joanWhat text procesor is better for KDE integration?00:24
Snowhogjoan: If you want simple, Kate, and it's installed in Kubuntu by default.00:26
joanI need for odt00:27
joanLike OpenOffice00:27
joanbut better integration00:27
yofelkword then (part of koffice)00:27
JunaosPersonally, I think OpenOffice integrates better than KWord.00:28

jschallSnowhog: that's kind of how i am, but i've tried quite a lot and most of them end up failing somehow - for example, anything that fetches information from the internet tends to fail when you're not connected to the internet, and then when the system does get connected, they don't figure that out and fix themselves.00:59

draikHello everyone03:10
draikI've had this issue for a while, but not known the solution yet.03:10

draikNO solution appears to be documented anywhere about this03:11
draikI am on a different computer and I don't get this issue03:11
draikBoth computers are on the same network; wired, too (if that matters).03:12
ubuntu4shanedraik: not many people around tonight, that is strange, is the network setup correctly on the kubuntu install?03:14
ubuntu4shaneI'm a complete noob to kde stuff, not new to Linux, but kubuntu is pretty foreign to me, so not sure I can be of much help03:15
draikubuntu4shane: No worries. Yes, it is setup just fine. This happens from time to time. The only so-called solution is restarting the computer. I also restart the 'nscd' service, but that doesn't do it for me like it seems to have worked for others.03:16
draik...and now it all works03:17
ubuntu4shanedraik: hmm, I'm not sure I have used Ubuntu for a long time and never run into that, oodd.03:17
draikIt's a nuisance (sp?), really.03:17
ubuntu4shaneI'm sure, only thing I could recommend is to try out wicd, that is what I have used for years for my network stuff, and it works like a charm03:18
ubuntu4shane!wicd03:18
ubuntu4shanewell, wicd is a network manager replacement, if the bug is in network manager, using wicd would avoid it.03:19

tilted_mind1how do I configure a keyboard shortcut to switch workplaces?07:25
valoriebigbrovar: I have GIT installed, with KDE 4.5.407:26
sqwertletilted_mind1: There is probably an easier way but compiz will allow you to do that07:26
valorieI don't think that is even necessary07:26
tilted_mind1sqwertle:  do I have to make a choice between compiz and plasma?07:27
Abhishcompiz and plasma are two different layers.07:57
AbhishCompiz does fancy special effects. Plasma is a widget layer that handles your desktop, task bar, and other desktop UI elements.07:58
kubthis is a test08:15

sresuI've a compressed file .rar of a podcast which are in parts as in part1.rar till part4.rar. But every file extracted doesn't work individually. Neither .rar files nor the podcast files(.ogg) are corrupt. How should I run it? Should I extract all the files in sequence to one as indivaidually its not working? Or how?08:26
ko2is it able to have compisiting and compiz both installed?08:29
AbhishCompiz is the thing that does the compositing.08:32
ko2and kwin compsites too08:33
AbhishAh, I think different compositing systems will fight.08:36
amichairsresu_: you put all of the rar parts together, and extract the first part (usually it has a .rar extension, but maybe it's the part1.rar file) - and the extracter should pick up the rest of the parts08:41
sresu_amichair: How will it know when to stop? How does it follow te sequence?08:42
ko2where can i see which kde version i have? in adept?08:42
ko2in adept i have kdebase-bin-kde3 installed (version 4:3.5.10-0ubuntu1~hardy2)08:42
valorieko2 -- simple way is to check the Help section in any KDE app08:46
valorieHelp > About KDE08:46
amichairsresu: I don't know technically how it works - probably some indication in the rar format headers that there are additional parts (or total size is seen greater than available data in first part)... but the point is, it's handled automatically and you don't need to process the subsequent parts manually08:54
amichairsresu: and with or without parts, it has its own checksumming mechanism so it can tell if anything is missing or invalid08:57
seicherlbobhi! I'm running Kubuntu Karmic (9.10) with KDE 4.3.2. It looks like there was a Kontact/Kmail update, since then KMail is no longer integrated into Kontacts Window, but instead shows in a separate Windows. I could not find a Setting to disable this behaviour. Can anyone help me with that, its really annoying.08:59
ko2i have a "Intel Corporation 82865G Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 02)". Can i update that in Kubuntu Hardy Heron with adept?09:07
valorieseicherlbob: any reason in particular you are running such an old version of Kub.?09:09
seicherlbobvalorie: never change a running system09:09
seicherlbobvalorie: actually, "I'll do it tomorrow"09:10
valoriehaha09:10
amichairseicherlbob: then don't change your drivers, either :-P09:10
oysterhi09:10
oysteris there a  good guide on ncmpcpp for noobs?09:11
seicherlbobamichair: my drivers? i guess they are not responsible for the kmail issue i have.09:11
reisiseicherlbob: running .10 does not sound a particulary good idea, especially if you are using it for desktop stuff09:11
reisiseicherlbob: running old .10 ...09:11
amichairseicherlbob: oh sorry, mixed up the nicks :-)09:11
seicherlbobamichair: np09:11
seicherlbobreisi: yeah, but it used to work well until i started the  machine yesterday (or the other day)09:12
seicherlbobreisi: so i should just update to 10.4 LTS? because my kmail annoyes me?09:14
sresu_amichair: Sorry I lost connection before. About unrar x command. How will it know when to stop? How does it follow the sequence? Is .partx.rar extension required or only .rar is sufficient?09:15
amichairsresu: I don't know technically how it works - probably some indication in the rar format headers that there are additional parts (or total size is seen greater than available data in first part)... but the point is, it's handled automatically and you don't need to process the subsequent parts manually09:15
amichairyou should leave the part extensions (the first part is just .rar if I remember correctly)09:16
sresu_amichair: Ah-ok. Thanks09:16
sresu_amichair: No its like .part1.rar till .part4.rar.. podcast file09:16
amichairthe part extensions have 2 different forms, the old one is .r00, .r01... and the newer scheme is .part1.rar, .part2.rar... both systems should work (as long as you're consistent within a given archive)09:17
amichairin any case, just try unraring the first part while having the rest of them in the same directory, and it should work09:18
reisiseicherlbob: i like using .10 versions as well so i run 10.10 atm, but running .4 lts for long-term usage sounds much wiser than old .1009:18
reisiseicherlbob: if this bug is still present in 10.04 there will be much more willingness to fix it than for 9.1009:18
sresu_amichair: Well, I found that even parts of .rar as in file1.rar till file4.rar works09:19
seicherlbobreisi: grmpf... so i will finally have to update. thanks! I'll check my laptop as it has 10.4 installed.09:19
seicherlbobthanks so far and bye everybody09:19
* seicherlbob is going to update to 10.4 LTS09:19
sresu_amichair: Anyway, I'd be unrar x file.part1.rar, right? Rest it will handle09:19
amichairsresu_: try it :-)09:20
sresu_Yep. Thanks09:20

vbgunzdasKreech: I haven't tried, the gui is useless and all shortcuts are too. when I switch to tty1 the comreset messages continously scroll by and I am unable to really type anything comfortably. if I wait in tty to see what happens, the system ultimately goes read only and I am dropped into another terminal of some sort, not bash, I think initramfs or something, I forgot :(16:06

mfraz74in kubuntu 10.10 how do i configure a network connection system wide?16:08
vbgunzdasKreech: I am grateful in a sense that when it locks up read only everything becomes unusable *but* it's very frustrating to have to deal with it at all :/16:09
vbgunzI gotta reboot to test something but I am trying to just finish up an article about something16:09
ElephantmandasKreech: you meen the #kwin channel ? or something else ?16:10
dasKreechElephantman: I do16:13
mfraz74what I want to do is be able to set a wireless connection so that all users on that computer can use it, but that option is greyed otu16:13
mfraz74out16:13
dasKreechmfraz74: it should change the system settings as far as I know so all users should be able to get net16:16
dasKreechif not then try wicd16:16
mfraz74dasKreech: there is a box in the edit network connection window that says 'system connection' but it is greyed out with now way of un-greying it16:17
mfraz74in older versions of kubuntu there used to be an unlock button and i think ubuntu still has it16:18
vgshi, does anyone knows how insert superscript "~" in kate for regular expression?16:22
Snowhogmfraz74: I think that you need to delete the existing wireless connection you see, and then add it in again. The option for system wide is/should be available when the connection is being setup, and you have to check it at that time.16:26
Snowhogmfraz74: You can test that theory by adding another wireless entry.16:27
dasKreechmfraz74: bug?16:31

tuttle_ok, thank you... but my english is very poor... I can try, but please be cool with me :)20:35
Snowhogtuttle_: But of course!20:36

tuttle_I don't know why20:37
Snowhogtuttle_: Doing some searching here.20:40
Snowhogtuttle_: After having installed openvpn, are these two packages also installed:  network-manager-vpnc network-manager-openvpn20:42
tuttle_not now... I will do that now !20:43
genii-aroundHm. network-manager-openvpn-kde perhaps20:43
tuttle_could I supress network-manager-openvpn and install network-manager-openvpn-kde in synaptic ?20:45
tuttle_I just do that at the moment : sudo aptitude install network-manager-openvpn20:45
tuttle_before comming here20:46
Snowhogtuttle_: I think I'd agree with genii-around, and install just network-manager-openvpn-kde20:46

tuttle_network-manager-openvpn-kde    Before I uninstall network-manager-openvpn and network-manager-openvpn-gnome20:53
Snowhogtuttle_: Conflicting dependencies. If it were me, I would uninstall/purge the openvpn package you installed before coming here. Then install network-manager-openvpn-kde.20:54
tuttle_I did... I suppressed network-manager-openvpn on synaptic, synaptic add network-manager-openvpn-gnome to suppress too... and, after, I installed network-manager-openvpn-kde with a lot of dependencies (that synaptic add automatically)...20:58

senorpedrohi folks21:15
senorpedrohow can i make the alt-f2 quickstarter to appear in the middle of the desktop like in previous versions?21:15
senorpedroin 10.10 its at the top of the windows which doesnt appeal to my natural view field21:16
Snowhogsenorpedro: Edit the ~/.kde/share/config/krunnerrc file.21:17
senorpedroSnowhog, i did. do i have to restart something after the change?21:18
senorpedrobecause it doesnt apply21:18
Snowhogsenorpedro: Restart KDE.21:18
Snowhogsenorpedro: logout/login.21:19
senorpedrohm but i have so many windows open ....21:19
senorpedrois there no other solution?21:19
senorpedrocant i just restart krunner?21:19
yofelsenorpedro: restarting krunner should be enough21:20
senorpedrohm doesnt work either21:20
yofeland you can set that in the krunner settings, no need to edit the config file21:20
senorpedrothats the saddest thing that ever happened to me21:20
senorpedroyofel, where in the settings?21:20
yofelopen krunner -> klick on the settings button -> user interface -> free floating window21:21
senorpedroah i found it21:21
senorpedrovery hidden btw21:21
Snowhogyofel: Cool.21:22
SnowhogI checked the wrench, but didn't notice the 'menu' in KRunner.21:22
Scunizipavucontrol will not start .. it errors with "Connection Failed: Connection refused".. how do I fix this? or should I?  I'm trying to record my google voice outgoing call to a teleconference21:27
ScuniziI guess kubuntu doesn't have pulse audio installed as part of the default audio package.. how can I record my outgoing google voice call?21:31
=== Muzer is now known as MuzerAway
HmpfCBRHm virtuoso was idling around. I used the nepomuk krunner to find a document. That worked. However virtuoso is now using 100% of one one cpu core and does not go down again. indexing is suspended. anyone an idea what is happening here (kde 4.5.4 on maverick).21:39
=== MuzerAway is now known as Muzer
yofelScunizi: pulseaudio is installed by default since maverick, so it should be there21:54
Scuniziyofel: well that would explain it.. I'm on LTS 10.0421:54
yofelah, phonon still uses alsa there by default21:55
Scuniziyofel: or is 10.04 actually a kubunt LTS release this time?21:55
yofelScunizi: IIRC it is, but pulseaudio won't be added to the default installation because of that21:55
Scuniziyofel: humm... is it worth the upgrade to Mav.? on a production machine? and if not do you have any idea how I can record from (google voice / skype / etc) on an outgoing call?21:56
yofelScunizi: first try to install pulseaudio, I don't think maverick is worth just for that, and I don't do calls on my pc, sry21:58
Scuniziyofel: I don't normally either.. but google voice seems to be serving me well espicailly for conference calls.  I've read that the install for pulseaudio on kubuntu 10.04 is broken.  The work-a-round being to install ubuntu and add kde.. yick. not a path I want to take.22:00
Scuniziyofel: despite it being google voice, recording should be the same as if you were streaming in audio from the net..22:01
yofelhm, IIRC I had pulse running in lucid when I used it, you need to tell phonon to use pulseaudio though22:01
Scunizihow do you do that?22:02
Scuniziah.. perhaps in the "Multimedia" section?22:03
_sudodoes anyone everhave the issue with the cursor becoming tiny and repeated on the y axis like 20 times to create a rectangular shape???22:03
yofelIn the multimedia settings use pulesaudio as output device, I'm not really sure what it's called in lucid22:03
Scunizisame.. and for capture should be the same I'd think22:04
=== Muzer is now known as MuzerAway
Scuniziyofel: ok.. installed pulseaudio.. I must have to restart some service to be able to see it as a selection in Multimedia.. does that sound right? (no pun intened)22:07
yofelpulseaudio isn't used as a service but started on demand, so start something that uses it, then logout so phonon sees it on login I think22:08
Scunizilike pavucontrol?  other than that I'm not sure how to designate something to start with pulseaudio.22:09
yofelthat should be fine probably..22:10
Scunizicrazy.. for devices it's only showing my INport usb device I use to record from analog sources :(22:11
Scuniziyofel: yea.. still not showing in Multimedia.. I'll have to mess with it later. I've got a deadline to meet.22:15
yofelk, it's been a while since I used lucid :/22:16

shane4ubuntuhow can I be sure that port 5154 is open on my system?22:45
shane4ubuntuI don't have ufw enabled, or running, so must be something else I need to do.22:45
Snowhogshane4ubuntu: See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo22:50
shane4ubuntuSnowhog: how can I know if it is tcp or the other?22:53
shane4ubunturunning bzflag as server?  would you guess tcp?22:54
Snowhogshane4ubuntu: What exactly are you trying to figure out? That the port is or is not open, or who/what is using it?22:55
shane4ubuntuSnowhog: I need port 5154 open so that my bzserver can receive connections from LAN22:55
shane4ubuntuSnowhog: I don't think the port is open, or, perhaps it would be easier to switch to a port I know is open, like my ssh port?22:56
basso!ratio+22:56
shane4ubuntulol, well, it didn't like port 22. :)22:57
shane4ubuntuincompatible ssh it said, I did this before, but I think I was using ufw and opened up the port there,22:57
Snowhogshane4ubuntu: Open a console and type:  netstat -lntup22:58
shane4ubuntuSnowhog: ok, udp, that was the other one, I'm not good at this port/network stuff.22:59
shane4ubuntuSnowhog: ok, and pick a port from there that says 'Listen" ?23:00
Snowhogshane4ubuntu: That command lists the open ports. To see all, preface the command with sudo. If the port you need to be open isn't listed, then it isn't open as I understand it.23:01
shane4ubuntuSnowhog: ok, thanks!23:01
Snowhogshane4ubuntu: Ultimately, you might need to utilize iptables (man iptables) to configure the port and/or your router.23:02
Snowhogshane4ubuntu: *and/or your rounter, meaning checking the router configuration for the port desired.23:03
shane4ubuntuSnowhog: ok, I should be fine with the router, since, I'm only accessing via local LAN23:03
shane4ubuntuSnowhog: when I did this before I don't think I had to touch my router.23:03
Roeyhey all23:04
Snowhogshane4ubuntu: Does sudo netstat -lntup show the desired port?23:04
shane4ubuntuSnowhog: no, not even after I enable it with the web page you sent. :(  I hate iptables. :)23:04
yofelyou can use 'nmap' too for port listing, 'nmap localhost' should show what's open23:04
SnowhogRoey: This is not a 'chat' channel. If you have a question, please just ask. If anyone has an answer, they will reply. ;)23:04
Roeykde 4.6beta2:  app launcher buttons on my panel no longer respond to clicks, and Keyboard Settings are ignored.  I have tried this with multiple user accounts on this system and it holds.23:05

Roeyya know, I'll check the schedules, otherwise someone might bug me about checking it for myself.23:06
Roeywell none of the keyboard settings that i have configured under "Keyboard Settings" appear to work23:06
shane4ubuntuSnowhog: ufw is looking easier right about now. :)23:06
Roeyincluding language layout switch key, keyboard repeat delay, the grave/compose key, Capslock key that I've set as an additional Control, etc.23:07
