| cjae | I am positive that there is some issue in kubuntu, not sure about ubuntu, with writing files to vfat mem sticks. | 01:06 |
| cjae | whether its just kde or dolphin I am not sure or anything else for that matter. Thank god I have a multi-drive card reader with a light on it, since kde says it sone writing to the stick, the light is still flashing indicating there is still operations taking place | 01:09 |

| ghittsum | I'm using kubuntu 11.04. Why can't I change the color of the font in konsole from blue on black to something I can see when I pico edit an html file. Please don't make fun of me because I'm still using pico. I like pico. I grew up on pico. | 03:01 |
| ghittsum | I'll try to hang in the channel a couple of days and just keep googling until I get lucky. | 03:04 |
| e_t_ | ghittsum: right click on the console window, click Configure Current Profile, go to the Appearance tab. You can change the color scheme there. | 03:07 |
| ghittsum | I have tried that | 03:07 |
| ghittsum | I'll go in and change every color to white | 03:08 |
| ghittsum | maybe red = blue and thats why it's not working. | 03:08 |
| ghittsum | oh, ok...I see what you're saying. | 03:09 |
| ghittsum | right clicking is the key | 03:09 |
| e_t_ | You can try the different preset themes, too. | 03:09 |
| ghittsum | going to settings didn't seem to accomplish what I wanted | 03:09 |
| ghittsum | yeah, I went to settings, edited my profile, changed schemes...and wasn't getting anything to work beyond the shell command line | 03:10 |

This may take some time.".. I'd like to pass the -C option (progress bars) for fsck on boot | 13:25 |
| BluesKaj | szal, not sure , but try removing 'quiet ' | 13:34 |

| BluesKaj | yeah , so was I ..you can make booting into kubuntu more verbose' | 13:39 |
| BluesKaj | let the fsck run or press 's' for skip , but until you let it run it's course that fsck will be there everytime | 13:40 |

| senorpedro | i upgraded to 11.04. now everytime i load a page in chromium that uses flash, the whole screen 'flickers', meaning for 1/2 seconds its completely dark. this is very annoying. how can i fix that? | 15:34 |
| senorpedro | that wasnt before with 10.04 | 15:35 |
| senorpedro | i'm using the current nvidia driver | 15:36 |
| Ddpbf | senorpedro: wich flash you have installed | 15:37 |
| Ddpbf | and how ff and rekonq handle flash content | 15:37 |
| senorpedro | 10.3.181.34ubuntu0.11.04.1 | 15:38 |
| Ddpbf | flashplugin installer | 15:39 |
| senorpedro | yes | 15:39 |
| Ddpbf | or flush plugin non free? | 15:39 |
| Ddpbf | 64 or 32 bit? | 15:39 |
| senorpedro | flashplugin installer | 15:39 |
| senorpedro | 32 | 15:39 |
| Ddpbf | huh | 15:39 |
| senorpedro | ff: no flickering | 15:39 |
| * Ddpbf is out of ideas then :( | 15:40 | |
| senorpedro | in rekonq also no flickering, but this browser seems broken | 15:40 |
| Ddpbf | senorpedro: do you use chromium daily or from regular repos | 15:41 |
| senorpedro | regular repos | 15:41 |
| Ddpbf | then i would suggest you to switch to ppa | 15:42 |
| Ddpbf | i m using chromium daily and it works gud | 15:42 |
| Ddpbf | *good | 15:42 |
| senorpedro | ok i'll try that | 15:42 |

| Ddpbf | you could allways purge ppa if you are not staisfied | 15:43 |
| senorpedro | installed chromium from ppa, still flickering... | 15:46 |
| Ddpbf | wich gpu senorpedro | 15:48 |

| Ddpbf | lscpi -knn | grep -i video | 15:48 |
| BluesKaj | senorpedro, use the recommended driver nvidia-current ...that's what I use , I have the same card | 15:52 |
| senorpedro | BluesKaj, i'm using that driver | 15:52 |
| Ddpbf | BluesKaj: he use it | 15:52 |

| senorpedro | well loading/reloading a flash-using webpage in chromium causes flicker | 15:58 |
| BluesKaj | default flash , senorpedro ? | 15:58 |

| senorpedro | also: when a page that uses flash has the focus, and i press ctrl-t to open a new browser tab, the browser is moved in the background and all the other open windows are placed over it.... | 16:00 |
| BluesKaj | doesn't seem to be a flash issue then, senorpedro..rendering in chromium maybe | 16:04 |
| senorpedro | how can i fix that? | 16:04 |
| BluesKaj | default chromium or daily builds , senorpedro ? | 16:05 |
| senorpedro | daily builds | 16:05 |
| senorpedro | but i had default before, same issue | 16:05 |
| BluesKaj | before when? | 16:06 |

| BluesKaj | IamTrying, you're running Fedora /gnome ...go ask in #fedora | 16:53 |
| IamTrying | BluesKaj, i am actually looking for linux answer. In linux how do you say the headphone and mic? /dev/dsp or /dev/mic1 or /dev/headphone1 or /dev/pci | 16:54 |
| BluesKaj | should have spotted that right off the bat ...a bit slow on the uptake | 16:54 |
| IamTrying | Because we are all linux. we speak same cli. | 16:55 |
| IamTrying | alsamixer does not worked for me. | 16:55 |
| BluesKaj | use F5 in alsamixer to see the headphone ctrls | 16:55 |

| James147 | IamTrying: yes but the details can change between distros... its best to ask on your distros channel.. | 16:55 |
| Pici | or in ##linux | 16:56 |
| IamTrying | szal, James147 i have kubuntu in another pc, here i am using fedora as base. | 16:56 |
| Pici | IamTrying: Okay? I have windows on a computer, but I'm not going to ask in ##Windows about my Ubuntu problems. | 16:56 |
| szal | IamTrying: that would apply if you had the exact same problem on the other box, and then error msgs or screenshots from Fedora won't help | 16:56 |
| IamTrying | BluesKaj, alsamixer > F5 shows still no /dev/xyz.... | 16:57 |
| Pici | IamTrying: Fedora support is offtopic here. period. | 16:57 |
| IamTrying | BluesKaj, here is F5 http://i.imgur.com/UNCDa.png | 16:57 |
| BluesKaj | alsamixer is pretty universal, but he just doesn't get it ...not good at following suggestions ...probly been kicked from #fedora with that attitude | 16:57 |

| Macer | hello. i don't know why but for some reason my usb ports stopped working. at first i thought maybe the controller died out but i put a pci 2.0 card i had and they still don't work on the card even though i can see the card being detected in dmest | 19:55 |
| Macer | does anybody have any ideas? | 19:55 |
| Macer | /var/log/messages is also not detecting devices being plugged into the controller | 19:56 |
| Macer | i tried all types of devices. i have no idea what happened but all of a sudden usb just stopped working | 19:56 |
| Macer | ugh. let me boot onto the windows drive and see if it works tere | 20:02 |
| Macer | this is so lame | 20:02 |
| cher | What's the best way to check if a pckg is installed? Is "apt-cache policy pckg-name" good? Is there a better way? | 20:06 |
| cher | (Ideal would be something that sets $?, apt-cache doesn't.) | 20:06 |
| BluesKaj | or look in the package manager , cher | 20:07 |
| cher | Isn't apt-cache policy the look in the package manager? Or what do you mean? | 20:08 |
| BluesKaj | cher, if you don't have the exact name correct in the policy command , it won't show | 20:09 |
| cher | I have the correct name. I can do apt-cache policy pckg-name | grep "Installed: pckg-name" to get $? set properly, but I'd like a solution which doesn't involve a pipe. | 20:10 |
| cher | My use case is a java program that uses javax.smartcardio. For that to work, pcscd has to be running as root, and libpcsclite-dev has to be installed. I want to check if these conditions are met, and if not, offer the user an interface to establish these preconditions. | 20:11 |
| danni_ | how do i install skype for kubuntu | 20:17 |
| e_t_ | danni_: sudo apt-get install skype | 20:17 |
| cher | e_t_: I thought that, too, but I tried before I wanted to post, and actually for 11.04, sudo apt-get install skype will not do. | 20:18 |
| cher | danni_: http://www.kubuntuguide.info/index.php/Natty#Skype contains information on how to install Skype on kubuntu 11.04. | 20:20 |
| BluesKaj | skype is best installe from the skype site , choose the linux/ubuntu version , danni_ | 20:21 |
| danni_ | does not open with package manager | 20:22 |
| BluesKaj | cher you lost me on that last post about java, but both pcscd and libpcsclite-dev are available in the repos if you have all of them enabled including other software | 20:25 |
| cher | BluesKaj: I know, I got them installed myself easily. I'm a software author, my piece of software shall check if libpcsclite-dev is installed, so I currently run apt-cache policy libpcsclite-dev from Java and parse its output. | 20:27 |
| cher | But instead of parsing its output, I'd like to get something that simply indicates with the return code ($? in bash terms) whether or not a pckg is installed. | 20:27 |
| * BluesKaj nods , but has no idea , unless apt-cache search might show someting | 20:30 | |
| mr-rich | Correct me if I'm wrong, but kubuntu & ubuntu share the same core, yes? | 20:30 |
| areichman | mr-rich: that's correct | 20:32 |
| BluesKaj | mr-rich, the desktops and apps are different but will run on each other's installs | 20:34 |
| mr-rich | BluesKaj: so, say I plug in a USB device, it should work the same on both, correct? | 20:35 |
| BluesKaj | well, mr-rich that's theory , in practice it's more complicated with Hardware, unfortunately | 20:36 |
| BluesKaj | i spoke about apps and desktops btw , not hardware | 20:37 |
| mr-rich | BluesKaj: I have an iPhone. On the laptop (running ubuntu), I can see all of the files and play music.. on the desktop (kubuntu), all I can get to is the camera ... | 20:38 |
| mr-rich | BluesKaj: both running 11.04 | 20:38 |
| mr-rich | BluesKaj: what would the difference be? | 20:39 |
| BluesKaj | ubuntu interfaces are more suited to your phone ...unfortunately kde lags in HW dev with mobile devices | 20:43 |
| BluesKaj | mr-rich, ^ | 20:43 |
| D-coy | m4v, ping | 20:52 |

| andrewx | Does anyone know how to clear the /media cache? When U change dvd's it wants to remember previous contents! its annoying! | 21:32 |
| PandaBoy | Does anyone know the official Ubuntu IRC channel? | 21:40 |
| e_t_ | PandaBoy: #ubuntu | 21:42 |
| PandaBoy | e_t_: that doesn't work | 21:43 |
| e_t_ | Really? I've got that channel open right now. | 21:44 |
| lcb | PandaBoy: type /join #ubuntu | 21:44 |
| lcb | np, i get paid by tips | 21:46 |
| PandaBoy | @lcb that only created a new channel (@ubuntu) with only me on... | 21:46 |
| PandaBoy | Odd | 21:46 |
| szal | PandaBoy: clean your glasses ;) | 21:47 |
| lcb | PandaBoy: copy and past this to the box where you are writing in /join #ubuntu | 21:47 |
| lcb | make sure # is # and not € or $ | 21:47 |
| lcb | :P | 21:48 |
| lcb | PandaBoy: by the way, write it here, not somewhere else. probably you have more than 1 network open | 21:48 |
| szal | lcb: he just joined over there the 3rd time ;) | 21:50 |
| lcb | :) | 21:50 |
| PandaBoy | Okay, it's working now. Except when I do it with F7 (Quick Connect). | 21:50 |
| andrewx | no one understands how to clear /media cache? | 21:50 |
| lcb | wow PandaBoy. Quassel? | 21:51 |
| lcb | andrewx: i'm not sure about /media specifically. unmounting the device?!... | 21:52 |
| andrewx | 'releasing' the disc should do it; it doesn't | 21:53 |
| lcb | yeap | 21:53 |
| lcb | it should indeed | 21:53 |
| andrewx | its actually remembering directories, etc | 21:53 |
| lcb | probably that device is not properly configured, think about that option... | 21:54 |
| andrewx | theres always a trick in terminal ;-) | 21:54 |
| andrewx | just need to find it! | 21:55 |
| lcb | kill it kill it | 21:55 |
| andrewx | a reset command for /media, media-devices? | 21:55 |
| lcb | andrewx: hmmm don't know anything else besides turning off the fuse switch | 21:56 |
| lcb | j/k | 21:56 |
| lcb | andrewx: try #ubuntu to tweak what's going on in there. maybe someone will help doing that. | 21:57 |
| andrewx | okie | 21:59 |
| lcb | that's more a 11.04 specific matter than #kubuntu, i believe. and who knows, you have a bug in there. | 21:59 |

| LINKSWORD2 | Hey guys, can I configure KMail to receive my Hotmail email account? | 23:37 |
| OerHeks | LINKSWORD2, yes, only if hotmail supports pop3 or smtp | 23:39 |
| LINKSWORD2 | I may need help with that... >.> | 23:45 |
| OerHeks | i cant help you with that, i don't use hotmail | 23:48 |
| e_t_ | LINKSWORD2: Hotmail uses POP3. The server names are pop3.live.com and smtp.live.com. You can get the details from Hotmail's online help. | 23:50 |
| OerHeks | Gmail needs pop3 enabled in preferences, maybe same issue with hotmail/live ? | 23:53 |
