Guest58634 | Gday, two noob questions. 1. How do can I download anoher word proccesor program, and from where? 2. How do I make the windows minimize to the toolbar? | 07:32 |
eos | hi there. My kde takes forever to start up. It seems that nepomuk and virtuoso are using the disk at start up for some 3 minutes. | 07:32 |
eos | anyone with the same problem? | 07:32 |
eos | Guest58634: another compared to what? to minimize click on the third button from the right. | 07:33 |
eos | Guest58634: in the top roght corner. | 07:33 |
Guest58634 | Compared to LibreOfficeWriter. The problem is, when I minimize, it dissapears, and I have to alt+tab back to it. It doesnt show on the bottom panel | 07:35 |
lordievader | eos: Do you use Nepomuk or Virtuoso? | 07:39 |
eos | lordievader: I activated nepomuk for the semantic search .... I do not understand why virtuosos starts. May it be opened by akonadi? | 07:40 |
lordievader | Guest58634: There seem to be only a few alternatives: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Linux_office_suite_software | 07:40 |
eos | Guest58634: it may be you do not have a task manager in your panel. have you checked? | 07:41 |
eos | lordievader: pstree shows that virtuoso was started by nepomuservices | 07:42 |
lordievader | eos: http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/kde/2011-March/009092.html | 07:42 |
eos | lordievader: well, that is not really a solution, because then the semantic desktop does not work anymore. | 07:43 |
lordievader | I know, it was just a bit of clarification of what virtuoso does ;) | 07:44 |
eos | lordievader: from what I rememebr from long time ago, virtuoso was the original databse udner nepomuk, but for some strange reason I had thought we had moved on to another db .... apologies. | 07:45 |
lordievader | To me the whole business of nepomuk/akonadi/virtuoso is a mess, it either crashes or hogs the cpu, thus making everything very slow. | 07:45 |
lordievader | eos: Is virtuoso hoggin the cpu at your pc? | 07:47 |
eos | lordievader: exactly. and if you sum it to the kwin / xorg cpu load .... mmmm .... it is a real pity because 4.10.2 is really great but you cannot wait 300 seconds to have your system up and running. | 07:47 |
lordievader | Supposedly someone is working on the login procedure. | 07:48 |
=== hunter is now known as Guest60435 | ||
valorie | this virtuoso cpu-hogging used to happen for me maybe 2 years or 18 months ago, but now, never | 07:51 |
eos | valorie: it is just always the same .... | 08:01 |
eos | valorie: unless maybe creating a completely new user accout, btu then you lose everything | 08:01 |
valorie | in general I do upgrades, not re-installs | 08:02 |
eos | valorie: oh ok .... | 08:03 |
valorie | when I do have problems, I move the old .kde folder, and then put things back until I have a problem | 08:03 |
valorie | then back out the problem line | 08:04 |
eos | valorie: it takes forever, this is a production machine | 08:04 |
valorie | I understand | 08:04 |
valorie | Just stating my experience | 08:04 |
eos | valorie: I think you are doing the right thing, it is more complicated when you have a production machine | 08:05 |
valorie | eos, agreed | 08:06 |
valorie | otoh, the nepomuk maintainer is amazing, and very helpful | 08:07 |
valorie | it depends on whether or not you want to continue to use kubuntu on your production machine, I guess | 08:08 |
eos | valorie: I really do not know how to solve it .... I will try contacting him. He is around here, or on the dev channel? | 08:08 |
valorie | looking at the nicklist | 08:08 |
eos | valorie: well, it has worked well .... apart this issue and the kwin / xorg issue .... | 08:08 |
valorie | he goes by vhanda | 08:08 |
eos | valorie: he is no her enow, but I was asking whether he normally hangs out her eor in the dev | 08:09 |
valorie | kwin maintainer is mgraesslin | 08:09 |
valorie | I don't see either | 08:09 |
valorie | more likely to see them in #kde-devel | 08:09 |
valorie | both of then | 08:09 |
valorie | m | 08:10 |
valorie | this is a KDE issue, not a Kubuntu issue | 08:10 |
eos | valorie: are you sure? does it happen in all distributions or only in kubuntu? The xorg / kwin does not seem to happen on all of them .... | 08:11 |
valorie | that I don't know for sure | 08:11 |
valorie | I'm just saying that nepomuk=vhanda, and kwin=mgraesslin | 08:12 |
eos | valorie: thanks I will try .... by the way what dm ar eyou using, lightdm or kdm? | 08:13 |
valorie | lightdm I believe | 08:13 |
eos | valorie: I was wondering whether it could be the dm .... | 08:14 |
eos | valorie: oh! what graphic card / driver do you use? | 08:15 |
valorie | Sysinfo for 'valorie-HP-Pavilion-dv7-Notebook-PC': Linux 3.5.0-18-generic running KDE Development Platform 4.10.2, CPU: AMD Phenom II P960 Quad-Core at 800 MHz (3591 bogomips), HD: 324/582GB, RAM: 5544/5714MB, 240 proc's, 9.41h up | 08:15 |
valorie | driver -- not sure | 08:15 |
valorie | whatever was suggested | 08:16 |
valorie | I generally go with the defaults unless there is a reason to do otherwise | 08:16 |
valorie | I don't like to futz | 08:16 |
eos | valorie: that is a quite a processor .... but I meant graphic card | 08:16 |
valorie | my computer is a tool | 08:17 |
valorie | hmm, I was hoping sysinfo would list that | 08:17 |
valorie | how do I list that in the cli? | 08:17 |
eos | valorie: lspci | grep -i vga | 08:17 |
eos | valorie: yes, same for us, but to run models .... if it is hogged up, then the models do not run | 08:18 |

=== BTCOxygen|1 is now known as BTCOxygen | ||
aboudreault | BluesKaj, no, they are too cheap for that. | 16:50 |
aboudreault | I have also tried the headphone with another laptop and they are fine. | 16:51 |
BluesKaj | aboudreault, a laptop? | 16:51 |
aboudreault | yes. | 16:51 |
aboudreault | it was fine for years... not sure what's the problem now | 16:51 |
BluesKaj | use the line out ? | 16:52 |
aboudreault | sorry, what do you mean? what is the line out? | 16:53 |
ovidiu-florin | lordievader: you did? | 16:54 |
ovidiu-florin | sorry I don't remember | 16:55 |
BluesKaj | well ,some laptops have an audio line ot where a separate sound system can be connected , sometimes this doubles as a hp out | 16:55 |
aboudreault | BluesKaj, ah. that.. nah the other line out never worked. I always used the same. | 16:56 |
RYDeN | im testing kubuntu 12.10 for a very first time | 16:57 |
RYDeN | and it's amazing | 16:57 |
BluesKaj | aboudreault, did you check alsamixer F5 , maybe the line out is muted or turned ...it really should work | 16:58 |
BluesKaj | or turned down | 16:58 |
aboudreault | i hear something, so it's not muted. in alsamixer.. I see Master, Headphone, Headphone 1 set to 100 | 16:59 |
aboudreault | strange. | 17:00 |
BluesKaj | what about kmix in the panel , is it turned up too ? | 17:02 |
aboudreault | yes. | 17:03 |
aboudreault | I guess I'll have to investigate deeper soon. | 17:03 |
ovidiu-florin | aboudreault: If you wont be able to fix this, try this workaround: install the veromix widget and in it's settings you'll have volume. you can set the maximum to be 200 or 300. and increase the volume using this widget | 17:04 |
ovidiu-florin | you can drag it in the panel | 17:04 |
aboudreault | ok thanks for mentionning. | 17:05 |
BluesKaj | or aboudreault if you have pavucontrol installed , check the volume there | 17:07 |
aboudreault | will install it. | 17:07 |
BluesKaj | forgot to mention | 17:07 |
=== manu is now known as Guest41152 | ||
ovidiu-florin | aboudreault: I use that for laptops with weak speakers | 17:11 |

ovidiu-florin | aboudreault: go to the pulse audio tab | 17:16 |
ovidiu-florin | and set max volume value to 200 | 17:16 |
aboudreault | the sound is really crappy if I do that. | 17:16 |
aboudreault | there must be something else.... will re-test my headphone to be sure with another device | 17:17 |
ovidiu-florin | aboudreault: that means that there is something else | 17:17 |
BluesKaj | maybe the HPs are cooked | 17:17 |

kardbored | well, i guess my main area of questoin is: do people typically search and join channels on known networks, or do users typically know of secret servers and channels which they join? or both? | 17:31 |

zzillezz | hello, is there any reason why certain fonts look bigger (eg. firefox) than the rest of my kde system ? i chose a smaller font in 'configure my computer > application appearance' | 18:15 |
drostie | zzillezz: gtk applications like Firefox don't obey the same parameters as the Qt apps, I think. | 18:18 |
BluesKaj | zzillezz, you can set your fonts in firefox>edit>preferences>content | 18:19 |
zzillezz | drostie: not on my system :( | 18:19 |
zzillezz | ok, i'll have a look BluesKaj | 18:19 |
roney | zzillezz: There's any entry in System Settings > Appearance for gtk apps. | 18:20 |
NJL | as of the last firefox update my context menu is no longer contextual. I shows every item all the time. Is this a known issue? | 18:22 |
BluesKaj | drostie, zzillezzif you make the gtk font settings in system settings the same as the system fonts , it should work afaik | 18:23 |
drostie | BluesKaj: There's something in general missing for GTK though. Like, the GTK application associations seem to be totally different from the Qt ones. It's why I am very reluctant to have Wine on my KDE computer; the package management system installs Wine Notepad as a default viewer for all sorts of stuff and then every once in a while Firefox opens something in Wine Notepad. :x | 18:24 |
drostie | I don't know what it is that's missing, but it just seems like some open desktop thing is not shared between the two, if that makes sense. | 18:25 |
BluesKaj | well , FF here works with the gtk fonts and it could be because all fonts are the same in system settings, gtk and FF content | 18:27 |
BluesKaj | drostie,^ | 18:27 |
zzillezz | hmm, when i change the fonts in the firefox settings, nothing seems to change .. even after restarting the browser | 18:29 |

genii-around | And then you go to System Settings... Application Appearance.. GTK and set it from there | 18:30 |
zzillezz | i can't find the gtk option in application appearance ... | 18:31 |
genii-around | zzillezz: You need the qtcurve stuff installed first | 18:31 |
BluesKaj | zzillezz, which kubuntu version? | 18:32 |
zzillezz | 13.04 beta 2 | 18:32 |
BluesKaj | it should show up in the options list on the left in systems settings >application appearance | 18:33 |

genii-around | A glance at http://amarok.community.kde.org/Media_Device:IPod indicates there are many variables depending on their firmware versions for instance | 20:43 |
ArthurGordon | i don't mount it by myself. ipod is mounted automatically by amarok or by kde | 20:43 |
