Guest90244any recommendations for someone switchin from ubuntu to kubuntu? or is it pretty much the same with a different desktop manager03:36
DarthFrogGuest23901: Kubuntu is Ubuntu but with KDE instead of GNOME/Unity.03:58

switchkelI have a file in my memory stick called ".mpga" and I used the terminal program to try and track it down.  How do I find this file: .mpga ?  It's not listed in any directory.04:31
kb3gtnI cd to the root of the memory stick and do: find ./ | grep mpga04:32
Daskreechleft already04:32
kb3gtnseems to be the norm here..04:32

Laiamwhy is kde forcing java swing to use metal even if I tell my java program to use a different lookandfeel?05:45
DaskreechLaiam: Forcing?05:51
Laiamyeah... i consider it forced since I used the UIManager.setlookandfeel() thing to tell it to use another look and feel then ran the program and no change in gui05:52
Laiamit works fine in unity and gnome but not in kde05:53

Daskreechdoa: hi06:21
DaskreechLaiam: Well something is set wrong in the Javavariables then06:22
Daskreech Check the JAVAPATH?06:22
Laiamseriously? i'm using a fresh install of everything06:23
DaskreechLaiam: Yeah but it's a Java isue06:23
Laiamif i switch my desktop environment to unity or gnome the app uses the correct lookandfeel06:24
DaskreechLaiam: sorry tryin to fix another computer06:32
DaskreechLaiam: Can you dump your envoronment in UNity ?06:33
LaiamDaskreech: I've made progress uncommenting a line in the swing.properties file in the folder but its still not taking my modification to the systemlaf variable06:34
=== unleashed is now known as BLACK_VIKING
DaskreechLaiam: That is strange though06:36
LaiamDaskreech: kde doesn't tell java to use the gtklaf as the system laf so it defaults to the cross platform laf i'm trying to see how i can set the systemlaf to gtk now06:37
DaskreechLaiam: ok06:50
LaiamDaskreech: ok so for kde the program i was using used a shell script to open stuff so for now i've just jammed this little tidbit " -J-Dswing.systemlaf=com.sun.java.swing.plaf.gtk.GTKLookAndFeel" without the quotes into a line in the script that calls the actual program06:50
Laiamit still doesn't fix my systemlaf for programs overall...06:51
LaiamDaskreech: but at least I know it's not forcing java to be stupid on purpose rather it was left out overlooked or something06:52
DaskreechLaiam: thats what I would expect06:58
DaskreechLaiam: want to add that in a bug report06:59
LaiamI probably should06:59
Laiamthe gtk laf has improved a lot since java1.407:00
DaskreechLaiam: please do. Java packages should be setup correctly regardless of your DE07:01
LaiamDaskreech: its java's fault this time... I just looked through the ui manager class the system look and feel is defined as windows, gnome, or apple if not one of those then it returns the "cross-platform" laf07:17

DarthFrogAnyone here a dab had with KMail?17:38
DarthFrogMy wife wanted to stop KMail2 from automatically checking for mail, so naturally she deleted those POP accounts in KMail (Yes, I married her for her looks.)  Now she has no access to the mail in those accounts.  How can she get back access to her mail?  Note: all the mail was POPped in KMail1, then migrated to KMail2.17:38
DarthFrog There's 8.9 gig used in .kde/share/apps/kmail and I made a backup of that directory prior to doing the migration to Kmail2.17:38
Peace-DarthFrog: ahahahahah (Yes, I married her for her looks.)17:41
DarthFrogPeace-:  She calls herself my trophy wife. :-)17:41
Peace-funny dude17:42
DarthFrogI really wish she'd asked me beforehand about how to stop KMail from automatically downloading mail. :-(17:42
DarthFrogMind you, deleting her mail accounts certainly achieved that goal. :-)17:43

xeeHi, I'm running Kubuntu 12.04, when I plug-in my iphone it's not recognized and I can't even access the photos on it, I was able to get tethering to work well though, are there any packages that I'm missing ?19:13
designbybeckAnyone know how to do RAW/.CR2 thumbnail viewing in Dolphine?19:47
Daskreechdesignbybeck: you can use Digikam19:50
designbybeckhmmm... I'm using Darktable for my editing19:50
designbybecki was just looking for a easy way to  browse all my files in dolphine19:51
DaskreechYou can see the RAW files in dolphin?19:51
designbybeckno Darkreech that is what i'm trying to figure out19:54
Daskreechdesignbybeck: what is an example name of the files?19:54
designbybecksome places i have searched show to enable it in preview, but i odn't see "RAW" there... My file size preview is high enough19:54
designbybeck.CR219:55
DaskreechCanon Camera I take it?19:55
designbybeckyes19:55
Daskreechok what are you seeing now?19:55
xeehow about iphone mounting, is this something iphone can do? to see photos like it does in windows even without itunes installed19:58
Daskreechxee: You have to install libraries for it19:58
xeeI installed ifuse, is there anything else ?19:59
DaskreechI'm not sure never had an Iphone20:01
xeeok thanks20:02
Daskreechhttp://www.bitsbythepound.com/tethering-iphone-5-1-on-ubuntu-11-10-422.html20:02
DaskreechYou can try that20:03
xeeyes but that's for tethering not browsing files :)20:05
xeeI just want to access it like a flash20:05
xeeflash drive*20:05
Daskreechxee: far as I know you need to jail break it for that20:06
xeewell it is jailbroken actually and I can access the files over SSH but I wanted a faster way through the cable :)20:07
Daskreechyou can sshfs :)20:07
xeeok thanks :)20:08
Daskreechhttps://help.ubuntu.com/community/PortableDevices/iPhone is a year old20:08
Daskreechgenerally everytime Apple updates the phone it breaks the access methods so I'd suppsoe this is pretty out of date now20:08
xeeah-ha I see :)20:09

=== ronnoc_ is now known as ronnoc
designbybeckDaskreech: It looks like the answer is installing: kdegraphics-strigi-plugins20:34
designbybeckSO if anyone else is tryihng to viwe RAW/CR2 thumbnails in Dolpin hyou need to install: kdegraphics-strigi-plugins20:34
Daskreechdesignbybeck: Hmm interesting Not the Lipi pligins?20:52
DaskreechKipi?20:52
designbybeckno that didn't seem to do it Daskreech20:53
Daskreechdesignbybeck: Well ok :) I guess that makes some sense21:00
ybiti'm curious if there's something like a listing of commits for the kubuntu distro21:06
ybit...because i'd like to compare development activity between distros21:07
Daskreechybit: commits?21:10
DaskreechI dunno distros are just collections of a projcts21:10
Daskreechyou'd have to look at the projects that are local to the  distro which isn't at all a fair comparison21:10
Daskreechgoing on the road soon be back21:10
ybitthat's what is tripping me up21:14
ybiti read somewhere opensuse had over a thousand bug fixes21:15
ybitin its last official release21:15

XabsterHi, I'm looking for a comparison between Ubuntu and Kubuntu - do you know any such articles?22:35
ronnocXabster: The only differences are the desktop environments used23:08
XabsterOkay, ronnoc, so in theory I could install some packages and change my desktop and basicly have Kubuntu?23:11
ronnocWell, if you mean taking stock Ubuntu and installing the KDE Plasma Desktop, then you're mainly right. There are are few tweaks and scripts that Kubuntu uses that are unique to Kubuntu23:12
ronnocBut in practical terms, yo'd be mostly correct, as they use the same repositories23:13
XabsterWould this mean that all current applications are also available for kubuntu?23:13
Xabsterall *my*23:13
ronnocYes. For example, I use Ubuntu One and Ubuntu Software Center on my Kubuntu installation23:13
ronnocAlso, if KDE is installed right, you'll have a choice on login of which desktop environment you would like to use for that session23:14
XabsterI see. Can I be so bold as to ask why there's not a "conversion" script available to convert Ubuntu to Kubuntu so you don't have to have 2 separate images? :)23:15
ronnocProbable because a stock Kubuntu installation and copying over relevant files to your new Home directory would be safer and likely just as fast23:16
ronnoc*probably23:16
XabsterI see.23:17
XabsterSo basically I can expect what I'm used to except that it looks nicer23:17
ronnocYou can also install Ubuntu and Kubuntu side-by-side on the same hard drive, and select the one you want to run at start-up. Lots of different options :)23:17
XabsterYeah, I'm thinking of doing it in virtual box before I change or dual boot it23:17
ronnocWell, we think KDE is nicer. But there are defiantly things I like about Ubuntu as well, like U123:18
XabsterI don't know what that is so I guess I won't be missing it23:18
ronnocIt's kind of the best of both worlds23:18
ronnoc*u1 = UbuntuOne23:18
XabsterUbuntu One the sync thingy like dropbox kinda?23:19
ronnocYea. I use it daily. But 99 pct of all my other apps are pure KDE23:19
Xabsterhold on, you said you had ubuntu one on Kubuntu earlier...? :)23:19
ronnocI do have UbuntuOne on my Kubuntu, yes. As of 12.04, UbuntuOne is even written in Qt, which fits righ tat home natively in KDE :)23:20
Xabsterand a side question: there's 2.5 gb difference between the 700mb image and DVD 64 bit image... is ALL that language stuff?23:20
ronnoc*right at23:21
XabsterI can't believe that there's 2.5gb translations ... is that right? oO23:21
Xabsteroh nvm, i misread23:21
Xabsterthere's live version, installer and alternate installer23:22
ronnoc...and the DVD, for lanuages like you said23:22
ronnocI just use the CD23:22
Xabsterbesides, who cares when you can download with 4MB/s :p23:22
ronnocXabster: lucky :p23:23
Xabsteri ordered my internet 10 days before the end of a campaign so i felt lucky23:25
Xabsterright when they stopped the campaign they started a new campaign for 10/10mbit faster internet for the same price23:25
Xabsterso i could have had 45/45 for the same price :(23:25
ronnocXabster: where are you located?23:26
Xabsterdenmark and i pay 169 dkk per month the first 6 months23:27
Xabsterthat's about 30$23:27
ronnocwow. I pay $40/US month for 500kbs :/23:28
ronnocthough to be fair, I do not live in a city23:28
XabsterI'm quite lucky, you 1) they already had fiber in this street and 2) the installation was part of the campaign23:28
Xabsterwhich is normally 2500 DKK to get the cable dug in23:29
Xabster280 or so dollars installation plus a fee to turn on the internet23:29
Xabsterno23:29
Xabster480 dollars23:29
ronnocEurope in general has passed the 'States for technology infrastructure. Our continent is just so big geographically. It's both a blessing and a curse :p23:30
ronnocAlthough we get high speeds in the large cities or if you are near a University23:30
Xabsteri don't think you can get this kind of speed in the cities in the US for this price, can you?23:30
Xabsteri haven't heard for sync fiber lines at low prices anywhere else than north europe23:31
Xabsterfor private customers that is23:31
ronnocI don't think that fast here, no. But if you are on or near a major University you will get high speeds23:31
Xabsteri see23:32
XabsterI can get up to 90/90 at affordable prices23:32
Xabster80$/month for 90/90 - if 2 people share it or a whole building of any kind with more residents share it, it's madly cheap23:32
Xabsterand it's allowed to share23:33
ronnocwow.23:33
ronnocBTW - we should take this to kubuntu-offtopic :p23:33
Xabsterlet's leave it =)23:33
Xabsteri'm about to install the DVD anyways23:33
ronnocgood luck! \23:34
