JaZZyCooLguys anyone04:41
JaZZyCooLI would highly appreciate your help04:42
JaZZyCooLplease04:42
JaZZyCooLguys anyone04:43
JaZZyCooL?04:43
JaZZyCooLguys I really need help please anyone04:46
JaZZyCooL??04:49
JaZZyCooLguys please anyone04:52
JaZZyCooLI am really in ineed04:52
DarthFrogwhat resolution do you want?04:54
DarthFrogAnd what video card do you have?04:55
JaZZyCooLI have nvidia04:56
JaZZyCooLgt650m04:56
JaZZyCooLand I want resolution of 1366x76804:57
JaZZyCooLbut right now I m in live mode though04:57
DarthFrogAh.  Live with it.04:57
JaZZyCooLso will it set to the proper resolution once I install the OS04:57
DarthFrogIf you had installed Kubuntu, you could have installed the proprietary Nvidia drivers and choose the resolution you want.  Not from a live CD though.04:58
JaZZyCooLok04:59
JaZZyCooLone last question04:59
JaZZyCooLare there any problems with the installing of nvidia drives and should I install the one that says recommended04:59
DarthFrogAnswers are $1, correct answers are $10.  Dumb looks are still free.04:59
JaZZyCooLlol05:00
DarthFrogit should work.05:00
JaZZyCooLbecause I had some problems in the past so just making sure05:00
DarthFrogThat's a free answer. :-)05:00
JaZZyCooLlol05:00
DarthFrogA GTX 650 is a pretty recent card.  The 331 drivers should work fine with it.05:01
DarthFrogRun "nvidia-xconfig" after installing the drivers, though.05:01
JaZZyCooLalso I am re-installing kubuntu at the place where my xubuntu is right now05:01
JaZZyCooLshould I keep the same /, swap area I had for xubuntu and press install05:01
DarthFrogYou don't have to re-install.  Just install the "kubuntu-desktop" package and choose which one you want at log in time.05:02
DarthFrogReally, you don't have to re-install.05:02
JaZZyCooLwell I dont want xubuntu05:02
JaZZyCooLso05:02
DarthFrogSo don't choose it at login.05:02
JaZZyCooLi want kubuntu instead05:02
JaZZyCooLwell I have xubuntu 13.10 right now05:03
JaZZyCooLand its support is ending in july05:03
DarthFrogRe-install if you want but you don't have to.  The underlying system is the same, the difference is in the GUi.05:03
JaZZyCooLso switching to kubuntu 14.1005:03
DarthFrog14.0405:03
JaZZyCooLyeah my bad05:03
JaZZyCooLlol05:03
DarthFrog"sudo do-release-upgrade"05:04
DarthFrogThen install "kubuntu-desktop".  Bingo, you'll be running Kubuntu 14.04.  Or Xubuntu 14.04 if you wish.05:04
JaZZyCooLwell so just writing that statement would upgrade my OS05:05
TheFakeazneD525yes05:05
JaZZyCooLto 14.0405:05
TheFakeazneD525not instantly05:05
TheFakeazneD525but yes05:05
TheFakeazneD525also, the more packages installed05:05
TheFakeazneD525the more time it takes05:05
JaZZyCooLwhat do u mean by not instantly05:05
TheFakeazneD525JaZZyCooL: it has to work a bit05:06
TheFakeazneD525so don't hold your breath after you run it05:06
DarthFrogTakes a while to configure, download and install.05:06
TheFakeazneD525because it upgrades ALL packages05:06
TheFakeazneD525and does some reconfiguration05:06
DarthFrogYou just sit back and watch.05:06
JaZZyCooLu mean it will take time to install and download?05:06
TheFakeazneD525JaZZyCooL: yes05:06
JaZZyCooLok gotcha05:06
TheFakeazneD525and DO NOT, for any reason shut down the computer05:06
JaZZyCooLthanks for the help guys05:06
TheFakeazneD525it will wreck your system05:06
TheFakeazneD525especially if it's in  the "unpacking" stage05:06
DarthFrogGood luck.  & Have fun.05:07
JaZZyCooLsaving me from the hassle of reinstalling the OS05:07
JaZZyCooLspecially05:07
DarthFrogExactly.05:07
TheFakeazneD525indeed05:07
JaZZyCooLEFI dualboot installation05:07
JaZZyCooLis sucking05:07
DarthFrogOnce you've installed, you never have to re-install.05:07
DarthFrogEven to switch between K/X/L/Ubuntu.05:07
JaZZyCooLok gotcha and when I want to switch to KDE all I have to do is switch at the login screen?05:07
DarthFrogYes.  You will have a box with the choices available to you.  Choose KDE.05:08
DarthFrogIf you've installed kubuntu-desktop, that is.05:08
TheFakeazneD525Oh yeah05:08
TheFakeazneD525the kubuntu-desktop package does NOT provide all KDE apps05:08
TheFakeazneD525for all KDE apps, install the kde-full package05:09
JaZZyCooLok gotcha05:09
TheFakeazneD525but it does swap out lightdm for kdm, which may be problematic05:09
JaZZyCooLwell I dont want kde apps I am guessing as I all want is a different look to my desktop05:09
TheFakeazneD525JaZZyCooL: no prob05:09
TheFakeazneD525I like plasma desktop, it's very clean, and easy to configure05:09
TheFakeazneD525Plasma desktop is the name of KDE's desktop environment, btw05:10
JaZZyCooLyeah so the problem u told of switching the lightdm to KDM05:10
JaZZyCooLhow can I solve that05:10
TheFakeazneD525JaZZyCooL: hmm, sudo dpkg-reconfigure kdm05:10
TheFakeazneD525and then choose lightdm05:10
TheFakeazneD525wait, lemme test that05:10
DarthFrogOn the other hand, there's nothing wrong with kdm.05:11
TheFakeazneD525DarthFrog: it was a bit memory intensive for me...05:11
TheFakeazneD525but yeah, nothing wrong with it though05:11
JaZZyCooLok05:13
JaZZyCooLso sudo dpkg-reconfigure kdm would solve my problem?05:13
DarthFrogWhat problem?05:13
JaZZyCooLthe lightdm or KDM05:14
JaZZyCooLwhatever thefake05:14
JaZZyCooLtold05:14
DarthFrogThat's not a problem. :-)05:14
JaZZyCooLoh ok...lol05:14
JaZZyCooLthanks guys I highly appreciate your help05:14
DarthFrogIt would allow you to choose which DM is used.05:14
JaZZyCooLoh ok05:14
DarthFrogIf you prefer LightDM, you could choose it.05:14
DarthFrogPrefer, I said.05:15
JaZZyCooLok05:15
JaZZyCooLthanks a lot guys u saved me today i highly appreciate your help05:15
DarthFrogGo forth and have fun!05:15
JaZZyCooLthanks brother05:16

OsBinHDhello any one tryed install kali tools on kubuntu 14.04?11:07
BluesKajOsBinHD, do you mean use Kali to draw Escher-like tilings, infinite knots, frieze patterns etc?11:16
DesignerXhi, I get static noise  my speakers. Not sure if it's some settings problem or need a new driver ? it's using the on board Audio Plug11:18
OsBinHD<BluesKaj> na lad kali linux  tools :D11:19
BluesKajDesignerX, check alsamixer to make sure you aren't overloading the speaker inputs, 80%  alsa level is usually enough for speakers that have their own volume ctrl11:23
DesignerXkk ty11:24
DesignerXI see QasMixer  is that it ?11:25
BluesKajtype alsamixer in the terminal11:25
DesignerXkk11:26
DesignerXI put all output to under the max but still the same noise11:27
DesignerXnoise is on even if nothing is playing11:27
BluesKajis it constant noise or intermittent?11:28
DesignerXconstant11:28
DesignerXtried difernt headsets & even the Monitor speakers have the same problem11:29
BluesKajcrackling, buzzing or hum11:29
BluesKaj?11:29
DesignerXcrackling noise11:31
DesignerXlike noise from an OLD tv11:31
BluesKajmonitor speakers, self powered or connected to an amp?11:31
DesignerXself powered buit in the screen11:32
DesignerX& same noise with headphones11:32
BluesKajis this the onboard audio chip or a separate pci sound card ?11:33
DesignerXonboard11:33
DesignerXonboard for the headphones  & HDMI for the screen11:33
=== naught102 is now known as naught101
BluesKajok what about the hdmi , how's the sound there since it's a digital signal11:34
DesignerXwill double check it now after I used that terminal audio controller11:35
DesignerXok, HDMI is ok  but headphones are noisy11:37
DesignerXmm so why HDMI working fine but headphones are not ?  I will dig around to see what I can find, if you got some tips dont be shy to share :)11:40
BluesKajseems you have a bad analog connection on the soundcard since the digital signal is fine11:43
BluesKajor there's a device nearby transmitting interference signals picked up by the the analog preamaplifier on the soundcard11:44
=== bob__ is now known as MoonBob

=== Haudegen is now known as Guest36276
XimoHow can I detect the problem?19:19
