[04:26] <kavaco> hi
[04:26] <kavaco> which driver should I use to AMD Radeon R7 M265: fglrx or fglrx-updates?
[04:26] <kavaco> what's the difference?
[06:54] <bukai> Hi, I need a twitter widget for the https://twitter.com/kubuntu . Can anyone help me out with the same ?
[09:51] <lordievader> Good morning.
[09:58] <Arthur_D> lordievader: thanks a lot for the link about bridging with wireless yesterday - I tried it today and after a few minor adjustments I got it to work :D
[09:59] <lordievader> Arthur_D: Good to hear :)
[10:00] <antalj> Good Morning!
[10:00] <antalj> Is there a possibility to resize KDE's vertical panel by height? I would like to have a unity like launch pad on the left. Ubuntu 14.04, KDE 4.13.3. Thx ^^
[10:02] <lordievader> antalj: For the horizontal, yes. So I suppose the vertical can do so too.
[10:04] <antalj> ohm, yeah thx, but I could not find any option for that. Where is it incase of horizontal
[10:05] <antalj> I mean there is an option to modify the height for the horizontal but with that I can not make it "shorter".
[10:05] <lordievader> antalj: Panel settings -> Width
[10:06] <antalj> yeah that makes it bigger but not shorter. I want to have the panel not along the full screen
[10:07] <lordievader> Ahh, I misunderstood, hold on.
[10:08] <lordievader> antalj: Panel-properties -> then drag the little triangles.
[10:10] <antalj> oh lol thx :) I did not seen those before
[10:10] <antalj> have not seen ^^
[10:10] <antalj> oh yeah now its great
[10:11] <lordievader> They are rarely used, but KDE supports loads of customization.
[10:13] <antalj> yeah, currently I am just learning the many possibilities :) actually this is why I decided at the KDE
[10:44] <antalj> May I have an other question, this is quite interesting
[10:48] <antalj> If I press the fn + brightness keys on my Asus laptop it does not change the brightness at all, but the effect appears on the screen (the pad with numbers). This works perfectly under gnome and unity but in KDE. I have searched around for possible solutions but it is a mass unfortunately.
[10:53] <lordievader> antalj: Try setting acpi_backlight=vendor: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Debugging/Backlight
[11:21] <antalj> lordievader: unfortunately that do not work. I have placed the parameter after quite spalsh in grub
[11:24] <lordievader> antalj: Then read the rest of the page I linked too ;)
[11:33] <antalj> I really do not understand how is it possible that a desktop client which exists since around 20 years can not handle basic things like this o_O
[12:58] <GortiZ_> Hello, I've found that my sata drives have lost the ID_PATH variable needed to create symlinks into /dev/disks/by-path/ folder. How can I fix it? I've noticed it migrating from *buntu 12.04 LTS to 14.04 LTS. I've also tryied to write on the #udev channel but nobody answered.
[12:59] <GortiZ_> Is there a forum/bugzilla/lauchpad/... where I can write?
[13:00] <hateball> GortiZ_: there is askubuntu.com, launchpad for bugs, or the other *buntu channels. Possibly #ubuntu might offer more response for such a general question
[13:01] <GortiZ_> hateball: I thought that the issue was not really distro related that's why I asked for some "udev" resource (I've searched on internet but on the freedesktop.org site I didn't find their bug tool). Anyway I'll ask on #ubuntu channel to see if somebody has an answer before filling the bug on lauchpad. Thanks
[13:50] <antalj> o_O back after an incredible system crash
[13:55] <lordievader> antalj: Any details?
[13:56] <antalj> lordievader: I have made changes based on your link, after that my computer did not start up any more. Had to delete thungs in recovery mode
[13:57] <antalj> anyways that means that the keyboard brightness problem still not solved
[13:57] <lordievader> antalj: What did you change?
[13:58] <antalj> added an intel_backlight file to xorg.conf.d
[13:59] <lordievader> Do you have an intel card?
[14:00] <antalj> I have 2 cards
[14:00] <antalj> one geforce gtx and one itegrated
[14:00] <antalj> into i5 processor
[14:28] <BluesKaj> Hiyas all
[16:44] <jerware> I did an apt-get update; apt-get --upgrade-only -install qtcreator # Only installed Version: 3.0.1
[16:44] <jerware> QtCreator is at 3.2.2
[16:52] <jerware> Why does kubuntu not have the lastes version of qtcreator after an apt-get update ?
[16:53] <lordievader> !info qt-creator
[16:53] <lordievader> !info qtcreator
[16:53] <lordievader> !info qtcreator kubuntu-backports
[16:54] <lordievader> !info qtcreator vivid
[16:54] <lordievader> jerware: Only 3.1.1 is in the repos...
[16:55] <jerware> good enough lordievader.  But which repo am I missing?  http://codepad.org/0skYF6Mr
[16:56] <lordievader> jerware: According to ubottu it is in universe.
[17:13] <jerware> lordie and do I not already have universe in my sources.list?
[17:14] <jerware> http://codepad.org/0skYF6Mr
[17:15] <lordievader> jerware: Yes you do, which makes it odd. What version of Kubuntu are you running?
[17:36] <jerware> Description:    Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS
[17:37] <jerware> lordievader:  I did an apt-get update.
[17:37] <lordievader> !info qtcreator trusty
[17:37] <lordievader> Ah Trusty only has 3.0.1
[17:38] <jerware> Can't trusty get the latest?
[17:38] <lordievader> If someone backports it.
[17:39] <jerware> do you know of any backports?
[17:39] <lordievader> !info
[17:40] <lordievader> !info help
[17:40] <lordievader> !help info
[17:40] <lordievader> Hmm, :(
[17:41] <lordievader> jerware: Anyhow there might be a ppa somewhere, but ppa's are unsupported...
[17:41] <jerware> I take it trusty isn't the latest kubuntu?
[17:44] <lordievader> jerware: No, Utopic (14.10) is. But Trusty is an LTS so there is a reasonable change it will receive a backport.
[17:45] <jerware> How can I upgrade to utopic from the shell so I won't have to  burn a cd and wipe my hard drive?
[17:46] <jerware> safely.
[17:47] <lordievader> jerware: sudo do-release-upgrade, but it is wise to have your system be fully updated.
[17:48] <jerware> does sudo do-release-upgrade; not do a full update?
[17:48] <jerware> I only really care about the newest QtCreator for some plugins.
[17:48] <BluesKaj> jerware, usually yes
[17:49] <BluesKaj> upgrade to the next release
[17:49] <jerware> No new release found
[17:50] <BluesKaj> which OS are you on?
[17:50] <jerware> kubuntu
[17:50] <jerware> jerware@jerware:~$ sudo do-release-upgrade
[17:50] <jerware> [sudo] password for jerware:
[17:50] <jerware> Checking for a new Ubuntu release
[17:50] <jerware> No new release found
[17:50] <BluesKaj> yes, but which version?
[17:50] <jerware> lsb_release -a
[17:50] <jerware> No LSB modules are available.
[17:50] <jerware> Distributor ID: Ubuntu
[17:50] <jerware> Description:    Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS
[17:50] <jerware> Release:        14.04
[17:50] <jerware> Codename:       trusty
[17:50] <unopaste> jerware you have been muted for 60 seconds as it looks like you are pasting lots of lines into the channel, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com and paste just the URL of your data here when you are unmuted
[17:51] <BluesKaj> jerware, look in the update manager and turn off the LTS only upgrade option
[17:51] <lordievader> jerware: You asked how to upgrade to Utopic...
[17:52] <BluesKaj> jerware, look in the update manager and turn off the LTS only upgrade option
[17:59] <jerware> Muon update manager ?
[18:04] <BluesKaj> yup
[18:56]  * Peace- panic with antivirus and windows 8.1
[18:57] <Peace-> ops sorry wrong channel
[19:10] <jerware> I clicked the more button of Muon Manager and can't find any options relevent to LTS.  What is the trail of buttons/widgets if LTS is even an option?
[19:19] <jerware> if  do-release-upgrade returns no new release found, why not apt-get dist upgrade?
[19:20] <genii> jerware: What release are you currently on?
[19:20] <jerware> trusty
[19:26] <arthurfiggis> hello :) regarding the "diagnostics" in system settings (which seems to be just an opt-in/opt-out setting for sending some sort of analytics/error reports to canonical automatically)...if i click on "previous reports" there's a number apparently listed for my system, but even after registering an account you also need to register for permission to read the error reports? is there a reason...
[19:26] <arthurfiggis> ...for that, or did i get lost somewhere :)
[19:30] <genii> jerware: Because the normal settings in LTS are to wait for the next LTS, you will not usually get a notice until then. If you want to go from an LTS to the next interim ( so here Trusty to Utopic) then you need to change in the file /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades the line: Prompt=lts  into: Prompt=normal
[19:32] <kavaco> hi
[19:32] <kavaco> lordievader: hi
[19:34] <kavaco> kubuntu is not recognizing Radeon card
[19:34] <kavaco> again
[19:35] <kavaco> This was the result http://paste.ubuntu.com/8911222/
[19:35] <kavaco> now: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8925100/
[19:37] <lordievader> kavaco: Very strange indeed. Could you pastebin the output of 'sudo dmidecode' under Ubuntu (when it is being detected?)
[19:37] <kavaco> ok
[19:37] <kavaco> restart now to do
[19:43] <kavaco> lordievader: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8925248/
[19:44] <kavaco> I believe that the terminal does not fit all
[19:45] <kavaco> this is a lspci -k: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8925284/
[19:45] <kavaco> too on ubuntu
[19:47] <kavaco> lordievader: this information is enough?
[19:48] <kavaco> amd catalyst is installed
[19:48] <lordievader> kavaco: Could you install pastebinit, it makes things easier.
[19:49] <lordievader> kavaco: Then you can do: sudo dmidecode|pastebinit
[19:49] <kavaco> ok
[19:50] <kavaco> http://paste.ubuntu.com/8925390/
[19:50] <kavaco> it's installed
[19:50] <kavaco> pastebinit
[19:51] <lordievader> Are you sure that is all?
[19:51] <lordievader> Your paste starts at 17 instead of 0.
[19:53] <kavaco> wait please
[19:56] <kavaco> lordievader: i activated the radeon now on amd catalyst
[19:56] <kavaco> see: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8925495/
[19:56] <kavaco> and the fglrx-info: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8925487/
[19:58] <kavaco> lordievader: the lspci -k: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8925578/
[20:00] <lordievader> kavaco: You know what I find strange? Your bios seems to think there is no AMD card in your system...
[20:12] <lordievader> kavaco: Anyhow, you seem to have a dualboot between Ubuntu and Kubuntu, why?
[20:30] <robertbellarmine> trying to find out where the history of my text is kept in kopete, would appreciate some help thanks!
[20:30] <robertbellarmine> it would be easier for me to copy paste, and search from a .txt file.
[20:32] <soee> robertbellarmine: check in home directory for .kopete folder
[20:32] <robertbellarmine> yeah already did, not there.
[20:32] <robertbellarmine> :(
[20:33] <robertbellarmine> its not either in .config
[20:33] <soee> robertbellarmine: than maybe .kde/share/apps/kopete/logs
[20:34] <soee> but im not using it, in this old post they mention you have to have enabled log plugin also http://www.kde-forum.org/artikel/15466/kopete-history-log.html
[20:47] <robertbellarmine> soee: yes I have that plugin.
[20:48] <robertbellarmine> problem is that it is in xml now, so I am adding a vim plugin so I can read it
[20:50] <soee> robertbellarmine: but you have it right ?
[20:50] <robertbellarmine> soee:  yes found it thanks!
[20:50] <soee> nice :)
[20:51] <robertbellarmine> my problem is a good problem now
[21:50] <kavaco> lordievader: sorry
[21:50] <kavaco> i'm back
[21:51] <lordievader> kavaco: I was just going to bed...
[21:52] <kavaco> sorry
[21:52] <kavaco> i have dual boot
[21:52] <kavaco> i dont like ubuntu(unity or gnome)
[21:53] <kavaco> i like KDE
[21:53] <lordievader> kavaco: Yes but why not install kubuntu-desktop? Btw do they run different kernels?
[21:53] <kavaco> but on kubuntu/mandriva/mageia my amd radeon dont work
[21:54] <kavaco> i dont know
[21:54] <lordievader> kavaco: What version(s) of Ubuntu are they>
[21:54] <lordievader> >=?
[21:58] <kavaco> i dont know
[21:58] <kavaco> how to see?
[21:58] <genii> cat /etc/issue
[21:59] <kavaco> Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS \n \l
[21:59] <lordievader> kavaco: And the other? (mount the file system, then you dont have to reboot ;) )
[22:15]  * lordievader is off to bed
[22:23] <kavaco> genii: can you help me?
[22:23] <genii> kavaco: I will be leaving shortly. What is your current problem?
[22:23] <kavaco> i have a "trialboot", windows 8.1 OEM, ubuntu e kubuntu
[22:24] <kavaco> but my video card dont work on kubuntu
[22:24] <kavaco> its a radeon r7 m265
[22:25] <kavaco> sometimes it worked on kubuntu
[22:25] <kavaco> always works in ubuntu and windows
[22:26] <kavaco> the ubuntu lspci -k: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8925578/
[22:27] <kavaco> its work with amd catalyst driver
[22:27] <kavaco> but on kubuntu, "lspci -k" dont show the amd radeon card
[22:27] <genii> kavaco: I would recommend to add the xorg-edgers ppa with sudo add-apt-repository ppa:xorg-edgers/ppa    then refresh the lists: sudo apt-get update  ...then System Settings...System Administration...Driver Manager  and install the recommended driver you see there
[22:28] <kavaco> on kubuntu?
[22:28] <genii> Yes
[22:29] <kavaco> i come back
[22:29] <kavaco> i do it
[22:29] <genii> OK, I will wait.
[22:29] <kavaco> sudo add-apt-repository ppa:xorg-edgers/ppa ?
[22:29] <genii> Yes.
[22:30] <kavaco> thanks for listening
[22:39] <kavaco> genii: the window is empty
[22:40] <kavaco> on system settings - driver manager
[22:40] <kavaco> the lspci dont show the amd radeon card
[22:41] <kavaco> the muon is updating packages
[22:42] <genii> kavaco: Wait then until it finishes
[22:50] <kavaco> done
[22:50] <kavaco> try?
[22:50] <kavaco> need restart?
[22:51] <kavaco> genii
[22:52] <genii> kavaco: Does Muon say a reboot is needed?
[22:53] <kavaco> no
[22:53] <kavaco> the driver manager window is empty again
[22:55] <kavaco> genii: I can try a different kernel?
[22:55] <genii> kavaco: First to do: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:xorg-edgers/ppa     Then, to do: sudo apt-get update    Then check the Driver Manager window again after closing it and reopening
[22:55] <genii> kavaco: A different kernel will not help with this
[22:56] <genii> kavaco: As I said earlier, I am leaving soon. But if you are here again tomorrow I could assist then.
[22:57] <kavaco> i ran
[22:57] <kavaco> its done
[22:58] <kavaco> the driver manager window is empty again
[22:58] <genii> kavaco: If you don't see recommended drivers there to install, you could try to just do it by apt-get:  sudo apt-get install fglrx
[22:59] <genii> kavaco: Perhaps someone else will assist, I must leave now. If no one does before tomorrow, ping me when you see me here at that time.
[22:59] <kavaco> is already installed
