| 00:00.51 | turdfergusson | wow, this clock applet utilizes 85% of cpu usage in superkaramba lol |
| 00:01.06 | Roey | turdfergusson: awesome way to use cpu bandwidth :) |
| 00:01.42 | canllaith | Yep, make sure you are getting your moneys worth out of your processor and it's cooling! |
| 00:01.47 | turdfergusson | Indeed |
| 00:02.10 | turdfergusson | think i'll try and find a less system intensive clock applet hehe |

| 00:22.28 | canllaith | You want to drop a shortcut that does 'kfmclient openURL /' I think .... |
| 00:22.53 | canllaith | Ok take your current 'home' shortcut |
| 00:23.05 | Ruffian|JANE| | i just want the /directory |
| 00:23.07 | Ruffian|JANE| | not /home |
| 00:23.16 | canllaith | Well if you don't want to listen that's cool I can go back to eating my lunch :) |
| 00:23.24 | Ruffian|JANE| | ok, ill listen |
| 00:24.03 | canllaith | ok what you want to do is create a new 'link to application' on your desktop |
| 00:24.09 | canllaith | Using the right click menu |
| 00:24.13 | Ruffian|JANE| | +0 |
| 00:24.14 | Ruffian|JANE| | =) |
| 00:24.28 | Ruffian|JANE| | ok |
| 00:24.33 | canllaith | Once you have done that make the command be |
| 00:24.37 | canllaith | 'kfmclient openURL /' |
| 00:24.46 | canllaith | On the last tab under command. |
| 00:24.54 | canllaith | Then click on 'advanced options' down the bottom of that tab |
| 00:25.02 | canllaith | You'll see an option that says 'Run as a different user' in that popup box |
| 00:26.00 | canllaith | Type in root and there you have it. |
| 00:26.08 | Ruffian|JANE| | i cant find run as different user |
| 00:26.08 | gumpish | How do I change the mouse cursor? |
| 00:27.09 | canllaith | Ruffian|JANE|: Usually there is already a shotcut to tyat |
| 00:27.10 | canllaith | that* |
| 00:27.25 | Ruffian|JANE| | huh? |
| 00:27.30 | canllaith | in your Kmenu->System->More Applications->File Manager Super User Mode |

| 00:29.09 | gumpish | now then... how do I create my own theme =p |
| 00:29.29 | Ruffian|JANE| | canllaith, i clicked what you said and nothing happendd |
| 00:30.07 | canllaith | Ruffian|JANE|: Then you did not do it quite right. |
| 00:30.21 | canllaith | Although it seems konqueror --profile filemanagement is the better way |
| 00:31.02 | Ruffian|JANE| | canllaith, i found the run as different user command, but in Ubuntu, root is different |
| 00:31.09 | canllaith | That's nice. |
| 00:31.23 | Ruffian|JANE| | su is sudo, and you use your user password instead |
| 00:31.26 | canllaith | Renze: Whatcha up to? |
| 00:32.01 | Ruffian|JANE| | so i get the error: incorrect password |
| 00:35.28 | Ruffian|JANE| | i figured it out |

| 00:49.28 | neko | there's a question actually |
| 00:50.10 | Dhraakellian | what do you get if you multiply six by nine? |
| 00:50.14 | Theory | 42 |
| 00:50.26 | Theory | except ofc, nobody writes jokes in base 13 |
| 00:50.30 | grepper | Dhraakellian: by 9 what ? |
| 00:50.41 | neko | is amarok meant to block everything else from using the sound system whilst the program is open (even if not playing) |
| 00:50.43 | neko | ? |
| 00:50.53 | Dhraakellian | neko: depends |
| 00:50.56 | canllaith | interesting |
| 00:51.06 | canllaith | the psuedotransparency in kicker seems a little strange |
| 00:51.10 | Dhraakellian | if you're using alsa and a system capable of hardware mixing, no |
| 00:51.16 | Dhraakellian | otherwise... |
| 00:51.23 | Dhraakellian | it can get a tad tricky |
| 00:51.40 | neko | i should be on ALSA |
| 00:52.09 | neko | dunno what my sound card's capabilities are though |
| 00:54.08 | canllaith | Some applications 'lock' the sound card device even when they are not actually playing. |
| 00:54.15 | canllaith | It's a bit of a naughty design. |
| 00:54.46 | aseigo | s,seems a little strange,is a complete hack, |
| 00:54.55 | Dhraakellian | neko: if you're using arts, you can set it to deactivate after a certain period of inactivity |
| 00:55.16 | Dhraakellian | kcontrol > sound & multimedia > sound system |
| 00:55.23 | canllaith | :) aseigo, my favourite midget. What timing. |
| 00:55.24 | amaroK | &:-) |
| 00:55.27 | canllaith | Kicker just crashed. As usual. |
| 00:55.30 | canllaith | I think it can hear you coming. |
| 00:55.43 | aseigo | it's just a cry for help, not an actual crash |
| 00:55.57 | canllaith | Really, I'm beating it and making it do my laundry. You didn't hear that from me though. |

| 00:56.22 | neko | so amarok isn't playing nicely by the looks of it |
| 00:56.24 | canllaith | HEAD |
| 00:56.43 | Dhraakellian | neko: are you using arts in amarok? |

| 00:57.04 | aseigo | canllaith: really... bt? |
| 00:57.12 | Dhraakellian | you could try gstreamer with alsasink |
| 00:57.16 | Dhraakellian | see if that works |
| 00:57.20 | canllaith | Not that time. I'll try and reproduce it in a sec :) |
| 00:57.23 | neko | ah, it was set to use xine |
| 00:57.42 | canllaith | Actually it's behaving really strangely |
| 00:58.04 | canllaith | I just flicked over to a twinview setup and set kicker to go over only one screen and a few fiddly things |
| 00:58.13 | canllaith | and now it looks.... actually I'll screenshot it. |
| 00:59.01 | neko | that's better |
| 00:59.10 | canllaith | Do I want to be running sti instead, do you think? |

| 01:12.30 | turdfergusson | anyone know about superkaramba? I'm needing to change the text color in this script and don't know what value to change it too for white text :( |

| 01:12.56 | turdfergusson | the color=0,0,0 is what I need to change I believe |
| 01:15.44 | Dhraakellian | my guess is that it would be FF,FF,FF |
| 01:16.03 | Dhraakellian | or 256,256,256, if it's not using hex |
