How do I get codecs for flv mp3 etc...? [06:20] really? [06:21] no one here? [06:21] !codecs [06:21] For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/ubuntu-help/media.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats [06:22] you need to add the Medibuntu repository [06:22] no, you don't [06:23] harolddong: I'm total noob please bear with me but how do I add the repository? [06:24] nunya: you don't need to, just go to the first link ubottu gave then click on the kubuntu-restricted-extras link [06:24] and anyway sholdn't installing media players through the package manager pull in whatever codecs are needed? that's the way it always seems to work for me [06:31] tsimpson: thanks to you and ubottu for being helpful. === 36DACJROU is now known as liot_ === jeff_ is now known as Guest11628 === LordOfTime is now known as TheLordOfTime === pjoe_afk is now known as pjoe === pjoe is now known as pjoe_dj [07:53] #join #kde [09:29] After trying a distupgrade from 10.04.04 to the next LTS, I no longer can boot my machine. Quite bad. It looks like no grub record for the new kernel was created, and if I manually in grub say "kernel /boot/vmlinuz-yaddayadda root=/dev/sda1" it will boot, but fails later and say "mountall: Plymouth command failed" and then "mountall: disconnected from Plymouth".

[12:34] wail: To see what version you have run uname -p [12:34] 32 [12:35] wail: Then you need the i386 version. [12:36] and need to patch the wifi drive [12:36] or not need [12:37] wail: Patch the wifi drive? What do you mean? [12:40] my friend when i give the uname-p [12:40] i686 [12:42] wail: What does uname -i give? [12:43] i686 [12:44] wail: Am I correct in saying it's a Pentium 2/3 cpu? [12:45] intel® Core™2 Duo CPU T8100 @ 2.10GHz × 2 [12:46] wail: Hmm I see, could you pastebin the output of uname -a? [12:47] you could just do "dpkg-architecture -qDEB_HOST_ARCH" [12:47] Linux ********** 3.5.0-18-generic #29-Ubuntu SMP Fri Oct 19 10:27:31 UTC 2012 i686 i686 i686 GNU/Linux [12:48] but it shows a 32bit install if it's showing i686 [12:48] thanks a lot guys [12:48] tsimpson: That seems to work better :), I already thought it would be 32bit, but wasn't sure. [12:49] lordievader: iirc, it would show x86-64 rather than i686 for 64bit [12:49] of course, I'm ignoring PPC and Mac in general ;) [12:50] tsimpson: Yes, my 64-bit install shows x86_64 for uname -i. === pjoe_dj is now known as pjoe_afk [13:08] Is there any way to translate a time in the future in a particular major city to my local time easily? [13:08] The input of dates should be user friendly, etc. [13:11] someone has a hint, why odt files on doubleclick will extract instead of open even if LibreOffice Writer is set to default? [13:11] thats since last update [13:11] yesterday === cryptfu_ is now known as Guest8403 [13:14] invariant, what do you mean ? Give an example. [13:15] BluesKaj, something like a calendar widget with a drop down box to show multiple configured locations for example, preferably with a way to also run it from the command line. [13:15] BluesKaj, instead of a widget, I prefer an application, however. [13:15] BluesKaj, I don't mind if it is written with GTK+, as long as it works. [13:15] hi! i got a question, i have to confirm the rsa key fingerprint everytime i log into a server, how can i tell ssh to remember it?

[15:06] Hey Reez [15:06] !ask | Reez [15:06] Reez: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience [15:06] just noticed the X-Server started working on my EeePC / 1025 NetBook... [15:06] well: my headphone just stopped to work and I can't hear any soud. Could you help me? [15:07] !patience [15:07] Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com/ http://www.ubuntuforums.org/ or http://www.kubuntuforums.net/ while you wait. [15:07] :} [15:07] Reez: Mute on ? [15:07] Start the mixer app - and check if all channels are not on mute or low level [15:07] Smurphy: No: it is supposed to play music [15:08] Reez: Install pavucontrol and see if PulseAudio is outputting anything. [15:08] Which player you use ? Amarok ? [15:09] Smurphy: actually I listen to music on youtube [15:10] Ah - ok. happens to me from time to time too. It's usually the embedded flash into the browser that's stuck. Stop all browser instances, and restart them. [15:10] Should work after. [15:11] I stopped using youtub to listen to music ... The flash stuff is too unstable. [15:11] Smurphy: I restarted my pc many times but nothing happens [15:11] lordievader: I've just installed pavucontrol [15:12] Reez: Alt+f2 -> pavucontrol to start the program, btw are there other programs that can output sound? [15:13] it looks like it can output sound but I can't hear anything with my headphone [15:15] Reez: Open alsamixer and see if any outputs are muted. [15:16] resident, check the input and output options in pavucontrol , and alsamixer line in might be muted or turned down [15:17] lordievader: on alsamixer nothing is muted [15:17] Did you connect something new to the computer ? Like a HDMI device ??? [15:17] Smurphy: nothing new. It all happened suddenly [15:19] Reez: Could you test the jack by connecting a different set of speakers/headphones? [15:19] does a:"dmesg" output show you something about audio ? [15:20] lordievader: Done but the problem persist [15:22] Smurphy: No, I think not [15:24] Reez: In pavucontrol the youtube player is directed to the correct output? [15:25] lordievader: how can I control that? [15:25] Reez: It not a problem if you have just one sound-card, but it could be a problem with more than one. [15:26] I've got only one sound-card [15:26] Reez: Ok, then that shouldn't be a problem. [15:28] Reez: What happens when you try to play a file with aplay? [15:28] aplay? what's that? [15:30] Reez: Commandline audio player. === jonas_ is now known as Guest27660 === Guest27660 is now known as j0nas_larss0n [15:32] ah ok. Anyway, nothing happens, unfortunatly [15:32] Reez: Does it give a hint? [15:34] No [15:35] Reez: Run the command pulseaudio -k, this kills pulseaudio (should automatically be restarted). [15:36] nothing :( [15:37] That is too bad, I'm sorry that I have to say that I am out of ideas, perhaps BluesKaj knows a solution? [15:38] Do you think it could be an issue with the hardware? [15:38] It could be a hardware issue or the jack itself went bad. [15:39] Headset ??? [15:40] Ah..... I've tried also with a Ubuntu Live-CD but nothing happened the same [15:41] Reez: check the cmos setup. eventuall you have disabled the audio-device in there? [15:41] or the battery is old and lost the settings. [15:41] Know also - that sometimes when connecting a new screen through HDMI - the audio channel can go through the Screen... [15:41] and if the headset is connected to the screen, you eventually have to also configure the audio/volume settings on the screen. [15:41] Smurphy: If the audio device is disabled in the BIOS pulseaudio wouldn't show it. [15:42] lordievader: ack on that. [15:42] Smurphy: battery? whay kind of battery? [15:42] Cmos-setup buffer battery. Usual A CR-32 cell. [15:42] on the motherboard. [15:43] IWait: I've just changed that battery [15:44] Reez, which audio chip is listed in the top left in alsamixer? [15:44] ah. try going through the CMOS setup, and put back the defaults, and check it. [15:44] Realtek ALC888 [15:46] Smurphy: what have I got to do in the CMOS setup? [15:48] Check all relevant things to audio. [15:49] I try === spawn[dead] is now known as spawn571 [15:51] Reez, in the terminal , sudo modprobe snd-hdes-intel , if there is no output from the command the correct kernel module is loaded. [15:52] oh command needs a correction , but he left [15:52] sudo modprobe snd-hda-intel [15:53] why would the device be disabled in the bios if all he did was upgrade [15:55] fooling with cmos jumpers is dangerous, taking the battery out and unplugging from the outlet for 30 mins is much safer === yassin is now known as Shuit [16:03] Smurphy: I've just checked my BIOS and now everything works fine [16:03] thanks a lot [16:03] Reez: What did you change in the BIOS? [16:04] Reez, in the terminal , sudo modprobe snd-hda-intel , if there is no output from the command the correct kernel module is loaded. [16:04] ok , never mind Reez [16:05] lordievader: I've just enabled my front panel [16:05] Reez: Heheh :P [16:06] OK. You're welcome :} [16:07] hrhrhr ... Simplest things usually are the hardest to find :) [16:08] Well Just Another question: I'm on Kubu 12.04 Is it woth to install the 12.10 ? [16:08] kmix was muted , maybe ? [16:08] Can I run a gui program with nohup as long as kdm is still running? [16:09] BluesKaj: No, I've only changed a setting in the BIOS [16:09] Can I run a gui program after logging out with nohup as long as kdm is still running?* [16:09] BluesKaj: If the frontpanel is disabled - nothing comes out - whatever the mixer says ;) [16:09] cjae: Nope [16:10] which setting Reez ...it would be good to know for future reference , unless you enabled a pci soundcard in the bios or some such [16:10] If there is no valid user session running - it won't work. [16:10] cjae: what you can do - is setup a VNC Server on your box - run the app there, and disconnect. [16:10] Smurphy, yes , same as muted [16:10] You'll be able to reconnect to that X-Session after. [16:11] BluesKaj: I enabled front panel [16:11] BluesKaj: It was not muted (We had checked that over). [16:12] enabled the front panel is not a bios option ,I asked what you did in the bios , if anything , Reez [16:12] he enabled the frontpanel. [16:13] On some systems, you can enable/disable the frontpanel through the BIOS CMOS Setup [16:13] BluesKaj: Usually for onboard cards you can enable the frontpanel pin headers in the bios. [16:14] Hi. Is there any way to keep user-defined application positions on taskbar? Like in windows 7? [16:15] braintorch: lock widgets ? [16:16] lordievader, seems like an oversight to have those front connections turned off [16:16] Smurphy: well, it will keep position of taskbar, not position of applications on taskbar, I believe. [16:16] braintorch: ack. [16:16] yep. Like I thought. [16:17] I've never seen them turned of on any pcs I've ever worked on or used [16:18] BluesKaj: He has just replaced the Onboard Bufer battery (CR-32 cell), that's what gave me the idea to check the BIOS and reset the defaults etc. and check the audio settings related stuff [16:18] BluesKaj: I too never understood why the option is there, but it is though. [16:20] Smurphy, I don't get the logic ..turning off those front connections sems like a nasty trick to me ... what oe=rdinary pc user would ever think of having to use the bios to or the cmos to turn them on [16:20] * Smurphy loves these options ... It's like putting a strip on the old ball-mice :) The users take ages to figure out what went wrong :D [16:20] BluesKaj: If it's doable, and the CMOS setup got lost because of buffer battery failure - it is logical to check IMHO [16:21] well, you're not an ordinary pc user either , so it's logical for you ...nasty for many others [16:22] ack [16:22] I'd hate to see my wife have to figure out that front connections for headset were disabled [16:23] hrhrhr ... She would ask you ? as does mine :) [16:23] So I don't do that stuff to her ... === spawn571 is now known as spawn[dead] [16:26] Smurphy, I didn't know from any of my experiences that the front audio connections would deliberately be disabled in the bios, and for what reason . It makes little sense [16:27] BluesKaj: You right... but I had to deal with so many weird things on the computer side - that I learned to not exclude those things... [16:27] anyway , on to other things ...my friend's hdd is failing , and I can't seem to rescuew the user files [16:28] i'm on a last ditch effort , but it seems hopeless at this point [16:30] BluesKaj: already tried to dd them off ??? [16:31] Hi guys... Could anyone direct me to a channel specific to linux kernel networking?
