xtriz | hi guys :D | 06:14 |
hateball | hello to you | 06:14 |
xtriz | i created custom Kubuntu, now should i remove the kubuntu related files or i can keep it ? | 06:14 |
xtriz | hi hateball :) | 06:14 |
xtriz | for eg, i customized plymouth theme, just changing logo and images, hence leaving the same kubuntu script. So is that ok ? or i should change where ever kubuntu is mentioned in that script ? | 06:15 |

=== saheb is now known as sahebpreet | ||
tsimpson | xtriz: it's probably a good idea to change the branding if you create a custom spin-off | 06:41 |
xtriz | tsimpson, ok | 06:42 |
xtriz | tsimpson, thanks :) | 06:43 |
xtriz | can i set the default theme i need to set from the kubuntu-settings-desktop ? | 06:49 |
tsimpson | if you want, sure | 06:54 |
tsimpson | Kubuntu generally uses whatever the KDE default is anyway | 06:54 |
xtriz | tsimpson, great | 06:58 |
xtriz | tsimpson, if in the config files i am replacing the dir with /usr/share/kubuntu-default-settings/ with /usr/share/my_custom_default-settings/ | 06:58 |
xtriz | then will the directory of /my_custom-default-settings/ will be automatically created ? | 06:59 |
tsimpson | xtriz: I don't think so | 07:03 |
xtriz | tsimpson, that means i need to create all those directories. ok | 07:03 |

raulduke | somehow I disinsstalled it acidently | 07:26 |
alvin_ | What's the current Twitter client of choice for Kubuntu? | 07:27 |
alvin_ | raulduke: personally, I have been using aptitude since 2004, and there have never been any problems. The graphical package manager changes almost every release. I think the current one is called "muon". | 07:28 |
alvin_ | i kubuntu-desktop Recommends muon | 07:29 |
raulduke | tank u | 07:29 |
raulduke | but it's really ugly this muon | 07:29 |
alvin_ | I have no idea. Never started it. | 07:31 |

alvin_ | Haven't tried that one either. Are the devices shown, but not mounted? | 07:42 |
alvin_ | Will there be a new version of Kubuntu Active? I've tried the daily two days ago. It was a disaster. | 07:43 |

parta | hi everyone | 09:57 |
parta | I was looking to install kubuntu and got this page | 09:57 |
parta | http://www.kubuntu.org/getkubuntu | 09:57 |
parta | but i am already on ubuntu, this page assumes that the user is coming from other operating systems. It will be awesome if this also has link to get kubuntu repos | 09:58 |
lordievader | parta: You already have the kubuntu repos ;) | 09:58 |
lordievader | parta: Simply run "sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop" to install the kubuntu desktop :) | 09:58 |
parta | but generally backports and others are not enabled | 09:59 |
tsimpson | you don't need them to install stock kubuntu | 09:59 |

eagles0513875 | hey guys does the calendar feature in kontact if setup to use google calendar does it auto sync betwee what I have there and what I am putting on the calendar here | 10:03 |
monkeyjuice | ive used thunderbird to do that eagles0513875 | 10:14 |
alvin | eagles0513875: It used to work, yes. I'm no longer using it though. Too risky putting your data on USA servers. | 10:17 |
alvin | (So, yes, it'll probably still work) | 10:18 |
eagles0513875 | what other alternatives do i have to sync calendars between an android device and linux? | 10:18 |
eagles0513875 | unless i host my own calendar on my own server. | 10:18 |
alvin | There are no alternatives to hosting your own server. No free ones at least. There's https://mykolab.com/ | 10:20 |
eagles0513875 | i do have a server so that wouldnt be a problem | 10:21 |
alvin | Then I think it's more important to know what actually works on Android. Kubuntu (Akonadi) has good standards support. | 10:22 |
alvin | There's simply no comparison between Kmail and the Android mail app. (Please, please, let Kubuntu Active be active again.) | 10:23 |
alvin | There was talk about the Kubuntu developers working together with Kolab, but nothing was heard after the initial annoucnement some years ago. | 10:27 |
alvin | eagles0513875: I haven't thought about http://runners-id.com/ yet. Maybe you'd like to try that? 2GB free, and based on Owncloud, which has clients for Kubuntu. | 10:49 |
jussi | alvin: everything on mykolab is able to be run on your own server... | 10:53 |
alvin | Indeed. If you manage to install Kolab. My own installation is still Kolab2 on OpenPKG. | 10:53 |
alvin | There was talk about cooperation between Kubuntu and Kolab, but at the moment their platform of choice is RedHat/CentOS. There are no Kolab packages in Debian/Ubuntu repo's. | 10:54 |
alvin | (no working or up-to-date packages that is) | 10:54 |

BluesKaj | hey skreech__ | 11:54 |
hackndoes_ | Hi guys a small question, when should an automatic upgrade to 13.10 be available? | 11:54 |
BluesKaj | hackndoes_. sometime tomorrow . if your package manager/updater is set to do so | 11:57 |
hackndoes_ | BluesKaj: what do you mean by meant to do so? | 11:57 |
BluesKaj | set not meant | 11:58 |
hackndoes_ | yes sorry, what do you mean by set to do so? | 11:58 |
BluesKaj | to upgrade to the next release | 11:59 |
hackndoes_ | BluesKaj: my realease upgrade category in software sources is set to Normal | 11:59 |
hackndoes_ | is that OK? | 11:59 |
hackndoes_ | will this release come with the 3.11 kernel? | 12:00 |
BluesKaj | no , you have to find the setting in the package manager , or use the terminal and do , sudo do-release-upgrade | 12:01 |
hackndoes_ | BluesKaj: which setting do I need to find in muon? | 12:01 |
BluesKaj | I Imagine it's full upgrade , dunno for sure | 12:02 |
BluesKaj | when the new release is available , I do know that this works in the terminal , sudo do-release-upgrade , hackndoes_ | 12:04 |
hackndoes_ | I find under software sources -> updates -> release upgrade -> "Normal Releases or Never or LTS" and I have Normal Releases selected | 12:04 |
hackndoes_ | BluesKaj: OK thanks. nothing else to do than that command? it's a single command that does the magic? | 12:05 |
BluesKaj | hackndoes_. yes if the release is available in the repos | 12:05 |
hackndoes_ | great thanks | 12:05 |
BluesKaj | hackndoes_. you might need some patience , sometimes it takes some time in my experience | 12:06 |
hackndoes_ | BluesKaj: that's OK I will do it when I am not on the computer giving it as much time as it needs. so you say I should try it tomorrow.... I will | 12:07 |
BluesKaj | hackndoes_. make sure you do a regular update and dist-upgrade before running the do-release-upgrade command , to make sure you present packages are in an upgraded state. | 12:13 |
hackndoes_ | BluesKaj: thanks a lot man I will | 12:14 |
hackndoes_ | BluesKaj: appreciate it | 12:14 |
BluesKaj | np | 12:14 |

Macer | it seems like it is a known issue | 15:10 |
Macer | dolphin can't seem to properly pass a method for video players to stream the video | 15:10 |
Macer | it can't do it. it's borked | 15:11 |
Macer | and even if it did manage to work. it does some idiocy like copying an entire file to a tmp dir then opening it | 15:11 |
Macer | the smb support in dolphin is horrid | 15:11 |
Macer | there also seems to be a problem wtih the built in wifi in this dell inspiron. i don't know what this proprietary module is doing but it totally destroys my 2.4GHz side of my router | 15:12 |

xtriz | other than that i have kept the package as it is with no changes. | 17:03 |

dolomite | I wouldn't even call it "building your own distro" lol | 17:04 |
xtriz | ikonia, because kubuntu is a trademark and i need to consult them before i do anything. | 17:04 |

BluesKaj | rodnice. what are you editing there? | 19:40 |
rodnice | http://trac.jackaudio.org/wiki/WalkThrough/User/PulseOnJack | 19:40 |
rodnice | BluesKaj: I'm trying to feed Pulse to Jack | 19:41 |
lordievader | rodnice: May I ask why? | 19:41 |
rodnice | lordievader: So I can have audio play with diverse latencies programs | 19:42 |
BluesKaj | rodnice. my understanding about jack , which is very limited , is that youdon't need pulse | 19:42 |
rodnice | play VLC tutorial while using Ardour | 19:42 |
rodnice | BluesKaj: I'm not going to disagree with you since I need a good 2 years before I get used to Linux, but pro audio programs steal the sound and never relinquish it | 19:43 |
rodnice | bullies | 19:43 |
lordievader | rodnice: Not another pc/tablet around by any chance? | 19:43 |
rodnice | lordievader: Actually I didn't notice it on mines until my friend noticed it on his. We both jumped into Linux several weeks ago on our laptops. | 19:44 |
BluesKaj | yes rodnice , linux audio , especially the pro stuff is very arcane and difficult for laymen like me to understand | 19:44 |
=== paulo is now known as paulovap | ||
lordievader | rodnice: Imo it is more toruble that it is worth. | 19:46 |
rodnice | noooo!!! You guys are my role models! don't tell me that now! lol | 19:48 |
rodnice | there has to be a solution! | 19:48 |
ikonia | pro-audio + linux = fail | 19:49 |
rodnice | BluesKaj: what is the "kdesudo kate" command? I would never have thought to do that. | 19:50 |
BluesKaj | rodnice. what are you trying to do, setup a recording method with various inputs on your computer | 19:50 |
lordievader | ^ that, for me it's one of the reasons to keep Windows around on my laptop. The other being photo-editing. | 19:51 |
lordievader | The ^ was referring to ikonia's comment. | 19:51 |
BluesKaj | alt+F2 , the enter the command I posted in the textbox aks krunner / run command | 19:51 |
BluesKaj | then enter | 19:51 |
BluesKaj | rodnice.^ | 19:52 |
rodnice | BluesKaj: I just want to hear audio from Hydrogen and something like VLC simultaneously | 19:52 |
BluesKaj | why simultaneosly ? | 19:52 |
rodnice | BluesKaj: watch a tutorial while using the software | 19:52 |
BluesKaj | use the tutorial on computer and run the coomands etc on the other , your friend's | 19:53 |
rodnice | BluesKaj: yeah my setup logic probably makes no sense to begin with | 19:55 |
BluesKaj | correction ;read the turtorial on one computer , run the commands on the other, rodnice | 19:55 |
rodnice | BluesKaj: Pro audio setups I guess don't really share with any other unnecessary programs | 19:56 |
BluesKaj | if you guys are serious look into something like ubuntu-studio , rodnice | 19:58 |
rodnice | BluesKaj: I kinda sort of am. Looking at this line: Redirecting PulseAudio to JACK | 19:58 |
rodnice | On Debian-like systems, be sure to install pulseaudio-module-jack. (TODO: Add information about Fedora, OpenSuSE and the lot) | 19:58 |
rodnice | Then, use the following configuration if you intend to run jackd all the time: | 19:58 |
rodnice | ~/.pulse/default.pa: | 19:58 |
rodnice | BluesKaj: How do I access ~/.pulse/default.pa? | 19:59 |
rodnice | it seems empty | 19:59 |
BluesKaj | rodnice. in your /home/user enable hidden files | 20:00 |
rodnice | BluesKaj: sweet! OK | 20:01 |
rodnice | BluesKaj: Grrr... I'm attempting to use the windows method :-( | 20:02 |
rodnice | Windows* | 20:02 |
BluesKaj | rodnice. ~/ is short for /home/user | 20:02 |
rodnice | BluesKaj: thanx, that was in the book I read but I need to keep practicing | 20:03 |
BluesKaj | look in dolphin view > enable hidden files , if you installed default.pa | 20:03 |
BluesKaj | i don't have that file | 20:04 |
rodnice | BluesKaj: OK got it | 20:04 |
rodnice | BluesKaj: And.... I'm no good :-( Directory isn't on my system either | 20:05 |
rodnice | BluesKaj: I guess tomorrow is another day | 20:05 |
BluesKaj | rodnice. ok | 20:06 |
rodnice | BluesKaj: brings me to what lordievader said about Windows | 20:07 |
rodnice | Can I have a Linux system host a Windows 7 one? | 20:07 |
BluesKaj | yes , in VirtualBox ...I ran windows7 on it for a while | 20:08 |
BluesKaj | VB is just one of many virtual machines one can use on linux | 20:09 |
rodnice | BluesKaj: OK, so I would get Virtual Box from the download center and go from there, correct? | 20:16 |
apb | I don't seem to have printer manager installed... | 20:22 |
apb | so I did an apt-get install print-manager ... but it doesn't show up on the K menu | 20:22 |
PimpSmurf | Kubuntu 13.04 and 13.10 beta 2 confirmed not to boot on the Lenovo Yoga 2 Pro (Intel Graphics HD4400) | 20:26 |
lordievader | rodnice: You don't want to run pro-audio within a VM... | 20:30 |
lordievader | rodnice: For pro-audio you want your program to be as close to the hardware as possible. When you run your program inside a vm you add another virtualization layer in between program <-> hardware. | 20:33 |
lordievader | rodnice: Also the ~/.pulse folder is empty by default. That folder is for user-configs of PulseAudio. I.e. if you want certain settings different from the system-wide config and only on your account you would place them in ~/.pulse/ | 20:36 |
rodnice | lordievader: Thanks much! The VM thing was another challenge I was planning on tackling before I start bragging of Linux to my Windows-only friends. | 20:40 |
rodnice | lordievader: I wasn't going to try to have such a complex setup on this old laptop :-D | 20:41 |
rodnice | lordievader: ~/.pulse/ does not exist on my system at the moment though. I guess I need to do my research into that | 20:41 |
rodnice | lordievader: I'll return again on some other day. Thanx for all the help | 20:46 |

Macer | hm | 21:29 |
Macer | bluedevil is malfunctioning | 21:29 |
Macer | the wizard for DUN and PAN won't start | 21:29 |
Macer | linux: 20 years later and basic functionality still doesn't work heh | 21:29 |
PimpSmurf | I finally got kubuntu 13.10beta2 installed by using acpi_backlight=vendor. Install went without error, however when it reboots, it hangs at the grub prompt. | 21:48 |
PimpSmurf | Is there something I can do to help? | 21:48 |
Addle | PimpSmurf: Do you mean it drops you at a grub> prompt? | 21:49 |
PimpSmurf | yes | 21:49 |
Addle | PimpSmurf: I fixed that by using boot-repair. Whoever wrote that deserves a medal. :) | 21:49 |
PimpSmurf | the grub command? | 21:50 |
Addle | PimpSmurf: Just make sure to disable stupid Secure Boot. | 21:50 |
Addle | PimpSmurf: No, let me find a web page for it... sec... | 21:50 |
Addle | PimpSmurf: Basically, boot into the bootable DVD, install boot-repair and follow instructions exactly. | 21:50 |
PimpSmurf | ok | 21:50 |
PimpSmurf | I already disabled secure boot. I'm guessing linux isn't secureboot friendly. | 21:51 |
Addle | PimpSmurf: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair | 21:51 |
PimpSmurf | first computer with secure boot | 21:51 |
PimpSmurf | TY Addle | 21:51 |
Addle | PimpSmurf: Sure didn't work out for me with SecureBoot. But my buddy's Win8 boots and seems to run fine without it. Better without that abomination, anyways. | 21:51 |
Addle | PimpSmurf: You're welcome :) | 21:51 |
Addle | PimpSmurf: You can probably technically boot your system from that grub> prompt, BTW. For me, with the drive being the EFI partition and using GPT, "configfile (hd0,gpt2)/EFI/kubuntu/grub.cfg" worked. You can ls the contents with, for example ls to see the partitions and ls (hd0,gpt2)/ for seeing GPT partition 2. But anyways, boot-repair from DVD should fix it. | 21:54 |
soee | also dont use beta2 but the final :) | 21:56 |
Addle | soee: Oh, it's out! Thought that was tomorrow. Time zones, I guess. Sweet... | 21:58 |
soee | Addle, not yet | 21:58 |
Addle | soee: Did they fix those boot issues? Was a bit annoying. | 21:58 |
soee | but the current iso is final | 21:58 |
Addle | soee: Ah, ok. Thanks for the info. | 21:58 |
soee | Addle, i just tested few installation options, they all worked just fine | 21:59 |
Addle | soee: Good stuff :) | 21:59 |
soee | and boot laso | 21:59 |
soee | *also | 21:59 |
Daskreech | apb: Still here? did you get the Akonadi figured out? | 23:38 |
