AethysiusIs 156 F too hot for a processor?04:16
tsimpsonAethysius: that's around 70C, I wouldn't be concerned until it starts to get around 80-90C ~180F05:01
tsimpsonmost systems will automatically shut down if the temperature gets dangerous, mine is apparently set to do that at 100C05:02
AethysiusReally?05:06
AethysiusWhat about GPUs and mobos?05:07
tsimpsonthey're similar05:07
tsimpsoncomputers can handle rather high internal temperatures, as long as it's not for too long (hours) and they have a chance to cool off05:08
tsimpsonC/GPU chips will be the most sensitive and will probably cut-off somewhere above 100C, the rest of the system can probably take 30-50C more without approaching danger point05:10
tsimpsonand most (modern) systems have built-in trip points to trigger an emergency shutdown before then05:11

AethysiusHow do I make myself root in the GUI?05:30
valoriewhere in the gui, Aethysius?05:30
Unit193!kdesu05:31
ubottuIn KDE use « kdesudo <program> »  to run graphical applications with root privileges when you have to. Never just use "sudo"! | See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to find out why.05:31
valoriein general you can use kdesudo to run a gui application05:31
valoriebut most guis where you need to be root will present you with a dialog asking for your password05:31
lordievaderAethysius: What do you need to run as root?05:33

BluesKaj'Morning all11:32
FlowRiserBluesKaj, mornin`11:33
BluesKajhey FlowRiser11:33
FlowRiserBluesKaj, i`m having some problems with kde behaving properly with unity also installed11:34
FlowRisersometimes, the desktop background changes to the one unity has O.o11:34
BluesKajwhat kind of problems , FlowRiser?11:35
FlowRiserAnd it happens at random moments11:35
BluesKajwhat about the panel etc11:35
BluesKajjust the baqckground , like wallpaper ?11:36
FlowRiseryes11:36
BluesKajyou might have the unity screensaver enabled in kde11:37
=== anton___ is now known as Guest4696
FlowRiserBluesKaj, ohhh, have not thought of that .... indeed, i have the unity screensaver enabled in kde; That explains lot of weird things happening on my installation xD11:38
AceKingCan someone help me with a choppy sound problem? I'm running 13.04 64 bit. Everytime I play something with sound, it's choppy, and pops from low to loud11:52
FlowRiserAceKing, did you try updating your kernel ? mine is 3.8.0-25-generic11:56
AceKingFlowRiser: I just installed, and did all updates11:57
FlowRiserAceKing, are you running pulseaudio ? if so, have you tried messing with its properties in the default manager ?12:00
AceKingFlowRiser: I haven't touched anything yet. I'm running it from a fresh install12:00
FlowRiserAceKing, i suggest before doing anything else that you install the pulseaudio manager and try setting the server up so that your primary device is the one you want12:02
FlowRiserAceKing, if that does not work, then you have a driver issue12:02
AceKingFlowRiser: Will do.. Do I need to uninstall anything before I install pulseaudio manager?12:03
FlowRiserAceKing, no, it should work out of the box12:05
AceKingFlowRiser: I see a couple to choose from in the Software Center... pulseaudio volume control, and pulseaudio preferences. Which one do I install?12:06
AceKingFlowRiser: I just went into "Package Manager" and found it12:08
AceKingFlowRiser: OK, it's installed. Do I need to restart?12:10
AceKingFlowRiser: I am going to restart and test it. Thank you for your help12:12

lordievaderGood afternoon.14:31
kristjanis there any video player for kubuntu where is subtitle download option?14:37
geniikristjan: You want to download the subtitle files separately?14:39
kristjani mean when i start movie, it can find subtitles for the movie14:40
geniikristjan: Which player are you currently using for this?14:41
kristjansmplayer14:42
kristjani think it searches subtitles only from opensubtitles.org14:43
kristjanis there any way i can add sites?14:44
geniikristjan: Apologies on lag, work is requiring much of my time right now.14:48
kristjanno problem at all14:49
BluesKajkristjan, most players need a local file for subtitles ., vlc will use one if you find one and point vlc to it's path14:55
OerHeksAnd the name of the subtitle must match the movie, AFAIK14:57
FOADCorrect.14:58
BluesKajor yeah , usually subs are included and can be enabled or disabled in vlc in the dialog that comes up just by a right click on the vlc screen14:59
workingcats(s)mplayer will use an appropriately named file automatically i think14:59
BluesKajOerHeks,^14:59
workingcatsdidnt realise it has a feature to auto-search for ones from the net14:59
BluesKajcould never find a version of mplayer that fits my tv screen15:01
BluesKajincluding mplayer itself15:01
=== gilbert_ is now known as goodtime
kristjanwhen u start movie in smplayer, u can klick subtitles meny and there is find sbtitles from opensubtitles. org. That is very convenient.15:07
kristjanmy question is can i add other sites to search subtitles from15:07
kristjanor is there any other player wih similar option15:08

zero_coderhello16:03
SonikkuAmericazero_coder: Hey!16:03
zero_coderhow can I set shortcut key16:03
zero_coderhi SonikkuAmerica16:03
zero_coderSonikkuAmerica  its usually dead16:03
SonikkuAmericaHead for System Settings and check inside the Keyboard section.16:03
zero_coderSonikkuAmerica : Kubuntu is totally cool . just started using today :)16:04
SonikkuAmerica:) I've used it in the past; now I use Ubuntu GNOME, but I know a lot about the other DEs.16:04
zero_coderi have been using unity16:04
zero_coderbut its totally unproductive .maybe u can use it for tablets16:05
zero_coderSonikkuAmerica : I am in keyboard section16:05
zero_coderwhat next16:05
SonikkuAmericaIs there a "Keyboard Shortcuts" item in the menu on the left?16:05
zero_codernpoe16:06
zero_codernope16:06
BluesKajkristjan, play the video , right click on the screen in vlc , then the dialog should show subtitles . click on that , openfile then put the path in the addressbar at top.16:06
zero_coderSonikkuAmerica : there is something else called shortcuts and gestures16:06
zero_coderhow to create a new one?16:08
SonikkuAmericaOh crap... someone bail me out!16:08
SonikkuAmericaOK. Make sure "Plasma Desktop Shell" is selected from the drop-down menu, then hit "Add..." or click the + sign. (I forgot which.)16:10
zero_coderSonikkuAmerica : what is the command for launching terminal ?16:11
SonikkuAmericazero_coder: Usually Ctrl+Alt+T16:11
BluesKajme doesn't go near the shortcuts and gestures option , looks difficult to understand for some who almost failed 9th grade typing class :)16:11
zero_coderi mean the command not shortcut16:11
zero_coderi am trying to set it16:11
zero_coderI passed out of high school , still its difficult BluesKaj16:12
SonikkuAmericaBluesKaj: LOL!16:12
zero_coderSonikkuAmerica : what to do?16:13
SonikkuAmericazero_coder: Or hit Alt+F2 and type "konsole" and hit ETNER16:14
zero_coderSonikkuAmerica : done16:14
zero_coderits set16:14
zero_coderSonikkuAmerica : thank you16:16
SonikkuAmericaYou're welcome.16:17

SonikkuAmerica!ot | zero_coder16:21
ubottuzero_coder: #kubuntu is the official Kubuntu support channel, for all Kubuntu-related support questions. Please use #kubuntu-offtopic for general chatter. Thanks!16:21
zero_codersorry.16:23
zero_coderi didn't mean to offend anythin16:23
SonikkuAmericazero_coder: Oh no, just part of decorum. In other Linux distro channels, it's all jumbled as people are getting support and conversing at once. Not in Debian or Ubuntu,16:25

mbnoimiI tried to add a new task (http://img21.imageshack.us/img21/3526/lyxi.jpg) to Task Scheduler but it didn't run when the time in came... that's wrong? do I configured it wrong?17:44
geniimbnoimi: Does:  sudo ls /var/spool/cron/crontabs/       show a file there with the name of the user ?18:00
mbnoimigenii: is shows my user name18:00
geniimbnoimi: Please use a pastebin to show the result of:   grep vlc /var/log/auth.log18:01
geniiIf no result for the command, let us know that too.18:02
mbnoimigenii: no need to pastebin... it shows nothing!18:02
geniiOK.18:02
geniimbnoimi: What is result of: crontab -l18:06
mbnoimigenii: http://pastebin.com/qF0ep4g918:13
geniimbnoimi: OK, that looks fine. I would suggest to put the full path for vlc in the Task Scheduler, like: /usr/bin/vlc     ...instead of just vlc18:15
mbnoimigenii: I did that... I may need to wait to see what if this will work within the coming 3min18:17
* genii makes more coffee and settles in18:17

=== gilbert__ is now known as goodtime
mbnoimigenii: didn't work :(18:20

mbnoimigenii: by the way, recollindex works fine at Sunday but I didn't add it manually, Recoll add it through its configurations18:23
geniiHm.18:26
mbnoimigenii: Do you've any idea in your mind?18:28
geniimbnoimi: Nothing comes immediately to mind, unfortunately.18:29
mbnoimigenii: Thanks... I'll pass my question to the main stream. Guys I need your help18:29
geniimbnoimi: http://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=225&t=108385  mentions that cron needs to be told how to run graphical applications, they refer a user there to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CronHowto#GUI_Applications  where the basic method seems to be to add the display of your X server in the crontab file.18:36
mbnoimigenii: Strange!18:37
geniiYes, you'd think the Task Scheduler would automatically make those type of entries18:39
mbnoimigenii: Damn I could run my tasks by gnome-schedule while KDE Task Scheduler couldn't... see the new option of X Application http://img191.imageshack.us/img191/8869/iwxi.jpg18:54
mbnoimigenii: I think this is weak point. I've to tell KDE guys about it18:56
geniimbnoimi: This seems to me be a bug with Task Scheduler18:56
genii( or at least an omission not to have similar functionality as the gnome-schedule )18:57

christopherhello. I just installed version 11 so I can install a working catalyst driver. Now GCC is undetectable even though software manger says it is. I als install the archive version 3.4 and all associated packages... still gcc -help  returns instructions for apt get (which do not work).23:25
christopher'ran into a stray statment in a possbly unrelaed forum post about gcc needing to be the same version that the kernel was compiled with.23:26
christopherI'm also confused because this version of 11.04 has the latest desktop with all the bells and whistles, but running uname confirms that it's the Kernel from version 11.0423:27
christopherwhy would gcc be a ghost like this?23:28
apacheloggervalorie: you'll want to catch afiestas, he knows all about screen stuff23:29
apacheloggerchristopher: 11.04?23:30
apacheloggerI am reasonable certain that is not supported anymore23:30
valorieapachelogger: thank you23:32
christopherit isn't but I should be able to install an old version?23:32
valorierenaming .kde did the trick, but I'll be da**ed if I know why23:32
christopherthe thing is niether is my hardware as a result23:32
apacheloggervalorie: possibly the config is called kscreenrc now23:32
christopherThis is the only know fix I know of for the fglrx incompatibility with new kernels23:34
apacheloggerwhat incompatibility? fglrx is supported on all supported kubuntu versions.23:35
christopher..fresh install gcc... gone? That's the "tool" that catalyst "can't find" now that I've "fixed" the genreic kernal files "tools"... "being missing"23:35

christopherdoesn't work23:36

apachelogger11.04 is not on archive.ubuntu.com, neither will it be on mirrors23:38
apacheloggeruse a supported release.23:38
christopherI found gcc 3.4 debs and installed them all "successfully" still no gcc responding in the terminal23:39
apacheloggerinstalling random debs is not advised btw23:39
christopherwell I just need my graphics card to work.23:40
