[02:59] <roasted> hello!
[03:31] <AlexZion> Hi everyone, I get some strange effect on flash player in chromium, it seems like the transparent mode has problem to rendere properly .png images ....
[03:31] <Degru> AlexZion: 64-bit or 32-bit?
[03:32] <AlexZion> it was working perfectly until few days ago , so for sure the reasonis on some upgrade ...., 64 bit
[03:32] <Degru> AlexZion: So it's not a flash issue, it's an issue with desktop effects interacting with flash windows?
[03:33] <Degru> AlexZion: Does flash work correctly?
[03:33] <AlexZion> no Degru isa a problem inside web pages just using chromium , so probably a chromium problem or even a flash problem if is different for different browser , but it shouldn't I guess
[03:33] <Degru> AlexZion: So it's chromium-browser, not google-chrome, right?
[03:34] <AlexZion> yeah chromiun-browser Degru
[03:34] <Degru> Does this persist in Firefox?
[03:35] <AlexZion> I don't have chrome installed to check if is the same ....
[03:35] <AlexZion> no Degru in firefox it works normally
[03:35] <Degru> AlexZion: Try using firefox and seeing if the problem persists
[03:35] <Degru> AlexZion: Oh, OK.
[03:36] <Degru> AlexZion: I actually have 64-bit kubuntu. lemme see if i have the problem.
[03:36] <AlexZion> I guess the problem is in some chromium upgrade, or maybe can be even just a problem in my config ....
[03:37] <Degru> AlexZion: I'll install chromium-browser and see if I have the problem. My only problem with flash at the moment is that it's horribly slow.
[03:37] <AlexZion> ok Degru, I get the problem on my home page http://www.alexgrafic.it the small apps on the left where appears some png images
[03:38] <AlexZion> it seems like it doesn't refresh the alpha channel or something like that Degru
[03:43] <AlexZion> ok Degru here you can see the difference between chromium and firefox in my case  http://wstaw.org/m/2013/03/13/plasma-desktopkd2047.png
[03:45] <Degru> Oh, so it's that artifact at the bottom?
[03:47] <AlexZion> yeah Degru, is an alpha channel integretation regression
[03:47] <Degru> I'm having really wierd glitches there too.
[03:47] <AlexZion> well Degru, have you tried !?!, did you get the same ?, otherwise could be just my problem ...
[03:47] <Degru> Lemme check somehting
[03:48] <AlexZion> ahh ok ..., and it should be fine in firefox instead , right ?
[03:50] <Degru> AlexZion: Sorry if I'm slow. My Internet is intermittent and I'm trying to help people on other channels.
[03:51] <AlexZion> don't worry buddy....
[03:51] <Degru> AlexZion: Alright, here's what I'm getting: http://imgur.com/fyfmuc9
[03:51] <Degru> AlexZion: Even worse than yours
[03:52] <AlexZion> yeah , mucho worst :) , but in firefox works fine for you too Degru ?
[03:53] <Degru> lemme see
[03:54] <Degru> AlexZion: Yeah, it's fine
[03:55] <Degru> google-chrome displays it fine as well.
[03:55] <Degru> although im using the pepperflash plugin. I'll try it with the installed flash plugin.
[03:55] <AlexZion> ahh ok , so is of course a chromium-browser problem ...., thanks a lot for your help Degru
[03:56] <AlexZion> i'll tell it on #chromium channel , it should be the right place I guess Degru ?
[03:56] <Degru> Ah I see. I enabled the flash plugin that chromium-browser uses in google-chrome and I have the problem. If I use the pepperflash plugin that comes with chrome it works fine.
[03:57] <Degru> Degru: Yes, I think so.
[03:57] <Degru> It appears to be a problem with chromium and chrome and the system flash plugin.
[03:58] <AlexZion> ok I will write there and I'll see, may be can be fix easily
[03:58] <AlexZion> thanks again Degru ;)
[07:26] <lordievader> Good morning
[09:37] <murthy> hello everyone
[10:50] <Jarris> using a keyfile to decrypt a luks partition, the volum group now stayes inactive and boot stucks... how to auto activate this VG at boot?
[10:50] <Jarris> thx in advance
[10:59] <BluesKaj> Howdy all
[11:13] <BronySXiYL> Kubuntu keeps crashing.
[11:14] <BronySXiYL> It goes back to the login screen.
[11:14] <lordievader> BronySXiYL: Did you try to install the graphics driver?
[11:15] <BronySXiYL> I don't know.
[11:15] <lordievader> BronySXiYL: Since this sounds like a faulty graphics driver to me.
[11:15] <BronySXiYL> Mmmmmm... SUre.
[11:16] <BronySXiYL> Just a note: Before I installed Kubuntu, Windows restarted alot.
[11:16] <lordievader> BronySXiYL: That is quite likely unrelated. Do you know how to get to a tty?
[11:17] <BronySXiYL> Hmm...
[11:17] <BronySXiYL> No.
[11:17] <BronySXiYL> I don't.
[11:18] <lordievader> BronySXiYL: Are you chatting from a seconday pc?
[11:18] <BronySXiYL> No.
[11:18] <lordievader> BronySXiYL: Hmm, would be quite usefull... Unless you know how to use a cli irc application ;)
[11:19] <BronySXiYL> I can install one.
[11:19] <vbgunz> anyone know why I get 4 prompts that I'll be logging into opendesktop.org when I open up my updates?
[11:19] <BronySXiYL> Is there one in the Software Center?
[11:21] <lordievader> BronySXiYL: It's more that you need to know how to use them.... you can no longer get to the Kubuntu desktop?
[11:21] <BronySXiYL> I'm on it.
[11:21] <BronySXiYL> I'm on the desktop.
[11:22] <BronySXiYL> It's just at random times, it just goes to the login screen.
[11:22] <BronySXiYL> SO I log in.
[11:22] <lordievader> BronySXiYL: Ok. Then I fail to understand your problem.
[11:22] <BronySXiYL> Okay!
[11:23] <BronySXiYL> Hmm... Might ave something to do with Minecraft, it only crashed when I was running it.

[12:29] <eshack> ok, best way to share a local folder to multiple users on the same box,  what is the best method?  I read here bindfs, and that does seem like a good method, though a little complex to setup.  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Bindfs-SharedDirectoryLocalUsers
[12:29] <eshack> However I have read several places about setting up a group, adding the users to that group making a shared folder that belongs to that group and presto shared folder.
[12:30] <lordievader> eshack: I'd go with the second option.
[12:30] <eshack> That seems simpler, but seems like a potential problem if user A puts a file in there, wouldn't it belong to userA, and therefore userB wouldn't be able to r/w/e it?
[12:30] <eshack> r/w/x*
[12:32] <lordievader> eshack: As long as they are in the same group, and the group has rw to the file. User-b can edit user-a files.
[12:34] <eshack> lordievader: right, but that is the catch, if userA decides to copy a picture to the shared folder, it belongs to userA, and therefore, just being placed in a group folder isn't going to change it's permissions, which means the 'share' breaks down, and is no longer a shared folder?  is that correct?  sounds like a permissions disaster in the end with a sys admin clean being the end result.
[12:35] <lordievader> eshack: You are probably right. To solve this you could make a cron job to run every hour to correct the file permissions on that shared folder.
[12:36] <eshack> lordievader: ahhh, I like that, that is very workable, I was thinking more complex, but cronjob is simple and quick
[12:36] <eshack> lordievader: thanks!
[12:36] <lordievader> eshack: No problem ;)
[12:58] <calwig> how does one move taskbar panel from below to top?
[12:59] <lordievader> calwig: Right click -> panel options -> edge of the screen (from the top of my head)
[13:09] <murthy> bbl
[13:12] <calwig> lordievader: hmm
[13:14] <calwig> lordievader: that is done anywhere on the taskbar?
[13:14] <calwig> edge of the screen is what i dont find
[13:15] <Mamarok> calwig: right click, Panel settings, then you will find it
[13:15] <lordievader> calwig: Euhh sorry, the right-click should be: right-click on the taskbar.
[14:02] <calwig> Mamarok: lordievader sure i can do all that, Panel settings comes up. Where does one grab the entire panel to move to the top. That is what i cant find heh
[14:03] <calwig> I can add a panel, default panel, but not move a panel
[14:04] <lordievader> calwig: Click and drag the button "Screen Edge".
[14:05] <calwig> got it
[14:05] <calwig> yes
[14:05] <calwig> Achhh
[14:05] <calwig> thanks
[14:05] <calwig> :)
[14:05] <lordievader> No problem, calwig :)
[14:05] <calwig> Virtualbox drives one nuts, when the panel is on the bottom, cant click on the menus when its full screen
[14:06] <calwig> so Im moving it atop
[14:43] <jjman6_> I'm running Kubuntu 12.10  and i have been having some strange issues.  Namely the system keeps shutting itself down randomly.  Not crashing per se. its actually calling a system shutdown from root somehow.  Feels like a virus to me Any thoughts
[14:47] <calwig> svchost.exe
[14:47] <calwig> kind of windows, it has these shutdown issues like, suddenly shutting down
[14:48] <calwig> for no apparent reason.
[14:48] <calwig> jjman6_: check the logs, see what caused tha
[14:48] <calwig> t
[14:50] <jjman6_> calwig: which log should i be looking at
[14:50] <away> any directions as how to install a new lightdm login screen theme?
[14:52] <lordievader> jjman6_: I don't think it is a virus. As calwig said check the logs, best place to start would be /var/log/syslog
[14:52] <calwig> jjman6_: KsystemLog
[14:54] <calwig> jjman6_: dig in there for anything that resembles unstable, perhaps software or hardware
[14:55] <jjman6_> well i frequently have problems w/ the shitty intel video card crashing.  but X just crashes and restarts.  (its a laptop)  but thats never forced it to shutdown
[14:55] <RamchandraApte> I would be highly interested if it were a virus.
[14:56] <away> specifically, I added the theme folder to /usr/share/kde4/apps/lightdm-kde-greeter/themes/KDE-4.10-KDM but the theme doesn't turn up in the lightDM menu in system settings
[14:56] <jjman6_> Its just suspicious because i've never had these random shutdown's b4 until 12.10
[14:57] <jjman6_> only thing i see unstable in there is  " Marking TSC unstable due to TSC halts in idle"
[14:58] <calwig> RamchandraApte: same here
[14:59] <calwig> jjman6_: so 12.04 worked ok?
[14:59] <jjman6_> yep
[15:00] <jjman6_> been having problems getting both netbeans & eclipse working in 12.10 also 8-(
[15:00] <calwig> why on 12.10. eclipse works on 12.04 no?
[15:07] <jjman6_> aha i think i found hte issue  calwig
[15:07] <jjman6_>   537.241170] thermal_sys: Critical temperature reached (99 C), shutting down
[15:07] <jjman6_> it would seem my laptop is overheating & shutting  itself down 8-p
[15:08] <calwig> i thought about it first
[15:08] <calwig> but then I thought, nahh...
[15:09] <calwig> It seems logical. and its not software driven, its cpu triggering it
[15:09] <calwig> good!
[15:09] <calwig> now go buy a fan
[15:09] <calwig> :)
[15:09] <FloodBotK1> calwig: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[15:10] <jjman6_> lol.  i should have guessed.
[15:11] <calwig> jjman6_: im telling ya, i thought about it.... but i couldnt imagine it being so
[15:11] <calwig> :)
[15:11] <jjman6_> probably means its time to open the laptop up and clean the dust out.  As this 1 is usually pretty good at controlling its temp.
[15:12] <jjman6_> calwig: thx for the help.  relieved to know its not something spooky
[15:12] <calwig> sure!
[15:12] <calwig> that's certainly spooky
[15:13] <jjman6_> thats easily fixable tho.   I was starting to believe someone was controlling my computer.   it would shut down at weird times.
[15:14] <calwig> it was controlled. by the cpu heh
[15:18] <vincentS> hi all i'm looking for a way to remove double packages on my system. i have 2 software-updates and software-center one is too many can i just rightclick and choose uninstall ?
[15:24] <lamarque> hi, can someone tell me which NetworkManager version is shipped with Kubuntu 13.04 alpha2?
[15:28] <genii-around> lamarque: 0.9.8.0-0ubuntu1
[15:29] <lamarque> genii-around: thanks.
[16:20] <elena-IK> fonts in firefox (menu, toolbars, preferences) got bigger over night, they were normal when I shut down the computer yesterday, now they are bigger than in other programs. fonts of viewed websites are normal, only the ones in menus etc are bigger. any ideas? (kubuntu 12.10, firefox 19.0.2 installed from the kubuntu repositories)
[16:26] <elena-IK> thunderbird is affected too
[16:30] <genii-around> elena-IK: You may want to look into qt-curve to unify looks across KDE and GTK apps
[16:30] <genii-around> !info qtcurve
[16:31] <genii-around> And then in System Settings... Application Appearance... you get GTK settings you can tweak
[16:32] <elena-IK> how do I see if a program uses gtk or qt? fonts are normal in gimp or thunar, don't they use gtk too?
[16:35] <elena-IK> that worked, thanks
[16:36] <genii-around> elena-IK: Those are both gtk, yes. Likely some mozilla thing since firefox and thinderbird but not gimp or thunar affected
[16:40] <elena-IK> strange, strange. but setting the font in System Setting - Application Appearance - Gtk configuration to Sans Serif 10 fixed it. so thank you.
[16:43] <digitaljedi> whats up?
[16:44] <digitaljedi> hi
[16:45] <digitaljedi> hi
[16:45]  * genii-around slides digitaljedi a coffee and goes back to work

[16:53] <genii-around> nandhu: Perhaps try /j #bash
[17:09] <buchstabensalat> when I copy/move/compress/extract something with dolphin, I only get progress notifications in the notification area, and those aren't very verbose. is there a way to get a classical progress window with info about size, time left, speed, %complete? or a way to get that info in the notification area? If I uncheck Notifications Settings -> Pop Up Notices -> File transfers and other jobs, then I don't get progress info at all, neithe
[17:09] <buchstabensalat> r as notification nor as progress window. I already asked in #kde, but didn't get an answer there.
[17:16] <roasted_> hello!
[17:17] <roasted_> Anybody have any idea why changing my menubar style to top doesn't actually GO to the top? http://ompldr.org/vaHF4Ng/topmenubar1.png
[17:25] <genii-around> buchstabensalat: Are you using the Icon-Only Task Manager?
[17:26] <buchstabensalat> genii-around, yes
[17:28] <genii-around> buchstabensalat: Then try: rightclick ... Icon-Only Task Manager Settings... choose Behavior.. un-check "Show job progress on task icon" and save
[17:29] <genii-around> ( may need a logoff-logon cycle to take effect )
[17:29] <buchstabensalat> k, without logoff it doesn't work, I'll try in a few minutes. thanks.
[17:41] <Farsaj> Hello guys? i'am have trouble with muon, muon not update anymore ((((
[17:43] <buchstabensalat> genii-around, thanks, that did the job
[18:02] <lordievader> Good evening
[18:03] <jman074> hello everyone
[18:03] <lordievader> Hey jman074, how are you?
[18:03] <jman074> im good and you
[18:05] <jman074> i need your skills once more. after all that work i have to delete all java from my computer and start over. i just need help with the delete part i got the rest
[18:05] <lordievader> jman074: Doing good on this side of the screen :)
[18:06] <jman074> i went to the file and it doesn't give me the option to put it in the trash
[18:08] <lordievader> jman074: What file are you talking about here?
[18:10] <jman074> the one we installed yesturday jre.1.7.0_17
[18:11] <lordievader> jman074: The one in your Downloads dir?
[18:11] <jman074> the one we extracted to the system.
[18:11] <jman074> i have to delete all of the java
[18:11] <lordievader> jman074: Huh, why? You've just installed it....
[18:12] <jman074> its a long story lol
[18:13] <jman074> it won't work with my classes. in short
[18:14] <jman074> so i gotta download oracle seven. but i got all the script from webud8team to do that once i get everything off
[18:14] <lordievader> jman074: Tell me, I'm intrigued.
[18:16] <jman074> it keeps tellin me that i don't have the right plugins to run the applets for my class. when i tell it to search for the plugins firefox seaches for hours.
[18:17] <lordievader> jman074: Might be actually quite simple, Firefox probably looks in the wrong directories. Let me google this a bit.
[18:17] <jman074> okay ill be around
[18:17] <jman074> thankx
[18:18] <lordievader> jman074: Well here you go: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/manual-plugin-install-linux-136395.html Do you happen to know where firefox stores it'
[18:18] <lordievader> s plugins?
[18:19] <lordievader> Ok well it's one of these: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Determining_plugin_directory_on_Linux
[18:21] <jman074> yay some headway lets see if i can do this lol
[18:22] <lordievader> jman074: I'm sure you can!
[18:30] <jman074> lordievader i am running a 64 bit system is it possible that firefox is 32 bit. i looked in the about tab and it doesn't say
[18:33] <lordievader> jman074: Firefox is probably 32bit, have a feeling it will allow mix-and-match with plugins in mind.
[18:33] <lordievader> Though I might be wrong.
[18:34] <jman074> so "if" i have 32 bit firefox and download 64 bit java it may or may not be compatable
[18:35] <lordievader> jman074: I think it will be compatible. Your OS is 64bit right?
[18:35] <jman074> roger
[18:35] <lordievader> jman074: One way to find out if it works, eh?
[19:58] <Kris_away> How do I get kickoff to go back with my mouse buttons? annoyying having to click all applications to go back
[20:03] <Novus> what is the minimum requirments for kubuntu?
[20:03] <Novus> hard drive space I mean
[20:04] <Novus> and also,.. I asume I can do persistant USB with kubuntu?
[20:05] <kbana> yes
[20:05] <Joupi> Novus, it dehe base systepends on the apps that you will install but t
[20:05] <lordievader> Novus: If you create the live-usb with the build-in Usb-Creator tool, yes.
[20:05] <Novus> you lost me,..
[20:06] <Novus> do I just install it like I would another hard drive?
[20:06] <Kris_away> There'sa tool to turn a live iso into a usb... unetbootn or something
[20:06] <lordievader> Novus: No, search in the kicker for "Usb-creator:
[20:07] <lordievader> Kris_away: Unetbootin is a different tool, Kubuntu has its own build-in
[20:07] <mandoguit> unetbootin      see pendrivelinux.com    for more information
[20:07] <Novus> ubnetbootin is not what I am looking for
[20:08] <lordievader> Novus: As I said, Kubuntu has its own build-in, it's different from Unetbootin.
[20:08] <Novus> right, that was for mando
[20:09] <mandoguit> well what are you looking for then?   you mentioned persistence.... unetbootin gives you that option and is also available either via linux or windows side.
[20:09] <Novus> LIVE USB STICK
[20:10] <mandoguit> that is a live usb stick
[20:10] <Novus> -.-
[20:10] <lordievader> Novus: mandoguit is right, Unetbootin does the same thing. However why download Unetbootin when Kubuntu has a tool build-in that does the same thing?
[20:10] <Novus> you can't make changes to the ubootin then save it and then on reboot expect them to stay as they where
[20:11] <mandoguit> yes you can that is what the persistence file is for
[20:11] <lordievader> Novus: You can specify persistence in Unetbootin too.
[20:11] <mandoguit> you however cannot (afaik) do kernel updates.
[20:12] <lordievader> mandoguit: I have a feeling the build-in tool will not do that either.
[20:12] <mandoguit> you can also just do a full install to the usb stick (if large enough)  which will allow full updating
[20:13] <mandoguit> lordievader:   never used the kde usb software.  have used most of the other ones though. :)
[20:13] <lordievader> mandoguit: Believe it is more a Ubuntu-thing than kde. But I might be wrong.
[20:13] <mandoguit> Novus:   for full install just treat the usb stick as you would a usb hard drive
[20:13] <kbana> or there is also www.linuxliveusb.com
[20:14] <Kris_away> There's distros that use KDE that made for live usb with persistance, although kubuntu works too
[20:14] <mandoguit> lordievader:   yes ubuntu related....
[20:22] <Kris_away> how do i unlock muon to change packages...
[20:23] <lordievader> Kris_away: What do you mean unlock?
[20:24] <Kris_away> in synaptic i'd be asked for my pasword, muon just says auth error
[20:25] <Kris_away> so i have to run muon as root? or "gtksudo" but for qt...
[20:25] <lordievader> Kris_away: Yes, that would be a workaround: kdesudo muon
[20:25] <lordievader> Kris_away: Report a bug against muon.
[20:26] <Kris_away> Do I need a launchpad account?
[20:26] <lordievader> Kris_away: Yes.
[20:28] <Kris_away> hmm, even running as kdesudo it says proper auth not provided...
[20:29] <lordievader> Kris_away: Does apt-get still work?
[20:30] <Kris_away> apt-get and synaptic both work
[20:30] <lordievader> Hmm.. does Muon keep a log, Kris_away?
[20:30] <Kris_away> I 'm running 13.04, updated 2 mins ago in term hoping that wold fix it, hmm
[20:31] <lordievader> Kris_away: I'll check if Muon works here.
[20:31] <Kris_away> The only thing I see in mesg is: QDBusConnection: session D-Bus connection created before QCoreApplication. Application may misbehave.
[20:31] <Kris_away> No other errors.
[20:32] <lordievader> Kris_away: Here it asks for a password and works fine.
[20:33] <Kris_away> strange... last I used ubuntu was LTS and it worked
[20:33] <mandoguit> Kris_away:    fwiw  13.04 related stuff should be quiried in  #ubuntu+1   afaik.     that said, the muon update manager also has some quirks that have shown up in the last few updates for raring.
[20:35] <Kris_away> I'm switiching from a local repo to the master canonical, it's about 22 hours more up to date.
[20:35] <mandoguit> Kris_away:    the problem I am experiencing with it right now is that most updates are automatically checked when muon is behaving normally but since the buglet has appeared none are checked and it won't allow them to be checked either.    for now I am commandlining my updates
[20:36] <Kris_away> apt-get is much faster than gui managers lol
[20:36] <Kris_away> Soo many packages these days
[20:37] <lordievader> Kris_away: I use apt-get here too. I don't like gui's in general.
[20:37] <Kris_away> oh wow, canada's main ubuntu mirror is not synced up very well for 13.04, some things are more than 1 version behind
[20:38] <Kris_away> I guess only the master canonical should be used for pre-release
[20:38] <Kris_away> Or, is there a list of mirrors that keep right on the edge?
[20:38]  * mandoguit starts checking his repo source list as he's in Canada too!
[20:39] <Kris_away> 77 upgraded changing from canada to canonical
[20:40] <mandoguit> was canada repo here too........gonna do an update now
[20:41] <lordievader> Run the dutch mirror here, I believe it is quite up to date, daily updates for Raring.
[20:41] <Kris_away> libreoffice, plasma, kde, grub, lots of stuff, doesn't mention muon though
[20:42] <lordievader> Kris_away: You might ask around in #kubuntu-devel they might like to hear your bug, improves the software after all.
[20:42] <mandoguit> lordievader:  daily updates on the canadian server too.....am suprise that it lags behind main though
[20:42] <Kris_away> mandoguit: How many packages did you have behind main?
[20:42] <mandoguit> still updating right now... will let you know
[20:45] <mandoguit> only about 10 or so.....  in BC here and did my upgrades this morning about 8am.   so really doesn't look as if there is any big difference at this end of things
[20:48] <mandoguit> ps I don't have libreoffice installed here so that also cuts down on # of updates too
[20:49] <Kris_away> libreoffice came with 13.04... kinda weird since kde has it's own suite
[20:49] <Kris_away> Although libreoffice is extremely popular
[20:50] <Guest53822> #ubuntu
[20:52] <mandoguit> Kris_away:   yes it came with mine too but I have no need for it so therefore removed it.  :)
[21:36] <Artakha> ok so i posted this in #kde already but figured it'd be more appropriate in here: basically my wireless connection is screwed up, windows can connect to it but kubuntu cannot
[21:36] <Artakha> it used to work but doesn't anymore, i piled up some info: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/66055976/wlaninfo.txt
[21:37] <Artakha> said kubuntu system has only been up for like a day now and the network connection broke
[21:38] <Artakha> the output kind of suggests it somehow got disabled
[21:38] <Artakha> when i log in, it waits for the network configuration but times it out after 2 minutes
[21:39] <Artakha> the network manager applet thing shows a blank widget with nothing but an unchecked "enable networking" checkbox where used to be proper connection info
[21:40] <Artakha> in the connection settings window only the vpn tab is enabled, wired and wireless tabs are both grayed out and i can't access them
[21:40] <Artakha> what could possibly be wrong here?
[21:48] <mandoguit> Artakha:   maybe try typing    rfkill list all   in a terminal to see if anything is blocked
[21:49] <Artakha> i'll go try that
[22:08] <Artakha> it seems to be soft blocke
[22:09] <Artakha> blocked, even
[22:13] <lordievader> Artakha: To unblock: sudo rfkill unblock wifi
[22:13] <Artakha> ah right
[22:13] <Artakha> let's try, then
[22:19] <roasted> hello!
[22:23] <Artakha> well, so it's no longer soft blocked
[22:23] <Artakha> however, it still is unable to configure the network
[22:24] <Artakha> nothing changed
[22:33] <mandoguit> Artakha:    ok make sure that nothing is blocking it and then typ    sudo ifconfig wlan0 up     and then try  iwconfig   and/or  ifconfig    etc       see if you pick up any local broadcasting wireless or get a network address
[22:34] <Artakha> alright
[22:55] <Kris_away> Anyone know how to toggle something tike "conference mode" in qassel so I can hide and show the leave/join messages?
[23:05] <mandoguit> Kris_away:   don't use quassel but you may want to check out the following  http://wiki.xkcd.com/irc/hide_join_part_messages    Quassel
[23:05] <mandoguit> Right click on the buffer -> Hide Events -> Joins, Parts, Quits...
[23:11] <Kris_away> mandoguit: THanks, didn't notice that... now only if I could find where spell check is
[23:44] <Artakha> beh, i cant figure how to make iwconfig enable the wlan0 interface
