afinkHello everyone, I am having an issue with dolphin where I am not able to see remote (ftp) files.  At the bottom it says 0 files 0 folders, however when I ftp in via the command line everything shows just fine.  Has anyone else experienced this?  Any fix available?00:20
afinkactually it looks like dolphin isn't prompting me for the password00:29
afinkhmm... reboot solved it.00:39

tatieupgrade failed from 12.04 - what now? when doing the upgrade i started it and left it do it's work. when i came back about 20% was installed and then it said it needed to close kdm in order to continue. i though ok fine i do not need desktop at this time anyway. so i said go ahead (Y) it threw me in tty1 and that was it. when i loged in and checked the processes it appeared nothing was upgrading. i reboot and ofcourse now it doesn't boot17:54
tatieanymore17:54
tatieso now what?=17:54
=== tatie is now known as gregor3000
gregor3000i tried booting form DVD to do a reinstall of 14.04 over 12.04 but it didn't boot. i dont' htink this PC can boot from DVD. hmm...17:55
IsaacTBest-_-18:03
BluesKajgregor3000, make sure your cdrom is first in the boot sequence in the BIOS18:10
gregor3000it is... it doesn't boot. i mean it starts booting but then itall stops with blinking cursor18:11
gregor3000i am now atempting to restart the upgrade via recovery mode18:11
gregor3000i enabled networking now fsck is running18:12
gregor3000how long does this take? i just want to tun network on to start uptade and upgrade commands from atp-get18:12
lordievadergregor3000: Depends on the size of the disk and how much of it is toast.18:14
gregor3000there we go disk stopped working nothing happened.18:14
gregor3000linux parittion is 20 GB the rest is about 120GB18:14
gregor3000in FAT3218:15
gregor3000i am gettign nowhere with this recovery console. if i just go to root and start the update it says that it can't access the server.s btw it actualyl doens't need to get the servers does it? io mean it already downloaded the packageds in previous proces18:16
lordievaderTheoretically, but perhaps some of the packages where corrupted, it is best to proceed with a network connection.18:17
gregor3000the problem is the mounting of filesystem doens't happen. fsck is running, disk is working forsoem time then it just stops18:20
gregor3000nothing get's mounted18:20
lordievadergregor3000: What happens when you manually mount it?18:21
gregor3000i am just searching for commands to do it it is my next step18:21
lordievaderDrop to a root shell: mount -o remount,rw /18:22
gregor3000now it says already mounted or / busy18:23
gregor3000acroding to mtab /dev/sda2 is already mounted on root18:24
lordievaderAlso read-write mounted? Or read-only?18:24
gregor3000read only18:24
gregor3000that's what is says when i try to run dpkg18:25
gregor3000hold on i just saw it's a comma. i definitely need new glasses18:26
gregor3000ok here we go18:26
gregor3000dpkg configure running18:26
gregor3000errors dependency problems...18:27
gregor3000but i doubt i will be able to run the update since there is no netowrk when i dropped to root18:27
gregor3000right?18:27
=== sign is now known as hexagon
lordievadergregor3000: That is why I added '-o remount,rw' to the mount command ;)18:28
gregor3000N18:29
=== hexagon is now known as sign
gregor3000yeah but i didnt' spot the comma betweek remount and rw i though it was a fullstop18:30
gregor3000ok so now what? reboot? if i try update still no connection, while the upgrade has unmet dependencies18:32
lordievadergregor3000: No, now that the disk is mounted rw you set up an internet connection. Do you use a cable?18:32
gregor3000yes18:33
lordievaderOk, great: ip l s eth0 up&&dhclient eth018:33
=== ian_ is now known as IsaacTBest
gregor3000rtnetlink asnwers: File exists18:39
gregor3000and no wi continue...18:39
lordievaderDo you have an internet connection? Try pinging  8.8.8.818:40
gregor3000it appears so, update command now executed, but upgrade still says it has unment dependencies an dsuggests to use -f18:40
gregor3000is it safe to use -f?18:41
lordievaderJup, that would be the next step: apt-get -f install18:43
gregor3000upgrade -f or -f install?18:43
lordievaderapt-get upgrade doesn18:44
lordievaderdoesn't know the -f flag. So apt-get install -f18:44
gregor3000ok running upgrade -f18:44
gregor3000then normal upgrade suddenly is running. let's see what comes out18:44
lordievaderErm, you should run 'apt-get install -f'.18:45

IsaacTBestHELP I ACCIDENTLY DELETE MY VMLINUZ18:58
lordievaderIsaacTBest: Don't reboot and reinstall the kernel.18:58
IsaacTBestok.. iam panicing.. what should i do!18:59
lordievaderIsaacTBest: Reinstall the package 'linux-image-generic'.19:02
IsaacTBestok sir..19:03
lordievaderThis is the reason sudo exists...19:03
IsaacTBestbut how?19:03
lordievaderIsaacTBest: sudo apt-get install --reinstall linux-image-generic (possibly replace linux-image-generic with the latest version if it just reinstalls the meta package.)19:04

gregor3000wow upgrade already ifnished however it boots into TTY1 hmmm how to load desktop in kde? what is controling the startup screen?19:18
bprompt_gregor3000:    try maybe -> startx19:19
gregor3000no it doesn't work. i will install kubuntu desktop package perhaps a part is missing19:19
lordievadergregor3000: What error does 'startx' give?19:20
gregor3000i forgot. it seems that some parts of Kubuntu desktop package are missing it is now installing and it will install abotu 192 MB of data :-)19:21
gregor3000darn it i see only now how my computers are really old.... i am doing another maintenance - cloning the bad widnows XP disk formatted as FAT 32 onto a brand new 1TB drive.i hopoe that one works as well as the remianing free space get's Kubuntu as well.19:23
gregor3000anyway just saw they have 2 time tranfer rate nowadays, and the CPU's people are suign are already 300% or more powerful than mine. even the office "variants" :-)19:23
=== McLive_ is now known as McLive
gregor3000heh loading now only i wonder what else is not installed19:33
caipartition manager won't let me format my sd card at all, only make new partiotn table19:34
caigparted, same issue but i can make ntfs/ext partitions.... but i need fat3219:34
gregor3000isn't the one on SD cards called exFAT or something like that?19:35
caiI don't think linux even supports exfat19:35
caiand i have to use fat32 anyways19:36
lordievadercai: Linux supports exfat just fine, can you pastebin "sudo fdisk -l /dev/<sdcard>"?19:37
gregor3000hmm the grub menu still shows old kernel 3.2 :-) and now porgrams are being upgraded....19:38
caihttp://paste.ubuntu.com/7506929/19:38
caiIt's a small SD card for firmware.19:39
=== agent_smith is now known as Guest23112
lordievaderWow, 14 mb? Anyhow what happens when you try to make partitions with parted?19:40
caiit lets me make ntfs and ext, fat16/32 is greyed out19:40
caibut i  have dosfstools on since it's a stock package19:41
lordievadercai: parted != gparted ;)19:41
cai14MB of delicious SLC flash, still... i don't get why kde part amanger refusts to make any FS and gparted won't do fat19:42
gregor3000ok it's upgrading the kernel now19:43
lordievaderBy the by, if you can make empty partitions that is fine too. I kind of agree with parted on that, a partition manager shouldn't make filesystems.19:45
gregor3000excelent it is now all finsihed. time to go to sleep thank you all for the help provided.20:42
lordievadergregor3000: Everything works again?20:45
keithzgIs there a way to get a list of the names of all installed/available plasmoids? Trying to launch the network manager plasmoid with plasma-windowed (so just that name would be useful too, admittedly, but it'd be useful to be able to do this myself in the future).21:00
keithzgAha, plasmapkg --list21:24
keithzg(I've been seeing a lot of crashes lately that seem possibly graphics-related, so I've gone over to Openbox on my work computer for now.)21:25
ToastCould someone try saving a wallet from kwalletmanager then reimporting it please? I've done this, but it's not accepting my password to open the wallet.21:26
keithzgToast: Last time I had to to that, I swear it didn't work at all and I instead just copy-pasted it into the right folder and gave it a different name, and *then* it worked.21:26
Toastkeithzg: So import didn't work, but replacing your existing file did?21:27
ToastOK, will have to reboot to try that. Thanks.21:30
Joe87654hello21:35
Joe87654hello, i am transfering GBs of files between 2 kubuntu 14.04 machines over samba. i woulld like to lock my machines andd do something else while transfering. the transfer stops though when i lock  the screen. is there away to make it continue transfering while locked?21:39
keithzgFirstly, that's very strange that that happens. Secondly, I'd personally recommend using sftp (or even better, rsync, if you're even remotely comfortable with the command line) for transferring files between two Kubuntu machines (both faster and less likely to suffer any sort of loss of data one way or another).21:42

=== fokof is now known as willywonka
Joe87654thanks for answering keith. i thought it was strange too.21:47
Joe87654a different program stops also when i locked the screen. i was recording a webcam with vlc but it stops recording when scren is locked. so im guesing kubuntu is stopping programs when the screens locked. doesnt make sense to me21:50
