hateballnoaXess: do you need a static or dhcp IP for the second card?08:15
noaXesshateball: i don't want it ;)08:16
hateballnoaXess: So... what is the problem? Accidentally bringing the device up?08:16
noaXessno.. that the eth1 get's the same ip then eth0, w/o ay configuration.. or i can't find it..08:17
shadeslayernoaXess: #ubuntu-server can help08:18
noaXessthe problem is.. if both get the sae ip, internal, no problem.. but accessing external over a firewall we get routing problems..08:18

hateballnoaXess: at least that should give it a different IP from your DHCP server08:22
noaXesshateball: ok.. i see.. was also my last solution.. hm..08:23
noaXessbut.. even.. it's a VM.. need to say to the VM admin, that he should remove the second card.. cause on a VM two card for this server doesn't make sense08:23
hateballThat would be a better solution08:24
noaXessyes,, anyway. thanks.. always nice to be here.. ;)08:25

smartboyhwdgxe, I think that you should use another tty11:39
dgxeok. that's what i thought, but i remembered my server admin days, when several users were logged in together, and I thought perhaps i could do it in the running gui as well11:40

designbybeck__Greetings BluesKaj, I'm still trying to get the one Kubuntu system to reset to a default(preset desktop) after each reboot. This is the info EagleScreen suggested a while back, But doesn't seem to work: http://www.pasteall.org/3941815:12
designbybeck__Any ideas?.... It starts loading KDE to automatcially login to the physic student login, but fails15:12
designbybeck__it then goes to this error message: http://www.pasteall.org/3941915:14
hateballdesignbybeck__: are you just trying to automatically log in one user account, and have that be in a default state?15:14
lordievader http://www.pasteall.org/3941915:14
designbybeck__yes hateball15:15
hateballdesignbybeck__: This is because you copy it with root perms, you need to chown back to the user account logging in15:15
lordievader... Putty works different from the Konsole..15:15
BluesKajdesignbybeck__, hmm , I just use the "restore previous session" option in system settings>startup&shutdown>session management15:15
=== io is now known as Guest6404
designbybeck__hateball:  where would I do that at? and BluesKaj does that restore a preset desktop as well? I have widgets set and the like15:16
=== Guest6404 is now known as Ossimoro
designbybeck__This is basically going to be a public access for the physics student lounge15:16
hateballdesignbybeck__: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1612978/15:16
hateballdesignbybeck__: this is how we do it here, more or less15:16
designbybeck__Ohhh15:17
hateballdirty, but works well enough15:17
hateballdesignbybeck__: should be -rf on the first ofc15:17
designbybeck__yeah I thought our working copy in that case would be in the /opt/physics_skel15:17
hateballyep, but as I said, the user account needs its perms back15:17
designbybeck__hateball:  so rm -rf /home/public ?15:18
hateballdesignbybeck__: yes. or whatever you call the user account15:18
designbybeck__gotcha, I thought it was because I wasn't root the first time I tired so I just did that, and it didn't like that either15:18
designbybeck__so let me try this15:18
* genii-around slides hateball a coffee15:19
* BluesKaj should stay out of questions about multiple users15:19
* hateball accepts, thanks genii-around!15:19
genii-around:-)15:20
designbybeck__so hateball in these instructions, we had a restore.sh file that rc.local ran, so I can put your line of code for chmod into  the restore.sh ? http://www.pasteall.org/3941815:22
* designbybeck__ trying to wrap my head around this all15:22
hateballdesignbybeck__: not chmod, chown15:22
designbybeck__sorry yes chown15:22
hateballdesignbybeck__: cp -a should achieve this already, assuming that /opt/physics_skel is owned by the same user that uses /home/physics15:23
designbybeck__hmm, no I don't think physics owned that dir15:24
hateballnor should he15:24
hateballsince it's a dir he shouldnt be able to modify15:24
hateballor SHE15:24
designbybeck__kk15:25
hateballdesignbybeck__: I'd put a few seconds delay on the automatic login as well, if you're restoring a large-ish profile :p15:27
designbybeck__how do I do that hateball?15:31
hateballdesignbybeck__: well, in your login manager, where you have that configured right now15:32
hateballBoth KDM and LightDM have GUI ways to configure it15:32
designbybeck__hmm ok15:32
designbybeck__well hateball, i don't get the error messages, It goes to the login screen now instead of automatically logging in the physic student account15:47
hateballdesignbybeck__: well then I dunno, I dont know about your specific setup15:48
designbybeck__thinking I might just give up and let them use the Guest account15:48
designbybeck__when I try to login with the physics student it just goes back to the login screen15:48
hateballdesignbybeck__: but how *I* solve it, is to just do your regular *buntu install, copy -r the user profile to /root, then restore in the fashion above15:48
hateballdesignbybeck__: can you check in a tty that the profile is actually copied? and that the perms are proper?15:49
hateballcp -a... that does not copy recursively does it?15:49
DarthFrogYes, it does.15:50
* hateball usually uses rsync for all the things15:50
designbybeck__hmm15:50

c2taruncan anyone please help me with this problem of KMail? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=211248117:33
sbivolc2tarun: which KMail version are you running?17:40
c2tarunsbivol: 4.8.517:41
c2tarunsbivol: is this some bug, fixed in later version?17:41
sbivolI'm on 4.10... but I don't remember this behaviour in any KMail version, so it's probably related to your configuration17:42
c2tarunsbivol: did you made any change to your folder subscription?17:44
sbivolc2tarun: yes, because I don't like being subscribed to the Spam folder :)17:44
c2tarunsbivol: ok. So I think I should upgrade to 4.10 Let me look for its ppa17:45
sbivolc2tarun: I'd advise againsta that. it hasn't been released yet, and we still haven't identified the cause.17:46
c2tarunsbivol: ohh... :P17:46
c2tarunwell let me share a screenshot with you17:47
c2tarunsbivol: check this out: http://imagebin.org/24555117:48
sbivol*I mean the cause of your issue, not the cause of 4.10 not being released yet17:48
sbivolc2tarun: you have [Gmail] inside Google mail... strange...17:49
c2tarunif I cancel all the subscription the problem is kind of fixed. But I dont think this is the right way. I tried thunderbird and it is working fine17:49
c2tarunsbivol: you dont have that?17:49
sbivolI guess I'll set up my Gmail account in KMail now, to test. please wait a minute17:50
c2tarunsbivol: sure, I am waiting17:51
c2tarunsbivol: also please try deleting any mail. Because when I delete a mail, it goes to Local Trash instead of GMail trash17:52
sbivolc2tarun: yes, it goes to local trash because that folder was the default one when you added the account17:56
c2tarunsbivol: you configured your gmail?17:56
sbivolyes17:57
c2tarunsbivol: are you getting gmail inside Google Mail?17:58
sbivolyes. and mails deleted from gmail go to the local trash17:58
slight__Hello everyone, I would like to install Kubuntu on my laptop so I first tried using live version17:58
sbivolc2tarun: did you do server-side subscription?17:58
c2tarunsbivol: nope, what is it?17:59
slight__but my brightness keys did not work17:59
slight__normally Fn F2 should decrease brightness but it did not. Also tried the power gadget nxt to clock... it also did not change17:59
sbivolc2tarun: the screenshot you provided... oh, it's Local subscription17:59
c2tarunsbivol: yup, I found server side subscription option in accounts>modify. Should I enable it?18:00
sbivolslight__: that depends on your specific laptop. what model is it? maybe it's a known issue...18:00
slight__sbivol: it is samsung np350v5a18:01
slight__but other fn keys work. e.g. volume controls, touchpad disable, wifi18:01
sbivolc2tarun: no, let me test the local subscription first... I have no idea what's the difference between local and server-side subscription, an I'm lazy  to check it on the internet...18:01
c2tarunsbivol: I'll do it meanwhile ;) check the diff on internetl18:02
sbivolslight__: that's because different chips are used for sound and brightness control18:02
c2tarunsbivol: well seems like this is my problem :) http://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=20&t=9550618:03
c2tarunsbivol: seems like my problem is solved: http://imagebin.org/24555418:05
c2tarunlet me test once more.18:05
sbivolc2tarun: I also have gmail inside gmail, so that is probably by design(tm)18:05
sbivolshould be a Gmail feature, since other IMAP servers that I have configured do not have such folder layout18:06
c2tarunsbivol: yup, as mentioned in that forum link, that local subscription overrides server so I think that is reason of multiple copies of mails. I think sharing server-subscription fixed it :)18:06
c2tarunyup possibly18:07
sbivolc2tarun: so you disabled local subscriptions and enabled the server-side ones?18:07
c2tarunsbivol: I just enabled server-side subscription. I think it automatically disabled local18:08
sbivolc2tarun: could you please check the local subscription and see if it's still enabled?18:08
c2tarunsbivol: how can I check that?18:08
noobnubHello. I'm having some problems changing the default applications for file types. KeditFileType  gave me this error first ""/home/username/.local/share/applications/mimeapps.list" not writable.18:10
noobnubPlease contact your system administrator". the owener for the applications directory was set to root, so i changed it my username and fixed the permissions, but now KEditFileType just hangs when I try to change something.18:10
sbivolright-click the top Gmail folder -> Manage local subscriptions. See which folders are checked18:11
sbivolslight__: I can't find anything on the internet regarding linux on that specific laptop. I'm afraid the only way to know for sure is to install Kubuntu on it and test :)18:11
sbivolslight__: oh, and report back ;-)18:12
c2tarunsbivol: yup, all folders are selected and [GMAIL] is gone from there. http://imagebin.org/24555518:13
c2tarunsbivol: thanks for helping :)18:13
sbivolc2tarun: you're welcome18:14
sbivolnoobnub: just to be sure, I suggest logging off from KDE, going to a console with Ctrl+Alt+F1, then executing „sudo chown -R <user>:<user> /home/<user>”18:14
sbivolnoobnub: replace <user> with your username18:15

slight__sbivol: also, is it kubuntu related or kde related?18:22
sbivolc2tarun: on the screenshots, I see that your font rendering is not-as-awesome-as-it-should-be. maybe you'd like to try changing the font hinting settings in System Settings -> Application appearance -> Fonts -> Use antialiasing [Enabled] -> Use subpixel hinting -> Style [Slight or Medium]. Maybe you find one of those settings better-looking on your monitor. (I've translated the settings names to english, so please adjust them to reality)18:24
sbivolslight__: Kubuntu related18:24
slight__slight__: do you suggest installing with WUBI or a seperate installation?18:25
sbivolslight__: it depends. I'd advise installing on a separate partition, but if you don't feel comfortable modifying your partitions, then Wubi is also a good option18:27

ludwig_Hi guys. I have a very bad issue. My networking keeps disconnecting. in /var/log messages I get ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): wlan0: link is not ready for wlan0 and eth020:28
ludwig_do you have any idea what's going on? using kernel 3.2.620:29
ludwig_11.04 kubuntu20:29
ludwig_driver: tg320:35
sbivolludwig_: being WLAN, you can suspect anything. even that your neighbour tries to hijack your connection to sniff some useful packets20:37
ludwig_sbivol: both for eth020:37
ludwig_not just wlan.. and checked everything.20:37
sbivolludwig_: would you have any reason to suspect your router?20:37
ludwig_sbivol: no, because it does the same in 3 different networks20:38
ludwig_it's either hardware malfunction / core kernel issue / incompat20:38
ludwig_but i'm open to suggestions20:38
sbivolI see... that's weird. a bad wireless driver I can understand, but a broken driver for the wired card... that's highly unlikely.20:40
ludwig_sbivol: so hardware issue?20:44
sbivolludwig_: can you find out your WLAN and LAN card models? maybe the internet knows something about your issue already20:48
ludwig_searched but nothing really20:48
sbivolludwig_: you could try Kubuntu 13.04 (any daily image) from a usb stick and see if the problems persist. ftp://cdimage.ubuntu.com/cdimage/kubuntu/daily-live/current/21:03
ludwig__my KDE effects also crash with: fatal server error failed to submit batchbuffer :invalid argument21:11
sbivolludwig__: what hardware do you have?21:14
ludwig__how can I check that?21:15
ludwig__GA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 4 Series Chipset Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 07)21:15
ludwig__i don't know any other way to check it21:16
sbivolludwig__: oh, that answers my question :) so you have a regular laptop with common hardware. at this point, I'd suggest doing a complete memory test. choose Memtest86+ from the Grub menu, before booting in Kubuntu21:18
ludwig__sbivol: how would that help? I rememeber i did it some time ago and found nothing21:21
sbivolludwig__: the test will take a while, but you'll know for sure whether your memory is ok or not. bad memory causes lots of issues and is relatively hard to detect unless you test your memory.21:23
ludwig__sbivol: did the test and found nothing. was done recently and after the issues (both eth0/wlan0 and graphics)21:25
sbivolludwig__: at this point, I'm out of ideas. try a daily image, maybe the newer drivers are better.21:27
sbivolludwig__: to be clear – I suggest you try a live image of 13.04, not to install it.21:28
ludwig__ok. ty21:28
