  1. [kubuntu] Dolphin fails to copy and paste file on SFTP

    I'm connecting to a CentOS server via SFTP in Dolphin.

    I can read and write to files, but when I try to copy a file and then paste it (either in the same dir, or a different dir on the same...
  2. [kubuntu] Re: alsa error: Device or resource busy (No sound in Boxee on 64bit Karmic)

    Not sporadic for me, happens everytime I try to use the Pandora app.

    There is a bug report about it. Maybe they will fix it someday.

    http://jira.boxee.tv/browse/BOXEE-4411
  3. [kubuntu] Re: alsa error: Device or resource busy (No sound in Boxee on 64bit Karmic)

    There is this in guisettings.xml:

    <audiodevice>iec958:CARD=CA0106,DEV=0</audiodevice>

    That looks like the same sound card KDE is using. (At least the CA0106 part shows in system settings.)

  4. [kubuntu] alsa error: Device or resource busy (No sound in Boxee on 64bit Karmic)

    Kind folks in the boxee forum were unable to help me. I am pretty sure there is a problem with my audio setup.

    Sound works in the rest of KDE, and sound also works with flash. (Actually flash...
  5. [kubuntu] Flash works fine in Konqueror, but No Sound in Firefox

    I don't think the problem is with Flash, since HTML5 Video is also silent.


    about:plugins tells me I am running Flash 10.0 d21 in both browsers.

    I have tried things such as uninstalling (with...
  6. [kubuntu] Re: Upgrade to KDE 4.3.0 via backports; No Window Decorations, Can't Type

    Yeah, I have already tried totally removing my user's .kde folders (and saving a backup of it). I tried it again just now, but to no effect. KDE still has no window decorations.
  7. [kubuntu] [SOLVED] Upgrade to KDE 4.3.0 via backports; No Window Decorations, Can't Type

    SOLVED: Hey kids, the trick is 'apt-get dist-upgrade' when adding new sources.



    I tried to upgrade my Jaunty box to KDE 4.3.0 by following the instructions on this page:

  8. [kubuntu] Re: apt unmet dependencies while attempting to try latest KDE beta

    Hmm.. I don't think that is actually doing anything.

    The apt-get -f install (above) is odd, because it looks like it is going to work, but then dies on the mysterious "broken pipe" (what is that,...
  9. [kubuntu] [solved] apt unmet dependencies while attempting to try latest KDE beta

    sudo dpkg -i --force-overwrite /var/cache/apt/archives/koffice-data-kde4_1%3a1.9.98.2-0ubuntu3~intrepid2_all.deb

    That fixed it for me. -Axiom

  10. [all variants] Re: mount fedora ext3 gives "wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock"

    Ha! Turns out it was LVM across two drives, and I was trying to mount them one at a time.

    Thanks for the hint.

    Instructions here worked for me to get them mounted:

  11. [all variants] [SOLVED] mount fedora ext3 gives "wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock"

    This is the command I am running:

    And I get:

  12. [kubuntu] Distorted sound. Kmix will not control system volume.

    In a nutshell:

    Sound does not work on startup.
    sudo alsa force-reload will make it work again, but has a lot of distortion. Can't change the system sound with kmix.

  13. [kubuntu] Re: gtk-qt-engine-kde4 works for all gtk apps *except* Firefox and Thunderbird

    Ok, I tried the offical Ubuntu version, and it seems to work, at least the scrollbars are right. Flash seems to behave less well in this version, but it does work most of the time.

  14. [kubuntu] gtk-qt-engine-kde4 works for all gtk apps *except* Firefox and Thunderbird

    I followed the instructions to install gtk-qt-engine-kde4, and set it up in System Settings.

    Gimp and Pidgin look a lot better.

    But Firefox and Thunderbird are stuck in 1995 grey box mode.

    This confused me too. You have to change it in System Settings>Country/Region and Language>Time & Dates>Time Format
