[12:11] morning === d is now known as Guest91302 === dan_ is now known as Guest34277 === kubuntu is now known as live_session [13:01] 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 [13:03] hey guys, I've got an issue with the LTS where plasma crashes on bootup after changing from autologin to login [13:04] Is there any way I can get into the system to fix it? [13:04] ok, now i see what's going on the new muon discover has the source edit options instead [13:04] noiro, have you updated /upgraded lately [13:05] 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] well, it doesn't support shortcut key terminal and plasma is dead. Does Kubuntu support a 'safe mode' type thing? [13:06] ctrl+alt +F1-F6 will bring up a TTY (virtual terminal), run your commands then run startx [13:09] 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] I can get to TTY. When logging in, plasma just crashes. [13:11] which LTS noiro ? [13:12] 12.04 [13:13] 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] ok , update/upgrade/dist-upgrade , and sudo update-grub , as well ,at the TTY , then reboot [13:17] Alright kaj, rebooted, let's see if it crashes [13:18] 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] Yeah, I get: Executable: plasma-desktop PID: 1786 Signal: Bus error (7) [13:21] noiro, do you have the kubuntu backports enabled in the sources.list ? [13:21] Blues, I'm running a default config. Are they enabled by default? [13:22] no , you have to uncomment them or add , i've forgotten [13:23] where are they located again? I'll nav to them and edit with nano [13:24] noiro, it's a method of installing a newer version of kde desktop which brings plasma libs etc with it [13:24] wait, nvm, you said kubuntu backports? Where are those on the file? [13:24] !ppa-purge [13:24] 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:/ » – For more information, see http://www.webupd8.org/2009/12/remove-ppa-repositories-via-command.html [13:25] ppa:kubuntu-ppa/backports [13:26] I'm not even seeing kubuntu ppa backports in /etc/apt/sources.list [13:26] just deb and deb-src for ubuntu precise and security [13:27] look in /etc/apt/sources.list.d [13:27] it's probably named like kubuntu-ppa-backports-precise.list [13:27] noiro, , [13:27] deb http://ca.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise-backports main restricted universe multiverse [13:27] deb-src http://ca.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise-backports main restricted universe multiverse [13:28] my archaive is in Canada , noiro , but it should still work [13:29] I see us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise-backports main restricted universe multiverse [13:30] It doesn't look commented out. What am I supposed to do with it? [13:30] yup, that's it , make sure there's no # in front [13:31] would a sudo apt-get purge plasma-desktop && apt-get install plasma-desktop work? [13:31] dunno , never tried it [13:32] nope, couldn't open lock file >.< And I was root [13:33] close muon if it's still open , and your sources.list as well [13:39] Good afternoon.

[13:49] Screw it, I'm going xubuntu. [13:52] (I'm trying to boot kubuntu from a usb drive. I already tried different usb ports) [13:52] hm ... [13:53] ruediger: what release is this? [13:53] 13.04 amd64 [13:54] ruediger: And how did you create the live-usb? [13:55] 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 [13:56] 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) [14:01] lordievader: thanks.

[14:47] 0.o [14:47] not sure how that matters because if it boots it's good [14:47] you get to the installer [14:47] so UEFI secure boot does work [14:50] shadeslayer: I disabled it and now it works fine [14:50] huh [14:50] weird === The_Jag_ is now known as The_Jag === christian is now known as Guest23623 [15:24] I have linked a disk to an user home directory /media/username/disk to /home/username/disk.

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] 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] Ergo, does this: http://www.dedoimedo.com/computers/ubuntu-ringtail-nvidia.html work?
