[00:03] I'm not so sure that they are saved as .desktop files.... [00:03] what time ? [00:04] 1904 [00:04] - /usr/share/kde4/services/konqueror.desktop [00:04] - /usr/share/applications seems to have alot, too [00:05] yup :) [00:05] Hi guys does anyone know how to set recording from mic in Audacity? [00:05] so locate the one you want to add, locate amarok.desktop , then you can add it as an "icon" [00:05] done it already, thanks :-) [00:06] epimeth: All plasmoids that hold something are ccontainers [00:06] epimeth: Like the desktop, Folder view or the panel. They are all containers [00:08] Multi-row task manager is really cool ^^ [00:08] aviz: I've done it [00:08] so the extender lets you add more widgets to a container? [00:09] DasKreech since all plasmoids are software written in an object oriented world and at the base are Plasma::Applet's, wouldn't that make all plasmoids containers of applets at the very base that contain other things like controls dialogs a calander, etc [00:09] bandit_: Whoot! [00:10] mn: passwd from the command line or change passwrod from about me in system settings [00:11] hi guiterb [00:11] OxDeadC0de: Well done :) [00:12] snap. i am cleaning out my system and I am deleting files, and now nothing can open.

[00:33] What's orbit? [00:35] is there a kasteriods package in kubuntu? [00:36] DasKreech: I have no idea, but it said something about it in terminal [00:37] arg what on earth ever happened to kasteroids, the greatest kde game ever created [00:38] DasKreech: Ooo, I have no idea what I did, but it broke my system. There are 68 packages to remove when I sudo apt-get autoremove and those are all of the ones I want to keep. ill just do a reinstall [00:45] Hey guys need help with a Miro issue [00:45] Well, it's not an issue [00:45] There's this youtube channel (ndtitanlady) that I want to add to Miro but I can't find the RSS link [00:45] Anyone know where I can find it?

[01:16] OxDeadC0de: none [01:16] Tm_T but when the kubuntu repo's update some package, it will install over the one I install [01:16] no [01:17] unless you install your build that way [01:17] but that's not how you usually do these days with KDE trunk [01:17] no? I planned on installing it over the existing release to keep everything mostly the same, and setup a cron job to svn update, compile, and install [01:17] nah, no need to install over [01:18] got any links detailing it? :P [01:18] sure, techbase.kde.org somewhere [01:18] * Tm_T has no browser available [01:18] but I wanted to install over because space is at a premium for me [01:18] then I recommend not to build if you have any doubts [01:19] bah, building is much more fun === zer0 is now known as Guest16469 === inanimate is now known as inanimate_ === inanimate_ is now known as inanimate === Paraselene_ is now known as Paraselene__ [01:58] kinda quiet in here [01:59] in kde 4.2 under intrepid, I notice that the (what I call the) taskbar is now blue.

I have an Intrepid system, on which I have the openjdk-6-jdk package installed. I do not have a JAVA_HOME configured, however, which is blocking Tomcat from running. 1) What should JAVA_HOME be set to for that JDK? 2) Should I switch to sun-java6-jdk instead, since that's the standard and is now open source-friendly? [08:00] don't konw [08:01] nm, found it. At least the answer to #1. :-) [08:01] In entirely unrelated news, however, are there any known issues with Flash 10 on Konqueror in Intrepid?

[09:17] clarify the exact disk layout perhaps? [09:17] ouki but have much I must to give to / and to /home [09:20] depends on your needs. [09:21] it is server === Carnage` is now known as Carnage\ [09:21] i dont see a need for 2 partitions on that small a hard drive. [09:21] you are dual booting with windows? or what exactly? [09:21] no [09:21] only linux [09:22] then 9.5 gb for / and 512mb for swap.. at least... [09:22] so I need to create / and /swap [09:22] ouki thx a lot [09:22] a swap partition is NOT mounted. [09:22] so I dont need create /home [09:22] let the installer do it all automatically.. [09:22] no need for a /home unless you want a /home [09:23] If i do automatically they create me some patititon to I dont understand an d for / IIt give me just 5gb [09:24] From what i recall it made me a / and then swap. and that was it.. [09:24] unless you want to clarify a bit what the auto-setup did? [09:25] It did put swap on a logical partition i recall..

[10:14] or is there a way to log on as the owner everytime [10:14] nick__: yes, make you the owner [10:14] how [10:14] nick__: chown [10:14] "change owner" [10:15] recursively [10:15] could you explain how [10:15] sudo chown youruser:youruser -R /home/someotheruser something like that [10:16] so i just type this code into the konsole [10:16] learn to use sudo and the system properly.. You sort of sound like you want to 'DISABLE all the security' - wich is a bad idea [10:16] of coruse it depends on wha tfiles you are refering to. [10:17] not really.. specifically what i want to do is add an option to xorg.conf file to keep effects alive [10:17] if you wan tto alter system (not in the users home) files.. then its a VERY good idea to learn the proper use of 'sudo' and other commands to alter them [10:17] what option in xorg.conf ? [10:17] xorg.conf = system file.. Use 'sudo' or its kin to proplery alter the file. [10:17] nick__: then you should not change the owner, just edit the file as root (using gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf) [10:18] thank you thank you! [10:18] i have tried all night to find that one line of code [10:19] :P [10:19] Hmm... linux FUNDAMENTALS [10:19] :) [10:19] much appreciated [10:19] of course if youare on KDE then its not gksudo gedit..... [10:19] ;) [10:19] !sudo [10:19] sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome, XFCE), or !kdesudo (KDE) [10:19] !kdesudo [10:19] In KDE use « kdesudo » (or « kdesu » for Feisty and earlier) to run graphical applications with root privileges when you have to. Never just use "sudo"! | See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to find out why [10:19] oops, right [10:20] so if i am running kde and gnome, i should do one for both? [10:20] or would one do the trick [10:20] either [10:20] ok, great. [10:20] thank you for help [10:20] think about what you jsut said.. :) KDE and gnome BOTH use X.. they dont have theior own xorg.conf files [10:20] linux runs X, X runs KDE/Gnome ... those run the apps... [10:21] ..sorry i am only a few months in [10:21] Linux is all about 'Layers' :) [10:21] Layers of 'legos' building layers that other blocks of software use. [10:21] Legos and Layers and Linux. Oh My :) [10:21] i just switched here from linux mint, and its a little more secure i believe [10:22] Mint has some extra tools and other fetures.. its ok. but i dont use it any more [10:22] lol why not? [10:22] theres nothing that Mint does. that i cant get done in ubuntu/kubuntu myself. [10:22] and i dont care for some of the things mint does by default [10:22] hmm .. well, i suppose i should spend a little more time with practice, huh? [10:23] I dont need the FOrtune command in the terminal .bashrc. and i do NOT need a 'gui' tool just to 'disable the fortune command (not reccomended)' [10:23] Mint focuses on too many trivial things.. they should be working on things that a normal ubuntu user can easially install/use / Not working on yet-another-ubuntu-spinoff/variant.
