[09:00] congratulations ScottK on your first commit! [09:00] * valorie also made some commits this past week [09:00] \o/ [09:06] hi 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-NVIDIA [09:06] and it is related to this bug: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=322060 [09:06] KDE bug 322060 in scene-opengl "Synced swapping on double buffered nvidia GPUs cause high CPU load" [Normal,Unconfirmed] [09:07] is 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? [09:08] if 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 :) [09:14] georgelappies: have you commented on the bug? [09:15] that is the best way to use your information in a helpful way [09:16] hi valorie, I did: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=322060#c95 [09:16] KDE bug 322060 in scene-opengl "Synced swapping on double buffered nvidia GPUs cause high CPU load" [Normal,Unconfirmed] [09:17] valorie: 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 interwebs [09:17] excellent [09:18] we do use the info from the bugs to fix stuff [09:18] as that is a KDE bug however, that will be taken up by the KDE maintainer, not us [09:19] us as in kubuntu-devels [09:19] a lot of people will just not search for the fix as they will think that KDE is working as intended... [09:19] I'm not sure who maintains the gpu stuff; perhaps if you hang around the europeans will come online and tell you [09:20] keep in mind it is Sunday morning for them, so they might be in later than usual [09:20] will do thanks :) [09:20] best of luck [09:20] * valorie is about to go to bed, as here it is 2am [09:20] It is Sunday morning 11:20 here in South Africa atm as well 8-) [09:20] ok [09:21] thanks valorie, enjoy the rest ;-) [09:54] Riddell: bug reported [09:54] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1357907 [09:54] Launchpad bug 1357907 in Ubuntu "fira font needs-packaging" [Undecided,New] [09:55] and with that I'm off for the night [09:56] Riddell: the iso from here: http://files.kde.org/snapshots/neon5-latest.iso.mirrorlist works in virtualbox [09:57] Riddell: but not that one: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/kubuntu-plasma5/daily-live/current/ [09:58] Riddell: 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 time [11:48] whoa, what happened here, half of the kde apps are marked to be removed? All of kdegames as it seems... [12:16] Good afternoon. [12:48] Mamarok: log please? I don't think anyone did something the last couple days after .97 [12:52] which log exactly? [12:53] Mamarok: if you haven't upgraded yet 'sudo apt-get -o debug::pkgproblemresolver=1 dist-upgrade' [12:53] or 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 look [12:53] well, I didn't remove anything, but I got the mention there was stuff to remove, and the baloo-dbg package is being held back [12:54] and my last update was 2 days ago in the evening [12:54] utopic + ninjas maybe? That has WIP 4.14.0 packages that jr was working on [12:55] hm, I am still on Trusty [12:55] let me check if this is some conflicting PPA [12:57] I have ppa, next, backports and beta, thos shouldn't conflict? [12:58] probably not... although next now only has packages for utopic, so maybe something old from next and new from backports conflicts [12:58] at least I'm pretty sure it's untested [13:00] that's what the command yields: http://paste.kde.org/pzlmovn1s [13:01] ok thanks, that helps [13:01] now lets see if I can figure out why it does that.. [13:05] stupid question: how do I change the lightdm theme to the plasma5-based one when using project neon? [13:05] uh okay, we'll need a transitional package for baloo, otherwise it's not even updated on upgrade :S [13:05] Mamarok: I'll fix that, thanks for the report [13:21] Mamarok: just in case, please make sure that kubuntu-desktop is still installed before anything more gets removed by accident [13:25] kfunk: 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 lightdm [13:25] *be able [13:28] 'Morning folks [13:43] yofel: it is installed [13:54] Riddell: please check if ^ messes with kf5, I didn't test that [15:10] <92AAAK3JE> live-config package is broken btw [15:11] <92AAAK3JE> 3.0.23-1+deb8u1 [15:11] please file a bug on launchpad, that's not something we maintain [15:29] <92AAAK3JE> done so... hope for a quick fix [21:40] we are batman [21:40] http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2014/08/justice-league-linux-distros-superheroes [21:40] *batmen [21:40] and catwomen [21:44] lolwhat :D [21:45] maybe we should resurrect the batcave to give justice to the title ^^ [21:45] ^^ [21:46] * shadeslayer_ heads to bed [21:46] nini [21:46] or do I ..... ? [21:46] because [21:46] I am *batman*! [21:57] shadeslayer_: did you get much of the book read yet? [21:58] also, you have a tail [21:58] oops, missed the 'heading to bed' bit
