|---|---|---|
| SuspectZero | how can i remove kde | 00:03 |
| Dragnslcr | !puregnome | 00:03 |
| ubottu | If you want to remove all !KDE packages, type « sudo apt-get remove kdelibs4c2 kdelibs5-data && sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop » into a !terminal | 00:03 |
| SuspectZero | on 8.10 | 00:03 |
| SuspectZero | ah kk | 00:03 |
| SuspectZero | ty | 00:03 |
| SuspectZero | this command works on kde3.5? | 00:04 |
| === Guest39034 is now known as bulletxt_quassel | ||
| EagleScreen | in 3.5 replace kdelibs5 per kdelibs4 | 00:05 |
| EagleScreen | if you remove libqt3-mt you will remove all KDE3 applications also | 00:06 |
| SuspectZero | see the thing is im not on kubuntu | 00:07 |
| SuspectZero | i just figured this would be the best place to ask for this considering the kubuntu users use kde | 00:07 |
| drbobb | It seems that the sis900 driver was written either by, or with the aid of, ppl from sis - and it still doesn't work correctly | 00:07 |
| EagleScreen | SuspectZero: which distro? | 00:07 |
| SuspectZero | backtrack 4 | 00:07 |
| EagleScreen | is backtrack4 based on Debian? | 00:08 |
| SuspectZero | yep | 00:08 |
| SuspectZero | based of ubuntu to be specific | 00:08 |
| SuspectZero | but it has kde3.5 installed | 00:08 |
| EagleScreen | then this steps are valid | 00:08 |
| SuspectZero | right but apt is saying that those packages are not installed | 00:09 |
| SuspectZero | thus they are not removed | 00:09 |

| rmrfslash | sharif: you can't. ATI can though. | 00:51 |
| rmrfslash | sharif: The problem is that my computer does not wake up from suspend-to-ram with opengl compositing enabled. | 00:52 |
| rmrfslash | sharif: rather, it wakes up to a mostly black screen with specks of color here and there (mostly around where a panel might be) and the machine is hung. Can't switch to a virtual console or do anything but power it off forcefully. Sometimes I can move the mouse around though. | 00:53 |
| rmrfslash | sarif: I filed a bug w/ ATI and Kubuntu (launchpad). Someone was in contact w/ me from the fglrx development team and asked me to install some ppa of fglrx but it didn't work. He just said "darn" and I never heard from him again. Probbaly installed a rootkit. | 00:54 |

| GSF1200S | anyone in here know when KDE 4 intends to add dual head support? Im using gnome because of this... | 03:44 |
| Serpardum | dual heads? On a hard drive? I would imagine a hard drive bios would emulate 1 head for older systems. | 03:46 |
| JontheEchidna | dual monitors | 03:46 |
| Serpardum | ahhh | 03:46 |
| JontheEchidna | currently it supports things like xinerama fairly well, but support for two separate X servers is probably not coming until 4.4 | 03:46 |
| JontheEchidna | http://aseigo.blogspot.com/2009/07/multihead.html | 03:47 |
| GSF1200S | Thank you JontheEchidna | 03:59 |
| jnewt | my "package install" window keeps freezing when downloading package files, for minutes now it is stuck at 99%. should i let it keep going, or close out and manually add sources for apt to sources.list | 04:16 |
| GSF1200S | jnewt- using adept? | 04:21 |
| GSF1200S | i would force close it | 04:21 |
| GSF1200S | then remove the lock file and manually add, but thats me | 04:22 |
| GSF1200S | adept sucks | 04:22 |
| jnewt | yeah, closed it, added via sources.list, apt-get update, and good to go, that gui thing is crap. | 04:22 |
| GSF1200S | use synaptic- just sucks because of all the deps | 04:22 |
| jnewt | whats wrong with apt? | 04:22 |
| GSF1200S | jnewt.. yeah | 04:24 |
| jnewt | is there a way to apt-cache search and show the repo it's reading from? | 04:25 |
| beyondcr | ok i just switched to kde i have a few questions.... | 04:25 |
| jnewt | or limit the search | 04:25 |
| beyondcr | is there a easy way to get firefox??? | 04:26 |
| Dragnslcr | beyondcr- you can install it from KPackageKit | 04:26 |
| beyondcr | ok | 04:26 |
| beyondcr | that leads to my second question | 04:26 |
| Dragnslcr | beyondcr- the package "firefox" is 3.0. There's also a firefox-3.5 package | 04:26 |
| beyondcr | is there a way to view by catogorys in kpakagekit | 04:27 |
| Dragnslcr | I don't think so | 04:27 |
| Dragnslcr | You can search by name or description though | 04:28 |
| beyondcr | im use to the snytopages in gnome so kde has nothing like that no? | 04:28 |
| beyondcr | ok well i type "fire fox" "firefox" and "browser" and nothing came up | 04:29 |
| Dragnslcr | Adept used to have a category view. Dunno if it'll get implemented in KPackageKit or not | 04:29 |
| jnewt | apt-cache search firefox | 04:29 |
| Dragnslcr | Check your sources list. It's definitely there | 04:29 |
| Dragnslcr | Sorry, KPackageKit does have a category select list | 04:31 |
| Dragnslcr | Far right of the search row, default is "All Packages" | 04:31 |
| beyondcr | ok it keeps crashing every time i hit reload in the settings | 04:31 |
| Dragnslcr | What's the exact text of the button? | 04:32 |
| beyondcr | 1 sec im going to do it once more | 04:32 |
| Dragnslcr | The only button in KPackageKit's settings is "Edit Software Sources" | 04:33 |
| beyondcr | yes | 04:34 |
| beyondcr | i clicked all on | 04:34 |
| beyondcr | but the unsupported | 04:34 |
| beyondcr | still cant find firefox | 04:34 |
| Dragnslcr | Go to Software Updates and click Refresh | 04:35 |
| beyondcr | i type it in the search and hit enter it dose a search then nothing comes up | 04:35 |
| beyondcr | ok | 04:35 |
| beyondcr | i did that | 04:35 |
| Dragnslcr | Check the filters, maybe you have one turned on, like only show installed packages | 04:36 |
| beyondcr | and got | 04:36 |
| beyondcr | Cannot get the exclusive lock on the packaging backend. | 04:36 |
| beyondcr | Please close any other legacy packaging tools that may be open. | 04:36 |
| FloodBotK2 | beyondcr: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 04:36 |
| beyondcr | Cannot get the exclusive lock on the packaging backend. | 04:36 |
| beyondcr | Please close any other legacy packaging tools that may be open. | 04:36 |
| beyondcr | ctrl v is a bit touchy | 04:36 |
| Dragnslcr | Make sure you don't have anything else running | 04:36 |
| Dragnslcr | e.g. aptitude or synaptic | 04:36 |
| Dragnslcr | If you don't, do this | 04:37 |
| Dragnslcr | !aptfix | 04:37 |
| Dragnslcr | Er | 04:37 |
| Dragnslcr | Do what the bot says, when it finally wakes up | 04:37 |
| beyondcr | is synaptic man in kde | 04:37 |
| ubottu | If an APT front-end crashed and your database is locked, try this in a !terminal: « sudo fuser -vki /var/lib/dpkg/lock;sudo dpkg --configure -a » | 04:37 |
| Dragnslcr | There we go | 04:38 |
| beyondcr | ok why is this not apart of the program | 04:39 |
| beyondcr | so if did not know to come here to ask questions or go to google and find the answer i would have never knew of this it should be done auto | 04:40 |
| beyondcr | ok | 04:41 |
| beyondcr | user error thanks alot dragnslcr | 04:41 |
| beyondcr | there was a really small gesture box open that was causing it to crash like that | 04:41 |
| Dragnslcr | You mean fixing apt if the database gets locked? In theory, it should never happen | 04:41 |
| beyondcr | ok | 04:42 |
| beyondcr | but if it ever did | 04:42 |
| Dragnslcr | You come here and ask the bot | 04:42 |
| beyondcr | it had to of happened to some one before if some one programed it into the bot | 04:42 |
| Dragnslcr | Dunno if rebooting releases the lock | 04:42 |
| Dragnslcr | Yeah, it happens often enough to have a factoid, but I don't think it happens to most users | 04:43 |
| beyondcr | but any ways thanks alot there was a ok box open in the background | 04:43 |
| Dragnslcr | Heh, it's always the simple stuff | 04:44 |
| beyondcr | yhea i was like man it looks so much better then gnome but where the heck is everything at i was getting fustrated... | 04:44 |
| Dragnslcr | Yeah, sometimes it takes a little while to find stuff in a new environment | 04:45 |
| beyondcr | i think i like it already | 04:49 |
| beyondcr | ok now i typed firefox in and got about 20 difrent pakage | 04:57 |
| beyondcr | ok | 05:00 |
| beyondcr | whats a good torrent program | 05:00 |

| SealV | its strange because rhytmbox can see it fine | 05:03 |
| Dragnslcr | !info ktorrent | 05:04 |
| ubottu | ktorrent (source: ktorrent): BitTorrent client based on the KDE 4 technology platform. In component main, is optional. Version 3.2.1+dfsg.1-0ubuntu3 (jaunty), package size 1612 kB, installed size 4500 kB | 05:04 |
| Dragnslcr | Hm, thought it was installed by default | 05:04 |
| beyondcr | is there a way i can turn off the requirment of a password everytime i make a change to the system | 05:04 |
| beyondcr | no | 05:04 |
| Dragnslcr | Probably, but I'd suggest against it | 05:04 |
| beyondcr | i typed ktorrent in the search and nothing came up | 05:04 |
| beyondcr | but i found it in kpac | 05:05 |
| beyondcr | ok ill leave it on untill it makes me mad | 05:05 |
| SealV | it is reeeeallly strange. amarok --debug is showing that it can see my daap, but the gui isn't showing anything | 05:05 |
| leaf-sheep | SealV: I googled. Try install nss-mdns | 05:06 |
| dsmith_ | would anything happen badly if I clear out /tmp? | 05:07 |
| leaf-sheep | dsmith_: No. /tmp is for temporary files. Nothing important are stored there. | 05:08 |

| SealV | <leaf-sheep> its installed | 05:10 |

| leaf-sheep | SealV: I'm googling too. You using Privoxy? Na...? | 05:15 |
| Dragnslcr | tomdavidson- dunno why those packages would be kept back, but apt-get dist-upgrade should get whatever new dependencies are needed and upgrade them | 05:16 |
| Dragnslcr | tomdavidson- did you add a new repository or something? | 05:16 |
| tomdavidson | even if im not upgrading a distro? i will give it a go. i added the kubuntu backports when 4.3rc1 was available, but doesnt seem i get some of the updates out of it | 05:18 |
| Dragnslcr | Ah, yeah, something might have broken in the middle of the upgrade | 05:18 |
| Dragnslcr | dist-upgrade should fix it | 05:18 |
| beyondcr_ | how do you add a shortcut to the desktop folder widget | 05:19 |
| tomdavidson | dragnslcr: sorry i wasnt clear... the up to 4.3rc1 worked fine... it is updates since then that are being held back. dist-upgrade is waht i needed. thank you very much | 05:20 |
| tomdavidson | beyondcr_ right click, new ? | 05:20 |
| beyondcr_ | ty | 05:21 |
| SealV | <leaf-sheep>: nothing like that no, sorry for the delay in response | 05:21 |
| leaf-sheep | Why isn't Amarok 2's DAAP working? Anybody here know the reason? | 05:22 |
| linuxguy2009 | Hello everyone I have been using Ubuntu for almost a year now and I am just now ready to give KDE a good learning. I just installed the Kubuntu meta package from the repos and I have to say WOW. It looks much different than what i remeber. Looks really nice. | 05:23 |
| linuxguy2009 | How do I determine what version of KDE I am using? | 05:23 |
| SealV | <leaf-sheep> what is frustrating is this gimme a second I will dump amarok --debug | 05:24 |
| leaf-sheep | SealV: I don't use KDE myself. Been experimenting with it. | 05:25 |
| SealV | <leaf-sheep> me too although in my case its more like a bad drug habit | 05:25 |
| leaf-sheep | I know KDE is porting all of their applications to QT4. | 05:26 |
| linuxguy2009 | Is this plasma(sp?) stuff like compiz for gnome? | 05:26 |
| SealV | except on crack | 05:26 |
| SealV | plasma also does your panels and widgets | 05:27 |
| linuxguy2009 | hehe | 05:27 |
| linuxguy2009 | cool | 05:27 |
| linuxguy2009 | The GUI graphics are smooth. | 05:27 |
| SealV | http://pastebin.com/m2f124ade | 05:28 |
| SealV | thats the output of amarok --debug | 05:28 |
| djmimmo | list | 05:28 |
| SealV | of particular frustrating interesting line 7-14 | 05:29 |
| linuxguy2009 | Guys if I decide to use KDE along with Gnome and want to keep there apps seperate, can i just download the live CD of Kubuntu and will it see the Ubuntu install and just install right beside it? | 05:29 |
| SealV | you dont even have to do that, provided that you have a net collection just do sude apt-get install kde | 05:30 |
| SealV | *sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop | 05:31 |
| SealV | this will install kde and all its apps, you can use both kde and gnome in harmony | 05:31 |
| linuxguy2009 | SealV: Yeah i totally did that. Thats how Im using KDE right now. I would just rather keep the apps seperate maybe thats why I ask | 05:32 |
| linuxguy2009 | or maybe it aint that much of a biggy. | 05:32 |
| linuxguy2009 | Where can I see what version of KDE im running? | 05:32 |
| linuxguy2009 | NM I found it. | 05:34 |
| SealV | to clean up/keep them seperate.. you have to manually clean up each ones menus | 05:34 |
| SealV | delete gnome entries from klauncher and viceversa | 05:35 |
| linuxguy2009 | SealV: Could I simply install them in seperate partitions like I was saying? I mean I know about partitioning and all that. | 05:35 |
| linuxguy2009 | NM Ill have to look for help in another room. Thanks. | 05:37 |

| bazhang | !find purisa | 14:08 |
| ubottu | File purisa found in thailatex | 14:08 |
| bazhang | TheSilentWarrior, seems to be in thailatex package | 14:09 |
| TheSilentWarrior | bazhang, not sure where it is :/ | 14:10 |
| alutza | sorry to bother, very short thing i wanna ask | 14:10 |
| bazhang | TheSilentWarrior, packages.ubuntu.com | 14:10 |
| TheSilentWarrior | but dont have access to a ubuntu box right now | 14:10 |
| alutza | i have ubuntu 8.04 but with kubuntu and xubuntu-desktop | 14:10 |
| alutza | im in kubuntu right now, and i'm upgrating the distro | 14:10 |
| alutza | will ubuntu and xubuntu be upgraded too? | 14:10 |
| TheSilentWarrior | bazhang, all i find is .deb packages, know where i can find the .ttf file for it? | 14:12 |
| alutza | anyone? | 14:12 |
| TheSilentWarrior | alutza, i beleave so, because they all use the same core | 14:13 |
| bazhang | TheSilentWarrior, if it is proprietary font (MS for example) then no idea | 14:13 |
| alutza | thanks thesilentwarrior | 14:14 |
| TheSilentWarrior | bazhang, purisa.ttf is found on ubuntu distros, it looks like hand writing. I want it so i can program with a bit more pleasure on this windows box, its not windows-to-ubuntu, but ubuntu-to-windows. Hate that windows doesnt have it tho | 14:16 |
| bazhang | TheSilentWarrior, apt-cache search purisa returns nothing, so it seems to exist only in thailatex. sorry not to help you out | 14:17 |

| rmrfslash | I think I might be having a problem with my laptop hardware. It seems like something is overheating because for a while I couldn't even boot the thing. It would say PXE ROM No media device found. Check cable. | 14:31 |
| rmrfslash | I waited a while, then I was able to boot into Kubuntu. So now that I'm on the machine, I want to monitor the hardware temperature. | 14:31 |
| rmrfslash | I found the temperature monitor plasmoid which is revealing 3 monitors.... but there's no indication about what they are. Doesn't seem like something is "overheating" | 14:32 |
| rmrfslash | everything is hovering around 50 C | 14:32 |
| rmrfslash | Right before the machine began having these issues, I noticed it was locking up. Then, I said "ok, go to virtual console and reboot" so I did this but it was giving me d-bus errors | 14:34 |
| jimmy_ | hey guys, in ubuntu to move between worspaces I hold crl+alt and then use the arrow keys, I can hold shift to take the focused window between desktops - how do i do that on KDE? | 14:34 |
| jimmy_ | i can't find any way of easily switching workspaces without using the F keys | 14:34 |
| Daviey | 09:51:51 -!- mode/#uupc [+o schwuk] by ChanServ | 14:34 |
| phh | jimmy_: ctrl-fX by default | 14:34 |
| phh | oh. | 14:34 |
| phh | jimmy_: set it in systemsettings i think there is none by default | 14:35 |
| rmrfslash | I had to forcefully shut it down, which I did. Then when I booted it back up it was saying Broadcom .... PXE ROM ... no media device found ... check cable. Maybe someone can eliminate what was/is going awry. | 14:35 |
| jimmy_ | phh: I don't want to have to specify the workspace - ideally i want to just use arrows to slide between my desktops | 14:35 |
| === testman is now known as testman_ | ||
| phh | that seems really weird to me... but anyway the answer is in systemsettings. | 14:35 |
| rmrfslash | jimmy_i: you can set what keys you want to use to switch between virtual desktops. | 14:35 |
| jimmy_ | system settings then what? | 14:36 |
| jimmy_ | phh my reason is i don't like reaching up to the F keys especially not in a key combo | 14:36 |
| jimmy_ | i prefer to keep my hands in the typing position and moving between workspaces | 14:36 |
| phh | hu ? your hands are on arrows in typing position ? | 14:36 |
| phh | that's really weird | 14:36 |
| rmrfslash | jimmy_: go to system settings > Keyboad and Mouse > and look around "Standard" and "GLobal" Keyboard Shortcuts | 14:37 |
| rmrfslash | So anyways... who wants to field my question. anyone? | 14:39 |
| jimmy_ | phh: of course they aren't but its way easier to move there than left hand on CRL and then reach for an F key | 14:42 |
| phh | not on my keyboard | 14:43 |
| jimmy_ | okay i've got crl+alt+arrow to move workspace and crl+shift+alt+arrow to take active window | 14:43 |
| jimmy_ | it works - not as nice effect as gnome - but it'll do! | 14:43 |

| epimeth | can I get some help reducing mouse sensitivity? | 15:34 |
| epimeth | if possible, just for external mice, not the touchpad... | 15:34 |
| TheData | epimeth: you can control that in the kde system settings center | 15:34 |
| epimeth | TheData: I only saw acceleration there, not sensitivity.... | 15:35 |
| TheData | hmmmm ... ok... | 15:35 |
| TheData | right.. | 15:36 |
| tuanpham | hi all | 15:36 |
| TheData | hi | 15:36 |
| epimeth | hi tuanpham | 15:36 |
| tuanpham | i have a trouble with my keyboard on kde 4.3rc1 | 15:36 |
| tuanpham | i have a trouble with my keyboard on kde 4.3rc2 | 15:36 |
| tuanpham | i can not type anything :( | 15:36 |
| tuanpham | does anyone have the same problem ? | 15:36 |
| epimeth | TheData: so I did some googling and it seems like it can only be done through xorg in the "mouse" section, but i don't have one... plus I'd rather not change the sensitivity of the touchpad, just the usb mouse :-) | 15:37 |
| TheData | tuanpham: that's strange... I guess it is hardware failiure... Have you test it with a knoppix live cd? | 15:37 |
| TheData | tuanpham: or an other os? | 15:37 |
| tuanpham | i have no cd :( | 15:37 |
| TheData | tuanpham: netbook? | 15:38 |
| epimeth | tuanpham: I'm surprised.... are you sure the keyboard isn't broken? | 15:38 |
| tuanpham | i update the kde 4.3rc1 in internet | 15:38 |
| tuanpham | i use both gnom and kde new | 15:38 |
| TheData | yes i'am working with the latest kde 4.3 too... no problems there | 15:38 |
| epimeth | oh... wow... it stopped working after an update? | 15:38 |
| tuanpham | :( it very stranger | 15:38 |
| tuanpham | yep ! | 15:38 |
| tuanpham | when i change back to gnom it is ok | 15:39 |
| epimeth | have you tried plugging in an external keyboard? | 15:39 |
| nelly | hey I'm trying to enable my graphics driver, so I go to "Hardware Drivers", I select the driver, click "Activate", but nothing happends....what is going on? | 15:39 |
| epimeth | oh... its *just* kde??? | 15:39 |
| TheData | hmm... probaply it is the xserver.... | 15:39 |
| tuanpham | yep | 15:39 |
| tuanpham | i remmeber that fist time i login | 15:39 |
| TheData | nelly: try: jockey-gtk | 15:39 |
| tuanpham | it has a small gadget name keyboard shortcut | 15:39 |
| tuanpham | it tiny in my desk | 15:40 |
| tuanpham | so i closed it | 15:40 |
| tuanpham | then it is happend | 15:40 |
| tuanpham | now i can not do anything with my keboard | 15:41 |
| tuanpham | i have no extended keyboard to try | 15:41 |
| TheData | tuanpham: ok..... that's strange... I would suggest: Look into the xorg.conf and reinstall your xserver-xorg package | 15:41 |
| tuanpham | laptop | 15:41 |
| tuanpham | how comes TheData | 15:41 |
| TheData | tuanpham: what do you mean? | 15:41 |
| tuanpham | where xorg.conf | 15:41 |
| TheData | tuanpham: ahh ok.. it is in /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 15:42 |
| beyondcr | ok i had a problem last night that stoped me from using ubuntu several times... i ran envyng to install video drivers and i guess it crashed apon install... anyways i was left with a system that video crashed right befor the desktop came up the only way i could fix it was to reinstall.... is there a way to fix this problem if i ever encounter it agin? | 15:42 |
| nelly | TheData: thx...that seemed to work...now the "Downloading" dialog appears, but it doesn't seem to start downloading..its stuck at 0% | 15:43 |
| epimeth | beyondcr: yea, before you run *anything* you backup your xorg.conf file. then, if anything fails, you can replace it with the old xorg | 15:43 |
| tuanpham | does it include the keyboard selection TheData ? | 15:43 |
| tuanpham | i see no infomation about the keboard here | 15:44 |
| TheData | tuanpham: if nothing helps you can restart the pc and go into login screen of kde and selest terminal session. Try if the keyboard works int the terminal. | 15:44 |
| TheData | tuanpham: What do you mean with "does it include the keyboard selection TheData ?" | 15:44 |
| epimeth | beyondcr: so instead of going in through one of the window managers (KDE / gnome/ whathaveyou) you can hit ctrl+f1 and log in through the command line | 15:44 |
| tuanpham | ok i am trying | 15:44 |
| TheData | tuanpham: stop | 15:45 |
| TheData | tuanpham: a moment | 15:45 |
| TheData | tuanpham: are you still here? | 15:45 |
| beyondcr | ok thanks alot | 15:45 |
| epimeth | beyondcr: lol... or what TheData just told tuanpham about selecting "terminal session" | 15:45 |
| nelly | TheData: can I just download the driver I need through the console (or something), since it wouldn't work through the "Hardware Drivers"? | 15:46 |
| epimeth | beyondcr: then you can replace the broken xorg with the backed up one | 15:46 |
| epimeth | beyondcr: no worries :-) | 15:46 |
| TheData | nelly: yes you can you just have to pick the right one | 15:47 |
| epimeth | nelly: yea but you have to change your xorg.conf, too... are you *sure* nothing is happening? maybe it worked and you just have to restart X now? | 15:47 |
| nelly | TheData: actually...i just now clicked "activate" once more, and seemeted to have gone through with the download | 15:47 |
| nelly | :) | 15:47 |
| nelly | look like I have to restart now...however | 15:47 |
| nelly | thx | 15:47 |
| epimeth | nelly: not restart | 15:47 |
| epimeth | just restart X | 15:47 |
| TheData | you are welcome | 15:48 |
| nelly | oh.. | 15:48 |
| nelly | how do you restart just x? | 15:48 |
| TheData | nelly: Press Alt+ Druck+k | 15:48 |
| TheData | nelly: Press Alt+Print+k | 15:48 |
| TheData | nelly: Print is the Print Screen key | 15:49 |
| epimeth | TheData: really? I thought it was ctrl+alt+backspace | 15:49 |
| TheData | epimeth: notz any more... | 15:50 |
| wsales | hi all | 15:50 |
| TheData | epimeth: backspace was deactivated... | 15:50 |
| epimeth | heh... good to know :-) | 15:50 |
| epimeth | so now its alt+print+k? Thats silly | 15:50 |
| epimeth | wsales: hi | 15:51 |
| phh | hu non | 15:51 |
| phh | -n | 15:51 |
| TheData | epimeth: yes... The Backspace you could remember better... but... now it is deacticated in ubuntu | 15:51 |
| wsales | someone here knows a problem when receives random double-click mouses instead a single-click? | 15:51 |
| phh | alt+print+k is a way to kill X, but it's more likely you'll kill many other things at the same time .... | 15:51 |
| phh | (it will kill everything reading the keyboard) | 15:51 |
| wsales | i do a single click and in a lot of times I got a double click.... | 15:51 |
| wsales | i changed my mouse, mouse buttons... i'm on 9.04 | 15:52 |
| phh | TheData: they haven't used the double ctrl+alt+backspace patch yet ? | 15:52 |
| TheData | phh: It kills the xserver. Do you know an othetr way? | 15:52 |
| tuanpham | ic :( | 15:52 |
| tuanpham | with safe teminal | 15:52 |
| tuanpham | my keyboard is work | 15:52 |
| epimeth | TheData: yea... log out, then in KDM menu click on "restart X" :-) | 15:52 |
| tuanpham | only kubuntu-desktop :( | 15:52 |
| phh | TheData: configuring xorg.conf to reactivate it | 15:52 |
| phh | or killall -9 Xorg | 15:52 |
| TheData | sudo | 15:53 |
| tuanpham | no i mean that when from login window | 15:53 |
| tuanpham | i select soem safe mode | 15:53 |
| tuanpham | but on kde | 15:53 |
| TheData | yeah.. ok. | 15:53 |
| TheData | I meant: | 15:53 |
| TheData | phh: sudo killall -9 Xorg | 15:53 |
| tuanpham | don not use any button on my keyboar :( | 15:53 |
| phh | TheData: yeah yeah i got it | 15:54 |
| wsales | i searched in goofle about the problem and post a message on kubuntu users list, but no answers | 15:54 |
| tuanpham | it's look nice, but how can i use it with mouse only :) | 15:54 |
| TheData | tuanpham: did you try to go into the terminal? | 15:54 |
| tuanpham | yep (ANY APP) | 15:54 |
| TheData | tuanpham: the mouse is no use in the terminal... so .... you couldn't do anything? | 15:55 |
| tuanpham | no keyboard, event my soft menu of play back or volume up/down | 15:55 |
| tuanpham | mouse can use in teminal | 15:55 |
| TheData | tuanpham: ok..... my only suggestion you update your xserver... | 15:55 |
| tuanpham | but kebooawrd not | 15:55 |

| Mamarok | Captain_Haddock: FWIW, the kicker menu has a "Computer" section at the botton, that shows all the mounted partitions on the system, no need for a widget | 17:00 |
| petsounds | hello, i am now watching dvd with VLC and i can't hear 5.1 surround sound from my 5.1 ch speakers (every channel are flat). how to fix this? thank you. | 17:02 |
| alutza | gonna try my luck again : How do i obtain a sort of nautilus places thingy where i can see my mounted devices. Some sort of widget i can put next to the Kickoff | 17:07 |
| alutza | basicly a QuickAccess that looks for Computer:/// | 17:08 |
| Mamarok | alutza: the KDE menu ath the left of your panel has a "Computer section (button at the bottom), that shows you all the mountd partitions of your system | 17:09 |
| alutza | mamarok : weird mine doesnt | 17:10 |
| Mamarok | the kicker menu to be precise | 17:10 |
| alutza | maybe its because its the first time im in kubuntu | 17:10 |
| alutza | just upgraded | 17:10 |
| Mamarok | alutza: so you are using KDE 4.2.2 I guess | 17:10 |
| alutza | good point i see the "Places" tab where it should be | 17:10 |
| alutza | i dont really know.. i suppose when i upgraded the distro it installed KDE 4.2.2 | 17:11 |
| alutza | hence all the eye candy | 17:11 |
| Mamarok | alutza: if you upgrade to Kubuntu 9.04 that's what happened indeed | 17:11 |
| alutza | mhm | 17:11 |
| alutza | im gonna try rebooting | 17:11 |
| Mamarok | why? | 17:11 |
| Mamarok | alutza: you don't have to reboot, so why would you? | 17:12 |
| alutza | well... its the first time the system started since the update | 17:12 |
| alutza | maybe the kicker didn't "notice" the mounted partitions | 17:12 |
| Mamarok | well, no need to reboot at all, if you make changes and updates else than the kernel, no need ot reboot | 17:13 |
| Mamarok | alutza: you mean you can't see the mounted partions in the kicker menu? | 17:13 |
| alutza | yes | 17:13 |
| alutza | i can | 17:13 |
| alutza | 't | 17:13 |
| Mamarok | you can't, ok | 17:13 |
| Mamarok | and your system is up to date now or do you still have some KDE packages to install? | 17:14 |
| jithine | hi guys. Is any one using kubuntu karmic and firefox 3.5.1 facing firefox freezes? | 17:14 |
| Mamarok | jithine: you should ask in #ubuntu+1, Karmic questions are answered there | 17:14 |
| alutza | theoreticly no more packages to install.. the rest shows perfectly | 17:15 |
| jithine | Mamarok: ok thanks. | 17:15 |
| Mamarok | alutza: if you open Dolphin (the file manager), can you see all the partitions there? | 17:15 |
| Mamarok | jithine: yaw :) | 17:15 |
| alutza | yep | 17:15 |
| Mamarok | alutza: then those should indeed show up in the kicker menu | 17:16 |
| Mamarok | alutza: still no need to reboot, just log out of KDE and log in again | 17:16 |
| alutza | i did | 17:16 |
| alutza | 3 times | 17:16 |

| nikitis | Does ubuntu support nvidia's ion gpu? | 17:50 |
| rysiek|pl | nikitis: ask google if the nvidia's ion gpu supports ubuntu | 17:52 |
| rysiek|pl | nikitis: it's really that other way around, as ubuntu has no way of supporting something, that the manufacturer does not give any specs of | 17:52 |
| rysiek|pl | nikitis: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1043380 | 17:53 |
| nikitis | rysiek|pl: i can't even see where nvidia drivers are for the ion gpu on their site for any platform | 17:54 |
| rysiek|pl | nikitis: I suppose they're in the standard driver pack per platform? | 17:54 |
| nikitis | rysiek|pl: i'm lookin to buy a low powered server mini-itx board | 17:55 |
| nikitis | for home use | 17:55 |

| nikitis | or kubuntu | 17:56 |
| nikitis | wanted to know if anyone knew if it supported nvidia's new ion gpu is all | 17:56 |
| rysiek|pl | nikitis: if it's supposed to be a media-centre kind of machine, I would strongly suggest MythBuntu ;) | 17:56 |
| rysiek|pl | nikitis: besides - have a look at the link I gave you | 17:56 |
| rysiek|pl | nikitis: as far as I can see it's a standard x86 platform (Intel Atom is an x86 CPU), so there shouldn't be any problems running *buntu on it | 17:57 |
| rysiek|pl | nikitis: full support of all the features of the GPU is another matter, though | 17:58 |
| rysiek|pl | nikitis: but you don't need drivers for the ION, as far as I can see, as it's only a motherboard/platform; you need drivers for the GPU | 17:59 |

| noaXess | strange.. i have two stations with newest kubuntu release and both won't automatically check for updates.. any idea? | 20:40 |
| tdn | Captain_Haddock, ok. But shouldnt I have a trace or something to report it? Right now I do not have other info than the line from dmesg? | 20:40 |
| noaXess | where are the settings for auto check for updates, inknow in kpackagekit, but there it is enabled.. where is the config file for this? | 20:41 |
| Captain_Haddock | tdn: it wasn't there with the error message pop-up? | 20:42 |
| Captain_Haddock | perhaps you should see if it happens again and take it from there .. | 20:43 |
| Captain_Haddock | noaXess: probably in cron | 20:43 |
| noaXess | Captain_Haddock: ? should ther be a cron job for my, my user? | 20:43 |
| Captain_Haddock | noaXess: not sure.. it's probably a system-wide setting | 20:44 |
| Captain_Haddock | I think there's a GUI for cron as well | 20:44 |
| * Captain_Haddock checks. | 20:44 | |
| noaXess | Captain_Haddock: sudo crontab -l is empty | 20:44 |
| noaXess | and my crontab -l, there is only one job, my backup job | 20:44 |
| noaXess | Captain_Haddock: you mean "System Settings / Advanced / Task Scheduler"? | 20:45 |
| Captain_Haddock | noaXess: yep, I'm trying to figure out why it's missing in my install :S | 20:47 |
| noaXess | Captain_Haddock: is it missing to in your system, also no auto update check? | 20:47 |
| Captain_Haddock | the task scheduler is missing.. My autoupdate works fine.. it didn't in another PC for Gutsy; but that install is RIP atm | 20:48 |
| EagleScreen | please some help with kernel-package | 20:51 |
| Captain_Haddock | noaXess: it should be in /etc/cron.daily/apt | 20:53 |
| Captain_Haddock | task scheduler has an entry for it under system. | 20:53 |
| noaXess | Captain_Haddock: there is /etc/cron.daily/apt but.. why doesn't it work? | 20:54 |
| noaXess | Captain_Haddock: look at this.. ps ax | grep update | 20:59 |
| noaXess | 4584 ? SNl 3:34 python /usr/bin/update-notifier-kde | 20:59 |

| alutza | i can access them through \media\ | 22:21 |
| alutza | /media/ | 22:21 |

| Quintasan | alutza: I think there is no equivivalent to gconf and it's not needed | 22:31 |
| alutza | hmm | 22:31 |
| alutza | cant really find the one for kickoff | 22:31 |
| Quintasan | alutza: What do you need to change in Kickoff? | 22:32 |
| alutza | the fact that "computer" tab doesnt shot the media part | 22:33 |
| alutza | i cant see my mounted drives | 22:33 |
| alutza | in kickoff | 22:33 |
| alutza | and its annoying because its the fastest way to get it | 22:33 |
| Quintasan | alutza: Hmm, tried using Lancelot? | 22:33 |
| Quintasan | I didn't like Kickoff but I love Lancelot | 22:34 |
| alutza | well.. i dont want to use alternatives but i want to check if it works | 22:34 |
| alutza | ill be right back | 22:34 |
| alutza | ok lancelot sees it perfectly | 22:35 |
| alutza | kickoff doesnt | 22:35 |
| alutza | frustration >9000 | 22:35 |
| Quintasan | Well, then Lancelot == 9001 :P | 22:35 |
| alutza | so i should replace the K launcher with Lancelot? | 22:35 |
| alutza | i probably will, but this seems like a microsoft solution.... | 22:36 |
| === myst is now known as Guest70850 | ||
| Quintasan | If you want. | 22:36 |
| alutza | i still want to know how to conf kickoff | 22:36 |
| Quintasan | IMO Lancelot is better. | 22:36 |
| alutza | i trust that | 22:36 |
| alutza | looks nice | 22:36 |
| Quintasan | alutza: I think that is a problem within Kickoff source. | 22:37 |

| damjan_ | I haw 9.04 and there is lots of graphic issues | 22:38 |
| Quintasan | damjan_: intel card? | 22:38 |
| damjan_ | no | 22:38 |
| damjan_ | For example Konversation irc client is not in main theme | 22:39 |
| Quintasan | damjan_: I think Konversation in repos is still KDE 3 version | 22:39 |
| damjan_ | that my be the problem | 22:40 |
| damjan_ | what client do you recomend | 22:40 |
| Quintasan | damjan_: You don't like Quassel? | 22:41 |
| Dragnslcr | damjan_- the KDE4 version of Konversation is in one of the PPA repositories | 22:42 |
| damjan_ | I actualy new to kde , how to add repos in kde 4 | 22:43 |
| Quintasan | damjan_: ALT + F2 type kdesudo kate /etc/apt/sources.list and paste the lines | 22:44 |
| damjan_ | thnx | 22:46 |
| Kalmi_ | Is it normal that Ctrl-Alt-Left/Right is not set by default in KDE4? Every other desktop environment have it set up this way... | 22:46 |
| Quintasan | Kalmi_: And for what you need it? | 22:47 |
| Kalmi_ | Quintasan, switching desktops... | 22:47 |
| === dan_ is now known as daniel_san | ||
| damjan_ | Is there solution for problem with different graphics theme on different application | 22:48 |
| Quintasan | Kalmi_: Go to System Setting -> Desktop -> Effects -> All Effects -> Desktop Cube -> Perferences and set your bindings | 22:49 |
| Quintasan | damjan_: What application? | 22:49 |
| damjan_ | for example some times even kate is run with non theme window | 22:50 |
| Kalmi_ | Quintasan, Desktop Cube is not even enabled by default... | 22:51 |
| Quintasan | damjan_: You launched it with kdesudo, that means it launched as root, and root has default configuration, try ALT+F2 type kdesudo systemsettings and then change it. | 22:51 |
| Quintasan | Kalmi_: Why you are telling me it? Enable it and set up. | 22:52 |
| Kalmi_ | Quintasan, but I don't want no cube :) I only want simple plain dewsktop switching with the keybindings I am used to... | 22:53 |

| Kalmi_ | Quintasan, thanks... found it... I will never get used to KDE's settings... | 23:01 |
| Quintasan | Kalmi_: You will :P | 23:01 |
| zuz | if i want to add the dell repository, how can i do that? | 23:01 |
| Quintasan | zuz: humm there is no Dell repository, is there? | 23:02 |
| zuz | http://linux.dell.com/wiki/index.php/Repository/firmware im still trying to figure whether there is or not | 23:02 |
| zuz | thats dells linux support link | 23:03 |
| zuz | i was really surprised that dell has any kind of support for anything | 23:03 |
| zuz | im assuming this site has something to do with a dell firmware repository http://linux.dell.com/repo/firmware/ but i have no clue how to add it | 23:05 |
| Quintasan | Oh my | 23:05 |
| Quintasan | zuz: you type it in console directly | 23:05 |
| Quintasan | zuz: not into /etc/apt/sources.list | 23:05 |
| zuz | that was the first thing i tried | 23:05 |
| zuz | :) | 23:05 |
| Quintasan | zuz: You followed instruction after doing it? | 23:06 |
| zuz | i got errors | 23:07 |
| zuz | do i type "sudo" before the wget -q -O - http://linux.dell.com/repo/firmware/bootstrap.cgi | bash | 23:07 |
| zuz | ? | 23:07 |
| Quintasan | nope | 23:07 |
| zuz | Either there was a problem downloading the key, | 23:08 |
| zuz | or you do not have sufficient permissions to import the key. | 23:08 |
| Quintasan | zuz: I will send you a command, just paste it into konsole :P | 23:08 |
| zuz | thanks | 23:08 |
| phh | Quintasan: you're sure you don't need to do sudo bash ? | 23:08 |
| Quintasan | phh: not sure if it will work, last time I tried it, it threw some permission denied and hung :P | 23:09 |
| phh | ok | 23:09 |
| zuz | i installed kubuntu for the first time about a week ago and then i went all over, edited everything i could, changed everything so i could try to learn a bit, then formatted, made the partitions and started from scratch knowing alot more then i did just because i did that | 23:10 |
| zuz | but i still dont know alot, the wget -q -0 commandds i have no clue, i did learn about sudo and being root | 23:10 |
| Quintasan | zuz: wget -q -O - http://linux.dell.com/repo/firmware/bootstrap.cgi && chmod +x bootstrap.cgi && ./bootstrap.cgi && sudo aptitude install firmware-addon-dell && sudo aptitude install $(bootstrap_firmware -a) && sudo update_firmware | 23:10 |
| Quintasan | long eh, | 23:11 |
| zuz | just paste the whole thing in konsole? | 23:11 |
| Quintasan | zuz: yup | 23:11 |
| Quintasan | zuz: that sould do the trick | 23:12 |

| starcraftman | hello, need an expert with the audio subsystems. I'm a convert to KDE4 and I like it, my major problem is that when I play flash, I get no audio at all though video plays without issue. I know the flashplayer is working, I get crackling on the speakers indicating it's trying to ouput sound. I've looked around, and I think my problem is simply that Pulse isn't working for some reason in Kubuntu (though Ubuntu on the same machine supp | 23:58 |
| starcraftman | pulse without issue). I fixed the issue with local media on the disk by going to sound and forcing all content to output via alsa/HDA. Flash seems to continue using pulse. How can I either fix pulse or router flash to ALSA. | 23:58 |
| starcraftman | I'm fairly experienced, just not with KDE. Any help much appreciated. | 23:59 |
