[00:02] Belial`: system settings/configure desktop > application appearance > gtk settings [00:03] yeah, that's where gtk-configuration is. [00:03] but is there a way to set custom icons that i downloaded? so far i haven't been able to. [00:03] the drop down list doesn't list all the icon sets. [00:04] but, I'll give it another shot. [00:04] right, I've reconfigured kdm as default dm, I'm now going to stop lightDM and have another go. [00:04] back in a tick [00:04] maybe i need to put icons in /usr/share/icons for it to see them? [00:07] Belial`: you would be better off 'installing' the icon sets thru the 'install' process, then look for them [00:08] I don't know what you did,or how, but KDM is working now,and so is VLC, gimp, usw. Thank you, Snowhog and almoxarife :D [00:08] No more lightDM to content with :P [00:08] Beats the hell out of me why they made it into the default [00:08] almoxarife, well i have the kfaenza icon set installed through settings, but that's not showing in the drop down menu in gtk-configurator. i wasn't expecting it to though. i think i may have found the answer. it requires editing the gtk rc file. [00:08] i'll give that a shot. [00:09] BarkingFish: you just need to re-install it :) [00:10] Belial`: not sure, i installed qtcurve for gtk and kde, nice uniform icon set that looks good on both, no more worries [00:10] well I'm glad I did. What possessed us to use a non KDE app as the dm for KDE? Surely KDM is and *should be* the default for KDE. [00:11] almoxarife, yeah, i was thinking about checking into that too. it's more or less the reason why i don't use firefox. oxygen kde for firefox breaks every time firefox updates, so i've been sticking with rekonq for now. [00:13] BarkingFish: there is a good reason to use lightdm, its centers on the screen, great if your nvidia card overscans on a big plasma screen, you still get to see the dm :) , one good use for lightdm [00:13] BarkingFish: See http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=MTE2NTg [01:00] what happened to quanta plus? it's not in the repositories?

[03:23] Hi [03:24] Last time i was here, people suggested me to use "dont remember the name" instead of muon software center [03:26] alex20032: what is synaptic ? [03:27] * OerHeks was thinkin about synaptic too [03:27] no it was not synaptic [03:27] I alway use synaptic [03:27] Was something like easy to use software center like ubuntu [03:28] You know, normally, we use ubuntu software center in combo with synaptic... [03:28] Just dont remember what people suggested me to use in combo with synaptic [03:28] well, there's package-kit/apper, but I wouldn't recommend it [03:28] yes, apper [03:28] this name remember me something [03:28] apt-get? [03:29] i am not talking about console command [03:29] Why you wouldnt recommend apper? [03:30] I am looking for something better than muon software center [03:30] same reason I wouldn't recommend muon [03:30] Muon software center dont have thing well sorted(category), top rated, popular download... I am looking for something like ubuntu software center made for kde [03:32] But i dont want to install ubuntu software center, or it will install lot of dependance file [03:32] they both broke my system, a bit more often then I'd like. did so and told me everything was fine or gave me obscure error messages, and both don't provide the dpkg output, that would have alerted me to errors properly regardless of the gui's poor understanding of what's going on [03:33] Normally, I use synaptic, but when i what to see, whats hot these time, whats cool... see picture, some info, and rating, popular program... then install with synaptic [03:34] What about Linux Mint KDE, does it use Muon software center? [03:38] Ok, mint look like to use a software center i will like more [03:38] I don't keep up with all ubuntu forks. [03:38] But i never understood what is the difference with mint and ubuntu... [03:39] *Except different desktop and software manager [03:40] Well, except the main version instead of unity use Mate or cinamon, other version are, at my eye, ubuntu(Kubuntu->Linux mint KDE, Xubuntu->Linux mint XFCE....) with a different theme and software manager [03:40] I can see what else is different [03:42] Currently, there is 2 thing i didnt like with kubuntu: Last time i used it, KDE was unstable each time i was copying file(12.04) and also, the software manager. I guess with the new version of KDE, it should be resolved, but I still have a problem with the software manager [03:49] i dunno... i just installed KDE and it's terrible so far [03:49] the konsole crashed twice [03:49] and so did the web browser and all i did was load www.google.com [03:51] johnjacobjingerh: backtrace ?

[13:54] what a disastrous update [13:55] Nine_9: mm [13:55] Nine_9: so it's not a user related problem [13:55] but a system problem [13:56] Peace-: ya same problem, after i ran the command the following appeared before asking for my password " [1] 2773" [13:58] is there a way to revert back some packages to the ones in usb [13:58] ? [13:58] mm revert back ? [13:58] the muon manager has a wizard to add repo from cdrom, is there a way to add from usb drive? [13:59] Peace-: back to 12.04? [14:00] or a way to revert the system to the state it was before the latest update? [14:00] Nine_9, sudo ifconfig eth0 up [14:00] BluesKaj: i`ve tried that already. [14:00] natman: dmesg | grep -i "mounted filesystem with ordered data mode. Opts: (null)" [14:00] Nine_9, you mentioned a usb , usb what ? [14:01] BluesKaj: usb drive [14:02] Peace-: output was http://paste.ubuntu.com/1297552/ [14:02] natman: not sure but read this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2008576 [14:02] man, the worst thing is when network doesn`t work on linux. [14:03] Nine_9: iwconfig [14:04] Nine_9, ok , sudo dhclient eth0 [14:04] Peace-: isn`t that for wireless? [14:04] Nine_9: iwconfig | pastebinit [14:04] Nine_9: do it [14:04] yes it wifi [14:04] my network is wired [14:04] Nine_9: do it [14:04] Peace-: okay, sounds complicated, will read it and try later [14:05] Nine_9: or fix by yourself then [14:05] dude i have to go no time to answer [14:05] Nine_9, ok try , sudo dhclient eth0 , this should work [14:05] Peace-: ok thanks. [14:06] BluesKaj: lemme try. [14:06] Peace-, no need to be rude [14:06] ... [14:06] ok bye [14:07] iwconfig just gives no wirelkess extensions on a wired connection [14:08] BluesKaj: if eth0 is recognized shoul dbe in the list [14:08] if not you have not in the list [14:09] ifconfig is what he needs [14:10] try iwconfig [14:10] you will se your eth [14:10] Hi everyone, I'm trying to use a s/mime cert in kmail but I'm getting a red cross when I select it in the identity settings. Can anyone help? [14:10] I see your ppoint Peace- , you could have explained that instead of the other thing you said [14:10] like i said before no time [14:10] bye :P [14:11] Peace-, still no reason to be rude [14:14] here are the returns of the commands: http://paste.kde.org/577682/ [14:21] here is the dpkg log> http://paste.kde.org/577694/ [14:22] I`m thinking about reinstalling the entire system. [14:23] the problem is... I`ll have to keep using an outdated version of it, because there`s no way to know when shit will happen, and if it happens, there`s no easy way to revert that. [14:23] Nine_9, your ethernet connection isn't even recognized , run lspci and look for something like this , 00:07.0 Bridge: NVIDIA Corporation MCP61 Ethernet (rev a2) [14:24] BluesKaj: isn`t it easier to reinstall the entire thing? Because there are more things that doesn`t work. If it were only the ethernet, but the entire system is broken. [14:25] I dunno why i had this dumb idea to update something that was working perfectly well. [14:26] I blame the update manager though. [14:26] Nine_9, that's your call , but if we knew the kernel module/driver your NIC needs then the networking problem should be eassily fixed . If this is an older pc I suggest the ' alternate install ' [14:27] if a clean install is what you intend [14:28] BluesKaj: wait... I can run that command from the live system right? [14:28] Nine_9, yes [14:29] have you updated upgraded the system since the install ? [14:29] kubuntu@kubuntu:~$ lspci | grep Ethernet 02:00.0 Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications Inc. AR8151 v1.0 Gigabit Ethernet (rev c0) [14:29] BluesKaj: nope, just some packages. [14:30] i`ve installed it this month [14:30] sorry, upgrade != update. so nope [14:31] yeah kind of difficult without an internet connection [14:33] hello everyone [14:34] i have found a bug in 12.10 but no idea how to search for it or how to report it === david is now known as Guest51506 [14:36] !bug [14:36] If you find a bug in Ubuntu or any of its derivatives, please file a bug using the command « ubuntu-bug » - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs for other ways to report bugs. [14:36] Nine_9, try loading the atheros module : sudo modprobe atl1e , thiis might do the trick [14:37] BluesKaj: ok. however, i wonder why there are so many "half-installed" packages in dpkg log [14:37] when i unplug/plug power supply or the battery is fully charged, i found all the mounted partition (/home, /windows,/whatever) mounted but not accessible [14:37] and not unmountable either (busy) [14:37] only way to solve is rebooting [14:37] how can i "name" this bug [14:37] anyway, lemme try that [14:42] BluesKaj: yeah! It works! Thank you man! [14:42] cool , Nine_9 :) [14:43] now you can run your updates and upgrades , Nine_9 [14:43] BluesKaj: yeah, and the module was atl1c in fact [14:43] atl1e didn't work [14:44] how did you dind the correct module ? [14:44] find [14:44] BluesKaj: well. i was going to try all atheros modules (atlXXX) the second one i've tried after atl1e was atl1c and it worked :) heh [14:45] ok good [14:46] ath5k or ath9k don't work? [14:46] i'm gonna disable all the non official repos and also the backports one and update/downdate everything [14:46] SIR_Taco_: nope [14:46] weird [14:46] mine is atheros 8151 [14:46] ah [14:46] ar8151 [14:52] is there a program or something that allows you to "restore" the system to a previous state? [14:52] It would be useful imho. So I could create a backup of the working system before updating [14:53] Nine_9, have you run the updates and upgrades to finish the half installed packages [14:53] BluesKaj: running right now [14:53] ok [14:54] you know, a kind of system backup helper, but for the system itself, disconsidering /home [14:54] you'll probly find your setup will work fully afterwards, 12.10 is pretty stable === lskaglsd is now known as mqymrtm [14:56] BluesKaj: but I'm using the lts version (12.04) should i upgrade the entire thing to 12.10? [14:56] LTS [14:56] i was planning to keep using the LTS [14:57] until the next LTS. I wasn't planning to use these rapid release versions [14:58] but if it's more stable it's not a bad idea to upgrade i think. [14:58] Nine_9, it has a longer support period , and if you require that for work or home office etc then yes it is a good idea to stay on 12.04LTS [14:58] BluesKaj: ok. === luigi is now known as Guest54710 [15:14] hi everybody [15:15] === Fifo is now known as Fifoxtasy [15:16] HI [15:17] hi === Fifo is now known as Fifoxtasy === Fifoxtasy is now known as Fifo === sem__ is now known as Peace- [15:20] hi [15:26] hi === alexandra_ is now known as Bubblegum [15:30] Could someone please help me out. I just upgraded to Kubuntu 12.10 and in muon and in the software center searching for packages only gives very limited results. i couldn't find the package for synaptic or mdam for example. had to apt-get them. synaptic's quick search is the same, the only thing that works is the search button in synaptic. anything else won't display the packages i search for [15:30] ggggguest apt-cache search stuff [15:31] ggggguest: just do an alias for that [15:32] isn't it possible to search for the packages with a graphical client like muon anymore in 12.10? it used to work fine in 12.04. i'm on a fresh install by the way. [15:32] ggggguest: i guess you can but idon't use it btw [15:33] i find konsole faster === rafa is now known as Guest78778 === Guest78778 is now known as uomo_bonga [15:34] ggggguest: i find synaptic btw in muon ... http://wstaw.org/m/2012/10/22/plasma-desktopl23480.png [15:34] Peace: i see. i prefer browsing through the packages with muon or synaptic [15:36] okay, it took some decades, but now it's installed and i'm going to restart to see if it works [15:36] * Nine_9 cross fingers [15:36] i have mount problems since 12.10 [15:36] Peace: thanks for checking it out on your machine! looks like it's working perfectly for you. [15:39] yay! it works! [15:39] BluesKaj: thank you very much! You're really an awesome kubuntu guru :D [15:40] it was just a matter of running "apt-get install -f" [15:40] as superuser o'course [15:40] after disabling those repos also [15:40] no I'm not a guru , just a guy who's glad to see ppl using open source :) [15:41] a humble guru :D [15:41] yeah , sometimes the dependencies get broken and a quick re-upgrade is in order [15:43] Peace: really strange [15:43] Peace: i can only see the packages: Muon and the xserver driver for synaptics === Fifo is now known as Fifoxtasy === Fifoxtasy is now known as Fifo [15:55] hi [15:57] Peace: http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/827/snapshot1sd.jpg/ that what it looks like here [15:59] What's the irc client in Peace's screenshot? [16:02] webchat.freenode.net [16:03] webirc by freenode because my quassel kept crashing [16:03] oh noes, web-based irc client! :B [16:04] Nine_9: horrible! [16:04] but i was talkin bout the client here: http://wstaw.org/m/2012/10/22/plasma-desktopl23480.png [16:04] quassel works very well here [16:04] but i think i finally fixed quassel now (me=gggggeust) [16:05] oh i thought you ment my screenshot [16:06] i still haven't figured out why i can't find my packages [16:07] i can find synaptic here, but i agree it's hard to find some packages in muon [16:08] for example, nm-appled [16:08] i don't get why i can't find it... [16:08] can't find gnome-disk-utility either [16:09] when i type gnome-disk the first item that appears is gnome-disk-utility [16:12] not here. not in synaptic. not in muon. not in software center [16:12] =/ [16:13] that's why i almost always use apt-get and tab-completion :) [16:14] a good search tool would be useful though, sometimes you forget the packages names [16:14] but i find it hard to find software that i don't know the name of that way [16:14] exactly what i meant [16:15] i'll try a restart [16:15] last time i checked the search in synaptic (not the quick filtering one) were pretty good === shumski is now known as shumski_away [16:29] #games [16:29] wrong channel [16:32] no luck [16:33] refreshed packages a gazillion times.. [16:34] no clue how to make this work. repo settings look good [16:34] <_jam> Fifo: i just joined, you having issues upgrading? [16:35] i did a fresh install of 12.10; now i can't see most of the packages when serching for them in muon, software center and synaptic [16:36] <_jam> n/m then. good luck [16:36] for example i couldn't find synaptic in muon - had to install via commandline [16:36] n/m? [16:37] _jam: n/m? [16:40] Fifo, n/m = short for never mind. === AlexZion is now known as 5JTAAGYA1 === 5JTAAGYA1 is now known as AlexZion === szal_ is now known as szal [17:11] OerHeks thanks [17:11] Fifo: synaptic search tool isn't working properly also? [17:11] not the quick filter thing [17:11] the quicksearch is not working [17:11] the search is [17:12] sorry it's called quick filter [17:13] i still couldn't figure out what's wrong [17:13] maybe i'll do another fresh install of kubuntu and hope it wont't be there any more [17:14] maybe it's a cache problem dunno if it makes sense because i think every package manager has its own independent search engine [17:14] try to clean apt cache [17:19] you're a genius!! [17:20] it's working again! thank you so much Nine_9 [17:20] :D [17:20] nope, i'm not a genius. I'm glad it worked :) === kubuntu_ is now known as Shack [18:06] After the upgrade, my email isn't getting delivered to /var/mail/ any more. Instead, I see the following in my logs: /usr/lib/dovecot/deliver -c /etc/dovecot/conf.d/01-mail-stack-delivery.conf -m "${EXTENSION}" [18:06] How do I get my email? [18:14] ptomblin: Do you use dovecot on Kubuntu o_O? [18:15] Yes, but up until I upgraded, it was great because it didn't mess with the way I stored email (so local users could use mutt and remote users could use imap) [18:15] but now it's hiding my email somewhere else, and even my imap users can't find it. [18:16] Hmm.. Have you checked package changelog? [18:16] Maybe there is some info about it :) [18:16] Than, check this config files. [18:16] s/files/file/g [18:16] Where would I find that? I'm used to Debian, where they don't change the entire way the package works without some sort of option to keep the old config. === nikki is now known as Guest4652 [18:18] They do, sometimes. [18:19] Check /etc/dovecot/conf.d/01-mail-stack-delivery.conf [18:20] I can't find the option called "totally_fuck_up_your_users_email" [18:23] ptomblin, no cursing here [18:23] !language > ptomblin [18:23] ptomblin, please see my private message [18:24] ptomblin: and apt-get changelog foobar will get you the changelog for foobar [18:27] The changelog doesn't mention "move people's email from mbox to maildir, but don't tell imap about the change so it's still looking in the mbox" [18:30] This is funny :) [18:34] It appears this package "mail-stack-delivery" make some really annoying changes to my postfix configuration as well, including stripping out some of my spam protections. [18:34] Way to go, Kubuntu. [18:35] ptomblin: not Kubuntu's fault really [18:36] blame dovecot packaging, Kubuntu has nothing to do with dovecot [18:38] I think I'm going back to Debian - they know how to do an upgrade without breaking everything. [18:40] Brave words. [18:49] ptomblin: FYI I do not think Kubuntu Developers are responsible for any changes to that package. It would be far more productive to report a bug against that package (if you are sure that a change in that package broke the whole thing) to let people know about possible problems instead of implying that we are incompetent [18:50] Right now, my priority is to get email working again for my users. I'll consider a bug report when I have things working like they did before the upgrade. [18:55] ptomblin: You might as well try asking in #ubuntu-devel === Vito_away is now known as Vito === Vito is now known as Educanda === Educanda is now known as Vito [20:46] hi [20:46] I use kubuntu, with all the effects disabled etc [20:47] do you think an AMD card that I want to buy will work? I will be connecting 3 monitors to it [21:07] hai .. how can I completely disable a piece of hardware? the digital audio on my graphics card keeps taking over from the mobo audio ... i won't be using the video card's audio any time in the forseeable future, so I want it gone === max___ is now known as maxstyvason [21:12] what happened to all the emulators in the repositories? [21:12] am I the only one who noticed them missing? [21:23] hi. when i'm trying to install something, i get many errors.. http://pastebin.com/8Li15u4K [21:24] looks like the downlaoded package is in shambles [21:25] try another repository [21:46] haha in mario all stars 9-4 it has japanese text in the english version [21:47] wew a2 [21:47] whats the furthest anyone has ever made it in this game [22:06] artao: you can disable it in pulseaudio, using (I think) pavucontrol. === Vito is now known as Vito_away [22:31] i'll try that DarthFrog [22:44] well. that seems to have disabled it, for now. [22:44] now to see if it persists [22:45] are there any xorg-edgers users here? [22:45] xorg-edgers? [22:46] if you don't know what it is, you're not using it [22:47] that appears to have worked DarthFrog .. that which previously triggered the audio takover no longer does [22:47] i suppoe i should logout-in to save those settings [22:48] ah - so must mean you dont have time to explain... if ya talked about it more the channel would have more opportunity to help you. [22:48] jmichaelx, ^^^ [22:50] jmichaelx, I always try to chat about issues, even when I know nothing about them... eventually the channel starts then we all learn something... thats just me tho - best of luck to you ::) [22:51] dougl: many thanks for your helpful attitude, but i really only wanted to know whether anyone else was using that PPA. [22:52] jmichaelx, cheers... [22:53] dougl: the bigger issue i am working on, is trying to get nvidia + vdpau working. it winds up being broken a good deal of the time. [22:54] jmichaelx, I thot vdpau was out long enough that it would be working without a hitch - sorry to hear about the trouble... [22:55] vdpau has not worked for me (on three machines, with three different nvidia cards) at release, for the last three kubuntu releases [22:55] dougl: no, it's broken much of the time [22:56] I was looking forward to vdpau when I was interested in media center since then have not tried to keep up or had any interest... [22:56] that sucks [22:56] dougl: i think it mostly sucks that proprietary drivers are involved [22:57] jmichaelx, that always seems to be at the root of the issue... all comes back to that. [22:57] yep. it sure does [22:58] are the opensource drivers ever gonna support vdpau? [22:58] i seriously doubt it, but who knows. i think that would depend a lot on whether or not nvidia would ever open up more of their specs [23:00] jmichaelx, yeah - not likely... if they are gonna be so closed minded maybe they should make a Nvidia Linux - err maybe not. [23:01] dougl: i'm surprised that you've never heard of the xorg-edgers PPA. it provides a newer xorg and drivers (both free and closed) than what are found in the repos... but it is also a 'use at your own risk' kind of a deal. for me, their packages *usually* work MUCH better that the packages provided by ubuntu [23:01] just do a better job on the drivers is better spent. [23:02] jmichaelx, I am stock out of the box these days... work is very time consuming - I want to be able to get up an running in less that 4 hours if need be... [23:03] using both ubuntu's repos, and the exorg-edgers PPA, i find that i will get VDPAU working, but then it will break again at the next upgrade. [23:03] jmichaelx, doh! damn upgrades. [23:03] dougl: yea, but playing high def does not work out of the box on much of anything i have... without VDPAU [23:05] jmichaelx, when I got the new job I bought appletv for entertainment... computers are just for youtube and facebook and sound and printer server... [23:05] HD does not work or gives your cpu a hernia? [23:05] dougl: i understand what you're saying, but it really is not supposed to be that way [23:06] ah - re read = better understanding [23:06] dougl: it does not work. audio & video wind up wau out of sync... CPU usage goes very high... it's ridiculous [23:06] right [23:06] way* [23:07] well. ... logging out crashed .. i gotta remember to unplug my dictaphone and camera before doing that .. but the disabled hdmi audio remained disabled, and the mobo audio is still in charge ... so YAY [23:07] good video performance in linux is still a very problematic thing === Dreadtower is now known as Breadflour [23:08] jmichaelx, not sure what to say here regarding the channel chiming in on our chat... [23:08] everyone is sleeping today. [23:09] supper time here - gotta run. [23:10] jmichaelx, you take care and save some hair to pull out next upgrade... seriously - good luck [23:10] dougl: ok, bon appetit! === david is now known as Guest71575 [23:12] what's bad, is that i had vdpau working, using xorg-ppa packages. at that point, i should have commented out that PPA in sources.list.... but instead, i let it upgrade again... now VDPAU is broken [23:15] the words torvalds had for nvidia a few months back were none too strong [23:15] does anyone know where to obtain libjpeg.so.8 please? [23:16] !find libjpeg.so.8 [23:16] File libjpeg.so.8 found in libjpeg-turbo8 [23:18] and just what package would that be? [23:18] isaac: libjpeg-turbo8 is the package name [23:18] Okie. Thanks. [23:18] you should have it already though [23:19] it's part of the default install [23:19] not if U're still running 10.x LTS [23:19] But I may backup / and upgrade this weekend. [23:20] I'm not sure I'm going to like 12.x [23:20] I don't see libjpeg-turbo8 in Lucid, so I don't think it's available [23:20] it is available in 11.x LTS apparently [23:21] yes, 11.04 [23:21] but not 10.04 [23:21] 10.x getting old, I have to upgrade [23:22] you have until next April to upgrade from 10.04 (Lucid), and you can upgrade straight to 12.04 (Precise) from it [23:22] managed to get this far with it though :-) [23:22] I won't like 12.x [23:22] why not? [23:22] What happens in april, 10.x repositories evaporate? [23:23] no, updates for the desktop components will end [23:23] server support continues until 2015 [23:23] ...and probably some repo's [23:23] incentive to upgrade [23:24] no, the repos will remain until the server support ends [23:24] but they are still accessible, just from a different server [23:25] see http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ it goes right back until 4.10 === viv`d is now known as vivid === Guest71575 is now known as thekleine === dhuerlimann is now known as thekleine [23:58] :-) have not been here in a while. hello
