[07:48] <charlie5> n8k99: i'm hoping there are tools that help get rid of the hiss ... (this is new territory for charlie ;)
[07:48] <K-Ryan> Still broken
[07:48] <intelikey> don't forget to update the database when you change the sources.list
[07:48] <K-Ryan> Hmm?
[07:48] <n8k99> charlie5: Effects > Noise Reduction
[07:48] <charlie5> n8k99: a usb mike shouldn;t pick up fan noise ... is that right ?
[07:48] <manchicken> np
[07:49] <n8k99> charlie5: just don't go crazy or you'll sound like a piece of tinfoil
[07:49] <K-Ryan> i ran the sudo apt-get update thing
[07:49] <K-Ryan> E: Type 'restricted' is not known on line 15 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list
[07:49] <phobiac> The sudo apt-get update
[07:49] <n8k99> yes it will, a mic is a mike no matter where you plug it in
[07:49] <charlie5> n8k99: lol ... i already sound like a piece of tinfoil ;)
[07:50] <n8k99> heh
[07:50] <charlie5> n8k99: ah, i see ... i was only guessing about the fan noise
[07:50] <intelikey> line 15 ?    in  a 12  line file ?
[07:50] <K-Ryan> Iunno
[07:50] <K-Ryan> Checking the file...
[07:50] <Cagarro> lindvd comes with mandriva, is it possible to get it from ubuntu reps ?
[07:51] <n8k99> charlie5:microphones generally are much more sensitie than the human ear, or at least than the distracted brain thinks the ear is
[07:51] <K-Ryan> Yeah, still that restricted error
[07:53] <jambo76> huomenta kaikille
[07:53] <n8k99> time to rest, good night all
[07:54] <intelikey> you are not saving the file correctly or something.   line 15   if you copied and pasted that raw text would be commented out    15:#deb-src http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu dapper-backports   also  dpkg should only be counting lines with text.....  i think.
[07:54] <K-Ryan> dont know, i'll count them
[07:54] <K-Ryan> yeah I only have 12 deb lines
[07:55] <K-Ryan> well 11 deb lines, the top one is a # /etc/apt/sources.list
[07:55] <intelikey> 12 ?    should be 6
[07:55] <K-Ryan> 6 are enabled or uncommented
[07:55] <K-Ryan> Whatever it's called
[07:55] <K-Ryan> When I select the bottom line though
[07:56] <K-Ryan> Kate labels it as 19
[07:56] <intelikey> ooops i was wrong about that numbering sceema  dpkg does count blank lines...
[07:56] <K-Ryan> Oh, I see a problem
[07:56] <K-Ryan> I fixed my adept
[07:56] <K-Ryan> Woohoo!

[08:01] <cpk1> read the repository link then
[08:02] <K-Ryan> I'm okay for now
[08:03] <K-Ryan> I'll figure something out for time wasting
[08:04] <cpk1> K-Ryan: what is your problem exactly?
[08:05] <K-Ryan> There is no exact problem
[08:05] <K-Ryan> I'm looking to waste a few minutes before going to bed
[08:05] <K-Ryan> By waste I mean play a game, not what I'm doing now
[08:06] <K-Ryan> So I'm going back to trying to download Cube 2

[08:07] <K-Ryan> I'm giving up on that
[08:08] <K-Ryan> Until I install Kubuntu anyway
[08:08] <K-Ryan> Just going to try installing this
[08:08] <K-Ryan> If it works I'll play for a few min and see how it compares to the Windows version
[08:08] <K-Ryan> Otherwise I'm off to bed

[08:13] <cpk1> can you install stuff when you are running off the livecd?
[08:13] <intelikey> yes
[08:13] <cpk1> i've never tried/needed/wanted to
[08:14] <intelikey> you can over load the ram that way tho
[08:14] <cpk1> k thats what i thought
[08:14] <stdin> intelikey: I'm making an interactive script to make it easier for, lets say "less advanced" users, to enable *verse. what you think ? http://www.pastebin.ca/314236
[08:15] <intelikey> stdin hehhe i think the line i posted ^  but i'll look at yours.
[08:15] <cpk1> stdin: have you looked at the repo link from ubotu though? the gui is very straight forward and easy =\
[08:15] <stdin> intelikey: like I said "interactive" :)
[08:15] <intelikey> lol
[08:15] <stdin> cpk1: the script just asks a few yes/no questions
[08:16] <stdin> ant it's only 1st draft, I could make it GUI too
[08:16] <stdin> s/ant/and/
[08:17] <cpk1> i'm not saying that yours not being a gui is bad, but one would think the current method doesnt really need improvement =P
[08:19] <stdin> cpk1: I have had, on more than 1 occasion, sent people to the link to enable a repo, and have them come back to say "I don't understand", not that the guide isn't easy, just that some people want a "quick fix" for it
[08:19] <intelikey> stdin first rattel out of the box  EOF echo -n "Enter your county code to use for and apt mirror. eg: gb or fr : "  EOF  they are going to say   huh ?  </mouth expressions>
[08:20] <stdin> intelikey: if they don't it defaults to the main one, but like I said, it's a 1st draft :)
[08:22] <binks> stdin i think anything that makes lie easier is a great idea go for it
[08:22] <binks> *life
[08:23] <stdin> I've tested the script a bit over the last day or so, and it works quite well, it also makes a backup of the sources.list so all changes are reversable
[08:23] <Rob-West> http://www.abclinuxu.cz/images/clanky/kratky/kde4-plasma-2.png
[08:23] <stdin> it also asks "do you want to continue" just to be sure :)
[08:24] <binks> what you writitng it in
[08:24] <stdin> binks: bash :)
[08:24] <binks> i just got up can you tell
[08:24] <stdin> binks: I just woke up too (well about an hour ago)
[08:24] <binks> and the gui part
[08:25] <stdin> binks: there is a nice little app called "kdialog" that can do it quite well
[08:25] <lascar> who has knowledge of getting ntfs-3g to work?
[08:25] <stdin> lascar: there is a guide on the help pages
[08:26] <lascar> i know
[08:26] <lascar> i've checked it
[08:27] <binks> i used zenity on the tovidwiz thats nice an easy too
[08:27] <binks> im learning pyqt at themoment so i can really go to town on a new tovid gui
[08:27] <stdin> binks: when I put the GUI bit in, it will check which you have zenity or kdialog and use one
[08:28] <binks> nice
[08:28] <J-_> Has anyone had kububtu run a lot smoother than Gnome?
[08:29] <intelikey> stdin yes   i might sujest parsing the existing sources.list for that info  for Q in <full list of.. au us gb uk nl jp...> ;do grep -m1 'archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu' | grep "/$Q." && NL=$Q ;done     for example   and of course that would need a dubble check that NL didn't endup the full list.    but you can do that anyway you like.      other than that   the removed comments in the end result is the only thing that catches my
[08:30] <J-_> Let me reword that, has anyone had kububtu run a lot smoother than Ubuntu on their computer? heh
[08:30] <intelikey> you could change my sujestion and make it only read the file one time    that would shorten the process time and disk activity.
[08:30] <stdin> intelikey: well I can always add the comments, and I was thinking of the vast way to check the the local code was valid, but all input is welcome :)
[08:30] <stdin> *best not vast :P
[08:30] <ucpalx> kubuntu seems to run smoother
[08:31] <jambo76> have anyone installed webmin on kubuntu?
[08:31] <binks> im still new to nix programming so big learning curve :)
[08:32] <J-_> Yeah, I just installed kubuntu through the repos, and me likey. I might uninstall Ubuntu, and reinstall from repos and see if it runs smoother than kubuntu because in reality shouldn't gnome run smoother than kubuntu? Kubuntu is a lot heavier of a windows manager, no?
[08:32] <intelikey> stdin yeah i thought of the LANG setting but that really has nothing to do with region  but rather education/background    so the origenal sources.list is the place to parse out that info    also one could parse it  and then just ask do you wish to continue using the $NL mirror ?
[08:33] <stdin> intelikey: yeah, that sounds good
[08:34] <monsterb_> stdin, What project are you working on? I missed that part. :)
[08:34] <intelikey> then if they say no you can sub let an option to set a mirror.     also a list to choose from is normally the best idea
[08:35] <J-_> is Logo a good language to learn? What is it used for, any up-to-date programming/integration?
[08:35] <stdin> monsterb_: just a shell script to enable universe/multiverse automatically, take a look http://www.pastebin.ca/314236
[08:35] <stdin> intelikey: yeah, but do you happen to know where a full list of local mirrors is?
[08:36] <madmike> wow I'm drunk go meeee
[08:36] <tulga> I want add user only 1 line (without password prompt). is it possible?
[08:36] <jambo76> i got it to work'
[08:37] <monsterb_> stdin, ok thx
[08:38] <stdin> tulga: I don't understand, can you explain?
[08:38] <tulga> stdin: I can run shell script like newusers.sh name password...
[08:38] <intelikey> stdin parse with this.    NL=`grep -m1 -oe /[a-z] [a-z] . /etc/apt/sources.list | cut -c2-3`
[08:39] <tulga> howto write shell script like that?
[08:39] <intelikey> stdin actually    NL=`grep -m1 -oe /[a-z] [a-z] . /etc/apt/sources.list | cut -c2-4`
[08:39] <tulga> my application cannot give password to system when system asking password
[08:39] <tulga> application can run one line command
[08:40] <tulga> stdin: do you understand me?
[08:40] <intelikey> then test for the third char to be .
[08:40] <intelikey> if it is it's a good mirror if not   no.
[08:42] <stdin> intelikey: with that command on my sources.list I get "gb. <newline> ubu"
[08:43] <intelikey> hmmm let me check...
[08:44] <tulga> stdin: about my problem?
[08:44] <stdin> tulga: not sure if you can do that, as you'd need to use "adduser" to add a user, and it calls other apps to encrypt the password, and the script would have to be run as root anyway
[08:44] <stdin> tulga: tho you can make a user without a password, then add one later
[08:45] <tulga> stdin: I have root access
[08:46] <tulga> I need only pipe command to add user
[08:47] <tulga> I can run command only. I cannot give password to server when server prompting password
[08:47] <tulga> I want add user with password without any prompt
[08:47] <stdin> tulga: but you still can't pass the password to adduser in a script, it needs to be interactive, or set to no password
[08:47] <tulga> I'm adding user from perl
[08:48] <tulga> then perl don't know now asking password or not
[08:48] <tulga> it is my big problem
[08:48] <Cagarro> what is katapult ?
[08:58] <monsterb_> !hearts
[08:58] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about hearts - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:59] <J-_> holy netsplit batman.
[09:00] <intelikey> stdin there is no way to make grep work with .  so i had to do some fancy foot work there.
[09:00] <intelikey> NL=`grep -m1 -oe 'http://[a-z] [a-z] .' /etc/apt/sources.list | cut -c8-10 | tr '.' '+' | grep -e '+' | tr '+' '.'`
[09:00] <intelikey> i know it's long but it works.
[09:03] <the-erm> I goofed up, and uninstalled kcontrol's service manager.  Anyone know what package I need to install to get it to work again?
[09:03] <brett__> what is the best way to make a image a smaller size?
[09:04] <intelikey> bzip2 ?
[09:04] <the-erm> I think convert will do it brett__ ... imagemagik
[09:05] <brett__> i dont want to zip it
[09:05] <brett__> just shrink it for myspace
[09:05] <lascar> hence convert
[09:05] <the-erm> You mean HxW
[09:05] <brett__> thanks the-erm
[09:05] <brett__> hxw or pixels per inch
[09:05] <the-erm> Convert should even do % iirc
[09:06] <brett__> cool i am about to install it
[09:06] <the-erm> I've always used php's gd library to do resize images, but that's mostly because I do it on a web page :)
[09:07] <intelikey> stdin
[09:08] <brett__> the-erm: i dont see Convert in adept
[09:08] <stdin> intelikey: Just figuring out a way to add that without rewriting too much :P

[09:13] <intelikey> rip  decript     ?
[09:14] <stdin> makuseru: they use different encryption methods, you could use dd I guess
[09:14] <intelikey> makuseru get all your warez at <IP_ADDRESS>
[09:14] <makuseru> dd?
[09:14] <intelikey> dd
[09:14] <intelikey> DD
[09:14] <makuseru> whats thatt
[09:15] <stdin> makuseru: it's a console command, read "man dd" in konsole
[09:15] <intelikey> dd if=/dev/stdin of=/dev/stderr
[09:15] <ucpalx> whaha
[09:15] <stdin> I can't be copied :P
[09:16] <makuseru> and intelikey: i dont wanna get um from myself
[09:16] <lascar> god I'd do anything to get ntfs and kubuntu to cooperate...
[09:16] <stdin> could work like: dd if=/dev/hdc of=~/mygame.iso
[09:17] <intelikey> makuseru do you want to get ubuntu suied out of existance ?     is that the plan ?
[09:17] <intelikey> warez is a good way to do it.
[09:17] <makuseru> im trying to play a game, i own, on my own computer
[09:17] <intelikey> umm hmmm

[09:20] <intelikey> makuseru and you have to rip it why exactly     oh and about decripting it, why do that if you own that copy ?
[09:20] <makuseru> because im trying to get a gamecube emulator to work
[09:21] <makuseru> and i need a game to try and get the thing to work
[09:21] <intelikey> 3g seem more tolerable binks

[09:39] <stdin> how did you install 1.4.2 ?
[09:40] <leiar> It came with the distribution
[09:40] <monsterb_> leiar, what distro?
[09:40] <leiar> my dist is kubuntu dapper 6.0
[09:40] <stdin> you should just be able to update the alternatives of java to point to he right version
[09:41] <stdin> sudo update-alternatives --config java
[09:41] <stdin> there is an ubuntu package for java 1.5 too
[09:42] <leiar> stdin: thank's a lot :-)
[09:43] <stdin> no problem :)

[09:56] <leiar> stdin: I've done that. But it lokks like the mplayerplug-in goes into a loop while trying to play net-tv. Does this have anything with permissions to do?
[09:57] <stdin> leiar: got a URL so I can look?
[10:00] <magnus_> NEWBIE question: I run kubuntru and it works great. I will now install it on my secound PC what is the correct way to get all the goodies? 1. Install "standard" kubuntu 2. Install EasyUbuntu  Question Anything more to get ha good base level?
[10:02] <stdin> don't, I repeat, DON'T, use easyubuntu or automatix, they can leave your system in an unusable state if you try and upgrade to a newer version of kubuntu
[10:04] <Hawai`i> what would you suggest other than the automatix?
[10:04] <Hawai`i> <--newb also
[10:04] <stdin> install things the proper way, EasyUbuntu/Automatix are nither recommended or supported
[10:04] <leiar> I'd really like to get net-TV working. I've installed mplayer and the plugin. When opening a TV-programme in the browser, mplayer starts loading, and it ends up in a loop. Anybody experienced anything similar?
[10:05] <stdin> the ubuntu help pages tell you haw to get everything you want/need
[10:05] <stdin> magnus_ , Hawai`i : read this page https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats
[10:06] <Hawai`i> nod nod.. i Have gone over that.. just one friend was telling me about the automatix... and well.. not knowing ne better.. I did it.. seems everything is working okies
[10:07] <Hawai`i> but I can see where you come from bout upgraded version of Kub
[10:07] <stdin> Hawai`i: you system may work fine now, but you may have some issues upgrading
[10:07] <stdin> !automatix
[10:07] <ubotu> automatix is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe

[10:10] <[StingRay] > Hi, stdin :)
[10:10] <stdin> hey [StingRay]  :)
[10:12] <stdin> [StingRay] : do you know much about bash scripting?
[10:13] <[StingRay] > stdin, not much, my best script is an kubuntu FreeNX terminal server install , but it nothing special
[10:14] <[StingRay] > stdin, I will be glad to be of service ;)
[10:15] <[StingRay] > there is a good #bash cahnnel, stdin. The guys are real pro scripters.
[10:15] <stdin> [StingRay] : was just asking because I want some input on a script I'm putting together http://www.pastebin.ca/315039
[10:15] <stdin> [StingRay] : I'm pretty good at bash, just want some fresh eyes :)
[10:16] <boss_78> join #supertux
[10:20] <[StingRay] > stdin, You definitely have to ask someone from #bash ;). I have not used awk and tr.
[10:20] <stdin> [StingRay] : the script works fine, just wanted to know how it could be better, it's only a 2nd draft :)
[10:22] <[StingRay] > stdin, are you familiar with the extensions of X?
[10:22] <stdin> [StingRay] : a couple, but I'm no expert
[10:23] <[StingRay] > stdin, vnc is playing bad trick on me and wine.
[10:23] <leiar> ./bye
[10:23] <magnus_> newbie how to get a list of channels available...
[10:23] <stdin> [StingRay] : what errors ?
[10:23] <[StingRay] > stdin, the reason is that tightvnc uses Xvnc and Xvnc is loading only 7 extensions out of 27...
[10:23] <leiar> bye
[10:23] <[StingRay] > "x11drv_main.c: X11DRV_CritSection"
[10:23] <Flosoft> hey
[10:23] <stdin> magnus_: you in konversation ?
[10:23] <[StingRay] > randomly, stdin this is the problem...
[10:24] <Flosoft> I have got a problem connecting to my wireless
[10:24] <Flosoft> someone else has already posted a good description on the ubuntuforums .... http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=284745
[10:24] <[StingRay] > stdin, this is the complete error: err:ntdll:RtlpWaitForCriticalSection section 0x7f114300 "x11drv_main.c: X11DRV_CritSection"
[10:24] <leiar> how do I leave the channel. I thought it was /bye
[10:24] <leiar> \bye
[10:24] <leiar> bye
[10:24] <stdin> leiar: /part
[10:25] <stdin> [StingRay] : WAY to complex for my tiny brain there
[10:26] <[StingRay] > stdin, ;) the "good" news is that noone responded on winehq too
[10:27] <stdin> [StingRay] : maybe #xorg ?
[10:27] <[StingRay] > stdin, I have to switch back to FreeNX and the nightmare of session resuming.
[10:27] <stdin> [StingRay] : I'm sure you can disable it if you don't want it, server side
[10:28] <[StingRay] > stdin, Xvnc is causing the problems...Xorg is already 7.0 and Xvnc is using extensions from 3.3 afaik
[10:28] <stdin> magnus_: are you using konversation, and want a channel list?
[10:29] <stdin> [StingRay] : then use a more up-to-date vnc server, i guess
[10:29] <[StingRay] > stdin, I am testing currently vnc4server. which is using more extensions, but its compression is very bandwith hungry.
[10:31] <stdin> [StingRay] : that's the only problem with vnc, you need the bandwidth, that's why I used NX a while ago, it had much better compression
[10:31] <[StingRay] > I will try to reduce it as much as possible, but tightvnc is could hardly reach 10 kB. vnc4server hardly goes below 20 kB
[10:31] <stdin> [StingRay] : is that with 1024x768 ?
[10:32] <stdin> or 800.600 ?
[10:32] <[StingRay] > I know stdin, but FreeNX is problematic as it comes to session resuming.
[10:32] <[StingRay] > yes, stdin 1024x768, though 800x600 will do the work too.
[10:33] <klaus3> hi
[10:33] <stdin> 800x600 should reduce the banwidth you need, at least a bit
[10:33] <[StingRay] > stdin, I am running an wine application which is connected to a firebird database. If the session fails and cannote be resumed you have an opened handle to the firebird, which is risky...
[10:33] <stdin> hmm, yeah
[10:39] <paranoid__> hi, anyone knows a way to assign a samba share to a fix directory ?
[10:39] <stdin> paranoid__: you mean mount a samba share?
[10:39] <paranoid__> yep
[10:40] <stdin> paranoid__: yeah, all you need to do is install "smbfs", then you can mount it
[10:41] <paranoid__> stdin: thx, will try
[10:42] <lostbyte> !ipv6
[10:42] <ubotu> To disable ipv6 read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WebBrowsingSlowIPv6IPv4
[10:42] <lostbyte> !ipv6-off
[10:42] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ipv6-off - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:42] <stdin> paranoid__: you can mount it like "mount -t cifs //Server.IP.Address/ShareName /place/to/mount/to -o user=username,password=password
[10:43] <stdin> paranoid__: or there is also a GUI called "smb4k"
[10:45] <lostbyte> Is ipv6 enabled by default on Edgy ?

[11:28] <mineur> hi
[11:28] <stdin> hey
[11:28] <eMaX_> I just wanted to install an update for wpasupplicant through the update manager. I tells me "old post-removal script was terminated with error status 10" and then fails to install the new package. Is anyone having a similar problem?
[11:29] <stdin> try it in konsole, you may get a better error message "sudo apt-get upgrade"
[11:29] <paranoid__> anyone knows why i can't see anything in / with konqueror and ls -al takes VERY long to show the content
[11:30] <eMaX_> same error

[11:36] <stdin> paranoid__: can you post the output of "ls -Al /" to pastebin please ?
[11:37] <paranoid__> mmh, the line with media says : ?----? ? ? ?        ? media
[11:37] <eMaX_> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/1418/
[11:38] <stdin> paranoid__: you can try removing the media dir, and re creating it
[11:39] <paranoid__> tried it but doesn't work ... can cd into --- but doing ls there results in I/O Error
[11:39] <stdin> eMaX_: that package isn't from ubuntu, so I don't know what's wrong with it
[11:39] <eMaX_> why isn't that from ubuntu ?
[11:39] <stdin> paranoid__: so you can't do "sudo rm /media" ?
[11:40] <paranoid__> no :(
[11:40] <stdin> paranoid__: dose it give an error?
[11:41] <stdin> eMaX_: it seems to be from the 3v1n0 repository, check your sources.list for non official repositories
[11:41] <paranoid__> nevermind, did a reboot and looks good now ... don't know what happened there

[11:44] <eMaX_> how can I force a removal? apt-get remove wpasupplicant doesn't work either
[11:44] <bene__> hi
[11:44] <fdoving> eMaX_: what holds it back?
[11:44] <stdin> eMaX_: do you need the package ?
[11:44] <eMaX_> how can I force a removal? apt-get remove wpasupplicant doesn't work either
[11:44] <eMaX_> well apparently not
[11:46] <eMaX_> deinstalling also deinstalled knetworkmanager network-manager network-manager-gnome ubuntu-minimal  according to the command line output but then failed uninstalling wpasupplicant

[11:47] <stdin> :)
[11:47] <paranoid__> stdin: k, thx ... btw, isn't mplayer in apt-get ??
[11:47] <eMaX_> that's why I was asking for a "forced" removal
[11:47] <stdin> paranoid__: it's in multiverse
[11:47] <eMaX_> but I don't see anything like --force in man apt-get
[11:48] <stdin> eMaX_: why do you have the non official repository in your sources.list ?
[11:48] <paranoid__> stdin: what's multiverse ... sorry, i'm new to ubuntu ... installed it yesterday
[11:49] <stdin> !multiverse | paranoid__
[11:49] <ubotu> paranoid__: The packages in Kubuntu are divided into various sections. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Kubuntu
[11:49] <stdin> paranoid__: that will tell you how to enable it
[11:50] <paranoid__> k, thx ;)
[11:52] <eMaX_> stdin anyway. do you know of a method to force removal of a package?
[11:52] <stdin> eMaX_: yes, but it would be easier just to remove the other repository from the sources
[11:53] <Flosoft> hey
[11:53] <Flosoft> I have got a problem with my wifi card

[12:29] <mineur> lol hey I used to like it... but it's been years :)
[12:29] <mineur> yeha ok I'm using Konversation now
[12:30] <mineur> I should have had guessed... Kubuntu :p
[12:32] <MetProphet> <-- -
[12:40] <bartist> hello !!
[12:40] <stdin> hi
[12:40] <bartist> i've lost my "File, Edit, View ..." bar in konqueror
[12:40] <bartist> and i cant manage to put it back
[12:40] <bartist> any ideA?
[12:40] <stdin> bartist: try pressing "Ctrl-M"
[12:41] <YumeNoEien> hello
[12:41] <stdin> hi YumeNoEien
[12:41] <bartist> done, thanx stdin!
[12:41] <stdin> bartist: no problem :)
[12:42] <YumeNoEien> i have a problem again, im still trying to get my laptop on the internet. And someone mentioned that it could be a common problem that firefox would fix
[12:42] <YumeNoEien> i looked up how to install FF on linux
[12:42] <YumeNoEien> but it only tells me to unpack
[12:42] <YumeNoEien> the tar file
[12:43] <stdin> YumeNoEien: you use Adept to install it
[12:43] <mineur> is there a system wide setting for browser preference??
[12:43] <YumeNoEien> k
[12:43] <YumeNoEien> thanks
[12:43] <mineur> I want to use opera in stead of conquerer
[12:44] <Lynoure> mineur: What's stopping you?
[12:44] <stdin> mineur: for KDE: Kmenu -> System Settings -> Default Applications
[12:44] <mineur> some applications opening konquerre when I click a link :)
[12:44] <Lynoure> Even though there is a security bug in Opera still unfixed :(
[12:45] <bartist> i have another problem
[12:45] <stdin> mineur: system wide: sudo update-alternatives --config x-www-browser
[12:45] <bartist> my sound is messed up
[12:45] <stdin> !sound
[12:45] <ubotu> If you're having problems with sound, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DebuggingSoundProblems and http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin
[12:46] <mineur> kde is system-wide enough for me :)
[12:46] <mineur> thanx :)
[12:46] <stdin> :)
[12:47] <Lynoure> YumeNoEien: But if your laptop cannot connect to the internet at all (I assume then you are not on irc from it), FF is not going to fix that as it is just a web browser.
[12:48] <bartist> so, my sound is messed up, and i've read from there: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=205449
[12:49] <bartist> that this: sudo apt-get --purge remove linux-sound-base alsa-base alsa-utils
[12:49] <bartist> followed by that: sudo apt-get install linux-sound-base alsa-base alsa-utils
[12:49] <bartist> should fix it
[12:49] <YumeNoEien> @lynource argh thats not what i wanted to hear :P
[12:49] <bartist> and it did
[12:49] <bartist> until sound server crashed
[12:50] <YumeNoEien> @lynource heres the advice i got, its not just changing the browser
[12:50] <YumeNoEien> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2004813#post2004813
[12:50] <Lynoure> YumeNoEien: But, if you describe the problem, maybe a real solution can be found.
[12:51] <YumeNoEien> Well i want to ceonnect my laptop to the internet using an ethernet card. The modem company says its OS independant and should work
[12:51] <YumeNoEien> on linux aswell
[12:51] <Lynoure> YumeNoEien: It seems the answer you got is not directly related to your question. :)
[12:51] <YumeNoEien> but i dont know how to configure it into getting online
[12:51] <YumeNoEien> argh -.-
[12:51] <Lynoure> YumeNoEien: You used it with MS windows before?
[12:51] <YumeNoEien> yeah
[12:52] <YumeNoEien> in fact its pretty much windows orientated
[12:52] <YumeNoEien> but i kicked windows out and put kubuntu on it
[12:52] <stdin> YumeNoEien: you just need to set it to use DHCP in the nsetowk settings, in System Settings, ignore that "handy" guy
[12:53] <YumeNoEien> lol
[12:53] <YumeNoEien> getting to it right now
[12:54] <YumeNoEien> okay the network interface is on Aotomatic - DHCP
[12:55] <YumeNoEien> interface is enable
[12:55] <YumeNoEien> do i do anything with the other tabs in network settings?
[12:55] <stdin> YumeNoEien: no, you should now have internet
[12:56] <Lynoure> I usually do things on command line... Cannot even remember what tabs there is :)
[12:56] <YumeNoEien> k
[12:56] <YumeNoEien> reloading network, might take a few secs
[12:57] <YumeNoEien> :(
[12:58] <YumeNoEien> i tried google and i got 'Unknown host www.google.com'
[12:58] <Lynoure> YumeNoEien: Did you use "Optain network settings automatically" in Windows? If not, it might be your modem is not configured to do dhcp
[12:59] <YumeNoEien> !
[12:59] <YumeNoEien> good question,..
[12:59] <YumeNoEien> i configured it from my desktop, so i can still check how its configured
[12:59] <Lynoure> Good :)
[01:03] <cyrille_> I have a question of noob
[01:03] <YumeNoEien> join the club
[01:03] <YumeNoEien> :)
[01:03] <Lynoure> cyrille_: ask away?
[01:04] <Christoph> Hi guys, I got one question: Does anyone of you know where I can get an interactive C Compiler for Kubuntu??
[01:05] <stdin> KDevelop maybe
[01:05] <stdin> !kdevelop
[01:05] <ubotu> kdevelop: An IDE for Unix/X11. In component universe, is optional. Version 4:3.3.4-1ubuntu2 (edgy), package size 7894 kB, installed size 24892 kB
[01:05] <adaptr> Christoph: do you mean a development environment ? an "interactive C compiler" sounds like a training tool.. not sure such a thing exists
[01:06] <boss78> I have a graphic boards wich doesn't want to function at 100 per cent
[01:06] <Christoph> adaptr: Yes it's basically an IDE for programming LEGO robots
[01:06] <Christoph> KDevelop dosn't give me anything
[01:06] <Christoph> doesn't
[01:06] <Christoph> no project templates
[01:07] <adaptr> Christoph: C is a compiled language.. an interactive compiler doesn't make much sense
[01:07] <stdin> adaptr: I think he means an IDE for C/C++
[01:07] <adaptr> stdin: doesn't sound like it, see above
[01:08] <stdin> boss78: any other information you want to give ?
[01:08] <Christoph> no an IDE/Compiler for Interactive C. Interactive C is somewhat like C
[01:08] <ScarFreewill> !sip
[01:08] <ubotu> sip: Python/C++ bindings generator. In component universe, is optional. Version 3.10.2-1.1ubuntu1 (edgy), package size 74 kB, installed size 208 kB
[01:08] <ScarFreewill> does kde have a sip app?
[01:09] <dennis_> Is anybody who speaks german here ?
[01:09] <YumeNoEien> Lynoure i tried to see if the setting is set to "Optain network settings automatically" in windows, but couldnt find it
[01:09] <stdin> Christoph: you mean like http://www.botball.org/educational-resources/ic.php ?

[01:10] <dennis_> thx
[01:10] <stdin> ScarFreewill: you mean VoIP ?
[01:10] <ScarFreewill> stdin: yes
[01:11] <ScarFreewill> stdin: well can some one phone me from talkanot
[01:11] <Christoph> stdin: precisly
[01:11] <Lynoure> YumeNoEien: That setting is under Networks>settings>tcp/ip and something, but if you can access the modem configuration, it is just called dhcp somewhere there.
[01:11] <YumeNoEien> k
[01:11] <ScarFreewill> *talkonaut
[01:12] <stdin> !kphone
[01:12] <ScarFreewill> does kopete support it?
[01:12] <ubotu> kphone: Voice over IP (VoIP) phone application. In component universe, is optional. Version 1:4.2-6 (edgy), package size 406 kB, installed size 1260 kB
[01:12] <YumeNoEien> found it
[01:13] <YumeNoEien> it is set on DHCP Server
[01:13] <YumeNoEien> instead of Auto DHCP
[01:13] <stdin> ScarFreewill: yeah, there are a few different choices, kphone seems good
[01:13] <YumeNoEien> so i set it to Auto DHCP right?
[01:13] <ScarFreewill> stdin: thx
[01:14] <stdin> :)
[01:15] <ScarFreewill> stdin: do you know of any good j2me apps that works with google services?
[01:15] <Lynoure> YumeNoEien: Sound probable, yes, I cannot be 100% sure without checking what they mean by Auto
[01:16] <stdin> ScarFreewill: not off the top of my head, you can always google for it
[01:16] <YumeNoEien> il go for trial and error
[01:16] <YumeNoEien> gonna try it right now
[01:16] <YumeNoEien> no need
[01:16] <YumeNoEien> to reboot linux right?
[01:16] <ScarFreewill> stdin: i look all over sf.net and google and jabber.org/clients
[01:16] <Lynoure> YumeNoEien: no, but you might want to do  sudo dhclient
[01:17] <ScarFreewill> stdin: best one i found was talkonaut but its not opensouced
[01:17] <Lynoure> YumeNoEien: the result of that will tell a lot of interesting things in any case
[01:17] <yelonek> hi, I mounted iso image to /media
[01:17] <YumeNoEien> cool, ill put it in the terminal right now
[01:17] <yelonek> how do i unmount this thing ?
[01:17] <stdin> ScarFreewill: I know kopete works with googles IM, don't know about google VoIP, tho I think google use SIP??
[01:17] <yelonek> i tried sudo umount /media
[01:17] <yelonek> but it says 'device is busy'
[01:18] <stdin> yelonek: where exactly did you mount it to?
[01:18] <yelonek> exactly to /media
[01:18] <stdin> yelonek: type "mount" to check
[01:18] <stdin> yelonek: you should have used a sub directory, but ok
[01:18] <yelonek> .iso on /media type iso9660 (rw,loop=/dev/loop0)
[01:19] <yelonek> stdin: now i know ;)
[01:19] <stdin> yelonek: have you got any apps open that could be using it, eg Konqueror ?
[01:19] <yelonek> there was Konq, but i closed it
[01:19] <yelonek> and tried again
[01:20] <swami> try umount -a and then mount -a
[01:20] <Lynoure> YumeNoEien: I would normally ask you to cut and paste it to pastebin if it does not work, but without network that's a bit too much work for you
[01:20] <yelonek> swami: what does it mean ?
[01:20] <stdin> yelonek: dose "lsof|grep /media" show anything ?
[01:21] <stdin> yelonek: swamis suggestion won't help you
[01:21] <ScarFreewill> stdin: http://www.gtalk2voip.com/
[01:21] <YumeNoEien> aww man Lynource
[01:21] <YumeNoEien> its no problem
[01:22] <swami> that he unmount everything but the /boot and then mounts everything that is in fstab
[01:22] <Lynoure> I use "lsof|grep /media" startlingly often with my usb disk. :)
[01:22] <YumeNoEien> but im not the quickest typer :P
[01:22] <swami> "he = OS"
[01:22] <yelonek> stdin: it shows 5 entries
[01:22] <stdin> swami: he's mounted a iso, it's not in fstab
[01:22] <Lynoure> YumeNoEien: but giving some idea of what it said could help, no need to type it all
[01:22] <galathalion> anyone using last.fm?
[01:22] <Lynoure> galathalion: yes
[01:22] <yelonek> but first it showed:
[01:22] <yelonek> lsof: WARNING: can't stat() iso9660 file system /media/cdrom0
[01:22] <yelonek>       Output information may be incomplete.
[01:22] <YumeNoEien> Listening on LPF/eth0/00:0fb0:90:el:b7
[01:23] <Lynoure> galathalion: Amarok supports it nicely
[01:23] <YumeNoEien> oh
[01:23] <stdin> yelonek: what are the names in the far left ?
[01:23] <YumeNoEien> sending on the same place its listening
[01:23] <yelonek> Konqueror, bash, lsof, grep, lsof
[01:23] <Lynoure> YumeNoEien: it's asking on IPv6 instead of IPv4
[01:23] <galathalion> Lynoure: what am i supposed to do? Ive downloaded it.. now what?
[01:23] <yelonek> but no Konqueror is working
[01:23] <YumeNoEien> DHCPDiscover to <IP_ADDRESS> on port 67 several times
[01:24] <YumeNoEien> it should be on IPv4?
[01:24] <stdin> yelonek: you see the number to the right of konqueror?
[01:24] <Lynoure> oh, sorry, I misread
[01:24] <bartist> hello again
[01:24] <bartist> thanx for the advises
[01:24] <bartist> everything is working!
[01:24] <Lynoure> YumeNoEien: no, seems fine. But if it is not getting an answer, something is not right...
[01:24] <yelonek> stdin: it's PID i guess ?
[01:24] <YumeNoEien> and there were no DHCPOFFERS received
[01:25] <bartist> i'm downloading stuff with amule, but I dont know where the files are downloaded
[01:25] <YumeNoEien> also no working leases in persistent database
[01:25] <stdin> yelonek: yes, so we're going to kill that process with "kill PID" (where PID is the number)
[01:25] <yelonek> stdin: kill it with KDE process manager ?
[01:25] <bartist> and I also would amule to understand that my default player is kaffein
[01:26] <stdin> bartist: that should be in the amule settings somewhere
[01:27] <bartist> I know stdin, but i dont know where
[01:27] <Lynoure> YumeNoEien: Does you modem keep a log of dhcp requests?
[01:27] <yelonek> stdin: thank you, I made it
[01:27] <YumeNoEien> i think i saw something like that
[01:27] <stdin> yelonek: did it unmount now?
[01:27] <YumeNoEien> ill look it up
[01:27] <stdin> bartist: I don't use amule, so I don't know :)
[01:27] <yelonek> stdin: yes
[01:28] <ubuntu__> hello
[01:28] <stdin> yango: great, it's normally konqueror that's the problem in that circumstance :)
[01:28] <Lynoure> YumeNoEien: I have a splitting headache and the pharmacy will close soon, so I'll have to go in about 10min :(
[01:29] <YumeNoEien> its okay
[01:29] <YumeNoEien> go get well :)
[01:29] <YumeNoEien> the laptop has no real priority or rush
[01:29] <YumeNoEien> ^
[01:29] <Xera> Alarm: probably best to ask in here xD
[01:30] <Alarm> eehehe ok ;0
[01:31] <Lynoure> YumeNoEien: one thing you could do if the dhcp is giving you trouble is to check what the ip of the modem is, and set the laptop to have static ip in the same subnet for a bit. But as a long term solution it won't do for a laptop.
[01:32] <malik_> how do i configure firefox to play multimedia streams from internet?......i have kaffienbe and kmplayer with xine engine
[01:33] <YumeNoEien> Lynoure: thanks, Il get to that later on. I have to go meet a friend right now
[01:33] <YumeNoEien> my problem may not be solved (yet) but thanks a lot for your help!

[02:31] <needKubuntuhelp>  There
[02:31] <needKubuntuhelp>  Okay, anyone want to help a complete newb?
[02:31] <mineur> what's the prob? :)
[02:32] <Tox> hi, is there any way to view/preview folder content at the side panel in  konqueror not opening it ?
[02:32] <needKubuntuhelp>  I know about the program repositories and all........ but my Kubuntu-running computer is not connected to the internet. How do I find, download and install these programs?
[02:33] <needKubuntuhelp>  I told you I was a newb..........
[02:33] <mineur> well
[02:33] <Tox> ok i found it "tree view" tnx anyway if somebody will answer :)
[02:34] <needKubuntuhelp>  lol @ Tox
[02:34] <Tox> :)
[02:34] <mineur> hang on needKubuntuhelp :)
[02:35] <mineur> needKubuntuhelp: you can download the *.deb packages
[02:35] <mineur> and install them manually
[02:36] <needKubuntuhelp>  Manually........ as in more complicated than double-clicking on the installer file and it installs itself?
[02:36] <mineur> no :)
[02:36] <needKubuntuhelp>  Oh good
[02:36] <mineur> in konquerer... right click on it, install package :)
[02:36] <Tox> how do u think he do it if he dont have internet :)
[02:36] <mineur> not sure what the program is called to install packages manually
[02:36] <mineur> installed from the cd? :)
[02:36] <needKubuntuhelp>  So where are these repositories?
[02:37] <needKubuntuhelp>  Yeah, Kubuntu installed from cd
[02:37] <ubuntu> hey i need some help with my partitions... i have 2 partitions for kubuntu but cant "create" them with qtparted. they have unknown type
[02:37] <needKubuntuhelp>  ubuntu, last time I had that, I had to reformat the whole drive a couple of times, shut down, reboot, THEN it would let me do what I wanted.
[02:38] <needKubuntuhelp>  But somebody else here probably knows a better way :P
[02:38] <ubuntu> uh
[02:38] <needKubuntuhelp>  QTParted just will NOT do what I want sometimes. Don't know why.
[02:38] <ubuntu> hm i wonder if i killed my windows partition with that
[02:38] <karmikaze> can you concatinate two partitions without losing data? or would you lose the data on both partitions
[02:38] <Tox> try some programs ( like partition magic or acronis) boot disks
[02:39] <mineur> needKubuntuhelp: I'm not sure about a web frontend to browse and search the repository
[02:39] <ubuntu> i using kubuntu live cd at the moment, but guess i cant install it by using this partitions can i?
[02:39] <needKubuntuhelp>  Anyway, where are these repositories of programs when you're on an M$ computer?
[02:39] <needKubuntuhelp>  Rats
[02:40] <mineur> http://packages.ubuntu.com/
[02:40] <needKubuntuhelp>  ubuntu, you can manually install if you set the partitions up beforehand
[02:40] <mineur> here you can browse.... :)
[02:40] <needKubuntuhelp>  Okay, that is going in my browser favorites list
[02:41] <ubuntu> needKubuntuhelp: yes but i cant set the partitions ;)
[02:41] <mineur> but mind you... when you download packages you'll need to check the dependencies... it'll be a huge pain
[02:41] <needKubuntuhelp>  But ubuntu, if Kubuntu is the only OS you want on your computer, you might as well just let it rewrite the hard drive and set up its own partitions
[02:42] <Theory> Does anyone know a way of stopping Network manager from deciding to create default routes if the dhcp server doesn't specify a gateway
[02:42] <Tox> what if he want have both os ?
[02:42] <needKubuntuhelp>  Now if you're setting up a dual-boot system, you'll want to set the partitions manually, then install Kubuntu manually
[02:42] <ubuntu> needKubuntuhelp: hm no my other 3 partitions need to stay on the hdd
[02:43] <needKubuntuhelp>  Then subdivide the partition you want Kubuntu in and install it to said partition manually
[02:43] <needKubuntuhelp>  QTParted does that
[02:43] <mineur> needKubuntuhelp: can't you temporarely hook your pc up to the net to install/upgrad epackages?
[02:44] <mineur> because to download and install manually... it'll be a huge pain.
[02:44] <needKubuntuhelp>  Probably need logic partitions instead of real partitions if you're on an Intel processor though......... :/
[02:44] <ubuntu> needKubuntuhelp: qtparted doesnt give me any opportunities to do that
[02:44] <needKubuntuhelp>  mineur, what did you mean dependencies?
[02:44] <Tox> is there any professional program for manipulations with hdd in linus like acronis i win i.e ?
[02:44] <needKubuntuhelp>  Yes QTParted does
[02:44] <mineur> some packages depend on others... so if you want to install A it may require BCDEF
[02:44] <needKubuntuhelp>  Ahhh
[02:44] <mineur> so if you dson't have them installed..........
[02:45] <mineur> you'll need to download them too
[02:45] <needKubuntuhelp>  And if you just link to the repositories straight, it'll do that automatically
[02:45] <needKubuntuhelp>  ?
[02:45] <mineur> yes with adept or synaptec, great front ends
[02:45] <mineur> they'll just download all the required things
[02:46] <needKubuntuhelp>  So my IP is Centurytel, and I have their Netopia modem. Can I just take it out of the back of this Windows XP computer, plug it into my Kubuntu computer and take off?
[02:47] <mineur> depends on your provider... is your mac-address registered to them?
[02:47] <mineur> might be wise to release your ip first in windows...
[02:47] <waylandbill_> needKubuntuhelp: shared libraries mostly are dependencies.
[02:47] <needKubuntuhelp>  mineur: Don't know
[02:47] <mineur> probably it isn't then :)
[02:47] <ubuntu> needKubuntuhelp: puuh guess ill boot windows and try with pmagic

[02:48] <needKubuntuhelp>  Just a comment
[02:48] <mineur> so then, yes release your ip in windows switch cable, and then someone here might tell you the graphical frontend to get your internet going :d
[02:48] <waylandbill_> mineur: the computer you plug into is going to ask for dhcp request anyway, so releasing first shouldn't be needed.
[02:48] <mineur> with my isp I have to.... if I don't release my isp won't give me a new ip-address
[02:49] <mineur> but I wouldn't be surprised if it just works without releasing :)
[02:49] <waylandbill_> mineur: that's a limitation in their bind daemon then.
[02:49] <mineur> yep... I didn't say it as a good thing... it sucks :d
[02:49] <waylandbill_> :)
[02:50] <mineur> I guess he's gonna try it :)
[02:50] <waylandbill_> guess so.
[02:51] <mineur> I'm going to try to get sun java running here

[03:19] <binks> hi josh_
[03:19] <Khayaal> can anybody help me how to install a dial up modem in kubuntu?
[03:20] <mineur> try: sudo mv ?PEL* foo
[03:20] <Khayaal> i am not able to connect through it
[03:20] <josh_> iiiiiiii cant get the vmware tools iiiiiiiiiiiiinstalled and it is killing my typpppppppppppppppppppping and mouse and stuff
[03:20] <josh_> aas you can see by    the mmmmmmuliple repeated keys
[03:20] <binks> mv: cannot stat `?PEL*': No such file or directory
[03:21] <mineur> if you can't get it installed........ how can it screw up things then josh_?
[03:21] <binks> can i try sudo mv *PEL*foo
[03:21] <mineur> hmmm
[03:21] <mineur> then try: sudo mv *PEL* foo
[03:21] <josh_> bbbbbbbecause until it gets installed it doesn't recognize thing properly
[03:21] <Parkotron> Khayaal: I'm not sure if I can't help or not, but I'll try.
[03:21] <josh_> llllike keystrokes and ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssscreen size
[03:22] <mineur> no other files are recognised with the *PEL* pattern, so it should be ok :)
[03:22] <Parkotron> Khayaal: Is the modem detected as an interface?
[03:22] <Khayaal> no
[03:22] <binks> 2 down minuer you the man/gal
[03:22] <mineur> man :)
[03:22] <binks> :)
[03:22] <klees> how can i tell what plugins i have installed in Firefox???
[03:23] <mineur> with your plugin manager I guess. I don't use ff
[03:23] <Parkotron> klees: about:plugins in the address bar.
[03:23] <mineur> but I guess when it has plugins... it has a manager for them :)
[03:23] <klees> mineur: i dont know how to use the plugin manager
[03:23] <Parkotron> klees: Or did you mean extentions?
[03:23] <josh_> iiiiiiiiiii have tried googling for my problem and have       founnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnd various sites explaining hhhow to do it but nonne of them work
[03:24] <klees> Parkotron: no plugins.  i need to know what version is the flash plugin installed
[03:24] <Parkotron> josh_: Try #vmware. You'll probably have better luck there.
[03:24] <josh_> and the extra keystrokes is really      buggingg me as i hate tttttttttttttttttyposssssssssssssssssssss
[03:24] <josh_> ook thank you
[03:24] <Khayaal> and what about me? how to connect to net in kubuntu? :)
[03:25] <Parkotron> klees: Then about:plugins should tell you.
[03:25] <mineur> when I was playing with dial ups... I was still using winblows.... :) so sorry can't help you out :)
[03:25] <binks> khayaal how do you connect cable dsl how
[03:25] <klees> Parkotron: thx that worked
[03:26] <mineur> I think he just said dial up...
[03:26] <Khayaal> well, i am using windows
[03:26] <Khayaal> and i dont have cable
[03:26] <Parkotron> Khayaal: Sorry, I don't think I can help you. I've never dealt with modems in Linux.
[03:26] <Khayaal> in my area in pakistan
[03:26] <Khayaal> its ok
[03:26] <Khayaal> :)
[03:26] <mineur> and why do you come to a linux channel to get your modem working in windows? :)
[03:26] <Khayaal> no
[03:26] <Khayaal> from windows i can connect to net
[03:27] <binks> he has to connect using windows he wants kubuntu
[03:27] <Khayaal> when kubuntu is not even recognizing whether i have modem or not
[03:27] <binks> is it a pci modem
[03:27] <Khayaal> yeah, i want to connect through kubuntu
[03:27] <mineur> well have you checked the KPPP tool yet?
[03:28] <Khayaal> it is zoltrix conaxant modem
[03:28] <binks> dapper or edgy Khayaal
[03:28] <binks> it will be recognised
[03:28] <Khayaal> my display, sound, printer etc. all are recgonzied by kubuntu
[03:28] <binks> trust me
[03:28] <Khayaal> how to?
[03:28] <steveire> I thought konqueror was usable as a ftp client. Doesn't seem to be really.
[03:29] <binks> http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Edgy#How_to_configure_dialup_connectionse
[03:29] <mineur> I would guess: open kppp tool, there's an option to add a modem... but as I said before.. never tried to configure a dial up modem in linux
[03:29] <binks> ctrl f and seach dial
[03:29] <steveire> I logged in to a ftp site, and it reports no files or folders.
[03:29] <mineur> maybe it's an empty ftp site? :)
[03:29] <binks> in the ubuntu guide that is
[03:29] <Khayaal> and where i can find kppp tool? :)
[03:29] <Parkotron> Khayaal: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=190728 might help?
[03:29] <binks> sudo apt-get install kppp
[03:29] <mineur> in your kde menu under internet... but check the link binks just gave
[03:30] <binks> Khayaal you on the machine atm or is it another machine
[03:31] <Khayaal> i have different partition for windows and kubuntu
[03:31] <Khayaal> i am using windows xp right now
[03:31] <h3sp4wn> You cannot expect someone to install things with apt-get with no working internet connection
[03:31] <mineur> hehe h3sp4wn
[03:31] <binks> just got the last file mineur mint thanks alot ::):)
[03:32] <mineur> np :)
[03:32] <mineur> kppp is installed by default
[03:32] <binks> heh me daft h3sp4wn think b4 you type binks
[03:32] <h3sp4wn> Khayaal: http://linmodems.org/ have a look on that site see if your modem is supported
[03:33] <mineur> finally someone with modem knowledge here :d
[03:33] <archangel_> I have a M$ multimedia keyboard. Can I use the multi media buttons with kubuntu?
[03:33] <binks> that zotrix modem is one of the most popular ever made its a usrobotics clone
[03:34] <Khayaal> yeah
[03:34] <Khayaal> thanks god
[03:34] <Khayaal> but still I have to use dialups, what a pity :)
[03:34] <binks> no god is the barman in my local ;)
[03:35] <mineur> archangel_: http://keytouch.sourceforge.net/ might be something for you?
[03:36] <archangel_> sweet thanx
[03:36] <mineur> also check this forumpost: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=193936
[03:36] <mineur> I wonder why I'm doing all the googling for others :p
[03:37] <h3sp4wn> http://<IP_ADDRESS>/linmodems/first.html - that scanmodem tool should help you easily find out what chipset etc you have
[03:37] <mineur> jeuj een landgenoot :p
[03:38] <h3sp4wn> best to learn linux with no internet connection anyway (maybe no X either)
[03:38] <h3sp4wn> as long as you have some doc's
[03:38] <mineur> that's true... but on your own in console... takes some time and a lot of effort
[03:39] <binks> h3sp4wn why do we need to learn with no x  we aint all got that time you can learn in x i think no x would put 99.9% of people off
[03:40] <binks> if you want to work in nix maybe but for the average desktop user
[03:42] <mineur> that's also true... but the more you know from stuff under the hood, the better you can resolve problems :)
[03:43] <mineur> it never harms reading a config file, being able to work with apt-get and stuff like that... cause once your nice desktop crashes... you're left alone in a dark console :)
[03:43] <y3it221_klce> how to upgrade Ubuntu Dapper to Kubuntu Edgy??
[03:43] <h3sp4wn> y3it221_klce: only supported way is by update-manager
[03:43] <mineur> y3it221_klce: first backup your system, then run: sudo update-manager -c -d
[03:44] <h3sp4wn> changing sources.list and dist-upgrade you will have some stuff to fix manually
[03:44] <Hobbsee> !update

[03:45] <mineur> anyone knows of an alternative for Karamba or superkaramba? cause it keeps crashing here :(
[03:45] <h3sp4wn> binks: Unless you use cli you don't get the advantages of using ths os (may as well use a mac or windows)
[03:45] <binks> is it the widget or superkaramba thats crashing
[03:45] <mineur> !cli
[03:45] <ubotu> The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE).  Manuals: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BasicCommands
[03:46] <mineur> ah :)
[03:46] <Parkotron> Does anyone know how to enable FLAC support in K3B? Some other distros have a specific package for it, Kubuntu doesn't seem to.
[03:46] <mineur> don't know... I guess the widget... but I want that widget :p
[03:47] <binks> i use cli alot but didnt when i first started nix if i had to then i dont think i would of stuck it out its only with time and confidence that i use a terminal more

[04:23] <Dr_willis> pip`,  and the issue is?
[04:23] <pip`> my desktop runs off my monitor on all sides :((
[04:23] <pip`> already tried adjusting both monitor & kubuntu display settings
[04:23] <stdin> that's better, I am one ahain :)
[04:24] <chuen> Afternoon all.
[04:24] <Dr_willis> pip`,  does the screen actually scroll? or is just a little too big?
[04:24] <pip`> the display was ok yesterday
[04:24] <chuen> I'm trying to set up amule
[04:24] <pip`> the screen is way to big
[04:24] <chuen> Can someone tell me how I go about opening a couple of ports?
[04:24] <Dr_willis> pip`,  are you saying its real low 'resolution' ?
[04:24] <klees> how do i disable shadows from the desktop font (kubuntu)??
[04:24] <Parkotron> pip`: Try running krandrtray and use the applet that shows up un the systray.
[04:24] <stdin> chuen: on a router ?
[04:25] <pip`> and my lcd monitor doesnt seem to have x-y size controls
[04:25] <pip`> Parko, ok
[04:25] <chuen> stdin: Hi. I have opened them on the router (forwarding). But when I look at firestarter amule is trying port 80
[04:25] <Dr_willis> a lcd monitor you normally want to run at its native resolution
[04:25] <pip`> well, the resolution seems to have changed from high to a mere 640 etc
[04:26] <amigrave> Trying to install kubuntu 6.10 with the i386 cd installer on my Dell Latitude X1, after X has been started, I get this error from KDM : "Authenticating Ubuntu...   A critical error occured"  does this sound familiar to ne1?
[04:26] <Xera> does kubuntu come with gtkhtml2?
[04:26] <pip`> my screen resolution is usually set to native 1280
[04:26] <stdin> chuen: what port should it run in
[04:27] <pip`> but it seems to have changed to 640 since yesterday
[04:27] <Buffer> amigrave ... your latitude is Duo?
[04:27] <amigrave> Buffer: Duo ?
[04:28] <amigrave> Buffer: what do you mean with Duo ?
[04:28] <Buffer> two processor
[04:28] <chuen> stdin: 4662 (tcp) 4672 (udp)
[04:29] <chuen> stdin: But AFAIK they can be pretty much any number.
[04:30] <waylandbill> amigrave: did you do a media check?
[04:30] <pip`> yesterday i tried installing a drive image program but it ended up conflicting ...  dont know if it has anything to do with my latest display problems
[04:32] <stdin> chuen: amule seems to be using those ports when I install it
[04:33] <amigrave> waylandbill: is "media check" an option of the boot cd that I missed ?

[04:37] <waylandbill> amigrave: or the cd itself.
[04:37] <stdin> waylandbill, amigrave: on the cd it's called "Chack the CD for defects"

[04:42] <xeroxer> oki. great.
[04:42] <ondebarnet> ok but all i want some windows syatem running instea d of text
[04:42] <mineur> it does what a client has to do... nothing less, nothing more :)
[04:43] <ondebarnet> is startx not the command to start the graphical system?
[04:43] <stdin> ondebarnet: from the console use "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" and choose the "ati" driver for the card
[04:43] <xeroxer> good. just so used to windows and now I am trying kubuntu on my laptop
[04:43] <ondebarnet> ok thx i try
[04:43] <Jucato> !xconfig
[04:43] <ubotu> To reconfigure your X server, open a console and type "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg". To configure only the driver and resolution, type: "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh".
[04:44] <jab> every time i reboot i have to manually enter "iwconfig wlan0 essid lan0 essid [myWiFiNetwork] ; dhclient wlan0" to get wireless up. anyone know how to make this happen automatically?
[04:45] <Lynoure> jab: knetworkmanager did not work for you somehow? But you can make a startup script with that command, or something.
[04:45] <Dr_willis> - /etc/rc.local perhaps
[04:45] <h3sp4wn> jab: man 7 wireless
[04:45] <stdin> jab: you can add that command to run when the network starts, in /etc/network/interfaces
[04:46] <h3sp4wn> jab: (tells you how to put it in the correct format for /etc/network/interfaces
[04:46] <h3sp4wn> so you can avoid the hack like nature of using pre-up
[04:46] <jab> Lynoure: i didn't see a way to specify that i want to automatically join a particular network with knetworkmanager
[04:46] <BluesKaj> Howdy All  ;)
[04:47] <Lynoure> jab: oh, mine join automatically the one I have joined before, but maybe I'm lucky. And the other networks here have keys I do not know, so maybe it'd be different if some of them were open.
[04:48] <chuen> stdin: Is that a screenshot you took of ports?
[04:48] <stdin> chuen: yep
[04:49] <stdin> jab: you need to change your /etc/network interfaces to have something like this in it http://pastebin.ca/315391http://pastebin.ca/315391
[04:49] <ondebarnet> stdin you are my hero it works!
[04:49] <stdin> ondebarnet: :)
[04:49] <bsm> hey, anyone using vmware server with ubuntu 6.10? when I try to launch the gui nothing happens, vmware process is at 100%
[04:49] <chuen> stdin: OK I'll try thise, what command did you use to get that?
[04:49] <mineur> more chance in #vmware bsm
[04:49] <jab> stdin: thanks so much, will try]
[04:49] <chuen> Do you use firestarter?
[04:49] <bsm> mineur: tried it =)
[04:50] <jab> stdin: should i take out the existing line "auto wlan0"?
[04:50] <mineur> in that case... never used vmware :)
[04:50] <bsm> damn
[04:50] <stdin> jab: no leave that part in, all you need to add is the "pre-up" line
[04:51] <jab> stdin: great, thanks. will reboot and see what happens
[04:51] <stdin> jab: you don't need to reboot :P
[04:51] <stdin> jab: just run "sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart"
[04:52] <jab> stdin: oh ok, great
[04:52] <Dr_willis> using vmware server here just fine. There was a issue with the early releases of Edgy-eft that had some issues with vmware-server.
[04:52] <waveler> its my first time to use linux(kubuntu) what will i use to download mp3?
[04:53] <Dr_willis> bsm,  so i would say - update your system to the latest bits.. and try again.
[04:53] <Dr_willis> !p2p
[04:53] <ubotu> Conventional P2P clients: Limewire/GTK-Gnutella/Frostwire (Gnutella Network).  -  BitTorrent: see !torrent  -  Direct connect: try valknut.  -  Also see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/P2PFileSharing for general information.
[04:53] <pip`> omg! i think i just found out what was causing my oversized screen display problem...  yesterday i change my default browser to Epiphany !  but WHY should this cause such a problem ??
[04:53] <waveler> ok tnx
[04:53] <Dr_willis> pip`,  it shouldent.
[04:53] <waveler> i'll try it
[04:53] <ondebarnet> anyone has winuae working w wine?
[04:54] <Dr_willis> ondebarnet,  cant say that ive tried that.. there are linux native ports of the Amiga Emulator UAE
[04:54] <chuen> stdin: mmm, still not showing up on firestarter. (5115)
[04:54] <Bluedog> I want to make transparency in terminal show the windows below, not my desktop
[04:55] <Bluedog> anyone know how?
[04:55] <ondebarnet> yeah but winuae is better
[04:55] <stdin> chuen: firestarter only shows active connections, not listening ports
[04:55] <Dr_willis> Bluedog,  thats what xgl/aiglx is all about..
[04:55] <Dr_willis> Bluedog,  and other eye candy
[04:55] <Jucato> Bluedog: not possible without compositing (beryl/compiz or kompmgr)
[04:55] <chuen> stdin: Oh!
[04:55] <Dr_willis> yea beryl :) im still not sure how all that interrelates
[04:55] <pip`> when i changed back to Konqueror browser default, i rebooted & it gave me an 'out of frequency' screen error, but this time the settings-display menu allowed me to change settings back to high resolution etc
[04:55] <Bluedog> so I need to install beryl?
[04:55] <Bluedog> !beryl
[04:55] <ubotu> Beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. See http://forum.beryl-project.org/ - Help in #ubuntu-xgl
[04:56] <Dr_willis> beryl is not a simple 'install'
[04:56] <chuen> stdin: How can I detect those?
[04:56] <Bluedog> ah just seen that..
[04:56] <mineur> Dr_willis: sure it is... I set it up in 5 minuts, following the wiki
[04:56] <Bluedog> what exactly IS it, does it replace the gnome window manager?
[04:56] <Dr_willis> mineur,  last i tried it - it was a disaster. :) but that was about 2 mo. ago.
[04:56] <mineur> hehe, what graphical card?
[04:56] <Jahman> hi
[04:56] <Dr_willis> Nvidia 6800
[04:57] <mineur> I have a crapy intel one on my laptop... and beryl runs surprisingly smooth on it
[04:57] <Dr_willis> the beryl/other stuff is advancing so fast however.. its amazing.
[04:57] <manchicken> Bluedog: No, it just overheats your video card and steals your memory.  But it is quite neat to see ^_^
[04:57] <Dr_willis> mineur,  my x200 card in my laptop cant handle it.
[04:57] <stdin> chuen: I use this command in konsole "sudo netstat -lnp" (-l = listening ports, -n use numbers for IPs and ports, -p show the process name listening on the port)
[04:57] <mineur> it is just more eye candy for your kde... :)
[04:57] <chuen> stdin: Thanks. I'll try it now ..
[04:58] <manchicken> mineur: I'd rather people focus on real neat-looking design instead of all this 3d jiggly nonsense.
[04:58] <mineur> or whatever window manager you use :)
[04:58] <stdin> chuen: you may want to add "|less" to the end, so it don't all scroll by :)
[04:59] <mineur> I agree it's useless but I like it anyway lol
[05:04] <h3sp4wn> It doesn't work with e17
[05:04] <cbeck> hi
[05:05] <waveler> is limewire compatible with linux?
[05:05] <cbeck> yes
[05:05] <cbeck> go to the wesite
[05:05] <waveler> can you give me the link?
[05:05] <cbeck> and you can download a linux version
[05:05] <cbeck> sure hold on
[05:05] <pip`> anyone here ever use moblock ?
[05:05] <waveler> its my first time to use linux
[05:06] <pip`> does moblock work with kubuntu i wonder?
[05:07] <cbeck> http://www.limewire.com/LimeWireSoftLinux
[05:07] <waveler> tnx
[05:07] <Daisuke_Ido> frostwire, probably
[05:07] <waveler> i still find it diffucult to use this system
[05:08] <Daisuke_Ido> of course, the only reason anyone (i know) uses limewire is "adult material" and/or music.  and there are better solutions for both out there.
[05:08] <Xera> lol
[05:08] <Xera> i use it for music
[05:08] <waveler> lol
[05:08] <waveler> me too
[05:08] <Daisuke_Ido> check nicotine
[05:09] <Daisuke_Ido> or rather nicotine-plus
[05:09] <Xera> *cough*allmymusicisfromthere*cough*
[05:09] <arriesp> hi
[05:09] <Xera> bnr? bonor?
[05:10] <chuen> stdn: Sorry, could you send me that net activity command again pls? I thought I'd saved log to file but hadn't :(
[05:11] <stdin> chuen: yeah, I use it like: sudo netstat -lnp | less
[05:11] <chuen> stdin: thx.
[05:11] <stdin> :)
[05:16] <JP_P_home> hello
[05:16] <waveler> cbeck how will i install it now?
[05:17] <JP_P_home> I have a problem to install a network printer
[05:17] <waveler> i finished downloading it
[05:17] <ninnghizidha> question: How can i stick the multifunction-sidebar to the right side?
[05:17] <JP_P_home> it is a xerox phaser 6110
[05:17] <waveler> how can i install limewire? i finished downloading it
[05:17] <stdin> ninnghizidha: drag it maybe
[05:17] <chuen> stdin: Mm, what's weird (to me!) is it looks like amule is choosing arbitrary ports each time, rather than the ones I have aloocated in its preferences (and 'mirrored' on my router)
[05:17] <higi_> hello. I wanted to change my IP address and went to Control Panel- Network Preferences. Then I clicked in "administrator mode in order to gain root access", and the border of the window goes red and nothing happens. Can anyone help?

[05:19] <waveler> i'll try it
[05:19] <stdin> chuen: it always uses the same ports here
[05:19] <stdin> JP_P_home: what's the problem ?
[05:20] <JP_P_home> i go to the printer manager to add a printer
[05:20] <JP_P_home> i choose tcp
[05:20] <JP_P_home> then i analyze the network to find the printer
[05:21] <JP_P_home> it found <IP_ADDRESS>:9100 which is correct
[05:21] <JP_P_home> but after there is no driver for this xerox in the listing
[05:21] <higi_> does anyone know
[05:21] <JP_P_home> so i install what's was in the cdrom and i can found 2 files which correspond with the same name
[05:22] <JP_P_home> but after i try to print and nothing append
[05:22] <Xera> higi_: you should get a little box popup to enter the password, do so
[05:22] <Xera> then the area with the red border becomes activ

[05:23] <higi_> Xera im not getting any popup
[05:23] <chuen> stdin: strange even :)
[05:23] <Xera> higi_: well, it will look like the one when you run adept or some other root program
[05:23] <higi_> yes i imagine
[05:23] <higi_> but it is not appearing
[05:23] <stdin> chuen: make sure you're looking at the ports, not the PIDs
[05:24] <arriesp> bye
[05:24] <chuen> stdin: I'll take another loo. thx.
[05:24] <higi_> :S
[05:24] <Xera> higi_: hmm
[05:24] <higi_> Xera:  is there any way to do it through Konsole?
[05:24] <Xera> uh
[05:24] <Xera> sudo systemsettings -caption "%c" %i %m
[05:24] <Xera> i guess
[05:25] <stdin> JP_P_home: xerox seem to have a driver for linux http://www.support.xerox.com/go/getfile.asp?Xlang=en_US&XCntry=USA&objid=58350&EULA=0&prodID=6110&Family=Phaser&ripId=&langs=English%20(US)&plats=Linux&Xtype=download&uType=

[05:25] <higi_> oh
[05:25] <higi_> i have root access now
[05:25] <higi_> yes
[05:25] <higi_> thanks
[05:25] <Xera> np
[05:26] <chuen> stdin: Can you remember whether you set the udp to be the same as tcp (looks like you did). BTW, I was looking at PID's :)
[05:26] <higi_> why doesnt it work normally?
[05:26] <mineur> any idea where I have to look to fix my screensaver? somehow some elements are coming through a gl screensaver, and when I pick a non gl screensaver it stops moving...
[05:26] <stdin> I'm only going to say this once....
[05:26] <stdin> DON'T use sudo for GUI apps
[05:26] <stdin> use kdesu
[05:26] <JP_P_home> stdin> i donwload it hopping it will work better than the one on their cd
[05:26] <stdin> chuen: I just left everything to the defaults :)
[05:27] <chuen> stdin: Do you use a router?
[05:27] <stdin> chuen: this PC is the router for my network, so kinda yes, kinda no :P
[05:27] <chuen> stdin: OK :)
[05:28] <stdin> chuen: but the modem is connected directly, so, for what you're asking, no
[05:28] <Xera> screw j00
[05:28] <Xera> XD
[05:28] <Xera> gksudo won't install here, so i have to
[05:28] <chuen> stdb: OK, I have a linksys router too ...
[05:29] <chuen> stdin: Back to the drawing board I guess ..
[05:29] <stdin> chuen: as long as you set it to forward the ports, it shouldn't matter
[05:30] <chuen> stdin: That's what I figured (worked in Windoze with emule). OK, I'll have another look / think.
[05:32] <JP_P_home> stdin> i think i understand this is for 6110 i have 6110n (with network support) may driver must be different if you plug a printer in usb or on your lan ?
[05:33] <stdin> JP_P_home: I don't have that printer, I just searched for the driver
[05:33] <JP_P_home> stdin> yes i understood
[05:34] <stdin> JP_P_home: the only 2 I found are these http://tinyurl.com/y4j54j

[05:41] <balint> tried amarok and xmms-too
[05:41] <chuen> stdin: Apart from different port numbers, I compared my netstats to yours and they're the same (tcp is listening).
[05:42] <chuen> stdin: Can I upload a quck paste  for you to glance at?
[05:42] <dyegov> Hi, I would like someone to helo me with my resolution problem. I want to have my monitor on 1024x786 but the option is not there. I have done it before changing the Horizontal and Vert something in the xorg.conf file, but I do not remember . . .

[05:43] <Dr_willis> msttcorefonts  - is the pacakge to install
[05:43] <Dr_willis> :)
[05:44] <dyegov> That is exactly what I was looking for, thanks a lot
[05:44] <waveler> how can i set up 5.1 configuration in kubuntu?
[05:44] <BluesKaj> turn doen the mixer to about 60% then crank your spkrs up with it's volume cntrl
[05:44] <dyegov> Can someone tell me if EasyUbuntu works on Kububtu and how do I install it?
[05:44] <chuen> stdin: It's OK, it's working (I think ) ...hang on ...
[05:44] <Dr_willis> waveler,  i just use the alsamixer or other mixer to mirror the front to rear speakers.
[05:44] <Dr_willis> dyegov,   best to avoide easyubuntu and DEfiniatly avoide automatix
[05:45] <waveler> how can i access alsamixer?
[05:45] <balint> BluesKaj: now i turned on the EQ in amarok and now the scratch is very-very little, it almost cannot be heared... but I'm maximalist in sounds, and I can still discover a little scratch :(
[05:45] <stdin> dyegov: don't use it, it can damage your system and is not reccommended or supported
[05:45] <dyegov> Why? I need to plat mp3s, dvds etc
[05:45] <chuen> stdin: Yes! It's connected to a server OK .... not sure about KAD yet though.
[05:45] <LjL> Ubotu, tell dyegov about codecs | dyegov, see the private message from Ubotu
[05:45] <Dr_willis> dyegov,  you can easially install that stuff without a script that may do all sorts of OTHER things.
[05:45] <LjL> dyegov: i'm not sure what makes you think you need easyubuntu or automatix for that
[05:45] <Dr_willis> !dvd

[05:46] <stdin> waveler: just type "alsamixer" in to konsole
[05:46] <Dr_willis> set up the right repos... install the stuff with the package manager... thats not modifying a lot of files... using easyubuntu/automatix WILL modify a lot of files.
[05:47] <dyegov> and what does it do to my comp gthat could be that badP?

[05:55] <JP_P_home> stdin> in the kde pannel but  not in the pannel given with the dirvers
[05:55] <stdin> sinbad33: wooh :D
[05:56] <sinbad33> woot wooT
[05:56] <binks> anyone no of a good app for printing onto cds ie labeling
[05:56] <BluesKaj> what spkr system are you using ... I presume you are using an outboard HiFi amplifier with HiFi speakers
[05:57] <h3sp4wn> balint: audigy's suck for listening to music
[05:58] <BluesKaj> balint, and mp3 doesn't qualify as Hi Fi...maybe Wav, FLAC or other lossless codecs but not MP3
[05:58] <h3sp4wn> balint: if you have a 44100 file or cd then it is resampled (badly) in hardware to 48000 so it sounds crap
[05:59] <h3sp4wn> If everything was 48000 files it could sound ok
[05:59] <snowrichard> I used to work on an aircraft carrier I know I can't
[06:00] <Dr_willis> Factory worker here... i do wear my earplugs every day
[06:00] <h3sp4wn> You really can tell the difference on decent speakers
[06:01] <Dr_willis> will my Kenny. G. sound that much better! :)
[06:02] <kosmo> where the sources file in ubuntu
[06:02] <kosmo> ?
[06:02] <h3sp4wn> kosmo: /etc/apt
[06:03] <balint> So than what soundcard are you reccomending for listening to music? i dont have much money, thats why I only got a Creative speaker system (and it sounds very good!)
[06:04] <balint> (if I had money, than I would have X-Fi maybe...)
[06:04] <snowrichard> hate these clouds my sirius keeps cutting out
[06:04] <sinbad33> clouds?
[06:05] <snowrichard> as in rain
[06:05] <Tm_T> balint: Anything that works, plastic speakers won't be any better no matter what soundcard you have.
[06:05] <BluesKaj> mp3 by satellite ... whynot get it free from streamtuner ?
[06:06] <Tm_T> balint: And as long as it's ok to you, no need to care about hifi.
[06:07] <stonedragon12>  (@)
[06:08] <balint> Tm_T: so you say, that with a new soundcard, the sound would be the same as now?
[06:09] <BluesKaj> I listen to strems on my Home Theater system which uses a Harman Kardon Receiever and paradigm 5.1 speaker system (not ultra HiFi) but acceptably good sound and MP3 sounds only ok even at 320kbps
[06:09] <BluesKaj> daughter has some mp3 disks that I tried out
[06:10] <animimotus> hi
[06:10] <Azzco> I've got a display problem. I'm trying to configure xorg.conf but I have no idea what it is about.
[06:10] <Dr_willis> x-fi isent supported under linux yet is it?
[06:11] <ubuntu__> hi, im using the live cd to install kubuntu. i selected to create the partition table myself and im now wondering if my windows partition will be still there after i select the swap and linux partition i ve created before?
[06:12] <Tido> for some reason, my synaptics touchpad has stopped working
[06:12] <Tido> my xorg.conf has it enabled
[06:12] <sinbad33> what the heck is 'focus stealing prevention' mean ?
[06:12] <Tido> and has SHMconfig "on"
[06:12] <Tido> but any changes brings an error message that SHMconfig isn't available
[06:13] <animimotus> I have a friend who have only Windows (sure, could he stay a friend with such OS :p) so he don't know pgp and decrypt a file. I ask if I can use somethings like a zip with a simply password ? I haven't found the option in ark
[06:14] <LjL> animimotus: i don't know if you can do it with ark, but you certainly can do it with the plain 'zip' command
[06:15] <animimotus> oh, a man zip of course :)
[06:15] <Tm_T> balint: Well, I doubt, small plastic speakers will sound like small plastic speakers. ;)
[06:17] <Tm_T> balint: I bought new soundcard myself, well, didn't improve sound much but atleast I got 24bit HW. :(
[06:18] <Tm_T> balint: But this is offtopic so I quit now.
[06:18] <sinbad33> *huggies*
[06:20] <sinbad33> does anyone know how i can save the view-detail setting in Konqueror file mgr ??

[06:27] <sinbad33> stdin, is it even possible to save my Konqueror file mgr view-detailed setting ?
[06:27] <Azzco> Oh okay :)
[06:27] <stdin> sinbad33:  Settings -> Save View Profile "Kubuntu File Manager"
[06:27] <sinbad33> ahh ok i try that
[06:28] <sinbad33> haha
[06:28] <sinbad33> thx stdin
[06:28] <stdin> :)
[06:29] <sinbad33> least u dont got dislecsia (like me)
[06:30] <stdin> no, I just don't pay enough attention to what I'm doing :)
[06:43] <balint> Hi again. how can i change the size of the icons on the wholw tray?
[06:43] <stdin> wholw tray?
[06:43] <balint> whole :)
[06:44] <balint> cause i only could change the size, by changing the size of the entire tray...
[06:44] <balint> But now the tasks are shown only in one line, but i would need two lines for the tasks, but than the icons are bigger too :(
[06:46] <stdin> balint: hmm, don't know :P they should know in #kde tho
[06:46] <Jucato> what's the problem?
[06:46] <kosmo>
[06:46] <tejedor> hey you
[06:46] <balint> Jucato. do you know how to change th icon size on the tray, without making smaller the enitre tray? (panel..)
[06:47] <Jucato> balint: um... the icons on the system tray? no. their size is set, afaik...
[06:47] <tejedor> i got a problem with installing my nvidia graphic card
[06:49] <balint> tejedor: and whats the problem exactly?
[06:49] <tejedor> i tried what the wiki says sudo nvidia-glx-config enable ... but it's not working, it says it doesn't know the command
[06:49] <balint> tejedor: cause the config is in the glx packet now..
[06:49] <spitwise> oh man kosmo i can see that font in konsole. kewl.
[06:50] <tejedor> uh huh ...
[06:50] <balint> tejedor: after sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx, just change in xorg.conf under device, the driver from nv to nvidia
[06:50] <Jucato> actually, it's safer to "sudo nvidia-xconfig" than to manually edit xorg.conf in this case
[06:51] <balint> Jucato: sudo nvidia-xconfig brings up a grapich interface?
[06:51] <Jucato> nope
[06:51] <Jucato> it just automatically changes your xorg.conf
[06:51] <Jucato> to default nvidia settings
[06:52] <tejedor> mhh it seems to be working :)
[06:52] <sinbad33> darn it my screen resolution keeps RESETting  what the heck
[06:53] <stdin> sinbad33: have you changed the settings in xorg.conf ?
[06:54] <h3sp4wn> stdin: make sure you have Load "glx" - don't have Load "dri" - set Driver "nvidia"
[06:54] <sinbad33> stdin, not that i know of
[06:54] <stdin> h3sp4wn: why are you telling me that?
[06:55] <h3sp4wn> stdin: why not ?
[06:55] <h3sp4wn> (bad tab completion)
[06:55] <balint> and now if we are at display problems, I have one too: my monitor doesnt support 85Hz in 1280. i changed res to 1024, but I cant set the refresh to 85Hz...
[06:55] <stdin> h3sp4wn: heh :)
[06:55] <stdin> sinbad33: have you use the command to reconfigure the xserver ?
[06:55] <tejedor> uhm and how do I make the whole thing working after all ? it still says graphics-card N/A ... but the driver's nvidia now
[06:55] <balint> its funny cause, when i put my res to 1024, than the 85Hz option was enabled.. :D
[06:56] <archangel_> hey, Keytouch rocks!!
[06:56] <balint> tejedor: did you restart X?
[06:56] <stdin> archangel_: yep, it does :)
[06:56] <archangel_> it lets you program your own buttons on your keyboard
[06:56] <tejedor> X ? the window manager you mean ?

[06:57] <balint> oh this keytouch is what i need man!!!!!!!! im gone to download!! :D
[06:57] <balint> tejedor: ctrl-alt-backspace
[06:57] <sinbad33> should i try to edit xconf file then or ?
[06:58] <balint> tejedor: after that you wil have to login again..
[06:58] <stdin> sinbad33: no, don't edit it by hand, unless you are a rocket scientist :P
[06:58] <balint> tejedor: so save any work you are working on

[07:02] <balint> stdin: shoul i edit xorg.conf again? :)

[07:03] <DrNickRiviera> am a bit worried about doing it, as i upgraded a fedora system once and broke it, after which i was told i should never try to run the upgrade, but always reinstall
[07:03] <ScarFreewill> anotherquestion... how can i phone my self from kphone to gmail2voip?
