mparilloWatcher|2: Have you tried System Settings > Desktop Effects?00:12
doctor_well? can i make my own irc network?00:12
tertuif you mean host one yourself there are plenty of programs to that effect, if you mean write one yourself i've heard IRC is one of the simplest protocols there is.00:12
Watcher|2Yes, I have. Didn't have any effect.00:12
doctor_The former. Tertu what do you perfer?00:13
doctor_or suggest?00:13
tertuI don't run an IRC server, so I don't really have an opinion there and I guess I can't help you past saying "there are IRC servers", sorry00:14

melaniei have just installed kubuntu 12.04 on a dell vostro 1000 for a friend. unfortunately, audio does not seem to be working. would anyone here be able to assist with this?00:29
Avihaymelanie: use lspci to find out what the audio card model is, then try to google issues on that00:36
Avihayalso kmix had issues, you might want to try using pavcontrol to adjust the volume at first00:37
melanieAvihay: i have already done both, but so far to no avail00:38
sithlord48melanie:  aslamixer 00:38
melanieyes, i've also messed with alsamixer many times00:39
sithlord48melanie:  or system settings->multimedia-> audio settings -> audio device settings  check the different devices and try the speakers.00:39
melaniesithlord48: unfortunately, i've done that, too00:40
sithlord48sorry thats last part should be audio and video settings -> audio hardware setup00:40
melanieyea... i have tried all of that many times, sad to say00:42
sithlord48melanie:  is the sound muted ? (or apper to be) 00:45
melaniesithlord48: it acts like sound is muted, but i is not muted in any settings00:46
sithlord48melanie:  also is the hdmi audio?00:46
melaniethere should be no hdmi audio on this machine... this laptop is 6+ years old00:47
sithlord48melanie:  if possible try the headphone port to see if the names are mixed up .. you may also want to try the veromix widget instead of kmix since its designed to work w/ pulseaudio.00:48
melanieok, i am not familiar with veromix.... i was using pavucontrol, however00:49
melanieit acts like the sound card is recognized, and pavucontrol indicates that audio is being produced, but there is no sound'00:52
melanieaudio under linux sure has not gotten less complex over the years00:52
melanieis it still possible to just simply remove pulseaudio in kubuntu?00:54
sithlord48idk have not tried in some time since here its working. 00:54
sithlord48melanie:  is it outputing to the headphones ? perhaps the lables are backward in the mixer 00:55
melanieyea, it has worked pretty well for me the past 2 years or so, too00:55
melaniesithlord48: i have tried using the headphone jack, but the results are the same00:55
sithlord48melanie:  what about the other sound ports for in and mic? 00:56
melaniesithlord48: i did try plugging speakers into both the mic and heaphones jack, but there was no sound in either case... i have not tried to use a microphone00:57

lordievaderGood morning.08:14
Amanfirehi08:51
Amanfirewhy is the 32 bit version recommended? 08:52
lordievaderHey Amanfire 08:52
lordievaderAmanfire: Is it?08:52
Amanfirehttp://www.kubuntu.org/getkubuntu/download says so08:52
lordievaderDepends on the hardware I'd say.08:52
Amanfirehardware here, under windows, fully supports 64 bit08:52
Unit193There's more to it than that, based on RAM as well.08:53
Amanfirewell please explain08:54
lordievaderFor 64bit you need a cpu that supports is, that is probably why 32bit is recommended. However if you have a cpu that supports 64bit and you are rocking more than 2GB of ram, go for 64bit.08:54
Amanfireok08:55
lordievaderIf you have 2gb or less, it doesn't really matter.08:56
Amanfireumm... ok so I'll grab the 64 bit iso... I'll be using the wubi installer because I'm still on a bios system08:57
Amanfirehowever with the same iso if I upgrade next year to a uefi can I use the same iso?08:57
lordievaderWubi is a curse, don't use it, you'll regret it.08:58
Amanfirewhy so?08:58
lordievaderFor as far as I know UEFI is still a bit of a problem.08:58
lordievaderAmanfire: If you are a beginner and want to try it out it is fine, however when you grow and want to start using Ubu more you'll run into limitations.08:59
Amanfireok09:00
Amanfire& there's no ubuntu that handles uefi at all?09:01
lordievaderAmanfire: Have to say I don't know anything about UEFI, it might work...09:02
lordievaderAmanfire: http://askubuntu.com/questions/91484/how-to-boot-ubuntu-from-efi-uefi09:02
Amanfiregrub efi.... interesting09:03
Amanfirethank you09:03

swordsdoes anyone know what % of desktops run Kubuntu vs. Ubuntu?14:39
leonardocrhola14:51
BluesKajswords, roughly 10% afaik , but the real question is how many run KDE vs gnome/unity ?14:52
BluesKajon linux14:53
swordsBluesKaj: well that was my next question.  Why not run Ubuntu with KDE?14:53
BluesKajkubuntu is ubuntu with kde14:53
swordsso no other differences?14:55
genii!es | leonardocr14:56
ubottuleonardocr: En la mayoría de los canales de Ubuntu, se habla sólo en inglés. Si busca ayuda en español entre al canal #ubuntu-es; escriba "/join #ubuntu-es" (sin comillas) y presione intro.14:56
BluesKajthe apps are different for each DE , but both desktops can run gtk and kde apps14:57

leonardocrthanks14:59
swordsi've heard a lot of flack for the Unity interface on Ubuntu.  i thought GNU fans were more loyal than that.15:03
* BluesKaj shrugs , never cared for gnome , unity woke up a lot of ppl to the benefits of KDE , IMO.15:05

chachanguys, I have a Lenovo ThinkPad L420 and I'm having temp issues since I bought it (almost a year ago). A friend just asked me for my fan speed and we realized that it's about 720RPM17:47
thomas__salut17:48
lordievaderHey thomas__ 17:48
chachanwhich looks slow, we open it out and clean it and still has the same speed, I tried with sensors-detect and pwmconfig to increase the speed, but it seems that my chip or something doesn't support changing speed control to manual, so it's in auto17:49
lordievaderchachan: This might be helpful: http://www.kubuntuforums.net/showthread.php?57279-How-to-Enable-power-management-features17:50
chachanthe problem is that it got 85° degrees (C)17:50

pewtSo, I am wondering if anyone has any real world experiences with Alpha2?21:47
pewtI assume it might be a bit more stable considering it doesn't use any of the Mir stuff from ubuntu. and I already use all the beta/testing repos from KDE opn 13.0421:48
