zacariasAfter an upgrade, I lost my "jumping icon" when launching an app. It was replaced by a "flashing icon". Any ideas?01:32
Nine_9hey guys, do you know a simple tool (preferably command line only) that can store network data in a file, some kind of advanced network monitor or something?01:49

DragnslcrNine_9- try searching for command line programs that use libpcap02:48
Nine_9Dragnslcr: ok. thanks :)02:48
DragnslcrFor a GUI program, you'd probably want wireshark02:50

capitaninsaneohI added by accident apache/mysql/PHP with tasksel and then removed them but now I see Mysqld is still on my machine.  I see it when I do a ps-ef but I can't seem to get rid of it with chkconfigHow do I get rid of it?16:01
ikoniacapitaninsaneoh: if you reboot, it will be gone16:03
ikoniacapitaninsaneoh: it's just running in memory16:03
ikoniayou've removed the package.16:03
Pici(also (k)ubuntu doesn't use chkconfig)16:03
capitaninsaneohikonia, I did and it is still there16:06
capitaninsaneohPici,  what do I use then to remove the upstart items?16:06
=== Guest59720 is now known as Mamarok
ikoniacapitaninsaneoh: did you remove the mysql-server packge16:08
ikoniacapitaninsaneoh: you may have just removed the client16:08
capitaninsaneohikonia, Package mysql-server is not installed, so not removed16:09
ikoniacapitaninsaneoh: please do a "sudo dpkg -l | grep mysql"16:10
genii-aroundProbably it installed something like mysql-server-X.X    where X is some version16:11
capitaninsaneohikonia, http://paste.kde.org/567590/16:12
ikoniacapitaninsaneoh: lots of mysql there16:13
capitaninsaneohhow do I disable it from running on my machine16:14
ikoniayou wanted to remove them16:14
ikoniaif you don't need them - remove them16:14
capitaninsaneohikonia, last time I did that it hozed my KDE16:14
ikoniano it didn't16:15
ikoniaremoving mysql server does not break kde16:16
capitaninsaneohyes it removed the kde desktop and I had to readd it16:16
ikoniano it doesn't16:17
capitaninsaneohall I removed was AMP with tasksel16:17
ikoniakde desktop does not depend on mysql serer16:17
ikoniaserver16:17
bazhangkubuntu-desktop?16:17
capitaninsaneohyes16:17
bazhangthat is a metapackage, breaks nothing16:17
capitaninsaneohhad to CTRL ALT F1 and get it again16:17
bazhangcompletely unnecessary unless you are upgrading versions16:17
ikoniabazhang: correct16:18
bazhangcapitaninsaneoh, it does not break a thing16:18
bazhang!metapackage | capitaninsaneoh16:18
ubottucapitaninsaneoh: A meta-package is a package that simply depends upon other packages and brings them in. It's not a real package, but a very useful package that can drag in other package versions.16:18

capitaninsaneohThe following packages will be REMOVED:16:19
capitaninsaneohsorry16:20
ikonianot a problem16:20
ikoniajust dump it in a pastebin if it's long16:20
bazhangcapitaninsaneoh, metapackages are nothing to fret about16:20
capitaninsaneohit hozed my desktop by removing it16:22
ikoniacapitaninsaneoh: what package16:23
capitaninsaneohikonia, mysql-server-core-5.516:23
capitaninsaneohsee above - it want to remove ALL of that UNRELATED stuff16:23
ikoniacapitaninsaneoh: I can't ee anything above as you where muted for flooding the channel16:24
capitaninsaneohikonia, http://paste.ubuntu.com/1275169/16:25
capitaninsaneohikonia, Sorry bout that there it is in pastebin16:25
ikoniacapitaninsaneoh: got it16:26
ikoniacapitaninsaneoh: can you please run "apt-cache depend update-manager-kde"16:26
ikoniacapitaninsaneoh: put it in a pastebin please.16:26

ubottuThePunisher: No warez here! This is not a file sharing channel (or network); read the channel topic. If you're looking for information about me, type « /msg ubottu !bot ». If you're looking for a channel, see « /msg ubottu !alis ».16:29
ikoniacapitaninsaneoh: ok, so as you can see, nothing there depends on mysql-server-core16:29
ikoniacapitaninsaneoh: so you have an additional package that may/maynot depend on mysql-core16:29
ikoniacapitaninsaneoh: check each package to see which one depends on mysql16:29
Torchakonadi would be the obvious guess, right?16:29
ikoniaTorch: it would be a good guess16:30
Torchon which plasma unfortunately depends, so uninstalling akonadi is not an option16:31
ikoniawell, lets find out which one it is16:31
ikoniaI'd be very dissapointed if you need a mysql server to run a desktop16:31
capitaninsaneohall  30 some odd packages?  Can't I just disable Mysqld?16:31
ikoniamysqld should not be running after a reboot16:32
ikoniait's imporant to put in the leg work16:32
capitaninsaneohmysql     1083     1  0 10:35 ?        00:00:02 /usr/sbin/mysqld16:32
capitaninsaneohIs there something like chkconfig for upstart?16:33
ikoniano, it works different, it depends on config files sadly16:34
capitaninsaneohikonia, Is there a gui for it yet?16:34
ikoniano16:34
capitaninsaneoh=(16:35
capitaninsaneohDamn it why won't mysql die!16:35
capitaninsaneohWell, just on my machine.. =)16:36
ikoniawhy won't it die ?16:36
ikoniahave you just tried stopping it or killing it ?16:36
Torchakonadi needs a backend. mysql is the default. you can disable akonadi and it will stop mysql (iirc), but you cannot uninstall it16:37
ikoniaTorch: did you just check the depends ?16:37
Torchno16:37
=== paolo is now known as faLUCE
Torchthis is just off the top of my head16:37
SIR_Tacomysql is required by akondai-backend-sql for storing indexed file/messaging/meta-data/etc.16:37
ikoniais akondai-backend-sql a requirement of the desktop ?16:38
Torchan akonadi backend is a requirement of akonadi server16:38
Torchand akonadi server is a requirement of plasma 8for the calendar widget)16:38
ikoniabut is akondai-backend-sql required or is it an optional choice16:39
Torchwhy not check yourself? ;-)16:39
SIR_Tacoyou can change the backend to sqlite, or postresql...16:39
SIR_Tacounder System Settings -> Personal Information is all the resources that akonadi uses and you can alter them to your liking, or remove them. System Settings -> Desktop Search contains all the settings for Neopmuk (which I believe also uses an sql backend) and you can disable it entirely if you don't wish to index your users files16:43
ikoniaTorch: because I don't have a kde system, or I would have done16:43
ikoniaand this isn't my problem and to be honest, I'm no longer interested16:44
BluesKajakonadi and nepomuk are fine for on the job installs , home users probly don't have much use for either one , unless they work from home16:45
Torcheven home users like to read mail sometimes16:46
Torchand akonadi is the technical solution the kdepim devs chose and it's been discussed to death ;-)16:47
BluesKajyeah Torch that's why i use thunderbird , i don't need a clunky mailserver for mysetup16:48
BluesKajI used to like kmail till they attached that ball and chain to it16:49
SIR_TacoBluesKaj: Kmail makes my head hurt... I'm a Thunderird user as well16:50
BluesKajSIR_Taco, it's not a really amtter of preference for me , kmail/kontacy just don't work on my system for more than few days then the segfaults start and they become worse and worse over time16:51
BluesKajand the bugreports are 50 duplicates deep on it16:52
BluesKajif not more16:53
SIR_Tacohaven't had it segfault on me (well not since I tested kmail 2 for the sake of testing and helping out)... but I find it trys to do too much, and I just want to read my mail :)16:53
BluesKajthunderbird works well and serves  mail from 3 different servers , my ISP email and 2 webmails16:54
BluesKajserves is probly not technically correct , but you get the gist16:56
SIR_Tacoyep16:56
Nine_9hey guys, is there a plugin or something to easily toggle speed limiter in ktorrent, like the turtle button in transmision?17:02
Nine_9it's annoying to have to type the upload and download limits every time17:03
Nine_9I'd like a one-clicker17:03
Nine_9:)17:03
lordievaderNine_9: You know you can simply use transmission under kde/kubuntu?17:06
Nine_9lordievader: i know, but i'd like to use ktorrent :). It has more options and supports utorrent's microTP, maybe deluge is an alternative17:07
Nine_9transmission is very basic17:07
lordievaderNine_9: Isn't there some global setting in the preferences menu?17:07
capitaninsaneohikonia, i fixed it17:08
Nine_9lordievader: there are, but i'd like a way to configure the speed limit and quickly swittch it on/off17:08
lordievaderNine_9: I see, hmm, I'm sorry I have to say that nothing springs to mind.17:09
Nine_9lordievader: ok, thanks.17:09
