valorie"ready"?02:29
* valorie is using plasma 5 atm, and have been for a few months02:29
valorieto find out if it is ready for YOU, perhaps try the liveUSB?02:29
yahyaathe only release i saw is an unstable and unsupported version of it02:29
valoriewe're planning 15.04 to be plasma 5 by default, if that is what you mean02:30
yahyaayes02:30
valorieso about 5 months02:30
yahyaaok thanks, I installed the unsupported version, but it could not find my printer, said it was missing a ppd file!02:32
valorieplease file a bug, yahyaa02:32
valoriethat's the point of running a testing version02:33
yahyaahow should I do that, I already uninstalled it and went back to plasma 402:33
valorieI've heard of printing problems both here and in #kde02:33
valorieoh sad02:33
valoriefiling bugs is an important contribution02:33

alvinRunning plasma5 now. With KDE 4.14.1. If I add the Kubuntu PPA, will I get 4.14.2, or is the PPA not meant for plasma5 users?09:28
streetcan someone tell me if kubuntu 14.04 uses grub2 from the install?09:34
valoriealvin: which kubuntu ppa?09:35
valoriestreet: yes, grub209:35
valoriefor years09:35
valorie!grub209:35
ubottuGRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - For more information and troubleshooting for GRUB2 please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub209:35
alvinRight. Ehm, backports I think. Let me check.09:35
streethumm09:36
alvinvalorie: No, this one: ppa:kubuntu-ppa/ppa09:36
alvinbackports is currently used for telepathy. That one too actually. Can I add both and not break plasma5?09:37
lordievader!info grub209:37
ubottugrub2 (source: grub2): GRand Unified Bootloader, version 2 (dummy package). In component universe, is extra. Version 2.02~beta2-15 (utopic), package size 2 kB, installed size 32 kB09:37
lordievaderAh, finally an actual version 2 :P09:37
streetthanx09:38
valoriealvin: I think you would get a warning of incompatable software09:41
streetI lost it after my last update, and wanted to eliminate any conflicts with the packages I installed yesterday09:41
alvinvalorie: In that case, I'll try. I'm already running plasma5, what's a little more risk :-)09:42
valorieme too, but I can't recall if I have backports or not09:42
valorieI should09:42
valorieso far so good with plasma 5 here09:43
streetI received my first error installing updates today. I was a little surprised when I crashed...got it back now09:44
alvinLooks fine so far. I'm downloading. This morning I noticed that my kernel upgrades aren't getting trough. I let the installer partition, and it made a separate /boot and /boot/EFI. (encrypted LVM). Now I see that /boot is NOT automounted, and apt fails to see that. So, when update-grub runs, it places an initrd on my root volume. I'll have to remember to mount /boot.09:45
valoriethat's a bit odd09:45
valorieI'm glad I don't have to deal with efi09:45
alvinThis might qualify as a bug. If someone else uses encrypted LVM and notices his /boot is NOT mounted (df), please check.09:45
alvinvalorie: You will in the future.09:46
alvinYou can run from systemd, but not from EFI :-)09:46
streetthat seems related to my reboot problem..couldnt find partitions09:47
streetthanx again09:47
lordievaderalvin: How does your /etc/fstab look?09:47
alvinI'll install and reboot. brb. street, what reboot problem? I must admit I do have problems rebooting, but I didn't know that ahout the /boot partition. Kubuntu does not want to reboot directly. I have to drop to a shell09:48
alvinlordievader: I'll reboot first and paste it somewhere09:48
alvinReboot succeeded. I already see stuff fixed using that PPA. Good!09:51
alvinThe reboot problem I still have is very weird. When rebooting, the pc actually reboots, goes to grub, then shows a blank screen. Then I press Ctrl+Alt+Del, then it reboots, goes to grub and boots normally. Every time. I have to 'reboot twice'.09:52

alvinlordievader: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9454281/09:53
alvinI did change stuff. like the /tmp and the names (and especially size) of the LVM volumes. Makes no sense to create a single LVM volume anyway.09:54
lordievaderalvin: The uuid of /boot is correct?09:55
alvinblkid says it is09:56
alvinI note that now, /boot and /boot/EFI actually did mount09:56
alvinI wonder what the problem was. There was an initrd placed on /boot when it was not mounted. I moved it to the correct partition before rebooting and ran update-grub09:57

alvinahox: Thx. It was not installed.12:36
alvinOn a related note, what's the package for KDE telepathy. It's not installed either.12:46
alvinOk, that's not true. Stupid of me. I was looking for 'telepathy' in the Kmenu while "Instant Messenger Contacts" was staring me in the face in "favorites"12:49

morgajelquestion for you guys- when you install off a usb stick, have you noticed that your machine never ends up recognizing the optical drive?  I finally get around to trying the optical drive over a year after the initial install and it can't see the drive. no /dev/cdrom or /dev/dvd, nothing in lshw, and nothing in lspci. http://www.linlap.com/hp_elitebook_8570p says the drive works, and I've physically replaced the drive as well. same results.15:17
morgajelany thoughts as to what the problem could be?15:17
morgajelor where else to look?15:17
morgajelnothing in dmesg either ;/15:19
MarcoPauhello, I can't have chromium in my own language since a few upgrades. I have the language packages installed and reinstalled to make sure everything went properly. Do you have any hints?15:24
BluesKajmorgajel, uefi/bios ?15:24
morgajelBluesKaj: I'm not 100% sure- it's probably whatever was stock with the laptop. any suggestions on figuring out which it is?15:27
BluesKajmorgajel, how old is the laptop?15:27
morgajeltwo years old15:28
BluesKajok then it's definitely uefi , I've had the same problem since I removed windows 8 and installed Windows 7 and Kubuntu15:30
morgajellooks like bios- no trace of efi in dmesg, but plenty for bios15:30
morgajelBluesKaj: :/15:30
morgajelBluesKaj: I take it you didn't find a fix?15:31
BluesKajmorgajel, the only way I solved it was to install a new GPT partition table over the old one and reinstall both OSs15:31
BluesKajgpt from the windows disk management15:31
BluesKajok gotta go for a while ..bbl15:32
morgajelthanks BluesKaj15:32
morgajelso basically I'm screwed :/15:32
=== Guest14762 is now known as Mamarok
morgajelBluesKaj: for the record, it was in legacy bios mode rather than uefi hybrid (with cmd) or uefi native16:08
BluesKajmorgajel, yes I did the same at first, but got tired of removing the batery for 5mins every time i needed the cdrom detected16:09
BluesKajerr battery16:09
BluesKajso now i just use the usb option in the uefi/bios16:10
BluesKajmorgajel, I suggest you do the same16:11
BluesKajit also helps to have access to a pc that has a working cdrom to transfer files and iso to a usb stick16:12
morgajelhere's the most frustrating part16:16
morgajelI didn't even need to use it16:16
BluesKajdidn't need to use the cdrom?16:17
morgajelI just wasted 3 hours trying to read a disk that my coworker burned for me for a dell disk array; I can mount the iso through the idrac16:17
morgajelthis is the second time in 2 years that I've needed to use it, so I thought I'd try to figure it out since previously I presumed It was a bad drive16:17
morgajelnot a bad drive, just derpy hardware16:18
morgajeland I don't have the time or resources to reimage my laptop right now16:18
morgajelI'm trying to get a new vmware cluster up and running before Jan.16:18
BluesKajwell if you want to restore cdrom access then Is suggest gpt for the windows partition, if you have it installed. GPT keeps better track of hardware and partitions than the old mbr and windows recovery ntfs16:21
morgajelyeah, it'll probably be a project for January or Feb.16:22
morgajelthank you for your help though16:22
morgajelI really appreciate it.16:22
BluesKajas soon as you install kubuntu the gpt partiton table reverts to the old msdos version for ext416:22
BluesKajand my cdrom still disappears for a while at times , just not as often :)16:23
BluesKajit's not a complete fix, unfortunately16:24
BluesKajmorgajel, in the meantime I've decided to use usb as a my cdrom substsitute since it's much more reliable in the legacy mode.16:28
BluesKajI have 3 usb sticks and they're very inexpensive nowadays, better reliability and much faster transfer speeds than cds16:31
morgajelBluesKaj: ugh, it's one of THOSE days. copied the ISO from the server to my local machine, vmware won't mount it for windows to use. move it to my linux install, loop mount it there in a place where windows could see it, and while the autoinstaller works, the paths are fubar'd since it's not a real disk.16:59
morgajelon top of that, using an actual win8 install disk, I was unable to boot off it regardless of bios configuration17:00
morgajelso everything is failing today17:00
BluesKajmorgajel, ok maybe secure boot is blocking the bootup, ..try disabling secure boot17:02
morgajelit was disabled :/17:03
BluesKajtry the removing the battery for a few mins then opening the bios to see if you can boot off the cdrom17:06

arthurfiggishmm...anyone know their way around ufw particularly well? :) i have a bunch of rules set up to try and allow access from any address coming from 192.168.2.0/24 as a range to port 8200 of my PC, to share out DLNA stuff...but it seems like it's still blocking a lot of connection attempts in the logs?17:25

keithzgHmmph, just saw baloo_file jump to 100% CPU usage and start eating up gigabytes of memory; all hail the new file indexing regime, as broken as the last :P22:43
rberg_does anyone here use kde telepathy successfully?22:45
rberg_I am unable to log into a xmpp server that kopete works fine with. ktp has a spinning icon and never connects22:47
keithzgHmm I use *telepathy* routinely but never on the desktop these days. I think there's a general telepathy log though? Although kde telepathy IIRC you run a specific other binary to debug.22:50
keithzgHmm of course the official freedesktop page is purely gnome-focused: http://telepathy.freedesktop.org/wiki/Debugging/22:51
rberg_I have been looking in ktp-debugger but I dont see any obvious errors22:52
keithzgrberg_: and your problem isn't just https://community.kde.org/KTp/Troubleshooting#I_can.27t_connect_jabber_accounts ?22:54
rberg_I do have a ~/.cache/dbus22:55
rberg_err dconf I mean22:55
keithzgFair enough; and when I actually look I see that this bug was fixed long ago, heh. Time to update the community wiki!22:55
rberg_I have also removed my iptables rules just to be sure22:56
=== thiago_ is now known as Guest55743
keithzgrberg_:Hmm, but the fact that Kopete works fine (on the same PC, I assume?) makes that seem unlikely anyways.22:58
rberg_yep same machine23:04
rberg_bonjour works much better without me blocking it :)23:04
keithzgrberg_: Wireshark time?23:04
rberg_thats a idea, I have never used wireshark.. is it anything like tcpdump?23:05
keithzgYeah, just a nicer interface mostly, heh.23:05
keithzgFairly easy to filter on the fly.23:05
rberg_cool, I will look into that23:06
rberg_I see packets going out but not back.. and a error "Could not get owner of name 'org.freedesktop.Telepathy.Connection.gabble.jabber.rberg_40XXX_2ecom_2fkde_2dtelepathy_2d498686': no such name""23:11
