psinghDoes anyone else find that fonts in some parts of KDE look better than fonts in other parts?  For example, the fonts in Quassel lok sharp.  The fonts in System Settings are OK, and the fonts in Kickoff are very fuzzy.  Likewise, the fonts in Calligra Words are extreemly fuzzy.  Does anyone know why this is (or, better yet, have a solution)?03:54

ss_hazegive me one good icon set for kubuntu15:44
=== 20WACQ4ZX is now known as LjL
BluesKajss_haze, I like your courteous manner ... try system settings>application appearance>icons>get new themes15:50
ss_hazepeople are saying that microsoft stole kde style for 715:50
ss_hazebut you cannot run widgets and icon mode on the same desktop15:50
ss_hazeI tried, half of stuff there isn't downloadable15:50
BluesKajno virtual desktops/pagers etc15:51
ss_hazeor even more15:51
BluesKajyou can install kde on windows , but it's clunky15:51
ss_hazeI don't need windows, I just can't understand why folder view and widgets couldn't work on same desktop15:52
ss_hazeI just hate the blue icons on kde15:55
ss_hazehow and why they are default when they look really old15:55
BluesKajdid you see my post about new themes ?15:56
ss_hazeyes15:56
ss_hazeI can't download anything that could satisfy15:57
ss_hazeme15:57
ss_hazeI download some theme, has to copy some files to dir, instead of just clicking on button15:59
BluesKajwell, too bad for you ...maybe a different desktop environment might ,ake you happy15:59
BluesKajmake15:59
ss_hazepluss16:01
ss_hazein folder, those icons that shows directories stay the same for some reason16:02
ss_hazewhen I apply some theme16:02
ss_hazeif kde is capable of making windows ui out of it, why it can't be more beatifull by default16:03
ss_hazeatleast a bit16:03
BluesKajss_haze, apply the themes with root permissions , open krunner (alt+F2) kdesudo systemsettings , the apply the themes16:03
BluesKajthen apply16:04

ss_hazebtw I have xfce, gnome installed also16:06
ss_hazexfce has less eyecandy, gnome feels like big stupid netbook16:07
ss_hazewhat is so about kde, to use it in first place?16:18
ss_hazeI like a lot of apps, but environment feels like dummy version of windows 7,  and with so much of what qt is capable, where is the problem to give ui that is really capable of having all the desktop functions like it is in windows16:21
=== Guest48668 is now known as yofel
justjimss_haze: Zorin is a distro that is designed to look like windows apparently; I havent ever used it though. I want to use Linux, not windows. It takes a while to get used to, but once you do, its a world apart.16:24
ss_hazein fact it makes it silly to use desktop with no icons and only widgets, or icons and no widgets16:25
justjimKeep trying, but keep the moaning to a minimum and youĺl get plenty of help for free.16:25

ss_hazeI want to use the best16:25
justjimbest and beautiful are both subjective terms. You want to use the best for YOU. That is not the same as an imaginary Best.16:25
justjimCheerio.16:26
ss_hazekde devs should agree that having folder view as widget, or desktop with folder view and no widgets is downfall from16:26
ss_hazewhat windows (bad os) have by default16:27
ss_hazewhatever is best for me or others, it would be completely normal if kde would come capable in UI of doing the same as OS we all hate for some reasons16:29
ss_haze..16:32
OerHeksss_haze, i am glad KDE does not compete with windows.16:43
ss_hazecompetition is good thing, if you want to create something that would be the best16:44
ss_hazeand there should be good alternative ui16:45

makuseruHi, I'm running Kubuntu 13.04 and Im having a problem with dual monitors. When ever I open a new tab in firefox it goes to my second monitor, even though in the display settings i have my main monitor set as the primary output. How can i stop this?16:59
dhqWhere is the resolution file stored... its no longer using xorg.conf17:00

lflucashi, I'm trying to setup nfs_v4 between two compturers ubuntu 12.04. But I'm not able to get automatic idmap working, since the user IDs are different in both machines. Anybody tried it before?17:19
dhqIs there a failsafe for kubunty17:26
geniidhq: Are you able to get to the login screen?17:27
dhqYes17:27
dhqWhen I proceed further it says resolution not supported17:28
geniidhq: Then I'd suggest to try: ctrl-alt-f1    ..login to text console there with your name/password. Then: mv .kde .oldkde         then: sudo service lightdm restart  ...and try to login again17:29
dhqWont that change all my kde app setting17:29
geniidhq: If not dumped to the login screen after the restart command , use alt-f7 to try and get there17:29
geniidhq: It will make kde use all it's defaults. Which will let you get into it at least. Then you can examine whats in the .oldkde17:30
geniiWork, afk17:31

n0ydthough if its buillt into the kernel now, that may be why. Im on a 3.9 liquorix kernel20:19
Nakkelkio-mtp and libmtp should handle it for KDE20:19
