[00:50] Quintasan, :-D [02:04] hello can someone give some pointers to Linkmaster in #kubuntu ? [02:05] He can't see his school network with iwlist and just wants debugging tips [02:05] I've no idea since I've never used Wifi [07:21] don't know if this kde or kubuntu bug, but plasma crash when trying to change colours https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=284331 [07:21] KDE bug 284331 in general "Plasma destop crash when trying to apply colour change" [Crash,New] [08:28] debfx: after shutting down manually one time yesterday, the commandline inside systemsettings seem to do the job it powered off last night, but dont ask me why [08:45] hello [08:45] kopete crashed, i tried to report it via the bug wizard ( which i think uses dr.konqi to find suitable debug packages) - i 'ok'ed everything till it failed to authenticate [08:45] and this happens everytime ! [08:45] can someone tell what i should do? [08:55] hmm, that might be due to no packagekit installed [08:55] try installing apper [09:20] nah [09:20] Riddell: dbginstaller uses libqapt [09:20] more likely a polkit problem if it failed to auth [09:33] Riddell: i have apper [09:33] apachelogger: do you have a solution ? i dont know what polkit is [09:33] not really [09:33] is it trying to install packages when it fails to authenticate? [09:33] polkit is the thing that asks you to authenticate [09:34] yes [09:34] Riddell: yes [09:34] apachelogger: seemingly it never asks [09:35] oh [09:35] that is weird [09:35] jtr__: is polkit-kde-authentication-agent running? [09:35] apachelogger: how can i check? [09:35] apachelogger: pardon me , i dont know too much [09:35] press ctrl+esc [09:35] search for polki [09:35] ehm [09:35] polkit [09:35] obviously :) [09:36] apachelogger: polkitd running [09:36] apachelogger: thats it [09:36] oh, that is funny [09:36] jtr__: are you running gnome? [09:36] apachelogger: no kde [09:36] jtr__: or did you install ubuntu and then install kubuntu-desktop on top of that? [09:36] apachelogger: yes [09:36] ah, ok, there is a bug with that [09:36] apachelogger: i see [09:37] apachelogger: many other weird things , when i slide desktops in kde particularly the 1st two in the row ( horizontal movement) , i see the old classical unity like look behind it sometimes [09:37] jtr__: what is the output of `dpkg -s polkit-kde-1 |grep install` on a terminal? [09:38] ohhhh, is uniy running? [09:38] no no [09:38] i dont think so [09:38] well [09:38] i upgraded to gnome3 long ago [09:38] ctrl+esc and check :) [09:38] i guess it breaks unity [09:38] or so i've heard [09:39] it should not [09:39] no unity not running [09:39] ok, weird then [09:39] anyhow, what is the output of the dpkg command? [09:39] not installed , no info available . [09:39] should i apt-get it?> [09:39] yes [09:39] then logout and back in again [09:40] that should fix auth [09:43] ok, what i was actually doing and got me irritated that i had to fix this was ---> i wanted to report a bug after kopete crashed and the dr.konqi debug symbols required the auth [09:43] otherwise i would always sudo the process in terminal ;) [09:44] let me check if it worked [09:44] btw, is it possible to crash kopete again :P [09:44] wow! it did crash again :lol: [09:45] apachelogger: didnt work [09:45] apachelogger: still the same message...do i need to restart the desktop env? [09:45] apachelogger: brb [09:48] apachelogger: its the Qapt batch installer giving the auth error [10:38] fregl: what's this about accessibility crashes? [10:39] Riddell: I wonder too... I get crashes in the qt-at-spi bridge when loggin in. doesn't feel good. maybe there's not to many people having the qt-at-spi package installed when running kubunt ? [10:40] on crash is nepomuk on startup in a XInternAtom call... [10:40] it's my code, that's the scary part :( [10:40] qt-at-spi isn't installed by default [10:41] Riddell: yes. but it's a dep of ubuntu-desktop... [10:41] uh huh [10:42] I didn't expect that [10:42] it seems to work ok for unity-2d but I see big problems coming when mixing with kde apps [10:42] why is that? [10:42] and I wish you could update to the newer version of the bridge, but that depends on qt 4.8 [10:43] I don't know, there are bugs in qt 4.7 and lots of fixes in the bridge after that... [10:43] Riddell: are you back on kubuntu? [10:43] anyway, install the package and see what happens... [10:44] some apps will randomly crash :( [10:44] I'm working on bzr this week, back on kubuntu next week [10:45] nice [10:49] what is responsible for setting the QT_ACCESSIBILTY env var in Kubuntu now? if it doesn't get set, nothing happens. but for the kaccessible app that is included now, it's set [10:52] I don't have it set [10:53] maybe it's done in the qt-at-spi package [10:53] hmm, don't see anything in there [10:53] * fregl neither [10:53] didrocks: do you know? [10:53] maybe it comes from unity 2d somehow ??? [10:54] * fregl used to have it in his bashrc to test all apps with accessibility enabled.. but took it out from there [10:55] Riddell: what about kaccessible from kdeaccessibility - that needs it as well when activating the screenreader? [10:56] nope, I don't see it [10:58] Riddell: qt-at-spi doesn't do it. I just know TheMesu is doing it in gnome-control-center when then accessibility is set to on. I think you have the some kde thing (ui to set it?) [10:58] TheMuso* [11:06] Riddell: didrocks: just found out from TheMuso: /etc/X11/Xsession.d/90qt-a11y [11:06] from at-spi2-core [11:07] and it checks for the gnome setting to be active, so it should not affect many users [11:09] fregl: urgh, seems wrong to me, it checks then if the $dm user has accessibility on [11:17] didrocks: that gets run before login? [11:18] didrocks: that sounds weird indeed. and the dm doesn't know about which user is going to log in... if I understand correctly [11:18] when does the Xsession.d stuff get run? [11:18] Riddell: I'm not there if it specified for $dm, I know that lighdm and gdm log in before and change the current user before sourcing them, but don't know for other dms [11:19] fregl: ^ [11:19] if the dm log in before, gsettings will take the current user [11:19] didrocks: ok, I am running lightdm atm because it replaced my kdm without asking me during the update [11:20] I wanted to switch back, but didn't get around to it yet [11:20] especially since now I can't shut down from a kde session any more, just log out [11:20] the kaccessible stuff that comes with KDE 4.7 also depends on the QT_ACCESSIBILITY variable to be set btw, I still don't see how that would happen [11:21] fregl: urgh, yeah, that's not good, just reconfigure the kdm package, should work [11:21] there is nothing in the kdeaccessibility-4.7.2 source as far as I can see [11:21] didrocks: thanks [11:21] saves me googling :) [11:21] I don't think QT_ACCESSIBILITY gets set by kaccessible, if you want it you just set it manually [11:22] Riddell: do you get a system tray icon by default? I have it showing up and giving me a checkbox to enable the screenreader that seb sauer wrote [11:24] there's no kaccessible system tray icon by default [11:24] presumably you have it because you have QT_ACCESSIBILITY set [11:25] should we change /etc/X11/Xsession.d/90qt-a11y to not set QT_ACCESSIBILITY if KDE_FULL_SESSION is set? [11:28] Riddell: I don't know. at least that's a temporary fix. [11:29] I just tried kdm and it set the var also, so no change there. [11:29] fregl: do you want to try a if KDE_FULL_SESSION != true as well? [11:29] or whatever the bash is for that [11:30] Riddell: I can try. I'll first try disabling a11y in gnome-control-center now... logging out and in is fun [11:34] I have it set still... maybe I should try to understand the xsession script [11:35] it still returns true, I wonder what sets this var org.gnome.desktop.interface toolkit-accessibility [11:37] well it'll be the gnome accessibility config tool no? [11:40] not the one in gnome-control-center afaict, is there a separate one? [11:40] but setting that gconf setting to false fixes the crashing [11:40] and it also hides the kaccessible tray icon [11:44] fregl: well I expected all that :) [11:44] yes, at least you know what's going on :) [11:45] so maybe it makes sense to disable the seeting for kde sessions. it would be nicer to properly fix it, but short term it sounds reasonable. [11:45] but you say there is no proper fix, that needs qt 4.8 [11:46] yes, I suspect so. I don't know how many individual fixes could be backported. and adding more patches on top of your qt 4.7 doesn't sound all that great [12:11] hmm well we can't use KDE_FULL_SESSION [12:11] I wonder how else to decide if it's Plasma or not === rdieter_work is now known as rdieter_laptop [13:38] [lp:~kubuntu-packagers/kubuntu-packaging/libkdeedu] Philip Muškovac * 16 * debian/ (changelog control) libkdeedu-data should be Arch all. [13:42] is this the right placed to ask about problems with 11.10? [13:46] screw it. ill ust do a fresh install [14:45] <_Groo_> hi/2 all [14:46] <_Groo_> anyone here with nvidia proprietary driver, oneiric and vlc? [14:47] a) and b) yes - c) can try [14:48] <_Groo_> hi yofel :D [14:49] <_Groo_> yofel: just enable the gpu acceleration.. it should crash vlc in oneiric... aparently its a vaapi bug + latest libc [14:49] <_Groo_> btw you need to install the vaapi vdpau package [14:49] <_Groo_> was working fine in natty [14:52] _Groo_: what package name? can't find it [14:52] <_Groo_> yofel: vdpau-va-driver [14:52] <_Groo_> yofel: also install vainfo package.. that way you can run vainfo and see if the vaapi is working fine [15:32] greetings from the transformer [15:33] hmmm [15:34] this works pretty nicely provided you dont write too fast [15:34] <_Groo_> Quintasan: hey hey [15:34] <_Groo_> Quintasan: do you have a nvidia card? [15:34] Yes, I do [15:34] I will test it when I am done with my homework [15:35] <_Groo_> can you test vlc with vaapi vdpau extension? its fast and its crashing in libc for some perfectly good h264 movies that it didnt in natty [15:35] Homework comes first my friend [15:35] <_Groo_> yofel already did some testing, but his short on 1080p movies : [15:35] <_Groo_> :D [15:35] <_Groo_> he is* [15:36] oh I have plenty of these [15:37] Well then, off to homework [15:38] <_Groo_> Quintasan: ok, after you are done with that, open vlc, go the input and codec, enable gpu accel... youll need to install vdpau-va-driver and vainfo, run vainfo to see if everything is working fine.. [15:39] <_Groo_> Quintasan: then open a bunch of 1080p h264 movies.. if you are lucky you should crash vlc 1.11.x, 1.2.x wih a glibc beautiful crash [15:39] Okay [15:46] <_Groo_> anyone experiencing this? kde 4.7.2 in oneiric doesnt save the windows positions and sizes after closing the app [16:14] _Groo_: No issues here. [16:15] <_Groo_> Darkwing: strange indeed.. tks anyway [16:50] <_Groo_> apachelogger: ping [16:50] pong [16:50] <_Groo_> apachelogger: see #Phonon pls :) [16:50] <_Groo_> apachelogger: cant compile damn phonon-vlc [16:51] <_Groo_> apachelogger: it doesnt find phonon-config.cmake [16:51] fix yer path then [16:51] <_Groo_> apachelogger: explain [16:52] <_Groo_> apachelogger: already installed libphonon-dev and experimental-dev [16:52] <_Groo_> apachelogger: what else is missing? [16:54] _Groo_: you are using phonon from git are you? [16:55] <_Groo_> yofel: nope... just got the answer from Rdieter [16:55] <_Groo_> cloning now [16:56] <_Groo_> i upgraded to vlc 1.2 daily [16:56] <_Groo_> which broke phonon from 4.7.2 [16:56] <_Groo_> so.. [17:01] you need phonon git [17:01] or you no can build stuff === Guest14343 is now known as Mamarok === Mamarok is now known as Guest69403 [18:00] A number of nice reports concerning oneiric upgrades in kubuntuforums since release :) === Guest69403 is now known as Mamarok [18:01] and not as many kmail2 horror stories as I had anticipated [18:02] But that begs the question of how many people *don't* use Kontact [18:02] :) its a ppa thing I think [18:02] normal servers ok? [18:03] ForgeAus: wrong channel? :D [18:04] well [18:04] is it? [18:04] I was replying to something you said [18:05] in lights of kontact stuff and rekonq still being less than stable, I believe we should rethink our values at some point [18:05] kontact and kmail in oneric are mostly ok aren't they? its the ppa one that is messed up from what I can tell... [18:06] ForgeAus: I though ti was in re to comments in #kubuntu [18:06] ForgeAus: no, the issues are with the version in 11.10 [18:07] in #Kubuntu? I think he thinks thats a plasma problem seems to me more an X11 one [18:07] I could be wrong but that has nothing to do with kmail, kontact or a ppa afaik [18:07] apachelogger: I kinda agree, but I still prefer to have as many KDE specific things as we can, but there are no alternatives, though [18:08] ForgeAus: my bad, I just didn't see the connection to my statements is all :) [18:08] claydoh: its ok [18:08] konqueror? [18:08] as the migration to kmail2 is broken , and other bugs and annoyances and complications [18:09] ForgeAus: ugh :) more website incompatibilities, though more stable [18:10] claydoh, well you could go back to arora wasn't it? ... not as far to fall... [18:11] chromium imo [18:11] yeah thats another choice [18:11] is chromium webkit though? [18:12] but with some better theming if possible [18:12] khrome? lol [18:14] or rather chrome, its Qt, right? chromium building seems to dep on gtk [18:14] if we pick and choose what all the other kids are using to build their distros, what separates us from them? [18:15] chromium is the engine isn't it? I think both are GTK dependant [18:15] either way I highly doubt Chrome is Qt-based [18:15] or stick with rekonq, keep it updated, and offer a browser installer that offers more than firefox? that might be nice [18:18] the installer still keeps firefox's basic ubuntu homepage, and lots of other ubuntu stuff anyway... [18:18] well messes up one good idea :) [18:19] apparently theres something slow about QT for browsers [18:19] an article mentioned Opera dropped Qt and become faster than Chrome (not sure about when that was) [18:21] right [18:21] that is why the n9 has the fastest browser made entirely with Qt [18:21] apachelogger: port it then :) [18:21] it aint floss [18:21] well, not yet anyway [18:24] there are no good solutions that cover everything atm, at least not to my feeble mind [18:24] claydoh: browserwise? [18:24] * apachelogger thinks that every browser is rubbish, just in different ways [18:24] apachelogger: ya [18:24] apachelogger: agreed [18:25] one is proprietary, one is slow, one is unstable, one hogs memory... [18:25] so what is least rubbish? [18:27] kate [18:27] :P [18:28] but kate isn't a web browser [18:29] exactly. [18:29] I think he meant what browser is the least rubbish? [18:30] kate [18:31] * ForgeAus scratches his head [18:32] chromium is floss right? you could use whatever you like of that code and put a Qt face on it? ... [18:34] ForgeAus hasn't figured out apachelogger 's mind yet :) [18:34] ForgeAus: that is what Qt browsers do [18:35] qtwebkit is webkit which is what drives chrome and the js interpreter used is also the same as used in chrome [18:35] in consequence all the important bits are cherry picked but except for the n9 browser none has managed to make it into a usable product yet [18:46] back, and sorry I wasn't aware chrome was webkit-based too [18:51] * claydoh hearts quasseldroid, just saying for no resin in particular [18:52] s/resin/reason [19:03] lol quassel isn't my thang I'm afraid [19:03] I'm more a konversation - alist [19:03] quassel gives me that x-chat feeling all over again... oddly enough [19:05] * yofel uses it for it's core/client part - and because he isn't really an irssi fan [19:05] M [19:06] yeah ther core/client thing is interesting ... I just don't find that I need it thats all :) [19:06] and yes well that s far from x-chat like that particular respect... [19:06] * claydoh agrees with yofel, used it for the same reasons [19:08] * claydoh is still learning how to use Swype, maybe should use voice commands instead [19:37] Evening guys :) [19:37] apachelogger: any ideas if I have to root my transformer to put Ubuntu on it? the forum post doesn't really say anything [19:38] And when I boot the device into recovery, I get a exclamamtion mark and it doesn't get detected over USB [19:38] Quick question for you, since it seems I may be looking for something which doesn't exist - I just tried to fsck a swap partition, and there's no fsck.swap - should there be one in the 3.0.0-12 kernel? [19:39] BarkingFish: what point is there in fsck-ing swap? [19:41] I don't know - maybe the same as there is with checking any other partition which goes feet up and stops your machine dead? :P [19:41] even if there is such a thing, I've never seen swap having fsck enabled in fstab so far [19:41] shadeslayer: maybe [19:41] shadeslayer: how am I supposed to know? :P [19:41] talk to Quintasan [19:41] figure it out [19:41] heh, yeah [19:41] * apachelogger won't be around forever :P [19:41] Quintasan is busy till thursday i think [19:42] I got a whole shedload of DMA write errors which flooded VT1, and stopped my kdm dead, disrupting the display. [19:42] I wanted to find out whether the partition was knackered :) [19:42] * valorie {{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{hugs}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}} apachelogger [19:42] * apachelogger feels hugged [19:43] well, worst case just mkswap the swap partition and fix the UUID in fstab, but DMA is memory access, not swap [19:43] * shadeslayer gives a cookie to apachelogger [19:43] * apachelogger {{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{hugs}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}} valorie [19:43] * valorie {{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{hugs}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}} apachelogger [19:43] UBER HUG TIME [19:43] kubotu: order cookies for apachelogger and valorie [19:43] * kubotu slides a whole bunch of world's finest cookies down the bar to apachelogger and valorie. [19:43] yofel, I think I'll do that then, just reset the swap partition and put the new UUID in. [19:44] booki is not fun [19:44] ^^ agreed [19:44] * apachelogger {{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{hugs}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}} yofel and shadeslayer [19:44] Probably because it's in pyth0rn [19:44] what is a booki? [19:45] apachelogger: It's a tool to make books [19:45] and we're writing a beginners guide to KDE at the Doc Sprint [19:45] ic [19:46] job done yofel - rewrote the swap and plonked the new UUID in fstab, hopefully I shouldn't have anymore problems :P [19:47] shadeslayer: write a kubuntu manual while you're at it :P [19:47] yofel: hah! I wish i had time [19:47] Darkwing: is on that [19:47] we're here from 9 AM till 10 PM [19:48] heck, all our food comes to us and we keep hacking :P [19:48] * shadeslayer caffinates a bit === yofel_ is now known as yofel [20:04] hmmm how come no rott-data? [20:08] ForgeAus: this isn't a support channel, and the folks in #ubuntu-motu would probably know more about that package === skreech_ is now known as Daskreech === Daskreech is now known as skreech_ === skreech_ is now known as Daskreech === neversfelde_ is now known as neversfelde [22:48] what's the binary for muon update manager? [22:49] hello again :) Can someone remind me where the daily PPA is for kubuntu please? [22:50] BarkingFish: daily for what? [22:51] the daily updates and things, the stuff you build daily to go out [22:51] if you mean the daily builds of KDE, that's project-neon in ppa:neon [22:52] nope, not the kde one. [22:52] There was one ppa I had enabled under natty, danged if I can remember what it was though. [22:53] do you mean the updates or backports? [22:53] updates [22:53] ppa:kubuntu-ppa [22:53] thanks yofel :) [22:55] I was looking for the updated version of kdenlive which had to be rebuilt, i think it couldn't find the sdl module or something. [22:55] i saw it got rebuilt about a day ago [22:56] yup, that got it :) It's working now. [22:58] or at least, i thought it was. Now the GUI isn't appearing after you set it up :( [22:58] When does the kernel stop using eth0 names? [22:59] BarkingFish: works here.. [22:59] hm [22:59] I think I'm gonna replace my computer at some point in the next week or so. I know this isn't pebkac, I'm only doing what everyone else does :) [23:00] Clearly this pos thing which passes for a PC is past its prime and looking for a trip to a council landfill :P [23:03] electronics should not go to landfill [23:04] well I'll send it wherever it should get sent then, I believe my local council have a WEEE registered depot that will deal with it [23:05] I don't understand why only my PC has these issues, and when I ask others, the progs are working fine :) It's happened with 5 things since I upgraded to Oneiric... [23:05] Others I have asked say there isn't a problem, when I try it, stuff seems to go feet up.
