[00:13] how do I disbale the blue shadow of the windows? [00:15] XunZi System Settings->Appearance->Windows->Shadows [00:16] XunZi: not sure where it is on kde 4.4, but inb 4.5: system settings > Window Decorations > Window Decorations > "Configure Decoration" button > Shadows > untick "active window glow" [00:21] hello [00:21] hi Neeraja [00:22] I would like to popup Application Launcher menu (KMenu) using dbus command how can I do it ? [00:23] Hi James147 [00:26] Neeraja: try asking in #kde if no one responds here, they are more likely to know :) [00:26] * James147 remembers someone else asking that a few days ago, but cant remember the answer... === kai_62656 is now known as BDC-kracker [00:45] that little icon in the upper-right corner of Kubuntu has (somehow) disappeared - how can I get it back? [00:50] in 4.4 I had it so that each workspace had a different wallpaper was was a it's own activity. In 4.5 this seems to not be the case. Only one wallpaper can be chosen for all my workspaces and the activities seem to not be related to the workspaces at all anymore. Is there a way to change it back? [00:50] well, the upgrade didn't go smoothly [00:51] *each workspace has its own wallpaper and was it's own activity [00:51] harolddong: click the cashew (the thing in the corner) and click activities [00:51] harolddong: should beable to select the activity for your current workspace doing that [00:52] avihay: what went wrong? [00:52] http://pastebin.com/tTbMpbs1 [00:52] It seemed to go pretty smooth for me so far. I've been running 4.5 since the beta. just now my desktop/workspace/activity settings are all changed [00:52] some conflicts with packages === jt|away is now known as jtheuer [00:53] how do I get back that icon that is in the upper-right corner after it disappearing? [00:54] james147> so instead of checking a box to make each workspace have its own activity, now I just go into the activity manager and click the acivity I want to choose for a certain workspace? Is that rght? [00:55] harolddong: not sure if the box is still there :) but it might be === jtheuer is now known as jt|away [00:59] avihay: looks like its a problem with qt and its update to 4.7 :S [00:59] now when I ask synaptic to upgrade it suggests something that includes removing packages [00:59] umm, suggestions? [01:00] avihay: the upgrade to kde 4.5 will remove packages ^^ what did you run to upgrade? [01:00] the usuall, add repository, mark all updates, upgrade [01:01] avihay: with what program/command? [01:01] maybe there was an active filter or something [01:01] synaptic [01:01] :S try running "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" that has worked for most people [01:01] dist-upgrade? [01:02] avihay: yes, and no it wont upgrade you to maverick :) it dosnt handel acrually upgrading your dirto version [01:02] (by its self) [01:03] avihay: or you can run "sudo aptitude full-upgrade" << its equlivent to dist-upgrade in apt-get [01:03] I remember reading about it. it's sort of a special dependency resolving mode? [01:05] avihay: it basically allows apt-get to install/remove packages that it needs to resolve dependencies [01:06] well, dist upgrade asked me to run apt-get -f install first [01:06] avihay: do that :) [01:07] avihay: that should attempt to fix dependency problems [01:08] yes, it fell on trying to overwrite '/usr/share/qt4/translations/qt_help_cs.qm', which is also in package libqtcore4 4:4.6.3-0ubuntu1 , and tried some more packages, [01:08] Errors were encountered while processing: /var/cache/apt/archives/libqt4-help_4%3a4.7.0~beta2-0ubuntu3~lucid1~ppa4_i386.deb [01:10] * James147 ponders if libqt4-help is actuallly needed [01:10] avihay: you can try removing it :) and trying the -f install again [01:12] actually, I've tried sudo apt-get dist-upgrade -f. it will fail because of the same file in two packages, but it is replaceing my system [01:12] I think [01:12] I had that problem this AM. aptitude -f install fixed it. [01:16] ok, ran synaptic, directed me to the broken packages section. seems that the 4 broken packages are kdebase-runtime-debug, kdevelop, libqt4-dev and libqt4-help. why do I get the feeling that all will be well if I remove kdevelop? [01:16] avihay: posibally... I remember there being some problems with that... thourgh they were fixed though [01:18] synaptic says the same. I'm gonna go ahead with it (actually marked kdebase-runtime-dbg for removal, and it marked kdevelop for removal and libqt4-help for upgrade [01:20] ok, that solved the current -f issue. gonna go with the dist-upgrade [01:22] avihay: after the upgrade quickly install kubuntu-desktop if it isnt already :) just in case [01:24] ok, another issue with kde-window-manager and kdebase-workspace-dev [01:24] trying to overwrite '/usr/lib/libksignalplotter.so', which is also in package libksignalplotter4 4:4.4.5-0ubuntu1~lucid1~ppa1 [01:28] wird thing with synaptic, when I asked to remove kdebase-workspace-dev, it wanted to remove kde-window-manager and kubuntu-desktop. when I asked to reinstall kde-window manager insted, it wanted to remove kdebase-workspace-dev, and make some other appropriate changes [01:30] avihay: I would remove em, continue the upgrade then install kubuntu-desktop again (DO NOT logout while they are removed or you wont have a desktop till they are reinstalled) [01:33] another collision between kmouth and kttsd [01:34] ahhg [01:39] well, it's over now [01:41] avihay: installed kubuntu-desktop again? [01:42] yes, thanks for the tip [01:44] well, here goes nothing === ep is now known as Guest62030 [01:51] good evening. i need some help to change the resolution of my ubuntu. does anyone here can help me? [01:51] good evening. i need some help to change the resolution of my ubuntu. does anyone here can help me?

[02:56] I've hit the right control, the green indicator arrow lights up like it's captured it, but the mouse icon stays grayed out and when I click [02:56] I get the same error message stating I need to capture it... Any help greatly appreciated. === ubuntu__ is now known as ott0matic [02:58] i'm running kubuntu off the cd and i tried a sudo apt-get upgrade but it said there's not enough space [02:58] is there a way to increase the space available without installing to my hd? [03:00] ott0, not an expert, but I believe you'd need a linux partition or have to set something up for read/write access in a certain folder [03:00] liveCD's are designed to show you a glimpse of what linux is going to be like without botching up your install of your current OS [03:01] I've read of people using USB keys to do their data storage/ap installations to while using livecd's, but couldn't begin to tell you how to do it. [03:02] does anybody know where the "separate activity for each desktop" or a similar setting is in 4.5? [03:03] Think I sorted my issue out and am not nearly knowledgable enough to help many, so, good evening and good luck. [03:05] hello, is there a webshots like program for Kubuntu? Found a few for gnome, but not for KDE. [03:10] what's webshots [03:10] program for windows, automatically cycles wallpaper for oyu [03:12] i think you can just make a stack of wallpapers to do that in kde [03:13] yes, put this program will change the background automatically at a set interval [03:16] ScottyK7: what i mean is you put a bunch of pictures in a folder an choose slideshow in the desktop settings [03:16] it automatically cycles them [03:20] ha! easier than I thought. Thanks for the info! [03:39] Is there any benefit to installing Kubuntu alone instead of installing it in Ubuntu?

[08:57] hey guys whats the best way to upgrade to kde 4.5 in kubuntu.. 1. install kubuntu fresh, add ppa repo, upgrade, then tweak away, add your fav apps [08:57] or install kubuntu, tweak away, add your apps, then add the repo and upgrade to 4.5? [08:58] what way offers stability and less possibility of problems in the longrun [08:58] binskipy: I bet there is no difference, unless there are changes to settings in some kde apps between 4.4 and 4.5 [08:59] so less work is option 1 [08:59] stability is wait for official support :) [08:59] are you using 4.5? [09:00] no I don't want to test something that big that is not in official repos [09:01] I need my ssytem up and running :) [09:01] right now im using Arch linux which is a rolling release, but.. kubuntu is more "comfy" to me, andso much more software, everyday things are less work to get working [09:02] though you don't get the edge software like in arch [09:02] yeah...but stability and "just works' is sometimes bettter then bleeding edge [09:02] even if it is officially supported in some distros while not in others [09:02] big software upgrades i mean [09:03] sobczyk: editing attachements on LP? remove or adding? [09:04] that's why I use kubuntu on laptop instead of gentoo or arch, though I can clearly see that it's not as well polished as ubuntu (gnome) [09:04] jussi: edit the description [09:04] though there is no button for deleting too [09:04] binskipy: sobczyk, try to keep it strictly support in here, if you want to just chat about arch or whatever, #kubuntu-offtopic :) [09:05] hey sobc.. i found a nice site with some tips to make kubuntu "nicer,smoother" and more "polished" [09:05] http://tinyurl.com/37f5jg3 [09:06] sobczyk: just add an additional comment.

[09:06] jussi: so is there a way to do it? I cant see any remove buttons for remove an attachment [09:06] sobczyk: I dont think so. [09:07] oops [09:07] i dont know how to do any of that in here [09:07] I should file a request then ^^ though I bet someone already discussed this [09:07] binskipy: just type the first few letters of the nick and hit tab.

[10:50] howlymowly: why don't you use kpackagekit instead? That's the default package manager in KDE [10:50] Mamarok: well.. I am a KDE-fan that' why i use kubuntu :) but kpackagekit is really aweful compared with kpackagekit imho ^^ [10:50] ahh lol.. i mean software-center [10:51] well, I don't like software-center at all, I use synaptic [10:51] * Mamarok doesn't use kkpackagekit [10:52] muon! :D :P [10:52] in answer to your question howlymowly, I would think so, but installing it would probably install half of gnome... [10:53] * howlymowly aptitude ftw!! [10:53] jussi: hmm... i guess that's also the problem [10:54] i just found out: running it as sudo works btw... [10:54] i guess that#s some permission problems than... maybe it has something to do with gnome-settings-daemon or similar stuff which I have not installed [10:54] gksudo I hope ;) [10:55] jussi: whats the problem when running it from konsole with sudo:)? [10:55] !gksudo [10:55] If you need to run graphical applications as root, use « gksudo », as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why) [10:55] howlymowly: ^^ [10:56] kk.. well.. that made my day :) lesson learned hehe [10:57] glad I could be helpful := [10:58] soooo... one more completly unrelated question: is it somehow possible to configure the qt-theme engine in kde? I think remembering, that this was possible under gnome... [10:59] Hello [10:59] howlymowly: what exactly are you trying to change?

[11:01] jussi: ah never mind.. i just found it.. [11:01] howlymowly: Im running 4.5, so it may be slightly different, but in system settings there is t..

I'd like to upgrade to a larger+faster disk by migrating the system partition to it (and making it bootable), and leaving the storage accessible as is (and the original system partition as backup, for now) [11:06] whoa... i really nee to mae my "system clean up sessions" more regular.. always so much cool new stuff in KDE :D [11:06] all references I've managed to read about in forums/google talk about cloning the whole disk and removing the old one, which is no good.

[11:11] jussi: jeez... my clean up session gets longer and longer... any idea how i can remove an application completly from "kde file associations"? [11:12] howlymowly: sorry...

[11:35] howlymowly: the what? [11:36] dolphin -> preferences -> services -> download new services [11:36] you have kde 4.5 right? [11:36] that should be there, then [11:37] yeah, it works === jt|away is now known as jtheuer [11:40] hmm.. that's bad...

[12:31] ayush: i am too from india, i can understand from your name [12:31] phoenix_: oh ok, thanks for the help [12:31] ayush: do you know the basics of kubuntu desktop [12:32] ayush: you welcome [12:33] hi, good morning [12:33] italomaia: good morning [12:33] ö/ [12:34] panther_: hi [12:34] i'm using kubuntu with a netbook here and youtube videos are soundless. Any one had this problem? Opera powered = ] [12:34] phoenix_: I'm a third year IT engineering student. I basically need linux because there is a whole lot of linux in our operating system course. We have to do a lot of C programming, shell scripting in linux. As of now, I only the little bit of shell commands that have been taught to us [12:34] italomaia: you have to increase the pcm level in your sound control [12:35] phoenix_ : i installed ubuntu first. but like KDE more than gnome. so i switched to kubuntu [12:35] ayush: when you get to lean linux, you will be excited [12:35] ayush: learn [12:36] ayush: its very easy and interesting [12:36] phoenix_: wow!!! Can't believe that was the problem! Big thanks man ö/ [12:36] italomaia: you are welcome [12:37] by the way, kubuntu runs smooth in my 1201n [12:37] ayush: kubuntu is like windows, there is no good tutorial for new ones, thats it [12:38] phoenix_: yes I plan on learning it. Anyways, can you tell me why this "network management disabled" problem occurred? [12:39] ayush: you end the "Knetworkmanager" process and start it again in console. when it starts it will print the error message in the console [12:40] the run dialog in kde-->alt+f2 [12:41] alright thanks phoenix_.

[13:08] italomaia: google chrome [13:09] uhhhh, nasty [13:10] try changing config of kubuntu [13:10] in font config, there's a option [13:10] about anti-alising [13:10] try messing around with it. Default is program specific, i think [13:15] italomaia: i tried that now, it didnt work [13:17] hummm [13:18] remove chrome and install opera! That will certainly fix it = D [13:18] you could try changing the default font for chrome too. [13:19] italomaia: tried that too [13:23] then i don't have nay more ideas : / [13:24] hi [13:27] http://pastebin.org/444819 <--- hey why do I get this when I try to apt-get dist-uprade, and how can I fix it? [13:40] Roey: did you add any new repositories to source.list [13:40] hrm yeah [13:41] Roey: disable that and try [13:41] but I edited the virtualbox stanzas in /var/lib/dpkg/status and /var/lib/dpkg/available [13:41] er now it seems to work [13:41] Roey: ok === mike is now known as Guest23784 === jtheuer is now known as jt|away === jt|away is now known as jtheuer === jtheuer is now known as jt|away === jt|away is now known as jtheuer [14:57] how do I get Twitter working with the µBlog widget? [15:05] ok, serious.. is the wubi for Kubuntu 10.04 broken? [15:06] coz i downloaded the disc and tried to install it and its downloading a torrent file of the ISO === root is now known as Guest55069 [15:35] Hi. [15:36] Question: (ubuntu Lucid with KDE4): When I mount vfat USB-sticks filenames are shown in ALL CAPITAL letters. What is the easiest way to fix that, thanks. [15:36] (I would prefer all lowercase) [15:39] Garp: try renaming the disc? [15:39] disc/usb stick [15:40] But i suspect the vFat dose not support lower case [15:41] /me goes off to see if it is... [15:41] :S [15:42] Nicekiwi9: Thanks for your help, vfat is just case insensitive. [15:42] Nicekiwi9: by hand, you can just -o shortname=lower [15:42] (it works) [15:42] sweet [15:42] Nicekiwi9: but whaich black magik is KDE doing when automounting? [15:42] Compositing is not supported on your system. [15:42] Required X extensions (XComposite and XDamage) are not available. [15:42] please help me [15:42] Garp: no idea sowy [15:43] Nicekiwi9: it shoudl use HAL, at least I think. Butu I tried to hack in HAL and no change [15:44] Garp: im just another annoied end user, waiting for only to be shunned continuously... sigh... its almost worth paying for commercial support [15:46] woot finally, 2 kubutnu downloads later wubi finally installed yay === twobitsp1ite is now known as twobitsprite [15:48] Garp, HAL is a last resort, at a lower level now than the kernel modules, they have been the default for the last couple OS versions === jtheuer is now known as jt|away [15:55] someone here that uses kdevelop ? [15:58] hello [15:59] hello [15:59] BluesKaj: so, do you know how it can be hacked easily? [15:59] I have the worst problem. [15:59] I Installed Kubuntu 32 [15:59] on a server by mistake [15:59] is there anyway to make Kubuntu 32 to see the 16gb of ram? [16:00] lol the thing is we spent 3 days installing the spftware we need to use for the company [16:00] but we need the system to see the 16gb of ram, re-installing to 64bit will make my boss and co-workers kill me :s [16:01] Garp, nope , think there are workarounds , but what is your HW prob anyway ? [16:02] someone + [16:04] BluesKaj: I prefer lowercases for filenames, for my camera. Like img_1234.jpg instead of IMG_1234.JPG [16:05] lnxkde, dunno if that's possible , think the max 32bit can use is 8g ram [16:05] BluesKaj: [16:05] thanks, then I am dead lol [16:05] then, time to re install [16:06] lnxkde: In any casde, a 32 bits system can only address (to the most) 4GB of RAM in a row [16:06] lnxkde, I'm not positive , perhaps you could do some research in the forums [16:06] yeah avery where says 4gb [16:06] lnxkde: There used to be fancy "bank" system to see more, but that's ridiculous now with 64bits addressing [16:07] lnxkde: 2^32 is 4G, that's why [16:07] lnxkde: In practice you even lose some more du to ROM and devices addressing [16:07] Inxkde: http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/ubuntu-linux-4gb-ram-limitation-solution/ [16:07] you probably want a kernel with PAE [16:08] LibertyZero: he wants to reinstall [16:08] lnxkde: I would be your boss, I wouldnt kill you for reinstall, but I woulddefinitly for putting a 32 bits OS on a 64 bits machines... [16:09] lol [16:09] (with no good reason) [16:09] have to gooo [16:09] see ya [16:09] the thing is that the server, took me 2 months to boot propertly because all the Harddrive we got where bad, so as soon we recived good harddrive I installed what I had in my desk lol [16:10] Does someone know how to set tab width/size on kdevelop ? [16:11] thanks guys LibertyZero BluesKaj and Garp I will be bakc later [16:20] lnxkde: Doesn't Kubuntu 32-bit see the 16GB? It has a pae kernel [16:20] Hi everybody. I'd like to install GNOME desktop with this command but I always have sound problems. Can you help me ? [16:21] sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop [16:21] * [16:21] rtK: sound problems in kde or gnome? [16:22] the both when I install it [16:22] rtK: What kind of sound problems? Why would they prevent you from installing GNOME? [16:22] I can't read any music with totem and amarok [16:23] There aren't any sound when i install uuntu desktop [16:23] But it installs OK? [16:23] Probably a pulseaudio problem [16:24] yeah it installs but with these problems === me is now known as Guest76042 [16:24] I have installed "kdelibs5-dbg" and "amarok-dbg" packages from backports PPA, but I still cannot get Amarok to give a traceback ("The debugger application is missing or could not be launched") [16:24] I always have to remove it to play music in KDE [16:25] rtK: Have you asked for help in #Ubuntu? They're the GNOMEs, not us. :-) === darkon_ is now known as RyRy-33 [16:26] DarthFrog Yeah in the french and english channel but they say it's KDE's problem... [16:26] rtK: BS. [16:26] BS ?? [16:27] Male bovine excrement. :-) [16:27] lol [16:28] If sound is working in KDE but not in GNOME, then the problem is in GNOME. I presume you are choosing a GNOME session from the login screen and are not trying to run GNOME apps in a KDE session? [16:29] rtK: or are you losing sound in both enviroments? [16:29] James147 in both [16:29] Totem amarok vlc dragonplayer doesn't work [16:30] rtK: Have you run the mixer to make sure your output channels/devices aren't muted? [16:30] DArthFrog I don't run any GNOME apps in KDE session [16:31] DarthFrog yes, I've already done it [16:31] rtK: There's no reason why you can't or shouldn't run GNOME apps under KDE. And _vice versa_. [16:31] DarthFrog: cant and dont are two different things [16:31] But chacun a son gout. [16:32] James147: Yes, I agree. But perhaps he's not aware of his choices. [16:33] Chacun a son goùt exactement but I just wanted to try GNOME =S [16:33] DarthFrog: just checking :) [16:33] alvin: i always thought that the pae kernel is only installed by the server editions and only if the installer detects more than 4 gig of ram. Are PAE kernels the standard nowadays in 32 bit Ubuntu? [16:34] LibertyZero: As far as I know, they are [16:35] rtK: Do you have sufficient space in another partition on your system that you could do a separate installation of Ubuntu? If so, and if sound works there, it sounds like a bug that should be reported. [16:35] alvin: oh, nice :-) Didn't know that [16:36] DarthFrog you mean installing Ubuntu in another partition to check where the problem comes from ? [16:37] LibertyZero: If you read the boot message log, you should be able to see what your kernel supports. [16:37] rtK: exactement. And if sound works there, try installing kubuntu-desktop in that system and see what happens. [16:38] LibertyZero: "dmesg | less" will tell you that. The 3rd line from the top tells me my kernel parameters. [16:38] DarthFrog, will I have Ubuntu in bootloader ? [16:39] with kubuntu and windows [16:39] rtK: Yes. [16:40] rtK: In the new install, Ubuntu will be the default, with Kubuntu and Windows appearing as other choices. [16:41] DarthFrog, ok I try it but what I can do if it doesn't work, of course after uninstalling Ubuntu ? [16:41] DarthFrog: I only have 64 bit Ubuntu now, the last time i installed a 32 bit ubuntu was maybe 2 years ago and the pae kernel wasn't the default back then. [16:41] rtK: You can realise the superiority of KDE and stay on the Right Side of The Force. :-) [16:42] LibertyZero: Oh, this isn't a current problem? Well then, in the words of the immortal Emily Litella, "Nevermind!" :-) [16:43] DarthFrog lol, même les Anglais ont de l'humour c'est bon à savor. Thanks, nice tip [16:43] hi, is there any way to change panel text colors ? [16:50] DarthFrog: It's something like "Someone knows something which I didn't know so I confirm it because that knowledge could eventually become handy in the future" :-) [16:51] LibertyZero: I understand ferpectly. [16:52] LibertyZero: Unfortunately the number of things that I know nothing about is increasing at an alarming rate! :-) [16:55] so, I've followed the instructions on the Kubuntu website to get KDE 4.5.0, and despite seeming to do everything correctly, I corrupted my system to the point that no window manager would start at all and all I got was a black command-line log-in screen [16:55] Hi all, I reported a bug against konqueror with webkit, and I've been told "It seems to be a distro problem. If you can poke [16:55] whomever is responsible to update the kwebkitpart package from extragear that [16:55] would be great. They should use the latest version for KDE >= 4.4." [16:55] first, is there a safe way to do this upgrade that I wasn't aware of, and second, will this upgrade ever be available through normal channels to make it more seamless? or do I have to wait for the next release of Kubuntu to get it? [16:56] Anyone knows how should I go about that? [16:59] ilya-x: try running: "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install -f" [16:59] what does the -f flag do? [17:00] ilya-x: "fix broken" [17:00] no no, it's too late, I already wiped my hard drive and reinstalled :-P [17:00] ahh :) [17:00] now I want to see if I can try getting KDE 4..5.0, but... in a safer manner [17:01] ilya-x: then it should work with a clean system... install the ppa then run "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" [17:01] Just trying UNE 10.10 [17:02] I don't like the new look [17:02] James147: I still have to add the PPA backports repository manually, I'm assuming? [17:02] I'm fairly new to Linux in general [17:03] ilya-x: yes "sudo add-apt-repository ppa:kubuntu-ppa/backports" will do that === jt|away is now known as jtheuer [17:03] hello, i have kubuntu 10.2. i can't hide files using a ".hidden" file as i used to do under ubuntu, any idea ? [17:04] The help app doesn't seem to be written for UNE as it mentions the top and bottom panels [17:04] mfraz74: UNE? and 10.10 support is in channel #ubuntu+1 [17:04] oops, thought i was in that channel sorry [17:05] I'd joined the channel in Quassel and it went to that channel, but it must've changed channels without me noticing [17:08] James147: I'm following your instructions, but out of curiosity... does this mean all my future package updates will basically be arriving through beta channels rather than final releases? is the software in that repository in beta state? [17:10] ilya-x: backports is for final products... the beta ppa is for beta stuff... not all packages will come through that ppa only the stuff that has a newer version then then in the offical ones... that should mostly be jsut kde stuff === jtheuer is now known as jt|away [17:32] does anyone know how to contact who's responsible to update the kwebkitpart package from extragear? [17:56] lelamal: I don't have idea, but if I were you I would try to ask in #kubuntu-devel, too [17:57] gio_gt: thank you, it's already something! [17:58] lelamal: you're welcome [18:01] is there a way to have the close, minimize and maximize buttons on the windows on the left side instead of the right side, like in Ubuntu? [18:03] * James147 thought they where on the right in ubuntu... [18:03] either way it is possible by changing the window decoration settings === Luukje is now known as Lew|Pizza [18:04] possibally need to chsnge the theme..

[18:46] my only problem is to make the network tab in dolphin to work properly, i have no problems with samba if i mount the shares trough fstab [18:47] anyways , thx for ya help [18:47] Badegakk: but have you set the password? [18:47] i mean you have to set samba user .... === jtheuer is now known as jt|away [18:48] I can browse the shares and see the files, but i cant open them [18:48] set the samba user [18:48] because like said in my blog... [18:48] Thanks for the helpful post, it worked like a charm on Kubuntu 9.10 64 bit. The confusing thing is that out-of-the-box you can get to public shares by typing the in the complete smb://frank/ but going to smb:/ in Dolphin shows an empty folder. The auto-discovery part requires creating a user.
