hellslingerhow do I connect two shapes in calligra flow? I've selected the tool, but I'm unable to figure out how to connect shapes03:06
Daskreechhellslinger: Umm not sure let me look03:06
DaskreechNeevr tried flow :)03:06
hellslingerit seems like a perfect program, but I can't do the most basic thing03:07
DaskreechHa ha well I guess we have different descriptions of perfect03:08
hellslingerwell.. seem is the key word there03:09
hellslingerso for one of the control points, I was able to connect to another shape03:09
hellslingerbut the rest of the control points don't turn into a connection tool when I hover03:10
hellslingerand I don't know how to make it do that03:10
hellslingeroooh if I create any new connection points on a shape, I can no longer connect it03:12
hellslingerbut fresh shapes that haven't been modified are able to connect03:12
iharpdaskreech: In response to your response at 18:44 about the support of my ATI radeon 9200 SE on 12.04. I'm trying to figure out if there is any support for it without live cd or using  lspci -nn | grep VGA.03:18
Daskreechiharp: Do you mean if it will boot?03:19
iharpDaskreech: It will boot but there weren't any proprietary drivers for it and the open gl was an issue from my past experience with it on 12.0403:20
Daskreechah03:21
iharpI've got 4 video cards and none of them work on 12.04... :(03:22
iharpmake that 503:22
Daskreechall the same make?03:23
iharpno. Ill list them03:23
iharpATI radeon 9200 SE, Geforce2 MX400, two other nvidia cards with no lable so im not sure what they are, and my integrated Geforce 6150SE nForce 430/PCI/SSE203:26
Daskreechthe kernel doesn't identify them?03:26
iharpThey give out video and thats about it.. They all work on 11.10 though.03:26
Daskreechwow03:27
iharpperfectly with prop drivers03:27
Daskreechdid you try 12.10 ?03:27
iharpYeah03:27
Daskreechhow'd that go?03:27
iharpJust video, I had no openGL support on any of them03:27
iharpI think the H.A. was off on a few as well03:28
iharp12.10 doesn't work with my macbook 1,1 either..lol or anything after hardy.. :(03:28
iharpI call it bad luck... or demons.. possibly demons...03:29
DaskreechDaemons03:30
iharpNo.. i actually meant demons..lol03:30
iharpit was a joke... :p03:31
DaskreechI know :)03:33
DaskreechSo was the daemong03:33
Daskreechs/g/s03:33
iharp lol03:34
DaskreechI don't know how to check if something works with out checking it03:39
DaskreechI would guess that checking is a better way03:40
iharpIs there a list somewhere with compatiable video cards on 12.04?03:41
iharpMaybe that could get me in the right direction03:42
iharpI only found one on the main sight but it didn't say anything about 12.0403:42
iharpsite*03:42
DaskreechI don't think I'd trust that list if it did exist03:46
iharpWouldn't be accurate?03:47
DaskreechRight03:52
Daskreech it would be missing cards03:52
Daskreechsometimes it would be subjective (the person just didn't test correctly) and probably would not take note of driver updates03:52
DaskreechRedhat I trust for this. The Ubuntu Community? not so much03:53
iharpWhat about Suse?03:53
Daskreechiharp: I've not looked at the lists they keep up but depending on who's in charge that might be reliable.03:57
DaskreechIt really depends on the running of checklists and methodology03:58
iharpdaskreech: Thanks for all your insight. I appreciate it03:58
DaskreechThere are very strict guidelines on that for Redhat and they have whole depts that keep that up to date03:58
iharpwow. nice03:58
DaskreechSuse could have one person but as long as they vigilant about following the checklists then that would work as well03:59
DaskreechUbuntu has guidelines put up but afaik there is no way to know if the data submitted is followed ( I have no reason to think they didn't follow them) and if anyone does follow ups (I have no reason to think that anyone does that at all)04:00
DaskreechIn theory once you have the same kernel/driver it doesn't matter what flavour of linux you are running04:00
DaskreechBut redhat and debian are out of the running as they are jsut so old compared to the rest of the landscape04:01
contrastGreets, everyone... Any packaging experts around?04:01
iharpDaskreech: yeah I've been looking at all the differences. I've been a linux user for about 6 months now so I'm still fairly new to everything, but it seems like the linux portion of the world is a lot better even if you do have a few compatibility issues here and there.04:04
Daskreechcontrast: want to ask your next question?04:04
Daskreechiharp: Welcome to Linux and KDE :)04:04
iharpUbuntu and it's variants have been my main focus04:04
iharpthanks04:05
contrastI recently made a number of packages, following this guide - http://is.gd/TWpHJh - to a T, and now I'm wanting to upload them to a PPA. I'm really hoping there's a way I can easily extract the necessary .changes files from the .debs I've already put a good amount of work into..?04:05
Daskreechcontrast: Jsut edit the changelog if I understand you04:06
Daskreechiharp: Ubuntu and it's buntuites are nice. They ahve a very friendly community for learnign04:07
Daskreechlearning04:07
contrastDaskreech: Erm, that's the thing - the only changelog files I have are already cooked into the packages I'm working with. I can extract them, but they're still just in <package-name>/usr/share/doc/changelog.gz and <package-name>/usr/share/doc/changelog.Debian.gz04:08
contrastDaskreech: And what I'm needing in order to upload to a PPA is <package-name>_<version>_source.changes04:10
contrastGood seeing you're still around, by the way, Daskreech. I'm pretty sure I remember you helping me out quite a while back. :)04:12
Daskreechcontrast: :-)04:12
Daskreechcontrast: ok hold on04:13
contrastDaskreech: Thanks.04:13
iharpWhat are the major differences in 11.04 and 11.10?04:15
L3topiharp, again... if you could just boot to a live disk just to get the hardware output, I can tell you if it is supported by fglrx. I know them by chipset/pci-id... not the info you gave. I know them all, but by different designation.04:19
contrastiharp: Maybe most notably for Kubuntu - KDE 4.6 vs. 4.7 (http://kde.org/announcements/4.7/)04:20
iharpL3top: I am. I'm going to install 12.04 and run the bit. I'll just compile a list of outputs on my cards and come back with the results04:21
iharp*run live disk04:21
L3topOr, iharp I can give you a regex grep to run that will tell you.04:21
L3topIf it returns a result... it will not be supportedd. If no result, then fglrx is safe.04:22
iharpok, that sounds great.04:22
iharpthank you04:22
DaskreechL3top: so that tests for things that work and doesn't say anything?04:24
L3topWell... I can certainly just change it a bit to do the opposite... but it is easier to grep the things it doesnt cover than the things it does.04:26
L3topIt is just part of a chunk of things I do for autodetection.04:26
iharpL3top: Do you have a link for it?04:28
iharpL3top: or is it something you could pastebin?04:28
L3topwell I am adjusting it a bit iharp. It makes more sense to give you a clearer output... and I am a little more aggressive than need be because this is part of an autoinstallation, and I just dont want to bother with certain chipsets that require massage to work... just give me a moment.04:29
iharpL3top: take your time. I'm just messing around with a few things over here anyway04:30
Daskreechcontrast: you read https://help.launchpad.net/Packaging/PPA/BuildingASourcePackage already ?04:31
contrastDaskreech: Not yet, mainly because it's not immediately relevant to what I'm doing so far (I'm just packaging little stuff that doesn't need compiling right now, like scripts and theme items, hence the previously linked "Debian Binary Package Building HOWTO").04:34
contrastDaskreech: Erm, sorry, seems I had that last link you gave confused for another one... <reading>04:36
contrastDaskreech: Okay, yeah... Unless I'm missing something, it seems that's still just geared towards packaging stuff that actually has to be compiled. Right now I'm just working with scripts and binary content. :\04:39
L3topiharp: rad=$(lspci -nn | grep 'VGA' | grep -Ei '((R.)([2-5])|(9|X|ES)(1|2?)([0-9])(5|0)0|Xpress)'); if [[ -n "$rad" ]]; then echo "fglrx will not work on this card"; else echo "fglrx safe to install"; fi04:39
iharpThanks. I'll try running that here after I dl this 32bit distro and let you know how it works out for me.04:40
L3topiharp actually... that could provide a false result if there is something non-vga listed use this instead: rad=$(lspci -nn | grep -w 'VGA' | grep -Ei '((R.)([2-5])|(9|X|ES)(1|2?)([0-9])(5|0)0|Xpress)'); if [[ -n "$rad" ]]; then echo "fglrx will not work on this card"; else echo "fglrx safe to install"; fi04:41
Daskreechcontrast: Ok04:42
Daskreechcontrast: then get a .changes file either from debuild or someone else and just edit it to say what you need04:43
Daskreech new wallpapers or what changes have been put in the script etc04:43
Daskreechthat should be fine04:43
iharpok. one last question. I know this sounds crazy, but... Is it possible to take a DvD and install multiple bootable isos, while installing something on the disk that would allow you to choose which image to boot from?04:44
contrastDaskreech: Ahh, okay... So how do I generate a changes file?04:44
Daskreechfrom debuild04:44
Daskreechif anythign read up on debuild and that should be a good place to start04:44

c2tarunHi, do anyone have any idea about vsftpd?04:45
Daskreechcourse the less code you are putting together the mroe likely you'd jsut hand code the changes04:45
iharpSay a DvD with 12.04 and 11.10 on iL3top: was that for me?04:45
Daskreechiharp: pretty easily04:45
c2tarunI installed vsftpd and copied few files to /srv/ftp. Now I want to download these files to my another machine on wifi, how can I do it?04:45
L3topyes iharp.04:45
iharpthank you04:45
L3topnp04:46
DaskreechI had a DVD with 9 OSes on it. To be even crazier it had a VM on it so you can boot the DVD into an OS then from that OS start a VM with the DVD and show off other OSes04:46
Daskreechc2tarun: ftp or sftp. Your choice04:46
c2tarunDaskreech, its my first time so I'll start with ftp first. then within few hours I'll try sftp also04:47
Daskreechc2tarun: what OS is on the other machine?04:47
c2tarunwindows04:47
Daskreechif you have filezilla it will get you both ftp and sftp04:48
c2tarunthere is also Ubuntu on that, but I will try with windows, as my roomies prefer windows04:48
c2tarunon windows?04:48
DaskreechYes04:48
c2tarunDaskreech, Thanks :) I'll try04:48
DaskreechWell presuming that you want to get the fiels from /srv/ftp04:48
c2tarunyup04:48
Daskreechwhich is on the unix box04:48
c2tarunDaskreech, yup04:49
Daskreechif you want to restrict them to those files then ftp will work (which vsftpd provides)04:49
Daskreechif you just want them to get access to grab files then you can set up a ssh account they can sftp over04:49
Daskreechyour choice04:49
Daskreechon their side it looks exactly the same so they wouldn't care04:50
c2tarunDaskreech, ok, let me look for some tutorial on creating ssh acounts.04:50
Daskreechc2tarun: sudo apt-get install ssh04:51
Daskreechc2tarun: done04:51
c2tarunDaskreech, thanks :) I was looking for configuring and creating other stuffs on ssh. Frankly I never used it :(04:52
Daskreechc2tarun: it's just remote access04:53
Daskreechbut has some nice perks like a fake ftp access that's encrypted04:53
c2tarunok, where can I know more about it?04:54
c2tarunDaskreech, I just tried to access my machine from filezilla I am not getting copy or download option.04:56
c2tarundo I need to add any file permission to file in /srv/ftp?04:57
Daskreechc2tarun: I think so. You made an ftp user?04:57
c2tarunno04:57
c2tarunhow?04:57
Daskreechhow did you authenticate? Or do you have anon ftp access?04:58
c2tarunDaskreech, I was trying for anonymous access.04:59
Daskreechah ok04:59
Daskreechhttp://www.g-loaded.eu/2008/12/02/set-up-an-anonymous-ftp-server-with-vsftpd-in-less-than-a-minute/05:00
c2tarunDaskreech, I think this one will help. Thanks :)05:02
DaskreechSure05:02
c2tarunDaskreech, one more help, in the tutorial its talking that vsftp.conf is in /etc/vsftpd/vsftpd.conf but in my pc it in /etc/vsftpd.conf so should I create new conf file here only? or should I create a folder?05:04
Daskreechc2tarun: No use the one that you have05:04

c2tarunbackup of default vsftpd.conf05:05
DaskreechIt's absolutlely useless until 3 minutes after you really needed it05:05
c2tarunohhh...05:05
c2tarunDaskreech, everything on that page is similar to the setting I have. In /srv/ftp folder the file I have is with permission rw-r-----  do you think I have to give read permission to everyone root, user, group?05:11
Daskreechc2tarun: did you test this before?05:12
c2tarunDaskreech, no, I thought I shouldn't change permission of any file on root partition.05:12
Daskreechc2tarun: :) I wouldn't count /srv/ftp as on the root partition05:13
c2tarunohh.. OK :) I'll try giving read permission to everyone05:13

contrastGreets, everyone... Any packaging experts around? I used this guide - http://tldp.org/HOWTO/html_single/Debian-Binary-Package-Building-HOWTO/ - to make a bunch of packages (mainly for scripts, themes and whatnot) and I've been trying to figure out how to upload them to a PPA. I'm assuming I need to use debuild to generate the necessary .changes files from the .debs I already have, but I've been unable to figure out how. Any help would be much appreciated.16:16
BluesKajcontrast, best to ask in #kubuntu-devel16:24
contrastThanks, BluesKaj16:25

BluesKaju19809, have you tried the recommended nvidia driver in aadditional drivers in kmenu>apps>system18:04

mindspinespecially the "popup" mesages are not userfriendly in my eyes18:59

L3topmindspin: K button/applications/settings/system settings/application appearance   & workspace appearance   /colors19:06
mindspinL3top: I tried to solve it there, with no result yet, but I#ll have another try19:06
mindspinthe other, more important problem is that my broadcom wireless-device is not recognized (its a thinkpad t43)19:07
mindspinI installed severals packages with no effect, but I#m sure there is a solution, ucle google did not really help in may case19:08

BluesKajL3top, yeah are some legacy firmware info in that URL , not just the bcm4319:17
mindspinI love you guys, card is up, I can ping the gateway, but names are not resolved19:19
L3topI believe resolv.conf is depreciated... but I would look there.19:20
mindspinthe wired card resolves fine19:21
mindspinI'll have a look19:21
mindspinthanks so far, the main problem was not knowing the right module19:21
mindspinthe rest will be solved with a bitt of fiddling around19:22
mindspingreat to be back in the kubuntian world19:22
DaskreechL3top: Really?19:36
DaskreechL3top: what's the replacement for resolv.conf ?19:37
Daskreechmindspin: Welcome back!19:37
L3topNot sure that it is accurate Daskreech... someone who generally knows things, cant remember who, in #ubuntu said this a few weeks back... I will try and figure out19:38
DaskreechL3top: Ok I'll try find out as well19:39
L3topresolvconf (tool)19:40
L3tophttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/PrecisePangolin/ReleaseNotes/UbuntuServer/ http://www.stgraber.org/2012/02/24/dns-in-ubuntu-12-04/19:45
L3topediting the resolv.conf seems to be overwritten according to docs, each boot... so that tool is used to manage it now19:46
L3topThough this may just be for serving...19:46
L3top"resolvconf is now used to manage /etc/resolv.conf on all Ubuntu systems."  so... guess that is that... though... that tool isn't installed on my 1204 kubu desktop... so... who knows. I guess maybe that is just if you want to change it.19:51
BluesKajyes l3 Daskreech , list your dns servers here now , /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/head,  it will write them into /etc/resolv.conf ...it's weird but it works19:53

stripehi all, kubuntu12.04 64bit. having problems when  opening the home directory with nautilus from a desktop icon, the file opens then "greys out" for about 3 -5 seconds before it opens on the correct home folder. any ideas?23:09
DaskreechGrays out?23:13
DaskreechYou just installed nautilus on Kubuntu ?23:14
stripeDaskreech: the new window is totlay grey, no text or anything, my bad its the standard Dolphin sorry.23:15
DaskreechAh23:15
DaskreechHow many files do you have in ~ ?23:15
DaskreechThat only happens with me in one directory but it's chock full of files23:16
stripevery few, about 15 too 20 files and the bigest is a 56Mb mp4 video23:17
DaskreechThat should be fine. Does it do it everytime you open it?23:18
Daskreech As in it's not just the first time?23:18
stripeDaskreech: It happens about 20% of the time23:19
Daskreechif you close it and reopen it does it sometimes happen or does it only do it if you haven't opened it for a while?23:19
stripeDaskreech: mainly after it has not been opened for a while23:20
Daskreechstripe: Hmm ok cache perhaps>?23:21
DaskreechI'd probably open it from the konsole and see if it emits a notice before it goes grey23:21
stripeDaskreech:  have got 8Gb ram,  will try from Terminal23:22
Daskreechstripe: ah not thecache I was thinking of23:22
stripeDaskreech:  no messages when opening from Konsole.23:24
DaskreechIT went grey?23:25
stripeDaskreech: no it just opened as it is supposed too23:25
DaskreechThat's good I suppose23:28
stripeDaskreech: I will try leaving it for a while and then try again opening from console and see if that does make a difference, thanks for the help mate23:29
