| [00:41] <_2> Rioting_pacifist ok. you do know that when you switch tty's you lose the scroll back buffer for that tty don't you ? | |
| [00:42] <reggie> hey folks i'm new to gnome and i was trying to change the icon theme but for the life of me i cant figure out how to do it | |
| [00:42] <Rioting_pacifist> _2: no i didnt lol panic over | |
| [00:42] <lolren> hy | |
| [00:42] <lolren> i got a question | |
| [00:42] <reggie> in kde i know exactly where to go to do that but gnome seems to have that hidden well | |
| [00:42] <_2> Rioting_pacifist i mean you would need text inputed into a filter like less or screen if you need to switch tty's and still have more than one screen full of output | |
| [00:43] <reggie> does amyone know how to change the theme | |
| [00:43] <Dr_willis_> reggie well thats a question for #ubuntu :) but in short.. I fire up the gnome theme manager tool. access the icon theme tab.. and drag/drop new icon themes to it. :) that installs them. If thats what you mean.. | |
| [00:44] <timo_> moin moin | |
| [00:44] <reggie> so just drag and drop the tarball package? | |
| [00:44] <Dr_willis_> reggie or use that 'gnome-art' tool. | |
| [00:44] <Dr_willis_> reggie yep. | |
| [00:44] <Dr_willis_> assuming its packaged right | |
| [00:44] <reggie> hummm let me try it | |
| [00:44] <reggie> thanx one sec | |
| [00:44] <_2> Rioting_pacifist the reason behind that is that the kernel supports multiple ttys but the vidio chip only has one textmode buffer, and while it is the size of the vidio ram, it clears each time the screen is reset. | |
| [00:44] <lolren> i have a laptop ..... is not my laptop... is my girlfriend laptop and she`s got vista, i instaled ubuntu with wubi in d: drive but i dont see d: drive from linux.... does anyone knowes why? | |
| [00:45] <asclepius> anyone know to get bluetooth to autoconnect? | |
| [00:45] <Dr_willis_> lolren because you have to mount the windows drives to allow linux to access them | |
| [00:45] <reggie> hummm that didnt work | |
| [00:45] <lolren> i know that but i cant see them in /dev | |
| [00:45] <Dr_willis_> reggie what theme file and whats the url you got it from? | |
| [00:46] <lolren> brb 1 sec 1 have a idea.... | |
| [00:46] <Dr_willis_> lolren try 'sudo fdisk -l' and see whats seen | |
| [00:46] <Rioting_pacifist> _2: i never noticed that because most stuff just stays but as i was running gdb it set the whole thing to black thnkx for the help | |
| [00:46] <reggie> i downloaded the icon theme from the gnome website | |
| [00:46] <_2> Rioting_pacifist welcome | |

| [00:47] <lolren> Partition 1 does not end on cylinder boundary. | |
| [00:48] <lolren> i ntfs | |
| [00:48] <_2> Rioting_pacifist and the stuff displayes (as in without scrolling up) should stay put. that's in kernel ram but the scroll back buffer is cleared each change of tty the scroll back is in vidio ram not system ram. i hope i haven't done more to confuse than to help. | |
| [00:51] <Rioting_pacifist> _2: not at all its always good to learn new thing | |
| [00:53] <_2> Rioting_pacifist i had a lappy with ati everything, that the driver was not fully supporting the chip and it would clear the textmode buffer without reseting it, affecting all tty's when you switched in/out of vidio mode, and thus one switch to tty7(xorg) and back made tty1 ~ tty6 all black even tought when you start typing the text would appear everything above it was cleared from sight. that was a vidio driver issue and not n | |
| [00:55] <Rioting_pacifist> im using a similar setup, why do the ttys use video drivers though? | |
| [00:57] <_2> Rioting_pacifist they don't, xorg does, kernel frame buffer does(the boot splash thingy), and things like svgalibs do(support for graphical mode without xorg). it's normally the switching from vidio mode to textmode or even from one vidio mode to another vidio mode that hoses things. | |

| [01:22] <alex_21> Besides my own distro will be based on 8.04 | |
| [01:22] <Rioting_pacifist> media mplayer demon or something like that its a CLI media player IRRC | |
| [01:22] <Ashex> _2, media player daemon | |
| [01:22] <Ashex> what Rioting_pacifist said | |
| [01:22] <Ashex> you can use whatever client you want with it | |
| [01:22] <_2> Ashex and you are playing ? | |
| [01:23] <Ashex> _2, flac audio right now | |
| [01:25] <alex_21> Well, on another note, what is better for doing this. I want to play music from my firefly server and other ITunes libraries on my LAN. Is Songbird, ATunes, amerock, or something else better for sighted users who have used ITunes and really don't know much about computing, so I want the closest thing | |
| [01:25] <_2> hmmm and your cpu is ? | |
| [01:25] <alex_21> I mean the closest visual thing | |
| [01:26] <Ashex> _2, AMD Athlon X2 2.6Ghz | |
| [01:26] <Ashex> alex_21, you want something similar to itunes? | |
| [01:26] <alex_21> Yes, visually similar | |
| [01:27] <_2> Ashex that media player if not doing a lot of visual affects is pretty heavy. sox playing .ogg files on a 1ghz copper mine is using less than 10% of my cpu time ;/ | |
| [01:27] <Ashex> Alex135_, the default music player for ubuntu should do it | |
| [01:27] <Ashex> I'm blanking on the name | |

| [01:42] <Dillizar> if i upgrade the 8.04 to 8.10 will my kernel be changed ?? | |
| [01:42] <Ashex> Dillizar, yes, the previous kernels are preserved though | |
| [01:42] <_2> yeah huh | |
| [01:42] <Dr_willis_> Dillizar i would say yes... | |
| [01:42] <Ashex> you can select the previous kernel during boot | |
| [01:43] <Dillizar> oh well i already installed a fresh 8.10 but its good to know cuz this new kernel doesnt support anything | |
| [01:43] <_2> wait i have a question, if i remove /sys how does it break usb ? | |
| === Cueball is now known as Cueball_ | |
| [01:43] <Ashex> _2, why do you want to remove /sys? | |
| [01:43] <Dr_willis_> remove /sys ? egads | |
| [01:43] <Dillizar> so i can have old kernel but new kde?? | |
| [01:44] <Ashex> Dillizar, yes | |
| [01:44] <Dr_willis_> If you dont want kde4 - dont upgrade... :) | |
| [01:44] <Dillizar> :D | |
| [01:44] * mister-tea don't upgrade gets my vote | |
| [01:46] <_2> Ashex reason matters not. question remains, how did it break usb ? | |
| [01:47] <roland> i'm having problems with nvidia restricted modules | |

| [01:48] <Ashex> _2, I believe udev relies on it | |

| [01:49] <burn_> anyone know any proxy for linux that can be run from K menu? | |
| [01:49] * mister-tea well at least it's polite | |
| [01:49] <_2> Ashex but i don't use udev so that's not the problem. | |
| [01:49] <Ashex> _2, udev isn't the only thing that does, It's a major part of the system, I just can't think of a reason atm | |
| [01:50] <_2> Ashex the device nodes are all there in /dev/ and the modules are all inserted but without /sys mount /dev/sda1 /mnt fails miserably. | |
| [01:50] <_2> i'm trying to wrap my head around why | |
| [01:55] <Ashex> _2, I'm not entirely sure, reason I can't answer is because having /sys is slightly out of standard | |
| [01:55] <Ashex> _2, you're question is better asked in ##linux | |
| [01:56] <_2> Ashex or in #kernel | |
| [01:56] <Ashex> that too | |

| [02:43] <Dillizar> KiDFlaSh, maybe if you close all other audio and video players will work ! | |
| [02:44] <Dillizar> or smt if you are calling some one on skype flash sound will not work | |
| [02:44] <KiDFlaSh> wtf? | |

| [02:44] <Dillizar> or smt like that | |
| [02:44] <jussi01> KiDFlaSh: no, its simple, go to system settings, sounds, and raise the importance of the usb headset there | |
| [02:44] <KiDFlaSh> i already done that | |
| [02:44] <KiDFlaSh> jussi | |
| [02:44] <jussi01> Dillizar: that shouldnt affect it | |
| [02:45] <KiDFlaSh> thats the problem | |

| [02:47] <jussi01> KiDFlaSh: is it only not working ion flash? or elsewhere also? | |
| [02:47] <KiDFlaSh> amarok and flash | |
| [02:48] <jussi01> KiDFlaSh: and youve set it to highest priority in all the categories in system settings - sounds? | |
| [02:48] <KiDFlaSh> yes | |
| [02:48] <KiDFlaSh> ALL categories | |
| [02:49] <jussi01> KiDFlaSh: 1 moment | |
| [02:51] <Walzmyn> I tried turning the desktop effects on in KDE4 - now the screen is black. How can i fix this? | |
| [02:51] <alex_21> Hi, I am back, just reinstalled | |
| [02:51] <jussi01> KiDFlaSh: and you have restarted both firefox/konq and amarok after changing the settings? | |

| [02:53] <alex_21> Which client? | |
| [02:53] <Dillizar> ahhh | |
| [02:54] <Dillizar> you were searching for a program that looks like Itunes | |
| [02:54] <Dillizar> yes | |

| [02:54] <KiDFlaSh> yes jussi01 i have | |
| [02:54] <Dillizar> i have tested :P | |
| [02:54] <alex_21> Is that the one you mean? | |
| [02:54] <Dillizar> yes | |
| [02:55] <Dillizar> it works good i am useing it right now | |
| [02:55] <Dillizar> and supports ipods | |
| [02:56] <alex_21> Yes, that is cool, it supports IPods | |
| [02:56] <alex_21> IPods, Yay | |
| [02:56] <Dillizar> yes | |
| [02:56] <alex_21> Do you guys know if it supports the speech feature of the chromatic IPods? | |
| [02:56] <alex_21> IPods | |
| [02:58] <Dillizar> Banshee? | |
| [02:58] <alex_21> Something is wrong with my network, it is 11KB persecond, when it can handle 10MegaBits persecond | |
| [02:58] <alex_21> Yes, can Banshee handle that feature? | |
| [02:58] <Dillizar> try it out | |
| [02:58] <Dillizar> :D | |
| [02:59] <alex_21> I will, as soon as Banshee finishes downloadind | |
| [02:59] <alex_21> I said there is something wrong with my network | |
| [02:59] <Dillizar> maybe its just your internet that is slow | |
| [02:59] <Dillizar> :P | |
| [03:01] <alex_21> It can handle 10 MegaBits per second, and is only handling 11 KB per second | |
| [03:01] <alex_21> It is set up like this | |
| [03:02] <Dillizar> dunno | |
| [03:02] <Dillizar> try sudo pppoeconf | |
| [03:02] <Dillizar> again and set it | |
| [03:03] <Dillizar> if its a pppoe modem | |
| [03:03] <alex_21> A Ubuntu DHCP server plugged into a 16 port 100/10 port switch. A Lynksys router, the gateway, plugged into the switch. The main internet line goes into the WAN port on the router. The rest of the machines are conncected via the switch, except my laptop which is connected via wire to the Lynksys router | |
| [03:03] <Dillizar> there is your problem | |
| [03:04] <Dillizar> JUST PUT THE DAMN MODEM CABLE IN YOUR LAN | |
| [03:04] <Dillizar> :D | |
| [03:04] <Dillizar> you are sharing your internet | |
| [03:04] <alex_21> I don't have enough IP addresses to feed all the machines directly from the cable internet | |
| [03:05] <alex_21> And it is only three machines running right now, and one of them is only using IRC | |
| [03:05] <KiDFlaSh> jussi01: still hereß | |
| [03:05] <Dillizar> lol KiDFlaSh | |
| [03:05] <Dillizar> :D | |
| [03:05] <alex_21> It used to be fast before I introduced the central switch | |
| [03:06] <alex_21> Now each machine adverages about 11 KB per second | |
| [03:06] <Dillizar> remove the central switch | |
| [03:07] <alex_21> Can I set it up differently, like have the dhcp server plugged directly into the router | |
| [03:07] <Dillizar> or just take a wifi router | |
| [03:07] <alex_21> Or will that not make a difference | |
| [03:07] <Dillizar> :D | |
| [03:07] <alex_21> ? | |
| [03:07] <Dillizar> dunno i just put the cable in my pc sudo pppoeconf | |

| [03:17] <alex_21> I modified the default Webkit source for GTKLauncher and now I want to compile it | |
| [03:18] <Ch1ppy> hey, I was on a few days ago and someone mentioned that the kde 4.2 beta 1 packages are being worked on, but alluded to being unable to give a timeline. Is there anywhere I can watch for an announcement of these packages in lieu of a date for these being ready? | |
| [03:18] <Tm_T> Ch1ppy: no, noone cannot tell "when" they're ready until they are | |
| [03:18] <Ch1ppy> That's what I'm saying | |
| [03:18] <Tm_T> Ch1ppy: but when they are ready, www.kubuntu.org is the place | |
| [03:18] <Ch1ppy> Tm_T: awesome, thanks | |
| [03:19] <Tm_T> np | |
| [03:20] <epimeth> Ch1ppy: there are packages ready... let me find them for you | |
| [03:21] <Ch1ppy> epimeth: for serious? Nice! | |
| [03:21] <Tm_T> epimeth: no, don't say you're proposing Neon... | |
| [03:22] <epimeth> I am, actually... why not, Tm_T? | |
| [03:22] <Ch1ppy> Ahaha | |
| [03:22] <Tm_T> epimeth: it's not the same (;) | |
| [03:23] <Ch1ppy> Isn't neon only certain parts of kde 4? | |
| [03:23] <Ch1ppy> I was under the impression that it was more the stuff for developing rather than the actual desktop stuff | |
| [03:23] <alex_21> So how do I compile GTKLauncher for Ubuntu | |
| [03:23] <alex_21> ? | |
| [03:23] <Tm_T> Ch1ppy: mmmm, it's most of KDE but it's more like "daily" than "polished release" | |
| [03:24] <Tm_T> alex_21: does sourcepackage of it have INSTALL or README files? | |
| [03:24] <Ch1ppy> Tm_T: Oh okay. I knew that neon is the nightlies though - I run amarok's neon | |
| [03:24] <Tm_T> roger | |
| [03:24] <Ch1ppy> I think I'd rather wait for the actual beta rather than the nightlies of 4.2 though | |
| [03:24] <epimeth> Ch1ppy: so yea, its project neon and its nightly | |

| [03:34] <beanbag> anyone have a problem with screen flicker on Dell laptop with 8.10? | |
| [03:35] <alex_21> I had the problem on an Acer Aspire laptop and screen flicker, lol | |
| [03:35] <beanbag> any solution? | |
| [03:36] <alex_21> No, I went back to Hardy and am having no problems | |
| [03:36] <alex_21> Someone here said that it may not meet RAM requirements | |
| [03:37] <beanbag> the laptop has 2G RAM or is it graphics memory | |
| [03:40] <alex_21> I don't know | |
| [03:42] <alex_21> Does anyone know how to compile and install GTKLauncher, the free, basic Web Browser included with Webkit source | |
| [03:43] <beanbag> I think I'll try going back since it worked fine then, Thanks for the input | |
| [03:44] <_2> !checkinstall | alex_21 | |
| [03:44] <ubottu> alex_21: checkinstall is a wrapper to "make install", useful for installing programs you compiled. It will create a .deb package, which will be listed in the APT database and can be uninstalled like other packages. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CheckInstall - Read the warnings at the top and bottom of that web page, and DO NOT interrupt CheckInstall while it's running! | |
| [03:44] <alex_21> Before you do, look on the foum at http://www.ubuntuforums.org/ someone may have found a way to fix it | |
| [03:45] <alex_21> But how do I compile it first | |
| [03:46] <alex_21> ? | |

| [04:04] <Viking667> Hey all. Got Hardy, want to upgrade to Intrepid. The "desktop" itself hasn't notified me that there's an update version to Intrepid available, how do I get the version to dist-update? | |
| [04:04] <_2> !upgrade | |
| [04:04] <ubottu> For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes | |
| [04:05] <Viking667> ahh. So it's there. I'll go back there and look again. Thank you. | |
| [04:06] <_2> Viking667 if all else fails you can use the manual methood. change your /etc/apt/sources.list from hardy to intrepid and apt-get update ;apt-get dist-upgrade | |
| [04:08] <Viking667> ... hm. The web page applies to ubuntu, not kubuntu. I haven't found a "Software Sources" application, (presumably that manages the repositories) | |

| [04:14] <hayt3r> hello | |
| [04:14] <hayt3r> is there anyway to upgrade kubuntu to latest version from 5.10 without using cd? | |
| [04:15] <jmichaelx> hayt3r: you have no CD ROM drive with this machine? | |
| [04:15] <hayt3r> it's broken | |
| [04:16] <jmichaelx> i would think you really need a fresh install if you are still using 5.10 | |
| [04:16] <jmichaelx> can your machine boot from USB? | |
| [04:17] <hayt3r> I don't remember seeing that in the boot options | |
| [04:17] <hayt3r> this is an old machine | |
| [04:18] <jmichaelx> it sounds to me like you really should buy a CD ROM drive, or rob one from another machine - at least temporarily | |
| [04:19] <hayt3r> haha that's what I was afraid of | |
| [04:19] <jmichaelx> is this a laptop? | |
| [04:19] <hayt3r> no, it's desktop | |
| [04:19] <jmichaelx> using a standard CD ROM drive? | |
| [04:20] <hayt3r> yea | |
| [04:20] <jmichaelx> well, getting a hold of another drive shouldn't be too big of a deal | |
| [04:20] <jmichaelx> go to a PC repair shop, and they might just give you an old one | |
| [04:21] <hayt3r> ok, i'll deal with this after finals are over then | |
| [04:22] <alex_21> What machine is this? | |
| [04:22] <alex_21> I mean, a Dell, HP, what | |
| [04:22] <alex_21> ? | |
| [04:22] <hayt3r> custom, from 8 yrs ago | |
| [04:24] <jmichaelx> hayt3r: i am not sure what else to recommend. you could possibly try upgrading to dapper... then upgrading to hardy... then to intrepid, but that would take aeons | |
| [04:26] <jmichaelx> instructions from upgrading from dapper to hardy directly: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HardyUpgrades | |
| [04:26] <jmichaelx> for* | |
| [04:33] <alex_21> Anyone know about Apple routers here? | |
| [04:36] <jreinaldo> I''m using Kubuntu intrepid. Every time after I choose a new video resolution (System configuration/screen) it hangs. Only rebooting solves the problem. There is someone how knows why? | |
| [04:43] <eamon> hello im trying to set up a proxy server on my network iv got as far as installing squid and restarting it but it comes up with a message sayingFATAL cound not determine fully qualified hostname. | |
| [04:44] <eamon> please set 'visible_hostname | |
| [04:44] <eamon> can anyone help | |
| [04:45] <eamon> hello | |
| [04:47] <alex_21> Well, use hostname.local maye | |
| [04:48] <alex_21> Maybe | |
| [04:53] <jmichaelx> jreinaldo: you might try installing and running 'displayconfig-gtk' , and see if that might help you | |
| [04:53] <jmichaelx> jreinaldo: i am also lost these days with the new xorg and everything | |
| [04:55] <loganWHD> what is the "control Panel" called where i can see the settings of the sound drivers | |
| [04:55] <loganWHD> I need to apt-get install it and i dont know what it is called | |
| [04:55] <jreinaldo> jichaelx: I think that this packge (displayconfig-gtk) isn't in the repositories of intrepid | |
| [04:56] <jreinaldo> jichaelx: I checked now and this package doesn't appear in the Adept list | |
| [04:56] <jmichaelx> jreinaldo: it looks like you're right about that | |
| [04:57] <loganWHD> ? | |
| [04:58] <DaveTheAve> So does anyone have a working widget for lowest local gas prices? | |
| [04:58] <jmichaelx> jreinaldo: i basically knew what to do in the old days, but anymore i do not even know how to tell what video driver is being used | |
| [04:58] <DaveTheAve> Noticed the Mac X widget support has yet to be finished. | |
| [04:59] <jreinaldo> jichaelx: I'm lost too. The xorg.conf doesn't show anything! | |
| [05:01] <loganWHD> what is the "control Panel" called where i can see the settings of the sound drivers | |
| [05:01] <loganWHD> I need to apt-get install it and i dont know what it is called | |
| [05:01] <jmichaelx> loganWHD: i guess i am not sure what you are asking for | |
| [05:02] <loganWHD> i installed the mini-iso in an attempt to fix many of my issues i am having with 8.10 | |
| [05:02] <loganWHD> and my sound card doesnt work | |
| [05:02] <loganWHD> and i want to go to teh settings area to check them out but that isnt installed | |
| [05:02] <loganWHD> i dont know what it is called so i can apt-get it | |
| [05:03] <jmichaelx> loganWHD: you can check various volume settings by entering 'alsamixer' in a console. you then use your direction keys to make changes, and hit escape when you're finished | |
| [05:03] <loganWHD> yah that isnt the issue | |
| [05:03] <loganWHD> they arent muted | |
| [05:03] <loganWHD> and the volume is up | |
| [05:03] <loganWHD> but when i boot a small box pops up and says that the driver isnt working so it switches to default | |
| [05:04] <loganWHD> i went thru https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto step by step | |
| [05:04] <jmichaelx> hmm | |
| [05:04] <loganWHD> with no success | |
| [05:05] <jmichaelx> loganWHD: what sort of PC are you using? what audio adapter? | |
| [05:05] <loganWHD> it is a dell inspiron 9400 | |
| [05:05] <loganWHD> laptop | |
| [05:05] <raulintrepid> #ubuntu-es | |
| [05:05] <jmichaelx> so it has an intel audio adaptor? | |
| [05:05] <raulintrepid> #kubuntu-es | |
| [05:05] <loganWHD> yes | |
| [05:07] <loganWHD> i have tried so many things with no success | |
| [05:08] <loganWHD> all of this started because the sound worked but the mic did not | |
| [05:08] <loganWHD> now no sound... no mic... nada | |
| [05:09] <jmichaelx> loganWHD: i do not know whether or not this is your issue, but i know some have had issues getting audio to work on the mini 9's... and this is the fix: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=981602 | |
| [05:10] <loganWHD> i will try anything | |
| [05:10] <loganWHD> let me go read this | |
| [05:10] <jmichaelx> that may not work for you at all. have you checked to actually see what kind of audio adapter you have with 'lspci'? | |
| [05:12] <loganWHD> 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801G (ICH7 Family) High Definition Audio Controller (rev 01) | |
| [05:13] <jmichaelx> ok, you might try that fix in the thread i suggested... no guarantees. | |

| [05:19] <alex_21> Hey, what is broadcast in the file /etc/network/interfaces? | |
| [05:20] <alex_21> ? | |
| [05:22] <jmichaelx> alex_21: i am sort of thinking that it is just stating what address range your router is broadcasting to | |
| [05:22] <jmichaelx> alex_21: i assume the last 6 digits are 255.255 | |
| [05:23] <jmichaelx> or at least the last three digits are .255 | |
| [05:23] <alex_21> So what should it be set to if the router broadcasts to 255 | |
| [05:23] <alex_21> 192.168.0.255? | |
| [05:24] <jmichaelx> alex_21: that only means that the address in the range of those last 3 numbers are masked | |
| [05:24] <jmichaelx> i don't really know how to explain this, but you don't want to/need to change that | |

| [05:40] <alex_21> I need static as it is a server that I need to port forward to | |

| [06:27] <dwidmann> stof: speaking of the arlier attempt to paste, paste it in a pastebin (see channel topic) and give us a link so we can look at it | |
| [06:27] <jimi_> gracias | |
| [06:28] <alex_21> So how do I compile it and then package it | |
| [06:28] <alex_21> I am using checkinstallforpackaging | |
| [06:29] <dwidmann> alex_21: run sudo checkinstall after you run make | |
| [06:29] <alex_21> But this is the first time I do it, so please help me get through it | |
| [06:29] <alex_21> I need a little walk through | |
| [06:29] <dwidmann> alex_21: does the project include a "configure" script? | |
| [06:29] <stof> this is the link: http://pastebin.com/m53cadca0 | |

| [06:35] <stof> thank you dwidmann, I will try now | |
| [06:35] <alex_21> No, just a simple.svg, a main.c and a text.html that is used to test the browser | |
| [06:36] <dwidmann> alex_21: try running "gcc main.c" and see what happens | |
| [06:37] <alex_21> What is the svg for? | |
| [06:37] <dwidmann> alex_21: it's probably referenced by the html file | |

| [07:44] <RurouniJones> That doesn't help, you mean you have no network connections? | |

| [07:49] <RurouniJones> shoudl be in the taskbar bottom right | |
| [07:50] <RurouniJones> alex_21: What interfaces does it list? It should be something like eth0 or eth1 then a whole bunch of information about it | |
| [07:50] <RurouniJones> like inet addr etc. | |
| [07:51] <alex_21> MSI? | |

| [07:51] <kenda> people | |
| [07:51] <RurouniJones> That was for dabbu, | |

| [07:53] <bazhang> kenda, /join #ubuntu-ru | |
| [07:53] <RurouniJones> and do you have a ton of info about then including things like inet addr | |
| === Cueball_ is now known as Cueball | |
| [07:53] <alex_21> Yes, but no way to read it all | |
| [07:53] <RurouniJones> you have eyeballs don't you? | |
| [07:54] <RurouniJones> Just tell me what the inet addr bit says | |
| [07:54] <RurouniJones> something like -> inet addr: 192.168.0.1 | |
| [07:54] <alex_21> Yes, I do, | |
| [07:54] <alex_21> But I am blind, VIP, Visually Impaired Person | |
| [07:55] <RurouniJones> ok, on a longshot then, try -> ifup eht0 | |
| [07:55] <alex_21> 192.168.0.1 | |
| [07:55] <DarkriftX> trying to mount a usb storage device (right clicking on the icon and selecting mount) and i get an error about "isCallerPrivileged()" | |
| [07:55] <RurouniJones> ifup eth0 rather | |
| [07:55] <alex_21> 192.168.0.102 | |
| [07:55] <DarkriftX> any idea why? | |
| [07:55] <RurouniJones> Ok, so your network interfaces are working | |
| [07:56] <RurouniJones> Now, how are you trying to access your website? What is the URL | |
| [07:56] <alex_21> http://www.vipbc.org/ | |
| [07:57] <RurouniJones> Ok, what happens when you try localhost:80 | |
| [07:57] <alex_21> But in using the command /etc/init.d/networking restart I get an error. No ... Something, ... Process | |
| === rickus is now known as R2-D2 | |
| [07:59] <RurouniJones> Well it looks like the interfaces are up on an internal IP address | |
| [07:59] <RurouniJones> I can't comment further without knowing what the ... Something ... is | |
| [08:00] <RurouniJones> I am gonna go on the assumption that the interfaces are up and are on the IP addresses they are supposed to be. I am assuming your server is on an internal network behind a NAT router | |
| [08:00] <alex_21> I am behind a router, but everything worked fine until I made eth1 static instead of dynamid with dhcp] | |
| [08:01] <RurouniJones> ...Why did you make it static | |
| [08:02] <alex_21> It is the inerface my mail server uses to connect, so I had to port forward to it | |
| [08:02] <RurouniJones> Then check the port forwarding for port 80 | |
| [08:02] <alex_21> BTW, I can't ssh, scp, afp, or anything to that machine | |
| [08:03] <RurouniJones> Yes, probably because you broke the port-forwarding by changing the IP address | |
| [08:03] <alex_21> Port forwarding isn't the problem as I can't access it over the LAN either | |
| [08:03] <alex_21> I can ping it fine | |
| [08:04] <RurouniJones> Change it back to DHCP and not static and see what that does | |
| [08:05] <alex_21> Hi, I can't do that. The comment symbol # is not accessible in vi with ORca | |
| [08:06] <alex_21> Also, the eth1 didn't used to be inside the LAN, rather it was directly connected to the internet | |
| [08:07] <RurouniJones> With an IP address other than 192.168.*.* ? | |

| [08:12] <RurouniJones> alex_21: I have a prior appointment I have to go to soon so I won't be able to try and help much longer. Before you made the IP address on eth1 static what was the IP? Was it a 192.16.*.* address? | |
| [08:14] <alex_21> No, it was 70.70.*.* | |
| [08:15] <YnoR> ciao a tutti vado | |
| [08:16] <RurouniJones> alex_21: Ok then, that is the problem. | |
| [08:17] <RurouniJones> you went from a publicly accessible IP address to an internal LAN-only IP address | |
| [08:18] <RurouniJones> you will need to change it back to the former IP address, or set it back to DHCP so the DHCP server can do it for you | |
| === eric is now known as Guest61064 | |
| [08:20] <alex_21> Well, I moved it into the LAN and then port forwarded from my router that has a 70.70.*.* address, so does that not accomplish the same thing | |

| === Cueball_ is now known as Cueball | |
| [09:34] <Danny-The-Great> i have a problem after installing ubuntu | |

| [09:35] <Danny-The-Great> ok | |
| [09:36] <Danny-The-Great> well i got 2 hard disk drives on my pc..i have installed windows xp on the first one and ubuntu on the other one,but after installing ubuntu either windows xp or ubuntu cannot recognize the hdd i installed ubuntu in.can someone help?thanks | |
| [09:36] <jussi01> Danny-The-Great: so what exactly is happening? it doesnt boot? or? | |
| [09:37] <Danny-The-Great> well | |
| [09:37] <Danny-The-Great> i go to device manager | |
| [09:37] <Danny-The-Great> it shows both the hdd | |
| [09:37] <Danny-The-Great> but | |
| [09:37] <Danny-The-Great> when i go to my pc | |
| [09:37] <lumm> windows cant read the ubuntu partition cuz its a different file system | |
| [09:37] <Danny-The-Great> i can only see one hdd | |
| [09:37] <lumm> and visa verse with ubuntu. | |
| [09:37] <jussi01> !ext3 | Danny-The-Great | |
| [09:37] <ubottu> Danny-The-Great: ext3 is the default filesystem on Ubuntu, and the most popular on Linux. You can read/write from Windows to ext3 via http://www.fs-driver.org | |
| [09:38] <Kohlrabi> !ntfs | Danny-The-Great | |
| [09:38] <ubottu> Danny-The-Great: To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions - For write access, see !NTFS-3g or !FUSE | |
| [09:38] <Danny-The-Great> look... | |
| [09:38] <Danny-The-Great> in the past i had windows xp on both hdds | |
| [09:38] <Danny-The-Great> which where ntfs | |
| [09:39] <Danny-The-Great> but after installing on one of them,pc cannot recognize the hdd that linux was installed in | |
| [09:39] <jussi01> Danny-The-Great: you need a driver to access the ubuntu partition from windows - http://www.fs-driver.org | |
| [09:39] <Kohlrabi> in BIOS? | |
| [09:39] <Danny-The-Great> no | |
| [09:39] <Danny-The-Great> in bios end device manager | |
| [09:40] <Kohlrabi> What exactlky is "recognize" | |
| [09:40] <Danny-The-Great> pc reads them both succesful | |
| [09:40] <Danny-The-Great> it doesn't see | |
| [09:40] <Kohlrabi> What's a "BIOS end device manager"? | |
| [09:40] <Danny-The-Great> e.g. | |
| [09:40] <Danny-The-Great> i had 2 hdds | |
| [09:40] <Danny-The-Great> one called C | |
| [09:40] <Danny-The-Great> andthe other called F | |
| [09:40] <Danny-The-Great> but after installing ubuntu | |
| [09:41] <Danny-The-Great> on F | |
| [09:41] <Danny-The-Great> xp cannot see drive F | |
| [09:41] <Kohlrabi> because you installed Ubuntu on it? | |
| [09:41] <Danny-The-Great> yeap | |
| [09:41] <jussi01> Danny-The-Great: exactly! go install the driver I showed you... | |
| [09:41] <Kohlrabi> and it's nonexistant now | |
| [09:41] <Kohlrabi> no "F" | |

| [09:43] <Danny-The-Great> should i have to choose enable the read only option on ext2 installer? | |
| [09:44] <Kohlrabi> your choice | |
| [09:44] <Danny-The-Great> Linux Ext3 volumes can also be accessed. To do that, please read the FAQ section. | |

| [09:46] <manish> can ne one please help me boot to GNOME | |
| [09:46] <manish> It crashes when i try to boot into it ... I think it happed after i made a change in system settigns | |
| [09:46] <milos_> manish, why you removed ubuntu-desktop? | |
| [09:46] <jussi01> bdgraue: vlc can do that iirc | |
| [09:47] <Kohlrabi> Lest you'll blame the people here | |
| [09:47] <bdgraue> jussi01: i'll take a look, thx | |
| [09:47] <manish> just to install it all over again ... I thought may be that would help but i think it does not | |
| [09:47] <Kohlrabi> Danny-The-Great: It's all in the FAQ.... | |

| [09:47] <Kohlrabi> so | |
| [09:48] <Danny-The-Great> so | |
| [09:48] <Danny-The-Great> i can choose | |
| [09:48] <Danny-The-Great> if i want read only | |
| [09:48] <Kohlrabi> If you access Ext3 as Ext2, you can RW, but if it isnt unmounted properly the OS has to check the FS next time | |
| [09:48] <Danny-The-Great> can i leave it unmark? | |
| [09:48] <Kohlrabi> yep | |
| [09:48] <Kohlrabi> probably | |
| [09:48] <Danny-The-Great> yes | |
| [09:48] <Danny-The-Great> but | |
| [09:49] <Kohlrabi> you can still change your choice later :) | |
| [09:49] <milos_> manish, reinstaling is the last option. Could you boot into terminal? | |
| [09:49] <Danny-The-Great> ok....ok | |
| [09:49] <Danny-The-Great> god bless me | |
| [09:49] <Danny-The-Great> i have serious factory files on it | |

| [09:49] <Kohlrabi> It's a work HD? | |
| [09:49] <manish> milos: but i want to get back my GNOME as i am more comfortable with that | |
| [09:49] <Kohlrabi> You're aware that fs-driver doesn't provide ANY access right facility | |
| [09:50] <Kohlrabi> meaning everyone (in Windows) can access all the files on the ext-HD | |
| [09:50] <manish> i have reinstalled the ubuntu-desktop now using "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop" | |
| [09:50] <manish> now what should i do? | |

| [09:56] <manish> is that causing the prob | |
| [09:57] <milos_> maybe the compiz is making problem | |
| [09:57] <manish> i am sorry but i dont recollect what i changed in compiz as i changed many things just to make my system a little bit light | |
| [09:57] <manish> so what do i do now ... how do i reset the thig | |
| [09:57] <manish> i can access compiz from KDE where i am logged in right now | |
| [09:58] <milos_> so if compiz works with KDE it should work also with Gnome | |
| [09:59] <manish> ok now i remember what did i change in compix | |
| [09:59] <manish> it was teh Area Zoom which i enabled | |
| [09:59] <manish> now its disable (atleast that is what it is showing right now ) but still i am not able to login into GNOME | |
| [10:00] <yao_ziyuan> backport and proposed, which is more tested? | |
| [10:00] <milos_> you should remove remove ubuntu-desktop with "purge" that removes system settings. Also you can do that with compiz, just in case. So to completely remove it: | |
| [10:00] <milos_> manish, sudo apt-get purge ubuntu-desktop | |
| [10:01] <milos_> manish, sudo apt-get purge compiz | |
| [10:01] <manish> i am a new bie | |
| [10:01] <manish> can you tell me how do i do that | |
| [10:01] <manish> and how do i reinstall it later again | |
| [10:01] <milos_> then install it and restart | |
| [10:01] <manish> which one of the above command do i use | |
| [10:02] <manish> if both then in what order and how do i reinstall it | |
| [10:02] <milos_> both, first is to completely remove ubuntu-desktop with confs, and other is to remove compiz | |
| === Cueball_ is now known as Cueball | |
| [10:03] <faileas> milos_: he may also need to reinstall his logon manager methinks | |
| [10:03] <milos_> faileas, kdm? | |
| [10:03] <faileas> milos_: ya, in case its a problem with that | |
| [10:05] <milos_> manish, so do this command to remove these packages: sudo apt-get purge ubuntu-desktop kdm compiz | |
| [10:05] <milos_> manish, and this to install it again: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop kdm compiz | |
| [10:06] <milos_> than you will hopefully be able to log on to gnome | |
| [10:06] <manish> i am already on KDE | |
| [10:06] <manish> should i still run the command as it is showing me some warning | |
| [10:07] <manish> sorry to post it here | |
| [10:07] <manish> The K Desktop manager (kdm) daemon is typically stopped on package ? | |
| [10:07] <manish> ? upgrade and removal, but it appears to be managing at least one running ? | |
| [10:07] <manish> ? X session. ? | |
| [10:07] <manish> ? ? | |
| [10:07] <manish> ? If kdm is stopped now, any X sessions it manages will be terminated. ? | |
| [10:07] <manish> ? Otherwise, the new version will take effect the next time the daemon is ? | |
| [10:07] <manish> ? restarted. ? | |
| [10:07] <manish> ? ? | |
| [10:07] <milos_> manish, http://paste.ubuntu.com | |
| [10:07] <manish> ? Stop the kdm daemon? ? | |
| [10:07] <manish> ? ? | |
| [10:07] <manish> ? <Yes> <No> ? | |
| [10:07] <manish> ? | |
| [10:07] <manish> ok | |
| [10:08] <manish> but now what should ido yes or no | |
| === Cueball is now known as Cueball_ | |
| [10:09] <manish> milos: what should i do " Yes or no" | |
| [10:09] <milos_> the problem is that you are removing some packages which are running currently | |
| [10:09] <milos_> wait sec | |
| [10:10] <manish> k, so that is the reason i am asking you whether i should fo ahead and how will i install ubuntu desktop and kde again if i dont have any of the desktops | |
| [10:10] <faileas> manish: from CLI | |
| [10:11] <milos_> faileas, manish I think he should boot in to recovery mode | |
| [10:11] <milos_> and then to these two commands | |
| [10:11] <manish> sorry...... | |
| [10:11] <faileas> linux dosen't need a gui after all, and even when you're on KDE or gnome control alternate F(1-6) will throw you into a command line | |
| [10:11] <faileas> most newbies don't relalise it ;p | |
| [10:12] <faileas> milos_: no need for recovery mode | |
| [10:12] <milos_> faileas, ok then ctrl-alt-f1 and do these two commands | |
| [10:12] <faileas> ya | |
| [10:13] <manish> so please tell me now wht am i supposed to do | |
| [10:13] <milos_> manish, write these two commands somewhere: | |
| [10:14] <manish> which | |
| [10:14] <milos_> 1. sudo apt-get purge ubuntu-desktop kdm compiz | |
| [10:14] <milos_> 2. sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop kdm compiz | |
| [10:15] <manish> and then... | |
| [10:15] <milos_> manish, so you need press Ctrl+Alt+F1 and enter first command. | |
| [10:15] <milos_> manish, after that is completed enter second command | |
| [10:15] <mikkis> to do what? | |
| [10:16] <manish> then everything will be restored ??? | |
| [10:16] <mikkis> i'm interested too | |
| [10:16] <milos_> if it asks you with warning just answer yes | |
| [10:16] <manish> and then how do i logout and enter the gui | |
| [10:16] <manish> k | |
| [10:17] <milos_> to go back to gui Ctrl+Alt+F7 | |
| [10:17] <milos_> than you should reboot and choose gnome from login manager | |
| [10:17] <manish> ok so i am going to boom | |
| [10:17] <manish> now | |
| [10:17] <manish> thanks ya guys | |
| [10:18] <milos_> ok, and cross fingers :) | |

| [10:20] <manish> it says dpkg was inturrupte you need to run --configure -somethign manually | |
| [10:20] <manish> something like that | |
| [10:21] <manish> what was that problem...? | |
| [10:22] <milos_> probably the something wants installed correctly and dpkg is complaining now | |
| [10:22] <milos_> wasn't | |
| [10:23] <manish> so do u want me to jot down the error exactly "as it is " and tell you | |
| [10:23] <milos_> you got that output when running first command right? | |
| [10:23] <manish> ya | |
| [10:24] <milos_> yeah, run that command in konsole and paste it http://paste.ubuntu.com and put link here | |
| [10:25] <manish> http://paste.ubuntu.com/78239/ | |
| [10:26] <manish> how do you guys learn so much of command line commands | |
| [10:26] <milos_> try sudo dpkg --configure -a | |
| [10:26] <manish> i just wonder... is it the same way i am learning now | |
| [10:26] <milos_> manish, yup | |
| [10:27] <milos_> and we read manuals | |

| [10:27] <manish> k | |
| [10:27] <manish> nw wht | |
| [10:28] <jussi01> manish: nothing at all? | |

| [10:28] <manish> absolutelynothing | |
| [10:28] <jussi01> manish: try: sudo apt-get install -f | |
| [10:29] <jussi01> manish: and pastebin whatever output you have | |
| [10:30] <manish> nothing | |
| [10:30] <jussi01> show me ;) | |
| [10:30] <manish> is it that may be i hv purged compiz n ubuntu-desktop already | |
| [10:30] <jussi01> that command gives output... | |
| [10:30] <milos_> that ok. try now again Ctrl+alt+F1 and first command. | |
| [10:35] <Larson> guys, I've having issues with kdenetworkmanager using 100+mb ram...I've asked on #kde and it seems to be a kubuntu issue. Known? | |
| [10:38] <floown> hello | |
| [10:39] <floown> what is the alternative to "babel" for translation strings? | |
| [10:39] <milos_> floown, poedit | |
| [10:40] <floown> milos_: for KDE | |
| [10:40] <floown> in QT | |
| [10:40] <milos_> floown, yes i think is't kde | |
| [10:40] <milos_> is | |
| === sputnik is now known as sputnikrock | |
| [10:42] <milos_> Larson, kdenetworkmanager didn't work with wpa2 in my case aslo. I replaced it with network-manager-gnome | |
| [10:43] <Larson> milos_: hm..ok.. but then I need to pull in all of gnome I guess.. I'd like to avoid that | |
| [10:43] <milos_> Larson, it's a bit ugly but it works | |
| [10:44] <MrDarkUser> hi, I'm just about going insane, I'm doing a find command to find files that I want to copy, I also want to keep the path intact... and I want just those files and the part of the path to be represented in the backup | |
| [10:44] <manish> milos: still the same problem | |
| [10:44] <manish> i am not able to enter gnome | |
| [10:44] <manish> although i set GDM as the default DM when asked | |
| [10:45] <manish> while removing it said something that it was not able to remove because the directory was not empty . I think one of the things was themes and teh other i dont remember | |
| [10:45] <MrDarkUser> Now, I've gotten the bash script to say cp --parents /file/that/I/want/in/path/filename.txt to /dest/path/filename.txt | |
| [10:45] <jpnurmi> how do i install kde3 versions of kate, konsole, kile etc. in ubuntu intrepid? | |
| [10:46] <manish> i am not even able to boot into failsafe gnome. thisoption was not there earlier by this name | |
| [10:46] <manish> milos: u there...? | |
| [10:46] <milos_> manish, i'm thiking | |
| [10:46] <manish> milo: will i have to reformat the complete thing... PLease dont say "YES" | |
| [10:47] <milos_> manish, not yet | |
| [10:47] <manish> THANKYOU for your compliance :) | |
| [10:47] <Larson> milos_: this bug needs to be fixed though. Do you know where I should report it? | |
| [10:48] <MrDarkUser> but it turns out that --parents requires only directories!!!! it can't have the filename!!! I don't have the path, I only have the complete filename. I need to somehow strip out just the path. any hints? | |
| [10:48] <milos_> manish, now you should remove compiz, reboot and see if that helps | |
| [10:48] <manish> how...? | |
| [10:48] <MrDarkUser> Larson: launchpad? | |
| [10:48] <manish> sudo apt-get purge compiz...? | |
| [10:49] <milos_> manish, try in login manager Ctrl+Alt+F1 and sudo ... yes | |
| [10:49] <milos_> then reboot | |
| [10:49] <Larson> MrDarkUser: launchpad? | |
| [10:49] <Larson> please excuse my ignorenance...:) | |
| [10:50] <Larson> ignorance even... | |
| [10:50] <ptl> kommander is way cool, man. Thanks to it I was able to make my phylogeny analysis program graphic in a very quick fashion. | |
| [10:51] <milos_> Larson, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/knetworkmanager but search little before, maybe is reported | |
| [10:51] <manish> i am not able to login into the login manager now (ctl alt F1) it shows a black screen with a blue band | |
| [10:51] <Larson> alright, thanks | |
| [10:52] <milos_> manish, in session choose Failsafe or something like that and log in | |
| [10:52] <milos_> manish, you should get some kind of terminal | |
| [10:52] <manish> milos: now what s next | |
| [10:53] <milos_> manish, sudo apt-get remove compiz | |
| [10:54] <jussi01> I have a HP 6715b with a fingerprint reader. I can get it to display the fingerprint with aes2501, however does anyone know if its possible to get to use it to login and/or use it instead of entering my sudo password? | |
| [10:55] <manish> done ... now reboot..? | |
| [10:55] <milos_> manish, yeah | |
| [10:55] <manish> will be back | |
| [10:55] <milos_> ok | |
| [11:01] <manish> milos, even though i removed compiz i can see compiz fusion icon and compiz settings manager in my menu and yes for the boot into gnome i was unsuccessful | |
| [11:02] <manish> like every time i went till the wall paper stayed there for half a second or so and then crash ... | |
| [11:02] <manish> i think compiz icon and compiz settings manager isnot yet removed | |
| [11:03] <manish> should i remove every thing related to compiz from synaptic | |
| [11:04] <manish> milos u thr...? | |
| [11:04] <milos_> manish, you can remove that but I don't thik that is causing problems. Try it. | |
| [11:05] <milos_> manish, i don't know what else can cause problem | |
| === diego is now known as Guest21605 | |
| === Guest21605 is now known as azodiego | |
| [11:07] <manish> see i tell you the exact thing that i see when i enter gnome | |
| [11:07] <manish> ok? | |
| [11:07] <milos_> where you enter gnome | |
| [11:07] <manish> i enter my username and password then change sessions and then | |
| [11:08] <manish> enter | |
| [11:08] <milos_> ok | |

| [11:09] <manish> i see my wass paper for an instance and then again things go black and then in a few seconds i land up at the login page again | |
| [11:09] <manish> the same thing happens with gnome failsafe | |
| [11:10] <manish> now every thing related to compiz is removed accept the awn navigator | |
| [11:11] <manish> now should i try to go back to gnome ... till that time you think what could be the problem .. if it is still not solved... what say...? | |
| [11:11] <manish> milos, should i log out and check ..? | |
| [11:12] <milos_> manish, the problem is I don't know what is causing problem. maybe is Metacity or something else | |
| [11:12] <manish> but i did not do any thing to metacity atleast conciously | |
| [11:13] <manish> i will give it a try ... will join you in a moment | |
| [11:13] <milos_> manish, ok | |
| [11:16] <manish> i am into my gnome now | |
| [11:16] <manish> hows that dude ... thanks so much for help | |
| [11:16] <manish> but there is a little problem i guess | |
| [11:16] <Jaxxon> hi I have ubuntu 8.10 with gnome, how can I install kde with kubuntu cd | |
| [11:16] <milos_> manish, what | |
| [11:16] <manish> my awn navigator is not working | |
| [11:17] <milos_> manish, awn can't work without compiz | |
| [11:17] <Unksi> Jaxxon: if you want to install kde alongside with gnome, just do sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop or install kubuntu-desktop from synaptic | |
| [11:17] <Jaxxon> Unksi: I know this, but I want install it from cd | |
| [11:18] <Unksi> you could try adding the cd as a repo | |
| [11:18] <Jaxxon> Unksi: how can I do this? | |
| [11:18] <milos_> manish, you can try to install compiz but you can fall again in troubles | |
| [11:19] <milos_> i don't know, not sure what was the problem | |
| [11:19] <milos_> manish, you can try to install compiz and if you can't logon in Gnome, then you need to remove it again | |
| [11:20] <milos_> manish, that's you decision | |
| [11:20] <milos_> your | |
| [11:20] <Unksi> Jaxxon: try putting your cd in to the drive and do 'sudo apt-cdrom add' | |
| [11:21] <Jaxxon> Unksi: ok tnx | |
| [11:21] <Unksi> yw | |
| [11:22] <Unksi> you still have to install the kubuntu-desktop after that, though^ :) | |
| [11:22] <Lindows> lol, another person switching from ubuntu -> kubuntu | |
| [11:23] <Lindows> nice | |
| [11:23] <Lindows> RIP gnome | |
| [11:23] <Unksi> :) | |
| [11:23] <manish_> milos u thr...? | |
| [11:23] <milos_> Lindows, one just came back to gnome | |
| [11:23] <milos_> yup | |
| [11:23] <Unksi> kde rocks :P | |
| [11:24] <manish_> i compiled OO.o3 yesterday from RPM ... but it keeps on crashing and recovering and then crashing again | |
| [11:24] <manish_> ne Idea...? | |
| [11:25] <milos_> manish_, you don't install from rpm on ubuntu | |
| [11:25] <manish_> ya...? | |
| [11:25] <Unksi> there is a ppa for ooo3 | |
| [11:25] <manish_> i compiled it with the help of a person here ... | |
| [11:25] <manish_> using alien | |
| [11:25] <Unksi> deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/openoffice-pkgs/ubuntu intrepid main | |
| [11:25] <milos_> manish_, if you compiled it, than it was source, not RPM | |
| [11:25] <Unksi> add that one and you can install it with apt, works a lot better | |
| [11:26] <manish_> ya and so should i delete the folder from opt/OO3 | |
| [11:26] <milos_> manish_, don't use alien, that can srew you system | |
| [11:26] <milos_> manish_, use something like this deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/openoffice-pkgs/ubuntu intrepid main | |
| [11:27] <milos_> if you can't wait till package come in main repository | |
| [11:28] <milos_> manish_, so you add: deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/openoffice-pkgs/ubuntu intrepid main | |
| [11:28] <milos_> in your /etc/apt/sources.lst | |
| [11:28] <milos_> in your /etc/apt/sources.list | |
| [11:29] <manish_> and add this ppa in my repos | |
| [11:29] <manish_> i got the rpm version by mistake so this guy helped me out | |
| [11:29] <milos_> manish_, if it work fine than you don't need to remove it | |

| [11:32] <manish_> that line is already there in my sources list | |
| [11:32] <manish_> but by default i am getting OO 2.4 and not 3.0 | |
| [11:32] <manish_> so how do i make it work for me | |
| [11:32] <manish_> thanks for that correction | |
| [11:32] <milos_> Jaxxon, , apt-cdrom | |
| [11:33] <manish_> so wht do you suggest | |
| [11:33] <Jaxxon> tnx milos_ | |
| [11:33] <manish_> first should i remove the OO3 folder from opt directory | |
| [11:34] <milos_> manish_, if 3.0 works fine, you don't need anything to change. What do you want? Go back to 2.4? | |
| [11:34] <manish_> no i want 3.0 but it is not working | |
| [11:34] <manish_> i compiled it yesterday form RPM | |
| [11:34] <manish_> but the 2.4 version i got it from the repos | |
| [11:35] <manish_> now how do i upgrade it to 3.0 from the repos | |
| [11:35] <milos_> manish_, then remove it with synaptic. | |
| [11:35] <manish_> what the 3.0 thing | |
| [11:36] <manish_> but how would i find it in synaptic when i did not get it from synaptic | |
| [11:36] <manish_> or do you want me to remove the 2.4 one | |
| [11:36] <manish_> c let me explaing it to you | |
| === Cueball_ is now known as Cueball | |
| [11:37] <milos_> manish_, alien make .deb files and you use synaptic to manipulate deb files. You can use synaptic, apt-get or aptitude or dpkg to do same thing | |
| [11:37] <manish_> i have 2.4 installed from synaptic ok...? and it works fine .. then i installed 3.0 from the RPM yesterday and it keeps on crashing ... Now i want to have 3.0 that atleast works for me so now tell me how do i go about it | |
| [11:38] <manish_> sorry i did not understand you ... can you please be little less techi... | |
| [11:38] <manish_> so where is the deb file that alien created .. when i run it last night | |
| [11:38] <milos_> manish_, first go to synaptic and remove every openoffice package | |
| [11:38] <manish_> ok boss | |
| [11:39] <jussi01> alien! bleh!!! | |
| [11:39] <manish_> done | |
| [11:39] <jussi01> there is a ppa with oOo 3.0 in it!! | |
| [11:39] <manish_> and from the opt directory also | |
| [11:39] <manish_> ??/ | |
| [11:39] <milos_> manish_, after that add: deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/openoffice-pkgs/ubuntu intrepid main | |
| [11:39] <milos_> manish_, just forget opt | |
| [11:39] <manish_> already added | |
| [11:39] <manish_> k | |
| [11:39] <milos_> ok | |
| [11:40] <milos_> then when click reload button in synaptic | |
| [11:40] <manish_> ok | |
| [11:40] <manish_> done | |
| [11:40] <milos_> manish_, and you should be able to find openoffice 3.0 | |
| [11:40] <milos_> and install it | |
| [11:41] <manish_> in the synaptic | |
| [11:41] <milos_> yeah | |
| [11:41] <milos_> everything in synaptic | |
| [11:43] <manish_> exactly by this name... openoffice3.0 | |
| [11:43] <manish_> there isnothing like that | |

| [11:43] <erythrocyte> hi, can someone tell me if the new Powerdevil app has anything to do with Power Policy Manager from Intel and if it doesn't, are there plans to integrate it somehow into Kubuntu? | |
| [11:44] <manish_> there are openoffice3-writer openoffice-impress openoffice-math but nothing like openoffice3.0 | |
| [11:44] <erythrocyte> Intel's PPM website is at http://lesswatts.org/projects/power-policy/ | |
| [11:44] <milos_> manish_, install openoffice3-writer | |
| [11:45] <manish_> tell me the components that i need to install | |
| [11:45] <milos_> manish_, you should search for openoffice and look in Latest Version column for 3.0 | |
| [11:45] <manish_> if there is any thing without 3 tag on to it then i need not install it right....? | |
| [11:47] <milos_> manish_, it isn't simple like that | |

| [13:02] <voicu> Hi, is there a way to disable all the transparent stuff in kde4 | |
| [13:02] <voicu> for example to make the desktop opaque | |
| [13:02] <voicu> and all the widgets without translucency | |
| [13:03] <voicu> I like all those effects but they're too cpu expensive | |
| === Cueball_ is now known as Cueball | |
| [13:07] <voicu> I dunno, KDE4 is really cool but there is a tiny delay between the click and the action it does, for example kopete and the tooltip with the away message | |
| [13:07] <bdgraue> voicu: what cpu do you have, that the effects might be to heavy? i have an netbook with intel atom over here and very low cpu usage | |
| [13:08] <voicu> is this happening to anyone else? | |
| [13:08] <voicu> bdgraue: same here | |
| [13:08] <bdgraue> which one? | |
| [13:08] <voicu> i was referring to what i said just before you responded | |
| [13:08] <voicu> n270 i think | |
| [13:08] <bdgraue> which netbook? | |
| [13:09] <voicu> it's a magway something | |
| [13:09] <bdgraue> i have no problem with the effects, all smooth and fast | |
| [13:09] <bdgraue> its better then with my desctop and nvidia card | |
| [13:09] <voicu> yeah, the effects are ok but some renderings are visibly delayeed | |
| [13:10] <voicu> when i restore a window | |
| [13:10] <voicu> you can see for a split second the drawing of the borders and stuff | |
| [13:10] <voicu> on kde3 it wasn't like that | |
| [13:12] <voicu> or konversation takes about 0.5seconds to redraw itself when restoring it | |
| [13:12] <voicu> almost a second actually | |
| [13:12] <bdgraue> yes, that need some milliseconds | |
| [13:14] <voicu> also, how do i put the desktop back? | |

| [14:00] <loganWHD> all sound stops working | |
| [14:00] <loganWHD> and it is not muted | |
| [14:00] <loganWHD> all sound stops working | |
| [14:00] <loganWHD> any ideas? | |

| [14:05] <stdin> zerwas: enable backports, install the kde4 updates then disable backports | |
| [14:05] <stdin> you should only use a PPA from a trusted party, you have no clue what may be in those packages | |

| [14:37] <ghostcube> SlimeyPete, hmm yeah it worked fine until i build my new pc and here i have an intel onboard hda and before it was an soundblaster live 1024 is there any change or alsa package needed to get this working like on 8.04 | |

| [15:48] <faileas> sedeki: apt-get autoremove i think | |
| [15:49] <sedeki> yes | |
| [15:49] <sedeki> thanks! | |
| [15:49] <oim> thanks to every one | |
| [15:49] <faileas> apt-get autoclean would take care of saved packages as well | |
| [15:50] <sedeki> faileas: how does it determine what isnt being used? | |
| [15:51] <faileas> sedeki: thats what dependancy management is for | |

| [16:03] <joselito> alguien puede ayudarme | |
| [16:03] <Lokiase> Hello. In windows I can access and write to a shared folder in MyBook World Edition (after giving username and psw) . In kubuntu I can access the shared folder but not write in it. What is wrong, who can help me??? | |

| [16:04] <joselito> hola, no tengo sonido desde que instale el 8.10 | |
| [16:05] <dr_willis> Lokiase, if its NTFS filesystem you need to mountit properly with the ntfs-3g tools to have full access to it. | |
| [16:05] <_gunni_> !es joselito | |
| [16:05] <ubottu> Sorry, I don't know anything about es joselito | |
| [16:05] <faileas> Lokiase: probably incorrect permissions on the server side | |
| [16:05] <dr_willis> !ntfs-3g | |
| [16:05] <ubottu> ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions | |

| [16:05] <Lokiase> dr_willis and faileas, can you hep me step by step...? | |
| [16:05] <dr_willis> Lokiase, this could be done by installing/running the ' ntfs-config ' tool., or by manually editing the /etc/fstab | |
| [16:06] <Lokiase> dr_willes, shorter steps :p | |
| [16:06] <joselito> hola | |
| [16:06] <dr_willis> Lokiase, so i would check that url, and download/install the ntfs-config tool. | |
| [16:06] <joselito> alguien puede ayudarme? | |
| [16:06] <dr_willis> and run it. | |
| [16:06] <dr_willis> a few clicks and it should be setup | |
| [16:06] <joselito> no tengo sonido en el 8,1' | |
| [16:06] <Lokiase> dr_willis, you are going too fast for me :s | |
| [16:07] <Lokiase> its a NAS, the Mybook | |
| [16:07] <Lokiase> I can find it under samba | |
| [16:07] <Lokiase> access it | |
| [16:07] <Lokiase> but not write on it | |
| [16:07] <Lokiase> and in windows I can | |
| [16:07] <hsystem> the Now Playing widget doesnt work??? with amarok? | |
| [16:07] <dr_willis> You mean its not a USB drive? If its a samba share - then you need to set up the proper permissions then on the server I imagine. | |
| [16:07] <hsystem> using kde4 | |
| [16:07] <Lokiase> dr_willis, how?:s | |
| [16:08] <joselito> speak spanih?????? | |
| [16:08] <dr_willis> No idea. i dont have one of those drives..i would check their docs/config tools for that drive. | |
| [16:08] <Lokiase> they don't support Linux... but the NAS is linux, strange:) | |

| [16:08] <dr_willis> Lokiase, check the forums/google for info on the thing I guess. the one NDAS drive i have requires special drivers.. its not a 'samba' server.. | |
| [16:09] <dr_willis> It might support NFS if you are lucky | |
| [16:09] <Lokiase> I checked but too difficult for me | |
| [16:09] <dr_willis> Guess ya got some learning to do then. Or get lucky and find a forum/site with more detailed info. | |
| [16:09] <matisse> why does konqueror change file type handling for every "simple text" (.txt etc.) if I just want to connect .tex with kile ? | |
| [16:10] <faileas> Lokiase: then its probably using samba, and you don't have permissiond on how to use it | |
| [16:10] <dr_willis> Lokiase, its possible you may be able to manually mount the share, and give the proper user/password to it from the command line. | |

| [16:40] <_gunni_> Jaxxon: | |
| [16:41] <_gunni_> I think its because the packages in the online repos are newer, maybe if you comment all online repos it works? | |

| [16:44] <rot> Hi | |
| [16:44] <rot> how can i make my computer run as like server | |
| [16:45] <RurouniJones> That is such an open ended question you are unlikely to get an answer | |
| [16:45] <RurouniJones> Give us eamples of what you mean. No GUI? Minimal package installation? | |
| [16:46] <hsystem> Hi, question, why i cant get cpu and hdd temperature. yes i installed hddtemp lm_sensors, etc. | |
| [16:46] <RurouniJones> rot: I am guessing but this is probably what you want http://www.ubuntu.com/products/whatisubuntu/serveredition | |
| [16:46] <hsystem> and also done sensors-detect | |
| [16:47] <dougl> k - thanks :) | |
| [16:47] <rot> yeah but i have kubuntu i | |
| [16:48] <RurouniJones> If you are going without a GUI then it makes no difference | |
| [16:48] <Jaxxon> _gunni_: I have commented all the online repos, but it doesn't work too | |
| [16:48] <_gunni_> Jaxxon: No more idea on my side | |
| [16:50] <Deiz> Jaxxon: Have you done an apt-get update? | |
| [16:50] <Jaxxon> Deiz: I have added the kubuntu 8.10 cd rom to my repo, but when I run sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop it wants to download it from internet, I want to install kde from cd rom | |
| [16:51] <Deiz> Jaxxon: Do an apt-get update to sync the repo list. | |
| [16:51] <Jaxxon> Deiz: I do this, but it doesn't work too | |
| [16:51] <Deiz> What does it output? | |
| [16:52] <Jaxxon> Deiz: http://phpfi.com/383719 | |
| [16:52] <Deiz> What's the exact command you're inputting? | |
| [16:53] <Jaxxon> Deiz: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop | |
| [16:53] <Deiz> If you do "apt-get update && apt-get install kubuntu-desktop" it should work. | |
| [16:53] <Deiz> As the CD repo definitely contains kubuntu-desktop as a meta-package | |
| [16:55] <Jaxxon> Deiz: it doesn't work, the cd is kubuntu 8.10 | |

| [17:34] <PhilRod> when you say "stops working", do you mean the keys do nothing at all, or that it's stuck in numlocked/unlocked mode? | |

| [18:03] <Shaan7> jhutchins: lsmod | grep -i "eth0" doesn't give any output | |

You could also try with a newly-created user - that'll tell you whether the problem is to do with something in your local config | |

| [18:44] <PleXuS> trappist, 300Gb free ;) | |
| [18:44] <trappist> PleXuS: does /usr/bin/xulrunner-1.9 exist on your box? | |
| [18:45] <trappist> PleXuS: also does this exist: /usr/lib/xulrunner-1.9.0.4/xulrunner | |
| [18:45] <prometheus77> PhilRod: the newest version, or how do i check? | |
| [18:45] <PleXuS> no xul | |
| [18:46] <prometheus77> PhilRod: , i just switched to new user, but no change, imma logout and then try new user, maybe even restart x | |
| [18:46] <PleXuS> trappist, but in lib dir it exists | |
| [18:46] <prometheus77> PhilRod: i will be back in 10 mins please wait | |
| [18:46] <PhilRod> prometheus77: er, embarrasingly, I don't know how to check version - someone here will though | |

| [18:50] <PleXuS> trappist, any idea how to fix it? :) | |
| [18:50] <trappist> PleXuS: sudo ln -s /usr/lib/xulrunner-1.9.0.4/xulrunner /usr/bin/xulrunner-1.9 | |
| [18:51] <trappist> PleXuS: then try sudo apt-get -f install | |
| [18:52] <PleXuS> trappist, stil the same | |
| [18:52] <trappist> PleXuS: what does this say: ls -l /usr/bin/xulrunner-1.9 | |
| [18:52] <trappist> PleXuS: also, you're on intrepid, right? | |
| [18:52] <PleXuS> yes | |

| [18:53] <PleXuS> trappist, thats the result | |
| [18:53] <trappist> and it's not like red or flashing or anything, right? | |
| [18:54] <PleXuS> its red | |
| [18:54] <prometheus77> PhilRod: strangest thing, new account didn't do anything, and pressing caplock turned off the numlock key permanently :( | |
| [18:54] <PleXuS> but not flashing | |
| [18:54] <trappist> PleXuS: ok that indicates a broken symlink. did you say /usr/lib/xulrunner-1.9.0.4/xulrunner exists? | |
| [18:55] <prometheus77> PhilRod: scrollock is busted too | |
| [18:55] <PleXuS> the lib dir did exist | |
| [18:55] <PhilRod> prometheus77: I had some issues with keyboard identification in intrepid - if you're running it, you might have the same thing. I didn't investigate it much though. Someone else might be able to point you in the right direction | |
| [18:55] <trappist> PleXuS: not sure what that means exactly, but does the file I mentioned exist? | |
| [18:56] <PleXuS> trappist, only not the one you say this one do exist --> /usr/lib/xulrunner-1.9.0.4 | |
| [18:56] <prometheus77> imma restart after i delete my xorg config | |
| [18:56] <PleXuS> trappist, seems no xulrunner map inside it :s | |
| [18:56] <prometheus77> if i do not return in 20 mins something went horribly wrong | |
| [18:56] <dr_willis> prometheus77, you just need to restart the X server.. | |
| [18:56] <dr_willis> Not the system | |
| [18:57] <trappist> PleXuS: ok that's the problem then. I can't see which package is supposed to proved that file. are other files in there, like xulrunner-bin, xulrunner-stub, xpidl etc.? | |
| [18:57] <trappist> s/proved/provide/ | |
| [18:58] <PleXuS> trappist, inside this dir --> usr/lib/xulrunner-1.9.0.4 ? | |
| [18:58] <trappist> yes | |
| [19:00] <prometheus77> so i don't have an xorg.config anymore :() | |
| [19:00] <prometheus77> and um? | |
| [19:00] <trappist> prometheus77: that's ok, it's supposed to be xorg.conf | |
| [19:00] <trappist> PleXuS: ping | |
| [19:01] <prometheus77> trappist: i don't have that either | |

| [19:01] <PleXuS> those are the files in it :) | |
| [19:01] <prometheus77> to fix mah keyboard | |
| [19:01] <PleXuS> and dirs :) | |
| [19:01] <prometheus77> it didn't work | |
| [19:02] <trappist> prometheus77: yeah rm -rf isn't usually a fixy command. | |
| [19:02] <trappist> PleXuS: you're missing all kinds of stuff... gimme a second to see if I can talk apt-file into telling me which package is supposed to give you the missing stuff... | |
| [19:02] <prometheus77> i lold | |
| [19:03] <PleXuS> trappist, ok thanks ;) | |
| [19:03] <stdin> trappist, PleXuS: "xulrunner-1.9" is the package | |
| [19:04] <trappist> stdin: oh yeah, didn't think to try dpkg -L... PleXuS is somehow missing a bunch of that stuff | |
| [19:05] <PleXuS> stdin, yeah but i can't install it .. getting allways that error message | |
| [19:05] <PleXuS> dpkg -L should do the trick? :) | |
| [19:05] <trappist> PleXuS: it doesn't do any tricks ;) just lists the contents of a given package | |
| [19:06] <stdin> I'd say to try "touch /usr/bin/xulrunner-1.9", then "sudo apt-get --reinstall install xulrunner-1.9" | |
| [19:06] <stdin> and repeat for any other missing files | |
| [19:06] <PleXuS> but this happened when installing firefox 3 on KDE4 really weard | |
| [19:06] <trappist> stdin: he's already got /usr/bin/xulrunner-1.9, it's a broken symlink to a missing file in the libdir | |
| [19:07] <trappist> stdin: and the error he gets, he gets installing the xulrunner-1.9 package, but... | |
| [19:07] <stdin> trappist: that's why you use touch, it'll create an empty file | |
| [19:07] <stdin> it's just there so dpkg can remove it | |
| [19:07] <trappist> PleXuS: yeah try what stdin said, he's making more sense than I am atm :) | |

| [19:11] <voicu_> hi, i have a problem with my network connection. it's very slow (20-30kB/s) and if i type ifconfig a few times, i see that the number of dropped packets is like 200million/second | |
| [19:11] <stdin> then try the apt-get command again | |
| [19:11] <voicu_> what could do that? | |
| [19:11] <PleXuS> stdin, and then the reinstall rule? | |
| [19:12] <stdin> yeah | |
| [19:12] <trappist> voicu_: a bad cable, bad router/switch/hub, cable's too long or something, possibly a bad driver for your card, or the list is different if this is a wireless device | |

| [19:13] <trappist> I guess it wants it to be executable | |
| [19:13] <voicu_> trappist: it's a realtek wire card connected to a router through a switch, i also have a not connected wireless realtek | |
| [19:13] <voicu_> trappist: the router has no problem | |
| [19:13] <alex_21> I have a similar issue | |
| [19:13] <alex_21> I have a desperate network problem I must fix. Here is what I get from /tc/init.d/networking restart * reconfiguring network interfaces... rtnetlink no such process. What can I do about it | |
| [19:14] <trappist> voicu_: another possibility is a bad route... what does `route -n | grep ^0` say? | |

| [19:15] <voicu_> trappist, hmm 192.168.1.0 on gateway 0.0.0.0, 169.254.0.0 on 0.0.0.0 | |
| [19:15] <PleXuS> stdin, how you mean? uninstalling it? | |
| [19:15] <stdin> PleXuS: "sudo apt-get remove xulrunner-1.9" | |
| [19:16] <alex_21> 169 is a self-assigned IP | |
| [19:16] <trappist> voicu_: neither of those look right, but the 169 address is probably for your disconnected wireless card | |
| [19:16] <trappist> voicu_: try this: sudo route add default gw ip.of.your.router | |
| [19:17] <coppro> anyone have experience making compiz work well under KDE? My only issue left is that plasma gets messed up and I have to start it manually | |
| [19:17] <PleXuS> stdin, fixed ;) | |
| [19:17] <PleXuS> stdin, trappist thanks for the help!! | |
| [19:17] <trappist> coppro: I had that problem at the beginning, but it seems to have resolved itself - possibly because I installed and used fusion-icon, which is supposed to handle the compiz startup stuff for you | |
| [19:18] <stdin> I don't know why it happened, I can install firefox fine | |
| [19:18] <voicu_> trappist: i did that but there was another item i didn | |
| [19:18] <trappist> coppro: that is, I'm starting compiz by adding fusion-icon to my kde startup | |
| [19:18] <coppro> trappist: oh. Didn't know about that one... let's see | |
| [19:18] <PleXuS> stdin, it happend with upgrading | |
| === paulo is now known as Mossad-ES | |
| [19:18] <coppro> currently, I have a simple shell script | |
| [19:18] <PleXuS> stdin, but i did used the gui maybe thats the problem :) | |
| [19:18] <voicu_> trappist: i didn't see at first: destination 0.0.0.0 through 192.168.1.1, which is ok, rihgt? | |
| [19:18] <trappist> coppro: yeah that's how I started, and my plasma would crash | |
| [19:19] <coppro> well, it doesn't crash, it just gets messed up | |
| [19:19] <trappist> voicu_: if that's the ip of your router, yeah | |
| [19:19] <stdin> PleXuS: shouldn't really matter, it just uses apt in the background | |
| [19:19] <voicu_> trappist: then what other software problem can it be? i'm kinda sure the cables/switches are ok | |
| [19:19] <trappist> voicu_: I wonder if that other one's not interfering, though - I dunno why you'd have two for 0.0.0.0 | |
| [19:20] <coppro> also, while I'm here, how do I change the umask for KDE? | |
| [19:20] <PleXuS> stdin, yeah i known :) do you maybe known how to make tunnel network device ? | |
| [19:20] <PleXuS> stdin, trying to access it with vbox as host interface but i can't ping it from inside my vbox :s | |
| [19:21] <PleXuS> i maybe did something wrong :s | |
| [19:21] <voicu_> trappist: how could the wireless card interfere, it's not even enabled | |
| [19:22] <stdin> PleXuS: I would think VirtualBox would take care of that. maybe someone in #vbox knows if you need to do it manually | |
| [19:22] <DeviantPeer> Hi all. | |
| [19:22] <voicu_> trappist: i did an ifdown, ifup and now i have a single gw for 0.0.0.0 which is the router | |
| [19:22] <voicu_> trappist: the packets still flow like crazy | |
| [19:23] <DeviantPeer> I trying to mount a udf DVD, but the mount point allways get's a 000 permissions, rendering anyone (apart from root) unable to access the directory | |
| [19:23] <trappist> voicu_: the theory was that the presence of the card added a second default route that maybe confused things, but if getting rid of it doesn't help, the theory was wrong :) | |
| [19:24] <voicu_> trappist: hmm, then i'll do some permutations on the wires and see what happens :P | |
| [19:24] <Roland123> how to make konsole transparent? | |
| [19:25] <DeviantPeer> anyone? | |
| [19:25] <coppro> Roaldn123: if you have transparency on, you should be able to right-click the title bar and adjust the opacity | |
| [19:25] <coppro> DeviantPeer: try chmodding the directory you mount to | |
| [19:25] <coppro> also, make sure the proper mount option is set (I think you want ro | |
| [19:26] <stdin> DeviantPeer: mount /device /place -o umask=000 | |
| [19:26] <voicu_> trappist: i unplugged the wire and the card still has many dropped packets | |
| [19:26] <DeviantPeer> coppro: first thing I tried. but "chmod: changing permissions of `Pictures/': Read-only file system" | |
| [19:26] <voicu_> trappist: that should mean it's only a software problem | |
| [19:26] <DeviantPeer> stdin: also tried that. didn't work... :( | |
| [19:26] <voicu_> trappist: it can | |
| [19:26] <coppro> DeviantPeer: umount it, then change, the remount. And make sure you have ro in fstab or -o ro on the mount command | |
| [19:27] <stdin> DeviantPeer: what about "-o uid=$(id -u)" ? | |
| [19:27] <DeviantPeer> coppro: trying with mount (no change to fstab) | |
| [19:27] <DeviantPeer> stdin: I'm trying it now. | |
| [19:27] <voicu_> trappist: damn keyboard... any other ideas? :D | |
| [19:28] <Roland123> coppro: thnx, i was looking from a tottaly wrong place | |
| [19:29] <voicu_> trappist: also, i didn't see any problems when in windows so that should rule out a hardware issue | |
| [19:29] <psaiken> hey | |
| [19:29] <DeviantPeer> stdin: it doesn't work... | |
| [19:29] <trappist> voicu_: well, sometimes a reboot actually does help :) if you have a wireless router, you might try firing up your wireless card to see if it has the same problem. if it does, I dunno what to tell you, but if it doesn't, you might try to dig up another ethernet card and see how it behaves. | |
| [19:30] <stdin> DeviantPeer: how are you mounting it? | |
| [19:30] <trappist> voicu_: that is to say I think the two most likely candidates are the card itself or the realtek drivers | |
| [19:30] <trappist> voicu_: oh, also run dmesg to see if there's any interesting info in there | |
| [19:30] <DeviantPeer> stdin: "sudo mount -o ro -o gid=mtavares /dev/dvd -o umask=000 cdrom0/" | |
| [19:31] <DeviantPeer> stdin: cwd = /media | |
| [19:31] <stdin> DeviantPeer: why not just "mount /media/cdrom0", you shouldn't need sudo to mount it | |
| [19:31] <coppro> trappist: nope, doesn't work. Plasma does the same thing, which is that my panel goes dark, except the K menu was replaced by a device manager | |
| [19:32] <coppro> currently, I have a script: compiz & sleep 5; killall plasma; plasma; | |
| [19:32] <DeviantPeer> stdin: because I'm trying to pass parameter to the mount, so I think I need to be root. | |
| [19:32] <voicu_> trappist: i rebooted a few times since it worked before (i reinstalled the system since then). in dmesg the only network related error is "r8169: eth0: no ipv6 routers present" | |
| [19:32] <DeviantPeer> stdin: let me try without root | |
| [19:32] <stdin> DeviantPeer: gid is wrong, it needs to be a number | |
| [19:32] <DeviantPeer> stdin: "mount: only root can do that" | |
| [19:33] <Roland123> kacpid is using a lot of cpu.. is it safe to kill it? | |
| [19:33] <voicu_> trappist: how do i activate the wireless card? if it's adriver issue there is not much i can do, right? | |
| [19:33] <DeviantPeer> stdin: ahhh.. could be that, yes.. let me try | |
| [19:33] <stdin> DeviantPeer: something like "sudo mount -o ro,gid=$(id -g),umask=000 cdrom0" | |

| [20:01] <kubuntu_> and what do i do there | |
| [20:01] <Lupus-SLE> There's a button that says "enable desktop effects" or something like that | |
| [20:02] <Lupus-SLE> You'll see it, trust me | |
| [20:02] <kubuntu_> it is enabled | |

| [20:05] <brad_> Hi I have a quick question that will hopefully be easy to fix | |
| [20:05] <Lupus-SLE> voicu: Last time that one gave me some useful feedback but this time I think... I think it works... | |
| [20:05] <brad_> I'm on Kubuntu 8.10 and for some reason my monitors power saving function keeps messing up | |
| [20:05] <Lupus-SLE> brad_: You never need to ask to ask in this sort of channel, we're here to help you, ask and you will be helped. | |
| [20:06] <brad_> that is to say the screen won't turn off sometimes | |
| [20:06] <Lupus-SLE> brad_: Is this a new problem? | |
| [20:06] <kubuntu_> cany find anything | |
| [20:06] <brad_> so then I have to go to the powersettings (on the display menu) and set it again, and then it works | |
| [20:06] <kubuntu_> cant find anything | |
| [20:06] <Lupus-SLE> kubuntu_: Hmm... | |
| [20:06] <brad_> and I mean it still shows it as being set, but sometimes the monitor doesn't turn off all day/night etc | |
| [20:06] <Lupus-SLE> kubuntu_: Not to patronise you, but have you googled for this? | |
| [20:06] <brad_> I'm wondering if something is waking it? | |
| [20:06] <kubuntu_> yes | |
| [20:07] <brad_> ummmm, I would say under two weeks but I dont know just when it started | |
| [20:07] <Lupus-SLE> There may be additional packages you need to install, unfortunatly I'm not an expert on compiz | |
| [20:07] <kubuntu_> cant fin anything that shows me hoe to enable | |
| [20:07] <brad_> I was wondering if dragon media player was keeping it awake after videos ended, but that program has no preferences I can find, and that isnt the only time it happens | |
| [20:07] <kubuntu_> i heavent been using linux for some years | |
| [20:07] <brad_> because it may be that when I see it, something has just woken it up and I dont know what is waking it up, but I dont know where those settings are either | |
| [20:08] <Lupus-SLE> brad_: The Dragon player disapointed me, it has such an awesome icon but the player itself is very... basic, shall we say | |
| [20:08] <brad_> yeah I can go back to kaffeine and see if that helps but I really dont think thats the problem cause thats not the only time it happens | |
| [20:08] <brad_> unless thats one of many things keeping it awake | |
| [20:08] <Lupus-SLE> brad_: Do you live near a herd of elephants? | |
| [20:09] <Lupus-SLE> Or have a very sensitive mouse? | |
| [20:09] <brad_> lol neither | |
| [20:09] <Lupus-SLE> Hmm... | |
| [20:09] <brad_> Iv'e had the same mouse for a very long time | |
| [20:09] <brad_> I mean sometimes if I'm at the desk I accidentally wake it up but I know that i've done it | |
| [20:09] <brad_> Ir eally think its not turning off at all | |
| [20:09] <brad_> then I have to go to the display settings, and set it again | |
| [20:09] <Lupus-SLE> brad_: Occams razor and all... but could you not just turn the screen off when you leave your PC? :P | |
| [20:09] <kubuntu_> well i guess i will be waiting with my compiz | |
| [20:09] <kubuntu_> no luck | |
| [20:10] <brad_> actually, I have a monitor I've had foreverI got at a surplus sale that the power button doesnt work on | |
| [20:10] <brad_> so I actually can't | |
| [20:10] <brad_> beyond which, I regularly go to sleep with a show or whatever playing on the computer | |
| [20:10] <Lupus-SLE> kubuntu_: I'll have a fetch for you, give me a minute | |
| [20:10] <kubuntu_> thx | |
| [20:11] <BluesKaj> there are severalm timed apps that don't start properly such as the screensdaver. It has to be reset every session , bloody PITA | |
| [20:11] <brad_> I previously had it set to suspend at a half hour and had the other power saving settings off, then I turned all three on 10 minutes apart in order (hoping at least one would catch it) and that didnt help either | |

| [20:15] <Lupus-SLE> kubuntu_: That's for Ubuntu, but it'll be extremely similar and the packages you need will be almost identical | |
| [20:16] <Lupus-SLE> So that should get you your cube | |

| [20:57] <ubuntu_> I need to create a boot partition and move my /boot files to the new /boot partition. | |
| [20:57] <ubuntu_> Not sure how to. | |
| [20:57] <ubuntu_> the /boot needs to be at the front. | |
| [20:57] <Tm_T> ubuntu_: hmm, you have read those thru? | |
| [20:57] <ubuntu_> Tm_T, no, because I know that's not it. | |
| [20:57] <Tm_T> ok then | |
| [20:57] <ubuntu_> i know what it's gonna say, and that wouldn't fix my problem. | |
| [21:08] <dr_willis> Why does boot need to be at the front? thats not been a limit for ages.. except on old machines.. | |
| [21:08] <ubuntu_> *cough* | |
| [21:08] <dr_willis> it will pay to read through the grub manual. what you want to do is not too hard to do. | |
| [21:08] <ubuntu_> well, i was more interested in how i was going to move my /boot files | |
| [21:09] <ubuntu_> but i dont care, i just repartitioned my hd. >.> no harm done, nothing good on windows anyway. | |
| [21:09] <dr_willis> make a new partition at the start of the drive. copy them over. mount it as /boot | |
| [21:09] <ubuntu_> im good. | |
| [21:09] <dr_willis> if you have the '1024' cylinder limit problem.. then you may want to use fdisk to make the partition, to be sure its under the 1024 cylinder. | |

| [22:13] <mrksbrd> ok who is good with figuring out cups?.....i'm @ my wits end | |

| [23:22] <e-head> yeah. That's weird, cause this is the second one i've tried. | |
| [23:22] <astromme> It probably means a bad burn, bad drive, or that your drive can't handle the media correctly | |
| [23:23] <e-head> I'm starting to think maybe it's the controller, not the drive. | |
| [23:23] <astromme> Where in the install process do you get the errors? | |

| [23:23] <e-head> I did a "check CD" a second ago and it checked out fine. | |

| [23:24] <szrhawaii> what are you trying to do | |
| [23:24] <e-head> This is the second DVD drive I've tried too. I'm really startin to think maybe the controller is flaky. | |
| [23:24] <e-head> Install Kubuntu. | |
| [23:24] <e-head> I should probably check the connection. | |
| [23:24] <szrhawaii> from a live cd | |

| [23:25] <e-head> So, I thought it was just my graphics card. I tried rebooting and doing a "safe graphics mode" install, but then I started getting these I/O errors. | |
| [23:25] <e-head> Man, I'm just not having any luck. | |
| === _technikk is now known as technikk | |
| [23:25] <e-head> ;) | |
| [23:26] <astromme> szrhawaii: neither of those do. There is a kicker from opensuse maybe (they first used it in 3.5) but the current iteration is kde4 | |
| [23:26] <turcko> Hi.... a name for graphical aplication to manage system services??? | |
| [23:26] <astromme> e-head: sorry to hear that =/. Are you using flaky cds? | |
| [23:26] <szrhawaii> do you know one that does astromme | |
| [23:27] <e-head> No. It checked out fine (md5sum). | |
| [23:27] <e-head> This is the second one I burned. | |
| [23:27] <szrhawaii> e-head dit speedd you burn the .iso at the righ | |
| [23:27] <astromme> szrhawii: what distro are you using? There was a gentoo ebuild iirc but that was years ago | |
| [23:27] <szrhawaii> did you burn the iso at the right speed | |
| [23:27] <Fieldy> hello, has anyone installed kde4 and found when they log in, you get a black screen, the mouse pointer, and nothing else? this kde4 install has worked fine for a long time until today. | |
| [23:27] <e-head> Kubuntu said it was all good (I did the "check CD option" after booting) | |
| [23:27] <szrhawaii> i have hardy | |
| [23:28] <Lupus-SLE> This may be a rediculous question... but for some reason kmix and knetworkmanager both appear on startup on intrepid... I don't want them to start... how do I stop this? | |
| [23:28] <szrhawaii> e-head did you do a 50/50 partition or full | |
| [23:28] <astromme> e-head: Have you tried just installing without the check cd? I found that if I had flaky drives/controllers, they would often fail if I first did a cd media check but work (probably because they were not being used as much or for as long) if I just went straight to the install | |
| [23:28] <e-head> I'm going to try that now. | |
| [23:29] <astromme> Lupus-SLE: You should be able to disable those in System Settings -> Advanced -> Session Manager -> Apps to be excluded from sessions | |
| [23:29] <e-head> Hey, do you guys know if it's possible to bypass the CD drive altogether? I have an old debian system on here already. I have 2 HD's in the computer, and I was going to set up a dual boot system. | |
| [23:30] <astromme> e-head: Yes, it's possible to put the installer image in your /boot and boot to it | |
| [23:30] <e-head> Can I just d/l all the files somehow and do a chroot and start the installatin? | |
| [23:30] <astromme> I don't remember offhand where the docs are for that | |
| [23:30] <astromme> e-head: it requires that you have a working wired net though | |
| [23:30] <e-head> Ahh... add an entry into my grub menu.1st or something? | |
| [23:30] <e-head> Yeah, I do. | |
| [23:30] <e-head> I'll see if I can find something on it. | |
| [23:30] <szrhawaii> hey atromme do you also know what the lib files for the kdesktop drawing feature for the background setting | |
| [23:31] <epimeth> How do I list network folders in the "open folder" dialog? | |
| [23:31] <epimeth> kde4.2 | |
| [23:31] <epimeth> erm | |
| [23:31] <epimeth> .1 | |
| [23:31] <epimeth> heh | |
| [23:31] <epimeth> wishful thinking | |
| [23:31] <astromme> szrhawaii: Sorry, no idea | |
| [23:31] <astromme> epimeth: network:// ? | |
| [23:31] <szrhawaii> ok thanks anyways | |
| [23:31] <VistaUser> szrhawaii silly question u from hawaii? | |
| [23:32] <szrhawaii> yeah | |

| [23:32] <szrhawaii> cool i lived in makakilo before | |
| [23:32] <VistaUser> cool | |
| [23:32] <astromme> epimeth: Try putting the user in it. I.E. fish://astromme@network-server/path/to/folder | |
| === antonio__ is now known as estres | |
| [23:33] <szrhawaii> so can anyone tell me if its worth upgrading to kde 4 yet | |
| [23:33] <epimeth> astromme, but I want a link to it on the left bar of the "open folder" dialog, like there was in kde3.... | |
| [23:33] <VistaUser> people say its to unstable | |
| [23:33] <VistaUser> if i were u stick with 4.1.3 | |
| [23:33] <szrhawaii> yeah ive been hearing a lot of that | |
| [23:33] <estres> szrhawaii | |
| [23:34] <dozer> hi - I've just upgraded to kubuntu 8.10 and am having a couple of teathing problems | |
| [23:34] <astromme> Yeah, what you can do is you can drag the any folder to that bar. Or, drag a folder, then right click it on the bar, hit properties and change the location | |
| [23:34] <szrhawaii> whats up estres | |
| [23:34] <estres> if you want to work in something nice | |
| [23:34] <estres> this enviroment is reallylooking nice | |
| [23:34] <estres> but is not | |
| [23:34] <VistaUser> which KDE4??? | |
| [23:34] <astromme> dozer: Alright, anything we can help with? | |
| [23:34] <estres> working good at all | |
| [23:34] <szrhawaii> i got 3.5 with some 4.1 add ins but not the full upgrade | |
| [23:34] <e-head> hey, I'm making some progree here. | |
| [23:34] <estres> if make sometunning to your deskto | |
| [23:35] <estres> desktop | |
| [23:35] <szrhawaii> i am slowly adding some features here and there | |
| [23:35] <e-head> while I was chatting it rebooted and it looks like X is starting up. | |
| [23:35] <estres> you can brokit | |
| [23:35] <estres> broke it | |
| [23:35] <szrhawaii> who me estres | |
| [23:35] <e-head> I take it it automatically went into the demo/live CD thing. Looks good. Looks sharp! This is promising. ;) | |
| [23:35] <epimeth> "malformed URL" :-( | |
| [23:35] <astromme> e-head: Alright, if that works, great | |
| [23:35] <epimeth> I'm thinking that the dialog might not be hooked into kio? | |
| [23:36] <estres> and will havetodelete /home/user/.kde to get back in control of it | |
| [23:36] <estres> losing allyou changes | |
| [23:36] <dozer> astromme - the two most anoying things are a) no irc in kopete, and b) my TV (connected through a VGA cable to my laptop) flashes off every 20 sec or so for a moment | |
| [23:36] <e-head> what's the login/password? | |
| [23:36] <astromme> epimeth: give me the url you're trying | |
| [23:36] <epimeth> remote:// | |
| [23:36] <e-head> I wasn't paying attention. | |
| [23:36] <epimeth> :-) | |
| [23:36] <epimeth> I dragged it in, like you said :-) | |
| [23:36] <astromme> e-head: ubuntu and no password? | |
| [23:36] <epimeth> I tried that myself, too | |
| [23:36] <e-head> thanks | |
| [23:36] <szrhawaii> yeah but i only download the extra features not the main base files | |
| [23:36] <epimeth> remote:/ actually... remote:// just doesn't show anything | |
| [23:36] <VistaUser> estress u on KDE4? | |
| [23:36] <estres> yes | |
| [23:37] <astromme> dozer: For the second, go to System Settings -> Advanced -> Service Manager and uncheck "Detecting Montior (XRANDR) Changes" | |
| [23:37] <estres> I am ok KDE 4.1 | |
| [23:37] <szrhawaii> i accidentally messed up and did that before though estres | |
| [23:37] <VistaUser> is it worth the upgrade? | |
| [23:37] <szrhawaii> but i learned which ones work and which ones dont | |
| [23:37] <astromme> epimeth: is this a kde dialog or a gnome one? | |
| [23:37] <e-head> it kicks me right back to the login menu. it looks like it wants to start up or something, then kicks me right back. | |
| [23:37] <epimeth> I'm pretty much used to kde4.1, myself. the only thing I really miss right now is the quicklaunch, but thats coming soon so it doesn't bother me. I also had a problem with flickering, but the xrandr solution worked for me | |
| [23:37] <Lupus-SLE> astromme: Is that is? | |
| [23:37] <epimeth> astromme: kde | |
| [23:38] <szrhawaii> i like 3.5 i got mine running smoothly finally again | |
| [23:38] <estres> well Itoldyou guys is slower than pastversions but it looks nice | |
| [23:38] <astromme> Lupus-SLE: What? | |
| [23:38] <dozer> astromme: done - waiting to see if that's fixed it... | |
| [23:38] <e-head> damn. I'm getting an "unable to read fragment cache block" and "page, block" now. Geez! It's just not my night. ;) | |
| [23:38] <astromme> dozer: you may have to restart x | |
| [23:38] <dozer> yuo, i think so | |
| [23:38] <dozer> back in a sec | |
| [23:39] <astromme> epimeth: do you want a specific folder or just the network in general? | |
| [23:39] <estres> any one knows theport of the other chat rooms in spanish? | |
| [23:39] <VistaUser> can u get to KDE 4 by commands in terminal? | |
| [23:39] <astromme> e-head: I might have some links for you. Give me a moment | |
| [23:39] <estres> like #ubuntu-es? | |
| [23:39] <astromme> VistaUser: I dont' understand | |
| [23:39] <epimeth> astromme: the entire network, yes. I want to add it to the left side of the "open" dialog | |
| [23:39] <estres> or like kubuntu-es | |
| [23:40] <estres> #kubuntu-es | |
| [23:40] <szrhawaii> it might be | |
| [23:40] <epimeth> astromme: although in this specific case, I want to add a top level item to quanta, my home directory at work | |
| [23:40] <astromme> And it's not there already? I have a "Network" location on the left of my open dialogues | |
| [23:40] <VistaUser> ist KDE an desktop enviroment? how do i get to it? | |
| [23:40] <astromme> VistaUser: It's an option when you login. "Session Type" or something like that | |
| [23:40] <VistaUser> ok ty | |
| [23:41] <szrhawaii> theres a key stroke for it to | |
| [23:41] <szrhawaii> just forgot what it was | |
| [23:41] <estres> #ubuntu-es | |
| [23:41] <astromme> epimeth: Oh, are you using kde4 or kde3? | |
| [23:41] <VistaUser> ok | |
| [23:42] <epimeth> 4.2 | |
| [23:42] <loganWHD> so what u guys using to print to pdf in 8.10 | |
| [23:42] <epimeth> garr | |
| [23:42] <epimeth> 4.1 | |
| [23:42] <loganWHD> i have cups installed but the blame thing doesnt put the files anywhere i can find | |
| [23:42] <e-head> I'm playing hard ball with it now | |
| [23:43] <astromme> estres: Hmm... I can't find it atm. Something along the lines of "Ubuntu network install from grub" | |
| [23:45] <estres> I just installed 8.10 and the KDE 4.1 cameupwith it | |
| [23:45] <epimeth> estres: yes, it did :-) | |
| [23:46] <astromme> loganWHD: You can just do it from the standard print dialog | |
| [23:46] <VistaUser> how do u upgrade 4.1 to 4.2? | |
| [23:46] <astromme> loganWHD: cups might put it to ~/PDF | |
| [23:46] <loganWHD> hrmm, i dont think so astromme unless i am missing it | |
| [23:47] <loganWHD> yah i created a PDF dir but nothing goes there | |
| === genii-test is now known as genii-around | |
| [23:47] <estres> I do not recomend to install beta versions | |
| [23:47] <astromme> If you're in a gnome app (i.e. firefox) it won't have the kde pdf printer | |
| [23:47] <epimeth> astromme: you given up on me? P:-) | |
| [23:47] <rrodrigues> hi | |
| [23:47] <rrodrigues> hi pt | |
| [23:47] <astromme> epimeth: Still searching, had to use the restroom | |
| [23:47] <loganWHD> no just standard files want to print | |
| [23:48] <VistaUser> were i get KDE beta 4.2 or w/e | |
| [23:48] <rrodrigues> asterisk anyone using in kubuntu? | |
| [23:48] <epimeth> VistaUser: the packages aren't in the repository yet... its will be available within the month. However, you can install the nightlies using neon, but I wouldn't suggest it just yet | |
| [23:48] <VistaUser> ok ty | |
| [23:48] <astromme> loganWHD: What application? | |
| [23:49] <loganWHD> like openoffice | |
| === szrhawaii_ is now known as szrhawaii | |
| [23:49] <szrhawaii> like kpdf | |
| [23:50] <szrhawaii> #kbfx | |
| === genii-test is now known as genii-around | |
| [23:50] <astromme> loganWHD: openoffice is also gtk-based. (i.e. not using kde print system) | |
| [23:50] <e-head> Hey, do you guys know of a program I can use on Windows to check the md5sum text file in the root of the CD? | |
| [23:50] <astromme> loganWHD: Sorry =/. It's not in the cups realm and I don't know much about cups pdf printing. Mine (in the old days) went to ~/PDF | |
| [23:51] <loganWHD> ok | |
| [23:51] <loganWHD> thnaks | |
| [23:51] <Dillizar> hi | |
| [23:51] <dr_willis> e-head, there are md5sum tools for windows.. check the various windows download sites/google.. i dont rember the names of any.. one added a 'check md5sum contest menu item' | |
| [23:51] <Dillizar> does anybody use Opera?? | |
| [23:51] <szrhawaii> i thought thats where they always go unless they specify differently astromme | |
| [23:52] <VistaUser> is there another web browser faster than firefox? | |
| [23:52] <epimeth> VistaUser: if you do want it anyway, http://kubuntuforums.net/forums/index.php?action=printpage;topic=3099334.0 | |
| [23:52] <epimeth> VistaUser: yea, chrome... but its not available for mac and linux yet, tho you could probably install it with wine | |
| [23:52] <szrhawaii> konqueror works fine for kde | |
| [23:52] <epimeth> I think firefox is faster than konqui | |
| [23:52] <Dillizar> epimeth, nope cant with wine :P | |
| [23:53] <epimeth> awww | |
| [23:53] <szrhawaii> i like both | |
| [23:53] <epimeth> :-( | |
| [23:53] <epimeth> pooh | |
| [23:53] <VistaUser> i want chrome so badly | |
| [23:53] <epimeth> szrhawaii: its a personal choice :-) | |
| [23:53] <szrhawaii> i use firefox mostly and it is pretty quick | |
| [23:53] <coppro> firefox is fine | |
| [23:53] <Dillizar> VistaUser, they say safari is the fastest | |
| [23:53] <coppro> I can't wait for the new JS engine | |
| [23:53] <epimeth> VistaUser: yea, I'm waiting very impatient | |
| [23:53] <dr_willis> I dont see much use for chrome. :) i just make firefox fullscreen... | |
| [23:53] <VistaUser> firefox is more faster because each tab is a new process | |
| [23:53] <szrhawaii> i think it might just be your connection rather tan you browser | |
| [23:54] <epimeth> dr_willis: its JS engine is muuuuch faster and doesn't leak | |
| [23:54] <VistaUser> if a tab laggs or close the browser doesnt | |
| [23:54] <astromme> epimeth: Aha! Check out https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromLinux midway down the page at "Alternate CD Alternate Method" | |
| [23:54] <dr_willis> I normally disable JS. :P | |
| [23:54] <coppro> I do run noscript | |
| [23:54] <coppro> but there's tons of pages that need it | |
| [23:54] <dr_willis> I have so many FF extensions - i cant hardly surf without them | |
| [23:54] <dr_willis> coppro, yep. sadly | |
| [23:54] <astromme> Personally I use konqueror (x86-64) but that's because I don't need flash nor gmail (imap in kontact ftw) and so konq is nice and lean and fast | |
| [23:55] <astromme> flash does work in konq... sometimes. Sometimes it's sketchy | |
| [23:55] * dr_willis wonders how one benchmarks these browsers to determine what ones are 'fast' | |
| [23:55] <VistaUser> i cant wait till ubuntu or w/e is supported with all my favorite apps | |
| [23:55] <epimeth> astromme: you sure that link was meant for me? | |
| [23:55] <szrhawaii> yeah thats true astromme | |
| [23:55] <astromme> VistaUser: FIrefox has a new *thread* for each tab. Chrome has a new *process* for each tab | |
| [23:55] <VistaUser> oo ok | |
| [23:56] <astromme> epimeth: Possibly not. There are two names with e here.. hmm | |
| [23:56] <VistaUser> ooo limewire still works :) | |
| [23:56] <szrhawaii> haha you still use that | |
| [23:56] <VistaUser> yes y? | |
| [23:56] <VistaUser> is there something better? | |
| [23:56] <szrhawaii> thats probably why your comp is slow | |
| [23:56] * Secutor is away: Gone away for now. | |
| [23:56] <astromme> e-head: Aha! Check out https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromLinux midway down the page at "Alternate CD Alternate Method" | |
| [23:56] <VistaUser> what do u use? | |
| [23:56] <szrhawaii> i use torrents | |
| [23:57] <astromme> epimith: Can you again describe to me where you are and what you want working that isn't with the network folders? | |
| [23:57] <VistaUser> lol i cant do that for songs that i like on our radio station | |
| [23:57] <szrhawaii> i do it for those all the time | |
| [23:57] <szrhawaii> and all the movies and programs | |
| [23:57] <VistaUser> what torrent download do u use? | |
| [23:58] <szrhawaii> i use the k torrent but you go to websites to download them | |
| [23:58] <VistaUser> ooo sounds like a hassel to find a song | |
| [23:58] <szrhawaii> like mininova.org, piratebay.org | |
| [23:58] <VistaUser> oo | |
| [23:58] <VistaUser> i use torrents for movie basacilly | |
| [23:59] <VistaUser> i heard frostwire is ok | |

| [23:59] <szrhawaii> its the same as limewire | |
| [23:59] <dr_willis> Frostwire and such are so... 2006 | |
| [23:59] <dr_willis> :) | |
| [23:59] <VistaUser> i know but its blue :) | |
| [23:59] <szrhawaii> haha | |
| [23:59] <epimeth> astromme: do you have quanta installed? | |
| [23:59] <szrhawaii> good difference | |
