[12:27] <Tolsty_Kot> Hello! How I can share folders, which are out of my home folder by samba? for example /media/hda1/Audio
[12:29] <toby> Tolsty_Kot: you can link to them with ln from within your home directory.
[12:29] <toby> Tolsty_Kot: ...or study smb.conf.
[12:33] <Tolsty_Kot> toby I have errors. I can see my share folders (by smb.conf or by links), bat brouser says that there are not folders
[12:33] <toby> Tolsty_Kot: You could try relaxing the permissions on the folder perhaps?
[12:35] <melkor> bonjour tout le monde
[12:36] <melkor> hello everybody
[12:36] <melkor> is there frend user here?
[12:36] <melkor> french
[12:37] <Jucato> !fr | melkor
[12:37] <ubotu> melkor: Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[12:37] <Jucato> ah the patience of users :)
[12:37] <Tolsty_Kot> toby permissions for which group or user? I can do it by sudo
[12:47] <JuJuBee> Trying to install DBDesigner 4 and I need libXft.so.1  where can I get it?
[12:48] <toby> Tolsty_Kot: I don't know - why not pull out your WAN connection temporarily, set the dir to 777, and then reduce permissions until it breaks again?
[12:49] <toby> Tolsty_Kot: then you'll find out what permission is required.
[12:51] <eindbaas> Hi, I need to run the command xmodmap -e "kecode 94 = backslash bar" to remap one of my keys, where can I best put this so that it runs every time I log on?
[12:53] <arrouan> when i try to blank a cd with cdrecord, i have this error cdrecord: Input/output error. blank unit: scsi sendcmd: no error but it s a pata burner not a scsi
[12:56] <Carnage\> eindbaas: ~/.xmodmaprc
[13:04] <eindbaas> Carnage\: cheers
[13:11] <giu> hi, i am trying modify the default runlevel in file /etc/event.d/rc-default but nothing happens
[13:12] <eindbaas> Carnage\: doesnt seem like it is running that file, after i reboot the key is not remapped, but if i manually type xmodmap ~/.xmodmaprc it works again
[13:12] <L_U_D_A_K> hello! :D
[13:12] <L_U_D_A_K> does anybody have some programs for kubuntu
[13:12] <L_U_D_A_K> I'm new user... :D
[13:12] <giu> i need starting in text mode (runlevel 3)
[13:13] <Carnage\> eindbaas: Yeah, you have to manually run it
[13:13] <Carnage\> put xmodmap ~/.xmodmaprc into your ~/.bashrc for example
[13:14]  * genii sips a coffee
[13:14] <eindbaas> Carnage\: ah okay, i'll try
[13:16] <vge> is there a text editor that shows all characters, including newline chars?
[13:17] <lophyte> hey all, I've got compiz fusion running on kubuntu gutsy, but the minimize animation doesn't seem to be working... any suggestions?
[13:18] <giu> =(
[13:18] <schubby> salut tout le monde
[13:19] <schubby> est il possible d'avoir un peu d'aide ici ?§

[13:19] <icewaterman> lophyte: do you know a howto for installing compiz=
[13:20] <Jucato> !compiz | icewaterman
[13:20] <ubotu> icewaterman: 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
[13:20] <Jucato> rawr!... too many ! :D
[13:21] <giu> kubuntu starting in text mode...how to? any suggestion?
[13:22] <Jucato> I think *buntu uses runlevel 3 as the default multiuser with GUI and networking...
[13:23] <Jucato> emonkey-p: I'm guessing all went well then :)
[13:26] <sub[t]rnl> hrm, I think the default runlevel is 2
[13:26] <sub[t]rnl> at least I can't remember changing it..
[13:26] <giu> i modify /etc/event.d/rc.default
[13:27] <giu> put telinit 2 or telinit 3
[13:27] <giu> but nothing happends =(
[13:27] <sub[t]rnl> giu: to change the runlevel, do sudo init 3, or you can remove kdm from /etc/X11/default-display-manager
[13:28] <Jucato> Ubuntu doesn't use the traditional sys v init system
[13:28] <Jucato> !upstart | giu
[13:28] <ubotu> giu: Upstart is meant to replace the old Sys V Init system with an event-driven init model.  For more information please see: http://upstart.ubuntu.com/

[13:29] <flithm> hey everyone... I'm having a weird issue with kde + compiz where adept_notifier always comes up with its own window rather than a sys tray icon.  Anyone else seeing this?
[13:29] <genii> init levels 2,3 and 4 on ubuntu are equivelents for a while now
[13:30] <sub[t]rnl> flithm: Yeah I've seen it.  How are you starting compiz?
[13:30] <flithm> sub[t]rnl: __GL_YIELD="NOTHING" compiz --replace --sm-disable --ignore-desktop-hints ccp
[13:31] <sub[t]rnl> flithm: hrm, I assumed --replace fixed it, but I guess not
[13:32] <flithm> yeah not sure what the solution is
[13:35] <giu> thanks
[13:37] <lophyte> ugh.. having troubles moving applets around on my panels, and they're not locked.. :\
[13:37] <Jucato> what troubles?
[13:38] <lophyte> there's no way to move them
[13:38] <Cthuloid> Aren't there handles you can turn on to help move them, lophyte?
[13:38] <lophyte> in Edgy/Feisty there was a small bar on the side of the applet that you could click on to access the applet menu
[13:38] <Jucato> what are you trying to move? some have handles as Cthuloid mentioned
[13:38] <lophyte> yeah, none of mine have handles
[13:39] <lophyte> and I didn't see an option to turn them on
[13:39] <Jucato> right-click on the panel -> Configure Panel -> Appearance -> Advanced options button
[13:39] <lophyte> ugh.. didn't even see the advanced options button
[13:39] <lophyte> cheers
[13:40] <Jucato> applets that are single icons can be easily moved with middle-click + drag
[13:40] <letalis> would there be a way to load gkrellm before kicker? kicker always throws gkrellm out of where i have it setup when it loads
[13:41] <letalis> its a stupid question, but it something that just urks me a little bit
[13:41] <letalis> lol
[13:44] <[ifr0g]> letalis, gkrellm has an option to save placement.
[13:45] <letalis> yeah ive set it and kicker and gkrellm dont play nice what happens is when gkrellm loads it tries to move kicker out of the way whhich kicker moves, but "squishes" out gkrellm
[13:45] <letalis> so i wind up having to put it back in its spot every single time
[13:46] <letalis> its not a super big deal, but itd be nice if theyd both stay put
[13:46] <[ifr0g]> Maybe it would work if you set kicker on auto hide
[13:49] <letalis> thats a possibility
[13:49] <letalis> i may play with the panel placement options and see if that makes a difference
[13:54] <ardchoille> letalis: I use gkrellm and I put an autostart item for it in Autostart. gkrellm always starts up in the sam eposition
[13:55] <[ifr0g]> letalis, got it..
[13:55] <letalis> ardchoille: is yours setup to be treated like a dock?
[13:55] <[ifr0g]> letalis, tick, "allow other windows to cover the panel"
[13:55] <ardchoille> kicker shouldn't have anything to do with where gkrellm is placed, that would be the job of the window mnager
[13:55] <ardchoille> letalis: no
[13:56] <ardchoille> Oh, well, if you want to cover the panel, that's a different story
[13:56] <letalis> well once i move it into position, kicker moves enough to let gkrellm sit right next to it
[13:57] <[ifr0g]> letalis, tick, "allow other windows to cover the panel" and it wont move gkrellm
[13:57] <letalis> but the initial load it attempts to do it itself and kicker shoves out gkrellm from its position
[13:57] <[ifr0g]> In panel configuration
[13:57] <letalis> ok
[13:57] <jussi01> !mp3

[13:58] <ardchoille> letalis: That is the way kicker is supposed to act because kicker takes the entire row at the bottom. Unless you tell the window manager to allow windows to cover kicker, as [ifr0g] stated

[14:08] <nosrednaekim> sedeki: you mean an IDE?
[14:08] <ardchoille> sedeki: kate
[14:08] <sedeki> not an ide
[14:08] <hydrogen> he said editor

[14:08] <sedeki> great
[14:08] <christos> MarcC: in my case, vrything seems ok, but there's no sound
[14:08] <MarcC> kate is OK but it's kinda primitive
[14:08] <eeanm> ardchoille: I doubt it'd help
[14:09]  * genii hides hydrogen's coffeemug
[14:09] <MarcC> christos: tried Alsamixer?
[14:09] <hydrogen> thats okay
[14:09] <hydrogen> thats why I have a bag of crack!
[14:09] <Jucato> pri...mitive???
[14:09] <ardchoille> eeanm: are you wanting to turn on/off daemons that autostart?
[14:09] <hydrogen> eeanm: i told you, use bum bum bum
[14:09] <christos> MarcC: I don't remember if i did, I'll try it...
[14:10] <Jucato> or System Settings -> Advanced tab -> System Services (a.k.a. serviceconfig)
[14:11] <ardchoille> Jucato: System Settings -> Advanced tab -> System Services . When I click that there is a small window popup that sticks on "0%"
[14:11] <christos> MarcC: I can't find Alsamixer, i found Alsamixergui..... is that the same?
[14:11] <icewaterman> how can i have ubuntu automatically mount an encrypted partition when it is decrypted?
[14:11] <Jucato> ardchoille: weird...
[14:11] <MarcC> christos: that should work fine - alsamixer is run from a terminal window
[14:12] <MarcC> alsamixergui is the same though
[14:12] <icewaterman> i want to use th automounter kubuntu uses
[14:12] <ardchoille> Jucato: yeah, especially since I never install anything that isn't in the repos and I never upgrade
[14:13] <Jucato> ardchoille: it's part of kde-guidance. installed by default
[14:13] <BluesKaj> hi ardchoille, nosrednaekim ...was away for a bit getting some breakfast
[14:13] <Jucato> ardchoille: can you try manually starting it? "serviceconfig"
[14:13] <ardchoille> Jucato: Any way I can fix that?
[14:13] <Jucato> [22:13] <Jucato> ardchoille: can you try manually starting it? "serviceconfig"

[14:20] <chuso> ok, thank you nosrednaekim!
[14:21] <BluesKaj> chuso, there is AMSN if you think kopete is the culprit

[14:26] <eeanm> spiroo: from your home directory, do sudo chown -R spiroo:spiroo .
[14:26] <nosrednaekim> spiroo: its because you started it as root once.. so that happens
[14:26] <[ifr0g]> genii, you can only ask for bug num in pm ..
[14:26] <[ifr0g]> Not here :(
[14:26] <eeanm> nosrednaekim: that doesn't really make sense
[14:27] <eeanm> root has its own ~/.kde
[14:27] <genii> [ifr0g]: Weird. i knew it did work tho.
[14:27] <nosrednaekim> eeanm: I mean,as sudo
[14:27] <spiroo> nosrednaekim: What do you mean exactly?
[14:27] <nosrednaekim> spiroo: if you have ever kdesudo'ed dolphin, thats what happens
[14:27] <eeanm> spiroo: just do what I said, it will probably fix it
[14:28] <The-Compiler> Hi
[14:28] <spiroo> Okay, I go to Konsole and type that or what?
[14:28] <[ifr0g]> hi
[14:28] <eeanm> spiroo: yes
[14:28] <BluesKaj> christos, open kmix and enable Master &PCM on the output tab , thenCD& IEC playback (if listed)in the Input tab , next make sure Mix & IEC958 are enable in the switches tab , then click on settings /configure kmix and appy
[14:29] <ardchoille> Jucato: Anything I need to put into that bug report besides the konsole output?
[14:29] <spiroo> chown, does not work
[14:29] <eeanm> spiroo: what does that mean
[14:29] <ardchoille> eeanm: root's .kde is nothing but symlinks here
[14:29] <spiroo> It says operation is missing after spiroo:spiroo
[14:30] <eeanm> spiroo: did you put the . ?
[14:30] <spiroo> the dot?
[14:30] <eeanm> yes
[14:30] <BluesKaj> frustrating when ppl won't wait for an answer :(
[14:30] <spiroo> ah okay, now I did, not sure if it worked, but not error XD
[14:30] <ardchoille> BluesKaj: impatience :(
[14:31] <spiroo> Anyway, what did that command exactly do?
[14:31] <BluesKaj> instant gratification is the norm these days
[14:31] <ardchoille> yeah
[14:31] <eeanm> ardchoille: not here
[14:31] <huyter> hi guys, did any of you upgrade from 7.04 to 7.10?  is it very problematic??
[14:31] <eeanm> spiroo: if any files were owned by root, it changed them back to being owned by spiroo
[14:32] <nosrednaekim> huyter: fresh install here, but I haven't been hearing many problems
[14:32] <eeanm> huyter: it went fine for me and my friend
[14:32] <spiroo> okay, not sure why that would work, but yea maybe
[14:32] <nosrednaekim> huyter: mostly bad/swamped mirrors
[14:32] <eeanm> lol spiroo
[14:32] <spiroo> huyter: I have same problem, a lot of errors :D
[14:32] <spiroo> For instance, trashcan does not work
[14:33] <spiroo> It did before with development edition XD
[14:33]  * eeanm has a local on-campus mirror
[14:33] <eeanm> 2 mbps downloads :P
[14:33] <ardchoille> Jucato: is /root/.kde/* supposed to be nothing but symlinks? Because that's the way it is here.
[14:33] <huyter> ok, thx for the answers, i'll take the risk
[14:33] <eeanm> ardchoille: do you have a /root/.kde/share ? what does it link to?
[14:33] <nosrednaekim> ardchoille: could be some kdesudo junk..
[14:33] <spiroo> Does anybody know if KDE 4 will solve some bugs in some apps?
[14:34] <eeanm> spiroo: there will be an entirely new set of bugs
[14:34] <eeanm> KDE 4 is mostly rewritten
[14:34] <spiroo> eeanm: haha
[14:34] <ardchoille> eeanm: There is no /root/.kde/share
[14:34] <eeanm> so there won't be the old ones
[14:34] <eeanm> ardchoille: well so you haven't run a kde app as root that needed to store anything
[14:34] <spiroo> eeanm: yes, probably. But for instance, msn in Kopete does not work at all, as I see it anyway
[14:35] <eeanm> I'm not sure what the status of Kopete is in kde 4
[14:35] <ardchoille> eeanm: I have, but it uses my user configs in ~/.kde/*
[14:35] <eeanm> o.O
[14:35] <eeanm> this must be some new trick
[14:35] <spiroo> eeanm: As I have heard they will release Kopete for KDE4, but not sure what that will do in the future.
[14:35] <ardchoille> eeanm: I noticed that when I setup kate as user and then ran kdesu kate and the settings were identical
[14:36] <eeanm> weird
[14:36] <eeanm> permission problems seem likely :)
[14:36] <nosrednaekim> ardchoille: it has to do with KDEsudo
[14:36] <eeanm> I always use just plains sudo I suppose, except for the stuff that runs kdesudo by itself
[14:37] <ardchoille> nosrednaekim: Ok, I also noticed that when I run konqueror as root, I do't have perms to change anything
[14:37] <ardchoille> !kdesu | eeanm
[14:37] <ubotu> eeanm: In KDE, use « kdesudo <program> » (Gutsy) or « kdesu <program> » (Feisty and earlier) to run graphical applications with root privileges when you have to. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why)
[14:37] <eeanm> yea I know what kdesu is ;)
[14:38] <MarcC> it's a japanese word
[14:38] <eeanm> well desu is
[14:38] <eeanm> dunno about kdesu
[14:38] <MarcC> they should just call it desuka
[14:38] <MarcC> keeps the k
[14:38] <Jucato> O.o
[14:38] <ardchoille> eeanm: kdesu for gui apps, sudo for cli apps
[14:39] <MarcC> kore wa k desu
[14:39]  * Jucato wonders if MarcC is being serious or joking...
[14:39] <eeanm> ardchoille:  "These errors occur because sometimes when sudo launches an application, it launches with root privileges but uses the user's configuration file."
[14:39]  * MarcC isn't as serious as he looks
[14:39] <eeanm> so you must be using sudo
[14:39] <ardchoille> eeanm: I use kdesu for gui apps, sudo for cli apps
[14:39] <Jucato> ardchoille: can you brief me? what's the problem
[14:39] <MarcC> I use gksudo when I want my screen to go dim
[14:40] <Jucato> (provided it's installed)
[14:40] <eeanm> ardchoille: but that doesn't jive with what you said... bah whatever
[14:40] <ardchoille> Jucato: launching "kdesudo 'kfmclient openProfile filemanagement /root'" launches konqueror but with locks on everything, I can't change anything. And /root/.kde/* is nothing but symlinks (no /root/.kde/share)
[14:41] <spiroo> Does anybody know, I think if not sure that it is a hardware problem. Anyway my monitor when I restart sometimes blinks and does not boot OS. Then I wait for awhile and then it works, some kind of overheat I guess somewhere. And sometimes when I watch on movies, the monitor just freeze the image or everything. Then I just have to shut the power off and restart, and the boot problem there again. Very dran annoying. Is
[14:41] <spiroo> there something wrong with my power supply as someone has said before?
[14:41] <Jucato> ardchoille: lemme check. gutsy I presume?
[14:41] <ardchoille> Jucato: yes, Gutsy
[14:42] <spiroo> I wanna know if it is my monitor or something else like Power Supply is getting problem?
[14:43] <nosrednaekim> spiroo: maybe your graphics card is overheating?
[14:43] <spiroo> Or if it could be a bug in Kubuntu/Ubuntu Core maybe.
[14:44] <ysma> hello, I'm having troubles with X incorrectly "detecting" screen DPI on Gutsy
[14:44] <spiroo> nosrednaekim: Naa I do not think so, not quite convincing that it could be. My graphic card is quite new. Could it be my CPU or something like it, it sounds a lot when it happens, or it could be power supply too.
[14:45] <boguh> how can i use compiz with kubuntu?
[14:45] <ardchoille> !compiz | boguh
[14:45] <ubotu> boguh: 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
[14:45] <spiroo> I think when I reboot my Power Supply sometimes does not stabalize the Grpahic Card to send signals to monitor or something like it.
[14:45] <ysma> the strange part is that am able to have a working display only when I kill kdm from the terminal and launch it with startx
[14:46] <nosrednaekim> spiroo: just cause ts new doesn't mean it can't overheat! what type of card is it?
[14:46] <Jucato> ardchoille: all confirmed. now the problem is, I don't know if it's an intended behavior.
[14:47] <spiroo> nosrednaekim: It is a Nvidia Geforce 7950 GT
[14:47] <nosrednaekim> spiroo: does it have a fan on it?
[14:47] <spiroo> nosrednaekim: Yes
[14:47] <ardchoille> Jucato: What do you get when you launch: kdesudo 'kfmclient openProfile filemanagement /root'
[14:48] <Jucato> same as you. locked .kde
[14:48] <ardchoille> Ah, ok
[14:48] <spiroo> nosrednaekim: I do not think the problem is the Graphic Card, not the hardware anyway. Maybe something else.
[14:48] <ardchoille> Jucato: ty :)
[14:48] <Jucato> and yes, everything in /root/.kde  are symlinks. as they should be I think
[14:49] <nosrednaekim> spiroo: ok then.... but don't rule that out.
[14:49] <strebski> Hello friends! Does anyone knows something about official ubuntu packages of openoffice 2.3 for (k)Ubuntu 7.04?
[14:49] <ardchoille> Jucato: But they weren't symlinks in Feisty, I think that change is due to kdesuo
[14:49] <spiroo> nosrednaekim: huh? "rule that out"?
[14:49] <Jucato> prolly
[14:50] <ardchoille> I'm glad I brought it up, for a moment there I thought my system was screwed.
[14:50] <thomax_> strebski: what about them?
[14:50] <strebski> there will be available? :)
[14:51] <thomax_> uhm no idea, they are present in 7.10 repository
[14:51] <strebski> yes, i know that...
[14:52] <thomax_> strebski: try downloading them there and install them manually
[14:52] <strebski> but i'm looking for ooo 2.3 for 7.04 :)
[14:52] <strebski> from 7.10 reposidory?
[14:52] <thomax_> should work fine as it is java
[14:52] <thomax_> jep
[14:52] <strebski> ok, i'll try, great thanks!
[14:52] <ardchoille> strebski: It's a bad idea to mix repos, if that's what you had in mind.
[14:53] <strebski> nope, i will only dl packages from 7.10 repository (on www)
[14:54] <strebski> and try... :)
[14:54] <ardchoille> strebski: I think you'll end up in dependency hell
[14:54] <strebski> hmm
[14:54] <strebski> whats what is your idea?
[14:54] <strebski> upgrade to 7.10?
[14:55] <ardchoille> That's what I would do before using 7.10 apps in 7.04
[14:55] <ardchoille> Or just be happy with the OO.o in 7.04 ?
[14:56] <randy> gusty upgrade error: been sitting at preparing to configure libexpat1 and got two error boxes about debconf and x11-common. What do I do now. Been stalled for over 2 hours
[14:56] <thomax_> ardchoille: or go to ooo site and download an manually install it
[14:57] <nosrednaekim> randy: kill it and restart from the command line
[14:57] <randy> norednakim, how do it restart it?
[14:57] <strebski> is there a big difference between ooo from ubuntu repository and from official ooo website?
[14:57] <ardchoille> thomax_: that's an idea too
[14:57] <nosrednaekim> randy: "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade"
[14:58] <randy> Thank you, I will try that.

[15:18] <BluesKaj> wathek_, hmm, the only thing I can suggest is to try to configure K3B
[15:19] <wathek_> BluesKaj: how N?
[15:19] <nosrednaekim> Daisuke_Laptop: I think its in the fstab
[15:20] <Daisuke_Laptop> tune2fs is what it was :s
[15:20] <baudthief> ok, I just upgraded to Gutsy and nothing broke (thank god!) However, compiz-fusion wasn't installed by default, I had to install it myself
[15:21] <BluesKaj> wathek , open K3B/settings/configure K3B
[15:21] <baudthief> How do I start it?
[15:21] <Jucato> baudthief: that's normal. compiz was never installed by default on Kubuntu
[15:21] <Jucato> !compiz | baudthief
[15:21] <ubotu> baudthief: 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
[15:21] <baudthief> ahh, thanks!
[15:22] <baudthief> went to the trouble of backing up EVERYTHING onto 6 dvd's lol (just in case the upgrade broke my install)
[15:22] <Daisuke_Laptop> tune2fs -c max-mount-counts
[15:22] <Daisuke_Laptop> for anyone who's wondering
[15:22] <Daisuke_Laptop> bye!
[15:25] <nosrednaekim> cya Daisuke_Laptop
[15:25] <baudthief> Jucato: damn, not working :(
[15:26] <baudthief> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/42908/
[15:27] <baudthief> I've got a nvidia 7600GS which ran fine under beryl about an hour ago
[15:28] <icewaterman> baudthief: my condolences :)
[15:28] <baudthief> meh
[15:31] <nosrednaekim> baudthief: whats glxinfo giving you?
[15:31] <baudthief> I get this over and over: Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
[15:31] <baudthief> (also in #compiz-fusion, they said I need to get a new driver)
[15:32] <nosrednaekim> baudthief: are you using the one in restricted-manager?
[15:32] <Black_Monkey> hi, any idea if kde4 beta4 is gonna be in the gutsy repos soon?
[15:32] <baudthief> nosrednaekim: Before upgrading to gutsy, I used the restricted drivers from nvidias website
[15:32] <emilsedgh_> Black_Monkey: if you have a good connection, compile it yourself, thats easy
[15:32] <baudthief> whether or noth thats changed now, I'm not sure
[15:33] <nosrednaekim> baudthief: there is your problem :) you need to reinstall it since you did a kernel upgrade
[15:33] <Black_Monkey> emilsedgh_: my connection is a bit erratic, really need to get a new router...
[15:33] <baudthief> nosrednaekim: any issues with installing the driver on nvidias website? or is there something special I need for gutsy lol
[15:33] <emilsedgh_> Black_Monkey: youre on dialup?
[15:34] <emilsedgh_> Black_Monkey: if no, thats not a problem
[15:34] <Black_Monkey> no, broadband
[15:34] <nosrednaekim> baudthief: its probably easier to install them with the restricted-manager in system-settings
[15:35] <babeck> Does anyone know if there is any plans to release KDE 4 Beta 4 packages on Kubuntu?
[15:36] <nosrednaekim> babeck: there are.
[15:36] <Black_Monkey> nosrednaekim: any sort of idea when?
[15:37] <nosrednaekim> Black_Monkey: probably soon, Riddel was saying something about the build system being slow, prbably the gigantic merges.
[15:38] <Black_Monkey> kk

[16:11] <dergringo> Hi
[16:12] <bazhang> hi!
[16:12] <dergringo> Does anybody know a repo that offers cdemu for gutsy?
[16:12] <bazhang> what does cdemu do?
[16:12] <ardchoille> bazhang: Yes, I think that is it
[16:12] <intern> I installed xubuntu-desktop from kubuntu, how do I switch over?
[16:12] <dergringo> bazhang: http://cdemu.sourceforge.net/
[16:13] <bazhang> intern: in the log in screen, you will something marked session; click on it and choose xfce
[16:13] <intern> thanks
[16:14] <bazhang> dergringo: mplayer will do that --watch a bin/cue file.
[16:14] <ben__> hey all
[16:14] <bazhang> heya
[16:15] <ardchoille> bazhang: so it's "ubuntu teams" I need to join?
[16:15] <ben__> i cant mount my ext3 partitions in kubuntu gutsy
[16:15] <ben__> i get the hal-storage-fixed-mount refused uid 1000 error
[16:15] <bazhang> ardchoille: not sure, will check.

[16:17] <ben__> any ideas?
[16:17] <Black_Monkey> I just put in a cd, and it caused my computer to be completely unresponsive, and after rebooting, amarok still won't load, and freezes any program using it when I try to load it :/
[16:17] <ben__> anyone...
[16:18] <bazhang> patience ben__
[16:18] <dergringo> bazhang: I've seen it. I just try to avoid self compiling as long as possible. So I found Kiso in the repos, it'll do the job
[16:18] <ben__> thanks

[16:20] <unf> hello
[16:21] <unf> im havin some problems installind kde4 from the repositories
[16:21] <bazhang> W8TAH|Class: you need to enable the repositories in adept, then fetch updates--alternately, you can go to medibuntu and they have very explicit instructions on how to get that going.
[16:21] <unf> i follow the instructions in kubuntu.org, but it didnt work. i dont have kde.desktop nor startkde in kde4 directory
[16:22] <W8TAH|Class> bazhang: ok --
[16:22] <W8TAH|Class> im searching the wiki for it mediabuntu and not getting hits that are useful

[16:30] <Jucato> thomas__: this isn't really the place for learing HTML
[16:30] <bazhang> ben__: is it the disk you are using now?
[16:30] <Jucato> you can try #ubuntu-offtopic or #kubuntu-offtopic or ##web (not sure if they entertain those questions in the last one)
[16:30] <bazhang> or a second internal disk?
[16:31] <bazhang> can he pm me Jucato?
[16:31] <ben__> yes, the partions that i am trying to mount are on the disk i am currently using
[16:31] <ben__> my ntfs partition that does mount is on another HD
[16:32] <bazhang> ben__: you want to resize the partition?
[16:32] <thomas_> did I laggout ?
[16:33] <bazhang> yup
[16:33] <ben__> i just want to mount my ext3's
[16:33] <thomas_> and I have 4 pictures. I have a table, 3 pictures are horizontally aligned on one row and I have the one picture that I want to align on the second row, but it doesn't align to center....I don't know whats wrong
[16:33] <bazhang> thomas_ pm me
[16:33] <ben__> do i need to resize something?
[16:34] <thomas_> bazhang: shoot, I'm trying, I thought I registered but for some reason today I can't do it
[16:35] <bazhang> google html cheatsheet
[16:36] <bazhang> ben__: if you want to reclaim that drive space for your current partition then I believe so
[16:36] <ben__> no i dont want to do that
[16:36] <ben__> i have 2 other distros i want to keep
[16:36] <ben__> on those partitions
[16:36] <Jucato> bazhang: sure. we have no control over pm's ;)
[16:37] <bazhang> thanks!
[16:37] <bazhang> ben__: and they are not showing up in your grub list?
[16:37] <ben__> i just want to mount them, and everytime i try i get that error...
[16:37] <ben__> yeah they are
[16:37] <ben__> i can boot into them
[16:38] <ben__> i just cant mount them in kubuntu
[16:38] <bazhang> got me there ben__
[16:39] <ben__> ugh...kubuntu is crap if it cant even mount my other linux partitions...
[16:39] <ben__> and nobody seems to have any answers
[16:39] <ben__> for this problem
[16:40] <ben__> i'll try making a forum post i guess
[16:40] <bazhang> ben__: there are answers. just the experts are not here right now.
[16:40] <bazhang> they'll sort you in no time. sorry not to be of any help.
[16:40] <ben__> k, thanks for your help!
[16:40] <[ifr0g]> i got 2 linux part and both ways are mounted, so its not kubuntu.
[16:41] <[ifr0g]> what error did he get ?
[16:41] <bazhang> right. what distros were on the other partitions:linspire and xandros? :}

[17:09] <W8TAH|Class> nicely done
[17:09] <sparr_w> I am using compiz-fusion, emerald, kde, and kicker-compiz.  sometimes when i switch windows and/or desktops, a window will appear on the wrong desktop on the pager.  the problem rectifies itself as soon as i switch to another window or desktop.  Is there an explanation for this behavior?
[17:09] <Jucato> 2 minutes late though... dang I'm getting slow..
[17:10] <bazhang> haha not at all
[17:10] <drama1981> so i did sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop so can have kde and gnome but now i have what appears to be the entire contents of kcontrol under apps/other under gnome. is there anyway to fix this? a logical reason why it ended up like that?
[17:10] <|Toad> can someone help me with lame in k3b?
[17:11] <Jucato> !someone
[17:11] <ubotu> A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?

[17:12] <snake_> does anyone know why the servers are down ??
[17:12] <|Toad> when i try to rip to mp3, it gives me an error, but the error only lists the burner and it's specs, but when i rip ot wav or ogg, it works fine
[17:12] <[ifr0g]> |Toad, sudo apt-get install k3b-mp3

[17:13] <Jucato> (which is still the wrong package...)
[17:13] <snake_> can anyone give me the default repos ??
[17:14] <snake_> because i am trying to update but no server is working
[17:14] <snake_> i tried with all of them

[17:15] <|Toad> Jucato:  i didn't know konqueror could rip
[17:15] <Jucato> |Toad: now you know :)
[17:15] <|Toad> where is it?
[17:15] <[ifr0g]> Jucato, ah, yes
[17:15] <Jucato> |Toad: type audiocd:/ in Konqueror's location bar
[17:15] <Jucato> [ifr0g]: still the wrong package :)
[17:16] <|Toad> when i type audiocd:/ i get a could not read error
[17:16] <Jucato> hm...
[17:16] <bazhang> what is the lame package--I can't stand the suspense :}
[17:16] <Jucato> |Toad: anyway, do you have lame installed?

[17:17] <bazhang> thanks Jucato
[17:17] <bazhang> :}
[17:17] <Jucato> this one is only for burning mp3s as audio cd's
[17:17] <unf> im havin some problems installind kde4 from the repositories, i followed the instructions in kubuntu.org, but it didnt work. i dont have kde.desktop nor startkde in kde4 directory.. any idea?
[17:18] <ubuntu_> how can you help me to set up wifi_
[17:18] <ubuntu_> ?
[17:18] <Jucato> !wireless | ubuntu_
[17:18] <ubotu> ubuntu_: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[17:18] <|Toad> damn, i had something from lame installed, but not hte encoder
[17:19] <|Toad> i feel like such a retard running linux after boing in windows for so long
[17:19] <Jucato> well you need lame to rip cd's to mp3 :)
[17:19] <|Toad> well, it showed in in hte k3b list, so i thought i had it installed already
[17:19] <[ifr0g]> Amarok : Insert your CD, then click on "Play Audio CD" in the menu. The File-Browser will come up and show a tree with several folders. For normal ripping, go to the "wav" folder, select some tracks and drag them to the desired destination in a Konqueror window. For automatic encoding, drag files from the "mp3" or "ogg" folder instead.
[17:19] <Jucato> still needs lame though :)
[17:20] <[ifr0g]> CD-ripping (amarok) requires the "AudioCD KIO-slave" to be installed. It is part of KDE-Multimedia.
[17:20] <Jucato> (which should be installed by default afaik....)
[17:21] <[ifr0g]> Nope, not installed here on a fresh install.
[17:21] <bazhang> I had to add it too
[17:21]  * genii hands Jucato a coffee and sips one himself
[17:22] <Jucato> genii: I have to pass. about to sleep in 5 minutes
[17:22] <Jucato> really? weird...
[17:22] <Jucato> !rip
[17:22] <ubotu> To rip an Audio CD in KDE, put it in and then put audiocd:// in the Konqueror URL bar; it's configurable in system settings. Also see http://tinyurl.com/2x7qsh
[17:22] <genii> Ah OK
[17:22] <[ifr0g]> !grip
[17:22] <ubotu> grip is a ripping player and has a minor bug which can be solved by doing this "sudo ln -s /dev/hdX /dev/cdromN" where X is your hard drive and N a number
[17:23] <[ifr0g]> Gosh, there are too many ways..
[17:23]  * Jucato fires up vbox to verify...
[17:23] <drama1981> so i did sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop so can have kde and gnome but now i have what appears to be the entire contents of kcontrol under apps/other under gnome. is there anyway to fix this? a logical reason why it ended up like that?
[17:23] <ubuntu_> how can I find information about set up wifi in kubuntu?
[17:23] <sub[t]rnl> use the link Jucato gave you
 ubuntu_: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[17:24] <Dr_Willis> drama1981:  its possible you may want to set some kde settings under gnome.
[17:24] <ubuntu_> thank you
[17:24] <Dr_Willis> its getting these days  theres so much stuff in the menus...
[17:25] <Jucato> [ifr0g], bazhang: kdemultimedia-kio-plugins is installed by default on a Kubuntu system
[17:25] <drama1981> Dr_Willis:  ok ty. that makes sense. it was just strange because it wasnt that way in fiesty plus i thought i would just get one entry that says kcontrol enstead of an entry for each setting
[17:25] <onialb> can someone help me with an adept problem because i try to select best server but it doesnt check the servers. maybe theres a problem with the internet connection. i am connected and i have configured the dns in resolv.conf but adept stays at 0% waiting
[17:26] <Alonea> Dr_Willis: I gotta ask.  I can't get into it half the time. Says process is already being used type thing
[17:27] <Dr_Willis> Got my Degree in Loveology.
[17:27] <Dr_Willis> :)
[17:27] <Dr_Willis> I always just install/use synaptic .. adept has issues.
[17:27] <bazhang> !aptfix
[17:27] <ubotu> If an APT front-end crashed and your database is locked, try this in a !terminal: « sudo fuser -vki /var/lib/dpkg/lock;sudo dpkg --configure -a »
[17:27] <Alonea> sub[t]rnl: well, unless Dr_Willis is a sexy nurse, not much for me to fall for.
[17:28] <sub[t]rnl> hehe
[17:28] <drama1981> like i get adblock, audio cd's, audio encoding, browser id, cdrom info, ect,ect. each as a seperate entry thats why it struck me as strange. its not a big deal though i can live with that was jsut curious i guess
[17:28] <onialb> can someone help me with an adept problem because i try to select best server but it doesnt check the servers. maybe theres a problem with the internet connection. i am connected and i have configured the dns in resolv.conf but adept stays at 0% waiting
[17:29] <Dr_Willis> drama1981:  cant say that vive seen that. But the menus are generated i belive from allthe .desktop entrys in the proper dirs. So may just be how they are laid out.
[17:29] <Alonea> bazhang: hopefully that will fix it...it does it all the time.
[17:29] <bazhang> Alonea: hope so too
[17:30] <drama1981> Dr_Willis:  thats true. at first i didnt know what they all were then i opened a few of em and i was like ok thats kcontrol all split up instead of being in one program
[17:30] <onialb> can someone help me with an adept problem because i try to select best server but it doesnt check the servers. maybe theres a problem with the internet connection. i am connected and i have configured the dns in resolv.conf but adept stays at 0% waiting
[17:30] <Alonea> bazhang: well, its unlocked, but whether it stays that way is another question. *glares at computer*
[17:31] <bazhang> drama1981: sounds like the kbfx menu (replacement for kmenu)
[17:31] <drama1981> aside from that though my menus seem way more organized than they did in fiesty so thats a plus:)
[17:32] <bazhang> Alonea: had that problem early on, then just seemed to go away--no idea why though :}
[17:32] <Alonea> bazhang: sounds about right. in the terminal it complained a bit about java and I told it to bite me...
[17:33] <drama1981> bazhang:  umm it might me idk i just thought it was kcontrol. when ever i open any of them it says configure-kde control module at the top
[17:33] <bazhang> Alonea: which java?
[17:33] <matthias__> problem with microphone/sb5.1: hearing myself through boxes (without delay, think no acoustic feedback), independent on running programs
[17:34] <Alonea> bazhang: sun-java6. I gotta have sun for eclipse. that GCJ or whatever it is, should die a painful death
[17:34] <bazhang> drama1981: it surely is kcontrol, just split up
[17:34] <bazhang> Alonea: ok. the non sun one causes serious probs
[17:35] <Alonea> bazhang: yeah, why are they putting it as default in gusty?
[17:35] <drama1981> thats what i though. oh well though im just thrilled im machine works smoothly and my menus arent a total mess like they were when i did it in fiesty (apps not working, in the wrong categories ect) :)
[17:35] <|Toad> crap, he just lefp
[17:35] <Dr_Willis> drama1981:  in the kde menus some where - they are all split up also. :) since they are seperate apps. the kcontroll thing just sort of merges them under one launcher
[17:36] <bazhang> Alonea: not sure, but it should roast in the hot place
[17:37] <drama1981> Dr_Willis:  ahh ic. ive never noticed it before but then i dont do much in kde myself my gf uses kde more than i do
[17:37] <Alonea> bazhang: indeed. Sun is our friend.
[17:38] <matthias__> problem with microphone/sb5.1: hearing myself through boxes (without delay, think no acoustic feedback), independent on running programs
[17:38] <bazhang> Alonea: no doubt. :}
[17:38] <ubuntu_> how can I find manual of kubuntu?
[17:38] <drama1981> another question. any clue why the usplash (boot splash) isnt set correctly? i had to manually change it
[17:38] <bazhang> kubuntu.org?
[17:40] <W8TAH|Class> ive been doing the reading suggested earlier etc re: medibuntu and non free vs free software etc.  what do i need to enable youtube video to play?
[17:41] <bazhang> W8TAH|Class: that would be the partner repos in adept
[17:41] <W8TAH|Class> ok -- cool
[17:41] <W8TAH|Class> what should i be installing out of them -- its flash player, right?
[17:42] <frojnd> any other suggestions why I can't get back to login screen after I've installed ati restricted drivers and also xserver-xgl (I have mobility x1400) ??
[17:42] <bazhang> W8TAH|Class: then install the flash non-free plugin for Firefox? or Konqueror?
[17:42] <W8TAH|Class> ok -- cool
[17:42] <W8TAH|Class> thanks
[17:42] <drama1981> frojnd: you mean x isnt working your stick in a shell?
[17:42] <bazhang> W8TAH|Class: be sure to fetch updates before adding the kde-restricted package
[17:42] <bazhang> err installing
[17:42] <Dr_Willis> !info kubuntu-restricted-extras
[17:42] <ubotu> kubuntu-restricted-extras: Commonly used restricted packages. In component multiverse, is optional. Version 10 (gutsy), package size 3 kB, installed size 32 kB
[17:43] <frojnd> drama1981, sord of I mean there is a menu for login name and password but it newer won't come back. So I'm forced to backup my xorg.conf
[17:43] <bazhang> oops
[17:43] <methods> anyone try google desktop ?
[17:43] <letalis> have the framebuffer console bugs been fixed since the beta?
[17:43] <W8TAH|Class> bazhang: not a problem
[17:44] <Dr_Willis> i find google desktop annoying under windowes. :) hate to try it under linux . Heh
[17:44] <bazhang> W8TAH|Class: and get miro as well--to save youtube
[17:44] <Dr_Willis> Picassa works decenmtly well under linux for me
[17:44] <drama1981> frojnd: ok best thing i can say is to reconfigure x. sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[17:44] <Dr_Willis> I haventy got Miro working yet under Ubuntu.
[17:44] <Dr_Willis> !miro
[17:44] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about miro - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[17:44] <drama1981> then sudo /etc/init.d/kdm restart
[17:44] <methods> idk man it installed and i only really have a search box... i mean its up to you how you setup gd... i like some of their widgets....
[17:45] <bazhang> miro and miro-data, or democracyplayer
[17:45] <Dr_Willis> when kde4 gets out.. the widget world will get tossed on its head. :)
[17:45] <Dr_Willis> heh
[17:45] <Dr_Willis> !find miro
[17:45] <ubotu> Found: miro, miro-data
[17:45] <bazhang> haha
[17:45] <Dr_Willis> well it IS in there. :)
[17:45] <Dr_Willis> i was trying the source
[17:46] <methods> why is that ?
[17:46] <bazhang> can't live without it
[17:46] <Alonea> what do you do if you need to kill a process, but it says I don't have permissions? (on the ctrl+Esc thing)
[17:47] <Dr_Willis> Alonea:  use the shell and 'sudo kill PID' of the process
[17:47] <methods> Dr_Willis:  ?
[17:47] <Alonea> Dr_Willis: alright. the pid is the 4 digit number?
[17:47] <Dr_Willis> Alonea:  yep.
[17:47] <Dr_Willis> ps ax | grep PROGRAMNAME   is normally how i get the pid.
[17:48] <Dr_Willis> if it has a gui/window showing you may want to try the 'xkill' command
[17:48] <methods> whats gonna happend in k4 ?
[17:48] <bazhang> where is the character after ps aux located?
[17:49] <frojnd> drama1981, I have laptop and tehre are some settigs for mice: /dev/input/mice, /dev/psaux, /dev/ttyS0, /dev/tts0, /dev/gpmdata, what should I choose if I had laptop and I use laptop mice ?
[17:49] <bazhang> ooh. found it!
[17:49] <Alonea> Dr_Willis: alright thanks. that worked and now Eclipse will load rightr
[17:49] <Dr_Willis> its possible the program left som e sort of lock file somewhere.
[17:49] <thomas_newbie_> we don't have nautilus in ubuntu right?
[17:49] <Dr_Willis> Ive never used Eclipse
[17:50] <Dr_Willis> the gnome file manager is nautilus
[17:50] <thomas_newbie_> because I want to enable my trash can
[17:50] <bazhang> dolphin and konqueror thomas_newbie_
[17:50] <Dr_Willis> You can have a trashcan on the panel

[17:55] <Dr_Willis> Alonea:   that was an answer to thomas_newbie_  :)
[17:55] <gerro> when you install k3b for first time it asks about installing some sort of plugin to handle audio cds
[17:55] <gerro> what is that plugin?
[17:55] <thomas_newbie_> Dr_Willis: i want the trash can on my desktop though
[17:56] <gerro> if someone minds reinstalling k3b for me and finding out I would much appreciate it :)
[17:56] <Dr_Willis> thomas_newbie_:  good luck. I normally remove all icons from my desktop. I find the trashcan there to be useelss.. since its always covered up. :)
[17:56] <Dr_Willis> thomas_newbie_:  theres some settings somewhere for that.
[17:56] <thomas_newbie_> Dr_Willis: yea can't find it :S
[17:57] <bazhang> gerro: do you want to rip CDs to mp3?
[17:57] <Dr_Willis> thomas_newbie_:  im not even in KDE so i cant  look for ya
[17:57] <Alonea> Dr_Willis: yeah..ignore me..hypoglycemic and crashing. in class so thus no food for another hour.
[17:57] <pvdwlaptop> are there KDE4 beta 4 packages for kubuntu ?

[18:09] <gerro> Kr4t05: some sort of ntfs support built into the kernel by default, try doing menuconfig in the kernel source and reviewing what options are selected for file systems
[18:09] <gerro> ah so it is a loadable module in the repository
[18:09] <Kr4t05> gerro: I know read-only support exists.
[18:10] <gerro> you can write to ntfs too
[18:10] <gerro> its pretty stable now
[18:10] <Kr4t05> Nevermind, I have it
[18:11] <b0nn> bazhang: I installed gutsy :)
[18:11] <bazhang> b0nn: yay!

[18:12] <bazhang> b0nn: buy some 4G usb keys and back up this time!

[18:15] <jpatrick> b0nn: hmm, it should be a MUST for all installs :(
[18:15] <b0nn> jpatrick: The problem for the installer is howmuch spac to apportion
[18:16] <b0nn> grr wheres the damn typing tutor!
[18:17] <bazhang> jussi01: in system notifications
[18:17] <b0nn> at any rate, Im finding the kde on gutsy to be better than I thought

[18:38] <dos> in kubuntu is KDE :P
[18:38] <dos> gnome is in ubuntu...
[18:38] <nerino> ok
[18:39] <nerino> when I modify the theme is more difficult then modify only the image of dektop?
[18:40] <Chris7mas> nerino in kde alt+f2 and run kcontrol then go to appearance and style
[18:40] <dos> nerino: you can find everything you want in KControl :P
[18:40] <Chris7mas> and change it from there
[18:40] <Chris7mas> also apt-cache search kde styles and install them
[18:40] <pay> is there somebody who got kde4 beta4 on a kubuntu system running successfully?
[18:41] <Chris7mas> i just have a fresh gutsy install and don't want to mess it :)
[18:41] <pay> :)
[18:41] <flick> i got rid of krfb and using x11vnc now, which works without breaking a sweat
[18:41] <Chris7mas> btw, does anybody know if kde4 will ship in 8.04?
[18:41] <dos> kde4 beta 4? i heard only about beta 3 :/
[18:41] <pay> i think so when will 8.04 be released?
[18:41] <flick> yeah kde4... i'm hoping i'd get it as an update on gutsy?
[18:42] <Chris7mas> it appeared for a couple of days dos
[18:42] <mneisen> hi, I for the fglrx driver to work on my X1600, but still have a 1280x1024 resolution instead of 1680x1050. Could anybody give me a pointer to the solution?

[18:48] <flick> there's an advanced tab in the system settings
[18:48] <Chris7mas> but finally it worked, i don't remember how
[18:48] <nerino> #part Kubuntu
[18:48] <Chris7mas> try with modprobe *
[18:48] <cthomas> chris7mas you mean this is card-related? the driver is snd-intel-hda...
[18:48] <Chris7mas> or install modconf and try to select a driver from there
[18:48] <Chris7mas> i really don't know further more
[18:49] <MarcC> anybody use StyleClock? I made a theme and I'm wondering how I share it out with t3h int3rn3t

[18:51] <Chris7mas> did you try with amixer?
[18:51] <thomas_newbie_> I can't figure out how to get my trash can icon on my KDE desktop

[19:06] <MarcC> sure ScorpKing, that's fine
[19:07] <sddds> ScorpKing: when i disable the quiet splash option the last line it hangs at is:  checking if image is initramfs...
[19:08] <ScorpKing> sddds: did you check if the disk is faulty?
[19:08] <sddds> ScorpKing: before that it says that ioport range 0x400-some number (several lines(has been reserved)
[19:08] <zyp1> koomi,dos,pay: I guess we just have to wait for kde4b4... :-) no idea when...

[19:09] <thomas_newbie_> ScorpKing: what kind of file?
[19:09] <sddds> ScorpKing: how do i find the md5 sum?
[19:09] <b0nn> whats the name of the codec package I need to install for windows codecs?
[19:10] <ScorpKing> thomas_newbie_: text or plain file
[19:10] <ScorpKing> sddds: md5sum <device or file>
[19:11] <thomas_newbie_> ScorpKing: ok that only points to the folder trash:/, and i can't delete off the desktop
[19:11] <sddds> ScorpKing: that's not a valid command within a windows terminal prompt
[19:11] <sddds> ScorpKing: is it?
[19:11] <ScorpKing> sddds: lol. no
[19:12] <ScorpKing> sddds: you will have to download md5sum for windows. google for it
[19:12] <sddds> ScorpKing: that's what i was thinking
[19:13] <flick> help, please, when i apply the Konsole schemes nothing happens.
[19:13] <ScorpKing> thomas_newbie_: i don't understand. that will create a trash icon on the desktop. what can you not delete?
[19:14] <thomas_newbie_> no it creates a text file that links to the trash directory and I from there have to delete the files

[19:18] <UltranOOb> anyone has any idea if this can be done at all??

[19:19] <thomas_newbie_> ScorpKing: so will the files delete after a certain amount of time?

X doesn't correctly detect my screen DPI when it boots up, so I end up with totally unsuseable giant fonts. I found that the --dpi 100 switch solved the problem from the terminal, but now I need to have it working at boot time...

[19:54] <ScorpKing> wesley: find the package and install it with apt-get
[19:54] <doneill_> kalorin: depends, i think that package is a tourist from Debian still
[19:54]  * lg188 going to .........
[19:54] <doneill_> kalorin: if you want to ask the guys responsible, it's probably masters of the universe
[19:54] <kalorin> according to gimp it says ubuntu/debian packages on the download page
[19:54] <doneill_> #ubuntu-motu or somesuch
[19:54] <doneill_> hm
[19:55] <doneill_> let me check here
[19:55] <level1> hi guys, I have school network.  My internet works well on the wifi network, but whenever I'm on the people around me start having problems
[19:55] <ScorpKing> kalorin: then just download it from there and install
[19:55] <level1> is there a way I can check if anything's wrong?
[19:55] <doneill_> still showing 2.2 here, but i'm still on feisty, heh
[19:55] <ScorpKing> same here
[19:56] <doneill_> level1: lots of ways, the best being tcpdump on the router.
[19:56] <doneill_> level1: the first thing i'd check for is an ip conflict
[19:56] <thomas_newbie_> ScorpKing: so I have to install it ey
[19:56] <level1> doneill_: I don't have access to the router, only my own computer
[19:56] <level1> doneill_: how do I do that?
[19:57] <ScorpKing> thomas_newbie_: if you dont have it yes. it's a very nice calculator btw. ;)
[19:57] <doneill_> level1: compare the assigned IP addresses.
[19:57] <doneill_> if they're both x.x.x.12, well, there's your problem.
[19:57] <kalorin> if you pull a package manually and install it, does that mess with the updater or is there any real difference that might mess up anything doing that?
[19:57] <level1> doneill_: you mean between me and my freinds?
[19:57] <kalorin> other than the package was made by someone else so you'd obviously run the risk of them adding something to it or whatever
[19:58] <doneill_> no, between your PC and your friends' PCs.
[19:58] <level1> yeah
[20:00] <level1> its not a conflict
[20:07] <Les_Caesars> how do I make KDE mount my drives on startup?
[20:07] <dr2> how do I check if I am running LILO?
[20:08] <ScorpKing> Les_Caesars: add them to /etc/fstab
[20:08] <kalorin> is there an upgrade path from 7.04 to 7.10?
[20:08] <kalorin> last time the updater said that there were updates available for 6.10 that i was running and it basically worked
[20:08] <kalorin> now i'm not seeing updates really anymore
[20:13] <SalsaDoom> Hi fellas. Anyone ever used Kontact to connect to Citadel/UX?
[20:20] <alexander> can some one help me with a problem in kubuntu
[20:21] <ScorpKing> !ask alexander
[20:21] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ask alexander - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[20:21] <ScorpKing> heh
[20:21] <ScorpKing> !ask
[20:21] <alexander> i cant install kepone
[20:21] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[20:21] <ScorpKing> alexander: what's that?
[20:22] <alexander> sry i mean kopete
[20:22] <ScorpKing> is there a way to make this work on KDE 3.5.6? - http://kde-look.org/content/show.php?content=37188&forumpage=1&PHPSESSID=828c9b01f495a86cbd4fa499b6076ca
[20:22] <SalsaDoom> alexander: how are you trying to install it?
[20:22] <ScorpKing> alexander: why can't you? what is the error?
[20:23] <Strider> hey whats up, im new to linux and just got Kubuntu, but with Compiz for some reason i dont have title bars or anything like that
[20:23] <alexander> i try it by the program add/ remove
[20:23] <Strider> Will someone help me out here?
[20:23] <alexander> but i cant klik it
[20:24] <SalsaDoom> alexander: Ooh right, I know what your talking about. I had that problem with something, I didn't bother to look into it though. Just open a konsole and type "apt-get install kopete" instead
[20:24] <MilesG> !hi | ReMiiRuru
[20:24] <SalsaDoom> Its a bit silly to have to do that, but Kubuntu is a red-headed step child of a distro ;)
[20:24] <ubotu> ReMiiRuru: Hi! Welcome to #kubuntu!
[20:25] <ScorpKing> have fun guys. i'm gone.. :P
[20:25] <Strider> so does anyone know how to fix the title bar issue?
[20:25] <SalsaDoom> Strider: nVidia or ATI?
[20:26] <Strider> nVidia
[20:26] <Strider> i googled it but, none of them were very helpful :-/
[20:26] <SalsaDoom> Strider: I'm not 100% sure, but take a look in your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file and under the "Device" section, see if it has things like "AddARGBVisuals" "True" and "AddARGBGLXVisuals" "True"
[20:28] <largos> I just started using Kmail, and it isn't checking for new messages periodically (I did set the "Enable interval mail checking" checkbox, and specified a time of 5 min in the account settings)
[20:28] <largos> does anyone know what I should check next?
[20:32] <Les_Caesars> Gusty Gibbon came with NTFS write support, right?
[20:33] <Les_Caesars> I can't seem to mount my Windows hard drive
[20:33] <Strider> where would those two lines of text be in xorg.conf, i cant seem to find them
[20:34] <Strider> oh duh, you said
[20:34] <Strider> and yes, those options are set to true
[20:35] <SalsaDoom> Strider: erm, ok. Lets see, your doing this in KDE .. so, do you by chance have emerald installed?
[20:35] <Strider> i have no idea haha, sorry
[20:35] <SalsaDoom> Strider: ok ;) open a konsole and type "apt-get install emerald" and if should say if its installed or not. Install it if its not.
[20:36] <Strider> i get this
[20:36] <Strider> E: Could not open lock file /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (13 Permission denied)
[20:36] <Strider> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), are you root?
[20:37] <SalsaDoom> Strider: close adept or the add remove programs thingy
[20:37] <SalsaDoom> Strider: oh yeah, or prefix the whole thing with sudo. "sudo apt-get install emerald" :)
[20:37] <largos> Strider: you might need to run it as "sudo apt-get install emerald"
[20:37] <SalsaDoom> largos: too slow! :D
[20:37] <largos> SalsaDoom: yup.. had to scrollback for the package name ;)
[20:37] <Strider> ok it worked that time
[20:37] <Strider> what is "sudo"?
[20:38] <largos> Strider: it runs programs as root (the administrator, basically)
[20:38] <SalsaDoom> Strider: its a handy little program to temporarily give you higher permissions, like, to install software or edit system files
[20:38] <Strider> oh ok
[20:38] <Strider> emerald is installed, what now? :)
[20:38] <Les_Caesars> Strider: "Super User DO" It gives you root permissions, which basically means ultimate power
[20:39] <SalsaDoom> Substitute actually.
[20:39] <largos> graphical description: http://xkcd.com/149/
[20:39] <SalsaDoom> Strider: run compiz again :)
[20:39] <alexander> can someone help me to install kopete ( i am a noob in linux)
[20:39] <Les_Caesars> lol @ largos
[20:40] <SalsaDoom> At this point, I feel I should mention that I've never bothered with compiz with kde :)
[20:40] <Strider> this is a stupid question but, run compiz?
[20:40] <SalsaDoom> largos: lol :D
[20:40] <largos> alexander: "sudo aptitude install kopete" should do it.
[20:40] <Strider> just open the advanced desktop settings?
[20:40] <SalsaDoom> Strider: Well, do whatever you did to make the window decorations disappear again :)
[20:41] <largos> Strider: There may be an emerald entry in the K menu somewhere, you could try that
[20:41] <SalsaDoom> Man, there is an advanced desktop settings in kde?
[20:42] <Strider> i disabled all the decorations and what not but, i stil lhave no title bars
[20:42] <flick> when i try to find best sources, the repository manager ends with the message: ASSERT failure in QWidget: "Widgets must be created in the GUI thread."
[20:42] <flick> can anyone else confirm this?
[20:42] <alexander> no candidate version found for kopete
[20:42] <SalsaDoom> Strider: Well, here. Open up a konsole and just type "compiz"
[20:42] <largos> Strider: you could also try logging out /in or starting a new kde session
[20:42] <Cacheaway> 	function iZ($mark) { return $mark->item(0);     }
[20:42] <SalsaDoom> Strider: but you should know, that from what I understand, Kubuntu doesn't really work in the same way as Ubuntu does with compiz
[20:42] <Cacheaway> 	$weather = iZ($doc->getElementsByTagName('weather'))
[20:42] <Cacheaway> :)
[20:43] <Strider> yea, i think ill switch back to ubuntu lol...
[20:43] <SalsaDoom> Strider: If you have no real preference between KDE and Gnome, but you really like desktop effects, go with Ubuntu.
[20:43] <flick> Strider, install compiz-kde
[20:43] <heia> Hi all. Do anybody know how to get myspell to work in the new open office?
[20:43] <Strider> well, i just want to get into Linux lol
[20:43] <flick> install emerald
[20:44] <flick> And then compiz will work with Kubuntu.
[20:44] <flick> sudo apt-get install compiz-kde emerald
[20:44] <alexander> largos  this is what i get "no candidate version found for kopete"
[20:44] <Strider> i have both of the newest versions
[20:45] <SalsaDoom> Strider: listen to flick, I think he knows more about compiz and kubuntu then I do. Since well, I've never really looked it, expect on gentoo about a year ago ;)
[20:45] <dthacker-work> flick: is emerald a theme? or something else?
[20:45] <SalsaDoom> er, except. Anyway.
[20:45] <largos> alexander: take a look at your apt cache (apt-cache search kopete) and see what it says
[20:45] <flick> dthacker-work, emerald is a theme manager afaik
[20:45] <flick> Stider, compiz --replace works?
[20:45] <SalsaDoom> I thought emerald was a window manager.
[20:46] <largos> alexander: and possibly run an update?
[20:46] <SalsaDoom> Because kwin doesn't support any 3d stuff until kde4.
[20:46] <heia> Hi all. Do any body know how to get myspell to work in the new open office?
[20:46] <Strider>   /usr/bin/compiz.real (video) - Warn: No 8 bit GLX pixmap format, disabling YV12 image format
[20:46] <dthacker-work> !emerald
[20:46] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about emerald - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[20:47]  * dthacker-work hugs ubotu anyway
[20:47] <flick> Strider, but compiz works fine with Ubuntu?
[20:47] <Strider> yea
[20:47] <poison--> !emerald
[20:47] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about emerald - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[20:47] <poison--> !compiz
[20:47] <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
[20:49] <Strider> i think ill switch back to ubunty lol...
[20:50] <Strider> ubuntu*
[20:50] <Strider> well im just going to reinstall, ubuntu, thanks for your help everyone!
[20:52] <alexander> largos apt-cahce search kopete he didnt find a thing
[20:53] <dthacker-work> they give up so easily....
[20:54] <alexander> largos$ apt-cahce search kopete he didnt find a thing
[20:54] <earl_> hey guys. anyone know how i can have compiz completely replace kwin?
[20:55] <earl_> i'm not talking about a script in .kde/Autostart
[20:55] <earl_> i want KDE to forget kwin even exists and go straight for compiz, the script just loads up compiz after my lappy is fully booted and just takes forever and is really ugly
[20:56] <earl_> figured i'd ask here before i go to the compiz channel since a fair amount of money says i'll go there and they'll tell me they know nothing about KDE
[20:58] <dthacker-work> earl_: It would seem to me that kwin is not being started if you tell Autostart to fire up compiz.  But I'd have to research that.
[20:58] <earl_> no kwin is being started
[20:58] <earl_> i have kwin window decorators for a second
[20:58] <earl_> then the screen goes black for a few seconds while compiz is loaded
[20:59] <lg188> me back
[21:00] <dthacker-work> time to go home!
[21:00] <KalEl> where is the Theme Manager?
[21:01] <alexander> my kopete gives an error when i tray to log in is there anybody ho knows how to fix it
[21:01] <lg188> wien also is for games ?
[21:01] <lg188> wine*
[21:02] <lg188> wine also for dames suiteabel ?
[21:02] <alexander> my kopete gives an error when i tray to log in is there anybody ho knows how to fix it
[21:03] <wesley> adept is in use by a nother process'
[21:03] <KalEl> where's the theme manager??
[21:06] <wesley> how can i fix that if adept is crased / used by another process?
[21:09] <wesley> how can i fix that if adept is crased / used by another process?
[21:10] <sub[t]rnl> !adept fix
[21:10] <ubotu> If an APT front-end crashed and your database is locked, try this in a !terminal: « sudo fuser -vki /var/lib/dpkg/lock;sudo dpkg --configure -a »
[21:11] <sub[t]rnl> KalEl: kcontrol -> Appearance & Themes -> Theme Manager
[21:11] <KalEl> sub[t]rnl, thanks! i was just giving up
[21:12] <KalEl> :)
[21:13] <alexander> dous anybidy knows where i can change ma kdewallet code
[21:13] <Les_Caesars> alexander: not immediately, but I'll see if I can figure it out
[21:14] <alexander> thx
[21:14] <alexander> its beques you need the code for poete
[21:14] <alexander> and i dont have it
[21:15] <Les_Caesars> poete?
[21:15] <Les_Caesars> kopete?
[21:15] <alexander> yes
[21:15] <alexander> kopete sry
[21:16] <Les_Caesars> sorry, lol. I wasn't sure whether you were mixing French w/ Engilsh or deliberately changing the spelling of stuff
[21:16] <alexander> and than kopete craches if i try to log in to msn
[21:17] <Les_Caesars> well, for KDEwallet, I can only find a way to make a new wallet... but that's ONLY in just the iconified program
[21:18] <Les_Caesars> let me google around. It may not be possible to. I imagine that all of your passwords are encrypted, and it wouldn't surprise me if your password was the encryption key
[21:18] <Les_Caesars> and, in that case you couldn't change it, unless if the program unencrypted and re-encrypted the whole thing
[21:18] <sub[t]rnl> alexander: are you using gutsy?
[21:19] <alexander> whats gutsy
[21:19] <Les_Caesars> Alex, I have the answer:
[21:19] <Les_Caesars> alexander: LEFT click on the wallet icon
[21:19] <alexander> yes?
[21:19] <Les_Caesars> is there a wallet icon there?
[21:19] <Les_Caesars> well, if there is, click on it
[21:19] <Les_Caesars> then, a window will come up w/ an icon of a wallet
[21:20] <Les_Caesars> right click on the wallet that is yours. It's probably the only wallet there.
[21:20] <Les_Caesars> then, "change password" should be an option
[21:20] <alexander> i dony have a wallet icon
[21:20] <Les_Caesars> ok. Just a minute
[21:20] <Les_Caesars> do you need to change the password because you forgot it, or what?
[21:20] <alexander> i never set it
[21:21] <alexander> i just want that kopete works
[21:21] <Les_Caesars> or do you need to change a password within it
[21:21] <sub[t]rnl> kwalletmanager from konsole will open it.  Update your kdelibs to stop kopete from crashing
[21:21] <Les_Caesars> oh, hm.
[21:21] <birdowner> Hi
[21:21] <Les_Caesars> alexander: exactly what sub[t]rnl said. Hit Alt+F2 and enter kwalletmanager to get the icon
[21:23] <ubuntu__> yello
[21:25] <Les_Caesars> hey, is there a way I can make compiz start SOONER? It's very annoying having to see my KDE desktop, then to see the screen go black, and have the desktop show up again.
[21:28]  * DarthWar is away: Gone away for now.
[21:28] <sub[t]rnl> Les_Caesars: try export KDEWM="compiz --replace" in your ~/.bashrc
[21:29] <mike-kubuntu> hey, where can i find the emerald-themes package, the fetch themes option doesnt work from emerald-theme-manager
[21:29] <Vermux> how do I kill a process? I tried kill ProcessName and PID -doesnt work
[21:29] <alexander> thank you guys Kopete works
[21:32] <Les_Caesars> sub[t]rnl: sorry, I just -now- got your message. How do I "export" the line into it? Is it just like adding a line in anything else?
[21:32] <Les_Caesars> sub[t]rnl: like fstab
[21:32] <sub[t]rnl> yeah, edit it
[21:32] <sub[t]rnl> then add the export line
[21:34] <jerware> hi

[21:50] <tekteen> Anyone know how to write spanish accents with a english keyboard?
[21:50] <jerware> is that speciffic to nVidia?
[21:50] <jerware> (which was my previoius card)

[21:51] <jerware> well if anything goes wrong i'll just go back and select it.
[21:51] <sub[t]rnl> er, glx is openGL for x-windows
[21:52] <When_I_Was> Hi. I just installed Kubuntu today, and I'm looking for a virtual cd rom drive program.
[21:52] <When_I_Was> I used to use Daemon Tools on Windows.
[21:52] <Q-collective> mount -o loop?
[21:52] <tekteen> Anyone know how to write spanish accents in kubuntu
[21:53] <Q-collective> When_I_Was: read man mount and read about the loop device and howto use it
[21:53] <tekteen> When_I-Was: u also need to use sudo
[21:53] <tekteen> (to be root)
[21:53] <When_I_Was> I read online that it won't mount bin/cue files, or mdf
[21:53] <Daisuke_Laptop> correct and correct.
[21:54] <Daisuke_Laptop> nothing else will do it either
[21:54] <Daisuke_Laptop> your options are...  convert to iso
[21:54] <Q-collective> there are simple scripts that convert these images to iso images
[21:54] <yakuzi> does anyone knows what can be the source of an error by Kdesu? because i get an error everytime i boot my laptop..
[21:54]  * Daisuke_Laptop tries to remember the one he used...
[21:54] <When_I_Was> Ok, that'll work. Thank you very much.
[21:54] <Daisuke_Laptop> oh yeah...  acetoneiso
[21:54] <yakuzi> and i got this eror after i played around with compiz-fusion, i removed it already (exact the same packages as i installed)
[21:54] <sub[t]rnl> tovid > *
[21:55] <sub[t]rnl> yakuzi: whats the error?
[21:55] <yakuzi> it's something with it has to close kdesu because some argument is missing
[21:56] <Daisuke_Laptop> you're gonna have to come a little more specific than that
[21:57] <yakuzi> the thin is, i didn't write the error down...and i have it only after booting my laptop :s
[21:57] <yakuzi> *thing
[21:59] <jerware> sub[t]rnl:  to safely restart X with out having to reboot the machine, ctrl-F2; startx correct?
[22:00] <sub[t]rnl> sudo /etc/init.d/kdm restart
[22:01] <sub[t]rnl> or just kmenu-> logout, then alt + e
[22:04] <Les_Caesars> sub[t]rnl: I added the line (KDEWM="compiz --replace") into the bashrc, but I don't know whether it did anything or not. It runs compizicon automatically, but there aren't any programs in .kde/Autostart. Where else is KDE's autostart?
[22:05] <sub[t]rnl> its running compiz automatically because your setting the window manager to compiz instead of kwin in your environment
[22:05] <sub[t]rnl> did that help your black screen problem at all?
[22:06] <Les_Caesars> sub[t]rnl: well, my desktop shows up, turns black (for a very long time), and then shows up again w/ compiz up.
[22:06] <Les_Caesars> sub[t]rnl: no unfortunately. I think that it's possibly reloading compiz
[22:06] <skeet> hey everyone i have a prob i am tryin to get beryl running on my kubuntu desktop but i dont think that i can do it
[22:07] <skeet> i used to have ubuntu but then i switched to kubuntu cause i like it better
[22:07] <sub[t]rnl> Les_Caesars: the black flash is a common deal, I still havn't got it ironed out on my box.
[22:07] <sub[t]rnl> but its only a quick blip on my monitor
[22:07] <sub[t]rnl> I've read some posts about it, I'll see if i can dig one up
[22:07] <skeet> when i had ubuntu i also had beryl but i dont know anything about kubuntu
[22:08] <yakuzi> i'm going to try to reproduce the error by loging out and relogin... see if it pops up again
[22:08] <skeet> so if someone could help i would appreciate it a bunch
[22:08] <Les_Caesars> sub[t]rnl: it's a rather long wait for me. In gnome, it works as soon as I see the screen. I don't care if it takes longer to load up everything first and then show me. I just don't want to be teased by the screen.
[22:08] <Les_Caesars> *see the desktop
[22:09] <sub[t]rnl> yeah, compiz-fusion was designed for gnome

[22:49] <ardchoille> I bought a new music cd and want to rip the tracks to mp3. What is the best way to do that in kubuntu?
[22:49] <BluesKaj> ardchoille, you could use amarok, k3b or soundkonverter
[22:50] <ardchoille> BluesKaj: Ah, thanks
[22:50] <BluesKaj> soundconverter is fast
[22:50] <BluesKaj> err soundkonverter
[22:51] <nhe> hello
[22:52] <Daisuke_Laptop> my personal recommendation
[22:52] <Daisuke_Laptop> ardchoille: wanna see something cool?
[22:52] <Daisuke_Laptop> in konqueror: audiocd:/
[22:52] <Daisuke_Laptop> (audio cd kioslave)
[22:52] <Daisuke_Laptop> then drag the (whatever format you prefer) folder to where you would like it stored.
[22:52] <sub[t]rnl> i use konqueror for ripping and encoding on the fly myself
[22:53] <Daisuke_Laptop> that right there is perhaps the thing that impresses me the most about konqueror
[22:53]  * sub[t]rnl sighs
[22:53] <sub[t]rnl> yeah, can't argue that
[22:53] <sub[t]rnl> it is nice
[22:53] <Les_Caesars> Is there a way I can tell KDE not to load KWIN at startup?
[22:53] <Les_Caesars> and instead load compiz, or metacity, or anything else
[22:53] <Daisuke_Laptop> you want a desktop but no windows?
[22:53] <Daisuke_Laptop> ah
[22:54] <UnknownUniverse> Hi does Kubuntu come with libgtk as default?
[22:54] <nhe> he might want another window manager :x
[22:54] <Daisuke_Laptop> well...  you could add an autostart for dompiz or metacity
[22:54] <Daisuke_Laptop> compiz*
[22:54] <EightyFiveOnline> anyone specialize in ubuntu server?
[22:54] <Daisuke_Laptop> nhe: i caught on
[22:54] <sub[t]rnl> that still loads kwin first though
[22:54] <Daisuke_Laptop> let me look at something
[22:54] <UnknownUniverse> Anyone mind checking if they have libgtk installed by default?
[22:54] <Daisuke_Laptop> it should be
[22:55] <tekteen> EightyFiveOnline: what is the problem
[22:55] <sub[t]rnl> Les_Caesars: that export for KDWIN="compiz" in your .bashrc will load it as default instead of kwin
[22:55] <EightyFiveOnline> i cannot get lamp installed or nething to make it like my http,sql,php server
[22:55] <sub[t]rnl> KDEWM="compiz" rather

[22:56] <Anacrusis> Can somebody help me track down the cause of system lockups?
[22:56] <EightyFiveOnline> yah ive read that and doesnt work
[22:56] <UnknownUniverse> Am I invisible, I'm not demanding much
[22:56] <nhe> I'm running in one laptop (acer 4002 wmli) and in the last version of kubuntu (gutsy) I can't boot properly... I just get a black screen little after kinit goes after an image to resume. Is this a common bug?
[22:56] <nhe> this is after installing from a cd
[22:57] <Sanne> UnknownUniverse: maybe nobody knows. I have libgtk, but I don't know if it got installed with the system
[22:57] <tekteen> UnknownUniverse: I can not check because I might have installed it with a gtk program
[22:57] <UnknownUniverse> Ok
[22:57] <UnknownUniverse> I'll check the forum
[22:57] <Les_Caesars> ok, now how do I make it so that I log out w/o saving my session?
[22:57] <sub[t]rnl> kmenu->system settings-advance-session
[22:58] <EightyFiveOnline> see no help for server out ther
[22:58] <Les_Caesars> thanks sub[t]rnl
[22:58] <Daisuke_Laptop> EightyFiveOnline: this is for #kubuntu, ubuntu server would be #ubuntu at best, as we specialize in *K*ubuntu.
[22:59] <Sanne> EightyFiveOnline: if the page people link to "doesn't work", it would be helpful to knwo what exactly didn't work.
[22:59] <tekteen> anyone know how to use spanish accents in kubuntu
[22:59] <BluesKaj> nhe , perhaps X needs reconfiguring , try to do so using the live cd ...in the konsole, ' sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg '.
[22:59] <Daisuke_Laptop> now, as far as whoever was wanting to start compiz or metacity as kde's default window manager...
[22:59] <Daisuke_Laptop> you *could* potentially edit startkde
[22:59] <nhe> BluesKaj: already did that... got the same thing :\
[23:00] <nhe> I was expecting it would be a common bug but I didn't find anything anywhere :(
[23:01] <BluesKaj> nhe , choose the vesa driver in oder to get a screen
[23:01] <nhe> there is another thing I forgot to say...
[23:01] <nhe> if when I'm with a black screen
[23:01] <Daisuke_Laptop> ah HA!
[23:01] <nhe> i change to another screen (ctrl + alt + F1,2,3) it will start
[23:02] <BluesKaj> nhe, try to get to the tty prompt , ctrl+alt+F1
[23:02] <nhe> if I do that KDM will start normaly :\
[23:03] <nhe> I looked in logs and things like that and I didn't find anything that caught my eye!
[23:03] <garthis> why does firefox look different in gutsy?
[23:03] <marco_> how to seep up KDE?
[23:04] <BluesKaj> nhe, after you get to the tty then reconfig X , but use the vesa driver
[23:04] <ardchoille> Daisuke_Laptop: Whoa! Nice
[23:04] <nhe> instead of ati?
[23:04] <sub[t]rnl> nhe: check /boot/grub/menu.lst and make sure your not passing a vga= in the kernel boot options.  The current kernel and framebuffering are buggy
[23:04] <Minataku> Bored.
[23:04] <Les_Caesars> ok. Well, the bashrc seems to have made things faster... I -think-. Is there just some way that I can make all of my startup programs load BEFORE the desktop shows up?
[23:05] <nhe> I'm in a live cd so I can't see it right now... I'll do that asap (reboot the laptop in a few minutes...)
[23:06] <frojnd> Ok guys. I have installed mobility x1400 somehow. Now When I click on a system -> prefererences ->  appearance ->visual effects extra or any other It says, that it couldn't be loaded. Do i have install some more packages for compiz ??
[23:06] <sub[t]rnl> sounds like you need #ubuntu

[23:07] <sub[t]rnl> Les_Caesars: any time
[23:07] <frojnd> anyone'
[23:07] <BluesKaj> yes nhe, use vesa to get a screen then you use system settings to configure your ati driver , prolly the restricted driver in the advanced tab should work

[23:19] <ardchoille> Daisuke_Laptop: Malformed url

[23:19] <sub[t]rnl> the single #'s in menu.lst get read
[23:19] <skeet> isnt there anyone on this channel that can actually help someone
[23:19] <Daisuke_Laptop> skeet: what do you need?
[23:20] <Daisuke_Laptop> coming in here and blithering about "can anyone help anyone?" isn't getting things done.  if you have an issue, raise it.  if you have a question, ask it.

[23:22] <sub[t]rnl> sudo apt-get install emerald
[23:22] <nhe> do you have an emerald icone in your tray?
[23:23] <Daisuke_Laptop> that's a good first step :)

[23:24] <nhe> if I remove quiet and splash from these options
[23:24] <JimBob> hey folks, if i'm booting from a kubuntu 7.10 dvd how can i tell if it is installing or booting a live image? the menu entry just reads 'start or install' ...
[23:24] <nhe> do I will see more messages?
[23:24] <sub[t]rnl> yup
[23:24] <sub[t]rnl> and the kernel will spit more stuff into your logs
[23:24] <nhe> ok
[23:25] <nhe> I'll remove them
[23:25] <Daisuke_Laptop> JimBob: start or install launches the live environment
[23:25] <skeet> brb
[23:25] <skeet> the emerald thing is done
[23:25] <bjwebb> hm any good linux media player that does music and videos?
[23:25] <Daisuke_Laptop> fromthat live environment you can run the installer (big icon on the desktop, you can't miss it)
[23:25] <JimBob> aaah, I got kinda worried since i only wanted to take a first look at it - thanks
[23:26] <sub[t]rnl> bjwebb: i like mplayer
