| roadfish | any idea why logging into KDE would fail? I log in and get those start up icons ... but then it fails and I get the KDE log in again. | 00:31 |
| roadfish | I get to the KDE desktop when using the Natty live CD ... but after doing a harddrive install, then the start up icons only get through two of the five icons. | 00:32 |

| gremset | what is the shortuct to display Advamced > Special application settings. I basically got ridof the title bar and can't figure out to get the right clikc menu on title popup. | 01:55 |
| lsv | so I change my /etc/default/grub file from GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash" to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="text quiet splash" and now Ubuntu starts in text mode, the problem is that when Ubuntu finish booting up I need to press Ctrl + Alt + F[1-6] to log in, is there any way to boot to any of the ttys? | 02:01 |
| James147 | gremset: alt+F3 | 02:02 |
| gremset | James147: that is it, thanks | 02:02 |
| James147 | lsv: what happens if you remove the "text quite splash" entirly? | 02:03 |
| lsv | I don't know. Haven't tried that. | 02:04 |
| lsv | I shall try that and be right back. | 02:06 |
| lsv | James147: after removing "text quiet splash" and just leaving "", Ubuntu booting to the GUI login screen | 02:12 |
| James147 | lsv: and you want to it boot to the shell? try adding "3" to the end of that line instead (boots to init level 3 "consol mode" | 02:13 |
| lsv | James147: like this? GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="3" | 02:14 |
| James147 | yes | 02:15 |
| James147 | lsv: note you can reboot and edit the menu there to test it rather then running grub-update all the time :) | 02:15 |
| lsv | James147: at the grub screen right? Just press 'e' to edit the command, right? | 02:17 |
| James147 | yea | 02:17 |
| lsv | ok, I'll give it a try :D. I'll be back in a few minutes. Thanks for the help ;] | 02:18 |

| bronze | Hi, does the upstart system have a specific command that is supposed to be used to alter the inetd configuration files, (analogous to chkconfig) or do we just do it the old way, by editing them and sending a HUP to inetd? | 02:45 |
| frogonwheels | bronze: you talking about /etc/init.d/* or /etc/init/* | 02:58 |
| bronze | frogonwheels: neither, /etc /inetd | 02:58 |
| frogonwheels | bronze: reading properly now. you can use reload inetd if inetd is a new script.. otherwise /etc/init.d/inent reload should do the trick no? | 03:01 |
| frogonwheels | bronze: by new script - I mean defined in /etc/init/ for proper use with upstart config vs old-style sys V compat. | 03:02 |
| bronze | I dunno. the inetd daemon has to re-read its conf files to get the new info in. I dont know what the reload command does. Isn't reload for the upstart system? | 03:02 |
| bronze | heh, our responses passed each other in transit | 03:03 |
| frogonwheels | either way, /etcinit.d/inetd reload should tell you if it's a new-style upstart script | 03:04 |
| bronze | frogonwheels: ok, yes, looks like reload is the answer. Thank you. | 03:05 |
| frogonwheels | bronze: man reload look like it links to initctl | 03:05 |
| bronze | initctl? sound like a foreign swear word! a particularly potent one at that. :-) | 03:06 |
| frogonwheels | bronze: *ctl is a fairly common name for programs that send signals to others , but yes :) | 03:07 |
| bronze | in the inetd script reload sends aHUP signal to inetd and inetd re-reads its conf file when it gets a HUP. | 03:07 |
| frogonwheels | bronze: that would be again, a fairly common way o fdoing it. | 03:07 |
| bronze | mucho gracias | 03:08 |
| frogonwheels | bronze: no probs. | 03:08 |

| dundee | Hi all | 06:33 |
| dundee | How to kde 4.6.3 in kubuntu please. | 06:33 |
| TeslaTony | I just got a nifty Kubuntu install going, and would like to personalize a bit. But when I go to the theme manager, and install a new theme from the net, it doesn't show any new ones, even though I'm told it's installed. Help? | 06:35 |
| dundee | @TeslaTony: What I do sometimes if that doesn't work is to go to kde-look.org and download and install manually still using the theme manager | 06:37 |
| TeslaTony | dundee: Ah. So something of a known bug? | 06:39 |
| dundee | @TeslaTony: Well I haven't been changing the default theme for sometime now. I know it used to happen and that's how I usually solve the problem. | 06:42 |

| === bunny_ is now known as bunnycarrots | ||
| bunnycarrots | So I have just done a clean install of Kubuntu. I have some issues with my mouse(focus issues) It's a known issue with the mouse and there is this known fix: (http://fcns.eu/2011/04/cyborg-rat-7-mouse-under-linux/) | 07:36 |
| bunnycarrots | But | 07:36 |
| bunnycarrots | Xorg.conf has been depreciated | 07:36 |
| bunnycarrots | So... how would I go about fixing this? | 07:37 |
| bunnycarrots | I run GNOME on my laptop, have tried the fix there and it works flawlessly. Just not sure how to go about this on the KDE end of things. | 07:37 |
| gennro | you can still use the xorg.conf file | 07:39 |
| bunnycarrots | it doesn't exist | 07:39 |
| Tm_T | you can create it | 07:39 |
| bunnycarrots | oh, really? | 07:39 |
| gennro | yup | 07:39 |
| gennro | I use it to set nvidia options | 07:39 |
| Macer | well... even with cuda this thing has a problem keepign up with 1080p | 07:39 |
| Macer | :) | 07:39 |
| Macer | vlc skips | 07:39 |
| Tm_T | I wonder if this helps to get you started https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution | 07:40 |
| Macer | although it does a much better job than dragon or mplayer without cuda | 07:40 |
| bunnycarrots | is there anything that needs to be in there other than the fix? like some heading or such? | 07:40 |
| gennro | cause AFIK there is no other way to set nvidia based device options without it | 07:40 |
| Macer | which is odd because the same hardware running coreavc kicked ass for this sort of thing | 07:40 |
| gennro | i'll pastebin my xorg.conf | 07:41 |
| gennro | so you can change it to your liking | 07:41 |
| Tm_T | bunnycarrots: I'm not entirely sure, you can try simply having that part first | 07:41 |
| Macer | heh | 07:41 |
| Macer | there's no more xorgconfig ? | 07:41 |
| Tm_T | gennro: it's better if he had the absolute minimum required in the conf | 07:41 |
| Macer | :) well.. used to be xf86config | 07:41 |
| Macer | where you had to go through the questions? | 07:41 |
| * Macer remembers that torture | 07:41 | |
| bunnycarrots | Tm_T Actually I think I solved it. The ati drivers created a very basic xorg conf for me, so I'm adding it to the end | 07:42 |
| bunnycarrots | awesomesauce | 07:42 |
| bunnycarrots | thanks everyone~! ^_^ | 07:42 |
| Tm_T | bunnycarrots: ah, that's very good | 07:42 |
| gennro | http://pastebin.com/Fb9vV9af | 07:42 |
| Macer | i sure wish this cuda stuff worked better | 07:42 |
| Macer | i'll have to test it out some more | 07:42 |
| Macer | at least vlc finally supports it :) that's always a plus | 07:43 |
| bunnycarrots | reboot time, wish me luck xD and thanks again | 07:43 |

| ashwin | chromium browser is not responding | 12:59 |
| ashwin | anyone there | 13:01 |
| kurtul | ashwin: it never works? | 13:03 |
| ashwin | it worked before | 13:04 |
| kurtul | but now you launch it, and it never responds? | 13:04 |
| ashwin | yes | 13:05 |
| kurtul | what about the other browsers? do you have chrome? | 13:05 |
| ashwin | others browsers are working.no chrome | 13:06 |
| kurtul | ashwin: I would remove ~/.config/chromium and try again. i don't know if there's another way to fix it. | 13:11 |
| ashwin | how to delete that | 13:14 |
| === shrinivasan is now known as shrini-afk | ||

| arnoud_ | hi, i'm having some trouble with the phonon / audio setup. without a notice it just 'changes' to pulse audio server. I haven't touched an audio device at that time. It really seems random. which application can do that? | 13:16 |
| ashwin | still not working | 13:19 |
| kurtul | ashwin: did you kill and relaunch it? | 13:21 |
| ashwin | no | 13:21 |
| ashwin | kill?? | 13:21 |
| kurtul | ashwin: press ctrl+esc, select chrome process (or processes if more than one) and click end process. | 13:23 |
| === shrini-afk is now known as shrinivasan | ||
| kurtul | arnoud_: did you try to remove pulseaudio? | 13:23 |
| arnoud_ | kurtul: well in the phonon audio i tried it, i haven't tried it with packages, is that what you mean? | 13:24 |
| === shrinivasan is now known as shrini-afk | ||
| arnoud_ | ashwin: you can also try in the commandline killall chromium-browser | 13:25 |
| ashwin | kurtul:no chrome process in it | 13:25 |
| kurtul | arnoud_: yes. not because i know something. but whenever i have sound problems with skype, i remove pulseaudio package and it fixes the problem. that's why i thought it might help | 13:26 |
| arnoud_ | still it intrigues me to no end which program can just 'change' my internal audio setup (which has both my coax digital and my analog output at the samen time.) i have an idea that it can be amarok, but i'm not sure how since it just happens in the middle of normal playing | 13:28 |
| arnoud_ | ashwin: what is the problem with chromium actually? | 13:29 |
| ashwin | it is not responding | 13:30 |
| kurtul | ashwin: can you try: ps aux| grep chromium | 13:31 |
| kurtul | does that give any output? | 13:32 |
| ashwin | ashwin 2234 0.0 0.0 4156 864 pts/1 S+ 18:02 0:00 grep --color=auto chromium | 13:32 |
| arnoud_ | ashwin: do you mean it doesn't respond after you killed the process of just right after you launched it? | 13:35 |
| ashwin | after i launched | 13:36 |
| arnoud_ | i'm not sure how linux handles plugins or add-ons with chromium.. are they all in ~.chromium/ ? | 13:37 |
| ashwin | i dont know | 13:38 |
| ashwin | i just deleted it | 13:38 |
| kurtul | ashwin: do you still have chromium frozen on the screen? | 13:38 |
| arnoud_ | otherwise kill -9 PID (of chromium would do best :D) | 13:39 |
| ashwin | kurturl:no,it is in taskbar for sometime | 13:40 |
| kurtul | can you try: kill -9 2234 | 13:41 |
| ashwin | no such process | 13:41 |
| kurtul | in this case the only thing i would think is rebooting the computer i guess. | 13:42 |
| ashwin | i tried that | 13:43 |
| kurtul | did you try it after deleting? | 13:44 |
| ashwin | no | 13:44 |

| greek | how can i turn off the drag window feature of kubuntu ? i like the drag window with window titlebar, not the drag window with ehat ever else you can click and hold.. this extra ability interfears with one of my apps ... :( | 14:49 |
| greek | i checked the system settings.. in mouse and window behaviour and found nothing to altet this .. | 14:49 |
| greek | any body know how to fix this ? | 14:51 |
| greek | o | 14:51 |
| greek | o_O any body home ? | 14:51 |

| greek | do people join an irc channel for the soul reason of showing up on a user list box in an irc client ? | 14:53 |
| * Pici shrugs | 14:53 | |
| greek | :) | 14:53 |
| Pici | I'd answer, but I don't use KDE myself. | 14:53 |
| greek | no answer is ok... every one afk is irritating .. | 14:53 |
| DarthFrog | greek: Perhaps folks don't know the answer to your question. | 14:54 |
| greek | perhaps DarthFrog | 14:55 |
| greek | it is nt that i was not answered, it is that no one is even talking | 14:55 |
| DarthFrog | Chacun a son gout. | 14:56 |
| DarthFrog | This is a tech support channel not a talk/social channel. For that you want #kubuntu-offtopic. | 14:56 |
| greek | any idea where io can find the answer to this problem DarthFrog ? | 14:56 |
| greek | oh... ic | 14:56 |
| DarthFrog | I'm not sure what your problem is. I couldn't parse your statement. | 14:57 |
| greek | either way, there are no users (of this huge list) asking questions | 14:57 |
| DarthFrog | Again, each to their own. | 14:57 |
| greek | i can structure the question differently | 14:57 |
| DarthFrog | You might want to structure it so you clearly communicate. | 14:58 |
| DarthFrog | But I'm only going to tell you that it'll be done in SystemSettings, which you've already tried. | 14:58 |
| DarthFrog | But, FWIW, only by grabbing the title bar can I move my window. | 14:59 |
| greek | Kubuntu has a feature (like windows and mac) that alows the grabbing and dragging of a window by it's title bar. kubuntu seems to go a step further and alows you to grab open areas inside the window to drag the window. | 15:00 |
| === zero is now known as Guest69277 | ||
| DarthFrog | When I do that, the contents of what the mouse moves over is selected. | 15:01 |
| DarthFrog | At least it does in this IRC client window (Konversation). | 15:01 |
| greek | this added feature prevents me from operating one of a programs because when i drag the pionter inside of that window it moves the window.. | 15:01 |
| DarthFrog | Or in dolphin, a rectangular selection box is made. | 15:01 |
| DarthFrog | Just in that program or in all windows? | 15:02 |
| greek | just the one program | 15:02 |
| greek | "recordmydesktop" | 15:02 |
| DarthFrog | Umm, perhaps its not KDE that's causing your problem? | 15:02 |
| greek | i am unable to complete the creation of a rectangle area. | 15:03 |
| greek | my intention was to turn the added feature off. | 15:03 |
| DarthFrog | It would seem to me that if it happened in all programs, it would be a KDE issue. But if it's specific to one program, then the resolution of that issue probably lies in the configuration of that program. | 15:04 |
| greek | for example: in this irc client (quassel IRC) i can click on the right side of the menu bar and move this window | 15:04 |
| kaj | morning | 15:05 |
| greek | hi kaj | 15:05 |
| kaj | showing wife how irssi works on irc without a gui | 15:05 |
| greek | good, gui dependency limits our ability to reason :p | 15:06 |
| DarthFrog | kaj: And how is your wife responding to life at the CLI? :-) | 15:06 |
| greek | so, i suspect restricting window move to the title bar is not possable... | 15:07 |
| greek | bitchx was nice :D | 15:07 |
| kaj | wife prefers her way..W7 and all that goes with it :) | 15:07 |
| greek | M$ winddoze ... o_O | 15:08 |
| DarthFrog | kaj: Don't fight battles you can't win. :-) | 15:08 |
| greek | thanks DarthFrog | 15:08 |
| kaj | I'll join you guys in a few mins where the font is readable ...it's much too small to red ar this distance | 15:09 |
| DarthFrog | greek: You're welcome. As I said, I can't duplicate your problem; I'm running Natty with KDE SC 4.6.2 | 15:09 |
| greek | when you take a cource in M$Office, students are expected to know keyboard shortcuts because they are faster then operating the GUI :p | 15:09 |
| BluesKaj | eyes are still watering from the strain :) | 15:11 |
| greek | with linux, you are not forced into buying more ram and hard drive space .. these become optional because there is no drive create obsoletion (pardon spelling errors) | 15:12 |
| greek | windows was desinged to require more ram, more storage, faster CPUs, faster system boards, third party software, and so on.. by design , you will be perpetially busy with a intentionally flawed system.. | 15:13 |
| greek | mac is no ommited from this feature | 15:14 |

| claviceps_ | hi, just installed 11.04 and now all my videos (dragon player, vlc, ...) have a wrong hue (i.e. all the people are blue); what's going on? | 15:28 |
| greek | is your GFX driver installed claviceps_? | 15:29 |
| claviceps_ | sure, the recommendet nvidia driver | 15:30 |
| nucleophase | greek: I think #kde is the channel you're looking for. | 15:31 |
| greek | have you tried " x server color correction" in the "nvidia x server settings" ? | 15:31 |
| greek | thanks nucleophase | 15:31 |
| greek | claviceps_: ? | 15:32 |
| * greek also has an nvidia | 15:33 | |
| * greek is in #kde | 15:33 | |
| claviceps_ | why should i? that's a global setting (and doesn't include hue); everything else has the correct color, just videos don't | 15:34 |
| greek | oh... then this is beyond my ability to assist claviceps_ | 15:34 |
| claviceps_ | aaah, wait, "xvideo settings" has a hue slider which actually only affects video output :) | 15:35 |
| greek | what videos are you playing ? web? local? | 15:35 |
| claviceps_ | local | 15:35 |
| greek | oh, very well then :) | 15:35 |
| claviceps_ | and while we are at it: does playing video from a samba share work for you? | 15:35 |
| BluesKaj | I have nvidai graphics on 2 machines , never encountered such a problem | 15:35 |
| BonesOfTheNight | Hello. I wonder, is there a way to disable the Dolphin feature that makes a context menu whenever you drag a file? It's really annoying. | 15:36 |
| greek | never tried LAN streaming in linux | 15:36 |
| greek | why disable the context menu ? and i also do not see an option to disable this. | 15:39 |
| greek | i did find an option to add move/copy and delte to it though :) | 15:40 |
| greek | delete* | 15:40 |
| claviceps_ | damnit, restarting the player reset the nvidia settings .... | 15:40 |
| greek | try konqueror ... :) | 15:41 |
| greek | BonesOfTheNight: | 15:41 |
| greek | you are not stuck with only dolphin | 15:42 |
| greek | this sint windoze :p | 15:42 |
| greek | isnt* | 15:42 |
| BonesOfTheNight | I like Dolphin. But that feature that activates the context menu just for dragging, is really annoying, I'll check Konqueror now. | 15:42 |
| BonesOfTheNight | Konqueror has the same feature! :( | 15:43 |
| greek | i know that konqueror was in use long before dolphine in linux distrobutions | 15:43 |
| greek | oh... | 15:44 |
| * greek checks konq's settings | 15:44 | |
| BonesOfTheNight | I mean, it's not a deal breaker, but every time I give KDE another try, it's the little things that bug me. So this time I decided I'd ask and try to tweak it. | 15:44 |
| BonesOfTheNight | Well, I'm checking Konqueror's settings. At least it's more KDE 3.x, it has lots of options. | 15:45 |
| greek | wow, the menu options are seemingly identical | 15:45 |
| * greek shrugs ... | 15:46 | |
| BonesOfTheNight | :( | 15:46 |
| tcmartins | Is there any particular reason for knotify4 to use 100% cpu? | 15:47 |
| greek | concider yourself better off BonesOfTheNight, claviceps_ has local video playback color issues and i am not able to use the opengl rendering of the kde desktop effects (this limits the number of desktop effects features a get to use) | 15:48 |
| greek | all in all, i think claviceps_ is worse off then both of us together BonesOfTheNight ;) | 15:48 |
| greek | if i use opengl, i get soem blank windows | 15:49 |
| greek | some* | 15:49 |
| BonesOfTheNight | Yes. That puts things into perspective. I can say that right now, KDE4 is *working* for me. | 15:50 |
| BonesOfTheNight | Another thing, in Konqueror I've got video thumbnails activated, but I get no thumbnails. Why? It works in Dolphin. | 15:52 |
| BluesKaj | konqueror hasn't been worked on much since kde 3 as a file manager...dolphin became the default | 15:54 |
| BluesKaj | it doesn't even work very well as browser anymore | 15:55 |
| BonesOfTheNight | BluesKaj: why was Konqueror left behind like that? It was like a symbol of KDE. | 15:57 |
| claviceps_ | wonderfull, while searching for a solution i found a "solved" bugreport from 2007 with the exact same problem .... | 15:59 |
| BluesKaj | BonesOfTheNight, not sure , I think there was power struggle amongst the devs about which direction kde was going to go...some thought konq was becoming too bloated and clunky , ok as browser but it shouldn't manage files , so dolphin was chosen...that was one story I heard | 16:05 |
| e_t_ | A couple of times lately, I've restarted my computer normally and had it come back up showing disk errors. So far, an fsck makes everything OK again, but I wonder if my hard drive is on the way to failure? | 16:07 |
| claviceps_ | e_t_: check what S.M.A.R.T tells you | 16:08 |
| e_t_ | S.M.A.R.T. gives it a clean bill of health. | 16:08 |
| e_t_ | But disk errors aren't a good thing. | 16:08 |
| BonesOfTheNight | BluesKaj: well, that's too bad. :( But Dolphin is all right, I guess. Konqueror seems more configurable. | 16:10 |
| wea0 | Since the upgrade to Kubuntu 11.04 (amd64) my virtual terminals are broken. When I press Ctrl+Alt+FX all I get is a black screen with a blue line on top. | 16:10 |
| claviceps_ | wea0: i get the all the time when updating graphics drivers | 16:12 |
| shane4kubuntu | sometimes, I accidentally mouse up in the left hand corner, and up pop all my windows on my screen, however I can't seem to figure out the how to reproduce this? Any ideas? Also where is this configured at? I kind of like it. | 16:13 |
| claviceps_ | this is really retarded; do they want to fore people to stop using nvidia/ati graphics cards? | 16:13 |
| BluesKaj | BonesOfTheNight, what's the prob with dolphin , in your case. | 16:13 |
| trickshot | hi | 16:13 |
| wea0 | shane4kubuntu: System settings -> workspace -> workspace -> screen edges | 16:14 |
| shane4kubuntu | wea0: thanks, | 16:14 |
| BluesKaj | claviceps_, which nvidia card and driver are you using | 16:15 |
| BluesKaj | ? | 16:15 |
| trickshot | I have 3 users and I'm trying to let one of them login without the need of a password. I have selected the Activate authentication without password and selected the user but it doesn't work. How can I do this? | 16:16 |
| claviceps_ | it's a 8400; the driver is the "recommendet" one; very clever that the don't write the version number there | 16:16 |
| tcmartins | hmm, does anyone know anything about knotify4 and kded4 using 100% cpu? | 16:17 |
| claviceps_ | tcmartins: had that yesterday; is the owner of the process by any chance root? | 16:18 |
| BonesOfTheNight | BluesKaj: I don't have a real problem, just a nuisance. I want to disable the context menu that appears when you drag files. Why can't it be like in Nautilus or Windows and just *move* the file? I don't want a menu popping up every time I move a file. It makes the process take two steps instead of one. | 16:18 |
| tcmartins | claviceps_: nope, I am the owner | 16:18 |
| BluesKaj | claviceps_, I have a 8400gs on this pc , connected to a panasonic plasma tv /monitor , I havent encountered any hue probs , the driver is the nvidia-current | 16:18 |
| claviceps_ | BluesKaj: the funny thing is: i didn't have that issue with the upgrade from 10.11 to 11.04; but with a fresh install i everything is fucked ... | 16:19 |
| BluesKaj | claviceps_, after the fresh install did you choose the rec'd driver / nvidia-current, I have to ask | 16:21 |
| BluesKaj | claviceps_, also watch the lingo , pls | 16:21 |
| claviceps_ | actually i didn't choose anything; but during the install i checked the "proprietary packages" which, so i guess, installed the nvidia-current | 16:22 |
| claviceps_ | at least the "additional drivers" program tells me so | 16:23 |
| BluesKaj | BonesOfTheNight, open dolphin/settings/configure dolphin/general/conrext menu/uncheck the "show" boxes ther | 16:25 |
| BluesKaj | there | 16:25 |
| trickshot | how do I copy icons from desktop using console? | 16:26 |
| BluesKaj | claviceps_, run sudo apt-cache policy nvidia-current | 16:27 |
| trickshot | can't find the folder :( | 16:27 |
| BonesOfTheNight | No, that's not it. The two boxes there are unchecked. It still shows a context menu when moving files. | 16:27 |
| BonesOfTheNight | But thanks for helping. | 16:27 |
| claviceps_ | BluesKaj: Installed: (none) Candidate: 270.41.06-0ubuntu1 ... what's going on??? | 16:28 |
| BluesKaj | claviceps_, you don't have the driver installed , choose it in kmenu/apps/system/additional drivers | 16:29 |
| BluesKaj | BonesOfTheNight, that's real odd IMO , I have the same setting | 16:31 |
| BluesKaj | even in the split mode | 16:31 |
| BonesOfTheNight | So you can move a file directly without a popup context menu appearing? | 16:32 |
| BonesOfTheNight | Simply moving within the same folder, a context menu shows up with options to copy, link, or cancel. Do not want. | 16:33 |
| BluesKaj | no I mean the context menu pops up even in the split mode | 16:34 |
| BluesKaj | I think this is a question for the #KDE chat | 16:35 |
| Peace- | BluesKaj: :) | 16:36 |
| BonesOfTheNight | I didn't go there 'cause I figured it'd be full of people with actual problems and they'd ignore me, but sure, I'll try there. | 16:37 |
| BonesOfTheNight | And yes, it pops up in split mode too. | 16:37 |
| claviceps_ | BluesKaj: that fixed it :) | 16:38 |
| BluesKaj | claviceps_, good :) | 16:39 |
| BluesKaj | BonesOfTheNight, I've found the crew at #KDE rather unhelpful over the yrs , but it's worth a shot . | 16:41 |
| BonesOfTheNight | That's too bad. I guess they're busy with meta-problems. Hence the channels name. Now, is there a dolphin specific channel? | 16:43 |
| BluesKaj | no dolphin chat on freenoce | 16:44 |
| BluesKaj | freenode | 16:44 |
| claviceps_ | why is my hostname "claviceps-System-Product-Name"? why was there no prompt for that during install? | 16:45 |
| kubu2 | claviceps_: you were not looking | 16:45 |
| belisarivs | Hello all. video thumbnails don't work for me. I tried to debug it, but I have no idea how. Did anybody fiddle with it before? | 16:46 |
| belisarivs | I tried both kffmpegthumbnailer nad mplayerthumbs | 16:46 |
| ho | my keyboard is not working properly, no semi-colon and shift+most keys doesnt work | 16:49 |
| kubu2 | BonesOfTheNight: not everyone wants that behavior -move | 16:49 |
| kubu2 | BonesOfTheNight: when you drag files, press Ctl to copy or Shift to move | 16:51 |
| ho | chaning keyboard in systemsettings(between the generic types) changes nothing | 16:51 |
| BonesOfTheNight | I don't really want to do that, but I guess it's the closest there is to doing it in one step. You sure there's not setting to customize it? | 16:53 |
| kubu2 | BonesOfTheNight: moving w/o prompt is bad imho | 16:54 |
| kubu2 | haven't looked into it as I'm happy with it | 16:55 |
| BonesOfTheNight | kubu2: well, in my opinion it's practical not to have to stop with every file you move. It breaks the flow. Also, humanity have lived thousands of years moving files in their OSes without prompts and everyone got by just fine. Why so prompty? | 16:56 |
| kubu2 | BonesOfTheNight: bec a move has a delete operation? just to be safe I guess. Thousand years? what planet are you from? | 17:01 |
| BluesKaj | BonesOfTheNight, I think the idea is the optins one has to either move. copy or delete etc ..it does have some advantages fro my viewpoint | 17:02 |
| BonesOfTheNight | I wouldn't even bother anyone with this question, if it weren't 'cause the best file manager I've seen, Nautilus, doesn't get along so nicely with KDE, but that's how things are. :( Dolphin is close, though. | 17:05 |
| === s is now known as Guest46511 | ||
| abkde | can someone tell me what is different between kubuntu update ppa and backport repository? | 17:07 |
| kubu2 | BonesOfTheNight: what is best for you is worse for others. I find Nautilus very lacking like in creating links | 17:10 |
| BonesOfTheNight | Still, I didn't think it was asking too much in wanting maybe a checkbox to disable the context menu. Even it wasn't set to my preference, at least it'd exist. | 17:12 |
| BluesKaj | abkde, the backport is the official release kde version for kubuntu , I believe the update is alpha or beta versions in kde development | 17:13 |
| murali | not able watch youtube videos on firefox. plz help | 17:14 |
| DarthFrog | murali: Why not? | 17:14 |
| MacMan1 | Having some trouble installing Kubuntu, mounting fails early on. Ideas? | 17:14 |
| delac | trying to compile dolphin (and rest of kdebase), but the lib-hierarchy doesn't match that of default installation. e.g. libkdeinit4_*-so files go directly to lib folder when in Kubuntu they are in lib/kde4/libkdeinit. I did take the sources from the packages.ubuntu.com. Any easy way to make this work? | 17:15 |
| murali | i dnt kno. but i can them with chrome. but not with firefox. not only youtube videos but any other streaming videos from diffrnt website | 17:15 |
| DarthFrog | murali: Do you have flash installed? | 17:16 |
| murali | how do i do that? | 17:16 |
| abkde | BluesKaj, but kde 4.6.3 is in kubuntu-ppa now, is it a beta version of kde? | 17:16 |
| murali | i dnt know how to install flash in kubuntu | 17:16 |

| Guest46511 | saminamna waka waka | 17:18 |

| mahi_ | hi guys, i have downloaded firefox.tar.bz2; how can I install this file? can anyone help me with this??? | 17:29 |
| Guest46511 | i can tell you | 17:29 |
| DarthFrog | mahi_: Are you sure you want to install from a tarball? Why not use the official Kubuntu package? | 17:29 |
| Guest46511 | open command prompt | 17:29 |
| nucleophase | mahi_: You should be able to just run the Firefox installer that's provided with Kubuntu. You can find it in Applications > Internet > Mozilla Firefox Browser Installer | 17:30 |
| mahi_ | darthfrog: I am a new user, thats why I have downloaded that. now i want to install that | 17:30 |
| nucleophase | mahi_: If you're new, it's much easier to use the one that's provided with Kubuntu. | 17:31 |
| abkde | BluesKaj, I want it, but i fear adding kubuntu-ppa may bring some unstable applications into my system in the future... | 17:31 |
| mahi_ | cannt i install the bz2 file? | 17:31 |
| Guest46511 | hey darth | 17:32 |
| Guest46511 | execute this | 17:32 |
| DarthFrog | mahi_: nucleophase is right. | 17:32 |
| Guest46511 | cd ~/Downloads/ | 17:32 |

| DarthFrog | mahi_: Use Applications/System/Software Management to install firefox. | 17:34 |
| Guest46511 | it gets struct many times | 17:34 |
| DarthFrog | mahi_: If you install programs outside the package management system (as you are trying to do with the .tar.bz2 file), you can really bollix up your system. | 17:37 |
| mahi_ | searching for that@ darthfrog | 17:37 |

| ubottu | Guest46511: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family-friendly, polite, and professional. | 17:53 |
| murali | there isnt any option abt flashblocks | 17:54 |
| miaggiroach | i agree | 17:54 |
| tsimpson | uhh, backscroll is insane | 17:54 |
| murali | but yes java script is enabled | 17:54 |

| delac | murali: flashblock is addon. Have you installed it? | 17:54 |
| murali | nop | 17:55 |
| delac | murali: good | 17:55 |
| delac | murali: so what do you see when you go to youtube? | 17:55 |
| murali | when i open a page with video, the whole page loads normally except the video space is black n empty | 17:56 |
| BluesKaj | murali, delac , you can auto install flash and java and a whole lot od required multimedia codecs , by installing kubuntu-restricted-extras, no need to compile from source at all | 17:57 |
| delac | BluesKaj: it is already installed | 17:57 |
| murali | delac, if i uninstall and install again, will it work? | 17:58 |
| delac | BluesKaj: and flash shows up in about:plugins | 17:58 |
| BluesKaj | it should | 17:58 |
| delac | murali: I think it might be some configuration mishap on firefoxs end | 17:58 |
| murali | ok, so solution? | 17:59 |
| BluesKaj | if you run FF or chromium | 17:59 |
| murali | but it works fine in windows | 17:59 |
| BluesKaj | chromium ftw , FF is becoming buggy again | 17:59 |
| delac | murali: do you have any other user accounts on that computer? | 17:59 |
| murali | nop | 18:00 |

| delac | murali: well, do you know how to make another firefox user? | 18:01 |
| murali | nop. but i explain, i will do it | 18:02 |

| delac | murali: open Terminal and write: firefox -ProfileManager | 18:02 |
| murali | done | 18:03 |
| murali | a new window opened | 18:03 |
| delac | murali: create new profile | 18:03 |
| mahi_ | can any one tell me what is uBlog standing at my desktop? | 18:03 |
| delac | murali: you can name it whatever you like | 18:04 |
| snikker | on natty my eth0 sometimes run at 100Mbit/s and sometimes only at 10Mbit/s. eth0 is connected to 100Mbit switch. how can i fix this? | 18:05 |
| murali | how can i name a whindow. after entering the command , a new firefox window opend | 18:05 |
| delac | murali: oh, so you didn't get the ProfileManager window... | 18:05 |
| BluesKaj | sudo apt-get install flashplugin-installer | 18:05 |
| murali | nop | 18:05 |
| delac | murali: close all firefox instances before running the firefox -ProfileManager | 18:06 |
| murali | ok | 18:06 |
| murali | yes done, created a profile | 18:07 |
| delac | murali: good. now select it and click Start Firefox. | 18:08 |
| mahi_ | can anyone tell me which software works exectly like dreamwaver.exe???? | 18:08 |
| murali | great. it works. Thanks a lot Delac. u rock | 18:08 |
| delac | murali: but notice that all of your settings are gone | 18:09 |
| delac | murali: or in the other profile | 18:09 |
| murali | ya, all the setting will be in default profile | 18:09 |
| delac | murali: the problem is that your default profile has some configuration that prevents the flash from running | 18:09 |
| murali | ok | 18:09 |
| delac | murali: either you need to locate and remove that setting or migrate all your stuff to the new profile | 18:10 |
| murali | thank you once again | 18:10 |
| murali | a small doubt , everytime i open firefox frm now, will it open in new profile or the old one? | 18:10 |
| delac | murali: I think it might use the profile that was used last | 18:11 |
| delac | murali: but I'm not sure | 18:11 |
| murali | okok , its using the new one | 18:11 |
| delac | murali: anyway this setting is not prefereable | 18:11 |
| murali | thnk u delac | 18:11 |
| delac | murali: you should have only one profile | 18:12 |
| murali | can i delete the default profile? | 18:12 |
| delac | murali: so I recommend you back up all your important stuff like bookmarks and delete the old profiles | 18:12 |
| murali | done | 18:13 |
| murali | thnak you and byw | 18:13 |
| murali | *bye | 18:13 |
| delac | murali: the create new default profile, and import the important stuff | 18:13 |
| delac | trying to compile dolphin (and rest of kdebase), but the lib hierarchy doesn't match that of default installation. e.g. libkdeinit4_*-so files go directly to lib folder when in Kubuntu they are in lib/kde4/libkdeinit. I did take the sources from the packages.ubuntu.com. Any easy way to make this work? | 18:29 |
| delac | ah, ok. now I see. Apparently ubuntu package maintainers split the kdebase source into smaller units and packaged those. And changed the installation paths at that process. Does anyone know if and where those source packages might be downloadable? | 18:39 |
| yofel | delac: make sure you have the neccessary deb-src lines in your sources.list | 18:48 |
| yofel | then run apt-get source kdebase | 18:48 |
| yofel | it'll get you the same source you can get from package.ubuntu.com though (I think) | 18:50 |
| delac | yofel: unfortunately the package I get from there is the "raw" source that has the default KDE paths and stuff. What I need is the package that has those paths set for Kubuntu | 18:50 |
| yofel | the debian/*.install files are responsible for moving the files around during dh_install when the package is created | 18:50 |
| yofel | make install still does the same for our packages, it's dpkg/debhelper that moves the files around | 18:51 |
| delac | yofel: where could I get the configuration files for packagin? | 18:52 |
| delac | yofel: I gues it needs some? | 18:52 |
| yofel | if you want to rebuild kdebase, you can get the source, run 'sudo apt-get build-dep kdebase', modify the package, and then call dpkg-buildpackage in the source dir to build it | 18:52 |
| yofel | that will create new .deb files that you can install | 18:52 |
| delac | yofel: dpkg-buildbackage would know where to install the libs? I mean, there is nothing in the sources that would tell it the Kubuntu specific paths? | 18:54 |
| yofel | delac: curious, what are you trying to do? | 18:54 |
| yofel | delac: there is, in kdebase-<version>/debian/<binary_package>.install | 18:54 |
| delac | yofel: ah, of course, they are not Kubuntu specific, but Debian specific | 18:56 |
| yofel | yes, we share the same package management after all | 18:56 |
| delac | yofel: I just did a little modification to Dolphin. So little that it only modified the Dolphin binary and I thought I could just replace by dropping it in to the /usr/bin. Unfortunately the libs were in wrong places... | 18:59 |
| === s is now known as Guest26129 | ||
| yofel | right, that might not work right | 18:59 |
| yofel | also, I wasn't exactly right. The paths aren't only changed in the install files, but also by the pkg-kde-tools that are used to build the packages, which come mostly from debian | 19:00 |
| * yofel is gone for a moment | 19:03 | |
| noaXess_netubu | something is strange.. sometimes i have no power profile .. and can't change any of it.. | 19:03 |

| BluesKaj | noaXess_netubu, hi... dunno for sure about restarting power management ...sudo service powermanagement restart ? | 19:09 |
| noaXess_netubu | not a service BluesKaj | 19:09 |
| noaXess_netubu | i need to restard kdm that it works | 19:10 |
| noaXess_netubu | BluesKaj: any idea how to reinstall/reconfigure powermanagement? | 19:21 |
| yofel | BluesKaj: deb package builder? | 19:21 |
| BluesKaj | noaXess_netubu, look in system settings/power management :) | 19:22 |
| noaXess_netubu | i mean.. reinstall | 19:22 |
| noaXess_netubu | cause there is nothing, no power profiles to configure :( | 19:22 |
| BluesKaj | noaXess_netubu, reinstal acpid ? | 19:25 |
| noaXess_netubu | no | 19:27 |
| noaXess_netubu | BluesKaj: do you know any commands to control acpi manually? | 19:28 |

| noaXess_netubu | tsimpson: but any idea to restart it.. only stop/start kdm will fix it | 19:44 |
| noaXess_netubu | tsimpson: strange thing: in power managemetn i can't see any profile, in the battery applet i see the profiles but a switch doesnt change anything.. | 19:45 |
| ho | recently installed kubuntu on a eeepc 901 and some keys arnt working | 19:46 |
| tsimpson | I *think* all of that is done over DBus, so it could be lower-level than KDE stuff | 19:46 |
| noaXess_netubu | tsimpson: you mean from kernel? | 19:47 |
| tsimpson | more like kernel modules, but I'm just guessing | 19:47 |
| noaXess_netubu | tsimpson: but... if i just stop/start kdm, it comes back.. until i reboot | 19:48 |
| tsimpson | noaXess_netubu: I can't see why that would work, but power management is a mystery to me | 19:49 |
| tsimpson | maybe some KDE service is malfunctioning? (another guess) | 19:50 |
| noaXess_netubu | tsimpson: yes.. but which one :) | 19:50 |
| tsimpson | is it restarting KDM or just logging out/in? | 19:50 |

| noaXess_netubu | causif power profiles are not available all my custom keyboard shortcut doesnt' work... | 19:57 |
| tsimpson | noaXess_netubu: I'm not too sure to be honest | 19:58 |
| tsimpson | there is a "global" KDE daemon that handles those key shortcuts | 19:59 |
| tsimpson | but if that dies you usually get some notice about it | 19:59 |
| noaXess_netubu | tsimpson: on boot i can't see any notice... .. | 20:00 |
| tsimpson | it should be when you login, it's run per user login | 20:00 |
| tsimpson | or rather per KDE session login | 20:00 |

| szal | evening | 20:02 |
| szal | installing Natty on my other machine, currently at partitioning.. for dual-boot w/ an existing XP, is it adviseable to change the bootable flag to the Kubuntu / or should I leave it as-is? | 20:03 |
| tsimpson | szal: it doesn't matter, grub doesn't care about the "bootable flag". it was for back in the DOS days | 20:04 |
| szal | ah, ok | 20:04 |
| BluesKaj | szal, is the kubuntu install procedure asking this or are you going partition beforehand | 20:05 |
| szal | BluesKaj: alternate installer, manual partition setup | 20:05 |
| szal | BluesKaj: so I _can_ change this | 20:05 |
| pelle | can some perhaps give me a hint, during listening to music via amarok the kde sound backend (phonon) asked me wheter i want to remove my unused sound devices and strangly showing my currently in use ones as unuses. i accidently klicked on yes and now i only can hear system sounds but nothing else | 20:06 |
| BluesKaj | on the alternate install you will be asked where to put the grub bootloader , choose the default , grub will detect you windows partition and include it in the menu | 20:07 |
| BluesKaj | szal, ^ | 20:07 |
| pelle | a couple of minutes before i installed the bad and ugly gstreamer backend and at first i suspected them to kill my sound but after pruging them still only system sound works | 20:07 |
| szal | BluesKaj: ah, that was to be my 2nd question, thx ^^ | 20:07 |
| szal | BluesKaj: because I was contemplating whether to put the Grub2 in the MBR or in the / partition | 20:08 |
| BluesKaj | szal, that grub option will be close the finished install procedure | 20:08 |
| BluesKaj | err near the end Imean | 20:09 |

| anderlia | @yofel: I will, but I would like first to target which module is wrong by manually downgrading dvdauthor and libdvdread4 to their previous version (10.10) | 20:43 |
| yofel | could be, the Xorg log should tell what the problem is | 20:44 |

| zCROSSBONESz | <szal> Is that not too much card for the processor? | 21:23 |

| gennro | the latest nvidia drive released last month | 21:23 |
| szal | gennro: the FX series only runs on legacy (173) | 21:24 |
| gennro | ah ok | 21:24 |
| gennro | forgot about that | 21:24 |
| szal | gennro: other than that, I haven't installed anything yet, just booted up | 21:24 |
| gennro | yeah get rid of the open source nouavu driver and install the 173 | 21:24 |
| gennro | should help ya out | 21:25 |
| gennro | for some reason if you leave the oper source nouavu driver installed it caused all kinds of problems | 21:25 |
| zCROSSBONESz | <szal> sorry ... i was having a braindump.............. | 21:26 |
| yofel | well, no need to remove it, if you install the nvidia package nouveau gets disabled | 21:26 |
| gennro | I had to remove it for me otherwise it would try to load the nouavu driver instead of the nvidia driver for me | 21:27 |
| szal | yofel: no real need to explain the inner workings, I've been on Linux for >6 years now ;) | 21:27 |
| yofel | I'm just explaining the package management oddities, nvidia has a few... | 21:28 |
| zCROSSBONESz | <szal> heck ive been on it for fifteen and still lost | 21:28 |
| gennro | now if you manually install the nvidia driver it blacklists the nouveau driver | 21:28 |
| szal | yofel: but anyway: best way to install nVidia driver on *buntu? pkg or manual? | 21:29 |
| yofel | well, manually as in apt-get, but apt doesn't create a xorg.conf, only jockey or nvidia-xconfig do they | 21:29 |
| zCROSSBONESz | but then i'm 60 | 21:29 |
| yofel | szal: pkg as long as it works, manual install is not supported at all | 21:29 |
| yofel | and tricky to revert | 21:29 |
| gennro | no manually as in download from nvidia and sudo ./Nvidia-installer | 21:30 |
| yofel | (not that it's impossible) | 21:30 |
| yofel | er... ok, but that requires removing nvidia-common and blacklisting the nouveau modules first | 21:30 |
| gennro | yoful the latest 270 installer does that automaticly | 21:31 |
| kubu2 | amarok is flaky with internet streams and seems hung when switching between streams | 21:31 |
| yofel | ah, that's nice then | 21:31 |

| kubu2 | playing streamingdata on streamingdata from streaming data? | 21:31 |
| szal | anyhoo.. cmdline pkg management -> apt or aptitude? | 21:32 |
| kubu2 | apt-get or aptitude whichever is better atm | 21:32 |
| yofel | apt-get, after it installs run nviidia-xconfig (aptitude isn't installed by default since maverick on desktops) | 21:32 |
| szal | ah, any reason to that? I faintly remember back from a Debian derivative that they recommended not using apt-{get|cache|file|whatever} any more | 21:33 |
| kubu2 | sometimes other removes stuff while the other leaves it back | 21:33 |
| yofel | a) disk space b) no point in having 2 apps installed that do the same thing, and ubuntu prefers apt for some reason | 21:33 |
| * yofel prefers aptitude tbh | 21:34 | |
| yofel | disk space as in CD space | 21:34 |
| szal | of course, HDD space shouldn't be an issue | 21:34 |
| kubu2 | they both use APT, just different dependencies/rule processing | 21:35 |
| szal | the thing I disliked in the past about aptitude was it installing recommended pkgs automatically.. is that configurable or hard-coded? | 21:35 |
| kubu2 | just pass --without-recommends | 21:36 |
| yofel | that should be --no-install-recommends IIRC | 21:38 |
| yofel | ah, --without is aptitude, --no... is apt-get | 21:38 |
| kubu2 | yofel: is 4.7 be in 11.11 shortly? | 21:47 |
| yofel | kubu2: 4.7 beta1 release is scheduled for the 25th | 21:48 |
| kubu2 | yofel: how about proj neon? Do they have anything to try for 4.7? | 21:48 |
| James147 | 4.7 isnt out yet ^^ but both kubuntu and kde have a 6month release cycle so every new version of kubuntu has the next version of kde | 21:48 |
| yofel | http://techbase.kde.org/Schedules/KDE4/4.7_Release_Schedule to be accurate ;) | 21:49 |
| yofel | kubu2: well, neon are the trunk builds, which currently would be 4.7 pre-beta | 21:49 |
| kubu2 | I've seen some 4.7 from Chinese source in KDE forums | 21:50 |
| yofel | that's nonsense, 4.7 beta1 hasn't even been tagged yet, so it's still in trunk | 21:50 |
| yofel | if anything those would be trunk snapshots | 21:50 |
| kubu2 | I'm not saying it's been released | 21:50 |
| yofel | same as neon | 21:51 |

| yofel | if not, run nvidia-xconfig first | 21:59 |
| yofel | phoenix_: kill -s 9 should work (SIGKILL), but KNM won't work right after that, plasma will though | 22:00 |

| yofel | not sure, I did try to get a trace of the point where it's stuck once, and it was net lookup from ntrack (whatever that is) | 22:02 |

| gennro | yeah that nouveau driver sucks...... not sure why ubuntu defaults it for 11.04 | 22:19 |
| gennro | would rather have the old NV driver by default | 22:19 |
| vzduch | gennro: because the nVidia driver cannot be shipped by default due to licence restraints | 22:19 |
| vzduch | gennro: and nv is obsolete | 22:19 |
| gennro | I know | 22:19 |
| gennro | but atleast the open source xserver NV driver doesn't cause stability issues.... granted it is only 2D | 22:20 |
| gomiboy | using nouveau with experimental 3d support here (8800 gtx). Works (mostly :) | 22:20 |
| vzduch | gomiboy: iirc, it also worked quite well back on Fedora w/ LXDE and on my other machine on openSUSE before I installed nVidia driver there | 22:21 |
