| [00:02] <Schrodinger`Cat> hey | |
| [00:02] <Schrodinger`Cat> i have a problem | |
| [00:02] <Schrodinger`Cat> for to do working skype, i remove pulseaudio | |
| [00:03] <Schrodinger`Cat> is that bad ? | |
| [00:03] <Schrodinger`Cat> now i dont have sound except with skype :/ | |
| [00:05] <cynical> well that's bad :P | |
| [00:07] <cynical> with skype if you can change the audio settings to use the alsa plugin instead of straight pulseaudio that may fix it | |
| [00:07] <Schrodinger`Cat> cynical: so i must put it back ? | |
| [00:07] <Schrodinger`Cat> the pulseaudio | |
| [00:07] <Schrodinger`Cat> i made $ apt-get remove pulseaudio | |
| [00:07] <cynical> well you could use alsa for everything instead, but you would lose the benefits of pulseaudio. Imo it's better to see if you can get skype working well with pulse instead | |
| [00:08] <Schrodinger`Cat> $ apt-get install pulseausio -> its ok ? | |
| [00:08] <cynical> yes | |
| [00:08] <Schrodinger`Cat> ill try :) | |
| [00:08] <Geowany> my pulseaudio is working so fine | |

| [06:59] <eak> i have read articles about it, and it seems to be a bug issue for the network manager for kubuntu. Is this issue still not solved? | |

| [09:05] <Hydroxide> Hi. On Kubuntu LTS precise, what's the right keyboard layout to select in System Settings for a Lenovo Thinkpad X220? | |
| [09:06] <Hydroxide> (US keyboard layout) | |
| [09:16] <lordievader> Hydroxide: Try a few out, i'd say. But it is probably somewhere along the lines of us/international. | |
| [09:32] <Hydroxide> lordievader: it wouldn't be one of the thinkpad settings? | |
| [09:33] <Hydroxide> lordievader: none of them list any of the X models specifically | |
| [09:33] <Hydroxide> lordievader: right now I'm using the default generic US one | |
| [09:33] <lordievader> Hydroxide: Do all the keys work with that setup? | |
| [09:34] <Hydroxide> lordievader: haven't checked every single one, so I dunno | |
| [09:34] <lordievader> Hydroxide: My laptop also uses the same one. | |
| [09:35] <Hydroxide> lordievader: if the answer is "just test the keys", I can do testing. I was hoping someone would know how to pick the right existing layout. KDE doesn't automagically detect which layout to use | |
| [09:35] <Hydroxide> I mean, the generic ones usually work, but it's always nice to map the special keys to the right keysyms to get the right functionality by default | |
| [09:36] <lordievader> Hydroxide: Agreed. | |
| [09:41] <Hydroxide> lordievader: apparently some underlying magic is doing most of the mappings on my computer... I just stared at some of them via xev | |
| [09:41] <Hydroxide> and broke my wireless in the process until I logged out and back in, but ok :) | |

| [11:35] <lordievader> steve723: Can a triple E pc even have more that 3GB ram? Well anyhow I'd say stick with 32-bit. Your cpu does support 64-bit but you won't really notice the difference. | |

| [11:53] <rvb_> hello, is it possible to emulate a printer in linux? | |
| [11:53] <AceKing> I just tried reinstalling 12.04 to see if there was a glitch in the first install. When I go start into LiveCD, my screen is split into 3 sections and I can't read it. I know it's the video card which is a Nvidia GeForce Go 7150m. Any ideas how I can make this work? | |
| [11:53] <rvb_> like for example i dont have an HP printer here, but using the emulator i can "print" using the said printer | |
| [11:59] <BluesKaj> AceKing, the nvidia card should work fine , are you sure the livecd isn't corrupted. If so do an md5sum on the iso file , or choose the alternate install version | |
| [12:03] <c0nn> where is the panel configuration file please? | |
| [12:03] <BluesKaj> biab ...gotta reboot | |
| === spawn57 is now known as spawn[dead] | |
| [12:07] <c0nn> I am trying customize the KDE panel for all users , Such as changing "K" icon adding wideget etc | |
| [12:07] <AceKing> BluesKaj: I just downloaded it again, and going to try | |
| [12:11] <AceKing> BluesKaj: Still doing the same thing. It splits the screen in 3, and I can't see anything. If I F6 and check nomodeset I can start into LiveCD. That is how I did the install before. But once it installed, it froze whenever I logged in. | |
| [12:17] <AceKing> BluesKaj: What else could be causing that? | |
| [12:55] <BluesKaj> !alternate | AceKing | |
| [12:55] <ubottu> AceKing: The Alternate CD is a classical text-mode install CD. It supports a wider range of hardware than the !LiveCD, and can also be used as an upgrade CD. Look for the alternate checkbox on the Kubuntu download page - See also !minimal | |
| [12:58] <AceKing> BluesKaj: OK, thanks. I also did an edit in the grub menu, and changed quiet splash to nomodeset and I was able to boot up into the desktop with everything working perfect. Will that remain that way, or will I have to set that everytime? | |
| [13:03] <ADmad> howdy, anybody around who can update content on http://www.kubuntu.org/ ? | |
| [13:05] <BluesKaj> AceKing, your edits should stick , at least until the next grub or kernsl upgrade | |
| [13:06] <BluesKaj> kernel | |
| [13:07] <tsimpson> ADmad: what exactly needs updating? | |
| [13:07] <AceKing> BluesKaj: OK.. I ran additional drivers, and seen the Nvidia drivers available. If I activate it, would it just do the same thing that was happening before? | |
| [13:08] <ADmad> tsimpson: its pretty trivial, on http://www.kubuntu.org/news/kde-plasma-workspaces-applications-and-platform-491 the url to "KDE SC 4.9.1" has an extra " at the end | |
| [13:08] <BluesKaj> AceKing, it shouldn't | |

| [13:08] <BluesKaj> AceKing, heh, seems you helped yourself :) | |

| [13:09] <ADmad> thx | |
| [13:11] <BluesKaj> AceKing, I didn't realize you were talking about an existing OS install , for some reason I thought you were trying to install with the live cd. hence my suggestion about the alternate | |
| [13:11] <AceKing> BluesKaj: Just to let you know, I installed the latest Nvidia driver, restarted, and it works perfect! | |

| [13:17] <Roey> hey there BluesKaj | |
| [13:17] <BluesKaj> hi Roey | |
| [13:27] <baxeico> hi guys, just to ask if bug 306260 - KWin freezes when navigating between windows is fixed in Kubuntu's KDE SC 4.9.1 packages (12.04 backports) | |
| [13:27] <ubottu> Launchpad bug 353984 in smtpguard (Ubuntu) "duplicate for #306260 package smtpguard 1.1.3-2 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess pre-removal script returned error exit status 1" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/353984 | |
| [13:29] <tsimpson> baxeico: it says it'll be fixed in 4.9.2 | |
| [13:30] <tsimpson> I'll see if we have a patch though | |
| [13:30] <baxeico> tsimpson: yes, in KDE SC 4.9.2. But here http://blog.martin-graesslin.com/blog/2012/09/this-week-in-kwin-2012-week-36/ mgrasslin says that he solved the bug very quickly after 4.9.1 release | |
| [13:31] <baxeico> and packagers should have patched it. | |
| [13:31] <baxeico> ok, thank you | |
| [13:36] <tsimpson> baxeico: looks like we do have that patch, yes | |
| [13:37] <baxeico> out of curiosity, where I can found patches applied by Kubuntu packagers to a vanilla KDE SC? | |
| [13:40] <tsimpson> baxeico: we use Launchpad code hosting for the packaging, kwin is part of kde-workspace so https://code.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kde-workspace the active development link is the current one, and that points to https://code.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-branches/ubuntu/quantal/kde-workspace/quantal | |
| [13:41] <baxeico> tsimpson: thank you very much! | |

| [19:06] <Hofman> ? | |
| [19:08] <Hofman> It disappeared from 'Start' menu after my attempt of upgrading KDE | |
| [19:09] <Hofman> Is there anyone? | |
| [19:12] <Hofman> Where may I ask for help? | |
| [19:26] <DarthFrog> I note that KDE 4.9.1 is now available. | |
| [19:27] <DarthFrog> Hofman: Neon? Or Muon? | |
| [19:28] <Hofman> DarthFrog: if Iremember correctly Neon Updater | |
| [19:28] <DarthFrog> At a guess, perhaps it was replaced by a different package manager. | |
| [19:29] <DarthFrog> Hofman: try this. Press Alt-F2 and type "muon". | |
| [19:30] <theadmin> Hi. I'm having trouble with ALSA (no Pulse), specifically, ALSA doesn't react to unplugging headphones, and I only get sound in those | |
| [19:30] <Hofman> DarthFrog: nothing happens | |
| [19:31] <DarthFrog> Hofman: Open up a command terminal and type (all on one line): sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install muon | |
| [19:34] <Hofman> DarthFrog: yes, it installed! | |
| [19:34] <DarthFrog> Hofman: Now you should have a package manager available in the K Menu. | |
| [19:34] <DarthFrog> Is it what you were thinking as neon? | |
| [19:34] <Hofman> DarthFrog: yes, I have | |
| [19:35] <Hofman> DarthFrog: yes | |
| [19:35] <DarthFrog> I thought so. :-) | |
| [19:36] <DarthFrog> Hofman: Now go forth, do good, fight evil and enjoy ice cream. | |
| [19:36] <Hofman> DarthFrog: I tryed to upgade my KDE-packages and during that muon disappeared | |
| [19:37] <Hofman> DarthFrog: now I'll try once more | |
| [19:37] <DarthFrog> Well, I'm updating KDE right now (to 4.9.1). I'll see if that happens to me. Not that I care, mind you. :-) | |
| [19:38] <DarthFrog> Nope, muon is still installed. :-) | |
| [19:39] <Hofman> DarthFrog: the screen became dark (only mouse trigger and skype pop-ups was on it) | |
| [19:41] <Hofman> and where is official Kubuntu support? is it on Kubuntu forums? | |
| [19:41] <DarthFrog> Official support is from Canonical and will cost you. | |
| [19:41] <Hofman> and community support? | |
| [19:42] <DarthFrog> Mind you, Canonical is downgrading their interest in Kubuntu and off-loading support onto the community. | |
| [19:42] <DarthFrog> Well, here is one place. There will be forums, also. | |
| [19:42] <DarthFrog> !support | |
| [19:42] <ubottu> The official Kubuntu support channel is #kubuntu. Also see http://www.kubuntu.com/support.php | |
| [19:45] <Hofman> Canonical doesn't like KDE? | |
| [19:45] <DarthFrog> That's not the issue. | |
| [19:46] <DarthFrog> It's devoting it's resources to Ubuntu. | |
| [19:47] <DarthFrog> its resources, sorry, not it's resources. | |
| [19:47] <Hofman> but I thought that it's the same (the only difference is in default DE) | |
| [19:48] <DarthFrog> Correct. | |
| [19:49] <DarthFrog> It's just that you can no longer get paid, official support from Canonical (or CDs) for it. | |
| [19:49] <DarthFrog> Ubuntu, Unity, Project Ayatana is where the resources are allocated. | |
| [19:50] <DarthFrog> Kubuntu enjoys the same status as the other Ubuntu derivatives such as Xubuntu & Lubuntu. | |
| [19:59] <dougl> you mean you can pay for support for kubuntu? | |
| [19:59] <dougl> err - or could have? | |
| [20:00] <DarthFrog> dougl: I believe so. Riddell is/was a Canonical employee. | |
| [20:00] <DarthFrog> Blue Systems has taken over patronage of the Kubuntu Project. | |
| [20:00] <dougl> that is a nice option to have. | |

| [22:08] <Num83rGuy> OerHeks: Yes, and all seems to work but, I don't get any signal so I will see if it is due to other parts of my network. Thanks. | |
| [22:09] <OerHeks> Sorry to hear that. I never experienced that. | |
| [22:11] <Roey> dougl: hiu | |
| [22:11] <Roey> *hi ho | |
| [22:13] <slowz> This isnt #windows, Reboots solve nothing. after you install a module. "sudo modprobe ath5k" in this case. reboots are for kernel upgrades... | |
| [22:13] <Num83rGuy> OerHeks: Offhand, do you know what 802.11 revision (a, b, g, n,) that card supports? | |
| [22:14] <OerHeks> Num83rGuy, if i remember correct 802.11b 11 mbit | |
| [22:16] <Num83rGuy> OerHeks: Thank you. | |

| [22:28] <pem__> Hi guys, just trying Konversation (a new switcher to kubuntu). | |
| [22:30] <pem__> Anyone succeed in using a MAPI Exchange client with kmail | |
| [22:54] <Num83rGuy> OerHeks: Hello again. I ran ifconfig -a to get more info on the card and the MAC address is all 0's (wifi0 Link encap:UNSPEC HWaddr 00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00) Is this normal? | |
| [22:55] <OerHeks> No. check your bios, maybe you can set a mac adress. | |
| [22:56] <OerHeks> else set it in networkmanager | |
| [22:56] <Num83rGuy> OerHeks: OK. if I can. | |
| [22:56] <OerHeks> In networkmanager should do fine, 3th TAB | |
| [22:57] <OerHeks> *edit network connection, then 3th tab | |
| [23:01] <faLUCE> hi. I'm pretty sure that the os mounts an usb 2.0 device as an usb 1.0 one. It's an usb camera. How can I check that, before trying to solve? | |
| [23:03] <phil> anybody knows how to upgrade chromium in Kubuntu ? | |
| [23:09] <OerHeks> phil use " lsusb -v " and look for bcdUSB value | |
| [23:09] <OerHeks> faLUCE, ^ ( sorry phil) | |
| [23:12] <phil_> OerHeks: that's ok | |
| [23:12] <faLUCE> OerHeks: I see both 1.0 and 2.0. The problem is that I have 4 phisical ports on my laptop and I don't know how to check which one works as 2.0. apparently, non of them does that | |
| [23:14] <DarthFrog> faLUCE: Plug a USB 2.0 device into one of them and do the lsusb -v scan again. | |

| [23:20] <OerHeks> phil, chromium is @ v18 , there used to be a ppa, discontinued now. somehow the packaging is behind chrome, wich is @ v21 | |
| [23:24] <faLUCE> Deathvalley122: OerHeks, I see bcdUSB 2.00 | |
| [23:25] <faLUCE> but I'm pretty sure it works as 1.0, since I can't go over 12 mbps | |
| [23:25] <OerHeks> faLUCE, is it a webcam ? | |
| [23:26] <DarthFrog> faLUCE: Next time you reboot, check your BIOS is set for fullspeed USB 2.0. | |
| [23:26] <faLUCE> DarthFrog: I don't have this option in bios | |
| [23:26] <DarthFrog> 12 mbps falls within the USB 2.0 spec. | |
| [23:26] <OerHeks> most webcams up to 1.3 mpixel just need usb 1.1 ( more than enough bandwith | |
| [23:26] <faLUCE> OerHeks: yes, it's a webcam | |
| [23:27] <faLUCE> OerHeks: the problem occurs when I plug two webcams. I can only open one per time, ore two at a low res | |
| [23:29] <faLUCE> there's clearly a problem | |
| [23:29] <eros> hi | |
| [23:29] <GH0> What is the proper way to mount an external hard drive so anyone can read/write to it? | |
| [23:29] <GH0> As of right now, the auto-mount feature is broken. | |
| [23:30] <GH0> I am aware I could mount, and then chown, but there would have to be an easier way to do this. | |
| [23:31] <OerHeks> faLUCE, not sure what causes that behaviour. | |
| [23:31] <GH0> If I add it to fstab, and it can't find the drive, I don't want some unexpected issues to come up. | |
| [23:32] <OerHeks> GH0, use blkid to detect your ext hdd UUID > https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab | |
| [23:33] <gbz> is the beta 1 image usable? | |
| [23:33] <OerHeks> gbz, ubuntu 12.10 is @ beta 2 | |
| [23:34] <gbz> what about kubuntu? | |
| [23:35] <gbz> show i stop the download? | |
| [23:35] <gbz> s/show/should | |
| [23:35] <OerHeks> sorry, correct, kubuntu is @ beta1 | |
| [23:36] <misael> hola | |
| [23:36] <gbz> OerHeks: but ubuntu is beta 2? | |
| [23:36] <OerHeks> yes | |
| [23:37] <gbz> weird, i thought they followed the same schedules | |
| [23:37] <misael> alguien que hable español ? | |
| [23:38] <gbz> solo un poco | |
| [23:39] <misael> hola gbz | |
| [23:39] * OerHeks is confused, read about beta 2... | |
| [23:40] <misael> no entiendo esto muy bien | |
| [23:40] <gbz> maybe it was alpha 2 | |
| [23:40] <misael> iam from dominican republic | |
| [23:40] <gbz> poor guy:) | |
| [23:42] <gbz> misael: quieres preguntar algo? | |
| [23:44] <misael> no se como se usa esto | |
| [23:45] <gbz> its simpler than windows (tm) | |
| [23:45] <gbz> anyway | |
| [23:54] <GH0> OerHeks, I am aware of fstab, however, this is an external drive that isn't always mounted. | |
| [23:55] <GH0> Along with that, the root folder is still root only, so how would I go about making the folder accessible to everyone? | |
| [23:55] <GH0> Without using chmod/chown. | |
