[00:30] <Doyle_> Hey, is there a way to connect to powershell from linux?
[03:09] <ikhwan_cupu> haloo
[03:10] <ikhwan_cupu> my acer laptop use ubuntu 12.10....the bluetooth always ON & i cant to off
[04:16] <Aethysius> Is 156 F too hot for a processor?
[05:01] <tsimpson> Aethysius: that's around 70C, I wouldn't be concerned until it starts to get around 80-90C ~180F
[05:02] <tsimpson> most systems will automatically shut down if the temperature gets dangerous, mine is apparently set to do that at 100C
[05:06] <Aethysius> Really?
[05:07] <Aethysius> What about GPUs and mobos?
[05:07] <tsimpson> they're similar
[05:08] <tsimpson> computers can handle rather high internal temperatures, as long as it's not for too long (hours) and they have a chance to cool off
[05:10] <tsimpson> C/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 point
[05:11] <tsimpson> and most (modern) systems have built-in trip points to trigger an emergency shutdown before then
[05:13] <Aethysius> How do I make myself root in the GUI?
[05:30] <Aethysius> How do I make myself root in the GUI?
[05:30] <valorie> where in the gui, Aethysius?
[05:31] <Unit193> !kdesu
[05:31] <valorie> in general you can use kdesudo to run a gui application
[05:31] <valorie> but most guis where you need to be root will present you with a dialog asking for your password
[05:33] <lordievader> Aethysius: What do you need to run as root?
[05:50] <Aethysius> Thanks, y'all.
[10:48] <Guest39910> hello
[10:49] <Guest39910> hello
[10:52] <emil_> Auuu :(
[11:32] <BluesKaj> 'Morning all
[11:33] <FlowRiser> BluesKaj, mornin`
[11:33] <BluesKaj> hey FlowRiser
[11:34] <FlowRiser> BluesKaj, i`m having some problems with kde behaving properly with unity also installed
[11:34] <FlowRiser> sometimes, the desktop background changes to the one unity has O.o
[11:35] <BluesKaj> what kind of problems , FlowRiser?
[11:35] <FlowRiser> And it happens at random moments
[11:35] <BluesKaj> what about the panel etc
[11:36] <BluesKaj> just the baqckground , like wallpaper ?
[11:36] <FlowRiser> yes
[11:37] <BluesKaj> you might have the unity screensaver enabled in kde
[11:38] <FlowRiser> BluesKaj, 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 xD
[11:52] <AceKing> Can 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 loud
[11:56] <FlowRiser> AceKing, did you try updating your kernel ? mine is 3.8.0-25-generic
[11:57] <AceKing> FlowRiser: I just installed, and did all updates
[12:00] <FlowRiser> AceKing, are you running pulseaudio ? if so, have you tried messing with its properties in the default manager ?
[12:00] <AceKing> FlowRiser: I haven't touched anything yet. I'm running it from a fresh install
[12:02] <FlowRiser> AceKing, 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 want
[12:02] <FlowRiser> AceKing, if that does not work, then you have a driver issue
[12:03] <AceKing> FlowRiser: Will do.. Do I need to uninstall anything before I install pulseaudio manager?
[12:05] <FlowRiser> AceKing, no, it should work out of the box
[12:06] <AceKing> FlowRiser: I see a couple to choose from in the Software Center... pulseaudio volume control, and pulseaudio preferences. Which one do I install?
[12:08] <AceKing> FlowRiser: I just went into "Package Manager" and found it
[12:10] <AceKing> FlowRiser: OK, it's installed. Do I need to restart?
[12:12] <AceKing> FlowRiser: I am going to restart and test it. Thank you for your help
[14:31] <lordievader> Good afternoon.
[14:37] <kristjan> is there any video player for kubuntu where is subtitle download option?
[14:39] <genii> kristjan: You want to download the subtitle files separately?
[14:40] <kristjan> i mean when i start movie, it can find subtitles for the movie
[14:41] <genii> kristjan: Which player are you currently using for this?
[14:42] <kristjan> smplayer
[14:43] <kristjan> i think it searches subtitles only from opensubtitles.org
[14:44] <kristjan> is there any way i can add sites?
[14:48] <genii> kristjan: Apologies on lag, work is requiring much of my time right now.
[14:49] <kristjan> no problem at all
[14:55] <BluesKaj> kristjan, most players need a local file for subtitles ., vlc will use one if you find one and point vlc to it's path
[14:57] <OerHeks> And the name of the subtitle must match the movie, AFAIK
[14:58] <FOAD> Correct.
[14:59] <BluesKaj> or 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 screen
[14:59] <workingcats> (s)mplayer will use an appropriately named file automatically i think
[14:59] <BluesKaj> OerHeks,^
[14:59] <workingcats> didnt realise it has a feature to auto-search for ones from the net
[15:01] <BluesKaj> could never find a version of mplayer that fits my tv screen
[15:01] <BluesKaj> including mplayer itself
[15:07] <kristjan> when u start movie in smplayer, u can klick subtitles meny and there is find sbtitles from opensubtitles. org. That is very convenient.
[15:07] <kristjan> my question is can i add other sites to search subtitles from
[15:08] <kristjan> or is there any other player wih similar option
[15:17] <OerHeks> kristjan, did you find VLsub ? http://www.webupd8.org/2012/02/vlsub-vlc-extension-to-search-and.html
[15:46] <kristjan> OerHeks where is the vlc /lua/extensions path in my computer ?
[15:46] <kristjan> sorry im newbe
[15:48] <kristjan> how can i hide join and quit messeges from this chat window?
[15:48] <kristjan> im useing quassel irc
[15:49] <OerHeks> It is not yet, you have to make that folder yourself like the page shows you >> mkdir -p ~/.local/share/vlc/lua/extensions
[15:49] <kristjan> ok
[15:49] <OerHeks> it is hidden, press alt + .  to show hidden files
[15:50] <kristjan> under where it supose to be now?
[15:51] <OerHeks> in your /home/<your name>/  folder
[15:55] <kristjan> ehh ,cant see it
[15:58] <kristjan> ok i find it under root etc vlc lua
[15:59] <kristjan> but i cant copy the files there
[16:03] <zero_coder> hello
[16:03] <SonikkuAmerica> zero_coder: Hey!
[16:03] <zero_coder> how can I set shortcut key
[16:03] <zero_coder> hi SonikkuAmerica
[16:03] <zero_coder> SonikkuAmerica  its usually dead
[16:03] <SonikkuAmerica> Head for System Settings and check inside the Keyboard section.
[16:04] <zero_coder> SonikkuAmerica : 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_coder> i have been using unity
[16:05] <zero_coder> but its totally unproductive .maybe u can use it for tablets
[16:05] <zero_coder> SonikkuAmerica : I am in keyboard section
[16:05] <zero_coder> what next
[16:05] <SonikkuAmerica> Is there a "Keyboard Shortcuts" item in the menu on the left?
[16:06] <zero_coder> npoe
[16:06] <zero_coder> nope
[16:06] <BluesKaj> kristjan, 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_coder> SonikkuAmerica : there is something else called shortcuts and gestures
[16:08] <zero_coder> how to create a new one?
[16:08] <SonikkuAmerica> Oh crap... someone bail me out!
[16:10] <SonikkuAmerica> OK. Make sure "Plasma Desktop Shell" is selected from the drop-down menu, then hit "Add..." or click the + sign. (I forgot which.)
[16:11] <zero_coder> SonikkuAmerica : what is the command for launching terminal ?
[16:11] <SonikkuAmerica> zero_coder: Usually Ctrl+Alt+T
[16:11] <BluesKaj> me 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_coder> i mean the command not shortcut
[16:11] <zero_coder> i am trying to set it
[16:12] <zero_coder> I passed out of high school , still its difficult BluesKaj
[16:12] <SonikkuAmerica> BluesKaj: LOL!
[16:13] <zero_coder> SonikkuAmerica : what to do?
[16:14] <SonikkuAmerica> zero_coder: Or hit Alt+F2 and type "konsole" and hit ETNER
[16:14] <zero_coder> SonikkuAmerica : done
[16:14] <zero_coder> its set
[16:16] <zero_coder> SonikkuAmerica : thank you
[16:17] <SonikkuAmerica> You're welcome.
[16:18] <zero_coder> SonikkuAmerica : so what do you do for a living?
[16:21] <SonikkuAmerica> !ot | zero_coder
[16:23] <zero_coder> sorry.
[16:23] <zero_coder> i didn't mean to offend anythin
[16:25] <SonikkuAmerica> zero_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] <SonikkuAmerica> s/,/.
[17:44] <mbnoimi> I 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?
[18:00] <genii> mbnoimi: Does:  sudo ls /var/spool/cron/crontabs/       show a file there with the name of the user ?
[18:00] <mbnoimi> genii: is shows my user name
[18:01] <genii> mbnoimi: Please use a pastebin to show the result of:   grep vlc /var/log/auth.log
[18:02] <genii> If no result for the command, let us know that too.
[18:02] <mbnoimi> genii: no need to pastebin... it shows nothing!
[18:02] <genii> OK.
[18:06] <genii> mbnoimi: What is result of: crontab -l
[18:13] <mbnoimi> genii: http://pastebin.com/qF0ep4g9
[18:15] <genii> mbnoimi: 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 vlc
[18:17] <mbnoimi> genii: I did that... I may need to wait to see what if this will work within the coming 3min
[18:17]  * genii makes more coffee and settles in
[18:18] <mbnoimi> genii: :)
[18:20] <mbnoimi> genii: didn't work :(
[18:21] <genii> Bleh.
[18:23] <mbnoimi> genii: by the way, recollindex works fine at Sunday but I didn't add it manually, Recoll add it through its configurations
[18:26] <genii> Hm.
[18:28] <mbnoimi> genii: Do you've any idea in your mind?
[18:29] <genii> mbnoimi: Nothing comes immediately to mind, unfortunately.
[18:29] <mbnoimi> genii: Thanks... I'll pass my question to the main stream. Guys I need your help
[18:36] <genii> mbnoimi: 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.
[18:37] <mbnoimi> genii: Strange!
[18:39] <genii> Yes, you'd think the Task Scheduler would automatically make those type of entries
[18:54] <mbnoimi> genii: 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.jpg
[18:56] <mbnoimi> genii: I think this is weak point. I've to tell KDE guys about it
[18:56] <genii> mbnoimi: This seems to me be a bug with Task Scheduler
[18:57] <genii> ( or at least an omission not to have similar functionality as the gnome-schedule )
[18:58] <ivo888> hi
[18:58] <ivo888> how can i set up router with 1 lan card
[18:58] <ivo888> i try this http://linuxgazette.net/140/brownss.html  but other computers don`t have internet
[18:58] <ivo888> router, modem and other computers are connected to 1 switch
[19:00] <OerHeks> Your "router-pc" must have 2 ports minimum, one to the modem, and 2nd to your switch with clients
[19:02] <ivo888> but there is options with 1 card....
[19:03] <OerHeks> Not that i know of, wifi + lancable or lancable + lancable
[19:06] <ivo888> too bad :)
[19:06] <ivo888> i don`t have other card (it is laptop)
[21:45] <OxDeadC0de> can anyone maybe help me with a printing problem? Kubuntu 12.10 w/ cups and usn hplip printer. The printer works fine. I created an image 527x378@75ppi in the gimp (Which is 5.04x7.02 inches). I go to print on a 5x7 paper, disable margins, set the paper size to 5x7. What actually gets printed is quite a bit smaller than than 5x7 paper it should fill up
[21:45] <OxDeadC0de> s/usn/usb
[21:46]  * OxDeadC0de le sighs
[21:47] <OxDeadC0de> s/than than/than the
[21:47] <OxDeadC0de> then the? I don't know english very well.
[22:32] <mr-rich> Ok, just did the latest updates to 12.04 LTS and now thunderbird is crashing ... any ideas?
[23:02] <valorie> hi folks, I have a major problem on my newer laptop; I'm fortunate that I have an older one to fall back on
[23:02] <valorie> since a fresh install the other day, I've had an odd problem: application windows disappearing off to the left and today the right side
[23:03] <valorie> in system settings, it shows two monitor windows, which I must turn off one to get things to work right
[23:03] <valorie> since things were disappearing to the left today, I turned off the left one
[23:03] <valorie> now I have a black screen
[23:05] <valorie> the KDE guys told me to delete .kde/share/config/kcmdisplayrc and krandrrc
[23:05] <valorie> but they don't exist
[23:05] <valorie> any clues?
[23:06] <valorie> I do have a console, and I cat'ed the .xsession-errors file, some of which looks relevant
[23:06] <valorie> but other than copying it to a thumbdrive, not sure how to get that information off
[23:06] <valorie> I can file a bug on launchpad, but against what?
[23:06] <genii> !pastebinit
[23:07] <valorie> genii: is that for me?
[23:07] <valorie> ah, I see
[23:07] <valorie> sure
[23:07] <genii> valorie: Yes, a way to get the xsession-errors into a pastebin from CLI
[23:08] <genii> valorie: Although, I am leaving shortly and will not be able to look at it myself, someone else may take up the cause
[23:08] <Unit193> You may want to use one where you can set it private, or expire time.
[23:09] <valorie> installing it
[23:11] <valorie> ok, http://paste.ubuntu.com/5788248/
[23:25] <christopher> hello. 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).
[23:26] <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.
[23:27] <christopher> I'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 11.04
[23:28] <christopher> why would gcc be a ghost like this?
[23:29] <apachelogger> valorie: you'll want to catch afiestas, he knows all about screen stuff
[23:30] <apachelogger> christopher: 11.04?
[23:30] <apachelogger> I am reasonable certain that is not supported anymore
[23:32] <valorie> apachelogger: thank you
[23:32] <christopher> it isn't but I should be able to install an old version?
[23:32] <valorie> renaming .kde did the trick, but I'll be da**ed if I know why
[23:32] <christopher> the thing is niether is my hardware as a result
[23:32] <apachelogger> valorie: possibly the config is called kscreenrc now
[23:34] <christopher> This is the only know fix I know of for the fglrx incompatibility with new kernels
[23:35] <apachelogger> what 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"
[23:36] <apachelogger> sudo apt-get install gcc
[23:36] <christopher> doesn't work
[23:36] <christopher> says "can't find"
[23:37] <apachelogger> sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install gcc
[23:37] <apachelogger> actually it may refuse to find it because it is an unsupported release.

[23:38] <apachelogger> 11.04 is not on archive.ubuntu.com, neither will it be on mirrors

[23:39] <apachelogger> installing random debs is not advised btw
[23:40] <christopher> well I just need my graphics card to work.
[23:40] <christopher> this is the only pc I got and the only way up
[23:41] <apachelogger> you have no graphics with 12.04 or 13.04?
[23:42] <christopher> I making 3dc haracter sprites for a 2d game with my only business partner. The chug has to go.

[23:47] <valorie> do you know where i should be looking?
