AdemosHello. How would I disable libnotify? I found the way to disable notify-osd, but not libnotify: http://askubuntu.com/questions/35815/shortcut-to-hide-libnotify05:58
AdemosThe method on the webpage I linked didn't work, because notify-osd doesn't exist on my Kubuntu installation.05:59
valorieAdemos: you can't disable the notifications in systemsettings?06:16
valorieoh interesting, only network stuff06:17
valorienotify-osd can be installed if you want it06:20
valorie!infor notify-osd06:20
Ademosvalorie: Well the issue is, that I want to disable notifications for GTK applications.06:20
valorieoops06:20
valorie!info notify-osd06:21
ubottunotify-osd (source: notify-osd): daemon that displays passive pop-up notifications. In component main, is optional. Version 0.9.35+14.04.20140213-0ubuntu1 (trusty), package size 100 kB, installed size 787 kB06:21
Ademosvalorie: That is why I am trying to disable libnotify06:21
valorieright, but if you need the -osd package to do that, you can install it06:21
valorieit does seem like the long way around the barn06:21
Ademosvalorie: Haha, I see.06:21
valoriekde has gotten rid of most notifications06:22
valorieI rarely see one anymore06:22
AdemosI thought that notify-osd and libnotify were two different applications. Is that true? My understanding was that libnotify was made by Gnome and notify-osd was made by Ubuntu.06:23
AdemosI already found this command for disabling notify-osd: sudo chmod -x /usr/lib/notify-osd/notify-osd06:23
valorieI don't know; #ubuntu may know06:23
Ademosvalorie: Well the problem is, Ubuntu replaced libnotify with notify-osd. So in #ubuntu, they will offer the same notify-osd advice.06:24
AdemosAnyway though, thank you for your efforts. :)06:24
valorieheh, all I gave you was sympathy06:25
valorie:-)06:25
AdemosHaha, well thank you for that.06:25
valorieyou are welcome06:25
AdemosIt seems I was wrong about the difference between the two: notify-osd is a daemon and libnotify is a library. Source: libnotify06:25
AdemosWhoops, here's the source: http://askubuntu.com/questions/51603/notify-osd-and-libnotify-how-do-they-cooperate06:26
AdemosWhat's strange is, I am using Kubuntu which doesn't install libnotify by default.06:26
AdemosSo if I ask in #ubuntu, they will send me back to #kubuntu.06:26
AdemosBut if notify-osd is not installed, then libnotify must be working without it.06:26
AdemosSo I was asking in #kubuntu, since that is the distro I'm using and therefore would have the same set of default applications installed.06:27
AdemosBut perhaps my question is too much of a niche topic. :X06:27
AdemosWell anyway, thanks for responding, even if you couldn't help.06:28
AdemosSee you later. :)06:28
Ademosvalorie: Since I answered my question, I thought I would tell you the solution I found: Right click the notificiation area (circle with an "i" within it), click "Notification settings and un-check "Application notifications."06:35
AdemosThat was much easier than I expected, no need for bash terminal commands. :)06:35
Ademosvalorie: Anyway, have a good day/night.06:36

alvinHow do I prevent a service from starting at boot? (Samba for example. It's automatically installed when you install wine, but I don't need it to run.) I've read the Upstart documentation at http://upstart.ubuntu.com/cookbook/#disabling-a-job-from-automatically-starting and created a  /etc/init/samba.override file with the manual line in it. However, that absolutely does not work. The services keep starting at boot.07:02
lordievaderalvin: Comment the "start on" clause in the upstart script.07:02
alvinThat's just ugly07:03
alvinOh well. Documentation is wrong, I take it?07:03
alvinAssuming to bug #94065 this should work, but I'm not convinced07:11
ubottubug 94065 in upstart (Ubuntu) "init: add non-destructive means to disable a job" [Wishlist,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/9406507:11
lordievaderalvin: I believe you can use overrides, but I've never used those.07:11
alvinWell, I thought they didn't work, but I might be wrong. There were 2 services I didn't want to start at boot. samba and tor. Now Samba is actually not 1 service, but 2. (It changes from release to release....) smbd and nmbd. So, I should probably have made 2 .override files. Need to test. And tor? Well, tor does not seem to be an Upstart job.07:12
alvinThis is a mess. Upstart has always been a mess and now it will never be fixed. We'll get the systemd mess. I'm sceptical.07:13
alvinLet's try07:15
alvinAHA. It is working now, BUT, during boot you can still see a process fail. According to the log, it's Starting SMB/CIFS File and Active Directory ServerESC[234G[ESC[31mfailESC[39;49m. Now, why would samba fail to start when I don't even start it?07:19
TheFakeazneD525I wonder...07:22
TheFakeazneD525what would happen if someone were to reimplement KDE-full in GTK07:22
TheFakeazneD525not that I like gtk07:22
TheFakeazneD525but still, the thought is interesting07:23
TheFakeazneD525Qt is better tho07:23
alvinI'm a bit behind the times. Samba is now 3 daemons.07:23
TheFakeazneD525huh07:24

ayr-tonHey there. The accentuation stopped to work in kubuntu 14.04 with gtk and some old kde apps, like yakuake. I searched a lot in google but without good results.12:06

benedict_hi guys, how can i found out if a system is 32 or 64bit if i have only access to all partitions via live cd?13:51
SunTsubenedict_: just use file on any binary installed, it should tell you e.g. "ELF 64-bit LSB executable, x86-64" or "ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386"13:55
benedict_SunTsu: ahhhh thats very clever13:57
benedict_SunTsu: havent thought of that, thank you!13:57

BluesKajnoaXess, don't forget to update and upgrade all packages, before upgrading the OS14:20
BluesKajvia internet14:20
noaXesshey BluesKaj14:20
noaXesshave done that too.. also disabled all third party repos.. and so on.. check this bug i made https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-release-upgrader/+bug/132068414:20
ubottuLaunchpad bug 1320684 in ubuntu-release-upgrader (Ubuntu) "Upgrade 14.04 from 13.10 fails" [Undecided,New]14:20
noaXesstried 2-3h for upgrading.. no fix found..14:21
noaXessBluesKaj: any other hint?14:23
BluesKajnoaXess,, looks like it's time for a clean install, backup your data to a another partition or dev....too many net upgrades accumulates low level bugs if you don't use auto-remove and autoclean periodically14:24
noaXessi use autremove/clean periodically....14:25
noaXessi don't want make a clean install..14:25
noaXessnormaly i make updates over cli instead of muon updater..14:25
BluesKajnoaXess, the muon updater should be turned off then14:32
BluesKajbut I didn't have to turn it off here, so there's some other problem with it14:32
noaXessBluesKaj: have you made a upgrade from 13.10 to 14.04?14:35
BluesKajnoaXess, yes14:37
BluesKajbut I upgraded before the official release14:38
noaXesshm.. what you see if you do this: grep Broken /var/log/dist-upgrade/apt.log14:38
BluesKajnoaXess, there's no point, I'm already running 14.1014:40
noaXesshm..14:40
BluesKajnoaXess, why would i grep that anyway, i can just use the krunner14:41
noaXess?14:45
BluesKajkrunner = alt +F2 /var/log etc15:26
