| Sethiroth | hi | 00:06 |
| gennro | hi | 00:06 |
| Sethiroth | i am wondering how i could make a Icon for Tibia | 00:06 |
| Sethiroth | on my desktop | 00:06 |
| Sethiroth | or shortcut | 00:06 |
| Sethiroth | that | 00:06 |
| Sethiroth | opens up terminal and browses to /home/MYname/tibia | 00:07 |
| Sethiroth | then launchs tibia | 00:07 |
| Sethiroth | anyone ? | 00:08 |
| DeltaEpsilon | is it possible to make the task bar in kde like the super bar in win 7/? | 00:09 |
| Sethiroth | kinda | 00:11 |
| Sethiroth | lol | 00:11 |
| Sethiroth | Like icons ? | 00:11 |
| Sethiroth | or | 00:11 |
| Sethiroth | Why anyways | 00:11 |
| sithlord48 | using kde? | 00:11 |
| Sethiroth | yah | 00:12 |
| sithlord48 | put an icon in your folder and use properties to set the icon for sed folder. idk if it will work w/ every program , but all kde ones should display your icon | 00:12 |
| sithlord48 | has to be Png iirc | 00:12 |
| sithlord48 | sorry click the icon in properties to change it use a stock one or "browse" for a png | 00:13 |
| Sethiroth | can anyone solve my problem | 00:13 |
| Sethiroth | ? | 00:13 |
| sithlord48 | oh you want a shortcut on ur "desktop? | 00:13 |
| Sethiroth | no i want it to open up | 00:13 |
| Sethiroth | terminal | 00:13 |
| Sethiroth | type cd /home/sethiroth/Tibia | 00:14 |
| Sethiroth | then | 00:14 |
| Sethiroth | .Tibia | 00:14 |
| Sethiroth | to launch it then close terminal | 00:14 |
| Sethiroth | but as one icon i cant put anyone | 00:14 |
| sithlord48 | shell script ? | 00:14 |
| Sethiroth | si | 00:14 |
| Sethiroth | yes | 00:15 |
| sithlord48 | make a shell script , make it execuitable. change its icon as described above | 00:15 |
| Sethiroth | ok | 00:15 |
| sithlord48 | you will have to have a "folder view" containment for your desktop or add it to your kmenu so you can put it on the "desktop" containment | 00:16 |
| Sethiroth | soo would i basicly write cd /home/sethiroth/tibia | 00:16 |
| Sethiroth | then | 00:16 |
| Sethiroth | ./tibia on diffrent lin | 00:16 |
| Sethiroth | e | 00:16 |
| sithlord48 | tibia is excutiable already ? | 00:16 |
| Sethiroth | ? | 00:17 |
| sithlord48 | ./tibia (you want to run a program named tibia ?) | 00:17 |
| Sethiroth | its a game | 00:17 |
| Sethiroth | soo yah | 00:17 |
| Sethiroth | but i cant run it by the shell provided | 00:17 |
| Sethiroth | i need to do in manually for some reason | 00:18 |
| sithlord48 | ok right click your game's executable and select properties be sure its got "is executeable" checked | 00:19 |
| Daskreech | Sethiroth: what have you tried? | 00:19 |
| Sethiroth | it is already executeable | 00:19 |
| sithlord48 | that should remove teh need for a terminal to run it by using ./ before the name | 00:19 |
| sithlord48 | so you can click on it to start it ? | 00:20 |
| Sethiroth | it attempts then closes | 00:20 |
| sithlord48 | but it works correctly if you use a terminal | 00:20 |
| Sethiroth | yes | 00:20 |
| sithlord48 | thats weird | 00:21 |

| DeltaEpsilon | kde4 in general is smooth. Only the app Ktorrent is a bit laggy | 00:45 |
| gennro | yeah, pretty solid after all the updates and tweaks I do are done | 00:49 |
| DeltaEpsilon | when I go to the website kde-apps.org with Rekonq, it asks me to save the file safari.jsp | 00:49 |

| gennro | never seen it but I don't use Rekonq | 00:50 |
| DeltaEpsilon | gennro: firefox looks very ugly in KDE4 | 00:50 |
| gennro | you gotta install the kde intergration and branding then install some GTK themes for it | 00:51 |

| aaronth | hello? | 02:33 |
| mrafcho001 | Hey, I'm having a weird bug where I can only run (some) 32 bit applications as root, and cant run them under my current user | 03:27 |
| mrafcho001 | It seems like its looking for some shared libraries under /usr/lib rather than /usr/lib32/, does anyone know whats going on? | 03:27 |
| Daskreech | mrafcho001: are the configs for those programs owned by you or root? | 03:30 |
| mrafcho001 | Daskreech: configs? Everything should be owned by me | 03:31 |
| Daskreech | mrafcho001: You may want to check on that | 03:32 |
| mrafcho001 | Daskreech: how would I go about doing that? | 03:33 |
| Daskreech | if it somehow got written to by root and changed to being owned by root then you would not be able to run the programs anymore only root could | 03:33 |
| Daskreech | I don't know you'd have to check the program | 03:33 |
| Daskreech | Opening ~ and viewing hidden files is a good start | 03:33 |
| mrafcho001 | Daskreech: I'm trying to run either Meerkat SecondLife viewer or Hippo SecondLife viewer. Meerkat is a .bz2 download and simply extract to desired location and run the meerkat executable | 03:34 |
| mrafcho001 | Daskreech: Hippo has some installation to it, but its virtually the same thing | 03:35 |
| Daskreech | mrafcho001: look in your ~ for configs for them | 03:35 |
| mrafcho001 | Daskreech: actually meerkat doesn't run under root either. Only Hippo runs under root. Perhaps its a system wide problem? | 03:36 |
| mrafcho001 | Daskreech: and yes, I see their config files | 03:37 |
| Daskreech | who owns them? | 03:37 |
| mrafcho001 | Daskreech: its all owned by me | 03:37 |

| skierpage | I insert an audio CD, and Kubuntu 11.04 doesn't have an action to play it with VLC! Grrrr. | 04:54 |
| skierpage | So I futzed around in Device Actions to add a similar one for VLC. Now "Updating system configuration" has been running and re-running and re-running 7 bloody times. | 04:54 |
| skierpage | And whenever I do anything on the desktop, the CD audio skips, even though my load average is 0.2. Sadness | 04:55 |
| skierpage | what a crappy experience, all three seem regressions from 10.10 | 04:58 |
| jmichaelx | skierpage: the skipping wouldn't possibly be pulseaudio-related, would it? | 05:02 |
| * jmichaelx freaking hates pulseaudio | 05:02 | |
| skierpage | I filed launchpad bug 542293 about no VLC action in 9.10, seems like it's broken again in 11.04. There are a bunch of "Open with VLC media player" actions in System Settings > Device Actions, but none in the Device Notifier menu, just Play audio CD with Amarok. | 05:03 |

| skierpage | jmichaelx, who knows. 11.04 internet audio has been pretty OK for me. Phonon -> GStreamer -> PulseAudio -> ALSA -> VIA 8237 sound chip, what could possibly go wrong :-) | 05:05 |
| jmichaelx | eh, exactly | 05:05 |
| jmichaelx | does 11.04 switch away from xine? | 05:06 |
| skierpage | hmm, although I guess VLC doesn't (?) go through Phonon? I spent hours debugging 10.04 audio, I guess happy days are here again ;-) | 05:06 |
| jmichaelx | skierpage: all i can say is 'good luck. i fix MOST of my audio problems by ditching pulseaudio.... for me that has been a very dependable fix | 05:07 |

| dan_l | has anybody broken quassel after upgrading? | 05:46 |
| bigbrovar | dan_l: upgrading from which version to which? | 05:48 |
| bigbrovar | quassel runs fine after upgrading from kde 4.6.2 to kde 4.6.3 if thats what u mean | 05:48 |
| dan_l | bigbrovar: 10.10 to 11.04 | 05:48 |
| bigbrovar | dan_l: I wouldn't know. and tbh I never upgrade, been using linux for close to 3 years now and have only upgraded once (still had issues) I always do a clean install. and the only folder I have backed up is my kopete and kmail folders. even if I dont wipe my home directory. I always make sure to delete .kde and in fact other hidden folders. | 05:50 |
| dan_l | Hmm. | 05:50 |
| dan_l | Bigbrovar: You're probably the smartest of all of us. | 05:51 |
| bigbrovar | dan_l: It helps me from feeling paranoid when things don't work right | 05:51 |
| dan_l | Bigbrovar: would you check what port you're connecting to irc.ubuntu.com at? (noob question, I know) | 05:51 |
| bigbrovar | because that way I know am running from a pristine buld | 05:52 |
| zen_monkey | hi | 05:52 |
| dan_l | For giggles, I put otherbuntu up on a vbox. | 05:52 |
| bigbrovar | dan_l: oh am connected to freenode, and I use port 6667 | 05:52 |
| zen_monkey | is there any known caveat to upgrading to 10.0 with TNT2? ...X is complaining :D and not starting | 05:52 |
| zen_monkey | http://pastebin.com/1pategYF | 05:53 |
| zen_monkey | there the log | 05:53 |
| bigbrovar | dan_l: the other ports (which I think is for if u want to use a secured connection) never worked for me | 05:53 |
| dan_l | so what could be going wrong here. Seriously. | 05:53 |
| bigbrovar | zen_monkey: upgrading from which version ? 10.10? | 05:54 |
| bigbrovar | I am having problems getting amarok to see my android device (or any device whatso ever) in masstorage mode on kubuntu natty. clemetine sees them fine with no problem. anyone else experience this? | 05:56 |
| bigbrovar | I installed amarok 2.3.4 and still having the same issue, even though masstorage, and mpt plugins are all checked | 05:57 |
| bigbrovar | mtp* | 05:58 |
| dan_l | BigBrovar: which android device? | 06:00 |
| dan_l | BigBrovar: more to the point, which android version? | 06:00 |
| bigbrovar | dan_l: samsung galaxy S with android 2.3.3 | 06:00 |
| bigbrovar | I dont think its an android problem, even a common usb stick does not show in masstorage mode. I dont have this problem in clementine | 06:01 |
| bigbrovar | now I just switched the device from masstorage to mtp mode and this time amarok sees it but marks it as 0 tracks | 06:02 |
| dan_l | I had some whacky things happen with this: is your music buried? | 06:03 |
| bigbrovar | dan_l: what u mean buried? all my music are stored in a folder called Music on my sd card | 06:04 |
| bigbrovar | I even created the .is_audio file which amarok doesn't seem to respect but clementine does | 06:05 |
| dan_l | bigbrovar: most of my problems came in because all of my music was stored 2 folders deep | 06:05 |
| dan_l | very odd | 06:05 |
| bigbrovar | can u see masstorage devices on amarok? | 06:05 |

| ryan__ | u mean unity? | 06:08 |
| dan_l | BigBrovar: I always see the mass storage device _except_ when I boot the computer with the phone plugged in. | 06:08 |
| dan_l | Unity, plus that stupid stuff they did before by moving the window controls to the left hand side of the screen. | 06:09 |
| bigbrovar | and what version of kubuntu 11.04? | 06:09 |

| MagePsycho | hi guys | 07:08 |
| MagePsycho | how to use kubuntu desktop in ubuntu? | 07:08 |
| slooksterpsv | MagePsycho: you install KDE - I believe you install kde-base | 07:10 |
| slooksterpsv | MagePsycho: you could just install kubuntu-desktop though as well, if you search the software center i'll show it to you if you search for kubuntu-desktop | 07:11 |
| MagePsycho | graphically.. kubuntu desktop is better than ubutnu desktop? | 07:11 |
| aperson | MagePsycho⋗ that's a matter of opinion | 07:12 |
| aperson | anyone know what I need to have installed for dolphin to rip to mp3? | 07:12 |
| slooksterpsv | again depends on the user, personally I like the look and feel on ubuntu | 07:13 |
| MagePsycho | yes but .. i want your opinion | 07:13 |
| aperson | the option was there originally, but it's gone now | 07:13 |
| MagePsycho | ubuntu classic or unity? | 07:13 |
| slooksterpsv | Ubuntu classic, I do not like Unity | 07:13 |
| aperson | so in other words, you like gnome | 07:13 |
| slooksterpsv | Yup I'm a Gnomey, I'm on Kubuntu but I keep finding faults with it so I'm going to Linux Mint 10 | 07:14 |
| aperson | meh@mint | 07:14 |
| slooksterpsv | aperson: audiokonverter as a service in dolphin - is that what you're looking for? | 07:15 |
| MagePsycho | yes ubuntu unity is not so user friendlier | 07:15 |
| aperson | no | 07:15 |
| MagePsycho | than ubuntu classic | 07:15 |
| aperson | aha, had to install lame | 07:16 |
| slooksterpsv | Ubuntu Classic is awesome, Mint uses the GnoMenu instead of the standard Gnome Menu - GnoMenu can be set to look like Vista, Windows 7, customized etc. | 07:16 |
| aperson | and you can install it in ubuntu | 07:17 |
| aperson | silly people, thinking you need a separate distro just to have a different default install... | 07:17 |
| MagePsycho | you mean GnoMenu makes ubuntu classic more user friendlier? | 07:17 |
| aperson | friendly* | 07:17 |
| slooksterpsv | depends on the person, but in essence to people who like the look and feel of the "Windows" start menu, yes, otherwise, no | 07:18 |
| slooksterpsv | http://www.linuxmint.com/ - to see Linux Mint (they have various spins like XFCE, LXDE, KDE, and LMDE, besides the standard Gnome) | 07:19 |
| slooksterpsv | If you want the true Ubuntu look and feel, stick with Ubuntu, if you want the true Kubuntu look and feel, stick with Kubuntu | 07:19 |
| aperson | and if you want any of those desktops, just install them! | 07:20 |
| slooksterpsv | yup =D, if you want to try them out first before making any permanent decisions, install and run them in VirtualBox | 07:20 |
| aperson | eh, it's easy enough to just remove things | 07:20 |
| slooksterpsv | haha well for some maybe, I had to fresh install Kubuntu cause migrating from Lubuntu -> Xubuntu -> Kubuntu made like 6 repeat entries for HDMI audio, Analog audio, and Microphone in the Multimedia Phonon properties | 07:21 |
| MagePsycho | btw i am very new to ubuntu.. just installed 3 days ago | 07:21 |
| MagePsycho | so many things to learn | 07:21 |
| MagePsycho | and i thin this channel is great | 07:21 |
| aperson | I don't want to be that guy, but most of this talk belongs in #kubuntu-offtopic | 07:22 |
| slooksterpsv | true, sorry aperson you're right | 07:22 |
| MagePsycho | http://www.linuxmint.com/ ---> what is linux mint | 07:23 |
| MagePsycho | is it menu custmization tool | 07:23 |
| slooksterpsv | aperson: do you know where the multimedia phonon reads what audio items are installed? | 07:23 |
| aperson | slooksterpsv⋗ the what in the who | 07:23 |

| mase_wk | Giro: then the kernel modules aren't loaded | 09:06 |
| mase_wk | what software were you adding ? | 09:07 |
| mase_wk | you can try to modprobe/ insmod the drivers manually | 09:07 |
| Guest53292 | i installed ubuntu 11.04 and now i have ubuntu and windows 7. the thing is that the first time i opened ubuntu and made the update everything was ok. but the second time i wanted to enter ubuntu i pushed the enter button in ubuntu and a black screen came up with some weird words. i let the pc for ten minutes but nothing happened it didn't let me in | 09:10 |
| Guest53292 | it said something like http://pastebin.com/nAXdDbwa | 09:10 |

| Kaspi | hey guys | 11:09 |
| Kaspi | how to take a desktop screenshot on KDE? Which app would you use? | 11:11 |
| mfraz74 | Kaspi: what happens if you press the print screen button? | 11:11 |
| yofel | Kaspi: ksnapshot | 11:11 |
| yofel | right, that should open ksnapshot | 11:12 |
| Kaspi | mfraz74: nothing and perhaps there's nothing even in the clipboard | 11:12 |
| yofel | Kaspi: which release, and what happens if you press alt+f2 and run ksnapshot? | 11:13 |
| mfraz74 | if I press print screen here, it launches ksnapshot | 11:13 |
| Kaspi | it wasn't installed here, works now, thanks | 11:14 |
| szal | lol, didn't know Klipper content survives a reboot ^^ | 11:15 |
| Kaspi | and... is it possible to make the windows to be transparent in general? | 11:16 |
| * szal tried that too and only succeeded to have inactive windows translucent as a general setting | 11:16 | |
| yofel | Kaspi: there is a trancluceny effect in desktop effects | 11:17 |
| szal | it is, however, possible to make windows translucent on a per-window or per-application basis | 11:17 |
| yofel | an you can set the opacity per-window | 11:17 |
| Kaspi | *OOH SHINY* | 11:18 |
| szal | the general translucency settings don't have a way to regulate translucency for active windows | 11:18 |
| Kaspi | OK! And the last thing I'm missing since I've moved from Gnome - the "places" menu which was at the top left corner panel - I want something that I could open any filesystem bookmark with, in any time. Any suggestions? | 11:28 |

| yofel | mikisid_: run the nvidia installer with --uninstall, that should remove the driver, then check with debsums -s (install it first) what files were overwritten and reinstall the affected X packages | 12:07 |

| bigbrovar | Whats all the news coming from uds about Kubuntu switching to unity? | 13:51 |
| === zero is now known as Guest87850 | ||
| natman | ref | 13:57 |
| shane4kubuntu | WHAT? Kubuntu -> Unity would be bad. | 13:58 |
| natman | is Kubuntu moving to unity?? | 13:58 |
| shane4kubuntu | I said a while ago you will notice an influx of Kubuntu'ers because of Unity in Ubuntu, and that is happening. | 13:58 |
| natman | in that case whats the "K" | 13:58 |
| natman | I think the unity thing will settle down soon, kinda like when kubuntu made the switch to KDE4 | 13:59 |
| bigbrovar | someone just posted on identica about kubuntu switching to unity. surely that can't be true | 14:00 |
| shane4kubuntu | I'm sure it will, when all the unhappy customers have left. :) It wasn't as polished or ready for prime time as Gnome, KDE, or XFCE | 14:00 |
| bigbrovar | in any case anyone else having issues with their printer config tool? | 14:01 |
| bigbrovar | mine just doesnt work after it worked the first time. I filed a bug and never heard anything about it again :/ | 14:01 |
| natman | why would it be called "K" ubuntu then? | 14:01 |
| bigbrovar | does anyone using kubuntu 11.04 use it with printer? | 14:02 |
| bigbrovar | and if yes those their printer configuration tool work? | 14:02 |
| natman | yes me | 14:02 |
| natman | hp laserjet p2015 | 14:02 |
| natman | and plugged it in worked after 4 sec was awesome! | 14:02 |
| shane4kubuntu | hp laser 1022n here, and it works fine, I don't mess with the config tool | 14:02 |
| bigbrovar | shane4kubuntu: niether did I. It worked the first time, and after that it stopepd working filed a bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kdeadmin/+bug/776224 | 14:03 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu bug 776224 in kdeadmin (Ubuntu) "system-config-printer-kde tool won't start on Kubuntu 11.04" [Undecided,New] | 14:04 |
| bigbrovar | I can still print and new connected printers gets added automatically | 14:04 |
| shane4kubuntu | bigbrovar: what printer? | 14:04 |
| bigbrovar | but the GUI for configuring the printer is not working | 14:04 |
| bigbrovar | shane4kubuntu: its not really a printer issue, its the tool for managing them. that is the problem. I had to resort to managing printers via the cups web UI | 14:05 |
| bigbrovar | but printing works and auto configuration of new printers works | 14:05 |
| shane4kubuntu | hmm, I'm not sure, I'm a gnome -> kde convert, and don't know a lot about kde. | 14:05 |
| bigbrovar | but I can not manager existing printers. from the bug report I filed it shows am not alone | 14:06 |
| bigbrovar | shane4kubuntu: yeah its ok. Its just frustrating when u file a critical bug like problem with print utility and no one even bothered to look at it. | 14:06 |

| natman | how did it work out ? | 14:22 |
| nicolas_ | Greaaaaaaat, thanks! | 14:23 |
| nicolas_ | I'm using a french keyboard. The problem I have is that I can't get the cirumflexe accent alone (to wite powers in mathematical formula). However I can write ê î and so on. | 14:23 |
| natman | you using LaTeX? | 14:23 |
| artem | Всем привет! | 14:24 |
| nicolas_ | natman: yes, and Lyx most of the time | 14:24 |
| natman | could you just define a new command? | 14:24 |
| nicolas_ | (I bought a lenovo X220, which works perfectly. Absolutly no prob with linux but the one I just mentioned) | 14:24 |
| natman | or pehaps there is a option to alter the keyboard in the sys-setting? | 14:25 |
| nicolas_ | natman: well, I belive it's not a viable solution, as I would need it in several programs (like email client when writting to my students) | 14:25 |
| nicolas_ | natman: I hope so | 14:26 |
| artem | Hi! People who - some say in Russian? | 14:26 |

| chazwoza | guys... i found a couple of things googling that indicate KDE is slow on intel graphics cards ... is this true? | 14:31 |
| chazwoza | ive tried kubuntu 10.10, 11.04, on my thinkpad with intel | 14:31 |
| chazwoza | and its slow | 14:31 |
| natman | how do i highlight a message to another user? | 14:32 |
| nicolas_ | chazwoza: My laptop is very new, but KDE works super great with intel | 14:32 |
| chazwoza | mine is brand new too | 14:32 |
| chazwoza | quad core | 14:32 |
| chazwoza | 8 gb ram | 14:32 |
| chazwoza | gnome is lightning fast | 14:33 |
| chazwoza | kde just seems to slug | 14:33 |
| chazwoza | im trying to work out if its kde, kubuntu, or my laptop | 14:33 |
| natman | /chazwoza how slow? | 14:35 |
| chazwoza | like a windows machine thats been running a few months :) | 14:35 |
| chazwoza | just menu's etc have a slight delay | 14:36 |
| chazwoza | moving things around is jerky | 14:36 |
| natman | /chazwoza take off the desktop effects, the mess the settings one by one see if any one is a trouble maker | 14:36 |
| chazwoza | and opening a file or running a program seems to take a lot longer than on gnome | 14:36 |
| chazwoza | natman: even with effects off, still sluggish | 14:37 |
| natman | :chazwoza ouch! ( by the way did this message highlight for you ? ) | 14:37 |
| nicolas_ | natman: You were right, I just had to digg a bit in the options. Thanks! | 14:37 |
| chazwoza | natman: yep it highlighted | 14:37 |
| natman | nicolas_: awesome | 14:38 |
| natman | :chazwoza you have any/all drivers that you need? run alt+F2 type driver | 14:38 |
| nicolas_ | So now I can recommand to all of you the Lenovo X220, it is perfect (eventhough there are some bugs reported on internet forums, but I don't know why they do not apply to mine) | 14:39 |
| chazwoza | will give that a go | 14:39 |

| tsimpson | vanguard: mediawiki I guess, it's what wikipedia uses | 15:14 |
| tsimpson | or python-moinmoin which is what wiki.ubuntu.com and help.ubuntu.com uses | 15:14 |
| vanguard | tsimpson: I just read that mediawiki is useful for many users, but we just got 4 | 15:15 |
| vanguard | tsimpson: I am not sure whether I can get python to work on that webserver … | 15:15 |
| tsimpson | if you can get PHP, I would think you should be able to get Python, but if not mediawiki is fine | 15:15 |
| tsimpson | it doesn't really matter if you have 5 or 500 users, it's still usable | 15:16 |
| tsimpson | I personally prefer mediawiki over moinmoin though | 15:16 |
| vanguard | I was going to go with DokuWiki, since that uses the PHP+MySQL Combo that I am used to | 15:16 |
| vanguard | tsimpson: but I will take a look at moinmoin since I like python | 15:17 |
| tsimpson | mediawiki also uses PHP+MySQL | 15:17 |
| vbgunz | I just had a really nice icon for directories. it was a blue folder with a stripe going through it. It was supposed to be oxygen but an update gave me the old ugly looking folders back. how do I get the striped directory icons back? | 15:23 |
| Jiggity | Anybody very good with Bacula? | 15:26 |
| Jiggity | Anybody even there? lol | 15:27 |

| BluesKaj | Hi folks | 15:29 |
| vbgunz | sup BluesKaj | 15:34 |
| BluesKaj | nt mch, vbgunz | 15:35 |
| vbgunz | hanging in there, just trying to make a few tweaks | 15:36 |
| BluesKaj | yeah < idid a full install then eliminated apps I'll never use ,of course nepomuk and akonadi are mimpossible to get rid of , but at least one can turn them off , mostly | 15:39 |
| vbgunz | nepomuk isn't serving me well. I just searched .kde looking for "theme" and "icon" and it just searches forever.. I have a pretty modern system. it's a bit frustrating | 15:40 |
| BluesKaj | the themes and icons are searched for on the iternet , at www.kdelook.org I think. | 15:46 |
| vbgunz | BluesKaj: I'm looking for the actual file in .kde that changes the icon theme | 15:48 |
| vbgunz | nepomuk is seriously pointless and getting me quite upset. It just doesn't work | 15:49 |
| vbgunz | I'm searching through dolphin which uses nepomuk and it just can't find anything | 15:49 |
| vbgunz | stays searching forever or comes up emtpy, I can see why you don't like it | 15:49 |
| BluesKaj | vbgunz, dunno why you expect results from nepomuk, just look in system settings/wokspace appearance | 15:57 |
| vbgunz | BluesKaj: I'll tell you my dilemma. Oxygen had an update to it's icons that were awesome. they looked so professional and awesome. Then, an update or something happened that changed them to their old butt ugly ones. anyhow, I have a backup image of my disk from yesterday. I am trying to find what files I need to swap back over | 16:00 |
| bigbrovar | vbgunz: I searching for files via dolpin works very well on my system. what version of kubuntu / kde are u running? | 16:04 |
| bigbrovar | on kde 4.6 dolphin default to kfind if the strigi (the indexer for kde and the cause of most performance issues) is disabled | 16:04 |
| vbgunz | bigbrovar: I have 4.6.3 from the ppa on natty | 16:06 |
| vbgunz | im looking at service manager and I don't see strigi in there, I do have strigiclient | 16:07 |
| vbgunz | the nepomuk file indexer is idle atm | 16:08 |
| bigbrovar | vbgunz: thats what I have on my system natty and really it works extremely well | 16:10 |
| bigbrovar | vbgunz: in fact search times shows up as I type real time | 16:10 |
| vbgunz | the search in dolphin is so broken, I navigated to a directory with a file named exactly akregatorrc and searched for akregatorrc and it came up empty | 16:11 |
| vbgunz | that's very broken :| | 16:11 |
| vbgunz | I'm gonna reinstall, I remember doing something about a nepomuk or akonadi crash that was constantly bugging me but for the life of me I can't remember what I did. I must have somehow botched nepomuk | 16:15 |
| vbgunz | man, I can't remember the last time I reinstalled | 16:15 |
| vbgunz | I've been doing upgrades for a while now, I think ever since kde4 came out | 16:16 |
| vbgunz | spring fooging clean this mofo | 16:16 |

| Fieldy | hi, i'm using 10.04.2 LTS. i went from using a 24" monitor to a 37" TV into the RGB DIN input. after rebooting, my fonts were unusably huge. i moved xorg.conf to xorg.conf-LAST, rebooted again, and now I only get 1280x1024 and no higher modes (such as 1920x1080 I was using before) are available. the nvidia driver did get loaded. what can I do? | 16:48 |
| BluesKaj | Fieldy, no hdmi output on the pc to hdmi input on the tv ? | 16:59 |
| Fieldy | BluesKaj: i don't have an output on the PC | 16:59 |
| BluesKaj | Fieldy, you do but it's problky the VGA , correct ? | 17:01 |
| Fieldy | BluesKaj: sure, I meant that I don't have an HDMI input on the PC | 17:02 |
| Fieldy | here's errors / warnings from Xorg.0.log http://dpaste.com/541248/ i'm trying to figure out why it's not seeing the nvidia driver even though it's loaded as a module | 17:02 |
| Fieldy | "I don't have an hdmi OUTPUT on the PC" hehe i just woke up | 17:02 |
| BluesKaj | same as any normal monitor in other words ...if you want 1920x1080 you;ll need a video card cappble of at least dvi out which is HIdef capable , to a hidef input on the tv , if it's a hidef tv | 17:03 |
| Fieldy | BluesKaj: it was working fine before rebooting, at 1920x1080, it was after rebooting when this all started | 17:04 |
| BluesKaj | Fieldy, which grapphics card and driver ? | 17:04 |
| BluesKaj | err graphics | 17:05 |
| Fieldy | BluesKaj: nVidia Corporation G94 [GeForce 9600 GT] (rev a1) though I need a hint for finding out which nvidia driver i'm using. "nvidia" is loaded but Xorg stopped using it after reboot | 17:06 |
| Fieldy | no errors in dmesg regarding the nvidia driver at any point | 17:06 |
| zen_monkey | i've upgraded from 9.10 where everything (but huaewi e226) was working fine | 17:08 |
| zen_monkey | and now on 10.04 X crashes on boot | 17:08 |
| zen_monkey | vga is a nvidia TNT2 agp | 17:09 |
| BluesKaj | Fieldy, open the kmenu / apps/ system/additional drivers , make sure you install the recommended driver , probly nvidia-current | 17:09 |
| Fieldy | BluesKaj: sure, one moment | 17:10 |
| BluesKaj | zen_monkey, try the recovery kernel , then in the dialog , "repair broken packages" . then normal boot | 17:10 |
| Fieldy | BluesKaj: current is selected and activated | 17:11 |
| BluesKaj | zen_monkey, then afterwards , do what I posted above for Fieldy | 17:11 |
| Fieldy | it also claims it's in use (it is loaded, xorg just stopped using it) | 17:11 |
| zen_monkey | hmm for that i'm gonna need to make the usb modem work :D | 17:12 |
| zen_monkey | or it doesn't involve downloading any driver? | 17:13 |
| BluesKaj | Fieldy, drop to a tty ctl+alt+f1 , sudo service kdm stop , sudo nvidia-xconfig, then sudo service kdm start, then ctl+alt+f7 | 17:14 |
| Fieldy | BluesKaj: ah nvidia-xconfig, i was trying to remember what that was -- thanks, back in a bit | 17:14 |
| BluesKaj | zen_monkey, depends on your install, which one did you use ? | 17:16 |
| Fieldy | BluesKaj: okay, that worked, the driver is now in use. however i'm now back to the massive fonts issue -- any letter is well over an inch tall here. | 17:17 |
| Fieldy | looking in error log now... | 17:18 |
| zen_monkey | BluesKaj, wich driver? xorg.conf says nouveau | 17:18 |
| zen_monkey | but after dist-upgrade been using nv, only that works | 17:19 |
| Fieldy | hm. nothing out of the ordinary in /var/log/Xorg.0.log | 17:19 |
| BluesKaj | fieldy whcich connection are you using out of the pc , is it the old style vga | 17:20 |
| zen_monkey | BluesKaj, http://pastebin.com/1pategYF this is the log i was getting until yesterday... maybe you can understand more than i from it | 17:20 |
| Fieldy | BluesKaj: yeah, standard DIN, i really don't have another option. check this out though: resolution: 305x305 dots per inch is there a way i can force that to say, 72? | 17:21 |
| katsrc | hey | 17:24 |
| katsrc | is it true Kubuntu will use Unity instead of Plasma? | 17:25 |
| vbgunz | katsrc: I hope not and really doubt it | 17:25 |
| zen_monkey | BluesKaj, repair broken packages needs internet? cause if so i'm needing the modem working first :O | 17:25 |
| BluesKaj | Fieldy, are youactually using the pci graphics card , are you sure you arent connected from the mobo integrated graphics ? | 17:26 |
| zen_monkey | it's done but no fix, when booting it displays the boot screen btu then bumps to tty2.... | 17:26 |
| Fieldy | BluesKaj: 100% positive | 17:26 |
| katsrc | what's this then? http://wstaw.org/m/2011/05/11/plasma-desktopgp1838.jpg | 17:26 |
| Fieldy | curiously fonts in some locations are fine. in firefox 4, the menus/etc are all huge, but the rendered pages are not. reading around it may be a fontconfig issue | 17:27 |
| zen_monkey | katsrc, from where is that pic? | 17:28 |
| katsrc | zen_monkey: uds apparently | 17:28 |
| BluesKaj | then Fieldy , you must be using the vga out which isn't capable of delivering the 1920x1080 graphics resolution to your tv | 17:28 |
| Fieldy | BluesKaj: it's delivering it right now, it's just got massive fonts | 17:29 |
| Fieldy | dimensions: 1920x1080 pixels (160x90 millimeters) | 17:29 |
| Fieldy | it wasn't before, nvidia-xconfig (i think) got that part fixed | 17:29 |
| BluesKaj | ok then change the fonts in system settings/application appearance | 17:30 |
| Fieldy | BluesKaj: they're listed at 14 for all, as it was before, it appears to have no bearing on this issue | 17:31 |
| zen_monkey | katsrc, hmm as ubuntu still uses gnome with unity... maybe they're doing (or whishing) it for kde | 17:32 |
| BluesKaj | Fieldy, you may have to change font settings in dolphin as well | 17:32 |
| zen_monkey | maybe just proving it works | 17:32 |
| Fieldy | it's not an application issue, it's that xorg is failing to pick up the right DPI from EDID. so i just have to figure out how to force the issue -- but i'm out of time and have to go to work now. but we got xorg using nvidia again, that's progress :) | 17:33 |
| BluesKaj | Fieldy, I still think you should check what kind of digital video inputs are on the tv and digital outputs on the graphics card , to get the most out of your setup , a dvi to dvi or hdmi cable is probly what you need | 17:33 |
| Fieldy | BluesKaj: thanks, i suspect i'll be back tomorrow to mess with this some more | 17:33 |
| katsrc | zen_monkey: i think they might have taken this KDE developer seriously: http://zrchrn.blogspot.com/2011/05/kde-unity-setup.html | 17:34 |
| Fieldy | BluesKaj: yeah right now the video card has DVI out but previously i didn't have a dvi nor hdmi capable monitor -- but this is a TV, i will explore that | 17:34 |
| Guest84737 | katsrc: http://www.kdedevelopers.org/node/4429 | 17:34 |
| Guest84737 | I quote: "Kubuntu is using Plasma and always will along with the best of KDE Software " | 17:34 |
| Fieldy | i'm going video card dvi -> [dvi-vga adapter] -> [TV RGB DIN input] | 17:34 |
| Fieldy | but i need to go, THANKS BluesKaj ! | 17:35 |
| BluesKaj | yeah the dpi needs to be increased to 129 and antialiasing ..I use a 42" plasma tv as a monitor so I know what's required | 17:35 |
| katsrc | Guest84737: thanks, there's much relief knowing this | 17:36 |
| Fieldy | BluesKaj: cool, sounds like you have some experience that can help me finish this off -- thanks again, i have run outta time | 17:36 |
| mr-rich | Just did the upgrade to Natty ... must say, it went pretty smooth ... Had used FC for years, so I was a little gun shy of the "upgrade" ... :) | 17:44 |
| BluesKaj | zen_monkey, sorry you have a internet connection prob , how are you connected to the modem , by ethernet? | 17:45 |
| zen_monkey | BluesKaj, modem is usb and been using it with "pon - poff" because can't do more than configuring the conn in graphic mode :s | 17:47 |
| zen_monkey | i'm looking on how to make it work first, then we can go on with X | 17:47 |
| BluesKaj | zen_monkey, dsl modem | 17:48 |
| BluesKaj | ? | 17:48 |
| BluesKaj | zen_monkey, in the konsole, sudo ifconfig eth0 up | 17:49 |
| zen_monkey | BluesKaj, not a dsl modem, it's a 3g one | 17:53 |
| zen_monkey | so no eth in use | 17:53 |
| Kaspi | bk :) | 17:54 |
| BluesKaj | ok, well that leaves me out ... I know nothing about configuring those ...dunno why ppl go thru cell networks , when it's so bloody expensive | 17:54 |
| zen_monkey | BluesKaj, besides the quality of the service... you'll be surprised how low is my rate here hehe... 10Gb a mont for 10 USD | 17:56 |
| zen_monkey | suposed 1024/128 Kbps speeds | 17:57 |
| zen_monkey | going to try this out, brb | 17:59 |
| BluesKaj | well I pay 45cdn /mos for 65G/mos , but then i don't use it as a cell network either ,but 1buck/gig/mos seems ok | 17:59 |

| Babalau | can anyone help me | 19:59 |
| gomiboy | Babalau: what's the problem exactly? | 19:59 |
| Babalau | gomiboy: i can't find the mounted ftp in ~/.gvfs | 20:00 |
| gomiboy | well, if you just opened a ftp site in dolphin, it's not "mounted"... if you want to access it with the terminal you need the ftp program. Maybe there is also some fuse-ftp to really "mount" it... depends on what you need | 20:05 |
| BluesKaj | !sshfs | Babalau | 20:18 |
| ubottu | Babalau: sshfs is a !Fuse based filesystem which allows you to mount a remote system over !SSH - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHFS for instructions | 20:18 |

| tsimpson | skierpage: it's not most of KDE, but it's a large part of the KDE UI core as kdm is just one of many package build from that | 21:27 |
| skierpage | tsimpson, thx. So picking up this small change means getting a rebuild of KDE UI core, even stuff like klipper, libkwineffects1a that maybe hasn't changed? | 21:28 |
| tsimpson | skierpage: yes, that's an unfortunate side-effect of having many packages built from one source package | 21:29 |
| skierpage | tsimpson, ahh I see, the kdebase-workbase that changed isn't itself a kubuntu package but the source of lots of packages. Thanks for the explanation! | 21:31 |

| aaronth | yo homeis | 23:12 |
| aaronth | *homies | 23:12 |
| aaronth | Can I install the updated package/Software of 11.04 to 10.10 | 23:14 |
| aaronth | ? | 23:14 |
| TheFriendlyOnes | aaronth: Do you want to update to 11.04? | 23:15 |
| maco | aaronth: could try, but it might break stuff. better to upgrade to 11.04 or use backports (new versions compiled for old releases) | 23:15 |
| aaronth | TheFriendlyOnes: not really maybe with the next update for it comes, UBuntu 11.04 was not that great with Unity | 23:16 |
| TheFriendlyOnes | aaronth: well you could always try kubuntu, but even 11.04 for ubuntu has "ubuntu classic" which doesn't use unity | 23:17 |
| aaronth | Kubuntu is amazing with all the beauty but seems slow and music is not being nice to me | 23:17 |
| kavurt | my webcam doesn't work with googletalk | 23:18 |
| aaronth | TheFriendlyOnes: I'm on Kubuntu 10.10 and Ubuntu Classic was still slow compared to 10.10, which in my opioion was the best release ever | 23:18 |
| TheFriendlyOnes | aaronth: music playback? is it an mp3 problem? | 23:18 |
| TheFriendlyOnes | aaronth: theres no doubt in my mind that 11.04 was regression for ubuntu, unity is not good in my opinion. | 23:19 |
| aaronth | TheFriendlyOnes: Amarok can not see the local files and when I went to it with browsing it will not show the files in the music folders | 23:19 |
| aaronth | TheFriendlyOnes: When they moved too far from the strength of Linux | 23:20 |
| TheFriendlyOnes | aaronth: Exactly, and for amarok do you have kubuntu-restricted-extras? it might be an mp3 thing | 23:21 |
| aaronth | TheFriendlyOnes: Dolphin shows the files mp3, m4a and all | 23:21 |
| TheFriendlyOnes | aaronth: but i think for amarok to use them they have to be a supported filetype, and without KRE, mp3 isn't supported i think | 23:23 |
| aaronth | TheFriendlyOnes: Nope did not do anything in the sort, that might had been a good idea, I formated this laptop and put Windows 7 and Kubuntu 10.04 (then upgraded to 10.10) | 23:23 |
| TheFriendlyOnes | aaronth: yea, try 'sudo apt-get install kubuntu-restricted-extras' | 23:24 |
