[00:16] <RoyalCat> Hello, I would appreciate some help regarding pppoeconf on kubuntu 13.10
[00:18] <RoyalCat> I have connected to a DSL connection using pppoeconf, but network manager seems to be unable to register eth0 (Either for DSL or other ethernet connections), ifup/ifdown pon/poff did not help. Could resetting certain config files help?
[00:56] <mh_> Hello everybody.
[00:57] <mh_> I am not sure whether I encountered a bug or I can't get access-point mode to work.
[00:58] <mh_> The first time I created a Wireless (shared) connection everything worked flawlessly. Now I have no idea how to "connect to" (create) the network again. It is not among the "previous connections" and even if I delete it and create again from scratch nothing happens.
[01:13] <glenrock> i just did a fresh install and install the nvidia 319 package via Additional Drivers.   my fonts then got huge and ugly.   i see some stuff in google but nothing current.  any ideas?
[01:14] <goodtime> with the kubuntu OS glenrock?
[01:14] <goodtime> glenrock: ?
[01:14] <glenrock> goodtime: yes, 13.10
[01:15] <goodtime> ok goto settings then toapplications and apperance and there is a font setting there i belive
[01:16] <glenrock> yes, i've tried restoring defaults,  making sure antialiasing is correct, etc.   i can't get it quite right
[01:16] <goodtime> yes there is
[01:16] <glenrock> the fonts on the login screen are bigger than they should be too
[01:16] <goodtime> the defaults might not work you might have to set it manualy
[01:17] <glenrock> ok, i'll experiment with DPI, etc
[01:17] <goodtime> hmmm ok
[01:17] <goodtime> it should be ajustable
[01:18] <glenrock> there are a few versions of the nvidia driver available, i'm going to try an older one and see what happens
[01:18] <goodtime> oh ok that can be tricky,yeah... _-_
[01:18] <goodtime> -_-
[01:19] <goodtime> there are too many modules sometimes i think
[02:57] <TheyTookerJobs> Hi, I am new to KUBuntu and Linux. I have a drive that I want to format in ntfs so windows can share it. I went into KDE Partition Manager, created a new partition table and told it to format it as ntfs. The partition manager still shows it as unallocated. How can I go about assigning this to something like /storage in a way windows will also see this drive?
[02:59] <TheyTookerJobs> Just tells me error create a new partition on /dev/sdb
[06:20] <hyper_ch> hmmm, is there a smart way to get kernel 3.12 in saucy?
[06:26] <Unit193> hateball: What do you think you need it for?
[06:27] <hateball> Who knows
[06:27] <Unit193> Wow, I really need to tab complete more than one letter, but :lazy:
[06:28] <Unit193> hyper_ch: ^, what do you need it for?
[06:28] <hyper_ch> Unit193: optimus support
[06:28] <hyper_ch> (native)
[06:28] <hyper_ch> (among others)
[06:30] <Unit193> Edgers isn't quite stable, but that's one way.
[06:30] <hyper_ch> :)
[06:32] <Unit193> You won't get it in the normal repos, though.
[06:32] <hyper_ch> another option would be to go into the dark abyss of self-compiling
[06:35] <Unit193> Yep, but not quite supported.

[08:36] <excognac> hi anybody else has problems in 12.04 with timed shut down?
[08:52] <Rory> excognac: What problem are you having?
[08:53] <excognac> Rory: everytime it bugs and never shuts down correctly. otherwise i have no problems with anything not even with hibernate. it's a laptop
[08:53] <Rory> excognac: So you try to shut your machine down but it doesn't shut down> Where does "timed" come into this?
[08:54] <excognac> Rory: sudo shut down +n
[08:54] <excognac> eg 30
[08:54] <Rory> excognac: Does regular shutdown work? ie is it only timed shutdown that fails?
[08:55] <excognac> Rory: exactly
[08:56] <excognac> regardless i do +n or hh:mm
[08:56] <Rory> excognac: What happens instead of it shutting down?
[09:01] <excognac> kde-plasma crashes, bug report pops. but bug reporting is buggy, as it always has been

[10:37] <yossarianuk> ok - bit of a major issue - in our office the kerio firewall/gateway keeps terminating connections to ubuntu's servers - apt-get will just keep re-trying to download the same file (usually a 10+MB file) over and over again (forever)
[10:38] <yossarianuk> its effecting about 5 people running kubuntu
[10:38] <Wizard> LOL, you run router on windows :>
[10:38] <yossarianuk> can I change any apt-get settings to try to prevent this - i.e somehow make it more firewall friendly?
[10:38] <Wizard> yossarianuk: Yes, you can.
[10:39] <Wizard> Although it is not apt-get which acts weird. Your "firewall" does.
[10:39] <yossarianuk> I'm asking as I had a similar thing with arch linux - with that you can choose rsync / wget  as the download mechanism.
[10:43] <Wizard> Well, the issue is that something kills apt-get connection, right?
[10:47] <yossarianuk> Wizard: what can I do (in terms of apt-get)
[10:48] <yossarianuk> ps - we'bve found out why - the kerio gateway is actually Linux btw
[10:48] <yossarianuk> (/tmp is full)
[10:48] <Wizard> :D
[10:48]  * Wizard hands beer of victory to yossarianuk.
[10:55] <yossarianuk> * Drinks beer !
[10:57] <Wizard> yossarianuk: /me or /action, depending on your irc client ;)
[10:59] <yossarianuk> ah - thanks
[11:49] <daemongnome> what is the Xapian index

[12:00] <Danato> is anyone available to answer a probably simple question?
[12:00] <lordievader> !ask | Danato

[12:15] <incognito> Hi everyone, I have a wifi connection problem with my laptop. My lenovo laptop has a useless wifi adapter (Atheros AR9285) of which doesn't exist a working driver, so I have bought a usb wifi adapter (Asus n10) which is linux compatible. The problem's that when i use that to connect to router, I notice the same problems I had using the internal adapter (low signal power, connection lost every 5 minutes, extreme connection slowness)!
[12:15] <incognito> How could it be? What can I do to solve this problem? Thanks
[12:17] <ikonia> incognito: how are you using / seeing the same problem as the old one, as you said there was no working driver
[12:19] <incognito> ikonia: theoretically the working driver exists, but practically that's not true
[12:19] <ikonia> incognito: ok, so what chipset is in your new wireless device
[12:20] <incognito> ikonia: lsusb output => Realtek RTL8188SU
[12:20] <ikonia> incognito: ok, so have you checked the status/known problems with that chipset ?
[12:22] <ikonia> incognito: looks like a lot of known problems with that chipset on linux
[12:24] <ikonia> looks like you can get it working, but it requires effort and depend on your kernel and device firmware
[12:24] <incognito> ikonia: Oh... I have read that usb adapter was completely linux compatible
[12:24] <ikonia> incognito: where did you read that ?
[12:24] <ikonia> (I don't doubt it, I'm just reading a lot of historical problems/changes with this module in the kernel)
[12:25] <incognito> First of all on Amazon site, then on other web sites
[12:25] <ikonia> http://www.asus.com/Networking/USBN10/
[12:25] <ikonia> asus site says support windows 7 and mac 10.6
[12:26] <ikonia> that' doesn't mean "that it" but that's what the vendor supports
[12:26] <ikonia> which isn't a great start
[12:27] <incognito> ikonia: On the package there's written "linux compatible" too...
[12:27] <ikonia> the official linux driver prodided by realteak appears to have supported at the 2.6 kernel, and you have to use a different module for the 3.X kernel, which isn't native to that
[12:27] <ikonia> incognito: it is linux compatible, but for the 2.6 kernel, and via a generic module in the 3.X kernel, which may explain a lot of the problems I'm reading about
[12:28] <incognito> ikonia: That's a bad thing...
[12:29] <ikonia> http://support.asus.com/download.aspx?SLanguage=en&m=USB-N10&os=29
[12:29] <ikonia> I suspect you'll see a similar problem with the firmware too, although I don't know for a fact
[12:30] <incognito> ikonia: I try to install the original firmware... Let's see
[12:30] <ikonia> don't rush in
[12:30] <ikonia> re-read what I just said
[12:32] <incognito> ikonia: I have read it, but have I any alternative roads?
[12:39] <eutheria> not sure if i will get moaned at for not using kubuntu directory, but i installed mint 15, thought maybe i will try kde, installed kubuntu desktop and here i am with kde,  the only weird thing i have is that the context menu's appear in a base theme rather than oxygen, which just seems like something is broken
[12:41] <Tm_T> eutheria: we cannot know what mint does so we cannot support it (:
[12:42] <eutheria> as i did apt-get install kubuntu-desktop and it installed from the normal ubuntu location
[12:42] <eutheria> that it isn't any different
[12:45] <lordievader> Does Mint use Ubuntu repo's?
[12:46] <eutheria> yes
[12:47] <eutheria> all mint seems to be is a ppa on top of ubuntu, their ppa contains mate, cinnamon and mdm
[12:49] <lordievader> Didn't know that. Learn something new everyday ;)
[12:50] <lordievader> eutheria: Anyhow I think this is more a question for #linuxmint-help.
[12:51] <eutheria> i think they just add their own theme, it is supposed to be "untouched" as far as things go
[12:54] <Tm_T> eutheria: atleast back in the day there were numerous incompatible changes done in mint, but yeah this is for kubuntu not mint-kde or any other derivative
[13:01] <Cayton> Hi all! I am using Kubuntu 13.10. How can I change the wallpaper at the lock screen?
[13:04] <lordievader> Cayton: Hmm, I have done that before. But how... give me a bit.
[13:07] <Cayton> lordievader: Thank you, i am waiting
[13:08] <lordievader> Cayton: System Settings -> Display and Monitor -> Screen Locker -> Set "Screen locker type" to "Desktop Widgets" and hit "Configure".
[13:09] <Cayton> lordievader: Then I have this annoying menu in the upper right corner and i have to hit "Esc" for entering my password..
[13:10] <lordievader> Cayton: For as far as I know, this is the only way.
[13:11] <Cayton> Okay, Thank you. Is there no configuration file?
[13:14] <lordievader> Cayton: Probably, don't know where though. Look through ~/.kde/share/[config|apps]
[13:14] <eagles0513875> anyone have an idea how i can permanently set the master channel in kmix
[13:15] <eutheria> how can i stop a windows from going transparent when it is dragged?
[13:16] <Cayton> lordievader: Thank you, i'll look. May i can change the standard wallpaper link at /usr/share/wallpapers. Its just an idea, but i'll try this too
[13:17] <lordievader> Cayton: Good luck!
[13:54] <dhaumann> Riddell: can you comment on http://lists.kde.org/?l=kwrite-devel&m=138391610526303&w=2 ? It's about Python 3 in Kubuntu
[15:31] <BluesKaj> Hey folks
[16:16] <therazr> Anyone using ibus with kubuntu 13.10?
[16:16] <lordievader> therazr: At times, yes.
[16:16] <therazr> lordievader: How do you configure it, and make it default?
[16:17] <lordievader> therazr: I don't have it as default. I simply start it when I need it.
[16:17] <therazr> lordievader: What language do you input with ibus?
[16:18] <lordievader> therazr: Japanese.
[16:18] <therazr> lordievader: Yea me 2, but how do I make programs like libreoffice and firefox aware that I'm using ibus to input?
[16:19] <therazr> I tried to use "export..." lines in .bashrc but still I can't input in Firefox and some GTK software (i have ibus-gtk installed)
[16:20] <lordievader> therazr: You have enabled ibus? Nowadays the shortcut seems to be super+space.
[16:20] <therazr> lordievader: yes
[16:21] <therazr> lordievader: tell me the steps you take to input
[16:24] <lordievader> therazr: I run in a shell or in krunner the ibus-daemon, hit super+space, and I can type Japanese: やった！
[16:25] <therazr> :(
[16:25] <therazr> Is it kubuntu 13.10? And what packages do you have installed, related to Japanese
[16:25] <therazr> and ibus
[16:26] <lordievader> therazr: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6382865/ and their dependencies, I run 14.04. (That is not a typo)
[16:27] <therazr> thanks man, will take a look. Btw you are bleeding edge :)
[16:27] <lordievader> therazr: Hmm, I see your problem. Firefox ignores ibus. I know notice that chrome doesn't like ibus either.
[16:29] <therazr> lordievader: So ibus doesn't work in Firefox for you too?
[16:29] <lordievader> therazr: Nope. Nor in chrome.
[16:31] <therazr> yea. Could you try installing ibus-gtk and ibus-gtk3 and tell me what gives?
[16:32] <therazr> lordievader: Very bad since sometimes I need to rely on Google Translate for some things :S
[16:37] <lordievader> therazr: Will you be available later? I'm going to the supermarket to get some dinner.
[16:37] <therazr> lordievader: Maybe, can't tell for sure. Anyway, thanks for your help, I'll try some fixes.
[16:37] <lordievader> Good luck anyhow ;)
[18:16] <mah454> I have a big problem with nepomukindexer , this service use 95~100% CPU Usage !!!!
[18:16] <mah454> How can fix it ?
[18:16] <mah454> My laptop restarted !
[18:22] <lordievader> mah454: Disable it ;) (If you don't use it)
[18:23] <seattlegaucho> mah454, I usually turn off nepomunk ... I haven't found a use for it and unless you have a powerful machine, it takes too many resources
[18:23] <mah454> lordievader: what program disable ?
[18:23] <seattlegaucho> mah454, disable nepomunk, look it up in System Settings
[18:24] <mah454> ok
[18:24] <lordievader> mah454: System Settings -> Desktop search -> untick Enable Nepomuk Semantic Desktop
[18:28] <mah454> lordievader: nepomukindexer always use 100% CPU Usage ?
[18:29] <mah454> how long will take to search indexes ?
[18:29] <lordievader> mah454: It should not. But it has frequently been the case that it does.
