al3x-adminAdola: because of recent MSNP change00:18
al3x-adminAdola: It should work with latest svn of kmess | kopete | pidgin |amsn00:19
al3x-adminAdola: I tested kmess && amsn && pidgin00:19
AdolaWell, Pidgin connects, But, I'm using MSN-pecan.00:19

dvheumenm_tadeu: upload is still in progress, de plasma addons aren't updated yet and this (probably) causes the crash00:26
dvheumenm_tadeu: (in case you're wondering :P)00:26
al3x-adminmtadeu: If you cant run "plasma" is because you upgraded without all packages having been uploaded. So, wait 1 hour and update && upgrade ;)00:26

stefan__dvheumen: intrepid packages00:39
dvheumendvheumen: it's because not all packages have been uploaded yet00:39
dvheumenthe kdeplasma-addons are not available yet ... I suspect Plasma tries to use the old packages and crashes00:40
stefan__stefan__: then the rest of plasma should depend on the fitting kdeplasma-addons package, no?00:40
Adolaok so.00:41

gnumdkJontheEchidna: using 4.1.85 kopete.install seems to do the job ;)02:59
kdb424I have a quick question. How do I upgrade kubuntu the distro itself from the command line?03:00
kdb424I know it's not sudo apt-get upgrade03:00
kdb424I did that03:00
gnumdkdist-upgrade?03:00
p_quarlessudo update-manager --dist-upgrade03:00
kdb424Thanks so much!03:00
kdb424I knew there had to be a way03:01
p_quarlesyou need the -d argument too if you're looking for a development release03:01
p_quarlesbut update-manager takes care of changing the repositories as well as installing newer packages03:01
kdb424I'm not, but that will work. Thanks so much!03:01
kdb424Should I see it going to work on the screen or in the terminal? This is through ssh03:02
Guest94288someone know when k3b 2 will be released?03:03
p_quarleskdb424: it's a command line program . . . if that's what you're asking?03:03
kdb424p_quarles: That's what I wanted to know. Nothing happened03:04
kdb424It's on 7.0403:04
p_quarleskdb424: oh, I don't think that came with update-manager03:05
p_quarlesalso, it's no longer supported03:05
kdb424any idea on how to get this up to date ish?03:05
kdb424It was the only disk I had lying arround.03:05
p_quarleskdb424: well, what's the output of: which update-manager03:06
kdb424The program 'update-manager' is currently not installed.  To run 'update-manager' please ask your administrator to install the package 'update-manager'03:07
kdb424-bash: update-manager: command not found03:07
kdb424And if done sudo, nothing03:07
p_quarlesyeah, and the 7.04 repos are down, so that won't work03:07
JontheEchidnaGuest94288: It currently doesn't have a planned release date03:07
p_quarleskdb424: honestly, I'm not sure; if installing a supported edition is an option, that's your best bet03:08
p_quarleskdb424: apart from that, you're looking at manually changing all repositories from feisty to gutsy, then running apt-get dist-upgrade03:08
kdb424I have no way to burn any disks, and it's kinda not likely I can re-install.03:08
kdb424I'm ok with that if someone can give me all of the repos in a PM03:08
p_quarlesthere's nothing to PM; you just need to change the word "feisty" to "gutsy"03:09
kdb424ah, k03:09
p_quarlesedit as root, of course: kdesu kate /etc/apt/sources.list03:09
kdb424Yep. Thanks. I knew that part. I run Ubuntu, but I am not used to the KDE. I'm a gnome guy. I appreciate all of the help.03:10

Guest94288you can compress files with ark03:25
astromme_szrhawaii: You can also do it on the command line: "tar cvzf filename.tar.gz filea fileb directorya" etc.....03:27
szrhawaiiim trying to make a zip instead of a tar.gz03:28
szrhawaiii miss 3.5 beause it had it in dolphins settings03:29
szrhawaiihow do you do a zip from command line03:30
mluserszrhawaii: man zip03:30
szrhawaiiok do i have to put the file cource after that03:31
mluserare you wanting to zip a file or directory?03:32
szrhawaiia file03:33
mluserzip zipname.zip file.txt03:34
szrhawaiiits an avi file03:34
szrhawaiiso it would be zip (file name).zip03:34
mluserNo03:36
szrhawaiiso its exactly how you wrote it03:36
mluserif your file is movie.avi then type this 'zip movie.zip movie.avi03:36
szrhawaiiok03:36
mluserzip <zip filenane> <file to be zipped>03:36
mluserbzip2 is a better option though03:37

turuburuHughCock: it will be finished end of this month, they prepare release parties08:32
darkdelusionsCh1ppy: no I am on the RC08:33
darkdelusionsCh1ppy: Version 4.1.85 (KDE 4.1.85 (KDE 4.2 Beta2))08:33

turuburu08:33
turuburuanyone tried kde-nightly from the other project-neon ppa?08:33
Ch1ppydarkdelusions: Yeah, it worked great on beta 2, hence the irritation becuase I cannot switch back :(08:33
turuburusorry for the extra lines. mistake of irc client08:33
Ch1ppyturuburu: the experimental contains the regular snapshots like betas and RCs, whereas the nightlies are going to be unstable08:34
turuburuok i had really bad experience with nightly. now i get it.08:34
turuburukrandrtray was crashing, konqueror was crashing, etc08:34
turuburuand i could not find weather plugin08:34

DaSkreechturuburu: Nightlies are as stated nightly. If they grab them at the wrong time you get horribly broken stuff08:34
turuburuok i go with experimental. will it use the same .kde configuration directory?08:34
DaSkreechThe experimental pretty much use released tarballs08:35
turuburuis there danger to loose any settins?08:35
DaSkreechturuburu: yes back up if you have data you can lose08:35
DaSkreechturuburu: Oh wait. no but backup anyway08:35
turuburuthen i ll not backup ;)08:35
turuburulet's see08:35
turuburuwhen kde 4.2 will be officially at interpid. begining of feb, or after jaunty release?08:36

turuburuok i made aptitude update, full-upgrade gives me a lot of trouble08:37
turuburui ll make the safe-upgrade first, then full-upgrade.08:37
DaSkreechturuburu: On the day it comes out08:38
turuburusafe-upgrade wants to remove amarok-nightly08:38
turuburuthere is a mess of installation from various ppa and repos08:38
turuburulet's see the power of aptitude08:38
_2see earlier message   ^08:39
turuburui hope there is way to go back to old version if i disable later the experimental repo, right? :)08:39
_2only a remove and reinstall08:39
_2apt* does not downgrad gracefully08:40
_2e08:40
DaSkreechCh1ppy: Techincally you can go back to Beta 208:40
Ch1ppyDaSkreech: Oh?08:40
DaSkreechYou can tell apt a version number to install08:40
Ch1ppyDaSkreech: orly... would it do that nicely? I'm guessing not eh08:41
turuburu-2: to remove completely kde and reinstall, u mean?08:41
darkdelusionsCh1ppy: well looking threw the RC stuff I did find this i know it refers to jaunty but it could be why msn is missing08:41
darkdelusionsMSN support for Kopete will go in to Jaunty before it is released, however.08:41
DaSkreechCh1ppy: Long as you did it for each package :)08:42
_2turuburu yeah   it's the cleanest way to downgrade    probably not the "only" way, but the easiest08:42
Ch1ppyDaSkreech: Ouch -_-. Guess I'm waiting and using aMSN in the interim then :)08:42
DaSkreechIt's having some issues being packaged now it seems08:42
darkdelusionsI fail at coppy and paste08:42
DaSkreechCh1ppy: Cheers! has kmess been packaged?08:42
DaSkreech !info kmess08:42
darkdelusionsCh1ppy: the red tape needed to include libmsn in main has not been cleared yet. MSN support for Kopete will go in to Jaunty before it is released, however.08:42
Ch1ppydarkdelusions: That's Jaunty; it's in Intrepid08:43
turuburui hope krandrtray will work ok when disabling monitors at kde 4.2 experimental08:43
DaSkreechdarkdelusions: ha ha it should go in as soon as the alpha freeze lifts08:43
turuburugenerally new kde 4.2 is very beautiful. it has all what it needs08:43
Ch1ppyDaSkreech: It has. I didn't know about that, will check it out08:43
darkdelusionsMeh I just figured that was why you dont see it but dunno08:44
darkdelusionstired and thinking hurts :)08:44
turuburui suppose also kernel .28 with ext4 will be great :)...anyone installed it at intrepid? did it work without problems? anything broke at system?08:44

darkdelusionstime to sleep i cant type tonight08:49
turuburui especially like plasmoid-weather and teacooker at 4.1. can i compile them for 4.2?08:49
DaSkreechturuburu: no they aren't08:49
DaSkreechYes you probably can08:50
DaSkreechThey may have replacements already08:50
DaSkreechbut if not you can try to recompile08:50
turuburuah. above it says the reason why it wants to remove. it says that all these depends from libplasma2 but this is not installable!?08:50
turuburuany idea about?08:50

ActionParsnipyo yo yo08:56
DaSkreechtbr281: There are no distro upgrades from 8.1008:56
ActionParsnipDaSkreech: could go to jaunty(?)08:56
tbr281what about kde?08:56

Xembalohello, on my test-system i'm using jaunty and updated to kde 4.2 rc yesterday. but now the screen is compleately black or white after login... what could i do?08:57
ActionParsnipDaSkreech: true, but its an option08:57
_2Tm_T ?08:57

DaSkreechActionParsnip: But there is no check for it :-P08:57
tbr281it used to be in the package manager08:57
ActionParsniptbr281: is your system malfunctioning?08:58
DaSkreechtbr281: normal updates to KDE are just updates08:58
turuburuDaSkreech: how come aptitude could not handle this issue, but apt-get -f install could? i thought aptitude is better. as it seems it depends th case,r ight?08:58
Xembaloon terminal, "sudo plasma" brings the message: plasma crashes08:58
ActionParsniptbr281: still is, irc is a text based interface so I give CLI based commands08:58
DaSkreechturuburu: aptitude depends on apt which depends on dpkg08:58

turuburustill not fixed neither icons, neither libplasma209:01
_2turuburu "they cay aptitude is better because of better dependancy resolution"  but i find it to be less affective at actually fixing things than apt.   precisely because it will more easily remove things that are in the way.09:01
XembaloActionParsnip: thanks, i'll try09:01
turuburui have an error message that the same icon at kdeoffice-data-kde4. maybe removing this can help09:01

ActionParsnip_2: ive resolved all issues with apt and very rarely see aptitude used in guides09:02
turuburui think my problems are related to some koffice ppa09:03
turuburui ll try to disable some of repos09:03
turuburuand update upgrade again09:03
_2ActionParsnip right, and one good example would be to attempt to remove exim4  on a debian system  using first aptitude remove   then apt-get remove    the aptitude remove will not remove it.  apt will.09:03
ActionParsnip_2: i dont have aptitude / synaptic etc installed on my system as apt does everything. theres another i removed too. I dont understand why their are so many, apt is geat09:04

tommiHello everyone! Hope Someone could help me out a little... I have this problem with booting Kubuntu 8.10. The progress bar stops several times while booting and doesn't do anything unless I press a key... It's a really anoying problem. All help appreciated.09:30
_2tommi boot with   "nosplash"  and see where it's hanging, and possably why09:31
ActionParsniptommi: boot to recovery console and edit /boot/grub/menu.list so that you have the nosplash option09:31
ActionParsnip!bootoptions | tommi09:31
ubottutommi: For a list and explanation on some of the boot options, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions09:32
ActionParsniptommi: you can then watch the boot instead of a meaningless progress bar09:32
_2more or less09:32
tommiAll right, thanks guys! I'll look into that.09:32
_2without adding verbose you still aren't really watching much.09:33
toki_hey guys im looking for 8.10 support09:33
toki_ubuntu09:33
_2#ubuntu09:33
ActionParsniptoki_: you're in the right place09:33
toki_ok im new to ubuntu and im having resolution probalms drivers are good but it wont reconize my display tried the displayconfig but it wont load in the terminal09:34
mtuxI'm Using KDE 4.2 RC1 on Kubuntu 8.10 (Updated one hour ago) , and Plasma crashes on KDE Login! The backtrace is : http://paste.ubuntu.com/104768/09:34

_2drivers are good but it wont reconize my display <<< sounds like a contradiction to me.09:36

robin0800ActionParsnip: posted as requested still think its 4.2rc that has removed a shared library it worked before last update09:37
ActionParsniptoki_: did yuo gksudo nvidia-settings ?09:38
toki_no09:38
ummelsJust installed KDE 4.2 RC1 on Kubuntu 8.10, too. Seems that Kopete is not compiled with libmsn enabled anymore. Any reasons for this?09:39
ActionParsniptoki_: do so, follow onscreen instructions if you get any, or simply set your resolution09:39
_2ummels i hear that it's some red tape with permission from M$09:39
toki_ok the same thing is happening like when i try to start the app  it says its opening but never does just starts another line09:40
_2ummels "should" be worked out before it goes beta   at least that's what scuttel butt has to say about it09:41
Tm_T_2: ummels: only because there's no new enough release from libmsn09:42
ummels_2: are you referring to jaunty or intrepid?09:42
Tm_Tummels: I think we get that libmsn thingie solved soon, if not, slap me hard09:42
_2ummels intrepid09:42
ActionParsniptoki_: to configure your installed driver you need to get that app running (or manually configure xorg.conf, your choice)09:42
kyle__do you guys reckon jaunty's development packages are worth going to? Because intrepid's bugs are killing me softly09:43
robin0800ummels: delayed approval from microsoft due to christmass09:43

tommiOkay, I rebooted in recovery mode to see why the boot stalls, but there are no error messages, it looks like a perfectly normal boot, except that it stops at random places and I have to press a random key so that the proceeds. I had to press a key at least 20 times to get through the booting... It seems really weird...09:45
kyle__kde4 still has a lot to be ironed out09:45
_2yeah,09:45

Tm_Tbut then again I guess I'm not "normal user"09:46
ActionParsnipruns ok here but i dont use kwin09:47

robin0800Tm_T: Note that due to the holidays, the red tape needed to include libmsn in main has not been cleared yet. MSN support09:51
ummelsrobin0800: But this refers to Jaunty, not to Intrepid. In Intrepid (using packages from the PPA) Kopete with MSN support worked fine with the 4.2 Beta 2 packages, but is broken in 4.2. RC109:52
robin0800ummels: correct so is firefox install09:53
Tm_Trobin0800: aye, IIRC nothing to do with MS09:55
toki_ok i see what i need to do but how do i do it09:55
ame!nvidia09:55
ubottuFor Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto09:55
Tm_T_2: you were talking nonsense to DaSkreech09:55
robin0800Tm_T: msn is microsoft09:55
DaSkreechkyle__: what needs ironing out?09:56
_2Tm_T the typos ?     heh  ok.09:56
Tm_Trobin0800: yes, but, bah, still that issue isn't involving MS (:09:57
robin0800Tm_T:  libmsn is it needs approval09:58
Tm_Trobin0800: it needs approval to get into main, but not from MS IIRC09:58
Tm_Trobin0800: feel free to prove me wrong, as I might not know everything (it happens I heard)09:58
DaSkreechEverything in main should only need approval from one company to get there09:59
Tm_Texactly09:59
robin0800Tm_T: red tape needed to include libmsn in main has not been cleared yet think that means msn aproval?09:59
_2red tape     hmmmm10:00
Tm_Trobin0800: no, that means Ubuntu devels find it good enough to be in ain10:00
Tm_Tmain10:00
_2red tape != yellow ribbon10:01
_2everything in main should be gpl'd    no?10:02
_2or is that debian mentality ?10:03
Tm_Thow libmsn is not gpl?10:03
_2i didn't say it wasn't     did i?10:03
Tm_Tno you didn't, did I say you did? :--P10:03
ummelsSo what's the problem with the KDE 4.2RC1 packages for Intrepid? I have libmsn0.1 installed from PPA, but kopete doesn't seem linked to it.10:04
_2i only asked if main was 100% gpl10:04
_2you implied that i implied or insenuated or something insane10:04
Tm_T_2: I always do10:04
robin0800Tm_T: whose is the eed tape?10:04
robin0800red10:05
Tm_Trobin0800: in this case, I do not know exactly who's stopping us, prolly libmsn needs some polishing so Canonical can say "we support it"10:05
_2ummels it's not.   as far as i can tell10:05
robin0800Tm_T: why mention msn then?10:06
Tm_Trobin0800: MSN support in Kopete depends on libmsn these days10:06
ActionParsnipcould just run msn messenger via wine (not live messenger)10:07
Tm_Tummels: 1) that libmsn from whatever ppa is old, so may break with latest MSN server upgrades10:07
Tm_TActionParsnip: it's not the same (:10:07
ActionParsnipTm_T: depends what you need from the protocol10:08
Tm_TActionParsnip: or client10:08
_2could grab raw packets from the protocal headers and hope they are yours....    err maybe not.10:08
ummelsTm_T: So Kopete from RC1 needs a newer version of libmsn than Kopete from Beta2?10:09
Tm_Tummels: no, prolly even that Kopete from beta2 fails now10:09
ActionParsnipTm_T: exactly, so its not always a bad choice, it has benefits :)10:09
ummelsTm_T: yesterday it worked just fine10:10
Tm_Tummels: anyway, I'm poking fellows if this could be fixed soon and all10:10
ummelsAnyway, if MSN support is broken it should be in the release announcement (in the Intrepid section, not just in the Jaunty section)10:10
ummelsTm_T: Thanks a lot10:11
Tm_Tummels: I don't think it was planned to be broken (:)10:11
ummelshehe10:11
ActionParsnipcould just drop msn like dropping microsoft's OS10:12

_2what kind of default fork bomb protection does hardy or intrepid have ?10:15
toki_i cant get the displayconfig or nvidia settings to run from the terminal10:15

_2toki_ well try it, and follow it with a test of the gui.  startx10:17
DaSkreech_2: install spork10:17
ActionParsniptoki_: nvidia-settings needs an x server to run10:17
ActionParsniptoki_: try a reboot10:17
_2if it gets you into xorg then you can run the other commands10:18
_2DaSkreech spork ?10:18
DaSkreechBetter protection than a fork10:18
DaSkreechI would tell you to remove FUSE to assist with the bomb part10:19

ActionParsniptoki_: sudo apt-get clean; sudo apt-get --reinstall install nvidia-settings10:20

dr_willisa lot of other peoples have issues with ugradingubuntu and nvidia drivers..  - ibe heard of no issues from upgrading to kde 4.2 however10:39

DaSkreechQrawl: install kdebase-workspace-data10:43
Takahanika: do you use gtk-qt-engine-kde410:44
_2ka i would think 10m of ram used by xorg a leak.10:44
Takahanika: i suspect it to be the leaker10:44
QrawlDaSkreech: ok, I dont want to mess anything up.  I installed Kubuntu from scratch, then added the experimental line to my sources, then upgraded.  thats all I did10:44

ummelsmok0: what happens if you choose "Failsafe" and start KDE by "startkde"?11:32
* mok0 tries ummels suggestion11:33
mok0ummels: ah, I can't do that, X is already running11:34
ummelsi mean if u select "Failsafe" from KDM?11:34
ummelsnot from console11:34
mok0ummels: I'm thrown out and return to the login screen11:35
mok0ummels: guess it's not really failsafe ;-)11:35
ummelsokay... what you can also try is log in as a new user, since it's often a problem with config files11:36

ActionParsnipsofiane: that may have some answers13:04
ActionParsnipmarius__: you will have to restart your x server to apply the settings, once you get the decorators to stay after an x restart, add a script to your !startup to run emeral --replace13:04
marius__thanks, but where exctly in the xorg.conf? at the end? or..?13:06
sofianei have istall the skype in my ubuntu it's works but my probleme is the microphone wen i speak they can't hear my voice13:06

anselmei mean from kde to gnome13:08
anselmeand vis versa13:08
marius__ActionParsnip, is it ok if I place those lines at the end of xorg.conf or must I place them in a specific section of that file?13:08
anselmedoesnt anyone know13:08

ActionParsnipaapzak: it will lock but never unlocks for me, never has13:11
aapzakActionParsnip: I like the whole kde thing, including almost everything and till now my screenlock has been working just fine13:11
ActionParsnipaapzak: id log a bug and disable the screen locking at all13:12
aapzakkubuntu RC site says noto to file bug reports, for once I'll follow orders13:12
francisc1701hi! why is it that Amarok (1.4) can't tell me the length of my aac songs?13:13
aapzakI guess this is why you should not use experimental stuff at work, now I can't lock which basicly means I cannot leave my desk :)13:13
aapzakgood thing I just went to the bathroom13:14
marius__k, I added the lines in the screen section, restarted the xserver, opened again xorg.conf to make sure the lines are there....but nope...the problem is still there13:18
ActionParsnipmarius__: its something like that13:18
ActionParsnipmarius__: you need some xorg.conf extra bits13:18
marius__k, another problem: how do I add more than 2 desktops? that option is blocked in cssm and in the default desktop manager...I add 4 desktops but I only get the default(2) after applying13:19
ActionParsnipmarius__: i think you need: sudo apt-get install xserver-xgl13:19
ActionParsnipmarius__: in ccsm you need to make your desktop width 4 instead of 2, you currently have a "flippy"13:20
marius__yes but the "Desktops number" option is blocked in cssm13:20
ActionParsnipmarius__: open the compiz config settings (ccsm), go to general options, desktop size, and set horizontal virtual size to 413:21
marius__right13:22
marius__that worked13:22
marius__thanks13:22
marius__a lot13:22
ActionParsnipnp man13:22
ActionParsnipyou got 4 desktops and windows decorations with emerald now?13:23

marius__k, thnks a lot13:35
aapzakok, seems like I'm missing most of my dialogs, anyone know a dependency which might have been missed?13:36
aapzakI cannot get the quit menu either13:37
mathieuaapzak: maybe try re-doing a dist-upgrade ?13:41
mathieuand restart kdm completely13:41
aapzakI did a normal upgrade, might try dist-upgrade but seems unlogical to me. I did a reboot13:42
Picidist-upgrades do NOT upgrade to a new release, rather they include packages that have new or changed dependencies.13:43
aapzakPici: ah! in that case it might be useful after all13:44
mathieuyea exactly, might fix the broken package13:44
aapzaknope, nothing new :(13:44
mathieuif ALL else fails you may always try to backup your .kde folders and start with a fresh config13:44
aapzakmathieu: that might help also, you're right. Something to try tonight13:45
aapzakafter I'm done working13:45
aapzakRC1 looks great apart from my minor problems13:45
aapzakkubuntu people , my problems are gone, I have no idea why13:52
Tm_Tgood13:52
aapzakhey there :)13:52
aapzakcould have been 2 things: invoking the run command dialog through right clicking the desktop, or the dist-upgrade13:53
aapzakdist-upgrade said it did nothing, I believe him13:54
aapzakanyway, thanks for the time and nice talks, back to work for me now!13:54

ZehavaRobertLaptop I'm not sure then.  If you've told my.cnf where the directory is but it still won't read it  I'm lost, hopefully someone else will know more to try14:26
RobertLaptopIn syslog it is tiring to use the new folder.  It attempts to open a test file in the folder with write and it fails to do so but for the life of me I can't figure out why.14:28

ubottudave_V: To make programs start up automatically when you log into your KDE session, run all programs that you want to be started and close all other programs, then select 'Save Session' in the K menu. Alternatively, create a !symlink to the wanted program in ~/.kde/Autostart - See !boot for starting non-interactive programs at boot15:30
dave_VI would think there is a menu  System->Administration15:30

dave_VAction and ubottu:  I am not talking about services for my user..  I am talking system wide services like nfs,firewall,automounter,15:33
lamuractionparnsip: no that is not what i meant15:33
ActionParsnip1francisc1701: its fairly redundant as the data is still on the partition, you could just make a folder and symlink it15:33
lamuri want to make a virtual drive to mount an iso file15:33
ActionParsnip1francisc1701: i guess you could even write a boot sector to it if you sweet talk to grub enough15:33
delicowa@lamur: use the loop mounting method15:34

dwidmannamerigo: if you haven't played with things, I would assume alsa would be default ... not sure where it's sound devices are, maybe /dev/snd?15:56

sonicI have a question for the kubuntu developers.  I often see statements in the kde pre-release announcements (kde4 rc1 for example) that users should not file bug reports against them.  Now I understand that kubuntu does not officially support them and thats what that statement means, but why not suggest that bugs be filed to bugs.kde.org?18:31
SalzeLazersK: You want the taskbar to only show the windows of the current desktop? Do I understand that correctly?18:31
White_Pelicanshould I assume the abilty to change the splash screen is still broken?18:31
LazersKYes.18:31
sonicotherwise if no one files bugs then that defeats the purpose of a release candidate does it not?18:32
DaSkreechsonic: By all means please do so18:32
SalzeLazersK: You can configure that by clicking on the cashew (upper right corner) of the taskbar, then right click on the window list.18:32

SalzeYou don't have the window list?18:35
LazersKi don't know what you mean?18:35
sonicDaSkreech: and I do, Im just saying that you should instead include a statement that refers people to bugs.kde.org18:35
LazersKright clicking on the cashew, brings up add widgets and such.18:35
DaSkreechNormally there is something of that ilk18:35
SalzeRight click on the window list - not on the cashew.18:35

PSiL0with kde 4.1.3, is it possible for firefox and banshee to share sound?  If one is using the alsa driver, the other cannot until the application is closed20:07
hyper__chworks with ff and amarok20:08
p_quarleselenaw: the bluetooth utility for KDE is kdebluetooth20:08
PSiL0hyper_ch: amarok controls my larger library ;)20:09
PSiL0hyper_ch: I use banshee whenever I go to work20:09
PSiL0hyper_ch: amarok 1.4.10+mysql is great for my large library stored on my external..20:10
hyper__chPSiL0: I use amarok 2 meanwhile20:14
DaSkreechis 2.1out?20:14
PSiL02.0.1.1 I believe20:15
DaSkreechah right that wsa it20:17
neothecatgood morning.  i just installed kde4 rc2... where is the kcontrol?  i can't configure keyboard shortcuts or anything like that.  or the windows.  thanks.20:18
hyper__chamarok nightly from the neon project is recommended by me20:18
DaSkreechneothecat: No one has ported kcontrol to KDE4 yet20:19
|Yves|hi,i I have 2 observations from the kde4.2 rc1 packages on amd64: kdebluetooth is missing and so are the google gadgets20:20
DaSkreechas I recall Chani was working on a plasmoid20:20
ummelsneothecat: all settings are in "System Settings" now20:20
elenawp_quarles: ok, do you know any good howtos or instruction about kdebluetooth?20:21
DaSkreechfor some definition of all settings20:21
PSiL0I tried amarok beta 2, and I didn't like the lack of implementing labels nor the cumbersome way of navigating through my collection, one with quite a few compilations (read: various artists)20:22
neothecatummels:  i go to the main menu button, go to settings, but i do not see keyboard bindings or anything like that.  perhaps i am missing a package20:22
PSiL0The only thing I did like was the use of mysql in amarok2, which beats the pants of sqlite in terms of speed when searching through large collections20:22
ummelsneothecat: Don't u have "Keyboard & Mouse" under "Computer Administration" in System Settings?20:23
PSiL0however, there is a way to implement mysql in amarok 1.4.x, so I'll still with that until amarok 2 matures20:23
|Yves|I see a lot of flicker after logging in from kdm, the screen background changes several times after login, anyone else?20:23
* DaSkreech hugs PSiL020:23
PSiL0lol20:24
luigiciao20:25
PSiL0funny thing happened, it seems like banshee and firefox can play nice now... weird... all I did the other day was to install other alsa packages.. I do recall there was an update this morning, although I thought it was libcups.... hmm20:25
PSiL0damn, this cold is wrecking havoc on my memory, lol20:26
neothecatummels:  i do not even have a "System Settings"....20:26
ummelsneothecat: Didn't you just say you have them when you open the menu?20:27
LazersKBack for a second.20:27
LazersKWheres this windows lsit then?20:27
ummelsneothecat: you can start them from a console by "systemsettings" btw20:27
neothecatummels: don't have that command either.  which explains my problem :)20:28
ummelsneothecat: install kubuntu-desktop then ;-)20:29
LazersKHm. I can't find any windows lists. x_X20:29
neothecatummels:  i have regular ubuntu installed.  i just wanted to play with kde4.  is that going to cause any problems?20:29
ummelsneothecat: right, just install "systemsettings" then20:30
neothecatummels: wow.  that's the package name.  who thought it would be simple.20:30
ummelsneothecat: which package did u install to get KDE4 then?20:30
ummelsneothecat: i don't know if u'll have every module then though20:31
DaSkreechneothecat: What version of Kubuntu are you using?20:31

DaSkreech!hi | yoritomo20:32
ubottuyoritomo: Hi! Welcome to #kubuntu!20:32
ummelsneothecat: To install all of KDE you can install the "kde" package20:32
yoritomohow to replace the horrible start screen image in intrepid kubuntu by a personnal image ?20:33
neothecatok, thanks.  i will do that.  btw, install systemsettings did the trick. thanks.20:33
ummelsneothecat: welcome20:33
DaSkreechyoritomo: Which image ?20:33
yoritomoyou when kde starting, it is the coloured icons showing the start evolution, and the background is a ugly B/W image20:34
ummelsyoritomo: Try System Settings -> Appearence -> Splash Screen20:35
DaSkreechyoritomo: Yeah :020:36
DaSkreech:-)20:36
ummelsyoritomo: Change it to none if you want. To keep the icons but change the background is a bit more difficult20:36
yoritomoho really?20:38
LazersKHm, using KDE my system CPu stays around 60% usage20:38
LazersKWhy?20:38
hallownameLazersK: run 'top' and see what's using so much CPU20:39
LazersKtop?20:40
ummelsyoritomo: The default theme lies in /usr/share/kde4/apps/ksplash/Themes/Default20:40
LazersKAh, firefox20:40
hallownameLazersK: run konsole (terminal), type 'top', press enter20:40
LazersKFirefox is such a memory hog. >_>20:40
ummelsI guess you could copy that to $HOME/.kde/share/apps/ksplash/Themes and make ur own theme20:40
hallownameLazersK: yes, but still should not use 60% of cpu :/20:40
LazersK29%20:41
DaSkreechLazersK: yes it is20:41
LazersK39% *20:41
LazersKCan amorak play m4a files?20:42
hallownameLazersK: with the right codecs... im not sure what package it's in however...20:42
LazersKHuh.20:43
ummelsLazersK: installing "kubuntu-restricted-extras" might do the trick20:43
LazersKWhat wil lthat do>?20:43
hallownameLazersK: it's extra codecs and other not-so-obviously legal files...20:44
ummelsLazersK: install some codes and other non-free packages like Java and Flash20:44
LazersKAh.20:44
LazersKOK.20:44

yoritomoummels , thanks it is really what i wanted20:53
DaSkreechLazersK: Depends on what you are doing but I would say 512 should be workable20:53
ummelsyoritomo: You could try the "Get New Themes..." button in System Settings -> Appearence -> Splash Screen20:55
ummelsyoritomi: also20:55
