[02:21] (yes, my password is right, it's a single-use password, so I know that's good. [02:32] Can anyone help me with KMyMoney? I am trying to get OFX transactions to import, and they match up with manual transactions, which is fine, however it seems to be using the cleared date of the transaction instead of what I set manually. [02:33] Like if I swipe my card on the 24th, and it clears on the 27th, the transaction date changes to the 27th when it matches. === skreech__ is now known as Daskreech [02:33] huh, just needed a restart. Kopete is now connecting. [02:33] h00k: strange [02:33] Daskreech: yeah...after an initial round of upgrades after installing [02:33] anyway. cool. [02:34] phunyguy: Ah Umm Hmm [02:34] I'm almost sure I've done something like this before [02:34] yeah, why the heck would I care about a cleared date. I want to know when I made the transaction.

[08:49] lordievader: howdy lordie... Yes, it behaves much as Ubuntu's global menu, or as in Apple Mac's global menu for that matter. Integrating an apps file menu into the panel [08:50] this video shows it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qpke-m4c8pk [08:51] livingdaylight: Hey, that is kinda nice, let's see if I can find it. [08:51] lordievader: yeah! :D [08:52] I searched the widget tool and when I found the video synaptic, but don't see it in either. Perhaps its been discontinued? [08:53] that video seems to be going back kubuntu 09.04 [08:54] livingdaylight: Seems like it, yes.

[09:22] even in ubuntu not all apps were yet integrated into global menu, but increasingly more so. [09:22] lordievader: yes [09:22] but only integrates kde apps so far. Not even FF; still, its a start and a feature I like [09:23] livingdaylight: FF seems to be integrated here...

[15:09] munny, not sure if it's applicable to your situation ..there was a bug associated with system settings , but the fix is in the repos [15:09] Peace-, no... just installed it the same way I installed the cx5000 served up on the windows box [15:09] dougl: i would give it a try [15:09] thanks [15:10] Riddell: hey, I have a problem while trying to update to KDE 4.9 from backports in 12.04, complains about kdelibs5 -- http://paste.kde.org/527726/ [15:10] am I missing something?

[17:38] k [17:38] thanks BluesKaj [17:38] What has happened as far as Canonical disowning Kubuntu and the Council elections and the rest of that uncertainty? [17:40] Kubuntu is now supported by Blue Systems , they hired one of the devs to help support it , drostie [17:40] BluesKaj: is Blue Systems going to sell support to make a revenue stream out of it like Canonical did? [17:41] drostie: I don't think that is known yet. [17:41] drostie, don't know ..that remains to be seen [17:43] drostie: Canonical still supports Kubuntu, as a community-driven derivative. It's not been abandoned, just relegated back to the status it used to have, along with the others (Xubuntu, Lubuntu). [17:43] So I imagine that Canonical regards Blue Systems supporting Kubuntu as part of the community support/development. [17:45] DarthFrog: I think I missed whatever you said immediately prior. [17:46] drostie, http://blue-systems.com/ [17:49] BluesKaj: ooh yay, the Blue Systems page is no longer a black screen of linkdeath. :D [17:50] BluesKaj: but still won't sell me a KDE T-shirt. :< [17:50] Do they sell shirts? [17:51] I think Kubuntu.org has some on their site [17:51] how long could it take to have 4.9 on stable? [17:53] chachan: 4.9 is in backports, I'm running right now. [17:53] DarthFrog, well, I mean, not in backports :) [17:53] chachan: Then you'll have to wait till Quantal, probably. [17:54] chachan: Don't forget, Precise is a LTS. [17:54] i.e. you don't screw up stable. :-) [17:54] hm, well, it's just two months... [17:54] yes, I wouldn't like to add backports [17:55] or maybe I'll try :) [17:56] bummer - CUPS is messed now... cant print to either printer now, cups (http://localhost:631/printers/CLP-320splc) says [17:56] Print Test Page CLP-320splc Error [17:56] Unable to print test page: [17:56] No such file or directory [17:57] dougl: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.

Taskbar settings [18:55] can you add "split window" like in dolphin to natulus? [18:55] does natulus have this option allready? [18:55] or can you enable visible menu bar in dolphin?

[19:12] Daskreech, I don't know how it works. I thought they had to change something at their end and running the command would link to the new link [19:12] livingdaylight: ah that would be good but I think that wouldn't work for this file [19:14] livingdaylight: The point for that file is that there is no legal way for them to be a middle person to deliver it [19:14] * livingdaylight is confused [19:15] hmm wierd I cant find Naut anywhere on my kde.. even tho I was just running it a minute ago [19:15] what is the fix? and why is 237 no longer on their list? [19:17] livingdaylight: They fix it in the code. Next time that you update you get the new code with the fix [19:18] Daskreech, right, so if I have a wine ppa, then I'd get the update before the next buntu release, presuming they've fixed it in the code already [19:18] livingdaylight: eeeeeh [19:18] livingdaylight: Couple of steps before that happens :) [19:18] but yeah I'd expect you'd get an update soon [19:19] Daskreech, have they posted a fix in the meantime, in terms fo a script? [19:20] still don't understand why your post #237 is not listed any longer [19:20] livingdaylight: Probably not. [19:20] pb: Nautilus ? [19:20] yea. its np tho [19:22] Can someone tell me if I'm crazy? If I do Alt-F2, 'echo $TERM > ~/out.txt" and look at out.txt, it says xterm. Did the "terminal" of the krunner command change recently? [19:22] livingdaylight: They will post a fix to the code that they tested and file the bug as resolved. Someone will review it and flip the bug to closed. Someone will take the update and package it then drop it in a ppa which you will get [19:22] I had some scripts that were relying on it not being 'xterm' (which is kind of crummy), but am I crazy to think that this maybe changed in the past few weeks? [19:22] could take a day or two from them putting the bug as resolved to you getting it [19:22] or a few hours.. depends [19:23] Combatjuan: That depends. Does echo $TERM do something different in konsole? [19:23] konsole also says it's xterm [19:24] It used to as well. I used to be able to check $TERM and figure out if I was in konsole or Alt-F2. If the latter, I'd open a new konsole session, if the former, I'd open a tab. But that doesn't work anymore. [19:24] Combatjuan: well switch it there [19:24] You mean make konsole not be $TERM=xterm? [19:25] sure [19:25] I thought various tools (vi in particular?) checked the $TERM variable for xtermness to enable features. So I'd hate to change that. [19:25] pb: alt+F2 -> nautilus ? [19:27] there it goes.. ty Daskreech [19:27] Tada! [19:28] its magic! [19:28] Combatjuan: what was the output for alt+F2 before ? [19:29] I don't recall. )-8 Maybe the empy string? [19:29] Hmm that would be strange [19:30] It looks like my env is the same between the two except for WINDOWID (not useful), SHELL_SESSION_ID (not useful), PWD (not quite), KONSOLE_DBUS_SESSION (nope), and _ (might work?) [19:33] Yeah, using "$_ = /usr/bin/krunner" works. I have no doubt that's a hack, but I'll take it. [19:34] Combatjuan: no I think that's working as intended [19:34] Oh good. [19:42] http://www.thepowerbase.com/2012/08/how-to-install-kde-4-9-available-immediately-for-kubuntu/ [19:54] DarthFrog, wonder what the -y means in the backport deb apt-add command means ? [19:54] Probably to answer Yes to the "Add Key?" question. [19:54] Would be my guess. [19:55] * BluesKaj getting repititious in my old age [19:55] ok , just never seen it before === late is now known as L4t3 [19:58] BluesKaj: alt+f2 -> man:/apt-add-repository [19:58] Doesnt' work [19:59] because I can't spell [19:59] Nor is there anything relevant from "apt-add-repository -?" [20:00] man:/add-apt-repository [20:00] I'm a dofus :) [20:00] That works. And it is to answer Yes. :-) [20:00] But a good looking doofus. :-) [20:00] The kamera:/ doesn't lie [20:01] Yet "man apt-add-repository" says there's no man page. [20:02] Daskreech, no matter , I already have the backport and key and KDe 4.9 installed ...was just curious about what the -y meant in apt-add command, "-y, --yes Assume yes to all queries" [20:04] BluesKaj: yep [20:05] better than trying to figure out yes [20:05] yes sounds dangerous though [20:06] which is why it's an option :) [20:06] though I have seen people alias it as the default [20:06] which is particularly dangerous [20:06] BluesKaj: As usual, if you want to shoot yourself in the foot, Linux will hand you the gun. :-) [20:07] If you want to use the command line, you should know what you're doing. Or be looking forward to learning a lot of Linux to correct the problems you cause. :-) [20:07] DarthFrog: But you have to compile it first [20:08] Daskreech: Oh, that's so old school. :-) I've not had to compile anything manually for a very long time. [20:08] * Daskreech does look forward to fixing his problems ^_^ [20:08] DarthFrog: How do you get the new featureful buggy guns then? [20:08] I don't think I've compiled a kernel since I started using Kubuntu. [20:09] DarthFrog, I'm particularly cautious about commands that I'm not familiar with ...i learned that lesson a while back :P [20:09] I have but that's cause I broke something v_v [20:09] \o/ learning is fun [20:09] Daskreech: I wait and let others do the beta testing first. :-) I don't like bleeding on the cutting edge. [20:10] BluesKaj: You have good judgement. Good judgement comes with experience. Experience comes from bad judgement. [20:11] I don't mind testing since i installed this drive from my other linux pc that lost the mobo a few months ago , so i run 12.04 on the main drive and 12.10 on the old one. === kubuntu is now known as Guest46597 [20:15] one of my bandmates is going to try kubuntu , when has the time , unfortunately he installed ubuntu as his first linux experience andhis mouse and KB froze so he couldn't use it. He was ready to give up on linux after that. [20:16] boo [20:16] Not a good out of the box experience. [20:16] brand new pc as well ,that's what bothered me about it [20:18] I normally expect newer things to not work with Linux [20:18] not enough time and penetration to get drivers worked on [20:20] I think he's going to give kubuntu a try ...new as in new to him. bought it on clearance sale , so it isn't "new" as in just put on the market [20:20] Even so, mouse & KB are hardly cutting edge hardware. [20:22] most the time its eather no sound , or video problems? [20:22] yeah ..hate to start telling ppl to drop to the TTY to run commands or the recovery kernel on their first try with linux [20:23] BluesKaj: Ah ok [20:23] BluesKaj: Normally I just take their computer for two days and sort it out [20:24] If I can get them to stick with it for a month they can usually appreciate it [20:24] course some people are just not ever going to use Linux [20:24] Which is fine, because they'd never be happy with linux. [20:24] it only underlines what the other guys in the band (one's an IT experienced) say about Linux ...it's for tinkerers ...windows is for users ..hard to argue with that when his system freezes [20:25] BluesKaj: Though I don't like Unity, Ubuntu is for folks like him. [20:25] BluesKaj: I'd disagree I know many non tinkerer who use Linux [20:26] But if he comes to Linux with a sour attitude, he'll never be happy with it. [20:26] Windows I'd put as power users who don't want to tinker [20:26] You have to tinker Windows much more than Linux. [20:27] you can get linux to a non tinker spot and use the blue bolts out of it much better than windows [20:27] Graf_Westerholt: if you take it to a high bar that's certainly not true [20:27] on average yes that's true [20:27] Daskreech, of course I disagreed , but that's the perception of ppl who take MS certification courses ...but they don't want to hear about linux servers [20:27] Linux does give you enough tools to get yourself into trouble. Windows simply doesn't [20:27] I say that you can tinker to your heart's content with Kubuntu but it's not necessary to tinker with it. [20:28] what fun is there in not tinkering [20:28] mydogsnameisrudy: productivity ? [20:28] not fun [20:28] It's a bit like people who like building plane engines and wings [20:28] Daskreech, I've been in plenty of trouble with windows as well, before i discovered linux [20:29] It's a bit confusing to them that people just want to get in planes and fly [20:29] BluesKaj: Yes but did you have the tools to fix the trouble? :) [20:29] Daskreech, yeah , it was called reinstall :) [20:30] I'm still very amused that is considered a tool [20:30] There is a problem with my house's roof [20:30] Oh well burn it to the ground and get new wallpapers while you are rebuilding it [20:30] well when you have is a sledgehammer [20:31] hopefully at some point the roof takes care of itself [20:31] all you have is [20:32] There are people I direct to just use Windows and use OSX [20:32] I'm getting to the point where there are some people I'll tell just get an Android tablet [20:32] 4,9 seems ok here ...haven't had any system settings crashes like others [20:38] it would be nice to have a 1000 cuts project for kubuntu but Ithink that too many of the issues are so much lower in the stack [20:38] X needs some serious fixing, video drivers are horrible and the sound systems need coherence [20:39] hi [20:39] need help [20:39] m using kubuntu 11.04 on dell inspiron [20:40] whats the problem bak [20:40] i installed nvidia-current I guess I am not writing the xorg.conf correctly [20:40] Daskreech: There was an announcement the other day of a new audio system for linux, klang. It'll be in the kernel (if accepted, of course). [20:41] Daskreech, yeah , like 2 intel hda chips , one in the soundcard and the other in graphics linked to the hdmi output really threw wrench into setting up the sound ...still don't know if it's fixable ..confusing for new users to say the least [20:41] bak: what's happening ? [20:41] not starting gui [20:41] followed this [20:41] http://www.kubuntuforums.net/showthread.php?58294-How-to-install-Nvidia-Drivers-in-Kubuntu [20:41] Daskreech: http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=MTE1MDc [20:42] DarthFrog: thanks [20:42] to write xorg.conf [20:42] klang sounds too "canonical" for my taste :) [20:42] BluesKaj: But it should be fine for KDE, having a "k". :-) [20:43] bak: can you pastebin your xorg.conf [20:43] ok === DLange_ is now known as DLange [20:43] DarthFrog: X_X k reads as Kernel tomost people. Sounds basically like pulseaudio just thrown further down the stack to me [20:43] http://pastebin.com/8Hc9bmwF [20:44] Daskreech: If it cleans up the dog's breakfast that is audio on Linux, I'll be happy. [20:45] bak: no that's not going to work [20:45] how do i update Daskreech [20:46] bak: run sudo rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf && sudo nvidia-xconfigure [20:46] then run sudo service kdm start === LordOfTime is now known as TheLordOfTime [20:48] It is saying nvidia-xconfigure command not found [20:50] bak: Did you install the nvidia driver ? [20:50] yes [20:51] if i say sudo dkms status [20:51] output: nvidia-current 302.17 added [20:52] how did you add that driver? [20:52] sudo apt-get install nvidia-current [20:53] i am able to see nvidia x server settings in menu [20:55] is that installed properly? [20:56] bak, it's best to use kmenu>apps>system>addtional drivers [20:56] bak aka jockey [20:57] it showing that no proprieterty drivers installed in your system [20:58] bak yes , but look at the list below and choose the recommend driver and activate [20:58] *use [20:59] list is empty [21:05] how do i do now ? mine is dell inspiron N5110 [21:06] lspci shows nvidia card?

[22:31] hey mydog, knows you how to get more channels [22:32] what channel are you looking for [22:33] I don know, just more channels. this is first time i chat in a irc [22:34] ok well you can do /join #ubuntu [22:34] and /join #kubuntu-offtopic [22:37] so join is the command to go inside a chat. but what is the command to knows differents channels? [22:37] maybe ""offtopic"" [22:37] you need to /join then channel name like #kubuntu [22:38] i just google for the channel im lookin for [22:38] depends on what your are trying to find [22:38] I'm inside this channel already [22:38] i think xchat has a search engine in it [22:39] footroot: you can type /list [22:39] ok [22:39] ah thx Daskreech [22:39] ;) [22:39] Thank Daskreech [22:42] hi, is there any repo for updated chromium versions? I've one, but the last is 18.x, now there is 21.x [22:45] I think so [22:48] footroot: Are you looking for channels or servers? [22:55] Daskrech i'm looking for both. i'm trying to knows how to work with Quassel
