| bjrohan | SIR_Taco: that helps a bit, I got Kuser running, found my misspelled name, but I don't see where to change the login name, only the home dir | 01:42 |
| bjrohan | SIR_Taco: add a new user? | 01:43 |
| bjrohan | I have nothing in my home dir yet | 01:43 |
| bjrohan | it is a fresh install | 01:43 |

| bjrohan | SIR_Taco: how does one get into a recovery console in Kubunte, so I can change my username | 02:11 |
| bjrohan | SIR_Taco: this is done a boot time, then select a CLI | 02:13 |
| SIR_Taco | bjrohan, should be able to select it from the grub menu. Or, if you don't have a grub menu (ie, just Kubuntu installed) hold down the shift key when booting | 02:22 |
| bjrohan | I have the GRUB menu, I go into recovery, I then drop out to a shell prompt but when I type: usermod -l newname -m -d /home/newname oldname | 02:22 |
| bjrohan | it says it can't get a lock on /etc/password | 02:23 |
| bjrohan | The command was from the link you sent :-) | 02:23 |
| SIR_Taco | bjrohan, and instead of 'newname' you used the new user name, and instead of 'oldname' you used the old user name? | 02:27 |
| bjrohan | yes :-) | 02:28 |
| SIR_Taco | bjrohan, add "sudo" (without the quotes) to the beginning of that command | 02:30 |
| bjrohan | I tried that as well | 02:30 |
| SIR_Taco | bjrohan, when given the options, did you drop to shell, or root shell? | 02:30 |
| bjrohan | root shell my CL says root@bjrohan-Laptop# | 02:31 |
| SIR_Taco | hmm | 02:31 |
| bjrohan | it is odd, I tried sudo usermod -l bjrohan bjrhan | 02:32 |
| bjrohan | still said couldn't get /etc/password lock | 02:33 |
| SIR_Taco | bjrohan, what about usermod -l newuser -m olduser | 02:35 |
| === dniMretsaM_away is now known as dniMretsaM | ||
| bjrohan | I messed something up. Now I can log in | 02:42 |
| bjrohan | I enter my password, screen goes blank, and then back to login screen | 02:43 |

| === root is now known as Guest87209 | ||
| bjrohan | As it is a fresh install, I can just create a new user all together | 02:45 |
| === Guest87209 is now known as Xpl1cIT | ||
| bjrohan | grrr | 02:48 |
| bjrohan | SIR_Taco: When I do you line: usermod -l newuser -m olduser it says bjrhan does not exist, that is exactly my old name, I know it is b/c the dir is /home/bjrhan | 02:53 |

| Guest74242 | hi all. asking something. my java program launches a website (which has java applet) inside firefox. essentially, what it does is Runtime.getRuntime.exec("firefox www.mywebsitewithappletinside.com"). my firefox can open the page, but it can NOT render the applet. strangely, when i run "firefox www.mywebsitewithappletinside.com" at konsole, the page can be opened correctly, and the applet is rendered well. i use oracle jre 6.38 | 06:44 |

I am having a hard time with Konqueror not System Settings defaults for .xpfs files, which i found a work around, but i would just like Konqueror to not steal the playlist files. and Karbon looks like it was hit with a chinese puzzle board made for a cell phone screen.

| bjrohan_ | I just purchased a new laptop and installed Kubuntu 12.10. The laptop has a microphone, but I can not get it to work, can anyone lend a hand? | 16:29 |
| OerHeks | bjrohan_, in #ubuntu you say you installed ubuntu LoLz | 16:34 |
| bjrohan_ | yes, b/c they are picky over there. My understanding is that the base is the same | 16:35 |
| bjrohan_ | if I say I installed kubuntu in ubuntu channel they don't respond | 16:35 |
| bazhang | so which is it | 16:36 |
| bjrohan_ | ? | 16:37 |
| bjrohan_ | me? | 16:37 |
| bjrohan_ | It is Kubuntu | 16:37 |
| bazhang | kubuntu or ubuntu | 16:37 |
| bazhang | is anything muted in alsamixer | 16:37 |
| bjrohan_ | I installed gnome alsa mixer and from what I can tell, nothing is muted | 16:39 |
| bjrohan_ | although I messed something up, as now in playing with te settings, I don't get any audio out :-( | 16:39 |
| shadeslayer | for starters check kmix | 16:40 |
| bjrohan_ | I got it back. interesting I have like 6 different output options (hp with beates audio) | 16:40 |
| bjrohan_ | Kmix won't start for some reason | 16:41 |
| bjrohan_ | I can start it from the laucher, the icon spins around in the taskbar, then nothing appears | 16:41 |
| bjrohan_ | I have gnome alsa and pulse audio controls up | 16:42 |
| bjrohan_ | The mic works, I have NO idea how | 16:43 |
| bjrohan_ | too many options for ths noob | 16:43 |
| OerHeks | maybe this works for you > http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1911822 | 16:44 |
| bjrohan_ | OerHeks: That did help, yesterday only 2 of my 5 speakers worked adding options snd-hda-intel model=ref to alsa config file got all speakers working | 16:46 |
| bjrohan_ | Mic does now work, not sure what settings I changed, I will play and learn after my webinar :-). thank you all for the insight to get me this far! | 16:46 |
| OerHeks | have fun | 16:48 |
| bjrohan_ | Yes, Linux is a boatload o fun for sure. I do enjoy it | 16:49 |
