I know it connects to something but what is it intended towards? [01:15] scunizi its intended to find other people using kde near you [01:15] scunizi but i have never used it [01:15] might wanna look here: http://dot.kde.org/2009/05/01/social-desktop-starts-arrive [01:15] anybody knows of a panel clock similar of gnome's (with various time-zones)? Can't figure out how to do that in KDE. [01:16] ari__: World Clock [01:16] ari__: shoudl come standard, might be in plasma-addons [01:16] can I put that in a panel as a digital clock?? [01:17] ari__ what do you mean? [01:17] gorgonzola: thanks.. ummm.. ok.. what't the purpose of the widgit dashboard icon? after clicking I get a tab top dead center of the screen but don't see any functionality about it. [01:17] just as the standard digital clock.... [01:18] the same gnome digital clock would suffice, but I'm in KDE now.. [01:18] scunizi, you are talking about the social desktop thingy? if its that, then i guess you have to configure it first [01:19] ari__ i'm sorry, i don;t know the gnome clock. but the standard clock displays time zones if you tell it to. i have like five time zones in mine :) [01:19] gorgonzola: no.. different icon.. on my desktop it's just to the right of the desktop switcher on the bottom bar [01:20] ari__: yes [01:20] how?? [01:20] ari__: world clock? [01:21] digital clock [01:22] In Gnome I click on it and it just shows the calendar and the clocks for the different zones [01:22] ari__: same way you would ahy other... [01:22] can't make it to do it with the digital clock [01:22] I go to "Digital clock settings" [01:22] then Time zones [01:23] it just doesn't show. [01:25] scunizi: mmmm, you mean the "show dashboard" widget? if that's it, it's supposed to move all windows aside and show you your dashboard, ie the desktop in plasma-speak [01:29] gorgonzola: ah.. ok.. I didn't have any windows open to move.. and dashboard is ? the desktop? [01:30] scunizi: not quite. is the place where the widgets that are not attached to panels live in. so if you have a bunch of widgets in the "desktop", show dashboard will fade all windows and show your widgets [01:30] scunizi, like in mac os x. personally, i'm an old fashioned guy, so i use show desktop. but its almost the same thing. feel free to play with the different options. [01:39] gorgonzola: moving from gnome to kde is an adventure in relearning [01:46] gorgonzola: interesting widgit "opendesktop" .. looks like I had already signed up for it previously but forgot about it. [01:47] scunizi: its your kde-look account [01:47] or gnome-look [01:48] (its all one backend) [01:49] It is even more of and adventure these days with plasma scunizi and gorgonzola. But gorgonzola I think you will like the change once accustomed to it. [01:49] its pretty now! [01:53] compilewriter oh, nevermind me, i've been using it for years :P [01:53] anybody here guys? [01:54] scunizi sorry, got a little distracted. yes, it's very different, but if you get used to it you'll love it. its the future! gotta go now. good luck with the learning. [01:56] Oops it appears I have grabbed the wrong end of the stick. scunizi you will like it once you get used to the change. [01:57] how to deselect time zones now? I selected all by mistake! [01:58] Ctrl+A - Select all; Ctrl+Shift+A (system "Deselect") - Nothing :( [01:58] got all timezones selected! :( [01:59] click somewhere?

[04:52] yeah [04:52] hello shahul [04:52] although I'm fighting dependency hell :P [04:57] Hello, I'm running 9.10 karmic koala, I don't know if that has anything to do with firefox 3.5.5 crashing when I try to watch a streaming video. When I bring firefox back I get this annoying screen "Well, this is embarassing..." Has anyone else had this experience? Could this be related to karmic koala? === mig is now known as Guest41353 [05:00] how would I auto start nm-applet in karmic? [05:02] how do I create an xorg.conf, I need a resolution that is not automatically detected? [05:02] on an Intel gfx chipset [05:06] cherry_: use xrandr. If you want to generate one use "xorg -config". If it isn't available in xrandr then you probably won't be able to set it in xorg.conf [05:06] cherry_: there are several other ways to automatically generate an xorg.conf as well iirc. [05:08] Do you guys have something similar to Gentoo's stages where you can just untar and go, or do I actually have to download the install disk and use it's installer? [05:09] good nite [05:11] i got a question is there any irc in spanish arond cuz i need help with somthin' [05:18] wget using a proxy? [05:24] irc in spanish [05:24] ? [05:35] cherry_: are you auto-starting nm-applet in KDE then? [05:36] freetux #ubuntu-es I believe [05:37] just make sure there's a .desktop file in your $HOME/.kde/Autostart folder and it'll start automatically; naturally, the same goes for any .desktop file you put there [05:40] Does anybody find that if you right click anything in the quick file folder search menu next to the K button that KDE crashes? [05:42] is anybody else using strigi to index their kmail emails? I set it up but upon search the only results that turn are the raw data files in the kmail profile folder, which have to be opened with kate to look for the email referencing what was searched. Is there anyway to get it to display results in a more meaningful and usable way? [05:43] ello! [05:43] hi [05:43] stevo are you a crazy kde user [05:43] remember me? [05:44] yea [05:44] question for you [05:44] you know the quick launch file/folder thing [05:44] im using xubuntu right now [05:44] in the panel [05:44] yea [05:44] if you click on that to expand the menu [05:44] and then right click something in the menu... have you ever had KDE crash? [05:44] nope [05:44] oh [05:44] mine crashes every single time I right click anything in that menu [05:44] :) [05:44] it only shows to add it to favorites only tho [05:45] I dont even get that, KDE just gives me the finger and crashes [05:45] that is the only that happens when u right click in that thing, the name, and the button to add to favorites [05:45] yeah, I didnt know that. I downloaded an ISO and I thought I could right click and open with K3B. But it just crashed. [05:46] u seem like you have a broken install... or u installed a theme or somthin for plasma? [05:46] I tried right clicking folders and it too crashed. [05:46] well I might have a broken install, casue after all I installed 9.04 Jaunty and tried to upgrade KDE which didn't seem to pan out too well. [05:46] I had some issues and tried some things to fix it. [05:46] and I got it workin, but, meh [05:46] i done that too [05:46] I wish Karmic didnt hate my computer [05:46] I'd run karmic in a heartbeate [05:46] it made the splash screen not work, and the xserver not work [05:46] but I'm sorry - I need my system to actually function [05:47] karmic isn't all it is cracked up to be [05:47] well, no, but karmic has the latest KDE [05:47] mine had a bunch of drivers and stuff fail, so my hardware couln't be used at all [05:48] karmic fails to detect all 4 of my hdds properly [05:48] 2 of my drives are for network storage [05:48] that is what karmic done to me [05:48] so if I cant mount those, no file server [05:48] ya [05:48] its a common problem in karmic from what I've read [05:48] on your kde machine do you run 9.04? [05:48] just wait until lucid, dude [05:49] well, yeah, but lucid is months away [05:49] ya, i run 9.04, I done a fresh install to downgrade from karmic [05:49] the kernel with it also fails [05:49] do you really think my issue is a broken install? [05:49] it is like half done, I had to fall back [05:50] well... have you used any new themes, then after that, did it crash [05:50] yeah I have tried other themes [05:50] which that's another question in itself [05:50] why do themes only apply themselves to the panel? [05:50] I want them to apply to everything like it did in gnome land [05:50] try to get everything default [05:51] whats the default theme called again? [05:51] oxygen [05:51] oh wow [05:51] I amo n the oxygen theme [05:51] I have like a dozen installed though [05:51] the only problem I had with karmic was pulseaudio being a non-fuctioning pile of poo and having to be removed. Otherwise it's been a joy. Nepomuk works pretty nicely now which I enjoy [05:52] what are you looking at, plasma or the appearance setting [05:52] appearance setting [05:52] I dont recall touching plasma [05:52] I dont even know how to be honest. Im kind of a new KDE user. [05:52] change it to qt then [05:52] qt is supposed to be the default of the defaults [05:53] QT under appearance? [05:53] yea [05:53] the one from system settings [05:53] or at least something that contains qt [05:54] i actually think it is the best theme, as it has animated progress bars :) [05:54] hm, not sure I'm seeing anything in sys settings [05:54] Im going to install Kubuntu on my work laptop to see if it has the crash issue there [05:54] you go to system settings > Appearance [05:55] it won't I assure you [05:55] how can you be so sure? [05:55] quitting in the middle of an upgrade has screwed me over countless times [05:55] I didnt quit in the middle of an upgrade. [05:55] I just tried to update KDE itself, not to karmic. [05:55] ahhhhhhhhh [05:56] that the problem [05:56] i thot u were upgradin to karmic [05:56] is there a way I can revert KDE back to square one? [05:56] just like - purge to default [05:56] i don't really have a fix, but you can report a bug [05:56] all settings [05:56] but is it truly a bug? [05:56] uhhhh... not really [05:56] I mean it was me screwin around lol [05:57] it is a true bug [05:57] i think at least [05:57] how so? [05:57] I followed a guide to upgrade to the latest KDE [05:57] I got some errors along the line. [05:57] *shrug* [05:57] I'm not seeing how that's a bug. Do you really think it is? [05:58] well, a bug is a problem in programming where something does not work as it should [05:58] i think that should qualify [05:58] just report it, sum1 will fix it or come up with solution down the line [05:59] put it in the forums too [05:59] guess what.... [05:59] what? [05:59] I am using a windows 98 computer with xubuntu and it works perfectly [06:00] lol? [06:00] ???? [06:00] lol is a question now? [06:01] any other problems that I might be able to help u with [06:02] eh, not at the moment [06:02] except I never found that QT setting :P [06:02] oh and another thing [06:02] yea? [06:02] if I boot my main rig here I'm on now to the livecd, and right click the file where KDE crashed and tis fine on livecd, does that prove I have a broken install? [06:03] qtcurve [06:03] for widget style? [06:04] no, qtcurve for appearance [06:04] that was back when i didn't know you tried to install kde [06:04] ah [06:05] yea, the install is broken tho [06:05] what do you think about the lviecd idea? [06:05] the idea to do what? [06:05] get the kde off of the live cd? [06:05] no no [06:05] Im just wondering if my train of thought is correct [06:06] so Im on my main rig now, and KDE crashes when I right click an item in the file/folder quick view thing in the panel [06:06] we know that, each time I right click, bam KDE crashes [06:06] brb, system reboot, yes your thought is correct [06:06] if I boot this system to a livecd and duplicate the same steps and it works [06:06] broken install? [06:06] ah okay [06:07] I've got a Gateway MX6441, uses the snd-atiixp drivers for sound. I _believe_ the modem is part of the sound card chipset, but cannot verify. [06:07] I have the snd-atiixp-modem module loaded, but an lspci shows no modems listed. [06:08] The googling I've done thus far shows plenty of examples of systems using the ATI IXP AC97 sound card and modules which also detects a modem using the associated drivers. [06:09] Anyone out there with a Gateway laptop of similar model that can tell me what drivers I may need to load to get the modem and what device out of /dev it would be using? [06:12] im back [06:12] that was a fast reboot [06:13] Can anyone help me share my printer on my network, I can map it but then it says unable to connect, access denied from my windows laptop [06:13] Roasted? [06:13] whats up [06:13] serraphyn sorry, i do not know anything about printers [06:13] BRB [06:13] waddap [06:14] installin kubuntu 904 on my work laptop [06:14] hey, could i remote connect do your desktop to diagnose it? [06:15] to my desktop?? [06:15] yea [06:15] you cant walk me through it? [06:15] Im not a linux noob - just a kde noob :P [06:16] ya, but i can just speed thru it really fast [06:16] yeah I'm tempted to install gnome, seems its network apps seem to have less issues, just KDE looks so pretty [06:16] you speeding through it really fast does nothing for me in terms of learning it though [06:16] saves me time [06:17] i cant get time back, ya know? [06:17] still does nothing for me :P [06:17] I may just nuke thuis install anyway [06:17] I'd like to start fresh now that I got my feet wet ewith KDE [06:17] i just wanna remote konnect (kde joke) [06:18] ;) [06:18] stevo do you use gnome a lot too [06:19] yea [06:19] whats your bread and butter/ [06:19] and xfce [06:19] mac, that right there is my bread and butter [06:19] are you serious?

(for those in the central and eastern time zones of the US anyway) [07:07] OK, got the modem figured out. I had it turned off in the BIOS. Durrrp. [07:07] AC97, snd-atiixp-modem [07:07] I can use minicom to connect to the serial port, it responds to an "ATZ" and whatnot. [07:08] But when I try to dial out (with "ATDT12345678"), I get the following in dmesg(8): "atiixp-modem: codec read timeout" [07:08] Various reg values of "reg 0", "reg 1c" and "reg 3c". Any thoughts? A google search returned nothing. [07:09] I found a fix for a similar problem relating to the sound drivers whereby it said to pass "ac97_codec=0" to the snd-atiixp module in /etc/modprobe.d/alsa.conf, but that param is invalid for the snd-atiixp-modem module. [07:11] RTFS of atiixp_modem.c reveals very few parameters; index, id, and ac97_clock.
