c2tarunI tried to install network-manager-gnome, that installed gnome's network manager. I put that in startup but now I am getting two network managers, is there any way to stop KDE's network manager from starting up. I checked in autostart, its not there03:19
=== DouglasK is now known as DouglasKAway
valoriec2tarun: maybe search for network-manager in muon or apt-cache search and see what's installed?03:21
valorieperhaps uninstall the KDE network manager03:21
valoriei know that when I had some trouble and was using wicd, I had to uninstall the other03:21
c2tarunvalorie: running apt-get remove network-manager is also removing gnome's network manager03:22
valorieright03:23
valorieso you want to see all of what's installed03:23
c2tarunI wan't to use only gnome's network manager,03:23
valorieunderstood03:23
valorieso you may have to search for and uninstall the other one03:24
c2tarunone quick question: the NM icon I am seeing in tray is it just icon or it means KDE's NM?03:24
valoriethat I don't know03:24
valoriemine only shows if there is a problem03:24
c2tarunI think removing plasma-widget-networkmanagement did the job, let me reboot and try BRB03:27
valoriethat's probably it indeed03:28
=== jacob_ is now known as Guest66050
c2tarunvalorie: nope not worked, removing plasma-widget-networkmanagement, kind of screwed everything, no LAN no wi-fi :P I installed network-manager from deb in /var/cache/apt/archives and then LAN worked, then back to plasma-widget**thingy03:40

lordievaderGood evening.20:23
rottingdeadHello guys/gals, I'm having issues with Kubuntu Live Disc, I think it's possibly my system here, but not sure, on a relatives, it works fine, but on mine is freezes up..20:57
finedeltempoanalisi20:57
OpenSorceaway, of course I tried a blank password, I wouldn't be here is it was something simple. I tried sudo passwd kubuntu too which fails. I'm sort of shocked that THIS is what kubuntu puts out there for brand new users to try...20:58
rottingdeadOpenSorce: As for the issue I'm having, sound familiar does it?20:58
OpenSorcerottingdead, can you give some info about your system?20:59
rottingdeadOpenSorce: Hmm, well, right now I'm in my Gentoo, but some stuff is failing to compile, due to bugged E-Builds, and been trying to get PlayOnLinux, what my system displays probably won't help you here, I can't even log into KDE to show ya, =/.21:00
OpenSorceNo no that's fine, what type machine, processor, amount of memory?21:01
rottingdeadOpenSorce: It loads up, but when I click KMenu, all it does is lag or freeze..21:01
rottingdeadOpenSorce: 8 GiB RAM, Intel Dual Core CPU E5400 @ 2.70 Ghz, nVidia GeForce GTS 450 GDDR5 1 Gigabyte Video Card, 1 TB Hard DRive.21:02
rottingdeadOpenSorce: Both DVD Version, and USB HDD do the same thing, sometimes they don't boot up at all..21:03
OpenSorcerottingdead,  Excellent, thanks... now my first suspect is the video card. Sometime X will try to force one driver when it needs another...21:03
rottingdeadOpenSorce: =/..  Erm, I hope this video card isn't the culprit.21:04
rottingdeadOpenSorce: Ran my Gentoo Live Disc, and ran the memtest86 App, all 8 GiB RAM is okay.21:04
OpenSorcerottingdead, not the card itself... the driver that X is trying to load... we need to look at logs for that really21:04
rottingdeadOpenSorce: Eeeeeeeeak, and because of my problem, I can't show, =(.21:05
rottingdeadOpenSorce: I try to Ctrl + Alt + F1 to get to TTY, and right as I do that, it freezes up.21:05
OpenSorcerottingdead, now... I want you to try a bit of research first... search the internet  for "Kubuntu freeze  nVidia GeForce GTS 450"21:05
OpenSorcerottingdead, chances are you are not the first victim... see what you can find21:06
rottingdeadOpenSorce: I did find something, "Nouveau" could be the issue..21:08
rottingdeadOpenSorce: I'm pretty sure it's what ALL Live Discs use on nvidia Cars.21:08
rottingdeadcards*21:08
rottingdeadOpenSorce: I can't even get Kubuntu to run long enough, heh..  KMenu doesn't load so I can't disable Desktop Effects.21:09
OpenSorceDo any of you actual Kubuntu USERS care to chime in on rottingdead's issue?21:11
rottingdeadOpenSorce: It does appear to be a Nouveau issue, I've found several pages on Google about it.21:13
rottingdeadOpenSorce: Now, The installer itself, without clicking "Try Kubuntu" works fine, but after restarting, it'll freeze up, and I'm not sure what the nVidia Drivers package is in Kubuntu.21:13
OpenSorcerottingdead, looks like it's you... me and 266 idlers... let me dig around a sec and see what I can come up with21:13
rottingdeadOpenSorce: I'm pretty sure, judging from these results, it's Nouveau causing the problem.21:14
OerHeks!nomodeset | rottingdead21:14
ubotturottingdead: A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter21:14
OpenSorceOh look, we got someone's attention21:15
rottingdeadubottu: OerHeks Thanks, I probaby add that to the Boot Options when I first load the Disc.21:15
ubotturottingdead: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :)21:15
OpenSorceOerHeks, I don't suppose ubottu has anything in that little black bag for my issue?21:16
OerHeksoke, see that url, do it again tru grub2, and try installing prop drivers21:16
rottingdeadHeheh, sorry, I forgotten how easy Kubuntu Developers make things, I'm used to Command Line.21:17
OpenSorceKubuntu live USB KDM is asking for a password. whoami at terminal says the account name is kubuntu anyone know what the password would be?21:17
rottingdeadAnyway, I'll try this !nomodeset and see if this helps, =).21:17
OpenSorcerottingdead, good luck!21:17
rottingdeadOpenSorce: Password is auto-generated by the way.21:17
rottingdeadOpenSorce: See if you can access a TTY, and run sudo passwd21:18
rottingdeadOpenSorce: Ctrl + Alt + F1 for instance.21:18
rottingdeadOpenSorce: You shouldn't have to input a password on a Live Disc..21:18
OpenSorcerottingdead, yes... but an option to "Try Kubuntu" without auto-logging a user in? Why would this exist? I did that, throws an error21:18
OerHeksOpenSorce, password would be blank, just hit enter?21:19
rottingdeadOpenSorce: Good question, I don't know, heh.21:19
rottingdeadOpenSorce: Anyway, I'll boot up Kubuntu, set that !nomodeset, if it works, I'll be a little while before I get back into irssi..21:20
OpenSorceOerHeks, you would think so... oh wait... when I do that it looks like KDM just resets itself... okay different issue. My fault for multi-tasking too much :-P21:20
rottingdeadBrb shortly.21:20

OpenSorcerottingdead, kewl, glad to hear it :-)21:25
rottingdeadOops, lmfao, didn't mean to trigger that.21:25
rottingdeadubottu: !kernel21:26
ubottuThe core of Ubuntu is the Linux kernel: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel - You shouldn't have to compile your own, and if you need to troubleshoot issues, you can try a !Mainline kernel instead, but if you insist, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile (see also !Stages)21:26
rottingdeadAnybody still out there?21:27
Whiskey`Wonkaanyone know why apt-get says there are upgradable packages but muon does not?21:28
rottingdead!kernel version21:28
finedeltempoanalisi21:28
dmattWhiskey`Wonka: run "sudo apt-get update" in konsole and maybe one of them will change its opinion :)21:30
dmattotherwise report bug21:30
OerHeksnice, rottingdead21:31
Whiskey`Wonkawouldnt a apt-get update be the same as a muon check for updates ?21:31
OerHeksdo not use apt-get and muon together, close terminal first before running muon21:32
OerHeksthere is only one instance allowed to use the repo's21:32
rottingdeadOerHeks: Thanks again for your response, =).21:32
rottingdeadOerHeks: It's been a while since I've used Kubuntu, I've forgotten how easy Kubuntu Developers made this OS, heheh.21:33
rottingdeadOerHeks: I'm a Gentoo person, but because of a few issues, I'm swapping back, and with Gentoo, it's ALL MANUAL labor, heh.21:33
Whiskey`WonkaOerHeks: right they can not be active at the same time, i know that21:33
dmattWhiskey`Wonka: it is using the same process, but results go to different application21:33
dmattWhiskey`Wonka: have you tried it? what is the result?21:35
Whiskey`Wonkayes i did it, it sucked down the repos and exited cleanly21:37
Whiskey`Wonkano idea what happened cause it has not installed anything21:37
Whiskey`Wonkait showed this  * Documentation:  https://help.ubuntu.com/ 76 packages can be updated. 47 updates are security updates.21:37
Whiskey`Wonkaafter installing java21:38
Whiskey`Wonkabut now it doesnt21:38
dmattWhiskey`Wonka: now run muo0n update manager21:38
dmattit is not installing, command only refreshes info from repository21:38
Whiskey`WonkaI did, it shows nothing when do filter upgradable21:39
Whiskey`Wonkafilter status upgradable21:39
dmattWhiskey`Wonka: press check for updates button21:40
Whiskey`Wonkadid21:40
dmattbtw, Muon and Muon update manager are two separate application21:41
Whiskey`Wonkayes i know21:41
Whiskey`Wonkaboth agree21:41
dmattno updates?21:42
Whiskey`Wonka"software uptodate -- changed one second ago"21:42
Whiskey`Wonkaer checked21:42
Whiskey`Wonkaarg, now i gotta go to work21:42
Whiskey`Wonkasomething isnt quite right, no idea what21:43
dmattWhiskey`Wonka: on possibility is that apt-get somhow uses different setting/repos than muon21:44
dmattdid you install ppa, set to keep certain versions of packages or any other advanced package manipulation?21:45
dmattor maybe there is bug in new muon...21:46
dmattWhiskey`Wonka: just upgrade through apt-get and see if there is something unusual21:47
