Barridus | am i blind? how can you change your exit messages etc in Konversation? | 01:37 |
snarkfish | systemsettings continues to crash after updating to 10.4 when i goto desktop settings | 01:37 |
snarkfish | anyone else have this issue? | 01:37 |
Barridus | i do snarkfish | 01:39 |
snarkfish | how do you fix this issue? | 01:40 |
snarkfish | im assuming not to upgrade realeases, just do a fresh install | 01:40 |
Barridus | i think it's actually an update since launch of lucid, it wasn't always that way | 01:41 |
Barridus | i'm running the netbook edition of kubuntu though, i can get in to desktop settings by simply typing "desktop" into the search and launch bar | 01:41 |
Barridus | i don't know if Kubuntu Desktop has something similar, i suspect it does | 01:42 |
snarkfish | i type desktop in the search box on lancelot and it starts up dolphin | 01:42 |
Barridus | (by that i mean i could get into desktop via system settings until recently) | 01:42 |
Barridus | there has to be a backdoor in, i'm just at a disadvantage to help since i haven't used KDE "regular" in a while | 01:44 |
snarkfish | i think im just going to blow this thing away and do a fresh install.. ala windowish | 01:45 |
Barridus | i don't know if thatwill help | 01:47 |
Barridus | i'm running fresh, and mine also crashes going in that way | 01:47 |
Barridus | i'm sure there's a simple workaround for it, i just don't know it since i'm running netbook version and the interface is different | 01:49 |
snarkfish | thanx for your help barridus | 01:54 |

jmichaelx | UbuntuBoy: i would never again buy an ipod, but i have one... i started using it just before i switched to linux.... after i switched i kept adding music, and the music i had put there using windows is still there now | 07:34 |
jmichaelx | FedoraLover52: i don't think most linux users would use itunes... there definitely would not be enough who would use it that it would be worth the while for apple to go to the effort of porting it | 07:36 |
jmichaelx | i certainly don't want their DRM-infested junkware on my box | 07:36 |
jmichaelx | FedoraLover52: i don't know what ipod model you have, but would rockbox be an option? i use rockbox on mine, and now i can drag/drop music onto it, and can play .ogg files | 07:37 |
kuwanger | For some reason, iptables-save/iptables-restore seems to be being called automatically by something. Any idea what might be running them? | 07:56 |
hauni | hm. i guess my amarok problem has to do something with the RecordStream-Skript. This script writes webradio to disk and i thought it would also at the same time play the sound but it didn't. so i just recorded and played a different song. when i stopped recording and restarted amarok the playlist would continue and work normal again. | 07:57 |

CNiblett | Hello, I have a BenQ Joybook A53 that unfortunately has SiS graphics. Nevertheless I have managed to get things respectable following instructions from the Ubuntu forums that are used also at ubuntugeek: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-install-sis-771671-mirage-3-video-drivers-in-ubuntu-10-04-lucid.html | 14:12 |
CNiblett | Desktop for my uses now works fine, but I have another problem: My Kubuntu plymouth splash is screwed up | 14:13 |
shadeslayer | CNiblett: ah right | 14:13 |
CNiblett | I now get a rather nasty purple screen with nastly looking text | 14:14 |
shadeslayer | CNiblett: thats because the older driver used KMS,the new drivers dont | 14:14 |
CNiblett | shadeslayer: Is there a way around this? | 14:14 |
shadeslayer | CNiblett: idk what to do for a SiS card,but i have instructions for a nvidia card | 14:14 |
shadeslayer | CNiblett: do you know which driver is used by default for the SiS card? | 14:14 |
shadeslayer | CNiblett: http://news.softpedia.com/news/How-to-Fix-the-Big-and-Ugly-Plymouth-Logo-in-Ubuntu-10-04-140810.shtml | 14:15 |
CNiblett | shadeslayer: not sure but having a look at that article | 14:17 |
CNiblett | shadeslayer: I'd be happy with just disabling the splash altogether just so it doesn't look ugly | 14:18 |
shadeslayer | CNiblett: thats qute easy then :) | 14:25 |
shadeslayer | CNiblett: just remove the ' splash ' option from /etc/default/grub | 14:25 |
CNiblett | ok | 14:26 |
shadeslayer | CNiblett: btw youll have to edit that file with root priviliges... and then run sudo update-grub | 14:26 |
CNiblett | shadeslayer: thanks | 14:27 |
shadeslayer | GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="splash video=vesafb:mode_option=1440x900-24" | 14:27 |

gorgonizer | quick question, is it normal for Xorg to be using 649MB after 51.5 hours of uptime? Using KDE SC 4.5 Beta 1, so that may explain it... | 14:28 |
shadeslayer | gorgonizer: hm... try killing plasma and restarting it | 14:28 |
CNiblett | mine says this | 14:29 |
CNiblett | GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash" | 14:30 |
shadeslayer | CNiblett: yes,just remove splash there | 14:30 |
CNiblett | to just "quiet"? | 14:30 |
CNiblett | or just hash it? | 14:30 |
shadeslayer | CNiblett: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="splash" | 14:31 |
CNiblett | wont that still show a splash? | 14:31 |
gorgonizer | shadeslayer: after using 'kquitapp plasma-desktop && sleep 2 && plasma-desktop' still using 649.5 MB | 14:31 |
shadeslayer | oh sorry.. just quiet | 14:32 |
CNiblett | ah k | 14:32 |
shadeslayer | gorgonizer: no idea then :( | 14:32 |
shadeslayer | gorgonizer: which card btw? | 14:32 |
gorgonizer | shadeslayer: cheers for the idea though, I guess it is something that will be sorted as KDE SC 4.5 heads towardsfinal release.. Nvidia gfx | 14:33 |
shadeslayer | gorgonizer: default nv driver? | 14:33 |
shadeslayer | s/nv/nouveau | 14:33 |
gorgonizer | using nvidia closed source driver.. | 14:33 |
CNiblett | brb | 14:34 |
gorgonizer | not tried the nouveau driver as of yet.. | 14:34 |
Torch | gorgonizer: if something leaks X resources this might explain that. | 14:35 |
Torch | gorgonizer: i think there's not much you can do besides restart X | 14:35 |
gorgonizer | Torch: cheers, will restart when my system finally slows to a crawl, still responsive(ish) atm... | 14:37 |
CNiblett | Still no good... Still getting nasty artifacts and text all over the place | 14:45 |
shadeslayer | CNiblett: splash problems? | 14:50 |
CNiblett | yes | 14:50 |
shadeslayer | CNiblett: did you update grub? | 14:50 |
CNiblett | yes | 14:50 |
shadeslayer | CNiblett: can you check /boot/grub/grub.cfg if it does not have the splash option in boot line | 14:51 |
CNiblett | shadeslayer: boot line has quiet in it | 14:55 |
shadeslayer | CNiblett: hmm.. | 14:55 |
CNiblett | but I still get lines and nasty looking wonky text before I get to kdm login and when shutting down | 14:55 |
shadeslayer | CNiblett: no idea,that should have done it,but whats keeping it displaying pymouth,no idea | 14:56 |
shadeslayer | you cant even remove plymouth,since loads of stuff depends on it | 14:57 |
CNiblett | seems a lot of people with SiS chipsets are having this problem | 14:58 |
CNiblett | I'm actually doing this for someone else... I didn't even realise this thing had a SiS chipset until I installed kubuntu | 15:00 |

sushilcha | it is already installed chuckf | 16:59 |
sushilcha | :) | 16:59 |
chuckf | so what is the problem you are having? | 16:59 |
ping__luce | hi. which program could I use for extracting tracks from an audio cd into wav format? | 16:59 |
sushilcha | knetwork manager cant control wlan0 | 16:59 |
sushilcha | it cannot detect wifi signals | 16:59 |
sushilcha | chuckf: it's pretty strange.. | 17:00 |
chuckf | have you plugged into a wired network and done an 'sudo apt-get update' then 'sudo apt-get upgrade'? | 17:00 |
sushilcha | chuckf: i am not sure about that.. may be.. i did that | 17:01 |
sushilcha | chuckf: but wicd is working fine | 17:01 |

nikitis | back, and it did not work | 17:02 |
chuckf | sushilcha: do you know the type of wireless card you have? | 17:03 |
larsivi | did anyone experience loss of kwallet passwords with the latest kde upgrade? | 17:03 |
nikitis | The nvidia kernel module compiles just fine, dkms installs successfully, but when I go to do modprobe nvidia-current i get an error saying " No such Device" | 17:03 |
larsivi | kde 4.4.4 that is | 17:03 |
nikitis | DarthFrog: The kernel module compiles fine, and dkms installs fine, but when i do a nvidia-xconfig it works, but when I try to load up kdm it fails, and modprobe nvidia-current says No such device. | 17:04 |
sushilcha | and i am back | 17:06 |
sushilcha | chuckf: that trick worked | 17:06 |
sushilcha | fanti: that trick worked.. if u still need help | 17:06 |
sushilcha | :) | 17:06 |
sushilcha | fanti: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=226196 | 17:06 |
nikitis | BluesKaj: I did all that just now, but it crashes when restarting kdm, and when doing a modprobe nvidia-current i get "no such device" | 17:06 |
DarthFrog | nikitis: The module is nvidia, not nvidia-current. | 17:06 |
DarthFrog | nikitis: nvidia-current is the name of the package, not the module. | 17:07 |
nikitis | DarthFrog: so do it again but modprobe nvidia | 17:07 |
nikitis | DarthFrog: brb | 17:07 |
fanti | sushilcha: thanks | 17:11 |
nikitis | DarthFrog: Okay, did it again, but this time after it sayd it completed etc, and I did a modprobe, it says module nvidia not found | 17:12 |
DarthFrog | nikitis: What about X? | 17:13 |
nikitis | DarthFrog: X was closed | 17:13 |
DarthFrog | What happens when you type "startx"? | 17:14 |
nikitis | same thing, trys to start 3 times but fails | 17:14 |
nikitis | i have to remove xorg.conf file to successfully do startx or kdm | 17:14 |
DarthFrog | What is the error reported in /var/log/Xorg.0.log? | 17:14 |
BluesKaj | DarthFrog, stopping kdm stops X as well | 17:14 |
DarthFrog | Personally, I think nvidia-current is the wrong driver to use. I'd try the oldest one myself. | 17:15 |
DarthFrog | BluesKaj: "startx" should start X. :-) And if not, log what the problem is. | 17:15 |
BluesKaj | it's dificult to know which driver is appropriate , since it didn't load a driver at all | 17:16 |
nikitis | DarthFrog: Looks like its trying to load nouveau driver, but i blacklisted it | 17:16 |
DarthFrog | He's got an old card. Nviida drops support for old cards. | 17:16 |
nikitis | DarthFrog: i'm telling you i had 195 working with this card iin 9.04, I did an upgrade and now it won't install | 17:17 |
nikitis | DarthFrog: i'll load an old driver | 17:17 |
nikitis | i just want hardware accelleration | 17:17 |
BluesKaj | nikitis, you could try the nvidia-glx-173 or even the 96 , one of those might work | 17:18 |
nikitis | oh god, not 96 | 17:18 |
nikitis | it's not that old | 17:18 |
BluesKaj | nvidia-glx-173 , then | 17:18 |
nikitis | just sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-173 inside of tty with kdm stopped, and then nvidia-xconfig? | 17:18 |
DarthFrog | There's not going to be that much performance difference between any of them with a card that old. | 17:19 |
DarthFrog | nikitis: Remove nvidia-current first. | 17:19 |
nikitis | i did a apt-get purge nvidia* | 17:19 |
nikitis | brb | 17:20 |
BluesKaj | nikitis, do sudo apt-get remove nvidia-current | 17:20 |
BluesKaj | gawd | 17:20 |
BluesKaj | purgen nvidia probly won't do it | 17:20 |
BluesKaj | lunchtime ..BBL | 17:21 |
DarthFrog | No, it would be "sudo apt-get remove --purge ..." | 17:21 |

JuJuBee | I downloaded some login themes, where are they stored? I want to distribute them to all workstations in my room. | 17:45 |
DarthFrog | JuJuBee: Use the kpackagekit utilty to find out what files were installed. | 17:46 |
DarthFrog | JuJuBee: If it's the deb packages you want, look in /var/cache/apt/packages. | 17:46 |
JuJuBee | I did this via SystemSettings Login Manager and got new themes. Will kpackagekit know where they are? | 17:48 |
ragnorak | hi i need help amarock doesnt play files normally | 17:48 |
ragnorak | i hit play and nothing happens :| | 17:48 |
BluesKaj | JuJuBee, try http://kde-look.org/ , you can DL them to your home dir and give everyone a link to those themes right from the website | 17:52 |
ragnorak | !amarock | 17:53 |

ragnorak | anyone else have the same problem? | 17:55 |
BluesKaj | ragnorak, this might help if you are running an older kubuntu version , sudo aptitude install libxine1-ffmpeg | 17:57 |
ragnorak | oh thanks | 17:57 |
ragnorak | it might be coz i didn't update after installing :| | 17:58 |
BluesKaj | ragnorak, make sure you have kubuntu-restricted-extras too | 17:59 |
ragnorak | ok | 17:59 |

senobogos | i want to update my ubuntu 9.10 to the 10.04 | 18:03 |
senobogos | but my internet connexion is to low | 18:04 |
DarthFrog | senobogos: Get a free CD from shipit.kubuntu.com | 18:04 |
DarthFrog | !shipit | 18:04 |
ubottu | Shipit is a service that sends free Ubuntu and Kubuntu CDs. See http://shipit.ubuntu.com/ and http://shipit.kubuntu.org - Shipit will send !Lucid (10.04) CDs | 18:04 |
senobogos | one of my friend give me the Ubuntu 10.04 Edition Francophone(vcd) | 18:04 |
ragnorak | and don't upgrade make a clean install | 18:05 |
JuJuBee | BluesKaj: found them /usr/share/kde/apps/kdm/themes copied over to other machines ... thanks anyway | 18:05 |
ragnorak | upgrading was just messy | 18:05 |
BluesKaj | JuJuBee, ok, the website is agood source tho | 18:05 |
JuJuBee | Yes, but I wanted to replicate them on 20 machines without having to go to each and download them... | 18:06 |
BluesKaj | send links | 18:06 |
JuJuBee | easier to copy a folder of themes over | 18:07 |
bigbrovar | just to be sure, I have to download the source of dolphin and apply the patch and then compile it to get this ( http://kde-look.org/content/show.php/Dolphin+context+menu+menubar?content=125320 ) to work on kubuntu right ? | 18:07 |
BluesKaj | JuJuBee, no such folder here : /usr/share/kde/apps/kdm/themes | 18:09 |

Nailbar | Hey all! So I got this Mobile Broadband USB stick and it works using the Networkmanager in GNOME, but not with KNetworkManager in KDE. I get three "Object::disconnect: Unexpected null parameter" errors though I filled the exact same fields with the same info as in Networkmanager. Any ideas? | 18:55 |
shadeslayer | Nailbar: idk how to fix it,but you can get it to work under kde with nm-applet from gone | 18:58 |
shadeslayer | *gnome | 18:58 |
shadeslayer | Nailbar: just press alt+F2 and type konsole > sudo killall NetworkManager > alt+f2 > nm-applet | 18:58 |
Nailbar | Okay thanks I'll give it a shot | 18:59 |
shadeslayer | Nailbar: youll have to do all of those commands quickly.. NetworkManager starts after it has been closed | 19:00 |
FlameTai1 | Guys I need some help lol | 19:04 |

FlameTai1 | I tried that | 19:05 |
FlameTai1 | Not working... | 19:05 |

FlameTai1 | There we go | 19:05 |
FlameTai1 | lol | 19:05 |
FlameTai1 | Ty | 19:05 |
FlameTai1 | shadeslayer: Do you know where to adjust this shortcut? | 19:05 |
shadeslayer | FlameTai1: i think systemsettings > Desktop effects > All effects | 19:06 |
shadeslayer | FlameTai1: btw zoom out is meta- | 19:07 |
shadeslayer | FlameTai1: btw the effect is called Zoom... i have it disabled... not a really usefull effect :P | 19:08 |
FlameTai1 | shadeslayer: It's useful to me for going on www.iscribble.net but other wise it isn't lol | 19:09 |
shadeslayer | ah.. :) | 19:11 |
shadeslayer | FlameTai1: you know you could just use : ctrl+scroll up in your browser :P | 19:11 |
shadeslayer | it increases the text size :) | 19:11 |
FlameTai1 | shadeslayer: Shush xP lol | 19:11 |
shadeslayer | hehe :P | 19:12 |
drostie | is anyone familiar with a recent regression in the 9.10 versions of kubuntu where plasmoids just randomly disappear? | 19:30 |
drostie | I think it has to do with the fact that the "shut down" button stopped working in my kubuntu, so I've been using the "halt" command. So it might be a completely new and unreported bug. | 19:31 |
clarnist | hello | 19:42 |

etho | hello; i have an ecryptfs directory in my home directory, and a link of ~/.kde to ~/encrypted/.kde | 19:52 |
=== echidnaman is now known as JontheEchidna | ||
etho | now my symbolic link got removed and replaced by an new .kde directory | 19:52 |
etho | do you know why? is this dangerous in your opinion (the link), because of race conditions when logging in? (i don't really know if the ecryptfs is reliably mounted before the .kde directory is accessed) | 19:53 |
etho | do you have another idea, how to keep my data "private" (mostly the email stuff, and thumbnails of my image collection) (and no, to your surprise i am not talking about pr0n ;) | 19:54 |
well_laid_lawn | you could chmod go-rw /home/you | 19:56 |
etho | i am more afraid, that somebody could steal the notebook and access the data (medical stuff...) | 19:57 |
etho | and in that case i really need to encrypt the data | 19:57 |
etho | [this is not my computer, i have no problems in restoring the link, and even make enough backups so that a race condition wouldn't be a problem, but the person i am configuring the notebook for, wouldn't be able to] | 19:59 |
drostie | etho: tmpfs on /tmp, symlink ~/.thumbnails or whatever it is onto a folder in /tmp, add encrypted swap for when the filesystem fills? :D | 19:59 |
drostie | it's not persistent, but I'm not sure you need persistence. | 20:00 |
etho | drostie: but that would only be necessary, if the .kde link into the encrypted filesystem really is a problem | 20:00 |
drostie | correct. probably it just depends on when the drive is unlocked. | 20:01 |
etho | assuming that the encrypted filesystem definitely is mounted before kde accesses it. Why was my .kde symbolic link replaced? | 20:01 |
etho | what program could that be? | 20:01 |
drostie | etho: I've no real idea, but suppose we restore the symlink in /etc/rc.local. Problem solved? | 20:02 |
etho | it's probably even good enough, to do that in some user owned login file. I will try to find out, when and how the ecryptfs is mounted | 20:04 |
etho | ecryptfs is mounted using a pam module | 20:20 |
etho | the pam module forks and one thread: execl("/sbin/mount.ecryptfs_private", "mount.ecryptfs_private", NULL); | 20:21 |
etho | whereas the other waits: waitpid(pid, &rc, 0); | 20:21 |
pingveno | Does Kubuntu in a VM take a significant performance hit? | 20:21 |
etho | which IMO means, that there is no way, that the ecryptfs isn't mounted completely before KDE uses it | 20:21 |
etho | pingveno: i use virtualbox everyday at work | 20:22 |
etho | i noticed a difference until i gave my Virtualbox high priority (in windows) | 20:23 |
etho | i don't use any graphic effects... though | 20:23 |
pingveno | This will be on Mac. I'm not sure if there's any difference. | 20:23 |
pingveno | Ah | 20:23 |
pingveno | I will definitely be wanting the pretty graphics :P | 20:23 |
