| corvus_ | Will Kubuntu run ok on a P4 2.6 ghz 1 gb ram system? | 00:37 |
| kay-inge_ | kubuntu runs on a sempron 3000+ 768MB ram system by me at work, not very fast, but it runs and its usable | 00:38 |
| corvus_ | Does it tend to hang a lot? | 00:39 |
| kay-inge_ | you need some patience and have to deactivate the desktop effects, but when the programs are loaded, it runs smooth | 00:42 |
| corvus_ | Ah, ok. Thanks! | 00:42 |
| kay-inge_ | at work, i got dolphin, firefox, thunderbird, libreoffice always open | 00:44 |
| kay-inge_ | not very fast, but usable | 00:44 |

| reisi | Amokrun: i remember it failing completly with kubuntu upgrade (known issue back then), had to do it manually (there must had been a howto, probably linked from the known issues) | 11:22 |
| denys_z | Hi, sorry for second message, but i think my first one didn't get posted: I am having big trouble with KDE after KDE monitor failing - one of the monitors isn't enabled (and I can't enable it back), panels aren't showing and KDE crushes when I try to add a new panel. Could someone help me with this? | 11:23 |
| denys_z | is there a way to repair KDE settings/installation? | 11:24 |
| reisi | denys_z: so is your second monitor still "connected"? as in, can you move your mouse over there? | 11:24 |
| denys_z | sorry, it was "KDE monitor daemon failing", but my second monitor is physically connected but not working (mouse won't go over it) | 11:26 |
| denys_z | I did reboot the system - didn't help | 11:26 |
| reisi | denys_z: hmmm so you end up with one monitor which displays nothing (perhaps background) and you cannot get your mouse over there? | 11:28 |
| reisi | denys_z: is this when you are logged in or can't you get into the login screen either? | 11:29 |
| denys_z | not really, it is not even detected by the system so it si in stand-by mode, however it is not the biggest problem - the problem is that KDE won't show any panels and windows - they flick when I alt-tab but never get displayed | 11:29 |
| denys_z | it is when i am logged on | 11:30 |
| denys_z | I suspect it could be ATI drivers - is there a way to disable a particular driver? | 11:31 |
| denys_z | from console - cuz UI won't behave at all | 11:31 |
| reisi | denys_z: hmm perhaps, but if you are already logged into the console, try "DISPLAY=:0 xrandr" | 11:32 |
| reisi | denys_z: you can even do this over ssh; can you get any output? | 11:35 |
| denys_z | yep | 11:36 |
| denys_z | it says that only one monitor is connected | 11:36 |
| denys_z | DFP1 connected, DFP2 disconnected, CRT1/2 disconnected | 11:37 |
| Amokrun | reisi: For some reason, kmail2 is behaving really wrong for me. | 11:40 |
| Amokrun | The migrations of course failed. | 11:40 |
| Amokrun | After doing it manually, it worked for a few days and then stopped sending any mail. | 11:40 |
| Amokrun | That got sort of fixed with purge of akonadi files. | 11:40 |
| Amokrun | But now it moved to the most interesting phase of deleting any mail you view from both local and remote storage. | 11:40 |
| Amokrun | So the moment I click a mail, it's permanently gone. | 11:41 |
| Amokrun | During all the years I've used e-mail, I can't recall a single case where e-mail client managed to destroy mail permanently. | 11:41 |
| sundar | hi, i have a problem with pthread. i keep getting this error __pthread_mutex_cond_lock: Assertion `mutex->__data.__owner == 0' failed (not that often) | 11:43 |
| reisi | denys_z: hmm oki | 11:43 |
| sundar | i have 2 threads in my app. one to receive packets from network, signal the other thread to process it | 11:43 |
| reisi | denys_z: is the resolution et al ok for the DFP1 | 11:43 |
| sundar | i am taking care of locking/unlocking the mutex my the respective thread. still am getting this issue | 11:44 |
| sundar | any idea what could be the problem? | 11:44 |
| sundar | gcc is 4.5.2 | 11:44 |
| reisi | sundar: you might want to take it over to #c++ or #linux, or just google, i guess someone else have had that assertion come up; there's mainly kubuntu user questions in this channel | 11:45 |
| sundar | reisi, ok thanks ill try in #linux | 11:45 |
| reisi | sundar: though, i'd check which call causes that assertion, and compare it to the other thread | 11:45 |
| reisi | Amokrun: put a message out in to the mailinglist | 11:46 |
| reisi | Amokrun: use that mozilla email client, i wouldn't go opening the kmail anymore | 11:47 |
| Amokrun | reisi: Yeah, I already killed any references to the mail box in both akonadi and kmail. | 11:47 |
| Amokrun | reisi: Don't feel like losing any more mail randomly or seeing what the next stage of kmail2 is. | 11:47 |
| reisi | i so hate akonadi, it's like dbus; yet another single point of failure, if it doesn't work nothing just doesn't seem to work either | 11:47 |
| Amokrun | I find it interesting that these almost-out-of-beta technologies keep appearing in KDE. | 11:48 |
| denys_z | reisi: sorry, I was an idiot - my second monitor's DVI cable was loose. now it is working | 11:48 |
| Amokrun | I like KDE but for whatever reason, they keep finding these broken components from somewhere. | 11:48 |
| reisi | lately i've noticed that even when indexing is turned off there is still some indexing related process hoggin very much memory, though it's safe to kill it | 11:49 |
| Amokrun | Back in the 3.X days it was Arts that did whatever it felt like. | 11:49 |
| denys_z | it was a strange behaviour though - KDE was totally going mad and couldn't display any windows or panels | 11:49 |
| reisi | Amokrun: well i understand their ambitions with akonadi; and i understand the need to push new software, otherwise it'd never get used | 11:49 |
| Amokrun | Certainly. I don't mind the theory behind this. | 11:50 |
| reisi | i really wouldn't want to go back to the time with ARTS :D i ended up going around it in most cases any ways | 11:50 |
| Amokrun | It's just that you don't want to end up deleting mail randomly. That's about the worst thing you can do. | 11:51 |
| reisi | denys_z: yeah well.. i guess i should have asked if the cable is infact plugged in :) | 11:51 |
| Amokrun | I can deal with broken software if it fails gracefully. | 11:51 |
| reisi | Amokrun: hard to understand what would have made it to do that.. well they are going to be interested when you file the report | 11:51 |
| Amokrun | Humdidum... I think I have a clue now. | 11:53 |
| Amokrun | It turns out that Akonadi has screwed up all the paths for mail boxes. | 11:53 |
| Amokrun | Local, that is. | 11:53 |
| Amokrun | Now that I have saved-messages pointing somewhere again, it kinda works. | 11:53 |
| Amokrun | It still deletes the mails but it moves them to saved-messags. | 11:54 |
| Amokrun | Though it never did this before. | 11:54 |
| Amokrun | So they disappear from inbox but with refresh appear there again. | 11:54 |
| Amokrun | Only grey this time. | 11:54 |
| Amokrun | So apparently someone decided to change the way this works by default. | 11:54 |
| Amokrun | But since the defauls are broken after migration, it ends up dropping the messages on the floor. | 11:54 |
| Amokrun | Or that's my guess at this point. | 11:55 |
| Amokrun | Though in any case, dropping the mail on the floor if the folder doesn't exist is still scary. | 11:57 |
| Exilant | hi, does vlc or any other program in kubuntu act as a upnp/dlna client? | 12:09 |
| Exilant | found some posts claiming vlc should be one, but all from before 2008 | 12:10 |
| === Quintasan_ is now known as Quintasan | ||
| Peace- | Exilant: ffmpeg ? | 12:16 |
| Peace- | dunno | 12:16 |
| Amokrun | Okay, this is truly puzzling. | 12:25 |
| Amokrun | After randomly messing with the folders, re-creating them a couple of times etc. it now looks like it works. | 12:25 |
| Amokrun | Only problem is, I don't know if it'll actually work or if it'll start doing something weird again. | 12:25 |
| osinclair | amokrun_: u still online? | 12:26 |
| osinclair | amokrun_: I ended up moving .kde folder and .local folder and then install KDEPIM fresh | 12:27 |
| osinclair | then I reimported mail, recreated accounts, filters etc. Now have it back to where it was | 12:28 |
| Amokrun | I did something similar. | 12:28 |
| Amokrun | However, my mail is on IMAP. | 12:28 |
| Amokrun | The only thing I cannot explain is why it deletes e-mail randomly. | 12:29 |
| Amokrun | I can't figure out what would cause kmail to delete a message that you are trying to view. | 12:29 |
| osinclair | amokrun_: I understand IMAP is a headache, only use pop3 myself | 12:29 |
| osinclair | agree on that one - the mail deleting that is | 12:29 |
| Amokrun | I verified that it actually does go and delete the message from remote host. | 12:29 |
| Amokrun | So it clearly tries to do something clever there. | 12:30 |
| osinclair | and do install akonadiconsole.. if your "akonadi sender" goes offline you can toggle it back online | 12:30 |
| Amokrun | Did already, that tool is the only way akonadi is reasonably useful. | 12:30 |
| Amokrun | At least you know when it melts. | 12:30 |
| osinclair | Amokrun_: can not heå much on imap - you tried kdepim mailing list? | 12:30 |
| Amokrun | I think I have this sort of working now. | 12:32 |
| Amokrun | I'll post something once I figure out which forum is appropriate. | 12:32 |
| Amokrun | I think the bit that is most broken here is that you can end up in a situation where mail is silently destroyed. | 12:32 |
| osinclair | Amokrun_: I got help via kdepim mailing list or kubuntu mailing list | 12:32 |
| Amokrun | All the rest has to do with the migration being broken. | 12:32 |
| osinclair | and I would seriously hate losing mail... | 12:33 |
| osinclair | Amokrun_: however kubuntu packagers did advice to reinstall rahter than migrate | 12:33 |
| Amokrun | Well, given that the migrate box is what jumps out when you do the installation... :-) | 12:34 |
| osinclair | Amokrun_: yes.. I know. I ended up doing a reinstall of Kubuntu | 12:35 |
| Amokrun | I wonder why everyone includes that migration tool since it seems to be busted. I read several discussions from Arch users with similar issues six months ago. | 12:36 |
| Amokrun | Apparently the same migration tool was equally busted and broke all sorts of stuff. | 12:36 |
| Amokrun | Oh, by the way. Anyone having issues with the taskbar crashing? | 12:36 |
| Amokrun | Or just me? | 12:36 |
| Amokrun | It was reasonably stable in last release. | 12:36 |
| osinclair | Amokrun_: Arch was the first release to include KDEPIM 2, hence the problems | 12:37 |
| Quintasan | We can't really drop pim2 | 12:38 |
| osinclair | Amokrun_: and kubuntu packagers held back and kept it in experimental. Wisely. I tried already then but gave up | 12:38 |
| osinclair | amokrun_: taskbar fine for me, Kontact crash when I close it | 12:39 |
| Quintasan | The only thing developers and users can do is to get as much debug info as possible and send them to kdepim team | 12:39 |
| * Quintasan stopped using KMail for the very same reasons | 12:39 | |
| Amokrun | Okay. My taskbar is almost quaranteed to crash on shutdown and crashes randomly otherwise. | 12:39 |
| Amokrun | Goes down almost randomly sometimes without any activity. | 12:40 |
| Amokrun | Did the same with the KDE beta release earlier but much less frequently. | 12:40 |
| === Guest48918 is now known as waky | ||
| osinclair | amokrun_:you don't mean plasma desktop, I get the odd crash there? | 12:42 |
| Amokrun | Yes, that might be it. The only visible issue is that the taskbar goes down for a moment,. | 12:42 |
| osinclair | Amokrun_: that is plasma desktop and I suspect Kubuntu to be honest | 12:43 |
| osinclair | amokrun_: you upgraded to 4.7.4? It seems more stable to me | 12:44 |
| Amokrun | Not yet, although I might do that. | 12:44 |
| Amokrun | This release seems to be hit and miss with some things. | 12:44 |
| Amokrun | I was already thinking of moving back to 3.X releases. The 4.X doesn't really bring anything to the table that I need. | 12:45 |
| osinclair | amokrun_: search for trinitydesktop project then. But 4.7.4 is more stable then 4.7.3 | 12:46 |
| Amokrun | Yeah, already have everything ready for that. | 12:46 |
| Amokrun | Got to test it in a virtual install first. | 12:46 |
| osinclair | http://www.trinitydesktop.org - I run it on some old desktops | 12:47 |
| osinclair | amokrun_: it is more or less a 1-man project though | 12:48 |
