[04:15] <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?
[04:33] <yahyaa> wow its that easy, thanks
[04:36] <draik> I had to reboot for a tested change. I show that the driver is activated, but not in use.
[04:38] <draik> Going to install the driver from nVidia without X running. I'll be back if that doesn't work.
[04:51] <draik> Reinstalled nvidia-current, but the resolution size issue is not resolved.
[06:08] <draikx> My xorg.conf seems to keep the old VGA info, and hasn't updated to show only the HDMI info.
[06:43] <FloodBotK1> !netsplit
[07:55] <lordievader> Good morning.
[09:31] <jocelyn> hello
[09:54] <Algomekwin> Hello, Hitchcock. This is first time use for me, stil have to find out all topics of this app.
[11:01] <Whydoyousmile> ?
[11:22] <BluesKaj_> Howdy folks
[13:16] <kdef> for wifi, what is recommended, pci-e, pci or usb?    and which chipset?   I thought maybe atheros
[13:18] <smartboyhw> kdef, whoa, are you trying to build a computer?
[13:20] <BluesKaj> broadcom has the most popular and linux friendly wifi chips  IME
[13:25] <kdef> broadcom? lol
[13:27] <smartboyhw> kdef, why lol?
[13:27] <kdef> broadcom's support is notoriously bad
[13:28] <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
[13:29] <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
[13:30] <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
[13:31] <kdef> because the pci-e card is in the bottom portion of the case
[13:47] <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)
[13:56] <BluesKaj> n0yd, I tried the repos version and it was ok , kvirc's not my cuppa tea tho
[13:58] <BluesKaj> kdef, there's lots of broadcom wifi working on ubuntu , just ask there
[14:08] <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
[14:14] <BluesKaj> kdef, check this out , https://www.thinkpenguin.com/catalog/wireless-networking-gnulinux
[14:18] <kdef> interesting... they sell Atheros chipsets mostly
[14:22] <vitaliy_> Hello!
[14:23] <vitaliy_> Any Archipellers here?
[14:24] <vitaliy_> Anybody here?
[14:24] <sithlord48> whats an archipeller?
[14:24] <vitaliy_> Who uses Archipel
[14:25] <vitaliy_> I would be greatful if someone could help me
[14:26] <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?
[14:27] <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
[14:29] <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 .
[14:31] <vitaliy_> Actually I tought this is their IRC chanel
[14:32] <vitaliy_> Anyway, thanks
[14:32] <sithlord48> this is #kubuntu for Offical Support for Kubuntu (gnu/linux distro)
[14:33] <sithlord48> sorry if you have kubuntu for KDE problems im much more helpful. best of luck finding a solution.
[14:34] <BluesKaj> kdef, looks like atheros might be your best choice for linux
[14:36] <alphacrypt_> exit
[14:36] <alphacrypt_> asda
[14:37] <sithlord48> hey BluesKaj i grow board w/ my netbook and looking for a distro to toy with on my i386 netbook any good suggestions
[14:39] <BluesKaj> what's on your netbook now , sithlord48 ?
[14:39] <sithlord48> BluesKaj:  kubuntu 13.04 or maybe saucy
[14:41] <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.
[14:42] <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
[14:43] <BluesKaj> ok, well wayland won't be official for kubuntu until 14.04
[14:43] <sithlord48> i know .
[14:44] <sithlord48> i wanted to try to build my Qt project on it for fun
[14:45] <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 .
[14:46] <sithlord48> kubuntu is really slow on my netbook  because i enabled encryption of my home so it takes it time on disk stuff.
[14:47] <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.
[15:11] <prsteele> Anyone know how I can get applications launched via the launcher to have access to variables defined in my .bashrc?
[15:20] <DarthFrog> prsteele: Why do you think they don't?
[15:21] <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
[15:22] <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
[15:23] <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?
[15:24] <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
[15:25] <DarthFrog> By launcher, I presume you mean Alt-F2?
[15:26] <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
[15:27] <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.
[15:28] <prsteele> DarthFrog: its strange; I source my bashrc on login (assuming bash_profile is actually run by lightdm), so it should 'just work'
[15:29] <DarthFrog> Try setting your $PATH in .profile.
[15:29] <prsteele> DarthFrog: is .profile a lightdm thing?
[15:30] <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.
[15:31] <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?
[15:32] <DarthFrog> sh is dash.
[15:33] <prsteele> well, logging out to give this a try, thanks
[15:33] <DarthFrog> Let me know if it works, please.
[15:54] <alphacrypt> hi
[15:55] <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
[16:01] <prsteele> if anyone was wondering (or if this channel is logged), defining $PATH in .profile worked
[16:32] <stack3457_> is there a way I can upgrade plasma1 to plasma2 ?
[17:32] <n0yd|away> hmm nice
[21:41] <xfred2222> test
[21:44] <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?
[21:49] <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
[21:52] <genii> kdesudo k3b
[21:53] <xfred2222> tryied to open terminal - crashs in live dvd?? weird
[21:56] <xfred2222> run command interface, : KDEinit could not luanch '/usr/bin/konsole
[21:58] <xfred2222> my entire folders/files is right in front of me and i can't do anything about it.... shoot me please...
[21:59] <zuperfreak> you didn't eject the live cd, did you?
[21:59] <xfred2222> yes, to put in a new dvd
[22:00] <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\
[22:03] <xfred2222> ah ha i see something good happenin
[22:04] <zuperfreak> good deal :)
[22:07] <xfred2222> in process of changing permission in k3b, hold on...
[22:23] <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 
[22:28] <onoone> Hey everyone I'm tearing my hair out trying to get fullscreen resolution with kubuntu in virtualbox
