[00:09] <Linkmaster> See point 12 for you're specific problem
[01:26] <SubCool> isnt there a way to edit grub's lines?
[01:28] <Lithos84> SubCool : Yes: kdesudo kate /boot/grub/grub.cfg
[01:33] <well_laid_lawn> it's better to edit the files in /etc/grub.d
[01:33] <well_laid_lawn> !grub
[01:34] <Lithos84> !grub1
[01:36] <SubCool> i got grub 2.. and - no way..

[11:43] <oal> When I adjust the volume, the volume doesn't change anymore. It goes off if the slider is all the way to the bottom, but it's full throttle otherwise. What has happened?

[12:20] <BluesKaj> Hiyas all

[14:53] <yxf007007> hi
[15:03] <StFS> hello, can I upgrade to kubuntu 11.10 through the package management system somehow?
[15:12] <StFS> hmm... I found something called kubuntu-devel-release-upgrade which I assume does what I want...
[15:13] <StFS> but it doesn't actually tell me that it's installing the oneiric packages... but I imagine it's safe to assume that right?
[15:13] <StFS> nevermind... just checked /etc/apt/sources.list and that's the case
[15:24] <shane2peru> Is there any address book app that will sync with my Google Contacts, and allow me to have them 'offline' on my computer?  does kaddressbook do this?
[15:26] <semitones> a really odd thing happened when I logged into kubuntu for the first time
[15:26] <semitones> first the screen went all blue with just an icon of a hard drive in the center
[15:27] <semitones> then when I interacted with it, it went black, and then turned white, with only a pointer
[15:27] <semitones> I had to use a virtual terminal to get out of it.
[15:27] <semitones> what is supposed to happen when you log in?
[15:30] <OerHeks> StFS, dev release is the Beta Oneiric 11.10, it is not safe for production machines, yet.
[15:31] <OerHeks> semitones, after hdd icon you get 3 more icons, then you should get loginscreen, if you did not enable automatic login
[15:31] <semitones> OerHeks: you login again after logging in at gdm?
[15:32] <StFS> OerHeks: thanks... do you know how the upgrade has been going generally for those who have tried?
[15:32] <OerHeks> StFS, the upgrade can take hours, upon howmuch applications you have installed
[15:32] <OerHeks> it should go fine,
[15:33] <OerHeks> semitones, no login happens only once
[15:42] <giantpune> woohoo.  the system does work.  i made a feature request not too long ago to make the terminal more user friendly  and today i got an email saying that it was all taken care of :)
[15:42] <giantpune> https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=280838
[15:43] <OerHeks> nice, giantpune
[15:44] <giantpune> when 4.8 comes out and youre dragging files into your konsole, and its super user-friendly, you can think of me
[15:50] <TheLastProject> Good idea, giant
[16:16] <jkoltner> Say ,does anyone know how to disable the mouse wheel history feature in Konsole?  I'll sometimes inadvertently hit the right-edge of my mousepad while hitting the space bar, which also acts like the mouse wheel and thereby obliterates what I've been typing...
[16:17] <shadeslayer> jkoltner: you can disable the scrollback
[16:18] <shadeslayer> right click inside the konsole window and under configure scrollback
[16:19] <jkoltner> Thanks, I'll try that
[16:37] <slipp3d> I just updated to 4.7.1 and now I can't get evolution to run unless I run it from a konsole... what do I need to do to fix this?
[16:38] <semitones> my friend had a search bar in the top of his kde desktop that let him search for applications or files -- what's the name of that widget?
[16:55] <Jimbo99> .
[16:55] <Jimbo99> are there real ppl in here?
[16:56] <Jimbo99> usually find 1200 ppl in a ubuntu-esce chat channel
[17:04] <slipp3d> I just updated to 4.7.1 and now I can't get evolution to run unless I run it from a konsole... what do I need to do to fix this?
[17:08] <qtfan>  Hey guys. How can I make the tabs in the task_manager to always fill up the height of the panel. It is not maximizing the space as  can be seen here : http://i.imgur.com/wwoRd.png
[17:09] <BluesKaj> slipp3d, try running it in krunner , alt+F2 as kdesudo
[17:09] <qtfan> I had also forced the maximum row of the task_manager to 1 but it seems that there are still 2 allotted rows. Same screenshot: http://i.imgur.com/wwoRd.png
[17:10] <slipp3d> BluesKaj, that works .. but it's setting up the client under the root account
[17:10] <slipp3d> not mine
[17:18] <qtfan> oww... i just found out that on a new workspace(s), the height of the task bar is maximized....weird... X_X http://i.imgur.com/HMYVZ.png
[17:29] <BluesKaj> slipp3d, then just try it without sudo , you should have default user permissions to the app
[17:30] <slipp3d> it tries to start and I get an icon in the task manager but then it closes itself with no error
[17:31] <slipp3d> BluesKaj, ... but if I run it from with in a konsole it starts up with out any issues... this is what is in the konsole while it's running .... http://pastebin.com/4mDbg7Dq
[17:57] <espears> hellow!
[17:58] <Mattyx08> Hi all
[18:01] <kbroulik> I don’t know what they always say against kubuntu but the KDE on my arch is much slower and less smooth than the one on kubuntu
[18:02] <espears_> hello?
[18:03] <espears> hello?
[18:13] <maniak> Русские черти есть?
[18:13] <Pici> !ru
[18:16] <espears> anyone can help with kubuntu?
[18:19] <BluesKaj> slipp3d, evolution is a gtk app, wondering if you have some missing gtk libs , if you are on kde since this kubuntu ...but i'm not much help since I don't use either kontact or evolution.
[18:21] <slipp3d> well i would like to not use evolution ... but mapi isn't in kmail yet ... and the web based client sucks
[18:22] <slipp3d> but why would it launch from the term ?  you would think that those missing libs would still cause issues
[18:27] <BluesKaj> slipp3d, whynot try this , it might pull in the missing libs , sudo apt-get install --reinstall evolution
[18:27] <slipp3d> I just did that ...
[18:27] <slipp3d> and i reinstalled all the extra bits that are attached to evolution as well
[18:50] <slipp3d> BluesKaj, well that didn't do much ...
[19:01] <jmichaelx> did anyone else install some kde 4.6.5 updates today (from the kubuntu ppa, and wind up with a COMPLETELY hosed KDE desktop?
[19:03] <jmichaelx> and when i say hosed, i mean utterly ytashed.
[19:03] <jmichaelx> trashed*
[19:10] <lsv> does anyone knows how to mount a hfsplus hd read/write?
[20:13] <jmut> hi I had skype like hour ago..now when I try to login I get             Another skype instance may exists.         There is definately no other instance on my PC .... anyone else experiencing this?
[20:15] <OerHeks> jmut, maybe skype is still running ?
[20:24] <jmut> restart helped. I guess some stalled .pid file or something. thanks all
[20:25] <OerHeks> jmut, fine
[20:26] <macer1> btw. i am running kde 4.7.1 now
[20:26] <macer1> its not that bad
[20:27] <OerHeks> kded --version
[20:28] <macer1> OerHeks: ?
[20:28] <OerHeks> Qt: 4.7.2 KDE Development Platform: 4.7.00 (4.7.0) so what am i running now ? 4.7 i guess ?
[20:28] <macer1> yes
[20:28] <macer1> kded4 --version
[20:28] <macer1> Qt: 4.7.4
[20:28] <macer1> KDE Development Platform: 4.7.1 (4.7.1)
[20:28] <macer1> KDE Daemon: $Id$
[20:28] <macer1> i have 4.7.1 :D
[20:29] <OerHeks> the command above is incorrect, it should be >  kded4 --version
[20:29] <OerHeks> ah
[20:29] <OerHeks> how do i get 4.7.1 ?
[20:30] <OerHeks> it is not in the backports.
[20:31] <macer1> you must compile it
[20:32] <B4ckBOne> hey i have an compiling problem :) can you help?
[20:32] <macer1> I was joking, i am running oneric xD
[20:32] <macer1> B4ckBOne: what exactly?
[20:32] <B4ckBOne> trying to build kaffeine, but it does not find my libxine-dev which i installed from yaVDR ppa
[20:32] <B4ckBOne>  Could NOT find XINE 1.1.1 or greater (missing: XINE_VERSION_OK)
[20:33] <macer1> ubu version?
[20:33] <B4ckBOne> cmake runs FindXine.cmake which fails
[20:33] <B4ckBOne> Kubuntu natty
[20:33] <macer1> hmm...
[20:33] <macer1> check you package version
[20:33] <B4ckBOne> its located there  /usr/share/kde4/apps/cmake/modules/FindXine.cmake
[20:33] <macer1> apt-cache policy libxine-dev
[20:34] <B4ckBOne> aptitude reports version as: Version: 1.2.0~hg20110831.1320-0yavdr0~natty
[20:34] <B4ckBOne> with your command:   Installiert: 1.2.0~hg20110831.1320-0yavdr0~natty
[20:35] <B4ckBOne> macer1: any suggestions?
[20:36] <macer1> No ideas.
[20:36] <macer1> ee
[20:36] <macer1> you are trying to compile a windows version i think
[20:36] <B4ckBOne> macer1: i think its the ~blabla stuff that breaks the version check
[20:37] <B4ckBOne> macer1: nope dont think im compiling a windows version .. downloaded kaffeine from kaffeine.kde.org as tar.gz ball
[20:38] <B4ckBOne> macer1, you know regex stuff?
[20:38] <macer1> a little ;D
[20:38] <B4ckBOne> thats the regex the FindXine.cmake runs:  string(REGEX REPLACE "[0-9]\\.[0-9]\\." "" XINE_BUGFIX_VERSION ${XINE_VERSION})
[20:39] <B4ckBOne> how can i modify to truncate the ~blabla version stuff?
[20:39] <macer1> delete the check for regex
[20:39] <macer1> so it will run successfull
[20:40] <B4ckBOne> so what would the line look like?
[20:40] <macer1> !version | B4ckBOne
[20:40] <macer1> just testing :D
[20:40] <macer1> hmm
[20:40] <macer1> its not this line
[20:40] <B4ckBOne> maybe this line could be modified:  if("${XINE_VERSION}" VERSION_GREATER "1.1.0")
[20:41] <B4ckBOne> the if statement
[20:41] <macer1> if(true)
[20:41] <macer1> ?
[20:41] <B4ckBOne> hmm let me try :-)
[20:42] <B4ckBOne> now it tells me some general error
[20:42] <B4ckBOne> CMake Warning (dev) at /usr/share/kde4/apps/cmake/modules/FindXine.cmake:47 (if):
[20:43] <macer1> ok
[20:43] <macer1> it wasnt good idea
[20:43] <macer1> i dont know cmake
[20:43] <B4ckBOne> any idea is most welcome ;_)
[20:44] <jmichaelx> i just installed a round of updates to kde 4.6.5 from the kubuntu ppa, and now my desktop is completely trashed. does anyone here know anything about this?
[20:44] <macer1> I have to go. Its nearly 23.00 in my timezone :D

[20:47] <macer1> i have to go
[20:47] <B4ckBOne> kk cu
[20:56] <BarkingFish> Guys, is there any way of configuring the monitor to run at a different size, one not specified in krandrtray?
[20:56] <B4ckBOne> BarkingFish: xorg-conf?
[20:56] <B4ckBOne> nvidia-settings might help too
[20:56] <BarkingFish> Mine either gives me 1024*768, or 1280*1024.  What I want is 1152*864(or 846, can't recall which)
[20:57] <BarkingFish> 1024 is too cluttered, 1280 is far too tiny to read.
[20:58] <B4ckBOne> graphics adapter manufaturer?
[21:00] <BarkingFish> B4ckBOne, not entirely sure, I think it's ATI, I'll check in lspci
[21:00] <BarkingFish> yep, it is.
[21:00] <BarkingFish> 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc RV370 5B60 [Radeon X300 (PCIE)]
[21:01] <BarkingFish> actually I have 2 in lspci
[21:01] <mehdi_> #postfix
[21:01] <BarkingFish> how do I know which I'm using?
[21:01] <B4ckBOne> hmm i dont know about ati .. and neither of dual adapters .. sorry ^^
[21:01] <BarkingFish> the other line says: 01:00.1 Display controller: ATI Technologies Inc RV370 [Radeon X300SE]
[21:12] <BarkingFish> !info zekr
[21:18] <BarkingFish> Anyone know what's causing this please?  I know I don't have any tools open at the moment, like kpackagekit or aptitude... http://paste.ubuntu.com/689525/
[22:14] <jmichaelx> BarkingFish: did you get your situation resolved?
[22:16] <BarkingFish> jmichaelx, which one? The display or the error with sudo  apt-get dist-upgrade?
[22:17] <jmichaelx> the apt-get problem.... it looks like you may possibly have synaptic, or some other graphical package manager open. is that possible?
[22:18] <BarkingFish> jmichaelx, no, I haven't managed to resolve this yet.  I have nothing else package-ways open.  ps aux confirms this
[22:18] <BarkingFish> possibly could be a stale lock file, but I don't want to remove in case it's not
[22:19] <jmichaelx> hmm, yea, stale lock probably. would be interesting to know why
[22:32] <Guest9078> hi all
[22:33] <BarkingFish> hi Guest9078
[22:34] <SubCool> installing kubuntu is a PIA
[22:34] <BarkingFish> SubCool, maybe for you :)
[22:35] <BarkingFish> If you're having problems, we'll try and help you.
[22:35] <SubCool> BarkingFish, nah- its stupid stuff. Idk what kinda system im on 64 or not.. and my flah drives just keep screwing up
[22:35] <SubCool> unetboot sucks
[22:36] <BarkingFish> We may be able to figure out what type of machine you have.  What did it ship with as an OS, and do you know what processor it has in?
[22:37] <SubCool> BarkingFish, dont worry abou it- im just bitching. im just tired of doing the same shit over and over
[22:38] <BarkingFish> Well if we can figure it out, you'll only have to do that **** one more time :)
[22:49] <BarkingFish> hi valorie :)  How did the meeting go last night?
[23:01] <SubCool> Ok-- im getting pissed with this shit
[23:01] <SubCool> I just installed a script ISSUED BY THE GUIDE< that STILL DOES NOT WORK
[23:02] <OerHeks> SubCool, what script ?
[23:02] <OerHeks> is it executable ?
[23:02] <SubCool> hold on
[23:04] <SubCool> echo "/usr/bin/x11vnc -forever -rfbport 5900 -rfbauth ~/.vnc/x11vnc.pass -o ~/.vnc/x11vnc.log -loopbg -display :0" > ~/.kde/Autostart/x11vnc.sh
[23:04] <SubCool> chmod +x ~/.kde/Autostart/x11vnc.sh
[23:04] <SubCool> it creates a loop and hoses my system

[23:22] <hippo> hello i am haveing networking dificultys for some reason i can connect to all wifi but my house i know the password is right and i know its a good conection because i when i boot up windows i get on fine and i have another computer with juli cloud and that computer is conected fine also
[23:25] <lynnew2003> hi
[23:29] <BarkingFish> hippo, Hi!
[23:29] <BarkingFish> Right, you're having problems connecting to your house Wifi, correct?
[23:29] <SubCool> ANyone VNC or 64Bit LiveUSB?
[23:29] <SubCool> how can you tell what bit ur current system is running under
[23:30] <BarkingFish> Easiest way?  What type of processor do you have in the computer?
[23:30] <SubCool> well, i know what it is- but.. i installed a 32bit kubuntu on it- so i wanna see what it says
[23:30] <BarkingFish> hippo, Do you know what encryption your wifi at home is using?  WEP, WPA or WPA2?
[23:31] <hippo> the password is just 4192883530 im pretty sure its a wep right ?
[23:31] <BarkingFish> hippo, do you have network manager running?
[23:32] <BarkingFish> If you do, that will tell you what type of encryption the connection uses.
[23:32] <hippo> yeh i am actually conected fine at the naibors
[23:32] <SubCool> BarkingFish,
[23:32] <BarkingFish> Right, if you open network manager - you'll see a list of the available connections, hippo
[23:33] <hippo> ok
[23:33] <BarkingFish> there should be a shield next to the connection - it'll either be green, yellow or red
[23:33] <hippo> yellow
[23:33] <BarkingFish> green is WPA or WPA2, yellow is WEP
[23:33] <hippo> ok so its wep
[23:34] <BarkingFish> right.  And you cannot get it connected to your home wifi?  that is odd.  Let me look at this for a second, be right back
[23:35] <BarkingFish> hippo, Can you open the network manager, and click on Manage connections please?
[23:36] <BarkingFish> When the manager opens, click on your connection in the center box, and then click "Edit" on the right
[23:40] <hippo> ok
[23:40] <hippo> ok
[23:41] <BarkingFish> right.  You should have a box up which shows the details of the connection- can you click on the center tab marked "Wireless Security" please?
[23:41] <hippo> yeh i got that and i am there
[23:42] <BarkingFish> Once you have this, can you tell me what you have listed for - Key type  and   Authentication please?
[23:43] <hippo> passprhase for 128bit and authentication
[23:43] <BarkingFish> What is listed under authentication? Open System or Shared Key?
[23:43] <hippo> opensytem
[23:44] <BarkingFish> ok, can you change the settings to "Key type: Hex or ASCII key for 64 or 128 bit" and "Authenticaton: Shared Key" please?
[23:45] <hippo> alright got it
[23:45] <BarkingFish> ok.  Put the password in, and click OK
[23:46] <hippo> ok
[23:46] <BarkingFish> hippo, in most cases with WEP, it's trial and error.  It may be a combination of those settings
[23:46] <hippo> ok so just kinda mess with it
[23:46] <BarkingFish> could be Passphrase for 128 Bit, but authenticating as a Shared Key
[23:46] <BarkingFish> yeah
[23:47] <riff> how do you set up cube on kde?
[23:47] <hippo> well uh thanks for ur time i apreciate it i realy do ive  been using ubuntu for a wile now and didnt care to much for unity so thought ide try something new so got the iso for kubuntu and have been like it so far exexpt no dropbox realy wish i could get dropbox
[23:48] <BarkingFish> hippo, you're welcome.  Most of what I dabble in is Networking, and I'm happy to help where I can.  If you're still stuck, I'm in here most nights, so drop by and I'll see what I can do.
[23:49] <claydoh> hippo: drobpox is available, look for kfilebox
[23:49] <hippo> ooooh ok sounds good
[23:49] <SubCool> someone?
[23:50] <claydoh> hippo: it may not be in a repo, but websearch will find it
[23:50] <hippo> oh ok
[23:50] <hippo> cause i just searched it and it wasnt
[23:51] <claydoh> SubCool: ?
[23:51] <SubCool> liveusb64bit
[23:51] <SubCool> i cant seem to make one
[23:51] <SubCool> every time i do- it boots and comes to a prompt saysing boot error
[23:53] <claydoh> no problems for me, what you use to make the usb stick?
[23:53] <claydoh> SubCool: I usually use usb-creator, I seldom have problems
[23:54] <claydoh> could be a bad iso download as well
[23:55] <claydoh> and if your usb drive is one of those pesky U3 ones, those don't work without uninstalling the U3 bits
[23:55] <SubCool> can u create a 64bit LIveUSB off of 32bit kubuntu?
[23:55] <George_> Hey guys I'm trying to install a .deb from my install disk but apt says to insert the disk and it's inserted
[23:58] <hippo> hey i forget who helped me but it worked and i thank you again lol i was getting fustrated ealier in the day and u saved me a headache keep up the good work man
[23:59] <yulissayanely> hola
