| lordievader | Good morning. | 07:16 |
|---|---|---|
| BluesKaj | 'Morning folks | 09:14 |
| Fuzzywhirlpool | yeah, morning. | 09:47 |
| lordievader | o/ | 09:47 |
| Fuzzywhirlpool | Has the usb hdd eject problem beeb solved? | 09:47 |
| Fuzzywhirlpool | usb hdd doesn't spin down when ejected via kde safely remove. | 09:48 |
| lordievader | Doesn't that depend on the hard drive implementation? | 09:49 |
| lordievader | I've seen harddrives that do and that don't spin down after an unmount. | 09:49 |
| Fuzzywhirlpool | Gnome has the safely remove function properly spins down and turn off hdd. | 09:57 |
| Fuzzywhirlpool | On KDE, to achieve the same goal, udisks need to be installed and do the safely removal process by issuing `sudo udisks --detach /dev/sdb` | 09:58 |
| lordievader | Fuzzywhirlpool: Have you made a bug report? | 09:59 |
| Fuzzywhirlpool | I've reported to KDE bugs, but it's marked as duplicate of bug 270808 | 10:03 |
| ubottu | Error: Launchpad bug 270808 could not be found | 10:03 |
| Fuzzywhirlpool | Sorry, ubottu. I didn't post the bug on launchpad. | 10:04 |
| lordievader | Fuzzywhirlpool: Have you seen the status? Closed Wontfix. "Closing the thread for lack of activity." | 10:07 |
| Fuzzywhirlpool | Yeah, I know it won't be fixed. Not many users have interest to spin down the usb hdd to extend the hdd lifetime. | 10:22 |
| Fuzzywhirlpool | For now, I just use udisks to achieve the safe removal. | 10:23 |
| lordievader | Fuzzywhirlpool: From what I've read that wasn't the reason for closure. The original reported didn't answer questions or performed tests. | 10:25 |

| BenediktXVII | Hello everybody. Maybe somebody can help me, I am having serious overheating issues with my laptop. It goes up to 80-90° C even when I just have my browser open and kontact. I updated my graphic cards driver, but though it improved my computer still overheats. I need to bring in a job for tomorrow (I am a translator working with OmegaT) but it is impossible to even launch the app, it is way too slow to even consider doing my translation. | 12:44 |
| function9 | BenediktXVII: it sounds like your laptop needs a service | 12:53 |
| lordievader | BenediktXVII: Have you blown out the fan ports with compressed air? | 12:55 |
| BenediktXVII | nope, I will try that | 12:55 |
| BenediktXVII | thanks for the tip, now the challenge will be to dismantle it | 12:55 |
| BenediktXVII | I am backing up my files right now | 12:56 |
| function9 | +1 on compressed air | 13:00 |
| BenediktXVII | on sunday I have nowhere to buy that, I was thinking of just dismantling the laptop and brush out the the dust. | 13:02 |
| BenediktXVII | I have an anti-static brush | 13:02 |
| BenediktXVII | which I use to clean camera lenses | 13:02 |
| function9 | BenediktXVII: when push comes to shove, try a hair dryer??? Set it for high speed cold air | 13:15 |
| bwr | hi room | 13:24 |
| BenediktXVII | I will try that too | 13:24 |
| BenediktXVII | Is it normal that copying 200 GB of data to an external USB HDD takes over 3 hours ? | 13:38 |
| Meerkat | BenediktXVII, possibly, probably. Are there many small files? | 13:39 |
| BenediktXVII | it is my home folder | 13:40 |
| lordievader | BenediktXVII: If usb2.0, yes. | 13:40 |
| BenediktXVII | oh, ok | 13:40 |
| Meerkat | then yes. It will take a long time. | 13:40 |
| BenediktXVII | And I imagine that the overheating problem doesn't help either | 13:43 |
| BenediktXVII | I am just running KFolderSync and Quassel and my cpu is at 78°C despite that I elevated my laptop and put Ice Packs underneath | 13:44 |
| === Quintasan_ is now known as Quintasan | ||
| function9 | Copying files uses a lot more CPU resource than RAM, hence it would overheat a bit more, but mine doesn't run that high temps(laptop). My laptop averages around 50-55C | 14:01 |
| BenediktXVII | mine plays between 75 and 82 C, with two icepacks underneath. Without icepacks he goes up to 95 and shuts down. | 14:03 |
| BenediktXVII | I don't get it, CPU usage 32% | 14:06 |
| === sergio_ is now known as Guest37437 | ||
| function9 | excessive dust build up can do that, I'd pull it apart and give it a good, air compressor | 15:43 |

| punkgeek | i need encodeing my php file in /var/www/html, what should i do? :-? | 16:24 |
| lordievader | punkgeek: I think you can better ask in ##php, this is a desktop channel. | 16:26 |
| punkgeek | no, i using kubuntu. i need set password or encoding with LUCKS, but i dont no, is this hurting my script? | 16:30 |
| lordievader | punkgeek: I don't understand anything of what you are saying. You mention three different things that have nothing to do with one another. | 16:36 |
| 23LAA1HV9 | any idea about compatibility between libvisual-projectm and latest amarok? i have it installed but cant find it in amarok :( | 16:42 |
| meoblast001 | hi | 17:04 |
| meoblast001 | i'm using the Disks utility and i'm trying to do the SMART test on an external encrypted hard drive | 17:04 |
| meoblast001 | the option in the menu is disabled (grey) and there is nothing in the documentation explaining why this would be disabled | 17:04 |
| lordievader | meoblast001: What does smartctl say? | 17:05 |
| meoblast001 | without a -d option: /dev/sdb: Unknown USB bridge [0x0bc2:0xa003 (0x419)] | 17:06 |
| lordievader | Is it connected through usb? | 17:06 |
| meoblast001 | yes | 17:06 |
| lordievader | For as far as I know smart over usb is not supported. | 17:07 |
| meoblast001 | oh. ouch | 17:07 |
| meoblast001 | accidentally got some cords tangled and the drive was swinging around while on | 17:07 |
| lordievader | meoblast001: http://www.pcreview.co.uk/forums/smart-over-usb-t2314626.html | 17:08 |
| meoblast001 | oh ouch | 17:11 |
| meoblast001 | thanks lordievader | 17:11 |
| lordievader | No problem. | 17:13 |
| em | Is there a way to tile windows in Kubuntu? | 17:38 |
| lordievader | em: I thought kwin had a tiling mode. | 17:49 |

| Monika | I installed Kubuntu in English by accident, I added German through the system settings - but in keyboard layouts only Swiss German is available, not German German ... how do I get it? | 21:34 |
| bprompt | Monika: how about in the system settings > locale > hardware > keyboard model? | 21:48 |
| Monika | 104 keys | 21:54 |
| Monika | @ bprompt | 21:56 |
| bprompt | hmm | 22:04 |
| bprompt | Monika: can't add a new one from the Layout tab there? did you check the "configure layouts" chekmark? it should give an option to [+Add] | 22:04 |
| Monika | under add there are only two choices | 22:05 |
| Monika | none of them is Java | 22:05 |
| Monika | one is CVS | 22:05 |
| Monika | one is Resource | 22:06 |
| Monika | ah sorry | 22:06 |
| Monika | I'm on the wrong chan | 22:06 |
| bprompt | heheh | 22:06 |
| Monika | okay, I checked the configure layouts | 22:06 |
| Monika | before that there was only US English | 22:07 |
| Monika | now I can add some other | 22:07 |
| Monika | but only German, Swiss is in the list | 22:07 |
| Monika | not German | 22:07 |
| bprompt | hmmm | 22:10 |
| Monika | do I need to install more packages? | 22:12 |
| bprompt | sounds like... just wondering which ones | 22:12 |
| Monika | I have installed language-pack-kde-de language-pack-de | 22:13 |

| bprompt | Monika: this is for 14.04 right? | 22:14 |
| Monika | 14.10 | 22:14 |
| Monika | I had the same problem with a 14.04 install | 22:14 |
| bprompt | I'm on 12.04 | 22:14 |
| Monika | but there after doing all the updates the other Layouts were added | 22:14 |
| Monika | and I installed 14.10 on another system, there German-German layout is available | 22:14 |
| Monika | but I never installed that one in English | 22:15 |
| bprompt | hmm btw I was watching a few mins ago that germany won the 2014 cup =) | 22:18 |
| Monika | hehe :-) | 22:18 |
| Monika | I didn't, but I can hear from the noise on the streets that the German team won ^^ | 22:18 |
