Cannot remove a widget

2012-11-12 Thread Wayne Davis 

Kubuntu 12.10

I installed a  timer widget from the widget download repository link.  
"TIMER" by Davide Bettio


I cannot UN-INSTALL it. there is no un-install button.   Arrrgghh


I did search the web, and found similar instructions. but they do not 
pertain to 12.10 were not 'close enough' to provide a solution.


I would guess that if I knew WHERE it is, that would be most of what I 
need.  But I do not know what to look for.


Suggestions?

TIA

Re: vlc audio

2012-11-12 Thread Wayne Davis 




TRY THIS:

FIX CRACKLING in VLC

Try adding tsched=0 to the load-module module-udev-detect line in 
/etc/pulse/default.pa so it reads:


load-module module-udev-detect tsched=0


SEE WHAT THAT DOES FOR YOU - Fixed MY problems

Good luck

If I go to tools/preferences/audio/output module and change it

Wait to hit pause until after the bugfix.

Re: Cannot remove a widget

2012-11-12 Thread Lisa Kachold 
What is the widget name and installation instructions?

For instance, this widget is installed with an apt-get command and some
custom editing, therefore an apt-get remove will uninstall it?

Re: Cannot remove a widget

2012-11-12 Thread Brian Cluff 

Are you sure you are looking at the correct plasmoid?

I just installed a widget and the one I installed shows an uninstall 
button when I hover the mouse over it.


You can also do  -> addwidgets -> get new widgets -> download 
new widgets
Then under oder by select "Installed".  Everything you have installed 
should how up there with a coresponding uninstall button.


While looking in the widgets list I noticed that I also have "timer" by
Davide Bettio.  But mine was installed via normal packages.  I suspect 
you got yours the same way, so it's most likely another widget that you 
are trying to get rid of.


If you really want to get rid of it you can uninstall the package 
"kdeplasma-addons"

But be warned that it will also remove the following widgets:

Binary Clock
Black Board
Bookmarks
Bouncy Ball
Bubblemon
Calculator
Character Selector
Color Picker
Comic Strip
Dictionary
Eyes
Fifteen Puzzle
File Watcher
Fuzzy Clock

Hard Drive Recovery

2012-11-12 Thread Eric Cope 
Hi all,
I have a Western Digital 2.5" hard drive that spins up, but makes a
terrible clicking sound at approximately 1Hz. The clicking is bad enough
you can feel it when holding the drive. I did some reading on line, and its
beyond my skillset. Does anyone know if affordable drive recovery? The data
on this disk is not worth thousands, but may be worth 100s.

Thanks in advance,
Eric

Re: Cannot remove a widget

2012-11-12 Thread Wayne Davis 
Hmm,  Yes it is the right one.  But If read you correctly, you're saying 
it is a "standard" widget included on everyone's install. Correct?  I 
added so many I may have confused it with one (I) added.




THANKS!   Explains why there's no "un-install"
