| pietro10 | hm | 14:22 |
| pietro10 | sgt-puzzles and zim also use the gtk default style | 14:23 |
| pietro10 | but I do have gtk[23]-engines-oxygen installed | 14:23 |
| pietro10 | and they're not being run as root | 14:23 |
| pietro10 | what's wrong now? | 14:23 |
| pietro10 | er wait no, after manually reselecting oxygen in kde-config-gtk sgt-puzzles looks right | 14:23 |
| pietro10 | and now so does synaptic | 14:24 |
| fabio123 | i had thi issue | 14:24 |
| pietro10 | so I guess I just had to reselect kde-config-gtk | 14:24 |
| pietro10 | I'm not sure if that's a bug in kde-config or not | 14:24 |
| fabio123 | i remember i made a gtkrc file in the root folder | 14:24 |
| pietro10 | yeah that was the old way | 14:24 |
| fabio123 | anyway about that i no longer use oxygen-gtk | 14:25 |
| fabio123 | i use qtcurve which is a lot faster | 14:25 |
| pietro10 | apparently all you need to do is go into kde-config-gtk, make some changes without applying to mark the window as dirty, then change it back to oxygen, and then click apply | 14:25 |
| pietro10 | so even though kde-config-gtk says the currently applyed theme is oxygen, it's not really | 14:25 |

| ut | Hi guys, i have an inspiron 14z ultrabook and my bluetooth is not working, there is "your default bluetooth adapter is not visible for remote devices <Fix it>" note, but nothing changes when i click it. Moreover, when i try to change something in "Adapters" label, my changes are not saved. | 16:19 |
| ut | I tried to google something about it but i found nothing really useful. | 16:19 |
| Marthinus | Hi all so I'm pretty new to this. Installed Kubuntu for the first time today and my wireless isn't working. I keep getting a "The Wifi network could not be found" | 16:27 |

| yossarianuk | RishJ: what h/w are you using? | 16:55 |
| yossarianuk | whow are you reducing brighness also ? | 16:56 |
| RishJ | what exactly are you asking for? | 16:57 |
| === mooky_ is now known as mooky | ||
| RishJ | yossarianuk: i dont think its hardware related..i guess its some issue with kubuntu | 17:06 |
| yossarianuk | RishJ: well it likely is HW/driver related. | 17:07 |
| yossarianuk | i.e if you had nvidia - the nvidia-settings WOULD work. | 17:07 |
| RishJ | ok...i dont have nvidia | 17:07 |
| yossarianuk | I have a samsung netbook and the built in brightness settings do not work - until I install a driver.... | 17:07 |
| yossarianuk | (that is intel h/w) | 17:07 |
| yossarianuk | you can change with xgamma | 17:08 |
| yossarianuk | i.e try xgamma -gamma 1.1 | 17:08 |
| RishJ | i have a samsung ultrabook | 17:08 |
| RishJ | so how did you make it work then? | 17:09 |
| yossarianuk | it is your h/w possibly | 17:09 |
| yossarianuk | https://launchpad.net/~voria/+archive/ppa | 17:09 |
| yossarianuk | I had to use the ppa | 17:09 |
| yossarianuk | (on my crappy samsung netbook) | 17:09 |
| yossarianuk | you'll likely have more luck with newer versions of kubuntu/ubuntu/whatever also. | 17:11 |
| RishJ | 13.10 works just fine | 17:12 |
| RishJ | but i am using 12.10LTS for dev | 17:12 |
| RishJ | as its stable | 17:12 |
| yossarianuk | try the ppa. | 17:12 |
| yossarianuk | also try installing a newer kernel | 17:12 |
| yossarianuk | 3.2.x is not supported any longer | 17:12 |
| yossarianuk | if you install ubuntu/kubuntu now you'll actually get 3.8.x kernel | 17:13 |
| yossarianuk | sorry install 12.04.4 lts | 17:13 |
| yossarianuk | you will get 3.8.x kernel now | 17:13 |
| RishJ | ok cool...is there any way i can update directly from here | 17:14 |
| RishJ | oh i am sorry..i am using 12.04 lts | 17:14 |
| RishJ | i guess its 12.04.3 | 17:14 |
| yossarianuk | what I mean is if you download the latest 12.04.x .iso you'll end up with kernel 3.8.. | 17:15 |
| RishJ | ok..but can i update it from 12.04.3 ? | 17:15 |
| yossarianuk | you can download kernel 3.11 for lts version | 17:15 |
| yossarianuk | just | 17:15 |
| yossarianuk | sudo apt-get install linux-image-generic-lts-saucy sudo apt-get install linux-headers-generic-lts-saucy | 17:15 |
| yossarianuk | i.e | 17:16 |
| yossarianuk | http://www.leaseweblabs.com/2013/07/upgrade-ubuntu-12-04-lts-kernel-to-3-4/ | 17:16 |
| yossarianuk | you'll probably need updated samsung tools though as well as kernel.. | 17:17 |

| SeanFromQueens | I'm running Kubuntu 13.10 KDElibs 4.11.3, connected to my Wifi network, but can't see my NAS that is connected to my router (can see it on my Win7 partition) | 17:41 |
| SeanFromQueens | What should I be looking into to change so Dolphin File Manager can see network drives? | 17:42 |
| hateball | SeanFromQueens: are you looking for samba shares? | 17:42 |
| SeanFromQueens | I guess so, I was really hoping to just see resources connected to my network | 17:43 |
| yossarianuk | SeanFromQueens: open dolphin | 17:43 |
| hateball | I don't recall if I've ever bothered to get browsing to work, but you can go to the location at smb://user@ip.address/resource | 17:44 |
| yossarianuk | click - network in the left menu | 17:44 |
| yossarianuk | then > samba shares | 17:44 |
| === AntiSpamMeta_ is now known as AntiSpamMeta | ||
| SeanFromQueens | yossarianuk: the samba shares green plus sign turns to red minus sign | 17:45 |
| SeanFromQueens | hateball: typing the smb and the IP address jumped over whatever the barrier was, and now I can navigate around | 17:52 |
| SeanFromQueens | hateball: thank you very much | 17:52 |
| hateball | SeanFromQueens: no worries, as I said I never bothered getting browsing working... :p | 17:52 |

| SeanFromQueens | So does anyone know how to 'save to' samba shares directly from Firefox? | 18:09 |
| BluesKaj | SeanFromQueens, in FF >edit>preferences>under "Downloads"> save files to 'whatever samba shared folder' you would like | 18:23 |
| === prodatalab_ is now known as prodatalab | ||
| BluesKaj | but then, that target folder becomes the default for any downloaded file in FF, unless you change it if course | 18:25 |
| SeanFromQueens | BluesKaj: that gives me the same local choices (only file systems, home, and desktop) | 18:25 |
| SeanFromQueens | I even have a location shortcut on my desktop that is grayed out, and inaccessible from ff as download option | 18:26 |
| SeanFromQueens | browsing into the NAS is the central issue | 18:27 |
| SeanFromQueens | dolphin file manager has no issue navigating to the NAS, but it is the only app that can | 18:29 |
| BluesKaj | yeah , I see what you mean, nor networked file destinations work , even if the path is typed in the searchbar | 18:30 |
| BluesKaj | SeanFromQueens,^ | 18:30 |
| BluesKaj | that's a bummer | 18:31 |

| fkm | Hi there. What can I do, to debug a USB device that is not recognized? Suddendly, my Android device doesn't show up as a device when connected. The hardware connection seems to work, as the "charging"-light on the device turns on, when I plug in the device. lsusb doesn't show any entry that I would identify as my device (Samsung Galaxy S3, i9300). | 19:50 |
| fkm | I don't know about any update that might be related. But honestly I didn't check as I don't know enough to know more after reading through the list of updated packages. | 19:51 |
| BluesKaj | fkm, try this to see if your phone shows up, sudo lshw -C network | 19:58 |
| fkm | BluesKaj: Thank you for the tip! Unfortunately, it didn't work :-( | 20:00 |
| fkm | What I see though (through lsusb on the computer and the phone) is the USB-hub via which the device is connected. But not the device itself and I always used the USB-hub until now. I even tried to connect it directly to no avail. | 20:01 |
| fkm | lsusb output: http://pastebin.com/thpavpTL (1d6b is the hub). | 20:02 |
| BluesKaj | fkm, did you try the lshw command after the direct connection? | 20:05 |
| fkm | BluesKaj: Nope. I will do that now. | 20:08 |
| fkm | Still nothing | 20:12 |
| fkm | I'll test it with another computer. My netbook must be lying around somewhere. | 20:14 |
| BluesKaj | can't the phone connect by wifi? | 20:18 |
| fkm | BluesKaj: Yes, it could in theory. But I would like to push some code to the device using ADB. | 20:21 |
| fkm | And I guess the problem lies with Android / the device. The netbook doesn't recognize it either and I didn't do any updates there in the past week. | 20:22 |
| fkm | Thank you BluesKaj for your advice! :-) | 20:22 |
| BluesKaj | ADB? | 20:24 |
| fkm | "Android Debug Bridge" | 20:24 |
| fkm | A cli tool to control your Android device (or push/pull data to/from it) | 20:25 |
| BluesKaj | fkm, my duaghter's LG phone connected without any probs here, but don't think she was pushing any code:) | 20:25 |
| fkm | Well. The worst part about my problem is, that last time I tried (about a week ago), everything worked like a charm. | 20:26 |
| fkm | So I guessed that maybe a Kubuntu update made some changes as I didn't do any OS upgrades on the phone. But seems like there was a change on the phone after all :-) | 20:27 |
| fkm | I'll try another cable and then call it a night :-D | 20:27 |
| fkm | O. M. G. | 20:28 |
| fkm | It actually was the cable -.- | 20:28 |
| BluesKaj | oops :) | 20:28 |
| fkm | Lesson learned: Don't leave your USB cables in the car for a week ;-) | 20:29 |
| BluesKaj | ok, I'll make a note of that | 20:29 |

| keithzg | Hmphhh, how do I manually set a nameserver in this godforsaken age of resolvconf? | 22:40 |
| dolomite | keithzg to add custom dns? | 22:44 |
| dolomite | my understanding is that /etc/resolv.conf is constantly overwritten by resolvconf now | 22:44 |
| dolomite | and I've seen a solution where you add "prepend domain-name-servers 10.1.2.3;" to /etc/dhcp/dhclient.conf | 22:45 |
| tsimpson | modify /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/base to add custom stuff | 22:45 |
| dolomite | mine's empty | 22:47 |
| tsimpson | it usually is | 22:47 |
| dolomite | but you can treat it like we used to treat resolv.conf? | 22:47 |
| dolomite | nameserver xx.xx.xx.xx | 22:47 |
| tsimpson | /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/base gets added (as if by cat) after any dynamic stuff from dhcp | 22:48 |
| tsimpson | yep, just add your nameserver lines to it, or /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/tail | 22:49 |
| dolomite | well I wasn't the one with the question but I learned something! | 22:49 |
| dolomite | thanks | 22:49 |
| tsimpson | /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/tail gets added only after some interface is configured, /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/base gets added always | 22:49 |
| genii | keithzg: You can also do something like add into the /etc/network/interfaces file a post-up directive for the interface, like: post-up echo "nameserver 8.8.8.8" >> /etc/resolv.conf | 23:10 |
| keithzg | genii, tsimpson: Thanks! I'll definitely keep all that in mind. In my case though it just turned out I needed to add the /etc/openvpn/update-resolv-conf script to my client's VPN .ovpn. Now to figure out why the GUI doesn't work... | 23:11 |
