[00:05] <Linusnewb> hi
[02:49] <kjinn> good morning
[04:15] <gurrag> Why is KDE refusing to honor my choice of what application launches mp3 files?
[04:16] <gurrag> it won't stop loading them in Audacity
[04:16] <gurrag> even if I right click on the file, set that type to open with Parole, click "Remember application association for this type of file" and run it, it'll only open in Parole that one time
[04:17] <gurrag> and immediately thereafter revert to opening them in Audacity
[04:17] <gurrag> this all just started happening yesterday, at which point my choice of default web browser had been switched to rekonq, luckily I was able to go in and set that back to Firefox earlier and that seems to have taken hold
[04:23] <umar_> hello
[04:24] <umar_> I want to know how to integrate libreoffice 3.6 with kde better
[04:24] <umar_> I'm new to kde
[04:24] <umar_> the drop down menu in libreoffice look ugly
[04:31] <gurrag> I solved my problem from just earlier
[04:31] <gurrag> somehow my mimeapps.list had become chown'd by root:root
[04:31] <gurrag> fixed the permissions and now things are working again
[06:29] <larsemil> morning
[06:30] <larsemil> i have a completely fresh install of kubuntu, with some big issues.
[06:30] <larsemil> if i click for example the meny, i cant see it open until i do something else on the screen. same goes for whatever i do. it does not redraw until i move another window or open new program
[06:30] <larsemil> is not usable at all
[06:30] <larsemil> any hints?
[06:54] <hateball> larsemil: Is this 12.04 ?
[06:54] <hateball> larsemil: And what graphics chipset/driver do you use?
[07:18] <inspiron> hello
[07:18] <inspiron> have any chinese?
[07:19] <inspiron> hello?
[07:19] <inspiron> omg
[07:45] <coolgoose> good morning guys
[07:46] <coolgoose> can anyone tell me what are all of those akonadi maildir resources in my kmail ?
[07:46] <coolgoose> and if it's alright to remove them
[08:25] <larsemil> hateball: solved it by using other nvidia driver
[08:25] <hateball> larsemil: :)
[09:11] <noaXess> hey all
[09:12] <noaXess> where to put additional parameters to apache start?
[09:12] <noaXess> in ubuntu.. is it in /etc/default/apache2?
[09:17] <tsimpson> noaXess: if it's /etc/default/apache2 in Ubuntu, then it is /etc/default/apache2 in Kubuntu too
[09:18] <noaXess> tsimpson: but can't add any option to apache start there..
[09:18] <noaXess> need to pass addition parameter to apache service start
[09:20] <tsimpson> noaXess: you don't pass any arguments to the daemon, you configure apache in /etc/apache2
[09:21] <noaXess> tsimpson: but i need t pass a the parameter -DDEV to the daemon... cause <IfDefine DEV></IfDefine> does only work if parameter -D is passed to the daemon
[09:23] <noaXess> i can do this to have -D parameter: sudo apache2ctl -D DEV -k start but manually.. and i want -D DEV automatically.. it's a local dev enviromet where i need -D DEV
[09:31] <tsimpson> noaXess: you'll have to edit the init script to do that /etc/init.d/apache2
[09:32] <noaXess> tsimpson: really? no other default place to add parameters?
[09:32] <tsimpson> not to the httpd daemon, at lease I can't see/find anywhere
[09:37] <tsimpson> noaXess: maybe you could add an export for APACHE_HTTPD in /etc/apcahce2/envvars with the command line arguments, but I don't know if apache2ctl picks that up
[09:42] <rockprincess> has anyone else had problems installing Skype on kubuntu?
[09:42] <rockprincess> I'm using Kubuntu 12.04
[09:42] <bazhang> rockprincess, from where
[09:43] <rockprincess> bazhang: thanks for the reply, I'm using the partner repositories.....deb http://archive.canonical.com/ precise partner and its sources
[09:44] <bazhang> rockprincess, what are the errors you get , if any
[09:47] <rockprincess> bazhang: oh sorry, forgot to mention....whenever i try to install it (apt-get install or aptitude install) it says it can't resolve the dependency skype-bin....it says it's a "virtual dependency"
[09:48] <bazhang> rockprincess, aptitude, if you are using that, would be an issue potentially
[09:48] <bazhang> !aptitude
[09:49] <rockprincess> bazhang: ok, so no more using of aptitude
[09:49] <bazhang> rockprincess, correct
[09:49] <rockprincess> bazhang: shall i force install it, with apt-get install -f ?
[09:50] <bazhang> rockprincess, not a good idea, unless we can not troubleshoot the exact issue
[09:51] <rockprincess> bazhang: what I already did was this: dpkg -l | grep skype and sudo dpkg --purge skype-bin:i386....and then tried installing it again, but it didn't help. i still get the skype-bin error message
[09:51] <Guest48821> hi..
[09:54] <shadeslayer> rockprincess: sudo apt-get purge skype if you're trying to purge skype altogether
[09:54] <shadeslayer> possibly sudo apt-get --reinstall install skype will work
[09:56] <rockprincess> shadeslayer: it says it can't purge skype, because it's not installed. I tried --reinstall as well, and it said "skype -- unknown operation"
[09:56] <shadeslayer> you missed install there
[09:56] <shadeslayer> though if it's not installed, just do sudo apt-get install skype?
[09:57] <rockprincess> shadeslayer: when running apt-get install skype i also noticed that it says at the bottom that there are some heldback defective packages
[09:57] <shadeslayer> rockprincess: can you pastebin the output?
[09:58] <rockprincess> shadeslayer: would love to, but unfortunately the output of apt-get is only in german :(
[09:58] <shadeslayer> that's fine, translate.google.com :)
[09:59] <tsimpson> you should be able to put "LANG=C" before the apt-get command to get English output
[10:00] <rockprincess> perfect :)
[10:00] <rockprincess> shadeslayer & tsimpson: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1268986/
[10:01] <shadeslayer> aha
[10:02] <rockprincess> aha? ;)
[10:04] <shadeslayer>  libfontconfig1:i386 : Depends: fontconfig-config:i386 (= 2.8.0-3ubuntu9.1) is the actual issue :P
[10:04] <shadeslayer> for some reason I have 2.10.1-0ubuntu2~ppa1 installed
[10:04] <shadeslayer> and I don't know where it comes from
[10:04] <bazhang> a ppa
[10:05] <shadeslayer> no no, if it were a ppa, apt-cache policy would tell me
[10:06] <rockprincess> hmm it says "Note, selecting 'fontconfig-config' instead of 'fontconfig-config:i386'" and fontconfig-config is already installed
[10:06] <rockprincess> then i tried to install  libfontconfig1:i386
[10:06] <shadeslayer> well, ok, the versioning says ppa1
[10:06] <rockprincess> and there was another unmet dependency....I don't understand it, I've NEVER had such problems installing skype.
[10:06] <rockprincess> on any ubuntu version
[10:08] <bazhang> https://launchpad.net/~g-christ/+ppa-packages  it's a PPA
[10:08] <shadeslayer> hm
[10:08] <shadeslayer> ah yes
[10:08] <shadeslayer> now I remember, I was testing the 0.3 lightdm ppa, manually installed debs from there
[10:10] <rockprincess> hmm, do you think there is any way I could fix this dependency dilemma?
[10:16] <rockprincess> shadeslayer: since fontconfig-config is already installed on my system, it can't be the actual issue, can it?
[10:18] <shadeslayer> I can't say, looks like it wants to install the i386 version of fontconfig-config but can't satisfy the deps
[10:18] <shadeslayer> I'm purging the g-christ ppa to check
[10:19] <Guest66176> hi can anyone help. I'm now in a vmware guest kubuntu typing this, but I can't get shared folders to work with windows. I've added this to the bottom of fstab but it fails to mount on boot:  .host:/c /mnt/hgfs/HostShare vmhgfs defaults,ttl=5,uid=1000,gid=1000 0 0
[10:21] <shadeslayer> rockprincess: yeah, it's a issue on your system, once I purge the ppa it works
[10:22] <shadeslayer> rockprincess: so, let's see, what does : sudo apt-get install skype-bin : say ?
[10:23] <rockprincess> shadeslayer: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1269014/
[10:24] <shadeslayer> okay
[10:24] <rockprincess> shadeslayer: hmm I'm afraid I will walk right into dependency hell :(
[10:24] <shadeslayer> yeah, there's something very wrong
[10:24] <shadeslayer> rockprincess: try installing every one of those deps, and check which one doesn't install
[10:25] <rockprincess> shadeslayer: ok, thank you :)
[10:26]  * shadeslayer has to get back to work
[10:28] <rockprincess> shadeslayer: it looks like it always wants to install the i386 versions, but why? the libqt4-dbus is already the newest version. and the libqt4-dbus:i386 wants too many dependencies......dependencies hell :(
[10:29] <shadeslayer> sorry can't help you then, you'll have to figure out the deps
[10:29] <rockprincess> I re-installed my kubuntu last sunday...two days ago. weird.
[10:30] <rockprincess> thanks for your support though :)
[10:31] <shadeslayer> check if you added any weird PPA's
[10:31] <shadeslayer> I only have the kubuntu backports ppa enabled
[10:41] <rockprincess> shadeslayer: i now only have these PPA's enabled: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1269036/ ....do you have the sources for kubuntu backports ppa enabled as well?
[10:42] <shadeslayer> did you check /etc/apt/sources.list.d/
[10:43] <rockprincess> shadeslayer: there's two files in there....
[10:43] <rockprincess> shadeslayer: yannubuntu-boot-repair-precise.list and yannubuntu-boot-repair-precise.list.save
[10:43] <shadeslayer> rockprincess: I'd suggest purging that ppa
[10:44] <shadeslayer> and try to install skype
[10:44] <rockprincess> ok, how do I purge a ppa?
[10:45] <shadeslayer> install ppa-purge and then sudo ppa-purge ppa:user/foo
[10:45] <shadeslayer> ofcourse, you replace user and foo with appropriate values :)
[10:45] <rockprincess> yep :)
[11:09] <alvin> I want to rescue a Kubuntu installation where libc6 was 'downgraded' (absolutely nothing works anymore). Boot LiveCD, rescue mode. / is mounted on /target. So far, so good. Now I want to install the package using dpkg --root=/target, BUT dpkg doesn't seem to be installed on the alternate cd. Same goes for apt-get and aptitude. How can one install a package from the live environment?
[12:00] <BluesKaj> Hey all
[14:25] <Palbuddy1234> help please I'm trying to update blender and I'm using this website for help...http://www.ehow.com/how_8727375_upgrade-blender-ubuntu.html but the problem is that I get to ./configure and nothing happens thanks so much in advance
[14:31] <Palbuddy1234> oh wrong channel! I'm sorry
[14:53] <Palbuddy1234_> newbie help please I'm trying to update blender on my machine and have been following these directions...http://www.ehow.com/how_8727375_upgrade-blender-ubuntu.html however when I get to ./configure nothing happens, can someone help me please?
[14:53] <Palbuddy1234_> thanks in advance of course
[14:59] <BluesKaj> Palbuddy1234_, blender is in the software center reposiotry , why not install it there
[14:59] <Palbuddy1234_> because it's not upgraded for the latest openshotvideo that I want to use
[14:59] <Palbuddy1234_> it needs the higher version
[15:00] <BluesKaj> did you try to run make after ./configure ?
[15:00] <Palbuddy1234_> I can try..
[15:00] <Palbuddy1234_> error message make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found.  Stop.
[15:02] <BluesKaj> make sure you're in the blender folder , and you have build-essential installed
[15:02] <Palbuddy1234_> I think I am as I'm in this directory '~/myBlender/blender-2.64-linux-glibc27-x86_64$'
[15:03] <BluesKaj> hdo you see the readme and install text files there
[15:03] <Palbuddy1234_> yes..one sec I'll read them :)
[15:05] <BluesKaj> Palbuddy1234_, build-essential is necessary for the make/build phase of compiling
[15:05] <phoenix_firebrd> hello everyone
[15:05] <phoenix_firebrd> BluesKaj: hi
[15:06] <BluesKaj> hey phoenix_firebrd
[15:06] <Palbuddy1234_> okay well blender the executable works fine, but when I run openshotvideo it can only find the old version
[15:08] <BluesKaj> sorry I'm not familiar with openshot
[15:08] <Palbuddy1234_> ah well, thanks I suppose I'll just wait for it to be in the repository
[15:08] <Palbuddy1234_> thanks for the help, learning linux step-by-step :)
[15:09] <Palbuddy1234_> have a good day/night
[15:10] <phoenix_firebrd> nepomuk forgets the indexed files after restart. the files are in drives which are mounted manually
[15:15] <artao> just wanted to pop in to say: whoever decided to include Totem in Kubuntu (Ubuntu?) by default REALLY needs to be repeatedly kicked in the nuts
[15:16] <artao> totem has got to be THE WORST media player I have ever used
[15:16] <bazhang> artao, thats not appropriate
[15:16] <artao> neither is Totem
[15:16] <bazhang> artao, then use something else
[15:16] <artao> ttfn
[15:16] <artao> well, seeing how it's installed by default, it took awhile to figure out just how terrible it is
[15:26] <phoenix_firebrd> !askubuntu
[15:27] <phoenix_firebrd> BluesKaj: does askubuntu.com support kubuntu?
[15:29] <BluesKaj> phoenix_firebrd, good question , but I have no idea if it does
[15:30] <phoenix_firebrd> BluesKaj: is there something like that for the kde part apart from forms
[15:30] <phoenix_firebrd> BluesKaj: *forums
[15:32] <BluesKaj> maybe kubuntu-devel or kde-devel , phoenix_firebrd , I'm not real sure
[15:32] <BluesKaj> seldom use askubuntu
[15:36] <phoenix_firebrd> BluesKaj: :)
[15:36] <phoenix_firebrd> brb
[15:40] <ebravick_> So I've not installed KDE / Kubuntu for a few years - just installed some new boxes...  none of my DCOP stuff works.
[15:40] <ebravick_> anyone know what happened to DCOP?
[15:41] <ebravick_> (i.e. it doesn't appear to exist anymore...  at all?)
[16:07] <artao> HA!!! Screw Totem!!! .. I installed the  VLC firefox plugin and BAM!!! divx IMMEDIATELY playes with absolutely NO problems ... .... I also removed all traces of Totem that I could find
[16:07] <artao> so why isn't VLC the default and NOT the broken POS that is Totem?
[16:07] <artao> GAHHH
[16:08] <artao> I've found threads online going back at LEAST 6 years talking about how much Totem sucks and wondering why it's included with Ubuntu by default
[16:08] <artao> ridiculous
[16:09] <artao> Totem = bad media experience for end-users .. ... UNLESS they happen to be a linux guru and know exactly what extras to install and "fix"
[16:09] <artao> if there were a #totem i would go rant about it there
[16:10] <artao> it may come as a shock to linux gurus, but MOST people want to USE their computers, not fight with the OS
[16:11] <artao> and i'm hardly a linux n00b ... i could NOT get Totem to work with DivX files. At. All.
[16:11] <artao> and my reading turns up that THIS IS COMMON
[16:11] <artao> ridiculous
[16:11] <artao> utterly ridiculous
[16:16] <bbeck> artao: Did totem come by default with Kubuntu, I thought it was a Gnome app?
[16:17] <artao> i certainly don't recall ever installing it
[16:17] <bbeck> weird
[16:17] <artao> sorry for my ranting, but it has given me a headache
[16:17] <xenoph> I don't appear to have Totem installed, and I do not believe I've uninstalled it.
[16:17] <Shaan7> Riddell: hi!
[16:19] <xenoph> Dragonplayer is the default player in 12.04.
[16:21] <artao> well look at that. there IS something called DragonPlayer
[16:21] <artao> no Firefox plugin tho
[16:21] <artao> why isn't VLC in by default?
[16:21] <artao> i have yet to find a better media player for ... well ... ANY OS
[16:21] <eean> Dragon player w00t
[16:22] <artao> it just plays anything. period.
[16:22] <Riddell> hello Shaan7
[16:23]  * eean logs out of his unity desktop to login to plasma, could only stand it about a day :)
[16:24] <xenoph> I don't think I've had any issues with Dragonplayer as of yet. Needed to download some additional codecs, but it did all of that automatically.
[16:24] <xenoph> Then again, I've not used it much.
[16:24] <Shaan7> Riddell: wanted to give some updates, we wrote and had some review over a PMC announcement on dot, and few days back we were trying a release. However, it doesnt seem to work with the newer nepomuk we have in KDE 4.9 :/
[16:25] <Shaan7> and as we had to remove the plasma-mobile dependency anyway, I think the release will happen once we're got rid of that and use the new nepomuk.
[16:25] <Shaan7> Riddell: just wanted to keep you updated, felt very bad that nothing happened on the release front after you helped so much at akademy :(
[16:26] <Riddell> Shaan7: aah nepomuk being pesky
[16:27] <Riddell> Shaan7: spoken to vhanda about it?
[16:27] <massy> hello
[16:28] <Shaan7> Riddell: yea, its intended, all this time I was testing against 4.8.5 and something has changed in 4.9. It doesnt affect other stuff but PMC (sadly) uses half of its metadata from plasma mobile's datamodel and half from nepomuk directly
[16:29] <Shaan7> and when it tries to use them at the same time, boom
[16:29] <Shaan7> but yea, the fix should just take few days
[16:29] <Shaan7> will keep you posted :)
[16:34] <massy> hello everybody
[16:34] <massy> there is somebody that can help me with ubuntu?
[16:34] <massy> in first time, am sorry for my english is not well, i am italian
[16:35] <guger> massy, yes we can!
[16:38] <massy> hi guger sorry
[16:38] <massy> i have a problem
[16:38] <massy> okay?
[16:38] <massy> i have installed ubuntu on my pc, 12.04 LTS
[16:38] <massy> is fantastic
[16:39] <massy> but my problem is that i dont know how install app by terminal
[16:39] <guger> massy: I use: sudo apt-get install name_of_the_app
[16:40] <massy> okay
[16:40] <guger> and apt-cache search search terms to find package names
[16:40] <massy> guger i have udes windows for a life and now i have installed ubuntu
[16:40] <massy> i know that comand
[16:40] <massy> sudo
[16:41] <massy> because with windows there are too much virus
[16:41] <massy> and one of these have formatted my HDD losing about 200gb of file
[16:41] <guger> sudo is used to gain administrator privileges during the execution of the supplied command line
[16:42] <massy> yes i know
[16:42] <massy> sudo apt-get install name-of-pack
[16:42] <massy> then password
[16:42] <massy> then ask password
[16:43] <guger> ask password?
[16:44] <massy> yes
[16:44] <massy> i open terminal
[16:44] <massy> i install programm
[16:44] <massy> example
[16:44] <massy> sudo apt-get install skype
[16:45] <massy> then ask password
[16:45] <massy> password of root
[16:45] <guger> just yours, not the root one, normally
[16:45] <massy> okay
[16:46] <massy> guger is difficul learn ubuntu by script, or terminal??
[16:46] <guger> massy: no, it's just a set of commands
[16:47] <massy> i must learn that
[16:47] <massy> there is a site where i can learn?? freeware? ehehehe
[16:47] <guger> Google is your best friend
[16:48] <massy> okay
[16:48] <massy> thank you guger
[16:48] <massy> u are the best
[16:48] <guger> but the shell you are using is called bash (I think) and when you want to do some sophisticated stuff you probably want to google that
[16:48] <guger> bash scripting
[16:48] <massy> okay bash scripting
[16:49] <guger> but for the basic stuff you're probably happy with the normal commands
[16:49] <massy> i install programs with software center of ubuntu
[16:49] <massy> i must learn basic mode
[16:49] <massy> not advanced
[16:50] <massy> now for example, i use for irc a program called quassel irc
[16:50] <massy> in automatic i am here in kubuntu irc
[16:50] <BluesKaj> well, basic is the terminal IMO :)
[16:50] <massy> but i use ubuntu
[16:50] <massy> is the same?
[16:51] <BluesKaj> !kubuntu | massy
[16:51] <massy> okay
[16:51] <BluesKaj> !ubuntu
[16:52] <massy> okay i understand
[16:52] <massy> i go on ubuntu site
[16:52] <BluesKaj> kubuntu use the kde desktop , ubuntu uses gnome/unity
[16:52] <massy> and i add an account on forum
[16:53] <massy> understand
[16:53] <massy> thank you blueskaj
[16:53] <massy> u aregentle
[17:36] <orated> Hello! How can I install plasma-active or kubuntu-active in Kubuntu 12.04? Can it be installed as a session type? Even after installing kubuntu-active package in Kubuntu 12.04 I'm not able to use it
[17:50] <massy> hello everybody
[18:00] <lordievader> Hey massy, how are you?
[18:05] <massy> hi lord, i am fine thank you and you?
[18:06] <lordievader> massy: I'm doing good, do you need help with something?
[18:06] <massy> yes
[18:06] <massy> i am sorry but am new on linux
[18:06] <lordievader> !ask | massy
[18:07] <massy> !patience
[18:07] <phoenix_firebrd> ha ha ha
[18:07] <massy> eheheh
[18:08] <massy> i told am new here
[18:08] <phoenix_firebrd> certainly you are :D
[18:08] <massy> ok
[18:08] <DarthFrog> massy: No worries.  Everyone was new at some time.
[18:08] <lordievader> massy: Nothing wrong with being new.
[18:08] <massy> i am learning to use ubuntu
[18:09] <massy> for now is fantastic
[18:09] <massy> i like
[18:09] <DarthFrog> massy:  Are you using Ubuntu or Kubuntu?
[18:09] <massy> ubuntu 12.04lts
[18:09] <phoenix_firebrd> ya
[18:09] <phoenix_firebrd> massy: unity?
[18:09] <massy> am italian
[18:09] <massy> yes phoenix
[18:09] <DarthFrog> massy:  This is not the support channel for Ubuntu.  This is #kubuntu.  You want #Ubuntu instead.
[18:10] <massy> ok i must join there??
[18:10] <phoenix_firebrd> massy: have you tried kubuntu?
[18:10] <lordievader> massy: Or #ubuntu-it if you want the italian channel.
[18:10] <DarthFrog> If you want help with Ubuntu, yes. :-)
[18:10] <lordievader> At least I suspect it exists.
[18:10] <DarthFrog> !it
[18:11] <massy> okay this chan is on same serverof kubuntu??
[18:11] <lordievader> DarthFrog: Thank you.
[18:11] <massy> okay
[18:11] <DarthFrog> massy:  If those channel names are highlighted, you can just click on them to join those channels.
[18:11] <massy> but i understnad english
[18:12] <massy> okay thank you
[18:12] <massy> guys
[18:12] <DarthFrog> massy:  There are many individual Ubuntu support channels in other languages.
[18:12] <massy> good but i know italian
[18:12] <massy> ehehehehe
[18:13] <afink> anyone know if there will be any of this amazon integration bs in kubuntu?
[18:13] <DarthFrog> massy:  If a user feels more comfortable in their own language, chances are they can get help in their language.  If they're comfortable in English, then the main #ubuntu channel is available for them.
[18:13] <DarthFrog> afink: Doubtful.
[18:13] <afink> thank goodness
[18:14] <DarthFrog> afink:  Kubuntu development is community-based, not via Canonical.
[18:14] <afink> no wonder its so much better!
[18:14] <afink> thanks DarthFrog
[18:15] <DarthFrog> afink: As I understand it, the Amazon search results are part of a Unity lens.  Lenses are not implemented in Kubuntu.
[18:17] <afink> thats what I read too, just wanted to make sure.
[18:19] <DarthFrog> afink:  I don't know for sure one way or the other, please don't take my word as gospel. :-)  I'm just a user like you.
[18:28] <orated> Hello! How can I install plasma-active or kubuntu-active in Kubuntu 12.04? Can it be installed as a session type? Even after installing kubuntu-active package in Kubuntu 12.04 I'm not able to use it
[18:41] <avihay> orated: go to system settings->Workspace behaviour->workspace, do you have plasma active listed in the Workspace Type drop-down list?
[18:43] <orated> avihay: I see only Desktop and Netbook options. No Plasma Active
[18:54] <avihay> well the brute force way is to kill plasma-desktop and run plasma-active. it can probably be installed as a session type, I guess you can find the sessions folder copy the default kde entry and change it there
[19:10] <orated> avihay: After installing kubuntu-active package, I logged out and selected session type as KDE Plasma Contours Active Workspace. It loads a splash screen with few curves and then stopped at a point. Something like stopping at Settings icon when KDE splash screen loads.
[19:12] <avihay> well, I don't really have a clue, I did some searching, but I didn't find an answer, try killing plasma desktop and running plasma active
[19:13] <avihay> I think the executable is called active-desktop and not plasma active, but I don't recall, you can check in synaptic
[19:20] <orated> I'll try, thanks
[20:18] <shadeslayer> afink: though you can get amazon search results in KRunner
[20:18] <shadeslayer> i.e. if you want them :)
[20:22] <SIR_Taco_> ?
[20:22] <shadeslayer> well .. there's the amzn: keyword in krunner :)
[20:23] <shadeslayer> so if you type something like : amzn:kindle : in krunner, hit enter > opens browser with search results
[20:24] <SIR_Taco_> shadeslayer: maybe on yours... not on mine. Sure you haven't added a krunner plugin?
[20:25] <shadeslayer> yeah, you might have to enable some plugin
[20:25] <shadeslayer> I usually enable all of them, so not sure which one provides that particular one
[20:26] <SIR_Taco_> shadeslayer: not sure... all mine are enabled, don't have an amazon option... possibly because I'm not using Rekonq?
[20:30] <shadeslayer> SIR_Taco_: http://vizzzion.org/blog/2012/09/online-search-results-in-the-shell/
[20:31] <avihay> it would have been nice if the info button on the plug-in would show additional info like, say, usage info...
[20:31] <shadeslayer> avihay: you could file a extra mile bug for that :)
[20:32] <shadeslayer> atleast sounds like a extramile issue to me
[20:32] <avihay> I agree
[20:32] <avihay> umm, how?
[20:32] <shadeslayer> feel free to discuss on #kde-quality
[20:33] <shadeslayer> hm, let me find the wiki link
[20:33] <Ramtron> How do I run a .jar file? It gives me a warning whenever I click open with JDK 7
[20:34] <shadeslayer> avihay:
[20:34] <shadeslayer> http://community.kde.org/Getinvolved/Extra_Mile
[20:34] <shadeslayer> Ramtron: warning?
[20:34] <shadeslayer> isn't that a good thing incase you accidentally download a malicious jar file
[20:35] <Ramtron> Something about it isn't marked as an executable
[20:35] <shadeslayer> ah
[20:35] <Ramtron> How would I go about installing it?
[20:35] <shadeslayer> right click file > Properties
[20:35] <shadeslayer> under the permissions tab
[20:36] <Ramtron> I see
[20:36] <Ramtron> Could this be malicious?
[20:36] <Ramtron> Torrented it.
[20:36] <SIR_Taco_> shadeslayer: seems I don't have 'plasma-runners-addons' installed (which has those krunners)
[20:37] <shadeslayer> cool
[20:37] <shadeslayer> Ramtron: entirely possible
[20:37] <Ramtron> But because it wasn't marked as executable is it more of a risk
[20:51] <frafra> ss
[20:52] <frafra> film
[20:52] <avihay> well, if you hit the question mark in krunner, it shows you a list of what terms you can use
[22:22] <Num83rGuy> I have a D-Link DWL 520 wireless card that is recognized but has no MAC address and receives no stations. Could anyone help?
[22:24] <Num83rGuy> I am going to post this in #ubuntu as well.
[22:25] <Num83rGuy> Sorry it's a little more active.
[22:27] <SIR_Taco_> Num83rGuy: likely you need the older ath_pci driver, not the newer ath5k/ath9k drivers (had a problem with an older wireless 530 card)
[22:29] <Num83rGuy> it is identified as an intersil using prisim 2.5 / 3
[22:31] <SIR_Taco_> ah, not the chipset I expected
[22:33] <dahlia> so I get a system notification that says to upgrade to "Ubuntu 12.04 LTS" but I'm running kubuntu 11.10. If I press the "Upgrade" button, will it install ubuntu instead of kubuntu?
[22:34] <dahlia> I need to do something because X has been terribly messed up since I did the last apt-get dist upgrade
[22:36] <SIR_Taco_> dahlia: it should only update what is currently installed on your system (plus the odd program that might be required for the newer version of software you have installed). Gnome shouldn't be installed
[22:36] <dahlia> ty
[22:37] <dahlia> I should probably just install a new one since X is so messed up
[23:22] <fparreira> ola..
[23:22] <fparreira> algum brasileiro ?
