Guest75738hi i hope someone can help. I'm moving house so o2 have given me a mobile dongle while my broadband moves. However I can't get it working. Network manager detects it and it comes up with all the defaults etc but it won't connect. It should be prepaid or pay as you go, but on selecting all different contract/pay types and trying to connect the authorisation screen just pops back up again. Can anyone please help?11:27

velhoBluesKaj, my interest started more then 10 years ago (gosh, how many time!) but I just became an OFFICIAL ubuntu user THIS WEEK :D13:29
BluesKajvelho,  "official" , ok what's your definition ?13:30
velhoBlaXpirit, I mean I'm finally becaming a true user13:31
BlaXpiritoh come on, improve your aiming skills13:31
velhoBlaXpirit, sorry, it was not for you13:31
BlaXpiritbut i know13:31
velhoBluesKaj, I mean I'm finally becaming a true user13:32
=== spawn[dead] is now known as spawn57
velhoBluesKaj, I must use Windows, but for the everyda stuff, I'm converting to linux13:32
BlaXpiritpro tip: go though all the settings. (if you're using KDE, of course)13:33
BluesKajyes , velho  a lot of us have to use windows , such a shame13:33
velhoBlaXpirit, "aiming skils"? was that message for me?13:34
BlaXpirityes, it's quite obvious that you missed BluesKaj and hit me, but no problem13:35
velhoBlaXpirit, BluesKaj I'm using ubuntu, not KDE. I like KDE more, but I'm giving gnome a try13:35
BlaXpiritwell it's a Kubuntu channel... that's for KDE13:35
velhoBlaXpirit, I made that mistake twice. will not happen again, I'm sorry13:35
BlaXpirit(i think so)13:36
BluesKajgnome is ok , but I prefer kde ,, it's much more configurable , and I like the 'look' much more13:36
velhoBlaXpirit, yes. KDE= Kubunto Gnome= Ubuntu XDE=Xubuntu13:36
BlaXpirityes, yes, i know, i'm just not sure about the channels13:36
velhoBluesKaj, KDE is more like windows13:37
velhocan I have Ubuntu and Kubuntu installed, with no compatibility problems?13:38
BlaXpiriti'm afraid that's impossible without any consequences at all13:38
BluesKajI'm on W7 atm , updating , but dunno how long this install is going to be here , I don't use for anything so far13:39
BlaXpiritwell, once we have Steam on Linux, Adobe will be the main problem13:40
BluesKajThinking of using this drive for an experimental OS , but I haven't found one that interests me yet13:41
BlaXpiritjust use virtual machines...13:41
velhoBluesKaj, if you don't use Windws for anything, why  installing it?13:42
mc_montivelho: Ubuntu and Kubuntu? Why don't you just install both desktop managers: KDE and maybe Unity or Gnome?13:43
BluesKajI was going to join netflix , but the movies they have don't appeal to me much (wife and I are older and retired) , there isn't much there of interest to us.13:44
BlaXpiritit seems like no good movies are released at all13:45
BlaXpiriti wouldn't even want to watch the modern movies even for free, and to pay for them...13:45
BluesKajok ,back to kubuntu ...see you in a bit13:46
francesco_kde 4.9 su kubuntu 12.04, ci sarà nei repo ufficiali?13:47
BlaXpiritalready is for a long time13:48
BlaXpiritfrancesco_, https://launchpad.net/~kubuntu-ppa/+archive/backports13:48
BlaXpiritit's even in the channel topic -_-13:49
francesco_i must add this ppa:ppa:kubuntu-ppa/backports13:49
BlaXpirityes. it won't be added to the default 12.04 repositories, i think13:49
francesco_ok...thnaks.bb13:50
velhomc_monti, that's what I meant! can I do that without having to install all the progs again?13:51
velhomc_monti, just changing desktop managers inside the same system?13:51
BlaXpiritwell you can install both environments at once and select which one you want to use during login13:52
BlaXpiritit's about as easy as installing applications in the package manager13:52
mc_montiYou can choose, either to install the whole package with all programs or just kde.13:53
mc_montiif you have an existing Ubuntu installation just add the package kde-standard13:55
mc_montiif you want all the software that comes with a normal kubuntu installation, install the package kubuntu-desktop13:56
BlaXpiritbut it does install a lot of applications13:56
mc_montiNo, kde-standard is pretty much only the desktop manager13:57
mc_montibut you are right concerning the kubuntu-desktop13:58
BlaXpiritkde-standard has Ark, Dragon Player, Gwenview, Juk, Kate, KCalc, KMail, Akregator, KAddressBook, Kopete, Okular13:58
BlaXpiritmaybe even more than Kubuntu13:59
BlaXpiritkde-plasma-desktop is the minimal thing probably14:00

=== spawn57 is now known as spawn[dead]
phiscribehey, im looking at the Theme tab in on the Login Screen in System Settings.  It lists Ariya as the only theme.  I can click the Get New Themes at the bottom, which I have.  I can download themes, but none show in the list of available themes?  What gives? On the window where you download theme, they will show as installed.17:34
phiscribeeh i found it, have to run systemsettings with root priv17:45
monkeyjuiceok screen keeps going black and i cant find it to stop it17:57
monkeyjuice12.0417:57
monkeyjuicelooked in powermanagement    , screensaver, hmmmm17:58
phiscribemonkeyjuice: sure its not hardware? i got an lcd that does that, it gets warmed up and just blanks, no matter the os, guess im monitor shoping soon18:02
phiscribeor maybe a refresh rate it doesnt like?18:02
ircyopHey, when I put my laptop to sleep and press a button on my keyboard, instead of the session resuming the computer just goes thorugh the boot process18:02
monkeyjuicejust tryed xset s noblank   will see18:03
BluesKajircyop, how big is you swap partition compared to your RAM18:04
ircyop4 gigs of swap18:06
ircyop4 gigs of ram18:06
ircyopBluesKaj:18:06
BluesKajircyop, make sure swap is at least 512 mb larger than your RAM18:06
ircyopOh okay, this is how it was set automatically18:06
ircyopby Kubuntu18:06
ircyopthrough the install BluesKaj18:07
BluesKaj I was lectured on that already once today , bt someone who seems to know18:07
BluesKajby18:07
ircyopah okat18:07
ircyopIt seems strange that Kubuntu's auto installl wouldn't do that automatically18:08
BluesKajircyop, I've never used the auto-install method , I always use the manual , and I preset the the partitions beforehand ..the rule was,  swap =1.5XRAM18:22
ircyopWhen I was using gentoo the rule was 2x BluesKaj.  So my bad18:23
BluesKajnothing "bad" about it , as long as it's somewhat larger18:24
monkeyjuicena its still going black ;(18:24
BluesKajmonkeyjuice, I set scrnsaver and power mngmnt dim to 180 mins , but the scrn still goes dark after not moving the mouse or using the KB after 1518:26

Guest23518help! kubuntu 12.04.1 ubiquiti doesn't see any disk :( but fdisk do20:18
Guest23518i can't install :(20:18
Guest23518in fdisk i can do everything with disk20:19
[Raiden]try testdist to fix.20:20
[Raiden]testdisk20:20
Guest23518Disk is good :P20:21
BluesKajGuest23518, is the disk formatted ?20:21
[Raiden]partition table may be not good20:21
Guest23518beacuse there is 2 other systems :P20:21
Guest23518fdisk > o > w20:21
Guest23518i did20:21
Guest23518and then restart computetr20:21
Guest23518computer*20:21
Guest23518there was*20:21
monkeyjuicehow many partitions are on the hard drive20:22
BluesKajGuest23518, if you have 4 primary partitions , in cluding swap then you can't install unless you make one of them an extended20:23
Guest23518http://paste.kde.org/545048/20:23
Guest23518thats how look disk at now20:23
BluesKajyou haven't finished editing the partition table Guest23518 , until you do , nothing will install20:25
Guest23518no?20:25
[Raiden]I met with the fact that, after a third-party partitioning software, the installer does not see the partitions. After checking in testdisk everything is ок (google translate:))20:26
BluesKajI suggest you check your partitions with gparted live cd and make sure they are still ok , and that your data is still intact20:26
BluesKajGuest23518, ^20:26
Guest23518in gparted can i create partition with 32GiB Gibibyte?20:27
BluesKajyes , if your partition table allows it20:28
Guest23518fdisk allows it ;) i always make partitions in fdisk, but this is first time when kubuntu wanna something else ... :/20:28
Guest23518and only kubuntu.20:29
Guest23518i checked partition tabke in gparted. everythind is OK20:29
BluesKajthe kubuntu installer has a partitioner that can check and make / or /home partitions if there's room for another primary20:30
Guest23518whole disk is empty20:31
Guest23518he can see only my pendrive20:31
BluesKajyour partition table is waiting for a change , that change must be finished20:34
Guest23518how do that?20:34
BluesKajwhatever you treid to do didn't finish20:34
Guest23518even partprobe says 'good'20:35
BluesKajif your whole disk is empty then just make a new parttion table20:35
Guest23518there is new msdos partition table\20:35
BluesKajwell , your paste shows that the table is altered20:36
Guest23518and then "Calling ioctl() to re-read partition table.20:36
Guest23518Syncing disks."20:36
Guest23518and when i enter fdisk, new partition table is ready20:37
Deet`i have a external drive that failed while loaded in windows xp (fell over, usb port broke). got a new enclosure for it, can access it on windows 7 or xp. would kubuntu be able to mount it?20:40
* BluesKaj shrugs20:40
Deet`is it worth getting a live disk and trying it out?20:41
* Deet` would have a mac book linux if he could get the usb wifi to work :/20:41
BluesKajDeet`, yes kubuntu live can mount it20:42
BluesKajdinnertime bbl...gotta bBQ20:42
