[07:57] <vbgunz> I swear something told me to wait about a week and listen for news about the upgrade woes, I was sure their would be some :P
[07:57] <wolferine> hitmanWilly, for all, even nfs and smb mounts?
[07:57] <eduardo> lol vbgunz i thought th same
[07:57] <hitmanWilly> wolferine, yes, linux treats a smbfs just like any other mount
[07:57] <vbgunz> heh, aptitude seems to be downloading stuff apt-get missed OR something just got updated
[07:58] <SkyblastAtWork> I had a feeling the upgrade would screw me up, but I did it anyway, and lo and behold i have a destroyed system ;)
[07:58] <vbgunz> SkyblastAtWork: welcome to the club :)
[07:58] <bluewave> this distribution update thing takes forever
[07:58] <wolferine> to confirm my fstab settings are correct, can I restart a service?
[07:58] <soulrider> vbgunz: im back :P
[07:58] <bluewave> anyone else updating to the new release of feisty
[07:58] <wolferine> blue, I am
[07:58] <hitmanWilly> bluewave, yes, especially with the servers getting hammered like they are
[07:58] <soulrider> bluewave: thats because the repos cant handle so many people updating
[07:59] <vbgunz> aptitude almost done at 90% now, hope it don't choke
[07:59] <SkyblastAtWork> but it's cool. I learned from Edgy to not entirely trust upgrading, so /home (and everything else important) is on a seperate partition, so I can just do a clean install and remount all those.
[07:59] <soulrider> kubuntu should have mirrors for the repos
[07:59] <bluewave> 17% here
[07:59] <Sheazsche> Option "May_Need_ForceBIOS" "1"  in device
[07:59] <soulrider> in Arch i use aria2 to download my packages from more than one repo at a time
[08:00] <vbgunz> damn, same errors :(
[08:00] <yasser> why does ubuntu not have the special HP printer device manager while kubuntu has it??
[08:00] <vbgunz> python-minimal is killing me :(
[08:02] <albin_> how long did the upgrade with adept take for you guys?
[08:02] <bluewave> it's taken me like 2 hours to get 19%
[08:03] <bluewave> not cool
[08:03] <aro> You and everyone's grandma is trying to get it
[08:03] <albin_> :-)
[08:03] <slicknick> anyone seen this sort of behavior from rdesktop before? this is a dual monitor screenshot with an rdesktop session to a windows machine on the right side of the image. http://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=2ushbav
[08:03] <vbgunz> well sudo aptitude upgrade seems to be upgrading packages... maybe after, I can dist-upgrade (hopefully)
[08:03] <bluewave> why can't everyones grandma just wait!
[08:04] <aro> She doesn't have much time left, and her last wish was to see Feisty in action!
[08:04] <stoft> gg@aro
[08:05] <stoft> I've simply decided to wait, maybe I'll start the upgrade tonight, last thing I do before I head to bed...
[08:05] <vbgunz> stoft: I think you should probably wait it out a couple days and keep track of the forums on issues
[08:06] <sylvisj> Can I get the assitance of a cedega user?
[08:06] <albin_> well our grandmas will not make it with this speed...
[08:06] <vbgunz> my personal exeprience upgrading is not too cool OR just do what I did and follow the rules carefully, good luck :)
[08:07] <stoft> vbgunz: yeah maybe... if I've waited this long...
[08:07] <albin_> thanks :-)
[08:07] <sylvisj> bah, #cedega is all but dead
[08:08] <monika__> hi
[08:08] <bigdad1e_> i need my subnet mask ip to manually set up my knetworkmanager bc its not working
[08:08] <pingveno> Well, this upgrade is certainly going a bit smoother than when I was doing Gentoo upgrades....
[08:08] <monika__> adept crashed and now when I start it it says there is a lock
[08:08] <monika__> I guess I can delete some files to delete the lock
[08:08] <monika__> which ones?
[08:08] <bluewave> monika__, no
[08:09] <monika__> bluewave, what should I do then
[08:09] <bluewave> you can't delete them if there's a lock, lol
[08:09] <monika__> bluewave, what are you saying?
[08:09] <bluewave> restart, or kill process that is locking it
[08:09] <sylvisj> vbgunz: you had my hopes up when you joined #cedega, then promptly crushed them
[08:09] <bluewave> delete files, lol you are a real noob
[08:09] <monika__> bluewave, how much unix experience do you have?
[08:10] <ForzaPalermo> hey guys..... i cant upgrade to fiesty fawn because its telling me i need about 300mb more of diskspace... but i wanna know what i can uninstall or take out.... i have 5gbs partitioned to kubuntu.... so i really dont know why i even need space
[08:10] <bluewave> like, 5 years...
[08:10] <ForzaPalermo> any help is appreciated. thanks
[08:10] <vbgunz> sylvisj: heh, sorry about that I don't use it :(
[08:10] <bluewave> press ctrl+delete
[08:10] <monika__> "<bluewave> you can't delete them if there's a lock"
[08:10] <wolferine> to confirm my fstab settings are correct, can I restart a service?
[08:10] <monika__> anybody that has a real answer?
[08:11] <wolferine> or does it take effect immediately?
[08:11] <Jucato> !adeptfix | monika__
[08:11] <ubotu> monika__: 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
[08:11] <npurciful> I upgrade to Feisty and i seem to have problems exec shell scripts from portable USB HDD. Has anyone had this problem or know anything about it.
[08:11] <monika__> Jucato, thank you very much
[08:12] <lavid> npurciful: me too!
[08:12] <lavid> npurciful: i had that problem last night. it was driving me nuts
[08:13] <bluewave> monika__, you can't delete locked files...
[08:13] <npurciful> hum
[08:13] <bluewave> monika__, what's wrong with that?
[08:13] <monika__> bluewave, for your information there is no lock file concept in unix
[08:13] <monika__> that's a windows thing
[08:13] <bluewave> no?
[08:14] <npurciful> lavid: I tried reinstalling that didnt help, weird
[08:14] <ForzaPalermo> anyone?
[08:14] <lavid> npurciful: yeah, i had the issue on a fresh install
[08:15] <npurciful> lavid: I have been researching it but have found a solution.
[08:15] <DarkWizzard> Hello.When I'm trying to upgrade to feisty I get an error about gzip exiting with error code 1
[08:15] <DarkWizzard> when trying to download Packages.gz
[08:16] <ju_> can someone tell me where do I have to go for a problem with my laptop touchpad on festy ?
[08:16] <DarkWizzard> kubuntu
[08:16] <lavid> npurciful: the solution is easy, but getting it fixed by default is the goal
[08:16] <npurciful> lavid: true
[08:16] <what_if> I have no WM when running beryl, how do I fix / enable it
[08:16] <Jucato> Beryl *is* the WM
[08:17] <DarkWizzard> has anyone experienced this error ?
[08:17] <DarkWizzard> I searched on the forums
[08:17] <DarkWizzard> but no solution
[08:17] <hitmanWilly> what_if, do you use nvidia?
[08:17] <DarkWizzard> and I heard that it is not advised to upgrade manually
[08:17] <vbgunz> brb
[08:17] <lavid> what_if: , Jucato i think he means that his window decorations don't show up
[08:17] <DarkWizzard> and I know it's not from experience
[08:17] <what_if> Jucato: yes, but the WM is not running, no "minimise, max, close", in upper right
[08:17] <janjan> hey s there any one who knows the change da desktop resolution?
[08:18] <what_if> hitmanWilly: yes, nvidia
[08:18] <DarkWizzard> janjan: man xrandr
[08:18] <Jucato> what_if: install Aquamarine, then from the Beryl system tray menu, choose Aquamarine as your window decorator
[08:18] <janjan> ok thanks
[08:18] <gdiebel> wolferine: just reboot.
[08:18] <Jucato> what_if: also... try asking in #beryl or #ubuntu-effects
[08:18] <hitmanWilly> what_if, run sudo nvidia-xconfig --add-argb-glx-visuals, then restart x
[08:18] <Elite2142_> I done sudo apt-get install ubuntu-enchanted-extras and it downloaded and installed, I restarted firefox and still same error :|
[08:18] <DarkWizzard> Failed to fetch http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/edgy/universe/binary-i386/Packages.gz Sub-process gzip returned an error code (1)
[08:19] <wolferine> gdiebel, is that whats required, or just a suggestion?
[08:19] <DarkWizzard> what is causing this ?
[08:20] <what_if> hitmanWilly: ok, restarting X
[08:21] <lavid> npurciful: i'm filing a bug report now
[08:22] <tarelerulz> beside the location are in Kubuntu's konqeror it has filter and I wanted to do that in my ubuntu konqeror do any of you know how to do that
[08:23] <hitmanWilly> what_if, how'd it go?
[08:23] <what_if> the nvidia-xconfig line worked... :)
[08:23] <vicks> i can't get usb to work in feisty, can someone help me? i have installed kubuntu feisty, and nothing happens when i insert usb-peripherals. i can't even install ubuntu (gnome), cause the installation hangs at the end when trying to load the usb-starage module.
[08:23] <what_if> hitmanWilly: works 100%
[08:24] <hitmanWilly> what_if, emerald (the beryl window manager) needs ARGB GLX Visuals turned on to work
[08:24] <ForzaPalermo> how could kubuntu take up almost 5gb without having installed much of anything besides the os??
[08:24] <hitmanWilly> what_if, took me a couple hours to figure that one out :)
[08:25] <what_if> hitmanWilly: well I'm glad you were here, I was benging my head on the keyboard (figuretively)
[08:25] <what_if> *banging
[08:25] <hitmanWilly> what_if, figuratively? i do it literally like every day :)
[08:25] <Cugel> Question: how do I enable the new desktop effects? Everything on the internet speaks about Gnome.
[08:26] <tarelerulz> You all are running Kubuntu and if so have you ever notice that  search bar beside the main one where you can go to dirs and url
[08:26] <what_if> hitmanWilly: I save that for work, I administer XP machines (and an XP server)
[08:26] <tarelerulz> Of Konqeror
[08:26] <hitmanWilly> what_if, i feel sorry for you now...
[08:27] <what_if> hitmanWilly: yeah, MS SQL 2000 on an XP machine == pain
[08:27] <hitmanWilly> ugh
[08:27] <what_if> hitmanWilly: beryl seems to be on "random" for the effects... oh no,no,no :)
[08:27] <gdiebel> wolferine: nothing is required after making changes to fstab. if a new mount point is added, though, you may need to restart so it can be automounted or seen by hal.
[08:28] <frojnd> why the f** would allways close my amarok when I prees on the icon ?? here is the output: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/16615/
[08:28] <Elite2142> The plugins still dont work :|
[08:30] <JanK_> i just closed adept_updater during update to feisty, because it hang during installation (on 10%).
[08:30] <kalorin> JanK, you're in big trouble!
[08:30] <shinobi> allright. two machines over to feisty and back functioning. think this has been the smoothest one yet.
[08:30] <wolferine> frojnd, reinstall
[08:30] <JanK_> now i can't restart it, since it locked the apt file
[08:31] <Elite2142> janK , i done that and had to format :|
[08:31] <frojnd> wolferine: how
[08:31] <Elite2142> well that was on ubuntu and went to kubuntu so i was going to anyway
[08:31] <tarelerulz> In Kubuntu's version of Konqeror there is  what look like search bar beside the main place where you put urls and dir searchs Do any of you know what to install to get the second search bar
[08:31] <JanK_> how to see which locks the file "E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?"
[08:31] <wolferine> frojnd, are you not familiar with installing software?
[08:32] <frojnd> woferine: I didn't installed it manually
[08:32] <wolferine> thats not what I asked though
[08:32] <peaker> I just booted Windows for the first time in ages. It sure is ugly and has much less nice Free stuff.  But it does launch firefox and other apps *instantly*, where it takes 2-5 seconds on Kubuntu :-(
[08:33] <kalorin> peaker I only saw instantly if it was already in memory
[08:33] <kalorin> otherwise it was about the same speed
[08:34] <peaker> kalorin: donno, maybe, but even in memory stuff here doesn't launch as fast
[08:34] <gdiebel> wolferine: curious; why did you need to modify fstab?
[08:34] <peaker> takes 2-3 seconds to relaunch firefox, whereas it is unnoticable 0 time on Windows
[08:34] <wolferine> gdiebel, working on making my drive accesses faster
[08:34] <CapaH> I am hoping someone can help me out... I have an ATI card, I just finished installing Feisty from a LIVE CD (iso downloaded from ubuntu.com) --- install went fine, but I had to set the video mode using F4 when the LIVE CD started (I set it to 1024x768) --- but now when I boot the comp, it crashes at the splash screen -- I suspect it due to either video drivers or resolution, but xorg.conf is set to 1024x768 --- any ideas?
[08:34] <gdiebel> wolferine: your cdrom?
[08:35] <wolferine> no
[08:35] <wolferine> everything
[08:37] <wolferine> nautilus is taking quite a time to read my drives
[08:38] <wolferine> so I am mainly trying to work with my smb/nfs mounts, to getting a better response time
[08:38] <frojnd> wolferine: I only now how to remove the amarok package and than install it. But not in one command to reinstall it. So if u know I would be much grateful
[08:38] <bud> Kubuntu 6.06in box, can Idownload Kubuntu 7.04?
[08:39] <wolferine> frojnd, do that, remove, reinstall
[08:39] <weedar> does apt-get have a log so I can see which packages were removed during last upgrade?
[08:42] <gdiebel> weedar: cat /var/log/dpkg.log
[08:42] <weedar> gdiebel: thanks! :)
[08:42] <frojnd> why update don't wanna to get through: I was doing update like 20 times yesterday and 10 times today: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/16619/
[08:43] <zaza> salut
[08:43] <weedar> frojnd: my uneducated guess is that the http://si.archive.ubuntu.com repository is down
[08:43] <wolferine> !fr  | zaza
[08:43] <ubotu> zaza: Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[08:44] <gdiebel> frojnd: don't hammer the servers. just have a little patience
[08:44] <frojnd> gdiebel: I am having patience for 30 hours now..
[08:44] <weedar> frojnd: you could try changing the prefix "si" to another country, I'm using no and it works fine
[08:45] <zerak> is ubuntu and kubuntu still overloaded of all downloads and if it fails to download could that be the reason?
[08:45] <frojnd> and why amarok still crashes after I reinstalled it
[08:45] <frojnd> (I am using feisty beta)
[08:46] <zerak> feisty isnt beta anymore
[08:46] <gdiebel> frojnd: for amarok crashes see #amarok
[08:46] <zerak> it fails to update to feisty, is this due to the large demand ?
[08:48] <zerak> since it reference to a site and direction that doesnt exist
[08:49] <wolferine> can I view an nfs drive, like a smb drive, in my ftpd, proftpd?

[08:50] <zerak> i didnt pick the mirror
[08:50] <zerak> kubuntu update did
[08:51] <tarelerulz> any of you heard of this plugin for konqeror Folder View Filter
[08:51] <zerak> that was what i previously asked, if it was due to all people
[08:51] <Eskim0> what does it mean when I get this error?? "unknown mime-type for "/etc/fstab" -- using "application/*"
[08:53] <nzk> where is the trash
[08:53] <nzk> "empty trash" doesnt work
[08:53] <gdiebel> Eskim0: what does 'file -i /etc/fstab' ?
[08:53] <Eskim0> gdiebel that is what I think it is
[08:54] <gdiebel> nzk: .local/share/Trash
[08:54] <Eskim0> gdiebel I am trying to set a partition to auto mount at starup
[08:55] <nzk> gdiebel, not there

[08:59] <alesan^> hi, what is the best way to mount rw a ntfs partition?
[09:01] <gdiebel> !ntfs | alesan^
[09:01] <ubotu> alesan^: To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[09:02] <alesan^> !ntfs-3g
[09:02] <ubotu> ntfs-3g is is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. It has been extensively tested but please remember to keep backups of critical data.

[09:02] <VSpike> Fiesty fails to install for me ... bails when installing grub.  Is this a known problem?
[09:03] <VSpike> I also really hate the way the installer takes ages to load disk paritioner with no visual indication of what it is doing, apart from disabled next and back buttons...
[09:03] <wolferine> can I get a link on how to update to Feisty?
[09:03] <VSpike> All that time spent figuring out how much it could shrink parititions by, when I don't want to do that.. I want a manual setup. It should ask auto or manual first IMO.
[09:03] <wolferine> i am having a really hard time with it
[09:04] <VSpike> There's also a bug.. it wants to format the swap partition even if the box is not ticked to format it.
[09:05] <vbgunz> upgrading sucks for me, it's killing my day :(
[09:05] <VSpike> And when you get to the page where it says what it's about to do to your disks, if you hit back it takes you right back to the start of the partitioning tool and spends another few minutes scanning the disks
[09:07] <gdiebel> vbgunz: consider waiting until another day to upgrade. that is _if_ your system was left in a usable state.
[09:08] <wolferine> i have the CD, but it seems it needs to connect to my repos to update
[09:08] <wolferine> which I am nost sure why
[09:08] <vbgunz> gdiebel: yeah, it appears I will have to no doubt do this :(
[09:11] <maki> where can i setip the dns providers
[09:12] <wolferine> maki, for what
[09:12] <wolferine> i maybe able to help
[09:12] <maki> i have problem
[09:12] <maki> i have net
[09:12] <wolferine> really, thats why most of us are here :)

[09:13] <vbgunz> somehow someway, ipython for Python2.5 was holding my dist-upgrade back... I uninstalled ipython and it appears I am dist-upgrading just fine :D
[09:13] <wolferine> which?
[09:13] <maki> konqueror
[09:13] <maki> mozila
[09:13] <Fishy> Is there a workaround to get the drivers from ati homepage to install in feisty?
[09:13] <maki> opera
[09:13] <vbgunz> I'll reinstall ipython but wtf could cause this to happen?
[09:13] <wolferine> FF you mean
[09:13] <Fishy> It complains that my X version is not supported
[09:13] <wolferine> ok, and what domain, all, or just one?
[09:13] <maki> yep
[09:13] <Fishy> Although it should be
[09:14] <maki> all
[09:14] <wolferine> this a new install maki?
[09:14] <maki> no
[09:14] <wolferine> maki, change your settings recently?
[09:14] <maki> now stoped working
[09:14] <maki> no
[09:14] <wolferine> are you sure
[09:14] <maki> yes
[09:14] <maki> i run adept
[09:14] <wolferine> and it was working before
[09:15] <maki> yep
[09:15] <wolferine> ok, well you obviously changed something
[09:15] <wolferine> it doesnt just "stop" working all by itself
[09:15] <maki> yes
[09:15] <maki> i know
[09:15] <wolferine> catch my drift?
[09:15] <wolferine> if you know, then you must have changed something
[09:16] <rohan> i have plain ubuntu (gnome) installed. i want to install kubuntu. i am not on linux now, so is there any way i can generate a list of packages to be downloaded ?
[09:16] <wolferine> as you were saying, you ran adept...
[09:16] <orient2000> Hi! My bottom bar on desktop use to hide automaticly and now I can not get it back. How can I get into setup? There is nothing in a systemsetting.
[09:16] <wolferine> orient2000, scroll near it
[09:16] <wolferine> move the mouse to the bottom
[09:16] <orient2000> nothing.
[09:17] <wolferine> orent, sure you didnt just remove it?
[09:17] <gdiebel> orient2000: try Alt+F1, this will launch kmenu
[09:17] <vbgunz> rohan: try just installing kubuntu-desktop
[09:18] <asmith42b> This is trivial, I know: Are there any IMers that let you do custom emoticons?
[09:18] <wolferine> sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[09:18] <rohan> vbgunz: that's exactly what i want to do, but i need a list of packages to be downloaded with it, because i can download for free here, but ubuntu is not installed here
[09:18] <gdiebel> asmith42b: gaim
[09:18] <rohan> can someone please paste the output of 'sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop --print-uris'
[09:19] <wolferine> no pastebin

[09:19] <rohan> vbgunz: :(
[09:19] <asmith42b> gdiebel: Really? I'll have to look more closely. I haven't found that option yet.

[09:20] <vbgunz> rohan: well apt allowed me to do it in another session but I am told I already have the latest version of kubuntu-desktop
[09:20] <Rogue> I guessed this channel and this server
[09:21] <Rogue> can anyone help me install kubuntu? I'm having difficulty with the latest version
[09:21] <rohan> vbgunz: oh well :(
[09:21] <pCarsten> has anyone here had success installing fop on ubuntu?
[09:21] <gdiebel> Rogue: error?
[09:21] <rohan> because i have no way of accessing the ubuntu machine atm
[09:21] <Rogue> gdiebel: http://www.imagepup.com/up/53Yj_1177096386_snapshot1.png
[09:21] <l_r> where is the link to the dvd version???
[09:22] <vbgunz> wolferine: how did you get that list?
[09:22] <zerak> uhm, USB Memory Stick Booting doesnt just boot and ask you a question about installing it, right? There should be a sticky that warn about inserting it without intending to remove current OS...
[09:22] <rohan> wolferine: had you added the --print-uris ?
[09:22] <l_r> there's only a link to dvd-torrent-thing
[09:22] <wolferine> vbgunz, which list?
[09:22] <l_r> i do not even know what a torrent is
[09:22] <vbgunz> list of kubuntu-desktop apps
[09:22] <wolferine> yes, rohan, it wasnt all those
[09:22] <Rogue> I want it to install on the last partition but if I click next it says "no root file system is defined please correct this from the partitioning menu"
[09:22] <rohan> wolferine: well, because the URLS werent' printed .. strange
[09:23] <rockstar-alt> hello any 1 here
[09:24] <wolferine> urls?
[09:24] <wolferine> for what?
[09:24] <wolferine> the repos
[09:24] <rohan> no, the package urls
[09:24] <rohan> there was a command which prints out the package urls
[09:24] <rohan> yes, it is "--print-uris"
[09:24] <l_r> why is so difficult to get links to the dvd versions through ftp? i always have to ask here as the homepage does not have direct links
[09:25] <Rogue> gdiebel: any ideas?
[09:25] <rohan> sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop --print-uris -y
[09:25] <gdiebel> Rogue: looks like you need to set mountpoints for / and swap
[09:25] <rockstar-alt> im a newbie i need some help but havent got the time now ill leave this channel open untill i get back from work at 4.00am
[09:25] <hendaus> can anyone tell me about a good addon to download videos from youtube?
[09:25] <wolferine> l_r, torrents
[09:26] <rohan> can you check whether that command prints individual urls of .deb files, wolferine ?
[09:26] <Rogue> gdiebel: what does that mean?
[09:26] <wolferine> that was what it printed
[09:26] <gdiebel> Rogue: click on sda1 , edit partition, set mount point to /
[09:26] <l_r> wolferine, only torrents?
[09:26] <l_r> what are them?
[09:26] <Rogue> ok
[09:26] <wolferine> l_r, google it
[09:26] <gdiebel> Rogue: click on sda5, edit partition, set mount to swap
[09:26] <vbgunz> am going to reboot, hopefully my upgrade didn't break apart :(
[09:27] <wolferine> rohan, u need the repos, use the ubuntu guide (google it)
[09:27] <gdiebel> Rogue: be careful here. are those partitions blank?
[09:27] <Rogue> no I was about to ask
[09:27] <rohan> wolferine: i know ..
[09:27] <Rogue> I don't want to format any of these
[09:27] <wolferine> with proftpd, I just setup a nfs share, i can view my smb shares when connecting, but not the nfs shares ( not a permissions issue)
[09:27] <Rogue> can I not just have it install on the last fat32 partition? :(
[09:27] <wolferine> rohan, what do you want from me?
[09:27] <Rogue> I appreciate the help by the way. This is the first time I've considered installing linux.
[09:28] <rockstar-alt> can any 1 help me with this >> direct rendering: No
[09:28] <rockstar-alt> OpenGL renderer string: Mesa GLX Indirect
[09:28] <rohan> wolferine: output of the command "sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop --print-uris -y" if it's not too inconvenient ... please check if it prints out the URLs of specific pakcages to be downloaded
[09:28] <gdiebel> Rogue: what is one first hard disk, sda?
[09:29] <CVirus> The updgrade tool crashed while installing the packages and it freezed now ... wtf shall I do ?
[09:29] <wolferine> yes, your highness
[09:29] <gdiebel> s/one/on
[09:29] <Rogue> the first hard disk is a 250GB SATA drive partitioned into 2 NTFS partitions of 50 and 200 each
[09:29] <Rogue> the first 50 has windows on it and the 200 has data
[09:29] <wolferine> rohan, ill pastebin, one sec
[09:30] <wolferine> http://pastebin.ca/450325
[09:30] <wolferine> there you are
[09:30] <CVirus> !adept
[09:30] <ubotu> adept is the Kubuntu package manager. Howto: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AdeptHowto
[09:30] <slicknick> yall got a pastebin for screenshots?
[09:30] <wolferine> a pastebin?
[09:30] <asmith42b> gdiebel: gaim allows you to install custom smiley packages, but not just add new ones on the fly, with custom keystrokes, which is what I'm after.
[09:30] <wolferine> um, not sure
[09:31] <slicknick> sorry
[09:31] <slicknick> meant tinyimg
[09:31] <slicknick> so i can show a screenshot ...
[09:31] <gdiebel> Rogue: ok sorry misread the image the first time. so second disk with those fat32 partitions is up to be formatted?
[09:31] <ubuntu> hello
[09:31] <Rogue> um ideally no :/
[09:31] <CapaH> Q) I cannot boot into KDE unless I first take off "splash" during boot --- It will not go into the splash screen. What happens is, at the screen where you choose the OS to boot, as soon as it starts to load the flash screen both monitors go "No signal" and my caps lock+scroll lock keys flash until I reboot. I am using an ATI X800 --- Any help is tremendously appreciated. -- anyone?
[09:31] <rockstar-alt> hello can u help me plz
[09:31] <rohan> wolferine: great ! thanks :)
[09:31] <wolferine> np
[09:31] <Rogue> can I do this without formatting, gdiebel?
[09:31] <wolferine> slicknick, you post it on your website :)
[09:32] <CVirus> The updgrade tool crashed while installing the packages and it freezed now ... wtf shall I do ?
[09:32] <slicknick> i dunt have no website :P
[09:32] <slicknick> anyone seen this sort of behavior from rdesktop before? this is a dual monitor screenshot with an rdesktop session to a windows machine on the right side of the image. http://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=2ushbav
[09:32] <wolferine> CVirus, kill it, open a shell, sudo ps -A
[09:32] <wolferine> then look for the installer's process id
[09:32] <mkirk> hello! Was anyone able to get netowrking to work with feisty on a thinkpad T40(ish)
[09:32] <Rogue> I just want it to install on the last fat32 partition whilst leaving what is there alone (nothing there would have names conflicting with kubuntu's root folders)
[09:32] <CVirus> wolferine: did that already .. it's not running
[09:32] <wolferine> then do sudo kill -9 process_id
[09:32] <l_r> it seems the link to the dvd "torrent" is down. could oyu confirm?
[09:33] <CVirus> !adept lock
[09:33] <wolferine> CVirus, ctrl-alt-backspace
[09:33] <l_r> i am getting mad to just doewnload a damn .iso dvd image
[09:33] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about adept lock - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:33] <CVirus> wolferine: why ?
[09:33] <wolferine> to exit the wm, then log back in
[09:33] <CVirus> wolferine: why ?
[09:33] <wolferine> its froze
[09:33] <wolferine> that will kill it
[09:33] <gdiebel> Rogue: not in this case, you need at least 2 partitions to be formatted for linux. they need to use a file system called ext3. perhaps you could consolidate some of the data on those partitions and free one up. the 20gb would be enough space
[09:34] <the-erm> the updater crashed ... It never completed what should I do?
[09:34] <CapaH> If anyone said something directed to me I had to reboot
[09:34] <wolferine> the-erm, try it again
[09:34] <Rogue> bah.
[09:34] <the-erm> wolferine: can't.
[09:34] <CVirus> wolferine: I killed it already
[09:34] <wolferine> the-erm, what error
[09:34] <Rogue> so I have to have some space dedicated to ext3?
 The updgrade tool crashed while installing the packages and it freezed now ... wtf shall I do ?
[09:34] <the-erm> wolferine: I started adept_updater It thinks 7.04 is installed, but never restarted.
[09:34] <gdiebel> Rogue: yes you cannot use fat32 for linux
[09:35] <Rogue> oh
[09:35] <wolferine> then I instructed you to kill it, which you were not able to do
[09:35] <Rogue> damn, I thought it could.
[09:35] <wolferine> now you said it is, so problem solved?
[09:35] <Rogue> :(
[09:35] <gdiebel> Rogue: perhaps consolidate the files from those other partitions and free one up
[09:35] <CVirus> wolferine: It locked the .deb database ... do i rm -rf /var/lib/dpkg/lock ?
[09:36] <Rogue> yeah, I can delete stuff I have backed up to DVD. TV series etc
[09:36] <Rogue> question:
[09:36] <wolferine> CVirus, not sure
[09:36] <gdiebel> Rogue: you may have heard that linux supports mounting fat32, which it can, but not for its root file system
[09:36] <Rogue> how can I see those current drives
[09:36] <Rogue> are they under /sds/
[09:36] <Rogue> if you can't tell I really have very little experience with this :P
[09:36] <wolferine> the-erm, what error are you having?
[09:37] <CVirus> the freakin' upgrade tool crashed and left my system crappy !!!
[09:37] <gdiebel> Rogue: reboot into windows and use whatever you are comfortable with to free up the space, then use windows disk management tool to delete the partition. then kubuntu will auto partition the freed space.
[09:38] <Rogue> ok
[09:38] <CVirus> stupid binary distro
[09:38] <andreasw> german umlauts and the  isn't displayed correctly in the console (the real one ;) ) how can I change this behaviour?
[09:38] <Rogue> I'd prefer that to having to use partitiontragic
[09:38] <andreasw> if I install ubuntu I see them (but not under Kubuntu)
[09:39] <Rogue> I wonder if windows will hold up long enough for me to move all my files off one partition though ;)
[09:39] <gdiebel> Rogue: check the ubuntu faq on paritioning before proceeding. I would not want you to mess up your system because of my advise
[09:39] <Rogue> yeah
[09:39] <Rogue> windows has been BSODing on me all week
[09:39] <Rogue> to be fair I think it's my RAM but kubuntu hasn't crashed yet now that I'm trying to run it in anger
[09:39] <Rogue> so I shall give it the benefit of the doubt :P
[09:39] <thill2708_> how do I get java applets to run in konqueror?
[09:40] <thill2708_> I keep getting told that java isn't installed, and I know it is
[09:40] <gdiebel> Rogue: a good way to tell if it is ram is to do the memtest on the kubuntu cd
[09:40] <Rogue> I ran memtest86+ already
[09:40] <Rogue> I know my RAM is dying :(
[09:40] <andreasw> thill2708_: check the java settings in konqueror
[09:40] <MinceR> do you know of window managers with focus stealing prevention other than kwin, metacity, compiz and beryl?
[09:41] <gdiebel> Rogue: you mean you got errors from memtest?
[09:41] <Rogue> ohhhh yeah
[09:41] <Rogue> lots
[09:41] <thill2708_> andreasw; what am I looking for specifically?
[09:41] <thill2708_> java is enabled globally
[09:41] <CVirus> the freakin' upgrade tool crashed and left my system crappy !!!
[09:41] <gdiebel> Rogue: replace the ram before messing around with installing kubuntu
[09:41] <Rogue> definitely?
[09:41] <gdiebel> Rogue: trust me
[09:41] <andreasw> thill2708_: on the same screen you see a text field where you can set the path to java executable
[09:42] <Rogue> bleh but RMAing it will mean I have no PC for a week :P
[09:42] <wolferine> ncix?
[09:42] <Rogue> I want to see if I can hobble on with kubuntu for a bit :D
[09:43] <thill2708_> andreasw; thanks, that seemed to work. It said "java" before, but changing it to /usr/bin/java made it work. Wonder why?
[09:43] <andreasw> thill2708_: when did you install java?
[09:44] <thill2708_> whenever I installed kubuntu
[09:44] <chewietoy> how do i check verision of ubuntu that im running?
[09:44] <andreasw> thill2708_: ok ;) but did you log out and log in after installation?
[09:44] <ubuntu> hi
[09:44] <chewietoy> hi
[09:44] <thill2708_> andreasw; Yeah, sure, plenty of times. I've been running this for ~8 mos. now
[09:45] <andreasw> thill2708_: ok
[09:45] <u0526385> Alguien Habla espaol ?????????????????
[09:46] <andreasw> thill2708_: for some people it works just with "java" in the field and for others have to specify the full path
[09:46] <Rogue> gdiebel: can I see what files are in my FAT32 partitions from here, now?
[09:47] <colini> hi

[09:49] <thill2708_> hah, :) thanks anyhow
[09:49] <Rogue> wolferine: haha I know :)
[09:49] <dettoaltrimenti> question: if I have a text file, and I want to replace every instance of one phrase with another phrase (for example, replace every <div id="green"> with <div id="blue>, is there any way I can do this from the command line without actually going into vim?
[09:49] <gdiebel> Rogue: yeah check like wolferine said check the faq and read some info on linux file system handling, mount, fstab
[09:50] <Rogue> thanks
[09:50] <colini> dettoaltrimenti: you could use 'sed'

[09:54] <ubuntu> HELP
[09:54] <Daisuke_Ido> ubuntu: you need to enable the universe repository
[09:54] <Daisuke_Ido> !universe
[09:54] <ubotu> The packages in Kubuntu are divided into various sections. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Kubuntu
[09:54] <Cugel> Question: how do I enable the new desktop effects? Everything on the internet speaks about Gnome.
[09:54] <wolferine> Cugel what exactly?
[09:55] <gdiebel> !compiz | Cugel
[09:55] <ubotu> Cugel: Compiz (compositing window manager) and XGL (X server architecture layered on top of OpenGL) - Howto at http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager - See http://tinyurl.com/pw5ez for Kubuntu systems - Help in #ubuntu-effects
[09:55] <ubuntu> ok
[09:55] <ubuntu> thanks Daisuke_Ido
[09:55] <Cugel> gdiebel: thanks.
[09:55] <Daisuke_Ido> you're welcome
[09:55] <dettoaltrimenti> thanks gdiebel
[09:56] <colini> dettoaltrimenti: i'm no sed expert.  this is a good intro to sed: http://www-128.ibm.com/developerworks/linux/library/l-sed1.html
[09:56] <Daisuke_Ido> nice thing is the repos are just about back up to speed
[09:56] <wolferine> who is good with updating to Feisty?
[09:57] <Daisuke_Ido> wolferine: if by "updating" you mean "trying the upgrader, waiting 5 hours, getting mad, cancelling, and installing from scratch from cd", i'm your man
[09:57] <hitmanWilly> lol
[09:57] <Daisuke_Ido> so yeah, probably not me
[09:57] <chewietoy> heh
[09:57] <dettoaltrimenti> thank you very much, one more question: if I have a text file full of links to .html files, is there any way to wget download all of those html files into a certain directory?
[09:58] <wolferine> Daisuke_Ido, how do I JUST do a CD install
[09:58] <Daisuke_Ido> eh?
[09:58] <wolferine> s/install/update
[09:58] <mkirk> dettoaltrimenti: wget can recurse
[09:58] <wolferine> as i get it connecting to the net to install packages
[09:58] <mkirk> dettoaltrimenti: for mirroring :D use it carefully
[09:58] <hitmanWilly> dettoaltrimenti, maybe cat <textfile> > wget
[09:58] <Daisuke_Ido> torrent the alternate cd image and you can use it as a repo to upgrade from without worrying about downloading packages
[09:59] <wolferine> Daisuke_Ido, I tried it twice now, just keeps accessing them online
[09:59] <Daisuke_Ido> alternate cd?
[09:59] <wolferine> change my sources.list then?
[09:59] <colini> is there a "live cd" for kubuntu 7.04?  i'd like to test things out before installation
[09:59] <Daisuke_Ido> colini: there certainly is
[09:59] <wolferine> Daisuke_Ido, the exact same setup as you, alter. CD
[10:00] <Daisuke_Ido> wolferine: i installed from scratch from the live cd
[10:00] <colini> daisuke_ido, thanks.  is there a torrent?
[10:00] <wolferine> new install, no update?
[10:00] <ian_> hi
[10:00] <Daisuke_Ido> wolferine: right
[10:00] <ubuntu> Daisuke_Ido:  i am in the adapt manager and i cant find the deb line that i need to edit and it doesnt tell me how to get there
[10:01] <wolferine> k, thats not waht I want to do
[10:01] <ian_> has another upgraded to fesity with a acer laptop ?
[10:01] <aro> I've installed fglrx drivers properly with my ATI Radeon 9800 and fglrxinfo shows proper drivers, vendors, and "direct rendering: yes". I've installed XGL and properly loaded my KDE desktop under it, but everything performs unbelievably badly. All windows and menus take 30+ seconds to open and all graphics are sluggish beyond belief.
[10:01] <Daisuke_Ido> ubuntu: feisty or edgy?
[10:01] <aro> Anyone know what I can do?
[10:01] <wolferine> aro use #ubuntu-effects to ask that

[10:02] <ubuntu> are flawed
[10:03] <ubuntu> adapt manager
[10:03] <Daisuke_Ido> right
[10:03] <Daisuke_Ido> the reason it's off is because adept changed versions for feisty and things are in new places
[10:03] <Daisuke_Ido> you have a few tabs, Kubuntu Software, Third-Party Software, etc, etc, right?
[10:04] <ubuntu> yes
[10:04] <hendaus> helpers when i open democarcy tv player --> An unknown error has occurred while finishing starting up , can anyone help
[10:04] <ubuntu> i checked all boxes
[10:04] <Daisuke_Ido> on that first tab, check em all
[10:04] <Daisuke_Ido> then close
[10:04] <ubuntu> next to universe and multiverse
[10:04] <ubuntu> ok
[10:04] <Daisuke_Ido> then fetch updates :)
[10:04] <nutshell42> Daisuke_Ido: is knetworkmanager that thing in the system config dialog? if that's the case I don't care if it's better than the old one. The old one didn't work, the new one doesn't; not much difference imho
[10:04] <Daisuke_Ido> nutshell42: oh, oh god no
[10:04] <Daisuke_Ido> no no no
[10:05] <Daisuke_Ido> the system config network manager is craptacular
[10:05] <nutshell42> the only way to get a working network config if you don't use dhcp, is to purge interfaces yourself
[10:05] <ubuntu> fetch updates is greyed out Daisuke_Ido
[10:05] <Daisuke_Ido> ?
[10:05] <Daisuke_Ido> close and restart adept manager
[10:05] <ubuntu> nvm got it
[10:05] <Daisuke_Ido> k :)
[10:06] <Daisuke_Ido> nutshell42: knetworkmanager is actually a *good* network tool
[10:06] <wolferine> with proftpd, I just setup a nfs share, i can view my smb shares when connecting, but not the nfs shares ( not a permissions issue)
[10:06] <Daisuke_Ido> wolferine: nfs is way over my head :D
[10:06] <nutshell42> Daisuke_Ido: if I start the config from the knetworkmanager context menu, it sure as hell *looks* exactly like the one from the system settings
[10:07] <ubuntu> its finally working thanks Daisuke_Ido
[10:07] <wolferine> Daisuke_Ido, its really straight forward
[10:07] <Daisuke_Ido> you're welcome
[10:07] <wolferine> the issues are with how they interact with other applications I need help with :)
[10:08] <Daisuke_Ido> nutshell42: use whatever you like, it's about choice
[10:08] <nutshell42> Daisuke_Ido: what *should* I like? All I want is a tool that works when I don't use dhcp
[10:08] <nutshell42> knetworkmanager doesn't
[10:08] <gdiebel> why would you not use dhcp?
[10:09] <thefirstdude> dhcp sucks
[10:09] <lparry_busy[||-] > ?
[10:09] <pulaski> hello all
[10:09] <nutshell42> gdiebel: why would I?
[10:09] <Daisuke_Ido> personally, i use a manual address anyway
[10:10] <thefirstdude> it's nice to be certain what your ip is
[10:10] <Daisuke_Ido> so i never mess with dhcp
[10:10] <nutshell42> me too
[10:10] <gdiebel> nutshell42: nearly all cases where static ip addresses are useful can be fulfilled with fixed leases from a dhcp server
[10:10] <pulaski> I just got feisty fawn 7.04 going and now I'm trying to set up a java IDE with the JRE using my firefox browser.
[10:11] <nutshell42> gdiebel: nearly all features of an irc client can be emulated by using netcat and the correct msgs
[10:11] <pulaski> I used adept to grab sun-java5-jdk & the sun-java5-jre
[10:11] <nutshell42> so why do *you* use an irc client
[10:11] <ubuntu> whats the command to view my own ip in Konsole ifconfigure isnt working
[10:11] <Daisuke_Ido> ooh, ooh, i know this one!
[10:11] <pulaski> but firefox is not loading applets cat all
[10:11] <Daisuke_Ido> ubuntu: ifconfig
[10:11] <pulaski> at all
[10:11] <ubuntu> !ip
[10:11] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ip - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:11] <Daisuke_Ido> no ure
[10:12] <thefirstdude> nutshell, brilliant, why didn't I think of that instead of firefox
[10:12] <pulaski> konqueror is not much better
[10:12] <nutshell42> thefirstdude: =P
[10:12] <gdiebel> nutshell42: that analogy is not very good. one uses an irc client for convenience. likewise dhcp is more convenient than static
[10:13] <orient2000> maybe look at firefox setup
[10:13] <hendaus> helpers when i open democarcy tv player --> An unknown error has occurred while finishing starting up , can anyone help
[10:13] <nutshell42> not if you have to mess around with an dhcp server to emulate a static setup
[10:13] <pulaski> has anyone any experience with adept loading both the java5 jdk and jre
[10:13] <gdiebel> nutshell42: my point is what is your compelling reason to use a static ip on the box?
[10:13] <hitmanWilly> pulaski, i think there's a seperate pkg for the firefox plugin
[10:14] <nutshell42> winxp's network handling with dhcp is sh*t
[10:14] <pulaski> good that's helpful
[10:14] <acetoxy> My mouse pointer doesn't move fast enough, and the mouse settings doesn't change anything.  but where the applet is, it's just a gray box.
[10:17] <Cugel> Yes, but why?
[10:17] <Daisuke_Ido> ubuntu: easy, username ubuntu, no password
[10:17] <ubuntu> sudo su and what else?
[10:18] <mfyz> hi. my ubuntu broked after kernel update.. i have changed UUIDs to /dev/hda... and kernel not booting... i'm waiting 4-5 minutes and usplash change to some errors. error says /dev/hda2 not fount.. but grub, fstab,, all my root filesystem in /dev/hda2/// what must i do
[10:18] <aro> Guessing it can't find the plugin.
[10:18] <Daisuke_Ido> that's not root, but it's in sudoers
[10:18] <hitmanWilly> ubuntu, oh nm, ssh into live cd, gotcha
[10:18] <ubuntu> yeah
[10:18] <ubuntu> ubuntu isnt working
[10:18] <ubuntu> without a pass
[10:19] <Daisuke_Ido> that's the username
[10:19] <ubuntu> its not working
[10:19] <Daisuke_Ido> try ubuntu as a pass, but there isn't one
[10:19] <hitmanWilly> ubuntu, no pw by default
[10:19] <Daisuke_Ido> is sshd installed?
[10:19] <ubuntu> ok
[10:19] <ubuntu> yeah its running
[10:19] <Cugel> Good.
[10:19] <Cugel> Is it me or do fonts look better with Feisty? Is it the newer X?
[10:19] <Daisuke_Ido> i personally think they look better
[10:20] <Daisuke_Ido> but it's all opinion
[10:20] <ubuntu> its rejecting all suggestion you just gave me
[10:20] <ubuntu> :/
[10:20] <vbgunz> kmail is the slowest email app I've ever tried and yet I want to use it quite badly... just performance wise it is far tooo slow :(
[10:20] <nutshell42> aro: have you set the correct path in the java config of konqueror?
[10:20] <ubuntu> how do i make a pass
[10:20] <ubuntu> this isnt working
[10:21] <Cugel> vb: use Thunderbird. Yes, really.
[10:21] <nutshell42> settings->configure konqueror->java->"path to java executable"
[10:21] <hitmanWilly> ubuntu, you can sudo passwd to set up a root acct w/ passwd
[10:21] <Cugel> ubuntu: there's info on ubuntuguide.org
[10:21] <hitmanWilly> ubuntu, but if its a live cd you'll have to do it every single time you boot
[10:21] <vbgunz> Cugel: really, yes, I use Thunderbird :)
[10:21] <ubuntu> no its in vmware
[10:22] <ubuntu> i can make snapshots
[10:22] <Cugel> So why the need for kmail?
[10:22] <hitmanWilly> ubuntu, ok, well, thats how you do it
[10:22] <vbgunz> Cugel: it's got some features I like out of the box, the slow performance aint one of them though
[10:22] <ubuntu__> hi all
[10:22] <ubuntu> and the account name is ubuntu
[10:23] <ubuntu__> i have install truecrypt
[10:23] <ubuntu> how can i check the account name hitmanWilly?
[10:23] <ubuntu__> how can i start it. i am a newbee
[10:23] <Sheazsche> hey, how come kubuntu doesnt have compiz built in but ubuntu does? wtf
[10:23] <Sheazsche> does kubuntu not automatically install codecs too?
[10:23] <hitmanWilly> ubuntu, no that'll set up a root acct with the pass you type in
[10:24] <nutshell42> ubuntu__: try alt+f2
[10:24] <hitmanWilly> ubuntu, to change the user passwd it'd be sudo passwd ubuntu
[10:24] <nutshell42> write truecrypt
[10:24] <nutshell42> press enter
[10:24] <ubuntu__> where
[10:24] <nutshell42> ?
[10:24] <ubuntu> ubuntu i just did that
[10:24] <ubuntu> hitmanWilly: *
[10:24] <ubuntu> its still not working
[10:25] <tresko22> Sheazsche: http://medibuntu.sos-sts.com/
[10:25] <hitmanWilly> ubuntu, ok, you should be able to ssh in now with username:ubuntu password:<new password>
[10:25] <schmidtn> Beryl jeg har cube men den er helt blank ??
[10:25] <bnorman> hi, what is the procedure for installing adobe flash 9 ?
[10:25] <wolferine> how can I view the last x lines of a file in nano?
[10:25] <Cugel> tail file.
[10:25] <hitmanWilly> !de | schmidtn
[10:25] <ubotu> schmidtn: Deutschsprachige Hilfe fuer Probleme mit Ubuntu, Kubuntu und Edubuntu finden Sie in den Kanaelen #ubuntu-de, #kubuntu-de, #xubuntu-de und #edubuntu-de
[10:26] <tresko22> bnorman: ./install-fla* in folder after unpack
[10:26] <Frost^-> Hello. In konqueror I have that "Start Plugin" button whenever there is a flash animation. Can anyone tell me where can I configure it?
[10:26] <BadRabbit320> how do i set IRc to auto identify me when i start IRC?
[10:26] <Eskim0> how does one edit the /etc/fstab
[10:26] <nutshell42> Frost^-: in the konqueror config->plugins
[10:27] <tresko22> BadRabbit320: which client?
[10:27] <ubuntu> hitmanWilly: thanks that did the trick
[10:27] <hitmanWilly> ubuntu, ok, cool
[10:27] <Frost^-> nutshell42: What's it called?
[10:27] <tresko22> Eskim0: sudo vi /etc/fstab
[10:27] <BadRabbit320> konversation
[10:27] <nutshell42> Frost^-: there's a checkbox "load plugins on demand" or something like that
[10:27] <Eskim0> tresko22 thank you I will tryit
[10:28] <tresko22> Eskim0: alt:  sudo kate /etc/fstab
[10:28] <Frost^-> nutshell42: Oh, so it's a konqueror thing? Not something kubuntu-ish?
[10:28] <nutshell42> Frost^-: well, I just looked in the dialog here, and it's off by default
[10:28] <Frost^-> Ok nutshell42. Thanks.
[10:28] <tresko22> Eskim0: alt3: in shell, sudo konqueror, and you can edit all files :)
[10:28] <nutshell42> so, if you've reused your ~, it's probably an old setting
[10:29] <nutshell42> but the setting itself is a new konqi feature
[10:29] <Sheazsche> how come i dont need http://medibuntu.sos-sts.com/repository.php when using UBUNTU feisty? wtf
[10:29] <nutshell42> =)
[10:29] <Sheazsche> why only kubuntu?
[10:30] <Daisuke_Ido> wonder if the dev of nicotine+ plans on releasing a fesity package
[10:30] <arthur_kalm> hi everyone, I just installed 7.04 and I'm trying to use the nVidia drivers. However, after install nvidia-glx-new and setting xorg.conf to use the nvidia driver, I get the following error: (EE) Failed to load module "wfb" (module does not exist, 0)
[10:30] <arthur_kalm> I have an nVidia 8800 GTS
[10:31] <Eskim0> Tresko22 that is what I was going to ask next you beet me to it thax
[10:31] <arthur_kalm> I searched on Google and the ubuntuforums but I couldn't find any solutions, just mentions of the problem...
[10:31] <kalorin> I have an ati x700 that works, want to trade? :)
[10:31] <kalorin> sorry no idea wiht nvidia yet, want to get one though
[10:32] <hitmanWilly> arthur_kalm, it might just be a bug
[10:32] <Daisuke_Ido> arthur_kalm: look in the xorg.conf's modules section to see if there's a mention of that module in there
[10:32] <arthur_kalm> kalorin: hehe very fun ;)
[10:32] <nutshell42> arthur_kalm: have you tried removing the nvidia packages
[10:32] <nutshell42> and installing it with the official installer from the nvidia site?
[10:32] <arthur_kalm> Daisuke_Ido: I've looked, that module isn't even being loaded o_O
[10:32] <hitmanWilly> that's a major pita on ubuntu
[10:32] <arthur_kalm> hitmanWilly: perhaps...
[10:32] <kalorin> i've got a quadra at work on 6.10 and it has been kind of difficult, my buddy just got it workin on his workstaiton today
[10:32] <Daisuke_Ido> nutshell42: it's provided as a package for a reason (to make kernel module updates easier)
[10:33] <arthur_kalm> nutshelll42: not yet, I'm not exactly sure how you remove them afterwards...
[10:33] <nutshell42> Daisuke_Ido: that's fine as long as they work
[10:33] <Daisuke_Ido> it's a headache using the nvidia installer
[10:33] <arthur_kalm> nutshell42: back in Edgy (couple of hours ago) I was using the ones fromt he website
[10:33] <nutshell42> arthur_kalm: apt-get remove
[10:33] <Daisuke_Ido> nutshell42: apt-get remove won't remove the ones installed from nvidia's site
[10:33] <arthur_kalm> nutshell42: oh wait, that's right, it installes it as a package :)
[10:33] <Daisuke_Ido> ah ha
[10:33] <nutshell42> Daisuke_Ido: the installer works fine
[10:33] <Daisuke_Ido> i see :)
[10:34] <hitmanWilly> arthur_kalm, did you upgrade or fresh install
[10:34] <arthur_kalm> Daisuke_Ido: no I think it does :P
[10:34] <arthur_kalm> hitmanWilly: fresh
[10:34] <Daisuke_Ido> nutshell42: oh, i know it works, and works great
[10:34] <arthur_kalm> nutshell42: I forgot :P I'll give it a try in a sec
[10:34] <bolbit> Hi all,
[10:34] <bolbit> i want to test compiz under KDE.
[10:34] <bolbit> but how do i start compiz
[10:34] <hitmanWilly> hmm, the installer ones conflict with the official pkgs, but i guess that's not the prob then...
[10:34] <nutshell42> =)
[10:35] <arthur_kalm> Daisuke_Ido: it's funny, for some reason the default Ubuntu suggested package is nvidia-glx not nvidia-glx-new, while the kernel module requires nvidia-glx-new :P
[10:35] <Daisuke_Ido> and PROBABLY won't be as big a deal now that the fesity kernel's stabilized.  using the installer from nvidia's site while running the beta actually made me scream with frustration when i had to recompile the kernel module every other day
[10:35] <hitmanWilly> lol
[10:35] <arthur_kalm> Daisuke_Ido: hehe that's why I wait for the official release ;)
[10:35] <kalorin> man, video drivers in general under *ubuntu is a pain
[10:35] <kalorin> from what I've found with my ATI
[10:35] <arthur_kalm> Daisuke_Ido: but thanx to people liek you who test it :P
[10:35] <Daisuke_Ido> arthur_kalm: i'm using the nvidia-glx in feisty (which is 96something), and works great
[10:36] <kalorin> granted ATI doesn't have a great reputation
[10:36] <hitmanWilly> well, ati under nix is a pita, period
[10:36] <arthur_kalm> Daisuke_Ido: 8800 GTS requires the latest drivers
[10:36] <Daisuke_Ido> kalorin: ati hates their customers, nvidia's much better
[10:36] <kalorin> heh
[10:36] <Daisuke_Ido> arthur_kalm: true
[10:36] <kalorin> someday I'll get an nvidia care
[10:36] <kalorin> card
[10:36] <kalorin> but even my quadra at work is a PITA to get working
[10:36] <arthur_kalm> kalorin: really? my laptop with an x1400 works great
[10:36] <Daisuke_Ido> nvidia's still not perfect though.  if they open source their drivers, i'm all over that
[10:36] <Rogue> guys thanks for the help I may see you again
[10:36] <Dumahen> how can i reach the shared files on network by consol
[10:37] <arthur_kalm> ok i'll give it a try guys
[10:37] <Daisuke_Ido> Rogue: i have no clue who you are, but have fun!
[10:37] <kalorin> keep getting this deal where it boots up, runs fine, then if you restart the xserver or log out to a command line, it errors trying to go back in because of a kernel module mismatch
[10:37] <kalorin> it's bizarre
[10:37] <stefan__> I do not have sound on my laptop
[10:37] <stefan__> any ideas?
[10:37] <arthur_kalm> brb
[10:37] <Daisuke_Ido> check the volume?
[10:37] <Daisuke_Ido> ...sorry
[10:37] <stefan__> 100%
[10:37] <Daisuke_Ido> start from simple problems first :)
[10:37] <kalorin> arthur, I'm running dual head on one card
[10:37] <Dumahen> ok how can i reach the network on konsol ?
[10:37] <stefan__> ok
[10:38] <kalorin> Dumahen: that question does not compute, konsol is not a network application
[10:38] <Daisuke_Ido> i actually ahve no idea, the laptop i own is so old it actually has a manual volume knob
[10:38] <kalorin> Dumahen: do you mean via some service like ftp or http?
[10:38] <stefan__> ok
[10:39] <stefan__> kalorin: volume
[10:39] <Dumahen> no there r some files on my laptop and i need them on konsol but i cant reach them on konsol :(
[10:39] <stefan__> kalorin: sound
[10:39] <stefan__> !sound
[10:39] <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
[10:39] <stefan__> ok
[10:39] <stefan__> great!
[10:39] <stefan__> ty ubotu
[10:39] <stefan__> :)
[10:39] <Dumahen> kalorin: ??
[10:40] <kalorin> Dumahen: are you running konsole on the laptop?
[10:40] <Dumahen> my desktop is linux and laptop is winxp
[10:41] <acetoxy> Is it just me, or is SSH extremley slow in feisty?
[10:41] <kalorin> Dumahen: ok, so you need to make a samba connection either from the laptop to the desktop or from the desktop to the laptop
[10:41] <kalorin> are they shared on the laptop?
[10:41] <Dumahen> !samba
[10:41] <ubotu> samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[10:41] <Dumahen> thnx kalorin
[10:41] <kalorin> if so you should be able to use the smbclient, but if your'e running kubutnu you can likely just use the littel default dropdown for remote places
[10:41] <Iwonder|too> openssh windows is cool to allow scp trnsfers from windows to linux
[10:42] <kalorin> and browse to it
[10:42] <thefirstdude> so I haev a program.deb file, how to install?
[10:42] <kalorin> Iwonder|too: another possibility
[10:42] <kalorin> dpkg
[10:42] <hitmanWilly> thefirstdude, sudo dpkg -i <deb file name>
[10:43] <acetoxy> It takes about 5 seconds to login
[10:43] <arthur_kalm> :(
[10:43] <Sheazsche> why is google earth automatically in Ubuntu's repos, but not kubuntu's? what is going on?
[10:43] <vbgunz> I no longer /dev/hda1 ... how do I find it?
[10:44] <vbgunz> I mean what ever the new name is?
[10:44] <wolferine> vb cd /dev/hda1
[10:44] <hitmanWilly> vbgunz, its under sda now
[10:44] <wolferine> oh, cd /media/hda1 ?
[10:44] <vbgunz> sda?
[10:44] <wolferine> or sda
[10:44] <vbgunz> ok
[10:44] <arthur_kalm> OK so I'm trying the official nVidia drivers, and for some reason it's complaining that the kernel modules are not the same version as the X modules o-O
[10:44] <vbgunz> I'll check
[10:44] <hitmanWilly> vbgunz, the new kernel reads EVERYTHING as sd
[10:44] <arthur_kalm> but when I was using nvidia-glx-new (same version as the latest nVidia one), that wasn't the complaint
[10:44] <arthur_kalm> huh?
[10:45] <vbgunz> hmm, I do not have /dev/sd (tab) :(
[10:45] <Sheazsche> why is google earth automatically in Ubuntu's repos, but not kubuntu's? what is going on?
[10:45] <Daisuke_Ido> arthur_kalm: that happens, you'll have to compile a new kernel module (the installer does it)
[10:45] <arthur_kalm> Daisuke_Ido: it did..
[10:45] <arthur_kalm> Daisuke_Ido: but it seems to have not registered it?
[10:46] <arthur_kalm> ii  nvidia-kernel-common                       20051028+1ubuntu7
[10:46] <arthur_kalm> that's what I have
[10:46] <arthur_kalm> if I try to remove it I get a bunch of broken dependencies...
[10:46] <Daisuke_Ido> arthur_kalm: you're installing via nvidia's installer?
[10:46] <ubuntu> hello i added a share folder in vmare where can i find it back in kubuntu?
[10:46] <arthur_kalm> Daisuke_Ido: yes
[10:47] <arthur_kalm> Sheazsche: why don't you just use the Ubuntu repos then?
[10:47] <Daisuke_Ido> definitely weird
[10:47] <arthur_kalm> Daisuke_Ido: yeah :(
[10:47] <arthur_kalm> so I'm not sure if I should remove nvidia-kernel-common
[10:47] <arthur_kalm> it says
[10:47] <arthur_kalm> Remove the following packages:
[10:47] <arthur_kalm> linux-generic
[10:47] <arthur_kalm> linux-restricted-modules-2.6.20-15-generic
[10:47] <arthur_kalm> linux-restricted-modules-generic
[10:47] <Daisuke_Ido> whoa, no
[10:47] <arthur_kalm> :P
[10:47] <arthur_kalm> yeah
[10:48] <lupul> hi there. can i do anything to show in gaim which music i'm listening to?
[10:48] <lupul> wothout typing it of course :D
[10:48] <lupul> *without
[10:48] <raz> Anyone know why a aptitude dist-upgrade would tell me that 66 packages I have are unused and need to be removed?
[10:48] <arthur_kalm> lupul: not sure about gaim but I know Kopete has such a plugin
[10:49] <raz> er, 55. Same principle, though
[10:49] <lupul> yes i know
[10:49] <Daisuke_Ido> raz: because they're not used anymore
[10:49] <fdoving> raz: because they were installed as dependecies to other packages.
[10:49] <raz> Daisuke_Ido:  they are
[10:49] <lupul> but kopete dies suddently after starting
[10:49] <Daisuke_Ido> either replaced, or renamed
[10:49] <Daisuke_Ido> fdoving's note too
[10:49] <raz> well, how can I find out what they're missing?
[10:49] <lupul> and it doesn't show pictures of my buddies
[10:49] <arthur_kalm> lupul: oh...
[10:49] <raz> I think something may have been damaged
[10:49] <Daisuke_Ido> raz: apt is pretty good about that
[10:50] <raz> well, I'm not familiar with all the commands yet
[10:50] <arthur_kalm> lupul: which protocol?
[10:50] <Daisuke_Ido> if it says it's safe to remove them, chances are it's safe to remove them
[10:50] <lupul> yahoo
[10:50] <raz> I do not want to remove them
[10:50] <raz> because I use them
[10:50] <raz> Like I said, something is damaged
[10:50] <arthur_kalm> lupul: oh... hmm not sure :( sorry
[10:50] <fdoving> raz: then you can tag them as not autoinstalled.
[10:50] <raz> how can I repair whatever dependencies they need?
[10:50] <lupul> thanks anyway
[10:50] <kalorin> kopete >>>
[10:50] <fdoving> raz: check out 'apt-mark'
[10:50] <lupul> sudo apt-get install -f
[10:51] <arthur_kalm> bah, so does anyone know how I can get around this difference in versions?
[10:51] <fdoving> raz: 'sudo apt-mark unmarkauto <list of packages you want to keep>'
[10:51] <raz> getting apt errors
[10:51] <Sheazsche> for some reason i always have to open adept manager twice because it does not ask me for a password the first time... wtf?
[10:51] <raz> debconf: DbDriver "config": /var/cache/debconf/config.dat is locked by another process: Resource temporarily unavailable
[10:51] <arthur_kalm> stupid kernel modules never complained when I used nvidia-glx-nwe
[10:51] <arthur_kalm> *new
[10:51] <raz> I think that an install got killed halfway through or something and damaged the script placeholders and a package
[10:52] <kalorin> raz, got a backup
[10:52] <kalorin> ?
[10:52] <raz> er, of my entire drive?
[10:52] <raz> no
[10:52] <kalorin> seems like it should do a backup every time before it does any installs
[10:52] <kalorin> and then it can be rolled back if the operation doesn't successfully complete
[10:52] <pnutbttr> hello, i cant get adept to start, it says its beeing used already, i dont see anything in the process

[10:54] <kalorin> how about !apt-crash
[10:54] <Sheazsche> for some reason i always have to open adept manager twice because it does not ask me for a password the first time... wtf?

[10:54] <dog> Hi !
[10:54] <kalorin> sup dog!
[10:55] <kalorin> (always wanted to say that)
[10:55] <Black_Cat> dog, miaow.
[10:55] <dog> How are you   ??
[10:57] <sstchur> I just got a new monitor, but I"m having trouble figuring out how to tell KDE to up the resolution.  I'm in monitor and display settings, but it doens't list the resolution I want
[10:57] <Sheazsche> hey for some reason in debian based distros i only get 800 fps with intel 915gm and the i810 driver, but with mandriva i get 1300fps in glxgears. ANy idea why?
[10:58] <stefan__> I get a Not enabled in config for the sound driver in SOund Kinfo center
[10:58] <stefan__> where do I find config?
[10:58] <stefan__> to enable the driver?
[10:59] <darkstaown> hey :o
[10:59] <intelikey> !sound | stefan__
[10:59] <ubotu> stefan__: 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
[10:59] <calamari> hi
[10:59] <intelikey> hey hey i spelled one right.
[10:59] <darkstaown> Anyone has an idea of an app that could run some win32 softwares like ventrilo^
[11:00] <Cugel> dark: wine
[11:00] <darkstaown> I heard it wasnt free
[11:00] <darkstaown> It is^
[11:00] <darkstaown> Goddamn questionmark isnt working :)
[11:00] <calamari> I cannot print to my printer from Firefox, only to PostScript/default.  Is anyone able to print from FireFox?  What did you do to get it working?
[11:00] <stefan__> the damn page is not loading
[11:00] <stefan__> oh well
[11:00] <stefan__> let me look
[11:00] <stefan__> thanks intelikey!
[11:01] <compilerwriter> Is it just me or am I really experiencing a massive kde slowdown since the upgrade?
[11:01] <pnutbttr> i am using this solution "sudo fuser -vki /var/lib/dpkg/lock;sudo dpkg --configure -a" and now all the downloads adept made today for the upgrade are gone, interesting....
[11:02] <intelikey> compilerwriter nah it's gendii's imagenation
[11:02] <compilerwriter> gendii's imagination?
[11:03] <Toyd> Hello
[11:03] <intelikey> :)
[11:03] <Toyd> may i ask a question
[11:03] <Toyd> how do i run KsysGuard and Konversation from Konsole?
[11:03] <Toyd> what are the proper commands
[11:03] <Toyd> i need it for putty
[11:03] <Sheazsche> just type ksysguard
[11:03] <Sheazsche> it launches
[11:03] <JohnFlux> Toyd: ksysguard   and konversation
[11:04] <Toyd> i did didnt work
[11:04] <Sheazsche> oh
[11:04] <Toyd> amarokapp works for amarok
[11:04] <sstchur> ANyone know why I can't get into administrator mode anymore?  In KDE System Systems, I click the Administrator mode button, and the window lights up with a red border, but it doesn't prompt me for a password anymore
[11:04] <JohnFlux> Toyd: what didn't work :-)
[11:04] <Toyd> should i append app to it?
[11:04] <calamari> got it!  I guess it wasn't selected as the default printer
[11:04] <Toyd> i tried your suggestions already
[11:04] <Toyd> and it failed
[11:04] <calamari> there was no default at all.. which is kinda weird
[11:04] <JohnFlux> Toyd: how did it fail
[11:04] <intelikey> Toyd what error message ?
[11:04] <JohnFlux> Toyd: what's the error
[11:04] <Toyd> i got a bash
[11:05] <intelikey> Toyd what error message ?
[11:05] <compilerwriter> !ask Toyd
[11:05] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ask toyd - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:05] <Toyd> -bash: KSysGuard: command not found
[11:05] <compilerwriter> !ask | Toyd
[11:05] <ubotu> Toyd: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[11:05] <JohnFlux> Toyd: I said type  ksysguard
[11:05] <Toyd> small letters
[11:05] <JohnFlux> Toyd: not KSysGuard
[11:06] <kalorin> toyd, you likely have to tell ssh to forward X packets and run an xserver on your end and allow the client apps to display to the local box
[11:06] <Toyd> why small letters
[11:06] <CVirus> what does sudo fuser -vki /var/lib/dpkg/lock do ?
[11:06] <Toyd> it shouldnt matter
[11:06] <Toyd> ok sorry
[11:06] <JohnFlux> Toyd: on unix it matters
[11:06] <JohnFlux> Toyd: linux = unix
[11:06] <kikkoman> Hello, I've been trying to compile the UnrealIRCd, and when I do that, it says the gcc compiler cannot create executables. How am I to fix this?
[11:06] <intelikey> Toyd shouldn't matter ?   hah  windows users are all alike.
[11:06] <gdiebel> Sheazsche: are resolution/bit depth the same?
[11:06] <Sheazsche> yes
[11:06] <fdoving> CVirus: checks what's using /var/lib/dpkg/lock , show you what it its, then ask you to kill it or not.
[11:06] <kalorin> intelikey: heh
[11:07] <louieb39c> Hello does anyone know what is on the Kubuntu DVD vs the CD?
[11:07] <Toyd> intelikey,  on the far side of my cube 2x 90 degrees spins left or right kubuntu is running
[11:07] <CVirus> fdoving: I rm -rf /var/lib/dpkg/lock to remove the lock ... is it safe ?
[11:07] <Russel> hiho
[11:07] <Toyd> so i am not just a windows user
[11:07] <fdoving> louieb39c: more programs. more or less.
[11:07] <kikkoman> The Kubuntu DVD has the Live version and the text version, I believe
[11:07] <kikkoman> But not certain >.>;
[11:07] <Toyd> kikkoman,  i know you
[11:07] <louieb39c> Ah thanks. I couldn't find that on the main site...
[11:07] <kalorin> JohnFlux: that's not rude, he's right, they don't have options or case sensitivity there, and the desktops all look the same
[11:07] <intelikey> Toyd big wooopeeee
[11:07] <Toyd> i am Fuji-san
[11:07] <Russel> i have a workstation with feisty and if i click on shutdown and suspend only the screen is locked, what could be wrong?
[11:07] <Toyd> ;p
[11:07] <kikkoman> :O
[11:07] <ober0ne> anybody really good with the terminal?
[11:07] <kalorin> JohnFlux: they are all alike, like clones
[11:07] <fdoving> CVirus: you'll get some confused prorgrams. so i don't recommend it.
[11:07] <Toyd> i forgot how i know you
[11:08] <Toyd> kikkoman,
[11:08] <Toyd> are you in aar also on rizon?
[11:08] <sound_fx> I just upgraded to feisty, and my screen refresh does not appear to be correct, what should I do?
[11:08] <kikkoman> Not at the moment
[11:08] <Toyd> macspeak?
[11:08] <compilerwriter> toyd in *nix the entire system is case sensitive.  You can have a file named fubar, Fubar, fubaR, fUbar, fuBar, and so on and they are all seperate files.
[11:08] <louieb39c> ask the question oberOne - don't ask to ask a question
[11:08] <JohnFlux> Toyd: they make soysauce
[11:08] <Toyd> oh ok
[11:08] <Toyd> lol
[11:08] <ober0ne> lol
[11:08] <kikkoman> >.>; How do I set permissions for the gcc compiler
[11:08] <kikkoman> It says it can't create executables
[11:08] <Toyd> compilerwriter,  thats to confusing for me i am just a winderz user heh ;p
[11:09] <fdoving> kikkoman: you need to install the 'build-essential' package.
[11:09] <Toyd> i use GNU apps on windows though
[11:09] <ober0ne> I'm stuck... I tried to graphically add a repository, but it won't accept it, says there's an error, and it won't let me open adept or edit sources.list manually
[11:09] <compilerwriter> JohnFlux now don't be so hare on intelikey.  He hasn't had his ration for the day.
[11:09] <intelikey> Toyd bottom line, in *nix every key is unique.  T != t != [left-alt] T != [right-alt] T   and so forth.
[11:09] <kikkoman> fdoving: sudo apt-get install build-essential ?
[11:09] <rich__> Hello, trying to upgrade Edgy->Feisty, followed instructions ("click next to close Adept package manager and start the kubuntu dist. upgrade tool") but nothing happens when I clicked Next. any help?
[11:09] <Toyd> intelikey,  gotcha thanks again
[11:09] <louieb39c> OberOne - error?
[11:09] <fdoving> kikkoman: yes, or find build-essential in adept.
[11:09] <ober0ne> erm... hold on I'll do it again so I can tell you exactly
[11:10] <kikkoman> fdoving: Ok, thanks
[11:10] <intelikey> for the sake of "sane typing" both shift keys are treeted the same.
[11:10] <kalorin> intelikey: heh
[11:10] <JohnFlux> Toyd: have you tried running  ksysguard  yet?
[11:10] <JohnFlux> kikkoman: what's the error specifically?
[11:10] <JohnFlux> kikkoman: yes
[11:10] <JohnFlux> intelikey:  and  t
[11:10] <JohnFlux> intelikey:  :-)
[11:10] <Toyd> yes it works thanks JohnFlux
[11:10] <kikkoman> error: gcc: c compiler cannot create executables
[11:10] <compilerwriter> intelikey unless you happened to have remapped them for some reason.
[11:10] <xst> After upgrading to feisty the sound on my audiophile 2496 sound card is in slow motion. What to do?
[11:10] <Toyd> i am running it via putty and xming
[11:11] <intelikey> kalorin but they do send different code when pressed...
[11:11] <kikkoman> Something to that extent >.>;
[11:11] <intelikey> compilerwriter yes
[11:11] <ober0ne> in the terminal, it says: E: type 'ftp://ftp.videolan.org/pub/videolan/ubuntu' is not known on line 1 in sources list
[11:11] <kalorin> xst, relax and slow down
[11:11] <JohnFlux> kikkoman: did you install build-essential?
[11:11] <kalorin> xst it's trying to tell you something :)
[11:11] <kikkoman> JohnFlux: Not yet, but I'm doing that as we speak
[11:11] <Toyd> kikkoman,  did you built a hackintosh?
[11:11] <xst> Damn, I knew it :-)
[11:11] <Toyd> :-0
[11:11] <Kikkoman> what
[11:11] <xst> But besides that - any ideas?
[11:11] <Toyd> lol nvm
[11:11] <Kikkoman> o_O
[11:11] <Toyd> jk
[11:11] <Toyd> ;p
[11:11] <Toyd> (>".)>
[11:11] <kalorin> xst, hrms...
[11:11] <louieb39c> give me one sec uber
[11:12] <ober0ne> sure
[11:12] <JohnFlux> xst: tried google?
[11:12] <kalorin> xst, sound is one of those things that I don't play iwth much, it just works for me
[11:12] <kalorin> never have to fix that which doesn't break
[11:12] <kalorin> sounds like an interupt issue maybe?
[11:12] <compilerwriter> Good for  you toyd I always login to my 'healess' *nix box via xming and putty.
[11:12] <kalorin> is your whole system slower?
[11:12] <kalorin> or just sound
[11:12] <ober0ne> I know I can edit the sources list in terminal, but using Kate, I need root permission
[11:12] <louieb39c> http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Feisty#How_to_add_extra_repositories
[11:12] <ober0ne> but I don't know how to edit it in termnial
[11:13] <ober0ne> well, the problem now is how to remove that
[11:13] <louieb39c> that should help
[11:13] <kalorin> ober0ne: sudo kate <filename?
[11:13] <ober0ne> yeh? that works?
[11:13] <compilerwriter> Now could someone please tell me why the devil my screen just froze and my background picture just dissappeared?
[11:13] <kalorin> if X is running it will
[11:13] <JohnFlux> ober0ne: press alt-f2   then type  kdesu  kate
[11:13] <ober0ne> x... I'm a noob
[11:13] <compilerwriter> Toyd have you gotten xming to cooperate with ssh?
[11:13] <intelikey> xst did you have to use special drivers for the sound card ?
[11:13] <compilerwriter> Have you enabled ssh on your computers x-server.
[11:13] <kalorin> ok laters folks
[11:14] <louieb39c> well noobs are welcome here as long as they are willing to learn
[11:14] <ober0ne> lol, always willing to learn
[11:14] <Toyd> dont know compilerwriter  i think so its working
[11:14] <ober0ne> I finally got fed up with windows after vista ate my system
[11:14] <xst> intelikey: ICE1712 I think it is
[11:14] <Toyd> i get amarok in an aero window
[11:14] <Toyd> on vista
[11:15] <Toyd> thats what i wanted lol
[11:15] <ober0ne> lol
[11:15] <xst> intelikey: But it worked perfectly in edgy
[11:15] <louieb39c> HAHA I am only 16 and I have made LOTS of money off of fed up Vista users..End of MS's reign?
[11:15] <Toyd> :p
[11:15] <ober0ne> I hated vista... someone once said that if you put sparkles on a turd, it's still just a piece of crap
[11:15] <Toyd> noway dude
[11:15] <Toyd> vista has bling bling
[11:15] <louieb39c> HAHA I like that
[11:15] <intelikey> xst was just wondering,  cause if you had to install a driver  you will probably have to rebuild it for the newer kernel
[11:15] <Toyd> directx 10 is the only reason why i am using vista even though its non-existing atm
[11:16] <Toyd> crysis will be great
[11:16] <louieb39c> Ubuntu Alfa tests are more stable than VIsta
[11:16] <ober0ne> ok, so I tried the kdesu, but it says it can't open it
[11:16] <louieb39c> did you try that kink?
[11:16] <ober0ne> now it wants to open it under samba
[11:16] <louieb39c> link*
[11:16] <gly> Does anyone know where I could find any of the feisty herd-releases?
[11:16] <wsjunior> how do i open that katapult configuration window?
[11:17] <romale> hi everybody!
[11:17] <Toyd> lol amarok is a cpu eater
[11:17] <Toyd> damn
[11:17] <louieb39c> Holy I didn't expect a newly released torrent to Kubuntu would be downloading at 5Kbps
[11:17] <romale> i'm having trouble upgrading edy to feisty
[11:18] <louieb39c> sudo apt-get dist-upgrade?
[11:18] <romale> when i update using adept, a window invite me to upgrade
[11:18] <romale> i click on next, next then finish
[11:18] <ober0ne> *sigh* I love kubuntu, but it's being quite annoying
[11:18] <romale> then *NOTHING*
[11:19] <romale> adept should have be closed, and i think the upgrade should have start
[11:19] <louieb39c> Romale try sudo apt-get update
[11:19] <louieb39c> sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[11:19] <wizar> schoenen guten abend
[11:20] <rich__> romale: same here, I'm trying clicking the Full Upgrade button, seems to be doing the right thing.
[11:20] <romale> what about the graphical dist-upgrade tool ?
[11:20] <PandyMx> can somebody tell me how should i open a zip file please?
[11:20] <ober0ne> ha! louie, I love you
[11:20] <romale> is there a bug or something?
[11:20] <louieb39c> eh the way I see it is, when all else fails..do it the old fashioned way
[11:20] <louieb39c> lol why?
[11:20] <compilerwriter> Toyd are the machines you are using on the same network?
[11:20] <louieb39c> Ober - all good?
[11:20] <intelikey> xst sound (alsa or oss) is kernel side code  not userland applications   arts (the default kde sound engine) is a userland app that simply facilitates gongruent sounds on the alsa device.    so you can test in a console (not an X terminal, real tty) and see if alsa is at fault, if so kernel module; and or module args.    if sound works from the console then it's arts; work on kde's sound system setting
[11:21] <ober0ne> well, I have a problem with attention to detail... if only I had read just a little further, I would have found the solution
[11:21] <ober0ne> :p
[11:21] <Black_Cat> PandyMx, sudo apt-get install unzip
[11:21] <Toyd> compilerwriter, no
[11:21] <wolferine> anyone experienced with proftpd, I am trying to share a folder within my FTP root folder
[11:21] <Toyd> compilerwriter,  i am doing it all on the same pc
[11:21] <Toyd> lmao
[11:21] <Toyd> ;/
[11:21] <romale> is running "update" and "upgrade" with apt enough to update to feisty?
[11:21] <Toyd> lubuntu is running in vmware
[11:21] <Toyd> kubuntu*
[11:21] <compilerwriter> I see.
[11:21] <ober0ne> ack... pc speaker keeps beeping
[11:21] <Toyd> lol
[11:22] <louieb39c> Romale I think you want dist-upgrade
[11:22] <bigdad1e> is there a curtain verson of kubuntu for laptops?
[11:22] <Toyd> compilerwriter,  with 2 pcs it would be better
[11:22] <thefirstdude> yoyu know what sucks, I can't get any packages...
[11:22] <intelikey> bigdad1e no
[11:22] <compilerwriter> Much better.
[11:22] <Toyd> i know
[11:22] <thefirstdude> doe anyone know of alternative repositories that I can use?
[11:22] <bigdad1e> ok just making sure thanks
[11:22] <compilerwriter> It would be much better toyd with two seperate pcs.
[11:22] <Toyd> yeah
[11:23] <compilerwriter> When you get that kind of setup don't buy a kvm switch.
[11:23] <Toyd> i was just testing to see if it'd work
[11:23] <Toyd> first
[11:23] <Toyd> lol
[11:23] <compilerwriter> You can use xming and XDMCP for that.
[11:23] <Toyd> ok
[11:23] <intelikey> ober0ne sounds like "upstart" trying to do something wrongly.
[11:23] <gly> If someone around here happens to have the amd64 iso of feisty herd-4 somewhere I'd be _very_ happy if I could get a copy.
[11:23] <romale> ok, i'm trying "apt-get dist-upgrade"
[11:23] <louieb39c> sudo
[11:24] <louieb39c> sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

[11:24] <blueyed> (I don't have it, sorry)
[11:24] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about desktop effects - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:24] <CVirus> !beryl
[11:24] <ubotu> Beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. See http://forum.beryl-project.org/ - Help in #ubuntu-effects
[11:24] <gly> blueyed: The kernel in later versions won't boot on my laptop :(
[11:25] <xst> intelikey: When playing with aplay it says: <mp3-name> Unsigned 8 bit, Rate 8000 Hz, Mono    - this seems quite wrong
[11:25] <gly> and the images has disappeared from the ubuntu.com and mirrors
[11:25] <blueyed> gly: herd 4 is quite old, isn't it? How does it not boot? Have you filed a bug at launchpad.net?
[11:25] <ober0ne> louie, ever heard of automatix?
[11:25] <intelikey> xst never test sound with propritary formats  or even compressed free formats
[11:25] <louieb39c> oper - love it
[11:25] <ober0ne> yeah
[11:25] <louieb39c> fantastic app
[11:26] <wsjunior> Katapult isnt in systray by default, how can i configure it?
[11:26] <ober0ne> so what exactly does it do?
[11:26] <wsjunior> I would like to open its configuration window..
[11:26] <wolferine> anyone experienced with proftpd, I am trying to share a folder within my FTP root folder
[11:26] <intelikey> xst find an .au   or even a .wav is you must.
[11:26] <ober0ne> I know people that use linux everyday, and they tell me to use automatix, but won't tell me what it does
[11:26] <louieb39c> its a GUI based script that allows you to pick things like mp3 codecs and flash out of a list and it installs them for you
[11:26] <ober0ne> :o
[11:26] <ober0ne> LOVE THAT!
[11:26] <louieb39c> very simple
[11:26] <louieb39c> yea I think it should be for all distros
[11:27] <ober0ne> so basically it changes the you over from adept?
[11:27] <JohnFlux> louieb39c: it also breaks things :-)
[11:27] <intelikey> !automatix | ober0ne
[11:27] <ubotu> ober0ne: 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
[11:27] <JohnFlux> louieb39c: it should me mostly unneeded now
[11:27] <louieb39c> I have never experienced that

[11:27] <whytheam> Does anyone know how to mount a harddrive in 7.4
[11:27] <JohnFlux> louieb39c: ^^
[11:28] <CVirus> Isn't there a desktop effects manager in kubuntu as the one shipped with ubuntu ?
[11:28] <intelikey> whytheam why would mounting be different in 7.4 ?
[11:28] <sstchur> Help!  I got a new monitor, but I can't for the life of me, get KDE to bump the resolution up to what the monitor is capable of
[11:28] <ubuntu> wow
[11:28] <ober0ne> lol, well I just installed kubuntu today (again), and don't have anything really important on it yet
[11:28] <wolferine> whytheam, mount?
[11:28] <ubuntu> konversation in windows aero :p
[11:28] <ubuntu> kewl
[11:28] <ober0ne> so if it screws it up, I'll reinstall
[11:28] <blueyed> sstchur: maybe you need to adjust /etc/X11/xorg.conf and add the resolutions there.
[11:29] <louieb39c> well oper I have been using it for some time with no issues
[11:29] <sstchur> blueyed: I tried that... I made things worse... now I"m ay 800x600
[11:29] <arthur_kalm> hey umm does anyone know how to remove the official nVidia driver. I downloaded it and installed it on my system but I have no idea how to remove it now... I want to try a work around with the ubuntu drivers but I think I should remove the nvidia ones first...
[11:29] <louieb39c> I really wish there was VIrtualbox for x64 :(
[11:29] <sstchur> blueyed: do you know what happened to xorgconfig?  I swear I used to run something like that where I could specify resolutions and what not
[11:29] <bobbicat> i'm looking for general advice for the new feisty release
[11:29] <ober0ne> but, if automatix works, (and I know this issue has been beaten to death) I can get my mp3 and xvid codecs, right?
[11:29] <wolferine> arthur_kalm, why do you want to remove it?
[11:29] <whytheam> I just updated today and the 80 gig I had is gone missing
[11:29] <dennister> hey all...having some trouble with copying large files...process keeps quitting unexpectedly, and I don't know what to troubleshoot?
[11:30] <JohnFlux> sstchur: you could try backing up the file, then do:  dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[11:30] <louieb39c> yes ober
[11:30] <ober0ne> ^_^
[11:30] <JohnFlux> sstchur: backing up /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[11:30] <CVirus> Isn't there a desktop effects manager in kubuntu as the one shipped with ubuntu ?
[11:30] <ober0ne> life is very, very good right now
[11:30] <intelikey> sstchur ubuntu has never used xorgconfig
[11:30] <louieb39c> ober don't say that until things are installed!
[11:30] <JohnFlux> CVirus: you can use the same manager
[11:30] <ober0ne> now, if automatix DOESN'T work, what else can I try? I'm horrible with terminal
[11:30] <bobbicat> can i use the live cd to upgrade edgy 6.10 to feisty 7.04?
[11:30] <gly> blueyed: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.20/+bug/107417
[11:30] <sstchur> intelikey: ok...i'm looking at the FixYourResolutionHowTo now
[11:30] <intelikey> sstchur it's always been dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[11:31] <arthur_kalm> wolferine: found how to uninstall it, --uninstall switch
[11:31] <louieb39c> that site I gave you - look at it - it helps a lot
[11:31] <ober0ne> yeh?
[11:31] <photon> CVirus: You have to download it from Adept Manager
[11:31] <arthur_kalm> and i want to uninstall it b/c I want to use the driver in the repo
[11:31] <ober0ne> I bookmarked it :p
[11:31] <wolferine> cool
[11:31] <CVirus> JohnFlux: photon: it depends on many packages related to gnome !
[11:31] <JohnFlux> CVirus: are you talking about beryl?
[11:32] <louieb39c> hopefully they will add some stuff to it since 7.04 is just out
[11:32] <bobbicat> i have a network don't want to update each pc over the net can i use live cd?
[11:32] <photon> Desktop Effects use Compiz
[11:32] <ober0ne> bloody helll... I'm using sudo apt-get update, and it's showing me updates I'm certain I already have
[11:32] <louieb39c> the other versions have a lot more material
[11:32] <ober0ne> is that common?
[11:32] <intelikey> let me take that back.   i came to ubuntu after warty wallowed  so i can speak for the first release, but form hoary on it has been
[11:32] <CVirus> JohnFlux: no .. about desktop-effects package
[11:32] <JohnFlux> ober0ne: maybe they updated since you last updated :-)
[11:32] <ober0ne> in half an hour?
[11:32] <louieb39c> lol
[11:32] <Daisuke_Ido> upDATE is just getting the package lists.
[11:32] <JohnFlux> ober0ne: :-)
[11:32] <louieb39c> hmn that's news to me
[11:33] <JohnFlux> ober0ne: oh, like Daisuke_Ido says, do you mean update or upgrade?
[11:33] <ober0ne> updates
[11:33] <Daisuke_Ido> which reminds me, i'm running the upgrade tool on the SO's lappy
[11:33] <intelikey> louieb39c add stuff to a release.... not likely
[11:33] <whytheam> It asks for the file system and I am a noob and really don't know waht to put. I used this guide http://www.smorgasbord.net/book/export/html/195
[11:33] <louieb39c> intelikey..?
[11:33] <bobbicat> will the new feisty live cd update an edgy installation?
[11:33] <louieb39c> I was referring to a blog for new users
[11:34] <ober0ne> hey, general question - I'm on edgy, ordered my feisty cd yesterday... what do you guys think of it?
[11:34] <Daisuke_Ido> live cd no
[11:34] <Daisuke_Ido> alternate cd yes
[11:34] <Daisuke_Ido> ober0ne: lovin it
[11:34] <CVirus> JohnFlux: photon: in ubuntu, I can enable desktop effects with one click from the desktop effects manager ... I want the same in kubuntu
[11:34] <louieb39c> same here
[11:34] <ober0ne> what's different?
[11:34] <louieb39c> better driver support than vista :-P
[11:34] <ober0ne> that's not hard!
[11:34] <JohnFlux> CVirus: so install the gnome thing :-)
[11:34] <Daisuke_Ido> smaller memory footprint too
[11:34] <louieb39c> HAHHA
[11:35] <louieb39c> check out the change log
[11:35] <intelikey> CVirus i guess he told you...   :)
[11:35] <Daisuke_Ido> and if you want eye candy, it doesn't require even a THIRD of the resources vista does
[11:35] <JohnFlux> CVirus: kwin is better.  it's best to just wait for kde :-)
[11:35] <ober0ne> I have the XFX geforce 7600 series from nvidia, and bloody vista made it look integrated
[11:35] <JohnFlux> CVirus: kde4 i mean
[11:35] <ober0ne> it was sad
[11:35] <louieb39c> haha
[11:35] <Daisuke_Ido> wait half ayear or better for kde 4?
[11:35] <Daisuke_Ido> are you drunk or... just stoned?
[11:36] <dennister> ober0ne: that's the same video card i've got
[11:36] <who_> just stoned
[11:36] <louieb39c> I love how XP has been out for..5 years? and its JUST 'stable'? yes I use that word lightly
[11:36] <Daisuke_Ido> "oh noes, no eye candy until at least october!"
[11:36] <intelikey> Daisuke_Ido yeah why bother with it at all....
[11:36] <whytheam> what is my file system type?
[11:36] <ober0ne> dennister: love that card... geforce is GOD
[11:36] <dennister> i am just soooooo glad i decided long time ago to say 'no' to more of winblows
[11:36] <louieb39c> agreed
[11:36] <intelikey> whytheam mount
[11:36] <JohnFlux> i installed beryl, thought 'ooo pretty' then realised it wasn't like kwin, and turned it off
[11:36] <Daisuke_Ido> intelikey: if you like that sort of thing, it's perfectly usable now without waiting for a release that's still a twinkle on the horizon
[11:36] <ober0ne> yeah... microsod has gotten enough of my time
[11:36] <whytheam> it wont work
[11:36] <kaneknows> Is there a way to make grep do a find/replace?
[11:36] <dennister> yes, ober0ne, can't beat lifetime warramtu times 2
[11:36] <louieb39c> did you hear Michael dell uses an ubuntu system?
[11:37] <intelikey> Daisuke_Ido and if you don't why bother with any of it...
[11:37] <ober0ne> yeah
[11:37] <Daisuke_Ido> intelikey: true
[11:37] <intelikey> kaneknows no you want sed
[11:37] <dennister> in my books, that's putting your $ where ur mouth is: a real commitment to quality
[11:37] <nkoc_> Sysinfo for 'nkoc-ubuntu': Linux 2.6.20-15-generic running KDE 3.5.6, CPU: AMDAthlon643000+ at 1000 MHz (2007 bogomips), , RAM: 909/1011MB, 110 proc's, 57.54min up
[11:38] <ober0ne> ok, so I've pulled automatix down from the ethers... how do I use it now?
[11:38] <ober0ne> where would it install?
[11:38] <LjL> !automatix > ober0ne    (ober0ne, see the private message from Ubotu)
[11:38] <thefirstdude> is kubuntu pretty much based on python?
[11:38] <intelikey> kaneknows     sed 's/was/is now/g' file       example only
[11:38] <dennister> anyone have any idea why i can't seem to finish copying large files?
[11:38] <JohnFlux> kaneknows: sed -i -e 's/findword/replaceword/' file
[11:38] <Daisuke_Ido> well isn't that just lovely, bertha?  you figured out how to flash useless stats in an e-man-danglies competition!
[11:38] <LjL> thefirstdude: the kubuntu specific (i.e. made by kubuntu developers) software is, in good part
[11:38] <JohnFlux> intelikey: you need -i and -e
[11:38] <ober0ne> kk, thanks Ljl
[11:38] <louieb39c> http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Feisty#Automatix2
[11:38] <intelikey> JohnFlux no
[11:39] <kaneknows> hrm thanks.
[11:39] <Daisuke_Ido> automatix has been rendered almost completely useless
[11:39] <Daisuke_Ido> thank god
[11:39] <intelikey> JohnFlux what i wrote will work.   you can expand it with -i and -e
[11:39] <Daisuke_Ido> the sooner it stops existing, the happier i will be
[11:39] <dennister> intelikey: ? how bout one of my fav helpers?
[11:39] <louieb39c> I don't understand daisuke
[11:39] <JohnFlux> hmm, it seems -e  is optional
[11:39] <intelikey> dennister ?
[11:40] <Daisuke_Ido> louieb39c: automatix is crap
[11:40] <louieb39c> what issues have you had?
[11:40] <ober0ne> so ok... if you don't like automatix, what else can I do? I did mention earlier that I suck in the terminal
[11:40] <dennister> yep...:-) for some reason i can't completely finish copying large files...process quits unexpectedly
[11:40] <JohnFlux> ober0ne: what are you trying to do ?
[11:40] <LjL> ober0ne: what do you *need* to do?
[11:40] <Daisuke_Ido> forgive the language, but it makes me want to rip peoples' souls out with an olive fork and sacrifice them to the dark lord in exchange for ridding the world of that piece of....
[11:40] <intelikey> dennister 2g restriction on vfat ?
[11:40] <ober0ne> I would love to have my mp3 and xvid codecs and such
[11:40] <Daisuke_Ido> ober0ne: using feisty?
[11:40] <louieb39c> daisuke I think that is pretty bias - it works perfect for me
[11:40] <LjL> ober0ne: are you on feisty?
[11:40] <dennister> ahhh...maybe
[11:40] <ober0ne> sadly no, not yest
[11:41] <ober0ne> yet*
[11:41] <LjL> !mp3 > ober0ne    (ober0ne, see the private message from Ubotu)
[11:41] <intelikey> dennister i need more info.     be concise
[11:41] <Daisuke_Ido> !automatix
[11:41] <nick_> ober0ne: automatix2 does the job
[11:41] <ubotu> 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
[11:41] <Daisuke_Ido> louieb39c: this is the OFFICIAL word on automatix
[11:41] <LjL> !automatix > nick_    (nick_, see the private message from Ubotu)
[11:41] <ober0ne> the only reason I kept microsod around so long was for those codecs and the ease of installation
[11:41] <Daisuke_Ido> if you use it, don't come crying when things break, because they will.
[11:41] <dennister> k...trying to copy large 5.4 g files from mythtv to a vfat drive...only will copy 4.0 g
[11:41] <whytheam> nothing is working
[11:41] <LjL> ober0ne, i don't think xvid requires anything very special, though i might be mistaken - doesn't VLC read them fine?
[11:41] <ober0ne> yes
[11:42] <ober0ne> but apparently I can't get vlc
[11:42] <Daisuke_Ido> LjL: vlc <3
[11:42] <LjL> ober0ne: as for MP3, a bit of terminal might be needed, but you really just need to copy&paste what's in the guide
[11:42] <ober0ne> it's what I used on windows
[11:42] <dennister> message from copying kioslave, i believe, 'process quit unexpedly"
[11:42] <LjL> ober0ne: how so?
[11:42] <JohnFlux> dennister: fat32 doesn't support files larger than 4GB
[11:42] <Daisuke_Ido> ober0ne: enable universe, sudo apt-get install vlc
[11:42] <louieb39c> ober I would make your own opinion - try it - and either love it or hate it
[11:42] <ober0ne> enable universe...
[11:42] <ober0ne> ok
[11:42] <ober0ne> umm
[11:42] <intelikey> dennister yeah vfat can only handle < 2g    you can break the file into chuncks and rejoin it later on something else if that helps
[11:42] <dennister> that's right...damn...i forgot
[11:42] <LjL> !universe > ober0ne    (ober0ne, see the private message from Ubotu)
[11:42] <ober0ne> I'm loving that ubotu
[11:42] <dennister> and that's why these mythtv files are on an xfs partition
[11:43] <Daisuke_Ido> i'm gonna go have a smoke, i'm getting a little too cynical in here right now :)
[11:43] <kikkoman> Say #kubuntu, how do I open ports? I need to open 7000, 8000, and 50000
[11:43] <intelikey> dennister yep
[11:43] <LjL> ober0ne: i suggest that you simply let source-o-matic, a very handy site, create a new /etc/apt/sources.list for you (which is the file that lists the places software is downloaded from)
[11:43] <dennister> any suggestions for a chunk-breaker?
[11:43] <LjL> ober0ne: first, hit Alt+F2, and type  gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[11:43] <wiglaf> hello everyone...
[11:43] <LjL> ober0ne: then erase the contents, and paste the stuff you obtain from source-o-matic. make sure you tick universe and multiverse in there, as well as seveas
[11:43] <LjL> !source-o-matic > ober0ne    (ober0ne, see the private message from Ubotu)
[11:44] <wiglaf> any info on why my apt-get update is going painfully slow and not able to hit everything (i'm trying to upgrade to Feisty)
[11:44] <Daisuke_Ido> LjL: there's a chance he won't have gedit (using kubuntu)
[11:44] <LjL> ober0ne: then save the file, and you're almost done. just type  sudo apt-get update  to sync with the new list, and then you can do  sudo apt-get install vlc  (or the same thing from the graphical Adept interface)
[11:44] <LjL> Daisuke_Ido: gah
[11:44] <Daisuke_Ido> sorry
[11:44] <kikkoman> wiglaf: My upgrade to feisty was somewhat slow also, just wait it out >.>;
[11:44] <LjL> ober0ne: whenever i said  gksudo gedit , make that  kdesu kate , sorry
[11:45] <ober0ne> oddly enough the gksudo gedit worked
[11:45] <wiglaf> I'm trying to update my current packages, and it won't connect to some of the repos
[11:45] <louieb39c> well Ubuntu's servers are fast, but not THAT fast
[11:45] <ober0ne> or not
[11:45] <louieb39c> there are a lot of people downloading I assume
[11:45] <LjL> ober0ne: that would mean you have Ubuntu and not Kubuntu (or Ubuntu as well as Kubuntu =)
[11:45] <intelikey> ober0ne not odd.  you have gnome installed
[11:45] <wiglaf> yeah, most likely
[11:45] <whytheam> It wont mount!  DEAR GOD MAKE IT MOUNT !
[11:45] <wiglaf> I also have torrents running so I can get the alt CD and try to do an update that-wise
[11:46] <ober0ne> emmm... the list generator wants to generate one for ubuntu... does that matter?
[11:46] <intelikey> whytheam i'm not he, but if you'll give me the details i'll see what i can do
[11:46] <louieb39c> Love most about Ubuntu = Community :)
[11:46] <LjL> ober0ne: it's fine, Ubuntu and Kubuntu are the very same distribution, just a different set of packages installed by default
[11:46] <wiglaf> I have the i386 CD already...so I may end up backing up and going from scratch...or resizing partitions and moving after the new install
[11:46] <ober0ne> ok
[11:46] <LjL> ober0ne: just make sure you select the mirror for your country - or a mirror you know is fast for you, anyway
[11:47] <ober0ne> so I'm enabling multi- and uni- verses?
[11:47] <intelikey> whytheam device name ?   desired mountpoint ?    and fs type ?
[11:47] <LjL> ober0ne: yeppers, and since you're interested in codecs, i'd also enable seveas and, possibly, medibuntu
[11:47] <makuseru> anyone know what the room for Ubuntu Studio is?
[11:47] <kikkoman> I've compiled the Unreal IRCd and it has loaded with no problems, but people cannot connect to it. I think it may be a problem of unopened ports. When people connect, it says Connection timed out. How would you solve it, /b/? >.>; I mean #kubuntu
[11:47] <wolferine> anyone good with proftpd, I cannot share an nfs share within my root, someone able to help?
[11:48] <whytheam> I entered the command [gedit /etc/fstab]  and changed /dev/hdd1 /media/storage ext3 defaults 0 0 to /dev/sdb /media/storage ext3 defaults 0 0
[11:48] <ober0ne> ok, I didn't see those 2 repositories
[11:48] <whytheam> then mount
[11:48] <intelikey> whytheam these can be determined by     sudo fdisk -l     and ls /media   (assuming media is acceptable base dir)
[11:48] <LjL> ober0ne: scroll down...
[11:48] <jaims> hello
[11:48] <ober0ne> I saw seveas and medibuntu, but not the multi and uni
[11:48] <whytheam> it is
[11:48] <whytheam> it said it's there
[11:48] <jaims> one easy question
[11:49] <wiglaf> kickit, Jaims
[11:49] <LjL> ober0ne: those are the first two ones, and they're ticked by default anyway
[11:49] <jaims> updates for digicam and tzdata
[11:49] <intelikey> whytheam ok.    /dev/sdb  would be whole divice  not a partition is that the intent ?
[11:49] <ober0ne> Ohhh... ok
[11:49] <jaims> kubuntu edgy, kde 3.5.6
[11:49] <whytheam> yes
[11:49] <jaims> doesnt update
[11:49] <ober0ne> again with the attention to detail
[11:49] <wiglaf> oh, jaims...I'm having the same issue
[11:49] <dennister> for ubuntu-7.04-server I'm trying to seed, but there are 200 seeders and only 22 leechers :-)
[11:49] <jaims> ok
[11:49] <guga> hi
[11:49] <jaims> i expected that
[11:49] <guga> does anyone know what program i can use to build websites, similar to FrontPage ?
[11:49] <ober0ne> do I need to uncomment the gpg key?
[11:49] <jaims> i reckon its not important and will be fixed
[11:50] <wiglaf> that, and my apt-get update is taking 45mins...
[11:50] <VSpike> guga: quanta plus maybe
[11:50] <intelikey> whytheam   sudo mount /dev/sdb /media/storage
[11:50] <jaims> yes
[11:50] <jaims> same here
[11:50] <_4strO> guga: blufish, quante, nvu
[11:50] <guga> VSpike: is it in the repos _
[11:50] <guga> ?
[11:50] <intelikey> and tell me what it says if it says anything
[11:50] <_4strO> guga: quanta
[11:50] <wiglaf> guga...have you tried the OOo?
[11:50] <jaims> maybe due to feisty fawn dloads
[11:50] <louieb39c> guga this might due? www.myeclipseide.com/ContentExpress-display-ceid-54.html
[11:50] <wiglaf> that's my guess, jaims
[11:50] <_4strO> guga: bluefish :p
[11:50] <LjL> ober0ne: don't uncomment anything, use what it gives you as-is
[11:50] <ober0ne> ok
[11:50] <whytheam> "you must specify the filesystem type"
[11:50] <jaims> aha
[11:51] <Franzmaximilian> Using edgy.  Since yesterday whatever package i try to install using Adept gives an error while installing like: There was an error commiting changes. Possibly there was a problem downloading some packages or the commit would break packages.
[11:51] <Franzmaximilian> any aidea?
[11:51] <jaims> ty wiglaf
[11:51] <intelikey> whytheam ok that message is saying that there is no filesystem on sdb
[11:51] <VSpike> guga: should be.  "sudo aptitude install quanta"
[11:51] <guga> thanks!!
[11:51] <intelikey> whytheam are you sure you don't want sdb1 ?
[11:51] <rstanca> guys, any ideea why my hd is now /dev/sda, not /dev/hda?
[11:51] <miki_> hi all
[11:51] <rstanca> weird
[11:51] <Daisuke_Ido> rstanca: it's a change in the new kernel, they're all sd* now
[11:51] <ober0ne> ok... kdesu kate won't let me save the new copy of sources.list
[11:51] <nick_> Has anyone noticed that this version of Amarok is pretty buggy?
[11:51] <VSpike> rstanca: kernel change
[11:52] <intelikey> rstanca yes   scsi emulation
[11:52] <kikkoman> #kubuntu, send me thy help. I need to open ports 6667, 7000, 8000, and 50000. Please tell me how to do such.
[11:52] <whytheam> yes it's just a storage hd no OS
[11:52] <intelikey> whytheam but does it have a partition table ?
[11:52] <Daisuke_Ido> you have to specify the filesystem type with -t <fstype>
[11:52] <jaims> kikkoman: maybe using firestarter
[11:52] <miki_> can you recommend any tool for resizing ext3 partition?
[11:52] <jaims> thats what i use
[11:52] <intelikey> whytheam   sudo fdisk -l /dev/sdb
[11:52] <whytheam> yes
[11:52] <kikkoman> jaims: >.>; What is that and how do I use it?
[11:52] <whytheam> hold on
[11:52] <fakepatriot> can someone tell me why apt-get dist-upgrade isnt working?
[11:52] <intelikey> whytheam then you want the partition not the disk.
[11:52] <LjL> ober0ne: uh? did it ask for a password before opening?
[11:53] <jaims> graphic front end for firewall
[11:53] <intelikey> whytheam   sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /media/storage
[11:53] <ober0ne> yes, and I typed it in right and everything :p
[11:53] <LjL> ober0ne: what's it saying?
[11:53] <kikkoman> jaims: Ok, so how would I use it to open the ports?
[11:53] <ober0ne> I don't have write permissions
[11:53] <whytheam> it is but it worked ad sdb1 but my files arnt there
[11:53] <LjL> !doesn't work | fakepatriot
[11:53] <ubotu> fakepatriot: Doesn't work is a strong statement. Does it sit on the couch all day? Does it want more money? Is it on IRC all the time? Please be specific! Examples of what doesn't work tend to help too.
[11:53] <jaims> piece of kake kikkoman
[11:53] <Arwen> how many of you guys upgraded to feisty yet?
[11:53] <intelikey> whytheam chmod  or chown
[11:53] <photon> Could you recommend a firewall frontend which does not require deep knowledge to configure?
[11:53] <jaims> install it
[11:54] <jaims> open it (youll have to type ur sudo pwd)
[11:54] <alphi_> configure: error: Please unset CONFIG_MODVERSIONS for /usr/src/linux and rebuild your kernel
[11:54] <LjL> ober0ne: weird enough. can you go to a terminal and type  ls -l /etc/apt/sources.list  for me please? (and give the output)
[11:54] <alphi_> can anyone help me do that ?
[11:54] <intelikey> whytheam you can read the manpage on both and decide which you want/need
[11:54] <markc> should a GeForce 6600 LE be nvdidia-glx or nvidia-glx-new ?
[11:54] <whytheam> I'm going to sound stupid but what
[11:54] <jaims> 3rd tab to set rules
[11:54] <Cugel> dudes I lost my trashcan -- where is my trash stored in feisty?
[11:54] <miki_> hm
[11:54] <wiglaf> I'm thinking I'm going to resize partitions and install, then move files/configs and absorb the old partitions
[11:54] <LjL> !firewall | photon
[11:54] <ubotu> photon: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[11:54] <jaims> very easy, believe me
[11:54] <whytheam> got them
[11:54] <kikkoman> jaims: thanks :D
[11:54] <jaims> np
[11:54] <jaims> :)
[11:54] <ober0ne> "-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1844 2007-04-20 17:19 /etc/apt/sources.list"
[11:54] <whytheam> it's all there will it stay mounted
[11:55] <LjL> ober0ne: uhm, root does have write permissions. something seems wrong with your kdesu...
[11:55] <jaims> bye all
[11:55] <kikkoman> cya
[11:55] <fakepatriot> it sits on the couch all day and it won't clean its room! what else could i mean!? its not upgrading my distro...to me that sounds like not working...i apologize if it could mean something else
[11:55] <ober0ne> it worked before
[11:55] <jaims> thanks wiglaf
[11:55] <jaims> bye
[11:55] <intelikey> whytheam    ch=change  mod=mode (permissions)    own=ownership      chmod  to set permission    chown to change ownership      determine which you need/want and i'll help you use it.
[11:55] <markc> anyone with a GeForce 6600 LE ? did you use nvidia-glx or nvidia-glx-new ?
[11:56] <wiglaf> markc...what does automatix install? I think it's nvidia-glx, and It likes my 6600 just fine
[11:56] <LjL> ober0ne: ok, i'm a bit at a loss (i could tell you other ways to do this, but we should get kdesu to work anyway). just please try closing kate and doing it all again
[11:56] <whytheam> will it mount at start up if yes that's all i need if no HOW DO I DO THAT
[11:56] <LjL> ober0ne: that is, type  kdesu kate /etc/apt/sources.list  in a terminal again, and paste your new list to it again, and try saving again
[11:57] <Daisuke_Ido> again with the automatix!
[11:57] <wiglaf> yeah...
[11:57] <Arwen> ick, automatix
[11:57] <markc> wiglaf: thanks, not sure I want to use automatix
[11:57] <Daisuke_Ido> once more:
[11:57] <Daisuke_Ido> !automatix
[11:57] <ubotu> 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
[11:57] <LjL> wiglaf: you like unbootable systems too?
[11:57] <intelikey> whytheam you said no write access didnt you ?     and if you edit the fstab to sdb1 it will mount
[11:57] <louieb39c> wiglaf - my linux is digested along with the spoon
[11:57] <Franzmaximilian> Using Edgy.  Since yesterday, whatever package i try to install using Adept gives an error while installing like: "There was an error commiting changes. Possibly there was a problem downloading some packages or the commit would break packages. "  Any idea ??
[11:57] <Arwen> I could write a 2 line script to do everything that automatix does...
[11:57] <louieb39c> you will get that way too
[11:57] <whytheam> hold on
[11:57] <Arwen> and safely none the less
[11:58] <Daisuke_Ido> Franzmaximilian: in konsole: 'sudo apt-get -f install'
[11:58] <fakepatriot> ok i'll try this again...does anyone know why apt-get dist-upgrade isn't upgrading my distro?
[11:58] <whytheam> i can save to it
[11:58] <louieb39c> arwen - then do it and put it on the web! gotta help the community
[11:58] <Arwen> louieb39c, pssh
[11:58] <whytheam> It just woulden't mount
[11:58] <wiglaf> straight-up, Arwen
[11:58] <Arwen> no point, MANUAL INSTALL
[11:59] <Daisuke_Ido> not to mention feisty makes automatix 99% obsolete
[11:59] <louieb39c> Im not a programmer - but Im here to do my part for the community - help who I an
[11:59] <intelikey> whytheam ok    then just edit the fstab and correct the  /dev/sdb   to  /dev/sdb1
[11:59] <whytheam> I NEED to know if it will mount at start up now
[11:59] <Daisuke_Ido> whytheam: with the correct fstab setting, yes it will
[11:59] <wiglaf> that's what kills me about the community...it needs some English majors, badly...lord help anyone looking for a manual
[11:59] <ober0ne> ok, it let me save that time
[11:59] <ober0ne> I think
[11:59] <intelikey> whytheam did you edit the fstab like i said ?
[11:59] <hummm41> hello everyone
[11:59] <Franzmaximilian> Yes Daisuke_Ido . I know I can do that. But why Adept does not work? It have always been working fine for me before
[11:59] <louieb39c> well wiglaf why are you here? on IRC that is
[11:59] <Daisuke_Ido> that will fix apt
[11:59] <markc> time for a reboot for  nvidia... thanks for the help
[11:59] <LjL> ober0ne: well, then type  sudo apt-get update  and then see if  sudo apt-get install vlc  works
[11:59] <ober0ne> now what?
[11:59] <wiglaf> because I couldn't find a manual!
[11:59] <intelikey> whytheam that's a yes or no question.   don't strain your brain thinking it over...
[11:59] <whytheam> it wont let me save
[11:59] <wiglaf> lol
[12:00] <louieb39c> HA
[12:00] <louieb39c> nice
[12:00] <Daisuke_Ido> do it and try again, though it's probably a single update that's causing problems
[12:00] <nick_> I've always preferred synaptic to adept
[12:00] <nick_> that was the first thing i installed
[12:00] <intelikey> whytheam save to your home dir and   sudo cp it back to /etc
[12:00] <Daisuke_Ido> filter it down to just upgradable packages and see what's broken
[12:00] <hummm41> I have a question for you about ubuntu server: can it be installer into a Pentium 1 with 256 MB RAM? Need a >= i686?
[12:01] <wiglaf> but enough whining from me...I should just go WTFM (Write the f manual)
[12:01] <ober0ne> ok, it's getting headers
[12:01] <dany_21> hello... i have (and also had prior feisty) a quite low harddisk/filesystem througput - from one drive to another i mostly get 5...6MB/s - in Win (on the same hardware) i have two...three times more - where could i search/tune? any ideas?
[12:01] <Franzmaximilian> Daisuke_Ido, I'm not doing upgrades. My Edgy is up to date.  I only want to add a few packages
[12:01] <louieb39c> I am really tempted to get a pS3, and throw linux on it despite my hatred for sony....but it runs on a hypervisor and it has 256Mb ram :( - even though its fast...I need  more for all my VMs!
[12:01] <Franzmaximilian> and none of them gets installed!
[12:01] <intelikey> whytheam    if you want me to dubble check the fstab for you pastebin it.
[12:01] <LjL> ober0ne: apt-get update should complete pretty fast. if it doesn't, you're probably using busy mirrors (you know, with feisty just released some of the mirrors are very loaded)
[12:01] <Daisuke_Ido> there's something it doesn't like...  what happens when you sudo apt-get -f install?
[12:02] <ober0ne> yeah
[12:02] <ober0ne> how do I change my mirrors?
[12:02] <ober0ne> (I oddly enough don't know a lot about mirrors)
[12:02] <intelikey> whytheam or if you only want that one line dubble checked    grep /dev/sdb /etc/fstab   and  drop it in here
[12:02] <Franzmaximilian> i will try now Daisuke_Ido  and will let you know.  thanks and see you later if needed
[12:02] <Daisuke_Ido> k
[12:02] <LjL> ober0ne: you make a new sources.list from source-o-matic. or you just edit /etc/apt/sources.list and change them manually, mirrors are all in the form "xx.archive.ubuntu.com", xx being a country code
[12:02] <whytheam> hold on
[12:02] <Daisuke_Ido> no need to leave here to do that though :)
[12:03] <LjL> ober0ne: i suggest you avoid the US mirrors and the UK mirrors right now. i'm using the swedish (se.archive.ubuntu.com)
[12:03] <pingveno> My CVS package has gotten corrupted, but when I'm trying to reinstall it my computer slows down, then freezes.

[12:03] <pingveno> I think the fs might be screwed up
[12:03] <whytheam> feel realy stupid I forgot to put sudo in front it saved
[12:03] <wiglaf> avoid the canadian mirrors, now, too...I'm dragging on them ever so painfully
[12:03] <M_Fatih> hi, ubuntu not booting.. says `/dev/hda2 does not exists` and after `/bin/sh: can`t access tty; job control turned off` how can i boot.. i searched forums.. there too many users have this problem but there is no solution... i tired to try to fix this. :.....(
[12:04] <LjL> M_Fatih: there is a bug report (a few, actually) like that
[12:04] <ober0ne> why does vlc come from a security repository?
[12:04] <intelikey> whytheam yeah,   i find being in a hurry makes thing take 5 times as long....
[12:04] <M_Fatih> what must i do? i can`t work now?
[12:04] <LjL> M_Fatih: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/initramfs-tools/+bug/96084
[12:05] <whytheam> ok is that all i need to do
[12:05] <LjL> sorry but i haven't read it yet, i guess you'll have to take your own conclusions
[12:05] <intelikey> M_Fatih edit to sd in place of hd
[12:05] <LjL> ober0ne: probably because a security vulnerability was found after the Edgy release
[12:05] <ober0ne> ahh
[12:05] <intelikey> root=/dev/sd*
[12:05] <LjL> that's what the security repository is for, fixing vulnerabilities
[12:05] <hummm41> I have a question for you about ubuntu server feisty: can it be installed into a Pentium 1 with 256 MB RAM? it Needs a >= i686?
[12:05] <ober0ne> hey, if the conn timed out, will it try again, or try another mirror?
[12:06] <M_Fatih> hmm. i`m trying..
[12:06] <orient2000> give 5 minuts for CVS
[12:06] <LjL> ober0ne: if it times out, hit ctrl+c and try again. with the same mirror or another.
[12:06] <intelikey> whytheam do you want me to dubble check it or no ?
[12:06] <guga> what does the kubuntu logo mean when its next to a package name in adept _
[12:06] <guga> ?
[12:06] <whytheam> shure
[12:06] <wiglaf> hummm41: my opinion is just give'r a go...the i386 just may kickit
[12:07] <intelikey> whytheam short answer should be yes.     but if you want me to look    pastebin your fstab
[12:07] <louieb39c> hummm41 - get the alt edition I would say
[12:07] <intelikey> !paste | whytheam
[12:07] <ubotu> whytheam: 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)
[12:07] <M_Fatih> intelikey: only menu.lst right? fstab?
[12:07] <ober0ne> emm... LjL, can I send you a message with the output of kdesu kate /etc/apt/sources.list?
[12:07] <intelikey> M_Fatih yes
[12:07] <M_Fatih> ok
[12:07] <ober0ne> it's a little big for the channel
[12:07] <LjL> ober0ne: uh? the *output* of it?
[12:07] <hummm41> thanks wiglaf and louieb39c
[12:07] <CVirus> Where is the "Show windows from all desktops" option in kde 3.5.6 ?
[12:07] <ober0ne> terminal output
[12:07] <LjL> ober0ne: well, that's what the pastebin is for
[12:07] <LjL> !pastebin > ober0ne    (ober0ne, see the private message from Ubotu)
[12:07] <intelikey> M_Fatih fstab be set  but you can dubble check
[12:08] <louieb39c> not a problem hummm
[12:08] <wiglaf> CVirus...right-click the panel, and configure panel
[12:08] <intelikey> M_Fatih fstab defaults to blkid
[12:08] <LjL> ober0ne: ok, send it. but of course it shouldn't be *giving* any significant terminal output...
[12:08] <ober0ne> lol
[12:08] <CVirus> wiglaf: and ?
[12:08] <M_Fatih> intelikey: i changed fstab UUIDs to hdx
[12:09] <intelikey> better make it sd
[12:09] <whytheam> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/16667/
[12:09] <louieb39c> would anyone here have a ps3... with linux on it?
[12:09] <ober0ne> wait what? ps3??
[12:09] <guga> what does the kubuntu logo mean when its next to a package name in adept  ?
[12:09] <miki_> how to resize ext3 partition (with data on it)?
[12:09] <wiglaf> CVirus...
[12:10] <louieb39c> yea ober - I don't know if its worth it yet - the 8 cores are to drool over...but lack or ram and the fact it runs on a hypervisor makes me skeptical
[12:10] <wiglaf> it's in the taskbar section
[12:10] <CVirus> wiglaf: not there
[12:10] <intelikey> whytheam ok i would change the  0 0   at the end to   0 1   but it will work either way.
[12:10] <wiglaf> no?
[12:10] <guga> does feisty come with beryl or compiz ?
[12:11] <CVirus> wiglaf: not there
[12:11] <intelikey> whytheam  1 makes it replay the journal when mounting,  helps reduce the chance of corruption
[12:11] <wiglaf> no configure panel or no taskbar section in the window
[12:11] <intelikey> whytheam short answer looks good.    assuming the cdrom works.
[12:11] <thinkliberty> Anyone know how to turn on bash's page up regexp history completion?
[12:12] <Sanne> guga: I think the logo icon next to a package means it's officially supported (that is, is from main). I think.
[12:12] <louieb39c> so I guess no one tried throwing linux(hopefully an ubuntu variant) on the ps3 in here?
[12:12] <guga> thanks Sanne, what about beryl-compiz? is any of them installed by default ?
[12:13] <whytheam> yes it does
[12:13] <Sanne> guga: I heard they are installed by default in Ubuntu, but not in Kubuntu. I don't run Feisty yet, so I can't tell.
[12:13] <CVirus> wiglaf: no "show windows of the current desktop only"
[12:13] <the-erm> Anyone know off the top of their head what command you need to run to find out what version of kubuntu is installed?
[12:13] <guga> oh, ok, thanks
[12:13] <Doctor_Nick> scion: the failiure-mobile
[12:14] <wiglaf> no "Show windows from all desktops?"
