[00:02] <ddelony> !composite
[00:02] <ubotu> Compiz-Fusion (and the older Compiz and Beryl) are window managers that employ the "composite" extension of X to draw windows using graphics cards' 3D hardware. They can additionally provide "desktop special effects" (such as the "cube") by means of plug-ins. Join #compiz-fusion for help and support with advanced features. See also « /msg ubotu compiz » and « /msg ubotu effects »
[00:05] <savetheWorld> Anyone here know the command to start a second X server up ?   it begins with "startx" but I cant recall the rest.
[00:07] <genii> You have to specify another default term like :1 since :0 will be in use obviously. The exact syntax however I forget at the moment
[00:08] <dbglt> -- :1 I think
[00:08] <savetheWorld> genii:  thanks
[00:11] <savetheWorld> startx -- :1 seems to work

[00:13] <FaiDillinGer> can someone please help me set up my wifi lan with a rt61 chipset ???  i fucked up with knetwork manager, and now it wont show my any wifi networks
[00:13] <FaiDillinGer> and i am using an rj45 cable right now
[00:13] <genii> FaiDillinGer: Remove any entries you may have made for it in /etc/network/interfaces and then knetworkmanager will not think it is a manually configured device
[00:14] <FaiDillinGer> genii : thx, but do i also have to remove things related to the 'lo' interface ?

[00:16] <ddelony> How do I deactivate my proprietary video card driver/
[00:17] <FaiDillinGer> genii: thanks mate it worked ... but i got another problem now lol
[00:18] <ddelony> Never mind, found the menu option.
[00:18] <genii> FaiDillveinGer: Well, ask the channel and see who may know the solution :)
[00:18] <FaiDillinGer> well my problem is that my wifi connection will not work for more than 5 minute (rt61 chipset). has anyone been experiencing the same problems ???
[00:19] <FaiDillinGer> i know this problem came after a driver or something was upgraded
[00:19] <BluesKaj> ddelony, to uninstall it properly, it depends how you installed it ,
[00:19] <genii> FaiDillinGer: Actually I've been having the same problem but with a realtek 8187, no solution I've found yet. Using a pc card Atheros for the moment
[00:20] <aharoon> does kubuntu 8.04 has proplems or i can use witout any fear
[00:21] <BluesKaj> FaiDillinGer, low signal output , perhaps ?
[00:21] <blizzzek-kde4> gn8
[00:21] <genii> FaiDillinGer: What I know is NOT causing it: packet size differences between adapter/router/modem,  power savings settings on the adapter, whether wep/wap/open
[00:21] <genii> wpa*
[00:22] <BluesKaj> aharoon, nothing is totally without problems but I've heard that the latest RC is pretty stable.
[00:22] <FaiDillinGer> BluesKaj: i dont think so. the router is just 2 meters away, but i got my brothers computer with the same pci card, thats under windows and not experiencing this problem
[00:22] <arcticpenguin380> are there other journalling fs
[00:22] <FaiDillinGer> genii: its a wpa network
[00:22] <BluesKaj> hmm ... ok
[00:23] <genii> FaiDillinGer: The same disconnect was happening for me no matter what authentication the access point used
[00:23] <FaiDillinGer> genii: exactly, i tried wep but i have the same problem
[00:23] <aharoon> ok i meant kubuntu 7.10 working fine to me but i think 8.04 has kde4 instead of kde3 so i wanted to use it but i afraid of face proplems of rc
[00:23] <genii> FaiDillinGer: If the adapter uses the sky or sky2 driver it may be somehow part of the problem
[00:24] <FaiDillinGer> sky ?? i have no clue what this is
[00:24] <genii> FaiDillinGer: But as I said, I have not yet tracked down exactly the issue and have resorted for now to using another adapter
[00:25] <FaiDillinGer> genii: well i am also using a cable for the moment, but it is in the middle of my room and i know i will step on it and fall at some moment lol
[00:25] <arcticpenguin380> is kde4 meant to be adopted now?
[00:26] <Dr_willis> arcticpenguin380,  i dont think so. Its more of a developers - testbed
[00:26] <arcticpenguin380> like mac os 10 was?
[00:26] <soldanr> Hello Everybody! I have been struglin for the last 3 days with booting problems. Runing XP on SATA, Kubuntu on 20GB IDE Master and one 250MB IDE slave (added after installation). On the boot with GRUB I get the famous NTLDR missing, cause it is most likely trying to use the slave IDE instead of the SATA disk to find XP. I do thave the options of hd0, hd1, hd2 on grub but tried them all.
[00:28] <soldanr> Does having Cable Select on the IDE causes that?
[00:28] <arcticpenguin380> !ntfs

[00:29] <arcticpenguin380> so when will kde 4 be meant for production then?
[00:29] <soldanr> ok, will try
[00:29] <genii> soldanr: Slave in middle, master on end of cable
[00:29] <soldanr> tahat is what i have
[00:30] <genii> soldanr: Then instead check to make sure both have CS on, or else set manually 1 to master 1 to slave
[00:30] <soldanr> have done that too, :)
[00:31] <DillinGer> is there a way to update the rt61 driver ?
[00:33] <soldanr> i am going to check the links guys, brb... thanks

[00:53] <aharoon> i used it and it some tcp and arp packets what is this mean
[00:53] <aharoon> it showed tcp and arp
[00:54] <genii> aharoon: If you don't know what it's showing to you then most likely it's not a program that you have a need for
[00:54] <Daisuke_Ido> uh huh
[00:55] <aharoon> ok im new to linux sorry
[00:55] <Daisuke_Ido> that applies to any os anywhere
[00:56] <vsudilov> anyone know a way to make konsole -truely- transparent, as opposed to this 'transparent-to-the-desktop' bull?
[00:56] <aharoon> i thought its a program for stopping people who use programs for netcut and these stuff
[00:57] <genii> aharoon: Mostly it's used by network admins to monitor packets on their systems
[00:57] <aharoon> ok thanks
[00:57] <Dr_willis> vsudilov,  you have to use compiz for that.
[00:57] <ahmos> Hi, i've installed superkaramba from repos. but i can't open themes that i've installed..
[00:57] <vsudilov> Dr_willis: All right, I'm using it
[00:57] <ahmos> so any help plz?
[00:58] <Dr_willis> compiz can set arbitary windows transparent to different levels with some key combo/module.
[00:58] <Dr_willis> !superkaramba
[00:58] <ubotu> superkaramba is an application that gives you interactive eye-candy on your desktop. To get themes for it, head over to http://kde-look.org
[00:58] <vsudilov> I'll look in their gui config
[00:58] <Dr_willis> Hmm..  ahmos  ive never had good luck with karamba, or superkaramba
[00:58] <ahmos> me too like it seems
[00:59] <DillinGer> genii: i didnt manage to make ti work
[00:59] <genii> DillinGer: :( I'm out of immediate ideas then, apologies
[00:59] <DillinGer> genii: np dude, just to let you know
[01:00] <snarkster> intelikey: any luck or to boring?
[01:00]  * genii hands out another round of coffe... er beers
[01:00] <snarkster> beer please

[01:01] <snarkster> later dudes
[01:01] <Daisuke_Ido> i'll stick to coffee
[01:01] <vsudilov> hm anyone know the compiz option to make konsole transparent?
[01:01] <genii> BluesKaj: Watching the Leafs game and drinking a Labatt 50 atm
[01:02] <Daisuke_Ido> it's not in compiz, it's in konsole's settings
[01:02] <Daisuke_Ido> that has nothing to do with compiz whatsoever
[01:03] <vsudilov> no -- that only gives it pseudo-transparency with the desktop
[01:03] <vsudilov> but not transparency with any other windows
[01:03] <vsudilov> ie, I can't read this irc chat while using the "transparent" konsole
[01:03] <Dr_willis> compiz can make anything transparent - to different levels. :)
[01:04] <Dr_willis> konsole has a 'pesudo-transparency' feature that shows the existing wallpaper.
[01:04] <vsudilov> exactly, which is useless O.o
[01:04] <starenka> hullo
[01:04] <Dr_willis> vsudilov,  or usefull...
[01:04] <seth> vsudilov, start konsole with the --real-transparency switch
[01:04] <Dr_willis> I find your true transparency useless. :) since it makes stuff hard to read.
[01:04] <starenka> hi anybody can help dig out kde4
[01:04] <seth> vsudilov, i.e. "konsole --real-transparency"
[01:04] <Dr_willis> a special switch! :) heh - there ya go.
[01:04] <vsudilov> seth: lemme try that now
[01:05] <Dr_willis> I wonder if some extra X features need tobe enabled for that.
[01:05] <vsudilov> seth: sweet, that was easy!
[01:05] <seth> ^_^
[01:05] <starenka> hey :)
[01:05] <starenka> sbdy can help?
[01:06] <Daisuke_Ido> Dr_willis: it would appear that no one actually *uses* the real transparency stuff, it's like geek street cred for screenshot artists
[01:06] <starenka> added kde4 src to source list
[01:06] <seth> starenka, KDE4 is in #kubuntu-kde4
[01:06] <Daisuke_Ido> starenka: try in #kubuntu-kde4
[01:06] <seth> hehe
[01:06] <starenka> oh sry then
[01:06] <starenka> havent seen the channel
[01:06] <seth> read /topic for great justice
[01:06] <starenka> rah
[01:07] <starenka> ohkay
[01:07] <starenka> try before cry, right?
[01:08] <mathieu_> up me
[01:10] <vsudilov> hm -- can't seem to append the option --real-transparency to konsole when it launches from a key-binding
[01:11] <biovore> vsudilov: I made a kde menu entry for it.. and tied the short cut key to it..
[01:11] <vsudilov> right, I have that too. But, it still doesn't use the --real-transparency option
[01:12] <vsudilov> biovore: it uses this option with your configuration?
[01:12] <deuryte> does anyone know the master comman line to fix a crashed kubuntu desktop ??
[01:13] <seth> deuryte, if kwin just died, Alt + F2 >> kwin
[01:13] <deuryte> what is kwin ??
[01:13] <seth> deuryte, other than that you'll have to be more specific on what you mean by crashed desktop
[01:14] <tekteen> deuryte: the k window manager
[01:14] <genii> deuryte: There is no "master command line" something that will make everything magically fine again. The first thing to finding your solution is to have more information on how/why it crashed in the first place and then proceed from there
[01:15] <vsudilov> GAGGGEGAHG why are simple GUI tweaks so difficult ???
[01:15] <deuryte> seth: i went and changed a setting in the bios to start my sata in "raid" mode, all went well, but i decided to reset it back to "ide" mode, then it would only boot to a command line mode. no kde
[01:15] <biovore> vsudilov: I made a new menu entry (basicly copied the kconsole entry already there) and append the --real-transparency option.  Then I tie that menu entry to a short cut key (Ctrl-Shift-K here)
[01:16] <biovore> vsudilov: The command for my menu entry is  konsole --real-transparency
[01:16] <neo22> Is there compositing in hardy heron?
[01:16] <biovore> KDE4 has it built in..
[01:16] <neo22> Hmmm
[01:16] <neo22> After upgrading to hardy.
[01:17] <osama>  plz want to know how to create a cd with mulitiple content as vedio and text with nice menu?
[01:17] <osama> [03:15] [Error] plz: Unknown command.
[01:17] <deuryte> seth: i even tried " su -i/etc/iniy.d/kdm"   didnt work after command "startx"..
[01:17] <neo22> kde4 is saying it's not finding xcomposite or something
[01:17] <biovore> nvida card? you have composite enable in xorg.conf
[01:17] <neo22> ati
[01:17] <neo22> oh, did my xorg.conf get reset?
[01:17] <neo22> ugh.
[01:17] <deuryte> seth: it seems it wont recognize my ati 9200se vid card..
[01:19] <vsudilov> biovore: Thanks, that trick works on my machine too. Funny that you have to make a dummy konsole shortcut...
[01:19]  * genii hands seth the Advil
[01:19] <seth> genii, ?
[01:20] <genii> seth: Headache remedy, I suspect deuryte's issue will occupy you for a while ;)
[01:20] <seth> deuryte, "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" should get you back on track
[01:20] <deuryte> thanks seth:
[01:20] <seth> if you're just not getting into KDE but you're booting properly
[01:20] <deuryte> brb will try
[01:21] <seth> deuryte, when it asks you to choose a driver, try the radeon driver
[01:21] <seth> if that doesn't get you in, let me know what /var/log/Xorg.0.log has to say
[01:22] <BluesKaj> too late, my suggestion was going to be the default restricted driver in system settings/advanced
[01:23] <BluesKaj> most lower end radeons will benefit from the older default restricted driver
[01:24] <seth> BluesKaj, yeah, I just figured try the lowest denominator first and we can worry about bumping it up once he can get into kde
[01:24] <genii> seth: I suspect he is getting a busybox since he was messing with switching from raid to ide in his bios
[01:24] <genii> eg: initramfs fallthrough
[01:26] <seth> arg :P if that's true i'm not going to be of any help. was just going off what he said above, that there was an error about the ati card
[01:27] <genii> [20:15:30] <deuryte> seth: i went and changed a setting in the bios to start my sata in "raid" mode, all went well, but i decided to reset it back to "ide" mode, then it would only boot to a command line mode. no kde
[01:27] <genii> ^
[01:28] <seth> deuryte>	seth: it seems it wont recognize my ati 9200se vid card..
[01:29] <genii> seth: I think he may be confused LOL
[01:29] <MGrunde> I'm having trouble with one of my reiserfs drives, reiserfsck returns "Bad root block 0. (--rebuild-tree did not complete)"
[01:30] <genii> seth: At any rate if he has actual shell and it's just complaining about some video issue hopefully it will progress
[01:30] <seth> genii, yeah, we'll see

[01:38] <CaptObvious> how do you set the resolution on boot?  like the kubuntu loading bar screen res?
[01:39] <genii> hoax: to switch to a channel use /j #channelname
[01:40] <genii> CaptObvious: Something like a kernel option vga=<something>
[01:40] <CaptObvious> I did that already and it's still 1280x1024
[01:41] <genii> CaptObvious: Then offhand no idea

[02:21] <batis610> in kde4, how can i change the fact that i havn't icons of all oppened windows in all desktops in the current desktop panel?
[02:22] <Daisuke_Laptop> batis610: ask in #kubuntu-kde4
[02:27] <belorix> Hi, how can i get desktop-effects or compiz
[02:28] <barbara_> can I add locations to the system menu that is on the panel?
[02:28] <barbara_> I want to add my documents
[02:29] <crackhead_25> --how do i set the QTDIR variable ???
[02:30] <CaptObvious> kubuntu for some reason isn't starting up kde on boot, how do I tell it to?
[02:35] <tinin> Hi, I need to get some .deb packages to install kubuntu in a machine without internet, How could I do it?
[02:35] <dsmith_> biovore: What happened to MD LUG?
[02:36] <biovore> which LUG?
[02:36] <CaptObvious> tinin: USB key
[02:36] <dsmith_> Ubuntu MD

[02:36] <biovore> not sure..
[02:36] <biovore> I hear stuff on the email reflector but I never see anyone in the IRC channel
[02:36] <dsmith_> i saw the message from Craig..
[02:36] <belorix> how can i get the clock to come outof military time
[02:36] <tinin> I mean how could I download packages with dependencies to a usb key? CaptObvious
[02:37] <tinin> I'm trying to use a Virtualbox to see wich packages I need
[02:38] <Dr_willis> belorix,  right click on the clock - 'time and date settings' set it to use am/pm mode.
[02:38] <tinin> with a default kubuntu
[02:38] <Dr_willis> and YES.. i think it should default to am/pm also. :)
[02:38] <CaptObvious> if you don't know how to put files onto a USB key, you have no business running linux
[02:38] <dsmith_> belorix: date & time format
[02:38] <tinin> ok
[02:38] <maduser> why not military time?
[02:38] <Dr_willis> You need to restart the clock.
[02:38] <Dr_willis> maduser,  because 90% of the clocks in my house are NOT set to military time.. so why should this one.
[02:39] <dsmith_> maduser: some ppl canot add 12 to anything
[02:39] <dsmith_> lol
[02:39] <Dr_willis> and given the target audiance of ubuntu/kubuntu -  - Keep things simple.
[02:39] <maduser> true
[02:39] <biovore> stop using those 4 letter words.. MATH.. evil
[02:39] <dsmith_> well with flying I have to know UTC
[02:39] <maduser> linux, however is not for retards
[02:39] <CaptObvious> right, Dr_willis
[02:39] <CaptObvious> the real issue
[02:39] <tinin> woah  Apt On CD is what I was searching...
[02:39] <genii> Dr_willis: You have me intrigued as to the other 10% of your clocks now
[02:39] <CaptObvious> I have kubuntu on my PS3
[02:39] <CaptObvious> default install
[02:39] <maduser> nice
[02:39] <CaptObvious> it just doesn't seem to be launching kdm on boot
[02:40] <dsmith_> genii: heheh
[02:40] <CaptObvious> I can launch it fine with startx
[02:40] <CaptObvious> but I have to log in via the console first
[02:40] <Dr_willis> genii,  i'm into shortwave/ham radio. :) some of them are set to UTC. :0
[02:40] <Dr_willis> genii,  then ya got the clock thats made of ball-bearings going around on a ramp. :)
[02:40] <genii> Dr_willis: Aaaaaah Ok :)
[02:40] <biovore> same here.. I use qsstv for slowscan TV :-P
[02:40] <tinin> Can you have 3d graphics in ps3 CaptObvious?
[02:40] <CaptObvious> tinin: no
[02:41] <tinin> But is it possible?
[02:41] <CaptObvious> no
[02:42] <CaptObvious> Dr_willis: /etc/X11/default-display-manager is set to /usr/bin/kdm
[02:42] <xevious> i just installed artsbuilder in 7.10 and it crashes whenever i try to execute
[02:42] <CaptObvious> it doesn't error or anything, it just doesn't seem to try to launch it
[02:42] <tinin> http://kotaku.com/346073/ps3-megabox-homebrew-project-is-linux-for-commitment+phobes CaptObvious
[02:42] <CaptObvious> there's a kdm in /etc/init.d
[02:43] <tinin> 3D Linux gaming
[02:43] <tinin> Emulation of games of almost all the platforms
[02:44] <tinin> Possibility of launching PS3 games directly from MegaBOX
[02:44] <CaptObvious> tinin: I don't care
[02:45] <tinin> sorry, I'm want to buy a ps3, I'd like to know how well kubuntu would run on it
[02:46] <CaptObvious> very well if I could just get this working
[02:46] <genii> CaptObvious: If you do sudo /etc/init.d/kdm restart               does it give any useful information?
[02:46] <genii> Or does it start kdm?
[02:46] <CaptObvious> sed: -e expression #1, char 32: unterminated 's' command
[02:47] <biovore> sed -e s/thing/replace/
[02:47] <biovore> needs a / on the end probably
[02:47] <CaptObvious> huh?
[02:47] <MGrunde> Does dd_rhelp/dd_rescue copy the entire partition, freespace and all, or does it only copy files?
[02:47] <genii> maybe script error in the kdm startup
[02:47] <CaptObvious> should I just remove then reinstall kdm?
[02:48] <CaptObvious> or is it just the init.d script that's broken?
[02:49] <genii> CaptObvious: If biovore is right may be some break in the init.d script. But perhaps try the: sudo apt-get remove --purge kdm;sudo apt-get install kdm              then try again starting it
[02:50] <CaptObvious> dammit - where is repository info kept?
[02:50] <CaptObvious> it wants the CD and I want to remove that from sources
[02:50] <genii> Usually in /etc/apt/sourcs.list
[02:51] <genii> but the ps3 kubuntu may vary from the usual
[02:51] <CaptObvious> ta
[02:51] <genii> typo from me. /etc/apt/sources.list                <- was missing an "e" in sources
[02:52] <CaptObvious> package kdm is not available but is referenced by another source
[02:52] <tinin> Can I run ubuntu ppc in a virtual machine in my 86 pc?
[02:53] <CaptObvious> heh, there's no network interfaces defined
[02:53] <CaptObvious> yet there were before
[02:53] <CaptObvious> lspci returns nothing
[02:53] <CaptObvious> like, absolutely nothing
[02:56] <biovore> CaptObvious: PCI sounds broken..
[02:57] <genii> Weird
[02:57] <genii> I don't know anything much about the ps3 kubuntu
[02:57] <biovore> tinin: maybe.. have to use qemu to emulate a PPC platform.. Not sure if it would work though..
[02:58] <Dr_willis> Other then the fact tht i see a LOT of people asking questions about it - due to their problems. :P)
[02:58] <CaptObvious> okay, networking is up :P
[02:59] <tinin> biovore thanx, I was trying with virtualbox, as it seems easier. I just need to download some text to speech ppc packages to use with a live cd, but I need to take care of all dependencies
[03:04] <CaptObvious> okay I got kdm reinstall
[03:04] <CaptObvious> ed
[03:04] <CaptObvious> same error
[03:04] <CaptObvious> is there any way to regenerate the script in /etc/init.d?
[03:04] <CaptObvious> or could I just copy it from another machine?
[03:07] <CaptObvious> okay, new error now
[03:07] <CaptObvious> on /etc/init.d/kdm restart
[03:07] <CaptObvious> cannot create /var/run/kdm/Xaccess
[03:09] <barbara_> can I add locations to the system menu that is on the panel?
[03:10] <barbara_> CaptObvious: use sudo
[03:11] <CaptObvious> then I get the sed error
[03:11] <CaptObvious> sed: -e expression #1, char 32: unterminated 's' command
[03:11] <CaptObvious> that's after copying the init script from another machine
[03:12] <Manad> if I have a Samba share, would Windows clients be able to read shares that are on non-NTFS drives?
[03:12] <CaptObvious> samba is a protocol in itself
[03:12] <Manad> so it's just like FTP or HTTP then? I don't have to worry about the filesystem?
[03:13] <hydrogen> roight
[03:13] <CaptObvious> screw it
[03:13] <CaptObvious> I just added startx into my .profile
[03:14] <Manad> ok then, question 2...how can I format an NTFS drive and be able to use it in linux? What tool does this in KDE suite?
[03:14] <Manad> err
[03:14] <Manad> I meant, repartition it as ext3
[03:14] <Manad> I know I can mount NTFS drives
[03:14] <CaptObvious> Manad: ext2fs -j /dev/sda1
[03:15] <CaptObvious> obviously replace /dev/sda1 with the drive you want to wipe
[03:15] <Manad> gotcha
[03:15] <CaptObvious> the -j means ext3 instead of ext2
[03:16] <Manad> ext3 is what all the cool people use, right?
[03:16] <CaptObvious> it's the norm
[03:19] <hydrogen> ext3 is ext2 + journal
[03:20] <Eko_Hermiyanto> hi.. I have Ubuntu and install KDE in my Ubuntu, how I can upgrade my KDE into the latest one?
[03:20] <Eko_Hermiyanto> i have type apt-get upgrade
[03:20] <Eko_Hermiyanto> but result nothing
[03:20] <NightBird> Eko_Hermiyanto: do you mean install kde 4?
[03:21] <NightBird> !kde4
[03:21] <Manad> CaptObvious: "ext2fs" command not found
[03:21] <ubotu> KDE 4.0 is the latest major release of the K Desktop Environment. KDE 4.0 packages can be found at http://kubuntu.org/announcements/kde-4.0.php - More information can be found at http://www.kde.org/announcements/4.0/ - Support in #kubuntu-kde4
[03:21] <CaptObvious> that's what it is in gentoo, not sure in kubuntu
[03:21] <Manad> you sure that exists in Kubuntu by default? I have 7.10
[03:21] <Manad> ah
[03:21] <Manad> ok
[03:21] <hydrogen> no it isn't..
[03:21] <NightBird> kubuntu 7.10 defaults to kde3.5
[03:21] <NickPresta> Eko_Hermiyanto, do you want to use KDE 4.0.1? Personally, I would still have 3.5.8 around.
[03:21] <hydrogen> use mkfs.ext3
[03:22] <NightBird> you can set it up to be able to run kde4 as well
[03:22] <hydrogen> or mke2fs
[03:22] <daoudi5> hello
[03:22] <NightBird> which should be that first link
[03:22] <hydrogen> ext2fs has never been a command on any distro
[03:22] <Manad> think you need 8.04 for kde4. But I'd recommend waiting, that's what all the sites say (even KDE themselves), it's very early in terms of features.
[03:22] <Eko_Hermiyanto> NightBird: yes
[03:22] <Eko_Hermiyanto> NickPresta: I love to get it
[03:22] <Manad> hydro: mke2fs /dev/sda5           ??
[03:22] <NickPresta> Manad, you can get KDE 4.0.1 in Gutsy (and it will be available by default in 8.04)
[03:22]  * NightBird uses kde4 without problems
[03:22] <Manad> I meant mkfs.ext3
[03:22] <hydrogen> mke2fs -j /dev/sda5 or mkfs.ext3 /dev/sda5
[03:22] <NickPresta> Eko_Hermiyanto, check out the !kde4 factoid.
[03:23] <NickPresta> !tell Eko_Hermiyanto about kde4
[03:23] <CaptObvious> I have a weird problem with my machine with a radeon 9000
[03:23] <CaptObvious> it's way too bright, like the gamma is too high
[03:23] <CaptObvious> the livecd is the same
[03:23] <NightBird> !kde4 Eko_Hermiyanto
[03:23] <NightBird> well bah
[03:23] <NightBird> oh well
[03:24] <NightBird> it's earlier in the chat though
[03:24] <NickPresta> NightBird, I asked ubotu to PM him the KDE4 factoid :)
[03:24] <NightBird> ah
[03:25] <NightBird> the only thing I really miss in kde4 is for something to display the current cpu and ram usage...
[03:25] <NightBird> I'm sure there's something  somewhere for it, but I haven't found it yet...
[03:25] <hydrogen> ksysguard has been ported
[03:25] <hydrogen> or
[03:25] <NickPresta> NightBird, I would just use a SuperKaramba widget. I believe it has (or is getting) a KDE4 update
[03:25] <hydrogen> alt-f2-> show system activity
[03:26] <hydrogen> eh
[03:26] <NightBird> hydrogen: I mean something to appear in the task bar :P
[03:26] <hydrogen> why would you use superkaramba?
[03:26] <Manad> hydrogen, the mkfs.ext3 command finished, but the drive does not show up in "Disks & Filesystems" as ext3 yet, it's empty. Do I need to reboot the OS?
[03:26] <Eko_Hermiyanto> NightBird: oh thanks, i get a way to install the new kde into my ubuntu. thanks dude
[03:26] <CaptObvious> real men use top
[03:26] <hydrogen> theres a system monitor plasmoid
[03:26] <Goop2> is there a good synth with a GUI that works with ALSA?
[03:26] <hydrogen> but its still in early development
[03:26] <hydrogen> hanging out in playground
[03:27] <NightBird> CaptObvious: yeah, but I already have like 4 konsoles open already >_>
[03:27] <CaptObvious> P
[03:27] <CaptObvious> :P*
[03:28] <Manad> nevermind
[03:29] <Manad> if I have 2 ext3 partitions, one full, one empty, can I merge them without losing the data on the one that's full?
[03:29] <genii> Yes
[03:29] <Bandit> how can i tell which sound device my mic is in kubuntu ?
[03:29] <CaptObvious> you want to do JBOD?
[03:30] <CaptObvious> actually, can linux treat 2 ext3 partitions on seperate disks as 1 large partition?
[03:30] <CaptObvious> or 3 on 3 seperate disks?
[03:30] <CaptObvious> separate*
[03:31] <hydrogen> with LVM
[03:31] <hydrogen> yes
[03:31] <hydrogen> not by default
[03:32] <CaptObvious> that'd be useful for my fileserver
[03:32] <CaptObvious> mind you
[03:32] <CaptObvious> you can mount a volume in any directory, right?
[03:32] <CaptObvious> so I could have a whole separate disk mounted in ~/downloads
[03:33] <hydrogen> yes
[03:33] <CaptObvious> like windows can with NTFS
[03:34] <NightBird> you can make any file systems mount point be anywhere in linux...  like I have a 60 ext3 partition set up as my /home directory, while my / directory has 40 gigs to use elsewhere
[03:35] <hydrogen>  mm
[03:35] <hydrogen> I have a -8.0 zetabyte drive for my /home
[03:36] <Manad> hydrogen, i have my new ext3 parttion ready, but Disks & Filesystems shows it as disabled. How do I enable it without restarting the computer? I set a mount point, so it's just a matter ofenabling.
[03:37] <Manad> the GUI has no such option
[03:37] <Manad> except "enable at startup"
[03:37] <NightBird> Manad: try mount <directory it will mount too>
[03:37] <NightBird> from a console
[03:38] <CaptObvious> mount /dev/hda1 /mnt/whatever
[03:38] <hydrogen> you will need to be root
[03:38] <hydrogen> or use sudo
[03:38] <NightBird> yeah... so if you're mounting the partition to the path /lol the command would be "sudo mount /lol"
[03:38] <Manad> allright, that worked! Thanks! :P
[03:38] <NightBird> np
[03:39] <Manad> I knew abount Mount but thought "enabled" would be a hardware thing unrelated to mount
[03:39] <CaptObvious> you could put it in your fstab for the future
[03:40] <NightBird> CaptObvious: I think that's pretty much what he did do with a gui
[03:40] <Manad> yeah
[03:40] <NightBird> though, if it provided a way to create it, I find it odd that it wouldn't also provide a mechanism to mount it now
[03:41] <Manad> yeah, it's not very intuitive
[03:42] <Manad> but I guess the newbie user (ie me if you guys weren't helping me) would know that he can restart the pc to mount it
[03:44] <toyo|desk> hey all
[03:44] <CaptObvious> woah
[03:44] <CaptObvious> I just rebooted
[03:44] <NightBird> eh... that's one of those habits that you have to try to break new people of that habit
[03:44] <CaptObvious> and kdm launched
[03:44] <CaptObvious> oh dammit, wrong machine
[03:44] <CaptObvious> this was the one that worked anyway :P
[03:44] <NightBird> you should rarely have to restart linux
[03:44] <CaptObvious> I rebooted to plug HDDs back in :P
[03:45] <toyo|desk> so I dont know who all was here last night when I was talking about my USB 2.0 issue that I have
[03:45] <NightBird> at least compared to windows... the only time I find that you have to reboot in linux is for a new kernel install
[03:45] <toyo|desk> but the tip I tried to correct it just helped it for a while
[03:46] <toyo|desk> it still kills the hard drive after a while
[03:46] <CaptObvious> tf
[03:46] <CaptObvious> wtf*
[03:46] <CaptObvious> hal-storage-fixed-mount-all-options refused uid 1000
[03:46] <CaptObvious> I take it that means I need root :P
[03:46] <toyo|desk> to mount the drive?
[03:46] <CaptObvious> to browse it
[03:47] <Manad> is it possible a USB hard drive will fail to mount on Linux? I detect it just fine, but it syas "hal-storage-removable-mount-all-options refused uid 1000"
[03:47] <toyo|desk> right click it hit properties
[03:47] <toyo|desk> click mounting
[03:47] <toyo|desk> uncheck mount as user
[03:47] <toyo|desk> that worked for me
[03:47] <toyo|desk> on my ntfs part
[03:47] <toyo|desk> of my external
[03:47] <Manad> that worked
[03:48] <toyo|desk> :)
[03:49] <Manad> why doesn't it do that by default? how is the average guy supposed to know?
[03:50] <toyo|desk> I had to look around on the internet for a long time for that tip
[03:51] <toyo|desk> I think it only has to do with ntfs partitions
[03:51] <toyo|desk> er sorry ntfs partitions on external drives
[03:53] <toyo|desk> anyway dose anyone know where the ubuntu/kubuntu devs chill?
[03:53] <crimsun> "away from IRC".
[03:53] <Manad> nonsense
[03:54] <toyo|desk> kernel devs specifically
[03:54] <DreadKnight> toyo|desk: #ubuntu-dev
[03:54] <crimsun> again, away from IRC.  They do chat in #ubuntu-kernel during USA business hours.
[03:54] <genii> toyo|desk: Likely the employee lounge at Canonical
[03:54] <toyo|desk> aye
[03:54] <toyo|desk> lol
[03:55] <Manad> sorry to keep asking questions, but I wanted to share a folder with a Windows computer and was under the impression Kubuntu came with Samba. If I go to System Settings > Sharing it warns me that "SMB server is not installed on this machine"
[03:55] <bigdad1e> hi everyone. i am having a problem with uncompressing hldsupdatetool.bin can someone help me?
[03:55] <DreadKnight> Manad: sudo apt-get install samba    i guess :P
[03:55] <DreadKnight> !samba
[03:55] <ubotu> Samba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT.
[03:56] <Manad> thanks for the link
[03:56] <bigdad1e> ive been at it for 3 hours now reading up on everything and nothing seems to be helping me at all.
[03:57] <bigdad1e> !uncompress
[03:57] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about uncompress - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[03:57] <bigdad1e> !ncompress
[03:57] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ncompress - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[03:57] <genii> bigdad1e:  ./hldsupdatetool.bin
[03:57] <bigdad1e> tried it doesnt work
[03:58] <genii> bigdad1e: What message does it give when you try that?
[03:58] <bigdad1e> bigdad1e@bigdad1e-desktop:~/gameserver/srcds$ ./hldsupdatetool.bin
[03:58] <bigdad1e> bash: ./hldsupdatetool.bin: No such file or directory
[03:58] <bigdad1e> its in there
[03:58] <CaptObvious> !webmin
[03:58] <ubotu> webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. It is not compatible with the way that Ubuntu packages handle configuration files, and is likely to cause unexpected issues with your system. See !ebox instead.
[03:58] <CaptObvious> :P
[03:58] <Daisuke_Ido> is the capitalization right?
[03:58] <CaptObvious> !ebox
[03:59] <ubotu> ebox is a web-based GUI interface for administering a server. It is designed to work with Ubuntu/Debian style configuration management. See the plans for Hardy at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/EboxSpec
[03:59] <bigdad1e> yea
[03:59] <bigdad1e> its all lowercase
[03:59] <genii> bigdad1e: Is that the actual dir it is in?
[04:00] <genii> bigdad1e: The next thing which comes to mind is that is IS executing, but the program is looking for some file or directory which does not exist in the places it looks.
[04:00] <bigdad1e> home/bigdad1e/gameserver/srcds
[04:00] <mortici> is there anyway to set a permanent DNS server setting, so that i don't have to enter it every time i boot up the pc?
[04:01] <CaptObvious> bigdad1e: sudo chmod +x hldsupdatetool.bin
[04:01] <bigdad1e> tried that too
[04:01] <CaptObvious> mortici: sudo nano /etc/hosts
[04:01] <CaptObvious> oh wait
[04:01] <genii> bigdad1e: I mean that the progam called hldsupdatetool.bin is running. But then part of what it does when beginning to operate is look for something which does not exist
[04:01] <mortici> CaptObvious: thats for the host file
[04:01] <CaptObvious> DNS server setting rather than DNS entry?
[04:01] <bigdad1e> nothing comes up when i put that command in
[04:01] <CaptObvious> do you not get DNS server by DHCP?
[04:01] <CaptObvious> but anyway
[04:01] <CaptObvious> sudo nano /etc/resolv.conf
[04:02] <mortici> thanks :)
[04:02] <mortici> i do
[04:02] <mortici> but i want different DNS servers :)
[04:02] <CaptObvious> :)
[04:02] <mortici> ok
[04:02] <bigdad1e> im lost right now and its starting to get the best of me lol
[04:02] <mortici> well it says the changes will be over written
[04:02] <mortici> :/
[04:03] <mortici> doesn't help me much there
[04:03] <mortici> is there a permanent location else where?
[04:03] <CaptObvious> yeah, wherever network interfaces are defined in kubuntu
[04:03] <mortici> weird
[04:03]  * CaptObvious thrashes 3 hard drives at once
[04:03] <Pici> mortici: add this to /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf: prepend domain-name-servers xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx;
[04:03] <mortici> when i set it there they disappear
[04:03] <bigdad1e> genii: can you pm me
[04:04] <mortici> Pici:  you are god :)
[04:04] <Pici> mortici: mine is like this for OpenDNS: prepend domain-name-servers <IP_ADDRESS>, <IP_ADDRESS>;
[04:04] <CaptObvious> "Fetched 11.6MB in 6s (1687kb/s)" <3
[04:05] <mortici> Pici: did you comment out domain-name-servers in the request field?
[04:05] <Pici> mortici: No, I didnt.
[04:05] <mortici> k
[04:05] <mortici> this works with dhcp awsome
[04:06] <mortici> even better
[04:06] <Pici> yep yep :)
[04:06] <mortici> is there a way for a manual setup to do the same thing, IF i wanted to eliminate DHCP and set static routes?
[04:06] <genii> bigdad1e: I'm not here much longer. try: sudo apt-get install lib32gcc1                    then after try to run the file again by: ./filename
[04:07] <genii> eg: ./hldsupdatetool.bin
[04:07] <hydrogen> is there a version of acrobat reader for linux?
[04:07] <bigdad1e> yay
[04:08] <bigdad1e> that worked
[04:08] <joh6nn> any search i run in apt-cache has lots of blank lines mixed in with the output, and once the search is done, bash acts like i held down the enter key; anyone know what might cause that?
[04:08] <bigdad1e> thanks alot
[04:08] <bigdad1e> you saved my computer from a firey grave lol.
[04:09] <bigdad1e> you have a wonderful day or night depending on where ever you are located. but thank you soo much.
[04:09] <bigdad1e> life saver
[04:09] <genii> bigdad1e: np. Have a good night
[04:09] <genii> See everyone later <passes coffees out to all>
[04:09] <bigdad1e> good night everyone and thank you for all your help.
[04:10] <mortici> there has to be a location to set the settings perminately for the manual configed address....
[04:10] <hydrogen> or let me rephrase that.. how do I get acrobat reader in kubuntu?
[04:11] <Dragnslcr> hydrogen- kpdf should be installed by default
[04:11] <joh6nn> hydrogen: do you want acrobat specifically, or just something to read pdfs?
[04:11] <hydrogen> I need acrobat
[04:11] <hydrogen> not a pdf reader
[04:11] <hydrogen> acrobat reader*
[04:11] <hydrogen> not any pdf reader*
[04:11] <hydrogen> to clarify
[04:11] <Dragnslcr> Is there some specific pdf file that isn't being displayed correctly in kpdf?
[04:12] <hydrogen> It is an interactive pdf
[04:12] <hydrogen> and kpdf can't handle
[04:12] <Dragnslcr> Ah
[04:12] <hydrogen> and okular is misbehaving for me :/
[04:12] <Dragnslcr> Adobe's site might have a Linux version available
[04:12] <Dragnslcr> If not, you could try using wine
[04:12] <joh6nn> there's one in the repositories, i think
[04:13] <hydrogen> adobe has an rpm..
[04:13] <posingaspopular> sigh, okay so I was messnig with knetworkmanager, now all my setting are wrong
[04:13] <hydrogen> not seeing anything in apt
[04:13] <posingaspopular> i cant even scan for networks anymore
[04:13] <hydrogen> but I wasn't sure if it was hidden somewhere
[04:13] <posingaspopular> is there a way to revert everything I did?
[04:13] <joh6nn> hmm.  guess not
[04:13] <joh6nn> i thought there was
[04:14] <joh6nn> well, like Dragnslcr said then, check the adobe site
[04:15] <joh6nn> anybody have any guess what would make apt-cache start spitting out blank lines in any search?
[04:17] <ubuntu> someone please help me, this live CD messed up up my MBR and i cant get back into windows, my windows CD wont even boot
[04:17] <thesiege> any ideas guys?
[04:18] <thesiege> im on a live cd and i tried downloading ms-sys but i cant compile it
[04:18] <joh6nn> Ubuntu: thesiege what do you mean, the cd won't boot?
[04:19] <draik> How do I clear my CLI history?
[04:19] <Dragnslcr> draik- you can clear out ~/.bash_history
[04:19] <joh6nn> draik: you mean erase the history so no one can see what you did, or just clear the screen?
[04:19] <thesiege> my xp cd wont boot
[04:19] <draik> Clear out everything I've typed
[04:20] <joh6nn> thesiege: you said that.  i'm looking for error messages, or at the least a little more detail
[04:20] <draik> thesiege: I think you're in the wrong channel
[04:20] <hydrogen> type `clear`
[04:20] <hydrogen> or `reset`
[04:20] <draik> Clear only clears the screen. Reset didn't do it.
[04:20] <thesiege> error 21
[04:20] <thesiege> from grub
[04:21] <thesiege> when i tried installing ubuntu from the live cd to a removeable HDD i got this error after reboot
[04:21] <thesiege> now only the live cd works
[04:21] <reaperdragon> hey ktorrent wont start up any advice
[04:21] <mortici> start it in konsole
[04:21] <mortici> and see what the error is
[04:22] <reaperdragon> it says already started
[04:22] <draik> I read that wrong. I swore reaperdragon said "kTorrent won't start up any devices"
[04:22] <joh6nn> thesiege: open up /boot/grub/menu.lst
[04:22] <reaperdragon> but it's not in my start bar
[04:22] <reaperdragon> like it use to be
[04:23]  * draik thinks it's time for lasik eye surgery
[04:23] <thesiege> ok, id do that how?
[04:23] <joh6nn> thesiege: pick any text editor, and just browse to that file
[04:23] <thesiege> ok
[04:23] <joh6nn> once you've got it open, scroll down to the bottom
[04:23] <reaperdragon> ktorrent is showing in my bar
[04:24] <reaperdragon> is not
[04:24] <thesiege> ok im there
[04:26] <joh6nn> thesiege: the entries down at the bottom, that make up the menu, they should all have lines that say something like "root            (hd#,#)"
[04:26] <draik> QDVDAuthor is taking too long. Is there an alternative to putting an AVI as Video DVD that will not take 3+ hours
[04:26] <thesiege> yeah i see them
[04:26] <joh6nn> does it say "root          (hd0,0)" ?
[04:27] <thesiege> root		(hd1,0)
[04:27] <thesiege> the last one does
[04:27] <thesiege> the windows one
[04:27] <thesiege> but the first one has root(hd1,0)
[04:28] <joh6nn> do you have windows and linux on separate hard drives?
[04:28] <joh6nn> or are they on the same drive?
[04:28] <thesiege> well i was trying to put linux on the removable hdd
[04:28] <thesiege> and currently i am on a live CD and windows is on  the internal hdd
[04:29] <joh6nn> so they're on different drives?
[04:29] <thesiege> technically yes
[04:29] <joh6nn> ok
[04:29] <draik> Yay... 3 hours and 11 minutes... yet again for the past x minutes
[04:29] <joh6nn> have you moved the drives around since you tried to install?
[04:30] <thesiege> well, not really, like i said, i only have 1 internal drive, and then i have my external drive
[04:31] <joh6nn> just for kicks, type "mount" in a terminal, and PM the results to me
[04:33] <thesiege> it says im unregistered, i cant pm
[04:33] <thesiege> http://pastebin.com/m46f20355
[04:33] <thesiege> its right there
[04:35] <unagi> i think im ready to remove gnome and stick with kde.........but im worried it might remove something i need/want
[04:35] <joh6nn> paste in all the menu entries from grub, too.  just for the hell of it
[04:35] <joh6nn> unagi: so leave it be for now?
[04:35] <joh6nn> or do you need the space?
[04:36] <bigdad1e> can someone help me with setting up an ftp server?
[04:36] <unagi> i dont NEED it but i rarely switch to gnome anymore
[04:36] <thesiege> http://pastebin.com/m210667fc
[04:36] <unagi> i mean like im so  use to using gedit
[04:36] <unagi> though i like kate
[04:36] <unagi> is there a page that shows a translation of progs from gnome to kde?
[04:37] <biovore> just run your gnome program in kde..
[04:37] <unagi> if i remove gnome it removes all gnome based progs right?
[04:39] <bigdad1e> how hard is it to set up an ftp server?
[04:39] <bigdad1e> !ftpserver
[04:39] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ftpserver - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[04:39] <bigdad1e> !ftp server
[04:39] <ubotu> FTP servers: ftpd, proftpd, pure-ftpd, twoftpd, vsftpd, MuddleFTPd, wzdftpd - Graphical front-ends: PureAdmin, GProftpd (for GNOME), KcmPureftpd (for !KDE) - See also !FTP
[04:39] <biovore> nope.. install proftpd or wu-ftp
[04:39] <unagi> !ftp
[04:39] <ubotu> FTP clients: !Nautilus, !gFTP (for !GNOME) - !Konqueror, !Kasablanca, !KFTPGrabber (for !KDE) - See also !FTPd
[04:39] <biovore> or one of thoes others
[04:40] <bigdad1e> and it will set it up so other people can connect to a seleted folder and upload files to it from their home or business?
[04:40] <thesiege> anything joh6nn?
[04:40] <DreadKnight> bigdad1e: you are asking for a ftp-server :P
[04:41] <biovore> FTP is sorta of a problem because its plain text..  try sftp  (winscp on windows)
[04:41] <joh6nn> thesiege: looking now
[04:41] <bigdad1e> true
[04:41] <biovore> should work if you have ssh installed
[04:41] <bigdad1e> i installed proftp and gproftp doesnt seem to like me to much?
[04:42] <Lthreethreetee> just use ssh
[04:42] <unagi> use html\
[04:42] <DreadKnight> ssh is cool xD
[04:43] <bigdad1e> ssh for ftp server?
[04:43] <joh6nn> thesiege: what drive are you trying to boot from?
[04:43] <DreadKnight> !ssh
[04:43] <ubotu> SSH is the Secure SHell protocol. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHHowto for usage. Putty is a nice SSH client for Windows; it can be found at http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/
[04:44] <biovore> Is ssh is installed you can sftp into the box..  (passwords not in plain site that way, more secure)
[04:44] <thesiege> i would like to boot the windows drive hda1
[04:44] <bigdad1e> will people runing windows be able to access the files?
[04:44] <biovore> if they have winscp installed.. yes
[04:44] <ses59> i installed a 32bit adobe reader and now it is messing up opening pdf files but i can not find a way to apt-get to uninstall it any suggestions on how to remove the bad program?
[04:45] <bigdad1e> i need something they wont need anything but an ftp client to connect to
[04:45] <ses59> i have a 64 bit kubuntu running
[04:45] <joh6nn> thesiege: which drive are you actively attempting to boot from?
[04:46] <joh6nn> bigdad1e: i strongly recommend forcing them to use an sftp client, rather than an ftp client.  or is that not an option?
[04:47] <thesiege> joh6nn: im not sure i understand the question
[04:47] <bigdad1e> it is but im new to linux and i dont know how to install all of these programs
[04:47] <thesiege> i told my bios to boot from the internal HDD
[04:47] <joh6nn> thesiege: and that's the drive that windows is on?
[04:47] <thesiege> yes
[04:47] <bigdad1e> joh6nn: can you show me?
[04:49] <Lthreethreetee> !apt | bigdad1e
[04:49] <ubotu> bigdad1e: APT is the Advanced Package Tool, which together with dpkg forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit. Short apt-get manual: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGetHowto - Also see !Synaptic (Gnome) or !Adept (KDE)
[04:49] <joh6nn> thesiege: i understand exactly what happened, but i don't know how to explain it.  basically, you've bitten off more than you can chew, and it's more than i can help you with at 10 till midnight, with work in the morning
[04:49] <joh6nn> what happens when you try to boot your windows CD?
[04:49] <bigdad1e> i know the basics of apt and aptitude sudo but configuring the ftp server is what i dont knwo what to do with
[04:50] <albertolempira> hey guys i have a dumb question... Can i have some desktop effects (like Compiz Fusion) on  KDE 4 ¿?
[04:50] <thesiege> it says inspecting systems hardware and then nothing happens
[04:50] <biovore> albertolempira: there built into kde4
[04:50] <drarem> how can I copy my current kde session to a test one, dont want to mess up current one
[04:50] <joh6nn> bigdad1e: i'm gonna go to bed in a second, but if you hop into #ubuntu i'm sure someone there will be able to help
[04:50] <biovore> just have to turn them on.. there not that fancy yet..
[04:50] <thesiege> dont worry, i can come back tomorrow, its not that important
[04:50] <mortici> albertolempira: yes, right click on the window and select window behaviour you can enable special effects from there
[04:50] <bigdad1e> ok
[04:50] <bigdad1e> thanks
[04:52] <joh6nn> all right, i'm tired
[04:52] <joh6nn> night
[04:52] <thesiege> thanks man
[04:53] <albertolempira> mortici: thanks!
[04:55] <mortici> np
[05:09] <Vermyndax> hey all
[05:09] <Vermyndax> I am having a really weird problem
[05:09] <Vermyndax> I *just* installed Kubuntu 7.10
[05:09] <Vermyndax> from the DVD
[05:09] <_2> all is not here right now.  can we help ?
[05:09] <Vermyndax> login to my desktop
[05:10] <Vermyndax> and it says there's a distribution upgrade... huh?
[05:10] <Vermyndax> I just installed the newest
[05:10] <Vermyndax> and adept refuses to update packages
[05:11] <Vermyndax> hmmm now that I've rebooted, X won't start
[05:12] <Vermyndax> any idea why it would tell me there is a distribution upgrade and start loading the dist upgrade tool?
[05:12] <_2> and that's a fresh install....   i think i will wait and let "all" handle that one...
[05:12] <Vermyndax> yeah it's a fresh install... totally bizarre
[05:12] <Vermyndax> now I'm in the command line doing an apt-get upgrade/update
[05:12] <Daisuke_Laptop> it tells you there's a distribution upgrade and loads the upgrade tool because adept is bugged.  it's now been bugged for four months.
[05:12] <Vermyndax> so let's see what happens now
[05:12] <Daisuke_Laptop> and NOTHING has been done to resolve this.
[05:12] <Vermyndax> Daisuke_Laptop: wow... so, what's the method for updating then?
[05:12] <Daisuke_Laptop> god i love kde
[05:13] <Vermyndax> wow that really, really sucks
[05:13] <Vermyndax> I am in command line updating it now
[05:13] <Vermyndax> I was going to load KDE 4.0.1 just to see it anyway
[05:15] <toyo|desk> are there any kde apps for adjusting the cpu frequency
[05:15] <Vermyndax> rebooting now let's see what happens
[05:16] <Vermyndax> problem is... evolution drives me nuts, which is why I prefer kde
[05:16] <Vermyndax> well, that seems to have fixed it
[05:17] <Vermyndax> I am in the splash now
[05:17] <drarem> if I right-click -> remove panel from kde3, how can i get it back
[05:17] <_2> kicker
[05:19] <drarem> is there just an easy way to create a new session based on kde3 and test with that
[05:20] <_2> new session ? logout  drop to a console and run#  mv ~/.kde ~/.backup_kde    # log back in.
[05:20] <_2> is that what you mean ?
[05:20] <drarem> yes, so it shows up in my session list and I can select it
[05:21] <Vermyndax> heh
[05:21] <Vermyndax> I am a sadist
[05:21] <Vermyndax> here comes kde4-core
[05:21] <drarem> ty
[05:21] <_2> oh kdm option...     errr not sure what to say there
[05:21] <drarem> oh
[05:22] <_2> what i said will reset your kde session to defaults  but wont add an option that isn't already in kdm.
[05:22] <Vermyndax> anyone else here using kde 4.0.1?
[05:23] <_2> i'm not even using X
[05:23] <drarem> ok
[05:24] <_2> drarem if it remember rightly, you can add an entry in /etc/X11/sessions/ something....   errr been to long.
[05:25] <drarem> thanks
[05:30] <_2> i think i have several dirs in /etc that apt didn't remove when i cleaned my system
[05:36] <Vermyndax> not impressed
[05:37] <_2> :[
[05:39] <_2> a hoe-ax ?   isn't that a multi-purpose gardening tool ?
[05:40] <_2> sort of like a pick-ax ?    only it's a  hoax    :)
[05:41] <wastedfluid> May sound stupid; but I can not figure it out for the life of me.  Does anyone know how to disable this OSD of messages with Kopete... when I get a message, it pops up these annoying OSD's of it.. and I've looked all in the configure dialog, and can't find it.
[06:07] <_2> thought i'd look up [pbflush] and see if i wanted it on my box or not.   found this thread http://lists.samba.org/archive/linux/2004-February/009679.html    laugh a minute
[06:18] <Carutsu> hey why can't i use the pop3:/ kioslave, it asks if i want to open it with kmail instead of just logging in
[06:21] <_2> [17187201.872000] Device 'vesafb.0' does not have a release() function, it is broken and must be fixed.
[06:21] <Eko_Hermiyanto> my KDE 4 works good in Ubuntu... oh yes baby
[06:21] <Eko_Hermiyanto> :D
[06:22] <Carutsu> anyone knows what I'm talking about... at least :P
[06:25] <_2> Carutsu about email access via konqueror it looks like.  but what happens if you just navigate the ip    not use the kio ?
[06:25] <Carutsu> what do you mean, writting foomail@fooserver ?
[06:26] <_2> yeah
[06:26] <hydrogen> err
[06:26] <hydrogen> that wouldn't work
[06:26] <Carutsu> nop it tries to send a mail _2
[06:26] <_2> ah it's mimed.  k
[06:27] <Carutsu> _2: it seems
[06:27] <Carutsu> hydrogen: any clues why it doesn't "just work"TM ? :P
[06:28] <hydrogen> Carutsu: kmail is probably set as your pop3 handler
[06:28] <hydrogen> higher than konqueror
[06:28] <Carutsu> mm, perhaps... lets see
[06:29] <Carutsu> thank you all, I'll try to solve it at a later time
[06:30] <_2> i really think that this box could do without all of these   http://ubuntu.pastebin.us/?show=d208d7414
[06:32] <_2> an i wonder where my ps went....
[06:32] <Carutsu> hydrogen: mm I wasn't able to find pop3:/ in konqueror's dialog, as far as I can see it just manages files
[06:32] <Carutsu> mime tipes
[06:33] <_2> true: /bin/ps: No such file or directory
[06:34] <_2> !find /bin/ps
[06:35] <ubotu> File /bin/ps found in procps
[06:35] <_2> ok.
[06:35] <hydrogen> what did you do!
[06:35] <_2> hmm ?
[06:36] <_2> oh i just installed procps
[06:36] <hydrogen> why did you uninstall it? Oo
[06:36] <_2> caues i cleaned this system
[06:37] <_2> for Q in `dpkg -l | grep 'ii ' | cut -d' ' -f3` ;do apt-get -y --purge remove $Q ;done      <<<<  i ran that.
[06:38] <Smutt> hey what f button do i press to boot my laptop from cd drive
[06:38] <hydrogen> uhm
[06:38] <hydrogen> doesn't that uninstall everything you have?
[06:38] <NightBird> Smutt: depends on the bios...
[06:38] <_2> hydrogen no.
[06:38] <_2> skipps everything marked "essential"
[06:38] <Smutt> im trying to install kubuntu and f10 and f8 not working
[06:38] <hydrogen> ah
[06:38] <NightBird> Smutt: you may need to set it to boot by default by getting into the bios options, or you may have the ability to declare a one time boot from
[06:39] <NightBird> I've seen F1, F2, F8 and Escape all being buttons to do special things with the bios
[06:39] <Smutt> its an asus f3 series laptop...anyone else here have an asus?
[06:39] <_2> hydrogen but if one adds --force-yes   then it does what you were thinking
[06:39] <NightBird> I have an asus
[06:39] <Smutt> how to boot it from cd drive
[06:39] <NightBird> I have to use the F2, but there is no guarantee that that will be sufficient
[06:39] <Smutt> wats this force thing u guys speak of....i dont wanna do it by mistake?
[06:40] <Smutt> f2 and f3 should have same boot load button
[06:40] <NightBird> I hit F2 to open the bios, change the boot order to have the cd drive be boot from before the disk
[06:40] <Smutt> alright kool
[06:40] <Daisuke_Ido> i've also seen tab and delete as major bios keys
[06:40] <Smutt> i guess ill try that
[06:40] <Smutt> wat button shoudlnt i push because might nuke my drives
[06:40] <NightBird> yeah... there is no real standard in how to enter bios configuration...
[06:41] <_2> Smutt you wont force the package manager by mistake.   if you do it, it will be intentional.     it always is.
[06:41] <Smutt> damn...they need a damn standard
[06:41] <Smutt> lol ok
[06:41] <Smutt> cya all ill be back on kubuntu hopefully
[06:41] <Daisuke_Ido> wow...  looks like they got flash fixed.
[06:42] <mirador> bonjour

[06:43] <Daisuke_Ido> Version <IP_ADDRESS>.2+really0ubuntu12.1 < clever.
[06:43]  * NightBird goes to bed
[06:49] <_2> well they may have fixed flash but they have not fixed "tzconfig"
[06:49] <_2> http://ubuntu.pastebin.us/?show=d2f00d8c8
[06:50] <_2> not on the LTS anyway
[06:51] <_2> when i power down, i'll check the hardware clock from bios and make sure it is set to utc
[06:51] <_2> i'm pretty sure it is though
[06:57] <Daisuke_Ido> _2: tzconfig is fine on the newer releases - don't know why they wouldn't backport it
[06:59] <_2> me either
[07:03] <_2> shalom
[07:12] <djdarkman> hello, there was a kde4 update this morning, did it contain the kicker custumization?
[07:13] <djdarkman> ohhh soorry, never mind
[07:13] <djdarkman> didn`t see the topic
[07:13] <kunal_> there is no kicker in KDE4
[07:14] <djdarkman> ok, I dont know how it`s called
[07:14] <djdarkman> I was referring to the panel...
[07:15] <Eko_Hermiyanto> yes
[07:15] <Eko_Hermiyanto> there is somewhat like kicker in the panel
[07:15] <Eko_Hermiyanto> kickoff is the name
[07:16] <djdarkman> kickoff is the name of the new fancy kmenu....
[07:17] <Eko_Hermiyanto> the new kde is amazing
[07:17] <ethan961> the panel was disappearing on me, and I couldn't find the executable name to launch it again
[07:19] <Rcommander> Hi guys I need some help configuring Kubuntu on my Asus g1s
[07:20] <Rcommander> On my Asus g1s in Gnome ubuntu all my FN keys works fine, however in Kubuntu they don't seem to work right??
[07:23] <Patrick13251> I'm trying to install some nvidia drivers on Kubuntu 7.10 and having issues shutting down x properly.  Does anyone have a moment to help?
[07:23] <Rcommander> patrick what kind of computer do you have?
[07:24] <Patrick13251> Homemade Intel Dual core, installed the 64 bit kernel
[07:24] <Rcommander> whats the mobo?
[07:24] <Rcommander> i mean brand
[07:24] <Patrick13251> I think asus with an nvidia chipset
[07:25] <Rcommander> ok do you have 4GB ram?
[07:25] <Patrick13251> Yes
[07:25] <Rcommander> ok
[07:26] <Rcommander> you need to update the bios, what is happening is that older Asus bios' cannot map the north bridge correctly, download the bios for your mobo that says "support for Penryn CPU' or "memory issue fixed"
[07:26] <Rcommander> you should be fine
[07:26] <Patrick13251> Ok, is there a place I can get more info about this?  And thanks for the help by the way.
[07:27] <Rcommander> um no i had to do this for mine...if you google they have a kernel patch or something...but i ain't savvy enough to install it
[07:27] <Rcommander> myself
[07:27] <apparle> Can I update my repositories without net
[07:30] <Smutt> hi all im new to kubuntu...where do i go on kubuntu to connect to a wireless network...im on laptop
[07:39] <sayucyof> hello
[07:41] <apparle> I donot have net at home but I want to upgrade my repositories. can I do that
[07:46] <Patrick13251> Apparle, I sent you some messages directly.  Did you get those?
[07:48] <Patrick13251> Apparle, I haven't tried it but have you looked here? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=310020
[07:50] <apparle> Patrick13251: I did not geet any of your messages
[07:51] <ogy> tst
[07:59] <apparle> Patrick13251: could you come offtopic. Please
[08:03] <Patrick13251> apparle, Im an irc noob.    Typing in there doesn't go to you apparently
[08:06] <apparle> some one please help us IRC as both of us are noob s about IRC. How do we talk privately?
[08:07] <apparle> Patrick13251: I can see that the link is very useful but is there a windows version
[08:08] <Patrick13251> hmm
[08:08] <Patrick13251> no but if you have a different PC you could use a live-cd of some kind and then probably put it on a USB stick
[08:09] <Patrick13251> then again, Im no expert, maybe they do have a PC version of apt
[08:09] <Patrick13251> maybe for cygwin or mingw
[08:18] <apparle> Patrick13251: I could not understand exactly what to do. Could you explain?

[08:42] <harmental> any hints?
[08:45] <harmental> my fstab claims: "/dev/hda6 none swap sw 0 0"
[08:57] <Patrick13251> is /etc/init.d/kdm stop not working correctly in Kubuntu 7.10?
[08:59] <mith_> hi all! are there any way to easily configure my multimedia keyboard?
[09:01] <noam_> is it just me or the latest flash player update breaks konqueror?
[09:16] <spartacus> Hi. Just a question re installing Kubuntu on an existing Ubuntu installation. The 4.0.1 news page says to install kde4-core, while FAQ says to install kubuntu-desktop. Should I read that to mean I need both?
[09:17] <emilsedgh> spartacus: kubuntu-desktop will install kubuntu stuff which are KDE3 based
[09:18] <emilsedgh> spartacus: if you want a complete kubuntu with stability, go with kubuntu-desktop, if you want to be on the edge of desktop technology and you dont mind losing a few features and a little bit of stability, go with kde4-core
[09:20] <spartacus> emilsedgh: OK, I don't mind bleeding edge stuff now and then. I should get a full KDE 4 desktop available in KDM after installing kde4-core?
[09:20] <emilsedgh> spartacus: i think so, read the announcement, teaches how to install kde4 stuff
[09:21] <llutz> spartacus: you won't bcus most of the apps aren't ported to kde4 now
[09:22] <spartacus> emilsedgh: I have. I didn't  think it was clear that kde-desktop only installed 3.x, so wanted to check what was needed...
[09:22] <emilsedgh> good
[09:22] <spartacus> llutz: yeah, that's fine though - I'm mostly looking for the KDE4 core desktop...
[09:22] <ctx144k> hello all, i wanna change my quit-dialog in KDE... i dont need the 2 options for sleeping-mode
[09:23] <ctx144k> is there a way to diable them?
[09:23] <ctx144k> disable
[09:32] <ForgeAus> wow

[09:47] <ForgeAus> theres also a smaller 100 or so mb xfce one

[09:47] <nareshov> Hi, does the kubuntu installer do LVM install?
[09:47] <ForgeAus> but the .drv files are pretty much static (although they are resizable there's a tool with it for that)

[10:28] <inetpro> oops ... sorry
[10:29] <ForgeAus> I'm trying to do something that it probably shouldn't be able to do anyway, for now I'm happy to leave it
[10:30] <ForgeAus> I'm just happy to have whats turning out to essentially be an embedded kubuntu in my windows
[10:30] <ForgeAus> ogl support is terrible tho
[10:30] <ForgeAus> I need a better diff X-server or something to replace TAP whatever that is
[10:32] <jussi01> neville: what is it?
[10:32] <ForgeAus> hehe I'd be interesting to see if wine does anything more from inside andlinux than it does in plain kubuntu

[10:33] <jussi01> ROOT_OF_ALL_EVIL: which sound card ?
[10:34] <ForgeAus> I had problems with Asus and sound with kubuntu too
[10:34] <jussi01> ForgeAus: pretty much

[10:34] <jussi01> a little more info would be good ;)
[10:34] <ForgeAus> ok now I can get rid of interix and maybe pkgsrc bootstrap my andlinux (I'm sure it wasn't meant for that! rofl but it could b fun)
[10:35] <ForgeAus> also to test if slackware binaries work in AndLinux like they do in Kubuntu
[10:36] <ForgeAus> if this works I don't need to fix my kubuntu partition I can just use this instead
[10:36] <ForgeAus> and maybe put MacOSX there in place of it:)
[10:37] <jussi01> ForgeAus: -offtopic ;)
[10:38] <ROOT_OF_ALL_EVIL> jussi01: How can i watch version of my sound card (for more information)?

[11:00] <jussi01> ROOT_OF_ALL_EVIL: you tried the first part: K Menu -> System Settings -> Sound System and making sure "Enable the sound system" is checked

[11:40] <Tecmi> i have kubuntu 7.10 in cd, someone know how to boot from disk if i dont have access to bios?
[11:41] <Tecmi> i hate these schools computers, everything disabled.
[11:41] <Lynoure> Tecmi: it's not really a kubuntu problem... if your bios does not boot from disk, and you cannot access it (why?), you are pretty much out of luck
[11:41] <ForgeAus> argh I need OSX86!
[11:41] <thanasi> Tecmi: can you edit menu.lst for grub?
[11:42] <Lynoure> Tecmi: I feel your pain, but alas, without bios block / no disk boot they'd have to get reinstalled nightly in most schools... and some actually go that route.
[11:42] <Tecmi> no, have vista in ewery computer and disalloved to use them as logged root
[11:42] <Tecmi> i just wanted tu run kubuntu from disk, not install or anything :)
[11:43] <Tecmi> and sry about my poor english skills
[11:43] <thanasi> Tecmi: no luck then. if you can install a VM you can boot it from there but you'll stille need admin rights to install anything
[11:43] <thanasi> still*
[11:43] <Tecmi> yep
[11:44] <Lynoure> Tecmi: yes, unfortunately for each kubuntu booter there is couple of kids who really like to mess up things... You could offer yourself as a volunteer and get bios access, if they work that way there =)
[11:45] <jussi01> Tecmi: you could also check if usb boot has been enabled... ;)(or forgottoen to be disabled)
[11:45] <Tecmi> i think its disabled too.
[11:46] <Tecmi> maybe i just use that fucking putty
[11:46] <Tecmi> :p

[11:52] <simion314> hi, can i load in parallels my real windows xp partition? it will be a waste of space and time to install other xp
[11:53]  * ForgeAus shrugs
[11:57] <Lynoure> simion314: parallels? isn't that closed source stuff, for os x, mostly? and on win xp? Is there Kubuntu there somewhere in that question?
[11:58] <simion314> Lynoure:  yes, it is avaiable for ubuntu 15 days trial in repositories, i want to test it
[11:59] <ForgeAus> I don't know much about parallels
[12:00] <ForgeAus> has anyone pkgsrc bootstrapped their kubuntu?
[12:00] <ForgeAus> KuBSDuntu?
[12:01] <Lynoure> simion314: if it was in ubuntu repositories, I think it will only work in (k)ubuntu, not xp
[12:02] <ForgeAus> it would have to be a different version of it for XP
[12:02] <ForgeAus> but it may host XP I don't know
[12:02] <ForgeAus> for all I know it may do a good job of hosting XP
[12:03] <simion314> i can create a xp guest but i do not want that, i wish i can load my windows partition, just a test to compare with vmware
[12:09] <Lynoure> simion314: Maybe you can get Parallels trial for XP from somewhere else...
[12:10] <ForgeAus> you can use vmware to load your xp partition
[12:10] <ForgeAus> (or VirtualBox if you like, that'd be smaller)
[12:12] <ForgeAus> whats the point of having Adept become more like Synaptic if theres already a Kynaptic project?
[12:13] <jussi01> ForgeAus: that, I beleive would be a #kubuntu-devel question
[12:13] <ForgeAus> I agree there jussi :)
[12:16] <dscorbin> For some reason, none of my KDE windows are resizable.  Any ideas?  There is no "sizeable border"
[12:16] <Lynoure> dscorbin: sounds like some compiz thing...
[12:16] <lsz> ...or some kwin thing.
[12:17] <lsz> Hi all, i'm new here.
[12:17] <Lynoure> lsz: :)
[12:20] <dscorbin> Lynoure: compiz?
[12:20] <jussi01> !compiz
[12:20] <ubotu> Kubuntu is not shipping with compiz installed or enabled by default. You can still install it and have your eyecandy goodness. The instructions are at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager/CompizFusion - further help in #compiz-fusion
[12:21] <Lynoure> dscorbin: if you don't know what it is, and it's not a hand-me-down kubuntu you are running, you probably don't have it. So it would not then be the cause, either
[12:22] <lsz> ah, I also have some trouble with my compiz+emerald+kubuntu
[12:22] <dscorbin> It's brand new install of Kubuntu 7.10
[12:22] <lsz> when i start compiz, then run something like kmix or kopete, the icon won't appear in the sys tray
[12:23] <lsz> instead, it goes out of the panels and it is a very small window.
[12:23] <lsz> i have to run kwin --replace to get it in the right position.
[12:23] <jussi01> lsz: I often have that also - havent got a fix yet :/
[12:25] <emilsedgh> is there any archive available for #kubuntu?
[12:25] <lsz> @jussi01, you mean, it is a `feature' instead a bug?
[12:25] <Lynoure> lsz: there seems to be various kubuntu-compiz gui weirdnesses... and as I don't help with compiz here, it's usually my first question to the people with gui weirdness. :)
[12:25] <lsz> :D
[12:25] <jussi01> lsz: yeps :D
[12:30] <Lynoure> dscorbin: hmm, and there is absolutely no resizing possible at any of the edges? That is weird.
[12:30] <SlimeyPete> sounds like kwin hasn't loaded.
[12:31] <dscorbin> Yes, but not for all applications, just KDE ones.  Xchat and firefox are fine, but konsole, konquerer, etc are not
[12:31] <dscorbin> kwin is running
[12:32] <lsz> weird!
[12:33] <dscorbin> Yes.
[12:33] <dscorbin> I can maximize those widnows, but no simple reszing
[12:33] <lsz> do those windows have title bars?
[12:34] <dscorbin> Yes.
[12:34] <ForgeAus> careful it might be QT not KDE
[12:34] <lsz> right-click, any menu item say resize?
[12:34] <dscorbin> And I just discovered if I select Resize from the system menu, I can,and that leaves me  a "grabble border"
[12:34] <ForgeAus> whats a grabble border?
[12:34] <dscorbin> I mean i can then resize THAT window.
[12:35] <lsz> what THAT?
[12:35] <dscorbin> The window I selected RESIZE on.
[12:35] <Dr_Willis> freaky.
[12:35] <dscorbin> And ti appears to have chanced for new windows now.
[12:36] <dscorbin> Very....Things seem better now.  Hope it doesn't come back with a restart
[12:36] <Dr_Willis> you are not using compiz?
[12:36] <ForgeAus> dscorbin sounds like you modified something interesting somehow :)
[12:36] <lsz> Everything well?restart X and wish you good luck.
[12:36] <ForgeAus> does compiz-fusion work with better with KDE than beryl did?
[12:37] <ForgeAus> (it didn't have virtual desktop support from memory)
[12:37] <lsz> surely No
[12:37] <Dr_Willis> Beryl is dead. :)
[12:37] <Dr_Willis> compiz - works.. decently well.
[12:37] <ForgeAus> well not dead, it merged back into compiz
[12:37] <Dr_Willis> it got assimulated. :)
[12:37] <ForgeAus> thas why compiz-fusion
[12:37] <ForgeAus> the fusion bit to indicate reintegration with beryl
[12:38] <Dr_Willis> but the lack of beryl in the name means.. they dident  like the name. :)
[12:38] <ForgeAus> afterall initially all it was was a fork of the beryl project anyway :)
[12:38] <Dr_Willis> Then again.. compiz-fusion is a bit of a mouthfull
[12:38] <lsz> I added "kwin --replace" and "compiz" and "emerald --replace" into my panel
[12:38] <Dr_Willis> The servent has became the master! Young Grasshopper!
[12:38] <ForgeAus> well after a few releases it will probably just drop back to being compiz :)
[12:38] <Dr_Willis> :)
[12:38] <lsz> because i often use that
[12:38] <jussi01> !beryl
[12:38] <ubotu> Beryl has been merged with Compiz to form Compiz-Fusion.  New Beryl installs are discouraged. See also !compiz
[12:39] <ForgeAus> jussi I think I just got through saying that
[12:39] <ForgeAus> well I didn't say about beryl being discouraged but if anyone planned to install beryl I'd have recommended compiz-fusion instead :)
[12:40] <ForgeAus> but now you did that... it makes me wonder something
[12:40] <ForgeAus> !compiz
[12:40] <ubotu> Kubuntu is not shipping with compiz installed or enabled by default. You can still install it and have your eyecandy goodness. The instructions are at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager/CompizFusion - further help in #compiz-fusion
[12:40] <ForgeAus> :)
[12:41] <ForgeAus> I might change my mimetypes and make krusader my default file manager I think
[12:50] <ForgeAus> hmmm AndLinux is smoother internet than my native Windows, thats strange
[12:50] <ForgeAus> especially since it passes through
[12:51] <psi_> arrrgghh all my fonts are tiny and i can't read the text in this chat room how do i fix it can some one wright in caps please
[12:52] <lsz> LOOK AT YOUR CLIENT‘S PREF！
 ：的
[12:53] <psi_> sigh guess i got to reinstall kubuntu thanks for trying guys
[12:53] <lsz> :D, i mean
[12:53] <lsz>  ：的 should be :D
[12:53] <Dr_Willis> and reinstalling will fix fonts how exactly?
[12:53] <savetheWorld> I guess the more serious question is should someone who cant figure that out be allowed to use a computer? Even Windows users can solve that.
[12:54] <ForgeAus> as much as I hate to admit it GTK is handy :(
[12:54] <Dr_Willis> You could hit alt-ctrl NUMPAD + and - to set the  res lower
[12:54] <CJari> hi
[12:55] <lsz>   savetheWorld: I don't quite understand your "should someone who cant figure that out be allowed to use"
[12:55] <jussi01> !hi | CJari
[12:55] <ubotu> CJari: Hi! Welcome to #kubuntu!
[12:55] <CJari> I'm trying to figure why rosegarden stopped playing the midi files, I wonder if there's other program taking the sound system?
[12:56] <lsz> arts + timidity = a lot of trouble
[12:56] <CJari> actually I hear no sounds at all in rosegarden but other apps play sounds
[12:56] <jussi01> !midi
[12:56] <ubotu> Trouble playing MIDI files? Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MidiSoftwareSynthesisHowTo
[12:56] <lsz> that's your rosegarden didn't link to the arts
[12:57] <CJari> jussi01: actually its not just the midi, but all the notes when you record, maybe they use the midi?
[12:57] <lsz> i had the same trouble with noteedit a few days ago, and i still don't know what did i do
[12:58] <lsz> but it works now.
[12:58] <CJari> hmm do I need timidity library in order to play midi in rosegarden?
[12:59] <lsz> don't know rosegarden because i havn't used that.
[12:59] <CJari> ok
[12:59] <lsz> Did rosegarden work yesterday?
[12:59] <lsz> or some other day?
[13:01] <jussi01> CJari: if you dont get an answer here, you may find someone in #ubuntustudio knows
[13:02] <CJari> lsz it worked just a while ago :) then I dont know what happened
[13:02] <CJari> but Im used to kill the timidity process, now I uninstalled it, maybe thats it
[13:02] <CJari> and I restarted few times
[13:03] <lsz> CJari: OK, then just do something like restart X, config the sound system in kcontrol/systemsettings, restart artsd...
[13:03] <lsz>  CJari: ...and even restart linux...
[13:03] <lsz> and wish a good luck.
[13:06] <CJari> lsz I did restart linux :)
[13:06] <CJari> thanks
[13:08] <lsz> CJari: I just tried a lot of useless things and now it works...I don't know further. Maybe it is because the arts takes your soundcard, and others(timidity, rosegarden) can't access it.
[13:09] <CJari> lsz hmmm ok I used the kill command to end artsd but it didnt help
[13:09] <CJari> using timidity again - that always works

[13:31] <lsz> but that works fairly well
[13:31] <lsz> after all, i prefer kde3 now.
[13:31] <ForgeAus> Luke I don't remember which command its a switch of but if I were you I'd try it with apt-get before I'd go dpkg
[13:31] <hellmaster> i have a question, how do i know my current screen resolution and how can i change it?
[13:31] <ForgeAus> kcontrol hellmaster (or system-settings)
[13:32] <lsz> systemsettings, not system-settings
[13:32] <ForgeAus> or if you like cli I think you can use xrandr
[13:33] <hellmaster> im in kcontrol, where exactly?
[13:33] <ForgeAus> there should be a monitors subseciton there
[13:34] <hellmaster> thanks!!!

[13:41] <ForgeAus> hehe using compiz to make my XP desktop rotate would be impressive :)
[13:44] <tomahasamoot> ForgeAus: you can do that, put XP in a VM on your desktop, then rotate away
[13:48] <lsz> you can rotate without compiz in xp, i remember.

[13:49] <Xbehave> is there any way to find out memory frequency?
[13:52] <lsz> Xbehave: yes
[13:53] <lsz> 输入 sudo lshw 也可以察看看这些信息.注意这里的 *-memory 下面有 *-bank:0 之类的代表内存插槽,再下面有 clock: 533MHz (1.9ns) 代表此插槽上插的是DDR 533 的内存.(注意这里不加sudo就看不到内存频率)
[13:53] <lsz> er...let me translate it for you.
[13:54] <lsz> sudo lshw
[13:54] <lsz> then find something like *-memory, then you will find something like 533MHz (1.9ns)
[13:54] <lsz> if you don;t sudo, no freq will be shown.
[13:56] <Xbehave> whats the command because my knoversation showed sudo lshw *wierd characters* *-memory  *more charagers* *-bank:0
[13:57] <lsz> just

[14:02] <lsz> just unplug then plug, then it will be mounted...
[14:02] <harmental> i've been dealing with this since yesterday ...and nothing seems to work....

[14:37] <ForgeAus> everythign has gone from /etc/alternatives
[14:37] <ForgeAus> so links missing all over the place
[14:37]  * genii puts on a new pot of coffee and settles in
[14:37] <ForgeAus> working on getting some back
[14:37] <sub[t]rnl> ForgeAus➜ cool, ever get it sorted out?
[14:38] <ForgeAus> I'm learning and getting a few steps closer but I don't think I'd go as far as to say sorted out
[14:38] <ForgeAus> also a few other directories were turned into files too
[14:38] <ForgeAus> so not likely going to work in a hurry
[14:38] <ForgeAus> I need to identify which ones and fix them but not easily done
[14:39] <ForgeAus> too busy toying with andlinux :)
[14:39] <ForgeAus> (its nice too)
[14:39] <ForgeAus> but no desktop
[14:40] <ForgeAus> (its basically an interoperable kde for windows)
[14:40] <ForgeAus> well more than just kde more like kubuntu
[14:40] <ForgeAus> for example you can run kpackage directly on your desktop :)
[14:40] <ForgeAus> (that is your windows desktop)
[14:41] <ForgeAus> KDE4Win is similar I guess
[14:43] <ForgeAus> hmmm I wonder if they'll find a way to pass DirectX through Wine :)
[14:43] <ForgeAus> not that theres a need to really
[14:43] <ForgeAus> since you can run windows apps natively in the windows host shell :)
[14:45] <Xbehave> they wouldnt the wine devs want to replace windows API so i doubt theyd go out of thier way so that people break MS copyright,
[14:46] <ForgeAus> Xbehave? what do you mean?
[14:47] <ForgeAus> if your running AndLinux from within windows you already have DirectX capability, all you need for Wine to do is pick up on it and pass through ...
[14:47] <ForgeAus> no copyright issue there is there?
[14:47] <ForgeAus> (implementing DirectX in Wine may or may not be copyright issue I wouldn't know personally)
[14:48] <Xbehave> ah right i miss understood
[14:48] <psicobra> i'm back baby

[15:05] <_Angelus_> there is
[15:05] <_Angelus_> its called kde4

[15:21] <amik> hi, can someone help me out with detecting a wireless network?
[15:21] <BluesKaj> !wireless
[15:21] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[15:21] <Xbehave> o yeah i just got my name wrong and spammed somebody called juan oops
[15:23] <ctx144k> which pakackage include the default - (k)ubuntu - kernel?
[15:24] <amik> the thing is KNetworkManager at first showed three possible networks to connect to, but then I chose 'manual configuration', which managed to connect properly. However, I want to return to 'automatic' knetworkmanager operation, but now knetworkmanager doesn't show any wireless networks...
[15:24] <Xbehave> ctx144k:  linux-generic
[15:24] <amik> is there any way to 'undo' the manual configuration and have knetworkmanager do it's automatic thing like it did before?
[15:25] <ctx144k> upps sorry, i mean the kernel-source
[15:25] <lg188> oh kk
[15:26] <alf_> and while it freezes, caps lock is blinking.
[15:27] <lg188> somebody .js knowledge please private chat me ?
[15:27] <Xbehave> ctx144k: linux-source
[15:28] <ibou> is it possible to automatically launch knotes on boot ?
[15:28] <ctx144k> thx
[15:28] <_Angelus_> ibou: add it to .kde/Autostart
[15:29] <lg188> i think by just using it ...
[15:29] <ibou> _Angelus_: how ?
[15:29] <Xbehave> whats the point of hibernation in kubuntu?
[15:29] <ctx144k> Xbehave, so easy :-)
[15:29] <ctx144k> thx
[15:29] <Xbehave> np
[15:29] <_Angelus_> ibou: "echo "knotes" > ~/.kde/Autostart/Knotes.sh
[15:29] <_Angelus_> :)
[15:30] <Xbehave> if i hibernate i come back to the same desktop if i reboot i come back to the same desktop session. does hibernation let you boot faster?
[15:30] <muesli_> Xbehave: no, that's not true
[15:30] <_Angelus_> no Xbehave
[15:30] <ibou> angelus thanks
[15:30] <muesli_> Xbehave: it will restart the applications
[15:30] <lg188> Xbehave:  its a sort of saving your sesion in windos what its auto doeing in kubuntu so idk
[15:30] <ibou> _Angelus_: thanks
[15:31] <amik> anyone? (didn't find an answer in the docs)
[15:31] <_Angelus_> Xbehave: Suspend boots faster, because it stores an image in ram, hibernation stores and image in hard drive
[15:31] <muesli_> Xbehave: but with hibernation all applications will stay in the very state you left them
[15:31] <siofwolves> hi. my screen size in kbuntu is stuck at 640 x 480 there are no other sizes in Monitor & Display - System Settings. Any idea's ?
[15:31] <_Angelus_> so the fastest is Suspend, hibernation is as slow as booting up Xbehave
[15:32] <Xbehave> thx
[15:32] <lg188> siofwolves:  thats wierd i think
[15:33] <_Angelus_> no problem ibou
[15:34] <Daisuke_Ido> siofwolves: what video card and what driver?
[15:34] <ibou> _Angelus_: should i write #!/bin/sh on the line before "echo "knotes"" ?
[15:34] <siofwolves> ati radeon 9800 and defualt driver
[15:35] <Daisuke_Ido> and i know nothing about ati :\
[15:35] <Daisuke_Ido> sorry :(
[15:35] <Xbehave> lshw wont give me my ram speed, does anybody no a good guide so i make sure i by the right ram?
[15:35] <Daisuke_Ido> i would recommend running 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg' and setting the driver to ati
[15:35] <siofwolves> it did work normally, i was messing around with compiz and i think that may have something to do with it
[15:36] <lg188> ibou: try to update drivers ... or look for default screen i place of plug 'n play screen
[15:36] <_Angelus_> no ibou
[15:36] <Daisuke_Ido> Xbehave: do you know your processor and socket type?
[15:36] <siofwolves> i only installed kbutu yesterday, so i may just reinstall a bit later
[15:37] <Xbehave> Daisuke_Ido: not sure but i could probably find out
[15:38] <siofwolves> bbl
[15:40] <BluesKaj> kbutu eh ...
[15:41] <niall> is there any way to change the icons in kontact?
[15:41] <niall> the bigs ones on the left

[15:41] <BluesKaj> lookin configure kontact
[15:42] <BluesKaj> !pm
[15:42] <niall> I've looked
[15:42] <ubotu> Please ask your questions in the channel so that other people can also benefit AND help you. Please don't PM a user in the channel without asking first, some find it rude.
[15:43] <misticwarrior> I have a problem with a belkin desktop wireless card. When I plug it in my PCI port, kubuntu doesn't want to start... it stops at "detecting hardware drivers"... do you know why ?
[15:46] <Selanit> Question: occasionally my system freezes completely - will not respond to the mouse, the keyboard, and cannot be accessed over the network.  When this happens, the caps lock and scroll lock lights on the keyboard begin flashing.  What do the flashing lights indicate?  Kernel panic?
[15:48] <ibou> each time i launch kontakt, i have korganizers alarm deamon which is launched too. I don't want it and do not find any option to avoid that. Is there one ?
[15:48] <BluesKaj> Selanit, could be an Xorg prob
[15:51] <_Angelus_> i installed every kde4 package, and i still dont have a trash can
[15:51] <Xbehave> its a celeron M but im having dificulty finding the socket
[15:51] <Selanit> BluesKaj:  It usually happens when I have just run a modprobe on my network driver, which I have to do frequently.
[15:56] <BluesKaj> Selanit, why do you have to modprobe your network driver ..is it misconfigged ?
[15:56] <JoshOvki> _Angelus_: what happens in dophin when you try to go to   trash:/   ?
[15:57] <lg188> afk
[15:58] <Xbehave> if i dont install cpu freq controlling software is the laptop set to run in dynamic mode or will it be running full speed all the time
[15:58] <Selanit> Typically, my network stops functioning about 2-5 minutes after I boot.  I can get it to work again by running ifdown wlan0, rmmod rt61, and modprobe rt61.  But sometimes when I do that the whole system freezes.    I wish my network would just freaking work.
[15:58] <JoshOvki> Xbehave it is set to dynamic. But if you click the batter icon you can set what it does when plugged in and unplugged
[15:59] <BluesKaj> Selanit, is this a lan or wan , like an office or is it your home network?
[16:01] <Selanit> LAN - I've got a little linksys router hooked up to a cable modem.  All was well until my landlady re-did the stucco on the apartment building, at which time the cable outlet by the computer got disabled.  I had to move the router to the opposite end of the apartment, and switch to a wireless card in my desktop.
[16:01] <BluesKaj> oh i see it now an wan, ok
[16:01] <BluesKaj> bummer
[16:01] <Daisuke_Ido> well, technically a WLAN
[16:01] <Daisuke_Ido> :P
[16:02] <BluesKaj> !wireless | Selanit
[16:02] <ubotu> Selanit: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[16:02] <hansjd> hi there... i'm new to kubuntu, and i just downloaded the ATI driver from their webpage, and now i cant run the driver
[16:02] <Xbehave> JoshOvki: it does give me any options just when to suspedn /resume but aslong as its in dynamic i dont mind
[16:02] <Selanit> I went to a lot of trouble selecting my wireless card - I wound up with an Edimax EW-7128G, which has open source drivers.  But in order to get those open source drivers to function, I had to compile them manually and do a static configuration, and they still don't work reliably.
[16:03] <hansjd> shouldn't it just be sudo [file] ???
[16:03] <BluesKaj> hansjd, which ati card to you have ?
[16:03] <Selanit> And thank you for the link, but I've read all of those wifi docs and indeed written some of them.
[16:03] <psi_> hi all whats the command again mount a ntfs drive?
[16:03] <hansjd> BluesKaj:  x1600 mobility
[16:03] <Daisuke_Ido> the edimax is a ralink 2500 chipset, isn't it?
[16:03] <Selanit> It is an ralink chipset - hold on, lemme check the exact model
[16:04] <Selanit> It's an ralink rt61
[16:06] <Daisuke_Ido> that should work out of the box
[16:06] <Selanit> lspci says: 00:08.0 Network controller: RaLink RT2561/RT61 802.11g PCI
[16:06] <Selanit> And it didn't.
[16:06] <BluesKaj> hansjd, my advice is not to install the DL'd driver ...the proprietary ATI drivers don't work well on onboard/laptop graphics cards . You're better off trying the the restricted driver in system settings /advanced
[16:08] <hansjd> BluesKaj:  but they did work on my ubuntu installation i had...
[16:08] <Selanit> At the moment I'm using the CVS serialmonkey driver ...
[16:08] <Selanit> Maybe I should check to see if there's a new release in the last month or so.
[16:08] <hansjd> BluesKaj: now i just can't find out to install the drivers
[16:09] <hansjd> this is all i get when i try to install >sudo: ati-driver-installer-8-01-x86.x86_64.run: command not found<
[16:10] <BluesKaj> well hansjd, if you must ...the command is: ' ./ati-driver-installer-8-01-x86.x86_64.run '
[16:10] <hansjd> hmm... ok
[16:11] <hansjd> guess it's is different in kubuntu then :S
[16:11] <BluesKaj> .run files use the ./ command prefix
[16:13] <hansjd> root@hansjd-kubuntu:/home/hansjd# ./ati-driver-installer-8-01-x86.x86_64.run
[16:13] <hansjd> bash: ./ati-driver-installer-8-01-x86.x86_64.run: Permission denied
[16:13] <hansjd> doing something wrong?
[16:13] <Selanit> Nope, the rt61 driver hasn't been updated since last April.  Sigh.
[16:13] <LeeJunFan> is it package mtools that allows relabeling dos partitions?
[16:14] <acee1234> i cant get k3b to correctly burn a disk. it tells me it completed successfully untill i try to read the data and it finds none. i look at the back of the disk and it looks like it did a crap job writing with the banding
[16:14] <acee1234> any ideas
[16:15] <acee1234> if no ideas any suggestions where to ask
[16:15] <BluesKaj> hansjd, sudo /ati-driver-installer-8-01-x86.x86_64.run
[16:15] <BluesKaj> err sudo ./ati-driver-installer-8-01-x86.x86_64.run
[16:15] <Daisuke_Ido> acee1234: could be the drive, too
[16:15] <acee1234> Daisuke_Ido: works fine in windows boot
[16:16] <JuJuBee> Is there a way to lock the screensaver and desktop background so students cannot change it?
[16:17] <hansjd> BluesKaj: this is all i get... sudo: /ati-driver-installer-8-01-x86.x86_64.run: command not found
[16:17] <sigma_1234> is it marked at executable?
[16:18] <JoshOvki> hansjd sudo ./ati-driver-installer-8-01-x86.x86_64.run
[16:18] <JoshOvki> you have to remember that first dot
[16:18] <Daisuke_Ido> you are using the 64 bit version of kubuntu right?
[16:19] <hydrogen> JuJuBee: mm.. kiosk mode may allow you that extra bit of configuration
[16:19] <hydrogen> !find kiosk
[16:19] <ubotu> Found: kiosktool, datakiosk
[16:19] <hydrogen> !info kiosktool
[16:19] <ubotu> kiosktool (source: kiosktool): tool to configure the KDE kiosk framework. In component main, is optional. Version 1.0-1.1ubuntu5 (gutsy), package size 442 kB, installed size 1704 kB
[16:19] <hansjd> Daisuke_Ido: nope it is a x86 and a x86_64
[16:19] <hansjd> JoshOvki:  i have tried with dot also... same response
[16:19] <BluesKaj> hansjd, i corrected the command , but I guess you didn't see that  sudo ./ati-driver-installer-8-01-x86.x86_64.run
[16:20] <JuJuBee> hydrogen : will that take over systemsettings? or should I lock that?
[16:20] <hansjd> BluesKaj:  i tried that too
[16:20] <JoshOvki> ok, hansjed   sudo chmod 777 ati-driver-installer-8-01-x86.x86_64.run
[16:20] <JoshOvki> then run the sudo ./ati-driver-installer-8-01-x86.x86_64.run again
[16:21] <ibou> each time i launch kontakt, i have korganizers alarm deamon which is launched too. I don't want it and do not find any option to avoid that. Is there one ?
[16:21] <hansjd> JoshOvki: thanks alot
[16:21] <BluesKaj> hansjd, or you could get exe permission in properties by right clicking on the file
[16:21] <hansjd> it worked
[16:22]  * BluesKaj forgets ppl don't check for permissions
[16:22]  * JoshOvki agrees with BluesKaj
[16:22] <sigma_1234> ibou: i also want to do that
[16:23] <hansjd> BluesKaj: i have only tried ubuntu before this... i didn't have to check that there :/
[16:23] <BluesKaj> JoshOvki, what about chmod +x ...is that similar to chmod 777 ?
[16:24] <BluesKaj> hansen, well, this is kubuntu ... if you want the pleasures of kde , then you need to learn a few things is all :)
[16:24] <JoshOvki> BluesKaj, i think with  +x  it just gives all execute permissions, chmodding gives everyone read, write and execute
[16:24] <BluesKaj> oops sorry hansen
[16:25] <JuJuBee> hydrogen : you use kiosktool?
[16:25] <hydrogen> JuJuBee: I do not
[16:25] <JuJuBee> K
[16:25] <JuJuBee> Looks like "root" must be enabled to use it.
[16:25] <simion314> hi, how can i determine my boot partition?
[16:25] <BluesKaj> ok, JoshOvki , I'm the only user so I don't worry much about others :)
[16:26] <JoshOvki> BluesKaj: same here :) then why i use 777
[16:26] <JoshOvki> *thats
[16:26] <BluesKaj> hansjd , if kubuntu is too difficult you can always install gnome desktop , if you wish
[16:27] <Daisuke_Ido> there's also a great functionality-limited kde clone available
[16:28] <BluesKaj> ok JoshOvki , I'll make a note of that
[16:28] <ubuntu> hi all
[16:28] <SlimeyPete> hi.
[16:31] <ninHer> any ono isp user down here ?
[16:32] <abbe> hi channel
[16:33] <abbe> Is KDE 4.0.1 available in kubuntu 'gutsy' repositories ?
[16:33] <SlimeyPete> yes
[16:33] <SlimeyPete> !kde4
[16:33] <ubotu> KDE 4.0 is the latest major release of the K Desktop Environment. KDE 4.0 packages can be found at http://kubuntu.org/announcements/kde-4.0.php - More information can be found at http://www.kde.org/announcements/4.0/ - Support in #kubuntu-kde4
[16:33] <BluesKaj> !kde 4.0.1
[16:33] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about kde 4.0.1 - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[16:34] <abbe> SlimeyPete: thanks
[16:34] <BluesKaj> interesting
[16:34] <SlimeyPete> (the kde4 repos have been updated to 4.0.1)
[16:34] <abbe> SlimeyPete: another question, I'm currently using KDE 4 from PPAs and want to switch to gutsy repositories
[16:35] <abbe> SlimeyPete: can I simply remove all KDE4 packages, and comment out kubuntu-members-kde4 PPA, and then install all KDE4 packages, hmm...
[16:35] <abbe> Is this recommended ?
[16:35] <SlimeyPete> yes, I think that should work. You should ask in #kubuntu-kde4 - someone there may have done it themselves.
[16:36] <abbe> okay thanks
[16:36] <snarkster> ok i installoed kde4 but for some reason cant install amarok..
[16:38] <ForgeAus> I have myself an apt problem
[16:38] <ForgeAus> its trying to install ltsp-client-core
[16:38] <ForgeAus> that didn't work because I'm not an ltsp client
[16:38] <ForgeAus> which is fine but it keeps telling me its an unmet dependancy and won't let me skip installing it
[16:39] <ForgeAus> I can't remove it either since it isn't installed
[16:39] <JoshOvki> ForgeAus:  sudo apt-get install -f
[16:39] <Daisuke_Ido> ForgeAus: i hit a problem like that not too long ago
[16:39] <Daisuke_Ido> and JoshOvki, $50 says he's tried that
[16:39] <Joker7680> anyone with HAL experience?
[16:40] <ForgeAus> grrr no josh doing that wasn't to install it
[16:40] <ForgeAus> erm sorry, don't that WANTS to install it
[16:41] <Daisuke_Ido> ForgeAus: i think i actually went and did dpkg -r <package name from /var/cache/apt/archives/>
[16:41] <alex_> anyone know why i am forced to use the -nolapic boot option to get my kernel to load (duel core 64 but computer, running on Asus Crosshair Motherboard)
[16:41] <ForgeAus> but its not installed
[16:41] <Daisuke_Ido> ForgeAus: same issue here
[16:42] <Daisuke_Ido> but that got it to quit trying to install it
[16:43] <DareDevil_>  can anyone recomend an ircd. i want the most secure and the most stable and with most veriety options and control
[16:43] <ForgeAus> um tried it and complained that it isn't installed already
[16:44] <hydrogen> DareDevil_: you can't have all of those things
[16:44] <ForgeAus> hehe
[16:44] <lg188> ...
[16:44] <lg188> back
[16:44] <snarkster> so it appears that it is impossible to install amarok after you have installed the kde4.0 live cd

[16:46] <Alex135> _Shade_: install ubuntu restricted extras
[16:47] <ForgeAus> ahh fixed it
[16:47] <Alex135> _Shade_: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-restricted-extras
[16:47] <ForgeAus> all I had to do was dpkg -r the stuff that was complaining depended on it

[16:50] <Alex135> _Shade_: i am running ubuntu with KDE installed
[16:50] <lg188> how do you let a program know in a place where text should be that you mean a variable  in .js
[16:50] <Alex135> so esentially its Kubuntu, but it should all work the same
[16:51] <_Redondos_> When I try to put the "3D planet viewer" on my KDE 4 desktop it says: "could not load widget, 3d shaders not supported". How can I fix it?
[16:51] <snarkster> _Redondos_: your video driver isnt right

[16:54] <_Shade_> Alex135: how about the nvidia restricted drivers? can i still use them while on 64 bit box?
[16:54] <Alex135> _Shade_: you should be able to do that
[16:56] <_Shade_> Alex135: i persume it run in 32 bit mode since there's no 64 bit version (yet)
