[00:00] <SIR_Taco> BarkingFish: renaming/moving the file, and rebooting, should regenerate it
[00:01] <BarkingFish> ok
[00:01] <BarkingFish> brb
[00:04] <OffToHades> well roger me with a stick of dynamite and call me herbert. I have sound.
[00:04] <valerx> aiuto
[00:05] <OffToHades> !it | valerx
[00:06] <BarkingFish> SIR_Taco, I have full crystal clear audio
[00:06] <SIR_Taco> excellent :)
[00:06] <BarkingFish> instead of renaming the alsa-base.conf, i deleted
[00:06] <SIR_Taco> same reslut
[00:06] <BarkingFish> rebooted and came back with my speakers at full whack
[00:06] <SIR_Taco> result even lol
[00:06] <BarkingFish> bearing in mind it's gone 1am here, that will annoy the neighbors!
[00:07] <BarkingFish> oh crapola
[00:08] <SIR_Taco> well likely, an update has happened, it didn't over-write the config file (becuase by default that's usually bad)... so removing the old config made it make the new updated one... which has fixed your problem
[00:08] <BarkingFish> I'm gonna screenshot this since I can't copy it, just went to multimedia in the systemsettings area, and got asked about a load of things the system wants to remove
[00:08] <valerx> dove devo scriverlo per entrare nel canale /join #ubuntu-it
[00:09] <SIR_Taco> BarkingFish: yes, they would be the old devices that you were using (or not in your case)
[00:09] <BarkingFish> valerx, scuse, mi non parlato in italiano.
[00:10] <BarkingFish> momento, per favore
[00:10]  * BarkingFish = google translate
[00:10] <SIR_Taco> there is an Italian channel, couldn't tell you what it is though
[00:11] <valerx> dove devo scriverlo
[00:12] <SIR_Taco> seems he found a bird, and 80's band, and something resembling a screwderiver :)
[00:48] <kbroulik> is it possible to use light dm with Kubuntu as well? Ubuntu 10.10's dm looks soo nice compared to the old-fashioned kdm
[00:50] <Pici> kbroulik: sure. Just install it and tell it to be the default at install time.
[00:51] <kbroulik> okay, well, right, should work as it 1. will be in repos as of ubuntu and 2. kubuntu is not much different in the basement than ubuntu :)
[00:51] <kbroulik> maybe just have to fuzz around with the theme then
[00:51] <kbroulik> but kubuntu will ship kdm by default?
[00:52] <Pici> Er, I think so.
[00:55] <SIR_Taco> kbroulik: yes, kubuntu ships KDM by default

[01:47] <andygraybeals> i use regular ubuntu, but i want to try out the time tracking software known as 'Charm' i've used ktimetracker before, but i read that charm is better.  i'm wondering how can i install charm ?
[01:48] <andygraybeals> it says it is a part of the kde playground.   is there a package i can install?
[02:12] <zucken> hola
[02:13] <zucken> hay alguien aaa
[02:22] <mark___> Hey there. I was hoping someone could walk me through how to install Ventrilo on Linux?
[02:22] <mark___> er
[02:22] <mark___> Kubuntu
[02:23] <mark___> !ventrilo
[02:31] <mark___> Hey there. I was hoping someone could walk me through how to install Ventrilo on Linux?
[02:39] <KimLaroux> mark___, this? http://www.ventrilo.com/download.php
[02:39] <mark___> Yeah
[02:40] <KimLaroux> do you want a client or a server?
[02:40] <mark___> KimLaroux: Client
[02:40] <KimLaroux> there doesn't seem to be a native one
[02:40] <mark___> I'm trying to figure out how to get it to work in Wine
[02:41] <KimLaroux> Ah, that's a different story
[02:43] <KimLaroux> mark___, I can't help you since I have no experience with wine, but google "ventrilo wine" brings up many pages, including topics on Ubuntu forums
[02:44] <mark___> None of them have been of much help at all. I tried installing it via wine myself and now wine says my c: drive doesn't exist and won't let me try to install Ventrilo.
[06:43] <noaXess> morning
[07:16] <jmut> hi folks. I read some topics in forums about sound being too low but couldn't really find a solution. Using kubuntu and max sound is definately not so loud. Any pointers?
[07:17] <westmi> get some self-powered speakers like I did?
[09:30] <soee> how can i uninstall plasmoid via terminal ?
[09:30] <soee> the plasmoid was build from source
[09:31] <kbroulik> soee: use plasmapkg
[09:31] <kbroulik> plasmapkg -r <name>
[09:31] <szal> how did you install it in the 1st place?
[09:31] <kbroulik> szal: valid question ;D
[09:32] <soee> szal, make install :)
[09:33] <soee> kbroulik, can i list all installed plasmoids ?
[09:33] <szal> soee: in that case, 'make uninstall' in the source tree
[09:40] <kbroulik> soee: sure, plasmapkg --list ;)
[09:41] <kbroulik> and to view them plasmoidviewer <name>
[09:41] <soee> kbroulik, thank you
[10:14] <kbroulik> hm weird, my system is so sluggish o.O
[10:38] <chazwoza> hey all .... ii
[10:38] <chazwoza> i'm running the latest kubuntu. is it possible to add files to my desktop, like in windows or gnome?
[10:39] <chazwoza> and add shortcuts etc?
[10:41] <szal> shortcuts - yes, sort of..  files - no, but there's the FolderView widget, which you can place as many on your desktop as you wish
[10:42] <chazwoza> hmm
[10:42] <chazwoza> folderview is ugly
[10:42] <chazwoza> imo anyway
[10:43] <James147> chazwoza: just drag and drop ^^
[10:44] <James147> chazwoza: or you can switch to folder view layout form the dekstop settings... though you wont be able to drag widgets onto the desktop anymore
[10:45] <James147> szal: and you can just drag files/folders to the desktop ^^
[10:45] <James147> (creates an icon widget that basically links to that file/folder)
[10:46] <James147> chachan: and folder view is only as ugly as your theme makes it :)
[10:46] <szal> James147: that must be a relatively new development then, I know that it wasn't possible in the early days of KDE4
[10:47] <James147> working here on 4.7, and I know it worked in 4.6 and probally 4.5 as well
[10:47] <chazwoza> James147: thanks
[10:47] <James147> chazwoza:  ^^ even :)
[10:48] <James147> chachan: and folder view is only as ugly as your theme makes it :)
[10:48] <James147> :p
[10:48] <chazwoza> haha
[10:48] <chachan> =/
[10:48]  * szal never missed desktop icons
[10:48] <chazwoza> i cant find the setting to change folder view
[10:48] <chazwoza> i like to have files on my desktop
[10:48]  * James147 hasnt either
[10:48] <chazwoza> ones that im currently working on
[10:48] <chazwoza> then i archive them when i'm not working any more
[10:48] <James147> chazwoza: you can still drag files there ^^ and folder view is allot more felxable
[10:49] <James147> (ie allows multiple different folders to be viewed at once eather then just one)
[10:49] <chazwoza> where in desktop settings do i find it?
[10:49] <James147> Veiw > layout
[10:50] <chazwoza> aha
[10:50] <chazwoza> brilliant
[10:50] <chazwoza> thanks
[10:50] <chazwoza> this is great :)
[10:50] <chazwoza> and i can still use widgets
[10:52] <James147> oo... you can :p
[10:52] <James147> not seen that before... though i havent used it much :)
[10:53] <chazwoza> v happy with this
[10:55] <jillcee> kubuntu or ubuntu?
[10:56] <chazwoza> kubuntu
[10:56] <James147> jillcee: kubuntu...
[10:56] <szal> whole sentences?
[10:56] <jillcee> What are the differences in them?
[10:57] <James147> jillcee: kubuntu use kde as the desktop envroment (and kde applications by default) and ubuntu uses gnome/unity and gnome applications by default
[10:58] <jillcee> I don't know what kde or gnome/unity is James.
[10:58] <James147> jillcee: you can install gnome and kde side by side on either system if you want (by installing kubuntudesktop or ubuntu-desktop respcitivly)
[10:58] <James147> jillcee: they are the desktop envroments used by either system... best way to find out which you like is to try them both
[10:59] <chazwoza> jillcee is playing dumb surely!
[10:59] <James147> chazwoza: people who have never used linux before might not know
[10:59] <James147> (ie almost everyone)
[10:59] <chazwoza> true
[11:00] <jillcee> I'm not playing dumb.. my disks are on order.. both ubuntu and kubuntu
[11:00] <jillcee> So gnome and kde are just graphics
[11:01] <James147> jillcee: i would advise installing one and they installing kubuntu-desktop or ubuntu-desktop after the main system is installed.... then you can switch bettween the envrioments by selecting one at the login screen
[11:01] <James147> jillcee: more then just graphics, the behave differently
[11:02] <James147> have different ideas about how things should be done etc..
[11:02] <jillcee> contacts microsoft.. hehe.. i ordered the wrong disks
[11:03]  * James147 advies trying them both out for your self and using the one you like more
[11:04] <jillcee> okay James
[11:13] <jillcee> James.. what kind of web browser do you use in kubuntu?
[11:20] <James147> jillcee: chromium
[11:21] <James147> jillcee: firefox is also availble ^^ as well as kdes konqueror
[11:22]  * James147 dosnt like the default rekonq ^^ crashes far to often... have no idea why kubuntu made it the default
[11:23]  * szal uses Firefox
[11:37] <Duolos> I'm running Kubuntu 11.04.  Recently, however, the desktop effects just stopped working (the notification says it was shut down by another application).  How do I get them permanently reenabled?
[11:38] <jillcee> Thank you James and everyone.. when i get kubuntu installed.. i'm come visit again.
[11:38] <jillcee> Have a great day!
[11:42] <lethu> Duolos, go to System Settings, then Desktop Effects
[11:42] <lethu> there should be a button for enabling the effects
[11:42] <Duolos> lethu: Yeah, I did that.  That's when the notification tells me they've been shut off by another application.
[11:43] <Duolos> lethu: I press Alt-Shift-F12 to re-enable them and it shows they're enabled in System Settings, but they don't actually work.
[11:43] <lethu> Duolos, what graphical program do you have running?
[11:43] <lethu> programs*
[11:44] <Duolos> lethu: None.  This happens at startup.
[11:44] <Duolos> lethu: I don't have anything running at startup other than the core KDE services
[11:45] <lethu> Duolos, are you using the proprietary drivers or default ones?
[11:45] <Duolos> lethu: The default, open drivers
[11:45] <naftilos76> hi as you know there are three ways to configure QT in Kubuntu Xrender, Raster and OpenGL. Xrender & Raster work but OpenGL does not. I tried OpenGL in my laptop and now i can not see any windows in X session. Is there a way to configure QT back to raster through a terminal?
[11:45] <lethu> Duolos, did you try the proprietary ones?
[11:46] <Duolos> lethu: No.  It all worked flawlessly when I installed Kubuntu.  Just a day or two ago, it stopped.  I don't recall installing anything other than the JavaSDK
[11:46] <Duolos> err JDK
[11:47] <Duolos> lethu: The notification says that the desktop effects have been suspended by another application but doesn't say WHICH application.  Any way to find out?
[11:48] <lethu> Duolos, I think there's a command for finding which apps interact with which others but can't remember it right now
[11:48] <Duolos> lethu: Alright, no problem.  Thanks for your help.  Obviously it isn't an emergency; I'll get to it another time.  Thanks again!
[11:49] <lethu> Duolos, try running "top" in terminal and see if there's anything suspicious
[11:49] <lethu> Duolos, yw
[11:49] <naftilos76> anyone?
[11:55] <naftilos76> Does anybody know how to configure QT options Xrender, Raster or OpenGL through terminal?

[12:12] <naftilos76> Does anybody know how to configure QT options Xrender, Raster or OpenGL through terminal?

[16:05] <[DeVil-BoY]> i'll try
[16:09] <[DeVil-BoY]> trying to get improved performance on my graphics card which is a 915GM intel onboard, when i run glxinfo | grep direct, it tells me that direct rendering is not enabled. also on the xrog.0.log it tells me that it fails to load. I have changed the xorg.conf file and it has improved a bit, i.e no more screen flickering.
[16:11] <[DeVil-BoY]> but i'm trying to solve the issue that i'm having video files playing, on a reboot they will play for a few seconds then black no video image just sound. So i thought it would be related to direct rendering which is not enabled
[16:11] <kailo> what's the quickest way to disable visual effects in kubuntu 11?
[16:12] <kailo> I'm on a 5200fx pci card and running into a lot of issues
[16:12] <kailo> is there some config file in particular that is ideal to hit up from vim?
[16:14] <kailo> alternatively is there some command line tool for nvidia drivers, or will apt-get be sufficient?
[16:14] <James147> kailo: alt+shit+F12 will toggle the desktop effects on and off
[16:15] <James147> kailo: you can disable them in systemsettings > desktop effects
[16:15] <James147> ^^ shift :)
[16:15] <kailo> lol, thanks
[16:15] <kailo> that worked
[16:19] <kailo> James147: hmm the nvidia driver seems to be 'activated' but not in use.. stuck with 640x480 still
[16:20] <kailo> James147: might that be because I'm connected to my display through a kvm?

[18:20] <genii-around> Dennis_: If you have some question regarding your Kubuntu, it's good to just ask the channel in general. Then someone who knows about your question may take it up :)
[18:21] <genii-around> Ah, impatience.

[22:38] <BarkingFish> mero: if you want the twitter plasmoid, i think you can download it from the add widgets section on your toolbar
[22:39] <BarkingFish> actually, no you can't.  It's not in the list of plasmoids available.  Let me go hunt it down for you.

[23:51] <bodom> Hi there. I'm experiencing damn slow file transfer on kubuntu, any of you know how to fix it? File transfer from console (mv) is really much faster!
[23:52] <cmullinax> Good evening
[23:52] <bodom> For comparisin, mv from console for a 700Mb file tooks about 20 min, copying it from dolphin tooks about 7 hours
[23:52] <szal> bodom: transfer between what?
[23:53] <cmullinax> Has anyone expereinced an issue with 11.04 on Lion and the recovery HD mac partition showing up on desktop?
[23:53] <bodom> szal: From a folder to another. The destination folder is part of a cifs mount
[23:53] <cmullinax> Clarify: Recovery HD partition showing up on Mac site
[23:53] <cmullinax> side
[23:53] <szal> 20 mins for 700 MB over CIFS?  you gotta be kidding..
[23:54]  * szal moves ~350 MB files over Gbit ethernet in 5-10 seconds
[23:55] <bodom> szal: No, that's real, guess that's because destination folder is encrypted server-side with strong encryption.
[23:55] <bodom> szal: anyway, 20 mins are fine, 7 hours is a pain
[23:55]  * szal blames the encryption
[23:56] <szal> no experience w/ that, sorry
[23:56] <szal> cmullinax: "11.04 on Lion"?
[23:56] <cmullinax> Ubuntu install on a mac running MacOS 10.7 (lion)
[23:57] <cmullinax> Apple includes a hidden backup partition for the OS
[23:58] <cmullinax> It's not visible after the unbuntu install
[23:58] <cmullinax> *now
[23:58] <szal> kind-of Wubi for Mac?  never heard of
[23:58] <bodom> szal: ty anyway
