xixorjedihawk: did that fix yo shit yo?00:36
smjDo I need to add myself to a group to be able to access other people's home directories? My account wasn't created first, so I had to make it an admin by checking some boxes in KDE User Management00:38
smjI'm trying to access home directories on some partitions that shouldn't have ECryptFS installed, but Dolphin says it can't00:39
smjI guess so, I can open the directories as root in terminal00:40
smjI can't open the directories without root in terminal either, so it's not anything KDE specific00:43
DarthFrog!permissions | smj01:19
ubottusmj: An explanation of what file permissions are and how they can be manipulated can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions01:19
DarthFrogsmj: You need the correct permissions to do what you're wanting to do.01:20
DarthFrogIn a nutshell, permissions are Linux's ACLs.01:20
smjI remember being able to read my home directories on other partitions without messing with its permissions01:22
OerHekssmj, old install, with a different username?01:23

xwalkDoes anyone know of a program that would constantly be creating a directory in ~/downloads?02:39
xwalkPretty much everytime I boot it gets created and I haven't pinned down which application it could be that's creating it.02:39
xwalkWell, not "pretty much everytime". It is every time.02:40

ovidiu-florinhello, evem though I've set up to open .xml files with Kate it still oppenes them with firefox. Why?14:36
hateballovidiu-florin: you mean when you doubleclick an xml file on in dolphin for instance?14:37
ovidiu-florinhateball: yes14:38
hateballovidiu-florin: did you configure it by rightclicking a file -> properties -> wrench ?14:38
ovidiu-florinhateball: no, i configured it by right click -> open with, Kate, set as default14:39
ovidiu-florinand also checked this in system settings14:39
ovidiu-florinI've entered where you told me, ans it sees the file as an HTML file, why?14:40
ovidiu-florinindee inside the file I don't have the xml specification, that must be the reason14:41
hateballcould well be14:41
hateballbut if the right filter (*.xml) is set I dont think it even cares, it should still try to open in whatever you've set14:42
ovidiu-florinthe filter is set14:42
ovidiu-florinbut it thinks this is an html file apparently14:42
ovidiu-florinand that's why it oppenes it with firefox14:42

randomatixit hides whenever another window needs that space. Seems to work well enough that I'm guessing it's a real feature.15:50

Ab3Lhello19:10
vbgunzI experienced random freezes yesterday. Complete freezes that locked everything up and only a hard reboot would solve. Anyhow, I think blasklisting sp5100_tco to fix some errors actually caused the freezes. It may be to early to tell but un-blacklisting sp5100_tco and so far, I'm feeling better after a day19:11
Ab3Li've a problem with icons for some months yet. in particular with the application "Radio Tray". When the application runs, its icon should be in the panel.

TygartAb3L: change your icon set, or you can change the icon by right clicking > Properties then click the icon that shows in the box19:31
vbgunzI figured it out, it seems if you have a .fonts directory in your home directory, steam breaks :/19:32
TygartAb3L: (FYI) some of the icon sets will not have an Icon for all the programs so you will need to edit each icon like I said or choose another Icon set..19:33

xwalkovidiu-florin: I'm also seeing from the log you posted that kmod is disabled. That may have something to do with it, though I'm not completely sure.22:40
ovidiu-florinxwalk: I've just notised that the sound is also gone22:40
ovidiu-florinxwalk: actualy it's not gone. It works... kind of... the sound is interupted22:43
Marius80yofel, SIR_Taco__ ok,  I've read the whole bug report.... but I still have no clue how to solve it22:43
SIR_Taco__Marius80: unforutnately, it seems it will be fixed next kde release22:43
yofelby waiting an hour, a fixed package will be in the ppa soon22:43
yofelSIR_Taco__: too annoying, patch is imported22:43
SIR_Taco__or that :)22:43
SIR_Taco__yofel: good to hear... it has been driving me crazy22:44
yofelack22:44
xwalkWell it looks like according to this: http://askubuntu.com/questions/125529/wireless-doesnt-work-on-a-broadcom-bcm4312 you can try the command "sudo apt-get install firmware-b34-installer" and that may fix the wireless issue on reboot. It's a shame I've never run into this problem with my Broadcom wireless card. I might know more about the problem in that case.22:45
xwalkovidiu-florin: ^22:45
ovidiu-florinxwalk: I suppose you also have a Dell ?22:46
xwalkI actually have a Lenovo 4446 with the BCM4312.22:46
ovidiu-florinxwalk: cannot find firmware-b34... only b4322:47
xwalkovidiu-florin: Run this command> "apt-cache search b43". The package you would want according to that link would be the very first one.22:48
Marius80yofel, Is the expression "by waiting an hour" a figure of speech or are we really talking about an hour?22:48
yofelwhat release are you on?22:48
ovidiu-florinxwalk: you misspelled, it's actually b43 not b3422:49
Marius80yofel, 12.04  LTS22:49
xwalkovidiu-florin: Ah, yes my mistake.22:49
Marius80KDE version is 4.8.522:49
yofel4.8? That's at least not affected by the mentioned bug22:50
Marius80but I also do have this bug here22:50
SIR_Taco__it was a regression... but not sure where it came up originally, could have been around there22:51
yofela regression in 4.9, not 4.822:51
Marius80so what does that mean to me now?22:52
yofelMarius80: so the entry does eventiually work, but only if you press multiple times?22:52
Marius80yofel, exactly22:53
Marius80I am going to describe it22:53
Marius80at first some informations about the settings:22:53
Marius80Text Completion -> Dropdown List22:53
Marius80User Interface -> Free floating window22:54
Marius80User Interface -> Command oriented22:54
Marius80I type kwr   and the dropdown list offers  "kwrite"22:54
Marius80I use the arrow down key and select "kwrite" from the dropdown and press ENTER22:55
Marius80result:  the dropdown list disappears,  the word "kwrite" stands in the input field,  but nothing happened22:55
Marius80then I press ENTER again,  and an area expands with a cogwheel symbol and the text "Run kwrite" next to it22:56
Marius80then I press ENTER again  and kwrite starts22:57
Marius80this bug does not always happen22:57
Marius80sometimes,  it starts at the first try22:57
Marius80sometimes,  it needs 2 enter22:57
yofelsorry, at least I don't remember such behaviour with 4.8, and I'm not sure what would cause it..23:00
Marius80yofel, can I upgrade to KDE 4.9 ?23:02
Marius80yofel, I am running 12.04 LTS23:02
yofelMarius80: you can http://www.kubuntu.org/news/kde-sc-4.9.323:02
Marius80yofel, ok,  and after this upgrade,  I will have the other bug mentioned before, right?  ;-)23:04
Marius80yofel, the kubuntu backports are already in my sources.list23:05
Marius80what is the name of the package I need?23:05
yofelcan you please go to dolphin or so and open Help->About KDE?23:05
yofeland tell me your platform version?23:05
Marius80KDE 4.8.523:07
Marius80yofel, actually it says:  "KDE - Be Free!    Platform Version 4.8.5 (4.8.5)"23:07
yofelok, so it's 4.823:07
yofelopen muon-updater from krunner and look for updates if the ppa is already enabled23:08
Marius80yofel, sorry for bothering you,  but I would prefer the shell23:08
yofelsudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade23:08
Marius80yofel, a dist-upgrade would bring me kubuntu 12.10, right?23:09
yofelno23:09
yofel!dist-upgrade23:09
ubottuA dist-upgrade will install new dependencies for packages already installed and may remove packages if they are no longer needed. This will not bring you to a new release of Ubuntu, see !upgrade if that is your intention.23:09
Marius80yofel, http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=aTYmyXMa23:10
Marius80beside others,  this line is in my sources.list:23:11
Marius80deb http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu precise-backports main restricted universe multiverse23:11
Marius80this is the backports line, right?23:11
yofelaaah23:11
yofelnope23:11
Marius80oh, sorry23:11
yofelthat's the official backports archive, 4.9.3 is in kubuntu's backports PPA23:12
Marius80oh I see23:12
Marius80sorry23:12
Marius80what line shall I add?23:12
Marius80is this the launchpad repository?23:13
yofelsudo add-apt-repository ppa:kubuntu-ppa/backports23:13
Marius80yofel, ok,  really sorry for asking,  but...  my sources.list  did _not_ change23:16
yofelit adds a new file in sources.list.d23:16
Marius80I made a backup of my old sources.list,  and they are exactly the same23:16
yofelfeel free to copy the deb lines over and remove the file if you want everything in one file23:17
Marius80oh,  great... found it23:17
Marius80yep, I will do so23:17
ovidiu-florinxwalk: sorry I dissapeared, X crashed, and had to rebot in recovery and uninstall fglrx.... again...23:20
Marius80yofel, http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=YB5RucSU23:21
Marius80yofel, nothing to see from kde 4.923:21
yofelyou did run update again?23:21
Marius80yes23:21
yofelMarius80: can you please pastebin the output of 'apt-cache policy'?23:22
Marius80yofel, http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=NzEudjcy23:23
yofelwell, I can already see that there's no ppa.launchpad.net in there, so something went wrong when editing the sources23:23
Marius80yofel, http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=2DkBj8vA23:24
ovidiu-florinxwalk: reboot, again, brb23:25
yofelcan you pastebin your sources list too please?23:25
Marius80erm, you are right23:26
Marius80I pasted the stuff to my backup of the sources.list23:26
yofelheh23:26
Marius80sorrryyyy :(23:26
yofelnp, happens :D23:26
Marius80since I started to program (perl, php,  whatever)  and something goes wrong,  the first thing to check for me is always:23:27
Marius80Am I editing the right file?23:27
Marius80yofel, me again... a bad error now...23:28
Marius80yofel, pastebin.com/raw.php?i=PwzF5kX623:29
yofelthat looks like aptitude being stupid, try apt-get23:29
Marius80oh my goodness,  I pressed enter by a mistake23:31
Marius80lol it is installing and removing stuff now23:31
Marius80partyyy23:31
yofelit'll only remove kdegames, make sure kubuntu-desktop is installed later23:32
yofelor rather kdegames, kubuntu-desktop isn't even being removed23:32
Marius80yofel, look that I said "yes" to by a mistake23:33
Marius80http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=GwwcYsyh23:33
yofelwell, *that* solution is fine23:33
Marius80not sure about that23:34
yofelit removes some old libraries (OK) and old kernel headers (OK)23:34
Marius80my gf will not be happy about having removed all the games23:34
yofelin this solution they're not removed23:34
Marius80oh, I see:  libkdegames623:37
Marius80yofel, thank you very much so far,  after the update has finished,  I'll tell you the result23:39
yofelMarius80: you'll suffer from the mentioned bug until this is published: https://launchpad.net/~kubuntu-ppa/+archive/backports/+sourcepub/2790899/+listing-archive-extra23:41
Marius80yofel, great,  so I jumped out of the frying pan into the fire23:43
yofelnah, it does still kinda work, just doesn't like to use the same keyword again. I think you can work around the bug by using the arrow keys to switch around a bit23:44
Marius80yofel, how will I find out then the bugfixed is released?23:45
yofeljust check for updates again in a bit23:46
Marius80do you mean the  dist-upgrade thing?23:47
yofelyes23:48
Marius80thank you :)23:48
