| jmichaelx | this is very OT, but i just did something simple to my home network that is blowing my socks off at the moment... for lack of a switch (i have one, but it's too loud) i connected two PCs together with a crossover cable | 00:04 |
|---|---|---|
| jmichaelx | don't know why it never occurred to me to do this before. now i have two machined with gigabit NICs that are talking to each other at gigabit speeds | 00:05 |
| Daskreech | jmichaelx: nice eh? | 00:08 |
| Daskreech | We had 10 gigabit hubs at Uni | 00:08 |
| jmichaelx | Daskreech: yea, i have some 10gig stuff to mess with at work, but have never even made use of anything 1gig here at home | 00:08 |
| Daskreech | Makes 150 MB wireless seem amusing | 00:09 |
| jmichaelx | that is for sure | 00:09 |
| jmichaelx | i ahve 2 PCs here at my desk that are often both running when i am at home. they both use wireless, and i use synergy with them. well, synergy over wireless is not always fun, and that was the main problem i was trying to address | 00:11 |
| jmichaelx | i just transferred a 25GB music directory from one machine to the other in 26/27 minutes | 00:14 |
| jmichaelx | so sweet | 00:14 |
| SIR_Taco | jmichaelx: nice | 00:14 |
| jmichaelx | however, with a crossover cable connecting 2 gigabit NICs, should i not be able to get even better speeds than that? | 00:16 |
| SIR_Taco | can't go faster than your NIC | 00:16 |
| jmichaelx | yes, i guess the math is obviously coming out right | 00:17 |

| amnite | Well im running kubuntu 10.10 upgraded from 10.04. I dont know if the upgrade did it or not i dont usually use my cd drive, but some discs will mount and some will not. But the ones that dont mount i can create an iso through terminal and k3b. But i cant force mount the cds with any command at all. Any ideas? | 00:29 |

| jmichaelx | Daskreech: however, it does not seem to be consistent | 01:04 |
| Daskreech | jmichaelx: What happens? | 01:05 |
| jmichaelx | Daskreech: i am developing a theory right now that i will need to test... i am wondering if this might be a yakuake bug, and that if yakuake is closed, it saves it's history, but if it is running when the machine is shut down, it is not saving the histroy | 01:06 |

| thinhhoang | hi, does anyone know why notifications goes wrong after started Kopete? I get those in an ugly grey box on top of the screen. | 05:02 |
| naftilos76 | hi i am using the closed nvidia drivers from the repos. I get a complete system crash when at twin view and flash is playing. Can anybody help? | 05:19 |
| naftilos76 | That happens randomly after about 10-30 mins after starting playing any flash video | 05:20 |
| Daskreech | thinhhoang: Plasma closed? | 05:30 |
| Daskreech | naftilos76: Send a report to nvidia | 05:31 |
| naftilos76 | i am sure others have already done it! | 05:32 |
| naftilos76 | This is a well known bug | 05:32 |
| Daskreech | ah does it have a well known solution? | 05:34 |
| naftilos76 | i wish it did! | 05:35 |
| naftilos76 | nouveau is supposed to provide native 2/3d support but i guess we will wait for a few years before it does! | 05:36 |
| Daskreech | Perhaps but if there isn't a known workaround for the closed drivers then submit a bug to nvidia and wait for them to address it | 05:37 |
| Daskreech | there isn't much else you can do | 05:37 |
| naftilos76 | i guess you're right | 05:37 |
| naftilos76 | i even tested the latest 280 from nvidia and i encounter the crash a few minutes later | 05:38 |
| thinhhoang | Daskreech:how do I know whether plasma is up? | 05:46 |
| Daskreech | thinhhoang: Do you have a taskbar on the screen? | 05:47 |
| thinhhoang | Daskreech:yes, everything seems normal | 05:47 |

| thinhhoang | Daskreech:yes. | 05:48 |
| thinhhoang | Daskreech: the only way is to close the System Tray and reopen it. | 05:49 |

| alvin | There goes the 4GB of memory. Now ... starting ... to ... devour ... swap | 10:37 |
| alvin | Hmm, maybe KDE should change its system requirements. In fact, are there any? | 10:37 |
| James147 | alvin: somethings wrong if its eating that much memory ... | 10:42 |
| alvin | Doesn't look wrong to me. It's working. The mailbox is filling, but akonadi and nepomuk are feasting on my system resources. | 10:43 |
| * alvin starts ordering more memory. | 10:43 | |
| James147 | nepomuk `should` be limited to teh ammount of memory it can use | 10:44 |
| alvin | Actually, there should be a bug report about that. My N900 has less memory and it is claimed Kontacts works on the N900. | 10:44 |
| alvin | 518 MB swap in use now. | 10:44 |
| James147 | alvin: it should... there is something wrong... i would stop the processes now before you lose the system | 10:44 |
| James147 | my guess is you have a memory leak | 10:44 |
| alvin | Better research it then. System still works, but a bit slower. I see amarok, X, akonadi (imap_feeder) in the top in htop. | 10:45 |
| alvin | How would one identify a memory leak? | 10:46 |
| James147 | alvin: thats the problem with memory leaks your system will work up untill hte point it dosnt ^^ | 10:46 |
| alvin | biggest memory usage is by akonai_nepomuk_feeder | 10:46 |
| alvin | We're talking about +3GB of IMAP that are being fetched now. | 10:47 |
| alvin | The weirdest thing is watching the mailbox. I sort my mails in different folders. I'm currently watching the folder with Launchpad bugmail. It contains 1 message that changes every second or so. The messages are mails that normally belong in order folders. Creepy. | 10:50 |
| alvin | ok, number of messages changes too. 1-3 mails. It's scary to watch. Either this is normal, and the mail is being sorted, or akonadi is randomly throwing my mails in random folders. | 10:51 |
| alvin | I will not be amused with the last option. | 10:52 |

| Machtin | is it possible to auto-pause the download while extraction is active? or delay extraction until downloading ist finished? | 11:24 |
| alvin | What download are we talking about? | 11:24 |
| Machtin | well, let's suppose i have premium och-accounts which i use. | 11:25 |
| Machtin | let's also suppose I have about hundred files à 100mbyte | 11:25 |
| Machtin | when i got a couple of downloads, i would like them to be extracted while there is no downloading active.. because they disturb each other and the hard disk can't quite handle it. | 11:26 |
| alvin | I suppose you have, but I have still no idea what you're talking about. What's Och? | 11:26 |
| Machtin | one click hoster | 11:26 |
| alvin | Oh. Well, you could use $ ionice -c 3 for downloading to disk and extracting stuff. | 11:27 |
| Machtin | hm. | 11:27 |
| soee | can i configure tabulator size in Kate ? | 11:28 |
| Machtin | oh my, i'm an idiot. sorry alvin. i just got the wrong channel. irssi tricked me :D | 11:29 |
| alvin | I just looked up what one-click hosting is :-) I guess command line downloading might be difficult there. (You can set cookies in wget. Maybe kget can be integrated with your browser?) | 11:29 |
| alvin | Machtin: lol, ok | 11:29 |
| James147 | soee: yes | 11:29 |
| soee | James147, where exactly ? atm i have to pres tab 3 times to get what i want | 11:29 |

| soee | James147, thank you | 11:34 |
| alvin | Where could I find KDE system requirements for KDE 4.7 on http://www.kde.org ? | 11:34 |
| James147 | alvin: I am not sure it lists any ^^ | 12:19 |
| alvin | Well, it should. Or kubuntu.org should warn. Currently, it says: 512MB, recommended 1GB. It should be 'recommended: 6GB if you like to read mail'. | 12:20 |
| James147 | alvin: again... it should need 6gigs | 12:20 |
| alvin | I want to justify the order of extra memory for all workstations to my boss. | 12:20 |
| James147 | shouldnt ^^ | 12:22 |
| James147 | :) | 12:22 |
| alvin | On a related note: Can I just do # mkswap /swapfile and then swapon that file? | 12:22 |
| James147 | alvin: if /swapfile exists and is the required size | 12:22 |
| James147 | (dd if=/dev/zero of=/swapfile bs=1M count=1024 to create a file 1gig in size) | 12:23 |
| alvin | Nice, thanks | 12:23 |
| alvin | I guess I have to do that within 2 hours from now. | 12:24 |
| * James147 suggests rebooting and seeing if it continues ^^ | 12:24 | |
| alvin | I'm intending to see this through. I don't want to end up with mails distributed randomly between all my folders | 12:24 |
| alvin | No, I'm afraid of what might happen if I interrupt this. Maybe the mails will magically be returned to their correct folders when it finishes. | 12:25 |
| alvin | If I would have any free memory, I'd record it to create a bug report about the random distribution. | 12:26 |
| alvin | Times sure are changing. I just checked the memory usage on the Kolab server itself: 21 MB | 12:27 |

| alvin | a cronjob that kills akonadi_nepomuk_feeder every half hour would do the trick | 15:19 |
| BluesKaj | just don't try to get rid of akondi or nepomuk , they will take away the kubuntu desktop | 15:20 |
| BluesKaj | !kopete | 15:20 |

| ionite | BluesKaj: btw i've connected my netbook to a larger LED screen. i can't switch the screen over properly when i press the function + display button. both screen becomes black! What should i do? should i install something? | 15:20 |
| alvin | Well, kmail has been busy devouring system resources for the pas 7 hours. I'm going home and let it index mails during the night. | 15:21 |
| BluesKaj | ionite, what kind of connection is it ,vga ? | 15:22 |
| ionite | BluesKaj: how do i check? it's connected via serial port | 15:22 |
| BluesKaj | ionite, is the port blue ? | 15:24 |
| ionite | BluesKaj: yes it is | 15:25 |
| BluesKaj | ionite, system settings>Display&Monitor, look art the settings and choose options other than default | 15:27 |
| ionite | BluesKaj: sorry i dont get u? | 15:29 |
| BluesKaj | ionite, if there's a VGA option choose that | 15:29 |
| ionite | BluesKaj: U mean the primary output? | 15:29 |
| BluesKaj | ionite, dunno , never used a netbook ..look around , you won't break anything | 15:30 |
| ionite | BluesKaj: why is it a lag delay when ever i switch from tab browsing to tab browsing? | 15:32 |
| BluesKaj | ionite, dunno | 15:34 |
| Daskreech | ionite: Disk cache | 15:36 |
| ionite_ | BluesKaj: sorry DC. what did u late write? | 15:37 |
| Daskreech | ionite: Disk cache | 15:38 |
| ionite_ | what's disk cache? | 15:39 |
| ionite_ | Daskreech: u mean the lag in rekonq is because of diskcache? | 15:39 |
| Daskreech | yes | 15:42 |
| Daskreech | It's pulling the images the site is using from the hard drive. It only keeps like the last 3 or 4 tabs in memory | 15:42 |
| ionite_ | Daskreech: so what should i do? | 15:44 |
| Daskreech | ionite_: How long a delay do you experience? | 15:44 |
| ionite_ | Daskreech: btw how can stop kopete from starting up once i turn on my PC? | 15:44 |
| ionite_ | Daskreech: 2 secs | 15:44 |
| Daskreech | ionite_: close it before you logout | 15:45 |
| ionite_ | Daskreech: u mean close rekonq before i log out? | 15:45 |
| szal | ionite_: kopete, not rekonq | 15:46 |
| Daskreech | ionite_: close kopete. Kde will start up whatever programs you have open when you log back in | 15:46 |
| ubuntu4shane | is there a way to disable the touchpad while typing? I think in Gnome this was automagic, because I don't ever remember having this problem before, this page describes it for Gnome, but I don't see it for KDE: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticsTouchpad | 15:46 |
| ionite_ | Daskreech: but i've already closed it everytime i log out but the kopete window just pops out whenver i restart my comp or boot up | 15:47 |
| Daskreech | !autostart | 15:47 |
| ubottu | Use the tool in System Settings -> (Advanced tab) Autostart, or System Settings -> Startup and Shutdown, to make programs automatically start in KDE session. See !boot for managing which non-interactive programs start at boot | 15:47 |
| Daskreech | See if it's listed there | 15:47 |
| ubuntu4shane | I'm in Settings, Input Devices -> and touchpad, but I don't see a way to disable it while typing, it is becoming a real problem. | 15:47 |
| * James147 remembers there being an option inside kopetes settings for it auto starting | 15:48 | |
| ionite_ | Daskreech: i checked. it's not there. | 15:48 |
| Daskreech | ubuntu4shane: erm. I remember seeing that somewhere | 15:49 |
| ionite_ | Daskreech: so how do i solve the delay problem? is it because of my ram? | 15:50 |
| ubuntu4shane | this is pretty old, would it still be applicable? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=271052 | 15:50 |
| Daskreech | ionite_: Maybe. How much RAM/Swap do you have? | 15:50 |
| ionite_ | Daskreech: how do i check? | 15:50 |
| ubuntu4shane | oh, scratch that link, it is old | 15:50 |
| Daskreech | ionite_: open a konsole and type free | 15:51 |
| Daskreech | pastebin that | 15:51 |
| ionite_ | Daskreech: btw, how can i disable the kopete from starting up automactically? it's not in the start up list | 15:51 |
| James147 | ionite_: look in kopetes settings | 15:51 |
| ionite_ | James147: then? | 15:51 |
| James147 | ... | 15:51 |
| szal | ionite_: you can read for yourself.. | 15:52 |
| Daskreech | James147: Where would that be I've never seen that setting | 15:52 |
| James147 | Daskreech: I sware I have seen it there before ^^ | 15:52 |
| ionite_ | James147: i tried that but there's no uncheck box for start up or something. | 15:52 |
| Daskreech | James147: That's fine. Could you check if you see it now? | 15:53 |
| * szal has seen something along these lines in the past.. though it might just be that that is only in the first-run wizard | 15:53 | |
| ionite_ | Daskreech: http://paste.ubuntu.com/662761/ | 15:53 |
| James147 | hmm.. seems to have disapeared | 15:54 |
| ionite_ | James147: the settings doesnt show anything that disable auto starts up | 15:55 |
| _BS__ | KDE Help Center - Build Search Index - Application Manuals - Missing. What do I need to get? | 15:56 |
| ubuntu4shane | hmm, well, I don't see a way to disable the touchpad while the keyboard is in use. I found the touchpad settings, but there doesn't seem to be a way to disable it while keyboard is in use. | 15:56 |
| Daskreech | ionite_: Wow swap isn't even touched. Guess it's not disk cache | 15:57 |
| ionite_ | Daskreech: what does it mean? is my netbook in healthy memory? do i need a ram upgrade? | 15:57 |
| Daskreech | ubuntu4shane: possibly ask in #kubuntu-devel ? If anything they will tell you how to file a bug for that | 15:57 |
| Daskreech | ionite_: No for your usage it seems to be fine | 15:57 |
| ubuntu4shane | thanks Daskreech | 15:57 |
| ionite_ | Daskreech: what could the lag in web browsing be? sometimes times there's a few seconds delay even while scrolling down face book. or tab switching. | 15:58 |
| ionite_ | James147: the settings doesnt show anything that disable auto starts up | 15:59 |
| Daskreech | ionite_: I know it's a problem with it fetching something but I dont' know from where now. | 15:59 |
| ionite_ | Daskreech: so is there anything i must type or do? now even as i type texts there some seconds of delay as well. | 16:00 |
| Daskreech | ionite_: hmm ? That's not poper | 16:01 |
| Daskreech | proper | 16:01 |
| ionite_ | Daskreech: precisely that's why i am worried. i wonder what could be wrong even typing text results in some 2 secs delay | 16:02 |
| crowbar | I feel like i'm taking crazy pills. in 11.04 is there no way to set a manual connection as the default? I keep NetworkManager keeps setting dhcp address and i have to switch to manual. the checkbox for "System connection" is always grayed out. | 16:02 |
| ionite_ | Daskreech: do u know how can i disable kopete auto start up? | 16:03 |
| Quintasan | ubuntu4shane: System Settings -> Input Devices -> Touchpad | 16:04 |
| Quintasan | ubuntu4shane: Should solve your problem | 16:04 |
| Daskreech | Quintasan: doesn't | 16:04 |
| Quintasan | Daskreech: Uhm, what? | 16:04 |
| Daskreech | Quintasan: There isn't a setting to disable upon typing | 16:05 |
| ubuntu4shane | Quintasan: been there, didn't see any options to shut it off while typing | 16:05 |
| Quintasan | hmmm | 16:05 |
| Quintasan | ubuntu4shane: Please file a bug under https://github.com/lunaryorn/synaptiks/issues then | 16:05 |
| Daskreech | Quintasan: The kcm module for KDE is essentially ksynaptics isn't it? | 16:06 |
| Daskreech | Or does that provide more options? | 16:07 |
| Quintasan | Daskreech: synaptiks is the kcm module | 16:07 |
| Daskreech | ubuntu4shane: ^^ that link should help | 16:07 |
| Quintasan | note the K :P | 16:07 |
| Daskreech | ok good | 16:07 |
| Daskreech | :-D | 16:07 |
| ionite_ | Daskreech: do u know how can i disable kopete auto start up? | 16:08 |
| ubuntu4shane | ok, thanks Quintasan | 16:09 |
| Daskreech | Quintasan: Since you are here. ionite_ has kopete starting with KDE but not because of the session and not because of autostart | 16:09 |
| Daskreech | Any other ideas? | 16:09 |
| Quintasan | Hmm, did he try the generic "quit kopete and logout" solution? | 16:10 |
| ionite_ | Daskreech: pls enlighten me on the RAM. does MEM means RAM? | 16:10 |
| ionite_ | Quintasan: i did. | 16:10 |
| Daskreech | yes | 16:10 |
| ubuntu4shane | appears that kde-config-synaptiks was not installed, I suppose that will require a reboot to get that running? | 16:11 |
| Quintasan | ubuntu4shane: I don't think so, you can try relogging is first | 16:11 |
| Quintasan | ionite_: can you pastebin output of "ls -al ~/.kde/Autostart" ? | 16:12 |
| ionite_ | Quintasan: http://paste.ubuntu.com/662779/ | 16:14 |
| Quintasan | hmmmm | 16:14 |
| Quintasan | ionite_: ls -al ~/.config/autostart please? | 16:16 |
| ubuntu4shane | sorry for my lack of understanding, but was synaptiks package supposed to give me an option in settings -> input -> touchpad? I opted for reboot, if I have to close all my open apps, was best to just reboot. | 16:17 |
| ionite_ | Quintasan: http://paste.ubuntu.com/662785/ | 16:17 |
| Quintasan | ionite_: Hmm, no idea then. Can you try uninstalling it and relogging and see what happens? | 16:18 |
| Quintasan | ubuntu4shane: You should have kde-config-touchpad installed | 16:18 |
| kobus_ | what is the best channel for asking linux serial questions? | 16:18 |
| ionite_ | Quintasan: alright thanks. btw do u why i experience delays in web browsing? even scrolling down facebook there are delay and now typing texts sometimes there are a few seconds delay | 16:19 |
| ubuntu4shane | Quintasan: actually I think I got it, I ran synaptiks and that gives me the option to shut off the touchpad upon typing | 16:19 |
| Quintasan | ubuntu4shane: Cool :) | 16:19 |
| ionite_ | Quintasan: when i type free in knosole | 16:20 |
| ionite_ | Quintasan: MEM refers to my Ram? | 16:20 |
| ubuntu4shane | Quintasan: seems the package was kde-config-synaptiks and then just run synaptiks from the command line | 16:20 |
| ubuntu4shane | select the option, and presto, I think it is fixed. | 16:21 |
| Quintasan | ionite_: Yes, it refers to your ram | 16:21 |
| ubuntu4shane | thanks all! | 16:21 |
| Quintasan | ubuntu4shane: I'm glad it works | 16:21 |
| * Quintasan has to run to shop | 16:21 | |
| ionite_ | Quintasan: so if the FREE columns shows very few numbers does that mean that i need to add more rams? | 16:22 |
| Quintasan | ionite_: You could try uninstalling it for a while and see what happens after a relogin, maybe there will be some error message | 16:22 |
| Quintasan | ionite_: It means you have little free memory now | 16:22 |
| Quintasan | ionite_: You could try closing some applications | 16:22 |
| ionite_ | Quintasan: does that means a bad thing? | 16:23 |
| ionite_ | Quintasan: nothing is on except konsole and rekonq | 16:23 |
| Quintasan | ionite_: Well, how much memory does your computer have? | 16:23 |
| Quintasan | in MB | 16:23 |
| ionite_ | Quintasan: 1 GB but i believed its shared with graphics. how do i check how much my graphics take up? | 16:23 |
| Quintasan | ionite_: Graphics have separate memory, you don't have worry about that | 16:24 |
| ionite_ | Quintasan: but mine is a integrated atom intel mobo | 16:24 |
| Quintasan | I don't think they are different in this matter but I'm not sure | 16:25 |
| ionite_ | Quintasan: it says integrated intel mobile 6 series | 16:25 |
| Quintasan | ionite_: Press ALT+ESC | 16:25 |
| Quintasan | ionite_: Ah, CTRL+ESC | 16:25 |
| ionite_ | Quintasan: anyways, how do check my CPU infos and graphics infos? | 16:25 |
| ionite_ | Quintasan: looking @ the list i guess 1GB isn't enough for my ram | 16:26 |
| Quintasan | ionite_: Let me tell you other way: if everything works fine then you don't need more memory | 16:27 |
| * Quintasan has to go | 16:27 | |
| ionite_ | Quintasan: things work fine but it's a little laggy and delays | 16:27 |
| Quintasan | I'll be back in a few minutes | 16:27 |
| ionite_ | Quintasan: thanks for ur help i gotta go. bye | 16:28 |

| crushpest | hi everybody | 20:00 |
| crushpest | how can i turn the whole volume of my audio up? | 20:00 |
| jmichaelx | crushpest: that is a good question. i have issues on the box i am using at the moment with the audio not being nearly loud enough. i spent some time trying to address that today | 20:02 |
| jmichaelx | crushpest: my many attempts at fixing this have failed, but i have been able to get some apps (mplayer) to use greater amplification | 20:06 |
| kyubutsu | you might have the wrong device as master | 20:06 |
| jmichaelx | crushpest: check out: http://how-to.wikia.com/wiki/How_to_increase_MPlayer_volume_above_sound_cards_maximum_volume | 20:07 |
| jmichaelx | kyubutsu: i know that at least my phonon settings are correct | 20:08 |

| KimLaroux | I just can't update these days... nothing will download | 20:18 |
| raevin | MMlosh: could be a policykit issue, not sure. i haven't used ubuntu since like 10.10 or 9.4, so it's been a while | 20:18 |
| raevin | KimLaroux: do you have repos available? | 20:19 |
| MMlosh | raevin, maybe.. maybe ubuntu just decided to drop the policykit privilege... too bad I can't instruct google to find me how to get it back | 20:19 |
| KimLaroux | raevin, yeah it used to work... and it seems to work trough command line so far | 20:20 |
| raevin | policykit still exists o.o at least in kubuntu | 20:20 |
| raevin | KimLaroux: what happens when you try to update? Anything at all? | 20:20 |
| KimLaroux | it gets stuck at 1/3 download | 20:20 |
| MMlosh | do you know what exactly means being in the group administrator? | 20:21 |
