[00:07] hello world :D [00:07] Hey ovidiu-florin, how are you? [00:08] I'm having a little trouble with a dell laptop touchpad. [00:08] hey lordievader [00:08] I'm tired but feeling great [00:08] I've learned Qmake, Autotools, and now I'm learning CMake [00:09] I've learned some of how KDE works, fixed a Jovie bug... [00:09] slowly but getting there [00:09] Sounds good :) === Octopedal is now known as Laserfeet [02:39] The other day there was an update to Muon..ever since then I can't get Muon Update Manager to install any updates. It lists them but won't actually install them. Does anyone know what I should do to fix it? [02:50] you can install the ubuntu software center nova_ and you might be able to update it that way [02:50] look in muon software center nova_ [02:52] install it and apt-get update then might work [02:52] thanks. I'm really looking to fix muon rather than install an alternative though. I'm tempted to just reinstall it but I don't know if that would be problematic. [02:52] im able to aupdate with apt in a terminal for now [02:53] hang on i know some peps in another irc server that might have the answer nova_ [02:53] awesome ty [02:53] I thought I should ask here because it did seem to happen after a recent update to muon programs [02:55] makes sence [02:55] hang on [02:55] kk [02:56] hmmm no answer [03:00] thanks for trying [03:00] sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" [03:00] might work thoe [03:01] yeah i can install updates using the terminal no problem...its jsut muon that can't seem to install them now..it looks like it is..then it doesn't. [03:01] im tempted to remove and reinstall muon. [03:02] i dont know if that would take out apt though [03:02] that sounds dangerous nova_ [03:05] heh i would just reinstall the whole os befor i did that [03:05] woah...that seems pretty drastic [03:05] id back stuff first [03:06] backup* [03:07] yeah id partition the hdd , backup everything i wanted and reinstall [03:08] but thats prob what you need [03:08] not i meen [03:08] that prob not [03:09] muon is part of the KDE package isnt it? [03:09] yes it is [03:09] still debian based though [03:16] i removed and reinstalled muon with apt..ill have to wait for an update to become available to see if it helped [03:16] nothing terrible happened though [03:17] does muon have a "base"? [03:17] ok good [03:17] I never heard of it prior to going to KDE a few weeks ago. I always wondered if it was forked off of something else. [03:17] yeah debian roasted [03:17] Muon is in Debian?? [03:17] were all piggybacking off debian [03:17] well, yeah, but that's the *buntu base. [03:18] I meant Muon Package Manager/Muon Software Center. [03:18] yes [03:18] it kinda has tobe [03:19] but again, I'm talking about MUON alone. [03:19] Not Ubuntu, Kubuntu, etc. [03:19] look anything with apt is debian basicaly [03:19] we are clearly not on the same page. [03:20] at all. [03:20] ok [03:20] sorry [03:20] all good :) [03:20] :) [03:22] sound like something i should do some research on [03:26] heh google reader is dead [03:27] http://pinboard.in/u:guardiantech/b:a7383bba3acf [03:42] roasted: heres the history of muon from the author http://jontheechidna.wordpress.com/2010/07/05/introducing-qapt-and-the-muon-package-manager/ [03:43] nice nova_ [03:44] have to say its the only thing ive ever not been able to find a wikipedia page about [03:44] me niether [03:44] I think it's only as old as about 2010 though [03:45] neither* [03:49] http://ubuntu.5.n6.nabble.com/DistUpgradeFetcherKDE-py-and-muon-td5013293.html === MrSmith is now known as Guest30093 === Zeratul is now known as Guest92775 [06:46] hi. i'm receiving thos message: /tmp/(...):no space left on device. [06:47] this is the output of df -H: overflow 1.1M 1.1M 0 100% /tmp [06:51] seems very odd to have a 1.1MB /tmp [06:52] yes [06:53] http://paste.ubuntu.com/5618542/ [06:57] Anubis: maybe it has to do with your root being (near) full? [07:01] tsimpson: i think you are right. [07:01] seems that if you have less than 1000KB on /, then you get an tmpfs on /tmp [07:27] tsimpson: thank you. i moved some data from / partition and now it's working [07:27] good to hear [07:27] Hello there, In the downloads page of firefox when I click on the installed filed in order I get a message telling to choose which program should run this file, Usually an mp3 file will be played by the media player automatically. [07:29] Hi there, I updated from Quantal to Raring and I can't log into KDE anmyore. It just crashes xserver [07:44] test, but you are able to log into ubuntu? [07:44] valorie: I don't have gnome installed [07:45] so you are reporting via another computer [07:45] just trying to clarify is all [07:45] yes, I do [07:46] Syria: depends; you may lack the necessary codec [07:46] valorie: My system is up to date. [07:46] oops, I mean: you can set that in your FF settings [07:46] valorie: I mean that I always install the latest updates. [07:46] Syria: mp3 is a proprietary codec that doesn't come included by default [07:47] sorry, was responding to a question you didn't ask [07:47] Syria: do you have "kubuntu-restricted-extras" installed? [07:47] that usually pulls in all necessary codecs [07:48] they can't be included be default because of some proprietary laws [07:48] (stupid ones IMO....._ [07:48] ) [07:48] valorie: Mp3 files are just an example, I get the same problem with any file that I try to launch, doc files for example. [07:48] copyright law... nor prorietary laws :) [07:49] Yes kubuntu-restricted-extras are installed anyway. [07:49] well, once you set that, you can click "always use this for this type of file" [07:49] and it won't ask you again [07:49] but yes, I've always found that annoying in FF [07:49] it's been doing that for years, even in Windows [07:50] back in the Dark Ages when I used win [07:50] valorie: The problem is that all types of files will be launched in the program that I have choosen, In my case Genview. [07:50] as I said, you can set that in advance then [07:51] How can I do this ? [07:52] Edit > Preferences [07:54] valorie: In the application tab right? But I don't see all the formats that I usually download, DEB packages for example. [07:54] how would FF do anything with Deb packages? [07:54] beyond putting them in the folder you designate [07:55] valorie: Launch it using the package installer? Also I can't find PDF or DOC formats [07:57] well, if you are loading FF modules, that should be handled elsewhere, through their own browser for add-ons, etc. [07:57] hmm, maybe FF finally has a built-in pdf reader [07:57] dunno [07:57] I'm going more and more to chromium these days [07:58] while continuing to try out Konqueror and Rekonq of course [07:58] :-) [07:58] Using chrome would solve the problem, But I am more comfortable with FF dunno why. [07:58] I was with ya until recently [07:59] and I've used it as my primary browser since browsers began [07:59] which seems forever ago [07:59] <--- old === fale_ is now known as fale === yofel_ is now known as yofel === jacky- is now known as jacky [08:46] Good morning === christian is now known as Guest68985 === BTCOxygen|1 is now known as BTCOxygen [10:04] weird, one of the packages from the kernel failed to install === erry_ is now known as erry === bazhang_ is now known as bazhang [11:00] hi all [11:00] Hello Linusnewb, how are you? [11:01] fine thanks lordievader and you [11:01] Linusnewb: Doing good, trying to solve a mysql+bash problem. [11:01] I have a little prob with my internet connection [11:03] Linusnewb: Could you give some details? Perhaps we can help ;) [11:04] I have test some dns servers and changed /etc resolv.conf then /etc/dhcp/dhclient.conf /etc/dhcp3/dhcclient.conf the lst hast not aconf fie so I copied :D [11:05] now my internet connection is not working anymore [11:05] Linusnewb: Most of those files are dynamically generated, why don't you use the network manager? [11:06] I have googled and there was some documantation about resolv.conf and dhcclient [11:07] I have wrote the orginal back but network manager says it's connected but still it is not [11:07] how can I fix this yet [11:08] Linusnewb: Do you get a reply if you run the command "nslookup google.com"? [11:10] I don't know I'm here yet via livecd online [11:10] Linusnewb: And you are connected using only DHCP? [11:10] is a laptop and I don't have a 2nd OS on it [11:11] I am connected with network-manager but don't know how [11:15] Linusnewb: Hmm, if you didn't change anything it's DHCP. So why do you want/need to change those settings? [11:16] I have wrote in google to change dns server cause some sites in my country is under restrict [11:17] Linusnewb: Then you should change the dns settings in the network manager. [11:17] and on google I have read that networkmanager don't use dns server as defalt only as second server [11:18] Linusnewb: I don't know where you read that, but the network manager works fine for dns-overrides. [11:18] so I have set it as first but I have wrote the same ans take # that as argument [11:18] Linusnewb: Do you know how to change the dns in the network manager? [11:19] on gui yes [11:19] mange connections [11:22] what can I do now to get an internet connection on my system on hd? [11:24] Linusnewb: In this screenshot you change the Method to 'Automatic (DHCP) addresses only' and then you fill in your dns settings: http://imagebin.org/250494 === pjoe_afk is now known as pjoe [11:26] lordievader it is on automatic dhcp on gui I've seen internet connection but is still not working Im not be able to connect google or e-mails or something else [11:29] Linusnewb: There is a difference between 'Automatic (DHCP)' and 'Automatic (DHCP) addresses only', the second allow you to specify your own dns. [11:31] hmm ok I taste it do you have another tip for me yet any console essages what I can look for? [11:33] Linusnewb: The nslookup is quite usefull for dns problems. [11:36] ok thanks but I'm still thinking is not a dns prob maybe a bug cause I have changed resolv.conf and dhcclient.conf and destroy any automatic on it [11:38] Linusnewb: I told you (the file also tells you), to not edit the resolv.conf file because it will be generated automatically. This is not a bug. [11:42] ok I restart and test it I'll be back in 5 minutes === pjoe is now known as pjoe_afk === pjoe_afk is now known as pjoe [12:22] hi Ihave the same problem [12:22] I have a problem /home/Sorush/bin/rm: Syntax error: "(" unexpected [12:24] Sorush: What are you trying to do exatly?

[12:56] give some details [12:57] My Network manager tells I'm coccencted... but is no internet connection [12:57] connected.. [12:58] Linusnewb, and what kind of connection , ethernet cable or wifi ? [12:58] wifi [12:59] it has work before I have changed /etc/resolv.conf and /etc/dhcp/dhclient.conf [13:00] bt the I put my old script back but is not work anymore [13:00] Linusnewb: Did you change the dns settings in the way I told you? [13:01] yes lordievader [13:01] Linusnewb, run this in the konsole , sudo ifconfig wlan0 up ,then this , sudo iwlist wlan0 scan|grep -i essid [13:02] Linusnewb: And that didn't work?

[13:05] Linusnewb,ok , but the old script should go in , /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/base, if you're running 12.10 , it writes to /etc/resolv.conf now [13:06] Sorush: Seems the libksieveui4 is corrupted, time to clean the cache.

Try "sudo rm /var/cache/apt/archives/*" and see if apt-get works after that.

Google doesn't help either... :( [13:28] at least he didn't do a !list , like a lot of Italian users do [13:28] yep BluesKaj for a lot of people here irc means filesharing .___. [13:28] lordievader: you mean reinstalling kubuntu [13:28] they think this is a file sharing server [13:29] Italians love to share files :D [13:29] Vito: Mafia? [13:29] Sorush: Most unfortunately, yes. [13:29] yeah , but why do they think 'buntu id file sharing , Vito ? [13:30] is [13:30] Sorush: I hardly believe torrent is a mafia ;) [13:30] lordievader: shoot [13:30] BluesKaj: actually I see many users popping-up in #wikipedia-it and many other Wikimedia-related channels I manage [13:30] I think thats off topic.. I just trolled sorry.. yes I agree [13:30] I think they simply join random irc channels [13:31] though some of the older Italian irc platforms are really full of sharing bots [13:31] what can I do I don't want to reinsatll kubuntu from scratch [13:31] while I never saw any of them here on freenode [13:31] Sorush: Hold on, could it be a pre-inst script that is faulty. Can you install other packages? [13:32] Vito: This topic is more suited for #kubuntu-offtopic. [13:32] Sorush: It might be that you first have to remove the libksieveui4 package. [13:32] it's already gone lordievader [13:42] hi [13:42] lordievader: I have removed it with dpkg and now apt-get install -f works [13:43] Sorush: Hmm, than it it probably an error with the package. === pjoe is now known as pjoe_afk [14:37] всем привет [14:38] !ru | phoenix_ [14:38] phoenix_: Пожалуйста наберите /join #ubuntu-ru для получения помощи на русском языке. | Pozhalujsta naberite /join #ubuntu-ru dlya polucheniya pomoshi na russkom yazyke.

I've tried a sudo dpkg --configure -a, but it stays stuck at the same process. Anyone have any suggestions? I don't want to leave this box in an unbootable state === apie is now known as apie1 [16:38] xixor: It's unlikely that it'll be unbootable. You should be able to select an older kernel to boot at the GRUB screen. === ubuntu is now known as Guest20950 [16:41] xixor: if you have a static sized /boot check to make sure there is enough space to process new kernels. If you have several older kernels stilled installed, you can free up space by deleting them (via Synaptic).... just leave the one kernel installed previously and the one that you are currently using. [16:41] xixor: 'sudo update-initramfs -u -v' might help you see where it's getting stuck, too. [16:45] Hey Guys! I upgraded to 13.04 a few months ago and my wifi hasn't been working since then. is this a known problem? My friend said he had to do something to get it working but I can't figure it out [16:45] I can see wireless networks but it won't connect to anything [16:46] Criten: Support for 13.04 is in #ubuntu+1 === Guest61073 is now known as HollowMan [16:46] Thanks DarthFrog [16:46] amingv: sudo update-initramfs -u -v seemed to run fine [16:47] mandoguit: I'm not sure if my /boot is a static size or not. df -h doesn't suggest that I have a separate /boot partition [16:47] my kubuntu constantly freezes :\ dont know what to do [16:47] xixor: Then you should be OK. Does the correct initrd.img file exist in /boot for the new kernel? [16:47] xixor: then is your root partition full? [16:48] HollowMan: Does it run OK from LiveCD? [16:48] xixor: doesn't sound like the /boot size is the problem then [16:48] DarthFrog: yes, I think the initrd image is there, root has lots of space [16:48] xixor: Then /boot has lots of space. [16:49] xixor: Sounds like you're good to go. [16:49] DarthFrog: no, I installed it from a USB stick, and it froze during the installation [16:49] yeah... strange. It looks like running update-initramfs on it's own outside of the dpkg-configure process was what got it working [16:49] HollowMan: Did you verify that your boot image installed correctly on the USB stick? [16:49] DarthFrog: i tried to reinstall it, and it went fine, but now it keeps freezing for now reason [16:50] *no reason [16:50] HollowMan: What video card do you have? [16:50] DarthFrog: yes, I checked the md5sum of the iso file, and then I used unetbootin [16:50] DarthFrog: nVidia GT6600 [16:50] DarthFrog, mandoguit, amingv : thanks for the help, seems to be cleared up [16:51] HollowMan: Which video drivers are you using? [16:51] xixor: good to hear :) [16:51] DarthFrog: the default ones from the installation [16:52] HollowMan: Those will be the nouveau drivers. You could try installing the proprietary nvidia drivers or reverting to VESA, to see if that resolves the issue. [16:52] DarthFrog: i will try that, thanks for your help [16:52] xixor: cool :) [16:53] HollowMan: "sudo jockey-kde" will help you with the nvidia driver installation. Don't forget to run nvidia-xconfig after installation before rebooting. [17:15] DarthFrog: now i can't even log in, it freezes at the inicial screen, so I tried to reinstall kubuntu and it freezes in the middle of the installation process [17:15] :s === murthy_ is now known as murthy [17:16] hello everyone [17:25] HollowMan: You've got a hardware issue, it sounds like. [17:26] DarthFrog: thanks anyway [17:33] Good luck. [17:36] DarthFrog: now I'm running the Live USB and it seems fine, but I dont know why it freezes during the install, any gess? [17:37] HollowMan: Sorry, no, nothing other than I suspect a hardwarre problem. [17:37] DarthFrog: ok, I wil try to reinstall it one more time, hope this time works [17:38] HollowMan: Check that everthing is properly seated and connected in your machine. [17:38] DarthFrog: by the way, how can I know wich driver is currently in use for each componet? [17:40] use the "lsmod" command. You might want to pipe it through "more", though: i.e. "lsmod | more" [17:58] fwiw, if you use less instead of more you can pageup/pagedown [18:01] mandoguit: Less is an excellent pager. It's the one I usually use.

[21:51] i need to let him to send me a screenshot [21:51] lordievader, ok [21:54] is the semi-loaded kde, in the installation process, disable to load other apps? [21:55] krabador: I'm sorry what do you mean? Perhaps it is an idea to direct your friend to this irc-channel. [21:57] lordievader, it's completely non english... [22:04] lordievader: he is asking if the current install session blocks other apps from running [22:07] Hmm I see. What option did you choose in the first menu, "Try Kubuntu" or "Install Kubuntu", krabador? [22:07] lordievader, yes, i told him to restart, and to run with "try" [22:09] krabador: There you should be able to start rekonq, I'm not sure if this is possible from the Install Kubuntu too, it should be since the release notes open in rekonq... Probably the procedure to open rekonq changes. [22:15] lordievader, yes, it's probably impossible [22:15] lordievader, thanx for the helpo [22:15] *help [22:16] krabador: What is impossible? [22:17] lordievader, to load reconq from installation process, not in "try" [22:18] krabador: I beg to differ. The release notes are opened in rekonq. Probably if you go to the tty set your screen variable and then launch rekonq it will work too. [22:34] krabador: are you there> [22:35] murthy, yes, tell me all [22:36] krabador: press ctrl+alt+f1, the screen will change to a tty there try running "DISPLAY=:0 rekonq" [22:37] murthy, great [22:37] krabador: to switch back press ctrl+alt+f7, if that doesn't work try ctrl+alt+f8 [22:39] murthy, yes i know tty stuff, but i don't know about "DISPLAY=:0 rekonq" [22:39] great [22:39] worked? === murthy is now known as murthy_
