[03:30] Test [03:31] Could you help me to install a theme downloaded from kde-look.org? It's a tar.gz archive which contains a .qss and .bespin files. I'm running KDE 4.4.4. [03:33] New at this myself. Wish I could help. :/ [03:33] Swiftpaw: :) [03:34] I couldn't find an option to install theme. [03:35] To be honest this is the first time I've ever used IRC althought I've chatted in games a lot. I downloaded a theme from the Ubuntu website and it worked fine even though it didn't specifically list Kubuntu compatible. [03:36] Did it download the theme into a folder or do you not know where it is? [03:36] Using Konquerer or Firefox? [03:39] I'm using Firefox [03:40] and downloaded as usual, to a directory [03:40] I mean, to the default ~/Downloads dir [03:43] Oh, the only themes I've installed were using the Add-ons selection on the tools tab. They have a lot of nice ones there but if you have a custom one I have no clue. Sorry. :( [03:44] It's alrigt, Thank you :) [03:53] Swiftpaw: may be because I have not installed an application to install KDE themes? [03:54] What is the main difference between Kubuntu and Ubuntu? Have to say the reason I stuck with Kubuntu was because it worked better with Youtube and Hulu. [03:57] I didn't download anything to install my themes though, although I did download quite a few packages and it may have been in one of them. How do you send a private message? [03:57] in irc ? [03:57] Yes [03:58] I guess I mean how did you make your message to me yellow? :/ [03:58] er orange. [03:58] Mention your name, [03:58] like this : Swiftpaw [03:58] Ah, kk. Thanks. [03:59] Do you have the basic Kubuntu install or have you downloaded other packages? [04:00] Swiftpaw: I did a custom install, by specifiying only the required packages [04:00] I running KDE in Ubuntu machine [04:00] 10.04, to be precise [04:02] ershad Oh, I downloaded the recommended packages but I installed some more for java, flash, and video too. But that doesn't sound like it would require anything like that. :/ === rackIT_AFK is now known as rackIT [04:02] afk [04:02] Swiftpaw: yeah,. [04:19] ershad Found this on firefox help. Not sure how it will come out but you may want to try. You are asked to download the add-on, rather than installing it [04:19] Some websites serve add-ons as downloads, requiring you to download the file to your computer, before installing it. [04:19] * These files are usually .xpi or .jar files. [04:19] 1. Download the file to your local computer. [04:19] 2. In the menu at the top of the Firefox window, click the Tools menu, and select Add-ons. The Add-ons window is displayed. [04:19] Swiftpaw: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [04:19] 3. To add the downloaded add-on to the list of available add-ons, drag and drop the file into the Add-ons window. The Add-on is added to the list. [04:20] Oops. Sorry, that was suppose to be to one person but my paste messed it up. :/ [04:20] Swiftpaw: I would like to install KDE theme, not firefox theme [04:21] ershad Oh, didn't know KDE had themes. lol I'll have to look that up too. :) [04:22] Swiftpaw: :) [04:23] ershad Can I assume the theme goes beyond just the wallpaper? How much more does it change? [04:24] Who's here? [04:24] I have a BURNING question. Anyone want to answer? [04:24] Nope. [04:24] Swiftpaw: Well, Theme change may result in complete change in colours, buttons and widgets [04:25] dang.

[15:02] amichairo: nothing [15:02] basajaun: btw 1.6.0_20 is the latest... strange that you have an older one - are you sure you're updated? (in 10.04 you need the partner repository enabled for java updates) [15:03] ok basajaun , have it your way [15:03] amichairo: if I check on the java web site it says I have 1.6.0_20 installed === shadeslayer is now known as shadeslayer_ [15:04] basajaun: maybe the plugin and command line are looking in different places... how about 'sudo update-alternatives -- config java' === amichairo is now known as amichair [15:04] pretty please, have a look at this bug, thanks! https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/591532 [15:04] Montblanc: please go to #ubuntu-bugs [15:05] moin [15:05] hmm... why did my nick change just then? [15:06] is it me or im the only one with such a bug ? -> http://i49.tinypic.com/16byfjb.png [15:06] basajaun, check your sources.list and make sure all the deb urls aren't commented with a# [15:06] then sudo aptitude update [15:07] to get the normal bar back i have to enable and disable the desktop effects after each start [15:07] ok BluesKaj [15:07] (i never used those) [15:09] basajaun, the cdrom one should be commented , otherwise apt won't look at any other repos [15:10] BluesKaj: maybe it would be safer to use software-properties-kde than modify sources directly? [15:11] lumm try manually setting your monitor resolution it helped for me [15:11] amichair, time to get the feet wet , the package manager doesn't help users learn how to edit sources IMO [15:12] oh and what is that win xp icon on your taskbar? [15:13] BluesKaj: of course not, but some users may prefer being just users and getting their system to work - the advanced ones will know to ask for more :-) === jtechidna is now known as JontheEchidna [15:13] BluesKaj: just a thought :-) [15:16] amichair, yeah , I get your point , but if they don't want to get into the detsils , they usually say so in my experience. [15:16] err details [15:17] BluesKaj: ah, ok [15:17] amichair: You there ? [15:18] amichair: I have one doubt and I haven't found anyone answering for that : [15:18] amichair: anyone who can help me in increasing the PLASMA DIGITAL CLOCK Size in the PANEL of kubuntu ??? [15:19] srikant: I don't see a font size setting there... maybe if you remove the date part the time gets bigger? [15:19] srikant: at least how it looks on my screen, there's not much room to make it bigger (unless the whole panel is made bigger?) [15:19] amichair: Then how does Fedora & openSUSE are able to provide default digital clock with large size in the panel [15:20] amichair: provided fixed default size of the panel. [15:22] srikant: I don't know what other distros do. If you compare the settings between them, I'm sure you'll be able to find what's configured differently (font, bold, maybe a different clock widget?) [15:23] amichair: where exactly I can find control settings of plasma widgets in kubuntu ? [15:23] well I have changed and opted for java jre open jdk was also installed [15:23] srikant: right click on the clock, and select 'Digital Clock Settings' [15:24] basajaun, have you tried to install kubuntu-restricted-extras ? [15:24] amichair: :-) I have modified the settings there several times and never succeeded !! [15:25] * BluesKaj takes a break b [15:26] bbl [15:26] Hello all [15:27] i need some help please ? [15:27] too late for BluesKaj but restricted extras are up and running [15:27] basajaun: did you run update-alternatives? and pick the latest sun jdk/jre? [15:27] are theere any one who can help me ? [15:27] !ask | ahmed_ [15:27] ahmed_: 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. :-) [15:28] and If I click on the java sh script file from console it says can access jar file [15:28] ok thanks [15:28] i have a problem with my monitor [15:28] i have a Plug and Play Monitor [15:28] basajaun: if you run it in a terminal, is there any output? [15:29] and Ubuntu 10.04 can't detect it [15:29] and i can't get the correct Modeline for it [15:29] what i do please ? [15:29] ahmed_: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution ? === alec is now known as Guest30916 [15:31] amichair: and If I click on the java sh script file from console it says can access jar file [15:31] basajaun: what do you mean click from console? click would be in GUI, and running the script manually via keyboard would be in console [15:36] ok amichair I press ctrl +f2 and type jshisen .sh [15:36] basajaun: is there any output? [15:37] command not found [15:37] file is executable [15:37] basajaun: try ./jshisen.sh (you can use tab for autocompletion) [15:38] before that, try 'cat jshisen.sh'. does it do anything other than 'java -jar '? [15:42] No such file or directory [15:43] basajaun: if you type 'ls' do you see the files? is the current directory the one with the files in it? [15:46] basajaun@etchea:~/Documents/jShisen-1$ lsinstall.cmd jShisen.jar jShisen.sh jsos2.ico jswin.ico [15:47] basajaun: ./jShisen.sh linux is case sensitive [15:47] basajaun: maybe you mixed the case in the previous commands (it is case-sensitive) [15:51] no I do not understand anything been using this little program for years on previous version of Kubuntu [15:52] basajaun: try running 'java -jar jShisen.jar' (copy exactly with the same case). What is the output? === owner is now known as boucq [15:54] amichair: Unable to access jarfile jShisen.jar [15:56] if I run terminal from folder with the command you just gave me it starts [15:57] amichair: if I run terminal from folder with the command you just gave me it starts === jtechidna is now known as JontheEchidna [15:57] basajaun: so it's working OK when you start it this way? [15:58] yes bit akward but works so I guess [15:58] basajaun: how did you run it in the past? not from a command line? [15:59] no before it would start from script but so may things have changed this is an old application 2004 so... [16:02] basajaun: from the same terminal that just worked, if you run './jShisen.sh', does it work? [16:03] yes if I open terminal from folder [16:04] amichair, what about copying the exe file to /usr/bin/ ? [16:04] BluesKaj: exe file? [16:05] oops thinking in windows again , the runfile [16:05] I think when he clicks the script in gui it doesn' use the current directory, and when he opens a terminal it does [16:06] yes amichair sounds right other wiase it would indeed work [16:07] or, java is not on the path when running from gui (but that doesn't make immediate sense to me) [16:07] basajaun: are you running it by clicking in Dolphin? or something else? [16:07] dolphin [16:09] basajaun: small chance - maybe it needs a restart to see the updated paths? [16:10] small chances are to be tried Iĺl do that and thank you for your help amichair , much appreciated! [16:11] basajaun: my pleasure. I'm curious as to why it's not working... but at least we narrowed down when it does :-) [16:12] ;) well I restart and let you know amichair [16:13] please who can tell me where i found a Driver for a S3 graphic unichrome pro for Mother Board P4M800 [16:13] i have try the openchrome [16:13] but not working [16:15] !openchrome === ping__luce is now known as faLUCE [16:17] !pm | ahmed_ [16:17] ahmed_: Please ask your questions in the channel so that other people can help you, benefit from your questions and answers, and ensure that you're not getting bad advice. Please note that some people find it rude to be sent a PM without being asked for permission to do so first. [16:18] ok sorry [16:18] but i ask and any one help me [16:20] ahmed_: that means nobody here at the moment knows the answer. Try again a little later, and hopefully someone will join that will be able to help. [16:20] amichair : ok thanks [16:23] amichair: no luck lol [16:24] but at least I can use the app from the folder [16:24] but its intriguing all the same [16:40] ** testers needed for KDE SC 4.5 beta 2 on 10.04 [16:41] bye all [16:42] basajaun: I think it might be a Dolphin bug/wishlist, as I find a similar one for konqueror (executing files not in the current directory) [16:42] oh, ahem. [16:53] I need help creating a touch keyboard and periodic table program for kubunu [16:53] Anyone who can help, please join #Multitouch. [16:58] Hello? is anyone here?? [17:10] Looks like there are some updates in the kubuntu beta backports ppa [17:11] mfraz74: I think Riddell was just looking for vulenteers to check the KDE 4.5 SC backport (I hope I'm not mixing up ppas) [17:12] amichair: they're 4.4.85 which I suppose is 4.5 beta [17:12] mfraz74: that's KDE SC 4.5 beta 2, it hasn't been announced yet because we're waiting on some testers [17:12] if you want to test install it and let us know how it works in #kubuntu-devel [17:12] riddell: is digikam 1.3 going to be in that? [17:13] mfraz74: not currently [17:13] ok === yofel_ is now known as yofel [17:19] good afternoon [17:19] is there a way I can inquire the system about WHAT was changed when apt tells me there are new updates? [17:19] I mean I see there's an xserver update... sounds good but what was changed? [17:19] tzanger: there's apt-listchanges [17:20] amichair: verynice. thank you [17:20] tzanger: aptitude changelog package [17:20] ahh it's not installed by default, that's why [17:20] nothing in kpackagekit? [17:29] llutz, iasked earlier about removiing makeactive in grub were you referring to legacy grub ? [17:35] oh well, stuff to do ...bbl [17:40] why does apt-listchanges install exim? === miguel is now known as goldem [17:47] hi. in kde i can select keyboard klayouts and switch them by clicking on the flag. is there a layout for IPA signs, too? [17:50] I just scanned a receipt in gimp. autocrop does not work. there is a very obvious huge border around the image and it never autocrops. the colored background stays put. whats wrong? [17:59] what video editor could y'all recommend? [18:00] I can almost swear gimp is just broken. no joke, autocrop doesn't work when I am 99% convinced it should and the scissors are in no way obvious. I go around the entire selection, get back to the first dot and nothing happens. I can definitely select something but anything further deals with the entire image. really? [18:03] hi, what is a LIGHTWEIGHT application to hear streaming music? [18:03] not amarok please [18:04] cli or gui? [18:04] well, gui is ok [18:04] as long as it small :) [18:04] my god amarok takes 700MB of RAM! [18:06] whats it doing? storing the entire CD data image in memory? [18:06] Can't recall if mpd does streaming, but I think it does. [18:06] alesan: are you sure it's actually using 700MB of RAM [18:08] tsimpson, I just restarted amarok right now; htop tells me VIRT 1263M RES 103M but this parameter gets worse after several hours [18:08] alesan: which, VIRT or RES? [18:08] you can generally ignore the value of VIRT [18:09] RES, but let me run it for a while [18:09] I just recently upgraded to 10.04 [18:09] anyway [18:09] if it is using that much memory, you should probably report a bug [18:09] amarok is just bloated [18:09] from my personal point of view [18:10] if you want something a little smaller than amarok, try vlc [18:10] I liked the previous version of amarok, now I was so overwelmed by all these unnecessary functions that I wrote my own media player [18:10] but my app does not support streaming === bulldog is now known as bulldog98 [18:11] kmplayer is another alternative [18:11] oh ok [18:15] how much RES should the X process be taking? [18:18] that depends on what/how much X is doing [18:18] Isn't there an issue with Xorg and nvidia drivers currently? [18:19] tsimpson: such as? [18:20] what windows are open, how many images, what parts are visible, how often an application repaints, lots of things [18:20] I'm using nvidia drivers. currently X RES is 220M, which seems a bit on the high side [18:20] mine is using ~100MB [18:20] 540 here. Since 10.04 Xorg has been hungry. [18:21] I've got almost 4 days uptime. will keep monitoring to see if it grows with time, I suppose [18:22] My xorg was getting nuts. I tried the nouvea driver for a while and didn't have a problem. reinstalled the nvidia and turned off desktop effects and it has been pretty tame. [18:22] I think I read about xorg and the newest nvidia drivers not playing well together. I have 3 days of uptime and moderate desktop effects. [18:24] well, at least it's a known issue, and someone will fix it eventually. Most memory leaks the devs don't believe exist (until you find them urself, if you have the time) [18:25] there's not much anyone can do about the nvidia driver, except the nvidia people [18:26] tsimpson: true. But I think they're ok as such, no? [18:26] tsimpson: yep. [18:26] I don't use an nvidia card, I'm quite happy with my intel chip :) [18:28] tsimpson: A friend of mine is sending me another graphics card, but alas it too is nividia. However, it will be better than my onboard one. [18:29] I have an onboard NVidia 9300. It was my compromise of not spending extra on a graphics card, and getting pretty good performance and support. I've been pretty happy with it. [18:30] amichair: I don't recall the model number of mine,but I too looked at as cost cutting measure. I have actually been surprised by how decent it is. [18:31] it's actually an Intel GPU (GMA500) that stands between kubuntu and my netbook :-( [18:39] Just noticed that my kubuntu installation automatically installs security updates even though I have set that it should only notify about updates :S [18:40] Has anyone else this behavior in kubuntu? [18:41] how do you configure so that everything is automatic? [18:41] I do not understand why it bother asking the user what to do [18:42] alesan you can only set the security updates to automatically [18:42] why everything should be automatic :D [18:43] because my mom does not know what is an update [18:43] and I am 6000miles away [18:43] O_o seriously [18:43] why are you surprised, your mother knows how to deal with updates? [18:44] ArGGu^^: I just noticed this issue today as well [18:44] amichair ok just noticed there is also bug report in launchpad [18:45] if u got a link, I'll add my vote. Or fix it, when I have the time :-) [18:46] amichair the bug report link? [18:47] ArGGu^^: ya [18:47] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/packagekit/+bug/586497 [18:47] ArGGu^^: Thanks. [18:48] Is there a way to reorder the activities list? [18:50] I did an aptitude update this morning, and I noticed a have a lot of updates pending (Current status: 173 updates [+18], 352 new [+3].) Most of which are being kept back, but I imagine they are waiting on a dependency. I was wondering if anyone knew of anything being released today. I don't see anything on the kubuntu.org site. [18:51] bbeck: 4.5b2 was released today. [18:51] bbeck: if you use the lucid proposed backports ppa, KDE SC 4.5 Beta was uploaded today [18:52] awesome! thank you. [18:53] bbeck: if you're gonna give it a shot, Riddell will be happy to hear your feedback [19:00] raindog: please note that it's not released to the general public, only for testing at the moment [19:01] tsimpson: Yes, I am aware of that fact. [19:02] btw is there ever change that kubuntu would change it release cycle so that when new kde is released there would be new kubuntu? [19:02] I typically test out betas. [19:02] it would be nice :) [19:04] but would it make things bit harder because kubuntu and ubuntu are using same repositories? [19:09] hi, fresh 10.4, sending thunderbird mail with attachment freezes the whole machine in mid progress, not even magic sysrq works. no problems without attachment, no problem receiving mail+attachment, no problem displaying/saving those. reinstalled TB, started off fresh profile, to no avail. any ideas [19:09] hi. how can i use IPA keyboard layout? === shadesla1er is now known as shadeslayer === pavel_ is now known as estres [19:28] народ [19:28] нужна помощь [19:28] patch: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [19:28] !ru | patch [19:28] patch: Пожалуйста посетите #ubuntu-ru для получения помощи на русском языке / Pozhalujsta posetite #ubuntu-ru dlya polucheniya pomoshi na russkom yazyke [19:31] is there a setting in akregator that limits the number of articles to fetch? if so, where is it? I can't find it. === Philip6 is now known as Philip5 [19:56] Question: In 4.5b2 is right clicking functionality removed intentionally from app icons in the new notification area? [19:56] For instance, starting, pausing Amarok? [19:56] raindog: hmm... that is a known issue,idk if its intentional or not [19:56] raindog: maybe #kde can enlighten you? [19:57] shadeslayer: Thanks. Yeah, good idea. It's not a big deal for me, just am curious. [19:58] raindog: I know they're working on the systray right now, so it might be borked. [20:00] raindog: btw its working for some people :) [20:01] shadeslayer: Hmm. Strange. [20:02] raindog: I am having issues with the SystemTray as well.. [20:03] since there are quite a few 4.5 beta users, might I ask what's new besides notification area, info widget, and kmail? [20:04] (oh, and tiling) [20:04] epicbeardman: bug fixes :P [20:04] epicbeardman: checkout the kde 4.5 beta 2 announcement page [20:05] ok. I was just wondering if they snuck in some features without mentioning ;) [20:05] now why would they do that? :P [20:06] I would do it as a treat. Thousands of users would go `oh wow, they didn't mention that, cool!' [20:06] of course, probably just as many would be mad. [20:06] epicbeardman: kmail (the whole of KDEPIM in fact) is still at KDE 4.4 due to KDEPIM being ported to use Akonadi [20:07] gorgonizer: do you know if the port will likely be done by 4.5 [20:07] ? [20:08] epicbeardman: from what I understood, it was aniticipated to be released 1 month after the first Beta of KDE SC 4.5, so I would certainly hope so.. [20:09] k. I had some issues with kontact and akonadi, but I understood it was still pretty early code. [20:12] any kstars users here with a telescope? [20:35] my daddy's laptop had 8.xx, I've installed from scratch kubuntu 10.04, but now wireless connection keeps dropping! Any tip? [20:35] <^Lightning^> markit: what laptop? [20:36] markit: try the plasma-widget-networkmanager and/or WICD if its a nm problem,if its a driver problem try the wireless backport modules in the repo [20:37] shadeslayer: maybe better the backport modules first... what is the package named? [20:37] markit: linux-backports-modules-wireless- [20:38] you need to put your kernel version after that [20:38] shadeslayer: thaks. A known regression? [20:38] and isn't enough having ppa repo ? [20:39] markit: hmm.. dont know :) [20:40] before we make suggestions, shouldn't we ask what model wireless card it is? [20:40] <^Lightning^> Exaactly [20:40] <^Lightning^> I bet it's Atheros [20:41] ath would probably work, though, right? [20:41] it's most likely either ath or bcm [20:41] but I thought ath5k and ath9k covered 99% [20:41] <^Lightning^> I have ath. I'm using Karmic. It doesn' [20:41] <^Lightning^> t work [20:41] markit: have you tried running the restricted drivers installer? [20:42] ^Lightning^: interesante. [20:42] <^Lightning^> I did mess around when I was Jaunty. Than I upgraded from the package manager today. [20:42] <^Lightning^> Gonna go to Lucid tomorrow [20:42] epicbeardman: I don't know about them... but I think are supported by Free software, otherwise should not work at all [20:42] <^Lightning^> markit: WHAT LAPTOP DOES YOUR FATHER HAVE? [20:43] !caps [20:43] PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too. [20:43] more specifically, what is the make & model of the wireless card? [20:43] ^Lightning^: sorry, I'm switching head between this pc and that laptop, trying your suggestions, so I missed some piece of conversation [20:43] markit: if you can tell us the model no. of the card we can help better :) [20:43] the laptop is an acer travelmate 7720g [20:44] 04:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 4965 AG or AGN [Kedron] Network Connection (rev 61) [20:44] (lspci output) [20:44] Kernel driver in use: iwlagn [20:45] <^Lightning^> Intel PRO/Wireless 3945ABG (dual-band tri-mode 802.11a/b/g) [20:46] Anyone having problems starting amarok after updating to SC 4.4.4? [20:46] ok, so I'll try the plasma widget network manager first? (seems not installed by default) [20:46] or do you think is a driver issue? [20:47] markit: try the plasma widget first ;) [20:48] shadeslayer: can't find locally nor from internet [20:48] (looking for "network" keyword) [20:49] markit: cant you connect the latop via ethernet? [20:50] would be easier that way... [20:50] shadeslayer: sure, I'm ssh there [20:50] !info plasma-widget-networkmanager [20:50] Package plasma-widget-networkmanager does not exist in lucid [20:50] !info plasma-widget-networkmanagement | markit [20:50] markit: plasma-widget-networkmanagement (source: plasma-widget-networkmanagement): Network Management widget for KDE4 Plasma.

[20:51] markit: thats the package name :) [20:52] shadeslayer: funny, aptitude search network | grep -i manager does not show it [20:52] I'll investigate later [20:52] ah, manaGEMENT [20:52] lol [20:52] I'm tired and probably blind ;) [20:53] markit: :P [20:56] * markit crosses his fingers [20:56] :( [20:56] dropped after some seconds [20:56] markit: again? [20:57] markit: which kernel? [20:57] i have the same card.. :) [20:58] <^Lightning^> Anyone here can help me with an AR242x?' [20:58] argh, I've put the network plasma in teh taskbar, but showed a grayed rectangle [20:58] I did "remove panel" but removed the whole taskbar [20:58] and of course you can't restore easely [20:58] * markit hunts for his note about how to restore it [20:58] markit: oh no no,you need to add the network manager needs to be added in systray [20:59] markit: right click on desktop > add panel [20:59] 2.6.32-22-generic [20:59] add panel adds an empty one [20:59] markit: ok,try installing the backports modules,that should help [20:59] markit: yeah,that it does [21:00] fill it up with stuff you like :P [21:00] hahaha, I try to reset to default instead [21:00] maybe I'm lazy, maybe I'm a little irritade by this aproach [21:00] irritated [21:01] I'm always in fear of removing it when I work with plasmoids, that's not good [21:01] <^Lightning^> Just lock widgets when yo're done [21:01] markit: ah to reset it to default just remove your .kde folder in ~ [21:03] rm ~/kde/share/config/plasma-desktop-appletsrc [21:04] (after a service kdm stop [21:04] ) [21:04] shadeslayer: so you have the same kernel + wireless chipset I have, you don't have any drop, and you are using restricted modules? [21:05] markit: actually im using a newer kernel [21:05] btw, probably I've to add an additiona backport repo, can't find any useful restricted package [21:06] shadeslayer: oh, me too please! how can I do? [21:06] * markit wants 2.6.34 [21:06] markit: its the .35 kernel and i did experience some drops on the 34 kernels [21:06] shadeslayer: so having it working with restricted modules is only a hope [21:07] I thought intel wireless chipset were the best supported by Free software [21:07] markit: well sort of,you could always remove the modules [21:07] markit: yes,but the backports modules are simply newer git snapshots of the drivers [21:08] linux-backports-modules-wireless-2.6.32-22-generic OR linux-backports-modules-wireless-lucid-generic ? [21:08] or both? [21:08] markit: the second one [21:09] its a generic package for the modules [21:09] ok, better reboot then (old M$Craops habbits, lol) [21:10] markit: newer kernels can be found at http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/ [21:10] markit: /!\ USE WITH CAUTION /!\ [21:10] shadeslayer: well "I'll use IF DESPERATE" lol [21:10] markit: hehe :) [21:10] is it possible to put 2 panels at the top of the screen? [21:11] can't tell my daddy that each upgrade we face lots of problems [21:11] i mean second one under firs one [21:11] soee_: yeah,but you wont be access one of them [21:11] to be sincere, with foss is always a risk... my life is full of unespected regressions that ruin all your work [21:11] "/ === shadeslayer is now known as shadeslayer_ [21:12] markit: gtg ciao === gp is now known as gp[8] [21:13] can't put that damn plasmoiod on it's place [21:13] shadeslayer_: oh, thanks A LOT [21:13] np :) [21:13] do't know if will work, but thanks a lot anyway [21:13] :) [21:13] markit: what you can also do is rmmod the module and modprobe it again [21:13] just to check if it does the trick :P [21:14] markit: sudo rmmod iwlagn;sudo modprobe iwlagn [21:15] shadeslayer_: thaks, but I've already rebooted, put the damn plasmoid on teh desktop and I'm testing it [21:15] urgh :( [21:15] disconnected again [21:16] now the pasmoid shows nothing (no wierd nor wireless) [21:16] form bad to worse :( [21:21] Within a couple of days, on two different systems, the plasma networkmanagement widget has failed on me [21:21] and it doesn't seem to start on a restart [21:23] so far, I've used it only for wired connections [21:24] mmm connection seems to drop exactly after 30 seconds... [21:24] I don't know where to start, really [21:25] KjetilK: I've removed and reput on teh desktop, seems to list the connections again [21:25] * markit tries 2.6.35rc1 kernel, brrrr [21:26] hmmm [21:27] one weird thing, I seem to have installed both plasma-widget-network-manager and plasma-widget-networkmanagement [21:28] shadeslayer_: kernel 2.3.35rc1 seems did the trick, can't thank you enough (and all the others that have helped at the beginning) [21:29] markit: awesome :D [21:29] shadeslayer_: well, scaring! hope new kernel does not wipe out the hard disk ;P [21:29] markit: can you file a bug against the 22 kernel? [21:30] markit: nah its pretty stable.... [21:30] shadeslayer_: I'll go to holiday for some days tomorrow, have no time right now [21:30] markit: sure no problem [21:30] * KjetilK removes the former [21:30] wondering also if is a kubuntu-introduced bug or upstream [21:31] in any case, I've learned also that if you want a plasmoid in the systray, you have to right click on systray and select "add" from there [21:31] to be sincere, is not intuitive at all [21:31] (the "modal" aproach is a bad design one) [21:32] Greets, everyone... Anyone using the KDE 4.5 Beta 2 packages yet? I'm wondering about stability, etc. :) [21:34] contrast: yes you can upgrade but all the usual beta warnings apply [21:34] well, I can't put there :( maybe i'm too tired [21:34] s.a [21:35] contrast: belive me, you are in trouble enough just running the "stable" things, don't hurt yourself! :) [21:36] markit: point taken, thanks. :) [21:36] can I start the network management widget from command line somehow? [21:36] KjetilK: knetworkmanager [21:37] contrast, isn't that a different program? [21:37] markit: Speaking strictly in terms of stability, how would you rate 4.5 so far, compared to 4.4? [21:37] If I "aptitude upgrade" and I get a message about conflicts (e.g. conflict: 1) how can I go about finding out what that conflict is? [21:37] KjetilK: Erm, well it's a system tray applet, which is what I assumed you meant by "widget." :) [21:38] contrast, I'm not quite sure myself, but I was under the impression that the plasma widget is different from the knetworkmanager app... [21:38] contrast: I've no idea, I'm fighting since some hours with troubles with 2.6.2 kernel and 4.4.4 kde, so... [21:38] markit: Ohh ok. Well, good luck with that. :) [21:40] KjetilK: Well, there *is* a Network Manager Plasma widget in the plasma-widget-networkmanagement package, but it's not recommended for use as it's supposedly pretty unstable. [21:41] contrast, oh, ok [21:41] KjetilK: knetworkmanager, the system tray applet which is installed by default, is probably what you want. ;) [21:41] then, that's probably what's bitten me [21:41] KjetilK: Ohh, you installed the widget? [21:42] hmmm, I didn't make a conscious decision about doing that on either system, but yeah... [21:42] hehe... Just selected all the packages that started with "plasma-widget-" and clicked Install, eh? I've done that a time or two myself. [21:43] amichair: ? [21:44] KjetilK: You'll want to be sure to remove the widget from your desktop *before* uninstalling the package. Sometimes Plasma goes nuts if it can't find a widget that's supposed to be on the desktop. [21:45] contrast, I always use aptitude, so no :-) [21:45] and it isn't running [21:45] hmpf [21:45] just to let you know concerning the intriguing java application- creating a short cut on desktop to jShisen opens it straight away renewed thanks for earlier on bye [21:46] * KjetilK logs out and gets the box connected with /etc/network/interfaces [21:58] OK, now I've got knetworkmanager in, but it just sits there and says "Unmanaged" [21:58] what can I do about that? [21:59] <^Lightning^> I got a problem. Just prgraded to Karmic. network manager won't let me enable wireless [21:59] * KjetilK found http://wiki.debian.org/NetworkManager [22:01] <^Lightning^> No [22:01] <^Lightning^> as in I can't see any networks at all [22:01] <^Lightning^> AR242x [22:02] ^Lightning^: First, open /etc/network/interfaces (Alt+F2 -> kdesudo kate /etc/network/interfaces), then place a # at the beginning of every line under "iface lo inet loopback". Save and exit... [22:03] Then, in a terminal (Alt+F2 -> konsole), run the following commands: sudo service networking restart; sudo service network-manager restart [22:04] <^Lightning^> no lines below iface xxxxxxxx [22:04] <^Lightning^> auto lo [22:04] <^Lightning^> iface lo inet loopback [22:04] <^Lightning^> Tha'ts it [22:05] ^Lightning^: Oook... Then let's have a look at /var/lib/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.state. Could you pastebin the contents of that file? [22:06] <^Lightning^> 1 min [22:06] contrast: btw ever tried the network manager with WICD backend? does it work> [22:07] shadeslayer_: Never tried it. NM generally does the job for me. :) [22:07] hmm.. my nm doesnt connect to WEP networks sometimes :P [22:07] <^Lightning^> I did that with a kdesudo kate [22:07] <^Lightning^> Either empty, or non existent [22:07] Hmmmm, all I get when I set managed=true and then restart network-manager is "Network Management disabled" [22:07] and indeed, the state says so too [22:09] KjetilK: Pastebin your /etc/network/interfaces and /var/lib/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.state files? [22:10] ^Lightning^: I just googled "ar242x wireless ubuntu" (no quotes) and it showed several promising hits. Sounds like a hardware issue, so I'd start there. :) [22:10] <^Lightning^> I've tried it all before [22:11] <^Lightning^> Nothing works. It worked for a week and stopped suddenly [22:11] "hardware issue" as in you're missing a module. [22:11] ^Lightning^: So you installed madwifi? [22:11] I allso had wireless problems sicne last week and kernel update i think [22:11] knetworkmanager is disabled allways [22:11] bu wicd seems to work for me [22:11] Or do you mean it was working out of the box? [22:12] <^Lightning^> I did something [22:12] <^Lightning^> From some guide [22:12] <^Lightning^> Now it's all screwed up [22:12] Did you save said guide to your bookmarks by any chance? That doesn't really give me much to go on. ;) [22:13] or maybe check your history :P [22:13] <^Lightning^> I have a guide in my bookmarks [22:14] <^Lightning^> But I don't think it [22:14] <^Lightning^> it's THAT one. [22:14] contrast, OK, I have to get it back on the net with interfaces to do that, just a minute [22:15] http://paste.ubuntu.com/447411/ [22:16] shouldn't be any surprises there... [22:16] brb, phone... [22:19] KjetilK: sudo mv /var/lib/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.state ~; sudo service network-manager restart [22:19] hej everyone. I installed fglrx which worked quite well but I can't activete composite in KDE. fglrxinfo gives me no errors [22:20] KjetilK: Then just restart KNetworkManager [22:21] Hi, I want to change notifications from bottom/up to left/right where exactly is the source code of notificatio widget on taskbar [22:21] ? [22:24] contrast, ah, there, finally [22:24] How do you get kmail to Forward and email with an attachment.. so far I've found it strips the attachment [22:25] since I had used ifup -a -i /root/interfaces, I had to ifdown that first, kill knetworkmanager, which appeared to be hanging, then restart network-manager, then start knetworkmanager [22:26] thanks a lot [22:26] Scunizi: tried googling? ( ive only just started using kmail ) [22:28] glad to help. :) [22:30] i am trying to install dependencies for building kde on 10.04, is there any replacement for the libcaptury-dev package ? [22:31] it seems to be dropped. [22:34] tazz: one sec [22:35] !find libcaptury-dev [22:35] Package/file libcaptury-dev does not exist in lucid [22:35] tazz: what depends on it? [22:36] shadeslayer_, its mentioned at http://techbase.kde.org/Getting_Started/Build/KDE4/Kubuntu_and_Debian [22:36] tazz: btw #kubuntu-devel might have more idea on this [22:36] shadeslayer_, yup [22:36] tazz: its a optional dep [22:37] shadeslayer_, yes i know, i am ignoring it for now. But i just wanted to make sure i was not missing something before i modify the documentation :) [22:37] tazz: :) [22:37] tazz: you can pull in all the deps with apt-get build-dep kdebase-workspace [22:38] well... most of them,those are the deps that the official packages were built against [22:38] yup [22:38] well the page could be outofdate [22:39] probably... === dendrobates is now known as dendro-afk === chalcedny is now known as chalcedony` === chalcedony is now known as chalcedny === chalcedony` is now known as chalcedony === bobbert is now known as \bobbert_ === hagebake is now known as hagabaka === \bobbert_ is now known as bobbert === bobbert is now known as Guest82331 === Guest82331 is now known as bobbert_ === shadeslayer_ is now known as shadeslayer === carine_ is now known as Yalocha-Lukumi [23:53] I hate when newer versions of KDE are on ppa, they cause some programs/plasmoids to be removed [23:56] hagabaka: thats because upstream KDE removed them [23:58] oh
