zartoosh | HI I am getting this error during installation of my debian packages; "libc6-i386 : Depends: libc6 (= 2.19-0ubuntu6.1) but 2.19-0ubuntu6.3 is to be installed" | 00:08 |
---|---|---|
zartoosh | why please help? | 00:08 |

valorie | zartoosh: you can try `sudo apt-get -f install` | 01:03 |
valorie | which will force it | 01:03 |
zxq9 | Ugh. Why does the Japanese local adhere to outdated Windows standards by default? Backslashes have yen mark glyphs in several fonts, jis7 instead of utf-8, etc. :-/ | 04:02 |
zxq9 | I think Ubuntu is the only distro that behaves like this in ja-JP locale. | 04:03 |
valorie | very strange | 04:05 |
valorie | please file a bug zxq9 | 04:06 |
valorie | best way is `ubuntu-bug locale` in the commandline | 04:06 |
zxq9 | I'm almost certain the response will be "that's a feature" -- but I'll file it anyway. | 04:07 |
valorie | it doesn't sound like a feature to you, or to me | 04:08 |
blahblahblah99 | anyone here | 05:08 |
blahblahblah99 | Hi could anyone help me my kubuntu kde x64 issue please | 05:08 |
blahblahblah99 | Or can anyone point me in the right direction to fix my issue. Its about my video card? | 05:13 |
valorie | blahblahblah99: can you give more detail? | 05:17 |
blahblahblah99 | Valorie yes I can | 05:18 |
blahblahblah99 | So I have laptop with the GeForce 8200M G in it and I installed Kubuntu KDE x64. So my screen or desktop is huge and I'm trying to get it to normal. When I type a command in terminal it reads the GeForce 8200M G but in the "Driver Manager" it reads GeForce 9200M G. I'm guessing that's the issue. I also have not found anything that helped on line, but I'm also a newbie with linux. | 05:21 |
blahblahblah99 | I'm just looking for steps or command to do. I don't want to install ubuntu, and I really wanted to use OpenSuse but samething although suse felt way too savy for me. But i'm liking the Kubuntu just stuck, I appreciate it ""Valorie"" for your time. | 05:24 |
valorie | !nvidia | 05:26 |
ubottu | For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VideoDriverHowto | 05:26 |
valorie | pfff | 05:26 |
valorie | there it is | 05:27 |
blahblahblah99 | tha's the link? | 05:27 |
valorie | blahblahblah99: I've found a lot of help in the above link | 05:27 |
blahblahblah99 | "Valorie" where in the link, so sorry I also can't read | 05:30 |
valorie | For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VideoDriverHowto <<< blahblahblah99 | 05:31 |
blahblahblah99 | "Valorie" is this the same if it's a the 14.04 | 05:37 |
valorie | if you go through the steps, and determine the correct driver, yes | 05:38 |
blahblahblah99 | daumn this way harder than what i thought | 05:40 |
valorie | did you try this bit? " | 05:40 |
valorie | Video Cards | 05:40 |
valorie | Note: Most nVidia-cards will work if you just install the nvidia-glx ("nvidia-glx-legacy" for older cards) package, and run this command: "sudo nvidia-glx-config enable" | 05:40 |
valorie | it isn't hard, there are just lots of steps | 05:40 |
valorie | and you have to be sure you don't skip any | 05:40 |
valorie | I would try the above bit first, if you haven't already tried that | 05:41 |
blahblahblah99 | I can I give you my email incase I gotta ask you some more questions? I gotta get ready for work | 05:41 |
valorie | I'm no expert, blahblahblah99 | 05:43 |
valorie | your best bet is this channel | 05:43 |
valorie | also I'll be out of town quite a bit soon | 05:43 |
valorie | there are also forums if you can't use irc | 05:43 |
valorie | !forum | 05:43 |
ubottu | The Ubuntu forums can be found at http://www.ubuntuforums.org. Kubuntu Forums are found at http://www.kubuntuforums.net. There is also a channel on freenode IRC #ubuntuforums | 05:43 |
blahblahblah99 | ok I appreciate it a lot thanks again. I'll be back when I fail | 05:44 |
valorie | IF you fail! | 05:44 |
valorie | you may very well succeed | 05:44 |
valorie | :-) | 05:44 |
blahblahblah99 | I sure hope so, thanks again you helped out tons, at least got me in the right direction. How does someone become awesome with linux? | 05:45 |
valorie | hang out in irc! | 05:45 |
valorie | lol | 05:45 |
valorie | and read stuff, try things out, don't give up | 05:45 |
valorie | also I write a blog so when I learn something new, I can consult it later to refresh the knowledge | 05:46 |
valorie | 'linuxgrandma' blog | 05:46 |

kubuntuplasma5 | hi | 13:55 |
kubuntuplasma5 | can anyone help me with advanced utopic beta installation? | 13:56 |
kubuntuplasma5 | I want to setup crypto+lvm+btrfs and got key error when creating crypto partition | 13:56 |
kubuntuplasma5 | and even when I install using guided sddm displays blank screen and complains about object being created in different QThread | 13:57 |
BluesKaj | kubuntuplasma5, this is a question for #ubuntu+1, but if you installed the new kernel for beta and using nvidia graphics sddm fails if you use plasma5..plasma 5 isn't ready for regular use, it's very broken | 14:00 |
=== light is now known as Guest53332 | ||
kubuntuplasma5 | BluesKaj: I'm using Intel gfx and I tried clean install from beta image; as for the crypto part I think it was broken even in trusty | 14:13 |
kubuntuplasma5 | BluesKaj: but thanks for info, I'll try asking in #ubuntu+1 | 14:15 |
BluesKaj | kubuntuplasma5, i have no experience with crypto ..no need for it since my pcs are home user machines | 14:15 |

alesan | tsimpson, well but pgrep pulse gives me nothing | 17:45 |
alesan | is there anything special I should do? | 17:45 |
tsimpson | no, it should just work from a default isntall | 17:47 |
alesan | I started it on the command line and now... I see it | 17:47 |

ScottyK | Hi! I'm running Kubuntu 13.04 with Libreoffice 4.2.4.2. How can I upgrade it to 4.3.1? | 20:54 |
=== clansman is now known as steel`afk | ||
=== light is now known as Guest17180 | ||
valorie | ScottyK: 13.04? | 21:24 |
valorie | I believe that is EOL | 21:24 |
valorie | !eol | 21:24 |
ubottu | End-Of-Life is the time when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades | 21:24 |
valorie | yes, that is no longer supported | 21:25 |
=== Bigcheese_ is now known as Bigcheese | ||
ScottyK | valorie - correction, 14.04! UGH can't even type right, LOL | 21:35 |
valorie | ok, that certainly is supported! | 21:35 |
valorie | !libreoffice | 21:36 |
ubottu | LibreOffice is a Free and open source office suite that includes word processor, spreadsheet, presentation, vector drawing and database components. To install: "sudo apt-get install libreoffice". User help available in #libreoffice. | 21:36 |
valorie | oh pfff | 21:36 |
valorie | !info libreoffice | 21:36 |
ubottu | libreoffice (source: libreoffice): office productivity suite (metapackage). In component universe, is optional. Version 1:4.2.4-0ubuntu2 (trusty), package size 26 kB, installed size 161 kB | 21:36 |
ScottyK | So it's best to wait for 14.10 for the latest libreoffice? | 21:36 |
valorie | so that's the package; if you want newer you'll have to get it from elsewhere | 21:36 |
valorie | I dunno what they have released; I imagine we package the newest available as long as it is stable | 21:37 |
ScottyK | I'm not having any problems with 4.2.4.2, just thought it would be fun to grab the latest. But I can wait for 14.10 | 21:38 |
valorie | no guarantees, ScottyK - kubuntu packages KDE stuff | 21:40 |
valorie | libreoffice is done by the ubuntu packagers -- MOTU probably | 21:41 |
valorie | I assume it has a launchpad pad you can check out for progress | 21:41 |
valorie | or ask in #libreoffice perhaps | 21:42 |
ScottyK | sounds good. thanks! | 21:42 |
Unit193 | Utopic has the RC, ppa backports from there. I'm pretty sure LO is in main, thus not MOTU. | 21:43 |
Unit193 | Erm, duh it's right there, in universe. :P | 21:43 |
mhlds | where can i find info of my hdd in kubuntu and disks ? | 21:43 |
Unit193 | https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice says main, actually. | 21:43 |

valorie | personally I just install kubuntu directly, but I know what I like | 21:54 |

mhlds | where do i find, disks in kubuntu ? | 21:56 |
valorie | disks? | 21:58 |
valorie | not sure what you mean, mhlds? | 21:59 |

valorie | KDE Partition Manager is perhaps what you need | 22:05 |
repos | Gparted can help you i guess | 22:05 |

mhlds | sudo apt-get install gnome-disk-utility | 22:12 |

mhlds | :) | 22:15 |
valorie | this isn't religion, it's tools to make your life easier | 22:15 |

mhlds | i like how it looks :) | 22:16 |
valorie | me too! | 22:16 |
repos | i came from the ubuntu unity and kde is the best :D | 22:24 |

mowdy | hey | 22:29 |
mowdy | What is the best c/c++ editor for linux | 22:29 |
valorie | mowdy: lots of choices; most choose kdevelop or Qt Creator | 22:33 |
valorie | if not vim, kate, or other editors | 22:33 |
mowdy | does any of them shows syntax colors ? | 22:33 |
* valorie is not a coder; no clue | 22:34 | |
mowdy | ;) | 22:34 |
valorie | they are easy to google | 22:34 |
mowdy | ill try out kdev | 22:34 |
Unit193 | vim and kate do, at least. | 22:34 |
valorie | obv. qt creator is useful if you are using qt | 22:34 |
valorie | kdevelop has a lot of fans | 22:34 |
mowdy | kdev seems to do the job :D | 22:38 |
mowdy | Thank you 1 | 22:38 |

valorie | hi alex_rock, how can we help? | 23:10 |
alex_rock | i got a problem with displaying the remaining battery time on my dell 7537 inspiron. GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="acpi_osi=Linux" fixes the problem. but now i had no wifi after suspend to ram | 23:11 |
alex_rock | (standby) | 23:11 |
alex_rock | only a reboot fixes the problem... | 23:11 |
alex_rock | to avoid this i removed the grub parameter | 23:11 |
alex_rock | valorie: thank you for asking :-) | 23:12 |
=== brian is now known as Guest5267 | ||
valorie | !acpi | 23:17 |
valorie | hmmm, ubottu has no help | 23:17 |
valorie | do you have battery monitor widget? | 23:18 |
valorie | oops | 23:18 |
rocket_nozzle | valorie: yes. i modified ~/.kde/share/config/plasma-desktop-appletsrc . there is now a empty space where the battery widget have to be, or was before..... after removing grub entry. | 23:21 |
valorie | perhaps re-add it? | 23:23 |
rocket_nozzle | valorie: i have reconnet via wifi and have now another name (was alex_rocket before) | 23:23 |
valorie | you do that in the plasma toolbar directly | 23:23 |
rocket_nozzle | yes | 23:23 |
rocket_nozzle | can i send u a snapshot? | 23:23 |
valorie | !paste | 23:24 |

valorie | unfortunately, it's friday night in europe, so many are away or asleep | 23:25 |
rocket_nozzle | hehe | 23:25 |
rocket_nozzle | http://i.imgur.com/MXbWNNs.png the battery icon is displayed, when the mouse pointer is over the empty field | 23:26 |
valorie | even after re-adding via the plasma "cashew"? | 23:27 |
rocket_nozzle | valorie: but why was no battery symbol at beginning. Dont worry about the Debian button. Its kubuntu. changed the button, because i like debian | 23:27 |
valorie | ok | 23:28 |
rocket_nozzle | cashew? what? | 23:28 |
valorie | well, it's possible to just trash your old plasma panel and instead add a new one | 23:28 |
valorie | and see if that fixes it | 23:28 |
rocket_nozzle | ah ok. I backup my settings before. Which file is for the panel? PS where are u from? europe? | 23:30 |
valorie | Washington state in the US | 23:30 |
valorie | you click the cashew at the end of the panel | 23:31 |
rocket_nozzle | ok | 23:31 |
valorie | I see in your image that you have the battery icon on your desktop, rather than down in the panel | 23:31 |
valorie | I think that's part of the problem | 23:31 |
valorie | you added it to the desktop | 23:31 |
valorie | the cashew is on the very end of the panel | 23:32 |
valorie | rather small and faint | 23:32 |
rocket_nozzle | it is only shown when i go to the panels free space, where it have to be | 23:32 |
valorie | I see it on your desktop | 23:32 |
valorie | and I suppose you can't drag it down to where it belongs | 23:32 |
rocket_nozzle | it is only diplayed at mouse over | 23:33 |
vendre_ | hello currently have 3/4 versions of the same ubuntu 14.10 as well as a couple of other distros that I dont use all on one netbook. How do I delete all except the one? | 23:33 |
valorie | vendre_: are you speaking of ISOs? | 23:34 |
valorie | actual installed versions? | 23:34 |
vendre_ | yes | 23:34 |
vendre_ | yes | 23:35 |
valorie | isos are easy, since they are just a file | 23:35 |
valorie | right-click and delete | 23:35 |
valorie | installed versions are a bit trickier | 23:35 |
valorie | unless you just do a fresh install "use whole disk" | 23:36 |
valorie | which is quite fast and easy | 23:36 |
valorie | you realize that 14.10 is only in beta? | 23:37 |
valorie | sorry, I need to leave | 23:37 |
valorie | good luck to you, vendre_ and you rocket_nozzle | 23:37 |
vendre_ | that did not work | 23:38 |
rocket_nozzle | valorie: http://imgur.com/FpTzzcU so no battery icon. I said before the grub parameter fixes the problem with battery completly. But after thet my wifi does not work after suspend...... so i have to choose diplayed battery correct, or wifi after suspend | 23:38 |
valorie | I hope you find someone more expert than me! | 23:39 |
rocket_nozzle | ok | 23:39 |
rocket_nozzle | have fun | 23:39 |
rocket_nozzle | thank you | 23:39 |
rocket_nozzle | :-D | 23:39 |
valorie | that image shows that your battery widget is NOT installed | 23:40 |
valorie | it will have a green checkmark if used on the panel | 23:40 |
valorie | bye! | 23:40 |
rocket_nozzle | yes! the problem with the dell is known | 23:40 |
rocket_nozzle | its nothing with kde | 23:40 |
rocket_nozzle | dell 7537 | 23:40 |
vendre_ | It is showing Cntl-x or F10 to boot, Cntl-c or F2 for a command line or ESC to discard and return t the GRUB menu | 23:41 |
