arrrghhhdoes anyone use firefox on kde?00:01
Mase_wkarrrghhh: yup00:06
arrrghhhMase_wk: any way to... ahem, make it not look like crap?00:06
Mase_wkarrrghhh: well i guess it depends what aspect you don't like.00:07
arrrghhhjust doesn't look like any other kde app00:07
arrrghhhfonts are all wonky00:07
Mase_wkright, that's because it's not a kde app00:08
arrrghhhand the buttons/statusbar just look awful.00:08
arrrghhhi know00:08
Mase_wkit's actually a GTK application00:08
arrrghhhhow can i make it look better tho?00:08
arrrghhhis there no qt version of ff?00:08
Mase_wkno mozilla use gtk00:08
Mase_wkideally GTK would have a theme that looks like oxygen00:08
Mase_wkhowever i don't think they do. I think there is a qt-gtk engine which is a bit of a hack, but you can enable that for gtk applications in qt00:09
Mase_wkthat should be in your settings somewhere00:09
arrrghhhhrm00:12
arrrghhhi have played with the gtk+ theme settings, but they don't seem to change anything.00:14
arrrghhhi am running 4.6.1, perhaps there's an issue with it00:14
Mase_wkdunno, it's really attacking the problem from the wrong direction. qt integrates nicely with GTK, i don't think it's quite as smooth the other way around00:17
Mase_wkat least not yet00:17

Torchthere is a port of oxygen to gtk00:34
Torchunfortunately it does not work with FF00:34
arrrghhhlol ofc00:34
arrrghhhi tried chrome, just doesn't have the integration of addons like ff does...00:35
yofelTorch: oxygen-gtk work reasonably fine here in firefox00:40
arrrghhhi remember that package.00:43
arrrghhhi'll try that, thanks.00:43
arrrghhhyofel: do i need a special repo enabled...?00:44
yofelI don't think we officially backported that, I have it in one of my ppas for maverick https://launchpad.net/~yofel/+archive/backports?field.series_filter=maverick00:49
arrrghhhlol00:52
arrrghhhok00:52
scbTry qtcurve. Seems to work fine with everything. I have no idea what apps are GTK and which are Qt these days00:55
arrrghhhhrm.00:56
arrrghhhi think 4.6.1 has some issues, as no matter which i choose FF looks the same.  i close and reopen FF too.00:56
arrrghhhi guess i should roll back to 4.5.1, not sure how to do that now... i guess that ppa-purge command?00:57
yofelqtcurve was the old default - looks ok, unless you use a dark theme00:57
scbmkdir ~/gtk-bk; mv ~/.gtk* ~/gtk-bk; sudo apt-get install gtk-theme-switch; gtk-theme-switch200:57
yofelppa-purge yes, I don't know another comand00:57
scbPick your favorite theme...00:57
yofelI do wonder why it doesn't work for you though00:58
arrrghhhscb: i've tried to change them (the GTK window appearance yes?) and it doesn't have any effect.00:58
scbarrrghhh: yes, do what I just told you to.00:58
arrrghhhok00:58
arrrghhhscb: thanks!  OT, are those your initials?01:01
scbarrrghhh: I guess they are. Did it work?01:01
arrrghhhyou guess they are?  lol.  yes it did work, thanks.01:01

Mase_wkafternoon all. I was wondering if there was anything i could do to disable akonadi_nepomuk. It is using a large amount of cpu every now and then ( according to krunners task list ) and I have nepomuk disabled from startup and from the settings.04:23
Mase_wkso i'm not really using it for anything.04:23
Daskreechwell if nepomuk isn't using it I don't think anything else will04:30
Mase_wkDaskreech: it seems to be active when kmail is running04:31
Daskreechah yes that might be true04:32
Mase_wki am unsure if it's actually doing anything or just chewing cpu time looking for a non-existant nepomuk daemon04:32
Daskreech#kontact might be able to tell you04:33
Mase_wkthank you.04:33

marktaffHi all.  Does anyone know where the config directory is for kdm sessions in kubuntu 10.10?  I want to hide some of the available login session types in kdm.  /usr/share/kde4/apps/kdm/sessions/ will apparently be overwritten during upgrades. thanks.05:30

Thinkerer68What is the distinction between a NAS and an external HDD?16:33
kiffadid you guys build h.a.a.r.p ?16:36
genii-aroundThinkerer68: An external hard drive usually is connected to only one computer and usuable only there. NAS is storage all the systems on your LAN have access to16:45
Thinkerer68So it ain't a NAS without "Network", right?16:46
Thinkerer68What about RAID capability. Is that a requirement for NAS?16:46
genii-aroundThinkerer68: RAID isn't a requirement, but is preferred. Because why have this storage everyone can use if there's no redundancy.16:48
Thinkerer68Hmm.16:48
Thinkerer68Is there a RAID capable NAS recommendable for Linux users?16:49
Thinkerer68I see some commercial NAS boxes include lots of Windoze and Apple specific "features"16:50
genii-aroundThinkerer68: Most people generally use some old box and stuff a lot of storage in it, then use something like samba and ubuntu server. This is more the do-it-yourself way. But there are also distributions just for this purpose, like FreeNAS16:52
Thinkerer68FreeNAS == FreeBSD16:52
genii-aroundYup16:52
Thinkerer68I wonder if anyone here has a NAS and could commend about what to get?16:53
Thinkerer68genii-around: Thank you very much for sharing your thoughts  :D16:54
genii-aroundThere may be some debian-centric embedded version for NAS as well, but I don't bother much. I have just a few old P3 with RAID5 running samba for what I do here in my office16:54

vanguardIf i enter it, I get "User xx may run the following commands on this host:    (ALL) ALL"19:05

vanguardhow can I get a sudo ssh session? just user@host doesn't really cut it (I need to be root on both systems for using unison---file syncer--- on system files)20:28
DarthFrogThe easy way would be to use ssh with PKI authorization.20:30
vanguardI alredy use that (ssh-copy-id and stuff), but how do I enable that for sudo?20:31

Renegade15good evening21:24
Renegade15I'm having a slight issue here: on bootup, KDE complains that /tmp/[numbers]/.kde/share/config/knotifyrc and /tmp/[numbers]/.kde/share/config/kdedrc are not writable; I've checked, and they're owned by kdm:nogroup rather than my user/group. I usually wouldn't care much, but htop shows that the two processes (/usr/bin/knotify4 and kdeinit4: kded4) are each using 100% cpu time (this is a 4-core-system), and I suspect the issues might be relat21:28
Renegade15ed. Does anyone know how to fix this? I'd rather not waste an entire core just so knotify can idle...21:28
shadeslayeri think the kdeinit4 taking up 100 % CPU is a bug21:30
Renegade15I guess upgrading could help, but all the kde packages are "helpfully" being held back by apt21:32
TorchRenegade15: try a dist-upgrade instead of an upgrade then21:32
TorchRenegade15: also, did you delete those two files in /tmp as root? did they get recreated?21:33
