yofelit's not fixed in the ppa either00:00
yofelor....00:00
yofelnope, it's not00:01
vbgunzwould reinstalling kate maybe fix it?00:01
vbgunzI can try it I suppose00:01
yofelnot really, unless you pull kate from raring00:01
yofelit's a patch that was dropped by accident when it was repackaged00:02
vbgunzI can confirm, reinstalling kate doesn't work00:02
xixoris installing the ia32-libs package, which installs a suite of i386 libraries... going to cause any compatibility/dependency issues?00:02
vbgunzI was reading up on it, hoping a work around would pop up, I saw it's fixed in what I thought was 4.9.3 but its not00:03
yofelxixor: there shouldn't, and I don't know of any in quantal. If there are it would be a bug00:03

bjrohanWhat is the best way to get kubunto to zoom in where my mouse is? I want to record my desktop, and when discussing certain features, be able to zoom in on them01:44
=== deadc0de_ is now known as OxDeadC0de
bjrohanI am having issues with the KWIN zoom in / out. Any time I ener the Meta Key and another key, the run command box appears at the top of my screen. How can I disable this? In settings desktop effects, zoom Meta+= is default zoom in Meta+- is default zoom out, but again all I get is the run command bar02:08
DarthFrogOdd.  I just get the + and - glyphs in this text entry box, no ALT effect at all.  ALT-F2 brings up krunner.02:09
bjrohanhmm02:22
xixorsup02:22
bjrohanTrying to get desktop zoom to work02:24
bjrohananytime I hit Meta+ and key it opens up the Run Command box at the top of my screen02:25
bjrohanperhaps it isn't called Run Command, but if I right clcik on desktop and select Run Command that is the box that appears02:25
xixorI hate linux.  is meta=alt?  or is meta=windowsKey?02:25
bjrohanWindowsKey02:26
xixorlol02:26
bjrohanI can't find where to set the shortcut key for the run command box02:26
xixoralt+f2 is default02:26
Tygartbjrohan: try using it with your browser or open a PDF or word doc02:27
bjrohanyep. alt+f2 and Meta any key give same result :-(02:27
bjrohanTygart: In browser, nothing happens02:28
bjrohanAnd that is what I need to zoom in on with while recording my desktop02:28
bjrohanMaybe it doesn't work at all I tried reassigning it to ctrl+0, and nothing happens02:34
Tygartbjrohan: are you using the +&- on thats by the 10key or the ones above the letters02:35
bjrohanOnes above letters, I am on a laptop02:35
Tygartok02:35
bjrohanIt seems none of my desktop effects are working :-(02:39

meoblast001hi03:38
meoblast001i'm having a bit of a problem with printers (you know, those things we always have when we deal with printers... problems)03:38
meoblast001this one's a little interesting and i've actually damaged the printer in frustration trying to get the thing to stop printing03:39
xixorI heard a story once, from a wandering bard, who claimed to have heard of someone who installed a printer without problems once03:39
meoblast001it's a Lexmark e250d, and i set it up as a generic printer as PLC 6/PLC XL Foomatic/pxlcolor, the default03:40
meoblast001this has been extremely hit or miss03:40
meoblast001sometimes i'll print something, and it will come out perfect03:40
meoblast001other times, with the same document, it appears the printer misinterprets the stream to it and it prints out binary as if it was plain text03:41
meoblast001let's just say this household now has a lot of scrap paper with smiley faces, umlauts, and question marks03:41
meoblast001any ideas of what i can do?03:41
meoblast001i tried postscript configuration but the printer does not like that03:42
meoblast001does not respond at all, just removes the job from the queue03:42
meoblast001oh great, now it's angry at me03:44
OerHeksmeoblast001, this old 2009 tutorial should still be valid >>> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=115836703:45
meoblast001followed that03:45
meoblast001the PPD file does not appear to work03:45
meoblast001my printer should not even have an IP address anyways03:45
OerHeksIs it connected with USB ?03:46
meoblast001yes03:46
OerHeksThen choose local printer, etc03:46
meoblast001in the CUPS admin or in the KDE printer configuration?03:46
OerHeksyou can choose, localhost:631 is the old way03:47
meoblast001the name of the Lexmark printer appears03:47
meoblast001i select that and hit forward03:47
meoblast001if i select lexmark, mine does not appear on the list03:47
meoblast001so my only option appears to be generic03:47
meoblast001Ubuntu test print works fine on default settings again03:50
OerHeksmeoblast001, check the resolution, some drivers cannot handle 600x600, set it to 300x300 dpi03:51
meoblast001well, the same document can print different each time i send it to the queue03:53
meoblast001it's on 30003:53
meoblast001i guess i could just live with it until it happens again03:53
meoblast001now i'm frustrated at myself for breaking the plastic piece off the back03:56

noaXessis nvidia nouveau driver default for 12.10?06:28
noaXessBluesKaj: and.. got some sleep? ;)06:29
vbgunzanyone know why the nvidia x server settings gui, sometimes launches, sometimes doesn't and no matter what, takes a long time to load?06:32
noaXessvbgunz: you mean on startup.. the nvidia logo hangs some seconds?06:35
noaXessor nvidia-settings program?06:35
vbgunzthe nvidia program from the menu06:35
noaXessmy problem with 12.40, nvidia-updates is, that if desktop effects are enabled, after minutes i can't really work, i need to disable desktop effects..06:36
noaXesson 12.04 with an older nvidia it worked perfect.06:36
vbgunzfor some reason, I click it and it shows launch feedback but it either doesn't launch at all or takes a very long time to show up06:36
noaXessvbgunz: what dirver do you use? nvidia or nouveau? check /etc/X11/xorg.conf06:36
vbgunznvidia driver, the experimental 3.10 as I am an undercover beta tester06:37
noaXessvbgunz: start it from console: nvidia-settings06:37
noaXessthere will be some gtk errors, also in my situation, but maybe you see some more errors..06:37
vbgunzyeah, not sure why I didn't think about it before06:37
noaXessvbgunz: 3.10 is ok for desktop effects?06:38
vbgunzit's ok, the biggest desktop effect game changer in kubuntu is the kde 4.9.2+ dekstop.06:38
noaXessi have official 304.51 (nvidia-updates) but desktop effects after minutes getting slow and maschine is not really usable.. so need to disable effects06:38
DarthFrogvbgunz: I'm running the nvidia 3.10 drivers and just loaded the nvidia settings app from the menu.  Opened in 2 seconds.06:39
noaXessvbgunz: what you mean exactly? you mean problem in 4.9.3?06:39
vbgunzDarthFrog: yeah, the nvidia-settings gui doesn't pop up in 2 seconds. when it does, it will do it in 20 or not at all06:40
vbgunznoaXess: I am not saying KDE is the problem, just saying performance in KDE doesn't go up through the roof until you hit the 4.9.2 series06:41
vbgunzKDE in in 12.04 must have been horrid06:41
noaXessvbgunz: ok..06:41
vbgunzall thats bothering me now is I have no ideas why nvidia-settings takes forever to load up if at all06:42
noaXessvbgunz: i was happy with 12.04 and KDE.. but no in 12.10 and KDE 4.9.3 some issues in effects.. i live them ;) but.. can live for the moment w/o them06:42
vbgunzit's the only program doing that, everything else is super responsive06:42
noaXessvbgunz: was it also with the nvidia 304 version?06:43
vbgunzI never really tested 304 on Kubuntu 12.10, I sort of just made a fresh install and jumped up to 3.10 based on Steam coming to Ubuntu exclusively06:44
vbgunzI wanted to check things out and although everything is pretty much perfect, the nvidia-settings gui is so slow to launch and open, it's terrible06:45
DarthFrogvbgunz:  Coming to Ubuntu initially.  No doubt it'll be available for RPM distros in short order.06:45
DarthFrogvbgunz: You could just open it once and leave it open.06:45
vbgunzDarthFrog: yeah, it should be coming but Ubuntu is no doubt leading in more areas and I used to use it more than a year back. I'm back trying it out again and it's great. Just the nvidia-settings is bugging me out atm, nothing else like it06:46
vbgunzDarthFrog: I have 3 monitors so bouncing between them using the nvidia-settings gui is important, it just sucks to have to wait 20-30 seconds for the app to launch06:47
DarthFrogSo don't close it.06:47
DarthFrogif you're capable of parsing the output, you could try running it under strace and see where the hang-up is occurring.06:48
vbgunzDarthFrog: I don't predict I'll be switching monitors for a little while, I hate having something in the task bar running I know I just don't need atm, I have no real clue why it bothers me but I close apps I am not using if they're present in a way that appears they require usage06:49

markovhusing konsole, the terminal always prompts me for a passphrase to unlock keys where as in ubuntu with gnome, there was a gui popup that handled it and could handle it (and keep unlocked till logout). I've got seahorse installed as well btw. Is there a setting to make seahorse handle key unlocks or a default application that's used on kde?11:56
Jekyllmarkovh: try ksshaskpass12:00
markovhis there anyway of getting seahorse to handle it?12:02

ptomblinIt's settled down now - load average is 0.44.  Now it's ksysguard that's top of "top"16:12
lordievaderptomblin: Then a load of 2 is not a problem, however Nepomuk taking up 100% on a core isn't good.16:14
ptomblinI had just rebooted because the load average was up over 3 for no reason, and postgresql was slow as a dog.  Everything seems better now.16:15
lordievaderptomblin: An i7 should be able to handle at least 4. Or 8 if you count in the virtual cores.16:16

ovidiu-florinmarkovh: This happened to me as well, adn I found that there was a process that appeared there about 5 times, and made the System Tray widget hudge, so I just killed that process (5 times) and it was ok. No ideea waht process was that. It was nothing familiar21:11
vbgunzhmm in syslog, I went back to the second it froze, I know it right down to the second because my systray clock displays seconds and recorded the exact time everything froze. this is what I found, anyone know what's up? http://paste.kde.org/606860/21:11
ovidiu-florinis there a way to colapse all in Kate?21:12

xixorvbgunz: sounds like your hard drive or your ata subsystem is throwing a DRDY ERR.  I don't know what that is21:15
xixorvbgunz: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=14754621:15
xixorvbgunz: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-newbie-8/ata1-01-status-%7B-drdy-err-%7D-896401/21:16

xixorvbgunz: http://superuser.com/questions/121391/sata-drives-or-chipset-throwing-drdy-err-and-icrc-abrt21:16
xixorvbgunz: in that last one, someone says, "DRDY ERR messages actually seems to be reported as a kernel bug in a lot of systems which seems to relate a lot with Ubuntu and to a smaller extent Debian."  and there is some discussion on it21:16
xixorvbgunz: sorry to inundate you with information, but I think doing some google research might be a good option for you at this point, just finding out if this is a known problem, or a known hardware problem, etc21:17
vbgunzxixor: yeah, the info is great, I was googling what I could. if its worth anything, I have kubuntu installed on an external sata disk. a 32bit installation on a 64bit system.21:19
vbgunzhow do I translate 'ata9.00' to something more understandable like /dev/sdx?21:21
xixorvbgunz: I'm not sure how to translate it.  Someone else might know, or might be a good question for #linux ?21:22
xixorvbgunz: afaik, none of those things: 32bit system, eSata disk, should be a problem.  Could it be a faulty cable? intermittent cable? failing hard drive/21:23
xixorvbgunz: you might want to check the smart status of the drive21:23
vbgunzyeah, I'm looking into hdparm now otherwise I'll be on it a minute21:24
xixorvbgunz: er, I mean "both of those things shouldn't be a problem" above21:27
xixorvbgunz: I don't know much about it, but there are different hard drive settings in the bios... ahci, atapi, ata.. I can't remember how many there are, or what the differences are.. but it could be something to look into as well21:28
vbgunzI'm thinking ata9.01: is probably referring to my cdroms, it keeps coming back in google queries. I'm gonna try in #linux21:28
vbgunzxixor: turns out, from #linux, I grepped dmesg for ata9 and found out it is my cdroms21:37
xixorvbgunz: hm.. ok21:38
xixorvbgunz: but still, that error might not be related to your instability21:38
xixorvbgunz: take a look in /var/log/kern.log, message, syslog, and focus in on the time of the crashes to see if there are any other messages21:39
vbgunzkerl.log looks almost exactly the same as sys.log21:40

jedihawkaah, back in xchat in linux.  mmmmm, happiness.23:18
* jedihawk still has no life though.23:19
xixorjedihawk: I've never liked xchat23:31
jedihawkxixor, I love it.23:33
xixorIt's gtk, right?23:35
jedihawkxixor: do you know how to get dolphin to not leave .directory files all over the place?23:35
xixorjedihawk: no idea.  Are  you showing dot files?  hit alt . to hide them in dolphin23:35
jedihawkxixor: no, usually I don't have hidden files shown.  But they show up in other programs, and clog up my jungledisk and dropbox shares.  Very annoying.23:36
xixorah, I think if you disable storing view preferences for every folder, it won't add them23:37
jedihawkxixor: good idea, thx.23:37
xixorSettings->Configure Dolphin->General-> REmember properties for each folder23:37
xixorI turn that off in windows explorer, finder, and dolphin, first thing I do on any installation on any OS23:37
