[01:26] lakis1982: I mean that Compiz-Fusion, the "Desktop Effects", is incompatible with KDE virtual desktops. that's why nothing happens when you try to add a desktop the normal KDE way when Desktop Effects are enabled [01:26] I think Compiz uses a different way to add a virtual desktop (which they call viewports) [01:26] what shoudl i do ?

I have read on the forums that this is a widespread problem that started ocuring recently but haven't been able to find an answer. I get "Permissions denied" when I try and automount [02:32] so, realplayer installer just wants to write to /opt [02:33] if you install it as root (or sudo) you don't need to change anything [02:33] then i push F [02:33] ok? [02:33] but as user, you should set a group or something.

I have read on the forums that this is a widespread problem that started ocuring recently but haven't been able to find an answer. I get "Permissions denied" when I try and automount. This worked fine in Feisty, if I manually mount it I cannot access it in amarok because I cannot create a lockfile in the /media directory. [02:40] have nice moning [02:40] Does anyone here know how to change the preferred format of an MTP device in amarok? [02:43] hello, can someone tell me what is the replace for kate in kubuntu 8.04??

[02:46] (sort of) [02:47] (kwrite has always been the *default* KDE text editor in KDE 3. Kubuntu changed it to kate) [02:47] Jucato ok thanks [02:48] oh this is a basic question, how do i start an application as super user?? [02:48] if it's a graphical app, "kdesu " [02:48] !kdesu | ivan_ [02:48] ivan_: In KDE, use « kdesudo » (Gutsy) or « kdesu » (Feisty and earlier) to run graphical applications with root privileges when you have to.

Fetching the information from there is around 1,000 times quicker than getting it from the hard disk. [02:55] there is my answer and why Linux is so damn fast! :) I likie [02:56] it has hella better memory managment? :) [02:56] I've always found it slow [02:56] ohh yes... ill never use a Winblows system again... hands down [02:57] pucko| what do u have under the hood??

[03:05] Factoid with in reason! not found [03:05] lol oops [03:05] jimmy51_home: it means that you had a kernel update [03:05] go figure [03:06] i see [03:06] that's about the only time you will need to reboot. but even then it's optional until you actually want to use the new kernel [03:06] jucato, how does that work? i mean, updating stuff that's currently running? i've updated apps right underneath themselves quite a bit. [03:06] i just found a computer on the side of the road today that had a HP burner and 30gig HD in it... and it all works [03:07] :D [03:07] ... and 64md stick [03:07] jimmy51_home: no problem with that usually. and in the case of a kernel upgrade, it actually doesn't upgrade an already running kernel. it installs a new copy of the latest kernel [03:07] (so basically a "kernel upgrade" is actually installing a new, separate kernel) [03:07] does it retain the old, but just change the default grub entry? [03:08] yep yep [03:08] how would... say, a firefox update work? [03:08] it always retains the old kernels and adds the new one to grub [03:08] i've updated firefox through adept, while browsing with firefox [03:08] jucato, not really [03:09] pucko-: which one? ;) [03:09] * Jucato said a lot of things [03:09] oh! i always tell it to keep the current menu.lst. i suppose i'm missing out on the newest kernel then [03:12] is this the only channel on this server??

[05:07] i havent used beryl, just compiz so idk if your not talking about emerald themes [05:07] i dont think compiz fusion is in 7.04 [05:08] is that feisty?

[05:09] yeah [05:09] from using this present.. [05:09] 1 sec ill get a guide [05:09] okay [05:09] thanks [05:09] lol i have a 5.04 cd... [05:09] lol im a little far behind. i dont want KDE 4.0 thou' [05:09] i have a6.06 :( [05:09] LTS :D [05:09] compiz is in feisty but not compiz-fusion it seems [05:09] well is 8.04 come with KDE4.0 by default? [05:10] or whichever the version is now. [05:10] 8.04 default comes with 3.5.9 [05:10] 4.0 is too buggy rigth now [05:11] okay good [05:11] thats what i like to hear lol, i heard its buggy too. [05:11] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HardyUpgrades/Kubuntu [05:11] thanks :D [05:11] thats for 7.10 to 8.04 but ti should apply from 7.04 to 7.10 also [05:11] okay [05:11] then wen your on 7.10 you can upgrade again to 8.04 [05:11] lol wish me luck if not ill get a CD later [05:11] well technically you can upgrade from whatever. i've done dapper to hardy a few times [05:11] ok [05:11] uhh lol [05:12] well dapper is lts so they let you go to hardy [05:12] on feisty and edgy you gotta go one at a tim [05:12] kind of. they say here they don't support such an upgrade.. [05:12] so this only says 7.10 to 8.04? [05:12] the guide? [05:13] doorknob60: you don't. i've done an upgrade to hardy from all of them straight up [05:13] yeah, but it applys for 7.04 to 7.10 [05:13] okay [05:13] smoothness of upgrades always varies [05:13] thanks i thought you ment "Upgrade from 7.04 to 7.10 then from 7.10 to 8.04" shesh i dont have that much time lol, [05:13] thats the supported way [05:14] i think 7.04 to 8.04 might require manual editing of sources.list [05:14] in theory you may run into less problems doing it that way [05:14] uhh [05:14] great [05:14] i think ill just order a CD [05:14] lol [05:14] no need [05:14] will save me the hassle, i hate the editing list's and texts and things [05:14] but i need to learn [05:14] its easy [05:14] well i dont want to upgrade if its going to cause problems [05:15] press alt f2 and type this: kdesudo kate /etc/apt/sources.list [05:15] ohh [05:15] then change everywhere it says 'feisty' to 'hardy' [05:15] thats it? [05:15] 0.0 lol i thought it would be much harder [05:15] then run sudo apt-get update [05:15] then you gotta perform the upgrade :) [05:15] then run sudo apt-get dist-upgrade [05:15] well i'll try the upgrade, if all else fails i dont mind reinstalling. [05:15] that should do it [05:15] shesh [05:15] lol [05:16] and i will go to 8.04? [05:16] i upgraded my debian from etch to lenny succesfully using the same mehtod today [05:16] let me right that down [05:16] yeah thats striiahgt to 8.04 :) [05:18] Could they make Linux as easy as windows, and if they did. Would it contain Virus's like windows? Because somethings i could see being as an improvement for me (noob) user lol [05:18] i just wanted to know althou i am a little offtopic :( [05:18] they are working towards it, but a lot the problems are with vendors [05:19] yeah [05:19] clean install of windows is harder than clean (k)ubuntu install [05:19] yeah, i totally understand things like that, its just when i come to Kubuntu its a little harder, But yet its easier to deal with. [05:19] yeah thats for sure [05:19] but ubuntu seems harder because you gotta set it up yourself when windows typically is preinstalled and working [05:19] you said it! [05:19] yeah thats what i mean [05:19] doorknob60: not when you have to install drivers after [05:20] and this editing things? i took one look and in my head "ahhh" lol, i dont wanna mess around with things. [05:20] you gotta install office, ant-virus and all that [05:20] well when you buy a new computer with windows it includes the needed drivers [05:20] yeah which bog's down your system and it goes downhill from that [05:20] yeah i know [05:20] who needs to buy a new computer ? [05:20] :D [05:20] you don't have to edit things much at all in hardy+ [05:20] i always build them [05:20] well im going to install 8.04 thanks for the help [05:20] okay thanks [05:21] bye [05:21] ciao [05:21] alot cheaper than buying your own comp [05:21] i have checked all of my errors on google but no results [05:21] windows + msoffice + av = a lot of money [05:21] i got a decent cpu and mobo for under $150 [05:21] i can't figure tis out [05:21] <[zEr0-x]> is a very very small pic, don't u have a big one ? [05:22] comodo: how did you go doing the fix? [05:22] i just googled the errors [05:22] i cannot find anything on them [05:22] [13:46] The fix for deluge-torrent suggested at http://forum.deluge-torrent.org/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=4875 is: sudo apt-get install dbus-x11 [05:23] nice i'll try that thanks [05:23] coolio [05:23] who here has an ati card? how well does it work? [05:23] its alright, im on one atm [05:24] when i typed thoes commands in it did not do anything in upgrading [05:24] my new mobo apperantly doesnt support nvidia 8 series cards for some reason so i might have to buy ati [05:24] 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc RV350 [Mobility Radeon 9600 M10] [05:24] wow now it opens thanks flaccid i appricate it [05:24] np comodo [05:24] It just showed a list of text of websites and it didnt do anything [05:24] doorknob60: nvidia 9600gt is better choice [05:24] it might have problems with 9 sersies too though, not sure yet [05:25] codster: pastebin both your /etc/apt/sources.list and output of sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade [05:25] 3 out of 3 newegg reviews say 8 series doesnt work, i bought mobo before any of those reviews [05:25] noone of them say anything about 9 series [05:25] shoot [05:25] one second [05:25] doorknob60: weird [05:25] it has integrated ati :P [05:25] probly related to that [05:25] still latest nvidia drivers have issues that slow em down by heaps atm [05:26] the restricted one [05:26] im using latest nvidia drivers on my nvidia 5200 no probolems [05:26] yeah, but depending on what version you may not be getting full fps [05:26] glxgears shows the same as ive gotten since 7.04 [05:26] thats good [05:27] i know glxgears isnt benchmark but idc [05:27] no problems here, im on debian lenny though [05:27] i can't remember what exactly it affects. kde4 devs found it by accident in testing [05:27] hmm, maybe its a kde4 bug or something? [05:27] nah they worked it out to be the driver, but can't remember what exactly [05:28] ah ok [05:28] doesnt affect me so thats fine :) [05:28] yeah [05:28] so do you have any weird problems with the ati driver? [05:28] i think it affects me. aint getting the high fps i should [05:28] has anyone resolved the dolphin problem with html files ? [05:28] ati is a pita, but its ok. its always the complaints about setting up dual display etc [05:29] i like dual monitors....hmm... [05:29] flaccid, its right here : http://paste.ubuntu.com/20768/ [05:29] does tv out work? [05:29] um i havnt really tried but i couldn't get the s-video to go in the past on restricted.. [05:30] meh [05:30] thats what i need, svideo out and dual screens [05:30] works perfect on geforce 5200 [05:30] restricted drivers need to support the other ports in randr.. === asd214213123 is now known as logico [05:30] using nvidia driver? === logico is now known as logico__h [05:30] yeah, installed manually off nvidia site a few days ago [05:31] debian doesnt need no bloated restricted manager :P [05:31] codster: doesn't look like you did the text replace of 'feisty' to 'hardy' in sources.list [05:31] ohh shoot [05:31] lol [05:31] okay one second lol [05:31] my mistake [05:31] doorknob60: how you set up the dual, the nvidia config binaries? [05:32] yeah, kdesu nvidia-settings [05:32] what was the command? i think i might of added an extra space [05:32] kdesudo kate /etc/apt/sources.list [05:32] okay thanks' [05:32] there was an "s" [05:32] cool [05:32] ah ok [05:32] Could not run the specified command [05:33] ? [05:33] maybe feisty only had kdesu which is symlink to kdesudo ? [05:33] thats what it is giving me [05:33] codster: kdesu kate /etc/apt/sources.list [05:33] maybe, kdesu and kdesudo both work for me [05:33] lol [05:33] your right :D [05:33] in debian theyre different :O [05:33] should of been kdesudo all along [05:34] okay im in a Text editor (kate) [05:34] in debian kdesu needs root password kdesudo needs user password [05:34] Every Fiesty Word i replace with Hardy? [05:34] codster: do the replace, exit and save [05:34] yeah [05:34] no capital [05:34] okay [05:34] lol thats alot! [05:34] doorknob60: has it been like that all along? [05:35] flaccid: i think so, debian by defaut uses root instead of sudo, so kdesu is for su (root), kdesudo is for sudo (like in ubuntu) [05:35] doorknob60: i'll give the dual a shot on this 9600 soon, but i need hdmi heh [05:35] im not worried about dual or tv out on 9600 [05:35] yeah i use debian, but only as server [05:35] yes but lots of people would be ? we have to use beta drivers atm [05:36] im worried if it would support my mobo because the ati integrated card seems to "block" 8 series cards from working [05:36] i heard 7800's work fine [05:36] hmmm one can only try [05:36] yeah they are good [05:36] Now its done [05:36] how do i save? [05:36] just save? [05:36] yeah [05:36] just close and say yes [05:36] okay [05:36] that was alot of hardy words lol [05:36] now i will do the commands [05:37] there we go [05:37] getting hardy updates :D [05:37] good [05:37] thanks man [05:37] this is awesome and easy lol [05:38] codster: cool, just run a sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade after to make sure you got it all. it could take some time however.. [05:38] yeah [05:38] yeah i know :( its 12;38pm and their is a exam tommarrow lol [05:38] dist-upgrade does everything upgrade does and more, no need for both [05:38] shoot [05:38] how can i stop it now? [05:38] why? [05:38] its done anyways [05:39] i thought dist-upgrade did kernel. it does both kernel and userland? i thought you could upgrade kernel but leave userlan [05:39] okay i only ran "Update" [05:39] must be wrong [05:39] dist-upgrade does everything [05:39] oky doky [05:39] okay [05:39] thanks [05:39] i confirmed that eralier today by upgrading etch to lenny [05:39] doorknob60: so if you do only upgrade, the kernel will be left with dist-upgrade right? [05:39] wow [05:39] yeah [05:39] 768 Upgraded [05:39] cool [05:39] 181newly installed [05:40] lol this might take awhile [05:40] always ideal to do dist-upgrade to ovid dependency problems [05:40] * flaccid waits for kde-nightly to install [05:40] 760Kbps :D [05:40] in these situations anyways [05:40] ok thanks doorknob60 [05:40] thank you soo much, if i do go to sleep can i leave this running? [05:40] yeah, but after it downloads it likes to ask a ton of questions :P [05:40] will their be some dramatic message poping up lol [05:40] okay [05:40] well thats not bad [05:40] codster: yeah but you have come across some errors to fix, it may not be totally smooth.. [05:40] i have about an hour befor i go to school [05:41] its okay [05:41] more to learn thats all [05:41] its annoyign cuz i did it overnight and it only got like 5% after the dl part === logico__h is now known as LogiC-h [05:41] yeah lol [05:41] then i left for school it got to like 20% or something [05:41] :P [05:41] PITA [05:41] ive done that, i fell asleep during the Kubuntu setup it stopped half way :( [05:41] lol [05:41] I got Kubuntu on a 10Gb HDD [05:41] lol so if things go bad i can reinstall [05:41] ok reboot [05:42] i used Kubuntu befor [05:42] i got debian and windows 98 sharing a 5 gig hd lmao [05:42] on my lappy [05:42] Lol [05:42] 5Gb IDE?

[06:11] * Jucato investigates [06:12] yeah thats a bug, people have fixed it by removing the text/html mimetype from the file [06:12] listen to flaccid :) [06:12] flaccid thanks. i saw that before [06:12] but i thought some [06:13] permanent solution was out [06:13] im not sure if someone even submitted a bug, i don't use ipod so i didn't submit the but. but to me podcasts are xml so text/html is invalid. but im not sure the purpose of the desktop file [06:15] anyways dolphin is a file manager so [06:15] no file would do that indipendently by the type [06:17] I think the problem is that D3lphin (Dolphin KDE 3 hack) tries to load file-specific service menus in the Information sidebar, which causes the error [06:17] (of course Dolphin (KDE 4) doesn't do that...) [06:18] yes maybe you are right [06:18] but it seems strange to me that no permanent solution was found [06:19] maybe because nobody followed it up [06:19] the service menu is properly konqueror's, which doesn't load/detect the service menu unless a right-click has been made. unlike D3lphin [06:19] * Jucato thinks a permanent solution would be to remove D3lphin... :D [06:20] konqueror > d3lphin [06:20] * > d3lphin :D [06:21] er.. everything except Explorer... [06:21] pretty muc :P [06:21] yeah......maybe [06:21] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dolphin/+bug/199393/ [06:21] Launchpad bug 199393 in dolphin "servicemenu for amarok has an invalid menu entry "addAsPodcast"" [Undecided,Confirmed] [06:22] the funny thing about that bug is that the service menu for d3lphin is installed by the d3lphin packages.. whereas the one for konqueror is installed by amarok...

I try to use settings->configure shortcuts but it seems that it dont know that buttons [09:35] Yeah, I know, you can't use them there ... but if you think it would be useful,k you could tie one of those button presses to a command (ie: anything you would use in a shell .... including dcop commands) [09:36] that sounds quiet complicated, anyways you know how to bind in konqueror back and forward? [09:36] I'm not sure, there might be another, easier way to do it ..... but I personally don't know it ... I'll google it and see if I can come up with anything [09:37] thank you :) I'm googling aswell [09:38] so no known issues with kded in 8.04 except for USB devices causing it to race ? [09:39] sjck: you can tie the mouse button to a button combo with xbindkeys I think .... like, you could make button4 = ctrl+alt+shift+x if you wanted to (anything you want) .... slightly complicated though it may be, it *should* work [09:40] there should be a wiki article about extra mouse buttons [09:40] but I cant find [09:43] wait, I think I've found something interesting here that might do the trick [09:43] http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=455656 === _Jay_ is now known as whkajsfhjfeown === whkajsfhjfeown is now known as _-Jay-_ [09:46] dwidmann thank you!

[09:59] dwidmann: yes q6600 [09:59] so, 240% out of 400% possible [10:00] dwidmann: aha, thanks didn't know that. [10:01] so kded taking 90% is no biggie, especially if it yields gracefully to other apps.

[12:45] flaccid: it depends on your needs really but virtualbox should be fine for most purposes and from my experience it's much faster than anything else, including VMWare [12:46] flaccid: yea wait a minute [12:46] ok ahmad cheers [12:46] VMware is awful [12:47] flaccid: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager/Xgl [12:48] ooops, says that for 7.10 the method is defferent. sorry, i didn't notice [12:49] stefanos_: its auto now iirc [12:49] flaccid: auto? how?

[13:25] support maybe [13:25] no idea [13:26] is the notebook the exact same model? [13:26] but you guys are my support. [13:26] And you charge me $0 [13:26] indeed :) [13:26] [13:27] * flaccid waits for answer [13:27] I'm so sick of linux getting the short end of the stick [13:27] the-erm: is it the same model..EXACTLY? [13:27] * ActionParsnip repeats for flaccid [13:27] Well it's 1525N for the ubuntu laptop, and 1525 for the windows. [13:28] but the windows laptop has more memory & afew other things. [13:28] so whats the difference in spec? [13:28] hi [13:28] thats why then [13:28] nothing to do with OS [13:28] more hardware == more cash [13:28] Dell has gotten a bad press for that befor.. BUT from what i read.. dell i actually several different 'departments' and the linux dept. will oftenhave different deals then the other dept. that may have different deals then the business dept. and so forth [13:28] nyuu__: howdy [13:28] I am watchin HD anime videos with mplayer [13:28] fine ^^ [13:28] but it plays slowly [13:28] nyuu__: got latest codecs?

[13:36] I might try from konsole.. The prog might not make a GUI entry. [13:37] it installed.... but i dont see a menu item [13:37] It may not have made one. [13:37] well shit [13:37] ty [13:37] I'm trying to remember the name of the program I found to fix that.. KMenuEdit or something.. [13:41] the-erm: probably comparing an apple to a banana here [13:42] synaptic can show installed files in the 'details' information [13:42] the-erm: different processor. linux has dual core not celeron..

[17:59] Marphine: i suggest you to change to hardy Heron... [17:59] it is LTS too [17:59] anywhat [17:59] lemme google [18:00] Said card is my only net access so I can only get online with my windows partition so I cannot use the adept installer to do anything [18:00] Hardy requires more RAM than I have [18:01] and I can't see putting money into this P3-966 to get it up to spec [18:01] Marphine: how much ram do you have?= [18:01] 256 [18:01] Marphine: you might be better off installing ubuntu server and selecting a minimal window manager; i.e., icewm, xfce, etc. [18:01] Hardy needs something close to 300... I can't remember the exact number [18:02] Marphine: that's for graphical install [18:02] you can use an alternate install [18:02] which requires lot less of memory [18:02] and runs in text mode [18:02] yes but I'm not familiar enough with the process to trty the command line install [18:03] Marphine: its really easy [18:03] :p [18:03] but the only issue I'm having now that's a problem is this wireless card. Unless that will resolve the driver issue it's not where I''m trying to go with this system at the moment [18:03] ye, i undestand [18:04] me on a typical day .... 850MiB :O [18:04] also I have no net access on Linux without getting this card going so I couldn't update after installing [18:05] in fact I'm not using linux at all currently because everything I do on this machine involves the 'Net [18:05] It looks like I need to install either Madwifi or ath5k [18:05] Marphine: do a lspci (on a console) [18:05] and use pastebin to pass the result [18:05] okay what will that do? [18:06] hi all ... im havin a problem ... alsa seems to have broken after upgrade ... any suggestions how to fix this ... [18:06] give the info about the hardware you have [18:06] I'm not able to do that without rebooting the computer [18:06] :S [18:06] well Marphine check these links out then: http://madwifi.org/wiki/Compatibility/Netgear [18:06] anyway I know what piece of hardware is not working...

[18:49] maybe, i had a direct link to the german one, that's why it was so fast [18:49] sure Asad [18:49] thnku [18:49] is there a way to easily replace the firefox3 rc3 that i have at the moment with the f-fox3-final that has been released today??? [18:49] there is no menupoint "Update." [18:50] uninstall it [18:50] hello is there a way to pause "sudo apt-get install" so in case i have to stop the process it doesnt have to start all over again? [18:50] <_CrashMaster_> alextvm_: Im pretty sure its an all or nothing command [18:51] - my ? put differently - when is the f-fox3-final likely to show up in the repositories...? [18:52] ok thanks [18:53] - or - who has replaced an earlier f-fox3rc with the new f-fox3-final and how did you go about it?? [18:54] I have Ubuntu has the only operating system on my laptop. I'm currently building a desktop computer, but I'm not sure if I should install Ubuntu, or because I kinda like the KDE look, Kubuntu. If I install Kubuntu, will I have any compatibility issues? I wouldn't think so, but I think it'd be best to check... [18:56] you can check your hardware against the compatibility list - eh - i think what works for ubuntu works for kubuntu or..? [18:56] <_CrashMaster_> Jason2gs: As I understand it, Kubuntu and Ubuntu only differ in that Kubuntu used KDE and Unbuntu uses Gnome. And you can easily switch back and forth between the two. [18:56] ok how do i ad the Firefox to my repository? or how can i do it via Konsole? [18:57] the firefox in the repositories is still the rc3 as far as I am aware...??? [18:57] darn [18:57] window: my feelings exactly.. [18:58] there are alternative ways to install - but I don't know enough to say how or if it would replace the existing one if you have it.. [18:58] generally if one just installs something -by hand- it tends to run parallel to other versions - depending perhaps on where you put it - but I am too much of a newbie to say much about this...l [18:58] <_CrashMaster_> frybye: window: www.Firefox.com You can download the latest and the install instructions provided are pretty straight forward. [18:58] RC3 is the same as 3 final, so don't worry about updating if you have RC3 [18:59] _CrashMaster_: but that will install it alongside the existing rc3 or..? [18:59] frybye: Do you have RC3 atm? [18:59] TimS: is that a fact.. [18:59] Yes [18:59] yes... i hvae rc3... [18:59] <_CrashMaster_> frybye: When I did it, it replaced RC3 [19:00] <_CrashMaster_> But as TimS said, they are the same thing, when you boil it down. [19:00] as far as i k - the rc3 only had a change on rc2 relating to a mac os problem.. but I was not aware that the rc3 was the same as final...? [19:00] frybye: If you want to help the world record, download it off their servers. [19:00] http://releases.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/3.0/linux-i686/en-US/ [19:01] According to the guys in the mozilla irc(irc.mozilla.org) its the same [19:01] I hve to be a bit carefull cos I am on an amd64 system and want the flash etc to still work afterwards.. being a newbie I woiuld have trouble setting it up by hand.. [19:01] Oh I see [19:01] TimS: ok i had better stick with what I have for just now... [19:01] That was the 32 bit link [19:02] frybye: Yeah, it will be in the reppos before too long, although updates in the reppos wont count towards the record [19:02] right and i am in germany anyhows.. the us english might not be right I guess.. [19:02] i am going to hang on I guess.. would like to help with the record but... [19:03] dont want a screwed system... no flash etc... [19:03] No, i was just guessing :P [19:03] frybye: Do what I did, download it then just delete it :P [19:03] TimS: sneaky thing you hehehehe [19:03] <|Toad> how do i tell what version i'm using? when i go to about firefox, it just says 3.0, but i know it's rc something [19:04] |Toad: same here... [19:04] if you go to the "version info" page it is all about rc3 - or was yesterday.. not not accessable... [19:04] e e e now not accessable...

[19:06] <|Toad> it says rc1 in the description [19:06] I got rc1 via adept in kde3 a bit back - but in kde4 if I am not mistaken it got me the rc3 a day or two ago... [19:07] Odd, not for me [19:07] ah - what the heck - apart from the d-load record - the rc3 is pretty good - stable - fast as lightning etc...

[20:56] im not installing it from there [20:56] Haza1: ~/ [20:56] im just not sure if downloading from repos counts towards the record [20:57] so i downloaded the package from the site] [20:57] no it doesn't [20:57] but installed through apt [20:57] the company i work for beat mozilla for best code developers in USA [20:57] <_2> ubottu said a mouth full that time, "For best results, do not install...from mozilla.com." :) [20:57] _2: Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [20:57] nvm think i got it it was just sudo alsa force-reload [20:58] meh [20:58] well i did download a copy from website too :) completed my pledge [20:58] done mine too just forlaughs [20:58] download the file from mozilla anyways, in order to help the record [20:58] minhaaj: me too [20:58] how do i search for repos? like if I wanted Killerap.com's browser how would i find their repo? [20:58] why is the record important. doesnt change anything really [20:58] ActionParsnip: bragging rights [20:59] yeah plus the Mozzila guys are roasting marshmallows on their servers [20:59] Mr_Cheeto: you use adept_manager or aptitude search to search through repos, there arnt many external repos , you find them through google though [20:59] coreymon77: bragging rights are for people with small penis' [20:59] ooooh, kthx [20:59] ActionParsnip: i did it because i pledged that i was going to [20:59] so i did [20:59] ActionParsnip, do u konw sum1 with more thanone peni? [20:59] wierd thing though [20:59] gol the holanda [21:00] i go to the ff website and i get the page for ff22 [21:00] I mess the languaje [21:00] ff2* [21:00] not 3 [21:00] netherlands is winning [21:00] Mr_Cheeto: its multiple penis' due to me referencing a group of people [21:00] jpds, _2: thanks, http://packages.ubuntu.com/hardy-updates/ was what I wanted, to see the changelog before downloading. :) [21:00] XD jk [21:00] later [21:00] http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/archive/ubuntu/hardy/wine_1.0.0~winehq0~ubuntu~8.04-1_amd64.deb [21:01] Mr_Cheeto: peace [21:01] <_2> Glisha ah pre-install. yes you have to get that from the web. [21:02] Glisha: apt-listchanges shows you changes before installing [21:03] <_2> it helps to be precise in what one is looking for. ("give me an egg" ... 'splat, the yoke is on you') [21:04] jpds: ha, I saw filename.deb and ignored the --apt switch, my bad. :) [21:06] EpsonStylusC90 "Unable to open device "hal:///org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/usb_device_4b8_5_423031433146E87F32_if0_printer_noserial": Permission denied". How can I fix this? [21:07] <_2> kdesu [21:14] help out the firefox download day record [21:14] http://www.mozilla.com/products/download.html?product=firefox-3.0&os=linux&lang=en-US [21:15] <_2> i still have something eating ram, and i can't find it. http://ubuntu.pastebin.us/?show=d706d3b1e [21:16] _2: try htop or ps -Al [21:16] <_2> Rioting_pacifist huh ? [21:17] ps -Al will give you more info to find it and htop is a nice alternative that gives loads of info [21:19] <_2> ? [21:21] <_2> one would have to start a gui to use htop heh. [21:22] hello! [21:22] andreina205herr@hotmail.com [21:22] no htop is CLI but ps -Al will give you the info you need [21:23] <_2> Rioting_pacifist you can not config htop in a console i just tried it. you can from a gui i tried it too. [21:23] <_2> at least the fersion i have. hopefully they fixed it in later releases [21:24] htop is a command line app, you dont need X to configure it only htop [21:24] <_2> tell the app don't tell me. [21:25] <_2> start htop press f2 and cpu goes to 100% and stays there nothing else happens you have to ^C kill it [21:26] <_2> run it inside of X and it doesn't have that problem. [21:26] weird [21:26] <_2> is repetable tested three times. just to make sure i wasn't missing something. [21:27] <_2> as i stated ^ i hope they have fixed that by now. [21:28] <_2> but at any rate you have to start a gui to use htop in dapper unless you want to just look at the default output, in which case you might as well use top [21:30] <_2> thus my conclusion on that subject, "htop is completely worthless to me" [21:36] Is "firefox 3 starts offline" problem solved in kde? [21:36] <_2> ps doesn't report anything using more ram than 0.4m and of the 33 processes you do the math, that should not be 12m (actually far less closer to 6 because i listed the highest as .4 some list .0 and some .1) but i show 16m used so something is amiss [21:37] <_2> something is eating ram, and i fail to find it. [21:39] <_2> another box reports Memory Used/Total Percent: 7/123 MB (5%) [21:39] <_2> Swap Used/Total Percent: 0/0 MB (0%) [21:39] <_2> which seems right. but this one is choaking out more than twice that much. [21:40] _2: mm... top doesn't show the most "fat" process? [21:40] <_2> sheleztt yes 0.4m [21:40] Hi, i'm using kde4.0.5, but i can't get focus on a window by clicking inside . I have to click on the title bar to get focus. Is this a known bug ? [21:41] what does ps -Al show? [21:42] <_2> note that the last several processes were the pastebin in progress. http://ubuntu.pastebin.us/?show=d275d5ad7 [21:42] _2: you've said that you fail to find it.. here it is, i think. [21:42] <_2> sheleztt i'm all ears. [21:43] how can i look at the various processes running on my system, to see how much RAM things are using up [21:43] i want to know how much firefox is using [21:43] <_2> top [21:43] <_2> ps aux [21:43] <_2> "htop" for those that like it. [21:43] try ksysguard otherwise [21:43] weswh-: top, htop or probably ksysguard [21:44] <_2> alt+esc [21:44] ctrl+esc i think [21:44] <_2> is it ^ ? [21:44] but maybe i changed it [21:44] <_2> i don't use kde so i'll take your word for it. [21:45] is VMSize, the memory footprint? [21:46] yeah [21:46] <_2> top is the most simple to understand of those imo [21:46] yeah top is nice [21:47] _2: im not sure if this makes sense but is it possible that 7mb missing in ram is the kernel [21:47] so in top, VIRT says 338m, and RES says 167m [21:47] in ksysguard, it calls that VMSize and VMRSS [21:47] <_2> Rioting_pacifist sure. except for the fact that an identical system isn't loosing that 7m ;/ [21:49] <_2> Rioting_pacifist normally the "about 6m" that the kernel eats just doesn't show as part of the total i.e. it is not reported anywhere. [21:49] try #linux or #debian i dont think theres much help for tracking down a few missing MB here, normally its just explaining how to use apt-get install [21:51] <_2> top says this box with 512m ram has (Mem: 515748k total) that's what? 503m so 9m not reported at all ? [21:53] _2 : i think the kernel takes some M of ram for itself at startup which is said not "usable" thus substracted from system memory [21:55] <_2> nightrow yeah that's what i said. just different words. [21:56] sorry - only read your last sentence ... :( === StasV is now known as LegolasV [21:58] <_2> the kernel of about 1.5m and the uncompressed initramfs of anywhere form 1 to 8 meg is just simply "lost" as far as all memory reporting methoods are concerned. it's kind of like the kernel "can't see itself?" so to speak. [22:00] okay guys, question [22:00] amarok can handle ipods right [22:00] ? [22:00] <_2> so i hear. [22:00] how [22:01] <_2> err that i don't know. [22:01] <_2> !ipod [22:01] For information on how to sync and add tracks to your iPod, see the guide at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IPodHowto - See !RockBox for information on liberating your iPod [22:01] <_2> !RockBox [22:01] rockbox is an open source firmware replacement for audio players from Archos, iRiver, Apple (iPod), and iAudio. See http://www.rockbox.org/ to get started! [22:03] I'm trying to receive a file via bluetooth, but the phone says that the connection failed. At the same moment KDE bluetooth displays a message "Verbunden mit Liandri" (Liandri is the name of the phone) - However it doesn't do what I want - i can transfer files to the phone, but not the other way [22:04] oh wait it doesn't say that the connection failed. it says that it failed to send. [22:06] how do i dedect unmounted drives? [22:06] <_2> sudo fdisk -l or cat /proc/partitions [22:06] <_2> unless you are talking about optical drives [22:06] <_2> then use eject [22:07] i see the other disk === Haza1 is now known as Haza-zzz [22:08] <_2> http://ubuntu.pastebin.us/?show=d5ca92865 [22:08] <_2> handy for cd/dvd drives ^ [22:08] hmm i think sda2 i installed [22:08] I found a workaround, looks like i can "mount" the phone via bluetooth, which is even more comfortable [22:08] gah, its not working [22:08] amarok is giving me the error that my ipod is a read only file system [22:09] and i cant seem to change it [22:09] how do i mount a drive? [22:09] <_2> coreymon77 kdesu amarok ? i know that doesn't sound like the best idea tho. [22:09] want to make it linux file system aslo [22:10] _2: tried that [22:10] time to give gtkpod a try [22:12] <_2> bestpvp you use mke2fs or any of the wrapper scripts like mkfs.ext3 on the device example: sudo mke2fs -jc /dev/sda2 && sudo mount /dev/sda2 /mnt && echo "look in /mnt now" || echo "something failed" [22:12] hey for installing Wine 1.0 can i follow the ubuntu instructions on the wine page or will it be different for kde? [22:13] <_2> bestpvp that example should make an ext3 fs on device sda2 and mount it on /mnt or if not report that there was an error. [22:13] little new to this [22:13] is there still hope for a point release on 8.04? [22:13] melkart: what do you mean? [22:14] <_2> melkart like 8.04.1 ? no. [22:14] Rioting_pacifist: a release 8.04.1 , before october, before 8.10 [22:14] i see :/ [22:14] ah maybe it's 1 drive only [22:14] no but updates are released, what bug particularly bothers you? [22:14] !firefox [22:14] firefox is the default web-browser on Ubuntu. To install the latest version, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FirefoxNewVersion Installing plugins: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxPlugins [22:14] sda means 1 drive yeah [22:15] after installing virtualbox--where the heck is it? i don't see it on the menu anywhere.. [22:15] Rioting_pacifist: 8.04 never installed well for me [22:15] Rioting_pacifist: so i am stuck with 7.10 [22:15] Rioting_pacifist: if 8.10 doesnt work out for me, then i have a problem [22:16] what was your particular problem wireless, gfk ? [22:17] there were some kernel updates released but i think it was mainly for security and a couple updates were realesed that fixed issues with proprietory ATI (but then again OSS ATI is usable) [22:20] <_2> bestpvp look closely at the output of fdisk -l or cat /proc/partitions the nominclature is pretty simple /dev < device dirrectory. /dev/sd < scsi device (includes usb and some sata) and /dev/hd < the ide bus, normally internal hard drives /dev/sda < the letter (a) starting with a and lettering upward is the drive letter{hda or sda is the first hdd}. /dev/sda1 < the number (1) starting with one and counting upward === joe_mid_ is now known as ca42 [22:21] virtualbox website seems to have tutorials and howtos on many advanced features but not a peep on how to actually start the damn thing. [22:21] <_2> after you understand the way things are called it makes perfect sense, and you can tell at a glance where a device/file_system is. === ubuntu is now known as Conrado [22:23] ok.. typing in "virtualbox" brings up its gui [22:23] amazing how that simple fact cannot be documented anywhere.... and amazing why it isn't put on the menu upon installation. [22:24] gah [22:24] its the same error [22:24] how can i make my ipod not read only === luis is now known as tigremx1 [22:29] ow hi [22:30] How can I make a window "keep above from others" with bash [22:30] ? [22:31] hey how do i change the font size of the sidebars in dolphin? [22:31] nyuu: kstart --ontop (or --keepabove) [22:32] drag the size of the sidebar [22:33] ok, anyway how can I use this command with mplayer [22:33] mplayer --ontop ?? [22:33] rickest: ? [22:33] nyuu: something more like: kstart --ontop --window mplayer mplayer [22:34] rickest: hmm I see [22:34] rickest: double mplayer? [22:34] i screwed with some settings and now all inactive windows (windows in the background) become slightly transparent. This is dragging down my system and i don't care for it. How can i turn it off now? [22:35] nyuu: the first is for '--window' option. READ about kstart [22:35] ok ^^ thanks a lot [22:37] i have my kubuntu without sound, what can i do? [22:37] sorry i just new to kubuntu [22:37] engineer, that just resizes the sidebar, doesn't change the font [22:39] hey all [22:39] ive just downloaded a theme for compiz but it wont apply, do I need to restart X to apply it? [22:47] wireshark tells me there are no devices i can capture on, but running as root tellss me its bad :( how do i changes the permisions to allow myself to snoop [22:49] RiotingPacifist: you might just need to add yourself to the 'wireshark' group, not sure [22:50] RiotingPacifist: http://wiki.wireshark.org/CaptureSetup/CapturePrivileges [22:50] thx [22:55] is it possible for global shotcuts to still work when in fullscreen games? [23:01] ok, now that FF3 is released, whats the proper way to install it on 7.10? i have the beta running from a folder on my desktop but i want it to upgrade ff2 instead (or replace it) [23:05] DarkriftX: did you get an answere? [23:06] nope [23:07] well im not sure how to install it through repos so my only solution would be to move it opt and then link it as shown in !firefox [23:07] !firefox [23:07] firefox is the default web-browser on Ubuntu. To install the latest version, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FirefoxNewVersion Installing plugins: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxPlugins [23:08] ok [23:09] How come Kubuntu is so much better to save battery than Ubuntu? On my laptop I got 2 hours more out of it =D [23:10] because it rocks, erm im not sure you could try running powertop 2hrs difference sounds like something is wrong with gnome (other than the obvious) [23:10] hehe :P [23:12] well from what I can tell, Kubuntu uses about 16~17w/h compared to 20~24 w/h in Ubuntu (with nothing runing, Kubuntu spikes to about 18w/h when the CPU is at 100%) [23:13] Hi. has anyone managed to get unreal tournament to work on kubuntu 64-bit hardy without crashing? [23:14] how can start a window in over screen? === DrUnKnMuNkY1 is now known as DrUnKnMuNkY [23:16] <`jason> i am changing from ubuntu to kubuntu, i have already done "sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop" and i have many new items on my desktop but what do i do next [23:16] nordmoen: that cant be right at 100% both will use the same, but any savings in kubuntu would be due to less wake ups, a likely option is you have compiz running in ubuntu but not kubuntu [23:16] log into kde [23:17] <`jason> Rioting_pacifist, is that directed to me? [23:17] `jason: yeah [23:17] Rioting_pacifist: That might be right, but I still find that Kubuntu is better at saving power [23:17] <`jason> ok so basically, i restart and login to kde? [23:18] `jason: log out and login to kde should do it, no need to restart, this is linux ;) [23:18] help me help u [23:18] <`jason> oh cool thanks Rioting_pacifist [23:18] Hi. has anyone managed to get unreal tournament to work on kubuntu 64-bit hardy without crashing? [23:19] `jason: you might not even need to logout you could jsut start another session but i couldnt tell you how to do that in gnome [23:19] Evening all [23:19] richard_: its kind of emput in here as your problem isnt directly kde replated try #ubuntu they have 4/5 times as many people [23:20] oops [23:20] Dishivlatavish: why does it crash, what do you get in terminal output [23:20] I get fcntl:operation not permitted, followed by a segfault [23:20] does anyone know how fix issues with DKPG?
