simion314hi all07:26
simion314i got no sound in Amarok07:26
simion314youtube works so it might be some silly configuratyion i have to do07:27
szaldo you have no sound or does it not play at all?07:27
simion314szal: the progress bar shows thast is playing07:29
szalthen open KMix (speaker icon in tray -> Mixer), switch to Playback streams while Amarok is playing & see what device it outputs to (right-click -> Move to change device)07:31
simion314szal: i made it now to work, i put one of my cards to Off, but i am not sure if this breaked my microphone07:31
simion314the thing is that in SystemSettings i have listed 2 audio devices, i think one is from my video card, it suports hdmi o but i am not sure, i know i spent a lot of time making my microphone work in skype07:32
simion314not sure why turning off something helped07:32
simion314what should i read to u8nderstend what is happening?07:33
szalyou should stop ranting, turn that device back on & do as I told you ;)07:33
simion314szal: i am not ranting,sorry if i seem to, i want to understend what you tell me realy does, so i do not break anything else07:34
szalit'll tell Pulseaudio to route audio from Amarok to the device you set there (same analogously for every other audio stream if you set it; you can also set the volume for each audio stream separately that way)07:36

giuliahello. I have downloaded Thunderbird from Mozilla's site. I wish to put it in the apps menu. But i found no where where to do it. Any idea ? Thank you08:41
=== bulldog98_ is now known as bulldog98
Axlingiulia: It's easier to install Thunderbird through KPackagekit, which can be found in the app menu by searching. If you prefer the most up-to-date version, you can add the repository by entering "sudo add-apt repository ppa:mozillateam/thunderbird-stable" without quotes in Konsole.08:45
=== oguz is now known as ogzy
giuliathank you :)08:46
giuliaAxlin > but I've just have downloaded my Thunderbird, will it be possible to add it to my apps without adding a deposit package ?08:47
giuliaAxlin > At least, I learn something truly new ;)08:47
AxlinIt's much easier to just install it through the package manager. Otherwise you have to unpack the .tar.gz archive and run "thunderbird-bin" from it08:50
AxlinYou could create a symlink for thunderbird-bin to /usr/bin, and then add it manually to your apps menu. This works fine, but the benefit of using the package manager (apart from ease) is that the package manager keeps it constantly up-to-date08:51
giuliaI already ran it, and it was a piece of cake to tell you the truth08:51
giuliabut to add the link in the app menu, well, it's truly something else08:51
giulia(nearly worse than making a law change honestly)08:52
AxlinYeah. I'm actually firing up my laptop right now (which runs Kubuntu) so I can take a look at this myself.08:52
giuliafiring up ? What do you mean ? (English is not my mother tongue)08:53
AxlinOh, sorry. I'm turning it on :-)08:53
giuliaok, a new expression in my vocabulary bag ;)08:53
AxlinHaha yeah, we Americans have some interesting phrases :)08:54
giulia;)08:54
giuliabut still, learning foreign languages has been very useful08:54

=== Bucky is now known as whoStoleMeTheFir
=== whoStoleMeTheFir is now known as Bucky
AxlinMust be complicated if you have to know a foreign language for it o.o08:57
giuliaactually, I speak 4 languages09:00
giuliabut as studies in peer-reviewed journals are in English, so yeah, I have to know at least one foreign language09:00
giulia:)09:00
giulia(don't worry, mom was and is sometimes still freaked out about this law change)09:01
AxlinOh I see. I wish I was skilled enough to speak 4 languages, heh09:02
giuliayou can09:03
AxlinOkay, this should do it. If you move the thunderbird folder where you want it (like ~/.thunderbird), then "cd" into that directory in Konsole, then enter: ln -s thunderbird-bin /usr/bin09:03
giuliaok09:03
AxlinThen right-click the Kickoff icon (the apps menu) and choose "edit applications". Then I would select the "Internet" category, or whichever category you prefer Thunderbird to be in09:03
AxlinThen you click the "New Item" button, and name it "Thunderbird". Select the new item, and give it whatever description and comment you want, and for command, enter: thunderbird-bin09:04
AxlinThat should do it09:04
AxlinDon't forget to click Save09:05
AxlinOh, shoot, I'm sorry. You actually want to do this with the "thunderbird" item in the thunderbird folder, not thunderbird-bin.09:09

Integral-solverhello, I am bash user of Linux from several years. Do you have any experience with UNIX? Is it a big difference in using it in comparison with Linux? Will I manage to use it easily?09:33
Tm_TIntegral-solver: sure, and documentation helps when needed. I'm bit wondering why you ask about unix here though09:36
TorchIntegral-solver: depends on the flavour of unix and the shell used.09:42
TorchIntegral-solver: a default install of, say, solaris feels a lot less polished when on a shell than kubuntu would09:43
Integral-solverOK, thank you. You are right Tm_T.It would be better idea to ask on some #unix channel ;-)09:45

BluesKajsystemclient, ~/.kde15:01
systemclientBluesKaj: would I install my manual build of okular into there?15:01
MamarokBluesKaj: that is not an install patch15:01
systemclientcmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/path/to/your/kde4/install/dir ..15:01
systemclientthis is the line bothering my15:01
systemclientme15:01
BluesKajMamarok, ok then tell him what it is instead of correcting me15:02
Mamaroksystemclient: if you build packages outside the usual distribution ones you should do that locally15:02
Mamarokjut a minute15:02
systemclientI found "/usr/bin/kde4", is that it?15:02
BluesKajusually the install path is /usr/bin , but not always15:04
Mamaroksystemclient: yes, but if you do a system installation there is normally no need to indicate that15:04
BluesKajhaven't bothered to figure out why :)15:04
systemclientMamarok: I want to build the current dev version of okular15:04
systemclientBluesKaj: "which okular" gives me /usr/bin …15:04
Mamaroksystemclient: yes, I understood that, but you should not do that in the system with unstable packages, do it locally in your $HOME15:05
James147systemclient: the path you want is just "/usr"15:05
BluesKajdunno, systemclient  , must be a readme in the build folder , chgeck that15:05
systemclientMamarok: okay, that was my question basically. So I can do /opt or so?15:05
genii-aroundIf you're building custom software versions, the usual system place to put them is in somewhere like /usr/local/bin or so on15:05
Mamarokor that, yes15:05
systemclientgenii-around: afaik opt is the safest place for custom stuff15:06
Mamarokgenii-around: you still need sudo rights for that, if you build in your home you don't, and its very easy to remove15:06
systemclientMamarok: I'll just use project/build then15:06
James147^^ though you sould put /usr/local (which is the default if you dont spicify _DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX)15:06
* James147 notes where ever you put it dont spiicify the bin directory, just the directroy bin is in15:07
systemclientJames147: good to know15:07
genii-aroundI usually make in my home directory somewhere, test, then copy them to the /usr/local hierarchy and chown15:09
James147systemclient: the general convention is /usr for anything built and packaged, /usr/local for anythign that is just goning to be installed directly (ie without packaging) and somewhere in your home if your just messing around :)15:10
systemclientJames147: and the very latter is what I am doing. thanks!15:11
yofelsystemclient: also, if you want to find out the install prefix of your running kde install use 'kde4-config --prefix'15:12
yofelbut /usr/local would be correct here15:12
systemclientyofel: that command tells me usr, which makes sense15:13
James147systemclient: just so you know, the seperation between /usr and /usr/local is that things in /usr are managed by a packagemanager and things in /usr/local are managed by the administrator  ^^ it makes it easier for the admin to remove things manually installed :)15:15
systemclientJames147: I know, that is why it makes sense that my distro put it in /usr and not /usr/local15:16

mellhenwell. is there a chance to use 32bit instead of 16bit as output? or better native 24bit.19:59
BluesKajmellhen, sorry , I don't know where to find to find asla settings for codecs ..I just use the pcm/spdif out to an audio receiver digital input.. whatever digital ratres are used from my experience seldom above 96khz , mostly it's 48khz from the readout on my audio receiver20:03
mellheni have no external dau.20:04
mellheni sry its DAC in english20:05
mellhendigital analog converter20:06
BluesKajwell. unless you are using powered monitor speakers then the bit depth is probly irrelavent above 16bit20:06
BluesKajin terms of sound quality20:06

mellhenBluesKaj: sry i do not understand, what this links is for?20:10
mellhenBluesKaj: its exactly my soundcard.20:10
BluesKajit says it passes /converts 24 bit. mellhen20:13
mellhenmhh. i made a new test with mplayer. i forced it to use s24le and s32le. see results. http://pastebin.com/gxBDLyPS20:15
BluesKajmellhen, do you have pulseaudio installed ?20:21
HaDAki'm not sure how i managed to pull it off, but somehow i have widgets running off screen. they show up in the "running" list... i'd like them back. i don't have any other activities, and i was messing with the screen placement prior. any ideas?20:21
BarkingFishHaDAk, Ỳou have widgets running outside your visible desktop area?20:21
HaDAkit would appear that way.20:22
BarkingFishI've done that before, all I did was increase the screen resolution to allow me to get to the widgets and move them into the area where I work, then drop the screen back to normal size20:22
HaDAki can't increase the screen past where it's already at >.>20:23
BarkingFishThe other option then is to kill off the running widgets20:23
HaDAkis there a way to just...collect the widgets?20:23
HaDAkidk how to kill em off.20:23
HaDAkit's irritating, because my system tray is there. so, apps like pidgin and thunderbird that minimize to the tray are inaccessible20:24
BarkingFishHaDAk, When you say they appear in the "running" list, which list do you mean?20:24
HaDAkif i go to add widgets, choose categories, and click running20:24
bbeckHow do I make the kontact conflict resolution dialogs from coming up all the time?20:24
bbeckHow do I keep the kontact conflict resolution dialogs from coming up all the time?20:25
BarkingFishHaDAk, The other option would be to decrease the size of the icons on your desktop, I would imagine your widgets will shrink too.20:26
BarkingFishon second thoughts, don't try that, they don't follow.20:27
mellhenBluesKaj: sry that i stoped answering you20:51
mellhenBluesKaj: yes i have pulseaudio installed.20:51
mellhensomeone was writing to me in another irc-channel and i took him for you.20:52
BarkingFishanyone know what the packages for Libreoffice writer's dictionaries are please? I'm looking for a dutch dictionary :)20:52
BluesKajmellhen, pulseaudio might be causing mplayer to crash20:52
mellhenBluesKaj: i was talking in the pulseaudio channel. it seems that my sound cards driver is limited to s16le and s32le:20:54
mellhenBluesKaj: http://pastebin.com/8Gfb3zWf20:54
BluesKajstrange , mellhen , your cards native bit depth is 2420:54
mellhenthis is exactly what i thought..20:55
mellhenBluesKaj: another indication for my thesis is: http://pastebin.com/gxBDLyPS20:57
mellhenBluesKaj: i forced mplayer to use a specific format.. s24le does not wirk20:57
mellhen*wirk = wirk20:57
mellhen*wirk = work. i hate my keyboard ;)20:57
BluesKajmellhen, yes I tried 24bit with mplayer, but it played back at 16 bit , altho my card is 24bit capable too :(21:00
mellhentry s32le21:00
BluesKajprobly because I don't seem to have any 24bit wav files :)21:01
mellhenmaybe a bug of mplayer. bit aplay is not able to play it, too21:01
BluesKajmellhen, I have vlc as my default player for all media , since this pc is our home media server , it has to be easy for wife to use ..no command line stuff for her :)21:05
mellhenBluesKaj: is there a way too see, what vlc uses 16, 24 or 32?21:05
BluesKajmellhen, there might be , it has extensive options , I just use the alsa audio output thru option in tools/preferences/audio21:08
BluesKajwith spdif when available21:09

SiegeLordAny clue what might have happened here and how I can fix it? http://img571.imageshack.us/img571/7445/wtfad.jpg23:46
SiegeLordI can unlock the panel and, e.g., try setting the panel screen edge (just clicking on it) and the whole thing snaps back to its normal location... but as soon as I log out and log back in, it returns to this23:46
