[10:02] kde4.5 that is [10:02] dunno if you were in #linux earlier when we were chatting, i used to use linux somewhat often, mostly gentoo, but not getting TOO deep into it. since my main PC game these days is EVE Online, my ONLY reason for using windows is gone, since EVE runs in *nix [10:03] moetunes: i'm running w/e the latest livedvd updates to [10:03] lemme check [10:03] I am never in #linux [10:03] any about menu in any app should tell [10:03] *nearly any app [10:04] and apparently 4.4.2 [10:04] k [10:04] so, step one, update KDE :P [10:04] no [10:04] not necessarily [10:05] it should be fine with 4.4 [10:05] well, generally good to be running the latest version, is it not? [10:05] latest is not always the best [10:05] fair enough [10:06] try in konsole compiz --replace if that is fine and the guide isn't working add it to autostarted apps maybe [10:07] or ask again in a bit when more folk are here - there might be someone that has done what you want [10:07] well that's a good sign, screen flickered, got an error when it tried to come online [10:07] the error was? [10:08] compiz (cube) - Warn: Failed to load slide: /usr/share/gdm/themes/Human/ubuntu.png [10:09] gonna try disabling all the compiz effects and then try again [10:09] I would look at installing ccsm [10:09] !ccsm [10:09] To enable advanced customization of desktop effects in Ubuntu: install 'compizconfig-settings-manager' or 'simple-ccsm'.

[11:12] hmm even i would want to know that [11:13] I sincerely hope in the final release they have multi touch enabled on kubuntu netbook [11:20] crazy question, what's the default entry in kubuntu 10.04's "autostart" section of system settings -> advanced?

Im trying to find a variant for my keyboard that lets me type ^ and ê ... right now I cant type ^ ( default ) or ê (no dead keys) . I had to switch variants to write this sentence actually. [15:36] is there a variant that actually works? ... Im pretty sure it worked in suse and Iirc in debian too. [15:37] is there a name for the keyboard variant you want? [15:38] used to be able to write ^ when I hit ^ twice. I think it was in the default variant. right now nothing happens when I push ^ twice ... or even more often [15:39] ohhh its ^ + space now . [15:39] Hum I guess the variant changed a little. [15:39] woot [15:41] e.g. to type ` bla | grep blup ` ... to write the ` its no longer "hit the `-key twice" its "hit `-key then space" . strange strange . [15:44] does seem strange [15:45] I just use the standard keyboard stuff - to get a ` I hit the ` key once...
