| sgrover | help? Moved my drive from an old box to a new desktop. Boots up rus fine. Except screen resolution. Stuck at 1280x1024 on a 24" monitor that supports 1920x1080. | 00:20 |
|---|---|---|
| miglo | what is the best procedure to upgrade from Karmic Koala to the latest version of Kubuntu? | 00:21 |
| sgrover | old system had nvidia. new system is integrated intel video. Connecting via SVGA and a DVI adapater (no SVGA on desktop, and no DVI cable at the moment) | 00:21 |
| miglo | shall I download the latest image and make a new installation? | 00:22 |
| sgrover | miglo: you can upgrade in place | 00:23 |
| sgrover | Not sure if Karmic had the nice graphical prompts sorted out yet or not. But you can drop to command line and do a dist-upgrade. | 00:23 |
| sgrover | (i'm looking for the command for you...) | 00:24 |
| Unit193 | miglo: You're on 9.10, you would have to 9.10 > 10.04 > 10.10 > 11.04 or you could use a cd and upgrade | 00:24 |
| Unit193 | dist-upgrade isn't it | 00:24 |
| khindenburg | After my upgrade to KDE 4.6.5, konsole won't start - stays it is built w/ wrong Qt version | 00:25 |
| miglo | doing multiple upgrade steps would take longer than a complete installation, maybe | 00:25 |
| miglo | what is the best or fastest solution in my case? | 00:26 |
| bazhang | miglo, fastest is make back ups and fresh install. | 00:27 |
| bazhang | miglo, do you have a separate /home? | 00:27 |
| miglo | bazhang: yes, I have | 00:28 |
| bazhang | miglo, then set the installer to leave /home alone and fresh install | 00:29 |
| almigi2 | khindenburg: how long ago did you do the upgrade? if you update apt, does it show any thing else that needs to be updated? | 00:30 |
| miglo | bazhang: I have another partition with some data on it. should also be no problem, I guess. Is ext4 still a good choice? | 00:30 |
| khindenburg | almigi2: I did the full update a few hours ago; I just checked again and nothing to upgrade | 00:31 |
| bazhang | miglo, yes ext4 is a very good choice | 00:31 |
| almigi2 | khindenburg: odd my best guess would be that you did an upgrade before all the files were ready.... | 00:31 |
| khindenburg | Cannot mix incompatible Qt library (version 0x1040701) with this library (version 0x1040702 | 00:32 |
| miglo | ok, will download kubuntu now - thanks for help | 00:33 |
| bazhang | np | 00:33 |
| almigi2 | hmmm... I dunno. I've only been using kubuntu for a an hour or so... as soon as I installed it, I did the update and it worked.... sorry I don't know what else it could be | 00:33 |
| mranima | anyone experiencing sudden freezes? when using chromium or any other browsers? | 00:35 |
| yofel | khindenburg: while I'm starting my natty VM, what's the version of libqtcore4 for example? | 00:37 |
| miglo | selected the 64bit version of kubuntu | 00:37 |
| jordan_ | hey does anyone know how to put ringtones on a iphone 4? | 00:39 |
| vietred | hi, I'm using Kubuntu natty, when I press Ctrl + Alt + F1-6, I can only see a "_". Can anyone help me? | 00:41 |
| OerHeks | vietred, wait 2-3 sec after pressing ctrl alt F2 | 00:42 |
| OerHeks | and F7 for returning to this gui | 00:42 |
| miglo | vietred, is there no prompt? | 00:43 |
| yofel | there can be no prompt if the system is stuck on boot and he's trying to switch to the tty's in that condition | 00:43 |
| yofel | soo... why are you trying to get to them? | 00:43 |
| vietred | well, I wait about 10 secs but nothing happen | 00:45 |
| vietred | yofel: my system is OK, I just want to learn about tty :D | 00:46 |
| yofel | hm, then the login prompts *should* be there :/ | 00:46 |
| vietred | what files should I check to see if tty is disable? | 00:48 |
| yofel | shouldn't be disabled unless you messed with runlevels | 00:50 |
| yofel | try 'sudo service tty2 start' and see if F2 has a login prompt now | 00:50 |
| yofel | /var/log/syslog *might* have something | 00:50 |
| vietred | yofel: this is what I got: Warning: Fake initctl called, doing nothing. | 00:51 |
| yofel | I'm clueless then :/ | 00:52 |
| miglo | hm, shouldn't there be a process like getty if a tty is available? | 00:53 |
| yofel | there should, 6 of them | 00:54 |
| miglo | so vietred could check the process table | 00:54 |
| vietred | yofel: me too :(, I haven't experience anything like this before | 00:54 |
| yofel | check for the getty processes as miglo said | 00:54 |
| vietred | use top? | 00:55 |
| yofel | top or ps | 00:55 |
| yofel | ps -e | 00:55 |
| vietred | getty is not in process table | 00:56 |
| vietred | so I have to start getty? | 00:58 |
| yofel | hm, when I restart tty2 here I don't get a warning, but I don't know why it would complain about a fake initctl o.O | 00:59 |
| yofel | unless you messed with init? | 01:00 |
| vietred | I did a fresh install of kubuntu a month ago, and I haven't mess with it (yet) | 01:01 |
| yofel | ok | 01:01 |
| yofel | vietred: what does this give you? dpkg -S $(which initctl) | 01:06 |
| vietred | upstart: /sbin/initctl | 01:07 |
| yofel | vietred: and 'ls -l /sbin/initctl' ? | 01:09 |
| vietred | -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 84 2011-06-16 11:57 /sbin/initctl | 01:10 |
| yofel | ok, that's far too small, what's in there? | 01:11 |
| yofel | or got a /sbin/initctl.real or so ? | 01:11 |
| khindenburg | yofel: 4:4.7.2-0ubuntu6.1 | 01:12 |
| vietred | err, I only got 1 line | 01:13 |
| yofel | that is? | 01:13 |
| vietred | -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 84 2011-06-16 11:57 /sbin/initctl | 01:14 |
| yofel | vietred: no, can you open that file in an editor and check what's in it? | 01:14 |
| yofel | I would expect it's a script of some sort | 01:14 |
| vietred | ok | 01:14 |
| vietred | #!/bin/sh | 01:15 |
| vietred | echo 1>&2 | 01:15 |
| vietred | echo 'Warning: Fake initctl called, doing nothing.' 1>&2 | 01:15 |
| vietred | exit 0 | 01:15 |
| FloodBotK1 | vietred: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. | 01:15 |
| yofel | where did that come from o.O | 01:15 |
| yofel | vietred: sudo apt-get install --reinstall upstart | 01:16 |
| vietred | looks like that script does only 1 thing :-S | 01:16 |
| vietred | yofel: don't ask me, I'm what-the-helling myself :)) | 01:17 |
| vietred | install done | 01:17 |
| yofel | khindenburg: same here, but konsole works fine (konsole 2.6.4 from 4.6.5), I'm tired so can't help you more, but feel free to file a bug for now https://bugs.launchpad.net/kubuntu-ppa/+filebug | 01:18 |
| yofel | vietred: try to restart tty2 again | 01:18 |
| khindenburg | yofel: ok, np - a reinstall didn't work | 01:18 |
| yofel | khindenburg: just asking, but you don't have any LD_LIBRARY_PATH or so set? | 01:19 |
| vietred | yofel: tty2 start/running, process 2137 | 01:20 |
| vietred | Can I press ctrl + alt + F2 now? | 01:20 |
| yofel | yep, should work now | 01:20 |
| vietred | yes, it works :D | 01:21 |
| vietred | thank you :D | 01:21 |
| yofel | homework: find out how you managed to mess up init :P | 01:21 |
| yofel | although that script is usually something used to disable services in a chroot | 01:21 |
| vietred | haha | 01:22 |
| * yofel is off to bed, good night | 01:26 | |
| vietred | good night yofel (it's morning here) | 01:29 |
| sri13 | Hi all | 01:45 |
| sri13 | How can I update to latest kde version in kubuntu ? | 01:45 |
| lcb | sri13: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade (if not upgradeable that's because is not supported yet) | 01:57 |
| sri13 | lcb: Thanks :) | 01:59 |
| lcb | ;) | 01:59 |

| uofm49426 | question is kubuntu 11.04 having the same problem off stalling that xubuntu and ubuntu is having | 05:51 |
| uofm49426 | both xubuntu and ubuntu 11.04 stalls after sometime in screensavers they tell everyone just go to a blank screan but thats not a fix | 05:54 |
| preecher | uofm49426 had the same probs with xubu---but ive had no probs with anythin on kubuntu & on my end it runs faster than ubu unity---so im hooked on the blue | 05:58 |
| uofm49426 | i can use kde use to mintkde | 06:00 |
| uofm49426 | when i leave for 15 minute and return to a stalled computer well that sucked lol | 06:02 |
| uofm49426 | had the problem on a x41 thinkpad with a intel 915 | 06:03 |
| uofm49426 | was just thinking its a intel problem | 06:03 |
| uofm49426 | then my computer with nv 330 gt amd x2 be-2400 and 2 gb of ram | 06:04 |
| uofm49426 | i was like ok its a big problem and not just the one computer | 06:05 |
| preecher | one way i kept it from freezing on my end was only using the ant with a spotlight screensaver and setting it not to change savers or random | 06:05 |
| preecher | but again that wasnt a fix | 06:06 |
| uofm49426 | no problem with 10:10 work perfect if i get the same with kde im just staying at 10.10 till the next build | 06:08 |
| preecher | well im on kubuntu 11.04 & have it on 2 thinkpads & a acer netbook and have had zero problems | 06:09 |
| uofm49426 | i dont like the new gnome 3 look anyways | 06:09 |
| uofm49426 | i know you can go to a classic look | 06:10 |
| uofm49426 | but i cant use the cloudos looking gnome | 06:11 |
| preecher | i used gnome- initially i didnt like unity but was warming to it- tried kubuntu & the noticed increase in speed & just plain out good looks swayed me | 06:12 |
| preecher | i dont know how the devs did it--i always heard kde was a resource hog but in all my instances ive seen the opposite at least compared to the few distros ive used | 06:14 |
| uofm49426 | fedora is alright to but they lack software in repos | 06:15 |
| uofm49426 | how does buntu protect the users password since its also the root password | 06:17 |
| uofm49426 | and a user pass is so much easier to hack | 06:18 |
| atomicfusion | uofm49426: root doesnt usually have a password, thats what sudo is for | 06:19 |
| uofm49426 | my brother wants to know hes a debian writer | 06:19 |
| uofm49426 | he was telling me how easy it is to get a sudo password | 06:20 |
| atomicfusion | as far as i know, the only ways to get a "sudo" password would eb keylogging it, or replacing sudo with another program | 06:21 |
| tsimpson | uofm49426: a user password is no easier to get than a root password | 06:23 |
| tsimpson | it's actually harder, as you _need_ to know the user name to "crack" the password, and when the only well-known one (root) is disabled, your chances are reduced greatly | 06:24 |
| LINKSWORD2 | Hey all. | 06:50 |
| LINKSWORD2 | Can I get Kubuntu, KDE or Knotify to tell mw if Caps Lock, Scroll Lock or Num Lock are on??? | 06:53 |

| tsimpson | it's in universe, so not installed by default | 07:09 |
| LINKSWORD2 | Mkay... | 07:11 |

| LINKSWORD2 | On the main toolbar? :/ | 07:12 |
| tsimpson | where ever you want it | 07:13 |
| tsimpson | it's a widget, it can be on the panel or on the desktop, whatever you want | 07:13 |
| LINKSWORD2 | I'm something of a minimalist. I don't like icons on the desktop... | 07:13 |
| LINKSWORD2 | tsimpson: Do you know of anything else that can notify me, without having to add it to a toolbar? | 07:16 |

| chaitu | Greetings All. Am kinda new to linux and kubuntu and wondering, am I the only one who has these awkward fonts on browsers? | 07:23 |

| LINKSWORD2 | I'll do what I can to help. | 07:24 |
| LINKSWORD2 | tsimpson: Neither the widget nor the control panel settings are creating a notification... And I have toggled the Caps Lock and Num Lock to test it. | 07:25 |
| nir | hello everyone | 07:26 |
| tsimpson | LINKSWORD2: I tested, works fine. did you edit the notifications? | 07:26 |
| nir | guys how playes assault cube/?? | 07:27 |
| chaitu | here it goes : http://imagebin.org/162403 | 07:28 |
| LINKSWORD2 | tsimpson: I'm not sure what's going on.... | 07:28 |
| LINKSWORD2 | If you need to, I can open the remote desktop tie-in... | 07:28 |
| chaitu | LINKSWORD2:Do you think you can help me? | 07:31 |
| tsimpson | LINKSWORD2: System Settings -> Accessibility -> Modifier Keys, check the "Use KDE's system notification mechanism whenever a modifier or locking key changes its state" option, click the "Configure Notifications..." button, check the "Show a message in a popup" for "A lock key has been deactivated" and "A lock key has been activated" | 07:31 |
| LINKSWORD2 | Just a quick moment, chaitu. | 07:31 |
| chaitu | cool thanks. | 07:31 |
| LINKSWORD2 | Thanks, tsimpson. Looks like it works now. | 07:33 |
| LINKSWORD2 | All right, chaitu. I'm taking a look at your screenshot now. | 07:33 |
| chaitu | k | 07:34 |
| chaitu | I told you guys my fonts are scary | 07:35 |
| chaitu | scared you LINKSWORD2? ;) | 07:36 |
| LINKSWORD2 | That's bizarre... I keep getting disconnected... Randomly... | 07:36 |
| LINKSWORD2 | lol @ chaitu | 07:36 |
| LINKSWORD2 | I was about to say that everything looks normal from my end, as I look at your screenshot. | 07:36 |
| LINKSWORD2 | O_o Whoa... | 07:36 |
| LINKSWORD2 | It appears you have some sort of Arabic or variant language font... | 07:37 |
| chaitu | let me give you its name | 07:37 |
| LINKSWORD2 | I assume you are an English user... | 07:37 |
| chaitu | Yes | 07:38 |
| LINKSWORD2 | Ok. | 07:38 |
| LINKSWORD2 | Does it appear on other windows, outside of your internet browsers? | 07:39 |
| chaitu | http://imagebin.org/162405 | 07:39 |
| chaitu | yes all browsers look the same. | 07:39 |
| LINKSWORD2 | OK. | 07:40 |
| LINKSWORD2 | You said you're new to Kubuntu. | 07:40 |
| LINKSWORD2 | Have you checked the language settings? | 07:41 |
| chaitu | you mean in chrome? or in kubuntu? | 07:41 |
| LINKSWORD2 | Alt + F1 opens the Launch menu in Kubuntu. | 07:42 |
| LINKSWORD2 | From there, look for a crossed hammer and wrench.... That will be your System Settings. | 07:42 |
| LINKSWORD2 | In there, a blue flag will be labeled Locale. | 07:43 |
| LINKSWORD2 | Hopefully, your problem will be in there, and easily changed... | 07:43 |
| chaitu | well it has India in there. However all other settings are looking just fine | 07:43 |
| chaitu | I read this has something to do with xfonts or something | 07:44 |
| LINKSWORD2 | Go ahead and change it. I assume you're in the continental USA? | 07:44 |
| LINKSWORD2 | A lot of computer systems, not just Kubuntu can be picky, if not anal about which regional settings you choose. | 07:45 |
| chaitu | Nope. Am in India | 07:45 |
| LINKSWORD2 | O_o? | 07:45 |
| chaitu | :) | 07:45 |
| LINKSWORD2 | Heh... | 07:45 |
| LINKSWORD2 | All right... :/ | 07:45 |
| LINKSWORD2 | Well, as I was saying, a lot of computer systems can be picky about which regional settings you choose. | 07:46 |
| LINKSWORD2 | Try changing them to something you know you can understand. (Example being US English.) | 07:46 |
| chaitu | umnn doing that | 07:47 |
| LINKSWORD2 | I'm searching for other options, in case that doesn't solve the problem. | 07:48 |
| chaitu | Thanks a ton | 07:49 |
| LINKSWORD2 | chaitu: For what I can see of your background image, it's really pretty. :) | 07:49 |
| chaitu | hehe thanks..am still figuring out how to have this system setup.. | 07:50 |
| chaitu | would you be kind enough to upload your browser fonts once? just wanna see if it looks like windows for you guys | 07:51 |
| LINKSWORD2 | I only have the KDE defaults. | 07:51 |
| LINKSWORD2 | *Kubuntu* defaults. | 07:51 |
| LINKSWORD2 | Sorry, I get the Kubuntu OS and the KDE Plasma engine mixed up, a bit. | 07:52 |
| chaitu | so it just shows up as normal site on windows for you? no difference in fonts at all? | 07:52 |
| tsimpson | chaitu: you should probably start by changing your encoding to UTF-8, rather than ISO-8859-1 | 07:53 |
| LINKSWORD2 | Aha... I didn't even think about character encoding. :/ | 07:54 |
| LINKSWORD2 | Hmm... | 07:55 |
| chaitu | ok cool.let me do that tsimpson . thanks | 07:55 |
| chaitu | I have utf 16LE | 07:56 |
| LINKSWORD2 | Do you not have UTF-8?> | 07:56 |
| tsimpson | most web servers don't like 16 or 32 | 07:56 |
| chaitu | but i must say it did improve | 07:57 |
| chaitu | umnn can I install utf 8? | 07:57 |
| tsimpson | you shouldn't have to no, it's the first option for me | 07:57 |
| LINKSWORD2 | It is also the same for me. | 07:58 |
| chaitu | oh well..am sorry. yes i have it in there | 07:59 |
| LINKSWORD2 | Well, let's hit the UTF-8 and see if Google Chrome cooperates... | 08:00 |
| chaitu | whats the standard font you guys use? I have it as times new roman | 08:01 |
| LINKSWORD2 | I do not think Times New Roman is available outside of Windows. | 08:01 |
| LINKSWORD2 | It is a copyrighted font. | 08:01 |
| chaitu | you can install xfonts or something.. | 08:02 |
| chaitu | that gives you that option.. | 08:02 |
| LINKSWORD2 | The equivalent font is Nimbus Roman No9. | 08:02 |
| * tsimpson uses -> http://people.ubuntu.com/~tsimpson/images/snapshot3.png | 08:03 | |
| LINKSWORD2 | Thankfully, where there is a will, there is a way.... | 08:03 |
| tsimpson | but I often have my monitor quite far from my face, in a vain attempt to stop by eyes from getting worse | 08:03 |
| LINKSWORD2 | Under the Bonnet? You're obviously set to British English. :D | 08:04 |
| chaitu | does it come close to windows style browsing? | 08:04 |
| LINKSWORD2 | I feel like I want to slap the next person that mentions Windows. | 08:05 |
| tsimpson | I'm not sure what "windows style browsing" is really | 08:05 |
| chaitu | I mean the clarity and rendering | 08:05 |
| tsimpson | chrome basically looks/feels/acts the same on all platforms, as does firefox | 08:05 |
| LINKSWORD2 | Microsoft panders its victims with unstable, DOS-based crap that blue-screens, locks up, and crashes a million times over... | 08:05 |
| tsimpson | that's probably it's major "selling point" | 08:06 |
| * LINKSWORD2 agrees with tsimpson | 08:06 | |
| chaitu | tsimpson: I dont think it looks the same on linux and windows. I can clearly see the difference the way it shows up sites on windows and linux | 08:07 |
| chaitu | font is what am talking about. | 08:08 |
| tsimpson | you can change fonts, that's up to you | 08:08 |
| LINKSWORD2 | *facepalm* | 08:08 |
| chaitu | yes. but changing fonts wouldnt give you the same experience. | 08:08 |
| LINKSWORD2 | You know WHY Microsoft crap is so expensive? | 08:08 |
| tsimpson | also, some websites are poorly written and only designed to work with IE, rather than using the multitude of web standards out there | 08:08 |
| chaitu | am not rallying for windows here..just saying | 08:09 |
| LINKSWORD2 | There's over 400 copyrights cited, just in the initial base code... | 08:09 |
| chaitu | know any site which is written for all platforms? would love to see | 08:09 |

| chaitu | LINKSWORD2: heh I realise that and am not saying anything for windows here..I just want the sites to look better on this OS :) | 08:10 |
| tsimpson | chaitu: lots are, like google. but you have to decide which fonts you want (if you aren't happy with the default) | 08:10 |
| chaitu | ah..makes sense | 08:10 |
| tsimpson | customize it to where _you_ are happy with the look | 08:10 |
| LINKSWORD2 | chaitu: There are many similarities and many differences between each OS/ platform. | 08:11 |
| tsimpson | the good news is that many sites are getting better, as FF (and Chrome) become more adopted in windows they need to use real standards | 08:11 |
| tsimpson | ... and various mobile platforms | 08:12 |
| LINKSWORD2 | As you go along, I'm sure you'll find many of those similarities and differences. | 08:12 |
| LINKSWORD2 | It's up to you to customize for the look, feel, and performance that you want. | 08:12 |
| chaitu | I understand.. | 08:13 |
| LINKSWORD2 | For myself, for example.... I have a very resource-light computer system.... | 08:13 |
| LINKSWORD2 | One outdated enough that anything made after Windows 2000/ME is sluggish on it, at best... | 08:13 |
| LINKSWORD2 | So... I scrapped Microsoft's crap-fest and put Kubuntu on it instead. | 08:14 |
| LINKSWORD2 | .... And then I customized it, in many ways, to look like an Apple OSX platform. | 08:14 |
| LINKSWORD2 | Hehe. :D That's one thing I love about Linux systems. HIGHLY customizable. | 08:15 |

| lcb | that's really nasty | 12:00 |
| ben__ | hi | 12:04 |
| AlexZion | hi guys ,yesterday I experimented a strange behaviorof my Kubuntu 11.04, and trying again is the same , so probablly ia kind of bug i guess...., let me explain better | 12:27 |
| Tm_T | phoenixlzx: please keep this channel for Kubuntu support, thanks | 12:29 |
| AlexZion | normally when I login in my system, after everything is loaded, I connect my wireless which open up a kwalle windows, because the wireless password is indie a wallet ....., but if I do it too early it doesn't apper , and after that , the only way to connect the wireless is to restart the system and wait until everything is loaded , it si normal ... ? I mean , it happen just on my system ?, or is a common problem !?! | 12:30 |
| phoenixlzx | Tm_T: Are you a human?or bot?? | 12:30 |
| Tm_T | phoenixlzx: a human | 12:30 |
| Tm_T | AlexZion: hmmm, I haven't encountered that, you mean that in some cases kwallet fails to appear, thus not providing the password? | 12:31 |
| AlexZion | yeah ..... Tm_T, and after that it doesn't appear anymore , since I restart the system .... | 12:32 |
| Tm_T | AlexZion: hmmm, what happens if you manually launch kwalletmanager? | 12:32 |
| phoenixlzx | Tm_T: may be you are right because it is kubuntu support channel.but how can you bear the behavior like that?is that something a human should do?? | 12:32 |
| Tm_T | phoenixlzx: please, this channel is for Kubuntu support and only for that, you can continue the discussion with me in #kubuntu-offtopic for example | 12:33 |
| phoenixlzx | Tm_T: ok,i will post the message in #kubuntu-offtopic.thanks for remind | 12:34 |
| AlexZion | Tm_T: how should I do it !?! I mean open kwallet related to the connection ...., or opening the wallet is just enough ? | 12:37 |
| Tm_T | AlexZion: press alt+F2 and enter "kwalletmanager" without quotes, a wallet icon should appear to your systray if it runs | 12:38 |
| Tm_T | AlexZion: this is only to determine if the wallet system launches at all after the failure (: | 12:38 |
| AlexZion | yes I know how to open it .... :), ok so I'll try ..., I'll be back in few minutes ..... ;) | 12:39 |
| AlexZion | mhhhh, really strange... Tm_T , now I tried to connect it immediatelly when the desktop apper and it worked ...., so I guess the problem is if I try to connect while some other application is launching ......, usually at startup I have skype, amarok, akregator, nothing else...., so probablly something strange happens when one of these apps is opening up and I try to connect .... | 12:46 |
| AlexZion | .....and the point is , no one os these apps has a password stored on the wallet .... | 12:47 |
| AlexZion | anyway...., is not a big problem if you know it, just a bit unconfortable .... ;) | 12:49 |
| lcb | AlexZion: disable it in settings. | 12:50 |
| AlexZion | lcb there is a way to take out just the wireless pasword from the wallet !?! | 12:50 |
| AlexZion | because kwallet is really usefull for me except for the wireless password .. .:D | 12:51 |
| lcb | AlexZion: under Waccess Control" i believe | 12:52 |
| lcb | "Access Control" | 12:52 |
| AlexZion | lcb: Access Control !?! what is that ?, I don't have something called Access Control for what I know .... | 12:53 |
| lcb | AlexZion: i had issues with it too so i decided to disable kwallet at all. i never spent time to discover where the problems reside. | 12:54 |
| lcb | on the konsole type kwalletmanager | then click on the tab Access Control and expand kdewallet | 12:55 |
| AlexZion | yeah in the paste I did too, but rigth now I really need kwallet to store a lot of password like different ftp access, or some login and so on , so would be really nice to understand how to manage it ... | 12:55 |
| lcb | AlexZion: you might have in there one item for wireless | 12:57 |
| AlexZion | ok but on the access control settings , there is not a voice saying network manager .... | 12:57 |
| lcb | AlexZion: nothing.. like something related to networking?? | 12:58 |
| lcb | i can't tell you the correct one because mine is disabled as i said :( | 12:58 |
| AlexZion | no on the access control panel ...., I have something about it just on the wallet ... | 12:58 |
| Peace- | AlexZion: :) | 13:00 |
| Peace- | nice job on the channel AlexZion | 13:01 |
| AlexZion | anyway , I'll try to remove the wireless password , and after that try to avoid tha use oh kwallet from network manager , hopefully it will works ...., even if I never been lucjy with that ....., thanks... | 13:01 |
| AlexZion | hi Peace- what are you talking about !?! | 13:01 |
| Peace- | AlexZion: are you not italian? | 13:02 |
| BluesKaj | Howdy | 13:02 |
| Peace- | BluesKaj: hey | 13:02 |
| lcb | AlexZion: i would remove all that wireless point. since you are having some issues with the passwds. then configure it again | 13:02 |
| lcb | AlexZion: restart networking after doing it, if you do | 13:02 |
| Peace- | AlexZion: oh you had the problem :D | 13:02 |

| 31NAAPI8M | i wan't KDE 4.7rc ppa | 14:07 |
| ikonia | great, get it | 14:08 |
| 31NAAPI8M | is there kde4.7 rc ppa on launchpad | 14:10 |
| yofel | no | 14:10 |
| BluesKaj | yeah , it'll break your system ..tried it yesterday ...ended up in an unresponsive prompt , with no X | 14:10 |
| BluesKaj | 31NAAPI8M,^ | 14:11 |
| 31NAAPI8M | ? | 14:12 |
| BluesKaj | 31NAAPI8M, read what I posted above | 14:12 |
| BluesKaj | kde 4.7 isn't ready | 14:13 |
| 31NAAPI8M | thnks | 14:13 |
| 31NAAPI8M | BluseKaj : but my friend got 4.7 release candidate with pacman in arch. | 14:18 |
| lcb | do you guys know any data and software management suite for mobile devices? (meaning access to your device system and data and manipulating it) | 14:18 |
| lcb | 31NAAPI8M: not supported | 14:18 |
| lcb | 31NAAPI8M: not supported in a direct sense = by means of a normal installation and maintenance of the system you are running from the official and main source. | 14:20 |
| BluesKaj | 31NAAPI8M, well, it migh work with his HW in arhHc, but this is kubuntu and your HW may be different , hence diffrent results | 14:21 |
| 31NAAPI8M | ok, arch is rolling relase! and kubuntu is not rolling relase! :) | 14:23 |
| 31NAAPI8M | release | 14:24 |
| lcb | 31NAAPI8M: probably is rolling conscientiously on the backstage instead of on-the-fly patches/updates from "accessories"(in this case a graphical environment) | 14:26 |
| BluesKaj | 31NAAPI8M, if you want to try it , then go ahead..my post is just a warning abot what happened to me ! | 14:27 |
| lcb | 31NAAPI8M: you don't see too many problems here it's a symptom that all updates/grades are well tested before going to the "wild" | 14:28 |
| lcb | *here. it's a symp..* | 14:28 |
| khindenburg | After upgrade 4.6.5, I can't start konsole - any ideas how to resolve? Cannot mix incompatible Qt library (version 0x1040701) with this library (version 0x1040702) | 14:42 |
| lcb | "Cannot mix incompatible Qt library (version 0x1040701) with this library (version 0x1040702)" that says it all. Cannot mix a current system with a non tested one. | 14:44 |
| lcb | i think someone should add to the topic about unsupported "additions" to kubuntu | 14:46 |
| sorush20 | what program do I use to draw algorythms | 14:47 |
| sorush20 | algorithems | 14:47 |
| cdunlap | Has anyone had any trouble upgrading to KDE4.6.5 from the kubuntu ppa? | 14:51 |
| yofel | khindenburg: to continue from yesterday: are you on 32 or 64bit? LD_LIBRARY_PATH set in any way? | 14:55 |
| slsimic | What are the ways to set wireless connection in Kubuntu? I tried with Network Management plasmoid, but that way connection is made after I login into KDE. I tried wicd-kde also but wicd won't connect with my router with WPA2 encryption saying "Bad password". | 15:23 |
| Graf_Westerholt | !network | slsimic | 15:24 |
| ubottu | slsimic: Wireless documentation, including how-to guides and troubleshooting information, can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 15:24 |
| slsimic | Is there any other way to set and make wireless connection during startup? | 15:24 |
| sorush20 | !koffice | 15:24 |
| sorush20 | !koffice | 15:24 |
| sorush20 | how do i install koffice? | 15:25 |
| sorush20 | Its not there. | 15:25 |
| sorush20 | its not in the repositories | 15:26 |
| BluesKaj | !libreoffice | 15:26 |
| sorush20 | http://www.kde.org/applications/office/ | 15:26 |
| BluesKaj | !info | libreoffice | 15:27 |
| ubottu | 'libreoffice' is not a valid distribution: hardy, hardy-backports, hardy-proposed, kubuntu-backports, kubuntu-experimental, kubuntu-updates, lucid, lucid-backports, lucid-proposed, maverick, maverick-backports, maverick-proposed, medibuntu, natty, natty-backports, natty-proposed, oneiric, oneiric-backports, oneiric-proposed, partner, stable, testing, unstable | 15:27 |
| BluesKaj | really? | 15:27 |
| BluesKaj | !LibreOffice | 15:28 |
| slsimic | Graf_Westerholt: this info is rather old | 15:29 |
| BluesKaj | strange stuff ...this is weird it's in the repos | 15:29 |
| slsimic | even 8.04 is mentioned there | 15:29 |
| Graf_Westerholt | sorush20 sudo apt-get install kword | 15:30 |
| slsimic | and is mostly for Ubuntu and Gnome | 15:30 |
| sorush20 | Graf_Westerholt: I want the entire office packages.. etc | 15:32 |
| BluesKaj | I guess the open office transition to libreoffice is still in the dev stages | 15:32 |
| Graf_Westerholt | sorush20 sudo apt-get install koffice | 15:33 |
| BluesKaj | sorush20, libreoffice is the suite you want then | 15:33 |
| sorush20 | Graf_Westerholt: its not installed | 15:33 |
| Graf_Westerholt | sorush20, that comand installs it. | 15:34 |
| sorush20 | how do I get thekde menu to re arrange itself? | 15:35 |
| Graf_Westerholt | sorush20, that command arranges it. | 15:35 |
| sorush20 | Graf_Westerholt: I'm not a newbe ... the command doesn't do what you are suggesting.. it is only installing one package and on removal only removing one package .. sudo apt-get install koffice | 15:38 |
| BluesKaj | sorush20, are you looking for a Microsoft Office replacement ? | 15:39 |
| sorush20 | BluesKaj: no | 15:39 |
| BluesKaj | ok | 15:39 |
| BluesKaj | or equivlent on linux ? | 15:39 |
| sorush20 | BluesKaj: no , there is something wrong with my sources or my dpkg | 15:40 |
| Graf_Westerholt | [17:25:42] <sorush20> how do i install koffice? The command installs koffice. What you you want? | 15:40 |
| sorush20 | Graf_Westerholt: well I came here assuming something has changed from the previous versions of kubuntu apt-get install koffice , but since it didn't work then I'm here to see if this is a common prob or anything has changed. but since not then there is somehting worng at my end | 15:41 |
| BluesKaj | Graf_Westerholt, sometimes alternative suggestions if the person is new to linux and not real sure of what they need | 15:42 |
| Graf_Westerholt | sorush20, maybe you pastebin your output of the command. | 15:43 |
| BluesKaj | sorush20, check you kpackagekit or software sources and make sure the canonical partners are also enabled as well the universe and muliverse | 15:43 |
| sorush20 | I'm right now doing dpkg-reconfigure -a | 15:44 |
| sorush20 | take some time | 15:44 |
| sorush20 | nothing comes out on dpkg-reconfigure koffice | 15:46 |
| sorush20 | koffice is already the newest version. | 15:46 |
| sorush20 | that is the message from apt-get install koffice | 15:46 |
| Graf_Westerholt | sorush20, so run „kwrite“ in the terminal. | 15:47 |
| sorush20 | Graf_Westerholt: its working I'm seeing it | 15:48 |
| Graf_Westerholt | :) | 15:48 |
| sorush20 | kword I've tried | 15:48 |
| sorush20 | what version shoudl it be | 15:48 |
| Graf_Westerholt | sorush20, I think 2.3.3 | 15:49 |
| Graf_Westerholt | Says so here. | 15:49 |
| sorush20 | do you have kivio installed? | 15:50 |
| BluesKaj | so waht's the advantage of koffice over an office suite like libre office besides space on the drive ? | 15:50 |
| BluesKaj | better kde integration ? | 15:51 |
| * BluesKaj shrugs | 15:53 | |
| Graf_Westerholt | BluesKaj, everybody use the application he likes. :) | 15:54 |
| BluesKaj | Graf_Westerholt, that's not what I asked :).....but nevermind | 15:55 |
| sorush20 | apparently if you want to use kivio you have to stick with koffice 1.6 etc | 15:56 |
| sorush20 | http://www.koffice.org/download/ | 15:56 |
| sorush20 | is there anything like kivio anyone else here uses. | 15:57 |
| BluesKaj | odd sorush20 that your package manager doesn't contain koffice | 15:59 |
| sorush20 | BluesKaj: it does contain it and it does install it and I can use the programs but kivio is not part of it and the kdemenu > office is not showing any of the programs | 16:00 |
| BluesKaj | ok sorush20 | 16:01 |
| khindenburg | yofel: that LD is not set | 16:04 |
| khindenburg | it's possible I messed up my system somehow - I use this laptop to devel kde stuff | 16:05 |
| yofel | khindenburg: what does 'which qmake' say? | 16:05 |
| Graf_Westerholt | What is kivio? | 16:05 |
| Graf_Westerholt | !kivio | 16:05 |
| khindenburg | yofel: not installed | 16:05 |
| Graf_Westerholt | sorush20 sometimes you have to wait or restart KDE to have the programs in the menu. | 16:06 |
| kjartano | hello is there any one that can help me install java ? xD | 16:08 |
| Graf_Westerholt | !java | kjartano | 16:09 |
| ubottu | kjartano: To install a Java runtime on Ubuntu on 10.04 LTS and newer, see http://tinyurl.com/2ffg7cc - For the Sun Java products and browser plugin, search for the sun-java6- packages in the !partner repository on Lucid (which must be enabled), or !multiverse repository on older releases. | 16:09 |
| yofel | khindenburg: and 'which konsole' says? | 16:11 |
| khindenburg | yofel: 5436 2011-07-08 04:34 /usr/bin/konsole* | 16:12 |
| khindenburg | the konsolepart must work since I"m using yakuake | 16:13 |
| yofel | I'm out of ideas then, 32 or 64bit? | 16:14 |
| yofel | unless you have a Qt installation in /usr/local or so | 16:15 |
| yofel | but then it should've found qmake | 16:15 |
| khindenburg | yofel: 32 | 16:15 |
| khindenburg | yofel: that's OK - I likely did it myself - txs | 16:16 |
| tiago__ | how can i open an output from a previous command in gedit, without creating a new file | 16:19 |

| monocode | right :) | 16:36 |
| maciej | permission already : Owner: can read and write | 16:36 |
| maciej | group : forbidden, others: forbidden | 16:37 |
| monocode | maciej: this file is in your home directory I suppose not from other user, right ? | 16:37 |
| maciej | correct | 16:38 |
| maciej | perhaps its fixed, i changed to 'read only' ok, then set back to read and write' ok, now no dialog popup | 16:38 |

| monocode | anyway I'll try and see what people have found there and help with my own findings to solve the bug | 16:46 |
| yofel | there's a variable you can set to prevent the crashing, but updating the driver should help too | 16:47 |

| soultekkie | the interface is great... even gnome3 is getting kind of weird | 17:05 |
| soultekkie | gnome-shell resembles unity | 17:06 |
| BluesKaj | network manager on kde and gnome are only ood with the most common wifi chips like broadcom etc...anything out of the ordinary has probs | 17:06 |
| soultekkie | at least kde still is a desktop environment that looks pro | 17:06 |
| BluesKaj | err good | 17:06 |
| monocode | Anyone using TweetDeck (an Adobe AIR app) in Kubuntu? | 17:06 |
| soultekkie | with networkmanager 0.8.4 as soon as i plugged my Alfa AWUS036NH it went crazy in ubuntu 10.04 (was running 2.6.38-10 kernel) | 17:07 |

| soultekkie | anyone using sudoers with nopasswd on 11.04? | 17:25 |
| soultekkie | cant seem to configure it properly | 17:25 |
| BluesKaj | soultekkie, yes , are you editing with vi ? | 17:29 |
| soultekkie | with vim | 17:29 |
| soultekkie | i got *user* ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD:ALL | 17:31 |
| soultekkie | *user* is my username... not written like that... 5 letters, no caps | 17:31 |
| Graf_Westerholt | I hope you know what you are doing, soultekkie. | 17:31 |
| yofel | he does I guess, should work as long as you put that at the bottom of the file | 17:32 |
| soultekkie | in ubuntu 10.04 it was simpler... "user ALL=NOPASSWD: ALL" | 17:32 |
| yofel | otherwise %admin might override the permission setting | 17:32 |
| soultekkie | and that would set it | 17:32 |
| BluesKaj | yes , you also have to include /usr/bin/apt, /usr/bin/apt-get/ etc in the list plus what ever apps need the pw like packagemangers etc | 17:33 |
| soultekkie | ty yofel... that did it :P bottom of the file FTW | 17:34 |
| soultekkie | backwards compatibility is a good thing... beeing able to run gparted in kde is beautiful | 17:42 |
| soultekkie | dumb question... is nautilus able to run on kde? | 17:44 |
| monocode | why not... its just a file manager... that will bring on some gnomish dependencies | 17:47 |
| monocode | but if you really want... :) | 17:47 |
| soultekkie | just because dolphin copies a video/mp3 file before playing it | 17:47 |
| soultekkie | i actually prefer dolphin look and feel | 17:48 |
| soultekkie | ok... nautilus solved the *remote video play* issue.. and i'll use it for that alone :P | 17:57 |

| peace2_ | !alternate | Miika-- | 20:08 |
| ubottu | Miika--: The Alternate CD is a classical text-mode install CD. It supports a wider range of hardware than the !LiveCD, and can also be used as an upgrade CD. Look for the alternate checkbox on the Kubuntu download page - See also !minimal | 20:08 |
| Miika-- | peace2_: ok, I'll try that | 20:12 |
| Miika-- | thanks | 20:12 |

| Miika-- | Still hangs at the very beginning | 21:27 |
| Miika-- | Python_: I downloaded kubuntu alternate iso image, put it onto 4g usb drive with unetbootin and rebooted system... when I choose my usb drive from boot device menu, I get black screen that says something about SYSLINUX | 21:28 |
| Miika-- | And I checked md5 sum of that iso image, it's ok | 21:29 |
| Python_ | What's the "something about SYSLINUX" ? | 21:30 |

| ikonia | Miika--: lots of errors, what sort of thing ? | 21:44 |
| uofm49426 | not sure if its a rt8180 module problem or kubuntu but wouldnt connect with my passphras | 21:46 |
