[00:42] I noticed the problem yesterday. [00:42] Tronic: hmmm... the kernel issues with power usage were supposed to have been resolved with kernel 3.2+ [00:43] however, i am using 11.10... and i am thinking the issue here is with KDE (bit i do not know that for sure) [00:43] but* [01:22] hi [03:10] Hi all! I'm attempting to dual boot Windows 7 and the latest Kubuntu release. I have plenty of free space allocated via the windows partition configurations, but I don't see the "free space" option in the Kubuntu setup.

[04:33] I'm just curious because I'm taking on this skills assessment for an internship, and the guy understand if I don't know much but am willing to learn... [04:33] how does that relate to Kubuntu? [04:33] But I just want to get enough of a grasp of things. [04:33] It relates to computers. [04:34] It relates to software development. [04:34] so it doesn't relate to Kubuntu -> off-topic [04:34] ... [04:34] Yeah? And? [04:34] Is there a room for that? [04:34] try on of the -offtopic channels [04:34] *one [04:36] There is no channel with that explicit name, and...I forget... [04:36] How do you pull up a channel list?

It used to work when I used 4.7. I'm not positive if the move to 4.8 broke it, tho [08:28] I can move the mouse to the corner so that the desktop is not switched, but the corner action is not triggered. If I disable desktop switching, the corner action works like a charm [08:36] I'm using KDE, naturally [08:57] ? [08:57] ?

I know it is BETA nad should not be stable per default. But could be more stable than 11.04 anyway ;) [14:08] Oxymoron: here works but because here works fine doesn't mean is stable for your [14:09] Peace-: Is anything crashing for you? Does apt, sound, wifi, video works? [14:09] Any improvements noticable? [14:09] Oxymoron: i use apt with alias and of course works fine [14:09] yes everything is working here [14:09] Peace-: I read somewhere about a bug with ordering problem in apt, configure packages before download them :P [14:10] Oxymoron: i just do sudo apt-get update ; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade [14:10] Peace-: What is the changes? Does not say much on the beta official info page. What is the REALLY changes for the user? [14:10] and it works [14:10] http://wstaw.org/m/2012/03/02/plasma-desktopbc1827.png [14:10] Oxymoron: well no changes [14:11] Oxymoron: kde 4.8 is kde 4.8 [14:11] Peace-: Something polished? better gui somewhere, nw modules or anything? [14:11] Peace-: Does Telepathy works good for instance? [14:11] Oxymoron: have you tested kde 4.8 ? [14:11] Oxymoron: telepathy here works with msn [14:11] Isnt KDE 4.8 installed if you have latest 11.04? [14:11] Peace-: Does it work with Facebook as well? [14:11] Maybe Skye? [14:11] Oxymoron: i dunno i am on kubuntu 12.04 since it was alpha [14:12] Oxymoron: i have no skype [14:12] Oxymoron: not tested telepathy wwith facebook [14:12] Just wondering if its worth install it at all. if not changes, then not need to install it. [14:12] And if no changes, why even bother release 12.04? :D [14:13] Oxymoron: if you have kde 4.7 ... [14:13] Oxymoron: if you have a good kernel with 11.'04 it doesn't means you have to upgrade [14:13] maybe just kde if you can install on it [14:14] Peace-: What is the new changes in KDE 4.8 then= :) [14:14] Oxymoron: well you can read the changelog on kde website [14:14] Yes I read release info on kde.org, but does say much. [14:14] dolphin faster basically [14:14] telepathy kde [14:15] What is the pratical changes, what do you as end user feel that changed. [14:15] dolphin a little faster [14:15] and plasma seems more stable [14:15] just that [14:16] Uhm seems like I have 4.8 [14:16] so... [14:16] Dolphin went more unstable, sure faster but crashes more often. [14:17] Oxymoron: here never chrashed [14:17] cra [14:17] It try to be so fast, that it freezes in directory listing process. [14:17] never seen that issue here [14:17] Take very long time to open a dir with many files etc, because of the tree view, when check a folder. [14:18] that could be true .. [14:18] Only happens sometimes [14:18] 4.8 is mainly a compositing speed improvement for me [14:18] Mostly when access NTFS partition [14:18] i have not ntfs :) [14:18] i just use linux [14:19] Peace-: Btw, do you know if anyone is working to improve audio configs and HDMI? [14:19] Oxymoron: no i don't know but this is what i have http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IXlf3xRMkIE right now [14:19] What I do not understand is that ubuntu/kubuntu NEVER done anything about the login screen before come to desktop ... EVER. [14:20] here there is a nice slash stuff [14:20] splash [14:21] Peace-: Really, can you show me what from kde.looks? I have not EVER seen any changes that make it looks good. Same crappy input fields [14:21] Different layouts, but same input and ugly KDE logo etc. [14:21] Not say I particularly want like Windows 7, but more like that please. [14:26] Oxymoron: i use minimalistic [14:27] Oxymoron: http://wstaw.org/m/2012/03/02/plasma-desktopBp1827.png [14:27] Peace-: This is the highest rated one on kde look ... http://kde-look.org/content/show.php/Clean?content=74405 [14:27] Looks like a child draw it. [14:28] So few changes that need to be done, to make it beautiful, but still simple, minimalistic. [14:29] Change shape of input fields, fonts of labels, then add a list of users with rounded corners on each logo of users. Colors is a taste matter, but I would say grey is out, make more milky with KDE blue. [14:30] Oxymoron: dunno but i like my desktop :) http://wstaw.org/m/2012/03/02/plasma-desktopjq1827.png and now i hav to go create your own kdm [14:30] Then use the whole freaking screen, not a simple frame in the middle with user and password field xD [14:30] if you don't like it's pretty simple [14:31] Oh does Kate have built in terminal :D [14:31] Oxymoron: read this it could be usefull for your new kdm theme :) http://opendesktop.org/content/show.php/?content=90516 [14:32] Peace-: Possible to change how xserver does render input fields? [14:33] Also wonder if possible to read in users on the system. [14:35] Peace-: How do you have Konsole in kate? [14:36] nvm found it. [14:39] hi. having kubuntu setup up & running. I'd like to reinstall cause I got new SSD. Is it possible to backup/upload current installtion on USB somehow to easily install or I need fresh install? [14:39] any tips & tricks? [14:46] jmut: you chould just copy the files to the new disk and reconfigure some things and reinstall grub [14:48] jmut: most notabally you need to edit /etc/fstab (denotes drives to be mounted at boot) [14:53] James147: well on old disk I got kubuntu + win7. I plan to keep it and have this SSD. on the SSD I will need the kubuntu installed, and win7 will be left on old HDD [14:54] James147: basically I will install all new kubuntu.... it will find other OS I guess ( from old HDD) and then I'll have to purge old kubuntu ( on old HDD) [14:54] James147: something like that is my plan [14:54] James147: something like that is my plan [14:54] oops.sry [14:59] jmut: backup ~/.kde and do a fresh install on the SSD? [14:59] it won't keep your system settings, but atleast your KDE settings will be preserved [15:01] shadeslayer: mm no. I will install fresh KDE on the new SSD drive....and then copy needed stuff from old drive [15:01] cool [15:01] best to start with a clean state sometimes :) [15:02] shadeslayer: yep...tons of settings though...copy it is for sure :) btw kwallet stuff is within .kde/ right? [15:02] afaik yes === serserar is now known as Guest95289 [15:40] hi. I have just installed kubuntu 12.04 beta1, and have problems with Plymouth - screen is blinking (with kubuntu logo/wallpaper - that plymouth theme) like some hundred times a second :) any hints how to fix this? === seshagiri_ is now known as seshagiri [15:46] hudred times / sec ...you have good eyes ...most lights only flicker at 50 -60 times / sec :) === seshagiri is now known as seshagiri_ [15:47] frankie___, ctl+alt+f1 .. you may have to login , then sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade , afterwards , reboot === seshagiri_ is now known as seshagiri [15:49] BluesKaj: okay, will try this :) === seshagiri is now known as seshagiri_ === seshagiri_ is now known as seshagiri [16:00] is 12GB enough for / (root) for desktop kubuntu installation? (not dvd) [16:01] (and, of course, for further installation of games and other applications) [16:02] should be [16:02] at least if you have a separate /home [16:04] 12G is plenty , a large install will still only use 6-8 [16:06] okay, going with 10G [16:08] * szal would view 10 as a bit on the low side [16:16] szal: /home is separated [16:16] event that 10G for / is low? [16:17] ? [16:18] szal: [17:08] * szal would view 10 as a bit on the low side [16:19] frankie___: hence the question mark; your last question doesn't make sense [16:20] let's say that I have two separate partitions - 10G for / and rest of disk for /home [16:20] in this situation does 10GB is enought for /? [16:21] depends on your usage pattern; I wouldn't rule out the possibility of / running full over time [16:47] after upgrade, still that same problem.... i see some "~^22[[", some "fsck from util-linux 2.20.1" and kubuntu wallpaper/logo is blinking [16:47] until login screen (which takes so much time - about 2 minutes to boot) === brian is now known as Guest1301 === harry is now known as Guest82360 [17:08] Hey.

I can kill the process and the system runs fine after, but it keeps coming back. Anyone have ideas on how to fix this?

All I see for the desktop itself is a gradient. [23:21] Seven_Six_Two: if you're not using separate x screens for a specific reason, it works much better set to twinview configuration [23:23] Sentynel, yeah, I had it working like that for a very long time using twinview, but I'm trying to get svideo out working as well [23:23] Sentynel, the thought was that I would get separate-x working first, then enable twinview with tv and second monitor. [23:24] Sentynel, since switching on twinview for tv while both monitors are using it freezes nvidia-settings like I asked it to /0 [23:25] or is it /-1 [23:26] tragic thing is that I have 2x nvidia 6800gt cards, but only 1 agp slot [23:31] !9.10 [23:31] Ubuntu 9.10 (Karmic Koala) was the eleventh release of Ubuntu. !End-Of-Life on April 29th 2011, see http://ubottu.com/y/karmic for details.
