[01:00] My USB Mice are intermittently working. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. I have a forum thread on ubuntuforums.org but I have not got a reply from anyone in 3 days, when I started the thread. [01:10] Kagmar: hi [01:24] hi [01:58] Kagmar: is the mice working properly now? [01:59] Kagmar: use my nick name [01:59] at the moment yes. but it doesn't always work. [01:59] what do you mean use your nick name [02:14] press the letter p and press tab button and my nick name will get auto completed when you message here. I fou use my nick i will get alert in my desktop and i can answer you faster [02:14] press the letter p and press tab button and my nick name will get auto completed when you message here. If you use my nick i will get alert in my desktop and i can answer you faster [02:17] Kagmar: ^ [02:17] phoenix_firebrd: ok [02:17] Kagmar: nice [02:18] Kagmar: is your mouse a new one? [02:18] phoenix_firebrd: yes [02:19] Kagmar: when does it not work? [02:20] phoenix_firebrd: at random, I will be doing something when it suddenly stops working and I switch to the PS2 mouse and it works. [02:21] phoenix_firebrd: while it was not working I tried 3 USB mice, one PS2 mouse, and the USB mice in a PS2 adapter and only the crappiest of the USB mice worked in the PS2 adapter. [02:21] Kagmar: so when it stops, does the keyboad work? and also the operating system? [02:22] The keyboard works, but is PS2 [02:22] phoenix_firebrd: and so does the os [02:23] phoenix_firebrd: so I don't know if keyboards stop working... I do know that usb storage work when the mice don't. [02:24] phoenix_firebrd: so as far as I know, its just the USB mice. [02:24] Kagmar: how frequently this happen? [02:25] phoenix_firebrd: My USB mouse hasn't acted up in the past 10-12 hrs... but it generally works for a day or so then stops working for 2 or 3 more days. [02:27] phoenix_firebrd: I have seen a similar problems in most debian system's bug sites. [02:28] Kagmar: do you have any other linux installations of different versions or in worst case any other operating system? [02:30] I used to have windows and Backtrack 5r4 (I think) before my harddrive took a dump, but now I only have Kubuntu 12.10 [02:31] phoenix_firebrd: not used to needing to use the nicks [02:31] Kagmar: ok [02:31] Kagmar: Can you confirm that the mice's hardware is not the problem? [02:32] phoenix_firebrd: yes, it was the same with 3 USB mice and it worked fine in both backtrack and windows before I formatted my hdd. [02:34] phoenix_firebrd: Also I have not had problems with PS2 mice. === allen is now known as Guest83575 [02:35] Kagmar: have you used paste.kde.org? [02:36] phoenix_firebrd: no.

[09:37] i can see it from the partition manager [09:37] does anyone know which package contains "plasmaengineexplorer" apt tells me it is in "kde-workspace-bin" but this doesn't contain it [09:37] but it cant be mounted [09:44] zizi: How are you trying to mount the partition? [09:55] Hello everyone. I have a problem with sound in Kubuntu - a while after logging in, it dissapears. According to advice I got from BluesKaj yesterday, I added "options snd-hda-intel index=0" to my /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf, but that did not help. The audio device is "Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] nee ATI SBx00 Azalia (Intel HDA) (rev 40)" and the Phonon backend in use is gstreamer. === Tonio_aw is now known as Tonio_ [10:22] Hello, from time to time I get a SSL auth error popup message for api.opendesktop.org on my KDE Plasma-Desktop. [10:22] Any idea what wants to connect to the opendesktop api and how to get rid of is? [10:26] chr1st0ph: it should be from System Settings -> Account Details -> Social Desktop [10:29] tsimpson: thx [10:52] Hello everyone. I have a problem -- sound dissapears a while after logging in. Nothing but a reboot helps. I added "options snd-hda-intel index=0" to /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf and pcm.!default { type plug slave.pcm { type hw card 0 device 0 } } to /etc/asound.conf. Neither helped. The phonon backend in use is gstreamer. Pulseaudio is present, but removing it does not solve the problem. [10:53] I'll be right back. [11:18] Ok, I'm back. If anything, can "lib32asound2" being installed be the problem? Was a dependency of TeamViewer, and removing TeamViewer (and disconnecting my phone) helped. Now I'm not sure which one was the problem. [11:20] theadmin: I have teamviewer 8, Kubuntu 12.10 and ATI HDMI sound. had no problems at all [11:21] sbivol: Hm, okay, then it must be my phone being connected as "media device". [11:21] Though I'm on Precise, but the teamviewer package is universal. [11:21] theadmin_: shouldn't. Media device probably refers only to the fact that it's a media player [11:23] sbivol: Odd. Well, anyway, I beleive the problem is solved. I hope so, at least. I'll try reinstalling teamviewer later... Cause I do need it. [11:24] Never mind... The problem is still there :/ Sound disappeared again. [11:25] Bah, who ate my nickname. === theadmin_ is now known as theadmin === Tonio_ is now known as Tonio_aw [11:27] Oh, ha, silly me, sound didn't dissapear, just silence at the beginning of my MP3 this time. [11:29] And NOW it dissapeared. [11:31] Hm, no sound in TTYs either. It seems that this isn't KDE-specific, I shall move this to #ubuntu [11:31] theadmin: please give some more info: Teamviewer version/architecture, KDE version, sund card driver in use [11:31] s/sund/sound/ [11:42] kqrglkqneg [12:18] Hiyas all === Tonio_aw is now known as Tonio_ === jan is now known as Guest47152 === cryptfu_ is now known as Guest72142 === casso_ is now known as casso === cmagina_away is now known as cmagina === pjoe_dj is now known as pjoe === lftp is now known as Tonio_ === spawn[dead] is now known as spawn57 === Tonio_ is now known as Tonio_aw === Tonio_aw is now known as Tonio_ === pjoe is now known as pjoe_afk [15:55] hello world, I'm searching for the kubuntu backports ppa, but I can't find it again, could someone please help me [15:55] ?

[23:13] I am missing my package application installer manager in kubuntu, how do I install it again? [23:14] I mean to say, how could have happened to it? I did not perform any console commands to remove it. [23:17] odd, muon shouldn't be removed, sudo apt-get install muon should bring it back [23:17] evening guys - anyone know where do-release-upgrade falls wrt packages and what provides it please? [23:18] i'm still trying to get up to testing raring ringtail, and do-release-upgrade is broken [23:19] muon was removed [23:19] so was the kpackagekit [23:20] kpackagekit went in the move to 11.10, i used to use it - i didn't realize muon had gone too.

[23:22] it wasn't kpackagekit that went between 1104 and 1110, it was kpackage, apper's predecessor [23:22] i've had a busy day and a crud night - just ignore my burblings and carry on :) [23:22] sorry [23:23] what is the package name for "Kpackagekit" software installer? === Guest37185 is now known as VlanX [23:23] apper [23:26] thank you [23:27] shadeslayer, is muon installed by default on kubuntu 12.10? [23:27] or just apper? [23:27] should be [23:27] Last nigh I had apper. [23:27] apper was dropped for reasons I don't remeber [23:27] I see [23:27] today it was removed somehow [23:28] check /var/log/apt/history.log [23:28] apper is still default in 12.10 [23:28] no [23:28] really? [23:28] I had it last night? [23:28] we ship muon for the last couple of releases [23:28] maybe you installed it? [23:28] separately [23:28] no ... [23:28] i still have apper [23:28] :) [23:28] :) [23:28] am I dreaming? [23:28] did you upgrade [23:28] or do a clean install [23:29] I just installed kubuntu 12.10 yesterday [23:29] fresh [23:29] 0.o [23:29] I am not familiar with kde packages. [23:29] sec [23:29] http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/releases/12.10/release/kubuntu-12.10-desktop-amd64.manifest [23:29] no mention of apper ^ [23:30] i have 32 bit [23:30] http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/releases/12.10/release/kubuntu-12.10-desktop-i386.manifest [23:30] same thing [23:30] so it's impossible for you to have apper unless you explicitly didn't install it [23:30] I did not. [23:31] because muon interace looks much differnt, more like apt manager [23:31] can you pastebin your /var/log/apt/history.log [23:31] ok [23:31] I can tell you exactly what pulled in apper then [23:34] shadeslayer: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1556986/ [23:35] hmm [23:35] odd [23:35] Install: plasma-active-mobilecomponents:i386 (2.0+git2012071701-0ubuntu1, automatic), kalarm:i386 (4.9.4-0ubuntu0.1), share-like-connect-data:i386 (2.0+git2012021101-0ubuntu1, automatic), plasma-active-metadatamodels:i386 (2.0+git2012071701-0ubuntu1, automatic), libqtwebkit-qmlwebkitplugin:i386 (2.2.1-4ubuntu1, automatic), share-like-connect:i386 (2.0+git2012021101-0ubuntu1, automatic), plasma-active-data:i386 (2.0+git2012071701-0ubuntu1, [23:35] automatic) [23:35] shadeslayer: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. [23:36] doing that removes muon [23:36] can someone else reproduce? [23:37] what should I be looking at there? [23:38] hmm. [23:38] I can do it again to see if it removes it? [23:39] how can I test? how to write the command? === cmagina is now known as cmagina_away [23:43] shadeslayer, what does this mean? a bug? [23:43] maybe [23:43] needs someone with a clean install [23:44] i just run apper, that is not the programs i used to installed some alarm clock, different interfance. [23:44] gui interface. [23:45] it was more like ubuntu software center since the icons for applications was showing. [23:46] well I have to go back to windows 7 to do some studying. [23:47] It was too early to celebrate last night (I finally found my distro and this happened). [23:47] wait what [23:49] anyway, break time for me
