[00:08] <damien> bonsoir
[01:29] <cecilfso>  hi people, can anyone help me? i have no sound on flash videos in any browser i try... i'm using kubuntu 9.10 on a 32 bit platform. I'm currently using KDE
[01:30] <jovis> can you get sound from anything?
[01:33] <cecilfso> yes, i have sound on amarok and kaffeine, but not flash videos nor vlc
[01:33] <jovis> which flash plugin did you install
[01:34] <jovis> and which browser
[01:34] <cecilfso> i installed the flash from the adobe page, then i removed it and tried the flashplugin-installer, and the nonfree-extrasound, but nothing yet
[01:34] <cecilfso> i tried opera, firefox and seamonky, and konqueroro as well
[01:35] <jovis> you checked all the mute switches i assume
[01:36] <cecilfso> yes, i did
[01:37] <cecilfso> i tried alsamixer on the terminal and unmuted the PCM as some people suggested, but...
[01:37] <jovis> try wine with IE maybe, i dunno sorry
[01:39] <cecilfso> well, i don't have wine here... but thank you anyway, jovis
[01:39] <jovis> its not hard to get
[01:39] <jovis> yast2 search wine
[01:39] <jovis> it will run IE
[01:40] <jovis> you using alsa or the other one OSS whatever
[01:43] <cecilfso> hey, i'm sorry... well, i have all this here, vlc used OSS usually, but now nothing is working... on sound devices, system has "fallen back" to the soundcard directly
[01:43] <williballenthin> is there a system settings/dialog for changing the window decorations?
[01:45] <dthacker> Hello, I'm getting a very bad looking taskbar after updating to 4.4.1 http://s842.photobucket.com/albums/zz346/dthacker_photo/?action=view&current=bad-taskbar.png
[01:46] <cecilfso> thank you anyway...i must leave...i'll try later again...bye
[02:02] <[Relic]> Hello :)
[02:03] <jovis> hello
[02:03] <[Relic]> Any 9.10 64bit users with a face book account around to check something?
[02:03] <jovis> what are you checking
[02:04] <dthacker> yes
[02:04] <[Relic]> trying to figure out why the text doesn't appear on an app game on facebook, if it is just 64bit or if I missed an install of something
[02:05] <[Relic]> http://img90.imageshack.us/img90/9352/fbwarstormsnapshot.png  <-  all the text that isn't a gfx image or icon is missing
[02:07] <dthacker> cleared cache?  restarted browser?
[02:07] <[Relic]> other users seem to see it just fine but most are windows users
[02:07] <[Relic]> multiple times
[02:08] <[Relic]> trying to figure out if it is a 64bit flash incompatibility thing or something else
[02:10] <dthacker> I get nothing in the middle, just the top and bottom bar.   However I play another flash game without problems.
[02:11] <dthacker> FF 3.5.8
[02:12] <dthacker> back later
[02:12] <[Relic]> thanks
[02:12] <[Relic]> I play a lot of other flash games w/o problems

[03:46] <mintkde> ºhi guys, tragedy hit's me on my face. I renamed a *very* important directory in Dolphin via right-click-->Actions as root-->Rename. I was presented a dialog box with "/home/martin" and I wrongly renamed it to "data" when I presume should be "/home/data". Now, I can't access all the valuable files, helpp me here guys, it's very iimportant
[04:34] <jmcantrell> is there a way to change the wallpaper from the command line or python bindings?
[04:47] <globus> hello all, I got some thing need to ask guru here. It's about file system. When i use "mc" in console and traverse file system and move to some directory( different with current directory before I use mc). Then click F10 to exit mc but the directory now is not the directory which mc pointing to, that's the directory before I use mc. Anybody know how to keep current directory is the place when I exit "mc" ? Thanks !
[06:04] <jason__> so, I just installed kubuntu, and Im very disappointed that I cannot find the application "wifi radar." This is an app I absolutely need at work. How can I get this on kubuntu?
[06:07] <jason__> active chat ://
[06:07] <alakoo> um...by installing it
[06:07] <alakoo> sudo apt-get install wifi-radar
[06:08] <jason__> its not in kpackage kit
[06:08] <alakoo> it's a gnome application but it should work
[06:09] <alakoo> http://packages.ubuntu.com/dapper/all/wifi-radar/download
[06:09] <jason__> apt-get works
[06:09] <jason__> yet, its not in kpackagekit
[06:09] <jason__> why?
[06:09] <alakoo> [08:08] <alakoo> it's a gnome application
[06:09] <jason__> so gnome apps dont appear in kdes repos?
[06:09] <jason__> I thought they shared the same repos
[06:10] <alakoo> dunno, I use synaptic and it's there
[06:10] <jason__> yeah
[06:10] <jason__> kpackagekit is kind of a joke....
[06:10] <jason__> so is the "firefox installer." how about just add it by default and save the 99% of users the trouble of installing it.
[06:11] <alakoo> it annoyed me at least
[06:11] <jason__> what made you choose kubuntu over ubuntu?
[06:12] <alakoo> I've been using both and find KDE more versatile
[06:12] <jason__> yeah. Ive used gnome for a long time with occasional test-drives of KDE.
[06:13] <jason__> Ive always went back to gnome, yet I never had a real reason why. comfort zone, I suppose.
[06:13] <jason__> more familiar territory or whatever
[06:13] <jason__> but I look at some of these KDE installs and they look wicked nice. trying to mess around and see if I can get a sleek dekstop goin with it
[06:15] <alakoo> jason__: btw they do share repos but your package kit shows only kde as default
[06:16] <jason__> I see
[06:16] <jason__> do you use pulse audio with kde
[06:16] <jason__> I had problems galore with kde's audio last time I used it, but didnt use pulse. someone told me I should use pulse....
[06:17] <alakoo> no..just the pulse client libraries, but whatever works
[06:21] <jason__> yeah... just like last time, audio problems with kubuntu. sigh....

[07:19] <amateja> hi, I get 'hub 1-0:1.0: unable to enumerate USB device on port 4' in /var/log/kernel.log while usb drive is plugged in and I'm not able to use any usb drive
[07:20] <amateja> Does anybody come across this issue?
[07:22] <corigo> Bromas: your question is not about Kubuntu but KDE as far as I can tell and about KDE on a multiple desktop systm
[07:22] <corigo> Amateja: new to me
[07:23] <amateja> corigo: First time I met this bug was using PLD Linux and I solved by removing ehci_hcd module
[07:25] <amateja> but in Ubuntu I have no ehci_hcd module loaded
[07:26] <amateja> imho it's not my error, because even kubuntu livecd can't mount any usb drive
[07:26] <amateja> I tested this with kubuntu 9.10 i 10.04 (notebook IBM T42), but on Dell Latitude D630 it's ok

[08:24] <germanjew> can anyone here please help me with setting up a cloiu
[08:25] <germanjew> can anyone here please help me with setting up a cloud*
[08:26] <areichman> germanjew: setting up a cloud? What do you mean?
[08:26] <germanjew> I think I have everything set up right, but when I want to run an instance it takes forever to complete. and then the status goes straight from pending to shutting down
[08:27] <areichman> germanjew: what do you mean when you say cloud?
[08:27] <areichman> are you talking about owncloud, the new kde project?
[08:28] <germanjew> I have a cluster and two nodes, I followed this guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEC/CDInstall
[08:28] <germanjew> no, not the new kde project
[08:29] <germanjew> sorry I don't know how to better describe what I'm trying to do
[08:29] <germanjew> everything is fine, up until step 7.3
[08:29] <areichman> germanjew: sorry, I can't help you :-( I hadn't even heard of UEC until just now

[09:01] <babalu> hi, is there a way to check the battery status in command line? and is there a way to get the computer to sleep when we are without server X? or is that a server X feature?
[09:35] <noaXess> does anybody has a solution for this bug? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cups/+bug/407344
[09:35] <noaXess> is the cups downgrade really the only solution?
[09:35] <noaXess> babalu: think there are command for battery check.. let me check..
[09:36] <babalu> noaXess: i think this one is good: cat /proc/acpi/battery/BAT1/state
[09:37] <noaXess> babalu: yes.. and i think to that there are scripts to put your machine in sleep mode without x..
[09:37] <noaXess> babalu: ls -l /etc/acpi/
[09:38] <babalu> noaXess: oh ok, thanks
[09:39] <rethus> which programm can i use to play audio-cd? amarok doesn't have this feature ?!
[09:42] <ka> Hm seems to mee that sound crashes often in kubuntu 9.10. Any workarounds?
[09:43] <rethus> ka: never crash on my kubuntu
[09:43] <rethus> maybe a special hardware issue
[09:44] <ka> Hm I figured as much although I havn't had this problem before...
[09:45] <rethus> check your hardware and search for hardware-specific issues
[09:45] <ka> I get an error message sasying "Phonon: KDE's Multimedia Library -  The audio playback device  ... does not work."
[09:46] <ka> Maybe I'll just throw 10.04 beta on the box and see if it works...
[09:49] <rethus> maybe try xine-backend
[09:49] <rethus> or have a try to 10.04
[09:52] <Tux_Soul> Hi to all
[09:53] <Tux_Soul> I installed Ubuntu, then installed KDE throught kubuntu-desktop
[09:53] <Tux_Soul> now I'm using amarok
[09:53] <noaXess> does noone has the print problem with cups? /usr/lib/cups/filter/pdftopdf failed
[09:53] <Tux_Soul> but the equalizer option is grayed out
[09:53] <Tux_Soul> why?
[09:56] <Tux_Soul> Hmmmm... :(
[10:03] <ka> Which amarok version are you running
[10:04] <ka> @ Tux_Soul
[10:16] <noaXess> is there a way to backport cups 1.4.2 from lucid to karmic? in lucid there is cups v1.4.2 available, in marmic still v1.4.1 which has some bugs..
[10:22] <Mamarok> noaXess: did you check the backports and porposed repositories?
[10:22] <Mamarok> proposed*
[10:23] <noaXess> Mamarok:  yes.. i think. have backports enabled...
[10:23] <eagles05138785> morning guys
[10:23] <noaXess> i don't really know, if it's a cups problem or any other package..
[10:26] <noaXess> Mamarok: any idea?
[10:28] <noaXess> also also have this ppa enabled deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/dnjl/ppa/ubuntu karmic main and there is this cups version: 1.4.1-5ubuntu2.4.1~dnjl2~karmic0
[10:28] <noaXess> have contacted dnjl and wait for a answer.. but i think the printing problem is not in cups, it' seams it's in another package..
[10:29] <noaXess> Mamarok: proposed are ppackage that are unsupported? in updates i have important, recommended, pre-released and unsupported packages activated..
[10:30] <mahrend> hi
[10:30] <noaXess> and also this: http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-ppa/ppa/ubuntu and http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-ppa/backports/ubuntu... and some others for spec. packages.
[10:30] <mahrend> when kubuntu logs into kde how i can force that i got a busy cursor until kde start is done?
[10:32] <lalalol> HELP!!!!!! i yesterday installed avant window navigator, today i wake up, boot my machine and im running GNOME, HELP!!! i want KDE back
[10:34] <eagles05138785> !patience | lalalol
[10:34] <Mamarok> noaXess: no, check the karmic backports and proposed
[10:34] <eagles05138785> lalalol: are you at the login screen
[10:34] <lalalol> eagles05138785, no, im on the desktop and quassel is opened
[10:35] <eagles05138785> well you need to go back to the login screen and there is a button you press and it gives u options and kde should be listed and you click it then login and u should be on kde
[10:35] <Mamarok> noaXess: my bad, their workding is a bit strange
[10:35] <lalalol> ok
[10:35] <lalalol> brb
[10:35] <noaXess> Mamarok: backports i have enabled, that is http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-ppa/backports/ubuntu tight?
[10:35] <noaXess> right ^
[10:36] <Mamarok> noaXess: no, it is called unsupported apparently, I talk about the regular repositoreis, not the PPA
[10:36] <Mamarok> repositories*
[10:36] <noaXess> Mamarok: okay.. so the four check boxes in kapackagekit, settings, tab updates, right?
[10:37] <Mamarok> cups has nothing to do with KDE, it is a package in the underlying structure of ubuntu, henc if there is a backport it should be in the karmic-backports
[10:37] <Mamarok> noaXess: that would be the ones, yes
[10:37] <noaXess> Mamarok: so i have they enabled..
[10:37] <lalalol> phew
[10:37] <noaXess> seams to not be the solution
[10:38] <Mamarok> noaXess: why do you need a newer Cups version exactly?
[10:38] <lalalol> so eagles05138785, i now have GNOME installed on my machine too cause of that 1 app?
[10:38] <eagles05138785> you shouldnt
[10:38] <Mamarok> lalalol: those are only the libraries
[10:38] <lalalol> Mamarok, how come i was on gnome then? :O i dont understand
[10:39] <noaXess> Mamarok: i get ths error, if i print any, even a test page over cups admin: /usr/lib/cups/filter/pdftopdf failed.. and found this bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cups/+bug/407344 but no solution yet
[10:39] <Mamarok> lalalol: I didn't follow your case exactly, but unless you installed ubuntu-desktop, that would be the only package that drags in Gnome, else it would only be libraries
[10:40]  * Jaimie waves
[10:40] <noaXess> Mamarok: i need to get printing back soon..
[10:41] <lalalol> ok Mamarok
[10:41] <lalalol> eagles05138785, i had like 6 options to choose from, will kde be the default from now on? :)
[10:41] <eagles05138785> lalalol: should be once you log in
[10:41] <Mamarok> noaXess: well, then talk to tillkampeter in this bug report directly, he is the printer wizardry guy, if you still have the bug with that package, it is in the karmic updates AFAICS
[10:42] <lalalol> thx eagles05138785 :)
[10:42] <noaXess> Mamarok: okay..
[10:42] <Mamarok> and the bug should be reopened itf this doesn't fix it
[10:42] <eagles05138785> no problemo lalalol
[10:44] <noaXess> Mamarok: have also make a comment to the bug..
[10:44] <lalalol> eagles05138785, do you happen to have experience with AWN?
[10:45] <eagles05138785> lalalol: whats that
[10:45] <lalalol> eagles05138785, its an app that imitates the dock from OSX
[10:46] <noaXess> Mamarok: where do i get proposed packages? do i have them allready if i checked all checkboxes in updates?
[10:46] <eagles05138785> no i dont have any experience with it
[10:46] <lalalol> and with other docks?
[11:04] <eagles05138785> lalalol: no dock experience
[11:04] <lalalol> k eagles05138785
[11:05] <Mamarok> noaXess: if you checked those and did an update, it should show you the packages to upgrade to
[11:05] <Mamarok> if there are none, you probably already have it
[11:05] <Mamarok> noaXess: else you can check the exact version with that: apt-cache policy cups

[15:58] <jovis> you said 10.4
[15:59] <jovis> the only release I see on the ftp site is called lucid and it says 10.04
[16:00] <Pici> Lord-Rahl : Please join #ubuntu+1 for Lucid/10.04 support/discussion.
[16:02] <Lord-Rahl> Pici: that fine but they tell me to use update manager and gnome i have kde
[16:02] <Lord-Rahl> that*
[16:03] <jovis> why would the window manager have anything to do with it
[16:04] <Lord-Rahl> kubuntu does not have update manager I know of and the command for gnome pre release in update-manager -d or something like
[16:05] <Pici> Lord-Rahl: Then tell them that. #ubuntu+1 is for all 10.04 support, regarless of whether its Kubuktu/Xubuntu or Ubuntu

[16:16] <bigbrovar> Hi guys I am trying to sync my address book contact with google contact using akonadi google-data, although I am able to pull my contacts from google, I am unable to sync my changes to google contacts it says failed adding new contacts. :(
[16:20] <rysiek|pl> bigbrovar: whoa, that's weird to see you here. ;) anywhoo, any other error msgs from Akonadi?
[16:21] <bigbrovar> rysiek|pl: nope just says failed adding new contact :(
[16:21] <bigbrovar> rysiek|pl: does it work for u
[16:22] <bigbrovar> rysiek|pl: is there a way i can get more logs from akonadi?
[16:24] <rysiek|pl> bigbrovar: humm...
[16:24] <lalalol> how do i uninstall a language via the konsole?
[16:24] <rysiek|pl> bigbrovar: I don't export my contacts to gmail (I prefer to keep my private data, well, private)
[16:24] <rysiek|pl> bigbrovar: but there was an akonadi log file somewhere, lemme check
[16:25] <bigbrovar> rysiek|pl: is there a way to keep my contacts synced across all my desktops and devices?
[16:26] <rysiek|pl> bigbrovar: SyncML/OpenSync/KitchenSync/Syncevolution I think might do it, but I never really tried

[16:34] <rysiek|pl> bigbrovar: "syncevolution" ;)
[16:40] <aperson> hmm... all of a sudden X died
[16:40] <aperson> and switching to the 7th TTY doesn't bring be back
[16:41]  * aperson blames amarok - things always go wonky when he uses amarok to transfer music to his ipod
[16:45] <Mamarok> aperson: a dying X is more likely a graphic driver problem, unlikely it is due to an app
[16:46] <aperson> Mamarok, then why does my system only ever lock up and go wonky when I'm transferring music via amarok?
[16:46] <aperson> it never happens otherwise
[16:46] <Mamarok> ask in #amarok?
[16:47] <aperson> lets try this again, fresh boot this time
[16:50] <aperson> yeah, sadly I usually do get better answers if I don't ask them here :)
[16:56] <zus> does anyone know how to flip windows? its like alt-tab ecept the window turns around i seen it on one of the youtube videos the guy said it was a compiz feature??? (and also when does kubuntu 10.4 come out?)
[16:56] <Vroomfondle> kubuntu doesn't use compiz unless you've re-configured it
[16:57] <Vroomfondle> it uses KDE4's in-built compositing engine
[16:57] <zus> i am using it from  sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[16:57] <Vroomfondle> which AFAIK doesn't do that effect (I could be wrong)
[16:57] <Vroomfondle> then it's using the standard KDE compositing
[16:57] <Vroomfondle> compiz doesn't work very well with KDE
[16:58] <zus> i've seen kubuntu on the live disc a few times but i've only been using this for 2 days... i really like it
[16:59] <Vroomfondle> there's a reference to a "flip switch" effect in the KDE4.4 release goals - dunno if that's the same sort of thing (Kubuntu presently uses KDE4.3)
[16:59] <Vroomfondle> yeah, it's a decent desktop environment
[17:00] <zus> what got me was the tree view when looking in folders.... other than that i like the simplicity of nautilus and gnome just as much...
[17:03] <zus> well its almost like having two windows open but lined up back to back and when ya switch the window itself turns over. was amusing to see, and would like to try it over the window dodge effect,..well i havent set up any eye candy on the kde session
[17:06] <zus> now what about wallpapers and icons and sounds? since i used gnome and the terminal and installed the kubuntu-desktop (though i made the kde default) are the folders and icon installation still the same?
[17:11] <zus> how can i find out what kde i am using kde 3   or kde 4
[17:15] <babalu> zus: in a kde application you can go in the Help menu and 'About KDE'
[17:15] <zus> babalu,  thank you.
[17:21] <zus> im using kubuntu, can i use the mint KDE themes? , hehe after a while this is TOO much blue
[17:23] <avihay> visit kde-looks, yhere's boud to be something for your taste
[17:23] <zus> im here now
[17:23] <zus> there **
[17:23] <zoiss> hey guys. after upgrading to kde4.4.1 via backports my plasma workspace crashes every time i shut down/restart/log off. the placement of items on the control bar therefore is discarded. did anyone encounter the same problem?

[17:39] <BluesKaj> nacho2k, itshould be available in your package manager or apt in the terminal
[17:39] <nacho2k> BluesKaj: I am trying with apt-get
[17:39] <BluesKaj> nacho2k,in the terminal, sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-mga
[17:40] <nacho2k> BluesKaj: I have already installed it says...

[21:21] <unixxbaby> in same hdd
[21:21] <vadmin> how install a .rpm in kubuntu
[21:22] <unixxbaby> in same partition
[21:22] <vadmin> unixxbaby , with vmware
[21:22] <unixxbaby> no...
[21:23] <unixxbaby> i partitioner it my hdd
[21:23] <unixxbaby> so 5o are win 7 and there ander one is kde 4.4
[21:24] <unixxbaby> so now i need to acc the both in order to shere file like music and move so on
[21:24] <djustice> anybody here use convertxtodvd?
[21:25] <vadmin> yes , i explain  for me i install kubuntu in vmware and in vm exist a utility to share a partition hgfs
[21:25] <unixxbaby> are i need too access the win 7 partitison it give err text as soon i clik on win hdd
[21:25] <James147> unixxbaby: you can access all win 7 files in kubuntu but you cant the other way around. The only way to share files both ways is to have a seprate partition formatted as vfat or ntfs
[21:25] <vadmin> /mnt/hgfs
[21:27] <unixxbaby> jammes son now anther way .....??
[21:27] <unixxbaby> soo½!
[21:27] <lalalol> my calendar sets sunday as the first day: wth?
[21:28] <unixxbaby> why cant we access the win 7 hdd in side the kde 4.4? help :)
[21:28] <lalalol> and when i click adjust date & time, it shows monday as first day in that window, but the calendar itself doesnt update, is there a fix for this?
[21:28] <James147> unixxbaby: you cant access extX from windows unless you use the ext drivers for windows (but they havent been maintained in years and I am not sure how safe they are). So only other way would be to store everything on the windows partition
[21:29] <James147> unixxbaby: you should beable to acces win 7 from linux
[21:29] <vadmin> p7zip
[21:29] <James147> unixxbaby: I think you need to be root to mount it though, so dolphin can't mount them
[21:30] <unixxbaby> okej,,,, so what do i need to mount the win 7 hdd?
[21:30] <iconmefisto> !info ntfs-config | unixxbaby
[21:30] <unixxbaby> i got the kubuntu 10.04 beat
[21:32] <iconmefisto> unixxbaby: I think there is a bug in dolphin kde 4.4 where it doesn't mount filesystems
[21:32] <unixxbaby> okej
[21:33] <lalalol> doh! i removed the clock from my taskbar and cant add it back
[21:33] <unixxbaby> i understand be coze the kde 4.4 is not the full os get right...
[21:34] <unixxbaby> so u now ppl i now to linux :)
[21:35] <James147> unixxbaby: how much do you know about command line?
[21:35] <unixxbaby> but the kde rocks,,,,:)  tnx to u r ppl how put hard work in to it
[21:35] <iconmefisto> unixxbaby: if you use ntfs-config, windows partitions should be automounted and ready to use
[21:35] <unixxbaby> lol
[21:35] <unixxbaby> not match
[21:36] <unixxbaby> i m mac user :)
[21:36] <lalalol> why does the calendar from my clock on the taskbar show sunday as 1st day? :@@@@@@@@
[21:36] <unixxbaby> sh command understand lil:)
[21:37] <unixxbaby> i do ..,
[21:37] <unixxbaby> but still got som err
[21:37] <unixxbaby> some
[21:37] <RedXIII> http://imagebin.ca/view/uWc5n68w.html <- I'm having this problem while using x11vnc over vncviewer
[21:37] <RedXIII> Anyone have any idea?
[21:38] <unixxbaby> the win 7 is ntfs partition ...
[21:38] <unixxbaby> that why i don understand why i con"t mount the hdd ...
[21:39] <James147> unixxbaby: sudo mount -t ntfs /dev/sdXX /path/to/mount/point   <- where /dev/sdXX is the device id and /path/... is the path to where you want it mounted
[21:39] <iconmefisto> lalalol: check time & date settings in systemsettings > country/region & language
[21:39] <lalalol> iconmefisto, i have, its OK, but that calendar doesnt update or so :S
[21:40] <unixxbaby> ntfs-3g: Failed to access volume '/dev/sdXX': No such file or directory

[21:40] <iconmefisto> lalalol: changes to settings won't show until you log out and log in again
[21:40] <James147> unixxbaby: you need to change /dev/sdXX with the actual partition number
[21:40] <unixxbaby> sorry my bad
[21:41] <unixxbaby> how?
[21:41] <James147> unixxbaby: use sudo fdisk -l  to list the drives
[21:41] <lalalol> my bad iconmefisto
[21:41] <lalalol> iconmefisto, i have 1 more problem though, the dates are shown in my mother tongue
[21:42] <lalalol> but i want everything in english
[21:43] <iconmefisto> lalalol: do you have english in the language list in the locale tab?
[21:44] <lalalol> yup!
[21:44] <lalalol> its the only one
[21:45] <iconmefisto> lalalol: what about the button "select system language"? maybe that will fix things for you?
[21:46] <lalalol> ill click that ^^
[21:47] <lalalol> meh, its not that big of a deal, maybe itll be fixed on reboot or so, ill see tomorrow, thx :)
[21:48] <lalalol> oh wait
[21:48] <lalalol> 1 more thing
[21:48] <lalalol> can i make synaptic look more kdelike?
[21:49] <Typos_King> kdelike?
[21:49]  * Typos_King scratches head
[21:49] <lalalol> yeah, making it look more like a kde app
[21:50] <lalalol> it looks like a windows 95 app atm
[21:50] <Typos_King> not sure how much skinning you can do to it
[21:50] <Typos_King> it may not allow much other than for window decorations, which are provided by the window manager already
[21:51] <lalalol> i once had it have the same, but i cant remember how
[21:52] <lalalol> gonna google it
[21:53] <unixxbaby> it works out well did change the partition tnx you 4 all hard word in to the os .... love the kde 4.4
[21:55] <iconmefisto> lalalol: I think it's because it runs as root, and the root user appearance settings are different to your normal user settings. try changing appearance settings with kdesudo systemsettings
[21:56] <James147> unixxbaby: you will want to add a line to /etc/fstab if you want the partitions to be mounted again when you reboot
[21:57] <unixxbaby> okej tnxxx :)
[21:59] <lalalol> still ugly as hell lol
[22:02] <jeanmohabstlouis> hi
[22:13] <ybit> any ideas why amarok fails to play me mp3s?: xine_open for gapless playback failed!
[22:13] <ybit> skips all of them and tells me there are too many errors
[22:15] <iconmefisto> ybit: can you play mp3s with other players?
[22:15] <ybit> iconmefisto: yup, np
[22:18] <Typos_King> maybe reinstall amarok
[22:18] <Typos_King> :)
[22:18] <Typos_King> there's a new version of it btw
[22:18] <Typos_King> 2.3 I think
[22:18]  * Typos_King uses audacious
[22:19] <iconmefisto> ybit: install libxine1-all-plugins and restart amarok
[22:19] <iconmefisto> !info libxine1-all-plugins
[22:20] <ybit> well that works
[22:20] <ybit> thanks iconmefisto
[22:20] <iconmefisto> ybit: working now?
[22:20] <ybit> yup
[22:20] <Typos_King> ahemm or just install xine-ui,   is a better player than dragofly anywway :P
[22:20] <ybit> tanks a lot :)
[22:20] <Typos_King> and I think that comes with all thos libs :P
[22:21] <Typos_King> amarok for me plays mp3s, but that after I insalled audacious which installed many audio libraries, it didn't before,now it does ehhe
[22:21] <Typos_King> used to play wav and ogg only before though :)
[22:27] <zus> where is the update manager in kubuntu?
[22:27] <zus> am i over looking something some place?
[22:29] <iconmefisto> zus: kpackagekit? or the update notifier?
[22:30] <Typos_King> zus  is kpackagekit
[22:30] <zus> iconmefisto, to update the machine and packages
[22:31] <zus> thanks
[22:32] <zus> i see it i realized the explanation is in bold above the name of the item..
[22:34] <Matisse> hi
[22:35] <Matisse> since upgrade to kde 4.4 kwin (kde-window-decorator) crashes after login
[22:35] <Matisse> how do i solve that problem?
[22:35] <Matisse> (manually typing kwin --replace works fine)
[22:38] <Typos_King> Matisse:    try with -> sudo dpkg-reconfigure kwin;
[22:38] <FremenBlue> !grub2
[22:39] <Matisse> Typos_King, thx, maybe that'll do the trick
[22:46] <FremenBlue> hey, i just set Default in /etc/default/grub to entry 2, that would be the correct entry for the previous kernel right? because entry 0 and 1 are the new kernel and new kernel recovery?
[22:49] <iconmefisto> FremenBlue: right, the default will now be the 3rd item in the grub menu instead of the 1st
[22:55] <damien__> ass
[22:59] <zus> whats the diference on  kubuntu dvd or cd?  that one ya have to buy and the other can be ordered or downloaded free?
[23:00] <Typos_King> sizes :)
[23:00] <Typos_King> that's about it
[23:01] <Typos_King> the dvd will be about 5gbs, including piles of archived apps, the cd just 700mbs with the OS and some apps :)
[23:01] <James147> zus: I think the dvd contains more packages on it so you can install more things from the dvd
[23:07] <iconmefisto> zus: you can download the dvd too. it's just harder to find a link for the dvd downloads
[23:07] <Typos_King> harder?
[23:08] <iconmefisto> Typos_King: harder than finding links to cd images on ubuntu or kubuntu sites
[23:08] <zus> i made a kubuntu disk and it wouldnt work for some reason, it hangs up but it worked well on my other machine....
[23:08] <Typos_King> ahemm hehe
[23:08] <Typos_King> well,  I found all in one folder...sooo
[23:09] <Typos_King> but I guess they're not upfront on the site...though I seem to recall they have a link there for both
[23:09] <Typos_King> zus:   define 'hangs'
[23:09] <iconmefisto> Typos_King: folder? I'm talking about links on websites. eg "download now" links
[23:10] <Typos_King> hehe
[23:10] <iconmefisto> Typos_King: what's funny?
[23:10] <Typos_King> yes, I mean I found an folder, with the .iso, I think it was an ftp
[23:10] <zus> Typos_King,  well after the logo, it goes blacks and an _ blinks and stays till i do something like turn of the machine and give up.
[23:10] <Typos_King> might have been an http, can't recall, it showed the dvd and also a selection of about 15cds too
[23:11] <Typos_King> zus:     retry, stick the live-cd, before pressing enter, press F6, check acpi=off and noapic from those boot options, then press Enter
[23:12] <zus> one time it did it for a few minutes then i  couldnt wait rebooted, then another time i wound up watching television for an hour and it didnt change at all
[23:12] <Typos_King> F6 has a few more boot options, if you think you could use more, but usually I've had issues with the APM module, at least on some hardware, so turning it off works
[23:12] <zus> Typos_King,  i had to use my ubuntu disc and then install the desktop session
[23:13] <Typos_King> ?
[23:13] <Typos_King> install the..?   well...  soooo...how.... I mean.that's the regular installation
[23:14] <zus> yeah in the end all is well,
[23:15] <zus> im still learning  hehe been on linux for almost 4 5 months?
[23:17] <zus> actually some one told me to go to www.kubuntu.org and get a ppa for firefox 3.6 and upgrade kde3.5 to kde4.? im looking on the site now...im a bit lost atm
[23:17] <Typos_King> soooo
[23:17] <Typos_King> ...
[23:17] <Typos_King> and upgrade... why?
[23:18] <Typos_King> why not install kubuntu 9.1, might as well
[23:18] <iconmefisto> zus: is that for firefox with kde integration?
[23:20] <zus> wanted to stay with the most recent stable release, firefox  is my main browser
[23:21] <Typos_King> soo
[23:21] <Typos_King> that'll be 9.1
[23:21] <Typos_King> :)
[23:21] <Typos_King> maybe you should just get 9.1 which comes with kde4
[23:23] <zus> i thought i seen kde 3.4  in one of the help menus
[23:23] <iconmefisto> zus: if you're going to upgrade, maybe wait till april when 10.04 will be released
[23:24] <zus> few more weeks, agree.
[23:27] <zus> when is lucid comming out?
[23:28] <zus> when in april
[23:28] <iconmefisto> zus: never any date. they always say "when it's ready"
[23:30] <James147> zus: It says the 29th on the release secedual but it can be late :)
[23:30] <zus> thank you all for the help and suggestions. i do appreciate it.
[23:31] <Dragnslcr> zus- https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LucidReleaseSchedule is the complete schedule
[23:31] <zus> is it still going to be  "blue"?
[23:32] <James147> zus: Yes
[23:32] <James147> zus: Unless they go to major changes in the last minute, which is very unlikly :p
[23:34] <zus> i love the mints color scheme. bright enough, yet dark enough. green and grey are my fave colors blue is also but  this is too much blue lol
[23:35] <James147> zus: :) at least its not hard to change all the colours
[23:37] <zus> no my gnome session is green...then i found out about mint... and that theyre also not ubuntu... there is so many choices,..and so much to learn.
[23:38] <iconmefisto> zus: if you want to learn, ubuntu is a good choice. it has great support forums
[23:40] <zus> yea, i like ubuntu...the  Kde though, what sold me was the different views when managing files. didnt hurt that it was blue too, feels more "me" i dont have to use a wallpaper to get comfy either.
[23:41] <Matisse> Typos_King, didnt help (crashing kwin   -> sudo dpkg-reconfigure kwin)
[23:41] <damien__> what is the best gome or kde?
[23:42] <Matisse> damien__, windows
[23:43] <genii> !best
[23:43] <Guest77693> chrome installation prob: following directions, double-clicking chrome in downloads window of ffox spawns choose "application  to open"
[23:44] <genii> damien__: Depending on your workflow, aesthetics, and other considerations, the desktop environment which fits you could be anything (KDE, GNOME, XFCE, Enlightenment, etc)
[23:45] <James147> Guest77693: try clicking it in dolphin
[23:45] <James147> Guest77693: Or try opening it with "gdebi-kde"
[23:45] <iconmefisto> Guest77693: the app to open would be /usr/bin/gdebi-kde
[23:47] <Matisse> genii, #ubuntu-bots is cool :)
[23:53] <mrunagi> kubuntu have issues with secured wireless on hp dv6000t?
[23:53] <damien__> i search a cubeinterface  for gnome
[23:54] <PsychoticEGG> I have a 32" HDTV that is set as my one and only monitor and the Resolution isn't fitting in it properly. any way to manually resize would be handy. Input is DVI to HDMI from and Nvidia 9800 GSO
[23:54] <PsychoticEGG> The top and bottom bars are just out of sight
[23:55] <PsychoticEGG> I assume same for left and right
[23:55] <James147> PsychoticEGG: System settings-> Display    if you cant do it there then you might need to edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[23:55] <zus> i cant log into the kubuntu forums with my ubuntu  name and pass could i?
[23:55] <zus> ubuntu forum** ^
[23:55] <PsychoticEGG> ya can't do it in display.
[23:56] <damien__> who i find the sources.list of bt4
[23:56] <PsychoticEGG> even after installing nvidia drivers
[23:56] <PsychoticEGG> how do I edit it?
[23:57] <James147> PsychoticEGG: The esiest way with nvidia is to use nvidia-settings (run as root)
[23:57] <PsychoticEGG> O.o? I'm new to ubuntu and never had this with windows. so don't know how.
[23:58] <James147> PsychoticEGG: in konsole or krunner type "kdesudo nvidia-settings"
[23:58] <PsychoticEGG> terminal?
[23:58] <James147> PsychoticEGG: yes
[23:59] <genii> terminal/console/konsole equally
[23:59] <PsychoticEGG> The program 'kdesudo' is currently not installed.  You can install it by typing:
[23:59] <PsychoticEGG> sudo apt-get install kdesudo
[23:59] <PsychoticEGG> kdesudo: command not found
[23:59] <damien__> i want to change the color terminal
