[04:10] <Schuenemann> is it possible to use Kubuntu to allow only some machines of my network to access internet?
[04:11] <chupa-chups> hi all
[04:11] <Schuenemann> !br
[04:11] <ubotu> Por favor use #ubuntu-br  ou #ubuntu-pt  para ajuda em portugus. Obrigada.
[04:12] <bele> !sudo
[04:12] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[04:12] <Schuenemann> !iptables
[04:12] <ubotu> Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[04:12] <chupa-chups> i just ask about if i have 2 operating system , does it harm the disk , short te disk lifetime ???????????????
[04:14] <chupa-chups> helloooooooooooooooo
[04:15] <chupa-chups> any body hear me ?????????????
[04:15] <TheGateKeeper> chupa-chups, no it doesn't
[04:15] <chupa-chups> r u sure
[04:15] <TheGateKeeper> why would it?
[04:15] <chupa-chups> 2 file systems on the same disk
[04:15] <Schuenemann> it's just a bunch of files, anyway
[04:15] <TheGateKeeper> no makes no difference
[04:16] <chupa-chups> somebody told me that thank u
[04:16] <chupa-chups>  thank u
[04:16] <TheGateKeeper> chupa-chups, I run kubuntu / gentoo dual boot on this disk, which has 4 partitions
[04:17] <chupa-chups> in the past i had win 98 and 2000
[04:17] <chupa-chups> it doesnt harm the disk
[04:17] <TheGateKeeper> no it doesn't
[04:17] <chupa-chups> but iam taliking about win xp and kubuntu
[04:18] <TheGateKeeper> windows of any variety has security problems but that is another story lol
[04:18] <chupa-chups> that is why iam asking
[04:19] <TheGateKeeper> if you are asking is windows basically insecure the answer is yes
[04:20] <vinboy> TheGateKeeper: why do u use both gentoo/kubuntu?
[04:21] <TheGateKeeper> vinboy, well I originally installed kubuntu, then decided to try gentoo, eventually kubuntu will be replaced by sabayon (which is based on gentoo), basically historical
[04:21] <chupa-chups> i know that win has many problims , but the main problem for me is ( win xp + kubuntu does it harm the disk )
[04:22] <TheGateKeeper> chupa-chups, I think we have answerd that question
[04:22] <TheGateKeeper> answered*
[04:22] <chupa-chups> thanx 4 answer but u r talking in another issue and i explain wt i mean
[04:23] <rganti> I see the problem that my kubuntu says unable to connect to local host
[04:23] <chupa-chups> i have another q
[04:23] <rganti> can any answer for this question?
[04:23] <chupa-chups> why do i have to install win first then kubuntu
[04:23] <Schuenemann> because win will erase the boot
[04:23] <chupa-chups> ok u r welcome
[04:24] <chupa-chups> ok
[04:24] <chupa-chups> i f i want to reinstall win , then i have to reinstll kubuntu too ??
[04:24] <TheGateKeeper> chupa-chups, because windows thinks that it is the ONLY OS in the world, you can do it the other way round, it's just a bit more tricky
[04:25] <vinboy> TheGateKeeper: is sabayon any good?
[04:25] <flaccid> is there a system service manager for kubuntu
[04:25] <chupa-chups> ok
[04:25] <rganti> Hello this is rganti can any one look at me?
[04:25] <TheGateKeeper> vinboy, the livecd looks very cool, & sabayon is basically gentoo
[04:25] <rganti> I new to this Konversation and Ubuntu
[04:26] <chupa-chups> welcome rganti
[04:26] <TheGateKeeper> vinboy, gentoo, rocks, but NOT for first timers
[04:26] <vinboy> ic
[04:26] <rganti> thanks chupa-chups
[04:26] <TheGateKeeper> vinboy, how long you be using linux?
[04:26] <rganti> for responding to me
[04:26] <rganti> What is happening is after I login to Kubuntu Linux on my PC
[04:27] <chupa-chups> ok , wt destros of linux is better than kubuntu
[04:27] <rganti> when I tried to connect to Kontact Perosonal Information Manager
[04:27] <chupa-chups> sorry
[04:27] <TheGateKeeper> rganti, well one would hope that you get a desktop lol
[04:27] <vinboy> TheGateKeeper: 1 year
[04:27] <vinboy> TheGateKeeper: i use gentoo fulltime
[04:28] <rganti> Then I am getting a message "Could not connect to local host"
[04:28] <chupa-chups> wt destros of linux is better than kubuntu
[04:28] <TheGateKeeper> vinboy, well if you know gentoo, you will have very little with sabayon
[04:29] <Pensa`MIA> when I try to compile something I get this: checking for X... configure: error: Can't find X includes. Please check your installation and add the correct paths!
[04:29] <Pensa`MIA> how to fix it?
[04:29] <TheGateKeeper> vinboy, what desktop do you use?
[04:29] <vinboy> ?
[04:29] <chupa-chups> what destros of linux is better than kubuntu ????????????????
[04:29] <chupa-chups> any body give me answer
[04:30] <cloakable> chupa-chups: What do yu want to do?
[04:30] <cloakable> *you

[04:30] <rganti> can I get response to my question also please?
[04:30] <vinboy> kde
[04:30] <vinboy> i love kde
[04:31] <TheGateKeeper> vinboy, get the sabayon livedvd & run it up
[04:31] <rganti> how to get latest gtk 2.10 version from Adept?
[04:31] <rganti> From Adept Manager?
[04:31] <chupa-chups> i just wanna know what destros of linux is better than kubuntu ????????????????
[04:32] <hyper_ch> chupa-chups: that's a matter of personal taste and preference
[04:32] <chupa-chups> which of them has better performance
[04:32] <chupa-chups> or kubuntu enough
[04:32] <hyper_ch> chupa-chups: that's a matter of personal taste and preference
[04:32] <chupa-chups> mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
[04:33] <rganti> no one answering to my questions here
[04:33] <vinboy> TheGateKeeper: the size is pretty big
[04:33] <chupa-chups> i think kubuntu doesnt give me all that i need
[04:34] <TheGateKeeper> vinboy, yes there is a lot installed by default, including google world
[04:34] <hyper_ch> rganti: maybe no one knows
[04:34] <chupa-chups> till now i cant get dicionary , cannot deal with programs with other language
[04:34] <TheGateKeeper> chupa-chups, http://za1012001.googlepages.com/
[04:34] <rganti> I am getting a simple error "Ubable to connect to local host"
[04:35] <vinboy> Sabayon differs from Gentoo in that instead of installing the entire operating system from source code, the initial install is made using pre-compiled binary packages
[04:36] <tony__> hello everyone .. im trying to install program in dep format . i get error regardign depends packages. is that ok to install  those packages manually ?? or there is something else i should be doieng
[04:37] <DaSkreech> !adept crash fix
[04:37] <ubotu> If adept crashed on you and your database is locked, try this in konsole: 'sudo fuser -vki /var/lib/dpkg/lock;sudo dpkg --configure -a'
[04:39] <tony__> i think kubuntu is the best desktop
[04:39] <tony__> i found to be easiest OS to install :| eaiser then window .. ;)
[04:40] <DaSkreech> tony__: Welcome :)
[04:40] <tony__> thanks.
[04:40] <tony__> now to me my problme
[04:40] <tony__> lol
[04:40] <tony__> trying to install cinelerra
[04:40] <DaSkreech> yeah
[04:40] <tony__> i need about 10 packages .. can i install them manually
[04:41] <DaSkreech> !info cinelerra
[04:41] <ubotu> Package cinelerra does not exist in any distro I know
[04:41] <tony__> i get the error duing installation that missing depends
[04:41] <tony__> this is Movie editing program for linux
[04:41] <tony__> is not in repo
[04:42] <tony__> but all the depends packages are in repo which are not installed by default
[04:42] <DaSkreech> How can it not be in repo? :(
[04:42] <tony__> i have no idea. but it is not
[04:42] <tony__> i foun two of them one called kino , and this one
[04:43] <tony__> cinelerra by far seems to be more powerfull editing
[04:43] <tony__> although i found .dep package of the net
[04:44] <TheGateKeeper> vinboy, yes
[04:45] <tony__> i will install the packages manully , hope nothing crash when im done
[04:45] <knapp> how can you burn a Video DVD with k3b? I don't see an option...
[04:46] <tony__> Go to Tools , Copy DVD
[04:48] <knapp> tony__ I mean from VOBs.
[04:50] <tony__> then  i have no idea . sorry .
[04:51] <DaSkreech> Where did you find the deb file?
[04:51] <hastesaver> knapp, "New Video DVD project" *is* there in the menu, but you might want to use qdvdauthor
[04:52] <tony__> humm hold on . let me look the site again
[04:52] <knapp> hastesaver, thanks!
[04:53] <hastesaver> tony__, was it here: http://www.kiberpipa.org/~muzzol/cinelerra/bin/ ?
[04:54] <tony__> yes
[04:54] <tony__> i was looking for that
[04:57] <tony__> it would be awsom if someone package this for KUBUNTU :)
[04:57] <tony__> i personally would be great full
[04:59] <hastesaver> tony__, there are licensing issues: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=331072
[04:59] <tony__> i see
[04:59] <hastesaver> tony__, pity, because it's trivial to fix
[05:00] <hastesaver> tony__, Debian's problem is that some of the files don't come with a licence, but cinelerra is very much a GPL project :)
[05:00] <tony__> didn't even think if there is problmes like that for linux .. ( licencing )
[05:01] <soulrider> hi
[05:01] <tony__> i looked at the packages that i missing.. although i have them all in adapt. but some seems not the exact version so
[05:01] <soulrider> has anyone here ever used GTKRadiant ?
[05:01] <tony__> i m pretty scared on going about to install those packages
[05:01] <hastesaver> tony__, that's usually the *major* problem against including something in the repos :-)
[05:01] <tony__> pitty.. realy .. this program seems to be very capabale even compare to some i seen on window
[05:02] <mneisen> hi, is it possible to install kubuntu i386 on an AMD64 machine?
[05:02] <andreasw> yes it is
[05:03] <mneisen> andreasw: any drawbacks besides the obvious (no 64 bit mode)?
[05:03] <hastesaver> tony__, didn't running the .deb work?
[05:03] <tony__> i should put my fear aside and start installing the depencies :) .. well, im good at crashing stuff :) ..
[05:03] <tony__> it dose , but i missing 10 depndency :)
[05:03] <tony__> all have soemthing to do with mpeg and streaming
[05:04] <tony__> so during initial install , gives the errror and exit the install
[05:04] <Ricardo_Ram> I need to report a BIG BUG of Kubuntu
[05:04] <Ricardo_Ram> Where can I report it?
[05:04] <tony__> what is the bug ???
[05:04] <Ricardo_Ram> There is a big problem in Ubuntu with the USB Flash Drives.
[05:05] <Ricardo_Ram>
[05:05] <Ricardo_Ram> When the user deletes files in an USB Flash Drive, Ubuntu creates a "Trash Bin" (called " .Trash1000) that uses a lot of space.
[05:05] <Ricardo_Ram>
[05:05] <Ricardo_Ram> This "Trash Bin" is invisible in Linux, but in can be viewed in Microsoft Windows. An screenshot of this "Trash Bin" is available here. If an user deletes a file in an USB Pen Drive should be deleted definitively.

[05:16] <tony__> DO i need to reboot the system in order to see the effect of turning off IPV6 ?
[05:16] <brandon_> maybe restart X
[05:16] <tony__> thanks.
[05:17] <brandon_> i just don't know the code to do so
[05:17] <sivaji_> tell me how to use irc
[05:17] <brandon_> .. /join or /j #roomname
[05:17] <brandon_> get the room list from the program
[05:18] <brandon_> F5
[05:18] <brandon_> for room list
[05:18] <brandon_> how do I install xgl

[05:21] <horst23> Do you think that Britney Spears is a slutish women?
[05:21] <horst23> +a
[05:22] <TheGateKeeper> horst23, bring her round to our house & I will find out for you lol
[05:23] <brandon_> okay glx is enabled and my display still seems laggy
[05:23] <horst23> Are you a brotha? Gangbang?
[05:23] <soulrider> did you restart x ?
[05:24] <soulrider> horst23: i dont think you want to go on talking like that =/
[05:24] <horst23> yeah, allright budy
[05:24] <rich434> How do you uninstall the old firefox and its plugins
[05:24] <daedra> horst23: have another look at the channel name and topic lol
[05:25] <horst23> it's not a sexual chat, rather a geek one lol
[05:25] <tony_> i think it would be best to uninstall plugins from with it firefox first
[05:26] <tony_> then use Adept to request removal of firefox from the system :|
[05:26] <tony_> im just guessing
[05:26] <TheGateKeeper> rich434, apt-get remove --purge <package>
[05:26] <tony_> yehh.
[05:26] <tony_> that too
[05:26] <tony_> lol
[05:28] <daedra> hey does the purge flag pull the plugins with it?
[05:32] <TheGateKeeper> daedra, not sure, apt-get is very good at installing software, but not so hot at removing unwanted dependencies etc
[05:32] <TheGateKeeper> probable not might have to do that manually
[05:33] <hastesaver> TheGateKeeper, apt-get autoremove ?

[05:58] <sivaji__> thank god

[06:00] <sivaji__> how to register her how to use this icr
[06:00] <rance> Can someone recommend a sound card that works in kubuntu? I have a via based sound card integrated in the MB and kubuntu can't make it work, It can proprerly id the device and load the correct kernel-module for it, but I still can't use it
[06:01] <sivaji__> i get this error report {Nickname already in use. Trying sivaji_.}
[06:01] <TheGateKeeper> sivaji, http://www.irchighway.net/index.php?name=News&file=article&sid=107
[06:02] <tony_> you said , you had sound before ??? if thats the case , then kubuntu can work with your sound card
[06:03] <sivaji__> i get this error report {Nickname already in use. Trying sivaji_.}
[06:03] <tony_> just change your nickname
[06:04] <jerp> sivaji__: your current nick has two underlines  _ _ in it, a person can't have two connections with the same nick
[06:05] <rance> tony_ if you were talking to me about sound, yes, I can change which module loads for my card and get sound, but in doing so I only get kde system sounds, and other apps (specifically vmware) can't use the sound device
[06:06] <tony_> rance im myself new to linux.. and i been using nvidia integrated sound.. so be honest i have no clue .. but mine worked on a first boot ..
[06:10] <ABIOS> from everything i've lost i miss my mind the most :D
[06:10] <ABIOS> isn't that the woodchopper class :D
[06:10] <jerp> rance, is a mixer loaded

[06:21] <malik__> how do we update kernel?
[06:23] <jerp> malik, what do you mean?
[06:23] <jerp> install the latest from the repositories?
[06:23] <soulrider> malik__: if a new kernell update is available, apt-get/adept or whatever will install it
[06:24] <soulrider> or you can compile your own
[06:24] <soulrider> whoch unloess youre pro, i dont recommend
[06:25] <jerp> install the latest, uninstall the older one (beware, the one you are currently using won't uninstall)  reboot, watch for grub .... select the newer kernel.... and when you finally boot, go back and uninstall the old kernel
[06:26] <jerp> uninstall the older one (beware, the one you are currently using won't uninstall)  what will unisntall are the modules, not the kernel itself
[06:27] <jerp> enter grub with the escape key
[06:27] <malik__> well i dont know if i am using the right kind of kernel or not
[06:28] <malik__> i am using p4 3.0Ghz comp
[06:28] <jerp> what are your troubles?
[06:28] <jerp> with an intel cpu?
[06:29] <malik__> nothin its just when i was using fedora, it used to use latest kernewl
[06:29] <malik__> yes intel p4 3.0Ghz cpu one gig ddr ram
[06:29] <jerp> ok you said p4, that's intel
[06:30] <malik__> i just checked it n kubuntu edgy is tellin me that that i am using ............Linux malik-desktop 2.6.17-10-generic #2 SMP Tue Dec 5 22:28:26 UTC 2006 i686 GNU/Linux
[06:30] <MHK> hey guys, how can install manually openoffice2.1?
[06:30] <malik__> i dont know if its correct version for my mechine or not
[06:31] <sivaji> sivaji register<PHONE_NUMBER>72009<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[06:34] <malik__> MHK: add the repository from their website and use apt-get
[06:35] <jerp> malik, I think that is correct version
[06:35] <MHK> malik__ where do i find this?
[06:37] <linopil>  guys too few peers for ubuntu dvd burn pls join to download and share torrents http://cargol.net/~ramon/ubuntu-dvd-en
[06:40] <malik__> MHK: http://download.openoffice.org/2.1.0/index.html    ........ goto this page download it and u can install by clicking file. but its a big download abt 120mb
[06:40] <jerp> my install kernel was 2.6.17-10-amd64-generic  and that was because generic is the safe route to install, I later installed the specific kernel ......<IP_ADDRESS>-amd64-k8
[06:41] <MHK> malik_
[06:41] <MHK> malik__ well, i got it. but i can't install it. tried it with dpkg -i *.deb
[06:42] <malik__> what kinda file is it? .deb?
[06:43] <MHK> jep
[06:43] <malik__> how do i get specific 626 or 388 kernel?
[06:44] <MHK> got a huge bundle of deb-files some named with the program name and some with "core0x"
[06:44] <jerp> malik, it should be in you repository
[06:44] <TheGateKeeper> malik__, they are in the repos or look at the forums to build your own
[06:44] <cloakable> malik__: You using Edgy or Dapper?
[06:44] <malik__> jerp: where can i find specific kernel coz i cant see it coming up in my repos i.e. adept
[06:44] <cloakable> malik__: You using Edgy or Dapper?
[06:44] <MHK> malik__ looks like only feisty can handle OOO2.1

[08:04] <ubotu> The packages in Kubuntu are divided into various sections. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Kubuntu
[08:04] <zhu> i put 'sudo /opt/lampp/lampp start'
[08:04] <DaSkreech> ochipepe: read that page
[08:04] <ochipepe> ubotu: thanks
[08:04] <ubotu> You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-)
[08:04] <DaSkreech> zhu: In Command ?
[08:04] <zhu> i'm on KDE
[08:05] <DaSkreech> Yes I know inthe box on the tab apllication named Command
[08:05] <zhu> i put that
[08:05] <zhu> 'sudo /opt/lampp/lampp start'
 how can you open access to general repositories in adept?   sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list
[08:06] <zhu> did i have only to put 'start' and give the path in the field below?
[08:07] <DaSkreech> zhu: No I think that's right. The path is the folder that the ccommand is in
[08:07] <DaSkreech> What does that do when you click ok And then click the Link?
[08:07] <DaSkreech> zhu: Oh You amy need to put the entire thing in "" quotes
[08:13] <genii> Hello all
[08:14] <genii> Does anyone know if avalon got his wacom tablet drivers compiled and working?
[08:15] <DaSkreech> I don't
[08:16] <genii> DaSkreech OK thanks :) I left him here on xmas eve after helping him get build-essential and headers etc he needed to ompile but had not started the actual make process etc
[08:19] <genii> !netboot
[08:19] <ubotu> Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseNotes/UbiquityKnownIssues
[08:19] <genii> Hmm... is there a netboot specific irc channel?
[08:19] <Tachyon> When I'm enabling auto-login, what do the two settings "Persistent" and "Lock Session" do if I select them?
[08:21] <genii> Tachyon Lock Session akes it so that no matter how you leave the desktop it will always load however it was when you locked it
[08:21] <genii> Persistent setting I dunno :)
[08:22] <lupul> can anyone tell me a plugin like winamp dfx or winamp wow but for amarok or xmms?
[08:24] <BluesKaj> xmms is sorta like winamp , to my eyes
[08:24] <viper550> Just finished installing Edgy in VMWare Server
[08:28] <genii> viper550 Any issues or a smooth install?
[08:30] <koriel> how do I reconfigure the dpkg?
[08:31] <genii> koriel There is a package you wish to reconfigure?
[08:31] <Lynoure> I guess that'd by  dpkg-reconfigure dpkg, but it should not take much configuring
[08:31] <Tachyon> Did I go blind or where did the power management option go in Edgy's system settings?...
[08:31] <Lynoure> s/by/be
[08:32] <koriel> well every time I try to do apt-get update it freezes in some repository with a message "waiting for headers" and it's 99% complete
[08:32] <lwizardl> how do i manually set folder icon images
[08:33] <lwizardl> i'm going to be burning these folders to cdrom
[08:34] <genii> koriel I seems like some repository in /etc/apt/sources.list then is defective or not responding. If you know the exact url you could comment it out, or try an alternate url for somewhere near to you.
[08:35] <genii> likely the securit url. It is in new zealand somewhere and occasionally becomes stuck for places far from there
[08:38] <zhu> DaSkreech, still there?
[08:39] <zhu> does anyone knows how to create a launcher to launch a command like /opt/lampp/lampp start on a terminal?
[08:42] <zhu> does anyone knows how to create a launcher to launch a command like /opt/lampp/lampp start on a terminal?
[08:42] <brad_> how do i extract a multipart RAR ?
[08:43] <zhu> brad...with tar?
[08:44] <brad_> or ark
[08:44] <brad_> i have unrar , non-free installed
[08:44] <brad_> im trying todo it in the gui...
[08:44] <zhu> did u try with a tar -xvfg "name of the archive"?
[08:45] <zhu> simply
[08:45] <zhu> tar -xvfg name
[08:45] <brad_> no i didnt
[08:45] <brad_> thank u
[08:46] <zhu> ehi
[08:46] <zhu> it's better if u give a destination directory
[08:46] <zhu> tar -xvfg archive destination
[08:47] <zhu> just create a destination directory before
[08:47] <brad_> ok
[08:47] <zhu> does anyone know how to create a launcher to launch a command like /opt/lampp/lampp start on a terminal?
[08:47] <brad_> ty
[08:47] <brad_> tar: g: Cannot open: No such file or directory
[08:47] <brad_> tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now
[08:48] <genii> zhu I think your best bet with launching an app you want to be in a terminal is to copy the Konsole launcher, then add into the line for which command at the end the name of your app
[08:48] <zhu> you have to be in the same directory of the archive
[08:48] <zhu> or you have to give the path of the archive
[08:48] <brad_> i am zhu
[08:49] <zhu> brad...isn't it corrupt?
[08:49] <zhu> corrupted?
[08:49] <zhu> genii?
[08:49] <brad_> what does the g flag stand for?
[08:49] <zhu> what do u mean?
[08:49] <SSJ_GZ> brad_:I think the "f" might need to be the last flag in the list i.e. xvgf
[08:49] <zhu> genii, what do you mean?
[08:50] <SSJ_GZ> brad_:Wait - are you trying to extract a "rar", here? As far as I know, tar has no rar file support.
[08:50] <dennis_> gniiii!!!!???
[08:50] <brad_> yes SSJ_GZ its a multipart RAR....
[08:51] <SSJ_GZ> brad_:Ok, I'd be surprised if tar worked :) Have you tried unrar on the command-line?
[08:51] <mazyhaze> get that problem: http://uwsg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0608.3/0225.html while booting the install cd
[08:51] <brad_> no i havent
[08:52] <brad_> i thought i could just install unrar and ark would do it... but i was worng :(
[08:52] <SSJ_GZ> brad_:That's probably your best bet, although I've never tried with multipart archives.
[08:52] <SSJ_GZ> brad_:Figures - arK is my absolute least-favourite KDE app :)
[08:53] <brad_> lol
[08:53] <brad_> i hear that
[08:53] <brad_> k thanks guys :)
[08:53] <genii> zhu What I mean is that in Kubuntu there is an application called Konsole. You can make a launcher for Konsole on your desktop for instance byt right-click then Copy to Desktop   from the place it is in the menu. Then you can edit the desktop launcher for Konsol by right-clicking then going to which item contains the filename part to run whn the launcher is activated. After the line which...
[08:53] <genii> ...reads something like /usr/bin/konsole   then add the name of what file you wish to have running inside the Konsole  like /opt/lampp/lampp
[08:55] <Xera> hoi again
[08:57] <Xera> i got my graphics card working (radeon 9250), but i can't run any opengl apps, i get a lot of errors, can someone take a look? http://pastebin.co.uk/7852
[08:57] <mazyhaze> kubunutu installation hangs while booting, checksum is ok, no error
[08:58] <dope> can i use konversation in windows?
[08:58] <Xera> try and compile it?
[08:58] <dope> i don't have a compiler
[08:58] <mazyhaze> cygwin
[08:58] <luca_b> Xera: AFAIK fglrx doesn't support the 9250
[08:58] <zhu> genii...it doesn't work
[08:58] <hmg4> What is the best way to get as much information about current CPU and MOBO, and CPU temp?
[08:58] <Xera> luca_b: oh ._.
[08:59] <zhu> it opens an empty terminal
[08:59] <Xera> then where do i get a driver to support it?
[08:59] <Xera> the one from ati.com breaks X
[08:59] <luca_b> Xera: the OSS driver ("ati" or "radeon") should do the trick
[08:59] <mazyhaze> kubunutu installation hangs while booting, checksum is ok, no error
[08:59] <luca_b> it's installed by default
[08:59] <Xera> they run extremely slow
[09:00] <luca_b> Xera: that's because they're reerse-engineered and need still some work
[09:00] <luca_b> Xera: but ATI has decided not to support the 9250 cards
[09:00] <Xera> wtf
[09:00] <Xera> >:(
[09:00] <luca_b> and unlike NVIDIA
[09:00] <luca_b> they don't provide legacy drivers
[09:00] <Xera> ;s
[09:00] <genii> zhu OK lemme look into it
[09:01] <SSJ_GZ> zhu:Right-click on the desktop, select Create New -> Link To Application
[09:01] <luca_b> hmg4: you can use the sensors package
[09:01] <dthacke1> adept cannot locate a package called oggenc.  A search for ogg locate dozens of packages, though none say clearly they are an encoder
[09:01] <luca_b> hmg4: actually you *need* it to run any sensor related program
[09:01] <zhu> SSJ: done
[09:01] <SSJ_GZ> zhu:In Application -> Command, add  /opt/lampp/lampp
[09:01] <lupine_85> !info oggenc edgy
[09:01] <ubotu> Package oggenc does not exist in edgy
[09:01] <lupine_85> what it says

[09:02] <SSJ_GZ> zhu:In Advanced Options, check Run in Terminal
[09:02] <zhu> SSJ: done
[09:02] <dthacke1> I'm on dapper
[09:02] <lupine_85> !info mp32ogg dapper
[09:02] <luca_b> BTW, has anyone tried using beryl 0.1.4 on edgy?
[09:02] <mazyhaze> again: ubunutu installation hangs while booting, checksum is ok, no error

[09:02] <lupine_85> there you go
[09:02] <lupine_85> luca_b: yes :D
[09:02] <luca_b> I get a segfault if I run aquamarine
[09:02] <daedra> isn't lossy transcoding a very horrible and wrong thing!
[09:02] <SSJ_GZ> zhu:Does it still not work even with Run in Terminal checked?
[09:02] <luca_b> about to open a ticket for it but I want to see if anyone else had that problem
[09:02] <Xera> so, in xorg.conf change Driver "fglrx" to Driver "radeon" ?
[09:02] <zhu> SSJ still not work
[09:03] <luca_b> Xera: try "ati" first
[09:03] <Xera> ok
[09:03] <lupine_85> daedra: it's not lossy transcoding - it's a direct conversion
[09:03] <hmg4> luca_b: Sensors-applet? looking into it
[09:03] <lupine_85> luca_b: not tried aquamarine. I'll give it a go now.

[09:03] <luca_b> hmg4: there's ksysguard on KDE
[09:03] <SSJ_GZ> zhu:What happens  when you double-click on your new shortcut?
[09:03] <luca_b> hmg4: but you need lm-sensors instaled
[09:03] <daedra> I don't see the difference...

[09:03] <dthacke1> lupine_85: this converts mp3 to ogg.  Kscd does not rip to mp3, does it?
[09:03] <lupine_85> daedra: then take my word for it :). There's no loss of quality
[09:03] <zhu> SSJ it opens a terminal and it closes after less than a second
[09:04] <lupine_85> Kscd can rip straight to ogg, I'd imagine
[09:04] <daedra> lupine_85: ok ;)
[09:04] <SSJ_GZ> zhu:Very odd :/
[09:04] <zhu> DONE
[09:04] <zhu> DONE
[09:04] <zhu> IT WORKS!
[09:04] <daedra> lupine_85: I've been meaning to convert my mp3's to ogg for a while, but the idea transcoding put me off
[09:04] <SSJ_GZ> SSJ_GZ:Hooray!
[09:04] <zhu> i had to use sudo
[09:05] <SSJ_GZ> zhu:Hooray!
[09:05] <zhu> before the command
[09:05] <zhu> thank you SSJ
[09:05] <SSJ_GZ> zhu:Ah!
[09:05] <SSJ_GZ> zhu:np =)
[09:05] <lupine_85> hmm, yes - aquamarine crashes here if it's not given --replace; if it is given --replace, it crashes beryl!
[09:06] <dthacke1> lupine_85:  kscd is asking me for a path to an ogg encoder program.  I'm trying to find the right program to make it work.
[09:06] <hmg4> luca_b: Thanks looking at sensors, gonna use it on a ubuntu-server with no gui
[09:06] <lupine_85>  BUT it works if done through beryl-manager...
[09:06] <zhu> thank you very much SSJ
[09:06] <zhu> sto godendo come un pazzo
[09:06] <luca_b> lupine_85: I got crashes in all cases, I'll post a ticket through beryl
[09:06] <lupine_85> ok
[09:07] <luca_b> hmg4: there's a gkrellm plugin that you can use to remotely see a sensor
[09:07] <luca_b> hmg4: lm-sensors is the daemon that runs, if you install gkrellm-server then a client on any machine
[09:07] <luca_b> you can monitor it

[09:20] <Xera> when i booted up my monitor said "cannot display this video mode" on both ati and radeon
[09:21] <Xera> suggestions anyone?
[09:23] <Tachyon> Firefox is behaving oddly. o_O  I've upgraded to Edgy, and I'm trying to install some extensions.  However after clicking "Restart Firefox", firefox closes but doesn't restart.  And some of the extensions are behaving really weird--Google Browser Sync isn't doing anything, and NoScript refuses to bring up its preferences for me.
[09:23] <Xera> o.O

[10:07] <basti> maybe format yar hdd
[10:07] <mgastkn> Anyone know the line I need to type to register?
[10:07] <raphink> man motd ;)
[10:07] <DaSkreech> SSJ_GZ: Why do You hate Ark?
[10:07] <raphink> mgastkn: /help register
[10:07] <__osh__> Are there any "server tools" for kubuntu? Like how to configure a printer.
[10:07] <andrea> basti, why would i need to format?
[10:07] <__osh__> andrea: What were the errors?
[10:07] <SSJ_GZ> DaSkreech:Oh, man - don't get me started ;)
[10:08] <raphink> __osh__: hmm what would be the point of have a graphical interface for a server?
[10:08] <basti> 2 years new files and delted files and so crash the filesystem
[10:08] <andrea> __osh__: logical error in block: ***
[10:09] <__osh__> raphink: That's my point. I can't find any ncurses-tools or similar for the "kubuntu-server" installation.
[10:09] <andrea> i have a better view in dmesg but i am not a pro console user, and in text mode i dunno how to copy&pastee
[10:09] <raphink> kubuntu-server?
[10:09] <MightyMike> how you can share files here at irc? :O
[10:09] <raphink> there's no such thing as kubuntu server
[10:09] <basti> andrea: cp is yar command
[10:09] <basti> to copy
[10:09] <raphink> you mean ubuntu-server __osh__?
[10:09] <DaSkreech> daedra: Konqueror can rip to Ogg
[10:10] <__osh__> raphink: sure, ubuntu-server. It's all the same base anyway.
[10:10] <andrea> however... how can i make a fsck on the root partition?
[10:10] <raphink> yes
[10:10] <raphink> __osh__: what do you need tools for exactly ?
[10:10] <andrea> i can't unmount it! do i have to use an online distro?
[10:10] <basti> try it knoppix way =)
[10:10] <MightyMike> this is good place to ask if you have ubuntu problems? or is there some other place also?
[10:11] <daedra> DaSkreech: I know - via the nifty KIO interface ^^
[10:11] <__osh__> andrea: do an fsck perhaps. See if the error goes away. Otherwise install smartmontools (if your disks support SMART) and test them with that.
[10:11] <mgastkn> mgastkn:/help register
[10:12] <Xera> MightyMike: #ubuntu ?
[10:12] <MightyMike> i think my flash problem is too hard :/....i can live...if i dont hear any flashanimation sounds.....but still it sucks :D
[10:12] <__osh__> raphink: A tool to setup a printer would be nice. Rather than guessing what to write in cups.conf
[10:12] <Xera> http://forums.ubuntu.com
[10:12] <Xera> goto the tips section
[10:12] <raphink> __osh__: you could turn on the admin interface on port 631
[10:12] <Xera> search for flash sound, there's loads of things about it
[10:12] <raphink> __osh__: http that is
[10:12] <mgastkn> someone gave me the command last night. I wiill know it when I see it (to register my name)
[10:13] <__osh__> raphink: That's a good idea. Didn't think of that. Thanks.
[10:13] <MightyMike> xera....i can try to look...but i think there is something close to my prob...but not it :D
[10:13] <raphink> __osh__: then turn it off once it's set
[10:13] <andrea> __osh__: __osh__ anyway.. lately my drive started doing some weird noises..
[10:13] <raphink> or not ;)
[10:14] <MightyMike> hmm.. i'm not registered....thats why i cant write private messages to you all!!!
[10:14] <Xera> MightyMike: it will probably work, i never used to get sound in flash until i used one of those tutorials
[10:14] <__osh__> raphink: Still, my point still stands I think. Since there is a server-install I think there should be some server-tools. Similar to what redhat has.
[10:14] <lupul> does anyone know a where is it like app?
[10:14] <andrea> not really often, but it still does.. something like an elastic in tension that is then released.. not really loud though
[10:14] <lupul> for edgy
[10:14] <__osh__> andrea: Then you should definitly go for smartmontools. And make sure your backups are working.
[10:14] <raphink> lupul: ???
[10:15] <MightyMike> okey wait you all...i'm reading a while......
[10:15] <lupul> ?
[10:15] <raphink> __osh__: well you can use lp*
[10:15] <andrea> __osh__: my backups?
[10:15] <raphink> lupul: what exactly do you mean?
[10:15] <lupul> a cd catalog
[10:16] <lupul> like "where is it" on windows
[10:17] <lupul> ?
[10:17] <raphink> did  you search for it?
[10:17] <lupul> yeas
[10:17] <raphink> apt-cache search cd catalog
[10:17] <__osh__> raphink: Yes, but still. There should be some uniform way to configure lots of different server things. NTP, Printer, Samba... that kind of things. Things you use your server for.
[10:17] <raphink> gives at least 3 interesting results
[10:17] <__osh__> andrea: Make  sure you have backups if the disk crashes.
[10:17] <raphink> __osh__: hmmm yes
[10:17] <lupul> i'm a newbee so....
[10:17] <lupul> apt-cache......... ?
[10:18] <raphink> oh ok
[10:18] <raphink> well you can search in adept then
[10:18] <raphink> "apt-cache search" allows to search the packages database for packages matching a pattern
[10:18] <__osh__> raphink: So I guess I should fire up my python shell and get cracking... :-/
[10:18] <lupul> aha
[10:18] <raphink> __osh__: good idea :)
[10:18] <lupul> ok thanks
[10:19] <raphink> __osh__: I'm sure everybody would be happy with that
[10:19] <mgastkn> I'm sorry to keep asking this: What do I type to register?
[10:19] <raphink> although I'd rather see it done in perl :)
[10:19] <raphink> but well :)
[10:19] <raphink> mgastkn: did you read /help register?
[10:19] <raphink> mgastkn: it explains how to use it
[10:19] <raphink> ah no
[10:19] <raphink> lol
[10:19] <raphink>  /msg nickserv help register
[10:20] <mgastkn> No response when I typed it
[10:20] <raphink> mgastkn: type what I just pasted
[10:20] <andrea> __osh__: fsck revealed errors.. what should i do? go directly to smartmontools or use knoppix and fix the errors with fsck?
[10:20] <__osh__> raphink: Perl? My first love too, however there's something to be said for structured code and Python really enforces that in a nice way. Perl can be really REALLY unreadable.
[10:20] <raphink> __osh__: python functions are really illogic ;)
[10:20] <raphink> __osh__: there's ruby somewhere in between
[10:20] <__osh__> andrea: smartmontolls can't fix anything for you, just reveal if your disk is about crash.
[10:21] <andrea> oh
[10:21] <andrea> i just installed the package..
[10:21] <andrea> what's the command to start the check?
[10:21] <mgastkn> mgastkn: REGISTER
[10:21] <__osh__> andrea: Don't remember. Check the manpage: Konqueror man:/smartmontools
[10:21] <andrea> eheh, can't access that!
[10:21] <andrea> i am in terminal :)
[10:21] <mgastkn>  /msg nickserv help register
[10:22] <raphink> without the space mgastkn ;)
[10:22] <__osh__> andrea: smartctl --help
[10:22] <MightyMike> XERA....well my problem is different :)
[10:23] <Xera> k
[10:23] <mgastkn> didn't work. sorry
[10:23] <MightyMike> i will get sound from flash.....when i using soundcards jack connector......but when i but usb headset.....sound goes mute
[10:24] <andrea> __osh__: now i remember, my disk was SMART enabled :)
[10:24] <__osh__> raphink: All languages have their warts imho. Right now I write most things in Python. If I find something better, I'll switch. Just as I switched from Perl to Python.
[10:24] <mgastkn> space between what?
[10:25] <MightyMike> ln -f /dev/dsp1 /dev/dsp <--- helps to but sound to mu usb headset.....but flash sounds are still mute :/
[10:25] <mgastkn>  /msg nickserv help register
[10:26] <__osh__> Now my battery has run out. G'nite boys and girls.
[10:26] <raphink> mgastkn: space before /msg

[10:46] <cubdukat> Hello all.
[10:47] <cubdukat> This is my first time around using Kubuntu on my laptop, and I was hoping someone could help me
[10:47] <MightyMike> <---- how i get rid off that (away)
[10:47] <Xera> /back
[10:47] <cubdukat> I recently installed Dapper Drake from a CD, and I've finally got it working the way I want it to, but I was looking to upgrade to Edgy Eft.
[10:48] <MightyMike> WUhuuuu!! *jumping*
[10:48] <linopil> Xera, is logging easy on konversation?
[10:48] <Xera> linopil: yes
[10:48] <cubdukat> I've already tried doing kdesu "update-manager -c" but it looks like update-manager isn't an option.
[10:48] <Xera> settings->configure konversation->logging->enable logging
[10:48] <Xera> then ~/.kde/share/apps/konversation/logs ;)
[10:48] <linopil> tyvm xera
[10:49] <cubdukat> And I'd like to avoid editing sources in Adept.
[10:49] <cubdukat> Is there an easier way to do it that I'm missing?
[10:50] <Xera> cubdukat: view->manage repos~

[10:51] <cubdukat> Okay, I'm there now.
[10:51] <rance> hey tony_ you around?
[10:51] <cubdukat> Do I deactivate all the sources I have now for Dapper or do I modify them?
[10:52] <MightyMike> where i can change flash 9 plugins dsp?.......because i think its still /dev/dsp....even it should be now /dev/dsp1 because of my usb headset
[10:54] <linopil> Xera, konversation has sounds like gaim?
[10:54] <Xera> no, no sounds
[10:55] <Xera> unless there's an option for them, no

[10:59] <excitatory> so.. the rendering speed of firefox on my system is horrible.  konq render speed is nice, but i don't use it too frequently for www.  over the holiday weekend i was on a slower ubuntu and windows machine, and firefox rendering speeds were phenomenally faster than my much faster box..
[10:59] <excitatory> andreasw: kcontrol is how i do it.
[10:59] <DaSkreech> linopil: Konverstion can have sounds
[10:59] <DaSkreech>  what sounds are you looking for?
[10:59] <andreasw> excitatory: I only found a way to completely disable error correction
[11:00] <andreasw> excitatory: But I want to tweak it rather than disabling it
[11:00] <linopil> gaim has defaults
[11:00] <excitatory> andreasw: yes.. i just noticed that.. would be nice come to think of it.
[11:00] <linopil> DaSkreech, as default as possible. quickly switchimg machines doimg installs and tunings
[11:01] <DaSkreech> Umm Not sure about default stuff but if you look under Settings -> Notifications
[11:01] <DaSkreech> you can see sound settings for events tehre

[11:05] <habesha> here goes >> Can someone give me an idea on how to convert a key generated by PuTTY (.ppk) into OpenSSH format using ssh-keygen??
[11:05] <linopil> bulgarian in ubuntu-bg peshk0
[11:05] <DaSkreech> habesha: can you open it in a text editor?
[11:06] <habesha> DaSkreech I am on an XP machine now./. made a key  with putty gen and sent it to my ubuntu box using scp
[11:06] <habesha> it is saved as id_rsa.ppk
[11:06] <DaSkreech> habesha: Ah ok then I think you can take off the .ppk
[11:07] <habesha> u sure it is that easy?
[11:07] <malik_> how do we kill a program if its stuck?
[11:07] <lupine_85> malik_: with a hammer
[11:07] <DaSkreech> *shrugs*
[11:07] <lupine_85> or killall <program name>
[11:07] <lupine_85> or kill <pid>
[11:07] <lupine_85> add -9 to kill with extreme prejudice
[11:07] <DaSkreech> habesha: If you could open it in Notepad I could give you better info :)
[11:08] <Sanne> malik_: or graphically with ksysguard
[11:08] <malik_> so i need to  install hammer package?
[11:08] <lupine_85> malik_: I believe the hammer command is in the horror package
[11:08] <lupine_85> !info hammer edgy
[11:08] <ubotu> Package hammer does not exist in edgy
[11:08] <lupine_85> hmm
[11:08] <habesha> DaSkreech ok.. it is open in notepad now
[11:08] <malik_> ksysguard sometime doesnt work
[11:08] <DaSkreech> Whats the first part say?
[11:09] <JohnFlux> malik_: in what way?
[11:09] <Sanne> malik_: then try those other fine suggestions
[11:09] <habesha> PuTTY-User-Key-File-2: ssh-rsa
[11:09] <malik_> sometime i try to kill a process with it n it says not enough permissions
[11:09] <lupine_85> sudo it
[11:09] <lupine_85> or kdesu it
[11:09] <DaSkreech> habesha: should do it then
[11:09] <DaSkreech> rename the .ppk to .pub
[11:09] <lupine_85> some processes run as root for various reasons
[11:11] <habesha> Server refused our key
[11:11] <habesha> this is the error PuTTY is giving me now...
[11:11] <malik_> one more thing .......i am looking for a way to convert my ntfs data drive to ext3 without destroying data on it...............any i deas?......its a 120gig HDD
[11:11] <habesha> renamed .ppk to .pub and used the ppk on this machine as a key through PuTTY
[11:11] <JohnFlux> malik_: copy the data elsewhere :-)
[11:11] <malik_> i thought partition magic could do that but ALAS i was wrong
[11:12] <DaSkreech> the ppk is public or private key?
[11:12] <habesha> there are no directives in the sshd config to enable key authentication are there?
[11:12] <habesha> it's private...
[11:13] <DaSkreech> habesha: No
[11:13] <DaSkreech> Never
[11:13] <DaSkreech> ever
[11:13] <DaSkreech> ever
[11:13] <DaSkreech> under any circumstance
[11:13] <DaSkreech>  give out your private
[11:14] <habesha> hmm.. well I didn't know the difference. so I picked private when I generated the key thru PuTTYgen
[11:14] <DaSkreech> Nope it' public you are looking for
[11:17] <habesha> well, now that I made a public key and called it id_rsa... here's the error I am getting >> Unable to use key file "P:\Dls\id_rsa" (not a private key)
[11:19] <habesha> anyways.. i thought this was going to be an easy thing to do since eveyone talks about making your ssh connection more secure... but none of the howtos assume client side will be windows...
[11:19] <habesha> thanks for the help
[11:22] <excitatory> think digiKam or picasa are better photo managers?

[11:26] <_vinboy> hi.. i want to switch to kubuntu.. but i have a few questions.. 1) are the software on Kubuntu respository very up to date?
[11:27] <lupine_85> _vinboy: pretty much
[11:27] <_vinboy> i heard that after the release, only securities are being updated
[11:27] <Guns> ok im back
[11:27] <lupine_85> _vinboy: that's true, but there's a new release every 6 months
[11:27] <lupine_85> and upgrading is easy
[11:27] <Sanne> _vinboy: that's true, during a version's life cycle the package versions are stable.
[11:27] <lupine_85> at the expense of a bit of up-to-dateness, you get a lot more stability
[11:28] <Guns> lupine_85: what to do ?
[11:28] <lupine_85> install xlibs-dev
[11:28] <_vinboy> ic...
[11:28] <Sanne> _vinboy: you can find out the versions at packages.ubuntu.com
[11:28] <Guns> ok
[11:28] <_vinboy> thx
[11:28] <superkirbyartist> Okay, I installed Lexmark Z600 drivers, they do not appear in the "Add printer Wizard", can someone please help me?
[11:29] <_vinboy> second question) i know i can upgrade to the new release without reinstalling, but is that going to be as stable as fresh install?
[11:29] <_vinboy> it used to be not so stable
[11:30] <superkirbyartist> Help with printer?  I've asked so many timer!
[11:31] <Sanne> superb0wl: if nobody answers, it means that nobody knows how to help. Don't feel ignored. Maybe you have more luck in #ubuntu, since there are much more users.
[11:32] <superkirbyartist> *Sigh* printer doesn't work.
[11:32] <Sanne> superkirbyartist: if nobody answers, it means that nobody knows how to help. Don't feel ignored. Maybe you have more luck in #ubuntu, since there are much more users.
[11:32] <Sanne> superb0wl: sorry
[11:32] <superkirbyartist> Sanne: No way.
[11:33] <dmhouse> Hey all. I've just bought a new keyboard, and it's one of these fancy modern ones with 'Media keys' at the top. Is there any way I could get these to work in Kubuntu?
[11:33] <Sanne> superkirbyartist: no luck in #ubuntu?
[11:33] <mgastkn> Hi everyone. I completed by Kubuntu install. Question: How do I get rid of the login? I don't need or want it.
[11:33] <superkirbyartist> Lexmark X1270 printer installed z600 drivers do not appear in "Add a Printer"
[11:33] <superkirbyartist> Sanne: No luck in ##linux either.
[11:34] <Sanne> superkirbyartist: unfortunately, I don't know either. Best I could tell you is check the ubuntu wiki and forums, and maybe also linuxprinting.org for specific info on your printer.
[11:34] <mgastkn> Can I just delete my login name?
[11:34] <superkirbyartist> I did for LinuxPrinting.org
[11:35] <superkirbyartist> It says "works perfectly"/
[11:35] <Sanne> mgastkn: no!
[11:35] <mgastkn> What do I do?
[11:36] <mgastkn> Thanks for responding, Sanne
[11:36] <Sanne> superkirbyartist: there should be a details page for your printer with more info on what/why/how of the driver to use.
[11:36] <rjdittus> How do I uninstall kubuntu?
[11:37] <superkirbyartist> Sanne:Be right back
[11:37] <Sanne> mgastkn: there is an option for auto login in system settings, but keep in mind it's a security hole.
[11:37] <dmhouse> I can get a response out of xev when I press the media keys at the top of my keyboard, and they seem to have keycodes. Which program would I need to use to map their key presses to a command?
[11:38] <mgastkn> where is it in system settings. I don't want to have to keep entering passwords
[11:38] <Sanne> mgastkn: I saw it somewhere, try to find it, I'll also look for it in a moment.
[11:39] <rjdittus> How do I uninstall kubuntu?
[11:39] <mgastkn> It must be in user management, I think, but that's as far as I've gotten
[11:40] <Sanne> mgastkn: it's in Login Manager/Convenience
[11:40] <Sanne> mgastkn: and *do* read the help ;)
[11:41] <mgastkn> Where is Login Manager located.
[11:41] <DaSkreech> !info wesnoth

[11:42] <ralph_> Hi all. I just got my new Dell Inspiron E1705 unpacked and running. I was told all would just work. But alass it does not. This is the first notebook computer and the first one with wireless and I would like to get that working before I move up to edgy. Can any one help me get wireless working?

[11:44] <Schuenemann> in distros where you have the root, only users that know its password can use root commands
[11:44] <mgastkn> Well,  I guess I'm not sure what I have. I downloaded it recently, and just installed it.
[11:44] <DaSkreech> rjdittus: I've asked you already what you want to do
[11:45] <TheGateKeeper> Schuenemann, if you look at sudo you can control what a user can & can not do, have a look at the documentation
[11:45] <rjdittus> I want to uninstall kubuntu
[11:45] <Schuenemann> !su
[11:45] <DaSkreech> rjdittus: give me some more information

[11:45] <rjdittus> Well I just need to uninstall it cause I want to try out a different linux distro
[11:45] <mgastkn> where does it tell me what version I have?

[11:46] <linopil> then repartition rjdittus
[11:47] <linopil> problem solved ? rjdittus

[11:55] <DaSkreech> linopil: Highly doubt it :)
[11:55] <mgastkn> Sanne, Maybe I'm typing it wrong. Is that a "one" or an "el"
[11:55] <j__> linopil: you never know
[11:55] <brandon_> DaSkreech: I added the repo and search wine and those are the only things that come up

[12:00] <rag> hello all
[12:00] <mgastkn> Sanne, I'm sorry. It won't give me the info.
[12:00] <ralph_> genii: To tell you the truth I do not know. I just unwrapped it and was told that all would just work. There is no tech info with it.
[12:00] <Sanne> mgastkn: ok, another way. Do you know how to open your sources.list?
[12:00] <rag> some body know for sony mobile and bluetooth connection?

[12:03] <ralph_> genii: Thanks off reading
[12:03] <Sanne> mgastkn: are you sure you're on kubuntu? ;)
[12:03] <claydoh> If it won't show up in Feisty (wine)
[12:03] <claydoh> http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/archive/index.html
[12:03] <claydoh> for deb downloads
[12:03] <mgastkn> Sanne, I appologize for taking so much of your time.  I'm not. But I undertand if you think I am
[12:04] <mgastkn> Sanne, yes
[12:04] <DaSkreech> brandon_: though if you are going feisty I'd check in on the #ubuntu-dev folks to make sure that it won't mess you up
[12:04] <Sanne> mgastkn: no need to apologize :). I know how confusing things can be at the start. I was the same some years ago :)
[12:04] <M_> What are the help channels?
[12:04] <DaSkreech>  External repos are a good candidate to disable when you are sliding the razor
[12:04] <brandon_> DaSkreech: why would it if I compile it?
[12:04] <mgastkn> Sanne, thanks, Sanne
[12:04] <DaSkreech> M_: Help with what?
[12:04] <DaSkreech> brandon_: It would't but why would you want to compile?
[12:04] <Sanne> mgastkn: what if you only type: kwrite      Does the text editor start?
[12:04] <M_> I can't play any videos, Mplayer says I need codecs.
[12:05] <brandon_> DaSkreech: because there isn't a package available for my system?
[12:05] <mgastkn> Sanne, It worked
[12:05] <mgastkn> Sanne, it opened Kwrite
[12:05] <brandon_> x86_64
[12:05] <mgastkn> Sanne, also a bunch of errors
[12:05] <Sanne> mgastkn: ok, can you now try to navigate to /etc/apt/ and find the file sources.list and open it? You have to go to the top level directory first.
[12:06] <M_> DaSkreech,  I want to be able to watch video and listen to music like mp3, xvid, wma, wmv etc.
[12:06] <Sanne> mgastkn: disregard the errors for now.

[12:06] <mgastkn> Sanne, where do I go now. All I did was open Kwrite
[12:07] <DaSkreech> claydoh: Don't mind help. I'll just take pride in that I personalized it
[12:07] <claydoh> :P
[12:07] <Sanne> mgastkn: in kwrite, go to file/open, the to top level directory and then to /etc/apt. There find the file sources.list and open it in kwrite.
[12:07] <claydoh> IO am not too bot-knowledgable
[12:08] <mgastkn> Sanne, the top level directory is "desktop"
[12:09] <Sanne> mgastkn: no, at the top left click on the up arrow until you see "/" in the folder input line. Then you'll find /etc
[12:09] <mgastkn> Sanne, I'm not sure what to do
[12:09] <DaSkreech> claydoh: Me either I just pick up stuff
[12:09] <Sanne> mgastkn: you see the up arrow?
[12:09] <M_> What does this mean? M is not in the sudoers file.  This incident will be reported .  I tried to copy and paste into terminal to install codecs
[12:10] <DaSkreech> claydoh: though Seveas prepped me that they are chan aware now which is nice I need to figure out how that works
[12:10] <superkirbyartist> DUDES THE PRINTER WORKS THANK YOU AND SORRY FOR BEING RUDE BUT IT WORKS!

[12:10] <M_> DaSckreech only user.
[12:10] <DaSkreech> M_: are is the user you have now a new one created after the install?
[12:11] <Sanne> mgastkn: ok, you can also just type in "/" in the input field at the top.
[12:11] <DaSkreech> And you don't have sudo?
[12:11] <DaSkreech> Seveas: hi :-) Sorry Forgot that would wake you up
[12:11] <M_> yum and yum exteder??
[12:11] <DaSkreech> Seveas: Just discussing hte bots

[12:11] <mgastkn> Sanne, clicked he arrow, see the folder with the slash
[12:12] <mgastkn> Sanne, what next?
[12:12] <Sanne> mgastkn: cool! now you should find the folder /etc in the folder list
