celsionhi, I'm trying to run the kubuntu live system from usb, but all I get is a garbled screen. I tried to boot with nomodeset nofb, but that doesn't change anything. I have a nvidia gtx 750 which apart from the proprietary drivers should also run with nouveau. Does someone have a suggestion what I could try next?12:11
BluesKajcelsion, did you md5sum the image before installing on the usb and which app did you use, Startup disk creator or Unetbootin12:17
celsioni did it with 'dd' and also checked it for errors with the menu entry when i booted from the usb12:19
BluesKajnever tried using dd for an installation iso image12:21

dmnmsc_Hello13:31
dmnmsc_Were someone able to use 5.1 through s/pdif?13:31
dmnmsc_kmix is just showing front-left and front-right13:32
=== max is now known as Guest38418
BluesKajdmnmsc_, yes make sure alsamixer spdif is unmuted and using pcm out in alsamixer13:49
BluesKajsame goes for systremsettings>multimedia>audio&video>audio hardware setup tab , dmnmsc_13:51
=== juboxi is now known as jubo2
dmnmsc_Hello BluesKaj. Thanks for the tip. spdif is unmuted in alsamixer. But... kmix is just able to show me front-left and front-right. Is this normal?14:15
BluesKajdmnmsc_, yes, check your device that's receiving the spdif signal for the surround type like dolby diital or dts depending on what the source signal is outputting14:21
BluesKajdolby digital rather14:22
BluesKajdmnmsc_, and for your info , dragonplayer doesn't pass surround sound with spdif,only a stereo pcm14:23
dmnmsc_BluesKaj: hmmm ok. So better switch to vlc or smplayer, I guess14:24
BluesKajyou either have to use vlc as a player or install vlc backend for phonon instead of gstreamer14:24
dmnmsc_BluesKaj: But, if kmix is just showing to channels... how can I check the speakers? front-right, front-left, center, effects and subwoofer?14:25
dmnmsc_two*14:25
BluesKajdmnmsc_,  yes, I use vlc , don't know much about smplayer ...is this a desktop type surround system?14:27
dmnmsc_BluesKaj: I think you are talking about phonon and I'm talking about programs. Could be?14:28
BluesKaji'm assuming the programs/media you are listening to are encoded with either Dolby Digital surround or DTS14:29
BluesKajor watching rather14:30
dmnmsc_BluesKaj: not really. I was just playing with kmix and pulseaudio because the two speakers only14:31
dmnmsc_I use kaffeine (dvb-t) and I can't see any audio option14:32
BluesKajkmix doesn't list anything other than 2 speakers, L&R14:32
BluesKajno matter what the audio codec contains14:32
dmnmsc_Not in s/pdif but yes in Analog 4.0 or 5.1 in example14:33
BluesKajyou need a device that shows what the encoded signal contains to know what audio surround type is14:35
dmnmsc_You mean the device where speakers are connected. right?14:35
BluesKajdmnmsc_, for example muy audio receiver shows Dolby Digital or DTS on the front display depending on what kind of audio is being decoded and how many channels are active14:37
BluesKajmuy=my14:39
dmnmsc_OK. I'll check it later since the device is in other room. Just to clarify: I need to switch to vlc phonon or I can use gstreamer?14:39
BluesKajgstreamer works with vlc as long as you set vlc audio up to spdif  in tools>preferences>audio>output module is alsa and the spdif option is checked14:43
BluesKajdigital audio on linux is no worse than setting it up in windows ..I've used both over the years14:45
dmnmsc_BluesKaj: hmmm nice. Not pulse?14:45
BluesKajthe audio hardware setup tab in system settings is actaully pulse14:47
BluesKajyou can check pavucontrol if wish14:47
BluesKajif you wish14:47
dmnmsc_But is not listed as pulseaudio but a lot of audio entries.14:47
dmnmsc_that is/was confusing me as well14:48
BluesKajmy setting works wit alsa in vlc audio setup14:49
dmnmsc_OK. I'll try it. Thanks!14:49
BluesKajforget pulse...it's already set as described above14:50
dmnmsc_OK. Thanks!14:54

skinuxHow many distribution specific Python scripts require Python to be version 2.7 and not 3.0?17:12
=== clansman is now known as steel`afk
BluesKajskinux, ask in #python17:16
skinuxI'm asking specifically about scripts used by (K)Ubuntu, not all *nix systems.17:16
* skinux wonders if it'd be easy to write a shell script that would search for such python scripts17:17
