[04:25] <kaddi> hi, my firefox recently decided, taht pdf-files should be opened with dolphin, when I execute it from the downloadlist.
[04:25] <kaddi> where can i set up which program opens the file from the downloadlist?
[04:27] <pair0doc> is it K>system settings>default applications?
[04:27] <kaddi> pair0doc: no, that one is set to okular as pdfreader
[04:28] <pair0doc> what version of FF?
[04:28] <kaddi> 3.5.2
[04:29] <brassmaster> can anyone tell me what steps i need to take in order to enable threaded conversations in kmail?
[04:29] <kaddi> I'm not even sure if this is a FF setting or not. I set okular to default pdfreader in system settings and firefox settings
[04:29] <pair0doc> I am still using 3.0.13 so I may not be the best to answer then.
[04:30] <pair0doc> have you restarted FF incase the setting was cached in mem?
[04:31] <kaddi> i've had that problem for a couple of weeks and the settings haven't changed recently
[04:32] <kaddi> I'm gonna check if the problem exists with ff 3.9
[04:32] <kaddi> 3.0
[04:32] <pair0doc> ok.

[10:15] <aar>  Hi, when I resume the system from sleep mode the screen looks dark (as if on battery mode), despite the fact that it's connected to the mains. The screen also goes darker when I start mplayer. Why is this happening? (Kuuntu 8.04 on a Dell Inspiron laptop)
[10:17] <the_madman> Hello everyone.
[10:17] <the_madman> I've got something of a major problem...
[10:17] <the_madman> Whenever I try to run, "sudo", I get: "sudo: must be setuid root"
[10:17] <the_madman> Thing is, I made sure I was in the admin group and double-checked /etc/sudoers with visudo.
[10:18] <rubyist> chmod o+s /usr/bin/sudo
[10:18] <the_madman> rubyist: Is this when I get glad that I set a root password?
[10:18] <rubyist> yeah, do it as root
[10:19] <the_madman> rubyist: Done, but I still get the same error.
[10:19] <rubyist> ls -al /usr/bin/sudo
[10:19] <the_madman> -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 115136 2009-02-17 03:22 /usr/bin/sudo
[10:19] <rubyist> the +s wasn't set.
[10:19] <the_madman> Ah.
[10:20] <the_madman> ... It isn't letting me set it as root.
[10:20] <rubyist> just try, chmod +s /usr/bin/sudo
[10:21] <the_madman> -rwsr-sr-x 1 root root 115136 2009-02-17 03:22 /usr/bin/sudo
[10:21] <rubyist> ok now its set..
[10:21] <the_madman> Looks better, methinks.
[10:21] <rubyist> try sudo now
[10:21] <the_madman> Ah, it's working now.
[10:21] <the_madman> Thanks.
[10:21] <rubyist> ok
[10:21] <the_madman> I suppose you wouldn't know what changed it, since you weren't following my every move...
[10:22] <rubyist> nope, no idea.
[10:22] <the_madman> What exactly does the 's' bit do?
[10:22] <rubyist> you could have accidentely removed the s bit on all files, i don't knwo
[10:22] <rubyist> don't know*
[10:22] <rubyist> it runs the command with the permissions of the user/group
[10:22] <the_madman> Oh! I think I know now.
[10:22] <rubyist> so runs with the permission of root in this case
[10:23] <the_madman> I see.
[10:23] <the_madman> Thanks.
[10:23] <the_madman> I know what I did.
[10:23] <the_madman> Got some problems with Nepomuk not seeing /usr/lib/soprano/libsoprano_sesame2backend.so
[10:23] <the_madman> Even though the file exists.
[10:24] <rubyist> is that where it looks?
[10:24] <the_madman> So I went and (quite oblivious to the +s bit) did chmod -R 755 /usr
[10:24] <the_madman> *facepalm
[10:25] <rubyist> ah :)
[10:25] <the_madman> Yeah, nepomukserver spits out, '(Soprano::PluginManager) found no soprano plugin at  "/usr/lib/soprano/libsoprano_sesame2backend.so"'
[10:25] <the_madman> In a console.
[10:26] <rubyist> hm no clue, never used it before
[10:26] <the_madman> -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 108416 2009-02-13 18:55 /usr/lib/soprano/libsoprano_sesame2backend.so
[10:26] <the_madman> It's absolutely, definitely there. >.<'
[10:26] <the_madman> It's a shame as well... I quite liked nepomuk on Gentoo...
[10:27] <the_madman> Was one of the only things that actually worked, though >.<'
[10:27] <the_madman> Oh well. Problem solved. Thanks again. :)
[10:27] <rubyist> no worries
[10:47] <XtoTheZ> can i make usb printer accessible from other pcs in local network?
[10:55] <Coyotes> yes...
[10:55] <Coyotes> but I don't know how on Kubuntu :(
[10:56] <Coyotes> I've done it... but on Windows.  Anyone a Linux printing expert?
[10:58] <mat69> omg why does openjdk6-source depend on pulseaudio?!
[11:08] <mat69> hmm the dependencies are completly fucked, so much (artificially) depends on gnome and other things
[11:15] <ghostcube> mat69: if there are calls to the libs it brings in i wont say its fucked up
[11:17] <mat69> ghostcube: another one is fam, pulls a lot of gnome stuff
[11:17] <mat69> and no, fam depends in no way on anything gnome related in reality
[11:18] <hyper_ch> anyone here using kde 4.3.1 and OOo 3.1? I have a problem that when I want to save (or save as) and then in the dialog box, where I can tell name and location, when I right click on the directory structur the contex menu appears but there's not text  --> http://www.sjau.ch/ooobug.png
[11:18] <ghostcube> if there is anything inside depending on gnome functions sure
[11:18] <mat69> trying to install a dev-environment results in nearly as many gnome stuff as kde stuff ...
[11:18] <mat69> when they changed fam a lot
[11:18] <mat69> a stupid way
[11:18] <ghostcube> it wouldnt work on gnome if it wouldnt depend on some of its functions
[11:19] <mat69> it is no problem if gnome-apps pull it, as _they_ depend on it
[11:20] <mat69> but fam itself should not pull gnome-stuff
[11:36] <children> hi
[11:36] <children> testing
[11:36] <children> testing
[11:44] <Mamarok> mat69: FAM is obsolete, you shouldn't use it in KDE anyway
[11:44] <mat69> Mamarok: what made it obsolete? the cmake output suggests to use it
[11:44] <Mamarok> mat69: what are you trying to compile?
[11:45] <mat69> Mamarok: I do compile everything, but in that case I think it was kdelibs
[11:46] <Mamarok> mat69: right, then you should check on techbase,kde,org or ask in #kde, AFAIK it is not really needed anmore
[11:46] <mat69> well I have installed it now anyway
[11:47] <Mamarok> must be Kubuntu specific then, but most distributions don't need it anymore
[11:47] <mat69> Mamarok: the cmake output is not Kubuntu specific ;)
[11:47] <mat69> it is optional
[11:49] <Mamarok> mat69: also, AFAIK Kubuntu uses gamin
[11:49] <Mamarok> which is intened as a FAM replacement
[11:50] <mat69> Mamarok: gamin is not even installed by default
[11:50] <Mamarok> neither are
[11:50] <Mamarok> but if you need a file monitoring tool, gamin is the way to go
[11:51] <mat69> Mamarok: it appears that gamin is not supported by kde --> at least no cmake-msg about it
[11:52] <mat69> with kde I mean the src
[11:52] <Mamarok> mat69: well, then you should ask in #kde or #kde-devel, this goes way beyond the scope of this channel :)
[12:06] <philipp__> hi
[12:07] <philipp__> can someone help me please?
[12:11] <philipp__> hello?
[12:13] <the_madman> Sorry I'm back. Policykit authorization isn't working.
[12:13] <the_madman> Think it's related to the problem I had with sudo...
[12:14] <philipp__> can you help me please?
[12:15] <the_madman> philipp__: What's the problem?
[12:16] <philipp__> i can't clear my bin
[12:16] <the_madman> philipp__: The wastebin?
[12:16] <philipp__> or what's the english word for that? trash bin?
[12:16] <the_madman> Yes, that.
[12:16] <philipp__> i mean the deleted files
[12:17] <the_madman> Yes.
[12:17] <philipp__> sorry I'm german
[12:17] <philipp__> ah ok
[12:17] <the_madman> It's all right.
[12:17] <the_madman> Have you tried right click --> "Empty trash"?
[12:18] <philipp__> yes it don't work
[12:18] <philipp__> one moment i write the error
[12:18] <philipp__> /home/user/.local/share/Trash/info/msfd_1.trashinfo.trashinfo.trashinfo.trashinfo couldn't be read
[12:19] <philipp__> the last thing i tried to translate
[12:19] <the_madman> Give me a second.
[12:19] <philipp__> ok thx
[12:20] <the_madman> Try: chmod -755 /home/user/.local/share/Trash/
[12:20] <the_madman> Then try again.
[12:21] <philipp__> [Trash Info]
[12:21] <philipp__> Path=/home/philipp/.local/share/Trash/info/msfd.trashinfo.trashinfo.trashinfo.trashinfo
[12:21] <philipp__> DeletionDate=2009-09-07T13:19:22
[12:21] <philipp__> sry
[12:21] <philipp__> chmod: invalid option --7
[12:22] <philipp__> doesn't work
[12:23] <the_madman> Oops. Try: chmod 755 /home/user/.local/share/Trash/
[12:23] <the_madman> Sorry.
[12:23] <the_madman> My mistake.
[12:24] <philipp__> maybe i should try to delete the info directory
[12:25] <the_madman> Maybe.
[12:25] <the_madman> If you want, you can just do rm -fr /home/user/.local/share/Trash/*
[12:26] <philipp__> ok thx i delete the info direktory and made a new one. now the Empty trash option is unclickable
[12:26] <philipp__> ok now it works
[12:26] <philipp__> thx
[12:26] <the_madman> Cool.
[12:26] <the_madman> :)
[12:27] <philipp__> do you have an problem, too?
[12:27] <philipp__> a problem sry
[12:28] <the_madman> I have, but it's a bit hard.
[12:28] <philipp__> do you use ubuntu or kubuntu? what's the problem?
[12:29] <the_madman> I use Kubuntu. When I try to install/remove programs from Add and remove software, it shows, "You don't have the necessary privileges to perform this action."
[12:31] <philipp__> can you open this softwar per root?
[12:32] <the_madman> Yes, I can.
[12:32] <the_madman> But I shouldn't have to.
[12:33] <the_madman> It worked when I ran as user before.
[12:33] <philipp__> did it work on root?
[12:33] <the_madman> Yes.
[12:33] <the_madman> It's a problem with policykit.
[12:33] <philipp__> did you try chmod?
[12:36] <the_madman> I did.
[12:37] <the_madman> Sorry, I have to go now.
[12:37] <the_madman> I'll be back later.
[12:37] <the_madman> Thanks anyway.
[12:37] <the_madman> :)
[12:37] <philipp__> ok np
[13:16] <hugleo> hi

[13:23] <asm`> hi guys, i just installed kubuntu in a VM, first time user..
[13:23] <asm`> when i minimize konquerer it disappears but i can still get to it iwth alt+tab
[13:23] <asm`> any thoughts?
[13:24] <philipp__> sorry i don't understand the problem
[13:24] <asm`> well

[13:30] <rabidweezle> what's the name of that app that lets you get a mouse cursor in a console tty?
[13:31] <rabidweezle> isn't it like gm or something like that?
[13:31] <rabidweezle> it's like 2 or 3 letters
[13:33] <philipp__> i don't understand what you mean, you have normally an mouse cursor in a console
[13:42] <rabidweezle> philipp__: I was reffering to gpm
[13:42] <rabidweezle> for the tty's you need it to use a mouse
[13:43] <rabidweezle> and it seems to be broken in kubuntu since I installed it, went to use my mouse and it killed X on me XD
[13:43] <rabidweezle> no biggy, I will just use konsole for apps that require a mouse in terminal
[13:46] <rabidweezle> !bootsplash

[16:14] <mihai> http://getsongbird.com/
[16:14] <mihai> http://getsongbird.com/
[16:15] <mihai> itś this ok?
[16:16] <Dragnslcr> chisel_- you'll have to know what slot type your motherboard has (probably PCI-E or AGP)
[16:16] <chisel_> that should work mihai, but make sure you get the debian/linux/ubuntu version if there is the option
[16:16] <mihai> how i can se mi version?
[16:16] <chisel_> ok so how do i find that out Drags?
[16:17] <mihai> :(
[16:17] <chisel_> mihai, version of what?
[16:17] <Dragnslcr> chisel_- easiest way would be to read the docs for your motherboard. Second easiest would be to open the case and look at the motherboard
[16:18] <mihai> of my linux
[16:18] <chisel_> my case is open, can you tell me what to look for? or do you know if nvidia geforce is one or the other?
[16:19] <chisel_> uname -a
[16:19] <chisel_> mihai type: uname -a in terminal
[16:20] <chisel_> dragnslcr so its all about my mother board then?
[16:23] <mihai> who know how to do a private tribalwar server??
[16:24] <mihai> who know how to do a private tribalwar server??
[16:24] <BluesKaj> !patience
[16:47] <philipp_> !de
[16:49] <philipp_> did you install songbird | mihai
[16:49] <philipp_> i know a way to do this
[16:49] <herenbdy> are there any KDE-based gnutella clients in the repos?
[16:54] <Guest92075> does anyone here know if it's possible to associate plasma activites with virtual desktops
[16:54] <AFLunatic> I'm having HUGE issues installing kubuntu... Everytime I boot from live cd or install inside windows.. it takes about 10 minutes to 'boot' the install but never does, it just says { DRDY ERR } and UNC.. Any ideas?
[16:54] <Guest92075> I am struggling to understand the difference
[16:54] <BluesKaj> gnutella is gnome
[16:55] <BluesKaj> kde client will have a diff client
[16:55] <BluesKaj> name
[16:56] <rezonans19> Hello 2All
[16:58] <herenbdy> BluesKaj: I don't think the G stands for gnome in that case
[16:59] <BluesKaj> AFLunatic, are you using wubi to installinside windows ?
[16:59] <AFLunatic> I've tried both, Live CD and wubi
[16:59] <AFLunatic> same error both times
[16:59] <BluesKaj> herenbdy, you can still use gnutella on kde
[17:00] <herenbdy> yeah, gtk-gnutella, wanted to know if there was a native KDE program though
[17:02] <rezonans19> Is anybody has SiS672 3D driver for Kubuntu 9.04 x86_64 ?
[17:03] <Guest70740> is there any way to configure kopete to use irc chat
[17:05] <BluesKaj> not in it's latest version
[17:05] <rezonans19> 70740 Just add a your's IIN
[17:05] <BluesKaj> !pidgin
[17:06] <rezonans19> BluesKaj said good, use pidgin or aolaim or miranda
[17:06] <Guest70740> i was using pidgin before but saw kopete now  has facebook so thought i would give it a try
[17:08] <BluesKaj> kde4 doesn't support kopete irc for some reason
[17:08] <BluesKaj> Guest70185, IMO pidgin is easier to configure and use anyway
[17:09] <Guest70185> i'll go back to pidgin but that doesnt do video chat ... too bad there isn't a program that has all features
[17:09] <BluesKaj> Guest70185, and you could always use a dedicated irc client like konversation :)
[17:09] <BluesKaj> amsn ?
[17:09] <Guest70185> yea i'm using quassel now
[17:10] <BluesKaj> !amsn
[17:10] <BluesKaj> !info amsn
[17:11] <BluesKaj> kinda useless for irc tho :(
[17:11] <caseyd> does anyone in here use kismet? I installed it with KPackageKit.. but i can't get it to work
[17:15] <rezonans19> Fucking cat
[17:16] <BluesKaj> caseyd, it's a konsole app
[17:16] <caseyd> i'm having trouble finding what folder it's in so I  can run ./configure
[17:16] <BluesKaj> rezonans19, no need for that lkind of language here
[17:17] <caseyd> i'm still new to linux.. had it about a week now, but im picking it up =)
[17:17] <rezonans19> ok
[17:17] <BluesKaj> caseyd,  /usr/bin usually ,but just run it in the terminal with sudo
[17:20] <caseyd> yeah I did that, but it's not working like the readme says, it says when I run kismet it will prompt me to ad a capture interface
[17:21] <caseyd> maybe I should just find the gui version ;-)
[17:22] <BluesKaj> you have to give the client a server to find like an IP or some such
[17:26] <jeiworth> hi all,anyone have a goos suggestion for a program to convert video formats, e.g. quicktime to xvid and such?
[17:34] <BluesKaj> jeiworth, ffmpeg , but go to the ffmpeg site and compile it . The versions in the repos including medibuntu are stripped of some uses
[17:46] <jeiworth> BluesKaj: thanks for the tip, although i am on experimental repos, i don't know if those are stripped as well but with checkinstall shouldn't be a problem installing it from source as recent version
[17:52] <jorge__> Hola
[17:58] <kailash> help me ... i am using istanbul for desktop screencast ... but if i use it for about 10 minutes ...
[17:58] <kailash> it hangs up ........
[18:02] <caseyd> so if i have a program stuck open, how can I get to something like 'Task Manager' in windows to 'end task' it
[18:03] <kailash> help me ... i am using istanbul for desktop screencast ... but if i use it for about 10 minutes ...
[18:03] <kailash> it hangs up ........
[18:04] <caseyd> if something works for 10 minutes and then hangs up without you doing anything new, it is logical to assume that you have insufficient system resources for it to continue to run
 so if i have a program stuck open, how can I get to something like 'Task Manager' in windows to 'end task' it <-- CTRL+ESC
[18:23] <sczgilae> hi to all, im installing an USB DLINK network card in my Kubuntu 9.04 and im having some problems. when i type "lsusb" i see that the system knows the device bit when im configuring network on this adapter the system block sometimes. how can i install correctly the device?
[18:29] <BluesKaj> sczgilae, do you mean it connects for a while and then drops the connection for no apparent reason ?

[18:35] <calvin_> the new kubuntu alpha 5 is awesome
[18:35] <Admiral_Chicago> and if I run dpkg -reconfigure it doesn't really run. it just hangs for a second and returns me to the terminal
[18:37] <BluesKaj> Admiral_Chicago, X is practically uneditable in jaunty , you can thank the kernel modules in the latest upgrades for that
[18:39] <Admiral_Chicago> BluesKaj: hmm, I am getting help in the Karmic channel. this was technically a Karmic issue but I came in here
[18:39] <Admiral_Chicago> BluesKaj: Is Hoary the same way?

[19:29] <BluesKaj> which driver, wext ?
[19:29] <sebastian_> yep wext
[19:30] <BluesKaj> you have to click on the connect button, some ppl don't realize that
[19:30] <sebastian_> ya i did that hehe
[19:30] <sebastian_> i tries to connect but it fails
[19:30] <sebastian_> validating authentication and then it fails
[19:31] <BluesKaj> do you still have an ethernet connected ?
[19:31] <sebastian_> no i only have the wireless usb connected
[19:31] <BluesKaj> did you type in the password you chose for the router etc

[19:40] <BluesKaj>  and of course the the stongest signal is yours /
[19:40] <sebastian_> yep its at 100%
[19:41] <pteague> well, using sftp in kate seemed to be making a difference, but considering my ssh connection keeps getting stuck i think my problems were more an issue with the $#@ wireless here at the office... changed tcp keepalive settings & hopefully that will solve a number of problems

[20:36] <DFarmer> Hi
[20:37] <DFarmer> I've just installed Kubuntu on a laptop with a 1280x800 screen. However, I cannto set it to that in the system settings, as the only options are for non-widescreen aspect ratio. How can I fix this? dpkg-reconfigure does nothing and I need someone to help me step by step
[20:41] <hellhound> i am not able to get my logitech quickcam stx to work in kopete, however it does work in cheese.  when I run kopete through the terminal I get the errors: http://pastebin.com/m3f7a9467
[20:43] <DFarmer> Anybody? I need a solution quickly..
[20:45] <Dragnslcr> It's pretty quiet in here today, so I doubt you'll get a quick answer
[20:45] <DFarmer> Please?
[20:46] <BluesKaj> depends on the Q

[21:21] <snikker> hi, which is the best vga card for kubuntu?
[21:21] <jonathan__> hello!
[21:22] <BluesKaj> snikker, most newer nvidia cards are well supported
[21:23] <jonathan__> I would like to learn a bit of latex to manage my school-work at home better. I downloaded Kile and pasted an basic project i found in an official latex-tutorial. When i select "build", i get many errors i don't really understand. shouldn't a sample project work without any problems? Do i have to configure kile somehow? thanks in advance!
[21:23] <snikker> BluesKaj: is better ati or nvidia? because i've got an nvidia 6600gt, but sometime it's very slow with kde4...
[21:25] <BluesKaj> snikker, at the moment nvidia  has good support.
[21:25] <BluesKaj> ati , not so much
[21:25] <brassmaster> can anyone tell me how to update to the karmic alpha?
[21:26] <snikker> BluesKaj: did you mean with newer cards?
[21:26] <brassmaster> is it a question better asked at #ubuntu+1?
[21:27] <BluesKaj> 6600gt should work well
[21:27] <BluesKaj> !upgrade
[21:28] <snikker> BluesKaj: well i don't know... with kde3.5 was very very fast... now with kde4 is slow...
[21:28] <brassmaster> BluesKaj: Yes, that would be good advice if what I wanted to do was to upgrade to a stable version of Kubuntu.
[21:30] <BluesKaj> brassmaster, well you can ask in ubuntu+1 , the only difference will be the name jaunty will be subbed with karmic
[21:31] <jado> hi, i've installed kgrubeditor with sudo apt-get install kgrubeditor but i can't launch it (command not found)
[21:32] <BluesKaj> brassmaster, http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/karmic/alpha5
[21:35] <Zeik> If you are having speed issues with composition in KDE 4 try turning off the DRI acceleration for desktop effects.
[21:37] <snikker> Zeik: how can i do that?
[21:38] <snikker> Zeik:  "load dri" is already commented in xorg.conf
[21:40] <Zeik> System settings menu> Desktop> Advanced tab at the top.
[21:40] <Zeik> Under that you can find an option for direct rendering.
[21:40] <Zeik> You might get a performance improvement and you might not.
[21:40] <Zeik> I got a major improvement when i did it.
[21:41] <Zeik> Are you using an Intel VGA chipset?
[21:41] <BluesKaj> snikker, some are advising to disable xorg.conf and let the kernel module and hal handle the video
[21:41] <BluesKaj> dunno if itwill work on your older nvidia card tho
[21:42] <snikker> Zeik: i've enable the direct rendering... i've got an nvidia card...
[21:43] <snikker> BluesKaj: i'll try also to disable xorg.conf...
[21:44] <BluesKaj> snikker , mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/karmic/alpha
[21:44] <BluesKaj> oops wrong paste
[21:44] <Dragnslcr> You fail
[21:44] <BluesKaj> hehe
[21:44] <snikker> :)
[21:45] <BluesKaj>  damn
[21:45] <BluesKaj> snikker , mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf  /etc/X11/xorg.conf.bak
[21:46] <snikker> BluesKaj:  ok
[21:46] <BluesKaj> this way you still have a backup if needed
[21:47] <snikker> BluesKaj: now i try and reboot...
[21:47] <BluesKaj> no need , justrelogin
[21:47] <snikker> but i don't need to reload the X server?
[21:48] <BluesKaj> reboot if you wish
[21:49] <snikker> ok
[21:52] <Zerg2000> Does anyone have KDE 4.3.x and experience slower log in? About 10 seconds more in splash screen when KDE logo is displayed.
[21:56] <jado> where can i find kgrubeditor in the kde system settings?
[22:04] <BluesKaj> !grub | jado
[22:04] <jado> BluesKaj: there is nothing about kgrubeditor in this page
[22:04] <jado> kgrubeditor is installed, i just don't know how to open it in the system settings. It is said on internet that it is a system settings module but i can't find it
[22:05] <BluesKaj> jado alt+f2 kgrubeditor
[22:06] <jado> BluesKaj: ouch ... i tried that before i came it was not working ;o
[22:06] <jado> hm i think i have to restart the computer
[22:06] <BluesKaj> Riddell, is there DOS attack going on ?
[22:07] <BluesKaj> jado whynot just edit grub yourself
[22:16] <jado> BluesKaj: nothing happens when i alt f2 kgrubeditor
[22:17] <BluesKaj> jada alt+f2
[22:17] <jado> BluesKaj: i know
[22:19] <BluesKaj> whynot just edit grub yourself , dunno which grub you have , legacy or grub2 , legacy has a file /boot/grub/menu.lst
[22:20] <jado> BluesKaj: yes i will but that's frustrating
[22:24] <jado> just a question: when i upgrade linux, i have old grub entries that stays, do i have to keep them, or are they totally useless?
[22:25] <BluesKaj> jado if you're just trying to get rid of old kernel listings you can do that by removing the linux-image with the corresponding numbers in your fav package manager
[22:25] <calvin_> hey guys quick question : how do i install CHROME 64 bit on my kubuntu?
[22:25] <gobnuts> Hi. Is there a way to make plasma-desktop the default shell instead of plasma-netbook on Kubuntu-netbook-remic karmic alpha5?
[22:26] <jado> BluesKaj: i delete linux-image, linux-generic, and linux-restricted-module of the old kernel ?
[22:26] <jado> linux-headers instead of linux-generic i mean
[22:32] <BluesKaj> jado I've removed both
[22:33] <BluesKaj> brb

[22:44] <asm`> nothing works
[22:44] <asm`> The package list needs to be rebuilt.

[22:44] <maco> please watch your languages

[22:45] <maco> there should be a refresh button somewhere on it

[23:00] <TD-Linux> hey, whoever decided that Konqueror will be default web browser, thank you :D
[23:08] <Warlock> anyone have an idea on how to get k3b to copy a protected dvd even tho I've added the restricted extras ???
[23:11] <TD-Linux> Warlock, I'm not sure that's within K3B's abilities
[23:11] <TD-Linux> how about K9Copy?
[23:11] <Warlock> Has been before
[23:11] <TD-Linux> do you have libdvdcss installed?
[23:11] <Warlock> Yes I do
[23:13] <BluesKaj> !kubuntu-restricted-extras
[23:13] <Warlock> I installed that BluesKaj
[23:13] <Warlock> Still no go
[23:14] <TD-Linux> I don't think kubuntu-restricted-extras includes libdvdcss
[23:14] <Warlock> It does TD-Linux
[23:14] <BluesKaj> nope,but it's also a requirement for some media
[23:15] <BluesKaj> they used to be separate apps
[23:15] <Warlock> Now they are 1 app
[23:15] <Warlock> When you download the restricted extras it is all part of it
[23:16] <TD-Linux> I'm so very tempted to install karmic on my "production machine"
[23:16] <BluesKaj> well, i haven't installed anything media since edgy, upgrades only
[23:16] <TD-Linux> Warlock, err what?
[23:17] <TD-Linux> you can play dvds right?
[23:17] <Warlock> The libdvdcss is part of the restricted extras that I had downloaded
[23:17] <TD-Linux> how stable is karmic right now?
[23:17] <Warlock> Yes I can play then just fine without installing anything extra
[23:17] <TD-Linux> Warlock, OK, didn't know that was in ubuntu repositories now
[23:17] <TD-Linux> DVDs should not be able to play without libdvdcss...
[23:17] <Warlock> It is now...One of the upgrades
[23:17] <BluesKaj> TD-Linux, i'd be careful about that , karmic is having some graphics and sound issues depending on your hardware
[23:18] <TD-Linux> so you must have it somehow :) so I dunno what the issue is with k3b now
[23:18] <Warlock> I can play then right outta the box with k3b..No issues at all
[23:18] <TD-Linux> I need to burn alpha 5 to test
[23:18] <TD-Linux> BluesKaj, I'm currently on 173 nvidia drivers (ancient I know)
[23:19] <BluesKaj> TD-Linux, they work in karmic from all reports, it's the intel stuff that's still iffy
[23:19] <TD-Linux> what about HDA Intel sound?
[23:19] <TD-Linux> it worked fine in alpha 4 livecd though I couldn't adjust volume it seemed
[23:19] <Warlock> My neighbor just installed it with no issues with intel drivers
[23:19] <BluesKaj> it seems to ok , but pulseaudio is giving some ppl probs
[23:20] <Warlock> Ony issue with it that we can find is a dual boot vista machine will not play blue rays correctly..Everything else is fine
[23:20] <gorgonizer> I installed Karmic Alpha 4 on my home box, and all is fine, don't have Pulseaudio installed mind..
[23:21] <dorkface> Hi all.  Has anyone here been succesfull in setting up a connection to a wins server and getting wins name resolution using Kubuntu?
[23:22] <BluesKaj> gorgonizer, yeah I have a c-media soundcard that runs fine on the kernel module and alsa without PA installed
[23:23] <BluesKaj> <--- running karmic alpha 5 atm
[23:23] <Warlock> Thanks for the help people
[23:23] <gorgonizer> BluesKaj: A while ago you indicated that uninstalling PA was the best thing to do on KDE, and since I am yet to have an issue without it, I am yet to see the point of it, despite my Gnome-loving housemates..
[23:23] <BluesKaj> yup :)
[23:24] <dorkface> BluesKaj: are you getting the boot times that, I belive, canonical claimed?
[23:24] <BluesKaj> gorgonizer, of course that depends on your HW
[23:25] <BluesKaj> dorkface, dunno what are the claims ?
[23:26] <gorgonizer> BluesKaj: Nvidia HDA and a Geforce 7600 GS gfx card..
[23:26] <gorgonizer> all working fine, even runs the 185 Nvidia drivers.. :)
[23:27] <BluesKaj> the soundcard is what I meant , nvidia sound cards seem tobe fine
[23:30] <BluesKaj> dorkface, seems it takes upwards of 30secs for my boot up
[23:49] <DWonderly> was/is there a Netbook ver of KDE in either 9.04 or 8.10?
[23:49] <DWonderly> Or, will 9.10 be the first shot at it from kubuntu?
