[12:14] <Mattjc> I am running asterisk on a ubuntu and would like to know the best way to get ubuntu to start automatically not get stuck on login
[12:14] <argonel> I-kido: x started, but its in 8-bit colour again
[12:15] <I-kido> argonel, and when u set default depth to 24 in xorg.conf
[12:15] <argonel> I-kido: i'll check the conf, i did choose 24 as the default depth via dpkg-reconfigure
[12:15] <Mattjc> no love from anyone
[12:15] <I-kido> aha
[12:16] <argonel> i wish kubuntu had kinfocenter
[12:16] <I-kido> argonel it has
[12:17] <I-kido> :0
[12:17] <argonel|kub> tired of walking from room to room :)
[12:18] <I-kido> lol
[12:18] <I-kido> argonel: Meny>System
[12:18] <argonel|kub> so i found kinfocenter
[12:18] <I-kido> Menu*
[12:18] <argonel|kub> it says 89x87 dpi 24 planes
[12:19] <argonel|kub> does not explain why the desktop picture looks like its in 256 colour mode
[12:20] <I-kido> argonel pastebin ur xorg.conf please
[12:22] <argonel|kub> I-kido: http://phpfi.com/209947
[12:22] <I-kido> tnx argonel
[12:23] <crackhead> question: how do i install/use firefox, when adept says it's already "installed", but it shows up as greyed out in the "add/remove programs" of the k-menu?
[12:23] <skywalker_> omg
[12:23] <I-kido> argonel try 1280x1024 instead of "1440x900"
[12:24] <argonel|kub> I-kido: to what end?
[12:24] <I-kido> look in your xorg.conf :)
[12:24] <crystufer2000> Hey, is there a program I can run to autoconfigure my menu for fluxbox?
[12:24] <skywalker_> how do I completely remove wine
[12:24] <argonel|kub> firstly, i don't have 1280x1024 in there at all, so i'd have to add it
[12:25] <SlackRat> use synaptic, option completely remove
[12:25] <Jucato> crackhead: if Firefox is installed, it should be in K Menu -> Internet
[12:25] <daft_> anyone know what the message "compiz: GLX_SGIX_fbconfig is missing" means?
[12:25] <argonel|kub> secondly, the aspect ratio is incorrect for this monitor
[12:25] <posingaspopular> argonel|kub: its not x
[12:25] <Jucato> skywalker_: if you uninstall wine, the ~/.wine directory still hangs around. you probably want to delete that if you're absolutely sure
[12:25] <posingaspopular> X ?
[12:26] <I-kido> argonel replace  "1440x900" by 1280x1024
[12:26] <argonel|kub> posingaspopular: i'm sorry, what?
[12:26] <argonel|kub> I-kido: for what purpose?
[12:26] <skywalker_> ok so it is uninstalled
[12:26] <I-kido> maybe ur monitor/driver can't handle 1440
[12:27] <I-kido> argonel  ^^
[12:27] <argonel|kub> I-kido: i should mention this setup was working for several months, until one day it stopped
[12:27] <skywalker_> I just reinstalled it anyway because one of my windows programe
[12:27] <argonel|kub> this is not mine, so the details are sketchy as to exactly why
[12:27] <posingaspopular> argonel|kub: you cant configure your aspect ratio in X?
[12:27] <skywalker_> wasent working right
[12:28] <argonel|kub> posingaspopular: the displayed aspect ratio is a function of your chosen resolution
[12:28] <I-kido> hmm, ok, argonel, maybe after a kernel update, u forgot to reinstall your graphics driver
[12:28] <argonel|kub> I-kido: i didn't do a kernel update, the machine's owner doesn't know how
[12:29] <influence> any good idea why Xorg is taking alot of CPU even though I have removed compiz?
[12:29] <crackhead> jucato: firefox is not in k-menu-->internet.. what should i do? (adept said it was "installed" when i searched for it there..)
[12:29] <argonel|kub> I-kido: even stranger, sometimes if i restart the xserver the display returns to normal. if it doesn't though, it gets stuck in 640x480x256 :)
[12:29] <Jucato> crackhead: try "sudo apt-get install firefox" in Konsole
[12:30] <crackhead> why am i trying it there, rather than adept?
[12:30] <I-kido> argonel, tis is too complicated for  a noob like me
[12:30] <I-kido> :0
[12:30] <Jucato> crackhead: to get more detailed error messages
[12:30] <Jucato> crackhead: or rather, if you want. just type in "firefox"
[12:30] <crackhead> package.. not available.. referred by another package..
[12:30] <Jucato> to check if it's really installed
[12:31] <Jucato> hm..
[12:31] <crackhead> command not found
[12:31] <Jucato> so it's not installed...
[12:31] <crackhead> so, how do i install it?
[12:31] <Jucato> crackhead: please check if you have your repositories enabled. specially the main ones
[12:31] <Jucato> !repositories | crackhead
[12:31] <crackhead> where? in adept?

[12:32] <Jucato> yep, if you want to work in Adept.
[12:32] <crackhead> how come i had enabled them in another kde session and now they're not still enabled and i have to re-enable them?
[12:33] <Jucato> um.. I don't know...
[12:34] <goear> Hey, I have a little problem, I dont get the whole package list or at least I think so, when Im on my other computer running kubuntu I get much more packages, maybe because there are more for that distrib.. Im not sure.
[12:34] <goear> anyone knows why it is?

[01:07] <eilker>  i wanna record my desktop as a video file, how can i do it with vlc player ?or with any other tool ?
[01:09] <zblach> quick question. i've a whole bunch of files nested in folders where the files have the same names, but different folders
[01:09] <zblach> can i remove the files only?
[01:10] <SlackRat> biab
[01:11] <arcasa> Hey all.
[01:12] <arcasa> Morning, evening or night.
[01:12] <Minataku> zblach: I believe you can do this: " rm */* "
[01:12] <Minataku> Which should delete files and leave directories intact
[01:12] <Minataku> Of course if you need to go deeper just add another /*
[01:13] <Minataku> If you don't want to delete the files in the base directory use " rm ./*/* " and so on
[01:13] <arcasa> Ouch... The power of conversation appears to have no effect!
[01:13] <Minataku> arcasa: Your IRQ was deferred
[01:13] <Minataku> lol
[01:13] <zblach> Minataku: there's a whole bunch of nesting
[01:13] <zblach> but i have decided on a solution
[01:13] <Minataku> zblach: Do it for as deep as you need
[01:13] <zblach> variable depth :S
[01:13] <zblach> but i do have a solution
[01:13] <Minataku> Then step back one by one
[01:13] <arcasa> My IRQ? :(
[01:13] <zblach> tree -fi | grep FILENAME > delete
[01:14] <zblach> and the del everything in delete
[01:14] <zblach> thanks anyways
[01:14] <Hirvinen> zblach, Minataku: If you only want to do something to files, you should use find . -type f -exec
[01:14] <Minataku> My method works too, I've done it before
[01:14] <Minataku> Since without -f, rm won't delete directories
[01:14] <Hirvinen> Or use xargs to pass that list of files to a program.
[01:15] <zblach> Hirvinen: that's also good
[01:15] <eilker> !kiba
[01:15] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about kiba - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[01:28] <prak> does anyone know how to see and install individual packages separately in konsole?
[01:28] <posingaspopular> what does nano do?
[01:28] <Rob-West> its a text editor

[01:30] <epimeth> what packages do I need for apache2 with php and curl (don't need or want mysql)?
[01:30] <epimeth> apache2-mod-php ?
[01:30] <zblach> do you really want curl?
[01:30] <epimeth> something like that, right?
[01:30] <epimeth> yes
[01:31] <epimeth> not want... need
[01:31] <epimeth> :-)
[01:31] <zblach> kk
[01:31] <epimeth> tho I'm pretty sure curl comes with the regular php, no?
[01:32] <Rob-West> i even an use my new video card
[01:32] <hawk_> what would the mount command i have mounted them before it just says i dont have access to them
[01:32] <Rob-West> it may be old but its still good for basic kubuntu

[01:33] <hawk_> *before
[01:34] <zblach> i know nothing about php
[01:34] <zblach> i was just reading an article about how insecure curl was
[01:34] <zblach> and the name drew my attention
[01:34] <hawk_> what do you need to know about php
[01:35] <epimeth> hawk_: just what the package name is for apache2/php
[01:35] <epimeth> and the php needs to have curl support
[01:36] <epimeth> zblach: curl is just a wrapper for a tcp socket... I think we all know those aren't secure :-0
[01:36] <epimeth> nor do they need to be
[01:36] <hawk_> epimeth: sorry i dont know anything about that

[01:53] <epimeth> that works, too
[01:53] <epimeth> :-)
[01:53] <Rob-West> :)
[01:53] <Jucato> ctrl+alt+del actually doesn't work...
[01:53] <DaveQB> sudo /etc/init.d/kdm stop
[01:53] <DaveQB> yeah thats it
[01:53] <Rob-West> can i do it when im in
[01:53] <DaveQB> it just restarts X
[01:53] <Jucato> Rob-West: no
[01:53] <DaveQB> :)
[01:53] <Rob-West> y not
[01:53] <Jucato> Ctrl+Alt+Backspace is the one that restarts X
[01:53] <DaveQB> in what ?
[01:54] <DaveQB> you need to to run sudo /etc/init.d/kdm stop
[01:54] <Jucato> Rob-West: because if you do that while you're in KDE, it will shutdown KDE immediaely
[01:54] <hawk_> is there i good list of native games for linux
[01:54] <Jucato> Rob-West: so do it in one of the consoles (not Konsole)
[01:54] <DaveQB> yeah, best to log out and do it

[01:55] <Rob-West> whats the command
[01:55] <prak> if i have installed an application that require opening with wine, where would the application usually be installed?
[01:56] <Jucato> Rob-West: logout, Ctrl+Alt+F1, login to the command line, "sudo /etc/init.d/kdm stop"
[01:56] <DaveQB> prak  ~/.wine/fake_c/Program Files ?
[01:56] <DaveQB> what Jucato said :)
[01:56] <Jucato> prak: if Wine doesn't create a K Menu entry for it, it should be in ~/.wine/drive_c/
[01:56] <Jucato> O.o
[01:56] <Rob-West> sudo /etc/init.d/kdm k thank
[01:56] <Rob-West> thanks
[01:58] <muru>  slackrat: thanks .. i sucessfully installed UBUNTU
[01:58] <SlackRat> cool, just now?
[01:59] <muru>  ... Yes
[01:59] <SlackRat> congrats!
[02:00] <muru>  .. btw.. this Adept updater says there are lot of updates available.. but how do i know what is needed and what is not
[02:01] <SlackRat> muru,  generally let it install everything , their system updates.....are you running dapper , or edgy?
[02:02] <muru>  Dapper
[02:02] <Rob-West> wow it looks different
[02:02] <SlackRat> no problems then, it wont update by default to any newer version, and it keep s up with security updates, latest package versions
[02:02] <SlackRat> etc
[02:03] <SlackRat> did you install off the 6.0.6 or the <IP_ADDRESS>  cds?
[02:05] <muru>  hmm.. not sure.. how can i check
[02:05] <SlackRat> the cd?
[02:05] <Jucato> !version
[02:05] <ubotu> To find out what version of Ubuntu you have, type  lsb_release -a  in a !shell
[02:05] <muru> i burned the live CD a week back and did install from it
[02:06] <SlackRat> a week, ok cool, i have the older one, without the poiint one
[02:06] <SlackRat> if i install its a LOT of updates
[02:06] <SlackRat> you have the latest, youre just catching up with anything since it came out
[02:06] <SlackRat> most updates are shorter
[02:07] <SlackRat> few pkgs now and then
[02:07] <Rob-West> ok how do i restart x
[02:08] <muru> .. .Yes it is 6.06.1 LTS... but the adept shows still there are lot of updates
[02:09] <ian_> Is it normal for the waiting cursor to blink rapidly? In gnome and KDE as far as I can tell.
[02:09] <Jucato> Rob-West: Ctrl+Alt+Backspace (after logging out preferrably)
[02:09] <SlackRat> there have been a few since it was released  late last summer
[02:09] <SlackRat> let it update
[02:10] <muru> ... its not like windows updates.. right?... sometime .. it screws up everything
[02:10] <SlackRat> tends to fix any lil bugs people found  a long the way plus any securty updates
[02:10] <Rob-West> i dont wanna log out
[02:10] <SlackRat> not usually, not at the moment...there was one way back that knocked out peoples X windows for a day
[02:11] <SlackRat> but it was fixed in a day by the devs
[02:11] <SlackRat> it tends to run better when kept up to date
[02:11] <muru> ..  cool. .let me try my luck :)
[02:11] <SlackRat> you;ll miss all the lil bugs that got caught since june
[02:12] <SlackRat> heh, not much luck to it....may take a  lil time but then you might get one or two a week, three or four pkgs only
[02:12] <Rob-West> yees
[02:12] <Rob-West> now it works
[02:12] <Rob-West> high res looks cool
[02:12] <Jucato> Rob-West: you can't restart X without KDE being restarted anyway. Restart X = forced KDE logout. so better logout manually first
[02:13] <muru> ... thanks... You guys made my install very smooth.. i couldnt believe it... you guys are GREAT
[02:15] <SlackRat> well, enjoy, learn, and if you can, pay it forward, heh

[02:47] <pgraves> Guys, I just installed Kubuntu again on a desktop... and now Im trying to customize it visually.... my first target is the login window...... by default its a light blue background with a grey window asking for Username/Password and the word "Kubuntu" in huge blue letters above that..... how can I change this?
[02:47] <Yasim> A BOT???
[02:47] <Jucato> !ubotu | Yasim
[02:47] <ubotu> Yasim: I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots
[02:47] <hawk_>  how do i get Deluge to install adept manager is not finding it and a have the univeral thing turned on
[02:48] <Yasim> Wow... a bot talks to me...
[02:48] <Jucato> hawk_: what is deluge?
[02:48] <Yasim> **speaks
[02:48] <Jucato> !changethemes | pgraves
[02:48] <ubotu> pgraves: [Ubuntu]  Install gnome-themes or go to menu, system settings, appearance. [KDE]  For a good KDE guide, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CustomizeKubuntu
[02:48] <Jucato> pgraves: scroll down to the KDM Theme section
[02:49] <hawk_> jucato is a bittorrent client and the site says that it is in the repetory
[02:49] <Jucato> !info deluge-torrent
[02:49] <ubotu> deluge-torrent: A Bittorrent client written in Python/PyGTK. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.4.0-2~edgy1 (edgy-backports), package size 1466 kB, installed size 3888 kB
[02:49] <Jucato> hawk_: ^^^
[02:49] <Yasim> !ubotu | Yasim
[02:52] <mefisto__> hawk_: you really confused me. I thought you wanted deluge to install adept for you.
[02:52] <Yasim> Jucato : I've traslated it already
[02:52] <Yasim> but the dicctionary is still in english.
[02:52] <Ash-Fox> How does one dump the names of all the packages installed on the system (preferibly without version info)?
[02:52] <Jucato> Ash-Fox: "dpkg -L" I think
[02:52] <hawk_> mefisto no i want it the other way around srry
[02:52] <mefisto__> Yasim: there is a wizard in openoffice that installs dictionaries. In the file menu
[02:53] <hawk_> you see it is not showing up
[02:53] <Jucato> hawk_: the package name is deluge-torrent. it's possible that you don't have universe enabled, or if you just enabled it now, you didn't Fetch Updates
[02:53] <Yasim> mmm I can't see it.
[02:54] <hawk_> i have uviverse enabled
[02:54] <argonel> Ash-Fox: dpkg --get-selections
[02:54] <Jucato> Ash-Fox: that works too ^^^
[02:54] <Jucato> in fact, that's whay I'm using.. why didn't I say that lol
[02:54] <agent> Using LANG=en_US.UTF-8, KDE/QT applications do not show ISO 8859-2 characters, yet all other non-KDE/QT applications, including rxvt and xterm do show them fine. Why is this? Are the default fonts associated in KDE UTF8 broken? My KDE fonts are all "sans serif" with "monospace" as "fixed width" (in Control Center)
[02:54] <Ash-Fox> Thanks guys
[02:54] <Jucato> hawk_: can you pastebin your sources.list? I'm guessing the wrong universe is enabled
[02:55] <Yasim> mefisto__: I've found it, thanks!
[02:55] <hawk_> dos linux have a fire wall built into it and if it dos how do you shut it off
[02:55] <hawk_> i dont now how
[02:55] <hawk_> to pastbin
[02:57] <Jucato> !pastebin | hawk_
[02:57] <ubotu> hawk_: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #kubuntu channel topic)
[02:57] <mefisto__> hawk_: if you're using konversation, there should be a link to a pastebin at the top of this window
[03:00] <reldruh> does anybody here have their address book in kontact linked to kopete accounts?
[03:00] <hawk_> where is the sources.list att
[03:01] <Jucato> reldruh: I do
[03:01] <Jucato> hawk_: in /etc/apt/
[03:01] <Jucato>  /etc/apt/sources.list
[03:01] <reldruh> Jucato: I'm trying to get it set up, but when I tell it to use my address book name for a contact, the name goes blank, like there isn't anything there
[03:01] <reldruh> Jucato: but in the address book all my contacts have names
[03:02] <Jucato> reldruh: did you "link" the kopete contact w/ the addressbook contact first?
[03:03] <reldruh> Jucato: yes. Rght click on a contact in kopete, go to properties, click change address book link and find their name
[03:03] <hawk_> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/8031/ there you go
[03:03] <Jucato> reldruh: hm...
[03:03] <reldruh> Jucato: in the list, it's all fine. Names and email addresses all displayed correctly
[03:03] <reldruh> Jucato: this happens for aim and google talk accounts
[03:04] <Jucato> so you see the name of the Address book contact at the top of the Properties page?
[03:05] <reldruh> the title of the properties window is 'properties of meta contact' Under address book link the correct name is listed
[03:06] <Jucato> hawk_: did you Fetch Updates already?
[03:06] <hawk_> yes
[03:07] <hawk_> and i just did it agion
[03:07] <Rob-West> who was i talking to about html editors
[03:08] <Jucato> hawk_: aah!!!
[03:08] <Jucato> hawk_: enable the edgy-backports repository!! :)
[03:08] <hawk_> how do i do that
[03:09] <Jucato> how do you usually add/enable repositories? Adept? or manually editing the file?
[03:09] <hawk_> adept
[03:09] <Jucato> hawk_: deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ edgy-backports main restricted universe multiverse <--- you need to enable this one
[03:09] <Jucato> in Adept
[03:10] <coffee> hello all
[03:10] <reldruh> Jucato: any ideas on why it might not be working?
[03:11] <n8k99> mmm, coffee
[03:11] <Jucato> reldruh: sorry, no...
[03:11] <reldruh> Jucato: oh well. Thanks for trying
[03:11] <hawk_> jucato: thanks it worked
[03:12] <Jucato> :)
[03:12] <coffee> would anyone be willing to help out with some wireless prob's on new install?  (i've been at it for a few hours)
[03:13] <reldruh> coffee: I'm in the process of doing the same thing. What's your problem?
[03:14] <hawk_> do kubuntu have a firewall
[03:14] <coffee> edgy 6.1 install on sony desktop, doesn't recognize wireless usb adaptor., wired ethernet works fine

[03:15] <reldruh> coffee: doesn't see it at all? Have you tried ndiswrapper? Do you know the chipset?

[03:16] <hawk_> guarddog
[03:17] <Jucato> hawk_: you have to install it first.
[03:17] <hawk_> oh
[03:17] <reldruh> coffee: ?
[03:19] <reldruh> does anybody know why my wireless card would give me problems on startup, but work perfectly if I log out then log back in?
[03:25] <ComputerHermit> !kde

[03:33] <matute> Hola!!! necesito ayuda sobre los driver de nvidia en kubuntu
[03:34] <mememe> I need help instilling programs
[03:34] <mememe> I oprn the .tat.gz folder but what do i click on after extract?
[03:35] <neo_> 'morning
[03:35] <Morbo> Go to konsole
[03:35] <Morbo> cd to the folder
[03:35] <mememe> ok...
[03:36] <asaup> hi all
[03:36] <Morbo> Usually, you do "./configure"
[03:36] <Morbo> Provided no errors "make"
[03:36] <Morbo> then "sudo make install"
[03:36] <Morbo> What are you trying to intsall, anyways?
[03:36] <asaup> can you rememember me the multimedia packages page please
[03:36] <asaup> i dont remember it
[03:36] <Morbo> !multimedia
[03:36] <ubotu> For multimedia codecs see: https://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html and for applications see this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MultimediaApplications
[03:36] <asaup> thanx
[03:36] <Morbo> np
[03:36] <mememe> mozilla firefox and yahoo messenger
[03:37] <Morbo> mememe: OK, there's an easier way
[03:37] <mememe> when i click on the shell script
[03:37] <mememe> it gives me the code, but i dont know what to do with it
[03:37] <Morbo> for firefox, sudo aptitude install mozilla-firefox
[03:38] <Morbo> For Yahoo Messenger, I'd suggest using kopete, which comes with kubuntu
[03:38] <mememe> the bin file?
[03:38] <Morbo> mememe: Read what I said aboe.
[03:38] <nonuda_> mememe: what program?
[03:38] <Morbo> mozilla-firefox exists in the repositories, mememe
[03:39] <Morbo> If you install it that way, keeping it up-to-date is much easier
[03:39] <nonuda_> but u must connect to internet
[03:39] <mememe> Sorry, I don't know what that means---I am really new to kubuntu
[03:39] <Morbo> mememe: OK.  Are you at a command line?
[03:40] <Morbo> Also called a terminal
[03:40] <Morbo> command line is the evil name ;)
[03:40] <mememe> ok--got that
[03:40] <Morbo> Type "sudo aptitude install mozilla-firefox"
[03:40] <Morbo> For yahoo messenger, kopete should be installed already
[03:41] <Morbo> kopete handles a bunch of different IM protocols like AIM, Jabber/gtalk
[03:41] <mememe> what is kopete?
[03:41] <fiyawerx> anyone know how you can clear your dns cache?
[03:41] <ErikTheRed> is there a decent cd ripper for kde other than kaudiocreator?
[03:41] <mefisto__> can the k/ubuntu installer resize both fat32 and ntfs partitions (assuming there is enough free space and disk is healthy)?
[03:41] <MHobbit> Kopete is an IM program that can connect to many IM protcols.
[03:42] <MHobbit> s/protcols/protocols/;
[03:42] <fiyawerx> mefisto__: i did ntfs no problem during it
[03:42] <mefisto__> what about fat32? anyone?
[03:42] <intelikey> mefisto__ parted can yes.
[03:42] <fiyawerx> if it can do ntfs i'd hope it could hehe
[03:43] <mefisto__> intelikey: is parted used in the installer?
[03:43] <Rob-West> can someone help me
[03:43] <intelikey> mefisto__ yes
[03:43] <intelikey> Rob-West quanta+ ?
[03:44] <mememe> so after i go to terminal, at the black screen the prompt says (i think) "ubuntu@ubuntu" and i type "sudo aptitude install mozilla-firefox"?
[03:44] <Rob-West> yea
[03:44] <Rob-West> i need the repo for it
[03:45] <intelikey> main
[03:46] <Rob-West> i found it
[03:46] <intelikey> screem - A GNOME website development environment  ?
[03:46] <mememe> Morbo?
[03:46] <Rob-West> i found what i wanted
[03:46] <intelikey> august - Tcl/Tk HTML editor
[03:46] <intelikey> bluefish - advanced Gtk+ HTML editor
[03:46] <Morbo> mememe: yes
[03:46] <mefisto__> Rob-West: if you search for "html editor" and "web dev" in adept, you'll find quite a few
[03:47] <Rob-West> well i found what i wanted thanks
[03:47] <mememe> Ok, thanks, but how does it know what folder it is in?
[03:47] <intelikey> no it's not.   that's not what you want.   you want something else
[03:47] <intelikey> you want vim
[03:48] <intelikey> or is it  macs ....
[03:48] <intelikey> :)
[03:48] <Morbo> emacs.  I almost had to get a lobotomy because of it.
[03:50] <mememe> and Morbo- what is the default password to username 'root'  -  I thought it was 'toor' but that didn't work
[03:51] <intelikey> mememe there is no password for root
[03:51] <intelikey> can't login as root          (unless you change that)
[03:51] <Morbo> Just type in the password you set whilst installing
[03:52] <mememe> i didnt install--live cd using external hd to save stuff on
[03:52] <pgraves> Ok, Phase 1: Setting Up Different Login Screen Accomplished... THANK YOU!.... Now I want to try to change the splash screen that loads after I type in my User/Pass... I downloaded a bunch of Splash Screens from the place that I got the Login Themes, but I dont know how to install the splace screens... any help? or any docs?
[03:52] <intelikey> mememe then there is no password piriod.
[03:53] <pgraves> Note: Im using Kubuntu Dapper
[03:54] <intelikey> !splash | pgraves
[03:54] <ubotu> pgraves: To change the Gnome splash screen, use !gnome-splashscreen-manager or change the GConf key /apps/gnome-session/options/splash_image using !gconf-editor.
[03:54] <ErikTheRed> does anyone know of any decent alternatives to kaudiocreator?
[03:54] <intelikey> oh that's 'no_me specific... sorry
[03:55] <Jucato> pgraves: it's called ksplash
[03:55] <Jucato> pgraves: you can download some ksplash themes from http://kde-look.org and then install them using System Settings -> Splash Screen
[03:55] <dewey> good day mates
[03:55] <Jucato> pgraves: no need to extract the contents of the .tar.gz
[03:56] <dewey> say is kde 4.0 working in kubuntu?
[03:56] <Rob-West> how do i lock the screen
[03:56] <intelikey> kde 4.0 is not released yet
[03:56] <dewey> hmmm kde 4 alpha then?
[03:56] <Jucato> Rob-West: K Menu -> Lock Session or Ctrl+Alt+L
[03:56] <Jucato> dewey: not even alpha yet
[03:57] <intelikey> ctrl+alt+L
[03:57] <pgraves> Im in System Settings but I dont see "Splash Screen"
[03:58] <intelikey> Jucato dapper ^
[03:58] <pgraves> I tried to do a Apt-get install ksplash but it said I already have the newest installed
[03:58] <Rob-West> now to test my video card
[03:58] <Jucato> oh
[03:58] <aseigo> pgraves: if you type "splash" in the search bar, do you get anything at all?
[03:58] <Jucato> pgraves: it's in there, somewhere... I don't have dapper. you can use the search function in System Settings...
[03:59] <aseigo> yo
[03:59] <Jucato> oooh yoga :)
[03:59] <Rob-West> how do i test my video card
[03:59] <Rob-West> to make sure it works
[03:59] <draik> How do I make Kubuntu stop using the onboard audio and switch to the sound card instead?
[04:00] <aseigo> draik: for arts, you can do that in the sound system control panel
[04:00] <aseigo> draik: as long as the kernel sees the card, it should be listed on the hardware  page
[04:00] <draik> aseigo: I tried that. Wouldn't work
[04:00] <intelikey> draik there is also a wiki on sound stuff
[04:00] <draik> !sound
[04:00] <ubotu> If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ARTS is running, by going to K Menu -> System Settings -> Sound System and making sure "Enable the sound system" is checked. If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[04:00] <mefisto__> what's the conventional wisdom on medibuntu? Is it "not recommended" by the k/ubuntu people? (legal issues aside)
[04:00] <aseigo> draik: for other engines/systems you need to configure them individually
[04:01] <draik> aseigo: Thank you
[04:01] <aseigo> draik: so.. e.g. for xine you need to configure xine
[04:01] <draik> I will try that
[04:01] <aseigo> and GOD i can't wait for phonon so we can stop =that= particularly brand of insanity
[04:01] <swanfl> has anyone tried the latest feisty fawn? how is it? any problems?
[04:01] <aseigo> "so .. go to these 8 different hidden places and configure the same damn thing over and over again."
[04:01] <pgraves> if I go to K>Run "KSplash" it appears to show the splash screen, not give me an option to change it
[04:02] <aseigo> swanfl: working well for me...
[04:02] <Jucato> mefisto__: it's a 3rd party project. therefore not officially supported
[04:02] <swanfl> thanks aseigo
[04:02] <intelikey> making the card you want the default card   slot=0  is a good place to start draik,  howto is on the wiki
[04:02] <swanfl> no issues yet?
[04:02] <Jucato> pgraves: try System Settings -> Appearance or System Settings -> Desktop
[04:02] <aseigo> swanfl: they've even finally (just the other day) uploaded new x.org packages so that xephyr works again on x86-64.. .yay!
[04:02] <Jucato> aseigo: nice! :)
[04:02] <mefisto__> Jucato: yes but I was wondering if it was discouraged at all
[04:03] <Jucato> mefisto__: well, it's sort of a separate distro right?
[04:03] <mefisto__> Jucato: like automatix
[04:03] <Jucato> ah hm..
[04:03] <Jucato> let me check
[04:03] <Rob-West> whats the command to test a video card in ubuntu
[04:03] <Morbo> glxgears, maybe
[04:03] <mefisto__> Jucato: it's multimedia packages
[04:03] <intelikey> Rob-West ?
[04:04] <Jucato> mefisto__: ah then it has the same warning for any 3rd-party repository/package. Use at your own risk.
[04:04] <Jucato> mefisto__: but so far, no warning like Automatix
[04:04] <swanfl> what about the bug where you can't change the display resolution by doing ctrl-alt kpplus or minus?
[04:04] <intelikey> glxgears -iaknowledgethatthisisnotabeancemarktool  or something like that.
[04:04] <Rob-West> i need open gl
[04:04] <pgraves> DONE
[04:05] <pgraves> Phase II - Complete
[04:05] <Jucato> glxgears -printfps
[04:05] <pgraves> Ok.... FINAL Phase
[04:05] <Jucato> pgraves: found it?
[04:05] <pgraves> Yeah, found it
[04:05] <Jucato> pgraves: where was it under?
[04:06] <pgraves> System Settings>Desktop then in the left pane theres a "Splash Screen" option
[04:06] <Jucato> ah ok. in Edgy, they moved it out of Desktop
[04:06] <Rob-West> ok i need open gl first
[04:07] <pgraves> Now... When I downloading the Login Themes & the Splash Screens, I also downloaded Boot Splash Screens.... Any idea how to install those?
[04:07] <pgraves> downloaded*
[04:07] <Jucato> pgraves: unfortunately, those are more difficult to chnage
[04:07] <Jucato> !usplash | pgraves
[04:07] <ubotu> pgraves: To select the usplash artwork you want, use "sudo update-alternatives --config usplash-artwork.so && sudo update-initramfs -u" - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/USplashCustomizationHowto for adding your custom artwork
[04:07] <estebandido> hello... can anyone tell me if kubuntu-ppc will install correctly on a 64-bit G5?
[04:07] <intelikey> right-click .... point click.   right-click  ...
[04:08] <Jucato> pgraves: you can't use bootsplash themes from KDE-Look unless they're made specifically for USplash
[04:08] <intelikey> estebandido while i admitedly have not tested that.   it should.
[04:09] <pgraves> hmmm
[04:09] <pgraves> oh well
[04:09] <freality> a G5 is Intel-based, I;d think it uses the nomal 64 bit edition.
[04:09] <pgraves> Oh, also... can I have different "Desktop Icons" for different virtual desktops?
[04:09] <intelikey> basicly that's the same as installing i386  on a k8
[04:09] <estebandido> no, i bought it before apple went intel
[04:10] <estebandido> intelikey: i just spent two weeks on a gentoo installation that "should" have worked
[04:10] <Jucato> pgraves: afaik,no
[04:10] <mefisto__> pgraves: not a bad idea though
[04:10] <pgraves> it'd be nice to be able to configure a path for each desktop
[04:10] <estebandido> i'm on ubuntu now, and would love to have it on my mac
[04:11] <intelikey> estebandido as i said.   i haven't tested that.      no apples here mate
[04:11] <lontra> can you install kde 4 development snapshots in feisty?
[04:11] <freality> if the liveCD works, then it'll install
[04:11] <estebandido> i'm so frustrated, i've considered selling the machine
[04:13] <freality> estebandito. I don't know much about Macs and linux. but http://www.linuxactionshow.com is run by a couple guys that switched to linux from a mac.
[04:13] <intelikey> freality it'll install in some places where the live CD wont run
[04:14] <Rob-West> ok how do i install opengl for an nvidia video card in ubntu
[04:14] <Rob-West> kubuntu*
[04:14] <estebandido> freality: too late to go back... i've wiped the partition table
[04:14] <intelikey> !ati | Rob-West
[04:14] <ubotu> Rob-West: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[04:14] <estebandido> it's linux or the curb
[04:14] <estebandido> oh, wait, i read that wrong
[04:18] <n8k99> linux runs pretty well on a mac
[04:18] <n8k99> only thing is you don't get Flash
[04:18] <Mena> HI
[04:19] <Mena> stdin, are you here
[04:19] <intelikey> n8k99 so there is nothing missing really  :)     kool
[04:19] <Mena> intelikey,
[04:19] <intelikey> Mena
[04:20] <Mena> intelikey, i had a prob with gueb bec of renistall xp and i did as on th ewiki page but nothing happnend
[04:20] <n8k99> pretty much- have had kubuntu on my powerbook since hoary
[04:20] <Mena> gurb*
[04:20] <Mena> !gurb
[04:20] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about gurb - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:20] <intelikey> still no grub prompt at boot ?
[04:20] <Mena> intelikey, yes
[04:21] <intelikey> ?
[04:21] <Mena> intelikey, i installed it on root
[04:21] <Mena> intelikey, or that will not work
[04:21] <Mena> intelikey, must boot part
[04:21] <Mena> intelikey, i dont know
[04:21] <Mena>  :|
[04:21] <intelikey> needs installed to the mbr     i'd think.
[04:22] <intelikey> MRB
[04:22] <intelikey> MBR
[04:22] <intelikey> i'll get it right if you give me long enough
[04:22] <Mena> okay
[04:22] <Mena> intelikey, i did this
[04:23] <Mena> intelikey, sudo -i then sudo fdisk -l then mkdir /mnt/root then mount -t ext3 /dev/hda1 /mnt/root
[04:24] <Mena> intelikey, the grub-install --rootdirectory=/mnt/root /dev/hda1
[04:24] <Mena> intelikey, so what is wrong
[04:25] <Mena> intelikey,and i git this no report errors
[04:25] <Mena> intelikey, and first its says ignore something stage1 one or something like that also
[04:25] <freality> question. there any deskbar like applets for KDE?
[04:25] <intelikey> yeah aside from the second instance of sudo being superflutious       the device should have been  /dev/hda  not /dev/hda1      i think.
[04:26] <Mena> intelikey, i went to the wiki and its says choose your write linux part
[04:26] <Mena> intelikey, i mean kubuntu or ubuntu
[04:26] <Mena> intelikey, :)
[04:27] <intelikey> let me look at the page a minute.    i'll get back to you.
[04:27] <Mena> intelikey, ok take your time
[04:31] <epimeth> anybody good with regexps?
[04:31] <epimeth> cuz grep is giving me a leeetil problem
[04:31] <epimeth> grep -n '\:}[^\<\s\"] ' * > todo
[04:32] <epimeth> in other words... I want the files and rownumbers of [template]  pages which contain the string ':}' followed by anything that is not in the following list: <, a space character, or a double quotation
[04:33] <epimeth> problem is I'm also getting back rows that end in ':}'
[04:33] <epimeth> which makes sence, cuz \s does not cover \n
[04:34] <epimeth> but when I add \n to the list ([^\<\s\"\n] )
[04:34] <epimeth> it still finds them :-(
[04:35] <fudgey> hello!
[04:35] <Mena> hi
[04:36] <epimeth> ahoy!
[04:37] <intelikey> Mena ok the wiki agrees with me on the mbr issue.
[04:37] <Mena> i realy dont know what is mbr
[04:37] <Mena> or what is meaning
[04:38] <intelikey> grub-install --root-directory=/mnt/root /dev/hda  <<< that's what the wiki said for an example.    that will install frub on the MBR == master boot record    rather than /dev/hda1 == first primary partition
[04:38] <intelikey> frub ?      heh   grub
[04:38] <Mena> ohh ok thanks
[04:39] <Mena> so ist hda just hda
[04:39] <Mena> its*
[04:39] <Mena> okay i will try
[04:39] <intelikey> yep that's what i told you the first time.   ^^^
[04:39] <Mena> thaanks :) ^_^
[04:39] <epimeth> inteli: you know regexps perchance?
[04:40] <intelikey> epimeth a little about it
[04:40] <intelikey> epimeth   man regex
[04:41] <intelikey> epimeth what you want is ?
[04:41] <intelikey> or was it just a pool ?
[04:41] <intelikey> poll
[04:41] <epimeth> grep -n '\:}[^\<\s\"] ' * > todo
[04:41] <epimeth> it is 'finding' the \s
[04:42] <intelikey> ok inside ''  and using \  is redundant
[04:42] <intelikey> try ""
[04:42] <epimeth> just making sure :-)
[04:43] <epimeth> okay... I'll try that...
[04:43] <epimeth> nope
[04:43] <epimeth> same exact list
[04:43] <freality> epimath -are you looking an "s" or "\s"?
[04:43] <epimeth> \s
[04:43] <intelikey> k let me test it a bit and get back to you.
[04:43] <epimeth> cheers
[04:43] <epimeth> also, \n... but that should be included in \s
[04:44] <freality> try \\s instead
[04:44] <epimeth> hmmm
[04:44] <stdin> epimeth: you may want to install kregexpeditor
[04:44] <stdin> !kregexpeditor
[04:44] <ubotu> kregexpeditor: graphical regular expression editor plugin for KDE. In component universe, is optional. Version 4:3.5.5-0ubuntu2 (edgy), package size 278 kB, installed size 1080 kB
[04:44] <epimeth> naw... that'll match \ and s
[04:45] <epimeth> I need \s
[04:46] <intelikey> what is \s ?
[04:47] <fudgey> !
[04:47] <stdin> \s = A space character
[04:47] <epimeth> space
[04:47] <epimeth> also, tab
[04:47] <epimeth> newline
[04:47] <intelikey> just use the space.
[04:47] <epimeth> stdin
[04:47] <epimeth> you seem to know what you're talking about
[04:47] <intelikey> \n is newline
[04:47] <epimeth> help me out?
[04:47] <epimeth> \s should match newline as well
[04:47] <epimeth> with /m
[04:48] <epimeth> but I'm using regexp... so I'm kinda stuck
[04:48] <epimeth> grep -n '\:}[^\<\s\"] ' * > todo
[04:48] <stdin> epimeth: I know a bit about it, but i'm no expert and all I know is what I've found from when I needed it
[04:49] <intelikey> epimeth grep -ne ...
[04:49] <epimeth> egrep?
[04:49] <epimeth> I'll give it a shot...
[04:49] <intelikey> no egrep is  -E  not -e
[04:50] <epimeth> whups
[04:50] <epimeth> nope and nope
[04:50] <epimeth> added the \n manually, too
[04:50] <epimeth> doesn't work, either
[04:51] <intelikey> -E, --extended-regexp   -e PATTERN, --regexp=PATTERN       but i still say \s seems like an odd duck.
[04:51] <jose__> who knows a mp3 player with skin transparent?
[04:51] <joey__> anyone know abodu the add/remove features?
[04:52] <bonbonthejon> joey__: what do you mean?
[04:53] <joey__> stupid thing wont add prgrams
[04:53] <epimeth> tried it with a space... doesn't work, either
[04:53] <epimeth> wtf
[04:53] <bonbonthejon> joey__: try using adept instead, i havent had good luck with add/remove either
[04:53] <epimeth> maybe '^' is not the 'not' symbol in grep?
[04:54] <mefisto__> joey__: what do you mean it won't add programs? are programs listed?
[04:55] <freality> ^ is beginnig of line
[04:55] <joey__> There was an error commiting changes. Possibly there was a problem downloading some packages or the commit would break packages
[04:55] <epimeth> not if its in square brackets
[04:55] <joey__> when i apply changes to install a program
[04:56] <epimeth> [^ = exclude
[04:56] <jose__> who knows a mp3 player with skin transparent?
[04:56] <stdin> epimeth: try ':\}[^\<\s\"] ' (move the 1st '\')
[04:57] <intelikey> grep -ne '\:}[^\<\s\"] ' *
[04:57] <intelikey> Binary file 18177.zip matches
[04:57] <mefisto__> joey__: and did it download anything?
[04:57] <joey__> no
[04:57] <bonbonthejon> joey__: try using adept
[04:57] <mefisto__> joey__: try installing the same prog in adept. It probably gives you more feedback
[04:57] <jose__> install kpackage
[04:58] <epimeth> muther
[04:58] <epimeth> nothing is working?!?!
[04:58] <bonbonthejon> !kpackage
[04:58] <ubotu> kpackage: KDE package management tool. In component universe, is optional. Version 4:3.5.5-0ubuntu2 (edgy), package size 679 kB, installed size 1388 kB
[04:58] <intelikey> epimeth what do you want it to do ?
[04:59] <mefisto__> joey__: if it didn't download anything at all, the repositories in sources.list might not be right, possibly
[04:59] <epimeth> I'm making sure that none of our templates have extraneous characters in them
[04:59] <joey__> gave me the same feedback for both
[04:59] <norbert> Trying to do a clean Feisty install on a server: 2 raid 1s -  /root (md0) and /home (md1). Due to previous issues, I just cleanly wiped and formatted the previous /root. In the installer, it recognized the partitions and made the new root raid (md2). When it tries to go back to the partition window, I get an error: Could not stat device /dev/md/1 - No such file or directory
[04:59] <bonbonthejon> joey__: open konsole and run "sudo apt-get update" to see if it downloads
[04:59] <intelikey> you are looking for strings in all files in the pwd and sending the output to a todo file that is overwritten each time you run that.   <epimeth> grep -n '\:}[^\<\s\"] ' * > todo
[04:59] <stdin> ':\}[^\<\s\"] ' seems to look for (in "English") ":}" with any character except A space,< and "
[05:00] <epimeth> so if a colon or a star appears outside of a template call - {:name:} or {:page:name:} - I need to move it to inside the language file
[05:00] <norbert> Apparently, the installer sees my /home (md1) and tries to work with it; I don't need it to recognize it - I can do it after the install, but I can't continue the installation due to the error
[05:00] <joey__> bunch of errors
[05:00] <bonbonthejon> norbert: where did you install grub
[05:01] <epimeth> stdin: exactly
[05:01] <norbert> bonbonthejon: mbr
[05:01] <bonbonthejon> norbert: ok, i knew there was a problem trying to install grub on a raid
[05:01] <bonbonthejon> norbert: do you have a swap?
[05:02] <norbert> bonbonthejon: specific to feisty? (previous setup was Edgy, and it worked fine)
[05:02] <norbert> no, I do not
[05:02] <epimeth> I'm looking for :} followed by anything that isn't a space, an html tag, or the end to an html property
[05:02] <norbert> bonbonthejon: I can shave some of the /root for swap w/o having space issues. Will this help somehow? (don't see how this is related)
[05:03] <bonbonthejon> norbert: I dont know, I thought you had to have a swap
[05:03] <norbert> bonbonthejon: for that matter, I suspect I could make a small /boot if that's the real issue
[05:03] <norbert> bonbonthejon: nope; Edgy installed fine with no swap and root on raid. Unless feisty requires it.. (this is the alternative cd)
[05:04] <norbert> bonbonthejon: the real issue seems to be that I have a previous /home raid1 I don't want to destroy. Is there a good way to make a clean install w/o it messing with /home?
[05:04] <bonbonthejon> norbert: no, I've done dapper with swap and a separate boot, root on raid
[05:04] <MegaVolt> hi, got a problem installing kubuntu feisty on amd64
[05:04] <mefisto__> joey__: you could try http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic/ to get a new sources.list
[05:04] <MegaVolt> clicking install doesnt do anything, if i paste the command in the konsole i get
[05:04] <MegaVolt> http://rafb.net/p/tHKIIK55.html
[05:05] <MegaVolt> any ideas
[05:05] <bonbonthejon> norbert: you should be able to only format the other partitions, and mount /home
[05:05] <Mena> intelikey , thanks its worked
[05:05] <Mena> intelikey , i dont thought that it would be simple
[05:05] <Mena> intelikey , heheeh :)
[05:05] <bonbonthejon> MegaVolt: I prefer using the alt. install cd, it seems to have less problems
[05:05] <norbert> bonbonthejon: I should mention that the reason I formatted /root outside of the installer was because it was giving me the same error for the /root raid. After, I formatted /root, installer works fine for setting up the new partition. I sincerely hope that there is a solution outside of repeating this scenario with /home
[05:06] <intelikey> epimeth grep -ne ':}' | grep -ve ':} '
[05:06] <epimeth> lol
[05:06] <epimeth> nice
[05:06] <norbert> bonbonthejon: I'm trying to format other partitions, and mount /home later; Installer doesn't get as far as letting me select "/" for a partition :-)
[05:07] <bonbonthejon> norbert: its been months since I set up my server, I dont remember how everyting worked
[05:07] <intelikey> well just a thought.   if you can't write it short,  write it long.
[05:07] <norbert> What's the use of having a separate /home if everytime I need to reinstall /root, everything complains so much.. *sigh*
[05:08] <norbert> bonbonthejon: heh. Hopefully some other kind soul has some answers
[05:08] <epimeth> inteli: great workaround
[05:08] <epimeth> cheers
[05:08] <epimeth> I'll just pipe to all the ones I don't want :-)
[05:08] <MegaVolt> k ill try the alternate cd then ... seems like a really strage bug
[05:09] <ghetek> if i have a dell d610 with onboard video intel 815 would beryl be ok?
[05:09] <MegaVolt> any way to use some kind of text mode install with the normal cd ?
[05:09] <bonbonthejon> norbert: the way i got around a similar problem was I took out the drive with the data, I put a new drive in, set up the system, reinserted the data drive, copied everything over, then added the data drive to the raid
[05:09] <bonbonthejon> MegaVolt: i dont think so
[05:09] <ian_> Is gmail not working for anyone else?
[05:09] <bonbonthejon> ghetek: intel cards have open drivers, I believe, so they should do pretty good with beryl
[05:10] <intelikey> epimeth i'm better at just "getting it done"  than "doing it right"   but hey,  what is right ?
[05:10] <stdin> ian_: yeah, working fine
[05:10] <epimeth> $ isn't friggin working/!!!!!!
[05:10] <intelikey> \$
[05:10] <MegaVolt> the .py script coomplains about missing init methods - am i the only one with this problem? the error message sounds like some script error to me, not a hardware problem
[05:10] <epimeth> | grep -ve ':}$'
[05:10] <epimeth> that'll match a $ literal
[05:11] <epimeth> I want the end of line
[05:11] <epimeth> \n isn't working either
[05:11] <epimeth> \r\n
[05:11] <epimeth> \r
[05:11] <epimeth> nothing
[05:11] <epimeth> wtf
[05:11] <ghetek> bonbonthejon: thanks! i will install it.
[05:11] <CShadowRun> dam. :(
[05:11] <intelikey> try the "" in place of the ''
[05:11] <CShadowRun> $ man women
[05:11] <CShadowRun> No manual entry for women
[05:11] <CShadowRun> just as i thought linux was the answer for everything :(
[05:12] <norbert> bonbonthejon: this is assuming I have an additional ~450GB drive. :-)
[05:12] <bonbonthejon> CShadowRun: i found a web page will unix jokes like that
[05:12] <bonbonthejon> norbert: if you have a raid you should have more than one drive
[05:13] <intelikey> epimeth       grep -ve ':\}$'     works.
[05:13] <ghetek> is there an antivirus that i can run on my kubuntu partition to search my windows ntfs partition?
[05:13] <CShadowRun> [bonbonthejon-> i'd like a link :D
[05:13] <intelikey> epimeth so does  grep -ve ":\}$"
[05:13] <bonbonthejon> ghetek: if you mount the ntfs partition a linux anti-virus shoudl be able to
[05:14] <stdin> ghetek: ClamAV is one
[05:14] <norbert> bonbonthejon: wait; Install the system with one drive (non-raid); Mount data raid partition (will this mount normally like ext3?) Copy over data to system drive; Zero the data drive and re-add it to the raid?
[05:14] <ghetek> is clamav gui?
[05:14] <ghetek> stdin: is clamav gui?
[05:14] <shriphani> !gnutella
[05:14] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about gnutella - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:14] <ghetek> !amule
[05:14] <ubotu> amule: client for the eD2k and Kad networks, like eMule. In component universe, is optional. Version 2.1.3-1 (edgy), package size 1239 kB, installed size 3368 kB
[05:14] <bonbonthejon> ghetek: if its not there is a gui for it
[05:14] <ghetek> bonbonthejon: ok thx
[05:14] <shriphani> ghetek: amule supports gnutella ?
[05:15] <stdin> ghetek: no clue, never used it, but I think it's probably a commandline app, that just scans the files every now and then, with cron
[05:15] <bonbonthejon> norbert: redo the system with raid, plug the old drive in, it should show up as another raid, then mount the second raid and copy
[05:15] <ghetek> shriphani: no actually shareaza does and there is an entry in the wiki on getting shareaza working with wine in ubuntu, ive done it its easy
[05:16] <shriphani> hmm.... no native apps for that ?
[05:16] <MegaVolt> if im using the feisty install cd right now is there a way to see which version it is (herd) ?
[05:16] <epimeth> grr... screw it... I'll go through the list and erase the ones that are only newlines myself
[05:16] <epimeth> :-(
[05:16] <norbert> bonbonthejon: I can make a temporary raid1 during install, just using one drive?
[05:16] <intelikey> epimeth heh so does   grep -ve ":\}

[05:17] <bonbonthejon> norbert: yes, the install raid will be the new system, set it up for 2, but only put in 1
[05:17] <epimeth> I did a wc on both
[05:17] <epimeth> -ve :}$
[05:17] <epimeth> had less rows than without it
[05:17] <epimeth> but there were rows there that ended in :}

[05:17] <norbert> bonbonthejon: interesting; I will try that, thanks for the tip!
[05:17] <intelikey> epimeth probably had spaces that you don't see
[05:18] <intelikey> i.e.  grep -ve ":\} $"
[05:18] <bonbonthejon> norbert: like i said, I did a similar thing, took some work, but it worked
[05:19] <epimeth> its open in kate as we speak
[05:19] <epimeth> there aint nuthin there

[05:20] <ghetek> is there a simple ipconfig for ubuntu?

[05:21] <epimeth> my bad
[05:21] <intelikey> well echo ' test :} ' | grep -ve ":\}$"     doesn't omit that line.  but the trailing space is not seen soooo......
[05:21] <ghetek> stdin: thnx
[05:22] <bonbonthejon> MegaVolt: I dont know of a way to find the herd, but "lsb_release -a" give some info
[05:22] <epimeth> now $echo 'test :} ' > test.tpl
[05:22] <epimeth> open it in Kate
[05:22] <epimeth> and see the trailing space
[05:22] <ErikTheRed> i'm looking for a decent tagging tool for my music that can pull from freedb, is there anything out there better than easytag?
[05:23] <intelikey> epimeth now pipe it through grep and look.

[05:25] <epimeth> why in all that is good and holy are there DOS newlines in my files?!?!?
[05:25] <epimeth> and while we're on the subject, why were they not returned when I tried \r\n???
[05:26] <epimeth> cheers guys... I can take it from here ;-)
[05:26] <epimeth> muther
[05:26] <intelikey> that i don't know.
[05:26] <intelikey> but dos2unix filename    will fix that
[05:26] <epimeth> just gotta say "thank you vi, for placing pretty blue ^Ms when something is wrong"
[05:26] <epimeth> did I install that package?
[05:27] <epimeth> nope
[05:27] <epimeth> what's the package, you know?
[05:27] <intelikey> !dos2unix
[05:27] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about dos2unix - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:27] <epimeth> lol
[05:27] <epimeth> fail me again, bot, and you won't live to regret it
[05:27] <intelikey> ah package name   tofrodos - Converts DOS <-> Unix text files, alias tofromdos
[05:28] <theshadow> has anyone had issues getting the compiz gpg key?
[05:28] <epimeth> woo hoo
[05:29] <stdin> theshadow: isn't compiz in the ubuntu repos?
[05:31] <theshadow> stdin: apparently :S
[05:31] <stdin> theshadow: then you should already have the key
[05:31] <nonuda_> i have the kubuntu system and have update most recent package and install some of application, and now i want to install it to another cpu can i use ghost?
[05:32] <Dr_willis> nonuda_,  the linux program 'mondo/mindi' is good for backingup.restoring linux systems
[05:32] <nonuda_> rather then fresh instal and update the packages again
[05:32] <Dr_willis> theres proberly a dozen ways you could do it without ghost. :)
[05:33] <ghetek> argh... how do i kubuntify the following command? "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart"
[05:33] <nonuda_> mondo/mindi..hm where can i find it?
[05:33] <Dr_willis> nonuda_,  of course the apt packages its downloaded are stored on the hard drive.. you could just do an install. then  either copy those packges over to the new box. or share them, or use that apt cache tool that makes the 2nd pc look on the first one for the packages.
[05:33] <Dr_willis> is the hardware in the 2 machines identical?
[05:33] <stdin> ghetek: replace gdm with kdm
[05:34] <epimeth> and after all has been said and done... there were 2 cases
[05:34] <ghetek> damnit i didnt want it to be that easy...
[05:34] <epimeth> *
[05:34] <intelikey> epimeth well you have set me on a quest now....    why doesn't   grep -ve "\n"  work ?
[05:34] <ghetek> now i just feel stupid
[05:34] <nonuda_> no..
[05:34] <epimeth> inteli... good luck
[05:34] <epimeth> I, for one, am all grepped out
[05:34] <epimeth> and its 6:30 am and I haven't slept
[05:34] <Dr_willis> nonuda_,  you may be better off installing to the 2nd box. then shareing/copying  the allready downloaded packages
[05:35] <epimeth> I think a nap is in order before calling the boss to let him know the templates are fixed
[05:35] <metamorph> can kubuntu be loaded into and run from a memory stick
[05:35] <epimeth> we want to put the site live tonight :-)
[05:35] <metamorph> ?
[05:35] <epimeth> meta: kubuntu, I don't think so... but debian can
[05:35] <Dr_willis> metamorph,  ive heard it can
[05:36] <ghetek> if i run sudo /etc/init.d/kdm restart will i not see all my windows? will my file transfer continue on?
[05:36] <stdin> epimeth: kubuntu is based on debian, so it should be the same
[05:36] <nonuda_> ok..then how do i find those downloaded package in my harddrive?
[05:36] <Dr_willis> ghetek,  that will stop X and kill the x apps.
[05:36] <epimeth> but ubuntu's base install is like 10 times bigger
[05:36] <stdin> ghetek: no, you'll be logged out
[05:36] <Dr_willis> nonuda_,  now would be a good time to read up on how apt-get works. :)
[05:36] <Dr_willis> !apt
[05:36] <ubotu> APT is the Advanced Package Tool, which together with dpkg forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit. Short apt-get manual: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGetHowto - Also see !Synaptic (Gnome) or !Adept (KDE)
[05:36] <Dr_willis> check that apt-get manual.
[05:36] <ghetek> i will give it a shot
[05:36] <metamorph> I have debian 3.1 but I can't do anything with it so I got the lastes kubuntu
[05:37] <epimeth> kubuntu installs a lot more pacakges by default, is all
[05:37] <metamorph> latest
[05:37] <Dr_willis> i had one pc set up to be the main 'package server' it downloaded all the updates and stuff.. and the other machines on the lan had their sources.list set to get the files from that machine.
[05:37] <Dr_willis> that was handy
[05:37] <epimeth> also, metamorph, it depends on the size of the memory stick :-)
[05:37] <metamorph> 2 gig
[05:37] <stdin> metamorph: maybe https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent will help
[05:38] <epimeth> Dr_willis: did you jigdo the mirror?  cuz that's just cool :-)
[05:38] <metamorph> I'll try - thanks
[05:38] <Dr_willis> epimeth,  i didenet go THAT far
[05:38] <Dr_willis> :)
[05:38] <nonuda_> thank u
[05:38] <Jucato> dangnabit... stdin beat me to it... :(
[05:38] <epimeth> any hoo... g'morning all! I'm off to bed!
[05:38] <stdin> Jucato: I always do :P
[05:39] <Jucato> hmph
[05:39] <intelikey> epimeth there seems to be something about }\n   that grep can't handle normally
[05:39] <swanfl> what exactly prompted the ubuntu team to use SVGATextMode in Feisty? this program was last updated in 2000 and doesn't appear to support recent video card, has no man page, and breaks my default console font /size setting?
[05:40] <Dr_willis> ask in #ubuntu+1
[05:40] <Dr_willis> sounds like somthing i would disable anyway
[05:41] <intelikey> svgatextmode is only a mechenism to switch the screen mode the support is in the kenrel frame buffering.
[05:42] <hawk_> ubuntugames is in a diffrenent lang then english
[05:42] <Kite_DH> how do i make folders invisible???
[05:42] <hawk_> is there a site for games that is in english
[05:42] <Dr_willis> Kite_DH,  hmmm... basicially ya dont.
[05:42] <intelikey> Kite_DH ?
[05:42] <Kite_DH> hmm
[05:42] <Dr_willis> if the name starts with a . - they are considered 'hidden'
[05:42] <Kite_DH> yes but i installed my lexmark printer
[05:42] <Dr_willis> you are refering to folders in the users home dir?
[05:42] <Kite_DH> and now thers a folder called "lexmark" in my home folder
[05:42] <hawk_> you can add a . to the at the start of the name of the folder
[05:42] <Kite_DH> can i set a . in front of it?
[05:43] <intelikey> Kite_DH you can change the permissions on them.  that will make them unviewable
[05:43] <Dr_willis> Why does the printer need a dir in the users home dir anyway?
[05:43] <Kite_DH> no idea
[05:43] <Kite_DH> it made it itself
[05:43] <hawk_> .mathew will not show up
[05:43] <Kite_DH> after i followed the ubuntu wiki
[05:43] <Dr_willis> if the stuff is 'installed' i imagine you dont need the dir any more.
[05:43] <stdin> Kite_DH: from the rpms?
[05:43] <hawk_> if that is the name of the folder
[05:43] <hawk_> i think
[05:43] <intelikey> Kite_DH oh yeah you can move them name to .name  but if something automatically created the dir it will probably whine about you moving it.
[05:43] <Kite_DH> if i make .lexmark out of it, will the system still find it as lexmark?
[05:44] <theshadow> Ok would anyone running compiz and xgl be willing to give me a hand? I can't seem to get things up and running
[05:44] <Dr_willis> Kite_DH,  i doubt if the system is using it at all.
[05:44] <stdin> Kite_DH: you can remove/delete the folder after the install
[05:44] <Kite_DH> alright
[05:44] <Rob-West> i need hel
[05:44] <Kite_DH> i set a . infront of it
[05:44] <Rob-West> help
[05:44] <hawk_> is there any good sites for games for ubuntu
[05:44] <Rob-West> my apt fucked up can i fix it without reinstalling
[05:44] <Kite_DH> adept
[05:44] <Kite_DH> type in game
[05:44] <Kite_DH> :D
[05:44] <hawk_> !game
[05:45] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about game - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:45] <Jucato> !games | hawk_
[05:45] <ubotu> hawk_: Information about games on Ubuntu can be found on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Games and http://www.icculus.org/lgfaq/gamelist.php and ubuntugames.org
[05:45] <stdin> theshadow: compiz on kde is hell, beryl is easier to install
[05:45] <intelikey> !adeptfix | Rob-West
[05:45] <ubotu> Rob-West: If Adept crashed on you and your database is locked, try this in konsole:  sudo fuser -vki /var/lib/dpkg/lock;sudo dpkg --configure -a
[05:45] <Rob-West> no it was a repo error
[05:45] <Rob-West> i think i fixed it
[05:45] <hawk_> i cant get beryl to work on my system
[05:45] <theshadow> stdin: blah, beryl just whitescreens
[05:45] <Kite_DH> hawk_: #beryl
[05:45] <Kite_DH> =)
[05:45] <stdin> theshadow: beryl and compiz are mostly the same code
[05:45] <intelikey> Rob-West sudo apt-get update
[05:46] <Rob-West> i did
[05:46] <intelikey> Rob-West if the repos are setup correctly that should fix you.
[05:46] <Rob-West> !pastebin
[05:46] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #kubuntu channel topic)
[05:47] <Rob-West> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/8049/
[05:47] <theshadow> stdin: ok I'm not exactly sure what you're saying by that comment.
[05:47] <Rob-West> problem
[05:47] <Rob-West> there it is
[05:47] <intelikey> hey what a radical idea,   using a pastebin to show us the error
[05:47] <stdin> theshadow: if beryl fails, then compiz is likely to fail too
[05:47] <theshadow> stdin: thats what I feared
[05:49] <intelikey> Rob-West sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install -f
[05:49] <stdin> Rob-West: looks like you have a line like "deb p://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu edgy-backports univer$" in your sources.list, fix that
[05:49] <stdin> Rob-West: opps, that's "deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu edgy-backports univer$" in your sources.list, fix that
[05:50] <Rob-West> is that why i cant update
[05:50] <bonbonthejon> Rob-West: fix universe in that line, i should work
[05:50] <stdin> probably
[05:52] <intelikey> Rob-West as me say afore   if you have fixed your sources.list  sudo apt-get update    should fix you.
[05:53] <stdin> the "fix you" part sounds dubious :P
[05:53] <Rob-West> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/8051/
[05:53] <Rob-West> my repos
[05:54] <Jucato> Rob-West: lines 23 and 24 of that pastebin
[05:54] <stdin> Rob-West: did you copy it from nano or something ?
[05:54] <Rob-West> yea
[05:55] <stdin> the $ part is where the line continues off screen
[05:55] <intelikey> check the lines in your editor anyway.   if they are turncated or extruded that's the problemo
[05:55] <Rob-West> what should it look like
[05:55] <Rob-West> show me in PM
[05:56] <stdin> Rob-West: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/8052/

[05:57] <Rob-West> i use automatix so what
[05:57] <intelikey> !automatix | Rob-West
[05:57] <ubotu> Rob-West: automatix is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe

[05:57] <ubotu> Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should. Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability.

[06:05] <Rob-West> im trying to fix my kubuntu
[06:06] <intelikey> Jucato that's not a recursive error he's getting is it ?   can't configure debtag because debtag is not configured ?     no nm.  it's not.
[06:06] <Rob-West> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/8053/
[06:06] <intelikey> it's still a bad repo.
[06:06] <Rob-West> i used ur repo list u made
[06:07] <Jucato> hm...
[06:07] <intelikey> Rob-West the one i made ?
[06:07] <Rob-West> yea
[06:07] <intelikey> where did you find that ?
[06:07] <Jucato> that was from stdin
[06:07] <Rob-West> someone make me a repo list
[06:07] <stdin> yeah, I made it
[06:08] <Rob-West> will someone make me one
[06:08] <Rob-West> A GOOD ONE
[06:08] <stdin> Rob-West: use source-o-matic
[06:08] <Rob-West> idk what options to use
[06:08] <stdin> Rob-West: and the one I made was A GOOD ONE :P
[06:09] <shriphani_> and yes has anyone checked if the dapper main sources repo is working ?
[06:09] <intelikey> Rob-West  you can remove any "#" in that file you want to.
[06:09] <Rob-West> im gonna do them all
[06:09] <intelikey> you will need the cd   but that will work.
[06:10] <shriphani_> intelikey: you use dapper ?
[06:10] <intelikey> else leave the very first one in.

[06:11] <calcmandan> I installed boson through the apt repositories for 6.06.1 LTS and it crashes when I attempt to load a map. What information would anyone like from me to get to the root of the problem?
[06:11] <Rob-West> deb tag is messed up
[06:11] <stdin> nonuda_: smbmount mounts it to the filesystem tree, smb:// just browses the network, mounting it is like "mapping it to a drive" (windows term)
[06:11] <nightsky> with mount you can point to the smb share using a mount point on your local system
[06:12] <intelikey> sudo apt-get remove debtag
[06:12] <Rob-West> i need to fix debtag
[06:12] <nonuda_> ok..thanks

[06:29] <ghetek> intelikey: so how would i add the command "beryl-manager" to there
[06:29] <stdin> ghetek: just add a link to the app in there and it will run at login
[06:29] <intelikey> !autostart
[06:29] <ubotu> To make programs autostart with your KDE session, you can make a link to it in ~/.kde/Autostart. The package 'kcontrol-autostart' makes a kcontrol item for handling items in that directory.
[06:30] <nonuda_> can i use GUI to mount smb rather then using the konsole?

[06:31] <calcmandan> Okay intelikey, thank you for trying though.

[06:38] <teacher> is there any body to know how to install firefox on kubuntu
[06:38] <Jucato> slyfox: it's an svn snapshot. you need an updated admin directory from svn
[06:38] <intelikey> teacher sudo apt-get install mozilla-firefox
[06:38] <slyfox> intelikey: installing kdevelop
[06:39] <stdin> teacher: or install it with adept
[06:39] <intelikey> slyfox see Jucato above.
[06:39] <slyfox> Jucato: that sounds confusing, I think I'll just try the latest beta instead of these svn things
[06:39] <stdin> slyfox: works here, make sure you have autoconf installed
[06:40] <slyfox> stdin: I reinstalled it twice, adept says I have 2.60 installed
[06:40] <Jucato> slyfox: how about automake?
[06:40] <intelikey> aren't both of those covered in b-e ?
[06:40] <stdin> intelikey: nope
[06:40] <slyfox> Jucato: let me see
[06:40] <Jucato> intelikey: nope
[06:41] <slyfox> Jucato: installing automake 1.9,
[06:41] <Jucato> oh there
[06:41] <Jucato> so you don't need the admin directory after all lol

[06:42] <stdin> teacher: open adept (Kmenu -> System -> Adept Manager), search for firefox, and install it
[06:42] <Jucato> teacher: or just type in Konsole: sudo apt-get install firefox
[06:42] <Jucato> or..
[06:43] <slyfox> stdin: after I isntall it, how do I launch it ?
[06:43] <intelikey> is this a bug in  grep  ?   http://pastebin.ca/376678

[06:44] <ubotu> When a program or configure script asks for "X includes", you should probably install the following packages: xlibs-dev   xlibs-static-dev   xorg-dev
[06:44] <stdin> slyfox: you probably just need xorg-dev
[06:45] <slyfox> stdin: let me try

[06:47] <slyfox> Jucato: ok, sorry
[06:47] <slyfox> I just did this sudo apt-get build-dep kmobiletools and it is installing a lot of stuff
[06:47] <nonuda_> and i see the samba status is not installed, its wierd since i can browse the windows network using smb://
[06:47] <Jucato> stdin: most often than not, kdelibs4-dev is enough
[06:47] <stdin> nonuda_: "samba" is the server
[06:48] <nonuda_> oh i see, but why i can't find smb4k in adept manager?
[06:48] <stdin> nonuda_: not sure, open konsole and type "sudo apt-get update" then "apt-cache search smb4k"
[06:48] <slyfox> nonuda_: what do u need with samba ?
[06:49] <stdin> slyfox: a GUI for mounting a smb share
[06:49] <nonuda_> no i don't need samba, i want to map network drive using mount smb
[06:49] <Nhatz> hi ate ulinskie
[06:49] <Admiral_Chicago> wow, never seen that one before
[06:49] <slyfox> nonuda_: I just use autofs
[06:50] <Jucato> Nhatz: you were looking for me?
[06:50] <Jucato> why?
[06:50] <nonuda_> what is autofs
[06:51] <slyfox> nonuda_: http://www.diigo.com/redirect?http%3A%2F%2Fubuntuforums.org%2Fshowthread.php%3Fp%3D2068304

[06:51] <Jucato> Nhatz: I'll eventually return. after some time. see ya
[06:52] <Nhatz> jucato: ok :-D
[06:52] <slyfox> Jucato: kmobiletools just asked to me to do "make" I did it and it did a lot of stuff I do not understand, it finished, now what ?
[06:53] <stdin> slyfox: normally you just do "sudo make install" to install it
[06:53] <nonuda_> stdin, after apt-get update and apt-cache search smb4k, nothing happens with the search
[06:53] <Jucato> slyfox: what stdin said
[06:53] <Jucato> nonuda_: do you have the correct universe repository enabled?
[06:54] <slyfox> Jucato: stdin: cool it launched
[06:54] <stdin> nonuda_: can you post the file /etc/apt/sources.list to pastebin, you can open it in kate, then just copy and paste it
[06:54] <stdin> slyfox: compiling is fun :P
[06:54] <Jucato> it's addictive...
[06:55] <slyfox> stdin: one day i will understand what I jsut did
[06:55] <elyon225> Is it possible to tag MP3 files with multiple artists in Amarok?
[06:55] <Admiral_Chicago> garbage...i did that on Fedora, nothing works
[06:55] <Admiral_Chicago> elyon225: what do you mean?
[06:55] <Jucato> slyfox: the day you understand that, you'll be a guru... only very few people actually can decipher the output of cmake :)
[06:55] <Admiral_Chicago> as in Prince, Charles, Amamander all come up for one track under artist search
[06:55] <nonuda_> yes, i enable : http://id.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ type deb and deb-src with component main resticted universe multiverse
[06:56] <reldruh> how would I check if my microphone is working correctly in kubuntu?
[06:56] <elyon225> Admiral_Chicago: For example, I have a couple of duet songs and would like them to appear under each artist... right now, for example, I have an entry for "Peter Cetera & Cher".
[06:56] <Admiral_Chicago> elyon225: so if you search Cher OR Cetera, it would come up with that song?
[06:57] <Jucato> !pastebin | nonuda_

[06:57] <Jucato> nonuda_: can you pastebin your sources.list?
[06:57] <elyon225> Admiral_Chicago: Well, I would like the artist listing in Amarok to list "Peter Cetera" and another entry for "Cher"... both containing the same track.
[06:57] <Jucato> I can see smb4k from the indonesian repos...
[06:58] <intelikey> ok it seems that my search has ended with two delimas  1. \n does not work from the command line as a char for grep to search for.   and 2. $ works  but can't be used in a variable.
[06:58] <Admiral_Chicago> elyon225: ya thats what i thought you wanted. I don't know of that being possible. maybe in #amarok
[06:58] <nonuda_> ok..i'm going to pastebins...
[06:58] <Jucato> intelikey: \\n ?
[06:58] <Jucato> hi Admiral_Chicago!
[06:58] <intelikey> Jucato no
[06:58] <elyon225> Admiral_Chicago: Yeah, I've tried #amarok... never anyone talking there.  I know with a few different Windows players I used, it was simple (just a seperate tag for "Album Artists" or "Additional Artists").
[06:58] <Jucato> intelikey: ah nvm lol
[06:58] <intelikey> Jucato grep doesn't understand \n
[06:59] <stdin> I could never get \n to work in grep, or sed for that matter :(
[06:59] <Jucato> intelikey: maybe \r or \l?
[06:59] <nonuda_> and now where can i find the sources.list?
[06:59] <Jucato> nonuda_: in /etc/apt/
[07:00] <intelikey> Jucato no it doesn't see them correctly.  it doesn't interpret \?
[07:00] <Jucato> O.o
[07:00] <slyfox> nonuda_: /etc/apt/sources.list.d/

[07:01] <nonuda_> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/8059/ there u go
[07:02] <slyfox> Jucato: I spend a full day today trying to get my phone to sync, no luck. Thought of Windows Vista appear in my mind, this sucks.
[07:02] <stdin> nonuda_: you only enabled the backports one, you nee to add universe to the first line
[07:02] <Jucato> slyfox: I think you're looking at the wrong tool perhaps? I don't know of kmoblietools syncs phones w/ kontact too... try researching on opensync
[07:02] <nonuda_> oh i see..ok try it now
[07:03] <slyfox> Jucato: opensync is what I spent doing all day
[07:03] <Jucato> ok
[07:03] <slyfox> Jucato: it connects, but gives an error in return, maybe soemthing to do with KDE 3.5.6
[07:03] <Jucato> or something with Kubuntu. who knows..
[07:04] <slyfox> Jucato: Is Vista as bad as they say ? I mean I can get a it for free, it comes with my new laptop.
[07:04] <Jucato> dunno. I don't have it
[07:06] <elyon225> slyfox: EVERY review I've read of it says it truly is as bad...
[07:06] <intelikey> hmmm  tr -d '\n'   will make one line out of it's input
[07:06] <elyon225> slyfox: The whole DRM and "activation" thing has totally turned me off to Microsoft now...

[07:21] <jose__> is there anything i can do???
[07:21] <shriphani__> ghetek: you mean the copying stalled ?
[07:22] <ghetek> shriphani__: i want sync because i am always updating the directory locally and i want a mirror image online that is always up to date
[07:22] <ghetek> shriphani__: even if it is a cron job that runs at night
[07:22] <shriphani__> oh
[07:23] <intelikey> jose__ free -m

[07:25] <shriphani__> Admiral_Chicago: vlc is cli ?
[07:25] <Admiral_Chicago> shriphani__: it has a GUI frontend and a terminal back end
[07:25] <nonuda_> oh i see, its in the utilities, thanks...i'm out now, thanks guys

[07:27] <teacher> anybody: know counter strike irc server
[07:27] <intelikey> jose__ welcome.      but didn't we just do this bit.
[07:27] <intelikey> Admiral_Chicago about ?
[07:28] <Admiral_Chicago> the syntax to play a video from terminal for VLC
[07:28] <Admiral_Chicago> iirc, you knew it once
[07:28] <Jucato> intelikey = cli-freak
[07:28] <intelikey> yeah you remember correctly.   now if i did....
[07:29] <nonuda_> oopss...error messages, an error occured while trying to mount the share, detail: smbmnt must be installed suid root for direct user mounts (1000,1000)
[07:29] <teacher> ;
[07:29] <intelikey> Admiral_Chicago vlc --display 800x600x16 -f something....   it's been a while.
[07:30] <intelikey> and it requires either frame buffering deamon or svgalibs  one or tother to get any satisfatcion out of it.
[07:31] <Admiral_Chicago> hmm, negative...
[07:31] <teacher> after firefox installed in adept how can i open
[07:31] <intelikey> but when you get it setup right and the command right it's as clean/crisp/seemeless of a vidio as i have ever seen.
[07:31] <Jucato> teacher: K Menu -> Internet
[07:32] <stdin> teacher: from the Kmenu, or, if it's not there, press Alt-F2 and type in: firefox
[07:32] <intelikey> i had a script set up that i used all time Admiral_Chicago   i'll have to see if i still have it.
[07:32] <stdin> teacher: if it's not there, it will be after you logout and back in
[07:32] <Jucato> stdin: er?
[07:33] <stdin> Jucato: er? what?
[07:33] <Jucato> if a newly installed app doesn't appear immediately in the K Menu (even though it should), press Alt+F2, and run "kbuildsycoca"
[07:33] <intelikey> Admiral_Chicago heh the command i remember was     vidio filename.avi      or what ever format...  cause that was the script name...
[07:33] <stdin> Jucato: I can never remember that command, I just do "dcop kicker kicker restart" :P
[07:34] <Jucato> restarting kicker doesn't always work  though.. iirc
[07:34] <stdin> Jucato: always worked here
[07:34] <teacher> let me try
[07:34] <Jucato> !kmenu_update
[07:34] <ubotu> If your K menu is out of date, like after installing an application and not finding it in the K menu, you should type "kbuildsycoca" in a terminal to rebuild the KDE configuration cache
[07:34] <teacher> ok
[07:34] <teacher> i'll try
[07:35] <nonuda_> i can't see smbmnt in adept manager
[07:36] <stdin> nonuda_: it's in smbfs
[07:36] <nonuda_> ok, then why smb4k said it must be installed suid root?
[07:37] <Admiral_Chicago> grr, google is not helping
[07:38] <nonuda_> stdin?
[07:39] <intelikey> bah  that's not the one but it's a music randomizer/player for the cli     http://pastebin.ca/376725       still looking.

[08:08] <Jucato> but that's offtopic now
[08:08] <posingaspopular> Jucato: it'll still be free though?
[08:09] <brandon> ?
[08:09] <flaccid> well kde is part of kubuntu
[08:09] <Jucato> posingaspopular: huh? it has nothing to do with price.
[08:09] <flaccid> so its on topic

[08:18] <Jucato> here's to hoping it runs this time...
[08:19] <Jucato> :(
[08:19] <blankfaze> i just tried installing beryl.  i didn't like it that much.  i want something more kdecentric
[08:19] <arrenlex> Jucato: Oh, you're using the "if it doesn't work keep trying" method xD

[09:13] <flaccid> rob-west: you fixed no glx problem? you prolly forgot to load module glx in xorg.conf ?

[09:15] <brandon> Dam,  i can not figure this out
[09:15] <yapyccky> hello everyone, i've kubuntu on a asus lapton with ATI 9700. with compiz it works really slow
[09:15] <yapyccky> can anyone help me ?
[09:19] <lolo> in principle, kubuntu comes with free drivers of ATI
[09:19] <lolo> so two possibilities :
[09:19] <rob-west> flaccid where can i find that game
[09:20] <flaccid> rob-west: install the package nexuiz
[09:20] <lolo> 1. ATI 9700 is a one the does not support the free driver
[09:20] <lolo> (lack of chance)
[09:20] <lolo> 2. you are using a Dapper
[09:20] <lolo> or before
[09:21] <lolo> maybe try Beryl
[09:21] <lolo> in order to check
[09:21] <flaccid> i would check xorg.conf first
[09:21] <lolo> on my Feisty, Beryl works with ATI
[09:22] <lolo> without any change in worg.conf
[09:22] <rob-west> i finally got a video card that installed right
[09:23] <lolo> I personnally never tried Compiz; always on beryl
