| ap0c | how can I revert a kernel update through a live install? | 12:22 |
| ap0c | I tried updating 14.04.1 LTS's kernel from 3.13.x-generic to 3.16 | 12:22 |
| tucnak | Hey there! I've got a strange issue with battery saving preferences here on Tech preview with latest plasma | 12:26 |
| soee | tucnak: this is more related to #plasma | 12:27 |
| tucnak | Basically, it keeps on blocking screen after a while, but what interesting is I have settings in Energy Saving that should preserve it from such behaviour | 12:27 |
| soee | try to ask there and maybe report some bugs | 12:27 |
| tucnak | soee: alright, thanks | 12:27 |
| hegemon8 | hello | 12:32 |
| hegemon8 | anyone is testing 15.04 ? I wonder how it performes so far, cause i'm formatting the drive soon | 12:33 |
| soee | hegemon8: im running it 4-5 weeks now and all works fine for me. There might be sometimes problems with packages updates so you must be aware of it before upgrade | 12:34 |
| hegemon8 | i used early versions before soee but plasma 5 is a bigger jump | 12:35 |
| hegemon8 | i remember switching from kde 3 to kde4 so :) thats why i ask this time :) | 12:36 |

| mparillo | I tried Startup Disk Creator on Kubuntu: Thumbdrive not bootable. I tried unetbootin on Win7 on the same Thumbdrive, and it was bootable. The MD5 checks OK. Any ideas? | 15:22 |
| BluesKaj_ | mparillo, odd, Startup Disk Creator worked just fine here a few days ago...did you reformat the usb drive or just delete the pervious data on it before running creator? | 15:37 |
| BluesKaj_ | because deleting the previous data is sufficient unless you have it partitioned | 15:37 |
| === Malsasa_ is now known as Malsasa | ||
| mparillo | BluesKaj_: Thank you. I used the Delete Data option on startup disk creator. | 15:57 |
| mparillo | It was originally created with FAT on Win7. Maybe that is the underlying issue? | 15:57 |
| BluesKaj_ | mparillo, well FAT is best for usb sticks afaik | 16:04 |
| BluesKaj_ | it is odd tho, can't think of why it wouldn't boot | 16:05 |
| BluesKaj_ | anyway, errands to do...bbl | 16:05 |

| interima | Hi i need some help. I have kUbuntu 14.04 and Nvidia 750Ti card. When i installed kubuntu (several mounth before) i add xorg-edgers/ppa and installed nvidia drivers. But now kubuntu switch to xorg mesa drivers. I don't know how it happened. I try to reinstall nvidia drivers (no effect). | 18:12 |
| BluesKaj_ | interima, remove the xorg-edgers ppa. Their support is not very good, run lspci -knn | egrep -A 3 'VGA|3D' to see which driver is actually in use , then we can go from there. | 18:20 |
| interima | BluesKaj_:http://pastebin.com/9k8Cd9fa | 18:22 |
| interima | BluesKaj_:http://pastebin.com/n1NHmrhF | 18:24 |
| BluesKaj_ | interima, dpkg -l | grep nvidia | 18:26 |
| interima | BluesKaj_: nvidia x settings show nothin (only not useful infromation) but before it shows all information | 18:26 |
| interima | BluesKaj_ | 18:26 |
| interima | BluesKaj_: nothing | 18:26 |
| interima | BluesKaj_: in output | 18:26 |
| BluesKaj_ | interima, the nvidia-331 driver is highest nvidia driver supported by 14.04, sudo apt-get install nvidia-331 | 18:28 |
| interima | BluesKaj_: wow. i will check now | 18:30 |
| interima | BluesKaj_: no effect | 18:36 |
| BluesKaj_ | explain no effect | 18:36 |
| interima | BluesKaj_: http://pastebin.com/r307FRTY | 18:37 |
| interima | BluesKaj_: seems like kernel still use gallium mesa drivers | 18:37 |
| interima | BluesKaj_: you said me delete edgers ppa (i don't delete yet) but how i can install nvidia drivers without this ppa | 18:38 |
| estacado | hi | 18:39 |
| estacado | i need some help anyone installed flashtool under kde? | 18:40 |
| BluesKaj_ | interima,the 331 driver is in the regular repository | 18:40 |
| estacado | i have done the procedure once under ubuntu | 18:40 |
| estacado | is the location of udev rules the same? | 18:41 |
| interima | BluesKaj_: so i will delete edgers ppa and install 331 from default repo | 18:41 |
| BluesKaj_ | yes | 18:41 |
| BluesKaj_ | phone...bbl | 18:41 |
| Ryon_ | is een uitvoerbaar programma. Uit veiligheidsoverwegingen zal het niet worden gestart. deze melding krijg ik wanneer ik een .exe bestand wil openen | 18:42 |
| interima | Can someone help me. i install nvidia-331 drivers but kernel still use xorg mesa drivers. | 18:59 |
| BluesKaj_ | interima , where does it say vesa drivers are in use ? | 19:11 |
| BluesKaj_ | or mesa rather | 19:11 |
| interima | BluesKaj_: glmark says that | 19:16 |
| BluesKaj_ | interima, glmark is name of the app not the nvidia driver, my laptop syas the same as your glmark, but my gpu driver is definitely the i915 intel | 19:22 |
| interima | BluesKaj_: nvidia setting shows nothing | 19:23 |
| interima | BluesKaj_: lsmod don't show nvidia driver | 19:24 |
| interima | BluesKaj_: lspci -vnn | grep -i VGA -A 12 don't show kernel driver in use | 19:25 |
| BluesKaj_ | interima, have you rebooted since installing the 331 driver? | 19:26 |
| interima | BluesKaj_: yes | 19:27 |
| BluesKaj_ | interima, lspci -nnk | grep -i vga -A3 | grep 'in use' | 19:34 |
| BluesKaj_ | interima, and another command that will list media kernel modules is, dkms status | 19:39 |
| interima | BluesKaj_:lspci -nnk | grep -i vga -A3 | grep 'in use' nothing | 19:45 |
| interima | BluesKaj_: but look at this http://pastebin.com/TYqpf9HA | 19:45 |
| BluesKaj_ | int then choose "0", 0 is the default if chosen | 19:49 |
| teisei | Hello! Anyone else experiencing a strange error message whenever you rename a file on your Desktop (Folder View)? | 19:52 |
| BluesKaj_ | interima, then choose "0", 0 is the default if chosen | 19:53 |
| interima | BluesKaj_: if i choose 0 xserver crush | 19:54 |
| BluesKaj_ | interima, do you need 14.04 LTS, I upgraded to 14.10 as soon as it was available since 14.04 was so unstable and buggy | 19:56 |
| BluesKaj_ | probly get better support for your gtx 750ti gpu on 14.10 | 19:57 |
| interima | BluesKaj_: i don't think that it can solve problem, cause everything work ok on 14.04. this happend several days ago | 19:58 |
| BluesKaj_ | then you'll have to wait til xedgers ppa is brought up to date :/ | 19:59 |
| BluesKaj_ | unless you install the proprietary driver from the nvidia website, but it will break with the next kernel upgrade, whenever that is. | 20:01 |
| teisei | Nvidia already has drivers that support kernel 3.19 out-of-the-box? | 20:01 |
| BluesKaj_ | interima, http://www.nvidia.com/download/driverresults.aspx/73666/en-us | 20:03 |
| BluesKaj_ | teisei, depends which kernel 14.04 uses nowadays | 20:04 |
| BluesKaj_ | 14.10 here is 3.16 kernel, 15.04 uses the 3.18 | 20:05 |
| teisei | Well Nvidia 346.22 works with kernel 3.18 | 20:06 |
| teisei | On the other hand, kernel 3.18 appears to be quite unstable for me compared to 3.16 | 20:07 |
| BluesKaj_ | teisei, yes , but the gtx 750 ti gpu is particularly not well supported on 14.04 | 20:07 |
| teisei | One of the high end ones? I'm using GTX 460M | 20:08 |
| teisei | Which is quite outdated already, I know | 20:08 |
| teisei | What kind of problems does the GTX 750 Ti have? | 20:08 |
| BluesKaj_ | we had the same issue with that gpu yesterday with 14.04 ...it's not a stable OS in many ways in my experience | 20:09 |
| BluesKaj_ | especially with hi-end graphics | 20:09 |
| BluesKaj_ | even my lowly nvidia 8400gs had troubles on 14.04 | 20:10 |
| teisei | What drivers did you use? | 20:10 |
| BluesKaj_ | the 319 on 14.04 , but I promptly installed 14.10 when the dev release was available and didn't have a problem after that | 20:11 |
| teisei | Did you switch from 319 to something newer? | 20:13 |
| BluesKaj_ | once the 331 driver was available, yes | 20:13 |
| BluesKaj_ | the 319 was very stable for me | 20:14 |
| BluesKaj_ | as is the 331 atm | 20:14 |
| teisei | Do you happen to be using xorg-edgers? | 20:16 |
| DarwinSurvivor | I've installed Kubuntu 14.10 (plasma 4) on a high-dpi screen (280 dpi), but it keeps getting render at 94 dpi. | 20:20 |
| DarwinSurvivor | My Google searching has resulting in many answers for Unity on 14.10 and Kde on non-ubuntu distros (where they edit files that don't exist in 14.10) | 20:21 |
| teisei | There is a way to ignore/override the DPI autodetection | 20:22 |
| DarwinSurvivor | I've done the following in /etc/X11/xorg.conf (had to create the file first): http://pastebin.com/qVimRZY4 | 20:22 |
| DarwinSurvivor | xrandr shows the corrected dimensions in the eDPI setting, but no changes are visible | 20:23 |
| DarwinSurvivor | http://pastebin.com/6am64S73 | 20:23 |
| DarwinSurvivor | I tried using Screen and Screen0 instead of Monitor, but that just causes lightdm to crash | 20:24 |
| DarwinSurvivor | Also, xdpyinfo reports "96x96 dots per inch", so somehow xdpyinfo and xrandr are getting their numbers from different places | 20:25 |
| DarwinSurvivor | I keep reading that plasma 5 has much better high-dpi support, how stable is it at this point? | 20:26 |
| DarwinSurvivor | note: this is for a family member's primary work machine, so stability is important | 20:26 |
| teisei | DarwinSurvivor, Plasma 5 appears to be quite stable for me | 20:28 |
| teisei | There are some oddities here and there but no crashes whatsoever | 20:28 |
| DarwinSurvivor | can plasma 5 and plasma 4 be run on the same machine (for testing)? | 20:29 |
| teisei | Plasma 5 seems to be much faster and smoother than any other desktop I've tried recently | 20:29 |
| Walex2_ | DarwinSurvivor: it is complicated... | 20:29 |
| teisei | DarwinSurvivor, not in the same install of Kubuntu as far as I know | 20:30 |
| Walex2_ | DarwinSurvivor: DPI calculation and setting have been screwed up by Keith Packard very comprehensively | 20:30 |
| DarwinSurvivor | can I just replace plasma 4 with plasma 5 without a full reinstall (and back again if needed)? | 20:30 |
| teisei | DarwinSurvivor, I think it's possible. They are just packages after all | 20:30 |
| BluesKaj_ | teisei, I don't use xedgers ppas. poor longterm support] | 20:30 |
| Walex2_ | DarwinSurvivor: I have a very draft blog post on DPI here: http://www.sabi.co.uk/blog/drafts2.html#140228b | 20:31 |
| teisei | BluesKaj_, yeah the support is a problem, but I'm a sucker for new features and speed improvements (also willing to sacrifice stability for performance boost) | 20:31 |
| BluesKaj_ | on 15.04 here with plsama 5/KF5 and patiently waiting for the 5.2 on jan22 | 20:32 |
| teisei | BluesKaj_, are you running kernel 3.18? | 20:33 |
| BluesKaj_ | teisei, yes | 20:34 |
| teisei | No problems with uptime? My system crashes every few hours in 3.18 | 20:35 |
| BluesKaj_ | but this laptop uses intel graphics ..my old pc/media-server with kubuntu 14.10 has the nvidia 8400gs card in it | 20:35 |
| BluesKaj_ | no problems here with crashes , just the odd freeze which is easily fixed with alt-tab | 20:37 |
| teisei | Well the Nvidia drivers from xedgers may play a role in my case | 20:37 |
| BluesKaj_ | yes, that's possible | 20:37 |
| BluesKaj_ | tried plasma 5 on the media server pc , but it was much too buggy so I reverted it back to plasma 4 | 20:39 |
| teisei | In my case the crashes were more like kernel panics | 20:39 |
| teisei | Alt-tab or any other keyboard wizardry didn't work in my case | 20:39 |
| teisei | BluesKaj_, this is a little offtopic but do you happen to have a menu key on your keyboard? | 20:41 |
| BluesKaj_ | the windows key ? | 20:43 |
| DarwinSurvivor | Thanks guys, I'll read the DPI post and if that doesn't work give plasma 5 a shot | 20:43 |
| teisei | Menu key, the one that behaves like right mouse click | 20:43 |
| teisei | Wherever your focus is | 20:43 |
| teisei | So it basically opens a menu | 20:44 |
| BluesKaj_ | no idea which key that is | 20:44 |
| teisei | http://www.laptopkey.com/uploads/1034_1388193920_ev-kb.jpg see the key between Alt Gr and Ctrl | 20:45 |
| teisei | In Xubuntu it was called "Menu" when used in keyboard shortcuts | 20:46 |
| teisei | But I was just wondering if it's hard coded in Kubuntu to open the context menu (or whatever they call it) | 20:46 |
| teisei | I find this default behaviour useless and I used to bind it to open a terminal | 20:47 |
| BluesKaj_ | it seems to open different menus depending on which app is open on top | 20:47 |
| teisei | Yes indeed it follows your focus (keyboard focus that is) | 20:47 |
| teisei | I haven't been able to locate any conf file where I could change the behaviour of this key | 20:48 |
| teisei | Quite frustrating to be honest. I was hoping some genius would've come up with a solution | 20:49 |
| teisei | Nevertheless the key is called "Menu" but it cannot be used in key bindings because it's not recognized | 20:50 |
| teisei | Maybe I could cheat the system somehow and make it appear as some other key which my keyboard doesn't physically include | 20:50 |
| BluesKaj_ | frankly, I'm more of a mouse usersince i was introduced to computers with application programs run on various analytical lab instruments which followed the msdos basics at the time, then windows 3.1 and '95// | 20:51 |
| BluesKaj_ | waaay before <i discovered linux :) | 20:51 |
| teisei | I see, I see. Maybe I'm too much of a keyboard wizard | 20:52 |
| teisei | A gamer does not simply kick his habits | 20:53 |
| BluesKaj_ | never been a gamer ..... too old I guess | 20:54 |
| teisei | Wow | 21:02 |
| teisei | I was actually able to change the behaviour of the Menu key to something else | 21:02 |
| teisei | But it's still a modifier (composer) key | 21:02 |
| teisei | I guess problems just resolve themselves when they are paid some attention to | 21:03 |
| bitemeoftn | can someone direct me to an easy way to add my exchange e-mail? | 21:09 |

| bitemeoftn | hosted exchange.....sorry i should be more specific | 21:19 |
| bitemeoftn | i.e. outlook.office365.com | 21:19 |

| romaji | Ok, I'm trying to install 14.04, and I've hit a snag | 21:26 |
| lordievader | romaji: What have you run into? | 21:26 |
| romaji | it will not let me install it onto a RAID drive that isfree | 21:26 |
| lordievader | romaji: Using the standard GUI installer? | 21:27 |
| romaji | yea | 21:27 |
| romaji | doesn't let me pick the option of that dsk | 21:27 |
| lordievader | romaji: Hmm, you might have more luck with the text-based installer that is found on the server or mini iso. | 21:27 |
| lordievader | For basic things the gui installer is fine, but for the more complex thing I prefer the text installer. | 21:28 |
| romaji | uh... is the text based installer in the desktop iso? | 21:28 |
| romaji | becuase it was hell installing this iso onto the thubdrive | 21:28 |
| lordievader | Not for as far as I know. | 21:28 |
| lordievader | romaji: Unetbootin? | 21:28 |
| romaji | Is that what getting the thing onto the drive on windows called? | 21:29 |
| romaji | Could it be fixed by putting 14.10 0n there instead? | 21:30 |
| lordievader | romaji: Unetbootin is cross platform: http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/ | 21:30 |
| romaji | yep, that's the thing | 21:30 |
| romaji | some how, the checksum checked out, but the drive didn't run for 14.10 | 21:31 |
| romaji | so, shoud I try 14.10 again, since that might have fixed the bug I have? | 21:33 |
| romaji | Um... anyone? | 21:34 |
| lordievader | romaji: What bug are you talking about? | 21:35 |
| romaji | The one where it sees my raid drive, but refuses to install to it | 21:35 |
| romaji | or, recongnise that it's there in the GUI installer | 21:37 |
| romaji | I'd call that a bug | 21:37 |
| lordievader | romaji: I'd stick with what I said, try the mini iso. | 21:37 |
| romaji | ok, where is that? | 21:38 |
| lordievader | I'd agree, do file a bug report ;) | 21:38 |
| romaji | How am I going to know which dirve is the right one? | 21:38 |
| lordievader | romaji: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD | 21:38 |
| bitemeoftn | thought i had it figured out, but still can't get my contacts or calendar to show | 21:39 |
| romaji | these are all ubuntu | 21:39 |
| bitemeoftn | trying to use this tutorial http://osdir.com/ml/kubuntu-users/2014-07/msg00124.html | 21:39 |
| lordievader | romaji: Yes, you select the Kubuntu desktop during the install. | 21:39 |
| romaji | oh, they have both? | 21:39 |
| lordievader | romaji: The mini iso is very small as it downloads everything it needs from the internet. | 21:41 |
| romaji | ok, so where do i file the bug report' | 21:42 |
| romaji | lordievader: ok, I'm ready to do that | 21:43 |
| lordievader | romaji: In a terminal: ubuntu-bug ubiquity | 21:43 |
| romaji | Right, Not on linux, so I'll need to save that | 21:44 |
| lordievader | romaji: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity | 21:45 |

| romaji | lordievader:I'm trying to find out how to get the installer to install Kubuntu | 21:52 |
| lordievader | romaji: Somewhere down the line it asks you what desktop environment you want. | 21:54 |
| romaji | Oh, in the normal install system? | 21:54 |
| lordievader | romaji: ? | 21:54 |
| romaji | like, doing the install the normal way' | 21:55 |
| lordievader | romaji: Are you talking about the mini iso or not? | 21:56 |
| romaji | lordievader:I'm in the mini iso | 21:56 |
| lordievader | romaji: Yes, there somewhere down the line it will ask you for the desktop environment. | 21:56 |
| romaji | good | 21:56 |
| romaji | Although, I haven't encountered it yet | 21:58 |
| romaji | and it''s loading aditional components | 21:58 |
| lordievader | romaji: It is one of the last things you install, which makes sense ;) | 21:59 |
| romaji | lordievader:Just asked me to activate raid | 22:00 |
| lordievader | romaji: And? | 22:00 |
| romaji | I've got to go now, I'll be back in 30 min | 22:00 |
| romaji | lordievader:It doesn't let me pick that disk | 22:01 |
| lordievader | romaji: Hmm, that is too bad. Also, I'm afraid I won't be here in 30 minutes. | 22:02 |
| romaji | I don't see why though | 22:02 |
| romaji | will someone else be? | 22:02 |
