[07:53] <arvind_> .
[08:06] <arvind_kalyan> Hi
[09:22] <lordievader> Good morning.
[11:22] <trung_> is there a reason why Chrome's tabs fonts are really bad and does not seem to be affected by anything?
[11:22] <ikonia> are they built into the application ?
[11:22] <trung_> Title bar font can be changed in KDE system settings but tab font is as ugly asever
[11:23] <ikonia> rather than a dynamic option ?
[11:23] <trung_> they have an option to change font in options but it doesn't seem to matter
[11:24] <trung_> this is so lame, I'll probably go back to firefox
[11:24] <trung_> if it wasn't for firefox being slow as hell
[11:38] <BluesKaj> 'Morning all
[15:28] <LucidGuy> Troubleshooting an issue with my system so I decided to mv/delete my .kde folder (Wanted to start from Scratch) .. after logging back in my dual screen setup was not configured?  I thought all that info was kept withing my xorg.conf (which I used to setup the screens)
[15:28] <lordievader> LucidGuy: It was probably Kscreen that passed the setup to Xorg.
[15:29] <LucidGuy> lordievader, I don't understand.. kscreen changed my xorg.conf file?
[15:30] <lordievader> LucidGuy: No, Kscreen keeps track of the display configuration in KDE.
[15:31] <LucidGuy> lordievader, ok, I still don't understand how its bypassing my xorg.conf file
[15:32] <lordievader> Ah you have an xorg.conf file. Not sure how thing work if that exists. But it might be that KDE prefers kscreen over xorg.conf.
[15:34] <LucidGuy> I
[15:34] <LucidGuy> I've never heard of kscreen.
[15:35] <LucidGuy> From the sounds of it .. if a new user logs in they will also loose the dual screen setup.  That doesnt make sense
[15:35] <lordievader> LucidGuy: What version of KDE are you running? Kscreen replaced something (cant recall what) in I believe KDE SC 4.11.x
[15:36] <LucidGuy> kubuntu 12.04 .. I believe that 4.8.5
[15:36] <lordievader> LucidGuy: Oh, that probably doesn't carry Kscreen yet.
[16:25] <Avihay> Hi. I have processes of programs I killed still around. some of them are disk-sleeping, others don't. they don't react to any signal I try to send them. I want them DEAD! KILL THEM KILL THEM KILL THEM!!!! :-P
[16:30] <|Frodo|> Avihay: "kill -9 <process-id>" doesn't work?
[16:34] <Avihay> |Frodo|: no, I get no such process. a quick look in htop says the processes don't exist, so KSysGurd is lying to me :-<
[16:34] <Avihay> thanks
[16:37] <|Frodo|> Avihay: you're welcome
[19:35] <mahfiaz> I got a kubuntu with plasma active, but when using touchscreen the mouse moves, but no clicks are recieved, terminal shows "Got touch without getting TouchBegin for id 265"
[19:35] <mahfiaz> any advice?
[20:09] <Walzmyn> I had a complete failure on 13.10 and reinstalled 12.04. Now all my plasmoids are trasnparent and I can't read them. How do I change this?
[20:10] <W8KWA_Charles> The text on them or the background?
[20:14] <guido_> hello

[20:27] <Walzmyn> W8KWA_Charles: sorry, missed ya, the background preferably
[20:29] <W8KWA_Charles> Thats uasaly tied in with the "Desktop Themes", have you tried changeing it
[20:29] <W8KWA_Charles> see if it cycles
[20:30]  * Walzmyn looks
[20:31] <Walzmyn> OK, that's changing it, just have to find something that works
[20:31] <Walzmyn> W8KWA_Charles: thanks
[20:32] <W8KWA_Charles> Walzmyn: welcome
[20:42] <trhawk> Hi! Is this a proper place to ask for help with some kubuntu updating problems?
[20:42] <BluesKaj> trhawk, yes
[20:42] <W8KWA_Charles> trhawk: one of them yep
[20:43] <trhawk> my problem: "libnss3-1d : Depends: libnss3 (= 3.15.3.1-0ubuntu0.12.04.1) but 3.15.4-0ubuntu0.12.04.1 is installed"
[20:44] <trhawk> any ideas how to upgrade this broken package?
[20:46] <genii> !info libnss3 precise
[20:46] <genii> !info libnss3-1d precise
[20:47] <genii> trhawk: Looks like your libnss3-1d it wants to install is too old.
[20:49] <genii> trhawk: I might try: sudo apt-get update    ... and then see if: apt-cache policy libnss3-1d shows the version available to install which the bot shows ( 3.15.4-whatever )
[20:51] <trhawk>   Installed: 3.15.3.1-0ubuntu0.12.04.1
[20:51] <trhawk>   Candidate: 3.15.4-0ubuntu0.12.04.1
[20:51] <genii> trhawk: There ya go.
[20:52] <trhawk> but how? (long day, my head is spinning ;-)
[20:52] <genii> trhawk: At this point now, sudo apt-get upgrade   ...should put the right version
[20:53] <trhawk> Reading package lists... Done
[20:53] <trhawk> Building dependency tree
[20:53] <trhawk> Reading state information... Done
[20:53] <trhawk> You might want to run 'apt-get -f install' to correct these.
[20:53] <trhawk> The following packages have unmet dependencies:
[20:53] <trhawk>  libnss3-1d : Depends: libnss3 (= 3.15.3.1-0ubuntu0.12.04.1) but 3.15.4-0ubuntu0.12.04.1 is installed
[20:53] <trhawk> E: Unmet dependencies. Try using -f.
[20:53] <trhawk> -f upgrade? gives a very long scary list
[20:54] <genii> trhawk: Instead then: sudo apt-get install libnss3-1d=3.15.4-0ubuntu0.12.04.1
[20:55] <trhawk_> dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of libnss3-1d:
[20:55] <trhawk_>  libnss3-1d depends on libnss3 (= 3.15.3.1-0ubuntu0.12.04.1); however:
[20:55] <trhawk_>   Version of libnss3 on system is 3.15.4-0ubuntu0.12.04.1.
[20:55] <trhawk_> dpkg: error processing libnss3-1d (--configure):
[20:55] <trhawk_>  dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
[20:58] <trhawk_> I have no idea how a newer libnss3 got installed breaking some not yet (?) configured older libnss3-1d?
[21:05] <trhawk_> genii: thx, anyway. I'll have a try with -f upgrade, and if that doesn't work I'm going to remove and reinstall libnss-1d and tons of dependencies :-(
[21:07] <genii> trhawk_: You'll likely need to clear out the old cruft first with the: sudo apt-get -f install   .... and then re-run after: sudo apt-get upgrade ...apologies on lag, back and forth from computer
[21:11] <trhawk_> genii: no worries. thx for helping.
[21:15] <trhawk_> genii: no success: won't let me upgrade or install newer libnss3-1d
[21:16] <genii> trhawk_: What says result of: ls /var/cache/apt/archives/libnss3-1d*
[21:16] <trhawk_> genii: /var/cache/apt/archives/libnss3-1d_3.15.4-0ubuntu0.12.04.1_amd64.deb
[21:17] <genii> trhawk_: OK. So then:  sudo dpkg -i --ignore-depends /var/cache/apt/archives/libnss3-1d_3.15.4-0ubuntu0.12.04.1_amd64.deb
[21:18] <genii> Sorry, may be --force-depends instead, but you get the idea
[21:20] <trhawk_> genii: hurray! You me hero for today! --force-depends did the trick!
[21:20] <trhawk_> *my
[21:21] <genii> trhawk_: You're welcome :) Odd that telling it earlier though to install specifically that one didn't take. Hopefully your system stays unstuck now!
[21:26] <trhawk_> genii: hope so, too. Again, thx alot and CU
[21:26]  * genii makes more coffee
