I have done almost everything, only left is the name of kubuntu that comes on the kde menu and in the muon software centre ? [04:10] what do you mean, rebranding? [04:16] valorie, i am creating custom distro based on kubuntu so i need to remove the kubuntu logos and name. [04:17] huh [04:17] valorie, what happened ? [04:18] I have no clue, but you might see how other custom distros do it [04:18] I assume they create their own logos and sub them [04:18] valorie, are their any kubuntu derivatives ? [04:19] have you looked at sites like http://www.howtoforge.com/creating-a-kde-live-cd-dvd-using-kubuntu ? [04:19] sure, I know netrunner is one [04:20] and I guess Mint [04:20] this is the official guide: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DerivativeDistroHowto [04:21] valorie, that link will be useful, i can check netrunner and how they have done. [04:21] why do you want a completely custom distro? [04:23] valorie, i want to make my own distro will customized settings. [04:30] xtriz: most of the branding is done by kubuntu-settings, so you'll want to replace that with a copy of your defaults [04:30] yofel, great checking that out [04:32] yofel, all the kubuntu related branding are in this packaged ? [04:35] not sure if it's all, but most of the desktop stuff is in there (like the menu logo etc.) [04:36] yofel, cool :) [04:56] yofel, figured everything out, now only one thing left is that, in muon software center do i have to modify the package so as to remove the provided by Kubuntu ? === spawn[dead] is now known as spawn57 [05:32] yofel, prob solved :) === jalcine_ is now known as jalcine [05:48] for gnome their is dconf editor , for kde is their something similar to it ? [05:53] xtriz: it looks like gnome's is actuall gconf editor [05:54] and dconf is more generic [05:54] valorie, ok [05:55] although a lot of that is set in systemsettings [05:55] to cuztomize kde themes is a prob know as it doesn't have dconf or gconf editor. [05:56] did you see this? http://techbase.kde.org/Development/Tutorials/Plasma/Theme [05:57] there is also kreadconfig and kwriteconfig, but those are not as advanced as gconf or dconf [05:58] valorie, that is quite useful, i can directly place the themes under the respective folders and tada it's done :D [05:59] tsimpson, checking those out. [05:59] KDE is created to be customizeable === jalcine is now known as jalcine_ [06:02] valorie, in a similar way i can customize application appearance and workspace appearance too right ? [06:03] yes [06:03] most apps use the themes you choose [06:03] some might have their own theming, but that is usually independent stuff [06:04] valorie, what is the general directory under which all this options are stored ? [06:04] I don't know; isn't it covered in the theming tut? [06:04] /usr/share / [06:06] got the directory /share/app/desktoptheme [06:07] I've never done what you are attempting [06:07] * valorie is pretty satisfied with the presets [06:07] valorie, ok :) [06:07] except desktop photos [06:08] :) === saheb is now known as sahebpreet === roman is now known as Guest26634 === spawn57 is now known as spawn[dead] === root is now known as Guest73559 [09:20] hi [09:21] Hey infrid === gil is now known as Guest49177 [10:03] Hey guys, what is the command , if I want to say have when I press the windows key it opens the kick off apllication launcher ? [10:03] [10:04] frosted: The windows key (super key) is a modifier like shift or ctrl, so the keyboard shortcut won't be the windows key alone (unless you apply hacks). [10:04] a modifier key* [10:05] lordievar okay thats fine but if I want a keyboard shortcut to open the kickoff aplication launcher, what is the command I need to enter to open the menu ? [10:06] lordievader okay thats fine but if I want a keyboard shortcut to open the kickoff aplication launcher, what is the command I need to enter to open the menu ? [10:07] frosted: Thought there was a preset for it but I cannot find it, let me look through qdbus. [10:08] I thought there was one as well. but after I installed I have nothing on my panel had to add everything manually. usually things like system status is atleast there [10:14] frosted: Ah, found it, when you right click the menu and hit Application Launcher Settings -> Keyboard shortcut, you can set the keyboard shortcut.

[16:23] from thumstick [16:24] Ok, using a Kubuntu image I presume? Not by installing Ubuntu and then installing the kubuntu-desktop package or something. [16:24] no [16:24] kubuntu iso [16:24] What version? [16:24] from offical page [16:24] newest [16:24] upgradet [16:25] maybe should reinstall kde [16:25] ? [16:25] dany: Yes you could try reinstalling the kubuntu-desktop package (don't think it will help much, but worth a shot). [16:27] i put system to install kubuntu-desktop [16:28] will see [16:28] what about light entry list [16:28] where can find configuration file? [16:29] done already [16:29] now restarting [16:29] dany: Not sure how he generates that, I think he gets it from XSession.

[16:32] its not [16:32] its unity [16:33] changed [16:33] dany: Then change it ;) "sudo nano /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf" [16:33] lets [16:33] see [16:33] thanks man for y help [16:33] dany: No problem ;) [16:34] how could that happen :P [16:34] kde get uninstalled ? [16:34] wird think, never happened to me before [16:35] dany: That is a very good question. Did you clean out packages or something? [16:35] not [16:35] only installed few thinks [16:35] thanks guys [16:40] why is that some services get started as a root and some do not ? [16:40] any specific reasons ? [16:41] xtriz: Probably permission. [16:41] lordievader, but i am already doing it as a root [16:41] xtriz: What do you mean? [16:41] Since the script you are attempting to invoke has been converted to an [16:41] Upstart job, you may also use the status(8) utility, e.g. status cups [16:41] when i am doing /etc/init.d/cups start i am getting the above error. [16:42] i am doing this as a root [16:42] xtriz: sudo service cups start [16:42] lordievader, i am customizing kubuntu, so i am doing all this things under chroot. [16:43] creating custom live cd [16:43] xtriz: Ok, then why would you need to start the cups service? [16:44] lordievader, i has to start ssh to transfer certain files, so i was just curious whether i can start cups or not. === jalcine_ is now known as jalcine [16:44] now this error has made me curious to know what goes under the hood such that cups service don't get started as a root. [16:44] xtriz: What does "service cups status" say? [16:45] lordievader, nothing [16:45] and service cups starts also states nothing, just returns the prompt back. [16:45] I believe that it should still start even if you use /etc/init.d/, it just says that Ubuntu uses upstart. [16:45] lordievader, hope so, let me check that out. [16:46] xtriz: Well it might be the chroot thingie that upstart isn't running or something. Never tried to start a service from within a chroot. [16:46] lordievader, if i just copy paste the various config files ( themes ) of my current kubuntu install will that work ? [16:47] xtriz: Themes of what? [16:47] i have customized panels and window decorations [16:48] They will probably work, just that you need to figure out how to modify the config files. === kubuntu is now known as Guest38768 === Guest38768 is now known as kaddi [16:49] what is a good place to upload screenshots for illustration? [16:49] lordievader, to be more precise , the stuff under i.e. application appearance and workspace appearance [16:49] !paste | kaddi [16:49] kaddi: For posting multi-line texts into the channel, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use http://imagebin.org/?page=add | !pastebinit to paste directly from command line | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic. [16:49] ty [16:50] xtriz: Same thing, find out how to modify the config files. [16:51] lordievader, where can i find the config files of those ? [16:52] googling for each options. [16:52] xtriz: That is the tricky part, the default user doesn't exist (yet). It is made by casper during the boot process. So what I think you should do, is make a new user, hack the part where the default user is made. And then change the config files. [16:53] xtriz: See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization#Removing_the_.28Casper.29_Autologin [16:54] lordievader, it works :) super awesome :) [16:54] the cups job did work on the complete build. [16:54] it got started but it was not showing. === spawn[dead] is now known as spawn57 [16:58] lordievader, you meant to say is that remove the auto login and add a user, and under it i copy all the config files ? [16:59] xtriz: Something like that yes. [17:04] lordievader, is that possible to create a setup such that the config files are applied automatically to the new user created ? [17:05] can i do that i can copy the complete config files with my desired files ? [17:05] s/copy/replace ? [17:05] xtriz: Possibly, not a way I know of though... [17:07] lordievader, or can i do that in chroot , get the GUI run and then select the appropriate options ? [17:09] Don't think that last one is a very plausible one. [17:10] :9 [17:10] :( [17:10] then how can i customized themes ? [17:11] kdereadconfig or kdewriteconfig ? i am losing now , tried everything i knew.
