[06:59] we often call it Dr. Konqui [06:59] valorie: No, it just disappears after a few seconds [06:59] :( [06:59] well, you could start it from the commandline, and watch what happens [07:00] holy cow, it works from the commandline [07:00] most stuff does [07:01] But I do get quite a few errors about misbehaving and error reading io device. I've look into it. Thanks [07:18] good morning [08:03] hi! i'm running a fresh install of kubuntu 14.10 plasma5. i'm always confused with the package i need to install to be able to see flash stuff in firefox [08:15] pepperflash I think [08:15] !info pepperflash [08:15] Package pepperflash does not exist in utopic [08:15] pfff [08:17] pepperflashplugin-nonfree [08:18] mh well i'm not sure what i did but now it seems to work...

If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience [13:23] 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] 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] 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] No, I'm using manual [13:34] Nexia, so you're choosing the ext file partition and choosing change then ext4 and then / as the mountpoint? [13:34] BluesKaj: I just deleted all of them (except swap) into free space and re-created the first time [13:35] the second time, I did what you said, just re-using each partion and setting filesystem and mountpoint [13:35] Nexia, deleted all of ? [13:36] all the existing ext4 partions like /, /home, /boot [13:38] 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] ok, I'll skip /boot, thx [13:41] BluesKaj: should it be primary or logical ? [13:41] / is always primary [13:42] oh ok [13:42] i mean in the create a new partition menu [13:45] Nexia, how many primaries do have on the HDD? [13:47] BluesKaj: 1? [13:47] * Nexia does not know [13:50] Nexia, check the partition properties [13:51] ah, I thought you were talking about both my windows and these new linux partions [13:52] yes I am [13:52] can't check that in the installer .. [13:52] there's no "partition properties" as far as I can see. [13:53] only these "add change, delete" buttons..no right click context menu eitherr [13:54] Nexia: can you press Ctrl+Alt+F1 or similar to get a shell? [13:54] you can assume it's primary if the partition is not extended or logical [13:55] can't figure how to tell that either from just looking :P [13:59] try to install to the partition you used as / , if you still have a /home then just reset the mountpoint and continue [14:01] meh, re-did them again just to be sure [14:01] 8 gigs swap first (logical), now 87 GB primary /, and rest /home logical... [14:02] ok [14:03] 87G for / is bit large , 20G is plrnty ..I ususually use 15 [14:03] errplenty [14:04] hm, no logical/primary option for / apparntly since /swap is first ... [14:05] how much ram ? [14:05] 4 GB [14:11] *hits install now button* [14:12] "Write the changes to disks?" [14:13] bleh bleh [14:13] if your logicals are under an extended then you should be fine [14:13] "The partition tables of the following devices are changed: SCSI1 (0,0,0) (sda)" [14:16] Nexia, did yoy delete your windows NTFS partition too ? [14:16] BluesKaj: not at all. [14:16] yoy=you [14:16] good [14:17] all nfts aboove the partitons remain intact [14:17] above* [14:18] Nexia, isn't your NTFS sda ? [14:19] BluesKaj: yes [14:19] also: o god, finally seems to be working [14:19] "Rerieving file 10 of 57" [14:25] wow, net really slow. 8m 34s left === kubuntu is now known as Guest8868 [14:37] 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] Oh, and of course it doesn't actually run. [14:44] have you tried it as sudo Someguyoutthere: [14:45] yossarianuk: Yes, I ran "sudo partitionmanager". [14:46] 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] Someguyoutthere: Is dbus running? [14:47] hm. [14:48] Both "kubuntu" and "root" have a running dbus-daemon [14:50] 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] 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] check there are no processes (ps aux |grep part) [14:53] then try again from the kde menu [14:54] It's not running, and it still fails from the KDE menu. [14:54] BluesKaj: so it worked, buuut [14:54] grub menu not showing up now ;-; [14:55] directly boots to Kubuntu. [14:55] Ite seem to take quite a while of give up though after to shows the error message. [14:55] I don't know what's up with that. [14:55] Nexia: hold left shift on boot to see grub menu [14:55] oh [14:55] you have to time it right - after the bios stuff... [14:56] yossarianuk: Windows 7 does not appear. [14:56] Nexia: UEFI ?/ [14:56] hm, wait, if I recall correctly, I need to run grub update or something in konsole right? [14:56] do you use UEFI ? [14:56] grub refresh* [14:56] no [14:56] sudo update-grub [14:56] ah, yes that. [14:58] Eh, "incorrect password" [14:58] I could have sworn I set it up properly :( [14:59] it usually asks for it twice [14:59] then it has to be a huge fail on my part. [15:02] BluesKaj_: what would be the easiest way to reset password? === anthonymalczanek is now known as AnthonyMalczanek [15:10] Nexia, http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/resetpassword or here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LostPassword [15:10] BluesKaj_: thanks, although I just tried this http://askubuntu.com/questions/24006/how-do-i-reset-a-lost-administrative-password [15:11] ne did it work ? [15:11] rebooting now.. [15:11] Nexia,^ [15:11] It did :) [15:11] Thanks! [15:13] nice, after running sudo update-grub, my win 7 installation now appears too. [15:13] Thanks a lot guys. === Malsasa_ is now known as Malsasa [16:18] most of my functions return as unauthorized [16:21] Noah____, which "functions" ? [16:21] BluesKaj: connecting to Wifi, mounting flash drives, etc [16:22] 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] Noah____, did you update, upgrade and dist-upgrade the packages before trying to upgrade the OS/ [16:27] 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] Noah____, it removes old versions no longer required [16:29] and you also have to disable the lts only setting in the update manager [16:29] err LTS only [16:30] BluesKaj_: That last message had me confused. Do I change it bact to LTS once I'm updated? [16:31] no [16:32] BluesKaj_ what did u mean? === mano is now known as test12wqewqd [16:34] BluesKaj_ u there? [16:34] you can update, upgrade and dist upgrade with LTS enabled , then turn it off and upgrade to 14.10\ [16:35] assuming you are using 14.04 [16:35] BluesKaj_ I was already at 14.04 [16:35] BluesKaj_ nevermind [16:35] BluesKaj_ but now I can't even connect to wif [16:35] BluesKaj_ but now I can't even connect to wifi [16:36] so what are you using atm , Noah____ ? [16:36] BluesKaj_ What is atm? so how can dist-upgrade download the packages? [16:36] at the moment [16:37] BluesKaj_ I am dual booted so I am using Windows. [16:37] Noah____, sudo apt-get dist upgrade may or may not upgrade your packages depending how recently you used the command [16:38] err dist-upgrade that is [16:38] 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] 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] Noah____, root is never a good idea. [16:40] 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] 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] BlueKaj_ after or before dist-upgrade [16:41] after [16:41] Noah____, if you have permission problem, I would say you better reinstall Linux. [16:41] Installing Linux takes ten minutes. [16:42] Graf_Westerholt, lets wait til he finishes the commands i gave him first [16:43] I think using root in a wrong way could make more trouble. [16:43] Ten minutes for a new, working Linux. [16:43] Noah____, just use your user permissions not as root [16:44] 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] Noah____, you do not need a CD/DVD, you can boot from flash. [16:44] Graf_Westerholt: same thing [16:45] Noah____, are you sure you set your PC to boot from flash? [16:45] yeah , I'm away on my other pc...makes no diff i still see the highlighted nick [16:45] Graf_Westerholt: Yep. I select flashdrive and it just boots to grub [16:46] Noah____, buy a new PC. How did you install your OS? [16:46] Graf_Westerholt: I installed kubuntu via cd. And I dont have enough money for a new pc. [16:47] Graf_Westerholt, stop that ..buy a pc [16:47] Graf_Westerholt: I don't have time to get into the boot problems. hopping over to kubuntu now [16:47] Noah____, did you do the CD/DVD/flash to boot from correctly? Not just copy the iso to it? [16:48] 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] 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] 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] Noah___, I assume your other pc is the one you are upgrading to 14.10. [17:12] BluesKaj_ Yep [17:50] d [18:00] where is Kubuntu plasma5 channel? [18:01] 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] I guess I need to know which process is responsible for drawing cursors in KDE [18:15] nescius: The Kubuntu Developers hang out on #kubuntu-devel, but you may have better luck on #kde or #plasma === kevin is now known as Guest90826 === tom_ is now known as Guest38226
