[02:29] <cornfeedhobo> is 14.04 still on upstart?
[02:30] <Unit193> Yes.
[02:30] <cornfeedhobo> hmm. i dont see how to start couchdb
[02:30] <cornfeedhobo> no init script, even though there is a conf for one
[02:31] <cornfeedhobo> is there a place for inits outside of /etc/init.d?
[02:33] <Unit193> Upstart jobs are in /etc/init/
[02:33] <cornfeedhobo> ooooh
[02:34] <cornfeedhobo> how come `service` doesnt seem to know about the service even though there is /etc/init/couchdb.conf?
[02:36] <Unit193> Would depend on if it's disabled or something.
[02:42] <cornfeedhobo> i dont think it is...
[02:43] <cornfeedhobo> man... upstart is the only init system i still dont get at all
[04:16] <david____> im having some touble with screen tearing in kubuntu 14.04, can anyone help me>?
[04:18] <dodger> david____: what's your setting under system settings->desktop effects->advanced->OpenGL Options -> tearing prevention ?
[04:19] <david____> automatic
[04:20] <dodger> try setting it to full scene repaints; depending on your GPU this may be a bit slower, but should help
[04:21] <david____> i also swithed to openGL 3.0 , but am not sure if it will help
[04:22] <david____> still if i move this chat window for exaple, the edges break apart a bit
[04:22] <david____> so still have the problem.
[04:22] <dodger> do you have dual monitors by any chance?
[04:23] <david____> nope, a single acer one
[04:23] <david____> 22 inched
[04:23] <dodger> interesting
[04:24] <david____> im using recommended drvier as well
[04:25] <dodger> i can't see any tearing on my monitor with full scene repaints turned on; sounds like there may be a problem depending on hardware
[04:25] <david____> I just dont get why its happening. I use to game with this video card but cant seem to run Kubunu lol
[04:25] <dodger> well, it's not that it's too slow - just that the buffer swap isn't synced to the monitor refresh
[04:26] <dodger> it could be a driver issue or an issue in the compositor somewhere, i can't be sure
[04:27] <david____> what do you think I should try to do if anything. I didnt have this problem when I was running solyk which is based on debian
[04:27] <david____> but for this distro I have it.
[04:28] <dodger> you could try rolling the driver back a version to see if that helps, but short of that i'm really not sure, other than checking the bug database and filing a bug if there isn't one about this issue already
[04:28] <dodger> i don't know if you want to start mucking with different driver versions to fix this though
[04:29] <david____> will I do any damage by chaging drives around
[04:29] <dodger> it's not likely, but drivers can be finicky
[04:30] <dodger> i haven't tried rolling back to anything than what's latest in the repository for ages
[04:30] <david____> i guess ill try the one that says legacy binary driver in the driver manager

[05:37] <TJ-> I'm experiencing a window-resizing issue on 14.04. With 3 X screens and 2 GPUs (GPU#0 Screen 0, GPU #1 Screens 1 and 2), on Screen's 1 and 2 resizing a window only allows increasing the width; reducing width is not possible. On Screen 0 it works correctly.

[07:31] <lordievader> Good morning.
[07:36] <bonk3rzz> its only 12:30am here
[07:38] <lordievader> bonk3rzz: International chat ;)
[07:57] <lolmaus> How do i disable middle click pasting clipboard?
[08:05] <valorie> I think in "configure klipper
[08:05] <valorie> down below all your cuts/copies
[08:09] <lolmaus> valorie: no Paste action/option in Klipper settings
[08:09] <valorie> hmmm
[08:09] <valorie> I know it is changeable somewhere
[08:10] <valorie> maybe it is "enable klipper actions"
[08:10] <valorie> although that is terribly named
[08:10] <valorie> I mean, what actions?
[08:11] <lolmaus> valorie: i use a Lenovo (ex-IBM) laptop with a Trackpoint device. To do mousewheel scrolling with Trackpoint, you hold down the middle button and move the cursor. This causes a terrible lot of false middle clicks. :(
[08:12] <valorie> lolmaus: look in systemsettings
[08:12] <lolmaus> valorie: i did that before asking. These search terms returned nothing in Keyboard Shortcuts section: clip, clipboard, paste, middle, mouse, click.
[08:13] <valorie> :(
[08:14] <lolmaus> valorie: there's a Paste action but it is not mapped to middle mouse button.
[08:16] <valorie> sorry I couldn't help
[08:16] <lolmaus> valorie: hey, i closed Klipper and the behavior was gone. Thank you for the suggestion, i'm digging deeper into this little bastard's options. :D
[08:20] <valorie> lol
[08:21] <lolmaus> valorie: there seems to be no way to disable middle click action. I guess i'll just disable Klipper then. Thank you.
[08:22] <valorie> how can one function without klipper?
[08:22] <valorie> oh my
[08:22] <valorie> but it is bad when it's misconfigured, for sure
[09:00] <lolmaus> valorie: it was not Klipper!
[09:00] <lolmaus> I found the option in Desktop settings! O_O
[09:05] <ALS-IT-NET-PC> hallo, we can you.......

[09:06] <ALS-IT-NET-PC> all right.....
[09:06] <ALS-IT-NET-PC> goodbye.....
[09:08] <lolmaus> valorie: but when i remove that option, middle click paste persists. :(

[13:31] <hateball> I've had it behave that way as well daum, dunno if it's to do with the new pam module that opens up kwallet on logon

[13:32] <daum> alrighty easy enough

[16:39] <silv3r_m00n> is it possible to make chromium use system scrollbars (oxygen style) instead of its own flat style ?

[16:42] <TheFakeazneD525> silv3r_m00n: what version?
[16:42] <TheFakeazneD525> is it 35+?
[16:46] <lolmaus> I've created a panel launcher that executes a `#!/bin/sh` file. I want this file executed in a login shell. How do i do that?
[16:48] <smoof> fakk
[16:50] <TheFakeazneD525> :o
[16:50] <BluesKaj> lolmaus, add script in system settings startup ?
[16:50] <silv3r_m00n> TheFakeazneD525: yes
[16:50] <silv3r_m00n> no, 34
[16:50] <TheFakeazneD525> oh
[16:50] <TheFakeazneD525> so it still uses GTK
[16:50] <lolmaus> BluesKaj: huh? I don't want it run at startup. I want it run when i click the launcher.
[16:50] <TheFakeazneD525> silv3r_m00n: go into chrome/chromium://settings
[16:50] <TheFakeazneD525> scroll to appearance
[16:50] <TheFakeazneD525> click "Use GTK+ theme"
[16:51] <TheFakeazneD525> if your GTK+ 2 theme is oxygen-gtk, then it should work
[16:51] <TheFakeazneD525> otherwise change it to oxygen-gtk
[16:52] <lolmaus> BluesKaj: an exerpt from man bash: Make this shell act as if it had been directly invoked by login. When the shell is interactive, this is equivalent to starting a login shell with ‘exec -l bash’. When the shell is not interactive, the login shell startup files will be executed. ‘exec bash -l’ or ‘exec bash --login’ will replace the current shell with a Bash login shell. See Bash Startup Files, for a description of the special behavior of a
[16:52] <lolmaus> login shell.
[16:52] <lolmaus> That's for `bash -l`
[16:52] <lolmaus> But i've heard that Ubuntu is no longer using bash as a default shell.
[16:53] <TheFakeazneD525> lolmaus: wat
[16:53] <TheFakeazneD525> bash is like, _THE_ shell
[16:57] <lolmaus> TheFakeazneD525: thx, i'll use `bash -l command` then
[16:58] <BluesKaj> lolmaus, check the script option in your text file, 'tools'>mode>scripts>bash, maybe
[16:58] <TheFakeazneD525> I'm pretty sure its standard across all distros
[16:58] <TheFakeazneD525> or most

[18:05] <crissi> no
[18:05] <crissi> its /usr/sbin/NetworkManager
[18:05] <crissi> the plasma thing is only a helper gui
[18:07] <BluesKaj> nevermind crissi, just ignore me ...I'm not talking anymore , there's no point

[20:44] <bjrohan> Hi there. I am installing Kubuntu on a laptop with Windows 7 already installed. In win 7 I created unallocated space, and also created a live USB (14.04 desktop 64 bit). In the install screen, Disk Setup, I get an option to Guided, use entire disk (several options), and manual. If I choose manual, do I then simply select the unallocated space, make it Primary, and mount point is / ?
[20:45] <bjrohan> Sites I have gone to mention something about an install alongside Windows 7 option. I don't see this.
[21:06] <tsimpson> bjrohan: it should offer you the option to install along side windows
[21:07] <bjrohan> it doesnt
[21:09] <tsimpson> well you'll probably want to create at least two partitions, one for the root and one for swap space
[21:09] <tsimpson> and optionally another for /home
[21:14] <Silvershock> I'd recommend having a separate /home partition, and making it something like ext2, then sharing that with Windows via Ext2Fsd or similar.
[21:15] <Silvershock> If you're resizing an NTFS partition, *always* do that from Windows
[21:15] <Silvershock> What's the damn program I used to use...
[21:16] <Silvershock> Basically, you need to cram all the data on your NTFS partition into the beginning or end of the partition, then use Linux to do the actual resizing and repartitioning
