Riddellwaa12:07
* apachelogger blames upstart12:12
apacheloggerScottK: kdm.log and X.log would be interesting I suppose12:13
apacheloggerbut I dont think that kdm is supposed to restart itself after logout, which leaves us with the options that X crashes and kdm fails to restart it (maybe gets dragged down along with X?) or some patch of ours breaks it12:14
apacheloggerbecause IIRC logout is a rather simple process12:14
apacheloggerksmserver just kicks all apps into nirvana and returns to kdm which is then supposed to redraw it's ui12:15

TroubleDoes anyone know why, now I've upgraded my Karmic notebook to Lucid I no longer have any window decoration? I'm sure I had this problem before, but can't remember how I fixed it. I've already started with a new .kde directory.16:12

TroubleYea there is... Alt + Fn + S ;-) It's a Dell Inspiron Mini 916:16

TroubleI'm sure I had this before - perhaps when I installed Jaunty (lol I should have said Jaunty rather than Karmic!), or perhaps when I upgraded KDE to 4.416:18
RiddellTrouble: that's deliberate, netbook is intended not to have window borders16:18

TroubleRiddell: If I wanted the window decoration back in netbook, how could I make it so? I quite miss the minimise and close buttons :)16:42
apacheloggerRiddell: my theory is that at some point your desktop crashed or mysqld-akonadi did just not terminate properly, leaving the log file locks in place, now at eveyr startup mysqld goes mad about that, but eventually starts16:42
apacheloggerhence akonadi does funny things because of mysql's failure16:43

nixternalwhen we do the release, lets make sure we add "Docs aren't translated yet...will be soon"17:59
dpmRiddell, nixternal, docs are really hard to translate, so not even in GNOME or KDE you get them to the level that apps are translated. It took our team about 2 years to finish the Catalan ubuntu-docs translation, but we (and our users) still appreciated our partiartially translated documentation. Looking at https://translations.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/lucid/+source/kubuntu-docs/+pots/kubuntu-docs-about-desktop, that particular template for example ha18:02
dpms been translated to 20 odd langs, so I think even though other templates might not be that well translated, that enough warrants an export and upload18:02
