[11:05] if there is no solution I'll have to switch back to windows which I don't want to do but I really need to solve this. I need to upload some photos to facebok but the standart photo picker doesn't give me a prewiev of the images only a list of the content in a folder. I need to see the imaes prewiev [11:07] this is what do I mean by ''photo picker'' http://imgim.com/2928inciw8707296.png [11:08] dunno im on Plasma5 and have an icon to toggle show/hidew preview [11:09] plasma 5 have something useful for this ? [11:09] thats why I hate linux sometimes there is always a missig point always :( [11:11] ozberk, in dolphin you sue ... control ... adjust view properties etc [11:11] use^ [11:11] in dolphin yes [11:12] but if you want to upload facebook you need to chose some fiels by that window over there (I shared a link) [11:12] i can't replicate your issue oz [11:12] ok [11:12] ozberk,^ [11:13] perhaps setup dolphin toolbars to include previews [11:13] open facebook and try to upload a photo there will be a window let you to choose which photo/s wuld you like to upload that windows should give me a prewiev [11:14] windows^ [11:14] window^ [11:17] what the hell windows stop selling the7 and 8 ? I can't use linux I can't use windows only one stabilized OS is mac and I don't have money to buy a mac :/ that is real deal annoying. [11:21] ozberk, open dolpnin.view>panels>information [11:21] BluseKaj I know that dolphin ive me a prewiev option === jayhunold is now known as jhunold [11:40] Excuse me, could anyone tell me how do I update my Kernel version to 3.17.2? [11:42] w [11:49] SpringVisual_: download it from kernel.org [11:49] copy config file and compile [11:51] jalomann are you still here? I downloaded it, but how do I compile? [11:52] copy your old config file from /boot/config--- to your download path [11:53] it helps to get same options as you have with old kernel [11:53] I see [11:53] one sec lemme do that [11:53] --- is version of your old kernel [11:54] Alright, what now? just open the .tar.xz file with the new kernel? [11:55] note that you should always compile kernel as normal user [11:55] but you do it with sudo, don't you? [11:55] untar it to normal user home dir /home/jalo/src [11:55] if you just want to install the kernel debs download the appropriate ones from http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.17.2-vivid/ [11:55] you need sudo only to install [11:56] what do you mean debs MoonUnit? [11:57] Yes that is another good option too. [11:57] deb is a package format [11:58] So I should just download linux-image-3.17.2-031702-generic_3.17.2-031702.201410301416_amd64.deb and double click? [11:59] that should work, i usually do it from the command line with sudo dpkg -i packagename.deb [11:59] I install deb nornally: sudo dpkg -i package [11:59] yes [11:59] oh alright, did you guys already update to this kernel? [12:00] i have [12:00] No. I update kernel only if I need to. [12:00] are there risks? [12:01] Normally there isn't risk but after that you must update kernel by youself. [12:02] oh, like manually do that every now and then? [12:02] Normal update brings you only updates to the version that was delivered. [12:02] Yes [12:02] I see, its not too bad [12:03] No. And you can update only when need to. [12:03] They always recommend to update on lkml.org but it is up to you. [12:05] why is it so complicated to update in kubuntu though? I remember many other distros just have it built in to the updater utility [12:05] Kubuntu gets updated. But kernel updates are backports. [12:06] backports? [12:06] I get kernel update once a week. [12:06] Yes they bring the updates to older kernel version too. [12:07] If you look at your /boot there is several old kernels [12:07] I have four. [12:07] True, they can be deleted though, can't they? [12:07] Yes [12:08] cool [12:08] sudo apt-get purge linux-image- [12:08] oh thanks for that ;) [12:09] No prob [12:09] so about updating, just install the deb package? [12:09] New kernel 3.17.2? [12:09] yeah, i'm still wondering how to update [12:09] go to download directory [12:10] sudo dpkg -i package.deb [12:10] then reboot [12:10] ohh thats how [12:10] I see thanks, lemme try [12:10] ok [12:13] Well it says DONE, so i'ma restart, is it normal that it took like 5 seconds though? [12:13] to install yes it is normal [12:14] oh alright, hope it will all be cool, so yeah thank you so much for the help [12:14] your are welcome [12:15] well then... it fked up the graphics card... [12:16] can you help me revert? lol [12:16] Do you have nvidia card? [12:16] yep [12:16] Let's if I remember [12:17] Check first that the old kernel is there in /boot [12:17] hoping you do :3 cus dis is not lookin good [12:18] I think so, it's called config-3.13.0-39-generic [12:18] or abi [12:18] so what to do? [12:18] Yes that is standard [12:19] I normally press shift when pc boots up. [12:20] and what does that do? [12:20] if you hold down the shift key as the pc is booting you should get a the grub boot menu where you can choose an older kernel [12:20] Then pressing E let's you edit kernel versio [12:20] and it is easy to do? cus i'm kind of a scrub :P [12:21] well lemme try then [12:24] Can you repeat the number of the kernal I told you? cus I didn't write it down... [12:25] 3.13.0-39-generic [12:27] what button do I need to press to save the grub boot or list? [12:27] shift [12:27] sorry [12:27] no no, i'm already done editing, what do I need to do to boot again [12:27] F10 to boot [12:28] hopefully it'll load up [12:29] well no, now it's not even going past the loading screen [12:29] got frozen [12:30] looking again on the grub thing, it didn't save, how do I save it? [12:32] did you type the kernel right. the whole vmlinuz-3.13.0-39-generic must be there [12:33] there are two lines, one of them is /boot/vmlinuz-3.13.0-39 generic and then a root UUID after that a few lines down /boot/initrd.img-3.13.0-39-generic [12:33] first line has a - between 39 and generic^ [12:35] alright I think I fixed it, ran a command in konsole "uname -a" and it told me the kernel's back [12:36] what says uname -r [12:36] uname -r [12:36] SpringVisual: theadmin [12:37] it says 3.13.0-39-generic #66-Ubuntu SMP [12:37] ok. that is standard. [12:37] So should I try again to update the kernel with a diffrent package? [12:38] Do you see the new kernel 3.17.2 in /boot [12:38] yeah, its there, I should delete those right? [12:38] what was the command again? [12:39] the problem now is nvidia card. you should install driver for that. [12:39] I already have the latest driver though [12:40] version 343.22 [12:42] it is a while when I last installed it but it must be loaded always with a new kernel. [12:42] well so I should just give up on updating he kernel? i'm just having some probelms and people are saying that updating should solve them [12:44] I had the same pain when I wanted to use new cards that were not supported in kernel at that time. [12:44] That's now the only reason I will update kernel. [12:44] freaking hell, I rebooted and the 3.17 kernel was back... how do I get rid of it? [12:45] it's nice that the opensource radeon (r600) drivers are pretty good these days, no longer have to worry about installing binary drivers [12:45] You must edit /boot/grub/grub.cfg [12:45] And set kernel you wish to top. [12:46] But be carefull here. [12:46] alright, got into the desktop again, ill try [12:47] . /etc/default/grub is the grub config file, you should edit that, then run sudo update-grub [12:49] I don't remember what was the right and elegant way but that's dirty way. [12:49] so I should change every instance where 3.17.2-031702 to 3.13.0-39? [12:50] YOu should change the order of "menuentry" [12:50] and what does that mean? [12:50] menuentry is one line in your boot options [12:52] OR then yes if you have only one menuentry line you can edit that. [12:52] well I have no clue how to do that,I just see tons of places where menuentry is written [12:52] The same number that you typed after shift boot. [12:53] then it is easiest to uninstall new kernel and make sudo update-grub === doge is now known as doge_ === doge_ is now known as doge [12:54] I cant save the grub.cfg though, it says I don't have privilleges, how do I do that? something like save to a temp folder and copy with the terminal? [12:56] you need root priviledges to edit that [12:56] Hi, Is it possible to disable poweroff and reboot buttons of kubuntu desktop under x2go session? [12:56] yeah and how do I get those in Kate editor [12:56] probably pretty easy lfrlucas [12:57] SpringVisual_: easy. Could you help me? [12:57] you mean the physical buttons or on the taskbar? [12:58] SpringVisual_: I just want to forbid remote users to shutdow the system. [12:59] SpringVisual_: Disabling shutdown and reboot buttons for every users in KDE would solve [13:01] Well this is what I found so far, but google can help you there, I wouldn't know http://forums.justlinux.com/showthread.php?39599-How-to-disable-shutdown-for-normal-users [13:01] lfrlucas: is it just against accidental reboot/shutdown via gui or a policy? [13:02] HmpfCBR: Is just against accidental reboot/shutdown via gui. [13:04] lfrlucas: that is easy there is an option in systemsettings [13:05] HmpfCBR: But this is for a remote server where several users can login. How could admin disable for all? [13:08] lfrlucas: for the individual user the option is in system settings -> Startup and Shutdown -> Session Management. For an admin the adaption of the global config option would be a possibility (https://techbase.kde.org/KDE_System_Administration), but I don't know the correct file yet. [13:11] HmpfCBR: Is there global config options for Kde? I didn't know. Where are they located? [13:13] lfrlucas: the local confg is in ~/.kde/share/config/ksmserver in section [General] the line "offerShutdown=false" (without " ") [13:14] lfrlucas: for global options have a look at the link to system administration i pasted above, especially filesystem hierarchy [13:15] oh and it is ksmserverrc, not ksmserver (my bad) [13:20] HmpfCBR: Thank you. [13:21] HmpfCBR: Do you know where is KDEDIRS defined?

What would be better option downloading a 14.10 with kde 4 and updating to kde 5 or downloading a 14.10 kde 5 tech preview? [21:59] I am asking because on downloads page it says `Kubuntu 14.10 Plasma 4 — Latest Release, Stable and Supported` [21:59] and `Kubuntu 14.10 Plasma 5 — Tech Preview` [22:05] lovesh: for trying it out live or to install? [22:06] murthy: I want to install. also i am planning to use it for my daily use for development so i dont want to reinstall a new os soon [22:06] in case the tech release does not work ou [22:07] lovesh: so you can take care if there is any issues at boot stage? [22:08] issues at boot stage? [22:08] what kind of issues? [22:09] have you tried the plasma 5 tech release? [22:09] you know its in a development stage, for example the login manager can fail, the last time I tried I tried it was crashing on the first boot [22:10] ya I tried and it was awesome! [22:11] the dedicated plasma release is my recommendation, instead of upgrading from plasma 4 [22:12] If you can take care of any possible issues, you can try the weekly build [22:13] i am planning to download the one thats mentioned on the kde website [22:13] i mean kubuntu website [22:13] try it [22:13] this one http://files.kde.org/snapshots/kubuntu-plasma5/kubuntu-plasma5-14.10-desktop-amd64.iso [22:14] btw do you know a torrent link for this one? [22:14] that is what I am using, although I upgraded from 14.04 to get it [22:14] we don't have a torrent, but there is a metalink [22:15] lovesh: Try it live before you install, that way you can be little bit sure of the stability [22:15] http://files.kde.org/snapshots/kubuntu-plasma5-201410310825-i386.iso.mirrorlist [22:16] yes but sometimes when i download large files on my internet connection they get corrupt so i prefer torrent [22:16] valorie: that is a 32 bit iso [22:17] yeah [22:17] wrong page: http://files.kde.org/snapshots/kubuntu-plasma5/ [22:18] got it [22:18] click details for the metalink [22:18] lovesh: have you tried zsync? [22:18] never heard of that [22:19] whats the similar channel to beast on irc? [22:19] zsync is pretty cool - it is like rsync for ISOs [22:19] checks the data and just downloads the bits you need [22:20] ok [22:20] lovesh: Its a kind of download manager that has a resume support. you can resume after a disrupted internet connection === bailey is now known as Enjoi === Enjoi is now known as bailey === bailey is now known as bailey_ [22:21] murthy: i use download managers to download large file but in the past i have had few isos get corrupt. so i prefer torrent [22:21] metalinks pulls from all the available mirrors and merges the input [22:21] quasi-torrent === bailey_ is now known as foco_ [22:21] KDE doesn't run torrents, unfortunately [22:22] and ubuntu wouldn't host our plasma 5 ISO because that code is not yet in the archives [22:22] lovesh: but this zync software takes care of the software that you are downloading at bit level and checks its integrity at the end, so it is fool proof afik [22:22] we'll be putting it there soon, I believe [22:22] valorie: ok. but the 14.04 and 14.10 have torrent links [22:23] right, that software is all in the archives [22:23] valorie: ok [22:23] zsync like rsync is very secure [22:23] lovesh: believe me you wont ask for a torrent after you start using zsync [22:23] murthy: ok.let me try that [22:24] well, torrents are great because you are serving your fellow users [22:24] lovesh: so do you know how to install? [22:24] lovesh: oops sorry [22:24] lovesh: I forgot that you are a developer [22:24] * valorie seeds all the *buntu torrents [22:25] yes i use unetbootin or usb creator to make a bootable usb and then i install [22:25] lovesh: no I mean about the zsync [22:25] i can google it [22:25] i am doing it right now [22:27] lovesh: You may already know this but this the command for you to get the iso you wanted, " zsync http://files.kde.org/snapshots/kubuntu-plasma5/kubuntu-plasma5-14.10-desktop-amd64.iso.zsync" [22:27] yes [22:27] thanks for the help guys [22:28] lovesh: yw [22:28] valorie: and murthy [22:28] * valorie is not a guy, but you are welcome [22:28] thanks again [22:33] valorie: so Plasma 5 should be done in time for Kubuntu 15.04?

[23:32] valorie, 14.04 [23:33] ~/.kde/share/config/katerc , got it [23:34] it's probably not "Word Wrap" though, that is set to 80 [23:34] sometimes settings are in /share/apps too [23:34] my goal is to remove unwanted linebreaks from this file [23:34] and ~/.config and ~/.local are worth checking [23:34] devels are throwing things in there more often now [23:34] yes, I hear you [23:35] valorie: you think it's not in the katerc? [23:35] if you don't see it, it isn't there [23:36] there is a #kate however most devels are probably asleep as it is late in europe [23:40] valorie: yup, 0:39 =) [23:40] found it: Line Length Limit.

[23:55] oooo [23:56] bennypr0fane: possibly you have to edit that file while logged out of kde [23:56] which would suck a bit [23:56] emacs, vim, etc... no thanks! the stuff that you have to know everything about to use it. I'm an Ubuntu user for a reason... [23:56] indeed [23:56] valorie: yes it would suck, how am i supposed to do that? [23:57] sometimes those rc files work just fine if edited while logged in [23:57] Thx reading now [23:57] you would have to use vi or nano or something in the console [23:57] :( [23:58] nano is pretty user friendly [23:59] nano is fine for me [23:59] but I don't know how to get a console when logged out [23:59] F2
