zxq9Ugh. Why does the Japanese local adhere to outdated Windows standards by default? Backslashes have yen mark glyphs in several fonts, jis7 instead of utf-8, etc. :-/04:02
zxq9I think Ubuntu is the only distro that behaves like this in ja-JP locale.04:03
valorievery strange04:05
valorieplease file a bug zxq904:06
valoriebest way is `ubuntu-bug locale` in the commandline04:06
zxq9I'm almost certain the response will be "that's a feature" -- but I'll file it anyway.04:07
valorieit doesn't sound like a feature to you, or to me04:08
blahblahblah99anyone here05:08
blahblahblah99Hi could anyone help me my kubuntu kde x64 issue please05:08
blahblahblah99Or can anyone point me in the right direction to fix my issue.  Its about my video card?05:13
valorieblahblahblah99: can you give more detail?05:17
blahblahblah99Valorie yes I can05:18
blahblahblah99So I have laptop with the GeForce 8200M G in it and I installed Kubuntu KDE x64.  So my screen or desktop is huge and I'm trying to get it to normal.  When I type a command in terminal it reads the GeForce 8200M G but in the "Driver Manager" it reads GeForce 9200M G.  I'm guessing that's the issue.  I also have not found anything that helped on line, but I'm also a newbie with linux.05:21
blahblahblah99I'm just looking for steps or command to do.  I don't want to install ubuntu, and I really wanted to use OpenSuse but samething although suse felt way too savy for me.  But i'm liking the Kubuntu just stuck, I appreciate it ""Valorie"" for your time.05:24
valorie!nvidia05:26
ubottuFor Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VideoDriverHowto05:26

valorieFor Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VideoDriverHowto <<< blahblahblah9905:31
blahblahblah99"Valorie" is this the same if it's a the 14.0405:37
valorieif you go through the steps, and determine the correct driver, yes05:38
blahblahblah99daumn this way harder than what i thought05:40
valoriedid you try this bit? "05:40
valorieVideo Cards05:40
valorieNote: Most nVidia-cards will work if you just install the nvidia-glx ("nvidia-glx-legacy" for older cards) package, and run this command: "sudo nvidia-glx-config enable"05:40
valorieit isn't hard, there are just lots of steps05:40
valorieand you have to be sure you don't skip any05:40
valorieI would try the above bit first, if you haven't already tried that05:41
blahblahblah99I can I give you my email incase I gotta ask you some more questions? I gotta get ready for work05:41
valorieI'm no expert, blahblahblah9905:43
valorieyour best bet is this channel05:43

kubuntuplasma5can anyone help me with advanced utopic beta installation?13:56
kubuntuplasma5I want to setup crypto+lvm+btrfs and got key error when creating crypto partition13:56
kubuntuplasma5and even when I install using guided sddm displays blank screen and complains about object being created in different QThread13:57
BluesKajkubuntuplasma5, this is a question for #ubuntu+1, but if you installed the new kernel for beta and using nvidia graphics sddm fails if you use plasma5..plasma 5 isn't ready for regular use, it's very broken14:00

kubuntuplasma5BluesKaj: I'm using Intel gfx and I tried clean install from beta image; as for the crypto part I think it was broken even in trusty14:13

ScottyKHi! I'm running Kubuntu 13.04 with Libreoffice 4.2.4.2. How can I upgrade it to 4.3.1?20:54
=== clansman is now known as steel`afk
=== light is now known as Guest17180
valorieScottyK: 13.04?21:24
valorieI believe that is EOL21:24
valorie!eol21:24
ubottuEnd-Of-Life is the time when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades21:24
valorieyes, that is no longer supported21:25

ScottyKvalorie - correction, 14.04! UGH can't even type right, LOL21:35
valorieok, that certainly is supported!21:35
valorie!libreoffice21:36
ubottuLibreOffice is a Free and open source office suite that includes word processor, spreadsheet, presentation, vector drawing and database components. To install: "sudo apt-get install libreoffice". User help available in #libreoffice.21:36
valorieoh pfff21:36
valorie!info libreoffice21:36
ubottulibreoffice (source: libreoffice): office productivity suite (metapackage). In component universe, is optional. Version 1:4.2.4-0ubuntu2 (trusty), package size 26 kB, installed size 161 kB21:36
ScottyKSo it's best to wait for 14.10 for the latest libreoffice?21:36
valorieso that's the package; if you want newer you'll have to get it from elsewhere21:36
valorieI dunno what they have released; I imagine we package the newest available as long as it is stable21:37
ScottyKI'm not having any problems with 4.2.4.2, just thought it would be fun to grab the latest. But I can wait for 14.1021:38
valorieno guarantees, ScottyK - kubuntu packages KDE stuff21:40
valorielibreoffice is done by the ubuntu packagers -- MOTU probably21:41
valorieI assume it has a launchpad pad you can check out for progress21:41
valorieor ask in #libreoffice perhaps21:42
ScottyKsounds good. thanks!21:42
Unit193Utopic has the RC, ppa backports from there.  I'm pretty sure LO is in main, thus not MOTU.21:43
Unit193Erm, duh it's right there, in universe. :P21:43

alex_rocki got a problem with displaying the remaining battery time on my dell 7537 inspiron. GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="acpi_osi=Linux" fixes the problem. but now i had no wifi after suspend to ram23:11
alex_rock(standby)23:11
alex_rockonly a reboot fixes the problem...23:11
alex_rockto avoid this i removed the grub parameter23:11

rocket_nozzlevalorie: yes. i modified ~/.kde/share/config/plasma-desktop-appletsrc . there is now a empty space where the battery widget have to be, or was before..... after removing grub entry.23:21
valorieperhaps re-add it?23:23
rocket_nozzlevalorie: i have reconnet via wifi and have now another name  (was alex_rocket before)23:23

rocket_nozzlehehe23:25
rocket_nozzlehttp://i.imgur.com/MXbWNNs.png   the battery icon is displayed, when the mouse pointer is over the empty field23:26
valorieeven after re-adding via the plasma "cashew"?23:27
rocket_nozzlevalorie: but why was no battery symbol at beginning. Dont worry about the Debian button. Its kubuntu. changed the button, because i like debian23:27
valorieok23:28
rocket_nozzlecashew? what?23:28
valoriewell, it's possible to just trash your old plasma panel and instead add a new one23:28
valorieand see if that fixes it23:28
rocket_nozzleah ok. I backup my settings before. Which file is for the panel? PS where are u from? europe?23:30
valorieWashington state in the US23:30
valorieyou click the cashew at the end of the panel23:31
rocket_nozzleok23:31
valorieI see in your image that you have the battery icon on your desktop, rather than down in the panel23:31
valorieI think that's part of the problem23:31
valorieyou added it to the desktop23:31
valoriethe cashew is on the very end of the panel23:32
valorierather small and faint23:32
rocket_nozzleit is only shown when i go to the panels free space, where it have to be23:32
valorieI see it on your desktop23:32
