craigI am setting up a customized distribution based on Kubuntu, and I have implemented a new default wallpaper.   I wish to change the default for how the wallpaper scales according to desktop resolution and aspect ratio.  Currently the default is set to "scaled" but I wish to set the default to "scaled & cropped". I am looking for the file that sets this default. Thank you in advance.03:42
miraiEhi, I have installed language pack from konsole. I have 2 users in my pc, if I login to the other user, the language is changed, but if I login to mine, it remains English. do you have any idea what config file to be changed, for instance it contains something like LOCALE=id_ID ...?04:06

OmnehHi there, I'm having some issues with a completely fresh install of Kubuntu 13.10: my wireless card works on the live USB (created with unetbootin) but on the installed system the driver fails to load and gives a backtrace with error failed to probe (hw address?) with error -12.  Does anyone have any ideas or suggestions?  10 finger interfaced paste: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7082976/04:59

kububuhey , is there a way to get a persistent mode on my live usb after haveing made the whole process *lili usb creator*?10:06
lordievaderkububu: With either Unetbootin or (K)Ubuntu's tool for making live-usb you can specify persistent storage.10:07
kububudoes that work when im in the live version from that usb device ?10:08
lordievaderkububu: You can probably make a secondary live-usb, but you cannot recreate the live-usb that you are currently booted to.10:09
kububusadly the casper lili made was not able to boot, no clue why10:14
artaohope someone knowledgable about display settings is live right now10:56
artaoi dual-boot win 7/kubuntu .... my LCD monitor died the other day ... I run dual monitor -- it WAS one LCD and one CRT ... since the LCD died, I'm now running two CRTs ... the thing is, the LCD died while I was in windows. the LCD was set to 1280x1024 @ 75hz ... Windows automatically saw that it was a different monitor, and reset the display to 1024x768 @ 75hz, and then I was able to change it to 1280x1024 @ 60hz ........... however, I t10:58
artaoried to boot to linux today, and due to the previous monitor settings (1280x1024 @ 75hz) linux won't display the desktop on my primary monitor ...... I can, of course, get to CLI just fine10:58
artaoSO!! how do I change my kubuntu desktop display settings so that my (now primary) CRT can actually display? ... seeing as it can't display 1280x1024 @75hz, only @60hz10:59
lordievaderartao: Can you login to your kde desktop?11:01
artaolordievader ... i cannot log in to the desktop proper, because the login screen is on my primary monitor, which shuts itself off due to kubuntu trying to display 1280x1024 @75hz11:09
artaowhat i CAN do is log into CLI via ctrl-alt-F211:09
lordievaderartao: Hmm, that might complicate things. Anyhow go to a tty and run: "DISPLAY=:0 xrandr --output default --auto" The output 'default' is a guess, this might be wrong, to get a list of names run xrandr without any argument.11:20
artaoi'm gonna look this up online as well, but i figured first step was to ask here =D11:22
artaothx11:22
artaoi did have to mess with xrandr a couple years ago to get something else to work right ..but now i've totally forgotten how to work with it LOL11:23
lordievaderartao: Also a nice read: http://www.linuxjournal.com/content/guerrilla-tactics-force-screen-mode-ubuntu11:23
lordievaderartao: Use "xrandr --help" for a synopsis, or see "man xrandr".11:24
artaothx11:31
artaoi can see this is gonna be a PITA already <sigh>11:31
artaoohwell11:31
mitchcRiddell: i seem to have lost my window title bars12:13
mitchcRiddell: only for kde apps, but if i maximise say, qt creator, the entire window goes black12:15
Riddellmitchc: did you check behind the sofa? if you lose something, it's nearly always there12:15
mitchci wish it was that easy12:15
mitchcnot a very successful update. i might have to just install something new, i think my environment is just broken12:16
roneyhello people12:40
Riddellhi roney12:41
roneywhy, when I run something with a GUI from the command line, it loads the default preferences and not the ones I chose?12:41
lordievaderHey roney12:42
roneyI mean, if I start firefox from konsole, it will render the ubuntu font while if I run it normally from the K menu, it will render the fonts I chose on system settings12:44
roneyI don't know if that's kubuntu specific or if it's something with konsole or kde itself12:44
BluesKaj'Morning folks12:58
AJ__Hey. Why am I getting extremely slow download speeds (10-20 kbps) using apt-get when I can get upto 1mbps speed using browser downloads?13:13
AJ__It's pretty annoying.13:13
hateballAJ__: are you downloading packages with your browser from the same mirror as you are with apt-get13:14
AJ__No, I13:16
AJ__I'm downloading other things. Is it that all the mirrors that I use are bogged down lately?13:17
AJ__I'm updating kdelibs using apt-get, pretty less download speeds. But I download itunes for instance, very high download speeds.13:18
AJ__I tried changing mirrors and selecting best servers, but they haven't been of much use.13:19
c2tarunHi everyone.13:42
=== ryan is now known as Guest98730
c2tarunI was reading some pages to improve fonts look on linux and everyone is editing ~/.fonts.conf file. But there is not fonts.conf file in my home. There is only one fonts.conf which is in /etc/fonts and it is mentioned there that we should not edit that file as it will be replaced. What should I do?13:44
artaoHELP!! my system is behaving REALLY sluggishly13:51
roneywrite a local.conf at /etc/fonts or a fonts.conf in your home13:51
artaogkrellm indicates heavy CPU useage, tho i have the system doing nothing at all13:51
roneythe arch linux wiki is has a pretty nice article explaining how to edit this file13:52
artaoi got the video issue sorted tho, so that's good13:52
artaohow do i bring up the task manager again? i've forgotten :\13:52
c2tarunroney: is there any plan for dropping support for ~/.fonts.conf file after ubuntu 12.04?13:54
artaonvm, i found it13:54
artaosystem monitor is showing nothing that should be cranking my CPU like this13:55
artaoit's showing Xorg is using up to 40% CPU (which seems rather high) ... but gkrallm is showing each core intermittently spiking up to 90%13:55
artaogenerally each core is at 50%, but alternating with spikes13:56
c2tarunartao: what is temperature of your system?13:56
artaotemp?13:56
artaolow13:56
artaowin 7 is running fine13:56
c2tarunartao: when did you check your temperature? And what version of Kubuntu are you using?13:56
artaoi just booted into kubuntu for the first time in months13:56
artaoi don't actually HAVE a CPU temp monitor13:57
artaobut i know for a fact it's not running hot13:57
c2tarunartao: you can install lm-sensors and then configure it by sudo sensors-detect13:57
artaoi know this isnt' a temperature issue13:58
artaosomething is using the CPU13:58
c2tarunartao: you can run top and see which process is taking most of your resources13:58
artaoand i'm running kubuntu 12-someting13:58
artaoqit says Xorg is13:59
artaoactually, top says Xorg is using 78%13:59
artaoWTF13:59
artaoO.O .. that's not right13:59
c2tarunartao: if you are using Ubuntu 12.04 or earlier then chances are you are KDE < 4.10. I'll recommend you upgrade your KDE to 4.10 or later. As speed of KDE dramatically increased after 4.1014:00
roneyc2tarun, don't know.14:00
artaowhy would Xorg be cranking like that?14:00
roneyspeed and memory usage14:00
c2tarunartao: can you share the output of cat /etc/lsb-release14:00
artao<sigh> ... i've been running this system for over a year .. i just haven't used it in several months14:00
artaoit worked just fine last time i used it14:01
artaocould this be related to the suddeen monitor change?14:01
artaoi previoiusly had an LCD hooked up .. now it's a CRT14:01
c2tarunartao: I don't think so. Is you new monitor is of very high resolution then previous one?14:01
artaosame resolution, lower refresh rate14:02
artaoi had to adjust the display settings on boot to even be able to SEE my primary display14:02
c2tarunartao: then I dont think its the problem14:02
artaoi run dual monitor14:02
artaoDISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu14:05
artaoDISTRIB_RELEASE=12.0414:05
artaoDISTRIB_CODENAME=precise14:05
artaoDISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Ubuntu 12.04.3 LTS"14:05
artao^^ that's my cat /etc/lsb-release14:05
artaoi'm'a try rebooting again now that i've re-set the display config14:06
BluesKajan upgrade to the gpu driver might also help14:06
BluesKajartao,^14:06
artaolike i said, everything ran smooth and awesome last time i used this OS14:06
artaothe only thing that has changed is the primary monitor14:07
artaowhy would Xorg suddently start hogging the CPU?14:08
artaoTHAT is the problem .. i need to find out why that is happening14:08
artaosure i'll update drivers n the rest of the system once i get THAT sorted out14:09
artaoit's a sad sad day when win 7 runs better than linux :\14:12
artao<sigh> rebooting14:13
artaoi just hope the display setting hold14:13
artaohmm ... maybe it's cuz a webcam is plugged in?14:13
artaojust realized that14:13
Rico_helle every body14:17
Rico_someone speak french i have a problem with the translation in french and kubuntu14:18
artaowell, it seems to be all better now upon reboot14:19
artaoeither Xorg got really confused by the display change, or it got confused by the webcam (which I forgot was plugged in)14:19
artaoeither way, everything is back to normal \o/14:20
artao=]14:20

v2Hello.  Is there any official mirrors with Kubuntu 12.04.2 AMD 64 ISO?  12.04.4 no longer supports my video card (Radeon 3870X2) with either open or bianry drivers.  I need to downgrade and lock the xorg version at whatever 12.04.2 had.17:31

v2Just tried 14.04 with the 3870X2 - doesn't work.  Goes to the desktop then flashes to black then back to the desktop then black and then nothing no video output keyboard lights (num, caps) also stop working.  CTRL-ALT-F1 - F12/DEL does nothing  It does power off cleanly (did not have to hold the power button).18:11
