| InfernoLinux | I really wish I could figure out whats wrong with konsole. | 00:34 |
| InfernoLinux | Anyone have ideas on where to start? | 00:34 |
| kaddi | kubu open your package manager (k-menu->system->package manager (adept)) | 00:35 |
| kubu | ? | 00:35 |
| kaddi | kubu: go to view, select software sources, select edit software sources, select third party and check the following two lines: | 00:35 |
| _zero | so, nobody knows anything about system tray not showing correct icons? | 00:36 |
| kaddi | sry, the following line: http://archive canonical.com/ubuntu jaunty partner | 00:36 |
| Barridus | _zero did you try and install kde 4.3? | 00:36 |
| Barridus | (not suggesting you should, but wondering if that's your issue) | 00:37 |
| _zero | Barridus: No, no, 4.2 here | 00:37 |
| kaddi | kubu: close that window and press "fetch current package lists" afterwards you should be able to find adobe reader by searching for acroread | 00:37 |
| phh | _zero: hum, i got that problem earlier, but it just fixed by itself | 00:38 |
| phh | _zero: you've made all updates ? | 00:38 |
| _zero | phh: ah, well... mine isn't :) | 00:38 |
| _zero | phh: not sure... I understand that 4.2.3 is still on ppa, right? | 00:38 |
| kubu | kaddi don't see acroread | 00:40 |

| ryann | hello! i am running kubuntu 9.10 (karmic) and can't seem to get wireless working under the management of kde-network-manager | 01:06 |
| ryann | are there any known issues? | 01:06 |
| LadyNikon | ryann: what do you mean you cant get it working? | 01:06 |
| LadyNikon | what happens? | 01:07 |
| ryann | well, the interface is detected | 01:07 |
| ryann | and is working with the b43 drivers | 01:07 |
| ryann | i have verified this with airodump | 01:07 |
| ryann | also, kde-network-manager lists aps | 01:08 |
| ryann | upon selecting any, i am prompted to authenticate | 01:08 |
| ryann | yet it never properly authenticates | 01:08 |
| ryann | just loops asking me for the wpa-psk | 01:08 |
| LadyNikon | is there actually wpa? | 01:08 |
| ryann | yes | 01:08 |
| ryann | mine here is wpa-psk | 01:09 |
| ryann | using AES | 01:09 |
| ryann | it had worked just prior to upgrading the distribution | 01:09 |
| LadyNikon | ah | 01:10 |
| LadyNikon | i had a similar issue in ubuntus manager.. | 01:10 |
| LadyNikon | but there was no wep. | 01:10 |
| ryann | i've even displaced my .kde directory and tried a new session | 01:10 |
| ryann | hoping it was perhaps a config or kwallet issue | 01:10 |
| occupant | wow, I'd just like to complain about the installer installing grub on a hard drive other than the one I installed on | 01:11 |
| occupant | I knew I should have unplugged my other drives first, but I really didn't think it would do something like that. lame, lame, lame | 01:11 |
| ryann | occupant, the kubuntu install wrote grub to the mbr of more than one physical disk? | 01:12 |
| LadyNikon | occupant: before you decided to complain are you sure that you didnt select something wrong by accident? | 01:12 |
| LadyNikon | occupant: have you filed a bug report? | 01:12 |
| occupant | installed on the mbr of my hackintosh drive, no grub on the ubuntu drive. I admittedly did easy settings and just specified drive | 01:14 |
| occupant | should I have done 'specify partitions' to set what happens with grub/mbr? | 01:14 |
| LadyNikon | i would have just to check and see | 01:15 |
| LadyNikon | but thats because i am overly cautious | 01:15 |

So I cheesed my way into getting my network configured and now I have wireless and wired connections. But konsole still wont post. what do I do? its just black | 01:33 |

| nameiner | flector: in Konsole, no su | 01:35 |
| flector | trying to close two uncloseable Tracker applets | 01:35 |
| InfernoLinux | flector you can type "ps ax" in console for a text based PID list, or you can press alt+f2 and type | 01:37 |
| InfernoLinux | flector "system monitor | 01:37 |
| InfernoLinux | " | 01:37 |
| InfernoLinux | flector I prefer system monitor because i like to look at realtime system usage | 01:37 |
| flector | not a big deal, can't seem to close it | 01:39 |
| InfernoLinux | sudo kill "pid number" | 01:39 |

| draik | jerware: I'm going to start doing the same thing and I don't know anything just yet about programming in Java, but I think you do. | 05:47 |
| genii | talaman: If the servicename exists in /etc/init.d directory, you can in Konsole: sudo /etc/init.d/service-name restart | 05:47 |
| draik | talaman: What service? The command is typically 'sudo /etc/init.d/SERVICE restart' without the quotes and SERVICE being the service to restart. | 05:47 |

| * draik is currently running irssi on Ubuntu Server 9.04 and thinking, 'GUI???' | 05:51 | |
| genii | draik: Hehe, I empathise | 05:51 |
| genii | talaman: I'm on kde3. But I find it there to be in System Settings..Advanced tab...System Services | 05:52 |
| talaman | isn't kubuntu using kde? | 05:52 |
| draik | talaman: New KDE is KDE4.2 | 05:52 |
| genii | talaman: Different versions of Kubuntu use different KDE versions | 05:52 |
| draik | talaman: genii is using KDE3, not KDE4.2 | 05:52 |
| talaman | yes, it would seem i upgraded and something got moved | 05:53 |
| talaman | yeah, i think i'm missing system services | 05:53 |
| talaman | i got a service manager, but it down't have any outside of kde | 05:54 |
| draik | talaman: Personally, nothing will ever beat CLI when it comes to true system management. That's my personal opinion, of course. | 05:55 |
| talaman | well with ubuntu you're probably right... or at least it's a one or the other | 05:56 |
| draik | Ubuntu uses GNOME, Kubuntu uses KDE. CLI is Terminal for Ubuntu and Konsole for Kubuntu. | 05:57 |
| talaman | i.e. if you are using cli don't expect it to translate to the gui and if you're using the gui don't expect it to translate to the cli | 05:57 |
| talaman | ubuntu, kubuntu, any buntu | 05:57 |
| talaman | all has the same issue | 05:57 |

| talaman | dang wish pclinuxos would work on the hd | 05:58 |
| talaman | that was truely the best linux | 05:59 |

| hjb | Mamarok: i think he would expext that working | 09:32 |
| Mamarok | hjb: then you will have to do the help I am afraid, at least for now | 09:32 |
| aftertaf | hjb: maybe get him a bookmark to online help? | 09:34 |
| aftertaf | and remind him that help not working is a lesser evil than needing for example an antivirus that eats resources | 09:35 |
| hjb | aftertaf: he was on linux before, but on suse 8 ;) | 09:36 |
| aftertaf | nice :) | 09:36 |
| Mamarok | hjb: then if he already knows how to use kmail he will find his way around, the apps are the same | 09:37 |
| aftertaf | surprising, in itself, but I stand happily corrected; | 09:37 |
| hjb | Mamarok: kmail hasn't changed? nice to know, as i'm not using it personally | 09:37 |
| Mamarok | aftertaf: if he uses Kmail then its kmail, regardless the deistribution | 09:37 |
| aftertaf | true... | 09:38 |
| Mamarok | hjb: well, the version is much newer, as Suse 8 ewas still running KDE 3.5 IIRC | 09:38 |
| aftertaf | just kde4 is different :) | 09:38 |
| aftertaf | there is bags of online help if he needs it; | 09:38 |
| Mamarok | and 9.04 uses KDE 4, but Kmail has gone better since, with a lot of bugfixes | 09:38 |
| hjb | aftertaf: but still better then convert him to gnome when he was used to kde3 before, i hope | 09:39 |
| aftertaf | yep | 09:39 |
| aftertaf | 4.1 was tough, now we're lokking goood | 09:39 |
| hjb | aftertaf: i'm personally not using kde at all, but right now, what i have seen so far looks nice :) | 09:40 |
| aftertaf | is kde 4.3 available anywhere, apart from project neon? | 09:40 |
| aftertaf | is IS... | 09:40 |
| aftertaf | it. | 09:40 |
| Mamarok | aftertaf: wait to see 4.3, it's gorgeous :) | 09:40 |
| Mamarok | aftertaf: yes, but only for experienced user, as there are dependency problems still with the packages | 09:40 |
| aftertaf | i have it from neon on my home PC... | 09:40 |
| aftertaf | --force-overwrite is my second nature :) | 09:40 |
| Mamarok | aftertaf: it's in the experimental repos | 09:41 |
| aftertaf | coooool | 09:41 |
| * aftertaf opens yakuake | 09:41 | |
| Mamarok | you have to open it? Doesn't it run in the background for you? ;) | 09:41 |
| aftertaf | F12 :) | 09:42 |
| Mamarok | aftertaf: don't know if it's in 4.3 yet though... | 09:42 |
| aftertaf | deb http:// is ppa kubuntu experimental? | 09:43 |
| aftertaf | cant find 4.3 :( | 09:43 |
| aftertaf | what sources.list do i need to add? | 09:44 |
| Mamarok | aftertaf: wait, I'll get the repo for you | 09:44 |
| aftertaf | cheers :) | 09:45 |
| aftertaf | im new to quassel too, how do i turn off the in/out notifications? | 09:45 |
| aftertaf | didnt find earlier | 09:45 |
| aftertaf | found :) | 09:46 |
| Mamarok | aftertaf: found the repo? | 09:46 |
| aftertaf | no, the hide :) | 09:46 |
| hjb | what i find is that this system is damn slow when doing a lot of disk i/o | 09:46 |
| hjb | anything to tune that? | 09:46 |
| aftertaf | sata? | 09:46 |
| Mamarok | aftertaf: https://edge.launchpad.net/~kubuntu-ppa/+archive/experimental | 09:47 |
| Mamarok | aftertaf: and you need a new key for that one too | 09:47 |
| aftertaf | ok. i am missing about 10 keys alrady :) | 09:48 |
| Mamarok | aftertaf: you reall should install it though, just to be sure | 09:48 |
| hjb | aftertaf: sata? was tat for me? | 09:48 |
| Mamarok | hjb: did you install the -dbg packages too? | 09:49 |
| hjb | Mamarok: no | 09:49 |
| Mamarok | ok, one source eliminated | 09:49 |

| Mamarok | hjb: how much ram and swap? | 09:49 |
| aftertaf | :) | 09:49 |
| hjb | Mamarok: 1 GB ram, 1GB swap | 09:50 |
| hjb | Mem: 1003204k total, 984680k used, 18524k free, 17800k buffers | 09:51 |
| hjb | Swap: 996020k total, 15108k used, 980912k free, 475052k cached | 09:51 |
| Mamarok | hjb: double the swap space I would say | 09:51 |
| Mamarok | hjb: below 4 GB RAM the rule is to use double the swap than the RAM | 09:52 |
| hjb | Mamarok: never heard of that rule so far... but ok, i'll give it a try | 09:52 |
| Mamarok | hjb: services running in the background that use CPU? | 09:52 |
| hjb | Mamarok: no | 09:53 |
| Mamarok | hjb: might be tricky to do if swap is between / and /home | 09:53 |
| hjb | Mamarok: no problem, i can shrink / | 09:54 |
| hjb | there's space left | 09:54 |
| Mamarok | hjb: good | 09:55 |
| Mamarok | double swap than ram is a rule here since ages :) | 09:55 |
| Mamarok | I have 4 GB RAM and 8 GB swap, but swap is very rarely used | 09:55 |
| Mamarok | but before with 2 GB on the other PC it was | 09:55 |
| aftertaf | upgrading :) | 09:58 |
| aftertaf | hope the network manager wifi works better :) | 09:59 |

| semcis | E: The list of sources coud not be shown | 10:02 |
| Mamarok | semcis: there's a typo in your sources list | 10:03 |
| Mamarok | or the serever you try to get packages from is down | 10:04 |
| semcis | ok....but....there is always a but, iam trying to get wine, that schoudent be any problem..? or not!.. | 10:05 |
| aftertaf | semcis: what is exactly on line 54 ? | 10:06 |
| Assurbanipal | hi guys, i am on kubuntu 9.04 with kde 4,3. i am facing very high cpu loads (above 80%) when i transfer files. can anybody tell me why this happens? | 10:06 |
| semcis | (sorry for the eng...) | 10:06 |
| semcis | dont now. =/ | 10:06 |
| Mamarok | semcis: wine is in the current repositories, you do not need an external one | 10:07 |
| semcis | ok | 10:07 |
| Mamarok | Assurbanipal: when did you install that? | 10:07 |
| Assurbanipal | when i installed what? | 10:09 |
| aftertaf | kde 4.3 | 10:09 |
| aftertaf | jaunty comes with 4.2 (release 3) | 10:09 |
| Assurbanipal | when it was released for kubuntu, i added the repo mentioned in kubuntu.org | 10:10 |
| Viking667 | Got a key-related problem I don't know how to solve. Every time I type "apt-get update" I get an error at the end, stating a key error: | 10:10 |
| Viking667 | W: GPG error: http://security.ubuntu.com jaunty-security Release: The following signatures were invalid: BADSIG 40976EAF437D05B5 Ubuntu Archive Automatic Signing Key <ftpmaster@ubuntu.com> | 10:10 |
| Viking667 | the last line suggests running "apt-get update" to fix the error. | 10:10 |
| aftertaf | semcis: you can open your sources.list with kate and press F11 to see the line numbers | 10:10 |
| semcis | ok..thanks! | 10:12 |
| Assurbanipal | Mamarok: any ideas? | 10:13 |
| Mamarok | Assurbanipal: you did an update since like 2 days ago? | 10:14 |
| Assurbanipal | yes, i updatedtoday too.. | 10:14 |
| Assurbanipal | Mamarok: and just repeated update, but nothing new to install... | 10:15 |
| Mamarok | Assurbanipal: I just tried here and my CPU behaves normally | 10:15 |
| Mamarok | Assurbanipal: what does top tell you? | 10:15 |
| aftertaf | well that went well.... just trashed my desktop config :) | 10:15 |
| Assurbanipal | Mamarok: http://pastebin.com/m418ac65b | 10:17 |
| Viking667 | oh, and there's a process going mad on my "top" - update-apt-xapi | 10:19 |
| Viking667 | What's that? | 10:19 |
| Mamarok | Assurbanipal: you have a python running for some particular task? That eats CPU a lot too | 10:19 |
| Mamarok | and you have a ntfs share | 10:19 |
| aftertaf | i saw that too.... :) | 10:19 |
| aftertaf | shouldnt it be mounted with fuse ? | 10:19 |
| aftertaf | Viking667: auto updating apt job i think | 10:20 |
| Assurbanipal | i don't really get all you say... | 10:20 |
| Assurbanipal | :S | 10:20 |
| Viking667 | aftertaf: gah. Figures. | 10:20 |
| aftertaf | in the Top command there is a job using python... | 10:20 |
| aftertaf | is this voluntary? | 10:20 |
| Mamarok | aftertaf: already asked that :) | 10:21 |
| aftertaf | yeah ;) . . . but trying to help the understandage | 10:21 |
| Mamarok | Viking667: you are currently updating? | 10:21 |
| Assurbanipal | i don;t know what is using python, i am running firefox,vlc,quassel now | 10:21 |
| Viking667 | I guess the program thinks it is. | 10:21 |
| Mamarok | Assurbanipal: kill python then | 10:21 |
| Mamarok | Viking667: kill it if not | 10:22 |
| Viking667 | it's uh, finished. | 10:22 |
| Viking667 | now, back to this key problem. | 10:22 |
| Assurbanipal | ok,killed it | 10:22 |
| Viking667 | it only seems to relate to the security-jaunty source. | 10:22 |
| Assurbanipal | now finished copying and system behaves normal.. | 10:23 |
| Mamarok | Assurbanipal: I guess it's the ntfs location that causes it, I can't test, don't have one | 10:24 |
| Assurbanipal | the ntfs disk is connected through usb if that helps | 10:24 |
| Viking667 | oh. Gawd. USB 2.0, I hope? | 10:24 |
| Assurbanipal | as far as i know... yes! | 10:26 |

| drbobb | hey this is crazy. I suddenly realised ALL of my virt. memory was in use (3G of ram + 2G of swap). I checked it out in htop, and firefox was using, like 3.5 G | 10:43 |
| drbobb | all that with 3 open tabs | 10:43 |
| drbobb | that was 5x as much as a virtualbox running xp | 10:45 |
| Viking667 | drbobb: huh? That's so sick. | 10:45 |
| drbobb | I promptly shut down that beast, and saw the process remain active for like 10 more minutes after closing its window | 10:45 |
| Viking667 | 454m 209m 33m S 1.3 18.4 151:12.88 firefox and that's with eight tabs. | 10:45 |
| drbobb | thrashing the disk like crazy, until I lost patience and killed it | 10:46 |
| husayn_ | when ever i type sudo ifconfig eth0:1 10.1.1.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 up it works.. then i restart my PC and then the configuration is gone | 10:46 |
| Mamarok | drbobb: probably flash going wild, a common problem with firefox | 10:46 |
| drbobb | Mamarok: but wouldn't that be reflected in a separate processs? | 10:47 |
| Viking667 | bye all. | 10:47 |
| Mamarok | drbobb: no, as flash runs as a firefox plugin, it's listet under firefox | 10:47 |
| Mamarok | cu Viking667 | 10:47 |
| drbobb | or does 64 bit firefox run flash in-process | 10:47 |
| aftertaf | Firefox does that more and more | 10:48 |
| aftertaf | v3.5 doesnt even close when you close it | 10:48 |
| drbobb | that sucks | 10:49 |
| aftertaf | husayn: have you changed network cards or anything since first install? | 10:49 |
| drbobb | well firefox was always a pain when you have homedirs on nfs | 10:49 |
| Mamarok | aftertaf: works fine so far in KDE 4.3 | 10:49 |
| aftertaf | 3.1 yeah | 10:49 |
| Mamarok | ouch, home dir on nfs?... | 10:50 |
| aftertaf | shiretoko wont close correcty for me | 10:50 |
| flash | flash | 10:50 |
| drbobb | Mamarok: what's so weird about that | 10:50 |
| flash | ciao | 10:50 |
| Mamarok | flash: do you need help? | 10:50 |
| Mamarok | drbobb: about what? | 10:51 |
| aftertaf | nfs home i think | 10:51 |
| drbobb | Mamarok: here we have labs where both / and /home are on nfs, and the boxes boot on pxe | 10:51 |
| drbobb | used to be etherboot/netboot but that's kinda obsolete | 10:52 |
| Mamarok | drbobb: just seems strange to me to use a nfs if one can have etx3/4... but I never use Windows, so :) | 10:52 |
| aftertaf | husayn_: have you tried using the network manager widget to set your IP ?or you set 2 IPs? | 10:52 |
| drbobb | Mamarok: well what if you need to provide the user with the same /home no matter which of 50 workstations he happens to be using | 10:53 |
| husayn_ | no i havnt tried network manager | 10:53 |
| aftertaf | sunray and terminal server farms at work | 10:53 |
| husayn_ | can we configure 2 IP in network manager in Kubuntu Hardy Heron | 10:53 |
| husayn_ | i dont think so | 10:53 |
| drbobb | Mamarok: and I fail to see the relation between nfs and windows | 10:53 |
| Mamarok | drbobb: sry, my bad... | 10:54 |
| Mamarok | read ntfs.... | 10:54 |
| aftertaf | google for alias ubuntu network ip, maybe? dont know... | 10:54 |

| aftertaf | lol | 10:54 |
| aftertaf | force of bad habit ;) | 10:54 |
| drbobb | aftertaf: yeah great idea, but sun gear is $$$$$$$ | 10:55 |
| aftertaf | husayn_: and you type it in shell each time to set it, right, why dont you put it in your /etc/network/interfaces ? | 10:55 |
| aftertaf | drbobb: $$$$ :) and TS is crap. Keeps randomly crashing and doesnt swap users etc etc etc :) | 10:56 |
| husayn_ | humm i will try for that | 10:56 |
| husayn_ | one more thing.. how to check if my graphics card is installed | 10:56 |
| aftertaf | do you see whatwe type ? | 10:56 |
| aftertaf | :) joke | 10:56 |
| aftertaf | what type is it? | 10:56 |
| jjjjjjjjjjjjjj | howdy | 10:57 |
| aftertaf | it will be installed, you want to know if using correct (or proprietary) drivers ? | 10:57 |
| aftertaf | hello TenJ | 10:57 |
| drbobb | we're getting some beefed up NAS boxes to handle nfs now, used to be a low-end sun enterprise or something | 10:57 |
| aftertaf | nice | 10:57 |
| drbobb | one the size of a small fridge | 10:57 |
| jjjjjjjjjjjjjj | ahem | 10:57 |

| drbobb | worked ok for up to 50 clients or so | 10:58 |
| drbobb | nope it's just scuzzy all over the place | 10:58 |
| drbobb | i mean scsi | 10:58 |

| drbobb | hey when I was using my 9.04 laptop this morning I had dolphin create a file with several '/' characters in its name. I thought that was not allowed? | 11:09 |
| drbobb | the funny part being that it was able to create and access this file, but copying it to another device failed. I'd say there's a bug here somewhere | 11:11 |
| muttman | I have installed kde-desktop but I do not see any panel. is there any extra settings required to see panel? | 11:15 |
| drbobb | muttman: did you logout and log back in? | 11:16 |
| muttman | yes I did. Even I tried reboot | 11:16 |
| drbobb | or did you install it in text-mode environment, in gnome, whatever | 11:17 |
| drbobb | maybe you need to choose kde session at the login screen, cause your current default is probably different | 11:17 |
| muttman | from 8.10 I updated to 9.04. I was using gnome. Then I did apt-get install kde-desptop | 11:17 |
| muttman | drbobb: I am using kdm and I can see kgreeter | 11:18 |
| drbobb | well check out what session is set for you at the kdm screen, after typing your login but before logging in | 11:19 |
| drbobb | otherwise you might need to delete or rename your ~/.kde/ | 11:20 |
| Mamarok | move it to .kde_old/ is sometimes the best choice if you are not running out of diskspace | 11:21 |
| drbobb | yeah right | 11:21 |
| Mamarok | so you can find your Mails and other stuff again | 11:21 |
| muttman | drbobb: I did moved ~/.kde DO I need to logout? | 11:21 |
| drbobb | well I wouldn't be surprised if that was needed | 11:22 |
| * drbobb often forgets that some folks still use pop3 for mail rather than imap or gmail | 11:23 | |
| drbobb | which there is no excuse for these days, really | 11:23 |

| drbobb | can anyone comment on dolphin vs. slashes in filenames? | 11:36 |
| Mamarok | drbobb: explain, I fear I don't get the question | 11:40 |
| drbobb | when I was using my 9.04 laptop this morning I had dolphin create a file with several '/' characters in its name. I thought that was not allowed? | 11:40 |
| drbobb | btw I was able to do that by drag'n'dropping a url from firefox | 11:41 |
| Mamarok | drbobb: I don't thin so, what happened is that you insterted spaces in a filename, and on the command line these can not be shown otherwise than with \ // | 11:41 |
| drbobb | the result was a .desktop file named http://blah.blah.etc/and/so/on.desktop | 11:41 |
| Mamarok | named http:// ? | 11:42 |
| Mamarok | that is a URL, not a filename | 11:43 |
| Mamarok | drbobb: why would you drag and drop an URL to dolphin? | 11:43 |
| Mamarok | it's not a browser | 11:43 |
| drbobb | Mamarok: instead of bookmarking the url | 11:44 |
| drbobb | and why not since it works | 11:44 |
| drbobb | ok just tried that in hardy, the name of the .desktop file is urlencoded | 11:45 |
| Mamarok | drbobb: strange idea... you actually dragged it to the desktop, nbot to dolphin, hnce the .desktop extension | 11:45 |
| drbobb | that is, slashes are replaced by %2f | 11:45 |
| drbobb | Mamarok: no, I dragged it to a folder open in dolphin | 11:46 |
| Mamarok | drbobb: because of your locale settings | 11:46 |
| drbobb | and this did exactly what I expected, created a launcher that takes me to that url if I click on it | 11:46 |
| Mamarok | drbobb: that's not how one stores URL addresses anyway, bookmakrs are there for exactly that task, and you can export bookmarks to a html or xl file | 11:47 |
| drbobb | Mamarok: I fail to see what locale has to do with this | 11:47 |
| drbobb | '/' is disallowed in filenames no matter what the locale | 11:47 |
| Mamarok | the slashes are replaced by %2f because of that | 11:47 |
| Mamarok | so would spaces be too | 11:48 |
| Mamarok | URL rules | 11:48 |
| drbobb | well the point is that they weren't | 11:48 |
| * Mamarok sighs | 11:48 | |
| drbobb | uh spaces are totally okay in filenames, though not in urls | 11:48 |
| Mamarok | not in Dolphin, no, as it's not a broswer... | 11:48 |
| Mamarok | so it will not replace spaces, but a broswer does | 11:49 |
| drbobb | Mamarok: plain old ls(1) showed me slashes in the name of the .desktop file | 11:49 |
| Mamarok | drbobb: that's what I try to tell you... | 11:49 |
| drbobb | and the functionality that you can drag a url to a folder, desktop or any other, has been present in kde for as long as I can remember | 11:50 |
| drbobb | even the ancient kfm supported that | 11:51 |
| drbobb | and it's not so pointless: say you picked up some image files or whatever else form a website, d/l'ed them to a folder, and want to keep a reference to where you got them from together with that data | 11:53 |
| drbobb | s/form/from/ | 11:53 |
| drbobb | a .desktop file pointing to the site's url serves that purpose perfectly | 11:53 |
| drbobb | anyway, what I see in hardy is what I'd expect: in dolphin's view of the folder, the urlencoding is decoded to show the user a "friendly" filename | 11:57 |
| drbobb | and attempting to rename or manually create a file with literal slashes in the filename fails | 11:58 |
| drbobb | well that's not what I saw on my jaunty machine | 11:58 |

| jonathan__ | I've a very big problem | 12:37 |
| Peace- | .. | 12:37 |
| jonathan__ | my mouse isn't doing what i want | 12:37 |
| Peace- | well | 12:37 |
| jonathan__ | it just happend during the last kde session... | 12:37 |
| jonathan__ | first it worked allright, and then, it started dragging things without holding the left mouse buttons... i can control windows the one time, the other time i just can't do anything | 12:38 |
| jonathan__ | window controls (close minimize, etc) are sometimes working, the other time not... | 12:38 |
| jonathan__ | I'm lucky that i know that much keyboard shortcuts to open konversation and the kubuntu channels... | 12:39 |
| jonathan__ | any idea what is messing my mouse up? | 12:39 |
| jonathan__ | no my mouse curser changed to the text marker curse for any reason :D | 12:39 |
| jonathan__ | i already restarted my pc twice | 12:39 |
| jonathan__ | And my pc info: Kubuntu 9.04, latest stable KDE Version (4.2.3?), Intel Pentium 4 and compositing enabled | 12:41 |
| Peace- | tried to reconfigure xorg? | 12:41 |
| jonathan__ | don't know what should happen, i didn't configured it before the error happend... | 12:42 |
| Peace- | jonathan__: nothing | 12:42 |
| jonathan__ | ok wait | 12:43 |
| Peace- | jonathan__: sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg | 12:43 |
| Peace- | that is the command | 12:43 |
| jonathan__ | i know but thanks ;) | 12:43 |
| jonathan__ | the mouse isn't even mentioned within my xorg.conf... | 12:43 |

| lovre | hi all | 12:44 |
| Peace- | hi | 12:44 |
| lovre | what is the keyboard shortcut for disabling/enabling desktop effects? | 12:44 |
| jonathan__ | no | 12:44 |
| Peace- | systemsettins----->desktop -------->enable desktop effects | 12:44 |
| jonathan__ | the file didn't change | 12:44 |
| Peace- | jonathan__: the file no...but... | 12:45 |
| lovre | Peace-: yes, i know that, but i knew a keyboard shortcut for this, its faster. Something like CTRL+F?? | 12:45 |
| jonathan__ | lovre: Alt, Schift and F12 | 12:45 |
| lovre | jonathan__: yes, thats it. thank you! | 12:45 |
| Peace- | lovre: create your own shortcuts | 12:45 |
| jonathan__ | no problem ;) | 12:45 |
| robin0800_ | Jonathan the only way to populate the xorg conf is to run Xorg -configure from a recovery console | 12:45 |
| Peace- | lovre: systemsettins---->input action or somethingk like that | 12:45 |
| jonathan__ | ok i will give it a try | 12:46 |

| BluesKaj | !grub | SOBEAR | 14:28 |
| ubottu | SOBEAR: GRUB is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto | 14:28 |
| SOBEAR | I tried it | 14:29 |
| BluesKaj | oh SOBEAR , allocation table means you need to flag your kubuntu partition as 'boot' | 14:32 |
| SOBEAR | tried it too, I have a bad feeling my hdd just died | 14:32 |
| BluesKaj | tyhen you might need to edit grub if windows won't boot up either | 14:33 |

| SOBEAR | yeah I know, especially with ext4 and newer verions of ntfs | 14:40 |

| jdu | so, how do I set it up so that I can easily move windows from one desktop to another? I would like to just be able to grab the title bar. Also, is there a keyboard shortcut? | 19:17 |
| ActionParsnip | jdu: kde will do that, or you can right click the decorator -> move to desktop x | 19:21 |
| mouka | anybody can help with ogre 3d? | 19:22 |
| jdu | ok, I just didn't see a way to enable it in the preferences (or with a quick google). Multiple clicks don't please me either. | 19:23 |
| jdu | generally I am rather keyboard oriented. | 19:24 |
| tsimpson | jdu: System Settings -> Keyboard & Mouse > Global Keyboard Shortcuts > KWin, look for the "Window to Desktop #" actions | 19:27 |

| Shadoze | Hey all | 19:35 |
| ralph | how do i create links between different folders like i could in gnome? i want it to go to another partition whenever it says ~/.wine | 19:40 |
| jdu | you want .wine to be on a different partition? | 19:41 |
| ralph | jdu: no, i just want it how it used to be set up wqhere the .wine directory linked to another partition that had more free space than my /home at the time | 19:43 |
| jdu | ralph: It was probably done by adding a line to /etc/fstab where ~/.wine would be a mount point for the other filesystem. | 19:44 |
| === wojtek is now known as SeungFu | ||
| ralph | jdu: i did it via right-click menu in gnome, but the closest proxy in KDE i can't make heads or tails of | 19:45 |
| ralph | ok THAT time it worked it seems | 19:47 |
| jdu | ralph: I use gnome a lot, and i've never seen the option. Interesting. Well, If you have another partition to use, you can probably do it by copying .wine to the partition, adding it to /etc/fstab, and running: sudo mount -a | 19:47 |
| jdu | ralph: ok, good | 19:48 |
| jdu | do you remember where the option was in gnome? | 19:48 |
| ralph | jdu in a right-click menu | 19:48 |
| jdu | on the folder? | 19:49 |

| phh | pulaski: what about it ? | 21:00 |
| phh | (else than it does nearly nothing) | 21:00 |
| phh | pulaski: if you want to do anything with bluetooth, your only hope is blueman | 21:01 |
| phh | (or looking at bluetooth stack's source code.) | 21:01 |
| pulaski | I just installed ubuntu 9.04 and I have a bluetooth enabled T-Mobile G1 cellphone that I am trying to connect to my computer | 21:02 |
| phh | what do you mean with "to connect to"? | 21:02 |
| phh | file exchange ? | 21:02 |
| phh | internet connection ? | 21:02 |
| pulaski | yes | 21:02 |
| pulaski | some kind of interface | 21:02 |
| phh | yes for which one ? /o\ | 21:02 |

| pulaski | phh: thanks for responding. I'm searching ubuntu forums and the web generally looking for anything to try to get my computer to recognize this phone device. I have enabled bluetooth on my box using sudo /etc/init.d/bluetooth start but where do I go from there? | 21:06 |
| phh | pulaski: you do have the bluetooth icon in systray ? | 21:07 |
| === javier is now known as jjmd | ||
| pulaski | no, my device icon only displays my thumbdrive as connected | 21:08 |
| phh | not in device icon ... | 21:08 |
| phh | systray | 21:08 |
| phh | where you have the sound mixer | 21:08 |
| pulaski | phh: no there is no icon in my systray | 21:09 |
| phh | alt-f2, type kbluetooth4 and enter | 21:10 |
| phh | it should appear | 21:10 |
| pulaski | phh: thanks, that command tells me kbluetooth4 is already running | 21:14 |
| phh | damn, second case | 21:15 |
| phh | and i still have no idea what cause that | 21:15 |
| phh | pulaski: you show all systray icons ? (some may be hidden) | 21:15 |
| mintux | hi I can't make a video dvd with k3b (from mpg file ) I got http://codepad.org/5lh1kSsn and its http://i44.tinypic.com/29wtvp.png | 21:15 |
| pulaski | an the icon did briefly app appear in the as soon as I began to type bluethooh in the run command window but not in the systray. | 21:17 |
| phh | mintux: i think you have to prepare the tree with dvdauthor | 21:17 |
| phh | (or qdvdauthor for a gui) | 21:17 |
| phh | pulaski: try installing blueman anyway | 21:17 |
| pulaski | phh: Thanks I try that | 21:18 |
| mintux | phh I worked on mpg with dvdauthor ? | 21:20 |
| phh | mintux: that's a statement or a question ? | 21:20 |
| mintux | phh sorry it's question | 21:20 |
| mintux | should I work ... ? | 21:21 |
| phh | oh | 21:21 |
| phh | qdvdauthor is more like just a script taking mpg as open and dvd structure as output | 21:21 |
| mintux | phh I installed dvdauthor | 21:22 |
| mintux | it's hard to wirk with it? | 21:22 |
| mintux | **work | 21:22 |
| phh | no idea | 21:22 |
| phh | but it's a cli | 21:22 |
| phh | you'd better use qdvdauthor | 21:23 |
| kaddi | hi, somebody suggested smplayer to me and I would like to try it. Just started it for the first time, it told me my mplayer was too old to work properly. I just checked apt-cache policy says mplayer is up to date:2:1.0~rc2-0ubuntu19. smplayer is 0.6.6-0ubuntu1. Do I need some special experimental release to use smplayer? What could be the problem? | 21:23 |
| phh | kaddi: well, even if it's the last release, it's several months (meaning 2 years.) old | 21:24 |
| phh | so yes it's kind of outdated | 21:25 |
| kaddi | phh: ok, so how do I get the shiny new one? :D | 21:25 |
| phh | you have to find mplayer build snapshots | 21:25 |
| shinygerbil | :O | 21:25 |
| phh | not sure how you're supposed to do | 21:25 |
| phh | (i prefer rebuilding it by myself :D) | 21:25 |
| * shinygerbil sets reminder to stop being highlighted on the word "shiny" | 21:25 | |
| * kaddi has never done that | 21:25 | |
| phh | kaddi: i think of two options: use debian multimedia (hoping it works for ubuntu), or searching for a ppa | 21:26 |
| kaddi | is it easy? would it be a good program for a first try? is there a tutorial for that somewhere? | 21:26 |
| phh | kaddi: ergh.. no. | 21:26 |
| phh | you should really not begin with that one :p | 21:26 |
| kaddi | ok :p | 21:26 |
| ActionParsnip | phh: or compile | 21:27 |
| phh | ActionParsnip: building mplayer is far from being an easy task to do it correctly ... | 21:27 |
| ActionParsnip | phh: true but possible | 21:27 |
| bwv544 | someone that use midi keyboard ? | 21:29 |
| kaddi | does this look like the ppa I would want for a newer version of mplayer: https://launchpad.net/~rvm/+archive/ppa ? (I'd say yes, but I'd like somebody to adhere, so I can blame him if things go wrong ;) ) | 21:29 |
| phh | kaddi: maybe take a look at medibuntu | 21:29 |
| justin_ | y is kubuntu so slow? | 21:30 |
| phh | kaddi: it seems good to me | 21:31 |
| ActionParsnip | justin_: kde uses more reources than other DEs | 21:31 |
| phh | but hum | 21:31 |
| phh | no jaunty release | 21:31 |
| justin_ | so it needs more then windows vista? | 21:31 |
| ActionParsnip | justin_: no way, way less | 21:31 |
| justin_ | thats odd cause I got rid of vista for kubuntu and vista ran smooth but kubuntu is really choppy | 21:32 |
| phh | kaddi: well, medibuntu is outdated, rvm's ppa isn't for jaunty | 21:32 |
| phh | i guess you're gonna build it yourself | 21:32 |
| phh | (if you really need it) | 21:32 |
| ActionParsnip | justin_: windows has greater driver support | 21:32 |
| kaddi | phh: yes noticed that too.. but they do offer jaunty jackalope in the select menu for the display of the sources.list | 21:33 |
| Tm_T | ActionParsnip: ...in some cases | 21:33 |
| ActionParsnip | justin_: you will need to install and configure video drivers for your display | 21:33 |
| phh | kaddi: i guess there is just no package in jaunty repo then | 21:33 |
| ActionParsnip | Tm_T: i'd say in most | 21:33 |
| justin_ | where do I find those? | 21:33 |
| ActionParsnip | justin_: lspci | grep -i vga will tell you what you have, you can websearch from there | 21:34 |

| ghouly | hi, a program (ktorrent) crashes on me (sigsegv 11), in the "KDE Crash Handler" dialog when i click details, it says "unable to create a valid backtrace", "This is probably because your packages are built in a way which prevents creation of proper backtraces" , is there anything i can do about that or is it a general problem ? | 21:56 |
| === Guest1862 is now known as diego__ | ||
| kbntuchris | ghouly: Does it only crash when you type in a url, or is it any command? | 21:58 |
| === luis_ is now known as LuisJa | ||
| tsimpson | ghouly: you don't have the debugging packages installed | 21:58 |
| ghouly | it crashes everytime when change max download speed via tray icon, there isn't a bugreport for that yet so i wanted to try an make one | 21:58 |
| ghouly | what debug packages do i need ? ktorrent ones or generic ? | 21:59 |
| tsimpson | you'll want ktorrent-dbg and probably kdebase-runtime-dbg | 21:59 |
| LuisJa | i got a huge problem: i have a ps3, i like to play music with it, all my other music than i downloaded its from vista and works well, but 3 than i downloaded wtih linux, the ps3 says: not compatible, and its mp3, WTH???? i need help | 21:59 |
| tsimpson | (rather a large download in total) | 21:59 |
| ghouly | ok, thanks, i'll try that =) | 21:59 |
| ghouly | yeah, but i guess this wasn't the last crash i've seen in kde4, and since they made such a nice crash-handler dialog it might be worth it | 22:00 |

| LuisJa | i need help pls | 22:00 |
| Phibes | wine wants to open it, and thats wrong | 22:00 |
| tsimpson | ghouly: the crash handler was in KDE3 as well | 22:00 |
| ghouly | they should add some info there about downloading the debug packages for the program though *g* | 22:00 |
| ghouly | hmm, it was kinda different i think, just a bomb dialog or something, i don't remember exactly | 22:01 |
| ghouly | this stacktrace thing seems to be a really good addition if it works | 22:01 |
| kbntuchris | Anyone got experience with compcache .53 | 22:01 |
| tsimpson | KDE cant know if it's a distro package or compiled yourself, it can no know how to install packages or if your distro provides packages | 22:01 |
| ghouly | a simple "try installing debug packages for the program" might help %) | 22:02 |

| iivv_ | tsimpson: when i use the mount command to mount an iso to cdrom0, i get a 'specify filesystem type' error | 22:03 |
| iivv_ | i guess i should put in iso9660, but where | 22:04 |
| tsimpson | iivv_: try with "-t iso9660" | 22:04 |
| kbntuchris | iivv_: Don't forget -o loop | 22:04 |
| iivv_ | i still get an error, although it looks like it gave it a try: wrong fs type, bad superblock... etc | 22:05 |
| kbntuchris | iivv_: Have you verified the ISO isn't corrupt? | 22:06 |
| tsimpson | iivv_: what is the output of "file <filename>" ? (replacing <filename> with the file you want to mount) | 22:06 |
| iivv_ | i've used it on windows before | 22:06 |
| iivv_ | tsimpson: Deus Ex - GOTY Edition.iso: data | 22:07 |
| tsimpson | then it's not an ISO | 22:07 |
| tsimpson | it's either corrupt or some proprietary format | 22:07 |
| iivv_ | tsimpson: really??? ... how am i going to install deus ex... | 22:10 |
| iivv_ | kbntuchris: how would i go about verifying the iso | 22:10 |
| kbntuchris | iivv_: Do you still have access to a windows box? | 22:10 |
| iivv_ | i dual boot | 22:10 |
| kbntuchris | iivv_: You might try mounting it in windows, and ripping it to an iso... | 22:11 |
| iivv_ | ok | 22:11 |
| kbntuchris | iivv_: I've run into .iso files that were actually .nrg for example, and somewhere along the line got renamed. Nero will notice it's not what it says and open it w/o issue..I wouldn't be suprised if Daemon Tools operates the same way... | 22:12 |
| Phibes | how to check if your iso is or is not iso9660 | 22:18 |
| tsimpson | Phibes: use the "file" command, that'll print what type of data the file contains | 22:19 |
| Phibes | k, thx | 22:19 |
| Phibes | rld-sim3.iso: data | 22:19 |
| Phibes | lol | 22:19 |
| ralph | anybody know of a way to know which directories from /home are unused by any programs? i used to run KDE over normal ubuntu (gnome) so i don't know how many files are left over for no reason | 22:20 |
| tsimpson | that's an unknown type, "data" | 22:20 |
| Phibes | so it isnt 9660... damn | 22:20 |
| ralph | now i run pure KDE but my /home was in a seperate directory | 22:20 |
| Phibes | so, am i correct in thinking terminal cant mount it? | 22:21 |
| ralph | seperate partition* | 22:21 |
| kbntuchris | ralph: You could probably do something with last accessed time to determine what hasn't been touched since you switched to kde | 22:22 |
| kbntuchris | ralph: I couldn't tell you an efficient way of doing it though : / | 22:23 |
| kbntuchris | ralph: Maybe someone could help you running an ls through grep and grab dates before a certain date. If you mount your file system with noatime tho, then you'll need another route. | 22:26 |
| ralph | dolphin only has the ambiguous option to sort by date | 22:26 |
| ralph | who knows if that is date created or date accessed | 22:26 |
| eypherath | Hi...Does someone have a clue, why my sound doesn't work, even though system-noises are played perfectly, but anything else is just noisily silent? | 22:26 |
| kbntuchris | ralph: Yeh, you need to use ls -u in a konsole, or stat -c %x (filename) would do it per file... | 22:28 |
| Phibes | eypherath, are the system noises coming from your boxes or your motherboard? | 22:30 |
| kbntuchris | ralph: you might need ls -ul to get dates up | 22:30 |
| eypherath | @Phibes: With noises I mean this ear piercing music playing at startup and shutdown... | 22:31 |
| kbntuchris | ralph: you might need ls -Rul to get dates up will do it recursive, but I expect the output's gonna be a bit much to go through manually... | 22:31 |
| eypherath | And it's coming from my boxes... | 22:31 |
| Phibes | oh, dont have a clue then :P | 22:31 |
| Phibes | good luck, im off | 22:31 |
| eypherath | Thanks... | 22:31 |
| ilor | eypherath: had a similar issue, amarok and system sounds worked, movie players had no sound | 22:31 |
| ilor | eypherath: twiddling with preferences-sound somehow fixed the issue | 22:33 |
| kbntuchris | Does anyone know if it matters where under my /lib/modules/my+kernel+ver+/ I dump modules, and if there's anything besides depmod -A I need to do after I drop it in? | 22:33 |
| ralph | kbntuchris: is this output sorted in anyway? | 22:34 |
| kbntuchris | ralph: With just the options I gave you, no.. | 22:34 |
| kbntuchris | ralph I know grep can sort/manipulate ls output and could be used to dump only the files not accessed since a certain date, but grep is something that I always need help to use myself : P Me and grep get into fights. | 22:35 |
| kbntuchris | which is sad. it's amazingly useful. | 22:35 |
| ralph | anybody know how to use grep to submit a list of every director/file not used since a certain date? | 22:36 |
| eypherath | @ilor I am trying to run amarok right now...Somehow doesn't want to play any files at all... | 22:36 |
| eypherath | @ilor What exactly did you do to fix it? I am quite new to Kubuntu and KDE4... | 22:38 |
| kbntuchris | ralph: Actually...Find is probably better. I just remembered it... | 22:38 |
| kbntuchris | ralph: 'man find' should shed some light. | 22:38 |
| ilor | eypherath: I *think* I set it all to use pulseaudio and only then the test sound worked | 22:42 |
| ralph | kbntuchris: i used find -atime +10 > tendayoldfiles.txt | 22:43 |
| kbntuchris | ralph: That should work =D | 22:44 |
| kbntuchris | but keep in mind, a program might not touch EVERY file, but many usually have their own directory so if something in a dir tree was touched recently, the whole dir might belong to a program you still use. | 22:45 |
| eypherath | @ ilor : I got it all set to use my soundcard and the test sound works...But the sound in video and flash still doesn't work...If amarok works, I do not know yet...Still trying to fix it.. | 22:45 |
| kbntuchris | ralph: basically, back up your $home and hang on to it for a few days | 22:45 |
| iwo | hey, is the windows key still not usable as both a modifer _and_ regular key in kde4? | 22:45 |
| iwo | modifier | 22:45 |
| iwo | Just read this from the kde3 docs: | 22:47 |
| iwo | "This feature was removed for reasons of usability and accessibility, as well as keeping the code clean..." | 22:47 |
| iwo | wtf?! | 22:47 |
| ign0ramus | iwo, by default, Win+(n) is used by Amarok | 22:47 |
| ign0ramus | iwo, in KDE4 | 22:47 |
| eypherath | @ ilor : Well...sound does not play, when I run the files with vlc... | 22:47 |
| iwo | ign0ramus: not sure I understand what you mean. by default the win key is a modifier key (Meta)... | 22:47 |
| ign0ramus | iwo, oh, i thought you were asking if it could used as a modifier OR regular key | 22:48 |
| iwo | to get the win key to open the kde menu, i'd have remap to e.g. F13 (and the Win key will no longer be a modifier key) | 22:48 |
| ign0ramus | mutually exclusive | 22:48 |
| ign0ramus | iwo, it works as "meta+" , but now as a regular key, at least in my experience | 22:49 |
| ign0ramus | *but not | 22:49 |
| kbntuchris | iwo: One or the other, but not both at the same time... | 22:49 |
| iwo | from the docs: | 22:49 |
| iwo | "Previous versions of KDE provided a trick to allow you to use the Windows® key both as a modifier (so you could have shortcuts like Win+R), and as a regular key (so that pressing Win on its own could open the K menu)." | 22:49 |
| kbntuchris | iwo: I feel your pain | 22:49 |
| iwo | why on earth was this feature removed, when practically every consumer keyboard on the planet now has this key?! | 22:50 |
| kbntuchris | iwo: I imagine it could be patched back in..Maybe someone's got a patch out.. | 22:50 |
| iwo | 'to keep the code clean' is not a valid reason | 22:50 |
| iwo | good point kbntuchris, will keep searching | 22:51 |
| ralph | i dunno it makes sense to keep the windows key as a modifier-only key, unusual functionality can cause probelms i guess | 22:51 |
| kbntuchris | iwo: Seems like something someone would miss enough to revert it. | 22:52 |
| kbntuchris | As far as reasons to take it out, I would expect a better explanation than clean code as well. I never had buggy kde problems with it as both. Maybe it has something to do with VM compatibility? That's something I would expect to be distro specific though. Who knows what ye gods are thinking... | 22:53 |
| ign0ramus | iwo, from an older post "you can change the signal sent by the window key from "mod4" to super_L and super_R (left and right windows keys)." | 22:53 |
| ign0ramus | iwo, not sure if that still applies | 22:53 |
| iwo | ign0ramus: yeah, i don't quite understand that either (and other blogs that say similar things) - who has two windows keys?! | 22:55 |
| iwo | (or maybe only UK keyboards have 1?) | 22:55 |
| kbntuchris | iwo: I've got 2 | 22:55 |
| ign0ramus | iwo, my American laptops only have 1 | 22:55 |
| kbntuchris | iwo: I've also got some key with a menu on it. | 22:56 |
| ign0ramus | kbntuchris, that key is actually functional, though | 22:56 |
| ralph | am i missing something? or does Kubuntu not have a default app for opening .deb? | 22:56 |
| kbntuchris | seems to be a right click | 22:56 |
| ign0ramus | yup, exactly | 22:56 |
| kbntuchris | ralph: It should use kpackagekit. | 22:56 |
| ign0ramus | ralph, right click and open with kpackagkit. have the system remember the setting | 22:57 |
| iwo | ah i see, so super_L is the windows key, super_R is the 'context' key (right-click | 22:57 |
| iwo | ) | 22:57 |
| ign0ramus | right | 22:57 |
| ign0ramus | ...or left, i suppose ;) | 22:57 |
| iwo | :D | 22:58 |
| ign0ramus | iwo, no, wait.. actually i think super_R is Right Windows Key and super_L is Left Windows Key | 22:58 |
| ign0ramus | iwo, at least, that | 22:58 |
| ign0ramus | 's what i took from it | 22:58 |
| iwo | does anyone really have a right windows key? | 22:58 |
| ign0ramus | iwo, i sounded like kbntuchris does | 22:59 |
| tsimpson | iwo: see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kdebase-workspace/+bug/219412 | 22:59 |
| iwo | funny thing is, alt-f1 doesn't work for me for some reason, on a fresh kubuntu 9.04 | 22:59 |
| ign0ramus | iwo, afaik, it does not work after Intrepid | 23:02 |
| eypherath | @ ilor: Well...Amarok works...At least playing online streams...^^ But playing sound files with vlc, playing video files and opening flash files results in deep, deep silence... | 23:02 |
| ign0ramus | iwo, apparently, having a key that works as a meta key *and* a trigger for a particular action causes problems... http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=154564#c7 | 23:03 |
| iwo | so how the **** do you get the menu to appear now >:@ | 23:03 |
| iwo | ?! | 23:03 |
| ilor | eypherath: can't really help you more since I don't understand the underlying issue, and git it fixed for me pretty much by chance | 23:03 |
| iwo | if i do switch the key to be a regular key (F13), i'm not sure how to actually map that to show the kde menu... | 23:04 |
| iwo | when i enter the keyboard shortcuts screen, there's no kde menu or kicker option, or anything else that will open the menu | 23:04 |
| iwo | does anyone know what it's called? | 23:05 |
| phh | iwo: right click on the icon of the menu, settings, and there shortcut | 23:05 |
| ign0ramus | iwo, see here: http://kubuntuforums.net/forums/index.php?topic=3095141.msg134453#msg134453 | 23:05 |
| iwo | yeah, been reading that post - i'm not sure the same applies to kde4 tho... | 23:06 |
| iwo | i don't have a Regional & Accessibility menu option | 23:07 |
| ign0ramus | iwo, you should in System Settings > Advanced | 23:07 |
| ign0ramus | iwo, no wait, it's in General. sorry | 23:07 |
| ign0ramus | iwo, if you type in "keyboard", it should be one of the options | 23:08 |
| tsimpson | it's under Keyboard & Mouse now | 23:08 |
| iwo | yeah, i have no Popup Launch Menu in that list though :-\ | 23:09 |
| tsimpson | under "Global Keyboard Shortcuts" and the "Plasma Workspace" component | 23:09 |
| ign0ramus | tsimpson, it may be because i'm running kde 4.2.3, but there is a separate entry in System Settings for Regional & Accessibility | 23:09 |
| phh | iwo: the way i told you works easier ... | 23:09 |
| iwo | ah, thanks tsimpson | 23:09 |
| tsimpson | ign0ramus: shouldn't that be "Regional & Language" ? | 23:10 |
| phh | (it's easier and logicer btw) | 23:10 |
| iwo | ah yes, cheers phh, sorry, missed that one in the chat window :) | 23:10 |
| ign0ramus | tsimpson, yes, that's what i meant, I just c/p'd the comment above ;) | 23:10 |
| tsimpson | ign0ramus: keyboard shortcuts aren't under that any more, it's in "Keyboard & Mouse" (where you'd expect it) | 23:11 |
| phh | tsimpson: well, for the menu, you'll expect it in the menu settings... and it is there. | 23:12 |
| iwo | okay... and for some reason it doesn't work :'( | 23:12 |
| ign0ramus | tsimpson, oh, i know... but iwo was saying he couldn't find the Regional & Language menu... | 23:12 |
| phh | iwo: oh | 23:12 |
| iwo | opened the dialog, set the shortcut key by pressing windows key (F13 pops up in the box), press ok... | 23:13 |
| iwo | and nothing happens when i press the key :'( | 23:13 |
| ign0ramus | iwo, you still have to remap the input of the Windows key | 23:13 |
| iwo | needs a restart of plasma maybe? | 23:13 |
| phh | iwo: werid, for me it works | 23:13 |
| phh | (well i use kde 4.3, but iirc it was the same for 4.2) | 23:14 |
| iwo | ign0ramus: yeah, I remapped to F13 using xmodmap | 23:14 |
| iwo | now when i press the key, 'F13' appears in the shortcut dialog (so it must be mapped right) | 23:14 |
| ign0ramus | iwo, and still nothing? | 23:14 |
| phh | iwo: mmm maybe not | 23:15 |
| phh | it can still be a modifier | 23:15 |
| phh | (i looked at the xmodmap man and it seems weird) | 23:15 |
| iwo | ...just trying some other keys to see if any key combo works | 23:16 |
| iwo | yeah, other key combos work, but not F13 | 23:19 |
| phh | iwo: can you paste xmodmap results? | 23:20 |
| iwo | pasted here: http://pastebin.com/d3c12426b | 23:23 |
| iwo | i used xev to get the keycode | 23:23 |
| phh | iwo: no, i mean the answer of the xmodmap command | 23:24 |
| iwo | it's silent, when I run with -verbose, i get the output at that url | 23:25 |
| phh | ?!? | 23:25 |
| phh | you should get something like: | 23:25 |
| phh | shift Shift_L (0x32), Shift_R (0x3e) | 23:25 |
| phh | lock Caps_Lock (0x42) | 23:25 |
| phh | control Control_L (0x25), Control_R (0x69) | 23:25 |
| iwo | sorry, i thought you meant the output that i get when mapping the key :D | 23:25 |
| iwo | http://pastebin.com/d56284125 | 23:26 |
| phh | iwo: and xmodmap -pk |grep 133 | 23:27 |
| iwo | 133 0xffca (F13) | 23:28 |
| phh | damned | 23:28 |
| phh | iwo: ok you can try restarting plasma. | 23:29 |
| iwo | :) | 23:29 |
| phh | or you can use alt-f1 shortcut as everyone windows-less does. | 23:30 |
| ign0ramus | phh, alt+f1 never worked for me on Jaunty | 23:30 |
| phh | ign0ramus: you can set the shortcut how you want ... | 23:31 |
| iwo | yeah, i guess so. unfortunately (like most people), i don't have the luxury of using a kde desktop wherever i go (which is why i'd like to be able to map keys to do what the rest of the known world does)... | 23:31 |
| phh | just works fine here if setted | 23:31 |
| ign0ramus | phh, what command do you have it bound to? | 23:31 |
| iwo | but that's a kde problem :) | 23:31 |
| phh | ign0ramus: right click on the menu plasmoid, settings, shortcut | 23:32 |
| ign0ramus | phh, maybe i'm missing something... right-click on the kmenu icon on the panel? | 23:33 |
| phh | yep | 23:33 |
| ign0ramus | phh, "application launcher menu settings"? | 23:33 |
| phh | yes | 23:33 |
| ign0ramus | phh, ahh... i see now | 23:34 |
| phh | :-) | 23:34 |
| ign0ramus | phh, as xmodmap is dependent on X, i'm going to restart X and see if my changes have taken effect | 23:34 |
| draik | ign0ramus: YO | 23:34 |
| ign0ramus | draik, brb dude | 23:34 |
| ign0ramus | draik, sup? | 23:35 |
| ign0ramus | phh, no go... it sets back to "meta+" :( | 23:36 |
| draik | ign0ramus: Nothing much. Trying to write my own shell script but I can't get it to execute anything based on user input. | 23:37 |
| phh | yep, i never succeded using this damn key for anything else than meta | 23:37 |
| ign0ramus | phh, in fact, my keyboard was frozen upon restarting of X... I had to use the alt+f7 trick to get keyboard back | 23:37 |
| ign0ramus | draik, a script to do what? | 23:37 |
| draik | ign0ramus: Many things. It's more of a shortcut to update/upgrade, backups, du, df, etc. | 23:38 |
| ign0ramus | draik, using aliases or full commands? | 23:39 |
| draik | ign0ramus: Full commands. | 23:39 |
| iwo | if anyone wants to help get this fixed, you could vote here: | 23:39 |
| iwo | https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=154564 | 23:39 |
| ign0ramus | draik, ok... i actually stole many of your aliases (sorry), but I found that aliases don't register as the actual commands for many things | 23:39 |
| iwo | just signup (only need an email, no other details), then log in and click vote (and assign 20 votes :)) | 23:40 |
| draik | My aliases are for all to own/share, so don't apologize. | 23:40 |
| ign0ramus | draik, i use 'dg' on a semi-hourly basis ;) | 23:40 |
| ign0ramus | draik, mostly for the xorg-edgers PPA... they update frequently | 23:40 |
| draik | I have changed it to 'up' on this server, netbook and 2 other computers. | 23:40 |
| ign0ramus | draik, for update && upgrade? | 23:41 |
| draik | ign0ramus: Why not create the 'dg' as a cron job? | 23:41 |
| draik | ign0ramus: Yes. for update && upgrade | 23:41 |
| ign0ramus | draik, never even thought of it :D | 23:41 |
| draik | ign0ramus: Good alcohol, huh? | 23:42 |
| ign0ramus | draik, i would assume a terminal would have to be open for the cron job to work, eh? | 23:42 |
| draik | ign0ramus: Nope. | 23:42 |
| ign0ramus | draik, the Glenlivet always treats me well :) | 23:42 |
| === yml_ is now known as yml | ||
| draik | ign0ramus: So yeah. I've been beating myself senseless trying to figure out what I'm doing wrong. | 23:47 |
| ign0ramus | draik, feel like pasting the script? | 23:48 |
| draik | ign0ramus: Sure thing. How again? | 23:50 |
| draik | I'm on the server, not GUI | 23:50 |
| iwo | does anyone know how i can check what kde version i'm using? or does anyone already know what the version currently included in kubuntu 9.04 is? | 23:50 |
| ign0ramus | draik, pastebinit? | 23:51 |
| draik | iwo: KDE4, but you can always check by going to Konqueror > Help > About | 23:51 |
| draik | ign0ramus: Sorry. I meant to ask for the syntax of pastebinit | 23:51 |
| draik | BTW, do you have my | 23:51 |
| ign0ramus | draik, i've never actually used it... :/ | 23:52 |
| draik | BTW, do you have my 'sagi' alias? | 23:52 |
| ign0ramus | draik, that's a new one | 23:52 |
| draik | sagi - Sudo Apt-Get Install | 23:52 |
| draik | Lowercase, of course, but just showing my reasoning | 23:53 |
| ign0ramus | draik, got it, i just aliased it to 'get' | 23:54 |
| ign0ramus | draik, syntax: pastebinit -i /etc/X11/xorg.conf http://rafb.net | 23:54 |
| draik | ign0ramus: I have the link, gimme a sec to go from TTY1 to TTY2 | 23:54 |
| ign0ramus | draik, k | 23:55 |
| draik | http://pastebin.com/f60ab57b0 | 23:55 |
| ign0ramus | draik, can you even get the first echo question to print? | 23:56 |
| draik | All of that works | 23:56 |
| ign0ramus | draik, well then what? | 23:56 |
| draik | I get to the input | 23:57 |
| draik | Then at the prompt, pfft | 23:57 |
| draik | Enter whatever you want and it terminates | 23:57 |
| ign0ramus | hmm.... | 23:57 |
| draik | ign0ramus: Sorry. I just ran it again. This latest revision gives errors | 23:57 |
| draik | All of the echos work, but I get errors about the commands | 23:58 |
| draik | compile and see for yourself | 23:58 |
| ign0ramus | draik, i was going to ask about that... | 23:58 |
| ign0ramus | draik, instead of labeling, if you just give the direct command, does it make a difference? | 23:58 |
| draik | g++ -o file.sh MyScript | 23:58 |
| ign0ramus | draik, for testing purposes, of course | 23:58 |
| draik | ign0ramus: I don't want it to run, I want it to assign it to the letter of my choice and then run when told to do so. | 23:59 |
| ign0ramus | draik, i know, but i'm wondering if you're labeling is causing the fault | 23:59 |
| ign0ramus | *your labeling | 23:59 |
