areichmanvivek_: http://www.kubuntu.org/news/kde-sc-4.4.206:48
vivek_areichman: I have seen that but some ppl have told me that  leads to lot of issues... So i would like to know whether it would in fact lead to any broken issues and all06:49
areichmanvivek_: I have no idea but those are the official instructions on how to do it06:52
areichmaneven if there are problems, it's still probably the _best_ way to do it06:53
areichmanusing software before the distribution has a chance to iron out kinks will often lead to problems06:53
areichmanit'ss probably a good idea to wait 17 more days until 10.04 comes out06:54
iconmefisto_vivek_: it might lead to issues, it might not. it depends on both your hardware and your software (what you have installed, how it is set up, etc) how could we know?06:54
vivek_areichman: but KDE 4.4 has been realeased sometime around in Feb.. dont you think it should be given a try now.. because by the time 10.04 comes out it would already be 3 months and then in another 3 months you have a new version of KDE coming out06:55
iconmefisto_vivek_: but if you do run into problems, I doubt they will be so serious that you would have to reinstall. in other words, the problems that may arise from the upgrade can be fixed later.06:55
EagleScreenvivek_: you can try it out, but karmic was made with 4.3 in mind, so not be scared if you find some kind of issue06:56
areichmanvivek_: it depends on what level of hassle you're willing to deal with. I'm running what will become KDE 4.5, compiling it from trunk but I also deal with a lot of issues because of it06:56
el3mentcan u help me with my weather gadget Weather Forecast i cant find any location im try everything :|06:56

vivek_iconmefisto_: hmmm thanks .. by the way guys what is there so different in KDE4.406:57
el3mentnothing06:57
areichmanlots of stuff. Plasma looks a lot nicer, window tabbing works, nepomuk becomes usable06:58

el3mentwhere im wrong07:05

=== xrandr_laptop is now known as Guest63547
vivek_el3ment: one last question .. has your RAM usage increased after the upgrade.. i have heard lot of ppl complaing about that08:18
iconmefisto_el3ment: to add the ppa to your sources: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:samrog131/ppa08:18
el3mentvivek_: yes /.08:19
vivek_el3ment: how much is it now.. if I may ask08:19
iconmefisto_el3ment: then update, and install plasma-widget-yawp08:19
vivek_iconmefisto_: why does this RAM usage suddenly increase after the upgrade08:20
iconmefisto_vivek_: I don't know. I haven't noticed any problem with that08:20
vivek_i have heard it goes from 200 MB RAm to close 700 MB ram when idle08:20
iconmefisto_vivek_: oh, one reason may be nepomuk search being enabled. it's disabled by default in kde 4.3 on kubuntu I think08:21
vivek_iconmefisto_: I guess I am going to do the upgrade your way.... through the console rather than through kpack but the command that you gave for adding repository does not work.. can you please paste that command again08:21
iconmefisto_vivek_: well nepomuk shouldn't make that much of a difference, so it must be something else08:22
vivek_iconmefisto: by the way what is so special about nepomuk ,... waht is it actually.. am very new to all this.. hope you understand08:22
iconmefisto_vivek_: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:kubuntu-ppa/backports08:22
el3mentCould not find requested component yaWP08:23
el3ment0o08:23
vivek_iconmefisto: repository added.. after that please next command08:23
el3menticonmefisto_:  ?08:24
iconmefisto_vivek_: nepomuk allows file indexing and searching, so you can search for file contents, tags, email contacts, etc, as well as filenames08:24
iconmefisto_vivek_: sudo apt-get update08:24
vivek_should that eat up 400 MB of extra RAM08:24
vivek_should it be sudo apt-get update or sudo aptitude update08:24
el3menticonmefisto_: why im get this err when try do add widget yaWP ?08:25
vivek_el3ment: wht is your RAM usage now08:25
iconmefisto_vivek_: I doubt nepomuk would use that much ram, but I'm not sure. maybe while the indexing is taking place, but once the index is created, it should be fine08:25
el3menticonmefisto_:  Could not find requested component yaWP08:25
el3mentvivek_:  sec08:25

vivek_iconmefisto_:should it be sudo apt-get update or sudo aptitude update08:26
el3menticonmefisto_:  yes08:26
iconmefisto_vivek_: apt-get or aptitude. both do the same job08:27
vivek_iconmefisto_: ok after that08:28
iconmefisto_vivek_: then sudo apt-get dist-upgrade, or sudo aptitude full-upgrade08:28
el3mentvivek_:  we will make iconmefisto_ crazy :D08:28
vivek_iconmefisto_: thanks a tonne for all your patience and support08:29
vivek_by the way el3ment: RAM usage?? .. lol08:29
iconmefisto_vivek_: no prob. so it's upgrading now?08:29
vivek_iconmefisto_: yes it is hope everything is fine... lol08:30
vivek_so what do i use after that dist-upgarde or full -upgrade08:30
vivek_iconmefisto_: I have installed LAMP on my system.. would it go after this update08:31
iconmefisto_vivek_: restart X (log out, and restart X server from the login menu) or  just reboot08:31
el3mentvivek_:  663 mb ram uage08:31
el3menticonmefisto_: so abut my err ?08:32
vivek_that is huge el3ment: iconmefisto_: was linux not meant to be light.. any expert comments on this?08:32
el3mentvivek_:  i have 8 gb ram :) not big for me08:32
vivek_that is cool.. i have a poor 2GB.. lol08:33
vivek_8 GB RAM el3ment: wow what are you doing with all that RAM.. supercomputer08:33
iconmefisto_vivek_: I'm not really an expert :) but I've heard that mem usage on linux should be high, because free ram (not used by apps) is used to cache files, which makes general performance faster08:34
vivek_oh!! ok08:34
iconmefisto_vivek_: so lots of RAM on linux improves performance, even if you're not actively using it08:35
vivek_hmmm so I should buy at least another 6 GB of RAM asap08:35
vivek_cool ...08:35
vivek_ok iconmefisto_: el3ment time to reboot.. pray for me08:36
iconmefisto_el3ment: I'm not sure why yawp isn't working. is the widget in place, or does it just not add anything at all?08:37
el3ment_iconmefisto_:  yes widget is in the list pannel08:41
el3ment_but when im try to add im get this err08:41
iconmefisto_el3ment_: you upgraded to 4.4 after reinstall?08:42
el3ment_yes08:43
iconmefisto_el3ment_: you have the karmic version installed, which is made for kde4.3. if you manually download the lucid package (which is for kde 4.4) it should work08:45
el3ment_hmm im in network with my netgear modem but my other pcs cant connect to wireless network because of this linux ? or im restart the router but still cant connect08:46

vivekcan someone here tell me how to use nepomuk and what exactly is it10:40
bigbrovarvivek: nepomuk from what I know is suppose to be the search backend for kde.  Its just is to index your files and then u can use it (I think its what strigi uses as a backend for searching)10:46
bigbrovarvivek: so in layman term it helps you index all files so you can search with it. How can it be enabled? go to system settings and on the "advanced" tab took for "desktop search" and the enable nepomuk and strigi desktop search10:48

bigbrovarvivek: well am not surprised because you upgraded to kde 4.4 in a way not supported by ubuntu. what is likely the issue is conflict of config files between kde 4.3 and kde 4.4.12:22
iconmefistovivek: try alt-F2 and type plasma-desktop12:22
vivekiconmefisto:typede plasma-desktop nothing came12:23
bigbrovarthe way I went about this would be to rename all my kde config files and restart kde so that it starts in a pristine state. but u would lose all your user settings12:23
bigbrovarbrb12:23
viveki can access everything through alt-f2 but nothing on the dektop.. it is a black screen12:24
vivekhelp me out pleasee12:24
iconmefistovivek: ctrl-esc and see if plasma-desktop is running12:25

bigbrovarvivek:  btw what is your twitter handle15:48
vivekbigbrovar:I used this microblogging widget and i configured it using my id and pwd .. it does work.. but every 2  seconds the pop up appears again asking me to input my pwd and username again and again15:50
vivekbigbrovar: it is not for me , it is for my wife.. i dont use twitter15:50
bigbrovarvivek: I guess that is a bug then. have u tried choqok? its what I use for twittering and its the best there is anywhere15:50
vivekchoqok .. how do i get it15:51
vivekbigbrovar:choqok .. how do i get it15:51
bigbrovarthen what u need is choqok.. hold one let me give u the link to the latest version15:51
vivekthanks bigbrovar:15:51
bigbrovarvivek: http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-ppa/beta/ubuntu/pool/main/c/choqok/choqok_0.9.55a-0ubuntu1~karmic1~ppa3_i386.deb15:53
bigbrovarvivek: once u download it just double click to install15:53
bigbrovarthe name is choqok15:54
vivekbigbrovar: i dont get it.. should i add it to repository...and click update15:54
bigbrovarsure u can do that too, but the repo for the latest beta version of choqok is a bit too bleeding edge since all u need is choqok just install the .deb file15:55
bigbrovarvivek: if u click on the link i sent u, u would see a deb file which u can install by double clicking15:56
vivekbigbrovar:thanks ....will update and revert ...15:58

AuthorityIs there a way to have apt/aptitude ignore certain packages from certain repo.  I don't want to have it hold my package at a specific version, I just don't want to upgrade to versions from a particular repo.16:44
saferPici: http://www.pasteall.org/1234916:45
Picisafer: Looks like you don't have the linux-image package installed, so apt won't try to upgrade it.  Install that, and it will pull in the latest kernel version in the repositories  as a dependency.16:46
saferPici: to do this need i do an "aptitude install linux-image"?16:48

contrastGreets, everyone. I'm having some trouble adding SuperKaramba widgets as plasmoids. After installing one, when I try to add it to the desktop, it just says "This object could not be created for the following reason: Could not locate the <theme-name> package required for the <theme-name> widget." Any help with this would be much appreciated. :)18:19
vivekk00pa: i did install unrar too .. but when i click on the rar file which is to be unrarred.. it uses ark as default which obviously does not work.. so when i try "open with" neither unrar nor 7 zip is listed there although i have instaled both of them18:20
k00payeaa18:21
k00pavivek: but could you just open 7zip and extract the rar from there?18:21
k00paor do you extract rars all the time18:21
vivekk00pa: i do have a lot of rar files..18:21
k00paunrar *.rar18:22
k00paand all of them are extracted!18:22

k00pano..18:22
vivekiconmefisto: yes18:22
k00pabut for me it would be the easiest18:22
contrastArk has always worked fine for me on rar's.18:23
vivekk00pa: hmm tell me something through gui too.. would help me a lot.. and throuigh the terminal how do i tell it where to extract18:23
vivekcontrast: how ... it is not working for me at all18:23
contrastvivek: Do you have these packages installed: p7zip-rar unrar18:24
vivekwhen i click on the *.rar file .. it says.."reading the archive *.rar,failed with eror,"failed to locate program unrar in path"18:25
k00pavivek: "sudo apt-get install unrar"18:25
k00paand that should be fixed18:25
vivekcontrast: i installed 7zip and unrar18:25
contrastvivek: Well, I never click on it, I just right-click and use the Extract service menu.18:26
vivekcontrast: even that is not working k00pa: but i have already installed unrar18:26
djusticevivek: 'kbuildsycoca4' and try again. or logout & login if that doesnt work.18:27
k00paweird18:27
contrastvivek: Are these .rar's in a series, like .r00 .r01 .r02...?18:27
djusticevivek: what does '/usr/bin/unrar' output?18:27
vivekno contrast: it is just one *.rar.. not the split files18:28
djusticevivek: 'unrar x my_rar_file.rar' is the command you want. if you cant get ark working.18:28
vivekdjustice: but how do i tell it where to extract18:29
vivekguys is it because i have installed them through the software centre and not through kpack... should i uninstall them and try installing through kpack if that would be of any help18:30

contrastYup. The widgets install fine, but when I try to add it, I just get this: "This object could not be created for the following reason: Could not locate the <theme-name> package required for the <theme-name> widget."18:50
djusticecontrast: that means your missing a scriptengine i think..18:53
contrastHrm... Well, before when I was missing a scriptengine, it would specify that it couldn't locate the script engine. Here, it's just saying it couldn't locate the widget itself, even though it's showing up in the list of widgets. :/18:55

Izinucsrork: the one that comes with 9.1019:14
Izinucs4.3.219:14
Izinucssorry.. that was contact.. KMail is 1.12.219:14

vivekthanks iconmefisto:19:16
rorkIzinucs: oh, looks like you beat me :)19:17
vivekiconmefisto: i just installed KlamAv but it is nowhere in my Kmenu19:18
vivekiconmefisto: used the software manager to update it19:18
iconmefistovivek: it sometimes takes a while for new things to show up in the menu. run kbuildsycoca in konsole, then look again19:19
=== romulo_ is now known as promulo_
iconmefistovivek: kbuildsycoca BUILDs the SYstem COnfiguration CAche19:21
vivekiconmefisto: done but it is still not there.. should a restrt be done19:21
iconmefistovivek: does clamav have a gui? maybe it's commandline19:24
vivekiconmefisto: there is another quite peculiar issue.. i can use synaptic and software center perfectly .. but whenever I use kPack after the upgrade to kde4.4... it opens , i select the package in kpack and after that it says "you dont have sufficient prviliges to do that operation"19:24
vivekiconmefisto: it had a gui in gnome i remeber .. but yes it was ClamAV.. and this is KlamAV..it is quite possible it is commandline.. let me check on that19:25
vivekiconmefisto: meanwhile please have a look at the above one19:25

mac7got kubuntu 9.10 installed with nice interface but now gnome?19:33
mac7can someone hlep19:33
mac7help?19:33
vivekiconmefisto: uninstalled and intsllaed again.. got it in kmenu>app>system19:36
vivekiconmefisto: is there some solution you know about my kpack issues19:38
iconmefistovivek: the kpackagekit problem, does it ask for your password? maybe you typed it wrong?19:38
vivekiconmefisto: tried again.. does not ask for any password... just that after I click apply.. it says querying.. waiting for service to start and then the pop up appears saying.. "you dont have permissions"19:41
iconmefistovivek: not sure what's wrong. does it always do this since 4.4 upgrade?19:47
iconmefistovivek: how do you normally start it? from the menu?19:48
vivekiconmefisto: am not exacly sure about it ... I just discovered that an hour back.. but I am happier using synaptic and software manager... yes i start it from the menu19:48
iconmefistovivek: you know that you can use only one package manager at a time. if you have synaptic running, then kpackagekit will not install anything19:53
vivekiconmefisto: yes i know that.. and am not doing that.. moreover when that happens it displays a message saying.. unable to lock .. something like that..19:54
iconmefistovivek: anyway, you could get around it probably by alt-F2, kdesudo kpackagekit19:54
mac7hello?19:54
vivekiconmefisto: but would i have to do that everytime i use kpack19:54
vivekiconmefisto: why do we use kdesudo .. wont just sudo work19:56
iconmefistovivek: you shouldn't need to. but you could use the menu editor and find kpackagekit, and insert kdesudo before the kpackagekit command19:56
iconmefistovivek: you should use kdesudo for gui apps, not sudo19:56
iconmefisto!sudo19:56
ubottusudo is a command to run command-line ( see !cli ) programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome, XFCE), or !kdesudo (KDE)19:56
arch0njwiconmefisto: there's something I've been curious about.  why?19:57
vivekiconmefisto:oh ok.. will try the menu editor and get back19:57
iconmefistoubottu used to have a link that explained why you shouldn't use sudo with gui apps19:57
ubottuError: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :)19:57
iconmefisto!kdesudo19:58
ubottuIn KDE use « kdesudo <program> » (or « kdesu <program> » for Feisty and earlier) to run graphical applications with root privileges when you have to. Never just use "sudo"! | See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to find out why19:58
arch0njwdid you mean that or kdesu?19:58
iconmefistoahh, there's the link19:58
vivekiconmefisto: i have located it in the menu editor but where doi insert kde sudo19:59
arch0njw!kdesu19:59
ubottuIn KDE use « kdesudo <program> » (or « kdesu <program> » for Feisty and earlier) to run graphical applications with root privileges when you have to. Never just use "sudo"! | See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to find out why19:59
arch0njwkdesudo is kind of funny... going to that from kdesu is the opposite of the letter-chopping that most 'nix commands are famous for :)20:00
iconmefistovivek: put it in the command field, before kpackagekit20:00
arch0njwgood explanation there though20:00

mac7Can someone help, please?20:01
vivekiconmefisto: in the commandfield it shows "kpackagekit -caption "%c" %i %F".. should i change it to "kdesudo kpackagekit -caption "%c" %i %F"..20:01

vivekiconmefisto:when i open kpack from the menu, a pop up  appears which says "KDEint could not launch usr/bin/kdesudo" .. along with it the kpack also opens though20:04
vivekiconmefisto:kpack does work now .. but that pop up?????20:06
iconmefistovivek: alt-F2, kdesudo (on it's own, just to see if it starts)20:07
vivekiconmefisto: it starts and a pop up appears saying "no command arguments supplied No command arguments supplied!Usage: kdesudo [-u <runas>] <command>KdeSudo will now exit...20:08
natmanhas anyone any thoughs on the lucid beta 2?20:09
iconmefistovivek: don't know. next time you reboot, try starting kpackagekit from konsole, without kdesudo, and see if it lets you install things. if it does, remove the kdesudo you just added from the menu20:10
vivekiconmefisto: should i just type kpackagekit in the terminal at the prompt20:11
iconmefistovivek: yes20:11
vivekok iconmefisto: thanks buddy..... will let you know of it20:12
iconmefistonatman: quite a few bugs atm. see #ubuntu+1 (the lucid support channel)20:14

vivekiconmefisto: one last question for the day if are free enough ... what is this entire concept of desktop activity20:15
vivekiconmefisto: and what could i do with it20:15
iconmefistovivek: all I know is it lets you have different desktops on virtual desktops, so you can have different wallpapers and widgets, instead of the same on all virtual desktops20:20
vivekiconmefisto: i am just trying to figure out what is so different from kde 4.320:21
iconmefistovivek: http://userbase.kde.org/Plasma#Activities_and_the_Zooming_User_Interface_.28ZUI.2920:22
iconmefistovivek: there's window tabbing. drag a window titlebar with the middle mouse button onto another window titlebar20:23
iconmefistovivek: or drag a window to the left or right edge of the screen, and it fills half the screen20:24
vivekiconmefisto: am dragging but nothing is happening.. in fact both the windows titlebars are one over the other..20:25
vivekiconmefisto: as far as the second point is concerned was it not there in 4.3 too ... it was!20:25
iconmefistovivek: ok maybe. I don't remember20:25
vivekiconmefisto: for this windowtabbing should i have to enable something20:26
vivekboth my windows are one over the other but no tabbing20:26
iconmefistovivek: no, just drag the titlebar onto another titlebar with middle mouse button20:26
vivekiconmefisto: yes this is cool20:27
vivekiconmefisto: this is really helpful.. is there anything else you could please tell me20:28
