SMillerHow does one apply a patch to a kernel source? I tried to use command (patch -p1 < /usr/src/0004-HID-kye-Add-support-for-3-tablets.patch) into the konsole and was asked "File to patch:" and put in Kconfig.hz and was given "Permission denied". Am I doing it right or am I missing something?02:15

SavagemillerHello. Is there any resources that explain about the kernel program? Mostly about installing patchies. For version 3.13.0-32. On K.ubuntu.03:06

six86Hello. Do you know the problem with apparently SMB mounts going stale and blocking every application accessing them? Is there a solution for that? Appeared after the 14.04 upgrade i think.09:06

bzoltanhello kubuntu folks. I would need a friendly licensed maintainer who could review and approve an MR from us against the QtCreator packaging branch: https://code.launchpad.net/~kubuntu-packagers/kubuntu-packaging/qtcreator. The patch is rather simple -> https://code.launchpad.net/~zeller-benjamin/kubuntu-packaging/qtcreator-ubuntudevice-qmlprojects/+merge/228665 It enables ubuntu devices to be Run targets for QML apps.14:27

troy__Anybody here? I have important questions and i was told this konversation was where i should ask.17:25
lordievader!ask | troy__17:26
ubottutroy__: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience17:26

ToredederWell i have a big problem- i cant export display, start plasma-desktop or kwin automatically, i have to go into the terminal by pushing cntrl+alt+f1 and start them myself after i login on the graphical side. i am trying to find how to run/write a script to help with this, but i dont know how to. (sorry if thats hard to understand--it seemed simpler in my head)17:31
BluesKajTorededer, have you updted then upgraded since logging, missing upgradess might solve your problem17:36

LiamWprobably something in KMix? idk, I'm more from a gnome background18:22
LiamWin gnome, I'd do something like this http://i.imgur.com/HTAeubU.png18:24
soeeSouL_: go to system settings -> multimedia18:26
soeeand when hdmi is connected, you can select from the list output18:26
SouL_ah, yes, soee.18:27
SouL_Let's see if the tv plays something..18:27
soeeit will :)18:27
SouL_Still not :(18:30
SouL_I'm looking at kmixer to see if I have to select master channel or something18:30
soeebut video works ?18:30
SouL_ye yes!18:30
SouL_video works out of the box18:30
soeeall i was doing was to hcnage output in system settings18:30
soeebut maybe some channel is muted18:30
SouL_Oh18:35
SouL_Now I listen when I do "front right" or "front left"18:35
SouL_But not the music fro myoutube, for example18:35
SouL_her voice is beautiful :$18:37

SouL_No, I'm going to install them18:43
SouL_.exe wtf xD18:45
SouL_Why I need to install things from microsoft?18:45
LiamWworks as long as it's ELF format18:45
LiamWone can read the first four bytes of an executable to tell if it's an ELF file18:45
SouL_It worked!!18:47
lordievaderSouL_: The kubuntu-restricted-extras does not contain any Windows executables ;)18:47
SouL_Ohh guys :(18:47

SouL_Here it says..18:48
SouL_GStreamer18:48
LiamWIn one of my games, I found that I had issues with PulseAudio over HDMI so I used ALSA instead and it worked better18:48
lordievaderSouL_: Does your TV expect 48kHz and does your soundcard output 44.1kHz? (Or the other way around...)18:49
SouL_I'm going to reboot. Thank you guys very much, Let's talk later18:49

Torededersorry this is my first time using konversation19:02
lordievaderTorededer: Hmm, that seems to be in order. If I understand correctly, lightdm does not start on boot? And you get a text-based login prompt?19:03
Toredederlightdm... im not sure if it starts on boot for me,19:05
Toredederlordievader i have to type in export DISA19:06

ToredederBluesKaj i updated nautilus, that was the upgrade i was missing.19:08
LiamWupgrading nautilus wouldn't do much19:08
LiamWKDE prefers dolphin anyway19:08
LiamWnautilus is a gnome thing19:08
lordievaderTorededer: So X is running, what happens when you press ctrl + alt + f8 after a reboot?19:09
BluesKajTorededer, nautilus is not a kubuntu app, are you running kubuntu or ubuntu?19:17
LiamWperhaps kubuntu with nautilus installed afterwards19:17

=== juboxi is now known as jubo2
Toredederlordievader when in the boot process are you talking about?19:59
ToredederLiamW you would know better than me, you installed it for me :p20:00
lordievaderTorededer: After you get a text-based login screen, as in http://www.coolpctips.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/tty-console.png20:00
LiamWlordievader: no text-based login screen20:00
LiamWkdm is installed, the greeter appears20:00
LiamWhowever20:01
LiamWafter logging in, nothing happens20:01
LiamWplasma and kwin have to be started manually20:01
Toredederlordievader its just what LiamW said.20:02
LiamWthis is basically done by hitting Ctrl+Alt+F1 (to switch to tty1), then logging in to the shell, and running the commands20:02
lordievaderTorededer never said anything about kdm?20:02
lordievaderDid I miss something?20:02
LiamWTorededer: nope20:02
LiamWlightdm is not installed20:02
LiamWlordievader: you didn't miss anythinig20:02
ToredederLiamW should i install it?20:03
lordievaderAnyhow, kdm is not really supported anymore by Kubuntu.20:03
LiamWno20:03
LiamWlordievader: kdm isn't really the problem20:03
lordievaderLiamW: This was a crucial bit of info, such things should also be said...20:03
LiamWwell, maybe20:03
lordievaderTorededer: Yes, install lightdm, remove kdm and reboot.20:03
Toredederlordievader sorry for tag teaming you with LiamW but he knows a lot more than me about linux. i just switched to linux looking for a new solution because my computer is SUPER SSSLLLOOOWWW and i dont really know much about it so...20:05
LiamWwell, for a thinkpad from seven years ago it's still running fairly well20:05
ToredederLiamW but you always tell me it sucks XD20:06
LiamWit really does20:06
Toredederlordievader do i do "apt-get remove kdm" then "apt-get install lightdm"?20:07
LiamWswitch to a text console first20:07
LiamWremoving kdm will kill X20:07
lordievaderKubuntu isn't really the right choice for an old laptop, then you'd rather want to look into Xubuntu or Lubuntu.20:07
LiamWneither worked20:08
ToredederLiamW well yeah i know that much, it had 128mb of ram20:08
LiamWlordievader: both hung on the install, the ubuntu net installer did though20:08
LiamW*didn't20:08
lordievaderTorededer: I'd switch them around, and listen to LiamW ;)20:08
lordievaderTorededer: Or run it in screen ;)20:08
Toredederlordievader switch them around? what do you mean20:09
lordievaderapt-get install lubuntu-desktop?20:09
LiamWsudo apt-get remove kubuntu-desktop && sudo apt-get autoremove && sudo apt-get install lubuntu-dekstop20:10
lordievaderTorededer: First install lightdm and then remove kdm.20:10
LiamWjust ignore me for now20:10
Toredederlol which one of you should i listen to20:10
lordievaderTorededer: Could even be that lightdm removes kdm itself.20:10
lordievaderLiamW: Bit drastic ;), they can exist side by side.20:11
Toredederlordievader so i should use the code the LiamW just gave me?20:11
LiamWno20:11
LiamWswitch to a text console (tty1) and write20:11
LiamW`sudo apt-get install lightdm`20:12
LiamWthen go through it blah blah blah20:12
LiamWset lightdm as the default display manager20:12

Toredederk will do it now, dont expect me to be back soon21:04
ToredederLiamW its already installed apparently but then whats the problem...21:07
LiamWdo `sudo dpkg-reconfigure kdm`21:07
LiamWthen select lightdm21:08
aguitelanyone install kubuntu on chromebook ?21:09
ToredederLiamW kk21:11
