MDgdHey guys10:38
MDgdQuick question, does anyone know of a way to restrict access to the system's resources per process?10:38
MDgdLike, limiting the available processor's capacities so that a process can never use more than 90% of a CPU.10:39
MDgdThere's no reason for a 12% gain in speed when the tradeoff is the system locks up10:39
hateballMDgd: I think you might be able to use ulimit to achieve what you want10:59
hateballMDgd: I don't know the proper syntax tho10:59
MDgdhateball, thanks for the pointer. I'll look into it10:59
hateballMDgd:Perhaps you can set similar options using sysctl as well, not sure11:00
MDgdI found a page detailing both. It seems to address CPU time, though not load.11:01
MDgdStill it's a step forward if that means any process that hangs the PC is killed11:02

d-eggby god, the distribution upgrade stops to ask me for configuration changes?  Can't that be done afterwards?13:41
BluesKajd-egg, what configuration changes ?13:43
d-eggWould that be gone when I install 'unattended-upgrades'?13:43
d-eggBluesKaj: kismet13:43
d-eggand something about gnome defaults13:44
d-eggso far13:44
BluesKajdo you have ppas in your sources13:44
d-eggBluesKaj: yes, two small ones I believe and the kde one is off.13:44
BluesKajwhat's the default option ?13:45
d-eggthe default option?13:45
d-eggah another one. runsvdir13:46
mpratdoes anyone here use Yakuake? is there anything wrong with downloading it from the software center rather than installing it manually?13:47
BluesKajdoes it give any choices to reject , add , or accept defaults?13:47
BluesKajthe default is usually to accept and hit enter13:47
d-eggI get a gui with two buttons Keep/Replace, but no option for upcoming ones13:48
=== dziegler is now known as dziegler_off
BluesKajmprat, there's no need to download it if t's already installed13:48
mpratsorry, my question was more whether the software center automatically pulled the newest versions13:49
BluesKajd-egg, have you made any changes in the sudoer file for example , then keep your settings13:49
BluesKajmprat, not the newest , just the most stable newest13:50
BluesKajnewest isn't always best13:51
mpratBluesKaj: that's a good point =). Thanks!13:51
d-eggBluesKaj: That might be.  I guess otherwise it wouldn't ask.  I guess my question is if there is a way to defer those dialoges to the end of the upgrade13:51
BluesKajd-egg, dunno never tried that , it usually goes by very quickly13:53
d-eggWell, it's probably taking 2-3 hours. I mean a distribution upgrade13:53
BluesKajthe only halt in the install procedure is those non-default settings I mentioned above13:54
BluesKajd-egg, upgradiong to ?13:54
infridre13:54
d-eggBluesKaj: 13.0413:55
BluesKajd-egg, right ..depends on your method ...over the internet can take a while depending on your internet connection13:56
d-eggBluesKaj: it is installing not downloading13:56
d-eggDid no one ever complain about this so far?  Is that a totally new problem?!13:57
BluesKajd-egg, well , i can say i haven't seen it before ... I meant installing over the internet not downloading13:59

asraniel_hi. i have a serious problem. libreoffice writer is randomly crashing. I have no idea how to solve this (kubuntu 13.04). is there a way to install openoffice? from what i remember it didn't crash16:03
murthyasraniel_: how much ram do you have?16:06
asraniel_4 GB16:06
murthyasraniel_: swap enabled?16:07
asraniel_yes, about 4 gb swap space16:07
murthyasraniel_: have you tried starting libree office from the terminal and check if there was any error messages?16:08
murthygoing for a restart brb16:14
asraniel_there where no error messages, problem is its random and i might have to wait an hour16:14
asraniel_for the crash to come16:14
asraniel_murthy: i found a possible cause for the bug16:23
asraniel_some people suggested it might be because of the intel gpu16:24
asraniel_to fix it, one has to disable anti aliasing in libreoffice16:24
murthyasraniel_: try that16:24
murthyasraniel_: do you have the crash log?16:24
asraniel_yes i did. the problem is on my gfs computer, so i'll have to wait and see if it worked16:25
asraniel_no.. i couldn't find any16:25
asraniel_for future reference you know where one might be? i also disable java, but it crashed at least once after that16:25
murthyasraniel_: a window will popup when a crash occurs , it will get you the crash log16:26
murthyasraniel_: check back here if the solution doesn't work16:26
asraniel_that window does not popup on every crash. perhaps 1 in 316:26
murthyasraniel_: do you have chromium installed?16:27
murthyasraniel_:  i mean the browser?16:27
asraniel_yes16:27
sebastianohi, do you know of a quick way to change the album tag of an mp3 file? so far I do it with amarok...16:27
murthyasraniel_:  can you check if soundcloud works for you?16:28
asraniel_link?16:28
murthyasraniel_: try playing this and see if it works in chromium16:29
murthyasraniel_: https://soundcloud.com/andrewbird/sets/andrew-bird-116:29
asraniel_murthy: does not work16:30
murthyasraniel_: ok thanks, the chromium bug is confirm16:30
murthyheh rekonq works fine with soundcloud, may be ubuntu should use rekonq as the default browser of 13.1016:32
asraniel_i wouldnt want to miss my chromium, simply to sync my bookmarks easily with chrome on my phone16:33
murthyasraniel_: bookmark sync in chrome/chromium is the best16:34
ahoneybunmurthy: for me FF is faster then rekonq16:35
murthyahoneybun: with FF everything works fine, but fat UI16:37
BluesKajrekonq still has too many issues with important sites like banks and other financial institutions16:37
ahoneybunBluesKaj: I would not log into a bank with it16:37
murthyahoneybun: BluesKaj can we take this to offtopic ?16:38
BluesKajchromium refuses to integrate all of it;s GUI with gtk settings16:38
ahoneybunmurthy: true16:38
BluesKajrekonq is a legit topic for this chat ...even tho it's hopeless16:39
ahoneybunlordievader: still there/16:39
ahoneybunBluesKaj: I would not say hopeless16:39
BluesKajit is for my purposes16:40
murthyBluesKaj: I am afraid to do online transactions using rekonq16:40
apacheloggerbikeshed is not a legit topic for this channel btw16:40

jayseeI have a dual monitor setup and have been playing around with kde a bit. One thing i liked about unity is that i had the global menu at the top of whatever screen i was using the app on. So naturally I tried to set the same idea in kde, but seem to have run into a roadblock. It seems only the first window menubar widget actually picks up on whatever application is running, with the other just sitting with it's generic file -> close. So I was w20:32
jayseeondering, is it possible to have both of those pick up on my current app? Screenshot of issue: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/51261980/Snapshots/Stack%20Overflow/snapshot1.png20:32
