georgelappieshi guys, just want to report back that I got that tearing issue sorted out in KDE, followed this post: https://www.kubuntuforums.net/showthread.php?63946-No-vertical-sync-with-NVIDIA09:06
georgelappiesand it is related to this bug: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=32206009:06
ubottuKDE bug 322060 in scene-opengl "Synced swapping on double buffered nvidia GPUs cause high CPU load" [Normal,Unconfirmed]09:06
georgelappiesis it possible to include this "fix/workaround" automagically in kubuntu so that others using nvidia cards (of which I imagine there exists a few) will also have no extreme tearing in the desktop?09:07
georgelappiesif it is possible, is there something I can do from myside to help with this? will really like to make a contribution to this excellent os :)09:08
valoriegeorgelappies: have you commented on the bug?09:14
valoriethat is the best way to use your information in a helpful way09:15
georgelappieshi valorie, I did: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=322060#c9509:16
ubottuKDE bug 322060 in scene-opengl "Synced swapping on double buffered nvidia GPUs cause high CPU load" [Normal,Unconfirmed]09:16
georgelappiesvalorie: the problem is that first I thought that KDE was broken for some reason as I did not have this issue in GNOME or Unity, and it took me sometime to get to this fix via the interwebs09:17
valorieexcellent09:17
valoriewe do use the info from the bugs to fix stuff09:18
valorieas that is a KDE bug however, that will be taken up by the KDE maintainer, not us09:18
valorieus as in kubuntu-devels09:19
georgelappiesa lot of people will just not search for the fix as they will think that KDE is working as intended...09:19
valorieI'm not sure who maintains the gpu stuff; perhaps if you hang around the europeans will come online and tell you09:19
valoriekeep in mind it is Sunday morning for them, so they might be in later than usual09:20
georgelappieswill do thanks :)09:20
valoriebest of luck09:20

ubottuLaunchpad bug 1357907 in Ubuntu "fira font needs-packaging" [Undecided,New]09:54
valorieand with that I'm off for the night09:55
kdeuser56Riddell: the iso from here: http://files.kde.org/snapshots/neon5-latest.iso.mirrorlist works in virtualbox09:56
kdeuser56Riddell: but not that one: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/kubuntu-plasma5/daily-live/current/09:57
kdeuser56Riddell: I am almost sure the second one wont work for you too ... I have tested many version of virtualbox including all proprietary extensions and many settings ... the second iso wont boot to desktop, it looks like the screenshot I provided last time09:58
Mamarokwhoa, what happened here, half of the kde apps are marked to be removed? All of kdegames as it seems...11:48
lordievaderGood afternoon.12:16
yofelMamarok: log please? I don't think anyone did something the last couple days after .9712:48
Mamarokwhich log exactly?12:52
yofelMamarok: if you haven't upgraded yet 'sudo apt-get -o debug::pkgproblemresolver=1 dist-upgrade'12:53
yofelor well, I would need at least the exact version of the package that's going to be removed, otherwise I have no idea where to look12:53
Mamarokwell, I didn't remove anything, but I got the mention there was stuff to remove, and the baloo-dbg package is being held back12:53
Mamarokand my last update was 2 days ago in the evening12:54
yofelutopic + ninjas maybe? That has WIP 4.14.0 packages that jr was working on12:54
Mamarokhm, I am still on Trusty12:55
Mamaroklet me check if this is some conflicting PPA12:55
MamarokI have ppa, next, backports and beta, thos shouldn't conflict?12:57
yofelprobably not... although next now only has packages for utopic, so maybe something old from next and new from backports conflicts12:58
yofelat least I'm pretty sure it's untested12:58
Mamarokthat's what the command yields: http://paste.kde.org/pzlmovn1s13:00
yofelok thanks, that helps13:01
yofelnow lets see if I can figure out why it does that..13:01
kfunkstupid question: how do I change the lightdm theme to the plasma5-based one when using project neon?13:05
yofeluh okay, we'll need a transitional package for baloo, otherwise it's not even updated on upgrade :S13:05
yofelMamarok: I'll fix that, thanks for the report13:05
yofelMamarok: just in case, please make sure that kubuntu-desktop is still installed before anything more gets removed by accident13:21
yofelkfunk: I'm not sure how neon is set up, someone else might be answer that more accurately, but AFAIK it uses sddm, not lightdm and we have no plasma5 theme for lightdm13:25
yofel*be able13:25
BluesKaj'Morning folks13:28
Mamarokyofel: it is installed13:43
yofelRiddell: please check if ^ messes with kf5, I didn't test that13:54
92AAAK3JElive-config package is broken btw15:10
92AAAK3JE3.0.23-1+deb8u115:11
yofelplease file a bug on launchpad, that's not something we maintain15:11
92AAAK3JEdone so... hope for a quick fix15:29
