User4: simply start plasma-desktop
User5: hey all whats good on the irc today ?
User6: I have a problem with Kubuntu. About 70% of the time, I am unable to boot into it. I get a blinking underscore usually. Sometimes the kubuntu loading bar freezes. I checked my logs; there is no logs from the blinking underscore moments.
User5: do you use a custom video driver?
User6: I use the one that the Hardware Drivers program provided. This issue also happened before I installed the driver, and when I used the LiveCD.
User5: what kind of video card is it ?
User6: An Nividia 260GTX I believe.
User3: User4 all set, desktop comes back, thanks for your help :D
User4: np
User6: Would a reinstall help? I don't have any data on here..
User6: Then again, the livecd failed too..
User6: I didn't verify the hash and whether the CD was correct. Could that be causing the problem?
User5: that could...
User5: check boot that disk and run the on disk varification
User6: I remember trying that. I got the same blinking underscore. :P
User5: then i would start w/ a new iso.. check the md5 before you burn the cd
User6: Alright.
User5: then again after..
 * slix looks up how to do that.
User5: that is the cd...

User6: I'm gonna try out the gnome desktop first. I've only tried KDE.
User5: while your checking out desktops there is also xfce  and lxde to play with
User5: and i am sure more...
User6: Any major differences?
User5: they all have there different takes on the desktop ..
User7: hey guys
User5: xfce is kinda a scaled down gnome.. , and lxde is another light desktop kinda set up more like kde, there are a bunch more but idk if there in the repos
User8: Oh wow.
User8: That is..
User8: I'm on Gnome.. And.. it's going to be really difficult to choose between kde and gnome..
User8: That.. that is.. not an easy choice.
User8: Sorry kubuntu folks! I think I like Gnome better. :D
User6: D'oh!
User6: System froze when I tried to burn a disk.
User6: Md5sum of the .iso became incorrect after restart :(
User9: someone know what is the kkubuntu irc program name ?
User10: quassel
User11: How can I switch to the vesa driver?
User11: Basically, I need to be able to switch to the generic driver because of a program bug and switch back afterwards. Is there a simple way of switching back and forth between them?

User15: User13 PLEASE do not call a community announcement spam.  Thank you.
User13: User15 it's not official, it's nothing to do with kubuntu, unless it's also Ubuntu and KDE (the other channels you spammed) and it's spam

User14: Also, despite having the Radeon driver running, and direct rendering enabled, Compiz won't go into Direct Rendering mode. It apparently can't find "texture_from_pixmap".
User18: hi
User18: hi how come I don't see anything with wubi installed in bd6c:f4c4:4f6:c742:59d8:35db:68f6:4d5f\ubuntu\disks\boot\grub
User14: um... what>
User14: goppp, what do you mean?
User18: I mean that folder is empty
User18: it has no files or config files or nothing
User18: and i did 9.10 wubi install
User14: Will it boot?
User19: how do i set my keyboard's volume media wheel to amarok?  The volume wheel works for the system volume and internet volume... but amarok is not affected????  I have a Logitech G15 and running Kubuntu 9.10 with KDE 4.3.2 and Amarok 2.2.0
User20: hello, id like some help
User20: im currently working on 9.10 ubuntu... and as u know it comes with gnome by default
User20: i just installed KDE on it.
User20: my gnome desk env. detect and connects to the WEP network here
User20: but KDE does not
User20: please help
User21: If all else fails, you can press alt+f2 and run "nm-applet" which will start GNOME's applet
User22: can anyone tell me how I can correct the kdesudo "error" when I first startup Kubuntu 9.10 ... should I just uninstall it?
User20: oh! maybe i`ll try that... :-)
User20: JontheEchidna : thankx a load! :)
User21: :)
User20: JontheEchidna : i`ll be back to bother you if it dsnt work(hehe... kidding... ;-) )
User20: JontheEchidna : bye.... :-)
User21: User22 the best way to prevent that error is to make sure any applications that asked you for your password have quit before you shut down
User21: uninstalling it is a bad idea since several apps need it to work, since they need your password
User11: How can I load the vesa driver?
User22: jontheechidna :  no matter what I do it auto kicks in when I startup everytime
User21: User22 try "killall kdesudo" before you shut down next. It may be that a kdesudo process is lingering before shutdown
User21: then it is saved as part of the session and pops back up when the session is restored on login
User20: hello. i have set <ctrl><alt><direction-key> to move about on my desktop wall in the settings on compiz manager. however, there is no response on trying that out. any ideas?
User23: i'm trying to give rw permissions to my vfat external HD, but i can't seem to view it in fstab
User23: any suggestions please?
User23: I'm fairly new, so I might just be missing something obvious...
User24: Hello
User25: i just switched to kde, and for some reason i can not move my widgets on the panel..
User26: if the widgets are unlocked you should have a weird icon thing to the right of the panel, click that and then some other bar will appear and you can move everything
User13: it's a cashew btw
User25: yeah they're unlocked, i do go the the panel settings and i get the move mouse cursor and when i move it, it just goes back to the lefthand side
User26: oh you have to add a spacer I think
User25: oh
User25: sweet

User29: sure whats up
User28: thankz im kinda new to linux k um when i plug in a usb it says
User28: Error mounting: mount exited with exit code 1: helper failed with:

User24: can anyone help me wih my sound issue
User29: is it a mem card od a pendrive?
User29: cmojallali dont ask to ask just ask
User31: can i edit access permissions to a mounted vfat drive?
User32: User28 FloodBotK2 is a bot
User28: im having error mounting usb
User32: User28 Please use the http://paste.ubuntu.com website recommended by the bot to paste the output it gives you when mounting is tried
User32: (and then to tell us the URL so we can view it)
User28: ok
User24: I just installed Ubuntu yesterday on my new laptop, im using a MacBook Pro 5,3 Unibody and I've tried doing what this website says: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBookPro5-3/Karmic#Sound but it didn't work
User24: I'm getting no jose53@example.org. Maybe it's because i didnt run that as a script i just entered it into the terminal one line at a time
User24: no one?
User28: http://paste.ubuntu.com/343718/
User28: thats url
User32: User28 Hm, sparse. What filesystem is on the drive, or is it formatted at all yet?
User28: its formatted
User32: User28 As... ntfs,vfat,hfs,ext...other...?
User28: um i think FAT32 or FAT
User32: User28 Please pastebin result of command in Konsole of:  sudo fdisk -l
User32: User28 When it asks for password, use the one you normally use to login with
User28: ok i did that
User32: User28 And the line which contains somewhere in it "sdb1" says ... ?
User28: start is 1 end is 1021 blocks 3924693 id b system w95 FAT32
User32: User28 OK. So I would recommend: sudo mkdir /media/sdb1 && sudo mount -t vfat -o rw,users /dev/sdb1 /media/sdb1
User32: User28 Then see if file browser shows anything inside /media/sdb1 directory
User28: um do i copy and past?
User32: User28 Sure, everything on the one line after the :
User28: o sweet that worked.....ok do i have to do that every time i plug in a divice?
User32: User28 Well, there is a way to make an entry in the /etc/fstab file for this. But if the drive is removable, then "sdb1" won't always be the same drive, etc. so if you go this way recommend to use UUID of the drive in there
User28: ok
User32: User28 If you tell the result of: sudo blkid /dev/sdb1                           then I can tell you the steps to add this if you like
User28: um ok shure
User28: sorry im kinda new to linux and it says nothing
User32: Hm. It's conceivable it has no UUID ( but unlikely)
User33: i'm new, does anyone know command line to give all users/groups access to a mounted drive?
User28: is that bad?  also i cant unmount it and when i take i out the icon stays
User32: User28 No UUID means can't make an /etc/fstab entry which will always use the same options on the correct disk partition, sorry
User34: Guest54271, usermod +G cdrom (user)
User28: oh i see
User34: Guest54271, or you can edit /etc/group
User32: User28 As for unmount, etc: When we manually mounted, to properly un-mount, should do like (in this particular case): sudo sync && sudo umount /media/sdb1 && sudo eject /dev/sdb
User33: crashdata, the name of my HD is /dev/sdb1, so would the command be sudo usermod +G /dev/sdb1?
User34: Guest54271, usermod +G cdrom user
User34: the group is called cdrom
User34: just add ur user to that group he should have access to the cdrom
User34: make sure its cap G
User34: after adding that user to the group
User34: u have to exit x
User32: User34 Incidentally - if you omit the -a (APPEND) to that command, the ONLY group that user will belong to is "cdrom"
User33: i get usermod: no flags given
User34: sorry -G
User34: usermod -G groupname user
User32: User33 I would not recommend to follow crashdata's advice in this instance
User33: User32 what would you recommend?
User32: User33 eg: the command they give will remove "user" from all groups and make "cdrom" the only group they belong to. As well they omitted the "sudo" which would be neccesary for it to actually work. Additionally, we don't know if your /dev/sdb1 requires someone to be in the cdrom group to be accessible, especially as it might be a hard drive.
User34: genii,  no ur not getting it, its Cap G
User34: meaning ur adding another gorup
User34: not -g
User34: -g means initial group
User32: User33 I would recommend to alter the mount options so that regular users can use it
User34: capital G means add that user to another group
User34: Guest54271, just do sudo -G cdrom user
User32: User34 From usermod manpage: a, --append    Add the user to the supplemental group(s). Use only with -G option.
User34: http://www.computerhope.com/unix/usermod.htm
User34: read it
User33: it is an external HD and not a CDROM drive, does this make a difference in the command
User34: yes
User32: A list of supplementary groups which the user is also a member of. Each group is separated from the next by a comma, with no intervening whitespace. The groups are subject to the same restrictions as the group given with the -g option. If the user is currently a member of a group which is not listed, the user will be removed from the group. This behaviour can be changed via -a option, which appends user to the current supplementary group list. . ...
User32: Note that this means: Unless with -a, unless all other groups the user already currently belongs to get listed along with the one you wish to add them too, THEY WILL END UP BELONGING SOLELY TO THE ONE YOU NAMED
User32: ( excerpt for -G option  )
User33: does that mean it's not possible to simply add read/write permissions, without removing/affecting my other settings?
User34: Guest54271, just do chown /dev/drive user
User32: User33 If I hadn't needed to be in bed to sleep an hour ago I would help you more on this problem. at this time I'm trying to limit what damage could be caused by making your username only belong to one group.
User34: genii, well i guess i've added my user before the way i gave it
User34: and i never had any complication
User34: i guess when i made myself a member of an admin group...which on this case wheel

User53: hi cheeko, did you use somewhen xdmcp?
User52: i just yup
User53: ok, if you knows, how I can avoid session termination if my local station comes hibernate
User54: User53 You can't. The XDMCP session will be terminated automatically.
User54: an alternative is to use VNC/FreeNX instead
User54: or buy yourself a copy of SunRay Server and a SunRay ;)
User53: User54 sunray its comes from soalris
User53: hm, quite sad about xdmcp
User54: yes, but works on Linux too.
User53: Vroomfondle and if I did connection kust by Xorg-server it anyway would be terminater if I disconnect?

User55: Morning all....  I just upgraded to Karmic yesterday and am having some troubles with sound...  I fired up Juk and it was playing music for a while then the sound just died out...
User55: If I quit Juk and restart it, the sound will come back
User56: side mouse button works in FF and rekonq but not in konq or dolphin
User56: how do i get it working? thanks
User55: Any help on sound? I narrowed it down... If I fast forward through a song to almost the end, the next song no sound, if I do same again next sond has sound... every other song plays fine
User26: JuJuBee_ does it do that with every media player?
User57: User55 yeah it sounds more like a player problem
User58: hi
User55: User26 not sure.  I can't even get Banshee to play any songs now... just get x next to each one I try to play
User55: This all started after upgrading to karmic
User26: the media player you are using probably got an upgrade when you upgraded to karmic and it has some bug which is causing your error
User26: thats my best guess anyways
User59: I have problem with webcam kubuntu 9.10 ekiga 3.2.6 http://pastebin.ca/raw/1719295
User55: What other media player should I try...  It seems strange that banshee will not play any files now...
User26: I use amarok and it works well
User55: with karmic?
User26: yeah
User55: Amarok won't play either...
User55: in fact amarok won't even load now...
User55: amarok: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/libamaroklib.so.1: undefined symbol: _ZTIN6TagLib3ASF4FileE
User55: I had a feeling that upgrading to karmic would cause me nightmares.
User55: I can't boot the 2.6.31 kernel as it makes my mouse keep darting to the upper left corner and it becomes useless...
User57: User55 have u restarted after the upgrade
User57: User55 or do apt-get update and apt-get upgrade then restart and see what is going on
User55: yes to both
User60: hi all. does the knetworkmanager provide a wizard for setting up mobile broadband connections (linke in ubuntu)?
User57: User55 see if libamaroklib.so.1 library exists sudo ls -la /usr/lib/ | grep libamaroklib
User55: yes, it seems to be a link to libamaroklib.so.1.0.0
User55: I wonder if I should just do a clean install of karmic
User57: User55 clean install noramlly soves problems when the os resolves correctly your hardware everything is fine
User57: User55 do you get the same error from amarok
User55: User57 what error?  I cannot load amarok
User57: you said it gives you this error amarok: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/libamaroklib.so.1: undefined symbol: _ZTIN6TagLib3ASF4FileE
User55: yes
User57: and now it does not load at all?
User55: that is correct
User55: since the upgrade
User57: ok type amarok in your konsole (terminal) and it should write the errors that cause this
User55: that is how I got the error I posted
User55: that was the only messgae
User55: *message
User55: On another note, will I see any significant diffs if  I use 64bit vs. 32 bit?  I have core 2 duo 2.54 with 6G RAM dual 320G 7200RPM drives
User57: User55 if you use 32 bit os it will use only 3GB of your RAM
User55: I see.  So I should use the 64bit version.
User55: Specially since I use virtualbox for a windows app I need
User55: Well, I think I will download the Karmic 64BIT CD and reinstall.
User55: Just such a pita to reinstall all software and configure everything every 6 months or so...
User55: Where can I get the md5 for the iso I am downloading so I can check it after download?
User61: hmmm, in kde 4.3.4 I sometimes lose my wifi connection with the network-manager-plasma-widget... and then it won't jose53@example.org. How can I restart those network services completely? I tried to turn wifi of and back on with the plasma widget, but that didn't help. It didn't even try to reconnect anymore. The only thing I can do is reboot the computer
User55: sena : so you are still using 8.04.... do you get updates like the most recent version of amarok etc... or are you stuck with versions for 8.04?
User54: 8.04 only gets security updates and bugfixes
User62: hello
User55: User61 I prefer to use wicd instead of network manager.  I have good luck with it.
User55: User54 thanks.
User62: #rus_israel
User61: User55 the problem is that I need concurrent wifi and ethernet on two different networks
User61: User55 and wicd can't do that (yet) :(
User62: join #rusisrael
User61: User55 but you're right, wicd is generally better than the network manager
User55: Ah, you are correct
User63: my sound stops, whithout a notice, i reboot my system and he didn't come back
User63: but amarok is working great by example
User63: only sound into movie files
User61: User63 if you want newer amarok (meaning you're not on karmic) then have a look at the Neon project
User64: hello every body
User64: how can i configure th ependrive ???????????

User67: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
User64: how cai i read my pendrive
User64: ??
User65: User64 plug it in,it should show up in dolphin
User64: no it is not working
User65: User64 whats the problem?
User64: there is any command for read it ?
User65: User64 for reading it no... for mounting it yes
User64: hmm
User64: for mountong it wich is ?
User65: User64 first type : sudo fdisk -l : to determine which drive you want to mount... for pendrives its usually /dev/sdb,check the size to make sure
User64: then ?
User65: User64 then : sudo mkdir /media/pendrive;sudo mount /dev/sdX /media/pendrive
User65: where X is the letter  like b,c,etc
User65: User64 then simply go to /media/pendrive and browse your pendrive
User64: sudo mkdir /media/pendrive to creat a directory?
User64: but why ?
User65: User64 yepp
User65: User64 so that you can mount it
User64: ahmm ok thanks
User64: i found other commands mount -t vfat /dev/sda /media
User64: vfat because has a fat32's type
User65: User64 of course.. but theyre not required,all that is autodetected
User64: YES
User32: User64 In that command you found, it uses just the directory of "/media"   which is not good. It should be some subdirectory of /media to mount it in
User64: in the first time whene i had install the system, that was autodetected. but know i find a probleme to mount it
User64: eazy

User76: i updated and for some reason hibernate seems to be broken, it says "desktop is locked", then proceeds anyway, but just turns the screen black, at that point i have to manually shut it down
User27: What's a good program for resizing partitions in Kubuntu?
User12: gparted
User12: its an iso you burn to disk and can format resize etc
User27: Ah
User12: change the order of your boot device to cd/dvd and start it before you start the os
User27: Is it in the operating system already or do I need to download?
User12: you download it burn it and run before the os starts up
User27: Resizing wont hurt any of the data, will it?
User12: so  restart is obviously required
User12: shoudlnt do if you do it correctly
User27: My home partition is full and I need to provide it with more space
User27: Okay, good.
User12: wait
User12: its full?#
User27: Yea.
User12: do you not have another hd
User27: Sadly, no.
User12: then i suggest you dont do it
User27: I sort of have to.
User12: get another hd and use fstab to integrate it into your current system
User12: what are you trying to do
User27: Is it difficult to resize with it being full?
User12: you will lose data
User27: Basically, I'm trying to set it up to where I can install what I need for Wine applications.
User27: But using the home directory with such a small partition obviously created issues.
User12: size of hd?
User27: I didn't know it at the time, I just assumed I had a decent amount of memory on the partition.
User27: 300g or so.
User12: k what progs do you have
User27: Just Wine and the default Kubuntu applications.
User27: Along with a World of Warcraft without the expansions.
User27: But that took up the entire partition.
User12: well that doesnt take up all that space surley
User12: no
User12: it doesnt hang on brb
User55: What do I install to get gnome desktop along wtih kde?
User77: ubuntu-desktop
User27: How would I check how much space is left in the home partition?
User55: Ah, thats it/  Thanks, I was having a moment.... looking for gnome-desktop
User12: User77 the ubuntu system would not take up more than 300gb would it
User77: 300gb? O_O
User77: i dont even have a 300gb hard drive
User12: me either
User27: Well, I don't think it would. I wonder whether the home partition was just incredibly small.
User12: Philo if i were you i would check for a worm
User78: hi folks, can i add a repo just for koffice-kde4 ppa instead of for the entire: deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-ppa/backports/ubuntu karmic main ?
User27: It's listing the home folder as 9.4gb
User12: User27 worms on linux are very obscure but some do exist
User27: But.
User27: I do have 250gb left
User27: Just not in the home directory.
User27: I don't know lol
User12: goto applictaions
User12: disk usage analyser
User12: and check whats using up all that space
User12: eg. do you have alot of music or alot of films
User12: any you could burn to free it up or?
User27: I can't find that application.
User27: No, I just formatted last night.
User27: So, there's no way the space could be used up.
User12: k applications-accesories-disk usage
User78: anyone?
User32: User27 If all you want for the moment is to be able to put more stuff in your home dir but not have to resize stuff, etc. I'd recommend just bind-mount some dir from the main area into it
User27: And Wine would recognize that?
User27: Phantom: I'm not finding that disk usage application.
User12: you on kubuntu or gnome
User27: There isn't an accesories tab and a search for disk usage comes up blank
User27: Kubuntu.
User12: thats why then sorry i assumed gnome because you just installed
User78: ok how about if i rephrase like this: how can I install Koffice 2.1 without otherwise using backports repo?
User27: User32 How would I do that?
User12: sorry joshjtl i cant help you there
User27: User12 Is there not an equivalent application on Kubuntu?
User32: User27 You can also specify to Wine in the "Configure Wine" to use whatever arbitrary dir you want as for instance, Drive Z:   or such (so long as the user running Wine could read-write there).
User32: Apologies on lag, work
User27: So, I would need to give it permisssions?
User12: im sure there must be but i wouldnt know as i use gnome and havent used kde so far
User27: Why would resizing it cause data loss?
User12: because it removing x amount to free space the space has to come from somewhere
User27: Yes, but that also occurs whenever you resize a partition to install Linux or some other operating system to dual-boot.
User27: Right?
User12: yes but only if the drive is full
User27: Oh, I see.
User27: Well, then.
User27: If I went ahead and deleted the WoW application and Wine, would that work?
User12: probably not as the programs wouldnt pass a large amount of space it would probly be in the mb region and not gb
User27: WoW was over 4 gigs or so.
User27: Without being installed.
User27: It's fairly large.
User12: its still not all that much though but it depends how much space you want and need only you can decide that
User27: I probally need a good 30gb in the directory.
User27: Maybe I should just format and provide home with a larger partition.
User1: is there any inbuilt task schedular in kubuntu
User12: me personally would do a reformat and resize before setup then do wht it is your wanting to do but thats just me though
User12: so in this case its your decision
User27: Yea, I guess I'll have to.
User27: Thanks for the input.
User12: s'ok
User12: right im offski
User12: laterz
User79: hi
User79: Does anyone know how to get around this problem? Erm I have a new digital camera. it doesnt show up in the mount widget window (not a problem) When I mount it it doesn't show up in /dev/disk/by-uuid although it does show up in the other ones (label, id and path) how do I automount it... (it might not always be /dev/sdc1)
User80: ho
User64: hello
User64: php in my kubuntu
User64: i have a php5 installed

 * raindog is patiently awaiting the amarok 2.2.2 build from the kubuntu beta ppa.
User65: User85 bleh... i prefer direct git builds on my PC :P
User85: User65 I'm considering building from source tarball currently.
User65: User85 meh... get the git one,its pretty awesome and quite stable :)
User85: User65 I'll consider that as well.

User65: User85 well its not crashed for the past 10 mins :P
User65: User85 btw any idea on how to get udp trackers give me peers?
User85: User65 Might you have to port forward for it to work correctly?  I don't know, just a possibility.
User65: User85 probably yes
User58: where can i find xorg.conf file ?
User77: *if* you have one: /etc/X11/xorg.conf

User58: when i installed 4.4 i had problems with plaza like 2/min :D
User47: lilbattler, ehm the surface you look at
User47: the panel the desktop
User47: that is plasma
User86: ohh like user interface?

User87: User47 Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
User47: i knrew it
User58: ah so do i, gf 8800 gt, wotks fine on 4.3.4 with 190.x drivers
User47: i still have the 185 ones
User47: on gf 8600 gt
User88: 190's are much faster on my system
User47: hmmm
User88: and I'm using 8200 chipset
User47: are they in the repo ?
User88: nope
User47: ppa ?
User88: nope.. you have to get them from nvidia..
User58: User47 add http://ppa.launchpad.net/nvidia-vdpau/ppa/ubuntu to ur sources list
User47: https://launchpad.net/~nvidia-vdpau/+archive/ppa/+packages
User47: ;)
User88: User47 keep in mind .. if you install their binary driver you'll have to reinstall it with each kernel upgrade..
User88: vdpau I don't think is the same.. isn't that the opensource driver?
User47: Scunizi, no
User47: noveau
User47: is opensource
User88: ah
User65: User47 btw if you have kde 4.4,is nepomuk working?
User58: User65 so u re on 4.4 to ?
User65: User58 yep
User58: User65 and do u have any problems (except nepomuk)?
User47: shadeslayer, afaik it cant work
User65: User58 nope... its a bit crashy
User65: User47 i tried for 2 hours,installed virtuoso by compiling and recompilied soprano,still no luck :P
User89: Hey all, is there a way to remove a host key from my ~/.ssh/known_hosts file without deleting the whole file?
User88: User89 can't you edit it?
User89: It's in binary...
User65: btw which is better on a 8600M GT, 185.x or 190.x ?
User65: (nvidia drivers i mean)
User88: User89 not sure of the tools in kde but isn't there a keyring manager?
User88: User65 190+
User89: ssh is independent of kde or gnome.
User65: User88 hmm... ok ill install them then via the PPA link just posted above
User88: User65 worth a shot.. 185 was always a little on the slow side for me.
User88: User65 you might also install dkms from the repos.. might help with kernel upgrades
User65: User88 what about heat issues?
User88: haven't seen any
User88: User65 but I'm running it on a desktop
User65: User88 hmm.. i have a laptop
User88: User65 you can always revert back
User65: User88 of course :),which one 190 or 195?
User88: 195
User65: ok thanks :D
User72: shadeslayer, check out whether the 195 may be a better fit for your card
User65: User72 how,is there some page or something i can view?
User65: or just by installing it
User88: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VDPAU
User72: check the forums , and the package manager , to se if it's listed
User58: did anyone fo you upgraded from 4.3.4 to 4.4 ?
User65: User58 many actually :)
User65: oh force us?
User65: User72 yeah im googling
User88: User65 also check out http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux_display_ia32_190.53.html
User47: soee, i did upgrade
User47: was a bit tricky
User88: User65 it lists a lot of the 8 series cards
User58: i want to know if u are using 2 panels and did u have any problmes with them ater upgrade
User58: like one was lost etc
User47: nope
User47: iam on twinview
User65: nope...
User47: and worked perfect before and after upgrade
User47: so testing new drivers
User47: brb
User88: User65 looks like the 195 might not be "certified" yet.. but the 190.53 is
User65: User88 oh im a "break and learn" kind of person :P
User88: :)
User65: User88 ive compiled 5-6 apps for use on my main system
User88: adventurous
User65: User88 yeah,i plan to compile the whole of KDE sometime in jan or feb
User58: what qt version using 9.10 ?
User65: User58 depends on your activated PPA's
User65: User58 default is 4.5
User58: so ghostcube mensiond taht he has 4.6, is it good idea to upgrade  ?
User47: no
User65: User58 yeah 4.4 is pretty good... easy on the eyes and stuff
User47: depends on the tools you need
User65: hehe...
User58: aht ver. 10.04 uses ?
User58: *what
User47: brb
User65: User58 depends more on whether you can dedicate 15-20 mins everyday on keeping your system alive :P
User58: ;o
User58: so i stay with current :)
User65: User58 well thats a bit of a overstatement,its a bit less than 15-20 mins ;)
User65: User58 if you need a machine which doesnt break at all use kde 4.3.4 and the latest official repos.... thats it
User58: yeah im doing it right now and works fine all the time :)
User65: User58 if you want alot of new features and toys then 4.4 is good :)
User58: hey do u know maybe if i can do this:
User65: 4.3.4 was pretty much a rock
User65: User58 do what?
User58: i have 4 desktops, can i assign some programs to each one, i mean. i want to run program and he shuld appear on desktop 4 by default
User65: User58 by default i dont know,but when its running you can assign it a desktop
User58: well programs are opening on the desktop witch is currently in use
User65: User58 yep
User65: User90 hey :)
User85: User65 Did you compile ktorrent 3.3 or 4.0b1?
User85: so far git version of Amarok working just fine.
User65: User85 compiled svn checkout
User90: hi shadeslayer
User91: Hey all
User85: User65 ah, always bleeding edge I see.  :)
User65: User85 yeah it works fine,and idk if it was ktorrent or something but plasma crashed a few times :P
User65: User85 but ktorrent never crashed
User65: User90 :)
User91: My networkmanager craps out not letting me logon the wireless after boot, I have to manually restart the service.
User65: User91 wicd ftw
User91: User65yeah
User91: anyone have a fix besides dumping it for wicd?
User65: User91 probably not :P
User92: Has anyone tried kde 4.4beta1? is it any stable?
User88: User92 #kubuntu has said today that there are crashes occationally
User92: oh, ok
User92: thanks
User93: Hi all, I have a question about deleting files......I notice some operating systems delete really fast while others delete really slow(vista)...I'm not quite sure how each operating system deletes, but I get the impression that the fast ones just mark a location to be overwritten while other operating systems actually go thru each byte to set it all to 0...is this somewhat true?
User65: User93 yes... though each operation might be different
User65: brb
User93: Ah ok thank you....so it is possible that my os marks locations as allowed-to-be-overwritten? And that the data I think I deleted is still actually there just waiting to be overwritten by anything else I save?
User58: ok im on 4.4 now ond lucky it works somehow :)
User92: ssoee, do you see any improvements?
User94: I'm trying to install via Live CD, and when I run installer I'm getting KDEinit could not launch /usr/bin/ubiquity
User65: User88 ok the 195 drivers work... for starters :P
User65: User94 try : kdesudo ubiquity
User94: ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ kdesudo ubiquity
User94: sudo: unable to execute /usr/bin/ubiquity: Input/output error
User65: User94 did you md5sum the iso and the disk?
User88: User65 cool
User94: No, do I need to?
User65: User88 14639 frames in 5.0 seconds
User65: User94 yep
User94: Do I need to be on windows for that?
User65: User88 according to glxgears :P
User65: User94 nope,just reboot and select the option on the boot menu
User94: Thanks, brb then.
User88: User65 that's smoking!
User65: User94 :)
User65: User88 yeah
User65: User88 my cards smokin too :P
User88: but the numbers are kind of arbitrary.. try running something graphic intensive
User88: ouch
User65: User88 on linux? haha... whats graphic intensive
User58: User92 i see some problems forst :D
User58: *first
User65: User88 any idea why nvidia-185-modaliases is cropping up in my upgrade?
User88: User65 blender rendering ??
User88: User65 did you have the repo driver install previously? uninstall it.
User65: User88 ill have to install blender... non kde app
User65: User88 ah..
User88: User65 after that uninstall you might have to go through the install of the new driver again to remedy it.
User65: User88 i hope its in the cache
User65: User88 you mean i remove it and reinstall it?
User65: (the 195 one)
User88: User65 remove the 185 and log out and back in.. if the problem is still there then reinstall the 195 driver and see if that fixes it.
User65: ok i removed it and reinstalled the 195..
User65: lets see
User72: Scunizi, shadeslayer, you must shut X down in order to install the nvidia driver and remove the old one first
User88: shadowhywind: I typically uninstall all the nvidia stuff from the repos then install the new one with X shut down like BluesKaj says.. I don't think the latest driver will even let you install unless your at cli with X down
User72: Scunizi, correct the existing driver will always be the default , even if you use apackage manager to install
User72: and the existing driver can not be removed if it's running X
User88: too many problems when mixing installed nvida bits from the repo and the binary driver..
User72: ok , time to head out to our friday night jam ... have fun
User65: User72 bye
User88: cya
User88: mixed metaphors.. see ya vs. cya
User95: anyone know how to sort desktop icons under kubuntu netbook?
User88: pickup netbook .. shake gently.. put down.. repeat until satisfied
User95: it's a netbook not an etcha sketch
User88: :)  sorry 'bout that .. right mouse click doesn't have any options?
User95: nope
User95: none of the obvious stuff exists
User88: User95 google isn't helping me today..
User95: uncle google nor aunt bing have helped either
User95: :/
User65: User95 the netbook edition is kinda weird.... i couldnt seem to figure out the desktop containment either
User65: User95 ha... theyre arch enemies.... :P
User95: i also find it buggy that when i add favorite icons they disappear after a reboot
User95: thanks all
User87: !netsplit
User67: netsplit is when two IRC servers of the same network (like freenode) disconnect from each other, so users on one server stop seeing users on the other. If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit
User94: Sorry it took me so long
User94: I got the KDEinit when I tried to open IRC, but the installer now opens..
User65: User94 nice
User94: But I have other problems now..
User65: User94 well im just leaving...
User94: IRC has the KDEinit error, and the installer has no automatic partition
User94: Oh..
User65: User94 there are other people who will help out though..
User94: Any names?
User65: User94 oh just keep asking,if someone knows theyll answer
User94: Thanks
User65: User94 btw did you check the DVD?
User94: I ran the integrity check.. no errors
User65: User94 and what about the ISO?
User94: There was no option for an ISO check..
User94: I'm booting from CD if that makes a difference
User65: User94 ok open a terminal and type : md5sum /path/to/your/downloaded/iso
User65: User94 yeah you can run a check from the cd
User94: ISO is on windows :s should I download it on here?
User96: hi, is there a way to delete the images from a pdf?
User58: beta coming dec 22 right ?
User58: *beta 2
User65: User94 just navigate to the place where you downloaded the iso
User65: User94 then open a konsole and type : md5sum : and drop the iso on the terminal,check the output it generates with the one on the kubuntu download site
User65: !md5sum | Nickoe
User67: User94 To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows
User94: Thanks
User65: User94 first link is your best bet :)
User94: How can I create an ext4 partition? PartitionMagic doesn't support it
User54: !ext4
User54: hmm, no info
User94: I have kubuntu 9.10 installed on my other computer
User94: and it had an ext4 already..
User54: User94 I guess http://ext4.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Ext4_Howto#Creating_ext4_filesystems is the thing to read
User94: Thanks
User54: create the partition, then do that to create the filesystem
User54: though it'll only work if you're on 9.10
User54: well, only work reliably
User94: Wow, now when I open terminal it says /bin/bash crashed
User54: oh dear...
User94: I never had problems on the other installation
User54: that doesn't sound too good
User94: Should I redownload and reburn an iso?
User54: was this an upgrade?
User94: No
User54: hrm, odd
User94: Side by side with windows xp
User54: does it say how bash crashed?
User94: Doesn't say
User94: Warning: Program '/bin/bash' crashed.
User54: Hrm. Actually yeah, tbh, the first thing I'd try is to redownload and reinstall
User54: assuming  you don't have many files/apps to lose
User94: I haven't even installed it yet
User94: So there's nothing to lose
User54: heh, I see
User94: I don't want the desktop cd, correct?
User54: well, depends what you're after...
User94: I want it to be installed on a partition
User54: I was under the impression that the desktop CD could do that, but must confess it's been years since I've bothered with dual-boot
User94: Check here if you need the alternate desktop CD. This CD does not include the Live CD, instead it uses a text-based installer.
User94: Doesn't really explain
User54: I think the Live CD can install a dual-boot system
User54: I wonder if the bot knows
User54: !dualboot
User67: Dual boot instructions: x86/AMD64: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBootHowTo - MACs: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBookPro https://help.ubuntu.com/community/YabootConfigurationForMacintoshPowerPCsDualBoot
User94: help page says Live CD
User94: 39 minutes on the download >_<
User97: i'm looking for the mysql client libraries - does anyone know of their name in the (k)ubuntu repos?
User97: also, sure is quit/join in here.
User98: User97 aptitude search mysql
User94: I'll check for you lanec
User97: mkay
User97: libsqlxx-2.3c2a?
User41: User97 that doesn't sound right from the version
User94: I don't have it, wouldn't know...
User97: what about libsqlxx-dev?
User94: Thats development
User94: Is that what you need?
User58: ah finally i found it, i can assign program to a specific desktop and it cant be move to other desktop KDE rox :D
User41: User97 just mysql-cleint should do, it's a meta package based on the latest version
User41: mysql-client*, sry, typo
User94: !ext4
User41: User97 what do you need the client for?
User97: User41 that looks like it! thanks all!
User94: User41 How can I create a new ext4 partition?
User41: User97 OK, nice you got it :)
User97: i'm writing a db frontend with qt
User41: User94 by formatting it, or by converting it, let me check
User97: and I just reinstalled kubuntu :(
User94: I need to convert it, I don't have one
User94: User41 Did you find anything? And PartitionMagic doesn't work :s
User41: User94 no, it's done on upgrade from Jaunty to Karmic usually
User94: User41 So.. is there any way I can get one?
User41: sinc the ext4 filesystem only was released in Karmic officially
User41: User94 are you already running Karmic?
User94: Yes, not an upgrade either
User94: Nor have I installed it yet
User94: since I have no ext4 partition
User41: User94 see here: http://ext4.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Ext4_Howto#For_people_who_are_running_Ubuntu
User41: there is a big explanation, and I guess there must be quite a few threads in the forums, too
User41: User94 wait, I don't understand: you already have Karmic installed?
User94: User41 No, I'm running it from a booted CD in demo mode
User41: ah, now I get it
User41: what is running on the PC then?
User94: User41 Also, shadeslayer suggested I redownload the ISO, I'm having KDEinit issues
User94: Win XP
User41: User94 do you have free space on your hard disk?
User94: yes, about 200GB
User41: oh, great, that's more than enough to add a Kubuntu :)
User94: User41 it's just a matter of getting the ext4 partition for me
User41: User94 once you have launched the installation mode it suggest the various installation possibilities, choose the dual install alongside Windows
User94: User41 mine only has full installation(all mem usage) and manually select partitions
User94: User41 And there is no way for me to add an ext4 from the manual menu
User41: User94 then there is something worng with that CD, I also suggest you get a new iso and brun another CD then
User94: User41 It's downloading already :)
User41: User94 you should have 3 options: all the HD, alongside Windows and Manual installation
User41: I guess it's the alongside Windows you want, right?
User94: User41 Yes
User41: which you can also do with the Manual installation btw
User94: User41 is it maybe because my HD is seperated into Recovery partition (FAT32) and NTFS?
User94: Most of the memory is in the NTFS
User94: the rest is in recovery
User41: once you have resized the HD to make space for Kubuntu, it will ask you what filesystem you want to use, thre you choose ext4
User41: at the very moment you partition and before formatting the new partitions
User94: User41 What i mean is this: Around 310GB in NTFS, around 4GB in recovery
User94: Mamrok: and thats all my memory
User41: User94 that's the disk space, not the Memory
User41: memory would be the amount of RAM you have
User94: User41 Yes sorry, I have a bad habit of calling RAM and memory both memory
User41: don't, memory is RAM, the rest is not memory but disk space
User94: User41 See, I did it right there.
User94: User41 Well, is there anything I can do in the 15 minutes the ISO has remaining?
User41: User94 no, not really
User94: User41 Ok, so how will I create the new ext4 again?
User94: User41 I want to get this right before I reboot
User41: User94 it will ask you once you have resized your Hard disk, when you are going to format the newly created partitions
User94: User41 And I resize it in Administrative tools?
User94: Assuming you've used win xp
User41: first choose installation alongside the existing Windows, then it will resize the Hard disk, then make the new partiotion and that's were you choose the filesystem
User94: User41 Ah, ok.
User41: User94 no, let the Kubuntu Installation ahlde that, not in WIndows
User41: boot the PC with the Live CD, then follow the guide :)
User41: handle*
User94: User41 Ok, thanks for all your help :)
User41: User94 the only thing you need to be careful with is not choosing the complete Hard disk
User94: User41 Yeah, but it wouldn't be too harsh considering I just had to format it not a week ago..
User41: User94 OK. It's bed time for me now, you can ask somebody else if you have other questions, right? Just ask :)
User94: User41 Yeah, thanks. G'night
User41: and don't try installing Windows after Linux, since Windows usually thinks it's the only one and overwrites Linux
User41: good night and have fun :)
User94: Thanks
User99: Whats the difference between apt-get upgrade and apt-get dist-upgrade?
User54: User99 http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/fedora-35/apt-get-question-dist-upgrade-vs-upgrade-219920/
User100: the "dist"
User54: but in Ubuntu it's best to use the upgrade manager rather than dist-upgrade
User94: If I remove the live CD in demo mode, will kubuntu stop working? (stupid question)
User54: (as opposed to Debian, where dist-upgrade is the preferred option)
User54: User94 it shouldn't do
User54: the OS should be loaded into RAM, in theory at least, but I've never tried it myse;f
User94: Lol, thanks
User94: I just finished downloading the ISO, and don't want to lose it
User58: whats the best multimedia player for kubuntu ?
User100: Why my Koqueror cant open the pages ?
User100: WHY???
User54: User58 I like Amarok2
User54: VLC is also a popular option on Linux.
User58: User54 and what do u think @ kaffeine ?
User58: User54 yes but there is a bug with fullscren now
User54: I don't like kaffeine much. The interface is very limited.
User54: but it does work for most purposes.
User94: User54 I can't even open my disk drive >_<
User54: Oh. Hrm.
User54: Got a USB disk handy? ;)
User54: either that or dump the ISO on your XP drive.
User94: Now I get to save it to flash drive, boot windows, burn it, boot kubuntu
User99: User54 thanks
kubuntu
