maiz | hi, i'm on kubuntu 13.10, and when i'm connected to an openvpn server with the network-manager; i cannot connect anymore to programs like: pidgin, konversation, kvirc, it founds the server, but gets stuck on "Connecting..."; browsing works fine; what could be causing this? thanks | 09:35 |

maiz | actually even "ping" doesn't work | 09:57 |
Tm_T | maiz: how ping doesn't work? | 09:59 |
maiz | Tm_T: PING www.google.com (74.125.195.106) 56(84) bytes of data. | 09:59 |
maiz | and then nothing | 09:59 |
Tm_T | hmmm | 09:59 |
Tm_T | maiz: sounds like routing issue | 09:59 |
maiz | :( | 10:00 |
Tm_T | maiz: if you the following command in commandline: "route" | 10:01 |
Tm_T | maiz: what is your default route then? | 10:01 |
Tm_T | maiz: that with vpn, ofcourse | 10:02 |
Tm_T | maiz: compare to what you have without vpn | 10:02 |
maiz | Tm_T: http://pastebin.com/2pWsDDPN | 10:02 |
maiz | brb sorry, if you have an idea you can write it i'll it right after | 10:02 |
Tm_T | maiz: looks like ~all your traffic are now pointed to go through vpn | 10:19 |
=== max is now known as Guest76022 | ||
Tm_T | maiz: but I suspect it's not actually routing it forward, I recommend contacting your vpn provider | 10:19 |

BluesKaj | I have something wrong with muon , when I try to "configure software sources" in "settings" , muon just updates and doesn't open the repos list. Strange behaviour | 13:01 |
noiro | hey guys, I've got an issue with the LTS where plasma crashes on bootup after changing from autologin to login | 13:03 |
noiro | Is there any way I can get into the system to fix it? | 13:04 |
BluesKaj | ok, now i see what's going on the new muon discover has the source edit options instead | 13:04 |
BluesKaj | noiro, have you updated /upgraded lately | 13:04 |
noiro | BluesKaj: somewhat. But I can't atm. I don't even know how to get command line up at this point since KDE doesn't support Terminal | 13:05 |
noiro | well, it doesn't support shortcut key terminal and plasma is dead. Does Kubuntu support a 'safe mode' type thing? | 13:05 |
BluesKaj | ctrl+alt +F1-F6 will bring up a TTY (virtual terminal), run your commands then run startx | 13:06 |
BluesKaj | noiro, if you can;t get to TTY then choose recovery kernel in grub , and perhaps you need to update grub too, sudo update-grub | 13:09 |
noiro | I can get to TTY. When logging in, plasma just crashes. | 13:09 |
BluesKaj | which LTS noiro ? | 13:11 |
noiro | 12.04 | 13:12 |
noiro | Looks like there is only 126kb of updates though, not sure if that will fix the crashing of plasma. Is there a way to reload it? | 13:13 |
BluesKaj | ok , update/upgrade/dist-upgrade , and sudo update-grub , as well ,at the TTY , then reboot | 13:13 |
noiro | Alright kaj, rebooted, let's see if it crashes | 13:17 |
noiro | I installed a minimalist package to get rid of effects (I forget the name), if that affects anything, but it worked when I first installed it | 13:18 |
noiro | Yeah, I get: Executable: plasma-desktop PID: 1786 Signal: Bus error (7) | 13:18 |
BluesKaj | noiro, do you have the kubuntu backports enabled in the sources.list ? | 13:21 |
noiro | Blues, I'm running a default config. Are they enabled by default? | 13:21 |
BluesKaj | no , you have to uncomment them or add , i've forgotten | 13:22 |
noiro | where are they located again? I'll nav to them and edit with nano | 13:23 |
BluesKaj | noiro, it's a method of installing a newer version of kde desktop which brings plasma libs etc with it | 13:24 |
noiro | wait, nvm, you said kubuntu backports? Where are those on the file? | 13:24 |
smartboyhw | !ppa-purge | 13:24 |
ubottu | To disable a PPA from your sources and revert your packages back to default Ubuntu packages, install ppa-purge and use the command: « sudo ppa-purge ppa:<repository-name>/<subdirectory> » – For more information, see http://www.webupd8.org/2009/12/remove-ppa-repositories-via-command.html | 13:24 |
smartboyhw | ppa:kubuntu-ppa/backports | 13:25 |
noiro | I'm not even seeing kubuntu ppa backports in /etc/apt/sources.list | 13:26 |
noiro | just deb and deb-src for ubuntu precise and security | 13:26 |
tsimpson | look in /etc/apt/sources.list.d | 13:27 |
tsimpson | it's probably named like kubuntu-ppa-backports-precise.list | 13:27 |
BluesKaj | noiro, , | 13:27 |
BluesKaj | deb http://ca.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise-backports main restricted universe multiverse | 13:27 |
BluesKaj | deb-src http://ca.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise-backports main restricted universe multiverse | 13:27 |
BluesKaj | my archaive is in Canada , noiro , but it should still work | 13:28 |
noiro | I see us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise-backports main restricted universe multiverse | 13:29 |
noiro | It doesn't look commented out. What am I supposed to do with it? | 13:30 |
BluesKaj | yup, that's it , make sure there's no # in front | 13:30 |
noiro | would a sudo apt-get purge plasma-desktop && apt-get install plasma-desktop work? | 13:31 |
BluesKaj | dunno , never tried it | 13:31 |
noiro | nope, couldn't open lock file >.< And I was root | 13:32 |
BluesKaj | close muon if it's still open , and your sources.list as well | 13:33 |

lordievader | Hey ruediger | 13:47 |
ruediger | I'm trying to install Kubuntu on a thinkpad l430 but after I select "Start Kubuntu" in grub nothing happens. The display is on but black. | 13:49 |
noiro | Screw it, I'm going xubuntu. | 13:49 |
ruediger | (I'm trying to boot kubuntu from a usb drive. I already tried different usb ports) | 13:52 |
shadeslayer | hm ... | 13:52 |
shadeslayer | ruediger: what release is this? | 13:53 |
ruediger | 13.04 amd64 | 13:53 |
lordievader | ruediger: And how did you create the live-usb? | 13:54 |
ruediger | lordievader: on an osx system https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromImgFiles I already used the drive to install kubuntu on an older dell. So it should be working | 13:55 |
lordievader | ruediger: Hmm I see, as a work around you could try the 12.04 image and upgrade that one to 13.04 (or even use the alternate cd of 12.04) | 13:56 |
ruediger | lordievader: thanks. I'll give it a try | 14:01 |

KpycNuK | So what is your problem? You can't regulate it? | 19:49 |
KpycNuK | NickDGE ? :3 | 19:57 |
NickDGE | phunyguy ,the guide that you gave me for my brightness control problem - unfortunately when i update grub it gives me a syntax error on the line provided in the guide to add | 20:10 |
NickDGE | KpycNuK yep? | 20:11 |
NickDGE | oh sorry | 20:11 |
NickDGE | yeah, cant regulate it | 20:11 |
NickDGE | i tried this | 20:11 |
NickDGE | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AspireS3 | 20:11 |
NickDGE | but unfortunately when i update grub it gives me an error on the exact same line i added | 20:11 |
KpycNuK | It isn't help. But what shows you, when you type find /sys/devices/ -type d -name acpi* | 20:16 |
KpycNuK | NickDGE I had forgotten to use nick for notification :3 | 20:22 |
KpycNuK | show the output from: find /sys/devices/ -type d -name acpi* | 20:22 |
NickDGE | well | 20:22 |
NickDGE | if after i run sudo-update grub and it returns a syntax error | 20:23 |
NickDGE | i presume the procedure didnt go as planned | 20:23 |
NickDGE | or it did | 20:23 |
NickDGE | or linux just isnt loose like that | 20:23 |
slatenails | the help page says "sudo update-grub", not "sudo-update grub" | 20:26 |
NickDGE | i didnt type it out here right | 20:26 |

Anne-senpai | Hi, all. Possibly complex question: I'm running 13.04 (32bit), 3.8.0-30-generic kernel, and I want to ditch Noveau for the proprietary nVidia drivers (video card is GeForce GT 540M according to lspci). I have seen references to a linux-restricted-modules and linux-restricted-modules-common pair of packages to install, as well as envy and envyNG (neither current). I had tried this once before, but wound up with my screen @ 640x480 | 20:56 |
Anne-senpai | centered on the screen with the rest black (the entire usable area was the centered 640x480 box, mouse wouldn't enter outer area, changing resolution did nothing at all, etc) | 20:56 |
Anne-senpai | Ergo, does this: http://www.dedoimedo.com/computers/ubuntu-ringtail-nvidia.html work? | 20:56 |
