[00:00] hey.. i like this "- {Day changed to Sat May 21 00:00:00 2011}" [00:00] Linkmaster: yes.... and I believe that covers it does it not? [00:00] Eh, I hope. I'll try it [00:01] did you just say "eh" because I'm Canadian? lol [00:01] exactly [00:01] No, I actually didn't know until now :o I say 'eh' quite a bit when I"m iffy about things [00:02] haha ok [00:02] in my repos I have two different "record my desktops".... one is 3.8.1 and the other is 3.8 [00:06] SIR_Taco: Yeah, it didn't work, I had tried it before. It was glitchy and no sound [00:06] Linkmaster: it's command line.... you need to specify the sound card through /dev/.... which can be a pain in the butt [00:07] * Linkmaster is unsure of how to do it [00:07] but your sound card should be /dev/dsp or /dev/dsp0 [00:07] especially since I have one soundcard. I use a netbook that could fit in a school textbook with room to bounce around [00:07] sithlord48: .... have you checked your /dev/ lately? [00:08] what abotu using the qt-front end [00:08] um nm then no /dev/dsp here.. [00:09] sithlord48: then you have a very nice and cooperative hardware sound card :) [00:09] Mine makes me rage :L [00:09] *:l [00:09] two if you count my HDMI pass thru .. [00:10] * lcb just discovered how to turn FloodBotK1 into a canine pit bull when things gets bad - Just change the nick to FloodBotK9 [00:10] wowwww [00:10] i has a /dev/snd/ with a bunch of stuff in it.. [00:10] sithlord48: which is what I have... but damned if I know which would be the correct device [00:11] process of elemination.... [00:11] well yea [00:11] but the hwC0D0 looks good i would try that one (on my computer) [00:12] cause i haz a two of them and i know i have "two" sound cards as the computer sees it, or would i use control0 maybe if that didn't work :P [00:12] didn't work for me [00:13] then i would try /dev/random when i got fustrated cause at least that might be fun [00:14] none of them work.... even random [00:14] oh well then thats not cool at all [00:14] i have a lot of tty devs... do i really need like 100 of them ? === MaximLevitsky is now known as FloodBotK9 [00:16] so? === FloodBotK9 is now known as MaximLevitsky [00:20] ok... I'm stumped [00:35] it's quiet... too quiet === dequire is now known as ronnoc [00:46] its 5'0clock and Friday [00:47] wn1zid: it's almost 8 [00:47] it is almost 2 [00:48] seems someone's wrong..... ;) [01:37] the Linux kernel: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UoPplpBPQxQ&feature=BFa&list=FLkJ5uDxQPDwo&index=53 :) [01:39] wow, that's nice. [01:39] there is no music in mine :( [01:40] in the kernel, i mean [01:40] haha [01:40] Silly question folks. How does one change the icons for individual launcher shortcuts on the desktop in kde? [01:40] I know how to change it for file types, .exe for example but that's it. [01:41] KerrMD: properties | click on the icon then [01:42] Launcher properties? [01:42] KerrMD: default location for icons, in case you want more, /usr/share/icons [01:42] yes [01:42] icon properties [01:42] That is how I ended up changing the icon for all .exe files [01:43] icon settings [01:43] here... we'll do my country some due: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SGTm4u1UWvg&feature=BFa&list=FLkJ5uDxQPDwo&index=54 [01:43] KerrMD: wait.. [01:44] KerrMD: on a folder? [01:44] I was going to say that that is the way I changed the icon type for all .exe files [01:45] on a desktop icon. be it a shortcut to launch a prog under wine or whatever [01:45] KerrMD: yes, that's the way i wrote [01:45] hmm [01:46] properties | click on the icon. but probably you did on a exe icon.. then changed everything [01:46] That sounds like how it is done with GDM. [01:46] KDE [01:47] KerrMD: to correct that you might need to change the icon back to the defauld doing the same thing on another exe file [01:47] I hit the icon properties then a window opens to the General tab. The only things that can be done on that tab is Ok, Cancel, and a wrench after "Type: "DOS/Windows executable" [01:47] default. [01:48] KerrMD: if you click on the icon, nothing happens? [01:48] I cannot cluck on the icon on the general tab, no [01:48] The wrench yes, icon no [01:50] i have ImgBurn under Wine, for instance. if i right/click on it, then Properties, i get on the General tab an icon. if i click on it i get the icon selection options [01:51] KerrMD: but look.. i'm talking about the shortcuts on the Desktop, as you asked [01:52] Ok, if it matters I got the shortcuts by simply dragging and dropping the .exe to the desktop. [01:53] KerrMD: where did you change, on the first place? [01:54] What was the screenshot drop url? [01:59] lcb: This screenshot shows where I made the change http://imgur.com/7iCsU [01:59] ooooh.... better Canadian song... for those that are interested lol [02:01] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QrkgV5bl7kQ&feature=BFa&list=FLkJ5uDxQPDwo&index=63 [02:01] KerrMD: and if you do it again, back to the default? [02:01] KerrMD: the way you did it before... [02:01] lcb: Now, if I click the icon next to the "Filename Patterns" box in this screenshot I can change it for all of that type. http://imgur.com/TFObb [02:01] Not sure wha the default is [02:03] I "think" it's set back to default. A grey gear with DOS over it [02:04] KerrMD: so you want to set an Icon for a single .exe.... not all? [02:04] KerrMD: i don't know the icon's theme you are using. if you do the same as before select one icon for executables. it will change all again [02:04] yes, just a single shortcut not all of that type [02:04] * Cibort a [02:05] KerrMD: didn't you say you mess with all .exe icons? [02:05] The way I showed you did yes. It changes the default icon for all files of that type. Not for that specific file [02:05] so first thing is correcting that, the same way you did by changing that one [02:05] I did [02:06] and reboot [02:06] restartx or straight up reboot the pc? [02:06] or probably a logout/in would be enough, not sure. #wine might be the correct channel for that [02:06] The changes have already propegated [02:08] KerrMD: you should be able to select: "properties" -> "General" -> and selecte a new Icon [02:08] KerrMD: if you have a shortcut (not an .exe) on the desktop, you only need to go to Properties | General | click on the icon, as said before [02:08] When I try to right click an icon on the desktop I get three choices. 1) icon settings 2) desktop options or 3) remove this icon [02:09] SIR_Taco: sorry for the echo [02:09] lcb: not a problem [02:12] time to sleep. wife is complaining she's missing my snoring . nite nite SIR_Taco, KerrMD and all :) [02:12] night [02:12] night lcb [02:13] Am I missing something or is it "Icon settings" that I am supposed to go to? [02:15] KerrMD, I forgot. if you need to change that particular icon, move the executable from desktop to /home/yourUserName, then create a shortcut to the desktop again and do the trick... properties | general | click on the icon [02:16] /home/yourUserName/.Apps for example [02:16] ok? [02:16] KerrMD: I haven't had to change an individual apps icon in a very long time [02:16] This shortcut came from /home/username/.wine/yada/yada.yada [02:17] These are wine does/win exe's [02:17] dos* [02:17] KerrMD: no... you moved it or copied it [02:17] KerrMD: but it's a Wine program? [02:17] shortcuts are not executables, in that sense [02:17] AH, ok. I just made that change in dolphin so time to do it again [02:18] - [02:18] KerrMD: worry up, she's yelling at me. i think the fire department is coming. [02:18] Oy, off to bed with you man. [02:18] hehehehe [02:19] do the shortcut thing as i told you and you'll be ok [02:21] odd, kde has a different idea of a desktop than I do === etty is now known as Neftis [02:23] Ok, dolphin shows them on home/michael/Desktop and yet they are not any of my four desktops [02:26] I think it has to do with Plasma.... it likes to keep me from my actual desktop and throw widgets at me instead [02:27] KerrMD: try the FolderView widget [02:27] KerrMD: use the folder view widget or change to the folderview activity type [02:28] KDE4 has abolished the traditional concept of desktop icons [02:29] that is what is getting in my way. I have to figure out what they've done. Unfortunately the best way for me to do that is to muddle through or I retain nothing. [02:29] Thanks for pointing me on the right track, everyone. [02:29] * szal doesn't miss desktop icons [02:30] never really used any, neither on KDE3 nor on Windblows [02:30] I may or may not depending upon how this goes. [02:31] the few programs I regularly use I put in the panel for faster access [02:32] if they didn't scrap that somewhere in the process, there's a kind of quick-launch widget to place in the panel.. back in the early days of KDE4 that was quite buggy, so I dropped it once I found out you can place program icons directly on the panel [02:38] The Quicklaunch widget works fine now [02:38] I put one in an auto-hiding panel on the left edge of my desktop. It's a really nice setup [02:46] The only issue I have with the folder view widget is the little + over the icon when I try to click it [02:46] http://imgur.com/gjzyM [02:47] KerrMD: thats the selection button, click it to select the icon, click it again to unselect [02:48] Selection button? I just want to be able to single click to launch as if it were the desktop itself [02:49] Is it a program or a document/image/etc.? [02:49] shortcut to a wine/win exe [02:50] Try checking out the Quick Access widget instead of the Folder View [02:51] I have a Quick Access widget, and it opens files with a single click [02:51] KerrMD: you can also add launchers dirctly on the desktop as icon widgets (just drag and drop) [02:51] You could also use a Quicklaunch widget and create a .dekstop file [02:52] I tried that but it is not possible to change the indivitual icons that way. Only icons for file types. [03:02] алрп [03:13] Well, WoW worked fine. PWI took a fair bit of work to get going properly. [03:14] In In fact I am still working on it [03:15] It works great if I launch it from konsole or dolphin but via the folder view thing ... all bets are off [03:21] KerrMD: the folder view isnt designed for launching applications, its best to drag the icons dircetly to the desktop or use somehting like the quick launch widget [03:21] Neither of which allow me to change the icon of a given file. [03:21] speaking of changing icons..I need help to change the skype icon in the systray. I hate the green color, since it doesn't fit with my desktop [03:22] WB Link.. it's icons all around tonight [03:22] :/ === Linkmaster is now known as su === su is now known as Linkmaster [03:23] KerrMD: are you sure? I can change the icon of desktop files i drag to the desktop [03:24] * Linkmaster still is wondering how to change a systray icon [03:25] Linkmaster: depends... some application build in the icon so cannot be change... others try the system icons first (located at ~/.local/share/icons/THEME/SIZE/CAT ^^ if you can replace an icon thats where you would [03:26] Thank you for giving me the location! now all hell will break loose with this stupid skype icon.. [03:27] Linkmaster: system level icons should be at /usr/share/icons [03:27] I don't even have an 'icons' folder in the .local/share path [03:27] though if any application is going to have its icons inbuilt I would bet skype would be one of them :( [03:28] I'll force it to change then [03:28] Linkmaster: then that means you dont ahve any custom icons, you can create it with the same structure as the one in /usr/share/icons to override any there [03:28] * Linkmaster has no clue what he's doing [03:29] its called 'skype.png' can I simply modify the file and save it, and hopefully it'll work? [03:29] Linkmaster: hopefully... though that might just change the desktop icons [03:30] * Linkmaster doesn't use desktop icons [03:31] most of whats in my icon folder is simply the cursor themes[which I always wanted to know how to get more of] [03:32] first time trying Krita :P [03:49] internet issues. But I just finished wasting my time trying to edit the desktop icon-which I don't even use. I didn't think about it until I was halfway done. Anyone happen to know where that annoying green systray icon is located? [03:55] anyone? [03:59] toyla: whats your question? [04:00] new to irc, want to say hello:D [04:00] toyla: then just say hello :) [04:00] toyla: hello [04:00] It's 4 in the morning in london, thought noone would be here,lol [04:01] Nah, theres people here worldwide [04:01] its not 4 everywhere :) [04:01] I'm canadian, 8 PM here [04:02] American, 11PM [04:02] Shouldn't be canada and USA in the same time zone?

[06:29] are you talking about just having both gnome and kde on the same system? [06:29] or on seperate partitions? [06:29] seperate partitions [06:30] theoretically, as long as you share the same /home partition the game data should persist [06:30] maybe you could mount the other parition ? [06:30] but the question is, why do you have 2 separate installs of ubuntu and kubuntu? [06:30] pinguy and kubuntu [06:31] it's nice [06:31] anyway, most applications will store their data in $HOME somewhere, so sharing the same home should work [06:32] the only tricky part may be making sure you have the same username, UID and GID on both systems [06:32] yea i was just thinking that [06:33] well it's the same kernel so that shouldn't be a problem right? [06:33] usernames, UIDs and GIDs have nothing to do with kernels [06:34] it's just information stored on the system and in the filesystem itself [06:34] most systems (at least debian based) will start at UID/GID 1000, so just make sure you have the same username in that case [06:36] right on thanks man [07:01] * mino stares [07:04] bleat. === miguel is now known as Guest25878 === gremset_ is now known as gremset === OerHeks is now known as Oer [08:24] hi bot [08:25] bot [08:50] hi [08:50] do you know a way to restore deleted partition form hdd?

[18:14] mrafcho001: It doesn't get in your way then. :-) [18:14] Or consume valuable system resources. [18:14] mrafcho001: mmm mah nothing , maibe some little stuff with kmail [18:14] mrafcho001: like DarthFrog said [18:14] But you will be disabling the capabilities of the semantic desktop. [18:14] and of course i guess dolphin i guess [18:14] kaddressbook will be completely unusable [18:14] Peace-: I could live without KMail, but everything else should work? [18:14] mrafcho001: try , i did that withtout problems [18:15] if you get some strange stuff enable it again [18:15] i didn't [18:15] :) [18:15] i use vlc dolphin amarok kdenlive without problems [18:16] mrafcho001: you will not able to use advanced filtering on dolphin but who cares xD ? [18:16] apachelogger: Kaddressbook depends upon Akonadi? I didn't know that. Mind you, I use Thunderbird anyway so it wouldn't affect me. [18:26] any graphical item to add contents to context menu on Kubuntu, by default or by installing any package from repos in order to do it? [18:28] kfind, for instance [18:30] qbittorent= awesome [18:30] purge ktorrent [18:30] proffit [18:37] Hal-Emmerich: in dolphin, press alt+. to make invisible folders and files visible [18:38] hello, i am on Kubuntu 11.04 (natty) and knetworkmanager doesn't autostart. Is there a setting anywhere to do this? [18:38] naftilos76: I think that if it is running when you logout, it will start again the next time you login [18:39] naftilos76: knetworkmanager is replaced by the network management plasmoid I think [18:40] what is the related plasmoid pkg that must be installed? [18:40] anybody? [18:41] plasma-widget-networkmanagement [18:41] so i don't get to see the usual network icon on the taskbar? [18:41] naftilos76: depends on your distro, I think most of them already install them by default if you have kde [18:41] and that should be installed by default [18:41] wind-rider: "distro" shouldn't be a question in this channel ;) [18:41] check your systray settings if the NM item is checked [18:41] there are distros built based on kubuntu [18:42] szal: ho, sorry :P you're right :P [18:42] apachelogger: do we support these? [18:42] that is probably my problem [18:42] installing now... [18:43] does anybody know if the Calligra snapshot release is being packaged already? [18:43] wind-rider: actually there are a script to compile calligra [18:43] maybe in some experimental ppa? [18:43] wind-rider: sudo apt-get build koffice [18:43] wind-rider: then [18:44] you have to use that [18:44] script but it's not safe for noob users [18:44] well.. [18:44] Peace-: yes, thx :) I saw it before, but it would lower the treshold for people to test calligra [18:44] if they don't have to do the extra build effort [18:45] Peace-: just like the kde pim that could be tested from the kubuntu experimental ppa [18:45] Peace-: that will build koffice not calligra [18:45] apachelogger: it will install the build dependencies [18:45] apachelogger: after that you will have to run the build script [18:45] build-dep installs the build dependencies [18:46] apachelogger: welll that will not install [18:46] apachelogger: taht will install what you need to compile [18:46] calligra it's the same of koffice [18:46] i mean -devs [18:46] no it is not [18:46] omg [18:46] they are two completely different products [18:46] only that one is a fork of the other [18:46] calligra it's just koffice renamed [18:46] . [18:47] that is like saying safari is like konqueror [18:47] so , to build [18:47] apachelogger: well i am on krita group [18:47] btw [18:47] Peace-, apachelogger: but in #Calligra it was said that kubuntu would provide packages for calligra - it would save people a lot of time if not everybody has to compile it themselves [18:47] so I was wondering if there was any news about it :) [18:48] wind-rider: i guess the best it's to compile them [18:48] wind-rider: likely not going to happen before a stable release comes [18:48] wind-rider: what you could do is ask the project neon team nicely whether they could provide calligra packages [18:50] ingwa from #Calligra said yesterday that people from kubuntu would provide packages, so I think it is going to happen? [18:50] apachelogger: krita it's the same on calligra and on koffice [18:50] :) [18:50] Peace-: so you sync krita into koffice? [18:51] wind-rider: not unless they release something worth packaging [18:51] sudo apt-get build-dep koffice = you have not to install by your hand all the freaking packages you need to compile calligra apachelogger [18:51] kubuntu usually does not package snapshots for various reasons [18:51] that's the point [18:52] Peace-: I get that, saying that calligra and koffice are the same is still wrong though [18:52] apachelogger: ok. you say one thing, ingwa says the opposite. who to believe...? [18:52] apachelogger: i have said the same , i mean -devs [18:52] you should understand what does it means [18:53] what means [18:53] wind-rider: depends on who you like better ;) [18:53] Peace-: yes, it means that you are saying that calligra's dependencies will not ever change in a way that they would diverge from koffice [18:53] they are quite the same [18:53] so to compile or [18:54] you install one by one all the devs [18:54] *right now* they are [18:54] or you do that command [18:54] apachelogger: well i am not in the future ? [18:54] or am i? [18:54] waste of time [18:54] -.- [18:59] hello [19:00] I search a program with I can split my terminal control in 4 windows, konsole seams not to do that [19:03] floown: you mean on the same console, divided in 4 panes? [19:03] lcb: yes [19:03] (sorry for my english ^^) [19:04] multitail ! [19:05] floown: it's ok. No, as far as i know you can't. But you could have as many as you want tabs and/or terminal windows. [19:05] Ok, next question [19:05] well, dvtm could do that, which is essentially a tiled window manager for a terminal [19:05] And thank you for your help on the previous one [19:06] I'm trying to use the login screen settings to enable auto login, but cliccking the 'Unlock' button does nothing [19:06] No password prompt or anything [19:06] http://www.tenshu.net/terminator/ [19:07] Has anyone ever heard of this? I notice there was a reported issue with 9.something [19:08] Hal-Emmerich: do you have on that particular configuration dialog, at the top, "Configure the login manager (KDM)? [19:08] I do not. It just says 'Login Screen Settings: When the computer starts up:' is greyed out [19:09] Hal-Emmerich: aren't you mixing environments on that Kubuntu? [19:09] Hal-Emmerich: that might be the problem... [19:09] I don't believe so. It's a mythbuntu box with kubuntu on top [19:10] and I'm trying to strictly use KDE [19:10] Hal-Emmerich: hold on... [19:11] I think I found it actually [19:12] well, i didn't find what i want, but under System Settings [19:12] Yeah. Theres a separate setting for it, I just noticed that [19:12] System Administration | Login Screen | Convenience [19:14] * Hal-Emmerich nods [19:14] Thaks [19:14] *Thanks [19:14] Hal-Emmerichon System Administration, when you need a special function, write it on the top right dialog and search it on the left options [19:15] .. ok. That is cool [19:15] Hal-Emmerich: i'm curious... what app were you using to get that need of unlocking? [19:16] Applications > System > Login Screen [19:16] checking... :) [19:17] yeap.. looks like you have remains or no default KDE apps in there [19:17] Yeah. Thats quite possible. There was XFCE in behind this at one point [19:17] probably [19:17] But I thought Kubuntu would make a better looking HTPC [19:17] Which.. it does. XFCE looked -boring- [19:18] KDE apps are very well integrated, indeed. no need of too much to accomplish what we need [19:18] Hal-Emmerich: XFCE is another story... better for low RAMs systems [19:19] Yeah. I'm noticing that. It's a refreshing change from the utilitarian I've seen from most desktop managers [19:19] it's good anyway, its own way [19:19] It's like 'If I wanted bare bones, I'd just run the damn shell. Give me something pretty' [19:20] yes [19:20] I did use XFCE at one point on an older HTPC setup, though. I was surprised with how well it performed [19:20] pretty fast [19:20] On a P4, Geforce 6200, and only 512 megs of ram, I had it working quite well. But this is an AMD X2 with 4 gigs of ram and an ATI x1900. [19:21] :) [19:21] «Sharing» To change the Context Menu on Desktop do the keyboard dcombo: Alt+D+S | select Mouse Actions | click on the third icon from the left to "Configure Contextual Menu Plugin". Not too much to do in there but useful, anyway. [19:22] ... i need one to add kfind. that one seems not doing the job. but while digging and dismantle my system i discovered that one. [19:22] kfind? [19:23] *to find files and folders [19:23] Thats right. Everything in this is modular isn't it? I'm so used to Search just being there and not being able to say which program I want to search [19:24] yeap [19:42] привет всем=) [19:58] I have a question to discuss [19:58] Who can give me few minutes? [20:00] totally depends on what you have in mind: it's always best simply to state the problem and find out if someone can help [20:06] hi all, i've just re-installed natty and got this problem (http://imagebin.org/154391) with gtk apps: some buttons & menu are oversized! why? how to solve? [20:41] I can't start chrome except if I run it from konsole [20:43] maybe I should add it to autostart :) [20:47] anyone know the current state of kolab with ubuntu server? There is a wiki page talking about it being included with 10.10 server, but not sure if it's working, don't see any release news? [20:54] anyone? === k is now known as Guest28759 [21:18] so I did add it to autorun and that's it [21:18] :P [21:23] !kopete [21:23] Instant Messenger Client Kopete (http://kopete.kde.org) supports MSN, Jabber, AIM, YIM, Gadu-Gadu, Novell Groupwise, ICQ and, in KDE 3, IRC. See also !Pidgin [21:23] for gigles, has anybody managed to get google voice to work with kopete? [21:24] hello. i deleted ''wallpaperclock'', trough screenlet and plamoid, but i still see it running switching desktop effects, it runs 0.5 secs before config changes, any idea for purgeing it, thnx? === dan__ is now known as dan_l [21:51] hi [21:52] hi all [21:52] hiya lifeless [21:53] When from you& [21:53] I vtry bzd speak eng [21:53] i very bad speak eng [21:56] oh. [21:57] I am in the process of switching from ubuntu to kubuntu; I have a question for which I cannot find the answer online... In ubuntu I could make a script utilizing gconftool-2 to change various settings in the OS. This would set many things up the way I wanted after a new install. Does kubuntu have a similar feature? Where are the settings files stored (in ubuntu it was ~/.gconf)? In summary, I [21:57] ololo [21:58] oh, it cut off: In summary, I would like to be able to modify things like "Desktop Effects", "Window Behavior", and the panels' settings via the terminal. [22:02] djh2400: the settings are located in ~/.kde/share/config/ and/or apps/ [22:03] djh2400: and adjusting those settings via terminal, I'm not aware of any readymade tools for those, but the settings are in plaintext files which are read at startup [22:04] is anybody running google talk over kopete? [22:04] Tm_T: it appears that 'kwriteconfig' may be a cli tool to do the job. i am having trouble locating the exact files, but i will look in those directories [22:05] djh2400: ah, yes, forgot that app [22:06] dan_l: I tried google talk in kopete before, why? [22:06] Tm_T: also, ubuntu came equipped with 'gconf-editor', which was a GUI to view all the settings. does kubuntu have a similar program? I can't find anything in the package kit. [22:06] Jozefk: I"m trying to figure out if my kopete is screwed up. Allegedly, if you open the program and check the properties of a gtalk account, it should give you some options pertaining to google voice. [22:07] Jozefk: If you were to peek (if you can) and should you see said options (and I don't), I'll know that there's something wrong with kopete [22:07] (assuming you're running natty) [22:07] djh2400: no, as every app keeps their own settings, KDE doesn't have centralised "registry" like GNOME [22:08] Tm_T: I see. I believe ~./kde/share/config/kwinrc may be one of the things I am looking for [22:12] dan_l: it looks strange on this version of kopete/kubuntu. yes this is 11.04 but gtalk doesn't seems to have all the options I saw few days ago on another distro [22:13] Jozefk: Want to earn a few bonus points? see if kopete-gcall is installed? [22:14] Tm_T: I know it sounds picky, but knowing it may help me figure things out: where would, say, the numlock-always-on setting be stored? I set it in the GUI, but is it stored in a file somewhere, too? [22:14] can I see that in terminal? [22:14] I don't know how to use apt-get to search for packages [22:15] emmm----just go into kpackagkit [22:15] and search for it there. It will show it to you as installed. Or not. [22:15] ( [22:15] (I'm linux stupid, so I don't have an elegant way of doing it) [22:16] it does not shows anything like kopete-gcall [22:17] but it does show some gtalk plugin for I don't know what :) [22:17] weird [22:18] that's why I never liked those GUI package managers :) [22:18] <_r1_> hi [22:18] they shows nothing :D [22:18] hi [22:19] jozefk: is it google-talkplugin? [22:19] <_r1_> I have some trouble in my mic configuration through phonon. Actually, it's like booster is absent (natty). Any doc/usefull help around? [22:20] no google-talkplugin also [22:22] interesting. [22:24] it must be some plugin you are right [22:25] I got it working now. I logged in but no option for calls [22:25] I will have to investigate [22:25] (inevitably this will take like 9years) [22:25] but whatever [22:25] <_r1_> is that preferable to deactivate pulseaudio? [22:26] I like pulseaudio [22:26] <_r1_> so you use phonon with pulseaudio then? [22:27] <_r1_> Cause I really want to understand if my micro issue is a bug or a misconfiguration [22:28] yes I have phonon and pulse [22:28] Tm_T: I have found what I was looking for. I'm so excited to use KDE instead of having the pestillence that are Unity or gnome-panels. Thank you very much for helping my transition come more easily! [22:28] <_r1_> jozefk: did you use a microphone? [22:29] not yet I just installed kubuntu first time :) [22:29] <_r1_> jozefk: ok... [22:30] actually I don't see I have pulse [22:30] might be I don't even have it [22:30] <_r1_> mmm [22:31] on live kubuntu it was there [22:31] <_r1_> I'll try to uninstall it [22:31] not I don't see it :( [22:31] <_r1_> 10) kubuntu-desktop recommends pulseaudio [22:31] <_r1_> damned [22:32] I like pulse but I don't see it on my system now. I have sound that I know I have :) [22:45] that missing think in kopete is jingle [22:45] thing* [22:45] "Kopete was not build with jingle enabled in ubuntu. You have to build it yourself."
