| reisio | does 10.04.2's installer go through an optional lvm/raid setup, or would I need another disc, or to do it manually? (in order of preference :p) | 06:35 |

| em | Hey how's it going? | 06:39 |
| === HdDgbalM is now known as LjL-Temp | ||
| rww | reisio: yes, you need to use the alternate CD to do LVM or RAID | 06:40 |
| em | Im thinking about switching to Kubuntu | 06:40 |
| em | Ubuntu doesnt seem to offer much these days for me. | 06:40 |
| em | And I haven't used Kubuntu in ages. | 06:40 |
| === LjL-Temp is now known as Guest96502 | ||
| reisio | rww: is it pretty intuitive? Just a frontend to parted? Should I just do it manually? :p | 06:40 |
| reisio | em: just remember not to reinstall :p | 06:40 |
| rww | reisio: if you've ever done it on Debian's installer, it's... well... identical. | 06:41 |
| reisio | unless you're really that bored you want to reinstall unnecessarily | 06:41 |
| rww | apart from that, no idea. I don't do it. | 06:41 |
| reisio | rww: haven't, I guess I'll assume it's decent | 06:41 |
| em | reisio: what do you mean? | 06:41 |
| reisio | em: I mean you can install "Kubuntu" from your existing Ubuntu install | 06:43 |
| reisio | it's just a set of software and configs | 06:43 |
| reisio | as is Ubuntu | 06:44 |
| reisio | the only thing reinstalling would likely give you is the opportunity to make partition changes, to experience the installer, to switch from 32-bit to 64-bit, stuff like that | 06:45 |
| reisio | Kubuntu gives you Ubuntu using KDE4 and some nice scripts and configs and different frontends is all :) | 06:46 |
| em | reisio: I dont like having qt and gtk / gnome and kde libs and apps all poluting the menus though. | 06:51 |
| tsimpson | you're thinking about it wrong | 06:51 |
| tsimpson | you shouldn't think "which KDE app is best for X", but "which app is best for X? I don't care about how the programmer decided to write it" | 06:52 |
| reisio | em: oh you can fix the menus | 06:53 |
| valorie | also, you can purge gnome if you want | 06:53 |
| reisio | em: but as for having both Qt and GTK+, both GNOME and KDE libs, unless you are ridiculously careful you're going to get that on any binary distro | 06:53 |
| valorie | after KDE is set up | 06:53 |
| reisio | someone else will know the commands better, I looked them up once | 06:53 |

| ubottu | If you want to remove all !Gnome packages and have a default !Kubuntu system follow the instructions here « https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PureKDE » | 06:53 |

| gem2501 | Hello! Since some time Fn+F4 (Sleep-Button) is not working anymore on my Thinkpad x201. I can induce sleep via Start Menu or by closing the lid when powered by battery. I'm running Kubuntu 10.04.2 LTS | 13:29 |
| MK`` | gem2501: do your other Fn combos work? | 13:35 |
| gem2501 | MK``: some of them. locking the screen (F2) does not, changing Wifi/Bluetooth does, Changing brightness and thinklight does | 13:39 |
| MK`` | Hm, I dunno. Only one that doesn't work for me is brightness, but that's because the kernel doesn't support my hardware for it yet | 13:40 |
| gem2501 | MK``: strange thing is: it worked until a few days or weeks ago. I can remember using them. I don't know what it was that changed in the meantime. | 13:41 |
| MK`` | Any major updates at all? The kind that require a restart to finish | 13:42 |
| gem2501 | MK``: yes, I think there was one. But I'm not really paying attention to what updates do, I have to shamefully admit | 13:43 |
| MK`` | haha | 13:44 |
| MK`` | you can try booting with the previous kernel version and see if it works | 13:45 |
| gem2501 | MK``: good point. I'll look up how to do this | 13:45 |
| MK`` | in grub | 13:45 |
| MK`` | it lists old versions of the kernel if you still have them installed | 13:45 |
| MK`` | you can choose them there | 13:45 |
| gem2501 | MK``: yes, I remember now… but I don't see the grub-menu at startup | 13:45 |
| MK`` | hold shift when booting | 13:47 |
| MK`` | that should force grub to display | 13:47 |
| gem2501 | MK``: okay, I'll try. thank you :) | 13:47 |
| george | So, there's something really annoying that happens often on my Kubuntu 11.04 (it happened also on 10.10) and I don't know if it's a bug or what. The thing is that when I watch a video in full screen (especially youtube or streams) kwin crashes frequently and if I press multimedia function key (to raise audio e.g.) it's almost sure that it will crash. Does anyone here have the same problem? Is there a fix? | 13:49 |
| gem2501 | MK``: hm. booting previous kernel version didn't solve the problem… | 13:53 |
| MK`` | Ah :( | 13:53 |
| gem2501 | MK``: I think it must be something about acpi, even though I don't have the slightest clue about it. I'd like to know whether pressing the button does anything at all. does the system just drop the event or is the key-combination somewhat not assigned? I don't get it. | 13:55 |
| MK`` | The Fn key is hardcoded, it's not something the kernel sees | 13:56 |
| MK`` | it's the only key like that heh | 13:56 |
| MK`` | (Or I mean, that the kernel sends a keycode for) | 13:56 |
| gem2501 | MK``: what does that mean? what about combinations with F-keys? | 13:57 |
| MK`` | in a terminal, run xev | 13:57 |
| MK`` | put your cursor in the little window and press some keys | 13:57 |
| MK`` | that will show you what I mean | 13:57 |
| gem2501 | MK``: I remember using that tool. For assigning the keys next to the cursors to home and end | 13:59 |
| gem2501 | MK``: or to get the keycodes to do so | 13:59 |
| MK`` | yeah I play with it a lot | 13:59 |
| MK`` | In fact, I just tried ubuntu's Unity a few minutes ago and it wiped out all my Super key combinations for workspace switching. Raged for a few minutes | 14:00 |
| gem2501 | MK``: o_O | 14:00 |
| gem2501 | MK``: well pressing Fn+F4 does something. I think it's the "MappingNotify" event | 14:00 |
| MK`` | It has that "you don't know what you're doing so I'll do it for you" casual user flavor heh. Never using that again | 14:00 |
| MK`` | xev shouldn't recognize any Fn combos | 14:01 |
| gem2501 | MK``: it does know I'm pressing Fn | 14:01 |
| MK`` | oh? Interesting | 14:01 |
| MK`` | I am on a different laptop though so I guess that's just different technology | 14:01 |
| gem2501 | MK``: strange thing is: when I hold Strg pressed, theres one KeyPress event, and one KeyRelease event. If I do so with Fn, there are several KeyPress + KeyRelease | 14:03 |
| gem2501 | s/Strg/Ctrl | 14:03 |
| MK`` | It did that for me with one of my keys, not sure what causes that heh | 14:03 |
| gem2501 | MK``: I think there's something wrong here… but I can't figure out what. *sigh* | 14:04 |
| MK`` | Wish I could help :( does it throw a kernel error? | 14:08 |
| gem2501 | MK``: I'd see that in dmesg, right? | 14:08 |
| MK`` | yes | 14:08 |
| gem2501 | MK``: then the answer is: no | 14:09 |
| MK`` | I have no idea then :( | 14:09 |
| gem2501 | MK``: me neither ;) but thanks anyways. | 14:11 |
| fayaz | i tried upgrading to kde4.6.4 using "apt-add-repository ppa:kubuntu-ppa/ppa && apt-get update && apt-get upgrade", but it seems that my kde is not fully upgraded yet. (okular is v0.12.1, kmail is v1.13.6...) what's wrong? | 14:14 |
| gem2501 | MK``: wait a sec… there seems to be "XF86WakeUP" to be assigned to Fn | 14:14 |
| MK`` | to Fn itself? | 14:15 |
| gem2501 | MK``: looks like it. it says in xev "keycode 151 (keysym 0x1008ff2b, XF86WakeUp)" when I keep Fn pressed. and it looks like the key is switching pressed/released all the time, even though I keep it pressed. | 14:16 |
| MK`` | in xev, try a combo, like, hold shift, then press and hold Fn, then let go of shift | 14:17 |

| yofel | desdenova_: depends on what you need, they're in kdelibs5-dev, kdepimlibs-dev, etc... | 14:46 |
| yofel | desdenova_: if you want to build an application that's packaged for kubuntu, you could try: sudo apt-get build-dep package | 14:47 |
| desdenova_ | hmm the application im trying to compile says it needs the kde4.4(or newer) headers | 14:47 |
| desdenova_ | i use kde 4.6 | 14:47 |
| yofel | if it's base kde headers you want kdelibs5-dev | 14:48 |

| sithlord48 | george: never used flash-aid. and i don't install flahs manually.. | 16:41 |
| sithlord48 | george: use the package managers flash package , "sudo apt-get install flashplugin-installer" | 16:42 |
| george | sithlord48:yes, but please look at this https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/flashplugin-nonfree/+bug/783976 | 16:43 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu bug 783976 in flashplugin-nonfree (Ubuntu) "flashplayer does not work anymore, after update to 10.3.181.14" [Undecided,New] | 16:43 |
| sithlord48 | thst not a bug, thats a person who has the gtalk plugin installed for some reason that package blocks flash from being installed correctly | 16:45 |
| sithlord48 | if you have that plugin installed then i suggest you remove it first. then install flash w/ the flashplugin-installer package , then you can reinstall gtalk plugin. | 16:46 |
| george | sithlord48 Ok, I'll try that. Thanks for your time. | 16:47 |
| sithlord48 | george: good luck hopefully that will fix ya | 16:48 |

| Peace- | MadRobot: rec test.wav | 19:29 |

| Peace- | MadRobot: your audio card should work on linux | 19:36 |
| Peace- | MadRobot: 1 or you have bad settitngs on alsamixer | 19:36 |
| Peace- | 2 or your mic doesn't work | 19:36 |

| Peace- | please | 19:39 |
| Peace- | MadRobot: kubuntu uses the same kernel of ubuntu so if a device works with ubuntu it will work with kubuntu | 19:40 |

| Peace- | MadRobot: so ... | 19:43 |
| Peace- | it will not record anything | 19:43 |
| MadRobot | On the right? | 19:44 |
| Peace- | input so | 19:44 |
| Peace- | look right on : alsamixer -V all | 19:44 |
| Peace- | you can read input so | 19:44 |
| Peace- | Front mic | 19:44 |
| Peace- | that is not correct | 19:44 |
| Peace- | it will use front mic = internal mic | 19:45 |

| lcb | hi | 23:12 |
| lcb | just a note of advice. fancytasks gave me a very hard time. virtual desks went away, no menus, no screens and i had to rename ~.kde and rebuild a new one. so.. if anyone with strange behavior on the desktops after adding widget fancytasks (and not being able to remove it by normal widget removal) just do the '$ sudo apt-get --purge remove plasma-widget-fancytasks' | 23:18 |

| === Quintasan_ is now known as Quintasan | ||
| Sami | I just installed Kubuntu 11.04 and I have problems :( | 23:20 |
| Sami | Would someone help me with kubuntu? | 23:20 |
| lcb | Sami: keep writing... problems... | 23:21 |
| Sami | Thank you | 23:21 |
| lcb | Sami: what type of problems? | 23:23 |
| Sami | I installed kubuntu on thinkpad t42. Sorry, it's old, I know. Anyway, it comes with ATI Mobility M7 7500 videocard. I installed open source video drivers as there no official driver for this videocard. Everything seems to work except I have pink or purple semi transparent background on any moving window. | 23:23 |
| Sami | How can I fix it? | 23:24 |
| Sami | I have screenshot too | 23:24 |
| lcb | Sami: i'm not familiar with thinkpads. can you use the generic driver (removing the proprietary one)? | 23:25 |
| Sami | When using generic drivers and enabling KDE effects i also get pink semi transparent background on moving windows. | 23:27 |
| Sami | Also, for 7500 there{s no propietary driver. I had to use open source one. | 23:28 |
| lcb | Sami: how about setting defaults on ATI Catalyst Control Center (in administrative mode)? And i mean not drastically changing the defaults | 23:28 |
| lcb | Sami: i would also try not enabling a lot of effects in one time. go by steps because you might get (probably) not enough ram. | 23:30 |
| Sami | lcb There's no official ATI Catalyst drivers for this card. | 23:31 |
| lcb | Sami: don't forget you need to restart after changing any display options | 23:31 |
| Sami | Yes, I'll try now one by one. Thank you. | 23:31 |
