02:17.22cpu1333mhzIs it possible to re-probe the peripherals (like it does upon KDE starup) without actually logging out and back in to KDE?
02:17.34windowis there any way to bind the windows keyboard key to kde start menu?
02:19.32cpu1333mhzhmm, thats a good question.  I'dd like to know myself  :)  that would be useful
02:21.32tprthe menu is binded as default to the win key
02:21.43tprthought I don't know if it can be changed
02:22.11cpu1333mhzhmm i may know why its not working.  I think i need a diff. keyboard in the XF86config

03:35.28bluefoxicyok, my desktop icons are one-click,
03:35.34bluefoxicyHow do I get MS windows behavior
03:36.25stephencontrol center -> behaviours
03:37.31bluefoxicyunder?
03:38.19stephenlet me check
03:38.38bluefoxicyi see Desktop->behavior, Desktop->Window\ Behavior, neither of these seem to do it . . .
03:39.18liu7it's under window behavior
03:39.26liu7but it's not theme selectable
03:39.30stephenkcontrol -> Peripherals -> Mouse
03:39.48stephenin the icons box
03:41.44liu7bluefoxicy, it's under window behavior
03:41.59liu7but you have to know the correct options to replicate it
03:42.01bluefoxicyliu7: it was indeed under mouse.
03:42.09liu7I dont have it under miuse
03:42.13liu7mouse
03:42.28bluefoxicyI have 3.2.2
03:42.32bluefoxicyhmm
03:42.35stephenliu7: which version of kde are you using?
03:42.47liu73.2.2
03:42.55liu7where is it?
03:43.07bluefoxicysnd_emu10k1            75204  3
03:43.33bluefoxicyhmm what's holding open my sound device?
03:44.04liu7where is it exactly?
03:44.43bluefoxicyliu7: mouse, icons
03:44.56liu7cursor theme?
03:45.15bluefoxicygeneral
03:45.16stephengeneral

03:46.08bluefoxicyI need "KILL ALL USING SOUND CARD DRIVERS" because I must now reload them and one thing is holding themo pen

03:57.03bluefoxicythis whole kos shit has got to go
03:57.45bluefoxicy2 . . .
03:57.58bluefoxicywhat other than ARTS uses the sound HW
03:58.09bluefoxicybecause it fucks my drivers
03:58.37bluefoxicyandh I need audio
03:58.38liu7are you sure everything else is set to use artsd
03:58.43liu7like x11amp
03:59.00bluefoxicywhen there's no sound, sound comes from in my head
03:59.19bluefoxicyliu7:  No, but I'm sure that after shutting KDE down, ogg123 is silent on a text console
03:59.29bluefoxicyand that unloading and reloading the drivers fixes it thef irst time, ubt not the second
03:59.35bluefoxicyand that arts isn't running now.
03:59.44bluefoxicyand also, I have emu10k1 based hardware.
03:59.51bluefoxicyIt can handle 1000 things accessing it
04:00.18bluefoxicysomething is accessing it uncleanly
04:00.30bluefoxicyand it only happens when i start KDE

04:52.29bluefoxicyso I play something with ogg123
04:52.41bluefoxicyhalfway through, kde gets to "Initializing peripherals" and sound vanishes.
