[06:55] <dewdrop> Hi, Muon Discover crashes at startup. Where could I look into to know the cause?
[06:58] <valorie> dewdrop: does the crasher report thing start up?
[06:59] <valorie> we often call it Dr. Konqui
[06:59] <dewdrop> valorie: No, it just disappears after a few seconds
[06:59] <valorie> :(
[06:59] <valorie> well, you could start it from the commandline, and watch what happens
[07:00] <dewdrop> holy cow, it works from the commandline
[07:00] <valorie> most stuff does
[07:01] <dewdrop> But I do get quite a few errors about misbehaving and error reading io device. I've look into it. Thanks
[07:18] <soee> good morning

[12:49] <sbm> can anyone help e about kubuntu connection
[12:51] <ArtooDetoo> !ask
[13:23] <Nexia> Hi , I'm getting a "[Errno 28]No space left on device" error in the Kubuntu 14.10 installer. I'm re-installing kubuntu in a dual boot for the record, and everything looks fine in he manual disk setup, but I get this error :/
[13:24] <Nexia> after that installer also crashes. (and onto of that getting a  "error: file '/grub/i386-pc/normal.mod' not found. error, so I can't access win 7 either)
[13:32] <BluesKaj> Nexia, are you using auto partitioning, if so I suggest you try manual to make sure the OS installs to the correct partition
[13:32] <Nexia> No, I'm using manual
[13:34] <BluesKaj> Nexia, so you're choosing the ext file partition and choosing change then ext4 and then / as the mountpoint?
[13:34] <Nexia> BluesKaj: I just deleted all of them (except swap) into free space and re-created the first time
[13:35] <Nexia> the second time, I did what you said, just re-using each partion and setting filesystem and mountpoint
[13:35] <BluesKaj> Nexia, deleted all of ?
[13:36] <Nexia> all the existing ext4 partions like /, /home, /boot
[13:38] <BluesKaj> Nexia, all you need is to install to / , there's no need for boot parrtition, and all you had to do with /home ios reset the mountpoint
[13:39] <Nexia> ok, I'll skip /boot, thx
[13:41] <Nexia> BluesKaj: should it be primary or logical ?
[13:41] <BluesKaj>   / is always primary
[13:42] <Nexia> oh ok
[13:42] <Nexia> i mean in the create a new partition menu
[13:45] <BluesKaj> Nexia, how many primaries do have on the HDD?
[13:47] <Nexia> BluesKaj: 1?
[13:47]  * Nexia does not know
[13:50] <BluesKaj> Nexia, check the partition properties
[13:51] <Nexia> ah, I thought you were talking about both my windows and these new linux partions
[13:52] <BluesKaj> yes  I am
[13:52] <Nexia> can't check that in the installer ..
[13:52] <Nexia> there's no "partition properties" as far as I can see.
[13:53] <Nexia> only these "add change, delete" buttons..no right click context menu eitherr
[13:54] <ArtooDetoo> Nexia: can you press Ctrl+Alt+F1 or similar to get a shell?
[13:54] <BluesKaj> you can assume it's primary if the partition is not extended or logical
[13:55] <Nexia> can't figure how to tell that either from just looking :P
[13:59] <BluesKaj> try to install to the partition you used as / , if you still have a /home then just reset the mountpoint and continue
[14:01] <Nexia> meh, re-did them again just to be sure
[14:01] <Nexia> 8 gigs swap first (logical), now 87 GB primary /, and rest /home logical...
[14:02] <BluesKaj> ok
[14:03] <BluesKaj> 87G for / is bit large , 20G is plrnty ..I ususually use 15
[14:03] <BluesKaj> errplenty
[14:04] <Nexia> hm, no logical/primary option for / apparntly since /swap is first ...
[14:05] <BluesKaj> how much ram ?
[14:05] <Nexia> 4 GB
[14:11] <Nexia> *hits install now button*
[14:12] <Nexia> "Write the changes to disks?"
[14:13] <Nexia> bleh bleh
[14:13] <BluesKaj> if your logicals are under an extended then you should be fine
[14:13] <Nexia> "The partition tables of the following devices are changed: SCSI1 (0,0,0) (sda)"
[14:16] <BluesKaj> Nexia, did yoy delete your windows NTFS partition too ?
[14:16] <Nexia> BluesKaj: not at all.
[14:16] <BluesKaj> yoy=you
[14:16] <BluesKaj> good
[14:17] <Nexia> all nfts aboove the partitons remain intact
[14:17] <Nexia> above*
[14:18] <BluesKaj> Nexia, isn't your NTFS sda ?
[14:19] <Nexia> BluesKaj: yes
[14:19] <Nexia> also: o god, finally seems to be working
[14:19] <Nexia> "Rerieving file 10 of 57"
[14:25] <Nexia> wow, net really slow. 8m 34s left
[14:37] <Someguyoutthere> Kubuntu 14.10 Live system. Attempting to run partitionmanager as root produces a warning message "No usable devices could be found. ", and emits "Error: "/var/tmp/kdecache-kubuntu" is owned by uid 999 instead of uid 0." on StdErr. What's going on, and will it persist if I install?
[14:37] <Someguyoutthere> Oh, and of course it doesn't actually run.
[14:44] <yossarianuk> have you tried it as sudo Someguyoutthere:
[14:45] <Someguyoutthere> yossarianuk: Yes, I ran "sudo partitionmanager".
[14:46] <Someguyoutthere> There is more lines to StdErr: "Object::connect: No such signal org::freedesktop::UPower::DeviceAdded(QDBusObjectPath)" and "Object::connect: No such signal org::freedesktop::UPower::DeviceRemoved(QDBusObjectPath)".
[14:47] <lordievader> Someguyoutthere: Is dbus running?
[14:47] <Someguyoutthere> hm.
[14:48] <Someguyoutthere> Both "kubuntu" and "root" have a running dbus-daemon
[14:50] <Someguyoutthere> Interestingly, attempting to run Partitionmanager without root privileges will still produce the warning message and the two "Object..." lines, but not the "Error: "/var/tmp/kdecache-kubuntu" is owned by uid 999 instead of uid 0." message on stderr.
[14:50] <Someguyoutthere> I'm not actually familiar enough with KDE/Kubuntu setups to make sense of this though, I'm more of an XFCE guy.
[14:52] <yossarianuk> check there are no processes (ps aux |grep part)
[14:53] <yossarianuk> then try again from the kde menu
[14:54] <Someguyoutthere> It's not running, and it still fails from the KDE menu.
[14:54] <Nexia> BluesKaj: so it worked, buuut
[14:54] <Nexia> grub menu not showing up now ;-;
[14:55] <Nexia> directly boots to Kubuntu.
[14:55] <Someguyoutthere> Ite seem to take quite a while of give up though after to shows the error message.
[14:55] <Someguyoutthere> I don't know what's up with that.
[14:55] <yossarianuk> Nexia: hold left shift on boot to see grub menu
[14:55] <Nexia> oh
[14:55] <yossarianuk> you have to time it right - after the bios stuff...
[14:56] <Nexia> yossarianuk: Windows 7 does not appear.
[14:56] <yossarianuk> Nexia: UEFI ?/
[14:56] <Nexia> hm, wait, if I recall correctly, I need to run grub update or something in konsole right?
[14:56] <yossarianuk> do you use UEFI ?
[14:56] <Nexia> grub refresh*
[14:56] <Nexia> no
[14:56] <yossarianuk> sudo update-grub
[14:56] <Nexia> ah, yes that.
[14:58] <Nexia> Eh, "incorrect password"
[14:58] <Nexia> I could have sworn I set it up properly :(
[14:59] <BluesKaj_> it usually asks for it twice
[14:59] <Nexia> then it has to be a huge fail on my part.
[15:02] <Nexia> BluesKaj_: what would be the easiest way to reset password?
[15:10] <BluesKaj_> Nexia, http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/resetpassword or here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LostPassword
[15:10] <Nexia> BluesKaj_: thanks, although I just tried this http://askubuntu.com/questions/24006/how-do-i-reset-a-lost-administrative-password
[15:11] <BluesKaj_> ne did it work ?
[15:11] <Nexia> rebooting now..
[15:11] <BluesKaj_> Nexia,^
[15:11] <Nexia> It did :)
[15:11] <Nexia> Thanks!
[15:13] <Nexia> nice, after running sudo update-grub, my win 7 installation now appears too.
[15:13] <Nexia> Thanks a lot guys.
[16:18] <Noah____> most of my functions return as unauthorized
[16:21] <BluesKaj_> Noah____,  which "functions" ?
[16:21] <Noah____> BluesKaj: connecting to Wifi, mounting flash drives, etc
[16:22] <Noah____> BluesKaj: I think it has to do with the fact that I was trying to upgrade to 14.10 several times but failed.
[16:26] <BluesKaj_> Noah____, did you update, upgrade and dist-upgrade the packages before trying to upgrade the OS/
[16:27] <Noah____> BluesKaj_: Yes, yes, and no. I was afraid to dist-upgrade because the last time I ran it it said it would remove key packages
[16:28] <BluesKaj_> Noah____, it removes old versions no longer required
[16:29] <BluesKaj_> and you also have to disable the lts only setting in the update manager
[16:29] <BluesKaj_> err LTS only
[16:30] <Noah____> BluesKaj_: That last message had me confused. Do I change it bact to LTS once I'm updated?
[16:31] <BluesKaj_> no
[16:32] <Noah____> BluesKaj_ what did u mean?
[16:34] <Noah____> BluesKaj_ u there?
[16:34] <BluesKaj_> you can update, upgrade and dist upgrade with LTS enabled , then turn it off and upgrade to 14.10\
[16:35] <BluesKaj_> assuming you are using 14.04
[16:35] <Noah____> BluesKaj_ I was already at 14.04
[16:35] <Noah____> BluesKaj_ nevermind
[16:35] <Noah____> BluesKaj_ but now I can't even connect to wif
[16:35] <Noah____> BluesKaj_ but now I can't even connect to wifi
[16:36] <BluesKaj_> so what are you using atm , Noah____ ?
[16:36] <Noah____> BluesKaj_ What is atm? so how can dist-upgrade download the packages?
[16:36] <BluesKaj_> at the moment
[16:37] <Noah____> BluesKaj_ I am dual booted so I am using Windows.
[16:37] <BluesKaj_> Noah____, sudo apt-get dist upgrade may or may not upgrade your packages depending how recently you used the command
[16:38] <BluesKaj_> err dist-upgrade that is
[16:38] <Noah____> BluesKaj_ If I could give the plasma shell to use root, then I could maybe connect. I'll try that, and what you said.
[16:39] <Noah____> BlueKaj_ ALso, how the update failed was this: it would go through the process. Gave me an error of unverifiable packages. clicked ok. Gave a check then a red x next to getting new packages, then closed itself.
[16:39] <Graf_Westerholt> Noah____, root is never a good idea.
[16:40] <BluesKaj_> Noah____, then run sudo do-release-upgrade to upgrade to 14.10 with LTS upgrade disabled because 14.10 is not a LTS release
[16:40] <Noah____> Graf_Westerholt: unfortunately I am having permission issues with my user so I can't even connect to wifi. I need wifi to download packages that are needed.
[16:41] <Noah____> BlueKaj_ after or before dist-upgrade
[16:41] <BluesKaj_> after
[16:41] <Graf_Westerholt> Noah____, if you have permission problem, I would say you better reinstall Linux.
[16:41] <Graf_Westerholt> Installing Linux takes ten minutes.
[16:42] <BluesKaj_> Graf_Westerholt, lets wait til he finishes the commands i gave him first
[16:43] <Graf_Westerholt> I think using root in a wrong way could make more trouble.
[16:43] <Graf_Westerholt> Ten minutes for a new, working Linux.
[16:43] <BluesKaj_> Noah____, just use your user permissions not as root
[16:44] <Noah____> BluesKaj_ OK Graf_Westerholt: Unfortunately I cannot boot from cd for some reason. :P Gonna do what BluesKaj_ said. BTW: BluesKaj_ you still have a BluesKaj session and tab complete always goes to that.
[16:44] <Graf_Westerholt> Noah____, you do not need a CD/DVD, you can boot from flash.
[16:44] <Noah____> Graf_Westerholt: same thing
[16:45] <Graf_Westerholt> Noah____, are you sure you set your PC to boot from flash?
[16:45] <BluesKaj_> yeah , I'm away on my other pc...makes no diff i still see the highlighted nick
[16:45] <Noah____> Graf_Westerholt: Yep. I select flashdrive and it just boots to grub
[16:46] <Graf_Westerholt> Noah____, buy a new PC. How did you install your OS?
[16:46] <Noah____> Graf_Westerholt: I installed kubuntu via cd. And I dont have enough money for a new pc.
[16:47] <BluesKaj_> Graf_Westerholt, stop that ..buy a pc
[16:47] <Noah____> Graf_Westerholt: I don't have time to get into the boot problems. hopping over to kubuntu now
[16:47] <Graf_Westerholt> Noah____, did you do the CD/DVD/flash to boot  from correctly? Not just copy the iso to it?
[16:48] <Noah____> Graf_Westerholt: Yes i did. If I hadn't it wouldn't have booted. I have had Kubuntu for months now. hopping over to kubuntu now
[16:49] <BluesKaj_> Noah____, use dd to copy the image to usb http://askubuntu.com/questions/59551/how-to-burn-a-iso-to-a-usb-device
[17:11] <Noah___> BluesKaj_ I am here on another computer. A new problem arose. I am using this for a while and then I will go back to my other computer.
[17:12] <BluesKaj_> Noah___, I assume your other pc is the one you are upgrading to 14.10.
[17:12] <Noah___> BluesKaj_ Yep
[17:50] <De8dSh0t> d
[18:00] <nescius> where is Kubuntu plasma5 channel?
[18:01] <nescius> I have installed it to test my issues with uhd screen, they fixed it there already.. but I have a problem now where my cursor disapears untill restart of X server, this happens seldom but KDE is then unusable.
[18:02] <nescius> I guess I need to know which process is responsible for drawing cursors in KDE
[18:15] <mparillo> nescius: The Kubuntu Developers hang out on #kubuntu-devel, but you may have better luck on #kde or #plasma
