| Latty | Hey all. Running gutsy and I can't log into my MSN account with Pidgin - I can login via a web messenger - my details are correct. | 17:00 |

| Gnine | on system restart, one of 3 screenlets crashed and Evolution started with no prompt | 17:00 |
| Gnine | !support | 17:01 |
| ubotu | The official ubuntu support channel is #ubuntu. Also see http://ubuntu.com/support and http://ubuntuforums.org | 17:01 |
| Pici | Latty: #ubuntu for Gutsy questions please. | 17:01 |
| Latty | sorry, I said Gutsy | 17:03 |
| Gnine | otherwise nothing major. but unexpected wierd behaviour. firefox seems to be fine without the suggested update | 17:03 |
| Latty | I mean Hardy | 17:03 |
| Gnine | unmarked | 17:03 |
| * Gnine do not use pidgin | 17:04 | |
| Gnine | matter-of-fact i dont use any messenger service other than irc or email | 17:06 |
| Gnine | so i am no help | 17:06 |
| Pici | Gnine: Me too ;) | 17:06 |
| heret1c | back | 17:08 |
| heret1c | there appears to be umpteen sources.list's available - in any other language than english. | 17:09 |
| Pici | heret1c: are you running gnome? | 17:09 |
| heret1c | pixi> kde, mainly. have gnome, too. | 17:10 |
| * heret1c suffers the curses of both worlds 8-) | 17:11 | |

| jeffMASTERflex | the trash is giving me issues... it this related to the new vfs? | 17:27 |
| jeffMASTERflex | it persistently displays directories that were already deleted | 17:28 |
| wastrel | sieve | 17:29 |
| wastrel | mobile phone stuff yes | 17:30 |
| wastrel | luckily there's a standard that works across all phones so it'll be easy to get broad support | 17:30 |
| Gnine | check that your ~/.trash is empty | 17:44 |
| Gnine | there is a known bug about it | 17:45 |
| Gnine | just screamed at it 'permission denied' | 17:46 |
| Pici | ~/.Trash ;) | 17:46 |
| Gnine | yah | 17:47 |
| Gnine | you'll know when you see it.. but i just tried that and it is not longer working | 17:47 |
| Gnine | new bug apparently | 17:47 |
| h3sp4wn | wastrel: For all features ? (the thing about the phones) | 17:47 |
| wastrel | h3sp4wn: just joking, there's no universal standard | 17:49 |
| h3sp4wn | wastrel: ah - I thought bluetooth was pretty universal | 17:50 |
| wastrel | ah you're talking about that. i was thinkg about data sync | 17:52 |
| wastrel | yes bluetooth stuff i think is farily standardized | 17:52 |
| h3sp4wn | I can copy data etc from bluetooth but I have a common phone | 17:53 |
| h3sp4wn | I would be more interested in some way to flash semi recent nokia's (firmware change) | 17:54 |
| Pici | Hrm. Is anyone else having issues with no menus showing up in gnome-terminal? | 18:04 |
| Pici | I think it may be a translation issue. | 18:04 |
| h3sp4wn | I have that issue | 18:04 |
| h3sp4wn | using xfce4-terminal atm | 18:04 |
| Pici | I can click in the blank space, and have it come up... just wondering what bug/package this might be logged to. | 18:05 |
| h3sp4wn | dpkg -S `which gnome-terminal` | awk -F: '{print $1}' | xargs apt-cache madison | 18:07 |
| h3sp4wn | (useless in this case but that is the way to find out - gnome-terminal is the source package name | 18:08 |
| hyper_ch | hiho nice folks... I got a little problem. Currently I'm testing Hardy Alpha 4 with KDE 3.5.8 and Firefox 3 Beta 3.... now I noticed that when I want to open news in the browser from Akkregator it raises Firefox to the foreground. That is rather annoying. How can I stop that? | 18:30 |
| Unksi | set the focus stealing protection for firefox higher | 18:31 |
| hyper_ch | Unksi: can you elaborate? | 18:32 |
| Unksi | hyper_ch: right click the title bar, select advanced -> special application settings -> workarounds -> focus stealing prevention | 18:33 |
| hyper_ch | Unksi: found it out ;) I didn't set any priority :) | 18:33 |
| hyper_ch | Unksi: and so it failed to accomplish that workaround ;) | 18:33 |
| Unksi | tick it on, put force and raise the level as long as it stops it | 18:33 |
| hyper_ch | Unksi: thx | 18:33 |
| Unksi | no problem :) | 18:33 |
| hyper_ch | someone's having the same issue with konqueror but he can't seem to solve that | 18:41 |
| andre_pl | Is there any way to get firefox 2.0 back? | 18:41 |
| andre_pl | my online banking doesn't work with 3.0 :S | 18:42 |
| hyper_ch | andre_pl: there is :) | 18:42 |
| andre_pl | thank god | 18:42 |
| andre_pl | is it a pain? | 18:42 |
| hyper_ch | in aptitude (and also synaptic and adpet I think) you can set a specific version | 18:42 |
| === coz_ is now known as DrDoof | ||
| === DrDoof is now known as coz_ | ||
| andre_pl | hyper_ch: it says 3.0~b3 is the only available version | 18:44 |
| hyper_ch | andre_pl: then you might need to add a gutsy repo and force version from there | 18:44 |
| andre_pl | hmm... ok | 18:44 |
| hyper_ch | but I don't really know if that is a good idea | 18:45 |
| andre_pl | hmm. maybe I'll try opera or something. | 18:46 |
| hyper_ch | andre_pl: how about opera for online banking? | 18:47 |
| hyper_ch | andre_pl: maybe there's an ubuntu .deb on the ff homepage | 18:48 |
| hyper_ch | andre_pl: or try to download the .deb from package.ubuntu.com | 18:48 |
| andre_pl | good options. | 18:48 |
| andre_pl | hey, here's a wierd bug, totally unrelated.. anyone else noticed this? sometimes my 'new terminal' shortcut gets changed to just 'n' so every time i type an 'n' it opens a new terminal... | 18:49 |
| andre_pl | haha. | 18:49 |
| andre_pl | just have to hit alt+f n and the shortcut changes. | 18:49 |
| andre_pl | you can change any shortcut just by pressing a key with a menu entry highlighted. | 18:50 |
| andre_pl | wow | 18:50 |
| hyper_ch | nope | 18:50 |
| andre_pl | it doesn't do that for you? | 18:51 |
| andre_pl | in gnome-terminal? | 18:51 |
| hyper_ch | what's a gnome-terminal? ^^ | 18:51 |
| andre_pl | lol | 18:51 |
| andre_pl | the terminal in gnome. ;) | 18:51 |
| hyper_ch | what's that? ^^ | 18:53 |

| andre_pl | I used to love KDE, but it doesn't seem to work very well for tv-out/dual display stuff under ubuntu, and I do a lot of that... i still miss kde. | 18:55 |
| hyper_ch | it's my first kde install in the last 3 releases | 18:55 |
| andre_pl | Error: uncaught exception: Permission denied to call method Location.toString | 18:56 |
| andre_pl | thats the JS error thats preventing me from banking. | 18:56 |

| kristjan_ | then is hardy heron CD with kde4 going to be released? how long do we hate to wait? | 19:12 |
| toresbe | Has Hardy gotten to the point at which it is unlikely that your system will catch fire? | 19:19 |
| hyper_ch | toresbe: runs fine for me | 19:20 |
| toresbe | How many months is it from release? | 19:20 |
| hyper_ch | hardy is 8.04 | 19:21 |
| coz_ | toresbe, it should be release at the end o f April | 19:21 |
| toresbe | oh, April. So it should be getting better by now. | 19:21 |
| toresbe | Once they fix dpkg, I'll upgrade, and keep my cat in another room lest it catch fire. | 19:22 |
| theunixgeek | Anyone use GNUstep? I need help opening Project Builder. I don't know where it's located. | 19:22 |
| toresbe | No, nobody uses GNUstep. That's why it's broken all the time. :) | 19:22 |
| coz_ | toresbe, yes it should and the version numbering is 8.04 which is 2008 4th month | 19:22 |
| hyper_ch | april 20 - if I'm not mistaken | 19:22 |
| toresbe | coz_: I know what the version numbers mean. Just didn't know the version number. :) | 19:23 |
