[00:01] wihu, still here? [00:02] yes [00:02] Hello... [00:03] but im still trying to figure out kubuntu keybord so maby my answers will sound a bit retarded [00:04] I just installed java, just as a extra proscedure [00:05] wihu, so for the .sh file [00:05] wihu, you are the sudoer on you machine right? [00:05] the "admin" or "root" ? [00:05] jepp [00:06] or yes [00:06] wihu, so... you know the full path to the file? [00:06] like [00:06] yes [00:06] chmod +x /home/thatdirectory/setup.sh [00:06] but with the actual path [00:06] then it should run [00:06] in terminal of course [00:06] ok ill try it directly [00:07] also if you're going to run it regularly [00:07] ln -s /home/thatdirectory/setup.sh /usr/bin [00:07] but if its just one time [00:07] just do the path [00:07] im will probebly run it everyday [00:08] ah if you're doing the ./somefile method, you need to be in the directory of the file [00:08] so... if /home/thatdirectory has the setup.sh [00:08] you can do ./setup.sh [00:08] otherwise you need the whole line [00:08] hmm [00:09] i tried the chmod commando [00:09] but no resluts [00:09] chmod doesn't print anything per se... [00:10] aaa [00:10] unless you make it verbose [00:10] okok, but im still not getting the installation to launch [00:10] hmm [00:10] what is this again? [00:11] its SAS 9.3 [00:11] er, what program are you trying to run/compile/start [00:11] SAS? [00:11] yes [00:11] SAS [00:11] is that an acronym? [00:11] yes i belive so [00:12] hmm maby not, couse i never seen it beeing spelled out [00:12] let's see how 13.10 works [00:13] i have looked at different forums that did have similar problems but my knowlege is to weak to fully understand what i have to do [00:14] sorry, client crash [00:14] anyways [00:14] http://www.sas.com/software/sas9/index.html yes ! [00:15] i think you missed my previous remark [00:15] hmm... I'm not very familiar with that... [00:15] anyways... so chmod +x didn't work? [00:15] i have searched differnet forums and they have similar problems but my knowlage is a bit weak to understad fully what i need to do === freeflying_away is now known as freeflying [00:16] well after chmod i tried again [00:16] wihu, what does the terminal say when you do setup.sh ? [00:16] but same problem [00:16] first [00:16] preparing the sasa devployemt wizard [00:17] then [00:17] wihu, er [00:17] launching the sas develooment wizzard [00:17] then nothing [00:17] if its a long output, use www.pastebin.com [00:17] the exact output will be useful [00:18] modilinux@ubuntu:~/SAS$ cd modilinux@ubuntu:~$ chmod +x /home/modilinux/SAS/setup.sh modilinux@ubuntu:~$ sudo sh /home/modilinux/SAS/setup.sh Preparing the SAS Deployment Wizard... Launching the SAS Deployment Wizard... modilinux@ubuntu:~$ [00:19] wihu, and no window pops up? [00:19] nope =/ [00:19] wihu, just to eliminate all wrong possibilities.. [00:19] do older versions work? [00:20] have not tried [00:20] first time trying linux [00:20] er... older versions of SAS [00:20] http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=641448&page=6 <--- same problem but i cant get it to work for me [00:21] in school we have linux and SAS so it should work [00:21] kubuntu and SAS 9.0 [00:23] hm... [00:23] wihu, alright... a random thing you might try.. [00:23] often when I try to open a GUI based application in a terminal, it can't connect to the display [00:24] so... wihu alt+f2 [00:24] and in the little box, try the path [00:24] just the path [00:24] /home/somedir/setup.sh [00:24] nothing before or after [00:25] trying to work out how to press f2 on my mac to make it work on kubuntu [00:25] er... if that isn't working... [00:26] wihu, is your application menu application launcher style, or classic style? [00:26] if it has a text input panel in it, its the kind which basically does the same thing [00:26] so just put the path into the textbar and enter [00:27] yepp [00:27] so did that wokr? [00:27] *work [00:27] yes i typed it in the run command with just that specifiks yuor wrote [00:27] and im in the folder [00:28] wihu, one last thing I could reccomend, as I'm not familiar with the thing... [00:28] wihu, open Dolphin [00:29] yepp [00:29] navigate to the folder, and right click on setup.sh [00:29] yepp [00:29] click on properties [00:30] yepp [00:30] and click on permissions [00:30] done [00:30] so... in the box that says "is executable" does it have a check in it? [00:30] yes it does [00:31] alright, now close the window and just click on the file... [00:31] if that doesn't work... idk... [00:32] ask your school I guess [00:32] hmmm i would if it was legit [00:32] the sas copy [00:32] :P [00:32] haha [00:32] sorry... I'm not really familiar with it... [00:33] so I just tried all the basics... [00:33] well wait [00:33] no worries many thanx for trying [00:33] yes? [00:33] try it with sudo [00:33] because it might need sudo privs [00:33] hmm how does one use sudo ? [00:34] sudo "somecommand/somepath" [00:34] sorry [00:34] just put sudo before it [00:34] i was in sudo all time [00:34] ah... [00:34] well if it doesn't work with sudo... sorry [00:34] i think im missing something to runt the installation program [00:35] but many thanks for trying tho =) [00:36] np === haxxpop is now known as Guest43727 === dziegler_off is now known as dziegler === dziegler is now known as dziegler_off === MangaKaDenza is now known as RJ47 === RJ47 is now known as MangaKaDenza === dziegler_off is now known as dziegler === Toadnohyp is now known as Hypnotoad === dziegler is now known as dziegler_off === dziegler_off is now known as dziegler === dziegler is now known as dziegler_off === Guest43727 is now known as haxxpop [07:11] good morning === dziegler_off is now known as dziegler === dziegler is now known as dziegler_off [07:26] Good morning.

I wonder where this distribution go and what alternatives doi have === haxxpop_ is now known as haxxpop [10:26] Promethes: while there are some rough corners, samba browsing isn't one of them. Maybe you're missing some packages. [10:34] alvin: samba browsing should be installed by default, btw. in dolphin i can browse samba shares without problems [10:43] printer share browsing is not present and in fact not even implemented, I have no idea why [10:45] Maybe it didn't fit on the ISO? No idea. I can't confirm because I'm using a remote cups server. Edit /etc/cups/client.conf, and done. === shadeslayer_ is now known as shadeslayer === rowan is now known as Guest95985 [12:43] Hiyas all [12:49] having a tough time installing kubuntu on this new laptop, the UEFI / |BIOS settings are hit and miss [12:50] first time with uefi? ive not tryed it yet [13:00] yeah, loyya researfch to do , seems to vary according to the mobo installed [13:00] lots of [13:00] great when ya figure it out let me know lol save me doing it [13:01] using kde for windows atm , wiped W8 and installed W7 [13:02] laptop came with w7 also? [13:03] it came with W8.1 [13:05] 6 partitions , believe it or not [13:05] how can that be? [13:05] strange [13:06] alot has changed then i guess [13:06] Windows needs 4 when using UEFI and GPT. Keep some space for Kubuntu (at least 2: root and swap) [13:07] too late [13:10] w7 needs only 2 [13:10] what kubuntu you loading ? [13:11] Ive tried 13.04 to 14.04 , nothing loads past the try ubuntu screen [13:12] you turning ueft off then or what? [13:12] uefi [13:12] I have EUFI enabled , since most forums suggest it will work with the nwer kubuntus [13:12] oh [13:12] UEFI [13:12] ya that [13:13] used legacy to install W7 === starcraftman_ is now known as starcraftman [13:16] and i forgot to enable virtulizing so VB and VMs won't work ...kinda mucked things up for myself [13:17] kde apps run nicely on W7 tho [13:20] :} [13:20] strange, as i said before on my dell i didnt experienced aby problems :) [13:20] They do? It has been a h [13:20] while since I tried. [13:21] Pure UEFI here. No problems with Kubuntu 13.10, but it needed a bit of searching for the right combination... Also, Windows doesn't actually show all partitions, but you can see them from Linux. [13:21] just bought, resized main partition, created 2 new partitions (for / and home), reboot install Kubuntu, be happy :D === kubuntu is now known as Guest23851 [13:25] haven't tried gparted live cd or a bootable image on usb yet , guess that's my next attempt [13:26] alvin: so what combination did you use , do recall ? [13:26] you [13:29] BluesKaj: It's an ASUS motherboard. There were 2 settings in the 'BIOS' (well...) 'UEFI only', and then a very interesing one. You could choose "UEFI first, then legacy oprom", "UEFI first", and two others. Don't ask me what the difference is.... I set it to "UEFI first". After that, there's no "legacy BIOS". I UEFI booted the Windows installer, and installed. Then, I resized the disk (from within Windows 8.1) to make room for Kubuntu. After [13:29] that, I booted the Kubuntu installer, installed on that part and put the boot loader on /dev/sda. Now, your UEFI will want to boot Windows only, and you will NOT see grub and NOT get a choice. So, I changed the UEFI thing (BIOS) to boot from the Kubuntu part. That shows the grub boot loader with all choices. [13:29] And all is well. [13:31] * BluesKaj nods , thanks alvin [13:31] np [13:32] okk , bbl [13:32] OH, a very important other thing. I do think I used a LiveCD to write a GPT disk label on the empty disk first. Just to be sure.

Can anyone test something to see if it's just me? === PasNox_ is now known as PasNox [20:11] Trel_mobile, ? [20:13] When I do apt-get install kdm, it uninstalls plasma-desktop (and a number of othet kde components), does it do that for you too? [20:13] On a fresh kubuntu install. [20:13] lightdm-kde-greeter is new login, kdm is deprecated and soon unsupported [20:14] I dislike lightdm, hence why I installed kdm [20:14] But i have to reinstall plasma each time I do [20:16] Trel_mobile, I am quite happy with kde's config on my end I don't see the point in messing with my system... I will try it just to see the output if you want, I can pm my output... [20:16] what don't you like about lightdm? [20:17] * dougl pretends he knows the difference... [20:17] Yes, you don't have to do the install, I just want to see if it marks a lot of kde components for removal for anyone else. [20:17] k [20:18] I have a long list, but some include certain configuration option, themes that exist for kdm but not lightdm, login style, and how it manages available sessions. [20:18] Frankly it doesn't really feel like part of kde either. [20:19] nope just kicks in to a kdm config screen that the only option I hav e is to say ok... knew I shouldn't have tried it - hope it did not fuck up my box [20:19] Trel_mobile: That is because it is a Ubuntu thing ;) [20:20] Dougl it didn't even confirm which packages would get installed? That's a completely foreign behavior. [20:20] Trel_mobile: And on Trusty it only installs kdm, doesn't remove or add anything else. [20:21] I'll load up a vm tonight and do more testing then. [20:24] which package provides /usr/share/xsessions/kde.desktop? [20:26] Probably kde-workspace-data [20:27] genii, that's it, thanks! === albhert is now known as glasz_ === dziegler_off is now known as dziegler === dziegler is now known as dziegler_off [21:26] hey guys is there a kde ppa [21:29] !kde [21:29] KDE (http://kde.org) is an open community that creates and maintains software including the Plasma desktop. To install from Ubuntu: « sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop », or see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingKDE . See http://kubuntu.org for more information. [21:29] ok that doesnt help much [21:29] ook guys i dunno whats up but for some reason dolphin isnt even mounting my usb external hard disk [21:29] even using command line to try and mount it [21:30] wtf [21:30] kde partition application is saying its got no partitions :O [21:30] and i have all my music on there wtf [21:33] eagles0513875, what kind of partition is on there? [21:33] dougl: ntfs [21:33] and now gparted and the kde partition programs are showing nothing at all [21:33] and i had this plugged in earlier today and everythign was fine [21:34] ok... there is something you need to do for ntfs... what did you try to mount it from the cli? [21:34] dougl: yes [21:34] but it said it wasnt in fstab or mtab [21:34] im goign ot try mout it in a windows vm i have on here [21:35] dougl: never had to do anything [21:35] i do know that for me 13.10 has been very buggy [21:35] on this laptop [21:35] do you know if there is a kubuntu kde ppa [21:36] well lets do a manual mount then we can fix fstab later [21:36] eagles0513875: kde is officially in the repos, why do you want a PPA? [21:36] do you want the latest-and-greatest builds of KDE? [21:36] i already run project neon [21:36] but i have lots of issues with the version that comes in 13.10 [21:37] dougl: ok let me see if windows picks up the partition firstly [21:37] mount -t ntfs /dev/ /mnt/ ... does that make sense to you eagles0513875 ? [21:37] ok [21:37] do i need to have a directory setup in the mount point [21:37] yes [21:38] I would do... [21:38] sudo mkdir /mnt/usbdrive [21:38] then... [21:39] mount -t ntfs /dev/ /mnt/usbdrive [21:39] NTFS signature is missing. [21:39] is what i get when i run that command :( [21:39] * dougl googling [21:41] dougl: do you know how i can mount said drive in a kvm based windows vm to see if the issue persists in windows [21:42] no i dont know... [21:42] no problem [21:42] lets chat in #ubuntu as the mounting issues have nothing to do with kde I don't think and #ubuntu is way more people to help us [21:43] ok === rajesh is now known as Guest23901 [21:55] hi === kubuntu is now known as Guest13907 [22:27] good evening. I try to install Kubuntu to my hdd, but installation always fails at "post-installation-trigger init-ramfs" === claydoh_ is now known as claydoh [22:32] any known solutions for this problem? [22:37] anyone here? [22:38] Usr_: yes a lot of people [22:38] i can't help you i bever experienced such problem [22:40] could this be caused because of a too small /boot partition? [22:40] i don't find any recommendations about the prefered size... [22:41] Conceivably. However, the initrd doesn't occupy a lot of space, really. [22:41] it has 100 MB [22:41] does it require an own boot partition? [22:42] when i use the auto-partitioner, it would format an whole harddisc... [22:42] And for the manual partitioning, it doesn't recomends anything [22:43] Usr_: If you are using a common filesystem like ext2/3/4 doesn't really need it's own separate /boot ... but some fs that you might want to use for root fs like reiser/btrfs/xfs or so on need a separate ext2/3/4 /boot partition [22:43] i want to use ext4 [22:43] so i suggest 2 partition, 1 for / and 2 for /home :) [22:44] GRUB is going to be installed on first one [22:44] also verify your image if is ok [22:45] With the check imideately after booting from it? [22:45] i did, it is ok [22:46] when i tried installing the first time, it offered to use the free space on my hard disk to install it there. from the 2nd try, i can only choose "use entire disc" or manual [22:46] the disk has ~295GB free space [22:48] oh... number of partitions on a disc is limited, right? [22:49] 4 primary max, yes [22:50] maybe that's the problem [22:50] Can't boot off an extended partition also [22:52] do i need a swap-partition when i don't want to suspend to disc? [22:59] Usr_: It's usually good to have even if you don't want to suspend, since it could get used for other things like when the computer is doing something intensive using a lot of ram [23:00] is the checkbox for "install updates during installation" inverted? oO [23:00] This time i didn't checked it and it downloads a lot. Before i checked it, and it didn't download anything [23:00] (but the language packs) [23:05] this time it worked oO [23:05] thx for your help [23:05] seems like no matter how much ram I have 5MB or so always gets swapped out === phantom is now known as Guest73226 === dziegler_off is now known as dziegler === dziegler is now known as dziegler_off === gilbert is now known as goodtime === steve__ is now known as Mech422 === alexander is now known as Guest15862
