kubuntu_hello. how is everybody doing? I am currently using the Plasma 5 Desktop in the brand new Kubuntu 15.04 Alpha 1 and it is working very well so far, so I plan to upgrade my current 14.10 installation when 15.04 is out. In fact I am liking it so much that I would like to help making it the best release possible. I know my way around with Linux, have tried several distros since 2011 but dont know any coding besides basic HTML. So I was06:48
kubuntu_thinking if perhaps I could spare some of my free time helping with translations and documentation (or bug reporting if its not too hard for a newbie)? Thanks06:48
valorieexcellent, kubuntu_06:50
valoriewe always need help packaging, testing, translating and especially with documentation06:50
kubuntu_sorry for my ignorance, but how do I start contributing?06:51
valoriebad time of the day for packaging, since the devels aren't around06:53
valoriesince you have 15.04 running, it would be very cool if you looked over the documentation and update it as needed06:53
valorieespecially with new screenshots06:53
valoriehttp://userbase.kde.org/Kubuntu I believe06:54
kubuntu_thanks Ill look into that!06:55
valorieso, I think what would be best is if you think a page needs changing06:55
valoriecopy the old one, and make a new one from that06:55
valorieand then make a category: 14.04 LTS on the old one06:56
valoriecategory:15.04 on the new one06:56
kubuntu_nice, thank you very much06:56
valorieso we won't lose our old pages, but you won't have to recreate except copy/paste06:56
valorietry it out, and see how you get on06:57
valoriealso, join #kubuntu-devel06:57
valoriewelcome to the team06:57
kubuntu_thanks, my pleasure!06:57
valorieif there aren't many changes, we might be able to copy over the translations too06:58
valorieI don't know much about that part06:58
valoriebasically I've ignored the docs for far too long; too busy with other stuff06:59

Freespirit-girlHi.. Last night I asked how to change my hostname.. I used the command given and then i spelled it wrong07:37
andy123sudo hostname new_hostname ?07:41
valorieconsole07:41
valorieFreespirit-girl: use your up-arrow in your console07:41
valoriewth07:41
valoriestrange connections today07:42
valorieand then the left-arrow to fix your spelling07:42
valorieand and down arrow save so much time07:42
Freespirit-girlok.. Valerie, i think i understand07:46
valorieI rarely type a new command now, just arrow up to what I want/change07:48
Freespirit-girlI normally try and use my arrows.. I found out last night i needed to restart my computer before the terminal changed.. however i got a Ubuntu error .. because i probably made the mistake you warned me about, valorie08:08
valoriewhat error is that?08:10
Freespirit-girlI cannot remember the dang error. i can restart my computer and I might get it again. will you be online?08:11
valoriesure08:11
Freespirit-girlbe eight back08:12
Freespirit-girlright08:12
valorieif you select the text, you should still have it when the computer comes back on08:12
valorieif klipper is set up correctly08:12
Freespirit-girldo you mean for the channel or the error?08:13
valoriethe error08:14
valorieif you have konversation set up to rejoin the channel automatically, you'll be right back08:14

=== seetherapy is now known as FreeSpirit-Girl
FreeSpirit-GirlI didn't get an error that time08:27
valoriecool08:28
FreeSpirit-Girlthe name before my host name.. is that my root or just the name i gave my computer?08:29
valorieit is your user name08:30
valorieso that shows YOU logged into the computer08:30
valorievalorie@valorie-HP-Pavilion-dv7-Notebook-PC:~$08:30
FreeSpirit-GirlCan i change that?08:31
valoriemy user@hp computer:home of regular (not sudo) user08:31
valoriesure, you can make a new user, and log into that08:31
valorieI don't believe you can change the name of the user though08:32
valorie!user08:32
ubottuTo add new users to your Ubuntu system, follow the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AddUsersHowto - For administrative privileges, users need to be made members of the group "sudo" - See !sudo08:32
valoriepretty sure, not absolutely sure08:32
FreeSpirit-Girloh.. It's not that big of a deal.. i dual boot08:32
FreeSpirit-GirlDo you mind if i PM you valorie?08:37
valoriehow about we use #kubuntu-offtopic?08:38

tucnakhey there! for some reason I can't get plasma5 here on my ubuntu 14.04 installation, it says that there is no such package `kubuntu-plasma5-desktop`. what could it possibly be (I followed steps from Plasma/Packages on TechBase)19:08
tucnaknot TechBase really, but Wiki, I suppose19:08
tucnakhttps://community.kde.org/Plasma/Packages#Kubuntu19:08
krytariktucnak: From there: Packages for Kubuntu Utopic ... (14.10) releases of KDE Frameworks 5 and Plasma 5 are being packaged in the next PPA.19:13
krytarikMeh, forgot to put the quotes. :P19:14
tucnakkrytarik: what'd I do if I have 14.04 here?19:15
tucnakI can't really upgrade for a specific reason19:16
krytariktucnak: Can't do anything, I'm afraid.19:16
GreylocksI'm running it on 15.04 looks good :-)19:16
w3coreHey guys, have anyone problems after last updates?19:17
tucnakkrytarik: so there are no 14.04 packages for this, right?19:18
krytariktucnak: Nope, didn't see any yet.19:18
w3coreKubuntu 14.04.1 not loading after login screen. Update installed 1 hour ago19:19
tucnakkrytarik: dat feel when Parallels still doesn't support 14.10 and the only version where you have plasma5 is 14.1019:20
Greylockstucnak: have a look here: https://community.kde.org/Plasma/Packages#Kubuntu19:22
krytarik!xhangs | w3core: Did you check this already?19:22
ubottuw3core: Did you check this already?: If the GUI hangs after logging in, use <ctrl><alt><f1> to switch to text mode. Log in and do: rm .{X,ICE}authority19:22
krytarikGreylocks: That's what we've been talking about. ;)19:22

BluesKaj_Kote, have you run dist-upgrade since installing?21:02
Kotenope21:02
KoteTry that?21:02
BluesKaj_sudo apt-get dist-upgrade might help if it's a kernel bug21:03
KoteMaybe i need to recompile a kernel, i mean download new one and compile it?21:04
KoteBluesKaj_: Its just give me 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.21:04
BluesKaj_Kote, no need to to do that21:04
