[03:42] <craig> I 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.
[04:06] <miraiE> hi, 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 ...?
[04:59] <Omneh> Hi 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/

[09:58] <Moscherkobold> good morning
[09:58] <Moscherkobold> i try to find this folder
[09:58] <Moscherkobold> Unzip the fre3vo & misc_version packages and save flashgc to the same folder as adb (the /platform-tools folder within the Android SDK folder).
[09:59] <Moscherkobold> after installing
[09:59] <Moscherkobold> with
[09:59] <Moscherkobold> sudo apt-get install android-tools-adb
[09:59] <Moscherkobold> sudo apt-get install android-tools-fastboot
[10:03] <lordievader> Good morning.
[10:06] <kububu> hey , is there a way to get a persistent mode on my live usb after haveing made the whole process *lili usb creator*?
[10:07] <lordievader> kububu: With either Unetbootin or (K)Ubuntu's tool for making live-usb you can specify persistent storage.
[10:08] <kububu> does that work when im in the live version from that usb device ?
[10:09] <lordievader> kububu: You can probably make a secondary live-usb, but you cannot recreate the live-usb that you are currently booted to.
[10:14] <kububu> sadly the casper lili made was not able to boot, no clue why
[10:56] <artao> hope someone knowledgable about display settings is live right now
[10:58] <artao> i 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 t
[10:58] <artao> ried 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 fine
[10:59] <artao> SO!! 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 @60hz
[11:01] <lordievader> artao: Can you login to your kde desktop?
[11:09] <artao> lordievader ... 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 @75hz
[11:09] <artao> what i CAN do is log into CLI via ctrl-alt-F2
[11:20] <lordievader> artao: 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.
[11:22] <artao> i'm gonna look this up online as well, but i figured first step was to ask here =D
[11:22] <artao> thx
[11:23] <artao> i 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 LOL
[11:23] <lordievader> artao: Also a nice read: http://www.linuxjournal.com/content/guerrilla-tactics-force-screen-mode-ubuntu
[11:24] <lordievader> artao: Use "xrandr --help" for a synopsis, or see "man xrandr".
[11:31] <artao> thx
[11:31] <artao> i can see this is gonna be a PITA already <sigh>
[11:31] <artao> ohwell
[12:13] <mitchc> Riddell: i seem to have lost my window title bars
[12:15] <mitchc> Riddell: only for kde apps, but if i maximise say, qt creator, the entire window goes black
[12:15] <Riddell> mitchc: did you check behind the sofa? if you lose something, it's nearly always there
[12:15] <mitchc> i wish it was that easy
[12:16] <mitchc> not a very successful update. i might have to just install something new, i think my environment is just broken
[12:40] <roney> hello people
[12:41] <Riddell> hi roney
[12:41] <roney> why, when I run something with a GUI from the command line, it loads the default preferences and not the ones I chose?
[12:42] <lordievader> Hey roney
[12:44] <roney> I 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 settings
[12:44] <roney> I don't know if that's kubuntu specific or if it's something with konsole or kde itself

[13:13] <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.
[13:14] <hateball> AJ__: are you downloading packages with your browser from the same mirror as you are with apt-get
[13:16] <AJ__> No, I
[13:17] <AJ__> I'm downloading other things. Is it that all the mirrors that I use are bogged down lately?
[13:18] <AJ__> I'm updating kdelibs using apt-get, pretty less download speeds. But I download itunes for instance, very high download speeds.
[13:19] <AJ__> I tried changing mirrors and selecting best servers, but they haven't been of much use.
[13:42] <c2tarun> Hi everyone.
[13:44] <c2tarun> I 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?
[13:51] <artao> HELP!! my system is behaving REALLY sluggishly
[13:51] <roney> write a local.conf at /etc/fonts or a fonts.conf in your home
[13:51] <artao> gkrellm indicates heavy CPU useage, tho i have the system doing nothing at all
[13:52] <roney> the arch linux wiki is has a pretty nice article explaining how to edit this file
[13:52] <artao> i got the video issue sorted tho, so that's good
[13:52] <artao> how do i bring up the task manager again? i've forgotten :\
[13:54] <c2tarun> roney: is there any plan for dropping support for ~/.fonts.conf file after ubuntu 12.04?
[13:54] <artao> nvm, i found it
[13:55] <artao> system monitor is showing nothing that should be cranking my CPU like this
[13:55] <artao> it's showing Xorg is using up to 40% CPU (which seems rather high) ... but gkrallm is showing each core intermittently spiking up to 90%
[13:56] <artao> generally each core is at 50%, but alternating with spikes
[13:56] <c2tarun> artao: what is temperature of your system?
[13:56] <artao> temp?
[13:56] <artao> low
[13:56] <artao> win 7 is running fine
[13:56] <c2tarun> artao: when did you check your temperature? And what version of Kubuntu are you using?
[13:56] <artao> i just booted into kubuntu for the first time in months
[13:57] <artao> i don't actually HAVE a CPU temp monitor
[13:57] <artao> but i know for a fact it's not running hot
[13:57] <c2tarun> artao: you can install lm-sensors and then configure it by sudo sensors-detect
[13:58] <artao> i know this isnt' a temperature issue
[13:58] <artao> something is using the CPU
[13:58] <c2tarun> artao: you can run top and see which process is taking most of your resources
[13:58] <artao> and i'm running kubuntu 12-someting
[13:59] <artao> qit says Xorg is
[13:59] <artao> actually, top says Xorg is using 78%
[13:59] <artao> WTF
[13:59] <artao> O.O .. that's not right
[14:00] <c2tarun> artao: 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 4.10
[14:00] <roney> c2tarun, don't know.
[14:00] <artao> why would Xorg be cranking like that?
[14:00] <roney> speed and memory usage
[14:00] <c2tarun> artao: can you share the output of cat /etc/lsb-release
 ... i've been running this system for over a year .. i just haven't used it in several months
[14:01] <artao> it worked just fine last time i used it
[14:01] <artao> could this be related to the suddeen monitor change?
[14:01] <artao> i previoiusly had an LCD hooked up .. now it's a CRT
[14:01] <c2tarun> artao: I don't think so. Is you new monitor is of very high resolution then previous one?
[14:02] <artao> same resolution, lower refresh rate
[14:02] <artao> i had to adjust the display settings on boot to even be able to SEE my primary display
[14:02] <c2tarun> artao: then I dont think its the problem
[14:02] <artao> i run dual monitor
[14:05] <artao> DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu
[14:05] <artao> DISTRIB_RELEASE=12.04
[14:05] <artao> DISTRIB_CODENAME=precise
[14:05] <artao> DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Ubuntu 12.04.3 LTS"
[14:05] <artao> ^^ that's my cat /etc/lsb-release
[14:06] <artao> i'm'a try rebooting again now that i've re-set the display config
[14:06] <BluesKaj> an upgrade to the gpu driver might also help
[14:06] <BluesKaj> artao,^
[14:06] <artao> like i said, everything ran smooth and awesome last time i used this OS
[14:07] <artao> the only thing that has changed is the primary monitor
[14:08] <artao> why would Xorg suddently start hogging the CPU?
[14:08] <artao> THAT is the problem .. i need to find out why that is happening
[14:09] <artao> sure i'll update drivers n the rest of the system once i get THAT sorted out
[14:12] <artao> it's a sad sad day when win 7 runs better than linux :\
 rebooting
[14:13] <artao> i just hope the display setting hold
[14:13] <artao> hmm ... maybe it's cuz a webcam is plugged in?
[14:13] <artao> just realized that
[14:17] <Rico_> helle every body
[14:18] <Rico_> someone speak french i have a problem with the translation in french and kubuntu
[14:19] <artao> well, it seems to be all better now upon reboot
[14:19] <artao> either Xorg got really confused by the display change, or it got confused by the webcam (which I forgot was plugged in)
[14:20] <artao> either way, everything is back to normal \o/

[17:31] <v2> Hello.  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.
[17:39] <maelcum> kwin performance is *terrible* with both nv and radeon (some r600 card) drivers in 14.04... probably a bad version of kwin.
[18:11] <v2> Just 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).
