| k4ever | hi all. i was using gnome for some time. now i'm back to kde. i like the antinspect xscreensaver. i have kscreensaver-xsavers installed, but it does not show all of the xscreensavers (to included antinspect). is there a way to get kscreensaver to recognized this screensaver? | 01:14 |
| cmagina | k4ever: I might have an answer for you in just a second | 01:28 |
| k4ever | ok | 01:28 |
| cmagina | k4ever: The antinspect screensaver is part of the kscreensaver-xsavers-extra package, however even after installing it I am not able to see any of those new screensavers. I'm very familiar with the kscreensaver bits, but I will see what I can do. | 01:32 |
| cmagina | I'm not very... | 01:32 |
| cmagina | familiar that is | 01:33 |
| k4ever | ok, i appreciate your help | 01:33 |

| k4ever | also is there a way to show video thumbnails in dolphin? | 01:50 |
| cmagina | install kffmpegthumbnailer | 01:51 |
| cmagina | And then be sure to enable it in dolphins settings | 01:51 |
| cmagina | There must be a list stored somewhere containing all of the available screensavers, but I have been unable to find it thus far. | 01:52 |
| k4ever | thanks, installing now | 01:53 |
| k4ever | cmagina: thanks! the plugin works great | 01:56 |
| cmagina | k4ever: Good to hear it. You might want to submit a bug on the screensaver issue. It seems the kscreensaver-xsavers-extra package pulls in the other screensavers but does not get KDE to see them. | 01:57 |

| sushilcha | does anyone have idea about ssh... that if a GUI application be run on remote computer over ssh ? | 10:31 |
| well_laid_lawn | you can use vnc over ssh - it's in the man page and | 10:32 |
| well_laid_lawn | !vnc | 10:32 |
| ubottu | VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely. It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX | 10:32 |

| sushilcha | well_laid_lawn: btw, what i actually wanted to do was.. run ktorrent whenever i want on remote computer and shutdown my own computer | 10:34 |
| well_laid_lawn | why not use a cli torrent client like rtorrent? | 10:34 |
| well_laid_lawn | !info rtorrent | 10:34 |
| ubottu | rtorrent (source: rtorrent): ncurses BitTorrent client based on LibTorrent from rakshasa. In component universe, is extra. Version 0.8.6-1 (lucid), package size 397 kB, installed size 1308 kB | 10:34 |
| sushilcha | i know ktorrent can be controlled by web | 10:34 |
| well_laid_lawn | k | 10:35 |
| sushilcha | well_laid_lawn: but to control it via web, at first it shud be running :) | 10:35 |
| sushilcha | rtorrent probably doesn't have all the features like ktorrent... however let me explore about it.. thanx for suggestion | 10:36 |
| rork | sushilcha: you can start gui applications from the commandline by just typing their name, you may have to have some X-server running though | 10:37 |
| rork | and many kde programs can/could be controlled from the commandline with dcop | 10:37 |
| sushilcha | rork: with simple ssh it wudnt run | 10:37 |
| sushilcha | rork: ktorrent requires Xserver.. and of course Xserver is running in remote computer | 10:38 |
| sushilcha | but if i do ssh -X .. then Xserver from mycomputer is gonna be used.. in that case.. if i shutdown my computer the application is gonna exit as well | 10:39 |
| well_laid_lawn | try x11vnc - it can use the root desktop | 10:39 |
| well_laid_lawn | I think rtorrent with a web gui would be what you're after | 10:40 |
| sushilcha | yes that is a solution for what i seek | 10:40 |
| sushilcha | but lets look beyond torrent... | 10:41 |
| sushilcha | just if we can launch any application requiring Xserver in remote computer itself :) | 10:41 |
| well_laid_lawn | try x11vnc - it can use the root desktop | 10:43 |
| sushilcha | well_laid_lawn: ok.. but what if i shutdown my computer? will the program continue to run.. anyway i'll try to explore that myself too :) | 10:44 |
| well_laid_lawn | since it uses the root desktop it doesn't matter what any other comps do when you reconnect it will show the same root desktop | 10:45 |

| natman | my mistake ment kubuntu sorry | 13:53 |
| samuel_ | then yeah natman :) | 13:53 |
| natman | try system settings->appearence->color->get new schemes | 13:54 |
| samuel_ | natman: but this will add my a color scheme ... ? | 13:55 |
| samuel_ | yap ... :( | 13:56 |

| samuel_ | but I don't have the Oxygen Style :( natman | 13:57 |
| natman | samuel_: mmm seems weird, not sure what command to use, but could sudo apt-get install oxygen or KpackageKit help get back oxygen? | 13:58 |
| samuel_ | E: Couldn't find package KpackageKit | 14:00 |

| samuel_ | :( | 14:00 |

| samuel_ | oaky I have the kpackagekit | 14:02 |
| natman | phew | 14:02 |
| natman | try this command in terminal | 14:03 |
| samuel_ | but I can't find the oxygen package | 14:03 |
| natman | amm ok | 14:03 |
| natman | when i go to termainl ( eg " konsole" ) and search i get the following | 14:03 |
| natman | natman@natman-laptop:~$ sudo apt-get install oxygen | 14:03 |
| natman | oxygencursors oxygen-cursor-theme oxygen-cursor-theme-extra oxygen-icon-theme oxygen-icon-theme-complete | 14:03 |
| natman | the names under are all the availble packages | 14:04 |
| natman | if i was you i would just get them all and see what happens, it cant hurt- i think | 14:04 |
| samuel_ | okay let's try :) | 14:04 |
| samuel_ | E: Package oxygencursors has no installation candidate | 14:05 |
| samuel_ | :( | 14:05 |
| samuel_ | thank natman | 14:05 |
| natman | samuel_: my mistake | 14:05 |
| wea0 | samuel_: Do you have the package kubuntu-desktop installed? | 14:05 |
| natman | try this | 14:06 |
| natman | sudo apt-get install oxygen-cursor-theme oxygen-cursor-theme-extra oxygen-icon-theme oxygen-icon-theme-complete | 14:06 |
| samuel_ | wea0: how do i check ? | 14:06 |
| natman | samuel_: if you have Kubuntu you have the desktop im sure unless you have done a lot of messing around | 14:07 |
| wea0 | samuel_: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop | 14:07 |
| wea0 | If you upgraded to kde4.5 it might have been removed | 14:07 |
| samuel_ | :| it seams that I have missing packges on the kubbuntu-desktop .... | 14:08 |
| natman | samuel_: ok seems like the wea0 was correct | 14:09 |
| samuel_ | thanks wea0 and natman, let;s check if it will fix the problem | 14:09 |
| natman | good luck samuel_ | 14:09 |
| samuel_ | okay, it didn't ... :( | 14:10 |
| samuel_ | Grrr.... | 14:10 |
| samuel_ | I will try to restart my X | 14:11 |

| natman | samuel_: afraid this problem is above me then:( | 14:15 |
| samuel_ | how can I find other styles on Software Manager ? | 14:15 |
| === maco2 is now known as maco | ||
| wea0 | samuel_: What you could try is "sudo apt-get --reinstall install kdebase-runtime" | 14:20 |
| samuel_ | wea0: lets try :) | 14:21 |
| samuel_ | for now my KDE look like hell | 14:22 |
| wea0 | Umh, ... before or after you ran that command? | 14:26 |
| alvin | Try $ sudo aptitude install kubuntu-desktop && sudo aptitude install | 14:29 |
| samuel_ | wea0: befor, the reinstall for kdebase didn't help, but I found this package on the apt-get | 14:30 |
| samuel_ | kdeartwork | 14:30 |
| samuel_ | I'm trying to install it, and I will see if it helped :) | 14:31 |
| wea0 | That will probably give you more styles like phase, but not oxygen. | 14:34 |
| === e-jat is now known as ejat | ||
| samuel_ | wea0: didn't give any styles :( | 14:39 |
| samuel_ | but know I see that I have updates that are kept back | 14:40 |
| samuel_ | how do I force install them ? | 14:40 |
| wea0 | urgh | 14:40 |
| wea0 | sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 14:40 |
| samuel_ | :S | 14:41 |
| samuel_ | but I allready use the latest Kubuntu 10.4 | 14:41 |
| samuel_ | ... | 14:41 |
| samuel_ | that is so odd ! | 14:41 |
| wea0 | No it's not. dist-upgrade doesn't mean you are updated to a new distribution. | 14:44 |
| wea0 | "dist-upgrade in addition to performing the function of upgrade,also intelligently handles changing dependencies with new ver-sions of packages" | 14:44 |
| wea0 | I gotta go afk now. But if you want this to work you need to make sure that you have the latest versions of kubuntu-desktop, kdebase-runtime and kdebase-runtime-data installed. | 14:47 |

| alvin | samuel_: if 'aptitude install' lists things as [not installed], it's generally a good idea to remove them. (e.g. $ sudo aptitude purge freespacenotifier) | 14:48 |

| jimmy51_ | alvin: i've found it's the drive that is her /home. i'm running fsck /dev/sdb5 right now. | 15:40 |
| alvin | jimmy51_: You shouldn't be dropped in a maintenance shell for that. fsck should run automatically. | 15:41 |
| jimmy51_ | alvin: fsck /dev/sdb5 is asking my to hit (y) about every 2 minutes. Error reading block 12384839whatever. ignore? (y) rewrite (y). should i cancel and rerun with some switch to automatically do it? | 15:51 |

| Roasted | When is Kubuntu getting pulse audio or the software center? | 19:02 |
| maco | 10.10 has pulse | 19:02 |
| maco | the software center is gtk though so it wont be included unless someone makes a qt lookalike | 19:02 |
| maco | i find it more likely that kpackagekit just gets fixed up | 19:02 |
| Roasted | itd be nice to have that. kpackagekit... sucks. | 19:03 |
| bng007 | I like how software center list your ppa and other sources on the left | 19:04 |
| Roasted | yeah | 19:05 |
| Roasted | I dig kde, but MAN there are some things that just 'make sense' in gnome too. | 19:05 |
| Roasted | well, maybe not so much gnome, but ubuntu. | 19:05 |
| Roasted | kde is fun to tinker around with though. | 19:05 |
| bng007 | i agree, the software center in ubuntu is just two clicks away for example | 19:06 |
| bng007 | i used ubuntu for a test-drive for few months recently, I just envy Canonical is investing in gnome instead of kde :) | 19:07 |
| bng007 | i'm back in kde, the window compositing is much better for example | 19:09 |
| bng007 | one can feel and see there is some designer guidance behind the ubuntu. I just wish KDE was more consistent as well | 19:11 |
| Peace- | bng007: bah | 19:20 |
| ohzie | Hey, can I get workspaces on the top and bottom 'caps' of the cube when I use compiz? I'm using kubuntu on mostly vanilla Lucid Lynx install. | 19:24 |
| well_laid_lawn | !compiz | 19:25 |
| ubottu | Compiz (compositing window manager), for a howto see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager and more help #compiz | 19:25 |
| well_laid_lawn | ohzie: there's #compiz where someone would surely know that :] | 19:25 |
| ohzie | well_laid_lawn, Just to verify, KDE's compositing is compiz right? | 19:27 |
| well_laid_lawn | ohzie: I'm not sure - I've never bothered with it here | 19:28 |
| well_laid_lawn | I think it is just kwin... | 19:28 |
| Roasted | bng007, part of the reason Im using kde for a while is because gnome is the one seeming to be inconsistent for me. Not that it's bad, but sometimes it just acts weird, which is strange since gnome was always the more stable one for me in the past. | 19:29 |
| Scunizi | Is upgrading to 4.5 recommended or not recommended on a production machine? | 19:33 |

| bng007 | Scunizi: but maybe I'm just hard on it | 19:34 |
| Scunizi | bng007: that's what I was thinking but glad to have the conformation.. with 10.04 being an LTS (I think on Kubuntu) will it be available as backports or a straight upgrade when it settles down? | 19:35 |
| bng007 | Scunizi: not sure how this works | 19:35 |
| 52AAB20YH | Scunzi: it is available on backports now | 19:36 |
| Scunizi | bng007: PPA currently I think.. reviews are good .. but.. like you say buggy is not what I want | 19:36 |
| Scunizi | 52AAB20YH: thanks.. if you're running 4.5 how's your experience? | 19:36 |
| 52AAB20YH | Scunzi: it runs fine on my test bed | 19:37 |
| Scunizi | 52AAB20YH: was it a 10.04 install with the upgrade on top? | 19:37 |
| 52AAB20YH | Scunzi: had it up several weeks now | 19:37 |
| 52AAB20YH | Scunzi: yes | 19:37 |
| Scunizi | 52AAB20YH: thanks | 19:38 |
| 52AAB20YH | Scunzi: one crash, but am pretty sure that was an x screen saver | 19:38 |
| bng007 | Scunizi: I have dolphin crashing and the a small window with X icon that I cannot close else it crashes my plasma. no other problems | 19:38 |
| 52AAB20YH | Scunzi: transitition was smooth | 19:39 |

| bng007 | Scunizi: the new notification plasmoid is not really polished, but it works - still not very user friendly | 19:40 |

| terran4000 | Hey. Is there a way to change an icon of a single link/shortcut? | 20:12 |
| v3nd3tta`` | you mean a desktop shortcut? | 20:12 |
| terran4000 | yup | 20:13 |
| v3nd3tta`` | right click and then properties | 20:13 |
| v3nd3tta`` | or mark it and then alt+enter :P | 20:13 |
| v3nd3tta`` | and then there click on the symbol left | 20:14 |
| v3nd3tta`` | you can use your own files | 20:14 |
| terran4000 | That would work, but this isn't a .desktop file | 20:14 |
| v3nd3tta`` | what then? | 20:14 |
| terran4000 | Dunno ... I clicked that dragged a executable to the desktop folder widget, selected make shortcut here. | 20:15 |
| v3nd3tta`` | does it have the executable symbol? | 20:15 |
| terran4000 | er | 20:15 |
| terran4000 | "Link here" | 20:15 |
| terran4000 | yes it does. | 20:15 |
| v3nd3tta`` | then there left should be a box where you should select your icon | 20:16 |
| terran4000 | There doesn't happen to be a "make a actual shortcut" button is there which will make a handy dandy .desktop file? | 20:16 |
| === pixel__ is now known as AntonioRosales | ||
| v3nd3tta`` | uhm | 20:16 |
| terran4000 | The icon is there but it's not selectable/clickable. | 20:17 |
| v3nd3tta`` | right click -> new -> link to <executable> | 20:17 |
| v3nd3tta`` | or what do you mean? | 20:17 |
| v3nd3tta`` | that would produce a .desktop file | 20:18 |
| terran4000 | ok, I'll try the click->new->link to ... method. | 20:18 |
| v3nd3tta`` | i think it's the best one :) | 20:19 |
| v3nd3tta`` | yeah, i dradded "my" test executable to the desktop... you cannot modify it... | 20:19 |
| terran4000 | yeah ... | 20:20 |
| terran4000 | that really blows | 20:20 |
| v3nd3tta`` | right click is your friend :) | 20:20 |
| Surunveri | hmm it still didnt work | 20:20 |
| terran4000 | you're method works though. Thanks | 20:20 |
| Surunveri | as soon as i restarted dolphin the setting went back to default | 20:20 |
| Surunveri | =| | 20:20 |
| terran4000 | thanks v3nd3tta`` | 20:20 |
| Surunveri | or rather, when i restarted dolphin without root priviledges | 20:20 |
| v3nd3tta`` | no problem terran4000 | 20:20 |
| v3nd3tta`` | :) | 20:20 |

| zus | melissawm, i just now had to delete the belkin router i get a wifi signal from the list in edit connections and reconnect and click connect automatically for me to get it to work- where as when i switch to my gnome session i have no problems | 22:20 |
| melissawm | for me it's a wired connection, not wireless, and desktop, not laptop | 22:22 |
| zus | yeah i dont have a laptop, but i got a wireles usb i found and i tried it and it works, dunno who's signal but thank you whoever it is :) | 22:23 |
| zus | melissawm, try with the live disc if you can get on line with the live disc. i didnt get the network manager for kubuntu the first time i tried it | 22:24 |

| HERPADERP | Just out of curiosty, Does anyone have a laptop with linux running for gaming? | 22:32 |
| poseidon2010 | Well I like Kubuntu...... the interface is damn faster than Gnome | 22:33 |
| HERPADERP | Whenever i use ubuntu, its a bit faster than kubuntu. Probably due to less eye candy | 22:34 |
| tuxifier | poseidon2010: faster? I can't sign that - but kde is much more flexible | 22:34 |
| tuxifier | and prettier :P | 22:35 |
| tuxifier | and has no congo bong sound :P | 22:35 |
| tuxifier | anyone using qlandkarte gt on kde 4.5? | 22:35 |
| poseidon2010 | well... I have several VM here..... and with Gnome (Ubunutu) they were not roperly running..CPU was dying.... Memory was always loaded.... | 22:35 |
| poseidon2010 | But with KDE..... the CPU is fairly used and the memory as well | 22:36 |
| poseidon2010 | KDE(Kubuntu) | 22:36 |
| tuxifier | poseidon2010: which virtualization tool do you use? | 22:37 |
| poseidon2010 | VirtualBox | 22:37 |
| poseidon2010 | and now I am playing with Eucalyptus...... havent finished yet though with that | 22:38 |
| poseidon2010 | also another problem I found.... and I think is not related to GNOME or KDE... is the flahs-plugin | 22:38 |
| poseidon2010 | its crappy... and it kind of kills ur cpu.... | 22:38 |
| tuxifier | poseidon2010: 64bit? | 22:38 |
| poseidon2010 | yes 64 bit | 22:39 |
| tuxifier | yeah this is caused by the npviewer 64 to 32 bit flash wrapper | 22:39 |
| tuxifier | cause there is no native flash for 64 bit yet | 22:39 |
| tuxifier | thanks to adobe | 22:40 |
| poseidon2010 | sadly to say.... I have a VM with Windows.... to see Youtube Videos.... otherwise my machine will just dye.... Have in mind I have other VM running | 22:40 |
