[02:39] <Fritigern> Not actually Kubuntu related, but does anyone know if it is possible to set up a RAID array in VirtualBox? I have never really played with RAID, but like to give it a go. I don't have the hardware (nor the money to get the hardware) to do it the proper way...
[02:40] <Fritigern> SON OF A NETSPLIT!!! Again???
[02:41] <Fritigern> About my earlier question, don;t worry. I have just found the proper room to ask it in ;-)))
[04:47] <yahyaa> can anyone recomend a good backup utility that will automaticall back up one folder or more to an external hdd for Kubuntu???
[04:53] <valorie> by automatic, exactly what do you mean, yahyaa?
[04:56] <yahyaa> if i put something in that folder it will automatically copy it to another destination like a backup
[04:57] <valorie> ah, like dropbox
[04:57] <yahyaa> yes
[04:57] <valorie> I believe that ownCloud can do that
[04:58] <yahyaa> ok let me take a look see
[04:58] <yahyaa> thanks
[04:58] <valorie> however, I've not used it myself
[04:58] <valorie> !info owncloud
[04:58] <valorie> hmmm
[04:59] <rx__> make sure your solution has versioning (or a least it takes a backup of the backup once a week) because this is really dangerous: if the file on your computer gets corrupted or you simply overwrite it with a bad copy, it would also overwrite the backup ;o)
[05:01] <yahyaa> right, thanks
[05:07] <valorie> !sound
[08:25] <lordievader> Good morning.
[10:54] <dmatt> Hi, Firefox opens Downloads folder in Gwenview instead of Dolphin. Dolphin is preferred in system settings but firefox probably ignores it or uses different setting. How to fix it?
[10:58] <andy123> dmatt:
[10:58] <andy123> see if this file exits: /home/$USER/.local/share/applications/mimeapps.list
[10:59] <dmatt> this helped me http://mtekk.us/archives/guides/make-firefox-use-dolphin-for-open-containing-folder/
[10:59] <dmatt> andy123: that file exists
[10:59] <Odur> lordievader: Same problem on a clean install
[11:00] <andy123> dmatt: great, I was not aware that you can fix it in dolphin
[11:00] <andy123> I changed that file mimeapps.list
[11:00] <dmatt> that file has this information:
[11:00] <dmatt> [Removed Associations]
[11:00] <dmatt> inode/directory=kde4-gwenview.desktop;
[11:01] <dmatt> andy123: dolphin was only used as a way to invoke system settings/file associations
[11:01] <dmatt> annoying stuff..., anyway thanks for help!
[11:15] <AceKing> I was wondering if anyone else uses openVPN? When I try to import my .ovpn file, I keep getting this error: Error copying file to /home/ace/.kde/share/apps/networkmanagement/certificates/vpn_name:destination file exists
[11:16] <AceKing> It is on a brand new install. I checked the folder, and it is empty before I import the .ovpn file. I've never had this trouble with the older versions of Kubuntu. Any ideas how to fix this?
[11:19] <dmatt> AceKing: check if you can write into that folder and what are the permissions as normal user and as root
[11:19] <dmatt> AceKing: or try to rename that openvpn file, maybe there is some problem if you tried it repeatedly
[11:20] <jdrab> AceKing: i'm also using openvpn on kubuntu and i also imported config
[11:20] <jdrab> i had no issues with import
[11:20] <AceKing> dmatt, I can write into the folder. I was able to delete the imported file, and tried importing it again. Same error
[11:21] <AceKing> jrab, on 14.10?
[11:21] <jdrab> yes
[11:21] <jdrab> wait i'll check if i imported ovpn file or something else
[11:21] <AceKing> jdrab: damn. I tried renaming the files also.Didn't help
[11:21] <AceKing> jdrab: OK
[11:23] <jdrab> AceKing: it ovpn with "inline" certificates and keys and all this stuff
[11:23] <jdrab> it was*
[11:23] <AceKing> dmatt: I have multiple .ovpn files I can conncect to. They are all giving the same error message. I also tried ininstalling - reinstalling openvpn in package manager
[11:24] <dmatt> AceKing: files are correct with linux line ending?
[11:24] <AceKing> jdrab: Yes, I have the .ca files and cert files in the same folder as .ovpn files. Same way I always had them
[11:25] <AceKing> dmatt: What do you mean by linux line ending?
[11:25] <jdrab> fyi: did you know you can have them in the .ovpn file?
[11:26] <AceKing> jdrab: The certificate and key?
[11:27] <jdrab> yes you basicaly have just one big "ovpn" file
[11:27] <dmatt> AceKing: MAC, WIN a LINUX use different character combinations to inmdicate end of line
[11:28] <dmatt> AceKing: sometimes it makes things fail in strange ways
[11:29] <AceKing> dmatt, It must have been correct, becasuse I've been using the same files for the last 3 years, and they worked perfectly until this last install.
[11:29] <dmatt> AceKing: just open one .ovpn file in kate and check tools/end of line
[11:29] <AceKing> OK
[11:29] <dmatt> AceKing: OK, it was just thing to verify
[11:31] <dmatt> AceKing: do you have all updates applied? I would advise also to reboot after first boot which initialises just about everything
[11:31] <AceKing> dmatt: yes, I've had this in for about a week now. Always do updates
[11:32] <dmatt> jdrab: in 14.04 one big .ovpn file with certificates does not import correctly
[11:32] <jdrab> well it worked for me :D
[11:32] <dmatt> jdrab: at least in my case... I also had to set up some additional stuff manually to make it work
[11:33] <dmatt> jdrab: I guess our admin is way more paranoic than the average :)
[11:33] <AceKing> OK, here is a copy of my ovpn file. Dont worry, no personal info is in there. but you will see how it is set up. http://paste.ubuntu.com/9170515/
[11:35] <AceKing> I have a feeling it has something to do with my install. I may just reinstall the OS
[11:36] <dmatt> AceKing: does it work with openvpn directly in yourt install?
[11:38] <AceKing> dmatt: I usually have to go into package manager, and install network-manager-openvpn, and it usually works with no problems
[11:40] <jdrab> AceKing: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=339654 is this your bug?
[11:40] <dmatt> AceKing: that is how I do it too, but I would check with openvpn from command line to verify .ovpn files do actually work OK with your version, than check network-manager-openvpn then file a bug
[11:41] <dmatt> which has happened already apparent;y
[11:41] <AceKing> I even tried to manually run it through Konsole, and still wouldn't work.
[11:41] <AceKing> No, that is not mine. Same problem though
[11:41] <robertbellarmine> Does anyone know if any freenode bots have the ability to be able to bitcoin tip?
[11:41] <robertbellarmine> Similar to something that a reddit bot can do just wondering.
[11:43] <AceKing> According to that bug report, they are saying it's fixed.
[11:43] <AceKing> That was back in October
[11:45] <BluesKaj_> Hiyas all
[11:45] <dmatt> AceKing: but fix was not released
[11:46] <AceKing> dmatt: OK. At least I know it's not just me.
[11:46] <AceKing> dmatt: jdrab: I do appreciate your help!
[11:46] <jdrab> AceKing: np
[11:47] <dmatt> AceKing: you're welcome
[12:55] <gfrog> hey there, anyone uses kubuntu vivid? my kde5 desktop goes frozen every 2mins, but the most weird thing is I can get it back with just "alt-tab" key...
[12:56] <BluesKaj_> gfrog, yeah it's plasma 5 bug
[12:57] <gfrog> BluesKaj_: so is there any workaround now? :(
[12:57] <lordievader> gfrog: Same here, it has to do with the desktop effects.
[12:57] <lordievader> Hit alt + shift + f12. it disables the effects, but no more "freezes".
[12:57] <gfrog> lordievader: can I turn off all the effects to workaround it?
[12:58] <gfrog> lordievader: awesome. magic key, I love it. :p
[12:58] <soee_> phoenixz: oh first time i hear about this
[12:58] <soee_> *oh
[12:58] <BluesKaj_> gfrog, you could ask in #kubuntu-devel or #ubuntu+1
[12:59] <gfrog> BluesKaj_: now I get the alt + shift + f12 magic key, I'll report the result here 5mins later
[13:33] <beluga_> Riddell: so you are in Munich now.. there are some LibreOffice folks in there as well. Is there still a problem with libreoffice not using the kde oxygen style when running under plasma 5?
[13:33] <lordievader> beluga_: According to his blog post he looked at it with them.
[13:34] <lordievader> beluga_: http://jriddell.org/2014/11/22/blog-move-bug-squashing-party-in-munich/
[13:34] <beluga_> lordievader: whoops, you are right :D and I just noticed this https://redmine.documentfoundation.org/boards/1/topics/478
[13:34] <beluga_> Plasma 5 Breeze icon set for Libre Office (in the design team forum)
[13:35] <soee_> beluga_: it does nto use ixygen
[13:37] <beluga_> I curated a categorized list of bugs that are difficult to triage or act upon for the QA team: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/BugTriage/HardBugs some Kubuntu-related ones can be found there
[13:39] <soee_> Riddell: ^
[13:58] <Riddell> beluga_: yes, I just worked out a fix for it and I'm compiling libreoffice to check it works
[13:58] <Riddell> beluga_: are you involved in libreoffice?
[13:59] <lordievader> Riddell: Heh, I just compiled it myself, took ages. Have fun ;)
[14:00] <faust> as a gentoo user: libreoffice is my nightmare
[14:01] <beluga_> Riddell: yeah I'm in the QA team. We discussed about a certain bug a while ago and I took a note about what you said about oxygen + plasma 5
[14:03] <Riddell> beluga_: I'd like to make the breeze icon theme too, I've been pointed to the README in the libreoffice source for it
[14:03] <Riddell> beluga_: and then qt5 widgets.. well that's more tricky but maybe I can look at it
[14:04] <Riddell> beluga_: you're not in #libreoffice-dev ?
[14:04] <beluga_> Riddell: you can ping this issue I guess https://github.com/NitruxSA/plasma-next-icons/issues/6
[14:05] <beluga_> Riddell: no, not a dev
[14:05] <beluga_> #libreoffice-qa is where I hang out
[14:05] <beluga_> #libreoffice-design has the folks that you can discuss the icons with
[14:06] <Riddell> ok
[14:06] <Riddell> beluga_: I'm confused by the tooling, what's github used for?
[14:06] <beluga_> Riddell: I just got the link from this design team topic https://redmine.documentfoundation.org/boards/1/topics/478
[14:06] <Riddell> oh that seems to be KDE using it?
[14:07] <beluga_> you can see the design team member Jay Philips requesting a breeze icon theme
[14:07] <Riddell> sheesh, these artists, why can't they work with the rest of the devs
[14:07] <beluga_> the github in question is Nitrux's http://nitrux.in/
[14:08] <beluga_> wow they sell a KDE suite http://nitrux.in/store/nitrux-kde-suite/
[14:52] <acovrig> how do I enable a greyed-out kmix device?
[17:37] <uwe> hallo Leute, habe Ubuntu heute neu,echt Begeisterung aber ein paar Fragen an euch.
[17:38] <yofel> !de
[18:11] <Miruku> Hello there
[18:11] <lordievader> o/
[18:11] <Guest28631> hi
[18:13] <kentaning> hi
[18:13] <Miruku> I'm seeking some assistance. I just installed Kubuntu so I tried to install the drivers, but the driver manager doesn't give me anything.  Can I get them more manually somewhere else?
[18:14] <lordievader> Miruku: What kind of driver are you looking for and for what device?
[18:15] <Miruku> The driver for my video card, an ati radeon HD 2350
[18:17] <lordievader> I don't think that is still supported by the fglrx (closed source) driver.
[18:28] <skinux> I need to fix boot entry for an older installation (partition). Problem is, I've forgotten the commands to get the information that the boot entry needs in order to correct it.
[18:28] <skinux> Somehow, after installing to another partition, both boot entries boot this installation.
[18:29] <Niilo> evening | Iltaa
[18:29] <lordievader> skinux: Could you pastebin your /boot/grub/grub.cfg?
[18:30] <Niilo> Any Fins?
[18:32] <skinux> Yes: http://pastebin.com/18ZCrxR1
[18:32] <Niilo> Any advice how i get mobile broadband woring @ Kubuntu
[18:33] <Niilo> im new with it so had some issues
[18:34] <lordievader> skinux: There is but one menu entry?
[18:34] <Niilo> got it working with my laptop thru WIFI, but with desk pc i cant get it working.
[18:34] <skinux> Oh...crap! It's Windows Boot Menu that has double Ubuntu entries.
[18:35] <lordievader> skinux: Ah never mind, os prober found the other.
[18:35] <skinux> And from there, both entries boot this installation, when one of them should boot the older one.
[18:35] <lordievader> skinux: The 14.04 one boots to a different partition that the top Ubuntu one.
[18:36] <skinux> Hmm.
[18:36] <lordievader> skinux: Look at the root=UUID= directives.
[18:37] <skinux> I'll give another shot to booting the other system.
[20:00] <laurent_> hello word
[20:01] <lordievader> o/
