[02:16] <inder> can any of you kubuntu gods help me with a couple of issues im having with 14.10
[02:36] <che> hey can anyone hear me?
[02:37] <Guest83285> hey can anyone hear me?
[02:37] <Guest83285> first time using irc
[04:52] <hays_> is the most recent version of kubuntu utopic?
[06:45] <Pikers> hello
[07:18] <soee> good morning
[08:36] <lordievader> Good morning
[09:43] <yossarianuk> hi will kubuntu 14.10 be getting KDE 4.14.3 in its normal repos ?
[10:04] <beluga_> Hi from the LibreOffice QA team. Can anyone reproduce this bug: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=83053 (easy to test)
[10:19] <yossarianuk> i.e will kubuntu 14.10 get KDE 4.14.3 without having to add the backports PPA ?
[10:43] <Naproxeno> Hello everyone. Package kubuntu-desktop is broken for me after the last update to backports PPA: http://scarlettgatelyclark.com/2014/kubuntu-kde-plasma-5-1-1-utopic-backport-ready-and-other-news/
[10:45] <Naproxeno> Updating plasma-desktop has uninstalled packages from "KDE 4" (I know that's not the right terminology) but I can't install kubuntu-desktop again either
[11:21] <Riddell> beluga_: you're from libreoffice qa team?
[11:21] <Riddell> beluga_: please join #kubuntu-devel if so
[11:21] <Riddell> and ask there
[11:23] <beluga_> Riddell: ok thanks
[11:28] <xieyi> does anyone use netbeans on kubuntu 14.10?
[11:30] <hateball> Most certainly someone does
[11:30] <hateball> xieyi: are you taking a poll or do you have a question?
[11:30] <xieyi> hateball: I cant launch my netbeans on 14.10
[11:31] <xieyi> I tried the several method provided on the web
[11:31] <xieyi> and havent got it launched
[11:32] <xieyi> I want to make sure whether it is a bug or an independent problem
[11:33] <hateball> xieyi: Did you install it from the repos or... ?
[11:33] <xieyi> yeah
[11:33] <xieyi> actually I tried to reinstall it several times
[11:33] <xieyi> it has been installed since the last version
[11:33] <hateball> xieyi: Launching it from a terminal, do you get any errors?
[11:33] <hateball> I don't have a 14.10 machine handy right now
[11:34] <xieyi> java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: java/nio/file/InvalidPathException
[11:34] <xieyi> at org.openide.filesystems.FileUtil.normalizeFileImpl(Unknown Source)
[11:34] <xieyi> at org.openide.filesystems.FileUtil.normalizeFile(Unknown Source)
[11:34] <xieyi> ...
[11:34] <xieyi> and several lines following
[11:35] <hateball> Well, now you've provided more information so perhaps some knows and can help at least
[11:36] <xieyi> I hope so
[11:38] <hateball> xieyi: Is this a clean install or upgrade?
[11:38] <xieyi> upgrade
[11:38] <xieyi> but I uninstalled netbeans
[11:39] <xieyi> and tried to install again to solve the problem
[11:39] <xieyi> buy nothing changed
[11:40] <hateball> xieyi: are all the dependencies properly installed, like jdk?
[11:40] <xieyi> sure
[11:40] <xieyi> I use jdk for daily work
[11:51] <yossarianuk> xieyi: one thing to try is to purge the package then reinstall
[11:51] <yossarianuk> i.e
[11:52] <xieyi> how to do it? I uninstalled it before
[11:52] <yossarianuk> apt-get --purge remove packagename  - then - apt-get install packagename
[11:52] <yossarianuk> try with --purge.
[11:52] <yossarianuk> its worth a go.
[11:52] <xieyi> I will try it thx
[11:53] <hateball> I'm not familiar with netbeans, perhaps it stores things in ~/.config/netbeans or some such, and that settings from an older version are incompatible or whatever
[11:54] <hateball> if so, backup that stuff and start fresh just to try
[11:54] <yossarianuk> or add a temp new user and try from that user
[11:54] <xieyi> purging doesnt help. I will try to remove the config directory
[11:54] <yossarianuk> << also not used netbeans previously
[11:54] <yossarianuk> ok - well worth a shot..
[11:55] <xieyi> removing the config directory cant solve the problem either
[11:55] <xieyi> but thx
[11:58] <hateball> tricky
[11:59] <hateball> question is if it can be re-produced on a fresh system, but sadly I have none such available
[11:59] <xieyi> yeah, I am wondering about that
[11:59] <xieyi> It seems like a bug of the new version
[12:00] <xieyi> at least a bug of version upgrade
[12:02] <xieyi> and another tool ruined when i upgrade to 14.04
[12:02] <xieyi> kdbg
[12:02] <xieyi> cant be used since last upgrade
[12:04] <hateball> xieyi: ruined how, as in does not start?
[12:05] <xieyi> it crashes once being launched
[12:05] <xieyi> MNG error 11: Function is invalid at this point; chunk MHDR; subcode 0:0
[12:05] <xieyi> this is the error message
[12:06] <hateball> nice, I see it segfaults for me as well on 14.04
[12:06] <hateball> xieyi: I'd file a bug on launchpad if I were you
[12:07] <xieyi> where can i file the bug?

[12:27] <Linnak> Hi, What is kde-active package?
[12:32] <BluesKaj> !kde-active | Linnak
[12:32] <Linnak> !kda-active
[12:32] <Linnak> !kde-active
[12:32] <Linnak> Nothing
[12:33] <BluesKaj> look it up in the software center
[12:33] <hateball> Linnak: it's meant for tablets/notebooks
[12:33] <hateball> err... netbooks
[12:33] <hateball> like, small touchscreen stuff
[12:33] <hateball> it's just another plasma shell
[12:34] <Linnak> No. I'm installing Ubuntu Minimal CD, and there are three kde options at added packages: 1 kde-actice 2. kde-desktop 3. kde-full
[12:34] <Linnak> I found nothing about kde-active
[12:34] <hateball> Yes, so you choose if you want plasma active or plasma desktop
[12:35] <hateball> or the whole she-bang
[12:35] <BluesKaj> Linnak, maybe the term is incorrect
[12:35] <Linnak> A couple of minutes and I will see it again because I reinstall it in virtualbox
[12:36] <Linnak> I want to install the least KDE apps. I like the look but I want the apps that I choose
[12:49] <Linnak> Okay here is the three option1. kubuntu active2 kubuntu desktop 3kubuntu full
[12:50] <BluesKaj> kubuntu-desktop
[12:52] <Linnak> The question was what is kubuntu active
[12:53] <Linnak> Another question if i remove an app which comes with ubuntu desktop will it remove the whole desktop?
[12:53] <BluesKaj> that question was answered, same as kde-active
[12:54] <BluesKaj> depends which app
[12:55] <Linnak> All right thanks
[12:55] <Linnak> For example gwenview
[12:56] <BluesKaj> try to remove it and if the list includes kubuntu-desktop then don't ]
[12:56] <Linnak> okay
[12:57] <Linnak> thank you
[13:06] <denysonique> Cannot add PPA: 'ppa:neon/kf5-snapshot-weekly'.
[13:06] <denysonique> Please check that the PPA name or format is correct.
[13:06] <denysonique> How to fix this?
[13:06] <denysonique> Ubuntu 14.04
[13:12] <BluesKaj> denysonique, did you apt-get update after adding the ppa and make sure you added the signing key
[13:13] <denysonique> BluesKaj: this is what I get when adding the ppa
[13:13] <denysonique> BluesKaj: signing key? do I need an extra key if this is from the main ppa server?
[13:14] <BluesKaj> what command are you using or are you copy and pasting the ppa to your sources.list?
[13:15] <BluesKaj> benonsoftware, check for a signing key listed on the ppa page
[13:16] <hateball> if you use apt-add-repository it should fetch keys automagically
[13:16] <denysonique> hateball: thats what I am using
[13:16] <hateball> denysonique: do you have the '' in your command? those are not needed
[13:16] <hateball> !paste
[13:17] <Riddell> denysonique, BluesKaj: neon5 is gone
[13:17] <hateball> That explains that then :D
[13:17] <denysonique> thats what I think
[13:17] <Riddell> denysonique: where are you finding instructions? we probably need to update some docs
[13:18] <hateball> My guess is https://community.kde.org/Plasma/InstallingNext
[13:18] <hateball> (first google hit)
[13:19] <denysonique> Riddell: http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=kde5+ubuntu&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&client=ubuntu&channel=fs&gfe_rd=cr&ei=lK9kVMSVB5eBcIDLgvAH#safe=off&channel=fs&q=ppa:neon%2Fkf5+site:kde.org
[13:19] <denysonique> google: ppa:neon/kf5 site:kde.org
[13:20] <BluesKaj> ok thanks Riddell
[13:20] <denysonique> Right, https://community.kde.org/Plasma/InstallingNext
[13:21] <denysonique> what is the current ppa for KDE5?
[13:21] <denysonique> or should I go back to Gentoo
[13:21] <BluesKaj> hmm, btw add-apt repository doesn't always add the the signing key IME
[13:24] <soee> denysonique: you are on 14.10 ?
[13:24] <denysonique> soee: 14.04
[13:25]  * denysonique kurwa!
[13:26] <denysonique> I want it nao, packaged, without compiling
[13:26] <denysonique> ;>
[13:26] <soee> denysonique: please behaveyourself
[13:27] <soee> denysonique: for me teh easiest way is to jump to 14.10 and use ppa:kubuntu-ppa/next
[13:31] <ahox> Hi, my system tray of plasma 5 does not show non-qt app icons like thunderbird or truecrypt.
[13:32] <ahox> It does show skype and all the "system" icons (nm-manager, battery, volume, etc)
[13:32] <ahox> Any idea how to get those icons back?
[13:34] <denysonique> soee: you sure there are no builds for 14.04?
[13:39] <soee> ahox: skype works for you with systray in Plasma5 ? not for me
[13:40] <ahox> soee: yes. It is the only non-kde application I use which works. I always assumed it's because it is also written in Qt.
[13:40] <soee> denysonique: im not sure
[13:45] <ahox> soee: I just noticed that my skype has a dbus enty com.Skype.API /org/kde/statusnotifieritem/
[14:45] <lelamal> Hi all. Kubuntu doesn't automount my external HDs anymore, since I reinstalled it, although everything seems to be set correctly in System Settings. Can anyone give me a helping hand, please?
[15:19] <EvilRoey> lelamal:  same here
[15:19] <EvilRoey> I did dmesg after I re-plugged it back in, and the kernel apparently doesn't see it.
[15:22] <lelamal> It's annoying Kubuntu doesn't automatically mount my external hard drive after a fresh install, because Ktorrent and aMule complain at startup as they don't detect the storage volume
[15:22] <yossarianuk> lelamal: it won't you need to add a fstab entry
[15:23] <yossarianuk> by default kubutu will not mount all stoarge.
[15:25] <lelamal> yossarianuk: I thought it was enough to set "Enable automatic mounting of removable media" in System Settings, to have my external HD mounted at start up. In the past, it used to work. It's like the system is ignoring my setting, then, isn't it?
[15:28] <yossarianuk> lelamal: not seen that setting myself...
[15:29] <yossarianuk> in that case ensure you do NOT have an fstab entry
[15:29] <yossarianuk> for the device
[15:31] <lelamal> yossarianuk: I just checked it, and there's no entry in fstab for my external HD
[15:33] <yossarianuk> ok - well you 'could' add one - however that could be bad - say the drive was removed your system may not boot - it sounds like a function isn't working, you could report a bug?
[15:36] <lelamal> yossarianuk: ok, thank you for your support. I will report it. I would be grateful if anyone else could shed some light on this issue, meanwhile. Thank you!
[15:38] <BluesKaj> lelamal, I haven't added an entry for the external drive, but it should show up in the devices in dolphin by default
[15:39] <BluesKaj> I mean added an entry in fstab that is
[15:40] <lelamal> Yes, there's an entry for that. Also, I can see the HD in the Device Notifier. That's where I manually mount it, after Ktorrent and aMule complain about the missing drive.
[15:41] <lelamal> BluesKaj: but still, I would prefer it to be automatically mounted at startup, like it used to be in the past releases.
[15:41] <BluesKaj> ktorrent doesn't like to use the external as target for files IME
[15:42] <BluesKaj> lelamal, I'm testing 15.04 and the external automounts without any issue\
[15:43] <lelamal> BluesKaj: I see...
[15:43] <BluesKaj> lelamal, I've switched to qbittorent and no longer have that issue
[15:45] <lelamal> BluesKaj: the issue is not that Ktorrent complains, it has all the rights to complain if it doesn't find the drive when the application starts :)
[15:46] <BluesKaj> agreed but I had probs with 14.10 and ktorrent putting the downloaded file in the external drive
[15:47] <lelamal> I see
[15:47] <lelamal> I may switch to the application you suggested.
[15:48] <lelamal> But still, I would have that automount issue.
[15:50] <BluesKaj> sometimes running sudo blkid helps, but I'm not certain
[15:52] <BluesKaj> automount seems kind of a flaky issue in 14.04 and 14.10
[15:53] <lelamal> BluesKaj: Thank you for your time. I did that, and now am going to restart to check if anything changed.
[15:54] <BluesKaj> lelamal, ok , good luck:)
[16:01] <lelamal> I'm back. Just wanted to say that BluesKaj's suggestion didn't work, for the benefit of anyone who was following the chat. Thanks anyway, I will report a bug against it.
[16:05] <BluesKaj> lelamal, bummer, sorry to hear that :(

[16:32] <mokush> are we supposed to use the backports ppa only with plasma5?
[16:33] <mokush> it seems to have overwritten the plasma-addons package, so no longer have plasmoids like icon-tasks in 14.10 with plasma4
[16:34] <BluesKaj> mokush, https://launchpad.net/~kubuntu-ci/+archive/ubuntu/unstable
[16:35] <mokush> BluesKaj: this seems to also have a lot of 5.x stuff. I just want icon-tasks back into plasma4
[16:36] <BluesKaj> ok , I misinterpreted your question, ...nevermind:)
[16:36] <BluesKaj> mokush,^
[16:37] <mokush> oh, ok.
[16:49] <rodolfojcj> hello!
[16:49] <rodolfojcj> I have some alias for ssh connections defined in ~/.ssh/config, so from a shell I execute "ssh hostalias" working fine
[16:49] <rodolfojcj> but from dolphin when I do "sftp://hostalias" it fails with "Authentication failure" message showing in a red bar with no more details
[16:49] <rodolfojcj> authentication to "hostalias" uses public key (no password authentication allowed)
[16:49] <rodolfojcj> it is on Kubuntu 14.10, but it also happened on Kubuntu 14.04
[16:49] <rodolfojcj> does anyone has a clue of that failure cause and possible solutions?
[16:59] <BluesKaj> rodolfojcj, is hostalias a legit command or is it a link to 'user@IPaddress'
[16:59] <BluesKaj> set in ~/.bashrc

[17:31] <Linnak> Hello. I'd like to know which theme should I install to make synaptic look good on KDE
[18:37] <sysop2> trying to setup a sixaxis controller under kubuntu 14.04 as a pointing device and was wondering if I had to patch the bluez like you used to?  ie bluez4.1
[18:38] <sxar> Is there a known workaround for enabling transcodes in amaroK for 14.10?
[19:10] <PasNox> Hi, when trying the "smbtree" command, that does print list using hostname (\\FREEBOX\XYZ) when i try to mount that I get this error: mount error: could not resolve address for FREEBOX: Unknown error
[19:10] <PasNox> what i can do to make it works correctly ? i did not find a way to list ip's instead of hostnames
[19:25] <lordievader> PasNox: Does 'nslookup FREEBOX' resolve?
[19:25] <PasNox> lordievader: yes it does
[19:26] <PasNox> lordievader: ho sorry, no it does not, but nmblookup FREEBOX does
[19:27] <lordievader> PasNox: Does 'FREEBOX.local' resolve?
[19:27] <lordievader> PasNox: Also how are you trying to mount it?
[19:28] <PasNox> .local no better luck.
[19:28] <EvilRoey> that's what she said
[19:28] <PasNox> lordievader: like that: << QString( "mount -t cifs \"%1\" \"%2\" -o _netdev,rw,users,iocharset=utf8,uid=1000,gid=users,sec=none,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777,domain=WORKGROUP" )
[19:29] <PasNox> %1 being the share and %2 the mount point
[19:35] <lordievader> PasNox: What is the full output of that nmblookup command?
[19:35] <PasNox> lordievader: 192.168.1.254 FREEBOX<00>
[19:35] <lordievader> PasNox: Allright, what is the output of 'nslookup 192.168.1.254'?
[19:36] <PasNox> lordievader: http://paste.opensuse.org/20632162
[19:38] <lordievader> PasNox: That is the reason he cannot look it up. Add the host name to /etc/hosts or use it's ip.
[19:39] <PasNox> lordievader: i would like to avoid the need of editing system files because the application as to works as is within all the computers running it
[19:39] <PasNox> i will use nmblookup to resolve names then :/
[19:39] <PasNox> thank you!
[19:40] <PasNox> lordievader: in the other hand, any possible command so see ip instead of names in smbtree ? the man page does not seems to have that
[19:41] <lordievader> Rarely, to never, use smbtree.
[19:42] <PasNox> xD ok, so i will probably use libsmb directly. ;)
[19:43] <lordievader> That is probably wisest ;)
[19:44] <PasNox> :D
[20:21] <mcgodinater> hey
[20:22] <mcgodinater> I need some help. Whenever I boot up my Kubuntu 14.10 iso in Virtualbox, it boots past the bootloader just fine, but when it gets to Ubiquity, it glitches on me and my Virtualbox window goes wide and I get stripes of colors.
[20:23] <mcgodinater> No background, no Ubiquity, no nothing.
[20:23] <mcgodinater> A giant mouse cursor comes up sometimes if I move it around enough but that
[20:23] <mcgodinater> is it.
[20:25] <mcgodinater> If you need a screenshot, here it is: http://imgur.com/wwOxBfe
[20:26] <mcgodinater> hey
[20:26] <mcgodinater> i have a problem with my kubuntu iso
[20:27] <mcgodinater> when i boot it i get this: http://imgur.com/wwOxBfe
[20:27] <mcgodinater> its version 14.10, plasma 4.
[20:27] <mcgodinater> and right now im downloading 14.04 to see if that'll work fine.
[20:28] <EvilRoey> mcgodinater:  hey
[20:29] <EvilRoey> hahahahha great nick
[20:29] <mcgodinater> ohey
[20:29] <EvilRoey> thanks for making me laugh :)
[20:29] <mcgodinater> im having trouble with my just-downloaded 14.10 iso
[20:29] <EvilRoey> ah
[20:29] <EvilRoey> did you run a checksum verification on it
[20:29] <mcgodinater> hold on
[20:32] <mcgodinater> well at least 14.04.1 works fine
[20:34] <mcgodinater> huh thats weird
[20:34] <mcgodinater> the checksums are exact
[20:35] <mcgodinater> for 14.10 but
[20:35] <mcgodinater> its giving me this when i boot: http://imgur.com/wwOxBfe
[20:36] <mcgodinater> oh well
[20:37] <mcgodinater> i can download updates for 14.04 and then upgrade later
[20:50] <robertbellarmine> what command do I add on the CLI so that when I close terminal it doesn't close the program I opened in that same terminal. I remember using it before it was something like gk added before the program name
[20:56] <lordievader> robertbellarmine: nohup <program>&
[20:56] <robertbellarmine> lordievader: kk let me try that
[20:57] <robertbellarmine> lordievader: I add the & at the end of the program name, just making sure I understand it correctly.
[20:58] <lordievader> robertbellarmine: No, include the 'nohup
[20:58] <lordievader> The & makes it run in the background, but if the parent dies, the child dies too.
[21:01] <robertbellarmine> lordievader: thanks, it worked.
[22:37] <rx> hi. i need the steps to upgrade from plasma stable in kubuntu 4.10 to plasma daily. https://community.kde.org/Plasma/Packages#Kubuntu is outdated (package kubuntu-plasma5-desktop no longer exists and i must be doing the steps in the wrong order because it doesnt work to just update plasma-desktop). thx
[22:48] <m_tadeu> hi....my akonadi is not starting...the log is like this http://pastebin.com/Q5ZMdmFM
[22:50] <aloo_shu> Anybody here could assist with LibreOffice Writer, by chance? #libreoffice is a bit sleepy right now..
[22:53] <m_tadeu> aloo_shu: maybe...what kind of help do you need?
[23:03] <aloo_shu> m_tadeu , I have a book in plain text format. I opened it with LO Writer and so far have converted the part, sub-part and chapter titles into header1, header2, header3 within the default style. Also, I have placed footers under all pages and numbered the pages there. Now I want to create a table of contents.
[23:06] <m_tadeu> aloo_shu: http://www.instructables.com/id/How-to-Create-a-Table-Of-Contents-in-OpenOfficeLi/?lang=pt
[23:12] <aloo_shu> m_tadeu looks promising, thanx, shall read. wish I could help you with akonadi.
[23:13] <m_tadeu> :)
[23:16] <aloo_shu> oh, m_tadeu , since you seem to be knowledgable on LO, on #libreoffice there is a guy who needs to build a custom dictionary for working on a 19th century text. should I ask him over?
[23:17] <m_tadeu> aloo_shu: I never did such a thing....and my guess is that the dictionary (for ortographic error detection) don't belong to LO but to the system...just a guess
[23:29] <aloo_shu> biiiiig thanks m_tadeu , cosmetics apart, this did exactly what I wanted. Now I want to know WHY it worked, but that's for an other day
[23:29] <m_tadeu> aloo_shu: cool :)
[23:40] <aloo_shu> yep, cool indeed, m_tadeu, and since you assisted, here's a link to the book. Not meant for public upload, but private should be ok. https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B2Q65y_ZBQyEUEVGSExGM2J5dWM/view?usp=sharing
[23:44] <m_tadeu> aloo_shu: from the TOC sounds interesting....almost like the doors to spiritual perception
[23:51] <aloo_shu> well, m_tadeu , it does not work from one day to the other, but it's much more practical than huxley,leary&co. Have you downloaded it, so that I can take the link away?
[23:51] <m_tadeu> aloo_shu: yes...I did
[23:51] <m_tadeu> will surely take a while to explore it
[23:52] <aloo_shu> m_tadeu, this book is a gem!
