| cato37 | ReHello channel. i installed kubuntu with an cd iso (10.04) burned onto a dvd. its a matsushita (matshita) uj-850S. the dvd will read and write, but the cd will not read or write. it will not show up at all in kubuntu, but it will spin and make noises as though it can read it. i just put in the same iso burned onto a cd (done on another comp), and it reads it, so it is in the settings somewhere. does anyone know how to change the settings so | 01:42 |
| cato37 | that kubuntu will read the cd's? | 01:42 |

| otswin | hello, why do i get "Password for 'default' GNOME keyring" on kubuntu every time i try to use svn? | 13:44 |
| Torch | otswin: add the following line to your ~/.subversion/config file | 13:47 |
| Torch | password-stores = | 13:47 |
| Torch | (yes, there is NOTHING after the =) | 13:47 |
| otswin | oh, nice :) | 13:49 |
| otswin | why did this do? | 13:49 |
| muesli | otswin: or rather, enter kwallet | 13:51 |
| muesli | if you want to use that instead of the gnome keyring | 13:51 |
| otswin | what* | 13:51 |
| otswin | no it's ok i don't know to store the passwords | 13:51 |
| Ites | I don't know how to use wine to install something using an ISO file, can someone help me please? | 13:59 |
| otswin | Ites: ISO is an image of a CD/DVD, is there CD/DVD for windows? | 13:59 |
| otswin | is the* | 14:00 |
| Ites | it's for football manager. i'm sure it runs with wine | 14:00 |
| Ites | but it's an iso, to install from wine i need to give to path to the .exe file | 14:00 |
| otswin | it's the image of a CD so i guess you need to mount it first | 14:01 |
| Ites | how do you do that ? | 14:04 |
| Torch | Ites: sudo mount -o loop <isofile> <mount-point> | 14:12 |
| Ites | i did that Torch, then cd /mnt/disk and ls -l but then i get response 0 | 14:13 |
| Ites | after that i tried wine setup.exe | 14:13 |
| Ites | but it did nothing | 14:13 |
| Ites | or shouldn't i use /mnt/disk as mount point ? | 14:15 |
| Torch | Ites: it does not matter, the mount point just has to exist. | 14:15 |
| Ites | ? | 14:15 |
| Ites | I don't know if that excists.. | 14:16 |
| Ites | i just want that iso mounted so i can install the setup.exe using wine, but no idea where to moiunt it | 14:18 |
| Torch | Ites: it does not matter, the mount point just has to exist. | 14:32 |

| jimmy51_ | i've just downloaded dwg2dxf, an open source tool. i'm trying to configure/make/make install but am getting errors on the make that are beyond me. anyone care to take a look? http://pastebin.com/jqZHgZEj | 18:52 |
| Torch | jimmy51_: you're missing the c++ headers | 18:52 |
| jimmy51_ | Torch: hmm, those aren't a part of build-essential? | 18:53 |
| Torch | jimmy51_: probably not, because it's c++ | 18:53 |
| anirudh24seven | am unable to record using audacity... never have used my in-built mic earlier on kubuntu... works fine on windows | 18:54 |
| Torch | jimmy51_: there's a libstdc++6-x-y-dev package that goes with your compiler version. install it. | 18:54 |
| jimmy51_ | Torch: do you happen to know the package name? | 18:54 |
| jimmy51_ | Torch: ah | 18:54 |
| jimmy51_ | Torch: i've got libstdc++6-4.4-dev already. | 18:56 |
| jimmy51_ | maybe an environment var issue? | 18:56 |
| Torch | jimmy51_: it doesn | 18:56 |
| Torch | oops | 18:56 |
| Torch | jimmy51_: the compiler does not find iostream.h. either because it's not installed or because it's not lookin in the right place | 18:57 |
| shadeslayer | James147: bug is here https://launchpad.net/bugs/603276 | 18:57 |
| shadeslayer | the package should be built fully in 20 mins or so | 18:57 |
| jimmy51_ | Torch: is that an environment variable setting? (where that file and other headers are) | 18:58 |
| Torch | jimmy51_: no | 18:58 |
| Torch | jimmy51_: where did you get that download? | 18:59 |
| jimmy51_ | Torch: http://sourceforge.net/projects/lx-viewer/files/ | 18:59 |
| Torch | jimmy51_: which file? | 19:00 |
| jimmy51_ | Torch: http://sourceforge.net/projects/lx-viewer/files/DWG%20to%20DXF/Command%20Line%20Utility%202.1/ | 19:01 |
| Torch | jimmy51_: doesn't build here either. lemme see why. | 19:02 |
| dragoness | have a nice time | 19:02 |
| dragoness | bye bye | 19:02 |
| jimmy51_ | Torch: ah, at least it's not just me :) | 19:02 |
| anirudh24seven | can some1 help me ? | 19:03 |
| Torch | jimmy51_: no, this thing's build system is seriously broken. | 19:03 |
| shadeslayer | anirudh24seven: sure go ahead | 19:03 |
| anirudh24seven | am not able to enable mic | 19:04 |
| jimmy51_ | Torch: am i pretty much out of luck with this app then? | 19:04 |
| Torch | jimmy51_: it's also ten years old. that might explain it. | 19:04 |
| anirudh24seven | kmix's title bar reads HDA intel | 19:04 |
| shadeslayer | anirudh24seven: ok,and which app doesnt read the mic? | 19:04 |
| anirudh24seven | audacity | 19:04 |
| jimmy51_ | Torch: man, i guess i'm stuck with windows for reading cad files then | 19:04 |
| Torch | jimmy51_: i doubt it will build without modification. c++ compilers have evolved a lot since 1999 ;-) | 19:04 |
| shadeslayer | eww. | 19:04 |
| jimmy51_ | Torch: at least, cad filese made in autocad. man, 1999! | 19:04 |
| shadeslayer | anirudh24seven: well.. idk if this will help or not,but in kmix theres a Settings > Configure kmix option | 19:05 |
| shadeslayer | anirudh24seven: just go there and select all options,or drag them to the right side,then set your mic to full and unmute it | 19:05 |
| shadeslayer | usually your mic is at a very low volume or is muted | 19:06 |
| anirudh24seven | do i need to enable capture / | 19:06 |
| anirudh24seven | ? | 19:06 |
| jimmy51_ | Torch: thanks for looking into it. i get frustrated trying to compile and install myself. | 19:06 |
| shadeslayer | anirudh24seven: yes | 19:07 |
| Torch | jimmy51_: yw, sorry i couldn't make it work for you. | 19:07 |
| jimmy51_ | Torch: no prob, seems like a market problem (no demand for an app for this need) not a technical one | 19:08 |
| anirudh24seven | shadeslayer: i now see a lot of options... Master, PCM, Digital, Mic, Capture, Capture 2, Capture 3, ATAPI Mic, Beep, Mute IEC958 and also 3 drop-down boxes, with the labels Input Source, Input Source 2, Input Source 3... | 19:09 |
| shadeslayer | yes,see the Digital Mic and Capture options | 19:09 |
| shadeslayer | all of them should be high and unmuted | 19:09 |
| anirudh24seven | they are... | 19:09 |
| anirudh24seven | do i modify the input sources ? | 19:09 |
| shadeslayer | not sure what you mean | 19:10 |
| shadeslayer | but sure... go ahead and play :P | 19:10 |
| anirudh24seven | from the drop down box with the label Input Source, i can see the following options | 19:10 |
| anirudh24seven | Mic, Front Mic, Line, CD | 19:10 |
| anirudh24seven | which one refers to my in-built mic ? | 19:11 |
| shadeslayer | anirudh24seven: hmmm.. sure .. set it to high | 19:11 |
| shadeslayer | probably capture 1,2 and digital mic | 19:11 |
| anirudh24seven | there's no option to capture digital mic | 19:14 |
| James147 | shadeslayer: installing now... | 19:15 |
| shadeslayer | James147: whee :D | 19:16 |
| James147 | shadeslayer: installs and runs fine | 19:17 |
| shadeslayer | James147: can you leave a comment on that bug link? also what does : apt-cache policy say | 19:18 |
| shadeslayer | uh | 19:18 |
| shadeslayer | James147: apt-cache policy kraft | 19:18 |
| James147 | shadeslayer: :S although after i passed the database window it now says there is a problem with The Qt database driver could not be loaded @S | 19:19 |
| shadeslayer | James147: thats a issue with qt then... not kraft... | 19:20 |
| James147 | shadeslayer: just saying :) | 19:21 |
| shadeslayer | James147: ;) | 19:21 |
| James147 | shadeslayer: apt-cache policy kraft >> http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/tNYe49Wh | 19:23 |
| shadeslayer | James147: thats the old version :) | 19:24 |
| James147 | :S | 19:24 |
| shadeslayer | James147: one sec... leeme check the ppa | 19:24 |
| shadeslayer | James147: amd64 is yet to compile.. you will recieve a notfication | 19:25 |
| shadeslayer | for a upgrade | 19:25 |

| nicolas_ | hi!! | 19:40 |
| nicolas_ | somebody coul tell me how to restore the original config of the plasma panel, i think this is the way is called, in kubuntu 10.04 netbook?? | 19:42 |
| nicolas_ | my sister erased some panels acidentally and I don't know how to bring them back | 19:43 |
| James147 | nicolas_: to reset plasma (including the paneel and desktop) delete: ~/.kde/share/config/plasma-desktoprc (or plasma-desktop-appletsrc or plasmarc) i suggest making a backup of them first | 19:44 |
| James147 | nicolas_: you can also add panels back by right clicking the desktop > add panel | 19:45 |
| James147 | (but on kde 4.4.x or ealier they will be blank) | 19:45 |
| shadeslayer | James147: btw im parting this channel,catch me on #kubuntu-devel ;) | 19:45 |
| nicolas_ | adding them by right click it doesn't put them back the way they were | 19:45 |
| James147 | nicolas_: then deleting the above files will (note they will reset your entire desktop back to the default) | 19:46 |
| James147 | nicolas_: after deleting them you will need to restart plasma-desktop (to do that run: killall plasma-desktop && plasma-desktop) | 19:47 |
| === jussi is now known as jussio1 | ||
| nicolas_ | i can't find the folders, how i can fin them, sorry I'm new with linux | 19:48 |
| === jussi01 is now known as jussi | ||
| nicolas_ | this folder are in the usr folder? | 19:49 |
| James147 | nicolas_: ~/ means you home directory (/home/USERNAME) you should just beable to type ~/.kde/share/config/ into dolphin to get stright to it | 19:51 |
| James147 | nicolas_: also the "." infrount of .kde means that .kde is a hidden folder | 19:51 |
| James147 | ~/.kde is where all kde config files are kept for your user | 19:52 |
| nicolas_ | i found them, the .de folder is hidden within the home folder | 19:52 |
| James147 | nicolas_: the /usr folder is a system folder so you shouldnt find any user level stuff in there | 19:53 |
| James147 | nicolas_: note: $HOME /home/USERNAME and ~ all point to the same location (if you replace USERNAME with your username :) ) | 19:54 |
| nicolas | i found the .kde folder, but i couldn't find no plasma folder, i have a spanish version of kubuntu maybe is called a different way, | 20:01 |
| nicolas | james147 I'm the same nicolas_ the battery on my netbook went down | 20:02 |
| James147 | nicolas: did you find ~/.kde/share/config ? | 20:02 |
| nicolas | sorry, yes I jus found them, for some reason i was looking in other directory | 20:04 |
| James147 | nicolas: ok, then delete, rename or move them and restart plamsa-desktop and your desktop should be back to the default settings | 20:05 |
| James147 | nicolas: note: almost all kde apps keep theri config files here so if you need to reset a kde application this is normally a good palce to start (some apps keep larger data such as databases in ~/.kde/share/apps) | 20:06 |
| nicolas | ok, I'll do this. Thanks! I'm just starting with linux, I hope I can adapt to it :) . Bye | 20:09 |

| Zeik | Hello everyone. | 21:10 |
| Zeik | Does anyone have any trouble running Applications through Wine in 10.04? If so, could i get any tips on how to improve performance and prevent crashes? | 21:11 |
| James147 | Zeik: Wine is highly tempramental :S some things work some just dont... | 21:12 |
| James147 | !wine | Zeik | 21:12 |
| ubottu | Zeik: WINE is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux - More information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine - Search the !AppDB for application compatibility ratings - Join #winehq for application help - See !virtualizers for running Windows (or another OS) inside Ubuntu | 21:12 |
| Zeik | I would like to continue to run Wine as stable as i can like it did in version 1.0.1. But i cannot seem to find a .DEB package for it, i am unable to install it manually and compile it. | 21:13 |
| Zeik | I used it in Kubuntu 8.10 and it was extremely stable, i was able to run just about every single one of my games. | 21:13 |
| James147 | Zeik: http://www.winehq.org/ the development version is usually better then the stable version for wine (the stable version is very old now and there have been alot of improvments in wine) | 21:14 |
| Zeik | Well, i run an Intel 950 GMA chipset, all of the uptiered versions of Wine have had problems so far on this IGP. | 21:15 |
| Zeik | I would just like to find a .DEB of Wine 1.0.1 | 21:16 |
| mu3en | 10.04, with themed greeter and splash screen disabled, whenever i log in there is a brief flash of the blue default desktop [as plasma loads, i guess], rather than the custom wallpaper or background color, anyone know how to prevent that. | 21:16 |
| James147 | Zeik: if you need more spific help with it you might want to consider asking on #winehq | 21:16 |
| Zeik | Oh, Wine has a channel? | 21:16 |
| Zeik | Haha, i would have never thought about that. | 21:16 |
| Zeik | Ok, thank you James. | 21:16 |
| Zeik | I appreciate it. | 21:16 |
| Zeik | Oh, nvm. | 21:19 |
| Zeik | I found a webpage hosting a good amount of links to older versions. | 21:19 |
| Zeik | http://www.rpmseek.com/rpm-dl/wine_1.0.1-0ubuntu8_i386.html?hl=com&cx=0:-:0:7728412:0:0:0: | 21:19 |
| Ites | has someone been playing FM2010 with wine around here ? | 21:23 |
| burr__ | i got an error when i logged in that said something to the effect of internal communication error...make sure dcopserver was running | 21:30 |
| solifugus | So, is kubuntu slowly branching away from ubuntu? | 22:06 |
| maco | it has always been the kde one... | 22:06 |
| blain | ubuntu should be kde | 22:06 |
| solifugus | but it has a different installer and someone told me there was a bit of a mind to move more away, so it wouldn't be so second-handish, as per Mark Shuttleworth.. | 22:07 |
| solifugus | we could rename it.. you know, somethin glike "kick-buttu" | 22:07 |
| maco | the installer is simply rewritten in qt | 22:08 |
| Torch | solifugus: it has a different installer? arent the installers just frontends? | 22:08 |
| maco | Torch: yep | 22:08 |
| maco | and the move away... kubuntu sticks to as-vanilla-as-reasonable kde. ubuntu seems to be forking gnome. meh. | 22:09 |
| burr__ | forking? | 22:09 |
| maco | well it is nowhere near vanilla | 22:09 |
| maco | and gnome2 seems to be living on in its own variety in ubuntu found nowhere else on the linux desktop | 22:10 |
| maco | while gnome is moving on to gnome3 | 22:10 |
| solifugus | maco: I'd make some fixes.. kde has become less intuitive in various ways, since 3.5 | 22:10 |
| maco | like systemsettings? | 22:10 |
| maco | 4.5 is an improvement there | 22:10 |
| Torch | solifugus: it's just different. | 22:11 |
| burr__ | how do i know which version of kde im running, and how do i get a different version? | 22:11 |
| maco | 4.5 will be in 10.10 | 22:11 |
| Torch | burr__: any kde app: help -> about kde | 22:11 |
| maco | 10.04 has 4.4.2 | 22:12 |
| solifugus | Options are great.. but just about everyone hates that desktop activity thing.. and those not familiar with kde really get tripped up on single-click icons.. | 22:12 |
| blain | thats tweakable | 22:13 |
| solifugus | to me, kde 3.5 was for everybody--even grandmas.. but kde 4 is for techies... It's all tweakable, but by default.. it's for techies. | 22:13 |
| nuovodna | when will be available kde 4.4.92 for lucid ? | 22:13 |
| burr__ | so how do i tweak single-click icons? | 22:13 |
| Torch | solifugus: 3.5 had single click per default. | 22:14 |
| solifugus | it did.. although I don't mind single-click, i always thought that was a bad thing to have as a default. It takes people a while to stop double-clicking.. in the meanwhile, they get two of everything. | 22:15 |
| solifugus | burr__: if you don't like it, you switch it to double-click.. kde is more customizable than gnome.. | 22:15 |
| burr__ | well i don't mind it | 22:15 |
| maco | burr__: in 4.5 its systemsettings -> input devices -> mouse... in 4.4 i think its systemsettings -> mouse and keyboard -> mouse | 22:15 |
| solifugus | neither do i | 22:15 |
| Torch | maco: yep | 22:16 |
| burr__ | but there are some things i would like to change...such as the application menu | 22:16 |
| maco | solifugus: the activities thing changed again | 22:16 |
| maco | solifugus: now it's simply teh ability to tie certain plasmoids to certain desktops | 22:16 |
| maco | yay for usability testing | 22:16 |
| maco | solifugus: see, some people have to unlearn double click so they get 2 things. others have not yet figured out how to click twice quickly so they cant get things that require double click to do anything at all | 22:17 |
| maco | try teaching a new person to use a computer. "double click" "whats that?" "click twice" "*slowly click once* *pause* *slowly click again* ... nothing happened" | 22:18 |
| solifugus | maco: that was the argument with kde 1.0... I remember.. but even then, pretty much everybody minus about 0.00001% of people were used to double-click. | 22:18 |
| maco | thats because back then everyone using it was a techie :P | 22:18 |
| solifugus | I've always disagreed with that as a default.. even though I like single-click for myself | 22:18 |
| maco | now that nontechies use linux, thinking about people who cant handle double clicking actually matters | 22:18 |
| solifugus | maco: first impressions count. Those who cannot double-click are a tiny almost non-existant minority.. those who are annoyed by single-click are almost everyone first introduced to it. | 22:20 |
| solifugus | not a huge deal, though | 22:20 |
| Torch | solifugus: talk to the people on the kde usability list about this | 22:20 |
| Torch | solifugus: it won't help much if you discuss it here ;-) | 22:20 |
| maco | i just realised i didnt change the default settings at all on this install of kubuntu | 22:20 |
| solifugus | it'd be a troll anywhere.. really.. it's too old an argument | 22:20 |
| maco | and ive had this install for a few weeks | 22:21 |
| maco | so apparently adjusting to single click isnt that hard, if it took me weeks to notice that i wasnt double clicking | 22:21 |
| solifugus | is there a quick way to lock my desktop, not logout or shutdown? | 22:21 |
| maco | ctrl+alt+L i think? | 22:22 |
| solifugus | yep.. that's it.. I'm off to home now.. | 22:22 |
| nuovodna | when will be available kde 4.4.92 for lucid ? | 22:23 |
| zePh7r | I installed adobe reader 9 available in the repositories but have know acknowledged there's only a deutch version available. how come? | 22:41 |
| zegenie_ | maco: activities is changing again, but it's not just "certain plasmoids on certain desktops" | 22:53 |
| zegenie_ | but I don't even think they know what it's suppose to be, themselves | 22:53 |
| BluesKaj | zePh7r, your repos is based on the location you entered when you installed kubuntu, just change the repository by opening the package manager and choosing the main server | 22:53 |
| BluesKaj | then sudo apt-get update | 22:54 |
| zePh7r | BluesKaj: for real? never thought that would have any effect on the localization of the packages (it's really lame as a matter of fact) | 22:56 |
| zePh7r | oh by the the way, even doing what BluesKaj suggested, deutch version is still the only one available on the repos | 23:00 |
| BluesKaj | zePh7r, well i could be wrong , but that's what I did when my repos were real slow ..never used any repos other than english ones | 23:00 |
| zePh7r | hopefully, it's not too much of an hassle to download manually the .deb from adobe servers | 23:01 |
| BluesKaj | zePh7r, there are alternatives to the adobe reader | 23:01 |
| zePh7r | yeah but adobe's still the one that supports the greatest amount of pdf features | 23:02 |
| zePh7r | can't browse some pdfs on okular for example | 23:02 |
| BluesKaj | zePh7r, what about acroread | 23:04 |
| zePh7r | isn't that the name of older versions of adobe reader? | 23:05 |
| BluesKaj | zePh7r, i see both in synaptic | 23:06 |
| zePh7r | damn, that's why I couldn't find the en version! It was under a different branding | 23:06 |
| nyavuz | hi all , i am use wrong command for update kde 4.5 , i did not use dist-upgrade command, now can i do re update with dist-upgrade :) and pls accept my apologized for my bad english, | 23:55 |
