| Ginbuntu | is it possible to configure the task bar of kde4 work like the super bar in win 7? | 00:49 |
| Ginbuntu | I like it that way | 00:49 |
| James147 | Ginbuntu: yes and no... | 00:50 |
| James147 | Ginbuntu: you can add icons to the taskbar and have them expand into the tray entrys (at least on kde 4.6...) | 00:51 |
| Ginbuntu | James147: problem is when I click on it the second time, it will launch a new process instead of showing the existing one | 00:51 |
| James147 | Ginbuntu: ^^ no... not if you drag them to the taskbar... not just the panel... but I only found this in kde 4.6, Ithink its a new feature in that version | 00:52 |
| tim__ | I have a strange situation. Using Kubuntu Maverick with KDE 4.5.1, I can't paste files into an sftp directory using dolphin or konqueror. I can create files, and even paste clipboard contents into a new file, I just can't paste files. Any ideas? | 00:55 |

| hotmanta | Hello, I have a question about time/date auto sync to time source, anybody interesting in discussing this? | 09:10 |
| xavier_ | what is the question, I am a noob but might help u find the answer | 09:10 |
| hotmanta | Thanks, I would like to know how time sync operates in kbuntu as apposed to Ubuntu which I fully understand. | 09:12 |
| xavier_ | ok, well, i dont know, let me tinker, if I find an answer, I will let u know | 09:13 |
| hotmanta | OK, I have been searching google to find a good explanation but can't find one. | 09:14 |
| xavier_ | Yeah, The most answers u will find are how to set, or how to, not how it works | 09:14 |
| hotmanta | exactly | 09:15 |
| xavier_ | kubuntu and ubuntu, from my limitied knowledge are not that different. Are u shure it does not operate in a simular way? | 09:16 |
| xavier_ | sure, typo, damn keyboard sucks on this computer | 09:16 |
| hotmanta | From what I can see it operates differently, it does not use the ntp daemon | 09:17 |
| hotmanta | On ubuntu it prompts you to install the ntp service when you choose to auto time sync. Kbuntu does not. | 09:18 |
| xavier_ | I think it is already installed with kubuntu. U have to enable the ntp daemon, but i think it already installs. | 09:20 |
| hotmanta | no only ntpdate get installed I believe not the service, I was looking at this earlier today. | 09:21 |
| hotmanta | I am talking Kubuntu 10.10, maybe earlier versions came with it installed / disabled. | 09:23 |
| xavier_ | Well. If u are able to update the time, using the ntp servers, then some sort of ntp daemon is installed, might not be the exact one, but it is installed. | 09:25 |
| hotmanta | Yeah thats what I thought, but after investigation I am not so sure. | 09:27 |
| xavier_ | if it updates, and u didnt install it, it has to be running and already installed. | 09:28 |
| hotmanta | It may be a script that runs but not a daemon as one person hinted at in a forum. | 09:29 |
| hotmanta | It does a time sync as soon as I hit the apply button, I set my clock back 5 mins and saw it happen. | 09:30 |
| muesli | how can i rename a plasma activity? | 09:32 |
| muesli | kde 4.5.5 | 09:32 |

| cduffy | in my opinion windows 7 is better | 13:07 |
| c2tarun | cduffy: ok thanks | 13:08 |
| cduffy | try it with the professional 32bit version. ther 64 bit is not that much compatible | 13:08 |
| c2tarun | my laptop was imported with win 7. Sorry to say but win7 is worst operating system i ever used. I my opinion if you want to use windows, go for XP its best. | 13:10 |

| rtdos | this is the error i get - Reinstallation of network-manager-kde is not possible, it cannot be downloaded. | 14:57 |
| susundberg | rtdos if you can set up network without network manager, boot to rescue with network prompt run apt-get purge .... and apt-get install | 15:03 |
| susundberg | but i would rather suggest finding out why its not showing up | 15:03 |

| rtdos | do i need the cd to boot to rescue? | 15:04 |
| susundberg | rtdos: have you checked daemon and .xsession errors? | 15:04 |
| susundberg | or did you do something you suspect that broke it | 15:04 |
| susundberg | does it show up on another user? | 15:04 |
| rtdos | no. | 15:04 |
| rtdos | it was there yesterday. i was adding wep to my router. | 15:05 |
| susundberg | try if it works with another user? | 15:05 |
| rtdos | yes i tried that. | 15:05 |
| susundberg | ah ok | 15:06 |
| susundberg | no luck? | 15:06 |
| BluesKaj | rtdos, right click on the desktop m, choose add panel | 15:06 |
| BluesKaj | oops , I should have scrolled down | 15:06 |
| rtdos | blueskaj, i even went so far as to delete my .kde profile settings. | 15:07 |
| susundberg | is network manager running though? | 15:07 |
| rtdos | yes. | 15:07 |
| rtdos | but i noticed that my laptop now connects to my router at a slower rate (with or without wep activated on the router) | 15:08 |
| BluesKaj | wep or wpa won't slow things down , it's the encryption used by the wifi as security, it's normal | 15:10 |
| rtdos | but what i'm saying is, BluesKaj, even without wep or wpa my laptop seems to connect to my router a lot more slowly than before. is this normal? and do i necessarily need the plasma widget if i am connecting? | 15:12 |
| susundberg | no you do not need that but it makes things easier | 15:13 |
| susundberg | http://linux.die.net/man/8/iwconfig | 15:13 |
| BluesKaj | the plasma widget is default if you're using network manager, you need to for configuring wifi in a GUI | 15:14 |

| veluxes_ | no actually not we solved the no sound issue and im going on to the fullscreen and mp3 to 5.1 | 20:02 |
| veluxes_ | i thought i can solve them both with the xine-thing... | 20:03 |
| veluxes_ | just for my understanding what is the difference between xine (xine-ui,gxine) kaffeine and amarok? | 20:05 |
| veluxes_ | and how can amarok be working fine and the others dont find audio output | 20:06 |
| domux__ | veluxes_: so maybe i hav an idea for the fullscreen | 20:06 |
| veluxes_ | oh cool | 20:06 |
| domux__ | veluxes_: type a sudo gedit(or whatever like kate or kwrite) /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 20:08 |
| genii-around | For KDE graphical apps use kdesu/kdesudo for gnome grphical apps use gksu/gksudo | 20:09 |
| James147 | veluxes_: did you close amarok when testing sound in other applications? | 20:09 |
| veluxes_ | yes | 20:09 |
| James147 | veluxes_: (making sure its not in the system tray) | 20:09 |
| veluxes_ | no its closed | 20:10 |
| veluxes_ | kwrite has some trouble i give you the paste... the conf in kwrite is empty.. | 20:11 |
| bolder_ | n8 | 20:12 |
| domux__ | veluxes_: no need | 20:12 |
| veluxes_ | http://paste.ubuntu.com/553737/ | 20:12 |
| domux__ | veluxes_: do you know how to manipulate vim | 20:13 |
| genii-around | veluxes_: You're getting that error because you used just: sudo | 20:13 |
| domux__ | yea | 20:13 |
| domux__ | kdesudo | 20:14 |
| veluxes_ | oh | 20:14 |
| veluxes_ | ok thx..so what do i do with the xorg.conf? | 20:15 |
| domux__ | veluxes_: alright so find >>Option"AccelMethod" in Section Device | 20:17 |
| domux__ | veluxes_: forgot something very useful when you edit config always make a backup file | 20:19 |
| veluxes_ | where is section device? the file is empty..or do i just type it into the file? | 20:19 |
| domux__ | veluxes_: empty ??? xorg.conf ???!!!! | 20:19 |
| veluxes_ | yes... | 20:20 |
| veluxes_ | not good? | 20:20 |
| domux__ | yea smell too bad | 20:20 |
| James147 | veluxes_: best to renerate a xorg.conf file by running "sudo Xorg -configure" (note, must be done when X isent running) | 20:21 |
| James147 | domux__: no, xorg dosnt require an xorg.conf file any more, and kubuntu no longer supplys one | 20:21 |
| domux__ | James147: really i didn't know that 'cause when i wanted to display a second screen "Twinview mode" i had to edit the xorg.conf | 20:23 |
| veluxes_ | hm ok it seems like X is running...but what is it and where can i shut it? | 20:24 |
| veluxes_ | kill all gdm? | 20:24 |
| genii-around | veluxes_: logout, ctrl-alt-f1, then: sudo service gdm stop then issue the regenerate xorg.conf command previously given. Then: sudo service gdm start and alt-f7 | 20:26 |
| === lunix is now known as Guest5822 | ||
| genii-around | Or use kdm rather in this case | 20:26 |
| James147 | domux__: the nvidia tools create you an xorg.conf file, and xorg will still read it if its present, it just isent needed anymroe | 20:27 |
| === muesli_ is now known as muesli | ||
| woodzy | 2 questions: what is the difference between rekonq and konquerer? the following page is not showing up properly in konquerer (is this place to ask?) - http://www.pogo.com - my view > view mode only shows khtml / advanced text editor / image map editor / text documents / kjot part & klink status part - shouldn't it also show webkit? | 20:31 |
| James147 | woodzy: rekonq and konq are two completely different programs, rekonq, as far as i know, is baised off the qt webkit demo... konq now has two engins, kwebkit and the old khtml... | 20:32 |
| James147 | woodzy: by default (even in 10.10, as far as i know) konq still uses the khtml by default | 20:32 |
| James147 | ^^ | 20:32 |
| domux__ | James147: yea i agree with you but when nvidia tools didn't exist i did it by editing the xorg.conf and now the nvidia tools add the lines for you | 20:32 |
| woodzy | how do i determine or switch which engine konquerer is using? | 20:32 |
| James147 | domux__: xorg use to require a xorg.conf file, it just dosnt anymore | 20:33 |
| James147 | woodzy: first make sure you have kpart-webkit installed | 20:34 |
| domux__ | James147: unless you got recommended driver xorg require xorg.conf | 20:34 |
| James147 | domux__: it dosent require it ^^ almost all cards will now work without one... just some cards will work better if you crete one to configure them | 20:36 |
| woodzy | James147, i can't find it anywhere. sudo apt-get install kpart-webkit says package not found. | 20:36 |
| James147 | woodzy: what version of kde/kubuntu? | 20:37 |
| woodzy | kubuntu 10.10 | 20:37 |
| genii-around | woodzy: Check that universe repo is enabled | 20:37 |
| James147 | woodzy: "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install kpart-webkit" << worked from a clean install :) | 20:39 |
| James147 | (of 10.10) | 20:39 |
| domux__ | woodzy: kde4-config --version to know the kde version | 20:39 |
| woodzy | Qt: 4.7.0 | 20:40 |
| woodzy | KDE Development Platform: 4.5.1 (KDE 4.5.1) | 20:40 |
| woodzy | kde4-config: 1.0 | 20:40 |
| veluxes | ok trouble i think.. i did the logout etc and i have the error [drm] No DRICreatePCIBUSID symbol..number of screens dont match number of detected devices configuration failed | 20:40 |
| James147 | woodzy: also, to view/switch which one you are using at runtime: in konq, View > View Mode > KHTML|webkit | 20:40 |
| woodzy | i only see khmtl james. | 20:41 |
| James147 | woodzy: you can set it as default by editing html in file association in system settings | 20:41 |
| James147 | woodzy: means it isent installed | 20:41 |
| James147 | woodzy: ^^ did you try the above command? | 20:41 |
| woodzy | i'm running the above command now james. | 20:42 |
| domux__ | veluxes: are you sure you have recommended driver installed ? | 20:43 |
| hellslinger | does anyone know what "direct rendering" does differently for KDE desktop effects? Both modes work fine for me but I am curious | 20:43 |
| woodzy | james147: this is the 'error' message i got after the list of 'updates' Failed to fetch http://deb.playonlinux.com/dists/maverick/Release.gpg Something wicked happened resolving 'deb.playonlinux.com:http' (-5 - No address associated with hostname) | 20:44 |
| veluxes | for my sound? in phonon it lists a lot terratec aureon universe 7.1 driver... | 20:44 |
| woodzy | never mind. that's for my playonlinux app. :) | 20:44 |
| woodzy | ok kpart-webkit is installed. | 20:45 |
| James147 | woodzy: now restart konq | 20:46 |
| woodzy | ok. | 20:46 |
| domux__ | hellslinger: google !:p | 20:46 |
| hellslinger | sigh... yeah did that | 20:47 |
| veluxes | maybe i need to combine them? i yesterday som jack combination kid was there too but didnt work | 20:47 |
| hellslinger | was curious if there were any devs who knew exactly what was going on | 20:47 |
| domux__ | hellslinger: so what you got ? | 20:47 |
| woodzy | works. how do i make webkit the default engine for all websites? | 20:47 |
| James147 | woodzy: ^^ you can use view > view mode to change the rendering for that page... and you can open new pages with webkit by changing the html entry in System settings > file association | 20:47 |
| woodzy | ss > fa ? ok, got it. brb. | 20:48 |
| woodzy | got it. | 20:51 |
| woodzy | i see how to change the app under ss > fa but how do i change it to use konquerers webkit engine by default? | 20:51 |
| veluxes | now its missing...jack audio connection kit | 20:57 |
| deadduck_ | Hi | 21:06 |
| deadduck_ | need help to get amarok working http://paste.ubuntu.com/553763/ | 21:08 |
| James147 | deadduck_: you missed the "make" step | 21:09 |
| James147 | NEVER run make as root ^^ which is basically what you did | 21:09 |
| DarthFrog | "make" is kinda important. :-) | 21:09 |
| deadduck_ | i havet don any make command yet | 21:10 |
| deadduck_ | installed amarok with apt-get | 21:10 |
| James147 | deadduck_: also, why are you compiling from source? and not using teh version in the reops? | 21:10 |
| deadduck_ | i get this error ween i start it :P | 21:10 |
| James147 | error? that looks like build commands... | 21:11 |
| deadduck_ | my error message are in swedish so i thought not to post that | 21:11 |
| deadduck_ | but i start amarok | 21:11 |
| deadduck_ | it pops up a windows telling me to do that | 21:11 |
| kaddi | is there a way to play divx videos on kubuntu without installing the gnome stuff (totem, gstreamer, etc) | 21:11 |
| deadduck_ | beacus amarok cant find prefixes | 21:12 |
| deadduck_ | kaddi, vlc ? | 21:12 |
| kaddi | the vlc plugin isn't working for me, at least not when i try to stream something | 21:13 |
| James147 | kaddi: umm, kaffeine should beable to and dragon player (with the codecs, install kubuntu-restricted-extras should pull everything you need) | 21:13 |
| kaddi | James147: so is there a plugin for browser? | 21:14 |
| kaddi | James147: i've erstricted extras installed but can't play divx videos in rekonq or firefox | 21:16 |
| James147 | kaddi: o for browser... umm... i think dragon player can act as one.. at least it dose in rekonq for me | 21:16 |
| James147 | kaddi: can you p[lay them in the normal players? | 21:16 |
| kaddi | i don't know, i don't have any divx videos on the pc | 21:16 |
| kaddi | last time i tried divx was in jaunty and there you had to install half gnome (exageration) to get it to work | 21:17 |
| James147 | kaddi: you should beable to download them form the sites you are tring to view them on :0 | 21:17 |
| kaddi | James147: they're embedded movies, you got a random for download? | 21:18 |
| James147 | kaddi: :S no sorry, | 21:19 |
| kaddi | and download divx movie really isn't returning anything useful on google | 21:19 |
| kaddi | ok, someon link me to a small divx video i can quikcly download for testing purposes pelase >.< | 21:20 |
| kaddi | aegh, sorry that so wasn't meant to go here | 21:21 |
| kaddi | ok, found something and i can play it back in kaffeine fine. How do I get it to play in rekonq too? | 21:27 |

| === mren is now known as mren|off | ||

| Roey | hi | 23:32 |
| Roey | I'm running Kubuntu 10.10 and I get this backtrace from kded4's launch: http://pastebin.com/xWp8Ge6C Which module is it segfaulting on? | 23:33 |
| yofel | it's a solid crash from kded_tablet.so, do you have a tablet pc? | 23:35 |
| Roey | I have a wacom tablet, yeah | 23:36 |
| Roey | is there some package I can remove so that kded4 (and my keyboard settings that I've configured) can work again? | 23:37 |
| Roey | yofel: see above | 23:37 |
| yofel | apt-file says the lib belongs to kde-config-tablet, so removing that would probably make it not crash | 23:39 |
| yofel | which KDE version? | 23:40 |
| Roey | 4.5.95 | 23:41 |
| Roey | and it's a known issue: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=252743 | 23:41 |
| ubottu | KDE bug 252743 in general "Wacom Tablet kded module crashed" [Crash,Resolved: fixed] | 23:41 |
| Roey | in fact, that last comment there is mine with my own stack trace | 23:41 |
| Roey | wow | 23:42 |
| Roey | yofel: that worked out perfeectly | 23:43 |
| Roey | thank you so much!! | 23:43 |
| Roey | ::) | 23:43 |
| Roey | god | 23:43 |
| Roey | that ends months of madness right there | 23:43 |
