Settings will be reverted to their previous values. Check your X configuration. You may also consider changing advanced options, especially changing the compositing type. [00:07] (that last bit gave me a laugh :p) [00:08] I'm using the KDE 4.2.2 packages that came with the distro (Kubuntu 9.04), as well as the default "radeon" driver that Kubuntu installed [00:08] heh [00:08] you need the proprietary ATI driver for accelerated 3D [00:08] !ati [00:08] For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto [00:09] it's unusual, at least in my experience, that OpenGL would fail, and Xrender work [00:09] tsimpson: fglrx? [00:09] Alumin: yes [00:09] hmm [00:10] OpenGL uses hardware, XRender uses software [00:10] OK...the "desktop effect" I really wanted was real transparency, and that does work with XRender, so I may elect to not install it and forego the other effects...trying to run as "pure" of a system as possible [00:10] but thanks for the info, it's good to know that that's the issue and not some kind of configuration b0rk :) [00:10] it's always a trade-off [00:11] freedom Vs functionality [00:11] (in hardware anyway) [00:11] tsimpson: to the day when that's not true! *clink* :) [00:16] along with Security Vs Convenience [00:20] Hi [00:21] My ubuntu is not starting...

(ie, back button not working, general breakage of other features)? [01:53] on my Wintendo machine it did :) === maximo_ is now known as Nasra [01:53] no, seems to work fine actually, save one for one extension that didn't think it was compatible === Nasra is now known as Maximo [01:53] Alumin, hmmm... I don't want to wipe another profile, but it won't even open my homepage [01:54] ...at least not on startup. blank page every time. [01:54] I have 3.0 and 3.5 installed side-by-side on this (Kubuntu) machine and they both seem to work fine except the Java package depends specifically against firefox-3.0 === Palaskin is now known as Pliskin [01:54] (otherwise I'd still be using 3.5) [01:54] Alumin, any idea how to revert? [01:54] revert to what, 3.0? [01:54] yah [01:54] are you on Jaunty? [01:54] Alumin, yessir [01:55] just install the "firefox-3.0" package (and remove the "firefox-3.5" package if you want) [01:55] Alumin, let me see. apparently "firefox" now means "firefox-3.5" [01:56] % aptitude show firefox | grep ^Depends: [01:56] Depends: firefox-3.0, firefox-3.0-branding [01:56] not on mine :) [01:57] Alumin, i wonder if the kde 4.3 repos brought this in... [01:57] you can check that with "apt-cache policy firefox" [01:57] see where it got your currently-installed "firefox" package from [01:58] Alumin, Aha! " 500 http://ppa.launchpad.net jaunty/main Packages" [01:58] ign0ramus- sure you're on 9.04? I have the backports PPA, and "firefox" is still 3.0.13 [01:58] Dragnslcr, positive. [01:58] wtf is ppa heh [01:58] Personal Package Archive [01:58] Alumin, personal packa [01:58] ^ yeah [01:59] They're used for stuff that isn't officially supported [01:59] Dragnslcr, "apt-cache policy firefox" reports that line for firefox-3.5 [01:59] oh...so each Ubuntu dev has a subdirectory? [01:59] Dragnslcr, for 3.0.13, the line is: "500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com jaunty-updates/main Packages" [01:59] Yeah, check your sources list [02:00] Alumin- dunno if they all do, but they all could if they wanted [02:00] Dragnslcr, can I safely remove that PPA and now officially have KDE 4.3? [02:01] If the only extra repository you have is backports for KDE 4.3, "firefox" should be 3.0.13 [02:02] Dragnslcr, i also have "deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-ppa/ppa/ubuntu jaunty main" === nick is now known as Guest80959 [02:05] Dragnslcr, well, removing the two ppa's took care of the Shiretoko issue, and it didn't remove any kde base packages, so I think I'm in the clear here [02:05] Dragnslcr, so I assume that KDE 4.3 is now in the supported repos? [02:06] please hw can i change the desktop or screen resolution. Things are all big and i dn't like it [02:06] milo__, in System Settings or using xrandr [02:10] ignOramus: thanks; im there but i can't find the exact place :( [02:10] ign0ramus- no, 4.3 is still only in the backports PPA [02:10] Dragnslcr, yeah, was reading... I am adding the backports PPA *only* (the one listed on the Kubuntu homepage) [02:11] I have the same PPA as you, so the problem must have been something else [02:11] Maybe just an outdated cache [02:11] ignOramus: what am i supposed to do once i have typed xrandr? [02:12] Dragnslcr, no, but I also had the "jaunty-updates" PPA, not just the backports PPA [02:12] !resolution | milo__ [02:12] milo__: The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type « sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart » in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution [02:14] Dragnslcr, err, I mean "http://ppa.launchpad.net jaunty/main Packages" - that was the repo pulling in Firefox 3.5 (Shiretoko) [02:15] Dragnslcr, removing that but keeping the Backports seems to be my fix.

[10:02] abuse the keyboard, like holding Ctrl+I (showing/hiding the filter bar) [10:02] see if dolphin stops responding to keyboard input [10:02] that's more likely a Qt issue [10:02] it's been bugging me since 4.2 [10:02] xm i can weite to the bar [10:02] if it's not fixed, ok [10:04] sunonet: as I said, it's most likely an issue with Qt, which KDE is build on. have you reported the bug to KDE or launchpad? [10:05] I haven't , because I'm not sure this problem can be reproduced. And I don't know how to report bugs, really.

[10:07] reporting it to LP let's us get more info, then send upstream [10:07] besides, KDE are not responsible for Qt [10:08] tsimpson: well, I don't see bugs coming upstream that often, so reporting it upstream is much better, if it is a packaging issue, we send it downstream :) [10:08] Mamarok: all the more reason to report to LP first :) [10:08] and it's quite easy to do: https://bugs.kde.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=dolphin (in this case, else replace the product name) [10:09] tsimpson: if you think so... If I weren't subscribed to the Amarok bugs in Launchpad, I would never ever see something coming upstream TBH === morten_ is now known as Morten1971 [10:10] even if that has improved lately [10:10] Mamarok: I know we send reports upstream, as LP emails me about it :p [10:10] we could do better though, just man-power issues [10:11] yep, same on our side [10:33] Hi, I'm trying to update to Opera 10 beta.
