[00:29] <[Relic]> in 17.10 what are my options for try to block a program from accessing the internet completely?
[02:55] <valorie> [Relic]: which application?
[03:08] <[Relic]> valorie, wasn't thinking too specifically, was looking at gufw but couldn't figure out how to block anything but what was on the list itself
[03:09] <valorie> I think you'd do it for certain apps
[03:09] <valorie> I mean, most don't go online
[03:10] <valorie> browsers do
[03:10] <valorie> amarok does
[03:10] <valorie> ktorrent, konversation do
[03:11] <valorie> amarok still works if there is no connection
[03:17] <[Relic]> amarok was replaced, I was just trying to see if there was a way to do it, I never know how out dated some of the documentation is, and I don't like screwing things up too badly
[07:10] <lordievader> Good morning
[11:54] <BluesKaj> Hiyas all
 @BluesKaj, hi
[15:12] <BluesKaj> hi ajyotirmay
[16:09] <qwip> I have recently installed kubuntu but the fonts don't look good. fonts are looking really thin
[16:12] <BluesKaj> qwip dpi settingsin system settings> fonts or choose a bolder font style
[16:13] <qwip> BluesKaj, "Force fonts DPI"?
[16:14] <qwip> and what is "Fixed width"?
[16:14] <BluesKaj> qwip, try a different font style first
[16:15] <qwip> tried that. BluesKaj. no good
[16:15] <BluesKaj> fixed width is mainly for graphical fonts in guis and browsers that aren't as configurable
[16:16] <BluesKaj> increase the dpi then
[16:17] <qwip> to how much?
[16:18] <qwip> also, the fonts look almost good in system apps but looks really thin in other apps like spotify, firefox
[16:18] <BluesKaj> dunno, depends on your taste and what you think , looks good to you ..experiment with different fonts, fontstyles, and sizes
[16:20] <BluesKaj> qwip FF requires the font setting in Application Style>gnome\>app style ,since it bases it's fonts on gnome
[16:21] <qwip> BluesKaj, ok
[16:43] <qwip> BluesKaj, in Application Style>gnome\>app style  font is set to Noto Sans but in firefox it shows DejaVu Serif
[16:44] <qwip> as the default font
[16:45] <BluesKaj> qwip, which do you prefer ..personally i don't use FF anymore
[16:45] <qwip> I just use FF!
[16:45] <BluesKaj> you can change it in FF if you want
[16:45] <qwip> hmm
[16:47] <BluesKaj> if you have complaints don't do it here, complain in kubuntu-devel or kde chats
[16:48] <qwip> ohh, okay. didn't knew about that chans
[16:49] <BluesKaj> we're just support volunteers, we're not responsible for settings and bugs
[16:49] <qwip> ahh, okay. I got it
[16:49] <qwip> Thanks for your help :)
[16:49] <BluesKaj> ok
[16:50] <BluesKaj> time to push some snow ...BBL
[17:34] <TBotNik> All: 2 quick Qs! Q#1: I use Gedit, with plugins for dev with the "Cobalt" color scheme. In an HTML file "&nbsp;" and "&amp: are in dark blue and not really viewable. How do I change that color, say to yellow, so I can see all my code?  Q#2: Samba is not letting me login to my own local shares nor on remote machine.  What do I change in the smb.cnf config file to get logins to work?
[17:38] <TBotNik> All: For Q#1 I found and have the /usr/share/gtksourceview-3.0/styles/cobalt.xml file open in NANO, but do not know which Item defines these items. Have defired a new color of: "<color name="bright_yellow"               value="#9d9d50"/>" that I want to apply, but again don't know which element!
[18:17] <BluesKaj> TBotNik, this is Kubuintu support, not Ubuntu, your GTK questions will receive answers there , more likely than here
[18:57] <TBotNik> BluesKaj: So far ##linux and #ubuntu no response on the GTK! Is there a better source?
[18:58] <BluesKaj> TBotNik, what's you desktop?
[18:58] <BluesKaj> your
[19:01] <TBotNik> BluesKaj: On Kubuntu 14.04 LTS
[19:01] <TBotNik> Plasma
[19:02] <BluesKaj> so why the gtk questions?
[19:04] <TBotNik> BluesKaj: I do all my dev in Gedit with the plugins, but cannot see the "&nbsp;" or "&amp;" tags, since they are the  same color as the  background, in the Cobalt theme.  Want to see them in yellow!
[19:06] <BluesKaj> why gedit , why not kate?
[19:06] <BluesKaj> or kwrite
[19:07] <TBotNik> BluesKaj: Been on Gedit for 15 years now, and don't like the others! Sorry!
[19:08]  * BluesKaj shrugs , maybe it's time for a change :-)
[19:08] <BluesKaj> you got an answer in ubuntu
[19:09] <TBotNik> BluesKaj: The GTK cobalt theme give me most of the contrast I need for editing where the others do not.  I occasionally use NetBeans, but Gedit is my default, as I know all the functions, etc. so nothing new to learn!
[19:09] <BluesKaj> oops linux
[19:11] <TBotNik> BluesKaj: Yeah, he's saying copy to $HOME and edit there, but still do not know what I'm lookiing for!
[19:18] <TBotNik> BluesKaj: OK found this site: github.com/mig/gedit-themes and downloading the .zip. Will see if they have a theme I like or the style element defined that I'm looking for so I can add to my current theme and customize!
[19:30] <BluesKaj> TBotNik, hope it works for you.
[19:32] <TBotNik> BluesKaj: There are enough themes there I should be able to find what element I'm looking for!
[19:33] <TBotNik> BluesKaj: I'll run a content find, once installed on "html" in that dir, and should find it!
[19:33] <BluesKaj> ok
[19:38] <TBotNik> BluesKaj: Thnx!
[22:17] <Guest44112> I just installed kubuntu and it seems to have set the date/time and calendar language to my local language (arabic) but I chose English (US) during install. Other's seem to also have this problem and I found no solution searching online.
[22:32] <kaddi> hi, i'm using kubuntu 17.10 are there any integration packages for firefox I need to manually install to make FF read kde settings correctly? FF seems to think my default texteditor is okular (when it's really kate) and I can't seem to make it understand that's wrong
[22:36] <BoronBiggs> I just installed kubuntu and it seems to have set the date/time and calendar language to my local language (arabic) but I chose English (US) during install. Other's seem to also have this problem and I found no solution searching online.
[22:38] <valorie> !locale
[22:38] <valorie> BoronBiggs: ^^^
[22:46] <BoronBiggs> valorie: It does work to change the language in the calendar, but doesn't change the language of the clock on the login screen
[22:47] <valorie> hmmm
[22:47] <valorie> I suggest asking in #kde, since nobody has spoken up here
[22:48] <valorie> mention that you adjusted or at least checked your locale
[22:49] <BoronBiggs> Ok, nvm, I managed to fix it by editing all locales in /etc/default/locale to en_US
[22:50] <BoronBiggs> but to be noted, localepurge didn't work to change these and left these locales intact
[22:51] <valorie> glad you found the fix
[22:52] <valorie> dunno what localepurge is
