sandman13 | should I install Kubuntu or Debian 7 with KDE? | 03:27 |
sandman13 | should I install Kubuntu or Debian 7 with KDE? | 03:40 |
genii | In the #kubuntu channel, we'll likely say Kubuntu. In the #debian channel they'll likely say Debian 7 with KDE. | 03:42 |
sandman13 | I am having a hard time choosing among these two | 03:44 |
silv3r_m00n | the driver manager tool in system settings, what is the command to launch it ? | 04:16 |
valorie | hi, TheFakeazneD525 | 04:22 |
valorie | thank you! | 04:22 |
TheFakeazneD525 | np | 04:22 |
TheFakeazneD525 | silv3r_m00n: just type drivers into krunner and you should see something | 04:23 |
silv3r_m00n | TheFakeazneD525: yeah, it does, how do i know the command name ? | 04:24 |
TheFakeazneD525 | hmm... | 04:25 |
TheFakeazneD525 | onesec | 04:25 |
TheFakeazneD525 | silv3r_m00n: er, why do you need the specific command, just asking | 04:27 |
valorie | I just did an apt-cache search, and don't see any likely package names to invoke | 04:27 |
silv3r_m00n | TheFakeazneD525: i think, the krunner method will do | 04:29 |
TheFakeazneD525 | ah, ok | 04:30 |
valorie | darn, the person who needed bumblebee is gone | 04:31 |
valorie | !optimus | 04:31 |
ubottu | The Bumblebee Project aims to support NVIDIA Optimus technology under Linux. The Bumblebee website can be found at http://bumblebee-project.org/ | 04:31 |
TheFakeazneD525 | valorie: ah yes, optimus | 04:31 |
TheFakeazneD525 | another nVidia technology that makes the shift from Windows to *nix harder >_ | 04:32 |
TheFakeazneD525 | Their products are good, don't get me wrong | 04:32 |
valorie | oh well, they will find it somehow, i hope | 04:32 |
TheFakeazneD525 | but their stance on Linux is totally backwards | 04:32 |
valorie | of course | 04:32 |
valorie | they look at the bottom line, instead of to the future | 04:32 |
TheFakeazneD525 | valorie: I think Linus puts it best https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iYWzMvlj2RQ | 04:33 |

TheFakeazneD525 | valorie: so, someone is having problems with their Xorg, most likely a driver problem... and they're not sure if networking is up... | 06:49 |
TheFakeazneD525 | and now they say the keyboard isn't working | 06:50 |
valorie | oh lord | 06:50 |
TheFakeazneD525 | 2006 toaster | 06:50 |
TheFakeazneD525 | valorie: fresh install, no PPAs, literally installed minutes ago | 06:50 |
valorie | was the ISO verified? | 06:50 |
TheFakeazneD525 | valorie: Unetbootin install | 06:51 |
valorie | ok, but checked? | 06:51 |
valorie | !checksum | 06:51 |
ubottu | To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows | 06:51 |
valorie | AND did the livesession have problems? | 06:51 |
TheFakeazneD525 | im... not sure if unetbootin does... | 06:51 |
TheFakeazneD525 | valorie: they directly installed iirc | 06:51 |
TheFakeazneD525 | valorie: http://i60.tinypic.com/2a9nqcl.jpg | 06:53 |
TheFakeazneD525 | thats what they got before install | 06:54 |
valorie | and then they went ahead and did it? | 06:54 |
valorie | yikes | 06:54 |
TheFakeazneD525 | valorie: er, it somehow fixed itself | 06:55 |
valorie | ok...... | 06:55 |
valorie | what version did they install? | 06:55 |
TheFakeazneD525 | then, when they rebooted, it broke, and the second time, keyboard didn't work and black screen | 06:55 |
TheFakeazneD525 | valorie: 14.04 LTS | 06:55 |
valorie | gads | 06:55 |
TheFakeazneD525 | good ole Trusty | 06:55 |
TheFakeazneD525 | valorie: should I give them an older ISO? | 06:55 |
valorie | well, I would try 12.04 | 06:55 |
valorie | you are asking like I'm some kind of expert! | 06:56 |
valorie | lol | 06:56 |
TheFakeazneD525 | you're more so than me D: | 06:56 |
valorie | given that it is an older computer | 06:56 |
TheFakeazneD525 | and I'll suggest 12.04 | 06:56 |
valorie | I would try the older install, and see how it goes | 06:56 |
valorie | my 6 year old laptop was OK with 14.04 | 06:56 |
valorie | but who knows | 06:56 |
TheFakeazneD525 | also... it has nVidia | 06:57 |

rvdv | ovidiu-florin: would like to know the answer to that too ... seems this issue already exists for a few years. Maybe you can add a samba printer through the webinterface from CUPS http://localhost:631/ | 09:58 |

sandman13 | Kubuntu is not hosted by Canonical? | 10:57 |
lordievader | sandman13: Hosted? | 10:57 |
lordievader | Lots of Kubuntu things are on Canonical servers, if that is what you mean. | 10:58 |
sandman13 | lordievader: supported like Ubuntu | 10:58 |
sandman13 | ? | 10:58 |
sandman13 | or is Kubuntu developed by Canonical like Ubuntu? | 10:58 |
lordievader | sandman13: No, Kubuntu's devels are payed by Bluesystems. | 11:00 |
sandman13 | lordievader: I am asking because I can't decide whether I switch to Debian 7 with KDE or Kubuntu, I have tried both but can't decide. My knowledge with linux is somewhat intermediate | 11:02 |
lordievader | How would this influence that descision? | 11:02 |
sandman13 | I don't like Canonical so | 11:03 |
lordievader | To each his own, but without Canonical Kubuntu wouldn't exist ;) | 11:04 |
sandman13 | yeah true | 11:05 |
ovidiu-florin | rvdv: there is no browse function in the web interface | 11:43 |
ovidiu-florin | and if I try the gnome version I get this when attempting to start it http://paste.kde.org/psxqehqv3/yflueb | 11:43 |

Walex | sandman13: The various Ubuntu flavours are just different sets of packages from the very same archives for the same distribution. | 12:09 |
Walex | sandman13: and Canonical even if sometimes they are a bit too clever are a force for good overall. | 12:10 |

markit | anyone has dolphin find (^f) (filename search) working? Without baloo it gives "protocol error", with baloo it just does not find anything. I've kde 4.13.0 backport in kubuntu 12.04, but also in a netbook with kubuntu 14.04 I've a similar problem | 13:07 |
=== henrik is now known as hubelibub | ||
hubelibub | hi! what are your favorite kde apps? | 13:09 |
average_guy | choqok and digikam are what attracted me to KDE hubelibub | 13:16 |
hubelibub | i really like digikam. and also kdenlive | 13:21 |
hubelibub | i'll try choqok :) | 13:23 |
markit | found a solution. If you set baloo to ignore /home, it uses "old" filesearch that works fine :) | 13:35 |
Walex | markit: that's rather peculiar... But helpful | 14:01 |
Walex | as to KDE apps, aKregator and Konversation are very good, as well as basKet. Gwenview I also like. of course Konqueror too. | 14:02 |
Walex | I used to like KMail and Kontact in general in KDE3. | 14:05 |
Walex | Calligra is good, and I like Karbon and Krita too. | 14:06 |
rberg_ | Hi all. I am not sure how this all works so I will ask. do the packages from the kubuntu-updates ppa ever make it into the regular updates? as in if I wait will 4.13.1 become available without adding a ppa? | 14:15 |
=== kevin is now known as Guest58800 | ||
BluesKaj | rberg_, eventually yes, just enable the backports for new kde releases | 14:19 |
rberg_ | cool. thanks! | 14:21 |
=== yoyo_ is now known as yoyo | ||
Walex | rberg_: that's not a good question. | 14:43 |
Walex | rberg_: and BluesKaj's answer is a bit off the target. | 14:43 |
Walex | rberg_: the questions you should be asking is "What is Ubuntu's policy for package version upgrades by release?" | 14:43 |
BluesKaj | yeah , I should have said , kubuntu-backports | 14:44 |
rberg_ | Walex: sure.. that sounds like what I was asking.. I am trying to avoid PPA's this time around | 14:44 |
Walex | rberg_: the overall policy is that to get newer versions of a package you must upgrade to a new version. | 14:46 |
Walex | rberg_: so 4.13.1 will surely end up in some current or future version of Kubuntu. | 14:47 |
rberg_ | heh | 14:47 |
Walex | rberg_: then as <BluesKaj> was saying sometimes stuff appears magically in the backports archive. | 14:47 |
rberg_ | will it end up in 14.04 more specifically? | 14:47 |
Walex | rberg_: 14.04 is already released and IIRC it has 4.13, not sure about 4.13.1 | 14:48 |
BluesKaj | no kidding , why else would kde upgrades be developed ? :) | 14:48 |
rberg_ | I was not sure if point releases get into the official repos.. I assume 4.14 wont (if there is one) | 14:49 |
Walex | rberg_: but basically Ubuntu/Kubuntu like Debian are "stable" releases. The difference between LTS and the others is just the length of support. | 14:49 |
Walex | rberg_: 4.14 when it happens may end up in Kubuntu 14.10 for example. | 14:49 |
doctorpepper | hi guys !! | 14:50 |
doctorpepper | has anyone been able to make pam-kwallet work on kubuntu 12.04 ? | 14:51 |
=== ecks2 is now known as away | ||
BluesKaj | doctorpepper, not many using 12.04 anymore, and sorry I can't help with wallet apps, since I don't use them. | 15:14 |
doctorpepper | bluejack, actually the version of kubuntu is not a problem as far as i understand the issue i have has to do with pam more than anything else. | 15:16 |
doctorpepper | i actually compiled and installed pam-kwallet and tried to configure pam but failed. | 15:18 |

hyper_ch | Hi there, since 14.04 I have big problems with USB 3.0. I get slow speeds and my load skyrockets massively.... and right now I just noticed that xhci- isn't even loaded | 15:50 |
hyper_ch | I modprobed xhci-hcd - no error... but when I lsmod afterwards, still nothing loaded | 15:51 |
BluesKaj | hyper_ch, where are you copying from and to where? | 15:53 |
BluesKaj | what kinds of files, encrypted? | 15:54 |
hyper_ch | root system is encrypted of course | 15:54 |
hyper_ch | why? | 15:54 |
BluesKaj | encryption slows copy speeds afaik | 15:55 |
hyper_ch | why would encryption slow copying? | 15:55 |
hyper_ch | but copying 4GB of data from an encrpyted SSD on a cpu with aes-ni to usb 3.0 disk shouldn't take 5 minutes | 15:56 |
hyper_ch | and as said, xhci-hcd isn't even loaded according to lsmod | 15:56 |
BluesKaj | dunno, not familiar with xhci-hcd | 15:57 |
hyper_ch | that's the usb 3.0 kernel mod | 15:57 |
hyper_ch | hyper@subi:~$ sudo modprobe xhci-hcd ; lsmod | grep xhci | 15:58 |
hyper_ch | hyper@subi:~$ | 15:58 |
