| Merlin__ | i have it installed running it now | 00:07 |
| Snowhog | Merlin__: Then you still have the CD as an active repository. Here's how you fix that. Press Alt+F2 and type: kdesudo kate /etc/apt/sources.list and press enter. Type your password when prompted. Kate will open with the sources.list file 'as root' for editing. Comment (put a # ) in front of the line that contains the cd-rom as a repository.

| ebeyer | hi | 00:55 |
| ebeyer | Long-time ubuntu user trying kubuntu for the first time.. trying to get 4.6 to install. I think I set up the backport repository correctly but I can't get the system to update, or really to acknowledge that there's anything new to update. | 00:56 |
| ebeyer | I tried following the directions here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Kubuntu | 00:57 |
| ebeyer | By the way, why are the fonts in my windows so huge? It's like the large print books. Was that a design choice or am I doing something wrong? | 00:57 |
| ebeyer | Can anyone here me? I see myself typing but no other communication. | 01:00 |
| ebeyer | *hear | 01:00 |
| lemonmi | 有人用kde吗 | 01:02 |
| ebeyer | Is there anyone here who can help me? | 01:02 |
| yofel | ebeyer: sorry, we're not always at the keyboard all the time, let's see.. | 01:02 |
| ebeyer | I hope I didn't sound frustrated. It's my first time using this client and I wondered if I set something wrong. | 01:03 |
| yofel | ebeyer: what exactly did you add and how? | 01:03 |
| === Muzer is now known as MuzerAway | ||
| yofel | as for the fonts, not sure, check what's used in system settings -> application appearance -> fonts for size and DPI | 01:04 |
| ebeyer | I selected the deb http://ppa:kubuntu-ppa/backports/ maverick | 01:04 |
| yofel | *that* is wrong | 01:04 |
| yofel | easiest way would be to use 'sudo add-apt-repository ppa:kubuntu-ppa/backports' | 01:05 |
| yofel | the full line would be 'deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-ppa/backports/ubuntu maverick main' | 01:05 |
| ebeyer | OK. Trying. | 01:06 |
| ebeyer | "The package system could not be initialized..." Trying your first suggestion. | 01:07 |
| yofel | and you should disable the wrong line | 01:07 |
| ebeyer | OK. Doing that. | 01:07 |
| ebeyer | "The package system could not be initialized, your configuration may be broken".. trying your first suggestion. | 01:09 |
| ebeyer | By the way, why are the default fonts in KDE so big? Am I doing something wrong? | 01:09 |
| yofel | check in system settings as I said | 01:10 |
| yofel | they don't feel huge here | 01:10 |
| xeni | hello | 01:10 |
| ebeyer | Sorry. Mine are running into the edges of windows. | 01:10 |
| ebeyer | OK. Your first suggestion worked just fine. Now how do I get KDE to update everything and install 4.6? | 01:12 |
| yofel | open kpackagekit, go to software updates, check for updates now | 01:12 |
| yofel | check for new updates rather | 01:13 |
| ebeyer | So it does. Thanks! | 01:13 |
| ebeyer | 8 packages to remove, 30 to install. Sound right? | 01:14 |
| yofel | depends on which ones, but that sounds about right (how many to update?) | 01:15 |
| ebeyer | 172 | 01:15 |
| ebeyer | *182 | 01:15 |
| yofel | should be right | 01:15 |
| ebeyer | Thanks. I'm liking the look of the windows. I just need to tame my fonts and I think I'll be good. | 01:15 |
| yofel | as I said: look under System Settings -> Application Appearance -> Fonts. Check the size and the DPI setting | 01:16 |
| ebeyer | Is it hard to turn on the eye candy once 4.6 is set up? | 01:16 |
| ebeyer | I will do that, thanks. | 01:16 |
| Merlin__ | snowhog thanks for the help it was that printer package error that would not let me install anything | 01:16 |
| yofel | if you mean the desktop effects they should be on by default as long as your graphics driver supports them | 01:17 |
| Snowhog | Merlin__: So you resolved it? | 01:17 |
| yofel | check the entry in system settings about them | 01:17 |
| ebeyer | I got compiz running on the gnome side no problem, so I'm guessing I'll be good. | 01:17 |
| ebeyer | That's clever, pibarnas. | 01:20 |
| yofel | heh | 01:20 |
| ebeyer | Where's a good place for suggestions on "eye candy" for kde? | 01:23 |
| Snowhog | ebeyer: http://forum.kde.org/ | 01:24 |
| ebeyer | Thanks, snowhog. | 01:24 |
| ebeyer | Thanks, all. Gonna log now. | 01:25 |
| ebeyer | Take care. | 01:25 |
| openstandards | is it possible to recreate the kwin effects with compiz | 01:53 |
| openstandards | I've noticed kwin kills my cpu usage with conky | 01:53 |
| openstandards | up to 50% usage when just dragging around a window... | 01:53 |
| oduinn | can someone help me with the PlaneShift game? | 02:07 |
| Fanfare | oduinn: whats the prob? | 02:08 |
| oduinn | i have installed the bin file properly - everything installs to /home/user/ without a hitch...problem is when i click on the desktop icon to launch it seems to launch (see a window in the task bar and the bouncy icon next to the mouse) but alas it blips out so to say | 02:08 |
| oduinn | both disappear | 02:08 |
| oduinn | and nothing else happens (it's as if i never clicked on it in the first place) | 02:09 |
| oduinn | i have every appropriate libc6 installed as well | 02:09 |
| oduinn | and i am running kubuntu on a thinkpad r52 | 02:09 |
| oduinn | it's driving me crazy | 02:10 |
| Fanfare | oduinn: did u install in /opt (systemwide) or localy? did u check permissions User should be in group games. | 02:10 |
| Fanfare | oduinn: and does your system have cappable video card? OpenGL? | 02:11 |
| oduinn | permissions is set to executable..and i install system wide - when i install in /opt (with sudo) it installs but i get no icon on desktop (even though the name appears where the icon should be) and KDEinit error cannot access it | 02:11 |
| oduinn | seems i get much farther when installing (not as root) in home/user | 02:12 |
| Fanfare | oduinn: no icon means your user is most probably not in games group... | 02:12 |
| oduinn | okay so er...how do i fix that | 02:12 |
| oduinn | because i tried installing it as root to /user/games/ as well | 02:13 |
| Fanfare | oduinn: use kuser to add yourself to group games | 02:13 |
| oduinn | same weird problem with KDEinit | 02:13 |
| oduinn | hmmm, would that be in terminal or in the PS setup? | 02:13 |
| Fanfare | kuser is a kde tool | 02:14 |
| Corin | Wow. | 02:14 |
| Fanfare | try kuser in terminal and it gives instrucktions to install if not installed | 02:14 |
| Corin | I'm surprised this channel's so large. | 02:14 |
| Fanfare | Corin: depends on screen resolution :-) | 02:14 |
| Corin | Let me rephrase. | 02:15 |
| Corin | I'm surprised this channel has so many users accessing it at this particular point in time. | 02:15 |
| oduinn | alright one moment please | 02:15 |
| Fanfare | Q@all: someone knows a good (kde)app for IPTV? | 02:16 |
| oduinn | alright i just opened Kuser and open user/games | 02:19 |
| oduinn | under user there is a number 5 | 02:19 |
| oduinn | and account disabled is checked | 02:19 |
| oduinn | should i go to the group tab? | 02:20 |
| oduinn | not sure how to do this and i do not want to accidentally change something that would adversely affect my system | 02:21 |
| Fanfare | edit your user (mostly id 1000) | 02:22 |
| oduinn | alright i just opened Kuser and open user/games | 02:22 |
| oduinn | under user there is a number 5 | 02:22 |

| Fanfare | Tab Groups check games | 02:22 |
| Corin | Does anyone know where the conf file for my touchpad would be in 10.10? | 02:22 |
| oduinn | sorry | 02:23 |
| Corin | Don't say etc/X11/xorg.conf | 02:24 |
| Corin | Not there. | 02:24 |
| oduinn | alright so what do i do now | 02:26 |
| Fanfare | oduinn: user edited? Added group games to your user? | 02:26 |
| Fanfare | well, then u need tu flush your user privs. i dont know a quick way for that (anyone?) so reboot your machine... | 02:27 |
| oduinn | um...it isn't let me edit anything in kuser | 02:29 |
| Fanfare | kuser should ask password on startup to get root privs | 02:29 |
| oduinn | okay so i check "games" under "groups" tab for user | 02:31 |
| oduinn | i sudo kuser in terminal | 02:32 |
| oduinn | worked fine | 02:32 |
| oduinn | now do i just reboot and try launching the game | 02:32 |
| Fanfare | yes, reboot and see if u get game icons of systemwide install | 02:33 |
| oduinn | and that's only after i have installed in root/opt | 02:33 |
| oduinn | because if that's the case I will need to reinstall in /opt first | 02:34 |
| Fanfare | well, u can install later... after reboot check in terminal win "id" if group games shows up... | 02:35 |
| oduinn | alright | 02:37 |
| oduinn | brb | 02:37 |
| oduinn | alright so the exec isn't checked under permissions afterall | 02:43 |
| oduinn | and it says i don't have permissions to do it when i try | 02:43 |
| Fanfare | oduinn: which exec? | 02:44 |
| Fanfare | did u "id" in terminal? | 02:44 |
| oduinn | arg - no...hold on will do it | 02:45 |
| oduinn | ok what am i looking for after i type id | 02:45 |
| Fanfare | check installed files/folders of PS with ls -l /opt/ should have <user>:games | 02:46 |
| Fanfare | in id there should be group games listed | 02:46 |
| Corin | Does using Kubuntu increase my chances of getting laid? | 02:47 |
| oduinn | no it says 9 root games | 02:49 |
| Fanfare | oduinn: thats ok too | 02:49 |
| oduinn | ok so now what | 02:49 |
| Fanfare | go to /opt/PlaneShift | 02:50 |
| oduinn | alright i am there | 02:51 |
| Fanfare | type ./pslaunch | 02:51 |
| Fanfare | Corin: why do u think u could be laid by installing kubuntu? | 02:53 |
| Corin | Well... it works better than Windows, thus saving me the time I waste for it to stop sucking. :P | 02:54 |

| Daskreech | c2tarun: I think we are not talking about the same thing | 04:11 |
| Daskreech | c2tarun: Oh wait which KDE are you using? | 04:12 |
| c2tarun | Daskreech: KDE 4.5.1 | 04:12 |
| Daskreech | Ah umm Ok I have aKDE 4.6 and it's just a dropdown and you choose paste.ubuntu.com | 04:12 |
| c2tarun | Daskreech: hey kde 4.6 is KDE-plasma right? | 04:13 |
| Daskreech | I'm not sure how to answer that | 04:13 |
| Daskreech | what are you asking? | 04:13 |
| c2tarun | Daskreech: I heard about a KDE env know as KDE plasma. What is it? | 04:14 |
| maco | plasma is what all your widgets and panel and stuff are | 04:14 |
| maco | there's Plasma Desktop, Plasma Netbook, and Plasma Mobile (which is for phones) | 04:15 |
| Daskreech | c2tarun: It's what you know as your Desktop. | 04:15 |
| Daskreech | The Widget that you are trying to configure now is a part of Plasma | 04:15 |
| c2tarun | maco: ohh... :) got it. what is the difference btw KDE 4.5 and KDE 4.6? | 04:16 |
| maco | age | 04:16 |
| maco | and wallpaper, i think | 04:16 |
| c2tarun | maco: nothing else :/ | 04:16 |
| maco | well i mean, there's newer code... | 04:16 |
| maco | so new features | 04:17 |
| maco | but thats what i mean by "age" | 04:17 |

| Corin | I used to use MPC-HC or mpcstar... but those are Windows only. | 04:26 |
| ruffleS | Corin, mplayer | 04:27 |
| ruffleS | maybe vlc | 04:28 |
| Corin | Not VLC. | 04:28 |
| Corin | I was consider mplayer. | 04:28 |
| ruffleS | Corin, mplayer is my favorite | 04:28 |
| c2tarun | Corin: one thing I can tell for sure, Totem player was better than Dragon player | 04:29 |
| Corin | ruffleS: KMPlayer or Gnome MPlayer? :P | 04:30 |
| Daskreech | http://www.kde.org/announcements/4.6/ c2tarun | 04:33 |

| ruffleS | Daskreech, thank you | 04:34 |
| c2tarun | Daskreech: thanks :) | 04:34 |
| Corin | Do MPlayer, Dragon or Totem have smart playlist functions? | 04:35 |
| Daskreech | Corin: I think your definition of simple is not what most people's definition is | 04:43 |
| Corin | What's my definition? | 04:43 |
| Daskreech | Simple has smartness? | 04:44 |
| Corin | That's pretty much the ONLY feature I want. :o | 04:44 |
| Daskreech | I think that for the most part once you have smart playlists it stops being simple | 04:45 |
| Daskreech | but you might try bangarang | 04:45 |

| Corin | Applications settings seems to only be able to let me do the former. | 05:16 |
| Daskreech | Oh do window settings then you can make them biased based on title etc | 05:17 |

| Corin | I'm rather new to KDE. | 05:17 |

| Daskreech | if you want to split them just look for the difference in a Buddylist and a Conversation and have only conversations autogroup | 05:18 |
| Corin | But what setting would I use to group them? | 05:20 |
| Daskreech | I'm not sure what you are using to group them in the first place | 05:21 |
| Corin | Oh. | 05:21 |
| Corin | Never mind. | 05:21 |
| Corin | Just figured it out. | 05:21 |
| Daskreech | Hooray! | 05:22 |

| faLUCE | hi. Is there a well ubuntu-compatible pci express video capture card (8 video inputs or more) that I can buy? | 07:54 |
| CuBeW0rK | hi all! I've just made an ext3 partition on a USB stick, and when I connect it and mount it using the popup window, I don't have user permissions on it | 08:23 |
| CuBeW0rK | I can't create any files on it, it says permission denied | 08:24 |
| CuBeW0rK | how can I fix this? | 08:24 |
| tsimpson | CuBeW0rK: use "sudo chown -R $USER:$USER /media/whatever" (where /media/whatever is the location the partition is mounted) | 08:28 |
| tsimpson | you should only have to do that once and the changes should be stored on the USB partition | 08:29 |
| CuBeW0rK | tsimpson, thx | 08:29 |
| bennyd420 | anyone around that knows linux well? | 08:36 |

| Daskreech | bennyd420: I suppose | 08:55 |
| Daskreech | what would you like to ask? | 08:56 |
| Daskreech | faLUCE: Most ATI cards are linux certified. a lot of highend graphics are done on Linux so the drivers work well for them | 08:56 |
| Daskreech | They may not be very good for gaming etc but they will be solid | 08:57 |
| Daskreech | CuBeW0rK: how did you mount the drive? you probably did it with a restriceted set of permissions? | 08:58 |
| CuBeW0rK | Daskreech, my problem is solved now | 08:58 |
| Daskreech | CuBeW0rK: :-) | 08:58 |
| Daskreech | ok | 08:58 |

| CuBeW0rK | I try to sync my nepomuk database between two computers | 08:59 |

| c2tarun | Can anyone please tell me somethin about kubuntu-ninjas and what do they do? | 10:06 |
| yofel | c2tarun: they are the team responsible for packaging software for Kubuntu | 10:16 |
| Daskreech | c2tarun: They are the team of volunteers who gets the KDE stuff that needs to be done done | 10:27 |
| Daughain | HOw do I add commands so I can use them as su? | 10:28 |
| yofel | Daughain: root can run any commands (except your bash aliases when using sudo) | 10:30 |
| Daughain | Nope. | 10:30 |
| Daughain | sudo ./fastboot==command not found | 10:30 |
| Daughain | plain ./fastboot==permissoin denied. | 10:31 |
| === sean is now known as Guest7587 | ||
| c2tarun | Daskreech: are they same as MOTU in ubuntu? | 10:33 |
| yofel | odd, running a simple 'sudo ./test.sh' after creating that works fine here | 10:33 |
| yofel | c2tarun: MOTU is for universe/multiverse, and ninjas don't have upload rights to the archive themselves, kubuntu-devs have that. But generally they have the same purpose. The ninjas help in preparing the packages before they get uploaded | 10:34 |
| c2tarun | yofel: are there any documentation available like how to become a k*-ninja? | 10:35 |
| Daughain | If it was normal, I owuldnt need to be asking for help. =) | 10:35 |
| Daughain | fastboot is an executable. and running the command in its local dir. | 10:37 |
| Daughain | Using ./fastboot I get 'permission denied' | 10:38 |
| yofel | c2tarun: see https://wiki.kubuntu.org/Kubuntu/GettingInvolved/Development | 10:38 |
| Daughain | using sudo ./fastboot I get 'command not found'. | 10:39 |
| yofel | Daughain: well, can you post the full command not found line? | 10:39 |
| c2tarun | yofel: thanks :) | 10:39 |
| yofel | c2tarun: but in general: go to #kubuntu-devel and say you want to become one, we always need help | 10:39 |
| Daughain | daughain@Saints-Haven:~/android/platform-tools$ sudo ./fastboot | 10:40 |
| Daughain | sudo: ./fastboot: command not found | 10:40 |
| Daughain | daughain@Saints-Haven:~/android/platform-tools$ ./fastboot | 10:40 |
| Daughain | bash: ./fastboot: Permission denied | 10:40 |
| Daughain | Thats both. | 10:40 |
| yofel | I fear I'm clueless then :/ | 10:40 |
| c2tarun | yofel: sure :) hey I know Gtk programming a bit, do I have to learn Qt or Gtk can help me? | 10:41 |
| Daughain | I am too, thats why I stopped in here. =) | 10:41 |
| yofel | c2tarun: probably not too much since we usually work with Qt applications (note: you don't need to know programming to become a ninja, though it helps in a few cases) | 10:42 |
| yofel | c2tarun: but really, start by hanging out in #kubuntu-devel, we don't bite | 10:43 |
| TheLiQuid | hi, i've got a little problem updateing to version 4.6, i added the ppa:kubuntu-ppa/backports tp my sources and when i want to install kubuntu-desktop it said that i've got the newest version but i have 4.5.1 | 10:43 |
| TheLiQuid | can any1 tell me where my mistake is? | 10:43 |
| c2tarun | yofel: sure :) i am there, and from next time when i come to IRC i'll surely join it :) by the way, is #kubuntu-devel is the place where ninjas stay? | 10:44 |
| yofel | TheLiQuid: did you check for updates after adding it? (refreshed the cache?) | 10:44 |
| TheLiQuid | yes i do | 10:44 |
| yofel | c2tarun: yes, everything related to kubuntu development happens there | 10:44 |
| yofel | TheLiQuid: err... also, you'll already have kubuntu-desktop installed, you need to update the packages, not install kubuntu-desktop | 10:45 |
| c2tarun | yofel: grt :) | 10:46 |
| TheLiQuid | but with the update he wants to remove my ubuntu-desktop, atm i have installed both because im not sure which one to use in future | 10:49 |
| tsimpson | Daughain: does fastboot have executable permissions? | 10:53 |
| Daughain | Thanks, tsimpson, That was the prob, yeah. just got done fixing that. | 10:53 |
| tsimpson | sudo will complain with the not found error even if it exists, but is not executable | 10:54 |
| * Daughain nods. | 10:55 | |
| * Daughain learned that. =) | 10:55 | |
| yofel | TheLiQuid: can you run 'sudo apt-get dist-upgrade' and put the output in a pastebin? | 10:56 |

| genii-around | jsebean: If it doesn't boot now under 10.04, it probably still won't boot under 10.10 | 15:48 |
| jsebean | how do i fix it? | 15:48 |
| jsebean | ubuntu (gnome) worked fine | 15:48 |
| jsebean | but this wont work | 15:48 |

| sri13 | how to upgrade directly from kubuntu 9.04 to kubuntu 10.10 | 16:01 |
| Riddell | sri13: you can't | 16:02 |
| sri13 | Riddell: Is there any way other solution for this ? | 16:02 |
| laszlok | Riddell: I paid the full price for the lenovo one, ($60) which is too much because it isn't even really a converter. The laptop is using sata internally so its just a bracket that holds the drive in place and lets you hook regular sata up to the mini sata port inside the ultrabay | 16:03 |
| Riddell | sri13: upgrade to 9.10 then 10.04 then 10.10 or just install 10.10 over the old instal | 16:03 |
| sri13 | Riddell: I tried installing using cd , but it didnt work .... OS is not detecting my keyboard or mouse during installation | 16:04 |

| Peace- | so the port wil be closed :D | 17:06 |
| Peace- | will be kept closed | 17:07 |

| Peace- | iptables of your computer doens't take effect on the iptable of university router ... | 17:08 |
| Peace- | i guess | 17:08 |

| Peace- | avihay: anyway kubuntu doesn't enable by default iptables | 17:08 |
| avihay | no it doesn't, but like I've said, Hamachi works. it opens it's tunnel successfully | 17:08 |
| Peace- | mm | 17:08 |
| avihay | I can't use the tunnel due to my computer blocking it | 17:09 |
| avihay | otherwise, ping would have said destination unreachable, or hamachi wouldn't have been able to connect at all | 17:09 |
| Peace- | avihay: so i you are sure... about this try to compile that firewall interface | 17:09 |
| Peace- | and set some ports | 17:09 |
| Peace- | avihay: i have an article here about hamachi | 17:09 |
| Peace- | avihay: but it's italian ... | 17:10 |
| Peace- | avihay: have you chromium ? | 17:10 |
| Peace- | so you can translateit ? | 17:10 |
| avihay | chrome uses google translate. you can use google translate from any broser, and even some non-browser like IE < 9 | 17:11 |
| Peace- | i know but chromium is comfortable.. | 17:12 |
| Peace- | -.- | 17:12 |
| Peace- | anyway that is | 17:12 |
| Peace- | http://ubuntrucchi.wordpress.com/2008/03/22/hamachi-una-semplice-vpn-distribuita/ | 17:12 |
| Peace- | !hamachi | 17:12 |
| avihay | I don't think I'll compile it. it looks very experimental. I'm gonna try gufw from the repositories | 17:12 |
| Peace- | do as you wish | 17:12 |
| Peace- | i am on kubuntu 10.04 | 17:12 |
| Peace- | and it's working fine | 17:12 |

| BluesKaj | avihay, if you think your U isn't packetshaping or port monitoring and throttling your connection , then i would be very surprised | 17:21 |
| avihay | I know it is, but why would I get that error message if it was? | 17:22 |

| Guest70698 | Is there a way to make touchpad scrolling works in kubuntu 10.04 | 17:24 |
| BluesKaj | avihay, can you ssh into the network pcs ? | 17:24 |
| Guest70698 | ? | 17:26 |
| avihay | BluesKaj: I can ssh where I want. they block ssh to my computer though | 17:28 |
| avihay | the computer I'm trying to connect to with hamachi is behind a firewall, and running windows. It won't be practical to run an ssh server on it | 17:29 |
| ncfi1013 | my file manager is opening in vlc instead of dolphin. what do i do? ive tried the right click option and there is no option to change it back to dolphin. so what do i do? | 17:30 |
| avihay | damn annoying using the computer farm computers without KDE software is a pain in the @$$$, and not being able to forward x over ssh from my computer is also annoying | 17:31 |
| ncfi1013 | my file manager is opening in vlc instead of dolphin. what do i do? ive tried the right click option and there is no option to change it back to dolphin. so what do i do? | 17:33 |
| avihay | IPtable's ruleset is too scary for me to tackle alone... | 17:33 |
| BluesKaj | avihay, ssh -Y -l username 192.168.x.x . that should get an X server if you run the "appname &" | 17:33 |
| avihay | ncfi1013: then add one | 17:33 |
| ncfi1013 | how | 17:34 |
| avihay | sec | 17:34 |
| avihay | ncfi1013: go to system settings -> default applications | 17:35 |
| BluesKaj | ncfi1013, open system settings /default applications / file manager , choose dolphin | 17:35 |
| avihay | in file manager, you should have dolphin listed | 17:35 |
| avihay | if you have it, select it. if you don't, the bottom option let's you sellect it manually | 17:36 |
| ncfi1013 | now how do i remove the vlc option from the default applications menu? thanks for your help. | 17:38 |
| Peace- | ncfi1013: system settings file associations | 17:39 |
| avihay | well, there is another option to change these settings. go to dolphin, right click a folder, select properties | 17:39 |
| avihay | or that | 17:39 |
| BluesKaj | hmm, gnome still isn't my cuppa tea..nice to look at but panel etc are not to my taste ..tried configging it to somethin I call workable but it's just not "happening" | 17:39 |

| Peace- | in kde there a lots of ways... | 17:40 |
| Peace- | xD | 17:41 |
| avihay | it's self explanatory, but, click what you don't like, click remove | 17:41 |
| Corin | In KDE, you could have a panel on each side. xD | 17:41 |
| Corin | Including top and bottom. :o | 17:41 |
| avihay | in kde, you can only have one panel on each side, and they all have to use the same theme | 17:42 |
| iulian_ | avihay: maybe there http://community.logmein.com/t5/Hamachi/hamachi-0-9-9-9-20-linux-client-to-hamachi-2-issues/td-p/30817 | 17:42 |
| Corin | avihay: Did I say that wasn't true? | 17:42 |
| ncfi1013 | ok thanks avihay blueskaj and peace-. i will just avoid vlc in the right click menu. | 17:43 |
| Peace- | ncfi1013: :) | 17:43 |

| Ubulindy | they said to come here | 19:09 |
| Ubulindy | tried thru "computer", and it said file type can not be opened | 19:09 |
| Ubulindy | wierd | 19:09 |
| tsimpson | how are you trying to access /home? | 19:09 |
| Ubulindy | at this point thru any way I can, since unlike gnome, there is no >places>home>video, ect | 19:10 |

| Ubulindy | it opned up gedit from what I recall | 19:13 |
| Ubulindy | and I was accessing it thru the panel menu | 19:13 |
| Ubulindy | except in kde, its quite different, and the usual options are gone | 19:13 |
| Ubulindy | it shows merely "computer" | 19:13 |
| Ubulindy | and when I click a box comes up saying unable to open file type | 19:14 |
| Ubulindy | Iv e switched back and forth to all desktops, and Ive never seen this happen | 19:14 |
| Ubulindy | any ideas? | 19:15 |
| Peace- | Ubulindy: what? | 19:17 |
| Ubulindy | can not access or even view my home folder, videos, music, nothing | 19:17 |

| rork | ubuntu: larger resolution are probably available if you install graphics drivers | 22:06 |
| ubuntu | and it says also no propietary drivers are in use on this system | 22:06 |
| rork | ubuntu: but you can activate them? | 22:07 |
| ubuntu | install graphics drivers...mmmm, but that is a probability | 22:07 |
| rork | I mean, there is one you can select | 22:07 |
| ubuntu | activate what? there are no options to be activate it | 22:07 |
| rork | That's probably because you're on a live-cd, activating them requires a reboot | 22:08 |
| mr-rich | anyone know what is the gui gnome config tool? | 22:08 |
| maco | gconf-editor? | 22:08 |
| rork | mr-rich: maybe ask in #ubuntu, they know about gnome, this channel is kde oriented | 22:08 |
| ubuntu | well i am on live cd because i want to see everything before installing it | 22:08 |
| ubuntu | and so far i have that issue with my screen res | 22:09 |
| maco | ubuntu: does it show that new graphics drivers are available? | 22:09 |
| maco | you cant install them on a live cd as they require a reboot, but if they're listed in there, you should be alright | 22:09 |
| ubuntu | nope | 22:09 |
| mr-rich | rork: I'm using kubuntu, but I run a few gnome apps (ie: evolution) and I need to configure some default gnome apps ... | 22:10 |
| ubuntu | ok but tell me how do i look for graphic drivers i did type that on kpackage kit and it found nothing | 22:11 |
| rork | ubuntu: System > Additional Drivers | 22:13 |
| ubuntu | i did that and it says that there are no propietary drivers in use on this system | 22:14 |
| ubuntu | my pc do not have nvidia hardware | 22:14 |
| rork | Which graphics card do you have? | 22:15 |
| ubuntu | i do not know how can i find that out? | 22:15 |

| drbobb | hey, what's a quick solution to recode some flac files to mp3? | 23:30 |
| afief | drbobb: ffmpeg recodes everything, but it probably isn't the optimal solution | 23:31 |
| afief | drbobb: you could decode flac, pass the decoded stream to lame and have it produce the mp3 | 23:31 |
| drbobb | so what can do the job quick on a kde system? | 23:32 |
| afief | You mean a GUI? | 23:32 |
| drbobb | afief: a single command would be ok if such existed | 23:32 |
| drbobb | I do use CLI a lot but I don't want to spend the evening reading manpages for a couple of songs | 23:33 |
| afief | well, I don't have any flac files lying around byt try this: ffmpeg -i original.flac output.mp3 | 23:33 |
| drbobb | sox doesn't do flac does iit? | 23:33 |
| afief | excuse my ignorance but what it sox? | 23:34 |
| drbobb | Sox is the Swiss army knife of sound processing. | 23:34 |
| drbobb | well that phrase was coined back in the '90s | 23:35 |
| afief | funny... I'd expect a swiss army knife of sound to support flac :-) oh well | 23:35 |
| drbobb | like I said, it's 1990s vintage | 23:35 |
| afief | but last release was april last year, flac has been around for a long time | 23:37 |
| drbobb | I tried several of the less known multimedia utils from the repos | 23:37 |
| drbobb | most of them are terminally buggy | 23:37 |
| drbobb | yep, ffmpeg at least works | 23:39 |
| drbobb | I think I saw there was a gnome-sound-converter util, but I'm afraid it might pull in most of the rest of gnome behind it | 23:40 |
| drbobb | funny that kde has no such util | 23:40 |
| drbobb | yikes, ffmpeg defaults to 64kbps for mp3 output | 23:41 |
| drbobb | down to reading manpages after all *sigh* | 23:41 |
| drbobb | aargh there are about 5000 different possible options | 23:47 |
| afief | drbobb: if I'm not mistaken it's the -ab flag(check the units though I think it's in bytes nowadays) | 23:54 |
| afief | drbobb: with ffmpeg coding up a converter shouldn't take more than a day's work | 23:54 |
| drbobb | yeah I sort of figured out the -ab | 23:54 |
| drbobb | I can't figure out how to get VBR though | 23:55 |
| drbobb | afief: a good converter would take a LOT more | 23:55 |
| drbobb | there exist about a dozen half-baked buggy ones | 23:55 |
| afief | drbobb: of course that is true, but I guess the issue here is that most of them try to reinvent what already exists | 23:57 |
| valorie | drbobb: Amarok now has transcoding built-in | 23:59 |
| valorie | it uses ffmpeg to do the work | 23:59 |
