| LuisJa | in what folder? | 00:07 |
| LuisJa | ??? | 00:08 |
| LuisJa | hello | 00:08 |
| ign0ramus | LuisJa, did you check /var/cache/apt ? | 00:09 |
| LuisJa | i mean, how i can acces there | 00:09 |
| LuisJa | is like if the folder is invisible | 00:09 |
| LuisJa | i dont know where it is | 00:09 |
| ign0ramus | LuisJa, from terminal or gui? | 00:10 |
| LuisJa | dolphin | 00:10 |
| ign0ramus | LuisJa, show hidden files | 00:10 |
| LuisJa | ? | 00:10 |
| ign0ramus | LuisJa, in dolphin press Alt+. | 00:10 |
| ign0ramus | LuisJa, or View > Show Hidden Files | 00:11 |
| ign0ramus | LuisJa, from terminal, you can examine by "cd /var/cache/apt" and then doing "ls -o" | 00:11 |
| LuisJa | lol after puting show hindden files dolphin became full of folders lololol | 00:12 |
| LuisJa | thx dude | 00:12 |
| ign0ramus | LuisJa, you got it? | 00:12 |

| shayaknyc | hi all, i was hoping someone could help me with this...i'm migrating out of windows vista, where you can hold shift and right-click on an executable file or shortcut and then have it run as administrator...is there something similar in kubuntu where you can right-click an executable and have it run as kdesudo/sudo ? | 00:41 |
| shayaknyc | anyone? | 00:43 |
| ign0ramus | shayaknyc, afaik, not from right click menu, but you can always create a kdesudo shortcut or simply launch your app as superuser from terminal or krunner | 00:44 |
| shayaknyc | hmm....yeah, that's what I was hoping was not the answer :( | 00:44 |
| shayaknyc | thanks | 00:44 |
| master | hi | 00:44 |
| ign0ramus | shayaknyc, np. what apps do you need to run as superuser so often? | 00:44 |
| master | Hi all appologies ...i couldnt find myself how are we | 00:45 |

| etfb | The package "pm-utils" just came up in my auto-update. I went and followed links. The Ubuntu version is 0.99, but the oldest one on the pm-utils GIT repository is 1.1.2.4, and that's a year old. The one that Ubuntu is pushing out now must be two years old or more! Why is it only showing up now? | 01:02 |
| ign0ramus | etfb, because some ubuntu packages are outdated... | 01:03 |
| ign0ramus | etfb, see OOo for example | 01:03 |
| === Paraselene__ is now known as Paraselene_ | ||
| etfb | ign0ramus: "Why are some Ubuntu packages outdated?" "Because some Ubuntu packages are outdated." OK, yes, I see you understand the problem... but why does the problem exist? | 01:04 |
| etfb | ign0ramus: And really - two years? That's a bit absurd, even for good old "let's be completely sure before we release" Debian-based distros. | 01:04 |
| ign0ramus | etfb, that's a question for the upstream. sometimes for stability purposes, sometimes, who knows | 01:04 |
| etfb | ign0ramus: Upstream = Debian, you mean? | 01:05 |
| ign0ramus | etfb, why are there tons of unfinished kde4 apps bundled in kubuntu? ask the devs. | 01:05 |
| etfb | ign0ramus: So can I just get the latest package direct from the git repository and install it? Or will there be random incompatibilities? | 01:05 |
| === matthew is now known as Guest80827 | ||
| === Guest80827 is now known as matthew_ | ||
| ign0ramus | etfb, depends on the app and your installed dependcies. that's not a 'yes' or 'no' question. | 01:06 |
| matthew_ | Would anyone mind helping me convert a .batch file? =) | 01:06 |
| matthew_ | converting* | 01:06 |
| etfb | ign0ramus: Thought so. Bloody hell. | 01:06 |
| ign0ramus | etfb, can you get stuff from git and svn? sure. will it compile straight away? you don't know until you try. :) | 01:06 |
| etfb | I suppose it would be worse if I were using 8.04, codenamed Icrosoft Ista... | 01:07 |
| === matthew_ is now known as matthew | ||
| etfb | Sticking with Hardy until I hear some news that's not bad... | 01:07 |
| etfb | matthew: What kind of batch file? MS-DOS? | 01:07 |
| ign0ramus | etfb, it depends on your outlook, i suppose. | 01:07 |
| === matthew is now known as Guest32357 | ||
| etfb | ign0ramus: My outlook is that I use this computer for serious work. So letting a bunch of hacks give me non-functional code and call it an upgrade... that's not on. | 01:08 |
| ign0ramus | etfb, KDE 4 is widely regarded as a "work in progress". If you need to do 'serious work', then something stable and mature is probably the safe bet. | 01:09 |
| etfb | ign0ramus: Yep, that's the reasoning I use. The fact that they released this "work in progress" as their default system _and then made it impossible to replace it with a working windowing system_ is a symptom of a serious malaise in the Ubuntu/Canonical mindset. | 01:10 |
| etfb | That, or they assume all their users keep Windows for real work and just use Linux as a toy. | 01:11 |
| ign0ramus | etfb, and that is why older versions are still supported and updated. | 01:11 |
| etfb | ign0ramus: "The 2009 model Toyota Camry will explode into flames if you drive it faster than 50km/h, but that's OK because we still sell the 2008 model." | 01:12 |
| ign0ramus | etfb, pretty poor analogy, but if you honestly feel that way, buy a Honda | 01:12 |
| etfb | ign0ramus: Sorry you don't like the analogy. Its startling congruence to reality is what appeals to me. Kubuntu 8.10 and 9.04 versions are unacceptably poor quality. I am unmoved by anecdotes suggesating that it's acceptable to people who treat Linux as a toy. | 01:14 |
| ActionParsnip | etfb: the OS comes with zero warranty and zero SLA, so even if its an official release it could be problematic | 01:14 |
| ActionParsnip | etfb: if it breaks, you get both parts | 01:15 |
| etfb | ActionParsnip: Well, as long as you promise never to tell anyone that they can rely on Ubuntu, then that's OK. Otherwise there's a serious disconnect between the cheques your mouth is writing and the ones your arse is willing to cash. | 01:16 |

| etfb | bazhang: If there's a topic MORE on-topic for #kubuntu than the unreliability of KDE4-based releases, I'd like to know what it is. | 01:16 |
| ign0ramus | etfb, is there a particular issue you would like troubleshot, or did you join with soapbox in hand? | 01:16 |
| ActionParsnip | etfb: this fact is all over the OS dude, but as bazhang says, its offtopic here | 01:17 |

| faileas | http://apt.pearsoncomputing.net/cdimages/ | 02:46 |
| ajavid | thanks | 02:47 |
| ajavid | is it stable? | 02:47 |
| ajavid | I need to install kubuntu but I have my 1tb /home as ext4. I'd like to use the LTS ubuntu stable + kde3 + 2.6.28+(for ext4 support) and I have a rt26 wifi | 02:48 |
| ajavid | please advice the best possible solution | 02:48 |
| DasKreecH | ajavid: faileas just gave you where you start from | 02:49 |
| faileas | ajavid: its effectively the current one. i think he also has kde3 repos, in which case, you can start from minimal, and install kde3 seperately if you just want that | 02:50 |
| dennister | ok, i'm back.. .my presentation was printing fine this morning, but then oo crashed and now all it prints is gobbleygook...other apps print fine...can someone please help me sort this out? | 02:51 |
| dennister | and yes, i've tried openoffice.org channel...it's dead\ | 02:51 |
| ajavid | is this supported by kubuntu? | 02:54 |
| ajavid | is the remix supported? | 02:54 |
| faileas | its not official | 02:54 |
| DasKreecH | dennister: Wait it was working? | 02:55 |
| DasKreecH | dennister: did you try moving your ~/.openoffice.org directory to a new name? | 02:55 |
| DasKreecH | ajavid: Not supported by canonical but fairly supported here | 02:55 |
| dennister | DasKreecH: not open office, nope...no I didn't try that...could i simply do that, temporarily move it to trash or something? | 02:56 |
| ep | I just installed qt4 on Jaunty and "qmake -version" from konsole gives Qmake version: 1.07a (Qt 3.3.8b). Opps. It installed but didn't set the path in ~/.bashrc or wherever appropiate. Is this a bug? How do I fix this properly? | 02:56 |
| DasKreecH | dennister: Just rename it | 03:01 |
| DasKreecH | close OO.o rename it then open it back up | 03:01 |
| dennister | DasKreecH: too late, moved it like u suggested, opened oo, tried printing, still gobbleygook | 03:03 |
| DasKreecH | dennister: Umm ok try purge it then | 03:04 |
| ajavid | KDE3.5 can be installed alongside KDE4.x with no problems. KDE3.5 automatically detects and adjusts for KDE4.x programs, so that users can easily run KDE4 applications from within the KDE3.5 environment. | 03:05 |
| ajavid | awesome | 03:05 |
| dennister | DasKreecH: purge whole app? | 03:05 |
| DasKreecH | Yes | 03:05 |
| dennister | okie doke | 03:05 |
| ajavid | I also wonder | 03:05 |
| ajavid | kde3.5 in jaunty is supported in the sense that it willr ecieve udates/fixes/security stuff | 03:06 |
| ajavid | ? | 03:06 |
| ajavid | or is it only supported by community on how to use it? | 03:06 |
| DasKreecH | As much as possible it will get updates fixes etc as they happen | 03:06 |
| ajavid | how to get ext4 fs support in the 8.04 LTS | 03:07 |
| DasKreecH | ajavid: Compile your kernel | 03:07 |
| ajavid | is there no backported ones? | 03:08 |
| DasKreecH | actually now you can probably install the kernel deb | 03:08 |
| DasKreecH | I would guess it's not that hard | 03:08 |
| ajavid | 2.6.28+ has stable supoprt for ext4 | 03:08 |
| ajavid | started with .26 | 03:08 |
| DasKreecH | then again compiling your own kernel isn't hard either | 03:08 |
| ajavid | I'm on debian sid for 8 years | 03:08 |
| ajavid | they stopped producing kde3 | 03:08 |
| ajavid | :/ | 03:08 |
| DasKreecH | ajavid: has to happen at some time | 03:09 |
| ajavid | ahhhhh boy, yes yes it had to hapen sometime | 03:09 |
| ajavid | but why not ;) | 03:09 |
| DasKreecH | Well doesn't have to. I guess anyone can keep coding on KDE3 as long as they want | 03:09 |
| ajavid | progress | 03:09 |
| ajavid | when 9.04 first came out i tried it out and it crashed all the time random apps kde4 was pretty unstable | 03:10 |
| ajavid | thas why i look for 3.5 | 03:10 |
| ajavid | its not any better in debian unstable either | 03:11 |
| faileas | ajavid: why not use 9.04 with kde3? | 03:11 |
| ajavid | and they stopped making packets for kde3 | 03:11 |
| ajavid | faileas, I'm just talking right now disuccing but I am doing this 9.04 remix kde3 | 03:11 |
| ajavid | 56% down | 03:11 |
| faileas | ahh | 03:11 |
| faileas | k | 03:11 |
| DasKreecH | :-) | 03:11 |

| ajavid | how diff is ubuntu from debian? | 03:20 |
| ajavid | how do you derive ubuntu from debian? | 03:20 |
| DasKreecH | ajavid: very different while being very much the same | 03:20 |
| DasKreecH | Think of it as Debian with untested polish | 03:21 |
| ajavid | I see | 03:21 |
| ajavid | no wonder its a crash-o-rama | 03:21 |
| ajavid | thats why I was wondering to use the LTS | 03:22 |
| ajavid | its older so I would assume it has more stablity now due to patching | 03:22 |
| DasKreecH | thats the idea | 03:23 |
| ajavid | and it has kde3 of course, but older kernel no supoprt for ext4 | 03:24 |
| ajavid | DasKreecH, you watch movies? have you seen the star trek movie 2009? | 03:24 |
| DasKreecH | not yet :-( | 03:24 |

| ralmar | Hey guys, quick question. Do i need to install Privoxy on ubuntu 9.04 in order to use TOR with firefox? The tutorial on the official ubuntu website tells you to install it but another tutorial I saw skips that step? Thanks | 03:53 |
| dwidmann | Okay, I've recently upgraded to Kubuntu 9.04 on my laptop, and graphics performance is quite lackluster now. I've got an Intel 965GM (according to /var/log/Xorg.conf), any fix? | 03:53 |
| dennister | DasKreecH: ok, adding oo-kde helped, not crashing immediately open loading presentation, still gave me gobbleygook at first print, restarted cupsys and printer again, now I've been waiting for over 8 minutes for one page to start printing, it never takes this long | 03:54 |
| DasKreecH | dwidmann: Check that you have all the updates intel did some madness with the Drivers this go around | 03:55 |
| sixofour | I have a 180GB Drive and aan * Gb drive...If i put Kubuntu on the 8GB and leave the other as NTFS....is that doable? | 03:55 |
| sixofour | 8GB* | 03:56 |
| sixofour | Maby make a 40GB ext3 partition | 03:56 |
| * sixofour is excited, a bug in wine was fixed and now he can use linux 100% | 03:56 | |
| DasKreecH | sixofour: Yes | 03:57 |
| sixofour | But I still want to keep the xp drive as backup | 03:57 |
| sixofour | so kubuntu can read/write ntfs? | 03:58 |
| DasKreecH | Yes | 03:58 |
| sixofour | i should probably put the os /home on the 40gb drive | 03:59 |
| sixofour | and just not use the 8gb yet | 04:00 |
| sixofour | the 8gb is from 2001 | 04:00 |
| Hx63 | sixofour it so ridiculous right that some people need wine to get that 100 % . Its understandable. | 04:11 |

| dwidmann | DasKreecH: okay, I just did my updates a bit ago, mayhap I should restart X? | 04:15 |
| dwidmann | oh, and what's that command to generate an xorg.conf based on what X autodetected? | 04:15 |
| DasKreecH | dwidmann: Sure log out and press alt+e on the login screen and login | 04:16 |

| dwidmann | DasKreecH: I figured that's what you were talking about, I'm just not clear on the details ... I've heard it definitely involves tradeoffs of performance vs stability and whatnot ... | 04:38 |
| DasKreecH | I don't get it :) but for those who want it it seems it works well | 04:38 |
| Guest20936 | who's good at this ubuntu stuffs? | 04:38 |
| DasKreecH | Guest20936: Be a little more specific | 04:39 |
| Guest20936 | Not sure how to install programs that aren't listed inthe synaptic package manager... Nexuiz just downloads a folder with a bunch of files in it.. The program runs well.. but there is no shortcut in the applications menu.. not sure how to get it there.. or where to properly store the nexuiz folder.. | 04:41 |
| digdeep | Guest20936: if you want to creat a shortcut for Nexuiz, I think you need to manually create it on the applications menu | 04:43 |
| Guest20936 | aight sweet, how do you do that? | 04:44 |
| digdeep | Guest20936: right click the "start button", then go to menu editor. Finally add a new item | 04:45 |

| digdeep | Guest20936: can you download nexuiz from the official website, and run it in kubuntu, rather than using Synaptic? | 04:49 |
| Guest20936 | yea bigdeep, it doesn't come in a package though.. its an archived folder.. it'll run right out of the folder wherever you put it.. | 04:50 |

| sparr | it's the default(?) K menu in the bottom left corner | 06:05 |
| DasKreecH | ok | 06:05 |
| DasKreecH | I have a settings and a System | 06:06 |

| compusec | HI EVERYBODY, IM NEW IN UBUNTU, IM HAVING TROUBLE INSTALLING A SOFTWARE, IT TELL'S ME THAT I HAVE TO LOG ON AS THE ADMINSITRATOR FOR THE INSTALLATION, BUT ROOT USER IS DISABLE IN THIS VERSION, I CAN'T LOGON TO AS ROOT | 06:19 |
| compusec | WHAT CAN I DO ABOUT IT | 06:19 |
| DasKreecH | !caps | compusec | 06:19 |
| ubottu | compusec: PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too. | 06:19 |
| DasKreecH | !root| compusec | 06:20 |
| ubottu | compusec: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 06:20 |
| DasKreecH | compusec: when it asks for the password just use the one that you used to login | 06:20 |
| sparr | compusec: if a program tells you that you have to log on as administrator, it's wrong. | 06:20 |
| compusec | i tried | 06:20 |
| compusec | let me check that url, i'll be back | 06:21 |
| DasKreecH | !kdesudo | 06:21 |
| ubottu | In KDE use « kdesudo <program> » (or « kdesu <program> » for Feisty and earlier) to run graphical applications with root privileges when you have to. Never just use "sudo"! | See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to find out why | 06:21 |
| compusec | all right's, how i use de sudo command line | 06:24 |
| compusec | ??? | 06:24 |
| DasKreecH | compusec: What are you trying to run? | 06:24 |
| compusec | sudo command | 06:24 |
| sparr | what command? | 06:25 |
| DasKreecH | compusec: Which command is asking for root? | 06:26 |
| sparr | what software are you trying to install? | 06:26 |
| compusec | the error that is giving me is "to install software you must be logged on as this computer's administrator, bla bla bla" | 06:26 |
| DasKreecH | compusec: Right you get that when you click on what? | 06:27 |
| DasKreecH | Adept? Synaptic? Kpackagekit ? | 06:27 |
| compusec | root user is disable, and the user i created for administration is the same one im using right now, so i don't get it | 06:27 |
| compusec | when the software tries to install | 06:27 |
| DasKreecH | compusec: ah I see. Where did you get this software? | 06:28 |
| compusec | it's called invoice | 06:28 |
| compusec | express invoice | 06:28 |
| compusec | by NCH software | 06:28 |
| compusec | or something like that | 06:28 |
| DasKreecH | and what does it ask you to do to install ? | 06:28 |
| DasKreecH | run a script? | 06:28 |
| compusec | yeah, it start on terminal, then a pop-up window comes up with Licence Agreement bla bla bla | 06:29 |
| DasKreecH | Or is it Windows software ? | 06:29 |

| DasKreecH | Kpackagekit ? | 06:42 |
| compusec | it was | 06:42 |
| DasKreecH | ok | 06:42 |

| DasKreecH | Is it a text file you can read ? | 06:45 |
| compusec | let me check | 06:45 |
| compusec | can't open it with gedit or none | 06:46 |
| compusec | i don't think is a text file | 06:46 |
| DasKreecH | how big is it ? | 06:46 |
| compusec | not much | 06:46 |
| DasKreecH | and you run it with a ./filename ? | 06:47 |
| compusec | not even 1mb | 06:47 |
| compusec | i have used the program before on red hat | 06:47 |
| compusec | never had a problem with it | 06:47 |
| DasKreecH | how do you start it ? | 06:47 |
| compusec | same way | 06:47 |
| DasKreecH | ok | 06:47 |
| DasKreecH | type sudo -i | 06:47 |
| compusec | it ask for the license agreement | 06:47 |
| compusec | it installs | 06:48 |
| DasKreecH | then try start it again | 06:48 |

| Mamarok | DasKreecH: FYI: KMymoney and GnuCash are equivalent, both can handle big data sizes... | 07:03 |
| DasKreecH | Workflow is different | 07:03 |
| Mamarok | just KMM is for KDE and GnuCash is a Gnome program | 07:03 |
| kingjere | DasKreecH: I think I'm messing around with the file compusec had. when I run it, it gives Gtk-WARNING cannot open display: :0.0 | 07:04 |
| DasKreecH | capabilty wise theyare the same but when you working with a fair number of items the workflow is a little smoother | 07:04 |
| DasKreecH | kingjere: Ah it needs metacity to run That might be it | 07:04 |
| kingjere | it comes as a tar.gz when you untar it its a shell script with a tar archive inside it. | 07:05 |
| Mamarok | DasKreecH: when did you last use KMM? I really prefer it, even has the Siwws Account scheme, never had a correct one in Gnicash | 07:05 |
| Mamarok | Swiss* | 07:05 |
| DasKreecH | oh no doubt I prefer it | 07:05 |
| DasKreecH | Haven't tried Skrooge but i hear that's nice | 07:05 |
| Mamarok | your distinction is not...objective IMHO | 07:06 |
| DasKreecH | Mamarok: Also to be fair they were asking for options | 07:06 |
| DasKreecH | It is indeed an option | 07:06 |
| DasKreecH | kingjere: Yeah thought it might be something like that or a .bin fileeeee | 07:07 |
| * DasKreecH pokes the 'e' button | 07:07 | |
| Mamarok | still, you made a distinction between small and big, as if KMM could not hanlde big data, don't agree with that | 07:07 |
| DasKreecH | where distinctions get annoying is when they require a particualt windowmanager to run | 07:08 |
| DasKreecH | that's kinda annoying | 07:08 |

| sparr | what does Notifications have to do with menus opening? | 08:05 |
| sparr | what are plasma tooltips? | 08:05 |
| sparr | badly worded... i know what they are | 08:05 |
| sparr | what were you referring to by "those"? | 08:05 |
| sparr | I am talking about the actual menu | 08:05 |
| sparr | and its not just the K menu | 08:06 |
| sparr | when I left click on the Network Management widget, to see the list of network connections and available wireless networks, I see the black outline of the to-be-filled-in list first, then everything else appears after | 08:06 |
| Mamarok | sparr: you just asked on how to disable plsma tooltips, didn't you? | 08:07 |
| sparr | I don't think that I did | 08:07 |
| sparr | the animated plasma tooltips appear relatively quickly... i neither want nor need them to be animated, but that's a bridge I'll burn later | 08:08 |
| Mamarok | sorry if I misread you then, what do you want to do exactly? | 08:08 |
| sparr | when I left click on a plasma widget, including the K menu or Network Management widgets, the obvious desired result of that should happen | 08:09 |
| sparr | what I get is a black box the shape and size of the desired result... then later the contents of that box | 08:09 |
| Mamarok | hm, that doesn't happen here | 08:09 |
| superboy | how do go to buddy list on finch? | 08:09 |
| Mamarok | I get the widget directly, mayby something is slowing your system then | 08:09 |
| Mamarok | superboy: don't know, I never use IM | 08:10 |
| sparr | if that description is unclear then I could make a small animated GIF of the process | 08:10 |
| Mamarok | sparr: I think I understood what you said, but I think something is slowing down your system then | 08:10 |
| Mamarok | you get the outline seconds before the content, right? | 08:10 |
| sparr | nah | 08:11 |
| sparr | a tenth of a second maybe | 08:11 |
| Mamarok | don't have that here, not at all | 08:11 |
| Mamarok | so I think something is slowing your system | 08:11 |
| sparr | ive got top running in the background right now on a fast refresh... when i click Network Management I see plasma jump to 20-30% cpu and Xorg jump to 50-80% | 08:11 |
| sparr | for a fraction of a second | 08:12 |
| Mamarok | sparr: what version of KDE 4 do you have exactly? | 08:12 |
| sparr | the same happens when I click any widget that opens a themed popup | 08:12 |
| sparr | K menu, calendar, network manamgent | 08:12 |
| sparr | whatever is on the 9.04 CD | 08:12 |
| Mamarok | 4.2.2 then | 08:12 |
| Mamarok | there is a bugfix release available here: http://www.kubuntu.org/news/kde-4.2.3 | 08:13 |
| superboy | is there a program on synaptic or aptitude thats for loging in key-strokes? | 08:13 |
| sparr | I am doing a fresh OS install to resolve numerous problems. | 08:13 |
| sparr | I was running KDE 4.2.3 on my previous install, and it had all the same problems I am still seeing | 08:13 |
| Mamarok | superboy: no, we do not ship keyloggers... | 08:13 |
| Mamarok | sparr: what are your system specifications? | 08:14 |
| superboy | oh thanks mamarok\ | 08:14 |
| sparr | athlon 64 3500+, 2.5GB DDR2 | 08:14 |
| sparr | anything else in particular you want? | 08:14 |
| Mamarok | sparr: I suspect the graphic card | 08:15 |
| sparr | geforce 7950 GT (G71) | 08:15 |
| Mamarok | sparr: and you use the 180 driver, right? | 08:15 |
| sparr | again, I am using exactly what came on the 9.04 CD | 08:15 |
| Mamarok | sparr: are you running nepomuk and strigi? | 08:16 |
| sparr | yes, and no. | 08:16 |
| sparr | nepomukserver, that is | 08:16 |
| Mamarok | because if it's the first indexing, that takes quite some time and power | 08:17 |
| sparr | nothing but Xorg is using more than 2% CPU | 08:17 |
| sparr | CPU is 90%+ idle, except as mentioned above | 08:17 |
| Mamarok | but again, I do not have those probles you see here on my 4.2.3 box, no idea what it can be else | 08:17 |
| sparr | ignoring for the moment why the eye-candy might render slowly... I'd really just like to not have the eye candy to begin with | 08:19 |
| sparr | all the non-plasma stuff appears just fine | 08:19 |
| Mamarok | sparr: well, there is no way around plasma in KDE 4, get used to it | 08:19 |
| sparr | no. | 08:19 |
| Mamarok | and btw, that's not "just eyecand<" | 08:20 |
| sparr | I will not "get used to" system performance from the 90s. My system is perfectly capable of running a state of the art 3d-accelerated desktop with modern window management features. I had beryl+kde3 running for years. | 08:20 |
| sparr | Now KDE 4 comes and I have stability and performance issues that make me feel like I am back on my first computer | 08:21 |
| Mamarok | sparr: ok, but please take this to offtopic | 08:21 |
| sparr | by the time I am through with this problem, I will have one of three things. 1) KDE 4 working without these problems. 2) KDE 3 installed, with an even more convoluted package pinning structure than I had on my previous install. 3) Gnome. | 08:22 |
| sparr | as long as I am pursuing #1, this is not offtopic | 08:22 |
| Mamarok | sparr: !ot | 08:22 |
| Mamarok | sparr: it is, you are bitching | 08:22 |

| zortec | Is there anyone in the channel? | 08:50 |
| digdeep | zortec: questions? | 08:54 |
| zortec | digdeep: I'm trying to download the driver I need for nvidia nForce 610i/geforce 7300 video card | 08:54 |
| zortec | I can't get any of the kde effects to work | 08:54 |
| zortec | Oh and I downloaded a video but I don't know where Konquerer put it | 08:55 |
| zortec | I'm new to KDE and wanted to give it a try | 08:55 |
| digdeep | regarding to the driver: I did "start menu"-> System -> Hardware Drivers (I never download drivers & install them) | 08:57 |
| digdeep | regarding to download of Konquerer, it prompts the location where you want to download. I guess you can "download" it again to find out the path you save | 09:05 |
| coz_ | hey guys I noticed there are system sounds for a bunch of stuff ... is there a way to turn off system sound noitifications without interfering with the sound system? | 09:11 |

| bazhang | husayn, via superkaramba itself | 11:02 |
| bazhang | oops | 11:03 |

| husayn | where do files get saved... when i download widgets from superkarmba | 11:05 |
| husayn | it says.. sucessfully installed | 11:06 |
| shadeslayer | husayn: they are installed automatically | 11:06 |
| husayn | but i cant see that widget | 11:06 |
| bazhang | superkaramba allows you to use them right away | 11:06 |
| husayn | so how to get it on the background ? | 11:06 |
| shadeslayer | husayn: is it not present in the karmaba manager?? | 11:06 |
| husayn | no its not coming.. it is only showing 2 options .. one is to locate from a file and one is to get from the internet | 11:07 |
| bazhang | choose the second | 11:07 |
| husayn | i have clicked the new stuff which gives me a list.. then i click one CPU thing | 11:07 |
| husayn | it gets downloaded and says sucessfully installed | 11:07 |

| faileas | you may need to restart the app in question? | 11:17 |
| shadeslayer | sheytan_: itll take alot of time here...3 hrs | 11:17 |
| shadeslayer | sheytan_: did you logout and restart X ?? | 11:17 |
| sheytan_ | shadeslayer: woo, it was about 3 min here (8pkg), and yes, i did | 11:18 |

| vistakiller | the new kde 4.2.4 packages has problems | 11:32 |
| vistakiller | they will unistall half of my system like compiz, envyng etc | 11:32 |
| komuta | hi | 11:35 |
| komuta | about the 4.2.4 upgrade | 11:35 |
| komuta | it doesn't complete because qt is still in version 4.5.0 | 11:35 |
| komuta | from which repository is it supposed to be upgraded to 4.5.1 ? | 11:35 |
| shadeslayer | how do i theme amarok? | 11:36 |
| husayn | anybody know how to check that is my graphics card installed ?? | 11:36 |
| husayn | and how to install propritary graphics card drivers... becuase i have dell gx260 it has intel graphics card and it has picked up the driver but is not performing well.. | 11:37 |
| shadeslayer | husayn: jockey-kde | 11:37 |
| husayn | should i install it ? | 11:37 |
| husayn | it is showing no propritary drivers | 11:38 |
| shadeslayer | husayn: i mean run apt+F2 and then jockey-kde | 11:39 |
| shadeslayer | *alt | 11:39 |
| husayn | it is showing no drivers !!!! | 11:40 |
| sheytan_ | yeah, somethings wrong. when i want upgrade there's no packages for, but when distr-upgrade it want to delete alot of kde's packages, and just upgrade 4 :/ | 11:41 |
| shadeslayer | husayn: that means it is supported by default | 11:41 |
| sheytan_ | now the sources edition window doesn't work for me :/ | 11:41 |
| husayn | so i should install the driver manually !!!! | 11:42 |
| komuta | husayn: usually, Intel graphic cards driver do not need any manual nor custom install | 11:43 |
| shadeslayer | husayn: no need | 11:43 |
| komuta | husayn: there are open sourced Xorg driver available, so your card should work out of the boxc | 11:44 |
| husayn | the driver is installed by default... when i go to Settings and then click monitor and display | 11:44 |
| husayn | there i can see Intel 845 choosen | 11:44 |
| husayn | but it shows 256K memory.. while i have 8mb of memory of VGA | 11:44 |
| husayn | and i cant change that.. the 256K option is locked.... also there are other 2 options , one is standard , one is priopraitary.. this is also locked | 11:45 |
| Scherenhaenden | hi, i hav a question, what program can i use for wpa2... i was trying with knetworkmanager, but i have this manager of kubuntu karmic... n my knetwork can not my wifi-card managent | 11:46 |
| husayn | i dont thik i would be able to use.. these.. graphical options like that... 3D screen and all that using this type of graphics card | 11:46 |
| komuta | husayn: there may be no graphic interface for this settings, but I think onboard intel graphic chipset uses shared video memory from the system | 11:47 |
| husayn | hum... | 11:47 |
| husayn | i think the Kubuntu needs some extra graphics power... windows xp was just working fine with that | 11:48 |
| komuta | you can set the amount of CG dedicated memory through an option of the xorg device driver | 11:48 |
| ct529 | I solved the problem of setting up the case of the file name to lower on SDHC cards automounted by HAL! hooooray | 11:48 |
| komuta | husayn: man intel | 11:49 |
| husayn | :D | 11:49 |
| komuta | VideoRam integer | 11:49 |
| komuta | This option specifies the amount of system memory to use for graphics, in KB. | 11:49 |
| husayn | really !!!!! | 11:49 |
| husayn | is that a software ? | 11:49 |
| komuta | what is strange, is that by default you should have at least 8MB configured | 11:49 |
| komuta | no it is not, it's just the manpage for the graphic driver | 11:50 |
| Scherenhaenden | mmm | 11:50 |
| husayn | so from where to access it and change the 256K to 8MB | 11:50 |
| shadeslayer | is amarok 1.x present in the repo?? | 11:50 |
| komuta | you should look inside /var/log/Xorg.0.log | 11:50 |
| _Sih | Hey, anyone knows how to make a custom app launsher, like in GNOME? (KDE 4.2) | 11:51 |
| komuta | the amount of ram dedicated to CG by X at startup should appear in the log | 11:51 |
| husayn | its a big log file | 11:52 |
| husayn | can you tell me how to change the default video ram value ? | 11:53 |
| husayn | i have 8mb in Bios | 11:53 |
| komuta | can you use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste the log file ? | 11:53 |
| husayn | w8 | 11:54 |
| vistakiller | they will fix the problem with kde 4.2.4 or i have to remove repositories? | 11:55 |
| shadeslayer | vistakiller: everything seems fine here...apt doesnt say it will remove compiz | 11:56 |
| vistakiller | in my system will remove the half of the packages | 11:56 |
| shadeslayer | altho..meta package kubuntu-desktop is being removed :) | 11:56 |
| vistakiller | like jokey, gdebi, compiz, screensaver etc | 11:57 |
| vistakiller | i dont know why | 11:57 |
| shadeslayer | vistakiller: http://paste.ubuntu.com/187292/ | 11:57 |
| naproxeno | hi, i have the same symptoms as vistakiller, although in my case it wants to remove kubuntu-desktop and systemsettings | 11:57 |
| vistakiller | is about 30 packages tou remove | 11:57 |
| shadeslayer | naproxeno: see my paste :) | 11:58 |
| naproxeno | ok, i see... :) | 11:58 |
| shadeslayer | naproxeno: i seem to have the same symptoms as you ;)...its a packaging problem it seems | 11:59 |
| vistakiller | http://paste.ubuntu.com/187295/ | 11:59 |
| vistakiller | and this is my packages | 11:59 |
| husayn | komuta are you there | 11:59 |
| husayn | http://paste.ubuntu.com/187293/ this is my files | 11:59 |
| naproxeno | komuta mentioned early that it's because the new packages need qt 4.5.1, and the repos only have 4.5.0 | 11:59 |
| shadeslayer | Mamarok: you there?? | 12:00 |
| naproxeno | brb | 12:00 |
| vistakiller | i think must remove this repositories | 12:00 |
| vistakiller | someone will break the system if he do the update | 12:00 |
| shadeslayer | one sec everyone...ill just get this confirmed :) | 12:00 |
| shadeslayer | ack...kde 4.2.4 update was just removed from kubuntu.org | 12:01 |
| vistakiller | nice :D | 12:02 |
| shadeslayer | vistakiller: looks like a major problem with packaging...else they wouldnt have not removed it | 12:02 |

| gaboo | Hi there | 14:16 |
| gaboo | Does anyone has a problem installing kde 4.2.4 ? Apparently, some packages require qt4.5.1, which I don't have in any repos, and so can't be installed. | 14:17 |
| jeez_ | hey guys, yesterday I was building Plasma (trunk) here (kubuntu 9.04), and when I try to run it just got "Invalid D-BUS interface name 'org.kde.plasma-desktop.PlasmaApp' found while parsing introspection" and then nothing happens. Does anyone know why is this happening ?! | 14:21 |

| guyman | i'm trying to install 4.2.3 as per http://www.kubuntu.org/news/kde-4.2.3, but both apt-get and kpackagekit say there are 46 being "blocked" or "kept back" | 14:26 |
| gaboo | guyman: 4.2.4 has been added to the repos and apparently there are some dependancy problems. | 14:27 |
| p_quarles | guyman: I'm not convinced that kpackagekit is really ready, yet; try apt-get if you want a more verbose conflict message | 14:28 |
| guyman | gaboo: i guess that would explain it then. it's saying libqt4-* 4.5.1 is a dependency but 4.5.0 is about to be installed | 14:34 |
| gaboo | guyman: same here | 14:35 |
| Kiry | ok, I'm having major brain fart here | 14:35 |
| gaboo | guyman: I guess it they are aware and trying to fix because the 4.2.4 announcement has been removed from kubuntu's homepage. | 14:35 |
| Kiry | I've upgraded to kubuntu 9.04 but for some reason, Adobe Flash stopped working | 14:36 |
| Kiry | I've followed all the steps to install it but nothing seems to work | 14:36 |
| gaboo | Kiry: In konqueror ? Firefox ? | 14:36 |
| Kiry | Firefox | 14:36 |
| Mamarok | guyman: please, folks, do not yet upgrade, there are package problems! | 14:38 |
| gaboo | Mamarok: indeed. But as it was on kubuntu's home page for a moment ... i thought it was safe. | 14:38 |
| gaboo | Kiry: do you have flashplugin-nonfree installed ? | 14:39 |
| Mamarok | gaboo: yes, there was an error, I am sorry, appologies from the devs too, they are working hard on solving the problem | 14:39 |
| gaboo | for me it's as simple as installing this package, and then it works. | 14:40 |
| Mamarok | gaboo: it's more than one package... | 14:40 |
| gaboo | Mamarok: hey, no worries, not that of a problem :) | 14:40 |
| Mamarok | just be patient and hold back, I will put it in the topic once it's solved | 14:40 |
| gaboo | Mamarok: I was speaking of flash for Kiry | 14:41 |
| guyman | Mamarok: heh, i wasn't attempting to go to 4.2.4 yet, i was trying to go to 4.2.3 as per the homepage | 14:41 |
| gaboo | guyman: but it's in the same repository. | 14:41 |
| Kiry | gaboo according to the sympatic package installer, that item is checked | 14:41 |
| Mamarok | gaboo: the word is now: do not upgrade yet, there are problems currently solved, tomorrow should be good | 14:42 |
| Mamarok | please, all, do *not* upgrade now, wait till tomorrow! | 14:42 |
| guyman | 4.2.3 had similar issues, i figured those would be finally resolved since 4.2.4 now exists. but yeah, gaboo, looking back i realize what happened | 14:42 |

| Pollywog | Jaunty btw | 17:46 |
| robertknight | Pollywog: Presumably plasma-desktop failed to start? | 17:46 |
| robertknight | Try launching it manually | 17:46 |
| robertknight | (It might be called just 'plasma' in KDE 4.2 - I can't remember) | 17:46 |
| Pollywog | k thanks | 17:46 |
| Pollywog | robertknight, yes it starts with plasma.kde4 | 17:47 |
| The_Bault | hum, what's the name of Konqueror in the "adept installer" | 17:47 |
| Pollywog | I get a desktop with that command | 17:47 |
| swatto | Anyone know if it is possible to edit the login screen or get themes for it please? | 17:47 |
| The_Bault | please? | 17:48 |
| tsimpson | The_Bault: use adept manager, not adept installer | 17:48 |
| The_Bault | Tanks a lot. | 17:48 |
| szilvi | any ideas on my issue :) ? | 17:48 |
| Pollywog | any ideas why plasma would not automatically start? | 17:48 |
| tsimpson | szilvi: use "dpkg -L assaultcube" too see all the installed files, and please don't post the whole list here | 17:48 |
| vivanco | why kubuntu 9.04 is too slow whi 512 of ram | 17:49 |
| szilvi | well... the command wouldn't work | 17:49 |
| genii | szilvi: Did you install it from the package manager, or download some tar.gz file, or something else, etc? | 17:49 |
| tsimpson | szilvi: there is a difference between "dpkg -l" and "dpkg -L" | 17:49 |
| Pollywog | tsimpson, yes | 17:49 |
| szilvi | i can't install it with kpacagekit | 17:50 |
| szilvi | it's not there | 17:50 |
| tsimpson | genii: looks like a getdeb package | 17:50 |
| robertknight | Pollywog: I'm not sure where plasma-desktop is started from | 17:50 |
| szilvi | i got it from get-deb | 17:50 |
| Pollywog | -L tells you what files are part of the package | 17:50 |
| Pollywog | robertknight, ty | 17:50 |
| Pollywog | it's a start | 17:50 |
| szilvi | and it installed... but it won't show up on the app starter | 17:50 |
| Pollywog | I will figure it out eventually | 17:50 |
| robertknight | Although you could always add it to KDE's autostart settings | 17:50 |
| robertknight | Though that is not a proper-fix | 17:50 |
| tsimpson | szilvi: you need to use use "dpkg -L assaultcube" too see all the installed files, and look for files with "bin/" in it | 17:51 |
| szilvi | /usr/share/games/assaultcube/ac_server | 17:52 |
| szilvi | maybe this one, cause i don't see any bins | 17:52 |
| tsimpson | that may be the game server rather than the game itself | 17:52 |
| szilvi | ooops i pasted the wrong line... there's a "ac_client" file... i think it's a binary | 17:53 |
| szilvi | /usr/share/games/assaultcube/ac_client | 17:53 |
| tsimpson | szilvi: it may be, are there any .desktop files? | 17:54 |
| szilvi | i'm a noob... I think you all guessed that already :P | 17:54 |

| skafti | hello im having a problem with my kmail is someone good at this | 18:14 |
| Kanerix | Is it possible to burn aac (m4a) tracks onto a CD easily? | 18:17 |
| Kanerix | is there a codec I can download and use? | 18:18 |
| rjune | Kanerix: I would look at k3b | 18:18 |
| rjune | It might do what you want | 18:19 |
| Kanerix | I tried k3b but it won't import the m4a files | 18:19 |
| Kanerix | they aren't DRM'd either | 18:19 |
| Kanerix | I suspect I don't have the correct codecs or plugins for it or something | 18:19 |
| Kanerix | also, what command do I use to determine what version of kubuntu I have? I think it's 9.04 but I may be wrong | 18:21 |
| ubunturos | Kanerix: lsb_release -all | 18:21 |
| ubunturos | Kanerix: lsb_release -a * | 18:21 |
| ubunturos | not all, but just a | 18:22 |
| Kanerix | alright it is 9.04 | 18:22 |
| Kanerix | does that work on most distros? | 18:22 |
| ubunturos | Kanerix: as far as I'm aware, it works on *buntus | 18:23 |
| Kanerix | ah worked on my suse server as well, and thats rather old | 18:23 |
| Pici | If the distro is going for LSB compliance (which many major ones do), then it believe it has to respond to that command. | 18:23 |
| Kanerix | is there a command to determine the date of the original install? | 18:23 |
| Kanerix | cool | 18:24 |
| Kanerix | thats good to know | 18:24 |

| ubunturos | carolija: you wouldn't need to download a lot of packages from the internet | 18:58 |
| ubunturos | carolija: however, may need to update when bugs / security fixes are applied to them | 18:58 |

| carolija | i have that one too just not installd | 18:59 |
| carolija | thank you :) | 18:59 |
| ubunturos | carolija: welcome. | 19:00 |
| carolija | If i have both , what u addvice to install ? | 19:00 |
| ubunturos | carolija: btw, do you have broadband internet? | 19:00 |
| carolija | 4Gb or other one | 19:00 |
| carolija | yea i hav | 19:00 |
| carolija | have* (my keyboard sux) | 19:00 |
| ubunturos | carolija: that would depend on if you have download limits on your internet connection | 19:00 |
| carolija | i have no limits | 19:00 |
| carolija | ill try for the change this one of 4GB, have to reinstall the system | 19:01 |
| ubunturos | carolija: good, for a reasonably faster and minimal install, use the CD. For a customized installation of packages from for the distro, use the DVD | 19:01 |
| carolija | yes, ill do that ubunturos , thnx for advice man | 19:01 |
| ubunturos | carolija: if you have already installed from the CD, then no use using the DVD | 19:02 |
| carolija | but i will delete it | 19:02 |
| carolija | i need to format PC ;/ | 19:02 |
| ubunturos | carolija: may be you can give it to someone who doesn't have an internet connection | 19:02 |
| ubunturos | carolija: update your installation via the internet, though | 19:02 |
| carolija | i did that already , heh , to my friend | 19:03 |
| carolija | just problem is in my PC , ill will open it now and see in side whats wrong | 19:03 |

| carolija | ist strange ... | 19:05 |
| carolija | its* | 19:05 |
| TheGrammarFreak | carolija: If your PC freezes after about half an hour you may need to look into your CPU overheating | 19:05 |
| ubunturos | carolija: my system too experienced a similar issue, in order to isolate, I ran my computer only into the BIOS mode | 19:05 |
| ubunturos | carolija: and when if hung, it showed up " !!! " in fields of BIOS | 19:06 |
| carolija | hmmz, maybe ther is the point TheGrammarFreak | 19:06 |
| TheGrammarFreak | carolija: I just replaced the heat sink compound, and mine runs smoothly now | 19:06 |
| carolija | ubunturos: wan i am in bios h work fine lol | 19:06 |
| carolija | so maybe is the same ... | 19:07 |
| ubunturos | carolija: oh, I see. | 19:07 |
| ubunturos | carolija: may be something else | 19:07 |
| carolija | yea, thats why ill will open it now just to check | 19:07 |
| carolija | after will see | 19:07 |

| rebecka | i do - it fixes the problem just for a while, then this thing comes up again | 19:26 |
| harjot | GOD u pc has issues | 19:26 |
| harjot | btwq | 19:26 |
| harjot | 9.04 is good but has quiote a few bugs] | 19:26 |
| harjot | anyway 8.04 is still the best so far | 19:27 |
| harjot | 8.10 was a nice design but useless.... | 19:27 |
| cjae | or kpackagekit so I didnt install them all so I searched 47 blocked updates in google, and found that it maybe attributed to issues with kpackagekit and someone reccommended sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 19:28 |
| harjot | thats all right actually | 19:28 |
| harjot | try it | 19:28 |
| cjae | so I did that and it listed some things that needed to be upgraded 16 megs, and now upon rebooting I have no xserver or an issue where both screens are black | 19:29 |
| harjot | right | 19:29 |
| cjae | does anyone know how to revert these upgrades or fix the issue | 19:30 |

| carolija | i got that, is it help ? | 19:35 |
| cjae | daskreecH, I am thinking that maybe those packages were held back for a reason, and might not have been an issue with kpackagekit | 19:35 |
| daskreecH | carolija: Umm ok press alt+Ctrl+F7 | 19:35 |
| harjot | i have the same packageing issue | 19:35 |
| daskreecH | cjae: Maybe. You should have done a sudo apt-get upgrade first | 19:36 |

| harjot | if u have other packages from a nother distro [i ve got some from 8.10 but im on 8.04] the dependencies get messed up and gtherefore the the version is too high and so the pacckafes will nbe held | 19:37 |

| kaktuskatta | hi! I'm not able to play sound through ALSA or PulseAudio | 19:39 |
| daskreecH | in /var/log/ | 19:39 |
| kaktuskatta | I've tried different things, and the only thing that seems to be working is the OSS drivers, /dev/dsp | 19:40 |
| kaktuskatta | The problem with those are the options, and that I'm not able to get the volume high enough | 19:40 |
| kaktuskatta | This was not a a problem when I used ubuntu | 19:40 |
| kaktuskatta | I edited /etc/group, added my username, didn't help much | 19:41 |
| kaktuskatta | any ideas? | 19:41 |
| kaktuskatta | As it is now, I'm barely able to hear a thing | 19:41 |
| kaktuskatta | VLC and others act all normal when ran from konsole | 19:42 |
| cjae | daskreecH, it is not likely to be an issue with xorg, right, but that is a major cause of the x server errors | 19:42 |
| daskreecH | cjae: If I were to lay a bet it would be that it's with the compositing being turned on in KDE | 19:42 |
| daskreecH | But I can't say that's what the issue is since I have no idea | 19:43 |
| cjae | daskreecH, are you usng kde 4.2? | 19:43 |
| daskreecH | yu can loko in ~/.xsession-errors to try and find out | 19:43 |
| daskreecH | In a manner of speaking | 19:43 |
| InforMed | https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=193573 --- Can someone confirm this bug? It's annoying! | 19:43 |
| cjae | daskreecH, I have an nvidia card and all compositing was working great with the properitary drivers, except separate xscreens | 19:45 |
| daskreecH | cjae: I would have guessed intel but nvidia has been doing strange things with it's drivers recently too | 19:45 |
| cjae | daskreecH, what is an equivalent of wgetpaste in ubuntu so I could post the errors somewhere, since I dont have a desktop environment anymore | 19:47 |
| daskreecH | But again without some error trail to say what's causing it I can't say what may be the culprit | 19:47 |
| daskreecH | cjae: apt-get install pastebinit | 19:47 |
| unix | has anyohne here successfulkly installed flash 10? | 19:48 |
| cjae | and how do you use it daskreecH I have I sight idea but cli is so specific | 19:48 |
| daskreecH | either run a command with | pastebinit at the end or if you want to pastebin a file type pastebinit /path/to/file | 19:49 |
| kaktuskatta | unix: yes | 19:49 |
| unix | how? | 19:50 |
| cjae | daskreecH, and what site does that direct to, the ubuntu pastebin? | 19:50 |
| daskreecH | Yes | 19:50 |
| kaktuskatta | unix: Download the flash-packet from adobes homepage | 19:50 |
| daskreecH | it will return you a URL just give us the URL | 19:50 |
| unix | ive tried removing the previous flash plugin, downloading the new flash 10.deb, installed, and even placed the .so files in the plugins folder manually, and nothing works | 19:50 |
| cjae | daskreecH, ok I might be a second since I am on the windows partiton right now, thanks | 19:51 |
| daskreecH | unix: Did you purge the plugin or just remove it? | 19:51 |

| unix | from the .deb file on that page | 19:52 |
| cjae | daskreecH, which OS | 19:52 |
| unix | and it doesnt list the plugin | 19:52 |

| kaktuskatta | unix: no flashplugin appears when you type about:plugins in FF? | 19:54 |
| cjae | ok | 19:54 |
| unix | none | 19:54 |
| daskreecH | might want to write those down :-) | 19:54 |

| kaktuskatta | hmm... as you mention it... I do remember having some trouble with hardy and the newest flash. Do you really need the newest? I think I used flash 9 | 19:56 |
| unix | its not that big of a deal, the flashplugin-nonfree one wors, i just cant watch hulu, or anything requiring flash 10 | 19:57 |
| daskreecH | cjae: possibly but it's still alot faster and since we can help you it's pretty easy to switch back and forth | 19:57 |
| kaktuskatta | I C | 19:58 |
| unix | time to upgrade to 9.04 x.X | 19:58 |
| unix | im starting to hate ubuntu, everytime something new is released you have to upgrade spit x.X | 19:59 |
| cjae | daskreecH, no I was just wondering cause I have never used cli irc b4. ok will give it a shot brb | 19:59 |
| kaktuskatta | unix: Hehe....it's not that bad | 19:59 |
| kaktuskatta | unix: I was on hardy using gnome for a long time until recently because I was curious about KDE | 20:00 |
| unix | im actually using xubuntu | 20:00 |
| sparr | In KDE 4.2.2 when I click a plasma widget on the panel (K menu, network management, clock/calendar) and the themed result pops up, I see a black placeholder popup first, then the contents fill in. I had this problem in 4.2.3 after many upgrades, and now in 4.2.2 on a fresh kubuntu 9.04 install. Help? | 20:00 |
| unix | i guess i have to upgrade to 8.10, then 9.04 | 20:01 |
| unix | x.X | 20:01 |
| unix | i dont have any more cds or i would just d/l the new image :P | 20:01 |
| unix | im just gonna try updating firefox first i guess | 20:02 |
| kaktuskatta | unix: It's possible to install from a flash disk, I've done that when I were in the same situation. However, this requires that your PC can boot from a USB stick | 20:03 |
| unix | yeah, i might do that if this doesnt work, rather than wait for another 3 hours for updates | 20:04 |
| kaktuskatta | unix: You don't happen to be some sort of audio genious by chance? | 20:05 |
| unix | why what you need? | 20:05 |
| kaktuskatta | unix: I'm not able to play sound ! | 20:05 |
| unix | with what program? | 20:05 |
| harjot | who has falsh issues??? | 20:06 |
| harjot | flash?? | 20:06 |
| unix | everyone does harjot | 20:06 |
| kaktuskatta | any program as long as I set it to ALSA | 20:06 |
| unix | im trying to upgrade my firefox to see if that works | 20:06 |
| harjot | ?????is that meant to be a joke??????? | 20:06 |
| unix | your using 8.04 right harjot? | 20:06 |
| unix | does the sound work when you set it to oss? | 20:07 |
| kaktuskatta | unix: the only sound driver working is the OSS driver, which all in all is not that compatible with other applications than a few selected | 20:07 |
| harjot | unix: yes | 20:07 |
| kaktuskatta | unix: This wasn't a problem when I was on hardy | 20:07 |
| kaktuskatta | unix: Neither pulseaudio nor ALSA works now, quite annoying | 20:08 |
| unix | harjot all i can say i know so far is try to upgrade your firefox to the latest version then install the plugin | 20:08 |
| kaktuskatta | I've checked /etc/group and made some changes, but no luck | 20:08 |
| unix | and kaktuskatta; that is wierd indeed | 20:08 |
| harjot | no, my flash works fine with sound and alll | 20:08 |
| kaktuskatta | as long as the app sends sound to the /dev/dsp it works (this is OSS), but the support in different apps is close to none | 20:09 |
| unix | do you have two cards installed on the computer? | 20:09 |
| harjot | how do i remove intrepid packages from an 8.04 system | 20:09 |
| Mamarok | daskreecH: don't chuckle too loud, I might hear you :) | 20:10 |
| cjae | daskreecH, ok I installed irssi and used irrssi -c irc.ubuntu.com be is refuses connection | 20:10 |
| unix | until yesterday i had a similar problem with sound, as i had two cards in the computer, one onboard and my soundblaster | 20:10 |
| === blizzzek is now known as blizzz | ||
| unix | i had to keep switching back and forth between the two for different things, if thats the case with yours, i would suggest removing one card | 20:11 |
| kaktuskatta | unix: I don't have two cards, this is a laptop | 20:11 |
| cjae | is there something the gui would be doing to make it through the firewall? I see I must connect to port 8001 so I assume that must need to be forwarded | 20:12 |
| cjae | daskreecH, | 20:12 |
| kaktuskatta | unix: what i do have, is a TV-capture card. This is sometimes detected as some sort of audio equipment, but I don't think that's it | 20:12 |
| unix | oh lol i dunno then, this is why i was saying im getting sick of ubuntu, it took me three days to install my gfx drivers, and there not even on my gpy supported list, which is ignorant | 20:12 |
| unix | but thats ubuntu for you | 20:12 |
| cjae | since I have never had to port forwarded for irc before? daskreecH | 20:13 |
| kaktuskatta | unix: not related to the distro, you would have the same problem in eg. fedora | 20:13 |
| kaktuskatta | unix: the problems is the lack of good drivers | 20:13 |
| unix | i just randomly installed about 30 nvidia drivers, and one of the oldest linux ones in existance worked | 20:13 |
| unix | and it doesnt even support my card | 20:13 |
| unix | yeah :P | 20:14 |
| === andrea is now known as Guest27492 | ||
| kaktuskatta | unix: the socalled restricted drivers should give you the best performance, that is if they exist | 20:14 |
| kaktuskatta | unix: ATi is said to be better supported in unix systems | 20:14 |
| unix | yeah, i tried that right off the bat, and they didnt work | 20:15 |
| unix | i used the nvidia-glx-new driver | 20:15 |
| unix | tand its version is 169.07.03 | 20:15 |
| kaktuskatta | unix: Not in my case. I recently discovered that their drivers are incompatible with Jaunty | 20:15 |
| kaktuskatta | unix: Weee | 20:15 |
| unix | i switched to the one off nvidias site thats 169.07.01 and it works, but my fx5500 isnt even supported by that driver, so says nvidias site | 20:15 |
| kaktuskatta | unix: Oh, the irony. If I just stayed with hardy, the drivers would be supported | 20:16 |
| unix | yet you need jaunty for flash lol | 20:16 |
| unix | gotta love linux xD | 20:16 |
| kaktuskatta | unix: there's always something | 20:16 |
| kaktuskatta | unix: that being said, I wouldnt go back to windowa | 20:17 |
| === mike is now known as Guest96273 | ||
| unix | i was using win7 up until recently, i just decided to switch back to linux for a lower latency on a few online games | 20:17 |
| kaktuskatta | unix: The vast amount of free software, the stability (usually), and the price talked me into it | 20:18 |
| unix | but imo win7 is 10x what ubuntu will ever be | 20:18 |
| unix | be back in a bit though, ive been talking and still havent gotten my firefox updated lol | 20:19 |
| kaktuskatta | unix: I'm not so sure, most of the fancy things you can do in win7 is close to what's possible with good graphic drivers in ubuntu | 20:19 |
| cjae | daskreecH, are you here? | 20:19 |
| kaktuskatta | unix: Gotta go, I have to start packing. I'm taking a flight tomorrow morning :) | 20:20 |
| unix | cya | 20:20 |
| kaktuskatta | unix: nice talking to you. Good luck with flash! | 20:20 |
| unix | hopefully it works once i get this upgraded :P | 20:20 |
| cjae | is anyone else using irssi? do I have to do more than irssi -c irc.ubuntu.com, like do I have to irssi -c irc.ubuntu.com/8001 or must I forward that port in router? | 20:20 |
| Mamarok | cjae: usually I do /con freenode | 20:25 |
| cjae | so irssi /con freenode | 20:26 |
| phoenixz | When plasma crashes and does not auto-restart.. How can I start plasma again? I recall in 4.1 I could just run "plasma" from ALT-F2, but in KDE4.3 beta I can not start it manually anymore | 20:28 |
| cjae | Mamarok, what I am wondering is that, I must be because its using port 8001 and not 6667, do most router software accept connectoion for irc on 6667 by default | 20:28 |
| === magical_trevsky is now known as magical | ||
| Mamarok | cjae: I start irssi in a screen session so I am always online | 20:29 |
| Mamarok | cjae: default for IRC is 6667, you should use that | 20:29 |
| harjot | windows sucks so badly | 20:30 |
| harjot | kubuntu = OS 1/2/3/4 | 20:30 |
| Mamarok | harjot: please, no OS bashing here... | 20:30 |
| cjae | Mamarok, but then you get those dcc exploits do you? I am thinking I could just use irssi -c irc.freenode.net cause it uses 6667 right? | 20:30 |
| harjot | aohhhhhh......... i like killing windows it deleted my 20% from my exam | 20:30 |
| Mamarok | phoenixz: start plasma in a konsole tab | 20:30 |
| canen | i found a solution to the samba issue. good thingh i decide to investigate once again http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1169149 | 20:30 |
| harjot | how do i remove intrepid packages from an 8.04 system | 20:31 |
| harjot | becasue all dependensies are mixed up | 20:31 |
| harjot | now | 20:31 |
| phoenixz | Mamarok: already gottit from KDE channel, its plasma-desktop, for anybody interrested.. | 20:31 |
| phoenixz | Mamarok: thanks anyway! | 20:31 |
| Mamarok | harjot: ... why did you add those? | 20:31 |
| Mamarok | phoenixz: you are welcome :) | 20:31 |
| cjae | Mamarok, or what can I issue to make irc.ubuntu.com use 6667 ? | 20:32 |
| harjot | i didnt so,mething went wrong.... | 20:32 |
| Mamarok | cjae: irssi needs some tweaking first, did you make a configuration file? | 20:32 |
| cjae | no | 20:33 |
| harjot | it somehow had intrepid repositoreies and isntalled upadtes for itnrepid [ouch.......] | 20:33 |
| phoenixz | Im using Kubuntu 9.04 with KDE4.3 beta installed. Im experimenting with vlans, and now have eth0 and eth0.110. The latter now carries my network connection.. I all did this from command line, but right now the plasma network applet basically shows me as not having network connection. Also, all apps using networking go haywire.. Firefox for example, stays in "offline mode" while there is network.. Is this a bug, or just a result of doing stuff manually? | 20:33 |
| harjot | so i cant update and I NEED to | 20:33 |
| Mamarok | cjae: normally it creates a default one | 20:33 |
| Mamarok | cjae: check in .irssi for the conf file | 20:33 |
| cjae | Mamarok, ok | 20:34 |
| harjot | i cant even install irssi!?!?!? | 20:34 |
| harjot | because i cant download | 20:34 |
| Mamarok | phoenixz: result of your tweaking, it expects things elsewhere | 20:34 |
| harjot | so im using ******** windoze | 20:34 |
| harjot | fro irc | 20:34 |
| Mamarok | harjot: behave, please! | 20:34 |
| harjot | soz | 20:34 |
| harjot | are u a moderator | 20:34 |
| Mamarok | harjot: do you have your /home on a separate partition? | 20:34 |
| harjot | yes | 20:35 |
| harjot | dual boot | 20:35 |
| phoenixz | Mamarok: I suppose KDE doesnt know much yet about vlans? | 20:35 |
| harjot | but i can read from windows my ext3 dreove | 20:35 |
| harjot | drive | 20:35 |
| Mamarok | phoenixz: I really don't know, newer used that, must me pretty experimental I guess | 20:35 |
| cjae | Mamarok, what I am asking is in most router software is 6667 enabled by default? and this would be why I have never needed to open ports for irc? | 20:35 |
| Mamarok | harjot: when I say /home on a different partition I mean not on the same as the / folders | 20:36 |
| phoenixz | Mamarok: I suppose its pretty new yes, but its quite easy actually.. | 20:36 |
| harjot | its on the ext3 patition | 20:36 |
| Mamarok | cjae: 6667 is the default port for IRC, always :) | 20:36 |
| harjot | i only have 2 partitions [windows and kubuntu] not including swap | 20:36 |
| Mamarok | harjot: so you only have one ext3 partition, whihc means you do *not* have /home on a separate partition | 20:37 |
| Mamarok | which* | 20:37 |
| cjae | Mamarok, I am not trying to be rude but I am not sure you have answered my question | 20:37 |
| harjot | why do u ask??? | 20:37 |
| Mamarok | harjot: because that would have allowed you to just reinstall Kubuntu, without losing your /home stuff | 20:37 |
| harjot | good idea | 20:37 |
| harjot | would it also be an idea to get rid of windoze to??? | 20:38 |
| harjot | if i use the livecd to copy | 20:38 |
| Mamarok | harjot: you should consider maing a second ext3 parition, how big is the current one? | 20:38 |
| harjot | 110gb | 20:38 |
| harjot | for a latop | 20:38 |
| Mamarok | harjot: if you really want to remove windows completely, you can just install Linux in the Windows partition, but there is no going back unless you have a recovery CD for Windows | 20:39 |
| harjot | but the thing is mykubuntu has been setup so nicely esoecially for things like toolchains | 20:39 |
| harjot | btw if u install kubutnu first u have a faster os cause it reads on the outside or something faster | 20:39 |
| cjae | Mamarok, the reason I ask is because I have never needed to port forward for irc with a gui client but now that I am trying with a cli (or ncurses one) I cannot connect | 20:39 |
| marco111 | cauky | 20:39 |
| cjae | but I can ping irc.ubuntu.com Mamarok | 20:40 |
| cjae | so the issue has to be with me | 20:40 |
| Mamarok | cjae: I think so, start with the default settings before tweaking stuff, it's easier :) | 20:40 |
| cjae | Mamarok, I didnt irc.ubuntu.com uses port 8001 by default now with irssi | 20:41 |
| Mamarok | hm, my default port is 6667 | 20:42 |
| harjot | Mamarok: what do u suggest i do??? last option = reinstall | 20:42 |
| jussi01 | Mamarok: probably cause you have copied the config over from old ones, no? | 20:42 |
| Mamarok | harjot: why do you not want to upgrade to Intrepid? | 20:42 |
| jussi01 | most of the clients in kubuntu are patched to 8001 now | 20:43 |
| Mamarok | jussi01: might well be, I have this cinfig for Irssi since ages :) | 20:43 |
| sparr | People tell me that Qt4 is slow, is there a way to get KDE4 to use Qt3? | 20:43 |
| Mamarok | config* | 20:43 |
| cjae | Mamarok, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/irssi/+bug/263259 | 20:43 |
| jussi01 | sparr: no | 20:43 |
| Mamarok | sparr: no way, KDE4 is based on Qt4 | 20:43 |
| cjae | . | 20:43 |
| Mamarok | sparr: and it's not slow, don't know who told you that | 20:43 |
| jussi01 | sparr: there is a jaunty version with kde3 though | 20:43 |
| sparr | jussi01: I know, I'm installing it tonight | 20:43 |
| cjae | brb | 20:44 |
| Mamarok | a non official one | 20:44 |
| harjot | becuase hardy is bug free alsmost and has little issues with intel + if i wante4d to udate i cant know | 20:44 |
| sparr | KDE 4 will be ready in another eyar or two I think | 20:44 |
| jussi01 | Mamarok: yes, an unofficial one (thanks) | 20:44 |
| Mamarok | harjot: aaahh, bug free... | 20:44 |
| jussi01 | sparr: try to keep it to tecnichal questions in here, rather than opinions | 20:45 |
| sparr | jussi01: Every "technical question" I ask ends up with "KDE 4 is just slower like that, get used to it" | 20:45 |
| harjot | yes im also a c programer who is 12 years old!!!! | 20:45 |
| sparr | or "That feature isn't in KDE 4" | 20:45 |
| Mamarok | sparr: still its OT here, so please respect that | 20:45 |
| daskreecH | sparr: No need to get used to it :-) | 20:46 |
| Mamarok | daskreecH: ... | 20:46 |
| Mamarok | harjot: can you save your date from /home? | 20:47 |
| Mamarok | data* | 20:47 |
| harjot | yes | 20:47 |
| harjot | but i really dont want to lose config | 20:47 |
| Mamarok | what config is it exactly? | 20:47 |
| Mamarok | harjot: you mean installed packages? | 20:48 |
| harjot | no | 20:48 |
| Mamarok | harjot: if you save all your /home and the /etc folder this saves the configuration files | 20:48 |
| harjot | things like toolchains for programming stuff like remotejoy which tolk months to get working | 20:48 |
| sparr | Mamarok: prior to the decision being made to abandon KDE 3, where would it have been on-topic to discuss (and argue against) the transition? | 20:48 |
| harjot | toolchains etc /./ | 20:49 |
| harjot | are stored elsewhere [dunnno where | 20:49 |
| harjot | ] | 20:49 |
| Mamarok | sparr: this is a support channel, discussion is in #kubuntu-offtopic | 20:49 |
| harjot | but u might have a point about reinstalling] | 20:49 |
| Mamarok | harjot: and you don't know where those are installed? | 20:49 |
| Mamarok | harjot: so you didn't do it yourself? | 20:50 |
| sparr | Mamarok: ok, I will restrict my questions to actually resolving my problems then | 20:50 |
| cjae | yea | 20:50 |
| Mamarok | sparr: thanks | 20:50 |
| cjae | Mamarok: ok how do you close irssi? | 20:51 |
| harjot | no installed it but dont know where the packages go and cant be stuffed [im only 12]! | 20:51 |
| Mamarok | cjae: just do /quit | 20:51 |
| cjae | ok | 20:51 |
| Mamarok | harjot: what toolchains are you talking about? | 20:51 |
| harjot | PSP pacifically [lol about grammar] | 20:52 |
| Mamarok | harjot: if thoe are regular packages, then the config files are either in /home or /etc anyway | 20:52 |
| Mamarok | those* | 20:52 |
| harjot | thats not eevn a package or not regualar | 20:52 |
| harjot | ok i might reconsider ur option but kubuntus to pretty to die!!!! | 20:53 |
| Mamarok | harjot: just reinstall it after you save the /home and /etc folders | 20:53 |
| Mamarok | make a backup with rsync | 20:54 |
| sparr | Any time I see a plasma-themed (please correct my terminology if needed) screen element displayed, I first see a blank black background of the element, then the contents appear. This happened in KDE 4.1, 4.2.2, 4.2.3, on debian unstable, kubuntu intrepid, kubuntu jaunty, with nvidia, nv, or vesa video drivers. How can I fix this? | 20:54 |
| harjot | problem i cant get into kdm only tty | 20:54 |
| daskreecH | sparr: You mean a plasmoid? | 20:54 |
| daskreecH | Or anything against a pllasma element Panels menus etc ? | 20:55 |
| harjot | ok i create seccind partition and reinstall kubuntu | 20:55 |
| harjot | but how would i get it to automatically reinstall the packages i lose or at leat have a list of whta to install | 20:56 |
| Mamarok | harjot: save your data first! | 20:56 |
| cjae | http://pastebin.com/f4e60dd55 | 20:56 |
| Mamarok | harjot: you can get a list of the packages, just beware you have Intrepid packages too in your system | 20:56 |
| sparr | daskreecH: I am not sure. I am referring to the things that appear when left clicking on the K menu, Device Notifier, Network Managment, or Clock widgets on my panel | 20:56 |
| Mamarok | sparr: wrong channel... | 20:57 |
| harjot | how do i get a list??? | 20:57 |
| daskreecH | sparr: pop up menus ? | 20:57 |
| Mamarok | oops, /me is confised now | 20:57 |
| sparr | Mamarok: how is this not a technical question?!? | 20:57 |
| daskreecH | or context menus as they are called? | 20:57 |
| sparr | daskreecH: i wouldnt call the calendar a menu | 20:57 |
| Mamarok | sparr: sorry, misreaed and switched channels too fast, my bad | 20:57 |
| daskreecH | oh left click | 20:57 |
| daskreecH | sorry | 20:57 |
| Mamarok | harjot: wait, I get you the instruction | 20:57 |
| cjae | how do I select text in cli eg. when I used pastebinit ~/.xsession-errors, how can I highlight the url to paste in here? | 20:58 |
| daskreecH | sparr: do you have compositing on? | 20:58 |
| daskreecH | cjae: hi :) | 20:58 |
| daskreecH | cjae: Umm not sure I was told there is a way but I normally just transcribe | 20:58 |
| cjae | daskreecH: hi :) I finally got it | 20:59 |
| daskreecH | sparr: You have compositing on? | 20:59 |
| sparr | I don't know. Don't think so. I am running Kubuntu 9.04 fresh out of the box. | 20:59 |
| cjae | in slackware there is a way to use the mouse in cli, but I cant remember what its called | 20:59 |
| Mamarok | harjot: check here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=479071 | 21:00 |
| cjae | daskreecH: did you see my pastebin? | 21:00 |
| sparr | daskreecH: how can i check if compositing is on? | 21:00 |
| daskreecH | sparr: when you press alt+tab do you get a white vertical box with the list of the programs open or does the program fade back with a horizontal visual listing of the programs? | 21:01 |
| daskreecH | cjae: No what was it? | 21:01 |
| harjot | ok ty | 21:01 |
| daskreecH | I just came back from the supermarket | 21:01 |
| cjae | http://pastebin.com/f4e60dd55 daskreecH | 21:01 |
| Mamarok | harjot: there also is an option synaptic to do that btw | 21:01 |
| sparr | daskreecH: im using VNC right now, can't alt+tab, another way to check? | 21:01 |
| harjot | i cant use synaptic | 21:02 |
| daskreecH | sparr: umm press alt+F3 and check window behaviour See if desktop effects is checked as enabled | 21:02 |
| * cjae would like to thank Mamarok and daskreecH for helping him to use cli irc | 21:02 | |
| Mamarok | harjot: ok, never mind then | 21:02 |
| daskreecH | cjae: It's very helpful | 21:02 |
| Mamarok | cjae: yaw :) | 21:02 |
| sparr | daskreecH: Desktop Effects are not enabled | 21:03 |
| daskreecH | ok let me turn mine off then | 21:03 |
| harjot | thanks mamarak | 21:03 |
| harjot | bye | 21:03 |
| daskreecH | Mamarok: Does KDE need knotify running? | 21:03 |
| sparr | daskreecH: I would point out, however, that with both gnome and kde 3 I am able to run compiz with all the bells and whistles (with the nvidia driver, not the other two) | 21:03 |
| daskreecH | sparr: ah ok Yes for a split second there is a black box before that widget is painted | 21:04 |
| Mamarok | daskreecH: yes, if you want the infos to pop up | 21:04 |
| cjae | daskreecH: what is transcribing | 21:04 |
| daskreecH | Mamarok: Look at cjae's pastebin kdeinit dies as soon as knotify starts what could cause that? | 21:05 |
| daskreecH | cjae: Looking at the URL and then retyping it over here :) | 21:05 |
| Mamarok | cjae: got it | 21:05 |
| daskreecH | sparr: what about the black box? | 21:05 |
| sparr | daskreecH: can I cite you when people tell me "no one else has that problem"? | 21:06 |
| daskreecH | You can cite whoever you like | 21:06 |
| mikro | cjae: look for gpm | 21:06 |
| daskreecH | Why is it a problem for you? | 21:06 |
| sparr | because that "split second" can be a tenth of a second, or a whole second, depending on what else is going on | 21:07 |
| sparr | and when the vnc screen updates | 21:07 |
| Mamarok | daskreecH: that's not knotify4 that kills it, it's another process | 21:07 |
| daskreecH | sparr: Ah well What KDE is doing is triple buffering the image | 21:07 |
| Mamarok | daskreecH: looks like something is not installed correctly, missing packages or missing conf, kbuildsycoca4 is running repeatedly | 21:08 |
| daskreecH | Here it does it visibly the first time (part of a second) after that I don't see it again | 21:08 |
| Mamarok | cjae: you are trying to run KDE4 in a VM? | 21:08 |
| daskreecH | I"m guessing the network latency makes it a lot more pronounced for you | 21:08 |
| tnuic | hi, I installed ubuntu via Wubi and now I installed the kubuntu package... is there a way or script to set the default programs according to kubuntu? for example, mp3 are associated to totem | 21:08 |
| daskreecH | Mamarok: cjae was told to do a sudo apt-get dist-upgrade which resulted in this situation | 21:08 |
| sparr | daskreecH: its pretty bad non-vnc too, especially when cpu usage is high | 21:09 |
| daskreecH | Yes well if it's not doing compositing then the CPU is going to be doing the drawing so that would exaggerate it | 21:09 |
| cjae | sorry to whoever is asking questions because I was in aother tty and I just figred out how to page up in the channel lol | 21:09 |
| Mamarok | cjae: which KDE4 are you running? | 21:09 |
| cjae | I will try to answer quickly no I am not on vm | 21:10 |
| mikro | cjae: look for gpm | 21:10 |
| cjae | mikro: thanks that is it | 21:10 |
| daskreecH | As I recall (don't take this a gospel) they were working on a containment that would be suitable for terminal sessions and other situations where there is a network involved and the host machine has very little resources | 21:10 |
| coz_ | hey guys...how do I open dolphin as root | 21:11 |
| daskreecH | that would probably hepl your situation. As it stands you can set some KDE variables to make it stop doing all the buffering and so on | 21:11 |
| coz_ | via terminal | 21:11 |
| daskreecH | coz_: You really shouldn't but kdesudo dolphin | 21:11 |
| coz_ | ok let me try hold on | 21:11 |

| Mamarok | cjae: did you do an upgrade today? there have been package problems earlier, solved now | 21:13 |
| daskreecH | sparr: I don't remember what those variable names are :) But #kde would probably be able to tell you Qt can probably also be toned down | 21:14 |
| cjae | Mamarok: yes I was just trying again since I logged into another tty and it told me about updates Mamarok | 21:14 |
| cjae | brb | 21:14 |
| daskreecH | Most of the graphics work in Qt is heading toward more things being done on the videocard If you can't or don't want to you should turn on fallbacks to the old way of drawing on the CPU | 21:15 |

| diego__ | Hi! My cdrom doesn't show up in the file manager (dolphin). How can I make it appear? | 21:19 |
| umar | well its gaving me error cannot mount driver or unable to mount volime | 21:19 |
| Mamarok | cjae: the repo is fixed for the update, did you get any errors while updating now? | 21:21 |
| cjae | Mamarok: I still get black screen after kdm login, just a mouse | 21:23 |
| ToreadorVampire | Hmm, 4.2.4 is safe now right? | 21:23 |
| Mamarok | cjae: is this new in Jaunty or were you running something else before? | 21:24 |
| diego__ | Sorry if this is a stupid question. I would normally look it up throughly in the intertubes, but I'm in a bit of a hurry right now. Can anybody tell me please how to mount my cdrom in kde? | 21:24 |
| Mamarok | ToreadorVampire: so I have been told, yes | 21:24 |
| ToreadorVampire | Good news | 21:24 |
| ToreadorVampire | Well, I was going to try 4.2.3 this evening, but looks like it's gonna be 4.2.4 now | 21:24 |
| Mamarok | diego__: use the device notifier widget | 21:25 |
| daskreecH | diego__: sudo mount /dev/cdrom | 21:25 |
| cjae | Mamarok: my setup is one monitor dvi and tv out to plasma 1080p screen, twinview no xinerama, nvidia fx6200 properitary driver jaunty 9.04 kde 4.2.3 | 21:25 |
| cjae | Mamarok: with the latest updates... I saw the updates earlier today, but 47 of them were blcoked | 21:27 |
| cjae | blocked | 21:27 |
| Mamarok | cjae: are there still packages held back? | 21:27 |
| cjae | Mamarok: I thought it was a problem with kpackagekit, since it has had some issues, so I did a sudo apt-get dist-upgrade and now I have no wm | 21:28 |
| Mamarok | cjae: dist-upgrade? why? | 21:28 |
| cjae | Mamarok: no not that I know of | 21:28 |
| Mamarok | cjae: ina a regular release there is no need for dist-upgrade | 21:29 |
| Mamarok | you only do this when you change release | 21:29 |
| daskreecH | UNless you have ppas | 21:29 |
| daskreecH | or more generally third party repos | 21:29 |
| sparr | daskreecH: I ask all these same questions in #kde. they mostly blame it on kubuntu | 21:30 |
| Mamarok | daskreecH: he already was on Jaunty... | 21:30 |
| cjae | Mamarok: read it in the forum, used it in the 8.10 distro when had issues using the ppa for kde 4.2.0 | 21:30 |
| Mamarok | cjae: could you check your sources.list if there still is Jaunty everywhere? | 21:30 |
| cjae | Mamarok: ok | 21:30 |
| daskreecH | sparr: nice :) So they won't tell you what variables would change that? | 21:30 |
| * Mamarok uses aptitude save-upgrade | 21:30 | |
| daskreecH | Mamarok: yes but if he has a third party repo and it updates he gets notified and then might need a dist-upgrade depending on what htey are feeding | 21:31 |
| daskreecH | Assuming that cjae is a he | 21:31 |
| daskreecH | hi robertknight | 21:32 |
| sparr | daskreecH: you're the first person to reproduce the problem, mention triple buffering, or even hint that there might be a solution. half the answers ive gotten have amounted to "Qt4 is slower, get used to it" | 21:32 |
| cjae | Mamarok: yes all jaunty | 21:32 |
| daskreecH | sparr: so you got two answers then? | 21:33 |
| daskreecH | Mine and another? | 21:33 |
| robertknight | daskreecH: hello | 21:34 |
| daskreecH | sparr: I think that other people probably have it but it's a very very short period of time it's there and the more you use it the shorter it becmoes | 21:34 |
| Mamarok | cjae: then I don't know, and I'm not the best to answer things realted to more than one screen/xinerama | 21:34 |
| daskreecH | I think I can see it because I'm running on a live CD so I just booted up into a pristine environment and I have no buffer | 21:34 |
| Mamarok | related* even | 21:35 |
| sparr | daskreecH: ive been stuck using KDE 4 for over a year now, adn it never goes away | 21:35 |
| daskreecH | sparr: even now if I click on the calendar or the Kmenu I can't see it anymore unless I look | 21:35 |
| daskreecH | if I click on say the device notifier I see it again | 21:35 |
| cjae | Mamarok: so your saying there was issues with those packages earlier and that was likely why they were blocked | 21:35 |
| daskreecH | sparr: Right so we need to find out what is the bottleneck for your usecase and address it. | 21:36 |
| sparr | It *seems* like I don't see the delay when the content is static (cached?). But most widgets produce dynamic content every time you click them | 21:36 |
| daskreecH | Have you filed a bug gainst KDE ? | 21:36 |
| cjae | Mamarok: and I sort forced installed them and hosed the system | 21:36 |
| cjae | sort of* | 21:36 |
| daskreecH | sparr: Seems likely since it's pulling a buffered image | 21:36 |
| cjae | Mamarok: is there a way to revert? | 21:36 |
| daskreecH | If the buffered image isn't consistent with the object it's regenerated and then bufferd in the video card in RAM and the hard drive | 21:37 |
| sparr | daskreecH: I've spent a year trying to find a single other person who can reproduce the issue, filing a bug report before now would have been pointless | 21:37 |
| Mamarok | cjae: ok, so you did force those when there were vlocked? | 21:37 |
| Mamarok | blocked* | 21:37 |
| daskreecH | sparr: Well you say it takes several seconds which is unusual | 21:37 |
| Mamarok | cjae: which means you have a bunch of non working packages... | 21:38 |
| daskreecH | I recall someone who worked on plasma I think saw someone with a Terminal Server run KDE4 and said across a network it's a very different effect so I think it might be known but just no one has enough info to attack it | 21:38 |
| cjae | Mamarok: well no, I am not sure, kpackagekit told me that they were blocked, but used to say that with flash non free too | 21:38 |
| daskreecH | sparr: Want to pop over to #plasma ad see what they say? | 21:38 |
| Mamarok | cjae: revert no, but reinstall those packages might solve the problem | 21:38 |
| cjae | Mamarok: ok but I just installed a little while ago | 21:39 |
| cjae | Mamarok: the broken packages that is | 21:39 |
| Mamarok | cjae: cjae you can see which packages you have to reinstall in the PPA repo | 21:40 |
| cjae | ok | 21:40 |
| cjae | Mamarok: are you familiar with the issues in getting kde 4.2.- on 8.10 with the ppa repo then | 21:41 |
| Mamarok | cjae: you will have to reinstall all those you forced earlier | 21:41 |
| Mamarok | cjae: yes, I did run Intrepid for quite some time with KDE 4.2.2 | 21:41 |
| cjae | Mamarok: and until they made it in the adept where you check the box to install kde 4.2 the ppa broke a lot of thing too | 21:42 |
| cjae | Mamarok: I found a page then, that said something about rebuilding the kde window manager and that worked for me then | 21:43 |
| Mamarok | cjae: well, that depends on the packages you have installed on your system, I might have been lucky so far, but I'm also used to reinstall systems a lot :) | 21:44 |
| cjae | Mamarok: but I cannot remember the command now | 21:44 |
| Mamarok | especially when running alpha releases, but never with beta so far | 21:44 |
| Mamarok | cjae: having /home on a separate partition is usually quite useful | 21:44 |
| cjae | sudo apt-get kdewindowmanger install --reinstall or something | 21:44 |
| cjae | Mamarok: yes thats how I do it too | 21:45 |
| Mamarok | cjae: last idea: did you try moving your ~/.kde/ to .kde_old/ and restart kdm? | 21:45 |
| sparr | daskreecH: can't hurt to try | 21:45 |
| cjae | #/home and then deleted all ~/. files and reinstall Mamarok | 21:46 |
| Mamarok | cjae: ? | 21:47 |
| cjae | Mamarok: no but I will, what is a ncurses or cli web browser? lynx | 21:47 |
| cjae | Mamarok: I was agreeing with you separate partition theory | 21:47 |
| Mamarok | cjae: I mean just mv ~/.kde/ ~.kde_old/ in your home folder | 21:47 |
| Mamarok | cjae: did you try that? | 21:48 |
| iivv | what are 'blocked updates'? | 21:48 |
| Mamarok | iivv: those are packages with wrong dependencies | 21:48 |
| Mamarok | iivv: you have that now? | 21:48 |
| cjae | Mamarok: I know, but you said about having to reinstall sometimes, no I havent tried to make kde rebuild .kde yet | 21:48 |
| iivv | mamarok: i have about 31 blocked updates | 21:48 |
| Mamarok | cjae: try it, worth a try before foring a reinstall on n packages | 21:49 |
| cjae | Mamarok: cli browser? | 21:49 |
| Mamarok | iivv: now or did you try an upgrade arlier? | 21:49 |
| Mamarok | cjae: in a terminal | 21:49 |
| cjae | Mamarok: sorry web browser | 21:49 |
| Mamarok | iivv: upgrade from what to what? | 21:50 |
| iivv | mamarok: when kde told me i had updates about an hour or so ago | 21:50 |
| Mamarok | cjae: yes, lynx, but there should be newer ones | 21:50 |
| cjae | links | 21:50 |
| cjae | ? | 21:50 |
| cjae | those are the only two I know and I think one is no availiable for ubuntu | 21:51 |
| Mamarok | cjae: there also is links and W3m | 21:52 |
| Mamarok | iivv: what version are you talking about? | 21:53 |
| greg___ | Hello all, I have a DEL XPS210 Mem=1gig CPU Dual D'S 2.8GHz Running Kubuntu KDE4.2.2 Problem,, Everytime I run Firefox my system CPU goes to 100% both of them system locks and after about 2 minutes it frees up. Used HTOP to view processes. Any body have this problem or a variation of it?? Any solutions?? BTY Seamonkey runs great, but I like the features of FF. | 21:53 |
| iivv | mamarok: i'm running jaunty... | 21:53 |
| Mamarok | iivv: and which version of KDE4? would be nice to have the full picture :) | 21:54 |
| iivv | i think i'm running 4.2.3 | 21:54 |
| Mamarok | greg___: could be one of the plugins, try removing one after the other to find out which it is | 21:54 |
| Mamarok | iivv: that's something to be sure about, no? | 21:55 |
| Mamarok | iivv: did you do it in kpackagekit or in the command line? | 21:55 |
| iivv | kpackagekit. kwin -- version says kde v4.2.4... | 21:56 |
| greg___ | Mamarok THanx for quick response, I tried that, shoud have told you in the message sorry about that, any other ideas? | 21:56 |
| Mamarok | iivv: please go to a command line and run sudo apt-get update | 21:56 |
| Mamarok | greg___: well, flash is the most likely culprit | 21:57 |
| iivv | ok | 21:57 |
| Mamarok | iivv: then run sudo apt-get upgrade and tell me if there still are errors | 21:58 |
| greg___ | If it is , should a user abandon the flash feature?? One problem begets another Thanx Manarok | 21:59 |
| cjae | and one know how to press the back button in w3m | 22:00 |
| Mamarok | greg___: I use Opera 10 beta for flash, usually can handle it much better than firefox, but that is not an official or supported recommendation :) | 22:01 |
| Mamarok | greg___: also, youtube runs fine in konqueror too :) | 22:02 |

| ign0ramus | ghostsan, the flash plugin, like to view youtube and such? | 22:31 |
| ghostsan | yes | 22:31 |
| ign0ramus | ghostsan, where did you download it from? | 22:31 |
| ghostsan | the add/remove programs package | 22:32 |
| ign0ramus | ghostsan, then it should be installed and ready to use... restart firefox and see if you can view a video | 22:32 |
| ghostsan | i want to record the video | 22:32 |
| ign0ramus | ghostsan, that has nothing to do with the flash plugin | 22:32 |
| ign0ramus | ghostsan, do you want to record your screen? | 22:33 |
| ghostsan | i want to record the videos on flash player | 22:33 |
| kaddi | hello :) | 22:34 |
| ign0ramus | ghostsan, ok, Flash Player is just that ... a "Player". You can't record using Flash Player. Do you want to record your screen? | 22:34 |
| ign0ramus | hey kaddi :) | 22:34 |
| ghostsan | oh | 22:34 |
| ghostsan | then yes | 22:34 |
| noren | is there any stock ticker applet available | 22:35 |
| ign0ramus | ghostsan, or you may want to look into Download Helper firefox add-on, which can save and convert many Flash videos | 22:35 |
| ign0ramus | ghostsan, to record your screen, get "krecordmydesktop" | 22:35 |
| ghostsan | k thanks | 22:35 |
| ign0ramus | ghostsan, np. Download Helper is a cool and easy add-on... if you just want to save like Youtube videos, that's probably your best bet | 22:36 |
| ghostsan | is sucks to be ignorants :P | 22:36 |

| Cargo-Loader | Does anyone know how I can connect to a hidden WPA2 Network? Kubuntu 9.04 , wpa2, hidden, network not brodcasting (I have to connect to the network to get a connection. Seems logic.)? | 23:17 |
| compusec | aww u guys next time | 23:17 |
| Cargo-Loader | Someone here who can help me? | 23:19 |
| mattfletcher | my brother has kubuntu 8.04 and wants to upgrade to 9.04. He's found the instructions at: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/JauntyUpgrades/Kubuntu/8.04 and followed them but it is not offering him a "Version Upgrade" button when he hits "Fatch Updates". I'm on GNOME so can't really help him. Any ideas? | 23:20 |
| LadyNikon | Cargo-Loader: ask what you need. | 23:20 |
| LadyNikon | people cant help you.. if you havent asked the question | 23:20 |

| Cargo-Loader | I already have ;) | 23:20 |

| Cargo-Loader | Oh and. Wlan dongle is fritz avm stick (the one with the selfinstall thing...) | 23:21 |
| Ph3nix_ | ok go apt-get autoremove k*; apt-get install gnome* | 23:22 |
| Cargo-Loader | No I won't, Ph3nix_ . I just wan't wpa2 on Kubuntu. | 23:22 |
| Ph3nix_ | Driver Ralink? | 23:23 |
| Ph3nix_ | write on console lshw -C network | 23:23 |
| Ph3nix_ | what is your card | 23:24 |
| === zero is now known as Guest2296 | ||
| Cargo-Loader | It's an avm card. but it doesn't say what one | 23:25 |
| mattfletcher | what command can i use to update kubuntu 8.04 to 9.04 on the command line? | 23:27 |
| Cargo-Loader | sudo apt-get upgrade? I think it was that one... | 23:27 |
| mattfletcher | i know about sudo apt-get dist-upgrade but i heard that it wasn't the best way. there is do-release-upgrade for ubuntu, but do not know if kubuntu has this | 23:28 |
| * Eurysilas is having trouble with KDEInit...... | 23:30 | |
| Eurysilas | I'm on Hardy Heron, and all was going well. Then I tried to click on a text file and Kate wouldn't open, because KDEInit couldn't open it. | 23:32 |
| Eurysilas | Even more bizzarly, the menu entry under KMenu doesn't work either. | 23:33 |
| Eurysilas | Oh, and perhapse the oddest of all- it launches from the terminal just fine. | 23:33 |
| Eurysilas | Oh, wait.....It launches from the menu fine, now..... | 23:35 |
| diggdag | green mirc user.. Have any a solution to use ATI 9.3 on 9.04 with xserve 1.6 | 23:36 |
| === yml_ is now known as yml | ||
| Eurysilas | Ok....it seems that it is a permissions error, somewhere. It all works fine without launching kfind as root. | 23:39 |
| diggdag | any using an "old" ati card with kubuntu? | 23:39 |
| sparr | Closing the Network Management plasmoid disconnects all managed network interfaces. Is that by design? | 23:41 |
| _nix_ | How do you play a movie with subtitles in Dragon Player? | 23:41 |
| access_d | diggdag: I have an Xpress 200m in this laptop, and just newly installed kubuntu. So yeah, I'm going through the same thing. Looks like there's a couple things in the works, but nothing good enough for me to try yet. I do get 3d rendering, though it's only ~330fps when it's usually at least 4x that. | 23:42 |
| access_d | Hopefully the open source drivers will just be improved so we don't have to rely on ATI anymore. | 23:43 |
| access_d | Well, we can't really rely on ATI anymore, since they ditched support for our cards. lol | 23:43 |
| diggdag | ok it seems like i must use the 8.10 version then | 23:43 |
| access_d | That's your best bet if you want to keep the proprietary drivers. | 23:44 |
| access_d | 8.04 is even the LTS, so support will be longer. | 23:44 |
| access_d | (that is, if they don't come up with something by then) | 23:44 |
| diggdag | not big in demands, want to run runescape in high modus | 23:45 |
| diggdag | its a java client | 23:45 |
| _nix_ | nvm.. Bug #360426 on launchpad: dragon player unable to load external subtitles. | 23:48 |
| Riddell | amarok rock http://www.kubuntu.org/news/amarok-2.1 | 23:48 |
| * _nix_ is sad. | 23:48 | |
| _nix_ | hi Ridell | 23:48 |
| access_d | Right on. But yeah, your best bet (so far) is using Hardy or Intrepid. Or really anything that uses xorg-server 1.5.2 or earlier (I think) | 23:49 |
| diggdag | ok can i seek in a distro place for xorg-server 1.5.2 ? and find a good distro ? | 23:50 |
| access_d | There's nothing wrong with 8.04 (Hardy) or 8.10 (Intrepid). | 23:52 |
| diggdag | ok i try the intreprid then and thanks all for helping me | 23:53 |
| diggdag | quit | 23:54 |
| sidewinder2 | Hey, i am trying to set up dual monitors in Kubuntu, but under my system display settings it recognizes both monitors as a single one, any suggestions? | 23:57 |
