snooopsHi, i allways have to run systemsettings via terminal with sudo to apply changes. im not sure, but i think kde should prompt me for my sudo password if i start this thing, right? Im using Kubuntu 13.1008:29
not_foundsystem settings itself doesn't ask for super user afaik... when making specific changes it should prompt08:30
not_foundnot all changes need super user08:31
snooopsbut it does not08:31
snooopsfor example the login screen08:31
not_foundsnooops , perhaps someone more clued up will answer you sooner... I am not in KDE land long enough to have more specific help for you08:32
snooopsfor example muon wont start with administrative privileges too08:35
snooopsi cant install any packages on it08:35
not_foundwhen I start muon I don't need admin... but once I try to install a package or do an update it will ask for my password08:36
snooopsi dont get prompted after cliking updates, and i get an error from muon that no authorization was provided08:37
not_foundseems there is a bug in muon that causes this issue08:41

not_foundat the end of https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/qapt/+bug/833058 there seems to be a call to make a bug report directly unto muon and not kubuntu and it effects users of 13.10...08:42

lordievaderHey TheFakeazneD525, how are you doing>09:43
lordievader>=?09:43
TheFakeazneD525pretty good...09:44
TheFakeazneD525I'm a bit anxious about wayland tbh09:44
TheFakeazneD525I mean XServer, while old, is proven...09:44
TheFakeazneD525but hey, KDE and the Kubuntu team know more than I do about this :P09:45
ikoniayou should be glad it's wayland and not mir09:45
ikoniaat least vendors / teams are behind wayland09:45
TheFakeazneD525heh09:45
ikoniaand you need to accept the first couple of reslease will be problematic, but you have to go through this $sometime, so it may as well be now09:45

gnoxgot a problem: i have a really poor inetconnection and want to install some additional packages - is it somehow possible to install e.g. gimp from a debian *.iso cd?11:28
lordievadergnox: If gimp is on an iso yes. You can also download the .deb onto a usb-stick.11:30
lordievaderMind the dependencies.11:30
gnoxlordievader: yeah, i have the full debian iso install dvd (4GB) - so how can i install e.g. gimp from that dvd?11:33
lordievadergnox: I'm trying to find the debian cd contents.11:35
dp__how can i open .gzp file?11:36
dp__n e idea?11:36
TheFakeazneD525gzipped file?11:37
TheFakeazneD525like filename.gz?11:37
TheFakeazneD525I don't know about gzp11:37
dp__nope....filename.gzp11:38
dp__does this extension even exist or is someone  having fun with me11:38
dp__i've done a lil google on it....:-/11:39
TheFakeazneD525hmm...11:40
TheFakeazneD525make a duplicate, and change the extention to .gz, and then try unzipping it with ARK11:40
lordievadergnox: Gimp is available on the Debian dvd, I've mounted the cd to /mnt, the path is then: /mnt/pool/main/g/gimp11:41
BluesKajHiyas all11:43
rosco_yDo I have to edit fstab to automatically mount a second hard drive that I want to use as a file store?11:47

lordievaderrosco_y: Also it is usefull to use the UUID instead of /dev/sdXY.11:49
ice9how to disable auto package update?13:14
jussiis there a way to clear the list of packages that were automatically installed but no longer required? my pc is stupid and doesnt know I want to keep them and I wish it owuld stop warning me...13:21
Poisoned_Dragonjussi, in term: sudo apt-get autoremove13:23
Poisoned_DragonIt tells you that when you install and remove other apps.13:23
jussiPoisoned_Dragon: no, Im not interested in removing them, but I want to remove them from the autoremove list13:24
Poisoned_DragonLemme check out Muon.13:24
Poisoned_DragonIf it's like synaptic, you can set them to manual.13:25
Poisoned_DragonThen you won't be bothered13:25
Poisoned_DragonAlso, you can pass the install command for all of those packages to apt-get and it will set them to manually installed, after it complains that it's already installed.13:26
Poisoned_Dragonso, highlight, copy, and paste the whole list.13:27
Poisoned_Dragonthen: sudo apt-get install <packages>13:27
BluesKajjussi, I use autoremove and autoclean, seems to do the job13:37
jussiPoisoned_Dragon: yeah, Im aware I could do that, seems a pretty dirty workaround though :/13:38
BluesKajthey keep my / partition from getting too large13:38
jussiBluesKaj: I think you also misread the question13:38
BluesKajmisunderstood perhaps13:38
Poisoned_Dragonjussi, it's not dirty. It's linux.13:41
Poisoned_Dragonapt-get could always do that. It's kinda silly to believe that everything should only be accomplished in a gui. *cough* Windows *cough*13:42
jussiHrm, I might just go turn off autoremove altogether. might be simpler that way rather than trying to always keep it updated.13:43
jussiit also appears there is a flag for it, although I only find aptitude instructions for changing that currently13:44
jussiguess this calls for reading the apt man page :/13:44
Poisoned_Dragonautoremove doesn't controll updating13:45
Poisoned_Dragonit just removes packages that are orphaned.13:45
BluesKajwell it removes unneeded packages , that's the whole point in my case13:46
jussiso all Im trying to do is toggle the suto installed flags on that list of packages, not actually remove anything :)13:48
jussiie. On the command line, call aptitude unmarkauto PACKAGENAME to mark PACKAGENAME as manually installed, or markauto to mark it as automatically installed.13:48
jussiI just want to avoid aptitude :)13:48
Poisoned_Dragonapt-get is faster. sudo apt-get install package1 package2 package3...13:51
Poisoned_DragonIt'll just gripe that it's already there and set it to manual for you.13:51

ice9I added a high resolution that is higher than the native supported one for my Intel card, using xrandr, it's listed as VIRTUAL1,  can I use that emulated resolution?18:44
geniiWhat usually happens is you don't see the entire screen at once. When you hit an edge which has more beside it, the screen will move18:46
ice9yeah that's panning, but I want something like in ATI, it emulated the higher resolution and display it in the limit of your screen view so things get smaller18:56
