Question about the desktop effects: when I highlight an option in the spacer where my opened programs are, it opens up an informative bubble with a highlight of the page as well as what it is..this is all fine and dandy, except that it freezes my entire computer for about 2 seconds. The only way to stop it is to turn desktop effects on and off a few times in a row. My [02:05] question is this: is it possible to simply leave it off to begin with? [02:12] how can i resize the disk on the KDE desktop [02:12] What do you mean by disk? The size of the partitions?? [02:15] yes [02:16] the size of the partition [02:16] You can always use GParted..i'd trust that more then doing it from within the OS itself [02:16] ohh ok [02:16] What are you trying to resize it for though? === Heliwr_ is now known as Heliwr [03:04] hi i just inserted a sd card and its not showing up,how do i mount it?

[03:14] zte f102 [03:14] chris166, try putting your phone in mass storage mode, if possible [03:14] its not possible [03:15] chris_____, then there's a fair chance that you can't get it running because the software is written only for Win/Mac probably... I'm just speculating [03:17] so what shouild i do [03:18] chris_____, perhaps Wine can run the software... really not sure [03:19] chris_____, or just do your syncing in Windows and reboot [03:19] i would if i had windows [03:20] try bluebooth? [03:25] is kubuntu as slow as ubuntu [03:26] Depends on desktop effect settings etc. It can be faster or slower, it just depends on what you do with it [03:27] installed ubuntu on new asus laptop and it is really slow ocmpared to win 7 [03:27] kind of laggy [03:28] renegaid: what version is it? [03:29] 11.04 [03:32] slow in what way? [03:35] laggy [03:35] apps load slow [03:35] clicking on something takes a while to open [03:36] renegaid: I heard of that being reported with Unity? the desktop? did you do any updates? [03:37] did all the updates [03:37] hmm, odd, not sure [03:38] I've heard funny stories about Unity myself...you can always try Plasma. It works just fine on my two year old computer[though I'm still using 10.10 at the moment] [03:44] renegaid: do a harddisk benchmark. sounds like a slow harddisk. or a lack of ram and therefore swapping [03:46] 4gb ram [03:46] runs super fast with windows 7 [04:04] Can someone help me out? [04:04] zazaza: with...? [04:04] When I change the sound, kubuntu automatically like changes what is delivering my sound. I'm trying to use my headphones but when I raise the volume it comes out of the computers internal speakers instead. [04:04] How do I fix this [04:06] Are these bluetooth headphones..? I'm not sure, I'm not very well with sound systems and the such on computers..mine is thoroughly messed up from me trying to fix it :P [04:07] just regular ones [04:07] It's like kubuntu automatically figures which one is putting out the most noise and changes accordingly. [04:07] It does it with my speakers too, if my speakers arent loud enough it will just play from the internal speakers [04:08] You might be able to go to 'system settings -> mulitmedia -> phonon' and configure from there [04:11] It's so weird that it does this [04:11] I can understand, I've never had that issue before..but did 'phonon' prove helpful at all? [04:12] Nah [04:12] But [04:13] I realize the problem is that it plays from the speakers, and the headphones at the same time I guess... [04:13] :0 [04:14] Well internal speakers and headphones [04:14] IT's annoying cause I need to be quiet but I Want music [04:15] I can understand...maybe post on the forum site; the knowledge base there is much greater [04:51] hello, i'm having a bit of a problem with the Phonon backend in Kubuntu 11.04.

[04:59] any idea why phonon closes the wndow when I'm trying to get it from the general settings>multimedia screen? [04:59] not just me, it appears. heh [04:59] yes, Isee. [05:00] it might some sortof bug? [05:00] I found one thread in the forums, checking it now. i assume it is. [05:01] no good, Netopoyyo. still lookin. [05:02] yep, I found also a thread, onubuntu following now... [05:03] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/phonon/+bug/769274 - showing a similar bug report on this... [05:03] Ubuntu bug 769274 in phonon (Ubuntu) "Phonon default capture device preferences are not saved" [Undecided,Confirmed] [05:07] alright, in 11.04, GStreamer is the new backend.... I assume some packages, you know, normal stuff to make these changes, for some reason got left out of the distro mayhap (i'm on a fresh 11.04 install). gonna poke around and install some stuff... [05:08] I'm trying to upgrade from 10.10 to 11.04. I get the error message "distribution upgrade process exited with code 1". Has anyone ever seen that?

[05:11] SilentDis: Emmmm. Good question. Let me take a look. [05:12] dan_: there were some hangups I was having in 10.10 with the default x.org distro, and the edgers ppa fixed it for me. I would bet many 'intermediate' and above users figgered that out themselves (like me) and just switched to bleeding edge to make it work ;) [05:12] dan_: if that's the case...

Like waterboarding. [05:17] dan_: I'm quite capable of performing some rather hideous methods of 'forced cooperation', i assure you. i just am unsure where, exactly, they 'live' to perform said torture. kinda like Osama, took a while to find it, but when we did... :D [05:17] Do you want Osama's hard drive? Cuz I do. think he torrents? [05:17] roflmao [05:18] is he a mac guy?

[05:25] alright... time to find out how to just install the xine backend and use *that*, i guess. unless someone out there has an inkling of how to fix it with gstreamer... [05:29] does ktorrent support labels and setting download/upload limits per-torrent [05:29] I am using Transmission right now and it's pretty horrifying [05:29] MK``: ktorrent lets you set limits, yes. not bandwidth-per-torrent, but you can limit by time/seed amount... [05:30] MK``: globally, you can set bandwidth usage. [05:30] Ok. Seed amount is an improvement [05:30] You can totally set bandwidth per torrent! [05:30] :o [05:30] What are you talking about? [05:30] Yay [05:30] MK``: as in, "only seed 'Goat Pron 4: electric boogaloo' till 50%", etc [05:31] X) [05:32] keithzg: I've never used that option, i guess. sorry to mislead you, MK`` [05:32] In Ktorrent, ctrl-L brings up the Speed Limits window, and you can set the speed limits globally and/or per-torrent there [05:32] alguem ai fala portugues [05:32] * keithzg is so wedded to KTorrent partially because such fancy, comprehensive options exist.

[05:34] SilentDis: Ahhh . . . Phonon, not so much. Although I've yet to run across a problem that couldn't be fixed by changing backends. [05:35] keithzg: ahh, kinda what i figured, really. suggestions on that front? fresh 11.04 install, it's got gstreamer only. xine mayhap? [05:37] keithzg: the issue i'm dealing with is I can't select the proper input for it (for use in skype and such). the Phonon UI moves like molasses and doesn't actually change anything... like it's hung up somewhere. [05:37] wtf? KDE applications have options /and/ are user friendly? [05:38] MK``: I switched to KDE for 6.10 (started with Ubuntu 6.06), i've not looked back, heh [05:39] MK``: I booted the liveCD for 11.04 and shreeked like a little girl in horror at Ubiquity or whatever it's called. lol [05:39] All lies.

I'm more in love with KDE than my wife is with her macs.

[05:40] SilentDis: I'm a linux moron. I'm trying to run this purgamacall it. I seem to be failing basic command line. [05:40] i just like how the 'app store' is revolutionary.... never mind that debian has had that for a decade now or so... [05:40] MK'': calling desktop programs 'apps' is grounds for a beatin' [05:41] Yeah, I humbly apologize :P [05:41] dan_l: the purge-ppa thingy? [05:42] SilentDis: Yeah, phonon-backend-xine might save you, GStreamer has always seemed fragile to me; partially why folks are working so hard on the VLC backend.

You could always (although this would be drastic) remove the GStreamer backend, in case that's the problem. Are there any clues why the Phonon config interface is so laggy, like some process gobbling CPU cycles? [05:52] keithzg: I wish i knew. quad core 3ghz, so the meter barely 'blips' no matter what i do... lol [05:53] :O KTorrent even has /tabs/? [05:53] alright, the vlc backend is installed, but it's not showing up at all. gonna do a cold boot, just to make sure it's not something 'waiting for response' or some such elsewhere. bbiab if it is still broken... otherwise, all praise vlc for sound issues in 11.04! [05:53] haha [05:54] MK``: KTorrent has EVERY FEATURE EVER! MUAHAHAHAHA! [05:54] :P [05:54] but yeah, no-brainer. Already uninstalled Transmission [05:55] (actually, sadly it doesn't have any fancy 3D rendering of active torrents... a user can dream) [05:57] The one feature request I'd have is the ability to have 2 things per column. Like, Instead of having seeders and leechers / down and up speed in separate columns I can have one column called "Seeders / Leechers" and the torrent would take up 2 graphical rows [05:57] and it would show, in that column, seeders and leechers on separate lines, etc. [05:59] Huh. I *think* I can envision the interface that you're imagining, but it's definitely nothing that would ever occur to me personally. [06:00] Yeah it's pretty particular. You'd need to sort of add a new dimension to the interface and a lot of options to customize it [06:00] I just like to be able to maximize vertical space as well. [06:02] Ah, I see. Yeah, these days with widescreens the UI consideration tends to skew the other way. [06:04] I like Ktorrent as well. [06:05] Lol the "stop torrents when diskspace is low" setting is 100 MiB by default. That seems pretty low for today [06:06] if I'm ever down to 100meg, I'm in trouble [06:07] I'm always riding the ragged edges [06:07] ...ie. a couple of gigs ;) [06:08] yeah [06:15] accidentally clicked "do not show this message again" for konsole when closing the window with multiple tabs and I would like to reenable it. Where do I go in it's settings as I looked and didn't find it [06:15] Do you guys like quassel? [06:15] 'tis what I used. [06:15] err, use [06:15] Since it works on my phone too, there's a level of comfort :) [06:16] What kind of phone do you have? Jesus. [06:17] No! Quassel for android? Are you kidding? [06:17] the N900, Qt and GTK apps are native to it. === Keshl_ is now known as Keshl [07:53] Audio in Flash videos isn't working on Firefox or rekonq; in the Multimedia phonon settings I have like 7 different analog audios and 7 different hdmi's; I've changed from ubuntu to lubuntu to xubuntu to kubuntu (all on the same machine which I'm guessing is why) [07:56] Does it work in other browsers, ex. Konqueror or Chromium? [07:57] lemme check, gimme a few to apt it [07:57] or is there a way I can have phonon rescan my audio devices? [07:58] well, Konqueror should already be installed ;) [07:58] nope, just rekonq [07:58] and firefox [07:58] ...really? [07:58] Pretty sure Konqueror is there. [07:58] It's kindof part of the base KDE package, unless the world is scheming against me heh [07:59] nope haha well I went from Ubuntu to Lubuntu to Xubuntu to Kubuntu all without reformatting (which I'm getting the ISO cause I feel I'm going to have to) [07:59] also, in the Phonon settings in System Settings, there's the standard "Defaults" button, which . . . might help? [08:00] yeah, yeah, but I thought you couldn't install the KDE desktop without pulling in Konqueror, it's very tightly integrated (used to be the default file manager) [08:01] sorry torrenting the kubuntu 11.04 x64 iso, and when I torrent I get booted off the net [08:02] nope no change [08:05] and no change on the chrome browser [08:05] hmm [08:06] well, making sure everything simple has been tried, have you checked to alsamixer to make sure that PCM isn't set to 0 or something silly? Sometimes that happens. [08:07] yeah, like kopete sounds work and all that, and pcm is 96 atm [08:07] (might have to start it with -Dhw) [08:07] I'm running a dpkg-reconfigure -a [08:07] oh, yeah, but I mean in ALSA; sometimes there's miscommunication between Pulse and ALSA. [08:08] good idea. [08:10] true, pulseaudio still isn't my favorite [08:11] well, thing is, PulseAudio isn't . . . real, right? It's just a frontend/mediator, creating virtual devices. Lets us do fancy things like have per-app volume control, but it needs something (generally ALSA) working in the background for the sound to work in the first place. [08:11] So 99% chance you ARE using ALSA, it's just being controlled by PulseAudio. [08:16] also, I bet if you removed .kde/share/config/phonondevicesrc it would force Phonon to refresh the device list [08:20] Hi I am new to kubuntu,. I susing apt-get and kpackagekit the same thing. [08:21] I mean are tehre any issues if I use apt-get to install packages [08:21] Nope [08:21] will they interfere when I upgrade? [08:21] Both use the same backend [08:21] Oh thanks for the clarification [08:21] just different interfaces for the same thing [08:21] :) [08:22] (there's also Muon, Synaptic, Aptitude, Aptitude-GTK, etc etc!) [08:23] And using them too is the same thing right? as long as the repositories are from ubuntu [08:24] Yup yup. They're all just UIs (or CLIs) for the packaging backend, and in fact all of them use the APT sources list, so they all respect the same repository list === ^V^ is now known as _V_ === lloydm is now known as void [09:38] Hello. Since upgrading to Ubuntu 11.04, the directory/file completion in Konsole does not work anymore as before. When I enter, for example, `sudo mcedit /etc` completes to "mcedit /etc/". That behaviour is very annoying, does anyone [09:38] know how I can fix it? [09:39] have you checked if there's anything in your .bashrc file that's related? [09:40] I didn't change anything there since the upgrade, but lemme see.

That's why I missed that one.

[09:42] no problem :) [09:42] I always find the simplest, most distilled terms are the best; my google search was just [Natty tab completion] [09:43] Yeah, normally I think I'm fairly experienced with searching :> [09:43] disabling the bash_completion will mean losing some good amount of helpful completions too, though [09:43] Of course, I won't disable it :> [09:43] :) yeah, sometimes the terminology just doesn't work out right, but that's what other people are for! [09:44] seems to be a bug in acroreads bash-completion script [09:44] Wicked :) [09:44] Yeah, thanks keithzg [09:44] CarNagE_123: disabling that one wouldn't hurt I'd imagine (: [09:45] Yeah, that fixed my problem [09:45] You have to change a line in that script [09:45] Disabling works too :) [09:45] sed -i "s/_filedir/_filedir_acroread/" /etc/bash_completion.d/acroread.sh [09:45] That fixes the problem without disabling it, according to the bug report and my own experience :) [09:46] ah, nice [09:47] Thanks for your help :) [09:48] * keithzg has learned yet another reason to avoid Adobe Acrobat Reader! ;) [09:49] Yeah, if possible I try to do that too :) [09:49] Kindof astonishing that it could manage to cause a tab-completion bug in bash, though . . .

I need to find the file that invokes it ;) [10:21] i have upgrade to natty. now i have some whimpering sound all the time... and if i try to skype, the other don't understand me at all [10:22] how can i restart the soundserver on kubuntu? alsa-utils are installed, but not possible to use.... [10:22] rethus: does the sound change when you use your microphone? [10:23] no... i only her myself [10:23] seicherlbob: so any file in /etc/X11/ and its subdirectories? [10:23] but no changing with whimpering in the background [10:23] Tm_T: grep is still running. we should see it in a minute [10:24] kdm can run things too iirc [10:24] Tm_T: searching the whole etc directory.... might take some time [10:24] that's the way [10:24] well_laid_lawn: kdm.... sounds familiar. are there any startup scripts? [10:25] seicherlblob: i use 5.1. in pavucontrol if i hear some sound, it switch always between right and left in the headphones [10:25] I haven't used kdm in years [10:26] well_laid_lawn: kdm doesnt look that good either. I'll wait for grep to finish [10:26] k [10:27] latest kubuntu/ubuntu is a total shit, it hangs, brithness stoppped working, skype is segfaulting every couple minutes, good work [10:27] rethus: sorry, i dont know too much about sound. I just know that it can be a pita. [10:27] rethus: can you run alsamixer? [10:27] yes [10:28] then try to mute one channel after another and see, which one might cause the strange sounds. [10:28] rethus: of course you should not mute PCM and Main/Master. [10:29] rethus: but maybe some input channel is interfering [10:30] rethus: you have a 5.1 surround system? is the strange sound only when using headphones or also on your speakers [10:30] same if i use speaker. [10:31] rethus: and it still happens if you mute all inputs? [10:32] no, only the sound (plaing musik or something else) switching from right to left [10:34] "no" means you dont hear it when you mute all inputs? [10:34] hear what? [10:34] the strange sound [10:35] the strange sound is all the time [10:35] but i do a short restat. i have remove pulseaudio... be back up in 2 minutes [10:36] is "the strange sound" some kind of noise or is it like "distorted music" when it should playback music [10:36] omg [10:40] i have deinstall pulseaudio and all works great again. [10:40] rethus: gratulations [10:40] pulseaudio may be good for ubuntu, but for kubuntu it is scrap [10:48] is there a way to trace the execution of a bash script? something like "who called me" or "what process called me" or similar information? === mohamed is now known as Mamo [10:51] seicherlbob: checked cronjobs or .bash_profile or .xinitrc? [10:52] it was before login sorry [11:00] ho [11:02] what setting needs to be set (in Maverick) in order to get the 'upgrade to Natty' notification? The check for updates doesn't seem to be running (I think) [11:02] well_laid_lawn: none of them is used on the system (according to locate) [11:03] well_laid_lawn, Tm_T: I've put some debugging information in the script. I'll reboot and see what happens. maybe it helps. [11:03] thanks so far! brb [11:10] well_laid_lawn, Tm_T: back again... it seems like the script is not executed anyway. [11:11] now i have another problem. I installed a new graphics card (removed ATI X1900, installed ATI HD4850). Works out of the box, but it does not remember my dualhead setup. [11:11] I have to reset it every time KDE is started. [11:23] graphic with nvidia froze while trying to view preview picture of software in kpackageit === mohamed_ is now known as Mamo === Mamo is now known as mohamed_ === mohamed_ is now known as Mamo [11:25] rebooting.... [11:29] Is there anyway to back up my mail on a dimap connection so it can be imported to Outlook and read? [11:29] (Kmail) [11:32] back again. still the dualhead setup is not done on startup. I will have to set it manually (with xrandr). any suggestions where to put the xrandr command? It'd be perfect after start of X and before the loginscreen shows up [11:39] seicherlbob: I havent seen what happened previously, but have you tried using the "save as default" in the display settings in system settings? [12:20] Tm_T: about my ff4/flash thing i reported in the morning.. do you hav ff4/flash 10.2 and 11.04? === yofel_ is now known as yofel [12:29] has somene also this problem in kubuntu 11.04, nvidia latest and firefox 4.0.1: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/5636258/flash-chart-ff401.ogv [12:29] in chrome it looks as it should: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/5636258/flash-chart-chrome.ogv [12:47] Is anyone else getting black windows sometimes? I'm using the latest Nvidia driver. [12:48] Deadite811: there was something about that in the release notes, if I remember correctly [12:49] amichair: I'll check it out. Thanks. [12:57] Blank windows is mentioned in the release notes, but the bug it points to ( https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity/+bug/763680 ) is not what the release notes describe... [12:57] Ubuntu bug 763680 in unity (Ubuntu) "Dash appears under full screen apps" [Medium,Triaged] [12:58] noaXess: I think so yes === kitterma is now known as ScottK [13:43] Help, I forgot my network wallet password. Now I cannot connect my kubuntu to the network. [13:43] How do I flush it..? [13:54] I forgot my network wallet password. Now I cannot connect my kubuntu to the network. [13:54] How do I flush it..? [14:13] I did a fresh install of 11.04. Recently while using build-dep command, I found that apt is configured to install recommended packages by default. sudo apt-get --no-install-recommends ... is what I've to do everytime. How and where can I set APT::Install-Recommends to false?? [14:19] is there a way to trigger power profiles when im not running off AC power? [14:20] i mean, desktop running on a UPS [14:22] ruan: does kde detect you have a battery? [14:22] James147: apparently not, in Global Settings those options are greyed out [14:22] and no battery applet === mren|off is now known as mren [14:22] ruan: you should have a barrty applet (though it might not be on the panel) [14:23] nothing in the tray [14:26] himcesjf: I would think something like this would work... with the appropaite changes for your option: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGet/Howto#Setting%20up%20apt-get%20to%20use%20a%20http-proxy [14:28] James147: Using apt-get with a http-proxy?! [14:29] himcesjf: it shows how to set an option [14:29] Hi folks [14:30] I think any file in /etc/apt/apt.conf.d should be fine, I really dont' remember apt config syntax [14:32] I tried referring man pages for apt-get to find such change. I'm not able to understand how your suggestion will help me set it to not install recommended packages [14:36] himcesjf: that guide shows oyu how to set the http proxy option ^^ i would assume anyother option can be set in the same way [14:39] himcesjf: http://linux.koolsolutions.com/2009/01/07/howto-tell-apt-get-not-to-install-recommends-packages-in-debian-linux/ ^^ mentions the same mthod [14:50] it must be an old pc , if he's concerned abut disk space James147 ? [14:50] or an SSD or just dosn't want uneeded packages [14:51] Is that made by default? [14:51] For current systems? No, I'mnot on old pc. I did a frsh install lately BluesKaj [14:52] Only recently I found that build-dep reflected 450MiB for a pacakge when it used to show ~70MiB for it [14:52] James147: You are right, sorry. /etc/apt/apt.conf method is what I was looking for to include something like APT::Install-Recommends to false which it does with APT::Install-Recommends "0". I didn't see the aliter in your first link.. Thank you [14:53] himcesjf, I haven't seen much concern about not using recommended packages lately , now with ppl usig ssds I guess drive space has become a concern again [14:54] BluesKaj: ^^ also slow connections [14:55] slow conns are always a problem :( [14:55] I'm growing to really like and enjoy kde, and I used to really like Amarok a few years ago, but now Amarok, is probably one of the most confusing pieces of software on the planet [14:55] how can I rip an audio cd to my computer in mp3?
