| jmichaelx | Kimlaroux: i don't know the answer to that, for sure.... is there a reason you would prefer adobe reader over okular? | 00:00 |
| Kimlaroux | uhm I'm not installing adobe reader... do they even have a linux reader? | 00:01 |
| jmichaelx | lol... ok, i imsread your post | 00:01 |
| Kimlaroux | I'm installing http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/flashplayer11.html | 00:01 |
| jmichaelx | i misread* | 00:02 |
| jmichaelx | Kimlaroux: in this case, i am also not too sure. of course you could get by just fine by only copying libflashplayer.so to the appropriate directory. | 00:03 |
| Kimlaroux | yeah I did that already, I'm just having fun here =P | 00:03 |
| jmichaelx | Kimlaroux: if i am understanding your question... yes, you could just manually copy files to their corresponding locations on your file system.... although you might want to consider using the ppa that yofel_ had recommended. | 00:05 |

| Arath | I'm trying to install wireless usb driver. But the instructions are very hard to understand, it tells me to first "set the "MODE = STA" in Makefile and choose the TARGET to Linux by set "TARGET = LINUX". Define the linux kernel source include file path LINUX_SRC. | 00:36 |
| LINKSWORD2 | Hello everybody. I've run into a rather annoying problem... | 00:41 |
| LINKSWORD2 | I've updated to Kubuntu 11.10 and now my window titlebars and -/+/x buttons are gone.... Or at least invisible. | 00:42 |
| jmichaelx | Arath: what chipset does your wireless adapter use? | 00:50 |
| jmichaelx | LINKSWORD2: could be you need to switch or update themes or window decorations | 00:51 |
| LINKSWORD2 | Fun... | 00:51 |
| jmichaelx | LINKSWORD2: not a very difficult thing, if that is where the problem actually is | 00:52 |
| LINKSWORD2 | Well, the reason I like this theme is because it's simplistic, thin, and carries good transparency. | 00:53 |
| LINKSWORD2 | Upgrading the theme will suck. | 00:53 |
| avihay_ | How do I upgrade my KDE from 4.7.0 to 4.7.1? I've gone to ppa:kubuntu-ppa/backports and looked around, ant the packages there are still 4.7.0 | 00:54 |
| === avihay_ is now known as avihay | ||
| jmichaelx | LINKSWORD2: it could be that your very theme has been updated | 00:55 |
| LINKSWORD2 | How would I find that out? | 00:55 |
| LINKSWORD2 | The theme is called "Dark Perfection" | 00:55 |
| jmichaelx | avihay: i do not think 4.7.1 will wind up in that ppa. you'll have to wait for kubuntu 11.10 | 00:56 |
| jmichaelx | LINKSWORD2: i don't know. do you not know where you got that theme? | 00:56 |
| Arath | jmichaelx: looking up the chipset, suprisingly bad infor on producer site | 00:56 |
| avihay | :-< | 00:57 |
| LINKSWORD2 | Yeah, the system's theme manager. | 00:57 |
| LINKSWORD2 | Get More... And then I searched for it. | 00:57 |
| jmichaelx | LINKSWORD2: do that again, and see whether or not it's been updates | 00:57 |
| jmichaelx | updated* | 00:57 |
| avihay | so this is just wrong: http://deviceday.com/software/kde-sc-4-7-1-is-available-for-download.html | 00:58 |
| jmichaelx | Arath: is your adapter PCI, usb, mini-pcie? | 00:58 |
| Arath | jmichaelx: usb | 00:59 |
| jmichaelx | avihay: no, it is correct. but that announcement says nothing about pre-compiled packages for kubuntu. you could download the source and compile it yourself, if you wanted | 00:59 |
| jmichaelx | Arath: what is the output of 'lsusb | grep -i adapter'? | 01:01 |
| avihay | that makes sense, thanks | 01:01 |
| LINKSWORD2 | jmichaelx: I have tried several themes, and I still have the same problem. | 01:01 |
| Arath | jmichaelx: Ralink Technology, Corp RT2870/3070 Wireless Adapter | 01:02 |
| jmichaelx | LINKSWORD2: i'm not sure what to say. you could just play with it... change the window decoration, or just change the type of window buttons | 01:03 |
| jmichaelx | Arath: ok, and does this adapter not just work out of the box? | 01:03 |
| LINKSWORD2 | Still no good. I've tried. | 01:03 |
| Arath | jmichaelx: Sadly, it does not. And the install instructions are very clunky. | 01:03 |
| LINKSWORD2 | I'm going to switch to my other harddrive and clone 11.04 back onto this. | 01:04 |
| jmichaelx | Arath: where did you get these instructions? | 01:04 |
| LINKSWORD2 | Bye. :( | 01:04 |
| Arath | jmichaelx: from the tar.bz2 i got from the manefacturers page | 01:05 |
| jmichaelx | Arath: yes, but what lead you to look there? did you look at ubuntu documentation, or look in the forums? | 01:06 |
| Arath | jmichealx: I couldn't install it without the readme so i looked in the readme. I haven't checked any other documentation from other sources | 01:08 |
| jmichaelx | Arath: what i mean to say is that you should look at ubuntu documentation, and in places like ubuntu forums, before you go to the manufactur's site to download drivers (that will likely need to be compiled) | 01:10 |
| Arath | jmichaelx: ok, thanks | 01:10 |
| jmichaelx | Arath: it is sort of a different situation from windows, where you might go instantly to the manufacturer's site | 01:11 |
| Arath | jmichealx: yeah, i should have known. It's been some years i since i used linux | 01:12 |
| TheEvilPhoenix | how do i specify to start a program on login? | 01:19 |

| Kimlaroux | You're not curious enough =P | 01:35 |
| TheEvilPhoenix | :P | 01:36 |
| * TheEvilPhoenix searches | 01:36 | |
| Kimlaroux | it's in System settings, it depends how you have it set there | 01:36 |
| Kimlaroux | it's either the "advanced" tab or the "advanced user settings" branch | 01:36 |
| TheEvilPhoenix | and if neither exist? | 01:37 |
| TheEvilPhoenix | o.O | 01:37 |
| TheEvilPhoenix | ~/.kde/autostart? | 01:37 |
| Torch | it's in systemsettings -> system adiminstration -> startup and shutdown | 01:37 |
| TheEvilPhoenix | symlink to there or smth/ | 01:37 |
| TheEvilPhoenix | ah thanks | 01:37 |
| Torch | TheEvilPhoenix: yes, that should work, too | 01:37 |
| Kimlaroux | I think you have to enable the advanced settings, but I can't find where | 01:38 |
| Torch | we don't have advanced settings in system settings any more | 01:38 |
| Torch | since 4.6 already, i believe. | 01:39 |
| Torch | speaking of the tab | 01:39 |
| Kimlaroux | Oh really? That's good to know | 01:39 |
| fontis | lol | 01:40 |
| Torch | of course the settings themselves are all still there. it's just reorganized so that there's no need for two tabs now. | 01:40 |

| TheLastProject | Can someone recommend me a good IM client that works with MSN and Skype? | 11:03 |
| TheLastProject | I keep having various issues with Kopete =/ | 11:04 |
| KIAaze | there is none which works with skype | 11:07 |
| KIAaze | there is a skype plugin for pidgin and maybe other IMs, but it still requires skype to run | 11:07 |
| KIAaze | it's just an interface to skype | 11:07 |
| KIAaze | otherwise, for MSN, a lot work quite well | 11:07 |
| KIAaze | I use pidgin | 11:08 |
| KIAaze | but I'm under gnome at the moment, otherwise I might use kopete or something else. | 11:08 |
| KIAaze | empathy is also worth using because it seems to be the only one under gnome which uses the keyring to store passwords (something which people have been asking for on pidgin since years but never happened) | 11:10 |

| pythonsnake | Hello! | 15:04 |
| tonymc | hi | 15:27 |
| tonymc | pythonsnake problems? *trollface* | 15:27 |
| pythonsnake | tonymc: yes | 15:29 |
| pythonsnake | why trollface :( | 15:29 |
| tonymc | nevermind, what is it? | 15:29 |
| pythonsnake | just a curiosity question - why rekonq as default browser ? | 15:31 |
| tonymc | i think it's because it's a default browser in KDE now, though i might be wrong | 15:31 |
| tonymc | maybe because there weren't any QtWebKit-based browsers | 15:32 |
| pythonsnake | Ah ok | 15:32 |
| tonymc | i use firefox anyway | 15:32 |
| tonymc | i'd use rekonq but it sucks in a number of departments, and whatever ungodly mess firefox has become recently, it still beats any other browser for me | 15:33 |
| pythonsnake | beside that how can I check if a directory is encrypte ? | 15:33 |
| pythonsnake | I find rekonq great :) | 15:33 |
| tonymc | if you can read it - it's not encrypted :-) | 15:33 |
| ikonia | pythonsnake: did you encrypt the directory ? | 15:34 |
| tonymc | if you mean which dir is mounted as an encrypted FS, then look in fstab or mounts | 15:34 |
| pythonsnake | ikonia: I think so but I want to check | 15:34 |
| ikonia | pythonsnake: how did you encypt it | 15:34 |
| tonymc | i think "mount" will give you a list of all mounted filesystems | 15:34 |
| ikonia | (or how do you think you did) | 15:34 |
| pythonsnake | ikonia: by checking a tickbox in ubuntu install | 15:35 |
| ikonia | pythonsnake: ok, so it's encypted then. | 15:35 |
| pythonsnake | tonymc: I see encrypfs | 15:35 |
| pythonsnake | tonymc: I see encryptfs* | 15:35 |
| tonymc | that means it's encrypted | 15:35 |
| tonymc | welcome to the paranoid club | 15:36 |
| pythonsnake | lol | 15:36 |
| pythonsnake | Ok let me reboot and test 4.7.1 :-) | 15:36 |

| === fishwithapipe is now known as f|shy | ||
| george_ | yofel: really? how can I do it? | 21:05 |
| claydoh | george_: yoo should be able to select a previous kernel in the grub boot menu, boot into that, then uninstall the kernel packages you installed and then remove the ppa entry from your software sources | 21:07 |
| claydoh | I am not sure if ppa-purge will remove a kernel, but you could try once you have booted into a previous kernel | 21:08 |
| george_ | claydoh: that's really odd, but using the other kernels there's a bug (wi-fi icon is displayed as wired connection). What I want to do is get the old one back, because this one replaced it... | 21:10 |
| claydoh | replaced it? kernels ususally are just added, you can't really remove a running kernel | 21:11 |
| === sythe-afk is now known as sythe | ||
| claydoh | george_: you do not get any choices in your grub menu? | 21:13 |
| george_ | claydoh: not in this case, because it's the "same" 2.6.38-11 | 21:13 |
| george_ | claydoh: as I said, the old 2.6.38-11 was replaced by this proposed 2.6.38-11 (a buch of numbers) | 21:14 |
| claydoh | george_: yesm but they still are different package versions. | 21:14 |
| * claydoh looks | 21:14 | |
| claydoh | you don't have *any* previous kernel entries in your grub boot menu? | 21:15 |
| george_ | claydoh:sure, but my options now are 2.6.38-11 (this new one), previous versions I get 2.6.38-10 and 2.6.36 | 21:16 |
| claydoh | george_: yes, you should back back to one of those first to be safe | 21:17 |
| claydoh | hmm according to the ppa page, the 2.6.38-11 kernel failed to build | 21:18 |
| claydoh | but thats irrelevent | 21:19 |
| skafti_ | how do i find a network printer from kubuntu to ubuntu ? | 21:19 |

| george_ | claydoh: ok man, I'll try it. thanks for your help. | 21:21 |
| xcv | avihay: i looked for it there, but i just found a radio button to change single-click to double-click, not to disable execution of files | 21:21 |
| xcv | avihay: what i want to do is to disable the execution of files and make kde open them instead | 21:22 |

| xcv | no problem :). Do you know how can i achieve it? | 21:24 |
| === si is now known as Guest1036 | ||
| Guest62655 | hola | 21:26 |
| xcv | how can i make kde open scripts with an editor instead of executing them as default click action? | 21:41 |

| BarkingFish | Evening guys. I have a little issue here and I'm not sure whether it's something which needs looking at, or whether it's simply my wifi playing games with me. | 21:43 |
| BarkingFish | When I connect to our local WiFi beacon using DHCP, my connection is so slow I can barely surf. I can probably view 2 light-ish web pages per minute. | 21:44 |
| === Default is now known as Guest78598 | ||
| BarkingFish | If I change to a totally static IP, my network speed goes through the roof. I can view upwards of 20 pages a minute and my IRC lag drops to about 0.1 seconds. | 21:45 |
| === Guest78598 is now known as Walex | ||
| Walex | BarkingFish: that's bizarre. perhaps a duplicate address? Or are the two IPs in different subnets? | 21:46 |
| BarkingFish | nope | 21:47 |
| Walex | BarkingFish: try 'mtr -t ....' to check delays and packet losses in both cases | 21:47 |
| BarkingFish | The base address of the beacon is 192.168.2.1, the subnet is 255.255.255.0 | 21:47 |
| BarkingFish | and I've now set myself static at 192.168.2.12 | 21:47 |
| Walex | it could be radio fluctuations, nothing to do with IP addresses. | 21:49 |
| BarkingFish | how come then? Surely DHCP and a Static IP would be subject to the same fluctuations in radio. | 21:49 |
| BarkingFish | Plus the beacon is pretty much right outside my front window, about 20ft away across my garden | 21:49 |
| Walex | BarkingFish: radio is a strange thing, and there could be interference, reflections, other equipment coming on in the 2.4 band. Sometimes some appliances come on periodically and do a burst. | 21:54 |
| Walex | BarkingFish: anyhow get 'mtr' and let it run and check delays and packet loss rates. | 21:54 |
| BarkingFish | I did let it run on my current connection, delay of 0.1 seconds, no packet loss | 21:55 |
| BarkingFish | I'm not gonna run on the DHCP tonight, now I'm stable I want to stay stable :) | 21:55 |
| meranido | Is there an channel where we can ask for help on semi-nonrelated kubuntu stuff? | 22:00 |
| xcv | how can i prevent kde from executing executable scripts when i click on them and open them instead? | 22:01 |
| pythonsnake | xcv: Settings - Configure Dolphin - Navigatoion - DOuble click | 22:10 |
| pythonsnake | meranido: here | 22:10 |
| meranido | ? | 22:11 |
| pythonsnake | !ask | meranido | 22:11 |
| ubottu | meranido: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 22:11 |
| pythonsnake | :-) | 22:11 |
| xcv | pythonsnake: thank you but what i want make single-click to open the file, not to execute it | 22:11 |
| billytwowilly | 'j #flexraid | 22:11 |
| billytwowilly | woops | 22:12 |
| pythonsnake | xcv: open like what | 22:12 |
| pythonsnake | billytwowilly: happens to everyone | 22:12 |
| meranido | !ask meranido | 22:12 |
| pythonsnake | meranido: just ask! | 22:13 |
| xcv | pythonsnake: with an editor. i use to write a few scripts and i would like to open them via alt+f2 nepomuk search, but when i click on them it executes them | 22:13 |
| pythonsnake | xcv: right click - open with... - kate | 22:13 |
| xcv | pythonsnake: i can't right click on the krunner dialog | 22:14 |
| pythonsnake | krunner ? | 22:14 |
| pythonsnake | I dont get it | 22:14 |
| xcv | pythonsnake: the alt+f2 dialog | 22:14 |
| meranido | Okay here goes: I need to create an Windows 7 USB bootable drive (cannot do it from windows with unetbootin and it wont display my formatted NTFS usb(did format the usb in ntfs because otherwise it wont boot probaly). So I only got kubuntu to do it (and no I am not abandoning linux. I just need windows to play games on. :D) | 22:15 |
| pythonsnake | xcv: kate /path/to/file | 22:16 |
| pythonsnake | meranido: hmm | 22:17 |
| xcv | pythonsnake: yes, i know that, but what i am trying to do is to use the nepomuk search function in order to find the file and click on it to open | 22:17 |
| pythonsnake | hmm | 22:18 |
| pythonsnake | never used nepomuk | 22:18 |
| pythonsnake | sorry | 22:18 |
| pythonsnake | meranido: maybe use unetbootin in kubuntu :P | 22:19 |
| meranido | I did so but unetbootin does not see the USB stick. It does if I format it as FAT32 but then it won't boot normally. | 22:19 |
| Walex | I am keeping on Kubuntu LTS 10.04, but I'd like to try to update the KDE SC on it to something newer like 4.6 and wondering if there are Kubuntu KDE SC backports | 22:19 |
| xcv | pythonsnake: no problem, do you know how can i disable the execution in dolphin when i click on them too? | 22:19 |
| pythonsnake | change default app to kate :P | 22:20 |
| dantez | thx | 22:20 |
| pythonsnake | meranido: won't boot normally ? | 22:21 |
| xcv | pythonsnake: kate is the default app, but since the file has executable permission, dolphin prefers to execute it | 22:21 |
| meranido | It get's stuck at the Unetbootin screen with that counter. | 22:21 |
| pythonsnake | xcv: chmod a=wr file | 22:21 |
| James147 | meranido: I think you can just format it, copy the contents of the usb and mark the partition as bootable | 22:22 |
| xcv | pythonsnake: but i use them in the command line, i need them to be executable (this is becoming a bit strange xd) | 22:22 |
| pythonsnake | xcv: lol | 22:22 |
| xcv | pythonsnake: ideas? XDD | 22:23 |
| pythonsnake | xcv: you want them not to be executed while being executable ? | 22:23 |
| meranido | Also the creator of unetbootin has removed the option "Show all drives" which seems to be vital for the guide i'm following. | 22:24 |
| xcv | pythonsnake: at least not as default option, or ask me as nautilus does | 22:24 |
| yofel | xcv: if it's a shell script, you should make it not-executable and run it with like 'bash path/to/script.sh' | 22:24 |
| pythonsnake | yofel: :) | 22:25 |
| pythonsnake | or sh /path/to/file | 22:25 |
| xcv | yofel: isn't there any other way, as i said before similar to nautilus' dialog | 22:26 |
| xcv | ? | 22:26 |
| yofel | hm, at least I don't know of one. I do know how nautilus does it, but IMO dolphin has the behaviour one would expect | 22:29 |
| pythonsnake | Dolphin wins. :-) | 22:29 |
| === Freejack is now known as Guest76054 | ||
| yofel | well, IIRC nautilus does it for vfat/ntfs comptibility where all files ended up being executable. Athough that's fixed in udisk these days | 22:30 |
| xcv | yofel: What nautilus does when i click an executable file, it asks me if i want to open it or execute it, and if i want to save my answer. My question is, can i do that in kde? | 22:31 |
| xcv | yofel: sorry, i misread your answers | 22:32 |
| yofel | xcv: if one looks at the file extension properties, it seems like you can adjust the left click behaviour for konqueror, probably won't have an effect for dolphin | 22:35 |
| xcv | yofel: where can i find that option? | 22:36 |
| yofel | right click on a script -> properties -> click on the wrench -> embedded | 22:36 |
| yofel | *Embedding | 22:37 |
| xcv | yofel: thank you, i found it :) | 22:38 |
| yofel | see if that changes everything, I never changed anything there | 22:38 |
| yofel | s/everything/anything/ | 22:38 |
| xcv | yofel: I have just tried clicking the file in konqueror and in dolphin. Konqueror opens it and dolphin executes it. In the end, it seems that konqueror was what i was looking for | 22:41 |
| yofel | good ol' konqueror, good that it's still there :) | 22:41 |
| xcv | yofel: yes, i started with kde4 and i had not given a chance to konqueror yet | 22:43 |
| pythonsnake | xcv: trinity | 22:44 |
| pythonsnake | !trinity | xcv | 22:44 |
| yofel | what was that again? | 22:44 |
| xcv | pythonsnake: trinity? | 22:45 |
| pythonsnake | It's a KDE 3 fork. | 22:45 |
| pythonsnake | xcv: KDE 3 was a legend. | 22:45 |
| yofel | no, we don't recommend other distros in here :P | 22:45 |
| pythonsnake | yofel: It's not a distro. | 22:45 |
| pythonsnake | It's a DE. | 22:45 |
| xcv | pythonsnake: i have old live cds of kubuntu and opensuse over ther, i think i will try kde3 | 22:46 |
| pythonsnake | xcv: Yeah. :-). | 22:46 |
| xcv | pythonsnake: i underestimated kde3 i see :) | 22:47 |
| === droid is now known as Guest25555 | ||
| pythonsnake | xcv: I've myself never tried 3. I should give it a try :-) | 22:49 |
| xcv | pythonsnake: of course i will :) | 22:49 |
| semitones | what's the gksu command for kde? | 23:08 |
| DaemonFC | in Kubuntu it is gksudo | 23:08 |
| DaemonFC | the root account is disabled by default | 23:08 |
| semitones | thanks -- I thought it would be kusudo or something | 23:09 |
| James147 | semitones: kdesudo | 23:10 |
| semitones | cool thanks | 23:11 |
| === si is now known as Guest318 | ||
