| debrisrat | hi ! | 01:01 |
| razer | hello there | 01:01 |
| IIVQ | hello | 01:01 |
| razer | how's your day | 01:01 |
| IIVQ | occasionally, in kubuntu LL, I get a fully black "background" | 01:01 |
| debrisrat | good :) | 01:01 |
| IIVQ | the background goes over my widgets | 01:01 |
| IIVQ | and I can add icons to it | 01:01 |
| IIVQ | so it appears to be a "widget" that covers all other widgets | 01:02 |
| IIVQ | don't know how to get rid of it though | 01:02 |
| IIVQ | it does cover both monitors, but not the 2nd desktop | 01:02 |
| razer | probably the widget layer | 01:02 |
| IIVQ | could be | 01:03 |
| IIVQ | how do I get rid of it? | 01:03 |
| razer | no idea | 01:03 |
| IIVQ | rebooting works, but I don't want to reboot now | 01:03 |
| razer | look at your htop | 01:03 |
| IIVQ | pff there's so much things I need to "fix" on this distro | 01:03 |

| === poet is now known as pansz | ||
| DarthFrog | kpilot | 02:46 |
| nUboon2Age | Please forgive me if you answered this Kubuntu beginner's question already -- I lost my connection. How do you sync Kontact with a Palm Pilot and can you sync Kontact w/ UbuntuOne like Evolution does? | 02:47 |
| DarthFrog | kpilot | 02:47 |
| nUboon2Age | DarthFrog: do you have experience w/ kpilot? Is it still working in Lucid does anyone know? | 02:48 |
| DarthFrog | I have no idea; I don't have a Palm device. Nor do I use Kontact. :-) | 02:49 |
| nUboon2Age | DarthFrog: ok, thank you. | 02:49 |
| nUboon2Age | also I don't see kpilot in the current repository, so it made me wonder if it was still functional or if there was an alternative? | 02:51 |
| DarthFrog | nUboon2Age: I just did "apt-cache search kpilot" and it came back with korganizer and a library. So give korganizer a try. | 02:55 |
| JontheEchidna | Oh, the author of kpilot stopped making it. It's not around anymore :( | 02:55 |
| nUboon2Age | DarthFrog: okay i'll check korganizer out, and thanks JontheEchidna for the info. Do you know a current alternative? | 02:56 |
| JontheEchidna | Unfortunately no :( | 02:56 |
| JontheEchidna | maybe gnome-pilot | 02:57 |
| JontheEchidna | I've never had a Palm, so I've never run either kpilot or gnome-pilot | 02:57 |
| nUboon2Age | JontheEchidna: DarthFrog: Good news for me: I checked and found another irc channel (#kpilot) here, and asked and they said there's a couple of people who are starting to develop it again. | 03:03 |

| anthony_ | hi there. can anybody say.... if i use gparted to repartition a drive, wil i lose grub 2. (i think it's associated with the linux distro on the partition to be changed) | 10:22 |
| moetunes | sounds like you will anthony_ | 10:24 |
| anthony_ | How do i reinstall grub. I assume i could use a live cd (usb)? | 10:25 |
| anthony_ | moetunes: thanks for the reply | 10:25 |
| moetunes | anthony_: if you're using 10.04 kubuntu you need to read up on grub2 | 10:25 |
| moetunes | !grub2 | 10:26 |
| ubottu | GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager since Karmic. For more information and troubleshooting on GRUB2 please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 | 10:26 |

| === schmidtm_ is now known as schmidtm | ||
| anthony_ | moetunes: i am reading up. Do you think i could boot to the live disk and just install it via synaptic? does synpatic work in live cd? (maybe not) | 10:33 |
| moetunes | anthony_: it wouldn't save to the hdd from the livecd | 10:34 |
| anthony_ | moetunes: thanks again. there is no rush, as i can still use the storage space with mint, and get to it from kubuntu. just want everything set just right. i'll spend some time reading. Thanks again. | 10:35 |
| moetunes | anthony_: you could set up the grub from the os you want to keep using | 10:35 |
| anthony_ | moetunes: if i set it up, while there is another one, would it just replace it? also i'm noticing that in synaptic, it shows grub is already installed in this distro... | 10:36 |
| anthony_ | moetunes: don't know how to boot to Kubuntu if grub gets disabled | 10:37 |
| moetunes | anthony_: if you aren't going to format a partition grub should still be there to work | 10:38 |
| tsimpson | grub is installed to the disk (not a partition) by default | 10:38 |
| moetunes | and reads its' config from /boot | 10:39 |
| tsimpson | but the partition it looks at is configurable | 10:39 |
| tsimpson | and you can install thing in the LiveCD, and it's not stored to disk but in compressed RAM | 10:40 |
| tsimpson | *things | 10:40 |
| anthony_ | moetunes: the truth is, i tried to repartition before, couldnt boot, and then reinstalled mint. (all i could think to do to get to the other os's | 10:40 |
| anthony_ | tsimpson: thanks. how do i just do grub from the live cd without continuing with install. (i thought i heard that was possible) | 10:41 |
| Torch | anthony_: you can always reinstall grub from a live cd | 10:41 |
| anthony_ | do i just cancel after the partitioning part of the install process? | 10:42 |
| tsimpson | the grub installer is already installed on the CD | 10:42 |
| tsimpson | just run it manually | 10:42 |
| Torch | anthony_: no. don't boot the installer option, run the live cd ("try out kubuntu"9 | 10:42 |
| anthony_ | yeah. but just alt/f2 grub? | 10:42 |
| anthony_ | thanks for all the help, by the way. sorry to be a dummy | 10:43 |
| Torch | anthony_: run a konsole session. the command is grub-install <device>, but i'm not sure if this suffices if you're in a live cd environment | 10:43 |
| * Torch would have to look that up. | 10:43 | |
| Torch | anthony_: i don't do that everyday ;-) | 10:44 |
| anthony_ | torch: don't sweat it. i haven't spent the appropriate time looking it up..... i will | 10:44 |

| alexs__ | hello world :) | 13:54 |
| daleglass | Hi! It seems that for some reason KDE isn't using PulseAudio. In the sound settings, PA doesn't appear as an option, and knotify4 has the /dev/snd files open, so it's using ALSA. Is there a package that's missing, perhaps? | 13:55 |
| tsimpson | as long as you have pulseaudio installed, KDE should detect it | 13:57 |
| BluesKaj | daleglass, lucid ? | 13:57 |
| daleglass | BluesKaj: yep | 13:57 |
| BluesKaj | daleglass, I noticed that PA wasn't included when I did a clean install 2 weeks ago , even after updates it didn't come down the pipe .Maybe the devs got the message that pci audio cards benefit more than the onboards so it's become optional in the repos. | 13:59 |
| daleglass | PA is running, though | 14:01 |
| tsimpson | Kubuntu never used pulse by default, only if you installed it manually or also have ubuntu/gnome installed | 14:01 |
| daleglass | http://imagebin.ca/view/11zW-8.html | 14:01 |
| daleglass | hmm, that is odd. I think some gnome app might have pulled PA in | 14:02 |

| DT` | has anyone ever used a cellphone as a 3g modem via bluetooth? | 14:10 |
| BluesKaj | daleglass, PA works best with pci cards that have more extaensive options/capabilities than laptop audio , PA is basically redundant on a laptop , providing another layer of unnecessary audio processing .

| trakinas | hi all! Im having issues with my audio device. I used not to... I can't read the message that popups up, but it basically get stuck sometimes or skip. is there anywhere I can check for the messages Kde shows? | 16:17 |
| JontheEchidna | trakinas: what version of kubuntu? | 16:18 |
| trakinas | 9.04 | 16:18 |
| trakinas | never had troubles before. is started about a month or so. | 16:18 |
| JontheEchidna | hmm, in 10.04 there is the feature to check the old notifications by clicking the "i" button in the tray, but that's probably not in 9.04 | 16:19 |
| trakinas | yeah. I thought about clicking there, but there is nothing there. | 16:20 |
| JontheEchidna | you could try hitting the "Prt Scr" button on the keyboard really quickly when the error pops up, so that it would take a screenshot | 16:20 |
| trakinas | heheheh. the trouble is how to reproduce it... it shows up once and never again. | 16:21 |
| trakinas | it says something about Amarok not being able to use the audio device. | 16:22 |
| trakinas | though I can play... is it just annoying that it does not play smoothly.... | 16:22 |

| bendersteed | for mozilla there is also a oxygen theme | 17:35 |

| _2 | /ban *quassel@* | 17:45 |
| Pici | Uh. No. | 17:45 |
| mika__ | bendersteed: how do i get them ? (oxygen theme and plasma notify... theme i think mozilla website, the other? is a plugin or a package?) | 17:47 |
| bendersteed | it is a plugin, and a theme both from firefox addons site | 17:48 |
| bendersteed | https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/12196/ | 17:49 |
| bendersteed | https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/59338/ | 17:50 |
| bendersteed | there you are both of em and firefox is sweet | 17:50 |
| mika__ | bendersteed: i kinda already have the oxygen theme, but it's not installed, the icons are them though........ anything else i should install ? (for firefox or kubuntu in general) | 17:51 |
| bendersteed | well I like softtasks plasmoid for task manager, really customizable. And konversation instead of quassel.. | 17:52 |
| bendersteed | i use colibri notifications instead of the native ones. They are like ubuntu notifications | 17:53 |

| Kuwanger | For some reason, on first startup, my system reports about 49MB free with "free -m" (the right column of the "-/+ buffers/cache:" line). If I restart the system, my system reports about 160MB free with "free -m". It's like the first startup is leaking ~110MB. | 18:09 |

| corigo | Just (possibly foolishly) updated to the latest and greatest as suggested by the update manager, and on restart X11 complains and want's to open in Low Graphics mode. Any suggestions? | 21:03 |
| wwx22 | You can try backing up you /etc/X11/xorg.conf file by copying to something like xorg.conf.bak. | 21:05 |
| wwx22 | 10.04 should be able to run without an xorg.conf now by autodetecting everything | 21:05 |

| Apollonovich | so...since I upgraded to lucid, my machine can't properly interact with my dvd drives. | 22:28 |
| Apollonovich | to verify that the problem was ubuntu, I successfully did a clean re-install, and the machine had no difficulty booting from the drives, or installing from cdrom media. | 22:29 |
| Apollonovich | but I can't read or write cdroms from kde. | 22:29 |

| BluesKaj | the wallet always asking for a pw for wifi connect after login, is getting boring...any fixes out there ? | 22:37 |
| Apollonovich | ok, seriously? the QC on lucid blows. since I upgraded, things have broken left and right. So I spent half my work day today reinstalling and getting everything set back up. And my original problems are still there, only now the nvidia binary driver is also acting up. this is retarded. yeah, I get it, it's free, but don't put out a release until you test crap a little more. I'm going back to suse. | 22:45 |
| * bongfrog is having serious issues with network-manager and it's continuning insistance that it is unmanaged. I have googled for two days now. I though I had it working yesterday (well it was working but then I had to reboot) any tips? | 22:45 | |
| * bongfrog is running 10.04. Everything was great until a reboot a couple of days ago then boom. I thought that network-manager problems were fix after 9.04. I have changed managed=true in /etc/Networkmanager/nm-system-settings.conf, played with /etc/networking/interfaces GOOGLE has no more solutions that I can find. Help | 22:56 | |
| Apollonovich | what exactly happened to the grub configuration on 10.04? I can't find menu.lst, nor can I figure out how to get to a grub prompt or otherwise configure it. | 23:01 |
| bongfrog | Apollonovich: grub2 is very different. Look at the ubuntu wiki for grub2 | 23:05 |
| * bongfrog is not sure if grub2 is a ste forward.... | 23:06 | |
| bongfrog | er step | 23:06 |
| BluesKaj | !grub2 | Apollonovich | 23:06 |
| ubottu | Apollonovich: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager since Karmic. For more information and troubleshooting on GRUB2 please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 | 23:06 |
| Apollonovich | bongfrog: yeah, I just noticed the /etc/grub.d directory. it's much more opaque than the old grub. i'm really starting to miss the simplicity of the days of slackware 7. | 23:07 |
| Apollonovich | I mean, I use ubuntu cause I no longer have time to tinker with everything and just want things to work. It's kind of infuriating when I upgrade and find everything broken. | 23:08 |
| Apollonovich | (moreover, when things have changed so much since the days when I *did* have time to tinker that I have to relearn everything in order to do so) | 23:09 |
| * bongfrog also missed the simpler day of only using certain hardware that was known to work and just a commandline for networking. grin | 23:11 | |
| Apollonovich | hehehehe | 23:12 |
| Apollonovich | on that topic...i'm finding in the googlesphere that apparently all_generic_ide=1 is a solution to my non-functioning dvd-ram drives -- are you familiar with this option? it makes me leery, since it sounds like the sort of thing that will cripple my SATA drives in order to make the legacy systems work. | 23:13 |
| bongfrog | Apollonovich: the wiki has a good description of what to change for dual boot and such. Not all that bad if you forget all you know of grub(1) | 23:13 |
| BluesKaj | I'm afraid the efforts to develop a new release every 6 mos is misguided. It just creates too may problems for those using kubuntu on the job and at home. | 23:13 |
| bongfrog | Apollonovich: sorry bro, I have not had to fight that battle yet. Guess it is not so bad to have an old laptop sometimes. grin | 23:14 |
| Apollonovich | BluesKaj: agreed. I don't mind as much on my home machine, where bleeding edge is sometimes nice, but I'm really leaning towards just buying a SLES license for the office. | 23:15 |
| bongfrog | BluesKaj: I agree especialy since 10.04 is a LTS release and should have a bit more testing and a bit less new features (read as: use 9.10 and just the stable important fixes) | 23:16 |
| BluesKaj | SLES license ? sorry I'm a home user and retired , so I'm not familiar with that. | 23:16 |
| Apollonovich | BluesKaj: suse enterprise == well tested commercial linux with KDE desktop. | 23:17 |
| BluesKaj | bongfrog, yeah, I'm somewhat disappointed with lucid's lack of maturity, so to speak. | 23:18 |
| BluesKaj | Apollonovich, ahh | 23:18 |
| Apollonovich | I dunno...I'm extremely frustrated with lucid. upon upgrading, I had nepomuk eating my entire system's ram...kernel panics due to bugs in the install kernel's disk subsystem...unusable optical drives...printing that worked from firefox, but not from any kde apps....the list just goes on. | 23:19 |
| bongfrog | Apollonovich: on my music computer (runs the realtime kernel) i have had very good luck with fadora 12 but I am sure Network -manager would bite my ass there also if I used it, grin | 23:19 |
| Apollonovich | hehehe | 23:19 |
| bongfrog | ps if you have the network-manager ass bite take a look in /var/lib/Network-Manager/Network-Manager.state then restart it. have great days all..... | 23:20 |
| BluesKaj | NM is a real pita , for alot of wifi users ...I just dump it in favour of /etc/network/interfaces for my desktop linux boxes running ethernet | 23:21 |
| Apollonovich | excellent. yet another snag. Apparently, in lucid, you can't get the nvidia binary drivers to work unless you uninstall the experimental nouveau x.org driver because of a conflict. yet another example of shoddy/nonexistent testing. | 23:34 |
