| Anpu | anyone know how to solve? | 00:03 |
| daskreech | dmdevotee: When? | 00:08 |
| daskreech | Your BIOS beeps at certain times | 00:08 |
| Matisse | hi | 00:08 |
| daskreech | Startup and shutdown are two of those times | 00:08 |

| Typos_King | dmdevotee: I think it may be a 'notification' sound, you can turn those off under System settings > advanced > notifications | 00:09 |
| Matisse | I'm experiencing some problems since i upgraded to KDE 4.4. I got 2 tasklines and no window borders (those with close- and maximize-button) | 00:09 |

| dmdevotee | typos_king: is there a notifications menu under System settings > advanced > notifications in kubuntu 9.10? i heard that some differences of KDE versions.. | 00:12 |
| dmdevotee | i have the menu in spanish, and i can't find "notificaciones" or something else | 00:13 |
| Typos_King | it may not be in Advanced, but it's there | 00:13 |
| dmdevotee | oh yes! | 00:13 |
| dmdevotee | thanks | 00:13 |
| Matisse | daskreech, do you have an idea? | 00:13 |
| dmdevotee | but i am talking about beeps of the motherboard, not sound clips | 00:15 |
| Typos_King | ... like... can you describe them? | 00:15 |
| Typos_King | I know, you mean to say coming from the mb speaker, rather than the soundcard | 00:16 |
| Typos_King | but... dunno. can't say, could even be a bios setting | 00:16 |
| dmdevotee | daskreech: the motherboard beeps when i reboot or shutdown | 00:16 |
| dmdevotee | only happens in kubuntu | 00:16 |
| Typos_King | might be drivers.. | 00:17 |
| dmdevotee | i thinked that could be there an option, since only happens in kubuntu (not tried other kde linux distribution) | 00:17 |
| Typos_King | maybe try installing the linux-backports-modules | 00:17 |
| Typos_King | I think so too | 00:17 |
| Typos_King | I have it, and I don't get it :| | 00:18 |
| dmdevotee | your motherboard doesn't beep when shutdown kubuntu? | 00:19 |
| Typos_King | nope | 00:19 |
| Typos_King | then again, I don't use kde WM | 00:19 |
| Typos_King | :) | 00:19 |
| daskreech | dmdevotee: what else do you have installed? | 00:20 |
| daskreech | Typos_King: likely the kde4init not the wm that's causing the beep | 00:21 |
| dmdevotee | if i remember correctly, i have knowledge of that matter since the first reboot... | 00:22 |
| dmdevotee | what is wm? | 00:22 |

| daskreech | Kicker as in KDE3? | 01:38 |
| daskreech | schultza: did you look in System Settings -> mouse ? | 01:38 |
| kwtm | KDE3. I have this little icon that apparently Adobe decided to install when I installed the Adobe PDF reader. | 01:38 |
| kwtm | I want to get rid of it but right-clicking does not show that option in the menu. I don't know what the program is called so I can't killall it. | 01:38 |
| kwtm | Is there some way to ask Kicker what program is showing that icon so I can kill -9 it? | 01:39 |
| daskreech | kwtm: I'd do a grep on processes and look for something adobenamed | 01:42 |
| kwtm | daskreech: Tried that already. No way for Kicker to tell us what icon is taking up space? | 01:43 |
| daskreech | kwtm: Nope Kicker is just a container | 01:43 |
| daskreech | It doesn't know anything about the contents | 01:43 |
| sea__ | Hey, I found a bug in fluxbox. What should I do? | 01:43 |
| daskreech | sea__: File the bug | 01:44 |
| sea__ | as soon as I figure out how to describe it. :\ | 01:45 |
| kwtm | daskreech: Can I double-click the icon, open the window, and then somehow find the process that is making the window? I mean, xkill knows what process owns the window right? Can I find out, too? | 01:52 |
| daskreech | kwtm: It knows the Xwindow descriptor | 01:53 |
| daskreech | which X translates to a PID | 01:53 |
| kwtm | Okay. How do I get the Xwindow descriptor? Will that lead me to a Process ID? | 01:54 |
| daskreech | kwtm: What are you trying to do? | 01:54 |
| kwtm | I'm trying to find out which process spawned the process that owns the window, so I can get rid of that process (which probably owns the icon in my systray). | 01:55 |
| kwtm | Awww, ffffrick!!! | 01:56 |
| kwtm | I found it. | 01:56 |
| kwtm | It was named "Adobe", not "adobe". | 01:56 |
| kwtm | Note to self: set alias for "ps -ef | grep -i", not just "ps -ef | grep". :P | 01:56 |
| daskreech | kwtm: :-) | 01:56 |
| daskreech | kwtm: Propietary companies Llove caps | 01:57 |
| kwtm | KILL SynchronizerApp-binary!!!! | 01:58 |
| kwtm | Yess!! It worked. Stupid adobe! Trying to stick bloatware on my linux computer. | 01:58 |
| daskreech | kwtm: Probably started with the KDE session | 02:00 |
| daskreech | should stop now hopefully | 02:01 |
| kwtm | daskreech: No, no. My KDE session is about 2 months old now. I'm pretty sure it appeared when I launched that Adobe Plug-In reader in Firefox because, *somehow*, Firefox is incapable of doing "open with" when it loads a URL: it has to either SAVE to a file or OPEN it in a firefox tab using whatever evil plugins some proprietary company dreamed up. | 02:02 |
| kwtm | I guess I should update Firefox. Since I'm still on 3.0.x and it's now, what, 3.3.x? 3.4.x? | 02:03 |
| daskreech | 3.6 | 02:05 |

| kwtm | Hey, I just checked, and my 8.04 (which is currently the latest LTS version) still uses Firefox 3.0.x. Boy, this long-term support thing isn't what I thought it was. | 02:07 |
| daskreech | kwtm: It has long term support | 02:07 |
| kwtm | Can't wait for 10.04 so I can get some support. | 02:07 |
| daskreech | you have support | 02:08 |
| daskreech | just for firefox 3.0 | 02:09 |
| daskreech | :-) | 02:09 |
| kwtm | daskreech: Well, I'm thankful for that. I guess what I'm saying is that everyone else is using 3.5+ on Firefox and I'm feeling a bit vulnerable on 3.0.x , but as long as it has no major vulnerabilities, I don't need the latest and greatest. THough 3.2.x would have been nice. | 02:09 |
| daskreech | kwtm: Yeah FOSS moves far too quickly | 02:10 |
| kwtm | daskreech: Yeah, the point of my switching to Linux was so I wouldn't be trapped on the upgrade treadmill. After all, Linux runs on legacy hardware and MS doesn't. But I felt very alienated with this KDE4 thing. | 02:11 |
| daskreech | I'm amazed at the crazy difference in KDE 4.0 and KDE 4.4 | 02:11 |
| daskreech | kwtm: How so? | 02:11 |
| kwtm | Once Kubuntu 10.04 comes out, I'll feel ready to spend time learning KDE4 knowing it will be worthwhile. But as you yourself said, the differences between KDE4.0 and KDE4.4... well, I don't want to have to keep tinkering with my computer. I just want it to work. | 02:12 |
| kwtm | I wrote a bazillion DCOP scripts for KDE3 and now I have to convert them all to Dbus scripts for KDE4. | 02:12 |
| daskreech | kwtm: What constitutes working? | 02:12 |
| daskreech | kwtm: oooh yeah | 02:12 |
| kwtm | daskreech: "working" = 1) It does what I want it to do, and 2) I know how to make it do what I want it to do (implying that I don't have to spend time relearning, no matter how much "better" the new system is) | 02:13 |
| daskreech | You should probably go to the forums and ask people to help with the conversion | 02:13 |
| kwtm | daskreech: It's not a simple conversion, either... I tried using dbus and it kept saying "no permission" or something. THis is for something as mundane | 02:14 |
| kwtm | as mundane as pasting a timestamp into the clipboard (Klipper) which I do instinctively probably a dozen times an hour. | 02:14 |
| kwtm | If it doesn't work, my workflow grinds to a halt. Then I'm back to tinkering. | 02:14 |
| daskreech | I think that Klipper can do that by itself now | 02:14 |
| kwtm | daskreech: Well, I have my own very compact 6-character timestamp which I brand my files with (e.g. my photos are renamed that.) | 02:15 |
| kwtm | For example, the time now is A3HJFQ | 02:15 |
| daskreech | Ok | 02:15 |
| daskreech | right | 02:15 |
| daskreech | so you need the dcop section of that to be converted to dbus | 02:16 |
| kwtm | Last year the first digit was 9 (for 2009), and before it was (8). THe 3 means March. H means 17 (March 17 now). Etc. So all my scripts are there, and it's not like I can't do bash programming. | 02:16 |
| kwtm | I just don't want ot have to do it all over again. I might even end up writing a Dcop->Dbus wrapper to avoid having to recode my scripts. | 02:16 |
| kwtm | I am willing to re-learn stuff every few years, so I plan to set aside some time to learn KDE4. But when it first came out, it was way too unstable for me to use. | 02:17 |
| kwtm | Anyway, gotta run. Thanks for listening! | 02:17 |
| daskreech | Wonder if someone did that already | 02:17 |
| daskreech | ok | 02:17 |

| gkffjcs | Hey all, is it possible to run two instances of kde as the same user at the same time on one system, I have setup Xvfb, a virtual xserver, which I use with x11vnc, and I want to start a second instance of kde using display:1, but I get a bunch of dbus errors, and then it quits with errors. | 06:07 |
| gkffjcs | Is there a way to do this? | 06:08 |
| shadeslayer | gkffjcs: yeah but not at the same time though | 06:09 |
| gkffjcs | that's annoying... :-( | 06:11 |
| daskreech | gkffjcs: yes you can but it's incredibly annoying | 06:12 |
| daskreech | why do you want to do that? | 06:12 |
| gkffjcs | My laptop is sort of an obnoxious resolution, the ultimate solution for me, would be to have x11vnc, run xrandr, change the res, when I connect, and then set it back when I disconnect, since my laptop is not a good res for most remote connections, but I've been searching through the x11vnc man pages, and haven't figured out how to do that yet. | 06:14 |
| gkffjcs | So I thought starting a second session in Xvfb woudl be the next better solution but I guess not. | 06:14 |

| ryan_ | hello? | 07:35 |

| ryan_ | anyone on | 07:38 |
| FireCrotch | ryan_: there are plenty of people on :) Though this can be quite a slow channel sometimes | 07:39 |
| FireCrotch | ryan_: Are you having a problem that you're looking for help with? | 07:39 |
| ryan_ | helloooo | 07:39 |
| ryan_ | yeah i guess i kinda am | 07:40 |
| iconmefisto | !ask | 07:40 |
| ubottu | Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 07:40 |
| FireCrotch | Well, what kind of problem are you having? | 07:40 |
| ryan_ | where are the other channels | 07:40 |
| ryan_ | im new to this so whats a version request? | 07:41 |
| FireCrotch | ryan_: I was simply asking your IRC client what client it actually is - that's what a CTCP Version request is | 07:42 |
| ryan_ | uh.... i dont get it | 07:42 |
| FireCrotch | What part? | 07:42 |
| FireCrotch | When someone sends a Version request, your IRC client (in this case, Konversation) tells them that you're using Konversation | 07:43 |
| FireCrotch | As for your original question - where are the other channels - you can press F5 and it will bring up a list of all of the channels on Freenode | 07:44 |
| ryan_ | ok but didnt you know i was on that already and ok ill try that | 07:44 |
| FireCrotch | it may take a while for the list to appear - its quite a long list. Is there a specific channel you're looking for? | 07:46 |
| ryan_ | well i pressed it, the list came up but there is no channels in it | 07:47 |
| ryan_ | o wain nvm its up. thanks | 07:47 |
| FireCrotch | No problem :) It takes a while since there are so many channels | 07:48 |
| ryan_ | yeah it keeps on going. it said user friendly when i came here but idk about that | 07:50 |
| FireCrotch | If you've never used IRC before, it can be a little intimidating. It's a lot different than any other chat service that you're used to. | 07:52 |
| ryan_ | hardly use the others so im pretty sure they all would be confusing :) | 07:53 |
| FireCrotch | Well IRC is definitely the most confusing | 07:53 |
| ryan_ | dosent seem too hard. i just am trying to find a classic "chat" room. all of them seem to be about info on other things | 07:54 |
| FireCrotch | ryan_: One thing to note is that this IRC network, Freenode, is primarily focused on providing support for various open source software programs | 07:55 |
| iconmefisto | ryan_: you can join #kubuntu-offtopic for general chat | 07:55 |
| FireCrotch | There are other, more social channels, though, such as #ubuntu-offtopic and #kubuntu-offtopic | 07:56 |
| ryan_ | linux needs to label there software a bit better then | 07:56 |
| iconmefisto | ryan_: why? how is konversation labelled? | 07:57 |
| FireCrotch | ryan_: there are other IRC networks that are more for social discussions and stuff like that. The program connects to Freenode (and this channel in particular) by default so that users who need help can access it easily | 07:58 |
| ryan_ | well in any case, there is something i have a question about. though im not sure if it can be answered. o and its labelled as a user friendly chat | 07:58 |
| ryan_ | its an OS question | 07:59 |
| iconmefisto | just ask | 08:00 |
| FireCrotch | We can definitely try to help with that :) | 08:00 |
| ryan_ | well im on linux and when ever i try to run a disk in the drive, as soon as it closes, my desktop goes blank and the only thing it lets me do is click on the menu. is there a reason its doing this? | 08:01 |
| iconmefisto | ryan_: you mean when you eject the disk? | 08:03 |
| ryan_ | no right as i put it in. any disk. movie, software, music, just any disk. | 08:04 |
| ryan_ | even the linux disk wont work. i boot it in my computer first and when it runs the OS from the disk, none of the icons show. so i cant format the hard drive. i can only partition it alongside windows | 08:06 |
| iconmefisto | ryan_: and that's all you're doing? just inserting the disk make your desktop go blank? | 08:06 |
| ryan_ | the icons just go away and it dose not let me into anything. it still runs but its like it locks out everything but the menu | 08:07 |

| FireCrotch | skramer_: Is your nick supposed to have an underscore at the end? | 08:10 |
| skramer_ | FireCrotch: no, actually t should be without the underscore | 08:10 |
| ryan_ | sorry. what is kubuntu | 08:10 |
| FireCrotch | skramer_: have you previously registered your nick? | 08:10 |
| skramer_ | FireCrotch: I just put the information into Quassel, nothing else | 08:11 |
| skramer_ | FireCrotch: anything else I need to do? | 08:11 |
| FireCrotch | skramer_: If you've been connected to the network all night but away, you'll have to re-identify with Nickserv. there was a netsplit, and you were probably on the side of it that NickServ wasn't on | 08:11 |
| FireCrotch | skramer_: just do /nick skramer then /msg nickserv identify yourpassword | 08:12 |
| iconmefisto | ryan_: kubuntu is the linux distribution that this channel is devoted to. http://www.kubuntu.org | 08:12 |
| skramer_ | FireCrotch: I just wonder what should be my password, then | 08:12 |
| skramer_ | FireCrotch: I never needed to give a password | 08:12 |
| ryan_ | idk if i do or not then. im not that educated on anything with linux | 08:13 |
| FireCrotch | skramer_: did you ever register your nickname? skramer is registered, since about a year ago, I'm assuming this was you. | 08:14 |
| skramer_ | FireCrotch: I'm not sure if I did... | 08:15 |
| FireCrotch | skramer_: you probably had to enter your password into quassel when you set up quassel | 08:15 |
| FireCrotch | skramer_: if so, it's likely saved in quassel, so you can try just closing and restarting it - it should automatically set you up :) | 08:15 |

| skramer_ | FireCrotch: ok, I'll try again | 08:16 |
| === Ahmed is now known as Guest14268 | ||
| skramer_ | FireCrotch: I already re-started, but NickServ still complaining... | 08:16 |
| Guest14268 | What is GDebi Package installer (gdebi-KDE) | 08:16 |
| === Guest14268 is now known as \Ahmed | ||
| === david is now known as Guest83539 | ||
| skramer_ | FireCrotch: and whenever I start Quassel, I get the underscore at the end of my nick | 08:17 |
| \Ahmed | Guest 14268 is me :) | 08:17 |
| maco | Guest83539: the program that pops up to install software when you double click on a .deb | 08:17 |
| maco | bah | 08:17 |
| ryan_ | ok :) | 08:17 |
| maco | \Ahmed: that was at you | 08:17 |
| \Ahmed | Okay thanks | 08:17 |
| \Ahmed | yeah :) | 08:17 |
| \Ahmed | Okay one more thing | 08:17 |
| ryan_ | wow | 08:17 |
| \Ahmed | I have just installed ubuntu yesterday and i heard the upcoming release will be soon so do i have to format again to install Lynx or will i get that by updating ? | 08:18 |
| maco | \Ahmed: youre on 9.10? | 08:18 |
| \Ahmed | Yeah | 08:18 |
| maco | the updater will offer to take you up to it then | 08:18 |
| \Ahmed | Ubuntu 9.10 KK | 08:18 |
| \Ahmed | So how many MB ? will it be any idea ? cause at the moment i am having a slower connection | 08:19 |
| \Ahmed | The same way like now updater says Ubuntu 9.10 availble ? so its gonna add Lynx soon, right ? | 08:20 |
| iconmefisto | \Ahmed: lynx? you mean the browser? | 08:21 |
| FireCrotch | skramer_: if you're the one who registered the nick (which I would assume you are if you've been using it) and you're not able to identify, you might have to get a Freenode staff member to help you out | 08:21 |
| \Ahmed | NO no i meant the new Lucid Lynx Long term licence etc i dont know it well | 08:22 |
| skramer_ | FireCrotch: and how do I do that? how to contact them? | 08:22 |
| \Ahmed | I'm thinking to switch to it when its gonna be on updater as that guy wrote me up there | 08:22 |
| maco | <-- chick | 08:23 |
| skramer_ | FireCrotch: I also wonder why there is no "setup" of my nick in Quassel | 08:23 |
| maco | iconmefisto: \Ahmed means lucid | 08:23 |
| iconmefisto | \Ahmed: yes, it will be available some time in april. | 08:23 |
| skramer_ | FireCrotch: there is only the nckname, but no further options except rename it or delete it | 08:23 |
| skramer_ | FireCrotch: nothing about password, etc. | 08:23 |
| maco | FireCrotch: on the server you can set a nickserv password | 08:23 |
| maco | er.. | 08:24 |
| maco | skramer_: that was at you | 08:24 |
| \Ahmed | Yeah i see but what i wanna know is, will i able to install it through updates as installing KDE (cause i have installed it once) SO is it the very same way ? | 08:24 |
| \Ahmed | :) | 08:24 |
| maco | skramer_: go to networks in your configuration, then go to "auto identify" tab and you can check "nickserv" and give it the password | 08:24 |
| \Ahmed | OMG everyone is a geek in here :P | 08:25 |
| maco | \Ahmed: the updater will offer you both normal updates for the current version and the option to upgrade to the new release | 08:25 |
| FireCrotch | it looks like "skramer" is identified right now though | 08:25 |
| iconmefisto | \Ahmed: you can download the lucid (10.04) iso and install it, or you can upgrade your current 9.10 install | 08:25 |
| \Ahmed | Oh thank you :) | 08:26 |
| \Ahmed | Is it the name in full (Ubuntu 10.04 (Lucid Lynx) Alpha 1) ?? | 08:26 |
| \Ahmed | Which messenger (msn) can i use a webcam on cause i do know the hardware is been installed cause it was connected to the pc while installing ubuntu but how do i use it ? | 08:27 |
| iconmefisto | \Ahmed: almost. the "alpha" part means it is a pre-release version that you can download and install now | 08:27 |
| maco | \Ahmed: well beta 1 is coming out tomorrow | 08:27 |
| skramer_ | FireCrotch: it still gives me the underscore :-( | 08:28 |
| maco | \Ahmed: lucid lynx is the development codename. officially, its just plain "10.04" once the final release is out, though you'll see people keep referring to it as "lucid" | 08:28 |
| maco | \Ahmed: kopete (default im client) should work with webcams for msn, i think | 08:29 |
| iconmefisto | maco: no, even after release it is still known as lucid lynx. just as 9.10 is known as karmic koala | 08:29 |
| maco | \Ahmed: though whether your webcam is supported could be a different question | 08:29 |
| skramer_ | maco: ok, I found that setting | 08:29 |
| maco | iconmefisto: its not *supposed* to be | 08:29 |
| maco | iconmefisto: because thats just the development codename. its just that we're all stubborn and keep calling it that ;-) | 08:29 |
| \Ahmed | Okay Maco :) | 08:30 |
| iconmefisto | maco: how so? it is not a dev only codename at all | 08:30 |
| skramer_ | maco: but I guess the password I gave is not correct | 08:30 |
| maco | iconmefisto: some folks, like crimsun, refuse to call released versions by anything other than version number | 08:30 |
| skramer_ | maco: because I still get the underscore at the end of my nickname | 08:30 |
| maco | skramer_: might need to talk to freenode staff about a password reset then | 08:31 |
| \Ahmed | i used to use kopete but i couldnt really find much in that cause of having SO MANY OPTIONS and i am sticking to Empathy, WILL anyone tell me how to disable the SAVE CHAT on empathy ? | 08:31 |
| skramer_ | maco: how to contact them? | 08:31 |
| maco | iconmefisto: i think its silly as the names are cuter, but *shrug* you'll run into such people sometimes | 08:31 |
| maco | skramer_: #freenode | 08:31 |
| maco | \Ahmed: empathy only does webcam for xmpp/googletalk | 08:31 |
| skramer_ | maco: k, thanks | 08:31 |
| maco | \Ahmed: msg webcam support exists in the codebase, but its compiled out of ubuntu's version because it makes empathy crash | 08:32 |
| iconmefisto | maco: if you do this command in konsole, it will show the codename of the release you are running: lsb_release -c | 08:32 |
| maco | iconmefisto: so? | 08:32 |
| maco | the official name is simply 9.10 or 10.04 | 08:32 |
| \Ahmed | Oh well | 08:33 |
| maco | i do keep calling them by the adjectives | 08:33 |
| \Ahmed | So isnt there any messenger that the webcam works on (MSN) | 08:33 |
| iconmefisto | maco: it's not a dev codename. it is the *official* codename of the version, dev version or released version | 08:33 |
| \Ahmed | Apart from gmail | 08:33 |
| maco | but like i said, i can thnk of at least one dev who is anal about that being a development codename | 08:34 |
| FireCrotch | Do you call Windows 7 "Vienna" ? | 08:34 |
| \Ahmed | firecrotch: NO | 08:35 |
| buckethead | I call it "crap" personally, FireCrotch. | 08:35 |
| maco | or call Windows Vista "Longhorn" | 08:35 |
| \Ahmed | Hey well It's not crap :P i'm on windows from a very long time ! | 08:35 |
| buckethead | I prefer names personally, I love to get numbers backwards. | 08:35 |
| iconmefisto | maco: it is the dev codename, as well as the release codename | 08:36 |
| \Ahmed | And by the way all the viruses and keyloggers works perfectly haah on windows | 08:36 |
| iconmefisto | maco: does it get a new codename after release? no | 08:36 |
| \Ahmed | Anyone knows what's the most secure OS in Linux ? Mandriva ubuntu fedora ? etc | 08:36 |
| FireCrotch | iconmefisto: If you read the press release for 9.10, you'll note that nowhere in there is it called "Karmic Koala" | 08:38 |
| FireCrotch | http://www.ubuntu.com/news/ubuntu-910 | 08:38 |
| buckethead | I'm pretty sure that picking a distro based on security is overkill. Between iptables, apparmor, and a good password policy, you should be pretty well set. | 08:38 |
| \Ahmed | Anyone here is a cracker ? | 08:39 |
| iconmefisto | FireCrotch: so you're saying 9.10 is not codenamed karmic koala? this is ridiculous! | 08:39 |
| maco | iconmefisto: it was. but now it's 9.10. | 08:39 |
| \Ahmed | hahaha iconmefisto ! HUH | 08:39 |

For information on how to electronically sign the CoC, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SigningCodeofConduct . | 08:40 |
| iconmefisto | maco: if you do lsb_release -c why does it show "karmic" | 08:40 |
| maco | iconmefisto: because they dont bother to change it at release | 08:40 |
| FireCrotch | iconmefisto: you can get the same sort of result in Windows 7 probably :) from some Windows command, of course | 08:40 |
| iconmefisto | maco: what you are saying is what is called unfalsifiable | 08:40 |
| FireCrotch | Maybe win7 is a bad example since that was also the codename at one point | 08:42 |

| llutz | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KarmicKoala | 08:44 |
| FireCrotch | Why the heck are we arguing about what the "right" name is for ubuntu releases | 08:44 |
| iconmefisto | FireCrotch: right, there is a version number and a codename. the only codename 9.10 has is karmic, before and after release | 08:45 |
| FireCrotch | Codenames are used for one purpose and one purpose only - because humans are better at remembering names than they are at remembering numbers | 08:45 |

| Biosftw | hey i got a problem: It seems I am unable to change my clock | 08:46 |
| corigo | Hey, where can I find the PPA for 4.4.1? | 08:47 |
| FireCrotch | Biosftw: Right click the clock -> Adjust Date/Time | 08:47 |
| FireCrotch | Biosftw: Have you tried that already? | 08:47 |
| Biosftw | yeah : P but after i set auto adjust or change it manually and pressing apply | 08:48 |
| Biosftw | the apply button switches to grayscale and nothing happend | 08:48 |
| buckethead | corigo: Check the topic. | 08:48 |
| corigo | Yes, buckethead, I want to get the ppa's for my Kubuntu 9.10 so I can upgrade to KDE 4.4.1 | 08:49 |
| iconmefisto | corigo: https://launchpad.net/kubuntu-ppa/ | 08:49 |
| FireCrotch | Biosftw: I see the issue. Does it say at the topic "You are not allowed to save the configuration" | 08:49 |
| FireCrotch | topic -> top | 08:49 |
| Biosftw | as i see... nope | 08:50 |
| Biosftw | nothing happens | 08:50 |
| Biosftw | just the color of the apply button changes : P | 08:50 |
| FireCrotch | I believe this is definitely a bug - when you try to change the date/time, it should prompt you for your password | 08:51 |
| buckethead | kubuntu-backports is where I found mine. | 08:51 |
| FireCrotch | Since changing the system time requires root privileges | 08:51 |
| Biosftw | ah ok FireCrotch do you know the command for the clock changing dialog? so i could start it via sudo | 08:52 |
| === zbenjamin|away is now known as zbenjamin | ||
| corigo | thnx | 08:53 |
| FireCrotch | Biosftw: To be honest, I'm not sure what it is. it's part of kcontrol though, so starting that with kdesudo should work | 08:54 |
| \Ahmed | Does ubuntu have any firewall kinda ? or how do i consider it that its SAFE ? :) | 08:54 |
| buckethead | ufw is a front-end to iptables. | 08:54 |
| buckethead | Its pretty good, for a CLI interface. | 08:54 |
| FireCrotch | Biosftw: alternately, you can set the date/time from the command line, with the date command | 08:54 |
| jery | how can i eable 3D view ? | 08:55 |
| buckethead | Apparently there are two good firewall front ends (hooray for google) - guarddog and firestarter | 08:56 |
| iconmefisto | Biosftw: kdesudo kcmshell4 clock | 08:56 |
| Biosftw | iconmefisto: thx worked (except the automatical setup but nvm) | 08:59 |
| iconmefisto | Biosftw: you mean set time and date automatically? you should be able to set that without kdesudo (that is, just from systemsettings, or right-click the clock in the panel) | 09:03 |
| Biosftw | iconmefisto: didnt work as FireCrotch there should be something like a prompt asking for root password... but nothing appears | 09:04 |
| iconmefisto | gotta go Biosftw. back in about an hour if you want to wait | 09:07 |
| Biosftw | it is not that important | 09:07 |

| areichman | vbgunz: I'm not sure, I just know that I've run into problems from installing the drivers, gotten incompatible versions and not been able to get X to start | 09:35 |

| BluesKaj | TheGrammarFreak, for files in the repositories do sudp aptitude search nameofapp in the terminal | 16:27 |
| TheGrammarFreak | ubuntu, you have the correct graphics drivers yeah? | 16:27 |
| BluesKaj | sudo | 16:27 |
| ubuntu | It was working until i installed that studpid ATI crystal center | 16:28 |
| ubuntu | from software center | 16:28 |
| ubuntu | HUH | 16:28 |
| ulysses | BluesKaj: You don't need sudo if you want to search for packages, just use "aptitude search" or "apt-cache search". | 16:28 |
| BluesKaj | ulysses, ok, then why didn'y you tell TheGrammarFreak , instead of correcting me ? :) | 16:29 |
| TheGrammarFreak | I got it, dw | 16:29 |
| TheGrammarFreak | I'm competent enough to know when to use sudo | 16:29 |
| TheGrammarFreak | :P | 16:30 |
| TheGrammarFreak | I can't find anything, oh well | 16:30 |
| TheGrammarFreak | IS there a feature request thing, either for KDE or kubuntu? | 16:30 |
| TheGrammarFreak | Where I can ask for this? | 16:31 |
| BluesKaj | ok, TheGrammarFreak then do your aplications searches in your package manager the terminal or even google-linux on the net | 16:31 |
| BluesKaj | btw TheGrammarFreak , what exactly are you searching for | 16:33 |
| TheGrammarFreak | The ability to google search from the alt-f2 dialogue | 16:33 |
| TheGrammarFreak | For example, type "google hello world" into it and it starts firefox and does the search | 16:34 |
| James147 | TheGrammarFreak: typeing in gg:test works as well | 16:34 |
| ulysses | What about this? http://kde-look.org/content/show.php/SearchMoid?content=99460 | 16:34 |

| TheGrammarFreak | Aha! the gg thing, I'd never come across this | 16:35 |
| === shadesla1er is now known as shadeslayer | ||
| TheGrammarFreak | That's a step in the right direction, can it open firefox instead of konqueror? | 16:35 |
| James147 | TheGrammarFreak: Mine opens chrome so i would think so | 16:36 |
| TheGrammarFreak | Ok | 16:36 |
| BluesKaj | alt f2 is a the run command box , it'd meant for launching apps and files not webapps | 16:36 |
| TheGrammarFreak | BluesKaj, indeed it is, but as Jmes147 has pointed out the gg command allows you to google, just as I had wanted | 16:37 |
| TheGrammarFreak | James even | 16:37 |
| James147 | BluesKaj: its more then just ment for running apps, its can do many other things like change power profile, open songs in amarok and many many more | 16:37 |
| BluesKaj | ok, weird I just launch the browser | 16:37 |
| BluesKaj | why not just use the app ? I don't get it ...anyway to each his own. | 16:38 |
| James147 | click the "?" (on 4.4 not sure about 4.3) and you can see all the things it can do | 16:38 |
| ubuntu | ATI grapics driver installer ? NAME ? please | 16:39 |
| ubuntu | :) | 16:39 |
| TheGrammarFreak | I often launch a browser to search something, that is two command almost, one to start firefox, on to google. I have reduced this to one command | 16:39 |
| BluesKaj | TheGrammarFreak, are you KB purist ? | 16:40 |
| TheGrammarFreak | BluesKaj, KB? | 16:41 |
| BluesKaj | keyboard | 16:41 |
| TheGrammarFreak | Got it working if firefox, thanks for your help James147 | 16:41 |
| TheGrammarFreak | It's quicker than a mouse | 16:41 |
| James147 | TheGrammarFreak: No problem | 16:42 |
| TheGrammarFreak | By a long shiot | 16:42 |
| James147 | TheGrammarFreak: Using "Web Shortcuts" you can define your own as well for searching other sites | 16:43 |
| TheGrammarFreak | I prefer to type commands than to navigating through a menu, but I like a GUI. So the alt-f2 dialogue is a good compromise | 16:43 |
| BluesKaj | I still don't get it , you gotta use alt+F2 so where's the saving in strokes or clicks ? | 16:44 |
| TheGrammarFreak | I'll bet you anything I can get around my pc quicker than you can. After a while of doing it pressing alt-f2 is as natural as moving your mouse to the bottol right for the menu. | 16:45 |
| daskreech | bigbrovar: ping | 16:45 |
| TheGrammarFreak | So it takes no longer | 16:45 |
| TheGrammarFreak | So, if you have a maximised window, as I do now, you have to click the menu button, find firefox, wait for it to start, search (assuming a search engine is your homepage) and you'ree there. | 16:46 |
| ubuntu | How to install the graphics driver for ATI it was working before :) any help | 16:47 |
| TheGrammarFreak | I hit alt-f2, type "gg: search terms" then enter | 16:47 |
| TheGrammarFreak | And I'm done | 16:47 |
| TheGrammarFreak | ubuntu, how did you do it before? | 16:47 |
| BluesKaj | so what , how much time do you really save...is this a pi**ing contest or something ...if I'm missing some then please clue me in ? :) | 16:47 |
| TheGrammarFreak | I save a few seconds | 16:48 |
| BluesKaj | wow | 16:48 |
| James147 | BluesKaj: TheGrammarFreak: It dosen't really matter all that dose is if your happy using it the way you want to | 16:48 |
| TheGrammarFreak | Indeed, I'm sorry if I seem a bit defensive or harsh, it's been a tough day for me | 16:48 |
| BluesKaj | I'd sooner help ppl with real problems :) | 16:49 |
| TheGrammarFreak | Help ubuntu then | 16:49 |

| BluesKaj | Apsel, which software did you install on kubuntu for your tv card? | 16:53 |
| TheGrammarFreak | Hmm, well I've never done TV on my PC, so I am of limited use. But drivers, or lack thereof, spring to mind | 16:53 |
| Apsel | TheGrammarFreak: i tried Klear; TVtime and Kafeine | 16:54 |
| eirann | nickserv help | 16:56 |
| TheGrammarFreak | That's just the front-end software though, isn't it? If it's not I'm sorry. Again, I can't help much, I can only point out the usual suspects for things not working in linux. Try a googlesearch for the linux drivers of that card | 16:56 |
| BluesKaj | Apsel, are you sure that's the actual name of your tv card? | 16:57 |
| Apsel | TheGrammarFreak: how can i install the drivers? | 16:57 |
| Apsel | yes this is what is labeled on the package: PC TV PCI/7130 | 16:58 |
| TheGrammarFreak | Try hitting the k menu icon, going to system the drivers | 16:58 |
| TheGrammarFreak | See if anything pops up there | 16:58 |

| SiVA_ | what is a better supported laptop video card for linux, ATI Radeon or GeForce GT240M | 17:03 |
| daskreech | Radeon is a brand not a video card | 17:03 |
| ikonia | intel is very good support, nvidia is also a safer choice | 17:03 |
| SiVA_ | I'm looking for a new laptop, and I figure the video card is 50% of the problem with most of my current crashing issues | 17:03 |

| TheGrammarFreak | Bardack, why? | 17:04 |
| SiVA_ | sorry, thats an ATI HD 4670 | 17:04 |
| ikonia | bardack: remove the 4.4 packages, install 4.3 | 17:04 |
| ikonia | SiVA_: ATI support is still very poor | 17:04 |

| genii | human: When a program is packaged with multiple languages, it usually will try to determine from the language installed on the system which language to install itself. As far as i know there is no dpkg option to extract only a particular language | 19:52 |

| genii | human: You can temporarily set the system language to something else, install, then switch the language back | 19:52 |

| daskreech | deokanon: It should run sudo update-grub post install of the kernel. You can do that yourself if you like | 20:12 |
| deokanon | daskreech: thanks... it's strange though menu.ls upgraged itself and after i edited a couple of lines in grub.cfg, the new kernel shows up and it boots quite nicely....:( | 20:13 |
| genii | human_: Hm. I'm not certain if this can be done. It is outside the scope of my knowledge. | 20:13 |
| daskreech | human_: if it has a language setting in it's config you can probably change it there | 20:14 |
| genii | human_: Is your normal Russian LANG an UTF-8 variant? | 20:14 |

| deokanon | daskreech: i'm going to look into that dpkg thing you suggested | 20:15 |
| human_ | genii, yes, but blobwars-1.17 I have downloaded from their site is not working correctly. And the repository version has no sound. | 20:15 |
| deokanon | daskreech: any advice where i can start? | 20:16 |
| genii | human_: I would suggest to report this as a bug to the developers of blobwars | 20:16 |
| deokanon | daskreech:noob here | 20:16 |
| human_ | genii, you are going to do it by yourself? | 20:17 |
| === aqul is now known as benderi | ||
| genii | human_: No, i suggest yopu file your own bug report, at: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=add&group_id=294610&atid=1244297 | 20:20 |
| djustice | genii: woot | 20:20 |
| genii | human_: Category to report the bug in would be "translation" | 20:21 |
| human_ | genii, thank you, I have also described my problem at the parallelreality site. | 20:21 |
| daskreech | deokanon: it's the normal update process. If you changed the grub menu by hand it will ask if it should update it or leave it alone. You probably said leave it alone | 20:22 |
| daskreech | !find blobwars | 20:22 |
| ubottu | Found: blobwars, blobwars-data | 20:22 |
| daskreech | Hmm no blobwars-music | 20:23 |
| human_ | genii, it is pretty ty be an Englishman or an American((( No translation problem)) | 20:23 |
| genii | daskreech: The latest version with Ubuntu is 1.14, he is trying 1.17 | 20:23 |
| human_ | ubottu, this package from repository is going without music | 20:23 |
| CartoonCat | hello | 20:24 |
| st4aluck | hi | 20:24 |
| CartoonCat | anyone ever got gphoto2 to work in ptp mode, or gphotofs ? the camera is seen on the usb port but nothing else happens when it is plugged in | 20:24 |
| daskreech | genii: Still no music package. That might need looking into | 20:24 |
| daskreech | Depends on if you have libptp | 20:25 |
| CartoonCat | daskreech: one would assume that is a depends for when you install gphoto2 now wouldnt you? | 20:25 |
| CartoonCat | sine thats WHAT gphoto2 does.... | 20:25 |
| human_ | ubottu, this is the latest version http://www.parallelrealities.co.uk/download/blobwars/blobwars-1.17-1.i386.deb | 20:25 |
| genii | human_: ubottu is only a tool we use here, not a person :) | 20:26 |
| human_ | ubottu, but it is not correctly working with UTF-8 | 20:26 |
| human_ | :) | 20:26 |
| Apsel | please can someone help me ? i installed mythtv but i cannot have the TV. the program says "mythtv has no capture card defined" | 20:27 |
| deokanon | genii: who is "he" trying 1.17? | 20:27 |
| human_ | Apsel, I use vlc)) | 20:28 |
| CartoonCat | daskreech: aptitude finds nothing called libptp, does it have another name | 20:28 |
| Apsel | when i run "scantv" i got this message "device has no tuner" | 20:28 |
| human_ | deokanon I am trying blobwars 1.17 | 20:28 |
| CartoonCat | Apsel: what tuner device do you have | 20:28 |
| deokanon | ah | 20:29 |
| Apsel | CartoonCat: Philips Semiconductors SAA7130 | 20:30 |
| deokanon | human: interesting game | 20:30 |
| deokanon | thanks everyone | 20:31 |
| CartoonCat | Apsel: you need the V4L drivers, and the wiis are in the process of being merged | 20:33 |
| human_ | genii | 20:36 |
| genii | human_: ? | 20:36 |
| Apsel | CartoonCat: how can i get and install the v4l drivers please? | 20:37 |
| daskreech | CartoonCat: It's been rolled into libgphoto2 it seems | 20:37 |
| human_ | Gentlemen, I have found the solution. It is to type " LANG=en_EN.UTF-8 blobwars" in terminal. After blobwars closing the LANG variable is switching back to previous)))) | 20:38 |
| human_ | But Blobwars 1.17 still has a UTF-8 bug(( | 20:38 |
| genii | human_: Since it is not a version which is yet in Ubuntu repositories, any bugs it may have are not the problem of Ubuntu support | 20:38 |
| genii | ( yet ) | 20:38 |
| CartoonCat | daskreech: yea, and the gui part is gtkam (installing that) | 20:38 |
| CartoonCat | Apsel: google, V4L in kubuntu is a PITA, i duno tried to help a friend do it and i wont be trying that again | 20:39 |
| human_ | genii, I have understood it, but the version in the repo is soundless and it is not cool to play blobwars without sound)) | 20:40 |
| human_ | genii, thank you | 20:40 |
| CartoonCat | human_what version are you seeing ? | 20:40 |
| human_ | Gentlemen, good bye, I am to sleep)) | 20:40 |
| Apsel | CartoonCat:ok. thanks | 20:40 |
| genii | human_: The repository version you can report a bug against in this matter. | 20:40 |
| human_ | CartoonCat, 1.17 | 20:41 |
| CartoonCat | Apsel: sorry, some things i just can not do over irc, in person, maybe, still dislike V4L + Kubuntu =\ | 20:41 |
| CartoonCat | human_: im seeing 1.11 | 20:41 |
| daskreech | V4L is in a pretty sad state but better than most other efforts outside of vlc | 20:48 |
| CartoonCat | daskreech: thats likely a fair assumption. the main issue <I> have is that kubuntu doesnt support /proc/config.gz and that is a very important thing to have when the config used is not available | 20:49 |
| daskreech | CartoonCat: bug it? | 20:50 |
| gkffjcs | hey all, where does kdm store it's xauth file? | 20:52 |
| gkffjcs | Or the other thing, how do I disable access control on my xserver? | 20:55 |
| daskreech | man xhost | 20:56 |
| gkffjcs | will using xhost also set my server to listen for external connections, I don't want that, I just want acces control to be off, for any connection from localhost | 20:58 |
| daskreech | Read xhost :) | 21:01 |
| daskreech | you can do that | 21:01 |
| === brian__ is now known as kaitos | ||
| sertac | hi i want to create an application that can listen a specific event on the os | 21:10 |
| sertac | for this purpose dbus seems to be appropriate to me | 21:10 |
| sertac | am i right? | 21:11 |
| daskreech | sertac: Not certain what you are asking. You want to know if the application should listen on dbus? | 21:13 |
| sertac | actually i want to listen for any text selection with some keyboard shortcut | 21:14 |
| sertac | for example, let key combination be ctrl-shift, when i select a text in any application with pressing ctrl+shift my app should be noticed | 21:14 |
| daskreech | Oh then yes Dbus would be useful | 21:15 |
| sertac | but i cannot find any useful docs fo how to do that | 21:16 |
| sertac | can you suggest any | 21:17 |
| eirann | anyone know a chanell something like flare flare | 21:17 |
| daskreech | sertac: what are you programming the application in? | 21:20 |
| sertac | c++ | 21:20 |
| sertac | qt | 21:20 |
| daskreech | sertac: #qt can answer all your questions then | 21:21 |
