ana_ | I googled it but nothing is clear to me...8-( | 01:28 |
James147 | ana_: what do you mean by 'not available'? | 01:28 |
ana_ | dolphin says it doesn't exist | 01:29 |
paulo_ | dolphin? | 01:29 |
ana_ | the latin caracter is replaced by a "?" | 01:29 |
ana_ | yes the file manager | 01:30 |
James147 | ana_: not sure how to get dolphin to reconise them, but you could rename them in a terminal replacing the troublesome charater with a ? | 01:34 |
James147 | ( ? matches any single character in bash ) | 01:34 |
ana_ | I guess that's a solution but... | 01:35 |
James147 | ana_: afraid I dont know of another way... although I dont have much experience with it so there could be... | 01:35 |

Neurotrophin | is there a speech recognition app for kubuntu? | 02:31 |
well_laid_lawn | Neurotrophin: there's a search function in kpackagekit - I never bother with speech stuff :] | 02:37 |
well_laid_lawn | or apt-cache search speech | 02:37 |
Neurotrophin | yes.. I also did google searches.. apt-cache search does show some dev libs for speech recognition. kpackagekit shows all speech synthesis stuff.. | 02:41 |
Neurotrophin | and julius | 02:45 |
James147 | Neurotrophin: jovie is the text to speech system for kde... never got it to work very well though :( | 02:50 |

lucidfox | Is it possible with QtCurve to make Qt and GTK applications use the same file dialogs (not important if it's the Qt and GTK one, just that they look the same)? | 04:26 |
dasKreech | lucidfox: are you using GDM? | 04:44 |
lucidfox | Yes... Do KDE shutdown options only work with KDM? | 04:44 |
dasKreech | Yes | 04:47 |
dasKreech | It's a long long long annoyance of mine | 04:47 |
dasKreech | GDM will only allow Gnome as passthrough to shutdown the computer | 04:47 |
dasKreech | all other Environments can only logoff | 04:48 |
dasKreech | Similar with KDM | 04:48 |
dasKreech | XDM i think will allow either to shutdown but it's ugly enough that you won't turn back on the computer :( | 04:48 |
jmichaelx | how does one shut down with xdm? i have not seen that it even gives the option | 04:50 |
jmichaelx | i have a server vmon which i installed icewm and xdm, but to shutdown i just use 'halt' | 04:51 |
dasKreech | Actaully no You are right | 04:52 |

noaXess | how can i fix my dolphin hang problem? sometimes if i drag and drop or mark anything in dolphin, dolphin stops working fpr eg. 1 minute.. | 09:18 |
frogonwheels | cjae: when you plug it in, it should appear in your system tray 'last plugged in' - or open dolphin and it should be on the lhs | 09:19 |
cjae | frogonwheels: thats what I thought | 09:20 |
cjae | but its not | 09:20 |
horseatingweeds | hello? | 09:20 |

frogonwheels | cjae: are you talking a standard usb thumb drive? | 09:26 |
cjae | frogonwheels: floppy usb drive | 09:28 |
frogonwheels | cjae: probably needs some drivers :( | 09:29 |
frogonwheels | cjae: but that's rather surprising | 09:31 |
frogonwheels | cjae: presumably you've tried different ports? | 09:31 |
cjae | no but was just using a usb thumb drive on it, it tried accessing the disc thou | 09:32 |
frogonwheels | cjae: hmm.. it should show up in lsusb regardless. | 09:32 |
frogonwheels | cjae: i'm pretty sure. | 09:33 |

sobczyk | I thought upgrade to maverick will be good idea since it should be RC now, but fglrx is not building, radeon crashes the X server and vesa somehow does not want to work, I wonder how many more obstacles is there... | 12:26 |
well_laid_lawn | you could ask in #ubuntu+1 :] | 12:27 |

Rapp | i have got a static desktop Kubuntu machine. how can i make the networkmanager settings apply to the whole system? i need the wifi connection even when i am NOT logged in. | 13:06 |

Rapp | no one? | 13:07 |
well_laid_lawn | the only thing I know about wireless is you use whatever will get it working Rapp | 13:08 |
Rapp | well it IS working. but obviously only when i am logged in, since it is using networkmanager and kwallet. | 13:10 |
tish_ | hello | 13:10 |

tish_ | how can i put kmail in the system tray? | 13:10 |
tish_ | and launch it when kde starts ? | 13:11 |
zegenie | tish_: launch kmail, click settings -> configure kmail | 13:11 |
zegenie | under "appearance" there is a "system tray" tab | 13:11 |
zegenie | click "Enable system tray icon" and "Always show ..." | 13:12 |
tish_ | thx | 13:12 |
zegenie | to always start kmail - are you running kde 4.5? | 13:12 |
sobczyk | is there a reason why radeon driver allows max 1680x1680 resolution? | 13:12 |
zegenie | if so, open up system settings (menu -> system settings, or alt+f2 -> "systemsettings") and go to "Startup and shutdown" | 13:13 |
zegenie | there is an "Autostart" section there | 13:13 |
zegenie | click | 13:13 |
zegenie | stupid enter key | 13:13 |
zegenie | click "Add program" and type in "kmail" or navigate to kmail in the tree list (under internet) | 13:14 |
zegenie | press enter and "ok" in the dialog that pops up | 13:14 |

James147 | Kiranos: in maverick the netbook and desktop iso are being merged, and which is used will be auto detected... not sure if it warns the user how to switch though | 15:18 |
Kiranos | James147, ok maybe its not yet implemented correctly, I'm using the beta | 15:20 |
Kiranos | even after I choose netbook as sobczyk said, after a reboot I'm back at desktop plasma instead of netbook I just set | 15:21 |
James147 | Kiranos: your on maverick? ... the netbook and desktop where both installed on my netbook when I tested it | 15:21 |
Kiranos | James147, yes I'm on maverick, I was not allowed to choose desktop envirment at installation so I installed netbook-launcher, kubuntu-netbook etc but did not get to choose which one I want to use | 15:23 |
James147 | Kiranos: the installer dosent let you chose... but expect you to change it after if it got it wrong | 15:24 |
James147 | Kiranos: netbook-launcher? dont think thats part of the kde | 15:25 |
James147 | Kiranos: although the plasma-netbook should ahve been installed... and you should be able to change it at System settings > Workspace (which should stick after relogging) | 15:26 |
Kiranos | James147, yes it works I could change it there | 15:26 |
James147 | Kiranos: if its not then test a new user | 15:26 |
Kiranos | but nothing in the system said I should go there after I instelled netbook, its kinda bad for new users to think they will automatically understand that you must change that | 15:27 |
Kiranos | install and it should ask what you want to do, keep default or change to newly installed netbook workspace | 15:27 |
James147 | Kiranos: Its ment to auto detect to keep the choices in the installer down (an extra option would confuse most new users) | 15:28 |
James147 | (or at least thats what I think) | 15:29 |
James147 | Kiranos: although there might be something that can be done to hint the user to the options... although I dont know how.. | 15:31 |
BajK | anyone encountered that weird thing in chromium that every second youtube video ujses html5? So I start a video, e.g. Part 1, it is html5 and runs nicely (because html5 video is sooo much better than flash video), then I click on that recomend video section on part 2, those are then played in flash (which sucks) and then part 3 is html5 again | 15:33 |

* James147 is glad its finally happenening | 15:34 | |

BajK | it is there for ages | 15:35 |
BajK | you can switch | 15:35 |
* James147 dosent really go on youtube... | 15:35 | |
BajK | and now in fullscreen the progress slider automatically hides | 15:35 |
James147 | :D | 15:35 |
BajK | and html5 is so much better when watching videos on fullscreen | 15:35 |
sobczyk | maybe not every video supports html5 | 15:35 |
BajK | no | 15:35 |
BajK | but many | 15:35 |
BajK | because in flash, if you click anywhere else than the video is restored to normal size.. | 15:36 |
James147 | BajK: its restored when flash losses focus (dam anoying when you have focus follow mouse on) | 15:36 |
BajK | James147: yes. they recall it a "security feature" (i read that somewhere) but i call it "sucks ass" :D | 15:37 |

BluesKaj | well, have some errands to do etc,.... BBL | 17:52 |
Pici | Backglass: Do you need th process names, or just the PIDs? | 17:52 |
IdleOne | Pici: I am curious to know how that would done re: Backglass' question | 18:01 |
IdleOne | but with both process name and PID | 18:01 |
IdleOne | if you have the command handy :) | 18:01 |
DarthFrog | ps aux | cut -b 66- Will get you the processes. But they're a dog's breakfast to parse. :-( | 18:04 |
Pici | IdleOne: I suggested pgrep -l '^g' in PM, but he wanted to use ps, grep and cut instead. | 18:05 |
IdleOne | the ^ means what ? | 18:05 |
IdleOne | begins with? | 18:05 |
Pici | yes | 18:06 |
Pici | Its regex syntax. | 18:06 |
ScottyK | when upgrading distros (9.10 to 10.04 for example), is it better to wipe the HD then install, or is the upgrade process stable? When it is a good idea to wipe and install? | 18:06 |
IdleOne | nice | 18:06 |
IdleOne | thank you | 18:06 |
DarthFrog | ScottyK: That's not an easy question to answer. | 18:07 |
IdleOne | So if I read that right, the command says "grep process and list all the begin with g" | 18:07 |
Backglass | I use | 18:07 |
Backglass | for example | 18:08 |
Backglass | to parse with cute for example | 18:08 |
DarthFrog | ScottyK: Which ever way you choose, it's best to have a backup of your /home directory before you start. | 18:08 |
michiel_ | hello | 18:08 |

Guest23235 | I need to buy a new videocard for my parents PC, who run Kubuntu | 18:09 |
ScottyK | darth - thanks! All the user important info sits in /home? | 18:09 |
Guest23235 | the old one was a Nvidia 7600 GT | 18:09 |
DarthFrog | ScottyK: Personally, I normally wipe and install when I feel that's less work than cleaning out accumulated cruft. | 18:09 |
Guest23235 | but now I'm trying an ATI, which is temporary | 18:09 |
Guest23235 | now I notice, that the nvidia was slowing down Kubuntu a lot, even with properitairy drivers | 18:10 |
akssps011 | How to stop any installation going in background ? | 18:10 |
Guest23235 | now I can chose between Nvidia and ATI | 18:10 |
DarthFrog | ScottyK: Other considerations might be: if your root partition is too small and you wish to enlarge it. If your system has been compromised. If you're upgrading from more than one release back. | 18:10 |
Guest23235 | if you look between the original drivers, which works currently the best with Lucid? | 18:10 |
Guest23235 | because in the years it's always a fight between ATI and Nvidia | 18:11 |
akssps011 | I am trying to install a plugin in my eclipse installation but it says : "waiting for background process to finish" | 18:11 |
ScottyK | darth - that's a good idea. I'm dualbooting and I made the kubuntu side smaller than I wanted. fragging it gives me the chance to resize it. | 18:11 |
Guest23235 | but because of the recent changes from ATI's site, I'm currently not sure which I should choose | 18:11 |
DarthFrog | Guest23235: Don't bother with the drivers from the ATI site. Use the fglrx drivers in the Kubuntu repos. | 18:13 |
Guest23235 | DarthFrog, are they good enough for HD video and basic "gaming"? | 18:13 |
DarthFrog | Guest23235: I have an ATI 5770 card and the ATI drivers work just tickety-boo. | 18:13 |
DarthFrog | Guest23235: Yes. And by staying with in the Kubuntu repos, they'll be upgraded properly when new ones are released. | 18:14 |
DarthFrog | Guest23235: They are drivers provided by ATI and have been "ubuntu-fied". :-) | 18:15 |
Guest23235 | ah, so they are almost the same as from the ATI site? | 18:15 |
Guest23235 | or are there differences in support? | 18:15 |
Guest23235 | because on this system by brother plays TrackMania and PES 2010 on WINE | 18:15 |
DarthFrog | Guest23235: Correct. They won't be the latest and greatest flavour of the month but they are proprietary ATI drives. | 18:16 |
DarthFrog | drivers. | 18:16 |
Guest23235 | ah ok, well if those work ok, even with HD video, I can chose ATI safely | 18:16 |
DarthFrog | Guest23235: Make sure you're installing the fglrx drivers and not the radeonhd drivers, though. | 18:17 |
Guest23235 | the nvidia card couldn't handle compiz quiet well, and that slows a lot down | 18:17 |
ares_ | Guys who can help me ? :) | 18:17 |
ares_ | I have problem with wine | 18:17 |
DarthFrog | ares_: Stop drinking? <grinning, ducking and running> | 18:17 |
ares_ | epic.. | 18:17 |
Guest23235 | DarthFrog, ah ok, I shall take a note of that. I'm very advanced with Linux so I know what I'm doing, although currently no knowledge about Graphics Cards ;) | 18:18 |
ares_ | Why wine not work for me ? I'm using Kubuntu | 18:19 |
Guest23235 | ares_, WINE does work for me | 18:19 |
Guest23235 | ares_, so it should work correctly | 18:20 |
ares_ | but why for me it don't work :) | 18:20 |
Guest23235 | ares_, what doesn't work | 18:20 |
Guest23235 | ares_, running EXE files? | 18:20 |
ares_ | wine | 18:20 |
ares_ | YEAH | 18:20 |
DarthFrog | ares_: And how is anyone supposed to help you with that utter lack of information? | 18:20 |
ares_ | no error | 18:20 |
Guest23235 | I mean what part of WINE doesn't work | 18:20 |
Guest23235 | ares_, running lucid? | 18:21 |
ares_ | Sorry I not understand :( I'm not english man :/ | 18:21 |
DarthFrog | ares_: What is your native language? | 18:22 |
rodolfo | Hi, all... I have instale kubuntu 10.10 in my notebook, and it have a Broadcom wireless card (BCM4313). I instaled the broadcom driver, and bluetooth works fine, but wireless dont find any network | 18:22 |
DarthFrog | rodolfo: Try the wl driver. | 18:22 |
rodolfo | DarthFrog: tkx, I will try it ^^ | 18:23 |
rodolfo | DarthFrog: how do i install it? | 18:25 |
ares_ | So what I can do for wine ? :( | 18:26 |
Guest23235 | ares_: can you aptitude -y purge wine wine-gecko | 18:27 |
ares_ | First thing where I cna get good wine | 18:28 |
DarthFrog | ares_: You can ask for help in Italian in #ubuntu-it. | 18:28 |
ares_ | I need Lithuanian :D | 18:28 |
Guest23235 | ares_: can you use the commandline? | 18:29 |
ares_ | Yes | 18:29 |
Guest23235 | ares_, use these commands on the commandline: http://pastie.org/1174931 | 18:30 |
Guest23235 | to install WINE | 18:30 |
DarthFrog | Guest23235: It should be wine1.3 for the install command. | 18:30 |
Guest23235 | winecfg should be runned after wine is installed as normal user (not as root) | 18:30 |
Guest23235 | DarthFrog, wine is a virtual package right? | 18:31 |
Guest23235 | DarthFrog, or in Lucid not anymore? | 18:31 |
DarthFrog | Yes, but it'll install wine1.2 | 18:31 |
ares_ | FIRST WHERE I CAN GET Wine I reinstalled Kubuntu before 10 minutes | 18:31 |
Guest23235 | ares_, reopen this link: http://pastie.org/1174931 | 18:32 |
DarthFrog | ares_: Guest23235 just told you how. | 18:32 |

keldrona | I need help! I can't find the configure file for a tar.bz2. I don't know hot to install it. This is the message I get:bash: ./configure: No such file or directory | 19:11 |
Torch | keldrona: what is it and where did you download it? | 19:12 |
bulldog98 | keldrona: maybe it’s cmake based or qmake based? | 19:13 |
keldrona | Torch is a Flash editor. the name of the package is f4l-0.2.1.tar.bz2 | 19:13 |

BajK | Does the nvidia ion support desktop compositing? | 19:18 |
terran4000 | Hey all. I have a problem with 10.4 and my ATI HD video card. It works and all, but each time I log into my account I have to reload the compositing stuff (ie, change a setting in desktop effects, save, wait for screen to turn black and then on again), and if I don't Xorg will crash if I do anything like minimize and then un-minizime a window. Any ideas? | 19:30 |
illunatic | terran4000: i don't know, but maybe set it to save each session? | 19:38 |
terran4000 | illunatic: thanks for the suggestion, though that is not related to a driver/Xorg issue in Kubuntu :) | 19:40 |
illunatic | xD | 19:40 |
illunatic | wasn't sure if it would keep you from reconfiguring | 19:40 |
illunatic | is this with kde4.5 or w/e? | 19:41 |
terran4000 | hmm | 19:44 |
terran4000 | KDE 4.5.1 | 19:44 |
terran4000 | I'm thinking of going back to fluxbox and see if the problem persists there. Then again ... I have no clue how to enable pretty effects and eye candy in fluxbox. Hell, if I go to fluxbox I might as well go old school and use a larger terminal :) | 19:45 |
terran4000 | Speaking of window manager ... does anyone know how to install ubuntu stuff from kubuntu? Was it just: sudo apt-get install gnome-desktop ? | 19:47 |
rodolfo_ | I have instale kubuntu 10.10 in my notebook, and it have a Broadcom wireless & bluetooth card (BCM4313). bluetooth works fine, but wireless dont find network "/ can sameone help me? | 19:47 |

terran4000 | rodolfo_: awesome. thanks. | 19:51 |
