[00:54] <topoi_> how to type pinyin in 13.10?
[01:01] <topoi_> It chinese input writing impossible on kubuntu?

[01:02] <Unit193> !language | topoi_
[01:02] <Unit193> !ibus
[01:02] <topoi_> i lierally installed 7 separate apps and NONE worked
[01:02] <topoi_> iBus doesn't work
[01:03] <topoi_> in practice it does nothing
[01:03] <topoi_> everything on my desktop works like a dream now but this alludes me
[01:04] <topoi_> linux isn't a good bet for chinese input is it?
[01:14] <topoi_> given that there's ubuntu kylin - WTF can't k/ubuntu input pinyin without this much ball ache?
[01:14] <topoi_> so pathetic that i have to use an online website to this job
[01:15] <cjwelborn> 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] <topoi_> cjwelborn have you tried livesreamer?
[01:15] <topoi_> DOWN WITH FLASH
[01:15] <cjwelborn> livestreamer? never heard of it.. i'm gonna go read up on it.
[01:16] <topoi_> have you got VLC?
[01:16] <cjwelborn> yeh, if I don't I can get it real quick.
[01:16] <topoi_> install livestreamer in the terminal
[01:17] <topoi_> http://xmodulo.com/2014/01/watch-live-streaming-video-command-line-linux.html
[01:17] <cjwelborn> cool thanks topoi_
[01:18] <topoi_> it converts youtube, vimeo, etc. to a stream viewable in VLC. you're welcome :)
[01:21] <Unit193> 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] <cjwelborn> good point Unit193, I didn't think of that. I'm gonna try it.

[04:50] <thechris> Hi, does anyone know how to get KDE to use dual monitors?
[04:50] <thechris> Right now, I've got two monitors that display the desktop,  but only one will accept applications.
[04:51] <thechris> eg, there is no edge that I can move applications across.  They just do the smart maximize.
[04:52] <thechris> obviously "desktop 1" vs "desktop 2" isn't the issue either.
[04:52] <thechris> The mouse will move to the other screen though.
[08:09] <jargon> what's 13.10 based on? debian7 or 6?
[08:25] <amichair> 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] <amichair> hmmm... lspci says configuration: driver=snd_hda_intel but vendor: NVIDIA Corporation, is that the problem?
[08:28] <amichair> how do I change it?
[09:11] <amichair> can anyone help in debugging audio problems?
[09:12] <valorie> hmmm
[09:12] <valorie> !nvidia
[09:12] <valorie> amichair: ^^^
[09:13] <valorie> !hdmi
[09:13] <valorie> nope, nothing more general
[09:13] <amichair> valorie: video is working, but the hdmi audio device is gone
[09:13] <valorie> a new drivers update hit lately, I think
[09:14] <amichair> in system settings -> multimedia there's only the 'built-in audio analog stereo' option now
[09:15] <amichair> I actually just installed the nvidia 331.49 drivers straight from the nvidia site, but it's the same. 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] <amichair> valorie: any idea how to check  where exactly things broke?
[09:16] <valorie> my only expertise is from fixing broken stuff in the past
[09:17] <valorie> but now, everything Just Works
[09:17] <valorie> not too useful to you
[09:17] <amichair> until you update, and then it stops ;-)
[09:17] <valorie> perhaps write to the kubuntu user list if you get no answers in the next few hours
[09:18] <valorie> sort of a slow time here usually
[09:22] <amichair> hmmm... I think it's a kde bug
[09:23] <amichair> if I mess around with the hardware tab (changing profiles) then suddenly new options appear in the device preference tab
[09:25] <amichair> 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] <amichair> 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] <valorie> :(
[09:30] <valorie> I don't know which team is doing that sort of stuff -- could be solid, which handles hardware
[09:30] <valorie> they have a chan: #solid
[09:31] <valorie> or ask in #kde, where they might know better
[09:31]  * valorie quits to pay full attention to the olympics
[09:32] <amichair> valorie: k, thanks!
[09:33] <valorie> good luck!
[09:34] <amichair> thanks :-)
[09:46] <lordievader> Good morning.

[12:38] <BluesKaj> dubis, what's your issue?
[12:38] <dubis> BlueKaj: I try to downgrade the java plugin of rekonq
[12:39] <dubis> BlueKaj: May be do know the path of the plugin directory of rekonq
[12:41] <BluesKaj> dubis, my advice is not to use rekonq , it's not stable a ready for everyday use. That's my opinion because my experience with it is as described
[12:42] <BluesKaj> I have to leave...BNBL
[12:42] <BluesKaj> BBL
[12:42] <dubis> BluesKaj: I need to explain so, I try be connected on special interface provided by Sun ORACLE java. Firefox and Chrome have bad display but they load JAVA 1.6.x plugin
[12:43] <dubis> BluesKaj: Rekonq has teh good display but it's loading the JAVA 1.7.x plugin and I ve certificate problem with this version snif
[12:43] <dubis> snob
[12:53] <dubis> BluesKaj, after reading this page https://www.kubuntuforums.net/showthread.php?59227-Rekonq-plugin-path%28s%29 should be   /usr/lib/browser/plugins
[13:17] <BluesKaj> dubis, yes that file path is probly correct, but perhaps the partner repos can provide the plugin
[13:17] <BluesKaj> canonical partner repository
[13:18] <dubis> with update-alternative i did the link didn't work
[13:26] <BluesKaj> try dist-upgrade, dubis
[13:27] <dubis> what is it this command
[13:27] <BluesKaj> update first of course
[13:28] <BluesKaj> sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade , in the terminal
[13:31] <dubis> Juste update of flash pluing and chrome browser

[14:51] <dubis> Bug 331385
[15:52] <osbinas> good evening
[15:52] <osbinas> :)
[15:57] <osbinas> hi all how to make root user activated in logon manager?
[15:57] <osbinas> at start up :)?
[15:58] <BluesKaj> !root
[16:00] <BluesKaj> osbinas, use the user and password you chose during the installation procedure
[16:02] <osbinas> but how to enable it im allready got  settup root user just i need to let me logon with him at startup
[16:02] <osbinas> where i can find file something like that BluesKaj
[16:03] <osbinas> kdmrc or some thin glike that :)
[16:18] <BluesKaj> osbinas, sorry Idon't know what you mean root user, pls read the ubottu post above
[16:19] <osbinas> at logon i system i wana choise use regular user and super user "root" how to enable it?
[16:20] <BluesKaj> in the terminal or virtual terminal it's sudo su
[16:20] <osbinas> runing kubuntu 13.10
[16:20] <BluesKaj> it's not like debian
[16:20] <BluesKaj> that's all I know
[16:21] <osbinas> :)
[16:22] <BluesKaj> 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] <BluesKaj> correction , sudo su osbinas
[16:33] <osbinas> BluesKaj im mean when logingon http://handytutorial.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/Login-as-root-300x222.png
[16:33] <osbinas> some  thing like that only with kde
[16:35] <BluesKaj> osbinas, are you getting the login page , lightdm ?
[16:40] <osbinas> nop thats way and asking :)
[16:41] <osbinas> BluesKaj
[16:42] <BluesKaj> you should have said so, user and userpassword are what are required on the login page, can you explain what happens after grub ?
[16:44] <osbinas> got logon screen :) and offering to me logon with my user account but not root user :)
[16:45] <osbinas> BluesKaj forgeting tag U :) im new in irc :D
[16:47] <BluesKaj> you don't need root user, kubuntu doesn't require root user, just normal user with root permissions, do you understand ?
[16:48] <BluesKaj> type in your username and password in the fields provided
[16:49] <mavihs> any tutorial recommendation for QML, apart from the documentation ? Thanks
[16:57] <lordievader> Good afternoon.
[17:03] <hovgaard> :-)
[17:03] <hovgaard> Howdy oki I did it I just quickly jad to see the new gnome so sudo-apt install ubuntu-desktop gnome-shell. Then I had fun for10 minutes and said no more back to my nice friend kde again, but now gnome-keyring keeps bugging me it has replaced kwallet and made my life miserable :-) I cant really seem to find a fix for it
[17:04] <hovgaard> I tried chmod -x on /etc/gnome-keyring* but didnt really fix my problem any ideas better than a reinstall would be lovely
[17:07] <lordievader> hovgaard: /etc is usually where the config files are stored the executables you can find with: whereis gnome-keyring
[17:08] <lordievader> There is probably a cleaner way to disableing gnome-keyring (like uninstalling), but since I don't use it I don't know.
[22:15] <apb1963_> How can I add a command to my right-click menu?  Specifically, when I right-click on a pdf file in Konsole, it will bring up a file manager and then I can bring up a pdf viewer.  I want to skip the file manager and go directly to the pdf viewer... or - ideally - other appropriate application as called for by the extension.
[22:46] <valorie> apb1963_: isn't there a box to check to make that happen?
[22:46] <valorie> if not, check in systemsettings, and set it there
[22:55] <en1gma> i just installed ubuntu desktop 13.06 is there an easy way to install kubuntu
[22:55] <en1gma> i dont want to do it all over again (took an hr)
[22:57] <apb1963_> en1gma, how did you install it the first time?
[22:57] <en1gma> unetbootin to my sd card then used that to install to hdd
[22:57] <en1gma> external hdd
[22:57] <apb1963_> valorie, I don't see a box... where in system settings please?
[22:58] <valorie> workspace behavior > default applications
[22:59] <apb1963_> en1gma, where was all the time spent?
[22:59] <en1gma> waiting for it to install. mostly downloading
[23:00] <apb1963_> valorie, I see workspace behavior... I don't see default apps.
[23:00] <apb1963_> en1gma, How about downloading an iso first?
[23:01] <en1gma> 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] <en1gma> i dont have any blank media and putting iso onto usb stick always problems
[23:02] <valorie> apb1963_: also there is file associations, where you can configure which pdf reader
[23:02] <valorie> en1gma: install kubuntu-desktop
[23:03] <valorie> no need for an iso again
[23:03] <en1gma> i do that from a term?
[23:03] <valorie> you will have both unity and kde desktops though
[23:03] <en1gma> more bloat*  oh well
[23:03] <valorie> you can do that from the cli or using synaptic or whatever you like
[23:04] <valorie> you can uninstall unity if you don't want it
[23:04] <valorie> !kde
[23:04] <apb1963_> valorie, I saw the file associations... but I don't think that's the issue?
[23:04] <valorie> it isn't "bloat" it is a different desktop and set of applications
[23:05] <valorie> you could have had just kde had you chosen the kubuntu iso rather than the ubuntu
[23:06] <valorie> apb1963_: I misspoke; the default applications doesn't cover PDF
[23:06] <valorie> :(
[23:06] <apb1963_> hmm
[23:06] <valorie> I should have checked that first
[23:06] <apb1963_> :)
[23:09] <apb1963_> so really that brings up an interesting question.... how does one add to that list of "services" on the default applications window?
[23:09] <apb1963_> which I'm guessing is the place to add what I want, to get the behavior I want.
[23:17] <valorie> apb1963_: I guess that would be a #kde question
[23:19] <valorie> or maybe it is because we don't provide a default PDF reader
[23:19] <valorie> that's possible
