[02:41] <Jucato> he can, but he has to go through Edgy first
[02:41] <kerry> lol
[02:41] <kerry> that will take forever
[02:41] <Jucato> (or install fresh if he's kept his /home on another partition)
[02:42] <filemover> id back up the whole OS so if anything happens you can go back
[02:43] <Ditte_> all right, forget about it...I'll live in the past until I buy a new PC:)
[02:43] <kerry> Ditte_: u dont realy have to install just upgrade while your doing your stuff then restart.its not like u are installing xin 98 then u want 2000
[02:44] <Jucato> there's another alternative. when they release 8.04 Hardy Heron, which is another LTS release, it might be possible to upgrade to it directly
[02:44] <filemover> this is my backup string you can just edit it it to suit
[02:44] <filemover> tar cvpjf /media/sda1/backup-28-08-07.tar.bz2 --exclude=/proc --exclude=/lost+found --exclude=/mnt --exclude=/sys --exclude=/media --exclude="/home/daffytheduck/Desktop/Ktorrent Downloads" /
[02:44] <Ditte_> I'm not even sure my PC is up to a contemporary version...this one's slow enough
[02:44] <kerry> Jucato: im in wiki ubuntu i cant fint the page how to install flash for konq
[02:44] <filemover> --exclude=whatever you dont want
[02:44] <Jucato> kerry: for 64-bit?
[02:44] <TimS> Jucato: I dont suppose you would know where I could get a deb for tightvnc server and viewer
[02:45] <kerry> Jucato: euh  i have no idea
[02:45] <kerry> Jucato: it was something name flash non free
[02:45] <Jucato> kerry: umm... if you're not using a 64-bit computer, you can just install flashplugin-nonfree
[02:45] <Jucato> !info tightvncserver

[02:45] <Ditte_> kerry: btw...you use kubuntu 7, but you're still on 32 bit?
[02:46] <kerry> yes thats the name
[02:46] <Jucato> TimS: that one ?
[02:46] <TimS> Well, with windows, it comes with a GUI with more options
[02:46] <Jucato> !info xtightvncviewer
[02:46] <ubotu> xtightvncviewer: virtual network computing client software for X. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.2.9-21 (feisty), package size 59 kB, installed size 176 kB
[02:47] <kerry> Ditte_: i have no idea if im on 64 or 32
[02:47] <Jucato> Ditte_: the Kubuntu versions don't have anything to do with 32/64-bit.
[02:47] <zen> anybody knows about quantum mechanics applied to computer science??
[02:47] <TimS> Jucato: I installed tightvnc-java but dont know how to launch it.
[02:47] <Jucato> kerry: what kind of processor/CPU do you have?
[02:47] <Jucato> TimS: um..sorry can't help you there
[02:47] <kerry> Jucato: dont know

[02:48] <Jucato> kerry: can you type /sysinfo right now? in here
[02:48] <kerry>  /sysinfo
[02:48] <kerry> lol
[02:48] <Jucato> er.. w/o the space
[02:48] <Ditte_> jucato: I know, but it's odd for somebody with a new PC to run on 32 bits, isn't it?
[02:48] <kerry> Sysinfo for 'linux': Linux 2.6.20-16-generic running KDE 3.5.6, CPU: AMDSempron3000+ at 1000 MHz (1991 bogomips), , RAM: 425/440MB, 122 proc's, 9.2h up
[02:48] <kerry> sick
[02:48] <Jucato> Ditte_: not really.
[02:49] <Jucato> not everyone is into 64-bit or dual cores :)
[02:49] <kerry> Jucato: how do i know if it's 32 or 64?
[02:49] <Ditte_> jucato: now excuse this newbie...but aren't ALL processor sold in the past year and a half 64-bit?
[02:49] <Jucato> kerry: I guess that would be a 32-bit CPU. and your CPU is AMD Sempron 3000 (at least according to that)
[02:49] <Jucato> Ditte_: nope
[02:50] <manolo> jo
[02:50] <Ditte_> jucato: uh??? can you name a 32-bit CPU one can buy today?
[02:50] <kerry> is 64 better then 32?
[02:50] <zen> what is Echelon ??

[02:50] <ubotu> zen: #kubuntu is the official Kubuntu support channel, for all Kubuntu-related support questions. Please use #kubuntu-offtopic for general chatter. Thanks!
[02:50] <Jucato> kerry: don't really know
[02:51] <Ditte_> kerry: 64 can use more memory, 32 is limited to 3.something Gb
[02:51] <Jucato> 4GB RAM actually
[02:51] <Ditte_> on the other hand, a vast majority of programs are not available on 64 bits. Hence my win2000 dual boot
[02:51] <kerry> oh so i can put my ram to 3GIG?
[02:51] <Jucato> Ditte_: the fact that Flash doesn't even support 64-bit yet, and that there are lots of software that don't take advantage of 64-bit, shows that it's far form being a standard yet
[02:52] <Jucato> kerry: if your motherboard supports it
[02:52] <kerry> Jucato: how do i know if it soports it?
[02:52] <Ditte_> jucato: Flash and opera, and rosegarden, and, and, and. Still, it's today's technology
[02:52] <Jucato> kerry: your motherboard's manual :)
[02:52] <kerry> Jucato: i have to look it up on the net?
[02:52] <Ditte_> 32-bit is yesterday's
[02:53] <Jucato> Ditte_: I would disagree. but we don't actually try to convince people in here with our hardware preferences
[02:53] <kerry> net that is.my dog had the manuel for a chu toy becaus my chiken fell on it :(
[02:53] <Jucato> all I can say is that with the current state of software supporting or making use of 64-bit CPU's, 32-bit is still today, and 64-bit is still a not so soon tomorrow
[02:54] <filemover> Beryl Poops all over vista
[02:54] <Jucato> anyway...
[02:54] <kerry> Ditte_: 2000 is stoneage
[02:54] <zen> anybody there?
[02:54] <zen> to talk about
[02:54] <Ditte_> I actually don't understand why Adobe *refuses* to even *consider* a 64-bit version for the future
[02:55] <Ditte_> it isn't like 32 bits are going to be around forever, whatever their status might be today
[02:55] <kerry> Ditte_: long live 32
[02:55] <Jucato> Ditte_: take it up with them. the fact is it's not only Adobe.
[02:55] <Ditte_> kerry: *free' stoneage:)
[02:55] <kerry> lol
[02:56] <Jucato> anyway, this is hardly the proper place for hardware discussions unrelated to Kubuntu
[02:56] <kerry> Jucato: i looking how to conect linux on my xp
[02:56] <Jucato> kerry: what do you mean?
[02:56] <Jucato> zen: this is not the place to talk about quantum mechanics, or even computer science

[02:59] <dbglt> since upgrading to gusty, there seems to be something wrong with my network: knetworkmanager is not showing any available wireless networks (although I know at least two are in range). Any ideas what the problem could be? (Or where I need to olook...)
[02:59] <kerry> dbglt: go to #ubuntu+1
[03:00] <ardchoille> in gnome I could do "gnome-open filename" and have gnome open the file with the proper file associated app. How do I do that in kde?
[03:00] <dbglt> kerry, yes, I have tried. The problem is... they are ubuntu, not kubuntu focused
[03:00] <dbglt> doubt anyone would have any idea
[03:00] <Jucato> dbglt: they are Gutsy focused
[03:00] <Jucato> for all *buntus
[03:00] <Jucato> (see this channel's topic)
[03:00] <dbglt> yes, but very few use kubuntu even, and then more obscure to knetworkmanager
[03:01] <dbglt> I appreciate the help though...
[03:01] <Jucato> hm.. it's a sunday, that could be one reason...
[03:01] <kerry> dbglt: so why u went to gusty so fast n u know it wasnt finish yet?
[03:01] <tehk> Ah done! Kde4 svn time
[03:01] <dbglt> kerry, I have no idea what you are asking.
[03:01] <kerry> Jucato: how do u downgrade?
[03:01] <Jucato> kerry: dunno
[03:02] <dbglt> I'm quite happy with gusty as it is, it is just an incremental upgrade from what I have seen
[03:02] <ardchoille> kerry: Don't think you can
[03:02] <dbglt> there is just the minor issue of wireless connectivity
[03:02] <tehk> I have been using gutsy since the first tribe, stable here
[03:03] <|Cugel|> I don't think the final will fix the wireless problems.
[03:03] <kerry> ardchoille: i tink u can.lie 2months ago i saw someone ask the question she's not getting to downgrade and a op help her out by giving the command etc
[03:05] <kerry> Ditte_: if u stil alive when u go back to 2000 go to utube and type linux 3D and choose the second video to see what beryl can do
[03:06] <Ditte_> kerry: I'll try:)
[03:07] <kerry> Jucato: i run beryl but all i get was a white screen i could spin the cube an only see the caps but the desktop are all white
[03:08] <Jucato> #ubuntu-effects might be a good place to ask
[03:08] <kerry> ok
[03:09] <kerry> Jucato: why dont u use beryl or compiz?
[03:09] <TimS> Anyone here use VNC?
[03:09] <TimS> kerry: for Beryl help ask in #compiz-fusion
[03:09] <Jucato> kerry: no particular reason (other than not working properly w/ KDE at times)
[03:10] <Jucato> TimS: there's also #ubuntu-effects which is a bit more specific for Ubuntu + Beryl/Compiz/Compiz-Fusion
[03:10] <kerry> Jucato: i find it works 95%good once u install your drivers
[03:10] <Jucato> it's not about drivers. it's about KDE integration
[03:10] <kerry> Jucato: no bugs etc
[03:10] <Jucato> but that's just me
[03:11] <Ax-Ax> I want to remove sticky keys :(
[03:12] <Dragnslcr> Isn't kwin supposed to have its own compositing stuff sometime soon?
[03:12] <Jucato> yeah, in KDE 4
[03:13] <Jucato> Ax-Ax: System Settings -> Accessibility?
[03:13] <eye_> i found a theme with a gtkrc file how to apply that theme?
[03:14] <Jucato> that is a theme for GTK apps
[03:14] <Jucato> not KDE/Qt apps
[03:15] <eye_> thats true, i'm on gnome
[03:15] <Ax-Ax> #ubuntu
[03:15] <Jucato> !changethemes
[03:15] <ubotu> To change your themes, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuEyeCandy.  Kubuntu users should visit https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CustomizeKubuntu.
[03:16] <eye_> thnx
[03:16] <Jucato> and #ubuntu for more GNOME help (you are in #kubuntu )
[03:18] <kerry> Jucato: no one in ffects how do i get to compiz i forgot the name of the ch
[03:18] <Jucato> #compiz-fusion I think
[03:18] <bisho> bye
[03:18] <Jucato> it's a sunday...
[03:21] <kerry> Jucato: becaus it a sunday theres no one?
[03:22] <Darkrift412> is there a build in way for me to setup a keymap so that if i wanted to hold (example) ctrl alt + space it would send space over and over really fast? this is for a program that reads holding space as a single press
[03:22] <Jucato> kerry: because it's a sunday, most people would probably be afk (although online)
[03:22] <Darkrift412> kinda like an old school console turbo button function
[03:22] <tony_> Can anyone help me with rar files?
[03:23] <Jucato> tony_: what's the problem?
[03:23] <TimS> Jucato: I am a UT2004 player, how can I enable global shortcuts, like Amarok whilst playing?
[03:23] <kerry> tony sudo apt-get unrar
[03:23] <Jucato> TimS: um... don't know really
[03:23] <TimS> Damn
[03:23] <kerry> tony sudo apt-get install unrar
[03:23] <kerry> sorry
[03:24] <Jucato> (or pick unrar from Add/Remove Programs or Adept Manager)
[03:24] <tony_> Jucato: When I try to open a rar file in Ark it gives the following error: The utility unrar-free is not in your PATH
[03:24] <Jucato> tony_: see the command kerry gave
[03:24] <Jucato> "sudo apt-get install unrar" (or pick unrar from Add/Remove Programs or Adept Manager)
[03:25] <dthacker> what does rar stand for anyway?
[03:25] <Jucato> um... ask rarlabs :)
[03:25] <kerry> dthacker: google that we dont know
[03:25] <grul_> i think it stands for rar archive or something silly
[03:25] <kerry> dthacker: google is your best friend
[03:26] <pag> dthacker, "Roshal ARchive" (second line of Wikipedia's article ;)
[03:26] <grul_> roshal archive :p
[03:26] <Jucato> In computing, RAR is a proprietary file format for data compression and archiving, developed by Eugene Roshal (hence the name RAR: Roshal ARchive).
[03:26] <kerry> lol
[03:26] <Darkrift412> anyone got any ideas for me?
[03:26] <kerry> oh my
[03:26] <TimS> I dont suppose anyone here plays UT2004 do they?
[03:26] <TimS> I /really/ want to get Unrealed to work
[03:26] <dthacker> tnx: I have been rar-enlightened. :)
[03:27] <Ax-Ax> GAHAHAH
[03:27] <Ax-Ax> I want to uninstall sticky keys
[03:27] <Jucato> um.. easy on the caps please
[03:27] <kerry> TimS: wa is it?
[03:27] <Jucato> Ax-Ax: you've tried to disable them?
[03:27] <TimS> Its the Unreal Editor
[03:27] <Ax-Ax> Yes, all the time
[03:27] <Darkrift412> sticky keys? thats easy, uninstall windows and install linux
[03:27] <Ax-Ax> Darkrift412, Im on Kubuntu
[03:27] <Darkrift412> linux has sticky keys?
[03:28] <Jucato> yes
[03:28] <Ax-Ax> Yes...
[03:28] <Jucato> Ax-Ax: where did you try to disable them?
[03:28] <kerry> dthacker: :D
[03:28] <Ax-Ax> System something
[03:28] <Jucato> System Settings -> Accessiblity ?
[03:28] <tony_> kerry: Thank you. Works perfectly.
[03:28] <Ax-Ax> But it pops up "Do you want to activate sticky keys?"
[03:29] <tony_> Jucato: Thank you. Works perfectly.
[03:29] <Jucato> Ax-Ax: did you choose "Deactivate all AccessX features and gestures" in that popup?
[03:29] <Ax-Ax> No such choice :(
[03:29] <Jucato> Ax-Ax: there is
[03:30] <Darkrift412> is there a build in way for me to setup a keymap so that if i wanted to hold (example) ctrl alt + space it would send space over and over really fast? this is for a program that reads holding space as a single press
[03:30] <Ax-Ax> Activate, Don't Activate
[03:30] <dthacker> TimS: keybindings can be set in System Settings> Keyboard and Mouse > Keyboard Shortcuts
[03:30] <Jucato> Ax-Ax: at the bottom: When a gesture was used: Show this confirmation dialog
[03:30] <gemidjy> how can I recreate the Kubuntu default Kmenu ?
[03:30] <Ax-Ax> There is n such box
[03:30] <Ax-Ax> :(
 But it pops up "Do you want to activate sticky keys?"
[03:30] <TimS> dthacker: I have them set up, but they wont work while Unreal is running in full screen
[03:30] <Ax-Ax> Yes!
[03:31] <Jucato> Ax-Ax: doesn't it ask you Continue or Cancel?
[03:31] <dthacker> TimS: Did you set them on the tab called "Global Shortcuts"?
[03:31] <Ax-Ax> Help, Activate , Don't Activate
[03:31] <Ax-Ax> oh brb
[03:31] <Jucato> hm... how does that box popup?
[03:32] <Ax-Ax> from nowere
[03:32] <Jucato> because that's not the standard sticky keys dialog for KDE
[03:32] <Ax-Ax> if i press shift five times
[03:32] <Jucato> same here
[03:32] <dthacker> Jucato: hit shift a bunch 'o times....
[03:32] <Jucato> it has Continue and Cancel buttons only at the buttom
[03:32] <kerry> Jucato: is there a dead file in the repos?everytime i install linux and fetch updates adept crash at the end of the instalation.when i correct this i install more things it never crash again
[03:32] <Jucato> dthacker: I know. but Ax-Ax's dialog box seem to have different options
[03:33] <dthacker> Jucato: ok
[03:33] <Jucato> kerry: might be a wrong line in your sources.list file (repository list)
[03:33] <The_Guide> hey, anybody know a channel where I can get hints on assembly language (Sparc) ?
[03:33] <TimS> dthacker: I set them on the global for Amarok, so I can change the song right now while typing, but not with a game running
[03:34] <kerry> Jucato: yeah but this is the 3rd pc adept crash on by fetching the updates
[03:34] <Jucato> kerry: dunno. maybe or maybe not. you can run "sudo apt-get update" and see where it crashes
[03:34] <Jucato> or stops
[03:35] <dthacker> TimS: Ok, I was wondering whether you set them on the applications tab, and that was why UT was overriding them
[03:35] <Jucato> Ax-Ax: this is what I get: http://jucato.org/stuff/sticky.png
[03:44] <kerry> Jucato: check out this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lawkc3jH3ws.the first time i heard about linux was in 2000 my sister install mandrake on the pc i didnt understand nothing i completly wipout the hdd that had linux :D this video is the reson i came back to linux and how easy it became to use
[03:49] <filemover> ive got my printer on at the moment and I want to know if there is a way to safely remove it from the system ie "Safely remove hardware icon" or right click unmount etc
[04:09] <harmental> hey guys...how can i make (k)ubuntu to automatically mount usb drives at startup (id rather prefer not to include them in the fstab)....
[04:11] <ashfaq> Hello
[04:12] <ashfaq> Well I am switching to kde, does it have any advantages over gnome
[04:12] <clau85> ashfaq: yes :)
[04:12] <clau85> ashfaq: i would suggest to just try it out
[04:13] <ardchoille> ashfaq: When I switched, I noticed that kde apps are better integrated, they communicate better with each other and kde just looks and feels better. But, that's all personal preference :)
[04:13] <clau85> a main advantage is it's high configurability
[04:13] <ashfaq> Last week I had installed ubuntu fiesty, but being a new bee, I was dissapointed, now on advise I will give a hand to try this interface
[04:13] <bjwebb> hi
[04:13] <bjwebb> does log out do something different to ctrl+alt+backspace?
[04:13] <clau85> ashfaq: why were you disappointed?
[04:13] <clau85> bjwebb:
[04:13] <clau85> yes
[04:13] <bjwebb> what?
[04:14] <ashfaq> clau85: the resolution to my screen was not adjustable!
[04:14] <clau85> bjwebb: ctrl+alt+backspace kills the x server and restarts it
[04:14] <ardchoille> bjwebb: log out logs you out, ctrl+alt+backspace restarts xorg
[04:14] <bjwebb> rite
[04:14] <clau85> logout save sessions etc etc... this is the way to do it
[04:14] <bjwebb> its just i press ctrl+alt+backspace most of the time.....
[04:14] <ashfaq> I am using a amd x64 pc with nvidia and a 19" wide screen monitor
[04:14] <clau85> ashfaq: hmm... i don't think that'll change much just by installing kde
[04:15] <ashfaq> But you might have some tricks to adjust the desktop right
[04:15] <bjwebb> anyhow, when i log out of a user with a low display resolution, then log into me, i get his display resolution
[04:16] <ashfaq> I need a screen resolution of 1440x900, a voice messenger, a good torrent client supporting and sanving session with resume capability
[04:16] <clau85> bjwebb: that sucks :) i don't know how you could change that... maybe assure yourself in contorl center that the right resolution is selected
[04:17] <bjwebb> clau85: well to fix it this time i restarted x
[04:17] <clau85> ashfaq: abou resolution - don't really know; torrent - ktorrent
[04:17] <bjwebb> but before i only had up to his resolution :S
[04:17] <clau85> bjwebb: you can try logging out, pressing alt+e (restarts x also), then logging in again
[04:17] <ashfaq> Its getting downloaded I mean kde I will have the feel in an hour or so, before that I wanted to check the irc support and it feels good
[04:17] <ardchoille> ashfaq: You can open a terminal and type this to fix display resolution: sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[04:18] <bjwebb> clau85: hmm but what's the problem in the first place?
[04:18] <bjwebb> hmm how do i use aptitude to list all the packages in a certain repository?
[04:19] <clau85> bjwebb: sorry, i don't know what could be wrong.. maybe someone else knows?
[04:19] <ashfaq> ardchoille:  what would be the outcome, as I can paste this command, I am new to linux language that is why?
[04:19] <ardchoille> ashfaq: That command will launch the configurator and allow you to change the screen resolution.
[04:21] <bjwebb> anyone know how to do that for aptitude?
[04:21] <ashfaq> ardchoille: Should I give a try right now, the packages are being downloaded, and I am online, with your help ay be be I will have a better view of kde also
[04:22] <sboyer> pensacola...you there?
[04:23] <ardchoille> ashfaq: You can reconfigure the resolution at any time, but I'd wait until everything else is done first. And, once you reconfigure x, you'll have to restart x to see the new resolution.
[04:23] <ashfaq> ardchoille: Just checked I had done this previously but no change although through some other command
[04:23] <ardchoille> ashfaq: You probably didn't restartx
[04:24] <ashfaq> After cotrrecting the resolution values I had restarted but the screen resolution icon gave no improved options tha the available 1024 and 24 bit
[04:24] <ashfaq> How to restart x
[04:24] <andrea__> sorry... how to install compiz in kubuntu gutsy?
[04:25] <ardchoille> ashfaq: Restarting x will close kde. open a terminal and do: sudo /etc/init.d/kdm restart
[04:26] <bjwebb> andrea__: its in repos iirc
[04:26] <bjwebb> look for it in adept
[04:27] <ardchoille> andrea__: join #ubuntu-effects
[04:27] <ashfaq> ardchoille: I am presently in GDM, and downloading packages for kdm, should I go ahead with your command
[04:27] <andrea__> thanks
[04:28] <ardchoille> ashfaq: I'd wait until downloads/installs are done. But that command just reconfigures x, it's independent of gnome and kde.
[04:28] <ashfaq> If I can go ahead without causing any problem, I will do it, right now!
[04:30] <ashfaq> ardchoille: Tell me changing the desktop enviro to kde will give me some added advantages, to learn and operate with ease, you know I am a new bee
[04:30] <gora> dfg
[04:31] <gora> It's nice to be here!!!
[04:31] <ashfaq> ardchoille: Your inputs will give the required confidence, as today I was realy nervous, and the idea struck to give a hand to kde and than if  found suitable continue or forget linux
[04:31] <gora> hello all
[04:33] <ashfaq> ardchoille: Have I lost you?
[04:33] <ardchoille> ashfaq: Well, there are lots of distros. if one doesn't work, simply try another. I have helped over 100 people switch to Linux and haven't found anyone who couldn't find a distro that didn't work for them. I like kde and Kubuntu is awesome. Don't give up :)
[04:33] <ashfaq> I dont want to, I am not happy with the windows monopoly although I had been using it for 10 years now
[04:33] <ardchoille> ashfaq: And, you're in the best place for help with it
[04:34] <saeed> hi all
[04:34] <andrea__> register <ciaobu>
[04:34] <gora> hi
[04:34] <clau85> ashfaq: you may have some difficulties setting everything up the way you want, but when you have it, you'll love linux and never want to look back :)
[04:34] <saeed> how do I start compiz-fusion?
[04:34] <ashfaq> ardchoille:  Yes I am having that feel,
[04:34] <gora> Beryl in Kubuntu is OK?
[04:34] <saeed> I have installed all the compiz-fusion packages
[04:34] <saeed> and would like to start it
[04:34] <ardchoille> saeed: join #ubuntu-effects
[04:34] <andrea__> set hide email on
[04:35] <gora> IT's someone from Romania?
[04:35] <ashfaq> clau85: I had bought this machine with the idea of having linux and learning it, but somehow the initial setbacks had brought those negative thoughts, I hope in you folks company I will be hable to get rid of vista forever
[04:36] <saeed> how do install compiz-fusion icon?
[04:36] <andrea__> set email<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[04:36] <ardchoille> andrea__: You need to type "/nickserv" at the beginning of that line
[04:36] <ardchoille> saeed: join #ubuntu-effects
[04:36] <saeed> I went there
[04:37] <saeed> no body is answering
[04:37] <saeed> I was hoping someone would help here
[04:37] <andrea__> link <ndrea><EMAIL_ADDRESS>[04:37] <clau85> ashfaq: i had also had trouble with some things, but i didn't want to give up, as _it_is_ possible to do it, never even thought of going back to windows
[04:37] <ashfaq> ardchoille: Hello you busy with some one else?
[04:37] <clau85> we'll do it!
[04:37] <ardchoille> ashfaq: no
[04:38] <ashfaq> clau85: I will try my best to stick, but help me resolve the immediate issues
[04:39] <saeed> so no one is able to help with compiz-fusion?
[04:39] <ashfaq> ardchoille: Have you given thought to my my querries,
[04:39] <TimS> Anyone here use steam under wine
[04:39] <ardchoille> ashfaq: Which queries?
[04:39] <ashfaq> That means you missed my last lines
[04:40] <ardchoille> ashfaq: Some of your last lines were not queries
[04:40] <holyguyver> hey guys my compuer crashed during an upgrade through apt-get, so now I need to clear the apt-get tasks before it will let me use the program, so what cammandline do I use to clear the apt-get tasks?
[04:40] <ashfaq> ardchoille: gaim and irc is also new to me, I am familiar with yahoo, google talk, but the commands here I had only learned to enter the room that all

[04:40] <ubotu> saeed: Compiz (compositing window manager) and XGL (X server architecture layered on top of OpenGL) - Howto at http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager - Help in #ubuntu-effects
[04:42] <holyguyver> did you guys see my question?
[04:42] <clau85> holyguyver: maybe apt-get -f install would help?
[04:43] <redoo> does anybody know how i can configure pidgin to send messages with "alt+s" instead of return?
[04:43] <saeed> so no one here knows ANYTHING about compiz-fusion, except sending people to other links with no REAL info?
[04:43] <saeed> huh?
[04:43] <holyguyver> yes, that is what I was looking for, I had typed in "sudo apt-get f" from memory & it didn't work, so that is why I came here to ask someone what it actually was :p Thanks
[04:43] <gnomefreak> saeed: #ubuntu-effects
[04:44] <clau85> holyguyver: you welcome ;)
[04:44] <clau85> redoo: not sure if here is the right place to ask questions regarding gnome programs :)
[04:44] <saeed> lol
[04:45] <gnomefreak> saeed: keep in mind compiz-fusion is not in feisty edgy dapper so it will not be supported in this channel if you are running gutsy join #ubuntu+1 if not join #ubuntu-effects
[04:45] <clau85> because probably KDE-people would use kopete anyway
[04:45] <saeed> LOL, ubuntu-effects is EMPTY, no one's answering
[04:45] <gnomefreak> saeed: than i suggest you read the docs in the topic
[04:45] <clau85> saeed: try later maybe?
[04:45] <clau85> or google
[04:45] <clau85> ;)
[04:46] <holyguyver> clue85 it said "dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem." then when I tried that it said "pkg: requested operation requires superuser privilege" even though I did sudo
[04:47] <holyguyver> I think I got it working now, thanks :)
[04:48] <redoo> clau85: pidgin isnt only a gnome, is it?
[04:49] <clau85> redoo: no, but it's a gtk program... and used mostly by #ubuntu people so maybe you should try there
[04:49] <holyguyver> I haven't been able to get pidgin to install on ubuntu
[04:49] <redoo> clau85: ok thanks

[05:37] <|Cugel|> sboyer: open it with k3b?
[05:37] <NickPresta> sboyer, I assume you're talking about files that end in 'bin' (file.bin). Usually, you would `chmod +x file.bin` and then run `./file.bin`
[05:37] <|Cugel|> Or ark?

[05:54] <thomas_> where in kubuntu can I modify the users shown at the loginmanager? I tried kcontrol > login manager but to no avail
[05:57] <Hamra> thomas_: im not sure about this, but did you try user management, in system settings
[05:57] <thomas_> Hamra: i'll have a look
[05:57] <Hamra> thomas_: just noticed, in login manager, there is the option of hiding a user, in the users tab
[05:59] <thomas_> ah thats what i need
[05:59] <thomas_> Hamra: I only see a list that says hidden users
[06:00] <thomas_> but I cant hide users?
[06:00] <ardchoille> thomas_: You don't want any users to be listed at all?
[06:01] <thomas_> ardchoille: only &
[06:01] <thomas_> 1
[06:01] <thomas_> 1 sec
[06:01] <thomas_> going to login screen
[06:01] <ardchoille> thomas_: open kcontrol, go to System > Login Manager > Convenience tab and see the "Preselect User" section

[06:06] <syndaily> Hey dudes! Anybody want to help me with an xserver issue?
[06:06] <NickPresta> syndaily, we would all love to help you. If you explain the issue in greater detail, we might be able to ;)
[06:07] <tro> i've enabled font anti-aliasing in kcontrol, but the fonts aren't hinted properly in gtk apps. is this a common problem? if so, what should i do?
[06:08] <NickPresta> tro, in the same Appearance configuration screen, go to the GTK Styles and Fonts menu. Is "Use my KDE fonts in GTK applications" selected?
[06:08] <syndaily> NickPresta: Nice one. the issue is my boot and shutdown screens aren't showing. I've used envy to get nvidia's latest and greatest, this solved a few prob's but not the boot logo
[06:09] <tro> NickPresta: yep
[06:09] <NickPresta> syndaily, do you mean the screen that shows the Kubuntu logo and it has a progress bar under the logo?
[06:09] <NickPresta> tro, sorry, I don't know what else the problem could be =\ Perhaps wait for someone else who can help
[06:09] <syndaily> yep
[06:10] <tro> NickPresta: ok. i'm googling meanwhile, but i can't find anything useful yet. do you think i should try to install gnome-control-panel or something and tinker with that?
[06:10] <holyguyver> is it possible that a kde theme could use less resorces then a diiferent kde theme?
[06:11] <Hamra> holyguyver: i've been wondering the same question
[06:11] <TimS> Anyone here use ManDVD? If it outputs the Video_TS and Audio_TS and its under 700mb can I burn this to a cd

[06:11] <atanation> help needed...
[06:11] <atanation> newbie here
[06:13] <tro> TimS: probably. i use k9copy and that's what it does to make a DVD
[06:13] <tro> TimS: try it, I guess :)
[06:13] <TimS> Okay, tro do you know any good programs that will rip a dvd into one long avi file?

[06:15] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about wine-doors - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi

[06:16] <tony_> I have an empty folder in my Home Directory named <mount point>. It wasn't in there before. Can I delete it?
[06:17] <NickPresta> TimS, http://www.wine-doors.org/wordpress/?page_id=3  there is a deb available
[06:17] <TimS> Yeah I have it, I was trying to see if it was in the repos for a friend
[06:17] <TimS> I got it from Getdeb
[06:17] <Hamra> tony_: you need to make sure it isnt a mount point, like its name hints, check "disk & filesystems" in system settings
[06:19] <tony_> Hamra: I have that open. What am I looking for?
[06:20] <Hamra> tony_: see if any partition is using this folder under the tab called "mount point"
[06:22] <tony_> Hamra: It would say "Home Folder" ?
[06:25] <Hamra> tony_: if this folder is in the home folder, it should look like "/home/some-user/mount point"
[06:26] <tony_> Hamra: Nothing like that in System Settings. When I try to move it to the trash it says I need to be root.
[06:29] <Varanger> I am using kde as non-root, whenever I try a admin application, it prompts for the invoking user password. Is there a way it can make kde prompts for the root password?
[06:29] <Hamra> tony_: if it says so, this folder is used to mount the partition with a mountpoint "home folder", you cant delete it, it would be recommended though that you change the mount point  to "/media/some-name", you should click administrator mode button in the disk and filesystems settings, and right-click the partition, then click modify, and  change the mount point.

[06:58] <NickPresta> Juacom99, it should come with at least as many language packs as the previous version

[07:00] <RivaeAerya> Upgrade succeeded! How do i set all the kde theme settings to the kubuntu default? (like icons, colorscheme, widget style..)
[07:01] <NickPresta> RivaeAerya, you upgraded to Gutsy?
[07:01] <RivaeAerya> NickPresta: yep
[07:01] <enzo_> Just curious...
[07:01] <enzo_> With Dapper ending LTS in December, 2007, Does 7.10 become the new LTS?
[07:02] <NickPresta> enzo_, nope. Gutsy+1 is LTS, AFAIK
[07:02] <enzo_> NickPresta: Thanks
[07:02] <Hamra> Stopa: do you happen to know the IP of the router? if so put it in the box under the routes tab in knetworkmanger
[07:02] <soulchild> hey all
[07:02] <NickPresta> hi, soulchild
[07:02] <RivaeAerya> anyone?
[07:02] <RivaeAerya> How do i set all the kde theme settings to the kubuntu default? (like icons, colorscheme, widget style..)
[07:03] <soulchild> i just installed kubunt-core but have no icons on my desktop,... how can i make the trash and home folder visible ???
[07:03] <NickPresta> RivaeAerya, you should ask in #ubuntu+1 if you're running Gutsy
[07:03] <RivaeAerya> NickPresta: no one, absolutely _no one_, is active there right now
[07:04] <NickPresta> RivaeAerya, well, I would assume anyone running Gutsy and is in the channel is also in #ubuntu+1 and if they aren't active there, they probably aren't active here :)
[07:04] <Stopa> how do you whisper? and yes, i know the IP of router, the thing is, after i tried to configure connections (automatic IP etc) it suddenly disappared from knetworkmanager so i can't connect anywhere, so im looking for some console solution
[07:04] <soulchild> is any package needed to have home and trash icon on my desktop ????
[07:04] <RivaeAerya> NickPresta: I think it's the same in any ubuntu version
[07:04] <RivaeAerya> NickPresta: i just want to reset the artwork
[07:05] <Hamra> Stopa: sorry, maybe someone else can help you.
[07:05] <soulchild> how do i change the kdm theme ???
[07:05] <NickPresta> !artwork

[07:10] <asteroid> hi
[07:10] <soulchild> my trash icon does not change if i empty it , any idea ???
[07:11] <asteroid> I just install a 7.04, and I looking for iceape (seamonkey licensed for deb'like). In wich depot can I find it ?
[07:12] <Hamra> hi all, few hours ago the power to PC went down, abnormal turn off, there doesnt seem to be anything wrong, but is there anything i should do on my behalf for my system's safety
[07:13] <CPrompt^> Hamra : put a surge protector on it or even a UPS syste ;)
[07:14] <CPrompt^> soulchild : depends on your icon theme.  there might not be a difference between the full or empty icons
[07:17] <RivaeAerya> What are the default icons, colorscheme, and other artwork for Kubuntu Gutsy?
[07:18] <NickPresta> RivaeAerya, there is a package, kubuntu-default-settings, which holds the default settings for the artwork and such
[07:18] <itch_> Hello guys. If i accidentaly deleted my /etc/apache2 directory, how can I reinstall all the default files that were in that directory ?
[07:18] <RivaeAerya> NickPresta: says it's already installed
[07:19] <NickPresta> try: sudo dpkg-reconfigure kubuntu-default-settings
[07:19] <RivaeAerya> NickPresta: did that. and now?
[07:19] <itch_> Hmmm. I`m afraid that will change ALL my settings ..
[07:20] <NickPresta> RivaeAerya, Restart X? I'm not sure. I've never reset my artwork settings...
[07:22] <CPrompt^> itch_ : I thinnk NickPresta was talking to RivaAerya ;)
[07:23] <itch_> CPrompt^ Yeh, I get the same feeling .. :)
[07:23] <CPrompt^> itch_ not sure about getting the default settings.  what about just uninstalling the package and then re-installing?  you've already lost everything
[07:23] <Hamra> thats why we should include the adressee name, which makes konversation flash red when addressed!
[07:23] <CPrompt^> ;)
[07:23] <NickPresta> yes, itch_, I was talking to Rivae, sorry :)
[07:24] <itch_> CPrompt^ : already tried that. It`s not working
[07:24] <NickPresta> itch_, when you install, you have to use the --purge option to tell it to get rid of the config files. then try reinstalling
[07:24] <CPrompt^> itch_ : does the package install without breaking?
[07:25] <CPrompt^> itch_ : yeah.  Nick is right.  forgot about that.  my bad :(
[07:25] <itch_> Ok, let my give it a try
[07:27] <WindowSmasher> Hi all.  I had no luck with kmilo.  Any other suggestions for getting my brightness keys on my keyboard working?
[07:27] <NickPresta> WindowSmasher, in Gutsy?
[07:27] <WindowSmasher> yes
[07:27] <NickPresta> WindowSmasher, #ubuntu+1 should be able to assist you better
[07:27] <itch_> NickPresta : I`m not sure I`m getting this. I use --purge when I install apache2 pkg or when I remove it ? Because it`s not working either way
[07:28] <WindowSmasher> thank you.  Forgot it wasn't final yet
[07:29] <NickPresta> itch_, `sudo apt-get --purge remove apache2`. It should say it's removing apache2* (with the asterisks)
[07:29] <Hamra> just out of curiosity, what is apache? what is it used for?
[07:29] <NickPresta> You might have to actually delete /etc/apache2
[07:29] <NickPresta> !info apache2
[07:29] <ubotu> apache2: Next generation, scalable, extendable web server. In component main, is optional. Version 2.2.3-3.2ubuntu0.1 (feisty), package size 37 kB, installed size 84 kB
[07:30] <CPrompt^> Hamra : web server
[07:30] <CPrompt^> NickPresta : i think he said that he *did* delete the /etc/apache2
[07:30] <NickPresta> Oh. I thought he deleted the contents of /etc/apache2 (like httpd.conf and such). I don't know. I always compile Apache myself..
[07:31] <itch_> NickPresta : ok, so I did the --purge remove thing, I reinstall it, but I still don`t have the /apache folder :(
[07:31] <Hamra> thanks
[07:31] <CPrompt^> itch_ : you don't have /etc/apache2 anymore?
[07:31] <itch_> NickPresta : I deleted my /etc/apache dir by mistake and now I need it back.
[07:32] <itch_> */apache2
[07:32] <NickPresta> ah okay.
[07:33] <NickPresta> well, aside from someone installing apache2 and giving you the contents of their /etc/apache2, I don't know of a fix. You could always compile Apache and such yourself?
[07:34] <itch_> I guess I can, if I don`t have a choice ..
[07:34] <NickPresta> let me install apache2
[07:34] <itch_> So, anyone here has Apache2 ?
[07:34] <CPrompt^> itch_ firing up my web server now.  brb
[07:35] <NickPresta> or get it from CPrompt^. I would rather not install the apache2 package if I can avoid it.
[07:35] <itch_> Sure
[07:36] <RivaeAerya> How do i set the KDE artwork back to normal without deleting all my settings that i still need?
[07:45] <melomane> hi,how can i reconnect to a PPPoe account automaticly, when it is disconnected
[07:45] <melomane> i use pon command
[07:45] <Scunizi> Is there a way to share contact/address data in Evolution via Kontact? I figured out how to share the same calendar between the two and figured it would be just as easy for the Contacts.... NOT!
[07:45] <itch_> CPrompt^ : how about that /etc/apache2 thing ..
[07:46] <CPrompt^> itch_ : wife came home with groceries.  had a "honey-do" real quick
[07:46] <CPrompt^> so....I have mine configured with certain mods. you want it anyway?
[07:47] <itch_> Sure
[07:47] <itch_> CPrompt^ say hello to the wife :D
[07:47] <CPrompt^> ok.  let me copy it over to this computer.  it'll be just a sec.  webserver is ooollllddd :)
[07:53] <CPrompt^> itch_ : ok.  got the files.  you have a place i can upload them to?
[07:55] <scienceboy> is there any to spoeed up how fast applications load?
[07:56] <itch_> CPrompt^ Not really :(
[07:56] <CPrompt^> itch_ are you running Koversation?
[07:57] <itch_> CPrompt^ : neah, Bitchx
[07:57] <CPrompt^> itch_ : i can see if the "send file" thing works here if you want
[07:57] <Scunizi> Is there any way to use Kontact to view contact info in Evolution without exporting data.. I want a direct link to share the contact data.
[07:57] <itch_> Sure
[07:57] <Scunizi> how
[07:58] <CPrompt^> itch_ should be getting a request for me to be able to send you the files
[07:58] <arash> Can anyone recommend a DC++ client for Linux?
[07:59] <arash> or if somone knows how to get dc-qt to allow more than 1 slot
[07:59] <itch_> CPrompt^ : i`m not sure how it`s done in BX :(
[08:00] <CPrompt^> itch_ : let me just upload it to my works website and I'll send you a like to the tar file.  cool?
[08:00] <itch_> CPrompt^ : perfect :D

[08:05] <snowdonkey> Hi.  I have hard drive I would like to use externally with an enclosure.  When I format the drive as FAT32 qtparted shows the device type as "unkow" and I'm unable to mount it.  Does this mean my hard drive doesn't support FAT32?
[08:07] <Scunizi> snowdonkey, how large is the drive?
[08:07] <snowdonkey> scunizi: 500GB
[08:08] <Scunizi> snowdonkey, not sure, but that might be the issue.. since it isn't currently working try formatting it in ext3 then see if it's readable/mountabel.
[08:09] <snowdonkey> scunizi: Yes, I tried formatting it as ext3 and NTFS -- both worked.  However I'd like to be able to share files between Linux and Windows.  NTFS isn't writable.
[08:09] <eduardo> Hola
[08:09] <Scunizi> snowdonkey, ext3 is read/writable in windows with an additional driver.
[08:10] <Scunizi> snowdonkey, however, if you use it on different machines you might be better off partitioning the drive in 2 or 3 then trying fat32 again..
[08:10] <tro> i just installed ubuntu-desktop to try gnome, but it's not even loading. i log in and it freezes at the 'ubuntu' screen. what can i do to login to gnome successfully?
[08:11] <snowdonkey> scunizi: Sorry, you mean try formatting it as ext2 or ext3 again?
[08:11] <Scunizi> tro sound like you need to add "irqpoll" to the end of the kernel line in /boot/grub/menu.lst
[08:12] <snowdonkey> scunizi: Thx for the tip of accessing ext3 under windows.  I found some info about it.
[08:12] <tro> Scunizi: i'll try that. right now both gnome-settings-daemon and gnome-session use 100% cpu and just sit there
[08:12] <specialbuddy> what do I do if I don't have my 7.04 cd and I want to upgrade?
[08:12] <Scunizi> snowdonkey, k
[08:13] <Scunizi> specialbuddy, update-manager -d
[08:13] <CPrompt^> itch_ you still here?
[08:13] <itch_> CPrompt^ : yes mate
[08:13] <CPrompt^> sorry.  couldn't find the ftp password  LOL
[08:13] <CPrompt^> itch_ here's the link http://systelprinting.com/files/
[08:13] <itch_> CPrompt^ : hahha
[08:14] <specialbuddy> update-manager -d doesn't do anything
[08:14] <omarian> i am trying to install the ati drivers on Kubuntu 7.04. Used method 1 from unofficial wiki and the system got stuck at a black screen with a blinking cursor when i rebooted. I had to reconfigure xorg again to restore the default drivers. Anybody have any idea why it might have happened
[08:14] <itch_> CPrompt^ : thanks :)
[08:15] <CPrompt^> itch_ np
[08:15] <newsense07> specialbuddy: did ya run it from a console or from run, think ya gotta do it from run
[08:15] <specialbuddy> console
[08:16] <newsense07> specialbuddy: try from run command
[08:16] <specialbuddy> well I'm having issues because I don't have the 7.04 cd
[08:16] <specialbuddy> Failed to fetch cdrom:[Kubuntu 7.04 _Feisty Fawn_ - Release i386 (20070417)] /dists/feisty/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz Please use apt-cdrom to make this CD-ROM recognized by APT. apt-get update cannot be used to add new CD-ROMs
[08:17] <CPrompt^> omarian : could have just screwed up x.org.  Have you tried Envy?
[08:17] <omarian> cprompt: i haven't. method 1 worked for me on alaptop though. anyway how do i go about using envy? what is it?
[08:18] <newsense07> specialbuddy: cant you just disable the cdrom as a repo and fetch from internet?
[08:18] <CPrompt^> !envy
[08:18] <ubotu> envy is a script that may leave you envious of those who have not used it, use the resticted manager to install binary drivers or use the instructions on the wiki, this script may break your machine very badly!
[08:18] <specialbuddy> uh
[08:18] <specialbuddy> maybe
[08:18] <CPrompt^> omarian : http://albertomilone.com/nvidia_scripts1.html
[08:19] <omarian> nvidia scripts? im using an ati card.
[08:19] <omarian> it seems like it works with ati too. sorry just saw that
[08:19] <CPrompt^> omarian : just click on it.  I promise it works for ATI as well ;)
[08:19] <CPrompt^> :)
[08:20] <CPrompt^> itch_ : did you get those files?
[08:20] <Hamra> CPrompt^>: i have a nvidia card, so thanks for the information, i'll try envy tommorow
[08:21] <CPrompt^> Hamra : np.  It worked for me great.  Saw the exact card, downloaded drivers and configured x.org for me.
[08:25] <tro> Scunizi: didn't work. i tried with noacpitimer too
[08:25] <Doctor_Nick> shit
[08:25] <tro> Scunizi: it just keeps using 100% and not making any progress
[08:25] <Doctor_Nick> how do i turn off error messages in wine?
[08:25] <omarian> am trying envy as we speak
[08:27] <omarian> cprompt: im getting an error with envy
[08:27] <CPrompt^> omarian : what is the error?
[08:28] <omarian> You graphic card is supported by the legacy driver
[08:28] <omarian> ATI's legacy driver does not support your operative system
[08:28] <omarian> cprompt: should I try and install it manually?
[08:30] <CPrompt^> omarian : might have to.  not sure why envy is not downloading the driver and installing it for you though
[08:30] <omarian> im trying the manual way
[08:31] <omarian> gave me an error at first and asked me to log at some log in the var...folder
[08:31] <omarian> tried manual install again and is downloading some package

[08:46] <Omarian> cprompt...still there?
[08:48] <Omarian> CPrompt: you still there man?
[08:50] <Omarian> has anybody had issues with the unofficial ati driver for ubuntu?
[08:51] <Omarian> issues like, reboot and then system gets stuck at a black screen with a cursor
[08:54] <Doctor_Nick> Omarian: yeah
[08:54] <NickPresta> Omarian, the free ati driver or the proprietary driver?
[08:55] <Omarian> its the proprietary one
[08:55] <Omarian> from the unofficial wiki
[08:55] <Omarian> let me get the link
[08:55] <Omarian> http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Feisty_Installation_Guide
[08:55] <NickPresta> and this is with Feisty?
[08:55] <Omarian> yes
[08:55] <CPrompt^> Omarian : kind of in and out but I have never had a problem with the ATI drivers through Envy.  Sorry I can't help.  have you tried "startx"??
[08:56] <Omarian> no this is not with envy
[08:56] <Omarian> this is following method 1 of that guide
[08:56] <Omarian> startx is the command to start the gui obviously
[08:56] <NickPresta> and you've done all the "Pre-Installation" stuff like disabling the composite extension?
[08:56] <Omarian> but when i try that in one of the terminals when i get the blank screen, it says it cannot find display 0
[08:57] <Omarian> hmmm
[08:57] <Hamra> CPrompt^ :  i tried to install envy from a deb package, it said something about dependencies with python that is not installed and a few other programs :S
[08:57] <CPrompt^> Omarian : what kind of video card do you have?
[08:57] <Omarian> Radeon 8500
[08:58] <Omarian> NickPresta: i don't think i did that. isn't that supposed to be for newer cards?
[08:58] <CPrompt^> Hamra : just make a note of the dependencies and install all of them, then try the Envy install again.
[08:58] <faLUCE> s there an audio editor for linux comparable to samplitude?
[08:58] <jigyasu> hello
[08:58] <Hamra> CPrompt^: Ok, i'll try that
[08:59] <NickPresta> Omarian, I'm not sure. It might be worth a shot?
[08:59] <Omarian> ok
[09:00] <Omarian> CPrompt: where do i look for the error logs?
[09:01] <wightstraker> Can anyone help me with a Grub error 22?
[09:01] <wightstraker> All the online docs describe it as part of a dual boot system problem but I'm running kubuntu exclusively
[09:01] <blendtux> could somebody do a version on my nick
[09:02] <CPrompt^> Omarian : most logs are kept in /var/log
[09:03] <Hamra> when i tried to apt-get a package, i saw it have other dependencies, is there a way of telling apt-get to download any dependncies needed with this package?
[09:03] <Omarian> Hamra: i think it is sudo apt-get install -f
[09:03] <NickPresta> -f install
[09:03] <wightstraker> Anyone?
[09:04] <CPrompt^> wightstraker : can you post your menu.lst on pastebin?
[09:04] <sayers> How do I remove something from the remote:/ directory
[09:05] <NickPresta> wightstraker, the only thing that comes to me is that you have the wrong root partition set...
[09:05] <Hamra> Omarion : thanks, its downloading all dependencies
[09:05] <wightstraker> CPrompt^: I don't have any way to copy my menu.lst, I can only access in recovery mode
[09:06] <Omarian> welcome
[09:06] <wightstraker> NickPresta: I think that might be the problem; I have kubuntu installed on one drive and a second FAT32 drive; maybe grub is trying to boot from the wrong drive?
[09:06] <ronnie> hey I just loaded skype, & wanted it for web cam full screen chat, like I herd it can, but can only see it's for phone calls?
[09:06] <CPrompt^> wightstraker : bummer.  let me think for a second.  is this a new install?
[09:06] <wightstraker> Yeah
[09:07] <wightstraker> Just today
[09:07] <CPrompt^> wightstraker : might want to give it another go then.  sounds like either it formated into the wrong file type or you put grub on the partition and not the MBR
[09:07] <wightstraker> Okay
[09:08] <wightstraker> Thanks, CPrompt^ and NickPresta
[09:08] <jigyasu> I have problem with my volume
[09:08] <CPrompt^> wightstraker : np
[09:08] <CPrompt^> jigyasu : and that would be?
[09:08] <NickPresta> wightstraker, well, if you can, check the line that says something like (http://pastebin.ca/736683). Check the root location. Try different options (hd0,0), etc. Try hd0,0 first and work your way up, one at a time
[09:08] <Omarian> CPrompt: i am looking at the last log. Do you want to take a look at it?
[09:09] <jigyasu> amarok plays songs at low vol even when the volume is set to full
[09:09] <Ax-Ax> Mixer?
[09:09] <jigyasu> I ran alsamixer
[09:09] <jigyasu> nothing is muted
[09:09] <ronnie> did I download the wrong skype?, this ones 4 phone calls, where do i find the web cam options?
[09:09] <jigyasu> surprisingly helix has no probs with volume
[09:09] <CPrompt^> wightstraker : to follow up what NickPresta says, check the device.map file and see what your (hd0) says.  Or it might have (hd1)
[09:10] <CPrompt^> jigyasu : sorry.  I've never ran ALSA mixer.
[09:11] <jigyasu> any ideas what can cause vol to go so low
[09:11] <jigyasu> its just barely audible
[09:11] <jigyasu> on amarok
[09:11] <NickPresta> jigyasu, if you're sure all your audio channels are at 100% volume and amarok is set to 100%, check the hardware. Perhaps a loose cable?
[09:11] <NickPresta> unless it is an amarok problem exclusively
[09:12] <CPrompt^> jigyasu : not really.  I've never had a problem with Amarok except for it crashing for no reason LOL
[09:12] <jigyasu> NickPresta, I checked that, but helix players is playing songs ok
[09:12] <ronnie> can any plz put up a link for webcam chat using skype, not the one 4 phone calls,!!
[09:12] <sredna> is apt-get dist-upgrade the way to update from feisty to gutsy?
[09:13] <NickPresta> sredna, I believe the preferred method is "update-manager -d" or http://tinyurl.com/32785o
[09:13] <Omarian> CPrompt: do you know how to add color to only one line in menu.lst?
[09:14] <xevious> ronnie: what kind of webcam do you have?
[09:14] <sredna> NickPresta: ty
[09:14] <ronnie> don't know why it matters? but it's a vimicro
[09:15] <CPrompt^> Omarian : not sure what you mean??
[09:15] <Scunizi> ronnie, but skype linux doesn't support webcams
[09:15] <xevious> ronnie: do you use kopete for instant messaging? because that has support for webcams
[09:16] <Hamra> i dont have a fast connection, and sometimes i would like to pause a download to open a site in a hurry then resume it, is there a way of pausing adept or apt-get?
[09:16] <CPrompt^> Omarian : do you mean what it shows when Grub loads?  Can't make one line different.  Just have choices for colors of background and text
[09:16] <Omarian> CPrompt: I am trying to customize the boot menu. Am dual booting windows and kubuntu. What I want to do is add a description for the OS and then list the selectable option below so you can select what OS to boot in. What I am trying to do is make the description colorful. I know how to add color to the whole boot menu but not one line.
[09:17] <Omarian> CPrompt: yes, that's what i mean
[09:17] <ronnie> oh ok, thx, yes my cam works well under kopete, just wanted to try skypes fullscreen, thx for knowlege
[09:17] <ronnie> : )
[09:17] <CPrompt^> Omarian : nah.  Can't make the "Windows" section different from the "Linux" section.
[09:17] <NickPresta> Hamra, there is no "pause" button, as far as I know, but check out: http://kubuntuforums.net/forums/index.php?topic=3084190.0;wap2
[09:17] <CPrompt^> Omarian : you can change the title which is what shows.  I have mine to say "Winders" and "Groovy cool Linux"  :)
[09:18] <CPrompt^> Omarian : there's a list of colors you can choose though.
[09:18] <xevious> CPrompt^: how about "Winblows"
[09:18] <xevious> and make it brown
[09:18] <CPrompt^> xevious :  :)
[09:18] <Omarian> CPrompt: hehehe
[09:19] <xevious> any kde/compiz-fusion users here?
[09:19] <Omarian> CPrompt: but is the title a difference color from the rest of the line items?
[09:19] <NickPresta> xevious, I was, what's up?
[09:19] <xevious> NickPresta: why "was"?
[09:20] <CPrompt^> Omarian : only when selected
[09:20] <NickPresta> xevious, there is/was a bug with CF and my screensaver. My SS would only cover ~50% of my screen and sometimes wouldn't even load, so I went back to Beryl. Aside from that, I was happy with CF for the most part
[09:20] <CPrompt^> Omarian : you can change the box around the menu and the colors of the "non-chosen" items.  Then you have the option of what colors the "highlited" section and colors are
[09:20] <Omarian> CPrompt: right. I already know how to do that. I wanted to change the section colors. Is there a way to have rainbow colors, so that each letter is a different color?
[09:20] <CPrompt^> Omarian : kind of limited on the colors but here they are : http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/html_node/color.html
[09:21] <Omarian> CPrompt: yes that's the manual i looked at
[09:21] <CPrompt^> Omarian : that's all you get  LOL.  As I said...limited colors
[09:21] <Omarian> CPrompt: np
[09:21] <Omarian> CPrompt: did you want to take a look at my log for the ati driver installation?
[09:22] <CPrompt^> Omarian : sure. Not sure how much help I can be but I'll give it a go.
[09:22] <Omarian> CPrompt: how do i drop it in a pastebin?
[09:23] <CPrompt^> just copy and paste unfortunately
[09:23] <xevious> NickPresta: which screensaver?
[09:23] <Omarian> CPrompt: like a regular message?
[09:23] <CPrompt^> Omarian : yep
[09:23] <CPrompt^> Omarian : hang on
[09:24] <NickPresta> xevious, any of them I believe. I use the BSOD screensaver but others wouldn't work either...
[09:24] <CPrompt^> Omarian : this is the site you need to post it to : http://pastebin.com/
[09:24] <NickPresta> Omarian, alternately, you can upload a file: http://pastebin.ca/upload.php
[09:24] <CPrompt^> ooo....good one NickPresta.  Didn't know that ;)
[09:24] <Hamra> what is a restricted driver?
[09:25] <Omarian> CPrompt: http://pastebin.com/m7f557108
[09:25] <xevious> alrighty.
[09:27] <neothecat> i just installed ubuntu on vmware.  and even though i can get anywhere on the internet from the host and vmware session, i can't seem to ssh form host->session nor from session->host.
[09:27] <trpr> dang. i want to get the config dialog for the guru superkaramba plugin working. says it needs pyqt4. just installed python-qt4 package. no effect :(
[09:28] <Omarian> CPrompt: I think the important line is the one where it says: Caught signal 11. Server aborting
[09:28] <trpr> probably have the wrong version of python installed. i haven't seen a single fortune, though that requirement is satisfied
[09:28] <CPrompt^> Omarian : ok.  FF just crashed for some reason  LOL  restarting
[09:29] <Omarian> CPrompt: weird
[09:29] <Omarian> CPrompt: you should give Opera a try. Its not bad.
[09:30] <CPrompt^> Omarian : what kind of card is this again?
[09:30] <Omarian> CPrompt: it is an 8500 LE
[09:32] <CPrompt^> Omarian : hmmm...is this a fresh install?
[09:33] <Omarian> CPrompt: yes
[09:33] <Omarian> CPrompt: 3 days old
[09:34] <CPrompt^> Omarian : try this.  cd to /etc/X11/ and edit xorg.conf.  Change the Section "Device" where it has the ATI driver listed and change it to vesa.  Reboot and see what happens
[09:34] <savetheWorld> !ubotu fb
[09:34] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about fb - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[09:35] <Hamra> im looking at the gutsy cd download page, and wondering, does the desktop CD upgrade from feisty to gutsy or does a new fresh installation?
[09:35] <CPrompt^> Omarian : if that does nothing might have to run dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[09:35] <Omarian> CPrompt: ok. I have to try reinstalling the driver again though because last I tried with envy it messed it up. I had to revert to the xorg default
[09:35] <Omarian> CPrompt: that's what i did
[09:35] <Omarian> twice already
[09:36] <CPrompt^> Omarian : changing it to Vesa didn't work?
[09:36] <Omarian> CPrompt: what is vesa anyway?
[09:36] <CPrompt^> Omarian : generic video driver.
[09:36] <CPrompt^> !vesa
[09:36] <savetheWorld> older video standard
[09:36] <ubotu> vesa is the default video driver if X can't find a better one. Also see !x
[09:36] <CPrompt^> Omarian : if vesa doesn't work, then something else might be the problem
[09:40] <bbeck_> Does anyone have a clue when the next KDE 4 Beta will be available for Ubuntu?  I'm really looking forward to it.
[09:40] <cloakable> Yeah
[09:40] <cloakable> ESP as the previous beta doesn't really work :/
[09:41] <Les_Caesars> Find Files/Folders is crap; it gives WAY too many false negatives. I want a search that is THOROUGH. I don't care if it's slow. Where do I go to do a thorough search?
[09:41] <bbeck_> cloakable: It seemed to work alright here, got to try out the new Oxygen style, and most importantly Kate.
[09:42] <bbeck_> Les_Caesars: what are you searching for?
[09:42] <Les_Caesars> a file which has "oo" in it.
[09:42] <CPrompt^> Les_Caesars : command line "locate" does a good job
[09:42] <CPrompt^> Les_Caesars : within a document?
[09:42] <bbeck_> Les_Caesars: can't you do a grep -r 'oo' *
[09:42] <Les_Caesars> in the title.
[09:43] <SanityInAnarchy> knetworkmanager no longer shows me wireless, at all. (After a few hibernates, reloading that module, etc.)
[09:43] <cloakable> bbeck_: Ahh
[09:43] <SanityInAnarchy> A reboot would probably fix it, but I want to know if there's anything I can do to force it to see them now (without rebooting)
[09:43] <schiste> !apt
[09:43] <ubotu> 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)
[09:43] <cloakable> bbeck_: How did you get it working? Oo.
[09:43] <schiste> !adept
[09:43] <ubotu> adept is the Kubuntu package manager. Howto: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AdeptHowto
[09:43] <schiste> hmmm
[09:43] <Les_Caesars> hm. Thanks
[09:43] <bbeck_> Les_Caesars: my mistake the grep will just look through the files.
[09:43] <bbeck_> You can use the find command though.
[09:44] <bbeck_> cloakable: How'd I get kate to work?
[09:44] <Les_Caesars> it's just very frustrating when it doesn't even find the files that match the criteria in the bloody folder I specified
[09:44] <schiste> !help
[09:44] <ubotu> I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots
[09:44] <cloakable> bbeck_: KDE4
[09:44] <bbeck_> Les_Caesars: I very rarely use the gui tools for searching.  It seems much easier to use command line.
[09:45] <bbeck_> cloakable: I followed the instructions, then installed the latest kde4-* packages.
[09:45] <cloakable> bbeck_: I got two huge blobs saying 'Failed to Load Object' and not much else.
[09:45] <bbeck_> cloakable: Ah, those are plasma errors, I'm afraid I got those too.
[09:46] <bbeck_> cloakable: The next beta will have plasma at a much better stage of development.
[09:46] <cloakable> Ahh
[09:46] <cloakable> So no K menu :P
[09:47] <aaroncampbell> Does anyone know where I can find instructions for allowing my SVN repos to be checked out across my network?
[09:47] <cloakable> But when is the beta being packaged? :P
[09:47] <bbeck_> cloakable: The K-menu won't be in this latest tagged beta either.  I think it's being finished now, or was finished late this week.
[09:47] <cloakable> :/
[09:47] <bbeck_> cloakable: The beta was tagged Monday if I recall rightly.
[09:47] <cloakable> bbeck_: Ahh.
[09:51] <Les_Caesars> is there a way to have locate look in a specific directory?
[09:51] <Les_Caesars> -d <path> brings an error: "Is a directory" because it wants a database
[09:53] <bbeck_> aaroncampbell: You should check out chapter 6 of the svn documentation (http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.4/svn.serverconfig.html)
[09:55] <holyguyver> hey archoille I have some great news
[09:55] <bbeck_> Les_Caesars: are you still looking for a file with oo in the name?
[09:55] <Les_Caesars> bbeck_: yes
[09:56] <bbeck_> Try this at the command line: find -name '*oo*'
[09:56] <NickPresta> and for a specific directory: find directory -name "*oo*"
[09:56] <holyguyver> archoille remeber how my ext hhd would not get out of ro well I tried mounting it in xubuntu & bash said that I need to run ntfsfix on linux to have it mount in rw otherwise it will mount in ro :)
[09:56] <Les_Caesars> and how do I make it case insensitive?
[09:56] <sstchur> when I first installed kubuntu 7.10 rc, I got this nifty little "restricted drivers manager" icon in my system tray.  It is gone now though; how can I get it back?
[09:57] <holyguyver> I meant ardchoille
[09:57] <bbeck_> Les_Caesars: -iname
[09:57] <NickPresta> Les_Caesars, use -iname instead of name
[09:57] <NickPresta> heh. beat by bbeck_ again :P
[09:57] <ardchoille> holyguyver: ?
[09:58] <Les_Caesars> thanks
[09:58] <holyguyver> ardchoille I have some wonderful news, remeber how my ext hhd would not get out of ro well I tried mounting it in xubuntu & bash said that I need to run ntfsfix on linux to have it mount in rw otherwise it will mount in ro :)
[09:59] <Les_Caesars> how do I exclude strings?
[09:59] <ardchoille> holyguyver: Glad you got that sorted.
[10:00] <holyguyver> ardchoille, now if those other 3 with the same proglem comes in & can help them out :-p
[10:00] <ardchoille> cool
[10:01] <xevious> wow this tuxfamily.org repo is slow
[10:03] <david_> hello
[10:04] <ScorpKing> hi david_
[10:05] <ScorpKing> how can i specify more than one mouse in xorg.conf? or should that be added somewhere else?
[10:07] <sub[t] rnl> heya Scorp
[10:07] <ScorpKing> hi :D
[10:07] <sub[t] rnl> :P
[10:07] <sub[t] rnl> yeah, /etc/xorg.conf is where you specify your mouse, touchpad, what have you
[10:08] <ardchoille> sub[t] rnl: /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[10:08] <sub[t] rnl> oops, yeah, what ardch said
[10:08] <ScorpKing> one ps2 and a usb. the usb works and /var/log/messages shows the ps2 and usb both being picked up
[10:09] <ScorpKing> so if i just add another mouse entry set in xorg.conf pointing to the second mouse /dev/input/input1 for example it should work?
[10:11] <sub[t] rnl> hrm, not too sure with more than one
[10:11] <sub[t] rnl> I'm thinking its /dev/input/mice though
[10:12] <ScorpKing> hehe. /mice is the default. /input0 is the keyboard. can't remember what the p2s mouse has been reported as. it's on my gilfriends computer and i'll only see her this comming weekend again.
[10:12] <kristjan_> ScorpKing: try "sudo Xorg -configure"
[10:12] <ScorpKing> i did. no joy.
[10:13] <kristjan_> ScorpKing: ?right now?
[10:13] <ScorpKing> no
[10:13] <kristjan_> ScorpKing: nevermind then

[10:23] <ScorpKing> holyguyver: we're all happy. :D and well done.
[10:23] <ScorpKing> kristjan_: ok. one sec.
[10:23] <delight> how come the kde 3.5.8 is not offizially announced on the kde-website ?
[10:23] <delight> officially ;)
[10:24] <kristjan_> delight: ask in #kde ?
[10:24] <delight> just asked cause gutsy got it already ... thats why
[10:24] <ScorpKing> kristjan_: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/40656/
[10:25] <NickPresta> delight, 3.5.8 was tagged on the 8th and should be announced on kde.org tomorrow (the 15th)
[10:25] <NickPresta> delight, http://www.kde.org/announcements/changelogs/changelog3_5_7to3_5_8.php
[10:25] <delight> i see ;) thnx NickPresta
[10:25] <kristjan_> ScorpKing: I can see your logitech ps2 mouse, but where is your touchpad?
[10:26] <xevious> well that was interesting
[10:26] <xevious> running compiz --replace just totally didn't work
[10:26] <delight> thnx for the changelogs i had googled them up before .. because of curiosity ;)
[10:26] <kristjan_> xevious: #compiz-fusion or #ubuntu-effects
[10:27] <xevious> yup
[10:27] <ScorpKing> kristjan_: isn't that the first one?
[10:28] <ScorpKing> kristjan_: logitec is the external mouse plugged in on the docking station.
[10:28] <kristjan_> ScorpKing: nope, example with usb mouse and touchpad: http://pastebin.com/d5b77250f
[10:30] <kristjan_> ScorpKing: does the touchpad work normally - scrolling, doubletapping, etc.
[10:30] <ScorpKing> hmm... no idea then. my touchpad must be somewhere else then. it's a old laptop btw
[10:30] <ScorpKing> yes
[10:31] <ScorpKing> and it only has 2 buttons
[10:31] <kristjan_> ScorpKing: so the problem is that ps2 mouse does not function?
[10:31] <ScorpKing> yes but i can see it there.
[10:32] <kristjan_> ScorpKing: paste your xorg.conf
[10:32] <ScorpKing> ok
[10:33] <ScorpKing> kristjan_: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/40657/
[10:34] <xevious> does Kubuntu install an X server with compositing by default, or do i have to change that to support compiz-fusion?
[10:34] <kristjan_> ScorpKing: I see, there is nothing about your touchpad - could your touchpad act like mouse?
[10:35] <ScorpKing> yes, that's what it does
[10:35] <kristjan_> ScorpKing: can you turn it off somehow?
[10:37] <ScorpKing> uhm. no. i unplugged the ps2 mouse and .../prog/devices still shows a ps2 mouse so it must be the onboard one then.
[10:37] <ScorpKing> maybe the docking station is faulty.
[10:37] <kristjan_> ScorpKing: no, the touchpad acts as mouse then :-)
[10:38] <ScorpKing> true
[10:38] <kristjan_> ScorpKing: what's the touchpad model?
[10:38] <ScorpKing> no idea.
[10:39] <ScorpKing> laptop is toshiba portege 7200 series
[10:39] <sredna> version upgrade failed, what now?
[10:39] <kristjan_> ScorpKing: have you tried googling for "linux and your laptop model"?
[10:39] <kristjan_> ScorpKing: maybe someone has the same problem
[10:39] <ScorpKing> no yet. let me try that.

[10:44] <hellcattrav> nah I want to figure out how to do it once I reinstall Fedora..
[10:44] <leon> hellcattrav: you're in a Kubuntu channel try installing Kubuntu or try a RedHat channel
[10:44] <Scunizi> hellcattrav, maybe a Fedora channel would be more informative.. sorry can't h

[10:58] <sredna> trying to upgrade, every time i run the version upgrade it requires more space. First it required about 600M. I uninstalled OOo and amarok, freeing 700M. Then it claimed that it needed additionally 24.7M. I uninstalled some more apps, but now it claims 284M extra, so this feels like a bad path

[10:58] <ScorpKing> kristjan_: no luck so far. it might be IRQ conflict. i also have /dev/psaux and /dev/input/mice. how can i check if it's /dev/psaux?
[10:58] <sredna> will this leave my system broken? and how do i fix it?????
[10:59] <ScorpKing> sredna: get more space
[11:00] <kristjan_> ScorpKing: I lack the knowledge to give you any reasonable advice beyond making xorg.conf ;-)
[11:00] <sredna> ScorpKing: but it will just want more then, i tried that 3 times
[11:00] <koshtarmak> ScorpKing: ls -l /dev/input/mice /dev/psaux
[11:00] <sredna> and frankly, i don't know what to uninstall anymore
[11:00] <ScorpKing> kristjan_: lol. thanks anyway
[11:00] <koshtarmak> one of them might be a link
[11:01] <kristjan_> ScorpKing: the problem here seems to be that "cat /proc/bus/input/devices" shows touchpad as if it was ps2 mouse
[11:01] <Scunizi> boinc31M13, did you delete them or "trash" them.  If they are in the trash can you can put them back where they belong.  :P
[11:05] <saeed> anybody knows why superkaramba disappear after a reboot?
[11:05] <ScorpKing> no
[11:05] <angel> Hey y'all .. i need help for Adsl connections
[11:06] <|Cugel|> angel: well I have adsl.
[11:06] <frojnd> sdgf
[11:06] <boinc31M13> Scunizi: errr ... seems there ain't .trash
[11:06] <saeed> so no one here knows why in kubuntu superkaramba widgets disappear after a reboot?
[11:06] <angel> this is the first time i try connecting through kubuntu and its pissing the living crap out of me
[11:06] <|Cugel|> Why?
[11:07] <saeed> in fact superkaramba itself doesn't appear in the system tray
[11:07] <angel> The browser won't load.
[11:07] <ScorpKing> i have a TV output on my laptop. if i use it i can only see the top corner of the screen. is there a way to set it in xorg.conf so it use a different reolution for the TV?
[11:07] <kristjan_> ScorpKing: haven't needed that so far, but I guess google is your friend ;-)
[11:07] <angel> Konversation is the only application that granted me access to the net.
[11:07] <angel> x_x
[11:07] <ScorpKing> kristjan_: hehe. ok. thanks for the help. ;)
[11:07] <|Cugel|> scorpking: yeah, look it up but it has to do with the panning.
[11:08] <saeed> how does one make sure superkaramba stays on the system tray even after a reboot?
[11:08] <|Cugel|> saeed: alltray?
[11:08] <saeed> yep
[11:08] <ScorpKing> |Cugel|: thanks

[11:08] <saeed> lower left  corner
[11:08] <saeed> of the main panel
[11:09] <sub[t] rnl> saeed: if your wanting to auto start superkaramba when you load kde, place a sym link in your ~/.kde/Autostart/ directory
[11:09] <saeed> how do I make sure superkaramba stays there even after a reboot
[11:09] <saeed> how do u put a symlink?
[11:09] <|Cugel|> man ln
[11:09] <sub[t] rnl> ln -s /location/of/superkaramba superkaramba
[11:10] <sub[t] rnl> you can do "which superkaramba" to see what directory the binary is loacted
[11:10] <ScorpKing> angel: first of all, don't swear in here. - i think the problem is with dns. how does your box get dns? dhcp?
[11:10] <saeed> cool
[11:10] <saeed> thanks
[11:10] <sub[t] rnl> np
[11:10] <angel> Damn,looks like i won't be getting any help. x_x
[11:11] <angel> Thanks anyway Cuge
[11:11] <angel> =]
[11:11] <ScorpKing> lol. look up ^^ angel
[11:11] <Scunizi> boinc31M13, you have to use a capital T in Trash
[11:11] <|Cugel|> angel: be more specific -- maybe try a few things first. Does knetwork (whatever) say something?
[11:11] <PyroMithrandir> can anyone help me with this bug?: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kdeaddons/+bug/152752
[11:12] <angel> Sorry .. ummm .. nothing's responding..i had to download ubudsl and use the "pppoeconf" command to connect and Konversation is the only thing that worked.
[11:12] <|Cugel|> pyro: well if it's just a typo why not just fix that typo etc.?
[11:12] <PyroMithrandir> I think it's just caused by a typo, but I don't know if it's okay for me to just go ahead and edit my /var/lib/dpkg/status
[11:12] <|Cugel|> pppoeconf -- hmm.
[11:13] <|Cugel|> Of course you can edit it.
[11:13] <sub[t] rnl> PyroMithrandir: thats what it looks like, yes.  make a backup of your /var/lib/dpkg/status and then edit it
[11:13] <ScorpKing> angel: do you set dns servers in pppoe?
[11:13] <angel> Nope.
[11:13] <ScorpKing> anywhere else?
[11:13] <angel> But i checked everything using "plog" command,the dns and ip# are just fine.
[11:13] <|Cugel|> Do you have stuff in files like /etc/resolv.conf ?
[11:14] <PyroMithrandir> thanks, guys, that fixed it
[11:14] <specialbuddy> what's the easiest way to get compiz fusion working?

[11:15] <specialbuddy> if I have gutsy then what do I do now?
[11:16] <angel> Cuge, i just looked at "resolve.conf" .. nameserver has my ip# ..the only thing that's making me wonder is "search lan" that's written a few lines down.
[11:16] <ScorpKing> i use 3G dailup. if i set dns i don't have internet in most programs, just like angel. if i get dns automatically it sais it's invallid but all apps have internet. i have nds servers in /etc/resolve.conf but it looks like konqueror and some other apps don't use that. any ideas?

[11:37] <ScorpKing> sredna: how big is the hard drive?
[11:37] <gerardo> ok
[11:38] <sredna> ScorpKing: you mean how big is the partition
[11:38] <ScorpKing> yes
[11:38] <sredna> i can't remember
[11:38] <ScorpKing> run df -h
[11:39] <sredna> 5g
[11:40] <ScorpKing> should be ok. try 'sudo apt-get clean' to remove packages from the cache
[11:41] <sredna> ScorpKing: i did that
[11:41] <sredna> there is 1.1 g free space
[11:41] <ScorpKing> lol i have only 4.2 gig and a lot of stuff installed. 700MB free
[11:42] <ScorpKing> sredna: any idea what's useing the space? maybe make it 10GB.
[11:42] <sredna> ScorpKing: then why doesn't the upgrade work?
[11:42] <sredna> i can't just do that
[11:42] <ScorpKing> is /tmp on the same partition?
[11:42] <nosrednaekim> heh.... our SN are similar..
[11:43] <ScorpKing> nosrednaekim: huh? :P
[11:43] <Roey> hi
[11:43] <sredna> yes, tmp is in /

[11:44] <Roey> for an NVidia Geforce4 Ti4200 and Dell 2405FPW monitor, what modeline should I use to enable 1920x1600 resolution?  using "DPMS" fives me the default 640x480 :P
[11:44] <Roey> ScorpKing: heya!
[11:44] <xevious> nosrednaekim: i just figured yours out, mike
[11:44] <sredna> ScorpKing: ?
[11:44] <ScorpKing> sredna: what is the error you get from the upgrade?
[11:44] <nosrednaekim> ScorpKing: sredna is close to nosrednaekim
[11:44] <nosrednaekim> xevious: heh
[11:45] <ScorpKing> lol.
[11:45] <sredna> ScorpKing: that it reqquires 1248M space and i need to free some more
[11:45] <sredna> no, 1348
[11:45] <nosrednaekim> wonder if his name is "Anders"
[11:46] <nosrednaekim> ;)
[11:46] <xevious> is there a repository with more recent nvidia drivers? (looking to install 100.14.19)
[11:46] <nosrednaekim> wait for gutsy ;)
[11:46] <nosrednaekim> 4 days?
[11:46] <nosrednaekim> =)
[11:46] <ScorpKing> sredna: you will have to make the partition bigger then. don't think you'll get past that one.
[11:47] <xevious> which version does gutsy install?
[11:47] <mike-kubuntu> hey, i'd like to make a .deb file for glc an opengl video capture tool
[11:47] <sredna> ScorpKing: that is at the best extremely inconvenient
[11:47] <mike-kubuntu> doesn't kubntu keep up to date with the recent nvidia drivers automatically, or is it a polocy to stay with the same drivers per release?
[11:48] <sredna> can anybody recommend a well behaved linux distro?
[11:48] <sredna> that doesn't require 1.3G to perform a update?
[11:48] <tds> anyone know if install.sh is safe to kill? it keeps running on my system using cpu
[11:48] <ScorpKing> sredna: you can tell it not to update
[11:48] <nosrednaekim> tds: wonder what THAT is..
[11:49] <mike-kubuntu> xeviouse: the nvidia binaries are extremely easy to install, you just have to start compiling your own kernel (actually also really easy, cd to /usr/src/linux after making sure there is a symbolic lynk that runs from a linux source directory you want to use, then do a make menuconfig
[11:49] <tds> nosrednaekim, i know it's used to install programs, just wondering if it's a daemon or something

[11:49] <tds> specialbuddy, yeah, works great here
[11:50] <nosrednaekim> tds: its not running on MY system... I'd say that it is safe to kill
[11:50] <xevious> mike-kubuntu: kernel upgrade, and i forget to rebuild my nvidia drivers before a reboot...
[11:51] <specialbuddy> how did you get it to work TDS
[11:51] <tds> nosrednaekim, well, just killed it and i'm still running. guess it's a leftover from a bad install
[11:51] <specialbuddy> I upgraded to gutsy and I can't figure out how to do it

[11:56] <ubotu> The packages in Kubuntu are divided into various sections. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Kubuntu
[11:57] <Roey> nosrednaekim: what do you mean, what type of computer?  Athlon64/3200+
[11:58] <Roey> nosrednaekim: the Dell 2405fpw is a 24-inch monitor capable of 1920x1200 resolution
[11:58] <xevious> is there a medibuntu repo for gutsy?
[11:58] <nosrednaekim> Roey: oh! lol... I thougt it was a model # for a desktop ;) sorry
[11:59] <nosrednaekim> Roey: what graphics card do you have?
[11:59] <Roey> Geforce4 TI-4200
[11:59] <Roey> nosrednaekim: hehehe
[12:00] <Roey> my bad
[12:00] <Roey> me demands his money back!!!
[12:00] <Roey> ;)
[12:00] <nosrednaekim> Roey: did you install the proprietary drivers? nvidia-glx...
[12:00] <guest123> nosrednaekim: Thank you very much. It worked. Can you explain the difference between CTRL+ALT+F1 and ~+F2 or F3 etc.?
[12:00] <Roey> right, I did.
[12:00] <Roey> nosrednaekim: I did
[12:01] <Roey> nosrednaekim: shouldn't specifying "DPMS" in the Monitor section be sufficient to allow for 1920x1200 resolution though?
[12:01] <nosrednaekim> guest123: f1 is sometimes "stolen" or "owned"  by kdm/the boot process
[12:01] <nosrednaekim> Roey: DPMS doe something totally different (power managerment)
[12:01] <nosrednaekim> Roey: is the driver enabled?
[12:02] <Roey> good quesiton
[12:02] <Roey> One moment
[12:02] <Roey> Yes.
[12:02] <guest123> omg
[12:02] <Roey> LSMod shows nvidia there.
[12:02] <guest123> well thank you very much
[12:02] <Roey> nosrednaekim: it's the modeline that Xorg.0.log keeps complaining baout.
[12:03] <nosrednaekim> Roey: try a "glxinfo" and see if it says you have direct rendering.
[12:07] <draik> Is it possible to convert the BasKet notes to PDF?
[12:07] <draik> I don't mind the HTML pages, but I would like to have them in PDF
[12:07] <nosrednaekim> draik: well, you could import the HTML into openoffice and save as PDF from there.
[12:08] <p-a> huhu
[12:10] <nosrednaekim> p-a: if that was "hi"..... Huhu back ;)
[12:10] <Scunizi> is there a way to print out to a file a list of all the programs that are listed in the menu?
[12:11] <nosrednaekim> Scunizi: they are probably in a config file somewhere, ask in #kde
[12:11] <Scunizi> thanks.
[12:11] <draik> nosrednaekim: That works for me. Thank you much. But what if they are multiple pages?
[12:12] <draik> The thing is that I'm making a bit of a manual for Kubuntu from what I've learned and such.
[12:12] <draik> I think it will be helpful for new comers as well
[12:12] <nosrednaekim> draik: I think Openoffice would just separate them, right?
[12:12] <draik> I think it would only do one page at a time
[12:13] <Roey> hey all again
[12:13] <Roey> hey Dr_willis!
[12:13] <Roey> ltns
[12:13] <Dr_willis> Oh? :) only been a day or 2 since i was last on here. ;)

[12:18] <Dr_willis> Strike last week for 1 day.. dowbn week this week...
[12:18] <ScorpKing> Roey: sometimes the "auto" option in xorg.conf solves the problem. :)
[12:18] <Dr_willis> My Poor Paycheck.
[12:18] <hellcattrav> hey what are GNU/PGP keys?
[12:18] <Minataku> Heh

[12:18] <Dr_willis> :)
[12:18] <Roey> ScorpKing:  that's what *caused* the problem :)
[12:18] <Roey> nosrednaekim:  ok
[12:18] <ScorpKing> Roey: made a backup? :P
[12:19] <Minataku> Dr_willis: So, what did you manage to jam (safely packed, I hope) into that box?
[12:19] <Roey> ScorpKing:  er, can't find the backup
[12:19] <Dr_willis> Minataku,  right now.. 2 A500's 2 PS's several dozen games..
[12:19] <ScorpKing> Roey: you remember the name?
[12:19] <Minataku> Hm
[12:19] <Roey> nope
[12:19] <Roey> one sec
[12:19] <Dr_willis> Minataku,  ya dont need any Joysticks do ya? they use the old atari type sticks.
[12:19] <Minataku> Don't forget the 1200... and I hope one of those PSUs is the working one
[12:19] <Minataku> You sent me a couple of those last time, actually
[12:20] <Dr_willis> Minataku,  not sure waht ones work and what onbes dont. i THINk they both work.
[12:20] <Minataku> I'll probably need an Amiga-compatible mouse
[12:20] <Dr_willis> they dont really have any lights :) or fans or other indications they are on.
[12:20] <Minataku> Dr_willis: You can always send the other PSU and the A1200 and maybe a C64 in a separate box, I guess
[12:20] <Minataku> lol
[12:20] <Dr_willis> I think i tossed in a mouse.  Pretty sure i did. If not theres 'joymouse' programs.
[12:20] <Roey> ScorpKing, nosrednaekim:  http://rafb.net/p/yKmj0k45.html
[12:21] <hellcattrav> how do i encrpyt files with naulatalis?
[12:21] <Minataku> I can't wait (but will anyway XD )... I'll finally have an Amiga <3
[12:21] <Dr_willis> Minataku,  i imagine thers guides online on making a PC mouse into an amiga mouse
[12:21] <Minataku> Probably
[12:21] <Dr_willis> i got a BOING mouse soemwhere around here.. wonder where it went.
[12:21] <hellcattrav> cos ive made a key but right clicking on a file in nautalis does nothing?
[12:22] <Dr_willis> The more i look the more i found.
[12:22] <nosrednaekim> Roey: AH! you are using the nv driver..
[12:23] <Roey> am I?
[12:23] <ScorpKing> yes
[12:23] <Roey> nosrednaekim:  am I?? where does it say this?
[12:23] <nosrednaekim> see the comment (#) on line 112?
[12:23] <hellcattrav> oi does anyone use keys?
[12:23] <hellcattrav> GNU/PGP keys?
[12:23] <Minataku> Heehee
[12:23] <nosrednaekim> no... I use voice to text software...;)
[12:23] <Roey> nosrednaekim:  yeah, what of it?
[12:23] <ScorpKing> Roey: line 107
[12:24] <Dr_willis> hellcattrav,  lots of people do. :) the repositories do also.
[12:24] <nosrednaekim> Roey: look up to the "device" section it is referencing.
[12:24] <Dr_willis> Personally I dont. :)
[12:24] <Dr_willis> !find pgp
[12:24] <Roey> nosrednaekim:  (I've disabled the nvidia proprietary driver because it gives the problem I was talking about--the unaccelerated driver doesn't have this issue)
[12:24] <ubotu> Found: gpgp, libpgp-sign-perl, pgpdump, pgpgpg, pgplsh (and 8 others)
[12:24] <Dr_willis> !info gpgp
[12:24] <ubotu> gpgp: gnome front-end to GnuPG - a free PGP replacement. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.4-12ubuntu1 (feisty), package size 56 kB, installed size 300 kB
[12:24] <Minataku> Dr_willis: Thanks, BTW :D
[12:24] <nosrednaekim> Roey: umm wat problem? the wrong resolution?
[12:24] <Dr_willis> Minataku,  ill get ya to make me somthing someday..
[12:24] <Minataku> Like I've said, I'll take whatever you don't want X3
[12:25] <hellcattrav> Dr_willis: I just got the seahorse app but what do i do with the key i made?
[12:25] <Minataku> Dr_willis: Perhaps I'll make a prototype of my senior project for ya
[12:25] <Minataku> lol
[12:25] <Dr_willis> hellcattrav,  no idea. save it somewhere? :)
[12:25] <ScorpKing> nite guys...
[12:26] <Dr_willis> Minataku,  heh. needing to track down a  little peer-peer network cable. or adaptor for work.
[12:26] <Dr_willis> but thats easy to make.
[12:26] <Minataku> Heh
[12:26] <Minataku> It's called a Null Modem Cable :3
[12:26] <Dr_willis> network - not serial. :)
[12:26] <Dr_willis> i got Null modem cables.
[12:26] <Minataku> lol
[12:26] <Dr_willis> You can use them and the amigas serial port and terminal programs to transfer files to/from amiga
[12:27] <cloakable> crossover cable?
[12:27] <hellcattrav> how can i  uninstall the ubuntu games? but leave solitare and tetris?
[12:27] <Minataku> That's it, yeah
[12:27] <Minataku> I was gonna say it but cloakable got there first
[12:27] <Dr_willis> yea. I got a crossover cable.. but its like 20 ft long. :) need one about 2 ft. for travel size
[12:27] <hellcattrav> otherwise deleting them all breaks ubuntu-desktop dependecy
[12:27] <Dr_willis> Need a little adaptor i can plug 2 networkc ables into and turn them into a crossover cable.
[12:27] <hitmanWilly> Dr_willis: cut a chunk off and splice it :)
[12:28] <Dr_willis> the dang little network plugs are a pain to work with.
[12:28] <Dr_willis> i need to get a cable making kit someday.
[12:28] <hitmanWilly> Dr_willis: i think i know ehat you need, its a little device called a switch :)
[12:28] <Dr_willis> hitmanWilly,  i dont want to use any ac power. :)
[12:28] <Dr_willis> hooking up 2 laptops at work
[12:29] <Dr_willis> Hmm do they make a USB powered network switch?
[12:29] <Dr_willis> taht could be handy
[12:30] <hitmanWilly> i dunno, i imagine you could do something like that with the network power alone
[12:30] <Dr_willis> been teaching friend at work linux, but getting the cables + switch all hooked up is a pain.
[12:30] <hitmanWilly> its not like switches are that complicated
[12:30] <Dr_willis>  on my to find list. :) is a little peer-peer-network cable.
[12:30] <Dr_willis> so he can practice networking/ssh/other cool tricks
[12:30] <Minataku> Oooh, food is ready!
[12:31] <Dr_willis> we cant get wireless going on his box. It crashes his machine.
[12:31] <savetheWorld>  peer-peer-network = Nic to Nic ethernet cable?
[12:31] <Dr_willis> Yep.
[12:31] <Roey> nosrednaekim:  right.
[12:31] <hitmanWilly> oh, one of those...broadcom?
[12:31] <Dr_willis> we donmt have gibibit nics either.
[12:31] <nosrednaekim> Roey: doesn't nv have the same problem?
[12:31] <Roey> nosrednaekim:  it won't allow 1920x1200.  Google for "kubuntu 2405fpw" and you'll see what I mean.
[12:31] <Roey> nope
[12:32] <struct> will kubuntu have desktop effects like ubuntu does?
[12:32] <Scunizi> struct, it does now in Feisty
[12:32] <hitmanWilly> sort of, esp when kde 4 hits
[12:32] <hitmanWilly> kwin can already do some pretty cool stuff
[12:33] <nosrednaekim> Roey: ah... ok... then run "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" to reset everything.
[12:35] <hellcattrav> how do i get the latest thunderbird version?
[12:35] <hellcattrav> in the repo it has 1.5  and the website has 2.0 ive downloaded the 2.0 tarbell but don't know what to do next?
[12:36] <nosrednaekim> hellcattrav: is it the source tarball?
[12:36] <hellcattrav> no idea
[12:36] <Roey> nosrednaekim:  hmm, ok
[12:36] <Roey> nosrednaekim:  thanks
[12:36] <hellcattrav> its whats ever on teh front page of the thunderbird website
[12:36] <hitmanWilly> probably not, i think it comes in binary by default
[12:37] <nosrednaekim> hellcattrav: ah ok, well unzip it with ark and then go inside that directory and run "thunderbird" or something like that.
[12:37] <hellcattrav> ok
[12:37] <hitmanWilly> iirc it also has an installer app with it
[12:38] <hellcattrav> wait so how do i use it?
[12:38] <struct> Scunizi: how do you enable it?
[12:38] <hellcattrav> do i need uninstall 1.5 first?
[12:38] <hitmanWilly> its probably a good idea
[12:38] <hellcattrav> ok
[12:38] <nosrednaekim> hellcattrav:actually you can get thunderbird debs from getdeb.net
[12:38] <Scunizi> struct, sorry, I'm in 4 channels .. enable what?
[12:38] <hellcattrav> whats that?
[12:38] <struct> Scunizi: desktop effects in kubuntu
[12:39] <hitmanWilly> !deb
[12:39] <ubotu> deb is the Debian package format, also used by Ubuntu. To install .deb files, simply double-click on them (Ubuntu) or right-click and select Kubuntu Package Menu->install (Kubuntu)
[12:39] <nosrednaekim> hellcattrav: its a site where people upload thier own packages
[12:39] <hellcattrav> ah
[12:39] <acomaco> Anyone know how to check what type of RAM i got? =)
[12:39] <hitmanWilly> acomaco: what cpu/socket?
