| amichair | in case someone cares or will be reading through the logs... I found the solution to the slow lookup in wget/browsers: it has to do with the wins server configuration in /etc/nsswitch.conf - wins needs to be moved to the end of the hosts lookup lists (instead of before dns). Reports say this may screw with samba automounts, but that's a less pertinent issue for me and I'll deal with it some other time. For everyone blaming ipv6 | 00:07 |
|---|---|---|
| amichair | configurations - know that there is another cause that should be checked :-) | 00:07 |

| Magnusson | does anyone here make their own splash screens, plasma themes,, etc or know a place i can go to start learning how? | 00:52 |
| James147 | Magnusson: played about with some splahs screens, best way is to download some form kde-look.org and start experimenting | 00:53 |
| Magnusson | that's what i was afraid of =\. not that great at reading complex code. was trying to convert a kdm 3 splash screen to use in kdm 4 | 00:54 |

| James147 | Hi pete_ | 00:57 |
| Magnusson | i saw the first link last night, but the 2nd one looks promising, thanks James147 :) | 00:57 |
| pete_ | hi james, i have no idea what i am doing here, how do i create a name that i can use properly? | 00:58 |
| Magnusson | pete_>if you're just wanting to change your nickname use /nick (new desired name) | 00:58 |
| pete_ | where do i use that command? | 00:59 |
| === pete_ is now known as peatie | ||
| peatie | oh i see i am now peatie | 01:00 |
| Magnusson | heh | 01:00 |
| peatie | thanks Magnusson | 01:00 |
| Magnusson | sure np :) | 01:00 |
| preecher | evenin Magnusson | 01:00 |
| Magnusson | hey preecher | 01:01 |
| Magnusson | how's it goin | 01:01 |
| preecher | good | 01:01 |
| peatie | i was thinking i had to join the channel irc.freenode.net to get on chat for advice, does anyone know any applications that I can get similar to hyperterminal in windows? | 01:02 |
| Magnusson | peatie>what're you wanting to do exactly? | 01:04 |
| Magnusson | i remember using hyperterminal years ago but forgot what for | 01:04 |
| peatie | Console to my cisco router, so I can fiddle with it | 01:04 |
| Magnusson | try putty | 01:04 |
| peatie | Magnusson>I've only got one network interface on this PC at the mo | 01:05 |
| Magnusson | peatie>http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/ check it out and see if that'll serve your needs | 01:06 |
| Dragnslcr | I'd think that the router would support telnet or ssh | 01:06 |
| peatie | this (linux) is all very new to me | 01:06 |
| Magnusson | peatie>heh yep, me too. i've recently come back to linux myself | 01:07 |
| gomiboy | peatie: minicom is what you want | 01:07 |
| peatie | yeah, I can't telnet to my cisco when I'm using the only eth port available to chat unfortunately | 01:08 |
| peatie | minicom eh? | 01:08 |
| Dragnslcr | Why can't you telnet to it? | 01:08 |
| Dragnslcr | Seems weird that you can't have a telnet connection to it over the same wire as everything else | 01:09 |
| peatie | dragnslcr> because my internet connection is to a different router | 01:09 |
| gomiboy | the serial console is cooler :D | 01:10 |
| Dragnslcr | Heh, I'll take your word for it | 01:10 |
| peatie | gomiboy> i feel safer with the console | 01:10 |
| Dragnslcr | http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Serial-HOWTO.html might be a good starting point | 01:12 |
| Dragnslcr | Though that's probably for raw communication over the serial port | 01:13 |
| szal | Magnusson: what do you want w/ PuTTY on Linux? isn't that 100% redundant? | 01:14 |
| Magnusson | szal>to my understanding he was wanting something to use on windows 0.o | 01:15 |
| szal | Magnusson: then you understood wrongly | 01:15 |
| Magnusson | fair nuff | 01:15 |
| szal | apart from that that'd be OT here ^^ | 01:15 |
| peatie | thanks, that looks like some good info, but i'm just after an application that will let me get to the router for now. I've used hyperterminal a fair bit, just after a linux equivalent | 01:16 |
| peatie | so anyway, I haven't registerd or anything, so if I close this window, will I lose the name peatie? and if so how do I register? AND will i be able to get on other thingmajigs (channels?) with that username? | 01:22 |
| peatie | sorry I didn't mean to use the term "window" | 01:23 |
| gomiboy | peatie: don't worry, peatie isn't a particularly appealing name :D | 01:24 |
| * gomiboy isn't registered anyway :) | 01:25 | |
| peatie | I dunno, wasn't he the artist in the Charlie Braown comics? | 01:26 |

| eMyller | hey | 01:28 |
| eMyller | how can i fix the height for the tray icons? | 01:28 |
| Magnusson | moes>you can do it but you'll have to add seperate widgets for each desktop | 01:28 |
| eMyller | i really want my panel thinner than normal, but the icons are all unaligned or oversized | 01:29 |
| szal | what KDE version is in 10.04? 4.4.x? was that possible already there? | 01:29 |
| dbc254 | in 9.01 I could just right click on the desktop and create a new icon. Can't do that in 10.10 | 01:29 |
| moes | Magnusson, Is the cheat sheet somewhere's...the one I found does not work | 01:32 |

| Linkmaster | Im having the most annoying thing happen with my focus policy at the moment. For some reason, the focus policy is causing the window's to raise, which is difficult when I have some things maximized and some at smaller screens. how do I make it so the focus follows the mouse, but doesn't raise the windows? | 01:46 |

| di3gopa | anyone knows where can i change the font hinting? (my fonts look horrible) | 02:55 |
| Linkmaster | You can go to 'system settings -> Application Appearance -> Fonts[tab]' and see what can be done from there | 02:56 |

| mediawork | Im trying to see how low my cpu temp drops... | 03:34 |
| fei | thank you very much | 03:34 |
| Daskreech | mediawork: don't touch it and leave it in front of MTV | 03:35 |
| Animental | He could turn off X. Run it command line only. | 03:35 |
| Animental | AND THEN set it in front of MTV. | 03:36 |
| mediawork | anyways, is 38 deg C a low idle temp for a cpu? | 03:37 |
| Daskreech | fei: if you want just transparency gone you can turn it off under Desktop effects | 03:37 |
| fei | ok,thank you | 03:37 |
| Daskreech | mediawork: not low but below normal | 03:37 |
| mediawork | how does MTV help? the TV station? | 03:37 |
| fei | I just try | 03:37 |
| Daskreech | mediawork: it makes whoever watches it an idler | 03:38 |

| mediawork | jeez, Ive got 4 cores and all of them are fluctuating between 2 - 10% load, and nothing is running... | 03:39 |
| * Animental waves goobye. | 03:40 | |
| Daskreech | mediawork: your computer is on | 03:40 |
| Daskreech | something is running | 03:40 |
| asobi | * Daskreech has n00b answers <--- liesssssss | 03:41 |
| mediawork | Daskreech: right, just seems a bit busy doing some flops of rubbish I dont care about I think | 03:41 |
| mediawork | Daskreech: I wish it didn't... Is ubuntu busy solving some math problems while Im not around? | 03:41 |
| Animental | Okay, so, the #xubuntu room is very quiet. They just stared at me. | 03:42 |
| * Daskreech stares | 03:42 | |
| Animental | :o Not you, too! | 03:42 |
| Daskreech | mediawork: most likely | 03:42 |
| fei | maybe your computer just come to crazy ,^_^ | 03:42 |
| Daskreech | what would you like it to do? | 03:43 |
| fei | ? | 03:43 |
| Daskreech | not you fei i was asking mediawork | 03:43 |
| fei | o | 03:44 |
| Daskreech | k | 03:44 |
| fei | I like this channle | 03:44 |
| Daskreech | yes much better than MTV ^_^ | 03:44 |
| asobi | hi dask | 03:45 |
| mediawork | Daskreech: Cant ubuntu be a bit concervative on cpu-power, when all it has to do is hold that thought... wait for me to ask it to do something... | 03:45 |
| Animental | I don't know...Jersey Shore's pretty awesome... Quick question: just updated my server running Xubuntu with some recent updates (still 11.04) and I can no longer connect to it using it's hostname, just IP addy. Wha happen? | 03:45 |
| multipass | anyone know how to mount a iphone4 in kubuntu 11.04? | 03:45 |
| mediawork | Daskreech: I mean average 5 percent of all 4x 3.6GHz cores is pretty damn much dont you think, mind you what does Ubuntu do with a single core machine? | 03:45 |
| Daskreech | hi asobi | 03:45 |
| mediawork | single core machine would then be 20 percent busy when Idle... | 03:47 |
| mediawork | and on a weaker processor, it might be 50 percent busy doing nothing... | 03:47 |
| mediawork | I turned off all desktop effects, the busyness seems to have dropped a bit, and my cpu cooled down a degree. | 03:48 |
| Daskreech | mediawork: No it wouldn't Linux would scale back | 03:49 |
| Daskreech | if you put in 64 cores it would scale up | 03:49 |
| Daskreech | !iphone | 03:49 |

| Daskreech | multipass: ^^^ | 03:49 |
| mediawork | Daskreech: lol, yes, Linux would scale back on wasting time with your cpu. | 03:49 |
| Daskreech | mediawork: well it does have work to do | 03:49 |
| * Animental has a single-core PIII in his server. Idles just fine. | 03:49 | |
| Daskreech | The way the kernel does things is that anytime a user is doing something it basically stops all of it's own work | 03:50 |
| Daskreech | when the user goes idle then it returns to doing it's jobs | 03:50 |
| Daskreech | so when you go idle for a little bit you'll see a bit of a spike in work getting done | 03:50 |
| mediawork | Daskreech: right, I suppose it could be checking my filesystem integrity ... | 03:51 |
| fei | my system crashed again when I try to resize the konsole window | 03:51 |
| Daskreech | mediawork: right and indexing files. cleaning dead processes and files doing chronological checks dumping old log files | 03:51 |
| mediawork | Daskreech: but, there can be too much of a good thing, maybe this scaling isn't making much sense with these new multi-core machines. | 03:51 |
| Daskreech | mediawork: it just gets the work done faster then it goes back to idle | 03:52 |
| multipass | the steps that work in ubuntu dont work in kubuntu, Daskreech | 03:52 |
| mediawork | Daskreech: maybe I can control this aspect of the kernel? | 03:52 |
| multipass | :| | 03:52 |
| multipass | ubuntu 11.04 iphone works out of the box | 03:52 |
| multipass | kubuntu is nogo | 03:52 |
| Daskreech | mediawork: A lot of it might have to do with GUI and network checks you can kill the gui and network if you like | 03:52 |
| Daskreech | multipass: ask in #ubuntu how it works then | 03:53 |
| Daskreech | multipass: or you can check in #kubuntu-devel | 03:53 |
| multipass | but im on kubuntu | 03:53 |
| multipass | so they will be like | 03:53 |
| multipass | we dont support kubuntu here | 03:53 |
| Daskreech | multipass: well they are meanines then. We are all part of the linux family | 03:53 |
| Daskreech | multipass: ask in #kubuntu-devel | 03:54 |
| Daskreech | mediawork: I suppose it is too much to point out that if you want to use less power turning off the computer might be a good idea> | 03:54 |
| mediawork | mediawork: I never thought of turning of a linux machine | 03:56 |
| mediawork | Daskreech: I mean. | 03:56 |
| Daskreech | fei: did you turn off the effects? | 04:02 |
| Daskreech | Wow | 04:05 |
| Daskreech | Hibernate works :) | 04:05 |
| kubu2 | recorditnow is not recording sound? any idea how? | 04:14 |
| Animental | So, how do I connect to my server using it's hostname and not it's IP addy? | 04:17 |
| eMyller | Animental: you may get the best answer for that in ##linux :) | 04:17 |
| * Animental nods | 04:18 | |
| Animental | Thanks, I'll ask there! | 04:18 |
| kubu2 | Animental: if you know the ip addy then use it. otherwise you need a dns lookup to translate hostname to ip | 04:18 |
| kubu2 | and a lot faster | 04:19 |
| Animental | kubu: The strange thing is is that it worked not hours ago. After an update, which included smb updates, it just stopped. | 04:19 |
| Daskreech | Animental: can you ping it? | 04:20 |
| * Animental checks | 04:20 | |
| eMyller | Animental: is your dnswhatever service running also? | 04:21 |
| Animental | I'm not running a DNS service...I just want to connect to it on my LAN. | 04:22 |
| Animental | And I can't ping the hostname. It's IP, though, pings just dandy. | 04:22 |
| kubu2 | that's what dns for- translate names to ip addy. you need to tell everyone hostname is ip addrs | 04:26 |
| Animental | Well, the router handles that, I thought. Is there any reason (after this update) that my server would no longer be telling everyone it's hostname? When I gave it a host name when I set everything up, the router picked it up immediately. | 04:28 |
| new2net | where do I report bugs? | 04:29 |

| alesan | I tried like crazy but I cannot | 08:46 |
| === ocs is now known as beagleOCS | ||
| tsimpson | alesan: just add a link to "konqueror --profile filemanagement" | 08:57 |
| alesan | tsimpson, umh... ok for the command line option | 08:58 |
| alesan | but | 08:58 |
| alesan | how do I add a "custom" command to the quick launch? | 08:58 |
| alesan | I thought you had to select an icon already existing in the K menu | 08:58 |
| alesan | I'm really lost :( | 08:58 |
| tsimpson | there is a line above the list, you can just type it in there and it will create a new entry for you | 08:59 |
| tsimpson | you can then choose an icon etc | 08:59 |
| noaXess | hey al | 09:05 |
| mircosx | hi ya | 09:05 |
| noaXess | i have installed a deb package and can see it with sudo dpkg -l | grep packagename.. status ii.. but i can't remove it with sudo apt-get remove packagename | 09:05 |
| noaXess | i get: E: Unable to locate package nevernote | 09:05 |
| noaXess | any idea? | 09:13 |
| new2net | uhh yeah.... dpkg -C | 09:16 |
| new2net | i think it checks for broken packages or something... can't remember | 09:16 |
| tsimpson | it checks for not fully installed packages | 09:16 |
| tsimpson | noaXess: see if "sudo dpkg -r packagename" works | 09:16 |
| noaXess | tsimpson: hey.. no | 09:17 |
| new2net | yeah... apt-get can remove packages, but if you only want to remove 1 package I think dpkg would be a better fit | 09:17 |
| noaXess | dpkg: warning: there's no installed package matching nevernote | 09:17 |
| tsimpson | then recheck the output of "dpkg -l" I guess | 09:17 |
| noaXess | sudo dpkg -l | grep nevernote | 09:17 |
| noaXess | ii nevernote:i386 0.99 An open source clone designed to interact with Evernote. | 09:17 |
| tsimpson | eh, that looks like the package name is "nevernote:i386" | 09:18 |
| tsimpson | which is evil btw | 09:18 |
| noaXess | ah.. yes.. better.. nno it is uninstalled | 09:18 |
| noaXess | strange package name.. will report that to the creater.. | 09:19 |
| alesan | tsimpson, that must be new... | 09:20 |
| tsimpson | it's just bad form | 09:21 |
| alesan | tsimpson, sorry I was referring to the line to type in a custom command when adding a quick launch icon | 09:21 |
| alesan | anyway I added the konqueror icon | 09:22 |
| tsimpson | ah, well I don't think it's new | 09:22 |
| alesan | well ok | 09:22 |
| alesan | now I must see if I can completely remove dolphin | 09:22 |
| tsimpson | I have KDE 4.5.3, so it can't be that new | 09:22 |
| alesan | sometimes it pops out again | 09:23 |
| tsimpson | you don't want to remove dolphin | 09:23 |
| alesan | and it would be so cool if non-kde apps could use the KDE file chooser when asked to save or load | 09:23 |
| tsimpson | dolphin _IS_ the file manager, konqueror only wraps dolphin in its window | 09:23 |
| alesan | instead of those crappy gtk ones | 09:23 |
| alesan | tsimpson, I do not care too much about the inner details I just want dolphin to go | 09:24 |
| alesan | it's dumb compared to konqueror | 09:24 |
| tsimpson | that doesn't make sense | 09:24 |
| tsimpson | konqueror _uses_ dolphin in file manager mode | 09:24 |
| alesan | in any case, I think years ago I found a way to let all applications use the KDE file chooser... do you have any idea? | 09:24 |
| tsimpson | it is dolphin | 09:24 |
| tsimpson | the only thing I've seen that makes apps use the KDE file choose is "kgtk", but it's a hack | 09:28 |

| george_ | ok folks, maybe a silly question butI like displaying only the shut down button at the panel, but it looks just too big. Is there a way to make it smaller, like when displaying shut down and block buttons? | 13:27 |
| Peace- | george_: mm | 13:35 |
| Peace- | george_: i guess you should customize the icons | 13:35 |
| Peace- | i mean | 13:35 |
| Peace- | /usr/share/icon | 13:36 |
| Peace- | on that folder there are icons | 13:36 |
| george_ | Peace: Oh.... | 13:36 |
| Peace- | so you basically you need to replace bigger icons with the smaller one | 13:36 |
| BluesKaj | to me that's not a real question ...a real question is about fixing broken apps or probs with making things...icons etc is window dressing IMO | 13:37 |
| BluesKaj | making apps work | 13:37 |
| george_ | Peace:Ok, thanks for you help. | 13:38 |
| yofel | afaik the icons are resized to fit into the panel without cropping. So to get a smaller icon you make the panel smaller | 13:38 |
| BluesKaj | mostly i just shutdown our pcs from the cli with ssh | 13:38 |

| Pici | amichair: What version are you looking for? | 16:04 |
| amichair | 6.25 | 16:05 |
| manju_ | BluesKaj, ok...that didn't work | 16:05 |
| Pici | Ah. I see that in sid's repo, but it doesn't look like its been pulled into any of the partner repositories yet. | 16:05 |
| amichair | Pici: how long does it usually take it? | 16:06 |
| BluesKaj | manju_, describe didn't work...what did you try ? | 16:06 |
| Pici | amichair: I'm not sure, but 6.24 seems to be in all the supported release's partner repos, so it seems that they are updating them regularly. | 16:06 |
| manju_ | I started alsamixer and turned up the volume on all the bars, except the headphone, which it wouldn't let me turn it up because the headphone is not plugged in | 16:06 |
| manju_ | BluesKaj, and then typed gstreamer-properties and selected alsa and clicked test on it and no sound | 16:07 |
| manju_ | BluesKaj, but OSS still works though | 16:07 |
| BluesKaj | manju_, OSS? ..ok dunno much about OSS ...could be pulseaudio is the culprit ...I don't need it because I don'tr use a pci soundcard | 16:08 |
| amichair | Pici: that's what I was expecting... 6.25 is a month old though, and still not available | 16:08 |
| manju_ | flashplayer also does not make any sound | 16:13 |
| manju_ | non of the youtube videos work | 16:13 |

| manju_ | anyone face this problem ? | 16:13 |
| Peace- | manju_: well , there is not this problem on kubuntu | 16:16 |
| Peace- | manju_: you have to set well your kmix | 16:16 |
| Peace- | i guess | 16:16 |
| Peace- | manju_: or install properly flash | 16:16 |
| Peace- | manju_: btw , firefox4 can use youtube with html5 | 16:16 |
| manju_ | it was working and then ubuntu did a security update and everything broke :-( | 16:17 |

| Peace- | anyway i am quite sure that is not that your problem | 16:21 |
| manju_ | Peace-, yes all those are set to maximum too | 16:22 |
| manju_ | but it seems to be something related to alsa, or pulseaudio | 16:22 |
| Peace- | manju_: pulse is not installed on your machine i guess | 16:23 |
| manju_ | ok...oh well, let me think some more, maybe I will download latest ubuntu and wipe this and install or something | 16:23 |
| Peace- | manju_: well it's not a linux way that | 16:23 |
| Peace- | xD | 16:23 |

| manju_ | anyway I am off for now...dinner time | 16:24 |
| manju_ | thanks for your help | 16:24 |

| manju_ | yes only kmix and pulseaudio are alive and using sound and well xchat | 16:26 |
| manju_ | still nothing | 16:27 |
| Peace- | manju_: manju_: sudo alsa force-reload | 16:27 |
| manju_ | yay! | 16:28 |
| manju_ | it works | 16:28 |
| manju_ | Peace-, dude you're a genius | 16:28 |

| BluesKaj | amichair, integrated sound on the mobo ? then yes , but ppl with pci soundcards can benefit from PA's options altho they're running an extra layer of distortion causing digtal processing | 16:35 |

| Linkmaster | Well, if you make your own system, to your personal liking, and tweak and fiddle with everything, you might be able to create a perfect system for you for..5 minutes? Then you'll realize you want something else, and you have to make that as well xD | 19:59 |
| dniMretsaM | I'd say more like 3 minutes | 20:01 |
| BluesKaj | how does one underline text in kate ..I've forgotten | 20:01 |
| BluesKaj | managed to figure out how to pass Dolby Digital DYS etc to the DAC inputs : Configure VLC tools/preferences/audio , in Output, choose:"alsa audio output". check,"Use spdif when available", and device, choose, Yoursoundcard digital out( same as the didgital out in phonon) | 20:04 |
| dniMretsaM | I don't kow | 20:04 |

| === install is now known as punchedpeace | ||
| dniMretsaM | I'm out for now guys | 20:26 |
| BluesKaj | skynet2000, you install most packages in (k)ubuntu with sudo apt-get install 'nameofpackage" | 20:29 |
| skynet2000 | ? | 20:29 |
| skynet2000 | so i need to run that command to? | 20:29 |
| BluesKaj | or use the package manager | 20:30 |
| skynet2000 | i just did the-->sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop | 20:30 |
| skynet2000 | it just got done | 20:30 |
| skynet2000 | do i need to do the other one you just said to? | 20:30 |
| BluesKaj | !apt | 20:31 |
| ubottu | APT is the Advanced Package Tool, which together with dpkg forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit. Short apt-get manual: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGetHowto - Also see !Synaptic (Gnome), !Adept (KDE) or !KPackageKit (KDE) | 20:31 |
| skynet2000 | ok | 20:31 |
| skynet2000 | do i need to run sudo apt-get install 'nameofpackage" to? | 20:32 |
| BluesKaj | skynet2000, say you want to install VLC , which isn't included in kubuntu by default , then sudo apt-get install vlc , will do it | 20:33 |
| BluesKaj | got it now ? | 20:33 |
| skynet2000 | ya | 20:34 |
| skynet2000 | i did not have vlc on yet | 20:34 |
| BluesKaj | !repositories | 20:34 |
| ubottu | The packages in Kubuntu are divided into various sections. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Kubuntu - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecommendedSources for the recommended way to set up your repositories | 20:34 |
| rosco_y | I can't print to my HP Laserjet 1000, does anyone have some advice? | 20:34 |
| skynet2000 | what was the sudo apt-get install 'nameofpackage" do?? | 20:34 |
| skynet2000 | nameofpackage" ??? | 20:34 |
| skynet2000 | i gusse i will reboot and see if it has worked | 20:34 |
| skynet2000 | ty brb | 20:34 |
| BluesKaj | nameofpackage was in brackets because it means whatever package you want | 20:35 |
| BluesKaj | rosco_y, check systemsettngs/printer configuration | 20:36 |
| skynet2000 | its still the same | 20:41 |
| rosco_y | Thank you BluesKaj :) | 20:42 |

| Bauldrick | see this problem I have --- [13:59:27] <Bauldrick> I have a problem --- I can only get into system if I boot into recovery and then > resume boot - that gives me a command prompt at which point I login and issue startx - If I try to select normal 2.35.8 at grub (or whatever # it is) I get black screen and monitor actually turns off... | 21:26 |
| Bauldrick | I have the same sort of problem on a laptop that was upgraded to natty, but with that the screen goes blue and if I hit spacebar the hdd light goes active and it will load. | 21:26 |
| vbgunz | If I right click in Kate, nothing comes up. I don't remember this behavior | 21:26 |
| vbgunz | what could be wrong? | 21:26 |
| Bauldrick | On this PC, if I hit spacebar immediately after grub, kubuntu loads, if I dont hit spacebar monitor switches off and PC is non responsive? | 21:27 |
| Peace- | Bauldrick: try with a fresh installation | 21:28 |
| Peace- | in another partition | 21:28 |
| Peace- | i guess that should solve your problem quickly ~20 minutes | 21:28 |
| Peace- | if you don't like this ... | 21:28 |
| Peace- | well try to reinstall packages | 21:28 |
| Bauldrick | Peace-: this problem appears on two different machines, and I could reinstall, but would like to know the problem (and file a bug against it) | 21:29 |
| Peace- | Bauldrick: i dunno it could be a bad configuration , if you have upgrade in both machines | 21:30 |
| Bauldrick | no, on the PC was fesh install of beta2 | 21:30 |
| Peace- | if you don't i mean if in a machine you did a fresh installation that could be a bug | 21:30 |
| Peace- | !releasenote | 21:31 |
| Peace- | Bauldrick: you could find some thing on the release note | 21:31 |
| Peace- | Bauldrick: google==> kubuntu release note | 21:31 |
| Peace- | Bauldrick: it could be your bios | 21:32 |
| Peace- | i mean the same bios that is not supported well from your kernel | 21:32 |
| Peace- | Bauldrick: have you tried selecting a new kernel a different kernel | 21:32 |
| Peace- | you need to test | 21:32 |
| Peace- | vbgunz: tried to reset kate configurations ? | 21:33 |
| Peace- | vbgunz: ~/.kde/share/config | 21:33 |
| Peace- | Bauldrick: on that folder you should find out some confgiruation files | 21:33 |
| vbgunz | Peace-: might as well | 21:33 |
| vbgunz | one sec | 21:33 |
| Peace- | sorry | 21:33 |
| Peace- | vbgunz: on that folder you should find out some confgiruation files | 21:33 |
| Peace- | vbgunz: even here ~/.kde/share/application | 21:34 |
| Peace- | vbgunz: sorrry even here ~/.kde/share/apps | 21:34 |
| vbgunz | Peace-: I got them | 21:35 |
| vbgunz | there were 4 files, I just sent them to trash | 21:35 |
| vbgunz | right click works now, I never really used kate so I don't mind losing all configurations for it | 21:35 |
| Peace- | nice | 21:37 |

| giantpune | i have just installed kubuntu on my laptop and set it to autologin and the kwallet is pestering me for the password. is there any way to make the autologin unlock the kwallet? | 22:32 |
| gomiboy | giantpune: well the passworded wallet is to keep passwords safe... if you autologing + auto unlock the wallet... well just put a sticker on your monitor with your password written on... hehehe.. anyway, no but you can disable kwallet if you want (system settings--> personal informations IIRC) | 22:40 |
| === mycroft_ is now known as goldfish | ||
| === goldfish is now known as Guest53283 | ||
| James147 | giantpune: not yet, however there are some work arounds: 1) See if you can tell what ever is trying to uinlock the wallet to use a unencrpyted file instead (the network manager can do this) 2) dont use a password on the wallet... though this is generally discuraged as you effectivly store all passwords unencrpyted | 22:42 |
| giantpune | nobody else is using this computer except me. so im not really worried about the password security. but it really defeats the purpose of autologin to the computer if you still get asked for the password as soon as it starts | 22:42 |
| === Guest53283 is now known as particulate | ||
| giantpune | heh. and when i try to open system settings--> personal informations, it spits out some error about akonadi not being able to start up | 22:45 |
| giantpune | woot. changing the network manager to store the password unencrypted keeps it from pestering me for the password right on startup. thanks James147. | 22:50 |
| LINKSWORD2 | Well, that was stupid! I've somehow managed to remove my userbar from the screen of my Kubuntu computer. How do I restore it? | 22:59 |
| LINKSWORD2 | Hello, Daskreech | 23:00 |
| Daskreech | hi LINKSWORD2 | 23:01 |
| Daskreech | how are you? | 23:01 |
| LINKSWORD2 | I did something stupid... Again. | 23:01 |
| LINKSWORD2 | I was re-arranging stuff on my desktop, and apparently I deleted the taskbar. How do I restore it? | 23:02 |
| LINKSWORD2 | Yeah. I'm stupid. xD | 23:03 |
| James147 | LINKSWORD2: if you removed the task manager (not the entire panel) then right click > add widgets > find and drag it back... if you removed the panel > right click the desktop > add panel... | 23:04 |
| LINKSWORD2 | I'm used to windows, so I'm used to calling it the taskbar. | 23:05 |
| LINKSWORD2 | Is there something I can do to restore the bar to its defaults? | 23:06 |
| James147 | LINKSWORD2: on kde 4.6+ just add the default panel | 23:08 |
| James147 | LINKSWORD2: on 4.5 and lower you need to reset the whole of plasma-desktop | 23:08 |
| Daskreech | LINKSWORD2: Remove the panel and add back one | 23:08 |
| Daskreech | the first panel on the desktop gets a default "KDE3" setting | 23:08 |
| LINKSWORD2 | James, how do I reset plasma? | 23:08 |
| Daskreech | LINKSWORD2: mkdir ~/bkup ; kquitapp plasma-desktop && sleep 5 && mv ~/.kde/share/config/plasma* ~/bkup && plasma-desktop | 23:09 |
| LINKSWORD2 | Whoa. | 23:10 |
| LINKSWORD2 | Hang on while I copy all that. lol | 23:10 |
| Animental | Hello! | 23:11 |
| LINKSWORD2 | Daskreech: I tried your command and got a return that says:: Invalid D-BUS interface name 'org.ked.plasma-desktop.PlasmaApp' found while parsing introspection | 23:15 |
