| Jon_ | anyone here | 01:15 |
|---|---|---|
| Jon_ | i'm a new kubuntu user. installed full Ubuntu with Unity. I like Kubuntu. But I have problem. If I show the Trash icon on the task manager panel and then proceed to move it right of the clock just left of the Panel Tool Box then when I relog in I'll get a black screen. | 01:17 |
| Jon_ | if the trash icon is not right of the clock readout then I don't seem to get the problem | 01:18 |
| Jon_ | i am using 14.04 LTS Ubuntu with the KDE Kubuntu installed | 01:18 |
| Jon_ | problem is if anybody can duplicate my problem then they might lose their appearance settings... if i use "sudo rm -rf .kde/share/config/plasma-*" after pressing ctrl-alt-f2 and enterining user/pswrd then it will allow me to log in but deletes the settings | 01:23 |
| Jon_ | i alos tried eeleting all the config settings but the problem remains | 01:24 |
| Jon_ | i need a suggestion of where to go to find help about this | 01:27 |
| flameaway | Hello | 03:47 |
| flameaway | I'm having a bit of trouble with a Kubuntu install. I install it and then it refuses to boot to that install. | 03:47 |
| flameaway | Any help would be appreciated | 03:49 |
| flameaway | What is strange that I can see the encrypted volume. But when I take the CD out of the drive and reboot, K asks me to insert boot media and hit enter | 03:52 |
| flameaway | Anyone? | 03:53 |
| flameaway | {sighs} | 03:57 |
| flameaway | could really used some help here... | 03:59 |

| BluesKaj | Hi folks | 11:51 |
| fujio | how do I stop networkmanager in kubuntu? | 12:25 |
| fujio | Tehre is no init script in kubuntu | 12:25 |
| tsimpson | "sudo service network-manager stop" | 12:28 |
| rberg | yep it looks to be a upstart job so its in /etc/init/ not init.d | 12:28 |
| fujio | thanks that worked | 12:30 |
| PieandVinyl | Hi ladies and gents. I'm having wireless dropouts on my new lappy with an haswell intel 7260. Tends to be stable after turning the wifi on and off a few times and networkmanager shows a good connection when there isn't one. Anyone got any ideas? Even if generic? | 12:50 |
| hateball | PieandVinyl: what release/kernel are you running? | 12:55 |
| hateball | In my experience it can take Intel some time to catch up with their newer chipset modules | 12:55 |
| PieandVinyl | 14.04 and 3.13.0-35. You're probably right. | 12:58 |
| hateball | PieandVinyl: You could try using backported modules, or a newer kernel | 13:00 |
| hateball | PieandVinyl: Googling for your chipset + kernel usually turns up interesting results :) | 13:01 |
| PieandVinyl | Same old story, googled everything but never thought of that search term. There's some interesting results indeed. Cheers, I'll have a read. | 13:04 |
| hateball | hmmm, is there no linux-backports-modules package any longer... | 13:07 |
| === rsi is now known as frs | ||
| ozooner__ | PieandVinyl, I have same intel chipset and dropouts with 3.13. Upgrading to 3.15 (or 3.16) solved the issue | 13:08 |
| PieandVinyl | ozooner_: Ah right. That's good news! | 13:11 |
| PieandVinyl | hateball: I'll have a look at a newer kernel then! | 13:12 |
| hateball | PieandVinyl: Good luck in your quest for stable wifi :) | 13:17 |
| frop | hello | 14:31 |
| === Mdgd is now known as Mdgd` | ||
| Mdgd` | Hey guys | 14:32 |
| frop | I'm running a Live-Kubuntu from an USB-key and I'm having problems using "mplayer" and smb:// streams | 14:32 |
| Mdgd` | Does anyone know if it is possible to install Kubuntu with LVM and an encrypted partition, using a manual partition scheme? NOT using the entire disk? | 14:32 |
| frop | I installed VLC and I can watch these stream just right | 14:33 |
| frop | even tried to install gstreamer1.0-plugins-bad with no success | 14:33 |
| Mdgd` | I was referred to the "alternate" CD in a forum post but A. it's broken, B. it's discontinued as of 12.something | 14:33 |
| Mdgd` | Seems like a pretty drastic downgrade if that's really the case.. | 14:35 |
| frop | did you try something like this? http://www.debuntu.org/how-to-install-ubuntu-on-lvm-partitions/ | 14:37 |
| Mdgd` | frop, I've already made the partitions, but the Kubuntu installer doesn't supported LVM crypts. | 14:38 |
| Mdgd` | Unless you're prepared to wipe your HDD | 14:38 |
| Mdgd` | Which kinda strikes me like offering people the option of installing a door lock. | 14:40 |
| Mdgd` | As long as they're willing to replace all their windows with doors. | 14:40 |
| Mdgd` | Pretty ludicrous demand to set.. | 14:41 |
| shadeslayer | Mdgd`: re using manual partitioning scheme, no | 14:43 |
| shadeslayer | fwiw there is no manual partitioning scheme, since you can just resize lvm partitions on the fly | 14:43 |
| shadeslayer | so seems pointless | 14:43 |
| Mdgd` | shadeslayer, okay. Are you familiar with a Linux distro that *does* support it? | 14:43 |
| Mdgd` | Fedora? | 14:43 |
| shadeslayer | not off the top of my head | 14:43 |
| Mdgd` | Haha | 14:43 |
| Mdgd` | Oh man if only | 14:44 |
| shadeslayer | why can't you just resize lvm partitions after installation? | 14:44 |
| shadeslayer | also | 14:44 |
| Mdgd` | I tried, but maybe those tools were discontinued with 12 too.. | 14:44 |
| shadeslayer | you could technically preseed it | 14:44 |
| shadeslayer | !preseeding | 14:44 |
| shadeslayer | hm nope | 14:44 |
| BluesKaj | Mdgd`, i assume you've read this, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpLVM-WithoutACleanInstall | 14:44 |
| Mdgd` | I followed the Ubuntu tutorial on LVM resizing - first half was redundant as everything was set by default, second half just spat out errors. | 14:45 |
| lordievader | Mdgd`: The mini iso can setup encrypted lvm partitions however you like. | 14:45 |
| Mdgd` | Mini iso? | 14:45 |
| shadeslayer | or you know, preseeding | 14:45 |
| BluesKaj | !minimal | 14:45 |
| ubottu | The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want. The installer is text based (rather than graphical as used on the Desktop DVD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD | 14:45 |
| lordievader | Mdgd`: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD | 14:45 |
| Mdgd` | Thanks guys | 14:46 |
| Mdgd` | Does *this* one support wifi? | 14:46 |
| shadeslayer | Mdgd`: https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/installation-guide/i386/preseed-using.html & https://help.ubuntu.com/14.04/installation-guide/example-preseed.txt | 14:46 |
| shadeslayer | Mdgd`: mini ISO doesn't support wifi I think | 14:46 |
| shadeslayer | haven't tried it though | 14:46 |
| Mdgd` | Oh well. As long as it can set up a single LVM crypt alongside other partitions, and it supports KDE, I'll take it. | 14:47 |
| shadeslayer | Mdgd`: search for partitioning on the second link | 14:47 |
| Mdgd` | Alright, I gotta cut this connection to run this install | 14:49 |
| Mdgd` | Thanks for the help fellas | 14:49 |
| BluesKaj | good luck Mdgd` | 14:51 |
| frop | ok, seems like will be impossible use smplayer and media stored on a samba share | 14:56 |
| frop | is there really no solution to this? | 14:56 |
| frop | ...guess an http/ftp server will do :P | 14:57 |
| BluesKaj | frop, on your LAN? | 15:02 |
| frop | yes | 15:03 |
| frop | I can browse the share in dolphin | 15:04 |
| frop | I can play the media with VLC | 15:04 |
| frop | just can't using smplayer | 15:04 |
| frop | nor the default kubuntu videoplayer | 15:04 |
| BluesKaj | frop, I've experienced the same problem with mplayer and dragonplayer, they aren't quite as advanced in terms of streaming options as VLC | 15:06 |
| frop | it's not about the player itself...more likely it's KDE/kio fault | 15:06 |
| frop | using ubuntu (and .gvfs) there's no such problem | 15:07 |
| BluesKaj | well, frop that was my experience, it could be a kio problem, but I use VLC as default so I guess it's immaterial in my case. Have you considered filing a bug? or asking in #kubuntu-devel | 15:11 |
| frop | seems like the "kio" bug is an old one :) | 15:11 |
| BluesKaj | no doubt ..unfortunately media in and out seems to take a back seat on kde in general | 15:14 |
| frop | trying now, via ftp...let's see | 15:14 |
| frop | eheh, works perferctly | 15:15 |
| frop | gonna uninstall vlc | 15:18 |
| frop | it bugs out sometimes, leaving the media without audio | 15:18 |

| fuorviatos | guys I've probably found a crtical bug in fglrx or KDE screenserver. How can I find out which one is the cause? | 15:44 |
| BluesKaj | fuorviatos, describe your issue in more detail | 15:45 |
| fuorviatos | BluesKaj: when using fglrx driver after suspending and waking up with the kscreensaver a hang occurs | 15:48 |
| fuorviatos | the only solution is to hard-reboot | 15:49 |
| fuorviatos | no such issue with intel driver | 15:49 |
| lordievader | fuorviatos: Haven't seen that issue here. | 15:51 |
| fuorviatos | lordievader - does that mean it is not an issue ;) ? | 15:52 |
| BluesKaj | fuorviatos, ok, what about desktop effects and OpenGL settings, any issues there? | 15:52 |
| lordievader | fuorviatos: No, it just means that I can not confirm it ;) | 15:52 |
| fuorviatos | BluesKaj: not really - because intel works like a charm with them | 15:53 |
| fuorviatos | I suppose it is a fglrx-related bug | 15:54 |
| BluesKaj | so you have a hybrid gpu setup | 15:54 |
| fuorviatos | Yep | 15:54 |
| fuorviatos | which is supposed to work without problems with 14.04 | 15:54 |
| fuorviatos | it already did with 12.04 | 15:55 |
| fuorviatos | that's why I'm kind of excluding the hardware here | 15:55 |
| BluesKaj | if your high level gpu was nvidia we could probly help, but amd/ati is more difficult | 15:55 |
| fuorviatos | I'm gonna open this as a bug under fglrx package upstream | 15:56 |
| lordievader | It might very well be the hybrid thing, I can imagine such things are tricky. | 15:56 |
| fuorviatos | BluesKaj: out of my curiosity - why is nvidia easier to solve? | 15:57 |
| lordievader | And that something is supposed to work doesn't mean it works. | 15:57 |
| BluesKaj | yes, but make sure you include the dual gpus in the explanation | 15:57 |
| fuorviatos | lordievader: Well, it should because 12.04 introduced a special xorg and kernel to support such chipsets. This was official support by Ubuntu. | 15:58 |
| BluesKaj | intel/nivida has more optional support as well as bumblebee | 15:58 |
| lordievader | fuorviatos: Have you looked in the logs what might be the issue? | 15:58 |
| fuorviatos | BluesKaj, lordievader - please note that my issue doesn't occur while switching | 15:59 |
| fuorviatos | lordievader: I cannot see nothing in the logs | 15:59 |
| lordievader | fuorviatos: So you can see something :P | 15:59 |
| fuorviatos | ;) | 15:59 |
| fuorviatos | Thanks for the support | 15:59 |
| fuorviatos | Try to report that | 15:59 |
| fuorviatos | what is the package name of kde screensaver? | 16:00 |
| lordievader | fuorviatos: kscreensaver | 16:01 |
| skinux | I'm looking for some help configuring "Windows" key to open KDE Menu. | 16:21 |
| lordievader | skinux: Last time I checked that wasn't possible, since the Windows key (super) is a modifier. | 16:21 |
| skinux | Okay | 16:23 |
| SonikkuAmerica | Shoot, I was going to tell skinux to bind it to Alt+F1 | 16:29 |
