[00:01] I am trying to change the default actions for media insertion, I want to add vlc to the service menu but it won't let me [00:01] any ideas [00:05] i dunno if you can [00:05] have you set vlc as the default media player? [00:05] Hrm I'll look into that [00:05] its kinda a pita [00:05] dragon player is... well I prefer to use anything else [00:05] ya dp is kinda basic [00:05] ummm [00:06] * Bsims grins I had to disable that lil bracket in the upper left hand corner to get my fullscreen back [00:06] you need to accossiate the file types with vlc manually [00:06] associate** === cpplogger is now known as apachelogger [00:06] Darn, I was trying to get it to be an option in device notifier [00:06] so that it was an option when I inserted a dvd [00:07] if you set it as the default file type handler [00:07] it may [00:07] doesn't [00:07] are you sure? [00:07] I think so [00:07] lol [00:08] I know its the default media player in my default file manager [00:09] vlc? [00:09] yes I set vlc as the default media player for every extention I could think of [00:09] okkkkk [00:09] ummmm [00:09] then i dunno [00:10] i use kaffeine on a netbook [00:10] it has no dvd drive :P [00:10] fair enough [00:11] I think someone had a tutorial on how to do that on the Pk.o [00:11] Oh [00:11] Bsims left [00:11] lol [00:12] kde needs an options to set a default media player [00:12] option** [00:12] .. it does [00:12] I seem to recall it has one, for default apps [00:12] ya [00:12] web browser [00:12] mail [00:13] I mean, I haven't bothered myself [00:13] but no media player [00:13] v1ttu: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [00:13] ...no quite, it does it per MIME [00:13] sorry mr bot-chan [00:13] i have no idea what that is === Kage_Jittai is now known as Kage [00:32] v1ttu: If you go to File Associations You have an option for Video Files, Audio Files or Media Files. You can make all Video files open in one application [00:33] already done :P [00:33] im not the one who had the problem [00:34] I know. Just you said there isn't an option to do that [00:35] i meant an easy way [00:35] like choosing the default broswer/mail [00:35] browser** [00:37] systemsettings === anthony is now known as Guest57783 [00:39] wat about systemsettings? [00:39] "like choosing the default broswer/mail" [00:39] ? [00:40] it can be done in the systemsettings [00:40] where? [00:41] fabio666: It can't where v1ttu is speaking about [00:42] It can be done there it's just not the big obvious section [00:42] Ah Of course you can edit the Device actions! Its on the plasmoid [00:42] you can add vlc there if you want [00:42] lol [00:43] too bad he left like 30 mins ago [00:44] Yeah [00:45] isn't there a script to remove extra kernels? [00:46] cant you manually remove them through packagekit? [00:46] then update-grub? [00:48] there used to be a script that did it all for you.. [00:49] lol [00:49] by the time you find the script [00:49] you could have removed them manually :P [00:49] v1ttu: the way i do it, old school [00:49] fine! [00:50] Guest57783: Sudo apt-get autoremove [00:51] no just lazy [00:51] i dont remove them [00:52] i dont think autoremove will work on kernels will it? [00:52] worked! [00:52] nicely done daskreech [00:52] lol [00:52] guess it does [00:52] v1ttu: Leaves you with I think 3 kernels [00:52] which is a good number [00:52] kde is really rockin' now [00:52] esp when you have like 13 installed :) [00:53] im using the 2.6.33 kernel so i dunno what it would do to my system [00:53] Guest57783: that's Deb not KDE but yeah [00:53] i know [00:53] just saying i can actually use KDE now [00:53] beefore it was so slow and buggy.. [00:54] Ah [00:54] Different conversation :) [00:54] lol ya [00:54] Now it's Fast and Buggy! Whooooooo [00:54] 4.1 was crapp [00:54] lol [00:54] lol@fast [00:58] i'm using 4.4.1 and it really whips the lamas ass [00:58] animal cruelty what about 4.0? [01:00] but i have to disable nepomuk virtuoso etc... in order to get faster [01:00] fabio666: That was pretty neat [01:00] fabio666: 4.1 the novelty wore off and it got really annoying [01:00] it sucked [01:00] Guest57783: I'm all for lamas and whipping [01:01] But 4.5 looks a good deal better than 4.4 [01:01] ye well.. i can wait [01:01] Guest57783: you'll get 4.4.3 with Lynx so you probably will :) [01:02] using it now [01:02] 4.5 is meant to be the ultimate release, like for the 3.5 [01:02] imho [01:02] i concur [01:02] details are out for 4.5? [01:04] nope i suppose [01:05] ? [01:05] what version will 9.10 be supported up to? [01:05] 4.4.2? [01:16] fabio666: It's not [01:16] fabio666: Not even close :) [01:16] v1ttu: 4.3.5 [01:17] i mean backported [01:18] huh [01:18] lynx already ships with 4.4.1 [01:18] so? [01:28] v1ttu: backports aren't really "supported" [01:29] okkkkkkkkkk then [01:29] will 4.4.2 be the last backported for 9.10? [01:29] Depends on volunteers [01:30] if someone wants to volunteer to do the other releases then it will happen [01:30] otherwise the main Kubuntu Dev volunteers will be working on Marmoset [01:30] 10.10 got named? [01:31] No I just keep throwing out random M names :) [01:31] lol [01:31] thanks 4 the info [01:35] Mandrake Moose :D [02:00] am trying to compile amarok here but keeps complaining of missing mysqld..per instruction i have libmysqld-pic and dev installed [02:01] what cud be the problem?

[04:36] it works with root [04:36] and ya its dolphin [04:37] Guest22584: I'm not sure why, I have it too :) I think HAL is scheduled for removal or something, and that's why it won't work [04:37] hmm [04:37] mounting and unmounting through terminal works just fine [04:43] I really hate the network management plasmoid... [04:43] any tips on getting it to auth to a wpa2 network reliably?

[05:06] hi i have installed screenlets, which also pops in kde desktop too.. hw can i force it to start in gnome only? [05:09] abhifx, can you check in autostart if it has an entry? [05:11] orb01, ok [05:11] orb01, screenlet daemon is there [05:11] abhifx, you're in KDE right ? [05:12] if it's in the autostart list for KDE, then delete it there [05:13] orb01, oops... i was in gnome [05:13] abhifx: go into KDE and check if it's in autostart there, you want it to autostart in gnome [05:14] orb01, so if go to kde and remove it from startup that will fix it? or it will stop it altogether? even in gnome [05:14] I'm pretty sure that if you remove it from autostart in KDE (advanced menu in system settings) it still starts in gnome :) [05:14] looks i got it... thx man [05:14] no problem [05:45] hello rm [05:46] csn sny one help with downloading firefox [05:47] charles_: what is your problem? In Karmic, there's a Firefox Installer in Kickoff application launcher -> Applications -> Internet [05:50] well i try to down load it and it downloads into ark but then it will not work [05:51] am i doing something wrong? [05:53] it wont open, i save the prg and then try to open it and ark [05:53] and then it unpackss but thats it [05:53] unextract it, at the properties tab of firefox enable the execute, and try to open it [05:56] I am having an issue with my audio that just started about 20 minutes ago. My audio is occasionally working and then stopping and the working again. (by audio i mean sound from system notifications, firefox windows like youtube, amarok, etc.) Rebooting does nothing to fix this. Occasionally I get a notification the HDA Intel Audio Device stopped working, fallin gback to pulse audio. Going to System Settings --> Multimedia shows [05:56] that HDA Intel is still preferred in all output setting but testing it does nothing. Any suggestions? === zedority is now known as longbean [06:00] RnFstRuckHrd: did you install something recently? [06:01] RnFstRuckHrd: like anything that has dependencies on timidity, or esound libraries or whatever? [06:01] I installed wine earlier today to setup and use EAC [06:01] uninstall it [06:01] worked everythin was working fine earlier [06:01] I have the same problem [06:01] really!? [06:02] some library or whatever grabs your sound card [06:02] because of EAC or wine? [06:02] and the sound server can't handle that [06:02] no, because of some package that installs timidity [06:02] timidity? [06:02] yeah, audio package [06:02] same sound card though [06:02] same problem [06:02] uninstall it, reboot, and you shouldnt have the problem [06:02] so uninstall timidity, or wine and/or EAC? [06:03] let me see [06:03] one sec [06:03] eac is probably the problem [06:03] egads [06:04] crap - no workaround? [06:04] there probably is, but sound is very important to me and I haven't had the courage yet to try to figure it out [06:04] Yes, to me as well. [06:05] darn - spent hours today getting EAC set up the way I want and making my first FLAWLESS rip in linux [06:05] I was really excited [06:05] there's probably a package that grabs audio from cds in the kubuntu repositories, I'm pretty sure actually [06:05] ok, no good on that [06:05] any thing else i can try [06:06] orb01 - what do you mean? would installing this allow me to keep EAC and have audio back? [06:07] Or, you mean a KDE repo app that will allow me to rip [06:07] RnFstRuckHrd: there's probably a package that does the same thing as EAC without wine or breaking your sound, but what you need to do now is uninstall EAC and reboot [06:08] orb01 - unfortunately no linux rip prgogram produces a log file that is accepted by the logchecker for my torrent community. I will have to finish ripoing these CDS and put up with no audio until then [06:08] Thanks for the information though [06:09] RnFstRuckHrd: no problem :) [06:11] orb01 - when I do that: should I uninstall the wine applications and then remove wine? or can I simply uninstall wine (which would remove any applications installed therein?) [06:12] RnFstRuckHrd: try to uninstall EAC first, then purge wine, reboot, then install wine again [06:12] RnFstRuckHrd: wine has nothing to do with the problem, it works fine here [06:12] RnFstRuckHrd: but without uninstalling wine you might not be able to fix the problem [06:13] purge...? remove via synaptic? [06:13] RnFstRuckHrd: sudo apt-get purge wine [06:14] what does purge do/mean? [06:15] it removes your configuration files for the program [06:16] so it should remove the changes to your sound settings [06:16] I see - good to know TY kindly :p [06:17] I wish I did not have to use wine at all [06:18] RnFstRuckHrd: yeah.. what exactly does EAC do? with the logs? [06:18] RnFstRuckHrd: you rip cds and it logs what it does? [06:20] Most audio extraction programs will log the extraction process. The biggest information to come out of the log is verification that the CRC checks all match and that the external compressor (if used) worked correctly. The webiste I belong to requires a log file to be included with lossless rips to verify they are in fact lossless. This logchecker, for reasons beyond me, will not grade a log from any linux ripper. Hence my need [06:20] to emulate Windows to run EAC. [06:22] RnFstRuckHrd: okay, that makes sense [06:23] which is really unfortunate because I like some of the linux extractors, like rubyripper and K3B [06:24] perhaps someday, I cannot figure out for the life of me why the logchecker is selective (or how it can even tell for that matter!) of logs from linux machines [06:27] RnFstRuckHrd: if you want to try troubleshooting this thing yourself you could.. look at the ubuntu sound troubleshooting (known problems) guide [06:32] orb01 - I very well may do that if I can find some time. Til then I plan on just removing EAC and wine completely after I get done ripping the albums I have left. I won't have much use for it after that anyhow [06:32] RnFstRuckHrd: right [06:33] drivers are the baine of my existence [06:34] getting the built-in webcam in my monitor to work when I switched over to linux completely was an absolute nightmare, and needless to say it pushed me far out of my comfort zone as I was/am still new to linux [06:34] haha, my first distro was mandrake back in the days [06:34] and I had an ADSL modem [06:34] no drivers [06:34] ADSL? [06:34] yeah, connection used in belgium [06:35] it really sucked.. [06:35] lol [06:35] I remember listening to the AOL dial up tone as a kid [06:35] lol [06:35] and how cool it was when we upgrade to AOL 4.0 from 2.something [06:36] and now I have a midi controller here I can't get working properly on Linux.. the drivers work, but it kills all other sound, and the dj programs for linux suck [06:36] "The Times They Are A Changin' " [06:36] so I'm still stuck with a dual boot [06:37] in WIn or OSX [06:37] ? [06:38] dual boot kubuntu xp [06:38] well at least you have XP, Vista and 7 are "dangerous" [06:39] I switched to karmic after being a life-long XP user [06:39] oh, how long ago [06:39] ? [06:40] about 2 months I think [06:41] nice :) tried Gnome on anything? [06:43] ya, before switching my desktop and all my "worldy" posessions to linux I put a few different versions on my laptop. I like ubuntu and kubuntu equally. I eventually decided on KDE just for the visual aspects [06:43] I did not get to play with many GNOME apps [06:44] I tried DreamLinux but did not like it, and CentOS was not for me. I even tried a hackintosh OSX Snow Leo but it was too much for my older laptop [06:45] KDE gives me the GUI that I truly LOVE and the ecitement (and occasional frustration/challenge) of learning a new OS [06:46] not to mention I am not breaking the law, as was the case with the OSX disc [06:47] orb01 - are you on Karmic or Lucid?
