[01:32] <Omega9> hi guys
[07:58] <georgelappies> hi all, what is baloo ?
[08:16] <Pogo> Hi all. I've been playing with the new Kubuntu on my netbook over the past couple of days, looking for an update from Ubuntu 10.04  NBR. I'm struggling to do some things that seem obvious and necessary, such as replacing the  widgets (I guess) on the opening screen  with things that I would use. I hav figured out how to add and remove things on the favourutes bar, and I can add and delete  the widgets on the screen using a list that I
[08:16] <Pogo> o I delete things off that list, and add things that I want?
[08:41] <ophkilter> someone how laptop pkgs got installed and are conflicting with my plasma 5 upgrade, thing is I'm using a desktop so i don't need backlight packages etc. how can I completely remove all laptop packages and keep them from being installed on future updates ?
[08:41] <ophkilter> specifically powerdevil
[08:43] <ophkilter> i've pulled the dpkg list and know how to change install to hold , is there a specific package that will trigger the rest of them to be removed also, should i use deinstall instead of hold
[09:21] <lordievader> Good morning.
[09:50] <dnivra> hello. I logged into a guest account on Kubuntu and locked the session. Since it's a guest account created on request, how can I find out the password for logging back in?
[10:04] <BluesKaj> 'Morning
[10:27] <tjingboem_> i have no sound in firefox. any ideas?
[10:28] <tjingboem_> i have the flashplayer plugin installed
[10:28] <lordievader> tjingboem_: Check pavucontrol to see if pulseaudio receives the sound.
[10:28] <tjingboem_> i'll try
[10:30] <tjingboem_> i installed pavucontrol and it tells me it is unable to connect to PulseAudio
[10:31] <BluesKaj> tjingboem_, then check if pulseaudio is installed
[10:31] <lordievader> tjingboem_: Firefox probably experiences the same error.
[10:32] <lordievader> tjingboem_: And make sure pulseaudio is running.
[10:33] <tjingboem_> i have pulseaudio installed but i don't know if it is running.
[10:33] <tjingboem_> how can i check that?
[10:34] <lordievader> tjingboem_: ps aux|grep pulse
[10:35] <tjingboem_> menno     5179  0.0  0.0  11748   924 pts/2    S+   12:34   0:00 grep --color=auto pulse
[10:35] <tjingboem_> the fist is my name :)
[10:35] <lordievader> tjingboem_: If that is all that is returned pulseaudio is not running.
[10:35] <tjingboem_> okay
[10:35] <lordievader> tjingboem_: From a terminal run: pulseaudio --start
[10:35] <tjingboem_> good to know
[10:36] <lordievader> tjingboem_: Then open pavucontrol again to check if it can connect.
[10:36] <tjingboem_> W: [pulseaudio] authkey.c: Failed to open cookie file '/home/menno/.config/pulse/cookie': No such file or directory
[10:36] <tjingboem_> W: [pulseaudio] authkey.c: Failed to load authorization key '/home/menno/.config/pulse/cookie': No such file or directory
[10:38] <lordievader> tjingboem_: Is that a blocking warning? In other words does it fail to start?
[10:39] <tjingboem_> i guess it doesn't run
[10:39] <tjingboem_> i will try with sudo
[10:39] <lordievader> tjingboem_: Oeh, no don't do that.
[10:39] <tjingboem_> too late :0
[10:39] <lordievader> PA is supposed to run in a user-session.
[10:39] <tjingboem_> right
[10:39] <lordievader> System-wide instances are discouraged.
[10:39] <tjingboem_> but i got new info: Cannot access autospawn lock
[10:40] <tjingboem_> - whatever that means -
[10:40] <lordievader> Anyhow run the 'ps aux|grep pulse' command again to see if pulse is running somewhere.
[10:40] <BluesKaj> tjingboem_, system settings>multimedia>audio and video settings>audio hardware setup tab, check theoutput setting
[10:40] <tjingboem_> menno     5229  0.0  0.1 568352  5904 ?        S<l  12:36   0:00 pulseaudio --start
[10:40] <tjingboem_> menno     5372  0.0  0.0  11748   924 pts/2    S+   12:40   0:00 grep --color=auto pulse
[10:41] <tjingboem_> it has changed...
[10:41] <lordievader> tjingboem_: Ah it's running :)
[10:41] <tjingboem_> AND...i have sound, but right channel only
[10:42] <tjingboem_> but progress!
[10:42] <lordievader> tjingboem_: Does pavucontrol confirm that there is sound only in one channel?
[10:43] <tjingboem_> ah ... i have a window now with pavucontrol
[10:45] <tjingboem_> in the pavucontrol i have to set left to 153% and right to 65% to get a good division between left and right
[10:49] <BluesKaj> tjingboem_, ???
[10:49] <tjingboem_> i found the balance problem
[10:49] <tjingboem_> it was the mixer from the soundcard
[10:49] <tjingboem_> it just works - thanks lordievader
[10:50] <tjingboem_> i didn't know about pavucontrol
[10:50] <lordievader> tjingboem_: No problem, though I'm a bit confused about your setup. But hey if it works :)
[10:50] <tjingboem_> i'm using KXStudio
[10:50] <tjingboem_> but it is kubuntu 14.04
[10:51] <tjingboem_> no one was responding me there
[10:51] <tjingboem_> thanks again!
[10:52] <tjingboem_> normally KXStudio id set up for music work
[10:52] <lordievader> tjingboem_: It could explain why pulseaudio wasn't running tough.
[10:52] <tjingboem_> uses jack as default
[10:52] <lordievader> Jackd doesn't like PA.
[10:53] <tjingboem_> in KXStudio one is able to connect the sound of firefox with jack
[10:54]  * lordievader never liked jackd much
[10:54] <tjingboem_> for example Ardour need jack
[10:55] <tjingboem_> and you can run multiple sound programs at the same time
[10:55] <tjingboem_> and link between them as you like
[10:55] <lordievader> tjingboem_: I know, I've used it. But I simply don't like it.
[10:56] <tjingboem_> does jack not provide for better latency?
[10:56] <tjingboem_> better than alsa?
[10:57] <lordievader> I thought jack still goes through ALSA? Anyhow, I don't like it because it's a pita to set up and when you are done going back to PA can be a hell too.
[10:58] <tjingboem_> yes it is work :P
[10:59] <tjingboem_> i had it all running in 12.04
[11:00] <tjingboem_> but i have to so it all over again
[11:00] <tjingboem_> do
[11:01] <tjingboem_> okay - see you next time - bye!
[11:01] <lordievader> o/
[11:01] <BluesKaj> tjingboem_, https://www.kubuntuforums.net/archive/index.php/t-61044.html
[11:02] <tjingboem_> thanks BluesKaj, i bookmarked your link and will check it later!
[11:02] <BluesKaj> yeah, i always thought that alsa and jack worked together
[11:03] <tjingboem_> have to go, bye
[11:03] <lordievader> Jack doesn't show up in the kernel config, ALSA does ;)
[11:03] <BluesKaj> I found jack clunky, but that could be my setup configuration
[12:28] <robotdevil> how come kmix wont always launch from the terminal?
[12:33] <peace> ..
[13:41] <dthacker> lordievader, are you around?
[13:41] <lordievader> dthacker: Jup, still here.
[13:43] <dthacker> regarding the video issue.   Yesterday I saw an error in kern.log that said my BIOS was improperly identifying my video card.   I was considiering a BIOS update, but the last thing you said was that you thought that the BIOS was not at fault.  Do you have another direction I should look in?
[13:45] <lordievader> dthacker: You put a 9600GT in the machine right? And it was recognized as a 9600gt right?
[13:46] <dthacker> lordievader: yes, lspci shows me the card I expect to see.
[13:47] <lordievader> dthacker: From that I concluded the problem is likely not the BIOS.
[13:52] <dthacker> lordievader: fair enough
[13:55] <n8w> hey
[13:56] <lordievader> o/
[13:57] <n8w> newly installed widgets r not showing up in the list....does anyone know why?
[13:57] <swex> hey
[13:57] <swex> hello all
[13:57] <n8w> kde
[13:57] <swex> anybody knows how kded4 is starting?
[13:58] <swex> don't know why it stops working after suspend/resume on my system.
[16:23] <m_tadeu> hi...I just installed plasma active....now, how do I activate it?
[16:36] <tjingboem_> how can i add printers? i do not see it in System Settings?!
[16:37] <BluesKaj> tjingboem_, do you kubuntu-desktop installed?
[16:38] <BluesKaj> have
[16:43] <tjingboem_> i think i have them installed via CUPS but i was expecting a module for it...
[16:43] <tjingboem_> yes, kubuntu desktop
[16:45] <BluesKaj> tjingboem_, printers should be available in system settings , which kubuntu ?
[16:45] <tjingboem_> KXStudio 14.04
[16:46] <tjingboem_> hello again BluesKaj, by the way
[16:46] <BluesKaj> hi tjingboem_
[16:50] <BluesKaj> ok tjingboem_ that's not exactly Kubuntu so I"m not sure what you may have installed or not installed
[16:50] <lordievader> tjingboem_: Isn't there a KXStudio channel on Freenode?
[16:51] <tjingboem_> sure there is  - but they are not so fast as you :)
[16:51] <tjingboem_> i will be more patient then, thanks
[16:51] <lordievader> tjingboem_: But this could very well be one of the differences.
[17:10] <Shinkawa> Hello, i need help with kubuntu, someone can halp me?
[17:11] <lordievader> Shinkawa: What seems to be the problem?
[17:23] <BluesKaj> lordievader, not quick enough for instant gratification :)
[17:34] <georgelappies> lol @ BluesKaj :)
[19:07] <jdoles> apt-get upgrade is not cooperating: http://paste.kde.org/pnt1jd2zw (authentication issues)
[19:09] <lordievader> jdoles: From what repo are those packages coming from? (This usually points to packages not being signed)
[19:10] <jdoles> lordievader: it wasn't that. I can only hope that it was a non-zero exit statu of apt-get update at some point.
[19:10] <jdoles> lordievader: I just did another apt-get update and it did work.
[19:10] <jdoles> lordievader: but there were no visible error messages, so still undesirable.
[19:11] <jdoles> lordievader: it would probably be better to show in some clear red way that something failed.
[19:11] <BluesKaj> jdoles, 14.04?
[19:11] <lordievader> It's not an error. Just a warning.
[19:12] <jdoles> BluesKaj: 12.04.highest
[19:12] <BluesKaj> oh\
[19:12] <jdoles> lordievader: it would have been an error if I had ignored the warning.
[19:12] <lordievader> No. It would still be a warning.
[19:13] <jdoles> lordievader: it would have been my error.
[19:20] <meoblast001> hi. i have a bit of an issue. i'm running 13.10, and when i plug in my headphones, my microphone mutes entirely
