saebbihelloe.. are there any known problems with firefox and kubuntu 9.04 ?01:09
saebbibecause i installed the firefox package via apt, and its not working properly01:09
panos4everwhat do u mean01:10
saebbiit was basically the first package i installed on a fresh kubuntu install01:10
saebbiwhen i enter a URL, say google.com, then enter a search term and click search, it proceeds to the result page01:11
saebbibut the URL in the adress bar remains just "www.google.com"01:11
saebbiand i can't click the "back" button01:11
panos4everoh i had the same problem01:11
panos4everthen i downloaded an other browser01:12
panos4everbased on firefox01:12
saebbiiceweasel?01:12
panos4everyep01:12
panos4everthen i installed firefox again01:12
saebbiso you purged firefox first, then installed iceweasel, then installed firefox again?01:13
panos4everyes but i dont think that was the problem01:13
panos4everi just downloaded the .deb01:13
panos4evericeweasel has nothing to do01:14
panos4everbut it is based on firefox01:14
panos4everso uninstall firefox01:14
panos4everand download the .deb01:14
panos4everor apt again01:14
saebbii uninstalled and apted again already01:15
saebbiinstalling from the .deb shouldnt make a difference but then again its linux :D01:15
saebbii'll give it a try :)01:15

pedahzurA while back, I remember seeing a utility on Windows where you would hit Ctrl, and it would do a little concentric circle thing around your mouse cursor. I sometimes "lose" my mouse cursor, so that would be helpful. Anything like that available in KDE?02:07
heinkel_112pedahzur: in Kde3 there used to be a pair of eyes that you could put on your task bar. The eyes would roll in the direction of the mouse pointer as you moved the pointer.02:13
heinkel_112not sure if there is a kde4 equivalent, I dont use it anymore02:13
pedahzurheinkel_112: Thanks!02:15
pedahzurheinkel_112: I'm still using KDE 3, so I'll have to see if I can dig it up.02:15
heinkel_112pedahzur: i think it was called KDEyes or something like that02:16
cuznti want to capture video from my sony8 track and record it on my hard drive. any idea which program to use?02:16
blackvdI'm experiencing an odd problem. I have Ubuntu Jaunty installed and I recently install kde4.3. Frist time i ran it everything worked fine but after reboot my nvidia drivers quit working. Under Hardware drivers nothing shows up?02:16
blackvdwhat gui tool does kde use for drivers?02:16
cuzntkde>settings>nvidia02:17
cuzntit has its own special tool02:17
blackvddoesnt show up for me02:17
cuznt!nvidia02:18
ubottuFor Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto02:18
blackvdperhaps it didnt get installed. what is the package name?02:18
cuznttry kde>system>hardware drivers02:18
cuznti got no idea package name02:19
blackvdthats what i was trying to use and it shows no drivers available02:19
blackvdalthough i know i have 190 drivers installed02:19
blackvdin gnome the drivers worked fine02:19

blackvdim on 64 bit and getting a 404, dont recall having problems before02:32
blackvdim confused? the nvidia 185 libvdpau is installed ...i cant uninstall it without removing kde yet no drivers show up in hardware drivers! how can this be?02:34
TD-LinuxI get 404 as well02:40
blackvdok good not just my imagination02:41
solifugusWhat's the latest version of kubuntu?02:46
solifugus9.04?02:46
solifugusyes.. i see it is..02:47
solifugusHow do you all connect to wireless networks?  I've been using the Network Managment KDE control module..02:47
kaddisolifugus: I've been using wicd, has been working great02:52
blackvdso jockey-gtk shows my drivers yet i cant install due to broken packages02:56
blackvdyet apt-get update show none or synaptic02:56
solifuguskaddi: the problem I have with KDE's Network Manager is that there's no button to make it connect on demand.  I click the check to connect automatically and it does.. but only sometimes at that moment.. It's usually a long wait or else rebooting to make it work.03:00
kaddiyou might try to set it up without a gui03:00
solifuguskaddi: seriously.. it wasn't easy to find either.. its definitely not user friendly03:00
solifuguskaddi: yeah.. i don't actually know how.03:00
Marko38Can anyone help with repartitiong my drive? ubuntu to be honest was not my first choice of OS, it got me back online after my hard drive failed, trouble is I now wish to revert to windows but when i run fdisk it hangs no matter what option I select, I can't even view partition info..03:21
Sir_Brizzis anyone using Karmic?03:23
Sir_BrizzI'm getting black bars on the taskbar and the corners of some windows03:23

SJrIf I boot my computer up, with my ExpressCard (the replacement for cardbus) installed, ubuntu recognizes it. If I do not have it installed on bootup, I don't seem to be able to get it to load. The module is sky2, and it doesn't seem to depend on any other module04:12
shrey_Anybody know how can i give my kubuntu more drive space..i have installed it in windows, now i want to increase its size. can i do it.04:19
hellhoundis there a way with KDE's kontact to sync google gmail contacts. I have tried setting it as a LDAP using GCALDaemon but works horribly04:20
kaddi_how can I print through commandline? I'm accessing a pc per SSH and would like to print a pdf-file, while printing 2 pages on one.04:24

herenbdyhello, does kubuntu have a Add / Remove applications app that works like gnome's? (it lists whole applications instead of individual packages)04:27
NutCobblerherenbdy: "Adept"04:32
NutCobblerherenbdy: The program is standard on Kubuntu..04:33
NutCobblerherenbdy: Oh, you are looking for something simpier..04:34
herenbdyyeah, for my friend who switched from gnome to kde04:34
NutCobblerherenbdy: Wait, Adept is the simple program..04:34
herenbdyknow the name of gnome's Add/Remove app by chance?04:34
herenbdyAdept seems to show individual packages like kpackagekit04:35
NutCobblerSynaptic?04:35
NutCobblerLook under the browse icon.. All the programs are categorized into program type.04:35
herenbdybrowse under synaptic, or adept?04:36
herenbdyNutCobbler: ^04:37
NutCobblerOpen adept.. Its the easier program. There is a binocular icon and you can choose a category like "Office" then on the right you choose what you want to install etc.04:37
herenbdystill not like gnome's version :/04:38
kaddi_isn't synaptic gnome's version?04:38
NutCobblerI am looking for the source for a KDE toy called ktuberling. I have checked through the websvn.kde.org and have been unable to find any subdirectory holding it. Where do I find this?04:39
herenbdysynaptic is equivalent to kpackagekit04:40
herenbdyin gnome there's a menu entry that has a much simpler interface, that groups things by full applications, instead of by package04:41
herenbdyAdd/Remove Programs04:41
NutCobblerThere is a new package management system coming out for k/ubuntu in the near future that is supposed to be modeled on the Apple iPhone App Store.04:42
NutCobblerIts going to be called like, "AppCenter".04:42
herenbdyfiring up an ubuntu VM just to find out the app name, xD04:43
herenbdygnome-app-install04:44
NutCobblerhttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/SoftwareStore04:45
NutCobblerPackages affected: aptoncd, computer-janitor, computer-janitor-gtk, gdebi, gnome-app-install, software-properties-gtk, software-store, synaptic, update-manager04:45
herenbdyoh nevermind04:46
herenbdyrunning adept from the menus ggives me the ncie view04:46
Korlishey all04:46
herenbdyrunning adept from the command-line give me the KPackageKit-like view04:47
NutCobblerHi Korlis. Do you know about KDE sources well?04:47
Korlisso hows the newest kde working out for everyone?04:47
Korlisim no expert, but if you have a question i'll see if i can answer it04:47

Sir_Brizzgyah04:48
Sir_BrizzI'm running Karmic Alpha 5 and getting black bars and boxes all over the place04:48
Sir_Brizzlik some transdparency going on that my turdface intel gma can't handle04:48
Korlisnutcobblker, is that the potato guy game?04:49
NutCobblerYeah!04:49
NutCobblerKorlis, I want to study the source for the game!04:50
Korlishmm, let me check04:50
NutCobblerKorlis, Its like hidden well. I've looked a couple of times for it.04:51
shrey_Anybody know how can i give my kubuntu more drive space..i have installed it in windows, now i want to increase its size. can i do it.04:51
NutCobblershrey, did you use a VM?04:51
shrey_no...i received DVD of kubuntu so there was option in that install in windows..so i selected that04:52
shrey_i gave it 6GB now i want to give it more..as 6 GB is very less.04:53
Korlishey nutcobbler, you got msn or yahoo?04:56
Korlisi was doing C++ a whie ago and sitll have the source to ktuberling in my home folder, so i can jst send it to you04:56
NutCobblerKorlis, like an instant messager? Neither.. I'm in Linux.. Do you know where the latest version is on the Internet?04:57
Korlisits just a text file though, i don't have the pictures or other files that go with it04:58
Korlisso if you want to compile your own version you'll have to find taht on your own04:58
NutCobblershrey, I'm looking into your installation type. I think you boot to Kubuntu. I found: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CDROMUbuntuInstallationFromWindows04:58
NutCobblerKorlis, its a single file?04:59
Korlisyeah, im pretty sure im missing some modules, but if you jts want to study some code its ok04:59
Korliswait a sec, i think a google search brought up something05:00
Korlishttp://www.cs.washington.edu/research/projects/se/www/kde/reuse_patterns/source_code/ktuberling.src/classes/ktuberling%27TopLevel.html05:00
NutCobblershrey, I also found: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/InstallerForWindows05:01
Korlisi prefer python honestly, i never use coding for more than quick dirty tasks that i need to be able to perform on any pc05:01
NutCobblershrey, does your install sound like the latter link?05:01
Korlissomething else going on whie i was looking on google and my home partition?05:02
KorlisNutCobbler, did that link give you what you were looking for?05:03
NutCobblerKorlis, yeah. I was hoping to get a full compilable source download.05:04
Korlisi'll see if i can find a tarball for you05:04
shrey_i m reading it...tell u soon.05:05
NutCobblerKorlis, I noticed on the KDE site that they intend to go to GIT. I haven't played with that. Could it be hiding there?05:05
Korlishmm, ik haven't used GIT in a while05:06
Korliscould be05:06
shrey_no did'nt find anything in it..05:08
NutCobblerKorlis, I found something: http://packages.debian.org/sid/ktuberling05:09
NutCobblerKorlis, I am downloading a tar right now, but for future reference, I assume that the game is hiding somewhere in the KDE versioning system..05:09
Korlisi was just about to check deb repos for a tarball, i can't find it on kde's site05:10
shrey_NutCobbler: i installed adept that u referred just a while ago, and i m installing one program using it, but it is also downloading many other packages with it. now if when i will uninstall it will it remove those packages also or the single file.05:11
NutCobblerIs it that these projects like Debian, KDE, Kubuntu are growing so quickly that there components are poorly organized.05:12
Korlisif you remove it then any dependencies that are no longer needed should be removed05:12
joshuahello05:12
Korlishttp://websvn.kde.org/trunk/KDE/kdegames/ktuberling/05:13
Korlisbadabing05:13
NutCobblershrey, the dependencies don't go automatically. I haven't worried about removing extra files that have lost their dependents..05:13
Korlisapt-get autoremove will get rid of extra dependencies lying around05:13
NutCobblerKorlis, Nice one. I'd like to figure out why it is so hard to look something like this up!05:14
shrey_NutCobbler: but then they will consume my disk space ?05:14
NutCobblershrey, Library dependencies could go up to maybe 2 meg? I think that's insignificant now-a-days.05:15
shrey_NutCobbler: it is installing many docs and perls and many more thing right now..in the starting it showed that it will consume 36MBs but the program which i installed that is Googlizer was in KBs only..than what is taking the space..05:15
NutCobblershrey, I programmed and played on a computer that had a 20 meg hard drive in the late 80s.05:16
KorlisShrey, i changed from kde to gnome when kde went 4.x, ive been doing dist-upgrade since feisty, and the unused libraries and deps are not even noticable05:16
Korlisthough i am planning to do a clean isntall of karmic koala this october so i can switch back to KDE now that it's gotten better05:18
shrey_Korlis: KDE has better looking and i like it..that's why  i use that...05:19
Korlisi liked kde in it's 3.5 era, i didn't like 4.x, but ive heard its gotten awesome, so i'm gonna do a clean install of karmic koala when its released05:20
NutCobblerGnome and KDE co-exist easily. I installed Ubuntu once, didn't care for Gnome and did a KDE install from inside Gnome. After a reboot KDE was ready and working.05:21
Korlisyep, thats what i did to switch from KDE05:22
Korlisbut a clean install will allow me to switch to ext4 without worrying about old files still being ext3, and will also allow a clean install of KDE 4.305:23
shrey_But KDE is less stable i think than Gnome..05:24
Korliswas, the newest release is pretty darn stable05:24
shrey_kubuntu shows me many errors ..sometimes in ktorrent sometimes in dolphin05:25
KorlisKubuntu isnt the best showcasing of KDE, which is supposed to change in karmic05:25
Korlisright now, id say one of the best KDE distros is Fedora05:26
KorlisOpenSuse is great with KDE too05:26
Korlisbut if your only judge of KDE is Kubuntu, then you aren't seeing it's full potential, they have badly implemented it05:26
Korlisbut as i said, riumor says they've showed KDE more love with karmic, so im gonna try it again05:27
kuttansKDE with karmic is great05:28
kuttansa number of bugs are done but still some exists05:28
kuttansfor example empathy....the messenger is not much good to work with kde05:28
kuttanscan anyone throw some light on ubuntu update problems lately05:29
Korliswhat problems are those05:30
kuttansit get struck when downloading packages and it take ages to download even the .bin files05:30
shrey_actully i m a new user..first time installed kubuntu on my system05:30
kuttansin past i used to put update and relax...but now i gotta watch it constantly....bcoz it struck at any level and never restart the download automatically05:30
Korlissounds liek your having internet problems05:30
NutCobblershrey, I looked up what you have installed. You are running Kubuntu from an image file in c:\ubuntu . Since it is a real file system in a file (in Windows on a Windows partition) you'd need to get that file accessed as a file inside of another Linux boot. You likely have NTFS as C: so a boot cd is out of the question to resize. You do have the option of creating a second image you can mount for your personal files inside of05:30
NutCobbleryour Kubuntu system but all of that seems like a lot of work compared to a native install!05:30
kuttansbut my other things work great05:31
kuttanseven a file of 2 gb downloaded nicely05:31
Korlisi haven't had that trouble, and have never heard of it kuttans05:31
kuttansi dont know it started after one update05:32
Korliscould be the servers you're downloading from05:32
kuttansi think one week or before that05:32
kuttansbut i put it download it from the best server05:32
Korlisshrey, youcoming from windows?05:32
kuttanshey i got windows 7 yday and installed in vbox05:32
shrey_ya korlis me from windows..05:32
Korliswhat are you trying to download kuttans?05:32
kuttansthey done the same gimmicks they did with vista05:32
kuttansim trying to do apt-get update05:33
shrey_my laptop is slow so i still use XP05:33
Korlishow long you been using linux?05:33
kuttansand i already restrated the download process 3 times05:33
shrey_this is my first time...05:33
shrey_i m just learning how to use it..05:33
kuttansits great shrey, i feel empowered by linux05:33
Korliswell then welcome shrey, you'll love it05:33
Korlisjust to let you know, if you're running from wubi, it will be slower05:34
shrey_i view screen shots of karmic koala..its same like kubuntu 9.0405:34
kuttansdont loose your heart if you get any problems, arise, awake, die not till the goal is reached05:34
Korlisyeah shrey, the eye candy is pretty much bar none, they've been woprking under the hood05:34
kuttansno shrey its bcoz of its in the beta stage still05:34
kuttansand moreover ubuntu do the tinsel work at the last stage of release05:35
Korlisalpha 5 has made huge strides in KDE usability in kubuntu05:35
shrey_i have kubuntu 9.04 ...and installed all the update..05:35
kuttansgood to use that as it is the stable version so far05:36
kuttansand try karmic after october05:36
Korlisand shrey, you might get stuck on some things, but i think you'll find that the linux community offers a but more support that microsoft does05:36
Korlisbit05:36
shrey_ya sure..and i find this IRC very much supportive..05:36
kuttanslinux community is the one i found more helpful than anything05:36
shrey_whenever i have any problem u guys always help..its like live helpdesk05:37
Korlisand if we're not here, the forums got all you need05:37
kuttansfor example i formatted my laptop 50 times to get used to this linux05:37
Korliswow kuttans, i hope you have backups, cuz you're hard drive won't last long that way05:37
kuttansyeah............now i have full confidence that i can get back anything i had before05:37
kuttansi did that bcoz i wanna try my level best to learn things without much help05:38
Korlisshrey, one thing, when you get full into linux, one tool i can not live without is remastersys, you have to learn a but of command line for it, but it is invaluable05:38
kuttansso whenever i try new things i used to break up the file system beyond recovery05:38
kuttansand i was a hard core windower before i came to linux....05:39
kuttansit all started when i read about linus torvald05:40
Korlisi have a live dvd lying around with all the applications i use pre-installed, and if i have to reinstall all i have to worry about is customizing the look, becauyse all my apps are right there05:40
kuttansanyway have a nice time with linux shrey05:40
calvinare there any good WEB CAM programs for KDE? gnome has cheese05:40
Korlisthanks to remastersys, which let me create a live dvd of my entire OS05:40
kuttansi do a full back up with simple backup and i just replace it whenever i do a reformat05:40
kuttansand i get back the whole system along with my look05:40
Korlisi believe you can save personal settings with remastersys, i just chose not to for time sake05:41
kuttansok guys time to get back to work..........bye Korlis, i will check about the server where from im upgrading05:41
Korlislater05:41
kuttansc you later05:41
Korlisand having a live dvd to use my apps from is cool too05:41
Korliscalvin, let me see05:42
Korlisfor starters05:42
Korliswebkam05:42
Korlisdefault kde webcam app05:42
calvincouldnt find it in apt-install05:43
calvinnm its webcam05:43
calvininstalling it right now...05:43
Korlisyou can also use vlc with a webcam05:45
Sir_Brizzwell I think Karma is still not really useable05:45
KorlisFile - Open Capture Device -choose the webcam05:45
Sir_Brizzthought it would be further along for some reason :p05:45
Korlisits alpha, what do you want?05:46
Korlisits not supposed to be usable at this point05:46
Sir_Brizza working network manager for one thing ;)05:46
Sir_Brizzbut yeah05:46
Sir_BrizzI thought it should be close enough to release, but no it's not05:46
jasaHmm, i have one question quick btw towards the library thing on kubuntu, is it as i think that "/usr/lib64" is the 64bit library or windows style that it's 32bit compability library ?05:46
jasaAs i threw 64bit flash on there and it works fine but kaffeine wants to install own flash for some reason ... ?05:47
jasa9.10 version at use btw.05:47
Korlisits the 64 biut libs, i belive if you need 32 bit compat you need to install libao32 or something like that05:47
Korlisi don;t remember the exact library name, i still use 32 bit OS05:48
Korlismy laptop is old, still has 32 bit cpu, and my printer only works in linux with a 32 bit OS05:48
jasaKorlis: well i can understand totally you even if you had newer system as well.05:48
calvini think kde 4.3.1 has improved tremendously05:49
calvinits actually usable05:49
jasaKorlis: the overal gain isn't that obivious as some folks would consider.05:49
calvinim on 64 bit right now05:49
Korlisthe boot time is about 3 seconds less05:49
Korlishonestly, upgrading to ext4 gains you much more performance than just going 64 bit05:49
jasacalvin: i agree on that, with one exeption that is kaffeine for television purposes it seems they took network broadcasting features and additional plugin things away from kde4 release.05:49
Korlisjasa, install miro05:50
jasaim actually thinking on compiling ffmpeg for vdpau support but one thing im still missing on that i should look is that is there external supprt on own compiled ffmpeg libraries really.05:50
Sir_Brizz9.10 has weird black boxes on everything for me05:50
jasaOr perhaps i should just trust the normal xv in that case and save alot time.05:51
jasaSir_Brizz: what graphics card ?05:51
Korlisdo you have an intel gpu brizz?05:51
jasaSir_Brizz: or driver at use.05:51
Sir_Brizzyes05:51
Sir_Brizzit's a crappy intel gma05:51
Sir_Brizzit's a moot point because I can't get my wifi going on 9.10 so I'm going back to Jaunty for now05:51
Korlisyeah, the new x server doesn't work well with intel gpu's05:52
Sir_Brizzin Jaunty before I was getting all kinds of garbage on the screen05:52
jasaWell i think i'll trust the normal packages in this case and abandon the current plan i had, but i need to restart cause of new kernel ... cya. =)05:52
Sir_Brizzlike residual garbage from windows that were open and now closed05:52
Sir_Brizzall I can figure is that it's crappy intel crap05:53
NutCobblerKorlis, Which x server?05:53
Korlisyeah, it is05:53
Korlisthe version of x.org they're using in karmic05:53
Sir_Brizzwell hopefully they figure out a way to fix it by release05:53
Sir_Brizzhardly need another reason to go back to gnome05:53
Korlisnvidia might be proprietary, bt it works well05:53
Sir_Brizz*cough* working network manager *cough*05:54
Sir_Brizzyeah05:54
NutCobblerKorlis, I have a laptop with an Intel graphics chipset. What should happen when I upgrade to 9.10 (from 8.10)?05:54
Sir_BrizzI wish I had an nvidia in here05:54
Sir_Brizzall I care about is it works, I don't care about FOSS/proprietary/whatever05:54
Korlishopefully nothing nutcobbler, they're supposed to have it fixe by release05:54
NutCobblerk05:54
Sir_Brizz(not in this case I mean, but as a general rule)05:54
Korlisyeah i agree, if proprietary works better than free, thats wat i'll use, which is why i use nvidia05:55
Sir_Brizzyou'd think somebody would just fix the intel drivers since they are open source05:55
Sir_Brizzthey are really terrible05:55
Korlisif windows worked better than linux id use it05:55
Korlisintel gpus suck anyway05:56
Sir_Brizzyes05:56
Sir_Brizzbut they are common in laptops these days05:56
Sir_Brizzsadly05:56
KorlisATI is good, and has open specs, once we get good open source drivers for it i might change over05:56
Sir_BrizzIntel GMA is pretty much the worst thing Intel has ever done05:57
Sir_Brizzand I'm including that time they left the math co processor off the Penitums05:57
Sir_BrizzPentiums*05:57
Sir_Brizzand they couldn't even do simple math05:57
Korlisintel wants the whole cake, they're not happy with cpu, they want gpu, and apu - zpu05:58
Sir_Brizzlol05:58
Sir_Brizzthey still have a huge market share with GMA despite the fact that nobody that has to utilize them likes them at all05:58
KorlisI also prefer AMD over Intel btw ;-)05:58
Sir_Brizzme too :p05:58
Korlisanyway, i gotta work tomorrow, so im gona take off, see you later05:59
Sir_BrizzAMD has been trying to go too high end for my tastes lately though05:59

unitypunkbigjools:  i JUST formatted it.09:53
unitypunkit should have any stuff on it.09:53
eagles0513875ok normally though after a format you will never get the full 160 youll get about 152 or so09:53
eagles0513875unitypunk: its there for when fsck runs and finds corrupted file entries09:53
bigjoolsso there's also going to be space reserved for rroot09:53
unitypunkno. there isnt.09:54
unitypunkits a storage drive.09:54

kblinhi folks21:35
kblinI've recently switched from kubuntu 8.04 to 9.04. Is KDE4 enough of a ressource hog to explain that my system now feels like moving though jello, or is there something I can fix?21:37
harjot_where do i find startup logs?21:39
Walexkblin: there are mixed reports on KDE4. Some think it is faster, some slower.21:39
Walexkblin: but it could be that your graphics card does not support acceleration for all the cute new effects.21:40
Walexharjot_: depends what you mean by "startup logs". try '/var/log/dmesg' and ~/.xsession' for example for two totally different tpes.21:40
kblinWalex: I've got desktop effects disabled. but e.g. changing tabs in konsole takes between half a second and a second, depending on how much text is on the console switched to21:41
harjot_  /var/log21:41
Walexwell, first thing run 'vmstat 1' in a Konsole and check whether there is lots of block IO or CPU usage.21:42
Walexkblin: if you have an nVidia card with the proprietary nVidia driver it used to have a large performance issue with AA fonts (RENDER extension accel)21:43
kblinno, I've got a radeon mobility x300.. this is a thinkpad r5221:44
kblinI can get the CPU usage to spike to 70% when switching konsole tabs21:44
Walexkblin: the 70% is regrettably pretty Kommon :-)21:46
kblinugh21:47
kblintime to look for a lighter desktop env then21:47
Walexkblin: anyhow, not clear what to ask you to check. However #1 think then: make sure X is not using the "vesa" driver.21:47
Walexkblin: same on most. painting screens is CPU bound. Some do it a bit better though.21:47
biovirusebovine: i should install this??->> flashplugin-installer21:47
ebovinebiovirus: Yes.21:49
kblinWalex: I'm pretty sure it should be the radeon driver21:49
Walexkblin: check with 'sudo grep /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers /var/log/Xorg.0.log21:49
biovirusebovine: anything else i have to install?21:49
ebovinebiovirus: It will resolve the dependencies for you.21:50

biovirusebovine: what can i do ¿?21:54
* kblin goes to check if gnome-terminal is more responsive21:55
Walexkblin: check whether 'xterm' is more responsive.21:55
kblinthat'd be my next stop21:55
kblinbut gnome-terminal has tabs I can switch21:55
Walexkblin: more precisely check that with 'xterm -fn' and 'xterm -fa' so you know whether the issue is AA related.21:55
kblingnome-terminal is fine, and use way less CPU21:57
ebovinebiovirus: Is the audio still not working?21:58
ebovinebiovirus: And did you close all your browser windows and re-open them?21:58
biovirusebovine: yes but it doesnt work21:59
biovirus:S21:59
Walexkblin: then it may be the dreaded RENDER performance bug.21:59
kblinWalex: I take that's on launchpad?21:59
ebovinebiovirus: I hate to say it, but you might try rebooting.  Don't load up any apps when you reboot except your browser and give it a shot.21:59
Walexkblin: but check out the various Konsole rendering options -- maybe there is one enabled that uses a slow bit of the "radeon" driver.22:00
Walexkblin: that is part of general KDE lore, nothing Ubuntu specific.22:00
biovirusebovine: but how can i reboot without open apps if the kubuntu starts all apps i've open when i shutdown?22:01
n00bjabiis it normal for a fresh install kubuntu to have graphical glitches in a lot of menus, and have horrible performance overall...22:01
kblinn00bjabi: I'm seeing that as well22:01
=== n00bjabi is now known as zvonkorp
zvonkorpi thought it was because i've been awake for 4 days straight - but something's up...22:02
zvonkorpugh.. what the heck22:02
ebovinebiovirus: If you close them before you reboot they won't open again when you log in.  KDE attempts to restore your session when you log back in.22:02
zvonkorpso is this... fixable? or should i just go back to ubuntu22:02
kblinzvonkorp: Walex just gave me a good hint I'm currently trying22:02
biovirusok, i'll try it, see you in a minute22:02
zvonkorpis it hardware related?22:02
kblinWalex: seems like turning off font smoothing makes konsole look more ugly, but at least i can now type without witing for my text to appear22:03
Walexkblin: yes, that'd RENDER all right. Weird though I thought it only happened with nVidia drivers.22:03
zvonkorphow would i go about updating my hardware drivers then22:04
Walexkblin: you can get nice fonts that don't need font smoothing. if you enable the bytecode interpreter in FreeType.22:04
kblinyeah, I can cope with that22:04
zvonkorpi r new to linux, but this laptop ran vista/7 great, and had no problems with ubuntu - is this just how much more strenuous KDE is?22:04
Walexkblin: I am one of those that detest font smoothing as it makes fonts bolder and fuzzier.22:04
kblinWalex: I'm not too fond of dejavu sans either22:05
Walexzvonkorp: no, KDE tends to be farly efficient, but some effects stress unoptimized parts of the video card driver.22:05
kblinzvonkorp: for me, I seem to have fixed it by turning off font smoothing22:05
Walexkblin: Actually DejaVu renders pretty well, it i fairly well hinted.22:05
Walexkblin: but to enable the hints you need the bytcode-enabled FreeType library.22:06
kblinright22:06
zvonkorpdisable anti aliasing on fonts?22:06
zvonkorpi did that, it just looks like balls now - the performance seems to be unchanged...22:06

ebovinebiovirus: I'm still here.22:11

ebovineHave you tried audio with any other flash application?22:11

=== |GuS| is now known as [GuS]

ebovinebiovirus: Do you get sound for this game: http://onslaught.playr.co.uk/22:13
zvonkorp... how do i uninstall programs in kubuntu 9.04 - the package manager only lists ones i can install, and anything i install i can't see through the gui, terminal all day every day?22:14
kblinzvonkorp: nope. for me it was the font smoothing setting in konsole..22:14
Walexkblin: also, you might want to apply the same setting to the general set of KDE fonts in the Kontrol Center.22:14
Walexzvonkorp: you can use Synpatic or aptitude and they list both installed and available packages.22:15

us3ranybody can hlep me compiling tuxguardian?22:26
us3rI get this error when doing "make":In Datei, eingefügt von /home/user/Apps/tuxguardian-0.5/module/tg-defs.h:31,22:26
us3r                 von /home/user/Apps/tuxguardian-0.5/module/tg-defs.c:25:22:26
us3r/home/user/Apps/tuxguardian-0.5/module/tg.h:28:26: Fehler: linux/config.h: No such file or directory22:26
kblinus3r: apart from the lousy translation of make errors, you seem to be missing a header file22:27
zvonkorpah - can i disable/uninstall plasma dashboard and still keep a taskbar?22:27
us3rkblink: thnkas for the quick answer. I'm on kubuntu 2.6.28-15 and I have linux-headers-2.6.28-15-gener-15.49 installed22:29
us3rand the same without "gener"22:29
us3rthe tuxguardian site says I nead kernel-sources and kernel-headeers. So I have the headers, but when I searched for kernel-sources I did not find anything useful and google told me that in ubuntu  the kernel-sources are kernel-headers - but the tux-sites mentiones BOTH of them22:31
zvonkorpoh jeez, i just permanentely fuxored my gui lol22:31
kblinus3r: try installing build-essential22:32
us3rkblin:did that already too22:32
us3r11.422:33
kblinus3r: ok, no idea about that piece of software22:33
us3rok, thank you anyways kblin!22:34
kblinapart from the opinion that configure should catch and complain about errors like that :)22:34
us3rkblin the readme says: install the dependencies, become root and do 'make' - that'S it. there isn't even a configure file22:35
kblinoh22:35
us3rare there other kernel-sources, other than in build-essential and in the headers?22:39
