[13:13] <BluesKaj_> Hiyas all
[16:21] <hanibana> hi, I have an external disk with some LVM partitions. The KDE Device Notifier doesn't mount this paritions when pluging the disk. Is there any workaround?
[17:19] <tucnak> hey there
[17:19] <tucnak> my latest ubuntu 14.10 with plasma5 for some reason comes to locked state after a while
[17:19] <tucnak> though energy saving settings are set to do nothing in any case
[19:19] <naftilos76> Hi, is there a dolphin plugin that lets me compress folders/files with a password?
[19:19] <naftilos76> I am on 14.04
[20:04] <nicon`> Hi all.
[20:05] <nicon`> I was using for a long time plasma5, but it stopped working (hangs during 'loading screen' after login), I decided to go back to plasma4. I reinstalled some packages, but I'm sure it's not installed completely.
[20:05] <nicon`> Can someone help me with giving packages names to install plasma4/kde4 full?
[20:06] <nicon`> Or maybe someone knows how to fix plasma5? :-)
[20:06] <nicon`> Previously removing .kde directory helped - but after my last upgrade (which I did today) it stopped helping.
[22:36] <valorie> nicon`: can you say more about what the problem was?
[22:36] <valorie> removing .kde was never a good solution; sometimes moving it was
[23:07] <nicon`> valorie: like I said, I was unable to login to plasma 5 desktop.
[23:07] <nicon`> It's hanging on login screen.
[23:08] <nicon`> So I wanted to install kde4 with plasma4.
[23:08] <valorie> so, did you say that you wanted to use SDDM when asked?
[23:08] <nicon`> I tried sddm and lightdm.
[23:08] <nicon`> It was working same way on both.
[23:08] <valorie> my guess is that you are encountering the problem I had
[23:08] <valorie> which is that they seemed to be interfering with one another
[23:08] <nicon`> But I think you misunderstund 'loading screen'.
[23:09] <nicon`> By loading screen I mean the one after dm (after login).
[23:09] <valorie> I had to purge lightdm and kdm both for sddm to work correctly
[23:09] <nicon`> sddm/lightdm are working corectly.
[23:09] <nicon`> Loading screen is after logining.
[23:10] <nicon`> It's not exactly hanging - all programs are running fine - just I can't see them and my desktop - instead I can see only loading screen.
[23:11] <valorie> is this on 14.10?
[23:15] <nicon`> valorie: yes.
[23:16] <valorie> so you were using the next ppa to get plasma 5?
[23:26] <nicon`> valorie: exactly.
[23:26] <nicon`> Or...
[23:26] <nicon`> In fact I was using just kubuntu cd with plasma55.
[23:26] <nicon`> plasma5*
[23:26] <valorie> oh, hmmm
[23:26] <nicon`> I installed it when it was released.
[23:26] <nicon`> I was using for couple weeks.
[23:26] <nicon`> And sometimes I had same problems.
[23:27] <nicon`> But moving .kde directory helped.
[23:27] <valorie> and update and full-upgrade doesn't solve the problems?
[23:27] <nicon`> After upgrading OS yesterday even moving .kde stopped helping.
[23:27] <nicon`> Yeah, it doesn't.
[23:27] <valorie> and you used full-upgrade, not dist-upgrade?
[23:27] <nicon`> I removed plasma at all and reinstalled it with instructions from kubuntu.org (so with full-upgrade), no help.
[23:27] <valorie> as the command
[23:27] <nicon`> Yes.
[23:28] <valorie> ok
[23:28] <nicon`> I used full-upgrade.
[23:28] <valorie> hmmm
[23:28] <valorie> next try `sudo apt install -f`
[23:28] <valorie> let's see if something got hosed in the install
[23:29] <nicon`> Nothing.
[23:29] <valorie> ok, next try logging into a new user
[23:29] <valorie> if it is a config problem, a new user will be fine
[23:30] <nicon`> Tried it already.
[23:30] <nicon`> Didn't helped.
[23:30] <nicon`> Previously it did (about a week ago).
[23:32] <valorie> so now you know something is fundamentally more broken, which you already suspected
[23:32] <valorie> so perhaps it is time to try purging the PPA
[23:32] <valorie> !ppa-purge
[23:33] <nicon`> Yeah, I tried this as well today :-D
[23:33] <valorie> with no luck?
[23:33] <valorie> :(
[23:33] <nicon`> No luck at all.
[23:33] <valorie> well, there are people who know much more than I do, and could perhaps help
[23:34] <valorie> however, they are either asleep or in transit
[23:34] <valorie> otoh, if your only other option is to re-install, you might try upgrading to Vivid
[23:35] <nicon`> Sure.
[23:35] <valorie> it can hardly be *more* broken
[23:35] <nicon`> For this moment I installed ubuntu-desktop.
[23:35] <nicon`> And it's ugly :-)
[23:35] <nicon`> But at least working.
[23:35] <valorie> heh
[23:36] <valorie> I've not done this yet, but here is the info I have: http://www.kubuntu.org/news/kubuntu-vivid-alpha-1
[23:37] <nicon`> Is there a way to upgrade it instead of install?
[23:37] <nicon`> Okay, found it.
[23:37] <valorie> I've been thinking of upgrading just to test, because I've heard two good reports so far
[23:37] <valorie> yes
[23:37] <nicon`> Will try, thanks.
[23:38] <valorie> please report your success or failure - I'd be very interested
[23:39] <nicon`> Where can I send report? Or should I just send update to you here?
[23:42] <nicon`> extras repo doesn't work :-)
[23:44] <valorie> extras?
[23:44] <valorie> not sure what you mean
[23:45] <valorie> and just report success/failure here, unless there are actual bugs to file
[23:45] <valorie> we need those bugs filed of course
[23:46] <nicon`> there's no http://extras.ubuntu.com/ubuntu for vivid.
[23:46] <nicon`> But distro-upgrade was trying to enable it.
[23:50] <valorie> that is certainly worth reporting, yes
[23:50] <valorie> it shouldn't be calling for/looking for something that has not yet been created
[23:52] <valorie> nicon`: do you have a login here yet? http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/milestones/328/builds
[23:52] <valorie> if so, it would be good to report there, and also link bug reports there
