[00:00] <DarthFrog> I'm not a programmer so I don't know for sure but I *think* you need to use a ";" to comment out a line.
[00:00] <mandla> DarthFrog: Thanx man. I will keep on trying
[00:02] <dan08> try: "sudo apt-get install libapache2-mod-php5" that should solve it :D
[00:18] <dan08> hey can someone help me??
[00:19] <DarthFrog> !ask | dan08
[01:30] <Kulitorum> Woops, I removed the application launcher - how do I get it back?

[01:51] <KimLaroux> Hhhmm, that's weird... Kpakagekit stopped automatic updates, I just manually checked and I have some 30 critical upgrades to do... Anyone else had that problem?
[01:51] <the_bait_ut> nope, but you can do that from command line
[01:52] <the_bait_ut> do you know how?
[01:52] <the_bait_ut> ??????
[01:53] <Fanfare> the_bait_ut: sudo apt-get update followed by sudo apt-get upgrade
[01:53] <the_bait_ut> cool, fine...
[01:54] <KimLaroux> I know how to do so... duh... that's beside the point
[01:55] <the_bait_ut> so try that, because there was recent update of that package i guess, maybe it will fix that

[06:57] <Guest46599> Question ... in Kopete, when I select a dark scheme for the chat window, it doesn't change the text input area.
[07:10] <DouglasK> Let's retry that with a real nick  :)
[07:10] <DouglasK> Question ... in Kopete, when I select a dark scheme for the chat window, it doesn't change the text input area.
[07:12] <dereine> personally i think the best way to achieve a dark schema is to use the invert effect :)
[07:14] <DouglasK> Hm... I'd not thought about it.
[07:15] <DouglasK> I might just do that.
[07:21] <DouglasK> Still ... I gotta wonder if that's as designed, or if it's a bug.
[07:22] <DouglasK> As designed - enhancement request, low priority.  Bug - asthetic, maybe not quite so low.
[07:54] <Tm_T> DouglasKAway: the input area is separate from chat style currently (and please no awaynicks)
[08:02] <DouglasK> Tm_T: thanks for the heads up on the nick.
[08:02] <DouglasK> Tm_T: is there a way to change the input area's colours?
[08:03] <Tm_T> DouglasK: yes, but cannot remember exactly how, sorry
[08:04] <DouglasK> No worries ... just knowing it is possible means it's worth doing the work to find out how.  :)
[08:40] <ox3a> Hello
[08:41] <ox3a> Someone can help me editing menu?
[08:41] <ox3a> pls?
[08:43] <dereine> kmenuedit
[08:43] <ox3a> dereine, I doing another way
[08:44] <ox3a> Trying make linux kde base distro and thats why i need to add my extra own menu in mounted iso
[08:45] <ox3a> Perhaps need to edit manually or command line dereine
[08:47] <ox3a> dereine, Any way?
[08:51] <bigbrovar> ox3a: are u trying to add an item to the menu? or u want to rearrange an item? and I guess you want this to be systemwide?
[08:52] <ox3a> bigbrovar, Add item and rearrange both but very important adding item
[08:55] <bigbrovar> ox3a: u can always use kmenuedit. but your changes would not be systemwide. one way to make them systemwide is to edit the menu entry by hand from /usr/share/applications
[08:56] <bigbrovar> ox3a: AFAIK the menu entry is a freedesktop standard which is followed by all desktop environment.
[08:57] <bigbrovar> u can u can always create a *.desktop using any .desktop file as a guild on how it should be structured.
[09:03] <ox3a> dereine, How can i add item there(i know menu configuration is exist in ~/.config/menus
[09:06] <ox3a> dereine, Can you give me a simple example please( it will systemwide and my own distro)
[09:07] <ox3a> ?
[09:15] <ox3a> in /usr/share/applications all are exec apps but not directory. I need to add a directory/folder item and a lot of sub menu under the directory/folder
[10:57] <chris____> hi
[11:26] <Guest28203> xbins
[12:06] <javier_> hi to everybody. Im in a big problem, maybe with no solution. I had an important .odt paper in my harddrive and, somehow, i've lost it (I mean, it's empty now). I hoping there is something in Kubuntu similar to Windows "restore system to a previous state", but i certainly doubt and cannot find any application like that. So, I looking for help restoring that file or confirmation that there is anything to do. Thanks!
[12:15] <foormea> hi
[12:16] <foormea> i don't get it, with 10.10, i'm telling kopete to show in systray, but it just won't show
[12:23] <lesley> hi i have a problem, i just activated my gfx drivers on ubuntu, when i reboot it says 'fatal server error: no screens found'
[12:26] <rork> foormea: did you check the hidden trayicons?
[12:27] <foormea> rork: yeah. checked in kopete and systray
[12:28] <foormea> tried checking with/without the messaging systray thinggy
[12:28] <foormea> doesn't change a thing
[12:30] <xmichael91> hi all. my x server fails to start when I start up kubuntu. but then normally starts with startx cmd. what is the reason?
[12:32] <xmichael91> soon I installed ati drivers.
[12:35] <davraychr> Greetings!  I just tried to use KTorrent to download all of WIkileaks, which gives a torrent for each file (4 thousand something torrents in all). This didn't go well, and I ended up with a ton of jobs showing up in my notifications area.  Is there a good way to clear those out withjout clicking the little X one at a time?
[12:36] <davraychr> like for example a file where they are stored? grepping .kde for a bunch of patterns yielded nothing
[12:39] <xmichael91> is there anybody who use kubuntu with ATI mobility radeon videocard?
[12:46] <rork> !anybody | xmichael91
[12:46] <rork> oh, sorry you did ask before

[15:05] <Bazaar> Hi everyone, should I use Kubuntu 32 or 64 on my Core 2 Duo iMac?
[15:06] <Bazaar> the 32-bit version would work, but just up to around 3.5 GB of RAM, right?
[15:11] <Bazaar> nobody here?
[15:13] <Bazaar> are you ignoring me on purpose or something?
[15:14] <DarthFrog> Or perhaps nobody has an answer for you.  It happens.
[15:15] <Bazaar> I see, but null is differerent from "" if you know what I mean ...
[15:16] <DarthFrog> It's also early in the morning (well, it is here).  Folks might not be up yet.  Or sufficiently caffeinated to be firing on all cylinders.
[15:17] <Bazaar> But there are around 250 people in this chatroom ... or are they all just idleing?
[15:18] <DarthFrog> At the most active times, there might be 3 or 4 threads going.  It varies. A lot.
[15:19] <Bazaar> Well, as you might noticed, I am not very often in IRC, therefore I do not really know how it regularly goes.
[15:19] <Bazaar> Would you happen to know how I can disable the displac of the "xy joined" messaged in Pidgin?
[15:19] <DarthFrog> Leave the window open all day and see what goes on?
[15:19] <mendred> hi..on kubuntu 10.10 in network manager > edit network connection, the "System connection" checkbox is disabled by default..is there anyway to enable this? I would like to create system wide wireless connections so that network manager connects on boot startup rather than waiting for login
[15:19] <DarthFrog> Sorry.  I use Konversation.
[15:19] <Bazaar> np
[15:20] <Bazaar> are you a sudoer?
[15:21] <Bazaar> @DarthFrog: Can one disable that in Konversation?
[15:21] <DarthFrog> mendred: I don't know the specific answer to your question using Network Manager.  But I would do it using wpa_supplicant and the /etc/network/interfaces file manually.
[15:22] <DarthFrog> Bazaar: Yeah, it's easy to do in Konversation.  It's in one of the Settings.  I have it turned off.
[15:22] <Bazaar> apt-get install konversation it is then :D
[15:22] <mendred> DarthFrog: Ok thanks :)...i was trying to get it in networkmanager instead of installing wpa_Supplicant
[15:23] <DarthFrog> mendred: AFAIK, if you use networkmanager, you can store the passwords in Kwallet.  But you'll still have to give your password to Kwallet when logging in after booting.
[15:24] <DarthFrog> But my knowledge is limited in that area, sorry.
[15:24] <mendred> DarthFrog: Ok thanks!
[15:25] <DarthFrog> mendred: Come back later on when more people might be active and ask again.  I'd be interested in the full answer also.
[15:25] <bzr2> hmm, konversation seems a little more techy than pidgin ...
[15:26] <DarthFrog> Is pidgin a GNOME app?
[15:26] <mendred> DarthFrog: yeah will do..am googling this...and it seems there is way..but that the kde applet for nm doesnt have this enabled...so may have to use the gnome applet instead :)
[15:27] <Bazaar> DarthFrog: I am not too sure, but I believe that it is standard on Gnome. Kopete is the standard for KDE I believe. The scrollbars do not look like oxygen, but rather like the odd ones in firefox.
[15:28] <DarthFrog> Does Kopete do IRC now?
[15:28] <Tm_T> DarthFrog: nope
[15:29] <DarthFrog> Tm_T: That's what I thought.
[15:29] <fenix777> ????? ????! ? ubuntu ???????
[15:29] <Bazaar> okay, so Konversation and Kopete does the same on KDE than Pidgin does on Gome together
[15:29] <DarthFrog> Another KDE IRC app is Quassel.
[15:30] <Bazaar> or you go leet with xchat :D
[15:30] <DarthFrog> Kvirc is still available.
[15:30] <Tm_T> there's tons of irc-clients, Kubuntu's default is currently Quassel
[15:30] <DarthFrog> You might even get mIRC running under wine. :-)
[15:31] <bzr2> I think I will settle with Konversation: blends into KDE, has this nice purple line and I can ignore all the join/kick/idontcare messages
[15:31] <bzr2> wine ...
[15:31] <bzr2> c'mon
[15:32] <geekosopher> irssi all the way
[15:32] <bzr2> well, that sounds like I got to spend a weekend trying IRC clients, huh?
[15:32] <DarthFrog> Choice is good!
[15:32] <Tm_T> !irc
[15:33] <DarthFrog> bzr2: Personally, I'd suggest picking one and learning it inside and out.
[15:33] <bzr2> yeah, that is the same way I did not start with git besides bzr, but rather leaning the guts of bazaar a little better
[15:35] <bzr2> Apple's Time Machine just tricked me badly: It showed xx GB of 39,9 GB all the time. Now it just says 40.8 of 40.8 GB ...
[15:38] <BluesKaj> bzr2, if you're interested , konversation is the best irc client for kubuntu , IMO and experience
[15:39] <bzr> I just have tried xchat, pidgin and konverstation, and the latter (or former, I am not sure about my english here) seems to be quite good.
[15:41] <BluesKaj> yeah bzr, xchat is sort of ok , but's a windows app ported to linux and it's clunky IMO ...konversation on the other hand is clean and simple
[15:41] <DarthFrog> "Latter" would refer to Konversation.  "Former" would be ambiguous, perhaps referring to either xchat or pidgin or maybe both.
[15:43] <bzr> Thanks, so "latter" means the last of an enumeration, "former" one but the last?
[15:53] <frank_> hi! where can i get help if i have problems with xboard?
[15:58] <bzr> what kind of problem do you have with it?
[15:59] <rats__> frank_: you might be able to find something here http://www.gnu.org/software/xboard/
[16:00] <frank_> rats__: ok, thanks. that may help.
[16:01] <rats__> your welcome
[16:02] <pingusman> in the login srceen appears "Fri 14 January 2:07 AM" how can change to appears "Friday 14 January 2011  14:07:10" (KDM) ?
[16:02] <pingusman> command  date  "+%A %d %Y  %T"  in bash give me wishing results
[16:03] <pingusman> in the xml file of the theme KDM write "<text>%c</text>" what must change ?
[16:08] <bazaar> I assume that you might just have to replace %c with %A %d %Y  %T
[16:19] <sithlord48> sup fellow kubuntu users?
[16:19] <pingusman> bazaar:  If only it were so easy
[16:22] <bazaar> isn't %c just the short for a complete date? Or was that %r?
[16:22] <bazaar> bzw, is it normal that the installer for Kubuntu 10.10 takes a lot of time after the preparation screen?
[16:58] <mendred> DarthFrog: found the workaround..but it involves using nm-applet
[16:59] <mendred> DarthFrog: so i guess this means that networkmanager can handle connections at startup..but some reason the kde network manager applet cant handle it...
[17:01] <DarthFrog>  mendred Glad to hear you got it working.
[17:04] <bzr> how can I change the monitor and display setup at startup/login?
[17:16] <sre-su> How to set default media player in KDE/Kubunt? System Settings> default Applications doesn't contain such options
[17:27] <arge> 2 questions -- 1 i installed 10.10 on toshiba a200 and when it boots/shutdown there is no kubuntu screen - just a blue console with text in it
[17:28] <arge> 2 i gets really hot
[17:28] <arge> 2 it gets really hot
[17:36] <cedric_> peace
[17:43] <bzr> arge: Maybe linux does not recognize the acpi stuff which controls the fans and so on. But I am definitly no expert on that.
[17:43] <arge> bzr: hmm
[17:44] <bzr> I do have the same blue console on my iMac where I just installed 10.10 after I installed the ATI driver
[17:45] <arge> bzr: i see mine after nvidia
[17:45] <arge> bzr: and there no other problems?
[17:45] <arge> bzr: just wondering if it's a bad install

[18:48] <vanguard> the sound of my ALC889 card is very faint -- what can I do?
[19:13] <jschall> ktorrent doesn't suppress sleep when torrents are running, even though i have the box checked. i googled and found a bug for the issue, but it was an old, fixed bug. any thoughts? using kubuntu 10.10 with kubuntu-ppa for latest version of KDE.
[19:21] <jschall> additionally, ps3mediaserver can't suppress suspend either
[19:27] <vanguard> What can I do when my ALC889 sound output is like -12db too faint?
[20:16] <hotwings> anyone happen to know exactly how big a base install of kubuntu 10.10 is?
[20:17] <cameleon> The installer says 2.3GB
[20:19] <hotwings> thanks cameleon
[20:19] <cameleon> np
[20:20] <hotwings> needed to know if i should go grab a 16GB sdhc, or use one of the 8GB ones i have laying around
[20:21] <Wenzel__> hello, I have installed Kubuntu 10.10 on a netbook, i've installed the bc43 driver and the wifi doesn't work, but it works on ubuntu on the same netbook
[20:22] <Wenzel__> the interface looks "waiting for authorization" then "configuring interface" and then nothing
[20:31] <vanguard> did you enter the password?
[20:33] <Wenzel____> yes
[20:33] <Wenzel____> it is encrypted in WPA
[20:33] <Wenzel____> and I entered the correct password, many times
[20:34] <PhilRod> Wenzel____: I've had problems if I put in an incorrect password the first time, then it appears to ignore the correct ones i type in later. I had to delete the connection and recreate it
[20:34] <PhilRod> fwiw...
[20:35] <nerdy_kid> Wenzel____: maybe try changing the network password, I have heard that did it for some people
[20:35] <Wenzel____> ok I'll try

[20:51] <Daskreech> Oj
[21:01] <Daskreech> Cannot handle "host" cmdline arg `www.google.com' on position 1
[21:01] <Daskreech> anyone has any idea what would cause that error?
[21:01] <Tm_T> in where?
[21:01] <Tm_T> oh, right
[21:01] <Daskreech> Tm_T: CLI
[21:02] <Tm_T> Daskreech: I don't know how you get "host" to spit that kind of error, I tried but failed
[21:02] <Daskreech> Tm_T: That's from traceroute
[21:03] <Daskreech> but if I run w3m or anything else I'll get somethign similar
[21:03] <Daskreech> ip addresses work fine
[21:03] <Daskreech> Names work with a ping command however
[21:03] <Tm_T> Daskreech: try retyping the url?
[21:06] <Daskreech> Tm_T: What command are you running?
[21:10] <Tm_T> Daskreech: traceroute
[21:26] <Daskreech> Tm_T: Works fine with a IP address?
[21:30] <hotwings> is there any way to select what gets installed with kubuntu?  i dont need/want about 90% of the junk and would rather not have to bother uninstalling it if it cant -not- be installed in the first place
[21:32] <James147_> hotwings: not easly... you might want to consider a distro like arch, where you build and configure it from the ground up
[21:33] <hotwings> ive only ever used debian testing without a desktop/gui.. originally had thought installed base debian and then kde or gnome would be ok but i was told its a huge mess trying to do that and you cant simply install kde and get everything.. you'd have to install all the components separately.. seems really lame but ..................
[21:36] <James147_> hotwings: afraid if you want a streamline install your going to need to need to install allot of things manually... or uninstall them (but working from the group up is easier)
[21:37] <James147_> hotwings: ^^ i suggest you look at arch, they have plenty of documentation and isent to hard to build up the system you want using that
[21:38] <FloridaGuy> useing 64 bit kubuntu 10.10..installed the latest virtualbox in the repo....trying to run sabayon from virtualbox...and its saying....This kernel requires an x86-64 cpu, but only detected an i686 cpu..?
[21:40] <James147_> FloridaGuy: seems the vm is set to 32bit ^^ as far as I know virtualbox can emulate a 64bit (if running on a 64bit), but you might need to tell it to when you create the vm
[21:41] <FloridaGuy> James147_: k
[21:50] <hotwings> thanks James147_, will look into it
[21:55] <Daskreech> Tm_T: Fixed it! ^_^
[21:56] <Daskreech> hotwings: Install the Kubuntu server then install what you want
[21:57] <Tm_T> Daskreech: ah good, what was it?
[21:58] <Daskreech> Tm_T: My DNS server was disappearing intermittenly I moved the DNS to a closer server and it works fine now
[21:58] <Daskreech> Now to break it again :)
[21:59] <Tm_T> nice
[22:24] <Daskreech> can I use IPtables to do a local port switch?
[22:24] <Daskreech> have a server listen on a port then have IPtables expose a different port on the network?
[22:32] <Toast__> I'm having a problem with really really laggy response from some KDE apps, for example Kmail or Kate and would appreciate some help debugging the problem. I'm running 10.10 with nvidia driver on a 3 core AMD with 4GB ram. It's hard to track down the cause as the problem comes and goes.
[22:32] <Toast__> Most recently when I had a problem, X was taking about 50% of one of my cores and firefox was using about 20%. Closing firefox removed the problem, but opening it again with the same number of tags didn't bring the problem back.
[22:32] <Toast__> Have any of you seen a problem like that?
[22:35] <Daskreech> Toast: what's your definition of a laggy response?
[22:36] <Toast> Daskreech: I type a sentence and look up to find only two words on the screen, letters appearing slowly in front of my eyes, or move the scroll bar with my mouse and have a wait a second before the application responds.
[22:37] <Daskreech> can you run top or ksysguard to see if it's CPU bound?
[22:37] <James147_> Toast: are you useing dual screen?
[22:38] <Toast> I've tried htop and generally seem to have plenty of cpu, though at it's worst, X can be taking quite a lot of one of the cores.
[22:38] <Toast> James147_:  I have used dual screen in the past. Currently I have 1 screen connected, but I may still be configured for two.
[22:38] <Daskreech> do you have desktop effects turned on?
[22:39] <James147_> Toast: ^^ i would make sure its configured as one and your not useing xinerama (caused horrffic lag for me when i was useing it similar to what you have)
[22:40] <Toast> Daskreech: Desktop effects are turned off.
[22:40] <Toast> James147_: I will be putting my second monitor back on soon... Lets see what the setup prog says...
[22:41] <James147_> Toast: i suggest taht when you do, use twinview instead of seperate screens
[22:41] <Toast> James147_: Will do.
[23:03] <ryrych> hello
[23:03] <ryrych> could you tell me the paths where Kubuntu is looking for autostart?
[23:04] <James147_> ryrych: ~/.kde/Autostart is one...
[23:06] <James147_> /usr/share/autostart is probaly another
[23:06] <ryrych> James147: do you know which is used when I set autostart in system settings?
[23:06] <James147_> ryrych: the one in ~/.kde
[23:09] <yofel> there's also ~/.config/autostart/, but I don't know where that is used
[23:10] <ryrych> James147: recently I started to run kwin with some parameters (in autostart as a script). But the entry is no longer there. Regrettably while start-up screen is flickering as if the script from autostart was used. Is it possible the script is kept elesewhere?
[23:11] <ryrych> and that it is still run during start?
[23:12] <James147_> ryrych: only place i know of that kde touchs is ~/.kde/Autostart.. though I seem to ahve a ~/.kde/share/autostart as well :S  ^^ and there is the one yofel said, but as far as I know kde dosent use that (though I am probally wrong :) )
[23:12] <ryrych> yofel: wait, probably it is what I'm looking for :)
[23:12] <yofel> I know gnome uses it, but kde doesn't list what I have there so I'm unsure
[23:14] <ryrych> yofel: yeah! KDE's system settings use it. And there is my guilty :D
[23:15] <James147_> Think kde uses the one listed in - System settings > Account details > Paths
[23:16] <ryrych> James147: I looked up there and there is ~/.kde/Autostart listed there. But all entries from system settings were placed in .config/Autostart
[23:17] <James147_> ryrych: hmm, weird
[23:18] <ryrych> maybe all my probs with desktop effects will go away :D
[23:19] <ryrych> thank you guys, at least I can count on kubuntu channel - it is not possible on ubuntu one because of message flood :)
[23:20] <ryrych> bye for now!
