[01:34] <ncfi1013_> blueskaj...i just installed aumix...will that work also?
[01:34] <BluesKaj> ncfi1013__, make sure your vol ctrls aren't muted , use the M ket to unmute or mute depending on your needs , and use the arrow keys to navigate turn the vol up or down
[01:35] <ncfi1013_> blueskaj...nothing is muted...
[01:41] <BluesKaj> I don't know about aumix . never used it ...ok ncfi1013_  open system settings>multimedia>phonon ...can you show us a screenshot in imagebin  , so we can figure out what we're working with

[01:58] <ncfi1013__> blueskaj...are you talking about both of the master volume controls?
[01:58] <ncfi1013__> blueskaj...if so they are both turned up to 100...
[01:59] <ncfi1013__> blueskaj...if not...will you be more specific?
[02:00] <BluesKaj> ncfi1013__, the intel option device at the top in phonon has to match the vlc audio , in vlc tools>preferences>audio ,choose alsa audio output
[02:03] <BluesKaj> then just below that on the device tab , make sure the device is the as the one in phonon ,,,run the cursor over the phonon intel and make sue the dev= the same as vlc device

[04:09] <shane2peru> I had to reboot since my .xsession-errors file had grown to over 15GB again
[06:15] <SimpleMinded> Anyone alive ?
[06:15] <szal> wrong question
[06:16] <SimpleMinded> Can someone help me :)
[06:17] <SimpleMinded> I am having problems installing a plugin..
[06:17] <szal> *sigh* why can't ppl be specific from the start..
[06:18] <SimpleMinded> simple-ccsm
[06:18] <SimpleMinded> ok im sorry
[06:18] <SimpleMinded> Depends: python-compizconfig (>= 0.8.2) but it is not going to be installed
[06:18] <SimpleMinded>                Depends: compizconfig-settings-manager (>= 0.8.2) but it is not going to be installed
[06:18] <SimpleMinded> E: Broken packages
[06:19] <SimpleMinded> i even auto removed but it didnt make a diffrence
[06:19] <SimpleMinded> sudo apt-get install -f && sudo apt-get autoremove
[06:21] <SimpleMinded> You there ?
[06:30] <szal> !info simple-ccsm
[06:31] <SimpleMinded> Also im new to NIX where do i enter the wget commands
[06:32] <SimpleMinded> For downloading in the terminal ?
[06:33] <szal> well, in the terminal? ;)
[06:33] <szal> other than that, I smell a packaging bug
[06:34] <szal> The following packages have unmet dependencies:
[06:34] <szal>   compiz-core: Breaks: simple-ccsm (< 0.9) but 0.8.2-0ubuntu1 is to be installed.
[06:35] <szal> plus, why would you want Compiz anyway?  KDE users don't need Compiz, as KWin does compositing on its own & not bad at that
[06:35] <SimpleMinded> configure: error: no acceptable C compiler found in $PATH
[06:36] <szal> sudo apt-get install build-essential
[06:38] <SimpleMinded> i wanted to cube my desktop
[06:41] <SimpleMinded> configure: error: cannot find setupterm or tgetent

[06:45] <SimpleMinded> so what do you suggest
[06:46] <szal> Konversation, Quassel, KVIrc, X-Chat, Irssi, Weechat...
[06:47] <SimpleMinded> i am ussing Quassel i cannot connect to multiple servers
[06:47] <szal> why not?
[06:48] <SimpleMinded> im not sure how
[06:48] <SimpleMinded> i tried to add them
[06:48] <SimpleMinded> and did...
[06:48] <SimpleMinded> it they wouldn't give me an option to swtich between them

[06:56] <vzduch> looks absolutely good here; set up IRCnet via preset & connected via right-click
[06:58] <redeyyez> love dragon player we just need to add a "couple" options.
[06:59] <vzduch> SimpleMinded: http://www.abload.de/img/20110719_fullscreenvigd.png
[07:02] <hanthana> what files I should translate in order to complete Kubuntu installer in my language?
[07:03] <szal> SimpleMinded: http://askubuntu.com/questions/37829/simple-ccsm-wont-install
[07:05] <unknown212> oerheks gj that i think wil do it how much room do i need im almost downloading a 10 gig file and have not much room
[07:05] <unknown212> i have about 2 gigs
[07:05] <unknown212> using df -h
[07:06] <unknown212> im going to move that ten gig file to a cd but is 2 gigs enough to upgrade
[07:06] <szal> to "a" CD? :o
[07:07] <unknown212> a couple dvds
[07:07] <unknown212> 60% upgraded
[07:08] <unknown212> talking about pushing the limits lol
[07:08] <szal> perhaps you shouldn't do everything at once
[07:08] <unknown212> lol
[07:08] <szal> or, rather, at the same time
[07:08] <unknown212> lol
[07:09] <szal> SimpleMinded: have you dropped dead now?
[07:09] <unknown212> ok im good only 989m
[07:09] <unknown212> to upgrade

[07:09] <unknown212> lol
[07:09] <unknown212> if i could
[07:09] <SimpleMinded> no im trying to install xchat
[07:10] <SimpleMinded> you say that like you would enjoy it
[07:10] <SimpleMinded> lol
[07:10] <szal> what's there to try? -> sudo apt-get install xchat
[07:10] <SimpleMinded> did it already
[07:10] <SimpleMinded> i can't get in to the file path
[07:10] <SimpleMinded> to make clean
[07:10] <SimpleMinded> and configure
[07:10] <Tm_T> SimpleMinded: you don't need to build it
[07:10] <szal> *sigh*
[07:10] <SimpleMinded> oo
[07:11] <SimpleMinded> ok sorry i am a linux noob
[07:11] <unknown212> who works for kubuntu here
[07:11] <Tm_T> SimpleMinded: _all_ you need to do is install it via package management (:
[07:11] <Tm_T> unknown212: why asking?
[07:11] <szal> SimpleMinded: rule #1: everything you'll ever want is in the package management; only if it isn't, it's time to look elsewhere
[07:11] <unknown212> because i want to know who actually works for kubuntu and who just helps to help
[07:12] <unknown212> i never can tell
[07:12] <Tm_T> unknown212: ah, this channel isn't serving for such polls
[07:12] <unknown212> polls?
[07:12] <Tm_T> might not be the right term, but it is irrelevant (:
[07:12] <szal> SimpleMinded: other than that, I demonstrated to you that it's very well possible and easy to overview connecting to multiple servers in Quassel (see screenshot posted by vzduch)
[07:13] <bryan_> ok im on xchat
[07:13] <unknown212> then what do you mean t
[07:13] <bryan_> :F
[07:13] <Tm_T> unknown212: let's continue on #kubuntu-offtopic as this channel is for support
[07:14] <unknown212> tm t check other channel
[07:18] <vzduch> huh?  did I break KSnapshot, or does it have a bug not snapping when set to 'Window under cursor' and trying to snap Quassel?  (Natty 32bit, KDE 4.6.5)
[07:19] <vzduch> it only takes empty snapshots (1360x1077 = larger than my screen)
[07:22] <vzduch> KSnapshot 64bit works as expected
[07:23] <unknown212> does anyone know anything about r
[07:23] <vzduch> http://www.abload.de/img/20110719_fullscreen21jse.png
[07:23] <vzduch> !anyone
[07:25] <unknown212> what is r
[07:27] <Tm_T> unknown212: what exactly you're asking?
[07:29] <unknown212> im asking what is the benefit of using R
[07:29] <unknown212> i want to use and saw a book
[07:30] <unknown212> thought it looked interesting
[07:31] <Tm_T> ah, you're asking on a wrong channel (:
[07:31] <unknown212> which channel
[07:33] <Tm_T> unknown212: unfortunately I don't know, you might try asking some programming-related channels in #defocus perhaps?
[07:36] <szal> *scratches head* it looks as if the 'Window under cursor' setting in KSnapshot doesn't work on 32bit; it tries to capture an area larger than the screen resulting in an image that contains only transparency; no problem on 64bit
[08:01] <JuJuBee_> Im trying to set up a server and having trouble getting dhcp3-server and nfs-kernel-server going... anyone able to lend a hand?
[09:47] <Octodigit> hi, is anyone able to use compiz w/ fglrx in natty?
[09:59] <JuJuBee_> I just intsalled natty and need a dhcp server.
[09:59] <JuJuBee_> tried dhcp3-server but can't seem to get it to start
[10:00] <ikonia> JuJuBee_: you need a valid config file for it to start
[10:05] <JuJuBee_> ikonia: I have one, I think, it is the one I was using before I installed 11.04
[10:16] <JuJuBee_> nm, I figured it out, dhcp3-server doesn't seem to work with nattty, need isc-dhcp-server
[10:28] <vietred> hi all, I've just switch to 'netbook' workspace type, It's kool, but I can't find anyway to shutdown/restart my box without command

[10:30] <Peace-> vietred: http://wstaw.org/m/2011/07/19/plasma-desktopvs1479.jpg
[10:30] <vietred> Peace-, now I can understand why my friend say this workspace type is 'search-oriented'
[10:31] <Peace-> well kde can be gnome3 oriented
[10:31] <Peace-> gnome2 oriented
[10:31] <Peace-> kde standard , netbook
[10:31] <Peace-> as you want
[10:32] <Peace-> it can be pretty similar with unity too
[10:32] <vietred> wow
[10:32] <Peace-> http://nowardev.wordpress.com/2011/05/27/unity-kde-another-test/
[10:34] <Peace-> vietred: http://wstaw.org/m/2011/05/27/UNity.gif

[10:37] <Peace-> xD
[10:37] <vietred> how about lxde? :))
[10:37] <Peace-> the last one is more like lxde
[10:38] <Peace-> than xfce i guess :)
[10:38] <Peace-> the point it's that if you configure well kde it can be as you want
[10:38] <vietred> it's more like xfce with lxde start button :D
[10:38] <Peace-> well maybe :)
[10:39] <Peace-> vietred: there is an application for panels
[10:39] <Peace-> you can just run and you should be enable to run mac unity gnome2 and another panels
[10:39] <Peace-> with a click
[10:40] <vietred> what is that app?
[10:40] <Peace-> the mine one
[10:40] <Peace-> xD

[10:41] <Peace-> vietred: http://nowardev.files.wordpress.com/2011/04/gnome-defaltt-panel-kde.gif
[10:41] <Peace-> vietred: read this http://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=67&t=94534
[10:42] <Peace-> note that 11.10 alpha2 you could have problems

[13:57] <Zwulf> hi
[13:57] <yofel> you can reserve 3 nicks on freenode for yourself, not more, so you can't do much against this...
[13:57] <yofel> note: yofel, yofel_ and kyofel are me :P
[13:57] <Zwulf> does anybody know if there is any packaged (deb) version of KDE 4.7 RC?
[13:58] <Zwulf> i already searched my ass off
[13:58] <yofel> Zwulf: only for oneiric, and even there some parts are missing (mainly gwenview and kate)
[13:58] <Zwulf> damn... thanks yofel
[13:59] <James147> Zwulf: normally gets announced at http://www.kubuntu.org/news when/if if becomes available for released version
[14:00] <Zwulf> sure, i know, but sometimes there are some not official ppas of single persons...
[14:02] <Zwulf> anyway... one week is bearable ;)
[14:02] <BluesKaj_> Hello, BluesKaj loves everybody la la la
[14:03] <Pici> BluesKaj_: Please stop.
[14:03] <BluesKaj_> = =''
[14:04] <BluesKaj_> Alright
[14:19] <BluesKaj> hehe .. , another one for the ignore list
[15:27] <dreamon> Kann mir jemand sagen, wer die Fensteranordnung bei KDE vornimmt? Wenn ich ein Prg starte, werden die bestehenden Fenster verkleinert oder Halbiert, sprich automatisch angeordnet. Das hätte ich gerne abgeschaltet
[15:30] <darune> Hi Everyone. I'm running 11.04 and applied the recent qt update. Kmail and Kopete will not work properly anymore. Kopete will not sign in to any account, and Kmail will not open the main window. Accessing kmail from the message tray will bring up a blank window with a squished (single row) imap folder list. Does anyone have this problem or know how I could rollback qt?
[15:31] <Guest92819> hello, sry my english is very bad, but i try it. i have a netbook and with kubuntu he dont find the wifi card. in windxxx is all ok
[15:33] <darune> Do you know what kind of wifi card you have? Chances are you need to go to k->applications->system->additional drivers and activate a proprietary driver.
[15:34] <Guest92819> yes. its a intel wireless n130
[15:34] <Guest92819> in additional drivers is empty, i think that he dont know that the card is inside
[15:36] <darune> can you do an lspci and paste the "wireless adapter" line here?
[15:36] <darune> (I'm not a kubuntu expert, but I'll see what I can do to help)
[15:36] <Guest92819> if i open the additional-drivers the field is empty
[15:37] <James147> Guest92819: That just means there are no propriety drivers for any of the detected hardware
[15:38] <darune> Guest92819: can you open a konsole, and run "lspci" then paste the line for the wireless card here?
[15:39] <James147> ^^ or better yet "lspci | grep -i network"
[15:40] <Guest92819> sry dc
[15:46] <Zwulf> hm... find da nirgendwo ne Einstellung für, dreamon... weder bei Fensterregeln, noch Arbeitsflächen-Effekten... ist das schon seit der Install der Fall oder hast Du Einstellungen verändert?
[15:48] <dreamon> Zwulf, Das war am Anfang nicht gewesen. Ich hab schon die Systemeinstellungen angebpsst, aber ich bin mir keiner Schuld bewußt ;)
[15:48] <Zwulf> sieh mal bei Fensterverhalten -> Fensterregeln nach, dreamon... walls da was steht -> löschen (außer Aktivierungsübernahme...)
[15:49] <BluesKaj> !de
[15:50] <Zwulf> mach mal folgendes: sudo apt-get install qtcurve, dann bei Erscheinungsbild von A. -> Stil -> Stil der Bedienelemente QtCurve auswählen
[15:50] <Zwulf> sorry
[15:51] <BluesKaj> I know it's not busy in here but using a different language can give the wrong impression :)
[15:51] <Zwulf> k, sorry, i'll continue with englisch ;)
[15:52] <BluesKaj> bitte
[15:53] <dreamon> BluesKaj, Sry. Tried in #kubuntu-de without.. but lets go on in english ;)
[15:54] <dreamon> Zwulf, installed qtcurve .. what do you mean "Erscheinungsbild von A. (A.?)"
[15:54] <Zwulf> Anwendungen
[15:55] <Zwulf> in the upper middle of system settings
[15:55] <dreamon> Zwulf, Ok. Erscheinungsbild v. A. -> Stil der Bedienelemete -> is now QtCurve.. ok?
[15:57] <Zwulf> do you get the behaviour still? if so, change also Erscheinungsbild der Arbeitsfläche -> Fensterdekorationen to qtcurve
[15:58] <Zwulf> just an idea... don't know if it works
[16:01] <dreamon> Still same problem.. goning on.. Zwulf your right here i canged geht " Erscheinungsbild der Arbeitsfläche" .. do you think this might be the main reason?
[16:02] <dreamon> I will do like you said
[16:03] <dreamon> Zwulf, Oh sorry didnt worked.
[16:03] <dreamon> By clicking on pidgin window goes fullscreen.. or halfed the Firefox windows.. still same
[16:04] <dreamon> I didnt liked the orange desing.

[18:47] <Guest38204> hola
[18:49] <BarkingFish> Evening all.  I'm looking to migrate to ubuntu on my laptop, and I need kde, since I do a little work on their stuff occasionally.  Is kubuntu a seperate distro with kde, or do you provide kde for ubuntu?
[18:51] <Pici> BarkingFish: Kubuntu uses the same package respostories as Ubuntu does, and its safe to have both desktop environments installed side by side.
[18:51] <BarkingFish> Pici, I'd prefer kde only if that's at all possible, I don't get on well with gnome.
[18:52] <BarkingFish> I'm totally new to ubuntu having been on mandriva for about the last 9 to 10 years
[18:52] <Pici> BarkingFish: Then I don't understand your question.  Kubuntu is just Ubuntu with KDE instead of GNOME.
[18:52] <BarkingFish> oh right :)
[18:52] <Pici> And a set of different default applications, but the core is still the same.
[18:53] <BarkingFish> My question was asking whether kubuntu was seperate to ubuntu, as a distro, or whether you did the kde packages for ubuntu :)
[18:53] <BarkingFish> This is how clueless I am when it comes to other distributions
[18:53] <BluesKaj> BarkingFish, kubuntu is ubuntu without gnome , it uses kde in it's placa nad also has a lot of apps dev'd for it , but all apps run on the various versions of ubuntu of the same release number/name
[18:54] <BarkingFish> ok, so do I need a kubuntu disk, as opposed to a normal ubuntu one?
[18:54] <BarkingFish> all I have now is a regular DVD ISO of ubuntu 11.04
[18:55] <BluesKaj> BarkingFish, for kubuntu yes .it's strictly kde
[18:55] <BarkingFish> ok, great, I'll go get the right iso, burn it off and start the show :)
[18:55] <BarkingFish> It's going to be fun changing distributions, this is a whole new ball game.
[18:56] <BluesKaj> BarkingFish, think you'll enjoy it , the package management is superior to most other distros
[18:58] <BarkingFish> yeah, iirc you use a debian base, .deb - I've been on a solitary rpm distribution for ages, and it's falling apart.  Time for a change :)
[18:58] <BluesKaj> :)
[18:59] <BarkingFish> I'll let you know btw that one of your download links isn't working on the kubuntu download page
[19:00] <BarkingFish> I clicked it and it gave me an ftp error 550 - can't change directory
[19:00] <BarkingFish> http://www.mirrorservice.org/sites/cdimage.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/releases/11.04/release/kubuntu-11.04-dvd-i386.iso
[19:00] <szal> is the DVD an official medium anyway?
[19:01] <BarkingFish> it's available on the download page, so I'd assume so
[19:01] <BluesKaj> http://www.kubuntu.org/
[19:01]  * szal has never seen a DVD on his favourite mirror
[19:01] <BarkingFish> yep, the link I'm clicking is the first one in the dvd block for the 32 bit version on this page: http://www.kubuntu.org/getkubuntu/download#download-block
[19:02] <BarkingFish> just comes back as can't change directory to /sites/... - no such file or directory
[19:05] <szal> BarkingFish: quoting from the download page -> "Do not be confused, even though DVDs can hold far more data than the typical Kubuntu CD, the main benefit of the DVD downloads is to get access to all of the available language packs. Most people will be fine with the standard CD installer."
[19:05] <BarkingFish> yes, that's precisely why I'm getting the DVD, because I need multilingual support.
[19:06] <BarkingFish> I'm teaching a couple of my friends locally how to use linux, and they don't have a great command of readable english. They can speak it well, but I need to be able to localise the system while I'm teaching them
[19:09] <BluesKaj> BarkingFish, do have a torrent client installed?
[19:09] <BluesKaj> do you
[19:13] <Daskreech> BluesKaj: I think that is a roundrobin link
[19:17] <BluesKaj> hi Daskreech a roundrobin link ?
[19:17] <Daskreech> BluesKaj: There are a number of servers with the same file and when you click on the link it goes to the next server in the list so that one doesn't get overwhelmed
[19:18] <Daskreech> However if someone removes the file then "randomly" someone will click on the link and 404 out
[19:22] <BluesKaj> Daskreech, ok thanks ...interesting whois on barkinf*sh , his whois shows him as @wikinews/
[19:23] <Daskreech> Probably a maintainer?
[19:23] <BluesKaj> yeah , and no trace of course
[19:24] <Pici> BluesKaj: wikimedia's channels are on freenode.
[19:25] <Samo502> What's the most convenient way to restore the windows MBR should I ever want to?
[19:25] <BluesKaj> Pici, his ISP IP is masked somehow
[19:26] <Daskreech> Samo502: have a windows CD
[19:26] <BluesKaj> Samo502, easyBCD , boot disk
[19:26] <Samo502> Daskreech: does version matter? (windows vista for windows 7, etc)
[19:27] <BluesKaj> Samo502, but it will probly erase grub
[19:27] <snooffy> Hi guys.. is here anyone experienced with SB audigy 4 and 5.1 sound on Kubuntu 11.04 as I can't get it working...
[19:27] <Samo502> BluesKaj: well the reasoning is i have Ubuntu 11.04 on my other computer, and I do enjoy using linux quite a bit.
[19:28] <Daskreech> Samo502: Windows 7 has a different Boatloader from Windows Vista which has a different one from Windows XP
[19:28] <Samo502> BluesKaj: but sometimes i'd also like to free up the space allocated for it to use for other things, and that can't be done until the windows MBR is restored
[19:28] <Daskreech> Samo502: That's not true but ... ok
[19:29] <Samo502> i've always heard if you erase your linux partition first you could majorly damage things
[19:29] <Daskreech> possibly but it's nothing that a live CD can't fix in a short time
[19:29] <Samo502> though, i've never actually experimented with it
[19:29] <Samo502> true that a livecd could restore grub
[19:30] <Samo502> i think it'd be nice to see an application based method to restore the MBR if needed
[19:31] <Daskreech> Samo502: For windows that's never a consideration
[19:31] <Samo502> it could be done through a livecd, however
[19:31] <yofel> from a linux side of view, 'grub-install' is a valid application based method, unless you want a GUI for it
[19:32] <Daskreech> Though Windows 7 does have a "kinda" app for that
[19:32] <Samo502> my main reason for wondering is because this computer didn't come with a backup disk of the OS or drivers
[19:33] <Samo502> so short of pirating one or spending the money on a disk i won't really use, you get it
[19:33] <BluesKaj> Samo502, i successfully restored the mbr on W7 without losing grub, but I think I was lucky cuz I've heard easyBCD is not so easy
[19:33] <Samo502> hmm
[19:34] <Samo502> i do rather like grub, i will admit
[19:34] <Samo502> and i wouldn't mind keeping it over the traditional MBR
[19:34] <BluesKaj> grub rocks
[19:34] <Samo502> it's just so flexible
[19:35] <Samo502> windows' MBR is probably about as flexible as a rock
[19:35] <BluesKaj> you can add windoes chainloader + , to grub.cfg
[19:36] <BluesKaj> !chainloader
[19:36] <BluesKaj> :)
[19:36] <Samo502> simply the main goals are if i should decide to free up space, as long as most of it is free i don't mind sparing a few MB for grub
[19:36] <BluesKaj> !mbr
[19:37] <Samo502> (of course MB may be a bit much for a bootloader, never hurts to have extra)
[19:39] <AimOn__> #ilmenau
[19:41] <BluesKaj> there are those who dual boot , but due to job related political reasons , some like to have windows as the default boot OS , and prefer to have no time out ...using the shift key when linux is needed or wanted
[20:43] <salva> ciao
[21:12] <aussie114_> hello, could any please tell how to go about setting up back/forward navigation through folders with the back and forward buttons on a mouse, they work with in my browser  and I had a look through the shortcut settings but I can only assign a keyboard combination with them.

[22:44] <CaptWho> i have a build of eeebuntu that i want to install, but the iso image that i have is bigger than 700mg.  is there a way to break the iso into two disks?
[22:48] <OerHeks> CaptWho, no, use a USB stick 1 Gb
[23:18] <CaptWho> OerHeks: would a sd card do?
[23:20] <OerHeks> CaptWho, sure
[23:20] <OerHeks> i run FreeNas from a 256 mb sdcard
[23:25] <CaptWho> OerJeks:i tried to install the iso on the SD, but none of the software that i have would let me do that and i'm not sure how to get ubuntu to boot off the card.  do you know of any links?
[23:26] <CaptWho> OerHeks:  <<oops>>
[23:26] <OerHeks> unetbootin could > http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/
[23:26] <CaptWho> OerHeks:  awesome, thanks
[23:29] <tbluhp> Hi I am in need of some help I am trying to update packages but I am getting problem I am posting a link to a picture of what the error is http://www.box.net/shared/xutg4ysgua8rdv5n3lqc
[23:31] <OerHeks> tbluhp, oke, follow the suggestion: run 'dpkg -- configure -a' in terminal to fix it.
[23:31] <tbluhp> ok
[23:32] <drbobb> is there an audio equalizer in KDE?
[23:33] <OerHeks> drbobb:  in amarok there is.
[23:33] <drbobb> OerHeks: no, I mean at the system level - pulseaudio, or whatever
[23:34] <drbobb> never mind, I see the player I'm using has its own equalizer too
[23:38] <OerHeks> oke :-) i did not find any systemwide equaliser.
[23:39] <drbobb> there must be some more advanced config tools for pulseaudio somewhere, though
