| [00:06] <WACOMalt> hey folks, I need some help installing my bootloader. | |
| [00:07] <WACOMalt> I have an arch linu installation on my USB drive, and need to use kubuntu's live cd to install grub, as I forgot to do that during the arch installation. | |
| [00:09] <Kirbon> oh well, I got to get out of here and find some answers, this has been going on way to long, going elsewhere....Adios | |
| [00:09] <WACOMalt> I agree | |
| [00:09] <WACOMalt> tons of people here, none helping | |
| [00:11] <Lynn279> ok found a mouse that works through the back plug so lets try this copy paste thing again | |
| [00:12] <Daskreech> Lynn279: \0/ | |
| [00:12] <Lynn279> what is the sudo command again | |
| [00:12] <Daskreech> wait. so the other mouse doesn't work in the same port? | |
| [00:12] <Lynn279> this is one that plugs in lie the keyboard does | |
| [00:12] <Daskreech> sudo apt-get install pastebinit && sudo lsusb | pastebinit | |
| [00:13] <Lynn279> but the usb ports doesn't work | |
| [00:13] <Daskreech> WACOMalt: you mean grub? | |
| [00:13] <Daskreech> Ah it's PS2 mouse | |
| [00:13] <Daskreech> ok | |
| [00:14] <Lynn279> sudo lsmod | grep usb usbcore 149616 3 ehci_hcd,ohci_hcd | |
| [00:16] <WACOMalt> Daskreech: yeah, grub. | |
| [00:16] <Daskreech> !grub | WACOMalt | |
| [00:16] <ubottu> WACOMalt: GRUB is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto | |
| [00:16] <Daskreech> Lynn279: So USB is loading up | |
| === vanRijn_ is now known as vanRijn | |
| [00:16] <WACOMalt> I didnt lose it after installing windows though. The pc it's on has only linux, and OSx86 | |
| [00:16] <Daskreech> Lynn279: You say none og the ports work | |
| [00:16] <WACOMalt> thank you though, will try that. | |
| [00:17] <Daskreech> WACOMalt: It'll work just the same you just won't get a Windows entry | |
| [00:17] <Lynn279> thats right. it shows that it has power butnothing else | |
| [00:17] <WACOMalt> ok cool | |
| [00:17] <WACOMalt> thank you much! | |
| [00:17] <Daskreech> Lynn279: And this happened out of the blue while using the machine | |
| [00:18] <WACOMalt> Daskreech: will I need to change anything since I am using arch_64 rather than kubuntu? or will the bootloader work either way as long as it's on the right drive? | |
| [00:18] <Daskreech> WACOMalt: Grub doesn't care about arch That would be the kernel which kicks in after grub | |
| [00:19] <WACOMalt> that what I figured. Cool, thanks very much | |
| [00:19] <Lynn279> yep my friend was online saturday morning and saturday evening she moved the mouse and then it froze in one place and has been like that ever since. she tried moving it to all the different usb ports and also bought a new mouse thinking it was the mouse | |
| [00:20] <Daskreech> Lynn279: But getting power from it is strange too. | |
| [00:20] <Lynn279> yea when i plug in the mouse the light turns red for a moment but doesn't work | |
| [00:20] <Daskreech> Lynn279: My first test would be to grab a Fedora or OpenSUSE CD as I said and see if USB works there | |
| [00:20] <Daskreech> If it doesn't then it's quite likely the port or the chipset is done | |
| [00:21] <Lynn279> and her speakers work which is plugged into a usb for power purposes | |
| [00:21] <Daskreech> Actually if the chipset is done then that would explain why power coems through | |
| [00:22] <Daskreech> If those work then I would guess that you need a new kernel but I can't explain why it would stop working without a reboot or any changes. That doesn't make sense | |
| [00:22] <Lynn279> so how do you fix the chipset issue? | |
| [00:22] <Lynn279> i tried to usethe cd and it can not seem to read it | |
| [00:22] <Lynn279> i don't even want tofigure thison out :) | |
| [00:22] <Lynn279> :) | |
| [00:23] <Daskreech> Well If the chipset is done it's done. you'd need a new motherboard | |
| [00:23] <Daskreech> or if you can find one that works (Most motherboards had two chipsets on them) then get a USB hub | |
| [00:23] <Daskreech> butt the first thing is to find out if it's hardwar or not | |
| [00:24] <Daskreech> having the computer go down from a power failure originally does make that more likely but again We need to make sure :) | |
| [00:25] <Lynn279> the reallybadpart is that there are appx 6 usb ports on this computer and none of them are working other that sending power through them | |
| [00:26] <Daskreech> Ok I'll guess that's Software or some pretty bad power failure I don't think I've ever seen so many ports go bad at the same time | |
| [00:26] <Lynn279> neither havei | |
| [00:26] <Lynn279> that what has me stumped | |
| [00:27] <Lynn279> i mean if one went out i would have told her plug it in another one but none of them are working | |
| [00:27] <Daskreech> right which is why I'm thinking/hoping it's software | |
| [00:28] <Daskreech> teh current fedora or openSuse CD are close enough but different enough to test that out | |
| [00:29] <Lynn279> do i have to try and download it or can i run it from the internet? | |
| [00:33] <Daskreech> Lynn279: Umm I would guess download. You have a working mouse right now so that's crisis is lessened | |
| [00:34] <WACOMalt> Hey, Super Grub disk doesn't seem to work. It doesn't want to boot my usb drive | |
| [00:34] <Daskreech> I'm assuming that your computer can boot USB | |
| [00:34] <WACOMalt> yes | |
| [00:34] <Daskreech> Lynn279: You said that you couldn't boot the CD that you had? | |
| [00:34] <WACOMalt> I boot into SGD correctly | |
| [00:35] <WACOMalt> I mean it won't boot arch | |
| [00:35] <WACOMalt> doesn't seem to find my arch disk | |
| [00:36] <WACOMalt> thinking I'll just reinstall arch :P | |
| [00:36] <Lynn279> yes but it is on loan so i have to fix this issue quickly | |

| [01:11] <KDesk> hi | |
| [01:12] <KDesk> I wanto to use the command asoundconf but there is no such file, I would like to know in which package can I find that program? | |
| [01:14] <dbc254> can anyone assist with an Xsession error? | |
| [01:16] <Daskreech> genii: Ever heard of 6 USB pots dyingat the same time? | |
| [01:17] <genii> Daskreech: Yup. | |
| [01:17] <dbc254> nope | |
| [01:17] <Daskreech> genii: what caused it? | |
| [01:18] <genii> Daskreech: Plugging the header of the usb cord in backwards to the motherboard pins | |
| [01:19] <dbc254> but it only fits in ONE way <unless you jam it in there> | |
| [01:19] <Daskreech> genii: this one died while the computer was running. Mouse stopped working | |
| [01:19] <genii> Daskreech: Likely USB controller fried then | |
| [01:20] <genii> dbc254: The one side has no blocked out pin-hole. So it happens when you get only 1 row on and reversed it | |
| [01:20] <Daskreech> genii: Ok I asked the person to get a Fedora or an openSUSE live CD and try the ports then to check but it sounded very dead to me | |
| [01:20] <Daskreech> oh the ports still give power | |
| [01:20] <Daskreech> That was strange too | |
| [01:22] <dbc254> can anyone assist with an Xsession error? | |
| [01:22] <genii> Daskreech: I've also seen but only once... if you are plugging in a usb device and have it backwards but manage to touch the contacts anyhow and it sparks for a sec | |
| [01:22] <genii> (then it fries the controller) | |
| [01:23] <dbc254> ZZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzztt! Add cornmeal. It's FRIED! | |
| [01:23] <genii> dbc254: Hehe... odds are yes | |
| === jscudder is now known as scudder | |
| [01:26] <genii> dbc254: What is the error message it gives? | |
| [01:27] <Lynn> ok so nothing i have tried has worked. i can not play any cds, dvds, can't get usb ports to work nothing | |
| [01:29] <genii> dbc254: As per my message to you, please use this channel. I do not assist in private message unless sensitive private info is involved which is inappropriate for here | |
| [01:29] <Daskreech> Lynn: genii agrees with me that it might be a fried controller | |
| [01:29] <Lynn> ok so what sort of recommendations do you have for my friend? | |
| [01:29] <genii> dbc254: The message occurs at what point of loading X? kdm ? | |
| [01:30] <Daskreech> dbc254: as much as possible try to get help in the right channel. More peopel can see and help you if the person has to leave others can cathc up without having to be retold the entire story and people who had no idea can learn from your situation | |
| [01:30] <Daskreech> Lynn: Well as I said you need to ensure that it is hardware by using a differnt setup | |
| [01:30] <Daskreech> Wait you have no optical drive in the machine? | |
| [01:31] <genii> Lynn: Please use pastebin website to show us dmesg output. If some hardware is borked it might show why there | |
| [01:31] <Lynn> ok the only problem is that i can't run any cds or the usbs | |
| [01:32] <Lynn> what do i need tosudo in it? | |
| [01:32] <genii> Lynn: sudo apt-get install pastebinit then: dmesg|pastebinit and give us the URL it reports | |
| [01:33] <Daskreech> You have a CD but you can't see the CDs? | |
| [01:35] <Lynn> http://pastebin.com/f717f63c3 | |
| [01:35] <genii> Reading | |
| [01:39] <genii> Lynn: Theres hope. It's seeing your usb controller | |
| [01:41] <Lynn> ok so how can i fix the issue? | |
| [01:43] <genii> Lynn: It is groaning a bit about load order of usb drivers. Try: sudo modprobe -r uhci_hcd ; sudo modprobe -r ehci_hcd ;sudo modprobe -r ohci_hcd and then reload them in the order of: ehci_hcd then ohci_hcd then uhci_hcd with: sudo modprobe ehci_hcd ; sudo modprobe ohci_hcd ; sudo modprobe uhci_hcd | |
| [01:43] <genii> And then see if some usb thing like mouse works | |
| [01:43] <genii> Door, AFK | |
| [01:44] * Daskreech hangs around for support | |
| [01:47] <genii> Back | |
| [01:48] <Lynn> nope that didn't work | |
| [01:49] <genii> Lynn: What reports back from command: groups | |
| [01:49] <Lynn> nothing | |
| [01:49] <genii> (conceivably not in plugdev and cdrom groups) | |
| [01:50] <Lynn> iput it in andit justgoesaround to the @home for the next command | |
| [01:50] <genii> That sounds borked. Because you should see at least the name of the group which is also your name | |
| [01:50] <Daskreech> how can you be in no groups? You should be in at least one | |
| [01:51] <laurent_> hello | |
| [01:51] <Daskreech> Hello | |
| [01:52] <genii> Lynn: That dmesg paste... has the machine been rebooted since the usb/cd stopped working? (eg is it old info from when things worked before or after they stopped) | |
| [01:52] <Lynn> eboni@home:~$ sudo modprobe -r uhci_hcd eboni@home:~$ sudo modprobe -r ehci_hcd eboni@home:~$ sudo modprobe -r ohci_hcd eboni@home:~$ sudo modprobe ehci_hcd eboni@home:~$ sudo modprobe ohci_hcd eboni@home:~$ sudo modprobe uhci_hcd eboni@home:~$ | |
| [01:52] <Lynn> yes it has been rebooted like 3differenttimes | |
| [01:52] <genii> Lynn: THAT set of commands should just return to $ , yes. But what says result of command: groups | |
| [01:53] <laurent_> chuis le seul francais snif | |

| [01:54] <Daskreech> Ok that's better | |
| [01:55] <Lynn> sorrybeen a long days took a min to realise what u were talking about | |
| [01:55] <genii> So the user is in the correct groups of cdrom and plugdev to use those devices. | |
| [01:55] <Lynn> but nothing is working | |

| [01:58] <Daskreech> looks right | |

| === BlAcK_BaRbiE is now known as Firefishe | |

| [02:01] <genii> eg: ls -l /dev/scd0 | |
| [02:02] <genii> nikitis: No linux supports ActiveX | |
| [02:02] <nikitis> genii: what happened to this then? http://www.konqueror.org/announcements/reaktivate.php | |
| [02:04] <genii> nikitis: There have been some private efforts to reverse-engineer ActiveX but nothing useful as far as i know | |
| [02:04] <Lynn> so doyou have any other ideas? | |
| [02:04] <Lynn> if not i'm going to give up for the evening | |
| [02:05] <nikitis> genii: so was reaktivate dropped? | |
| [02:05] <genii> Lynn: report: ls -l /dev/scd0 | |
| [02:05] <Lynn> i did already | |
| [02:05] <Lynn> lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 2005-12-31 19:06 /dev/sr0 -> scd0 | |
| [02:05] <genii> Lynn: That was sr0. We want to know scd0 | |
| [02:05] <Lynn> oh srry | |
| [02:05] <genii> Lynn: sr0 just points to scd0 | |

| [02:09] <Walzmyn> Active X is evil | |
| [02:09] <nikitis> Needed for Netflix in Konqueror | |
| [02:10] <Walzmyn> Is there a way to make a window ignore all "outside" commands, such as the alt+click to move command? | |
| [02:11] <Walzmyn> nikitis: I don't wanna start a standards flame war, but there's ways for them to distribute their product witout using a propriatory POS like that | |
| [02:11] <Walzmyn> active X is still evil | |
| [02:11] <nikitis> well i agree | |
| [02:11] <nikitis> but they aren't going to | |
| [02:11] <nikitis> So support is needed | |
| [02:11] <Daskreech> nikitis: Granted KDE is not linux but if you install KDE on windows and use IE then it does indeed support activeX :-) | |
| [02:12] <nikitis> eek | |
| [02:13] <Daskreech> genii: what were you looking for in /dev/scd0 ? | |
| [02:14] <genii> Daskreech: To make sure the cdrom hardware device entry had root:cdrom as user:group so it jives with the groups the user belongs to | |
| [02:15] <Daskreech> any idea as to why the USB would just stop working? | |
| [02:18] <genii> Daskreech: Conceivable from what I can tell it might be some HAL thing. Hardware is being seen on low-level and udev is making the right /dev nodes with correct permissions, the user is in the correct groups to use the devices. | |
| [02:19] <Daskreech> HAL should be reset after a reboot no? | |
| [02:19] <genii> Daskreech: Yes :/ | |
| [02:20] <Daskreech> grrr | |
| [02:21] <Walzmyn> I'd really like to have an internet connection that would stay connected. | |
| [02:21] <dbc254> as I'm booting up. It's semi-verbose, so I can watch text flying by, but there are no errors. Then I get this msg box. Clicking OK gets me by it | |
| [02:22] <genii> Daskreech: The other possibility is that the BIOS is reporting the hardware to linux as if itś working properly but that in reality some part of the controllers for the usb or cd are fried | |
| [02:23] <genii> dbc254: touch ~/.Xsession | |
| [02:23] <dbc254> just type in that command? | |
| [02:24] <Daskreech> yes | |
| [02:24] <dbc254> I just did it, but nothing happened. Used "sudo" | |
| [02:24] <genii> dbc254: There is usually no xsession file by default. If you make a blank one by "touching" it then it likely won't wail anymore. I forget if uppercase X is actually required or not | |
| [02:24] <Daskreech> argh | |
| [02:24] <Daskreech> not sudo | |
| [02:25] <dbc254> what did I do to create this malady | |
| [02:25] <genii> dbc254: "nothing happened" means command successfully completed | |
| [02:26] <dbc254> so I should try restarting and see if I get the error. Why did Daskreech argh that I used sudo | |
| [02:26] <dbc254> did I screw this up? | |
| [02:26] <Lynn> thanks for all your help i think i am going to call it a night at her hou house. | |
| [02:26] <genii> Daskreech: With sudo and ~/ in the argument it won put it in his actual home dir luckily | |
| [02:26] <Daskreech> genii: Sure? | |
| [02:26] <Daskreech> Lynn: Will you be back? | |
| [02:27] <Lynn> i am goingto head home. will u guys be on fora while? | |
| [02:27] <dbc254> so I should type that again without SUDO? | |
| [02:27] <genii> dbc254: Because making root-owned files in a specific users directory causes many problems | |
| [02:27] <Daskreech> Lynn: Yes | |
| [02:27] <Lynn> good i should be home in about an hour if you come up with anything in the mean time. | |
| [02:27] <Lynn> thanks | |
| [02:27] <Lynn> see u in a bit | |
| [02:28] <dbc254> tried typing that in witout SUDO and got permission denied. How do I undo this? | |
| [02:28] <genii> dbc254: The first time you typed it it worked. It just doesnt say something like "hey I completed OK" it just goes back to command prompt which is what it's supposed to do | |
| [02:28] <Daskreech> genii: The bash interpeter would grab it before the sudo is run so it should make it in whatever $HOME is for the user he's running it for | |
| [02:28] <Daskreech> assuming that dbc254 is a he | |
| [02:28] <Daskreech> Bye Lynn | |
| [02:29] <dbc254> then I should try to restart to see if the "touch" worked? | |
| [02:29] <genii> dbc254: Holdon | |
| [02:29] <Daskreech> dbc254: sudo rm ~/.Xsession && touch ~/.Xsession | |
| [02:29] <Daskreech> what's XSession for? | |

| [03:46] <Daskreech> Assuming that Lynn706 is a she :) | |
| [03:48] <genii> Daskreech: If its software, should still boot from CD if it was capable before of that. The current idea i have is to boot a livecd and see if usb works from that. Then we know itś software and not hardware fail. | |
| [03:49] <Daskreech> That was my suggestion from the start | |
| [03:49] <Daskreech> Though I think Lynn706 either said that CDs couldn't be burned or couldn't be burned from that computer | |
| [03:53] <genii> Daskreech: I came in sometime after and didn't see your suggestion to that effect. I suppose they need to make a livecd and none handy, etc etc | |

| [03:57] <ikbel> I am searching for kubuntu for an LG netbook | |
| [03:57] <genii> !unr | |
| [03:57] <ubottu> Sorry, I don't know anything about unr | |
| [03:58] <genii> Hm | |
| [03:58] <Daskreech> :-) | |
| [03:58] <Daskreech> !netbook | |
| [03:58] <ubottu> Sorry, I don't know anything about netbook | |
| [03:58] <Daskreech> Stupid bo | |
| [03:58] <Daskreech> t | |
| [03:58] <ikbel> :D | |
| [03:58] <Daskreech> ikbel: What do you mean Kubuntu on a LG netbook ? | |
| [03:59] <genii> ikbel: You can check the list of models from the link on http://www.ubuntu.com/GetUbuntu/download-netbook | |
| [03:59] <ikbel> genii: this is ubuntu, not kubuntu | |
| [03:59] <genii> ikbel: As far as i know no Kubuntu-specific netbook-remix. But you can install it from a regular ubuntu with package kubuntu-desktop | |
| [04:00] <Daskreech> genii: there is | |
| [04:00] <Daskreech> Just in KK | |
| [04:00] <Daskreech> plasma-netbook I think | |
| [04:00] <genii> Daskreech: Ah good :) I learn something every day | |
| [04:00] <Daskreech> instead of plasma-desktop :) | |
| [04:01] <Daskreech> ikbel: Which may be unfortunate for you | |
| [04:01] <ikbel> links ? | |
| [04:02] <genii> ikbel: Since it would be in Karmic (9.10) you may want to enquire in #ubuntu+1 (which is also #kubuntu+1 ) | |
| [04:05] <genii> Apparently he couldn be bothered, didn go there to ask | |
| [04:08] <Daskreech> What is with the FloodBot? | |
| [04:09] <Daskreech> I really don't like that thing | |
| [04:10] <genii> Daskreech: proxy users like mibbit get screened by the floodbots | |

| [04:29] <Daskreech> Which PDF ? | |
| [04:29] <Daskreech> If it's publically available | |

| [05:30] <Daskreech> Not sure what you are asking | |
| [05:30] <Daskreech> what do you want to do | |
| [05:31] <corigo> I want to view my pdf file... sniff. and Okular won't display it properly when I zoom-in | |

| [05:40] <Daskreech> Is it just at that zoom or anything above it? | |

| [10:47] <Guest71131> ok, for those who may be having problems with kde 4.3 under jaunty... if you have a slow hard drive or external hard drive... the suse free space notifier service will cause kded4 for run really slow | |
| [10:48] <Guest71131> it will cause it to run slow anyway... but you will notice huge lag if you have a slow hd | |

| [12:31] <paloris_J> No it hasent happened to me before either | |
| [12:32] <paloris_J> I see that it has happened befor. On line that is | |
| [12:32] <paloris_J> but there was no explination on how to fix it | |
| [12:32] <afief> paloris_J: perhaps the hdd is starting to get faulty and the kernel won't recognize it that way while windows is being more tolerant? | |

| [14:37] <Guest49177> why does kubuntu bundle the suse free space notifier with kde? | |
| [14:38] <Guest49177> it is a resource hog | |
| [14:38] <Guest49177> it doubles the cpu usage of kded4 on a decent speed hard drive | |
| [14:39] <Guest49177> it will make kded4 run at 50%+ cpu usage when the hard drive is slow (e.g: I have an external hard drive mounted under my home folder) | |
| === desti_T2 is now known as desti | |
| [14:39] <Guest49177> and suse's free space notifier makes the system totally unresponsive | |
| [14:40] <genii> Guest49177: Perhaps ask them why in #kubuntu-devel | |
| [14:40] <Dragnslcr> What's the name of this program? | |
| [14:40] <Guest49177> I can't even log out because kded4 is stalling so bad | |
| [14:40] <Guest49177> suse free space notifier | |
| [14:40] <Dragnslcr> The actual program name | |
| [14:40] <Guest49177> it's not even kde 4.3 software | |
| [14:40] <Guest49177> it's 3rd party | |
| [14:40] <Dragnslcr> i.e. the process name | |
| [14:40] <Guest49177> well kded4 | |
| [14:41] <Guest49177> like I said | |
| [14:41] <Guest49177> its a 3rd party system service | |
| [14:41] <Bou> you rant about it this morning already no? | |
| [14:41] <Guest49177> Bou, yes... but that was on #kde... now we have discovered the problem | |
| [14:41] <Guest49177> I have submitted a bug report to suse | |
| [14:42] <Dragnslcr> I'd say it's just you. kded4 isn't using any CPU for me | |
| [14:42] <Guest49177> Dragnslcr, like I said... it depends on your hard drive speed | |
| [14:42] <Dragnslcr> You can try searching the forums or Launchpad | |
| [14:42] <Guest49177> if you mount a large slow hard drive under your home you will see what I am talking about | |
| [14:43] <Guest49177> when I say slow it could be a large usb pen drive | |
| [14:43] <Guest49177> or and external usb magnetic drive | |
| [14:43] <Guest49177> I experimented with both and both have same problem | |
| [14:44] <Guest49177> but the drive obviously needs to have alot of files on it | |
| [14:44] <Guest49177> for you to reproduce | |
| [14:44] <Guest49177> it also may have something todo with the filesystem | |
| [14:45] * genii sips his coffee | |
| [14:45] <Guest49177> I'm not sure how the free space notifier works but it appears to go through the entire filesystem counting files recursively | |
| [14:45] <Guest49177> it doesn't just do it once... it appears to do it for every folder! | |
| [14:46] <Guest49177> I am looking at the source code for it to find the problem | |
| [14:46] <Guest49177> but I a nooby kde/qt developer | |
| [14:46] <genii> Guest49177: Again, I would refer you to the #kubuntu-devel channel. Someone there will know more about it than in here. | |

| [15:28] <Bou> vmware? | |
| [15:29] <theadmin1> Bou, Hm, maybe i will try that out. *opens google* | |
| [15:30] <theadmin1> free 60-day trial? Nah, i mean, like, free one. | |
| [15:30] <Bou> i tried both, and for me vmware is winning (my opinion only) | |
| [15:30] <Bou> there is a free version | |
| [15:30] <Bou> i'm not using a trial | |
| [15:31] <theadmin1> Free version is, uh, only to load the already created virtual machines right | |
| [15:31] <Bou> look for vmware server version | |
| [15:31] <theadmin1> Server? | |
| [15:31] <genii> You make a blank machine then install your OS into that | |

| [15:42] <Dragnslcr> theadmin- as for virtualization, if you have the CPU support, I'd recommend kvm | |

| [15:42] <Dragnslcr> you | |
| [15:43] <theadmin> What exactly do you mean by "specific" | |
| [15:44] <theadmin> "Loading kvm module --- fail"... why the? | |
| [15:45] <theadmin> Oh well, have to go. | |
| [15:50] <markrodriguez> how do ou send pm's and who is the admin on this chat? | |
| [15:50] <markrodriguez> or should i say, who is pretty knowledgable on installing a printer? | |
| [15:50] <Dragnslcr> markrodriguez- depends on what client you're using. Usually it's either /msg or double-click the user's name | |
| [15:51] <markrodriguez> kubuntu- | |
| [15:51] <Dragnslcr> Keep in mind, of course, that messaging people for no reason and without asking them first will promptly get you ignored | |
| [15:51] <Dragnslcr> Or kicked out of the channel if you do it repeatedly | |
| [15:52] <genii> markrodriguez: As for channel operators, they generally remain un-opped until needed. But there are about 20 who get notified when a problem occurs. | |
| [15:55] <markrodriguez> Thanks guys, the pm isn't working, i'll figure it out soon. For now if you know much about printers, please message me | |
| [16:15] <genii> markrodriguez: On this irc network your nickname needs to be registered before you can send private messages. | |
| [16:16] <markrodriguez> genii: is this a personal message? | |
| [16:16] <markrodriguez> no | |

| [16:29] <dbc254> Genii, it didn't woik! | |
| [16:30] <dbc254> hadda log in at a command line, and rm .Xsession before it would fully boot KDE HELP! | |
| [16:31] <dbc254> anybody here willing to take a stab at an Xsession error? | |
| === io is now known as Guest66078 | |
| [16:38] <genii> dbc254: The .Xsession file should have been named .xsession . All that file in your home dir does is sometimes have a list of options to pass to X like what desktop environment to load, names of some apps to start or so on. When there are no options to specify it usually should have a & in it, which means to keep going to the next item. | |
| [16:38] <genii> Work is very busy, apologies on lag. | |
| [16:39] <dbc254> so touch ~/.xsession should do the trick? | |
| [16:41] <genii> dbc254: Instead, do: echo "&" >> ~/.xsession | |
| [16:42] <dbc254> I typed that in. returned me to a prompt, so I assume something happened? | |
| [16:42] <genii> dbc254: Correct, it completed successfully if no complaint from terminal. | |
| [16:43] <dbc254> then once again, I should try to restart, and see if the error msg is bypassed? | |
| [16:43] <genii> dbc254: Yup. | |

| [17:29] <sidh> before installing kubuntu, i would like to know if the latest kubuntu for amd64 arch has some limitation for apps (that would be 32 bit only) | |
| [17:29] <Dragnslcr> sep13181- I think Kate might have its own color scheme, so check Kate's settings | |
| [17:29] <Dragnslcr> sidh- probably some, but most common programs have amd64 packages | |
| [17:30] <sidh> ok i will fetch both arch, in case there would be some problem | |
| [17:31] <sep13181> Dragnslcr: looks like you're right, but its still registering as the default/normal. do I just have to change everything manually? | |
| [17:31] <sidh> did you notice some improvement with kde 4.3 ? i mean for nic management for exemple ? | |
| [17:32] <sidh> i mean nic management by gui of course ? | |
| [17:33] <Dragnslcr> sep13181- maybe. It looks like I have the default color scheme, and it matches my KDE colors, so I'm not sure what you have to change. Maybe you have it set to a custom scheme | |
| [17:34] <sep13181> I'll fool around with it a bit. Thanks for the info, Dragnslcr | |
