| TheFakeazneD525 | valorie: I have fglrx installed, but amdcccle won't pick it up | 06:29 |
| TheFakeazneD525 | wat do | 06:29 |
| valorie | woah, it's been a long time since I had to mess with that | 06:30 |
| valorie | !fglrx | 06:30 |
| ubottu | For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VideoDriverHowto | 06:30 |
| valorie | those help pages are usually really helpful | 06:30 |
| TheFakeazneD525 | valorie: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8438361/ | 06:33 |
| valorie | I think you are asking the wrong person, but I'll look..... | 06:34 |
| valorie | TheFakeazneD525: have you tried Driver Manager? | 06:36 |
| valorie | just alt+f2 | 06:36 |
| TheFakeazneD525 | I _only_ use Driver Manager | 06:36 |
| valorie | driver | 06:36 |
| valorie | ah, OK | 06:36 |
| valorie | but the settings aren't sticking/aren't being seen? | 06:36 |
| TheFakeazneD525 | and it says "Using video driver from fglrx-updates" | 06:36 |
| valorie | :( | 06:37 |
| TheFakeazneD525 | Hmm, wait | 06:37 |
| valorie | I have broadcom now | 06:37 |
| valorie | and there is a driver for it that Just Works | 06:38 |
| TheFakeazneD525 | alright thats weird | 06:38 |
| TheFakeazneD525 | The processor isn't overheating now when I play Red Eclipse... | 06:38 |
| TheFakeazneD525 | a few moments earlier it was at 87.0C~ | 06:38 |
| valorie | strange | 06:39 |
| TheFakeazneD525 | yet, amdcccle still won't load | 06:39 |
| TheFakeazneD525 | and, its not in the path either | 06:39 |
| TheFakeazneD525 | a few days ago it vanished from my applications launcher menu | 06:39 |
| TheFakeazneD525 | and it's heating up again... | 06:41 |
| valorie | I guess it's called `fglrx-amdcccle` | 06:41 |
| valorie | near the bottom of that linked page that's discussed a bit | 06:41 |
| TheFakeazneD525 | modprobe: FATAL: Module fgrlx not found. | 06:45 |
| valorie | ! | 06:45 |
| TheFakeazneD525 | Its using the "radeon" module | 06:45 |
| TheFakeazneD525 | maybe its because of a new kernel? | 06:46 |
| valorie | the default, I believe | 06:46 |
| valorie | that could be | 06:46 |
| valorie | you might have to re-do | 06:47 |
| TheFakeazneD525 | how | 06:47 |
| valorie | look at the linked page.... | 06:47 |
| valorie | I mean, somehow you installed fglrx? | 06:47 |
| TheFakeazneD525 | One of the first things I did was install fglrx | 06:48 |
| TheFakeazneD525 | on this computer | 06:48 |
| valorie | so do it again | 06:48 |
| TheFakeazneD525 | um... | 06:49 |
| TheFakeazneD525 | in /etc/X11 there's supposed to be an "xorg.conf" right? | 06:49 |
| TheFakeazneD525 | valorie: I think I don't have an xorg.conf | 06:50 |
| valorie | you have to create it, these days | 06:51 |
| valorie | it is deprecated | 06:51 |
| TheFakeazneD525 | what should I do? | 06:51 |
| valorie | please look at the page I linked for you; the writers are the experts | 06:53 |
| valorie | I've not done any of this stuff for years | 06:53 |
| valorie | !fglrx | 06:53 |
| valorie | !fgrlx | 06:53 |
| valorie | sheesh | 06:53 |
| valorie | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VideoDriverHowto | 06:54 |
| TheFakeazneD525 | Alright, I'll reinstall the things according to tha page | 06:55 |
| valorie | ....assuming just re-installing didn't work | 06:56 |
| valorie | of course try that first | 06:56 |
| TheFakeazneD525 | brb reboot | 06:57 |
| TheFakeazneD525 | alright, now it's installing the fglrx and fglrx-amdccccccccle | 07:01 |
| valorie | excellent | 07:04 |
| TheFakeazneD525 | \o/ | 07:18 |
| TheFakeazneD525 | it loaded the fglrx module | 07:18 |
| valorie | excellent! | 07:18 |
| valorie | chalk that up to the great writers of the help pages | 07:19 |
| TheFakeazneD525 | now I need to test if redeclipse runs smoothly | 07:19 |
| valorie | I'm guess that's a game | 07:19 |
| TheFakeazneD525 | Ya | 07:20 |
| TheFakeazneD525 | its in the official repos :3 | 07:20 |
| TheFakeazneD525 | say valorie, where could I find a binary of vokoscreen built with ffmpeg instead of libav? | 07:21 |
| valorie | is this a test? | 07:25 |
| valorie | I know what ffmpeg are, and libav | 07:25 |
| valorie | no idea about vokoscreen | 07:26 |
| TheFakeazneD525 | frontend to ffmpeg/libav to record the desktop | 07:27 |
| TheFakeazneD525 | I installed a ppa to give me ffmpeg instead of libav, and that broke vokoscreen | 07:27 |
| valorie | ah | 07:30 |
| valorie | you probably will have to try to build it from source | 07:30 |
| valorie | front end probably won't take you long | 07:31 |
| valorie | although if it's really important to you, you might be able to find an old deb over on the debian repos | 07:32 |
| lordievader | Good morning. | 07:56 |
| TheFakeazneD525 | morning | 07:56 |
| TheFakeazneD525 | lordievader: I have a question | 07:56 |
| lordievader | Hey TheFakeazneD525, how are you? | 07:57 |
| TheFakeazneD525 | so I have wine installed, and I want swf files to play with a windows standalone flashplayer | 07:57 |
| TheFakeazneD525 | should I make the file association such that it executes wine /path/to/flashplayer ? | 07:57 |
| TheFakeazneD525 | also I'm good, you? | 07:57 |
| lordievader | No idea, I dislike Wine quite a bit. | 07:58 |
| lordievader | But I am doing good though ;) | 07:58 |
| lordievader | Besides Linux has stand alone flash players. | 07:59 |
| TheFakeazneD525 | they're very alpha-stage though :c | 08:02 |
| lordievader | Gnash is allright IIRC. | 08:03 |
| lordievader | Better than using Wine, but then again, anything is... | 08:03 |
| Fyr | guys! why does kubuntu 14.10 KDE 5 not run in VirtualBox? | 08:50 |
| Fyr | some errors prevent it from running. =( | 08:51 |
| lordievader | I've heard of other reports where it was trouble some, please ask around in #kubuntu-devel Fyr | 08:54 |
| valorie | !virtual | 08:58 |
| ubottu | There are several solutions for running other operating systems (or their programs) inside Ubuntu, while using the native CPU as much as possible: !QEmu (with !KQemu), !VirtualBox, !VMWare, as well as !WINE and !Cedega for Windows applications | 08:58 |
| lordievader | !kqemu | 08:59 |
| ubottu | kqemu is a kernel module (now free under the GPL license) for speeding up the !QEMU virtual machine. Installation instructions can be found at http://help.ubuntu.com/community/KQEmu | 08:59 |
| valorie | oh that's interesting | 08:59 |
| lordievader | "If your CPU supports VT or you have access to hardware that supports VT, you have no need for kqemu", ah never mind then... | 09:01 |
| TheFakeazneD525 | !Cedega | 09:05 |
| ubottu | cedega is a project based on WINE, aimed at running Windows games on Linux. For more info, see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/Cedega | 09:05 |

| andersl | I find it very difficult to use kubuntu software system. I desperately try to get a up to date version of digikam, which should be available in something like "phillips ppa". I thought I added that to the software thingy, but I STILL have only an outdated digikam version. | 16:07 |
| andersl | Is it possible to somehow get a up to date application without having to compile it from source? | 16:07 |
| luc4 | you mean 4.3.0? | 16:08 |
| luc4 | andersl: I installed it without issues. Try with this: http://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2014/09/digikam-4-3-install-in-ubuntu-1404/. | 16:10 |
| andersl | luc4: 4.3.0 is outdated. The current version is 4.5, and due to the huge amount of bugs in the 4.x series, updating is crusial | 16:11 |
| andersl | 4.3 is horrible | 16:11 |
| luc4 | andersl: that seems to be a development version | 16:14 |
| luc4 | andersl: I built 4.4 last week or so. What makes you think it is in that ppa? | 16:15 |

| skinux | How do we tell KDE to show icons on the desktop? | 16:55 |
| Krixvar | skinux: what kind of icons? | 16:58 |
| skinux | Desktop icons | 16:58 |
| skinux | All there is, is a blue background and "Desktop" link in top right. | 16:58 |
| skinux | Every other desktop environment has desktop shortcuts, why not KDE by default? | 16:59 |
| veqz | I guess it felt more clean that way? Also, it is possible to use several Folder widgets at the same time to show different folders | 17:00 |
| veqz | anyways, to get the desktop shortcuts: | 17:00 |
| veqz | right-click on desktop -> Default Desktop Settings | 17:01 |
| veqz | switch Layout from "Default Desktop" to "Folder" | 17:01 |
| veqz | click OK | 17:01 |
| skinux | Woah! Just looking at my CPU usage. Both cores are near 100%, RAM 86% and SWAP at 23%. Doesn't look good at all. | 17:02 |
| veqz | what are you running? | 17:02 |
| skinux | What do you mean? | 17:02 |
| veqz | to run two cores at ~100% :) | 17:03 |
| skinux | Chrome, Firefox, Terminal, Sublime Text, and HexChat. In system tray: Skype, Weather, System monitor, DropBox | 17:03 |
| veqz | huh. strange. that's close to what I'm running atm, and everything seems calm here | 17:04 |
| veqz | did you get your desktop icons btw? | 17:04 |
| skinux | Chrome/tabs/extensions are using 958,044 memory | 17:06 |
| skinux | Yes, thank you. | 17:07 |
| veqz | haha ok :) | 17:07 |
| === sarah is now known as Guest76712 | ||
| veqz | I'm usually using Opear with 40+ tabs myself, but I just cleaned up, and am down to a measely 4 open tabs atm | 17:08 |
| Guest76712 | what is best chat for help with linux? Have some questions on permissions | 17:08 |
| skinux | How do you even have the space for 40 tabs? How do you need so many tabs anyway??? | 17:08 |
| skinux | #linux | 17:08 |
| skinux | Guest76712: Your client probably has a channel list feature. | 17:09 |
| skinux | Unless you use a web-based client, in which case probably not. | 17:09 |
| veqz | the tabs get rather tiny, but the rightmost tabs are usually about what I'm currently working on, and further to the left are tabs for projects I'm not working on right at this moment, but which I keep open to remind myself of what I was doing :P | 17:10 |
| * skinux I've wanted to contribute such features to web-based IRC projects. Too bad I've never thought I had the time. | 17:10 | |
| skinux | veqz: Why not just bookmark stuff you're not actively using? | 17:11 |
| skinux | I wish there were a some kind of website to compare various usages with that of others to determine where usage could be cut-back. | 17:11 |
| veqz | cause then it feels like I've "concluded" some task. if I keep the tabs open, they're still in my "working memory", so to say | 17:12 |
| skinux | That makes sense. | 17:21 |
| skinux | If I keep too many tabs open, I try to do everything at once and end up getting nothing done. | 17:22 |

| TheFakeazneD525 | if not all | 18:05 |
| TheFakeazneD525 | and unload KRunner plugins | 18:05 |
| mackie | Oh. That sounds like a good idea. Do I need to do all that manually, or is there a straightforward way to go about it? | 18:06 |
| TheFakeazneD525 | er, there are probably guides online... | 18:06 |
| TheFakeazneD525 | I have to go, but maybe someone else can help | 18:06 |
