Walzmynis tehre a way to control what Kubuntu names removable media when it's pluged in?00:05
genii-aroundIt uses the volume label00:06
James147Walzmyn: placing a label on the partition ^^00:06
Walzmyncan that be changed without damaging the existing data?00:07
James147Walzmyn: which filesystem?00:08
Walzmynext300:08
James147Walzmyn: then I believe so00:08
James147Walzmyn: look at e2label00:09
Walzmynbefore upgrading, my backup drive was jsut "disk" now it's a long array of random letters00:09
Walzmynits messing up my rsync commands00:10
James147or tune2fs ^^00:10
Walzmyndid it though partition manager00:10
Walzmynah, that's great. Now I can give rsync a distinct name that won't goof up if another "disk" is plugged in.00:11
Walzmynthanks guys00:11
James147Walzmyn: you could also specify an entry in /etc/fstab using the UUID of the disk and tell the system where you mount it ^^ then you can garentee that that disk gets mounted to a known loaction00:13

skomorokhEver have the root window decide to be ON TOP of wherever windows get opened by default? This is happening to me when using my home dir from a multiple monitor setup in a virtualbox (I pack up my home and take it on the road and just switched my projector to an extended desktop from clone)14:34
skomorokhIs there some way to tell the root window, plasma-desktop, etc. to for sure be on the bottom?14:34
genii-aroundskomorokh: Usually if you put the cursor on the window title bar and rightclick, you get the optiondvanced which has like Keep above other windows, Keep below other windows, etc14:36
skomorokhRight, but I can't see the titlebar because it appears below the desktop :(14:37
skomorokhThe window is invisible. It shows up in the pager, I can click to switch to it. I can even interact with it.14:37

marcelCI have a stupid question to ask18:35
marcelCI minimized koppete how can I raise it to see my contact list?18:36
nautilus_i use kubuntu 10.10, after a reboot i'm in gnome instead of kde. installed AWN before perhaps thats related. is there an easy way to reinstall / switch back to kde?18:36
marcelCnautilus_, try configure kdm settings18:37
nautilus_marcelC: i had that before, i restarted kopete with alt+f2 and changed somewhere in the options to show the icon in the taskbar - if i remember that right18:37
James147nautilus_: if you ahve both kde and gnome installed then you should beable to log into the enviroment you want by changing the menu options in the login manager18:38
nautilus_marcelC thx for helping, but can you help me a bit more specific? i'm a newbie18:38
marcelCafter reboot, Dose appear a screen with username and password?18:39
James147marcelC: and as nautilus_ said, kopete can be set to minimize to teh system tray :) check to see if it is there18:39
marcelCi am searching that menu now James14718:40
marcelCnautilus_,  after reboot, Dose appear a screen with username and password?18:40
nautilus_marcelC no, i deactivated that during or short after installing kubuntu18:41
nautilus_but it sais kubuntu 10.10 in the splash screen18:41
James147nautilus_: then how do you start the x enviroment?18:42
nautilus_i use autologin18:42
James147nautilus_: so you do use the login manager ^^ it just auto logs you in18:42
James147nautilus_: logout, then log back in after selecting kde from the sessions menu18:43
nautilus_James147: you're right, but he asked me if theres a screen ^^18:43
nautilus_James147: okay, i'll try18:43

James147(when you right click something?)18:48
ershadJames147: yes, I would like to open it by pressing 'Alt+space'18:49
ershadJames147: Like, to close a window -  we press 'Alt+Space c'18:49
nautilus_James147: marcelC: thx for your help guys - it worked, after restart it uses the kde-setting, too. That was pretty easy ;)18:50
James147ershad: sorry, the context menu, when yo right click something inside the window or the window menu, when you right click the titlebar?18:50
hellslinger_is there a dev version of oxygen-gtk that will keep gimp from segfaulting at launch?18:51
ershadJames147: yes, the menu we get on right-clicking title bar18:51
James147ershad: then yes, the default is alt+F3 ^^ but you can change it in the global keyboard shorcuts part of system settings18:52
ershadJames147: I'm sorry, disconnected.18:53
James147ershad: then yes, the default is alt+F3 ^^ but you can change it in the global keyboard shorcuts part of system settings18:53

Daskreechlovre: What did you like about it?20:05
lovreDaskreech: it seemed to be a good guesser of what i want, when using krunner, i have to type almost all letters or even the full name of application20:06
lovreDaskreech: katapult seemed somehow "smarter". Maybe its just my impression, could be wrong20:06
hiteshmy system CPU utilization goes 100% many times can anyone help me why?20:06
hiteshand system goes numb.20:07
Raven_workhitesh:  pop open a terminal and type "top"20:07
Daskreechlovre: Krunner learns over time. If you keep typing in the same things they rise to the top20:07
Raven_workAnd tell us what the most cpu-hungry process on your system is.20:07
DaskreechFor example I play Kpatience a lot and would just type in pat20:07
hiteshRaven: what next?20:08
lovreDaskreech: this seems ok. I will see in some time. Thanks for the info, i will give krunner a try20:08
DaskreechI would keep getting paths and other stuff. Kpat was like the 4th thing down20:08
Daskreechnow it's the number one hit20:08
lovrenice20:08
Raven_workhitesh:  And tell us what the most cpu-hungry process on your system is.20:08
Daskreechlovre: if you want you can switch the interface to Quicksand which I have no idea how much it's maintained but it is much more like katapult20:08
Raven_workhitesh:  It'll be the one at the top of the list.20:08
hiteshcurrently its chrome but most of the time it reflects with xorg20:09
lovreDaskreech: the thing is, i like to launch apps quickly, but i dont want my system to get all bloated with redundant software, so i will give krunner a try. If it doesnt work out, i will look into the Quicksand. Thanks for the suggestion.20:09
Daskreechlovre: They are the same thing :)20:10

lovreJames147: i have just installed Kubuntu about two hours ago. Kubuntu 10.10 with KDE 4.5.120:17
James147lovre: you may want to look at useing the backports ppa to upgrade to kde 4.6.x ^^ it has a fair few improvments over 4.5 :)20:18
lovreJames147: any worth mentioning now? :)20:18
James147lovre: improved support and managment of activities20:19
James147lovre: and better orgnisiation of system settings ... that about all I can remember... been using 4.6 for a long time now I cant remember all the differences :)20:19
lovreJames147: how do i switch quickly between activities, since we are at it?20:20
James147Though kde improves on allot of things with every version20:20

dellcan we install the fedora live security package as a whole in kubuntu?20:20
James147dont think there is a shortcut by default in 4.520:20
James147dell: no20:21
delly not20:21
lovreJames147: same here :D Thanx. I wasnt really going to use activities, since i remember it as messy from when they first introduced... But now they seem so lightweight... i must give this a serious try20:21
dellcant we extract the packages from iso and install?20:21
lovreJames147: the shortcut is the same20:21
dellthe kernel is the same rite20:21
mr0wlHello20:21
mr0wlTesting20:22
James147dell: because fedora is not baised off debian and installs things to different locations/ maintains packages ina  different way and has many minor differences that you make it very hard to install packages from20:22
lovreJames147: i have made some activities, and now i cant delete them... ?lol20:22
dellhmmm thx20:23
James147dell: most applications in fedora are also availble in ubuntu though ^^ so why not look for the ubuntu packages for them20:23
James147lovre: as I said, 4.6 improves the managment of acivites quite abit20:23
James147lovre: and is well worth upgrading if you want to use them :)20:23
lovreJames147: seems so, since i cant even name them now :) I should really upgrade...20:24
lovreJames147: how can i do this?20:24

draikI'm trying to get HDMI audio to work, but it doesn't seem to stick. When I do (eventually) get audio out of HDMI, rebooting loses the ability to play audio via HDMI. Is there a way to make it stick?20:42

Obituaryok, thanks, let me see21:01
scottamungahey everybody, I just downloaded the latest drivers for my NVIDIA card, and it is a file with a *.run extension.  What do I need to do to install it? Is there a tutorial somewhere?21:12
scottamungaI tried opening it with Kate, and through that I learned of a nifty tool to open a terminal inside Kate, but I can't get it to execute.  I apologize for my n00bishness.21:13
James147scottamunga: unless you are having problems with the divers from the repos I suggest you dont use the oens form the nvidia site21:13
James147scottamunga: to run it you need to make it executable (if it isnt already) and run it in a terminal with "./scriptname.run" (assuming you are in the directory that contains the script) however that script retuires you to run with while the X enviroment isnt running21:14
scottamungaok21:15
scottamungaI was just having a few problems with glitchy flash videos and emulators21:15
scottamungaI know it could also be problems with Flash and the emulator, but I'd been taught to check your graphics driver first.  Whether that's the wrong thing, idk. :D21:16
James147scottamunga: what version of kubuntu are you on?21:16
scottamunga10.10, with KDE 4.621:16
scottamungaI'm using the flash from the repos and VBA from the repos21:17
scottamungaI tried installing flash from Adobe's website (this was before you warned me not to do that - there haven't been any *new* problems yet :) )21:17
DaskreechObituary: You may also want to turn off desktop effects21:18
Daskreechscottamunga: emulators?21:18
Obituaryand how i do that daskreech21:18
scottamungaDaskreech - I used VBA and ZSNES21:19
scottamungaI'm not anymore though21:19
DaskreechObituary: press alt+F2 and type effects21:19
Obituaryuau21:21
Obituarythanks a lot daskreech21:21
Obituaryits really now much faster21:21
DaskreechObituary: :)21:22
scottamungaDaskreech: Why did you ask about emulators?21:23
DaskreechYou mentioned Flash and emulators. I was trying to figure out if you meant a flash emulator or a emulator for something written in flash21:23
scottamungaoh lol21:26

savpetheris there anybody from kubuntu team?21:47
James147savpether: kubuntu tends to use the upstream themes and hasnt of yet changed from that... thus it is unlikly that they will chose to use your theme as the default21:49
James147:p21:49
James147savpether: kubuntu tends to use the upstream themes and hasnt of yet changed from that... thus it is unlikly that they will chose to use your theme as the default21:50
James147savpether: Also, it would be better to ask in #ubuntu+1 or #kubuntu-devel  ... Though dont expect much from them21:51
savpetherok21:51
savpetherthank21:51
savpethers21:51
James147savpether: though it might be useful to place the theme on kde-look.org21:52

GuiriHowdy. Trying to put Kubuntu 10.10 PPC on an old laptop. The CD loads to the KDM password prompt. What's the login/pass?23:22
areichmanGuiri: did you try leaving them blank and pressing enter?23:24
areichmanhttps://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCD#Troubles%20with%20a%20LiveCD23:24
Guiriyeah. I'll read the help article but I did try that23:25
Guirioddly enough user ubuntu seems to have worked fine. we'll see if the rest loads up23:26
Guirithx areichman i23:26
areichmandid it work? I've never had to login to a live CD23:26
DaskreechGuiri: ubuntu with no password23:32
Guiriactually it just seems to cycle back through KDM when I do that Daskreech23:42
GuiriWeird23:42
DaskreechGuiri: can you jump to a terminal and try that?23:44
Guiriyeah 1 second. It takes a minute to cycle through b/c I haven't installed the ram upgrade yet23:45
Daskreechwait a minute?23:46
Daskreech what cycle does it go through/23:46
GuiriAfter enter is pressed and the login "ubuntu" is entered it jumps back through the KDM cycle, Hard drive, world icon, KDE icon, etc23:47
GuiriDoes that make more sense? Sorry I'm confusing23:47

valoriekmix is useless, just an error message23:55
valorieveromix says everything is working, but there is no sound23:55
valoriein or out23:55
valorieYoutube, phonon-backend test, Amarok, nada23:56
valorieI looked at all the sound help page, but that stuff all applies when your soundcard isn't properly seen by the kernel, or you don't have the proper drivers, etc.23:57
