[01:53] <cjae> can I make konqueror have a proper tool bar?
[02:39] <muji> hello fellas/ and femmas, i tried to do apt-get update, and i got this error: http://pastie.org/5409667
[04:09] <melvincv> omg I can't set a password for a user in kubuntu!
[04:10] <melvincv> even sudo passwd *username is not working!
[04:11] <melvincv> someone plz help me asap
[04:12] <RamchandraApte> melvincv: elaborate please
[04:12] <RamchandraApte> why did sudo passwd username fail?
[04:18] <melvincv> I'n not able to login
[04:20] <melvincv> When I try to login as the user, I get a terminal black screen and then the login prompt again.
[04:20] <melvincv> trying again...
[04:21] <melvincv> there is no 'switch user' ?
[04:21] <melvincv> ok, got it
[04:23] <melvincv> great. had to enter my pass 2 times to get back to my session.
[04:23] <melvincv> should be some lock feature...
[04:25] <melvincv> still no go...
[04:25] <melvincv> not able to login as a new user. That's a show stopper. Going back to Ubuntu and Unity then.
[04:27] <melvincv> Or log in automatically and use Kubuntu as a internet kiosk ;)
[04:27] <melvincv> The fastest way to get to the Internet?
[07:17] <tshering> how to format usb pendrive in kubuntu 12.10 64 bit
[07:18] <bazhang> tshering, with the cli? the gui?
[07:18] <tshering> gui if there is ..:)
[07:18] <tshering> gui if there is one...
[07:19] <bazhang> well gnome has gparted, not entirely sure about kde/qt
[07:20] <tshering> yes ..thats what i was searching for but couldn't find one
[07:23] <Tygart> I usually use KDE partition manager.
[07:24] <Tygart> its allready installed
[07:39] <Shift_> kubuntu should make chrome as the default browser
[07:40] <tsimpson> you mean chromium, chrome is non-free
[08:28] <tshering> Does the formatting in KDE Partition Manager is done via the properties tab ?
[09:16] <Torch> tshering: if you just want to re-create a file system, yes
[09:16] <tshering> thank you
[09:19] <tshering> two more questions - problems with sox in k3b in 12.10 and bluetooth problems in the same OS..

[09:58] <Mmike> it's barely readable with the font I have now
[10:00] <tsimpson> Mmike: I'd guess Taskbar under System Settings -> Application Appearance -> Fonts
[10:01] <Mmike> <- blind man

[12:52] <BluesKaj> Hi folks
[12:58] <markit> hi, anyone with the home in a NFS share?
[13:13] <Jarris> it's Plymouth, isn't it?
[13:20] <RamchandraApte> Jarris: why do you have a dialog asking for passphrase before ldm?
[13:20] <RamchandraApte> Jarris: do you encrypted disk or something?
[13:21] <Jarris> sure
[13:21] <RamchandraApte> Jarris: ?
[13:22] <Jarris> RamchandraApte: i have a encrypte disk, but /boot. so there will be a luks prompt at boot

[13:35] <hateball> Hmmm, is there a way to 'diff' on two open files in Kate?
[13:35] <hateball> I have them side by side
[13:40] <OerHeks> hateball try Kompare, you need to save those 2 files first.
[13:40] <hateball> OerHeks: I was hoping to not have to, otherwise I could just have used diff in the first place. Thanks tho :)
[13:41] <OerHeks> Kompare is graphical
[13:45] <hateball> OerHeks: Graphical or not is not really an issue to me, for some reason I just had two cutouts side by side in Kate and it got me curious :)
[13:46] <OerHeks> kate shuld have a diff option :-)
[13:46] <OerHeks> *c/should
[13:48] <hateball> I'll just go back to bash :p

[17:56] <WineQQ_> hi guys i need your help :)  I installed debian squeeze fileserver on vmware player and smb.conf works fine with user = share + guest ok = yes ....
[17:56] <WineQQ_> now i wanted to use the security = user option with smbpasswd -a user  but when im trying to enter a directory set with chmod 777 he doesnt accept the user/passwd  :(
[18:19] <notze_> hi there
[18:19] <notze_> actually my kubuntu runns very well except 2 things! kde doesnt auto recognize if i attach a monitor and the settings are never saved
[18:19] <notze_> does anybody have help for this topic?
[18:20] <notze_> i think thats very basic
[18:22] <genii-around> notze_: For the desktop to load up next time with the same settings as when you shut down... System Settings...System Administration... Startup and Shutdown... Session Management
[18:23] <genii-around> And check off "Restore previous session"
[18:23] <notze_> okay thats done
[18:23] <notze_> already thx
[18:23] <notze_> but that cannot be the solution since! you never know if i start the monitor attached or not
[18:27] <genii-around> notze_:  The detection of monitors after bootup is a tricky one. A lot of video cards made by ATI/AMD for instance have this problem where if one is not there at boot it never bothers to look again.
[18:28] <notze_> hum
[18:28] <notze_> ok
[18:28] <notze_> genii-around: look-> the monitor connections is recognized and it asks for opening the dialog
[18:29] <notze_> but thats not perfect
[18:29] <notze_> it should safe the settings
[18:33] <genii-around> notze_: But how can it know you will be plugging the same monitor in every time? etc
[18:35] <notze_> look i love linux i love kde. i have a system on the left with kubuntu on the left windows. same monitors. if i detach the windows machine it works perfectly
[18:35] <notze_> not with kubuntu
[18:35] <notze_> now i want to improve linux with discussing it with you guys :=
[18:35] <Torch> notze_: so? what's your point? windows and linux/kde are not the same?
[18:35] <notze_> no
[18:35] <notze_> windows can do it
[18:35] <Torch> notze_: then use windows.
[18:35] <notze_> so we need to be able to do it as well
[18:35] <notze_> i dotn want
[18:35] <Torch> notze_: if it's so important to you
[18:36] <notze_> Torch dont talk to me
[18:36] <Torch> notze_: patches welcome
[18:36] <notze_> yes as soon as i found that one is needed
[18:36] <notze_> i would do it
[18:36] <notze_> but i will exclude you from the user list since you'Re a destructive person
[18:57] <WineQQ_> hi guys i just installed debian fileserver and configured smb.conf  with security = share
[18:57] <WineQQ_> i also added 2 new user with password  with smbpasswd ... but when it comes to authorizing over network it doesnt work for me
[18:57] <WineQQ_> pls help :)
[19:17] <lordievader> WineQQ_: Ask around in #debian, this is #kubuntu only Kubuntu is supported here.
[19:24] <noaXess> hey all
[19:24] <noaXess> does anybody works on laptop with nvidia ?
[19:25] <noaXess> since latest kde and lightdm i have a lot grafic usage problem.. if effects are on, after minutes, i can't work.. and xorg uses to much cpu so i need to disable effects with SHIFT+ALT+F12..
[19:26] <noaXess> i have moved /etc/X11/xorg.conf so kubuntu should auto use the correct driver
[19:26] <noaXess> are there any settings that can optimize grafic for 12.10, nvidia, and xorg?
[19:28] <genii-around> noaXess: I'm not having problems with native KDE apps currently, but firefox sitting on pages with flash content will suddenly make X climb to 90-99% cpu until flash crashes then it goes back to normal.
[19:28] <noaXess> jep... it is also mine prob.. if i work in firefox then xorg cpu usage is horrible
[19:31] <noaXess> ineed to work with no effect.. but also this is sometimes uses a lot of cpu usage.
[19:31] <ozzzy_> firefox isn't good
[19:31] <noaXess> but it also happens in other programms.. w/o ff opend
[19:32] <genii-around> noaXess: gtk programs?
[19:34] <noaXess> hm.. too
[19:34] <noaXess> genii-around: and java progs.. also thunderbird.. normal usage
[19:35] <genii-around> I don't think thunderbird is a Qt app.
[19:37] <noaXess> yea.. but all those apps are working great on 12.04.. and now.. problems.. does the problem com e from lightdm?
[20:34] <notze_> if i boot the kubuntu from the cd like trial edition my UMTS device is found and works. if i install it its not working but found by lsusb what can it be
[20:34] <munny> hi all
[20:34] <notze_> the mobile_broadband is greyed out
[20:36] <munny> anyone can help me with kubuntuforums.net? from this mornig i can't access with 403 Forbidden message :(
[20:36] <munny> Spammer tolerant host network (hn-103) :(
[20:49] <genii-around> notze: You probably need the firmware loaded. I had this with my Gobi2000 adapter
[20:49] <genii-around> notze: You probably need the firmware loaded. I had this with my Gobi2000 adapter
[20:49] <notze> i have the same
[20:49] <notze> but it works on the live system
[20:49] <notze> that makes me wondering
[20:50] <genii-around> !info gobi-loader
[20:50] <genii-around> notze: The gobi-loader will try to load the firmware and make the wwan0 device
[20:51] <notze> right thats not here
[20:51] <notze> thx
[20:51] <notze> good hint
[20:52] <genii-around> notze: I may still have the firmware around, if so I can put it somewhere accessible for you
[20:52] <notze> try it! reboot
[20:52] <notze> yeah tell me in asecond :=
[20:52] <notze> thx
[20:58] <genii-around> notze: Any joy?
[20:59] <notze> mhm gobi-loader is active
[20:59] <notze> still looking for the right firmware
[20:59] <Tygart> I want to see my battery discharge rate using powertop but it does not show it. I was about to download batmon.app is this correct?
[20:59] <genii-around> notze: I'll PM
[20:59] <notze> thx
[21:05] <genii-around> notze: It's what I'm currently using on this box for my device: Bus 001 Device 003: ID 03f0:241d Hewlett-Packard Gobi 2000 Wireless Modem (QDL mode)
[21:06] <genii-around> ( right now the firmware is not loaded and it only sees one device, after it loads it sees two devices )
[21:08] <genii-around> notze: If you have those untarred and gobi-loader installed, should be good to go. I'll be here when you reboot
[21:09] <notze> cool th
[21:09] <genii-around> notze: I would rather do the support in open channel and not PM unless sensitive info, like my IP
[21:09] <notze> ok :)
[21:13] <enlon> Hi, is it possible in NetworkManager to enter the wpa2 key in hashed form and not the password?
[21:15] <genii-around> notze: dmesg reports OK for the gobi now?
[21:16] <notze> almost working!!! device is found
[21:16] <notze> only connecting doesnt
[21:16] <notze> but pin everything works
[21:16] <genii-around> Good :-)
[21:19] <notze> hum
[21:19] <notze> for some reason no connect maybee bad network or username problem
[21:19] <genii-around> notze: My amss.mbn file is probably not good for your provider ( mine is for Rogers ). Let me see to find a list
[21:23] <notze> systemname: ttyusb1
[21:23] <notze> thats strange i think
[21:28] <genii-around> notze: Nah. At any rate, you may find something useful to find the right set of ISP specific files here: http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Talk:Qualcomm_Gobi_2000
[21:42] <notze__> but that means now that on the live cd theres the firware active?!
[21:44] <genii-around> notze__: Apparently.
[21:47] <maurizio> CIAO

[22:41] <paul_> hello?
[22:42] <notze_> never allow yourself to ask in another channel if no one answers, otherwise a guy called Torch becomes crazy
[22:44] <notze_> and hes like a torch in the dark he can see it in every channel
[22:47] <paul_> thx for the advice but your pretty useless at helping with printing issues
[22:48] <paul_> theres only one channel and you're the only other one here
[22:53] <genii-around> paul_: Have you tried adding it from System Settings...Hardware...Printers   ?
[23:02] <genii-around> paul_: Have you tried adding it from System Settings...Hardware...Printers ?
[23:03] <genii-around> Meh, he is gone again.
