xtrizi created custom Kubuntu, now should i remove the kubuntu related files or i can keep it ?06:14
xtrizhi hateball :)06:14
xtrizfor 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

xtriztsimpson, 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
xtrizthen will the directory of /my_custom-default-settings/ will be automatically created ?06:59
tsimpsonxtriz: I don't think so07:03

rauldukesomehow I disinsstalled it acidently07:26
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 muon07:29

partahi everyone09:57
partaI was looking to install kubuntu and got this page09:57
partahttp://www.kubuntu.org/getkubuntu09:57
partabut 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 repos09:58
lordievaderparta: You already have the kubuntu repos ;)09:58
lordievaderparta: Simply run "sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop" to install the kubuntu desktop :)09:58

eagles0513875hey 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 here10:03
monkeyjuiceive used thunderbird to do that eagles051387510:14
alvineagles0513875: 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
eagles0513875what other alternatives do i have to sync calendars between an android device and linux?10:18
eagles0513875unless i host my own calendar on my own server.10:18
alvinThere are no alternatives to hosting your own server. No free ones at least. There's https://mykolab.com/10:20
eagles0513875i do have a server so that wouldnt be a problem10:21
alvinThen I think it's more important to know what actually works on Android. Kubuntu (Akonadi) has good standards support.10:22
alvinThere's simply no comparison between Kmail and the Android mail app. (Please, please, let Kubuntu Active be active again.)10:23
alvinThere was talk about the Kubuntu developers working together with Kolab, but nothing was heard after the initial annoucnement some years ago.10:27
alvineagles0513875: 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
jussialvin: everything on mykolab is able to be run on your own server...10:53
alvinIndeed. If you manage to install Kolab. My own installation is still Kolab2 on OpenPKG.10:53
alvinThere 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

hackndoes_Hi guys a small question, when should an automatic upgrade to 13.10 be available?11:54
BluesKajhackndoes_. sometime tomorrow . if your package manager/updater is set to do so11:57
hackndoes_BluesKaj: what do you mean by meant to do so?11:57
BluesKajset not meant11:58
hackndoes_yes sorry, what do you mean by set to do so?11:58
BluesKajto upgrade to the next release11:59
hackndoes_BluesKaj: my realease upgrade category in software sources is set to Normal11:59
hackndoes_is that OK?11:59
hackndoes_will this release come with the 3.11 kernel?12:00
BluesKajno , you have to find the setting in the package manager , or use the terminal and do , sudo do-release-upgrade12:01
hackndoes_BluesKaj: which setting do I need to find in muon?12:01
BluesKajI Imagine it's full upgrade , dunno for sure12:02
BluesKajwhen 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 selected12:04
hackndoes_BluesKaj: OK thanks. nothing else to do than that command? it's a single command that does the magic?12:05
BluesKajhackndoes_. yes if the release is available in the repos12:05
hackndoes_great thanks12:05
BluesKajhackndoes_. you might need some patience , sometimes it takes some time in my experience12:06
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 will12:07
BluesKajhackndoes_. 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 will12:14
hackndoes_BluesKaj: appreciate it12:14

xtrizother than that i have kept the package as it is with no changes.17:03
ikoniahow is this anything to do with kubuntu - as you have built your own distro, not kubuntu17:03

rodniceBluesKaj: brings me to what lordievader said about Windows20:07
rodniceCan I have a Linux system host a Windows 7 one?20:07
BluesKajyes , in VirtualBox ...I ran windows7 on it for a while20:08
BluesKajVB is just one of many virtual machines one can use on linux20:09
rodniceBluesKaj: OK, so I would get Virtual Box from the download center and go from there, correct?20:16

PimpSmurfKubuntu 13.04 and 13.10 beta 2 confirmed not to boot on the Lenovo Yoga 2 Pro (Intel Graphics HD4400)20:26
lordievaderrodnice: You don't want to run pro-audio within a VM...20:30
lordievaderrodnice: 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
lordievaderrodnice: 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
rodnicelordievader: 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
rodnicelordievader: I wasn't going to try to have such a complex setup on this old laptop :-D20:41
rodnicelordievader: ~/.pulse/ does not exist on my system at the moment though. I guess I need to do my research into that20:41
rodnicelordievader: I'll return again on some other day.  Thanx for all the help20:46

PimpSmurfI 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
PimpSmurfIs there something I can do to help?21:48
AddlePimpSmurf: Do you mean it drops you at a grub> prompt?21:49
PimpSmurfyes21:49
AddlePimpSmurf: I fixed that by using boot-repair. Whoever wrote that deserves a medal. :)21:49
PimpSmurfthe grub command?21:50
AddlePimpSmurf: Just make sure to disable stupid Secure Boot.21:50
AddlePimpSmurf: No, let me find a web page for it... sec...21:50
AddlePimpSmurf: Basically, boot into the bootable DVD, install boot-repair and follow instructions exactly.21:50
PimpSmurfok21:50
PimpSmurfI already disabled secure boot. I'm guessing linux isn't secureboot friendly.21:51
AddlePimpSmurf: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair21:51
PimpSmurffirst computer with secure boot21:51
PimpSmurfTY Addle21:51
AddlePimpSmurf: 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
AddlePimpSmurf: You're welcome :)21:51
AddlePimpSmurf: 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
soeealso dont use beta2 but the final :)21:56
Addlesoee: Oh, it's out! Thought that was tomorrow. Time zones, I guess. Sweet...21:58
