[14:58] yes. i am currently working on a windows machine on the same router [14:58] i'm not that newb [14:58] NM says no connections, no devices [14:59] [20:28] i'm not that newb what does it mean?? [14:59] i'm not that new [14:59] new to linux, not a machine in general [14:59] Okk :) [15:00] nowhereusa: First, we need to confirm that NetworkManager is showing a wired connection [15:00] hmm, Thats true.. [15:00] Open terminal and try ifconfig [15:01] as i cannot cut and paste i'm going to keep it short. let me know if you want expanded info [15:01] Are you using Windows over any hypervisor? [15:01] they are different machines [15:02] nowhereusa: Does Network Managers applet in the task-bar show a Wired Connection?

[15:03] correct, to ifconfig [15:03] trry ifconfig eth0 [15:03] device not found [15:04] it means your ethernet port do have some problem in that machine.. [15:04] tj: i don't have said said applet in task-bar, which I found odd given everything i've read [15:05] nowhereusa: OK, run this command and then show me, for each line returned, just the last part of the lines where it looks like [1234:abcd] "lspci -nn | egrep -i 'net|wire' " [15:05] that's not the case. I have a separate windows harddrive, connection works fine [15:05] nowhereusa: e.g. if you see "Network controller [0280]: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 4965 AG or AGN [Kedron] Network Connection [8086:4229] (rev 61)" I only need the "[8086:4229]" [15:07] TJ: Got a list of commands [15:07] usage: lspci [15:07] nowhereusa: You must have mis-typed [15:07] sorry 1 sec [15:08] nowhereusa: " lspci -nn | egrep -i 'net|wire' " [15:08] nowhereusa: the "|" is the vertical bar symbol [15:11] ok i'm no this stupid [15:11] yes i used vertical bar === spawn[dead] is now known as spawn57 [15:13] net wire is with quotes yes? [15:13] nowhereusa: Yes, single quotes [15:15] friend, I'm telling you i'm typing this correctly [15:15] i'm not this dense [15:15] hey guys I am having resolution problem with my Live kubuntu or netrunner. First of all when I booted it gave me options which were so scratched that I could only see a broken white line that's all after that it booted me to the main screen with a resolution of 1024 x 768 on a screen with 1366 x 768 this only happened to this two OS [15:16] I tried changing but no luck [15:16] it worked fine and perfect with Linux mint just kubuntu [15:16] netrunner [15:17] tj:command list says use soecufued ud database instead of net|wire [15:17] *specified [15:18] specified ID database [15:18] nowhereusa, copy and paste is your friend [15:18] BluesKaj: different machines, connection problem [15:19] ok , nowhereusa , sorry to hear that [15:20] hey guys anyone [15:21] TJ: I saw you dropped and came back. Not sure if you saw: keep getting usage list, -i command says "use specified ID database instead of net|wire" [15:22] nowhereusa: If you're seeing that error then the "|" symbol isn't being typed or accepted correctly, since it joins two separate commands, but that error shows that 'net|wire' are being passed to the first command "lspci" [15:23] shift \ [15:23] | [15:29] TJ: there are two | correct? -nn| and .. 'net|wire' [15:32] TJ: lspci -nn | egrep -i 'net|wire' [15:33] I typed it. I'm sure I got it right [15:33] !netsplit [15:33] netsplit is when two IRC servers of the same network (like freenode) disconnect from each other, so users on one server stop seeing users on the other.

I've tried 4 different and two work but only to boot windows. Grub2 no such partition/unkown filesystem | grub error 18 | lilo Fatal: cannot open: /etc/lilo.conf | NTLDR boots only windows [16:35] Lilo nad NTLDR is the ones actually booting anything [16:36] but lilo won't let me generate a conf [16:36] kubuntu doesn't install lilo by default [16:36] i know [16:36] why are you not using the standard install [16:36] because the standard throws me a no such partition [16:37] sorry thats just not real [16:37] grub gives an error - so you swap to lilo outside of the installer [16:37] that makes no sense [16:37] grub refuses to find my linux partition so i switched to lilo because at least it's booting something [16:38] I'd suggest fixing the grub issue as that is the standard bootloader going forward. [16:38] but nothing works [16:38] i've tried reinstalling, boot-repair [16:38] Moholmarn: well, we can look at that, as you appear to not really understand how to use lilo [16:38] i can't even config it [16:38] so you should concentrate on fixing the problem with the standard boot loader, which for kubuntu is grub [16:38] i've used lilo before, but that time nothing borked [16:39] Moholmarn: using it, does not mean you have an idea how to use it, which looking at your comments you don't [16:39] so I'd suggest progressing the grub problem [16:39] then progesss ahead because i'm stuck [16:40] that's why i switched [16:40] firstly - do a clean kubuntu install from a CD (I'm guessing as you can't boot it - you've not done anything with it, so it's a new install anyway) [16:40] that way we can get to a known good "broken" state with grub [16:41] my USB stick is slow as hell just so you know, so it might take a while [16:41] so you're installing from usb [16:41] yes [16:41] or installing to a usb [16:41] from [16:41] ok - so that's probably the reason [16:41] onto laptop with single HDD [16:42] on some PC's the usb device becomes the primary disk (sda) and grub till try to be installed onto that [16:42] with WINXP [16:42] i've checked it already, it registeres as SDB1 [16:43] i can give you a paste from the boot repair if that helps [16:43] Moholmarn: ok, so sda in that case should be your internal disk, and grub should be installed to "sda" [16:43] boot repair - is NOT the installer [16:43] so that does not mean it's how the installer see's oit [16:43] it [16:44] i know, but the boot repair let's me check the conf for grub (which is pointing to the right places but refuses to boot anyway) [16:44] Moholmarn: please re-read what I said [16:44] Moholmarn: bootrepair does not represent what the installer sees/does [16:44] i know [16:45] right - so please don't quote boot repair as a good source of info [16:45] Can you be a little bit more condescending? i'm not a retard [16:45] I'll leave you to it - bye [16:45] boot repair does work fixing grub ...with lilo , not sure [16:46] it doesn't fix grub [16:46] If it did i wouldn't be here [16:49] Moholmarn, well, it has for me , several times ...what's your partition table , grub should install to the mbr and include windows , unless you installed windows after installing linux === Philip6 is now known as Philip5 [16:50] I threw the fucking laptop out the window, i've been trying for THREE days getting the piece of shit OS to work, now i canät even fix it [16:51] Moholmarn: stop with the language [16:51] Moholmarn: there is no need for it and it's not welcome [16:51] KICK ME THEN YOU PIECE OF SHIT! [16:55] too bad , his problem could have been solved , I think ...frustration gets the best of some ppl [16:56] BluesKaj_: could have been solved easy [16:56] however he didn't want to admit he didn't know what he was doing and thus had a bad attitude [16:59] well, being wrong and asking for help sort go hand in hand , but pointing it out probly put him over the edge [17:00] when the source of the problem is pebkac not a whole lot you can do to fix it [17:00] no-one actually pointed it out to him, he just kept giving useless information, and then saying "I know" when you pointed out it was useless and not what was asked for [17:01] seems odd to know it's useless but keep giving it over and over anyway === BluesKaj_ is now known as BluesKaj === devongarber1 is now known as Pqqq1 [17:42] high [17:43] low [17:43] er 'lo [17:48] lol === dziegler_off is now known as dziegler === dziegler is now known as dziegler_off === root is now known as Guest33312 [18:22] Hi Everyone, Do you know how can I change the size of the minimized windows on the tray panel?
