| DaSkreech | ibeekman: uname -a | 00:29 |
| geraldo | by people | 00:29 |
| ibeekman | right so that gets me the kernel version right | 00:29 |
| ibeekman | but what about glibc | 00:29 |
| DaSkreech | ibeekman: and apt-cache policy glibc | 00:29 |
| cbwcjw | gorgonizer: still no new updates :( | 00:29 |
| cbwcjw | gorgonizer: i take that back, theres some X stuff from the PPA | 00:31 |
| gorgonizer | cbwcjw: I had some earlier, some libxine and xoserver updates :) | 00:31 |
| ibeekman | DaSkreech: it didn't work: http://tinypaste.com/3600b | 00:33 |
| alarm | for kde4.2 i have to check also "Unsupported updates" in the adept software source ? | 00:33 |
| kendrick | if someone wants to install KDE 4.2 on a GNOME Ubuntu system, what package do they install (after adding the 4.2 repo to their Ubuntu 8.10 packages list)? | 00:33 |
| cbwcjw | alarm: just open konsole and run sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade | 00:34 |
| kendrick | "kubuntu-desktop" or somesuch? will that suffice? | 00:34 |
| gorgonizer | ibeekman: I think it will be apt-cache policy glibc-2.7-1 | 00:34 |
| DaSkreech | !findglibc | 00:34 |
| ubottu | Found: glibc-doc, libc6, libc6-pic, glibc-source | 00:34 |

| jordo2323 | I recently updated my system and now my sound doesn't work. I have rebooted twice and still nothing. Anyone have any ideas? | 00:36 |
| kendrick | odd. i fire up krunner. i type "kons[enter]" and a Konsole appears | 00:36 |
| jordo2323 | Or how do I test? | 00:36 |
| kendrick | but then, even though the Konsole appeared, i get an error from Krunning saying it can't find /usr/bin/konsole | 00:36 |
| cbwcjw | PSiL0: I found what causes that issue that we had | 00:36 |
| kendrick | KDEInit could not launch '/usr/bin/konsole'. ??? | 00:36 |
| PSiL0 | cbwcjw: what was it? | 00:36 |
| gorgonizer | kendrick: I get a similar error, but the app always loads, so I ignore the error.. | 00:36 |
| cbwcjw | PSiL0: Dbus isnt giving it the correct permissions. Let me get the bug report | 00:37 |
| kendrick | well, the error is irritating :) | 00:37 |
| kendrick | oh great | 00:37 |
| kendrick | and now it's stuck on my screen, and i cannot close it. and it's preventing me from bringing up krunner. | 00:37 |
| mefisto__ | it's as if the error reporting is quicker than the program launching | 00:37 |
| * kendrick kills | 00:38 | |
| alarm | W: GPG error: http://ppa.launchpad.net intrepid Release a public key is needed for http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-experimental/ubuntu | 00:38 |

| DaSkreech | kendrick: You have a konsole type krunner | 00:38 |
| PSiL0 | cbwcjw: cool, thanx | 00:38 |
| kendrick | yeah i brought it back | 00:38 |
| DaSkreech | Then konsole will crash and you can use the krunner to open a konsole which will cause krunner to crash... | 00:38 |
| kendrick | i didn't get it the FIRST time i laucnhed a konsole | 00:39 |
| PSiL0 | cbwcjw: actually, i kind of forgot my query.. was it regarding plasmoids crashing? | 00:39 |

| alarm | ok i risk it | 00:45 |
| earle | :) | 00:46 |
| earle | good luck | 00:46 |
| ibeekman | DaSkreech: so thats the version of glibc? it looks like mine is 2.8. If the compiler I am installing wants glibc2.3-6 with kernel version 2.6 will I be ok with 2.8? | 00:46 |
| ibeekman | (I code in Fortran btw, and am a windows convert which is why i don't know this kind of stuff) | 00:47 |
| DaSkreech | 2.3 ? | 00:47 |
| DaSkreech | I guess that should work | 00:48 |
| futuresoon | anybody successfully rotating cube on kubuntu 4.2? | 00:48 |
| earle | Hm. Is there a way to move windows between desktops without involving the window menu? | 00:48 |
| earle | futuresoon: yep | 00:48 |
| futuresoon | earle: do you zoom in and out and have plasma running and some plasmoids? | 00:48 |
| earle | futuresoon: I can do all of that, yes | 00:49 |
| alarm | cbwcjw, for some strange reason i still have kde4.1.... | 00:49 |
| earle | Hey, crazy. My desktop cashew has vanished. | 00:49 |
| futuresoon | earle: you don't just mean the orthogonal view where you can ctrl-alt-left or right to switch desktops---you mean actually dragging holding viewing rotating the cube huh? | 00:50 |
| alarm | thats what i've seen when kde was loading | 00:50 |
| earle | futuresoon: yep | 00:50 |
| alarm | how can i check kdes version ? | 00:50 |
| cbwcjw | alarm: Run it again, sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 00:50 |
| futuresoon | alarm: open konquerer and look for about | 00:50 |
| alarm | version 4.1.3 | 00:51 |
| alarm | cbwcjw, thats what i did, it downloaded like 60-80 new files and told me that i need to restart | 00:51 |
| alarm | let me try again | 00:51 |
| cbwcjw | alarm: Alrighty. Afterwards, do what futuresoon said. | 00:51 |
| alarm | i did. it says 4.1.3 | 00:52 |
| ibeekman | DaSkreech: it looks like I have glibc2.8 from what you told me to do above: | 00:52 |
| alarm | strange, new packages are being installed again | 00:52 |
| ibeekman | DaSkreech: http://tinypaste.com/64b8a | 00:52 |

| === jw is now known as Guest50968 | ||
| alarm | ok i wait till they are being downloaded, in the meanwhile what i've noticed with kde3.5 and 4.1 now on my laptop. when kubuntu is load(stage with the progress bar), OR when kde is loading, the system stops. as i do not see any activity | 00:53 |
| earle | Aha! Active Desktop Borders, that's what I wanted. | 00:53 |
| alarm | it goes on again and boots when i press enter | 00:53 |
| earle | Aw, it doesn't trigger the cube, though. | 00:53 |
| alarm | unfortunatelly i dont know at which points it freezes and waits for a key to be pressed to go on | 00:54 |
| earle | I'll file a bug... | 00:54 |
| ibeekman | oh well i guess I'll continue the install and hold my breath | 00:54 |
| kendrick | ugh | 00:54 |
| cbwcjw | earle: Settings -> Desktop -> Desktop effects -> General. Make sure BEFORE you file a bug that effect for dekstop switching is on Desktop Cube | 00:55 |
| gorgonizer | cbwcjw: damn, more kernel upgrades :( | 00:56 |
| cbwcjw | gorgonizer: Figures | 00:56 |
| earle | cbwcjw: ooh. Thanks for correcting me before I made even more of an ass of myself. | 00:57 |
| cbwcjw | So Konversation > xchat | 00:57 |
| thief` | could i ask why kubuntu is better than gnome ubuntu? is there much diff? | 00:57 |
| cbwcjw | earle: Just wanted to make sure :) Im holding off on bugs, im just making a list. | 00:57 |
| khalidmian_ | got dc sorry i need help in trying to figure out whay adept doesnt show results for any search i put | 00:57 |
| earle | cbwcjw: Ah, no wonder I didn't see it - the Screen Edges tab directed me to Window Behavior. I think maybe the bug here is that Window Behavior doesn't mention where *this* option is. | 00:58 |
| cbwcjw | thief: You have acsess to all the same programs from the downloads and repositories, but it uses a completley different desktop environment. Currentlly, ubuntu is more stable. | 00:58 |
| === khalidmian_ is now known as khalidmian | ||
| khalidmian | i need help in trying to figure out whay adept doesnt show results for any search i put | 00:59 |
| alarm | cbwcjw, one serious question, why is mysql server installed ? | 00:59 |
| cbwcjw | earle: sometimes the settings manager takes getting used to | 00:59 |
| futuresoon | khalidmian: apt-cache search some-package-name <-- that help? | 00:59 |
| futuresoon | cbwcjw: you guys talking about the compiz config settings manager? | 00:59 |
| gorgonizer | alarm: mysql-server is used by akondi, if I remember correctly.. | 00:59 |
| khalidmian | futuresoon i want to rebuild xapien index | 00:59 |
| futuresoon | khalidmian: sorry i don't use xapien | 01:00 |
| cbwcjw | futuresoon: No. | 01:00 |
| alarm | ok, has to be removed in the future, useless resources i guess | 01:00 |
| earle | futuresoon: KDE's. | 01:00 |
| khalidmian | or renew /rebuilt my adept index | 01:01 |
| futuresoon | now i just switched to "use desktop cube" and i was really thinking that would fix my problem but nope | 01:01 |
| gorgonizer | alarm: akondi is one of the new technological backends used in KDE 4, which needs mysql server at the moment.. | 01:01 |
| cbwcjw | alarm: Just remove with adept or synaptic | 01:01 |
| cbwcjw | But keep it for that reason* | 01:01 |
| futuresoon | so i have it set in 1) kde's settings manager and 2) compiz-config-settings manager and still no joy | 01:01 |
| alarm | gorgonizer, i would say new technological backend in 4.2 as 4.1 worked without any sql server | 01:02 |
| khalidmian | back to reinstalling shitty kubuntu | 01:02 |

| gorgonizer | alarm: I would agree, but I believe that akondi has come some way since 4.1, and now needs the database.. | 01:03 |
| earle | futuresoon: Compiz isn't currently working in 4.2. You can use kwin's builtin effects - Desktop settings in System Settings. | 01:03 |
| faileas | khalidmian: if you don't like it, why install it ? | 01:03 |
| faileas | there's other DEs yanno | 01:03 |
| alarm | if you dont see me within a few mins, it seems that i am fighting with console :) | 01:03 |
| futuresoon | earle: oh awesome, thanks | 01:03 |
| DaSkreech | alarm: Still on KDE 4.1 ? | 01:03 |
| alarm | now upgrading | 01:03 |
| DaSkreech | earle: Without using the Kmenu ? | 01:03 |
| alarm | if you will let me restart :P | 01:03 |
| earle | futuresoon: this is where I was at yesterday :) | 01:03 |
| DaSkreech | thief`: It's better if you like it | 01:04 |
| earle | DaSkreech: oh, did you mean the per-desktop thing? If so, I found the screen edges settings. | 01:04 |
| BadHorsie | Hi, I copied one item from the main menu to the desktop, altered its description and is removed from the menu where it was, any ideas why this happens and how to restore it? | 01:05 |
| futuresoon | earle: so tell me the future---do i feel good tomorrow? lol | 01:05 |
| DaSkreech | earle: I was about to say I use alt+F3 but you can also drag and drop windows on the desktop pager | 01:05 |
| earle | futuresoon: after a bit of fiddling around, you find yourself quite happy and comfortable ;) | 01:05 |
| cbwcjw | I love 4.2 personally. | 01:06 |
| earle | DaSkreech: Right - I turned on Active Desktop Borders for window-dragging loveliness | 01:06 |
| zicada | i think ive gotten firefox to look pretty damn good on KDE4.2 now | 01:07 |
| zicada | http://zic.darktech.org/zicada/firefox_fonts.png | 01:07 |
| zicada | finally got the fonts to be fairly identical too | 01:07 |
| earle | eww gnome :P | 01:07 |
| DaSkreech | earle: ok that's pretty but sloooow :) | 01:07 |
| zicada | well, gotta have firefox | 01:07 |
| zicada | nothing beats it | 01:07 |
| BadHorsie | haha, i was watching Her Morning Elegance yesterday zicada | 01:08 |
| earle | DaSkreech: you can set the speed to fast, very fast or even "instant" | 01:08 |
| cbwcjw | zicada: thats awesome. | 01:08 |
| DaSkreech | earle: Sloooooooooooow | 01:08 |
| zicada | thread here with info: http://forum.kde.org/how-to-integrate-firefox-into-kde-t-17786.html | 01:08 |
| cbwcjw | I like konquerer, but I wish it had some flash support eh? and thanks zicada, i was about to type in the URL in the picture ahaha | 01:08 |
| earle | DaSkreech: eh? turn the delay off then | 01:08 |
| DaSkreech | earle: involves mouse. Slooooooow :) | 01:08 |
| zicada | yeah konqueror is decent, but the flash stuff is driving me crazy | 01:09 |
| * DaSkreech is a keyboard elitist | 01:09 | |
| gorgonizer | tend to use firefox, then opera, then konqueror, then IE (for giggles) | 01:09 |
| zicada | and it doesnt work with fckeditor for some reason | 01:09 |
| earle | DaSkreech: get a better keyboard | 01:09 |
| DaSkreech | hi alarm | 01:09 |
| DaSkreech | earle: yeah :-( | 01:09 |
| alarm | ok , kde4.2 installed, impressed of the taskbar !!! although the colour has to change :P | 01:09 |
| earle | for example, my keyboard, which has a pointing stick :) | 01:09 |
| anom01y | is it worth upgrading from ubuntu 8.04 to 8.10 ?? | 01:09 |
| thief` | so k and g are basically the same? is one better? i know looks don't mean much... but what do ya think? | 01:09 |
| earle | thinkpad ftw | 01:09 |
| alarm | and btw, what is akonadi ? something needed ? | 01:09 |
| gorgonizer | alarm: http://pim.kde.org/akonadi/ | 01:10 |
| DaSkreech | alarm: not if you don't use mail or contacts | 01:10 |
| earle | haha what: dragging a window between desktops only goes between the two non-empty desktops on my cube | 01:11 |
| alarm | okie | 01:11 |
| DaSkreech | thief`: Gnome's way of thinking is to give the user as few choices as possible KDE is to give the user as many as is reasonable | 01:11 |
| alarm | i suppose the blue colour cannot change right (of the taskbar) | 01:11 |
| earle | oh, no it isn't I see | 01:11 |
| BadHorsie | so, is kubuntu supposed to delete the source item from a shortcut once i alter the "Description" property from the icon menu on the child copy? | 01:11 |
| mefisto__ | alarm: but the new kmail/calendar/contacts pim stuff is pretty nice in kde 4.2 | 01:11 |
| earle | because the pager in in 2x2 mode. hmm. | 01:11 |
| DaSkreech | alarm: Right click the desktop -> Appearance settings -> choose a theme | 01:11 |
| * earle fixies | 01:12 | |
| earle | aww yeah, that's pretty slick | 01:12 |
| alarm | never used kmail/calender/contacts . thunderbird was always enough for me | 01:12 |
| alarm | so i suppose akonadi could leave :) | 01:12 |
| earle | talking of blue colors! I never saw a blue shadow before :) | 01:12 |
| * earle would like to change that. | 01:13 | |
| mefisto__ | alarm: me too, but I think kmail is better than thunderbird now | 01:13 |
| gorgonizer | I am quite impressed with the new kmail.. | 01:13 |
| DaSkreech | alarm: Give Kmail a try at least | 01:13 |
| DaSkreech | They did a lot of work on it | 01:13 |
| gorgonizer | though I used the previous version on KDE 3.5.. | 01:13 |
| cbwcjw | gorgonizer: I am too. also, is there a way to get flash to work in konquerer thats pretty simple? | 01:13 |
| mefisto__ | alarm: and the blue taskbar, you can go to desktop settings and install new themes to change the taskbar colours | 01:14 |
| gorgonizer | cbwcjw: let me have a look ;) | 01:14 |
| alarm | DaSkreech, i will, as for the themes, there is only oxygen to choose, i suppose i got to install some manualy to change the taskbar | 01:14 |
| DaSkreech | Really? | 01:14 |
| DaSkreech | Hmm | 01:14 |
| DaSkreech | Should be quite a lot actaully | 01:14 |
| alarm | DaSkreech, yeap , just noticed also | 01:14 |
| DaSkreech | in anycase click new theme and you should have some more | 01:15 |
| earle | zicada: ha ha, I spot a /b/tard :) | 01:15 |
| alarm | yeap thats it | 01:15 |
| BadHorsie | wow, I got the icon back miraculously, I changed once again from the icon on the desktop, changed in the general from "ooo-calc" to "oo-calc" and my Spreadsheet icon is back in my menu | 01:15 |
| BadHorsie | this makes no sense. | 01:15 |
| cbwcjw | zicada: How did you fix your GTK tabs? | 01:16 |
| earle | oh boy oh boy | 01:16 |
| * earle finds the new pager autohide option | 01:16 | |
| earle | *panel even | 01:16 |
| cbwcjw | earle: Giant pager with 4 desktops? | 01:16 |
| gorgonizer | cbwcjw: can you not watch any flash videos in konqueror? | 01:16 |
| earle | cbwcjw: ha, no, just a typo on my part | 01:16 |
| cbwcjw | earle: haha | 01:16 |
| cbwcjw | gorgonizer: Yea. Im using the adobe flash plugin from adobe.com | 01:17 |
| earle | and resizable (height) panels too... it's like KDE 3.5 came back in style! | 01:17 |
| cbwcjw | earle: I love it :D | 01:17 |
| earle | Hmm, I need to swap my cube control keys... I expect left and right to go the other way. | 01:18 |
| gorgonizer | cbwcjw: I installed flashplugin-nonfree from the repos, and I am happily watching http://www.escapistmagazine.com/videos/view/zero-punctuation/525-Gears-of-War-2 in konqueor now.. | 01:18 |
| alarm | nice :) | 01:19 |
| cbwcjw | gorgonizer: ahahaha! I saw that. Alright | 01:19 |
| alarm | ehm , how much does it cost ? :P | 01:19 |
| gorgonizer | £20... | 01:19 |
| gorgonizer | per browser.. | 01:19 |
| alarm | cool, fixed and my desktop, finally some decent desktop back :) | 01:21 |

| wers | how do I make fonts of gtk apps look like the ones of kde apps? i think, it has something to do with rendering | 01:22 |
| alarm | wers, system settings | 01:23 |
| cbwcjw | wers: http://forum.kde.org/how-to-integrate-firefox-into-kde-t-17786.html | 01:23 |
| alarm | appearance -> gtk styles | 01:23 |
| PSiL0 | wers: after installing some of the gtk-theme packs from the link cbwcjw gave you, appearance->gtkstyles.. | 01:23 |
| PSiL0 | whoops | 01:23 |
| PSiL0 | :) | 01:23 |
| wers | alarm, i'm using my kde fonts in gtk applications but they still don't look the same | 01:24 |
| alarm | the key sequence 'del' is ambicious :P | 01:24 |
| wers | wait imma look at the link :D | 01:24 |
| PSiL0 | cbwcjw: If you are out of luck like I was, I would follow all of those steps and install lxappearance | 01:24 |
| cbwcjw | PSiL0: It worked for me actaully :D | 01:24 |
| PSiL0 | wers: the icons are here: http://kims-area.com/?q=node/62 | 01:25 |
| PSiL0 | cbwcjw: it never worked consistantly, using lxappearance, I get to choose the theme and icon pack to use and viola! | 01:26 |
| wers | PSiL0, oooh. i set it with lxappearance? | 01:26 |
| wers | while on kde4? | 01:26 |
| PSiL0 | wers: well, I used it only after the folders/icons never showed up.. toolbars and sliders worked with gtk styles | 01:27 |
| PSiL0 | wers: yeah, works in 4.1.3, 4.1.4, and now 4.2.0 | 01:27 |
| === fernando is now known as Guest96307 | ||

| Guest96307 | n | 01:28 |
| Guest96307 | Olá! | 01:28 |
| PSiL0 | alarm: I don't have that installed... I installed gtk-qt-engine .. maybe that was my problem.. heh.. | 01:28 |
| alarm | me neither thats why it looks strange | 01:29 |
| PSiL0 | wait, I think I removed it when something weird was happening in the gtk styles menu | 01:29 |
| PSiL0 | anyways, like the commercials, I just set it in lxappearance and forget it | 01:29 |
| wers | wow. that's interesting. hehe | 01:29 |
| wers | i'm on 4.2 | 01:29 |

| wesley__ | I wanted to ask is it possible to enter an chat room that normally uses monkeyirc aplet ? | 01:53 |

| cbwcjw | 4.8 GB = Giant swap :D | 02:07 |
| Tortola | 2 Gb and 1.3 used | 02:07 |

| gorgonizer | Tortola: oh, so looking less like a memory issue then.. did you try disabling the skip frames option in VLC? | 02:08 |
| Tortola | yes is disable | 02:08 |
| gorgonizer | is it a hi-def video, or a DVD, or an avi file that you are trying to play? | 02:08 |
| gorgonizer | can I ask, does anyone use hellanzb, and if so, does anyone know if it is possible to get it to use knotify, rather than libnotify? | 02:09 |

| ninix | i'm trying to upgrade to kde 4.2.... it's worked the first time... but this time... there is only some packages 4:4.2 that are installed | 02:13 |
| ninix | any hint ? | 02:13 |
| wers | i'm trying to integrate the look of gtk apps with my kde 4.2 desktop. the theme is saved by qt curve but how do I make the fonts look exactly like the ones in my kde apps? :) | 02:14 |
| gorgonizer | ninix: are you upgrading via command line, or in adept? | 02:14 |
| cbwcjw | Some guy here earlier did that wers, one second | 02:14 |
| ninix | i see a list of packages when i type `apt-get upgrade`, it said "The following packages have been kept back" | 02:14 |
| ninix | gorgonizer: console | 02:14 |
| wers | i also asked for the same thing earlier but i just got answers for the themes cbwcjw | 02:15 |
| gorgonizer | do sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 02:15 |
| cbwcjw | wers: http://forum.kde.org/how-to-integrate-firefox-into-kde-t-17786.html | 02:15 |
| cbwcjw | That should help | 02:15 |
| ninix | gorgonizer: dist-upgrade ? ... | 02:15 |
| wers | yeah. but that doesnt say about the fonts | 02:15 |
| cbwcjw | Hm, im not sure :( | 02:15 |
| gorgonizer | ninix: yeah, it is a more complete upgrade option.. | 02:16 |
| gorgonizer | ninix: I just run that full command whenever I try to do an upgrade.. | 02:16 |

| wers | what emerald theme works well with oxygen? | 02:23 |
| cbwcjw | gorgonizer: Hes inviting me with pidgin (on his vista box, I said I was one of the only linux users here) but the same issue happens with AIM | 02:24 |
| cbwcjw | gorgonizer: kopete cant do AIM chats, and thats what I need the most. Its quite disapointing | 02:24 |
| Tortola | in vlc i can choose between 3d now, mmx, mmx ext y libc | 02:25 |
| gorgonizer | cbwcjw: Kopete does have an AIM option, but as I don't have an AIM account, I have never checked it out.. | 02:25 |
| gorgonizer | so it might not work.. | 02:26 |
| cbwcjw | gorgonizer: Yea, it doesnt support AIM chatrooms | 02:26 |
| Dr_willis | Yahoo and those other ompanies Like to break the 3rd party clients every so often also. | 02:26 |
| gorgonizer | Tortola: those options depend on your CPU, in konsole run cat /proc/cpuinfo.. it will list which options your CPU supports.. | 02:26 |
| Dr_willis | I recall the aim 'chat rooms' breaking stuff a few months ago that took ages to get going again. | 02:26 |
| gorgonizer | cbwcjw: ahh, that is not something I know of, so a shrug of shoulders from me ;) | 02:27 |
| cbwcjw | gorgonizer: Oh well | 02:27 |
| Dr_willis | Wife used to hang in them all the time. They keep adding 'features' and 'anti-bot' stuff and other things. :) | 02:27 |
| cbwcjw | Dr_willis: This is a small chat with some of my freinds that we do every night with homework and things. | 02:28 |
| cbwcjw | Dr_willis: Not the big mainstream chats. | 02:28 |
| Dr_willis | I would try the latest versions of the various chat rooms. | 02:28 |
| Dr_willis | err chat programs | 02:28 |
| Dr_willis | or the AIM web interface. | 02:28 |
| cbwcjw | Dr_willis: I know, i use pidgin. I wish kopete would support it. Anyways... | 02:28 |
| Dr_willis | Well testing out the Default kde 4.2 setup now.. :) what fun.. | 02:30 |
| cbwcjw | I love it. | 02:30 |
| Dr_willis | and first thing i notice... How in the world do you set that clock to #*&!&!&^@&@ 12 hr format. :) | 02:30 |
| Dr_willis | Cant they understand people would love a simple 'check box' to just allow that one clock to be 12 hr format. :) | 02:30 |
| gorgonizer | I am very impressed.. especially the improvement from the Betas through to the final release.. | 02:31 |
| stdin | Dr_willis: same was as in 4.1 and 4.0 | 02:31 |
| Dr_willis | I gave up on 4.0 and 4.1 basically. :) | 02:31 |
| stdin | Dr_willis: System Settings -> Regional & Language -> Time & Dates | 02:31 |
| Dr_willis | figured id try 4.2 | 02:31 |
| gorgonizer | Right, time for me to go to bed methinks.. good night all! Happy Linuxing :) | 02:32 |
| Dr_willis | golly and i STILL have to restart the panel clock to get it to 12 hr format.. how..annoying. :) | 02:32 |
| Dr_willis | Yes its a trivial thing.. but really I just whant that ONE panel clock to be 12 hr format. :) not the whole system date/time to be 12 hjr format | 02:33 |
| Dr_willis | dident the 3.5 clock settings/menus have a link to that 'Time and Date' Control panel area? | 02:33 |
| Dr_willis | time to play with all the new widgits. :) | 02:35 |

| cbwcjw | mroc: I dont know how to do it, so its not TOO silly :D | 02:38 |
| mroc | cbwcjw: haha, ok. well, i feel better about it. but it does support irc, right? or do i need an additional plugin? | 02:39 |
| * Dr_willis tries to figure out what this ;internal extender conatiner' does. :) | 02:39 | |
| cbwcjw | mroc: idk, I juse use konversation :) Its a pretty slick client | 02:39 |
| Dr_willis | I dont see where Kopete does do irc any more either.... | 02:39 |
| Dr_willis | it used to be i think where you added aim/yahoo/msn/whatever accounts.. it had an IRC one also | 02:40 |
| zicada | irssi for irc | 02:40 |
| cbwcjw | zicada: ahahah! | 02:40 |
| mroc | cbwcjw: ok. well, thanks for the answers. i guess i'll keep searching, see what i can find. | 02:40 |
| zicada | what | 02:40 |
| stdin | Dr_willis: it was removed because it was broken and no one was maintaining it | 02:40 |
| stdin | (and no one wanted to rewrite it for KDE 4) | 02:40 |
| zicada | irssi is made of pure win | 02:40 |
| Dr_willis | irssin in a embeded window. :) | 02:40 |
| cbwcjw | zicada: irssi is hilarious, bare-bones. Anyways, somebody earlier, wers, was asking how to fix his GTK fonts so they integrate better | 02:40 |
| mroc | stdin: ah. ok. well then i won't keep searching. thanks. | 02:41 |
| zicada | send them to that forum post | 02:41 |
| alarm | when wanting to remove mysql , it wants to remove almost automatically everything . like konsole, adept, kdesudo , akregator , amarok, kdm etc | 02:41 |
| alarm | why is that ? since when kdm depends on mysql ? that means i dont have any other choice than leaving mysql installed ? | 02:41 |
| cbwcjw | zicada: I did, but he didnt seem to find what he was looking for | 02:41 |
| cbwcjw | alarm: probably. I would just keep mysql | 02:42 |
| Dr_willis | how are you trying to remove the thing? adept? ysnaptic? aptitude? | 02:42 |
| alarm | Dr_willis, adept | 02:42 |
| Dr_willis | try from terminal with 'apt-get remove' perhaps. | 02:42 |
| alarm | it also wants to remove kdebase-data :P | 02:42 |
| alarm | i hope i will be warned before they will be removed :) | 02:43 |
| stdin | alarm: akonadi-kde needs it | 02:43 |
| alarm | stdin, yes i figured that out. i dont need akonadi | 02:43 |
| alarm | but i surely need kdm , kde, etc without mysql :) | 02:44 |
| Dr_willis | 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 110 to remove and 0 not upgraded. | 02:45 |

| alarm | doesnt matter i will remove it from synaptic | 02:49 |
| wers | i cant install compiz-kde. it says broken packages. any idea how to fix it? | 02:50 |
| jimmy51_home | does wireless work in kubuntu? | 02:51 |
| Dr_willis | sudo apt-get remove mysql-common -> tries to remove 110 items. | 02:52 |
| Dr_willis | most of which seesm to be KDE related | 02:52 |
| jimmy51_home | i've installed 8.10 on an older laptop and tried 3 different PCMCIA cards. two are detected as wlan0, one sees the network but never ever connects | 02:52 |
| Dr_willis | Hmm - History - Up arrow - is not working any mor ein my terminals... oddd | 02:52 |
| Dr_willis | BRB | 02:53 |
| alarm | yes common is depending on many other packages. i knew that , but i get the same result with server as well | 02:53 |
| alarm | anyway, fixed | 02:53 |
| jimmy51_home | anyone here use wireless on a laptop with kubuntu 8.10? | 02:54 |
| jimmy51_home | if so... what did it take to get it to connect? | 02:54 |
| alarm | jimmy51_home, i do | 02:54 |
| alarm | jimmy51_home, nothing was done automatically :P | 02:55 |
| alarm | all i had to do was to choose my network , add the key and connect on it. although i cant find out how to autoconnect when loging into kde | 02:55 |
| Dr_willis | that was weird. | 02:56 |
| alarm | what? | 02:56 |
| jimmy51_home | alarm: you never had problems connecting? i get wlan0, configure the connection, but the gear spins and times out | 02:56 |
| Dr_willis | up arrow key just 'beeped' at me in the terminals in KDE 4.2 | 02:56 |
| Dr_willis | xchat/Konsole/Terminator. all just beeped. :) | 02:56 |

| Dr_willis | logged out and back into LXDE now its working | 02:57 |
| Dr_willis | noticed X is now on alt-0ctrl-F9 also | 02:58 |
| jimmy51_home | that's another weird part... when i run xfce instead of kde, the network manager only lets me choose WEP | 02:58 |
| jimmy51_home | when it's WPA | 02:58 |

| jimmy51_home | oooh, burn notice is on. wireless play later :) | 03:02 |
| khalidmian | NotSure: if u want more plasma gadgets sure whynot | 03:02 |
| NotSure | is the taskbar configurable? I dont like the 4.1 not as much configurable 3.5 | 03:02 |
| alarm | well i also liked 3.5 a lot, got used to the 3.x versions | 03:02 |
| wers | omg. lxappearance pwns in customizing gtk apps running on kde :D | 03:03 |
| NotSure | kde 3.5 is Awsome.... but I like the bells and whistles like the plasma desktop | 03:03 |
| wers | i just need an app to customize font rendering | 03:03 |
| NotSure | I just hate the kde 4.1 taskbar... it isnt fully configurable. I cant move things where I want and all | 03:04 |
| NotSure | does anyone know if 4.2 taskbar is fully configurable? | 03:04 |
| cbwcjw | Yea, you can do a lot more | 03:04 |
| Zorix | i hate how you cant disable the tooltips on kde 4.2 when you hover over things | 03:04 |

| cbwcjw | NotSure: You have a LOT more options, you can change almost everything now. | 03:05 |

| astromme | Amarok is working for me in Jaunty and 4.2..... | 03:23 |
| NotSure | Jaunty??? Im using intrepid | 03:23 |
| astromme | Syndrome: click the cashew and them click the "move" button. If you have no move button click anywhere on the panel config that appears above the panel when you click the cashew | 03:23 |
| cbwcjw | Amarok is working for me in intrepid and 4.2 | 03:23 |
| EtFb | I tried Kubuntu Intrepid for about three days, and gave up on it. I'll give Jaunty a go when it's out, but KDE4.1 is pretty dreadful. And if they don't even have Amarok working in 4.2 but they're still releasing it (presumably because, you know, nobody really listens to music any more) then I have no faith in the devs any more... | 03:23 |
| astromme | Syndrome: click + drag | 03:23 |
| Syndrome | It doesn't move it | 03:23 |
| cbwcjw | EtFb: 4.2 is out, and Amarok works. | 03:24 |
| KDesk | Anybody knows a front end for amule gui in qt? | 03:24 |
| PSiL0 | *yawn* http://www.kde-look.org/content/show.php/I+HATE+the+Cashew?content=91009 | 03:24 |
| astromme | EtFb: I'm definitely using Amarok in my 4.2. And I agree, _kubuntu_'s packages for 4.1 aren't the best. But they are improving with 4.2 | 03:24 |
| EtFb | cbwcjw: That's good, at least. But so much else was broken in 4.1, they've lost a lot of ground. | 03:24 |
| PSiL0 | ^^plasmoid to hide the cashew | 03:25 |
| EtFb | Not going to do a Linus and defect to Gnome, but I'm less eager to upgrade than I have been before. | 03:25 |
| astromme | Syndrome: Are you clicking the cashew on the panel? | 03:25 |
| NotSure | EtFb funny, I love the intrepid distro.. Its the 4.1 taskbar I hate.. Not as configurable as the kde 3.5 | 03:25 |
| cbwcjw | EtFb: 4.2 makes up for it. | 03:25 |
| EtFb | NotSure: A lot of my problems came from using an Acer Aspire notebook. Warning: don't ever use, buy or even walk near Acers... | 03:25 |
| EtFb | cbwcjw: Ah well. Maybe 4.1 was the Windows Vista of the Linux world, and 4.2 will be the Windows 7, ie a bug fix that finally works. | 03:26 |
| NotSure | yea I agree,,, That goes for there monitors.. I sent one back 4!!! times Finally they agreed to replace with dif model | 03:26 |
| NotSure | ill try it.. Thanks all.. | 03:27 |
| cbwcjw | EtFb: Im not sure, but KDE has my respect back | 03:27 |
| astromme | Hmm, I've had 4 great working acer monitors. The laptop I had was terrible. | 03:27 |
| EtFb | Can you edit the menu in 4.2? And what about global keyboard shortcuts, eg setting so that Windows+F starts Firefox, for example. | 03:27 |
| cbwcjw | EtFb: Yes | 03:27 |
| Syndrome | So any other way to move the panel other than just dragging it? | 03:28 |
| EtFb | astromme: They seem to do OK with monitors, but then their monitors division spun off to form BenQ, and they do laptops too without all the crap. | 03:28 |
| astromme | Syndrome: Just dragging it. Is it not working for you? | 03:28 |
| EtFb | cbwcjw: Yes to both? Cos not being able to press Win+X for Emacs, Win+T for Terminal, etc, really messed with my muscle memory. | 03:28 |
| Syndrome | Nope, it isn't | 03:28 |
| astromme | Syndrome: You click the cashew and then click+drag on the bar that appears, not on the panel itself. | 03:29 |
| Syndrome | Oh, lol | 03:29 |
| Syndrome | That worked | 03:29 |
| Syndrome | Thanks | 03:29 |
| astromme | Syndrome: Yeah, I know, not the easiest to find. It's much improved in 4.2 with a big button that says "move" when you click the config cashew | 03:29 |
| Syndrome | First time with linux.. so I'm completely clueless | 03:29 |
| astromme | No problem | 03:30 |
| Syndrome | I can't get it to connect to my wireless network either | 03:30 |
| Syndrome | But I think that might because of what my wep key is set to | 03:30 |
| astromme | Syndrome: I also had problems with knetworkmanager in 8.10. I ended up installing the gnome network manager (and ran it with nm-applet) | 03:32 |
| cbwcjw | EtFb: Yea, yes to both. I must be off, adios | 03:32 |
| EtFb | I got the knetworkmanager working with a WPA-PSK connection with no worries in two different places, on the abovementioned Acer. So that's not universally bad at least. | 03:32 |

| gaoC | aka im in kwin | 05:14 |
| webbi | hello | 05:14 |
| webbi | is there anyway to diable for a while the auto mount utility? | 05:14 |
| DaSkreech | gaoC: You said if you closed the konsole it would go away. If you log out then it gets saved in your session and rerun when you login | 05:15 |
| hellhound_ | DaSkreech: I just installed 8.10 and I installed the NVIDIA graphic driver version 177 and after I restarted the machine will not boot. It stops at "Checking battery state" I have a Nvidia GeForce 8600 GT. | 05:15 |
| gaoC | oh well that's good to know, thanks | 05:15 |
| syockit | gaoC: either kwin's old, or system settings is. Please check the version of kde-window-manager | 05:15 |
| syockit | that one looks like from the 4.1 days | 05:15 |
| DaSkreech | hellhound_: tried a plain settings boot ? | 05:16 |
| gaoC | coag@null:~$ kwin -v | 05:16 |
| gaoC | Qt: 4.4.3 | 05:16 |
| gaoC | KDE: 4.1.3 (KDE 4.1.3) | 05:16 |
| gaoC | KWin: 3.0 | 05:16 |
| gaoC | whoops sorry for the four lines.. | 05:16 |
| gaoC | i'm on kde 4.2 or so i thought... | 05:16 |
| DaSkreech | gaoC: There you go Kwin from KDE 4.1 | 05:16 |
| gaoC | i did the ppa | 05:16 |
| gaoC | repo | 05:16 |
| gaoC | and installed 4.2 | 05:16 |
| DaSkreech | gaoC: sudo apt-get install kwin | 05:16 |
| syockit | gaoC: ah, is it project-neon? | 05:16 |
| hellhound_ | DaSkreech: I am able to boot into the command prompt using the recovery setting in grub | 05:16 |
| DaSkreech | see if it missed something | 05:16 |
| syockit | gaoC: if so, that one is installed on a different session. It does not replace your kde | 05:17 |
| DaSkreech | hellhound_: Ok swap out your driver to something else to see if that's the issue | 05:17 |
| DaSkreech | gaoC: Which ppa? | 05:17 |
| gaoC | launchpad | 05:17 |
| syockit | ... | 05:17 |
| gaoC | apt-get install kwin just installed 4.2 kwin | 05:18 |
| gaoC | anything else i have to do so when i log in it uses 4.2? | 05:18 |
| syockit | wait, try replacing current kwin first | 05:18 |
| gaoC | ok | 05:18 |
| syockit | hmm, wait, even that won't work | 05:18 |
| syockit | as in the end you need to configure that from the settings | 05:19 |
| syockit | gaoC: again, which ppa did you install it from? | 05:20 |
| syockit | gaoC: launchpad.net/~<insert name here> | 05:20 |
| gaoC | oh | 05:20 |
| gaoC | intrepid main | 05:20 |
| DaSkreech | before that part | 05:20 |
| wastrel | how do i get the black panel back? | 05:21 |
| DaSkreech | wastrel: what did you do to make it go away ? | 05:21 |
| wastrel | it is blue | 05:21 |
| wastrel | i want it black like it was in 4.1 | 05:21 |
| syockit | gaoC: no, the full ppa.launchpad address | 05:21 |
| DaSkreech | wastrel: oh swap yourtheme | 05:21 |
| gaoC | hold on | 05:21 |
| DaSkreech | right clikc on the desktop and appearance settings | 05:22 |
| wastrel | which theme has the black bar? | 05:22 |
| gaoC | deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-experimental/ubuntu intrepid main | 05:22 |
| gaoC | i used the guide from kubuntu site | 05:23 |
| gaoC | i forgot to do the gpg key adding before though | 05:23 |
| syockit | gaoC; don't worry the gpg. anyways, you installed only kwin? | 05:24 |
| gaoC | no i installed kde 4.2 before | 05:24 |
| syockit | I mean, don't worry gpg for now. But try installing gpg before anything before next time, it should be the practice | 05:25 |
| DaSkreech | gaoC: Ok sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop | 05:25 |
| wastrel | new theme is ugly :[ | 05:25 |
| DaSkreech | wastrel: A few of them are dark | 05:25 |
| syockit | DaSkreech: if it's already installed, i don't think that'll work to auto upgrade all deps | 05:25 |
| DaSkreech | syockit: It will if it's a higher version than the one he has now | 05:26 |
| DaSkreech | assuming that gaoC is a he | 05:26 |
| wastrel | i only have one, is there a package with more? | 05:26 |
| gaoC | no changes from that DaSkreech | 05:26 |
| gaoC | so i'm good to go? | 05:26 |
| wastrel | it's this ugly blue thing the old one looked nice | 05:27 |
| gaoC | restarting X etc? | 05:27 |
| DaSkreech | wastrel: what was the old one you had? I used to use silicon | 05:27 |
| DaSkreech | Tha was dark | 05:27 |
| syockit | gaoC: you have to make sure every kde bits are installed first | 05:27 |
| gaoC | well kwin is 4.2 | 05:27 |
| DaSkreech | Well not every kde bit | 05:27 |
| gaoC | kde is 4.2 | 05:27 |
| DaSkreech | but a good chunk :) | 05:27 |
| DaSkreech | gaoC: Open some application and look at help -> about KDE | 05:28 |
| gaoC | lol it says 3.5.10 :/ | 05:28 |
| wastrel | whatever the default on the 4.1 was | 05:28 |
| gaoC | and apt-get upgrade has no kde in it | 05:28 |
| DaSkreech | wastrel: oxygen | 05:28 |
| wastrel | i have oxygen now the bar is blue, not black. | 05:29 |
| DaSkreech | gaoC: What app did you use? Don't use konversation :) | 05:29 |
| wastrel | also the background pic is diff but i guess that's not part of the theme | 05:29 |
| DaSkreech | wastrel: try glassified | 05:29 |
| gaoC | lol ok | 05:30 |
| DaSkreech | konqueror is normally a safe bet | 05:30 |
| gaoC | dolphin says 4.1.3 | 05:30 |
| BattleStarJesus | How do I fix: "Your system has broken dependencies." ? | 05:31 |
| DaSkreech | gaoC: Right sounds like you haven't upgraded yet | 05:31 |
| DaSkreech | BattleStarJesus: try apt-get -f install | 05:31 |
| wastrel | light grey | 05:31 |
| gaoC | apt-cache policy w/e reports 4.2 | 05:31 |
| DaSkreech | gaoC: Logout then when you get the login screen press alt+E then login | 05:32 |
| gaoC | alright | 05:32 |
| DaSkreech | wastrel: Do you have a silicon ? | 05:32 |
| BattleStarJesus | DaSkreech: tryed it and no fix. | 05:32 |
| syockit | DaSkreech: what's the command to crop output? I want him to paste dpkg-query -l kde | 05:32 |
| wastrel | light blue | 05:33 |
| DaSkreech | wastrel: try sudo apt-get install plasma-desktopthemes-artwork | 05:33 |
| DaSkreech | Should give you some options | 05:33 |
| DaSkreech | syockit: crop ? | 05:34 |
| DaSkreech | BattleStarJesus: what's causing the depends issues? | 05:34 |
| syockit | DaSkreech: like, trim off only the third string or something | 05:34 |
| DaSkreech | syockit: be more specific and I'll tell you what the command is | 05:35 |
| syockit | DaSkreech: I'm changing question: how to sed tabs? | 05:36 |
| * DaSkreech blinks | 05:36 | |
| DaSkreech | like on firefox ? | 05:36 |
| gaoC | alrighty | 05:37 |
| gaoC | upgrading now | 05:37 |
| gaoC | could've sworn i did this already | 05:37 |
| gaoC | evidently not, w/e | 05:37 |
| DaSkreech | syockit: You want to change tabs for something ? | 05:37 |
| gaoC | what does "meta" key refer to in laymans terms :P | 05:38 |
| gaoC | is that alt | 05:38 |
| syockit | DaSkreech: not really. I figured out awk was the correct tool | 05:38 |
| DaSkreech | gaoC: yes | 05:38 |
| wastrel | hi hi | 05:38 |
| wastrel | http://itmanagement.earthweb.com/img/2008/07/kde-4.1-desktop.jpg <= that is what i want | 05:38 |
| DaSkreech | syockit: ha ha what are you trying to do ? | 05:38 |
| wastrel | that background, a nice black panel | 05:38 |
| wastrel | how do i get that in 4.2? | 05:39 |
| BattleStarJesus | DaSkreech: something to do with a kernel image, how do I find out exactly? | 05:39 |
| DaSkreech | wastrel: I get that with Oxygen | 05:39 |
| DaSkreech | BattleStarJesus: I guess apt-get install linux-image | 05:39 |
| CYREX | how is 4.2 running on a PC with nvidia glx 177? | 05:40 |
| DaSkreech | Though the kernel should only depend on libc6 and apt itself | 05:40 |
| gaoC | thanks for your patience DaSkreech and help | 05:40 |
| gaoC | you too syockit | 05:40 |
| DaSkreech | sure I'm going to be distracted in a bit so say my name if you want me | 05:41 |
| wastrel | DaSkreech: i get this -> http://kde.org/announcements/4.2/screenshots/desktop.png | 05:41 |
| wastrel | wiht oxygen | 05:41 |
| syockit | wastrel: http://techbase.kde.org/index.php?title=Development/Tutorials/Plasma/Theme | 05:44 |
| syockit | wastrel: the default metadata.desktop doesn't contain any reference to the panel background though | 05:44 |
| wastrel | i am shit at design i can't make a theme | 05:45 |
| DaSkreech | no there should be some darker themes | 05:45 |
| DaSkreech | Oxygen doesn't look like that at all for me :-( | 05:45 |
| wastrel | i liked the black panel... hrm | 05:47 |
| syockit | wastrel: the opaque theme uses the blue one | 05:48 |
| syockit | that's default in 4.2 i think | 05:48 |
| wastrel | oxygen what mine says | 05:48 |
| === tom__ is now known as tomismyname | ||
| === tomismyname is now known as tom__ | ||
| syockit | hmm, I'll give you a dirty workaround then | 05:51 |
| syockit | first, back up /usr/share/kde4/apps/desktoptheme/default/opaque/widgets/panel-background.svgz | 05:51 |
| syockit | like: cp /usr/share/kde4/apps/desktoptheme/default/opaque/widgets/panel-background.svgz /usr/share/kde4/apps/desktoptheme/default/opaque/widgets/panel-background.svgz.backup | 05:52 |
| syockit | next, cp /usr/share/kde4/apps/desktoptheme/default/widgets/panel-background.svgz /usr/share/kde4/apps/desktoptheme/default/opaque/widgets/panel-background.svgz | 05:52 |
| syockit | then restart plasma | 05:52 |
| genii | syockit: Those dirs will need sudo, regular user has no write privs there | 05:53 |
| wastrel | oxygen is using the wrong panel background image? | 05:54 |
| syockit | Maybe I should've taught him to copy the theme instead | 05:54 |

| gkffjck | Hi guys... I know I'm on a development release but I was wondering... I have been able to run compositing on kde4.1 with no problems.... but now in 4.2 It says that I cannot enable compositing what's up? | 05:59 |
| Paddy_EIRE | Is it possible to hide the konqueror status bar ? | 06:01 |
| gaoC | wow 4.2 is spectacular | 06:02 |
| Paddy_EIRE | yeah | 06:02 |
| DaSkreech | let me guess you got 4.2? | 06:02 |
| Paddy_EIRE | yeah | 06:02 |
| Paddy_EIRE | :) | 06:02 |
| PSiL0 | quick question, anyone know how to change the blue hue/halo that borders active windows? | 06:04 |
| tom__ | wanting to view my windows network with ubuntu | 06:04 |
| Paddy_EIRE | !samba | 06:05 |
| ubottu | Samba 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. | 06:05 |
| tom__ | I downloaded samba then saw i got it how do i start it? | 06:05 |
| Paddy_EIRE | tom__: just read this http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html | 06:06 |
| tom__ | ok | 06:06 |
| Paddy_EIRE | gah.. wait | 06:06 |
| Paddy_EIRE | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently | 06:07 |
| Paddy_EIRE | that | 06:07 |
| Paddy_EIRE | :P | 06:07 |
| DaSkreech | tom__: If you have a windows network already in konqui or dolphin press ctrl+L and type in smb:// | 06:07 |
| Texas | hey im a newbie i got a question | 06:07 |
| tom__ | I tried smb:// in firefox will try others | 06:07 |
| DaSkreech | Firefox? | 06:08 |
| gaoC | is there a deafult hotkey for switching desktops | 06:08 |
| Paddy_EIRE | !ask | Texas | 06:08 |
| ubottu | Texas: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 06:08 |
| Texas | if any one is free i would appreciate it | 06:08 |
| Texas | thanks | 06:08 |
| DaSkreech | gaoC: Ctrl+Fn | 06:08 |
| gaoC | where would i set ctrl right arrow for next left arrow for prev etc | 06:09 |
| pepinillo | ok... so I upgraded to kde 4.2 on my comp | 06:10 |
| wastrel | i did that too | 06:10 |
| pepinillo | my icons from the task bar dissapeared!!! | 06:10 |
| Paddy_EIRE | pepinillo: tried re-adding them | 06:11 |
| Paddy_EIRE | :/ | 06:11 |
| pepinillo | only have the show dashboard and recently plugged in one | 06:11 |
| wastrel | kde4.2 is better than 4.1 but still slow and breaky | 06:11 |
| pepinillo | want me to be honest... haven't figured out how | 06:11 |
| DaSkreech | Texas: No one can answer a question unspoken | 06:11 |
| wastrel | also now it's ugly | 06:11 |
| pepinillo | I don't mean the ones you add and then use... the ones that appear when you start running an application... | 06:11 |
| Texas | I need to know what packages i need to download for chatrooms on the inter net | 06:11 |
| PSiL0 | ahhh, finally got rid of that blue halo | 06:11 |
| Texas | i got disconected my question is what packages do i need to download for chat rooms to work java based | 06:11 |
| DaSkreech | Texas: you are already on a chatroom on the interent | 06:12 |
| tom__ | how do i start konqui or dolphin in ubuntu 8.04 | 06:12 |
| PSiL0 | using bare naked as my theme, keeping it simple | 06:12 |
| pepinillo | like I had my hp's printer icon there, and it told me things... now it's gone.. printer works though.. | 06:12 |
| DaSkreech | tom__: alt+f2 konqueror | 06:12 |
| DaSkreech | tom__: alt+f2 dolphin | 06:12 |
| pepinillo | this kde feels much smoother to me... | 06:12 |
| wastrel | yeah it performs better than 4.1 | 06:12 |
| wastrel | 4.1 was hog | 06:13 |
| DaSkreech | pepinillo: press the little button at the end of the panel then click add widgets. add which ever ones you feel like | 06:13 |
| tom__ | the location or file could not be found | 06:13 |
| pepinillo | I don't mean the widgets... | 06:13 |
| marc | is this thinking working, holla back | 06:13 |
| pepinillo | like if you run say... skype... the icon that appears... | 06:13 |
| pepinillo | when you're running it.,.. bottom right corner of screen... it doesn.t anymore... | 06:14 |
| DaSkreech | Your system tray? | 06:14 |
| wastrel | you're missing the little thingy. the notification area | 06:14 |
| pepinillo | YES | 06:14 |
| DaSkreech | It's a widget | 06:14 |
| pepinillo | is that another widet?? | 06:14 |
| pepinillo | sweet... | 06:14 |
| DaSkreech | yes | 06:14 |
| Texas | what packages do i need to download to make java chatrooms work | 06:15 |
| pepinillo | dp you know the name of the widget?? | 06:15 |
| DaSkreech | system tray | 06:15 |
| DaSkreech | !java | texas | 06:15 |
| ubottu | texas: To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre or sun-java6-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Please don't use Adept to install Java if you are on Kubuntu !Dapper | 06:15 |

| pepinillo | you guys are my heroes!!!!!! | 06:17 |
| pepinillo | XOXOXOXOXOXOXO | 06:17 |
| DaSkreech | play around with what's there to get an idea | 06:18 |
| pepinillo | it is now officially SUPER SWEET | 06:18 |
| marc | webcams in kubuntu, dont work | 06:18 |
| pepinillo | my webcam doens't work in ANY linux distro... | 06:19 |
| pepinillo | tried all kinds of programs, drivers, etceteras... | 06:20 |
| pepinillo | you can even add new desktops so you can see like 3 or 4 at once??!!! SWEET!! | 06:22 |
| wastrel | ok cheers. maybe 4.3 will work for me :] | 06:22 |
| syockit | I had a working webcam, but don't use it anymore | 06:22 |
| pepinillo | stupid drivers | 06:22 |
| Socceroos | I'm having trouble getting strigi to index files. Can someone help? | 06:22 |
| syockit | pepinillo: yeah, but I wish I can attach each desktop to each workspace | 06:22 |
| Socceroos | the System Settings dialog just keeps saying that strigi is not running. | 06:23 |
| pepinillo | I had this REAAALLLY old ibm pc cam... worked fine... newer one, total bummer... | 06:23 |
| Socceroos | I'm using KDE 4.2 | 06:23 |
| syockit | Texas: konversation be good enough | 06:25 |
| syockit | wait, what did i say? | 06:25 |
| Taggnostr | hello | 06:28 |
| Socceroos | apachelogger: ping | 06:29 |
| Taggnostr | I'm running kubuntu inside virtualbox and the altgr and a few other buttons don't seem to work properly, but apparently the problem is not vbox, do you know how can I check if they are seen by kubuntu and how I can fix the problem? | 06:29 |
| Taggnostr | I just tried with the virtual keyboard and they don't seem to work either | 06:31 |
| Taggnostr | is there some package related to the keyboard that I can reinstall maybe? | 06:31 |
| pepinillo | could it be the keyboard setting??? that it's configured to another language?? | 06:31 |
| pepinillo | I've done that... | 06:32 |
| Taggnostr | I'm checking now, but I didn't change anything, and also it should print the wrong character if the layout was wrong | 06:33 |
| syockit | Taggnostr: you can try the Keyboard & Mouse settings. then go to any shortcuts tab, select a custom shortcut, then try assigning keys | 06:34 |
| Taggnostr | ok, now I have an error while trying to change the layout | 06:35 |
| Taggnostr | I've enabled the keyboard layouts in the international settings and select two of them, but the tray icon show 'err' and says "Error changin keyboard layout to 'us'" or the other layouts I tried | 06:37 |
| DaSkreech | Taggnostr: what's your keyboard set to? | 06:48 |
| Taggnostr | us or fi | 06:48 |
| Taggnostr | actually, I just had fi, and it stopped to work (i think after an update), if I enable different keyboard layouts I get that error | 06:49 |
| Taggnostr | maybe I've found something http://www.nabble.com/Keyboard-layout-problem-with-xkeyboard-config-1.0-td11780848.html | 06:55 |
| tbr281 | can someone help me with the package signing key for the repository on the kde 4.2 page? | 06:59 |
| tbr281 | i try to add it but nothing happens when i enter the command | 07:00 |
| Taggnostr | it's not working | 07:05 |
| === debian is now known as Guest26479 | ||
| DaSkreech | tbr281: Should ask for your password | 07:13 |
| DaSkreech | Taggnostr: What is it doing? | 07:13 |
| === Daisuke-Ido is now known as Daisuke_Ido | ||
| Taggnostr | I create the dir as suggested there but I still can't change layout, I'm trying to reinstall xkb packages | 07:14 |
| Taggnostr | I don't know what packages I should reinstall | 07:15 |
| Taggnostr | I guess that there's something that has to be recompiled, but I don't know what/how | 07:17 |
| syockit | how about trying guest addons? | 07:20 |
| === Trel is now known as Ketrel | ||
| Taggnostr | trying to reinstall them? | 07:22 |
| syockit | so you have it already | 07:22 |
| Taggnostr | yep, but I can try to reinstall them | 07:23 |
| Sady | hi. Im trying to get my aqualung working. When I start to open the progman it says that "no output dirver spedivied" and "no usable output driver was found" It tells me that OSS driver (which I use) "device busy". So how I can "free" my oss drived so that the program could even start? | 07:26 |
| Sady | I'm not listen any music at the moment and there has been problems with oss driver before. It always says that the driver is busy and it wont work because of that. I'm not sure which program makes it "busy". | 07:27 |
| Sady | for the note: I'm trying to get another musicplayer because Amarok is slow. laggy and it wont work correctly. | 07:28 |
| syockit | Taggnostr: what does xev output when you press them buttons | 07:29 |
| Taggnostr | xev? | 07:29 |
| syockit | get a console running, run xev | 07:30 |
| syockit | it will open a small window, select it, then do some clicks or presses | 07:30 |
| syockit | then check the console again | 07:30 |
| syockit | Sady: try lsof | egrep '/dev/dsp|/dev/snd' | 07:32 |
| Sady | what does it do exactly? | 07:34 |
| syockit | Sady: lists programs using those devices | 07:36 |
| syockit | assuming your sound hardware is those two | 07:36 |
| Sady | I cant get it working | 07:39 |
| Sady | it says status erro when I try "lsof /dev/dps" | 07:40 |
| syockit | how about with sudo? but that's strange... | 07:41 |
| Sady | noup | 07:41 |
| Sady | about the egrep it says command not found | 07:43 |
| Sady | is there another way to see the list of programs using those devices? | 07:44 |
| syockit | anyways lsof /dev/dsp should be the same. I thought it needed a grep | 07:44 |
| Sady | yeah I can type that and it says nothing just blank and when I use the egrep it says that command not found | 07:45 |
| syockit | okay, but you should have a grep. try lsof | grep /dev/snd | 07:45 |
| Sady | oh wow now | 07:45 |
| Sady | I did "lsof | grep /dev/snd/ and it ... said something | 07:45 |
| syockit | got them pid yet? | 07:45 |
| Sady | "artsd, artsd, artsd, kmix, kmix and last amarokapp | 07:46 |
| syockit | pid is the magic number after the app name | 07:46 |
| Sady | 5981 | 07:46 |
| syockit | kill -9 5981 | 07:46 |
| Sady | kill artsd? | 07:46 |
| syockit | what kde are you using btw? | 07:47 |
| syockit | oss is so legacy | 07:47 |
| Sady | I'm using old one | 07:47 |
| Sady | not the newest I think it was 3.5 or something | 07:47 |
| Sady | 3.5.10 | 07:48 |
| Sady | so would you tell me why I do kill -9 5981? | 07:48 |
| syockit | I'm not used to ways of 3.5. It uses arts daemon instead | 07:50 |
| syockit | you had a list of programs using things in /dev/snd/ right? | 07:50 |
| syockit | don't kill artsd or kmix | 07:50 |
| syockit | just the unwanted program | 07:50 |
| Sady | ok | 07:50 |
| Sady | and which one is the unwanted? amarokapp? | 07:51 |
| syockit | probably. Is amarok running? | 07:51 |
| Sady | yeah | 07:51 |
| Sady | just killed it though | 07:51 |
| Sady | and now its not there anymore | 07:51 |
| syockit | Oh. Next time check amarok settings to see what audio backend it's using | 07:51 |
| Sady | umm | 07:52 |
| syockit | whether it's alsa,arts,sdl,pulseaudio,etc etc | 07:52 |
| Sady | it's automatic | 07:52 |
| Sady | and it uses xine as the motor | 07:52 |
| Sady | xine uses oss | 07:52 |
| Taggnostr | sorry, I lost the connection | 07:52 |
| Sady | anyway I killed the amarok, the amarokapp removed from the lsof list but it wont still open aqualung it says that oss drived device is busy and that alsa driver device is busy | 07:53 |
| syockit | yup, I think alsa is being used by either kmix or artsd | 07:54 |
| Sady | of ff*** | 07:54 |
| syockit | And aqualung should be told to use either | 07:54 |
| Sady | so how do I do that? | 07:56 |
| RurouniJones | I need to nuke (securely erase) a server's filesystem. Any suggestions as to what program to use? (It is via SSH so no sledgehammering suggestions :)) | 07:56 |
| Sady | it tells me that no output drived specified, probing for a usable drived. I did try to tell" aqualung -d oss /dev/snd/" | 07:57 |
| syockit | Sady: anyways let's get your arts daemon restarted. to do that.... | 07:57 |
| Sady | ok ^^ | 07:57 |
| syockit | Sady: wait, can't use alsa instead? | 07:57 |
| carpii | Rurouni, you sound like someone whos up to no good | 07:57 |
| Sady | umm I think alsa wont work for my sounddevices, amplifier etc | 07:57 |
| Taggnostr | maybe now the keyboard is working | 07:58 |
| Sady | that's why I'm using oos | 07:58 |
| Sady | *oss | 07:58 |
| Taggnostr | fixed \o/ | 07:58 |
| Taggnostr | thanks guys | 07:58 |
| RurouniJones | carpii: And you sound like someone who is overly suspicious | 07:58 |
| syockit | Sady: kill artsd | 07:58 |
| syockit | what do you have in /dev/snd anyway? | 07:59 |
| Sady | in /dev/snd is: control and different parameteres, pcm and seq, timer | 07:59 |
| syockit | usually I have kmix on /dev/snd/controlC0 | 08:00 |
| Sady | isnt restart a command so that I could do instead of kill jsut restart artsd? | 08:00 |
| syockit | I'm not sure if artsd have an init.d | 08:00 |
| syockit | try sudo /etc/init.d/artsd restart | 08:00 |
| Sady | command not found | 08:01 |
| Sady | and kill artsd says bash: kill: artsd: arguments must be process or job IDs | 08:01 |
| Sady | so it wont regonize any artsd | 08:01 |
| Sady | I did check from my prosesses that I do have two artsd, and the PID for those are: 5981 and 6285 | 08:03 |
| Sady | which one I will kill? | 08:03 |
| syockit | try both | 08:05 |
| _r1_ | hi | 08:05 |
| Sady | oh lol :D both | 08:05 |
| _r1_ | I just upgrade to 4.2 and I still have a konsole bug that makes me sad | 08:06 |
| Sady | killed only the 5981 and the second one should be done by "sudo" | 08:06 |
| Sady | it did create new artsd with PID : 7501 | 08:06 |
| _r1_ | when I launch a term, I lost the last line print | 08:06 |
| _r1_ | Is that a wworkaround about that ? (except redimention the konsole size each time) | 08:06 |
| ederico | Hello, I just upgraded to KDE 4.2 (on Kubuntu 8.10) and I'm having problems with Amarok (1.4), basically there is no audio | 08:08 |
| ederico | it worked fine with KDE 4.1 | 08:08 |
| RurouniJones | To answer my own question - use DD with /dev/random a few times. It isn't going to stop police forensices but it will do for when you are getting rid of an HDD. There you go carpii, now if I was up to evil stuff I succeeded anyway. Thanks for the help... | 08:08 |
| syockit | Sady: now try aqualung again | 08:08 |
| Sady | it failed I did try it | 08:08 |
| syockit | Sady: kill kmix this time | 08:09 |
| Sady | oh wow :D | 08:09 |
| carpii | np Rurouni, glad i could be of assistance | 08:09 |
| syockit | I think your artsd uses alsa | 08:09 |
| syockit | but you claimed that amarok plays sound... | 08:09 |
| Sady | killed wont open | 08:09 |
| sandGorgon | ederico: 8.10 has a bug that it mutes audio. do "alsamixer -Dhw" and unmute everything | 08:09 |
| Sady | ummm so? | 08:09 |
| Sady | kmix | 08:10 |
| syockit | ederico: only KDE upgrade or kernel as well? | 08:10 |
| mefisto__ | if you're using alsa, you can reload it and kill everything using it with: sudo alsa force-reload | 08:11 |
| ederico | hmmm, the kernel must have been update since I did a fresh install of Kubuntu yesterday | 08:11 |
| ederico | sandGorgon: I'll test what you said about the muting thing | 08:11 |
| Sady | force reloaded it | 08:11 |
| _r1_ | and damn kontact still gives me error :( | 08:12 |
| Sady | aqualung : alsa : unable to start with default params, oss: device busy | 08:12 |
| syockit | Sady: man that is sure annoying. I wonder what the default params are | 08:12 |
| syockit | Sady: can you see if amarok still can play sounds? | 08:13 |
| Sady | opening amarok, it's slow | 08:13 |
| === _neversfelde is now known as neversfelde | ||
| Sady | yeah | 08:13 |
| Sady | I can hear my Opeth really good :3 | 08:13 |
| ederico | sandGorgon: awesome, it works! Thanks a lot :) | 08:13 |
| syockit | Sady: btw lsof /dev/audio as well | 08:14 |
| Sady | nothign | 08:14 |
| syockit | Sady: seeing that amarok plays, check the settings for it, see what it's using for audio playback | 08:15 |
| Sady | xine | 08:15 |
| syockit | hmm | 08:15 |
| Sady | opened xine it says auto now | 08:16 |
| Sady | oh no, its oss :D | 08:16 |
| syockit | arrggghhhh | 08:16 |
| syockit | I'm confused as to how these sound server works! | 08:16 |
| Sady | o.O | 08:17 |
| Sady | maybe I should just give up, use my shitty laggy amarok and forget trying to have another program for playing music | 08:17 |
| Sady | I'd like to have one that doesnt crash down once or twice a day, I'm having oo much "songs" in my playlists and the random dosn't work either | 08:17 |
| syockit | so xine doesn't work with alsa? | 08:18 |
| syockit | aqualung is beta, can't guarantee it won't crash | 08:18 |
| Sady | pfft like I care amarok crashed everyday? | 08:18 |
| Sady | changed it to alsa nothing | 08:19 |
| syockit | and that laggy thing might have something to do with oss | 08:19 |
| Sady | I can still hear my music | 08:19 |
| Sady | xines now alsa | 08:19 |
| syockit | exit amarok, see if it still resides in memory i.e. lsof | grep /dev/snd | 08:19 |
| syockit | or get the alsa-oss wrapper solution | 08:20 |
| Sady | hehe killed my amarok and I can still hear my music <3 | 08:20 |
| Sady | sweet | 08:20 |
| Sady | ok it's down now. slow as shit | 08:20 |
| syockit | but since aqualung has alsa support built-in, alsa-oss shouldn't be required anyway | 08:21 |
| syockit | so is there anything amarok in lsof? | 08:21 |
| Sady | ok now I did get my music killed | 08:21 |
| syockit | That's like totally slow, dude! | 08:21 |
| syockit | Is it that laggy | 08:21 |
| Sady | IT IS | 08:22 |
| syockit | by the way about kill and pid, if you want to kill by program name, use backtick | 08:23 |
| Sady | pfft | 08:23 |
| Sady | I need to go to the university next | 08:23 |
| syockit | not quotes. for example: kill `pidof amarokapp` instead of kill 'pidof amarokapp' | 08:23 |
| syockit | pidof gives you the pid for that app | 08:24 |
| Sady | :O | 08:24 |
| Sady | ok thnx | 08:24 |
| syockit | well then, too bad I wasn't a good help this time | 08:24 |
| syockit | wish you luck next time! | 08:24 |
| Sady | maybe I'll come back later if I have any time | 08:24 |
| Sady | ok ^^ | 08:24 |

| robinr | stdin: isn't it more like 3.5 GB on 32-bit, i.e. some is wasted for I/O and such things | 08:31 |
| stdin | robinr: yeah, there is some overhead, but if you only have a 32bit CPU there's little you can do about that | 08:32 |
| robinr | yeah, they still exist, but are rarely equipped with as much as 4 GB anyway | 08:33 |

| nexus10 | Hi. I want to fix a Kubuntu 6.06 machine that was being upgraded with do-release-upgrade -- and it crashed, leaving system with no net access. What CDs do I need to burn? 8.04 install? | 11:36 |
| legate | nexus10: You want to make a fresh install? | 11:37 |
| Barbadillo | hi, is it the actual kde4.2 package the final release? | 11:37 |
| IICUX | system can't mount drives | 11:39 |
| nexus10 | legate: no, I'd rather upgrade -- but I'm not familiar enough with Kubuntu/Ubuntu to know the best way (I'm ok with core Linux) | 11:39 |
| legate | Barbadillo: Yes, KDE 4.2 is now final. You can get it following the instructions on http://www.kubuntu.org/news/kde-4.2. | 11:39 |
| Barbadillo | legate: i got a problem they say solved but it is not | 11:40 |
| legate | nexus10: An upgrade from such an old version as 6.06 may not be advisable. I would make a fresh install with an 8.10 CD, but you can try to upgrade it. | 11:40 |
| legate | Barbadillo: Which? | 11:40 |
| Barbadillo | korganizer crash | 11:41 |
| Barbadillo | legate: http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=180655 | 11:41 |
| nexus10 | legate: ok, thanks. If I try an upgrade first, what path would you recommend? | 11:41 |
| nexus10 | legate: and specifically, since the machine has no net access, what CDs would I need? | 11:42 |
| legate | nexus10: Use the Adept Package Manager. But please, first save all your personal data on a USB stick or extern hard disk. | 11:42 |
| nexus10 | legate: good advice :-) | 11:42 |
| nexus10 | legate: can I use cmdline tools? | 11:42 |
| legate | nexus10: You can download the 8.10 iso from http://www.kubuntu.org/getkubuntu. | 11:43 |
| techbw | hi when creating a partition with gparted, does it format the partition for use as well? | 11:43 |
| legate | nexus10: Oh sorry, that's for a fresh install. | 11:43 |
| Barbadillo | legate: this is my version according to "About->KDE" -> 4.2.00 (KDE 4.2.0) | 11:43 |
| nexus10 | legate: I was hoping to keep KDE 3.5... | 11:44 |
| nexus10 | hence 8.04 | 11:44 |
| techbw | !gparted | 11:44 |
| ubottu | gparted is a !GTK/!Gnome !GUI partitioning program. Type « sudo apt-get install gparted » in a console to install it - A GParted "live" CD is available at http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php | 11:44 |
| legate | nexus10: I don't know if it is possible to upgrade without access to the Internet. Is there no possibility to connect this machine? | 11:44 |
| nexus10 | legate: not atm | 11:44 |
| nexus10 | legate: I may boot it with a gentoo livecd, mount the HD so I can back up to USB stick... | 11:45 |
| Paddy_EIRE | Is there any way for me to install the KOffice 2.0 Beta 5 release via 'apt-get' I am currently running 8.10 kde4.2 | 11:45 |

| nexus10 | legate: ok, ta. Any other CDS I should take apart from an 8.04 install? | 11:46 |
| jim_p | hi people | 11:47 |
| jim_p | how can i configure my kde4 kdm? | 11:47 |
| legate | Barbadillo: Well, it says that it's fixed, so it probably is. Is this really your problem? When it crashes on your system, do you get the same stack trace? | 11:48 |
| legate | nexus10: What do you mean? The only thing you need in order to install an 8.04 system is the 8.04 iso. But without network access you won't get any updates. | 11:49 |
| nexus10 | legate: I wondered whether there were any "utility" ubuntu images... | 11:50 |
| legate | nexus10: You mean some additional applications? | 11:50 |
| nexus10 | legate: on somne distros, | 11:50 |
| nexus10 | legate: there's a tools disk -- minimal boot, partition editor, reiserfstools etc | 11:51 |
| nexus10 | legate: if there is no ubuntu-specific one I'll take a gentoo one | 11:52 |
| jim_p | how can i configure my kde4 kdm themes and options? | 11:53 |
| legate | nexus10: Sorry, but I don't know anything about a Kubuntu "tools disk". | 11:54 |
| Barbadillo | legate: it is different the backtrace | 11:54 |
| nexus10 | legate: np, thank you. I'll plan on attempting to fix networking so I can retry the upgrade, and failing that will do fresh install | 11:54 |
| Barbadillo | legate: is something about libkcal... | 11:55 |
| legate | nexus10: Ok, no problem. | 11:55 |
| legate | Barbadillo: Then it's another bug. You may want to search the database for it and if you don't find it you can file a new report. | 11:55 |

| Paddy_EIRE | yes | 12:02 |
| Dragonmaster | I am running the older KDE. | 12:02 |
| legate | Paddy_EIRE: Please read http://www.kubuntu.org/news/kde-4.2. Section 8.10 (Intrepid) explains your problem. You can't install that package. | 12:03 |
| Paddy_EIRE | ah | 12:03 |
| Paddy_EIRE | legate: thank you for the info :) | 12:03 |
| Paddy_EIRE | I should read before I leap sometimes | 12:04 |
| legate | Paddy_EIRE: You're welcome. :) | 12:04 |
| Dragonmaster | Is there a command t find out what sound card is installed? | 12:04 |
| legate | Dragonmaster: It's possible that the update included your sound system. So you might want to wait until the update is finished and then reboot. | 12:05 |
| Paddy_EIRE | so I take it a purge of koffice and autoremove are in order | 12:05 |
| Dragonmaster | Okay legate. | 12:05 |
| Dragonmaster | Thank you. | 12:05 |

| Paddy_EIRE | :/ | 12:09 |
| Paddy_EIRE | gah.. and the damn icons are still listed in lancelot.. I must reload the DE | 12:10 |
| legate | Paddy_EIRE: Interesting. But you're quite right, removing koffice and running autoremove is ok, I think. | 12:10 |

| syockit | what sound device is it using | 12:53 |
| nargzul | Automatic ^^ | 12:54 |
| nargzul | but the sound system is xine | 12:54 |
| dragonmaster | Did I say/do something wrong? | 12:54 |
| dragonmaster | I am getting no help. | 12:54 |
| Dr_willis | People pop in and out all day | 12:55 |
| Dr_willis | lag/dissconects/dog on fire... | 12:55 |

| ipe | I have kubuntu 8.10 and my keyboard has no caps lock light to show up if its on or off.is there any kind of widget or something to do that job | 12:58 |
| dragonmaster | brb | 12:58 |
| sandGorgon | syockit: i hope you have unmuted ALL devices using "alsamixer -Dhw" | 12:59 |
| khalidmian | can one add google gadgets to plasmoids | 12:59 |
| Dr_willis | ipe, ive seen some things.. but not sure if theres any that are kde4 specific. | 12:59 |
| Dr_willis | khalidmian, from what i read in the release notes.. yes. | 13:00 |
| syockit | sandGorgon: shouldn't that be dragonmaster? | 13:00 |
| Dr_willis | khalidmian, but ive never seen it done | 13:00 |
| sandGorgon | oh yeah .. sorry | 13:00 |
| dragonmaster | Yes? | 13:00 |
| sandGorgon | dragonmaster: [18:29] <sandGorgon> syockit: i hope you have unmuted ALL devices using "alsamixer -Dhw" | 13:00 |
| khalidmian | Dr_willis: pls provide link on release notes | 13:00 |
| syockit | nargzul: so is there sound in amarok with alsa selected? | 13:01 |
| Dr_willis | khalidmian, the url in the topic is what i read. and followed. | 13:01 |
| syockit | nargzul: you probably need to exit it first, then run it again | 13:01 |
| nargzul | syockit: so an idea? I've tested all drivers in amarok, and only the alsa don't make a driver error, and I've always no sounds | 13:01 |
| nargzul | ok | 13:01 |
| Dr_willis | khalidmian, they even had some videos. showing the features..but i dident watch them all. | 13:01 |
| khalidmian | Dr_willis: sorry what url | 13:01 |
| syockit | also, try sandGordo's solution | 13:01 |
| dragonmaster | Nothing is on mute. Fresh install and updates. No sound. | 13:01 |
| Dr_willis | khalidmian, the one in this channels TOPIC.. KDE 4.2 out .................. | 13:02 |
| sandGorgon | nargzul: same thing for you, i hope you have unmuted ALL devices using "alsamixer -Dhw".. dont depend on the UI | 13:02 |
| syockit | dragonmaster: yeah, actually that's a hardware problem | 13:02 |
| dragonmaster | I was able to get 1024x768 screen working via System Settings - Monitor setup. | 13:02 |
| syockit | dragonmaster: acer aspire users are also facing the same problem | 13:02 |
| syockit | not Dr_williss tho | 13:02 |
| nargzul | syockit: no sound after reboot | 13:03 |
| sandGorgon | ubuntu 8.10 has a bug in which certain sound devices are muted by default on a clean install | 13:03 |
| nargzul | sandGorgon: ok I will try this | 13:03 |
| dragonmaster | I have some old PCI sound blaster/Sound Blaster wannabe cards. Will those work? | 13:03 |
| syockit | hee hee vintage! might work | 13:03 |
| Dr_willis | syockit, what issue? got my AAO right here. :) | 13:03 |
| nargzul | sandGorgon: How do we see if anything is muted? | 13:04 |
| syockit | You know, that "no sound in Aspire" thing last time | 13:04 |
| Dr_willis | dragonmaster, are they real soudnblaster cards? | 13:04 |
| syockit | not aspire one tho | 13:04 |
| Dr_willis | syockit, :) ok. My AAO runs linux great. Using EEebuntu on it righ now | 13:04 |
| sandGorgon | nargzul: you will see MM below a column.. you need to go on it and press "M" to mute/unmute it | 13:05 |
| syockit | nargzul: right click on volume control on system tray. select show mixer. click mixer button | 13:05 |
| dragonmaster | A couple are, yes. | 13:05 |
| khalidmian | Dr_willis: didnt find any info there except for 4.2 info | 13:05 |
| dragonmaster | Sound Blaster PCI 128 | 13:05 |
| ubuntu_ | francais | 13:06 |
| ubuntu_ | french | 13:06 |
| nargzul | so MM is muted? and 00 is unmuted? | 13:06 |
| ubuntu_ | kubuntu french | 13:06 |
| sandGorgon | you need to unmute and then press the up arrow to increase. yes .. MM is muted | 13:06 |

| syockit | Hmm, I can work that out a bit. Ce=the, canal=channel, est=is, en=a, anglais=english, uniquement=one | 13:08 |
| nargzul | Ho ? It's works :D, I absolutely don't understand, I just mute and unmute the "CD" | 13:09 |
| syockit | StR|Sangreal: in System Settings, go to Regional and Language settings | 13:09 |
| StR|Sangreal | please, how can i switch my distro language to svk? | 13:09 |
| StR|Sangreal | ok i will try | 13:09 |

| nargzul | the demo sound of amarok works | 13:10 |
| nargzul | firefox too | 13:10 |
| syockit | nargzul: firefox? | 13:10 |
| syockit | nargzul: wow great! | 13:10 |
| sandGorgon | nargzul: :) so it pretty much is up | 13:10 |
| syockit | some things work mysteriously | 13:10 |
| sandGorgon | i have lost count of how many people I had to give this suggestion too.... hope someone fixes it by next beta! | 13:10 |
| nargzul | flash video in firefox ;) | 13:11 |
| syockit | StR|Sangreal: then install your language first, then select system language | 13:11 |
| syockit | sandGorgon: does that include muting and unmuting the CD? | 13:12 |
| nargzul | thanks an lot syockit and sandGorgon :D | 13:12 |
| nargzul | *a lot | 13:13 |
| sandGorgon | syockit: well my rule of thumb is to a) unmute everything b) to set "mic as output" to MUTE c) select a "Capture" device... and both sound and mic works! | 13:13 |
| syockit | hmm, that should be put on the wiki | 13:13 |
| ryxxed | if i do aptitude install firefox on my 64bit kubuntu, will i get the 64bit firefox or 32bit? | 13:13 |
| dzigy | kykysegi | 13:13 |

| mahmood | my kubuntuhave prolble | 13:26 |
| mahmood | problem with KDE 4.2 | 13:26 |
| syockit | salam, go on | 13:26 |
| mahmood | salam | 13:27 |
| NotSure | whats going on... went to the website and downloaded kde4.2 installed it and it had the little loading box reporting 4.1???? any help? | 13:27 |
| syockit | NotSure: how did you install? which website? | 13:28 |
| Dr_willis | I just followed the guide given iun the TOPIC.. and used apt-get update | 13:28 |
| NotSure | latest kde website.... fresh partition install | 13:28 |
| mahmood | yes | 13:28 |
| mahmood | from launchpad | 13:28 |
| Dr_willis | 'loadinb box' = the kde splash when it loads? check the about... info in a kde program.. | 13:29 |
| mahmood | yes | 13:30 |
| Dr_willis | thats just showing a graphics image that may not been updated | 13:30 |
| syockit | wait, I'm confused as to who said which? How many people are in this discussion? | 13:31 |
| mahmood | me | 13:31 |
| syockit | mahmood: which launchpad ppa did you download from? Have you restarted kde? | 13:32 |
| mahmood | by add this commond deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-experimental/ubuntu intrepid main | 13:33 |
| mahmood | yes | 13:33 |
| Dr_willis | deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-experimental/ubuntu intrepid main | 13:33 |
| Dr_willis | then apt-get update, upgrade.. | 13:33 |
| Dr_willis | I think thats all i did | 13:33 |
| syockit | don't forget to restart | 13:34 |
| mahmood | i did it | 13:35 |
| mahmood | but my kde 4.2 crashed when i open some program such as firefox | 13:36 |
| syockit | It restarts? to login screen? | 13:36 |
| mahmood | yes | 13:37 |
| ryxxed | anyway i can make my firefox fonts the same as kubuntu's | 13:37 |
| ryxxed | it's kind of annoying | 13:37 |
| NotSure_ | ok... I found the site I downloaded 4.2 from last night... It was as I suspected the official site... http://www.kubuntu.org/news/kde-4.2 and after install it was 4.1 in the little loading box during bootup | 13:38 |
| NotSure_ | and looks exactly lijke 4.1 | 13:38 |
| Dr_willis | You did use the package manager/apt-get ? | 13:39 |
| syockit | NotSure_: you did it exactly as said in the directions? | 13:39 |
| Dr_willis | NotSure, it does use you rold kde settings.. of course.. | 13:39 |
| cdavis | I am switching to kubuntu from ubuntu so sorry if this is obvious. I used tsclient a lot with ubuntu and cannot figure out how to get it into the panel on ubuntu? | 13:39 |
| mahmood | i have some problem with visual effect too | 13:40 |
| NotSure_ | no, I wanted to burn a copy for a friend at work | 13:40 |
| syockit | mahmood: what else crashes? can you start other apps, like amarok, etc | 13:40 |
| Dr_willis | burn a copy of what exactly? the Kubuntu.iso ? | 13:40 |
| NotSure_ | yeds | 13:40 |
| NotSure_ | yes | 13:40 |
| syockit | mahmood: it worked in 4.1? | 13:40 |
| Dr_willis | well.. the kubuntu iso files dont have 4.2 on them | 13:40 |
| mahmood | yes worked in 4.1 | 13:41 |
| NotSure_ | I burned kubuntu 4.2 iso,,, burned on disc,,, installed on fresh partition... reporting 4.1 on initial desktop boot screen | 13:41 |
| NotSure_ | looks and feels like 4.1 | 13:42 |
| mahmood | when i open 2 or more program crash will happen | 13:42 |
| Dr_willis | Theres a 4.2 iso for Kubuntu? thats amazing fast.. it just was lreleased like this week | 13:42 |
| syockit | now where have I heard this problem before... | 13:42 |
| mahmood | what this crash happen in kde 4.2? | 13:43 |
| syockit | Dr_willis: nope I don't think so... unless jaunty alpha is taken into consideration | 13:43 |
| Dr_willis | syockit, thats what i was thinking.. the Kubuntu CD iso images come with 4.1 - you must install then upgrade them to 4.2 if you want 4.2 | 13:43 |
| Dr_willis | Im not seeing any mention of a 4.2 iso at the kubuntu web site | 13:44 |
| cdavis | is there something like tsclient that I can use instead on kde? | 13:44 |
| NotSure_ | Ok,,, I may have stated it incorrectly... I went to the official kde site at the top of this screen and it is a kubuntu site with latest kde 4.2 iso download... I look at that as kubuntu kde 4.2... but what is the difference | 13:45 |
| NotSure_ | it still is suppose to be kde 4.2 | 13:45 |
| Dr_willis | reread the site. its NOT saying the iso file has kde 4.2 | 13:45 |
| Dr_willis | its saying 4.2 has been released as in the software... | 13:45 |
| syockit | mahmood: not sure. After crashing, please post your /var/log/kdm.log or /var/log/Xorg.0.log to a pastebin | 13:46 |
| Dr_willis | KDE 4.2 has been released. Users of our development Jaunty version can do a full upgrade to get the latest packages. Packages for 8.10 (Intrepid) are in the kubuntu-experimental PPA. | 13:46 |
| mahmood | syockit thanks maan | 13:47 |
| syockit | I guess they shouldn't put KDE 4.2 Released so big on the top | 13:47 |
| NotSure_ | ok... that was a very misleading website for a newer guy like me... I dont understand why they make it look like you are downloading 4.2 at that site... | 13:47 |
| NotSure_ | thanks for clearing it up for me | 13:47 |
| syockit | it was misleading for me too | 13:48 |
| Dr_willis | I find it very clear. :) | 13:49 |
| Dr_willis | 4.2 has been released.. ubunt/kubuntu does NOT do 'rolling upgrades' to newer versions like many other disrtos do | 13:49 |
| Dr_willis | 8.10 will have 4.1 untill the next release of kubuntu - then it wull be using 4.2 | 13:50 |
| === randagio is now known as randagio_ | ||
| Dr_willis | If you want 4.2 you do so 'at your own risk' :) its experimental | 13:50 |
| NotSure_ | any idea when the kubuntu should be released? | 13:51 |
| malv | the 4.2 packages seem a little crashy | 13:51 |
| malv | is it because of the packages or because of kde 4.2? | 13:51 |
| Dr_willis | Proberly both :) | 13:51 |
| syockit | NotSure_: next version will be released in april, if all goes well | 13:51 |
| syockit | now another one with 4.2 probs | 13:52 |
| malv | we need a 3 month release schedule, I cant wait that long | 13:52 |
| Dr_willis | 8.10 = 2008, 10th month.. 6 mo from then will be... the next release | 13:52 |
| Dr_willis | :) | 13:52 |
| Dr_willis | 8.16 :) | 13:52 |
| syockit | malv: now if' you're willing to maintain every releases | 13:52 |
| malv | we need a 9.02 | 13:52 |
| syockit | gosh, what do you need so many releases for? | 13:53 |
| malv | they should create two distros, one which releases every year and is supported for 3 years, and one that releases every three months and only the current version is supported | 13:53 |
| syockit | If you want stability, I'll doubt you can get it polished in short time | 13:53 |
| malv | three month idea is good because they can integrate in major features like new kernels and desktop environments | 13:54 |
| malv | they don't have to update everything, just the major features that everyone wants | 13:54 |
| malv | the primary audiences are: grandma, corporate, technogeek, and developer | 13:55 |
| Dr_willis | not going to happen any time soon i imagine | 13:55 |
| NotSure_ | thx | 13:55 |
| Dr_willis | If you want latest stuff theres the experimaneal repos and the PPA repos | 13:56 |
| syockit | how long should testing be? | 13:56 |
| malv | will the 4.2 experiemental repo keep up with the 4.2 patches, or do we need to wait till the next kde or kubuntu release to get the fixes? | 13:56 |
| syockit | say if you're going to support it until next-next version, that's only 6-month shelf0life | 13:56 |
| malv | which is fine, technogeeks usually update it the day it comes out | 13:57 |
| malv | grandma, not so much | 13:57 |
| itai | hi, is it possible to install kde 4.2 in hardy? | 13:57 |
| syockit | but testing is a great deal. you need to make sure it works | 13:57 |
| syockit | btw, all these are offtopic and should go to #ubuntu-offtopic | 13:58 |
| syockit | itai: sorry, no can do, unless you want to compile on your own | 13:58 |
| Dr_willis | and i doubt if any changes are going to happen in how the releases happen. :) | 13:58 |
| malv | i wouldn't expect it | 13:59 |
| === devan is now known as doates | ||
| doates | how can i install adobe flash | 13:59 |
| itai | syockit, is it a temporary thing , or i will never be able to run 4.2 on hardy? | 13:59 |
| syockit | itai: there are no plans to implement that in hardy | 13:59 |
| Dr_willis | doates, i tend to install 'kubuntu-restricted-extras' and it gets flash and other web type bits you proberly want also | 13:59 |
| failers | hmm i dont have any cds left and i got dual boot whit kubuntu and vista is it possible to somehow reinstall it all thru kubuntu so i only get 1 os? | 13:59 |
| syockit | itai: but you can, however, temporarily enable repos for later ubuntu version and install it. expect major breakage | 14:00 |
| malv | turns out my flash troubles were because pcm was muted | 14:00 |
| malv | strange that pcm can be muted, but you can still get the desktop sounds | 14:00 |
| asraniel | hi there. is there a particular reason why firefox is so badly integrated in kde? firefox never knows what application to use to open files (like torrent files with ktorrent etc) | 14:00 |
| syockit | failers: is it okay to delete vista? | 14:00 |
| Dr_willis | malv, could be it has the names of the 'mixers' messed up with main/pcm reversed | 14:00 |
| failers | thats was what i was trying todo syockit | 14:00 |
| failers | :P | 14:00 |
| ryxxed | it's okay if you burn it afterwards | 14:00 |
| ryxxed | and let out the evil microsoft spirits that reside in it with ancient voodoo | 14:01 |
| failers | i wanna remove vista and only keep kubuntu | 14:01 |
| blahjake | asraniel: strangely enough, i've found installing firefox-gnome-support makes it a bit better about that under kde as well | 14:01 |
| failers | but dont got any cds so i can burn kubuntu and reinstall it all | 14:01 |
| syockit | failers: then you can delete vista partition, move your partition to the beginning of disk, and resize it | 14:01 |
| ryxxed | personally, i'd overwrite zeros over that hard drive that has vista on it | 14:01 |
| ryxxed | and then format it sooo many times | 14:01 |
| itai | syockit, thanks, i'll give it a miss... | 14:01 |
| dragonmaster | Everything acts as if I have sound, but I don't hear anything. | 14:01 |
| Dr_willis | You can use Unetbootin or other ways to make a install-thumbdrive | 14:01 |
| syockit | failers: but if you still want to install, use a usb drive instead | 14:01 |
| failers | syockit i installed kubuntu thru wubi so vista and kubuntu is on same partition | 14:01 |
| syockit | ayyyy | 14:01 |
| ryxxed | don't use wubi | 14:01 |
| failers | syockit oh that is possible with usb stick? | 14:02 |
| blahjake | asraniel: you can also make a one-line shell script with this in it: kfmclient exec $1 | 14:02 |
| failers | :o | 14:02 |
| syockit | failers: yes. refer to dr_willisss | 14:02 |
| blahjake | asraniel: and when firefox doesn't know the association, use that to open and it will use the kde association | 14:02 |
| ryxxed | wubi causes more problems than it solves | 14:02 |
| failers | it installed my kubuntu atleast :) | 14:02 |
| * Dr_willis votes for wubi to be removed in the next release :) | 14:02 | |
| ryxxed | it's good for taking *buntu for a test drive | 14:03 |
| ryxxed | but after that it's useless | 14:03 |
| asraniel | blahjake: and where would that shellscript go and how should it be named? | 14:03 |
| Dr_willis | I have live cds that work better then wubi :) | 14:03 |
| failers | but Dr_willis then how to install from usb disk just copy all things on the iso to the usb or? i do know my computer is bootable from a usb but i dont know the part how to get kubuntu on it | 14:03 |
| dragonmaster | I have music playing in Amarok but no sound. | 14:03 |
| Dr_willis | failers, ------> You can use ' Unetbootin' or other ways to make a install-thumbdrive | 14:04 |
| asraniel | blahjake: ah, i got it | 14:04 |
| syockit | failers: check out unetbootin | 14:04 |
| ryxxed | failers : as it has already been stated : unetbootin | 14:04 |
| failers | oki i will thx | 14:04 |
| Dr_willis | I always use unetbootin now a days | 14:04 |
| ryxxed | dragonmaster : uh, turn your volume up | 14:04 |
| dragonmaster | Nevermind. Seems I didn't have headphones going. lol | 14:04 |
| ryxxed | haha | 14:04 |
| syockit | cool, there's also http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Live_USB_creator | 14:04 |
| Dr_willis | syockit, yep. that works very well also. | 14:05 |
| Dr_willis | but im not sure if you can dothat from the live cd. :) | 14:05 |
| syockit | I think it won't survive wikipedia notability | 14:05 |
| failers | Currently the tool is only available for Ubuntu, but Windows and KDE versions are planned | 14:05 |
| syockit | no, he can do it from wubi kubuntu | 14:05 |
| ryxxed | This is a harmless program [citation needed]. | 14:05 |
| dragonmaster | Linux is getting much better. lol | 14:05 |
| failers | so didnt help me but im downloading unetbootin now anyway :P | 14:05 |
| Dr_willis | [citation needed].[citation needed]. on the [citation needed]. | 14:06 |
| Dr_willis | unetbootin - can even download the iso and mke the bootable thumbdrive auomatcally | 14:06 |
| syockit | failers: I thought you have kubuntu on the windows? | 14:06 |
| syockit | you can run it from that kubuntu | 14:06 |

| ryxxed | install kde afterwards? | 14:07 |

| ssj4Gogeta | This is the first time I'm on an IRC. So it's like a chatroom? | 14:08 |
| failers | damn unetbottin was a cool and easy software :o | 14:09 |
| ryxxed | no, it's like google | 14:09 |
| Dr_willis | IRC is the ORIGINAL chatrooms :) | 14:09 |
| Dr_willis | unless you call newsgroups chatrooms.. :) | 14:09 |
| ssj4Gogeta | ok thanks :) | 14:10 |
| Dr_willis | but those are not quite the same.. | 14:10 |
| syockit | I, who came from earlier internet age, don't know of existence of other chatroom apps | 14:10 |
| ryxxed | yahoo chatroom and so on, so on | 14:10 |
| ssj4Gogeta | I've used chatrooms in yahoo instant messenger | 14:10 |
| Dr_willis | I recall compiling IRC (the original irc client called IRC) ages ago :) | 14:10 |
| Dr_willis | and irc chatting on 'greenbar' printing terminals | 14:10 |
| failers | haha | 14:11 |

| doates | Error is | 14:14 |
| doates | APT Error. Context: | 14:14 |
| doates | Package download failed, | 14:14 |
| doates | I wasn't able to locate a file for the flashblock package. This might mean you need to manually fix this package. (due to missing arch) | 14:14 |
| gilles__ | i'm using kde 4.2 | 14:14 |
| Dr_willis | I dont use flashblock. or i install it from the firefox extensions sit eon a per user case.. so NO idea on that. | 14:14 |
| ssj4Gogeta | cool. I'm new to Linux and I discovered I can do pretty much everything in Kubuntu which I can do in Windows except gaming. I haven't even booted into Windows since I got Kubuntu running properly | 14:14 |

| Kyran | but I get an error on package libpcre3 | 15:01 |
| Kyran | apt-get says the size doesn't match | 15:01 |
| failers | do i ever need to reboot ubuntu when installing new updates / software unless itself tells me that i should? | 15:02 |
| Kyran | it depends on what's upgraded | 15:03 |
| Kyran | for normal apps you shouldn't | 15:03 |
| Kyran | but a new kernel won't be loaded until you reboot | 15:03 |
| failers | ye but a new kernel update usually makes kubuntu say that i need to reboot :P | 15:03 |
| failers | or atleast i think so | 15:03 |
| Kyran | I'm still on 3.5, and it never tells me to reboot :) | 15:04 |
| failers | hm ok | 15:04 |
| failers | oh well 1 minute here and there i doesnt hurt to reboot i guess :P | 15:04 |

| lokai | no -- didn't work. | 15:23 |
| lokai | still have the same problem | 15:23 |

| william_ | BluesKaj, that has NEVER worked in kde 4 | 15:29 |
| BluesKaj | actully it's easier to share in linux than it is in windows , I do both | 15:29 |
| william_ | When I click on the Share tab I have the option Configure File Sharing | 15:29 |
| william_ | it prompt me for admin pass | 15:29 |
| BluesKaj | kde 4 isn't much different than kde3 , in terms of useage | 15:30 |
| Kyran | I still recommend and install kde3.5 | 15:30 |
| william_ | I select the folder I want to share and share it with write privileges. | 15:30 |
| Kyran | I haven't been able to get 4 running smoothly enough for a non geek to able to work with it | 15:30 |
| william_ | the reason I does not work is because it does not do any user or group forcing | 15:30 |
| BluesKaj | use your normal pw, william_ | 15:31 |
| william_ | yes, I use my password and share the folder but I can't write to the folder | 15:31 |

| nargzul | Hi again, anybody knows which package I must install to have debug information when a programm crash? | 15:34 |

| william_ | kio samba | 15:34 |
| Kyran | you'll get a stacktrace if it craches | 15:34 |
| BluesKaj | william , make sure your folders on the other networked pcs are shared as well | 15:35 |
| william_ | ok | 15:35 |
| william_ | what next? | 15:35 |
| BluesKaj | william_ , most samba clients will see those commands | 15:36 |
| BluesKaj | now , try smb:/ in konq | 15:36 |
| william_ | yup | 15:37 |
| william_ | I can see my computer in my workgroup | 15:37 |
| william_ | now how do I share my desktop folder | 15:37 |
| BluesKaj | william_ , /home/yourusername/edit/properties/share tab/configure sharing | 15:39 |
| nargzul | Kyran: it's for programm like kwin :/ | 15:39 |
| Kyran | those tend to leave logs if they crach | 15:40 |
| Kyran | check /var/log/ | 15:40 |
| DaSkreech | Ok just had an unexpected power down | 15:41 |
| william_ | Bluekaj, I have done that and I can see my folder listed under the shares | 15:41 |
| DaSkreech | now plasma can't find 1/4 of my widgets | 15:41 |
| DaSkreech | Anyone have any clue how to get them back? | 15:41 |
| nargzul | Kyran: we can't find any stack trace to report a bug :( | 15:44 |
| Kyran | there's a bunch of logs in there | 15:45 |
| william_ | samba is so bad | 15:45 |
| Kyran | if a system critical component fails, you're going to able to read about it in one of them | 15:45 |
| Kyran | if I don't know what the crash is, then I can't really point you to anything more specific | 15:45 |
| william_ | samba does not like gui | 15:46 |
| nargzul | Kyran: yes but it doesn't really help to know how to debug after | 15:47 |

| william_ | do I need to add a samba user or something? | 15:49 |
| william_ | I have set a samba password | 15:49 |
| william_ | isn't it supposed to just use the system users? | 15:49 |
| william_ | and when I login to my account from another computer why does it not run as the user I just loged in as | 15:49 |

| mofux | is there a kde4-window-decorator (compiz) available for 4.2 ? the package compiz-kde doesn't work because of unmet dependencies | 15:51 |
| Kyran | why would you want compiz for the kde4 series? | 15:53 |

| gorgonzola | herllo, i'm trying to setup GCaldaemon to use my google calendar in kontcat. first of all, isn't there a more straigthforward way? ie, a kubuntu package that would allow me to do this? and if not, what is the normal procedure to manually add a daemon to the system? | 15:53 |
| mofux | Kyran: kwin runs way too slow to use for me | 15:54 |
| gorgonzola | ie, what group? where do i put the link for autostart on boot, etc/init.d/? etc. | 15:54 |
| yago | hi does anyone know how to inyect packages with ipw2200? | 15:54 |
| genii | william_: Samba user list can be totally different than system user list even if you have syncing the two as preference. Add a samba user by: sudo smbpasswd -ae username and use the same passwd as the system name. | 15:54 |
| mofux | i'd like to use it though if it would run at good speed | 15:54 |
| Kyran | mofux: running it on an nvidia card? | 15:54 |
| mofux | nope, radeon 9800, using the OS radeon driver | 15:55 |
| Kyran | try using the fglrx drivers | 15:55 |
| mofux | i did before, same | 15:55 |
| Kyran | iirc the os drivers don't have 3d acceleration | 15:55 |
| mofux | they do have | 15:55 |
| gorgonzola | yes, they do | 15:55 |
| genii | william_: You will need restart of samba before changes take effect | 15:55 |
| Kyran | ah, I never got 3d working smooth with them, so I guessed it didn't support it | 15:56 |
| gorgonzola | i just reinstalled my box, and the radeon driver enabled kwin effects without flaw | 15:56 |
| Kyran | it's best to look if you can tweak your xorg.conf first | 15:56 |
| mofux | i have no flaws either, but it's running only about 18 fps | 15:56 |
| mofux | and feels sloppy | 15:56 |
| mofux | i could track it down to be the shadows plugin | 15:57 |
| mofux | if i disable it i get 50fps | 15:57 |
| Kyran | there we go :) | 15:57 |
| Kyran | kwin can be sped up a lot by picking the right settings | 15:57 |
| Kyran | there's some interesting blog posts to be found about that | 15:57 |
| thinkgnu | how can i add exprimental repository in adept ? in which tab is it in Software Sources | 15:57 |
| mofux | Kyran: i know, i already talked to the kwin dev | 15:57 |
| Kyran | then you're way better informed than I am ;) | 15:58 |
| Kyran | I've been trying to get good performance out of kwin on my laptop with an nvidia card, but no luck so far | 15:58 |
| mofux | well... that's why i want to install compiz-kde :) | 15:58 |
| thinkgnu | is it in UPDATES tab ? | 15:58 |
| Kyran | thinkgnu: 3rd party tab | 15:58 |
| Kyran | then just type in deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-experimental/ubuntu intrepid main | 15:59 |

| Kyran | repost: I'm having some problems installing kde 4.2 on a clean system | 16:01 |
| Kyran | I keep getting the error that the libpcre3 package does not have the correct size | 16:01 |
| william_ | god, I now tried SWAT to configure samba and that doesn't work without a root password! | 16:01 |
| genii | Kyran: Then delete from /var/cache/apt/archives the partially d/l or corrupt packagename there of libpcre3 | 16:03 |
| Kyran | I've already tried running apt-get clean | 16:04 |
| Kyran | but that didn't help | 16:04 |
| neothecat | is there a way in kmail using IMAP to just check "INBOX" and not any other folders during interval email checking? | 16:06 |
| genii | Kyran: clean will only delete packages there which are setup already, etc. If they are pending or so it won't delete a packaname it finds there in that case. | 16:07 |
| genii | Kyran: You need to manually rm the corrupt file | 16:07 |

| elgordo123 | using kde 4.2 kubuntu packages | 16:09 |
| bobbob1016_ | I just installed kubuntu-desktop alongside my ubuntu (gnome), how can I keep them separate, as in now in gnome, when I open a folder it uses Dolphin, I want gnome programs to open in gnome, and kde ones in kde, any ideas? | 16:11 |
| Kyran | genii: I removed the file, but it didn't help | 16:15 |
| Kyran | it still says the filesize doesn't match | 16:15 |
| zicada | i gotta say, i dont think ive ever seen fonts this good in firefox using linux | 16:17 |
| zicada | http://zic.darktech.org/zicada/win.png | 16:17 |
| BluesKaj | bobbob1016_ , did you choose kde desktop at login ? | 16:18 |
| Unksi | zicada: me neither, kde <3 :) | 16:18 |
| genii | Kyran: Do you have a mix of repositories from different dists perhaps? | 16:19 |
| bobbob1016_ | BluesKaj, No | 16:19 |
| Kyran | nope | 16:19 |
| Unksi | thats actually what ive always seen with kde4 :) (except with gtk apps in the first kde 4 releases) | 16:19 |
| Kyran | I've got kubuntu 8.10 defaults | 16:19 |
| zicada | you'll notice thats firefox though | 16:19 |
| Kyran | kukuntu-members-kde4 | 16:19 |
| Unksi | ye | 16:19 |
| Kyran | and kubuntu-experimental | 16:19 |
| zicada | yeah the default 8.10 in kde4.2 are excellent | 16:20 |
| zicada | but in firefox it makes you weep blood | 16:20 |
| zicada | heh | 16:20 |
| BluesKaj | bobbob1016_ , if you have both kde and gnome desktops installed , then you must decide which one you want to use at the login menu. Which is the default if you don't choose ? | 16:20 |
| genii | Kyran: PErhaps comment out experimental, sudo apt-get update then try install of it again | 16:20 |
| Unksi | ye, tho lately its been ok too :) | 16:21 |
| genii | Kyran: Could you pastebin result of: apt-cache policy libpcre3 this may tell what repos | 16:21 |
| Kyran | the thing is that I want to install kde4.2 | 16:21 |
| Kyran | which is experimental | 16:21 |
| bobbob1016_ | BluesKaj, I chose gnome. What I mean is in gnome, I want nautilus to open when I open a folder, in kde I want dolphin. However now in gnome, I get dophin opening folders. | 16:22 |
| Kyran | is *in experimental | 16:22 |
| === oobe_ is now known as oobe | ||
| genii | Kyran: If different vers are listed by the apt-cache policy command, you can force a specific version in the install line | 16:23 |
| Kyran | could you tell me how I do that | 16:23 |
| Kyran | (I need to reboot this system to try this out) | 16:24 |
| genii | Kyran: eg: if policy reports something like: Candidate: 7.4-1ubuntu2.1 then: sudo apt-get install libpcre3=7.4-1ubuntu2.1 | 16:25 |
| Kyran | ok thanks | 16:25 |
| === oobe_ is now known as oobe | ||
| Kyran | and lets reboot again | 16:26 |
| BluesKaj | bobbob1016_, dunno much about nautilus or gnome ingeneral , but I prefer konq as my file manager, not dolphin | 16:27 |
| failers | what is kubuntus texteditor called i only know ubuntus "gedit" :o | 16:27 |
| bobbob1016_ | BluesKaj, Either way, I want to keep kde out of my gnome and vice versa | 16:28 |
| bobbob1016_ | failers, kate if memory serves | 16:28 |
| failers | oki | 16:28 |
| failers | yap it was kate | 16:28 |
| failers | thx | 16:28 |

| sigma_za | where is the proper weather plasmoid for kde4.2? the current lcd one really doesnt work properly | 16:30 |

| KDesk | hi, I have an ipod and I want to transfer music in AAC to it. Before I had used m4a, but I think AAC may be better. But when I try to transfer them, Amarok says that the media doesn't support the tracks. What can I do? | 16:34 |
| Kyran | which causes the error | 16:34 |
| KDesk | noaXess: You can get oo.o 3 from a PPA repo. | 16:34 |
| Kyran | "unable to fetch ... libpcre3 ... file size mismatch" | 16:34 |
| cbwcjw | noaXess: On the time of intrepids release, openoffice.org v3 was considered expiremental. Therefore, they have kept it in an experimental repo until version 9.04. | 16:35 |
| noaXess | KDesk: ok | 16:36 |
| KDesk | noaXess: https://launchpad.net/~openoffice-pkgs/+archive/ppa | 16:36 |
| genii | Kyran: OK. It may be the specific file is currently being worked on by the devs or so. Another alternative is to use web browser to navigate to the repo, download the file manually, and use dpkg to instaqll it | 16:36 |
| noaXess | KDesk: ok.. | 16:36 |
| niteye | whats the difference between the kubuntu DVD and the Live CD? | 16:37 |
| KDesk | niteye: the DVD has what the cd has, and many more packages. | 16:38 |
| Kyran | genii how can I see that the package is being worked on? | 16:38 |
| genii | Kyran: Offhand I'm not sure there is a direct way. Other than maybe check creation times on the file if you see a listing in the web browser of the directory it is in | 16:39 |
| * bizkit is back. | 16:41 | |

| Kyran | I was looking in l | 16:43 |
| genii | Kyran: Heh, me too at first | 16:43 |
| Kyran | so installing that is dpkg -install blabla.deb ? | 16:43 |

| cbwcjw | KDesk: Ill do that now :D | 16:55 |
| KDesk | cbwcjw: and you can also remove gdm, then I think it will use kdm. | 16:55 |
| KDesk | cbwcjw: ah, did you restarted X? with Alt+D in GDM? | 16:55 |
| KDesk | cbwcjw: or CTRL+ALT+BACKSPACE, then it should switch to kdm | 16:56 |

| Kyran | genii thanks again for all the tips | 17:35 |
| Aison | hello | 17:35 |
| Kyran | installing the downloaded package did the trick | 17:36 |
| Aison | everytime I terminate my kde, knotify crashes and kde hangs | 17:36 |
| genii | Kyran: Glad to be of service :) | 17:36 |
| Kyran | I've got kde 4.2 running now :) | 17:36 |
| Aison | I have to do CTRL+ALT+BACKSPACE to get into kdm and shutoff my machine | 17:36 |
| lovre | failers: click on the icon in the upper right corner, and click Add Widgets, or Unlock Widgets if they are locked first. In the list that shows up select Folder View, and click Add Widget. Now click on the widget that appeared on the desktop, and there will be a small setting icon by the side. Click it and enter /home/username/Desktop, if its not allready set up like that. | 17:36 |
| Aison | it was in kde3, no it's also in kde4 | 17:36 |
| Kyran | I must say I'm impressed with 4.2 | 17:37 |
| failers | ah ok lovre thx | 17:37 |
| Kyran | it's running extremely smooth on this 5 year old machine with integrated graphics card | 17:37 |
| Kyran | (I did do the kde-core install and manually installed the other apps I needed) | 17:37 |
| failers | :( kubuntu aint running especially smooth on my laptop | 17:39 |
| yafs | hi there, how do i change my graphics driver in kubuntu 8.10 because the xorg.conf is no longer in use and the option in the guibased systemmanagment is not there in 8.04 it was easy but at the moment i chat find it | 17:40 |
| Kyran | the performance of kde4 seems to greatly depend on your graphics card drivers | 17:41 |
| lovre | failers: np | 17:41 |
| failers | Kyran ok doubt its my graphic card's performance but driver could it be | 17:41 |
| lovre | i have a problem with archive tools, i cant find any that would integrate with dolphin.... :( any ideas how to fix this? | 17:41 |
| Kyran | failers is it an nvidia card? | 17:44 |
| failers | ye | 17:44 |
| failers | geforce 9600 gt | 17:44 |
| Kyran | join the club then, i've got the same in my laptop | 17:44 |
| failers | :D | 17:44 |
| Kyran | and it's not working good either | 17:44 |
| failers | have you tryed newest driver from nvidia? | 17:44 |
| failers | was about to do that now | 17:44 |
| Kyran | it's been a while since I updated that | 17:45 |
| failers | ok | 17:45 |
| Kyran | the last drivers I put on were an improvement | 17:45 |
| Kyran | so if you haven't, do install the latest drivers | 17:45 |
| failers | well i got 176 right now | 17:45 |
| Kyran | I found some blogposts on what xorg.conf options you could put to get better performance too | 17:45 |
| failers | ok | 17:46 |
| Kyran | I think my laptop runs 177 | 17:46 |

| WishingMaster | jacobw-uk, i am sorry for that | 18:15 |
| Muzer | mefisto__: Yeah, that's what I want | 18:15 |
| ubuntu_ | umm | 18:16 |
| ubuntu_ | hola? | 18:16 |
| mefisto__ | first we find out the names of your soundcards: cat /proc/asound/modules | 18:16 |
| ubuntu_ | oh | 18:16 |
| ubuntu_ | hi | 18:16 |
| Muzer | 0 snd_hda_intel | 18:17 |

| Muzer | 1 saa7134_alsa | 18:17 |

| Muzer | mefisto__: I want to set what is currently device 2 to be default | 18:18 |
| ubuntu_ | is someone out there? | 18:18 |
| mefisto__ | Muzer: at the end of that file, add options saa7134_alsa index=0 | 18:19 |
| mefisto__ | Muzer: "options saa7134_alsa index=0" on one line (no quotes) | 18:19 |
| ubuntu_ | i need some help with the installation CD!!! | 18:19 |
| alkerzor1 | hm, i just let synpatic decide what to do for me and marked those broken packages for reinstallation. Kubuntu's is like magic. Thanks for your helps guys! | 18:19 |

| ubuntu_ | umm | 18:20 |
| mefisto__ | Muzer: then save, and reboot. that should do it. let me know | 18:20 |
| ubuntu_ | can someone help me? please | 18:20 |

| Heliodor | failers: Just do the normal ubuntu upgrade | 18:26 |
| JackWinter | WishingMaster: no, i'm still on 2.6.26 :) | 18:26 |
| Heliodor | failers: i had one time that it failed to start kdm, but i just had to login in the terminal, stop, it and run it again and it loaded correctly | 18:26 |
| mefisto__ | Muzer: sudo modprobe -r <modulename> removes the module | 18:27 |
| failers | Heliodor hm ok | 18:27 |
| failers | tryed that but didnt start still | 18:27 |
| mefisto__ | Muzer: and I think sudo modprobe <modulename> loads them again | 18:27 |
| WishingMaster | JackWinter, how would you go ahead to install the latest kernel? | 18:27 |
| Heliodor | failers: Hmm, have you tried reloading to default nvidia settings? I think the config settings has changed in 180 drivers | 18:28 |
| failers | well i just booted in recovery and did deconfx or what the command was called so now its running again atleast | 18:28 |
| JackWinter | WishingMaster: i use the repositories, but i supppose if you want the absolute latest you'd have to svn the source and configure build it yourself... | 18:29 |
| Muzer | mefisto__: It's in use | 18:29 |
| Heliodor | failers: sudo dpkg-reconfigure nvidia-settings | 18:29 |
| failers | ok | 18:29 |
| ubuntu_ | i'm getting confused by all this @.@ | 18:29 |
| WishingMaster | JackWinter, thats what i am asking for,the repository address? | 18:29 |
| mefisto__ | Muzer: try this: sudo alsa force-unload | 18:30 |
| mefisto__ | Muzer: then try the modprobe commands again | 18:30 |
| JackWinter | WishingMaster: i don't know :) maybe google is your friend | 18:31 |
| WishingMaster | JackWinter, yeah | 18:31 |
| failers | Heliodor i think its working now some way to check if 180 is installed corectly ? | 18:34 |
| mefisto__ | Muzer: back in 5 min | 18:34 |
| Muzer | mefisto__: I think that worked, let me check | 18:36 |

| aboSamoor | Heliodor: removing then installing that package brings many errors http://paste.ubuntu.com/111833/ | 19:54 |
| mefisto__ | numunumu: don't know. I guess it depends on what is interpreting the filenames and what rules/conventions that uses | 19:55 |
| numunumu | dang | 19:55 |
| subscious | mefisto__ yeah ... i am trying to set up my second monitor but it isnt working .... i think its because it cant save the xorg.conf file or sth | 19:55 |

| aboSamoor | Heliodor: do you know what is the problem ? because till now I can not understand what is going on ? | 20:00 |
| Heliodor | aboSamoor: I am not exacly sure about what the problem is, i have had dependency problems before in ubuntu and debian but never acctually managed to solve them. Itś like, you solve one problem and by solving it you cause more problems. Something about package incompability and different repositories. | 20:01 |
| Heliodor | aboSamoor: example, i install a version from the standard repository and then some packages from a new one, then some old package depends on the old version but got replaced by a new version and then the problems just spin furhter. | 20:02 |

| RobertLaptop | mefiesto_ that is why I use Nvidia and intel. Intel because it comes on everything on it works fine for basic use. and Nvidia when I need better graphics. | 20:51 |
| RobertLaptop | So mefisto__ you have used 4.2 is it worth the upgrade and with Nvidia drivers will it likely run well? | 20:53 |
| mefisto__ | RobertLaptop: it's definitely better than 4.1 but I have only used it with ati and an old laptop with intel video | 20:55 |

| mefisto__ | cdavis: don't know about single click, but F6 selects the location bar | 21:17 |
| mefisto__ | there's a repo for amarok 2 somewhere | 21:18 |

| JontheEchidna | Danu: in any application go to help -> about kde | 22:37 |

| Danu | Thanks Mr. JontheEchidna. it says : Versión 4.2.00 (KDE 4.2.0) , i guess that is the las one, right? | 22:38 |

| blahjake | ibeekman: sorry i wasn't clear, meant the command | 22:41 |
| snikker | JontheEchidna: i've installed digikam from ppa | 22:41 |
| ibeekman | rigth but it gives me all the aliases which makes parsing difficult | 22:41 |
| blahjake | ibeekman: do you intend to handle the undefined condition? | 22:42 |
| blahjake | ibeekman: if not, just: host -t a <host> | head -n 1 | 22:42 |
| ibeekman | I am writting a script which checks if I am connected through a certain vpn host by parsing trace -n and looking for the ip address | 22:42 |
| blahjake | ibeekman: so you expect a particular ip then? | 22:43 |
| ibeekman | right but there are multiple machines or interfaces aliased to the host name/domain name | 22:44 |
| ibeekman | so I want to look up the ip addresses of vpn.princeton.edu | 22:45 |
| ibeekman | and compare the ip address from route -n to it | 22:45 |
| blahjake | ibeekman: so you want to extract a single ip for vpn.princeton.edu, is that correct? | 22:47 |
| blahjake | ibeekman: host -t a vpn.princeton.edu | grep 'has address' | 22:48 |
| ibeekman | yeah thats probably what its going to come down to. Gonna use sed to strip the ip of the other text. | 22:49 |

| joshuajtl | hi, can anyone tell me where I can download kubuntu live with kde 4.2 ? | 22:50 |
| === chinmay is now known as ssj4Gogeta | ||
| joshuajtl | I've read other people have it | 22:50 |
| ibeekman | I'm just worried that I may be connected to a certain machine and when I do host -t a vpn.princeton.edu it will return (possibly) a different machines ip address | 22:50 |
| ibeekman | joshuajtl: http://www.kubuntu.org/getkubuntu/download | 22:51 |
| mefisto__ | joshuajtl: you need kubuntu intrepid 8.10, then upgrade to kde 4.2 as per the link in topc | 22:51 |
| blahjake | ibeekman: as long as your dns server is the same it should be ok | 22:51 |
| mefisto__ | *topic | 22:51 |
| blahjake | ibeekman: some domains have multiple ips though, like google.com | 22:52 |
| joshuajtl | mefisto is that possible with the live version? | 22:53 |
| ibeekman | right so when i connect with vpn it will route me to a specific ip, and as far as i can tell theres no gaurantee that when i look up the domain name again it will be the same ip | 22:53 |
| joshuajtl | mefisto__: | 22:53 |
| ssj4Gogeta | !ibeekman | 22:53 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about ibeekman | 22:53 |
| ssj4Gogeta | :P | 22:53 |
| ibeekman | so is there a way to find all of them | 22:53 |
| mefisto__ | joshuajtl: I don't think so | 22:53 |
| joshuajtl | hmm, is there a version of jaunty available yet? | 22:53 |
| blahjake | ibeekman: true, in fact it just changed | 22:53 |
| === k410 is now known as k410_ | ||
| === k410_ is now known as psyJohnny | ||
| ibeekman | yeah so thats the issue. because route -n gives me an ip address which is not gauranteed to be the same if I am connected to the vpn as when we look it up | 22:54 |
| joshuajtl | anyone know if a version of jaunty iso with kde 4.2 is available for download? | 22:55 |
| mefisto__ | joshuajtl: similar for jaunty. you have to upgrade to kde 4.2, but for jaunty it will be in official repos | 22:55 |
| joshuajtl | i want to try 4.2 live before installing it | 22:55 |
| blahjake | ibeekman: from here, it appears to be swapping aliases between two machines | 22:55 |
| blahjake | ibeekman: try using vpn1.princeton.edu or vpn2.princeton.edu instead? | 22:56 |
| mefisto__ | joshuajtl: you might be able to upgrade the running livecd to 4.2 but I don't know how much RAM would be needed to do that | 22:56 |
| ibeekman | yeah i geuss I could just always vpn to the same machine | 22:57 |
| ibeekman | hold on i am looking into whois now | 22:57 |
| blahjake | whois, dig, and so on will all be very verbose with a lot of info you aren't interested in | 22:58 |
| joshuajtl | thx | 22:58 |
| ibeekman | ok well maybe i can create some cookies with my ip-up and ip down script which will tell me whether I am connected. | 22:59 |

| ibeekman | that may be a better route | 22:59 |

| Ms_Hutch | mefisto__, i have gone to kmix and had all channels show... all are turned up all the way and none are muted | 23:49 |
| mefisto__ | Ms_Hutch: the mic will probably be in the input tab, called mic or capture or something like that, depending on your soundcard | 23:49 |
| Ms_Hutch | mefisto__, i just set all input sources to mic and still same issue | 23:50 |
| bryan_ | hello all. after the computer updates. there is a command to restart bash(?) so, i dont have to totally reboot. | 23:52 |
| mefisto__ | Ms_Hutch: maybe install a program that can record audio, so you can make sure the mic input is working | 23:55 |
| mefisto__ | Ms_Hutch: eg audacity | 23:56 |
