[04:26] Guest84917: thanks :) [04:26] np [04:26] c2tarun, #kde could be very quit at times, another choice is try luck at #opensuse since KDE is their default desktop environment...

Sometimes just after start-up, sometimes after resume and even while I just normally work it segfaults. When it comes up again, I find the system bar seem to have more items, all of them with no icon an not clickable (http://wstaw.org/m/2012/08/07/Screen.png) [08:08] Did anybody else face such problem yet & may tell me how to fix / work around it?

What time is it where you are? [10:45] 5:45AM here [10:46] 6:45AM [10:46] About time for me to get back to sleep [10:46] Unless I have my coffee.

[10:49] Goodman, Missouri [10:49] Pretty far southwest [10:50] midwest [10:50] been to St Louis , along time ago [10:56] hmm. my 12.10 install seems stable this morning ...had a total freeze yesterday , had to do a hrd reboot [10:58] I just learned chroot [10:58] :D [10:58] I have 12.04 [10:58] Gonna upgrade when the next one comes out, tho. [11:00] yeah , this is a test-drive HDD , my main HDD runs 12.04 [11:07] BluesKaj: You test drive Ubuntu officially, or just for fun? [11:11] DFrostedWang, well offiicially I suppose , the devs ask "testers" to try certain apps at various stages of development [11:11] Hi, I have a displayport adapter that splits to 2 monitors. And a second monitor directly using DVI on the graphics card.. so I have 3 monitors, but X only recognises 2 {adapter(3840*1200), samsung(1920x1200)}. Using Xinerama. Now I want to configure KDE to split the dualscreen adapter into 2 virtual displays so that window placement/maximize/fullscreen works. It has already split the adapter and samsung nicely and I see 2 rows in the Sys [11:12] I would be realy glad if I could set this up! === Rajesh is now known as Guest78947 [11:19] BluesKaj: Neat. I like to do beta/alpha/pre-alpha testing for ppl, but it'd be neat to get paid for it. [11:20] I test for Mozilla [Firefox (Aurora)] [11:22] yeah, mostly I try stuff and report back , but i don't hear much feedback from them' [11:23] morning [11:23] from kubuntu devs [11:23] mydogsnameisrudy: Morning [11:23] hey DFrostedWang [11:23] BluesKaj: Kubuntu? I thought it was Ubuntu. [11:24] this is Kubuntu support ..uses the KDE desktop instead of Unity/Gnome [11:25] I know [11:25] Hi mydogsnameisrudy [11:25] But wouldn't a tester use all different DEs? [11:25] morning BluesKaj [11:25] i use only kubuntu and so so only kde [11:25] because it's, FOR ME , the best de [11:26] I like Unity [11:26] DFrostedWang, no i agreed to kubuntu , I don';t run ubuntu [11:26] But I broke it [11:26] i hate unity [11:26] :) [11:26] It grows on you, tho. [11:26] don't like purple [11:26] i don't like orange [11:26] Me neither [11:26] I changed it [11:26] kde is nice by default [11:27] Maybe my customizations are what broke it. [11:27] Nothing is [11:27] I like to customize stuff [11:27] anyway this is not a chat [11:27] it's a support channel [11:27] Why not? [11:27] So?

See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines [11:27] Nothing to support right now [11:27] bye [11:27] That had nothing to do with "don't chat" [11:27] bye [11:28] DFrostedWang: join kubuntu-offtopic [11:28] frankly the KDE desktop is more familiar for windows users , I was an old windows guy back to W 3.1 [11:29] I was a Windows user, too. [11:29] But I realized there was so much more potential with Linux [11:29] Ubuntu is just my distro for this month or so [11:29] I have almost every popular distwro [11:29] distro* [11:29] In .iso form [11:30] Ubuntu/LinuxMint/Zorin-OS are installed on my current computer right now. [11:31] anyone any idea about my question ? [11:31] No, sorry [11:31] Don't have a clue how o help you === Gryllida is now known as gry [11:38] GeertJohan, that's beyond my scope , considering i just use our plasma tv as a monitor ...nothing real complicated here [11:39] hmm too bad :/ thanks anyway.

[12:51] that's a problem with a lot of onboard audio [12:51] Yeah [12:52] My brand of computer has a lot of audio issues. [12:52] do you have pavucontrol installed? [12:52] Because of it's audiocard [12:52] I do now, why? [12:58] pavucontrol gives you more options for directing sound inputs and outputs , along with options for choosing different audio formats like dolby digital etc [12:59] Fatal Error: Unable to connect to PulseAudio: OK [13:01] open a terminal , sudo aplay -l , paste the first line here [13:03] **** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices **** [13:03] card 0: Intel [HDA Intel], device 0: ALC888 Analog [ALC888 Analog] [13:03] Subdevices: 1/1 [13:03] Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 [13:03] card 0: Intel [HDA Intel], device 1: ALC888 Digital [ALC888 Digital] [13:03] DFrostedWang: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.

[13:12] PulseAudio is disabled [13:13] were you advised to disable it ? [13:13] Yes [13:13] It fixed the "no sound" issue [13:13] But gave me this new issue [13:13] I have been just livin' with it. [13:15] then remove pavucontrol , it's useless without pulseaudio , unless you want to try it with pulseasudio then enable pulse again or install or whatever is required to restore it [13:18] I removed it [13:18] some ppl will advise to remove pulse ,but in some cases pavucontrol helps solve the no sound issue [13:19] then just install it again ...we can always remove it if we van't resolve thye issue [13:19] Okay then [13:19] keep pavucontrol [13:20] I am === marco_ is now known as marco__ [13:22] Hi === spawn[dead] is now known as spawn57 [13:28] So are you still helping me? [13:28] I'm here , but you're on unity , correct ? [13:29] or kde ? [13:29] KDE [13:29] Why? [13:30] I told you my Unity borked itself. [13:31] hello [13:31] i have a question [13:31] viktor: Hello [13:31] ok then , open system settings>multimedia>phonon>device preferences , check what's listed [13:31] viktor: What is your question? [13:31] its disponible KDE 4.9 now? [13:31] viktor: I don't know. [13:31] i have KDE 4.8.4 [13:32] viktor, kde 4.0 is in the back ports [13:32] can i update to 4.9 version? [13:32] err 4.9 [13:32] in the back ports? [13:32] i dont know [13:32] :) [13:33] Built-In Analogue Stereo [13:33] viktor, yes sudo apt-add-repository ppa:kubuntu-ppa/backports , then update/upgrade and dist-upgrade [13:33] ahh ok thanks!! [13:33] I have a speaker plugged in (not turned on), but didn't start my computer with it plugged in and on. [13:35] DFrostedWang, click the test button [13:36] It works [13:36] My sound is AMAZING on this computer, BTW [13:36] * DFrostedWang is a total audiophile :D [13:38] yes , my bandmate has a dell with one of those fancy built in soundsystems with subwoofer etc [13:38] Sounds great, doesn't it? [13:39] is digikam stable on kde 4.9? [13:39] now what about your headphone output , can you configure it with pavucontrol ? [13:40] PulseAudio is still off [13:40] I will turn it on, how do I do it? [13:40] I 4got how [13:40] Hi. When I plug in my external usb drive, it seems to not give me any permissions on the user level. root owns everything. I looked at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions#Per-User_Mounts and ran '/usr/bin/udisks --mount /dev/sdb1' manually with the same result [13:40] apachelogger_: Ever seen something like that? [13:41] chown [user]:[user] /path/to/usb/drive [13:41] run pulseaudio from the terminal [13:41] as root [13:41] no [13:42] is there any text output in the terminal after typing pulseaudio ? [13:42] E: [alsa-sink] alsa-sink.c: Error opening PCM device front:0: Device or resource busy [13:43] DFrostedWang, ok reboot [13:43] ps aux | grep pulseaudio says it isn't running [13:43] E: [pulseaudio] pid.c: Daemon already running. [13:43] E: [pulseaudio] main.c: pa_pid_file_create() failed. [13:43] Running it again got me that [13:44] steveire: nope [13:44] DFrostedwang : Exception in thread Thread-1: [13:44] Traceback (most recent call last): [13:44] File "/usr/lib/python2.7/threading.py", line 551, in __bootstrap_inner [13:44] self.run() [13:44] File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/softwareproperties/ppa.py", line 95, in run [13:44] viktor: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. [13:44] self.add_ppa_signing_key(self.ppa_path) [13:44] I think I've seen that in all versions of Kubuntu I've ever used. [13:45] Also, do I really need to reboot? I will have to disconnect from like 18 channels, close over 30 browser tabs, disconnect from my bot's server, close my chroot, etc, etc... [13:45] DFrostedWang: The chown doesn't solve the underlying problem. [13:45] steveire: Why not? [13:45] udisks shouldn't be mounting my external drive with only root access. [13:45] Well it won't if you chown it [13:46] Or, go to /media/ and change permissions on it. [13:46] DFrostedWang, well that's the nature of piulseaudio it needs to be rebooted to run [13:46] Dammit [13:46] DFrostedWang: Changing perms on /media/ doesn't affect that at all. [13:46] Is there a way I can make Firefox remember the currently open tabs? [13:47] Don't change perms on /media/, change perms on /media/[yourdrive] [13:47] DFrostedWang, or you can just remove it and pavucontrol and run alsamixer with the apropriate volume ctrls to suit your needs [13:47] Yes, I know what you meant, but it doesn't solve the general problem. [13:48] Okay, maybe that is better [13:48] I'm not even convinced it will work. You don't seem to know what you're talking about :) [13:48] I only reboot every few days [13:48] Because I have no fan [13:48] Better would be an fstab entry for example, but that also doesn't solve the underlying problem [13:48] I know what I'm talking about [13:48] You have it always plugged into your computer? [13:48] If not, fstab isn't right. [13:49] !who | steveire [13:49] steveire: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) [13:49] !tab [13:49] You can use your key for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line. [13:49] neat [13:49] yup [13:49] I knew that, but neat [13:54] steveire, open system settings>removeable devices>"enable autmatic mounting ..." apply [13:55] BluesKaj: Thanks, but 'Enable automatic mounting of removable media' is already checked. [13:55] And it does auto-mount [13:55] Well, like I was saying, if your user owns it, it can access it. [13:55] Chown it [13:55] But not with permissions that make it read/write as non-root [13:56] steveire, are you leaving the drive plugged in or conecting and disconnecting it when you want to use it? [13:56] BluesKaj: It is an external hard disk. I plug it in when I want to use it (I just got it) === vsrao_ is now known as vsrao [13:59] BluesKaj: When it was fat32 formatted, there was no problem. I just reformatted it as ext [13:59] ext4 [14:03] steveire, leave it plugged in , and turned on [14:04] If you move from computer to computer, it will retain previous permissions anyway, right? [14:04] So he would need root on any other computer he accessed it with [14:04] To chown it [14:05] And, actually, Fat32 would be best for an external. Maybe just partition it w/ ext4 and Fat32. [14:06] the proper permissions command is chmod +x /dev/sdx , afaik , changing ownership doesn't always work [14:07] Okay then [14:07] Nice to know [14:07] :D [14:07] DFrostedWang, I use an ext4 external without any permissions troubles [14:07] I learned something [14:07] DFrostedWang: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. [14:07] What??? [14:08] and if you want a file sytem that works for all pcs on a network, NTFS works well [14:09] for both linux and window [14:09] s [14:09] Yeah, that, too. === clau is now known as Guest93332 [14:10] BluesKaj: Hmm, you never had a problem like that? === _alibaba_ is now known as munny [14:11] steveire, chmod +x /dev/sdx sdx being the external device in sudo fdisk -l [14:13] BluesKaj: I've added it to fstab, created a directory for it (which is a problem - normal automounting doesn't require the directory to pre-exist. If it exists, my backup script could try to copy things into it without the disk even being mounted - silent loss of backups) chowned the directory and now I can write to it. [14:13] I'm curious about why you did not have to jump through such hoops. [14:14] How big is your external? [14:16] How much did you pay for it? [14:16] I need to get one. [14:16] steveire, I didn't add the external to fstab since it's hotpluggable with esata to sata . usb should be the same [14:17] Yes. I find that curious. [14:18] I considered it but I also use an older HDD IDE type for testing OSs , adding to fstab on 2 drives would just confuse the issue [14:21] Having to add it to fstab confuses me. [14:28] DFrostedWang, WDC WD10EARS 1Tb external here ...it holds our multimedia files [14:28] How much you pay for it? [14:29] about $90 , and I already had an esata/USB enclosure for it which cosy around 30 bucks [14:30] Dang... [14:30] Expensive [14:30] Here I can get a 1TB Toshiba for ~$79 [14:31] With enclosure. [14:31] If I get one, I will put my whole computer on it. [14:31] So I can use it w/ my laptop, too. [14:31] the WDs have never let me down [14:31] (much cheaper than in France, btw) [14:34] price isn't the only consideration when i buy parts and accessories , I could have gone the elcheapo route but I buy what suits my needs [14:37] I need cheap [14:37] LOL [14:39] cheap doesn't alway get you something new either ..a lot of that cheaply priced stuff is "refurbished" in fine print [14:39] So?

[17:12] I mean the bug reporting of the next Kubuntu version [17:12] Maybe [17:13] I just idle here [17:13] OK, thanks anyway === spawn57 is now known as spawn[dead] [17:22] Hello Guys [17:22] simplygades: try in #ubuntu+1 [17:22] Hi decci_ [17:22] I need help setting up backuppc for Ubuntu and Windows [17:22] Daskreech: you mean in the forums? Kubuntu or Ubuntu one? [17:29] simplygades, report quantal in #ubuntu+1 [17:29] ah, ok [17:29] thanks! [17:31] hi i am using kubuntu 12.04 64 bit. I tried to upgrade to kde 4.9 and my dolphin managers and other apps got screwed up and hence i removed the kde 4.9 by using purge. Now i want to give it an other try and hence added the backports repo back and i tried dist-upgrade but it does not show any updates @ all [17:31] am i missing something here? [17:32] G__81: did you do apt-get update after adding the backports repo again? [17:32] yes [17:33] G__81: can you pastebin the output of apt-cache policy libkdecore5 please [17:33] simplygades: no the IRC channel #ubuntu+1 [17:34] OK, thank you! === regx is now known as regx_afk [17:34] Sentynel, http://pastebin.com/Lfb0By43 [17:36] G__81: the PPAs aren't listed there; what's the output of cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/kubuntu-ppa-backports-precise.list [17:36] # deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-ppa/backports/ubuntu precise main [17:36] # deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-ppa/backports/ubuntu precise main [17:36] its commented out [17:36] why is that [17:37] G__81: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. [17:37] whatever you did to add it didn't work [17:37] that's what ppa purge does [17:37] it comments out entry [17:37] shumski, i added back the ppa again doesnt it override that? [17:37] i guess not :) [17:39] i can uncomment the first line alone right? [17:39] The sources arent need. are they ? [17:40] not if you won't want the source packages [17:41] ok i hope this time it works fine [17:41] i have the png image of how the dolphin looks like after the upgrade [17:41] it does not have any borders at all [17:41] not able to close the window as such [17:42] you mean no window decorations? [17:42] yes [17:42] i can upload the image somewhere [17:42] so that i could raise a bug if i again hit this issue [17:43] try doing (if that happens again) kwin --replace (best would be to do it in konsole, so you can upload the output) [17:44] ok i am upgrading the version now. i see the updates now and its downloading [17:52] brb [17:52] I was reading on kubuntu.org about kde 4.8.5 and 4.9 that cames out in few days ....., should I upgrade to 4.9 or 4.8.5 ? === nasrullah is now known as nas [17:57] Hello, I'm trying to set a shortcut for this game I play, I'm assuming I put Meta+Alt+E to Terminal= line no? [17:57] 4.9 is out , it's in the backports, Alex-Zion [17:57] It's not working there, =(. [17:58] rottingdead, what's not working ? [17:58] yeah I know ..., and it should be stable like always I guess .... [17:58] BluesKaj: Trying to set a shortcut to Konsole while I'm playing this game.. I mispoke earlier about the game.. [17:59] BluesKaj: Konsole specifically using Meta+Alt+E to Launch konsole. [17:59] anyway I'll upgrade to 4.9 , it should be fine .. [18:00] BluesKaj: Meta would be the Windows Key. [18:01] BluesKaj: or if you install yakuake , you'll have the konsole just with F12 .. ;) [18:03] Alex-Zion, after upgrading to 4.9 , make sure you dist-upgrade [18:04] Brg [18:04] brb* [18:04] Alex-Zion, I just keep the terminal in a launcher [18:04] it works fine [18:04] Sentynel, it works fine. I dont see the dolphin problem again [18:05] the themes still dont look good. [18:05] especially the air theme when enabled with effects, i dont see the window names on the task bar [18:07] screenshot? [18:08] Whew, thought I broke konsole [18:09] shumski, screenshot of the theme problem? [18:10] the other issue i see is that Konsole by default when started starts with the directory set to Documents instead of home directory [18:12] yes, that's a known issue (konsole one), for theme, yeah post a screenshot [18:13] You can 'fix' konsole issue with 'Settings --> Edit Current Profile --> Initial directory' [18:15] I'd like a sales-talk. I am looking at a new install, I am trying to decide bwtween Kubuntu, Fedora, and OpenSuse. Why Kubuntu? [18:16] shumski, thanks fixed that issue [18:19] MadKaw, we don't do polls here , try them and decide for yourself what suits you best [18:21] Wasn't after a poll. I've just gotten frustrated trying to find current comparisons. Seems like most sites I find with search engines are 2 versions old. [18:22] If you can even suggest a set of search terms that would bring up current tests, I'd be grateful. [18:23] you'll find alot of info here MadKaw , but they're biased against debian and it's relatives [18:23] http://distrowatch.com/ [18:27] Thanks. I've not succeeded in digging much out of distrowatch - I'll go get a bigger shovel. [18:28] mad , this list is larger http://www.livecdlist.com/ [18:28] MadKaw,^ [18:34] MadKaw: What are you lokoing for? [18:36] looking [18:36] Ultimately, a reason for selecting a distro for multiple installs. I have "decided" to switch from Gnome to KDE for at least the next 3 years, and am trying to figure out whick KDE distro will be easiest to install and support on laptops. [18:42] MadKaw, i haven't tried many other distros lately , but I made sure I used kde ...kubuntu is still my choice for everyday use.. That's about it. === skreech__ is now known as Daskreech [18:43] MadKaw: Random laptops? or some specific subset you control? [18:46] Specific laptops - but a pretty random assortment based on what is currently owned. It includes Acer, Dell, HP, Gateway, and Samsung models. I have already checked the hardware compatibility and drivers should not be a major issue with the possible exception of the Samsung, which will require some tweaking to get the HDMI working. [18:47] MadKaw: You mean checked in regards to those distros or just the state of lInux in general? [18:49] Both. The Samsung appears to be the only issue. [19:06] MadKaw: Well then I guess just hang out in all three channels and see which one has the best support team [19:06] That should cover you [19:06] Now THAT is an excellent idea! [19:06] Glad that you got it [19:08] I debootstrapped a wheezy system and chrooted into it, but it can access out of it's / folder somehow [19:08] "top" can view all system processes [19:08] Why? [19:09] DFrostedWang: are you root? [19:09] Yes [19:09] I should make a new user? [19:10] no [19:10] Then what? [19:10] DFrostedWang: wait. hold on. when you say that you can't access outside it's / [19:10] do you mean you can't descend? [19:10] I mean it cant ascend [19:10] s/cant/can [19:11] Of course you can't [19:11] I debootstrapped a wheezy system and chrooted into it [19:11] I can, because I can see Firefox running outside chroot [19:11] chroot means change root [19:11] With "top" [19:11] ? [19:11] so your root is now where you chrooted into [19:11] Yeah [19:11] i.e. you cannot go above that [19:11] But Firefox isn't installed or running from chroot [19:12] Yes I know [19:12] How can it see it? [19:12] but that's kernel processes not filesystem [19:12] two different things [19:12] Huh... [19:12] Okay then [19:13] In a similar manner you can pull a executable from a different computer and run it on your local computer [19:13] or throw one from this computer onto another [19:13] Neat [19:13] kernel and file system are not tied to each other [19:14] if you mounted /proc to $wheezy-chroot/proc, you'll see processes from your 'native' OS [19:15] Oh [19:15] Okay [19:15] I did that...

[20:59] nsmgo, your network interfaces file should contain the line "auto eth0" [21:01] BluesKaj: bingo. thank you. [21:01] nsmgo, np [21:02] just wanting to say: without "auto eth0" i would have to use ifup/ifdown instead of service networking start now right? === ruairi is now known as samspade2701 [21:04] is someone looking at my problem just curious, that way I'm not waiting if no one is looking at it [21:09] nsmgo, not sure but if you want to move to static IP on your pc ..this is static on your LAN ,, not your internet IP http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/howto-ubuntu-linux-convert-dhcp-network-configuration-to-static-ip-configuration.html [21:10] yes, just static host/server on the lan which will run dns, dhcp, and router/gateway to another gateway to the WAN.

[21:18] BluesKaj: just a viewing of the interfaces file: comments welcome: http://paste.kde.org/530426/ [21:19] nsmgo, oh I'd forgotten about that , I have both lines in mine and it works [21:19] BluesKaj: =) my thoughts exactly [21:22] here's mine nsmgo http://paste.kde.org/530432/ [21:22] I have had almost zero problems with linux and am good about looking up to fix my own easy problems... but this is kinda a rediculous problem..... [21:22] I'm not a computer science engineer [21:22] I'm not a computer hardware engineer [21:22] no a computer software engineer [21:23] so I can only do so much [21:24] In fact I'm not YET a computer programmer-Although I'm learning C on my own. [21:24] no formal education with that [21:24] neither are we , mostly just experienced users , ooo but sometimes one comes up against companies that don't give hoot about linux and they'll do nothing to help altho their modem/router probly runs on linux [21:26] yeah comcast has no support for linux which is making things more difficult [21:27] the weird thing is the older modem worked flawlessly its just when I exchanged it for a modem/router instead of just a slower modem [21:30] this modem/router Combined.... has WPA2 encryption, Dox 3 whatever that is , faster connection speeds [21:31] so it worked before with this hardware, whatever driver, on the old modem and a linksys b old router [21:31] linksys b btw is old school [21:32] WEP encryption, slow, etc [21:32] ooo, looks to me you need to do some research about your particular router/modem is it a well known brand ? I so it might be loaded with proprietary firmware that can be worked around ,,, I'm sure others on liux are using the same equipment [21:33] ok its an Xfinity comcast modem/router [21:33] others on linux that is [21:33] they gave it to me [21:40] ooo, do you have web interface to your modem , run route -n to find the router IP . you might be able to firm up your wifi settings in the router itself , the IP will be under Gateway [21:41] 71.237.4.1 ---Gateway IP [21:41] i dont know what route -n is but ok [21:42] what is a web interface to my modem [21:45] Don't get me wrong linux is the best OS but for whatever reason behind the scenes people are not working with linux. [21:46] Linux is far better than windows and better than MAC OS.. [21:46] and every program I want on windows such as photoshop i can get on linux such as gimp for free [21:46] i don't understand the free as in beer part but its free [21:47] i don't pay a dime and it runs like a dream until this [21:49] ooo, type the route -n IP into a browser [21:54] type route -n 71.237.4.1 into a web browser? [21:56] type route -n into the terminal ,. then the resulting Gateway IP is typed into the browser addresbar [21:56] ok [21:56] does anyone know a solution to "/usr/lib/libkhtml.so.5: undefined symbol: _ZN6Phonon11VideoPlayer5eventEP6QEvent" google isn't very helpful here. I've checked the symlinks to libphonon and all point to /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libphonon.so.4.6.0 which seem to be correct [21:56] has anyone a clue what could cause this error? [21:56] it says its taking too long to respond [21:57] BluesKaj it won't load [21:59] the IP you used was directly underneath gateway in the terminal , correct , ooo ?
