oxymoronI have an interesting question. Why does not applications which not is using Phonon as Audio-input/ouput work at all? I cannot get any sound at all with VLC, Kaffeine, Flash and so on. But Amarok and Dragon Player works? :D14:33
EagleScreenusing jaunty oxymoron?14:34
oxymoronEagleScreen: No, karmic. But it did not work in Jaunty either so.14:35
oxymoronEagleScreen: This starting to happen with the new updates for KDE 4.3 RC and Beta.14:35
EagleScreenoxymoron: for karmic questions, #ubuntu+1 channel should be used14:36
oxymoronEagleScreen: And sometimes it says, you HDA INtel something analog device does not working, using PulseAudio instead ... This has ALWAYS been a problem since I starting to use GNU/LInux at all.14:36
EagleScreenoxymoron: in karmic kaffeine is a KDE4 application, do you have audio with it?14:37
oxymoronEagleScreen: No, Kaffeine has no sound14:37
EagleScreenHDA intel14:37
EagleScreeni have one14:37
samuii only want be nice :) my problem is the following: ive installed kubuntu 3-4 days ago and start to konfik the look.. wallpaper ect.. i changed the grub-splash, login screen, wallpaper. all the same picture. but i dont know how to change  the part between login and kde-desktop (a grey picture and kde loads.. showing a hdd, a digital planet, ect)14:38
oxymoronEagleScreen: HDA Intel seems like a little bitch, never works 100% perfect14:38
EagleScreenoxymoron: open Systemsettings -> Multimedia and tell us what do you see14:38
oxymoronEagleScreen: I see HDA Intel (AD198x) and PulseAudio14:40
EagleScreensamui: look for Systemsettings, but it is a low importance issue14:40
EagleScreenuse the function to test HDA Intel (AD198x)14:41
EagleScreenI have HDA Intel (ALC268 Analog) and worsk pretty well14:41
samuithank you EagleScreen14:42
oxymoronEagleScreen: Well, in test function it works perfect. Because it is using Phonon....14:43
EagleScreenoxymoron: kaffeine kde4 dont use phonon?14:44
oxymoronEagleScreen: I guess not?14:45
EagleScreenit could be still using xine14:45
EagleScreenwhich engine are you using for phonon, xine or gstreamer?14:45
oxymoronEagleScreen: Why does not every single audioapplication using Phonon? Is it not possible to make a shell which goes through every single app or something?14:46
oxymoronEagleScreen: How do I check that? I think is is gestreamer14:46
EagleScreenoxymoron: in Engine tab of Systemsettings -> Multimedia14:46
oxymoronEagleScreen: I am using Xine, Gstreamer does not work at all.14:49
EagleScreeni can remember that kind of problems using gstreamer, they disspaeared when I dropped to xine14:49

apparlewassup20:28
zobinI'm trying to find out how to install the ATI catalyst driver for Ubuntu20:29
Mamarokzobin: you mean the fglrx driver20:29
Mamarokcatalyst is just a frontend for driver settings IIRC20:29
zobinI mean this one: ATI Catalyst™ 9.3 Proprietary Linux x86 Display Driver20:29
apparlezobin is your card supported by the new driver20:30
Mamarokzobin: what graphic card do you have?20:30
zobinATI Radeon X850 Xt20:30
zobinI just want to be able to extend the desktop to my TV20:30
zobinI can't do it with the basic driver in Ubuntu. It doesnt recognize that I have a TV connected20:31
Mamarokzobdid you check this thread: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=26581720:32
Mamarokzobin: sry, nick completion, check the link above20:32
zobinThat topic is really accurate :)20:33
zobinThanks20:33
visheshHi! I was trying to compile a custom version of the linux kernel, and it compiled fine, but after doing the 'make install' I really don't know how to create the initrd image. Does anyone have any idea how ?20:33
Mamarokzobin: found with the search items 'ATI Radeon X850 Xt Linux' on Google :)20:34
apparleI have ATI Radeon Xpress 200 and use the open source drivers........................The funny part is sometimes the system boots with all the graphics enabled and sometimes completely disabled........???20:36

KovertMamarok: apt-get the normal20:41
MamarokKovert: well, update and the upgrade I guess?20:41
KovertMamarok: yes20:41
Mamarokto install firefox you need to specify the version, so it's sudo apt-get install firefox-3.5 (which is the latest release) or firefox-3.0 (the previous)20:42
MamarokKovert: about the workspace, that package is outdated, it should not ne there anymore, from what version are you upgrading?20:43
KovertMamarok: I a, running karmic20:43
KovertMamarok: alpha 220:43
MamarokKovert: the you should ask in #ubuntu+1, Karmic support is there20:43
Mamarokthen*20:44
Kovertmarcel: I did thats why I am here :-)20:44
Kovertsorry Mamarok20:44
Mamarokwell, we don't support Karmic here, it's really in #ubuntu+120:44
KovertMamarok: I know got no help there20:44
KovertI will go back20:45

gila_monsterHello, all.21:11
gila_monsterA number of us on the System76 forum at ubuntuforums.org have a problem wtih Kubuntu on our laptops. It's not recognizing when the AC adapter is plugged in.21:11
gila_monsterI've done a good deal of googling, and there was something on the Sabayon forums that might have worked for someone, but it didn't look applicable to Kubuntu.21:12
gila_monsterAre we missing something obvious here? Basically, the system doesn't seem to be checking the state of the AC power at all.21:12
Mamarokgila_monster: what Kubuntu version are you talking about?21:12
ward__Hello I'm having problems with flash. I have no sound on youtube and sometimes firefox is crashing21:13
gila_monsterMamarok: 9.04. There are reports that things worked in 8.10. I didn't use KDE with 8.10, so no direct experience on my part.21:13
Mamarokward__: well, that's flash :/21:13
Dragnslcrward__- do you also use Amarok?21:13
ward__yes21:13
Mamarokgila_monster: 9.04 is KDE4, so it depends on wether you talk about a widget or an application21:14
MamarokDragnslcr: that is *not* an Amarok issue!21:14
Dragnslcrward__- exit out of Amarok, then see if Flash starts working21:14
ward__okay i'll try that21:14
MamarokDragnslcr: it's a flash problem, don't blame the wrong application21:14
Mamarokor more precisly a flash with phonon problem21:15
ward__yes now I have sound :)21:15
Mamarokgila_monster: Kubuntu 8.10 had KDE3 and KDE4, so it highly depends on what it was reported21:15
Dragnslcrward__- there's your workaround for now, then21:15
ward__how can I fix it ?21:15
Dragnslcrward__- waiting until phonon/Flash gets fixed is all you can do21:16
ward__okay what's the problem then?21:16
Mamarokward__: check in the systesettings -> multimedi what phonon backend you are using21:16
MamarokDragnslcr: wrong, there *is* a solution, not just a workaround21:16
Dragnslcrward__- here's one bug report about it. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox-3.0/+bug/37440721:16
* Mamarok gives up as nobody listens anyway :(21:17
gila_monsterMamarok: Yes and no, I think. I'm using the battery monitor plasmoid, which tells me that the battery is staying at 100%, but puts the system in powersave because it thinks it's not plugged in. I'm not sure it's the plasmoid's fault, though, because the on_ac_power command through bash says that the AC is not plugged in. If the plasmoid is using that system.... Checking /proc/acpi/ac_adapter reveals that there is no file in that dir21:17
gila_monster so whatever daemon or service is supposed to be checking it is not writing anything to that location.21:17
ward__I don't see anything phonon onlu xine21:17
Dragnslcrward__- the last person to comment on the bug report suggests using pulseaudio instead21:17
Mamarokgila_monster: that widget doesn't show if you are plugged in indeed, as it's just a basic battery widget, not a powermanager one21:18
Mamarokward__: don't, this is even worse...21:18
MamarokDragnslcr: stop telling such things, please, it works21:18
gila_monsterMamarok: what power manager does KDE4 use? I don't see a process with "power" in the name. Is it embedded in KDE4?21:19
Mamarokgila_monster: one needs the guidance-power-manager21:19
ward__okay it works now with the pulse as output !21:19
gila_monsterMamarok: I haven't used KDE since about 3.1, so I'm a little behind on the new stuff.21:19
ward__thanks you guys !21:19
gila_monsterMamarok: Okay, I know that's not installed right now.21:20
* Mamarok knows someone who can't use Amarok or Dragonplayer anymore now...21:20
gila_monsterMamarok: I suppose that it's not installed by default because the installation does not assume it's going on a laptop. Yes?21:22
DrknezzHi guys!, just wanted to point out something Amarok 2's sound works great with a pulse ;)21:22
adambennett08330can someone help me out plz?21:23
MamarokDrknezz: well, lucky you then, it doesn't work for most of the users21:23
Mamarok!ask | adambennett0833021:23
Mamarokhm, sorry, the bot is still down21:23
Mamarokadambennett08330: just ask21:23
adambennett08330i just installed kubuntu and it froze so  i went to command line and i installed fluxbox...problem is i dunno where the package manager is lol21:24
Mamarokadambennett08330: neither do I, never used fluxbox21:24
gila_monsterMamarok: once installed, do I need to put that in autostart manually? Or will a reboot get me to goodness?21:24
msichalhi everyone, is it normal that kubuntu 9.04 has cpu, hdd, network usage plasmoids, but not MEM ?21:25
msichalhow to get it?21:25
Mamarokgila_monster: it allows you to configure the powermanagement in the systemsettings-> advanced tab21:25
apparlewhen is 4.3 realeasing21:27
msichalcan someone answer?21:27
adambennett08330ill be back...going to console maybe i can get amsn through apt-get lol21:28
gila_monsterMamarok: that all appeared to be there anyway. So I executed guidance-power-manager in bash, and it sent repeated "No AC adapter found - assume that we are on batteries." messages to the terminal. So this did not help.21:30
gila_monsterMamarok: for whatever reason, it just doesn't recognize the AC adapter.21:30
pedahzurSo my (small) kids got to my wife's account while she was away from her computer and started pushing buttons.  Something tweaked, and now she cannot bring background windows to the foreground, even though they activate. I've been through all the Window activation/"click to raise" settings I can find, but no joy.  Any other places to check?21:31
Mamarokgila_monster: you might have a look at https://bugs.launchpad.net then21:33
yitehaycan anyone tell me how to use both kde and gnome together?<<<<<21:33
msichalomg, theres 290 ppl and noone can answer?21:33
Mamarokgila_monster: do you have that widget in the panel?21:33
gila_monstermamarok: okay. thanks.21:33
gila_monstermamarok: widget is in the bottom panel, yes.21:33
Mamarokmsichal: well, most just idle here, so be patient, it's Sunday evening in Europe21:34
msichal;(21:34
Mamarokgila_monster: it should show a yellow flash nect to the battery symbol which shows only when you are plugged in21:34
Mamaroknext*21:34
Mamarokapparle: 4th of August IIRC21:35
gila_monstermamarok: Nothing like that. Green bars in the shape of a battery indicating full charge.21:35
Mamarokmsichal: there is a widget for RAM, too21:35
gila_monstermsichal: Tour de France day, too. Might be parties all over. ;)21:35
Mamarokgila_monster: well, then it's only there in KDE 4.2.9621:35
Mamarokit shure shows for me21:35
Planetaryok so  i all my graphics work great except hd flash videos, they are choppy. also fullscreen videos can be choppy. i do have legacy workaround on in compiz. i have kubutnu restricted extras installed. i have a geforce 7600gt with dirver 180 working fine. 173 and 96 are options. waht should i do, should i try a differnt driver?21:36
Planetaryi will be back later i would appreciate input thanks all21:36
gila_monsterMamarok: I'll check launchpad. I'm hesitant to install 4.3 RC just to fix this, though. The workaround is to use the battery monitor to set the system to Performance, which at least keeps it from suspending to RAM every 15 minutes.21:37
MamarokPlanetary: you should stay, one might need your feedback, just putting questions in and leaving is not a good idea21:37
Mamarokgila_monster: 4.3 will be out early August and will be in the regular jaunty-backports, so just be patient21:37
Mamarokit's already much more stable than 4.2.x ever was anyway21:37
plagueusrehm peps, i ahve two problems, can anyone try to help me? :P21:37
gila_monsterPlanetary: I had the nvidia 185 driver installed last week on Ubuntu, and it provided some performance improvements. It's not trivial to install, but if you have some experience and are comfortable with a command line, you might look into it.21:38
Mamarokplagueusr: just ask and be patient21:38
gila_monstermamarok: Thanks!21:38
Mamarokgila_monster: you are welcome :)21:38
Fanfare_Q: could a native english pls read over http://www.cyber-byte.at/wiki/index.php/English:_Setup21:40

MamarokFanfare_: what, do you exopect us to correct translations? this is a #kubuntu support channel :)21:42
msichalneed to restert x?21:42
Mamarokplagueusr: you shouldn't use Compiz in KDE4, it has it's own compositing21:42
adambennett08330yay i fixed it :D21:42
msichaloh21:42
Mamarokplagueusr: next time you should be sure that the person who gives you advice really uses KDE too, sorry, but that person was a Gnome user and didn't know about the desktop effects21:43
msichaldoes someone know how to use emerald in kde4?21:43
adambennett08330i wanna use the window manager normal ubuntu has but i forget the package name :S21:43
Fanfare_Mamarok: that was just meant to ask if one here has time... i didnt want to forece someone to... (in some ways its also kubuntu related btw)21:43
Mamarokmsichal: you don't use it at all, KDE4 has desktop effects compositing, don't use compiz, please21:43
MamarokFanfare_: well, you need to be patient, don't know who is a native speaker here21:44
msichali just need emerald can i use kde4 composting to use emerald themes?21:44
adambennett08330new to linux but im learning :)21:44
Mamarokmsichal: remove compiz and emerald and check in the system settings-> Desktop -> Desktop effects21:44
plagueusrMamarok: oke oke tnx21:45
Mamarokagain, KDE4 doesn't use compiz *at* *all*21:45
Fanfare_Mamarok: as said i dont expect immediate review :-)21:45
Mamarokadambennett08330: are you on Ubuntu or on Kubuntu?21:46
MamarokKubuntu uses KDE, Ubuntu uses Gnome, support for the latter is in #ubuntu BTW21:47
adambennett08330im on kubuntu21:48
adambennett08330use fluxbox cause loading freezes after login21:48
Mamarokadambennett08330: because it's not meant to be the default desktop I guess21:49
adambennett08330if i wanna switch to gnome i gotta select all gnome packages in synaptic?21:52
msichalMamarok, cant find it... theres no way to use emerald theme with kde or im just blind ;/21:53
Mamarokmsichal: read what I said, you do *not* use emerald in KDE4...21:53
MamarokKDE4 has it's own compisiting21:53
