[01:10] <zacarias> I have installed Nautilus, but there are no icons. Actually, there is just a generic white icon for all the folders, no theme icons. Any idea?
[01:14] <SIR_Taco_> zacarias: possibly install 'gnome-icon-theme-full' ? Nautilus is a GTK program... KDE is based on Qt
[01:23] <zacarias> SIR_Taco_: Thanks, I'll try that
[01:28] <zacarias> SIR_Taco_: Well, now I have the icons, it worked, but... I don't have my KDE theme (Faenza) icons, but some awful icons... :-)
[01:32] <SIR_Taco_> zacarias: ok... what settings do you have under System Settings -> Application Appearance -> GTK Appearance
[01:36] <Crell> Hi folks.  I've an odd problem.  In my KDE System Settings, I have firefox set as my default web browser.  In Thunderbird, though (and possibly other programs), clicking links always opens in Chrome.
[01:36] <Crell> How do I force it to listen to my default and use Firefox?
[01:37] <zacarias> SIR_Taco_: Widget Style: oxygen-gtk, and "Use my KDE fonts on GTK+ applications"
[01:38] <SIR_Taco_> zacarias: do you have "gtk configuration" as an option on the left?
[01:39] <zacarias> SIR_Taco_: No :-(
[01:39] <SIR_Taco_> zacarias: what version of KDE are you using?
[01:39] <zacarias> 4.8. I'm on Kubuntu 12.04
[01:40] <zacarias> SIR_Taco_: 4.8. I'm on Kubuntu 12.04
[01:41] <zacarias> SIR_Taco_: I noticed I have a kde-config-gtk package installed
[01:47] <SIR_Taco_> might be worth updating to the latest backports if you don't have the following: http://postimage.org/image/n5bnfpmzr/   http://postimage.org/image/yrbi4wdp7/
[01:48] <SIR_Taco_> then you can remove the gnome icon theme
[01:49] <zacarias> SIR_Taco_: You're right, I don't have those option. I'll try to see what happens. Thanks!
[02:40] <capitaninsaneoh> I accidentially added lamp to my desktop (2 consoles open) and I removed it and lost KDE.  I've since put it back with apt-get install kubuntu-desktop but now I still see Mysql running on 3306.  Is this right?
[02:41] <capitaninsaneoh> Should it be there or should i remove it?  How do I remove ONLY it and not KDE
[02:41] <shadeslayer> just installing kubuntu-desktop won't remove LAMP
[02:41] <shadeslayer> apt-get doesn't work that way
[02:42] <capitaninsaneoh> I removed AMP with tasksel
[02:42] <capitaninsaneoh> but it left mysql
[02:42] <shadeslayer> amarok uses mysql iirc
[02:43] <SIR_Taco_> yes it does, and akondai too I believe
[02:43] <shadeslayer> % apt-cache depends amarok | grep mysql                                                                      shadeslayer@solembum
[02:43] <shadeslayer>   Depends: libmysqlclient18
[02:43] <shadeslayer>   Suggests: libqt4-sql-mysql
[02:43] <shadeslayer> so yeah
[02:43] <FloodBotK1> shadeslayer: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[02:43] <shadeslayer> FloodBotK1: oh you
[02:45] <capitaninsaneoh> But it never showed up as an open port (from an nmap scan) before I messed my machine up
[03:08] <Crell> Hi folks.  I've an odd problem.  In my KDE System Settings, I have firefox set as my default web browser.  In Thunderbird, though (and possibly other programs), clicking links always opens in Chrome.  How do I force it to listen to my default and use Firefox?
[03:12] <uglyoldbob> im having a problem with a raid array, I see a removed drive in the array and cant figure out how to remove it using mdadm
[03:20] <capitaninsaneoh> Can I remove mysql without removing KDE?
[03:24] <capitaninsaneoh> Should mysql port be visible to nmap scan on Kubuntu machine 12.04?
[03:25] <capitaninsaneoh> I remember IPP and Cups should be there but don't remember mysql port 3306
[03:28] <uglyoldbob> port 3306 is the mysql server, it would indicate that is running
[03:31] <capitaninsaneoh> uglyoldbob, how do I disable it?
[03:32] <uglyoldbob> do you have any need for it at all?
[03:33] <uglyoldbob> try "dpkg -l | grep mysql" (the first is an ehl adn the second is pipe)
[03:34] <uglyoldbob> it should show a list of packages related to mysql
[03:34] <capitaninsaneoh> sudo update-rc.d mysql-server remove
[03:34] <capitaninsaneoh> ?
[03:35] <uglyoldbob> i dont think that is the best solution for you
[03:35] <uglyoldbob> you should be able to completely remove it with "sudo apt-get remove mysql-server"
[03:35] <capitaninsaneoh> wont that remove kde
[03:36] <uglyoldbob> it will show a list of packages that it wants to remove and ask you yes/no
[03:36] <capitaninsaneoh> it claims its not installed
[03:36] <capitaninsaneoh> but nmap shows 3306 open
[03:37] <uglyoldbob> what is the output of "dpkg -l | grep mysql" ?
[03:37] <capitaninsaneoh> but not from remote
[03:38] <capitaninsaneoh> http://paste.kde.org/566570/
[03:40] <capitaninsaneoh> uglyoldbob, that pastebin is for you
[03:42] <uglyoldbob> try "sudo apt-get -s remove mysql-server-5.5"
[03:51] <capitaninsaneoh> not installed
[04:00] <pepee> reboot?
[04:01] <pepee> ah, he left
[06:42] <14WAAITY1> Quassel IRc (12.04) doesn't obey my language settings, I've got LANGUAGE=en.GB-utf8, LANG=en.GB-utf8, but still my Quassel IRC client is using norwegian language. Anybody had similar problems ?
[06:43] <cosmicb> Quassel IRc (12.04) doesn't obey my language settings, I've got LANGUAGE=en.GB-utf8, LANG=en.GB-utf8, but still my Quassel IRC client is using norwegian language. Anybody had similar problems ?
[06:43] <lordievader> !patience | cosmicb
[06:43] <cosmicb> I'm in norway though, but I've always used english lang
[06:44] <cosmicb> lordievader: didn't mean to stress, ust noticed my nick was wrong and that I was on FreeNode in an other channel
[06:44] <lordievader> cosmicb: No worries.
[06:45] <cosmicb> :)
[06:45] <cosmicb> I do have setup several locale's in my .bashrc where I f.example use nb_NO-utf8 for lc_numeric and others, see http://pastebin.com/uG2Atudn
[06:46] <cosmicb> mabye Quassel is getting confused (?)
[06:46] <lordievader> cosmicb: What does you locale variable say? (In a terminal run "locale")
[06:47] <cosmicb> lordievader see http://pastebin.com/uG2Atudn
[06:48] <lordievader> cosmicb: You would think it would simply be in English, wouldn't you.
[06:48] <cosmicb> lordievader (?)
[06:49] <lordievader> cosmicb: Doesn't Quassel have its own language settings? Independent from the locale variable?
[06:49] <cosmicb> lordievader: looking into it
[06:49]  * cosmicb havent been in kde for many many years
[06:51] <cosmicb> lordievader: you're right, it did have it's own language settings. I missed that setting the first time I checked :p
[06:51]  * cosmicb passing a beer to lordievader
[06:52] <lordievader> cosmicb: Beer early in the morning? Can you make it coffee :P
[06:53] <cosmicb> lordievader: you're right ! here you go :p

[06:56] <whyme1234> anyone heard of such a thing
[06:56] <cosmicb> Guest99153 : I'd find the ip address for that mac and nmap it
[06:56] <lordievader> whyme: Try ##networking, this is a Kubuntu support channel.
[06:56] <whyme1234> i did
[06:57] <whyme1234> all 1000 ports closed
[06:57] <cosmicb> whyme1234 follow lordievaders advise
[07:25] <Smurphy> Morning ....
[08:21] <fuzzles> ive got a question how come when i used to use ubuntu it was good till unity only cuz unity isnt me switched to linux mint for ages but packages always breaking and now using kubuntu nd packages are fine what is mint doign to messing up the os?
[08:22] <DarthFrog> fuzzles: Wrong place to ask.  We're Kubuntu support, not Linux Mint.
[08:24] <fuzzles> DarthFrog: i know im suing kubuntu now i was just curious of the case if anyone knows because its ubuntu bases yet there packages always break
[08:24] <DarthFrog> Perhaps they're not doing sufficient amount of testing prior to release.
[08:27] <fuzzles> DarthFrog: ok thanks its because of the breaking i finally left them and as i liked there kde and found out they just use kubuntu repos thats what i tried
[08:47] <lxuser__> huhu
[08:47] <lxuser_> test test
[08:47] <lxuser__> blbubb
[08:48] <lxuser__> kannnoob
[08:56] <CosmicB> hmm, where do I change mouse theme in kde (kubuntu 12.04) ?
[08:57] <lordievader> CosmicB: System Settings -> Workspace Appearance -> Cursor Theme
[08:58] <CosmicB> lordievader: AH, thnx
[08:58]  * CosmicB like Oxygen White
[09:22] <Peace-> CosmicB: there is a serch box btw
[09:22] <Peace-> search*
[09:23] <CosmicB> Peace : yeah, tride that one, but I didn't get the hint :p
[09:24] <CosmicB> my head connects workspace with virtual desktops :\ , if I'd hold my mous over workspace appearance I'd figured it out though :)
[09:32] <lordievader> The System Settings is very illogic if you ask me...
[09:34] <hateball> I think there was a GSoC project to sort it out for 4.10 or some such
[09:34]  * hateball just uses krunner
[09:36] <Peace-> lordievader: i dunno i always search
[09:36] <Peace-> and fount it out
[09:36] <Peace-> CosmicB: mmm look at the list http://wstaw.org/m/2012/10/11/plasma-desktopfk1909.png
[09:37] <Peace-> there is mouse theme
[09:37] <CosmicB> Peace: thnx
[09:38] <CosmicB> Peace what are U running in your panel, those application icons (?) looking nice.
[09:39] <Peace-> CosmicB: that is my own panel made in javascript
[09:39] <Peace-> it's called icontask
[09:39] <CosmicB> Peace: ah, nice !
[09:40] <Peace-> CosmicB: there is a packaged debian in my ppa btw
[09:41] <CosmicB> Peace: ok, cool feature, I might try that out
[09:41] <Peace-> CosmicB: http://kde-apps.org/content/show.php?content=147589
[09:41] <CosmicB> Peace : already there :p
[09:41] <Peace-> CosmicB: you can try it out even now without install that
[09:41] <Peace-> if you do sudo apt-get install plasma-wdiget-* it will install a lots of stuff it should be ... plasma-widget-icontask
[09:47] <CosmicB> everytime I'm back in kde I'm wondering what made me use gnome (and recently unity) for so long :p
[09:51] <CosmicB> Peace: nice work ! I'm gonna check out those panels more thorough at a later time

[17:31] <bjrohan> Is there a widget that allows you to see, compose, and reply to gmail on your desktop by chance? I have found the gmail notifier.
[18:17] <orated> Hello! Kubuntu 12.04 KDE 4.8.5 Under System Settings > Display and Monitor > Screen Saver .. I've enabled "Allow widgets on screen saver" option. I've a virtual keyboard widget added in screen saver to test whether it can allow me to type password using it instead of keyboard. But, it doesn't. It allows either the widget or the unlock dialog to work independently, not simultaneously. Is there a way I can have the widget work to unlock screen?
[18:22] <milovan> hi, is there a way to set numpad numbers as shortcuts in kde?

[21:04] <Mcklaren> hi
[22:17] <bjrohan> I have Samba I believe installed on 2 computers, one Ubuntu the other Kubuntu. I would like to access the Ubuntu machine's drives/folders, how do I do this from my Kubuntu machine? Everything is set up properly, as I can get to both machines via my android phone albeit using internet vs intarnet setup
[22:29] <ner0x> Is it possible to save all my settings and move them to another computer?
[22:30] <jessie> ner0x: Copy you .kde and .config directories in your home directory.
[22:30] <jessie> That should pretty well cover your KDE settings.
[22:30] <jessie> If you want to copy all your settings, copying your whole home directory should cover that pretty well.
[22:31] <bjrohan> How do I go about finding other computers on my home network in Kubuntu?
[22:33] <uomo_bonga> you want to find samba shares?
[22:33] <bjrohan> Yes
[22:33] <bjrohan> I have Samba on both machines, I also have the office machine I am looking for set up as a static IP
[22:34] <uomo_bonga> ok, do you don't find them on dolphin right?
[22:35] <bjrohan> I don't. In dolphin on the right I clicked Network, then selected FTP, placed the network address for the computer I am looking for but I get an error message
[22:36] <jessie> Samba is not the same as FTP
[22:36] <bjrohan> How to I use the Samba Share? When I go to the option in Dolphin all I see is workgroups
[22:37] <jessie> Select the workgroup your computers are in.
[22:37] <jessie> Then your computer should come up.
[22:37] <bjrohan> That is where I now get lost
[22:37] <bjrohan> I only see what looks like a default workgroup icon
[22:37] <bjrohan> How do I make sure that Sambma share is set up right on both computers?
[22:38] <jessie> That, I can't really help you with.
[22:38] <jessie> My Samba skills are not amazing.
[22:39] <uomo_bonga> so inside "workgroup" you don't find any share?
[22:40] <bjrohan> I don't. I am not 100% positive that either system is set up correctly :-(
[22:40] <uomo_bonga> ok, do you know the ip address of the host with the remote share?
[22:41] <bjrohan> 192.168.0.2
[22:41] <bjrohan> for internal router of course
[22:41] <uomo_bonga> ok, now try this
[22:41] <bjrohan> I did just open the KDE Samba control panel and it says I don't have a config file
[22:41] <bjrohan> ok
[22:41] <uomo_bonga> open dolphin properties and check the option "editable location bar"
[22:42] <bjrohan> did that
[22:42] <bjrohan> Or I should say Done now
[22:43] <uomo_bonga> put this on the location bar: smb://192.168.0.2
[22:43] <bjrohan> WHOOP there it is
[22:45] <uomo_bonga> found your shared folders?
[22:45] <bjrohan> Yep, that way I can
[22:46] <bjrohan> Now I can make a shortcut of these folders on the left pain and it will remain there?
[22:47] <uomo_bonga> check if you see the files, and if you can create a file (if you want write access)
[22:47] <uomo_bonga> yep that should probably work as long as the ip address of the remote machine doesn't changes
[22:51] <bjrohan> It shouldn't I have it set up in the router
[22:51] <bjrohan> I do have an issue in the other machine, I can't figure out where a USB drive mounts
[22:53] <DarthFrog> bjrohan:  Likely under /media
[22:54] <bjrohan> Na, not there, the floppies and CD-ROMs are
[22:55] <bjrohan> I don't have access to the root dir on that machine via samba, just media, and then my user directory. On that machine I can't find it either, using xfce on that one
[22:58] <uomo_bonga> check if it's mounted, write "mount" on a shell, if it's mounted you should see it listed
[23:06] <bjrohan> I rebooted that machine and it can now find it. Thank you for all your help!
[23:07] <uomo_bonga> :)
[23:09] <bjrohan> On a similar note, what is the best program in Kubuntu for backups to a drive on another computer?
[23:09] <bjrohan> Just looking to backup my home directory
[23:09] <Belial`> backintime-kde
[23:10] <bjrohan> ok
[23:10] <jessie> I love back in time.
[23:11] <jessie> My hourly backup just finished.
[23:11] <uomo_bonga> sounds like worth trying
[23:12] <jessie> It's similar to time machine, but a little more involved.
[23:12] <jessie> And by involved I mean configurable.
[23:12] <bjrohan> While on my laptop, and accessing the USB drive on my other machine, I can create folders, I can't seem to delete them, it says can't access trash
[23:26] <Belial`> there's one issue i have with backintime, and i think it's more or less with rsync..
[23:26] <Belial`> certain files won't copy over.
[23:26] <Belial`> is that because of the filesystem i'm using for my external?
[23:27] <sithlord48> what is the filesystem?
[23:27] <Belial`> fat32
[23:27] <Belial`> i forget the actual files that i had issues with. certain img files, certain video files.
[23:28] <sithlord48> then quite possibly . you can't store some characters in fat32 that you can in ext4
[23:28] <Belial`> ok
[23:28] <Belial`> i'll try formatting it to ext4
[23:29] <sithlord48> if you are only using it for back up you should also disable the reserve space on the drive
[23:29] <Belial`> ok
[23:29] <sithlord48> you can use the command "tune2fs -m 0 <device> . by default when you make an ext partition it will reserve 5% for roots use. if you are not booting from the drive then you don't need to reserve this space.
[23:31] <Belial`> thanks, sithlord48
[23:31] <sithlord48> your most welcome Belial`
