| SCWLstmp | Hello everyone | 01:40 |
| gizmobay | Hi | 01:40 |
| SCWLstmp | Does anyone have any ideas to print multiple files in one go? Akin to the old KDE 3.x method of selecting multiple, right click, print | 01:40 |
| SCWLstmp | Some basic googling has found people gripping about this functionality no longer being present in KDE, but I haven't found any solutions really. | 01:41 |
| nbnds | hi there! i'd like to know if kde 4.5.2 has oficially arrived to 10.10? i did just testd it on fedora 14, its awesome and the and no more lags! | 02:26 |

| ChrisBuchholz | Hey guys. I am just setting up my new kubuntu box (migrated from Ubuntu yesterday) and are wondering if there exists a KDE-specific app like the one i used on Ubuntu called startupmanager, to fix my "startup settings" like colors and screen resolution, or if that one is also the same used on KDE? | 06:45 |
| elimental | Syste, Settings bottom called Startup and shutdown ChrisBuchholz | 06:47 |
| elimental | system* | 06:47 |
| elimental | Sorry I didnt read entire question I thought you wanted autostart | 06:49 |
| ChrisBuchholz | elimental: oh, no worries;) | 06:49 |
| ChrisBuchholz | elimental: problem is, when i enable my nvidia driver, i get all wrong resolution and only 8 colors on the plymouth screen. I usually fix this with the gnome app startupmanager | 06:49 |
| elimental | Yeah I know... havent found one yet, moved to kde about a week ago :) | 06:50 |
| elimental | gnome user myself... but Unity forced me to move to kde early :) | 06:51 |
| geekosopher | ChrisBuchholz: check the 'display' option in system settings | 06:51 |
| ChrisBuchholz | elimental: oh, funny! I did that too, for exactly the same reasons!!! | 06:51 |
| ChrisBuchholz | geekosopher: thank you, ill take a look | 06:51 |
| geekosopher | can't say for sure if your changed settings will remain so after rebooting, no experience with nvidia cards (or any card for that matter) | 06:53 |
| elimental | ChrisBuchholz: weat we looking for is http://kde-apps.org/content/show.php?content=75442 | 06:53 |
| elimental | but its not in 4.5 as it doesnt suport grub 2 yet | 06:53 |
| ChrisBuchholz | elimental: oh... | 06:53 |
| ChrisBuchholz | geekosopher: the settings seems to be right in there | 06:54 |
| geekosopher | hmm, but the output is not what you expect? | 06:55 |
| ChrisBuchholz | geekosopher: well, i figure that in system settings > display, it only targets when i am in kde right? I did on gnome anyways. I had to use the startupmanager application, which configure grub, to set specific resolution and colors. I guess what i am looking for is a KDE app to configure grub | 06:56 |
| ChrisBuchholz | it did on gnome* | 06:57 |
| geekosopher | oh, ok | 06:57 |
| geekosopher | ChrisBuchholz: sorry i mis-interpreted | 06:58 |
| ChrisBuchholz | geekosopher: no worries, mate | 06:58 |
| === Kalidarn is now known as zz_Kalidarn | ||
| === zz_Kalidarn is now known as Kalidarn | ||

| geekosopher | ktorrent had partially downloaded a file when I switched from jaunty to maverick. The file was being saved on another partition so it is intact even after clean fresh install of maverick. What I am wondering is, if i copy the .kde/share/apps/ktorrent of jaunty to maverick, will it resume downloading from where it left? | 07:37 |
| moetunes | interesting question - only one way to find out I guess :) | 07:39 |
| danni_ | geekosopher: Probably | 07:39 |
| danni_ | but you might want to copy settings from ~/.kde/share/apps and | 07:40 |
| danni_ | ~/.kde/share/config as well | 07:40 |
| danni_ | oh wait | 07:40 |
| danni_ | you don't have those | 07:40 |
| danni_ | anyways most likely yes | 07:41 |
| geekosopher | danni_: ok, trying | 07:41 |

| andrewh192 | ok | 08:07 |
| andrewh192 | i have a question for you... | 08:07 |
| andrewh192 | I have downloaded and supposedly installed a few themes for my login screen | 08:07 |
| andrewh192 | but they won't appear as choices for themes | 08:08 |
| andrewh192 | just the default one | 08:08 |
| andrewh192 | is available | 08:08 |
| andrewh192 | i am a little curious where these files go, so maybe i can try to manually install them | 08:09 |
| andrewh192 | via the "insttall new theme" button | 08:10 |
| jussi | andrewh192: where did you down load them? | 08:12 |
| jussi | ie. in which program? | 08:12 |
| andrewh192 | hey | 08:13 |
| andrewh192 | from the login screen get new themes button | 08:13 |
| andrewh192 | Login Screen-System Settings | 08:14 |
| jussi | oho? theres a get new themes button on the login screen now? didnt know about that one... | 08:14 |
| jussi | oh | 08:14 |
| andrewh192 | yeah | 08:14 |
| jussi | one sec | 08:14 |
| andrewh192 | but, it seems that when i supposedly choose one from the list, and "install" it | 08:14 |
| jussi | I knew there was one in system settings, just thought you meant on the actual login | 08:14 |
| andrewh192 | it never shows up on my list to choose from | 08:15 |
| andrewh192 | oh | 08:15 |
| andrewh192 | yeah | 08:15 |
| andrewh192 | that's the one i meant | 08:15 |
| andrewh192 | didn't mean at actual login | 08:15 |
| andrewh192 | sorry | 08:15 |
| andrewh192 | my bad | 08:15 |
| FloodBotK2 | andrewh192: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 08:15 |
| andrewh192 | should have explained that better | 08:15 |
| andrewh192 | am i supposed to login as root or something and then change that? because i have been able to successfully change other themes | 08:16 |
| jussi | andrewh192: give me a sec, Im playing - seems I get the same thing | 08:16 |
| andrewh192 | but for some reason it won't let me install a new theme for the login screen | 08:16 |
| andrewh192 | how do you install a new login screen theme? | 08:17 |
| nafri | hello... which is the best MSN client for linux with webcam support? | 08:17 |
| jussi | andrewh192: first, this is a bug and needs fixing. second, let me try one thing to see if I can sort a work around | 08:18 |
| jussi | nafri: I think kopete does a good job of it | 08:18 |
| nafri | jussi: kopete does support webcam but not for msn :( | 08:19 |
| jussi | really? I was pretty sure it did... | 08:20 |
| andrewh192 | do you know where those theme files get put? | 08:21 |
| andrewh192 | maybe i can install theme manually | 08:21 |
| jussi | andrewh192: it is a bug - please file it if you have time. I also have a workaround for now | 08:21 |
| andrewh192 | ok | 08:21 |
| andrewh192 | kewl | 08:22 |
| andrewh192 | i am all ears | 08:22 |
| Tm_T | jussi: atleast it did at some point, have to test it if it still does | 08:22 |
| jussi | andrewh192: if you go to kde-look.org and click KDM themes you can download the themes normally from there - then just use the "install new theme" button and choose the downloaded file | 08:23 |

| crissi_ | hello. how i can replace the kubuntu notify popups and use the kde ones (4.5.2) | 10:03 |
| crissi_ | i'm running 10.10 | 10:04 |
| James147 | crissi_: as far as i know kubuntu did use the kde ones | 10:04 |
| crissi_ | i have upgraded from lucid | 10:05 |
| crissi_ | and karmic, janty before | 10:05 |
| crissi_ | which packages i have to install? can put your package list into pastebin (dpkg -l | grep ii)? | 10:06 |
| crissi_ | i could use it for diffing | 10:07 |
| James147 | crissi_: what makes you think that kubuntu has changed the notify system to its own rather then kdes? | 10:07 |
| surunveri | hi | 10:07 |
| surunveri | im using kubuntu 10.04 and somehow managed to hide windows from the taskbar so open programs are not visible tehre but i've no idea how that happened :D is there a way to restore taskbar defaults or anything? | 10:08 |
| crissi_ | the ubuntu ones does not work correctly | 10:08 |
| James147 | surunveri: add the widget called "task manager" back to the panel | 10:08 |
| crissi_ | for example: http://imgpaste.com/tmp/otwfj.png | 10:09 |
| crissi_ | i think the notifications are fetched by the unbuntu ones | 10:09 |
| James147 | crissi_: :s I would suggest creating a new user and see if they have the same problem | 10:09 |
| crissi_ | which packages i have to install? can put your package list into pastebin (dpkg -l | grep ii)? | 10:10 |
| surunveri | thx | 10:10 |

| James147 | sona: try running "sudo apt-get update" first | 10:12 |
| sona | James147: does not help | 10:12 |
| James147 | sona: does it give an error? | 10:13 |
| sona | nope | 10:13 |

| ChrisBuchholz | Peace-: i have that too. Chromium / google chromium is awesome. If just it was native. | 11:17 |
| Peace- | ChrisBuchholz: well.. chromium is based on webkit | 11:17 |

| jwatt | hi, I'm trying kubuntu | 12:14 |
| jwatt | unfortunately the wireless networking seems to have a problem | 12:14 |
| jwatt | if I click on the "WLAN Interface" icon in the taskbar it fails to show me a list of available networks | 12:15 |
| jwatt | clicking on "Show More" got me that list (why does that button even exist?) | 12:17 |
| jwatt | but then double clicking on the name of my wireless network does nothing | 12:17 |
| jwatt | I expect to be prompted to enter the wireless key | 12:17 |
| jwatt | should that be what happens? | 12:17 |

| Peace- | danni_: to me indexing is not neccesary | 12:35 |
| jwatt | it has defaulted to None, for some reason | 12:36 |
| danni_ | Well in that case fire away | 12:36 |
| jwatt | can't it detect what type of security is in use on the wireless network automatically? | 12:36 |
| Peace- | jwatt: of course is none by default | 12:36 |
| Peace- | jwatt: ok which is the name of your network? | 12:36 |
| danni_ | (You might need it if you use Kontact) | 12:36 |

| Peace- | jwatt: linux is always linux | 12:38 |
| progre55 | Peace-: doesnt really help) | 12:38 |
| jwatt | it should just really show me what wireless networks are available, let me double click on one, enter the network key, and done | 12:38 |

Webpages takes much longer to load, and a irc channel can take several minutes to join where i am used to almost instant joining. I wonder if this is a known issue with a solution, or?

| ChrisBuchholz | moetunes: it seems at a glance | 13:40 |
| ChrisBuchholz | moetunes: but it is all time. Hmm, just tried to use a wired connection - i dont have this issue here. It seems to be a problem with my wireless connector. Maybe a bad driver? | 13:41 |

| Peace- | Vivius: tell me you was a ubuntu guys? | 15:59 |
| Vivius | last time i tried gettin this cam to work in ubuntu 8 or something it wrecked my head | 15:59 |
| Vivius | KDE seems way more advanced than Gnome why does anyone use gnome i dunno | 16:00 |
| Vivius | guess its simplier layout if your focusing on work | 16:00 |
| Vivius | with all the extras in KDE i don't see much slow down, if anything it does more faster. | 16:00 |
| Vivius | ok one question in kopete if my cam works does that mean I can cam2cam with my GF? thats the only reason i have windows on my laptop anymore | 16:01 |
| Vivius | would love KDE on it :D | 16:01 |
| Vivius | TRY IT right peace | 16:02 |
| Vivius | lol | 16:02 |
| Vivius | wow i'm getting a lot more fixed using this chat thing than the forums :) | 16:03 |
| dmatt | Vivius: I do not know if there is currently any protocol supported in Kopete which uses video as well (jabber is in works), but you can use skype | 16:04 |
| Vivius | wonder if the mic on the cam works in skype hmm | 16:04 |
| Vivius | i'll give ita shot | 16:04 |
| Vivius | thanks dmatt | 16:04 |
| Vivius | me and the GF use Skype anyway | 16:04 |
| Vivius | awesome | 16:04 |
| dmatt | just enable partner repositories and install skype from there | 16:04 |
| Vivius | have already downloaded skype from their website | 16:05 |
| dmatt | if you haven't done already | 16:05 |
| dmatt | I would go for repository version, it is tested and safer | 16:05 |
| Vivius | ok...partner repos... | 16:06 |

| Vivius | ah I've dabbled in linux on and off for years, only used ubuntu for like 2 years, doesn't know I know much about using linux tho lol :) | 16:09 |
| Vivius | but with all these new versions the last few years i thought I'd give it a go see if it would work better for me and get away from windows | 16:09 |
| Vivius | which is going well so far | 16:10 |
| Vivius | I've used OpenSUSE, Ubuntu many versions, Kubuntu a few times but not for ages | 16:10 |
| Vivius | etc | 16:10 |

| Vivius | thanks Peace | 16:14 |
| Vivius | ok heres my last, quite vain question | 16:14 |
| Vivius | when I first installed Kubuntu | 16:14 |
| Peace- | Vivius: but... i guess | 16:14 |
| Vivius | the font was really smooth and Mac OSX lookin was sweet | 16:14 |
| Vivius | but now | 16:14 |
| Peace- | wiki it's the best | 16:14 |
| Vivius | it seems the same font | 16:14 |
| Vivius | but thinner and not as smooth | 16:14 |
| FloodBotK2 | Vivius: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 16:14 |
| Peace- | !wiki | 16:14 |
| ubottu | http://wiki.ubuntu.com - Ubuntu development documentation wiki. If you are looking for system help, please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community - the Ubuntu community documentation. | 16:14 |
| Vivius | any ideas what happened? | 16:14 |
| Peace- | Vivius: keep in mind wann reset your user? | 16:15 |
| Peace- | Vivius: rename $HOME/.kde | 16:15 |
| Peace- | upgrading kde you get problem ? | 16:15 |
| Peace- | rename $HOME/.kde | 16:15 |
| Peace- | xD | 16:15 |
| Vivius | I don't know exactly what you mean Peace by that, to solve the font thing? | 16:16 |
| Peace- | it could | 16:16 |
| Peace- | if not ? | 16:16 |
| Vivius | it wasn't from an upgrade, I don't know why it happened, I've instaled a fresh KDE4, but after a few days the font just went funny, but I can tell its the same font. | 16:16 |
| Peace- | rename back that folder | 16:16 |
| Peace- | Vivius: where are you from? | 16:17 |
| Vivius | What is the default font when you install Kubuntu? Mine is called Ubuntu atm | 16:17 |
| Vivius | I'm from Ireland, u? | 16:17 |
| Peace- | italy | 16:17 |
| Peace- | wow my english xD can be understood | 16:17 |
| Vivius | Nice, dya play assassins creed :D love that game | 16:17 |
| Vivius | what does resetting the user do Peace, it won't mess everything up will it, and do i just type what you wrote there and it'll be done? | 16:18 |
| Peace- | Vivius: renaming $HOME/.kde = like you have just installed the system | 16:21 |
| Vivius | ok i typed it and the comp is working loads, no m sgs yet | 16:21 |
| Vivius | fingers crossed | 16:21 |
| Peace- | so no customizations | 16:21 |
| Peace- | no passwords | 16:21 |
| Peace- | but hey you want get them back | 16:22 |
| Vivius | not even the root password? and my app links will be gone?!? :O | 16:22 |
| Peace- | just rename that folder | 16:22 |
| Peace- | Vivius: root password will be kept | 16:22 |
| Peace- | Vivius: ya for liks | 16:22 |

| Vivius | hehe | 16:23 |
| Peace- | rename back... | 16:23 |
| Peace- | :) | 16:23 |
| Vivius | well at least I know a new command now if the crap hits the fan, linux always feels to me like an egg you have to be careful with in case you drop lol | 16:23 |
| Vivius | but I know thats just down to my lack of knowledge :) | 16:23 |
| Vivius | it wont remove all the programs i've installed will it | 16:24 |
| dmatt | Vivius: this only removes settings for KDE, if KDE is started without settings files, it creates new with defaults ... so removing them means user workspace customisations reser | 16:26 |
| dmatt | *reset | 16:26 |
| Vivius | right ok thanks dmatt | 16:27 |
| Vivius | sure is takin a while | 16:27 |
| dmatt | Vivius: I suggest you explore System Setting, where under pplication Look (or something similar, I have localised version) you find settings for fonts and dithering... | 16:28 |
| Vivius | k thanks :D | 16:29 |
| dmatt | Vivius: there is lot of other options to customise every aspect of your KDE system | 16:29 |

| dmatt | Vivius: just one more tip: use alt-f2 to quickly start any application just typing few starting characters from the name... you will forget about menu very soon :) | 16:31 |
| Vivius | ooo nice, thanks dmatt! | 16:33 |
| Vivius | i've tried changing fonts manually there and messing with settings | 16:33 |
| Vivius | it just doesn't look as smooth as before | 16:33 |
| Vivius | but i know its the same damn font | 16:33 |
| Vivius | it might have happened when i installed something gnome related a while back, but i can't remember now... | 16:34 |
| wilhart | tnx got jabber working | 16:34 |
| dmatt | Vivius: try to play with dithering options | 16:34 |
| Vivius | where is dithering options? | 16:35 |
| dmatt | just under the font selection | 16:36 |
| dmatt | maybe it is not dithering, but hinting | 16:36 |
| dmatt | System Settings/Application Look/Fonts | 16:37 |
| Vivius | thanks dmatt, already checked that, it isn't a big issue, but I swear the fonts looked so perfect and smooth when i first loaded it, just a bit annoying, nothing major :) | 16:38 |
| dmatt | try to boot from livecd and compare | 16:39 |
| Vivius | good idea! | 16:40 |
| Vivius | how long does this rename thing take, i typed it in, and nothing has happened in konsole, or went back to command line entry | 16:40 |
| dmatt | it should take few seconds only, but i never tried it on live system | 16:42 |
| Vivius | ok gonan drop off here and reboot and see what happens, hope i'm still here when i get back :D | 16:42 |
| dmatt | if you see prompt then it's finished already | 16:42 |
| Vivius | thanks for the help dmatt and Peace- | 16:42 |

| dan__ | hey guys. i've stumbled upon a problem. i run compiz fusion through emerald. although compiz fusion icon starts at startup(at the same time with KDE) i can't get it to run. i need to run "compiz --replace" for it to be ok. any ideas how i can make this command work at startup aswell? | 17:16 |
| wilhart | dan use kde effects? | 17:17 |
| dan__ | well that's the point :) KDE starts with kde effects. but i want it to start directly with the compiz effects | 17:18 |
| wilhart | dan__, just remove that compiz crap | 17:19 |
| wilhart | ? | 17:19 |
| wilhart | kde 4.5.3 kubuntu 10.10 ppa | 17:19 |
| wilhart | i cant find that in google | 17:19 |
| dan__ | no thanks :) i actually like it | 17:19 |
| dmatt | wilhart: if you have kubuntu ppa, you will get it automatically when it's ready, i believe | 17:20 |
| dmatt | that's how it worked in past | 17:21 |

| wilhart | dmatt, ok | 17:31 |

| wilhart | dmatt, but why doesnt this have 4.5.2 ? | 17:31 |
| dmatt | wilhart: open kpackagekit, choose Settings, then Edit origins | 17:32 |
| dmatt | becasu you do not use ppa for 4.5.x updates | 17:32 |
| wilhart | dmatt, that first one ? backports? | 17:32 |
| wilhart | maverick | 17:32 |
| wilhart | dmatt what is medibuntu and psyke ? | 17:33 |
| dmatt | no, wait till i find it | 17:33 |
| wilhart | dmatt, what are those others that is not marked X | 17:34 |
| wilhart | dmatt, i think it's backports | 17:34 |

| wilhart | Mitschel, 10.10 | 18:31 |
| Mitschel | ok | 18:32 |
| Mitschel | do you mean the 4.5.3 release? if so, first of all you have to wait till the version is packaged for kubuntu | 18:33 |
| Matisse | hi | 18:34 |
| Matisse | is there a way to force stereo output to also send data to the subwoofer? | 18:34 |
| Mitschel | and once it is packaged just put this "ppa:kubuntu-ppa" into your repository list https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Kubuntu | 18:36 |
| Matisse | like mono is forced to stereo | 18:38 |
| wilhart | Mitschel, ehmm... | 18:46 |
| wilhart | Mitschel, reposity list ? | 18:46 |
| Mitschel | wilhart: did you read that link i posted? its the "other software" window | 18:48 |
| wilhart | Mitschel, about | 18:48 |
| Mitschel | wilhart: this one: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Kubuntu | 18:50 |
| wilhart | Mitschel, hmm | 18:51 |
| wilhart | MichealH, in couple days this upgrades 4.5.3 ? | 18:51 |
| Mitschel | yes as soon as the packaging guys did thier magic, right now theres no easy way to get the 4.5.3 update. you have to wait | 18:52 |
| wilhart | Mitschel, my software program doesnt have those | 18:52 |

| reallove | hello. I have a weird issue on my lenovo laptop running Kubuntu 10.10. After upgrading it from 10.04, I only have sound in speakers, and not when I plug in the headphones. Any ideas where to look ? thanks! | 19:56 |
| moetunes | reallove: in konsole alsamixer and turn the headphones up maybe | 20:01 |

| jmichaelx | reallove: what audio adapter is used in your laptop? | 20:11 |
| reallove | 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801I (ICH9 Family) HD Audio Controller (rev 03) | 20:11 |
| reallove | if this is what you ask, jmichaelx | 20:12 |
| jmichaelx | reallove: yes.... i have seen in the forums that other people are experiencing the same problem with that adapter | 20:12 |
| reallove | although, I haven't tried the fix described in that bug report | 20:13 |
| reallove | rebooting now, let's see if it helps me | 20:13 |
| reallove | brb | 20:13 |
| jmichaelx | reallove: i have rev 02 and have also been having problems, but a different one than yours | 20:13 |
| wilhart | we need more effects! | 20:15 |
| reallove | jmichaelx: wow. looks like I'm lucky. The fix from that bug report works for me too | 20:17 |
| jmichaelx | reallove: good deal.... did you just have to add an option to your alsa-base.conf? | 20:20 |
| reallove | jmichaelx: correct | 20:20 |
| reallove | now time to fix the next issue that appeared after upgrading to 10.10... my computer does not go to sleep when I close the lid | 20:21 |
| jmichaelx | reallove: nothing frustrates me more with linux than the constant one step forward, one step backward dance.... | 20:21 |
| reallove | jmichaelx: you bet. although, when I upgraded to 10.04 nothing bad happened, only now. hrrrr | 20:22 |
| jmichaelx | reallove: i have had major issues with 10.10... had to revert back to 10.04 on one laptop due to regressions with mobile intel video performance in 10.10 | 20:23 |

| reallove | I just discovered when I got to work that I had a 3rd issue with the upgrade: I am connecting to an external monitor through the docking station, and now the resolution and the monitor management sucks badly | 20:24 |
| jmichaelx | reallove: what video adapter? | 20:25 |
| reallove | I have to admit though that the upgrade brought a new network manager waaaay better than the previous | 20:25 |
| reallove | 00:02.1 Display controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 4 Series Chipset Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 07) | 20:25 |
| jmichaelx | reallove: i am thinking that you may be able to get things straightened out with that card... not sure though | 20:27 |
| reallove | but the most annoying thing is that 'sleep' not working when closing lid. | 20:27 |
| reallove | this frustrates me more | 20:27 |
| jmichaelx | reallove: mobile intel sucks royally in maverick | 20:27 |
| reallove | heh | 20:28 |
| reallove | jmichaelx: omg, again, I am no the only one having the suspend-to-ram problem | 20:30 |
| reallove | damn this upgrade | 20:30 |
| jmichaelx | reallove: join the croud of folks who remain very unimpressed with maverick | 20:33 |
| jmichaelx | crowd* | 20:33 |
| jmichaelx | unimpressed is very much an understatement, in my case | 20:33 |
| dmatt | jmichaelx: i do not think it is so bad release | 20:37 |
| reallove | well dmatt , for me, the score of bad things vs improvements was 3:1 | 20:37 |
| dmatt | jmichaelx: those who have problems always feel there is lot of people with problems, but it is different group each time... you might find 10.4 was big problem for some other people | 20:38 |
| jmichaelx | dmatt: you cannot assess merely by the fact that your harware mixed well with 10.10.... when so many of the most common laptop GPUs on the market are doing so badly, it is a bad thing... even if you are blessed with having something that worls better | 20:39 |
| dmatt | jmichaelx: but was it better any previous release? this time nvidia, intel before.... | 20:40 |
| jmichaelx | dmatt: well, intel GPUs had done well the last several releases, although there was one (edgy?) that had intel problems | 20:44 |
| dmatt | jmichaelx: it was jaunty | 20:47 |
| jmichaelx | dmatt: ok, that sounds more like it | 20:47 |
| === erwin is now known as Guest77578 | ||
| jmichaelx | dmatt: i am not calling maverick a train wreck, but there are in my opinion, some very serious flaws that go beyond the norm | 20:48 |
| reallove | good, the suspend-to-RAM is fixed by applying the acpitool -s trick | 20:48 |
| jmichaelx | reallove: congrats | 20:49 |
| reallove | the last issue remains with connecting the external monitor, which I suspect to be the more difficult | 20:49 |
| reallove | jmichaelx: heh thanks, google is my best friend :) | 20:49 |
| jmichaelx | dmatt: edgy was going a bit too far back in time, lol | 20:51 |
| dmatt | jmichaelx: no matter what changes in stack, there is allways somebody in pain | 20:51 |
| delac | how can I adjust menu and popup transparency while using compiz? | 20:52 |
| jmichaelx | dmatt: to be sure.... which is the reason linux is never going to "rule the desktop" | 20:52 |
| dmatt | jmichaelx: don't be so negative :) | 20:55 |
| jmichaelx | dmatt: i think what i said was more a result of realism than anything. also, i do not think i would like what would have to happen to linux for it to get to the point that it *could* rule the desktop | 20:56 |
| dmatt | jmichaelx: I would survive linux rule ... (you could allways fork if things go wrong) | 21:02 |
| jmichaelx | dmatt: it won't happen.... not on the desktop. in order for that to happen, linux distros would have to become much more unifrom... we do not want to go there..... | 21:03 |
| jmichaelx | dmatt: the server room is another case entirely.... linux is slowly taking that realm over. the problem with the desktop is that desktop linux users will always have to be a bit more tech savvy that your average PC user | 21:04 |
| delac | am I asking the right question? what determines the level of opacity on menus and popups? because if I change from kwin to compiz, the level of opacity of the menus and popups is changed drastically | 21:04 |
| delac | how can I adjust those levels? | 21:05 |
| dmatt | jmichaelx: nevermind I have not any longing for linux domination, till it works for me ... and is easier to support on my family PC's :D | 21:07 |
| jmichaelx | dmatt: i totally agree..... it is VERY much what i prefer, both at work and at home | 21:08 |
