setting it to 0 | 08:56 |
hateball | I'm running nvidia on this machine actually, but my laptop monitor is dead so I only use the external one... and it's been ages since I set it up so I don't actually remember if I had to jump through any hoops :| | 08:57 |
Wulong | So, "picture of the day" on desktop settings does not work. How can I debug this? | 08:57 |
provolik | Okay, I set up xinerama to zero, hateball | 08:57 |
Wulong | Its stuck at "Loading the picture of the day". | 08:57 |
hateball | provolik: Then you need to restart your X session as well | 08:58 |
provolik | okay, see you later | 08:58 |
provolik | I restarte X server | 08:59 |
provolik | Same issue but this time I don't have the randr error hateball | 09:00 |
hateball | ugh :/ | 09:00 |
provolik | hateball, I tried a tutorial and now I cannot star my PC | 09:12 |
provolik | How can I boot in recovery? | 09:13 |
hateball | provolik: hold shift while you boot to get the grub menu | 09:13 |
hateball | question is, what did you do? :p | 09:13 |
provolik | I modified manually xorg.conf | 09:14 |
hateball | didnt you have a backup? you should be able to switch to vtty1 even if X does not start | 09:14 |
hateball | without having to boot in single user mode | 09:14 |
provolik | No the PC freeze.... | 09:15 |
hateball | oh :| | 09:15 |
provolik | I have the temptation to install lubuntu :P | 09:15 |
hateball | It's not like the nvidia drivers will magically work any better there, tho | 09:16 |

FloodBotK1 | !netsplit | 09:16 |
ubottu | netsplit is when two IRC servers of the same network (like freenode) disconnect from each other, so users on one server stop seeing users on the other. If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit | 09:16 |
provolik | Holding shift nothing happens hateball :-/ | 09:17 |
hateball | provolik: right after POST | 09:17 |
hateball | maybe it booted too quick | 09:18 |
provolik | It say to me grub loanding but then it loads normally :-/ | 09:18 |
provolik | I am going to reinstall kubuntu | 09:19 |
provolik | Ok | 09:20 |
provolik | I have the recovery menu hateball | 09:21 |
provolik | what option I need? | 09:21 |
provolik | root? | 09:21 |
hateball | oh I dont remember them off the top of my head, you should have some root console | 09:21 |
provolik | I cannot remove xorg.conf: it says to me read-only filesystem hateball | 09:22 |
hateball | oh how annoying, thought it let you mount rw from grub... you'll need to remount it then | 09:23 |
provolik | how? | 09:23 |
hateball | provolik: "mount -o remount,rw /" should work | 09:24 |
provolik | ok | 09:25 |
hateball | seems there is such an option in the grub menu as well | 09:25 |
provolik | it worked now I am rebooting :-) | 09:25 |
provolik | crossfingers | 09:25 |
hateball | :) | 09:26 |
provolik | now I have only one monitor active hate | 09:26 |
provolik | thanks to god I can run nvidia-settings | 09:27 |
hateball | Not sure she had anything to do with it, but if it works now that's good | 09:28 |
hateball | provolik: So you can set up two monitors and write the xconfig now? | 09:28 |
provolik | yeah | 09:29 |
hateball | Nice | 09:29 |
provolik | dual monitor on-line lad | 09:29 |
provolik | thank you very much hateball | 09:29 |
provolik | I know it's hard with me ;) | 09:29 |
hateball | nvidia drivers are a horror, it's why I've switched to Intel for everything :p | 09:29 |
provolik | Okay | 09:30 |
provolik | now I have to try to reboot hateball | 09:30 |
hateball | Hehe... here's hoping nothing breaks again :p | 09:30 |
provolik | crossfingers worked well | 09:31 |
provolik | it works ;) hateball | 09:32 |
hateball | provolik: Great :) | 09:32 |
provolik | now I can start my job | 09:32 |
provolik | tahnk you :) | 09:32 |

ozoze | hello, why am i not able to download the package aircrack-ng on my kubuntu 12.04 | 10:36 |
hateball | ozoze: Do you get some form of error trying to? | 10:37 |
tsimpson | the aircrack project is dead and the software is unmaintained, so the packages have been removed | 10:38 |
ozoze | hateball: http://pastebin.com/wZvrZZZG | 10:38 |
ozoze | tsimpson: what's the alternative? | 10:38 |
ozoze | (for wep networks?) | 10:39 |
tsimpson | grab it yourself or use their live-cd http://www.aircrack-ng.org/ | 10:40 |
ozoze | tsimpson: what is dead then? just the packages? | 10:41 |
tsimpson | the project as a whole, it hasn't been updated since 2010 | 10:41 |
=== kubuntu is now known as Guest19268 | ||

ozoze | tsimpson: the website seems up-to-date with fresh news from 2012 http://www.aircrack-ng.org/ | 10:53 |
ozoze | hm last release from 04/2010 ok | 10:54 |
Peace- | ozoze: use wap ? | 10:54 |
ozoze | i do use wap | 10:54 |
Peace- | ozoze: i don't remember but maybe it was made in kommander | 10:55 |
Peace- | because kommander was dropped i guess aircrack has done the same | 10:55 |
Peace- | but i am not sure | 10:55 |

ozoze | thanks | 11:00 |
tsimpson | you may also need libsqlite3-dev, though that seems optional | 11:00 |
Peace- | ozoze: french ? | 11:00 |

ozoze | how can i recompile my drivers for packets injection for my "Intel Corporation Ultimate N WiFi Link 5300" card? | 11:07 |

dway | Hi all | 16:27 |
dway | I'm wondering why my 11.10 kubuntu doesn't see any new version of kubuntu with do-release-upgrade -d | 16:28 |
dway | Muon doesn't see any new version too | 16:28 |
dway | so how can I upgrade to 12.04.1 ? | 16:29 |
dway | searching google didn't help | 16:29 |
dway | Is there something to force somewhere ? | 16:29 |
Wizard | dway: Did you update 11.10 first? | 16:30 |
dway | Wizard > yep I'm on 11.10 since months | 16:31 |
dway | up to date | 16:31 |
dway | the do-release-upgrade command says "no new release yet" | 16:31 |
Wizard | That's strange. | 16:32 |
dway | yep | 16:32 |
Pici | What does lsb_release -sc say? | 16:32 |
dway | my install is a classic one | 16:32 |
dway | no exotism | 16:32 |
dway | Pici it says oneiric | 16:33 |
dway | and cat /etc/issue says 11.10 | 16:33 |
Pici | h | 16:33 |
Pici | m. | 16:33 |
Wizard | An what about GNU nano 2.2.6 Plik: /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades ? | 16:34 |
Wizard | Ups. /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades :P | 16:34 |
Wizard | Sorry. | 16:34 |
dway | Wizard > it says : http://paste.kde.org/540782/ | 16:35 |
dway | yes, it's weird :) | 16:36 |
Wizard | Change it to normal and try do-release-upgrade once again. | 16:36 |
dway | ok I do that now | 16:36 |
dway | wow, it seems something is happening | 16:37 |
dway | source.list updated | 16:38 |
dway | looks good | 16:38 |
Wizard | Cool. | 16:38 |
Wizard | You can change it back to lts after upgrade. | 16:38 |
dway | ok, thx Wizard ! | 16:38 |
Wizard | Unless you want use 12.10 ;) | 16:38 |
dway | nope ) | 16:39 |
dway | :) | 16:39 |
Wizard | I mean, with "normal" you will be able to do-release-upgrade when 12.10 will be out. | 16:40 |
dway | yep I get it thx | 16:40 |
Wizard | With "lts" - when 14.04 is. | 16:40 |
Wizard | You're welcome. | 16:40 |
Wizard | Bah, I have to install Kubuntu for my mother. | 16:40 |
