[03:43] <wachin> Hi ubuntustudio support, have a question, there is a way to make a shortcut to this channel to give clic on the desktop shortcut and activate this program automatically
[03:44] <holstein> wachin: o/
[03:44] <holstein> wachin: you can make a shortcut to the irc client you are using, and have it autojoin
[03:45] <wachin> go to search this option
[03:46] <wachin> ups, i don't find a way to make this
[03:47] <holstein> wachin: right click on the irc client. .make the shortcut
[03:47] <wachin> I use "XChat" program that come with UbuntuStudio
[03:47] <holstein> wachin: in the irc client, set it to auto join
[03:48] <holstein> http://xchat.org/faq/#q22 for example, or in the gui
[03:48] <vlt> holstein: Thank you so much.
[03:48] <holstein> it still looks a lot like this. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/XChatHowto#Settings_for_Networks
[03:49] <vlt> I just experienced the easiest getting to know a new program. A whole night with kdenlive and my movie is nearly done :-)
[03:50] <holstein> vlt: i seemed to get work done easier in kden.. but, sometimes, i need a few programs to get things done
[03:50] <vlt> (And only eight crashes so far.)
[03:52] <wachin> ok, fine
[06:13] <Arthur__> Hey
[06:13] <Arthur__> does anyones know how to check system info in ubuntu studio?
[06:14] <Arthur__> In my system tab in the application finder and on the main menu, there are no options
[06:14] <holstein> Arthur__: depends on what you want to know about what,but, you can use anything from xubuntu
[06:15] <holstein> you might want..
[06:15] <holstein> !info hardinfo
[06:15] <holstein> you can "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install hardinfo" in a terminal
[06:19] <Arthur__> thats exactly what I needed
[06:19] <Arthur__> thanks a lot
[09:20] <vlt> holstein: Haha ... I heavily used a "rendered stuff" track for my project and now I found the "proxy clips" feature :-D

[14:43] <wachin> I need a help. I am spanish parlant, at the first time run ubuntustudio 14.04 instalation I put the language on English. When I enter on my session, I see this folders:
[14:43] <wachin> "Documents, Downloads, Music, Pictures, Public, Templates, Videos"
[14:44] <cfhowlett> belalobo, can you get terminal in your account?
[14:44] <cfhowlett> belalobo, work with hedgework in #xubuntu.  I'll watch
[14:44] <belalobo> I'm logged into my account in the virtual terminal
[14:45] <wachin> I delete this folders to put: "
[14:45] <wachin> Descargas Documentos Escritorio Imágenes Música Plantillas Público Vídeos
[14:46] <wachin> "
[14:47] <wachin> how I can said to my system that the desktop are on the folder: "Escritorio" y no en "Home"
[14:47] <cfhowlett> !es | wachin
[14:56] <wachin> ubottu: My system not recognize this folders: 'Descargas Documentos Escritorio Imágenes Música Plantillas Público Vídeos' how own
[14:57] <cfhowlett> wachin, english only in this channel or use #ubuntu-es
[14:57] <wachin> my system when I first run create this folders:'Documents, Downloads, Music, Pictures, Public, Templates, Videos'
[14:58] <wachin> I delete all this folders
[14:58] <wachin> because I am a Spanish parlant
[14:58] <cfhowlett> wachin, why did you delete the folder?
[14:59] <wachin> was my mistake run my session on English
[15:00] <cfhowlett> wachin, you deleted the folders ... so?
[15:00] <wachin> because I not use this folders on english, I use this folders on spanish
[15:01] <cfhowlett> wachin, what is your goal
[15:02] <wachin> I am asking is if anyone knows how to tell the system recognizes other folders as their own, these:'Descargas Documentos Escritorio Imágenes Música Plantillas Público Vídeos'
[15:03] <wachin> because the default I delete all
[15:03] <ObrienDave> you want to switch the default folder names from english to spanish, yes?
[15:04] <wachin> I always use the UbuntuStudio on spanish, but the folders of the HOME was created on english because was my mistake run my session on English
[15:04] <wachin> Yes
[15:04] <wachin> :)
[15:05] <cfhowlett> wachin, change your language settings to spanish and make new folders.  OR change the language settings to spanish, make a new user and the folders will magically create
[15:07] <wachin> now my language settings are on spanish, but my system only recognize the mentionet folders on english
[15:08] <cfhowlett> wachin, make a new user.  switch accounts.  should be in spanish
[15:08] <wachin> Is very important to my that my system recognize the "Escritorio" folder how "Desktop" for all other things, like mount partitions on the desktop
[15:08] <wachin> no, I cant, I have many thinks here
[15:08] <wachin> mani configurations are here,
[15:08] <wachin> in this session
[15:09] <cfhowlett> wachin go to your /home        make new folders, name them as you like
[15:10] <wachin> I think there should be somewhere in the system must have the ability to change this setting, some file in the root system '/'
[15:10] <cfhowlett> wachin, ANY file you create under /home will be in your /home ...
[15:13] <wachin> wich ask you my is best that I do with a Live CD, with a live CD now I go to move all files and folders that I have on HOME, put then in other place and next go to my wachin session
[15:13] <wachin> See you later
[15:54] <velho> Huston, I have a problem!
[15:55] <velho> sudo add-apt-repository ppa:kxstudio-debian/kxstudio
[15:55] <velho> Cannot add PPA: 'ppa:kxstudio-debian/kxstudio'.
[15:55] <velho> Please check that the PPA name or format is correct.
[15:55] <holstein> !ppa
[15:55] <holstein> velho: i personally suggest *not* using ppa's, until you are confortable with the risk
[15:56] <holstein> https://launchpad.net/~kxstudio-debian/+archive/ubuntu/kxstudio is the ppa..
[15:56] <holstein> sudo add-apt-repository ppa:kxstudio-debian/kxstudio *should* be working..
[15:57] <holstein> velho: i just opened a terminal, and ran "sudo add-apt-repository ppa:kxstudio-debian/kxstudio" and it worked as expected
[15:58] <holstein> velho: i am on ubuntu 14.04
[15:58] <velho> holstein, I didn't know that adding PPAs was risky :o
[15:58] <holstein> velho: sure.. they are unsupported, 3rd party applications
[15:58] <velho> holstein, what harm can they make?
[15:59] <holstein> velho: literally *any* harm the creators of the packages want them to make, or accidentally make
[15:59] <holstein> velho: they are not ubuntu pacakges. we dont maintain them
[15:59] <holstein> velho: and, thats fine.. i literally just added that ppa ^ and i know and trust falk who makes them
[16:00] <cfhowlett> holstein, which is great but RARELY the case, yes?
[16:00] <holstein> velho: but, the question is, why are you no able to? and why are the directions at http://kxstudio.sourceforge.net/Repositories now working for you?
[16:00] <velho> holstein, I tried the command again, i get the same lines I posted before
[16:00] <holstein> cfhowlett: ppa's typically *always* break for me on some level
[16:01] <holstein> being unmaintained, or abandoned.. or, just after years, not working with my installation..
[16:01] <holstein> i mean, i add them.. but, i know the risks.. and i realize where the burden of support is
[16:02] <velho> holstein, so you don't advise to install KXStudio PPAs with UbuntuStudio? Have you run into any problems?
[16:02] <holstein> velho: as i said, i know, and trust falk who creates and maintains the kxstudio ppas
[16:03] <holstein> velho: i literally ran the command falk gave at http://kxstudio.sourceforge.net/Repositories and the ppa added, no problem
[16:04] <holstein> velho: the kxstudio ppa is *large*, and adds a lot of system files.. that is not bad or good.. its just something that you need to be aware of, and know that, you are not using ubuntu anymore at that point
[16:05] <holstein> velho: *if* you understand the risks, and want to add the sources, open the terminal, and input "sudo add-apt-repository ppa:kxstudio-debian/kxstudio" and share the *entire* error output..
[16:05] <holstein> !paste
[16:05] <cfhowlett> adding the ppa works for me ... http://ur1.ca/izble
[16:12] <velho> holstein, I would like to know more about the actual risks of adding kxstudio repos. I was advised to install kxstudio repos in ubuntustudio, to get the best of both worlds. So, I don't understand the risks, because I don't know it there are any, but I would love to read about what risks I may encounter by adding the kxstudio repos
[16:15] <velho> holstein, cfhowlett the command works now! I did nothing different, except typing "clear" in the terminal. O well, the command is working now and that's what matters
[16:15] <cfhowlett> velho, :0
[16:18] <velho> cfhowlett, sometimes I really feel stupid using the command line. I need to get more used to it :)
[16:19] <cfhowlett> velho, I'd strongly encourage that lll
[16:21] <velho> cfhowlett, lll?
[16:22] <cfhowlett> velho, ...        I've worn the nubs off my keypad so my fingers sometimes travel
[16:22] <cfhowlett> :)
[16:22] <velho> cfhowlett, haha! traveling fingers :)
[16:23] <velho> SO, what are the risks of installing KXStudio? I've googled about it, but found nothing relevant...
[16:23] <velho> let me rephrase that...
[16:23] <velho> Wwhat are the risks of installing KXStudio PPAs in UbuntuStudio? I've googled about it, but found nothing relevant...
[16:25] <ObrienDave> basically, you run the risk of the PPA not being maintained, installed packages breaking your system, and not being an official package, not receiving any support here if it does bork your system
[16:26] <ObrienDave> in other words, you're on your own with a PPA
[20:51] <velho> Well, I've been reading a lot about PPAs, and I found anything wrong about installing KXStudio PPAs on UbuntuStudio. I've read that PPAs can be risky, but these are KXStudio PPAs, aren't they stable?
[21:52] <delt> power failure :/
[21:52] <delt> anyway, back online.....
[21:53] <delt> and this happened exactly when i was configuring network stuff.... had to call ISP to make sure everything was OK on their side, before remembering some scrpit that i wrote on my server which checks connection once per hour, and tries to bring it up if it's not.....
[22:27] <Ivan1022> hey guys
