| Roey | hey all | 00:34 |
|---|---|---|
| Roey | I upgraded to kde 4.7.3 and now all my GTK apps show a black background instead of white. Argh! What changed??? | 00:35 |
| Roey | hey schnelle | 00:38 |
| Roey | any helper here? | 00:38 |
| Roey | hey skfin | 00:41 |
| Roey | god this is totally messed up here with the foreground colors for GTK apps... everything is black on black here.... I had just upgraded to kde 4.7.3 and this problem pops up. Has nyone else seen it? | 00:44 |
| Snowhog | Roey: What Desktop Theme were you using before the upgrade to KDE 4.7.3? | 00:47 |
| Roey | custom | 00:47 |
| Roey | Snowhog: custom; I tried changing it but the GTK apps still show black-on-black. KDE apps don't show this. | 00:48 |
| Roey | i.e. KDE apps appear normal.] | 00:49 |
| Snowhog | Roey: Switch to a supported theme as a test and see how the GTK apps appear. | 00:49 |
| Roey | ok, brb | 00:50 |
| Roey | Snowhog: still the same thing; I changed it to Air and started a new instance of XCHat and see the same thing still. | 00:51 |
| Roey | Snowhog: when I re-started KDE to 4.7.3, I just logged out and logged back in; was there anything lingering in the background GTK-wise, you think? Maybe I should restart all of X? | 00:52 |
| Snowhog | Roey: In System Settings > Application Appearance > GTK+ Appearance > Widget style, change from oxygen-gtk to Raleigh. Close and relaunch XCHat. Close XCHat. Reset back to oxygen-gtk and relaunch XCHat. | 00:54 |
| Roey | one second, doing that now. | 00:54 |
| Roey | Snowhog: same thing. | 00:57 |
| === massimo_ is now known as Guest26697 | ||
| Snowhog | Roey: Installed xchat here in Kubuntu 11.10 running KDE 4.7.4. I'm using the Oxygen (dark) Desktop Theme. xchat displays just fine. | 01:04 |
| Roey | oh | 01:06 |
| skfin | ermm wat | 01:06 |
| Roey | why isn't this kde 4.7.4... one sec | 01:06 |
| skfin | skfin_ wwwat | 01:07 |
| Roey | dah!!! I have to re-start X it seems... logging out and logging in just ain't enough to get kde 4.7.4 to take... | 01:07 |
| Roey | grr. | 01:07 |
| Roey | brb | 01:07 |
| skfin | I think my irssi has its own mind | 01:12 |
| HomeRoey | snowhog: ok, restarting all of X did the trick. | 01:16 |
| Snowhog | HomeRoey: :) | 01:17 |

| rork | I have a problem with sending email in kmail. Kmail uses IMAP for receiving and SMTP for sending, however when I send a new mail, or a reply the email just sits in the local outbox and isn't sent.

| arkaddre | I installed both wicd and have set a CIFS share as auto in /etc/fstab but reboots hang for 5 minutes because wicd shuts down before network filesystems are unmounted in /etc/rc6.d | 17:27 |
| arkaddre | (K20wicd < S31umountnfs.sh) | 17:28 |
| arkaddre | Two questions: what's the significance, if any, between K and S as prefixes in /etc/rc[1-6].d? | 17:28 |
| arkaddre | And: I want wicd after umountnfs but before networking in rc6. I could obviously just rename the symlinks as-is but where do they come from? | 17:29 |
| arkaddre | they're not present in the .deb files for the wicd (or its daemon) | 17:30 |
| arkaddre | and under what circumstances, if any, will that renaming be disrupted (e.g. by recreating the bad wicd symlink in /etc/rc6.d and ending up with duplicate symlinks) by wicd package updates? | 17:31 |
| arkaddre | What's happening is reminiscent of https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/211631 | 17:32 |

| macman_ | hey! how can i prevent kubuntu from hibernating rather than suspend? thanks using desktop | 18:23 |
| Resistance | macman_: power settings perhaps? | 18:24 |
| Resistance | we'd need more context to understand what you want it to do | 18:25 |
| macman_ | well if you leave the machine alone it will hibernate, not uspend, how did i change that? power management seems for laptops thanks | 18:28 |

| george | hello. it seems i've messed my bluetooth packages up. Can anyone tell me which ones are installed by default (Kubuntu 11.10)? | 21:08 |
| utente | you can look at the history of what you installed. | 21:12 |
| utente | what do you mean that you messed them up? | 21:12 |
| qbit | george: I am uncertain which are default as I may have installed something and not noticed, but on my box I have: bluetooth, bluez(amd64), bluez-cups, bluez-tools, libbluetooth3, bluez-alsa(amd64), bluez-gstreamer, and libbluedevil1 | 21:14 |
| george | utente: hello. well, since the 11.10 upgrade, bluetooth stopped working ("adapters not found"). so, i've tried to install some other bluetooth managers, but then i've installed other bluetooth packages and know it doesn't even show on panel... :( | 21:15 |
| george | qbit: thanks | 21:15 |
| qbit | I think the bluez ones might be for KDE while there are others I do not have installed which are Gnome | 21:15 |
| george | hum... it seems i don't have bluez-tools... | 21:18 |

| drox | I have a problem with samba, I can not connect with my network HD. My network consists of a modem and a router ip 192.168.1.1 192.168.2.1 HD is connected to the router. Using dolphin and I going to find the network router (Belkin), but does not go and tell me the location smb: / is not valid. | 21:28 |
| qbit | george: I don't have/use bluetooth on this box but the error suggests no kernel or driver module loading | 21:28 |
| drox | Another problem is that the apple does not remember his ip: ( | 21:28 |
| george | qbit: is there a way to fix it? | 21:28 |
| qbit | george: I'd look at lsmod and dmesg and /var/log/messages and look for anything bluetooth relates (error) | 21:29 |
| george | qbit: lsmod says bluetooth 166112 10 rfcomm,bnep | 21:30 |
| qbit | my guess is that means the support is there and you wills ee it activate somewhere in dmesg | 21:32 |
| qbit | but I'm limited in what I can suggest | 21:32 |
| qbit | but if the underlying support for the hardware is present it reinforces the idea that it's a messed up config problem | 21:33 |
| BluesKaj | drox check out NAS | 21:33 |
| qbit | george: with the most likely candidate being /etc/bluetooth/rfcomm.conf | 21:34 |
| george | qbit:# /etc/bluetooth/rfcomm.conf | 21:36 |
| george | -bash: /etc/bluetooth/rfcomm.conf: Permission denied | 21:36 |
| === BarkingFish is now known as hemopneumothorax | ||
| qbit | george: looks like those files are part of the bluez(amd64) package | 21:39 |
| qbit | if you should decide to delete it as a package for subsequent reinstall, choose the 'purge' option | 21:39 |
| qbit | using 'purge' should wipe any residual config and allow you to start over from scratch | 21:40 |
| qbit | other than that I'm about out of ideas | 21:40 |
| george | qbit: thanks a lot | 21:40 |
| george | qbit: will check that | 21:42 |

| hellslinger_ | for some reason kde is not turning my screen off even though the power profile is configured correctly and it is set to the profile, is there a daemon that should be running for this to work right? | 21:56 |
| FloodBotK3 | !netsplit | 21:58 |
| ubottu | netsplit is when two IRC servers of the same network (like freenode) disconnect from each other, so users on one server stop seeing users on the other. If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit | 21:58 |
| BluesKaj | drox, have you tried restarting network interfaces , sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart | 21:59 |
| qbit | hellslinger_: look in systensettings -> startup and shutdown -> service manager for Power management daemon | 21:59 |
| drox | ok i do and now? do i repaet to search network with dolphin? | 22:00 |
| hellslinger_ | qbit: yeah it is there and checked, can I verify that it is running and didn't crash at launch? | 22:01 |
| qbit | hellslinger_: I don't have it running on my box here, so not sure what it would look like in ps aux, but yes - if it's running you should see it in ps somewhere | 22:02 |
| drox | drox@DragonFly:~$ sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart * Running /etc/init.d/networking restart is deprecated because it may not enable again some interfaces * Reconfiguring network interfaces... [ OK ] | 22:02 |
| drox | drox@DragonFly:~$ | 22:02 |
| BluesKaj | drox , have you upgraded ? | 22:05 |
| qbit | hellslinger_: guess here is the kde power management service depends on upowerd, which should be started at boot and there should be a /usr/lib/upower/upowerd entry in ps for it to attach to | 22:06 |
| drox | what? | 22:06 |
| BluesKaj | updated/upgraded any networking apps or kde etc , drox | 22:07 |

| BluesKaj | so you installed samba too ? | 22:09 |
| drox | It is not installed by default on kubuntu? BluesKaj | 22:10 |
| drox | I thought it was seen that the dolphin has built-in key network and works with smb. I have heard bad about it? | 22:11 |
| BluesKaj | not sure , drox , check by doing sudo apt-get install samba | 22:11 |
| qbit | unless I'm mistaken Dolphin uses smbclient for smb:/ kio | 22:12 |
| BluesKaj | drox, I use ssh and NFS ...think I had to install samba after mylast clean OS install | 22:12 |
| drox | In fact, I assumed wrong, I'm installing the package | 22:12 |
| drox | but samba does not work reboot and try again now, hello and thank you | 22:18 |
| BluesKaj | drox, install netdiscover to find IPs on your LAN , vet handy | 22:22 |

| hellslinger_ | qbit: I'm looking into this upowerd issue, what do you mean by an 'entry in ps'? | 23:01 |
| === wsr3193 is now known as raghorn | ||
| qbit | hellslinger_: sorry, was out for food | 23:27 |
| qbit | ps <- command that lists all running processes | 23:28 |
| hellslinger_ | qbit: no problem, thanks for msging me back | 23:28 |
| hellslinger_ | haha yeah I picked up on that a few minutes later | 23:28 |
| hellslinger_ | I'm getting an error that says 'not allowed to own the service "org.freedesktop.UPower" due to security policies in the configuration file" | 23:29 |
| qbit | I think with the switch to udev and upowerd they communicate via dbus if I have it right in my head | 23:29 |
| qbit | that sounds like a policykit or apparmor deal | 23:29 |
| qbit | hellslinger_: I recently started using Kubuntu, recently switched away from openSUSE | 23:32 |
| qbit | hellslinger_: in openSUSE they have a module in Yast for configuring the policies and permissions your error is describing, but haven't learned or found the eqivalent config utility in Kubuntu as of yet | 23:33 |
| hellslinger | qbit: I'm at a loss, I've never had to deal with either of those things, do you have any advice about how to troubleshoot permissions or config files for those things? | 23:35 |
| qbit | not really | 23:36 |
| qbit | but I suspect it has something to do with policykit if I had to take a wild guess | 23:36 |
| hellslinger | cool, well that's probably a good enough starting point, much appreciated | 23:37 |
| hellslinger | qbit: does kubuntu work better when unity and gnome have been removed from the system? | 23:38 |
| qbit | have no idea - I've been a KDE user since KDE 1.45 and have never like Gnome | 23:38 |
| qbit | even though it is almost truly impossible to have a system which is perfectly clean with only bits from one | 23:39 |
| hellslinger | haha nice... I do keep coming back to KDE when I get tired of the inability to configure unity/gnome the way I want | 23:39 |
| hellslinger | I've had conisderable difficulty with laptop power management and KDE which is what kept me from going all the way | 23:40 |
| qbit | even though my system is mostly KDE there is still a few Gnomish support stuff on it | 23:40 |
| qbit | yeah - I'm not a laptop user so it's of no real importance to me - but if I did use a laptop it would become real important real quick | 23:41 |
| HearsFred | The last time I used IRC was with mIRC on windows - now I'm trying Konversation on Ubuntu and can't get it to connect to any Undernet servers | 23:42 |
| HearsFred | I get a "Connection to server (whatever.undernet.org) lost. Unknown error. | 23:43 |
| HearsFred | Can anyone advise me about what I might try? | 23:43 |
| hellslinger | I've never used konversation, have you tried quassel? | 23:43 |
| HearsFred | no, but happy to give it a try | 23:44 |
| qbit | I use KVirc and even so Undernet can be problematic | 23:45 |
| qbit | so I set it to retry every 10 minutes until it finally gets in | 23:46 |
| qbit | every once in a while I can get onto Undernet in one try but mostly not | 23:46 |
| HearsFred | I understand that undernet servers fill up and I always had some trouble connecting, but the error I get seems to be before any negotiation | 23:46 |
| qbit | most Undernet servers in the US have DNS A records that don't match their corresponding PTR records | 23:47 |
| HearsFred | any chance they block Comcast users? | 23:47 |
| qbit | and my security is set up to refuse connections in such a case | 23:47 |
| qbit | I use diemen.nl.eu.undernet.org simply because they have good DNS | 23:48 |
| qbit | I do think they limit connections to a certain size pool for non-.eu people trying to use it | 23:49 |
| qbit | but even though it was once not the case, for about the last year I've had problems getting connected to Undernet, usually enough retries sooner or later gets me in | 23:50 |
| HearsFred | I just tried diemen and got the same error immediately | 23:50 |
| qbit | I'm on diemen right now and have been for a few days | 23:51 |
| HearsFred | I feel like the error I get (or lack thereof), suggests I'm not having the typical connection problems | 23:52 |
| HearsFred | what port? | 23:52 |
| qbit | well, almost anything network related I fire up Wireshark and do a cpature so I can look through it | 23:52 |
| qbit | 6667 | 23:52 |
| qbit | mostly Wireshark doesn't actually solve anything directly, but it gives me a better view of what's going on | 23:53 |
| qbit | I have had problems with Undernet where I was getting null-routed by some ISP in Germany, and until they fixed it I was not able to connect | 23:55 |
| qbit | I have had that happen a few times | 23:55 |
| qbit | nothing I could do about that | 23:55 |
| qbit | but if somebody between you and Undernet is messing with your connections, and it could even be Comcast doing it (I doubt Comcast would)h | 23:56 |
