| [00:43] <ray1claw> hello, i have a problem and need help: i installed kubuntu-full onto my ubuntu laptop (asus k53ta - llano a6, radeon 6650m), i reboot, and now i have no display.. it all goes black, and i can hear the login sounds though. Anyone? | |
| [00:44] <lolcat> ray1claw: Can you get a terminal up? | |
| [00:44] <designbybeck> ray1claw: can you press CTRL + ALT + F2 | |
| [00:45] <designbybeck> i can't login after a new clean install | |
| [00:45] <ray1claw> not on normal boot.. but i can do it in recovery mode | |
| [00:45] <ray1claw> lolcat, designbybeck ^ | |
| [00:46] <designbybeck> is yours 64bit ray1claw? | |
| [00:47] <ray1claw> designbybeck, yep | |
| [00:47] <designbybeck> although come to think of it i had ubuntu 64 bit and added kubuntu-desktop | |
| [00:48] <designbybeck> could go log into either desktop environment | |
| [00:48] <ray1claw> designbybeck, i think you can get through 'cuz you got a fresh install, just go into terminal from recovery, remove the commenting on the partner repos in sources.list, and then instal fglrx.. its worked for me before | |
| [00:48] <ray1claw> its the same with ubuntu.. | |
| [00:48] <designbybeck> hmmmm | |
| [00:49] <designbybeck> let me try that ray | |
| [00:49] <ray1claw> lolcat, any ideas? | |
| [00:50] <designbybeck> it will not let me login anyway ray1claw | |
| [00:50] <designbybeck> i can pull up a terminal but it doesn' take my install | |
| [00:50] <ray1claw> are you on wifi? | |
| [00:51] <lolcat> ray1claw: Just choose gdm as your login manager again? | |
| [00:51] <ray1claw> lolcat, i think i only have lightdm and kdm installed.. and lightdm is default i think | |
| [00:52] <ray1claw> designbybeck, if ur on wifi.. i dont think it'll let u access the net.. you gotta push a cable in | |
| [00:52] <designbybeck> i am on cable | |
| [00:52] <designbybeck> but this is the first restart from installing | |
| [00:53] <ray1claw> designbybeck, you gotta first open up /etc/apt/sources.list in nano or something.. then uncomment the partner part.. then install fglrx | |
| [00:53] <designbybeck> i can't log in any way | |
| [00:53] <ray1claw> designbybeck, last comment http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-1859289.html | |
| [00:53] <designbybeck> gui or cli | |
| [00:53] <ray1claw> designbybeck, not even though recovery mode? | |
| [00:54] <ray1claw> booting into recovery and going into netroot? | |
| [00:54] <ray1claw> lolcat, i have the cli in recovery open, help me if you can please | |
| [00:54] <designbybeck> how do i get to recovery mode? | |
| [00:55] <ray1claw> designbybeck, reboot, then keep shift pressed.. grub menu will pop up, choose reovery there | |
| [00:55] <designbybeck> ray1claw: i had recovery mode with ubuntu | |
| [00:58] <designbybeck> ray1claw: i got to recovery menu | |
| [00:59] <ray1claw> designbybeck, read what i wrote above | |
| [00:59] <designbybeck> i am going through it | |
| [01:03] <designbybeck> well i still can login with sudo or anything therefore i don't have root and i can't ediut that file ray1claw | |
| [01:03] <designbybeck> it recovery mode it shows i'm root | |
| [01:04] <designbybeck> ooh wait a sec | |
| [01:05] <designbybeck> i might be on to soemthing | |
| [01:05] <designbybeck> *face palm* | |
| [01:05] <designbybeck> i normally don't use my first name whne doing an install... this time it looks like i did, and it defaulted to that as my username | |
| [01:06] <designbybeck> :) well i solved my problem thatnks ray1claw... now let's figure yours out | |
| [01:09] <ray1claw> designbybeck, nice | |
| [01:13] <designbybeck> ray1claw: your problems seems to be along the same lines | |
| [01:13] <designbybeck> or at least whatwe thought mine was.... the ati drivers | |
| [01:20] <ray1claw> designbybeck, yep they are, the only kicker is, i already got fglrx installed fine and running for me for a couple of days | |
| [01:21] <designbybeck> maybe an update? or rollback? | |
| [01:24] <ray1claw> designbybeck, installed kubuntu-full and rebooted just before all hell broke loose | |

| [05:34] <nafg> arshinator: What kind of network are they on? | |
| [05:35] <arshinator> nafg: there is no network as such.....i have just connected both of them using an ethernet (crossover) cable | |
| [05:36] <nafg> So I think you have to (a) give both of them a static ip | |
| [05:37] <arshinator> and then? | |
| [05:37] <nafg> Then (b) I think one should have an ssh or ftp server installed | |
| [05:37] <arshinator> well i just have some movies in my desktop which i want to transfer to my laptop | |
| [05:38] <nafg> I can't guarantee there isn't a better way, but try sudo apt-get install openssh-server on one, then open fish:<ip address> in dolphin. | |

| [12:29] <designbybeck> krunner? is the default in Kubuntu? | |
| [12:30] <hateball> Yes | |
| [12:30] <designbybeck> I was use to the super/meta key in ubuntu unity to open its launcher | |
| [12:30] <designbybeck> but I can't set just the metaa key to luanch, it wants at least 2 keystrokes | |
| [12:31] <Tm_T> designbybeck: yup, KDE shortcuts are like that, accelerator + key (and combination of multiple of both) | |
| [12:31] <designbybeck> hmmm, no way to change that Tm_T? | |
| [12:32] <Tm_T> designbybeck: no sensible way, no as far as I know | |
| [12:32] <designbybeck> i put it at meta+spacebar, like GnomeDO and Synapse | |
| [12:32] <designbybeck> thank your for your feedback Tm_T | |
| [12:32] <designbybeck> I'm new to Kubuntu | |
| [12:32] <Tm_T> np (: | |
| [12:32] <hateball> by default, if you're on the plasma desktop, ESC will bring up krunner | |
| [12:32] <designbybeck> but finally divingi into all the advanced configurations | |
| [12:33] <hateball> but... then you'd have to minimize all windows before, requiring a two-key shortcut :p | |

| [14:12] <Kurdistan> designbybeck, no my friend. I buyed this bluetooth usb. | |
| [14:12] <designbybeck> so the laptop doesn't have one built in, you are using an external USB bluetooth adapter | |

| [14:22] <designbybeck> have you had it working before | |
| [14:22] <BluesKaj> I just use a usb for transferring files , but I haven't been able to make the moto app work on kubuntu , so i have to do it on windows | |

| [14:31] <orated> firestarter and gufw are on GTK. I don't find Guarddog nowadays which used to be for KDE | |
| [14:31] <BluesKaj> orated, just typeman ufw in the terminal , to check the commands etc | |

| [15:11] <jimmy51_> (i think during an update it uninstalled something i actually need) | |
| [15:11] <Kurdistan> jimmy51_, yes there is. | |
| [15:12] <Kurdistan> go to var/log/apt and there you have history | |
| === k0s is now known as qw-Russian | |
| [15:13] <jimmy51_> cat /var/log/apt | grep "packagename" ? | |
| [15:13] <jimmy51_> oh.. apt is a dir | |
| [15:13] <jimmy51_> full of tar.gz files. | |
| [15:14] <Kurdistan> jimmy51_, cat /var/log/apt/history.log | |
| [15:18] <jimmy51_> Kurdistan: it's blank... it looks like it compresses to a tar.gz and starts fresh periodically. | |
| [15:18] <jimmy51_> i guess i'll have to decompress and cat them one by one | |
| [15:18] <jimmy51_> thanks! | |
| [15:18] <Kurdistan> jimmy51_, np. my is not tar.gz :) | |
| [15:23] * BluesKaj checks , not compression here either | |
| [15:23] <BluesKaj> no | |
| [15:26] <qw-Russian> i am used Spark by Linux | |
| [15:28] <Kurdistan> BluesKaj, any idea about my problem? :) | |
| [15:48] <Kurdistan> http://paste.ubuntu.com/840525/ <<--dmesg output | |
| [15:52] <BluesKaj> Kurdistan, sudo update-usbids | |
| === k0s is now known as qw-Russian | |
| [15:53] <Kurdistan> BluesKaj, it downloaded something | |
| [15:53] <Kurdistan> should it do that? | |
| [15:55] <Kurdistan> http://paste.ubuntu.com/840535/ | |
| [16:04] <jimmy51_> i see in my package management UI i installed an app on 09/23/11... no record of uninstall, but it is gone. | |
| [16:04] <jimmy51_> i'm baffled. where did it go!?! | |
| [16:06] <designbybeck> I'm back at work for the first time with my new Kubuntu install. My main system is a Dell 17 Studio, that I plug into a Dell Monitor with a Display Port. I was hoping it would be plug and play | |
| [16:06] <designbybeck> But the display port isn't displaying. In the Display Settings it shows it is connected | |
| [16:07] <designbybeck> and lets me select size and such. I want it on the left side of my laptop display, I select that and nothing save/apply and nothing seems to push to the displayport | |
| [16:08] <designbybeck> I have an ATI Radon Moblity 4000 Series graphics card. Do i need to install the ATI drivers before it will work? Also does ATI screw up how nice my Kubuntu install is running now? :( | |
| [16:17] <BluesKaj> designbybeck, lspci -nn | grep VGA , should tell us which graphics card then we can determine which driver is required | |
| [16:18] <designbybeck> 02:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: ATI Technologies Inc M96 [Mobility Radeon HD 4650] | |
| [16:19] <BluesKaj> designbybeck, ok , do you have the ati catalyst installed ? | |
| [16:23] <designbybeck> no i do not BluesKaj, this is a clean install of Kubuntu | |
| [16:23] <designbybeck> I had it installed when I was using Ubuntu 11.10 64bit | |
| [16:23] <designbybeck> this is Kubuntu 11.10 64bit | |
| [16:24] <designbybeck> do I just install it the same way? I always had oddities with ATI in Ubuntu Gnome/Unity. I hope I don't with Kubuntu, It is running so purdy' right now | |
| [16:24] <BluesKaj> I'm not totally up on the latest ati ctl apps , buy i thought the catalyst gave you a gui control interface with switching options | |
| [16:24] <designbybeck> Also I used StartUp Disk Creator in Ubuntu to make Bootable USB Drives , what should I use in Kubntu for that | |
| [16:25] <designbybeck> It does have that BluesKaj, I was just worried it make make things clunky or something under Kubuntu, But I guess I have to give it a try | |
| [16:25] <BluesKaj> designbybeck, it's just a gui , not a daemon | |
| [16:25] <designbybeck> hmmmm | |
| [16:26] <designbybeck> So I should just download the drivers that are for Ubuntu 11.10 and that should work with Kubuntu 11.10 | |
| [16:27] <Kurdistan> BluesKaj, lets see I am building bluez obexd latest for kubuntu 11.10 | |
| [16:27] <Kurdistan> maybe that will fix it | |
| [16:27] <Kurdistan> if not it is not kde related | |
| === root is now known as Guest44141 | |
| [16:28] <BluesKaj> designbybeck, install the recommended driver in systen settings > additional drivers if any are listed | |
| [16:30] <ubuntu> bbb | |
| [16:31] <ubuntu> visit http://www.hacktree.in | |
| [16:31] <Kurdistan> BluesKaj, also obexd update. | |
| [16:32] <designbybeck_> There are BluesKaj, one says post release update | |
| [16:32] <designbybeck_> do I do them both? | |
| [16:33] <dwbear> is there another irc channel for ubuntu server? | |
| [16:33] <designbybeck_> BluesKaj: do I need to install both drivers? they are the same, just one says (post-release updates) | |
| [16:34] <designbybeck_> neither says "recommended" | |
| [16:34] <designbybeck_> dwbear: the only one I've used is #ubuntu-server | |
| [16:36] <BluesKaj> postrelease-updates would be the one to use , since it's an updated version of the default driver , designbybeck_ | |
| [16:36] <designbybeck_> gotcha, and that is recommended vs. getting it off amd's website? | |
| [16:37] <qw-Russian> help me please | |
| [16:37] <BluesKaj> dwbear, yes just type /join ubuntu-server | |

| [16:55] <BluesKaj> DarthFrog, I already recommended he join the Russian chat , he insists on asking in here | |
| [16:55] <BluesKaj> designbybeck_, reboot | |
| [17:09] <BluesKaj> BBL ...stuff to do. | |
| [17:17] <designbybeck> Ok BluesKaj, I now have both displays working. But all desktop effects and display rendering is torn and choppy and ugly :( | |
| [17:17] <designbybeck> :(( | |
| [17:19] <BluesKaj> designbybeck, is your graphics onboard or pci ? | |
| [17:19] <designbybeck> Laptop | |
| [17:19] <designbybeck> Dell 17 Studio | |
| [17:19] <BluesKaj> using VGA output | |
| [17:19] <BluesKaj> ? | |
| [17:19] <designbybeck> ATI Mobliity Radeon HD 4650 | |
| [17:20] <designbybeck> DisplayPort | |
| [17:20] <BluesKaj> sorry dunno displayport | |
| [17:20] <designbybeck> this is kinda what it does with Ubuntu Gnome/Unity, it just draws the windows ugly and harsh, I don't have desktop effects anymore | |
| [17:20] <designbybeck> Its when I install the ATI drivers | |
| [17:21] <BluesKaj> ok, but without the ati drivers , you have displyport out put at all ? | |
| [17:21] <BluesKaj> no displayport output , that is | |
| [17:21] <designbybeck> well it seems i had to install the ATI drivers before I can get the display port working | |
| [17:21] <designbybeck> but that is when i lost all the pretty stuff | |
| [17:22] <designbybeck> correct | |
| [17:23] <BluesKaj> is there way to turn the laptop display off while still displaying thru the port ? | |
| === mgagne is now known as wftl | |
| [17:23] <designbybeck> maybe, but i use it as my 2nd monitor | |
| [17:24] <BluesKaj> are they cloned or ? | |
| [17:25] <designbybeck> no i finally got them off cloned | |
| [17:26] <designbybeck> so they are handeling correctly as far as side by side and i can move windows from one desktop to the other BluesKaj | |
| [17:28] <designbybeck> I'm on Dells tech support to see if I can get an NVIDIA card for this laptop! | |
| [17:30] <BluesKaj> designbybeck, ok , open system settings>app appearance>style>graphical effects , choose whatever works , probly hi res and hi cpu , dunno if that will work , but it's worth a try | |
| [17:31] <designbybeck> ok Thanks for your help BluesKaj | |
| [17:33] <BluesKaj> designbybeck, the higher graphics/cpu settings will of course drain your battery power pretty quickly | |
| [17:33] <designbybeck> BluesKaj: I hardly EVER run this sucker on battery | |
| [17:34] <designbybeck> 4gb of ram, Intel i7, 17" display | |
| [17:34] <designbybeck> 1GB video card | |
| [17:34] <BluesKaj> yeah , hi ngraphics pretty weel requires the ac dongle | |
| [17:36] <BluesKaj> .I have an entry level acer laptop that my daughter is supposed to return to me sometime this spring ... handy when we're outside in the summer .. I miss it | |
| [17:38] <BluesKaj> tthat's a nice laptop , designbybeck , by the look of the hardware it should handle your graphics requirements without any problem | |
| [17:38] <designbybeck> right as far as the specs go | |
| [17:38] <designbybeck> but ATI on Linux has always caused me pain!! | |
| [17:39] <designbybeck> i have desktop computers with onboard intel cards that run GREAT! | |
| [17:39] <BluesKaj> yeah agreed , I went nvidia , even a couple of elcheapo cards are worth it | |
| [17:40] <BluesKaj> i have 2 linux desktops with 7600gt and 8400gs cards | |
| [17:40] <designbybeck> those are NVIDIA right? | |
| [17:40] <BluesKaj> yup | |
| [17:41] <designbybeck> maybe i'll have to gjust get my own personal laptop and use it for work as well | |
| [17:42] <designbybeck> Dell Tech support said they didn't have an NVIDIA card for my laptop | |
| [17:42] <BluesKaj> I bought the 7600 from a friend and the 8400 from an online seller...the 7600 altho it's a bit old is working very well , better then 8400 IMO | |
| [17:43] <designbybeck> ah | |
| [17:43] <designbybeck> how much ram do they have? | |
| [17:43] <BluesKaj> lemme check | |
| [17:47] <designbybeck> BluesKaj: it looks like some kind of error between ATI and OpenGL I'm guessing | |
| [17:47] <designbybeck> Kwin | |
| [17:50] <designbybeck> Hmmm from this one post i read, Going to System Settings >Desktop Effects and Advanced : Unchecking VSync and it clean things up | |
| [17:53] <designbybeck> Well this made me a happy camper!!! :D | |
| [17:54] <designbybeck> *fingers crossed!* | |
| [17:54] <BluesKaj> 7600gt has 256 RAM, the 8400 refuses to give ,,think it floats up to 512 | |
| [17:54] <designbybeck> cool | |
| [17:55] <BluesKaj> the 8400 was only 40 bucks online , and it's a pcie | |
| [17:57] <BluesKaj> the command is , sudo lspci -v | less ... there may be a more effewctive command , but I forgot to add it to my cli commands list | |
| [17:58] <yvj> how to register??? | |

| [18:02] <yvj> I am a bioinformatician... and I was wondering if there are any other chatrooms or groups that support the cause | |
| [18:02] <designbybeck> what does that mean yvj? | |
| [18:03] <yvj> My initials!! | |
| [18:03] <designbybeck> lol no | |
| [18:03] <designbybeck> the bioinformatician | |
| [18:03] <yvj> ohh.. | |
| [18:03] <yvj> i get it.. | |
| [18:04] <yvj> sorry. my bad.. i was looking for some help regarding the ongoing projects in the area of bioinformatics... | |
| [18:04] <yvj> and therefore wanted to ask if chat rooms exist in that particula area | |
| [18:04] <designbybeck> what does that do? or for? | |
| [18:04] <DarthFrog> a bioinformatician is a statistican specialising in biology. | |
| [18:05] <designbybeck> HMMmm | |
| [18:05] <yvj> well.. also protein design, protein engineering and many other aspects of biology that need some computation | |
| [18:06] <designbybeck> i take it you are using Kubuntu yvj? Do you use all OSS for bioinformatician? | |
| [18:06] <designbybeck> or in the field of biology | |
| [18:06] <yvj> no | |
| [18:06] <yvj> do you mean open sound... then no | |
| [18:06] <designbybeck> Open Source Software = OSS | |
| [18:07] <yvj> well.. there are open source softwares available.. | |
| [18:07] <yvj> their numbers are increasing day by day.. | |
| [18:07] <yvj> many pple use their own perl, python and java program.. | |
| [18:07] <yvj> along with R for statistical analysis | |
| [18:07] <designbybeck> do you use any? The reason I'm asking, is I work for a university doing faculty development. I am always looking for more OSS to teach and showcase to faculty | |
| [18:08] <designbybeck> We hvae a few using R, we are hoping to do a workshop on that soon | |
| [18:08] <yvj> well.. i know perl and python applications in the area of bioinformatics... | |
| [18:08] <yvj> wow.. | |
| [18:08] <yvj> thats cool.. | |
| [18:08] <yvj> i am kinda dabbling in R right now | |
| === boofman is now known as GhOsTFaCe | |
| [18:09] <designbybeck> nice! | |
| [18:09] <designbybeck> the bad thing about what i do is just the research on finding some of the software, I don't know all the "biology" or stats side and what they need or could do with it | |
| [18:10] <yvj> oh.. i could lend u a hand in that.. | |
| [18:10] <designbybeck> that would be great | |
| [18:10] <designbybeck> where are you from yvj? | |
| [18:10] <yvj> if you could give me the details of the package.. then i could go through it and get back to you.. | |
| [18:10] <yvj> as far as the biology is concerned | |
| [18:10] <yvj> i am in virginia, usa | |
| [18:11] <yvj> what ab u? | |
| [18:11] <designbybeck> Nice, I'm in west central Texas | |
| [18:11] <yvj> wow | |
| [18:11] <yvj> great | |
| [18:12] <yvj> when are u online.. generally.. and this is my first time with IRC.. so what other channels can u suggest.. | |
| [18:14] <designbybeck> :) | |
| [18:14] <designbybeck> most of the time from 8-5pm CST | |
| [18:14] <designbybeck> and randomly after that in the evenings | |
| [18:15] <designbybeck> here are some of the channels I am in: #bigbluebutton, #gimp, #blender, #inkscape, #kaltura, #kdenlive, #kubuntu, #moodle, #mypaint, #opensoureecology, #mahara, #opensourcemusicians, #vinux, #wordpress | |
| [18:16] <yvj> ok.. thanks.. will check those out.. the open source biology looks interesting | |
| [18:17] <designbybeck> Open Source Ecology | |
| [18:17] <yvj> ohh | |
| [18:17] <yvj> ya | |
| [18:17] <designbybeck> http://opensourceecology.org | |
| [18:17] <designbybeck> they might be getting into Biology now that I think about it | |
| [18:17] <yvj> hmm | |
| [18:18] <designbybeck> they'll be doing things like planting and growing crops | |
| [18:18] <yvj> ya.. | |
| [18:18] <yvj> so what kinda softwares do u work with | |
| [18:18] <designbybeck> i do design work mostly | |
| [18:18] <designbybeck> so Blender, Inkscape, GIMP, MyPaint | |
| [18:19] <yvj> ya.. that explains the gimp and inkscape | |
| [18:20] <yvj> tell me.. how close do these softwares get to final cut pro anf photoshop and all those tools made by mac | |
| [18:20] <yvj> *and | |
| [18:20] <designbybeck> well all the ones i just listed run on all platforms | |
| [18:20] <designbybeck> i taught photoshop for years, so i already knew the skill set, just had to learn a little different way of doing things | |
| [18:21] <yvj> ya.. but speaking in terms of performance.. are they at par with eachother | |
| [18:21] <designbybeck> I love Blender and Inkscape, they have great communities behind them and are moving along nicely! | |
| [18:21] <yvj> hmm | |
| [18:23] <designbybeck> be back in about 15mins yvj | |

| [18:24] <bogdan_c> ? | |
| [18:25] <DarthFrog> bogdan_c: Have you done a system update? | |
| [18:25] <bogdan_c> yes | |
| [18:25] <DarthFrog> Try it again. | |
| [18:26] <bogdan_c> the problem was mine ... i wanted to test gimp devel so was necessary to update the pixbuf ... | |
| [18:27] <DarthFrog> Ah, then you'll likely get more help from the GIMP folks as they've likely encountered the problem themselves. | |
| === boofman is now known as GhOsTFaCe | |
| [18:29] <bogdan_c> thank you ! i guess i'll have to wait a bit ... strange that gimp works but firefox, inkscape and mypaint is broken now | |
| [18:29] <bogdan_c> my bad ... | |
| [18:30] <DarthFrog> Personally, I'd suggest backing out of the changes and running the gimp devel in a virtual machine. | |
| [18:30] <yvj> see you around designbybeck... thanks for the startup tips | |
| [18:30] <DarthFrog> Actually, I'd suggest running all alphas and betas in virtual machines. | |
| [18:31] <bogdan_c> i agree ... sadly i have a slow machine as native, a virtual will just not work i guess ... will be a good lesson for the future :) | |
| [18:54] <azmodeus> hi all... | |
| [18:54] <BluesKaj> BBL, ..errands | |
| [18:55] <azmodeus> I've got a problem with my hp 6735s and the wifi... kubuntu doesn't recognize it... why could it be? | |
| [18:56] <azmodeus> 'till this morning it was ok now i've reinstalled the system and this is the result.... | |
| [18:56] <lethu> azmodeus, have you tried launching the Additional Drivers in the System menu? | |
| [18:56] <azmodeus> hmmm... not yet... | |
| [18:57] <lethu> azmodeus, your wifi driver might be there | |
| [18:57] <azmodeus> ok... so I must search the additional drivers in the system menu | |
| [18:57] <lethu> azmodeus, also have you updated your kernel before wifi stopped working? | |
| [18:58] <azmodeus> no... well, Ill try to explain better what happened... | |
| [18:59] <azmodeus> uhmmm... I've installed kubuntu succesfully saturday... and this morning I've got a problem with \dos recognizing at the start of the system (dont know what it means) and reinstalled the system in the same partition... till this morning wifi was working... | |
| [19:00] <lethu> \dos? | |
| [19:00] <azmodeus> now the led of "power" that indicates that wifi is on is turned off... and with linux I cant use that, because I can just turn off with that switch... (even the same problem with this board...) | |
| [19:01] <lethu> azmodeus, do an $ lspci | |
| [19:01] <azmodeus> yep, I think it is something of the win installation ... I've formatted a partition that I mean to use as data... but It seems there was something after the kubuntu installation... | |
| [19:01] <lethu> and look for your wifi hardware in the list | |
| [19:01] <lethu> you might have to do $ lspci | less | |
| [19:01] <lethu> if the list is too long | |
| [19:02] <lethu> azmodeus, have you installed kubuntu without formating the hd? | |
| [19:02] <azmodeus> Broadcom Corporation BCM4312 802.11b/g LP-PHY (rev 01) | |
| [19:02] <azmodeus> that's the hw | |
| [19:02] <peace> azmodeus: iwconfig | |
| [19:03] <azmodeus> lethu, uhmmm... nope... i've formatted but this is the third system installed... ^^ | |
| [19:03] <azmodeus> peace ok, do you want the output? | |
| [19:03] <lethu> azmodeus, have you tried the Additional Drivers window? | |
| [19:03] <peace> azmodeus: yes | |
| [19:04] <azmodeus> as said before not yet... I must do it later... | |
| [19:04] <azmodeus> lo no wireless extensions. | |

| [19:04] <lethu> azmodeus, you may find your driver there | |
| [19:05] <azmodeus> sorry for flood... =( ok, I will search there... if not, I'll be back ok? thanks a lot! ^^ | |
| [19:05] <lethu> azmodeus, np | |
| [19:05] <azmodeus> see ya later... | |
| [19:05] <lethu> azmodeus, later | |
| [19:15] <designbybeck> yvj: you still around | |
| [19:16] <azmodeus> I'm back... nothing to do... I cant download the additional drivers since I haven't the connection... | |
| [19:16] <Myth> Ethernet? | |
| [19:17] <azmodeus> mmm... I'll try later... at the moment I'm not able to... btw, I would like to understand why in the last installation I didn't need to do all that... :D it has installed all by itself... | |
| [19:18] <peace> azmodeus: your wifi is a broadcom | |
| [19:18] <azmodeus> yep... and sucks... >.< | |
| [19:18] <peace> so they can work with firmware + open driver | |
| [19:18] <peace> or ... ndiswrapper | |
| [19:18] <azmodeus> uhmmm.... what does it means??? (sorry) | |
| [19:19] <peace> opensource driver + firmware | |
| [19:19] <peace> closed source driver + ndiswarpper | |
| [19:19] <lethu> peace, the opensource driver isn't a long term viable solution | |
| [19:19] <peace> !broadcom | |

| [19:21] <lethu> azmodeus, the blacklisting? | |
| [19:22] <peace> 1 test the wifi via terminal | |
| [19:22] <azmodeus> uhmmm... didn't read that name... =) isn't good? | |
| [19:22] <lethu> not until you have installed the driver from Additional Drivers | |
| [19:22] <peace> iwconfig => get the name of your wifi | |
| [19:22] <peace> sudo iwlist STUFF scan | |
| [19:22] <peace> stuff is gotten with iwconfig | |
| [19:22] <lethu> ........... | |
| [19:23] <lethu> peace, peace | |
| [19:24] <azmodeus> hmmm.... ok... listen... I've to go now... but I'll be back soon... and hope you'll be there too! :P so we can still try to solve this problem... btw I'll try also the ethernet connection... | |

| [20:36] <em> I installed the Catalyst 12.1 diver from the AMD webpage and then things got slow when i would move a window it would not move smoothly. Any ideas why that would happen or how to fix that? | |

| [20:38] <designbybeck> em do you have desktop effects turned on? | |

| [20:46] <em> designbybeck: probably. How can I tell? Should I have them turned off? | |

| [20:51] <em> DarthFrog: Im woried to try fglrx because my purpose is to ultimately do bitcoin mining with this. | |
| [20:52] <DarthFrog> The fglrx driver is from AMD. It might not be the latest & greatest (which isn't working for you) but is tweaked to run in Kubuntu. | |
| [20:52] <em> designbybeck: yes desktop effects are enabled. | |
| [20:52] <em> DarthFrog: yeah that doesn't sound so bad. I think I will give it a try if need be. I just hope it might not overwrite other stuff. | |

| [21:19] <BentFranklin> My apt-gets and updates are failing. This is on intrepid. Is it too far gone to expect updates, are the servers ossacionally down, or am I doing it wrong? | |
| [21:27] <rork> BentFranklin: Intrepid's end of life was april 30th 2010: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases | |
| [21:29] <BentFranklin> Are the repos gone or just no longer updated? | |
| [21:33] <EvilResistance> !intrepid | |
| [21:33] <ubottu> Ubuntu 8.10 (Intrepid Ibex) was the ninth release of Ubuntu. End Of Life: April 30th, 2010. See !eol and !upgrade for more details. | |
| [21:33] <EvilResistance> BentFranklin: ^ | |
| [21:33] <EvilResistance> its past end of life | |
| [21:42] <BentFranklin> Okay I guess that means eol == sol. Thanks. | |
| [21:43] <jessie> BentFranklin: Why is this machine running such an old version? | |
| [21:43] <BentFranklin> I use it for an internal Wiki and its so mission critical I fear updates. | |
| [21:44] <BentFranklin> I'll just learn how to move the Wiki. Shouldn't be TOO hard. | |
| [21:44] <jessie> BentFranklin: You may want to go with Debian, then. Its life cycles tend to be much longer. | |
| [21:45] <yofel> the repository for EOL releases are on old-releases.ubuntu.com | |
| [21:45] <yofel> still usable, but no security or bugfix updates | |

| [23:01] <macram> i tried to install hddtemp via apt-get | |
| [23:01] <macram> and... http://pastebin.com/1EfhbVnf | |
| [23:02] <macram> the point is: google-chrome-stable is not installed in this computer (chromium-browser) | |
| [23:02] <macram> ideas? | |
| === brent__ is now known as bwellsinNC | |
| [23:06] <sean__> try sudo apt-get update then install hddtemp | |
| [23:06] <macram> sean__ first thing i tried, doesn't work | |
| [23:06] <macram> update works fine, install doesn't run | |
| [23:06] <sean__> have you tryed the software centre ? | |
| [23:08] <macram> also fails | |
| [23:09] <sean__> what happended if you try to install google chrome ? | |
| [23:09] <macram> i don't want to install google chrome | |
| [23:10] <sean__> well if you install it you can allways remove it after | |
| [23:10] <sean__> just need to see if it can find the archive | |
| [23:11] <sean__> do you use the chromium web browser | |
| [23:11] <macram> yep | |
| [23:14] <sean__> try removing chromium and install hddtemp | |
| [23:14] <sean__> or reinstall chromium | |
| [23:15] <macram> ok, sean__, thanks for your help | |
| [23:15] <sean__> no problem | |
| [23:15] <macram> but i'm not looking for a "try and mistake" solution | |

| [23:32] <DasKreech> macram: doesn't mean that it wasn't installed | |
| [23:33] <macram> DasKreech: i know | |
| [23:33] <macram> /var/lib/dpkg/status said it was incomplete | |
| [23:34] <macram> this is going to hurt: i'll try to comment the google-chrome thing in that file | |
| [23:34] <macram> and then update && install | |
| [23:34] <DasKreech> macram: may want to check your logs to see when it first mentions that package | |
| [23:34] <macram> ok | |
| [23:35] <macram> don't try this: it fails xd | |
| [23:35] <DasKreech> I would expect that | |
| [23:35] <macram> DasKreech: Ok, failing is another way of learning | |
| [23:35] <macram> so | |
| [23:35] <macram> What logs should I check? | |
| [23:36] <DasKreech> well /var/log should be instructive | |

| [23:38] <DasKreech> Well there you go | |
| [23:39] <Torch> macram: try apt-get install -f google-chrome-stable, that should finish installing it, then you can remove it | |
| [23:39] <macram> Torch: File not found. | |
| [23:39] <Torch> macram: what? | |
| [23:40] <macram> I have spanish locale | |

| [23:40] <Torch> macram: surely you can run apt-get | |
| [23:40] <macram> but i think adding the google-chrome-repo would do the trick | |
| [23:42] <xourii> is this the help area too? | |
| [23:43] <macram> ok | |
| [23:43] <macram> adding the google chrome repo doesn't do the trickç | |
| [23:45] <DasKreech> xourii: Yes it is | |
| [23:46] <macram> DasKreech | |
| [23:46] <DasKreech> macram: does the apt-cache policy show which repo it came from? | |
| [23:46] <macram> I can't install google-chrome-stable: apt-cache finds it (without description) | |
