[00:33] How do I configure GTK applications to read from ~/.XCompose in Trusty? [00:56] I need to make a new account. Is there a way I can import the kmenu from one account to another? I've installed a lot of programs and moved program groups around a good deal and I'd rather not have to add everything manually if I have a choice. [01:09] Hold on, I think I might have just found what I'm looking for. [01:09] Logomachist: doesn't it already transfer? [01:10] ObsequiousNewt: Apparently not... I just created the new account and it has the default menu [01:10] Huh. I thought it was shared; I couldn't find user-specific config. Gimme a few minutes... [01:27] brb [01:42] How do I configure GTK applications to read from ~/.XCompose in Trusty? [02:29] ObsequiousNewt__: how about writing to the list? [02:29] you've asked the same question multiple times, with no answer [02:30] Good point [02:30] Which list? [02:30] if not the list, kubuntuforum [02:30] kubuntu-users, I would think [02:30] Never used it before... [02:30] even Ubuntu Forums might have an answer, since they are gtk experts for the most part [02:31] !kubuntu-user list [02:31] pfff [02:31] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-users [02:36] thanks === Toadnohyp is now known as Hypnotoad [06:32] ???????????????????????????? [06:33] I just got a notification that said "a new version of kubuntu is avail" [06:35] yes, 14.04 is out and if you are using 13.10 it should notify you of the possible upgrade [06:38] Good morning. [06:42] TheFakeazneD525: what version are you on now? [06:42] 14.04 [06:42] Blidin Edj [06:42] I installed it on the day after the release [06:43] you might look at your repositories [06:43] perhaps you have an experiemental or so? [06:43] Not as far as I know [06:44] there were new linux headers out today [06:44] ah, so thats what it meant [06:44] but i wouldn't call that a "new version of kubuntu" [06:44] ya, I got the headers [06:44] valorie: well the notifier said new version :o [06:45] sounds like a buglet [06:45] but I guess it was only the headers [06:45] ah, headers installed [06:45] brb reboot [07:03] hi all, I'm on 12.04, whenever I try to sudo apt-get install update && sudo apt-get upgrade then I get E: Unable to locate package update [07:04] why is that? If I use the graphical interface, it updates. why I cannot do it anymore from commandline? [07:07] excognac: Because you are trying to install the package update (and that does not exist), you want "sudo apt-get update&&sudo apt-get upgrade". [07:07] oh lol sorry, no need for "install" [07:09] btw anybody tried to release upgrade from 12.04 to 14.04? As there are 3 releases inbetween, isn't just easier to reinstall? [07:10] When 14.04.1 becomes available you can jump from Precise in one go. [07:12] oh, that will be great thanks bro [07:26] @excognac the way you are using it apt-get is trying to install a package called update. But you would like apt-get to update it's package list.

If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience [09:33] I just upgraded to trusty, however muon says linux-signed-image-generic is upgrade able. When I try it says- "The "linux-signed-image-generic" package could not be marked for installation or upgrade: Depends: linux-signed-image-generic, but it is not installable" [09:41] !info linux-signed-image-generic [09:41] Package linux-signed-image-generic does not exist in trusty [09:41] ^ that may be your problem. [09:44] then ahy muon says there is an upgrade? (from V 3.11.0.19.20 to 3.13.0.24.29) ? [09:45] I'd say install linux-image-generic and remove linug-signed-image-generic [09:47] linux-image-generic is already installed.... i'll try to remove linux-signed-image-generic [09:48] seems ok...

How can I make konsole always open with the same geometery, and not to 'mimic' the last resized one? [11:25] Mmike: Right click window border -> More Actions -> Special Application Settings -> Size & Position tab. [11:26] lordievader, I don't have anything selected/enabled there [11:27] Mmike: No, but you can apply an initial size. [11:27] hm [11:27] This is something that has changed recently? That is, I only observed this after upgrade to 14.04 [11:28] Don't know, I think I applied a rule once one my konsole. [11:33] lordievader, thnx [11:33] lordievader, configured it trough that menu, seems satisfactory :) [11:33] ;) [11:42] Can i find a hotkey by keyboard combination? [11:42] Rather than by what it triggers [11:44] Oh, the search field accept keyboard combinations as text [12:22] How can I see the output from the entire boot process? I have an init script that doesn't seem to be start (or at least starting correctly) [12:36] dcorbin: dmesg? [12:36] Avihay, dmesg doesn't have the init.d output. === turbo_ is now known as Guest55807 [13:20] hey guys - skype keeps making feedback(just when it is running, not even a call) so I get a low humming noise through my speakers when it is running. Any ideas on how to fix that? [13:20] hey I used Fedora KDE before and when I had laptop hooked on external monitor and closed lid it didn't go to sleep but outputted signal to external monitor how can I do that in Kubuntu 14.04? [13:20] daum, turn your mic boost down if it's enabled in alsamixer [13:21] BluesKaj, its not enabled [13:21] i also disabled skype from modifying the sound levels [13:21] it says it's using pulseaudio [13:25] also krunner isn't searching for files but dolphin does [13:26] daum, unless you need simultaneous sound sources and you have intel hda audio , then pulseaudio isn't really needed, but I'm not sure if skype requires pulse. I guess you'll have to experiment with different audio setups to find out what seems to be a ground loop in your audio sources. [13:26] BluesKaj, the issue is it doesn't have any other options for me to pick from? [13:26] BluesKaj, PulseAudio Server(local) is all that it lists? [13:27] back to Fedora, buntus still don't work [13:27] daum, pavucontrol is a gui for pulse, you might try that for setting your sources [13:28] BluesKaj, ok trying! [13:35] ok, BBL, stuff to do for a few mins === robjloranger_ is now known as robjloranger [14:33] y0 [14:39] y4ns, hey [14:50] I had problem with sound in my kubuntu 14.10 [14:50] sorry 14.04 [14:52] Sound is not clean enough === yoda is now known as Guest65536 [14:59] y4ns, open alsamixer and turn the volume down to see if that cleans it up [15:00] y4ns, is this a desktop or laptop? [15:00] netbook, Nokia Booklet 3G [15:01] i had sound, but its not clear enough. Hard to explain what happend exacly. Sound go than stop then play. [15:03] netbooks aren't exactly hifi [15:04] dinky speakers=dinky sound [15:04] even with headphones [15:05] Buil in Audio Analog Stereo [15:05] Should i try to install another drivers for it? [15:06] y4ns, don't think that will help [15:07] Damn i cannot listen music on it. [15:07] try connecting a desktop speaker system [15:07] do you have any audio right now> [15:08] ? [15:09] I had sound but its stop every single second and then play. So 1 sec sound 1 sec nothing over and over. [15:09] So i hear something but not correctly [15:09] Like scratch [15:09] :) [15:09] y4ns, which player [15:10] Every single sound, from system sounds, yt, amarok. [15:10] Everything [15:11] I think drivers are not correct. By sound card settings i see built-in Audio [15:11] And i had realtek sound card on it.

Ammm... how? [15:19] :p [15:19] Sorry this is my second day with kubuntu [15:20] use the arrow keys to navigate < > then the up down to change the setting [15:20] I just noticed something weird: since when does Kubuntu mount USB sticks under /media/USER/xxxxxx ? [15:20] BluesKaj: You the best [15:21] I disable it but still same. [15:22] y4ns, turn your speaker volume up in alsamixer [15:22] im on headphones right now. [15:22] No diffrence. [15:23] hyper_ch, that the default, it should appear in dolphin "devices" [15:23] that's [15:24] y4ns, likeI posted above, in the terminal, sudo modprobe snd-hda-intel , then reboot [15:25] BluesKaj: ok [15:30] BluesKaj: after reboot nothing happend [15:30] Still same [15:30] Creepy sound [15:30] try a different player like vlc [15:31] But i try to play clip on yt [15:32] And also when i make test sound i system settings its same [15:36] y4ns, F6 on alsamixer and try a different soundcard option if available [15:36] Not available, only this one. [15:45] whats the name of the network editor app in kde [15:46] y4ns, install pavucontrol it might help [15:47] modern, the gui or the texteditor? [15:47] The gui [15:48] etc/network/interfaces and there is a text file to edit but it doesn't appear to work [15:49] but I know there is a gui front end for making these changes [15:50] Still same after pavucontrol install. [15:50] But i found this article [15:50] http://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/Soundkarten_konfigurieren/HDA [15:50] But is in german :/ [15:51] How does one patch KDE2 under freebsd [15:53] How does one patch KDE2 under freebsd <---- huh.... [15:54] I just tried joining #ubuntu and it says "I must be invited".. what's up with that? [15:54] wat [15:54] same here [15:54] same here [15:54] never mind kubuntu is better... [15:54] Scunizi: we mainly deal with Kubuntu, but we can try to help with mainline Ubu problems [15:54] yossarianuk: indeed ;D [15:56] modern, for /etc/network/interfaces to work you need to use a static IP and remove network manager like so: http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/setting-up-an-network-interfaces-file/ [15:56] TheFakeazneD525: I'm aware.. and I run Kubuntu :) .. my question is a cli question anyway, not desktop specific.. I'm trying to create a txt file of directory names and the subdirectory names that are underlying. No file names.

A apt addon that got source directly from the git/svn repos, compiled and compiled it in order of dependancies [16:10] It would be highly impractical, and create the most unstable system in existance [16:10] but, ubuntu could claim most bleeding edge [16:11] as another repos that would be cool, TheFakeazneD525, not having to clone and compile etc [16:11] TheFakeazneD525: Bleeding edge, but completely unusable :( [16:11] :D === steel|off is now known as steel_afk [16:14] well , 14.10 seems ok so far altho there aren't a whole lot of package changes just yet. === pcwhite is now known as PaulW2U [16:15] :o you're testing UU?

But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-) [16:22] yeah yeah [16:22] heh [16:37] TheFakeazneD525: if you like compiling bleeding edge git, you will love Gentoo [16:38] Gentoo "Nothing too unstable for the main branch :^)" [16:39] thats a problem that can be solved with more cflags! :) [16:40] TheFakeazneD525: Gentoo is rather stable actually ;) [16:40] TheFakeazneD525, rberg_ , I'm too lazy for gentoo, too much work for such little reward :) [16:40] indeed [16:41] same with arch [16:42] true [16:42] I inherited a huge gentoo install base :( [16:45] don't think I'm capable of installing gentoo anyway, tried a few times and couldn't get anywhere...I'll admit that [16:46] its not too bad if you have a weekend to throw at it :) [16:46] I'd give up in frustration , I have too many other things going on weekends [16:47] apparently, glibc is an optional package [16:47] kek [16:47] only if you expect to run anything written in c I suppose [16:47] :P [17:01] hi! I have a nvidia card, there used to be a menu item in kubuntu which allowed installing the nvidia drivers with "additional drivers"", I don't see that menu item now.... [17:01] also the resolution is really low, it is no higher then 1024x768, even though the card can do full hd [17:01] what is the problem? [17:02] wohnpc: monitor is also 1080p, right? [17:02] just checking [17:02] yes [17:03] a driver manager replacement was moved into systemsettings, look for it and the Monitor setup called KScreen (also in systemsettings) [17:04] I am in driver management now, but it is just a gray screen [17:04] no options are offered [17:05] also in the repository, no nvdia drivers appear, I went to the nvidia website, they say you have to turn off the graphics and be in a shell... well if I do ctrl-alt-f1, I just get a black screen [17:06] this sux [17:07] wohnpc: it should be a logon shell [17:07] oh wait [17:07] wohnpc: do you have kubuntu-restricted-extras enabled [17:08] wohnpc, which nvidia card ? [17:09] gtx 745 [17:09] yeah, but there is no logon shell [17:09] odd [17:09] wohnpc: ctrl+alt+f2-6 [17:10] also, why is the screen resolution so low? [17:10] try those [17:10] same thing [17:10] wohnpc: driver error [17:10] prolly [17:10] the nouveau drivers suck, no matter wat [17:10] hmm, wohnpc here [17:10] have you downloaded the driver from the site? [17:10] yeah, but I cannot install it because I can't get to s a shell... [17:10] you may need to boot with nomodeset to get a real console [17:10] a shell [17:10] wohnpc: alright [17:11] I tried booting, but there are no boot options.. how do I boot into a prompt? [17:11] reboot, go into advanced options for kubuntu/ubuntu (whichever is applicable), and go into recovery mode [17:11] then, when the menu appears [17:11] it boots straight into the login screen! [17:12] wohnpc: edit grub.cfg [17:12] locate grub.cfg in konsole [17:12] /boot/grub/grub.cfg [17:12] kdesudo kate [17:13] okay, so I opened it [17:13] wohnpc: as sudo? [17:13] isn't there an escape key ? [17:13] yes [17:13] TheFakeazneD525: That is not the file you want to edit, you want /etc/grub.d/* or /etc/default/grub [17:13] omg [17:13] why did they remove the "safe mode" option?= [17:14] it says "do not edit this file" [17:14] wohnpc: ignore that [17:14] ctr+f, timeout [17:14] and set that to something large [17:15] it's -1 now [17:15] so I set it to 20 [17:15] good [17:15] now save it [17:15] and then as sudo [17:15] wohnpc, TheFakeazneD525: You want /etc/default/grub for the time out. /boot/grub/grub.cfg is generated by update-grub2 so edits will be lost with the next update of the kernel. [17:15] run update-grub [17:15] also, apt-get install dkms [17:16] okay, so I rebootz [17:16] what is dkms [17:16] kernel module thingy [17:16] update-grub will undo any changes you made in that file [17:17] I was trying to tell them that... === dv__ is now known as dv_ [17:17] true... it is at -1 again [17:17] er, I was mistaken, edit the one in etc [17:17] but why isn't there a more simple way to start in recovery mode??!? [17:18] I'd almost go back to windows 8.1 again, which was on the pc when I bought it yesterday! [17:18] wohnpc: Oh is that all, hold shift while booting. [17:18] That'll drop you to the grub menu. [17:18] oh wow, I didn't know that [17:18] what were you trying to accomplish [17:18] wohnpc, then after all that sudo apt-get install nvidia-331 [17:19] or if you want to install the more recent driver from teh site [17:19] fsck, then select root [17:19] why doesn't that appear in muon when I search for it? [17:19] after that, navigate to where you stored the driver === rolf is now known as rolf_ === rolf_ is now known as rolf === rolf is now known as Guest92708 [17:21] ah probably because the package manager is not even installed after a fresh install.... [17:21] too bad I couldn't get mint to run.... probably also because the nvidia drviers were not installed standard [17:22] shouldn't I install nvidia current??! [17:23] wohnpc: yes [17:23] nouveau isn't so bad, at least it worked ok on 13.10 on my older desktop with 8400gs card [17:23] why 331 and not nvidia current? [17:23] idk [17:24] wohnpc, with yopur card the 331 driver is most likely the current driver anyway [17:24] nvidia-current is just a metapackage that installs the most current version of the driver [17:24] yup [17:25] so I install nvidia current now [17:26] hmmm.... it is choosing nvidia 304 here [17:26] wohnpc, which kubuntu version/ [17:26] which OS ? [17:27] i'm on trusty and the latest i have in the repos is 311 [17:27] 310, sorry [17:27] kubuntu 14.04 [17:27] odd that 304 is the current driver for that card [17:28] on the nvidia website there is a brand new one.. but I try this one [17:28] so how do I activate it now? [17:28] in the driver manager. still there is nothing.. [17:28] best to try the recommended [17:29] install nvidia-current [17:29] just did [17:29] nothing changed [17:29] ok , gotta go run some errands , BBL [17:30] you may have to reboot before it shows up in the driver manager, but not sure [17:31] or do I have to start the driver manager with root privileges= [17:31] but how? [17:31] I also install the current-update packages now [17:31] Have you restarted after installing the driver? [17:31] yes [17:31] this is a nightmare [17:32] Can you pastebin the output of "lspci -k|grep -A2 VGA"? [17:32] no such pci acces method# [17:32] or sudo? [17:33] no such pci acces method [17:33] Hmm, you shouldn't need root for that. [17:33] I am going to restart again [17:34] I still don't understand why standard resolution is only 1024x768 [17:34] nothing.... [17:35] wohnpc: is this on a new computer or one you just upgraded? [17:35] Does "lspci -k" give you anything? [17:36] yes... [17:36] vga compatible controller nvidia corp gm107 geforce gtx 745 rev a2 [17:36] Can you pastebin that, please. [17:36] how do I pastebin [17:37] !pastebin [17:37] For posting multi-line texts into the channel, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use http://imagebin.org/?page=add | !pastebinit to paste directly from command line | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic. [17:38] past.ubuntu.com/7405808 [17:38] paste.ubuntu.com/7405808 [17:38] No driver is loaded. [17:38] well.... yeah... that is my problem [17:38] That is the reason for the low resolution. [17:40] yes, but why doesnt't the driver manager allow me to install the drivers I downloaded.. in kubuntu 12.04 you could just go there and click there to activate them [17:40] I am now going to try the shift on bootup thing and intstall with the script from the nvidia website [17:41] if that does not work I will revert to windows 8.1 and try to live with it [17:41] wohnpc: Disable whatever driver you have now first. [17:41] can you imagine.. 8.1 [17:41] how? [17:42] the shift on bootup does not give me a prommpot [17:42] the shift on bootup does not give me a prompt [17:43] Remove/purge the nvidia packages. [17:43] why? [17:43] Because they may conflict with a manual install. (Something gave me the idea you where going to try that) [17:43] well... I just told you... [17:44] one moment [17:44] you will not believe this [17:44] I just switched from hdmi to DVI and all of a sudden the resolution is very high now!! [17:45] Check the driver [17:45] Is it 'nvidia'? [17:46] no [17:46] still the same [17:46] probably the hdmi port is not supported by the standard driver [17:47] Ok, ill try to install realtek drivers, and for sure i destroy my system again. [17:47] I am not going to edit x.org files to tell it to use the nvidia driver.... [17:47] Wish me luck [17:47] I wish you luck [17:47] it's very weird that it won't load the nvidia driver [17:47] wohnpc: Just wondering, what happens when you try to modprobe it? [17:49] how do I do that [17:52] try sudo modprobe nvidia [17:52] you can press tab after typing nvidia to expand to an available kernel module [17:55] I am doing the manual install now... to see how that goes [17:56] when that does not work... I see no possibilities anymore... but to revert to windows 8.1... at least I get dual mointor support there!!! [17:57] Nouveau doesn't support that? [17:59] is it possible that the driver from the repos doesn't support that card? [17:59] allright.. so now the driver is installed.... [17:59] kubuntu is supposed to do this though!!! [18:00] this is medieval.... [18:00] so now I try the hdmi again.. one moment.. will probably fail! [18:02] holy shit!!!!! [18:02] I can not believe this!!!! [18:03] without further fiddling and tweaking I now have dual monitor support in Kubuntu!!!! [18:03] that's the way it's supposed to be :) [18:03] so that means [18:03] that the driver from the repositories doesn't support your card yet [18:03] well.. thanks to the closed source coders of nvidia that is.. not thanks to ubuntu [18:03] well.... what takes them so long... they have been out for weeks... [18:03] man... [18:04] Another happy soul [18:04] But im condemned with my sound card [18:04] y4ns: what kind of sound card? [18:05] Realtet alc269 [18:05] Realtek* [18:05] Ill try to install drivers right now. [18:05] Let's see what happens [18:06]
