DesignerXhi, in Kubuntu 14 , I'm unable to run the "System Settings" !01:09
DesignerXhi, is there a CL to mount all drives ?01:28
rohanDesignerX: what do you mean by "CL"?01:28
DesignerXCommand Line01:28
rohanDesignerX: "mount -a" will mount all drives listed in /etc/fstab01:29
rohanDesignerX: also for system settings, what happens if you run "systemsettings" from the command line?01:30
DesignerXI restarted the PC & it seems to work.. I will save your note in case that same problem happens again.01:31
DesignerXalso change to a default theme (was using a downloaded theme)01:31
DesignerXso I need to edit /etc/fstab ?  it only has one line for the default Disk01:33
odsentso it's not true that it's illegal for 18 year old seniors to fap on an underclassman's naked ass and back [20:35] <odsent> this is so damn triggering [20:35] <odsent> http://www.reddit.com/r/NoFap/comments/w8zrn/i_fapped_onto_a_naked_girls_ass_and_back_does_it/ [20:35] <odsent> and i can't stop thinking about the girls are monkeys thing [20:35] <odsent> it makes me think of a monkey laying down on a bed while a guy faps on her red a01:38

TheFakeazneD525.03:17
DesignerXlol .. was testing if i'm still connected to the chat .. no chat for a while03:24
barihoI'm a bit confused, kubuntu homepage says the 32-bit release is recommended. why? is there any real reason to pick 32bit over 64bit on 64bit hardware? (thinpad t400, core 2 duo)03:28
barihois wine still problematic on 64bit linux? (I was recommended to use 32bit linux because of that years ago)03:29
valoriethis is odd; with the newest kernel update my wireless seems not to be working03:39
valorieit says it is connected, but I had to get a wire to get online03:39
valoriecouldn't `dig google.com` etc.03:40
dodger__valorie: what kernel version?03:41
DesignerXhi, kubuntu 14 64x , I cant seem to associate a file with "netbeans"03:41
valorieoh dang, what is the cli command to get the kernel version?03:42
dodger__valorie: uname -a03:42
DarthFroguname -r03:42
valorie$ uname -a03:43
dodger__DarthFrog is right, of course03:43
valorieLinux valorie-HP-Pavilion-dv7-Notebook-PC 3.13.0-27-generic #50-Ubuntu SMP Thu May 15 18:06:16 UTC 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux03:43
valorie$ uname -r03:43
dodger__that's what i'm running - do you know what type of wireless network adapter you have?03:43
valorie3.13.0-27-generic03:43
valoriehmmm, no03:43
valorieit's just run like a top until I restarted03:44
valorieI guess I could step back to the previous kernel version03:45
DarthFrogvalorie: examine the output of "lspci -v" to see if you can figure out your wireless NIC from that.03:45
dodger__sounds like the update borked the driver for your card03:45
valoriepaste.kde.org/pbzfjzquc03:48
valorieerr03:49
valorieno, that's gotta be it, right?03:49
valorienothing calls itself wireless, of course03:50
dodger__yeah, that's it03:52
dodger__it says you're connected but you get nothing?03:53
valorieyes03:53
valorieI reset the cable modem and wireless both first03:53
valorieand restarted again03:53
valoriesays, fine, you are connected03:53
valoriebut not really03:54
dodger__i've never seen that... it does sound like something broke in the update though03:54
DesignerXdodger__: hi, I had problem with wireless too with Kubuntu .. let me check my docs & I may have a changelog that may help.03:54
dodger__DesignerX: cool, thanks03:54
valorieI'm surely not the first person here to have a problem, but it's Just Worked for soooo long03:54
valorieI got spoiled03:54
dodger__i've seen all kinds of wireless problems over the years, but that's a new one03:54
dodger__to me anyway :P03:55
valoriedodger__: it's happened before when the cable modem was wonky03:55
dodger__you could try pinging your router to see if the problem actually is with your card03:55
valoriein other words, the wireless is working great, but the modem isn't connecting to the internet03:55
DesignerXdodger__: only got  sudo rmmod ath9k && sudo modprobe ath9k03:56
dodger__you'll have an IP address like 192.168.1.n, and 192.168.1.1 is then usually going to be your router03:56
valorieyou mean when the wire is unplugged, I assume?03:56
dodger__yes03:56
DesignerXsomethinbg to do with making sure the driver is loaded ?03:56
dodger__if you can ping the router, then it's not your card but the router doesn't forward your packets to the cable modem03:56
dodger__DesignerX: yeah, i remember... i think your problem was a different one03:56
dodger__valorie's says it's connected, but she can't get any packages through to the interwebs03:57
DesignerXkk, didnt read all the chat above, but say wireless & shared what I have :D  GL  (i'm linux noob myself)03:57
valorieactually, it reports I'm still connected wirelessly as well03:57
DesignerXbut saw *03:57
valoriebut 0/0 activity03:57
valoriethe widget says paste.kde.org/pvisazb7f03:58
valorieso what do I try pinging?03:58
dodger__yeah - disconnect the wired network, and try pinging the router directly03:59
dodger__see what you get, if you get a response, then the problem lies with your wireless router03:59
valoriedodger__: what exact command?03:59
dodger__first, what's your IP address?03:59
dodger__on the wireless network, that is04:00
dodger__ifconfig should tell you04:00
valoriewhat's my ip says Your IP Address is 98.232.42.21204:00
valorieoh04:00
DesignerXdodger__: When you are free. I'm unable to associate a file with my Netbeans editor (or any other software). Using "File Association" in KDE.  You know of any CommandLike to use to force this or a file to edit somewhere ?04:01
valoriepaste.kde.org/pg4j61jxd04:01
dodger__ok, so you can leave the wired network connected to try this04:01
dodger__ping 192.168.1.104:02
valoriepaste.kde.org/pgn8b0skk04:02
dodger__DesignerX: go to system settings -> file associations04:03
dodger__valorie: ok, you get a response from the router, that means your wireless card is indeed connected and transmitting/receiving04:03
dodger__but the router isn't forwarding through to the cable modem04:03
dodger__do you have a separate wireless router or is it built into the cable modem?04:04
valoriewell, the cable modem IS the router04:04
dodger__hmm04:04
valorieyes, they are one unit04:04
valorieperhaps I should reset it again04:04
valoriedamn thing04:04
valorieit isn't that old......04:04
dodger__yeah, if that doesn't work, the only thing i could think of is to go to the router/modem's web interface to see if anything looks off in the configuration there04:04
dodger__you should be able to point a browser directly to http://192.168.1.104:05
dodger__it'll likely ask you for a password which your cable company should have given you04:05
dodger__you can configure the router from there... alternatively, you can do the unthinkable04:05
dodger__and call your cable companies' tech support04:06
dodger__tell me it's not comcast?04:06
valorieoh, it's comcast all right04:06
dodger__how did i know04:06
valorieI wonder if that passw is written down somewhere....04:06
dodger__i just moved to north carolina and thought finally i'll be away from comcast04:06
dodger__turns out it's time warner here04:06
dodger__so it'll be comcast soon04:06
valoriei think I bought and installed the cable modem myself though04:06
valoriethey are the Evil Empire as far as I'm concerned04:07
dodger__oh no doubt04:07
valoriewhy do we Murricans put up with 'em04:07
dodger__DesignerX: did that solve your problems?04:07
dodger__valorie: because congress allows for regional monopolies :P04:08
valorieright, and we put up with that, too04:08
dodger__that's a whole different story04:08
dodger__don't even get me started04:08
dodger__lol04:08
DesignerXdodger__: No, I was on this page & when I add a program it doesnt get added to the list. I get cant write config .. so much be permisstion error somewhere04:08
valorieok, I'm going to try to reset it again04:08
valoriesee y'all on the other side of that04:09
dodger__DesignerX:  i don't have any better ideas than adding it there, sorry :/04:09
dodger__it's time for me to go to bed04:09
DesignerXnp. I will see what i can do with permisstions :)04:09
dodger__way past time, actually, but who's counting :P04:09
dodger__nite all04:09
DesignerXlol .. GN04:10
DesignerXshoudnt everything under /home/USER/ be owned by the user & NOT ROOT ?04:11
valorieso same with the modem reset04:36
valorieI don't want to call comcast until I roll back a kernel version04:36

valoriewell, damn, rolling back the kernel did nothing05:13
dennis_I installed Kubuntu 13.10 for a friend. He needs to format an SD card. Is there a GUI formating utility for Kubuntu? Disk Utility sounds good but he cannot find it using Moen.05:13
dennis_sp Moen/Muon05:17
valoriedennis, when he plugs in the card, does a menu pop up?05:19
valorieone of the options should be to format it, I think05:19
MonoDenzadennis_: KDE Partition Manager is pretty good05:19
MonoDenzaif you need exfat support,  sudo apt-get install exfat-fuse exfat-utils05:20
dennis_ValicekB: No format in the pop-up05:20
dennis_Oops sorry ValicekB05:20
dennis_valorie: no pop-up05:21
dennis_MonoDenza: He doesn't do command line. I am 600 miles away. Gotta be all GUI for him. I will have him try KDE Partition Manager05:22
MonoDenzadennis_: tell him to install muon, not muon discover, but muon package manager, it's one step between command line apt-get and muon discover05:24
MonoDenzait's quite useful imo05:24
dennis_MonoDenza: Yes, there are several Muon apps installed. Muon package manager he can handle. Is disk-utility a gnome only package? I run opensuse and haven't worked in ubuntu very much.05:28
MonoDenzaidk... but it should run even if it is GTK05:29
MonoDenzaKubuntu still has gtk libraries, and an engine for GTK05:29
dennis_any idea if I need to have him set up another software repository?05:30
valorieI wouldn't think so05:34

tsiroskubuntu 14.04, 32bit, dell inspiron 1121 (netbook), samsung ssd, installing from usb made with unetbootin. "try kubuntu" results in a loop "sdc asking for cache data failed/assuming drive cache write through"06:03
tsirosoops i had it on 'ata' mode, not ahci.06:04
tsirosnope, same thing. "install kubuntu" gives the "busy" cursor and just stays there. going to a terminal and reading dmesg, again stuck in a loop with sdc and its write through cache assumption06:09

rohanis there some command which allows me to completely remove unity after installing "kubuntu-desktop"?19:24
BluesKajrohan, sudo apt-get purge ubuntu-desktop19:28
rohanBluesKaj: will that also remove dependencies? i thought that only removed the one package19:28
BluesKajpurging normally removes appropriated dependencies as well, rohan , afiak19:32

rohandisplay or login manager, whichever word is appropriate :)19:33
BluesKajrohan, there is a pure kde tutorial, but it's outdated19:33
