[00:04] <Roasted> How does Kubuntu 10.10 fair on standard netbook hardware? Meaning single core atom 1.6ghz etc?
[00:04] <james147> Roasted: works fine on my eee pc :)
[00:05] <Roasted> james147, good deal. I havent used kubuntu since kde 4.2, which was still kind of.. well let's not go there. Willing to give it another shot though :P
[00:05] <james147> kde has improved ALLOT since 4.2
[00:05] <Roasted> doing the liveusb thing now, just waiting for it to complete
[00:06] <Roasted> yeah, but at the time so many people talked up 4.2 to be amazing, when it uh. wasn't. at all.
[00:06] <Roasted> has me semi skeptical :P
[00:06] <james147> Roasted: ^^ i mean when compaired to kde 4.2, 4.5 is allot better
[00:06] <Roasted> is 4.5 on 10.10?
[00:06] <Roasted> or are you using a PPA?
[00:06] <james147> yes
[00:06] <Roasted> good deal
[00:06] <Roasted> 4.6 is the new guy then?
[00:07] <james147> 4.6rc2 is in a ppa as well
[00:07] <Roasted> ah k.
[00:07] <Roasted> yeah I'm curious. I made an image backup of Ubuntu 10.10 just in case with clonezilla. Never know :P
[00:07] <Roasted> since this netbook is a screw around toy I figured I would utilize it to see what other netbook distros out there fair well.
[00:07] <Roasted> I just tried jolicloud but the whole cloud thing is pretty laughable in my opinion, but it was such a nice interface though.
[00:07]  * james147 notes that you can install kubuntu-desktop inside ubuntu and efficivly have both on one partition
[00:08] <Roasted> been there, done that
[00:08] <Roasted> maaaaaaajor mess.
[00:08] <Roasted> much easier to just have two independent partitions, one ubuntu, one kubuntu, that share the same home directory.
[00:11] <Roasted> seems as if kubuntu has frozen in the process of booting it up in a live environment. not a good start...
[00:14] <Roasted> froze again...
[00:20] <Roasted> formatted the flash drive, installed kubuntu 10.10 onto flash drive again, third time attempting boot - froze again
[00:20] <Roasted> such a shame I can't even try kubuntu on a netbook. IT won't fricken boot.
[00:23] <Roasted> well, I tried kubuntu. you failed me again. Bye guys. :(
[00:24] <isaias> hi, kubuntu 10.10 has a good Dock?
[00:25] <james147> isaias: what do you mean by dock?
[00:25] <isaias> like the avant windows navigator that i used to have in ubuntu
[00:26] <james147> isaias: dont use ubuntu so i dont know what that is...
[00:26] <bhargava> Hi can some one help use the ctags plugin that comes with kate
[00:27] <bhargava> it does create the tags file but does not load the tags in the tags tab in the ctags window
[00:49] <Goliath> hola
[00:49] <Goliath>  i exracted a 7z archive withe right click extract here option. Can i be sure it was extracted without errors?
[00:59] <rtdos> is there a way to open windows' *.url files in firefox that are located on a network drive? everytime i try to open them with firefox, firefox wants to download them.
[01:03] <Ash-Fox> rtdos, I think theres a handler for that included in crossover from codeweavers
[01:42] <rtdos> codeweavers?
[01:43] <randomperson8356> hello?
[01:43] <james147> hello randomperson8356
[01:44] <randomperson8356> how do i find different networks to connect to?
[01:45] <james147> wireless?
[01:45] <randomperson8356> no chat networks
[01:45] <randomperson8356> pretty new to irc and linux
[01:45] <james147> not sure about networks :) would need to look on google for irc networks...
[01:45] <randomperson8356> ok thanks
[01:46] <james147> randomperson8356: /list   however will list all channels on the network
[01:46] <james147> ^^
[01:46]  * james147 should have started with that one
[02:16] <Pomeroy> Hi guys
[02:16] <james147> Hello Pomeroy
[02:16] <Pomeroy> I typed "init 5" in command.exe, and it looks to me like it's broken my colour capsules or something, any ideas?
[02:17] <james147> command.exe?
[02:17] <Pomeroy> Somebody on 4chan told me to do it.
[02:17] <Pomeroy> Maybe it was terminal.ini...I'm not exactly sure.
[02:17] <james147> dont listen to anyone on 4chan...
[02:21]  * james147 is disappointed in quality trolls today....
[02:22] <KimLaroux> lol!
[03:00]  * rtdos laughs ex-hub-er-ently
[03:06] <Daskreech> rtdos: aspell?
[04:49] <egossett> join ubuntu-us
[04:49] <Daskreech> Never!!
[05:19] <juankrlos> i need help for to limit cpu frequency in kubuntu 10.04
[05:24] <Daskreech> BIOS?
[05:26] <james147> juankrlos: why limit it?
[05:28] <setuid> How do I stop users from being listed in kdm?
[05:28] <setuid> I've tried dozens of themes, but it always shows a list, even though I've unchecked "Show list" in the KDM config screen under the "Users" tab
[05:28] <juankrlos> because the temperature is  high (sometimes)
[05:29] <yofel> you can use cpufreq-selector to set governor and frequency
[05:30] <yofel> (needs to be done seperately for every core)
[05:30] <setuid> yofel, s/separately/independently/
[05:30] <yofel> er, right
[05:31] <yofel> though I think cpufreq-set can also do all at once, but I never tried that
[05:32]  * james147 suggest looking into getting better cooling ^^
[05:32] <james147> (as well)
[05:32] <yofel> won't help if it's a notebook ;) (though yes, that too if possible)
[05:32]  * setuid uses a little script to overclock the fan on his Thinkpads
[05:32] <james147> yofel: yeah :(  ...
[05:33] <setuid> # head -2 /proc/acpi/ibm/fan
[05:33] <setuid> status:         enabled
[05:33] <setuid> speed:          5068
[05:33] <james147> yofel: still worth a look, nothing worst then underclocking your computer
[05:33] <james147> (well, except maby it melting ... )
[05:33] <setuid> undervolting your laptop on the other hand, has HUGE advantages
[05:34] <yofel> setuid: how would you do that? (if there's no bios setting)
[05:34] <setuid> yofel, I do it on all of my Thinkpads... it's straightforward
[05:34] <setuid> Some info here: http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Pentium_M_undervolting_and_underclocking
[05:35] <setuid> There's probably others for other laptop models as well (assuming Intel and/or AMD cpus, of course)
[05:35] <setuid> Not sure about netbooks, ATOM processors and the link
[05:35] <setuid> s/link/likes
[05:35] <james147> though atoms have a decent power consumption so there is les sof an advantage :)
[05:36] <setuid> Right, and that's where the other tricks come into play (disable usb wakeup, etc.)
[05:36] <setuid> powertop can help there
[05:36] <yofel> yeah, but you can't really underclock atoms, that's pretty much shutting them down
[05:36] <setuid> underclock != undervolt
[05:36] <setuid> They're very different
[05:37] <yofel> I know, undervolt might be possible
[05:37] <setuid> You can run your CPU at 5V, 2.4Ghz, or 3.8V, 2.4Ghz
[05:37] <yofel> and powertop *is* useful
[05:37]  * setuid fights with kdm, and refuses to give up 
[05:37] <yofel> the kdm kcm doesn't work for that?
[05:38] <setuid> it's ignoring most of what I choose for settings, they appear selected/checked or unselected/unchecked in the config, so they SHOULD be working, but they're not
[05:38] <setuid> Could be an Ubuntu 11.04 buglet, one of about 3 dozen I've found and documented in the last 8 hours
[05:39] <juankrlos> :) oki, cpufreq-selector
[05:43]  * setuid is an idiot... why would I be looking in the 'Users' tab for user-specific configuration options, of COURSE it's in the "Convenience" tab, where it's completely unrelated... *smacks forehead* 
[05:44] <setuid> woop, found a bug there too... damn
[05:45] <setuid> If you pass a username and incorrect password, it recycles the login dialog, but now the username is cached there
[08:56] <anihilat> hey, anyone know something how to handel with k3b wodim error while burning ISO on CD ?
[09:10] <iulian> hi all
[09:14] <antonio_> ciao
[09:18] <naftilos76> hi everyone, i have an IP camera which i can access through its' web interface and configure it to save still images when motion is detected to an ftp server etc. I have been able to get a video preview through vlc by accessing the camera's ip like this: http://192.168.1.100/videostream.cgi . The video stream is compressed in MJPEG according to vlc video properties menu. I want to save that video stream to a hd but i don't know how. Can
[09:18] <naftilos76> anyone help?
[09:22] <valorie> naftilos76: you might find more knowledgeable people in #videolan , which is the VLC channel
[09:22] <naftilos76> valorie: thanks
[09:29] <valorie> good luck!
[09:40] <dennister> hey there, anyone awake?
[09:41] <james147> dennister: there are many people awake
[09:43] <dennister> wonderful...middle of night here and I'm frustrated like there's no tomorrow :) 2 problems: my geforce 210 card and network dying too often
[09:44] <dennister> last night all of a sudden xorg didn't work, and while I did install proprietary drivers for this card once before, I can't find how to do it anymore?
[09:45] <james147> dennister: run "hardware driver" (or launch jockey-kde from terminal) that is the best way to install them
[09:46] <dennister> nor can I find the link I used before  by googling...
[09:46] <valorie> dennister: http://www.nvidia.com/object/product_geforce_210_us.html ?
[09:46] <dennister> valorie: ty
[09:46] <valorie> oh, sorry
[09:46] <valorie> james147 is much more knowledgeable than I am
[09:47] <dennister> james147: i think your advice is for a newer version than mine...I'm using hardy
[09:47] <james147> why are you useing hardy?
[09:47] <dennister> james147: do you have all night? long story
[09:48] <james147> its almost 10am here :p
[09:48] <dennister> heheh...4:48 am here, and if I start on the hardy-v-newer versions I'll never get anything else done
[09:49] <james147> well, i cant help you with that version, its far to old for me to remember what it was like
[09:50] <dennister> james147: k, gotcha, thx for your willingness
[09:50] <dennister> anyone elseknow how do i install newer proprietary nvidia drivers for this geforce 210 card on hardy?
[09:51] <dennister> 800 x 600 resolution isn't going to cut it here
[10:02] <dennister> !nvidia
[10:07] <dennister> anyone know how to actually run the nvidia....run file?
[10:08] <james147> ./nameoffile.run
[10:08] <james147> ^^ might need sudo
[10:08] <james147> probally does
[10:08]  * james147 also think you have to stop X first
[10:08] <dennister> yes...to install anything
[10:08] <dennister> that's right...now it's coming back to me...I think
[10:09] <dennister> bbs
[10:25] <chiiiiiz> hello
[10:25] <chiiiiiz> small problem: when logging in, the plasma desktop waits for my kwallet password to display the desktop. I think it appeared after an update..
[10:26] <chiiiiiz> Before, I only needed the kwallet password for Kontact or Amarok...
[10:26] <chiiiiiz> any idea?
[10:26] <james147> chiiiiiz: do you have any widgets taht might store a password?
[10:26] <chiiiiiz> Hi, James14
[10:27] <rork> chiiiiiz: any drives automatically mounting?
[10:28] <chiiiiiz> I have on the desktop the Trash, a widget that displays the free space available for my mount points and disks, the Google Translator, the Plasmacon terminal, and 2 folderviews
[10:29] <chiiiiiz> Yes, I modified my fstab a long time ago, long before the problem appeared...
[10:29] <chiiiiiz> Everytyhing was configured like it is now long before this problem appeared...
[10:31] <chiiiiiz> some network mountpoints use the cifs filesystem, since the folder to be mounted are on a W2003 Server machine.
[10:33] <chiiiiiz> On the right click on Plasma there is a command I do not understand... Between "Execute a command" and "lock/unlock the plamoids"... In french it is called "Agencements", arrangements in english
[10:34] <chiiiiiz> I have 3 of them, not named... that I do not know about... maybe this locks Plasma somewhere... Where can I remove them, what is their use?
[10:37] <valorie> chiiiiiz: maybe those are the Activities?
[10:38] <valorie> that's new, you can organize your different desktops into different activities
[10:38] <chiiiiiz> I guess so. What is their use? I never used them, but I may have browsed into them, and changed things that require the password.
[10:38] <valorie> News is the only one that comes to mind
[10:39] <chiiiiiz> I have 3 of them... but I do not see the use. How can I remove them?
[10:39] <valorie> so you could group activities that you normally do, all together
[10:39] <valorie> I just ignore them, until i put them to use
[10:39] <valorie> how are they in the way of anything?
[10:39] <chiiiiiz> I must add, I am most used to work under Gnome... KDE is quite recen,t for me...
[10:39] <valorie> sorry, I don't know anything about gnome
[10:39] <chiiiiiz> Sorry, I did not understand your last post?
[10:40] <valorie> drives me nuts to have to work in it
[10:40] <valorie> lol
[10:40] <valorie> why get rid of them? what harm are they doing?
[10:40] <hammer> anyone who nows a console tool to display current joystick positions!?
[10:40] <chiiiiiz> No, that okay, just to add that KDE is not my cup of tea so far... lost of things I still do not know about it...
[10:41] <valorie> it isn't for everyone, that's true
[10:41] <valorie> everyone should use what they like
[10:41] <chiiiiiz> ah, I thought maybe these"Activities" require a kwallet password... and explain the fact that I have this password asked before Plasma starts, which recent... and annoying
[10:41] <valorie> no, I don't think so
[10:42] <valorie> they might be lockable, such as a Business activity, which you would want passworded
[10:42] <valorie> or Banking
[10:42] <chiiiiiz> and so thought I may have to erase them in order to retrieve my former desktop conf... and no password before I start Kontact or Amarok
[10:42] <valorie> well, the reason you want a pw for Amarok is to access the web services
[10:43] <valorie> such as Last.fm, Magnatunes, etc.
[10:43] <valorie> if you don't use any web services, then you need no pw
[10:51] <chiiiiiz> agreed... I use them, and a mysql database also.
[10:53] <valorie> oh, an external db?
[10:53] <valorie> then yes, you have to give a PW one way or another
[10:53] <valorie> I prefer kwallet, since it's just once instead of over and over
[11:01] <chiiiiiz> I understand that Amarok, or Kontact may need the Kwallet passwd, but I still do not see why Plasma required it... Thanks anyway
[11:10] <valorie> chiiiiiz: it isn't that plasma requires it, but security
[11:11] <valorie> I believe you can set up your login to be without password, although I don't know how to do that
[11:11] <valorie> and since I have a laptop, I wouldn't do it
[11:11] <valorie> but that's up to you
[11:22] <JohnFlux> I did a normal apt-get upgrade   and now I have screen corruption etc
[11:22] <JohnFlux> It's mostly minor, but for example the colors in the toolbox thing in the bottom right are all wrong
[11:25] <chiiiiiz> understood... but I won't. THanks
[11:31] <iulian_> maybe something on sytem settings there you can change password and other options
[11:49] <davour> I have a problem adding contacts to my address book in kmail, since I have more than one std.vcf file. Akonadi tray applet say so, kmail say so. Looking in the .kde/share/apps/kabc  I claim it isn't so. Any idea how to make all parts agree?
[11:58] <ecinx> how do i play an AVI file from the web?
[11:58] <ecinx> http://cslibrary.stanford.edu/104/
[12:03] <mndo> ecinx, mplayer http://www.cs.stanford.edu/cslibrary/PointerFunPreview.avi
[12:05] <ecinx> ok, thanks.. how do i pause apt-get dist-upgrade so i can download mplayer?
[12:05] <ecinx> is it safe to do ctrl -c?
[12:06] <t3rminat0r> how may I copy an already pre-configured eclipse from one other box to my machine?
[12:06] <t3rminat0r> [it came already with a distribution]
[12:13] <davour> ecinx: You wait
[12:13] <ecinx> ok
[12:20] <mndo> ecinx, unless you're still downloading it's better to wait
[12:21] <mndo> ecinx, but you don't really need mplayer, you can use kaffeine or totem or whatever media player you use
[12:21] <ecinx> it opened with totem but no video, like a codec issue i guess
[12:23] <mndo> ecinx, you can use vlc or do an apt-get install kubuntu-restricted-extras
[12:31] <ecinx> thanks mndo, i have to go now
[12:31] <mndo> ecinx, sure, no problem
[12:36] <metRo_> hi
[12:36] <metRo_> with the last update

[12:36] <metRo_> how can i stop it!?
[12:44] <metRo_> anyone?!
[12:49] <BluesKaj> Hi folks
[13:08] <dsemblano> Hi folks, anyone has experienced all maximized windows go bellow the panel? Behave like Visibility - Windows go bellow. Using KDE 4.6 RC2
[13:08] <dsemblano> if so, is there any workaround?
[13:25] <pucko-``> why are mounted disks added as /media/disk-1 instead of /media/<label> ? this is very confusing when I occasionaly access different disks in different order. Anyone know how to change this behavior?
[13:26] <stealthc> is there a way to probe for the mount folder generically in linux?
[13:26] <stealthc> I need something cleaner than this: sudo blkid -o list | awk "/SubWeb/"' { print $4 }' | cut -d'/' -f2
[13:27] <pucko-> good question.
[13:54] <Kolia> anyone knows if it's possible to set a picture as desktop background from gwenview?
[13:57] <BluesKaj> Kolia, open desktop settings by right clicking on the desktop and choosing it in the dialog box then plasma desktop settings will open, then choose the open tab , then choose the path to the file you want
[13:58] <Kolia> BluesKaj: thanks, I know this way, but i wonder about doing it from gwenview
[13:58] <Kolia> BluesKaj: usecase: i'm watching a nice diaporama and suddenly find a good pic and want to use it as background
[13:58] <Kolia> (and too lazy to minimize, check the name of pic, open the dialo from desktop..) :)
[13:58] <BluesKaj> gwenview is merely the vehicle to open those files
[13:59] <Kolia> a right-click on a pic from gwenview slideshow -> set as background picture would be nice for me though :p
[14:02] <bullium_> Running kubuntu 10.04 and the panel crashed but I still have programs running and can issue an ALT+F2 to run apps and have a terminal open. How can I start the panel back up without restarting X?
[14:03] <Kolia> bullium_: try plasma-desktop from krunner
[14:04] <bullium_> Kolia: awesome! that did it...I've been using gnome to long :)
[14:05] <Kolia> bullium_: :))
[14:06] <bullium_> Kolia: KDE simply handles multiple monitors better than gnome right now; not to mention it's prettier and works well with docky :)
[14:07] <Kolia> really? you find it better with multiple monitors?
[14:07] <BluesKaj> gnome is ok , but they are having transition to gnome 3 probs due to a lack of attention to the the existing desktop's probs
[14:08] <Kolia> i've been happy with it but only because of the nvidia tool to handle the screen settings. I found the handling of multiple screens in KDE generally tricky.
[14:08] <Kolia> but maybe it changed lately
[14:09] <BluesKaj> gnome works better with some graphics cards than others , kde seems to work better with nvidia than ati atm
[14:09] <Kolia> yeah that's what i found, but even with nvidia, the native kde tool for monitor settings didn't work well
[14:10] <Kolia> (for me)
[14:10] <bullium_> Kolia: well I used the nvidia tool for in gnome...but I decided to try KDE by installing the kde4-destkop package. So maybe some of my nvidia configs bleed over, but I was able to do more with multiple monitors with kcmshell4
[14:12] <BluesKaj> well. rather than multiple monitors i just use my plasma tv as a monitor
[14:12] <Kolia> good news then
[14:12] <Kolia> BluesKaj: resolution is ok?
[14:12] <BluesKaj> this pc is our media server as well
[14:13] <BluesKaj> nvidia dvi to hdmi
[14:13] <bullium_> Kolia: thanks for the help
[14:13] <BluesKaj> Kolia, yes, 1920x1080
[14:13] <Kolia> bullium_: np
[14:13] <Kolia> BluesKaj: how big is the screen?
[14:14] <BluesKaj> not too large , 42"
[14:15] <Kolia> lol
[14:16] <BluesKaj> I'm about 3M away from the scrn, the fonts have to be above 12 or so ...chromium browser toolbar and bookmark fonts don't link to kde settings tho, so I'm forced to use FF
[14:18] <BluesKaj> using wireless KG and mouse from my easychair
[14:18] <BluesKaj> er KB
[14:18] <Kolia> BluesKaj: stop, i hate you already
[14:19] <Kolia> i'm sitting on a nice chair, but in front of a netbook
[14:19] <Kolia> :p
[14:19] <BluesKaj> well, I'm an old retired guy ,
[15:08] <JohnFlux> I have drawing corruption..  was there a recent update that caused this?

[19:06] <bhargava> Hi can someone help me installing themes in kubuntu
[19:06] <james147> bhargava: themes for what?
[19:06] <bhargava> Is there a theme manager where I can just browse for themes and install what I like
[19:06] <bhargava> desktop themes
[19:07] <james147> bhargava: easiest way is to: System settings > workspace appearence > Desktop themes > Get new themes
[19:09] <bhargava> @james147: there is no workspace appearence option in the system settings, only appearence and there is no desktop themes option in that (Using kubuntu 10.04)
[19:10] <james147> bhargava: what version of kubuntu/kde?
[19:10] <bhargava> @james147: using kubuntu 10.04
[19:11]  * james147 cant remember what system settings looked like back then.... tis so old now
[19:12] <bhargava> @james147: kde version is 4.4.5 Qt: 4.6.2
[19:13] <james147> bhargava: well ^^ as far as i can remember the dialog is about the same in 4.4, though I have no clue where it is in that version :)
[19:14] <bhargava> @james147: Thanks for your time. I'll look for it
[19:14] <james147> although, if i recall... it dident work as well in the past, 4.5, and 4.6 had it working much better, you might want to consider upgrading (there are many other bug fixes and they are much more responsive as well)
[19:16] <bhargava> @james147: Sure, but for now I'll look around a bit for the option, look if it works and then install the new versions if required. The bugs have not bothered me till now so...
[19:17] <james147> its not only bugs, but i found 4.5 much more resposive, and so nicer to use in general
[19:18] <bhargava> james147: Oh is that then I would definitely give it a try
[19:18] <Peace-> james147: to me 4.5 nope
[19:19] <Peace-> james147: 4.4.2 for me was the best
[19:19] <Peace-> speed i mean
[19:19] <james147> Peace-: heh, each version just keeps getting faster for me :S
[19:20] <james147> Peace-: how much ram do you ahve?
[19:20]  * BluesKaj can't tell the diff , kde 4 has been fast for me perios :)
[19:20] <BluesKaj> er period
[19:20]  * DarthFrog even liked KDE 4.0. :-)
[19:20] <Peace-> james147: 1 gb
[19:21] <Peace-> james147: xD yea shame on me
[19:21] <james147> :) 1gig should be enough, though i tend to have at leat 2,
[19:22] <james147> Peace-: what graphics card?
[19:22] <Peace-> hahaha intel 945gm
[19:22] <Peace-> shame on me 2 xD
[19:22] <james147> :d my net books has that one... or a similar one... cant remember the numebrs, and it runs fine :D
[19:23] <Peace-> yea infact it runs fine
[19:23]  * Peace- on 11.04 no :(
[19:23] <james147> :D ... thats what you get on alpha though
[19:23] <Peace-> xD
[19:23] <james147> ^^ the installer crashed for me the last time i tryed it (in a vm though)
[19:24]  * Peace- (use alternate always)

[19:39] <YuraDoc> i had set set prefix=(hdX,Y)/boot/grub

[20:26] <moussa> !
[20:35] <jsaw> hi
[20:36] <james147> hello jsaw
[20:36] <jsaw> hi james147 :)
[20:36] <jsaw> I'm lost once again: I'd like to file a bug report on launchpad about the pager behavior, package is plasma-desktop, but does not seem to exist...????
[20:37] <jsaw> james147: thanks for the pointer.  I ended up in #kontact and got some quite useful hints
[20:37] <james147> jsaw: why not https://bugs.kde.org/ ?
[20:38] <jsaw> hmmm, ...
[20:39] <jsaw> james147: I'm still used to my work style when I was working on the T2-Project...
[20:39] <james147> btw, whats wrong with its behaviour?
[20:40] <jsaw> james147: (ppl informed me about problems with the packages I maintained, then, I contacted the devs...)
[20:41] <jsaw> pager doesn't like '1 row', it displays it correctly as one row, but key bindings (Next/Prev) do not
[20:42] <jsaw> for shortcuts it behaves as n rows, where n is the number of virtual desktops...
[20:43] <jsaw> (to be more exact, it works when changing the configuration, but after next start this '1 versus n rows' appears)
[21:35] <bhargava> james147: do I compile kde 4.5/4.6 from source or is it available in the repositories
[21:36] <bhargava> does someone use kate for C development here
[21:36] <james147> bhargava: on 10.04 its avaible in the backs ports repo (if i remember correctly) "ppa:kubuntu-ppa/backports"  (kde 4.5 that is)
[21:36] <james147> bhargava: 4.6rc wont be added to 10.04, but is in the beta ppa for 10.10
[21:37]  * james147 suggest upgrading to 10.10 ...
[21:37] <bhargava> james147: I just read somewhere that backports usually have software still in test state.... So does it cause any problems
[21:38] <james147> backports has stable programs of a newer major version, beta has prerelease software in it
[21:40] <FloridaGuy> i right click on a panel icon...click icon settings....change the icon...to want i want...but it dosent change
[21:40] <moses> what program does KDE use to config networks?
[21:41] <james147> moses: "network-manager"   << you can control it through the network managment widget
[21:41] <FloridaGuy> moses: system settings.... and you will see network settings in there
[21:41] <moses> it didnt open
[21:41] <moses> im trying to run it from the CLI
[21:41] <moses> any ideas
[21:42] <bhargava> james147: Thanks for the answer. Also where can I get info regarding the kate editor. I have a problem using the CTags plugin that came along with Kate editor.
[21:43] <james147> moses: there was a commandline version, but as far as i know it required X anyway ... :p
[21:43] <moses> i have x installed
[21:43] <moses> im just trying to run it so it pops up
[21:43] <james147> moses: pops up?
[21:43] <moses> yea like on my blank desktop
[21:43] <james147> bhargava: you could try assking in #kde
[21:44] <james147> moses: if you have plasma-desktop running, then add the entwork managemnt widget to the deskop or panel
[21:44] <Rioting_Pacifist> do word documents support a <hr> or what is the best way to put lines into a text document (i'm using abiword but can switch to libre/etc if required)
[21:44] <moses> i cant
[21:44] <moses> i can only run the programs
[21:45] <moses> whats the widgit program name?
[21:45] <FloridaGuy> moses: the wiget is on your panel
[21:46] <moses> i have a different wm running
[21:46] <james147> moses: alt+f2: Network managment    i think will launch the widget in a window... though i think it might only work with kde 4.6 or possibally 4.5
[21:46] <FloridaGuy> mine looks like a network cable plug
[21:46] <moses> hmm
[21:46] <james147> moses: do you have plasma-desktop running?
[21:46] <moses> nope different WM
[21:46] <moses> but i want to run KDE stuff
[21:46] <james147> moses: its not a window manager...
[21:47] <moses> basically all i have is a black background and a terminal open
[21:47] <FloridaGuy> alt f2 brings up run screen or search witch ever it is
[21:47] <james147> why are you not running plasma-desktop? and if you dont want to then i suggest using the gnome applet (nm-applet)
[21:48] <yofel> or knetworkmanager (install network-manager-kde)
[21:49] <yofel> but I think both knm and nm-applet require some kind of panel running (or systray/notification area rather)
[21:49] <moses> hmmm
[21:50] <moses> so theres no straight up program?
[21:50] <yofel> moses: you can always use wpa_supplicant from the command line for wireless connections
[21:50] <yofel> read the documentation on how to use it
[22:09] <Darothane> hey guys, I'm trying to get java installed under ubuntu 10.04 x64 but i can't find the package name anywhere to install, can anyone help?
[22:11] <james147> openjdk-jre  i think
[22:12] <Darothane> couldn't find it :(
[22:12] <Darothane> thanks for trying though
[22:13] <yofel> Darothane: openjdk-6-jre
[22:13] <yofel> Darothane: and icedtea6-plugin for the webbrowser plugin
[22:13]  * Darothane loves yofel
[22:36] <komputes> Where does kmail store its contacts?
[22:37] <Snowhog> komputes: What version of Kubuntu and KDE are you running?
[22:38] <komputes> Snowhog: before nepomuk and the database thing. Just looking where in my home dir kmail is looking/storing the contacts
[22:39] <Snowhog> komputes: ~/.local/share/contacts/
[22:39] <komputes> Snowhog: cheers
[22:41] <komputes> Snowhog: nope, anywhere else you can think of?
[22:41] <komputes> i see an akonadi folder in share, don't see a contacts folder in my backup which was before nepomuk tried to update it
[22:42] <komputes> btw, kaddressbook cant see the contacts but kmail can
[22:45] <komputes> Snowhog: my backup is from 8.04, where were contacts located back then?
[22:46] <Snowhog> komputes: Open Kmail. Click on Contacts. In the pane that shows the contacts, right-click on the folder and click on folder properties.
[22:47] <komputes> ~/.strigi/clucene_8o2.cfs is about 34MB this may be it...
[22:47] <komputes> ok i will so as you say
[22:49] <komputes> Snowhog: Click on Contacts <- don't see this, I have to write an email and click "Select..."
[22:50] <komputes> Snowhog: opening kaddressbook is buggy - show no contacts at all, but all my contacts can be seen in the "Select..." window
[22:51] <Snowhog> komputes:  $HOME/Mail contains your actual mail messages. $HOME/.kde/share/config/kmailrc and $HOME/.kde/share/apps/kmail/ contain your KMail account and filter information. $HOME/.kde/share/apps/kabc/std.vcf contains the addressbook entries.
[22:51] <komputes> Snowhog: looking, fingers crossed
[22:54] <komputes> Snowhog: thanks, I think they have been found. Lifesaver that's what you are!
[22:54] <komputes> heres lots of 'em
[22:54] <komputes> theres*
[22:54] <Snowhog> komputes: :)
[23:13] <PasNox> hello i'm looking for how i can use squashfs with lzma support in kubuntu 10.10 ?
[23:13] <PasNox> any idea ?
[23:13] <PasNox> it seem squashfs tools of kubuntu only has zlib support
[23:38] <nicklas_> hello
[23:38] <james147> Hello nicklas_
[23:39] <nicklas_> you know if there is some way to get pulse in wine? not the oss way
[23:40] <james147> try asking #winehq
[23:40] <nicklas_> ty, done that
[23:41] <nicklas_> will kde 4.6 hit the kubuntu updates repos or backports when its released in 2 days?
[23:43] <yofel> in backports
[23:43] <nicklas_> hm ok, then i will probably have to reconfigure alot
[23:43] <nicklas_> there are alot of new functions, phew
[23:44] <nicklas_> like kwallet will be removed in favor for some other app, dont remember the name
[23:44] <nicklas_> ive just gotten it as i want, have to empty my home and reconfigure again, argh
[23:46]  * james147 dident think kwallet was being replaced in 4.6...
[23:47] <nicklas_> james147: http://www.kde.org/announcements/announce-4.6-beta1.php/ and http://techbase.kde.org/Schedules/KDE4/4.6_Feature_Plan
[23:48] <nicklas_> ksecretserviced
[23:49] <yofel> hm, I don't think that made it for 4.6 - or I didn't notice it
[23:49] <Spaztic_One> should kubuntu be running a little sluggishly on a 2 ghz dual core with 3 gb of ram?
[23:49] <james147> nicklas_: no mention of it in the first one
[23:49] <james147> and the second still says in progress, suggesting it wont make it
[23:49] <nicklas_> james147: yeah, your probably right
[23:50] <james147> ^^ also i still seem to ahve kwallet, on the rc2
[23:50] <nicklas_> james147: ok
[23:50] <yofel> Spaztic_One: define 'sluggish' - is it still sluggish without compositing on?
[23:50] <james147> although, that means it will probally be ready and polished for 4.7 :D
[23:50] <yofel> I have kwallet too 4.6.0
[23:51]  * james147 is looking forward to seeing if the new system will be better then kwallet though :D
[23:51] <nicklas_> how can you be running 4.6.0 when its not released?
[23:51] <james147> ^^ when it finaly comes
[23:51] <james147> nicklas_: rc2
[23:51] <Spaztic_One> yofel: Don't know what compositing is. Gnome (ubuntu) runs fine though.
[23:51] <james147> its in the beta repos
[23:51] <yofel> nicklas_: I'm a packager, so I already have the tars
[23:52] <james147> (if i remember correctly)
[23:52] <yofel> Spaztic_One: go to systemsettings -> desktop effects and turn them off
[23:53] <Spaztic_One> yofel: one moment, switching back to kde
[23:53] <nicklas_> but composoting shouldnt be sluggish with those specs that he has?
[23:54] <yofel> depends on graphics card / driver in that case
[23:54] <james147> ^^ could be if the processing is done on the cpu
[23:54] <nicklas_> yeah
[23:54] <yofel> but 'sluggissh' is very vagure
[23:54] <nicklas_> what card do you have spaz ?
[23:54] <yofel> *vague
[23:54] <james147> yeah ^^ and very subjective
[23:54] <james147> he quit
[23:55] <nicklas_> ah, have join/leave and status change deactivated
[23:57] <bartek> hej
[23:58] <nicklas_> bartek: swedish?
[23:59] <yofel> polish from the hostmask
[23:59] <bartek> pl
[23:59] <nicklas_> hej is swedish for hi
[23:59] <yofel> good to know ^
[23:59] <yofel> ^^
[23:59] <Spaztic_One> yofel: Hey, back, and I checked. Compositing is off.
