[00:00] <wilsonfrisk> guys: this is my plan
[00:00] <jhutchins_wk> I prefer konqueror anyway.
[00:00] <jhutchins_wk> Whoo!  Quittin' time!
[00:01]  * genii punches  jhutchins' timecard out
[00:01] <wilsonfrisk> I use firefox because of no script.  can linux get botnetted?
[00:02]  * Hydrogen didn't know that was a verb
[00:02] <taghastien41> i cannt connect to the frensh kubuntu
[00:03] <wilsonfrisk> Hydrogen: what is the active verbage of the term then?
[00:03] <wilsonfrisk> anyway anyway, does it happen much?
[00:04] <wilsonfrisk> linux - botnet - does happen?
[00:04] <wilsonfrisk> how do i shot web?
[00:04] <wilsonfrisk> is anyone here?
[00:05] <psyco> g2g ty for your help guys
[00:06] <nosrednaekim> wilsonfrisk: mah linux doesn't get bot-netted
[00:06] <nosrednaekim> *nah
[00:07] <taghastien41> wht dose it meen i have banned from the channel
[00:09] <dwidmann> taghastien41: banned means that an channel operator banned you and you can't re-enter the channel for a set period of time
[00:09] <taghastien41> but why
[00:09] <taghastien41> thanks
[00:10] <dwidmann> taghastien41: I usually it means you did something wrong
[00:10] <wilsonfrisk> nosrednaekim: so I can surf whatever without worrying about it?
[00:10] <Perso> could anybody tell me a clue about this error: http://img405.imageshack.us/img405/9120/inst1eu4.png)
[00:11] <nosrednaekim> wilsonfrisk: yeah... but don't be stupid :P
[00:11] <nosrednaekim> wilsonfrisk: and never enter your sudo password if the brower asks for it
[00:12] <cpk1> Perso: either mount it as root or use setuid root
[00:12] <taghastien41> Gtran 6210 modem driver for evdo internet connection
[00:14] <MilitantPotato> Perso: go to that website, follow the guide
[00:14] <wilsonfrisk> nosrednaekim: k.  sounds good.  I think unless they get sudo i cannot get raeped.
[00:15] <MilitantPotato> Perso: also, if you own the folders in /media it helps (or did for me in gutsy)
[00:15] <nosrednaekim> wilsonfrisk: correct
[00:15] <Perso> MilitantPotato: in the past I hadn't such problem. What's new? :S
[00:15] <MilitantPotato> nosrednaekim: did that script editing work for you?
[00:15] <Arwen> Reiser was convicted :D
[00:15] <MilitantPotato> for fglrx
[00:15] <Arwen> MurderFS.
[00:16] <MilitantPotato> Perso: probably aren't in the group you need to be?
[00:16] <taghastien41> Gtran 6210 modem driver for evdo internet connection
[00:16] <MilitantPotato> Perso: I'm honestly not sure why it does that, did it for me, but not my wife's pc
[00:16] <Perso> the thing is I hadn't write access in the past so I think I hadn't fuse either MilitantPotato
[00:17] <nosrednaekim> MilitantPotato: yes! it did
[00:17] <Perso> and I don't want to have write access I want ro access
[00:17] <MilitantPotato> nosrednaekim: did for me aswell.
[00:18] <MilitantPotato> Perso: edit the fstab so they mount with ro
[00:18] <Perso> yep, done. But it says again and again that MilitantPotato
[00:19] <gene> Whats with driconf and xdriinfo, both claim libGL is too old?
[00:19] <Perso> i'm going to let you see the ntfs fstab line MilitantPotato
[00:19] <MilitantPotato> Perso: did you follow the guide on that website?
[00:19] <MilitantPotato> It says to do it in the error message.
[00:19] <MilitantPotato> you probably should :)
[00:20] <Perso> no I didn't because until today I hadn't that problem MilitantPotato.
[00:20] <Perso> I was happy in the past :S... :)
[00:21] <Perso> i? going to have a look...
[00:21] <MilitantPotato> well, not much we can do I'd guess
[00:31] <taghastien41> there is no personne here
[00:34] <robotgeek> taghastien41: what do you need?
[00:40] <gokhan_> h
[00:41] <_SharXx_-> d
[00:41] <Jucato> hm?
[00:41] <_SharXx_-> S.a
[00:43] <Choreboy> I need some general support, anyone feeling particularly helpful?
[00:43] <Jucato> try asking the actual question, then we'll find out
[00:43] <Choreboy> fair enough
[00:43] <will00> is there a special procedure that must be followed to install kubuntu on a cf card?
[00:44] <Choreboy> I have the latest version of Kubuntu, connecting to a windows network with Samba. I can open my various file types over the network, but I can't open any sort of video file.
[00:44] <Choreboy> I can copy the file locally then open, but it won't open over the network.
[00:45] <Jucato> oh samba... sorry I can't help there...
[00:45]  * Jucato has no samba :/
[00:45] <Choreboy> Hmm. It's the strangest thing. And I don't know ANYTHING about Linux... I'm trying to switch but when I run into problems it makes it hard to STAY switched :-(
[00:45] <crash_> Pray with me now, as I try the upgrade process to Kubuntu 8
[00:46] <robotgeek> Choreboy: hmm, lemme google
[00:46] <Choreboy> OK well how's this... I can't install java runtime environment, it errored out. Now I have 2 "updates" for Java, but they error as well.
[00:47] <Choreboy> Been using Adept package manager
[00:47] <Choreboy> or Adept installer or whatever it's called
[00:47] <crash_> Adept Package Manager
[00:47] <Choreboy> it seems like I have to agree to Sun's terms to use Java but I don't know how to agree to it.
[00:48] <crash_> but just Adept will do
[00:48] <Choreboy> I wish I knew more about Linux. I love the idea of everyone working together and making a great product by the people for the people
[00:48] <Choreboy> but it makes me feel like such an artard.
[00:49] <Choreboy> I have to re-learn everything :-\
[00:49] <crash_> No worries man
[00:49] <taghastien41> thank u robot for ur anser i need a solution for my hdd locked and password forgotten and gtran 6210 modem driver
[00:49] <crash_> Ive been a pc tech for 15 years
[00:49] <crash_> Im just still learning linux
[00:49] <robotgeek> crash_: give me a second, i think i can find a link for you
[00:49] <crash_> a link?
[00:49] <crash_> for what?
[00:49] <crash_> I havent asked a question :P
[00:50] <Choreboy> Yeah I'm fairly familiar with various workings of Windows, I always help friend with minor tech support, but I would love to switch to Linux full time and play around with different distributions.
[00:50] <robotgeek> sorry, i think i meant Choreboy
[00:50] <Choreboy> oh ok thanks. I googled it but I couldn't find much on the subject
[00:51] <mneptok> Choreboy: <tab><enter>
[00:51] <robotgeek> Choreboy: hit f12, or more details and accept it
[00:51] <crash_> lol mneptok thats kinda cheating, isnt it?
[00:51] <mneptok> Choreboy: there is an <OK> field at the bottom of the Sun EULA
[00:51] <Choreboy> what does tab enter do?
[00:51] <Ketrel> I'm having trouble compiling something, I want to compile kanjipad 2.0, but I keep getting errors
[00:51] <Choreboy> Yeah I couldn't figure out how to get there
[00:51] <Choreboy> hmmm
[00:51] <mneptok> Choreboy: selects the <OK> button and then presses it
[00:51] <Choreboy> let me give it a shot, hold your breath
[00:52] <crash_> Ketrel: pastebin your errors. I cant help fix it, but I can tell you thats the first thing they want you to do.,
[00:52] <Choreboy> should I uninstall what I have and reinstall, or just install the "updates"
[00:52] <Ketrel> ok
[00:52] <Ketrel> one moment
[00:53] <Choreboy> ok it shows me the EULA but I have no way to get to the <ok>
[00:54] <Choreboy> tab enter doesn't work, mouse is a no go...
[00:54] <crash_> hm
[00:54] <Choreboy> it's just a bunch of pretty text on my screen that I can't access
[00:54] <crash_> if it were windows, I would give you the kb shortcuts to arrow the window around until you could see
[00:55] <crash_> tried just hitting enter?
[00:55] <Ketrel_> crash_: Here's the pastebin http://pastebin.ca/1001104
[00:55] <Choreboy> I can see the <ok> but I have no way to get a cursor in there to click on type or anything
[00:55] <mneptok> Choreboy: the mouse does not work in a terminal, sir
[00:55] <Choreboy> I figured that but anything is worth a shot
[00:56] <mneptok> Choreboy: press <tab>. then press <enter>. it's not a key combo.
[00:56] <Choreboy> I played around with it for a half hour before I went seeking help
[00:56] <Choreboy> tried that too. Tried them separate, tried them together.
[00:56] <mneptok> Choreboy: and make sure the window is selected.
[00:56] <crash_> Ketrel_: Im sorry if I wasn't clear. *I* dont know squat about compiler errors. But the folks who CAN help you will want that pastebin
[00:56] <Choreboy> yes it's the active window
[00:56] <Choreboy> I don't know what a pastebin is
[00:56] <crash_> !pastebin
[00:57] <Jucato> Ketrel_: looks like you'll have to ask in a kanjipad channel or help forums. it looks like an error in their source code
[00:57] <Jucato> Ketrel_: is there a reason you don't want to use the kanjipad package in our repositories?
[00:57] <crash_> I thought the same. But I was nowhere near confident enough to say it
[00:58] <Ketrel_> Jucato: I'm trying to compile it first and then ask my second question "Can I use Linux to compile a windows binary of it"
[00:58] <mneptok> Ketrel_: no.
[00:59] <Jucato> no
[00:59] <Choreboy> I think my Kubuntu is broken. I guess Geek Squad will have to save me.
[00:59] <Choreboy> Lol I kid, I kid.
[00:59] <Ketrel_> Damn, that sucks :(
[01:00] <nixbox> i installed windows and it wiped the ubuntu bootloader, i do not have the live CD anymore, is there a way to restore ubuntu bootloader or boot into ubuntu other than using the live CD?
[01:00] <Ketrel_> I can't figure out how to get a workable enviornment to compile it on windows :\
[01:00] <Ketrel_> I've been looking forever for a program that did exactly that
[01:00] <mneptok> Ketrel_: does it claim to work with Windows?
[01:00] <Jucato> !grub | nixbox
[01:01] <Jucato> nixbox: see the first link ^^^^
[01:01] <Choreboy> You know guys, I have only been running Kubuntu since 8.04 was officially released and I don't have much on here... maybe I should just format and reinstall?
[01:01] <Choreboy> because I am just not having luck with Samba, Java, etc.
[01:01] <robotgeek> Choreboy: no, you don't do that in Linux!
[01:01] <Choreboy> oh my.
[01:01] <robotgeek> heh
[01:01] <Choreboy> well what DO I do?
[01:02] <Choreboy> Samba won't let me open any video files over my network, Adept is giving me fits installing Java..
[01:02] <robotgeek> Choreboy: your samba thing, we will deal with later. first, you java thing
[01:02] <Choreboy> ok Java it is.
[01:03] <luis> buenas
[01:03] <nosrednaekim> psyco: hey... could you help Choreboy with his java? probably has the same problem as you
[01:03] <Choreboy> Do you guys type my name like "Choreboy:" or do you have a shortcut that throws my name down for ya?
[01:03] <luis> hello
[01:03] <Choreboy> I don't know jack about IRC either I just installed this so I could get some Linux help
[01:03] <robotgeek> Choreboy: i type <c <press tab key> and it completes it for me
[01:03] <Choreboy> ah that's handy
[01:04] <luis> hi need some help
[01:04] <nosrednaekim> luis: whats the problem?
[01:04] <luis> :) I'm a newbie
[01:04] <robotgeek> Choreboy: also leads to typing wrong names, if you dont watch it
[01:04] <nosrednaekim> luis: thats not a problem per se ;P
[01:04] <luis> I have just installed the new kubuntu 8.04 with the kde4
[01:05] <nosrednaekim> Choreboy: ok, did yu install the sun java packages from the repositories?
[01:05] <luis> now to get connected to internet, I need to install the package br2684ctl
[01:05] <Choreboy> I tried to with Adept but it did not finish installing
[01:05] <Choreboy> it had an error, it seems to be PARTIALLY installed
[01:05] <ahmos> hi. what is the patch name that makes icons zoom in when i click them
[01:05] <Choreboy> I never agreed to the EULA
[01:06] <luis> my problem is that without internet, I don't know how to download and install a package :)
[01:06] <yoyoma> hello, i'm running kubuntu 8.04 but i don't get the flashy compiz stuff (cube effect and all).  how do i get that going?
[01:06] <nosrednaekim> yoyoma: system->desktop effects
[01:06] <Choreboy> wait I thought Compiz was not on Kubuntu, just on Ubuntu
[01:06] <nosrednaekim> Choreboy: it works on kubuntu too
[01:07] <Choreboy> shows what I know
[01:07] <luis> now, I'm using the old kubuntu right now at the same computer, I'd like to know how to download the package br2684ctl so I can reboot in kubuntu 8.04 and then install it
[01:07] <Choreboy> which is very little unfortunately
[01:07] <yoyoma> ok, i've done that.... installed and told it extra effects
[01:07] <nosrednaekim> luis: ok... one second
[01:07] <yoyoma> i still don't get the cube or anything spectacular looking
[01:07] <yoyoma> my minimize and maximize looks cool though
[01:07] <nosrednaekim> yoyoma: ok... did you try Ctrl+alt+arrow?
[01:07] <yoyoma> yeah.  i get a little rectangle in the middle with arrows on it
[01:07] <yoyoma> not a 3d cube that looks cool
[01:08] <nosrednaekim> yoyoma: or you can just set it to custom and install compizconfig-settings-manager
[01:08] <nosrednaekim> yoyoma: ah ok... its got the wrong plugin set up
[01:08] <nosrednaekim> ccsm should fix that
[01:08] <lwizardl> hi
[01:08] <lwizardl> anyone here have a Digiwave or Twinhan 103G DVB card?
[01:08] <yoyoma> apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager
[01:08] <nosrednaekim> Choreboy: ok, try installing java again, and agree to the EULA
[01:08] <nosrednaekim> yoyoma: with a sudo, yes
[01:08] <Choreboy> so uninstall (if possible) then reinstall?
[01:09] <Choreboy> hopefully I can un-do whatever it has done
[01:09] <dwidmann> These random reboots are driving me *crazy*
[01:09] <Jucato> Choreboy: uninstall isn't always the answer. where are you now? I mean what problem?
[01:09] <mneptok> Choreboy: use a terminal
[01:09] <Choreboy> I don't know how to use terminal :-(
[01:09] <mneptok> Choreboy: sudo apt-get install sun-java6-plugin
[01:09] <Choreboy> I am Linux retarded.
[01:09] <Jucato> Choreboy: we'll guide you
[01:09] <mneptok> Choreboy: good thing i just told you
[01:10] <o0Chris0o> whats the off topic channel? also..whats kde4 channel?
[01:10] <Choreboy> ok sudo apt-get here I come
[01:10] <Jucato> you just have to type in or copy-paste the commands
[01:10] <Jucato> o0Chris0o: #kubuntu-offtopic and #kubuntu-kde4 respectively
[01:10] <Choreboy> i've done a sudo apt-get install before
[01:10] <yoyoma> nosrednaekim: sweet.  i see a zillion options now.  thanks!
[01:10] <nosrednaekim> luis: I'm not seeing a package by that name in hardy...
[01:11] <Jucato> Choreboy: so you're not as retarded as you think you are :)
[01:11] <lwizardl> I'm trying to install my Digiwave 103G DVB-S card and I don't know what I need to do to install this card. I'm a DVB newbie
[01:11] <o0Chris0o> Jucato: ty
[01:11] <Choreboy> well only because I've been stumbling along blindly, I don't exactly know what I'm doing I just try random things :-)
[01:11] <luis> no?
[01:12] <Choreboy> E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable)
[01:12] <nosrednaekim> lwizardl: check out th hardware support page.,.unfortunately the bot is not with us right now so you'll have to google it up
[01:12] <luis> well, I'had that package with the old kubuntu 7.10
[01:12] <nosrednaekim> Choreboy: close any package managers...
[01:12] <nosrednaekim> !aptfix
[01:12] <mneptok> Choreboy: close Synaptic or any other package management apps
[01:12] <Choreboy> I had Adept open. My bad.
[01:12] <Jucato> Choreboy: close Adept if it is running
[01:12]  * Jucato nods
[01:13]  * mneptok notices what channel this is
[01:13] <yoyoma> holy cow this is cool
[01:13]  * Jucato notices mneptok is in here :)
[01:13] <yoyoma> thanks a bunch.  time for dinner
[01:13] <mneptok> yoyoma: what video card?
[01:13] <yoyoma> eh... nothing good right now
[01:13] <yoyoma> my radeon died the other day
[01:13] <mneptok> that's not an answer
[01:13] <yoyoma> this is an older gforce
[01:14] <mneptok> sudo spt-get install nvidia-settings
[01:14] <mneptok> *apt
[01:14] <mneptok> kinda like compizconfig-settings-manager for your vidcard
[01:14] <yoyoma> sweet
[01:14] <Jucato> mneptok: nvidia-settings conflicts with nvidia-glx stuff
[01:14] <Choreboy> I'm still locked
[01:14] <Jucato> iirc
[01:14] <nosrednaekim> !aptfix
[01:14] <Jucato> !aptfix | Choreboy
[01:14] <mneptok> Jucato: oh? working here.
[01:14] <Choreboy> and I've closed Adept
[01:15] <yoyoma> ok, one thing's gotta go.  now whatever window the mouse is over gets focus without clicking.
[01:15] <Jucato> nosrednaekim: it helps if you pipe the factoids to people during busy hours :)
[01:15] <nosrednaekim> yoyoma: general->focus IIRC
[01:15] <mneptok> yoyoma: FFM
[01:15] <Jucato> mneptok: oh I thought... it was before.. aaanyway :)
[01:15] <mneptok> Jucato: maybe nvidia-glx-legacy? i can see the config panel choking on a Riva TNT. ;)
[01:16] <Jucato> oh yeah.. maybe legacy :)
[01:16] <yoyoma> nosrednaekim: that was it.  thanks.
[01:16] <yoyoma> mneptok: what's FFM?
[01:16] <mneptok> "You want me to do WHAT?! Dude! I'm *so* 1998!"
[01:16] <mneptok> yoyoma: focus follows mouse
[01:17] <Choreboy> Package sun-java6-plugin is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[01:17] <Choreboy> This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
[01:17] <Choreboy> is only available from another source
[01:17] <yoyoma> mneptok: ok.  got that disabled... that was annoying.
[01:17] <rrr3> hmmm
[01:17] <mneptok> Choreboy: you'll need to enable the Multiverse repo and update
[01:17] <luis> give me a hint, how can I download a package so I can reboot later and install it
[01:18] <luis> ?
[01:18] <yoyoma> i got a crash.  i better restart X
[01:18] <rrr3> what is GLX exactly
[01:18] <Choreboy> say one were to enable a Multiverse repository, how would one go about doing that
[01:18] <Jaso> !mp3
[01:18] <Jucato> mneptok: shouldn't uni and multi be enabled by default since feisty?
[01:18] <Jucato> Choreboy: are you an a 64-bit system?
[01:18] <Choreboy> yes
[01:19] <Choreboy> 64 bit dualcore AMD
[01:19] <robotgeek> ah :)
[01:19] <Jucato> no wonder :)
[01:19] <nosrednaekim> ^_^
[01:19] <alexandra> Hi all
[01:19] <Choreboy> ah now it all makes so much sense!
[01:19] <Choreboy> wait no it doesnt....
[01:19] <Choreboy> Java doesn't work on 64 bit?
[01:20] <yoyoma> how come you can't have more than one desktop in kde?
[01:20] <Jucato> the sun-java6-plugin doesn't
[01:20] <Choreboy> ahhh
[01:20] <Choreboy> well I guess that's my bad for not mentioning it, I didn't realize it would be a problem
[01:20] <Choreboy> but hey everyone I gotta say I really appreciate all the effort helping me out on this stuff.
[01:20] <yoyoma> Choreboy:  these people are great
[01:20] <Jucato> Choreboy: Flash and Java have problems on 64-bit. as well as win32codecs stuff
[01:21] <yoyoma> i pop in every now and then with some stupid problem, and they save me hours of googling
[01:21] <Choreboy> yeah hopefully when I learn Linux better I can help out some other no0b
[01:21] <Jucato> Choreboy: I think there are some docs that point out how to make Java work on 64-bit
[01:21] <yoyoma> hehe
[01:21] <Jucato> !64bit
[01:21] <Jucato> see that link Choreboy ^^^ it might help
[01:21] <Choreboy> can do, thanks
[01:21] <robotgeek> Choreboy: if you are new to Linux, I would recommend going 32 bit first
[01:21] <luis> hi
[01:22] <Choreboy> I didn't know I would crop up with problems I just wanted to get the best performance possible
[01:22] <nosrednaekim> luis: hi... sorry, couldn't find that package
[01:22] <nosrednaekim> !info br2684ctl
[01:22] <Choreboy> as a matter of fact I think i remember something about using a different kernel for dual core... would that have installed automatically with the AMD64 Kubuntu?
[01:22] <nosrednaekim> Choreboy: if you have less that 4Gigs of ram, you won't nitice a performance difference
[01:23] <nosrednaekim> luis: oh.. there is it...
[01:23] <luis> how can I download it, so I can reboot later in the new kubuntu and install it?
[01:23] <nosrednaekim> !packages | luis
[01:23] <Choreboy> Well I will have 4gb in the future but at the moment, notsomuch.
[01:23] <nosrednaekim> luis: go to that website a search for it
[01:24] <nosrednaekim> Choreboy: then go 32 bit
[01:24] <yoyoma> What's a "meta mode" in NVIDIA-X Server Settings?
[01:24] <nosrednaekim> Later guys... dinner time
[01:24] <luis> my problem is that my modem doesn't work yet
[01:24] <yoyoma> bye, thanks for the help
[01:24] <mneptok> Choreboy: you installed the AMD64 version?
[01:24] <Choreboy> yessum.
[01:24] <Choreboy> I thought that's what all the kool kids were doing.
[01:24] <mneptok> Choreboy: NO FLASH FOR YOU!
[01:24] <Choreboy> ouch.
[01:25] <robotgeek> lol
[01:25] <Choreboy> I thought I read something that flash would work even on the 64 bit system?
[01:25] <mneptok> well, you get Gnash. Gnash is to Flash what RuPaul is to Natalie Portman.
[01:25] <rrr3> openaI use flash on amd64
[01:25] <Choreboy> I thought I came across that on Java.com somewhere
[01:25] <robotgeek> lol
[01:25] <rrr3> I use flash on amd64

[01:28] <mneptok> rrr3: only Gnash when you go to about:plugins in Firefox?
[01:29] <Jucato> Jaso: if you are using Feisty or later versions, multiverse should be already enabled by default

[01:29] <rrr3> application/x-shockwave-flash 	Shockwave Flash 	swf 	Yes

[01:30] <Fa> lol
[01:30] <rrr3> harris: I dont think there is difference ubuntu vs kubuntu, besides that one have "kde" installed by default
[01:30] <robotgeek> Choreboy: yes, if it works, you don't have a problem :)
[01:30] <Choreboy> that's all good and well for Flash but I don't have Java
[01:30] <Fa> i don't like gnome
[01:30] <mneptok> harris: 1). we already answered. - 2). it's Ubuntu. it's a name, not an acronym. :)
[01:30] <harris> yessssss         BUT i cant find the adept manager in UBUNTU
[01:30] <Fa> my name is ubuntu
[01:30] <Fa> lol

[01:30] <mneptok> harris: Synaptic
[01:30] <mneptok> harris: Synaptic
[01:30] <mneptok> harris: Synaptic
[01:30] <rrr3> Fa: gnome - user can't even set different background per desktop
[01:30] <mneptok> ^^^ READ PLEASE ^^^

[01:32] <Fa> harris just download ubuntu
[01:32] <Fa> lol
[01:32] <genii> harris: I think several ppl have told you "Synaptic"
[01:32] <Choreboy> Synaptic in Ubuntu, Adept in Kubuntu.
[01:32] <harris> ahhhhhhhhhhhh OK!!!
[01:32] <harris> Synaptic is a software
[01:32] <BluesKaj> gawd

[01:32] <Jaso> i can't get multiverse.
[01:32] <rrr3> hector: you must pay 5 USD each time you use more then one cap while typing "Ubuntu".
[01:32] <genii> Jucato: hehe
[01:32] <Choreboy> Harris you got yelled at by a bot hahahaha
[01:32] <rrr3> hector: its there in the license
[01:33] <dwidmann> xev says that control_L and shift_L are being pressed when I'm not even touching the keyboard!
[01:33] <robotgeek> rrr3: you must pay 5$ for using the wrong name :)
[01:33] <BluesKaj> Jucato, there otta be an age limit
[01:33] <mneptok> "Give me puberty or give me death."
[01:33] <Fa> i am a bot
[01:33] <harris> hehehehehehe thnxxx
[01:33] <Fa> beep beep
[01:33] <harris> kill BOT
[01:33] <Choreboy> can you do robot dance?
[01:33]  * Fa dies
[01:33] <Choreboy> "We lost many a good killbot that day."
[01:33] <rrr3> kill all humans
[01:33] <Jucato> hm.. ok.. enough with the offtopic ok?
[01:33] <robotgeek> pretty funny, but i remind ppl of #kubuntu-offtopic
[01:34] <Choreboy> Sorry gang, but was my final answer that there will be no Java for me using 64bit?
[01:34] <Fa> ok what is java?
[01:34] <Jaso> coreymon77: hey
[01:34] <Fa> is that coffee for your computer?
[01:34] <robotgeek> !java > Fa
[01:34] <rrr3> Fa: a language and SDK, that becomed GPL 5 years too late
[01:34] <Fa> i'm kidding
[01:34] <Fa> hehe
[01:34] <dwidmann> Choreboy: use ia32-sun-java6* and a 32-bit browser
[01:35] <Jucato> Choreboy: didn't you read the URL I gave earlier?
[01:35] <dwidmann> Choreboy: assuming what you want is the plugin
[01:35] <mneptok> Choreboy: for 64-bit you're going to use IcedTea
[01:35] <Choreboy> yes the plugin will do fine
[01:35] <Fa> i only need flash
[01:35] <Choreboy> IcedTea instead. I'll give that a shot
[01:35] <mneptok> Choreboy: sudo apt-get install icedtea-java7-plugin
[01:35] <robotgeek> icedtea, wow i have been away too long
[01:35] <Jucato> robotgeek: indeed :)
[01:36] <Jucato> robotgeek: it pays to have your feeds/mail online even when not on IRC :P
[01:36] <Jaso> !mp3
[01:36] <Jaso> agh...
[01:36] <Jaso> !wubi
[01:36] <robotgeek> i have all the feeds and the mail, just not enough time earlier. i am hoping to get back in the game shortly
[01:36] <harris> oKAY what's Is K in KDE?
[01:37] <dwidmann> rrr3: depending on how you look at it, even later, seein as there still hasn't been a gpl'd release
[01:37] <Jucato> harris: it was previously "Kool", but that name only lasted a few days. now it's just "K"
[01:37] <yoyoma> ok, i got the desktop effects working, but X crashed and i had to restart X.  now, the effects aren't working, even though they're installed and "i believe" enabled
[01:37] <Fa> K for kamakazi
[01:37] <Jucato> harris: read stuff in www.kde.org if you want to know more
[01:37] <harris> which is better KDE or GNOME?
[01:38] <robotgeek> harris: originally Kool, but now stands for KDE
[01:38] <Jucato> !better | harris
[01:38] <Fa> depends harris
[01:38] <harris> heheheeehe u BOT
[01:39] <Choreboy> oh my sweet Torvalds! <tab> <enter> worked!!
[01:39] <genii> harris: Neither window manager is really better or worse than the other. It just depends on how you like to interact with your computer.
[01:39] <Fa> i have to agree
[01:39] <Fa> i prefer kde obviously
[01:40] <Choreboy> While I brew myself some IcedTea, can someone please tell me again where to go for desktop effects?
[01:40] <yoyoma> System -> Desktop Effects
[01:40] <robotgeek> Choreboy: K-Menu ->  system -> Desktop effects
[01:40] <robotgeek> :)
[01:41] <yoyoma> robotgeek:  do you know why they would not be working, even if enabled?  they worked a few minutes ago until X server crashed.  i rebooted to xfix and now they're not working
[01:41] <Choreboy> I went to SYSTEM, there is no Desktop Effects in there.
[01:41] <yoyoma> Are you on 8.04?
[01:41] <Choreboy> yep
[01:41] <yoyoma> hmm
[01:41] <yoyoma> what ver of KDE?
[01:41] <Choreboy> K>System>nada
[01:41] <Choreboy> KDE4
[01:41] <yoyoma> oh... hmm
[01:42] <yoyoma> try lost and found or something like that
[01:42] <Choreboy> maybe somewhere in system settings?
[01:42] <robotgeek> kde4 might have it in a different place
[01:42] <Jucato> Choreboy: I don't think it's available for KDE 4 though
[01:42] <yoyoma> KDE4 hasn't won me over at all... since the fonts are like .000004mm tall in it
[01:42] <Jucato> try asking in #kubuntu-kde4
[01:42] <Fa> it's not Jucato
[01:42] <Choreboy> alright let me see what they have to say about it
[01:43] <dwidmann> Does anybody, anybody at all, have any idea why my keyboard is getting random keypresses that shouldn't be happening? It's *very* annoying
[01:43] <Choreboy> spilled soda.
[01:43] <yoyoma> robotgeek:  i think i figured it out.  i think the xfix removed the 3d proprietary nvida driver
[01:43] <robotgeek> yoyoma: ah okay.
[01:44] <Choreboy> alright here's a fun question.. how do I get into a different IRC channel?
[01:44] <robotgeek> Choreboy: /j #kubuntu-offtopic
[01:44] <mneptok>  /join #channelname
[01:44] <genii> Choreboy: /j #channelname
[01:44] <Jucato> oh for goodness' sake! just click on the channel name :P
[01:44] <robotgeek> dwidmann: is this a laptop? which os are you running? erc etc
[01:44] <dwidmann> robotgeek: no, kubuntu hardy
[01:45] <robotgeek> dwidmann: is it random in the sense that different keys appear, or type when nothing is hit?
[01:45] <Fa> hardy boys
[01:46] <dwidmann> robotgeek: specifically it is the left and right control keys, it's random in the sense that I didn't push the keys,k I found out because konqueror access keys nuts, so I ran xev and let it sit a few minutes
[01:47] <yoyoma> this is ironic.  kde3+compiz is running much, much more smoothly on this old geforce 5200 than it did on my year old radeon
[01:48] <aaroncampbell> My printer quit working after the upgrade to 8.04.  Here is some dmesg output: http://paste2.org/p/23921
[01:49] <dwidmann> wow, I'm typing rather unintelligbly today
[01:50] <reagleBRKLN> hi, just installed 8.04 on my system. alsamixer and kplayer works fine as root, but as a user I get alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device
[01:50] <robotgeek> dwidmann: i am trying to lookup bugs on launchpad
[01:50] <rrr3> reagleBRKLN: try adding self to audio group and re-loggingin
[01:50] <reagleBRKLN> is there someway to specify the device
[01:50] <Dr_willis> aaroncampbell,  mine stops working, till i unplug/plug it back in.. its getting on my nerves
[01:50] <reagleBRKLN> rrr3: yes, did that
[01:51] <robotgeek> dwidmann: while you wait, paste the output of the command "xprop -root | grep XKB"
[01:51] <aaroncampbell> Dr_willis: it's a network printer
[01:51] <Dr_willis> aaroncampbell,  im thinking theres some deeper cups issue going on. the printer-icon-status thing says it cant 'write to directory'
[01:51] <aaroncampbell> Dr_willis: Actually, my bluetooth kb/mouse doesn't work until I unplug the dongle and plug it back in...
[01:51] <dwidmann> robotgeek: _XKB_RULES_NAMES(STRING) = "xorg", "pc105", "us", "", ""
[01:52] <robotgeek> dwidmann: i have the same thing. are you sure your keyboard works okay?
[01:52] <reagleBRKLN> as user: alsamixer /dev/snd/controlC0 -> alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device
[01:52] <reagleBRKLN> but it does exist
[01:52] <reagleBRKLN> crw-rw----+ 1 root audio 116, 0 Apr 28 20:36 /dev/snd/controlC0
[01:53] <Choreboy> OK FYI everyone I got my answer, there is no Compiz on KDE4 by default
[01:53] <genii> aaroncampbell: I'm pretty sure it's this bug here https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cupsys/+bug/153003
[01:53] <dwidmann> robotgeek: with the exception of the random ctrl_l and shift_l thing, yes, it works okay
[01:53] <reagleBRKLN> i am in audio, and have relogged in
[01:53] <robotgeek> dwidmann: i mean physically, say on a different OS
[01:53] <dwidmann> robotgeek: I don't use other OSs.
[01:53] <rrr3> Choreboy: so how to get compiz in kde
[01:53] <rrr3> how to get compiz in kde on ubuntu 8.04 amd64
[01:54] <Dr_willis> !compiz
[01:54] <robotgeek> dwidmann: okay, what about from a live cd?
[01:55] <dwidmann> this keyboard has _always_ worked in the past, ie, pre-hardy
[01:55] <Dr_willis> KDE4 has its own alternative to compiz, thus kde4 dosent need compiz
[01:55] <robotgeek> dwidmann: okay, i would recommend you to file a bug. sorry!
[01:55] <robotgeek> !bug
[01:55] <Jaso> while trying to install my wireless card... i got this error http://pastebin.com/m2dd3c5c5 from http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=405990

[01:57] <rignes> Hello everyone.
[01:57] <rignes> Is it true, the rumor I hear, that KDE4 and KDE3 can co-exist on the same computer w/o screwing eachother up?
[01:57] <robotgeek> Jaso: sudo apt-get install python-gtk2
[01:57] <Fa> err rignes i tried that
[01:57] <Jaso> f
[01:57] <Fa> not good lol
[01:57] <rignes> Hehe
[01:58] <rignes> See, that's why I wanted to ask.
[01:58] <Choreboy> o noes! Someone help! I tried to activate desktop effects and now I'm stuck in an endless login loop!!
[01:58] <Fa> just one big mess
[01:58] <Jaso> coreymon77: are you there?
[01:58] <rignes> I have Hardy all setup, the stable "desktop" version.  I don't want to ruin all my tweaking.
[01:58] <rignes> I'll just have to find a spare system or try the alternative install in a VM or something.
[01:59] <Fa> rignes i tried it trust me
[01:59] <Fa> lol
[01:59] <Choreboy> Anyone?   What sort of funkieness did you see when you tried?
[02:01] <Fa> just one big mess
[02:01] <rignes> Hehe
[02:01] <Fa> i didn't play with it too long
[02:02] <rignes> Ok, I'll stick with KDE3 + Compiz.
[02:02] <robotgeek> Choreboy: do you have nvidia/ati/intel?
[02:02] <zero88> How do you set automount?
[02:02] <Fa> if you're happy don't change it
[02:02] <rignes> Not gonna.
[02:02] <Choreboy> I have AMD with onboard graphics
[02:02] <rignes> Not after all the tweaking time I just spent.
[02:02] <Fa> lol
[02:03] <robotgeek> Choreboy: okay.
[02:03] <Fa> is there a way to back up entire partition?
[02:03] <rignes> Clonezilla?
[02:03] <rignes> Partimage?
[02:03] <comboman> I've written my own shell (for a project) and I need to test the input redirection of it, anyone know any good linux commands I could use to test the input redirection?
[02:03] <mrmonkeyman> is there no disks and file systems in 8.04?
[02:03] <genii> dd?
[02:04] <rignes> Speaking of clonezilla...I should make an image of this laptop..just incase.
[02:04] <comboman> what is dd?
[02:04] <Fa> lol rignes
[02:04] <robotgeek> Choreboy: is you hit ctrl + alt + f1, you should get a terminal
[02:05] <Braeloch> I have a problem, between Kubuntu and my widescreen monitor. I could use some help.
[02:05] <robotgeek> Braeloch: is it a 1680x1050 ?
[02:05] <Braeloch> robotgeek: 1440x900
[02:05] <crash_> is there a command I need to run after inserting a cardbus device in order to make kubuntu "see" it?
[02:06] <mrmonkeyman> what is the problem Braeloch I have the same screen
[02:06] <Choreboy> robotgeek: cntrl+alt+F1 just locked it up
[02:06] <Choreboy> at the login screen
[02:06] <robotgeek> Choreboy: eeks
[02:07] <Choreboy> eeks is right. Hard reset.
[02:07] <Braeloch> mrmonkeyman: When I boot into Kubuntu, everything is piled up on the right-hand side of my screen. It will not take advantage of the full widescreen 8:5 aspect ratio. (For the record, my video card is nVidia 8500 GT and the drivers are up to date.)
[02:07] <mrmonkeyman> Is there anything like kio-sysinfo that is working on 8.04?
[02:09] <DarkShinigami> How do I update GRUB?
[02:09] <mrmonkeyman> what version of kubuntu are you using?
[02:09] <reagleBRKLN> so, i can play an mp3 as a user with xine and here it, but not with mplayer or in kde apps... what could that be?
[02:10] <Braeloch> mrmonkeyman: 8-point-something.
[02:10] <bazhang> !grub | DarkShinigami
[02:10] <robotgeek> reagleBRKLN: kde apps, as in kaffeine?
[02:11] <mrmonkeyman> K give me a sec
[02:11] <dwidmann> robotgeek: Well, I think I'll give the evdev driver a try before I go reporting bugs, if I remember right I have had this problem before and that's what I did ..... which would make it a kbd driver problem
[02:11] <Braeloch> mrmonkeyman: k
[02:12] <robotgeek> dwidmann: ah okay. cool
[02:12] <reagleBRKLN> aha, working now, will try a reboot and see if it hold
[02:13] <DarkShinigami> I didn't lose GRUB. I didn't update the kernel in menu.lst
[02:14] <mrmonkeyman> What does is say on System Settings/ Display?
[02:14] <Choreboy> is there a way to undo what I did to get the computer in the login loop?
[02:14] <Choreboy> because ctrl+alt+F1 is still locking it up at the login screen
[02:15] <Braeloch> mrmonkeyman: I am not logged into Kubuntu at the moment, because I don't know how to access IRC from it yet. (I am brand new to Kubuntu, having installed it on the recommendation of a friend who thought I'd enjoy a new experience.)
[02:15] <dwidmann> robotgeek: though ... I really should still report that bug, shoudl have done it two months ago and then I woudln't be dealing with it right now
[02:16] <robotgeek> dwidmann: yes you should :)
[02:16] <robotgeek> later
[02:16] <mrmonkeyman> oh, well in that case
[02:16] <mrmonkeyman> check there and make sure the resolution is correct
[02:16] <affan> hi all.... i am using Broadcom 4306 card for wireless. Do I have to use ndiswrapper? I remember last time i installed Kubuntu it worked without it
[02:17] <Braeloch> mrmonkeyman: How do I access System Settings?
[02:17] <mrmonkeyman> Also, I noticed on mine when I installed it that the whole screen was to the right as well and I changed the settings on the monitor itself
[02:18] <mrmonkeyman> I have it on my favorites
[02:19] <Braeloch> mrmonkeyman: When I tried to change the monitor itself, the menu display showed the screen was moving according to the changes I was making but Kubuntu itself didn't move at all.
[02:20] <crash__> holy wootness! My wifi card decided to work!!
[02:21] <mrmonkeyman> then check the settings on a terminal type systemsettings
[02:21] <mrmonkeyman> to open it
[02:22] <Dr_willis> affan,  if it dident need it befor.. I doubt if it needs it now.
[02:22] <Dr_willis> affan,  there have been a lot of changes to the broadcom drivers however.
[02:23] <Choreboy> Can anyone help? My system is a giant toaster now :-(
[02:23] <crash__> I have some pop-tarts..
[02:23] <affan> Dr_willis: are there drivers for linux available from broadcom, do you know?
[02:23] <Choreboy> my cdrom refuses to toast.
[02:23] <Prem> Need help with wireless setup in Kubuntu 8.04 KDE 4
[02:23] <Dr_willis> affan,  I just had to in stall the bw fw cutter tools and my card worked.
[02:24] <Prem> I have Broadcom Wireless cards
[02:25] <Dr_willis> theres DOZENS of types of broadcom cards. :)
[02:25] <Prem> Can you walk through the setup?
[02:25] <Dr_willis> its the chipset of the card thats imporntant
[02:25] <Choreboy> huzzah I have logged into console! Now can someone tell me where to go from there to undo the damage I did by enabling desktop effects?
[02:25] <Prem> Broadcom BCM4312
[02:26] <Prem> I got the "bcm43xx-fwcutter_20060108-6build1_amd64.deb"
[02:26] <Braeloch> mrmonkeyman: I'm going to log into Kubuntu. This is retarded, trying to jump back and forth. I'm hoping kvirc proves to be a capable IRC client. If so, I'll be back here in a few moments.
[02:26] <Prem> installing this will solve my problem?
[02:27] <Dr_willis> Prem,  depends on your wireless cards specific chipset.
[02:27] <Prem> how do I find that?
[02:27] <mrmonkeyman> ok I'm using konversation
[02:27] <Dr_willis> Prem,  i dont download specific debs. i grabbed the  b43-fwcutter - Utility for extracting Broadcom 43xx firmware
[02:27] <Dr_willis>   for my card
[02:27] <Dr_willis> !wireless
[02:29] <Prem> there are so many docs there
[02:29] <Prem> which to look into?
[02:30] <mrmonkeyman> Is there an application for 8.04 that works like disks and filesystems did on 7.10?
[02:30] <Choreboy> my poor shiny new system is fubar.
[02:31] <rrr3> Choreboy: hehe
[02:32] <rrr3> Choreboy: have same problem
[02:32] <rrr3> I installed the desktop effects and ubuntu  FAILED
[02:32] <rrr3> massivly
[02:32] <rrr3> Choreboy: report bug to lunchpad, eventually someone will fix then
[02:32] <Choreboy> is there a way to undo the latest system changes? A system restore, if you will..
[02:32] <Choreboy> I can't report a bug to anyone anywhere, I can't get on my syste
[02:32] <rrr3> Choreboy: I guess you want to disable Xgl, googld how to do that.  afair, like  /etc/Xgl/disabled or something
[02:33] <rrr3> Choreboy: report once you can,  or get a laptop / livecd / etc
[02:33] <Choreboy> i have a live CD, can that help me repair my booboo?
[02:33] <affan_> Dr_willis: i just installed fwcutter and it worked!!
[02:34] <rrr3> Choreboy: first, report the bug, so that developers will know they failed. then they may fix it even :)
[02:34] <mrmonkeyman> Choreboy, rrr3 go there http://monkeyland.samutz.com/?page_id=25
[02:34] <rrr3> Choreboy: if you can't even go to console, then livecd would be helpfull
[02:34] <mrmonkeyman> it's not a bug
[02:34] <Dr_willis> affan_,  magical eh? :)
[02:34] <mrmonkeyman> your xorg.conf file is just messed up
[02:34] <Choreboy> I a in console now
[02:34] <Choreboy> but I don't know what to do
[02:34] <affan_> Dr_willis: let me restart and see if the magic holds ;)
[02:35] <mrmonkeyman>  Choreboy, rrr3 go there http://monkeyland.samutz.com/?page_id=25
[02:35] <rrr3> mrmonkeyman: yeah
[02:35] <Dr_willis> Well so far under hardy.. I got Samba share browsing constantly breaking.. and my printer keeps gettting lost... :(
[02:35] <Choreboy> mrmonkeyman: thanks, but I fail to see what that has to do with my login loop problem?
[02:36] <rrr3> Dr_willis: I found a number of failures in ubuntu 8.04, using it only today
[02:36] <rrr3> Dr_willis: report them all
[02:36] <Dr_willis> rrr3,  i had reported them.. ages ago.
[02:36] <aaroncampbell> genii: Thanks for that link to the appArmour printing bug, it WAS the problem, and I can print again.  You don't have any magic solutions for sound that stopped working do you?
[02:36] <rrr3> Dr_willis: then bug developers
[02:37] <Daisuke-Ido> Dr_willis: thank you, you just reminded me i have to re-set up my printer :)
[02:37] <Dr_willis> rrr3,  i cant seem to figure out the cause. cant find any rhyme or reason for why its doing it.
[02:37] <mrmonkeyman> your login loop problem is because when you log in it tries to load the desktop effects but fails and takes you back to login screen
[02:37] <genii> aaroncampbell: Hehe if Intel HDA possibly
[02:37] <rrr3> Dr_willis: bug cannonical to get moving, or stop lying that the system is mature and stable
[02:37] <Choreboy> KDE4 desktop effects, nothing to do with Compiz
[02:37] <mrmonkeyman> so you need to disable the desktop effects through console which only way to do that is by fixking the xorg.conf file
[02:37] <Dr_willis> rrr3,  should i demand a refund also!
[02:37] <genii> aaroncampbell: There is an !intelhda factoid here for solving that one
[02:37] <Dr_willis> :)
[02:37] <rrr3> Dr_willis: well, it is 250 usd for the support
[02:37] <Prem> Dr_willis I'm lost in Doc list
[02:38] <Prem> for Wifi
[02:38] <Choreboy> fix the xorg.conf file, check. I have no idea what that means but it sounds like the right thing to do.
[02:38] <aaroncampbell> genii: I'm pretty sure that's what I did with gutsy, but it didn't seem to work with Hardy :|
[02:38] <Dr_willis> Prem,  you know about as much about wifi as I do now.. You are on your own from there. :)
[02:38] <Prem> :)
[02:38] <aaroncampbell> !intelhda
[02:38] <robotgeek> Prem: what card do you have?
[02:38] <mrmonkeyman> kde4 desktop effects is compiz
[02:39] <genii> aaroncampbell: Yeah thats the one. Sound issues are not my strong area normally however.
[02:39] <aaroncampbell> Thanks
[02:39] <Choreboy> you sure? #Kubuntu-KDE4 told me there is no Compiz
[02:39] <mrmonkeyman> go to /etc/X11/
[02:39] <klobster> I got issues with dpkg, it kicks out an error with exit status 139.  Any ideas?
[02:39] <klobster> and hi
[02:40] <mrmonkeyman> its' the same thing, does the same thing
[02:40] <mrmonkeyman> ubuntu did the same thing since i don't know what version where they put nice
[02:40] <mrmonkeyman> button that said enable desktop effects
[02:40] <Dr_willis> KDE4 has its own alternative to compiz.
[02:40] <mrmonkeyman> which would install compiz
[02:40] <mrmonkeyman> yes but it does the same thing
[02:40] <Dr_willis> Its not 'compiz' however.
[02:41] <mrmonkeyman> its' still 3d desktop effects
[02:41] <Dr_willis> actually it has less features then compiz
[02:41] <Dr_willis> its not the compiz program, or code. its a similer feature. - if you want kde and compiz, use kde3 and install the compiz stuff.
[02:42] <mrmonkeyman> but if it messes up just like compiz does do you not fix it the same way as u do compiz
[02:42] <klobster> what is the command for the running process gui?
[02:42] <mrmonkeyman> by taking out all the extra stuff on xorg.conf
[02:43] <Dr_willis> My xorg.conf is about as minimal as they get.
[02:43] <rrr3> lol they really failed
[02:43] <Dr_willis> I dont know what you would do in xorg.conf go 'fix' compiz really. Ive never had to do so.
[02:43] <rrr3> everyone seems to have this "uh I will try this cool 3d stuff...  AYEEEEEE my desktop is borked!!!!"  problem.
[02:43] <klobster> also, now when I run a nonexistant command in kstart -> run, it opens a firefox window searching for it?!?
[02:44] <Dr_willis> Compiz is still very much a work in progress
[02:44] <toyo|desk> is there a way that I can remove KDE3 and only have KDE 4
[02:44] <Dr_willis> toyo|desk,  given the lack of features of kde4, you proberly dont want to just use kde4
[02:44] <klobster> also i borked webmin
[02:44] <toyo|desk> oh I see
[02:44] <toyo|desk> Dr_willis, but it is technically possible?
[02:45] <klobster> and i am still on gutsy
[02:45] <mrmonkeyman> then how would one disable the desktop effects?
[02:46] <Dr_willis> toyo|desk,  of course.. theres even a kubuntu isntall cd that has kde4 instead of kde3
[02:46] <toyo|desk> oh ok
[02:46] <toyo|desk> hmm well then
[02:46] <Dr_willis> mrmonkeyman,  kde4 has some setting tools/check box's to disable all that stuff.
[02:46] <toyo|desk> I will look into that later I think
[02:46] <toyo|desk> :D
[02:46] <mrmonkeyman> yeah but u need to be in gui to check that
[02:47] <toyo|desk> anyway bbl
[02:47] <Choreboy> I have to go, gang. Thanks for the help. I have not fixed this problem though, so you may see me in the near future
[02:47] <Dr_willis> mrmonkeyman,  err.. so? Ive totally lost the point of this discussion now...  was there an original problem?
[02:48] <Choreboy> but at the moment this Linux user needs to go get some luvins. Yes, rare... but it does happen.
[02:48] <mrmonkeyman> yes, desktop effects are not working to the point where you can't log into the gui
[02:49] <Dr_willis> mrmonkeyman,  compiz has a speficic file/setting in the users home dir - that can disable compiz,  thats not having anything to do with exiting the xorg.conf file. as for kde4's settings. No idea there. I dont mess with kde4 . ask in the kde4 channel if they have a similer feature.
[02:50] <michael__> Why is the KDE web browser so slow?
[02:50] <mrmonkeyman> k, I was trying to help choreboy he was the one with the problem
[02:50] <Fa> is it?
[02:50] <michael__> It's slow compared to Firefox
[02:50] <Dr_willis> ive totally missed the original problem then. :)
[02:51] <mrmonkeyman> Now if you want to know my problem though, its that I cannot find disks and file systems on 8.04 with kde4
[02:52] <mrmonkeyman> in the system settings
[02:52] <michael__> I'm upgrading to 8.04 now
[02:52] <Fa> have fun michael
[02:52] <michael__> It's almost done with the download
[02:53] <michael__> I had regular Ubuntu Hardy but I decided to go with the KDE version
[02:53] <Dr_willis> I went back to gnome... and realized WHY i gave up on gnome now.
[02:53] <Dr_willis> The gnome file manager just dosent 'work' the way I work... :) with managing files.
[02:54] <michael__> I usually use the best from both desktops
[02:54] <michael__> works best that way
[02:55] <michael__> I don't really like the Dolphin file manager
[02:55] <Dr_willis> yea. but its the default gnome file manager i have issues with. :)
[02:55] <michael__> See I like the default Gnome file manager
[02:55] <mrmonkeyman> what is the best way of managing hard drives and partions with kde?
[02:55] <michael__> Dolphin is a pain because if you go to the root you have to login as root
[02:55] <Dr_willis> and how it does this 'shift click to move/select a range' stuff..is constantly messing up on me.. I go back to using mc in a terminal window.
[02:56] <Dr_willis> mrmonkeyman,  manage how? Ive used the parted tools to resize, and alter them and so forth.
[02:56] <michael__> See when I have Dolphin I use the Xterminal
[02:56] <michael__> It's easier to command line
[02:57] <Dr_willis> I normally remove Dolphin. :)
[02:57] <mrmonkeyman> in that way
[02:57] <michael__> My Kubuntu is on it's own drive as is my XP
[02:58] <michael__> If I could play my games with Wine I would get rid of windows completely
[02:58] <dwidmann> How exactly does KDE's CPU load sensor work with regards to SMP systems? Does it measure the collective load where 100% = all logical CPUs maxed out?
[02:59] <mrmonkeyman> just wanting something more graphical
[02:59] <dwidmann> Dr_willis: d3lphin or dolphin?
[02:59] <genii> dwidmann: On my box it seems to go more like: 1st cpu hits 80-85% other 3 are ~7% each and the load sensor says 25% etc
[03:00] <michael__> We're trying to convince our boss to get rid of Vista on our Machines at work and put Linux on them.  Since most of what we do is browser and remote desktop based
[03:00] <DarkShinigami> How do I shrink the text size for my login? The "asterisk"/dots are big
[03:00] <rignes> Fa: I'm not as impressed by KDE4 as I thought I would be.
[03:00] <dwidmann> genii: I'm going to assume that's a yes
[03:01] <Fa> give it time rignes
[03:01] <genii> dwidmann: Basically yes. Although it doesn't do something like work all cpus equally, it maxes #1 then works on #2, and so on
[03:01] <dwidmann> rignes: a) it may grow on you - b) it's not going to be "complete" until august
[03:01] <lord> hola
[03:02] <dwidmann> genii: which is why I'm using taskset to force things like kcryptd onto #4
[03:02] <genii> dwidmann: Ah, OK :)
[03:02] <rignes> dwidmann: It may.  We'll see. ;)
[03:02] <lord> hola a todosss
[03:02] <rignes> It has a nice smooth look.
[03:02] <lord> alguien que porfa me pueda ayudar muchas gracias
[03:03] <genii> !es | lord
[03:03] <dwidmann> genii: it's really annoying the way it does that like you said ... results in the system slowing down, a lot.
[03:03] <lord> gracias muchas gracias
[03:04] <dwidmann> genii: IMO I shouldn't have to taskset for my system to be usable under load :(
[03:04] <genii> dwidmann: I'd definitely like to see each cpu being used equally instead. Because it puts more load on the first few a lot
[03:04] <genii> (the way it currently is)
[03:05] <Dr_willis> dwidmann,  Both. :)
[03:05] <Dr_willis> work time for me.
[03:07] <dwidmann> genii: I wonder if there are any kernel options to alter how it loads the CPUs
[03:07] <dwidmann> genii: compile time ... that is
[03:07] <genii> dwidmann: No idea
[03:07] <o0Chris0o> kubuntu is pretty cool and all..but some of the settings arent there like on kde3...like screensavers...the configure taskbar..etc
[03:07] <o0Chris0o> weird
[03:08] <mrmonkeyman> it seems more gnome like now like if they don't want you to configure anything
[03:09] <klobster> hello!
[03:09] <o0Chris0o> yeah
[03:09] <o0Chris0o> damn it
[03:09] <o0Chris0o> oops
[03:09] <o0Chris0o> sorry
[03:09] <klobster> adept is giving me issues, any help?
[03:09] <dwidmann> o0Chris0o: KDE4 isn't finished yet, things you're missing now will likely be present in August
[03:09] <Ahmuck> .
[03:10] <dwidmann> mrmonkeyman: sad I know :(
[03:10] <o0Chris0o> I see
[03:10] <o0Chris0o> so I switched to kde4 for nothing :(
[03:10] <o0Chris0o> lol
[03:10] <Braeloch> mrmonkeyman: Well, no luck.
[03:10] <o0Chris0o> how do I install kde3 and get rid of kde4?
[03:10] <o0Chris0o> lol
[03:11] <dwidmann> o0Chris0o: you can still use it some, find some bugs for devs to squash
[03:11] <Braeloch> mrmonkeyman: And I didn't realize you had to teach Kubuntu how to run an install program. I clicked the setup icon for KVIRC and it asked me what program I wanted to associate *.exe files with. So I was left baffled.
[03:11] <Ahmuck> follow the white rabbit
[03:12] <o0Chris0o> dwidmann: yeah I could, but I am not really good bug finding person
[03:12] <mrmonkeyman> if it was a *.exe then you need wine to install it
[03:12] <Braeloch> mrmonkeyman: I'm beginning to suspect you have to be a total geek to enjoy Kubuntu.
[03:13] <aaroncampbell> genii: Found my sound issue: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-driver/+bug/213206
[03:13] <mrmonkeyman> you know, try 7.10 with kde3 and you will enjoy yourself a lot more
[03:13] <RurouniJones> Or it sounded like you downloaded the wrong kvirc binary
[03:13] <genii> aaroncampbell: Looks like you're two for two on solutions so far :)
[03:13] <aaroncampbell> no solution for that one yet :|
[03:13] <mrmonkeyman> I'm finding I'm having to many headaches with this new 8.04 version that I hve not had since 6.06
[03:13] <genii> aaroncampbell: Ah, too bad :(
[03:14] <aaroncampbell> yeah
[03:14] <Braeloch> mrmonkeyman: Anyhow, I found System Settings and checked out the Monitor/Display settings. Everything looked as it should. Resolution was set to 1440x900, refresh rate was correct, it recognized my monitor and video card, etc, etc. And yet this problem.
[03:15] <mrmonkeyman> That's weird, because it sounds like everything is correct to where it should work, I can't think of anything else...Sorry :(
[03:15] <o0Chris0o> whats the difference bentween ubuntu and kubuntu besides the GUI? is gnome pretty good?
[03:15] <mrmonkeyman> gnome is i look pretty but wont let you configure much
[03:15] <mrmonkeyman> its more mac like
[03:16] <o0Chris0o> I see
[03:16] <o0Chris0o> I like the weather feature you can put in the toolbar
[03:16] <Braeloch> mrmonkeyman: I'm baffling anyone I talk to. No worries.
[03:16] <o0Chris0o> and the window sfx
[03:16] <o0Chris0o> when you move em
[03:16] <mrmonkeyman> this new 8.04 with kde4 is feeling like gnome though so right now I could not tell you the real differences
[03:17] <o0Chris0o> so, how do I successfully and completely remove kde4 and downgrade to kde3?
[03:18] <Braeloch> I'd like to know, too
[03:18] <o0Chris0o> I should of just checked it out on Live CD before installing it lol
[03:19] <RurouniJones> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=666568&highlight=remove+kde4
[03:19] <Braeloch> Thanks RurouniJones.
[03:19] <o0Chris0o> ty RurouniJones
[03:19] <o0Chris0o> :)
[03:19] <RurouniJones> There are a few suggestions in that forum.
[03:19] <RurouniJones>  sudo aptitude purge kde4 kde4-core seems to be the most straightforward, note I havent tried these
[03:20] <RurouniJones> There is also a longer set of instructions that has one person saying it worked for them
[03:20] <o0Chris0o> alright, I will give it a try :)
[03:21] <will00> how well does kubuntu cooperate with touchscreens?
[03:21] <klobster> hello, any chance on tech support?
[03:21] <RurouniJones> klobster: Just ask the question, if anyone can help they will
[03:22] <o0Chris0o> I forgot which linux does, some bar room table top games use linux for their os

[03:22] <klobster> I have questions about adept.  exit error status 139.  any help?
[03:22] <o0Chris0o> and they are touchscreens
[03:23] <will00> o0Chris0o iv heard about that
[03:23] <will00> im tryin to set up a new register for my boss, and he wants me to build a cheaper version than the prebuilts
[03:23] <xieo> ive got this odd problem.. the install cd gives me this "buffer i/o error on device fd0." i know it has to do with the floppy, but later on in the install kubuntu doesn't recognize either of my sata drives
[03:24] <xieo> im not sure if the problems are related, but if this problem occurs often, id like to know if theres a work around or something :)
[03:24] <RurouniJones> xieo, what motherboard do you have
[03:24] <RurouniJones> google for your motherboard make and ubuntu + install
[03:24] <xieo> alright, ill give that a go
[03:25] <xieo> thanks
[03:25] <RurouniJones> Sounds like it probably has one of those cheapo SATA RAID chips which aren great
[03:25] <RurouniJones> may be causing an issue
[03:25] <xieo> :/
[03:25] <xieo> i was afraid of htat
[03:26] <o0Chris0o> will00: yeah I wouldn't of ever known they were linux till I had to turn one on and watch it boot up
[03:26] <cahuez> wohooo, i'm doing the kubuntu distro upgrade right now, just 5 hours left to get kubuntu 8.04 done...!!
[03:27] <will00> o0Chris0o, do you have any experience with this
[03:27] <cahuez> but the best part, kubuntu working as usual at my turion_64 chic, hehe..!
[03:27] <o0Chris0o> will00: actually I am pretty new to linux

[03:29] <yoyoma> has anyone got pptp vpn to work in kubuntu 8.04?
[03:29] <o0Chris0o> klobster, you were asked to ask the question
[03:34] <mike> hey
[03:35] <o0Chris0o> well bbl
[03:35] <o0Chris0o> gonna get kde3 back
[03:37] <yoyoma> man, i thought pptp vpn was supposed to be fixed in 8.04
[03:44] <coreymon77> hi guys, im back
[03:46] <yoyoma> sigh
[03:46] <yoyoma> it looks like the 8.04 version of knetworkmanager still doesn't support PPTP VPN connections
[03:46] <yoyoma> this was a big in 7.10 that was supposed to be fixed, i believe
[03:47] <coreymon77> knetworkmanager is a piece of arse
[03:47] <coreymon77> really bad program
[03:47] <coreymon77> always has been
[03:49] <yoyoma> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/knetworkmanager/+bug/151867
[03:50] <yoyoma> that is just frustrating.  pptp (windows vpn server) is probably the most common corporate vpn server type out there... and it's not supported by kubuntu
[03:51] <yoyoma> that's the last piece of the puzzle that keeps me on dual boot kubuntu + xp
[03:53] <sparr__> yoyoma: im connected to a pptp vpn right now, using knetworkmanager in kubuntu
[03:53] <sparr__> yoyoma: however, i had to configure it in nm-applet (the gnome network manager)
[03:54] <sparr__> have you tried using nm-applet instead of knetworkmanager?
[03:55] <yoyoma> i did on 7.04
[03:55] <sparr__> it worked for me in 7.04, 7.10, and now in 8.04
[03:55] <yoyoma> sorry, i meant 7.10
[03:55] <yoyoma> gutsy gibbon
[03:56] <sparr__> it takes a lot of trial and error, because different pptp implementations ignore different parts of the spec, or use different names for things
[03:56] <sparr__> and i think i had to add some route entries manually
[03:56] <sparr__> so that local networking still worked alongside the vpn
[03:56] <sparr__> which is a bonus...
[03:56] <yoyoma> yeah
[03:56] <sparr__> windows xp can't do that, afaik
[03:56] <yoyoma> i'm just surprised something so useful still doesn't work....
[03:56] <sparr__> every other user of our work vpn has no internet access when using the vpn
[03:56] <sparr__> i do  :)
[03:56] <yoyoma> but it's hard to complain when it's free and i'm not a developer
[03:57] <yoyoma> there's an option in XP to specify whether to always use the remote gateway or not
[03:57] <crash__> sparr: they missed a checkbox
[03:57] <sparr__> ugh
[03:57] <crash__> happens all the time
[03:57] <sparr__> i thought i was using 8.04
[03:57] <crash__> internet + vpn is possible on XP
[03:57] <sparr__> apparently my dist-upgrade STILL isnt finished
[03:57] <|dthacker|> Hi, I just had to do a hard boot because open office froze up and now I freeze when the display manager starts up.
[03:57]  * sparr__ downloads another 175MB of packages, to finish installing 2GB of packages
[03:58] <yoyoma> hehe
[03:58] <sparr__> |dthacker|: ctrl alt f1
[03:58] <|dthacker|> rebooting
[03:58] <sparr__> for the record, do not reboot during a dist-upgrade
[03:58] <sparr__> how can i switch from mythbuntu to kubuntu startup/shutdown screens?
[03:59] <RurouniJones> sparr__: They do tell you that in the instructions :)
[03:59] <sparr__> RurouniJones: yes, but one might THINK the dist-upgrade is done when its not
[04:00] <yoyoma> bah.  well, seeya guys.  i've gotta boot to XP to get work done :(
[04:00] <sparr__> when dpkg exits complaining of a single error, it makes me happy.  unfortunately i didnt notice 2000 lines earlier in the output that that error blocked over half the dist-upgrade from completing
[04:00] <|dthacker|> wow, it's back.
[04:00] <sparr__> i would file a bug report on dpkg, but im lazy, and no one would fix it

[04:04] <genii> I wonder if his remark was sarcasm
[04:06]  * Jucato gives the benefit of the doubt unless proven otherwise
[04:06] <Fa> lol

[04:23] <kalinda> Hello - I'm wondering, since a friend of mine blew away his xorg.conf and couldn't get it back, is Bulletproof X actually included in Kubuntu Hardy? It wasn't on the "new features" page for the finaly release....
[04:27] <Odd-rationale> kalinda: wnat me to pastebin a xorg file with vesa as driver?
[04:27] <rickey> is there a kubuntu offtopic chat
[04:28] <Odd-rationale> rickey: yes. #kubuntu-offtopic
[04:29] <kalinda> Odd-rationale: No, that's ok, he already dealt with it. I just wanted to know if bulletproof X actually came with Kubuntu Hardy
[04:33] <brian_> so what exactly is this?
[04:38] <genii> I guess he really didn't care enough about it to hang around for an answer
[04:39] <DarkShinigami> !c++

[04:43] <mrmonkeyman> can anyone help me mount hard drives using the terminal, i get a message saying denied ntfs denied
[04:49] <Odd-rationale> mrmonkeyman: what have you tried?
[04:50] <dsmith_> y
[04:51] <mrmonkeyman> mount
[04:52] <Odd-rationale> mrmonkeyman: are you trying to mount an external or internal hdd?
[04:52] <mrmonkeyman> internal
[04:52] <Odd-rationale> mrmonkeyman: do you knoe the device name?
[04:52] <Odd-rationale> know
[04:52] <mrmonkeyman> sudo mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sdc1 /media/test
[04:52] <mrmonkeyman> that is what i tried
[04:53] <Odd-rationale> mrmonkeyman: does /media/test exist?
[04:53] <mrmonkeyman> and i got
[04:53] <mrmonkeyman> Failed to mount '/dev/sdc1': Operation not supported
[04:53] <mrmonkeyman> Mount is denied because NTFS is marked to be in use. Choose one action:
[04:53] <Odd-rationale> mrmonkeyman: ah, windows on it?
[04:53] <mrmonkeyman> no
[04:53] <mrmonkeyman> i made it
[04:54] <mrmonkeyman> with sudo mkdir
[04:54] <mrmonkeyman> but i am now noticing that i cannot write to it
[04:54] <mrmonkeyman> is that my problem
[04:54] <Odd-rationale> mrmonkeyman: no I meant windows on the ntfs partition.
[04:54] <Odd-rationale> ?
[04:54] <mrmonkeyman> ohhh, no windows just data but is ntfs from windows
[04:55] <mrmonkeyman> i want to mount it take data out then convert it to ext3
[04:55] <Odd-rationale> mrmonkeyman: ok. can you force mount it?
[04:55] <cahuez> yes, you can..
[04:55] <mrmonkeyman> will that in any way jeopordize my data?
[04:55] <Odd-rationale> mrmonkeyman: unlikely
[04:55] <mrmonkeyman> i have no backup of it and its 250 gb
[04:56] <Ahmuck> mrmonkeyman: you need a backup
[04:56] <FaceOfBoe> Can anyone tell me how to get the rotating cube going?
[04:56] <o0Chris0o> rotating cube?
[04:56] <cahuez> hey mrmonkey, just mount it and force if just for storage..
[04:56] <Ahmuck> pick up a new drive, sata 300g seagate, and format for fat32 and backup first
[04:56] <o0Chris0o> o.0
[04:56] <mrmonkeyman> awsome it worked
[04:56] <mrmonkeyman> ok
[04:56] <Odd-rationale> mrmonkeyman: cool
[04:57] <ubuntu> Anyone else noticed that 8.04 is more than a bit buggy?
[04:57] <mrmonkeyman> now i have another hard drive and that one is sata
[04:57] <Odd-rationale> ubuntu: nope
[04:57] <mrmonkeyman> do i need to do anything different
[04:57] <Odd-rationale> FaceOfBoe: do you have compiz?
[04:57] <FaceOfBoe> just finished getting it
[04:57] <Odd-rationale> mrmonkeyman: different formatting, you mean?
[04:58] <Odd-rationale> FaceOfBoe: did you install compizconfig-settings-manager?
[04:58] <mrmonkeyman> i mean do i do the same command or do anything different
[04:58] <Odd-rationale> mrmonkeyman: to mount?
[04:58] <mrmonkeyman> exactly
[04:58] <Odd-rationale> mrmonkeyman: should be the same. might want to unmount the other if you want to use the same mount point. or create a new one
[04:58] <FaceOfBoe> should I go with advanced or simple?
[04:59] <Odd-rationale> FaceOfBoe: custom
[04:59] <mrmonkeyman> ok, what is best way to unmount just sudo umount /media/test
[04:59] <Odd-rationale> FaceOfBoe: install compizconfig-settings-manager first, though
[04:59] <Odd-rationale> mrmonkeyman: yes
[04:59] <Ahmuck> yes, why is that.  did kde or kubuntu decide not to provied a unified interface for compiz
[04:59] <o0Chris0o> what is the rotating cube thing?
[05:00] <Odd-rationale> Ahmuck: nope.
[05:00] <Ahmuck> bleh
[05:00] <Odd-rationale> o0Chris0o: to have your virtual workspaces in like a cube.
[05:00] <mrmonkeyman> ok, now say i want to add this to fstab
[05:00] <o0Chris0o> I see
[05:00] <o0Chris0o> I had that in gentoo before
[05:00] <mrmonkeyman>  mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sdc1 /media/test -o force
[05:01] <o0Chris0o> how do I get that Odd-rationale? I don't have compiz
[05:01] <FaceOfBoe> still not working  :(
[05:01] <Odd-rationale> o0Chris0o: what version of ubuntu you got?
[05:01] <Odd-rationale> FaceOfBoe: did you install ccsm?
[05:01] <o0Chris0o> 8.04
[05:01] <FaceOfBoe> ya
[05:01] <ubuntu> heh, compiz messed with my media player, kept getting nasty looking snow instead of my movies.
[05:02] <waldschatten> There, now I have my name
[05:02] <Odd-rationale> o0Chris0o: what graphics card you got? is it relatively new?
[05:02] <ubunturos> This OpenWeek interest me a lot!
[05:02] <ubunturos> interests*
[05:02] <o0Chris0o> yes it is
[05:02] <Odd-rationale> FaceOfBoe: go to kmenu --> settings --> advance settings manager.
[05:03] <FaceOfBoe> kk
[05:03] <Odd-rationale> FaceOfBoe: go to kmenu --> system --> desktop effects and then click on install compiz
[05:04] <waldschatten> Well, in the one day I had 8.04 installed my desktop links stopped working, mono stopped working, wine apps started crashing.
[05:04] <FaceOfBoe> it's already installed
[05:04] <Odd-rationale> FaceOfBoe: have it open?
[05:04] <waldschatten> Maybe it was the dist upgrade, if I'd done it fresh from a CD it might have worked better?
[05:04] <FaceOfBoe> it's open
[05:05] <Odd-rationale> go to general options --> desktop size
[05:05] <Odd-rationale> FaceOfBoe: ^
[05:05] <o0Chris0o> is there kde extras you can install?
[05:05] <Odd-rationale> FaceOfBoe: and set the hor=4 ver=1 and #of desktop=1
[05:06] <Odd-rationale> o0Chris0o: are you running kde3 or 4?
[05:06] <o0Chris0o> kde3
[05:06] <o0Chris0o> went back, downgraded
[05:06] <FaceOfBoe> I'm not seeing general options anywhere
[05:06] <o0Chris0o> 4 is def not ready
[05:06] <o0Chris0o> lol
[05:06] <zPliskin> thats exactly what i wanted to know
[05:07] <Odd-rationale> FaceOfBoe: it should be at the very top. the fisrt option
[05:07] <zPliskin> i am on kde4... i dont understand a thing
[05:07] <o0Chris0o> its not as configureable as kde3
[05:07] <o0Chris0o> I am going to wait till 4.1
[05:07] <zPliskin> beside of the whole plasma thing, whats the difference ?
[05:07] <Odd-rationale> FaceOfBoe: found it?
[05:07] <FaceOfBoe> not there...dunno wotz wrong
[05:08] <o0Chris0o> the layout, looking more like windows
[05:08] <Makuseru> how can i convert a ".m4a" to a ".mp3"?
[05:08] <zPliskin> i think kde3 is more like windows
[05:09] <FaceOfBoe> kk got it
[05:09] <o0Chris0o> more or less, they both are like windows :)
[05:09] <o0Chris0o> and gnome is like mac
[05:09] <Odd-rationale> FaceOfBoe: set hor=4 ver=1 and #=1 ?
[05:09] <zPliskin> i am looking for a good distro for my working laptop
[05:10] <zPliskin> i was waiting for kubuntu 8.04 with kde4
[05:10] <FaceOfBoe> k
[05:10] <zPliskin> and now i am all lost with those widgets everywhere and stuff
[05:10] <Odd-rationale> FaceOfBoe: ok. now enable the Desktop Cube and rotate Cube plugins. (check the check bax
[05:10] <Odd-rationale> box
[05:11] <zPliskin> i had 7.10 with kde3 and it took me like 1000 years to make wireless working
[05:11] <zPliskin> and with this remix 4 one, it worked on first try.
[05:11] <Odd-rationale> You can play with the other settings later, but for now, also enable the Cube Cap plugin and the Wobbly Window plugin for kicks.
[05:12] <zPliskin> actually it roughly works well. but its full of little annoying stuff all around
[05:12] <o0Chris0o> yeah
[05:12] <zPliskin> like the default menu doesnt have the new software i saved
[05:12] <ubuntu> Is an intel Core 2 Duo 64 bit?
[05:12] <zPliskin> yes
[05:13] <FaceOfBoe> arrrgh...still not working
[05:13] <zPliskin> by the way, whats the difference between 64 and 32 bits with latest kubuntu ?
[05:13] <ubuntu> Argh, downloaded the x86 disc.
[05:13] <Odd-rationale> FaceOfBoe: did you select Custom on the desktop effects settings?
[05:14] <zPliskin> ubuntu > still works anyways
[05:14] <ubuntu> Yup, what's the difference anyways, aside from the extra ram you can install?
[05:14] <FaceOfBoe> Odd-rationale: Ya
[05:14] <dwidmann>  I can't seem to get ServiceMenus working in Konqueror (or Dolphin either for that matter), what's up with things?
[05:15] <zPliskin> no idea. thats why i ask -_-
[05:15] <zPliskin> by the way, is there a way to go from kde4 to kde3 without reinstalling everything ?
[05:15] <Odd-rationale> FaceOfBoe: if you adjusted the settings in ccsm, and chose advance ot simple by mistake it will overwrite your settings and you will have to do it again
[05:15] <dwidmann> zPliskin: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[05:15] <ubuntu> Heh, missed you asking the same thing pliskin
[05:16] <zPliskin> dwid, thats all ?
[05:16] <dwidmann> zPliskin: piece of cake huh?
[05:16] <Odd-rationale> FaceOfBoe: so make sure the settings are correct, then go to desktop effects and select Custom. then select apply
[05:16] <zPliskin> is kde4 still on my HD then ?
[05:17] <Odd-rationale> zPliskin: yes it would
[05:17] <Odd-rationale> zPliskin: you can have both. just choose your session in the kdm sessions menu
[05:17] <zPliskin> really?
[05:17] <Odd-rationale> yep
[05:18] <zPliskin> where is that kdm session menu?
[05:18] <macosxp> Please help! I'm trying Kubuntu with KDE 4 (installed as a file in windows using the wubi installer) but I can't seem to change settings like my tcp/ip or connect online or change desktop settings like graphics acceleration for desktop compiz
[05:18] <FaceOfBoe> Odd-rationale:  YaY  :)
[05:18] <Odd-rationale> FaceOfBoe: kool.
[05:19] <o0Chris0o> so how do I get rotating cube :) lol
[05:19] <o0Chris0o> whats the file name for it? I can search fo rit
[05:19] <Makuseru> does anyone know why amarok cant change the metadata on .m4a files?
[05:19] <FaceOfBoe> meanwhile now I gotz this Adept Notifier window that won't go away
[05:19] <Odd-rationale> o0Chris0o: did you already go to kmenu --> system --> desktop effects and select install ?
[05:19] <macosxp> can anyone help me?
[05:19] <Odd-rationale> FaceOfBoe: I get that too...
[05:20] <Odd-rationale> macosxp: try in #kubuntu-kde4
[05:20] <macosxp> okay thanks, bye
[05:20] <dthacker> macosxp: sorry, havent used wubi
[05:20] <o0Chris0o> Odd-rationale:  no let me do that, thought that was for FaceofBoe
[05:20] <zPliskin> yo whats wrong with ubuntu servers, i download at 13KBS :(
[05:21] <Odd-rationale> !slow | zPliskin
[05:21] <Deepthought> !kde4
[05:21] <Odd-rationale> Feisty???
[05:21] <FaceOfBoe> neXt Q: how do I get Kaffeine to play my DvD's?
[05:21] <Odd-rationale> FaceOfBoe: ok
[05:21] <Deepthought> test
[05:21] <dwidmann> !css FaceOfBoe
[05:21] <o0Chris0o> yah what is fiesty?
[05:21] <dwidmann> !css | FaceOfBoe
[05:21] <o0Chris0o> !fiesty
[05:21] <o0Chris0o> oops
[05:22] <o0Chris0o> !feisty
[05:22] <dwidmann> lol
[05:22] <maduser> wtf?
[05:22] <Odd-rationale> FaceOfBoe: do "sudo aptitude install libdvdread3 && sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread3/install-css.sh"
[05:22] <o0Chris0o> hmm
[05:22] <Makuseru> !libmp4
[05:22] <o0Chris0o> I'm lost
[05:22] <maduser> !hardy
[05:22] <maduser> ah they need to update the bot
[05:22] <Odd-rationale> ubot5 is out of date....
[05:22] <zPliskin> quick question, i use winamp on windows. whats the equivalent on linux ? amarok ?
[05:22] <o0Chris0o> update the bot!
[05:22] <o0Chris0o> :-p
[05:22] <dthacker> Makuseru: why don't you ask #amarok?
[05:22] <Odd-rationale> lol
[05:22] <ubunturos> heh
[05:22] <dwidmann> Odd-rationale: doesn't that install an older version of libdvdcss2 though? (ie: 1.2.5 instead of 1.2.9)
[05:23] <Makuseru> dthacker: because everyone is dead in there
[05:23] <dwidmann> Makuseru: I take no responsibility for their deaths
[05:23] <Makuseru> ha
[05:23] <Odd-rationale> dwidmann: dunno. I think that is the reccomended method. the wiki team was discussing whether or not they should advise adding 3rd party repos...
[05:24] <dthacker> Makuseru: they're not dead, they're just hibernating
[05:24] <zPliskin> winter was heavy
[05:24] <Makuseru> hibernating for life
[05:24] <dwidmann> Odd-rationale: well, last time I checked, that was the case
[05:24] <zPliskin> ya back at 150KBS !
[05:24] <dthacker> zPliskin: I like amarok for playing music, there are other players available too
[05:25] <Makuseru> does anyone know how to edit .m4a metadata?
[05:25] <Odd-rationale> dwidmann: which was? adding medibuntu?
[05:25] <o0Chris0o> Odd-rationale: oh yeah, the desktop effects are already installed
[05:25] <o0Chris0o> I mean compiz engine
[05:25] <dwidmann> Odd-rationale: no, the script from libdvdread installing an older version ... of course, I haven't tried it in a while
[05:25] <Odd-rationale> o0Chris0o: ok. now install compizconfig-settings-manager
[05:26] <o0Chris0o> k
[05:26] <flank> I love my kubuntu 8.04 but it freezes alot
[05:26] <FaceOfBoe> Odd-rationale: I got this "Install debhelper and fakeroot, then run this script again"
[05:27] <TeslaTony> I've been getting randomly logged out of my system. Anyone know what might be going on?
[05:27] <Deepthought>  I installed kde4 on my ubuntu/kubuntu rig (hardy), and now the whole graphic login is gone, there's p[roblems with x-auth and so changing sessions is impossible, only a mamaed gnome.   Worse, becuese of the x-auth I can' t start synaptic to fix broken packages or reinstall kde-desktop gnome-desktop.   anyone had that problem ?  KDE4 messing up the whole sys ?
[05:28] <keeper> Hi, I'm having some problems getting my keyboard to work, I can use it at the login screen, but as soon as I log in it stops responding
[05:28] <dwidmann> Odd-rationale: also, with any arch other than i386 you have to have all the tools installed for building packages - and it isn't even kind enough to install them for you
[05:28] <keeper> Also the on screen keyboard doesn't work
[05:28] <flank> everyone has problems
[05:28] <dwidmann> Odd-rationale: given that tidbit, I certainly can't recommend the script
[05:29] <o0Chris0o> Odd-rationale: installed
[05:29] <dwidmann> Odd-rationale: and here's where it has the version set for the script --- uversion=1.2.5 --- so it looks like I was right
[05:30] <o0Chris0o> wb Odd-rationale
[05:30] <Odd-rationale> sorry i got disconneted...
[05:30] <Odd-rationale> thanks!
[05:30] <o0Chris0o> :)
[05:30] <Odd-rationale> FaceOfBoe: does dvd plays for you?
[05:31] <dwidmann> Odd-rationale: did you get any of what I said in the last three minutes or so?
[05:31] <o0Chris0o> I got compizconfig-settings-manager installed
[05:31] <Odd-rationale> dwidmann: what was it?
[05:32] <Odd-rationale> o0Chris0o: ok then scroll up and read what i wrote to FaceOfBoe ;)
[05:32] <o0Chris0o> :)
[05:32] <dwidmann> dd-rationale: also, with any arch other than i386 you have to have all the tools installed for building packages - and it isn't even kind enough to install them for you ------- Odd-rationale: given that tidbit, I certainly can't recommend the script ------ Odd-rationale: and here's where it has the version set for the script --- uversion=1.2.5 --- so it looks like I was right
[05:33] <keeper> Could it be that my keyboard has something strange in xorg.conf ?
[05:33] <Odd-rationale> dwidmann: the scripts just downloads a .deb and installs it. correct?
[05:33] <dwidmann> Odd-rationale: only for i386, otherwise it has to download the source and build it
[05:34] <Odd-rationale> sorry, I thought you meant arch as in arch linux...
[05:34] <cube_> hey very new to kde what do i use as a synaptic equivelant?
[05:34] <dwidmann> Odd-rationale: just look at the script, it's pretty short and self explanitory
[05:34] <dwidmann> cube_: adept
[05:34] <keeper> I'm really not sure how it could be working at login screen, but not after logging in ( even numlock won't change its status)
[05:35] <Odd-rationale> dwidmann: i see. does medibuntu have other architectures then?
[05:35] <K4k-laptop> ok, so I just updated my kubuntu 8.04 install to kde4, but I seem to have lost my little widget to control my volume...how do I get it back?
[05:35] <dwidmann> Odd-rationale: yes, and it's also a more recent version of it
[05:36] <dwidmann> Odd-rationale: I think medibuntu does i386, amd64, and ppc
[05:37] <Odd-rationale> dwidmann: ok. then. seems like some should update the script to have it download from mdeibuntu and for your architecure.
[05:37] <dwidmann> Odd-rationale: I agree
[05:37] <keeper> I might try startx from recovery mode, any other ideas ?
[05:38] <Odd-rationale> dwidmann: if using i368 it seems ok. otherwise, i don't really like what it does....
[05:38] <dwidmann> Odd-rationale: I could do it easily enough, dunno how to get the changes in though
[05:38] <Odd-rationale> dwidmann: file a bug.
[05:38] <dwidmann> Odd-rationale: I suppose so, I'll just attach the modified script to the bug report and see how things go
[05:40] <K4k-laptop> anyone know what the volume applet for kde4 is? or if there is a way to use the one from kde3.5 on 4?
[05:40] <Odd-rationale> K4k-laptop: kmix?
[05:40] <K4k-laptop> yea, thats it, thank you
[05:40] <K4k-laptop> I couldn't remember what it was called
[05:41] <K4k-laptop> where do I put that to make it autostart when I login?
[05:41] <K4k-laptop> is there a special kde startup file?
[05:41] <Odd-rationale> !autostart | K4k-laptop
[05:42] <cube_> what do i type in terminal to list all my hardware like cpu,memory,hd
[05:42] <FaceOfBoe> <--Still fighting to get a DVD to play
[05:42] <K4k-laptop> cube_, it's lspci for anything but mem and proc I think
[05:42] <K4k-laptop> for mem it's "free"
[05:42] <Odd-rationale> FaceOfBoe: what happned?
[05:42] <K4k-laptop> for disk space it's "df -h"
[05:42] <FaceOfBoe> Odd-rationale: I got this "Install debhelper and fakeroot, then run this script again"
[05:42] <K4k-laptop> and proc, you have to cat the /proc file, but I don't remember where it is
[05:43] <Odd-rationale> FaceOfBoe: ok. forget that
[05:43] <Odd-rationale> FaceOfBoe: add the medibuntu repo and install libdvdcss2 https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu
[05:43] <FaceOfBoe> I wish I could remember how I did it last time  *argh*
[05:43] <cube_> there was this one command i could enter that would list out specificly like what it looks like here http://myspace.com/cubesis
[05:44] <cube_> y
[05:45] <o0Chris0o> alright, I installed ccsm
[05:46] <o0Chris0o> where do I go for the general options --> desktop size
[05:46] <o0Chris0o> Odd-rationale:
[05:46] <keeper> cube_: dmidecode -q | less
[05:46] <cube_> wow adept seems faster then synaptic
[05:46] <Daisuke_Laptop> why would you link to a myspace page?  do you hate us that much? :)
[05:46] <cube_> i just didn't feel like pastebin
[05:46] <Odd-rationale> o0Chris0o: in kmenu --> settings --> advance desktop settings

[06:18] <cube_> where is documentation for kubuntu
[06:19] <Odd-rationale> httpwiki.kubuntu.org

[06:21] <Odd-rationale> o0Chris0o: install pastebinit: sudo aptitude install pastebinit
[06:22] <o0Chris0o> easy way is always the best way lol..for me anyways
[06:22] <o0Chris0o> done
[06:24] <o0Chris0o> alright, installed it..its not listed to open it lol
[06:24] <Odd-rationale> sorry about that...

[06:28] <o0Chris0o> do I always use cat at the beginning? and | pastebinit at the end?
[06:29] <Odd-rationale> o0Chris0o: well | is a pipe. you can pipe any output to pastebinit
[06:30] <o0Chris0o> alright
[06:30] <Odd-rationale> try for example with out the | pastebinit
[06:30] <o0Chris0o> ahh I see
[06:30] <Odd-rationale> I don;t know why it is now working... your xorg file is loading the glx module...
[06:31] <o0Chris0o> I dunno I must of done something wrong :(
[06:31] <o0Chris0o> should I log off and log back on to see if it worked?
[06:31] <Odd-rationale> o0Chris0o: so you could essetiall do even somthing like apt-get install smoething | pastebinit and it will give the while apt output
[06:31] <o0Chris0o> ahh I see
[06:32] <Odd-rationale> o0Chris0o: try running glxgears in terminal
[06:33] <o0Chris0o> running

[06:37] <macosxp> Using KDE 4, why can't I double-click to open or right-click to copy files on the desktop... since when is the desktop a dull icon store?

[06:38] <Odd-rationale> then try again
[06:38] <macosxp> and where are the compiz options?
[06:38] <cube_> where do i kill a process

[06:46] <cube_> i am on 3.5 something for kde
[06:46] <cube_> and its crashing constant
[06:46] <Odd-rationale> cube_: you mean kooldock?
[06:46] <Odd-rationale> kishore: try asking in #kubuntu-kde4
[06:46] <o0Chris0o> Odd-rationale: thanks! appreciate your time
[06:46] <Odd-rationale> o0Chris0o: np
[06:46] <kishore> Odd-rationale:
[06:46] <l> hi, where can I find a German language group?
[06:47] <kishore> Odd-rationale: thanks ill go there
[06:47] <cube_> yes it cause signall 11 egv , but why kde4 i am on 3.5?
[06:47] <Odd-rationale> !de
[06:47] <l> thx
[06:47] <Odd-rationale> cube_: I was talking to kishore
[06:47] <cube_> is there a way for me to make crash handler not report that crash
[06:47] <cube_> cause it stays working but keeps reporting it
[06:49] <caveman26> whats a good benchmarking program to use for figuring out the megaflops of a processor in linux?
[06:49] <cube_> how would i add things to kooldock?
[06:49] <cube_> ok sorry nevermind
[06:51] <cube_> how would i make crash handler stop reporting the bug?
[07:06] <Agent_bob> hung program "[dvd-slideshow] waiting for mpeg2enc to finish..."   but mpeg2enc is not using any cpu time, so it's not doing anything.   thoughts ?
[07:08] <theveryend> HEYY
[07:08] <Agent_bob> 23335 pts/0    Sl+   31:21 mpeg2enc -v 0 -q 4 -4 2 -2 1 -a 2 -M 3 -f 8 -o /usr/slideshow   <<< is that syntax even correct ?
[07:09] <theveryend> ANYONE?
[07:09] <cube_> i am on kubuntu amd64 8.04 and kooldock keeps sending signal 11 sigsevg as a crash is there anything i can do?
[07:09] <Jucato> !caps | theveryend
[07:09] <Agent_bob> theveryend what happened? did we join an empty channel ?
[07:10] <Jucato> !anyone | theveryend
[07:10] <theveryend> sorry
[07:10] <theveryend> this is my first time here
[07:10] <cube_> mine 2
[07:11] <theveryend> ima a bit confused
[07:11] <cube_> is there anyway i can stop crash handler from report the crash as kooldock stays open and working
[07:12] <theveryend> oh yeah. i got that one too
[07:12] <theveryend> it always happens
[07:12] <cube_> u know how to fix it?
[07:13] <theveryend>  no i dont know
[07:13] <theveryend> anyone know?
[07:13] <Agent_bob> na'me
[07:14] <Odd-rationale> cube_: try killing kooldock and try alt+f2 and type "kooldock --nocrashhandler"
[07:14] <cube_> u know how i can setup that way for boot?
[07:15] <Odd-rationale> cube_: do you have it set for kde to automatically save session?
[07:15] <cube_> i don't think i do
[07:15] <theveryend> its complicated
[07:15] <cube_> lol it worked but then now it doesn't stay open when it crashes
[07:16] <theveryend> lol
[07:16] <Odd-rationale> cube_: go to system settings --> advance --> session manager. and select on login --> restore previous session
[07:16] <Odd-rationale> cube_: you cant have you cake and eat it too ;)
[07:16] <Jucato> !autostart

[07:21] <theveryend> yes. ktorrent
[07:22] <Jucato> zPliskin: unless you're on 64bit, just install sun-java6-plugin
[07:22] <zPliskin> i just did the damn procedure and it doesn't work. firefox doesnt detect the plugin
[07:22] <zPliskin> how i do that ?
[07:22] <Agent_bob> mpeg2enc BUG!
[07:22] <theveryend> my firefox always close unexpectedly
[07:22] <Jucato> zPliskin: what procedure did you do?
[07:23] <zPliskin> the procedure on the sun site : http://java.com/en/download/help/5000010500.xml#selfextracting
[07:27] <Agent_bob> hmm konsole   shift+arrow to switch tabs   but what is the gnome-terminal key ?
[07:30] <theveryend> oh
[07:30] <Jucato> Ctrl+Page Up/Down
[07:31] <Jucato> Agent_bob: ^^^^
[07:32] <Agent_bob> ah ty
[07:32] <Agent_bob> and it doesn't cycle   ;/
[07:33] <Jucato> (it's GNOME.. what did you expect? :P)
[07:33] <Jucato> j/k
[07:33] <Agent_bob> :)
[07:33] <Agent_bob> hung program "[dvd-slideshow] waiting for mpeg2enc to finish..."   but mpeg2enc is not using any cpu time, so it's not doing anything.   thoughts ?
[07:34] <Agent_bob> i know i can kill mpeg2enc    but the program will error out.   is there a better way to build a slideshow-dvd ?
[07:35]  * Agent_bob wants to smack mpeg2enc's fingures with a hammer so it will stop "hanging" on...
[07:36] <Agent_bob> http://ubuntu.pastebin.us/?show=d27d5be84
[07:37] <Agent_bob> i wouldn't wait more than two or three hours for that thing to do something.....
[07:39] <nicolas> hie everyone
[07:39] <Agent_bob> hmmm could not start GNOME Web Browser  \n\n Startup failed because of the following error: \n unable to determine the address of the message bus.
[07:39] <theveryend> argh
[07:40] <nicolas> i'm having trouble with lirc in hardy, am i alone?
[07:40] <theveryend> its driving me crazy
[07:41] <Agent_bob> i think i have determined that i like posting error messages, better than trying to solve other peoples issues.        or maybe not.
[07:43] <theveryend> ouch
[07:43] <Lynoure> Agent_bob: :)
[07:44] <nicolas> lirc daemon won't load, only the userspace works :s
[07:45] <Agent_bob> Lynoure here's another one.   :)     i just clicked the switch window managers.   (from blackbox to metacity)  heh all it acomplished is, now i have no menus bars buttons * !
[07:46] <Lynoure> Agent_bob: Gnome web browser == epiphany?
[07:46] <Agent_bob> yeah i think.
[07:46] <Lynoure> Agent_bob: but you are in kde, still? (just trying to figure out the situation)
[07:46] <Agent_bob> oh but i just found that i can now   alt+tab   and get a task manager/switcher
[07:47] <Agent_bob> Lynoure i haven't been in kde per'se in years.
[07:47] <Agent_bob> nor gnome...
[07:47] <Lynoure> Agent_bob: ok, then I don't even try to help you.
[07:47] <Agent_bob> :)
[07:47] <Lynoure> Agent_bob: too much work trying to guess what you have and what you don't :)
[07:48] <Agent_bob> yeah.   i fully understand that.        i have all the gnome and kde installed   but almost nothing running.
[07:48] <Agent_bob> Lynoure but:  if you could spare a moment.
[07:49] <Agent_bob> have you ever built any dvd slideshows ?
[07:50] <Lynoure> Agent_bob: Actually, I don't even know what they would be as dvd tends to be moving video and slides unmoving
[07:50] <Agent_bob> hung program "[dvd-slideshow] waiting for mpeg2enc to finish..."   but mpeg2enc is not using any cpu time, so it's not doing anything.   thoughts ?
[07:51] <Agent_bob> sorry.   i mean mpeg2enc seems to be all that is blocking my progress at this time.
[07:51] <Lynoure> Agent_bob: How did you determine it is not doing anything? strace?
[07:51]  * Lynoure loves strace
[07:51] <Agent_bob> top
[07:52] <Agent_bob> it doesn't even show up on "top"   and sp says it's been sleeping for 30 minutes
[07:52] <Agent_bob> s/sp/ps/
[07:52] <Lynoure> Agent_bob: try   strace -f -p pid-of-your process   for fun anyway
[07:53] <Lynoure> Agent_bob: it's probably waiting for something that is not there
[07:53] <Agent_bob> strace -f -p `pidof mpeg2enc`  ?
[07:53] <Lynoure> yes
[07:53] <Agent_bob> Process 23363 attached with 5 threads - interrupt to quit
[07:53] <Agent_bob>  <unfinished ...>
[07:53] <Agent_bob>  <unfinished ...>
[07:54] <Lynoure> Agent_bob: hmm, not very informative.
[07:54] <Agent_bob> that's all it said.
[07:54]  * Agent_bob shrugs
[07:55] <Lynoure> If that always happens, I'd restart and strace it into a file from earlier on
[07:55] <Lynoure> or go digging in /proc (but that's much less fun)
[07:56]  * Agent_bob wishes there was a slightly more polished app    even a cli app.
[07:56] <Agent_bob> for building dvd's
[07:57] <Agent_bob> if i do that i need to test run it on a small file.  not this 2 hour project.
[07:58] <Lynoure> Agent_bob: pity if you'll lose 2h of work :/
[07:58] <Agent_bob> i guess i just as well kill the thing.    loose all that data...
[07:58] <Agent_bob> yeah
[07:59] <Agent_bob> well  easy go.
[07:59] <Agent_bob> reguardless how it came.
[07:59] <Lynoure> Agent_bob: Manslide might be a "slightly more polished app", never tried it
[08:00] <Agent_bob> now that i have metacity running i think i'll start kicker so i'll have a menu.
[08:00] <Agent_bob> i'll look at it.
[08:04] <Agent_bob> hmmm maybe if i just nuke xorg it will leave the "completely finished" but not released dvd (the progress is at 100% and the only message is the "waiting for mpeg2enc to finish") and when i start the app it will see it's temp file and finish it ???
[08:05] <Agent_bob> oh well,  wish me good noogies!
[08:09] <oupa> Hi, I am having a problem sharing a printer attached to a Kubuntu system with an Ubuntu system. both 8.04. It used to 'just work' now it "just doesn't". Can anybody help me configure it? Please
[08:10] <cicero123> hello.iam trying to use the kde4 ubgrade disk. the insturtions read to run "kdesu "/cdrom/cdromupgrade" in the command line, but i get the error, "command not found.
[08:12] <Lynoure> cicero123: is your cd mounted?
[08:13] <cicero123> Lynoure:  yes.
[08:14] <vlt> Hello. Which of the install CDs/DVDs allows shrinking an existing NTFS partition before installing Kubuntu?
[08:15] <cicero123> Lynoure:  it is mounted as /media/cdrom0
[08:15] <Lynoure> cicero123: try   kdesu "sh /cdrom/cdromupgrade"
[08:16] <cicero123> Lynoure:  k
[08:16] <Lynoure> cicero123: well, that explain it :)  /media/cdrom0  instead of plain /cdrom  for you then
[08:17] <cicero123> Lynoure:  sorry. i know enough to be dangerous but not enough to make money. :(
[08:17] <monkeybritches> vlt: There's an option to resize partitions during installation

[08:18] <vlt> monkeybritches: On desktop AND alternate CD? I remember it coming only with one of the install CDs in earlier versions ...
[08:19] <cicero123> Lynoure: i am still getting command not found.
[08:19] <monkeybritches> I don't know about alternate, but I have the other one and it's on it.
[08:20] <Lynoure> cicero123: what does ls -la  /media/cdrom0/cdromupgrade  show?  (I haven't upgraded that way ever myself, I always switch in the late alpha stage :) )
[08:20] <Lynoure> (or then upgrade over network later on)
[08:21] <Lynoure> cicero123: is is the alternate cd you are using?
[08:21] <MasterStone> hi everyone
[08:22] <cicero123> Lynoure: no such file or directory. :( but in properties is gives the mount as /media/cdrom0
[08:22] <MasterStone> i have a problem with my graphic installation after an upgrade to hardy
[08:22] <cicero123> i dont know. there are two exec files in it. a umenu.exe, and a wubi.exe
[08:23] <Lynoure> cicero123: does not sound like the right cd, but I'm yet to check
[08:24] <stdin> that would be the desktop cd
[08:24] <stdin> (there are no .exe's on the alternate cd)
[08:24] <Agent_bob> no such noogie !     oh swell
[08:25] <cicero123> Lynoure: if it is the wrong cd it would explain a lot. :/
[08:25] <Lynoure> cicero123: checked, it's the wrong cd
[08:25] <Agent_bob> vidio dvd's are just data dvd's with some specially named/formated files on them aren't they?
[08:25] <cicero123> Lynoure: which one do i need?
[08:25] <cicero123> kde on 386.
[08:25] <Lynoure> cicero123: the one called Alternate
[08:25] <Agent_bob> .vob's and such
[08:26] <cicero123> Lynoure:  k. thank you. i will dl it now.
[08:26] <Lynoure> cicero123: good luck.
[08:27] <cicero123> Lynoure:  thanx. :)
[08:27] <Agent_bob> cicero123 how much ram ?
[08:28] <Agent_bob> or am i misreading that "<cicero123> kde on 386"
[08:28] <walter_eco> hi - - I'm having a screen size problem
[08:28] <Agent_bob> me too.  mines too small
[08:28] <walter_eco> can't seem to go above 600 x 800
[08:28] <ubuntu_> let me take a stab and say you have nvidia drivers
[08:29] <walter_eco> also is there a way to see what version of kubuntu I'm running
[08:29] <ubuntu_> lsb_release -a
[08:29] <Agent_bob> lsb_release -r
[08:29] <stdin> Agent_bob: yeah, .VOBs are mpeg 2 sequences, but it's the .IFO and .BUP files that tell the DVD player the information about it, like titles, chapters, audio channels etc
[08:30] <walter_eco> matrox
[08:30] <ubuntu_> let me take a stab and say you have nvidia drivers?
[08:30] <walter_eco> could be
[08:30] <Agent_bob> stdin umm yes.  that's what i'm saying,  it's other wise just a data dvd,  correct ?
[08:30] <walter_eco> is there a way to see what drivers I have
[08:30] <walter_eco> (please)
[08:31] <ubuntu_> what i mean is what card do you have
[08:31] <stdin> Agent_bob: yep, it's just files on a disk
[08:31] <Agent_bob> stdin not at all like the old audio cd format
[08:31] <Agent_bob> right...   k
[08:31] <walter_eco> I have a matrox g450/500 video card
[08:31] <walter_eco> it says
[08:31] <stdin> Agent_bob: yeah, single session, not like VCDS/AudioCDs
[08:31] <walter_eco> which I believe
[08:32] <o0Chris0o> I have a question for kde3 desktop effects....whats the effect that when you hoover over a window the title bar shows up then when you move your mouse to another window..it disappears? trying to get rid of that, I don't care for it :(
[08:32]  * Agent_bob went to test
[08:32] <walter_eco> it was working just fine at 1000x1200 then I switched to 600x800 now it wont let me switchback
[08:33] <MasterStone> hi everyone. i have a problem with my screen resolution too.
[08:33] <MasterStone> after the boot, the kde-login screen displays huge fonts and only a tiny part of the whole screen
[08:33] <ubuntu_> kdesu displayconfig and under hardware choose the right drivers and more importantly choose corect device and the aproppriate resolution, it will write new values in xorg and restart x
[08:34] <MasterStone> the problem is that i cannot use any programs under kde because i cannot read a single thing
[08:36] <ubuntu_> at the login screen, the xorg will choose the highest resolution and use and then change to what you selected for kde,
[08:36] <walter_eco> its set to the right card supposedly
[08:36] <ubuntu_> compared to ubuntu channel this place is calm, am testing out kubuntu
[08:36] <walter_eco> it was working until i changed the setting
[08:37] <ubuntu_> chances are it will be, but is the monitor section correct walter_eco
[08:37] <noaXess> what to use on kubuntu to creating cd labesl.. also round cd labes to put on the cd itself?
[08:38] <MasterStone> after i have logged in, i cannot read a single thing, the mousepointer is about 3 cm large. the font is huge and only parts of the screen are visible at all
[08:39] <MasterStone> i have tried to change the xorg-parameters already with dpkg-reconfigure xorg-sxerver but that stops after setting keyboard and mouse setup
[08:40] <MasterStone> how can i say kde (or the sxerver) to start in a different screen resolution?
[08:40] <o0Chris0o> MasterStone: was there a pop-up for hardware drivers manager to enable the video card?
[08:40] <MasterStone> o0Chris0o: during dpkg-reconfigure? no
[08:42] <o0Chris0o> oic, I dunno. Thats what I did when I first installed kubuntu 8.04
[08:42] <o0Chris0o> I thought maybe it was similar to your problem
[08:42] <MasterStone> well, i did not install it from scratch but upgraded from 7.10
[08:43] <o0Chris0o> I see
[08:43] <o0Chris0o> is there like a computer chip icon by your clock on the right that you can see?
[08:44] <jaffarkelshac> did you fix the resolution problem (i switched to ubuntu)
[08:45] <MasterStone> the screenresolution is so bad that i can see the clock only partly, i can see the icon for the enter-button and the little menu-like icon a little underneath
[08:46] <o0Chris0o> hmm
[08:46] <jaffarkelshac> MasterStone, what card do you have
[08:47] <MasterStone> jaffarkelshac: it is a ati x300 i believe
[08:47] <jaffarkelshac> i have nvidia, and can only really help with that, but you need to edit your xorg.conf
[08:48] <MasterStone> i have tried to change that but with dpkg-reconfigure it doesnt work because i only get to change the keyboard and mouse settings
[08:49] <MasterStone> and with manually editing xorg.conf i can change the resolution but then my monitor says it cannot display the frequenzy although it should be with the given range
[08:50] <jaffarkelshac> did you try envy-ng
[08:50] <jaffarkelshac> i have been searching online for x300 xorg

[08:52] <o0Chris0o> I have a question for kde3 desktop effects....whats the effect that when you hoover over a window the title bar shows up then when you move your mouse to another window..it disappears? trying to get rid of that, I don't care for it :(
[08:53] <jaffarkelshac> when you have minized it?
[08:54] <jaffarkelshac> is the when the window is minimized? o0Chris0o
[08:54] <o0Chris0o> no when it is maximized
[08:54] <o0Chris0o> whethe title bar is there when it is active
[08:54] <o0Chris0o> when I move the mouse away from it...itit goes away
[08:54] <jaffarkelshac> i thought it was preview. but then i dont use kde
[08:55] <o0Chris0o> only happends when I enable the effects, but trying to figure out which effect it is exactly to disable it lol
[08:56] <jaffarkelshac> i am sure it is window preview
[08:56] <o0Chris0o> alright lets see
[08:57] <o0Chris0o> thats not under ccsm
[08:58] <o0Chris0o> for an effect
[08:58] <jaffarkelshac> no idea then, you have to probably do it the hard way
[08:58] <jaffarkelshac> 1 by 1
[08:58] <o0Chris0o> dunno
[08:58] <o0Chris0o> yeah
[08:58] <o0Chris0o> figures
[08:58] <o0Chris0o> lol
[08:59] <jaffarkelshac> not many ppl use kubuntu, the channel is very quiet. i tried it out today
[09:00] <o0Chris0o> there is quite a bit of ppl that use it
[09:00] <o0Chris0o> its 4am est here
[09:01] <o0Chris0o> its usally more populated during the day
[09:01] <jaffarkelshac> its 9 am where i am

[09:06] <Tom_Smith_orygin> Hi, I have a question - Where can I find a Kubuntu 8.04 DVD release with KDE4 (official there are only CDs)
[09:06] <Jucato> anyway, just because the channel has been quiet when you were around doesn't mean that there are not many people using Kubuntu nor does it mean that it is always quiet
[09:07] <Jucato> Tom_Smith_orygin: none. DVD only has KDE 3 by default, but KDE 4 packages installable I think
[09:07]  * Jucato double checks
[09:08] <Tom_Smith_orygin> ok, is KDE4 friendly install from package (some like 'apt-get install kde4') ?
[09:09] <Jucato> Tom_Smith_orygin: yeah. sudo apt-get install kubuntu-kde4-desktop
[09:09] <Jucato> #kubuntu-kde4 for more information
[09:09] <Tom_Smith_orygin> thanks man
[09:09] <Tom_Smith_orygin> see you
[09:26] <ken_fallon> So is it usually this quiet here ?
[09:27] <Jucato> at this time of day, sometimes
[09:27] <Jucato> day or night
[09:28] <SlimeyPete> it can get quite busy
[09:29] <SlimeyPete> but never so much as #ubuntu
[09:29] <Jucato> (thank goodness!)
[09:29] <ken_fallon> So was is bussier after the release ?
[09:30] <Jucato> definitely
[09:33] <Agent_bob> only when i'm not here.
[09:34] <Jucato> (*especially* when you are here :P)

[09:41] <kwiji> hi!
[09:42] <kwiji> I just tried to install kubuntu 8.04, but it doesnt show me a correct partition table
[09:42] <kwiji> theres only one hd shown, although i have 2 partitions, 2 ntfs and some free space for kubuntu
[09:43] <ken_fallon> Have you two hard disks then ?
[09:43] <kwiji> no, 1 sata
[09:43] <Agent_bob> then why shouldn't it "only one hd shown" ?
[09:44] <ken_fallon> Do you see the 2 partitions ?
[09:44] <Agent_bob> if you only have one hd then one hd is how many it should show
[09:44] <kwiji> ähm, i mean it doesnt show the 2 partitions
[09:44] <ken_fallon> ok what does it show ?
[09:45] <kwiji> the only possibility i have is to create a new partition table and delete everything
[09:45] <kwiji> it only shows my hd and no partitions, although i have 2 ntfs partitions
[09:45] <ken_fallon> Do the sizes match the hard disk ?
[09:46] <kwiji> hm, as far as i remember it just didn't show the size
[09:46] <Agent_bob> you still in the live cd ?
[09:47] <kwiji> no
[09:47] <kwiji> winxp
[09:47] <Agent_bob> k
[09:47] <ken_fallon> Have you encryption on the NTFS partations ?
[09:48] <kwiji> no
[09:48] <amerigo> ! games
[09:48] <kwiji> i just did the standard partition stuff with the winxp installation
[09:49] <ken_fallon> so you have a c and d drive
[09:49] <kwiji> c and e are my partitions
[09:50] <Agent_bob> how you skipped d ?
[09:50] <Agent_bob> never mind.
[09:51] <ken_fallon> kwiji: I'm looking up something. Please hold . . .
[09:51] <kwiji> thx
[09:51] <Agent_bob> well leave her dress alone and help the poor guy

[09:52] <o0Chris0o> how do I disable the effects that when I hover over a window it brings the title bar (with the minimize, maximize and exit buttons) up, but when I move the mouse away to a another window,the title  goes away and the active windows title bar shows up
[09:52] <o0Chris0o> hope that makes sense
[09:53] <ken_fallon> kwiji: Can you open up "Computer Management" and go to "Disk Management"
[09:53] <kwiji> with the live cd in or in winxp?
[09:53] <ken_fallon> xp
[09:54] <xst> After upgrading from gutsy to hardy I use the "hardware manager" to install the "ATI accelerated graphics driver" but it writes "Not in use" next to it? I have rebooted and everything. What to do?erything
[09:55] <ken_fallon> kwiji: it's under start - control panel - administration tools
[09:55] <kwiji> yes, i think i got it
[09:55] <kwiji> my winxp is german, so i dont know how they translated it ;)
[09:56] <ken_fallon> ok right click on disk 0 (if that's what it is) and select properties - hardware
[09:56] <Agent_bob> ##windows and #kubuntu-de both exist.
[09:57] <ken_fallon> You speak German ?
[09:57] <kwiji> i'am german ;)
[09:57] <Agent_bob> xst i can't answer that. but i did read it.
[09:58] <kwiji>  i went on properties
[09:59] <ken_fallon> on the "C:" volume right click and select properties then - harware
[09:59] <tzd> the time in akregator isn't correct (shows +1-2 hours for some feeds), anyone knows what's wrong please?
[09:59] <ken_fallon> It should list the disk type
[10:01] <kwiji> yes
[10:01] <ken_fallon> ok can you tell me the model please
[10:02] <kwiji> WDC WD3200AAKS-00VYA0

[10:20] <tuanpham> it has so many problems
[10:20] <tuanpham> webcam not work
[10:21] <tuanpham> user icon does not show ..
[10:21] <Agent_bob> if you have the package cache   "/var/cache/apt/archives/kopete*.deb" you can install it from there.  if not you can download the specific version and install it
[10:21] <rohan> a program i install myself - netbeans - has added a new entry to my kde menu. how can i know where is the .desktop file which has added that entry?
[10:21] <tuanpham> ok let i check
[10:21] <rohan> the entry is "Netbeans" in Menu -> Development

[10:24] <rohan> Agent_bob: thanks, i found it in /usr
[10:24] <Agent_bob> usr/share/something/ probably
[10:24] <kwiji> but anyway, i could access my 2 ntfs partitions with the live cd
[10:25] <tuanpham> it have no kopete here Agent_bob
[10:25] <tuanpham> i will try install it again
[10:25] <jo4___> Sorry, but no response in Xubuntu channel or Ubuntu for that matter. My question is if Xubuntu uses gdm or xfwm ? :P
[10:25] <rohan> jo4___: gdm
[10:25] <Agent_bob> !packages | tuanpham check the webpage
[10:25] <jo4___> rohan, ok, ty
[10:27] <tuanpham> thank
[10:27] <Agent_bob> tuanpham reinstalling the same bugged version is not likely to help.   file a bug report.   go to the web page packages.ubuntu.com and find a version that works.  download it and install it.
[10:27] <Jucato> gdm and xfwm are 2 different things :)
[10:28] <Agent_bob> jo4 left.  but xubuntu defaults to xdm + xfwm   iirc
[10:29] <Jucato> I though gdm + xfwm... oh well
[10:30] <Agent_bob> it may be.   i know i had xdm for a while and i thought it was installed by the xubuntu-desktop package...
[10:30] <Jucato> let's see :)
[10:30] <Agent_bob> but thinking something doesn't force it to be so.
[10:32] <Agent_bob> doesn't seem to depend on xdm   or else i still have it installed,  checking that too
[10:32] <Jucato> :)
[10:32] <Agent_bob> nope not installed.
[10:34] <tuanpham> did anyone use virtual box ose ?
[10:34] <rohan> https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apt/+bug/222567 ---> can someone please confirm this bug?

[10:36]  * Agent_bob gives the three legged chair a push.

[10:37] <tuanpham> sorry
[10:39] <snikker> gtk-qt-engine don't work as root. can you help me?
[10:40] <Agent_bob> snikker you probably wont get help with that in here,  they are anti-root nazis
[10:41] <krypto__> hi! someone can tell me where I can find global font settings?
[10:41] <Jucato> snikker: what do you mean by "deosn't work as root"?
[10:41] <krypto__> so i.e. when I start adept which runs with root rights has the same fonts as in my user account?
[10:41] <stdin> probably that root's kde settings don't say to use qt-curve at the GTK style
[10:42] <taghastien41> HDD locked in the bios is there any solution
[10:42] <stdin> you could just start systemsettings with kdesu and set the style there
[10:42] <snikker> Jucato: for example if i run synaptic (or another gtk app) with sudo or kdesu i don't have kde style. it work as normal user
[10:43] <Agent_bob> krypto__ you could do kdesudo kcontrol    and set the fonts as root
[10:43] <Jucato> snikker: see what stdin said
[10:44] <snikker> Jucato: i've run kcontrol as root, but don't work
[10:44] <Agent_bob> never ever startx as root and setup the kde settings like normal users...   ^
[10:44] <Tm_T> Agent_bob: tsup tsup, you use word "nazi" way too lightly, son
[10:44] <krypto__> thx, I could have think of that by myself.... ;)
[10:45] <Agent_bob> Tm_T ?      look at some of the responces to questions about "root" in the logs and then say that  ;/
[10:45] <snikker> Jucato: same thing with systemsettings...
[10:46] <Jucato> weird
[10:46] <snikker> Jucato: yes... in gutsy it worked fine...
[10:47] <tuanpham> now i get older version Agent_bob
[10:47] <tuanpham> thank
[10:47] <Tm_T> Agent_bob: you still fail, son ;)
[10:47] <Agent_bob> tuanpham welcome.
[10:47] <tuanpham> i used kopete 0.2.7 againt
[10:47] <tuanpham> no
[10:47] <tuanpham> i works
[10:47] <Tm_T> 0.12.7 ?
[10:49] <tuanpham> yep
[10:49] <tuanpham> it use for kde 3
[10:49] <tuanpham> not for kde 4
[10:49] <Tm_T> yes
[10:49] <tuanpham> but it runs ok
[10:49] <Tm_T> it does indeed, though, it might lack some features compared to newer
[10:55] <Agent_bob> yes some of the "features" was what he was trying to "lack"
[11:02] <Agent_bob> 254/256 getting close to done.
[11:15] <kaminix> Meh... something's up with KTorrent. Recently it haven't resumed my downloads when it's supposed to but rewrite them with nothingness, effectively removing them from my harddrive.... paaartyyy
[11:15] <kaminix> 3.5 GB of re-downloading
[11:16] <kaminix> Confirmed, all deleted.
[11:18] <smeril> how can i enter what part i want to download in K torrent after i have done it the first time?
[11:18] <kaminix> Ah, oh... nevermind. This was my mistake. Specified wrong folder. :p
[11:18] <kaminix> smeril: Load the info widget plugin.
[11:19] <kaminix> Then choose 'Files'
[11:20] <smeril> I solved the problem
[11:20] <smeril> thanks anyway
[11:21] <TeslaTony> How do I log an account off from the command line?
[11:22] <emilsedgh> TeslaTony: what kind of account?
[11:23] <ere4si> TeslaTony: log a user off?
[11:26] <TeslaTony> ere4si: Yeah. I have my guest account logged in through a command line only session and I want it logged off
[11:27] <ere4si> TeslaTony: I've never had to do that - anyone know how?
[11:28] <TeslaTony> erm...nevermind...seems the command is "logout"

[11:46] <Gulars> I'm doing a upgrade on my box, and it's giving me "Errors were encountered while processing: virtualbox-ose QMutex::lock: Deadlock detected in thread -1210718016" what should I do?
[11:48] <Gulars> I'm using the gui dist-upgrade tool... anyone have any help?
[11:48] <SlimeyPete> probably best to remove virtualbox and then try the upgrade again
[11:48] <SlimeyPete> hopefully it hasn't tied itself in a knot
[11:48] <Gulars> hmmm
[11:49] <Gulars> the installer have halted at 99%, should I just kill it?
[11:49] <benishor> Hello there. During a recent upgrade, it seems my partition got locked to read only
[11:49] <benishor> is there anything I can do to fix it ?
[11:49] <Gulars> btw: the terminal-output-thingie should be readonly, no?
[11:50] <Gulars> benishor, first I guess you'll have to remount the partition rw from the command line?
[11:50] <Gulars> and then edit /etc/fstab?
[11:52] <benishor> Gulars : and how would I remount the partition ?
[11:53] <DexterF> hi
[11:54] <DexterF> got a bunch of perl process here that have to to with proFTPd, but it isn't installed: http://pastebin.ca/1001638
[11:54] <Gulars> mount -n -o remount,rw /
[11:54] <DexterF> what's this? where does it come from? why does it take up 95% cpu? never seen it before
[11:55] <benishor> thank you Gulars !
[11:55] <Gulars> np
[12:24] <marcher> ubuntu or kubuntu?
[12:25] <emilsedgh> marcher: sorry?
[12:26] <marcher> i just installed kubuntu..... i had ubuntu installed ...it crashed (im new to linux) and kubuntu seems weird
[12:26] <SlimeyPete> *shrug* use it for a while, and then decide which you like best.
[12:27] <SlimeyPete> there's not much difference between the two really - it's all down to personal taste.
[12:27] <marcher> fair enough!!    i like the layout
