djznis it alright to replace Moun by Apper?00:02
valoriedjzn: of course, you can use any software in the archive00:04
valorieMuon is designed and created by one of our own devels, so most of us prefer it, but some still like synaptic, etc00:05
valorieI myself like the package manager and not discover00:05
valoriebut I usually bypass and just use apt00:05
djzncoz, let me explain...00:06
djzninstalled a fresh system , then ran Moun and searched for "ntfs-3g" and it didn't return anything...00:06
djznand it was installed on the system after checking from command line00:06
djznI wanted to know if that behaviour is expected00:06
valoriediscover, or the package manager?00:07
valoriediscover is for applications, and doesn't report on libs and such00:07
valoriewhich is why I don't like it00:07
djznyes it is discover00:07
valoriejust like Ubuntu Software Center, which I also dislike00:08
valoriebut I guess we are in the minority00:08
djznfor example, does this Package Manager gets installed by default?00:08
valorienot sure00:08
djzni have been thinking in getting involved with Kubuntu00:09
valoriewhen you do alt+f2 and type Muon, does it show up?00:09
djznI have seen that are tons of untranslated strings in my language in the installer....00:09
valorieoh my00:09
valoriewe need your help then00:09
valoriebecause that is our software00:09
djznit returns the discover, and it returns a 'update manager'00:10
valorieok, then obviously not installed by default00:10

valorieyup00:11
djzn'muon' not installed by default00:11
djzn:-|00:12
djzni finally settled with KDE.00:12
djznI have been a long time Ubuntu orphan... was distro-hopping for a while, and was experimenting with ArchLinux.... but the timing required to do sysadmin just distracts me from the important things like actually developing Java skills and such...00:13
djznone thing i still am yet to understand is that... Canonical 'dropped' financial support towards Kubuntu, right... and I read in the past that BlueSystems picked that up....00:14
valorieyes, that's the current state00:18
valoriecanonical still supports us in lots of ways, but no longer pays for a devel00:18
valorieit's all to the good; Blue systems pays *lots* of devels for Kubuntu & KDE00:19
djznso that's why the 'kubuntu' name got retained00:19

bowser`Can I find sed.texi on my kubuntu?03:09
Unit193!find sed.texi03:10
ubottuPackage/file sed.texi does not exist in utopic03:10
bowser`can i generate it? I found a recent version on gnu website, but not sure if this is way to proceed in general.03:11
bowser`where does kubuntu come from, since it's not Debian?03:15
D3Vkubuntu is based of debian03:20
bowser`yeah, i'm mixing up ideas, sorry, thank you though03:20
D3Vno problem03:20
bowser`grabbing sed.texi from gnu website is not that weird i'm guessing? kubuntu is probably packaging with this removed?03:21

alvinok, I'll stay on plasma5 for the time being. But it is time to report some bugs. Does anyone know how the package is named where you can view Fonts in systemsettings?10:17
alvinThere we go again. /usr/bin/kcmshell5 is not an official Ubuntu package :-(10:20
lordievaderalvin: PPA?10:21
alvinI suppose it is the extra-ppas10:21
alvinSo, bugs against plasma5 go to the ppa?10:22
alvinIs there a method to use ubuntu-bug for that?I like that method.10:22
lordievader!plasma510:22
ubottuKubuntu Plasma 5 is a tech preview. To test it out, see http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/kubuntu-plasma5/daily-live/current/ . If you find a bug, you can also check it with kubuntu-ci images for latest builds.10:22
valorieI'm thinking bko might be a better place10:22
valorieor.... ask in #plasma ?10:22
lordievaderHmm, that factoid does not specify where...10:23
valoriebko=bugs.kde.org10:23
valoriebasically, packaging bugs go to launchpad, KDE bugs go to kde10:24
alvinDirectly upstream? ok. No ubuntu-bug then. I guess it'll have to be done the old-fashioned way.10:24
valorieplasma5 isn't really packaged as such; you are using right from git pretty much10:24
alvinIt's probably not a packaging bug. If you open kcmshell5 fontinst you'll see immediately what the problem is.10:24
valorieyes, I've been advocating for a `kde-bug` tool10:25
valoriebut someone has to write the thing10:25
alvinThere is the crash reporter, but you need the debug packages, and lots of bugs are not crash-related.10:25
valorieexactly10:25
valoriein fact, most are not10:26
valorieI see no problem with the fontinst10:26
valoriecan you say what you are experiencing?10:26
alvinOw? I can't see any previews. It's points, stripes, but no characters.10:26
valorieeverything looks normal to me10:27
valorieI had no clue I had that many fonts10:27
alvinIt looks like this to me https://owncloud.alvin.be/public.php?service=files&t=bda6a10829281ec34f13c188c8706c7610:28
valorieyikes10:28
alvinVideo driver? I'm using nouveau.10:28
valorieI never changed anything10:28
valoriecan't recall; how do I check what I'm using?10:28
alvinMe neither. This is: insert stick, install. apt dist-upgrade. And this is the result.10:29
valorieah, you are now in the land of full-upgrade10:29
valoriealways do sudo apt full-upgrade10:29
alvinsudo lshw -short -c video will list the driver in use10:29
valoriemight make a diff10:29
valorieH/W path       Device      Class          Description10:30
valorie=====================================================10:30
valorie/0/100/2                   display        3rd Gen Core processor Graphics Controller10:30
valoriedidn't seem to though10:30
alvinOuch, leave out the -short10:30
alvinmy mistake. Also, full-upgrade is apparently the official method. dist-upgrade isn't even in the man page, but it worked. Probably an alias now.10:31
valoriehttps://paste.kde.org/pxkrqusyy10:32
valorieI don't see a driver name still10:32
alvinI see driver=i915 :-)10:33
valorieok, not sure what that is10:33
valoriemust be a blob of some sort?10:33
alvinIntel graphics. It's also an open source driver if I'm not mistaken.10:33
valorieok10:34
valorieyou can tell how much I mess with that stuff10:34
valorielol10:34
alvinI can find this bug: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=336089 Looks bad, but not as bad as here.10:34
ubottuKDE bug 336089 in kcm_fontinst "Font preview - rendering problem" [Normal,Unconfirmed]10:34
alvinAlso, the reporter doesn't mention a driver. That's the fine thing about ubuntu-bug. When reporting, it will list the drivers in use. (even if it doesn't matter)10:35
valorienotice that was neon5 also10:35
valorieplease add your input and your screenie to that bug report then10:35
alvinok, I'll do that. Makes no sense reporting a new bug.10:36
valoriebecause your rendering problem is faaar worse10:36
* valorie heads off to bed10:36
