| [00:53] <krissi> Hello, I just installed kubuntu 14.04 and i can't find my mic | |
| [02:08] <valorie> hi krissi - 14.04 help in #ubuntu+1 | |
| [02:54] <ironhoof> Hey, just a quickie I hope, but a friend of mine wants a good e-mail pop notifier, in the kubuntu install I gave him. You have any recommendations? | |
| [05:39] <kde_new> hi how do i make krunner search my pdf docs. Gnome shell shows the docs when i press the super key and search but kde does not show it. My Docs are placed in the Documents directory in home but i still dont see it getting properly searched. Any settings to enable for better search and any tags to be added in Dolphin for this ? | |
| [05:40] <kde_new> i am using Kubuntu 13.10 KDE 4.12.3 | |
| [05:42] <Caucas> are you sure krunner is able to do that? | |
| [05:43] <kde_new> Caucas: how do you search docs. i see only few getting searched. I understand the search daemon which starts with Alphabet N does that but how do you trigger it. I believe its only through krunner right ? | |
| [05:44] <kde_new> Caucas: i mean i want something like what i see in gnome-shell. I press Super button and i search for some pdf and i type the name and it shows it and i press enter thats it. Can i do something like this in KDE ? | |
| [05:48] <Caucas> I think the krunner scope is limited. He doesn't have access to file system, so you can install KSearch and enjoy ;) | |
| [05:50] <kde_new> Caucas: so by default you cannot do this in KDE. you need an other application to be installed is it ? :o | |
| [05:51] <Caucas> you can aslo use console ;) | |
| [05:52] <Caucas> Or Dolphin finder | |
| [05:53] <kde_new> oh ok i was under the impression that i can do this from krunner like how gnome shell does straight | |
| [05:58] <Graf_Westerholt> kde_new, you can enable Nepomuk-Search-Plugin in Krunner. ;) | |
| === marcos is now known as marcosroriz | |
| [06:13] <kde_new> Graf_Westerholt: how do i do that ? | |
| [06:13] <Graf_Westerholt> kde_new, do you not have a „settings“-button in krunner? | |
| [06:14] <kde_new> oh ok so by default is disabled and we have to manually enable it. On enabling it i can search all my docs from krunner. Is that right . | |
| [06:15] <Graf_Westerholt> I guess. | |
| [06:15] <Graf_Westerholt> Why do you not just try it? | |

| [08:09] <kubuntu_beta> Can Kubuntu be installed within windows? | |
| [08:17] <kubuntu_beta> /j ubuntu+1 | |
| [08:38] <goose00014000> If you needed a particular command in Linux while using the console, but you didn't know what the command was and didn't have internet access, is there a particular command you can use to search for it? Consider both of these scenarios: 1) You have a vaque memory of what the command is or you remember what the first couple of letters of the command are; 2) You don't remember the command at all and | |

| [10:44] <soa2ii> Hi. I just tried the 14.04 beta and if you choose german during install you still end up on a half translated KDE session after installation … is this a known bug or expected behaviour? | |

| [15:07] <Mamarok> what alternative is there to parted? Apparently I ran into a double free error and all frontends I know use libparted as well (partitionmanager and kvpm) | |
| [15:12] <ikonia> Mamarok: that's worrying | |
| [15:12] <ikonia> parteds pretty much become the standard for most | |
| [15:13] <Mamarok> yes, so having a double free error is really not good | |
| [15:13] <Mamarok> there is fdisk maybe? Haven't used that in ages | |
| [15:14] <Mamarok> I tried partitionmanagaer, then kvpm, then parted directly, all produce the same error | |
| [15:14] <Mamarok> so libparded is to blame :( | |
| [15:14] <lordievader> Mamarok: Fdisk doesn't support gpt, so it is an alternative for mbr based disks. | |
| [15:16] <Mamarok> apparently a similar error was already reported in 2009, and there was a gcc4 patch: bug 371595 | |
| [15:16] <ubottu> bug 371595 in parted (Ubuntu) "parted crashes with "double free or corruption" message" [Undecided,Expired] https://launchpad.net/bugs/371595 | |
| [15:16] <Mamarok> with a much older version of parted though, current is 2.3 | |
| [15:17] <Mamarok> but that bug above is related to long path names, I have a simple /dev/sdb | |
| [15:25] <Mamarok> I just wonder why we use such an old version, current is 3.1, released in 2012 | |
| [15:26] <Mamarok> and apparently that was solved in 3.1: from the changelog of 3.1: | |
| [15:26] <Mamarok> libparted: avoid an invalid free when creating many partitions in | |
| [15:26] <Mamarok> a GPT partition table. [bug introduced in parted-1.9.0] | |
| [15:27] * Mamarok goes to fetch version 3.1 | |
| [15:27] <lordievader> Mamarok: That might be the sync from Debian, stable offers 2.3-12. | |
| [15:27] <OerHeks> gdisk supports gpt too | |
| [15:27] <lordievader> !info parted trusty | |
| [15:27] <ubottu> parted (source: parted): disk partition manipulator. In component main, is standard. Version 2.3-18 (trusty), package size 43 kB, installed size 182 kB | |
| [15:27] <OerHeks> !info gdisk | |
| [15:27] <ubottu> gdisk (source: gdisk): GPT fdisk text-mode partitioning tool. In component main, is extra. Version 0.8.7-1 (saucy), package size 337 kB, installed size 770 kB | |
| [15:28] <Mamarok> why do we use such an old parted library? | |
| [15:29] <Mamarok> I know why: "Parted (post-2.4) no longer has the ability to create and modify file systems" | |
| [15:30] <ikonia> Mamarok: this just seems silly | |
| [15:30] <Mamarok> totally | |
| [15:30] <Mamarok> like going back to the stone age | |
| [15:30] <ikonia> it seems more silly as libparted is becoming 'the' standard | |
| [15:31] <Mamarok> then maybe we have to rethink the standard, seriously | |
| [15:31] <lordievader> Doesn't parted give you a warning when you use it to make filesystems? | |
| [15:32] <ikonia> Mamarok: or maybe actually keep up to date with bug fixes (especially critical ones) on the standard | |
| [15:35] <Mamarok> yeah, but hey, a simple parted -l on /dev/sdb causes the crash, I never even come mear to create a partition or a file system | |
| [15:35] <Mamarok> near* | |
| [15:36] <lordievader> Oeh, that's nasty. | |
| [15:37] <ctabuyo> hello | |
| [15:38] <ctabuyo> I´m windows user and I wanna change to Linux but I don´t like ubuntu´s visual aspect. So I´m wondering if in kubuntu you can download the same programms that in ubuntu? | |
| [15:39] <ctabuyo> please help me | |
| [15:39] <lordievader> ctabuyo: Jup, it even uses the same core ;) | |
| [15:40] <ctabuyo> Thank you lordievader I´m gonna install kubuntu in my pc :) | |
| [15:40] <lordievader> \o/ | |
| [15:42] <OerHeks> ctabuyo, kubuntu might have better versions of programs, K3B <> brasero and more | |
| [15:44] <ctabuyo> I never changed to Linux because I like to play games with my pc but today I read about wine. Someone here uses Wine for games? Does it ralentize the frame rate? | |

| [22:19] <Guest55489> hi Im experience weird behavior with Muon discover. when I search for something, many packages do not show up. However if search in the package manager they do | |
| [22:20] <Guest55489> all the ppas seem to be configured correctly. Is this normal?\ | |
| [22:26] <valorie> Guest55489: if you search specifically for one of the missing packages, does it show up? | |
| [22:26] <valorie> ronnoc: work in progress | |
| [22:26] <valorie> and in fact, the kubuntuforums people will be able to set up their own bodega if they want | |
| [22:26] <valorie> the few sales could support the forum | |
| [22:27] <valorie> or they could offer memberships | |
| [22:30] <Guest55489> no it doesn't | |
| [22:31] <valorie> hmmm | |
| [22:31] <valorie> discover is set up to offer applications, not packages | |
| [22:32] <valorie> so I would say if something is part of an app, rather than an app, then you won't find it | |
| [22:32] <valorie> but if it is missing applications, then please file on/find and comment on a bug | |
| [22:33] <Guest55489> ok this makes sense, how does it decide the difference between packages and apps | |
| [22:34] <valorie> I'm not sure | |
| [22:34] <valorie> perhaps by dependencies | |
| [22:34] <valorie> applications have them | |
| [22:35] <valorie> but are in general not dependencies of anything beyond the meta-packages such as kubuntu-desktop | |
| [22:36] <Guest55489> alright thanks that explains alot | |
| [22:39] <valorie> tbh, I don't like software centers, so I use muon package manager or the cli | |
