| ssfdre38 | sinclair_, the one that is on the Kubuntu-desktop download | 08:28 |
| sinclair_ | ssfdre38: in Dolphin or something, check "about KDE", as for kubuntu I assume 11.04 | 08:29 |
| sinclair_ | or in Quassel... | 08:29 |
| valorie | http://www.kubuntu.org/news/kde-4.7 | 08:29 |
| valorie | ssfdre38: ^^^ | 08:30 |
| valorie | simple to do, and it's very nice | 08:30 |
| * valorie did it last night | 08:30 | |
| ssfdre38 | lol cool | 08:30 |
| sinclair_ | valorie: what it does NOT say is that you must do dist-upgrade or fullupgrade | 08:30 |
| Coded1 | whats the best way to do a dist-upgrade? | 08:31 |
| ssfdre38 | it should be fine for ubuntu with KDE on it | 08:31 |
| sinclair_ | ssfdre38: follow instructions for adding ppa - then use command line to do apt-get dist-upgrade | 08:31 |
| Coded1 | :) | 08:31 |
| coder2 | Hello. Please help me with my digital camera. | 08:32 |
| ssfdre38 | you point to something and take a photo and ta da your done | 08:33 |
| sinclair_ | coder2: what is the problem more specific? | 08:33 |
| coder2 | I cannot transfer photos from my camera anymore. digikam claims that it cannot connect to the camera. gphoto2 says that device is already in use. f-spot reports about IO Error | 08:34 |
| sinclair_ | coder2: did you try it on another computer so you know it is not the camera? | 08:34 |
| beginner | I have a question to kmail2... can I copy all my mails from kmail1 (.kde/share/apps/mail) to .local/share/.local-mail.directory? and start the sync in akonadi again? | 08:34 |
| beginner | I have tried this... so the message count is correct but kmail2 does not show any messages... only the loading icon is visible... so I am not sure if that works what I want to do :-) | 08:34 |
| sinclair_ | ssfdre38: should be sudo apt-get dist-upgrade of course... | 08:35 |
| coder2 | sinclair_: I've tried from windows sessiion. It worls. | 08:35 |
| ssfdre38 | yeea | 08:35 |
| sinclair_ | coder2: done any update, eg to KDE 4.7, between it working and not? | 08:35 |
| coder2 | sinclair_: KDE hasn't been updated, but there were some kernel and library updates. | 08:37 |
| coder2 | My KDE version is 4.4.4.5 | 08:38 |
| sinclair_ | coder2: is there a setting in the camera for "mode", eg as a disk or other methods? Have no camera here so can't remember optios | 08:38 |
| sinclair_ | if so try different ones | 08:38 |
| coder2 | sinclair_: Unfortunately only one mode available: device is being detected as a digital camera (Canon A5xx). | 08:39 |
| sinclair_ | coder2: am afraid I don't know then, was hoping that might be it | 08:40 |
| sinclair_ | can not see why kernel update etc should botch syncing camera | 08:41 |
| coder2 | sinclair_: It is odd, but f-spot is even able to display list of photos with thumbnails from the camera memory, but failed to import them. | 08:41 |
| sinclair_ | coder2: maybe try a live usb or live CD to see if your install is OK or not? | 08:41 |
| valorie | coder2: that sounds like a permission problem | 08:42 |
| sinclair_ | preferrably live usb with memory for "saving"? | 08:42 |
| sinclair_ | persistence it is called | 08:42 |
| sinclair_ | valorie could be very right | 08:42 |
| coder2 | valorie: how to check those permissions? | 08:42 |
| valorie | dolphin can do that for you | 08:43 |
| coder2 | valorie: The camera is not in "disk mode" | 08:44 |
| valorie | I always use dolphin for copying or moving photos | 08:44 |
| valorie | so dolphin can't see it? | 08:44 |
| beginner | #kubuntu-de | 08:44 |
| coder2 | nope | 08:44 |
| valorie | boo | 08:44 |
| coder2 | I think something (auto-mounter?) is locking the camera and it prevents applications accessing it. | 08:46 |
| coder2 | That auto-mounter is quite stupid thing, it even prevents k3b from erasing non-empty RW-DVDs | 08:48 |
| coder27 | sinclair_: I see something suspicious in my "home" directory: ".gvfs" folder is displayed in red color with "?" in mc and the permissions is drx instead of drwx. And I cannot do chmod u+w | 09:03 |
| coder27 | I believe it is connected with the camera problem | 09:04 |
| coder27 | How to fix the .gvfs folder ? | 09:04 |
| sinclair_ | coder27: red color should be an ownership problem I think | 09:04 |
| coder27 | sinclair_: Do you know how to fix it? Even as root I cannot access this folder. | 09:05 |
| sinclair_ | coder27: if you check properties by right-clicking you can see what is owner and group, what are they? | 09:06 |
| coder27 | sinclair: under my login it displays my ownership and dr------- permissions, and under root it displays root:root and --------- as access rigts | 09:07 |
| soee | guys, i would like to create translation for one plasmoid, as i can see there is file with .qm extension - how should i edit this ? | 09:08 |
| sinclair_ | coder27: it sounds messy alright.. try changing ownership/group to your user and then set rwx rights | 09:10 |
| coder27 | sinclair_: chmod does nothing. No errors and no effect. The same with chown | 09:11 |
| coder27 | how to force fsck? | 09:12 |
| valorie | coder27: is your user in the correct groups, such as sudoer? | 09:12 |
| coder27 | valorie: yes | 09:12 |
| sinclair_ | coder27: have no idea.. you might have to use knoppix or something to rm the directory | 09:12 |
| coder27 | sinclair_: ... and then, recreate it? | 09:13 |
| sinclair_ | coder27: it "should" recreate itself via the app or the camera connection | 09:13 |
| sinclair_ | just love that expression.. "should" | 09:14 |
| coder27 | sinclair_: excuse me, English is not my native language. | 09:14 |
| sinclair_ | coder27: not a problem | 09:15 |
| sinclair_ | for fsck force check via google, I have done it but can not remember how | 09:15 |

| MK` | I want from Ubuntu (gnome) 10.10 to 11.04 and it broke a great deal of things for me, which I can tolerate but I don't want to thrust that onto someone else | 09:31 |
| MK` | I went* | 09:31 |
| Tm_T | MK`: it usually is supposed to be rather smooth | 09:31 |
| Tm_T | MK`: it all depends on if there is used sources outside of ubuntu's official repositories for installing any packages | 09:32 |
| Tm_T | and other variables that aren't up to ubuntu directly | 09:32 |
| MK` | Well the things that broke were like, plymouth and gnome-panel X) | 09:32 |

| Incarus6 | sinclair_, under right click on the panel > settings is a option called "Maximal amout of rows" or similar (I had to translate it). I think the default option is now 2. By changing it back to 1 this should be 'fixed' ;) or disable "Force rowsettings" (also translated). | 13:11 |
| sinclair_ | incarus6: should but does not - for me at least | 13:12 |
| Incarus6 | try to change both settings I mentioned. That force-thing worked for me | 13:12 |

| Incarus6 | I would fix that by myself if I would know how to read those backtraces | 13:40 |
| Incarus6 | BluesKaj, nope, never used dropbox | 13:41 |
| Incarus6 | That blue desktop icon is VirtualBox | 13:41 |
| BluesKaj | ok Incarus6 , my mistake | 13:42 |

| Linkmaster | Do you mind translating those for me? | 15:24 |
| ppq | Linkmaster: sure, sorry. in the first screenshot it says "an application crashed", in the second "you don't have permissions for this problem report" | 15:25 |
| ppq | excuse my english | 15:25 |
| Linkmaster | Your english is fine, I didn't know until I saw the screenshots | 15:27 |
| Linkmaster | Hm, its kind of strange though..have you launched anything like 'sudo application' from the terminal? | 15:27 |
| ppq | Linkmaster: no, it happens right after logging in using KDM. i don't do anything before this pops up | 15:28 |
| Linkmaster | I meant 'have you' as in the past. Though also, when did this start happening? | 15:28 |
| ppq | ah, i see. i never started a GUI application as root | 15:29 |
| ppq | this happens since i did a 'sudo apt-get dist-upgrade' today. i installed this system some days ago but never really used it. | 15:30 |
| Linkmaster | okay, because what it looks like is something has had its permissions changed, and it can't run properly. It then promptly crashs, and since you're not root, it won't work | 15:30 |
| Linkmaster | Did you run "apt-get update" beforehand? | 15:30 |
| ppq | yes | 15:30 |
| Linkmaster | alright, good | 15:30 |
| Linkmaster | You should probably start at changing the ownership of your /home back to you | 15:31 |
| ppq | btw, i have some autostarts: 'synergyc bene' (bene is the hostname of another pc), 'yakuake' and 'gtk2-default-theme.rc.sh' (i didn't create the last one) | 15:31 |
| ppq | Linkmaster: http://paste.ubuntu.com/656467/ "bene" is my username | 15:34 |
| Linkmaster | ppq: interesting... | 15:38 |
| Linkmaster | everything is you, so I don't know why it is doing that | 15:38 |
| ppq | neither do i :( | 15:38 |
| Linkmaster | have you tried 'sudo chown bene /home' in a tty session? | 15:42 |
| ppq | well, i don't know if that's a good idea | 15:43 |
| ppq | but i'll try | 15:43 |

| === Bipolar is now known as bipolar | ||
| tsimpson | markit: probably /etc/kde4/ | 16:21 |
| markit | tsimpson: is now under .config/akonadi/akonadiserverrc | 16:22 |
| markit | not under .kde4.... | 16:22 |
| yofel | akonadi is xdg software, not specific to kde | 16:22 |
| yofel | at least it was meant to be like that when it was created | 16:23 |
| markit | yofel: I see... how can be globally setup? | 16:23 |
| markit | the config is also a "mess" since hardcodes the db path to explicit home dir | 16:23 |
| markit | i.e. Name=/home/marco/.local/share/akonadi/akonadi.db | 16:23 |
| markit | but this is a different story :) | 16:23 |
| yofel | IIRC /etc/akonadi/ should work the same as .config/akonadi | 16:23 |

| BluesKaj | tsimpson, I did a clean install and mispelled the pc name , I changed the /etc/hostname but when I ssh into my other linux machine the message still reads the wrong host spelling. Is there anywhere that I can correct this ? | 16:24 |
| tsimpson | soee: just make a it a symbolic link | 16:25 |
| soee | tsimpson, how ? | 16:25 |
| Pici | BluesKaj: You need to modify /etc/hosts as well. | 16:25 |
| soee | i never dif anything like that :) | 16:25 |
| BluesKaj | Pici, ok thanks | 16:25 |
| BluesKaj | Pici, it comes up correct in /etc/hosts | 16:26 |

| skramer_ | how can I change the font size of digital clock in KDE 4.7, I can't seem to find the option :-( | 16:29 |
| BluesKaj | Pici, Last login: Sun Jul 31 17:09:17 2011 from:mispelled -host :) | 16:30 |
| yofel | skramer_: iirc that automatically changes according to your panel size | 16:31 |
| tsimpson | BluesKaj: maybe you need to do "sudo hostname <new hostname>" to make the system start using it (guess) | 16:31 |
| markit | btw, when I logoff from the server console, the screeb becomes black and sometime ctrl-alt-rsys-k works, other just I have to reboot! | 16:32 |
| BluesKaj | ok tsimpson , will try that | 16:32 |
| skramer_ | yofel: hmm.. could it be the font is bigger after the upgrade to 4.7? | 16:32 |
| markit | (ssh session is alive, so the system is ok on it's own) | 16:32 |
| Pici | BluesKaj: How is the server you're sshing to resolving the name? DNS? | 16:32 |
| yofel | skramer_: I didn't notice a change in particular, but I never modified those settings either | 16:33 |
| yofel | at least not in anything plasma related | 16:33 |
| BluesKaj | Pici, it's a local machine | 16:33 |
| skramer_ | yofel: so maybe it's more obvious because the colour changed to white... | 16:34 |
| yofel | I use a dark theme so my color was always white ^^ | 16:34 |
| yofel | skramer_: there is a custom font color setting though | 16:35 |
| skramer_ | yofel: | 16:35 |
| skramer_ | could you pls. tell me where to find it? | 16:35 |
| yofel | open the digital clock settings, first page? Below Bold,Italic | 16:36 |
| markit | yofel: got not help on #akonadi, but if I put, as you suggested, in /etc/akonadi, then the "personal" config files is build upon that one, so uses sqlite3, thanks! | 16:38 |

| juemo | Hey pals ! I need a hand finding the source of a arp mapping problem. My router keeps broadcasting arp request to map my server and he never respond. Got any ideas ? | 19:05 |
| Pici | juemo: Have you asked in ##networking ? | 19:09 |
| gomiboy | juemo: iirc the answer is in unicast, are you sure you are sniffing right? | 19:09 |
| juemo | Pici: yes, of course... without success. | 19:09 |
| juemo | gomiboy: no I am not sure ;) | 19:10 |
| === faLUCE is now known as faLUCs | ||
| === faLUCs is now known as faLUCE | ||
| juemo | I start wireshark on the right interface, I see the arp requests broadcasted by the router, again and again | 19:11 |
| juemo | and the server say unaccessible from the LAN | 19:11 |
| juemo | say->stays | 19:11 |
| gomiboy | juemo: broken ethernet cable? no blinking lights? just guessing :) | 19:13 |
| juemo | gomiboy: I tested with several different cables, using different interfaces (my server has 6 interfaces). If I put the internet directly in the server (skipping the router) I get connected. If I connect to the server through static IP with a laptop I get connected too. | 19:15 |
| juemo | gomiboy: lights are blinking, of course ;) | 19:16 |
| juemo | I would like to test static arp entry, but I don't think my router supports it. | 19:17 |
| === Nexus6_ is now known as Nexus6 | ||
| gomiboy | juemo: mmm... checked the arp table on the server? Maybe it has an old entry for the router on the wrong interface | 19:29 |
| juemo | gomiboy: if so, how can I change this ? | 19:29 |
| juemo | gomiboy: I got two entry for the router, one for eth0 in which the mac address is wrong, and the other for eth2 in which the mac address is <uncomplete> | 19:31 |
| gomiboy | juemo: arp -d | 19:31 |
| juemo | gomiboy: done this, arp -a outputs the same thing | 19:33 |
| gomiboy | juemo: if you see incomplete it's ok, but if you see a wrong mac you have a conflicting ip on your net | 19:35 |
| Linkmaster | Isn't the proper command to build dependencies = 'sudo apt-get build-dep 'packagename'? | 19:36 |
| juemo | gomiboy: so, what can be done ? | 19:38 |
| gomiboy | juemo: something on your net is using the same ip as your router, find it and change it's ip to something else | 19:41 |
| juemo | gomiboy: it isn't the case. This network is really small. To make it easier solving my problem I reduced it to : router, server, laptop. | 19:44 |
| juemo | gomiboy: nothing else has this IP | 19:44 |
| juemo | gomiboy: I just realised I made a mistake and the router's mac address is correct | 19:46 |
| juemo | gomiboy: sorry :S But this doesn't slve my problem | 19:47 |
| gomiboy | juemo: oh, ok then, is it on the right interface? none of the other interfaces of the server is physically connected to the same switch/hub? | 19:49 |
| juemo | gomiboy: Yes, no. I mean, it is the right (eth0). No other interface is connected | 19:50 |
| === Axlin_ is now known as Axlin | ||
| juemo | gomiboy: by the way, thanks for your help :) | 19:53 |
| Linkmaster | Isn't the proper command to build dependencies = 'sudo apt-get build-dep 'packagename'? | 19:53 |
| gomiboy | juemo: so we have arp, and you can't ping the router from the server... is there a way to see the router's arp table? If not just reboot the the router and try again :P | 19:54 |
| juemo | gomiboy: I can see the router's "client list" which contains the right mac address for the server | 19:56 |
| gomiboy | juemo: then i see no reason why you can't ping the router... firewalls? | 19:58 |
| juemo | gomiboy: desactivated all tables. iptables -L lists nothing :( | 19:59 |
| gomiboy | juemo: can you ping both the router and the server from your laptop? | 20:01 |
| juemo | gomiboy: not the server | 20:01 |
| juemo | gomiboy: when I start a ping sequence from the laptop, I can see the arp requests from the router flowing in the server without responses. This is pretty frutrating | 20:02 |
| gomiboy | juemo: on the server: ifconfig ethX down on every interface except the one you have connected | 20:04 |
| juemo | gomiboy: done | 20:06 |
| gomiboy | juemo: can you ping the server now? | 20:07 |
| BluesKaj | juemo, is the laptop eth0 or wlan0? | 20:07 |
| juemo | gomiboy: no | 20:08 |
| juemo | BluesKaj: no wireless connexion is possible here. the interface is eth1 | 20:08 |
| gomiboy | juemo: i ran out of ideas... :( | 20:10 |
| BluesKaj | juemo, sudo dhclient eth1 | 20:10 |
| juemo | gomiboy: thanks for your efforts :) | 20:11 |
| juemo | BluesKaj: the problem is not the laptop. But if you insist ;) | 20:11 |
| juemo | BluesKaj: dhcp requests and offers always goes well | 20:12 |
| juemo | BluesKaj: but then, any connexion requieres a arp mapping. The server does not respond arp request the router broadcasts | 20:13 |
| juemo | BluesKaj: so this is just like if I was not connected | 20:13 |
| BluesKaj | juemo, so the server IP is recognized but the router doesn't connect to it due to mac address errors , is this correct? | 20:20 |
| juemo | BluesKaj: I can't say these are error. | 20:21 |
| juemo | BluesKaj: The server just seems not to respond to arp requests | 20:21 |
| juemo | BluesKaj: But the router seems to have the server's mac address and IP in cache but don't use it. | 20:24 |
| CoJaBo | I get a "package with gear" icon appear for about one second every few minutes in the taskbar. It is quite irritating- what is it, and how do I kill it? | 20:26 |
| juemo | CoJaBo: isn't it the package manager checking for updates ? Updates are good for your security. | 20:27 |
| CoJaBo | update every minute? | 20:28 |
| juemo | CoJaBo: you can configure it via KPackageKit | 20:28 |
| CoJaBo | its set to update st the default rate. which def. ain't every minute o_o | 20:29 |
| BluesKaj | juemo, so the server is discarding and not updating the arp cache with the proper address, so the router keeps requesting | 20:29 |
| juemo | BluesKaj: arp -a on the server gives me correct information about the router mac address and IP | 20:30 |
| BluesKaj | juemo, but the router isn't resolving the server address , then maybe the IPs should be set manually in the router for all hosts ..just a thought | 20:34 |
| juemo | BluesKaj: I have set up dhcp reservation based on mac address on the router. | 20:36 |
| juemo | BluesKaj: Base on a capture with wireshark, the server makes regular queries to the name server of google. I get the responses successfully. So this can't be an arp issue. | 20:37 |
| juemo | BluesKaj: I got to go for today. Thank you for your help ! | 20:39 |
| BluesKaj | never fiddled with mac addresses .just set the IPs in the router | 20:39 |

| soee | i couldnt work on 4.7 | 21:05 |
| raevin | soee: what's your ram and cpu?? | 21:06 |
| soee | 2GB, c2d 3.2GHz | 21:06 |
| raevin | soee: i might not have the same issues. i got 8 gb & 2.5 ghz quad core | 21:06 |
| soee | raevin, tell me how it works for you after upgrade | 21:07 |
| raevin | soee: will do. you gonna be on for a while longer? | 21:07 |
| BluesKaj | seawing, are you trying to install flash ? | 21:07 |
| soee | raevin ~ 1.5h | 21:07 |
| seawing | no, just air | 21:07 |
| raevin | soee: should have it done before then | 21:08 |
| soee | yeah :) | 21:08 |
| BluesKaj | if so sudo apt-get install flashplugin-installer | 21:08 |
| raevin | just having trouble adding the backports repo right now lol | 21:08 |
| BluesKaj | what's air anyway , seawing | 21:08 |
| raevin | nvm | 21:08 |
| seawing | the simpleviewer builder only works with air | 21:08 |
| seawing | it is an adobe work environment | 21:09 |
| seawing | simpleviewer and adobe both say it can be installed on Debian versions of Linux | 21:10 |
| raevin | kde looking to move to version 5 soon? o.o | 21:12 |
| seawing | The Adobe AIR runtime enables developers to use HTML, JavaScript, Adobe Flash® and Flex technologies, and ActionScript® to build web applications that run as standalone client applications without the constraints of a browser. | 21:16 |
| raevin | seawing: they forget to mention that they are anti-Linux tho :/ | 21:18 |
| giantpune | hi, im using kubuntu 11.04 on my laptop and i have some strange behavior that i cannot track down. maybe somebody can point me in the right direction... | 21:24 |
| raevin | giantpune: what's the issue...? | 21:25 |
| seawing | no doubt Raevin. I guess I will have to go with a VM solution | 21:25 |
| raevin | seawing: I'm sorry :/ Adobe used to be cool, but now even their 64-bit flash plugin is lame... | 21:25 |
| giantpune | every few days, i will try to open a program and i i will get the title in the star of the taskbar like the program is starting and after a while it will go away. i get a message like "the plasma desktop tried to start XXX program but it couldnt". no programs will open for me. either using the terminal to try and start them or anything. | 21:26 |
| seawing | THey say they removed support for linux to direct their resources to mobile devices. follow the $ I guess | 21:27 |
| ssfdre38 | hey do anybody know where the downloaded backgrounds are stored at when i get them from the Desktop Settings | 21:27 |
| giantpune | when this happens, i cant open any program to try and debug what is happening, and any program i try to start via the terminal doesnt crash, so there is no crash dump | 21:27 |
| raevin | ssfdre38: /usr/share i believe, look in there | 21:27 |
| giantpune | the only thing i can do is restart the computer and everything is back to normal for a few days | 21:27 |
| raevin | or do this: cd /usr && find . -iname *.jpg | 21:27 |
| raevin | giantpune: I had a similar issue w/ Kmail (wouldn't start up after i had to do a killall on it)...i ended up just reinstalling the OS unfortunately. | 21:28 |
| raevin | giantpune: any errors in /var/logs anywhere? | 21:28 |
| ssfdre38 | its not in there | 21:28 |
| giantpune | ill have to wait until it happens again raevin. it was yesterday that it happened last, so later this week i guess | 21:29 |
| === coaboa is now known as coaboa|afk | ||
| raevin | giantpune: There'll still be log entries, lol. Or check the system monitor or some other tool (too used to doing things thru cli, not enough gui lol) | 21:32 |
| raevin | soee: did you have to restart your computer when you installed kde 4.7? | 21:32 |
| soee | raevin, i did | 21:34 |
| raevin | soee: did it get stuck on libkresources4 for you? mine isn't moving past that point on installing lol | 21:39 |
| soee | raevin, i was using muon and it stoped while running dpkg ~70% | 21:40 |
| soee | i had to run dpkg reconfigure -a | 21:40 |
| soee | raevin, iv tried 3 times to sintall it - upgrade, frash install etc and it stoped all 3 times | 21:41 |
| raevin | soee: this isn't going to go well, is it....? | 21:42 |
| soee | raevin, dont worry should be ok | 21:43 |
| raevin | soee: it not going past a certain package makes me feel bad lol | 21:43 |
| soee | :D usig console ? | 21:44 |
| raevin | soee: i was using kpackagekit, lol, but now trying console | 21:44 |
| soee | yeah :-) it will tell you to reconfigure dpkg if im right | 21:44 |
| raevin | soee: yeah, lol; should i? | 21:45 |
| soee | raevin, yop | 21:45 |
| soee | *yup | 21:45 |
| raevin | soee: i don't see how backports can be such a pita lol | 21:46 |
| soee | things happen :) | 21:47 |
| soee | 4.7 will be/is really cool but ill wait till 4.7.1 or even 4.7.2 | 21:47 |
| raevin | i was sold on the whole kdm-integrating-grub thing | 21:48 |
| soee | as long as it wont work as smooth as 4.6.5 | 21:48 |
| raevin | off to reboot tho, soee, let you know what happens | 21:48 |
| soee | ok | 21:48 |

| raevin | soee: i notice a slight degration in performance, but i might have to actually use it more | 21:53 |
| soee | raevin, how it works for yoo when you minimize/maximize windows | 21:53 |
| soee | open 3,4 widnows | 21:53 |
| soee | and minimize, maximize tem | 21:53 |
| raevin | alright | 21:53 |
| soee | :) | 21:54 |
| raevin | soee: works just fine for me...i think your issue is more so your memory than your graphics | 21:54 |
| raevin | soee: i was having the same problems with ubuntu and others as well with 2 gb, went to 4 gb it helped a bit, got 8 now and it's all smooth | 21:54 |
| soee | raevin, its more related to kwin and xorg and their cpu consumption | 21:55 |
| raevin | soee: i'm not sure about that. i dunno intel's line though. core2duo have 2 or 4 procs? | 21:55 |
| raevin | *cores | 21:55 |
| soee | 2 | 21:55 |
| raevin | soee: ahhh, that could play a part in it itoo | 21:55 |
| raevin | *too | 21:55 |
| soee | they said the increased performece so it should work better for me but didnt | 21:55 |
| raevin | soee: i dunno, it seems more responsive to me personally. | 21:56 |
| raevin | soee: can you file a bug report or something w/ kde? | 21:56 |
| soee | im not sure what bug should i file as long im not sure what couse this issue | 21:56 |
| raevin | should be a generic option there too? i dunno | 21:56 |
| raevin | it is something to bring to their attention, tho, in some way...even goin on their irc channel (if they got one) | 21:57 |
| raevin | the only thing w/ kde 4.7 i dislike (right now) is that the start menu, when you go to the different catagories in the applications panel, doesn't have that back arrow anymore | 21:58 |
| soee | yuo have breadcrumb at the top | 21:58 |
| raevin | what you mean? | 21:59 |
| soee | but im not using it, iv been using old style menu but now this: http://kde-look.org/content/show.php/Takeoff?content=144078 | 21:59 |
| BluesKaj | soee, it's called the "cashew" :) | 21:59 |
| raevin | soee: i might try that out, it looks interesting...just afraid of rolling back, if it'll cause issues | 22:00 |
| soee | breadcrump -> Applications/Multimedia/ | 22:00 |
| raevin | ah, kk, didn't know the exact name of it thanks :D | 22:00 |
| soee | raevin, not sure if takeoff works with 4.7 | 22:01 |
| raevin | soee: i'm gonna wait a bit anyways | 22:01 |
| soee | :) | 22:01 |
| soee | moment | 22:02 |
| BluesKaj | classic menu works better as the kicker than the default app launcher | 22:02 |
| raevin | soee: it doesn't look bad, just too much like unity imo | 22:02 |
| soee | hehe :) but i like it, btw i was using unity for some time | 22:02 |
| raevin | soee: me too, which is what made me change back to kde lol | 22:03 |
| raevin | soee: it's just too bloated and requires WAY too much resources for what it does | 22:03 |
| CoJaBo | I get a "package with gear" icon appear for about one second every few minutes in the taskbar. It is quite irritating- what is it, and how do I kill it? | 22:06 |
| soee | raevin, this is how it works for me: http://img692.imageshack.us/img692/6873/takeoff.png | 22:07 |
| raevin | CoJaBo: it's kubuntu checking for updates, or you got updates waiting...start up kpackagekit to see if htere's any updates available | 22:07 |
| CoJaBo | raevin: it displays the icon every minute when theres an update? | 22:08 |
| raevin | soee: see, lol, too much like unity. though it does have a bit of a nicer look to it, more polished | 22:08 |
| soee | :) | 22:08 |
| raevin | CoJaBo: no, but it could be searching for one | 22:08 |
| raevin | CoJaBo: that's why isaid check to see if there's any avaialable | 22:08 |
| raevin | *available | 22:09 |
| raevin | soee: know of any good plasma themes for kde? | 22:09 |
| soee | dunno i like defualt, there is androbit - the most popular these days i think | 22:09 |
| CoJaBo | there were 6. however, it still does it after update, and did it before they were available. it displays that icon on and off constantly | 22:10 |
| soee | but i dont like dark themes | 22:10 |
| raevin | soee: i'm not even looking for dark, lol, but androbit apparently won't work for 4.7?? i installed it but it won't display in the list lol | 22:10 |
| soee | not sure didnt test with 4.7 | 22:11 |
| raevin | CoJaBo: check to see what the check updates period is set to. might be set to something less than 1 day | 22:11 |
| mendred | raevin: androbit works just fine with 4.7 : | 22:11 |
| raevin | soee: didn't think so lol, just didn't know if that's a way to test if it's not compatible | 22:11 |
| raevin | mendred: is there a reason why it won't show up in my listing, even after choosing something else then going back to it? | 22:11 |
| CoJaBo | raevin: its st to thedefault | 22:12 |
| raevin | CoJaBo: not sure what to say, unfortunately. i've never ran into that issue before. | 22:12 |
| mendred | raevin: hmmm..ur adding the theme from the get new themes window right? | 22:13 |
| CoJaBo | it says something aboutchecking fit distribution updates? | 22:13 |
| CoJaBo | for* | 22:13 |
| mendred | raevin: and other themese are getting added? | 22:13 |
| raevin | mendred: yeah, i just go to get new themes, click install, and says its installed, but its not listed | 22:13 |
| raevin | mendred: i added volatile just fine, after that nothing else is being added | 22:14 |
| mendred | raevin: thats wierd.. | 22:14 |
| raevin | mendred: apparently androbit is displaying now but h2o black sitll isn't, i dunno | 22:14 |
| mendred | raevin: anyways i now use glassified...androbit doesnt play well with lancelot on dark themes..so thats worth checking out | 22:15 |
| raevin | mendred: i used glassified before and actually quite nejoyed it, but forgot the name of the themes i had before, thanks! | 22:15 |
| BluesKaj | CoJaBo, kmenu/aps/sytem settings/software management/choose settings, uncheck "notify........" | 22:16 |
| BluesKaj | aps=applications | 22:16 |
| CoJaBo | BluesKaj: gm, thanks I'll try that | 22:17 |
| raevin | anyone know why xorg/nvidia doesn't like dual monitors? when i had it set up, flash would act funny (it'd go full screen, but the video itself wouldn't, just black border) | 22:17 |
| soee | not sure using flahs 64bit beta and works fine | 22:19 |
| raevin | soee: in dual-monitor? wat browser? | 22:19 |
| raevin | it works fine in single-monitor set up, but when i use my other monitor is f's up | 22:20 |
| soee | no sjust single | 22:20 |
| raevin | might be why lol | 22:20 |
| raevin | also, been wondering this...i got an external (usb) soundcard, and an onboard...i use the external for speakers and interla for headset...how come setting hte master mixer from the usb device to onboard doesn't redirect sound from the usb device to the headset? | 22:21 |
| raevin | it works fine with gnome's volume control app, but not with kde's kmixer stuff | 22:21 |
| soee | hmm im isong pavucontrol | 22:25 |
| BluesKaj | raevin, sudo gstreamer-properties (A GUI will open) (After configuring a reboot may be in order | 22:25 |
| raevin | not installed, and apt-get install says it doesn't exist :/ | 22:26 |
| BluesKaj | raevin, you may need to set gstreamer as your backend in phonon as well | 22:26 |
| BluesKaj | try installing gstreamer then runb the command I posted | 22:27 |
| raevin | BluesKaj: i have gstreamer set as the backend to phonon already, it's my only option there o.o | 22:28 |
| BluesKaj | raevin, ok , install pavucontrol for pulseaudio , it has options you can set for usb devicesI believe , unless you don't have pulseaudio | 22:30 |
| raevin | i might, but i've been sticking w/ alsa | 22:30 |
| BluesKaj | bbl...bbq needs atth | 22:30 |
| raevin | BluesKaj: kk | 22:30 |
| BluesKaj | raevin, ok I'm back for a few ...any luck with pavucontrol , otherwise F4 in alsamixer for the capture ctrls | 22:38 |
| raevin | BluesKaj: nah :/ i installed pavucontrol but it didn't make any difference, i'll try alsamixer | 22:38 |
| BluesKaj | raevin, yeah , pulseaudio hasnever done much for me either | 22:39 |
| raevin | BluesKaj: but it's not the capturing i want, it's sending the audio from the speakers (usb) to the headset (internal) that's causing me issues | 22:39 |
| BluesKaj | oh I/m sorry , I misunderstood ..I thought your soundcard was usb , raevin | 22:40 |
| raevin | it is | 22:40 |
| raevin | it's kind of a weird set up lol | 22:40 |
| raevin | i have an external soundcard (usb), used mainly for recording music and stuff which i have to re-setup, and i got my speakers hooked up to it | 22:40 |
| BluesKaj | usb spkrs and sndcd ..ok that's a new one on me :) | 22:40 |
| raevin | but hwne i want the audio to go to the eadset instead, and choose the internal one in kmixer, it still goes through the speakers | 22:41 |
| raevin | well, the speakers aren't usb, but the soundcard is | 22:41 |
| BluesKaj | right | 22:41 |
| raevin | ugh, brb, lol. think i made a mistake somewhere | 22:42 |
| raevin | need to reboot | 22:42 |
| BluesKaj | yeah, gotta check the bb for a few | 22:43 |
| raevin | i think i'm just going to do what i used to...use the external card for everything lol | 22:45 |
| raevin | only thing that bothers me is that audio from red eclipse goes to the headset, no matter what, but...meh | 22:45 |
| raevin | BluesKaj: thanks very much for the help though :) is much appreciated | 22:45 |
| BluesKaj | ok raevin ..whatever works for you :) | 22:51 |
| Linkmaster | how do you build the dependencies for an application? | 23:27 |
| ppq | Linkmaster: 'sudo apt-get build-dep some-program' | 23:27 |
