| Logos01 | Hello, all. I... need some help with something. I just did a clean install of Kubuntu 12.04, followed by sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade -y && reboot. | 00:39 |
|---|---|---|
| Logos01 | I have the strangest thing going on: while ping resolves my local network hosts against the search domain, ssh does not. | 00:39 |
| Logos01 | So for example if I ping hypervisor, it resolves (properly) against hypervisor.local. | 00:39 |
| Logos01 | But if I attempt ssh hypervisor, it does *NOT* resolve against against hypervisor.local | 00:40 |
| Logos01 | (If I execute ssh hypervisor.local -- that works fine.) | 00:40 |
| Logos01 | My DNS settings have not been changed in months. | 00:41 |
| windbuntu | who is in charge of kubuntu now? if riddel is off the project, then who makes sure it gets done properly? | 00:57 |
| Logos01 | windbuntu: It is my understanding that it is now relegated to the same status as all other 'spins' of Ubuntu -- of which none have dedicated-purpose staffing. | 01:00 |
| windbuntu | wow, no dedicated staffing. I am surprised. Oh well if they all run that way I guess it will be ok. | 01:01 |

| tdn | I have a Kubuntu VM in virtualbox. It has suddenly stopped automatically adjusting the screen resolution when I resize the VM window. I have vboxadditions installed. How do I fix this? Is this a problem that should be addressed in vbox or in KDE? | 07:46 |
| flipscript | I upgraded kubuntu now my Virtualbox doens't even work. | 08:01 |
| flipscript | Tried reinstalling and rebuilding the kernel, I'm now looking at installing Ubunut. FML, linux is so frustrating sometimes | 08:01 |
| coder2 | Hello. Please help me with oneiric upgrade. I've started the process and it does nothing after downloading new packages. The window is not responsible and there are no disk activities. I can see "Preparing mounting all" message. | 08:04 |
| coder2 | I've had the same problem yesterday on an other computer. That system has got into ruined state after reboot. I've spent hours to get in running again. | 08:06 |

| coder2 | phoenix_firebrd: hello | 08:15 |
| phoenix_firebrd | coder2: did you get any error messages? | 08:16 |
| phoenix_firebrd | coder2: you are updating to 11.10? | 08:17 |
| coder2 | phoenix_firebrd: The window is empty now. I can see "AttributeError: 'KDEInstallProgressAdapter' object has no attribute 'read'" in /var/log/dist-upgrade/main.log | 08:17 |
| coder2 | phoenix_firebrd: yes. 11.10 to 12.04 | 08:17 |
| wwwolf | Hi, I have al little problem with powertop - it is working fine so far and the power consumption of my laptop is next to optimum, however when booting it always suspends also my Logitech USB wireless receiver, so that the mouse stops working. How can I manually exclude the USB receiver? | 08:18 |
| phoenix_firebrd | coder2: did you follow the instructions given in the release notes in kubuntu website? | 08:18 |
| coder2 | phoenix_firebrd: sure. Exactly. | 08:18 |
| wwwolf | I always have to enter powertop and switch the receiver manually from good to bad | 08:18 |
| phoenix_firebrd | coder2: let me check something | 08:19 |
| phoenix_firebrd | coder2: did you use muon updater? | 08:21 |
| coder2 | phoenix_firebrd: yes | 08:21 |
| phoenix_firebrd | coder2: can you upgrade from bash? | 08:23 |
| phoenix_firebrd | coder2: try this command "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" | 08:24 |
| coder2 | phoenix_firebrd: I haven't tried. I've just entered here right when the window hanged. It is still on the desktop. | 08:24 |
| phoenix_firebrd | coder2: you mean the konsole window hanged? | 08:25 |
| coder2 | phoenix_firebdr: Yesterday I've finished the upgrade on other computer after the same problem, but I've done a mistake: reboot.After reboot even apt was broken. And I've spent hours on force installing debs from local apt cache before the system got into hardly-ever healthy state. | 08:27 |
| coder2 | phoenix_firebrd: what do you recommend to do now? | 08:28 |
| phoenix_firebrd | coder2: force close the hanged window, try upgrading the system by the terminal(no gui) way. if there is a dependency issue or broken packages use the "repair dependency issues" option in recovery mode | 08:30 |
| coder2 | phoenix_firebrd: Should I close the hanged window? I even do not know which process ons it | 08:30 |
| coder2 | phoenix_firebrd: Ok, I'll try it now | 08:31 |
| phoenix_firebrd | coder2: ok | 08:31 |
| coder2 | phoenix_firebrd: apt-get dist-upgrade claims about broken dependencies. I've started it again with -f option | 08:35 |
| coder2 | phoenix_firebrd: I suspect that the problem exists on the systems with russian language pack installed. I've managed to upgrade one system smoothly. As far as I remember that system las English language pack only and "en_US" system locale. | 08:39 |
| phoenix_firebrd | coder2: In that case i have no idea how to solve that issue | 08:40 |
| flipscript | Any ideas on the virtual box issue. I'm at a loss. I've rebuilt the kernel, reinstalled using the the Muon software manager. But I still get the "Kernel driver not installed (rc=-1908)" | 08:48 |
| flipscript | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1885936 I followed this but to no avail | 08:49 |
| phoenix_firebrd | flipscript: try in #ubuntu | 08:51 |
| flipscript | I'm running Kubuntu tho, is there a reason why there? | 08:51 |
| phoenix_firebrd | flipscript: less active presence here and since its a issue with the kernel, use can try in #ubuntu also | 08:52 |
| flipscript | Cool, thanks phoenix; I'll head over | 08:52 |

| BluesKaj | ikonia, yeah , a user was asking about his burg errors and I've read about it but as you say I didn't see many advantages | 10:52 |

| coder2 | Hello. Would you please help me. How to fix taskbar label colors on 12.04? The label texts are gray on gray - almost unreadable. | 10:58 |
| phoenix_firebrd | coder2: yw | 11:01 |
| BluesKaj | coder2, change your desktop theme , in system settings>workspace appearance | 11:03 |
| coder2 | BluesKaj: It doesn't help. Colors changing but taskbar fonts are still pale on pale. | 11:04 |
| phoenix_firebrd | coder2: i think you have to restart plasma-desktop to see the changes | 11:10 |
| coder2 | phoenix_firebird: After applying a new theme? You mean re-login? | 11:11 |
| coder2 | phoenix_firebrd: Should I re-login after applying a new color theme? | 11:15 |
| BluesKaj | coder2, no need | 11:16 |
| coder2 | BluesKaj, So changing of colors does not affect the problem. I could provide a screenshot, in Skype for example. | 11:17 |
| BluesKaj | just hit the prtscn , and paste in imagebin | 11:18 |
| stewart_ | Hey everyon | 11:21 |
| stewart_ | Anyone actually here? | 11:22 |
| BluesKaj | yes actually | 11:22 |
| stewart_ | oh cool | 11:22 |
| stewart_ | i have a quick question about Activities | 11:23 |
| stewart_ | just to make sure is Kubuntu using 4.8? | 11:23 |
| stewart_ | KDE 4.8* | 11:23 |
| BluesKaj | yup it is , activities isn't my srong suit tho | 11:24 |
| coder2 | BluesKaj: http://imagebin.org/211811 | 11:24 |
| phoenix_firebrd | stewart_: 4.8.2 precisely :) | 11:25 |
| stewart_ | ah ok, well hopefully somebody might respond. I just wanted to know if it was possible for a specific word document or spreadsheet to open for activities | 11:25 |
| phoenix_firebrd | coder2: sorry i was away | 11:25 |
| stewart_ | because specific websites can for each activity which is cool and some guys KDE review stated KDE 4.6 made this possible i think | 11:26 |
| stewart_ | but I havent been able to make it happen | 11:26 |
| coder2 | phoenix_firebrd: Take a look, please: http://imagebin.org/211811 | 11:26 |
| stewart_ | be rightb ack | 11:26 |
| phoenix_firebrd | coder2: ya i was doing that | 11:26 |
| phoenix_firebrd | coder2: thats the default | 11:26 |
| phoenix_firebrd | coder2: i am not using the air theme anymore because of the same issue, try another theme | 11:27 |
| BluesKaj | coder2, coder2 , check your GTK+ appearance widget settings in sysem settings>application appearance | 11:29 |
| BluesKaj | oops reapting myself again , again .... | 11:29 |
| coder2 | phoenix_firebrd: changing of widget style doesnot affect the taskbar. What do you mean saying "air theme" ? Where to turn it off? The desktop effects ? | 11:30 |
| phoenix_firebrd | coder2: no | 11:30 |
| lordievader | Hello | 11:30 |
| lordievader | How is everyone? | 11:30 |
| phoenix_firebrd | coder2: system settings->workspace appearance->desktop theme | 11:31 |
| BluesKaj | coder2, make sure you have KDE fonts in GTK applications checked , it's a guess | 11:32 |
| stewart_ | Hey lodie | 11:32 |
| phoenix_firebrd | BluesKaj: how can it affect the plasma-desktop? | 11:32 |
| lordievader | Does anyone know how to change the screen brightness in a tty? (xbacklight doesn't work, requires X) | 11:33 |
| BluesKaj | phoenix_firebrd, dunno , just a guess :) | 11:33 |
| coder2 | phoenix_firebrd: thank you. Air for netbooks looks better. | 11:33 |
| phoenix_firebrd | coder2: do you know you can install and use more awesome themes there? | 11:34 |
| stewart_ | Anyone use activities? | 11:35 |
| BluesKaj | hard to know what affects the fonts , there so many variables between kde, plasma anbd gtk , phoenix_firebrd | 11:35 |
| coder2 | phoenix_firebrd: There so much offered, but small thumbnails are not very informative. I'll take a look there. A bit later. Or advise your favorite theme, please. | 11:35 |
| phoenix_firebrd | BluesKaj: the only gtk app that is stoping me from the entire gtk stuff is google chrome/chromium | 11:35 |
| phoenix_firebrd | BluesKaj: our kde is written to eliminate gtk ;) | 11:36 |
| BluesKaj | phoenix_firebrd, sorry i don't get it | 11:36 |
| stewart_ | Has anyone used Maxthon web browser? | 11:36 |
| BluesKaj | well ,gtk must be accomomdated , that's the rule | 11:37 |
| coder2 | BluesKaj, GTK fonts are not involve the effect. | 11:37 |
| coder2 | Thank you all | 11:37 |
| stewart_ | its only on windows right now but as it grows i hope they cross to linux | 11:37 |
| BluesKaj | coder2, are you sure | 11:37 |
| BluesKaj | ? | 11:37 |
| phoenix_firebrd | coder2: try "caledonia" | 11:37 |
| phoenix_firebrd | coder2: yw | 11:37 |
| phoenix_firebrd | BluesKaj: kde doesnot contain gtk stuff | 11:38 |
| phoenix_firebrd | BluesKaj: except some rare apps like telepathy that uses some gtk libs | 11:39 |
| BluesKaj | I didn't say that coder2 , I said it may be affected and vice versa | 11:39 |
| coder2 | BluesKaj, Sorry. And thank you for your patience. | 11:40 |
| BluesKaj | why do the fonts suddenly change in sytem settings>application appearance for no apparent reason ...it happens here a lot both with root permissions and without | 11:41 |
| BluesKaj | font sizes that is | 11:43 |
| phoenix_firebrd | BluesKaj: i cant understand | 11:43 |
| BluesKaj | the difference is quite dramatic on a large monitor | 11:44 |
| BluesKaj | phoenix_firebrd, neither do I , it's a mystery to me | 11:44 |

| forgeaus | pandora? | 12:34 |
| forgeaus | the ancient mythic greek who was too curious about a box and opened it? | 12:36 |
| morgajel | pandora.com, the flash music site; sorry should have been more specific; this appears to be across multiple flash apps | 12:37 |
| morgajel | not sure if the problem is flash, alsa, or pulseaudio | 12:38 |
| BluesKaj | morgajel, maybe flash needs a reinstall | 12:40 |
| morgajel | BluesKaj: first thing I tried | 12:43 |
| morgajel | let me clear out my .pulse dir and reboot | 12:43 |
| BluesKaj | morgajel,well , I can't test the site , not available to Canada | 12:44 |
| morgajel | BluesKaj: I think I'm hearing the same thing with youtube | 12:44 |
| morgajel | it wasn't as pronounced in the video I checked | 12:44 |
| morgajel | but it was bad audio | 12:45 |
| BluesKaj | pulse installed ? | 12:45 |
| morgajel | yeah | 12:46 |
| BluesKaj | what about local audio ? | 12:46 |
| jameslord | hi all | 12:52 |
| jameslord | when i faild to connect to a server using ssh from kubuntu | 12:55 |
| jameslord | why ? | 12:55 |
| lordievader | jameslord: This could have a million reasons, what kind of error did you get? | 12:57 |
| BluesKaj | local server or on the internet , jameslord? | 12:57 |
| sky100 | i cant login to my kubuntu desktop | 12:59 |
| CruX| | hello how can I switch kubuntu kde desktop into netbook style ? | 13:00 |
| lordievader | Hey sky100, any idea why not? Does it give you any error? | 13:00 |
| sky100 | while tried opening FX it gave me the message "application crashed ... the application couldnt identify itself | 13:01 |
| morgajel | BluesKaj: strangely enough streaming audio via vlc does not stutter | 13:01 |
| stewart_ | type in plasma | 13:01 |
| sky100 | so i just rebooted .. & since then im not getting the login screen | 13:02 |
| lordievader | sky100: With FX do you mean the desktop effect? | 13:02 |
| stewart_ | oh | 13:02 |
| morgajel | BluesKaj: I suspect it's an interaction between flash/alsa/pulse, but then again I'm ignorant to the details of that crossroad | 13:02 |
| sky100 | no | 13:02 |
| lordievader | sky100: You get a black screen? | 13:02 |
| sky100 | yes .. with prompting me to log on | 13:02 |
| stewart_ | Hey can anyone help me out with Activities? Im just wondering if you can assign specific word documents to activities? My attempts with Libreoffice have not worked. | 13:03 |
| lordievader | sky100: What happens when you press alt + ctrl + f1? | 13:03 |
| BluesKaj | morgajel, alsa used to link to flash audio before pulse came along and on some audio onboard cards it's still possible to run without pulse , most pci audio cards need pulse tho | 13:04 |
| morgajel | o_0... I think torching the .pulse dir fixed it. | 13:04 |
| jameslord | lordievader password error:( but this password works on centos:( | 13:05 |
| sky100 | sorry lordievader | 13:05 |
| sky100 | connection prob | 13:05 |
| jameslord | BluesKaj that server is on internet | 13:05 |
| morgajel | BluesKaj: alright... I think I'm all set. I must have had a bad pulse config. | 13:06 |
| BluesKaj | cool , if it's true morgajel...i sure wouldn't mind if i could drop pulse | 13:06 |
| sky100 | nah . i didnt mean display setting in FX or something | 13:06 |
| morgajel | BluesKaj: to be clear pulse just regenn'd the config | 13:06 |
| morgajel | something was funky in it | 13:06 |
| sky100 | i simply tried to open FX | 13:06 |
| lordievader | jameslord: Have you tried it locally? (If you have the option) Also is it setup with ssh keys? | 13:06 |
| lordievader | sky100: I'm sorry, I'm not sure what you mean with FX... | 13:07 |
| BluesKaj | ok morgajel | 13:07 |
| sky100 | firefox | 13:07 |
| jameslord | lordievader that server is remote:( | 13:07 |
| lordievader | sky100: Ah Firefox, I usually call it FF :P | 13:07 |
| sky100 | k | 13:07 |
| sky100 | :p | 13:07 |
| lordievader | jameslord: But is it setup with key authentication? | 13:07 |
| lordievader | sky100: So what happens if you try the key combo? | 13:08 |
| sky100 | u mean ctrl+alt+del? | 13:09 |
| sky100 | ctrl+alt+f2 | 13:09 |
| sky100 | which one ? | 13:09 |
| lordievader | sky100: No, ctrl + alt + f(something 1~6) | 13:10 |
| sky100 | im not sure ... | 13:10 |
| sky100 | hmm .. didnt try that out | 13:10 |
| sky100 | its says xserver problem | 13:10 |
| sky100 | gui is not being detected ... | 13:10 |
| lordievader | sky100: You do not get a login promt? (Also not on another tty (2 or 3) | 13:11 |
| sky100 | video driver issue..... | 13:11 |
| sky100 | all its giving me ppp-desktop login .. | 13:11 |
| sky100 | then as I type "PPP" & then my root PW | 13:12 |
| jameslord | lordievader http://iyanwu.com/pastebin/showthread.php?tid=46 | 13:12 |
| jameslord | after ssh-keygen, should i restart my localhost? | 13:12 |
| lordievader | sky100: Yes? Can you then login? | 13:12 |
| sky100 | yes | 13:13 |
| sky100 | but | 13:13 |
| sky100 | it just says "Welcome Ubuntu 11.10 .. | 13:13 |
| sinthetek | i think i may have found a bug in kubuntu netbook taskbar settings.. seems when i re-add system tray (and possibly other widgets) it increases in width | 13:14 |
| sky100 | & then ppp@ppp-desktop :~$ .. | 13:14 |
| lordievader | jameslord: Do you know the ID of your server? Because it has changed he says, might be a man-in-the-middle. | 13:14 |
| lordievader | sky100: Well that is great, can you see if kdm is running? (ps aux|grep [k]dm) | 13:15 |
| sinthetek | nope, seems to just be the system tray widget... it's now filling like 90+% of the taskbar on my 11.6" netbook with unusuable space :P | 13:18 |
| sky100 | sorry lordievader , | 13:20 |
| sky100 | couldn't understand | 13:20 |
| lordievader | sky100: kdm is the login manager, to see if it is running we use the command ps (ps aux lists all of the processes) and then we let grep run through it and let it find kdm, so in other words: ps aux|grep [k]dm (if it gives output kdm is running) | 13:22 |
| sky100 | ok | 13:23 |
| sky100 | so what cmd i shd type after ppp@ppp-desktop:~$ | 13:23 |

| lordievader | sky100: ppp@ppp-desktop:~$ is your promt, like your terminal emulator like Konsole, it says user ppp is logged into ppp-desktop and is in the home dir. So you just have your bash shell there. | 13:25 |
| lordievader | sky100: so there you enter the ps command to see if kdm is running. | 13:25 |
| sinthetek | i think i may see my problem sorta... a version skew type thing | 13:27 |

| wolfgang | Hello. | 13:29 |
| wolfgang | I am new at Kubuntu and i got a problem with Phonon. Could somebody help me please? | 13:30 |
| designbybeck | what is Phonon wolfgang ? | 13:31 |
| wolfgang | designbybeck The sound properties in the kubuntu system properties | 13:34 |
| designbybeck | I thought that was Kmix | 13:34 |
| wolfgang | Well that's for volume properties | 13:36 |
| designbybeck | in that case I'm clueless can can't help ya! wolfgang ;) sorry | 13:36 |
| BluesKaj | ok wolfgang , what's the problem with phonon? | 13:36 |
| wolfgang | Thanks anyway designbybeck | 13:36 |
| designbybeck | now BluesKaj on the other hand wolfgang should be able to steer ya in the right direction | 13:37 |
| wolfgang | In the hardware priorities it is possible to change the priority of the sound output device | 13:37 |
| wolfgang | And also you can set your soundcard. | 13:38 |
| BluesKaj | do you mean device preferences , wolfgang ? | 13:38 |
| wolfgang | I got two soundcardes there. Only one is able to play sound (e.g. when i click on "test"). But everytime i set this as the card which should be used, it is changed. | 13:39 |
| wolfgang | Yes, BluesKaj, That's what I mean. Sorry | 13:39 |
| BluesKaj | wolfgang, did you recently install a new pci soundcard ? | 13:39 |
| wolfgang | No. I just installed Kubuntu on this PC a few hours ago. | 13:40 |
| sky100 | lordievader .. i was just away | 13:40 |
| sky100 | sorry | 13:40 |
| szal | /etc/modprobe.d/ <- create a new .conf file there that sets the load order of the sound modules, then reboot.. instructions are in the existing files | 13:41 |
| danielo_ | hey everybody | 13:42 |
| danielo_ | do You know how to install caligra in 12.04? | 13:42 |
| BluesKaj | szal, is that directed at wolfgang ? | 13:42 |
| lordievader | sky100: No that will just list all the processes, tpye: ps aux|grep [k]dm | 13:42 |
| sky100 | ok | 13:42 |
| szal | BluesKaj: yes | 13:43 |
| danielo_ | or any of You use caligra at 12.04?/ | 13:43 |
| szal | danielo_: if you type it correctly, you should find it -> calligra | 13:43 |
| BluesKaj | wolfgang, see szal instruction above | 13:44 |
| wolfgang | Well i will try. | 13:44 |
| danielo_ | wow :P | 13:44 |
| danielo_ | thanks :D | 13:44 |
| danielo_ | :D | 13:45 |
| wolfgang | By the way. The order is not the problem. The order stays. The problem is: If i change the soundcard in hardware and klick on Accept, go back and go to the settings again, the other soundcard is selected again. | 13:46 |
| szal | you mean, in KDE? | 13:46 |
| szal | iirc, that's a long-standing bug.. sad to hear it's still around | 13:47 |
| wolfgang | yes | 13:47 |
| szal | I think it was already present in KDE 4.5 | 13:47 |
| POQDavid | hi | 13:47 |
| POQDavid | i need help | 13:47 |
| wolfgang | Well... You think writing the .confg file will help nothing? | 13:48 |
| szal | if the load order isn't the problem, then it won't help.. unless you want to do that everytime you want to switch | 13:48 |
| POQDavid | my linux boots in to grub rescue mode | 13:48 |
| POQDavid | burg messed up grub | 13:49 |
| wolfgang | Sorry, i don't know what you mean with the second part of your sentence | 13:49 |
| POQDavid | anyone knows how to restore grub from the grub rescue mode? | 13:50 |
| szal | wolfgang: changing the .conf file & rebooting | 13:50 |
| POQDavid | i did google but didn't work | 13:50 |
| wolfgang | Well.. Not really. I allready rebootet and the order stayed fine. | 13:52 |
| BluesKaj | ok wolfgang , pass the cursor over the devices , note the one that is named "card 0", that's the card that's most likely the default in /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf , which may need to be edited | 13:55 |
| wolfgang | Is it possible to just "delete" one soundcard, so that the system has only one alternative? | 13:55 |
| BluesKaj | in phonon device preferences | 13:55 |
| wolfgang | Well.. | 13:56 |
| wolfgang | If i do what you say nothing happens | 13:56 |
| wolfgang | It nowhere shows "card 0" | 13:57 |
| BluesKaj | there should be a popup , if they're enabled | 13:57 |
| szal | wolfgang: you could blacklist the module for the card you don't want to appear, I guess | 13:58 |
| BluesKaj | wolfgang, pastebin your /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf | 13:58 |
| wolfgang | # autoloader aliases | 13:59 |
| wolfgang | install sound-slot-0 /sbin/modprobe snd-card-0 | 13:59 |

| Guest11945 | i just installed kubuntu | 14:14 |

| Guest11945 | i get a blinking black screen | 14:14 |
| Guest2140 | hi | 14:15 |
| Guest2140 | how do install the sun java jre7 ? | 14:15 |
| Resistance | !java | Guest2140 | 14:16 |
| ubottu | Guest2140: To just use java you need a "Java Runtime Environment" (JRE) and/or a browser plugin. If that is not sufficient you will need a "Java Development Kit" (JDK) aka "Software Development Kit" (SDK). Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java about how to install one of three current implementations. | 14:16 |
| Resistance | Guest2140: have you read that page yet? | 14:16 |
| wolfgang | Guest2140 You can use Muon to get most programs | 14:16 |
| Resistance | wolfgang: not Sun Java stuffs | 14:17 |
| Resistance | you still need to go get that and install it manually | 14:17 |
| Resistance | esp. for JRE7 | 14:17 |
| wolfgang | Resistance, I'm sorry, you're right. Muon only finds OpenJDK | 14:17 |
| Resistance | because Sun's stuff isnt in the repos | 14:18 |
| Resistance | incompatible licensing | 14:18 |
| wolfgang | BluesKaj Should anything happen after typing in that command? | 14:18 |
| BluesKaj | wolfgang, nothing happens if there are no errors , reboot | 14:18 |
| wolfgang | Yeah, Resistance, forgot that | 14:19 |
| * Resistance has actually reported (and subsequently taken down) a few other peoples' PPAs with later versions of Java6 from Sun than was last available in the repos in pre-Natty or w/e it was) | 14:19 | |
| Resistance | :) | 14:19 |
| wolfgang | :-) | 14:19 |
| wolfgang | BluesKaj: I will. Thank you for helping. I will tell you if it helped. | 14:19 |
| wolfgang | Hello again | 14:24 |
| wolfgang | BluesKaj it helped nothing. | 14:26 |
| wolfgang | There is still no sound and in the system tray it shows, that it wants to change to the other device again | 14:26 |
| BluesKaj | wolfgang, do you have another soundcard installed besides the onboard? | 14:28 |
| wolfgang | Yes. | 14:29 |
| BluesKaj | I asked you before , but yoiu didn't answer ..one of thses cards has to be blacklisted or changed in the bios , if you installed a pci or usb then the bios preference is the best route | 14:30 |
| wolfgang | The other soundcard is a PCI afaik | 14:31 |
| BluesKaj | wolfgang, then go into your bios , mostlikely the peripherals , and make the pci audio card the default , do not use the auto mode | 14:34 |
| wolfgang | Okay. I will try that. Thank you. You will hear if it worked | 14:34 |
| wolfgang | CU | 14:34 |
| spanner | mit-scheme package appears to be broken | 14:46 |
| wolfgang | Hello again | 14:49 |
| wolfgang | BluesKaj. Thank you very much. I disabled the onboard card and now it works | 14:49 |
| BluesKaj | wolfgang, right , you're lucky , I had to disable mine by blacklisting and everytime I upgrade I have do re-edit the alsa.conf file | 14:51 |
| wolfgang | Oh. Okay. | 14:51 |
| wolfgang | Thank you. But is that just a bug, that you can't really change this setting or what? | 14:51 |
| BluesKaj | my bios ndoesn't give me the option of choosing a pci card | 14:52 |
| wolfgang | So mine as well. I just had to disable the onboard card | 14:52 |

| temprelic | I haven't upgraded to the latest version yet, was trying to clean up and get rid of things first, but I did some file updates recently, not sure how that effects the outcome of this | 16:45 |
| BluesKaj | temprelic, you may need to a live cd to restore grub , if you have one | 16:47 |

| orated | I'd suggest you to ask in #konversation and #freenode as they can better address your questions :) | 17:45 |
| natman | BluesKaj: ya have that box ticked, when i click new printer i dont know what to do | 17:45 |
| Lewnatik | Okay, thank you. | 17:45 |
| orated | Welcome | 17:47 |
| BluesKaj | natman, do you have appsocket in the new printer list ? | 17:52 |
| natman | BluesKaj: yes top of the list | 17:52 |
| natman | BluesKaj: says "AppSocket/HP Jet Direct" | 17:53 |
| BluesKaj | try that , it should show network printer \ | 17:53 |
| BluesKaj | is the ubuntu printer an HP ? | 17:53 |
| natman | BluesKaj: what do i type in for Host? | 17:53 |
| natman | BluesKaj: yes its a HP | 17:54 |
| BluesKaj | natman, not sure , but you could try the ubuntu pc IP address , if you know what it is | 17:56 |
| natman | BluesKaj: ya just did that, nothing happened when i asked for test page ( it works fine from its local pc ) | 17:57 |
| natman | BluesKaj: i have the Device URI, starts "usb://......" how would i type that with the IP for the ubuntu machine | 17:58 |
| BluesKaj | maybe you could use the ipp ioption in that case , type usb://192.168.X.XX | 18:01 |
| BluesKaj | 192. etc being the actuall IP of course | 18:01 |
| natman | ok, just after clicking New Printer again in sys settings, im getting that little two rotating cirles symbol, perhaps its searching the network ( 3 computers at home ) | 18:03 |
| temprelic | downloading the latest iso file and hopefully a new live cd will help me get back into my system, don't want to do data recovery from a live cd if I don't have to | 18:08 |
| BluesKaj | temprelic, if the input device like mouse and KB are freezing , then grub may not be the poblem , it could be hardware driver problems | 18:11 |
| orated | I'm not able to install new themes for Login screen. System settings > Login Screen > Theme > Get New Themes even after selecting themes to download/install doesn't list it under Themes tab to enable. Is there a way to fix this? | 18:15 |
| temprelic | the computer forces into the grub menu and there is no 30second timer like the old ones and just sits there, so I have no clue on what is going on but the kb and mouse work in live cds | 18:16 |
| temprelic | was hoping for some way to clear whatever is forcing the computer into the grub menu so it tries a normal boot | 18:17 |
| lordievader | orated: You could download them from kde-look.org and install them manually. | 18:18 |
| temprelic | but I am not finding anything on that atm so I have no clue on what way to figure this out how to ge to a point to verify anything else is working or not on the computer | 18:19 |
| orated | lordievader: Yea, I'll try that. I wonder why the default way isn't working for me | 18:19 |
