| ovidiu-florin | yes | 12:28 |
| ovidiu-florin | thank you | 12:28 |
| simion314 | ovidiu-florin: are you good with apt-get? I broken it | 12:28 |
| simion314 | http://pastebin.com/nvNtFfna | 12:28 |
| ovidiu-florin | try running sudo apt-get autoclean | 12:32 |
| ovidiu-florin | first to clean it all | 12:32 |
| simion314 | BluesKaj: hi, any idea how to fix this apt-get error http://pastebin.com/nvNtFfna | 12:45 |
| BluesKaj | simion314, try sudo dpkg --configure -a then the -f install command | 12:48 |
| simion314 | BluesKaj: is there a way to force remove a package? | 12:49 |
| BluesKaj | yes there is , but it's dangerous if you're not careful ...best to wait til the fixes come down to the repos ..on 13.04 ? | 12:51 |
| simion314 | BluesKaj: no, i am on LTS, i tried the ubuntu sdk , and that broke apt-get | 12:53 |
| BluesKaj | you remove the ppa | 12:53 |
| simion314 | i want to remove it, so I can do my updates | 12:53 |
| BluesKaj | also remove qmlviewer , it seems to be the problem | 12:53 |
| simion314 | BluesKaj: i tried, but apt-get will not let me remove anything before I fix the issue | 12:54 |
| BluesKaj | simion314, sudo dpkg --remove --force-depends qmlviewer | 12:55 |
| BluesKaj | also get rid of that ppa first | 12:56 |
| simion314 | BluesKaj: thx, I removed the ubuntu-sdk and qt5 they conflicted with more qt4 stuff and I don't want to break my OS , I am the kind of person that prefers a stable system, running LTS with latest KDE, thx again | 13:01 |
| BluesKaj | simion314, hope you have no more errors ..LTS isn't necessarily as stable when you add ppas to the sources.list / package manager | 13:03 |
| simion314 | BluesKaj: I know, I try to not add PPAs, also ATI is no longer supporting my card, so no new proprietary drivers for me in new versions, I am thinking to get a new video card, what do you think ATI or nVidia? | 13:05 |

| simion314 | RedefinedClank: install pavucontrol then try with that to see if you can figure it out | 13:08 |
| RedefinedClank | ok | 13:08 |

| simion314 | RedefinedClank: yes, | 13:09 |
| RedefinedClank | Installing | 13:09 |
| Guest50517 | I installed kubuntu's bootloader to the proper SSD, but I did not create a new partition table (I have Windows 7 on there as well and don't need it getting wiped), on restart, GRUB was nowhere to be found | 13:09 |
| RedefinedClank | oh cool, just changed playback | 13:10 |

| RedefinedClank | awesome | 13:11 |
| RedefinedClank | Can I set a default? | 13:11 |
| Guest50517 | ovidiu: not to my knowledge. I just did a custom install, put / in the SSD, /home to my HDD, and told bootloader to load on top of SSD (SATA 0), I have Win7 on the SSD under sda1 par with kubuntu sda2 | 13:11 |
| simion314 | RedefinedClank: sure, I do not know exactly how but you can select it there in playback | 13:12 |
| Guest50517 | I cam from Ubuntu previously and there was a GRUB there | 13:12 |
| RedefinedClank | ok, I'll look around | 13:12 |
| simion314 | same for microphone, if you skype and have issue, use same app | 13:12 |
| RedefinedClank | seemsg good, thanks | 13:12 |
| Guest50517 | Is there an easy way to force a grub install to sda/ ? I already have the rest of the OS there, just no bootloader to find it. >.< | 13:13 |
| simion314 | Guest50517: I remember there ware some instructions on how to recover GRUB using a live cd, but I did not done this in years , it involved chrooting in the ubuntu partition and setup the grub | 13:13 |

| Guest50517 | Ahh ok. ovidiu-florin, I am trying grub-install, but it says /dev/sda/ source directory does not exist. :P I can see it | 13:20 |

| === Moocow is now known as nonDefaultUserna | ||
| BluesKaj | choose a nick and stay with it please , nonDefaultUserna | 13:32 |
| nonDefaultUserna | Sorry. :P But yeah, why is /boot/grub not readable? | 13:32 |
| ovidiu-florin | BluesKaj: is he the same one as Guest50517? | 13:32 |
| nonDefaultUserna | ovidiu-florin: yup | 13:32 |
| BluesKaj | run sudo blkid and find the windows dev , then install grub to that sdX , that's where the mbr is , usually it's sda , but not always | 13:33 |
| BluesKaj | nonDefaultUserna,^ | 13:34 |
| nonDefaultUserna | windows is sda1, but I thought sda, was the actual HDD to install bootloader to | 13:35 |
| BluesKaj | tes sda , not sda1 | 13:35 |
| BluesKaj | yes | 13:35 |
| nonDefaultUserna | windows first part looks like this: /dev/sda1 * 2048 206847 102400 7 HPFS/NTFS/exFAT | 13:35 |
| nonDefaultUserna | Win has sda1 and sda2. sda1 is likely their 'recovery' pretition that is only 100mb. sda2 is most likely the actual system. sda3 is Kubuntu | 13:37 |
| BluesKaj | nonDefaultUserna, mount /dev/sda | 13:37 |
| nonDefaultUserna | can't find /dev/sda in /etc/fstab or etc/mtab | 13:37 |
| BluesKaj | mbr is only 512kb | 13:37 |
| ovidiu-florin | if you are on LiveCD I don't think there should be an sda in the fstab | 13:38 |
| eagles051387 | hey BluesKaj :) | 13:38 |
| BluesKaj | yeah | 13:38 |
| nonDefaultUserna | ovidiu-florin: so I can't mount it? | 13:38 |
| eagles051387 | BluesKaj: whats the exact issue this person is having? | 13:38 |
| nonDefaultUserna | fdisk -l shows everything just fine | 13:38 |
| ovidiu-florin | nonDefaultUserna: you can mount it | 13:39 |
| BluesKaj | nonDefaultUserna, where is windows installed , first partition ? | 13:39 |
| eagles051387 | BluesKaj: is this a dual boot setup | 13:39 |
| nonDefaultUserna | BluesKaj: Windows has sda1 and sda2. | 13:39 |
| nonDefaultUserna | eagles051387: yes. | 13:39 |
| eagles051387 | and windows was installed before linux | 13:40 |
| nonDefaultUserna | eagles051387: yes. The problem is that I installed Kubuntu, but for some reason, it did not install GRUB. | 13:40 |
| eagles051387 | ahh ok | 13:40 |
| nonDefaultUserna | GRUB doesn't want to go on my system | 13:40 |
| eagles051387 | nonDefaultUserna: used a bootable usb? | 13:40 |
| eagles051387 | to install | 13:40 |
| nonDefaultUserna | LiveCD | 13:40 |
| eagles051387 | O_o | 13:40 |
| BluesKaj | then grub shoulkd have installed to the mbr automatically , or did you do a netinstall or PXE ? | 13:40 |
| nonDefaultUserna | (DVD, but same thing) | 13:40 |
| eagles051387 | ya | 13:40 |
| DarthFrog | nonDefaultUserna: You could try using EasyBCD to boot Linux from the Windows boot loader. | 13:41 |
| eagles051387 | BluesKaj: i have see only oddness with grub where if you leave the usb in the port it installs grub to the bootable usb | 13:41 |
| nonDefaultUserna | BluesKaj: I did a custom install and picked where I wanted it. I set sda as the bootloader location however | 13:41 |
| eagles051387 | so you have to remove the usb after the installer starts to install it to the MBR of the disk | 13:41 |
| DarthFrog | nonDefaultUserna: Did you try re-installing Kubuntu again? | 13:41 |
| BluesKaj | nonDefaultUserna, that's correct , then it should be there | 13:41 |
| nonDefaultUserna | DarthFrog: I did not. I assumed if it didn't work once, doing the same thing again would yeild same results. | 13:42 |
| nonDefaultUserna | after removing boot medium and booting, GRUB gave me grub recovery (I had ubuntu 13.04 on there earlier) | 13:42 |
| eagles051387 | hold on a sec | 13:43 |
| eagles051387 | try this out nonDefaultUserna http://www.supergrubdisk.org/ | 13:44 |
| eagles051387 | that is a repair utility | 13:44 |
| eagles051387 | i would make a bootable usb if you can | 13:44 |
| eagles051387 | using unetbootin | 13:44 |
| ovidiu-florin | ok, I'm out, BBL | 13:45 |
| eagles051387 | later ovidiu-florin | 13:45 |
| BluesKaj | eagles051387, that's awhole lot of trouble just to install grub | 13:45 |
| eagles051387 | then i think the only other way would be to mount the partition in a chroot | 13:46 |
| eagles051387 | and run sudo update-grub | 13:46 |
| nonDefaultUserna | in grub recovery console, is there a command to restore it? | 13:46 |
| eagles051387 | nonDefaultUserna: on the live cd? | 13:46 |
| nonDefaultUserna | No, when I boot without a medium, I get grub recovery | 13:47 |
| DarthFrog | eagles051387: If GRUB didn't install, he'd have to run grub-install, not update-grub. :-) | 13:47 |
| eagles051387 | nonDefaultUserna: then run the grub recovery | 13:47 |
| nonDefaultUserna | I have GRUB from my Ubuntu installation that this is going on top of, but it removed the previous GRUB | 13:47 |
| nonDefaultUserna | so it's not full GRUB, and I have no idea how to work it | 13:47 |
| eagles051387 | sadly I'm not any help there | 13:48 |
| nonDefaultUserna | When setting up Kubuntu installation, I only have to specify / and /home locations, yes? | 13:49 |
| eagles051387 | O_o | 13:49 |
| eagles051387 | nonDefaultUserna: you can let it automatically partition it for you | 13:49 |
| eagles051387 | or manually | 13:49 |
| BluesKaj | nonDefaultUserna, in the live cd mount dev/sda/ /mnt , then sudo grub-install /mnt /dev/sda | 13:49 |
| nonDefaultUserna | if it partitions for me, it wipes the whole drive. :P | 13:49 |
| eagles051387 | try what BluesKaj is suggesting :) | 13:50 |
| eagles051387 | BluesKaj: you are going to have an issue | 13:50 |
| eagles051387 | the live cd won't know the mount points for dev/sda | 13:50 |
| eagles051387 | as its not going to be in the fstab | 13:50 |
| BluesKaj | not if you use /mnt | 13:50 |
| eagles051387 | ahh right :D i forgot about that | 13:50 |
| BluesKaj | worked here but I have a separate drive soi it's essentially the same | 13:51 |
| BluesKaj | as livecd | 13:51 |
| nonDefaultUserna | BluesKaj: mount: special device dev/sda/ does not exist | 13:54 |
| eagles051387 | BluesKaj: i think he will need a chroot to mount the partition | 13:55 |
| nonDefaultUserna | I'm trying a reinstall to see if that will do it. | 14:00 |
| nonDefaultUserna | Other Ubuntu versions are fine adding a working bootloader, not sure what Kubuntu hates about it | 14:00 |
| DarthFrog | nonDefaultUserna: Pay particular attention to the screen that installs the bootloader. | 14:00 |
| MelRay_ | Zentyal is not working for me. I've done lsof -i to check ports created a group named admin added root and myusername to it. restarted zentyal apache and still don't get the login page. Can anyone suggest other things to try? | 14:01 |

| * BluesKaj wonders if dev/sda is just a typo or is he actually trying to install to dev/sda | 14:13 | |
| nonDefaultName | Yeah guys, I reinstalled and I get "/boot/grub/i386.pc/normal.mod not found" | 14:13 |
| DarthFrog | nonDefaultName: Did you check if the CD was good? | 14:14 |
| nonDefaultName | yup. | 14:14 |
| nonDefaultName | can BluesKaj, I was using exactly: mount /dev/sda | 14:14 |
| DarthFrog | /dev/sda is the whole disk, not a partition on it. | 14:17 |
| BluesKaj | /dev/sda is the windows partition | 14:18 |
| DarthFrog | Partition? | 14:19 |
| BluesKaj | dual booting | 14:19 |
| DarthFrog | Well, swap the drives around and install GRUB on /dev/sdb. | 14:20 |
| nonDefaultName | I thought /dev/sda was the entire disk and 1,2, and 3 were partitions inside of it | 14:21 |
| DarthFrog | Correct. | 14:21 |
| DarthFrog | But if you install GRUB to sda or sdb, it installs to the MBR. | 14:22 |
| nonDefaultName | I tried: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/ubuntu/reinstall-ubuntu-grub-bootloader-after-windows-wipes-it-out/ and it cannot mount selected partition. wtf? | 14:22 |
| BluesKaj | nonDefaultName, the windows partition has the mbr on it , and that's where grub should have installed | 14:22 |
| DarthFrog | BluesKaj: If he can swap the boot order of the drives in the BIOS, then just ignore Windows and sda. Do everything on sdb. | 14:23 |
| nonDefaultName | So I should install to sda1? | 14:23 |
| DarthFrog | nonDefaultName: No. You'll wipe out your Windows installation. | 14:24 |
| DarthFrog | Unless that's your goal, of course. :-) | 14:24 |
| nonDefaultName | When why is blue saying install grub to windows partition? sda1 and sda2 IS my windows partitions | 14:24 |
| DarthFrog | Which version of Windows, BTW? | 14:25 |
| nonDefaultName | 7 | 14:25 |
| DarthFrog | That's usually well-behaved. | 14:25 |
| BluesKaj | DarthFrog, yeah , thats what i did in order to have grub installed on this drive , i couldn't edit /etcdefault/grub because it was on a different drive | 14:25 |
| BluesKaj | nonDefaultName, I did NOT specify sda1 , I meant sda , which is where the mbr is located at the fron tof your drive , not the windows partiton asda1 | 14:26 |
| nonDefaultName | why is this so difficult? | 14:27 |
| DarthFrog | nonDefaultName: You're special. :-) | 14:27 |
| DarthFrog | nonDefaultName: Normally, it isn't. Normally, it just works. | 14:28 |
| BluesKaj | nonDefaultName,did you use a usb stick on your initial kubuntu install? | 14:28 |
| nonDefaultName | I used a DVD | 14:29 |
| BluesKaj | ok | 14:29 |
| nonDefaultName | I used grub-update and it seemed to do something, let me try a reboot | 14:29 |
| BluesKaj | try installing grub to sdb fom the live dvd instead as DarthFrog has suggested | 14:30 |

| yahyaa | no | 14:45 |

| DarthFrog | You seem to have a botched system. | 14:46 |
| yahyaa | wow | 14:46 |
| yahyaa | so I should just reinstall it, yes | 14:46 |
| DarthFrog | My suggesttion would be to backup your home directory and do a fresh install. | 14:46 |
| yahyaa | I figured you would say that!!! ugh........ | 14:47 |
| DarthFrog | If it were me, that's what I'd do. Nuke & pave, in my wife's words. :-) | 14:47 |

| Neon | Hey, I'm running kubuntu 11.10 (oneiric ocelot) and I've problems with my tilde key (German layout) that became worse since I'm using synergy. I always need to press the tilde key twice to get a tilde character. With synergy it just inserts a space when I press the tilde key once. I assume it's because of this weird "feature". I couldn't yet find anything to "fix" it. Can you please help me? | 17:15 |
| Neon | (synergy is a software that lets you use a keyboard connected to another pc over the network) | 17:16 |
| Neon | But for now I'd just like to know if there's a way to fix this double tap issue. | 17:17 |
| Neon | I found a solution for the double tap problem. Seems to be a synergy issue. | 17:25 |

| ronalds | hello everyone | 20:20 |
| ronalds | I just installed kubuntu with disc for first time, and it runs nice | 20:21 |
| ronalds | but I have problem in way I partitioned hard drive, I didn't deleted ubuntu partition | 20:21 |
| BluesKaj | ronalds: yes it does | 20:21 |
| seele | anyone have about 30 minutes for an interview about their notifications? it will earn a $5 donation to the kde e.v. for their participation | 20:21 |
| ronalds | and now I would like to delete it | 20:21 |
| juancarlospaco | from PyQt4 import QtMultimedia #FAILS, why ? | 20:22 |
| ronalds | but partition manager won't allow to delete higher number partitions | 20:22 |
| BluesKaj | ronalds: , if you're happy with the kubuntu partition then you can delete the the ubuntu partition and expand the kubuntu partition into the free space . | 20:23 |
| ronalds | it says to me | 20:23 |
| ronalds | that I have mounted higher number partition | 20:23 |
| ronalds | so I have to unmount it | 20:24 |
| BluesKaj | you have to use a live cd or usb with gparted to do so , you can't edit partitions that are in use. | 20:24 |
| ronalds | but I can't unmount kubuntu partition from kubuntu | 20:24 |
| ronalds | which live cd from xubuntu, kubuntu, ubuntu comes with gparteD? | 20:25 |
| BluesKaj | !gparted | ronalds | 20:25 |
| ubottu | ronalds: gparted is a !GTK/!Gnome !GUI partitioning program. Type « sudo apt-get install gparted » in a console to install it - A GParted "live" CD is available at http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php | 20:25 |
| ronalds | I don't have discs | 20:26 |
| ronalds | can I use kubuntu live cd and do it with kubuntu partition manager? | 20:26 |
| BluesKaj | do you have a windows partition? | 20:26 |
| BluesKaj | yes | 20:27 |
| BluesKaj | try the the live cd partition manager | 20:27 |
| juancarlospaco | from PyQt4 import QtMultimedia # FAILS, anyone knows why ? | 20:28 |
| ronalds | yes I have | 20:28 |
| ronalds | !PyQt4 | 20:28 |
| ronalds | !PyQt4 | juancarlospaco | 20:29 |
| juancarlospaco | ?? | 20:29 |
| BluesKaj | there's no factoid in the info mbot for PyQt4 ...it might a part of a python dir | 20:32 |

| OerHeks | you cannot change hardware ID, afaik | 20:56 |
| jman074 | no its an external drive i need to reformat | 20:56 |
| juancarlospaco | does anyone knows what happened to QtMultimedia on Kubuntu ??? | 20:56 |
| OerHeks | jman074, just start kde partition manager, type partition in search and it will pop up. | 21:00 |
| BluesKaj | juancarlospaco, are you referring to qt-4 phonon module ? | 21:03 |
| juancarlospaco | BluesKaj: QtMultimedia | 21:04 |
| juancarlospaco | need a Lib to WRITE Sound using Qt / KDE | 21:04 |
| juancarlospaco | Qt and or KDe | 21:04 |
| juancarlospaco | BluesKaj: capture sound from a Device, QtMultimedia no one knows what happened to it, Phonon it says cant Write | 21:05 |
| sil | ciao | 21:05 |
| BluesKaj | jua I've never heard of qtmultimedia , I see it in the repos as a development app , but I'm on 13.10 so I'm not sure about 13.04 | 21:06 |
| BluesKaj | juancarlospaco,^ | 21:06 |
| juancarlospaco | im on 13.10 BluesKaj | 21:07 |
| juancarlospaco | :/( | 21:07 |
| BluesKaj | check muon | 21:07 |
| juancarlospaco | so... ? | 21:07 |
| juancarlospaco | it does not work | 21:07 |
| juancarlospaco | BluesKaj: from PyQt4 import QtMultimedia fails because no such lib it says | 21:08 |
| BluesKaj | well , then you should ask in #ubuntu+1 , this channel is for 13.04 and lower | 21:08 |
| OerHeks | indeed, for 13.10 saucy join #ubuntu+1 | 21:09 |
| BluesKaj | or #kubuntu-devel | 21:09 |
| juancarlospaco | I come from there... noe one knows... | 21:09 |
| juancarlospaco | :( | 21:09 |
| BluesKaj | what's the purpose of using qtmultimedia anyway , is this a dev specialty media app ? | 21:10 |
| juancarlospaco | BluesKaj: need a Lib to WRITE Sound using Qt / KDE | 21:11 |
| BluesKaj | juancarlospaco, so what errors are you getting? .."it doesn't work" is difficult to understand what you meam | 21:13 |
| juancarlospaco | qtmultimedia does not exist, ence is installed | 21:14 |
| juancarlospaco | searching doc about phonon, but they told me it did not Write, only reads | 21:14 |
| juancarlospaco | i dunno | 21:14 |
| BluesKaj | search in muon the package manager to see what's available ...it's listed as a qt5 development app | 21:16 |
| juancarlospaco | got it installed | 21:17 |
| juancarlospaco | but it didnt work | 21:17 |
| BluesKaj | so what happens when you try to use it , any errors or what? | 21:19 |
| juancarlospaco | yes | 21:21 |
| juancarlospaco | No module named QMultimedia BluesKaj | 21:21 |
| BluesKaj | juancarlospaco, sudo apt-get update;sudo apt-get upgrade , then reboot | 21:23 |
| juancarlospaco | already done BluesKaj | 21:23 |
| OerHeks | then the module might not be ready yet, 13.10 is in alfa stage | 21:24 |
| OerHeks | or pre-alfa | 21:24 |
| BluesKaj | yup, it's a development app, probly needs some other libs | 21:25 |
| juancarlospaco | not working on 13.04 | 21:26 |
| BluesKaj | 13.10 isn't ready for creativity | 21:26 |
| juancarlospaco | .04 | 21:27 |
| BluesKaj | juancarlospaco, have you asked in #qt ? | 21:27 |
| juancarlospaco | yes BluesKaj | 21:27 |
| BluesKaj | well , I'm out of ideas :( ..not being familiar with it doesn't help either | 21:30 |
| juancarlospaco | :( | 21:31 |
| BluesKaj | dinner , then going out ..good luck | 21:36 |

| Walex2 | Djyou: easily, just boot with a LiveCD, and modify the password file. There are HOWTOs on the Wiki for this IIRC, or just do a web search | 22:47 |
