fractaline | hello people.. i've had my opengl compositing stop working after an apt-get update that was largely kde stuff. anyone have a similar experience or know how to look into the issue? | 00:37 |
---|---|---|
GiGaHuRtZ | Hmm, guess I wilkl ask here soince every channel before has been clueless | 00:52 |
GiGaHuRtZ | I decided to dig out my brandnew never used 7 inch TFT resistive touchscreen, to have a little fun | 00:53 |
GiGaHuRtZ | Well, it works in KDE as a display, and the touchscreen works, but the problem is it acts a touchpad point device | 00:53 |
GiGaHuRtZ | I dont know how to get it to work as touchpad | 00:53 |
GiGaHuRtZ | The companies support is very pooor,m and havent published drivers since K24 and K27 | 00:54 |
GiGaHuRtZ | 26* | 00:54 |
GiGaHuRtZ | Apparently there 3.xs kernels have some sort of module that I believe works with the device, and I have it loaded | 00:54 |
GiGaHuRtZ | Restarted x etc, no difference | 00:54 |
GiGaHuRtZ | Im clueless with touchscreens, so im a bit lost | 00:55 |
GiGaHuRtZ | Guess i will see if i can get going in 8.1 | 01:03 |
fractaline | i've also got what seems to me like a huge memory leak from plasma.. system activity says it's using 2.7gig of 3.7... | 01:24 |
greg__ | hello | 01:26 |
fractaline | system is SO slow. | 01:27 |
fractaline | ok, system seems better after removing plasma config files and restarting but still can't enable opengl... i'd love to know what to do next... | 02:30 |

juacom99 | hi, one question, when i search someting at the launcher i keep getting old results. any way to get ride of theme? | 02:57 |
autista | lolbuntu maximum rice edition | 03:48 |
^catalyst | hello | 04:07 |
em | fractaline: cool. Yeah so I would probably set it all up for her and then just let her use it. Her needs are very basic. | 04:57 |
em | fractaline: the one thing im worried about is being able to setup her hp wireless printer-scanner | 04:58 |
em | does kubuntu have a good system for recognizing and using printers? | 04:58 |
valorie | why not try it out with a liveDVD or USB? | 04:58 |
valorie | then you can be sure | 04:58 |
em | I suppose I will try | 04:59 |
em | If I get the latest Kubuntu regular version will it be able to LiveDVD ? | 04:59 |
valorie | it will make both of you feel more secure | 04:59 |
valorie | all the released ISOs will work as liveDVDs | 05:00 |
valorie | unless they are old, and say they are not | 05:00 |
em | ok | 05:01 |
valorie | we have no alternate install DVDs anymore | 05:01 |
em | valorie: but then how do you do things like full disk encryption? | 05:47 |
valorie | use the live media to test things out | 05:47 |
valorie | not as a permanent solution | 05:47 |
em | valorie: no im saying, since you have no more alt DVDS anymore, how would a person who uses kubuntu set up something like full disk encryption ? | 05:49 |
em | i always used the alt cds for that | 05:49 |
valorie | I've never done it, but I believe that is one of the choices offered as you install | 05:49 |
valorie | em: http://laffers.net/howtos/install-kubuntu-10-10-with-full-disk-encryption/ | 05:51 |
valorie | is just the top link I get when googling full disk encryption kubuntu | 05:51 |
mojo706 | hello, quick question. If you have Kubuntu then install xfce then you have Xubuntu? | 05:53 |
valorie | mojo706: how did you install xfce? | 05:54 |
Unit193 | Not precisely, but why would you need Xubuntu if you just want Xfce? | 05:54 |
mojo706 | valorie, its not me its a question on UF about xfce | 05:55 |
mojo706 | Unit193, I didn't know the difference | 05:56 |
valorie | mojo706: I would think that if you apt-get install xfce-desktop, then you will be able to choose xubuntu in grub | 06:00 |
valorie | however, having never tried it, I can't say for sure | 06:00 |
valorie | you might ask in #xubuntu | 06:01 |
valorie | where the experts live | 06:01 |
mojo706 | thanks valorie | 06:17 |
em | valorie: looks like Kubuntu having no more altDVDs is a serious problem. | 06:27 |
valorie | why is that? | 06:30 |
em | Because I really liked to be able to put full disk encryption on my laptop with the alt DVD | 06:31 |
em | looking at those instructions you linked, that was for 10.10 and its really opaque. | 06:31 |
valorie | can you use the server CD to do that? | 06:31 |
valorie | well, I just gave you the top match | 06:32 |
em | I dont know | 06:32 |
em | maybe i could use an ubuntu alt DVD if they still make them, and then put kubuntu-desktop on it | 06:32 |
em | i bet that won't be the same tho | 06:32 |
valorie | we don't have enough people to continue to provide the alt-CD | 06:32 |
jussi | em: Im pretty sure the full disk encryption was added to unity | 06:32 |
jussi | err | 06:33 |
jussi | not unity | 06:33 |
jussi | the installer that I forget the name of :D | 06:33 |
em | hm, what do you mean? | 06:33 |
tsimpson | ubiquity | 06:34 |
jussi | tsimpson: thanks :) | 06:35 |
em | is ubiquity the way that kubuntu is installed on the normal DVD now? | 06:35 |
tsimpson | ubiquity is what all the ubuntu's use as the graphical installer | 06:35 |
jussi | http://www.ozzyfrank.com/Ubuntu/images/ad-Kubuntu-Ubiquity-Partitioner_th.jpg | 06:35 |
em | oh and full disk encryption is an option on there now? | 06:35 |
jussi | see picture :) | 06:36 |
valorie | I thought I remembered that it was..... | 06:37 |
c-c-m | hello can anyone tell me how can I add plugins to kdevelop? | 06:37 |
em | jussi: that looks promising as long as you want to use your whole disk. | 06:38 |
c-c-m | I'm trying to follow this tutorial http://nikosams.blogspot.com.es/2010/02/kdevelop-xdebug-php-debugger.html | 06:38 |
em | jussi: the problem can come if you want to dual boot and have enryption on the linux side | 06:38 |
c-c-m | and I don't know how to install execturebrowser plugin from here: http://download.kde.org/unstable/kdevelop/3.9.98/src | 06:38 |
jussi | em: selecct manual | 06:38 |
em | but then you won't get to encrypt | 06:38 |
syria | Hi ! after downloading anything using firefox, Double click on the downloaded file will ask me which app is supposed to run this file! I don't get this with firefox on unity or windows or anything else! | 06:55 |
valorie | syria, you can set stuff like this in systemsettings | 07:00 |
valorie | once set globally, you won't be asked again | 07:01 |
syria | valorie: Do you mean default applications? | 07:02 |
valorie | yes | 07:02 |
syria | valorie: but it doesn't mention .zip files or . jpg for example! | 07:05 |
valorie | as I recall, there is usually a checkbox though: use this choice in the future, or some such | 07:06 |
valorie | which should help | 07:07 |
syria | valorie: if you mark this checkbox all sorts of files will be opened using the same app. | 07:07 |
valorie | right | 07:08 |
syria | I have been suffering from this for a while. :( | 07:08 |
valorie | isn't that the point? | 07:08 |
syria | valorie: if you mark the checkbox , .zip files and jpg and .deb will be opened the same app! | 07:08 |
valorie | hmmm | 07:08 |
valorie | that seems wrong | 07:09 |
valorie | file-a-bugreport type wrong | 07:09 |

nick87720z | hello there. I'm again about that problem with gtk3 apps. Not even kde problem. It was xsettings-kde daemon, which caused gtk3 apps to apply default Raleigh style. | 08:22 |
_droid | hi people, I tried to install the latest ruby from source and I think I screwed something up. Whenever changing or list the contents of a directory I get this message from bash: | 08:23 |
_droid | -bash: /usr/share/ruby-rvm/scripts/initialize: No such file or directory | 08:23 |
_droid | -bash: /usr/share/ruby-rvm/scripts/hook: No such file or directory | 08:23 |
_droid | can someone help | 08:23 |
nick87720z | Very strange, since according to description, this daemon should just remove necesarity to restart gtk3 stuff :/ | 08:23 |
nick87720z | some xsettings-kde bug | 08:24 |
nick87720z | _droid: Though i'm not persistent member of this channel... How this relates to kubuntu? | 08:25 |
_droid | nick87720z: because my os is kubuntu | 08:25 |

nick87720z | for gtk2 apps (tested audacious) xsettings-kde works correct | 08:39 |
nick87720z | 3g modem failure :/ | 08:50 |
nick87720z | I checked, if that bug is caused by same as in xfce4 gtk3 theme was set equal to gtk2 one, but setting gtk2 to oxygen-kde did not work for gtk3 | 08:51 |

palasso | I just noticed that package 'firefox' replaces package 'kubuntu-firefox-installer'. Till now I was purging package 'kubuntu-firefox-installer' and then installing via the package manager package 'firefox'. So was it redundant that I was purging at first 'kubuntu-firefox-installer' ? | 14:40 |
BluesKaj | palasso, may i ask why you were purging the installer ? | 14:48 |
palasso | I preferred to install firefox without the installer but through the package manager as it were a normal package. Also since I install firefox that way, I don't really need the installer to be installed on my system. | 14:50 |
palasso | Basically I am creating a markings file and preparing it for Kubuntu 13.10 and I am reviewing the different packages and their structure. | 14:51 |
Raseran | hi | 14:52 |
BluesKaj | well palasso I can tell you that the FF installer is still default in 13,.10 | 15:02 |
palasso | BluesKaj: I'm okay with it. I'm not here to open debates on what should be default in 13.10 :) | 15:13 |
palasso | As a matter of fact I like Kubuntu that much that I'm installing the kubuntu-full metapackage ;) | 15:13 |
BluesKaj | yeah , but I figured you might like to know , palasso | 15:13 |

BluesKaj | I heard FF was dropping the ubuntu installer , so I guess (k)ubuntu are maintanimg it | 15:16 |
palasso | ubuntu installer? I'm not familiar with that | 15:17 |
BluesKaj | the ff installer | 15:17 |
palasso | The ff installer is a kubuntu thing... I don't think it was ever on any other distro. | 15:18 |
BluesKaj | I'd like to see some that are optional in the OS installer for example some kde PIM services that I will never use | 15:18 |
palasso | you mean ubiquity-kde ? | 15:19 |
BluesKaj | yes | 15:19 |
palasso | I'd like to see a button that says "pick your own packages to be installed" and goes to a screen with Muon Package Manager. Then I would go File ---> Read Markings and open my markings file with my set of package choices. It's what I do now after the installation ;) | 15:21 |

BluesKaj | palasso, yes , i like your idea of the optional manual package install , apart from the default which should excluse PIMs and any search/index apps etc | 15:25 |
BluesKaj | err exclude | 15:26 |
palasso | Isn't there a kubuntu-minimal metapackage? | 15:26 |
palasso | The alternate installer had the ability to choose from different metapackages (e.g. I'd choose from that 'kubuntu-full') | 15:27 |
BluesKaj | i miss the alternate install , i preferred it to the auto | 15:28 |

nick87720z | hello there | 17:32 |
nick87720z | Is it possible, to change oxygen background style for gui (not kwin decoration)? | 17:32 |
nick87720z | I don't recall, did i achieve that earlier (one or more years ago), but currently i don't se nothing looking like that neither in configuration dialog, nor in oxygenrc. | 17:34 |
nick87720z | My problem is that primary style (qt4/gtk2) is qtcurve, when gtk3 is oxygen. | 17:35 |
nick87720z | qtcurve: http://wstaw.org/m/2013/07/31/screen1.png | 17:36 |
nick87720z | for others decoration is opaque, so it could be solid together oxygen-styled windows, but background enlightenment breaks this | 17:38 |

keithzg | Hmm, I just installed Kubuntu 13.04 on an Acer C7 (a chromebook). None of the alternate functions of the F keys (like brightness, volume, etc) seem to work. Anyone have any ideas? | 22:16 |
exosus | keithzg, maybe you have to try to set them manually? | 22:17 |
keithzg | exosus: Yeah, that's what I' | 22:17 |
keithzg | m resorting to. But that means they won't work if not logged in, for example (mostly just a tingle issue in the case of brightness controls, for example) | 22:18 |
exosus | i see | 22:18 |
keithzg | And, after all, the settings are already set, for example, for "Volume Down" as the key for putting the volume down, so something's gone wrong with detecting that, at very least. | 22:19 |
exosus | do chromebooks have a standalone buttons for functions? in my case i need to press fn key + f1..8 | 22:20 |
keithzg | exosus: Naw, it's the standard function+f# keys, but hitting fn+f# does nothing. | 22:20 |
keithzg | Hmmm. And hitting Fn+F6 in the keybindings isn't even noticed. So I can't even manually set it. Sigh. | 22:21 |
exosus | I am not experienced kubuntu user, so sorry if my suggestions turn out to be wrong. Maybe there is something with keyboard layout? | 22:23 |

robotdevil | can anyone tell me if the kubuntu 13.04 manual partitioning installer bug is fixed | 22:34 |
exosus | as i've checked on my kubuntu, whenever i press fn key standalone or when i use it in this way: "fn"+"=" it doesnt recognize fn key | 22:34 |
exosus | and when i use it with arrows or f# it changes name to "Volume up/down" "Monitor Brightness.." | 22:36 |
keithzg | Yeah, when I use it with F# it . . . does nothing at all. | 22:39 |
