lfainDo anybody experience Thunderbird and Firefox freezing after upgrade to v.13.04?11:06
yossarianukifain: no  - have you tried using a clean firefox profile ?11:07
lfainno. the interesting thing is that both Thunderbird and Firfox are stuck at the same moment11:10
invariantlfain, that's a well known issue.11:11
invariantlfain, it is likely not related to your specific upgrade.11:11
invariantlfain, there is a library which is used by both applications.11:11
invariantlfain, if that library is stuck, both applications are stuck.11:12
invariantlfain, Google should know the answer and if not you can always report a bug, but I am sure it has been reported before.11:12
lfainI didn't find such issue reported in Google. Some people complained that Thunderbird is frozen and CPU consumtion is high. In my case the CPU consumption is 0%11:14
invariantlfain, when you run 13.04 you are expected to know what you are doing.11:16
invariantlfain, so, clearly someone messed up that library.11:16
invariantlfain, but for a fix you would have to either wait or become an expert at debugging.11:16
invariantlfain, just run 12.04 if you want to be able to do some work.11:17

FlowRiserhey guys, i'm having a bit of a problem when trying to install kubuntu 13.04; I always get a fatal error regarding a certain grub-dummy package; I mention that i have a UEFI laptop (Asus K55VD)13:06
=== cam_ is now known as Guest86220
BluesKajrickSalsa, if it's a clean install, have you installed the recommended driver in kmenu>apps>system>additional drivers?13:07
BluesKaj!uefi13:07
ubottuUEFI is a specification that defines a software interface between an operating system and platform firmware, it is meant as a replacement for the BIOS. For information on how to set up and install Ubuntu and its derivatives on UEFI machines please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI13:07
BluesKajFlowRiser,^13:08
FlowRiserBluesKaj: i don't think it's related to any of that, the "Try Kubuntu" option works just fine13:08
FlowRiseri disabled secure boot and SRT13:08
FlowRiserthe same options i used when i installed Kubuntu 12.10 x6413:09
BluesKajFlowRiser, do you still have the 12.10 install ? If so an alternative would be to upgrade to 13.04 over the 'net in the terminal , sudo do-release-upgrade , but make sure all your 12.10 packages are updated and aupgraded first as well as commenting any ppas in the sources.list13:12
FlowRiserBluesKaj: sadly no, i reformated the hdd in order to try a clean install13:13
BluesKajok , still got the live media usb/cd ?13:13
FlowRiserBluesKaj: No, i only have one usb i can use13:14
BluesKajI assume 13.04 is installed and the grub error is happening at boot ?13:16
=== DouglasKAway is now known as DouglasK
BluesKajoh , fails to install , sorry , that's an odd one13:17
FlowRiserBluesKaj: actually, it happens during the installation; As far as I can tell, it does indeed install it properly (looking at the partitions created from my previous install attempts) but it's just the grub that does not install properly13:18
user__why konqueror konq and application manager crashes many times in kubuntu?13:18
user__and browsers is the weak part in kubuntu13:18
FlowRiserBluesKaj: i'll try installing grub manually13:23
rickSalsaBluesKaj it's an upgrade13:23
BluesKajFlowRiser, in that case use your libe media to reinstall grub13:23
rickSalsaand my card is intel13:23
BluesKajlivemedia13:23
rickSalsaand no drives show up in the app for proprietary drivers13:24
rickSalsadrivers*13:24
BluesKajrickSalsa, make sure you have kubuntu-restricted-extras installed13:25
rickSalsaBluesKaj: i found a workaround, it seems that in kde 4.10 there's a new app or widget to configure the screen settings, and that is not properly loaded from System Settings, I was however, able to load it from the kmenu and solve my problem13:40
BluesKajwidget rickSalsa , what's it called , this would be good to know for future reference13:41
BluesKaj?13:41
rickSalsai dont know if its a widget or not, but when I before configured my resolutions from systemsettings, i can no longer do it from there, instead I searched for scree and an app called display configuration showed up13:46
BluesKajrickSalsa, think i found it , quick display configuration widget13:46
BluesKajit shows the same page display and monitor , in system settings , rickSalsa13:48
BluesKajas in13:48
rickSalsaah yes13:51
rickSalsait appears now here too13:51
rickSalsai think launching it manually fixed the problem with system settings13:52
rickSalsastill quite buggy on my side, because i have 2 monitors, and in 1 of the monitors it doesn't show the options clearly13:52
rickSalsai still don't understand how I can disable one of the monitors as I could before13:54
rickSalsaok, found it13:55
rickSalsahow to do it13:55
BluesKajwish I could help , I just use my TV , no dual monitors ,just one large one13:57
rickSalsathanks for all the help14:02
samskiterhi single clicking the taskbar in google chrome causes the window to maximize or restore (ie toggles between them). this should be a double click. any idea how to fix?14:06

zacarias1Hi. If I want to make a clean install of my system (say, to upgrade from 12.04 to 13.04), what's the best way to backup my applications so that I don't have to download them all again and so that I don't forget important little apps?15:16
genii-aroundzacarias1: Basically:  sudo dpkg --get-selections > selections    will make a file "selections" with current list of installed things. then on fresh box, sudo dpkg --set-selections < selections && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get -u dselect-upgrade       will reinstall all the same ones. You probably also want to save what's in the /etc directory someplace also since it contains all the specific settings for the apps. You'll still have to15:21
genii-arounddownload them from the repositories again because the versions from 12.04 to 13.04 are different anyhow.15:21
