| draik | Hello all. I had my dual monitor setup (1:VGA 2:HDMI). I did away with my VGA monitor and stayed with the HDMI TV. Now, the 1920x1080 resolution looks like 800x600. How can I fix it so everything is in the correct resolution? | 04:15 |

| yahyaa | wow its that easy, thanks | 04:33 |
| draik | I had to reboot for a tested change. I show that the driver is activated, but not in use. | 04:36 |
| draik | Going to install the driver from nVidia without X running. I'll be back if that doesn't work. | 04:38 |
| draik | Reinstalled nvidia-current, but the resolution size issue is not resolved. | 04:51 |
| draikx | My xorg.conf seems to keep the old VGA info, and hasn't updated to show only the HDMI info. | 06:08 |
| FloodBotK1 | !netsplit | 06:43 |
| ubottu | netsplit is when two IRC servers of the same network (like freenode) disconnect from each other, so users on one server stop seeing users on the other. If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit | 06:43 |

| kdef | for wifi, what is recommended, pci-e, pci or usb? and which chipset? I thought maybe atheros | 13:16 |
| smartboyhw | kdef, whoa, are you trying to build a computer? | 13:18 |
| BluesKaj | broadcom has the most popular and linux friendly wifi chips IME | 13:20 |
| kdef | broadcom? lol | 13:25 |
| smartboyhw | kdef, why lol? | 13:27 |
| kdef | broadcom's support is notoriously bad | 13:27 |
| smartboyhw | well well | 13:28 |
| kdef | I think they opensourced for linux, though? but, I don't know of any new broadcom wifi hardware out there that works | 13:28 |
| kdef | do you know the phoronix site? they tested a mac pro with ubuntu and the broadcom wifi was a problem ;-) | 13:29 |
| kdef | oops, mac air | 13:29 |
| kdef | anyway, I would like to know the thoughts on pci-e vs usb.... I read someplace where ppl said the antennas are in the cables with pci-e | 13:30 |
| kdef | because the pci-e card is in the bottom portion of the case | 13:31 |

| n0yd | Anyone have experience building kvirc from svn? | 13:47 |
| n0yd | Just curious if anyone has gotten it to work succesfully (yes I am well aware it is available in the repos) | 13:47 |
| BluesKaj | n0yd, I tried the repos version and it was ok , kvirc's not my cuppa tea tho | 13:56 |
| BluesKaj | kdef, there's lots of broadcom wifi working on ubuntu , just ask there | 13:58 |
| BluesKaj | kdef, of course I'm not insisting you use it ...it's your choice and researching the forums might be a good method to find what's best nowadays | 14:08 |
| BluesKaj | kdef, check this out , https://www.thinkpenguin.com/catalog/wireless-networking-gnulinux | 14:14 |
| kdef | interesting... they sell Atheros chipsets mostly | 14:18 |
| vitaliy_ | Hello! | 14:22 |
| vitaliy_ | Any Archipellers here? | 14:23 |
| vitaliy_ | Anybody here? | 14:24 |
| sithlord48 | whats an archipeller? | 14:24 |
| vitaliy_ | Who uses Archipel | 14:24 |
| vitaliy_ | I would be greatful if someone could help me | 14:25 |
| sithlord48 | oh i have never heard of it but now that i know what it is maybe i will set up some VMs | 14:26 |
| sithlord48 | whats your problem? | 14:26 |
| vitaliy_ | I have a problem with "New VM" button. It does not do anything when I click on it... I have looked over the FAQ that tells about a Hypervisor view, but I could not find that | 14:27 |
| sithlord48 | oh i see application specific .. do they maybe have an irc channel you could ask in. you may have better luck. | 14:29 |
| sithlord48 | the one general suggestion i have it start it via the command line and see if you get any helpful output . | 14:29 |
| vitaliy_ | Actually I tought this is their IRC chanel | 14:31 |
| vitaliy_ | Anyway, thanks | 14:32 |
| sithlord48 | this is #kubuntu for Offical Support for Kubuntu (gnu/linux distro) | 14:32 |
| sithlord48 | sorry if you have kubuntu for KDE problems im much more helpful. best of luck finding a solution. | 14:33 |
| BluesKaj | kdef, looks like atheros might be your best choice for linux | 14:34 |
| alphacrypt_ | exit | 14:36 |

| sithlord48 | hey BluesKaj i grow board w/ my netbook and looking for a distro to toy with on my i386 netbook any good suggestions | 14:37 |
| BluesKaj | what's on your netbook now , sithlord48 ? | 14:39 |
| sithlord48 | BluesKaj: kubuntu 13.04 or maybe saucy | 14:39 |
| sithlord48 | it sits in a corner i don't use it much now. i was trying to get RBOS running since it all wayland but it don't like me. | 14:41 |
| BluesKaj | uhm , sithlord48 , run lsb_release -r | 14:42 |
| sithlord48 | oh its not on now. i pretty sure it raring since i have not used it recently enuff for it to be updated to saucy | 14:42 |
| BluesKaj | ok, well wayland won't be official for kubuntu until 14.04 | 14:43 |
| sithlord48 | i know . | 14:43 |
| sithlord48 | i wanted to try to build my Qt project on it for fun | 14:44 |
| BluesKaj | I'm running 13.10 atm and it's quite stable | 14:45 |
| sithlord48 | i have that on my work computer | 14:45 |
| sithlord48 | i know it sounds bad but i only browse with it . | 14:45 |
| sithlord48 | kubuntu is really slow on my netbook because i enabled encryption of my home so it takes it time on disk stuff. | 14:46 |
| sithlord48 | lsb_release -r: 13.04 | 14:47 |
| BluesKaj | really ? ...work compuer with a dev OS , I admire your sense of adventure | 14:47 |
| sithlord48 | i only use it for browsing the net and very few work related tasks. since @ work i deal mostly w/ hardware stuf. | 14:47 |

| prsteele | Anyone know how I can get applications launched via the launcher to have access to variables defined in my .bashrc? | 15:11 |
| DarthFrog | prsteele: Why do you think they don't? | 15:20 |
| prsteele | DarthFrog: If I open Konsole, echo $PATH is 'correct' for my purposes | 15:21 |
| prsteele | DarthFrog: but if I launch emacs from launcher, it doesn't have the same $PATH | 15:21 |
| prsteele | DarthFrog: however, if I launch emacs from Konsole, it does | 15:21 |
| DarthFrog | Really? Hmm, that's surprising. I guess the launcher isn't spawning a sub-shell. | 15:22 |
| prsteele | DarthFrog: what I assumed. I can get it to 'run in a terminal', but that literally leaves a terminal window open as well | 15:22 |
| DarthFrog | In that case, launch emacs or whatever prograom you want to have your .bashrc enviromental variables via a shell script. | 15:23 |
| prsteele | DarthFrog: so should I just delete the emacs launcher, make a shell script and add it in? | 15:23 |
| DarthFrog | Perhaps not delete, rename as a backup. | 15:24 |
| prsteele | DarthFrog: I feel like I'm working against KDE, not with it -- even if I do this, when I open a launcher and type 'emacs', the first option will still be 'run emacs' (which doesn't work) and not the editable emacs icon | 15:24 |
| DarthFrog | By launcher, I presume you mean Alt-F2? | 15:25 |
| prsteele | DarthFrog: actually, clicking the "K" in the ... task-bar thing | 15:26 |
| DarthFrog | OK. Alt-F2 is actually krunner. | 15:26 |
| prsteele | DarthFrog: good to know | 15:26 |
| prsteele | DarthFrog: maybe I need to alias emacs? although that seems... kludgy | 15:27 |
| DarthFrog | prsteele: I'm sure there's a more elegant solution. But I've never had to do what you're trying to do. | 15:27 |
| prsteele | DarthFrog: its strange; I source my bashrc on login (assuming bash_profile is actually run by lightdm), so it should 'just work' | 15:28 |
| DarthFrog | Try setting your $PATH in .profile. | 15:29 |
| prsteele | DarthFrog: is .profile a lightdm thing? | 15:29 |
| DarthFrog | I think it's an X thing. :-) | 15:30 |
| DarthFrog | Not sure. It's been a very long time since I've had to look at this stuff. :-) Things have just worked. | 15:30 |
| DarthFrog | I think you'll have to restart X if you update .profile. | 15:31 |
| prsteele | my current .profile sources .bashrc, it seems | 15:31 |
| prsteele | and that was the system default, I haven't changed it | 15:31 |
| prsteele | wait, that checks to see if bash is running... | 15:31 |
| prsteele | maybe all this is running in sh? | 15:31 |
| DarthFrog | sh is dash. | 15:32 |
| prsteele | well, logging out to give this a try, thanks | 15:33 |
| DarthFrog | Let me know if it works, please. | 15:33 |
| alphacrypt | hi | 15:54 |
| alphacrypt | my windows were just fixed, read, maybe kwin crashed? then I stopped just processes by system monitor stopped startet lightdm and seems to work again | 15:55 |
| alphacrypt | whats the way to solve it the right way, me dont know, that seems just to be luck not know how I did | 15:55 |
| prsteele | if anyone was wondering (or if this channel is logged), defining $PATH in .profile worked | 16:01 |

| xfred2222 | hi, had major system crash, now loaded with live dvd, want to backup to dvd with k3b, k3b says insufficient permissions to read following files, how can i change this so i can backup? | 21:44 |
| zuperfreak | not to familar with k3b, you could try opening a terminal, changing to the live cd root, then launching k3b from that terminal window | 21:49 |
| genii | kdesudo k3b | 21:52 |
| xfred2222 | tryied to open terminal - crashs in live dvd?? weird | 21:53 |
| xfred2222 | run command interface, : KDEinit could not luanch '/usr/bin/konsole | 21:56 |
| xfred2222 | my entire folders/files is right in front of me and i can't do anything about it.... shoot me please... | 21:58 |
| zuperfreak | you didn't eject the live cd, did you? | 21:59 |
| xfred2222 | yes, to put in a new dvd | 21:59 |
| zuperfreak | put it back in | 22:00 |
| xfred2222 | ok | 22:00 |
| zuperfreak | is your current drive in good working condition? and do you happen to have a second drive, or a server on your network? | 22:00 |
| zuperfreak | try again | 22:00 |
| xfred2222 | this is a usb external drive\ | 22:00 |
| xfred2222 | ah ha i see something good happenin | 22:03 |
| zuperfreak | good deal :) | 22:04 |
| xfred2222 | in process of changing permission in k3b, hold on... | 22:07 |
| === fluxbox_ is now known as TunneBlick | ||
| xfred2222 | ok, i'm still having crashs, and problems but now i know the right commands to get to my root, and kdesudo k3b is the command to use to get k3b to change permissions proper. now i just have to get k3b to work right and i can back up my data. so silly me removing disk before running app. i thought everything was in memory, did'nt need disk... lol ahead of myself. Thanks for help, will let you know how it goes in a bit after reboot | 22:23 |
