| M_Kay | hi which tool can extract audio all/a certain audio tracks from a video if there is more than 2? | 06:28 |
| valorie | probably ffmpeg? | 06:30 |
| valorie | very configurable | 06:30 |
| valorie | not very user friendly, though | 06:30 |
| M_Kay | i would like to have a tool with GUI :D | 06:32 |
| valorie | M_Kay: VLC maybe be able to do that; I'm not sure | 06:39 |
| valorie | Kdenlive probably would as well | 06:39 |
| valorie | Blender perhaps can as well? | 06:40 |
| M_Kay | i tried kdenlive but it extracted only one track | 06:43 |
| M_Kay | vlc and blender ill try them | 06:44 |
| valorie | M_Kay: best of luck | 06:50 |
| valorie | if nothing else, the kdenlive guys might be some help | 06:51 |

| akoma1s | Hi! Internet searches so far haven't been that fruitful. Anyone knows if LibreOffice 4 in Raring supports the Global Menu (as implemented in plasma-widget-menubar) with the KDE4 VCL plugin? | 11:12 |
| apachelogger | VCL? | 11:13 |
| apachelogger | generally speaking it supports the global menu specification though | 11:13 |
| apachelogger | whether it specifically works with plasma-widget-menubar I do not know | 11:13 |
| akoma1s | "SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN=gtk loffice" hides the menu bar from the window, it's not appearing in the widget however. | 11:15 |
| akoma1s | With any other choice, including kde4, the menu bar stays in the window | 11:15 |

| tester56 | hi ... i have a problem with pm-utils ... i have a script of the following form: | 14:39 |
| tester56 | #!/bin/bash | 14:39 |
| tester56 | if on_ac_power; then | 14:39 |
| tester56 | # Reset back to normal settings | 14:39 |
| tester56 | else | 14:39 |
| FloodBotK1 | tester56: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. | 14:39 |
| tester56 | # Turn on aggressive power savings | 14:39 |
| tester56 | everything in the section else gets executed with root rights | 14:40 |
| tester56 | i need to run some commands only root can run ... so they don't work with sudo | 14:41 |
| === ovidiu-f| is now known as ovidiu-florin | ||
| tester56 | but the commands in the first section do not get run with the rights needed | 14:41 |
| tester56 | how can i change this? | 14:41 |
| tester56 | so it seems pm-utils calls the scripts in /etc/pm/power.d with different rights when i plug the power on and off | 14:45 |
| tester56 | power off: full rights | 14:45 |
| tester56 | power on: no sufficient rights to write into /sys/class/scsi_host/host0/link_power_management_policy | 14:45 |
| tester56 | is this a bug or can this be changed somewhere? | 14:46 |
| akoma1s | tester56: add a "logger -t myscript `id`" in that section and watch the syslog for the result | 14:47 |
| tester56 | which file should i read exactly? | 14:49 |
| akoma1s | /var/log/syslog | 14:49 |
| akoma1s | press G to reach the end fast | 14:50 |
| akoma1s | (if using less(1)) | 14:50 |
| tester56 | Jul 1 16:50:24 Precision-M4600 myscript: uid=0(root) gid=0(root) groups=0 (root) | 14:51 |
| akoma1s | mind doing a pastebinit <your_script_file> and pasting the address here? | 14:51 |
| tester56 | give me a second | 14:52 |
| tester56 | http://pastebin.com/APjxYTeK | 14:53 |
| tester56 | file is called powertop.sh | 14:54 |
| tester56 | akoma1s: for example: echo 'min_power' > '/sys/class/scsi_host/host0/link_power_management_policy' gets applied in the second section, but not in the first | 14:57 |
| tester56 | if I apply it after running sudo su it works | 14:57 |
| akoma1s | try put a "sleep 5" right before the line that fails | 14:58 |
| akoma1s | putting* | 14:58 |
| tester56 | i have tried that already | 14:58 |
| tester56 | did not change anything | 14:58 |
| gera1080 | op | 14:59 |
| gera1080 | ^-) | 14:59 |
| gera1080 | :-) | 14:59 |
| tester56 | akoma1s: any other ideas? | 15:01 |
| akoma1s | just getting up to speed with pm-utils :) | 15:02 |
| tester56 | that means? | 15:02 |
| tester56 | i have even tried putting the commands in an external script that is being called ... no change | 15:02 |
| tester56 | things some commands don't get applied | 15:02 |
| tester56 | while all the commands in the second section are applied sucessfully | 15:03 |
| tester56 | i can even write sleep 30 and things don't change | 15:03 |
| tester56 | bug if I run the command manually after becoming root (sudo su) it works | 15:03 |
| tester56 | *but | 15:03 |
| tester56 | but the rights seem to be fine? | 15:04 |
| akoma1s | Does running the 'min_power' command by hand when on ac power work? | 15:04 |
| tester56 | yeah as I wrote "but if I run the command manually after becoming root (sudo su) it works" | 15:05 |
| akoma1s | right, sorry | 15:05 |
| akoma1s | one sec | 15:05 |
| akoma1s | how did you determine that it can't write to that file? | 15:09 |
| tester56 | 3 commands don't get applied: line 13, line 7 and line 5 | 15:09 |
| tester56 | by checking with powertop | 15:09 |
| akoma1s | so, instead of min_power it shows max_performance after you plug in the ac adapter? | 15:10 |
| tester56 | yeah | 15:10 |
| tester56 | vim /sys/class/scsi_host/host0/link_power_management_policy | 15:11 |
| tester56 | shows me max performance | 15:11 |
| akoma1s | ok | 15:11 |
| tester56 | strange issue | 15:11 |
| tester56 | has the script the most powerful rights available? | 15:12 |
| tester56 | i suppose no | 15:12 |
| tester56 | the thing is: the script gets called two different times ... and i suppose one time sth. is wrong | 15:13 |
| akoma1s | if it is run by pm-utils it should | 15:14 |
| tester56 | your myscript test says for both times the same | 15:14 |
| akoma1s | could you insert a "exec >/tmp/myscript.$$.log 2>&1" after the shebang line? | 15:14 |
| tester56 | shebang line? | 15:14 |
| akoma1s | the #! line | 15:14 |
| tester56 | and then? | 15:15 |
| akoma1s | and replug the power adapter | 15:15 |
| akoma1s | afterwards check /tmp for myscript.*.log files | 15:16 |
| tester56 | no change | 15:16 |
| tester56 | logfiles are emtpy | 15:17 |
| tester56 | very strange | 15:17 |
| tester56 | at least it should complain about missing rights | 15:17 |
| akoma1s | indeed :/ | 15:18 |
| tester56 | any other idea? | 15:18 |
| akoma1s | could you check if there is a space character right before the "#!" ? | 15:18 |
| akoma1s | it shouldn't matter however | 15:18 |
| tester56 | yeah there is one | 15:18 |
| akoma1s | try removing it | 15:19 |
| akoma1s | you were lucky it ran at all :) | 15:19 |
| tester56 | no :-((( | 15:19 |
| tester56 | no change | 15:19 |
| akoma1s | sigh | 15:19 |
| tester56 | what could be wrong? | 15:19 |
| akoma1s | try changing the echo 'min_power' in the first section to echo 'garbage', just so can be sure we get the error messages logged | 15:20 |
| akoma1s | so we* | 15:20 |
| tester56 | /etc/pm/power.d/powertop.sh: line 12: echo: write error: Invalid argument | 15:22 |
| tester56 | is there a way to check if it gets applied and is then overwritten by the hardware instantly for any reason? | 15:23 |
| tester56 | but it has to be the hardware that overwrites, otherwise we would see an error message | 15:23 |
| akoma1s | ...or the kernel, for some reason | 15:25 |
| akoma1s | there may be, I'm looking into it | 15:25 |
| akoma1s | normally you'd use inotify | 15:25 |
| tester56 | can you reproduce the issue on your machine? | 15:26 |
| akoma1s | that's the next item on the plan :) | 15:27 |
| tester56 | but if the kernel would overwrite it ... why not overwriting when manually appling too? | 15:29 |
| akoma1s | heh, just noticed the /usr/lib/pm-utils/power.d/sata_alpm file | 15:30 |
| akoma1s | this may be the culprit | 15:30 |
| tester56 | true) [ "$SATA_ALPM_ENABLE" = true ] && set_sata_alpm min_power;; | 15:31 |
| tester56 | 39 false) set_sata_alpm max_performance;; | 15:31 |
| tester56 | *without the 39 | 15:31 |
| tester56 | sound very promising :-)) | 15:32 |
| akoma1s | yeah, looking for the correct place to set the SATA_ALPM_ENABLE variable now :) | 15:32 |
| tester56 | and let me guess ... that script is executed after my script? | 15:32 |
| tester56 | this would explain why my script does not work, does not matter how long I sleep | 15:33 |
| akoma1s | powertop.sh sorts before sata_alpm | 15:33 |
| tester56 | so it is pm-utils itself preventing the script from working, right? | 15:33 |
| akoma1s | so probably it's running after your script, indeed | 15:34 |
| akoma1s | yes, but I wouldn't advise removing it :) | 15:34 |
| tester56 | that behaviour should be changed ... why writing a script when it get changed again | 15:34 |
| tester56 | okay it does not matter ... the main thing is that everything works when the power source is unplugged | 15:35 |
| tester56 | I'll leave it there, now where we have found the reason | 15:35 |
| tester56 | sure this is the reason? | 15:36 |
| akoma1s | moving it out of the way temporarily | 15:37 |
| akoma1s | try moving* | 15:37 |
| tester56 | haha ... moving it out of the way works :-)))))))) | 15:38 |
| tester56 | i suppose the other files are responsible for the other problems | 15:40 |
| tester56 | so now it would be nice to find a way to change the priority of the scripts | 15:40 |
| tester56 | or should I place my scipt in /usr/lib/pm-utils/power.d/ ? | 15:41 |
| akoma1s | an easy way out could be renaming your script to zzz_powertop.sh | 15:41 |
| akoma1s | so it sorts last of all other scripts | 15:42 |
| tester56 | solves all issues apart from line 5 | 15:45 |
| tester56 | so there is another part involved :-( | 15:45 |
| akoma1s | the "iw dev wlan0 set power_save off" ? | 15:45 |
| tester56 | yeah | 15:46 |
| akoma1s | does this work when running it by hand? | 15:46 |
| tester56 | yeah | 15:46 |
| tester56 | erm .-... NO | 15:47 |
| tester56 | thought i have tried that on before :D | 15:47 |
| akoma1s | :) | 15:47 |
| tester56 | okay ... we'll leave it then ... | 15:48 |
| tester56 | thank you very very much! | 15:48 |
| akoma1s | I was about to ask you what card you had, so I'd buy one for myself too :) | 15:48 |
| akoma1s | I have to reload the module to change the power settings | 15:48 |
| tester56 | but in battery mode it works | 15:48 |
| tester56 | i suppose this is a kernel thing ... | 15:49 |
| tester56 | anyway thank you so much! | 15:49 |
| akoma1s | np :) | 15:49 |
| akoma1s | just a sec before you leave | 15:49 |
| tester56 | okay | 15:50 |
| akoma1s | try "ip link set dev wlan0 down; sleep 1; iw dev wlan0 set power_save off; ip link set dev wlan0 up" instead of that line | 15:51 |
| akoma1s | (you'll lose your internet connection temporarily) | 15:51 |
| tester56 | not sure if I want to do this | 15:51 |
| tester56 | do you want to know it ? then I 'll do it for you | 15:51 |
| akoma1s | no, it's okay :) | 15:52 |
| tester56 | okay fine | 15:52 |
| akoma1s | I said it in case you really wanted it :) | 15:52 |
| akoma1s | one last thing | 15:52 |
| tester56 | yeah? | 15:52 |
| akoma1s | use cat to peek at kernel config files, much easier than vim | 15:52 |
| akoma1s | (and works in every case) | 15:53 |
| tester56 | okay | 15:53 |
| akoma1s | that's all, hf :) | 15:53 |
| tester56 | are you an emacs guy? D | 15:53 |
| akoma1s | I like Emacs, | 15:53 |
| akoma1s | but I'm using kdevelop at the moment :) | 15:54 |
| tester56 | lol ... thank you very much ... c ya | 15:54 |
| akoma1s | cya :) | 15:54 |
| techdion | hello | 15:54 |
| * tester56 leaves the chat as happy as never before | 15:55 | |

| vbgunz | my mic used to sound perfect in kubuntu but for some reason, out of nowhere, out of the blue, I am noticing a statcy fizzy hissing anytime I talk. I just came from windows and in there it's flawless, really flawless, so I believe it can't be a hardware issue | 21:09 |
| vbgunz | anyhow, I have boost and input settings on so low here they're virtually near mute | 21:10 |
| vbgunz | I still get the popping fizzy fuzzy background noise when I talk or whisper, regardless of the input setting, low or high, boost or not. I am running out of ideas on what's causing it and even tried the low latency kernel and it didn't help. anyone have an idea how to fix this? | 21:11 |
