[00:00] <Minataku> You quickly realize that a GUI is completely useless for most tasks
[00:00] <jack> yeah :(
[00:00] <Minataku> Everyone heaps praise over Konq being a good file manager
[00:01] <Minataku> When the best one is sitting right there when you open an xterm
[00:01] <jack> :P
[00:01] <biovore> konquer isn't that bad actualy.. to can extend it..
[00:01] <biovore> (you can)
[00:02] <Minataku> If you're even a mediocre typist, you can move a file faster in the CLI than you can dragging it all over the place with a mouse
[00:02] <x_zeuss> someone pls help with this error:  (initramfs) [ 53.053436]  ata1.00: exception Emask 0x0 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x0 action 0x2 frozen

[00:03] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[00:03] <Minataku> x_zeuss: I'll need to look that one up
[00:04] <x_zeuss> pls do
[00:04] <x_zeuss> i can't find any sollutions for this on google or forums
[00:04] <x_zeuss> i've been searching for about a mounth now
[00:04] <biovore> ata controller problem it looks like...
[00:04] <x_zeuss> and it seems to be not just my problem
[00:04] <biovore> what ata control you have?
[00:05] <x_zeuss> ata 100
[00:05] <x_zeuss> paralel ata
[00:05] <biovore> chipset..
[00:05] <x_zeuss> sis730
[00:05] <biovore> ICH7 or something
[00:05] <Minataku> Hm
[00:05] <biovore> brb..  dinner
[00:05] <Minataku> Something isn't supported, I think
[00:05] <x_zeuss> the only hdd that it worked with was a very old one 6,4 BG
[00:05] <jack> Minataku: know how I can route sound input to my speakers?
[00:05] <jack> It works w/o setup in *windows*
[00:05] <jack> :'(
[00:06] <jack> My setup is all screwy
[00:06] <jack> Music on laptop
[00:06] <jack> laptop desktop
[00:06] <jack> Speakers
[00:06] <Minataku> x_zeuss: Do you have a RAID array setup? Does the chipset support RAID?
[00:06] <jack> Dolphin is worse than Konqoror
[00:06] <jack> o.o
[00:06] <Minataku> It's also possible that you have a bad ATA chipset
[00:07] <x_zeuss> no, no raid
[00:07] <aziegler> i have a problem with my printer installation
[00:07] <aziegler> can anyone help me
[00:07] <aziegler> i use kubuntu gutsy
[00:07] <jhutchins> there are some faulty ata chipsets out there, and a few that don't have compatible drivers.
[00:07] <aziegler> my printer is an canon pixma ip5300
[00:07] <jack> I thought it was gusty for a long time :(
[00:08] <Minataku> Hm
[00:08] <jhutchins> Often a problem like that is a matter of one chip in the chipset not being quite right.
[00:08] <x_zeuss> on same computer it worked with only one hdd installed, a very old 6,4 GB one
[00:08]  * jack is a moron
[00:08] <Minataku> Yeah, this may very well be a case
[00:08] <x_zeuss> but with other 2 hdds that i have no luck at all
[00:08] <Minataku> x_zeuss: You may have a bad ATA chipset
[00:08] <jhutchins> aziegler: have you googled "canon pixma ip5300 linux"?
[00:08] <aziegler> when i use lsusb kubuntu found my printer as device
[00:08] <zismuc> spanish
[00:08] <Minataku> If it just plain doesn't work, look into replacing it
[00:08] <Minataku> !es
[00:08] <ubotu> Si busca ayuda en Español por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, allí obtendrá mas ayuda.
[00:08] <aziegler> yes i googled 4 it
[00:09] <x_zeuss> but how come it works with an older hdd?
[00:09] <Dr_willis> Canon printers? pixma? Ick... You may want to go check cups.org to even see if that printer has ANY linux support at all.
[00:09] <jack> Oh shit
[00:09] <jack> How do I make a new Kwallet?
[00:09] <stdin> jack watch the language
[00:09] <Minataku> x_zeuss: Is there more to the error than just that?
[00:09] <jack> D:
[00:09] <Dr_willis> I know there are some Canon printers that have NO linux support at all.
[00:09] <jhutchins> x_zeuss: lower speeds or protocols may not stress whatever's broken.
[00:09] <Minataku> And that is true, what jh said
[00:09] <Minataku> It's possible that the older drive isn't capable of reaching what's causing the issue
[00:10] <jack> Fixed
[00:10] <Minataku> Which seems to be broken DMA from what I can gather off Google
[00:10] <Minataku> It would seem that faster drives are trying to go faster than the controller can support, the controller CLAIMS to support it, but it's actually broken
[00:10] <x_zeuss> that's the only error
[00:10] <Minataku> Your ATA chipset is bogus
[00:11] <x_zeuss> hmmm, and the sollution is another motherboard?
[00:11] <Minataku> Or an expansion card with separate chipset
[00:12] <Minataku> I could be wrong too, but it's likely that your chipset is lame, or the drivers can't support it
[00:12] <theverant> .j #ubuntu
[00:12] <Minataku> Pastebin your dmesg for me
[00:12] <x_zeuss> is there anything i can do to the hdd to slow it down a little so that it can work?
[00:12] <Minataku> I want to read it
[00:12] <theverant> whoops
[00:12] <x_zeuss> read what?
[00:13] <Minataku> Your dmesg output
[00:13] <INIT_6> Just installed kubuntu. however, i think it didn't set my root (hd0,1) correctly. If I boot into the live cd. how do i edit the correct /boot/grub/menu.lst.
[00:13] <x_zeuss> i'm a little noob so you'll have to tell me where to look for it
[00:13] <Minataku> Type "dmesg > tempfile" in an xterm
[00:14] <Minataku> Then open up tempfile in, say, Kate or somesuch
[00:14] <Minataku> Then select all, copy, and paste it into !pastebin

[00:14] <x_zeuss> i'm in XP now
[00:14] <Minataku> Then give me the link
[00:14] <Minataku> Does your Linux installation boot at all?
[00:15] <x_zeuss> only at the start where i can choose install or safe mode
[00:15] <x_zeuss> it doesn't boot into the gui
[00:16] <x_zeuss> only a few seconds of splash screen and than busybox with that error
[00:16] <Minataku> Hrm
[00:16] <Minataku> It's definitely a chipset issue
[00:16] <Minataku> It's either bad or unsupported
[00:16] <x_zeuss> but the opensuse 10.3 witch has same kernel doesn't have this problem
[00:16] <Minataku> At which point I don't think there's much that can be done
[00:16] <Minataku> Hrm
[00:17] <Minataku> Then it's unsupported by Kubuntu
[00:17] <Minataku> File a bug

[00:17] <Minataku> It's clearly a bug in Kubuntu
[00:17] <x_zeuss> it's allready filed by others but still no sollution
[00:17] <jhutchins> x_zeuss: Suse has access to propietary closed-source driver code.
[00:17] <Minataku> If it works in another distro, then it's Kubuntu at fault
[00:17] <jhutchins> x_zeuss: Or rather, Novell does.
[00:18] <Minataku> Does OpenSUSE?
[00:18] <admin_> how do i get "sans" in kubuntu? I can get "Sans" in XFCE
[00:18] <Minataku> OpenSUSE I believe is no longer directly under Novell
[00:18] <jhutchins> Minataku: Of course, it's the same company.
[00:18] <jhutchins> Minataku: Novell's just not paying the devs.
[00:18]  * Minataku shrugs
[00:19] <jhutchins> They let people work on it for free, then they adopt the code into the closed products.
[00:19] <Minataku> Sounds like FUD to me, jhutchins
[00:19] <Minataku> You have conclusive proof of this?
[00:19] <Minataku> Last I checked, the GPL didn't allow for such
[00:20] <admin_> how do i get "sans" in kubuntu? I can get "Sans" in XFCE
[00:20] <Minataku> I know for a fact Sun does it with OpenSolaris, because the CDDL is set up for that
[00:20] <Minataku> Of course, they also keep the contributed code open as well
[00:20] <jhutchins> Minataku: OS-X, RHEL, there's others.

[00:20] <dsmith_> i have compiz-fusion installed but when I switching windows managers it does not show, just the window itself. Did I forget something?
[00:21] <dsmith_> I am on 7.10 btw
[00:21] <Minataku> jhutchins: Well Apple is just plain evil incarnate
[00:21] <Dr_willis> dsmith_,  you insalled emerald also?
[00:21] <x_zeuss> so what is your advice to me?
[00:21] <dsmith_> thought I did
[00:21] <jhutchins> Minataku: We are offtopic.
[00:21] <Minataku> x_zeuss: Toss the Kubuntu ISO, I suppose
[00:21] <Dr_willis> emerald --replace  (perhaps)
[00:21] <Minataku> I doubt you'll get it working without some serious work
[00:21] <Dr_willis> dsmith_,  check the compiz wiki page yet?  may of missed a package
[00:21] <Dr_willis> !compiz
[00:21] <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
[00:22] <dsmith_> thanks guys
[00:22] <x_zeuss> and what other distro cand u suggest that is as up to date as *buntu, looks good and works good?
[00:22] <admin_> yes Dr_willis
[00:22] <biovore> x_zeuss: take your pick..  redhat, suse, debian
[00:22] <biovore> debian might have the same problem though..
[00:22] <Minataku> Gentoo, Fedora Core, FreeBSD, NetBSD
[00:23] <x_zeuss> redhat=money, suse=very slow, debian=not very up to date
[00:23] <biovore> fedora core == free
[00:23] <biovore> thats redhat
[00:23] <x_zeuss> i downloaded about 4 iso's of fedora, all broken
[00:23] <INIT_6> you think some one can help me on this. I have done it before but forgot. I need to edit the grub/menu.lst file booted into the liveCD tried to mount /dev/sde3 but nothing shows. how do i get to the grub files what are installed
[00:23] <Dr_willis> admin_,  thers also the redhat liberationfonts - that are worth grabbing   http://ubuntu-tutorials.com/2007/10/30/installing-redhats-free-liberation-fonts/
[00:24] <Minataku> There's Gentoo, or you can try one of the BSDs like FreeBSD or NetBSD
[00:24] <Dr_willis> Hmm pc cant install or cant boot the live cd's ?
[00:25] <admin_> ok Dr_willis
[00:25] <admin_> they only come as RPMs Dr_willis

[00:29] <INIT_6> just got it. I was a idiot. trying to mount my swap not my root. thats why it wasn't working thanks for the help stdin
[00:30] <stdin> heh
[00:30] <Minataku> lol
[00:31] <Celebrindal> does anyone know how to use Amarok properly?
[00:31] <Celebrindal> because I for one do NOT... I cant do a darn thing on it....
[00:32] <Dr_willis> admin_,  :) or ya can get the tar.gz to install for a normal user
[00:33] <Dr_willis> Hmm. run amarok, point it to my Music dir.. hit play
[00:34] <wildweasel_> woot.. I may have to switch everythign to kunbuntu.. this is great..
[00:44] <Dr_willis> There we go.. using the Liberation fonts now. :)
[00:45] <NickPresta> I think I'm confused. There is a java sdk 1.5 package, correct?
[00:45] <Dr_willis> I think so.
[00:45] <Dr_willis> !java
[00:45] <ubotu> To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre. Please don't use Adept to install Java if you are on Kubuntu 6.10 (Edgy) or earlier.
[00:46] <Dr_willis> Hmm. I never understand all the java bits and names...
[00:46] <INIT_6> After install getting invalid partition table.  So i went into grub changed root to root (hd0,1) and in device map removed everything and put (hd0) ?dev/sde
[00:46] <INIT_6> This is becuase I have a couple SATA controller cards and the order of my drives are not the same during boot up as they are after the linux kernal loads
[00:46] <Dr_willis> !find sdk
[00:46] <ubotu> Found: kdesdk-dbg, kdesdk-doc-html, kdesdk-scripts, eclipse-sdk, eclipse-sdk-nls (and 17 others)
[00:46] <hydrogen> !find jdk
[00:46] <Dr_willis> !find java-sdk
[00:46] <ubotu> Found: icedtea-java7-jdk, sun-java5-jdk, sun-java6-jdk
[00:46] <ubotu> Found: free-java-sdk, icedtea-java7-jdk
[00:47] <Dr_willis> 1.5 is 5?
[00:47] <Dr_willis> whats different from a sdj to a jdk ?
[00:47] <Dr_willis> sdk vs. jdk
[00:47] <hydrogen> sdk/jdk is the same thing
[00:47] <hydrogen> java developer kit.. software developer kit
[00:47] <Dr_willis> same thing - only different names.. :)
[00:47] <maybeway36> jdk is a kind of sdk
[00:47] <INIT_6> Did I mess up or any other reasons you know why it would give error "invalid partition table"
[00:48] <Dr_willis> INIT_6,  hmm could use the grub shell and its 'find' command to find where the  grub files are at.
[00:49]  * Dr_willis wonders how a sata controller card is seen by grub - if it needs a module loaded to work...
[00:49] <Dr_willis> magic?
[00:49] <INIT_6> could you remind me again how to get into the grub shell? just type grub?
[00:49] <Dr_willis> at the grub menu - hit 'e' or c, or somthing like that. :)
[00:49] <maybeway36> i think C
[00:50] <Dr_willis> when booting. That way you can see what the actual grub  is seeing
[00:50] <INIT_6> I don't get to the grub menu errors out before
[00:50] <INIT_6> I have been going back into the liveCD to edit files
[00:50] <Dr_willis> Ahh so grub isent even seeing the menu.lst eh? no menu entrys at all?
[00:51] <INIT_6> yeah
[00:51] <Dr_willis> You have a 'normal' drive not on an sata controller card?
[00:51] <Dr_willis> It may be grub isent totally sure hat to do with drives on those cards.
[00:51] <INIT_6> all drives are sata
[00:51] <INIT_6> the install hdd is connected to my mother board
[00:51] <Dr_willis> no sata on the mb eh.. Hmm..
[00:51] <INIT_6> and have two other satacards
[00:52] <Dr_willis> ok.Hmm. well that one on the mb should work then.
[00:52] <Dr_willis> so grub loads then says invalid partition right away?
[00:53] <INIT_6> It was working, then i tried to upgrade from 7.04 to 7.1 and frooze druing the install saved it a couple times but keept doing the same thing so I thought a reinstal would help.
[00:53] <INIT_6> doesn't even get to grub
[00:53] <INIT_6> I guess it does but don't see it
[00:53] <Dr_willis> if grub isent even loading. that sounds like the bios is set to boot the wrong hd.
[00:53] <Dr_willis> You using RAID or anything else special?
[00:53] <INIT_6> no raid
[00:54] <INIT_6> I might try playing with the bios
[00:54] <angel> jeccrbt руссские есть?
[00:54] <Dr_willis> I would almost be tempted to unplug all the extra hd's and just see if you can boot the one hd.
[00:54] <INIT_6> cuz i  think you are right,

[00:57] <BluesKaj> INIT_6, sometimes hitting the escape button just when grub is about to load will give you the grub menu...you can also edit the the /boot/grub/menu.lst and comment out the hiddenmenu command if it's causing the prob.

[01:03] <biovore> I have done some stuff with it.. Not an expert though..
[01:03] <biovore> can try #kdevelop
[01:04] <fernando_> biovore: I did't, but is just a few user..so I am waiting the all time without answer :-p
[01:05] <stdin> try asking the question and see if anyone knows
[01:05] <biovore> rgr..
[01:05] <fernando_> biovore: I want include a directore with headers on my project, how can I do that?
[01:05] <biovore> add -I as a gcc flag
[01:05] <biovore> -I/path/to/incude/dir
[01:05] <INIT_6> hey, thanks, it was a bios setting. for some reason last install it worked with it set to boot from raid device this time worked booting from scsi device. I don't really understand how it could have been different unless my cmos got reset because my computer was turned off for about 5weeks
[01:06] <fernando_> yes..I did that.. but doesnt work..
[01:06] <stdin> fernando_: why not #include "directory/header/h"     ?
[01:06] <Dr_willis> INIT_6,  seen that happen befor
[01:06] <biovore> doing something wrong then..
[01:07] <fernando_> stdin: because work just for a few files, later files include other files and the problem is to do it with each file..
[01:07] <fernando_> stdin: isn't the right solution
[01:11] <stdin> fernando_: open the "Automake Manager" tab (on the right) and click the Options button (near the top right), there you can set includes and flags
[01:15] <vasilisa> How do you configure an ATI card to work well? I followed the site's instructions and set up the proprietary driver, only to find that all 2d including KDE were slow and choppy. Furthermore, when i ran openarena, all of the textures were messed up (but it ran)
[01:15] <szakulec> what's the quickest way to create a package for something I built from source? (I'm not planning to distribute it currently)

[01:15] <fairman> Hi please how can i unload module ipw3945? I am trying to hibernate laptop.
[01:16] <stdin> szakulec: quickest is "checkinstall", for local install only
[01:16] <Dr_willis> fairman,  sudo rmmod ipw3945
[01:16] <szakulec> okay- thanks
[01:17] <fairman> Dr_willis: but only temporary, not forever and which command is for launch modul?
[01:17] <Dr_willis> sudo modprobe whatevermodule
[01:17] <fairman> thanks
[01:18] <fernando_> how can I know the value of $(WX_LIBS)???
[01:18] <Dr_willis> echo  $(WX_LIBS)
[01:18] <Dr_willis> perhaps?
[01:18] <stdin> helps if you give some context
[01:18] <fernando_> Dr_willis: thanks
[01:18] <hydrogen> err
[01:18] <stdin> bash, Makefile, preprocessor
[01:18] <hydrogen> that won't work
[01:18] <biovore> yeah its probably a makefile varible
[01:18]  * Dr_willis has no idea about makefiles or preprocessors. :)
[01:19] <fernando_> Dr_willis: didn't work.. but thanks anyway..
[01:19] <Dr_willis> its not a bash env variable that curtnely set then. :)
[01:19] <stdin> if it's in a makefile then you could try "echo $(WX_LIBS)" in a home-made target
[01:20] <hydrogen> Dr_willis: err, that wouldn't work in bash either
[01:20] <hydrogen> $() is subshell syntax
[01:20] <hydrogen> you want ${}
[01:20]  * Dr_willis squinta
[01:20]  * Dr_willis squinta
[01:21]  * Dr_willis squints
[01:21] <Dr_willis> :)
[01:21] <stdin> Makefiles do use $() for variables

[01:34] <INIT_6> what packages are broken?
[01:34] <bobito> Hey, I've been playing around with compiz and it doesn't respond to my super key.  I've played around with xmodmap and xev, and its set up correctly though.  I'm too new to linux to come up with any more ideas.  Anyone willing to help?
[01:34] <Minataku> paulo: Is it Samba?
[01:34] <paulo> it was samba
[01:34] <Minataku> !sambabug
[01:34] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about sambabug - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[01:34] <Minataku> Hm
[01:35] <Minataku> It must be fixed now
[01:35] <Minataku> Try again
[01:35] <paulo> it is libgnomevfs2-common 127
[01:35] <jagcorvair> !purekde
[01:35] <ubotu> purekde is If you want to remove all !Gnome packages and have a default !Kubuntu system follow the instructions here « https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PureKDE »
[01:36] <Minataku> Ew... GNOME.

[01:36] <Minataku> Dirty disgusting garbage

[01:43] <Dr_willis> otherwise it sux.
[01:44] <paulo> sudo aptitude remove ubuntu-desktop doesnt work
[01:44] <paulo> what more can I do to force remove libgnomevfs2-common?
[01:45] <Dr_willis> ubuntu-desktop is jsut a meta packakage - it wont really remove much of anything

[01:45] <jagcorvair> I have many packages installed
[01:45] <Dr_willis> or is it --force --purge ?
[01:45] <jagcorvair> For the life of this computer, I cannot get it to play a DVD
[01:45] <jagcorvair> Some issue with Kaffeine and permissions.
[01:46] <paulo> =<val>???
[01:46] <ardchoille> Dr_willis: I don't think "-force" is good there
[01:46] <paulo> why?
[01:47] <jagcorvair> For all of you using Kaffeine, what are your settings?
[01:48] <ardchoille> paulo: sudo apt-get remove -purge should zap it
[01:48] <jagcorvair> ardchoille: It's --purge
[01:48] <ardchoille> ok
[01:48] <paulo> i will try
[01:48] <ardchoille> Well, I use aptitude
[01:49] <paulo> nope!
[01:49] <paulo> nothing

[01:57] <paulo> Minataku: tried purge both, nothing
[01:57] <jagcorvair> ardchoille: Installed
[01:57] <ardchoille> paulo: Ok, you may have other provlems because that should have returned something
[01:57] <stdin> it's case sensitive, so "Installed" is not the same as "installed"
[01:58] <ardchoille> jagcorvair: Hold on, I'm looking at my system..
[01:58] <jagcorvair> ardchoille: Thank you
[01:58] <ardchoille> jagcorvair: libdvdread3  and  libdvdnav4 ?
[01:58] <paulo> both installed and Installed returnd nothing
[01:58] <jagcorvair> ardchoille: Would you mind sending me your "dpkg --get-selections > filename.txt"
[01:59] <jagcorvair> ardchoille: Got those installed too
[01:59] <BluesKaj> jagcorvair, what message do you receive when dvds won't play ?
[01:59] <ardchoille> jagcorvair: I feel that won't help as much as the way BluesKaj  is attacking this :)
[01:59] <jagcorvair> BluesKaj: It's all in Kaffeine. I don't have sufficient rights. I'm missing plug-ins. Things along those lines
[02:00] <BluesKaj> jagcorvair, what about other media players like VLC ?
[02:00] <jagcorvair> BluesKaj: Nothing will play the DVDs :(
[02:00] <jagcorvair> I have many players, none work
[02:01] <ardchoille> jagcorvair: libxine1-ffmpeg ?
[02:02] <jagcorvair> ardchoille: installed
[02:02] <ardchoille> Interesting
[02:02] <jagcorvair> I just tried with a backup DVD. It didn't even show a prompt
[02:02] <paulo> well guys,,,, thanks all for trying to help
[02:02] <BluesKaj> puzzler that
[02:03] <paulo> have to work tomorrow
[02:03] <paulo> bye all!
[02:03] <ardchoille> paulo: Try the forums
[02:03] <paulo> I will... thanks ardchoille
[02:05] <jagcorvair> I am thinking about reinstalling Kubuntu 7.10
[02:06] <jagcorvair> Yes? No?
[02:06] <ardchoille> jagcorvair: Did you use 3rd party scripts for installing/tweaking?
[02:06] <jagcorvair> ardchoille: Nope.
[02:07] <jagcorvair> ardchoille: BluesKaj: Would you recommend I just start fresh?
[02:07] <ardchoille> jagcorvair: I have found that xine and mplayer work great. They are the only two which support closed captions so I like them.
[02:07] <jagcorvair> ardchoille: I never cared for CC. Kaffeine has worked on my other computer
[02:08] <ardchoille> I'vbe never figured out how to get kaffeine to display colsed captions
[02:09] <jagcorvair> Interesting....
[02:09] <jagcorvair> This computer has two drives
[02:10] <jagcorvair> The top drive is solely CD burner; does not play DVDs
[02:10] <ardchoille> CD-R
[02:10] <sammy> (not saying there aren't any reasons why) why would someone install a mozilla thunderbird extension through adept-installer/manager instead of through thunderbird's add-on manager?
[02:10] <BluesKaj> reinstalling 7.10 is an option jagcorvair , albeit a rather drastic one ...of i must ask the obvious question does system settings/advanced/disk&filesystems show the dvdrom ?
[02:10] <jagcorvair> The other drive, the one that doesn't want to work, Is a DL DVD burner. I just put in a CD and it didn't even load as it did with the CD-R drive.
[02:11] <ardchoille> sammy: Reasons #1 the package manager can auto-=update the extension so the user doesn't have to worry about it
[02:11] <jagcorvair> BluesKaj: Checking right now.....
[02:11] <sammy> ardchoille: gold star. and cookie
[02:11] <jagcorvair> BluesKaj: Yes, it does
[02:11] <sammy> that's a fantastic reason.
[02:12] <ardchoille> :)
[02:12] <jagcorvair> BluesKaj: Mount: /media/cdrom1    device:  /dev/scd1     Type: Auto
[02:13] <jagcorvair> BluesKaj: Oh yeah, it's on disabled. It won't enable
[02:13] <sammy> thunderbird's package manager doesn't automagically (or have the option to) check for updates, like the firefox add-on manager?
[02:14] <sammy> s/package manager/extension manager/
[02:14] <BluesKaj> jagcorvair, it will be disabled if there's no media in the device
[02:14] <jagcorvair> BluesKaj: The Kubuntu 7.10 CD is inside the DVD drive
[02:16] <jagcorvair> I think I'm going to start fresh
[02:18] <BluesKaj> got me puzzled unless you didn't choose a username & password when you installed
[02:19] <BluesKaj> actaully I'm glad he din't see that last remark :)
[02:19] <ardchoille> sammy: Not sure, but think about this. What happens if there is a huge security hole and a security update to the extension and I don't use thunderbird for a month.. that security hole goes unpatched for a month until I run tb again? But, if I install it via the package manager, it gets updated sooner.
[02:20] <ardchoille> It may not be a big deal, but I dislike leaving updates go for more than 24 hours.
[02:21] <bobito> Hey, I've been playing around with compiz and it doesn't respond to my super key.  I've played around with xmodmap and xev, and its set up correctly though.  I'm too new to linux to come up with any more ideas.  Anyone willing to help?

[02:22] <bobito> thanks
[02:23] <bobito> out of curiosity, is there a reason it didnt ship with>
[02:23] <bobito> ?
[02:23] <stdin> because it doesn't work well with kde
[02:23] <jagcorvair> BluesKaj: Actually, I did read your last comment
[02:23] <jagcorvair> :)
[02:23] <jagcorvair> BluesKaj: Yes, I do have a un/pw
[02:24] <ardchoille> bobito: Just my opinion, but I'm glad it didn't. Not everyone wants to have to uninstall that junk after first boot.
[02:24] <bobito> ardchoille: why do you dislike it so much?
[02:24] <jagcorvair> I am getting the same error again. No Xserver when I try to install through the Live CD
[02:24] <ardchoille> bobito: That would be off-topic :)
[02:25] <sammy> ardchoille: crap, okay. next trip to seattle, you get cookies
[02:25] <legnaleurc> I even can't found a compiz window manager for KDE....
[02:25] <ardchoille> sammy: :D

[03:21] <BluesKaj> well, sacktime for me
[03:21] <nosrednaekim> night BluesKaj
[03:21] <stdin> if it works in konqueror then it will work in firefox, konqueror looks in the same place as firefox
[03:21] <MyNameIsURL> "No plugins were installed."
[03:21] <nosrednaekim> stdin: yeah, I don't know why firefox isn't likeing it.
[03:22] <MyNameIsURL> "Adobe Flash Player Failed"
[03:24] <MyNameIsURL> yeah the Flash movies don't even show up in Konqueror
[03:24] <nosrednaekim> MyNameIsURL: in konqueror you have to enable the plugin
[03:25] <MyNameIsURL> and if I go to YouTube, instead of the movie images, there are just words that link to the download page
[03:27] <cpk1> is there a xine channel?
[03:28] <MyNameIsURL> uh, how do I enable Flash in Konqueror?

[03:32] <nosrednaekim> and expand that tree view
[03:34] <MyNameIsURL> yeah I see that, but Flash is not in there
[03:34] <nosrednaekim> go over to the scan tab and scan for plugins
[03:36] <MyNameIsURL> ok that did nothing
[03:36] <nosrednaekim> hrmph
[03:38] <MyNameIsURL> in Konqueror, the Flash animations don't even show up as Flash animations
[03:38] <MyNameIsURL> they just look like pictures

[04:01] <sledge> Can someone point me to a HowTo for running 3d applications in a 32-bit chroot?
[04:02] <ardchoille> MyNameIsURL: The package manager simply downloads the tarball for flash and installs the same way you did. The only advantage with the package manager, wrt flash, is it will offer automatic updates to flash.
[04:04] <MyNameIsURL> I don't see it in the list
[04:04] <MyNameIsURL> I typed in "Adobe" and got no results
[04:04] <maduser> flashpalyernonfree

[04:30] <MyNameIsURL> one sec, let me try again
[04:30] <MyNameIsURL> I agree
[04:30] <MyNameIsURL> it SHOULD
[04:30] <Rukus> try removing it once, and then reinstall
[04:30] <Rukus> yah i know hey. i ran into some problems myself, reinstalled compiz 3 times
[04:31] <Rukus> then i found out, maybe my graphics card just sucks
[04:31] <MyNameIsURL> E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
[04:31] <MyNameIsURL> when I do that, I get:

[04:33] <Rukus> yeah, you can use it to paste lots of lines of text and it gives u a link so u dont flood chan
[04:33] <MyNameIsURL> nothing wants to work
[04:33] <MyNameIsURL> ok
[04:33] <MyNameIsURL> apt-get is what I've been using
[04:33] <MyNameIsURL> but all I get is error messages

[04:36] <MyNameIsURL> hell
[04:36] <MyNameIsURL> it's BLANK!
[04:36] <arch3angel> maduser can you pm me please

[04:38] <MyNameIsURL> "The APT Database could not be opened! This may be caused by incorrect APT configuration or some similar problem. Try running apt-setup and apt-get update in terminal and see if it helps to resolve the problem"
[04:38] <MyNameIsURL> there's one of them
[04:38] <MyNameIsURL> I'm running apt-get update now
[04:39] <MyNameIsURL> I suppose there's no point in worrying about getting my video card or wireless card drivers set up
[04:40] <arch3angel> or disabling startup applications
[04:40] <yosef> hello
[04:40] <tokstow> hello
[04:40] <arch3angel> DOES ANYONE KNOW HOW TO STOP APPLICATIONS WHEN YOU LOG IN AND ADD AN APPLICATION YOU WANT TO STARTUP
[04:41] <kyled185> what application
[04:41] <arch3angel> google desktop
[04:41] <arch3angel> stop
[04:41] <arch3angel> kwikdisk add
[04:42] <kyled185> arch3angel, System Settings -> Advanced Tab -> System Services
[04:42] <arch3angel> brb
[04:43] <arch3angel> would it be under single user?
[04:44] <kyled185> arch3angel, Multiuser Mode (5)
[04:44] <Darkrift411> in adept updater, im showing a nvidia-glx update. if I update and have problems like i did isntalling drivers the first time is there a way to set a "restore point" of sorts to revert back easily?
[04:45] <wols_> Darkrift411: no
[04:45] <wols_> you can dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and use vesa to get X back (no 3D there tho)
[04:45] <wols_> and then fix your nvidia-glx problem
[04:46] <Darkrift411> damn
[04:47] <wols_> why do you want to update it?
[04:47] <arch3angel> i cant find the services assoc. with google desktop
[04:47] <Darkrift411> i was hoping for better performance under wine (I play wow with wine)
[04:50] <arch3angel> no service for google desktopp
[04:50] <arch3angel> i never figured it would be so darn hard to start and stop applications
[04:51] <wols_> arch3angel: how did you install google desktop?
[04:52] <arch3angel> i believe apt-get but it has been a long time since the install
[04:52] <arch3angel> i also want to have kwikdisk startup
[04:53] <wols_> ~/.xsession
[04:53] <wols_> if you installed google desktop there is a package for it you can uninstall. is there?
[04:54] <wols_> but considering google-destkop isn't free software, I sorta doubt you did
[04:54] <arch3angel> ~/.xsession you mean under my home folder
[04:55] <arch3angel> i dont have that folder
[04:55] <arch3angel> i meant file
[04:56] <arch3angel> how do i get kwikdisk to startup
[04:56] <wols_> I just told you
[04:57] <arch3angel> i dont have ~/.xsession do i need to create one?
[04:57] <arch3angel> i see a .xsession-errors
[04:59] <arch3angel> i just checked i downloaded the deb file from google and added the application that way
[05:01] <wols_> then uninstall it the same way, or dpkg-reoconfigure it
[05:02] <Rukus> anyone know anything about DRI on the xpress 200m?
[05:02] <arch3angel> what about kwikdisk?
[05:02] <wols_> also helpful is dpkg -L to see the binary names under which it could be running (and started)
[05:02] <wols_> Rukus: install the fglrx
[05:02] <wols_> *driver
[05:02] <wols_> arch3angel: I woN't tell you a 3rd time
[05:03] <Rukus> its installed
[05:03] <Rukus> i have compiz working, etc...
[05:03] <Rukus> but
[05:03] <Rukus> when i type glxinfo i get
[05:03] <arch3angel> dpkg
[05:03] <Rukus> Xlib:  extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":1.0".
[05:03] <jalbert> heh
[05:03] <\dEAD> anyone using hellanzb?
[05:04] <wols_> Rukus: dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[05:04] <wols_> also: what drivers?
[05:04] <Rukus> fglrx ati
[05:04] <arch3angel> its late - i dont think i am all there now to deal with this - thanks for the help wols_
[05:04] <Rukus> proprietary
[05:04] <wols_> Rukus: what version that compiz is working?
[05:04] <Rukus> gutsy gibbons
[05:04] <Rukus> err
[05:05] <Rukus> what do u want to know?
[05:05] <wols_> your fglrx version
[05:06] <Rukus> OpenGL version string: 2.0.6473 (8.37.6)
[05:06] <Rukus> that?
[05:06] <Rukus> i dont know
[05:06] <Rukus> i used kubunu software channels to install it
[05:08] <wols_> how can compiz work on 8.37 when there is no libcomposite support with that driver?
[05:08] <MyNameIsURL> hell..
[05:08] <MyNameIsURL> I can't open Adept now
[05:08] <Rukus> hmmm
[05:08] <MyNameIsURL> "
[05:08] <MyNameIsURL> Another process is using the packaging system database (probably some other Adept application or apt-get or aptitude).
[05:08] <MyNameIsURL> Would you like to attempt to resolve this problem? No will enter read-only mode and Cancel to quit and resolve this issue yourself.
[05:08] <Rukus> well i have fancy desktop graphics
[05:08]  * Rukus OpenGL version string: 2.0.6473 (8.37.6)hugs
[05:09] <Rukus> oops
[05:09]  * Rukus shrugs
[05:09] <MyNameIsURL> maybe I ought to just delete this whole OS and step back down to Dapper
[05:10] <Rukus> i'm even more confused now
[05:10] <Rukus> now apparently i made something work that shouldnt?
[05:10] <wols_> MyNameIsURL: maybe you should close your open copy of any libapt using program?
[05:13] <Rukus> this is the output of glxinfo
[05:13] <Rukus> http://pastebin.ca/783377
[05:14] <neville> Hey, is it at all possible to reset a user back to default settings for everything without having to delete it and make a new one?
[05:15] <neville> Because I've done something to stuff my multiple desktops up (the mouse touches the edge of the screen and switches, Windows don't clip to the edge of the screen, etc)
[05:15] <neville> And it's really
[05:15] <neville> Very, truly, incredibly annoying~
[05:15] <Excelsior> Can anyone assist me with this cursed wireless? For some reason, ever since I installed Gutsy, my wifi card (TEW-421PC B1) refuses to work with Kubuntu, or vice a versa. Now don't get me wrong- my card worked perfectly in Edgy and Feisty, and I have the latest ndiswrapper-commons and utils packages as well as the driver installed. Under  KNetworkManager, it says "No active devices" and I can't even locate wlan0 as an interface.
[05:17] <wols_> Excelsior: what wlan chip does it use?
[05:17] <Excelsior> wols_: Marvell Libertas rev. 03
[05:18] <Excelsior> Which is, also to the extent of my searches, supported
[05:18] <wols_> for ndiswrapper kinds of "support"
[05:23] <Rukus> i'll never get DRI i guess
[05:23] <simion314> hi, i want to monitor an application to find what files cretes and modifies, i want to stop this application to let traces of it existed in my sistem, do you know something that can he
[05:28] <ingo_> Hello there everyone, I am using compiz fusion with KDE and would like to know, if it is possible to start the compiz window manager at the KDM login-screen already
[05:29] <ingo_> so that compiz is enabled for the login-process in KDM and stays active after that

[05:35] <Solifugus> Just got a usb webcam and plugged it in--how can i know if it works?
[05:37] <Yorokobi> What's the best way to start KDE4 (gutsy)? The instructions in the Kubuntu announcements specify files that don't exist ...

[05:40] <maduser> whoever programed that bot knows hos stuff
[05:41] <biovore> the bot reads a file the developers put info in..
[05:42] <maduser> yeah but whater the bot says are the developers ideas
[05:42] <ingo_> wols_: I thought it would be nice, because at the time when compiz window manager starts, the screen is black for some seconds
[05:42] <maduser> thats how it starts
[05:43] <jake_> hi
[05:44] <ingo_> but when it starts with kdm I think one wouldn't notice it
[05:45] <ingo_> its just an idea. nothing very essential
[05:45] <ingo_> I just thought I'd like to have that :)
[05:50] <Kr4t05> Okay... Random thing... The Firefox icon in my Kmenu is supersized... Any ideas?
[05:50] <Kr4t05> I've tried changing the icon, but every time it comes out ginormous.
[05:54] <MyNameIsURL> I'm now downloading the Dapper LiveCD
[05:56] <MyNameIsURL> hello?
[05:58] <jake_> i am getting cannot verify the update tool
[05:59] <maduser> hi
[06:01] <maduser> !ubutu
[06:01] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ubutu - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[06:01] <maduser> !ubotu
[06:01] <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
[06:02] <MyNameIsURL> I am sooo disappointed with Gutsy...
[06:02] <MyNameIsURL> I'm gonna install Dapper instead
[06:03] <maduser> so your like downgrading?
[06:03] <MyNameIsURL> that's not the way I see it
[06:03] <maduser> ah
[06:03] <Kr4t05> MyNameIsURL: Why not Feisty of Edgy?
[06:03] <MyNameIsURL> I'm switchuing from a developmental version to a stable version
[06:03] <Kr4t05> Uh...
[06:04] <Kr4t05> Gutsy is stable...
[06:04] <MyNameIsURL> heh
[06:04] <Kr4t05> It's just that Dapper is the LTS version.
[06:04] <maduser> he just cannot use it
[06:04] <MyNameIsURL> I've spent the past 3-4 hours just trying to install FLASH
[06:04] <Kr4t05> Right.....
[06:04] <MyNameIsURL> LTS?
[06:04] <maduser> youtube is not everthing
[06:04] <Kr4t05> !lts
[06:04] <ubotu> LTS means Long Term Support. LTS versions of Ubuntu will be supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server.
[06:04] <MyNameIsURL> it's not just about YouTube
[06:04] <Kr4t05> Also
[06:04] <Kr4t05> !flash
[06:04] <ubotu> To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - Flash 9 is now available in dapper-backports and edgy-backports - See also !Restricted and !Gnash
[06:05] <maduser> what else is there to see
[06:05] <MyNameIsURL> I can't install the restricted drivers
[06:05] <maduser> there is a tool for that
[06:05] <MyNameIsURL> it doesnt work for me
[06:05] <MyNameIsURL> at least, it didn't
[06:05] <ardchoille> MyNameIsURL: Which video card do you have?
[06:05] <Kr4t05> Thirdly, what system arcitecture are you running? x86? x64?
[06:05] <MyNameIsURL> x86
[06:06] <Kr4t05> Then, Flash should work fine. I installed it via the kubuntu-restricted-extras package and everything worked.
[06:06] <Kr4t05> !info kubuntu-restricted-extras
[06:06] <ubotu> kubuntu-restricted-extras: Commonly used restricted packages. In component multiverse, is optional. Version 10 (gutsy), package size 3 kB, installed size 32 kB
[06:07] <lovre> hi all
[06:07] <ardchoille> hi lovre
[06:07] <lovre> i downloaded a game and it is in .run format. How do i install/run it=
[06:07] <lovre> ?
[06:07] <MyNameIsURL> It's an NVIDIA chipset
[06:07] <ardchoille> MyNameIsURL: Did yo install nvidia drivers?
[06:08] <MyNameIsURL> I was unable to
[06:08] <Kr4t05> My
[06:08] <ardchoille> Why? Errors?
[06:08] <MyNameIsURL> Adept was giving me a ton of trouble
[06:08] <MyNameIsURL> yes errors
[06:08] <ardchoille> MyNameIsURL: If you give me the model of your nvidia card, I can attempt to help you install the dirvers
[06:09] <dudeicles> how do I install opengl?
[06:09] <MyNameIsURL> my vid card is a NVIDIA Geforce FX Go5600
[06:09] <Kr4t05> dudeicles: OpenGL is installed by default. I can assume you mean 3D accelerated drivers?
[06:09] <MyNameIsURL> well right now I'm fixing to install Dapper
[06:09] <MyNameIsURL> yea
[06:10] <dudeicles> well for some reason my computer thinks I don't have opengl installed
[06:10] <Kr4t05> MyNameIsURL: If anything, you'll have more trouble on Dapper, as it's an older version with less new features, but that might work for you.
[06:10] <Kr4t05> dudeicles: Do you have a 3D enabled graphics driver installed?
[06:10] <dudeicles> well I did
[06:10] <ardchoille> MyNameIsURL: I can help you install nvidia drivers if you want
[06:11] <dudeicles> Kr4t05: check this out http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/45088/
[06:11] <MyNameIsURL> well let me get Dapper installed
[06:12] <dudeicles> that's what I believe shows me if opengl is installed.
[06:12] <MyNameIsURL> 2 minutes then I'll burn the CD then I'll be offline for awhile while I reinstall
[06:13] <MyNameIsURL> this kinda sucks
[06:13] <ardchoille> MyNameIsURL: Would yo mind pastebin your sources.list?
[06:13] <ardchoille> !pastebin
[06:13] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #kubuntu channel topic)
[06:13] <MyNameIsURL> I'm  not running Linux right now
[06:13] <ardchoille> ok
[06:14] <MyNameIsURL> I booted into Windows to burn the CD because my CD burner wasn't working
[06:14] <dudeicles> any ideas Kr4t05?
[06:15] <MyNameIsURL> before I reinstall Linux though, I'll boot into it real quick and pastebin my sources.list
[06:15] <Kr4t05> dudeicles: Hrm, not sure, I'm about to go to bed... Maybe someone else can help you?
[06:15] <dudeicles> ok
[06:15] <MyNameIsURL> can somebody give me a little assistance for awhile?
[06:16] <MyNameIsURL> I can stay up for maybe another hour or so
[06:16] <ardchoille> I can try
[06:16] <MyNameIsURL> I'll reboot now, the LiveCD has finished downloading
[06:16] <MyNameIsURL> this'll be the last chance before I just wipe the whole installation and start fresh
[06:17] <MyNameIsURL> brb
[06:24] <sn00zer> how can i uninstall a program installed from a tarball?
[06:25] <ardchoille> sn00zer: You'll have to unpack it, cd into the folder, run ./configure, make and then sudo make uninstall. That's assuming the developer included an uninstall script.
[06:26] <sn00zer> ardchoille: i'm guessing this -> make: *** No rule to make target `uninstall'.  Stop.
[06:26] <sn00zer>     means there's no uninstall script?
[06:26] <ardchoille> sn00zer: That's an accurate guess
[06:26] <sn00zer> crap... so now what? just delete the directory?
[06:27] <ardchoille> sn00zer: Or you could look at the make file and see where the files get copied to and rm them.
[06:27] <sn00zer> ok
[06:27] <ardchoille> sn00zer: What was the app?
[06:27] <newguyss> hi, how do I add a folder to the /usr/local/ its telling me access denied?
[06:27] <sn00zer> virtualbox but i got it from the website not the repos
[06:28] <ardchoille> newguyss: Why do you want to add a folder there? What are you doing?
[06:28] <ardchoille> sn00zer: That would be a lesson to use the repos instead of compiling
[06:28] <newguyss> I need to add geoserver and it needs to be there
[06:28] <newguyss> ardchoille: any problem in doing so?
[06:29] <sn00zer>  ardchoille: lesson learned
[06:29] <wols_> newguyss: you need to be root
[06:29] <ardchoille> newguyss: Rarely does the user need to add a folder in the system, that's usually taken care of by the package manager. What is telling you to add that folder?
[06:30] <newguyss> wols_: I know:) iam admin, but how to browse as root?
[06:30] <wols_> man sudo
[06:30] <newguyss> ardchoille: the instructions for installing geoserver says that: geoserver-*-bin.zip  After downloading the binary distribution, uncompress _geoserver-*-bin.zip* file to /usr/local (Recommended).  The file will expand the files into /usr/local/geoserver.
[06:31] <wols_> newguyss: you don't need to make a directory then
[06:32] <ardchoille> newguyss: Sounds like you can just untar the tarball using sudo
[06:32] <MyNameIsURL> I cannot believe this
[06:32] <newguyss> wols_: I have unzipped the file to my desktop and now I have a folder named geoserver, and I need to get it in /usr/local/
[06:32] <wols_> newguyss: then move the folder
[06:33] <newguyss> ardchoille: what is the command to untar it there? I have the zip file on my 3desktop
[06:33] <MyNameIsURL> when I logged on, I got a series of dialogs telling me that "Konqueror requires root access"
[06:33] <wols_> MyNameIsURL: can you please stop whining already?
[06:33] <MyNameIsURL> sorry
[06:33] <MyNameIsURL> I just have no idea where this is coming from
[06:33] <ardchoille> newguyss: Is it .zip or .tar.gz or what?
[06:34] <newguyss> ardchoille:  file name is geoserver-1.6.0-RC1-bin.zip
[06:35] <ardchoille> newguyss: if you already have it unzipped, the you should be able to just go into the folder that holds the geoserver folder and do: sudo cp -r geoserver /usr/local
[06:35] <newguyss> you know something ubuntu is the best system ever except for two things, 1- have to remember a million command, 2- kubuntu crashes alot
[06:37] <ardchoille> newguyss: 1 - Linux is more powerful and thus requires more knowledge, 2 - Try not to generalise. What is crashing? kde? konversation? konqueror?
[06:37] <newguyss> ardchoille: sorry KDE
[06:38] <ardchoille> newguyss: So kde crashes.. requiring you to log out or reboot?
[06:38] <sn00zer> newguyss: X is probably your problem, i've had it crash alot but the actual system has only crashed to the point of reboot once on me
[06:38] <ardchoille> I've never had xorg crash on me, guess I've been lucky
[06:38] <newguyss> ardchoille: by the way, Iam also getting everyone I know to use it,
[06:38] <ardchoille> newguyss: W00T!
[06:39] <newguyss> sn00zer: the biggest problem I ever had was that I can to the computer and when I started it the screen was wiped, I could not see any thing, and finally had to format
[06:41] <newguyss> ardchoille: what is WOOT!
[06:43] <MyNameIsURL> ok so how do you want me to post this sources.list?
[06:44] <Jucato> !paste | MyNameIsURL
[06:44] <ubotu> MyNameIsURL: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #kubuntu channel topic)
[06:44] <Jucato> newguyss: synonymous to "yay!"
[06:44] <Jucato> (or "that's great!" or "yahoo!" etc)
[06:45] <MyNameIsURL> you mean post the URL like this?
[06:45] <MyNameIsURL> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/45091/
[06:45] <newguyss> Jucato: thanks, lets face it, linux is great thing
[06:46] <Jucato> MyNameIsURL: yes
[06:46] <MyNameIsURL> "W00t" is actually an expression from the old days of online 1st-person shooter gaming
[06:47] <MyNameIsURL> it's really an acronym that means "We Owned the Other Team"
[06:47] <Jucato> http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Appendix:Internet_slang#W
[06:47] <ardchoille> MyNameIsURL: You have mixed sources, not a good thing.
[06:47] <MyNameIsURL> I think it started on the quake 2 servers back in the mid-90s
[06:48] <ardchoille> MyNameIsURL: Were you having problems with xgl?
[06:48] <MyNameIsURL> I know it's been around a long tiome
[06:48] <MyNameIsURL> anyway, um
[06:48] <ardchoille> Or beryl?
[06:48] <MyNameIsURL> I' having problems installing packages
[06:48] <ardchoille> which packages?
[06:49] <MyNameIsURL> well... the Flash plugin for FF, for one
[06:49] <munk__> can somebody help me make my compiz start at startup? please
[06:49] <maduser> compiz --replace
[06:49] <ardchoille> MyNameIsURL: I got flash installed with: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
[06:50] <MyNameIsURL> now when I log in, I'm getting this dialog that says Konqueror is requiring me to log in as root
[06:50] <munk__> maduser but that only makes it work on this session alone..
[06:50] <MyNameIsURL> yeah that's not working here
[06:50] <ardchoille> MyNameIsURL: What is the error when you try that?
[06:51] <MyNameIsURL> just now, it said:
[06:51] <MyNameIsURL> $ sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
[06:51] <MyNameIsURL> Reading package lists... Done

[06:51] <MyNameIsURL> 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
[06:51] <MyNameIsURL> but
[06:51] <munk__> can somebody help me make my compiz start at startup? please
[06:51] <ardchoille> MyNameIsURL: It's already installed
[06:52] <MyNameIsURL> but it only plays like the 1st half-second of videos
[06:52] <MyNameIsURL> then it doesn't download any more
[06:52] <munk__> can somebody help me make my compiz start at startup? please
[06:52] <ardchoille> MyNameIsURL: Have you tried to see what happens in konqueror?
[06:53] <MyNameIsURL> doesn't work at all in Konqueror
[06:53] <sub[t]rnl> !autostart | munk__
[06:53] <ubotu> munk__: To make programs autostart with your KDE session, you can make a link to it in ~/.kde/Autostart. The package 'kcontrol-autostart' makes a kcontrol item for handling items in that directory.
[06:53] <Matt-T-Campbell> hey all
[06:54] <MyNameIsURL> any ideas?
[06:55] <ardchoille> MyNameIsURL: No ideas about the flash problem.
[06:55] <newguyss> hi, just installed the JDK, any idea where is it installed? I need to change a variable in it
[06:55] <ardchoille> MyNameIsURL: Do you have any files in your home that are owned by root?
[06:55] <MyNameIsURL> ok then I'm going to reinstall the entire OS
[06:55] <MyNameIsURL> in /home/myusername...?
[06:55] <ardchoille> ok
[06:55] <ardchoille> yes
[06:56] <ardchoille> MyNameIsURL: find ~/.kde -user root
[06:57] <MyNameIsURL> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/45095/
[06:59] <ardchoille> MyNameIsURL: files in your home should be owned by your user, not root. That can cause problems.
[06:59] <ardchoille> MyNameIsURL: Sometimes running a gui app with sudo can change a file's ownership
[07:01] <newguyss> guys, where can I do that * Set an environment variable JAVA_HOME to the pathname of the directory
[07:01] <newguyss>   into which you installed the JDK release.
[07:02] <MyNameIsURL> should I delete those files?
[07:04] <ardchoille> MyNameIsURL: No, don't delete them, just change the owner: sudo chown -R jalbert:jalbert ~/.kde/share
[07:08] <MyNameIsURL> the permissions are still set to root
[07:09] <ardchoille> That's weird
[07:09] <MyNameIsURL> ok now they're fixed
[07:10] <MyNameIsURL> now should I uninstall flashplugin-nonfree and reinstall?
[07:12] <MilitantPotat1> Whats a program with a GUI to limit the bandwidth a program uses?
[07:13] <ardchoille> MyNameIsURL: You can try that
[07:14] <MyNameIsURL> "
[07:14] <MyNameIsURL> $ sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
[07:14] <MyNameIsURL> Reading package lists... Done
[07:14] <MyNameIsURL> Building dependency tree
[07:14] <MyNameIsURL> Reading state information... Done
[07:14] <MyNameIsURL> Package flashplugin-nonfree is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[07:14] <MyNameIsURL> This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
[07:14] <MyNameIsURL> is only available from another source
[07:14] <MyNameIsURL> E: Package flashplugin-nonfree has no installation candidate
[07:15] <MyNameIsURL> ok this is the same crap I been dealing with for the past 4 hours
[07:15] <MyNameIsURL> I'm going to reformat and reinstall the whole thing
[07:15] <ardchoille> ok
[07:16] <MyNameIsURL> there's no point in going around and round like this
[07:16] <ardchoille> True
[07:16] <MyNameIsURL> tty later
[07:16] <MyNameIsURL> maybe I'll have betterb luck tomorrow
[07:16] <MyNameIsURL> nite all
[07:16] <MyNameIsURL> and thanks for all the help
[07:16] <MyNameIsURL> I really do appreciate it
[07:17] <ardchoille> yw
[07:17] <MyNameIsURL> oh hey, do you think feisty or edgy would be better choices than dapper?
[07:18] <ardchoille> I would say Feisty. I thought Edgy was rushed, but Feisty was pretty good.
[07:18] <MyNameIsURL> better than Dapper?
[07:18] <ardchoille> I thought so
[07:18] <MyNameIsURL> ok thx
[07:18] <ardchoille> The only advantage Dapper has is that it's supported longer
[07:19] <MyNameIsURL> that's a negligible advantage
[07:19] <ardchoille> You could use Feisty until Hardy is released (the nest LTS)
[07:19] <MyNameIsURL> for Linux
[07:19] <ardchoille> *next
[07:19] <MyNameIsURL> ok
[07:20] <MyNameIsURL> I'm outs
[07:20] <MyNameIsURL> night all
[07:20] <ardchoille> Night
[07:20] <MyNameIsURL> and thanks again
[07:20] <ardchoille> :)
[07:24] <MilitantPotat1> hmm
[07:26] <munk__> can somebody help me make my compiz start at startup? please i tried a few guides and i cant get it to work
[07:28] <MilitantPotat1> feisty?
[07:28] <munk__> gutsy
[07:29] <MilitantPotat1> compiz --replace in a session should work...?
[07:29] <munk__> yes but i want it to start at startup
[07:29] <MilitantPotat1> for the login screen?
[07:29] <Dragonath> munk, when you log on to ubuntu, you need to choose a compiz session instead of the kde session
[07:30] <munk__> Dragonath but there is no compiz session to pick..
[07:30] <Dragonath> ah
[07:30] <Dragonath> there was a tutorial somewhere
[07:30] <munk__> MilitantPotat1: no not at loging screen but after...i just dont want to have to put compiz --replace everytime i reboot
[07:31] <maduser> then write a script and cron it to go at every start up
[07:31] <Dragonath> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager/CompizFusion
[07:31] <munk__> maduser lol if i knew how to do that i would..
[07:31] <Dragonath> there's a bit about running compiz on startup there
[07:32] <munk__> Dragonath thank you thats what i was looking for
[07:33] <maduser> iit sould go after you type compiz --replace
[07:33] <maduser> then it should go everytime at boot automaticly
[07:34] <maduser> if it does not you did somthing wrong
[07:34] <MilitantPotat1> Whats a *easy* to use program that limits bandwidth per application?

[08:38] <patricio> networkmanager stopped auto-dhcp'ing or finding my network connections(lan and wlan), accesspoints nearby are not listed anymore (kde 3.5.8, knetworkmanager 0.2), but it's not knetworkmanager but network-manager-kde + network-manager, anyway.
[08:38] <patricio> what shall I do? is this a dbus/hal issue?
[08:39] <patricio> I can only go with "manual configuration", and I have to connect wlan/lan via commandline-orders..
[08:49] <Xeross> Hey
[08:50] <patricio> hi
[08:50] <Xeross> grub keeps saying that it cannot mount my kubuntu partition but its pointing to the correct partition.
[09:01] <Xeross> how do i fix that ?
[09:01] <MilitantPotato> !grub
[09:01] <ubotu> grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[09:05] <Xeross> cant find it there
[09:05] <kraut> moin
[09:06] <MilitantPotato> you checked menu.lst?
[09:07] <Xeross> ye
[09:07] <Xeross> points to correct partition
[09:07] <MilitantPotato> mind pastebining it?
[09:08] <Xeross> im on winblows now
[09:11] <MilitantPotato> so it says something like (hd0,0)
[09:11] <MilitantPotato> or something like /dev/sda1
[09:11] <Xeross> it sais (hd1,7)
[09:12] <MilitantPotato> is grub on hd0?
[09:12] <Xeross> no
[09:12] <Xeross> hd1
[09:13] <MilitantPotato> I'm wondering if the bios boot order was changed?
[09:13] <Xeross> i put grub and linux on second hd
[09:13] <Xeross> and windows xp on first
[09:14] <Xeross> and i change boot order if i want to boot linux
[09:15] <Xeross> ok opened my menu.lst
[09:16] <MilitantPotato> well
[09:16] <MilitantPotato> if you
[09:16] <MilitantPotato> ....
[09:16] <Xeross> ok
[09:16] <Xeross> ill only post
[09:16] <Xeross> uncommented
[09:16] <MilitantPotato> Changing the boot order in bios will change the HD* numbers...
[09:16] <Xeross> so
[09:16] <MilitantPotato> I think at least...
[09:16] <Xeross> it will be hd0,7

[09:17] <Xeross> captain nemo ftw xd
[09:18] <MilitantPotato> why not just make grub your boot loader?
[09:20] <Xeross> im not so familiar with linux etc yet
[09:20] <MilitantPotato> ah
[09:20] <MilitantPotato> so when you boot to linux, you change the bios to boot from the HD linux is on?
[09:20] <Xeross> ye
[09:20] <MilitantPotato> what happens if you don't do that?
[09:20] <Xeross> it boots windows
[09:21] <MilitantPotato> well, if ya stop doing that you can load windows from the GRUB list
[09:21] <MilitantPotato> does it list Linux and windows in that list?
[09:21] <Xeross> ye
[09:21] <inversekinetix> why dont you just use winGRUB and add one line to windows boot.ini file
[09:21] <MilitantPotato> what happens when you scroll down and select windows?
[09:21] <Xeross> i was thinking about that yes
[09:21] <Xeross> it gives
[09:21] <Xeross> some error
[09:22] <Xeross> about a file that cant be loaded
[09:22] <MilitantPotato> ./boot something?
[09:22] <Xeross> no
[09:22] <inversekinetix> do this   http://users.bigpond.net.au/hermanzone/p9.html
[09:22] <inversekinetix> ntldr ?
[09:22] <Xeross> ye
[09:23] <MilitantPotato> he could just change the hd1,7's to hd0,7's
[09:23] <Xeross> ye
[09:23] <MilitantPotato> and the windows from hd0,0 to hd1,0 right?
[09:23] <Xeross> ill try that
[09:23] <MilitantPotato> wait
[09:23] <MilitantPotato> let the other people comment, I'm new aswell :)
[09:23] <inversekinetix> i dont know nothing
[09:24] <inversekinetix> just fixed what grub did with wingrub
[09:24] <Xeross> ill
[09:24] <Xeross> try
[09:24] <Xeross> changing hd numbers
[09:24] <Xeross> when kubuntu is done installing on vmware
[09:24] <inversekinetix> youre installing kubuntu on vmware?
[09:24] <Xeross> also
[09:25] <Xeross> its installed on my pc
[09:25] <Xeross> but didnt work yet
[09:25] <MilitantPotato> you'll need to bios boot drive to be the linux one
[09:25] <Xeross> i know
[09:25] <Xeross> else i couldnt get into grub ;)
[09:26] <MilitantPotato> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/45111/
[09:26] <MilitantPotato> I beleive like that
[09:27] <MilitantPotato> if you break grub, you can always burn a grub repair disk
[09:27] <MilitantPotato> I use the Ultimate Boot CD.
[09:27] <MilitantPotato> They make an Ultimate boot CD for windows too, both are extremely usefull
[09:28] <aceler> Hi
[09:28] <aceler> yesterday I askef jussi01 about fglrx driver in RT kernel
[09:28] <aceler> Here is an error:
[09:28] <aceler> FATAL: modpost: GPL-incompatible module fglrx.ko uses GPL-only symbol '__rcu_read_lock'
[09:29] <aceler> The driver in linux-restricted-modules-rt is too old, and does not support Radeon HD2600O
[09:29] <MilitantPotato> RT?
[09:29] <aceler> Yes
[09:30] <wols_> aceler: where did you get that rt kernel?
[09:30] <aceler> The default kernel accept the kernel module from Ati
[09:30] <aceler> wols_: yes, of course
[09:30] <wols_> where did you get that rt kernel?
[09:30] <aceler> I'va got rt kernel, rt-header, rt-modules and so on
[09:30] <aceler> Oops. From repository, of course :0
[09:30] <aceler> O:-)
[09:30] <wols_> which one?
[09:31] <aceler> 2.6.22-14
[09:31] <aceler> 2.6.22-14-rt, exactly
[09:31] <wols_> sigh. can you stop that and answer the question actually posed?
[09:31] <wols_> which repository, url? packagename?
[09:32] <aceler> Where did I get the RT kernel? From ubuntu repository
[09:32]  * wols_ gives up
[09:32] <aceler> ru.ubuntu-archive.com, package name linux-image-2.6.22-14-rt
[09:32] <aceler> Sorry.
[09:39] <aceler> ru.archive.ubuntu.com, exactly O:-)
[09:45] <aceler> Well. I found this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=591445
[09:45] <aceler> My problem is the same
[09:45] <aceler> as gmaniac said
[09:45] <Xeross> now going to reboot
[09:48] <MilitantPotato> aceler: im reading it
[09:48] <wols_> aceler: fyi, "universe" is not ubuntu
[09:49] <aceler> Eh.... I didn't know
[09:49] <wols_> !universe
[09:49] <ubotu> The packages in Kubuntu are divided into various sections. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Kubuntu
[09:49] <aceler> It's new for me, thanks
[09:50] <wols_> "Universe (community-maintained, i.e. not officially supported software) "
[09:55] <MilitantPotato> The reason that fglrx won't compile with the realtime kernel is because it was compiled with paravirtualization support enabled, which causes problems because flgrx is not GPL.
[09:55] <MilitantPotato> Recompile the kernel without paravirtualization support and it should work.
[09:55] <MilitantPotato> whoops
[09:57] <MilitantPotato> aceler: ^
[09:57] <slayer_> .
[09:57] <aceler> I have to recompile the kernel?
[09:57] <aceler> Well... :)
[09:58] <MilitantPotato> aceler: looks that way, don't bother unless you're experienced with doing it or don't mind a lot of trouble shooting is what I was told
[09:59] <aceler> I am experienced with kernel compiling, no problem, but I thought toi forget it under ubuntu :)
[09:59] <aceler> toi -> to
[10:00] <aceler> Well, thanks a lot!!
[10:02] <wols_> aceler: only if you stay with supported software
[10:02] <aceler> ...and hardware :)
[10:03] <slayer_> hi guys - my english ist not very well, but i try to explain my problem

[10:14] <Alloosh> Hi, anybody used geoserver before?
[10:15] <wols_> !Polls
[10:15] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about polls - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[10:15] <wols_> Alloosh: ask a real question
[10:16] <Alloosh> wols_: I get 404 in the geoserver at port 8080 and when I close the terminal the server goes down
[10:17] <wols_> you need to run the thing in daemon mode or use something like nohup
[10:17] <wols_> tho, since it's called server, it should have a daemon mode
[10:20] <lokpest> so... how do I get Konqueror to start in maximized window?
[10:21] <MilitantPotato> does anyone use trickle or something similar?
[10:21] <progreSSive> hi everybody
[10:21] <progreSSive> i have a sound problem, and would be happy if anyone could help me out
[10:22] <progreSSive> i have updated to ubuntu 7.10
[10:22] <progreSSive> and now the sound has gone
[10:22] <wols_> run alsaconf again perhaps
[10:23] <progreSSive> bash: alsaconf: command not found
[10:23] <progreSSive> how to run it? ))
[10:23] <progreSSive> i have alsactl and alsamixer
[10:23] <progreSSive> matching the alsa keyword
[10:24] <Xeross> it works :D
[10:25] <progreSSive> i've tried to run "asoundconf list", but it does not list anything
[10:25] <wols_> progreSSive: is alsa-utils installed?
[10:25] <progreSSive> "lsmod | grep snd" does not list anything either
[10:26] <progreSSive> wols_: i guess so
[10:26] <wols_> don#t guess. check
[10:26] <progreSSive> wols_: i have /etc/init.d/alsa-utils
[10:26] <progreSSive> wols_: or any other ways to check it?:)
[10:27] <wols_> progreSSive: man dpkg
[10:27] <progreSSive> "lspci" lists the sound card: 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801G (ICH7 Family) High Definition Audio Controller (rev 01)
[10:27] <wols_> and I didn't ask for a script.I asked for alsa-utils the package
[10:29] <progreSSive> wols_: could you please tell me where i can get the alsa-utils package?
[10:29] <knulfine> hi there. Can someone give me the link for a german channel?
[10:29] <wols_> same place where you get all your others packages

[10:30] <progreSSive> wols_: alsa-utils is already the newest version. :)
[10:30] <wols_> progreSSive: then you have alsaconf
[10:31] <progreSSive> wols_: as far as i get, alsaconf is just a script, right? and i run it by typing "alsaconf"?
[10:32] <wols_> pretty much yes
[10:32] <wols_> you change config. you need to be root for that
[10:34] <progreSSive> wols_: maybe you mean "asoundconf"
[10:34] <progreSSive> cause honestly, i dont have alsaconf

[10:50] <vbgunz> heh, thats uninstalled
[10:57] <xeross> how can i edit sources,list
[10:58] <Lynoure> xeross: ksudo kate /etc/apt/sources.list
[10:59] <WaltzingAlong> kdesudo*
[10:59] <Lynoure> xeross: or   sudo editorofyourchoice /etc/apt/sources.list
[10:59] <xeross> ok
[10:59] <WaltzingAlong> xeross: you can also place entries in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/
[10:59] <xeross> i just need to uncomment stuff
[10:59] <Lynoure> WaltzingAlong: indeed... too much cli, clearly. :)
[10:59] <xeross> had no internet during install
[10:59] <xeross> so he commmented sources
[11:00] <xst> In Gwenview I click External Tools > The Gimp but get the error message: "Could not find the program 'The'". What is wrong?
[11:00] <WaltzingAlong> xeross: you could also change the settings through adept manager; in the manage repositories
[11:00] <WaltzingAlong> xst: is gimp installed?
[11:00] <xst> I have reported the bug in launchpad but nobody has responded. :-(
[11:01] <xst> WaltzingAlong: Yes. But notice the error message. It thinks the program is called "The"...
[11:01] <xeross> good
[11:01] <xeross> updates work again
[11:01] <xeross> :D
[11:01] <WaltzingAlong> xst: sure. in gwenview change the external tool for the gimp from gimp-2.3 to gimp
[11:02] <WaltzingAlong> xst: right mouse click the pic, external tools, configure external tools then find gimp, change it like i mentioned
[11:03] <WaltzingAlong> xst: you could also use gimp-remote instead so new pictures will get opened in existing running instances of gimp
[11:04] <xeross> xserver is kde right
[11:05] <WaltzingAlong> xst: the error message shows you the presentation name it has been given, not the command it is trying to execute (which is gimp-2.3 -n )
[11:06] <xst> WaltzingAlong: The problem seems only to occur when I specify gimp-remote as executable. "gimp-remote" can be launched from commandline just fine, however. Very strange. If I specify "gimp" as executable, it works fine
[11:06] <xst> WaltzingAlong: No it is not gimp-2.3, but gimp-remote
[11:07] <xst> Aha
[11:07] <xst> And the problem sees to be that gimp-remote doesn't understand the -n option
[11:07] <WaltzingAlong> xst: gimp-remote but no other parameters other tahn
[11:07] <WaltzingAlong> yes
[11:08] <WaltzingAlong> than* the file to open  (gimp -n but gimp-remote without the -n)
[11:09] <WaltzingAlong> xst: -n specifies that gimp should start a new instance. gimp-remote is a way to use the running instance so -n makes no sense with gimp-remote. the program should respond "Make up your mind!" :D
[11:15] <xst> In dolphin, I rightclick on an image and select Open With > Gimp Image Editor, but get the message: Service '/home/xst/.local/share/applications/gimp-2.2.desktop' is malformatted.
[11:16] <xst> What to do?
[11:17] <xst> Where do I modify the paths to the list of "Open With"-applications?
[11:17] <WaltzingAlong> xst: with gutsy you have gimp 2.4, not 2.2. open with, other, find the gimp you wish to open
[11:17] <WaltzingAlong> xst: otherwise in kcontrol / file associations
[11:19] <xst> WaltzingAlong: I just did a distro upgrade from Feisty to Gutsy so isn't this a bug in the upgrade?
[11:19] <xst> What does Joe Average do about this problem in general? Is he forced to use kcontrol too?
[11:20] <WaltzingAlong> xst: perhaps the shortcuts should point to gimp rather than specific versions; otherwise these settings are stored under your personal settings
[11:20] <WaltzingAlong> xst: you are the first i have seen here to bring it up but i suppose modifying the file associations is the way to go
[11:22] <WaltzingAlong> xst: so previous versions should have pointed to 'gimp' rather than 'gimp-2.2'; i would not want the dist upgrade tool modifying my personal settings to fix issues with remaining references gimp-2.2 when gimp-2.4 is installed instead
[11:24] <xst> WaltzingAlog: Inspecting the file associations more closely I can see that there are two gimp entries. One that just refers to "gimp" and one that refers to "gimp-2.2"
[11:29] <WaltzingAlong> xst: gimp 2.4 is installed with gutsy. /usr/bin/gimp is merely a link to the installed gimp at /usr/bin/gimp-2.4     gimp-2.2 probably does not exist anymore on your gutsy

[11:45] <aravind_> Hi!
[11:45] <aravind_> I set up my bluetooth headset after referring http://wiki.bluez.org/wiki/HOWTO/AudioDevices
[11:45] <aravind_> It works fine, except that when the track changes on amarok, the alsa device set to 'bluetooth' reverts back to 'default' and the track plays on my laptop speakers. I'm using kubuntu 7.10. I'm not sure what other details are required...
[11:45] <aravind_> 1. Is there any way to set the 'stereo' field under the alsa plugin in amarok engine configuration settings to bluetooth permanently?
[11:45] <aravind_> 2. Better still, can I set this for one session when I open amarok from terminal using some command line arguments?
[11:45] <aravind_> 3. Can I set up some script to do this automatically by having some alias for amarok - amarok_bluetooth?
[11:45] <aravind_> Thanks!
[11:46] <WaltzingAlong> aravind_: you could also check in #kde
[12:01] <vbgunz> how can I get the kdesu dialog to popup? I mean, it doesn't popup anymore. thats convenient but I am trying to test something. can I log out of kdesu?
[12:01] <ActionParsnip> vbgunz: what happens when you execute kdesu <command>
[12:01] <vbgunz> got it
[12:01] <vbgunz> kdesu -s
[12:02] <vbgunz> ActionParsnip: it appears kdesu now remembers you the way sudo does. for a limited time, you're able to repeat your kdesu commands but without the prompt
[12:03] <ActionParsnip> vbgunz: yeah man its pretty cool
[12:03] <vbgunz> heh, but trying to test something :)
[12:03] <ActionParsnip> vbgunz: same with sudo, as long as you type comands you dont need to repassword
[12:04] <ActionParsnip> vbgunz: then use su <some user account> (may work not sure)
[12:04] <vbgunz> yeah, this is new behavior for kdesu in Gutsy
[12:04] <ActionParsnip> vbgunz: sudo had it in feisty
[12:05] <vbgunz> sudo yes, kdesu no
[12:05] <vbgunz> :)
[12:05] <ActionParsnip> vbgunz: oic
[12:05] <ActionParsnip> vbgunz: good to know
[12:05] <ardchoille> Is there a graphical kdesudo that gives the user a list of app to choose from (like gksudo)?
[12:06] <ardchoille> Well, rather than a list, the gui utility allowed the user to type in an app, similar to the Run dialog
[12:07] <ActionParsnip> ardchoille: kdesudo
[12:07] <ActionParsnip> ardchoille: try that
[12:07] <ActionParsnip> ardchoille: kdesudo is a grafical frontend to the sudo command
[12:07] <ardchoille> ActionParsnip: it gives errors when you don't imclude a command
[12:07] <WaltzingAlong> ardchoille: not that i know
[12:07] <ardchoille> ActionParsnip: that doesn't work like gksudo
[12:08] <ActionParsnip> ardchoille: its just something i quickly googled
[12:08] <vbgunz> hmm, using kdesu how do you hide the command that you're actually executing?
[12:08] <vbgunz> it's quite a long command, very long, using -d does not hide it
[12:09] <ardchoille> vbgunz: kdesu -d  ?
[12:09] <ardchoille> oh
[12:09] <ardchoille> Was reading from the man page
[12:09] <vbgunz> ardchoille: yeah, either kdesu -d -c OR kdesu -dc doesn't actually hide the command
[12:09] <ardchoille> kdesu/kdesudo are confusing
[12:09] <vbgunz> they seem to be identical
[12:10] <vbgunz> I am sure they're different but am used to kdesu
[12:10] <ardchoille> In Gutsy, kdesu is a symlink to kdesudo
[12:10] <WaltzingAlong> on gutsy /usr/bin/kdesu points to kdesudo
[12:12] <vbgunz> is hiding a long command in kdesu possible? I thought -d would do it but it doesn't or I have it wrong :(
[12:13] <WaltzingAlong> vbgunz: i think kdesu could do it but from what i know kdesudo cannot
[12:14] <vbgunz> :O
[12:14] <WaltzingAlong> *not claiming to know everything* however, vbgunz :D
[12:15] <vbgunz> I believe you're right. if kdesu really does symlink to kdesudo, man kdesudo does not show any support for the -d option :(
[12:15] <philipp_> hi
[12:15] <ardchoille> vbgunz: I think the man page may be outdated or wrong
[12:15] <philipp_> i need help with my intel X3100 graphics card
[12:15] <philipp_> video-out seems not to work...
[12:16] <philipp_> is there something i have to activate to get it to run
[12:18] <ardchoille> vbgunz: However, /usr/bin/kdesu.distrib does hide the command
[12:18] <ardchoille> vbgunz: /usr/bin/kdesu.distrib long_command_here
[12:18] <vbgunz> hmm
[12:19] <vbgunz> ardchoille: you are my new applepie
[12:19] <vbgunz> nice find!
[12:19] <vbgunz> thank you!
[12:19] <ardchoille> yw
[12:20] <ardchoille> vbgunz: Found that with "locate desu | more"
[12:20] <vbgunz> heh, actually it doesn't hide the long command at all
[12:20] <vbgunz> you are no longer my new applepie
[12:20] <vbgunz> I take that back
[12:21] <vbgunz> :)
[12:21] <WaltzingAlong> easy come easy go
[12:21] <vbgunz> heh
[12:22] <ardchoille> vbgunz: Hides it here
[12:22] <vbgunz> ahh, I see what it is... kdesudo actually shows it twice
[12:22] <r0y4l> anyone here with a sli ready and working xorg.conf?
[12:22] <vbgunz> I don't mind the kdesu.distrib version at all. it is better.
[12:23] <vbgunz> again, you are my applepie
[12:23] <ardchoille> hehe
[12:23] <vbgunz> haha
[12:25] <vbgunz> ardchoille: you are not only my new applepie but you are now officially coolwhipped with a cherry on top
[12:25] <vbgunz> that does hide the command completely... I just left off the -d option, sorry
[12:26] <ardchoille> :)
[12:38] <WaltzingAlong> pos: congrats. welcome to the #kubuntu community
[12:43] <Downix> Morning
[12:45] <WaltzingAlong> Downix: morning to you
[12:47] <Downix> how are you today?
[12:48] <jussi01> !nvu > jussi01
[12:49] <vt01> ???
[12:49] <WaltzingAlong> all is well Downix
[12:49] <vt04> hola eve
[12:49] <vt01> hola Osiris!
[12:53] <vt04> hoal
[12:57] <Downix> good to hear
[13:09] <mapkoz> hi
[13:09] <mapkoz> anybody here is expert with database creation?
[13:09] <shinobi> hey. anyone know why my xubuntu box will not mount fat32 partitions on a external usb drive? mounts the ext3 on the same drive fine, and all four partitions on the drive show up fine on the desktop, but refuses to mount with 'wrong file system' error
[13:09] <mapkoz> I have to create a database for work
[13:10] <shinobi> i know this is not xubuntu channel, but i run kubuntu normally and this xubntu box is a bit of an experimental jukebox on old hardware
[13:17] <sn00zer> shinobi: does $sudo mount -t fat32 /dev/<device> /media/<folder> work for you
[13:19] <shinobi> yes
[13:19] <shinobi> sn00zer i can mount manually no worries
[13:20] <shinobi> sn00zer just seems the automount is screwy, and i wanted to avoid tailing my dmesg and stuff if it was a known issue
[13:20] <shinobi> in fact, it auto detects the vfat in the mount command
[13:20] <sn00zer> shinobi: i'd check your fstab first
[13:20] <shinobi> sn00zer it's an external removeable so has no fstab entry
[13:21] <sn00zer> oh ok
[13:21] <sn00zer> shinobi: flash or hdd?
[13:21] <shinobi> hdd
[13:22] <shinobi> sn00zer it's a 500gb external in four partitions
[13:22] <shinobi> sn00zer the ext3 partiton is detected fine
[13:22] <sn00zer> hmm
[13:23] <shinobi> sn00zer sorry i should say it's mounted okay
[13:23] <shinobi> sn00zer as in automounted and so on
[13:23] <sn00zer> shinobi: i don't know what to tell you, i have my 500gb external in my fstab, its in 2 partitions one raw and one ntfs
[13:24] <shinobi> could you paste bin your fstab so i could try adding my external drives to mine too, i guess that would help also to make the mount point static
[13:26] <sn00zer> shinobi: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/45117/ its on line 16
[13:27] <Downix> you know, listening to fedora folk talking about yum vs apt... I think they don't fully grasp the arguement
[13:27] <ardchoille> Indeed
[13:28] <Downix> same when I hang out in solaris chatrooms
[13:28] <Downix> save they seem to have a chip on their shoulder
[13:28] <shinobi> sn00zer thankyou
[13:28] <sn00zer> no problem
[13:28] <sn00zer> shinobi: did that fix it for you?
[13:32] <shinobi> sn00zer i'm going to plug in something like that into my fstab on that xubuntu box and see how i go, i always thought the fstab line was gonna be more complicated than that, i'll adjust for vfat of course...
[13:41] <sailor> hey guys, using feisty and whenever i click "fetch updates" in adept-manager, it grabs a list and then crash's
[13:42] <sailor> i cant get to the next part of doing the dist upgrade :(
[13:42] <sailor> any ideas?
[13:47] <NetersLandreau> has anyone experienced a problem with fish protocol in gutsy.. doesn't seem to want to connect to a remote host
[13:47] <sailor> its driving me nuts, as id love to update to gutsy and be done with it :)
[13:47] <sailor> adept-manager just dies after i click fetch updates - every time without fail
[13:48] <NetersLandreau> sailor, i kinda wish my update had failed..
[13:48] <_sahin_w_> NetersLandreau: Fish works for me, however I did a fresh install (as I always do).
[13:48] <pag> sailor, imho just use apt  -even if you get adept to work, it will still probably freeze at some point.. apt just works :)
[13:48] <NetersLandreau> how do you mean _sahin_w_?
[13:49] <sailor> NetersLandreau: ive done a sucsessful update to gutsy on another machine
[13:49] <sailor> pag: a whole dist upgrade?
[13:49] <_sahin_w_> I mean I have no problem with fish. My installation a fresh install and not an upgraded one from feisty.
[13:49] <ActionParsnip> sailor: just use sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
[13:49] <pag> sailor, yup? why not? Adpet is just a graphical frontend after all.
[13:49] <sn00zer> sailor: in #ubuntu they are talking about how gutsy is killing CRT monitors
[13:50] <tuxwulf> Can I automount my USB drives?
[13:50] <sn00zer> just something to think about before going through with it
[13:50] <Lynoure> tuxwulf: usually automount happens, automatically...
[13:50] <sailor> pag: ok, im not familar with doing a dist upgrade from shell. are there some instructions somewhere?
[13:50] <pag> sailor, change every feisty to gutsy in sources.list and do " sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade"
[13:50] <sailor> pag: righto
[13:50] <tuxwulf> Lynoure: Yeah my flashdrives, it does, but not USB IDE drives
[13:50] <sailor> pag: ill take out 3'rd party repos first
[13:51] <pag> sailor, *if* upgrade goes well, you should have a working system in an hour (depending on your internet connection though)
[13:51] <ardchoille> pag , sailor That's not the recommended update method, you'll miss apps that way
[13:51] <_sahin_w_> tuxwulf: Are these drives always connected to your machine?
[13:51] <pag> ardchoille, oh... really? :O
[13:51] <tuxwulf> _sahin_w_: No...
[13:51] <sailor> ardchoille: id use adept-manager but it keeps dieing on me :/
[13:52] <ardchoille> pag: That will upgrade what you already have, not install apps that were new to Gutsy but weren't in Feisty. And, some folks report that method of upgrade breaks things.
[13:52] <_sahin_w_> tuxwulf: Hmmm. When I plug my usb drive into my system, Kubuntu simply offer to me a mount option trough a dialog.
[13:53] <pag> ardchoille, oh. didn't know that. sorry.
[13:53] <ardchoille> sailor: Your best bet is to find out why adept is dying before you upgrade
[13:53] <tuxwulf> _sahin_w_: ... Which version ...?
[13:53] <_sahin_w_> tuxwulf: I know this is "half" automatic. ;-)
[13:53] <_sahin_w_> tuxwulf: Kubuntu Gutsy (7.10)
[13:53] <tuxwulf> _sahin_w_: Half auto would be great already...!
[13:53]  * genii sips a coffee
[13:53] <sailor> ardchoille: yeah ive been looking for the past hour, keep finding bug reports on it, but not much else
[13:53] <tuxwulf> _sahin_w_: ... ah... I am still on Feisty...
[13:54] <tuxwulf> Did someone say coffee...?
[13:54] <sailor> ive removed my sources list file and re-created it etc: still it dies every time i click "fetch updates"
[13:54]  * genii hands tuxwulf a coffee as well
[13:54] <_sahin_w_> tuxwulf: I have to say I didn't encountered any USB driver related problem on my system when I use Feisty.
[13:55] <_sahin_w_> tuxwulf: Did you check the syslog? I mean is your system relalize your usb disc?
[13:56] <_sahin_w_> tuxwulf: One more note: Is your user in the plugdev group?
[13:56]  * tuxwulf thanks genii...!
[13:57] <sailor> has anyone else had problems with adept_manager crashing on clicking "fetch updates" and solved it?
[13:57] <tuxwulf> _sahin_w_: syslog: Yes, heck. The system knows it gets plugged in
[13:57] <genii> tuxwulf: anytime :)
[13:58] <ardchoille> sailor: Perhaps run it from a terminal and see if there is any error output? kdesudo adept_manager
[13:58] <_sahin_w_> tuxwulf: And is your user a member of the plugdev group?
[13:59] <z1pp3r> Is it possible to make boot up, and shutting down a little more verbose than just watching the progress bar?
[13:59] <_sahin_w_> tuxwulf: Ubuntu use pmount instead of usbmount to mount an external usb device.
[13:59] <z1pp3r> like, showing which daemons are shutting down/starting
[13:59] <_sahin_w_> tuxwulf: And some kind of security reason pmount only usable by the plugdeb group members.
[14:00] <_sahin_w_> tuxwulf: So this is why I'm wondering about that.
[14:00] <tuxwulf> _sahin_w_: I'll check, a moment....
[14:00] <_sahin_w_> tuxwulf: Ok.
[14:00] <sailor> ardchoille: http://pastebin.com/d6d64860d
[14:01] <sailor> the last line is what comes up after it has gone through its normal list
[14:03] <tuxwulf> _sahin_w_: Yep, he is member of plugdev
[14:03] <sailor> ardchoille: this is my sources.list file: http://pastebin.com/d69e556d3
[14:05] <_sahin_w_> tuxwulf: And what did you find in syslog? Did kubuntu assigned a device name to your device?
[14:05] <ardchoille> sailor: Well, the "Failed to open device" errors can be ignored
[14:05] <ardchoille> !baddevice | sailor
[14:05] <ubotu> sailor: If you are receiving an error similar to "X Error: BadDevice, invalid or uninitialized input device 168", it can be safely ignored. If you want to get rid of the error messages then please visit this page: http://seerofsouls.com/wiki/How-Tos/BadDeviceErrors
[14:06] <_sahin_w_> tuxwulf: I'm going to plug my usb disc to the system and I will show you the messages. Maybe you can find some differences.
[14:06] <sailor> ardchoille: yeah thats ok, im not fussed about that, i just want to upgrade :(
[14:06] <ardchoille> sailor: But I don't know why you're having the crash. fwiw, the propsed and backports repos are not "official" and I have had them break apps on my computers.
[14:06] <tuxwulf> _sahin_w_: Yes. The system assigned sdi. sdi1 for the filesys, it seems, and I can mount it by hand.
[14:07] <_sahin_w_> tuxwulf: Did you add /dev/sdi1 to the /etc/fstab? I hope you didn't.
[14:08] <_sahin_w_> tuxwulf: I mean pmount won't work in case the device in the fstab.
[14:08] <tuxwulf> _sahin_w_:  > No, I did not edit any fstab or mtab or anything.
[14:08] <_sahin_w_> tuxwulf: Good.
[14:09] <sailor> ardchoille: ok thanks, yeah i have tried just about every combination of selection of repo's but no dice
[14:09] <sailor> it just doesnt want to do "fetch updates"
[14:09] <sailor> .. and stay alive
[14:10] <_sahin_w_> tuxwulf: Here's an example of a sucessful mount: http://pastebin.com/d6f119d1f
[14:10] <tuxwulf> _sahin_w_: Checking ...
[14:10] <_sahin_w_> tuxwulf: Maybe you can find some differences.
[14:11] <sailor> ardchoille: anyways its 1am im dead thanks anyways but ill try here again in a few hours. Perhaps someone else may be awake by then to give me a hand
[14:16] <tuxwulf> _sahin_w_: ... veeeery interesting... it seems that NetworkManager takes over to automount it ...?
[14:17] <_sahin_w_> tuxwulf: Well, I don't know the exact details. Is your log not contains these networkmanager things?
[14:18] <tuxwulf> _sahin_w_: Precisely.. up to those NetworkManager msgs, all is the same.  AFter that, nothing...
[14:19] <tuxwulf> _sahin_w_: Well I can nmount it by hand, that is basically good enough ...
[14:19] <_sahin_w_> tuxwulf: Maybe try to use google and use these words: NetworkManager feisty usb mount
[14:20] <_sahin_w_> tuxwulf: Maybe you can find something which is related to your problem.
[14:20] <Downix> hmm, how do I change the default office app in Kubuntu?
[14:20] <Downix> the editor wants staroffice as default rather than open office
[14:20] <tuxwulf> _sahin_w_: Yeah, thanks... I am steps ahead....!
[14:20] <Downix> no idea why, but it's fine with me
[14:20] <_sahin_w_> tuxwulf: No problem.
[14:21] <_sahin_w_> Downix: You can chose what kind of application want to use for a specific file type.
[14:22] <_sahin_w_> Downix: Right click on the file > open with other > chose you program and don't forget to mark "Remeber application for this file type"
[14:23] <Downix> let me check
[14:23] <Jucato> (or in Konqueror -> Settings -> Configure Konqueror -> File Associations)
[14:23] <_sahin_w_> Jucato: And yes this the other way.
[14:24] <_sahin_w_> Jucato: From the usabilty perspective I't a shame there is no way to set this from Dolphin like in Konqueror.
[14:25] <_sahin_w_> Jucato: I mean Dolphin -> Settings -> ...
[14:25] <Jucato> _sahin_w_: not really sure, but maybe the settings are there in the real Dolphin (KDE 4)
[14:26] <_sahin_w_> Jucato: I hope so! ;-)
[14:27] <_sahin_w_> Jucato: I have only minor experience with KDE4. I use it only for testing the actual shape of the KDE4.
[14:27] <_sahin_w_> Jucato: However I'm waiting for KDE4 as a XMASS gift like a child.
[14:27] <Jucato> :)
[14:27] <Jucato> who isn't?
[14:28] <Jucato> (besides the GNOME people of course :P)
[14:28] <Downix> got it
[14:28] <_sahin_w_> Yes, I'm sure every KDE fanatic/fan/user does.
[14:28] <rjune> they are too
[14:28] <rjune> they want to know what cool features to implement next
[14:28] <Downix> now, his next issue, he wants to connect to a samba folder directly
[14:28] <Jucato> well, the die-hard ones then :)
[14:28] <Downix> guess this means setting up nfs
[14:28] <rjune> nope.
[14:29] <rjune> NFS != samba
[14:29] <rjune> You can use smbmount and smbfs
[14:29] <rjune> or in KDE, you can do smb://server
[14:29] <Downix> that's the problem
[14:29] <Downix> we are smb://server'ing it, but he wants it to show up as a "drive letter"
[14:29] <rjune> Uhmmm...
[14:30] <rjune> do smbmount on login then
[14:30] <_sahin_w_> Drive letter means permanent mount maybe in the linux world.
[14:30] <Downix> he's used windows too long
[14:30] <_sahin_w_> I guess.
[14:30] <Jucato> O.o
[14:30] <Downix> _sahin_w_: that would be my guess
[14:30] <rjune> _sahin_w_: some apps don't accept smb:// URLs, mostly because they're retarded
[14:30] <Downix> right, like Star Office
[14:30]  * Jucato knows a couple of Windows users who use LABELs instead of hard drive letters..
[14:30] <harry_> Hi all, can someone help me get the volume icon back onto the desktop>?
[14:31] <harry_> 7.10 kde ubunto
[14:31] <_sahin_w_> Yes, because these aren't kde application.
[14:32] <Downix> right
[14:32] <harry_> i have sound but its TOO loud.... I cant adjust it without a little help...
[14:32] <Jucato> harry_: run K Menu -> Multimedia -> KMix
[14:32] <Downix> KOffice isn't up to snuff, but this guy found open office "too weak"
[14:32] <sethk> Downix, too weak for what?
[14:33] <Downix> sethk:  no idea.  I find it's more than suitable for me.
[14:33] <harry_> Im in kmix but where is the button to check for the icon on the toolbar?
[14:33] <sethk> Downix, I actually prefer it in many ways to m$ office.
[14:33] <_sahin_w_> Downix: I have a descritption who can you create a permanent smbmount.
[14:34] <sethk> harry_, My memory is vague, but I believe you'll find it in the configuration dialog.
[14:34] <Downix> sethk:  I do as well.  Symphony is quite good as well.
[14:34] <Downix> _sahin_w_: I'm figuring it out.  Just fustrating.  Thankfully, I can ssh into his box and fix it from here
[14:34] <Jucato> harry_: when you run it, it should already be in the system tray part of the KDE panel
[14:34] <sethk> Downix, haven't played with symphony
[14:34] <harry_> I dont see anything about config
[14:34] <_sahin_w_> Downix: Ok.
[14:34] <sballard> ma cose??
[14:34] <sethk> harry_, look for "control center" on the menu
[14:35] <Downix> sethk:  it's Lotus-like
[14:35] <harry_> just "current mixer"
[14:35] <sballard> ma guarda sta gente se si diverte!
[14:35] <Jucato> harry_: in KMix -> Configure KMix -> check the "Dock into panel" and "Enable system tray volume control" options
[14:35] <Jucato> !it | sballard
[14:35] <ubotu> sballard: Vai su #ubuntu-it o su #kubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie!
[14:36] <harry_> current mixer   then output input andswitches,,,  there iusnt any control center\
[14:36] <Jucato> harry_: Settings -> Configure KMix
 harry_: in KMix -> Configure KMix -> check the "Dock into panel" and "Enable system tray volume control" options
[14:37] <acemo> tomorrow kde4 rc1 is getting released.. still no kubuntu packages for kde4 beta4.. :S
[14:37] <sethk> harry_, you haven't found the control center.  It definitely is there.
[14:37] <harry_> I know your being patient and I thank you for that but what I am saying is there isnt any settings tab
[14:38] <emilsedgh> acemo: RC1 for tommorrow?
[14:38] <Jucato> harry_: it's not a settings tab. the Settings menu!
[14:38] <acemo> emilsedgh: yep
[14:38] <Jucato> harry_: File, Settings , Help.. at the very top. click on Settings -> Configure KMix
[14:38] <emilsedgh> acemo: Tag or Announce?
[14:38] <Jucato>  KDE4 Beta 4 packages delayed because of Personal Package Archive build issues (Bug: #163716)
[14:39] <acemo> emilsedgh: tag was 14 november, tmr is announce
[14:39] <emilsedgh> oh
[14:39] <harry_> when I open kmix all I see is Current mixer on top then output input and switches
[14:39] <Jucato> (it's not like we intentionally didn't want packages to be available)
[14:39] <emilsedgh> acemo: i cannot wait to see the announcement!
[14:39] <Jucato> harry_: there are no menus? File menu, Settings menu, Help menu?
[14:39] <acemo> Jucato: i understand that, hope will go better with rc1.. ima go read that bug =)
[14:40] <harry_> Not in Kmix
[14:40] <Jucato> harry_: press Ctrl+M in KMix
[14:40] <harry_> :)  Now there is
[14:40] <_sahin_w_> acemo: Meanwhile you can play with the KDE4 Live image for example.
[14:40] <WaltzingAlong> build it from svn. not that difficult
[14:41] <harry_> ??  it is checked??
[14:41] <_sahin_w_> WaltzingAlong: Hmmm. What's the way to build from svn?
[14:41] <WaltzingAlong> _sahin_w_: http://techbase.kde.org/Getting_Started/Build/Unstable_Version
[14:41] <harry_> now it is back!!  THANKS for the help
[14:41] <_sahin_w_> WaltzingAlong: Thanks! I will check it!
[14:41] <acemo> _sahin_w_: i know, but live cds are slow and wont give an impression of how the speed will be
[14:42] <acemo> _sahin_w_: will be trying out the live cds tho :)
[14:42] <_sahin_w_> acemo: Yes, and you simply can't test the compizite features for example.
[14:42] <_sahin_w_> acemo: I mean compozite.
[14:43] <harry_> Is there also a way to SEARCH the system from say the kmenu like,,  dare I say it... Windows?
[14:43] <WaltzingAlong> harry_: kfind ? and yes you can add that to the menu
[14:43] <acemo> _sahin_w_: composite aint that important.. its mostly just some fancy graphics
[14:43] <harry_> thx WaltzingAlong
[14:44] <_sahin_w_> acemo: Yes, you are right. However there are some handy compozite features.
[14:44] <Jucato> acemo: actually compositing does have some technical benefits beyond fancy graphics
[14:44] <_sahin_w_> acemo: Ok, not some much... but there are some.
[14:45] <Jucato> most important of which is the fixing of window drawing artifacts (like the "drag marks" when you move windows around)
[14:45] <WaltzingAlong> harry_: right mouse click on the panel (kmenu) then panel menu/configure panel; here to menus where you can add a few more to the kmenu (like find, bookmarks, and recent docs)
[14:45] <acemo> Jucato: i said mostly, i know that kwin4 will have some benefits beyond fancy graphics, but still mostly its just fancy graphics =)
[14:46] <Jucato> oh, and kwin4 is a kde4 game. :)
[14:46] <genii> Jucato: Yes, i agree that is a small but extremely annoying thing
[14:46] <Jucato> kwin4 != kwin 4... yeah it's strange..
[14:46] <genii> Jucato: (screen artefacts)
[14:46] <harry_> HELPFULL thx
[14:46]  * Jucato gives genii a mug of coffee before replacing artefacts with artifacts
[14:47] <_sahin_w_> I have two whishes for KDE4: a way to esaily distinguish between the active/inactive windows and a kmail which handle perfectly the html based emails.
[14:47] <_sahin_w_> html based email is it a must in my corporation. :-(
[14:48] <Jucato> _sahin_w_: first wish is currently being discussed extensively
[14:48] <genii> Jucato: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artifact_(archaeology) note it's not a typo :)
[14:48] <_sahin_w_> I mean i have to use html formatted emails. I hate it. :-(
[14:48] <Jucato> _sahin_w_: I presume you meant "distinguish" without using compositing
[14:48] <Jucato> genii: my apologies :)
[14:48] <_sahin_w_> Jucato: Exactly!
[14:48] <Jucato> no mt. dew for the whole day.. kinda getting to my brain...
[14:48]  * genii steals the Mountain Dew!
[14:49] <Jucato> er... make that 2 days...
[14:49] <Jucato> _sahin_w_: it's a problem with Oxygen... they're working on it already :)
[14:49] <Jucato> (it's not a kwin 4 issue)
[14:50] <_sahin_w_> The only thing what I don't like in KDE4 this active/inactive thing witout the composite effects.
[14:51] <harry_> how to force a quit of application like the cntl alt del in windows
[14:51] <Jucato> _sahin_w_: you can use a different windeco in the mean time :)
[14:51] <_sahin_w_> So there is hope for some kind of solution about this problem, which is maybe bother someone esle too.
[14:51] <Jucato> harry_: Ctrl+Esc
[14:52] <Jucato> _sahin_w_: it bothers the devs themselves, so don't worry :P
[14:52] <WaltzingAlong> harry_: ctrl+alt+esc then click on the window you wish to kill
[14:52] <reno> Salut!
[14:52] <reno> Il y a quelqu'un?
[14:52] <_sahin_w_> Jucato: But I like the new windeco, this is modern and nice and <insert something positive here>
[14:52] <mmorse757> Bon jour.
[14:52] <Jucato> WaltzingAlong: I was told that it has the effect of not really killing the process...
[14:52] <harry_> thx  I should have guessed it would be less work than the Bill Gates revenge.. Just accidentally started email and it seemed like forever to load
[14:52] <Jucato> WaltzingAlong: sometimes...
[14:52] <reno> J'ai un petit souci avec le son, qqn sait m'aider?
[14:53] <Jucato> !fr
[14:53] <ubotu> Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[14:53]  * Jucato wonders if there's a !be too...
[14:53] <WaltzingAlong> Jucato: may be true. guess it depends on the process to be killed or what it was doing when it froze.
[14:53] <harry_> Thank you all for the help goodday
[14:53] <WaltzingAlong> Jucato: otherwise kill -s KILL pid  i suppose
[14:54] <Jucato> (which is provided by Ctrl+Esc, along w/ other signals)
[14:55] <WaltzingAlong> Jucato: killing it through ksysguard?
[14:55] <WaltzingAlong> ah ok
[14:55] <Jucato> ksysguard --showprocesses actually (which is what Ctrl+Esc does)
[14:56] <WaltzingAlong> sure the process table listing in ksysguard
[14:57] <Jucato> yep
[14:57] <Jucato> the --showprocesses launches only the process list
[14:58]  * WaltzingAlong performs WaltzingAlong system updates
[14:58] <WaltzingAlong> ;D
[15:00] <lvjiabin> En ,wo want to  ask  is there any students here?
[15:00] <Lynoure> lvjiabin: try on #kubuntu-offtopic ?
[15:01] <Lynoure> lvjiabin: unless you want recommendation for notekeeping software, or something :)
[15:01] <lvjiabin> Oh!NO
[15:02] <lvjiabin> Thank you
[15:02] <lvjiabin> En ,I am  a new to  kubuntu
[15:04] <Lynoure> lvjiabin: Welcome, this is the Kubuntu support channel
[15:04] <WaltzingAlong> lvjiabin: welcome to the #kubuntu community.
[15:05] <ardchoille> If I compile a binary on two different computers, shouldn't that binary be the exact same size on both computers?
[15:05] <lvjiabin> Oh ！ I was just wondering if the binary would be the exact same on both boxes
[15:07] <lvjiabin> Lynoure ,can you tell me some software about  electronic  egineer
