[00:23] <tekteen> anyone know of a good cli web browser? better then lynx?
[00:24] <Antkin> Try Opera

[00:36] <GerrySly> g'day guys, I have a question for you, is there a way you can mount a network computer only when it is available?
[00:37] <GerrySly> because the network I am on the computers aren't always on, but when I need to access them my computer has already been on and I need to mount them manually or just smbclient which can be rather tedious
[00:37] <Dr_willis> Hmm.. Depends on how its shareing things/getting mounted I imagine.
[00:37] <Dr_willis> for samba you may want to check out that fusesmb (smbfuse) tool.
[00:37] <Dr_willis> !info fusesmb

[00:37] <jussi01> sudo mount -a will attempt to mount everything in your fstab
[00:37] <ubuntu> tekteen: you can also take a look at w3m.
[00:37] <Dr_willis> It sort of shows the whole samba network. as new machines connect. new shares show up.
[00:38] <heinkel_111> hello, does anyone here run a standard, up-to-date updated version of kubuntu 7.10 Gutsy (preferably 64 bit)?
[00:38] <GerrySly> i'll take a look into it, I have used mount before to mount the network device, but that only mounted on startup and then people would switch the machine on and off and it would unmount and not remount when they reconnect
[00:38] <heinkel_111> i need to know which kernel you are running!
[00:39] <Administrator__> can anyone help me ?
[00:39] <Dr_willis> there is a fusesmb wiki page on the ubuntu wiki pages site. thats worth reading.
[00:39] <heinkel_111> i seem to have some 2.6.14 (uname -r) but then there are some error messages related to 2.6.22? What do you have on your computer?
[00:39] <GerrySly> alright cheers Dr_willis, i'll give it a good read

[01:20] <BanTam> gd evening
[01:31] <mr_edge> anyone have an answer?   when I fire up QTparted it says the ACTIVEpartition is sda3, but when I type df -h in bash it says sda1 which should be correct.
[01:31] <mrunagi> lol can someone write an imwheelrc script for me

[02:03] <triorieel> ^I have a feeling its supposed to be simple, but I am now 2 days into and my 4rth forced install of kubuntu
[02:05] <Dragnslcr> triorieel- leave KDE as one desktop and set the number of virtual desktops through Compiz
[02:06] <triorieel> where is that option?
[02:06] <tekteen> under general options
[02:07]  * martijn81 hopes more users will use the kwin composite effects, they are easier to get your hands on
[02:07] <triorieel> Thank you, that worked.  is there an applet to show these new windows for the bar?
[02:07] <tekteen> General Options > Desktop Size
[02:07] <tekteen> yes
[02:07] <tekteen> hold on
[02:07] <martijn81> compiz is hard to learn, too many options
[02:08] <martijn81> triorieel: kde4 composite effects rule, reallyt
[02:08] <Erickj92> why dont all the water effects work in compiz? like a lot of them are greyed out in the options for the hotkeys.
[02:08] <tekteen> martijn81: I found them to be jerky
[02:08] <triorieel> Ive been having enough issues lately, Ithink I will stick with kde3 as I think its more stable
[02:08] <tekteen> triorieel: ask in #compiz
[02:09] <tekteen> yes
[02:09] <tekteen> it is more stable
[02:09] <martijn81> tekteen: yeah, blur currently crashes the whole desktop
[02:09] <martijn81> you should not use that one
[02:09] <martijn81> but the rest is ok for me

[02:29] <toxop1asma> thanks
[02:29] <toxop1asma> will that fix it? or do i need anything else?

[03:33] <nosrednaekim> ibilic» it should be slow.... turn off desktop effects
[03:34] <ibilic> the theme is also too big for my monitor... I only have 15'
[03:35] <ibilic> so, I could change everything, decrease the font size and turn off all the effects... but I might as well just revert back to KDE3
[03:36] <ibilic> "the KDA media manager is not running"?
[03:37] <ibilic> what does that mean? I've never seen it before
[03:37] <nosrednaekim> right... well, search in adept for "kde4" in the package name and remove all paclages with that

[04:16] <crackhead_25> hp 3550. it worked fine yesterday
[04:16] <decay> how do i upgrade to kernel 2.6.24?
[04:17] <crackhead_25> i did a feisty to gutsy upgrade.
[04:17] <NickPresta> decay, the version in the repos is 2.6.22, I believe. If you want the most recent kernel, you have to compile it (and anything else related to it that needs to be compiled) from source.
[04:18] <decay> NickPresta: i see....do you know when x/k/ubuntu will add 2.6.24 to their repo?
[04:19] <NickPresta> decay, I believe Hardy (the next stable *buntu release, in April) should be running 2.6.24.
[04:19] <decay> ahhh i have to wait till end of april
[04:20] <martijn81> it is
[04:20] <NickPresta> decay, is there something specific you need in .24?
[04:20] <decay> Yes. the BCM43xx drivers.
[04:21] <NickPresta> decay, ndiswrapper doesn't work?
[04:21] <decay> NickPresta: it didn't. i tried downloading and installing the bcm43xx manually as well, but it didn't work either. So my last hope is to just dl the kernel with the support for it
[04:21] <crackhead_25> dope: can you help me with the printer?
[04:22] <J4ZZ> hi there...
[04:22] <dope> unfortunately, no
[04:22] <J4ZZ> someone ther?
[04:22] <J4ZZ> need help with spdif to 5.1 sound...
[04:22]  * decay will be right back
[04:23] <NickPresta> decay, I'm sorry to hear that you can't get wifi working. I don't know much about Wifi (I like a Ralink card). I would try asking again later when others are around who may be able to suggest an alternate solution
[04:24] <NickPresta> decay, if you need to try the latest kernel now, check this out. It is very informative: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile
[04:25] <NickPresta> decay, actually, that page won't help you compile the latest kernel from kernel.org. Sorry about that
[04:25] <Darkmystere> Err, can some one help me wicd wont connect to any wireless networks anymore...it used to work but after something it just fakes like its working
[04:26] <NickPresta> decay, This page will explain how to compile a kernel from source (from kernel.org) however: http://www.howtoforge.com/kernel_compilation_ubuntu
[04:26] <Darkmystere> it shows that its connected for a few seconds then goes back to the not connected thing
[04:26] <Darkmystere> iwconfig acctually somtimes shows the mac addresss but its always the same one no matter if i use y wireless network or someone elses...i think its malfuntioning.
[04:26] <Darkmystere> but im on my ubuntu live cd and its connected i thought it was just my card was half way on but it may be sometyhing else
[04:27]  * Darkmystere * takes a breath*
[04:28] <J4ZZ> anybody? an idea? I'm streaming my sound from xbox through spdif to my 5.1 soundcard input....

[04:53] <Israphel> an selecting USB-HDD in the boot sequence
[04:55] <xenos> Israphel: i see. my laptop, which is where i'm isntalling kubuntu, has a card reader for the sd built in. i tried to see if it comes up a selectable option when i hit f12 (the key to select the peripheral to boot from)
[04:55] <xenos> but no luck.
[04:56] <Israphel> the setup menu in your laptop if by pressing F12
[04:56] <Israphel> ?
[04:57] <Israphel> is very strange, the new pcs and laptops can boot up from usb without problem
[04:57] <Israphel> the kubuntu you have, is 7.04 ?
[04:57] <Israphel> you can install it and make a dist-upgrade
[04:58] <Israphel> can you tell me the model of your laptop?
[04:58] <xenos> dell x1
[04:59] <PcMaX> spanish_
[04:59] <xenos> i have the 7.04 v. on the sd card. but the 6.0 v. on the cdrom. only problem with the cdrom, is that it crashes all the time when it comes to partitioning the drive. weird.
[05:00] <PcMaX> there is a command that reescan all disp in the kubuntu_
[05:00] <Israphel> i'm watching on google. That laptop HAS usb boot
[05:00] <Israphel> dell latitude x1 ?
[05:00] <xenos> Israphel: yeah
[05:00] <PcMaX> kubuntu dont detect mi nvidia
[05:00] <PcMaX> help!!!
[05:00] <Erickj92> is it possible to get kiba-dock to work?
[05:01] <ere4si> PcMaX, lspci
[05:01] <Israphel> i'm reading about the notebook
[05:01] <PcMaX> Thanks... I will try
[05:01] <Israphel> and it can boot from usb
[05:01] <ere4si> k
[05:01] <heinkel_111> PcMaX: have you installed the propprietary nvidia driver?
[05:01] <PcMaX> yes
[05:01] <Israphel> but it doesn't say that it can boot from the card reader
[05:02] <xenos> 0000:02:01.2 0805: Ricoh Co Ltd R5C822 SD/SDIO/MMC/MS/MSPro Host Adapter (rev 17)
[05:02] <xenos> i believe that's it
[05:02] <heinkel_111> lspcsi | grep nvidia
[05:02] <xenos> and when i do lsusb, it shows a "dell computer corp." but that's it
[05:02] <heinkel_111> PcMax ^
[05:02] <Israphel> but, not in the OS
[05:02] <Erickj92> can i get kiba-dock in kubuntu?
[05:02] <Israphel> in the BIOS SETUP
[05:02] <PcMaX> that was fine, whit compiz fine, but i have to restart and dont work anymore )sorry my english= XD
[05:02] <xenos> heinkel_111: no nvidia
[05:02] <Israphel> look for the boot sequence
[05:03] <Israphel> can you select
[05:03] <Israphel> USB-HDD or USB-ZIP
[05:03] <xenos> k, will try
[05:03] <Israphel> or
[05:03] <PcMaX> ok
[05:03] <Israphel> do you have a pendrive over there?
[05:03] <heinkel_111> PcMax: Habla espanol?
[05:03] <Israphel> heinkel_111: yo si
[05:03] <PcMaX> si
[05:03] <xenos> I had* a pendrive. so no, i don't.

[05:10] <Erickj92> can i install kiba-dock on kubuntu?
[05:11] <Israphel> AWN is better
[05:11] <Israphel> in my arrogant opinion
[05:11] <Erickj92> that is what im installing now
[05:11] <Erickj92> does it have all the effects?
[05:11] <Israphel> yes, it has nice effects
[05:11] <Israphel> but there's one problem
[05:12] <Israphel> awn is always at the bottom
[05:12] <Erickj92> i see
[05:12] <Erickj92> that could get to be a problem
[05:12] <Israphel> for the people who use kicker at the bottom, yes
[05:12] <Israphel> like me
[05:12] <Israphel> for that reason i don't use docks
[05:12] <Erickj92> is it hard to install kiba?
[05:12] <Erickj92> or, even possible
[05:12] <Israphel> i've never tried it
[05:13] <Israphel> just watched sshots
[05:14] <Erickj92> awn wont load...
[05:14] <Erickj92> hrmm
[05:14] <ere4si> !kiba-dock
[05:14] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about kiba-dock - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[05:14] <joh6nn> anyone have any idea what would cause screen to ignore colors in bash?
[05:14] <ere4si> !kibadock
[05:14] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about kibadock - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[05:15] <Erickj92> israphel, any ideas why awn wont load now?
[05:15] <Israphel> open it in Konsole and check the text
[05:16] <Erickj92> active_png isnt set
[05:17] <Erickj92> restarting AWN usually solves this issue
[05:21] <regeya> well, bud, if this was the official ubuntu channel, I'd say 'AWN isn't supported' or 'AWN is offtopic' or some worthless nonsense like that, but here's my question:  have you been using awn with kde all along, or are you just now trying it?
[05:21] <Erickj92> just trying it now
[05:21] <ibilic> I have no icons on my desktop and I cannot right click there... any ideas?
[05:22] <regeya> ah...well, if it's kde 3.x that doesn't have a compositor built in, and awn needs that.  you need to run either something like xcompmgr, or hit alt-f2 and run compiz --replace
[05:22] <Erickj92> i tihnk its kde4
[05:23] <regeya> also, search the forums for some hints on integrating awn into the kde desktop (though you'd be making changes that'd make it more difficult to run gnome)
[05:23] <Israphel> kde4? your menu bar is black?
[05:23] <regeya> oh..well...no idea...
[05:23]  * regeya hasn't tried awn with kde4 :-}
[05:23] <Israphel> is there another dock for kde?
[05:23]  * kiefer hasnt either :P
[05:23] <Erickj92> kooldock
[05:23] <Israphel> me neither
[05:23] <ibilic> i tried to uninstall kde4 and now when I log in with kde3, i don't see any icons on my desktop
[05:24] <Israphel> thats so
[05:24] <Israphel> strange
[05:25] <regeya> eh...I'm too fried for this.  just getting over being sick, and fighting with bacula on my wife's laptop.  just trying to do backups to an external hd, but I can't convince the system that the separate "volumes" don't have to be manually mounted :-}  google is not being my friend.  wish I'd kept notes when I had this set up at work...wait...holy moly, if I can ssh in to the work fileserver I still have those configuration
[05:25] <regeya> files.  w00t
[05:25]  * regeya brainfarts in teh channel
[05:25] <kiefer> Lul
[05:26] <ibilic> when I go to Dolphin and click on some of the icons on the left tab (e.g. Storage Media) it says that it's a Malformed URL
[05:27] <kiefer> I use Konq as my file browser, I suggest you do the same if no one can help you :)
[05:27] <regeya> 'no route to host'
[05:27] <regeya> cripes.../me waits for the call from his boss...
[05:27] <kiefer> regeya : arnt computers fun? :)
[05:27] <Israphel> mmm, dolphin is wrong configured
[05:28] <regeya> yeah kiefer; at least I know about it right now instead of having the jerks wait until I get to work for them to say 'hey, we've been without internet service since saturday'
[05:29] <vicno> hello
[05:29] <vicno> everybody
[05:29] <kiefer> regeya: Im a server admin for a small company, and the amount of calls i get about problems im already adressing is ridiculess lul
[05:29] <regeya> hehe
[05:29] <vicno> i installed ubuntu yestaday
[05:29]  * kiefer picks up the phone "IM WORKING ON IT NOW!"
[05:29] <vicno> and it's interesting
[05:30] <regeya> this place is so small everyone's within earshot, and I STILL have to answer the same question a dozen times
[05:30] <kiefer> Hahaha
[05:30] <kiefer> I like having my own office :P
[05:30] <vicno> is there any difference between freenode and #kubuntu
[05:31] <vicno> i want to know
[05:31] <Israphel> freenode is the server
[05:31] <Israphel> kubuntu is a channel
[05:31] <regeya> 'so is there a reason I can't go to our website?'  'yes, our internet service is out.'  'so...would there be a good reason for me to not be able to send email?'  'yep, the internet service is out.'  'okay...I'm not *getting* email.  what's going on?'  'no net service.'  'hey, I'm trying to upload stuff to the website via ftp, and it's not working.  how come?'  'I'll be gone for a couple of hours, ta-ta'
[05:32] <vicno> oh, i see
[05:32] <Israphel> xenos?
[05:32] <xenos> No luck!
[05:32] <Israphel> que paso
[05:32] <kiefer> regeya : Lmao.
[05:32] <Israphel> entraste al setup?
[05:32] <vicno> and i have never speak with others in irc, so this is the first time
 #kubuntu-es
[05:33] <vicno> and i'm from chian
[05:33] <xenos> Israphel: i'm going to have to try to install it the way i assumed i'd have to
[05:33] <vicno> china
[05:33] <Israphel> i'm now
[05:33] <xenos> Israphel: which is try to use the sd card via cdrom install
[05:33] <Israphel> xenos: is the easiest, but i like experimenting
 : Welcome :)
[05:33] <heinkel_111> welcome to "kubuntia", vicno
[05:34] <Israphel> just connect a ide cd-rom using a ide to usb adapter
[05:34] <vicno> i installed it from vmware workstation
[05:34] <vicno> and it's very easy
[05:34] <xenos> Israphel: where the heck do they sell those adapters?
[05:34] <e`DrAvEn> i want to access and stream my media from my kubuntu based desktop on my winxp laptop over my wireless network.  is there any simple way to do this?
[05:34] <crxyem> so, I'm compiling my first kernel, how long might this take ??
[05:35] <mixed> ok i think i just f*ed up "bootmisc.sh", I think I deleted the last line, can someone help me ??
[05:35] <crxyem> e'DrAvEn , what kind of media ??
[05:35] <e`DrAvEn> audio
[05:35] <crxyem> mp3's flac etc...
[05:36] <e`DrAvEn> yeah my good audio sys is in my living room but desktop is in another room
[05:36] <crxyem> share the directory with samba, and then use winamp of foorbar to play the music from that share
[05:36] <crxyem> or someother media player
[05:36] <mixed> http://pastebin.org/22037
[05:36] <e`DrAvEn> sweet i'll give it a shot thanks
[05:37] <xenos> Israphel: I have an idea but I'm not sure how to excute this: if i could find the "install" program on my sd card and somehow point that "install" to install from the sd card, this can work. Any idea?
[05:37] <mixed> can someone tell me if there is an "exit 0" line missing from my "bootmisc.sh" file?
[05:37] <Israphel> you cant install kubuntu when you are on kubuntu XD
[05:38] <Israphel> you can use Wubi, but you have to be in windows
[05:38] <e`DrAvEn> what samba pkgs do i need to install?
[05:38] <Israphel> sama common
[05:38] <Israphel> and deps
[05:38] <vicno> i installed the ubuntu
[05:40] <crxyem> I can't remember but samba common might be the only one
[05:41] <Israphel> yes
[05:41] <Israphel> an "samba" if you are in gnome
[05:41] <Israphel> to add shared folders
[05:41] <Israphel> in kde doesn't needed
[05:41] <Israphel> (and doesn't work)
[05:42] <Israphel> somethin more to fix?
[05:43] <crxyem> so how long can a kernel compile take ??
[05:43] <Israphel> a lot
[05:43] <Israphel> it depends
[05:43] <Israphel> how many patch you applied
[05:43] <Israphel> the speed of your CPU
[05:44] <crxyem> 1.4Ghz machine. full <IP_ADDRESS> kernel
[05:44] <Israphel> mmm, is enough, it wont be a lot of time
[05:44] <crxyem> sweet, just curious
[05:45] <crxyem> I started it a bit ago, figured it would be done by morning
[05:46] <crxyem> the only reason I needed to do this is because the current kernel in 7.10 is set for IDE max as 4, and I need at least 7
[05:46] <Israphel> the average is about 8 hours, but i depends, i've never being 8 hours using a athlon x2 4000+
[05:46] <Israphel> 7??!!! why?
[05:47] <crxyem> I have a highpoint ide card with 4 IDE devices, I have both Onboard IDE ports active with 2hd's and a cdrom
[05:48] <Israphel> omg
[05:48] <Israphel> nothing in my pc is ide
[05:48] <crxyem> 1.2TB worth of space between the 4 IDE drives on the Highpoint controller
[05:48] <Israphel> my dvd-rw is sata XD
[05:48] <crxyem> it's an older system
[05:49] <Israphel> don't you prefeer sata raid? :P
[05:49] <crxyem> if I had sata drives yeah
[05:50] <Israphel> jaja, well, everything can be re used
[05:50] <crxyem> but I came across some 500GB IDE drives , they were given to me , and I had all the other hardware
[05:50] <Israphel> is a good step
[05:50] <J4ZZ> ok lets try again, i have a problem with spdif passthrough. i have a 5.1 soundcard from c-media alsa installed an a xbox connected vie spdif. i just can't get the sound to get working. when i play with the settings in alsamixer and turn off IEC958 Output i get a scrambled signal. any ideas how to get it to work?
[05:55] <Israphel> you killed me
[06:00]  * xenos dead
[06:00] <ere4si> J4ZZ, if you have two sound cards one must be disabled - onboard sound must be disabled in the bios
[06:00] <Israphel> any new, xenos?
[06:00] <Israphel> pci integrated pheriperals
[06:00] <Israphel> or someting like that
[06:03] <e`DrAvEn> so my desktop is found under winxp but it asks 4 username and pass and won't allow me to access the computer
 J4ZZ, if you have two sound cards one must be disabled - onboard sound must be disabled in the bios
[06:05] <heinkel_111> <---not entirely true
[06:05] <jetpeach> when people use konqueror to access samba shared using smb://computername, are they able to use the "open with amarok" option and play mp3s? for me, when i try it, amarok tries to play the file but says it cannot find a suitable plugin. i have to download the file then play it
[06:05] <heinkel_111> you can set one of the souncard to always load as teh first one
[06:05] <heinkel_111> forgot how to, but my comp is configured like that
[06:05] <heinkel_111> i can use bopth soundcards at once
[06:06] <ere4si> heinkel_111, you're rare then :)
[06:08] <Israphel> you can set alsa to share
[06:09] <Israphel> i can't open lan files with amarok too, i only could using totem (!)
[06:10] <jetpeach> thx, good to know. i've asked about this once before in a kde channel i think and they say the feature is implemented (to stream files over samba), but on none of my computers does it work...
[06:10] <jetpeach> i'm curious to try a suse live cd and see if it works
[06:12] <Israphel> but if totem could
[06:12] <Israphel> amarok must can, someday
[06:13] <jetpeach> i agree, the kde developers said kde4 has a big rewrite of all the kioslave code i guess (the code that handles this type of streaming over samba)
[06:13] <crxyem> I use amarok over a lan
[06:13] <jetpeach> but kde4 is still so buggy for me that i can't even get it to boot... crxyem, did you have to configure anything specially to get it to work?
[06:13] <crxyem> i use mysql as the database
[06:14] <crxyem> nfs mount the share to the music directory
[06:14] <Israphel> can we use plasmoids con kde 3.5 ?
[06:16] <jetpeach> oh, yeah i  can get it to work if i smbfs mount using fuse the samba directories then click the files. so i guess this is a workaround that kinda works, i just always forget the problem mount commands and stuff...
[06:18] <Israphel> smbmount bla bla
[06:21] <e`DrAvEn> my music folder is setup for sharing with samba but when i try to access it on my laptop i get \\dell\music network path not found..  what gives?
[06:22] <jetpeach> try smb://dell.local and look there
[06:37] <triorieel> everytime I reboot I get a black screen. I have to stop kdm, install nvidia again, and start kdm to have things work again
[06:37] <triorieel> ^any ideas?
[06:38] <Israphel> thats so
[06:38] <Israphel> did you try
[06:38] <Israphel> sudo rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[06:38] <Israphel> it will re-gerate the xorg file
[06:39] <Israphel> re-generate *
[06:39] <triorieel> no, but I guess that could be why the nvidia driver reinstallation works.  but the question I guess is why does that file keep messin up?
[06:40] <Israphel> thats the strange point
[06:50] <J4ZZ> ok sry had a other problem meanwhile heinkel are u still there?
[06:50] <J4ZZ> ohh ok just saw that he is not ^^
[06:52] <foibles> what program can i use to burn avi files to dvd while transcoding at the same time, in one fell swoop?
[06:52] <foibles> much like nero does
[06:53] <J4ZZ> ok but since his solution did not change anything i just post my question again hopefully some new guys came online to help me ^^
[06:53] <J4ZZ> ok lets try again, i have a problem with spdif passthrough. i have a 5.1 soundcard from c-media alsa installed an a xbox connected vie spdif. i just can't get the sound to get working. when i play with the settings in alsamixer and turn off IEC958 Output i get a scrambled signal. any ideas how to get it to work?
[06:54] <Erickj92> so is there a good dock for kubuntu?
[06:54] <Dr_willis> i find the normal panel to be very good. :)
[06:56] <foibles> what program can i use to burn .avi movies to dvd
[06:57] <foibles> in dvd video format
[06:57] <Israphel> DeVeDe
[06:57] <Dr_willis> there are several tools to convert avi files to dvd video format. :)
[06:57] <Dr_willis> devede is very handy at that.
[06:57] <Dr_willis> You then use whatever you want to burn the .iso file it makes.
[06:59] <foibles> Dr_willis, what about something like nero?
[06:59] <foibles> where it transcodes and then burns all in one step
[06:59] <foibles> i have a scant hard drive
[06:59] <Dr_willis> theres nero linux - bit i  dpmt think it makes the video conervsions
[06:59] <foibles> sparing a 4.4 gig iso size isn't really something i can do
[06:59] <foibles> Dr_willis, there isn't, heh i checked
[07:00] <Dr_willis> some tools may convert on the fly.
[07:00] <Dr_willis> but i never do it that way
[07:01] <foibles> Dr_willis, i guess you do it the way you just described to me
[07:01] <Dr_willis> i have one pc making the .iso and i burn with the other pc. :)
[07:02] <foibles> sounds like you have a peculiar rig
[07:02] <Dr_willis> i got a fast burner on ne box and a fast cpu on the other. :)
[07:02] <foibles> ever thought about combining the two?
[07:02] <Dr_willis> Nope
[07:03] <Dr_willis> I rarely convert avi to dvd anyway
[07:03] <Dr_willis> I got my Mythtv Box and i got mo other machines. :)
[07:04] <triorieel> is kde for ubuntu conisdered highly unstable?
[07:04] <Dr_willis> hm I use kde  and gnome on the same ubuntu box. No problems
[07:05] <triorieel> none at all?
[07:05] <Dr_willis> Not that i can rember. I mixx and match gnome and kde apps on the same desktp also
[07:06] <triorieel> have you ever played with the compiz part of kde?
[07:06] <Israphel> kwin?
[07:06] <Dr_willis> compiz is its own whole set of probolems.
[07:06] <ere4si> that's why there is #compiz
[07:07] <Dr_willis> !compiz
[07:07] <ubotu> Kubuntu is not shipping with compiz installed or enabled by default. You can still install it and have your eyecandy goodness. The instructions are at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager/CompizFusion - further help in #compiz-fusion
[07:07] <triorieel> wow...Ive been getting lots of problems (althought some are prob compiz)
[07:07] <Dr_willis> I would  bet thtey are compiz related. :)
[07:07] <Dr_willis> which is why i dont use compiz exce[t to show off.
[07:09] <triorieel> well, I know not all of my problems are compiz related
[07:10] <triorieel> but I could see a few being related to compiz
[07:10] <Dr_willis> disable compiz and see..
[07:11] <triorieel> If some fo my probs are lreated to compiz...I guess that means compiz is more stable on gnome?
[07:11] <Israphel> kubuntu 8.04 will have compiz or kwin?
[07:11] <Dr_willis> i wouldent call compiz stable at all.
[07:12] <Dr_willis> KDE4 will not need compiz.
[07:12] <triorieel> ^tried running that earlier...that causes a complete crash before I get to see the desktop background
[07:12] <triorieel> KDE4 won't need compiz?
[07:13] <Dr_willis> kde4 will not need compiz as i said :)
[07:13] <triorieel> quick question as this may be aprt of my issue, how do I tell kde to stop loading what was loaded in previous session?
[07:13] <Dr_willis> they are going their own way  for the eye candy. :)
[07:14] <Dr_willis> i just use 'kwin --replace'
[07:14] <Israphel> i'm just asking if kubuntu 8.04 will have compiz or kwin by deffault
[07:14] <Dr_willis> compiz is not standard in kubuntu at all.
[07:14] <Israphel> not at all
[07:14] <Dr_willis> kde4 wont use be needing compiz.
[07:14] <Israphel> i want a Sidebar Plasmoid
[07:14] <triorieel> I don't mean that...when I load up kde..I have to kill alot of programs I was running in a previous session (ie konversation, ktorrent, etc...) otherwise they wont load for the new session
[07:15] <Israphel> someone is going to do it? or have i to do it bymyself
[07:15] <Dr_willis> Israphel,  kde4 is still very much a work in progress.
[07:16] <Israphel> for that reason
[07:16] <Israphel> i will wait
[07:16] <Israphel> to kde 4.1
[07:17] <Israphel> and if noone make a plasmoid sidebar
[07:17] <Israphel> i will do it
[07:17] <Israphel> cause i want one
[07:19] <SSJ_GZ> Israphel: You might want to send a mail to<EMAIL_ADDRESS>to let them know your intentions/ find out if anyone else is working on it.
[07:37] <J4ZZ> can anyone explain to me how to correct install the newest alsa drivers?

[07:41] <ubotu> If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ARTS is running, by going to K Menu -> System Settings -> Sound System and making sure "Enable the sound system" is checked. If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[07:41] <Dr_willis> i saw a how to/wiki page on it once J4ZZ  but havent messed with it in ages.
[07:41] <Dr_willis> Theres some factoid that points to the wiki pag.. but i cant rember its name either.

[08:51] <crackhead_25> i desperately need help getting my sound to work!!!
[08:51] <crackhead_25> i have an audigy ls. it was working fine the other day. now i dont know. i did a feisty to gutsy upgrade.
[08:57] <Dr_willis> I always have better luck doing clean installs then upgrades
[08:58] <crackhead_25> where do i get audigy ls drivers for linux?????????
[08:58] <Dr_willis> if they worked in the older ubuntu, then they are included .

[09:01] <ubotu> crackhead_25: The people here are volunteers, your attitude should reflect that. Answers are not always available. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[09:01] <Daisuke_Ido> the same people are here tonight that were here last night.  i really doubt any of us have had our bodies irradiated with gamma rays that made us super-smart and able to solve your problem.
[09:03] <micman> hello
[09:04] <weedar> Daisuke_Ido: Well, he could try trolling and maybe someone would become angry and turn into Kubuntu-Hulk?
[09:06] <Daisuke_Ido> unfortunately, it still wouldn't fix his audio :\
[09:11] <Dr_willis> I imagine a clean install  - instead of a upgrade would fix it.
[09:11] <Dr_willis> Daisuke_Ido,  check out my 'install the alsa drivers script' i wrote for my friend.. :) and yes it needs work.. but you may find it handy some time
[09:11] <Dr_willis> http://pastebin.ca/925317
[09:12] <Daisuke_Ido> oh, a clean install would be the preferable solution anyway
[09:13] <Daisuke_Ido> especially if there have ben a couple dist-upgrades in there
[09:13] <Dr_willis> it would bee a faster fix anyway
[09:17] <Daisuke_Ido> Dr_willis: looks good.  if i can follow it, it's pretty straightforward
[09:18] <Dr_willis> its only for one specific version however. :)
[09:18] <Dr_willis> not sure how to make it get 'the latest'
[09:19] <phix> fuck this
[09:19] <Dr_willis> porn is in another channel. :)
[09:21] <Daisuke_Ido> no idea how you'd check for the latest
[09:22] <Dr_willis> Unless the ftp server had a latest-version link. :) but then the  direcory names may bnot be the same when ya uncompress the archive
[09:23] <Daisuke_Ido> svn would be ideal for this
[09:23] <Dr_willis> Proberly doable also.. but I know very little about svn
[09:24] <Dr_willis> ive used it a few times. but thats it.
[09:38] <Plantain> Hey, I've got an ipw2200 wireless card, but I can't get it to work on startup without running a script I've written (just loads drivers, wpa_supplicant then dhclient), how can I automate this so it'll work automatically?
[09:40] <Dr_willis> look at /etc/rc.local is one place to put it
[09:41] <Plantain> I was hoping to get it to work through the knetmanager stuff?
[09:41] <Plantain> I'm not exactly sure what knetmanager does, does it use wpa_supplicant or what?
[09:41] <Dr_willis> no idea on that. I dont use wireelss
[09:42] <Dr_willis> If ya want somthing to run at boot. /etc/rc.local is a common place to run stuff like that.
[09:42] <Plantain> okay

[10:08] <Dr_willis> some times resizing/taking space from primary partitions and moveing it to extended partitions (or visa versa) can cause issues
[10:17] <phreak97> help?    :P
[10:17] <phreak97> adept wont let me install any messenger program
[10:18] <DarkestHour> what error does it give you?
[10:18] <DarkestHour> are you using adept manager?
[10:19] <phreak97> "There was an error commiting changes. Possibly there was a problem downloading some packages or the commit would break packages."
[10:19] <phreak97> i dont even make sense of that
[10:19] <phreak97> i've tried usig both the versions of adept that i can see
[10:19] <Dr_willis> i would do a  update, then upgrade, then try reinstalling the apps
[10:19] <Dr_willis> 'sudo apt-get update'
[10:19] <Dr_willis> 'sudo apt-get upgrade'
[10:19] <phreak97> ok, how?
[10:20] <Dr_willis>  is the CLI way
[10:20] <phreak97> i downloaded the latest iso like three days ago, this is a fresh install, none of it worked from the start
[10:20] <DarkestHour> iin adept manager, you can click full upgrade, then apply changes.
[10:20] <Dr_willis> phreak97,  yep.. If thers been updates - and youve never updated.. that can be why.
[10:20] <phreak97> kopete crashed every time i tried to connect so i uninstalled it, now i cant even click the check box to request installation
[10:20] <phreak97> how do i update?
[10:21] <phreak97> oh ok
[10:21] <uunbeatable>  ##Linux on Dalnet needs some good company and good channel operators. type /server -m irc.dal.net (or /connect irc.dal.net) and join ##Linux. Be there for some time. New channel…
[10:21] <phreak97> ok, lets hope this works
[10:22] <phreak97> i thought i updated before, but it turns out i didnt
[10:22] <phreak97> does someone want to help me install my video drivers aswel?
[10:22] <phreak97> im really new to linux
[10:23] <comp8> excuse me how can i connect my printer to linux
[10:23] <jani> computer crashed when i installed a language and now the language package is uncomplete. how do i remove a language so i can reinstall it?
[10:24] <comp8> how can i connect my printer to linux
[10:25] <comp8> pls someone give me an advice on wht to do
[10:25] <phreak97> is there ntfs write support that i can trust?
[10:25] <phreak97> comp8, i would but i have no idea
[10:25] <Dr_willis> comp8,  Plug it in?
[10:26] <Dr_willis> it saw and configured mine. :)
[10:26] <Dr_willis> phreak97,  ntfs-3g is very useable.
[10:27] <phreak97> whats the worst case scenario if something goes wrong with a write?
[10:27] <Dr_willis> Worst case = PC explodes  i guess..
[10:28] <phreak97> lmao
[10:28] <Dr_willis> what sort of answer are you even expecting?
[10:28] <phreak97> i basically want to know that it wont ruin the partition
[10:28] <Dr_willis> HD's can die at any time. If you want 100% reliablity - use lots of backups
[10:28] <phreak97> as the drive i have in mind has my whole lifes worth of crap on it
[10:28] <Dr_willis> You best be having some backups made then.
[10:28] <Dr_willis> perhaps 3x backups.
[10:28] <phreak97> yeah, i know i should
[10:28] <phreak97> lol
[10:29] <Dr_willis> Ive had new hd's die without notice.
[10:29] <phreak97> but i cant really afford a couple of 120gb hard drives
[10:29] <Dr_willis> ive also had linux + ntfs-3g recover data from window sdrives.. that wondows wouldent touch
[10:29] <Dr_willis> I dont even think they make them that small any more. :)
[10:29] <Dr_willis> I got a 300gb for $40 the other day
[10:31] <DarkestHour> yeah, i recently got a 500gb external from frys electronics.
[10:32] <phreak97> yeah more than i can afford
[10:32] <DarkestHour> oh, i forgot to say it was 100 bucks.
[10:32] <Dr_willis> decent sale :)
[10:32] <Dr_willis> ive grabbed sevefal 500's when i find them at frys
[10:33] <Dr_willis> that weekend the 300 was on sale for 40 - perfect for a external usb
[10:33] <DarkestHour> yeah. wish i would have seen that, would have probley gotten a couple.
[10:33] <Dr_willis> i wonder when 1TB will get down to 100.
[10:33] <Dr_willis> :) that will be nice
[10:33] <DarkestHour> the end of this year i bet
[10:34] <DarkestHour> the internals are already 250 bucks
[10:34] <phreak97> argh
[10:34] <phreak97> ok adept updated fine
[10:34] <phreak97> but pidgin wont install
[10:34] <DarkestHour> ok, in adept manager
[10:34] <phreak97> same error
[10:34] <DarkestHour> click view then show last dkpg run
[10:34] <DarkestHour> tell me what it errors out about.
[10:34] <Dr_willis> sudo apt-get install pidgin
[10:34] <DarkestHour> or that too, lol
[10:34] <Dr_willis> will also show errors.
[10:35] <phreak97> DarkestHour: no errors
[10:35] <DarkestHour> if you click the Menu button( the k in the bottom left) you can goto run command, then type in konsole and run it
[10:35] <DarkestHour> then follow Dr Willi's command
[10:36] <DarkestHour> it should give you an error
[10:36] <phreak97> sorry, try again.
[10:36] <phreak97> thats a specific error
[10:38] <DarkestHour> there's got to be an error, there's always an error.
[10:38] <DarkestHour> though, have you tried closed all open programs?
[10:38] <phreak97> my bad, i typoed my password
[10:38] <phreak97> E: Invalid operation pidgin
[10:38] <phreak97> wait
[10:38] <phreak97> argh
[10:39] <Dr_willis> cut/paste  is our friend
[10:39] <phreak97> E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable)
[10:39] <phreak97> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?
[10:39] <phreak97> thats what i got
[10:39] <Dr_willis> you did close out all the package manager programs?
[10:39] <Dr_willis> only one can run at a time.
[10:41] <phreak97> who should i paste the error to? its long
[10:41] <phreak97> i got a new one now i closed adept
[10:41] <comp8> dr willis how can i plug it in.
[10:42] <DarkestHour> you can message it to me
[10:42] <phreak97>  comp8 plug the cable from the back of the printer into your pc
[10:42] <Dr_willis> comp8,  Huh?  I normally take the usb cable from the printer and plug it into the usb port on the PC.....
[10:42]  * Dr_willis stares blankly.
[10:42] <comp8> dr wilis imagine i have done that and it doesnt work..
[10:42] <DarkestHour> what kind of printer is it?
[10:43] <DarkestHour> and i have to ask, i mean no offense by this, is it turned on?
[10:43] <comp8> hp d1300 deskjet.. it is not even recognized
[10:43] <phreak97> DarkestHour: antispam got me
[10:44] <comp8> and stil another problem i cant even share my computer through the net. what should i do
[10:44] <Dr_willis> comp8,  to have windows 'shares' one must enable them, or install samba.
[10:44] <Dr_willis> !samba
[10:44] <ubotu> Samba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT.
[10:44] <DarkestHour> well phreak, try searching in google real quick
[10:44] <phreak97> ugh... i am so sick of this
[10:45] <phreak97> if i cant install a freaking messenger, how the hell am i going to use this as an everyday os
[10:45] <comp8> let me try going to the site.
[10:45] <Dr_willis> sounds to me like you need to learn the basics of package manager phreak97
[10:45] <DarkestHour> wierd things happen phreak97
[10:45] <Dr_willis> phreak97,  only ONE of the apt tools can be running at one time.     if one crashes it can leave things in a confused state.
[10:46] <Dr_willis> If an APT front-end crashed and your database is locked, try this in a !terminal:   sudo fuser -vki /var/lib/dpkg/lock;sudo dpkg --configure -a
[10:47] <phreak97> i installed something else no probs
[10:48] <Dr_willis> could be the package/mirror/web site its downloading from has some issues in that case
[10:48] <phreak97> kopete AND   gaim/pidgin dont work
[10:48] <phreak97> whats another messenger i can try?
[10:48] <Dr_willis> try sudo apt-get install cowsay
[10:48] <DarkestHour> phreak, if you have another messenger on another machine, you can send me the error that way
[10:49] <phreak97> couldnt find package
[10:49] <phreak97> i dont
[10:49] <Dr_willis> !info cowsay
[10:49] <ubotu> cowsay (source: cowsay): A configurable talking cow. In component universe, is optional. Version 3.03-8 (gutsy), package size 17 kB, installed size 268 kB
[10:49] <phreak97> my windows install died and i dont have a disc
[10:49] <Dr_willis> sounds to me like you may not have the unuvers and other repositories installed.
[10:49] <Dr_willis> enabled.
[10:49] <Dr_willis> !info pidgin

[10:49] <Dr_willis> Pidgin is in main... Hmmm.
[10:50] <DarkestHour> ahh, you could  be right.
[10:50] <DarkestHour> i can tell him how to enable them in adept manager
[10:50] <Dr_willis> sudo apt-get install pidgin         gives what sort of error?
[10:50] <phreak97> Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
[10:50] <phreak97> requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
[10:50] <phreak97> distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
[10:50] <phreak97> or been moved out of Incoming.
[10:51] <DarkestHour> yeah, thats got to be the problem then.
[10:51] <phreak97> it says theres uninstallable dependancies
[10:51] <phreak97> theres more error than that but i dont want to paste so much here
[10:51] <Dr_willis> wouldent hurt to enable the other repos i guess.
[10:51] <phreak97> ok so how do i fix it
[10:51] <phreak97> i thought i did
[10:52] <phreak97> how anyway
[10:52] <Dr_willis>  if universe was enabled.. you could of installed cowsay
[10:52] <DarkestHour> in adept manager goto adept then manage repositories
[10:52] <Dr_willis> Listen to DarkestHour  :)
[10:52] <DarkestHour> check all 4 boxs in kubuntu software.
[10:52] <DarkestHour> close that, then click fetch updates in adept manager
[10:53] <DarkestHour> Dr_willis: i like adept manager. easy searching since i'm always messing with crap.
[10:53] <phreak97> yeah, i did that before
[10:53] <phreak97> maybe i didnt fetch update
[10:53] <phreak97> s
[10:53] <DarkestHour> that would be why.
[10:53] <phreak97> brb
[10:55] <Dr_willis> i tend to install and use synaptic
[10:55] <Dr_willis> update, upgrade, install :)
[10:56] <DarkestHour> yeah i been getting a lot of reccomendations to use it, i'm gonna check it it soon
[10:56] <Dr_willis> Pidgin, the popular IM client once known as GAIM, has flown out of the coop today with a new release. Pidgin 2.4.0 is the first update in about three months,
[10:57] <Dr_willis> http://www.pidgin.im/
[10:57] <Dr_willis> !info pidgin
[10:57] <ubotu> pidgin (source: pidgin): graphical multi-protocol instant messaging client for X. In component main, is optional. Version 1:2.2.1-1ubuntu4.1 (gutsy), package size 589 kB, installed size 1720 kB
[10:57] <comp8> in my systems setting>sharing>file sharing ... after clicking administrator mode and typing my password the "enable or Disable" tab is still in active
[10:57] <Dr_willis> EGADS what an old version in the repos.
[10:57] <comp8> please help!!!
[10:58] <DarkestHour> comp8: in a terminal run sudo apt-get install samba
[10:58] <Dr_willis> comp8,   You may want to 'sudo apt-get install samba'  :) its supposed to sort of auto-do that.. but it may not be the case.
[10:59] <comp8> i tried that before but it didn't work...."darkest hour"
[10:59] <comp8> it still inactive .. i can't share or creat a workgrop..
[10:59] <phreak97> holy crap
[10:59] <Dr_willis> i always just manually edit the samba config files.  :) im old-skool
[10:59] <phreak97> i think its installing
[11:00] <DarkestHour> give it a reboot comp8, just in case.
[11:01] <comp8> ok let me try that... i'll back . thanks darkest hour..
[11:02] <Dr_willis> I think comp8  needx to learn about TAB completion
[11:02] <Dr_willis> !tab | comp8
[11:02] <ubotu> comp8: You can use <tab> for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line.
[11:03] <DarkestHour> you love that bot dont you Dr_willis?
[11:03] <Dr_willis> !love
[11:03] <ubotu> Love is like racing across the frozen tundra on a snowmobile which flips over, trapping you underneath. At night, the ice-weasels come.
[11:03] <DarkestHour> lol
[11:03] <francesco> Ciao a tutti
[11:04] <phreak97> grrrr:'(
[11:04] <phreak97> its installed fine
[11:04] <francesco> qlc mi potrebbe dare un mano? la mia kubuntu non mi automonta le periferiche usb
[11:04] <phreak97> but it just tells me my msn password is wrong
[11:05] <Dr_willis> MSN and other im systems often break things and force people to use newer versions of Pidgin
[11:05] <Dr_willis> which then fixes the changes.. but then it starts all over again.
[11:05] <Dr_willis> :)
[11:05] <phreak97> i just installed it
[11:05] <phreak97> just then
[11:05] <Dr_willis> You just installed a VERY old version
[11:05] <phreak97> ...
[11:05] <Dr_willis> ubuntu only updates every 6 mo.
[11:05] <Dr_willis> thats how ubuntu works.
[11:05] <phreak97> how do i update it
 EGADS what an old version in the repos.
[11:06] <Dr_willis> Use the source is one way...
[11:06] <Dr_willis> there may be other easier ways.
[11:07] <phreak97> im going to die
[11:07] <Dr_willis> try some other msn clients.
[11:07] <Dr_willis> could be msn is actingup today.
[11:07] <Dr_willis> I dont use msn, so cant test it
[11:08] <phreak97> how do i use the source? i seem to remember it was pretty easy when i had ubuntu last year
[11:08] <Dr_willis> get source , install build-essential and other needed packages.. compile it.
[11:08] <phreak97> i've used ubuntu before.. when breezy was current
[11:08] <Dr_willis> heck. go get the windows version and run it in wine. :)
[11:08] <Dr_willis> heh
[11:08] <phreak97> but i dont remember anything
[11:09] <phreak97> ugh
[11:09] <phreak97> ill just try kopete again
[11:10] <phreak97> i dont see that pidgin should lose msn support.. i use trillian in windows and that hasnt had an update in three years
[11:11] <Dr_willis> could be msn is goofy today
[11:11] <Dr_willis> or you are doing somthing wrong.
[11:12] <DarkestHour> it could be you need to input you whole msn address or vice versa?
[11:12] <DarkestHour> i dont use msn either so i cant be sure of it,
[11:12] <phreak97> you always have to input the whole address
[11:13] <phreak97> msn supports non-hotmail addresses
[11:14] <phreak97> neither kopete not pidgin can connect to msn
[11:14] <phreak97> kopete crashes completely and pidgin tells me my password is wrong
[11:14] <Dr_willis> !im
[11:14] <ubotu> Instant Messenger Client Kopete (http://kopete.kde.org) is supporting MSN, Jabber, AIM, Gadu-Gadu, Novell Groupwise, ICQ and IRC. See also !gaim
[11:14] <Dr_willis> I dont use either... lets see
[11:15] <tdn> Does anyone have the time to help me set up vsftpd with virtual users?
[11:15] <tdn> I am trying to make virtual users work with vsftpd and pam, but for some reason, my db with the virtual users is ignored. Local system users *are* allowed login, but the virtual users are not. My /etc/vsftpd.conf is here : http://thomasdamgaard.dk/paste/P1077.html, I /etc/pam.d/ftp a symbolic link to /etc/vsftpd.pam, which can be seen here: http://thomasdamgaard.dk/paste/P1078.html.
[11:15] <Dr_willis> it connected here to MSN for me. :)
[11:16] <DarkestHour> hey phreak97, Try using the HTTP method (Accounts -> msn account -> Edit Account -> Advanced -> "Use HTTP Method")
[11:16] <DarkestHour> thats in pidgin
[11:16] <ops1234509> is there a easy way to make konqueror understand magnet links?
[11:18] <mitchells00> ok here's a good one for you... i installed kubuntu on my laptop, and i can't get the S-Video port to work.. at all... the chipset is an intel 82852/82855 :P
[11:22] <Dr_willis> thers some tv out tools in the repos..but it may depend onyour chipset. Some times tv out is not well supported on some
[11:23] <vicno> have you guys all installed ubuntu
[11:23] <weedar>  zb
[11:23] <Dr_willis> several times.
[11:23] <Dr_willis> :)
[11:23] <DarkestHour> too many to count.
[11:23] <weedar> nah vicno, we're mostly posers and bots
[11:23] <Dr_willis> and kubuntu, and xubuntu, and geubuntu, and...other variants
[11:23]  * Dr_willis strikes a pose
[11:23] <mitchells00> this'll be like my... 12th time.. in the past 3 months..
[11:24] <mitchells00> i seem to have a nack for breaking them beyond repair..
[11:26] <DarkestHour> most of my knack for breaking comes with anything to do with x.org configuring.
[11:26] <mitchells00> xorg.conf?
[11:26] <mitchells00> that's how i broke it 15 mins ago :P
[11:26] <Dr_willis> this is why one keeps backups...
[11:26] <Dr_willis> :)
[11:27] <mitchells00> bah i can't be bothered..
[11:27] <mitchells00> xD
[11:28] <DarkestHour> i've given up on s-video configuring btw mitchells00, i just bought a tv with vga ports.
[11:28] <DarkestHour> so i'm afraid i cant be much help here.
[11:29] <mitchells00> i'm thinking vga-svidio converter..
[11:29] <mitchells00> i think there's a few on ebay...
[11:29] <mitchells00> <3 ebay
[11:29] <mitchells00> xD
[11:30] <mitchells00> i don't really have the money to buy a new tv...
[11:31] <DarkestHour> the thing with s-video on laptops(mine is especially crappy), is it ONLY works with an svideo to svideo connection, no convertors at all can be used.
[11:31] <mitchells00> O.o
[11:31] <comp8> i have tried to install
[11:31] <mitchells00> not really
[11:32] <mitchells00> mine came with a cable that goes to the yellow plug
[11:32] <DarkestHour> well, simple convertors i should say
[11:32] <mitchells00> :P
[11:32] <mitchells00> i don't want anything better than that..
[11:32] <DarkestHour> whats the model of your laptop?
[11:32] <mitchells00> an ACER tavelmate 530
[11:32] <mitchells00> only old
[11:33] <mitchells00> omg.. svidia..
[11:34] <comp8> thanks i have installed samba and on clicking the administrator mode it active.. how should go about it coz i want to share 8 computers.
[11:35] <DarkestHour> comp8: try this page http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=363886
[11:38] <Dr_willis> You want to configure 8 different machines to have samba shares?
[11:38] <Dr_willis> It may be worth wile to learn some samba info. and edit the samba configs manually. depending on your needs.
[11:39] <DarkestHour> mitchells00: see if any of this helps you http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=411674
[11:40] <mitchells00> ooh thanks..

[11:42] <mitchells00> i tryed that..
[11:42] <mitchells00> *tried
[11:42] <amit> jpatrick: i don't wanna compile anjuta..i am using anjuta as an IDE to compile a simple c program
[11:43] <jussi01> amit: I assume you have build-essential installed?
[11:43] <amit> jpatrick: what i wanna ask is how do i build ? there's no build option in the build menu... only compile and execute
[11:43] <amit> jussi01: yes, i have.. thats why i was wondering.. is it a bug or some?

[11:44] <amit> jussi01: huh?
[11:44] <DarkestHour> it's worth a shot!
[11:44] <llutz> mitchells00: crt != tv
[11:45] <amit> jussi01: compile works fine...but it doesn't create an executable... tried via command line ..works fine
[11:45] <jussi01> amit: what does it create?
[11:46] <rewati> my sound is not workin can somebody help me
[11:46] <jpatrick> !sound | rewati
[11:46] <ubotu> rewati: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ARTS is running, by going to K Menu -> System Settings -> Sound System and making sure "Enable the sound system" is checked.

[11:47] <amit> jussi01: but it doesn't do it... you see.. i don't have a 'build' option.. all i have is 'compile' which only creates an object file

[12:11] <profoX`> is using w32codecs and/or libdvdcss legal in belgium/the netherlands ?
[12:13] <mitchells00> this is a completely honest question.. do you really care?
[12:13] <mitchells00> if you do.. get VLC player
[12:13] <mitchells00> it reads dvd's without codecs i'm pretty sure :P
[12:13] <mitchells00> and all regions too!
[12:14] <mitchells00> :)
[12:14] <llutz> mitchells00: so it's illegal to be used in many countries too ;)
[12:14] <mitchells00> then most cheap no brand dvd players sold in alot of shops are illegal too?
[12:15] <llutz> don't know about hardware, software needs paying to the media-content-mafia (for css) to be legal, at least in germany
[12:16] <mitchells00> i don't know about over there, but here modchips etc are legal as long as they allow you to play games/watch movies from other regions...
[12:16] <mitchells00> aww in linux you still need libdvdcss..
[12:17] <llutz> ^^ and that's illegal here as they call it copy-protection (but it IS playing-protection)
[12:18] <llutz> here's only linDVD as a legal dvd-player
[12:19] <mitchells00> it's deemed legal because here restricting someone from viewing/playing it when there is no version in this region is seen as censorship
[12:19] <llutz> ^wise
[12:19] <mitchells00> using it to pirate yes is illegal but if you legitimately bought the other region dvd then you should be able to view it
[12:20] <llutz> i don't know the situtation with regions here, but all those problems with css :(
[12:20] <mitchells00> for instance, my sister bought a few dvd's from amazon.com, because they didn't have those seasons out here yet, and she had to watch them with VLC
[12:22] <mitchells00> again it all comes down to the question, do you really think that the authorities are going to care if you, personally, use libdvdcss if it's the only method of viewing a dvd on your computer?
[12:24] <Lynoure> mitchells00: even distributing it for watching your own legimately bought dvds is illegal in some countries, unfortunately. (Luckily no longer here in Finland)
[12:24] <mitchells00> Here using profanities over a landline or mobile phone is illegal...
[12:24] <mitchells00> you think people really care?

[12:26] <Sam1337> Can I create a ~/ partition or does it have to be a /home partition?
[12:30] <comp8> its me again. have shared my computers and cant seem to do anything coz am trying to put my password and my username  but all in vain
[12:30] <Tm_T> root__: hi
[12:30] <Tm_T> root______: hi
[12:31] <Sam1337> hi
[12:31] <jussi01> comp8: whats happening? is it not letting you put in a password?
[12:31] <khaije1> does grub support booting into lvm2 volumes?
[12:31] <Tm_T> Sam1337: you can "create" /home/myuser/ partition
[12:32] <jussi01> comp8: if so, it is inputing the password, it just doesnt actually show it.
[12:32] <comp8> imagine what should i do.
[12:32] <Sam1337> Tm_T: So my /home can be in one partition and my /home/sam as the root directory of another partition without any problems?
[12:33] <comp8> ican acces my other computers thro' local host but cant seem to go in.
[12:33] <mitchells00> localhost = you..
[12:33] <comp8> yep
[12:34] <mitchells00> you're trying to access the shared folders on the computer that you're using?
[12:34] <mitchells00> have you tried from another computer?
[12:40] <Dice> Can someone help me?

[12:57] <ForgeAus> isn't there an au.ubuntu.org?
[12:58] <mitchells00> then go and ask them if they can reinstall XP using your serial number,
[12:58] <mitchells00> where are you located?
[12:58] <mitchells00> sydney?
[12:58] <ForgeAus> closer to Melbourne actually
[12:58] <mitchells00> i know a fast sydney mirror ^^
[12:58] <rami> i'l just download a cd off the internet and then run in VirtualBox, simple as that, and i'm located in sweden
[12:58] <mitchells00> hmm..
[12:58] <ForgeAus> (Geelong to be more precise)
[12:58] <mitchells00> oh hi ^^
[12:58] <ForgeAus> hehhe :)
[12:58] <mitchells00> hmm.. sydney should be fine really
[12:58] <Antkin> Hello
[12:59] <ForgeAus> I'm not so concerned about speed
[12:59] <mitchells00> i don't know the specific path but ftp://pacific.net.au has always been fast for me :)
[12:59] <ForgeAus> its more connectivity that matters
[12:59] <ForgeAus> ahh ok thanx :)
[12:59] <rami> and the computer is not in stock anymore,
[12:59] <ForgeAus> I'll try that one
[12:59] <rami> its obsolete
[12:59] <rami> so i'll just Download
[13:00] <ForgeAus> michells00 so do I just use deb ftp://pacific.net.au gutsy main restricted in sources.list?
[13:00] <mitchells00> no you would have to point to a more specific directory i think
[13:00] <Antkin> Kubuntu 7.10 user since Nov 2007
[13:02] <Antkin> Linux user since 1999
[13:03] <mitchells00> rami.. if you want.. it's technically legal if you install with your serial..
[13:03] <mitchells00> :P
[13:04] <Antkin> mitchells00 Hello
[13:04] <mitchells00> ForgeAus:
[13:04] <mitchells00> ftp://ftp.iinet.net.au/pub/ubuntu/dists/ look in there with a browser and choose your distro
[13:04] <mitchells00> i think that would do it
[13:05] <ere4si> ForgeAus, your choice really - http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/downloadmirrors
[13:05] <ForgeAus> kubuntu gutsy
[13:06] <mitchells00> ftp://ftp.iinet.net.au/pub/ubuntu/dists/gutsy-updates/ << try that
[13:06] <mitchells00> ?
[13:06] <mitchells00> xD
[13:07] <Antkin> ForgeAus I have used kubuntu gutsy since Oct 2007 without any major problems
[13:07] <ForgeAus> hehe Antkin its ok I don't need you to tell me that
[13:08] <ForgeAus> I have andLinux and the mirror us.ubuntu.org or whatever it was, wasn't working
[13:08] <ForgeAus> all I needed was a replacement
[13:08] <ForgeAus> for my sources.list file
[13:08] <vicno> and i used kde under the ubuntu OS
[13:09] <Antkin> ForgeAus thanks for that I hope your not offended, this is only my second day on IRC
[13:09] <ForgeAus> offended no, I just didn't see the point in you saying it
[13:09] <vicno> but i don't like the k theme
[13:09] <mitchells00> i broke X.org agian...
[13:09] <mitchells00> -_-;;;
[13:10] <ForgeAus> happens whats wrong with it mitchell
[13:10] <ForgeAus> what error do you get?
[13:10] <mitchells00> oh no i was playing with it :P
[13:10] <mitchells00> i have a backup :P
[13:10] <mitchells00> hehehe
[13:10] <ForgeAus> kewl
[13:10] <Antkin> ForgeAus just keen to chat with somebody
[13:11] <mitchells00> well say hello!
[13:11] <Antkin> I did say Hello
[13:11] <vicno> 大家好
[13:11] <mitchells00> da ja hao~
[13:12] <vicno> mitchells00:so you can speak chinese
[13:12] <mitchells00> a bit of ???
[13:12] <Antkin> hello!
[13:12] <mitchells00> omg no utf8 hold on
[13:12] <ForgeAus> :)
[13:12] <ForgeAus> whats utf8? it sounds familiar
[13:13] <mitchells00> a bit of 廣東話
[13:13] <mitchells00> :)
[13:13] <jussi01> !locales | ForgeAus
[13:13] <ubotu> ForgeAus: To set up and configure your locales, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LocaleConf
[13:13] <ForgeAus> erm those characters are quite exotic
[13:13] <vicno> are you chinese?
[13:13] <mitchells00> no :P
[13:13] <ForgeAus> jussi its not reigonal settings (like timezones and stuff)
[13:13] <ForgeAus> its the download sources
[13:14] <mitchells00> no he's talking about utf8
[13:14] <mitchells00> xD
[13:14] <mitchells00> reigonal settings
[13:14] <ForgeAus> oh utf8 is reigonal settings?
[13:14] <vicno> oh, i see
[13:14] <ForgeAus> IC
[13:14]  * ForgeAus shrugs
[13:14] <mitchells00> i just have alot of 國人 friends :P
[13:15] <mitchells00> and i got bored one day :P
[13:15] <ForgeAus> lol isn't there an #ubuntu-<countrycode> for that?
[13:15] <Antkin> I want to remove Ubuntu from 4 computers and install Kubuntu
[13:15] <ForgeAus> or better yet #kubuntu-<country code>
[13:15] <ForgeAus> Antkin the easiest way is to install kubuntu-dekstop
[13:15] <mitchells00> ant... just install kde over the top of them?
[13:15] <ForgeAus> with apt-get
[13:16] <ForgeAus> (and check out the ubuntu website for what gnome packages are safe to remove)
[13:16] <mitchells00> i think i would actually prefer to have both gnome and kde packages installed..
[13:16] <mitchells00> more variety?
[13:16] <ForgeAus> mitchells each to their own, I wouldn't
[13:16] <ForgeAus> not anymore
[13:16] <mitchells00> sudo apt-get install kde << i think.. correct me if i'm wrong :P
[13:17] <ForgeAus> GTK+ is the most of Gnome I ever want to see
[13:17] <mitchells00> hehehehe
[13:17] <mitchells00> i don't like gnome that much either..
[13:17] <mitchells00> i like KDE4 thouhg..
[13:17] <mitchells00> *gh
[13:17] <Antkin> ForgeAus I have KDE on my 4 ubuntu computers my other one is a dual boot with Kubutu 7.10 and Windows XP
[13:17] <jussi01> mitchells00: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[13:17] <ForgeAus> but I think I will be forced to use Gnome stuff eventually
[13:17] <vicno> oh, that's really helpful
[13:17] <mitchells00> ForgeAus: NO! you must resist!
[13:18] <ForgeAus> mitchell not on my own pc
[13:18] <vicno> i like gnome
[13:18] <ForgeAus> on others
[13:18] <mitchells00> those evil little gnomes are going to steal your underpants!
[13:18] <ForgeAus> rofl
[13:18] <mitchells00> hehe
[13:18] <ForgeAus> thats ok I like freeballing! rofl
[13:18] <ForgeAus> too much information?
[13:18] <mitchells00> (yes that is a southpark rip-off but it seemed so appropriate in this situation)
[13:18] <mitchells00> xD
[13:19] <Antkin> I prefer KDE 3.5 insted of Gnome
[13:19] <ForgeAus> I don't watch southpark
[13:19] <jussi01> !ot
[13:19] <ubotu> #kubuntu is the official Kubuntu support channel, for all Kubuntu-related support questions. Please use #kubuntu-offtopic for general chatter. Thanks!
[13:19] <mitchells00> i do occasionally
[13:19] <ForgeAus> I like KDE3.5.x too
[13:19] <mitchells00> ya i like it.. but i think KDE4 is sexy.. :P
[13:19] <ForgeAus> jussi relax I'm here to help!..
[13:19] <ForgeAus> I think KDE4 hasn't come into its own yet
[13:20] <mitchells00> yeah
[13:20] <mitchells00> but it's still sexy..
[13:20] <vicno> gnome is simple, clear. and i think kde is a little nobby.
[13:20] <jussi01> ForgeAus: great. but please keep this channel free for help.
[13:20] <Antkin> I have used KDE since my Mandriva days so thats nearly 4 years
[13:20] <mitchells00> vicno: gnome isn't nearly as customizable as it should be
[13:20] <ForgeAus> vicno gnome may be simple but it achieves that by too many tools that do too little
[13:20] <mitchells00> and linus says gnome = fail '.' gnome = fail..
[13:21] <ForgeAus> I truly agree and believe linux is right
[13:21] <mitchells00> heh..
[13:21] <ForgeAus> that gnome will fail
[13:21] <ForgeAus> in the long run
[13:21] <vicno> but i just like it :P
[13:21] <mitchells00> *linux
[13:21] <mitchells00> *linus?
[13:21] <ForgeAus> unless they change thier basic paradigm
[13:21] <jussi01> Please Take the offtopic chatter to #kubuntu-offtopic!
[13:21] <ForgeAus> no linux != linus, but he did make it
[13:21] <vicno> linus is the farther of linux, right
 I truly agree and believe linux is right << didn't you mean linus?
[13:21] <ForgeAus> jussi this isn't offtopic
[13:22] <mitchells00> and it's not chatter..
[13:22] <mitchells00> it's a debate :)
[13:22] <Dorwin6> !search compiz
[13:22] <ubotu> Found: xgl, keys-#ubuntu-effects, sources.list-#ubuntu-effects, transset-#ubuntu-effects, cf, compiz, backspace-error-#ubuntu-effects, shift-backspace-#ubuntu-effects, plugins-#ubuntu-effects, beryl
[13:22] <jussi01> ForgeAus: this is offtopic. The topic is Kubuntu Spport. Kubuntu support != Linux/KDE chatter/debate
[13:23] <Antkin> I think Linus is right Gnome will fail in the long run
[13:23] <mitchells00> Antkin: bingo :D
[13:23] <mitchells00> ok ssh
[13:23] <mitchells00> or jussi will hurt us
[13:23] <mitchells00> with whips...
[13:23] <Dorwin6> hi jussi01, i finally got ATI driver works. Can you tell me the link to setup compriz
[13:23] <mitchells00> >.>;;;;;
[13:23] <jussi01> !compiz > Dorwin6
[13:24] <Dorwin6> thank you jussi01
[13:24] <jussi01> :)
[13:24] <Antkin> mitchells00 thanks for bingo
[13:25] <mitchells00> i've never heard someone thank someone else for a bingo before..
[13:25] <ForgeAus> dorwin try apt-get install compiz-fusion ???
[13:25] <mitchells00> WELL you see something new everyday!
[13:25] <ForgeAus> mitchell its ignoring my sources.list lines the only one that works is security.ubuntu.org
[13:26] <ForgeAus> for some reason
[13:26] <ForgeAus> thats wierd
[13:26] <mitchells00> ohh is that that weird beryl thing?
[13:26] <ForgeAus> do I need a gpg key?
[13:26] <mitchells00> no idea..
[13:26] <ForgeAus> beryl got reintegrated into Compiz-Fusion
[13:26] <mitchells00> i just googled your question...
[13:26] <mitchells00> ya i know
[13:26] <gysel> à l'install de cd live kubuntu ça s'arrête sur une ligne ubuntu@ubuntu:$ qu'est ce que je dois mettre là?
[13:26] <ForgeAus> (originally beryl was a fork of compiz)
[13:26] <Antkin> I read the comments by Linus Gnove v KDE in a computer mag two years ago
[13:27] <mitchells00> so it's that pretty useless desktop effects thing that slows down your computer and doesn't really look that great to begin with unless you have been tweaking it for 72 hours straight?
[13:27] <ere4si> ForgeAus, done sudo apt-get update?
[13:27] <mitchells00> ohh i didn't think of that..
[13:27] <mitchells00> i do that automatically
[13:28] <vicno> sudo -i
[13:28] <mitchells00> ohohh 12:30 whoops
[13:28] <mitchells00> gotta get up for school tomorrow :O!
[13:28] <vicno> it's just 21:28
[13:28] <ForgeAus> ahh yes update I forgot that
[13:28] <mitchells00> in 中國 maybe.. xD
[13:29] <Dorwin6> have anyone come across into this issue? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/58095/
[13:30] <Antkin> Can anyone please help? 	I want to remove Ubuntu from 4 computers and install Kubuntu
[13:30] <ForgeAus> Antkin I already did, you don't need to remove ubuntu
[13:30] <Dorwin6> thanks forgeaus
[13:30] <ForgeAus> just sudo apt-get kubuntu-desktop on them
[13:30] <mitchells00> in 悉尼 澳洲 it's 00:32
[13:31] <ForgeAus> (and check ubuntu's wiki to find out which gnome packages are safe to remove)
[13:31] <vicno> for(int i=0;i<4;i++) sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[13:31] <vicno> :p
[13:31] <sh4rm4> whats wrong with ktorrent if it shows "stalled" on a torrent, but doesnt download d?
[13:31] <ForgeAus> lol vicno :)
[13:31] <ere4si> southerners - sheesh - quit changing your clocks an hour...
[13:31] <Antkin> ForgeAus I am very cross with Ubuntu they have banned me from their forums two weeks ago.
[13:31] <mitchells00> what for?
[13:31] <jussi01> Antkin: do what ForgeAus said, then follow !purekde
[13:31] <vicno> just kidding!
[13:32] <ForgeAus> antkin the underlying operating system is exactly the same other than the KDE desktop (instead of Ubuntu's Gnome) and a few other packages,
[13:33] <Antkin> I made some posts with a URL at the bottom and have been accused as a spammer. I did not mean to offend. I won't use a URL again on their forum
[13:33] <ForgeAus> !purekde > Antkin
[13:33] <Antkin> Yes I know that
[13:33] <ForgeAus> yes you do have to be careful about urls
[13:33] <ForgeAus> where you put them and why is what matters
[13:34] <Antkin> I have no problems with Kubuntu forums have posted over 40 times
[13:36] <Antkin> jussi01 what is !purekde
[13:36] <ronny__> Hi, did anybody notice that updating a fresh installation of Kubuntu-7.10 CRASHES at the libqt3-mt package? What a nice first impression! :-P
[13:37] <mitchells00> maybe only for you?
[13:37] <mitchells00> ack what am i doing still talking
[13:37] <mitchells00> i need ot go to bed
[13:37] <mitchells00> bubaii everyone :D
[13:38] <ForgeAus> ronny?
[13:39] <ronny__> ForgeAus: yes?
[13:39] <ForgeAus> it crashes?
[13:40] <ForgeAus> have you tried it on a different machine? if so have you checked your install media for errors?
[13:40] <ForgeAus> it may not actually be a problem with kubuntu-7.10
[13:41] <ronny__> I just retried in VirtualBox. Well, the update process "crashes", i.e. halts with an error message.
[13:41] <ForgeAus> on the same machine? could it be a hardware issue?
[13:41] <ForgeAus> or ram? or something?
[13:42] <ronny__> Nope. Tried on several different real machines and even in VirtualBox with an ISO where I checked the MD5 sum...
[13:42] <ForgeAus> ok well then I guess you should report it as a bug ?
[13:43] <Antkin> I have written a guide aimed at the newbie about dual booting Windows and Linux and all because I put a URL at the bottom I have been banned on Ubuntu forums as a spammer, why did they not ask me to remove the URL in the first place that would have been so simple to do.
[13:44] <meloncitabeba> Hola a todos
[13:44] <ronny__> Looks like it was reported long time ago here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/183241 but status is still undecided.
[13:44] <ere4si> Antkin, that's a bit offtopic
[13:45] <ForgeAus> ronny then whats to say?...
[13:45] <Antkin> OK should I leave because that is the only thing I have an issue with? Were should I post?
[13:46] <cew27_> hello i need help, my multiple desktops in kde have messed up i have twice as many as i set
[13:46] <ronny__> ForgeAus: I think this bug is catastrophic (from a new Linux user's experience viewpoint) and should get much higher priority
[13:46] <ere4si> Antkin, #ubuntu-offtopic
[13:47] <ForgeAus> ronny I'm not in charge of the people who develop or bugtest kubuntu, and if the bug is reported already then I guess thats their job to deal with, hopefully it will be handled for the next issue
[13:47] <ForgeAus> that being said I do agree that its not very friendly a thing to happen
[13:48] <Cew27> hello all i need help
[13:48] <ronny__> I did hope to find someone here who takes care about the packages because it looks like Canonical does not really care and maybe the bug and its severity just did not get noticed by the developers/maintainers.
[13:48] <ere4si> ronny__, that is prob upstream from canonical so they are limited
[13:49] <ForgeAus> ronny in #ubuntu-dev you might have more luck
[13:49] <ForgeAus> or perhaps #ubuntu-bugs
[13:49] <ronny__> ForgeAus: thanks, I will try there.
[13:50] <Antkin> Bye going to off topic
[13:50] <ere4si> k
[13:50] <ere4si> c ya later
[13:50] <giovanni> hi, what on earth do I have to install to have dvd playback support? :)
[13:51] <giovanni> kaffeine complains I can't play a dvd
[13:51] <ere4si> !dvd | giovanni
[13:51] <ubotu> giovanni: For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at !Medibuntu or (for Feisty and earlier) http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs
[13:51] <Cew27> anyone? im having problems with multiple desktops
[13:52] <ere4si> !dual | Cew27
[13:52] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about dual - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[13:52] <ere4si> Cew27, what's the vid card?
[13:55] <ForgeAus> ronny I guess no1 that can do much about it is awake or willing to do anything about it there
[13:57] <ronny__> ForgeAus: yes, seems so
[13:57] <gundam_rx78nt1> Ok, I have looked in the forums and now I would like to ask the question here: how do I prevent firefox from taking the system colors?
[13:57] <ronny__> OK, I tried my best. Now I have to go on with my stuff...
[13:57] <Cew27> ere4si: its an onboard intel  i had it working in gnome but on kde i have twice as many desktops as i pick and the cube in compiz will only show 2
[13:58] <ere4si> Cew27, never use compiz - tried in #compiz-fusion?
 ronny__: can you open a terminal and run "sudo aptitude install libqt3-mt" please?
[14:01] <gundam_rx78nt1> ok, never mind.  I found it.

[14:35] <olie> how do you read memos on konversation
[14:36] <ForgeAus> memo's are generally part of the irc-server not so much konversation
[14:36] <ForgeAus> is there a memoserv?
[14:36] <ForgeAus> if so /msg memoserv help
[14:36] <olie> thnx
[14:36] <ForgeAus> or just incase that doesn't work /msg help memoserv :)

[14:50] <ioricarlos> hola
[14:51] <Tm_T> root____: hi
[14:51] <ioricarlos> como entro a kubuntu es
[14:51] <olie> can kde 3.5.9 work on edgy
[14:52] <Tm_T> olie: if you build it, I suppose
[14:52] <comp5> how can i share printer>D1300 deskjet> shared comps
[14:53] <BluesKaj> comp5:  how is it connected ?
[14:53] <olie> Tm_T: how do i go about building it? im a noob lol
[14:53] <Tm_T> olie: I guess that tells you enough ;))
[14:53] <comp5> have  8 comps and can seem to find it thro' the net
[14:54] <gundam_rx78nt1> ioricarlos: tienes que escribir "/join #kubuntu-es" sin los " "
[14:54] <Tm_T> olie: seriously, if you don't mind learning a LOT of things, techbase.kde.org have instructions for a lot of things :))
[14:54] <BluesKaj> comp5: pls be more specific , home network ?
[14:55] <comp5> no a cyber network. i want to be able to print from different computer in different locations.
[14:56] <BluesKaj> cyber network ?
[14:56] <comp5> yes..
[14:56] <comp5> ok i've set up my samba net work sharing ...
[14:57] <BluesKaj> home network then ..
[14:57] <comp5> but when in windows XP you can see computers on network (with linux) but you can't access them,
[14:57] <BluesKaj> comp5:  open system settings /printers
[14:58] <olie> dont know why im still using edgy i shud be using hardy
[14:58] <weedar> Can anyone reccommend a backup solution I can use on my laptop that will archive the specified files/directories, encrypt the backup and then upload it to a remote host via scp or ftp?
[14:59] <crxyem> So I compile a custom kernel, now knetworkmanager doesn't work, wired eth0, any ideas ???
[14:59] <crxyem> this was vanilla kernel
[15:00] <Tm_T> olie: why you should be using hardy?
[15:00] <olie> cuz stdin keeps tellin me so
[15:00] <Tm_T> olie: haha, that is not a good reason, son
[15:01] <llutz> comp5: if you already set up samba but your win-pcs cannot access, you'll need to correct your samba-settings
[15:01] <llutz> comp5: printer sharing won't need samba, even windows (xp and higher) can use ipp
[15:01] <olie> i gotta go ill be back later cya Tm_T :)
[15:01] <crxyem> rather than compiling a new kernel is it possible to recompile the current kernel only changing a few settings ??
[15:02] <comp5> how do icorrect my samba sharing??
[15:02] <Tm_T> olie: heh have fun my young padawan
[15:02] <comp5> llutz.??
[15:02] <llutz> comp5: check your smb.conf
[15:03] <comp5> smb.conf? where can i find it
[15:04] <llutz> comp5: you said you already configured samba,so you should know it
[15:04] <comp5> yes
[15:06] <comp5> ok now i get u.. then what shld i do
[15:06] <llutz> comp5: samba is quite well documented, there are loads of howtos and tutorials, just start reading them.
[15:07] <llutz> comp5: and regarding your printer: read cups-documentation to
[15:07] <llutz> too
[15:16] <BluesKaj> the hp 1300 deskjet should be easily recognized by cups
[15:17] <krwlng> bu virtual box bulanın elleri dert görmesin :D
[15:19] <BluesKaj> comp5 , what is the operating system on the pc to which the printer is connected ?
[15:20] <Ax-Ax> how do i mount something with all user read/write access by cli?
[15:21] <llutz> Ax-Ax: what filesystem?
[15:21] <Ax-Ax> vfat
[15:21] <Ax-Ax> no
[15:21] <Ax-Ax> ntfs :(
[15:21] <dthacker> !ntfs
[15:21] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions - For write access, see /msg ubotu NTFS-3g or /msg ubotu FUSE
[15:23] <mohamed_> hi, is there a good gui cvs client that i can use with kubuntu ?
[15:24] <Ax-Ax> dthacker, i wanted to know how to do it with 'mount' :(:S
[15:25] <llutz> !ntfs-3g
[15:25] <ubotu> ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[15:25] <llutz> Ax-Ax: maybe there
[15:25] <dthacker> Ax-Ax: check the forums or wait 5 mins for me to google the string I used last week.
[15:26] <llutz> Ax-Ax: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions/ThirdPartyNTFS3G
[15:26] <comp5> be4 installing a printer in linux should i install any printr drivers
[15:26] <Ax-Ax> ..ok
[15:26] <Ax-Ax> ;S
[15:27] <mohamed_> anyone know a good cvs gui client, ?

[15:28] <mohamed_> thx, Daisuke_Ido
[15:28] <stephan> hi, im using a glassfish application server, and at some point is stop acception connections from my load generator, i googled a lot by cannot find a hint, the cpu load is less than 20%
[15:29] <dthacker> Ax-Ax: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=578648&highlight=mount+ntfs3
[15:29] <llutz> comp5: would you mind to explain your problem  concretely, what do you want to do, what have you done, what doesn't work? nobody can/will help you, without any info
[15:29] <Ax-Ax> dthacker: ok :)
[15:30] <dthacker> !cervesa
[15:30] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about cervesa - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[15:31] <dthacker> stephan: that's probably out of scope for the channel.  As they say in #apache, step 1 is to read the logs...
[15:31] <comp5> thanks liutz. its a cyber cafe n i want to be able for clients to print from their sitting positions and i cant get to share my printer so that my main server can see it.
[15:31] <llutz> comp5: printer works on computer it is attached to?
[15:32] <stephan> dthacker: hmm, ill try there
[15:32] <stephan> its very confusing
[15:32] <CuCbKu> what is the default username/pass to enter the system?
[15:32] <comp5> you mean i cant share it thro' the net
[15:32] <llutz> comp5: does the printer work on the computer it is attached to?
[15:32] <dthacker> CuCbKu: the user/pw you created during install should get you in.
[15:33] <llutz> comp5: can you print there locally
[15:33] <CuCbKu> but i use livecd
[15:33] <comp5> yes from the server only
[15:33] <llutz> comp5: it's a linux-server using cups?
[15:34] <dthacker> CuCbKu: ah, important fact!   I haven't used one in a while, does anyone else know?
[15:34] <comp5> yes
[15:34] <MilhousePunkRock> CuCbKu, dthacker: IIRC it's user: ubuntu and no password
[15:34] <llutz> comp5: and what are the clients using?
[15:35] <llutz> comp5: linux/windows ?
[15:35] <dthacker> MilhousePunkRock: tnx!
[15:35] <CuCbKu> thnx
[15:35] <comp5> linux too.. but sorry my server is using both xp and linux
[15:36] <llutz> comp5: edit /etc/cups/cupsd.conf on linux-server and change "Listen" "Browse" "Allow" to your network
[15:37] <llutz> comp5: after restarting cups-server, install printer on clients as network-printer, address ipp://ip-of-your-server
[15:38] <llutz> comp5: how to do that on a windows-server, you better ask in #windows
[15:38] <nicholas> Could anyone here recommend a fine KDE webcam application? :)
[15:39] <llutz> comp5: but win-clients can use printers shared with ipp-protocal since XP
[15:39] <axel> Hello! I want to update a translation manually. Therefore I fetched the completly translated PO file from the projects website. And now? What to to with the PO-file?
[15:40] <TimS> How can I get some basic info like this from the command line?
[15:40] <TimS> Sysinfo for 'tim-desktop': Linux 2.6.22-14-generic running KDE 3.5.8, CPU: Intel(R) Core 2 CPU          6420  @ 2.13GHz at 2133 MHz (4266 bogomips), HD: 145/336GB, RAM: 1956/2027MB, 152 proc's, 6.4h up
[15:40] <comp5> should i do in add printer then........follow instructions
[15:40] <vincent_> hey
[15:41] <vincent_> i have a problem with sound on kubuntu
[15:41] <dthacker> Tims: it's in various places.  cpu info would be 'cat /proc/cpuinfo'
[15:41] <vincent_> when i launch alsamixer, i get:
[15:41] <MilhousePunkRock> TimS: In the same manner? I think it's a combination of some commands, uname -r being one of them, for example
[15:41] <vincent_> alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device
[15:41] <MilhousePunkRock> TimS: Why not just look at top/htop?
[15:41] <dthacker> TimS: hard drive info would be the df command
[15:41] <vincent_> also, it seems that no sound card is found
[15:41] <vincent_> for example, kmix  does not show anything
[15:42] <vincent_> does someone have an idea ?.
[15:42] <dthacker> Tims: or you could be lazy (read efficient) and use top/htop like MilhousePunkRock says
[15:42] <TimS> :p
[15:42] <TimS> Is there one for dist info?
[15:42] <MilhousePunkRock> dthacker: Can I quote you on "lazy (read efficient)"? ;)
[15:43] <Dorwin6> tims : try uname -a
[15:43] <dthacker> yea :)
[15:43] <comp5> hi liutz.. am trying to put a printer port n cant get through.
[15:43] <TimS> Dorwin6: Cool, is there one that will sya like Kubuntu 7.10?
[15:43] <TimS> say*
[15:43] <llutz> comp5: add printer, network-printer, port: "ipp://ip.of.your.server"
[15:43] <flipstar> TimS: lsb_release -a or cat /etc/*release
[15:44] <BluesKaj> vincent_:  lspci  | grep audio   look for an "audio controller"
[15:44] <Dorwin6> tims : im not so sure about that sry :(
[15:44] <vincent_> BluesKaj: nothing is displayed
[15:44] <stephan> ok, i was told in #glassfish that it could be a "new connections / second" problem, does ubuntu have a iptables rule for this? or is it some where hidden in the kerne?
[15:45] <Dorwin6> tim : what is the command that u type to get the sysinfo 'tim-desktop'
[15:45] <BluesKaj> vincent_:  just lspci
[15:45] <comp5> process of add printer>
[15:45] <dthacker> stephan: that sounds like a server config setting.
[15:46] <vincent_> BluesKaj: i hve : 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) HD Audio Controller (rev 02)
[15:46] <flipstar> !intelhda | vincent_
[15:46] <ubotu> vincent_: For fixing your Intel HDA sound this page has useful information https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto
[15:46] <stephan> dthacker: no, i was told in  #glassfish, thats a os problem, i checked all connection options in glassfish for my selfe, no help there
[15:47] <comp5> cant seem to go through
[15:47] <vincent_> ubotu: ok, i'll look at this link
[15:47] <BluesKaj> vincent_:try this ,  asoundconf set-default-card "Intel Corporation 82801H"
[15:49] <vincent_> BluesKaj: ok, and after ?
[15:49] <dthacker> stephan: ok, doing a quick google shows me that others have run into this and that os specific tuning is needed.  I think you may have more luck in the Ubuntu server forums, or #ubuntu-server.  The server channel is lightly populated on weekends.
[15:50] <BluesKaj> vincent_:  now,  lspci | grep audio
[15:50] <Cew27> hey can anyone help me with multiple desktops !?!
[15:50] <stephan> dthacker: what where you keywords? im googleing hard
[15:50] <BluesKaj> comp5, where are you in the printer wizard process ?
[15:50] <vincent_> lspci | grep -i audio
[15:50] <vincent_> 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) HD Audio Controller (rev 02)
[15:50] <vincent_> same thing
[15:51] <dthacker> stephan: your probably going to have to do some low level digging into what resource is blocking (cpu, tcpip, othe
[15:51] <dthacker> r
[15:52] <dthacker> stephan: keywords were :glassfish setting connections per second
[15:52] <BluesKaj> vincent_:  good ,now ; k-menu/system settings/sound system/enable sound system,then choose hardware tab/select the audio device/Advanced Linux Sound Architecture, click apply

[15:55] <BluesKaj> llutz:  it's listed in his lspci
[15:55] <Cew27> anyone? i really need help
[15:55] <llutz> BluesKaj: that only means his pci-ids are ok, not that a driver is working
[15:56] <BluesKaj> yeah , forgot maybe the driver isn't installed or enabled
[15:56] <flipstar> !ask | Cew27
[15:56] <ubotu> Cew27: Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-)
[15:56] <vincent_> should i use synaptic to install the intel driver ?
[15:56] <llutz> vincent_: sudo modprobe snd-hda-intel
[15:58] <vincent_> llutz: after the command, still no cards found
[15:58] <vincent_> (/proc/asound/cards)
[15:58] <Cew27> flipstar: sorry i have asked the question loads of times and no one answers
[15:58] <llutz> vincent_: maybe you need a newer version of alsa, sry don't know
[15:58] <vincent_> llutz: ok
[15:59] <Cew27> i need help with compiz on kde i cant get the desktop cube working with multiple desktops
[15:59] <llutz> i gave up to use my onboard-soundcard (hda-intel too)
[15:59] <proge_> em, vincent_ is that a realtek 268?
[15:59] <vincent_> it seems indeed that there are some problems
[15:59] <vincent_> proge_: how can i check that ?
[15:59] <flipstar> Cew27: you have at least 3 desktops and know the shortcuts ?
[16:00] <proge_> if you know your computer specs
[16:00] <vincent_> it's a laptop without doc :/
[16:00] <vincent_> (i've stolen it, i promise !)
[16:00] <flipstar> Cew27: btw >> #compiz-fusion <<
[16:00] <vincent_> not stolen
[16:00] <vincent_> hehe
[16:00] <vincent_> hum

[16:01] <proge_> i had the same kinda problems with it
[16:01] <proge_> sudo vi /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base
[16:01] <vincent_> should i try to install alsa driver + lib ?
[16:02] <proge_> and insert "options snd-hda-intel model=acer" in the end after getting alsa 1.0.16
[16:02] <proge_> yeah i'd recommend that
[16:02] <proge_> what laptop do you have?
[16:02] <Cew27> flipstar: yes and yes

[16:10] <Dorwin6> how do i uninstall seamonkey ?
[16:10] <flipstar> sudo apt-get remove seamonkey :) or use adept instead
[16:12] <Dorwin6> tried that , doesnt work
[16:12] <flipstar> whats the error ?
[16:12] <Dorwin6> sudo apt-get remove seamonkey
[16:13] <Dorwin6> E: Couldn't find package seamonkey
[16:13] <Dorwin6> it is under /home/darren/seamonkey
[16:13] <llutz> Dorwin6: _how_ did you install it?
[16:13] <flipstar> did you installed seamonkey via a .deb or compiled from source ?
[16:13] <Dorwin6> via seamonkey installer
[16:13] <Dorwin6> seamonkey
[16:13] <Dorwin6> seamonkey-1.1.8.en-US.linux-i686.installer.tar.gz
[16:13] <Dorwin6> seamonkey-installer
[16:13] <llutz> Dorwin6: rm -rf ~/seamonkey
[16:14] <Dorwin6> that is not a proper way to uninstall application isnt it
[16:14] <Dorwin6> it will still leaves a mark there
[16:14] <llutz> it wasn't a proper way to install it
[16:14] <flipstar> maybe try the installer .. via --uninstall ..
[16:15] <alexander_> hi
[16:15] <llutz> Dorwin6: think about those things _before_ you install software without packaging-system
[16:15] <flipstar> there are nearly 30.000 apps in the repos ..
[16:15] <flipstar> err packages
[16:15] <Dorwin6> yea
[16:16] <llutz> and lots of 3rd party deb too
[16:16] <Dorwin6> nevermind, i guess i'll just install mozilla again, because amsn doesnt work without mozilla
[16:16] <ryancleminson> Hey
[16:16] <Dorwin6> hello ryan :)
[16:16] <ryancleminson> Hows it going
[16:17] <llutz> Dorwin6: seamonkey = iceape in gutsy, and it is in universe-repo
[16:17] <alexander_> blya
[16:17] <ryancleminson> I have never used the chat here
[16:18] <Dorwin6> llutz : but how do i get amsn work with seamonkey instead of mozilla ?
[16:18] <llutz> Dorwin6: no idea since  i don't use/need that
[16:18] <dam_> hi everyone how do I get to my brother's pc through the router ??
[16:19] <flipstar> !ssh
[16:19] <ubotu> SSH is the Secure SHell protocol. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHHowto for usage. Putty is a nice SSH client for Windows; it can be found at http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/
[16:20] <dam_> yeah but for example what do i do if I wanted to fetch a music file on his pc
[16:22] <Dorwin6> ah it wont now
[16:22] <Dorwin6> worked
[16:23] <flipstar> dam_: linux to linux ?
[16:23] <dam_> yes
[16:24] <flipstar> !nfs maybe this helps
[16:24] <flipstar> !nfs
[16:24] <jpatrick> !nfs | dam_
[16:24] <ubotu> dam_: nfs is the network file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNFSHowTo for information on installing and configuring NFS.
[16:24] <flipstar> hm
[16:30] <Daisuke_Ido> flipstar: i'm surprised the SFU option for using nfs on mixed networks hasn't gotten more popular
[16:30] <flipstar> SFU .. ?
[16:31] <flipstar> i prefer ftp anyway :)
[16:31] <llutz> Daisuke_Ido: most guys even ddon't know what it is/how to use it
[16:34] <somiran> why i can not enter into chat room in gaim
[16:34] <Daisuke_Ido> flipstar: services for unix (which is actually for windows)
[16:34] <Daisuke_Ido> provides nfs and other functions to windows users
[16:35] <Daisuke_Ido> in my limited experience, it was more reliable than samba
[16:35] <Daisuke_Ido> though slightly more work to set up
[16:36] <NickPresta> Any idea how to check what is causing X to use ~65% of my total RAM?
[16:43] <yao_ziyuan> i created a folder beginning with "." and it disappears in Dolphin. how do i find it and rename it?
[16:44] <llutz> yao_ziyuan: enable "view hidden files"
[16:44] <flipstar> or ctrl +h
[16:44] <yao_ziyuan> good
[16:44] <llutz> yao_ziyuan: files/dirnames starting with . are hidden :)
[16:44] <BluesKaj> locate:*.* in the konq addressbar
[16:44] <yao_ziyuan> i know that
[16:44] <yao_ziyuan> like .kde
[16:47] <dennister> hey all...i'm looking to install kubuntu on a donated emachines pc, and am having trouble finding the hidden partition for the restore cd...can't find it even with gparted...anyone know these particular machines and where to find the hidden partition?
[16:48] <dennister> my only experience with emachines was 6 months ago, and the partition was easy to find
[16:49] <somiran> why i do not get into chat room in gaim will any1 please tell
[16:49] <Daisuke_Ido> somiran: ask the pidgin devs
[16:49] <Daisuke_Ido> besides, gaim is outdated
[16:49] <somiran> ok thanks
[16:50] <flipstar> dennister: whats about fdisk or parted ?
[16:50] <BluesKaj> dennister:  it's usually about a 4G partition..on my HP it was the first partition, but gparted couldn't see it , so I used the Super Grub disk to reconfigure the mbr and voila it was listed in the menu as "recovery "
[16:51] <dennister> flipstar: u mean qparted?
[16:51] <dennister> supergrub, eh? i'll look for it
[16:51] <flipstar> parted as a little more options than qtparted ..
[16:52] <dennister> lousy xp...don't want to support it, but don't feel I should wipe it out, since it's going to someone else
[16:52] <Dorwin6> are there any intel proset software for linux version ?
[16:53] <somiran> what is the latest im in kubuntu now
[16:54] <flipstar> 7.10 aka gutsy gibbon
[16:54] <flipstar> 8.04 aka hardy heron will be the next
[16:55] <flipstar> 8.10 aka intrepid ibex the on after that
[16:55] <somiran> ok bye everyone
[16:56] <Ax-Ax> anyone here good at piping and such? i want a single row to 1. list a folder (musik) recursively for all files ending with .flac and 2. encode them to wav and then 3. encode them to mp3 an after that 4. move them to the folder ftp/asd
[16:58] <Lynoure> Ax-Ax: Certainly a bash script can do that. I'd skip step 2, though, I think you can go directly form flac to mp3
[16:58] <Ax-Ax> hm
[16:58] <Ax-Ax> how?
[16:59] <gladier> Ax-Ax: its going to go soemthing like ls -lR |grep .flac |xargs |mencoder blah |mencoder blah && ls -lR |grep .mp3  |xargs |mv ftp/asd/ && ls -lR |grep .wav |xargs |mv ftp/asd
[16:59] <Lynoure> at least one can go directly from flac to ogg, have not encoded anything into mp3s for a while
[16:59] <icewaterman> how can i use java with firefox on amd64?
[17:00] <icewaterman> there is an i386 compatibility plugin for firefox but seems no i32 java version for amd64
[17:00] <dennister> ok, downloading supergrub iso...was hard to find actually, lot of sites list it, and then nada...problem loading page or mirror doesn't exist anymore...parted is installed here on this machine, but it's the other non-linux-so-far machine I need to investigate
[17:01] <Ax-Ax> gladier, mencoder?
[17:04] <gladier> Ax-Ax: crap ... aint mencoder - i cant remember the name of the program i want
[17:04] <Ax-Ax> gladier, ok :S
[17:05] <llutz> Ax-Ax: https://savannah.nongnu.org/projects/audio-convert/
[17:08] <flipstar> icewaterman: guess you need to install firefox32bit
[17:12] <llutz> Ax-Ax: lame converts mp3 from flac, so no confusing reconverting needed
[17:12] <Ax-Ax> ok?
[17:12] <Blsh> please help eh
[17:13] <Blsh> i hve an RTL8101E but i cant get it to work ;(
[17:14] <Artimus> How can I make Ubuntu recognize my downloaded packages?  I'd like to copy /var/cache/apt/archives to a new box to avoid downloading a few hundred megs of updates.  I've heard it won't see the packages, however.  I can't setup a local apt-cache
[17:15] <ryancleminson> hi
[17:15] <llutz> Artimus: if that are actual versions, it should use them automagic
[17:16] <Artimus> llutz: From what I've read, it won't see them if it didn't download them itself
[17:16] <llutz> Artimus: i did that several times, it worked
[17:16] <Artimus> I'll give it a try.  I didn't think about this (just found it on the internet).  I could point the box at its own apt-cache
[17:16] <Artimus> (using apt-cacher)
[17:16] <llutz> Artimus: it have to be the versions, adept would download for update
[17:17] <Artimus> yeah
[17:17] <llutz> Artimus: use aptitude with -s for simulation, it will tell you how much it would like to download
[17:17] <Artimus> I've got Hardy installed in VMware right now.  I'm going to install it onto the box itself.  I don't want to download all of KDE4 and KDE3 *again*
[17:18] <tehbatz> hello, I am having troubles with sound in ubuntu 7.10. Every other boot I have no sound. I am using the latest version of alsa, and am doing a normal boot (no dual boot). Can anyone help me?
[17:18] <Artimus> Haven't used aptitude before.  Either adept (when I don't care) or apt for serious work.
[17:18] <Ax-Ax> lame -b 192 -h infile outfile
[17:18] <Ax-Ax> hm
[17:18] <Artimus> Ax-Ax: -h should be help
[17:18] <Artimus> Anyway, I guess I'll just give it a try.  I can always try the apt-cacher method if needed.
[17:18] <Ax-Ax> no
