=== lex is now known as Guest45497 [00:50] firefox is already running, but is not responding.... how do i I fix this? [00:52] I use top to see which process (PID) is assigned to firefox... then use the kill command ...but, then firefox process shows up still [00:55] boa noite a todos! [01:21] dues dudes dudes [01:22] Who knows how to install Kde Connect? :( [01:26] Guest37394: http://larsemil.se/small-howto-on-kde-connect-and-ubuntu/ [01:27] Guest37394: There's a version in the Saucy repos, but that one is a bit old, so the git version is probably the way to go right now. === Guest37394 is now known as soul === soul is now known as Guest98511 [01:29] Addle: i've tried but I get errors... Is the first time I try to install something this way [01:30] Guest98511: Ah, I see. I haven't tried to compile it myself, yet (still on an older version of KDE). [01:31] Addle: Thanks for answering :) [01:31] Guest98511: np, hope you manage to get it working. :) [01:32] debfan: there are more "deadly" signals you can send to firefox then kill(15), try killing it with signal 9 (term?) in top, press k, enter the pid followed by enter, then 9, then enter [01:32] right, right... thanks... [01:32] it eventually worked [01:33] you can also do it from kde's System monitor (ksysgurd) [01:33] oh, yhe, firefox does take it's time to shut down [01:35] yes, that's right... doh ;) thanks, again [01:35] and 'killall firefox?' [01:35] but, it had already worked - finally ;) === soul is now known as Guest93106 === xtriz is now known as Guest39656 === greg_ is now known as greg-r === JMichaelX is now known as VonGreiffenklau === zaphod is now known as Guest16347 === Guest16347 is now known as zabeeble [05:53] Can anyone help me with a problem with my time zone? === guilherme is now known as Guest94422 [05:54] zabeeble: if you say what your problem is, you are more likely to get help [05:55] When I go to select my time zone in the system settings, only UTC shows up. [05:55] hmmm, I wonder if you are missing tzdata? [05:55] i did 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure tzdata'. that didn't help [05:56] what did it say after you did that? [05:57] It said: [05:57] Current default time zone: 'America/New_York' [05:57] Local time is now: Sun Oct 13 01:56:52 EDT 2013. [05:57] Universal Time is now: Sun Oct 13 05:56:52 UTC 2013. [05:58] but my time still reads as 5:56 in the morning [05:58] on the clock, that is [05:58] ah, in the clock on your panel? === VonGreiffenklau is now known as JMichaelX [05:58] right [05:58] right-click the clock and reset the tz there === JMichaelX is now known as TrevorCory [05:59] clock settings, not 'set date and time' [05:59] I've had the same problem a couple of times [05:59] that's the problem. when i right click and chose "Adjust Date and Time", there is nothing listed but UTC [05:59] don't adjust date and time [06:00] clock settings [06:00] only UTC listed there, too. [06:01] i'm sorry for the trouble. i'm kinda new at this. [06:01] in clock settings ALL the time zones are there [06:02] and you check which you want to display [06:02] Only UTC is listed and checked. [06:02] woah, which kubuntu version are you using, and which clock applet/widget? [06:03] * valorie uses the digital clock on Raring (13.04) [06:04] it's the digital clock. i'm not sure how to find which version of kubuntu i'm using [06:04] you don't remember? [06:05] hmmm [06:05] !version [06:05] To find out what version of Ubuntu you have, type « lsb_release -a » in a !shell - To know the available version of a package, « apt-cache policy » [06:05] there ya go [06:05] ah! thank you! [06:06] it's 13.04 [06:06] that is just the weirdest [06:07] I can't imagine why all the zones aren't listed [06:07] :) neither can i. lol but i appreciate your help. [06:07] well, I didn't help [06:08] you tried, though. that's good enough. [06:08] you have tzdata, and that should be all you need [06:08] pfff [06:08] lol [06:08] /usr/share/zoneinfo/ [06:08] you might try installing another clock, and see if it also lacks timezones [06:08] if so, it's got to be a missing packages [06:09] Unit193: did you read up? [06:09] zabeeble did 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure tzdata' and got a good readout [06:10] the analog clock also only lists UTC in the time zone listing [06:10] Yeah, saw that. Logged out and back in? `date` return something good too? No TZ= in ~/.bashrc or environment? [06:11] * valorie hands the problem over to Unit193, who obviously has more indepth knowledge [06:12] Bad idea, I'm about to check the dryer along with other stuff, you know KDE better too. :) [06:13] there's supposed to be a .bashrc in my home directory? [06:14] because i don't have one. [06:14] yes, you'll have to allow dolphin to display hidden files to see it [06:14] i did the display hidden files. it's not there. can i generate one? [06:14] all files beginning with a dot are hidden by default [06:15] Default is in /etc/skel/ [06:15] if i copy/paste it, will that work? [06:17] Not likely to be related, default doesn't declare TZ. [06:17] gotcha. well, i guess i'll have to get used to subtracting 5 hours off my clock. lol [06:19] how about `date` in a konsole? [06:19] this is even more weird. date has the correct time @ 2:19 [06:20] Does Kubuntu keep it's files in .config/kde or something? Could move (so, backup, delete) those and re-login. [06:20] i think the only problem i have is not having a list of time zones to choose from in the clock settings [06:23] zabeeble: I just looked at my ~/.bashrc and saw nothing about tzdata there [06:23] I've edited it before, and never seen tz anything there [06:24] okay. i renamed .kde to .kde.old. gonna restart and see if anything happens. [06:24] peace, people. thanks for your help. :) [06:27] valorie: Yes, as stated, more useful to set in there if you don't have root access, and the host is in UTC or something. Syntax: TZ="America/New_York". You can also call date prefixed with that to change the time for the one call. [06:27] worth a try [06:27] Unit193: interesting [06:31] one of the things I love about linux is the endless ways to solve problems [06:31] even tiny corner-cases [06:34] `date` is a very useful program, once you learn of the -d option, or changing timezones/output formats. date -d "Next Tuesday 12PM" actually works. :) === zaphod_ is now known as zabeeble [06:37] i'm back. renaming .kde and rebooting didn't help. :( [07:41] hello everyone, I want to make a route to eth2 to eth0, eth0 is a lan also I will use that adapter for sharing my internet access, actually is a kind of nat network but I am not sure how can I do that [08:00] Hello all, I have some questions, so is there anyone willing to help? [08:01] xxx: normally you have to ask a question so people know if they can help. [08:01] oh, ok. :) [08:04] So, I got a laptop with Win8 preinstalled on it. I managed to install Ubuntu 13.04 on dual boot and everything was working ok. Then I changed my and wanted to change Ubuntu with Kubuntu. So I deleted and formated all partitions with Ubuntu on it and restarted Win8. Then I started up try Kubuntu and went on manual partitioning, made partitions for Kubuntu and started installation. At th [08:05] At the end of the installation I got a grub error, http://img4.imagetitan.com/img.php?image=8_error.png [08:05] When I entered my BIOS, I found out there is a boot of for Ubuntu, even though I deleted all partitions containing Ubuntu [08:06] Is there a chance to remove this Ubuntu boot, as I think this might be the problem. === Guest39656 is now known as xtriz [08:22] !efi | xxx [08:22] xxx: UEFI is a specification that defines a software interface between an operating system and platform firmware, it is meant as a replacement for the BIOS. For information on how to set up and install Ubuntu and its derivatives on UEFI machines please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI [08:23] you are better off just installing kubuntu from a liveDVD or LiveUSB [08:23] the mediubuntu project has been shutdown. What to do???? [08:23] rather than trying to install using wubi [08:24] ignerious: what do you need from mediabuntu? [08:24] the various packages you need are usually still available [08:25] valorie: the extra packages like unsopported media codecs [08:25] valorie: they are not availiable else where [08:25] those which still work are still hosted elsewhere [08:25] those which no longer work have died [08:26] Kubuntu is hosting some stuff, as is the VLC project [08:26] would be nice if the mediabuntu devels told people where to find stuff, though [08:27] ask for what you want, and we'll try to help you find it [08:27] valorie: thanks [08:27] valorie: but how can i find those packages [08:28] kubuntu-restricted-extras has a lot of stuff in it [08:28] do you run kubuntu? [08:28] valorie: but not the all [08:28] valorie: yeah [08:28] ok, what are you missing? [08:29] oh, there is now kubuntu-restricted-addons as well [08:29] valorie: w64codecs libdvdcss2 non-free-codecs mencoder ffmpeg libavcodec-extra-53 flvtool2 libdvdnav4 libdvdread4 gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad geoclue gstreamer1.0-plugins-base gstreamer1.0-plugins-good gstreamer1.0-plugins-bad frei0r-plugins [08:29] check that out [08:30] we have all the gst plugins [08:30] Hm, everything seems to be in order with my preinstallation setup for Kubuntu.

[08:32] ok, thanks a lot anyway. :) [08:33] mencoder, ffmpeg, libavcodec-extra-53 are all available [08:35] flvtool2, libdvdnav4, libdvdread4, geoclue, and frei0r-plugins are available as well [08:35] so everything on your list, ignerious [08:36] with the possible exception of non-free-codecs -- that's a package name I haven't seen in years [08:42] oh, and the w64codecs [08:43] http://www.deb-multimedia.org/dists/unstable/non-free/binary-amd64/package/w64codecs [08:43] you can install from the deb, though [08:45] see also: https://wiki.debian.org/MultimediaCodecs [08:46] ignerious: ^^^ [08:48] err no [08:48] that's from debian [08:48] right, it's a pain to install a deb, but it can be done [08:49] err no [08:49] you don't do it [08:49] it's just that simple [08:49] I can't see a need, but ignerious evidently does [08:49] ikonia: ? [08:50] what [08:50] I've done it in times past [08:50] so ? [08:51] valorie, ignerious: Medibuntu shutdown in part because it was unmaintained, and the rest was that most of the packages in there had better replacements now, only thing that didn't is libdvdcss2, and that's in the videolan repo now. [08:51] yes, as I explained above [08:52] Bah, didn't see, sorry. [08:53] our packagers are awesome, and if something is needful, usually they will find a way to make it available [08:53] valorie: sorry gone for lunch [08:53] valorie: :) [08:55] our friends at videolan are awesome as well, and I should have used that name instead of their best-known product name, VLC [08:55] valorie: hmm Now i have got the answer [08:56] valorie: thanks [08:56] my pleasure [08:56] valorie, Unit193: could you please tell me all the replacement packages [08:57] I have a list, above [08:58] most everything is available as you listed it, or in the kubuntu-restricted packages I mentioned [08:58] the exceptions I gave you links for [08:59] valorie, Unit193: great :) [09:00] if you still want that old w64 package, PLEASE read the debian wiki about it [09:01] the warnings are there; use at your own rist [09:01] risk [09:01] valorie:hmm [09:02] personally, if I needed such old packages, I would be running debian [09:03] Good morning.

Did you use that in Windows before you installed Kubuntu? [18:08] yes, I did, Im so used to it.. :o) [18:08] Unfortunately, Kubuntu is not Windows, so perhaps you should get used to a different image viewer.
