[07:13] <Snake> Hey guys, how intrested would this room be in purchasing (k)ubuntu case badges? I'm trying to see if anyone would want any, they would likely be 3 badges for $6
[07:14] <Hawkwind> Badges ?
[07:14] <MilhousePunkRock> Flosoft: http://www.xs4all.nl/~bsamwel/laptop_mode/index.html
[07:14] <Snake> Hawkwind: you know like the things that say "HP" or whatever, or "Intel Inside", they are bubbly, and will have the (k)ubuntu logo
[07:14] <tux_> tux
[07:15] <MilhousePunkRock> Snake: What about shipping to Europe?
[07:15] <Hawkwind> Snake: You have a picture of one ?
[07:15] <Snake> Hawkwind: one second
[07:15] <Flosoft> MilhousePunkRock: so it is enabled by default?
[07:15] <Snake> MilhousePunkRock: I dont know if id be able to do that :-/
[07:15] <Snake> Hawkwind: http://www.3dgameman.com/IMAGES/images_03/3dgameman_case_badge_06.jpg is an example
[07:15] <Hawkwind> Snake: Ah, I wanted to see the actual Kubuntu logo
[07:16] <Snake> Hawkwind: I havnt made any yet, im just seeing if theres any intrest
[07:16] <MilhousePunkRock> Flosoft: I am not sure... Browse through the side, you will find all the info you need there... I found everything I needed there too...
[07:18] <MilhousePunkRock> Flosoft: "Installing them is all you need to do to get laptop mode up and running"
[07:18] <Snake> Hawkwind: I would just use the gears in it, btw
[07:19] <MilhousePunkRock> Is that circle with the three little circles on it supposed to be a gear?
[07:19] <Snake> In the kubuntu logo, yes
[07:20] <Snake> KDE's logo is gears, so they tried to incorperate that into the Ubuntu logo
[07:20] <MilhousePunkRock> Took me months to find out that the Fx icon is a Fox hugging the world... o_O
[07:20] <Snake> LOL
[07:20] <rr72> MilhousePunkRock~ ever look at fedex and see somin?
[07:21] <Snake> rr72: I have!
[07:21] <Snake> :)
[07:21] <rr72> somoene told me about it and now i always see it
[07:21] <rr72> =>
[07:21] <MilhousePunkRock> Snake: If you ever make them, try to figure out how you can get them over the big pond... Wouldn't they fit into a letter?
[07:22] <Snake> MilhousePunkRock: im sure they could, I just dont know anything about international letters and whatnot
[07:22] <Snake> :-)
[07:22] <rr72> snake if u find a site about that kind of stuff i would be VERY interested
[07:22] <MilhousePunkRock> rr72: fedex as in Federal Express? Huh?
[07:22] <rr72> i don't even know what to look  under for google
[07:23] <rr72> yeah their logo look at it carefully
[07:24] <MilhousePunkRock> You call that a logo, rr72? It's just the name, or not?
[07:24] <rr72> snake u think it was intentinal? kinda spooky if it wasnt
[07:24] <rr72> it perfectly fits
[07:24] <rr72> freaks me out sometimes
[07:24] <rr72> how some things just fits
[07:24] <arepie> omg installing driver for my wireless usb is really a big thing..
[07:24] <Snake> lol
[07:25] <rr72> *fit
[07:25] <MilhousePunkRock> rr72: The --> made from the E and the x?
[07:25] <rr72> WOW u got it
[07:25] <Snake> MilhousePunkRock: Could I just send a letter to you like I would to someone in the US?
[07:25] <rr72> MilhousePunkRock~ where r u?
[07:25] <Snake> MilhousePunkRock: or would I need some kind of special postage or something you think?
[07:26] <MilhousePunkRock> Snake: I guess so, it's just a little more expensive... How much is a normal inside US letter?
[07:26] <rr72> idc
[07:26] <Snake> I think 37 cents
[07:26] <rr72> it keeps changing
[07:26] <rr72> u always need 2C stamps incase they raise it
[07:26] <Snake> Heh
[07:26] <rr72> MilhousePunkRock~ where r u?
[07:26] <MilhousePunkRock> lol that's cheap... It'll be like 2 dollars for a letter to Europe I guess...
[07:26] <MilhousePunkRock> rr72: Germany
[07:26] <Snake> Hmmm..
[07:26] <rr72> oh idk
[07:27] <rr72> hawaii is US so still the same amount
[07:27] <rr72> and alaska
[07:27] <rr72> crazy so far yet so close
[07:27] <jordan_> How to see my mac - comand in terminal ?
[07:27] <rr72> off to WoW
[07:27] <MilhousePunkRock> rr72: The internet, the global village... WoW? Are you a girl?
[07:28] <rr72> hell no
[07:28] <rr72> global village?
[07:28] <Snake> Whats wrong with WoW??
[07:28] <Snake> Its just addicting..
[07:28] <MilhousePunkRock> It's a game for girls...
[07:28] <jordan_> How to see my mac - comand in terminal ?
[07:29] <Snake> MilhousePunkRock: Technically so is every other game out there
[07:29] <rr72> stupid germans
[07:29] <rr72> ;)
[07:29] <Chousuke> MilhousePunkRock: err?
[07:29] <MilhousePunkRock> jordan_: For any of your NICs? ifconfig
[07:29] <MilhousePunkRock> Well, since I don't want to be flamed, I am just kidding of course...
[07:30] <dragon> hi
[07:30] <Snake> LOL MilhousePunkRock
[07:30] <MilhousePunkRock> Snake: You are right indeed, but I am still sure the number of female players is higher at WoW than at most other games...
[07:30] <jordan_> MilhousePunkRock thanks
[07:30] <rr72> MilhousePunkRock~ show me blizzards records and i will beleive
[07:30] <rr72> not female chars or females who bought it
[07:30] <Snake> MilhousePunkRock: is that a bad thing ;);) :-P
[07:30] <dragon> can any one give me a link to play windows games in  linex
[07:30] <Snake> !cedega
[07:30] <ubotu> cedega is a project based on wine, aimed at running windows games on Linux. For more info, see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Cedega

[07:31] <rr72> snake im going searching in the knee-deep thing called the www ;)
[07:31] <dragon> anyone know if battlefuild 2 runs ok with it
[07:31] <MilhousePunkRock> Snake: Not at all, we had a girl in our America's Army clan... But generally, "girls" play less PC games than "boys" do
[07:32] <MilhousePunkRock> dragon: Look at the Cedega page, I am sure they have compatibility lists...
[07:32] <dragon> cool cool
[07:32] <MilhousePunkRock> But I still think, there are more girls in WoW than in any other games...

[07:35] <gatekeeper> hiya MilhousePunkRock
[07:36] <dhq> is there any banwith meter to check status of upload and download in kubuntu
[07:36] <dhq> to check the speed
[07:37] <tux> conectar
[07:40] <MilhousePunkRock> Someone remind me I need to pick up my food from the Chinese restaurant next door in 10 minutes... ;-)
[07:40] <dhq> is there any banwith meter to check status of upload and download in kubuntu
[07:41] <MilhousePunkRock> Oh wait, I can use the KTeaTimer for that...
[07:42] <dhq> is there any way to increase ktorrent speed
[07:42] <dhq> its not at all stable
[07:42] <MilhousePunkRock> dhq: That depends on the torrent itself more than on KTorrent...
[07:43] <MilhousePunkRock> But a few things are: limiting your upload speed to about 80% of your upstream bandwith to allow overhead traffic
[07:43] <dhq> well when i was on windows the speed never droppe 30kb/sec but her it doesnt reach above 15 even if there are a lot of seeders
[07:43] <MilhousePunkRock> dhq: Limiting the number of connections, running not more than 2 or max 3 downloads at a time
[07:44] <MilhousePunkRock> dhq: With the exact same torrent? What client did you use on Win?
[07:45] <dhq> bitcommet
[07:45] <dragon> is there a trial vertion of cedega sorry to pester you but cant seem to fined one

[07:46] <dhq> MilhousePunkRock: is there any banwith meter to check status of upload and download in kubuntu
[07:47] <MilhousePunkRock> dhq: There you go, BitVomit cheats all other users on the torrent to be faster...
[07:47] <MilhousePunkRock> Snake: Torrent all the way! Too bad they don't make a Linux version...
[07:47] <Snake> MilhousePunkRock: you know he designed it so it runs perfectly in wine rigt?
[07:47] <Snake> right*?
[07:47] <Snake> ;-)
[07:48] <MilhousePunkRock> Snake: I won't bother setting up wine if I can have programs to do the job natively on Linux, e.g. KTorrent...
[07:48] <MilhousePunkRock> But I heard it runs better than anything on wine
[07:48] <Snake> Whats there to set up? you just sudo apt-get install wine, and wine utorrent.exe
[07:48] <Snake> :-P

[08:04] <os2mac> from the shell, how does one tell what version of kernel he is running?
[08:04] <Snake> os2mac: "uname" I think
[08:04] <GIGANTOR> uname -a
[08:04] <Snake> os2mac: GIGANTOR is correct
[08:05] <Snake> or uname -r
[08:05] <GIGANTOR> uname -fu is also popular
[08:06] <GIGANTOR> ;)
[08:06] <Snake> GIGANTOR: f is invalid :(
[08:06] <Snake> :-P

[08:19] <ccc_> os2mac: the default autostart dir is ~/.kde/Autostart
[08:19] <ccc_> os2mac: so you can put shortcuts to the apps you wanna autostart there
[08:20] <os2mac> there is no way to do it through a GUI for the average user?
[08:20] <os2mac> what I am looking at doing is runing a script that configures my wlan card.
[08:24] <Agios> os2mac: that might be better placed in /etc/rc.local depending on how it works
[08:26] <Agios> os2mac: But you can via the file manager navigate to .kde/Autostart and create a link there
[08:26] <os2mac> I am looking at putting it in init.d or rc2.d
[08:26] <Agios> Unless it is coded as an init script I wouldn't recommend that. rc.local is for local scripts
[08:28] <pc22> how do i share my internet to another computer?

[08:35] <ubotu> I know nothing about gmplayer - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[08:35] <Dr_Willis> hmm.. i normally use gmplayer, not kmplayer
[08:35] <james___> i like the KDE frontend to mplayer though..
[08:35] <james___> isn't that what kmplayer is?
[08:35] <Dr_Willis> i perfer vlc myself
[08:35] <fnord123> what version of kde does kubuntu 6.06 use?
[08:36] <Snake> fnord123: 3.5.2 I think
[08:36] <james___> yeah
[08:36] <pc22> thanks
[08:36] <fnord123> is it a bit improvement from kubuntu 5? i have 5 on my desktop at work and wondering if i should upgrade.
[08:36] <Eeyore> i have a bit of a problem
[08:37] <james___> even searching player on adept doesn't come up with mplayer
[08:37] <james___> just kmplayer-base and some other stuff
[08:38] <Eeyore> i used adept to update.  i had changed my grub file ealier.  seems the update overwrote the grub menu.lst.  now i have no windows xp pro on the list.  does someone have the configuraiton for windows xp that can  post here?
[08:39] <Tpol> there is a way to run terminal like as root ???
[08:39] <Snake> Tpol: sudo is root
[08:39] <Snake> Tpol: just put sudo before whatevre command you want to run as root
[08:40] <Tpol> but admin need to open the terminal. Can inform password. There is a way ??
[08:42] <fnord123> you can use sudo xterm & or sudo rxvt& to launch a terminal with root owner
[08:42] <Agios> or just sudo su -
[08:43] <Agios> I think getting root is a test. If you can't figure it out you shouldn't be root :)
[08:44] <psynth> windows is on hda1 primary partition, shoud i resize that partition then make two/three partitions for kubuntu for a dual boot thingy ?
[08:44] <Snake> sudo su works as well
[08:44] <fnord123> Agios: good point :)
[08:45] <Dr_Willis> Agios,  i agree... took me all of 10 sec to realize how to reenable it. :P
[08:45] <fnord123> hey im looking for some little apps to sit on the desktop and monitor things
[08:45] <Snake> fnord123: what are you monitering
[08:45] <Dr_Willis> fnord123,  gdesklets or other 'dockapps' can do that.
[08:45] <fnord123> network
[08:45] <Snake> fnord123: sudo apt-get install superkaramba
[08:45] <Dr_Willis> gnome  and kde also both have their own applets for a lot of that stuff as well.
[08:45] <Dr_Willis> i perfer to use windowmaker dock-apps in their own panel
[08:45] <fnord123> but if theres a framework for it, id like to make my own
[08:45] <Flosoft> hey
[08:46] <Dr_Willis> theres about 5+ frameworks for it. :)
[08:46] <Flosoft> is there any ubuntu package for smartctl
[08:46] <Snake> fnord123: superkaramba is the way to go for KDE
[08:46] <Snake> Dr_Willis: where can I find widgets for gdesklets?
[08:46] <ricardo> which repositories do i have to add to get latest kde and krusader?
[08:47] <Snake> !kde
[08:47] <ubotu> KDE (http://kde.org) is the K Desktop Environment. To install from Ubuntu: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop, or see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/InstallingKDE for other ways to get KDE
[08:47] <Dr_Willis> gdesklets has a homepage. and gnome-look.org
[08:47] <Snake> Dr_Willis: thanks
[08:47] <james___> what does Requested change: BREAK (install) mean?
[08:47] <Dr_Willis> superkaramba has its own page and kde-look.org
[08:47] <fnord123> is there a way to go from kub 5 to kub 6 without a full reinstall?
[08:47] <Dr_Willis> THEN ya got the windowmaker dock applets pages
[08:47] <Dr_Willis> :)
[08:48] <Snake> oh man...

[08:55] <cod> what is the kubuntu equivalent to ubuntu's update manager?
[08:55] <der_daniel> do you know where i can set back the background colors of my konqueror?... played around with the color options and the reset buttons won't set the color back to default

[08:59] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto
[09:00] <cod> what is the kubuntu equivalent to ubuntu's update manager?
[09:00] <Dr_Willis> adept
[09:00] <Dr_Willis> no wait.. the update tool.. Hmmm..
[09:00] <Dr_Willis> Not sure what its called.
[09:01] <lafrance> Synaptic ?
[09:01] <Dr_Willis> synaptic is the default apt-get gui for ubuntu
[09:02] <lafrance> ok
[09:02] <Dr_Willis> adept/synaptic  :)
[09:04] <cod> ok, i'm using adept, but its not finding any updates... and its a fresh install
[09:04] <cod> I dunno whats up with it
[09:04] <cod> i've been using ubuntu for a month now and figured I'd try out kubuntu... but its not being nice to me
[09:05] <Dr_Willis> i always install ubuntu, then apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[09:06] <cod> that wasn't working very well for me either.... it was still using gnome desktop
[09:07] <cod> i wanted to try out the kde, so I downloaded kubuntu iso and here I am now... not knowing what is up
[09:08] <lafrance> well going to read manual from the iso to refresh my memory
[09:09] <sorush20> adept seems to be unable to run as root .. I keep getting the same message that another program is using the apt-get so I will not be able to make any changes to the package list..
[09:09] <sorush20> I have checked with ps but there is not other adept running..
[09:10] <BluesKaj> did you do an apt-get update in the konsol and leave it open
[09:10] <lafrance> sorush20: are you installing updates ?
[09:10] <|lostbyte|> sorush20, time to reconfigure the db..
[09:13] <Agios> sorush20: if you are sure no other apt utility is running, go remove the lock file
[09:14] <dzachry> join mysql
[09:15] <|lostbyte|> sorush20, do, sudo dpkg --configure -a
[09:19] <rsosborn> Need Help
[09:19] <|lostbyte|> rsosborn, Shot !
[09:19] <rsosborn> I set up LAMP server and got all set up even FTP server but I can't figure out how to give access to a user to upload files to it
[09:20] <rsosborn> Its amazing I got the rest done and can't give a user access
[09:20] <rsosborn> lol
[09:21] <|lostbyte|> rsosborn, You can login as anonymous ?
[09:21] <rsosborn> I really just want to user to be able to load files to /var/www
[09:21] <rsosborn> I don't think so
[09:21] <rsosborn> I can log in and see all the files
[09:21] <rsosborn> but can't make changes to them or add files
[09:21] <rsosborn> I'm trying to ftp html from my windows box
[09:22] <rsosborn> to apache
[09:22] <KaiHanari> rsosborn, apache is not an FTP server
[09:22] <rsosborn> I know
[09:22] <rsosborn> its a web server
[09:22] <rsosborn> I set up a ftp server as well so I can ftp from windows to my apache server
[09:23] <|lostbyte|> rsosborn, check your permission on that folder, your trying to upload to.
[09:23] <rsosborn> I think that is the problem
[09:23] <rsosborn> but I don't know how to check the permissions
[09:23] <rsosborn> I'm a noob but savvy, just don't have a lot of linux experience
[09:23] <rsosborn> can some on give me a quick run down
[09:23] <|lostbyte|> rsosborn, ls -l <dir>
[09:24] <rsosborn> when I did that it says
[09:24] <rsosborn> httpd.conf
[09:24] <rsosborn> not that
[09:24] <rsosborn> didn't copy right
[09:24] <rsosborn> drwxr-xr-x 2 www-data www-data 4096 2006-07-28 15:54 apache2-default

[09:24] <rsosborn> that is what it says
[09:24] <|lostbyte|> rsosborn, ok, go to taht dir..
[09:25] <rsosborn> I'm there
[09:25] <|lostbyte|> go one step back and do. ls -l
[09:26] <rsosborn> drwxr-xr-x 2 www-data www-data 4096 2006-07-28 15:54 apache2-default

[09:27] <nalioth> rsosborn: please use a pastebin in the future
[09:27] <nalioth> rsosborn: it IS in the /topic
[09:27] <Hawkwind> !pastebin
[09:27] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (you can always find it in the channel topic, among other useful things)
[09:28] <rsosborn> lostbyte
[09:28] <rsosborn> I'm little confused
[09:28] <rsosborn> sorry
[09:29] <rsosborn> I did cd
[09:30] <navin> ho folks!!
[09:30] <navin> I am tryin to configure Xgl
[09:30] <navin> seems some problem with it
[09:31] <navin> windows borders are not visible
[09:31] <Hawkwind> !xgl
[09:31] <ubotu> Compiz (compositing (window) manager) and XGL (Xserver architecture layered on top of OpenGL) howto at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/CompositeManager XGL+compiz help in #ubuntu-xgl  See http://tinyurl.com/pw5ez for Kubuntu systems
[09:31] <Hawkwind> navin: Have you read all of those URL's ?
[09:31] <Jack12> peterre where is the sign "wegen Renovierungsarbeiten..."from?
[09:32] <Hawkwind> navin: Also, #XGL or #Ubuntu-XGL might have a bit better help
[09:32] <navin> http://noiesmo.dnsalias.net/article.php?story=20060602173658632
[09:32] <navin> This is what i read
[09:32] <nooby_god> does anyone here use the the extra kubuntu respitories? like http://kubuntu.org/packages/amarok-141/ for example?
[09:32] <castra> hi all..is it just me or kernel that comes with latest 6.06 is having issues with prism54 wifi cards??
[09:33] <|lostbyte|> rsosborn, Setting up apache, you will have to learn file permission..
[09:33] <|lostbyte|> rsosborn, http://www.freeos.com/articles/3127/
[09:33] <navin> gconf-editor does not show the plugin gconf
[09:33] <rsosborn> can someone tell me how to set premession to /var/www for apache server
[09:34] <|lostbyte|> navin, huh ?
[09:34] <nooby_god> does anyone here use the the extra kubuntu respitories? like http://kubuntu.org/packages/amarok-141/ for example?
[09:34] <rsosborn> I can't mod any files or give a user access to it for FTP purpose
[09:34] <rsosborn> I'm a noob
[09:34] <navin> i mean for XGL
[09:34] <nooby_god> will any confilicts occur if the same package is offered from the ubuntu respitores and the unoffical kubuntu ones?
[09:35] <nooby_god> will I be "upgrated" to the official one from ubuntu?
[09:35] <navin> http://noiesmo.dnsalias.net/article.php?story=20060602173658632 says i should have a plugin called gconf
[09:35] <navin> that missing in my config of XGL it seems... :-/
[09:35] <Hikaru79> nooby_god: whichever one has a higher version number will have priority. Chances are kubuntu's will overwrite
[09:35] <Hikaru79> However, you can specify to force a particular version.
[09:35] <|lostbyte|> navin, you mean, you have xgl up and running ?
[09:35] <nooby_god> Hikaru79 but what happens if the same versions are offered by both?
[09:35] <navin> it is probably up
[09:36] <navin> but ot running exactly as i wanted it to be
[09:36] <navin> as of now normal KDE is better!!!
[09:36] <slow-motion> re
[09:37] <|lostbyte|> slow-motion, hi :)
[09:37] <slow-motion> hi |lostbyte|
[09:39] <Hikaru79> nooby_god: I'm not sure. But if it's the same version, does it matter? :P
[09:39] <Hikaru79> If there's any change, there'll be a suffix to the version number
[09:39] <Hikaru79> Like 1.2~ubuntu3 or something.
[09:39] <Hikaru79> So they shouldn't have an identical version number unless they truely are 100% identical.
[09:39] <nooby_god> ok Hikaru79
[09:41] <Ace2005> Hi all how much faster would my system be if i had a raid?
[09:41] <Ace2005> can i make a raid using two partitions from two disks which vary in size, say 50GB from a 250GB disk and a 80GB disk?
[09:42] <Ace2005> oh and how hard would it be to set this up?
[09:43] <Ace2005> .......
[09:44] <Flo>  i have some problems with the soundsystem. i'm using kubuntu and have installed all necessary packages for amarok. the kde sound effects work, but amarok says xine isn't able to load the audio driver.
[09:45] <Ace2005> tried running xine and configure it to use alsa?
[09:46] <Ace2005> I'll ask in ubuntu
[09:47] <Flosoft> hey ... how do I enable SMART on my HDDs?
[09:49] <Flosoft> and I get this error when I try to mount my LVM partition:
[09:49] <Flosoft> http://rafb.net/paste/results/FAiLJo47.html
[09:54] <Flosoft> can someone help me?
[09:55] <Ace2005> Flosoft: try #ubuntu it seems quiet in here
[09:56] <talljon84> 'afternoon all
[09:56] <talljon84> Q w/ Audacity. Anyone around familiar with it?
[09:59] <MukiEX> It seems quiet in ubuntu-xgl, and there's a possibility someone here might know whassup; anyone having trouble in Kubuntu/Compiz getting the gnome-based settings to save?
[09:59] <MukiEX> gconf and gnome-* settings aren't making it through a reboot.
[10:01] <LeXTul> i have running kubuntu edgy and aiglx ... nice effects can only be done throug compiz insteed of kwin right (if i want use compiz, i can only use translu.) right ? or are nice effects possible without compiz ?
[10:01] <dimsuz> Hi! Can anyone please explain (or give a link) me what is "edgy"
[10:01] <dimsuz> :)
[10:02] <LeXTul> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/EdgyEft
[10:03] <dimsuz> LeXTul: thanks!
[10:03] <Flosoft> how do I enable SMART on my HDDs? I get this error when I try to mount my LVM partition: http://rafb.net/paste/results/FAiLJo47.html
[10:04] <dimsuz> another question... apt wants to install gcc-4.0. Can I somehow install gcc-4.1 for example?
[10:05] <dive-o> I know I've asked this before, but I didn't keep the links, and I'm at work - can someone point me to the docs on installing java, dvdcss, etc?
[10:05] <LeXTul> ubuntuguide.org
[10:08] <h3sp4wn> dimsuz: If you want gcc-4.1 you have to use edgy (unstable)
[10:08] <dimsuz> h3sp4wn: that means to use edgy for _all_ packages?
[10:09] <DarkED> hey all
[10:09] <h3sp4wn> dimsuz: I don't see much point in having gcc-4.1 if the rest of the system isn't compiled with it
[10:09] <DarkED> i want to pull my old kontact journals from an old home dir, where are they held?
[10:11] <dimsuz> h3sp4wn: ok :). I'm just figuring out how the things work.
[10:11] <lafrance> any one know how to open gconf-editor ?
[10:12] <lafrance> nvm found it
[10:12] <dive-o> what's the tool I need to get nvidia video working? nvidia-glx?
[10:12] <dive-o> I did all this ony my home computer, but can't find the site that explained it all nicely
[10:12] <dive-o> ubuntuguide.org isn't it
[10:13] <Flosoft> I get this error when I try to mount my LVM partition: http://rafb.net/paste/results/FAiLJo47.html
[10:13] <Flosoft> Could someone help me with this?
[10:14] <Leeif> Hello Kubuntu Users!
[10:16] <Ace2005> hello
[10:16] <Leeif> Can i install this debian package in ubuntu?
[10:16] <Leeif> http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/pool/main/g/glibc/libc6_2.3.6-16_i386.deb
[10:17] <Ace2005> you can but it'd be better to get the ubuntu version via apt-get, that is designed for debian
[10:17] <talljon84> Hey all- I installed Firefox from Adept but it won't connect to anything. Konqueror works fine but not Firefox. Ideas?
[10:17] <osh_> Flosoft: been a while since I did some lvm stuff. don't you mount it with type lvm?
[10:17] <tailsfan> This is a stupid question to ask probably but...
[10:18] <Flosoft> osh_: how do you mean?
[10:18] <tailsfan> In Shipit, When you order CDs in that week, does that week count for one of the four week or is it the week after?
[10:18] <osh_> in that log you specified type with -t ext3, I think you're supposed to write -t lvm
[10:19] <osh_> Flosoft: might be wrong though. as I said. it's been a while.
[10:19] <dimsuz> and is there a way to install a package from debian-unstable?
 i  think i can't cant get libc6 (>= 2.3.6-6) via apt-get because ubuntu version is libc6_2.3.6-0ubuntu20
[10:20] <osh_> Flosoft: did it work?
[10:20] <simian__> i've got a laptop that is out of warrenty, one day it mad a stange noise and then when i rebooted it it said it can't find an operating system. i can't install linux becuase it can't find a hard disk. so i have come to the conclusion that the HD has broke. I've now removed the HD and found an exact match here http://www.laptopshop.co.uk/laptop-hard-drives.htm?ppcse=google&gclid=CMaQjvrft4YCFU6kFQodTk7GRw  but i feel like i'm
[10:20] <Ace2005> Leeif: why do you need that version?
[10:20] <Flosoft> osh_: mount: unknown filesystem type 'lvm'
[10:20] <tailsfan> and if you order them on a Sunday, what day does it come to you, Moday or Saturday?
 because i cant install initng without that version
 for example
 and many other packages
[10:21] <osh_> Flosoft: sorry, stupid me. you're right. you mount it with -t ext3. and you've created a filesystem on your new lvm disk have you?
[10:22] <Flosoft> yes
[10:22] <osh_> Flosoft: what's the name of it?
[10:22] <Flosoft> osh_: mkfs.ext3 /dev/server/server
[10:23] <talljon84> Is anyone aware of why Firefox wouldn't pull webpages but works just fine if I give it the IP of the site?
[10:23] <osh_> Flosoft: and the output from that was fine?
[10:24] <osh_> what does dmesg say about /dev/server/server?
[10:24] <Flosoft> osh_: Writing inode tables: done
[10:24] <Flosoft> ext2fs_mkdir: Attempt to read block from filesystem resulted in short read while creating root dir
[10:25] <osh_> talljon84: your dns is proably screwed up.
[10:25] <jmichaelx> could anyone out there give a desperate man some help trying to get a broadcom wireless card working?
[10:26] <osh_> Flosoft: hmm, still thinking here....
[10:26] <talljon84> osh_: Konqueror works fine.. it's just Firefox that won't work.
[10:27] <osh_> talljon84: then I don't know. when ip works but not adresses it's usually the dns. check FF for extensions or other things that might screw it up.
[10:27] <Ace2005> Leeif: Well you could this guide https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InitNG
[10:28] <talljon84> FF?
[10:28] <dimsuz> talljon84: FF=FireFox ;)
[10:29] <dimsuz> talljon84: it gives you an error or just waits and nothing happens?
[10:29] <talljon84> dimsuz: ooh. hehe. I checked those already. I thought it might be a proxy setting but it's set to directly connect.
[10:29] <osh_> Flosoft: what's the output if you try to mount the drive without specifying -t ext3?
[10:30] <talljon84> dimsuz: it gives the took-to-long-to-respond error
[10:30] <dimsuz> talljon84: if you run it from terminal does it output some error there?
[10:31] <Flosoft> http://rafb.net/paste/results/C8tCAw22.html
[10:31] <dimsuz> talljon84: hmmm... if there's a firefox irc channel perhaps you should try to ask there...
[10:31] <dimsuz> Is there a way to install a package from debian-unstable?
[10:31] <dimsuz> ..in kubuntu
[10:31] <wolfmanz> jmichaelx your probably dont want to here this but if you cant get your wireless card to work maybe you should purchase one thats supported under kubuntu
[10:32] <osh_> Flosoft: yes, but without the -t ext3. what then?
[10:32] <Flosoft> well there is -t ext3
[10:33] <osh_> Flosoft: you've typed it according to your paste. "mount -t ext3 /dev/......."
[10:33] <osh_> Flosoft: I want to know what will happen if you omit it.
[10:34] <Flosoft> root@ubuntu:/# mount /dev/server/server server
[10:34] <Flosoft> mount: you must specify the filesystem type
[10:34] <Flosoft> root@ubuntu:/#
[10:34] <Flosoft> that is without
[10:34] <osh_> Flosoft: right. annoying.
[10:34] <osh_> Flosoft: not unexpected but annoying.
[10:34] <Raito> Where does KDE store its icons?
[10:36] <jmichaelx> wolfmanz: i had this card working under a previous kubuntu installation
[10:37] <dimsuz> Raito: $KDEDIR/share/icons/
[10:37] <dimsuz> Raito: where $KDEDIR can be replaced with /usr or /home/<user_name>
[10:37] <wolfmanz> jmichaelx have you tried doing a search on the ubuntu forums?
[10:38] <Raito> dimsuz: hmm /usr/share/icons only has some sun java stuff
[10:38] <jmichaelx> wolfmanz: those forums are what have screwed things up
[10:38] <wolfmanz> lol
[10:38] <Tintin> I can't view videos from video.google.com in Konqueror.. Anybody knows why?
[10:39] <dimsuz> Raito: at least that's so in "vanilla" kde :)
[10:39] <Tintin> It works in firefox
[10:39] <dimsuz> Raito: I'm new to kubuntu, so I didn't check :)
[10:39] <Raito> oh wait... there are folders there
[10:42] <osh_> Flosoft: could you check that your created logical volume is actually online? vgscan/vgs/vgchange or something like that is the command I believe.
[10:43] <Flosoft> I'm currently reformating the ext3 disk
[10:45] <Flosoft> osh_: http://rafb.net/paste/results/WEfXze33.html
[10:45] <james___> how do i let kubuntu redetect my monitor and xorg settings?
[10:46] <Naosv> any tremulous players around?
[10:46] <insanekane> james___: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[10:47] <james___> insanekane: ahh thanks :D
[10:47] <osh_> Flosoft: that doesn't look good.
[10:47] <Flosoft> I thought of the same thing ;)
[10:47] <Flosoft> maybe a reboot?
[10:48] <osh_> Flosoft: you're running this through evms?
[10:48] <Flosoft> no
[10:48] <Flosoft> Webmin :S
[10:48] <osh_> Flosoft: I'm not sure a reboot will help. In fact I doubt it.
[10:48] <Flosoft> hmm ok
[10:50] <osh_> Flosoft: I'd start over. Delete all and begin again. First use pvcreate to create your physvols, then vgcreate to make the volumegroups and finally lvcreate for the logical volume. It's not that hard if you read the manpages.
[10:50] <Flosoft> ok ... how do I delete everything?
[10:50] <osh_> Flosoft: since there's nothing on them you might as well experiment a bit, no?
[10:51] <Flosoft> yes
[10:51] <_stev_> just installed kubuntu and using tvtime but the color quality isn't so good, it is like there are spots shining on the faces of the people in the film
[10:51] <osh_> Flosoft: if you use webmin I'm sure there's an option there?
[10:52] <Flosoft> yes
[10:52] <jmichaelx> abattoir: ummm, hey, you  there?
[10:52] <jmichaelx> :-D
[10:53] <osh_> Flosoft: try that. be careful though. don't wipe your old data.
[10:54] <osh_> Flosoft: sorry that I can't be of greater assistance.
[10:55] <jmichaelx> i am getting a missing module error '/lib/modules/2.6.15-26-686/kernel/drivers/net/ndiswrapper/ndiswrapper.ko'
[10:55] <jmichaelx> is there any way to fix this?
[10:56] <Flosoft> xok
[10:56] <Flosoft> *ok
[10:56] <Flosoft> I deleted all the LVM Group etc.
[10:56] <Flosoft> so how do I create it in console ?
[10:57] <osh_> Flosoft: what's the name of your disks?
[10:57] <Flosoft> osh_: hdb , hde , hdf
[10:58] <osh_> Flosoft: pvcreate /dev/hdb /dev/hde /dev/hdf
[10:58] <osh_> Flosoft: but don't rely on me. check everything I say by looking at the manpage for pvcreate

[10:59] <Flosoft> no problem
[10:59] <Flosoft> it is a clean install ;)
[11:00] <james___> crimsun: ok i'll try that :)
[11:00] <jmichaelx> i am getting a fatal missing module error '/lib/modules/2.6.15-26-686/kernel/drivers/net/ndiswrapper/ndiswrapper.ko' .... is there any way i can correct this?

[11:06] <crimsun> james___: wrong one. Use dapper.
[11:06] <james___> ok
[11:07] <osh_> Flosoft: lvcrate -n lvol1 -i 3 volume1
[11:07] <osh_> Flosoft: you can't use the same name I believe. one is a vg (volume group) and the other is a lv (logical volume)
[11:08] <osh_> Flosoft: and lvcreate naturally....
[11:08] <Flosoft> that wasn't the problem
[11:08] <Flosoft> it doesn't work :S
[11:09] <osh_> Flosoft: what's the error message from the latest try?
[11:09] <Flosoft> same thing
[11:09] <james___> crimsun: i found a website with a list of good repositories to replace the default ones with, this is what i needed :D
[11:09] <james___> http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Dapper
[11:10] <osh_> Flosoft: do you have a directory called /dev/volume1?
[11:10] <Flosoft> nope
[11:11] <osh_> Flosoft: hmm, ok, how about "lvcreate volume1" then. what's the output then?
[11:11] <Flosoft> root@ubuntu:/etc/webmin# lvcreate volume1
[11:11] <Flosoft>   Please specify either size or extents (not both)
[11:11] <Flosoft>   lvcreate: Create a logical volume

[11:13] <geneo93> Failed to fetch http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/k/kdelibs/kdelibs4c2a_3.5.2-0ubuntu18.1_i386.deb whats this about
[11:14] <RobNyc_C> anyone here running 6.10 ? if yes please pm with the sources.list of it
[11:14] <osh_> Flosoft: lvcreate -L 1000 volume1
[11:14] <bobbyyu> Can someone please help me with my Samba networking problems?
[11:14] <osh_> Flosoft: should create a 1gb volume.
[11:14] <osh_> Flosoft: i hope
[11:15] <osh_> Flosoft: pvs or pvscan or something should give you an output on how many extents you have and then you can use -l <that number> to create an lvm for the entire space of your drives.
[11:16] <bobbyyu> Everytime I try to access the Samba shares with Windows, it says "Denied, you may not have permission to access this network resource"
[11:16] <bobbyyu> What I do?
[11:16] <osh_> bobbyyu: stop using windows? ;-)
[11:17] <jmichaelx> i am getting a fatal missing module error '/lib/modules/2.6.15-26-686/kernel/drivers/net/ndiswrapper/ndiswrapper.ko' .... is there any way i can correct this?
[11:17] <nancy1> hi everyone , can anyon ehelp me to configure modem connection,, I always get error remote has to authenticate itself, ... no sutable password to give.... none of available pw will let use IP
[11:17] <kameronk_> bobbyyu, why not try running a simple webserver on it? this way you can download all the files... i've never had much luck with windows shares... but if you need to upload to the windows computer, that may be more trouble
[11:18] <osh_> nancy1: /etc/ppp/options there's an option called "auth". Perhaps changing that to "noauth" helps?
[11:18] <bobbyyu> If I try a webserver, then everyone can access it
[11:18] <Flosoft> osh_: How do I create it using 100%?
[11:19] <osh_> nancy1: not that I've gotten my modem to work on my machine...
[11:19] <nancy1> but I do have to auth to my ISP,, wont that prevent this
[11:19] <osh_> Flosoft: run vgdisplay, does it say anything about "extents" there?
[11:20] <nancy1> osh_,  ill try it ,, be back in a moment
[11:20] <Flosoft> osh_: got it: Logical volume "lvol0" created
[11:20] <kameronk_> not if you set it up correctly
[11:21] <kameronk_> bobbyu, i suggest http://www.brswebweaver.com/ (BRS WebWeaver); it supports http authentication
[11:21] <Flosoft> osh_: http://rafb.net/paste/results/N8mD8127.html
[11:23] <osh_> Flosoft: looks ok doesn't it?
[11:23] <Flosoft> yup
[11:24] <osh_> Flosoft: is there a full path to the lv somewhere? one that you can do an mkfs on?
[11:25] <osh_> Flosoft: like lvdisplay might show something.
[11:25] <Flosoft>  /dev/volume1/lvol0
[11:25] <osh_> Flosoft: you've created an fs there yet?
[11:26] <Flosoft> no
[11:26] <_susana> hola
[11:26] <osh_> Flosoft: try it. I want to know if things work.
[11:27] <_susana> alguien que hable espaol
[11:27] <osh_> !es
[11:27] <ubotu> Para Espaol por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[11:27] <Flosoft>  mkfs -t ext3 /dev/volume1/lvol0 ?
[11:27] <osh_> Flosoft: looks about right.
[11:27] <Flosoft> osh_: Writing inode tables:  178/3736
[11:28] <osh_> Flosoft: if this works please be aware that we've created a very basic lv. there are much more advanced things that could be done with stripesizes and other things.
[11:29] <Flosoft> osh_: what do you mean?
[11:29] <osh_> Flosoft: i'd be very happy if things worked out the way they should now though.
[11:31] <osh_> Flosoft: you could change this volume to get higher/better performance by giving some other options or something. If you want to dive deeper into the lvm2 jungle.
[11:31] <osh_> Flosoft: still creating fs?
[11:31] <Flosoft> osh_: yes
[11:31] <arso> is there a soft that makes the screen go black at the press of the button? and back on with another pres?
[11:31] <Flosoft> osh_: Might it be that a HDD is broken?
[11:31] <osh_> arso: openoffice impress. ;-)
[11:32] <arso> osh_:  wats that :P
[11:32] <osh_> arso: press "b" or "w".
[11:32] <arso> yinside openoffice?
[11:32] <osh_> Flosoft: let's not hope so.
[11:32] <osh_> arso: yeah, it's the OO version of powerpoint.
[11:33] <arso> umm
[11:33] <arso> i am in it

[11:34] <ubotu> I know nothing about ar - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[11:35] <arso> osh_: i  am in impress, its not wo rking
[11:35] <osh_> arso: create a document. start the presentation. then press b or w. the screen goes black or white depending on what you want.
[11:36] <osh_> Flosoft: still not done?
[11:36] <Flosoft> osh_: nope
[11:36] <Flosoft> Writing inode tables: 2882/3736
[11:37] <osh_> Flosoft: have a look at smart-tools to see if your disks are in order. they're pretty good.
[11:37] <Flosoft> osh_: I have smart-tools installed
[11:37] <Flosoft> but I don't know how to activate smart on my hdds
[11:37] <Flosoft> they all support it.
[11:38] <osh_> Flosoft: have a look in the manpages. again, it was years ago that I last had a look at smart.
[11:40] <Flosoft> Writing inode tables: done
[11:40] <Flosoft> ext2fs_mkdir: Attempt to read block from filesystem resulted in short read while creating root dir
[11:40] <osh_> Flosoft: damn you have big disks...
[11:42] <Flosoft> osh_: hehe
[11:42] <osh_> Flosoft: I'd look into smart and check your disks. what we did should have worked.
[11:42] <osh_> Flosoft: I suspect you can't mount the disk again?
[11:43] <lhds> how to delete a dir containing files and subfolders?
[11:43] <Flosoft> osh_: I have just seen a problem
[11:43] <Flosoft>  /dev/hdf dissappeared :S
[11:43] <Flosoft> atleast in webmin
[11:43] <osh_> Flosoft: that's not good.
[11:43] <lhds> sudo rm -d -- apply rm: cannot remove `apply': Is a directory how to delete a dir containing files and subfolders?
[11:44] <wckdkl0wn> what site do you all recommend for getting kde themes?
[11:44] <osh_> lhds: man rm (have a look at the -f "force" flag, but be careful. it's potent. also, look at -r "recursive")
[11:45] <osh_> lhds: be very VERY careful though. you might screw up really bad. rm -rf is a good way to put yourself in a world of hurt.
[11:45] <osh_> Flosoft: what does pvscan/pvs say? do they still see hdf?
[11:46] <jeppelelle> join #kubuntu -se
[11:46] <dimsuz> Hi! What happens if there is already some package for edgy and a new version of it appears before edgy release?
[11:46] <dimsuz> mmm... is my phrase understandable? :)
[11:46] <UKF^vortex> Hi, I have a question
[11:47] <lhds> what are these :  /usr/src$ ls  linux-headers-2.6.15-26  linux-headers-2.6.15-26-386
[11:47] <UKF^vortex> I have kubuntu installed and I want to install GNOME
[11:47] <Flosoft> osh_: http://rafb.net/paste/results/eDx7n347.html
[11:47] <Flosoft> maybe my IDE cable ?
[11:47] <Flosoft> or the IDE controller?
[11:47] <UKF^vortex> is there any way to have both installed ? KDE and GNOME ?
[11:47] <Flosoft> I could connect it to another IDE cable?
[11:48] <UKF^vortex> and to choose while running linux ?
[11:49] <osh_> Flosoft: bad disk in some way. "smartctl -all /dev/hdf" or something to check it. might need to take vg offline first though. I don't know about that. in that case "vgchange -a n" or similar.
[11:50] <osh_> Flosoft: do test by all means. i've got to go. it's late here and i need some sleep.
[11:50] <Flosoft> ok
[11:50] <Flosoft> nite
[11:50] <Flosoft> and thx for your help
[11:51] <osh_> UKF^vortex: sudo aptitude install ubuntu-desktop. should put gnome on your machine (but why you'd want that is beyond me).
[11:51] <osh_> Flosoft: good luck. normally I charge a bit over $100/h for this kind of help. ;-)
[11:52] <LacertaII> can someone help me with wireless assistant?
[11:52] <Martijn81> UKF^vortex: ^ and in the g/kdm you can choose for kde or gnome while booting
[11:53] <UKF^vortex> is there any way to install xgl for kde ?
[11:53] <wckdkl0wn> kdm is always telling me that the kthemes are not valid files.. any idea?
[11:53] <osh_> Flosoft: also, have a look at raid. that way you won't get burned by 1 broken disk.
[11:53] <osh_> !xgl
[11:53] <ubotu> Compiz (compositing (window) manager) and XGL (Xserver architecture layered on top of OpenGL) howto at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/CompositeManager XGL+compiz help in #ubuntu-xgl  See http://tinyurl.com/pw5ez for Kubuntu systems
[11:54] <Flosoft> osh_:  ok
[11:54] <LacertaII> i can't get to wireless assistants config mostly because the button that should be in the main panel ("configure") is not
[11:56] <lhds> ANYONE JUST ANYONE HELP i have /lib/modules/2.6.15-26-686/kernel/build/drivers/ instead of /lib/modules/2.6.15-26-686/kernel/drivers/ how to remove that build?
[11:56] <LacertaII> i'm sure i've got the same version 0.5.5 that is on all the screenshots that actually do have the button
[11:59] <osh_> Flosoft: it's been fun. should you see me here tomorrow or any other day, feel free to let me know how things work out for you.
[11:59] <Flosoft> osh_: I will :)
[12:01] <Garoboldy> using adept to install libjack-dev on my box.   I really dont know
[12:01] <sorush20> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/19211 why do I keep getting this message?
[12:07] <BluesKaj> how to configure a file as super user ?
[12:07] <BluesKaj> like cdroast for example
[12:08] <JohnFlux_> "configure a file" ?
