[01:02] i lierally installed 7 separate apps and NONE worked [01:02] IBus is used to allow multilingual input such as Chinese, Japanese, Korean (CJK), Devanagari and Dravidian characters in !GUI applications - see also: !SCIM. For more info on Ibus see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ibus [01:02] iBus doesn't work [01:03] in practice it does nothing [01:03] everything on my desktop works like a dream now but this alludes me [01:04] linux isn't a good bet for chinese input is it? [01:14] given that there's ubuntu kylin - WTF can't k/ubuntu input pinyin without this much ball ache? [01:14] so pathetic that i have to use an online website to this job [01:15] arg. My system freezes when watching youtube videos in google chrome, and when full screening games on Steam. Something that has to do with video must be causing it, but I have no idea how to check. I can find anything in dmesg, syslog, faillog, and don't know where else to check. 13.10 64bit laptop. [01:15] cjwelborn have you tried livesreamer?

[01:16] yeh, if I don't I can get it real quick. [01:16] install livestreamer in the terminal [01:17] http://xmodulo.com/2014/01/watch-live-streaming-video-command-line-linux.html [01:17] cool thanks topoi_ [01:18] it converts youtube, vimeo, etc. to a stream viewable in VLC. you're welcome :) [01:21] Or, you could use the network tab in VLC, it supports YouTube directly. Could also try http://youtube.com/html5 I'd also wonder what's in xorg.log, and if you can ssh in. [01:24] good point Unit193, I didn't think of that. I'm gonna try it. === scotty is now known as Guest61942 [03:10] ? [04:50] Hi, does anyone know how to get KDE to use dual monitors? [04:50] Right now, I've got two monitors that display the desktop, but only one will accept applications. [04:51] eg, there is no edge that I can move applications across. They just do the smart maximize. [04:52] obviously "desktop 1" vs "desktop 2" isn't the issue either. [04:52] The mouse will move to the other screen though. === denny_ is now known as Guest82469 === rahul is now known as Guest98937 === Guest98937 is now known as rahul__ === rahul__ is now known as RahulAN === calin is now known as crucerucalin === jussi01 is now known as jussi === root is now known as Guest7332 === Guest7332 is now known as shawn === shawn is now known as shawnt === shawnt is now known as shawn_tan === shawn_tan is now known as shawn [08:09] what's 13.10 based on? debian7 or 6? [08:25] I did an upgrade to kde 4.12.2 and (from ubuntu repos) kernel 3.11.0-17. After reboot I had no GUI. I removed all nvidia drivers and installed nvidia-319-updates and got GUI back, but there are no HDMI sound devices recognized. How do I get things working again? [08:28] hmmm... lspci says configuration: driver=snd_hda_intel but vendor: NVIDIA Corporation, is that the problem?

I don't know if the problem is in the kde 4.12.2 update or ubuntu kernel update that is causing this [09:16] valorie: any idea how to check where exactly things broke?

I think it's a kde bug [09:23] if I mess around with the hardware tab (changing profiles) then suddenly new options appear in the device preference tab [09:25] but only one of them can be used according to selected profile (analog audio or hdmi output), whereas in the past I could pick them out on the device list and prioritize [09:29] if I'm understanding the new settings behavior, from now on I will need to change the settings every time I want to switch from watching TV to listening to music and select the output profile manually. That sucks :-/ [09:29] :( [09:30] I don't know which team is doing that sort of stuff -- could be solid, which handles hardware [09:30] they have a chan: #solid [09:31] or ask in #kde, where they might know better [09:31] * valorie quits to pay full attention to the olympics [09:32] valorie: k, thanks!

[15:57] at start up :)? [15:58] !root [15:58] Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo [16:00] osbinas, use the user and password you chose during the installation procedure [16:02] but how to enable it im allready got settup root user just i need to let me logon with him at startup [16:02] where i can find file something like that BluesKaj [16:03] kdmrc or some thin glike that :) [16:18] osbinas, sorry Idon't know what you mean root user, pls read the ubottu post above [16:19] at logon i system i wana choise use regular user and super user "root" how to enable it? [16:20] in the terminal or virtual terminal it's sudo su [16:20] runing kubuntu 13.10 [16:20] it's not like debian [16:20] that's all I know [16:21] :) [16:22] if you want root user at the login page , ctl+alt +F1-F6 , then after logging in as a normal user, do suso su [16:25] correction , sudo su osbinas === shivam is now known as mavihs [16:33] BluesKaj im mean when logingon http://handytutorial.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/Login-as-root-300x222.png [16:33] some thing like that only with kde === Aniar_ is now known as Aniar [16:35] osbinas, are you getting the login page , lightdm ? === calin is now known as crucerucalin [16:40] nop thats way and asking :) [16:41] BluesKaj [16:42] you should have said so, user and userpassword are what are required on the login page, can you explain what happens after grub ?

[22:46] apb1963_: isn't there a box to check to make that happen? [22:46] if not, check in systemsettings, and set it there [22:55] i just installed ubuntu desktop 13.06 is there an easy way to install kubuntu [22:55] i dont want to do it all over again (took an hr) [22:57] en1gma, how did you install it the first time? [22:57] unetbootin to my sd card then used that to install to hdd [22:57] external hdd [22:57] valorie, I don't see a box... where in system settings please? [22:58] workspace behavior > default applications [22:59] en1gma, where was all the time spent? [22:59] waiting for it to install. mostly downloading [23:00] valorie, I see workspace behavior... I don't see default apps. [23:00] en1gma, How about downloading an iso first? [23:01] how about i would have done that before i would have taken the trouble to do it through two different usb sticks and then break out my ext hdd [23:01] i dont have any blank media and putting iso onto usb stick always problems [23:02] apb1963_: also there is file associations, where you can configure which pdf reader [23:02] en1gma: install kubuntu-desktop [23:03] no need for an iso again [23:03] i do that from a term? [23:03] you will have both unity and kde desktops though [23:03] more bloat* oh well [23:03] you can do that from the cli or using synaptic or whatever you like [23:04] you can uninstall unity if you don't want it [23:04] !kde [23:04] KDE (http://kde.org) is an open community that creates and maintains software including the Plasma desktop.

[23:04] valorie, I saw the file associations... but I don't think that's the issue? [23:04] it isn't "bloat" it is a different desktop and set of applications [23:05] you could have had just kde had you chosen the kubuntu iso rather than the ubuntu [23:06] apb1963_: I misspoke; the default applications doesn't cover PDF [23:06] :( [23:06] hmm [23:06] I should have checked that first [23:06] :) [23:09] so really that brings up an interesting question.... how does one add to that list of "services" on the default applications window? [23:09] which I'm guessing is the place to add what I want, to get the behavior I want. [23:17] apb1963_: I guess that would be a #kde question [23:19] or maybe it is because we don't provide a default PDF reader [23:19] that's possible === keithzg__ is now known as keithzg === freeflying is now known as freeflying_away === freeflying_away is now known as freeflying
