[05:03] <janet> can someone help- me with a java and flash install for firefox ?
[05:21] <DarthFrog> !java | janet
[05:21] <DarthFrog> !flash| janet
[05:58] <iharp> How do I tell my system where a shell script is? If I dropped the containing folder into ~/?
[05:59] <iharp> It's an executable for android_SDK.
[06:14] <DarthFrog> Is that directory in your path?  The current directory isn't, by default, unless it has been explictly specified.  Use "echo $PATH" to see which directories are in your path and stick the executable in one of them.
[06:15] <DarthFrog> Or specify the path to the executable in the command.
[06:46] <aetoxx> I am seeing the hand icon cursor instead of the usual one when I am not hovering over anything which should show this icon. How to solve that?
[06:47] <aetoxx> I cannot click on anything anymore as a result.
[06:47] <aetoxx> Keyboard still works.
[06:47] <aetoxx> Everything is also fully responsive, it's just the mouse.

[07:48] <Kintur> i'm fine too, thanks
[07:48] <Kintur> :)
[07:48] <aetoxx> The KDE Session Manager tries to open a file every single time I login. How can I make it stop doing that?
[08:08] <Kintur> I'm trying to install danger from the deep on kubuntu but I am not able...
[08:14] <xieyi> the plasma application launcher becomes very short. I have to scroll up and down to find the application to launch. Has anyone meet the same problem?
[08:16] <giantpune> hi, i have an issue with amarok.  ive been using it fine for months now.  but i just logged into my computer and now amarok wont see my music at all.  when i go to the settings and select my music folder and tell it to rescan, it doesnt do anything
[08:17] <giantpune> i am able to click on my music files and open them in other programs without any issues
[08:17] <giantpune> and when i run amarok from the terminal, id doesnt spit out any errors
[08:32] <mime111111> hi ppl; i want to all my experiences using linux known as bugs be posted in an especific place, for giving support in future releases, how can i do it? thank u
[08:32] <mime111111> or better asked, where?
[08:45] <mysteriousdarren> mime111111: launchpad I do believe
[09:35] <FezMiester> (lastest kubuntu) every time I try and apply changes to Muon (for 4 days) I get the massage that anothe program is controling the package system.  I can't shut off that other program because I don't know what it is. It's driving me up the wall!  updates work fine! ... what should I do? ;z))
[09:36] <Tm_T> !aptlock | FezMiester
[09:38] <FezMiester> Ok TKs,  (yes front end apps have crashed.  terminal:  sudo fuser -vki /var/lib/dpkg/lock;sudo dpkg -configure -a
[09:38] <FezMiester> i'm going to paste in like that..
[09:39] <FezMiester> I allso can not get OBm to create a database, that error is persistant, but that's a different matter in my mind..
[09:41] <FezMiester> lib/dpkg/lock  does not exist ;z(
[09:42] <FezMiester> brand new machine 5 days old-
[09:42] <FezMiester> fresh install
[09:53] <FezMiester> well that does show that OBM has a storage configuration problem in terminal ;z))
[09:53] <FezMiester> thanks--
[09:59] <FezMiester> good Muon got past the imdiate first hurtle.  - Now back to the OBM error 1045 (28000 user access denied at  'localhost' (using passsword: yes)
[09:59] <FezMiester> that makes it sound like a password issue. - maybe it doesn't like having the same password as the admin... fatal?
[10:03] <FezMiester> so.. Do the passwords on OBM all have to b be uniqe of each other? em passY/N   or uniqe of all the other system passwords? Y/N..
[10:04] <FezMiester> that's all I can make out of the above error code I posted..
[10:04] <Tm_T> OBM?
[10:16] <FezMiester> If a package, (OBm) has dependency problems.. you've installed it. it failed, (storage never worked) and you market it for reinstall and it still says dependency problems. then the system isn't set up right.  roll back part of it.. or packages OBM needs haven't been updated to the curent distrobution level.. right? it's nnot like the pkg manager is failing to find them or install them correctly..........................
[10:16] <FezMiester> market=marked
[10:20] <Tm_T> what is this OBM
[10:21] <nandhu> hi how to enable and dissable the usb mass storage only using the command line without rebooting
[10:21] <nandhu> in ubuntu terminal
[10:22] <Tm_T> nandhu: you are familiar with mount command?
[10:25] <FezMiester> Tm-T OBm open business management/er
[10:25] <FezMiester> group of software like open office
[10:26] <Tm_T> ah, I notice it's in the repositories
[10:27] <FezMiester> SQL - is the key word i think of Obm with...
[10:27] <FezMiester> but it does much more
[10:27] <FezMiester> I have been looking for that perfect blend of contact management, project management, database management, etc..
[10:28] <FezMiester> I know it's in  sql but getting that right interface is a b--
[10:28] <nandhu> yes mount i know
[10:28] <nandhu> TM_T
[10:28] <nandhu> I KNOW Mount commands
[10:29] <nandhu> i can also edit the automount rules but the problem is all that works after reboot only i think
[10:29] <Tm_T> nandhu: you can mount and unmount "on-the-fly" so to speak
[10:29] <nandhu> yes
[10:29] <FezMiester> what do you loose if you reboot nandhu?
[10:30] <nandhu> i am working in some customized linux project and i am very new to this linux just now learning basics
[10:31] <nandhu> and just now my task is some how to do that i tried many but all come only after reboot
[10:31] <FezMiester> don't worry you in the right place nandhu
[10:31] <FezMiester> patience is king
[10:32] <nandhu> or if you have some links just past here i will go through and test those methods
[10:33] <Tm_T> nandhu: maybe this helps https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Mount/USB#Manually_Mounting
[10:34] <FezMiester> when you go through settings in the gui you find your usb hubs -interal.. t least i do and i'm on a netbook.. so
[10:35] <FezMiester> usb is live nyway... it doesn't load.-
[10:35] <FezMiester> your hubs aren't connecting to the system or your hardware isn't finding them?
[10:36] <FezMiester> my solution to these problems is to go through the pkg manager and key word search until i find pakages that add /solve wht I need lol...
[10:36] <FezMiester> then I get into some problems.. like dependencies that are never fixed & I dunno why
[10:39] <nandhu> ok i will try
[10:40] <brejoc> hi @all
[10:56] <FezMiester> hope
[10:56] <FezMiester> hope yoru well. - later
[11:38] <fisher> yo!
[12:35] <FireCreep> 0hai
[12:36] <FireCreep> Seems I've messed up my Kubuntu desktop
[12:37] <FireCreep> it is an empty SNL, with two taskbars, of which the top one has the tray and Start menu and other such stuff, the bottom shows unsigned icons of running apps
[12:39] <FireCreep> This is totally broken
[12:41] <ArchangelSe7en> just delete one
[12:42] <mime111111> hi all, first of all, thanks. my question: rezising in konqueror with utube videos, doesnt make any result... any help? thnx
[12:43] <FireCreep> But the top bar doesn't show windows at all
[12:44] <FireCreep> konq is crap
[12:44] <FireCreep> get Chrome
[12:45] <mime111111> rekonq in oeniric was fine, why is in 12 not as there?
[12:45] <FireCreep> Chrome is still the king
[12:46] <mime111111> thnx FireCreep
[12:47] <FireCreep> If I showed a screenie of how broken my desktop is, you'd explode
[12:47] <Tm_T> FireCreep: hi, "foo is crap, get bar" isn't helping, I'd love to see this channel serving its purpose as support channel (:
[12:48] <Tm_T> mime111111: what you mean by resizing? what results?
[12:48] <mime111111> Tm_T!! in flash chats, utube videos, they dont resize but fonts do it correctly
[12:49] <mime111111> i mean zoom in zoom out
[12:49] <FireCreep> Don't need to zoom in, use "BIG" button on player's bottom bar
[12:49] <FireCreep> besides, zooming in on SWF always makes it lag, no matter the OS
[12:50] <Tm_T> mime111111: have you set it to zoom only the text?
[12:51] <mime111111> i dont know where to check this, its rarely modified as is new with ultimate flash and java
[12:51] <faglnar> Hi, whats the best way to get files out of an unformatted partition? I Put an SD (that was used for kubuntu installer) in PC, deleted the pseudoiso but forgot to reformat it. The camera can read its files without problem
[12:51] <BluesKaj> Hi all
[12:51] <mime111111> hi
[12:51] <faglnar> hi
[12:52] <FireCreep> Move those files to camera's inner storage, ref the SD
[12:52] <FireCreep> >>.>>
[12:55] <faglnar> The cam has no inner storage.
[12:57] <mime111111> Tm_T, i installed konqueror plugins, but is the same, it resize the video also, keeping it cutted by the not zoomed fonts...
[13:03] <mime111111> i cant believe that a rekonq or konqueror out of the box ok a new 12 pangolin dont be able to resize a video correctly
[13:14] <jbwiv> guys, on kubuntu, the longer my system stays up, the slower kde gets. I've toggled desktop effects, but it is still very slow. Xorg is eating 99% of cpu. How does one track down why?
[13:17] <mime111111> FireCreep, installing chromium-browser, fits perfectly as a solution for my problem, than u man! thnx u also Tm!
[13:17] <mime111111> cyaaa
[15:14] <livingdaylight> greetings
[15:14] <livingdaylight> I'm coming from ubuntu and need reminder what the kde version of sudo is, please?
[15:14] <Pici> livingdaylight: sudo.
[15:15] <livingdaylight> Pici: its the same?! lol
[15:15] <Pici> livingdaylight: or kdesudo if you mean the graphical variant
[15:15] <livingdaylight> Pici: thanks :)
[15:16] <livingdaylight> do you know also the command so I can get information on my hardware, please? intel processor etc
[15:17] <Pici> livingdaylight: lshw ?
[15:23] <luca> Hi! I just installed Kubuntu but I see no window title bars. Anyone who knows why?
[15:28] <livingdaylight> is it also sudo apt-get update in kubuntu, please?
[15:30] <olafw> livingdaylight, yes.  As a general rule command-line utils are identical between kubuntu and ubuntu
[15:31] <livingdaylight> olafw: Thank you. Perhaps there is more in common than I previously realized
[15:52] <eagles0513875> hey gusy i want to enable and disable my track pad and it seems like there is no way to do so either via keyboard shortcut which on my netbook is FN+f3 or in system settings :( any idea how i can enable and disable my trackpad
[16:48] <BluesKaj> eagles0513875, install synaptiks, if not already in system settings>input devices>touchpad
[16:48] <ikonia> is synaptiks still around ?
[16:48] <ikonia> (not synaptic)
[16:48] <ikonia> I thought it had been replaced
[16:51] <BluesKaj> ikonia, , name change, kde-config-touchpad , but synaptiks search in synaptic , still finds the application
[16:52] <ikonia> ahhhh
[16:52] <ikonia> sneaky
[16:52] <livingdaylight> testing kubuntu. Only curious issue right now is notification (yellow lightbulb) informing me of application upgrade available. But, Ihave done apt-get update /upgrade and I'm all up to date. So, where is it coming from? Why? and when I do click on it, I get a black square across the middle of my screen and I need to reboot to make it go away.
[16:52] <ikonia> so still the same product, just a name change to bring it under the kde banned
[16:52] <ikonia> banner
[16:52] <BluesKaj> aka 'synaptiks touchpad configuration tool'
[17:39] <eagles0513875> BluesKaj: searching for synaptic
[17:40] <BluesKaj> synaptiks for touchpad , synaptic is apackage manager
[17:41] <BluesKaj> eagles0513875,^
[17:55] <eagles0513875> BluesKaj: i already have that installed but in system settings under touchpad there is no way to disable or enable the touch pad
[18:01] <BluesKaj_> ok, on my laptop eagles0513875 , what do you not have there on touchpad
[18:01] <eagles0513875> BluesKaj: to be able to enable and disable the touchpad
[18:02] <BluesKaj_> you should have 4 tabs
[18:03] <eagles0513875> BluesKaj: i have 4 tabes
[18:04] <eagles0513875> BluesKaj: tabs* but there is no setting to enable or disable the touchpad
[18:04] <BluesKaj_> yeah eagles0513875, no disable option
[18:05] <eagles0513875> there used to be a box to enable and disable it
[18:05] <eagles0513875> BluesKaj:
[18:06] <Guest40588> Hey guys! I'm having the wierdest issue with runnning the Tor Browser bundle. http://paste.kde.org/518498/  It ways it can't find vidalia in the ./App/vidalia location...but everything is there? I've ran this bundle 1000 times on Kubuntu with no problems and now its just doing it for some reason.
[18:06] <Guest40588> it says*
[18:11] <BluesKaj> eagles0513875, synclient TouchpadOff=1 , on is , synclient TouchpadOff=0 ..see if that works
[18:14] <eagles0513875> BluesKaj: via command line
[18:20] <BluesKaj> eagles0513875, yeah , sorry should have mention via cli
[18:20] <eagles0513875> BluesKaj: sadly i have to go :(
[18:55] <fezmiester> Help! I loaded a bunch of packages,  (including Oad that game - hoping it would get rid of dependency problems I could not fix) and on restart-- the latest kde  has failed to load, (it logs in but then fails. )
[18:56] <fezmiester> running of a live-usb- now --- so how do I UNDO THE LAST PACKAGES?
[18:56] <fezmiester> ;z))
[18:57] <fezmiester> sigh*  is it good to leave kde running off of usb sticks a long time?? guess we'll find out
[18:59] <fezmiester> nice nic big
[19:02] <fezmiester> there must be a key comand, (safe boot) for kde I don't know...
[19:09] <fezmiester> What is the way to undo the last package 'add'... ???
[19:15] <fezmiester> how do you access booting options?  - bios, & F11 for drives isn't going to sole this.... if the strtup fails.
[20:14] <bagsam> hello, anyone here who can help me with a small issue?
[20:18]  * rork steps on bagsam's issue
[20:19] <rork> solved
[20:19] <rork> !ask | bagsam
[20:20] <bagsam> I freshly installed kubuntu and now my system will only boot with the usb stick inside...
[20:20] <bagsam> so.. how to fix this?
[20:22] <bagsam> I guess the bootloader is set to be on the usb so booting necessitates it to be plugged but how's the terminal command to re-set the bootloader?
[20:23] <rork> bagsam: most likely you installed the grub (the bootloader) configuration on your usb stick indeed, you have to reinstall grub from your main system
[20:27] <bagsam> okay thanks, I googled the command and tried it with sda1 since this is the partition on my harddisk, supposed for the OS - now there's a warning about installing GRUB to partitions and the refusal to do so- why that?
[20:28] <noaXess> hey all
[20:28] <noaXess> how to disable auto restarting crashed apps?
[20:29] <rork> bagsam: typically the mbr is at the start of the disk, not of the partition, so use /dev/sda
[20:30] <bagsam> rork: aah, okay I see.. that worked. Thank you a lot! :)
[20:32] <BluesKaj> noaXess, check system settings>startup&shutdown>service manager
[20:33] <noaXess> and what to check there?
[20:34] <BluesKaj> whatever apps are crashing
[20:36] <noaXess> BluesKaj: don't find any thing about the app that will be restarted after crash.. it's mythtv-frontend.. i upgraded it while it was open.. cause it crashed before
[20:37] <littlegirl> Does anybody know where I can download the Kubuntu Oneiric 11.10 CD for i386? I can only find the DVD here: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/releases/11.10/release/
[20:38] <BluesKaj> littlegirl, what about the alternate install cd ?
[20:38] <littlegirl> BluesKaj: That page only has the alternate CD for Mac.
[20:39]  * littlegirl has a PC
[20:39] <BluesKaj> littlegirl, I wasn't tlking about that page , try kubuntu.org
[20:40] <littlegirl> BluesKaj: Any idea how to get to older releases on kubuntu.org?
[20:41] <littlegirl> I've pretty well given up and am downloading the three GB DVD, although I would have preferred to grab the smaller CD. (:
[20:43] <littlegirl> Maybe one of you can help. What I need the CD for is to find out what ships with Oneiric: Kino or Kdenlive.
[20:43] <littlegirl> And by ships with I mean is installed by default. (:
[20:46] <BluesKaj> littlegirl, hope this works , http://releases.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/11.10/
[20:46] <rork> littlegirl: doesn't hurt to look on a mirror: http://nl.releases.ubuntu.com/releases/kubuntu/11.10/kubuntu-11.10-desktop-i386.iso
[20:46] <littlegirl> Ooh, nice, thanks!
[20:48] <BluesKaj> rork, kubuntu .org kept opening the 12.04 mirror
[20:49] <BluesKaj> it used to list all the active mirrors
[20:56] <BluesKaj> I guess Bluesystems doesn't list the older kubuntu releases , since they took over development just around the time 12.04 was released
[22:43] <BarkingFish> Evening guys - does anyone know if kFind searches everything on a disk, including hidden files and folders please?  I've got a problem. I have lost a set of images I recorded from a video game, almost 200 of them - I've not deleted them, but I can't find them at all. I'm sure I zipped them, but if I did, I don't know where the hell they are.
[22:47] <tsimpson> BarkingFish: it searches in hidden directories by default, but doesn't show hidden files unless you choose that option
[22:47] <BarkingFish> ah, ok
[22:48] <BarkingFish> It's just being a pain in the neck. I want to search for all the archives on the disk, but I can only do it by extension, one type at a time. I can't find an entry in kfind to just search all archives
[22:49] <phoenix_firebrd> BarkingFish: what do you mean by archive?
[22:50] <BarkingFish> zip, gzip, tar.gz, tar.bz, bzip, etc - everything compressed
[22:50] <tsimpson> BarkingFish: you can use comma as a separator, eg *.zip,*.tar.gz,*.etc
[22:51] <BarkingFish> tsimpson, i was using the second tab, the contents tab, and selecting by type
[22:51] <BarkingFish> because I want it to specifically search a whole disk, for an archive containing specific words, of any one of those types
[22:51] <BarkingFish> this is getting deeper than I wanted :P
[22:53] <tsimpson> BarkingFish: you can combine the options in each of the tabs to work together
[22:54] <BarkingFish> excellent. I don't know how, but let's see if you can help me figure this out :)  I hate kfind, and I wish I had an alternative, but I don't :)
[22:55] <tsimpson> you just fill in the first tab, and then the second, etc. and it just works :)
[22:55] <BarkingFish> i need to find any and all files of a compressed nature (all archives basically) containing the words tsutomu or the prefix snh-beta, created between march 10th 2008 and now.
[22:55] <BarkingFish> so you can use all three tabs at the same time?
[22:55] <BarkingFish> heck, I didn't realise that
[22:56] <tsimpson> yeah, it's not exactly obvious
[22:57] <BarkingFish> can you use operators in the search?  like can I use tsutomu OR snh-beta (or the OR symbol, whatever it is) to find files containing either term?
[23:01] <tsimpson> I don't think you can, the documentation (F1) says it can use RegEx, but that option doesn't show up
[23:01] <BarkingFish> ah.
[23:01] <BarkingFish> and I'm crud at doing regex. I have enough trouble trying to write abusefilters on wikipedia, which are mostly all regex.
[23:01] <tsimpson> make sure you check the "Include binary files" option though, otherwise it will silently ignore non-text (or document-like) files
